HOPES FOR RE-ELECTION ON MAY 3

TIMES STAFF WRIETR 

DUDLEY — Dudley Police arrested 

a local man last week after he 

allegedly stabbed his girlfriend in 

the early morning hours. 

Dudley resident Gary R. Bergeron, 

43, of 42 Oxford Ave., was taken into 

custody Wednesday, April 7, at 

approximately 2 a.m., after a phone 

call to the police department was 

made regarding a woman who was 

found bleeding at Bergeron’s residence.

Dudley and Webster Annual 

Elections on Monday, May 3, the 

Webster Times is featuring election 

profiles of all the candidates in the 

Board of Selectmen 

and School 

Committee races. In 

the interest of fairness, 

the order of the

WEBSTER — 

After nine years 

serving as a selectman, 

Chairman 

Robert J. Miller said 

last week he hopes to 

Robert Miller 

be re-elected for 

another three years 

to continue his work in the community. 

With the Annual Election set 

for Monday, May 3, municipal 

races are kicking into high gear 

and with two seats available and 

three candidates in play — including 

fellow incumbent Mark 

Dowgiewicz and newcomer 

Donald Bourque — Miller said he 

hopes that residents put their 

faith in him again when they 

make the trip to the polls. 

Miller said as a life-long member 

of the community, it is his 

goal to keep the town moving forward. 

He added he is pleased that 

all five members have meshed 

together so well in the past two 

years. He said he 

believes his fellow 

board members work 

together so well 

because “they are all 

pointed toward the 

same goal — even if 

there are varying 

opinions.” 

Miller said after 

almost a decade on the 

board, three on the 

Finance Committee 

and three years as 

selectmen chairman, 

he is confidant he 

brings the right tools to the table 

to be re-elected. 

“There is a lot to learn in this 

position,” said Miller, adding that 

whether it is learning about the 

Town Charter or what duties 

apply to the position of selectman, 

what the board can and cannot 

do, there are many things that 

one has to understand before real-

Editor’s Note: Leading up to the 

Dudley and Webster Annual 

Elections on Monday, May 3, the

election profiles 

of all the candidates 

in the Board of 

Selectmen and School

WEBSTER — With 

the Annual Election 

less than a month 

Mark Dowgiewicz 

away, candidates 

want you, the voter, 

to find out just what makes them 

qualified to run your town, and 

incumbent Mark Dowgiewicz 

hopes to be that candidate of 

choice for the Board of Selectmen 

on Monday, May 3. 

In the election, Dowgiewicz will 

face off against fellow incumbent 

and Selectmen Chairman Robert 

J. Miller and newcomer Donald D. 

Bourque. Two out of the three 

men will claim a spot on the 

board. 

Dowgiewicz is in his ninth year 

with the board and fifth as vice 

chairman. He said in an interview 

last week that he 

is looking forward to 

this year’s race, with 

the hope of being able 

to spend three more 

years in the position 

he has come to love. 

Dowgiewicz said he 

made the move into 

town politics when he 

moved back to 

Webster in 1999 after 

retiring from the 

police force where he 

worked as a 

Connecticut State 

Trooper from 1982 until 1997. He 

has worked at the Worcester 

Superior Court since 1999. 

“When I retired from the State

WEBSTER — The thought of 

running 26 miles sounds like punishment 

for some, but for the thousands 

who participate in the 

Boston Marathon, the challenge is 

why they wake up in the morning. 

For one Webster resident, this 

year’s race will be the last time he 

will feel that rush. 

Webster resident and avid running 

enthusiast Robert Stawiecki 

is excited, yet sad, to run this 

year’s Boston Marathon on 

Monday, April 19, as it will be his 

last. 

“I will turn 60 in May and so this 

will have to be the last one,” said 

Stawiecki. “I found out about two 

marathons ago that I needed a 

knee replacement, but I held out 

because I love running.” 

He said he is upset to end his 

hobby and that it is something that 

has been a part of his life for so 

long, but if he waited any longer, 

the doctor said the exercise could 

make his knees worse. 

Stawiecki said his doctor wants 

him to get the surgery because of 

the advanced arthritis in his 

knees, but told him the only downside 

is that the replacement would 

mean the end of his running

Governor releases $155 million for local road projects 

BOSTON — Rep. Paul 

Kujawski, D-Webster, has 

announced that Governor Deval 

Patrick has notified cities and 

towns they will receive $155 million 

in state Chapter 90 funds to 

rebuild and repair local roads 

and bridges this year. 

This significant capital investment 

will create construction 

jobs, improve transportation and 

public safety and encourage longterm 

economic development 

across the Commonwealth. 

“This record level of investment 

in repairing town and city 

roads and bridges represents an 

historic and timely boost for 

communities across the 

Commonwealth,” said Patrick. 

“When combined with our 

unprecedented Accelerated 

Bridge Program and federal 

stimulus projects, we are putting 

thousands of people to work and 

jumpstarting our economy as we 

rebuild our transportation infrastructure.” 

“Chapter 90 funds are essential 

towards the repair and enhancement 

of local infrastructure 

needs,” said Kujawski. 

“Communities with tight budget, 

use the section 90 funds to make 

transportation safe and efficient.” 

Each city and town will receive 

an increase in Chapter 90 funding 

for the fiscal year beginning 

on July 1, 2010, compared to the 

previous year, with funds allocated 

using a longstanding formula 

based upon community road 

miles, population and employment. 

This investment represents 

a $5 million increase over 

2009 and is part of the Patrick- 

Murray Administration’s record 

level of investment in the 

Commonwealth’s aging infrastructure. 

This year alone, officials 

project the Administration 

has funded an estimated $1.085 

billion in Accelerated Bridge

“Our municipalities have critical 

street and bridge improvement 

and safety projects ready to 

go and waiting for these funds, 

and MassDOT is working closely 

with our local partners on 

streamlined project design and 

construction to put these dollars 

to use quickly and wisely,” said 

Transportation Secretary and 

CEO Jeffrey Mullan. 

“This important investment in 

our communities lies within the 

confines of our 5-year capital 

plan, a responsible blueprint for 

the 

Patrick-Murray 

Administration’s strategic 

investments,” 

said 

Administration and Finance 

Secretary Jay Gonzalez. “These 

road and bridge repair projects 

are important to communities 

and important to the economic

Water damage raises eyebrows 

DUDLEY PAIR CONCERNED NICHOLS RUN OFF IS HURTING PROPERTY 



DUDLEY — With March’s heavy rainfall 

causing damage all around the Northeast, a 

pair of Dudley residents feel that new parking 

additions to Nichols College are going to 

magnify the issues of water damage and 

flooding even more. 

Lifelong Healy Road residents and twin sisters 

Janice Williams, of 83 Healy Road, and 

Jeanne Davis, of 79 Healy Road, have become 

increasingly frustrated with Nichols College 

officials, as well as the town of Dudley, after a 

30-year struggle to have the drainage issues 

from the school’s parking lots resolved. 

Williams said the property on which she 

and her sister have their homes is a former 

dairy farm owned by their family for more 

than 200 years. After retiring from teaching 

in the Dudley-Charlton School District and 

the Spencer-East Brookfield Regional School 

District, the pair now uses the farm to produce 

hay, and fear that water runoff from the 

parking lots is damaging their property. 

Williams said a site plan for a new Nichols 

parking lot was officially approved by the 

Planning Board on July 25, 2008, much to she 

and her sister’s disappointment. 

With a current court case pending since 

July 2008 in the Boston Land Court system, 

Williams and Davis hope to resolve the issue 

with the college as soon as possible. 

Williams and Davis claim that when a proposal 

for a new parking lot, which would be 

located from behind the Dudley 

Congregational Church to Healy Road, came 

up in 2008, they were not notified that the 

Dudley Conservation Commission had 

approved the bid. 

Williams said it was explained to her that 

the commission had made the approval 

because they believed an additional 112 acres 

“would have no environmental affect.” 

So she said when the idea went to the 

Planning Board, she and her sister were 

caught off guard when they went to the meeting. 

Williams said in 2007 there was a similar 

issue when the new dormitories were built at 

the end of Center Road, and the runoff was 

going to affect the Tufts Branch Brook. 

“The problem is that they have run out of 

land to properly expand and take care of the 

issues that they have,” said Williams. “Now 

those problems have become the neighbors’ 

problems.” 

Nichols College Vice President for Student 

Affairs and Dean of Students Dr. Brian T. 

McCoy said he could not comment on the 

issue, due to the “ongoing court case.” 

Davis said other examples of local runoff 

include Wielcoh Pond, which is now considered 

a “dead pond” because of all of the silt 

that is now in the water due to the rain run 

off. 

Conservation Commission Chairman Dick 

Androiewicz denied to comment on the issue 

when contacted Monday, March 29. 

“The first time we were in court we were 

[naïve] enough to think that [the town] would 

be protect us,” said Williams. 

She added that right now, it is the Tufts 

Brook and her farm that are suffering the 

worst blow from the run off, and she is also 

concerned about a cement tunnel less than 

500 feet away from her home, which was an 

abandoned project of the Grand Trunk 

Railroad from the early 1900s. 

Dudley residents Janice and Jeanne Davis look over plans for the new Nichols College parking lots. They 

have recently taken the school to land court over a dispute over the runoff from the college’s parking lots 

they believe is causing damage to their farm and Healey Road. 

Joy Richard photos 

Water damage from rainstorms in March can be seen on Healey Road in Dudley and residents Janice and 

Jeanne Davis are concerned that if Nichols College adds to their parking lots, the damage caused by rain 

will worsen. 

The tunnel, which is approximately 12 feet 

wide by 9 feet high, is made of deteriorating 

concrete, which she believes might not make 

it through many more heavy rainstorms if 

not re-enforced. 

Williams said when she spoke to Dudley 

Highway superintendent Dan Gion he said he 

was concerned about the structure and if it 

collapses the women could have a small 

“lake” on their property. 

Gion said in an interview with the Webster 

Times that the culvert is “not in good shape,” 

but with budget restraints it is difficult to 

know when they will be able to fix it. 

“We do monitor it,” said Gion. 

When asked if there was potential for 

flooding if the culvert collapsed, he said 

there was “no doubt about it,” and that it 

could happen if there were more heavy rains. 

Town Planner and Selectman Nancy 

Runkle said Williams and Davis were, according 

to her records, both informed via the mail 

of the public hearings for the Planning Board 

public hearing as well as the hearing with the 

Conservation Commission. 

She defended the actions of the Planning 

Board, stating that the board “not only met, 

but exceeded the regulations [for a new parking 

area] the Planning Board had no choice 

but to approve.” 

Runkel said she believed that when Nichols 

engineers met with Williams and Davis, they 

tried to resolve the issue, but the sisters did 

not want to settle. 

Williams said one of the pair’s other main 

concerns was the small pond that was set up 

to collect the runoff, stating that it was 

designed to only hold “100 years worth or 

rainfall,” and that it would not be enough if it 

were rain as much as it did this past March. 

Runkle said that area was approved before 

she became Town Planner more than five 

years ago and as she knows it meets the 

state’s standards and is designed to “slowly 

leach out” as the rain accumulates. Also, that 

testing was conducted to find how much rainfall 

there was in that area for more than two

State Rep. denies ethic violations 

ALICEA DEFENDS PARTICIPATION IN SOUTHBRIDGE 

EXECUTIVE SESSION 

PHOTO OF THE WEEK 

BY RYAN GRANNAN-DOLL 

STONEBRIDGE PRESS STAFF WRITER 

State Rep. Geraldo Alicea, D-Charlton, is denying he 

violated state ethics laws when he participated in an executive 

session meeting of the Southbridge Town Council 

last week. 

During the meeting, the possible return of a Registry of 

Motor Vehicles branch back to town from Charlton was 

discussed. 

