<strong>Four</strong> teenaged girls died <strong>in</strong> 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Monday night, victims of 

a <strong>two</strong>-car collision <strong>in</strong> which alcohol is 

believed to have been a factor. 

Surviv<strong>in</strong>g the crash was Kathleen 

Blackburn, 32, of 17 Liberty Street, 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton, the sole occupant of a 

<strong>Four</strong> <strong>dead</strong>, <strong>two</strong> <strong>hurt</strong> <strong>in</strong> <strong>head</strong>-on crash on Route 62 

late model Oldsmobile sedan. Also' 

surviv<strong>in</strong>g was Nancy Angellni, 16, of 

North Read<strong>in</strong>g, a passenger <strong>in</strong> the 

back seat of the 1970 Volkswagen <strong>in</strong> 

which her four companions were kill- 

ed. 

Police retrieved an opened bottle of 

vodka, a bottle of kalhua, and a 

number of beer bottles from the 

Volkswagen and have said that a 

strong odor of alcohol could be 

detected <strong>in</strong> the car. Registry officials-] 

said later that marijuana was also! 

found <strong>in</strong> the car. 

Dead are Lissa Sweetland, 17, of 14 

Wash<strong>in</strong>gton Street, North Read<strong>in</strong>g.

Ceil<strong>in</strong>g puts lid on school re-open<strong>in</strong>g 

Students will probably not be retur- 

n<strong>in</strong>g to the fire-damaged Glen Road 

when w<strong>in</strong>ter vacation ends Monday. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Super<strong>in</strong>tendent of 

Public Build<strong>in</strong>gs Roy McClanahan the 

school, which suffered severe fire 

damage <strong>in</strong> a February 11 fire of 

suspicious orig<strong>in</strong>, is still be<strong>in</strong>g ex- 

am<strong>in</strong>ed by contractors. McClanahan 

said he expected his office to have 

repair estimates later this week. 

Compound<strong>in</strong>g the problem of fire 

damage, McClanahan said, is the need 

to remove an asbestos coated corridor 

ceil<strong>in</strong>g judged by the state Special 

Legislative Commission on Asbestos 

to be a potential health hazard. 

At the time the report was issued, 

early this year, McClanahan said 

there was no immediate damage pre- 

sent. Work was to have been com- 

pleted over the summer. 

However, because of the fire and 

probable deterioration of parts of the 

ceil<strong>in</strong>g. McClanahan said it is possible 

the work would have to be done sooner 

than expected, before youngsters 

return to the school. 

Assistant Super<strong>in</strong>tendent of Schools 

Derek Little told the Town Crier Tues- 

day that a telephone ne<strong>two</strong>rk has been 

set up to <strong>in</strong>form Glen Road School 

parents where to send their children 

to school on Monday. Calls, said Lit- 

tle, would probably be made Thursday 

or Friday of this week.

The collision occurred at ap- 

proximately 11:15 p.m. Monday, on 

Route 62. 122 feet east of the Route 93 

Interchange 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Inspector David 

Pierce of the Registry of Motor 

Vehicles Accident Investigation Unit, 

the <strong>two</strong> cars were travel<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> op- 

posite directions along Route 62 when 

(he Volkswagen, <strong>head</strong>ed east <strong>in</strong> the 

direction of North Read<strong>in</strong>g, suddenly 

veered across the road and struck the 

Blackburn car <strong>head</strong>-on. 

Mrs. Blackburn told police she had 

tried to evade the oncom<strong>in</strong>g car by 

slamm<strong>in</strong>g on her brakes and swerv<strong>in</strong>g 

off to her right, but there wasn't 

enough time The crash was "almost 

Instantaneous,'' Inspector Pierce 

said 

Part of the reason for the high 

number of deaths, he speculated could 

have been due to the size of the 

vehicles <strong>in</strong>volved. 

"It didn't help that one of the 

vehicles was very small," said Insp. 

Fierce. 

- The front and of the Volkswagen 

was demolished almost beyond

I upstream) is about 15 acres of land 

zoned for residences. In the middle of 

that land is high land, 10 feet or more 

higher than is Federal Street near the 

brook. 

Three times, <strong>in</strong> the past 15 or so 

years, prospective builders have 

appeared before the Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Plan- 

n<strong>in</strong>g Board, seek<strong>in</strong>g the right to build 

homes on that hill. In each case the 

right has not been granted. 

The attorney for the last case, 

appear<strong>in</strong>g for the Angel<strong>in</strong>i Brothers of 

North Read<strong>in</strong>g, was Dick Sheppard 

Mr. Sheppard is noted for his abilities 

<strong>in</strong> handl<strong>in</strong>g land cases, <strong>in</strong> the courts. 

In this case he adopted the novel ap- 

proach of hav<strong>in</strong>g only <strong>two</strong> houselots <strong>in</strong> 

the subdivision proposal, one regular 

size, and one encompass<strong>in</strong>g the rest of 

the land, approximately 15 acres. Mr. 

Sheppard did not w<strong>in</strong> his case. 

The appeal before the Plann<strong>in</strong>g* 

Board is based on a new (relatively) 

concept of wetland laws. 

recognition. Its trunk lid was pushed 

back <strong>in</strong>to the w<strong>in</strong>dshield. 

So crushed was the vehicle that 

police and firefighters had to ex- 

tricate the victims with the lifesav<strong>in</strong>g 

^tool called 'jaws of life.' Firefighters 

worked for nearly 20 m<strong>in</strong>utes to free 

the victims. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Insp. Pierce, blood 

samples were taken from the victims 

<strong>in</strong> the Volkswagen, <strong>in</strong> an attempt to 

prove or disprove the presence of 

alcohol, but as of Tuesday morn<strong>in</strong>g 

results had not been confirmed. 

Police also said that one of the girls 

who was killed had been carry<strong>in</strong>g the 

driver's license of an 18-year-old girl 

not present at the time of the acci- 

dent. The license was recovered from 

the <strong>dead</strong> girl's purse. 

