NEW RESIDENTS

. WELCOME NEW RESIDENT LINDA COHEN Linda grew up in Brooklyn and graduated from Brooklyn College, where she majored in English. She married after college, and as her husband completed graduate work in different cities she attended college programs that interested her. When Linda and her husband lived in Providence, Rhode Island, she completed a master’s degree in teaching at Rhode Island College. Many years later when they lived in Lower Merion, she earned a second master’s degree in library science at Villanova University. For 15 years Linda worked as the librarian in the lower school of Episcopal Academy. She expanded the library’s role to function as a class with projects and report card grades. She developed assembly programs, bringing authors to talk about their books. Many years ago one of Linda’s daughters had a pen pal in Norway. By the time she finished college this friendship had blossomed into marriage. The couple lives south of Oslo, and over the years Linda has made 34 trips there to visit with them and her two grandchildren. Linda has another daughter and one grandchild who live in a suburb. For exercise Linda swims every morning for an hour and water walks for another hour. She has always enjoyed reading. Her particular interest is biographies. — Doris Rosenman

WELCOME NEW RESIDENT KATHLEEN (KATHY) MOYER Kathy Moyer’s working career began as a car hop when she was 14 and ended last November, when she retired as organist at Christ Lutheran Church in Upper Darby. Her real work was as a professor of sociology at Holy Family University in northeast Philadelphia, where she taught for 25 years, but her fun “job” was as a volunteer member for 25 years of the Singing City Chorus. Kathy was born in Myerstown, , and was graduated from Albright College. She received her master’s degree in sociology from Penn State, and her Ph.D. in sociology from . She was married to a minister, Ivan Moyer Jr., in 1957 and was divorced in 1994. They had two children, a daughter who lives in Havertown, and a son who, unfortunately, died in 2008. As a member of Singing City Choir (which still performs), Kathy went on several “wonderful, exciting trips” — to Israel and Jordan in the early ‘70s, to Israel and Egypt in the mid-‘80s, and finally, to Russia in ‘90-‘91. They were invited to Tel Aviv by Zubin Mehta, and there they gave the first performance of “The Messiah” ever done in Israel. Their performance of Mozart’s “Requiem” in Leningrad was the first that was sung there since the 1917 Revolution. At the end of her academic career, Kathy won a Lindback Award for excellence in teaching and was named an emeritus professor. She hears from many of her former students, and she still loves to make music. — Janet Graff

WELCOME NEW RESIDENT JOHN ROBINSON Jack grew up in the town of Seaford in the southwest corner of Delaware. After graduating from high school, he attended the University of Delaware, and at the start of World War II he left college to join the U.S. Navy. With the rank of Captain, he commanded a mine sweeper in the South Pacific. After the war Jack earned a degree in business at the University of Delaware. He worked for the Atlantic Refining Company, where he was the assistant sales manager. He later became vice-president of a subsidiary of Atlantic Refining. When plastics were developed as an important manufacturing material, Jack began his own business of selling plastic pallets, which replaced wooden ones. They were new to

the market and available in all sizes and colors. His business expanded to include plastic containers of all sizes. He dealt with Union Carbide and then Monsanto for his products. Jack moved to the Quadrangle from Rosemont, where he lived for 60 years. He has one son who is a pilot for United Air Lines. He enjoys playing bridge, chess, and golf. Jack’s wife, who died last year, was a girlhood friend of Grace Kelly’s. One of the many interesting stories Jack tells is about their dinner invitation to the palace in Monaco before the Grand Prix. — Doris Rosenman

WELCOME NEW RESIDENT SAMUEL ROSEN Although he is a new resident, Sam has taken the initiative to form an investment group at the Quadrangle He says he is interested in discussing how retirees can mitigate loss and increase growth to have their money last for their lifetimes. If you would like to join the group, contact him for more information. Except for the years when he was working on his doctorate, Sam has always lived and worked in Philadelphia. After graduating from Northeast High School, he majored in chemistry at Temple University and earned both bachelor’s and master’s degrees. At the University of Delaware he earned his doctorate in the field of organic chemistry. Sam worked for 32 years as a chemist and toxicologist in the Philadelphia Medical Examiner’s Office. Poison control was also part of that office, and several times he testified in court cases about his findings. He retired as Assistant Chief Toxicologist. After his wife’s death last year, Sam’s children urged him to move from his home in northeast Philadelphia to the Quadrangle. He has a daughter who lives nearby, a son, and two young grandchildren. Sam is a sports fan and a strong supporter of the Phillies and the Eagles. He is also interested in reading and discussing current events. After many years, he has begun to play chess again. — Doris Rosenman

