He found the available chess Apps cumbersome and glitchy,so he taught himself the latest Apple programming languageand got to work creating a better product. Simplifying the time-consuming and difficult process of digging up competitor’sinformation, Fetell’s App scrapes the US Chess database forplayer information and history—tournament participation,points, wins, loses, draws and opponent rating.

His App passed the rigorous Apple requirements and standards, and, in the first fewweeks in the App Store, it had over 100 downloads and four zealous, five-star reviews. “Making the App was a great way for me to learn more about programming while, at thesame time, doing something that is useful for all chess players,” says Fetell. “Also, I’vedeveloped a really broad skill set for programming, so now I can do many more things.” Heis currently working on a social media App.At GFS, Fetell is developing the competitive chess team and working with younger kidsto foster a love of chess and programming. “I really like working with younger kids,” he says.“Programming is a way of thinking that combines creativity and the ability to apply that tomaking something concrete. That is valuable, especially if you can start [programming] ata really young age.”He wants other kids benefit from chess, as he has. He says, “Chess taught me disciplineand how to look ahead—you always have to picture the end game, and I think that appliesa lot in life. Also, you have to be prepared to win or lose and if you go down you can’t giveup, you have to keep going.”

American Popular Sheet Music, 1800-1970s: Secrets, Fears,Pleasures and Hopes about Growing Old

What American popular sheet music has to say about old age in America from 1800 to the 1970s is the topic ofElias Cohen’s Hassel Adult Education lecture.

His talk is based on thealmost 700 pieces of sheet music on old age he has collected over the past 25 or so years.

On Friday, April 25, 2014, the Child Protection Programat St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children will host the

second annual Child Abuse Prevention Conference, titled“What Can I Do?” Putting Child Abuse Prevention into thePractice. The conference is open to professionals who workwith children and will be held in the DiGeorge Auditoriumat St. Christopher’s, located at 3601 A Street in Philadelphia.

According to Maria McColgan, MD, Medical Director of theChild Protection Program and Attending Physician at St.Christopher’s, the goal of the conference is to present ChildAbuse Prevention as a public health issue and to explore

ways that practitioners can address Adverse Childhood Ex -periences (ACE’s) and toxic stress in every day practice. Thiseducational conference will help increase community sup-port and help prevent child abuse and neglect.

As April is nationally recognized as Child Abuse Preven -tion month, the Child Protection Program at St. Christo pher’swill also celebrate its 10 year anniversary during the con-ference. At this time, an award ceremony will be held to rec-ognize Angelo P. Giardino, MD and his contribution to launch -ing the Child Protection Program.

St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children to Host Child AbusePrevention Conference and Celebrate 10 Years

Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is hosting the 7th annual National Service Dog Eye Exam eventsponsored by the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and Merial.

On May 6, 8, 12-16 and 21, Penn Vet’s Dr. Gustavo Aguirre, professor of ophthalmology;Dr. William Crumley, staff ophthalmologist; and Dr. Stephen Gross, staff ophthalmologist,will join 190 ACVO board-certified ophthalmologists conducting eye examinations across thecountry.

The ACVO/Merial National Service Dog Eye Exam is a philanthropic effort generously pro -vided to the public by the board-certified Diplomates of the American College of VeterinaryOphthalmologists, who donate their time and services to provide free ocular exams to quali -fied service animals.

As a way to serve dogs who dedicate their lives to serving us, these exams are free to reg-istered service dogs across the United States and Canada. Through these efforts, service doghealth can be improved and potential disease averted.

How to Make an AppointmentTo qualify, animals must be “active working animals” that were certified by a formal train-

ing program or organization or currently enrolled in a formal training program. The certi-fying organization can be national, regional, or local in nature.

1. Owners/agents for the animal(s) must FIRST register the animal via an online registra-tion form at www.ACVOeyeexam.org. Registration ends April 30.

2. Once registered online, the owners/agents will receive a registration number and willbe allowed access to a list of participating ophthalmologists in their area.

3. Owners/agents may then contact Ryan Hospital’s appointment desk (215-746-8387) toschedule an appointment

What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-

ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.

The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

What did it mean to our

grandparents? What will it

mean to our grandchildren?

WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR

ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set

out to discover new lives for themselves, along

with all of the liberties the free world had to

offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,

how did our parents adapt their Judaism

to the developments of a modern age?

And what can we learn from their

struggles, in order to connect

more deeply with our own

Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown

Friends School celebrated National Library

Week by asking library visitors (students, em -

ployees, parents and community members) to

share how libraries have changed their lives.

“It has been so much fun to hear all of the

different stories,” says library assistant Kath -

ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign

and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide

hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.

The stories included a high-school student

recalling memorizing her library card number

before she knew her phone number, a pre school -

er writing that reading books about dinosaurs

makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -

saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream

of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are

discovered in libraries and libraries provide a

path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.

Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,

says, “Libraries are a place to connect your

knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -

yond the library walls; and a much-needed place

for some peace

and quiet.”

At the FFL, the

staff assists com -

munity mem-

bers with com-

puter skills, writ -

ing resumes and

filling out job

applications.

The also get to

know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in

building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless

resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

direct – only the number was misprinted. Instead of reaching Santa, the phone rang throughto the Crew Commander on duty at the Continental Air Defense Command Operations Center.Thus began the tradition, which NORAD carried on since it was created in 1958.

He flees town, meets upwith new friends Hermey and Yukon, and a series of funny and endearing adventures ensue,including a visit to The Island of Misfit Toys.