The victims were transported by 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton and North Read<strong>in</strong>g am- 

bulances to the Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Regional 

Health Center. Choate HospiUl. 

W<strong>in</strong>chester Hospital and the New 

England Memorial Hospital <strong>in</strong> 

Stoneham. 

Mrs. Blackburn was listed <strong>in</strong> good 

condition at the W<strong>in</strong>chester Hospital 

Tuesday morn<strong>in</strong>g, suffer<strong>in</strong>g from a 

fractured jaw and facial <strong>in</strong>juries. 

Nancy Angel<strong>in</strong>i, the only survivor 

from the Volkswagen, was listed <strong>in</strong> 

stable condition at New England 

Memorial Hospital where she is con- 

f<strong>in</strong>ed to the Intensive Car* Unit with 

<strong>two</strong> broken legs and other <strong>in</strong>juries. 

The other four victims were 

pronounced <strong>dead</strong> after arrival at the 

various hospitals. Doctors at the 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Regional Health Center 

spent 20. m<strong>in</strong>utes try<strong>in</strong>g to revive the 

DeRosa girl, police said, but the 

attempt was futile. 

The accident was the second fatal 

one to occur with<strong>in</strong> <strong>two</strong> weeks to 

members of North Read<strong>in</strong>g High . 

School's Class of 1979. On February 9, 

17-year-old John Eisenhauer was kill- 

ed, and three of his companions were 

seriously <strong>in</strong>jured, when the car <strong>in</strong> 

which they were rid<strong>in</strong>g struck a tree. 

The four had left the Senior Class 

Talent Show only moments before the 

accident occurred. 

The driver of the Volkswagen. Lissa 

Sweetland. was the daughter of Depu- 

ty Fire Chief Ralph Sweetland, Jr. 

and a senior at North Read<strong>in</strong>g High 

School. Her father was not on duty 

when the accident occurred. 

Janet DeRosa was also a North 

Read<strong>in</strong>g High School senior. The 

other three girls <strong>in</strong> the Volkswagen 

were juniors at North Read<strong>in</strong>g High. 

Crash victims were later taken to 

the Croswell Funeral Home <strong>in</strong> North 

Read<strong>in</strong>g. 

A particular irony to the tragedy 

was that a bill to raise the dr<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g 

- age <strong>in</strong> Massachusetts was due for a 

vote <strong>in</strong> the state Senate Tuesday. 

With the top of the Volkswagen peeled back by the "Jaws of life," survivor Nancy 

Angel<strong>in</strong>i is removed from the car. 

Town meet<strong>in</strong>g delayed? 

A move to ga<strong>in</strong> a delay of the March 

1979 Town Meet<strong>in</strong>g until April 28 may 

soon ga<strong>in</strong> legislative support. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to State Representative 

James Miceli a bill has been filed <strong>in</strong> 

the legislature which would allow 

towns with March or April town 

meet<strong>in</strong>gs to delay them until as late 

as June, 1979. 

In Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton, selectmen have 

already taken action to delay the 

- Town Meet<strong>in</strong>g until it is learned what 

action will be taken on Governor 

K<strong>in</strong>g's plan to cap local taxes and 

spend<strong>in</strong>g at last year's level. 

Town Manager Sterl<strong>in</strong>g Morris has 

suggested a date of April 28 for the 

bus<strong>in</strong>ess portion of the Annual Town 

Meet<strong>in</strong>g. If, however, no delay<strong>in</strong>g 

legislation is passed, it would be 

necessary for the bus<strong>in</strong>ess portion of 

the Town Meet<strong>in</strong>g to convene on 

schedule on March 10. Voters could 

then decide to postpone the meet<strong>in</strong>g 

until a later date. Morris said. 

In either event, local elections, the 

first portion of the Town Meet<strong>in</strong>g, will 

be held on schedule on March 3. 

The later date so appealed to 

selectmen that they are reportedly 

consider<strong>in</strong>g a drive to move the Town 

Meet<strong>in</strong>g up permanently to the last 

<strong>two</strong> Saturdays <strong>in</strong> April. 

Such a move would <strong>in</strong>volve a 

charter change and a referendum on 

the ballot, usually a <strong>two</strong>-year process. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to F<strong>in</strong>ance Committee 

Member Arthur Spear such a move 

would allow the Town Manager to 

"get some hard bids" on capital out- 

lay purchases. Under the present 

system, he said, bids are six to eight 

months old and not as firm by the 

time the new fiscal year rolls around 

on July 1. 

Residents 

vs. rats 

meet<strong>in</strong>g 

A group of residents concerned with 

the construction of an animal test<strong>in</strong>g 

laboratory <strong>in</strong> North Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton have 

called a meet<strong>in</strong>g for Thursday even- 

<strong>in</strong>g. Feb 22. 

The Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Board of Appeals 

last week granted Bioassay Systems a 

special permit to operate a test<strong>in</strong>g 

laboratory <strong>in</strong> an <strong>in</strong>dustrial area. The 

residents primarily concerned with 

the laboratory live on Marcus Road, 

very near the new build<strong>in</strong>g. A hand- 

bill which has been distributed to 

publicize the meet<strong>in</strong>g expresses a con- 

cern for water quality, and the effect 

of 7000 rodents. 

The meet<strong>in</strong>g is scheduled for' 8:00 

p.m. Thursday at the Woburn Street

The Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton School Committee Is plann<strong>in</strong>g Co fire a high 

school read<strong>in</strong>g teacher next year to reduce the school department 

budget. The read<strong>in</strong>g program currently employs three full-time 

teachers. Right now they cannot service all of the students 

need<strong>in</strong>g read<strong>in</strong>g help. 

What will happen next year? 

One third (120) students now enrolled <strong>in</strong> read<strong>in</strong>g programs 

will no longer be taught by a read<strong>in</strong>g specialist. 

