On Tuesday evening, June 12th, the following 7^th graders, from the Kershaw School, Mount Ephraim, presented Power Point presentations on the Human Body Corporation.

They include: Gina Michael, Lauren Greenwood, Nicholas Duffy, Matthew Rowand, Ryan McErlane, Miranda Mistalski, Gregory Harris, Alaina Chambers, Amanda Pescatore, Jessica Pescatore, Brittany Loughlin, Matthew Henderson, Kaitlyn Alibrando and Breanna Sheldon.

They portrayed an interesting take on several organs of the human body, their characteristics, and gave an explanation of why each is so important to the Human Body Corporation.

What I can\’t understand is how starting pitcher Zach Braddock, outfielder/first baseman Michael Brantley, outfielder Chuckie Caufield and third baseman Taylor Green were left off the South Atlantic League All-Star team. Braddock played baseball at Gloucester Catholic and for the Brooklawn American Legion.

Consider:

N Braddock owns a 3-1 record and 1.21 earned run average with 66 strikeouts compared to 14 walks in 44 2/3 innings. Opponents are hitting .166 against him. He doesn\’t have enough innings pitched because of his recent stint on the disabled list with tendonitis. Otherwise, his strikeouts per nine innings rate (13.31) would lead minor league baseball. see more

Bill,

Today we got a frantic call from my 10- year old from what my wife could gather was someone had just attempted to steal his cell phone. My son was with three other 11- year- olds so my wife and I rushed from Gaetano\’s around the corner and saw my son\’s friends. They told me that the kid was on a bike and described him. I let my wife out to comfort my son and his friends and then took off after this kid.

As I was driving on Browning Road I spotted this kid and called Gaetano\’s and the owner ran out and grabbed the kid. Within minutes the police arrived with my wife and son. One police officer said they had been looking for this guy. They arrested the kid and when we were summoned back to the police department we found out that this kid is really 19- year- old from Gloucester City; and that he had been sexually assaulting kids in the area recently. A sketch was to go out today about him.

The \”Gracie\” has been laid up for the last few weeks with engine problems, but she is now \”ready to go\”. We\’ll be taking her out for Mako\’s this Saturday.

In the meantime, flounders are in and Scott and his wife Deneen, along with John and Terry Flynn connected with nine keeper flounders up to 22\”. They fished from a small boat out in the Stone Harbor back bays.

Stripers are on their way out. Poverty Beach in Cape May has been hot and cold. Babe Berglund took a nice 42\” bass from the surf on Saturday night.

Weak fish have been taken around the rocks on the Cape May jetties. Some fish up to 10 lbs., but it\’s nothing like the old days. The artificial reefs have been spotty, good one day and nothing the next day. The water temperature is up to 64 degrees in the ocean and above 67 degrees in the Bay.

Looking at our log from last year, flounder should be appearing around 19 buoy for the next three weeks. Still have some weekends open. To book a charter, call Eva-Parker Fishing Charters at 856-456-5511. Until later, keep a tight line.