At the same time, Southbridge Town Councilors are 

steadfastly defending themselves against a complaint 

alleging they violated the state’s Open Meeting Law at the 

April 5 meeting. 

The Southbridge Evening News, the daily, sister publication 

of The Webster Times, last week filed a complaint 

with the state Ethics Commission alleging Alicea created 

a conflict of interest by participating in the closed-door 

session. 

The newspaper also filed a complaint with the 

Worcester County District Attorney’s Office, alleging the 

Town Council violated the Open Meeting Law when it 

met. 

The council did not decide or vote upon anything 

Monday night, according to Chairman Steven Lazo, 

because Councilor Pamela Regis was not there. 

Citing budget cuts, the RMV last year closed the 

Southbridge branch at the Big Bunny plaza on Main 

Street. About a month later, the RMV opened a new 

branch off the Massachusetts Turnpike 5-East service 

area. Since then, controversy has erupted with lawmakers 

and residents who have criticized the site as unsafe 

and inconvenient. 

Told of the complaint, Alicea denied he broke the rules. 

He said he checked with a state House of Representatives 

attorney who told him there were no problems with his 

attendance. 

Asked to provide proof of that, Alicea did not. 

“There was no conflict. No violation on my part at all,” 

he said. “I checked into it with them. I followed the rules. 

I was doing my job in the scope of constituent services.” 

According to the complaint, written by Executive 

Editor Walter Bird Jr., “We are asking the Ethics 

Commission to determine whether Mr. Alicea was acting 

within the scope of his duties … by serving as an adviser 

on a potential contract between a local community and a 

state agency with which he has no known affiliation … 

Alicea’s participation in this executive session represented 

a conflict of interest with his sworn duties,” it reads. 

It continues: “In that Mr. Alicea has been a facilitator of 

so much public discussion involving the Registry of 

Motor Vehicles and the town of Southbridge (as has been 

reported extensively in local newspapers), we question 

the ethics of his bringing the matter behind closed doors 

after it has been a public issue for several months.” 

As for the Open Meeting complaint, Lazo denied any 

violation occurred. 

“According to the town manager [Christopher Clark], 

we had the right to invite [Alicea]. I went along with the 

town manager,” he said. 

Lazo Monday said he had originally called for the 

closed-door session to negotiate a lease, however, none 

was presented. He said the whole gathering became an 

update session for councilors who were not up to speed on 

the options. 

According to the complaint, also written by Bird, which 

recounts Alicea’s involvement, The Southbridge Evening 

News claims the meeting was a “gross violation” of the 

law because the councilors ended up receiving an update 

on possible lease options, instead of actually negotiating 

a lease. “Based on what we have subsequently learned 

and been told about what transpired during this executive 

session, it is our confident assertion that this meeting, 

in fact, constituted a gross violation of the state’s 

Open Meeting Law,” the complaint reads. 

Clark said no violation occurred because no actual 

negotiating took place. 

“There were no negotiations. We were preparing the 

town’s position,” he said. “I don’t think we did anything 

inappropriate. The town will defend the actions it has 

already taken.”

Southbridge Town Council Vice Chairman Albert Vecchia Jr. at 

immediate right, and Chairman Steven Lazo after Monday’s executive 

session regarding a return of a Registry of Motor Vehicles 

branch to Southbridge. 

Clark, however, revealed he had a draft lease at the 

meeting, but said they were “too rough” to present to 

councilors. The law, he said, does not actually require 

councilors have a paper lease in front of them to enter 

executive session. 

Noting the legal exemption the council used to enter 

executive session, which allows a town to “to consider the 

… lease or value of real property if such discussion may 

have a detrimental effect on the town’s negotiating position,” 

Clark said: “How do we know that unless we have a 

discussion about what we are going to negotiate about?” 

While nobody at the meeting would say what branch 

options were actually discussed, town officials have 

recently been working on a proposal to move a branch 

into the Casaubon Senior on LaRochelle Way under a $1 a 

year for five years lease agreement. The Senior Center 

would move to the Community Center/Armory on 

Chestnut Street. Asked about the status of that proposal, 

RMV Spokesman Ann Dufresne offered the following 

statement in an e-mail: “We are under the impression the 

town must still go through the sighting process and proper 

committee reviews before we know if the Senior 

Center is even available.” 

Livengood lent his defense against the Open Meeting 

Law allegation. 

“[No violation occurred because] we were negotiating. 

It wasn’t an update,” he said. 

Livengood later conceded, “An update was involved but 

it ended up a negotiating thing. The council gave [Clark] 

direction.” 

Councilor Catherine Nikolla also joined the defense 

saying the law allows for councilors to receive updates in 

executive session, much as they are allowed to receive 

updates regarding lawsuits. However, there is no pending 

litigation over the issue, and the council, in entering 

executive session, cited the same legal exemption Clark 

cited in the council’s defense. 

“Because, as I said, when you think about all the reasons 

you can have an executive session, in my 

opinion…[it] fell well within the framework of the executive 

session,” Nikolla said. 

Clark said the town will have to pay Town Counsel 

Robert Caprera $150 per hour to defend itself against the 

complaint. 

The Council met again Monday, April 12, after which it 

was expected to once more meet in executive session “relevant 

to this topic,” Clark said.. Alicea said the town had 

not invited him to any session that day, and he had another 

commitment that was “just as important.”

Slow but steady wins the race for Nichols valedictorian 

DUDLEY — Gloria Harvey traveled to 

Walt Disney World in February with her 

daughter Kim Kondek, son-in-law Tony, and 

grandsons, Nick, Peter, and Owen, for the 

joy of experiencing the resort’s theme: 

What will you celebrate? 

“I went to celebrate my Nichols graduation 

with the people I love,” says the 

Thompson, Conn., resident, who’s proud 

that she never gave up on her personal goal 

for a bachelor’s in business administration. 

Three days after she returned from vacation, 

Harvey got a phone call from Registrar 

Betin Robichaud telling her that she was 

named valedictorian of the Nichols College 

Class of 2010. 

For Robichaud, such conversations are a 

joyous part of her job: “When I told Gloria 

the good news on Feb. 25, she was delighted 

and truly modest,” she said. 

Harvey, who earned her remarkable grade 

point average of 3.961 and 90 credits, will be 

addressing her class, a little scary and ironic 

considering her very last class for the 

Spring 2010 semester is Effective Public 

Speaking. 

Harvey graduated from high school in 

1965, went to work at American Optical, got 

married and gave birth to her daughter and 

son. She dreamed of going to college, but 

life simply got in the way as she helped her 

family financially by working in a variety of 

administrative positions. 

It wasn’t until Harvey got a job at Riley 

Construction Co., with its tuition reimbursement 

program, that she began working 

towards her associate’s in Executive 

Secretarial Management at Johnson & 

Wales University in Providence, R.I. Her 

biggest cheerleader was husband Earl, a 

skilled machinist, who pitched in at home 

so she could take two or three classes all day 

Saturday. 

“Opportunities happen when you go back 

to school and continue your education,” 

says Harvey, who kept plugging away. 

“Tuition reimbursement has been a huge 

motivator in my getting both my associate’s 

and bachelor’s.” 

Today, Harvey works as an underwriting 

and premium accounting services administrative 

assistant for Assistant Vice 

President Steve Clark at The Commerce 

Insurance/Maphre USA. Through its 

renowned, generous tuition reimbursement 

program, several of the company’s 1,900 

Webster employees are 

enrolled in degree programs 

at Nichols College. 

However, it was really the 

business faculty that made the 

difference for Harvey. 

“I have always felt that life’s 

the best teacher,” said Harvey. 

“I like a traditional classroom 

setting, where I can listen to 

professors’ stories about their 

life experiences as business 

executives.” 

Harvey is quick to rattle off 

some of her favorites, including: 

Robert Fleming, Edward 

Romano, John Glenn, Sheila 

Mehta-Green and Marcia 

Behrens. 

Harvey’s achievement of 

earning a bachelor’s degree 

took more than a decade, and 

like Aesop’s tale of Tortoise 

and the Hare, slow and steady 

won the race. After retirement, Harvey may 

consider substitute teaching, but for now, 

she’s just looking forward to seeing her family 

and friends out there in the audience

St. Joseph takes first in Lego competition 

AGAWAM — In December 2009, St. Joseph School FLL team “The Bottle Droids” coached by 

Mr. Mike Mamro competed in Agawam against 31 other teams from the region during the 

annual Lego Robot event. 

The 2009 theme of the competition was Smart Moves as it related to the transportation problems. 

Worldwide there were 14,725 teams consisting of 147,250 students ages 9 to 16 from 56 

countries. 

FIRST, which stands for “For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology” was 

founded in 1989 by inventor and entrepreneur Dean Kamen. The mission of FLL is to inspire 

young people to be science and technology leaders, by engaging them in exciting mentorbased 

programs that build science, engineering and technology skills, inspire innovation, and 

foster well-rounded life capabilities 

including self-confidence, communication, 

and leadership. 

The robots are built using “Lego 

Mindstorms” technologies and they need 

to be programmed to complete chosen 

tasks/missions in two minutes time. 

Each mission is worth a different number 

of points and the team who scores the 

highest number of points in the playoffs 

wins the competition. 

We are proud to report that St. Joseph’s 

“Bottle Droids” won the 2009 Robot Game 

in Agawam. Congratulations to the team 

leader Mr. Mamro and the members 

Tomasz Mamro (Gr. 4), Suzanne Ellis (Gr. 

5), Kyle Herbst (Gr. 6), Gordon Ellis (Gr. 6) 

and Alex Gardner (Gr. 8). The team 

received a memorable trophy for their 

efforts and certainly represented St. 

Joseph School admirably. Job well done!

WORCESTER — Worcester Polytechnic 

Institute (WPI) has announced that Robert 

Puishys, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. 

Puishys Jr., of Oxford, a first-year student 

majoring in Biology and Biotechnology, has 

been named a Charles O. Thompson Scholar 

for the 2009-2010 academic year. 

Named in honor of the first president of 

WPI, this honor recognizes outstanding performance 

by first-year students. To be eligible

Curry College 

MILTON — Curry College Theatre is 

pleased to announce that Oxford resident 

Paige Turcotte, daughter of Robert and 

Donna Turcotte, will be playing the role of 

Madame Peanute in the New England premiere 

of Steve Longmuir’s “The Peanute 

Galleria.” 

Turcotte, a 2006 graduate of Oxford High 

School, is a senior at the college, majoring in 

communication with a theatre concentration. 

A member of Screen Actor’s Guild, 

Turcotte has delighted Curry Theatre audiences 

in To See the Stars, A Shayna Maidel, 

Games and Puzzles, The Madwoman of 

Challiot and in last spring’s musical premiere 

of Gail Phaneuf ’s “The Love Note.” 

Ms. Turcotte’s original script of The Number 

9 premiered last month during Curry 

Theatre’s Fourth Annual New Plays Festival. 

“The Peanute Galleria” is a wild romp of a 

comedy. The show takes place in the fictional 

Havershall Museum in Boston, where a cast 

of crazy characters and art thieves prepare 

for the homecoming of a world-famous artist, 

the great Peanute. But what happens when 

the folks at old Havershall realize the artist is 

not what he is cracked up to be?

Registration 

Kindergarten registration for the 2010-2011 

school year will be held at Park Ave. 

Elementary School from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on 

the following days: Tuesday, April 20; 

Wednesday, April 21; Thursday, April 22. 

Any child 5 years of age on or before Aug. 

31, is eligible for kindergarten. They should

Students in Mrs. Elaine 

Goulas’ fifth grade science 

classes have started their 

final unit on energy and 

currently, are exploring 

magnetism and electricity. 

Assistant Principal Ben 

Milliner was asked to present 

a lesson showing different 

ways we can produce 

electricity. In preparation 

for Mr. Milliner’s visit, students 

wrote questions that 

were personally answered 

by him to each of the 51 students. 

