Plaza.  Behind  Murray  and  Phelan  is  the  famed  Granite  Ball  from  Quincy's  quarries.

Urge  Support  For 

State  Insurance  Plan 


Bv  LAI  RA  GRIFFIN 

Ll.  (io\  riiiiDthy  Murray 
and  Mayor  William  Phelan 
urged  residents  Monday  to 
support  two  legislate  0 
measures,  one  aimed  at 
saving  taxpayers  million  of 
dollars  on  the  city's  health 
insurance  payments,  and,  the 
second,  at  eliminating  a  tax 
loophole  tor 

tele  CO  m  m  u  n  i  c  a  li  o  n  s 
companies. 

Both  Murray  and  Phelan 
vpoke  at  a  joint  press 
cont'ereiiceatC'it\  Hall  Pla/a 
which  climaxed  when 
Murrav  presented  a  fascimile 
check  \ov  %}.5  million  to  the 
mayor  tor  a  local  business. 

The  funds  awarded  as  a 
state  Business  Investment 
Grant  will  allow  Granite 
Communications  Co.  of 
North  Quincy,  to  build  a 
company  parking  garage  at 
its  100  Newport  Avenue 
location. 

Phelan  noted  that   the 
company        had        been 


lllllllllllli 

'^  4  8   7   9   "o   $  8   1   0 


considering  lea\ing  Quinc\ 
as  there  was  insufficient 
parking  for  its  ?5() 
employees.  The  grant,  part 
o\'  the  slate's  economic 
stimulus  program,  is  aimed 
at  "keeping  that  corporation 
here." 

Not  onl>  will  (jramte 
Communications  continue  to 
provide  jobs  for  Quinc\ 
residents,  hut  aKo  create 
patrons  tor  local  firms. 
Phelan  said,  calling  the 
governor's  mcentne 

program,  a  refieshmg  new 
approach." 

Most  of  Monday's  press 
ci>nference  centered  on  the 
need  torcities  to  change  their 
approach  to  employee  health 
insurance.  Both  Murray  and 
Phelan  outlined  the  benefits 
of  havinii  citv  unions  join  the 
state's  Group  Insurance 
Commission  (G.I.C.). 

The  GIC  recently  passed 
both  the  .Senate  and  the  House 
in  Boston  and  will  be 
available  for  city  employees 


shortly  if  lhe>  and  tlieir 
unions  want  it.  The  major 
advantage  is  the  number  o\ 
clu>ices  o\  insur.iiKc  plans 
and  the  clout  that  the  CjIC  Iki^ 
in  negotiating  cost s. for  esach 
plan. 

Phelan  said  that  if 
Quincy's  unions  adopt  ihe 
GIC.  then  taxpavers  could 
save  as  much  as  SS.2  milliiMi 
and  emplovees  themselves 
ctnild  save  $1  ..^  million  m 
premium  pavnients.  Ciiv 
olficials  must  appiove  ihe 
GICandTO'r  ol  each  unions 
members  must  vote  to  jom 
GIC. 

.Murrav  nowd  that  health 
insurance  costs  have 
increased  by  63''(  to  130'y  m 
some  communities  since  he 
and  Phelan  were  elected  as 
mayors  in  2001.  Prior  to 
being  elected  as  Patrick  s 
lieutenant  gov  ernor,  Murray 
served  as  a  city  councillor 
and  mavor  of  Worcester

Building  Permit  Contested 


New  Appeal  May 
Delay  QHS  Start 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

The  long  and  frustrating 
road  to  a  new  $126  million 
Quincv  High  .School  may 
have  run  inti)  another  detour 

A  week  after  the  first 
building  permit  was  issued  to 
begin  clearing  the  way  for 
construction,  the  first  peti- 
tion was  filed  asking  the 
Board  ot  .Appeals  to  revoke 
the  permit. 

Environmentalist  Bill 
.Aylw  aid.  a  longtime  critic  of 
tfic  .cIk'oI'^  placement  on 
Faxon  Field,  is  seeking  the 
annulment  on  grounds  that 
an  earlier  order  by  the  Con- 
ser\  ation  CoiiimissuM-!  is  still 
in  litigation. 

Martin  .Aikens.  chairman 
of  the  Board  ot  .Appeals,  said 
his  boaiti  has  60  dav  s  to  hold 
a  hearing  on  .Avlw aid's  peti-

"The  board  would  decide 
that,"  said  Aikens,

Commission's  Order  of  Con- 
ditions was  handed  down  kist 
Nov.  1 7  approv  ing  ihe  Faxon 
Field  site  for  the  new  high 
school  in  spite  ot  protests 
that  it  was  disturbing  a  wet- 
land. 

The  recjuired  number  of 
10  citi/ens  appealed  the  or- 
der but  the  State  Department 
ot  hnv  ironmental  Protection 
went  ahead  and  al firmed  the 
Conservation  Commission 
ruling  |ust  the  same. 

.An  appeal  Irom  that  de- 
cision vv  as  dismissed  and  the 
case  against  the  State  DFP 
went  on  to  Sult(»lk  Superior 
Court. 

I  he  latest  petition  lo  the 
Board  ot  Appeals  claims  iliai

More  Demolition  Projects 


Condemned  Squantum 
House  Falls  To  Wrecker 


The  house  at  28  .Ashworth 
■St.  in  .Squantum  had  been  a 
neighborhoi>d  eyesore  for 
\eais.  according  lo  Ward  6 
Councillor  Bnan  McNamee 
\\hi>  fielded  complaints  re- 
garding the  proper!)  from  the 
time  he  look  office  to  the  day 
lecenth  when  wreckers  de- 
molished the  building. 

In  late  spnng.  neighbors 
described  the  w  retched  con- 
dition o\  the  house  at  a  City 
Council  meeting.  .At  that 
time,  councillors  considered 
and,  then,  approved  an  anti- 
blight  ordinance  giving  the 
city  more  power  to  deal  w  ith 
neighborhood  eyesores  and 
unsafe  structures. 

The  neighbors"  efforts 
finally  worked. 

■"It  was  a  big  bone  of  con- 
tention in  the  neighborhood,"' 
F^iblic  Works  Commissioner 
Steve  0"Donnell.  said  re- 
cently. 

.According  to  0"Donnell. 
a  demolition  crew  from 
James  Grant  Company, 
Readville,  cleared  the  old 
house  and  the  land  under  a 
Sy.6(K)  contract  with  the  citv. 


"We  rcmoxed  the  stnae- 
tuie  and  cleared  the  land  be- 
cause the  structure  was  un- 
safe," City  Solicitor  Robert 
Quinn  said  last  week,  adding 
that  the  owners  will  be  re- 
sponsible for  the  cost.  "There 
w  ill  be  a  lien  placed  against 
the  property." 

The  Squantum  house  is 
one  oi  several  demolition 
projects  either  completed  or 
scheduled  in  the  city. 

NEED  Corporation  of 
Quincy  cleared  portions  of 
the  Souther  Tide  Mill  on 
Southern  Artery  under  an 
$8,500  contract  with  the  city. 
The  section  burned  in  a  fire 
was  not  considered  part  of 
the  original  historic  structure. 

More  recently,  the  former 
Tan-Line  building  at  148 
Parkingw  ay  was  demolished 
to  clear  the  path  for  the 
Quincy  Center  Concourse 

Seek  Medical 

The  Council  on  Aging  is 
seeking  donations  of  medi- 
cal equipment  that  is  no 
longer  needed  by  the  current 
owner  but  can  be  loaned  to 


under  a$  1 7,000 contract  with 
the  city. 

On  the  summer  schedule 
is  the  demolition  of  the  ad- 
ministration wing  of  Quincy 
High  School  as  the  city  pre- 
pares to  build  a  new  $126 
million  high  school.  The 
demolition  of  the  public 
works/traffic  garage  on  Sea 
Street  is  also  underway. 

City  officials  announced 
recently  that  Francesco

awarded  the  $33,800  contract 
for  the  old  garage  at  the  De- 
partment of  Pubhc  Works  site 
on  Sea  Street. 

The  DPW  garage  is  one 
of  five  buildings  at  headquar- 
ters and  will  be  rebuilt. 
O'Donnell  said  the  employ-

gency calls  and  it  didn't  cost 
the  city  a  penny,  thanks  to 
State  Rep.  Ron  Mariano. 

Valued  at  $250,000  to 
$500,(X)0,  the  Rescue  I  En- 
gine recently  rolled  into 
Quincy  Fire  Department 
headquarters  for  service. 

The  fire  engine  was  offi- 
cially transferred,  at  no  cost, 
to  the  city  by  the  Massachu- 
setts Water  Resource  Author- 
ity (MWRA),  the  region's 
water  and  sewer  provider. 

Mariano  negotiated  the 
transfer  deal  with  MWRA 
Director  Fred  Laskey  after 
learning  the  agency  no  longer 
needed  the  vehicle  for  its  tun- 
nel construction  project  at 
Fore  River.  The  tunnel  pro- 
vides agency  access  to  the 
MWR A "s  pumping  station  at 
the  Quincy/Weymouth  line. 
Mariano  represents  both  ar- 
eas. 

"The  truck  was  no  longer 
needed  once  the  tunnel  was 
completed,"  Mariano  said. 
"These  things  can  cost  half  a 
million  dollars." 

Friendly  Visitors 
Sought  At  COA 

The  Quincy  Council  on 
Aging  is  seeking  volunteers 
to  call  on  the  elderly  who  live 
alone  and  would  welcome  a 
friendly  visitor. 

The  COA  is  also  seeking 
seniors  who  live  alone  and 
would  like  a  friendly  visit 
themselves. 

Call  the  COA  at  6 17-376- 
1508  and  ask  to  speak  with 
Lena  Trouth,  the  friendly 
visitor  coordinator. 

The  Council  is  mandated 
by  law  to  do  background 
checks  on  all  \olunteers. 


"Obviously,  it's  needed." 
added  Mariano  referring  to 
Quincy's  former  Rescue  1 
truck  which  was  declared 
beyond  repair  in  recent  years. 
Basically  out  of  service,  the 
old  truck  had  been  stripped 
of  its  equipment  which  was 
dispersed  to  other  engines. 

As  for  the  MWRA, 
Mariano  considers  the  trans- 
fer Quincy 's  due,  "We  take  a 
lot  of  the  burdens  (of  the 
MWRA)  from  having  a 
pumping  station.  It'sonly  fair 
to  get  some  mitigation." 

At  a  special  ceremony  re- 
cently. Mayor  William 
Phelan  presented  Certi  ficates 
of  Appreciation  to  Mariano 
and  Laskey  and  thanked  them 
for  their  actions  on  behalf  of 
Quincy. 

On  hand  at  the  ceremony 
were  Fire  Chief  Timothy 
Pettinelli,  Ward  2  Council- 
lor Daniel  Raymondi,  Deputy 
Fire  Chief  Gary  Smyth  and 
Firefighter  Ernie  Arienti, 
head  of  the  firefighters' 
union. 

The  city  got  a  "magnifi- 
cent vehicle"  for  free,  said 
Raymondi  when  contacted 
after  the  event.  "Representa- 
tive Mariano  has  been  ter- 
rific. He  brought  all  the  par- 
ties together.  Post-construc- 
tion, it  was  just  sitting  there 
not  being  u.sed." 

Deputy  Smyth  said  that 
Rescue    I    is    now    fully 


equipped  with  the  "Jaws  i^t 
Life,"  difibrillators.  an 
bottles  and  all  the  necessary 
medical  tools  and  shoring 
equipment.  The  Rescue  1  ve- 
hicle will  be  used,  in  such 
emergencies,  as  fire  and  auto 
accident  re.scues.  "It  replaces 
the  original  rescue  truck  that 
was  old." 

Now  that  Rescue  I  is  ready 
for  action,  the  question  is  how 
to  man  the  vehicle. 

At  their  last  meeting 
before  summer  recess.  City 
Councillors  voted 

unanimously  to  urge  Fire 
Chief  Timothy  Pettinelli  and 
Mayor  William  Phelan  to  use 
the  $  1 02,000 collected  in  fire 
alarm  receipts  in  fiscal  year 
2007  to  man  Rescue  1  in 
fiscal  year  2008. 

However,  that  won't 
work,  according  to  Mayor 
William  Phelan's 

spokesman,  David  Murphy. 
Murphy  said  this  week  that 
the  mayor  has  already 
increased  the  overtime  line 
to  cover  manpower 
shortages. 

In  addition.  Murphy  said 
that  funds  collected  through 
fees  must  be  used  to  cover 
the  cost  of  the  specific 
service.  At  this  time.  Murphy 
said  that  fire  alarm  receipts 
help  offset  the  cost  of  fire 
department  personnel 
handling  fire  alarms  and  that 
is  the  purpose  of  the  fees.

Mayoral  Preliminary  Inching  Closer 


A  possible  iiiayoral  pieliminar\  election  may  be 
inching  closer  to  reality. 
It  all  ilepends. 

It  all  depends  on  two  lesser-known  potential 
candidates.  bt)th  otuhoni  ha\e  taken  nomination  papers 
out. 

The  question  is  w  ill  at  least  one  t>t"theni  return  them 
uith  50  \alid  signatures.' 

The  latest  is  Robert  Bi)uss\  ol  Farrington  Street. 
Wollaston.  He  joins  Charles  Dennehy.  Jr.  of  Willard 
Street.  West  Quinc\  w  ho  was  one  ot  the  first  to  pick  up 
papers  m  Max. 

Neither  has  held  electn  e  ottlce  but  the\  aren't  exactly 
strangers  on  the  pt>litical  scene. 

Bouss)  ran  tor  cit\  councillor  at-large  in  2003  and 
finished  sixth  in  a  six-candidate  field.  He  has  also  taken 
out  papers  and  mn  tiled  them. 

Dennehs  took  out  papers  for  ma\  or  tu  o  years  ago 
but  did  not  return  them  Instead  he  ran  on  stickers,  a 
Mitual  political  impossibilit). 

.Neither  Bi>uss\  nor  DennehN  would  be  considered 
real  threats  to  .\la\or  William  Phelan  or  his  major 
challenger.  Tom  Koch,  former  cit\  park  commissioner 
uho  resigned  in  January  to  run  for  ma\or. 

But  BoussN  or  Denneh\-or  both-would  force  a 
September  preliminar)  election  if  the\  return  their 
papers  in  good  standing  b\  the  Jul\  31"  deadline. 
.And  that  would  affect  both  Phelan  and  Koch. 
.A  preliminary  election  would  mean  more  time 
campaigning  and  more  mone_\  to  finance  it  for  Phelan 
and  Koch. 

Who  would  benefit  the  most.^ 
Phelan  has  the  bigger  warchest.  But  Koch  is  doing 
prett)  well  building  his. 

If  Koch  came  close  or  even  topped  the  preliminary 
election  he  would  be  in  great  shape  for  the  November 
final. 

If  Phelan  won-especialK  b\  a  wide  margin-it  could 
be  all  o\er. 

But  both  cc^uld  benefit  from  a  preliminary  battle.  It 
w  c)u]d  detect  w  eaknesses  and  give  them  time  to  make 
changes  before  No\ember. 

.Altht^ugh  Dennehy  and  Boussy  are  given  little  chance 
oi  w inning.  lhe\  might  be  a  factor  in  who  does  win. 
Right  now  it  looks  like  a  close  election. 

.MAYOR  PHELAN  and  his  wife.  Tracey.  are 
celebrating  their  20    wedding  anniversary. 


PHELAN 


TRACEY 


Tracey,  you  might  say.  has  a  footnote  in  Quincy's 
political  history: 
the  wife  oS.   one 
mayor    and    the 
daughter  of 

another.  Arthur 
Tobin.  now  clerk 
magistrate  of 
Quincy  District 
Coui1. 

And  not  to  forget  Shirley  Tobin.  the  wife  of  one 
mayor  and  the  mother  in-law  of  a  second. 
Sort  of  like  Abigail  Adams. 

□ 
TOM  KOCH  estimates  he  has  personally  knocked 
on  some  1.200  doors  throughout  the 
city  in  his  campaign  for  mayor. 

And.  in  doing  so,  has  worn  out  a 
pair  <>{  shoes. 

Has  he  lost  any  weight? 
'         "I"  m  kind  of  up  and  dow  n."  he  says. 
'T  lose  it  while  walking  door  to  door 
but  gain  it  back  eating  late." 
-1 
GEORGE  BURKE  was  kidding  with  PeterO'Connell 
the  other  day  and    *' 
told  him  ma>  be  he 
should    run    for 
mayor. 

O  ■  C  o  n  n  e  1 1 
laughed  and 
replied: 

"No.  Fve  been 
there,  done  that." 

O'Connell  was  a  contender  in  one  of  the  best- 
remembered  mayoral  preliminary  elections  in  1989. 

That  w  as  the  year  Mayor  Frank  McCauley  decided 
not  to  seek  a  fifth  term.  It  brought  out  four  major 
candidates:  former  Mayor  Joseph  LaRaia.  Councillors 
Steve  McGrath  and  Jim  Sheets  and  O'Connell. 

Sheets,  who  had  served  eight  terms  (16  years)  as 
Ward  4  councillor  and  O'Connell.  making  his  first  run 
for  office  won  the  nominations. 

Sheets  went  on  to  win  the  November  final  and  the 
first  of  a  record  six  terms. 

There  are  still  observers  today  who  wonder  what 
O'Connell  would  have  accomplished  as  mayor  with  his 
vision  and  fresh  ideas.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


THIS  IS  A  1927  real  photo  postcard  view  of  the  Meth- 
odist Episcopal  Church  on  East  Squantum  Street  in 
Atlantic.  The  church  had  just  been  built  on  land  that 
was  the  site  of  the  old  Quincy  F^lementary  School.  On 
the  right  was  the  pastor's  home  and  just  out  of  sight 
next  to  it  was  the  original  wooden  church  that  later  be- 
came the  Masonic  Hall.  The  Methodist  congregation 
merged  with  other  Quincy  churches  in  the  1980s  and 
this  building  was  used  as  a  Sikh  Temple  for  a  few  years 


until  it  was  converted  into  condominiums.  In  the  dis- 
tant left  can  be  seen  the  old  Atlantic  Are  station  with 
the  tower  and  beyond  that  the  old  Hancock  Paint  fac- 
tory. Under  construction  at  the  time  of  this  photo  was 
the  center  section  of  today's  North  Quincy  High  School 
behind  the  church.  The  east  wing  of  the  high  school 
was  built  in  1931  and  today  would  block  the  view  of  the 
left.  To  contact  Tom  (jalvin.  e-mail

and  we  were  so  impressed  b\ 
their  eloquence  and  dedica- 
tion and  professionalism. 

During  the  recent  strike. 
we  were  dismayed  to  see  the 
teachers  pitted  against  the 
taxpayers.  Quincy  taxpayers 
should  be  grateful  that  they 
live  in  a  city  with  first-rate 


schools,  even  if  it  means  pac- 
ing a  few  more  dollars  in 
property  taxes. 

Is  anything  more  impor- 
tant to  parents  with  young 
children  than  excellent  pub- 
lic schools!*  Would 
homeowners  be  happy  to  li\ e 
in  a  city  with  a  second-rate 
school  system,  a  city  that 
prospective  homebuyers 
turned  away  from  in  favor  of 
other  neighboring  towns.' 
Would  our  homes  be  worth 
as  much  in  a  citv  that  did  not 


respect  and  properK  com- 
pensate Its  teachers.' 

We  are  sure  that  the  de>.i- 
sion  to  strike  was  a  vor>  dif- 
ficult one  for  the  teacher^, 
but  uc  think  ihcif  determi- 
nation and  rcvohe  was  a 
good  less(in  for  us  all.  If  ue 
really  belie\e  in  the  value  oi 
a  good  education,  let's  value 
our  teacher^  more.  Let's  not 
ask  them  to  bear  the  burden 
oi  a  broken  health  care  sys- 
tem. We  do  hope  that  the  ten- 


tative agreement  reached  be- 
tueen  the  city  and  the  teach- 
ers is  fair  to  the  teachers  and 
that  all  the  residents  of  this 
citv.  even  those  without  chil- 
dren in  the  swtem  appreci- 
ate all  the  hard  w  ork  that  the> 
do.  We  have  been  inspired  bv 
what  we  have  heard  from 
them  over  the  last  few 
weeks.