Classes for students prepar<strong>in</strong>g for the College Boards 

(SAT's) will be cut back. Individual students will 

have to be denied preparatory help. 

Students who are referred for read<strong>in</strong>g help may have to 

wait up to a year to be scheduled Into the program. 

One third of the students referred by the <strong>in</strong>termediate 

schools will have to be denied read<strong>in</strong>g services. 

The existence of Read<strong>in</strong>g Tutors, a program affect<strong>in</strong>g 30 

elementary children and ten high school students, will 

be threatened. 

*. 

The Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton School Committee Is also plann<strong>in</strong>g to fire 2.5 

music teachers. Therefore: 

Either the elementary vocal classroom program, which 

requires 4 teachers, or the str<strong>in</strong>g and orchestral program 

at the high school will suffer. 

Students have been tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g s<strong>in</strong>ce the fourth grade for 

a str<strong>in</strong>g and orchestral program which would have started 

next year, at the high school level. 

Only half of the present music programjatt the high school 

may be offered next year. 

There will be no full time music teacher at the high school 

next- year. 

Will these cuts affect the elementary basic Instrumental 

music program? 

The teachers of Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton strongly urge <strong>in</strong>terested citizens 

and the School Committee to reconsider Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton's educational 

priorities.

Compugraphic: A success story 


A Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton landmark no longer 

serves as an "economic barometer." 

Until recent years, a sign up along 

Route 9S used to proclaim: "Com- 

pugraphic needs 83 (or 84 or 17) peo- 

ple. Nowadays the sign is there but 

the numbers have vanished. 

"If we had to put a number out 

there today, it would be <strong>in</strong> excess of 

400," expla<strong>in</strong>ed V<strong>in</strong>ce Kaseta, Com- 

pugraphic's vice president of <strong>in</strong>- 

dustrial relations, recently. "Our 

personnel department wouldn't be 

able to <strong>in</strong>terview them all." 

There's little wonder, however, that 

Compugraphic is unable to keep up 

with its employment needs. Like 

Topsey, the company is grow<strong>in</strong>g, and 

out-grow<strong>in</strong>g, its fiscal bounds by an 

estimated compound rate of 35% per 

year. 

S<strong>in</strong>ce 1971, Compugraphic manufac- 

turers of phototypesett<strong>in</strong>g equipment, 

tripled Its work force and quadrupled 

its sales. By all <strong>in</strong>dications, the end is 

nowhere <strong>in</strong> sight. 

Last year, 900 employees were add- 

ed to Compugraphic's burgeon<strong>in</strong>g 

payroll, and the construction of <strong>two</strong> 

new facilities, one <strong>in</strong> Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton and 

one <strong>in</strong> Haverhill, have skyrocketed 

manpower needs even higher. 

Currently, the company employs 3,- 

976 people. 2,800 of them <strong>in</strong> 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton. Its sales last year topped 

$181 million. That's a long giant-step 

for the company which, <strong>in</strong> 1966 had a 

mere 61 employees. 

What accounts for this overhwelm- 

<strong>in</strong>g success and phenomenal growth 

rate? 

Ask them at Compugraphic and 

they'll tell you it all began with put- 

t<strong>in</strong>g the horse before the cart. 

The company, said Compugraphic 

Treasurer David Hepworth, decided 

very early <strong>in</strong> its corporate history to 

design its products to fit the needs of 

its potential customers rather than 

the then-accepted practice of build<strong>in</strong>g 

a product first and then try<strong>in</strong>g to f<strong>in</strong>d 

someone to sell it to. 

Begun <strong>in</strong> Brookl<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong> 1960 by <strong>two</strong> 

former Photon employees, Com- 

pugraphic soon developed . another 

valuable policy, the cornerstone of its 

success today. > 

In 1968, phototypesett<strong>in</strong>g was still <strong>in</strong> 

its <strong>in</strong>fancy. Only the largest 

newspapers and publishers could, af- 

ford the expensive systems then on 

the market. 

"We realized there was a much 

bigger market out there if you came 

up with the product at the right 

price," said Hepworth. 

What Ford did with motorcars, 

Compugraphic did for 

phot o typeset le r s... they made them 

affordable. 

By limit<strong>in</strong>g their mach<strong>in</strong>es' 

capabilities to only those actually 

needed by small newspapers, their 

first target market, Compugraphic 

chopped their competitors prices 

nearly <strong>in</strong> half. 

The firm was aided <strong>in</strong> its drive to 

achieve lowef prices by the grow<strong>in</strong>g 

availability of reasonably-priced com- 

ponent parts. 

Compugraphic aimed its first 

product l<strong>in</strong>e at the 1,500 daily and 10,- 

000 weekly newspapers then unable to 

afford their own phototypesett<strong>in</strong>g 

systems. 

"We had the weekly newspaper 

market almost all to ourselves for a 

couple of years," recalled Hepworth. 

"Nobody before us really mass 

produced phototypesett<strong>in</strong>g units, but 

now almost everybody else has par- 

tially developed our philosophy." 

S<strong>in</strong>ce that time Compugraphic units 

have found their way <strong>in</strong>to <strong>two</strong> more 

major markets, commercial and <strong>in</strong>- 

nouse pr<strong>in</strong>ters. Insurance companies 

use them for brochures, colleges for 

catalogues, government agencies for 

documents and forms...the list seems 

endless. 

Newspapers, however, are still the 

major customers. Compugraphic es- 

timates that 79 per cent of the weekly 

newspapers <strong>in</strong> the United States and 

Canada and 58 per cent of all the 

Bailies own at least one Com- 

pugraphic unit. 

The growth of Compugraphic 

parallelled the growth of offset pr<strong>in</strong>- 

t<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the newspaper world. Offset 

pr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g does away with lead type, and 

as a result of its growth, none of the 

old hot lead typesett<strong>in</strong>g mach<strong>in</strong>es are 

be<strong>in</strong>g made today anywhere <strong>in</strong> the 

country. 

