GOING ROUND IN CIRCLES

GOING ROUND IN CIRCLES - If the cover of "The Carousel News & Trader" seems familiar, it very well could be. The September issue, which focuses on New Jersey, features a close-up the Dr. Floyd L. Moreland Dentzel/Loof Carousel in Seaside Heights on the front. There also is a two-page centerfold of the full carousel, 10 additional photos and an article by Dr. Moreland on the history of shore carousels. Freeholder Joseph H. Vicari, who serves as Ocean County's tourism liaison, said, " The carousel is a not-so-mute tribute to Moreland's passion for maintaining it in such wonderful condition over the years. It also speaks well of the owners, the Storinos, that this piece of Americana remains in tact and has not been disassembled to be sold piece-meal to collectors. We are indeed fortunate to have this treasure in Ocean County."