Quincy  Center  Concourse  Just  A  Hallucination 


Someone  once  said.  "A 
vision  without  a  plan  is  a  hal- 
lucination." 

As  I  look  at  City  Hall's 
push  to  create  the  Quincy 
Center  Concourse.  1  wonder 
if  it  isn't  just  hallucination. 

The  City  Council  voted  to 
formally  approve  the  $.M) 
million  bond  authon/ation. 
which  will  fund  the  Quincy 
Center  revitali/atii>n  being 
pushed  hv  Mayor  I'helan. 

The  centerpiece  for  the 
new  Downtown  Quincy  ap- 
pears to  he  the  Concourse 
cutting  across  Qunicy  Cen- 
ter east  to  west.  I'nder  the 
bond,  llie  city  will  encourage 
new  uses  for  the  Hancock 
Parking  Lot  and  the  Ross 
Parking  (Jarage.  A  thin  oi 
these  monies  is  for  the  Con- 
course. 


According  to  city  offi- 
cials, the  city  dcies  not  expect 
to  take  out  a  $30  million 
bond  but  w  ill  borrow  against 
the  authon/ation.  The  state's 
economic  development 
agency  will  hold  a  public 
heanng  in  Boston  on  June 

:s. 

.Also,  in  last  week's 
Quimx  Siin  w  as  a  letter  from 
John  McDufL  Jr.  concerning 
Quincy 's  rev  itali/atuMi 
plans.  McDufL  w  ho  came  to 
BostcMi  like  me,  remembers 
the  destruction  oi  "blighted  " 
iieighbiirhoods  such  as  the 
West  Lnd  and  the  New  ^'ork 
streets  oi  Boston's  South 
Hnd. 

McDuff  calls  it  the 
"Dow  ntown  Destruction 
Plan"  and  he  does  have  a 
point.  Back  nearly  50  years 


A  'Thank  You' 
To  Cemetery  Workers 


A  sincere  "thank  you"  to 
all  the  cemetery  workers 
who  worked  so  hard  to  get 
the  grass  cut  and  make  ev- 
erything look  nice  in  the 
city's  cemeteries  in  time  for 
Memorial  Day. 


This  holiday  is  a  day  of 
remembrance  for  veterans 
and  of  those  we  love  and  we 
appreciate  the  long  hours 
that  went  into  making  the 
cemeteries  beautiful.

ago.  urban  renewal  rolled 
into  Boston  to  "improve" 
neighborhoods.  Bulldozers 
ra/ed  a  neighborhood  to  im- 
prove It  but  the  onlv  ones 
who  benetlted  were  develop- 
ers. .Affordable  housing  de- 
stroyed, luxury  residences 
built  and  the  poor  shuttled

Are  we  going  to  see 
mega-development  chang- 
ing the  face  of  Downtown 
Quincy?  Some  see  residen- 
tial units  above  current  retail 


establishments  on  Hancock 
Street.  I  can  see  building 
above  some  current  busi- 
nesses in  the  area  but  as  I 
look  southbound  on 
Hancock  Street,  don't  most 
of  the  current  shops  seem 
destined  for  bulldozers  like

Weld  Signs  College, 
Golf  Course  Petitions 

By  FRANK  McCADLKY 

Gov.  William  Weld  has  signed  into  law  two  home  rule 
petitions  that  will  pave  the  way  for  a  new  system  of  government 
at  Quincy  College  and  construction  of  a  golf  course/ 
recreational  facility  at  the  former  landfill  site  in  West  Quincy. 

Mayor  James  A.  .Sheets  made  the  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 
announcement  after  receiving 
verification  from  Weld'soffice.  The 
two  petitions  were  passed  by  the 
city  council  in  March  and  by  the 
state  legislature  on  June  2 1 . 

vSheets  said  he  was  thrilled  with 
the  news.  His  home  rule  petition  for  Quincy  College  calls  for 
the  college  to  be  governed  by  a  new  independent  board  of 
trustees. 

The  other  home  rule  petition  will  allow  the  citv  to  enter 
into  a  lease  agreement  ot  up  to  50  years  with  Quarrv  Hills 
Associates  for  the  construction  of  a  golf  course  recreation 
complex  to  be  maintained  by  the  developers  but  ownedbv  the 
citv.

Easy  Scrod  Fish  Cakes 


One  i>l Our  favdrile  seafi>(>d  is  a  fish  cake 
or  ciixjuette  made  with  any  kind  o\  lish  as 
well  as  salnii>n  . 

Sometimes  I  use  mashed  potatoes  as  a 
liller.  but  toda\  "s  recipe  can  K*  made  sonie- 
what  dillerenl.  Il  depends  on  a  favonle. 

Although  I  siMnetimes  make  a  fish  cake 
\K  ilh  canned  salmon,  this  time  I  made  it  with 
scrod.  and  1  could  control  the  amount  ol  salt 
usually  in  the  salmon  or  even  in  a  fish  cake 
purchased  at  the  market  or  eaten  in  a  restau- 
rant  An>  i>lher  lish  \m11  due  also. 

F.a.sy  Scnxi  Fish  Cakes 

I  pound  of  fresh  fish 

1  stalk  colen   (chopped  finely) 
1  small  t)nion  (chopped  finely) 

1  teasp(H>n  fresh  chopped  parsley 

2  tahlespiNtns  lemon  juke 

1  cup  hread  crumbs  (  and  extra  for 
ntllini:  the  fish  cake) 


salt  and  pepper  to  ta.ste 
vegetable  oil  for  sauteing 
seafood  sea.soning  (optional) 

in  a  pan.  simmer  a  small  amount  of  water, 
just  enough  to  cover  the  fish.  Season  the  fish 
with  salt  and  (vpper  and  the  lemon  juice. 
Place  the  fish,  cover  until  fish  is  done. 

in  the  meantime,  saute  the  chopped  celery 
and  the  onion.  Add  the  salt  and  pepper  and 
the  parsley  and  the  .seafood  seasoning.  Re- 
move from  heat  and  then  mi.\  together  with 
the  bread  crumbs  and  the  egg.  By  now  the 
fish  IS  dt>ne  and  fiaky.  In  a  bow  1.  break  apart 
the  fish  with  a  fork.  Cool  and  then  add  the 
mixture.  .Add  a  little  water  if  mi.xture  is  too 
dry. 

Spread  out  some  bread  crumbs  (1  used

added.  'T  want  my  work  to 
evoke  an  emotional  response, 
not  only  the  first  time  some- 


one experiences  it,  but  every 
time." 

An  active  outdoorsman, 
Roberts  is  rarely  without  a 
camera  and  many  of  his  im- 
ages were  captured  while  hik- 
ing, kayaking  and  sailing.

"I  hope  my  photography 
never  stops  evolving  and  that 
every  day  brings  new  oppor- 
tunities to  view  and  capture 
the  world  from  a  fresh  per- 
spective." Roberts  said,  de- 
scribing his  photography  as 
a  work  in  progress.

The  USS  Salem  and  Na- 
val Shipbuilding  Museum 
went  on  summer  schedules 
this  week,  opening  to  the 
public  seven  days  a  week 
from  10  a.m.  until  5  p.m. 

"We  have  worked  very 
hard  to  make  the  ship  a  fun 
opportunity  for  adults  and 
children  alike,"  said  Michael 
Condon,  executive  director 
of  the  7 16- foot  heavy  cruiser. 

"What  makes  this  such  a 
nice  family  day  trip  is  both 


museum  and  the  sheer  scale 
of  the  ship." 

The  ship  is  set  up  as 
though  it  is  currently  in  port 
awaiting  orders  to  return  to 
sea.  The  public  address  sys- 
tem is  programmed  to  per- 
petuate the  illusion. 

Tours  of  the  ship  and  its 
museums,  both  escorted  and 
self-guided,  are  $5  per  per- 
:»on.  Discount  admission  is 
available  to  groups  of  10  or 
more.

Krabby  Joe's  Seeks  Extended 
Hours  At  Outside  Deck 


By  MARIE  D'OLIMPIO 

The  new  owner  of 
Krabby  Joe's  at  Marina  Bay 
has  appealed  (o  the  License 
Board  (o  extend  the  hours  of 
of)eration  on  the  outside  deck 
to  after  1 1  p.m. 

Kristie  Hendricksen.  also 
the  owner  of  Siro's  at  Marina 
Bay  recently  purchased 
Krabby y  Joe's  in  the  spring. 
She  told  the  board  that  con- 
ditions before  she  purchased 
i(  were  '"horrible"  from  pa- 
trons using  the  wrong  rest 
room,  to  trash  on  the  outside 
doorway.  She  said  their  even 
their  fire  alarms  were  con- 
nected to  each  other 

Hendricksen  said  she  has

painted  and  cleaned  it  up  and 
had  hoped  that  by  owning 
both  places,  she  would  be 
allowed  to  serve  pizza  later. 

She  said  many  patrons 
order  a  pizza,  then  go  out  to 
the  Gazebo  to  eat  only  to 
have  her  go  up  to  them  at 
1 0:45  and  tell  them  they  have 
to  leave. 

She  said  she  will  do  any- 
thing to  accommodate  -  there 
are  no  speakers  outside,  no 
music  unlike  some  of  the  es- 
tablishments in  the  area  that 
have  music. 

She  said  she  lives  at 
Maroina  Bay  and  is  aware  of 
all  of  the  issues. 

She  said  that  other  restau- 
rants only  20  feet  away  from 


her  can  remain  open  until  1 
a.m. 

She  looked  at  the  board 
and  said  "what  can  I  do  to 
make  you  happy  and  proud?" 

Chairman  Joseph  Shea 
who  more  than  once  said 
"we  appreciate  your  candor" 
read  a  letter  from  Ward  6 
Councillor  Brian  McNamee 
who  said  although 
Hendricksen  has  a  "favor- 
able reputation",  he  was  not 
in  favor  of  lifting  the  restric- 
tions, said  it  was  the  "loca- 
tion, not  the  management." 

The  board  voted  to  take 
the  matter  under  consider- 
ation, and  scheduled  another 
hearing  at  the  July  10  board 
meeting.

Jay  Davis  To  Seek 
Ward  4  Third  Term 


Ward  4  Councillor  Jay 
Davis  announces  he  will 
seek  reelection  \o  a  third 
term  that  fall. 

'1  am  excited  about  the 
opportunity  to  serve  the  resi- 
dents of  Ward  4  for  another 
two  years,"  Davis  said. 

"The  Council,  the  Mayor 
and  the  community  have 
worked  together  to  handle 
.some  challenging  issues,  and 
I  am  extremely  proud  of  our 
accomplishments. 

"During  the  last  four 
years,  I  have  worked  with  the 
residents  of  the  ward  and  city 
officials  to  address  a  variety 
of  matters  that  impact  us  all. 

"Many  residents  are  ex- 
tremely pleased  with  the 
progress  the  city  has  made 
over  the  last  four  years." 

One  example  is  the  rede- 
velopment of  Brewer's  Cor- 
ner. He  said  businesses  have 
begun  to  thrive  in  the  area. 
New  businesses,  such  as 
Fallon  Ambulance,  have 
moved  into  the  area,  and 
homes  and  businesses  are 
being  renovated. 

Davis  said  he  believes  it 
is  critical  that  the  city  stays 
pro-active  in  attracting  com- 
mercial development  in  or- 
der to  provide  relief  on  the 
residential  tax  base. 

"I  am  delighted  to  be  part 
of  a  team  that  has  worked 
hard  to  attract  positive  cor- 
porate neighbors  to  the  area." 
he  said. 

Davis  also  pointed  to  the 
city's  Pavement  Manage- 
ment Plan. 

"Since  the  plan's  incep- 
tion," he  said,  "a  number  of 
streets  in  Ward  4  have  been 
paved,  including  all  or  part 
of  Brook  Road;  Federal,  In- 
dependence. Nightingale  and 
PreMdent  .A\enues;  Granite. 
Columbia  .  Cropland,  Com-

Avenue,  Grove  Street  and 
California  Avenue  will  also

As  chairman  of  the  Com- 
munity Preservation  Com- 
mittee. Davis  said  he  also 
worked  to  protect  open  space 
in  Ward  4  including  Turning 
Mill  s  Estate,  a  six-lot  sub- 
division off  Forrest  Avenue. 

Last  summer  he  headed  a 
group  of  educators,  police 
personnel  and  community 
activists  to  start  the  West 
Quincy  Teen  Program.  The 
program  emphasizes  sports 
and  community  service  as 
positive  activities  for  area 
teens  looking  things  to  do 
during  the  summer. 

Davis  has  chaired  the 
powerful  Ordinance  and

Koch  Pledges  New  Steps 
To  Fight  Drug  Problem 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  has  proposed  a  series 
of  initiatives,  including 
stepped  up  enforcement  and 
a  new  leadership  role  by  City 
Hall,  to  address  what  he 
called  a  spiraling  drug  prob 
lem  in  Quincy. 

In  a  letter  to  a  support 
group  for  mothers  of  recov- 
ering addicts,  Koch  said  that 
the  drug  problem  affecting 
every  neighborhood  in  the 
city  is  an  issue  that  "begs  for 
leadership  from  City  Hall," 
and  he  pledged  to  give  po- 
lice the  tools  they  need  and 
to  use  the  full  power  of  the 
mayor's  office  to  increase 
support  and  prevention  pro- 
grams. 

"This  is  not  a  problem 
that  will  disappear  by  ignor- 
ing it,"  Koch  said  in  the  let- 
ter. "You  should  not  be 
forced  to  confront  the  dev- 
astating affects  of  drug  abuse 
on  your  own,  and  we  are  go- 
ing to  change  that.  It's  time 
to  acknowledge  the  facts  and 
tackle  this  issue  head-on. 
Our  police  department,  com- 
munity activists  and  non- 
profit agencies  do  a  great  job 
with  the  resources  they  have, 
but  City  Hall  must  play  a  role 
and  provide  as  many  tools  as 
possible." 


Koch  detailed  the  follow- 
ing initiatives: 

•  Immediately  double  the 
size  of  the  five-person  Drug 
Unit  by  using  existing  re- 
sources and  by  giving  the 
police  the  tlexibility  to  focus 
resources  to  critical  areas. 

•  Increase  cooperation 
with  the  State  Police,  the 
MBTA  police  and  federal 
agencies  to  tap  resources  n(^t 
currently  used  in  Quincy. 

•  Expand  the  role  of  the 
Community  Police  Unit  to 
include  drug  unit  operations. 
In  addition  to  their  regular 
assignments,  community  po- 
lice officers  will  regularly 
work  together  with  detec- 
tives on  investigations,  pro- 
vide information,  and  help 
neighborhoods  and  families 
deal  with  the  aftermath  of 
drug  cases. 

•  Use  the  mayor's  office 
as  the  central  point  for  a  new 
partnership  with  schools, 
police,  non-profit  agencies 
and  hospitals  to  increase 
treatment,  support  and  pre- 
vention programs. 

•  Apply  for  grant  money, 
hold  regular  community  fo- 
rums, and  work  with  exist- 
ing groups  such  as  the  self- 
formed  "Parents  Helping 
Parents"  to  expand  outreach

FOOT  PAIN  AND  YOUR  GOLF  SWING 


, 


If  your  packing  list  for  va- 
cation includes  a  set  of  golf 
clubs,  you  may  want  to  check 
with  your  feet  first.  If  your  feet 
are  not  in  tip-top  condition, 
they  can  negatively  impact 
your  golf  swing  -  which  can 
negatively  impact  your  vaca- 
tion. Pain  the  big  toe,  heel,  or 
in  the  ball  of  the  foot  are  the 
most  common  spots  for  stiff 
joints,  nerve  damage,  or 
stretched  tissue.  Heel  pain  can 
make  a  good  solid  stance  dif- 
ficult when  it  is  necessary  for 
feet  to  be  planted  firmly  for  a 
swing.  Arthritis  pain  in  the  big 
tot  can  make  it  hard  to  follow 
through  on  a  swing,  and  neu- 
roma in  the  heel  of  the  foot 
can  cause  a  lot  of  pain. 

There's  no  question  that 
exercise  is  good  .*or  you,  but  it 
can  put  extra  demaiTfis  on  your 


body.  When  your  feet  hurt, 
it's  all  too  common  to  accept 
this  as  due  to  a  hard  day  at 
work  or  play.  Healthy  feet 
aren't  supposed  to  hurt,  and 
it's  our  job  to  find  out  why 
yours  do.  If  being  active  is  a 
big  part  of  your  life,  consult

into  neighborhoods. 

Koch  cited  a  local  news- 
paper report  that  Quincy  had 
more  reported  drug  over- 
doses than  the  City  ol 
Brockton  and  a  recent  report 
by  the  State  Department  of 
Public  Health  showing  that 
Quincy 's  overdose  rate  was 
significantly  higher  than  the 
state  average  as  "stark  evi- 
dence" that  something  needs 
to  be  done. 

"We  need  to  communi- 
cate with  our  residents,  and 
the  mayor's  office  needs  to 
lead.  That's  what  we  plan  to 
do."  Koch  said.  "A  serious 
drug  problem  affects  every 
person  in  our  city  in  some 
way  because  it  leads  to  so 
many  other  issues.  We  are 
going  to  do  something  about 
it,  and  the  first  step  is  sim- 
ply listening  to  the  commu- 
nity." 

Koch  said  Mayor  William 
Phelan  recently  refused  to 
acknowledge  that  the  city 
had  a  drug  problem,  saying 
instead  that  it  was  only  "an 
issue."  On  the  same  cable 
program,  Koch  added  that 
the  mayor  said  "We  have  a 
real  good  handle  on  that  is- 
sue in  Quincy." 

"From  listening  to  people 
at  coffee  hours,  at  their  front 
door,  and  at  community 
event  across  the  city,  I  could 
not  disagree  more."  Koch 
said.  "And  the  facts  clearly 
back  that  up."

Quincy  Asian  Resources 
Registers  85  New  Voters 


By  CHRISTINE  LAM 

On  May  24.  as  the  se- 
nior class  of  2007  of  North 
Quincy  High  School  was 
signing  out  of  school  on 
their  very  last  day.  they 
were  also  stopping  by  the 
Quincy  Asian  Resources. 
Inc.  (QARI)  Voter  Regis- 
tration booth  to  register  to 
vote. 

Staff  members  at  QARI. 
with  the  help  of  high  school 
volunteers  in  the  junior 
class,  encouraged  seniors 
to  stop  by  the  booth  and 
complete  voter  registration 
forms. 

Crowds  of  people  gath- 
ered to  take  advantage  of 
the  opportunity,  and  before 


long,  all  the  mail-in  forms  at 
the  table  were  completely 
filled  out.  One  senior  said. 
'This  is  great!"  as  she  com- 
pleted her  form. 

More  than  50  forms  were 
completed  within  less  than 
three  hours. 

The  registration  drive 
continued  at  Quincy  High 
School  (after  obtaining  addi- 
tional forms  from  City  Hall), 
also  as  part  of  Senior  Sign 
Out  day.  In  total,  85  com- 
pleted registration  forms 
were  returned  to  City  Hall. 

By  supporting  voter  reg- 
istration. QARI  hopes  that 
more  people  will  vote  and 
take  part  in  the  country.  By 
hosting  Voter  Registration 


Drives  (this  being  the  first 
of  a  number  in  the  plan- 
ning). QARI  hopes  to  in- 
crease the  number  of 
people  voting  on  Election 
Day.  In  particular,  they 
will  target  the  Asian  popu- 
lation to  increase  the  civic 
involvement  of  this  demo- 
graphic. 