Today, Compugraphic occupies n<strong>in</strong>e 

build<strong>in</strong>gs, most of them <strong>in</strong> 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton. Its ma<strong>in</strong> plant on In- 

dustrial Way has sprouted one addi- 

tion after another, until now the dis- 

tance from front door to back 

measures a quarter of a mile. 

"Space is our biggest problem," ex- 

pla<strong>in</strong>ed Kaseta. Accord<strong>in</strong>g to him the 

company is still look<strong>in</strong>g for possible 

sites for expansion. Among these, <strong>in</strong> 

the near future, he said, may be a 

small manufactur<strong>in</strong>g plant overseas. 

Compugraphic's <strong>in</strong>ternational 

market<strong>in</strong>g now is handled by a 

ne<strong>two</strong>rk of 2,100 <strong>in</strong>dependent dis- 

tributers. 

"There aren't too many areas <strong>in</strong> 

this world we don't cover," said 

Hepworth. 

But no organization goes very far 

without people, and Compugraphic 

has made a very def<strong>in</strong>ite habit of be- 

<strong>in</strong>g nice to its employees. 

In addition to all the customary 

employee benefits, the company has a 

profit-shar<strong>in</strong>g plan that distributed 

$2.7 million to employees last year. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Kaseta, the turnover 

rate for Massachusetts Compugraphic 

employees last year was 12 per cent, 

1 far below the national average of 30 to 

25 per cent, he said. 

"I th<strong>in</strong>k it's great, the benefits are 

great, the atmosphere is wonderful," 

said North Andover resident Santo 

Zocco. Zocco. who has spent n<strong>in</strong>e 

years <strong>in</strong> Compugraphic's f<strong>in</strong>al <strong>in</strong>spec- 

tion department, has had a perfect 

attendance record all that time. 

In the company's newest 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton plant, under the soft 

light<strong>in</strong>g of a green-carpeted display 

room with fabric covered walls, Com- 

pugraphic's entire l<strong>in</strong>e can be seen. 

Applications specialist Doreen 

Ferullo, who has an <strong>in</strong>-depth 

knowledge of each unit's capabilities 

and functions, is only to happy to show 

visitors the latest <strong>in</strong> Compugraphic's 

wares. These <strong>in</strong>clude the

F<strong>in</strong>ance Committee Chairman Joyce Brliboii appeari 

to be deep <strong>in</strong> thought af selectmen and f<strong>in</strong>ance com- 

mittee members tost oat budget-cutt<strong>in</strong>g suggestions at a 

Jo<strong>in</strong>t meet<strong>in</strong>g of the board of selectmen aad the f<strong>in</strong>ance 

committee last week. 

Despite meet<strong>in</strong>gs with three department <strong>head</strong>s oa the 

same even<strong>in</strong>g, little additional fat could be trimmed from 

the already lean budget. 

To the right of Brisboij are selectmen Robert Ca<strong>in</strong>, 

James Banda and Aldo Calra. To her left are Town 

Manager Sterl<strong>in</strong>g Morris and selectmen Rocco DePas- 

quale and John Imbimbo. Gestur<strong>in</strong>g with a pencil Is P<strong>in</strong> 

Com member Dick Duggan. 

No fat <strong>in</strong> the budget 


Supervisors from three town 

departments met with Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton 

selectmen last week but failed to 

come up with any concrete 

suggestions for reduc<strong>in</strong>g the town's 

fiscal 1M0 budget. 

If Governor K<strong>in</strong>g's proposed tax and 

spend<strong>in</strong>g caps survive House and 

Senate scrut<strong>in</strong>y this year, Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton 

will be forced to lop a whopp<strong>in</strong>g $345,- 

000 from its projected budget, already 

trimmed lean by the f<strong>in</strong>ance com- 

mittee's cleaver. 

"I took out everyth<strong>in</strong>g that we 

thought we could possibly give up this 

year," Highway Super<strong>in</strong>tendent 

Robert Palmer told the selectmen. 

There is just noth<strong>in</strong>g left." 

Echo<strong>in</strong>g his sentiments were 

Super<strong>in</strong>tendent of Public Build<strong>in</strong>gs 

Roy McClanahan and Fire Chief 

Arthur Boudreau. Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Police 

Chief Paul Lynch had also been <strong>in</strong>- 

vited to participate <strong>in</strong> the roundtable 

discussion, but was unable to attend. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to McClanahan, cutt<strong>in</strong>g 

<strong>in</strong> his department would mean cutt<strong>in</strong>g 

down on services. If overtime were 

cut, McClanahan said, Recreation 

Department and Community Schools 

programs would have to be pared. 

Until three years ago, accord<strong>in</strong>g to 

Chairman of the Board of Selectmen 

Aldo Caira, the Fire Department 

operated with three less men. 

However,"Fire Chief Arthur Boudreau 

said that layoffs <strong>in</strong> his department 

would probably mean do<strong>in</strong>g away with 

one ambulance completely. 

To further complicate matters, the 

Massachusetts Firefighters Associa- 

tion has threatened to withhold 

mutual aid from any town which 

reduces its fire department's 

workforce or equipment. 

"I th<strong>in</strong>k the governor has the right 

idea," said Caira, "but he has made it 

too difficult. I th<strong>in</strong>k you are go<strong>in</strong>g to 

start pitt<strong>in</strong>g one group aga<strong>in</strong>st 

another <strong>in</strong> the town." 

Already the Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton Teachers' 

Association is vehemently protest<strong>in</strong>g 

the planned lay-off of 16.5 teachers for 

the com<strong>in</strong>g school year. 

The town currently has 114 

employees, said Town Manager Sterl- 

<strong>in</strong>g Morris. If it were forced to hold 

the l<strong>in</strong>e at last year's spend<strong>in</strong>g levels, 

he added, it could mean elim<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g 

the jobs of 18 to 20 employees. 