WELCOME NEW RESIDENT THERESA LEE If you need an extra incentive to visit Fibber McGee and Molly’s Closet, you might find it in the virtual art gallery that adorns the walls along that hallway. The art is the work of Theresa Lee, who lives just across the hall from Fibber and who excels in both painting of many styles and needlework. Theresa, who was born in Nanjing, China, and later lived in Taiwan — her father was a general under Chiang Kai-shek — is an acclaimed needlework designer who has designed rugs for the likes of Barbra Streisand and the DuPonts. From 1974 to 2008, she owned and operated Lee’s Needle Art in Pennsauken, New Jersey. After graduating from Taiwan Normal University, Theresa won a scholarship to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the University of Pennsylvania, where she received an M.F.A. degree. She is married to Ying K. Lee, now a resident of Oak. He sustained a severe fall, after which he required much rehab. Tired of commuting from Center

City to visit him here, Theresa decided to move to a large apartment at The Quadrangle in the hope that her husband can eventually join her. The Lees have a son in Knoxville, Tennessee, and two daughters in this area, plus five grandchildren. Ying Lee was with the DuPont Company for 35 years. He was the chief scientist in automotive products for the company in Philadelphia. — Janet Graff

WELCOME NEW RESIDENTS CAROLYN WOOD AND NEIL KAUFMAN Carolyn Wood was born in Stoke-on-Trent, England, and came to the U.S. in 1968 to work at the British Consulate in Philadelphia. She met her husband, Neil Kaufman, on a blind date, and the two were married in 1976. They moved here from Narberth, where they had lived for 30 years. Carolyn received a B.A. with honors from Manchester University. She majored in American Studies, and, of course, she wanted to come to America. After a year at the consulate (which closed), she took a job as secretary to Harold Rosenbluth of the Rosenbluth Travel Agency. This started a career of jobs in the travel field — including Lufthansa Airlines, Gil Travel, and Friendly Planet — ending in 2012. Carolyn said she enjoyed her work very much; she felt she was helping people make their dreams come true. Neil was born in Philadelphia and received a B.S. in chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh and a master’s in physics from the University of Pennsylvania. Torn between physics and chemistry, he got his Ph.D. in chemical physics from Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute, now part of NYU. Neil taught physics, chemistry, and math in the Philadelphia Public Schools from 1975 to 1984, then taught math for three years at Episcopal Academy. He then took a job as a physicist at the U.S. Naval Air Development Center at Warminster, Pennsylvania. When the facility closed, he returned to the Philadelphia Public Schools, teaching at Girls’ High and Central High from 1997 to 2002, when he retired. He said he enjoyed teaching challenging subjects to enthusiastic students. Neil is a classic movie buff and a football and baseball fan, and he is playing chess here. Carolyn still enjoys cooking and is a gardener. — Janet Graff

LIBRARY NEWS We love to have our residents borrow books, but when you do, PLEASE check them out properly. Always remove the card inside the pocket of the book, write today’s date on the card (there is a calendar on the desk to help you), sign your name and apartment number and drop the card into the slotted box. The ivory and red slips are for your convenience, to remind you of the date the book will be due. For a two-week borrowing (new books, DVDs, Readers Group) take a red slip. For all other material take an ivory slip (four weeks). These directions are also written on top of the slotted box on the desk. Lately some popular new books have been 500 to 700 pages long, and it is difficult to finish them in two weeks. You can renew one of these books for another two weeks, provided no other resident is waiting for it. Just call the Library desk — Monday through Sunday from 10 to 12, or Monday through Friday from 2 to 4 — and ask the desk librarian to renew it for you. If you need a broader variety for your reading, every Thursday morning at 10:00 a.m. a Quadrangle van has been going to the Haverford Township Library, and it returns for pick up at 11:30 a.m. If you do not have a card for the Haverford Township Library, you can get it right there and take out book(s) immediately. We hope that some of you will take advantage of this special opportunity. We have added some “local” DVDs to our collection. The presentation of the play “The “Silver Dress,” written by Sally Porter and her sister Ellen Rich, and presented on November 14, 2014, is now available. Shortly we will have DVDs of some presentations of Script in Hand productions directed by Pat Eames. These “local” DVDs are stored on the low shelf under “Quadrangle Matters.” — Mary-Ann Reiss, Chair, Library Committee

LOW VISION TREASURES Our Quadrangle Library contains an Optelec Video Magnifier, which consists of a moveable illuminated platform on which text is placed and an overhead CCTV camera that transmits its output to a video monitor situated above it. The magnifier, frequently referred to as the “Reader,” has now been upgraded with funds from the QRA. The monitor now sits directly above the stage on which reading material is placed and its height can be easily adjusted. This arrangement makes it much easier to know where your hand is and thus much easier to point to something on the page and to write under magnification. The Reader also includes features such as variable magnification and reverse contrast, which offers white print on black background or black print on white background. This choice makes reading easier for those with macular degeneration. There are two shelves in the Library in the last alcove on the left, just before the DVD collection, which contain books, recent publications, information about products and other resources available for people with low vision. Most are free to take away and some may be borrowed. They are so marked. Also available are large-print books and CDs, as you enter the Library on the left. Librarians are available for assistance, as are Jack Nachmias and Lee Sharpe.