Voting  is  a  privilege  - 
and  a  responsibility  -  of 
each  U.S.  citi/en.  Because 
every  vote  counts,  people 
make  a  difference  by  vot- 
ing. With  this  in  mind,  one 
senior  even  asked  if  he 
could  take  forms  home  for 
his  parents  and  relatives.  It 
is  never  too  late  to  register 
to  V  ote '

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Thursday,  June  15,  at  appro.ximately  2: 15  a.m.,  Sgt. 
John  Kelly  was  on  routine  patrol  driving  through  the  park- 
ing lot  of  the  Stop  &  Shop  parking  lot  on  Southern  Ar- 
tery. Sgt.  Kelly  observed  a  Cadillac  parked  by  the  en- 
trance, in  the  fire  lane,  with  the  engine  running.  He  also 
saw  a  male  standing  outside  the  car  looking  all  around. 

As  the  cruiser  neared,  the  male  immediately  got  into 
the  driver's  seat  and  another  male  exited  the  store  with 
numerous  food  items  in  his 
arms  without  a  bag.  Store 
employees  came  out  of  the 
st()re  and  told  the  man  to  go 
back  inside  and  pay  for  the 
food,  then  waved  to  Sgt. 
Kelly,  stating  they  did  not 
need  his  help. 

Sgt.  Kelly  observed  the 
Cadillac  from  a  distance  and 
watched  as  the  male  who 
was  inside  the  store  got  into 
the  car  without  any  food.  Sgt. 

Kelly  check  the  registration  and  learned  the  owner  lived 
in  Quiney  and  there  were  no  warrants.  The  Cadillac  left 
the  area  and  Sgt.  Kelly  resumed  patrol. 

Fifteen  minutes  later,  Sgt.  Kelly  drove  by  Tedeschi's 
Food  Shop  on  Washington  St.  and  ob.served  the  same 
Cadillac  parked  out  front.  He  then  took  up  a  position  where 
he  could  see  inside  the  store  through  the  large  glass  win- 
dows. Sgt.  Kelly  witnessed  the  driver  of  the  Cadillac  taken 
an  item  off  the  shelf  and  conceal  it  in  the  back  of  his 
pants,  under  his  untucked  shirt.  At  the  register,  the  sus- 
pect took  several  items  from  the  candy  shelf  and  put  them 
in  his  pockets  when  the  clerk  turned  his  back. 

The  suspect  then  paid  for  a  sub  sandwich  and  lottery 
tickets  and  exited  the  store.  The  suspect  began  walking 
towards  his  Cadillac,  but  turned  and  walked  in  the  oppo- 
site direction  when  he  saw  the  sergeant. 

The  suspect  stopped  when  Sgt.  Kelly  instructed  him 
to  do  so.  When  asked  what  was  under  his  shirt,  the  sus- 
pect said,  "nothing."  The  suspect  then  walked  hastily  to- 
wards the  Cadillac  and  tried  to  get  in  the  driver's  seat, 
hut  Sgt.  Kelly  stopped  him,  then  searched  the  suspect  and 
found  the  following  items  on  him:  a  large  bag  of  beef 
jerky  from  the  back  of  his  pants,  two  packages  of  peanut 
butter  cups  and  a  candy  bar  in  his  right  front  pants  pocket. 
The  suspect  was  placed  under  arrest  for  shoplifting 
and  when  Officer  David  Cooper  arrived,  he  was  trans- 
ported to  the  station  for  booking.  To  solidify  the  case, 
Sgt.  Kelly  spoke  with  the  clerk,  who  stated  the  suspect 
purchased  the  sub  sandwich  and  lottery  tickets.  The  items, 
valued  at  $10.55.  were  returned  to  the  unknowing  clerk. 
The  Cadillac  was  towed  from  the  lot. 
Duet  to  the  diligence  of  Sgt.  Kelly,  the  suspect,  who 
was  intent  on  shoplifting,  was  removed  from  the  street. 
Nice  Work! 

□ 
H.E.L.P.  works  again!  On  Friday,  June  22,  at  approxi- 
mately 4:35  p.m.,  a  citizen  called  the  police  to  report  an 
elderly  woman  appeared  lost  and  was  wandering  about  at 
the  comer  of  Berkeley  and  Clarendon  Streets.  The  citi- 
zen spoke  with  the  woman  and  noticed  she  was  wearing 
a  gray  rubber  H.E.L.P.  bracelet  with  the  Quiney  Police 
number  on  it. 

When  Officer  Mark  Smith  arrived,  he  was  unable  to 
get  the  woman's  name,  but  gave  the  description  to  the 
dispatcher,  who  went  through  H.E.L.P.  files  and  deter- 
mined the  woman  lived  nearby.  As  Officer  Smith  drove 
the  woman  to  her  home,  she  recognized  the  area  and 
thanked  the  officer  for  his  help.

FIRE    SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Emergency  Dispensing  Sites 
Training  At  City  Hall  July  11 


Gasoline  And  Propane 


A  newly  appointed  lieu- 
tenant asked  ine  a  question 
the  other  day,  and  while 
thinking  ot  my  answer  later 
on  the  ride  home,  the  rollow- 
ing  incident  came  to  mind. 

When  you  first  become  an 
officer  on  a  fire  department, 
you're  a  firefighter  one  day. 
promoted  on  another  and  sit- 
ting in  the  front  seat  of  an 
apparatus,  taking  the  lead  for 
3  to  6  men  at  an  incident  the 
next.  Years  ago,  when  I  first 
became  a  lieutena...'  T  re- 
sponded to  a  fully  involved 
car  fire. 

This  incident  was  my  first 
fire  incident  as  an  officer.  By 
two-way  radio  1  reported  that 
we  had  a  fully  involved  car 
fire.  I  then  jumped  off  the 
apparatus,  grabbed  an  axe, 
and  continued  performing 
the  routine  of  a  firefighter 
joining  in  on  extinguishment 
efforts  with  the  other  two 
firefighters. 

We  quickly  extinguished 
the  fire,  overhauled  hot 
spots,  I  gathered  the  needed 
information  for  my  report 
and  cleared  the  scene,  report- 
ing the  same  over  the  radio. 
Our  eiTorts  were  direct,  ef- 
fective and  successful. 

While  returning  to  the  sta- 
tion 1  reviewed  my  perfor- 
mance thinking  the  incident 
went  quite  well,  when  it  oc- 
curred to  me  that  I  failed 
miserably.  I'll  never  forget 
the  impact  when  that  thought 
occurred  to  me,  "I  failed  mis- 
erably!" 

Why?  It's  not  enough  to 
serve  the  public  in  these  po- 
sitions; you  have  to  leam  to 
do  so  mindful  of  firefighter 
safety  as  well.  Successful 
emergency  intervention  re- 
quires the  wherewithal  not  to 
become  part  of  the  problem. 

How  is  that  accom- 
plished? It's  not  enough  to 
have  experience;  it's  not 
enough  to  be  well-trained,  an 
olficer  must  have  the  ability 
to  get  the  job  done,  while 
maintaining  his  focus  on  the 
safety  and  welfare  of  his  men 
at  the  same  time,  once  as- 
sured, then  i  should  ha\e 
joined  in  on  extinguishment 
efforts.  I  never  forgot  that 
lesson  and  applied  it  at  ev- 
ery incident  thereafter. 


So  back  to  the  question 
posed  to  me  by  the  new  lieu- 
tenant. I  was  asked  what  I 
thought  were  the  riskiest  oc- 
cupancies to  respond  to 
within  Quincy.  Instanta- 
neously, I  thought  of  residen- 
tial ba.sements.  Why? 

An  officer  in  a  district  has 
the  opportunity  to  prefire 
plan  all  sorts  of  occupancies. 
He  can  visit  commercial 
property,  familiarizing  him- 
self with  specific  hazards  lo- 
cated within  them,  or  the 
structure  itself. 

As  a  lieutenant  in  sup- 
pression, if  there  were  com- 
bustible metals  located 
within  a  building,  I  wanted 
to  know  what  type  and 
where.  If  flammable  or  com- 
bustible liquids  were  present, 
how  much  was  there  and 
where  specifically  was  it 
stored.  I  can  fill  the  page  with 
examples  while  the  motiva- 
tion for  doing  so  was  to  pre- 
pare for  whatever  type  of 
specific  emergency  could  be 
faced,  while  that  proactive 
effort  could  minimize  prop- 
erty loss  should  there  be  an 
incident,  help  protect  lives 
against  specific  hazards  and 
protect  firefighters  during 
extinguishment  efforts. 

Some  occupancies  don't 
necessarily  require  specific 
prefire  planning.  For  ex- 
ample, if  approaching  an  in- 
cident, the  type  of  business 
can  tell  you  what  sorts  of 
hazards  you'll  typically  en- 
counter. In  an  auto  repair 
garage  for  example  where 
there  is  minimal  storage,  I'd 
be  mindful  of  fire  extending 
to  acetylene  cylinders  and 
flammable  liquids. 

In  a  residential  shed  or 
garage,  there  might  be  stored 
gasoline,  a  propane  cylinder 
for  a  grill,  pesticides  or  fer- 
tilizer for  lawn  care.  As  an 
officer,  these  are  issues  that 
concem  me  anil  that  1  would 
convey  to  others  as  we  ap- 
proach a  fire.  Each  type  o\ 
occupancy  has  its  own  haz- 
ards and  should  he  ap- 
proached mindful  of  those 
hazards.  So  often  these  !)c 
cupancies  can  be  visited  to 
develop  a  prefire  plan,  some- 
times they  don't  have  to  be. 
So  why  did  1  instantly  think 


a  residential  basement  fire  is 
.so  risky? 

We  typically  have  no  ac- 
cess to  residential  property, 
while  we  have  little  input 
into  what  owners  and  resi- 
dents store  within  them.  Pro- 
pane grills  are  great,  but 
where  is  that  cylinder  being 
stored  when  not  in  use,  or 
where  is  that  extra  cylinder 
stored?  Is  there  gasoline  in 
that  basement?  If  there's  a 
lawn,  there's  a  lawnmower 
that  probably  runs  on  gaso- 
line. Gasoline  exposed  to  tire 
in  a  confined  space  can  be 
explosive.  I've  witnessed  it 
blowing  the  walls  of  a  build- 
ing off  its  foundation.  A  pro- 
pane cylinder  exposed  to  ex- 
cessive heat  can  BLEVE 
dwarfing  the  effects  of  a 
gasoline  explosion,  affecting 
an  entire  neighborhood. 

When  a  firefighter  ap- 
proaches an  interior  residen- 
tial fire,  it  is  typically  done 
in  zero  visibility.  Smoke  ob- 
scures a  firefighter's  efforts 
while  he  blindly  goes  for- 
ward attempting  to  find  the 
source  of  heat  and  smoke. 
Once  found,  the  water  from 
a  charged  hose  line  is  ap- 
plied. He  has  no  idea  what  is 
stored  within,  trusting  that 
there  are  ordinary  combus- 
tibles and  that  water,  turnout 
gear,  an  air  suppl\  and  a  team 
effort  will  see  him  through 
the  extinguishment  effort. 
But  what  happens  in  such  an 
incident  if  a  homeowner  de- 
fies conventional  wisdom 
and  stores  gasoline  or  pro- 
pane within  a  basement ,' 

Suffice  to  say  that  a  city 
does  not  need  a  furniture  fac- 
tory, as  was  the  case  in  South 
Carolina,  to  in\  ite  a  fatal  di- 
saster. While  I'm  not  sug- 
gesting here  that  we  go  back 
to  the  "".^Os"  pushing  manu- 
ally operated  lawnmowers, 
or  w  ait  for  charcoals  to  heat 
and  glow.  1  am  asking  that 
gasoline  and  propane  he 
stored  safely  and  correct]) 
tor  all  in\()|\ed. 

(Kisoline  and  propane 
ha\e  no  place  stored  uithin 
a  residence.  In  lire  pre\en- 
tion,  we  are  here  to  ansuer 
any  questions  you  ma\  ha\  c 
regarding  their  proper  stoi- 
aee.  Thank  you  I

Murrfiy  explained  the 
telecommi\a^cations  tax 
loophole  v^h  ,^!  allows  such 
companies  i.*  .ap  their  tax 
payments  to  local  cities  and 
towns.  Murray  said  it  was 
important  to  "cloce  tha 


archaic  tax  e.xemption"  for 
the  sake  of  taxpayers  and 
small  businesses. 

"Everyone  should  be 
paying  their  fair  share,:" 
Murray  said. 

As  for  Quincy,  Phelan  said 
the  city  would  save  over  $  1 
million  it  it  passes. 


After  the  press 
conference,  several  members 
ofl.B.E.W.Local  2222  tried 
to  convince  Phelan  that 
rolling  back  the  loophole  was 
not  good  for  business.  Local 
2222  serves  Verizon 
customers. 


Ma\or  William  Phelan 
and  the  Quincy  Health  De- 
partment are  ctMitinuing  to 
recruit  and  train  \i>lunteers 
for  the  Region  4B  Medical 
Reserve  Corps  (MRC),  a 
cadre  i>f  trained  medical  and 
non-medical  professional 
prepared  to  assist  officials 
during  an  emergency. 

The  Quincy  Health  De- 
partment will  host  Emer- 
gency Dispensing  Sites 
(EDS)  training.  Part  1:  The 
Mechanics  for  Medical  Re- 
serve Corps  members  and 
the  public  on  Wed.,  July  11 
at  6  p.m.  in  the  second  floor 
conference  room  in  Quincy 
City  Hall,  1 305  Hancock  St, 
Quincy  Center 

The  class  will  aim  to 
teach  volunteers  about  set- 
ting up  a  mass  prophylaxis 
operation,  orient  attendees  to 
the  function  of  the  different 
stations  in  an  EDS  site  and 
introduce  the  roles  required 
to  staff  the  stations. 

Prior  to  the  training  there 
will  be  a  meeting  of  the 


QuiiK\  Medical  Keser\e 
C'oi|is  at  >.M)  p.m.  to  discuss 
the  direction  of  the  MRC  unit 
and  outline  ohjectives  and 
goals  for  the  next  year.  The 
meeting  is  open  to  members 
of  the  Quincy  MRC  or  those 
interested  in  becoming  mem- 
bers. 

The  public  is  welcome  \o 
attend  both  the  meeting  and 
the  training  at  6  p.m. 

Previous  attendees  of  this 
training  in  other  communi- 
ties have  had  \ery  positive 
experiences  from  this  train- 
ing, such  as  it  promotes  team 
work,  and  fosters  an  under- 
standing of  how  an  EDS 
would  work  as  well  as  the 
roles  that  members  of  the 
community  would  fill. 

"We  were  excited  to  see 
so  much  of  a  response  from 
the  community,"  said  Alison 
Minkoff,  Region  4B  assis- 
tant emergency  preparedness 
coordinator.  "We're  Uioking 
forward  to  this  training  and 
seeing  more  new  faces." 


The  Quincy  Health  De- 
partment will  also  host  the 
second  hall  of  this  training. 
Part  2:  facilitating  Clients  on 
.luly  25  at  5:.^()  p.m.  at  City 
Hall.  Attendance  at  the  July 
1 1  training,  or  completion  of 
the  course  at  anc^ther  site  is 
required  to  attend.  Part  2  fo- 
cuses on  building  an  aware- 
ness of  barriers  that  clients 
may  experience  at  an  Emer- 
gency Dispensing  Site  and 
the  course  offers  strategies  to 
overcome  these  barriers. 

Anyone  interested  in  join- 
ing the  MRC  is  invited  to  at- 
tend this  training  or  contact 
the  Quincy  Health  Depart- 
ment. You  do  not  need  to

multi-million  dollar,  four- 
lane  roadway  straight 
through  Quincy  Center  will 
eliminate  parking,  destroy  or 
displace  dozens  of  busi-

"We  the  undersigned  resi-

(NAPS)  -  If  you're  like 
most  homeowners  and 
concerned  about  improving 
the  value  and  appearance  of 
your  home,  here's  and  idea 
that  could  be  a  .step  in  the 
right  direction:  putting  in 
pavers. 

Installing  driveway 
pavers  is  a  relatively  simple 
way  to  create  curb  appeal 
and  add  a  dramatic  look  to 
the  entrance  of  your  home. 
Pavers  can  also  be  used  to 
expand  your  home's  outdoor 
living  space  with  an  attractive 
patio,  walkway  or  entry  way. 

Regardless  of  the 
application,  the  variety  of 
pavers  available  offers  plenty 
of  possibilities  in  creating 
decorating  and  functional 
hard  surfaces  around  the 
home. 

To  ensure  your  paver 
surface  retains  its  beautiful 
-appearance,  you  can  use 
Quikrete  PowerLoc  Jointing 
Sand;  a  polymer-modified 
sand  specially  designed  for 
sweeping  into  paving  stone 
joints  or  replacing  existing 
joints.  Once  placed  and 
dampened,  the  nonstaining 
sand  hardens  to  lock  pavers 
in  place,  resulting  in  a  surface 
that  is  resistant  to  erosion, 
weed  growth  and  insects. 

Here's  how  to  do  it: 

•  Once  your  forms  are 
installed  and  the  site  is 
prepared,  create  a  firm,  stable 
base  with  Quikrete  Patio 
Paver  Base  Sand.

Home  Remodeling 

Adds  Value, 

Livability 

Q,I  don't  see  the  point 
•  in  remodeling  a 
Home.  The  building  mate- 
rials deteriorate  over  time, 
the  stylish  new  fixtures  fall 
out  of  style,  and  you  just 
have  to  do  it  all  over  stgain 
in  10  years.  You  just  can't 
rely  on  a  home  to  l)e  a  good 
investment,  in  my  opinion. 
So,  why  spend  a  ton  of 
money  on  remodeling?  — 
Franklin  5.,  Cincinnati 

A  .That's  a  valid  ques- 
•  tion.  How  much  value 
is  actually  added  to  a  home 
by  remodeling  work?  How 
much  money  should  you 
sjwnd,  ifany? 

Because  certain  remodel- 
ing projects  can  run  in  to  the 
tens  of  thousands  of  dollars, 
a  little  research  before 
deciding  what  to  improve  is 
well  worth  the  effort.  For 
example,  Remodeling  Mag- 
azine and  Banluate.com 
recently  published  a  list  of 
the  top  10  remodeling  pro- 
jects in  2006  and  the  return 
those  projects  brought  when 
a  home  was  sold. 

Replacing  a  home's  exteri- 
or siding  with  a  fiber  cement 
siding  was  the 

No.  1  project,  with  owTiers 
recouping  88  percent  of  the 


cost,  on  average.  In  some 
cities,  100  percent  of  the 
project  cost  was  recouped 
when  the  home  was  sold. 
Minor  kitchen  remodels  and 
bathroom  remodels  hit  Nos. 
4  and  5  on  the  list,  respec- 
tively. 

Remodeling  is  often  about 
more  than  just  numbers, 
however.  Updating  an  old 
kitchen,  replacing  windows 
and  doors  and  adding  insula- 
tion can  give  your  home  a 
fresh  look  and  reduce  energy 
costs.  These  types  of  repairs 
can  also  qualify  for  a  federal 
income-tax  credit  of  up  to 
$500,  if  completed  before 
Dec.  31,  2007.  More  infor- 
mation on  the  credit  can  be 
found  at  the  Alliance  to  Save 
Energy  Web  site 

(www.ase.orgAaxcredits). 

So,  while  it's  important  to 
look  at  possible  remodeling 
projects  with  a  critical  eye, 
don't  completely  dismiss 
their  value.  Sometimes  the 
financial  returns  aren't  as 
important  as  the  happiness 
one  gets  from  a  house  that 
feels  more  Uvable.

Safety  Around  The  Home 

Tips  On  Using  Extension  Cords  Safely 


(NAPS)  -  An  extension 
cord  can  be  a  handy, 
temporary  way  to  place 
electrical  equipment 
wherever  you'd  like  it.  But  if 
used  improperly,  extension 
cords  can  cause  fire  and 
injury. 

To  help  prevent  accidents, 
the  Electrical  Safety 
Foundation  International 
(ESFI)  urges  homeowners  to 
be  alert  to  the  potential 


hazards  of  inappropriate 
extension  cord  use. 