For each employee laid off, Morris 

said, another $4,000 would have to be 

tacked onto the budget for unemploy- 

ment compensation. 

It would be much easier, however, 

accord<strong>in</strong>g to F<strong>in</strong>ance Committee 

Chairman Joyce Brisbois, to hold the 

l<strong>in</strong>e on last year's tax rate. In that 

case, she said, only $118,000 would 

need to be trimmed from the budget. 

This could conceivably be taken care 

of by elim<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g the $204,000 worth of 

warrant articles from the 1979 Town 

Meet<strong>in</strong>g. 

"We can work with<strong>in</strong> that. I th<strong>in</strong>k it 

is the only alternative we can offer 

that is workable," said Brisbois. 

Because of the uncerta<strong>in</strong>ty of the 

eventual course of Governor K<strong>in</strong>g's 

proposal, the f<strong>in</strong>ance committee will 

probably not be able to distribute to 

voters the traditional booklet con- 

ta<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g their budget recommen- 

dations. Instead; Morris has 

suggested that the f<strong>in</strong> com submit a 

one-page report to the town clerk 

stat<strong>in</strong>g that the only recommen- 

dations they could make would come 

at the bus<strong>in</strong>ess portion of the Town 

Meet<strong>in</strong>g, likely to be delayed until 

April 28, or just prior to it. 

The f<strong>in</strong>com and the board of 

selectmen plan to write jo<strong>in</strong>tly to 

Representatives James Miceli and 

Michael Barrett and to State Senator 

Robert Buell to express their 

recommendation that the bill be 

amended to call for a tax cap rather 

than a tax spend<strong>in</strong>g cap. 

Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Representative 

Miceli, debate on the Governor's con- 

troversial bill is likely to beg<strong>in</strong> with<strong>in</strong> 

the next week or <strong>two</strong>. 

Miceli said he had "mixed feel<strong>in</strong>gs" 

about the bill which, he said, House 

leadership considers "flawed." 

"I th<strong>in</strong>k it is a step <strong>in</strong> the right 

direction," he said. "I see flaws <strong>in</strong> it, 

but I th<strong>in</strong>k they can be ironed out." 

One particular area to be ad- 

dressed, Miceli said, was to make 

provision for collective barga<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g 

agreements already entered <strong>in</strong>to 

between towns and their employees. 

In Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton, approximately $190 - 

000 <strong>in</strong> pay raises have been 

negotiated. 

"I support the governor's concept. 

There is a feel<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the legislature 

that there will be a tax cap proposal 

this year," Miceli said. He added, 

however that the bill which f<strong>in</strong>ally 

emerges from the House and the 

Senate is likely to be "substantially 

changed," from its present form. 

"It will probably be someth<strong>in</strong>g the 

towns will be able to live with," he 

said, "and may become more drastic 

on a phased-<strong>in</strong> basis." 

Miceli said he has had a number of 

com muni cations from constituents 

about the tax and spend<strong>in</strong>g cap 

proposal. 

"I tell them the bill that comes out 

of the legislature will not be the same 

bill," he said. "The governor's bill 

will not pass <strong>in</strong> total." 

In the meantime, Miceli and several 

other representatives have filed 

legislation which would allow 

selectmen <strong>in</strong> Massachusetts towns to 

delay town meet<strong>in</strong>gs ord<strong>in</strong>arily held 

<strong>in</strong> March or April until as late as June, 

1979. 

"There is no way you will be able to 

deal with this <strong>in</strong> a March or April 

town meet<strong>in</strong>g," said Miceli. 

The bill to allow a delay of town 

meet<strong>in</strong>gs, he said, will probably be 

heard this week.

nearly (0 calls for frozen

long cold snap. 

Throughout the period 

temperatures <strong>in</strong> Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton 

plummeted to ai low as n<strong>in</strong>e 

degrees below zero and rarely 

rose higher than 20 above. 

Because of the unusual cold, 

water department employees 

worked around the clock on 

John H. Wood, president of 

Melrose Sav<strong>in</strong>gs Bank, 

. recently returned from a <strong>two</strong>- 

i week study tour of the 

People's Republic of Ch<strong>in</strong>a. 

This tour wai made la con- 

junction with the National 

Association of Mutual Sav<strong>in</strong>gs 

Banks' Committee on Inter- 

national Sav<strong>in</strong>gs Banks 

Cooperation, of which Wood U 

a member. The group entered 

Ch<strong>in</strong>a through Hong Kong, 

traveled by tra<strong>in</strong> to Canton. 

In Canton, they visited with 

the People's Bank of Ch<strong>in</strong>a of- 

ficials and the P<strong>in</strong>gchow 

People's Commune. 

"The commune was most 

<strong>in</strong>terest<strong>in</strong>g," Wood com- 

mented. "Because It com- 

prises a complete community 

and <strong>in</strong>cludes all of the 

agricultural, commercial, and 

mill<strong>in</strong>g operation! which one 

would f<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> any developed 

economic community The 

commune had a population of 

almost 70,000 persons and 

covered an area of 67 5 square 

kilometers. It Included a 

number of small factories, 

such as a peanut oil process- 

<strong>in</strong>g mill,'a rice process<strong>in</strong>g 

null, and a farm Implement 

mach<strong>in</strong>e shop for the 

ma<strong>in</strong>tenance and repair of the 

farm Implements used by the 

agricultural segment of the 

commune." 

In Shanghai, the group 

visited the Central office of 

the People's Bank of Ch<strong>in</strong>a 

and discussed many aspects of 

the bank<strong>in</strong>g system with of- 

ficials of the bank, <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g 

the problems of tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g and 

development of bank per- 

sonnel. Tbey also visited with 

members of the City Plann<strong>in</strong>g 

Commission of Shanghai. The 

Plann<strong>in</strong>g Commission is 

responsible for the location of 

all build<strong>in</strong>g construction 

with<strong>in</strong> the city. It is their 

responsibility to try and 

allocate the liv<strong>in</strong>g and <strong>in</strong>- 

dustrial segments throughout 

the city and Its suburbs. S<strong>in</strong>ce 

air pollution is a very serious 

Issue <strong>in</strong> the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese urban 

areas, the Plann<strong>in</strong>g Commis- 

sion tries to allocate new con- 

struction <strong>in</strong> such a manner at 

to reduce the overall pollution 

n the region. 