The answers to these 

questions will assist students 

as they continue to explore magnetism 

and electricity. 

Mr. Milliner conducted various experiments 

to show students how electricity is 

generated. Using a small model generator, he 

showed students how chemical energy transformed 

to thermal energy, thermal energy 

transformed to mechanical energy, and lastly 

mechanical energy transformed to electrical 

energy when the bulb was lit. Students 

learned about the parts of a battery: anode, 

electrolyte and cathode. Through his experiment, 

Mr. Milliner showed students that with 

two dissimilar metals and an electrolyte, 

energy could be produced. Using a nail, copper, 

and different electrolytes, (e.g., water, 

lemons, potatoes, baking soda, Styrofoam), he 

illustrated either the electrolytes were good 

conductors or insulators. Lastly, he showed 

students how circuits worked. He explained 

what a direct current was and had numerous 

illustrations on the board showing math formulas 

that were used to find the missing variable. 

Students learned a great deal about these 

concepts. Mr. Milliner served as a resource 

person and enhanced students’ learning 

beyond the classroom. His lessons also served 

to peak students’ curiosity and prepare them 

for future lessons that Mrs. Goulas was introducing. 

Mr. Milliner provided Mrs. Goulas 

with handouts that she distributed in her 

classroom. These handouts contained math 

formulas and served as a great interdisciplinary 

lesson between science and math. Mrs. 

Goulas’ students soon will be making persuasive 

brochures based on an alternative energy 

topic. They are looking forward to Mr. 

Milliner’s last presentation this year, where 

he will discuss nuclear power to the entire 

fifth grade.

WEBSTER — Students in grades six through eight at Saint Louis participated in this year’s “Letters 

About Literature” program, sponsored by the Massachusetts Center for the Book and the Calderwood 

Writing Initiative in cooperation with the Library of Congress. This year more than 4,100 letters were 

written by young readers in Massachusetts. Students are grappling with real-life issues: life and death, 

belonging and isolation, happiness and depression, all while linking the books that they read in meaningful 

ways to their efforts succeed in the complex world in which they live. Three students from Saint 

Louis have been selected as semi-finalists and placed in the top 10 percent of letters written: Brianna 

Millett (Grade 8), Ryan Canty (Grade 7) and Katherine Gatto (Grade 6). They will be listed as semifinalists 

at the Massachusetts LAL Web site.

My almost

Only days remain until the official 

kick-off of the Auburn Little League 

season, and many families couldn’t be 

more excited. The sun is finally 

warming our little piece of the Earth, 

and with that comes the blossoming of 

trees and flowers, the smells of freshly 

cut grass and the all-to-familiar 

THE MINOR 

DETAILS 

ADAM MINOR 

“ping!” of aluminum 

bats connecting with 

baseballs. 

Ah, to be young 

again. 

I remember “back in 

the day” (I put that 

phrase in quotes 

because I am only 26, 

and “back in the day” 

doesn’t quite hold the 

same meaning as it 

would a 60- or 70-yearold), 

game days were 

filled with excitement. 

I was the starting third 

basemen for my 

Eastford Little League, so my practice 

regimen included a grueling series of 

ground balls hit from every conceivable 

angle and various speeds. 

“Stay in front of the ball!” my 

coach, Chris Sheehan, would yell out 

to me as he hit one my way. He called 

me “Hoover,” an encouraging nickname 

that implied I sucked up every 

ground ball hit near me. I wasn’t perfect 

— I had my share of errors — but 

I was a pretty good bet to make the 

play when needed. 

My most shining moment also 

turned out to be my most frustrating. 

It was an early Saturday game, barely 

after noon. We were playing one of 

the better teams in our league, and it 

was early in the game. We had a couple 

people on base and I stepped up to 

the plate. 

I was never really known as a power 

hitter. I was lankier back then, so 

when I did connect, it was mostly for 

singles or doubles. 

This day was different. The pitcher 

served me a premium, Grade-A choice 

loin meatball right over the plate, and 

I ripped it to center field. 

Now, our perimeter fencing was 

your basic, run-of-the-mill chain link 

fence, with a metal bar running the 

length of the fence about 3 inches 

from the top. As I hit the ball, I 

thought the impossible was about to 

happen — my first home run. I made 

the mistake every coach warns you 

about. 

“Don’t watch the ball! Just run!” 

But I was watching intently, I just 

didn’t care. The centerfielder was 

back stepping, trying to locate the ball 

in the midday sun. He approached the 

fence, the ball was nearly down, and 

as I rounded first, it happened. 

“Ping!” 

Wait, what? My mind was in disbelief, 

as the ball bounced violently off 

the metal crossbar on the fence, 

bounced straight up in the air, and 

landed in centerfield — about as close 

a batter can come to hitting a home 

run without actually hitting a home 

run. 

I moved into second base with an 

easy double, and I did log two RBIs on 

the play, but I was crushed. My home 

run was not to be that day, and I never 

did hit one in my Little League 

“career.” 

My years in Little League were 

among the most fun in my life, and as 

Auburn Little League kicks off this 

weekend, I hope the kids can look 

back 14 years from now with a smile 

like I do. 

Play ball!

If you really want to turn around the 

under-performing schools in Massachusetts, 

I feel those school districts should be entirely 

turned over to charter school-operation for a 

least a five-year period. I would then like to 

see the charter school operated like the 

Harlem Village schools in New York City. The 

key features of their educational program 

include: 

• A rich liberal arts curriculum based on 

rigorous standards of excellence. 

• A longer day (7:30 a.m. to 4:40 p.m.) that 

provides enough time for students to both 

master basic skills and to reflect deeply on 

what they're learning. 

• Individualized tutoring, after-school 

homework center, and Saturday school for 

students needing extra help and attention. 

• A small-group advisory system that provides 

personal attention and support by connecting 

each student with an adult advisor. 

• School uniforms that reflect our commitment 

to a culture of mutual respect and serious 

scholarship. 

• A clear, strict code of conduct that operates 

consistently across the school. 

• After-school activities that include karate, 

chess, yoga and dance. 

Frequent, diagnostic assessment of student 

progress that enables teachers to check 

how students are doing and customize 

instruction or tutoring groups accordingly. 

• A focus on college preparation including 

annual year-end college trips. 

• A culture and system of accountability 

for academic achievement. 

• Talented, dedicated teachers with expertise 

in their subject areas and a passion for 

teaching. 

• A small, close-knit, nurturing school environment 

built around the values of compassion, 

hard work, responsibility, integrity and 

kindness. 

It is my understanding that the first week 

of school at the Harlem Village schools is

learning. 

The momentum gained at the Gala Event 

will extend far beyond that evening to provide 

innovative opportunities for students 

and the communities we serve. 

Again, many thanks to all who supported 

this effort. 

DCEF BOARD OF DIRECTORS 

Something to be learned from NYC schools 

devoted to explaining and establishing their 

strict code of conduct. Many times this is 

missing or lacking in our public schools. 

Harlem Village schools are proud to point 

out that their schools are designed for teachers 

so students can be successful. As they 

point out on their Web site, “In 2001, we developed 

a dramatic new approach to education 

reform that could revolutionize public education. 

We did not start with a ‘school design’ to 

be imposed on teachers; rather we set out to 

design a school for teachers. We believed that 

teachers, not programs, are the key drivers of 

student achievement — and by tapping into 

the knowledge, talent and passion of teachers, 

we could achieve ground-breaking 

results. We called our strategy ‘Schools 

Designed for Teachers.’” 

I taught math in an “under-performing” 

high school for five years, but I have to agree 

with Paula Macy of Blackstone. I feel it was 

not the school that was under-performing, 

but it was usually the students and/or parents/guardians 

that were the root of this academic 

problem. We had an outstanding math 

department with a great department chair, 

but many of our students did not get academically 

reinforced at home or via their circle of 

friends. Teenage pregnancy, drug and alcohol 

abuse, violence and gangs were a major part 

of some of these students’ lives. 

I feel an extended school day, strict discipline 

(including a dress code, so gang colors 

can be eliminated), and schools designed for 

teachers must be the minimum steps taken 

toward solving the problems with academic 

and life achievements for our students. If we 

want to turn around our “under-performing” 

schools, then the Commonwealth must be 

willing to fund and emulate the success of 

the Harlem Village schools.

A few words in praise of the best job I ever had to 

leave. 

Since January I had been involved with Meals on 

Wheels, delivering hot lunches to Southbridgians in 

and around my neighborhood. It was rewarding 

work. First of all, it was nice to be following the biblical 

edict: “Feed my sheep.” Secondly, it was nice 

getting to know such wonderful people — seniors 

and housebound neighbors who, for a variety of reasons, 

needed, and generally welcomed, a late-morning 

pop-in: 

“Hi, how’re ya doing? Here’s your lunch. Have a 

great day! See you tomorrow.” 

Alas, my new work schedule 

doesn’t have the flexibility to 

continue in this calling, so 

here’s your notice — and your 

chance, if you’re available and 

interested, to consider joining 

in this important effort. 

I’m not sure how it works in 

AS YOU 

LIKE IT 

MARK 

ASHTON 

other towns, but in 

Southbridge the Meals on 

Wheels program is run by Tri- 

Valley Inc., an organization 

long known for its work in 

behalf of senior citizens, the 

frail and elderly. With the help 

of both paid and volunteer 

staff, they dish out, serve up, 

and deliver dozens (and dozens) of meals every 

weekday, monitoring the production and distribution 

so as to keep tabs on folks who might otherwise 

“fall through the cracks” of our modern, hectic 

world. 

The meals provided are simple but nutritious, 

everything from shepherd’s pie to crumb-flaked 

fish, from ham, green beans, and mashed potatoes to 

corned-beef and cabbage. Folks opt in and out as 

their palates and activities require. No attempt is 

made to force-feed Brussels sprouts; no one is 

coaxed into giving peas a chance. At 96, a person 

should get to decide when — or even if — to eat her 

lunch, or if the family pooch should get it! 

Not everyone on my Meals on Wheels route was 

96 — but those who were certainly proud of it, 

reminding me daily of their “situation” and my 

need to speak up, listen up, and pay attention. It was 

good advice. It has taught me to appreciate some of 

the benefits, and the challenges, of aging. 

My route had about 30 (active) participants and 

took a couple of hours to complete, through some of 

my old paper route neighborhoods and streets at 

opposite ends of the town. Because someone else 

was always waiting to receive their meal, it was 

impossible to spend too much time with any one 

client, but it was amazing to me how much joy and 

good cheer could be delivered in a mere 30 seconds. 

Not by me, but by the recipients of this simple service! 

My route took me to some of the town’s tripledeckers, 

and though stair climbing is not among my 

favorite pastimes, it was always rewarding at “the 

hand-off” in the doorway or kitchen. 

“Here’s your lunch,” I’d say. 

“God bless you; thank you, sir,” came the reply, 

which was always enough to get me to the next second-floor 

apartment, even while juggling a hot plastic-wrapped 

meal, a bag of beverage, bread, and 

dessert, a cold-packed supper, a Styrofoam container 

of soup, and a cardboard box of frozen weekend 

meals. 

Jim, who continues as a Meals on Wheels deliverer, 

recently dropped out of his Thursday morning 

golf group because it conflicts with his delivery 

schedule. 

“Where else can you go to work where people say, 

‘God bless you!’ and really mean it?” he asks. 

He’s right. The appreciation that accompanies 

this simple service is truly rewarding. As you learn 

the individual stories of these oft-neglected neighbors, 

you gain insight into where we’ve come from 

as a community and a nation. 

Not to mention any names or locations — because 

privacy needs to be maintained, I will truly miss 

many of my clients/customers. These are (mostly) 

the survivors of The Greatest Generation, who still 

have stories to tell about serving in B-17s in World 

War II, who raised families and sent them off to live 

lives of their own, who taught school or worked in 

local offices for half a century, who ran businesses 

and retired, who coached Little League, who drove 

milk trucks and climbed utility poles before cable 

and Internet connections even came into being. 