The  U.S.  Consumer 
Product  Safety  Commission 
(CPSC)  estimates  that,  each 
year,  about  4,000  injuries 
associated  with  electrical 
extension  cords  are  treated 
in  hospital  emergency  rooms. 
About  half  of  the  injuries 
involve  fractures,  lacerations, 
contusions  or  sprains  from 
people      tripping      over 


The  5  C's  Of  Cooling 


(NAPS)  -  When  the 
weather's  warm,  many 
people  may  be  relieved  to 
learn  their  air-conditioning 
system  can  help  keep  money 
in  their  wallet  and  maintain  a 
healthy  home.  Experts 
recommend  homeowners 
keep  the  5  C's  of  cooling  in 
mind  as  they  evaluate  the 
latest  coohng  technologies. 

Custom  Comfort 

Air-conditioning 
advancements  have  made  it 
easier  to  escape  the  heat  and 
customize  settings  in  the 
home  during  certain  times  of 
the  day.  The  latest  technology 
even  lets  homeowners 
program  the  thermostat  from 
a  cell  phone  or  computer  so 
the  home  is  at  ideal 
temperature  upon  arrival. 

Cost-Efficient 

Seasonal  Energy 

Efficiency  Ratio  (SEER)  is  a 
standard  measurement  of 
efficiency,  similar  to  miles- 
per-gallon  rating  on  a  car. 
Buying  an  air  conditioner 
with  a  higher  SEER  rating 
can  help  save  money  each 
month  on  utility  hills.  Sonic 
systems  even  quality  lor  a

The  workshop  will  be  held 
at  1509  Hancock  St..  Quincy 
Center,  in  the  fourth  Hoor 
conference  room. 

Workshop  speakers  are 
professionals  representing 
different  real  estate  fields. 
Participants  receive  a  work-

Systems. 
Clean 

From  pollen  to  mold 
spores,  the  warmer  months 
can  be  a  tough  time  for 
allergies  and  indoor  air  can 
be  up  to  five  times  more 
polluted  than  outdoor  air.  To 
help  keep  the  family's  air 
healthy,  look  for  a  high- 
quality,  high-efficiency, 
whole-home  air  purifier  to 
add  to  the  heating  and  cooling 
system.  The  right  device  can 
clean  and  protect  the  air  by 
filtering  and  killing 
potentially  harmful  indoor 
pollutants. 

Coolant 

The  cooling  system  may 
use  a  coolant  or  refrigerant 
called  R-22,  commonly 
known  as  Freon,  which  is  an 
ozone-depleting  refrigerant, 
scheduled  to  phased  out 
beginning  in  2010.  When  in 
the  market  for  a  new  air 
conditioner,  consider 
refrigerant  altematives  such 
cis  Puron.  which  won't 
deplete  the  o/.one  layer.

extension  cords.  Thirteen 
percent  of  the  injuries  involve 
children  under  5  years  of  age; 
electrical  bums  to  the  mouth 
accounted  for  half  the  injuries 
to  young  children. 

CPSC  also  estimates  that 
about  3,300  residential  fires 
originate  in  extension  cords 
each  year,  killing  50  people 
and  injuring  about  270  others. 
The  most  frequent  causes  of 
such  fires  are  short  circuits, 
overloading,  damage  and/or 
misuse  of  extension  cords. 

To  reduce  the  likelihood 
of  electrocution  or  fire  from 
improper  extension  cord  use: 

•  Use  extension  cords  only 
when  necessary  and  only  on 
a  temporary  basis. 

•  In  locations  where 
furniture  or  beds  may  be 
pushed  against  an  extension 
cord  where  the  cord  joins  the 
plug,  use  a  special  "angle 


extension  cord"  specifically 
designed  for  use  in  these 
locations. 

•  When  using  outdoor 
tools  and  appliances,  use  only 
extension  cords  labeled  for 
outdoor  use. 

•  Use  polarized  extension 
cords  with  polarized 
appliances. 

•  Insert  plugs  fully  so  that 
no  part  of  the  prongs  is 
exposed  when  the  extension 
cord  is  in  use. 

•  Replace  cracked  or  worn 
extension  cords  with  cords 
that  have  the  listing  of  a 
nationally  recognized  testing 
laboratory,  safety  closures 
and  other  safety  features. 

The  Electrical  Safety 
Foundation  International 
reminds  you  to  use  extension 
cords  safely-your  life  may 
depend  on  it.

Finding  the  Best 
Place  to  Live 

The  Internet  can  be  a  valu- 
able tool  when  it  comes  to 
hunting  for  a  place  to  move. 
A  "best  places  to  live" 
search  will  show  you  lists  of 
potential  cities,  with  ratings 
in  any  of  a  dozen  categories. 

If  you're  just  starting  a 
family  and  want  good 
schools,  if  you  want  an  inex- 
pensive house  and  good 
employment  ojjportunities 
in  tfie  West,  or  if  you're  retir- 
ing and  want  low  taxes  on 
the  East  Coast,  there's  a  list 
for  you  somewhere. 

Money  magazine  and  its 
online  site  have  a  number  of 
lists  taken  from  data  it  accu- 
mulates and  rates,  such  as 
Best  Places  to  Live,  Top  10 
Small  Cities,  and  Best  Big 
Cities.  Generally  you'll  find 
quite  a  bit  of  iiiformation 
Usted,  which  is  a  good  start- 
ing point  for  your  own  hunt. 

For  example,  CNN  Money 
online  says  that  Fort  Collins, 
Colo.,  is  a  great  place  to  hve, 
listing  it  as  No.  1  in  a  Top 
100  list  in  2006.  It  gives  the 
population  (128,000),  cost 
of  a  typical  single  family 
home  ($215,000),  and  the 
pros  (outdoors  lovers'  par- 
adise, little  stress),  as  well  as 
the  cons  (tech-dependent 
economy). 

But  what  if  you  want  a 
combination  of  things  in  a 
new  place?  Let's  say  you 
want  good  schools,  good 
employment  oppwrtunities 
and  low  taxes,  and  you  want 
to   Uve   in   New  England? 


There  are  sites  that  will  walk 
you  through  your  wish  list. 

Check  out  Sperling's  at 
www.bestplaces.net  and 
take  the  quiz.  You'll  be  able 
to  rate  from  1  to  7  how 
important  or  unimportant 
the  various  choices  are.  You 
can  plug  in  your  ideal 
weather,  education,  culture, 
transportation,  population, 
housing  and  the  economy. 
Or  you  can  ignore  some  cat- 
egories altogether. 

The  Find  Your  Spot 
[www.rindyourspot.com] 
quiz  has  you  rate  statements 
such  as  "I  love  humidity  and 
hot  summers,"  with  Agree  or 
Disagree  to  come  up  with 
your  best  places. 

Once  you  have  a  list  of 
potential  cities,  read  local 
newspapers  online  to  get  a 
feel  for  the  city.  Check  out 
News  Voyager  at 

www  jiewspaf)erlinks  .com . 

Here's  a  hint  that  could 
save  you  some  heartbreak  as 
you  choose  a  new  place  to 
live:  Look  for  online  blogs 
and  responses  to  city  ratings 
to  see  what  the  locals  say. 
You're  likely  to  find  the  truth 
there,  whether  good  or  bad.

Here's  the  Rub 
on  Inner  Thighs 

Q,  The  part  or  my  body 
•  that  bothers  me  the 
most  are  my  inner  thighs. 
Despite  many  attempts  to 
lose  weight,  my  thighs  still 
rub  together,  making  it 
uncomfortable  to  exercise., 
not  to  mention  wear  shorts 
to  the  gym.  What  am  I 
missing  with  my  workouts 
to  help  eliminate  the  dread- 
ed "rub"  of  my  thighs? 

A  .Genetics,  lifestyle 
•  choices,  body  com- 
position and  activity  level 
all  play  a  role  in  the  size, 
strength  and  appearance  of 
your  inner  thighs.  Tackling 
inner  thigh  "rub"  by  work- 
ing on  factors  you  can  con- 
trol, such  as  exercise,  is  a 
great  place  to  start. 

These  are  three  exercises 
you  can  add  to  your  current 
program  to  help  strengthen 
the  muscles  of  your  inner 
thighs. 

1 .  Squats  are  great  for  your 
legs.  Start  with  your  feet  and 
knees  facing  forward  and 
feet  shoulder-width  apart. 
Bend  your  knees  and  sit 
your  weight  on  your  heels  as 
you  lower  toward  the 
ground.  (Do  not  go  down 
lower  than  90  degrees  at 
your  knees.)  Retiim  to 
standing  position,  keeping 
your  weight  on  your  heels 
and  feet  and  knees  forward. 

2.  Pl\6  squats  are  similar  to 
the  squats  mentioned  above; 
however,  your  foot  position 
is  turned  out.  Begin  with 
your  feet  slightly  wider  than 
shoulder  width  and  turn 
your  feet  to  point  outward. 
Line  your  knees  up  with 
your  feet,  and  lower  your 
body  toward  the  ground. 
Keep  your  knees  and  feet 
turned    and    upper    body 


upright  (not  bending  for- 
ward) until  your  knees  reach 
9()  degrees.  Pressing 
through  your  heels,  return  to 
the  standing  position. 

3.  Another  great  exercise  is 
side  lunges,  which  are  great 
for  all  of  the  muscles  of  your 
leg.  Start  with  your  legs 
wider  than  shoulder-width 
apart,  with  your  feet  facing 
forward.  Keeping  your  feet 
facing  forward,  shift  your 
weight  to  the  right  by  bend- 
ing your  knee  forward.  Your 
weight  should  be  on  your 
right  heel,  and  your  hip, 
knee,  ankle  and  foot  should 
all  be  in  alignment  while 
your  left  leg  remains 
straight.  Bend  your  knee 
only  low  enough  to  maintain 
control,  aiul  then  straighten 
the  right  leg  to  standing 
position.  Complete  the  same 
movement  on  the  left  side. 

Complete  each  of  these 
exercises  for  10  to  15  repeti- 
tions and  one  to  three  sets. 
After  you  master  these  exer- 
ci.ses  with  just  your  body 
weight,  you  can  add  resis- 
tance from  either  dumbbells 
or  medicine  ball.  Remem- 
ber to  maintain  a  strong  and 
aligned  upper  body  while 
completing  these  lower- 
body  exercises. 

Although  there  is  no  guar- 
antee as  to  just  what  your 
body  will  look  like,  adding 
these  three  exercises  to  a  total 
body  exercise  program  along 
with  eating  pnoperiy  can  help 
you  see  overall  results. 

Always  consult  a  physician 
before  beginning  an  exercise 
program.  Andrea  Renee 
Wyatt,  MS.S..  C.S.C.S.,  is  a 
certified  personal  trainer 
with  an  extensive  back- 
ground in  strength  and  con- 
ditioning as  well  as  thera- 
peutic recreation.

TOOTH-COLORED  FILLINGS 


Nt)i  only  arc  the  silver-col- 
ored fillings  known  as  amal- 
gams unattractive,  they  arc 
outdated.  A  category  of  tooth- 
colored  fillings,  known  as 
composite  resin  dental  fill- 
ings, utilize  plastic  resin  to  fill 
cavities.  Composites  were 
once  used  only  on  front  teeth 
due    to   insufficient   load 
strength.  However,  in  recent 
years,  the  strength  and  dura- 
bility of  composites  has  been 
improved  to  the  point  where 
they  are  suitable  restorations 
in  the  back  teeth.  In  addition, 
composites  may  be  used  to 
improve  aesthetic  appearance 
of  the  teeth  in  terms  of  both 
shape  and  color.  Composite 
have  the  advantage  of  closely 
matching  the  shade/color  of 
natural  teeth.  The  material 
also  bonds  with  the  tooth 
structure  to  support  teeth  and 
insulate  them  from  tempera- 
ture change. 

Now,  no  matter  how  many 


cavities  you  have  filled,  your 
smile  can  appear  unblemished 
and  brilliant.  To  find  out  if

People  With  Diabetes  Need  More  Than 
Sunglasses  To  Protect  Their  Eyes 


BOSTON  Summer 
means  bright  sun,  ultraviolet 
rays  and  of  course,  sun- 
glasses. But  did  you  know 
that  people  with  diabetes 
need  more  than  sunglas.ses  to 
protect  their  eyes? 

Diabetes  puts  people  at 
risk  lor  cataracts,  glaucoma 
and  diabetic  retinopathy,  a 
leading  cause  of  vision  loss. 
But  in  the  majority  of  ca.ses, 
vision  can  be  preserved  if  the 
disease  is  caught  early  and 
treated. 

The  experts  at  Joslin  Dia- 
betes Center's  Beetham  Eye 
Institute  offer  these  quick  re- 
minders to  keep  your  eyes  in 
great  shape  not  only  in  the 
summer  but  also  all  through 
the  year: 

•  Diabetic  eye  disease  can 
be  painless  until  it  reaches 
very  advanced  stages,  and 
the  earlier  you  can  catch  it, 
the  more  likely  you  can  pre- 
.serve  your  sight. 

•  You  can  have  perfect  vi- 
sion and  still  have  diabetic 
eye  di.sease. 


•  An  annual  dilated  eye 
e.xam  can  identify  eye  com- 
plications early  on. 

•  If  your  doctor  finds  early 
signs  of  diabetic  eye  disease, 
a  number  of  treatments  may 
be  recommended,  including 
laser  eye  surgery,  contact 
lenses,  glasses  and  medica- 
tions. 

•  Keeping  your  AlC  (av- 
erage monthly  blood  glucose 
levels)  on  target,  controlling 
blood  pressure  and  quitting 


smoking  also  can  help  pre- 
serve vision  and  prevent  vi- 
sion loss. 

Joslin  Diabetes  Center 
has  been  on  the  cutting  edge 
of  diabetes-related  eye  dis- 
ease prevention  and  care 
since  its  inception  and  has  set 
standards  across  the  world 
for  the  treatment  and  care  of 
people  with  diabetes.  With 
more  than  360,000  people  in 
Massachusetts  diagnosed 
with  diabetes,  and  thousands 


more  having  the  disease  and 
not  knowing  it,  there  is  great 
risk  of  vision  loss  due  to  dia- 
betic retinopathy.  Compre- 
hensive eye  exams  on  an  an- 
nual basis,  proper  manage- 
ment and  care  of  your  health, 
and  of  course,  your  favorite 
pail  of  sunglasses  are  all  key 
to  seeing  your  eyes  in  a  new 
hght.

New  Massage  Therapy 
Opens  In  North  Quincy 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  representatives  of 
Quincy  2000  recently 
attended  the  opening  of 
Mary's  Massage  Therapy  at 
423A  Hancock  Street,  North 
Quincy. 

The  company's  owner, 
Mary  Chan,  said  her  facility 
offers    specialized    and 


Itchy  and  Scratchy 


Itchy,  red  swollen  bumps 
on  the  skin  are  an  all-too- 
familiar  summer  sign  that 
bugs  —  and  bug  bites  —  are 
flourishing. 

That  aiinoying  itch  may  be 
a  good  sign,  however. 

"Itchy  is  normal.  Tender  is 
not,"  when  it  comes  to  bug 
bites,  said  Dr.  Robin  Carder, 
assistant  professor  of  der- 
matology and  pediatrics  at 
UT  Southwestern  Medical 
Center  at  Dallas.  Tender- 
ness, she  cautioned,  may  be 
a  sign  the  bug  bite  is  becom- 
ing infected  and  deserves 
more  medical  attention. 

"It  is  normal  for  a  bug  bite 
to  be  a  little  red  or  swollen, 
and  it  may  even  blister,"  Dr. 
Carder  said.  "But  the  lesion 
should  be  more  itchy  than 
sore.  If  it  becomes  tender, 
that  may  be  a  sign  of  infec- 
tion." 

Common  insect  bites  such 
as  mosquitoes  and  chiggers 
arc  relatively  easy  to  treat 
with  over-the-counter  reme- 
dies. 

"Antihistamines  like 

Benadryl  (either  the  oral  or 
the  topical  form)  can  be  very 
efifectivc  in  reUeving  the  itch 
and  decreasing  the  swelling, 
or  hive-like  response,"  Dr. 


Carder  said.  Topical 
steroids,  such  as  hydrocorti- 
sone, also  work  well.  Both 
can  be  found  in  touch  sticks 

^2 


that  can  make  it  easier  to  tar- 
get the  affected  area. 

It's  especially  hard  to  keep 
children  from  infecting  itchy 
bites  with  their  repeated 
scratching,  but  Ken  Hailer, 
M.D.,  associate  professor  of 
pediatrics  at  Saint  Louis 
University,  has  a  suggestion: 
Dab  a  bit  of  roll -on  antiper- 
spirant  directly  on  the  bug 
bite,  and  the  itching  will 
stop. 

"The  aluminum  salts  in  the 
antipcrspirant  help  the  body 
to  reabsorb  the  fluid  in  the 
bug  bite,"  Dr.  Hailer  said. 
"The  swelling  goes  down 
and  the  itching  goes  away."

as  Chinese,  Acupressure, 
Thai,  Hot  tone,  Swedish,

Chan  explained  that 
regular  massages  are

and  balanced  lifestyle  in 
many  Asian  countries 
becvause  the  healing  effects 
are  not  only  physical,  but  also

Quincy  Shuts  Down 
Morrisette,  6-0 


By  DOMENIC  POLI 

Saturday  night's  Fourth 
of  July  fireworks  display  in 
Weymouth  persuaded 
Morrisette  and  Quincy  Le- 
gion to  move  their  game 
from  8  p.m.  to  6  p.m. 

Both  teams'  coaches 
knew  the  festivities,  which 
began  at  9:30,  would  distract 
their  players  and  they  agreed 
to  start  the  game  early. 

The  time  change  sat  well 
with  Quincy  manager  Dan 
Sweeney  and  coach  Sean 
Sullivan. 

'it's  not  a  bad  thing  to 
have  a  day  game  once  in  a 
while.  We  have  enough  night 
games,"  Sullivan  said. 

The  matchup  between  the 
city's  two  teams  remained 
gridlocked  until  the  bottom 
of  the  third. 

Quincy  Post  95  finally 
drew  first  blood  when  it 
scored  two  runs  thanks  to 
some  sloppy  play  by  the 
Morrisette  middle  infielders. 

With  the  bases  loaded,  a 
ground  ball  to  shortstop  al- 
lowed the  first  Quincy  Post 
95  run  to  come  in  through  the 
back  door.  A  bad  throw  to 
first  by  the  second  ba.seman 
after  a  flip  from  the  shortstop 
brought  in  the  second  run. 

In  the  fifth,  William  Kiley 
reached  base  and  stole  sec- 
ond right  before  Tom  Conley 


LEGION  BASEBALL 


strolled  to  the  batter's  box. 
Conley  scorched  a  ball  into 
center  and  Kiley  raced 
around  third  for  home. 
Conley  got  to  second  on  the 
relay  to  the  plate  and  an  over- 
throw allowed  him  to  slide 
safely  into  third. 

In  the  sixth,  Mike  Jay 
started  things  off  by  punch- 
ing a  single  into  the  left-cen- 
ter field  gap.  After  Mike 
LeBel  flew  out  to  left,  Tom 
Power  produced  a  single  of 
his  own  -  this  one  straight  up 
the  middle  into  centerfield. 

The  next  batter.  Jay 
Lewis,  was  then  struck  by  a 
pitch  to  load  the  bases. 

And  that's  when  Steve 
Kussman  comes  in. 

Kussman  pounded  a  pitch 
to  the  left  field  fence.  The 
basepaths  became  a  merry- 
go-round  as  everyone  raced 
for  the  plate.  By  the  time  the 
play  ended,  Quincy  Post  95 
had  made  it  a  6-0  game. 

Morrisette  tried  to  get 
something  going  in  the  top 
of  the  seventh. 

John  Orlando  hit  a  ball  up 
the  middle  that  the  second 
baseman  played  to  his  right 
-  but  the  throw  was  too  late 
at  first.  Ricky  Salvucci  was 
next  up,  and  he  knocked  a 


single  between  the  third 
baseman  and  shortstop. 

Mike  Joyce  then  flew  out 
to  center  and  Orlando  was 
able  to  take  third  on  a  tag- 
up. 

Morrisette,  down  6-0  with 
runners  on  first  and  third 
with  one  out,  was  trying  to 
make  some  magic  happen, 
but  6-4-3  double  play  hit  by 
Steve  Sullivan  squashed  all 
hopes  of  that. 