WHAT IS THIS THING CALLED LOVE? FROM THE WRITERS GROUP A familiar old popular song asks, ”What is this thing called love?” Members of our Writers Group will give their answers to that question in a program of readings from their writings on Valentine’s Day, Saturday, February 14, at 7:30 p.m. in the Auditorium. In a number of instances, the love they write of strays far from what composer Cole Porter undoubtedly had in mind when he penned his song. In prose and poetry, fiction and memoir, the Writers Group has chosen to look at many different kinds of love. Yes, romantic love, traditional Valentine’s fare, will be represented in the readings. Cupid’s arrows do, after some deflection, eventually hit their marks in four members’ stories of meeting their spouses. However, others will read about love of pets and of places, of mothers and of sons, of grandchildren born and unborn. On a sad note, there are remembrances of losing a loved one, of love that lingers. In a humorous vein, there is a memoir of pre-teen raging hormones and unrequited lust, and another of a mother’s matchmaking attempts unmet, the blind date that was not meant to be. Writers Group members reading their works will be Bea Blackman, Laura Blake, Anne Fox, Ruth Gerstenhaber, Marvin Macnow, Dickie Miller, Letta Schatz, Lee Sharpe, Peter Stern, Ed Wodka, and Anne Wood.

The Writers Group is a supportive group that meets twice a month, on the second and fourth Friday. It is open to all residents interested in writing in any genre, whether fiction, memoir, essay, or poetry. Every year, some of their best writings are printed in their annual publication, Quadrant, and also shared in these programs of Readings. . — Letta Schatz, Chair, Writers Group

SATURDAY NIGHT PROGRAMS COMMITTEE EVENTS FOR FEBRUARY Two unusual Saturday Night Programs Committee events are planned for February. On the 21st, Ryan Ferguson and Janice Carissa will give us a program of four-hand piano music. Those who were at the concert when Ryan played the Shostakovich Piano Quintet last April may remember the brief sample of the two playing together after the end of that concert. On the 28th we will be entertained by the Notables–-The ’s great a capella group. — Kurt Reiss, Co-Chair, Saturday Night Programs

POETRY GROUP PROGRAM: THE BLACK EXPERIENCE In honor of Black History month, the Poetry Group presents “The Black Experience.” The program will be held on Tuesday, February 24, at 7:30 p.m. in the Auditorium. — Ceil Frey, Co-Chair, Poetry Group

THURSDAY NIGHT LECTURES LITIGATING FOR HUMAN RIGHTS VICTIMS By Robert Swift, attorney with Kohn, Swift & Graf Thursday, February 12, at 7:30 p.m. in the Auditorium Robert Swift will speak about a groundbreaking human rights case he litigated on behalf of 10,000 Filipino human rights victims against the former President of the Philippines, Ferdinand Marcos. A jury in Hawaii awarded the victims $2 billion. Collecting the money from the Marcos family after Ferdinand’s death proved difficult because the Marcos wealth was carefully concealed with the help of Swiss bankers. The money Swift was able to collect was distributed to the victims in 2011 and 2014. Swift and Professor Emeritus Douglas Davis will describe their distribution of compensation to victims in 2014. Poignant and compelling photographs of the victims taken by a Filipino photographer, Tony Oquias, will be shown during the presentation. Robert Swift is a pioneer in human rights litigation and a Director of the law firm Kohn Swift & Graf. He is the author of numerous articles on human and civil rights litigation and the winner of awards for his work as a trial attorney. He graduated from Haverford College in 1968 and from New York University School of Law in 1973. —Sue Stuard, For the Thursday Night Lectures Committee

NO PLACE LIKE HOME: PAST ALTERNATIVES FOR THE ELDERLY IN NINETEENTH CENTURY PHILADELPHIA By Terry Snyder, Librarian of the College at Haverford College Thursday, February 5, at 7:30 p.m. in the Auditorium In the nineteenth century, community residences emerged as an important living alternative for elder members of society. Known as Old Age Homes, they offered both opportunities and challenges for aging men and women. Philadelphia, in particular, offered more “homes” than any other city. This talk will outline the need for, organization of, and life lived in these Philadelphia residential alternatives of the past. The talk will focus on the experiences of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century. Collectively we can consider these vignettes of the past and identify some patterns of the continuity and of points of divergence. Terry Snyder is Librarian of the College at Haverford College. She is also a Visiting Associate Professor of History at Haverford; last semester she taught a course titled “Old Age in the Modern Age.” Terry also teaches in the Graduate Museum Studies Program at the University of Delaware. — Sue Stuard, For the Thursday Night Lectures Committee