I’ll miss my favorite dog lady, my friend awaiting 

her biopsy results, the guy who always attributed 

good weather to my “sunny face,” the feisty nonagenarian 

who proclaimed her age at every visit, the 

independent senior who refused to open her door on 

cold days, the friendly walker who made sure to get 

home in time for my arrival, the “handicapped” 

widower who stills shovels snow and mows his 

lawn, and the gentle lady who sat at her door to 

await my arrival and who knits cozy slippers for 

any and all comers. I’ll definitely miss the lady who 

said, “You can’t be that guy who writes for the paper. 

That picture doesn’t look anything like you!” 

We’re supposed to worry about the minds, the 

memories, and the nutritional habits of these folks. 

We’re charged with watching over them, monitoring 

their driving, fretting over the fragility of their 

bones. But ask Jim, ask my buddy Buddy, ask Edith 

and Cliff and other drivers. These folks CAN 

remember names — especially of those who take 

the time to visit, and to listen to them. These folks 

have minds worth exercising and memories from 

which great tales and great wisdom are yet to be 

drawn. 

Ask not for whom the (door)bell tolls. It tolls for 

thee. I hope Tri-Valley is still running the Meals on 

Wheels (senior nutrition) program when I’m in 

need of such things way down the road (about six 

weeks) in the future. I hope you’ll consider helping 

them out. You’ll bless so many lives — including 

your own!

VIEWPOINT 

Obama’s silence on Prince deafening 

Let’s go back to last year and a 

little incident you just may have 

heard about involving a white cop 

and the black man he arrested in 

Cambridge. 

One was a cop with what we 

would eventually learn were nearly 

impeccable credentials. The 

other was a an adjunct professor at 

Harvard University who just so 

happened to be a friend of his highness, 

the president of the United 

States. 

No need to rehash the details; if 

you don’t know what I’m talking 

about by now, you’ve been living 

under a rock feasting on grubs. 

The only matter of consequence 

here is that Barack Obama jumped 

right into the controversy without 

so much as trying to get the facts 

first. On national TV, he trashed 

the police, saying they acted “stupidly” 

in arresting Gates, despite 

reports and pictures that provided 

damning evidence that the good 

professor deliberately agitated the 

situation to make it a case of white 

versus black. 

Obama’s unchecked behavior 

seemed to confirm it. Here we had 

a friend arrested by strangers. 

BIRD’S 

NEST 

WALTER 

BIRD JR. 

White strangers. Armed with nothing 

resembling fact, Obama quickly 

condemned an entire police 

department. 

Later, without ever really apologizing, 

he invited the two principles 

to the White House for what is 

now known as “The Beer Summit.” 

The point? An incident that in no 

way involved the president on any 

level suddenly became a national 

and international story for no discernible 

reason other than the fact 

that Obama inserted himself into 

it. Had he remained where he 

belonged — on the sidelines far, far 

away from the situation — it would 

have stayed a hot topic in 

Massachusetts and then faded 

from view, probably in short order. 

Flash forward several months to 

the senseless and needless hanging 

suicide of South Hadley High 

School student Phoebe Prince, a 

young girl bullied relentlessly to 

the point that, apparently, death 

seemed a far better option than to 

live one more day hounded by cowardly 

thugs. 

On its own, the story has reached 

beyond the borders this country to 

land of Eire, where Irish citizens 

watch from afar and wonder why 

— how — one of their own came to 

be so tortured that she felt the need 

to end her life. Long after most of 

us thought they should have, the 

wheels of justice appear to be spinning. 

Several of Prince’s schoolmates 

face charges and an administration 

is being dogged for 

answers as to why no one stepped 

up in defense of a young woman 

whose only crime appears to have 

been getting involved in an intimate 

relationship. 

For that she was harassed and 

tormented; bullied and badgered. 

It ended with her body dangling 

at the end of a rope in her closet. 

Like the case of the arrested professor, 

it is a story that has dominated 

newscasts and captured the 

attention of the media. Everyone 

from here to Timbuktu (or at least 

Ireland) is talking about it. 

Everyone, that is, except for … 

you guessed it, the president of the 

United States. 

Some might say, “So what? The 

president has no place in this discussion.” 

That argument is riddled with 

holes, since neither did he have a 

place in the Cambridge fiasco. 

That didn’t stop him then. 

As a matter of fact, if any situation 

warranted at least a sentence 

or two to our nation from its president, 

it’s this one — the suicide of 

a teenager who came here from 

another country to experience life 

in the greatest country on earth. 

She might have gone back some 

day with stories of first loves, 

prom dances and new friendships 

made. Instead, she goes back in a 

coffin. 

And through all this, not a word 

— not an utterance nor a peep — 

from Barack Obama, who has 

appeared on late night talk shows, 

given press conferences on just 

about everything except what kind 

of seed is used on the White House 

lawn. 

The man who found it necessary 

to side with a friend against an 

entire police department over 

something that could have, and 

should have, been handled completely 

free of his participation 

has absolutely nothing to say about 

a group of students mercilessly 

harassing another until she killed 

herself. The man who broadcast a 

start-of-school message to kids 

across the country sees no reason 

to speak to them now about an 

issue too many of them will come 

to know about firsthand. 

Why did Obama find it worth getting 

involved in the Cambridge situation 

and not this? Only he knows 

that, but I’ve got a pretty good idea. 

I’ll leave it up to you to decide. 

You’ve got the facts and two distinct 

situations to consider. What 

answer you come it with is up to 

you. 

Me? I’d say it’s pretty black and 

white.

Spay and neuter your pets 

Spring has sprung — or more like summer 

from the recent temperatures we’ve enjoyed! 

It’s only April and we are already experiencing 

the start of kitten season. It 

can’t be stressed enough — please 

spay and neuter your pets! If you are 

having financial difficulties, there are 

low-cost spay/neuter programs available. 

Please contact us for information. 

Remember, it only takes one time 

for your female cat or dog to escape 

outside and become pregnant. We 

hear the same story all the time, the cat or 

dog that never gets out, gets out and either 

never comes home or comes home pregnant 

or the intact male dog who never leaves 

home, leaves home, never to be found again. 

There are between 3 million and four million 

dogs and cats euthanized in shelters 

alone each year. Most are euthanized 

because there are not enough people to 

adopt them. Others are euthanized because 

of medical or behavioral issues. 

People who allow their dogs or cats to 

reproduce because they cannot afford to 

have their pet neutered or spayed or because 

they are looking to make a profit from the 

offspring are merely contributing to overpopulation 

problem and are responsible for 

the euthanization of countless animals in 

shelters. Every puppy or kitten

Exercising means doing what you love! 

The absolute most important thing 

about exercise is finding something that 

you are interested in doing. 

If you do not like the exercise you have 

chosen, there is not much chance that you 

will continue with the exercise on a regular 

basis. Some people choose to do a variety 

of exercises, and pick a different one 

each day, others prefer a 

more standardized 

method and do the same 

exercises over and over. 

Whichever you choose is 

fine, as long as you do it. 

The recommendations 

from the American Heart 

Association for exercise, 

released in 2007, are a little 

complex. They can be 

found online at www.acsm.org. Basically, 

the guidelines boil down to exercising for 

30 minutes a day, most days of the week, 

with at least two days of strengthening 

and balance exercises (I will explain these 

differences later on). If you are already 

doing this, then please see the Web site for 

more specific information. I am really 

focusing on beginners here. 

So, what does exercise do for us that is so 

great? Well, it uses calories that would otherwise 

be turned into fat; it reduces bad 

cholesterol and raises good cholesterol; it 

reduces stress and depression; it reduces 

insulin resistance in our cells making us 

much less likely to develop diabetes in the 

future, and makes us feel much better 

overall (That’s quite a list!). Different exercises 

use different amounts of calories. A 

great place to find more info on this is at 

www.mypyramid.gov. 

There are three main types of exercise – 

cardiovascular, strengthening and balance 

exercises. All three are important. 

Cardiovascular exercise is any exercise 

that increases your heart beat and makes 

you sweat. These are the exercises that are 

going to burn the most calories, work your 

heart, and are what most people think of 

when the word “exercise” is mentioned. 

There is a specific target heart rate for 

each of us based on our age. The mathematical 

equation is 220 minus your age, 

multiplied by 0.7, but another option is to 

look on your favorite search engine for 

“Target Heart Rate.” One of the benefits of 

using your heart rate to determine the 

intensity of your exercise is that when you 

are just starting to exercise, your heart 

rate responds quickly so that you are

BRIERE 

doing less exercise at the 

beginning than you end up 

doing after you have created a 

routine. 

It is very important you 

learn how to take your pulse 

and monitor your heart rate 

during cardiovascular exercise, 

as having a heart rate 

that is too high can be very 

dangerous. And as always, 

please speak to your primary care 

provider before you start any exercise routine, 

and stop exercising if you experience 

any chest pain or pressure, and seek medical 

attention immediately! 

Options for cardiovascular exercise 

include fast walking, dancing, riding a 

bike, following a work-out tape, mowing 

the lawn with a push mower, or anything 

else that gets your heart rate up! 

Next week I will discuss balance and 

strengthening exercises, and then will 

give some tips for beginning an exercise 

routine. I have already started receiving 

questions about this series, and will begin 

answering those on the following week.

born because of these irresponsible 

people that is sold or given 

away reduces the chances of 

another dog or cat being adopted 

from a shelter. Most of the people 

in town who own intact pit bulls 

that I have asked why the dog is 

not neutered have responded that 

the intention is to breed the dog. 

This is why countless pit bulls are being 

euthanized every day. There are not enough 

no kill shelters or rescue organizations to 

keep up with the demand that these selfish 

people create by breeding these dogs. These 

people usually are ignorant and breed based 

on looks alone. They know nothing about 

genetics or responsible breeding practices. 

Most are not even financially responsible to 

properly provide veterinary care for the dog. 

The result is defective dogs caused by the 

breeding or by the people who purchase 

these dogs and lack proper education on how 

to handle a bully breed. All they care about 

is making a profit from the sale of the offspring. 

They are no better than the pet 

stores or other kennels who specialize in 

profiting off the sale of puppy mill dogs. 

Shame on them. 

Responsible, professional breeders care 

more about temperament, health, and 

preservation of the pedigree than the profit. 

I don’t mean to pick on pit bulls as there are 

other people out there looking to capitalize 

on breeding other breeds as well. Pit bulls 

just appear to be more prevalent. 

Okay, off my soapbox for now. 

Animal control picked up a male black lab 

mix pup with white on chest and paws on 

Easter Sunday. The pup was found near 

Bartlett 

High School. He is an adorable pup, very 

loveable and sweet. It appears that this pup 

was disposed of as no one has come forth to 

claim him. He will be officially up for adoption 

on April 16. 

If you are interested in adopting him, 

please pick up an application located in the 

mailbox outside the shelter gate on Sutton 

Road or at the Board of Health Office in the 

town hall. The pup will be properly vetted 

and neutered before being adopted and an 

adoption fee reflecting this cost will apply. 

The importance of driving safety 

School vacation week is just 

ahead and graduations will be coming 

soon. 

When this is combined with the 

spring weather, many people get 

the urge to go outside to enjoy driving 

around or other forms of recreation. 

I was asked to provide 

reminders to drivers, especially the 

younger drivers, of the importance 

of driving safely. 

Unfortunately, there have been 

too many tragic accidents and 

injuries involving young, inexperienced 

drivers in recent years. We 

have worked with the schools and other community 

groups to promote driving safety. 

Experience is perhaps the most important 

factor in preventing accidents. Unfortunately 

for new drivers, the lack of experience can 

only be corrected by driving. There are many 

driving behaviors that can be major factors 

in crashes. Three of the most common are 

speed, distractions and seatbelts. 