At a university In Shanghai, 

they spoke with several 

members of the school ad- 

m<strong>in</strong>istration. In Pek<strong>in</strong>g, the 

group visited the bead office 

of the People's Bank of Ch<strong>in</strong>a 

and the M<strong>in</strong>istry of F<strong>in</strong>ance. 

They discussed the personal 

John H. Wood 

bock from Ch<strong>in</strong>a 

several occasions. One call to 

a home oa Cleveland Avenue 

resulted <strong>in</strong> 22 hours of work, 

after which water pipes to the 

home still rema<strong>in</strong>ed solidly 

frozen. 

Evan as late as Tuesday 

afternoon, when 40 degree 

weather seemed by com- 

parison like spriag, 

Motschman had crews out 

defrost<strong>in</strong>g pipes One of these 

jobs was at the Read<strong>in</strong>g 

Cooperative Bank. 

"It's taper<strong>in</strong>g way off now, 

however," Motschman said. 

For the most part, he said, 

frozen pipes are caused by 

high w<strong>in</strong>ds with cold a i 

dary factor.

the function of the sav<strong>in</strong>gs

Interest<strong>in</strong>g to learn that there 

Is an extensive sav<strong>in</strong>gs 

program available to the peo- 

ple of Ch<strong>in</strong>a, both through the 

People's Bank of Ch<strong>in</strong>s and 

the credit cooperatives 

located In the various com- 

mune*. It appears that there 

are over u.ooo facilities 

through which the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese 

people can engage <strong>in</strong> personal 

sav<strong>in</strong>gs, and the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese 

government encourages thrift 

among the population. lathe 

rural areas, about 90 per cent 

of the homes are owned by the 

workers and they can obta<strong>in</strong> 

loan assistance In the 

purchase or build<strong>in</strong>g of these 

homes." Wood commented. 

"In the urban areas, all 

hous<strong>in</strong>g Is owned by the state, 

and <strong>in</strong>dividuals are assigned 

apartments We saw many 

apartment complexes be<strong>in</strong>g 

constructed <strong>in</strong> toe cities which 

we visited. The average 

Ch<strong>in</strong>ese family Irv<strong>in</strong>g unit, 

however, Is relatively small 

by American standards and 

generally each family Is 

allocated about 400 square 

feet of liv<strong>in</strong>g space." 

The group also met with 

William Wayt Thomas, Jr., 

Chief Economic Advisor to 

Leonard Woodcock, the 

newly-appo<strong>in</strong>ted ambassador 

to Ch<strong>in</strong>a. 

Wood said that the trip 

provided an excellent oppor- 

tunity to exam<strong>in</strong>e the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese 

f<strong>in</strong>ancial system on a person- 

to-person basis. He <strong>in</strong>dicated 

that he was Impressed with 

the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese people and their 

dedication to the advance- 

ment of Ch<strong>in</strong>a. He com- 

mented, however, that the 

Ch<strong>in</strong>ese production system 

still appears to be based 

primarily on the use of human 

labor. There appears to be a 

great opportunity for develop- 

ment of the Ch<strong>in</strong>ese economic

advances and modern

<strong>in</strong> these latter areas where be 

felt there may be the best op-

Clip Wildcats, 5-3 

Redmen qualify for tourney 

by Rick Cooke 

No one can hang the label of 

'chokers' on this Tewksbury High 

School hockey team - no matter how 

far they go or do not go <strong>in</strong> the up- 

com<strong>in</strong>g Eastern Mass. Tournament. 

Monday night's penalty-packed 5-3 

w<strong>in</strong> over Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton at the jammed 

Janas R<strong>in</strong>k put the Redmen <strong>in</strong> the 

tourney - and they did anyth<strong>in</strong>g but 

back <strong>in</strong> - avoid<strong>in</strong>g the tie they could 

have afforded and <strong>in</strong>stead post<strong>in</strong>g 

w<strong>in</strong>s over Aust<strong>in</strong> Prep and 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton that stretched their un- 

beaten streak to n<strong>in</strong>e games (8-0-1) 

and left them with a f<strong>in</strong>al overall 

record of 13-3-3. 

More importantly, the second half 

surge put Tewksbury <strong>in</strong>to post season 

play for the first time s<strong>in</strong>ce the 1974-75 

season when current Providence 

College star Col<strong>in</strong> Ahern was 

deposit<strong>in</strong>g pucks <strong>in</strong>to enemy nets. 

The impressive surge also enabled the 

Redmen to qualify for the third tour- 

nament <strong>in</strong> their hockey history. 

Monday night's conquest of the 

Wildcats also elim<strong>in</strong>ated all the se- 

cond guess<strong>in</strong>g and what-ifs? that 

would have engulfed this team had 

they failed to reach their goal of post- 

season play. 

The Redmen had Billerica beaten 

twice but had to settle for a pair of 

ties when the scrappy Indians clawed 

back <strong>in</strong> the f<strong>in</strong>al m<strong>in</strong>utes of each 

game. Chelmsford handed 

Tewksbury a defeat <strong>in</strong> the last m<strong>in</strong>ute 

and <strong>in</strong> the first game between the 

Wildcats and the Redmen it was 

! ' 

A happy bunch 

of Redmen and a 

downcast Cougar 

Welcome to. 

658-2051 

JJUU( 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton who jo<strong>in</strong>ed the ranks of 

the MVHL clubs break<strong>in</strong>g Tewksbury 

hearts with another one-goal upset <strong>in</strong> 

the last m<strong>in</strong>ute. The surpris<strong>in</strong>g 

Methuen Rangers were also one-goal 

w<strong>in</strong>ners over Tewksbury. 

