POTPOURRI PLUS

For a breath of fresh air today will be very limited in local political news. Instead; thank goodness baseball spring training has started although not official yet.

The pitiful Mets may be interesting to watch at times. AS one who went to the Polo Grounds to see Marvelous Marv , and Choo-choo Coleman etc. I have always had a fondness for the Mets. That probably is because I was always a 'Wait until Next Year" Brooklyn Dodger fan, Watch their games on my 5" Black and white Dumont TV. This was the team of Jackie Robinson and Plainfield's Joe Page (spelling?). A;so Duke Snider the least appreciated of New York's three great center fielders.

The Knicks suddenly have a marketable exciting guard. Two plus more weeks before March Madness. There will be plenty to watch for a couch potato.

Have you read the commentaries this past week and Mark Spivey's article in Thursday's Courier. If you are truly concerned about this land of OZ, all are required reading.

I am concerned about the number who felt that the mayor did wrong but the Council should not have made any issue of it. This is the type thinking that permitted the Arab dictatorships to flourish for so many years.

A final thought about the old cliche; Do as I say not as I do". Mapp should have for ethical reasons reclused himself from any recent votes on appointments to the PMUA. Tish tish.