It  was  a  perfect  represen- 
tation of  how  things  had 
worked  out  for  Morrisette 
the  whole  game. 

"We  didn't  hit.  That's  the 
whole  story  -  we  couldn't 
hit,"  Morrisette  manager  Ray 
Cattaneo  said.  "We  played  a 
decent  game  out  there,  got  a 
good  pitching  job,  we  just 
didn't  hit. 

"The  defense  played 
well,"  he  added.  "The  only 
thing  that  hurt  us  was  mak- 
ing that  [attempted]  double 
play.  We  had  it  made  if  it  was 
a  good  throw.  They  wouldn't 
have  scored  that  inning  and 
it  might  have  been  a  differ- 
ent game." 

Quincy  Post  95  will  host 
Milton  Post  this  Friday  at 
Adams  Field,  while 
Morrisette  plays 
Weymouth  on  Sunday.

17 -Year-Old  Woodward  School  Graduate  Selected  To  Bermuda  National  Women's  Soccer  Team 

Soccer  Sensation  Jasmin  Johansen  Goes  International 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

Jasmin  Johansen,  the  best 
student-athlete  to  ever  take 
the  field  for  The  Woodward 
Sehool  for  Girls'  varsity 
soccer  team,  has  gone 
international. 

Johansen.  17,  who 
finished  her  illustrious  high 
school  career  with  a  school 
record  104  goals.  64  assists 
and  Ui(S total  ponils-nunibers 
that  ilwarl  all  other  scornig 
stats  ni  the  school's  I  I  2  year 
histoi y.  has  been  selected  as 
a  member  ol  the  Merrjuida 
national  woiiieiis  soccer 
team. 

Joh.inseii,  whose  lather. 
William  "Jerry"  Johansen 
ca|)lamed  IkMiiuulas  North 
Village  I-ootball  C'luh  when 
he  was  younger,  was  invited 
down  to  Iryoul  lor  the 
national  team  last  month  .She 
tjuickly  caught  the  eye  of 
national  team  coaches  Vance 
Brow  II  and  Jeremy  Salaam, 
and  when  all  was  said  and 
ilone.  Johansen  made  the 
team. 

"In  January,  ///<'  Royal 
i'liizcttc  ( Hernuulas  national 
newspaper)  contacted  me  and 


,1 ASMIN  .lOH AN.SKN 

wanteil  to  do  a  story  about 
my  soccer  career  at 
Wooilward  and  about  me 
breaking  all  the  records." 
Johansen  said  last  week.  "The 
national  team  and  coaches 
real!  that  story  and  called  me 
to  see  1 1  1  wi>ukl  come  ck)wn 
and  tryout  for  the  team.  1  did 
and  I  made  the  team." 

Johansen' s  skill  set  and 
goal-scoring  abilities 
allowed  her  to  stand  out 
amongst  the  50  to  60  i)ther 
women  who  were  at  the 
natii>nal  team  tryouts.  The 
team  itself  is  made  up  mostly 
i»f  wi)inen  in  there  20s,  many 
who  play  competitive  soccer 


at  American  universities  and 
colleges,  but  even  though  she 
may  be  young,  Johansen's 
talents  earned  her  a  spot  on 
the  team. 

"The  tryouts  were  very 
challenging,"  she  added,  "but 
1  showed  up  in  shape  and 
even  though  I  am  one  of  the 
youngest  players  on  the  team, 
I  did  well  and  I  earned  my 
spot.  Most  of  the  national 
team  players  play  over  here 
( I'.S. )  in  college,  but  1  am  the 
only  person  from  the  Boston 
area  on  the  team."' 

Johansen,  who  was 
eligible  to  tryout  for  the 
Bermuda  national  team 
because  her  parents,  William 
and  Jerilyn  are  Bermudan. 
will  get  her  first  taste  of 
international  competition 
beginning  this  week. 

She  joined  her  new  team 
in  New  York  last  week, 
before  flying  over  to  Greece 
to  play  in  the  Small  Islands 
Games  in  Rhodes.  The  team 
is  scheduled  to  play  against 
Guernsey  and  the  Western 
Islands  in  the  first  round.

Peter  Fitzgerald  On  Mass.  College 
Of  Liberal  Arts  Dean's  Llist 

Peter  Simons  Fitzgerald  Steve  Green,  vice  president 

of  Quincy  has  been  named  to  of  Academic  Affairs, 

the  Dean's  List  for  the  spring  He  is  the  son  of  Norma

different  than  the  play  up  here 
at  Woodward.  When  I  played 
in  high  school,  1  could  blow 
by  people  and  score  at  will, 
what  1  am  working  on  now  is 
improving  my  one-touches 
and  working  hard  at  thinking 
on  my  feet  instead  of  just 
going  hard  every  time  1  have 
the  ball." 

Johansen,  played  at  the 
right  wing  forward  position 
in  high  school,  but  will  be 
asked  to  play  back  at  the 
midfield  position  on  the 
national  team.  With  this 
change  in  position, 
Johansen's  responsibilities 
will  grow,  and  like 
everything  else  she  does  on 
the  field;  this  change  should 
only  drive  her  to  adjust  and 
to  get  better. 

"They  have  me  mostly  at 
midfield-forward,"  she  said. 
"In  high  school  I  scored  most 
of  my  goals  on  breakaways, 
but  now  it  is  more  strategy, 
passing  and  working  more  as 
a  team.  It  about  working  as  a 
unit,  but  the  main  objective 
for  me  is  always  to  score 
goals." 

With  her  summer 
commitment  to  the  Bermuda 
national  team  taking  up  most 
of  her  time,  Johansen  will 
use  this  experience  to  get 


to  score  goals  at  will  on  the 
soccer  field,  but  also  for  the 
attitude  she  brought  to 
Woodward  every  morning, 
will  be  her  high  school  coach. 
Bob  Giordano. 

"Jasmin  is  so  humble,  but 
she  also  has  this  strong  inner 
strength  about  her  that  just 
became  infectious  to 
everyone  she  played  with  and 
met  during  her  time  here  at 
The  Woodward  S^i.,  .,1  for 
Girls,"  he  said.  "A  big  part  of 
her  life  and  who  she  is  comes 
from  her  parents,  William 
and  Jeri.  Her  mother  is  so 
sweet  and  was  a  big  part  of 
Jasmin' s  education  and  real ly 
was  her  backbone  when  it 
came  to  school.  But  1  have  to 
give  Jasmin  all  the  credit  for 
the  way  she  handled  herself 
here  at  school. 

"She  won't  say  anything, 
but  being  an  'outsider'  at 
those  national  team  tryouts 
(Johansen  is  the  only  team 
member  not  to  be  bom  in 
Bermuda)  was  not  an  easy 
thing  to  overcome.  But  give 
her  credit,  she  stuck  with  it 
and  eventually  fit  in  perfectly 
with  the  rest  of  the  team.  It  is 
all  about  the  game  and  being 
a  part  of  something  great  that 
makes  her  tick  and  makes 
her  so  special.  We  all  know 


herself  ready  for  the  next     that  she  is  going  to  do  really 
phase  of  her  soccer  and     well  in  the  future." 


educational  career. 

In  the  fall,  she  will  enter 
Spelman  College  (Atlanta, 
GA).  At  Division  III 
Spelman,  Johansen  will  be 
playing  soccer,  but  even  more 
exciting  for  her,  she  will 
begin  her  long-awaited 
college  experience. 

"I  am  playing  soccer  and  I 
was  thinking  about  pursing  a 
Business  degree,  but  I  think 
it  is  best  if  I  go  in  undecided," 
Johansen  said.  "I  want  to 


Before  she  graduated  from 
The  Woodward  School  for 
Girls  last  month,  Johansen 
had  her  number  five  soccer 
jersey  retired,  framed  and 
hung  on  the  school's  "Wall 
of  Honor."  The  ceremony 
closed  the  door  on  her  time  at 
the  school,  but  it  also  marked 
the  begiiming  of  a  new  phase 
in  her  life. 

"I  am  ready  to  experience 
everything  that  comes  to  me 
over  the  next  four  years  at 


tryout  and  do  a  lot  of  different  Spelman,"  Johansen  proudly 

things  in  regards  to  courses  added,  "and  I  am  excited 

and  my  studies.  But  with  about  this  opportunity  to  play 

soccer,  I  am  expecting  to  see  the  game  I  love  for  the 


a  lot  of  playing  time.  I  am 
just  excited  and  ready  to  go."

to  miss  Johansen;  and  not 
just  for  her  uncanny  ability 


Bermuda  national  team.  Who 
knows  where  it  will  take  me, 
so  I  am  going  to  just  enjoy

But  be  careful  to  avoid  those 
who  would  take  unfair 
advantage  of  your  good 
nature,  especially  where 
money  is  involved. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Having  an  optimistic  atti- 
tude is  fine,  as  far  as  it  goes. 
But  don't  be  lulled  into  a 
false  sense  of  confidence. 
There  arc  still  problems  to 
deal  with  before  you  can 
totally  relax. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  You  might  feel  somewhat 
"crabby,"  as  you  fuss  over 
plans  that  don 't  .seem  to  work 
out.  Mayt)e  you're  trying  too 
hard.  Ease  up  and  let  things 
happen  without  forcing 
them. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Heed  that  keen  Leonine 
instinct.  It's  trying  to  tell  you 
to  delay  making  a  decision 
until  you're  sure  there  are  no 
hidden  problems  that  could 
cause  trouble  later  on. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  This  is  a  good 
time  to  reach  out  to  those 
who  might  be  nursing  hurt 
feelings  over  recent  events. 
Best  advice:  Ignore  any  f>etti- 
ness  that  could  delay  the 
healing  process. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Your  under- 
standing helps  a  colleague 
get  through  a  difficult  f>eriod. 
Although  you  didn't  do  it  for 
a  reward,  be  assured  that  your 
actions  will  be  repaid  down 
the  line. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  You  score 
some  high  marks  in  the  work- 
place, which  will  count  in 
your  favor  when  you  face  the 
f)o.ssibility  of  changing  direc- 
tion on  your  current  career 
path. 

SAGITrARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21 )  Your 
goal  lies  straight  ahead.  Stay 
focused  on  it  and  avoid  dis- 
tractions that  could  throw  off 
your  aim  and  cause  potential- 
Iv  detnmentai  delavs. 

'r:APRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Keep  that 
burst  of  exuberance  in  check 
and  resist  pushing  through 
your  new  projet;t  before  it's 
ready.  In  your  j^jrsonal  life,  a 
fiunily  member  again  needs 
help. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  Paying  atten- 
tion to  your  work  is  imjxjr- 
tant  this  week.  But  so  are 
your  relationships  with  those 
sjx^ial  jjeople  in  your  life. 
Miike  time  for  them  as  well. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Good  news. 
Someone  is  about  to  repay  a 
long-standing  debt.  But  be 
warned.  That  same  someone 
could  try  to  charm  you  into 
lending  it  back  unless  you 
say  no  and  mean  it. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
are  sensitive  to  matters  that 
involve  your  home  and  fami- 
ly. You  would  make  a  fine 
social  worker  or  family-court 
judge.

fOR  7)/e  iVeetc 

It  has  been  said  that  courtesy  is 
one  of  the  most  important  factors 
of  true  love.  T»m)  often  we  tend  to 
forget  this.  Too  often  we  are  care- 
less toward  those  whom  we  love 
best  and  polite  toward  those  for 
whom  we  care  little  or  nothing. . . 
True  and  abiding  love  is  divine, 
but  to  keep  it  so  we  must  observe  its  ritual.  We  dare  not 
take  those  we  love  for  granted.  Love  must  be  kept  in 
repair. 

The  ancient  Greeks  had  six  different  works  to  ex- 
press love,  four  of  them  towards  persons;  the  love  of 
physical  attraction,  the  love  of  friends;  the  love  of 
children  and  parents;  and  finally,  the  highest  form, 
spiritual  love.  This  last  is  the  word  used  by  St.  Paul  in 
describing  the  ideal  love  for  home  and  family  relations. 
. .  Yes,  courtesy  is  love's  habit. . . 

Perhaps  if  one  were  allowed  to  add  one  small  Beati- 
tude as  a  footnote  to  the  others,  it  might  be  this:  Blessed 
are  the  courteous. . . .

Quincy  Officers  Trained 
To  Deal  With  Autism 


Four  Quincy  police  offic- 
ers recentl\  participated  in  an 
Autism  and  Law  Hnlorce- 
ment  Hducation  Coalition 
(ALHC)  training  session 
held  on  the  growing  problem 
ol  autism  spectrum  disorder. 

Otlicers  .lames 

Dentremont,  Jack  Keenan, 
Matt  Miller  and  Declan 
Breslin  took  the  course  of- 
fered by  District  Attorney 
William  Keating  and  the 
Family  Autism  Center  of 
South  Norfolk  County  ARC. 

"We  get  so  many  calls  in- 
volving autistic  persons  that 
we  are  considering  setting  up 
an  in-service  training  pro- 
gram for  all  policemen,"  said 
Lt.  Charles  Santoro,  the 
Quincy  police  training  of- 
ficer . 

Keating  praised  Chief 
Robert  Crowley  and  his 
Quincy  poUce  for  their  sup- 
port of  the  ALEC  educa- 
tional program. 

"Law  enforcement  offi- 
cials are  recognizing  the 
need  to  give  the  officers  on 
the  street  the  tools  they  need 
to  deal  with  any  situation, 
including  children  and  adults 
with  autism,"  he  said. 

The  Center  for  Disease 
Control  estimates  one  out  of 
every  150  children  will  be 
diagnosed  with  autism. 
People  with  autism  are  seven 
times  more  likely  to  have 
encounters  with  the  law  than 
other  people. 

ALHC.  which  is  lundetl 
through  the  State  Depart 


ment  of  Mental  Retardation" 
Division  of  Autism,  provides 
police  officers,  firefighters 
and  lUher  emergency  person- 
nel with  the  tools  needed  to 
respond  to  such  situations. 

Along  with  videos  and 
lectures,  training  sessions 
include  presentations  by 
public  safety  officials  with 
autistic  family  members  to 
offer  a  personal  aspect  of  the 
condition. 

Norwood  Police  Sgt. 
Martin  Baker,  the  lead  trainer 
for  police  officers,  recalled 
incidents  in  his  career  when 
he  encountered  individuals 
on  the  autism  spectrum  and 
was  unsure  how  to  handle  the 
situation. 

Now  the  parent  of  a  child 
with  autism,  he  has  answered 
many  service  calls  involving 
individuals  with  autism  and 
has  trained  hundreds  of  fel- 
low officers  on  ALEC's  be- 
half. 

"The  training  has  re- 
ceived an  overwhelming  re- 
sponse from  police  officers," 
said  Baker.  "Many  have 
commented  that  they  had 
been  in  situations  we  de- 
scribe but  had  not  been  cer- 
tain how  best  to  proceed. 

The  goals  of  the  training 
is  to  give  police  officers  a 
level  of  confidence  that, 
when  they  have  a  situation 
involving  someone  with  au- 
tism, they  will  know  what  it 
is  and  deal  with  it  appropri- 
atelv.""

This  is  the  second  year  of 
Phelan's  Capital  Improve- 
ment Plan.  The  mayor  in- 
tends to  introduce  a  Capital 
Improvement  Plan  each  year 
with  the 

operating  budget  of  the  city 
to  ensure  that  the  long-term 
capital  needs  of  city  govern- 
ment are  addressed  in  a  sys- 
tematic lashicMi. 

There  is  no  shoilage  of 
needs,  our  buildings  and 
fleets  had  been  neglected 
during  the  strong  economic 
limes  and  now  we  must  play 
catchup,""  Phelan  said. 

Tf  we  simply  develop  a 
plan  that  we  can  financially 
sustain  over  time,  we  can 
avoid  spending  more  money 
in  building  repairs  in  the  fu- 
ture. 

"A  little  preventive 
rep[air  and  maintenance  can 
go  a  long  way  toward  avoid- 
ing larger  costs  in  the  fu- 
ture.""

New  Rake  In  Action  At  City  Beaches 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  Park  Commissioner 
Mark  Jaehnig  announce  that 
the  City's  new  beach  rake 
has  been  busy  raking  and 
cleaning  Quincy's  municipal 
beaches  for  the  summer 
months. 

The  beach  rake  was  pur- 
chased with  bond  money 
from  the  Mayor's  Natural 
Resource  Investment  Initia- 
tive. The  source  of  the  funds 
was  the  citv's  hotel/motel  ta.x 


fund. 

"Our  beaches  are  neigh- 
borhood, waterfront  parks 
that  more  and  more  residents 
are  realizing,"  said  Phelan. 
"They  are  great  places  to 
bring  the  family,  relax  or 
play,  and  enjoy  the  beautiful 
natural  treasures  we  have 
here  in  Quincy." 

The  beach  rake  was  out 
last  week  at  Avalon  Beach, 


Mound  Street  Beach, 
Edgewater  Drive  Beach,  and 
Perry  Beach.  It  will  continue 
this  week  at  beaches  in 
Merrymount,  Squantum  and 
Germantown." 

"We  have  made  a  com- 
mitment to  keeping  our 
beaches  clean.  This  will  not 
be  the  last  time  our  sand  rake 
cleans  our  beaches,"  said 
Jaehnig.

Celebrates  7th  Birthday  On  7/7/07 


ALEXANDER  KILEY  of  27  Dixwell  Ave.,  Quincy,  (third  from  left)  celebrated  his  seventh

Mayor  Asks  License  Board 
Switch  To  Afternoon  Hours 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
has  requested  the  License 
Board  to  switch  its  meeting 
time  from  mid-morning  to 
late  afternoon  to  make  it 
equally  convenient  for  both 
residents  and  businessmen. 

In  a  letter  to  License 
Board  Chairman  Joseph 
wShea.  the  mayor  called  the 
current  10  a.m.  Tuesday 
morning  meetings  "favor- 
able to  businesses  and  an 
impediment  to  public  partici- 
pation." 

He  asked  a  change  to  4 
p.m.  so  that  both  would  have 


an  equal  opportunity  to  at- 
tended. 

"The  current  time  of  the 
meeting  prevents  many 
people  from  attending  and/or 
participating  in  the  license 
board  hearings,"  said  Phelan. 

"I  have  heard  from  many 
people  who  wish  this  change 
to  happen  so  that  they  have 
the  same  opportunity  that  the 
business  community  has  to 
participate  in  the  process. 

"It's  merely  a  matter  ot 
evening  the  playing  field  so 
the  board  has  a  better  balance 
of  input  from  our  neighbor- 


hoods. 

"It  could  also  make  it 
easier  for  city  councillors  to 
advocate  for  their  constitu- 
ents. 

"The  decisions  made  by 
the  License  Board  can  have 
lasting  impacts  on  a  neigh- 
borhood. 

"1  don't  know  many  resi- 
dents that  are  home  at  10 
a.m.  1  think  the  current  time 
schedule  is  a  detriment  to 
many  people  and  1  hope  the 
board  considers  the  change 
in  the  interest  of  public  par- 


ticipation. 

$1  Million,  $250,000  Tickets  Sold  Here 

Quincy  Sweepstakes 
Winners  Still  Unknown 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Quincy's  two  Star 
Spangled  ticket  winners 
hadn't  come  forward  by  this 
week' s  Quincy  Sun  deadline, 
but  two  small  business 
owners  can  still  celebrate. 

The  Star  Spangled 
Sweepstakes  was  a  new 
venture  for  the  Massachusetts 


State  Lottery  which  offered 
a  $20  million  Grand  Prize  to 
one  ticket  winner  and  a  total 
of  50  other  large  prizes.  The 
drawing  was  held  on  July  4 
and  each  ticket  cost  $20. 

No  one  in  the  city  won  the 
$20  million  grand  prize  but 
winning  tickets  were  sold  at 
two  local  stores.  Each  owner 


is  paid  a  commission  on  the 
total  prize  by  the 
Massachusetts  State  Lottery. 
A  winning  ticket  for  one 
million  dollars  was  sold  at 
Bemie's  General  Store  on 
Sea  Street  and  a  $250,000 
ticket  was  sold  at  Sabina's 
Market  on  Beale  Street.