By controlling the speed of a vehicle and 

adjusting it according to the conditions 

around you, you have the best chance to pre-

vent an accident. The speed of a vehicle 

directly relates to the distance needed to stop. 

It takes time for your mind to identify the 

problem and react to it. The faster you travel, 

the less time you leave for these decisions. 

Distractions in and around your vehicle 

greatly enhance your risk of an accident. 

These can be cell phones, people in your vehicle, 

animals in your car, and a variety of 

other possibilities. Anything that can draw 

away your attention from the task of driving 

must be limited in order to keep your focus 

on the road. 

Finally, seatbelt use is a proven life saver. 

Vehicles are manufactured to protect the passenger 

compartment. When you are contained 

and held in your seat, you have the 

At the present time, this pup, which we call 

Rascal, is our only dog. We still have plenty 

of cats for adoption though! 

For anyone wondering where all the stainless 

steel cage units disappeared, Jose managed 

to dismantle the doorway of the shelter 

and get the cages inside with barely an inch 

to spare! The interior of the shelter has been 

“remodeled” to accommodate the cages and 

we are quite happy with the results. The 

interior of the shelter has never looked better. 

Of course, we still need to replace our 

interior kennels and make them accessible 

to the outside kennels but everything all in 

good time! 

For now, we are still in need of dog food, 

cat food and cat litter. Thank you

Fenuccio dominates in Hill 

win over Cougars 

BY COLBY HENDERSON 

SPORTS CORRESPONDENT 

Shawn Kelley photos 

Shepherd Hill's Anthony Fenuccio delivers a pitch. He 

pitched a complete game shutout against Quaboag, striking 

out six. 

WARREN — The Quaboag varsity 

baseball team dropped its third 

straight game Monday, April 12 in a 9-0 

loss to Shepherd Hill. 

Coming off defeats to Grafton and 

Uxbridge to open the season, Quaboag 

was looking to get back on the right 

track as the Cougars hosted the Rams. 

But they were silenced by the arm of 

Rams senior pitcher Anthony 

Fenuccio. 

The Rams got off to a quick start in 

the first, as they loaded the bases for 

senior Dave Wilson, who knocked in 

the first run of the game on a sacrifice. 

Fenuccio retired the side in the first 

and would continue that pace throughout 

the first three innings before allowing 

his first hit of the game in the 

fourth inning, a double by Quaboag first 

baseman Matthew Brady. 

Wilson added more offense for the Rams in 

the third, supplying an RBI single, making it 

a 2-0 score. Wilson would come around to 

score the Rams’ second run of the inning on 

a passed ball. 

The Rams added two more runs in the fifth 

off RBI singles by senior Anthony Preissler 

and Tyler Wieloch. 

Fennuccio continued to dominate in the 

later innings, allowing no hits and only two 

walks after giving up the double to Brady in 

the fourth. Fennuccio finished with a complete 

game shutout and six strikeouts. 

The Rams scored four more runs in the seventh 

inning, as Wieloch and junior John 

Preissler added RBI singles, making it a score 

of 9-0. 

“We were solid today. We did the little 

things right,” said Shepherd Hill coach 

Shaune Ducharme. “The other team made 

some mistakes and luckily we were able to 

take advantage of them.” 

Quaboag’s next game will be Friday, April 

16 at home vs. Ware High School. Shepherd 

Hill travels to Leominster on Saturday, April 

17 to take on Leominster High at 11 a.m. 

HASSETT BREAKS NICHOLS CAREER 

STRIKEOUTS RECORD 

DUDLEY — Nichols College junior pitcher Lindsay Hassett (Oxford, Mass.) broke the 

Bison’s career strikeouts record with nine K’s in the opening game of a The 

Commonwealth Coast Conference doubleheader against Salve Regina Thursday, April 

8, but it was not enough as the Seahawks swept the Bison by scores of 2-0 and 9-4. 

Needing just two strikeouts to break the all-time record coming into the games, 

Hassett accomplished the feat by the second inning and added seven more in the opener, 

which proved to be a pitcher’s duel between the righty and Salve Regina’s Sarah 

Jakiela (Meriden, Conn.), who fanned 10 and allowed two hits in the shutout win. Both 

pitchers went the distance in the game, with Hassett finishing the day with a career 

total 284 K’s after breaking Lauren Person’s (2005-08) all-time record of 276. Hassett 

needed just 276 career innings to accomplish the feat, averaging 1.03 strikeouts per 

inning over her career. 

Santos victorious in Whelen Modifieds opener 

THOMPSON — Bobby Santos 

III of Franklin took over the 

reigns of the potent Mystic 

Missile to score a victory in the 

NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour 

opener at Thompson 

International Speedway for the 

running of the Icebreaker 150 

Sunday, April 11. 

Ted Christopher of Plainville, 

Conn. had to use his prowess on 

restarts to score a victory in the 

Sunoco Modified feature event on 

Sunday. Defending champion, 

Derek Ramstrom of Worcester 

swept the twin bill for the Super 

Late Models while Rick Gentes of 

Woonsocket, R.I. scored Late 

Model honors. Shawn Monahan 

of Waterford, CT, bested a strong 

field of Limited Sportsman competitors 

to score the victory. 

Another champion, TIS Modified 

ace Brian Sullivan of S. Windsor, 

Conn., made a statement with an 

opening day victory. Leo Defevers 

of Brooklyn, Conn. opened Day 

Two of the Icebreaker with a victory 

in the Mini Stock Division. 

Bobby Santos III of Franklin set 

fast time in Coors Light qualifying 

with a new track record on 

Saturday and redrew the pole 

position. He set sail at the start of 

the race; led from the drop of the 

green flag until heading down pit 

road for a scheduled stop at lap 58. 

The young driver was able to 

work his way back into contention 

by methodically moving 

through the field. Santos made 

the winning move when he took 

the lead for the final time on lap 

120. He held off the chargers of 

Ryan Preece in the waning laps of 

the event to score the victory. 

Preece came home second, followed 

by Mike Stefanik. 

Christopher, who pitted out of 

sequence with the leaders, came 

back to finish fourth ahead of 

Todd Szegedy. 

Christopher held back all challenges 

to score the victory in 

Sunday’s installment of Sunoco 

Modified activity for Icebreaker 

2010. After a straight-up start 

from the finish of Saturday’s 25- 

lapper, Keith Rocco started from 

the point for the second race of 

the weekend for the Sunoco 

Modifieds. He immediately had 

company on lap one from 

Christopher, who took over the 

top spot before the completion of 

second circuit. Third running 

Ronnie Silk had his hands full 

with Danny Cates and Kerry 

Malone. The first caution of the 

event flew on lap three when 

Andy Gaspar made hard contact 

with the inside wall. Christopher 

was able to maintain his lead on 

the restart. 

Rocco dogged Christopher 

while Silk, Malone, Rowan 

Pennink and Cates ran nose to 

tail in the second pack of cars. A 

little deeper in the back, Tim 

Sullivan, Woody Pitkat and Bert 

Marvin waged a battle of their 

own. 

Pitkat lost control of his mount 

in turn one, spinning to the 

infield. Sullivan was collected in 

the incident as well. Both were 

able to continue but not before the 

caution flag flew again on lap 10. 

Under the caution, Pitkat was 

joined on pit road by Rowan 

Pennink. Christopher was on top 

of his game on the restart to 

retain his lead. Rocco had doublebarrel 

assault from Silk and 

Malone. Entering turn one something 

appeared to break on the 

No. 79, shooting Malone straight 

into the outside wall in turn one. 

Malone was able to walk away 

from the viscous looking wreck. 

Christopher led on the restart, 

with Silk getting up alongside 

Rocco. Silk drifted high exiting 

turn one taking Rocco with him. 

In the exchange, Rocco lost positions 

to Silk and Cates. After a 

quick caution, Rocco was able to 

move back into the third spot to 

immediately give Silk pressure. 

The battle allowed Christopher to 

gain a car-length advantage. Cates 

was very much a part of the battle 

for the second position. 

On lap 15, Rocco was able to get 

by Silk for the second spot. A spin 

by Chris Jensen put Rocco to the 

outside of Christopher for another 

shot at the top spot. But it was 

Christopher holding onto the 

lead. Rocco continued to run in 

second while Cates began to show 

some muscle to Silk. 

On another restart on lap 17, 

Silk slid sideways through turn 

two while running in the third 

spot. Several cars were collected 

including Sullivan and Nichole 

Morgillo, while others took evasive 

action. Silk was able to maintain 

his momentum and therefore 

his position on the race track 

with the line-up for the restart 

going back to the last completed 

green flag lap. 

Rocco appeared to falter slightly 

on the restart allowing 

Christopher to get away from a 

three-car battle for second that 

now included Rocco, Silk and a 

fully recovered Pennink. Rocco 

got around Silk with five laps 

remaining and set his sites on 

Christopher. Pennink was also 

able to get by Silk. Cates and Silk 

were locked in a battle for the 

fourth spot. The two would swap 

the position back and forth over 

the closing laps. 

Over the final laps, Rocco closed 

on Christopher, but could not 

muster up a challenge. 

Christopher headed under the 

checkers for the victory. Rocco 

settled for second over Pennink, 

Cates and Silk inside the top five. 

Ramstrom completed the sweep 

of Icebreaker Super Late Model 

action in a thriller on Sunday. 

Ramstrom and Mike O’Sullivan 

went door-to-door to open the first 

lap of the 25-lap event. A quick 

caution set up a repeat of the 

start, this time with Ramstrom 

taking advantage to take over the 

top spot. The battle for the third 

spot back was intense between 

Norm Wren, Dennis Maxfield, 

Jim Banfield and Steve 

Desmarais. 

Mike Brightman came to rest in 

turn two after making contact 

with the outside wall to erase the 

comfortable lead that Ramstrom 

had acquired. After the restart, 

the two put on a great show for 

the fans. O’Sullivan was able to 

get the advantage but with continued 

pressure from Ramstrom. 

Norm Wrenn ran alone in the 

third followed by a battle between 

Maxfield and Gelinas. 

On lap 18, Ramstrom got alongside 

O’Sullivan, who maintained 

the advantage by mere inches. 

They ran side-by-side lap-afterlap, 

with O’Sullivan maintaining 

the lead at the stripe by inches 

with each completed lap. Coming 

down for the final lap, however, 

Ramstrom used the position of a 

lapped car to gain the advantage 

over O’Sullivan and the win. 

O’Sullivan had to settle for the 

second position. Wrenn, Maxfield 

and Dave Darling completed the 

top five. 

Rick Gentes crossed under the 

checkers to complete the Late 

Model main event in the second 

position. Following post race 

technical, Gentes was awarded 

the victory. The Late Model division 

followed suit of the sister 

division, with yet another 

O’Sullivan taking part in a fierce 

full-fendered battle. Pole sitter 

Tommy O’Sullivan and defending 

champion Materas went door-todoor 

to bring the field to green. 

They remained side-by-side until 

the No.16 lost power on the backstretch 

on Lap 3, leaving Materas 

all alone at the point and the caution 

flag waving on lap four. 

With O’Sullivan sidelined, 

Materas had marched out to a 

sizeable advantage over the rest 

of the field. Rick Gentes had 

worked his way into the second 

spot but didn’t appear to have 

anything for Materas. During an 

extended green flag run, Materas 

was able to maintain a 10-car 

length advantage over Gentes. In 

the end, Materas crossed the 

stripe for what appeared to be a 

convincing win. Materas was 

cited for a rules infraction in 

technical inspection handing the 

win over to Gentes. Jeff Hartwell 

was moved to the second position. 

Mark Oliveira was originally 

scored in the fourth spot; however, 

his car failed inspection as 

well. Wayne Coury Sr., Jeff 

Hesselton, and John Falconi 

rounded out the top five. 

