Skiers Find Somers
Adds New Tow
Expert and Beginners WIB Enjoy Ac*
commodations Installed at Parker's
Ski Tow on Route 100 Near The 19th
Hole Restaurant
Jim Parker of Harris Road, inter­
nationally known skier and skiing in­
structor, whose Ski Tow at Somers
attracted thousands of the sport's
followers from New York City, Con­
necticut as wen as the adjacent area
last winter has plans for expansion
this year which include a second tow
for experts, possible night skiing ses­
sions, and a ski school.
The 850-foot hill on which the new
tow will operate has a 1,000-foot
downhill run, covers eight acres and
is located some 200 yards behind the
19th Hole Restaurant, popular ren­
dezvous for participants before and
after a rugged, exhilerajting morning
or afternoon on the long runners.
Though the new tow, steeper, longer
•will be for "graduate" skiers, Mr.
Parker points out that the old 700-
foot tow with a 900- foot run on the
golf course, across Route 100, will
again serve beginners and Intermed­
iates and so both tows will provide
thrills galore (plus safety) for family
skiing parties possessing varying de­
grees of skill.
Mr. Parker is now setting up tow
foundations and will shortly install
Ms machinery so that when the snow-
depth warrants, the season will begin
with a bang! The terrain on_Hul No.
1, normally a golf course, is so even
that but a minimum of snow (possibly
but three inches) is required. ,
"Use of the new hill was made pos­
sible through the removal of a 500-
foot stone wall at the hill's base by
Simeon Brady, owner, who personally
supervised the work and has aided
materially in making the Parker Tow
a Mecca for New York City and coun­
ty skiers. Additional new features
will be a traif through the woods,
across an open slope and a large park­
ing space at the new hill's foot to ac­
commodate several hundred cars.
The proposed night skiing under
lights, to benefit commuters, office
employees, etc., will 'be limited to
Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday
evening and will tend, Mr. Parker
said, to keep the courses in superior
condition. "We didnt offer livewire
ski instruction last year," Mr. Parker
continued, "but this season I'm plan­
ning regular Beginners' and Advanc­
ed Classes for all who would like to
improve their form." One-time in­
structor at Williams College, Mr. Park­
er is known locally for nis work teach­
ing skiing at the Bedford-Rtppowam
School.
An estimated 1,000 rides per hour
on each tow win be provided, mater­
ially reducing waiting time, and the
same 'safety device—or "gate"—will be
installed on the new tow which offer­
ed protection last year on Hill No. 1.
The "gate" offers the apprehensive
beginner an opportunity to stop half­
way up the hill and so return to the
bottom of the hill via a gentler slope.
AH possible means are taken, Mr.
Parker indicated, to make beginners
feel at ease and tfoey are never urged
to "bite off more than they can
chew."
According to Westchester Park Su­
perintendent George S. Haight a ban
against carrying skis, ski poles, to­
boggans, sleds, fishing poles and oth­
er athelettc equipment on caT tops may
soon be lifted in Westchester. The
change in the ordinance wag recom­
mended at a Park Commission meet­
ing in White Plains last Thursday.
Equipment may protrude no more
than 12 inches from the rear of the
car and must not extend from the
sides. If the amendment is adopted
(and probabilities are that it win be)
more skiers than ever will be able to
take advantage of the double facili­
ties at Jim Parker's Somers Ski Tow
on Route 100.