READERS GROUP The 1893 novel by Stephen Crane — Maggie, A Girl of The Streets — is the second in our series devoted to “Coming to America–The Less-Told Story.” It is a brief and intense novel by an accomplished American author that relates a tough tale of immigrant life in an 1880’s American city. Readers in those days wondered whether heredity or circumstances determined the characters’ melancholy fates. What do you think? Harriet Ball will present this work at 3:30 p.m. in the Auditorium on the second Tuesday of the month, our usual meeting time. Readers and even mere auditors are cordially invited to share in this event. —Madelyn Gutwirth and Ceil Frey, Co-Chairs, Readers Group

IN SEARCH OF BURGERS AND BEER The academic environment of The Quadrangle is inescapable as is the sense of community. When we two residents decided we wanted to expand our beer and hamburger horizons, we realized we needed to undertake evidence-based research and write a well-documented report that we would share with our fellow residents. We carefully considered the scope of our project: to determine which beer pub within five miles of The Quadrangle was the best. We decided we would judge the establishments we surveyed on the variety and quality of the beer, the juiciness and flavor of the hamburger, the crispiness of the fries, parking, service and, last, but definitely not least, the general ambience.

“General ambience” would include the number of televisions, the number of diners, comfort and height of chairs and tables, decor and noise level. We would then create a spreadsheet to record all our data and we would weight the categories: food (burgers and fries) 40%; beer 20%; parking l0%; service 15% and ambience l5%. After looking on line and checking with staff member J. P. and former faculty and staff from Haverford and Bryn Mawr Colleges, we figured out which pubs should be in our study. The list included: Hykel’s (2704 E. County Line Rd., Ardmore), Oakmont (31 E. Eagle Rd., Havertown), John Henry’s (98 Cricket Ave., Ardmore), Roach and O’Brien (560 W. Lancaster Ave., Haverford), Gillane’s (43 Cricket Ave., Ardmore), The Grog (863 W. Lancaster Ave., Bryn Mawr), McCloskey’s Tavern (17 Cricket Ave., Ardmore), Kelly’s Taproom (1107 E. Lancaster Ave, Bryn Mawr), The Crossbar (2225 E. Darby Rd., Havertown), Jack McShea’s (34 E. Lancaster Ave., Ardmore), The Pub of Penn Valley (863 Montgomery Ave., Narberth) and, finally, Brick and Brew (2138 Darby Rd., Haverford). Cricket Avenue in Ardmore is the place for pubs. We really enjoyed McCloskey’s. In fact, we, like others, consider it the best pub around. It’s pure pub —no restaurant attached—with a big window in the front that opens onto the Avenue. Our understanding is there are lines outside at dinner time. They do a mean, quick burger, good fries, provide nice wait staff and most any sort of beer one might fancy. McCloskey’s also has a dining card that’ll allow you a free meal after so many goes. At John Henry’s if you’re short, a staff person will haul you, with grace, onto a high stool. Gillane’s features a painting by J.P., who works at our Grill. If, on the other hand, you yearn for ten TVs, hop over to McShea’s on Lancaster Avenue. Or, if you fancy tough burgers, they’re featured at what used to be a Haverford faculty watering hole, Roach and O’Brien on the eastern edge of Lancaster in Haverford. Maybe the current faculty still favors it. Havertown’s Brick and Brew, dubbed a “Gastro” Pub, is more upscale - also more expensive. It has a vast menu and is well worth a visit. Our conclusions are threefold: there is no dearth of decent pubs in the area, checking out pubs is fun, and we really enjoy the research. In fact, we are already considering our next project. Stay tuned. If you are interested in learning more about the pubs in the area, we’ll be happy to give you a copy of our spreadsheet. Simply call or send an e-mail. — Marion Malakoff and Jane Unkefer

SOCIAL ISSUES FEBRUARY PROGAM Social Issues, joined by the Committee on Governmental Affairs (COGA), will host Shira Goodman, Executive Director of CeaseFirePA, on Wednesday, February 25, at 4 p.m. in the Auditorium. Ms Goodman will talk about the work of CeaseFire and bring us up to date since the passage of the new state law granting standing to individuals and groups who object to gun safety. CeaseFirePA is a state-wide coalition of mayors, police chiefs, faith leaders, community organizations, and individual Pennsylvanians working together to take a stand against gun violence. Through outreach, education, coalition building, and advocacy the organization works to reduce gun violence in our communities, stop the flow of illegal guns, and keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them Shira Goodman had a career in labor law and worked with Pennsylvanians for Modern Courts before becoming Executive Director of CeaseFirePA. — Jane Hovde