Brian Sullivan of S. Windsor, 

Conn. began his TIS title defense 

with a commanding victory in the 

TIS Modifieds. Sullivan led green 

to checker to post the victory. In 

the later stages of the race R.J. 

Marcotte appeared to apply some 

pressure to Sullivan but the 

leader was up to the challenge. 

Shane Michalski came home third 

followed by Keith McDermott and 

John Studley inside the top 10. 

Monahan opened the 2010 season 

off with a victory in the Limit 

Sportsman divisions. The 20-lapper 

for the Limited Sportsman 

division featured a heated threecar 

battle for the top spot between 

Monahan, Scott Sundeen and 

Larry Barnett. While the top 

three jockeyed for position, the 

top three spots remained 

unchanged when the checkered 

flag flew. Kevin Bowe and Joe 

Arena rounded out the top five. 

Leo Defevers of Brooklyn, 

Conn. led green-to-checker to win 

the season opener for the Mini 

Stocks. Defevers capitalized on 

his pole starting position to take 

command of the main event.

Schools factor in 4-percent slash in local aid 

BREWER: ‘WE ARE GOING TO WORK LIKE THE DEVIL TO TRY AND NOT LET THIS GET WORSE’ 



CHARLTON — During a joint finance 

meeting between Dudley, Charlton and the 

school district last week, the cold, hard 

truth of a 4-percent reduction in local aid 

would become a reality. 

Sen. Stephen M. Brewer, D-Barre, confirmed 

the four percent drop in both local 

aid and Chapter 70 funding during the joint 

meetings Wednesday, April 7, at Charlton 

Middle School. 

Dudley-Charlton Superintendent Sean 

Gilrein led the meeting off by thanking the 

members of each board for taking the time 

to come out and “advocate for the citizens 

[and students] of the area.” 

He said keeping the lines of communication 

open between all members of town government 

is something he believes to be 

important before town meetings, because it 

brings everyone onto the same page, which 

in turn, “benefits all people in the communities.” 

Gilrein stressed to the more than 20 officials 

in attendance that the district is “heavily 

dependent on the Chapter 70 funding,” 

and with the four-percent reduction, school 

officials are now looking at $966,000 less in 

the fiscal 2011 budget. 

Gilrein said he was pleased to announce 

that the district was spared the proposed 9C 

transportation cuts with the help of Brewer 

and other House members, and their ability 

to hold back the vote. 

Brewer said he and House members 

helped in changing the law that now states 

that transportation funding cannot be cut 

more than local Chapter 70 funding. 

“We are managing decisively with the 

hand that has been dealt to us,” said Brewer. 

He said the current state budget is based 

on “a number of speculative, but real 

assumptions.” 

“The four percent reduction in state aid is 

real,” said Brewer. “I don’t believe that by 

June or July that anyone will weaken [on 

that point].” 

He said he and other legislators are working 

hard to make sure the cuts don’t worsen 

over the course of the next few months 

because he can personally see the affects the 

cuts are having on communities. 

“We are going to work like the devil to try 

and not let this get worse,” said Brewer. “We 

are also not going to be factoring any revenue 

from gaming. It is an ugly hand we 

have been dealt. We can’t roll over debt and 

everyone is taxed out.” 

Charlton Selectman Peter Boria posed the 

question he said was burning on most of the 

minds at the table — would the state have a 

final budget in time for annual Town 

Meetings? 

Brewer responded that he and others 

hoped to see the final numbers by Memorial 

Day, so towns would hopefully have solid figures 

to work off of. 

Dudley-Charlton Finance Director 

William Trifone said right now the district 

is focused on “keeping their heads above 

water.” 

“We have to go back to the drawing board 

and see what other cuts we should propose,” 

Trifone said. “We will muddle through this 

like everyone else has to, but with the most 

limited impact for the kids. Next month will 

be when we [hopefully] have a better understanding.”

During the stretch run, Defevers, 

Scott Michalski and Scott 

Jassaume ran out to a three-car 

breakaway over the rest of the 

field that went 27 cars strong. 

Two cars deeper in the back 

served up some excitement of 

their own. Randy Churchill came 

from the eleventh spot while Mike 

Viens was making his way toward 

the front up from his 22nd starting 

position. In the end, it was all 

Defevers with a commanding win 

of Sc. Michalski and Jassaume. 

Churchill and Eric Bourgeois 

rounded out the top five. The 

hard-charging Viens finished a

Stawiecki’s run 

MARATHON 


a-day smoking habit. 

He said this would be his 15th Boston Marathon, along with the 

P.F Change Rock and Roll Marathon in Arizona and New York 

Marathon, where he ran his fastest time of three hours and 52 minutes. 

“The Rock and Roll Marathon was a hoot,” said Stawiecki. 

“There was a rock group [playing] every mile we ran.” 

Along with running, Stawiecki said he also does martial arts as 

a way to keep fit, but running, he said, is by far his biggest passion. 

“I have met a lot of great people and a lot of crazy people [while 

running],” Stawiecki said with a laugh. “I met a guy once who ran 

the whole [Boston] marathon backwards. His calf muscles were 

the size of my thigh. I guess it is all in how you exercise.” 

He said there is nothing like the support of marathon fans, 

adding that there is no other town that compares to Boston when it 

comes to the commitment of the spectators. 

“There were even samurai warriors at the base of Heart Break 

Hill [one year],” said Stawiecki. “When you hit that 20-mile mark 

you start to feel the pins and needles in your [body].” 

He said the most excruciating experience he has felt during a 

marathon was when the complementary Gatorade provided to runners 

along the course was made too concentrated. 

He said making the drink “too rich” 

dehydrates the body even more than it already 

is from running. This leads to painful cramping 

throughout the body, which he said even 

affected veteran Boston Marathon runner Bill 

Rodgers from making his usual time to the finish 

line. 

“I hope to break five hours and 30 minutes 

[this year due to my knee],” said Stawiecki. “I 

figured this because of the times I have made 

on my trial run, I usually go from where I live 

near Indian Ranch to Southbridge.” 

He said he would be pleased to see his family 

waiting for him at the finish line when he 

crosses this Sunday. 

“My wife Paula will be there with my sons 

and step daughters,” said Stawiecki. “Also, 

one of my friends [George Hetherman] will be 

waiting for me at the 16-mile marker with a 

candy bar and maybe a banana.” 

He said he is always happy to have all of the 

support behind him and especially from family 

and friends who can make their way into 

Boston on Patriots Day.

Dudley resident arrested after 

allegedly stabbing girlfriend 

CHARGED 


Steven Wojnar, the department and 

medical aid responded to the scene, 

where they found Dudley resident 

Melissa Christian, 42, who had “suffered 

serious lacerations to her neck 

and hand.” He said first aid was performed 

by officers on scene and later 

by Dudley paramedics. 

According to Wojnar, Christian 

was transported from the Oxford 

Avenue residence to Harrington 

Hospital at Hubbard Campus where 

she was later transported to UMass 

Memorial Hospital in Worcester for 

further treatment. 

“Her injuries were considered to be 

serious but not life threatening,” said 

Wojnar. “She was scheduled to be 

released later in the day.” 

According to Dudley Police Sgt. 

Paul Ceppetelli, he and Officer 

Anthony DiDonato arrived to the 

scene and met with the reporting 

party, Kathy Bryniarski, who led 

them to Christian. 

Ceppetelli said once introduced to

Christian, he observed that “the 

front of her clothes were saturated in 

blood,” and that the lacerations were 

on her neck and one of the fingers on 

her left hand. 

He said Christian informed them 

that she “had fell on a piece of glass 

and cut herself.” Bergeron was then 

allowed to ride with Christian to the 

Hubbard campus. 

According to Ceppetelli, while he 

and DiDonato were in the apartment 

they observed “a great deal of blood 

in the kitchen and living room area.” 

He said he did not observe any broken 

glass in the apartment, but saw a 

knife on the living room floor “which 

appeared to have dried blood on the 

blade.” 

Ceppetelli said about an hour after 

arriving on scene he received a call 

from one of the paramedics who 

transported Christian who said he 

had heard Christian state she “was 

stabbed by Bergeron.” Ceppetelli 

said he then went to the hospital and 

confirmed this with the paramedic 

and emergency room doctor, who 

stated the wounds on Christian 

“were consistent with those inflicted 

by a knife.” 

He said when he spoke with 

Christian she “refused to provide me 

with any additional information.” He 

said with his own observations along 

with the doctor and paramedic’s 

information he found probable cause 

to place Bergeron under arrest.

Little Leagues to kick off season this weekend 

BALL 


baseball fields for opening ceremonies. 

On Sunday, April 18, both Webster and 

Oxford will hold their annual parades, with 

Webster’s parade starting at 11:30 a.m. The 

meeting place for teams will be Chet’s Smoke 

Shop on Main Street and the parade will finish 

at the Edward T. McGerary Memorial 

Field on Little League Lane. Oxford’s 

Opening Day festivities will wrap up the 

weekend with a parade starting at 11:30 a.m. 

at the American Legion Hall, 227 Main St., 

and Opening Day speeches will take place at 

the Oxford Community Center, 4 Maple Road, 

and the first pitch of the season 

will happen at Stanley 

Johnson Field on Route 12 in 

North Oxford. 

Oxford Little League Board 

member Steve Horgan said 

he has been involved with the 

organization for the last 16 

years. He said as with each 

new season, there comes the 

excitement of playing the 

game and seeing the players 

out on the field enjoying the 

sport he and other members 

hold so close to their hearts. 

“I look forward to success 

for this season,” said Horgan. 

He added that this year he 

is excited to see new field 

lights go up on the 

Greenbrier Fields, which will 

benefit the players in the 14- 

to 16-year-old bracket. 

“The poles are up and we are just waiting 

for National Grid to turn them on,” said 

Horgan. 

He said the project, which was funded by 

the town, came in at approximately $130,000. 

Horgan said at the end of March, he and 

other officials were concerned that this age 

group might not even be able to play due to 

heavy flooding that took place during the 

Players on the Indians, a 

Webster Little League Major 

League team, practice 

Wednesday, April 7. 

OXFORD — Aquarion Water Company has begun 

cleaning water mains in Oxford beginning Monday, April 

5, and continuing through May, so we can ensure that you 

continue to receive the highest quality water. 

Work will take place between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. weekdays. 

Crews will start at the Auburn town line and work 

toward the Webster town line. Signs will be posted in 

each area when work is about to begin. 

During this time, you might notice some discoloration 

spring’s most recent rainstorms. 

“Those fields are right in Oxford’s flood 

zone,” said Horgan. 

He said the good news is that the fields are 

drying out and ready for the kids to take the 

field on Sunday. 

Horgan said he is pleased with the current 

success of the T-ball team, which is now 

three years old. He said it is reassuring to see 

the number of children participating go up 

each year with 25 the first year and now 48 

playing this season. 

A new feature the Oxford Little League is 

offering this year is the Challenger League, 

which according to Horgan, can be found district 

wide, where children with developmental 

disabilities can participate 

in sports on their own team. 

“It is a great program,” said 

Horgan. “The parents are very 

happy and we have about five to 

six kids already signed up.” 

In Webster, Little League 

Players Agent John 

McLaughlin said this year the 

children are just as happy to 

participate as last year, even 

though there are less of them 

signed up than in years past. 

“This year should go great,” 

said McLaughlin. “Even though 

we are 30 kids shorter than last 

year.” 

He said he believes the drop in 

kids is due to the state of the 

economy, but is still disheartened 

to see the fall in the number 

of players. 

Having grown up in Webster and having 

participated in Little League from the age of 

five until high school, McLaughlin said helping 

out with the organization was something 

he fell into naturally. 

“I have been the agent for about four years 

and my dad was the one who actually brought 

up the idea,” said McLaughlin. “I don’t have 

kids, but when I got into it I ended up loving 

it.” 