'Major  Milestone '  Says  Phelan 

$30M  Downtown 
Renewal  Plan  Gets 
State  Green  Light 


Mayor  William  Phelan's 
$30  million  plan  to  revital- 
ize downtown  Quincy,  cook- 
ing on  the  front  burner  for  the 
past  four  years,  has  been  ap- 
proved by  the  State  Depart- 
ment of  Housing  and  Com- 
munity Development. 

The  Department  found  fi- 
nances for  the  Quincy  Cen- 
ter Distnct  L'rban  Re\  itali/.;t- 
tion  and  Development  Plan 
( URDP)  to  be  sound,  the  55- 
acre  project  area  to  be  deca- 
dent and  the  plan  itself  to  bo 
sufficiently  complete. 

"The  pri^ject  area  would 
not  by  private  enterprise 
alone  and  without  either  gov- 
ernment subsidy  or  the  exer- 
cise of  governmental  powers 
be  made  available  lor  urban 
renewal."  said 

Undersecretary  Tina  Brooks. 

"The  proposed  land  uses 
and  building  requiremenls  in 
the  project  area  will  at  ford 
ina.ximum  opportunit)  lor 
pri\ately  financed  urban  re- 
newal ccmsistent  with  the 
sound  needs  ol  the  cit\  ot 
Quincy  as  a  v\hole." 

The  plan  "v\ill  stinuilalc 


the  creation  of  400  or  more 
housing  units,  including  al- 
fordable  housing,  and  add 
66()-y()()  jobs  downtown," 
she  said  in  a  letter  to  Phelan. 
who  first  advanced  the  plan 
in  January,  200.^. 

Phelan  called  state  ap- 
proval "another  major  mile- 
stone achicNcd  .  .  .  an  impor- 
tant step  in  realizing  the 
three-decade-old  goal  of 
bringing  life  back  into  the 
downtown." 

He  first  proposed  the 
L'RDP  in  his  mul-term  ad- 
dress in  January.  2003. 

"lor  too  long,"  he  said, 
"the  residontiiil  taxpayers 
have  carried  the  undei-per- 
formance  of  the  downtown 
and  its  lagging  cdmmeivial 
ta.x  base. 

"We  are  seeing  a  reversal 
of  that  trend  and  our  lede- 
\el()pnieni  ellurts  will  result 
in  a  dramatic  turnaround. 

"We  are  nearing  a  poiiil 
V. here  ue could  see  hundreds 
of  millions  ol  private  dollars 
imested  in  oui  douniown." 

1  he  plan  anticipates 
landtaking  oj  pnxate  prop- 


erty by  eminent  domain  and 
a  relocation  plan  that  must 
still  be  approved  bv  the  State 
Bureau  of  Relocation  prior  to 
the  start  of  any  business  le- 
locatii>n  acti\  ities. 

The  area  to  be  ile\elo|K'd 
runs  roughly  Irom  the  MB'l  A 
Station  on  the  north  lo 
Hancock  Court  on  the  south 
and  from  Burgm  Parkv\a\  on 
the  west  to  Mechanic  Street- 
Revere  Road-Dennis  R}an 
Parkway-Washington  Streel 
on  the  east. 

The  I 'RDP  is  designed  to

Krabby  Joe's  Hours 
Extended  To  1  A.M. 


By  MARIE  D'OLIMPIO 

On  a  3  lo  2  \  otc  Tuesday, 
the  Lieense  Board  lifted  the 
restrictions  given  to  Krislie 
Henriksen.  owner  of  Krabby 
Joe"s  at  Marina  Bay.  allow- 
ing her  to  remain  until  1  a.m. 
instead  of  1 1  p.m. 

Voting  against  it  was 
Chairman  Joseph  Shea  and 
Jay  Duca,  director  of 
inspectional  services.  They 
both  wanted  the  closing  time 
to  be  12  midnight  as  sug- 
gested by  Ward  6  Councillor 
Brian  McNamee. 

Henriksen,  who  also 
owns  Siro's  Restaurant  lo- 
cated beside  Krabby  Joe's 
said  "1  want  to  please  the 
residents"  and  added  that  al- 
ter 1 3  years  of  owning  Siro's, 
"1  feel  I  have  proved  my- 
self." 

She  said  she  has  no  out- 
side speakers,  no  entertain- 


ment, and  no  music.  She  said 
she  had  reno\  ated  the  place 
and  had  a  wall  installed  so 
that  residents  could  not  hear 
any  noise. 

Only  one  abutter  spoke 
against  the  closing  of  1  a.m. 
saying  Henriksen  should 
have  known  the  restrictions 
before  she  purchased  Krabby 
Joe's. 

One  resident,  Andrew 
Purrallo  said  he  was  a  long 
time  resident  of  Marina  Bay 
said  he  had  "full  recognition 
of  what  would  happen,  and 
that  he  has  never  been  dis- 
turbed." 

Another  supporter.  Bob 
Constantino  said  that  since 
Henriksen  purchased 
Krabby  Joe's',  it  appeals  to 
a  different  crowd,  and  how 
she  has  transformed  the  area. 

Ward  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  said  Krabby  Joe's 


is  attracting  a  more  mature 
crowd,  and  that  Henriksen 
doesn't  deserve  to  have  the 
same  restrictions  put  on 
former  ow  ners. 

He  suggested  closing 
time  to  be  12  midnight. 

After  the  long  discus- 
sions. Dean  Ri/.zo,  of  Quincy 
2000  spoke  in  favor  of  lift-

Marina  Bay,  she  was  repre-

"Henriksen  should  "unilater-

Mayor  Wants  Traffic  Detail 
At  Neponset  Bridge 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
wants  the  return  of  the  State 
Police  traffic  detail  to  the 
Neponset  Circle,  at  the  foot 
of  the  Neponset  Bridge. 

Phelan  requested  in  a  let- 
ter to  Gov.  Deval  Patrick  that 
the  detail  be  assigned  for  the 
morning  commute  while  the 
bridge  is  under  reconstruc- 
tion in  the  coming  years. 

"For  many  years,  the 
State  Police  helped  traffic 
flow  off  the  bridge,"  said 
Phelan.  "That  service  was 
discontinued  and  now  with 
the  new  construction,  we  are 
beginning  to  see  the  reemer- 


gence  of  traffic  snarls  on  the 
bridge  and  into  Quincy.  We 
need  an  officer  to  help  our 
commuters  and  to  keep  air 
quality  in  the  area  from  de- 
teriorating." 

Phelan  pointed  out  that 
the  idea  to  restore  the  police 
detail  came  from  a  neighbor- 
hood meeting. 

"Many  great  ideas  arise 
from  residents  at  our  com- 
munity meetings,"  he  said. 
"My  administration  prides 
itself  on  a  close  working  re- 
lationship with  the  commu- 
nity and  1  want  to  thank  the 
citizens  who  offered  this  sug- 


gestion. We  are  planning  a 
new  schedule  of  meetings  for 
August  and  September  to 
continue  to  work  closely 
with  our  neighborhoods  and 
our  residents." 


The  Ritz  Motel  at  84 
Hancock  Street  was 
demolished  last  week  nearly 
a  half  century  after  it  first 
opened  and  nearly  a  year  after 
its  last  long  term  or  short 
term  rental. 

According  to  Richard 
Meade  of  Daniel  J.  Flynn 
Real  Estate,  his  firm  plans  to 
hold  neighborhood  meetings 
to  consider  possible  uses  for 
the  property.  At  this  point, 
there  are  no  "specific  plans 
for  redevelopment,"  he  said. 


"We're  not  sure  what 
we're  going  to  propose," 
Meade  said  this  week,  adding 
that  neighborhood  input  will 
be  important.  "We'll  meet 
with  the  neighbors." 

Meade,  also,  said  that  his 
company  had  planned  to 
demolish  the  old  motel 
structure  even  without  city 
officials'  recent 

encouragement. 

The  building  had  become 
a  nuisance  and  a  threat  to 
"public  safety,"  Meade  said. 


Flynn  Real  Estate  purchased 
the  motel  and  land  early  this 
year.  It  is  zoned  Residence  C 
and  can  be  used  for  retail, 
business  or  residences. 

Not  only  the  building  but 
some  of  the  patrons  of  the 
Ritz  Motel  had  become 
something  of  a  nuisance  and 
the  Ritz"  last  hurrah  actually 
arrived  nearly  a  year  ago  after 
visits  by  Quincy  police.

THE  HISTORY  CHANm 


•  On  July  11,  1656,  Ann 

Austin  and  Mary  Fisher,  two 
Englishwomen,  become  the 
first  Quakers  to  immigrate  to 
the  American  colonies  when 
the  ship  carrying  them  lands 
at  Boston.  Shortly  after 
arriving  in  Massachusetts, 
the  two  were  arrested,  jailed 
for  five  years  and  deported. 

•  On  July  10,  1925,  in 
Dayton,  Tenn.,  the  so-called 
Monkey  Trial  begins  with 
John  Thomas  Scopes,  a 
high-school  science  teacher, 
accused  of  teaching  evolu- 
tion in  violation  of  state  law. 
Tlie  law  made  it  a  misde- 
meanor to  "teach  any  theory 
that  denies  the  story  of  the 
Divine  Creation  of  man." 

•On  July  14, 1938,  British 

director  Alfred  Hitchcock 
signs  a  contract  with  David 
O.  Selznick  to  direx:t  movies 
in  Hollywood.  The  son  of  a 
poultry  dealer  and  fruit 
importer,  Hitchcock  entered 
show  business  when  he  was 
hired  to  design  silent-film 
title  cards. 

•  On  July,  9,  1947,  Flo- 
rence Blanchfield  becomes 
the  first  woman  to  hold  per- 
manent military  rank  in  the 
U.  S.  Army.  Blanchfield  had 
served  as  superintendent  of 
the  Army  Nurse  Corps  dur- 


ing World  War  11. 

•  On    July     12,     1957, 

Dwight  D.  Eisenhower 
becomes  the  first  president 
to  ride  in  the  newest  advance 
in  aviation  technology:  the 
helicopter.  The  HMX-1 
"Nighthawks"  squadron  was 
initially  admini.stered  jointly 
by  the  Army  and  the  Marine 
Corps.  In  1976,  the  Marine 
Corps  took  over  all  heli- 
copter operations. 

•  On  July  15,  1971,  Presi- 
dent Richard  Nixon  stuns 
the  nation  by  announcing 
that  he  will  visit  communist 
China.  Nixon  hoped  to  use 
the  promise  of  closer  rela- 
tions with  the  United  States 
to  convince  the  Chinese  to 
put  increased  pressure  on 
North  Vietnam  to  reach  an 
acceptable  peace  settlement 
in  the  war. 

•  On  July  13,  1995,  the 

Chrysler  Corp.  opened  a  car 
dealership  in  Hanoi,  Viet- 
nam. One  of  the  delays  faced 
by  the  foreign  car  company

Bush  No  John  Quincy  Adams 


V'  •* 


ADAMS 


BUSH 


John  Quincy  Adams  and  George  W.  Bush  have  one 
thing  in  common. 

They  followed  their  fathers  into  the  White  House; 
the  only  sons  in 
history  to  do  so. 

But  similarity,  1 
think,  stops  there. 
I  got  to  thinking 
about  them  as  the 
sixth  President's 
240'"       birthday 

approached  Wednesday,  and  with  it  the  traditional 
Presidential  wreath  from  the  White  House  which  was 
placed  on  his  tomb  in  the  crypt  of  United  First  Parish 
Church. 

Adams,  I  believe,  would  have  known  enough  to  stay 
out  of  a  hellhole  like  Iraq. 

Adams  was  better  prepared  for  the  White  House  and 
especially  foreign  affairs,  having  served  as  U.S.  minister 
to  the  Netherlands,  Portugal,  Russia  and  Great  Britain, 
secretary  of  state  and  U.S.  senator  before  being  selected 
President  in  1 824.  He  later  served  with  distinction  as  a 
Congressman. 

History  regards  him  as  one  of  the  greatest  diplomats 
ever-a  far  cry  from  Bush's  cowboy  diplomacy. 

Adams  today  probably  would  have  taken  a  diplomatic 
approach  to  the  Iraq  situation  and  gone  to  war,  as  a  last 
resort-if  war  was  really  needed. 

1  don't  know  how  history  will  treat  Bush  but  it  can't 
overlook  the  Iraq  war,  which  many  see  as  "Bush's 
Blunder." 

He  seemed  gung-ho  to  get  us  there. 
On  March  1 9,  2003  he  issued  orders  to  attack  and  in 
his  address  to  the  American  people  focused  on  Saddam 
Hussein  as  a  villain  and  a  world  threat.  A  villain  he  was 
but  a  world  threat  is  questionable. 

"Our  nation  enters  this  conflict  reluctantly,  yet  our 
purpose  is  sure,"  he  said.  "The  people  of  the  United 
States  and  our  friends  and  allies  will  not  live  at  the 
mercy  of  an  outlaw  regime  that  threatens  the  peace  with 
weapons  of  mass  murder." 

Those  weapons,  of  course,  were  never  found. 
Interestingly,  in  that  speech,  he  never  mentioned  the 
words  terrorist  or  terrorism. 


But  it  became  the  "War  On  Terrorism"  after  we  got 
bogged  down  and  the  death  toll  continued  to  rise. 

Invading  Iraq  would  be  a  slam-dunk,  someone  said. 
The  people  would  throw  flowers  at  us  for  liberating 
them,  Rumsfeld  said.  We  got  suicide  bombs. 

Things  looked  good  at  the  stiul.  Down  came  Saddam's 
statue.  Boy,  that  was  easy. 

Two  months  later  Bush-in  flight  jacket  and  in  the  co- 
pilot's seat  of  a  Navy  plane-landed  on  the  aircraft 
carrier  USS  Abraham  Lincoln  off  the  California  coast. 
And,  with  a  banner  proclaiming  "Mission 
Accomplished"  behind  him,  declared  "the  end  of  major 
combat." 

A  time  to  celebrate? 

Not  exactly. 

The  Associated  Press,  keeping  the  death  toll,  reported 
Sunday  that  3,598  members  of  the  U.S.  military  have 
died  since  the  war  began.  On  Monday  it  became  3,599. 

And,  at  least  26,598  have  been  wounded.  Not  little 
flesh  wounds.  But  loss  of  arms  and  legs  and  severe 
mental  wounds. 

And  the  Iraqi  civilian  deaths  are  in  the  high  thousands. 

Our  men  and  women  over  there  are  now  caught  in 
what  is  turning  into  a  civil  war  but  patriotically  fight  on. 
The  democracy  Bush  desired  is  shaky. 

Bush  toppled  Saddam  but  in  doing  so  removed  a 
deterrent  to  Iran  which  may  be  a  much  bigger  threat 
than  Iraq  ever  was. 

I  think  of  our  young  men  and  women  killed  in  Iraq- 
their  lives  cut  short-and  their  families,  whose  lives  have 
been  tragically  changed  forever. 

We've  been  in  Iraq  more  than  four  years  now-longer 
than  we  were  around  the  world  in  World  War  II. 

And  there  seems  to  be  no  way  out.  If  we  do  get  out, 
there's  a  nagging  question:  what  did  we  really 
accomplish? 

Was  it  worth  the  price  we  have  paid  in  human  lives 
and  billions  and  billions  of  dollars? 

I  voted  for  George  Bush  the  first  time  around  to  get 
some  fresh  air  in  the  Wliite  House  after  the  Clinton- 
Lewinsnky  antics. 

But  now,  as  more  caskets  come  home  from  Iraq,  I 
think  I'd  like  to  have  that  vote  back.

Houghs  Neck  fire  station  just  after  it  was  built  on  the 
corner  of  Manet  Avenue  and  Sea  Street.  This  building 
cost  $5,000  and  it  replaced  an  old  shack  that  had  been 
moved  down  from  Wollaston.  It  was  the  new  home  to 
Hose  Company  No.  5,  which  was  equipped  with  a  new 
horse-drawn  combination  hose  and  chemical  wagon 


with  four  ladders.  In  charge  was  Captain  W.H.  Taylor 
shown  here  with  his  Steward  and  two  call  men  and  their 
dog.  The  electric  trolley  tracks  coming  from  Manet 
Avenue  onto  Sea  Street  can  be  seen  under  the  horses. 
The  present  fire  station  on  this  site  was  built  in  1947.

Opposed  To  Proposed  Track  At  Pageant  Field 


I  am  writing  to  voice  my 
opposition  to  the  proposed 
track  at  Pageant  field. 

This  beautiful  area  is  one 
of  our  most  precious  open 
spaces  enjoyed  by  myriad 
groups  -  families,  sports 
teams,  dog  owners,  and  th,. 
like  on  a  daily  basis.  The 
beauty  of  this  space  is  re- 
flected in  the  abundant  plant 
life,  marsh  and  seascape. 

For  the  past  four  years 
I've  been  taking  my  dog 
there  for  walks  on  the  trails 
and  field.  Dog  owners  who 
use  the  park  have  worked 
hard  the  past  few  years  to 
maintain  the  cleanliness  of 
the  park  and  educate  new- 
comers to  the  need  to  keep 
the  area  clean. 

We  all  recognize  and  ap- 
preciate the  importance  of 
this  space  from  a  historical 


and  cultural  viewpoint  so 

A  Thank  You 


would  like  to  see  preserved 
as  is. 

Regarding  the  track 
project,  this  beautiful  spot 
shouldn't  be  sullied  by  a 
track  which  would  be  uti- 
lized by  a  small  number  of 
people.  The  cutting  of  some 
of  the  oldest  and  most  beau- 
tiful trees  and  relocation  of 
the  boathouse,  not  to  men- 
tion the  water  runoff  and 
impact  of  construction  cre- 
ated by  the  track  will  ruin  the 
area. 

In  his  recent  newsletter 
(Ward  5)  Councillor  (Doug) 
Gutro  cited  that  the  Adams 
family  has  given  "condi- 
tional" approval  to  this 
project. 

To  my  knowledge  there 
aren't  any 

Adams  descendants  even 
living  in  Quincy  at  this  time. 
We  all  appreciate  and  revere 


the  contributions  of  Quincy  "s 
'■first  family"  but  should 
their  influence  trump  the 
wishes  of  those  of  us  who 
live  in,  work  in,  and  support 
this  city  with  our  taKes. 

1  think  not. 

1  don't  believe  the  cost  of 
one  million  dollars  (and  we 
know  it  will  probably  be 
more)  to  build  this  track  is 
financially  prudent  given 
there  are  currently  many  un- 
finished projects  in  this  city. 
The  WWII  War  Memorial  on 
Hancock  Street  and  the  ad- 


jacent "Formal  Gardens", 
started  under  the  previous 
mayor's  term,  stand  incom- 
plete as  an  ever  present  eye- 
sore. Especially  on  a  windy 
day  when  the  piles  of  dirt 
kick  up  dust  clouds.  It's  be- 
come a  sad  symbol  of  the 
city's  level  of  neglect  to 
projects  like  this. 

Before  we  spend  money 
on  new  projects  let's  finish 
the  old  ones  first.

Quincy  luUive  Maria

songs  these  days,  as  she  is 
the  2007  (irand  Champion 
ol  I'opSearcli. 

Just  last  week,  hall  a 
niillion  people  applauded  her 
when  she  sang  "Not  While 
I'm  Around"  on  llie 
fsplanatle  with  eonduelor 
Keith  Loekharl  and  the 
Hoslon  Pops  Orchestra  on 
July  4. 

Perry  was  center  stage  on 
Independence  Day  because

Alieail  IS  a  ti\e-day 
August  lour  with  the  Hoslon 
Pops  and  likely  more  ilates 
lor  the  5l-year-i)kl  singer 
wlu>  grew  up  ni  Wollaston 
andgraduatedlroin  St.  Ann's 
School,  North  Quincy,  and 
I'ont  bonne  Acailemy, 
Milton.  She  then  studied  at 
Boston  Conservatory  of 
Music. 

Perry,  who  now  lives  in 
Kansas  City,  Missouri  City, 
hadn't  sung  for  10  years  until 
this  spring  w  hen  her  brother. 
Hob  iVrry  of  Milton,  urged 
her  to  enter  the  PopSearch 
2007  contest. 