What happens when you put 50 middle school boys in a room together with hundredsof snack foods at the end of the school day? Well what looks and sounds like chaos, can

turn out to be a very successful community service project.That’s what happened when Devon Prep’s Christian Action Program (CAP) organized

“Brown Bag Bonanza” for the school’s sixth, seventh and eighth graders on a recent after-noon. The goal was to assemble as many snack bags as possible for Safe Harbor HomelessShelter in West Chester. The result was over 500 bags filled with oatmeal packets, nutragrainbars, granola bars, peanut butter crackers pretzels, etc., and a new appreciation for help-ing the needy.“Many homeless shelters serve two meals a day and at very specific times,” said Mrs. Eliza -

beth Eshleman, moderator of CAP. “There are times when someone might come to the shel-ter but have missed meal time. ‘Brown Bag Bonanza’ was created so that shelters can offersomeone a snack bag to provide them with nourishment to get them to the next meal.”According to Eshleman the project was a fun, easy way to get the energetic and enthusi-

astic Middle School students involved in giving back to the less fortunate. The boys agreed.“I participated because it was a good thing for a great cause,” said Seventh Grader AndrewRanaudo of Malvern. Fellow seventh grader Ryan Bill of Phoenixville thought the project was“was chaotic but in a good way.”Eshleman and six of the students delivered the snack bags to Safe Harbor where they were

greeted by Mr. Glenn Fricke, Safe Harbor CEO. Fricke gratefully accepted their donationsand even gave the boys a tour of the shelter. Although preparing the bags helped all the stu -dents become aware of the existence of the homeless in Chester County, for the six whodelivered the bags the need became a reality.“By having this first-hand experience and learning about all the good that volunteers do

for their operation, the boys’ eyes were opened to how our fun service project impacts thegreater good,” explained Eshleman. “Since our visit, some of the delivery helpers have goneback to their Boy Scout troops to create their own project to help Safe Harbor. They are help -ing to spread the word about the importance of helping the less fortunate.”One of those spreading the word is Colin Fulmer of Broomall. The eighth grader said he

participated in the service pro -ject because “I always feel goodwhen I give back to the com-munity and those less fortu-nate. Touring the homeless

shelter I got to see so manydonations from different peo-ple which inspires me to domore to give back to the com-munity.” Fulmer is also considering building shelving for the men’s quarters at Safe Harboras part of his future Eagle Scout project.Safe Harbor (http://www.safeharborofgwc.org/) is a non-profit charitable organization

whose mission is to provide shelter, food and access to support services in a structuredenvironment for homeless single men and women in Chester County. Although the shelterhas sleeping facilities for 20 men and 20 women the shelter feeds many others daily.Devon Prep is a private, Catholic, college preparatory school for young men in grades six

to 12, conducted by the Piarist Fathers. Devon Prep students hail from Chester, Delaware,Montgomery and Bucks counties as well as parts of Philadelphia.

NEW YEAR’S EVE FAMILY JAMContinued from front page

The American Red Cross encourages individuals and organizations to give something thatmeans something this winter by making a lifesaving blood donation or hosting a blood

drive.Blood donations often decline from now to New Year’s Day when holiday festivities pull peo-

ple away from their donation appointments. Seasonal illnesses, such as colds and the flu,can also have a serious impact on blood donationsIn addition, there are fewer blood drives during the winter months when many hosting

organizations postpone drives while people are traveling for the holidays. Severe winterweather may also cause scheduled blood drives to be canceled. Despite the busy holiday season and threat of extreme freezing weather, the need for blood

remains steady. Organizations can help by hosting a blood drive during the winter months,and eligible donors are encouraged to make an appointment to give blood. Donors with allblood types are needed, especially those with types O negative, B negative, A negative andAB blood. Visit www.redcrossblood.org to learn more about hosting a blood drive. To make an

appointment to donate blood, download the free Red Cross Blood Donor App from app stores,visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). Donors can now use theBlood Donor App to access their donor card and view vital signs from previous donations.

The Nelly Ber-

man School

of Music (NBS)

will hold a mem-

orial concert in

memory of gifted

violin student,

Chanlan Lee, on

January 23, 2009

at 7 p.m. Chanlan

Lee, age 8, pass-

ed away on Dec-

ember 19 due to

a severe case of

viral encephali-

tis. He was the

youngest schol-

arship student

at the Nelly Ber-

man School of

Music and quite

an accomplished

violinist for his

young age.

Chanlan had a

deep passion for

music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved

in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and

intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he

was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage

at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden

Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was

also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-

ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

pays homage to such women,

and includes personal corre-

spondence and private jour-

nals of Abigail Adams, Martha

Jefferson, Dolley Madison, and

Sacajawea, among others.

Given annually, the Ivy Young

Willis Award recognizes women

who have made outstanding

contributions in the field of

public affairs.

The American Women in Radio

and Television cited Roberts as

one of the 50 greatest women

in the history of broadcasting,

and the Library of Congress

named her a “Living Legend,”

making her one of a select group

of Americans to have attained

that honor. A member of the

Broadcasting and Cable Hall of

Fame, Roberts also serves on

the boards of several non-prof-

it institutions and on the Presi-

dent’s Commission on Service

and Civic Participation.

Ivy Young Willis was a pio-

neer in teaching and reading

on television, and served on

The League of Women Voters

and the World Affairs Council.

Past recipients of the award

include Lisa Nutter, president

of Philadelphia Academies, Inc.;

Kathleen McGinty, former sec-

retary of the Pennsylvania