McLaughlin also coaches a Major League 

team of 10 to 12 year olds called the Indians, 

and he said since the first practice the kids 

have been chomping at the bit to play a game. 

“They are always excited as soon as practice 

comes,” said McLaughlin. 

Turning an eye to Dudley, Umpire Director 

Cynthia Howard said she has loved the experience 

she has had with the group for the last 

19 years. 

“This will be my first year as the umpire 

director,” said Howard. “My husband Dan 

did it last year and now he is one of the 

coaches.” 

She said it was nice to make the hobby a 

family affair and hopes that more families in 

the area will take that into consideration 

when they look for an after-school outlet for 

in your water. This results from the temporary disturbance 

of the water flow, which disrupts naturally occurring 

minerals, such as iron and manganese, that settle in 

water mains. 

You may want to store tap water in the refrigerator for 

drinking and cooking. And, if your water becomes discolored, 

delay washing clothes until it is clear. 

Once the work in your area of town has been completed, 

running cold water from the bathtub tap will clear 


Oxford Little Leaguers were greeted with a disheartening site at the end of March when the Greenbriar Little 

League fields were found flooded from the large amount of rain that fell during the month. 

Oxford water mains to be cleaned 

their children. 

“I love being involved [with the Little 

League],” said Howard. “It is something that 

is local and easy access and gets kids out 

there exercising and living healthy.” 

She said she wants both boys and girls to 

get involved with the league and that it is a 

good way for them to work together as a 

team, make friends and find an interest that 

they can carry with them into middle and 

high school. 

“It is good to see them work together in a 

team,” said Howard.

Dowgiewicz seeking fourth term as selectman 

DOWGIEWICZ 


run.” 

Having grown up in the community until 

he moved to Connecticut in 1982 for the police 

academy, Dowgiewicz said he has always 

stood behind the residents of Webster, basing 

all of the votes he has made as a selectmen on 

what he deems best for the people. 

“I pay taxes and live in this town and [my 

family is] affected by the choices [the board 

makes], but I know that it is not only my 

pocketbook that is [at stake],” said 

Dowgiewicz. “I keep everyone in the back of 

my mind, the elderly, veterans — knowing 

that there are people on fixed incomes.” 

Dowgiewicz said presently, the board members 

he works with now are the best and easiest 

to work with in many years. He said in 

the past it was difficult to get anything done 

on a board where there was “backroom fighting” 

and opposing points of view with no 

room for negotiation. He said now there is a 

calmer atmosphere where people can have 

COMMUNITY CAT CONNECTION 

CAT OF THE WEEK 

My name is Hobo. 

I’m a little more 

than a year old. A 

nice lady found me 

after I was abandoned 

by my family. 

I love kids and am 

good with other cats. 

But I really don’t 

like dogs. I love 

watching the neighborhood 

go by. I 

enjoy naps in the 

sun & really like my 

catnip. I’m healthy, 

but FIV positive so I 

need to be an only 

cat or in a Forever 

Home with only 

other FIV positive 

cats. 

Please stop by the 

CCC at 289 Main St., Webster or call 508-949-0779 if you would like to meet 

Hobo and consider giving him a Forever Home. 

Wed: 11 – 1 & 3 – 6 Sat & Sun: 3 - 6 

their own opinion, but the board as a whole is 

looking to meet in the middle for the benefit 

of the residents. 

“I have had great experiences working with 

the board, especially when Irene Martel [was 

a member],” said Dowgiewicz of the former 

selectman who was defeated in last year’s 

election. “The present board is great to work 

with. I have been on boards where people 

have been at each other’s throats — it is 

something that put the town through a hard 

time. It seems like now everyone is on the 

same page and is looking to make the town 

better. It is refreshing.” 

Dowgiewicz said he believes he brings the 

skills to the table that will best benefit the 

town, with honesty and dependability on the 

top of his list. 

“I am not going to vote for something 

ridiculous that we can’t afford,” said 

Dowgiewicz. “I would not vote for something 

that benefits just one, but the whole community.” 

Dowgiewicz also gave examples of what he 

believes are instances of how well the board 

has worked together with the current members 

over the last two years. 

“There are many positive things happening 

right now, like the [transformation of the former 

A.J] Sitkowski school,” said 

Dowgiewicz, referencing the current senior 

center renovation project. “This is something 

that will help revitalize the town.” 

The Sitkowski senior housing project is 

being developed through the Webster Office 

of Community Development (OCD) and 

Neighborhood of Affordable Housing 

(NOAH) group. The OCD and town hope to 

transform the now vacant school into a senior 

center, affordable senior housing and an 

area where municipal meetings and events 

can be held. The project is slated for completion 

in 2012. 

Town revitalization is one of the most 

important issues for Dowgiewicz and he said 

that in the last two years many steps have 

been taken to set the plan of making Main 

Street a brighter place in motion. 

“[Downtown] won’t be the same as it as it 

was in years past,” said Dowgiewicz. 

He added that speaking with officials in 

other towns like Putnam, Conn., who has 

overhauled it’s downtown area in recent 

years, they agreed that Webster has a great 

space on Main Street to improve upon. 

“We have been looking at Putnam for inspiration,” 

said Dowgiewicz. “[Officials have 

said] Webster is a much nicer area to work 

with it is all a matter of funding and people 

willing to come down [and open businesses].” 

If elected, Dowgiewicz said he is looking to 

move even further forward on the downtown 

project. This comes with the hope of removing 

the set of buildings at the bottom of Lake 

Street, across from Town Hall, which he 

believes are the “biggest eye sore” in the 

area. 

“I think that area would be the perfect location 

for a police station,” said Dowgiewicz. 

“There are many good things coming down 

the pike. My goal has always been the same — 

to keep everything affordable where we live.”

Miller: ‘I speak my mind, 

right or wrong’ 

MILLER 


ly knowing the job. 

“Many people think [the board] clicks their 

fingers and something will get done,” said 

Miller. “Some things are just not in our 

scope.” 

He said it even with road bumps along the 

way there are many things he enjoys about 

the position, which include helping the community. 

“In this [position] I get to help out a lot of 

people,” said Miller. “We are watch dogs, in a 

sense, while setting policy.” 

He said on the other side, “It is like the old 

saying, ‘One day, you’re a hero and the next 

you are a zero — you can’t please everyone.” 

Miller said being a selectman is very 

“rewarding,” and that it is always his goal to 

help people who come forward with an issue. 

“Even if we cannot directly help them, we 

want to be able to point them in the right 

direction,” said Miller. “I am not a formal 

person. I want people to talk and put in their 

ideas and come up with solutions.” 

He said he has worked well with the board 

and that they “trust” one another. 

Miller said one of the things that bothers 

him the most is how the Commonwealth 

treats municipalities, especially in the poor 

economy in terms of funding. He said he 

feels like the needs of the towns can sometimes 

be pushed aside. 

“We are the ones floating the freight,” said 

Miller. 

Miller said his strongest skills as a selectman 

are that he is not a shy person — he is 

willing to make his opinion known or take 

the time to hear someone else’s. 

“I speak my mind, right or wrong,” said 

Miller. “I am able to speak to a lot of people 

too, which gives me a good cross-section [of 

the population].” 

He said even in hard economic times, the 

board works on ways to improve the community, 

but not “nickel and dime the public.” He 

said people have enough to worry about and 

pay for. 

He said it is hard to know the right moves 

to make when it comes to bringing in revenue 

to the town, adding he believes that if people 

think they have the right idea they should 

come forward and suggest it. 

“I welcome the [ideas],” said Miller. 

He said he has high hopes of bringing the 

center of town back to life. Although he said 

he knows that it will never be in the same 

place is it was in decades past. 

“I have lived here all of my life and have 

been in business [in town] for 40 years,” said 

Miller, who owns the Robert J. Miller Funeral 

Homes in Webster, Oxford and Charlton. “I 

have knowledge of the town, the people and 

the assets it has.” 

He said history is something that always 

repeats itself, so feels he needs to be aware of 

the mistakes of the past in town to avoid 

those pitfalls in the future. 

“It is how did we get here and how can we 

correct it,” Miller. “Sometimes by the time we 

fix the bleed it is too late.” 

It is this struggle that he said he and board 

members face all of the time, but work hard 

to avoid. 

“I look forward to one more term. I don’t 

have hobbies or follow sports [so I am devoted],” 

Miller joked. “I totally enjoy [being on 

the board].”

On behalf of the American Cancer Society Relay For Life of the Greater Southbridge 

Area Silent Auction, I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to all the businesses 

that so graciously donated items and services to ensure the auction’s success. 

A very special thank you to Walter Bird and Ann Tremblay and the entire staff at 

Stonebridge Press for their relentless support to Relay For Life. Without the support of 

the Southbridge Evening News and its affiliated publications, the Charlton Villager, 

Sturbridge Villager, Webster Times and the Spencer New Leader, this fundraiser would 

not have succeeded to the level of success that it achieved. Through their advertising 

medias, the four weeks of publishing the updated auction bids for Relay is truly a credit 

to our local small town newspapers.

Nichols tutors attend NEPTA conference 

DUDLEY — Two 

groups of Nichols 

College peer tutors presented 

at the Saturday, 

March 27 New England 

Peer Tutor Association 

(NEPTA) Conference at 

Bryant University. 

Each group complemented 

this year’s 

theme of “Survivor: Out 

Study, Out Smart and 

Out Tutor!” 

The first group of 

Margaret Lilly, Ryan 

Vaillancourt, Krystin 

Kerekes and Justin 

Thurston presented: 

“Surviving a Session by 

Nichols College peer tutors presented at the Saturday, March 27 New 

Keeping it Alive 

England Peer Tutor Association (NEPTA) Conference at Bryant University. 

Through Motivation,” 

which was attended by 

approximately 20 tutors. 

“It was great fun meeting tutors from 

other colleges,” says Thurston, an 

Accounting and Finance major from 

Holden. “When I tutor in my subject areas, 

I like to relate the concepts to the interests 

of the tutee.” 

Caroline Monroe and Ryan Illingworth 

gave a presentation entitled: “Outsmarting 

Learning Style Difference in the Tutoring 

Session.” 

Other Nichols attendees included seniors 

Matthew James, Ji-Young Kim and 

Michelle Kincaid; juniors Constance 

Bennett and David Carrigan; and sophomores 

William Crory, Kate Dyson and 

Jocelyn Tassone. 

By students and for students, NEPTA 

attracts more than 200 peer tutors from 

around New England, with an additional 50 

directors and administrators. 

“NEPTA rejuvenates the directors as 

well,” said Dr. Crystal Bickford, director of 

Nichols Academic Resource Center. “We 

feed off of the energy, inquisitiveness, and 

sheer enthusiasm of the students. Every 

year, this conference reminds me as to why 

I have chosen a career working with peer 

tutors.”

Future Rock give a glimpse of yester-morrow 

Future Rock is a Chicago-based trio that 

exhibits an uncommon grasp of minimalist 

and visceral rock. They perform this Friday, 

April 16 at The Cannery, 12 Crane St., in 

Southbridge. 

Chicago sound guru and promoter Leif 

Moravy put the group 

together in early 2004. 

Skillfully manipulating 

live loops, synthesizers, 

filters and an electronic 

drum kit, the trio succeeds 

in creating a largerthan-life 

sound that sends 

crowds into frenzies. 

Coupled with an explosive 

light show, FR delivers 

an unparalleled 

multi-sense experience. Band members 

Mickey Kellerman and Felix Moreno utilize a 

myriad of synthesizers, electronics, and 

instruments, while drummer Darren Heitz 

blends acoustic and electronic drum timbres 

with live sampling. But the basic focus 

remains on songs with strong melodies and 

grooves people can dance to. 

Adds Kellerman, "We manage to pull off our 

live show while keeping pre-recorded samples 

to a minimum.” 