"My  brother  sent  me  ane- 
mail.  He  ti>ld  me  about  the 
competition,"  Perry  said  in  a 
telepht>ne  inteiA  lew  with  The 
Quincy  Sun  from  Kansas  City 
this  week.  "Sometimes,  you 
have  to  challenge  yourself 
and  go  for  it." 

Perry  credits  her  husband, 
John  Stock,  for  getting  her 
performance  of  "I'll  Be 
Seeing  You,"  on  YouTubc, 
the  Internet  site,  for  the  early 


MAKIA  PKKKY  siiiKs  with  Boston  Pops  on  the  Ksplunade 
during;  the  Fourth  of  ,)uly  Celebration 


May  screening  of  contestants 
and  voting  by  viewers. 

"My  husband  knt)ws 
computers.  He  was  able  to 
get  it  up  and  running."  Perry 
said,  recalling  that  that  first 
Internet  competition 

narrowed  the  field  to  16. 
Stock,  a  native  of  Kansas 
City,  is  a  project  managers 
and  business  analyst. 

From  early  May  through 
the  end  of  June,  there  were 
grueling  competitions  with 
hundreds  of  singers  in  BostiMi 
and o\er the  net.  Perry  topped 
them  all  and  was  named 
PopSearch  champion  on  J  une 
29. 

On  May  20.  Perry  was 
chosen  as  a  quarter  finalist. 
The  Boston  Pops  tlew  her  to 
Boston  where  she  and  15 
other  contestants  competed 
in  Symphony  Hall  before  a 
live  audience  and  three 


judges. 

The  16  individual 
performances  were  once 
again  put  on  the  Internet  for 
online  voting  so  anyone, 
anywhere  in  the  world,  could 
vote.  At  this  point,  the  live 
audience  and  the  judges  at 
Symphony  Hall  also  weighed 
in  on  the  decision. 

"A  lot  of  people  in  Quincy 
voted  for  me,"  Perry  said  of 
the  online  support. 

Throughout  June,  the 
voting  continued  online  as 
the  field  was  cut  to  six 
contestants  and  then,  three. 
One  of  the  most  e.xciting  day  s 
for  Perry  was  June  28  w  hen 
she  sang  in  Symphony  Hall 
before  a  live  audience  with 
the  full  orchestra  as  back-up. 

And  the  rest  is  history. 
The  following  day,  the 
winner  was  announced.

a  dream  come  true."  Perry 
said  this  week  during  her  first 
days  back  home  in  Kansas 
City  altera  week  with  family 
and  Iriends  in  the  Boston 
area. 

"1  ended  up  seeing  so 
many  people.  My  family 
threw  me  a  party."  vShe  said, 
recalling  the  celebrations  on 
the  South  Shore.  "1  was  able 
to  catch  up  with  my  family 
which  was  great.  Then, 
friends  and  family,  also, 
celebrated  in  Kansas  City. 

As  the  contest  continued. 
Perry  got  support  trom 
friends  and  former 
schoolmates  from  the  South 
Shore.  She  got  e-mails  from 
old  friends  w  ith  whom  she'd 
lost  touch.  "A  lot  of  people  1 
knew  30  years  ago.  People 
Id  sung  with. 

They  supported  me  every 
step  of  the  way.  I'm  so  lucky 
to  have  such  support.  Such 
an  outpouring,"  Perry  said. 
As  a  teenager.  Perry 
sang  at  weddings  and  services 
and  choirs  and  then,  in  her 
twenties,  in  Boston  clubs.  She 
has  so  many  favorite  songs 
in  her  repertoire  that  she  sings 
country.  Western,  vocal  for 
bands,  and  cabaret  songs.  "I 
love  so  many  genres  of 
music." 

As  for  her  talent,  it  comes 
from  her  family. 

"Everybody  in  my  family 
is  very  artistic,"  she  said.  Her 
mother  Edie  Perry  was  a 
music  teacher  and  vice- 
principal  of  St.  Ann's  School. 
"  1  grew  up  with  music.  It 
was  everywhere." 

Perry's  mother  now  lives 
in  Milton  with  her  brother 
Bob.  She,  also,  has  three 
sisters.  Diane  lives  near  San 
Francisco;  Suzanne  in 
Chelsea  and  Donna  in 
Beverly. 

In  recent  years.  Perry 
worked  in  business  but 
recently  became  a  certified 
ZUMBA  instructor  as  a  way 
of  keeping  music  in  her  work. 
The  new  ZUMBA  aerobics 
regime  is  based  on  Latin 
dance  music. 

As  for  her  roots  in  Quincy, 
Perry  well  remembers 
Wollaston  Beach  and  she  and 
her  husband  return  frequently 
for  family  visits. 

Her  home  now  is  Kansas 
City  where  they  have  lived 
for  the  better  part  of  a  decade . 

"Right  now,  it  where  our 
home  is.  It's  charming  and 
it's  lovely  and  my  husband' s 
family  is  here."  She  said, 
adding,  "We  do  go  back  and 
forth  a  lot."

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Wednesday,  June  6,  at  approximately  10:30  a.m.. 
Detectis  e/Licutenant  Richard  McCusker  met  with  his 
detectives  to  set  up  a  sting  on  a  suspect  involved  in 
stolen  credit  cards.  He  informed  them  the  Quincy  Po- 
lice Department  received  information  from  the  loss 
prevention  manager  at  Neiman  Marcus  in  Boston  that 
credit  card  information 
on  many  clients  were  sto- 
len from  one  ol  their 
stores  in  Las  Vegas  and 
all  stores  were  notified. 

The  manager  stated  a 
woman  called  the  jew- 
elry department  and 
placed  an  order  for  a  Ta- 
hitian  pearl  necklace, 
valued  at  $7,500.  She 
gave  her  name  and  ac- 
count number,  adding  she  wanted  the  necklace  shipped 
to  a  college  roommate  living  in  Quincy. 

Neiman  Marcus  Loss  Prevention  recognized  the 
name  of  the  college  roommate  and  the  address  be- 
cause this  was  the  second  telephone  order  placed  by 
someone  on  the  stolen  list  and  shipped  to  the  same 
female  suspect  in  Quincy.  When  the  order  for  the  Ta- 
hitian  pearl  was  not  shipped,  the  female  suspect  called 
to  find  out  why. 

She  was  told  that  there  was  a  problem  with  the  ac- 
count. The  female  suspect  said  she  accidentally  gave 
her  maiden  name  and  then  gave  another  stolen  card 
name  (with  the  same  first  name)  and  number. 

Loss  Prevention  was  aware  of  the  second  attempt 
and  allowed  the  sale  to  go  through  with  the  intent  on 
catching  the  suspect.  The  suspect  again  called  inquir- 
ing where  her  necklace  was  and  was  told  there  was  an 
error  on  the  shipping  address. 

Lt.  McCusker  and  Detectives  Dennis  Maloney  and 
Jason  Maclsaac  went  to  Federal  Express  in  Randolph 
to  intercept  the  package  and  create  a  plan  to  catch  the 
suspect(s).  Detective  Maclsaac  was  provided  a  Fed- 
eral Express  uniform,  delivery  forms  and  the  package 
from  Neiman  Marcus. 

Using  an  unmarked  white  van.  Detective  Maclsaac 
pulled  up  to  the  Fayette  Street  address  and  rang  the 
bell  with  clipboard  and  package  in  hand.  A  female 
answered  the  door  and  confirmed  she  was  the  person 
as  the  name  on  the  package.  Once  she  signed  for  the 
package.  Detective  Lt.  McCusker.  Det.  Maloney  and 
Officer  Tom  Pepdjonovic  came  to  the  door  and  asked 
the  suspect  if  they  could  come  in  to  talk  to  her. 

The  suspect/resident  was  advised  about  the  inves- 
tigation and  she  denied  any  involvement,  but  did  state 
that  she  just  arrived  in  Massachusetts  after  being  in 
Las  Vegas  last  week.  The  suspect  was  advised  that 
she  could  face  criminal  charges,  but  she  continued  to 
deny  any  involvement. 

Other  people  in  the  apartment  were  the  suspect's 
sister  and  the  suspect's  ex-husband.  It  was  soon 
learned  the  suspect  had  two  warrants  in  California  and 
one  in  Quincy.  She  was  placed  under  arrest  and  trans- 
ported to  the  station  for  booking. 

The  detectives  asked  the  residents  if  they  could 
search  the  apartment  and  they  consented.  They 
checked  the  area  around  the  computer  and  found  a 
pile  of  "customer  special  order  forms  from  Neiman 
Marcus  in  a  trash  barrel  torn  in  pieces.  On  the  papers 
were  the  names  of  the  credit  card  victims  and  orders 
placed  under  their  names. 

Permission  was  given  to  access  the  computer  and 
additional  information  was  obtained  showing  that  the 
computer  was  used  to  place  orders.  More  importantly, 
there  was  an  email  showing  that  the  suspect,  with  ac- 
tual maiden  name,  had  travel  plans  to  leave  for  Viet- 
nam on  July  15th. 

Loss  Prevention  was  notified  of  the  successful  end- 
ing. They  said  that  they  would  forward  a  videotape 
of  the  suspect  in  the  Las  Vegas  store  to  help  prosecute 
her.  They  also  stated  that  the  suspect  was  the  focus  of 
an  ongoing  investigation  involving  a  compromised 
customers  American  Express  account,  with  $20,000. 
worth  of  unauthorized  gift  cards. 

The  suspect,  a  23  year  old  transient,  was  charged 
with  "Larceny  over  $250.  Identity  Fraud,  Attempting 
to  Commit  a  Crime  and  Receiving  Stolen  Property 
under  $250,  for  the  stolen  customer  order  forms  from 
the  Las  Vegas  store.

Cites  Security  Concern 

Phelan  Asks  MBTA  For 

Anti-Graffiti  Barrier 

At  Neponset  Bridge 


A  permanent  barrier  tei 
prevent  graffiti  spray  paint- 
ing of  the  train  bridge  over 
the  Neponset  River,  is  sought 
by  Mayor  Wilham  Phelan. 

Phelan,  in  a  letter  to 
MBTA  General  Manager 
Dan  Grabauskas,  thanked  the 
MBTA  for  their  past  work  in 
removing  the  graffiti  but  said 
a  permanent  barrier  would 
prevent  vandals  from  further 
spray-painting. 

"This  is  a  most  visible  lo- 
cation and  a  main  entrance 
to  our  city,'  said  Phelan.  'The 


MBTA  has  responded  to  re- 
quests to  remove  the  graffiti 
but  I  think  its  best  we  spend 
our  resources  in  solving  the 
problem  instead  of  respond- 
ing to  it.  Mr.  Grabauskas  is  a 
good  manager  and  1  am  con- 
fident that  we  can  work  to- 
ward a  solution  to  this 
blight." 

The  MBTA  had  removed 
a  large  graffiti  problem  on 
the  bridge  in  the  past  months. 
Shortly  after  the  old  graffiti 
was  removed,  new  graffiti 


appeared. 

"Aside  fri»ni  being  an  aes- 
thetic nuisance,  it  would 
strike  me  as  a  security  con- 
cern that  anyone  can  simply 
access  the  bridge,"  said 
Phelan.  "Thousands  of  com- 
muters cross  this  bridge  ev- 
ery morning  and  1  think  im- 
proving the  security  to  the 
bridge  is  a  valuable  and  nec- 
essary idea.  I  ask  that  the 
MBTA  work  toward  finding 
a  permanent  solution  to  the 
security  problem."

nance stating  that  no  food 
can  be  sold  within  100  feet 
from  a  park  or  playground 
Scheele  said  concessions  can 
be  done  on  a  temporary  ba- 
sis such  as  flag  day  or  other 
special  events. 

Palmer  said  the  city  of 
Quincy  is  "busthng"  and  that 
his  type  of  concession  would 
"attract  tourists." 


He  said  although  some 
people  refer  to  the  conces- 
sion as  a  "hot  dog  stand"  he 
refers  is  as  "a  business." 

Chairman  Joseph  Shea 
said  there  was  once  a  conces- 
sion at  that  space,  but  the 
ordnance  at  the  time  was  not 
clear.  He  said  the  board  had 
to  choice,  and  added  he 
"feels  bad  for  Scott."

need  to  replace  it.  What  are 
my  iH-st  <>pti<»ns  tor  durahle 
siding  that  will  stand  up  to

otTeriny  me  the  broud  sty  le 
and  color  selections  I 
want? 

A.  When  sexeie  storm 
patterns  pop  up  on  the 
weather  map.  the  last  thing 
homet)wners  want  to  think 
about  is  the  damage  that 
storms  could  cause  to  the 
exterior  of  their  homes. 
Storms  can  create  fierce  wind 
gusts  that  can  cause  objects 


111  the  past,  homeowners 
had  \er\  tew  option.s  for 
weatJier-resistant  siding  with 
good  \isual  appeal. 
.According  to  Realtor 
Maga/ine.  new  siding  can 
cost  up  to  S6.0()()  for  the 
a\  erage-si/ed  home,  so  w  hy 
shouldn't  homeowners  gel 
the  best  ol  both  worlds  lor 
that  amount  ol  money? 
boriunatel\.  durable  siding 
is  nov\  a\aihible  that  is 
pleasing  to  the  eye  and 
warranted  to  last  for  many 
years. 

1  recommend  choosing  a 
vinyl  or  polymer  siding. 
These  materials  maintain 
their  integrity  for  years,  and 
the  upkeep  is  minimal.  At 
worst,  you  will  occasionally 


to  dent  siding  and  even  tear  it      need  to  wash  dirt  off  the 
off  completely.  sidmg  with  an  average  garden 


hose.  They  are  ver\  low 
maintenance. 

One  good  option  is 
Monogram  46  vinyl  siding 
from  C'ertainTeed 

Corporation.  The  46  means 
the  material  is  .046'"  thick,  so 
it  has  increased  strength  and 
impact  resistance.  It  is  also 
designed  to  w ithstand  wind- 
loaded  pressure  up  to  222 
miles  per  hour  and  leatures 
the  wisest  color  selection  of 
any  siding,  making  style 
choices  endless. 

So  the  ne.xt  lime  severe 
weather  storms  through  your 
town,  know  that  your  siding 
can  stand  out  and  stand  up  to 
whatever  is  blown  its  way.

Tips  To  Help  Homebuyers  Create 
The  Rooms  Of  Their  Dreams 


(NAPS)  -  Decorating 
doesn't  have  to  be  confusing 
tor  first-time  homebuyers. 
Starting  with  the  basics  and 
slowly  adding  small, 
decorative  touches  can  help 
first-time  homebuyers  feel 
more  at  home.  Here  are  some 
decorating  tips: 

Be^in  With  a  Budget 

Allocate  dollars  lor 
flooring,  paint,  furniture, 
decorating  accessories  and 
any  additional  items.  Then 
make  a  list  of  "needs,"  such 
as  a  sofa  and  coffee  table, 
and  a  list  of  "wants."  such  as 
a  portable  kitchen  island  or  a 
plasma  television. 

Start  with  the  Basics 

Take  inventory  of 
furniture  items  that  will  make 
the  move  into  the  new  home 
and  those  that  will  not.  Select 
furniture  to  keep  based  on 
your  new  decorating  style  or 
start  with  a  new  sofa. 

For  example,  La-Z-Boy 
offers  something  for  every 
decorating  ta.ste,  including 
La-Z-Boy  "Quinn"  sofa, 
which  features  a 

contemporary  look,  and  the 
elegant  "Sheffield."  This  1 1- 
piece  sectional  and  sofa 
group  allows  for  a  multitude 
of  configurations  that  can  be 
customized  to  fit  any  room. 

For  those  facing  space 
challenges,       look       for

furnishings  that  combine 
fashion  with  function. 

A  sleep  sofa,  for  instance, 
performs  double  duty, 
turning  a  den  into  an  instant 
guestroom  w  hen  out-of-town 
guests  arrive.  Likewise,  a 
storage  ottoman  such  as  the 
La-Z-Boy  "Cory"  can  double 
as  a  cocktail  table,  while 
hiding  maga/ines,  toys  and 

dvl:)s. 

Plan  Ahead 

Before  making  furniture 
purchases,  plan  the  layout  of 
the  room.  First-time  buyers 
may  have  a  hard  time 
visualizing  how  their  favorite 
chair  and  new  sofa  group  will 
all  fit  together  in  the  same 
space.  That's  why 
lazyboy.com  offers  two- 
dimensional  room-planning 
technology  that  lets  visitors 
create  and  view  their  own 
room  layouts  on  the  computer 
screen. 

Also,  for  those  working 
with  an  existing  color 
scheme,  many  La-Z-Boy 
Furniture  Galleries  offer 
Kaleidoscope,  which  works 
with  customers  to  select 
fabrics  that  will  coordinate 
with  existing  colors  or  create 
a  room  with  inspiration  from 
a  favorite  accessory. 

Shoppers  simply  bring  the 
item  of  their  choice  to  a 
participating   store  to  be 


scanned. 

The  color-matching 
system  compares  the  cok>r 
of  the  item  with  more  than 
I .{)()()  textiles  in  the  line  and 
recommends  base  or  accent 
fabrics  that  either  match  or 
coordinate  with  the  scanned 
acccsst)r\ . 

Add  a  louch  of  Color 

Once  furniture  fabrics  are 
selected,  homeowners  can 
start  building  acolor  scheme. 

Take  the  color  selected  lor 
your  sofa  and  pick  two 
complementary  colors. 
Repeat  each  color  a  mininiuni 
of  three  trfnes  throughout  the 
room  in  wall  coverings, 
pillows,  rugs,  window 
treatments  and  accessories. 
This  will  help  tie  all  items  in 
the  room  together. 

Get  Personal 

It's  time  to  accessorize. 
Use  a  wedding  photo  album 
as  a  coffee-table  book,  frame 
pictures  of  family  and  friends 
or  display  shells  and  rocks 
collected  on  vacation  to  make 
the  home  more  warm  and 
welcoming. 

Personal  touches  are  what 
truly  transform  a  house  into  a 
home.  And  if  first-time 
homeowners  still  feel  that  all 
hope  is  lost,  the  galleries  also 
offer  free  in-home  design 
assistance  to  help  pull  it  all 
toeether.

Knobs  on  Stove 
Are  Hard-to-Read 

Q,  I  have  a  huge  com- 
•  plaint  about  the 
t>urner  controls  on  stoves, 
and  I  haven't  seen  any 
information  on  how  to  fix 
it.  Since  my  mid-40s.  my 
vision  has  steadily 
declined,  and  I  need  to 
wear  strong  gla.s.ses  to  see. 
However,  despite  having  a 
new  eyeglass  prescription, 
I  still  cannot  see  the  little 
printed  indicators  that 
show  which  burner  is  con- 
trolled by  each  knob!  Is  a 
stove  available  with  large- 
format  indicators?  If  not. 
how  can  I  fix  the  indicators 
so  that  I  can  see  them? 
Thanks.  —  Pat  in  Atlanta 

A, A  temporary  fix  is  to 
•  repaint  the  small  red 
indicator  dots  in  a  brighter 
color,  like  fluorescent  yel- 
low or  pink.  Not  much  paint 
is  needed  for  this,  so  pick  up 
the  smallest  can  available. 
The  paint  department  man- 
ager at  your  local  home- 
improvement  store  can  also 
guide  you  toward  the  right 
type  and  color.  To  ^>ply,  use 
a  small,  pointed-tip  artist's 


brush  and  place  a  dot  of 
paint  over  the  old  color  on 
the  indicator. 

Tlie  paint  dot  may  not  last 
too  long,  and  you'll  need  to 
redo  the  dots  every  few 
months.  It  a\.>o  doesn't  solve 
the  pniblem  of  the  indicator 
dots  being  too  small.  I  don't 
know  if  indicator  stickers 
are  available  that  can  be 
applied  over  the  old  indica- 
tors, but  you  can  contact  an 
appliance  store  to  see  if 
those  are  available. 

