Industrious boys Correction of June 12 article The Boy Scouts from Troop 27 in Glen Rock recently held a Car Wash and Bake Sale in the Saint Catharine’s Church parking lot. The surname of Glen Rock Board of Education candidate Carlo Cella III was misspelled in article that apeared in the June 12 edition. Villadom TIMES regrets the error and any inconvenience it may have caused. Harlow honored (continued from page 7) A graduate of Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, Harlow had earlier served as an 18-year-old U.S. Navy Seabee on Saipan and Okinawa when both islands were still hotly contested by their Japanese garrisons. He worked on the closest American-built airstrip to the Japanese home islands and helped plan the tentative invasion of Japan. After the war and his graduation from Dartmouth, Harlow taught English as a college professor in Athens, Greece, under a Fulbright Scholarship. He completed graduate work in engineering and statistics at New York University, but did not take an advanced degree. This career was reflected in the formal proclamation given to him by the council last week. “They only made one error,” Harlow said quietly. “They had me born in Massachusetts and I was actually born in Paris, France.”