Opening the show is adventurous technorockers 

Indobox, a band that boston.com 

describes as “new wave-y, synth-heavy” and 

“totally danceable.” The show starts at 9 p.m., 

and tickets are $12 in advance or $15 at the 

door. For more information, visit 

www.12crane.com. 

The Gospel Choir Association of New 

England, led by Executive Director Eric 

Edmonds, returns to Southbridge for a second 

performance next Thursday, April 22, from 

6:30-7:30 p.m. Jacob Edwards Library at 236 

Main St. 

In an ideal acoustical setting, with the barrel-vaulted 

ceiling and surrounded by books 

and other great sound aids, the choir will perform 

their wonderful repertoire. This is a free 

event and suitable for all ages. For further 

information, please call the library at 508-764- 

5426.

Deep in the tropical forest, a 

jeep loaded with a half dozen cartel 

desperados is careening crosscountry 

in pursuit of a lone, 

beleaguered lawman. 

As these blood-thirsty criminals 

catch sight of our hero, two 

hand guns and three machine 

guns simultaneously 

open 

fire. He zigzags 

as dirt and 

woodchips are 

kicked up on 

every side, but 

not single bullet 

grazes his 

b o d y . 

Stumbling 

toward cover, 

the lawman 

tucks, rolls and releases two 

quick rounds in the direction of 

his pursuers. As luck would have 

it, one of his bullets flattens a 

tire while the other punctures 

the gas tank, causing the jeep to 

roll over and explode, killing or 

maiming every one of our hero’s 

enemies. 

In the next scene, the lawman 

has retrieved one of the fallen

Candlelight Vigil for Abused Children — 

Bernadette Circle No. 709, Daughters of 

Isabella, Webster and Catholic Charities of 

South County, are co-sponsoring the Sixth 

Annual Candlelight Vigil for Abused, 

Deceased Children of the State of 

Massachusetts. In observance of this event, a 

Communion Service will be held, followed by 

the Candlelight Vigil for those children of 

Massachusetts who have died from abuse. This 

event will take place Friday, April 16, at 6:30 

p.m., at the Guadalupe Chapel of Sacred Heart 

Parish, 18 East Main St., Webster. The 

Communion Service will be conducted by 

Deacon Tony Sroczenski. The names of these 

innocent victims of tragic circumstances will 

be read, as those in attendance present a flower 

for each victim. This is then followed by the 

candlelight ceremony in remembrance of 

these children. 

This event is a very moving and memorable 

experience for all those in attendance, and it is 

hoped that you will consider bringing your 

families, your neighbors, your friends – this 

event is open to the genera public – men, 

women and children. This is a once-a-year 

opportunity to show your concern for the 

abuse that is taking place in so many homes 

across our state, and to individually pray for 

the souls of these unfortunate children who 

just happened to be the recipients of the breakdown 

of communication in our communities 

and our families. This event will last approximately 

one hour and a half, and is a most 

worthwhile way to spend your time on Friday, 

April 16. Please mark the date on your calendar!

Hollywood cheats 

enemy’s machine guns. After 

deftly disabling several compound 

guards, he walks boldly 

into the command cartel’s center 

and opens fire. This time, everyone 

he shoots is riddled with 

holes. How convenient! 

How is it that three machine 

gunners and two hired gunman 

can’t hit our hero, but he can kill 

a dozen men with one machine 

gun? 

The answer: Hollywood cheats. 

BEYOND 

THE PEWS 

JOHN 

HANSON 

About the artist: It is Tom’s belief that in the 

midst of all the chaos, stress and uncertainty 

people find themselves faced with these days, 

they sometimes fail to pause and look at the 

beauty that’s out there for them to see. Tom 

wants to use his photography to capture 

glimpses of this beauty for everyone to see. It is 

his hope that by taking the time to view his art, 

the viewer may get a brief respite from the

In the 

movies, 

sometimes a 

fender bender 

results 

in major 

injuries, but, 

at other 

times, a 

rollover 

accident 

that sends a 

car off a 

bridge into a raging river leaves 

the driver with a small cut on his 

forehead which slightly inconveniences 

him as he breaks a 

window and exits the car under 

water, so he can swim down river 

and escape those who wished 

him dead. The screenwriters get 

to make it up. They don’t have to 

be honest. They can always bring 

the story around to their preferred 

endings. 

That may work well in movies, 

but real life doesn’t work that 

way. St. Paul said it this way: “Be 

not deceived; God is not mocked:

NORTH GROSVENORDALE, Conn. 

for whatsoever a man soweth, 

that shall he also reap.” 

(Galatians 6:7) In real life there 

are consequences. 

I fear that our society has 

become so media-influenced that 

many people have begun to 

believe that life’s rules can be 

changed; that they can beat the 

odds just like 007. They see so 

many movies in which a husband 

or wife cheats on their 

spouse, negotiates a lucrative settlement, 

and rides off into the 

sunset with their new lover, that 

they truly expect their affair to 

end up that way. But Hollywood 

is cheating. Real affairs break 

hearts and leave children abandoned. 

Cheating in real life 

leaves people lonely and untrusted. 

Incidentally, few of us will 

ever have the kind of money 

movie characters seem to have 

when they are finished abusing 

everyone in their life. 

Movie characters can sin and 

evade the consequences. They 

don’t have to deal with reality 

like you and I do. But, remember, 

movies are so unrealistic that it 

requires a great deal of effort to 

produce a single scene. For example, 

director Stanley Kubrick 

once asked Shelley Duvall to 

repeat a scene 127 times for “The 

Shining.” When Charlie Chaplin

ate his boot in The Gold Rush, he 

did 63 separate takes of that 

scene. In fact, since his boot was 

actually made of licorice, he 

ended up being taken to the hospital 

for insulin shock due to the 

high sugar intake. One producer 

estimated that it takes 400 hours 

of raw footage to produce an 

average film. 

I’m sure every reader is aware 

that Hollywood cheats, but I’m 

not sure we all realize just how 

many messages Hollywood 

preaches that have adversely 

affected the morals and values of 

our society. Think about the 

many politically or socially 

charged movies that have been 

released throughout the years. 

Powerful messages are conveyed, 

but the viewers don’t always stop 

to consider how much Hollywood 

cheated when they made their 

case. You and I live in the real 

world. We might want to think 

twice about letting Hollywood 

serve as our moral or political 

compass, because Hollywood 

cheats — big time!

Prayer to St. Jude 

Most Holy Apostle, St. Jude, 

faithful servant of Jesus, the 

church honors and invokes 

you universally, as the patron 

of hopeless cases, of things 

almost despaired of. Pray for 

me, I am so helpless and 

alone. Make use I implore 

you, of that particular privilege 

given to you, to bring 

visible and speedy help 

where help is most despaired 

of. Come to my assistance in 

this great need that I may receive 

the consolation and 

help of heaven in all my necessities, 

tribulations, and 

sufferings, particularly (Here 

make your request) and that 

I may praise God with you 

and all the elect forever. I 

promise, O blessed St. Jude 

to be ever mindful of this 

great favor, to always honor 

you as my special and powerful 

patron, and to gratefully 

encourage devotion to you. 

Amen. D.G.

Toyota 4Runner Redesigned for 2010 – 

But Loses None of Its Off-road Capability 

BY KEITH GRIFFIN 

The first thing one needs to 

know about the Toyota 4Runner 

is that it is a legitimate truck. 

Unlike most crossover utility or 

sport utility vehicles on the market, 

this is a truck. It drives like 

one, handles like one, and can be 

as difficult to get into as one. 

Make no mistake – buy the 

4Runner only if you really need a 

truck. Don’t go into the 4Runner 

expecting the lap of luxury 

because you’re not going to get it. 

None of those caveats are 

issued as criticism of the 

4Runner. Rather, it’s offered as 

advice that this is a truck that is 

going to take you 95 percent of 

the places any vehicle in the 

world can. It has legitimate offroad 

capabilities.You just may 

not like it if you’re most strenuous 

driving is mildly graded gravel 

driveway. 

The Toyota 4Runner has been 

redesigned for 2010. This is the 

fifth generation of the SUV that 

was first introduced in 1984. 

Since then, according to Toyota, 

more than 1.5 million have been 

sold (and I’m guessing at least 

one million of those owners 

never used anywhere near its full 

potential). 

The 2010 model has more power 

than its predecessor as well as 

better fuel economy. You have to 

love modern engineering’s ability 

to accomplish that trick. 

Makes one wonder how much better 

the fuel economy would be if 

the power remained the same, but 

that would not satiate our constant 

hunger for faster, faster, 

faster. 

The 4Runner is powered by a 

choice of a 2.7-liter four cylinder 

engine with a four-speed automatic 

or a 4.0-liter V-6 mated to a 

five-speed automatic transmission. 

Drivetrain configurations 

include rear wheel 4x2, part-time 

4x4 and full-time multi-mode 4x4 

with a locking center differential. 

All 4x4 models are equipped with 

the V-6 and the 4x2 models have 

either the 2.7-liter four-cylinder 

or the 4.0-liter V6. Optional thirdrow 

seats allow for up to sevenperson 

capacity. 

The model loaned to me for a 

week by Toyota had the 4.6-liter 

V-6 engine. It’s rated at 270 horsepower 

and 278 lb-ft of torque. A 

firm foot is needed on the accelerator 

to quickly merge into traffic. 

However, in most situations its 

power was more than abundant. 

The new V6 engine produces 34 

horsepower more than the prior 

V6, and 10 horsepower more than 

the optional V8 of the previous 

generation that is no longer available. 

(All but the most rabid, 

power hungry enthusiasts won’t 

miss it, either). 

The four-cylinder engine has 

157 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of 

torque. Frankly, a need for a 4x2, 

rear-wheel drive vehicle like the 

4Runner eludes me. There are 

much better vehicles on the market 

(i.e. a Highlander, Honda CR- 

V or any GM product of similar 

size). 

You’re going to pay less at the 

gas pump thanks to improvements 

by Toyota. EPA-estimated 

mileage improves from 16 city 

and 21 highway to 17 city/23 highway 

for the 4x2, and from 16 city 

and 20 highway to 17 city/22 highway 

for 4x4 models. Both achieve 

an EPA-estimated 19 mpg combined, 

an improvement of more 

than 5 percent. My average was 

18.6 mpg combined so more judicious 

drivers might actually beat 

the EPA estimates. 

Above, I said this isn’t a vehicle 

for people with no need for offroad 

experiences. That’s not 

entirely accurate. The 4Runner is 

pretty much a tank when it comes 

to on-road protection. The 

Insurance Institute for Highway 

Safety gave the 4Runner its highest 

marks in its frontal crash testing. 

The IIHS tests vehicles in 40 

mph offset frontal crashes (vs. 

direct head-on collisions, which 

are less typical). Its rankings are 

based on how secure the passen- 

The Toyota 2010 4Runner is not the right vehicle for casual SUV users. It is a true off-road truck that 

rides like one. 

ger compartments is, injury 

severity to the driver, and how 

much the poor crash test dummy 

moves during the rest. 

Speaking of safety, the 4Runner 

comes standard with vehicle stability 

control with traction control, 

an anti-lock brake system 

with electronic brake-force distribution 

and brake assist. Hill-start 

assist control, standard on all 4x4 

models and the 4x2 V6, suppresses 

backward roll when switching 

from brake to accelerator. (That’s 

a vital off-road feature that will 

be most widely used by on-road 

drivers.) 

One thing to keep in mind if 

you need the 4Runner in your driveway. 

It’s not easy to get into. 

Even with a 6’1” frame, hopping 

up into the driver’s seat was no 

Auto Review 

easy feat. Smaller drivers may 

need to invest in a step. 

Pricing for the 4Runner starts 

at $27,500 for the rear-wheel drive, 

four-cylinder model. Most folks 

are going to be interested in the 

more fully equipped base fourwheel 

drive model that starts at 

$30,915. The top of the line 

Limited model with four-wheel 

drive will cost you $39,800.