Plea of Commander of the Revolu­

House, Beacon, to Starving Soldiers
On Occasion of a Wedding Christ­

*
By Morgan H. Hoyt
Historian and Editor, Beacon, N. Y.
Few of the present generation fully
realize that right here in our midst
are many historic places connected
with the Revolutionary War. The Tel­
ler House, for instance, situated on
VanNydeck Avenue, Beacon, N. Y.,
was erected in 1709 and is still in a
fine state of preservation. If I am
not mistaken, it still remains in own­
ership of descendants of its original
owners.
At this season I thought it would
be of interest to the older residents to
recall a Christmas party held at this
historic mansion and that newcom­
ers to the city and the younger gen­
eration would be interested. The fol­
lowing article first appeared in the
Fishkill Journal in 1883. Later, in
1907, on the occasion of Washington's
17Sth birthday, with other facts it
was published in a birthday edition
of the Mattawan Journel. In 1932,
the 200th anniversary of Washington's
birth, with other material it was pub­
lished in the Beacon Light. Here is
the article:
Our story takes us to Fishkill (Ed.
note: All this section was Fishkill in
those days) in the year 1783. It was
Christmas Day. The owner of the
mansion was Henry Schenck, a mem­
ber of the Continental Congress and
a quartermaster in the army. He and
his wife had invited friends from far
and near to honor the Prince of
Peace, George Washington, now thft
peace had been restored to the coun­
try. One month ago that very day.
Nov. 25, 1783. General Washington had
resigned his position and layinsdown
the cares of state retired to his farm
on the Potomac. The British had
evacuated New York, and with the
massing of our army in the interior,
Fishkill became a most important cen­
ter because of the safe position north
of the Highlands. Here they had their
workshops, their hospitals and their
magazines and their barracks built in
the woods. The town was crowded
with refugees who had left their homes
on Long Island and New York to es­
cape imprisonment. Many officers of
distinction were stationed in the
vicinitv. The Marquis de Lafayette,
who was quartered at the residence of
Matthew Brinckerhoff; Baron Steu­
ben, who was a veteran from the arm­
ies of Frederick the Great of Prussia,
had come to America in 1777 and
joined Washington's army, had at this
time his headquarters at the Ver-
planck House. 1'hese and many oth­
ers were present at "Herr" Schenck's
at the dinner party. Roaring fires
crackled on the hearth and the arid-
irons glistened like gold.
The Rev. Mr. Vesey, of New York,
(one of the refugees) asked God's
blessing, and the tempting viands
were served with great pomp and
style, with many servants, partaken
of with the whole theme of the talk
of the war and Washington. The fam­
ily tankard of massive silver was re­
filled many times with sparkling wine.
Nearly all those present teld some
circumstances connected personally
with contact with General Washing­
ton. (Some of them are being told in
a booklet I am preparing). When
"Herr" Schenck was called upon he
told the history of the Homestead. He
then related: "As you know, our camp
at Fishkill was always overcrowded, so
that General Washington had occas­
ion to move large bodies of troops and
private hospitality was sought, and
never, I am thankful to say. sought in
vain. One evening, I recall, when my
daughter. Elice, was married to a
young officer on the staff of Govern­
or Clinton, a large party had assem-

Red Cross Gives To
Veterans Hospital
Christinas Cheer In the Form of j
Comforts, Amusements and Table
Delicacies are Provided by Local
Red Cross Groups.
How many of you who read this
newspaper are aware of the continual
service that the Putnam County
Chapter of the American Red Cross
is giving to our veterans in the Castle
Point Hospital.
Particularly now at this holiday season,
the various committees and volunteers
are busy gathering together
all that Is needed to make a real
Christmas for the veterans in the
hospital and their families.
When Christmas is past, however,
they will still be busy providing entertainment,
vocational instruction
and all else that is needed to rebuild
health, courage and general well-being
for these men in the hospital.
This is true of all the American Red
Cross Chapters throughout the Unit- I
ed States.
The efficient organization of the
Putnam County Chapter under a gen- |
eral chairman and the fine spirit of
these volunteers has created a person- •
al feeling of well being and satisfac- L
tion of a job well done that cannot
fail to have its effect upon those
among whom they work.
The volunteer groups cover a large
field, including staff aids, motor corps,
nurses' aids, production and supply
(which Includes knitting, sewing, surgical
dressings, bandages, etc.) home
service, gray ladies who work, in the !
hospitals, canteen service, arts and
skills and the entertainment service.
In this last group, the list of enter- I
tainmens, both dramatic and musical,
the birthday parties and holiday cele- .
brations would fill many columns.
Each one of these services is of sucR
great importance and value that much j
could be said, not only of the whole, j
but of each individual who contrib- •
utes so much of time and effort. In,
practically every case, these volun- j
teers have homes and families to j
maintain yet they give so freely of
themselves that they cannot be praised
too highly.
Learn more about your Red Cross I
and the way it constantly works for |
the good of humanity. All who wish ,
are welcome to take part.
It may not be money in the pockets,!
but it puts something of greater value
In our hearts.
A Merry Christmas To All from the
Putnam County Chapter of the Amer- ;
lean Red Cross.