Those momentary setbacks were 

wiped out - first by the clutch play of 

goalie John Gonzalez that helped the 

team to a 3-1 w<strong>in</strong> over Aust<strong>in</strong> Satur- 

day and then the banger-belter past 

the Wildcats who were buoyed by yet 

another outstand<strong>in</strong>g performance by 

sophomore goaltender Rick Ballou 

who f<strong>in</strong>ished with 30 saves to Gon- 

zalez' IS. 

Monday night's game seemed at 

several junctures to be on the verge of 

erupt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to a donnybrook, with 25 

penalties that <strong>in</strong>cluded 12 m<strong>in</strong>ors 

aga<strong>in</strong>st each team and a major 

assessed to coach Bill Cullen's Wild- 

cats. As a result five of the eight 

goals scored came on the powerplay. 

Tewksbury came out slowly <strong>in</strong> the 

first period, play<strong>in</strong>g at an un- 

characteristically cautious pace. The 

Wildcats were loose, and rightfully so, 

hav<strong>in</strong>g beaten only one upper division 

team (Tewksbury) all w<strong>in</strong>ter. 

With everyth<strong>in</strong>g to ga<strong>in</strong> by the upset 

the Cats drew first blood when Paul 

Boudreau scored a powerplay goal at 

6:54 of the first period. 

TMHS senior w<strong>in</strong>gman Bill Andella, 

who was to score the <strong>in</strong>surance goal 

later <strong>in</strong> the third period, <strong>dead</strong>locked 

the game at 1-1 with his first score at 

4:50 of the middle period. The score 

slapped Ballou'r hot hand that had 

Kelt IMi phm 

Paul Erikion (>) leads the 

Tewksbury celebration after Gary 

Richmond scored the third period goal 

that sent the Redmen <strong>in</strong>to a 2-1 lead 

Saturday. Aust<strong>in</strong> goalie Pete Ray- 

mond chose to ignore the TMHS 

celebration..

frustrated Tewksbury <strong>in</strong> the first 

period. 

Sophomore forward Dave Wilkie 

put the Redmen a<strong>head</strong> to stay <strong>in</strong> that 

second period with his fourth MVHL 

goal at 7:12. Defenseman Don 

O'Brien upped Tewksbury's lead to S-l 

at 10:12 before Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton's Jim 

Burns cut <strong>in</strong>to the TMHS surge with a 

powerplay goal at 12:14. It was 

Burns' 11th goal of the season. 

Junior w<strong>in</strong>g Bob Dascoli scored the 

game w<strong>in</strong>ner, camp<strong>in</strong>g to the left of 

Ballou and flipp<strong>in</strong>g the puck past him 

with assists go<strong>in</strong>g to Breen and Tom 

Hill at 13:41. 

The four goal second period surge 

left the Redmen with a 4-2 lead and <strong>in</strong> 

the driver's seat after a penalty filled 

<strong>two</strong> periods that saw <strong>two</strong> scuffles 

break out between Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton and 

Tewksbury players serv<strong>in</strong>g time <strong>in</strong> 

the penalty box. 

WHS capta<strong>in</strong> Steve Mickle brought 

the Cats back to 4-3 with his 

powerplay goal at 2:40 of the f<strong>in</strong>al 

period after which Tewksbury got a 

bit sloppy <strong>in</strong> its own end, giv<strong>in</strong>g the 

Wildcats ample opportunity to tie the 

game at the 10 m<strong>in</strong>ute mark of the 

period. 

Gonzalez came up with a save on a 

float<strong>in</strong>g shot and smothered the puck 

after a scramble before Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton's 

Mark Boudreau was denied a clean 

shot at a breakaway goal by a f<strong>in</strong>e div- 

<strong>in</strong>g stab of the puck by defenseman 

O'Brien who steered the disc <strong>in</strong>to the 

side of the net. 

Andella, who has come up with the 

big play when needed dur<strong>in</strong>g the 

Tewksbury surge, pocketed a goal on 

a 4 on 3 Tewksbury powerplay to ice 

the game at the 1:21 mark of the f<strong>in</strong>al 

period. Bob Dascoli fired a faceoff 

pass to Andella who flipped a 15 footer 

past Ballou. 

Bobby Doughty, Ed Breen. Bob 

Dascoli and Hill passed out <strong>two</strong> 

assists apiece for the Redmen with 

Gary Richmond add<strong>in</strong>g the other 

helper. Dave Ballou had <strong>two</strong> 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton assists with other Cat 

helpers go<strong>in</strong>g to Mickle, Jim Conti, 

Tim McCann and Tim Mor<strong>in</strong>. 

The Redmen held a 35-18 shots on 

goal edge and a wide 13-4 marg<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong> 

the second period dur<strong>in</strong>g the four goal 

barrage. 

Redmen 3-Aust<strong>in</strong> Prep 1 

The Redmen picked up the w<strong>in</strong> they 

had to have to keep their tourney 

hopes alive as senior goaltender John 

Gonzalez came up with 20 saves - 

several of the acrobatic variety to 

spark the must victory. 

The Cougars had knocked 

Tewksbury out of tourney considera- 

tion for the past <strong>two</strong> seasons so the 

w<strong>in</strong> was just that much more satisfy- 

<strong>in</strong>g for Corbett's crew who got goals 

from Bobby Doughty (9:57, first 

period for 1-0 lead), Gary Richmond 

(the game w<strong>in</strong>ner with 1:56 to play) 

and Ed Breen who hit the open net to 

ice the w<strong>in</strong> with 31 ticks rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g on 

the clock. 

The Cougars pulled goalie Pete 

Raymond with 54 seconds left <strong>in</strong> the 

game and defenseman Bob Solon hit 

the senior Breen with a pace enroute 

to the goal that sent the entire 

Tewksbury bench onto the ice for the 

f<strong>in</strong>al celebration that had gotten <strong>in</strong>to

Late charg<strong>in</strong>g Wildcats 

edge Tewksbury, 43-41 

by Rick Cooke 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton High's late charg<strong>in</strong>g 

basketball squad, fresh off w<strong>in</strong>s over 

Dracut and Lawrence Central 

Catholic, used a st<strong>in</strong>gy defense and 

the <strong>in</strong>side scor<strong>in</strong>g of center Dick 

Dowd to edge Tewksbury 43-41 Tues- 

" day night and end the MVC season on 

a high note with the three straight 

w<strong>in</strong>s that gave coach Don Doucette's 

scrappy bunch a f<strong>in</strong>al overall mark of 

7-13. 

Tewksbury, victims of several nail 

bit<strong>in</strong>g defeats, fell victim to yet 

another toughie <strong>in</strong> go<strong>in</strong>g down to their 

17th setback of the season Coach 

Dave Mullen's young Redmen manag- 

ed just three wiris this w<strong>in</strong>ter 

The Wildcats were paced by Dowd 

with 15 po<strong>in</strong>ts and guard Sal Carbone 

with 11. Dave Woods chipped <strong>in</strong> with 

eight po<strong>in</strong>ts for the w<strong>in</strong>ners. 

The Redmen were shut off almost 

completely <strong>in</strong> the second half, scor<strong>in</strong>g 

just 18 po<strong>in</strong>ts and handl<strong>in</strong>g the ball for 

the most part 20 feet from the basket 

The lack of TMHS penetration 

enabled Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton to take a lead 

after a John McNamara corner 

jumper had sent the home club up 32- 

30 after three quarters Tewksbury 

held a 23-19 lead at the half of this low 

scor<strong>in</strong>g, often sloppily played game 

after the Wildcats had led 11-10 after 

one quarter 

Late <strong>in</strong> the game it was Brian Foley 

who turned th<strong>in</strong>gs around for the 

Redmen, pump<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a pair of 

jumpers to give Tewksbury one po<strong>in</strong>t 

leads. 

Foley f<strong>in</strong>ished with 15 po<strong>in</strong>ts to 

share TMHS scor<strong>in</strong>g honors with 

McNamara who was the model of con- 

sistency for Mullen throughout the 

season. 

The teams swapped leads four 

times <strong>in</strong> the f<strong>in</strong>al three m<strong>in</strong>utes with 

Woods scor<strong>in</strong>g via a basel<strong>in</strong>e sp<strong>in</strong> and 

Dowd convert<strong>in</strong>g his own missed shot. 

Foley stole an <strong>in</strong>bounds pass on a 

Tewksbury fullcourt press with 27 

seconds left <strong>in</strong> the game and the Wild- 

cats hold<strong>in</strong>g to a 42-41 lead, but Brian 

missed the ensu<strong>in</strong>g layup and the 

visitors had the ball and a Tewksbury 

foul that Carbone converted for the <strong>in</strong>- 

surance po<strong>in</strong>t. 

The Redmen had <strong>two</strong> more chances 

to send the game <strong>in</strong>to overtime, but 

McNamara missed a corner jumper 

with a swarm of Cats around him and 

time runn<strong>in</strong>g out before TMHS center 

Ralph S<strong>in</strong>clair tossed the ball away on 

an <strong>in</strong>bounds play with three seconds 

left after the Redmen had called three 

timeouts sett<strong>in</strong>g up their f<strong>in</strong>al shot at 

the equalizer. 

Wildcats 67-Central Catholic 59 

Center and capta<strong>in</strong> Dick Dowd was 

the dom<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g force that turned the 

tide for the surg<strong>in</strong>g Wildcats. Dick 

scored a game high 23 po<strong>in</strong>ts to go 

along with 15 rebounds and 10 blocked 

shots that sent the slump<strong>in</strong>g Red 

Raiders pack<strong>in</strong>g. 

Dowd. along with junior forward 

Dave Woods (17 po<strong>in</strong>ts), helped 

Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton dom<strong>in</strong>ate under both 

buckets, pick<strong>in</strong>g up fouls along the 

way as the w<strong>in</strong>ners ga<strong>in</strong>ed a 21-9 ad- 

vantage from the charity stripe. 

Bob Butler helped the Cat cause 

with 10 po<strong>in</strong>ts while senior po<strong>in</strong>t guard 

Sal Carbone hooped eight along with 

Neil Wettler who has come on strong 

for Wilm<strong>in</strong>gton <strong>in</strong> the second half of 

the season. 

Aust<strong>in</strong> Prep 71-Redmen 69 

First half defensive lapses cost 

Tewksbury a w<strong>in</strong> as for the second 

time this w<strong>in</strong>ter the Redmen were 

burnt by the scor<strong>in</strong>g of Aust<strong>in</strong> forward 

Brian Hebert who pumped <strong>in</strong> 24 po<strong>in</strong>ts 

- <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g 11 <strong>in</strong> a second quarter ex- 

plosion - to sew up the MVC scor<strong>in</strong>g ti- 

tle. 

The Redmen fell beh<strong>in</strong>d early, but 

clawed their way back <strong>in</strong>to the game 

thanks to a 23 po<strong>in</strong>t performance from 

junior co-capta<strong>in</strong> John McNamara. 

Mac was helped by the steady play of 

Jim Galv<strong>in</strong> (12) and guard Jimmy 

Mangano (10) Other TMHS scorers 

were Brian Rockwell with eight and 

Ron Wallace and senior center Ralph 

S<strong>in</strong>clair with six po<strong>in</strong>ts apiece.

year for coach Jock Patterson's 

Tewksbury High wrestlers. Several 

youngsters would learn the mat ropes

team on which to learn his trade, this 

Tewksbury team was it.

the f<strong>in</strong>al round and emerged with four