TTie  most  expensive  option 
is  to  replace  your  stove  with 
a  new  one  that  leatures  larg- 
er indicators.  Ilie  biggest 
benefit  in  this  case  is  choice 
and  safety:  you  can  pick  out 
exactly  which  stove  works 
best  for  you,  and  select  one 
with  additional  safety  fea- 
tures such  as  larger  control 
knobs  and  burners  that  shut 
off  automatically.

Journal  Shows 
Commitment 

Q,  My  friend  recently 
.  mt't  with  a  personal 
trainer  after  joining  a  new 
fitness  center,  and  she  was 
asked  to  begin  keeping  a 
daily  lifestyle  log.  The  log 
i.s  supposed  to  keep  track 
of  her  nutrition  and  other 
activities  throughout  the 
day.  After  a  week  she  Ls 
supposed  to  turn  in  the  log 
so  she  can  dLscuss  it  with 
her  trainer.  Would  keeping 
a  lifestyle  log  henefit  me? 
I'm  trying  to  become 
healthy  and  lose  a  little 
weight. 

A,  Maintaininj;  a  journal 
•  or  lifestyle  lop  is  a 
ver>  eflecti\e  way  to  stay 
coniiiutled  to  yv>ur  fitness 
eoals  ;uni  \o  have  a  written 
ai.count  trackinj:  the 
prtvess.  Although  not  a  new 
concept,  the  traditional  IihkI 
log  can  be  mixlified  to 
include  cxea-ise.  activities 
and  other  components  nec- 
essary to  a  heaJthy  lifestyle. 

Many  fitness  professionals 
are  asking  clients  to  keep 
logs  so  they  can  to  get  a 
snapshot  of  what  is  happen- 
ing with  their  clients  when 
they're  not  meeting  with 
them,  and  to  better  help 
them  develop  realistic  goals. 
Most  people  meet  with  a 
trainer  or  fitness  profession- 
al only  a  few  times  a  week, 
leaving  plenty  ol  unknown 
lifestyle  habits. 

Developing  or  maintaining 
a  healthy  lifestyle  iiKludes 
factors  not  often  realized. 
The  traditional  nutrition 
logs/joumals  include  moni- 
tonng  eating  habits  by  keep- 
mg  track  of  calories,  portion 
sizes  and  fluid  intake. 
Lifestyle  logs  also  include 
daily  exeaise  completed, 
hours  of  sleep  per  day.  activ- 
ities outside  of  organized 
exercise  —  such  as  playing 


with  your  children  or  walk- 
ing the  dog  —  and  levels  of 
perceived  stress. 

Noting  on  a  .scale  of  1  to  10 
how  well  you  feel  with  each 
lifestyle  component  is  also 
helpful.  For  example,  if  you 
only  got  five  hours  of  sleep, 
you  would  note  whether  you 
felt  well-rested,  fatigued  or 
tired  throughout  the  day. 

After  keeping  a  log  for  a 
few  days  of  normal  activity, 
the  results  can  be  used  to 
help  make  changes  to  your 
current  nutritional  and 
lifestyle  routines  to  help  you 
reach  your  goals.  You  might 
be  ania/cd  at  how  just  a  few 
tweaks  can  make  a  major 
difference.  You  can  also 
keep  past  logs  a.s  a  guideline 
lor  you  to  sec  what  worked 
and  what  did  not  work  for 
you. 

When  keeping  a  log  of 
your  daily  activities,  it  is 
most  important  to  be  honest. 
Withholding  infomiation  is 
only  going  to  keep  you  from 
reaching  your  goals. 
Lifestyle  logs  can  also  be 
used  to  hold  yourself 
accountable.  Knowing  you 
will  have  to  write  down  a 
poor  lifestyle  choice  might 
make  you  think  twice  before 
doing  it. 

Whether  you  are  meeting 
with  a  fitness  professional  or 
managing  your  own  fitness 
program,  keeping  a  lifestyle 
log  can  be  an  extremely  use- 
ful tool,  and  might  be  the 
missing  link  in  developing  a 
healthy  lifestyle. 

Always  consult  a  physician 
before  beginning  an  exercise 
program.  If  you  ha\e  a  fit- 
ness or  training  question,  e-

A  GROWING  POSSIBILITY 


If  recent  research  pnnidc-- 
any  indication,  ii  ma>  somtxla)  be 
possible  to  grou  new  tooth 
enamel  horn  cultured  cells.  This 
breakthrough  w  ould  enable  dcn- 
usls  to  prtxluce  tissue  that  could 
be  used  to  replace  damaged  or 
missing  enamel.  Ordinarily.  lixHh 
enamel  cannot  regenerate  because 
it  is  formed  by  a  layer  of  cells  that 
is  lost  by  the  time  the  t(K>th  makes 
its  appearance  in  the  mouth.  As 
part  of  the  new  research,  scien- 
tists found  that  developing  epithe- 
liaJ  cells  continued  to  pailiferaie 
when  the  cells  were  cultured  on 
top  of  special  "feed"  layers  of 
cells.  When  these  epithelial  cells 
weie  mixed  with  cells  from  the 
middle  of  the  tooth  (dental  mes- 
enchymal cells)  and  placed  on 
miniature  "scaffolds,"  enamel- 
like tissue  formed  after  four 
wedcs.

P.S.  Currently,  one  of  the  best 
ways  for  the  dentist  to  replace 
missing  enamel  on  worn  or  dam-

looth  surface  with  a  coat  (or  coats)

According     to    travel 
medicine  specialist  Bradley 


A.  Connor,  M.D..  Past 
F^resident,  International 
Society  of  Travel  Medicine, 
"This  new  vaccine  dt)sing

Vaccination  is  recommended 
for  people  at  risk  of  infection 
who  are  traveling  to  areas 
where  hepatitis  A  and 
hepatitis   B   viruses   are 


commcm. 

"Hepatitis  A  and  hepatitis 
B  are  serious  liver  diseases 
which  can  be  prevented 
through  vaccination,"  says 
Dr.  Connor.  "Twinrix's  new

with  the  hepatitis  A  virus. 
Hepatitis  B  is  commonly 
transmitted  through  infected

Keeping  Pets  Healthy  During  Hot  Weather 


By  MARTHA  M.  SMITH, 
DVM 

(Boston,  MA)  -  With  the 
la/\  days  of  summer  upon 
us.  dont  forget  what  the 
transition  to  w  armer  weather 
means  for  your  familv  "s  pet. 

Longer  day  s.  more  travel 
and  increased  physical 
activ  ity  can  really  take  a  toll 
on  your  cat  or  dog.  How  ever, 
you  can  allev  iate  a  lot  of  stress 
and  offset  any  potential 
health  problems  b\  adopting 
these  simple  guidelines: 

•  Never  leave  your  dog  in 
the  car  even  with  the 
w indows  cracked.  Although 
it  may  seem  cool  outside,  the 


temperature  inside  your  car 
can  easily  as  high  as  150 
degrees  in  matter  of  minutes. 
If  you're  planning  to  run  a 
few  errands,  it's  best  to  lea\  e 
the  pets  at  home. 

•  Be  sure  to  check  the 
w  ater  level  in  your  pet "  s  bow  1 
regularly,  and  plan  on 
bnnging  extra  bottled  water 
for  your  dog  or  cat  when 
tra\  cling  aw  ay  from  home. 

•  Make  a  point  of  keeping 
your  pet  on  a  leash  to  ensure 
that  they  don't  get  lost  and/or 
ingest  anything  that  could 
make  them  sick. 

•  If  your  pet  has  light  skin 
or  hair,  apply  sunscreen  to 


the  animal's  ears  and  nose 
and  allow  them  to  rest  in  a 
shady  spot  regularly. 

•  Hot  weather  may 
encourage  pets  to  drink  from 
puddles,  so  be  sure  that  your 
dri\  ew  ay  and  yard  are  free  of 
any  potential  toxins.  After  a 
heavy  rain,  feUilizer,  weed 
killer  and  other  common  law  n 
chemicals  can  contaminate 
puddles,  and  antifreeze  poses 
specific  hazards  due  to  its 
sweet  taste.  Even  small  doses 
of  these  chemicals  can  be 
fatal.  Puddles  can  also 
contain  deadly  bactena  called 
leptospirosis. 

•  Check  your  pet  for  insect 


stings  and  bites.  Typically 
the  affected  area  will  be 
swollen,  but  take  note  of  any 
other  symptoms  and  monitor 
them.  If  the  animal  seems 
especially  uncomfortable  or 
if  the  swelling  is  excessive, 
consult  your  veterinarian  to 
ensure  that  your  pet  isn't 
having  an  allergic  reaction. 
•  Be  sure  to  keep  your  pet 
current  on  a  flea  and  tick 
preventative  and  apply  it 
monthly.  Products  obtained 
through  your  veterinarian 
work  best  and  will  help 
reduce  the  risk  of  tick  borne 
diseases  such  as  Lyme 
disease. 


Food  And  Nutrition  Myth  Busters 


By  MINDY  HERMANN, 
R.D. 

(NAPS)  -  It  is  easy  to  find 
out  almost  anything  about 
food  and  nutrition  on  the 
Internet;  unfortunately,  the 
infonnation  is  not  always 
accurate.  Here  are  a  few 
common  food  and  nutrition 
myths  and  truths: 

Myth:  Avoid  vegetables 
because  they  may  be 
contaminated. 

Truth:  "Vegetables  and 
fruits  are  essential  elements 
of  a  healthy  diet.  Use  proper 
food  handling  and  cleaning 
techniques  and  rinse  all  your 
vegetables  and  fruits  in 
nmning  water,"  advises  Dr. 
Wouct.  Remember  to  rinse 
melons  and  odm  produce 


with  skin  or  rinds  to  prevent 
contamination  from  bacteria 
on  the  skin. 

Myth:  Milk  allergies  are 
very  common. 

Truth:  "Many  people 
mistakenly  think  that  the 
bloating  and  gas  of  lactose 
intolerance  is  an  allergy. 
Lactose  intolerance  is  more 
common  and  occurs  when 
the  body  does  not  produce 
enough  lactase,  an  enzyme 
needed  to  digest  milk,"  says 
Ellen  Mandel,  PA-C,  R.D., 
C.D.E.,  an  assistant  professor 
at  Seton  Hall  University  in 
New  Jersey.  "People  who 
cannot  tolerate  lactose  often 
can  eat  low-fat  varieties  of 
yogurt  and  cheese  as  a  source 
of     calcium."     Finding 


alternative  sources  of 
calcium  may  also  be  helpful, 
such  as  Whole  Grain  Total, 
Total  Raisin  Bran  and  Total 
Honey  Clusters,  which  are 
high  in  calcium. 

Myth:  Sugar  makes 
people  hyperactive. 

Truth:  "Research  does 
not  show  a  Unk  between  sugar 
and  hyperactivity  in  adults 
or  children,"  advises  Judy 
Dodd,  M.S.,  R.D.,  L.D.N., 
an  Adjunct  Assistant 
Professor  at  the  University 
of  Pittsburgh.  "Nonetheless, 
foods  high  in  sugar  but  low 
in  nutrition  contribute  empty 
calories  and  should  not  take 
the  place  of  healthy  foods." 

Myth:  Food  eaten  in  the 
evening  turns  to  body  fat. 


Truth:  "Too  many 
calories  eaten  over  the  course 
of  a  day  or  week  will  turn 
into  fat,  regardless  of  the  time 
of  day,"  says  Dodd.  "Many 
people  are  in  the  habit  of 
snacking  after  dinner  an  may 
not  realize  how  quickly  those 
calories  add  up." 

Myth:  High- 

carbohydrate  foods  are 
fattening  and  should  be 
Umited  when  trying  to  lose 
weight. 

Truth:  Many  high- 
carbohydrate  foods-bread, 
pasta,  cereals  and  fruits-are 
low  in  fat  and  relatively  low 
in  calories.  For  smart  weight 
loss,  eat  fewer  calories,

Morrisette  Leaves 
Holbrook  In  A  Haze,  3-0 


Sports 


By  DOMENIC  POLI 

Ha/.e  put  an  early  cap  on 
Morrisette's  Monday  night 
game  against  Holbrook  as 
players  were  unable  to  see 
the  ball  due  the  thick  fog, 
forcing  umpires  to  call  the 
game  in  the  bottom  of  the 
sixth. 

Morrisette  (7-7-1)  won 
the  abbreviated  matchup  3- 
0.  The  winning  pitcher  was 
Joe  Garland. 

The  bottom  of  the  third 
was  when  Morrisette  got  its 
offense  pumping. 

The  inning's  first  batter, 
Morrisette  catcher  Matt 
Rodriguez,  pounded  a 
double  to  left  field.  After 
Rodriguez  moved  to  third  on 
the  ground  out  back  to  the 
pitcher  by  second  baseman 
Glen  Misho,  Carberry  legged 
out  a  single  to  shortstop  and 
would  soon  steal  second 
base.  Ricky  Salvucci  would 
walk  two  batters  later,  setting 
the  table  for  Johnny  Orlando. 

Orlando's  rocket  that  one- 
hoped  the  left  field  fence  put 
a  quarter  in  Morrisette's 
merry-go-round,  as  the 
basepaths  cleared  and  three 
runs  came  around  to  score. 

"He  got  the  big  hits.  I 
think  he's  our  top  hitter," 
Morrisette  manager  Ray 
Cattaneo  said  after  the  game. 
"And  he's  playing  a  good 
shortstop." 

Connelly  then  grounded 
out  to  short  to  end  the  inning. 

Adam's  Field's  dimen- 
sions provided  a  little  excite- 
ment for  both  teams  in  the 
top  of  fourth. 

First,  Vega  started  things 
off  by  scorching  a  line  drive 
right  past  Garland  head,  into 
center  field.  Then,  Doherty 
walked  on  four  pitches. 

That's  when  things  got 
interesting. 

On  a  passed  ball,  Vega 
and  Doherty  raced  to  ad- 
vance to  the  next  base.  The 
backstop's  thick,  bouncy 
padding,  however,  deflected 
the  ball  right  into  the  hands 
of  catcher  Matt  Rodriguez. 


LEGION  BASEBALL 


Trying  to  get  the  runners  to 
go  back  to  where  they 
started,  Rodriguez  fired  the 
ball  to  Connelly  at  first. 
Connelly  then  threw  it  over 
to  Salvucci  at  third.  Salvucci 
then  chased  Vega  all  the  way 
up  to  second  base  and  tagged 
him  out,  ousting  the  lead  run- 
ner from  the  field. 

Doherty,  however,  man- 
aged to  take  second  in  the 
long,  dizzying  play. 

Nothing  would  amount 
from  the  fourth  inning,  as 
McSweeney  struck  out 
swinging  and  Rudin  was  re- 
tired by  a  full-extension  div- 
ing catch  by  Vialpando  in 
center. 

The  game  remained  fairly 
quiet  until  the  top  of  the  fifth, 
when  Garland  ran  into  a  httle 
trouble. 

He  could  not  seem  to  find 
his  control  and  walked  the 
inning's  first  three  batters. 
After  a  brief  mound  meeting 
with  his  coach.  Garland  gath- 
ered his  composure  and  re- 
tired the  next  three  hitters  in 
order.  He  got  Merrigan  to 
pop  out  to  Connelly  in  foul 
territory,  struck  out 
Campbell  swinging  and  got 
Vega  to  ground  out  to  third 
to  dig  himself  out  of  a  jam. 

"This  is  what  we  worry 
about  with  Joe  because  he 
doesn't  pitch  that  much  and 
if  he  starts  walking  them,  he 
can  get  pretty  wild," 
Cattaneo  said.  "But  he  came 
out  of  it.  He  got  the  next 
three  batters  [with]  no  prob- 
lem. That  was  it.  That  was 
the  game  right  there." 

In  the  bottom  of  the  fifth, 
Vialpando  began  things  by 
hitting  a  soft  liner  that  was 
caught  by  the  first  baseman. 
Salvucci  then  single  to  left, 
but  was  caught  stealing  by 
Holbrook  catcher  Richie 
Ring.  A  great  tag  by  second 
baseman  John  Micciche  sent 
Salvucci  back  to  the  dugout. 
Orlando  then  grounded 
out  to  short  to  end  the  innine. 


After  a  scoreless  top  of 
the  sixth,  Connelly  got  up  in 
the  bottom  half  and  reached 
on  an  error  by  Doherty  at 
short. 

That  is  where  the  umpires 
called  a  timeout.  Ha/e  had 
been  building  up  rapidly  in 
the  outfield  throughout  the 
entire  game  and  they  were 
concerned  that  the  players 
would  be  unable  to  see  the 
ball  both  in  the  outfield  and 
at  the  plate.  So,  they  decided 
to  try  to  wait  it  out.  After  sev- 
eral minutes,  the  field  umpire 
took  Cattaneo  and 
Holbrook's  head  coach  into 
left  field  and  had  Morrisette 
head  coach  Steve  Maze  hit  a 
handful  of  balls  towards 
them  with  a  fungo  bat.  After 
deducing  that  players  could 
not  locate  the  ball,  the  um- 
pire called  the  game. 

There  was  a  little  contro- 
versy over  whether  the  game 
would  be  called  off  as  offi- 
cial since  it  was  past  the 
mandatory  five  innings  for 
such  a  ruling  to  happen,  or  if 
it  would  be  suspended  and 
both  teams  would  have  to 
finish  the  rest  some  other 
time. 

The  controversy  was  the 
haze.

after  at  least  five  innings  due 

to  rain,  it  is  ended  early  on   In  Memory  Of  Patrick  White 


account  of  the  weather.  But 
the  umpires  were  uncertain 
if  haze  fell  under  such  a  cat- 
egory. After  consulting  the 
chairman  of  District  6  Base- 
ball, the  umpires  ruled  the 
game  official  and  Momsette 
wrapped  up  the  hazy  win. 

"That  was  a  big  game.  We 
needed  that.  We've  got  to 
win  these  games.  These  are 
the  teams  we  got  to  beat  to 
get  into  the  playoffs," 
Cattaneo  said.  "'We  got 
Cohasset,  we  got  Stoughton, 
we  can  beat  Canton.  If  we 
can  beat  those  three  games, 
we'll  make  the  playoffs  - 
that's  the  wav  it  looks  now."

Silent  Movies  At  Crane  Library 


Pianist  Richard  Hughes 
will  provide  the  "mood  mu- 
sic" to  take  the  audience  back 
to  the  silent  nio\ie  era  at  a 
special  show  ing  of  three  clas- 
sic old-time  mo\  ies  on  Thurs- 
day. Jul\  I  y  at  7  p.m.  at  Tho- 
mas Crane  Public  Library, 
40  Washington  Street. 
Quincy. 

Features  for  this  "'Silent 
.Mo\  le  Show"  will  include 
three  short  films  starring 
Charlie  Chaplin  and  Laurel 


PROFESSIONAL 
DIRECTORY 


and  Hardy,  plus  the  190.^ 
classic  "The  Great  Train 
Robber\."  These  films  are 
all  black  and  white  with  no 
sound  tracks  but  the  film  ac- 
tion is  enhanced  by  piano 
back-up. 

Hughes  will  describe  the 
silent  movie  era  of  over  a 
century  ago  and,  also,  pro- 
\ide  examples  of  the  era's 
back-up  music  through  his 
piano  expertise  during  the 
event. 

For  the  past  ten  years, 
Hughes  has  compiled  many 
silent  music  scores  taken 
from  the  ""mood  music"  of 
that  period.  He  recently  re- 
leased a  DVD  of  three  of 
Chaplin's  films  with  the 
onginal  musical  scores  syn- 


chronized to  the  films. 

Hughes  began  playing  the 
piano  at  the  age  of  seven, 
started  with  the  classics  and 
later  mastered  boogie- 
woogie,  ragtime  and  pop.  He 
currently  takes  his  shows  and 
music  to  schools,  commu- 
nity centers,  libraries,  histori- 
cal societies  and  senior  cen- 
ters. 

At  each  stop,  he  finds  that 
audiences  of  all  ages  enjoy 
the  fast-paced  slapstick  style 
of  the  old  Vaudeville  days. 

The  Silent  Movie  Show  is 
iree  and  sponsored  by  the 
Iriends  of  the  Thomas  Crane 
Library.  For  more  informa-

Adams'  legac)  is 
particularly  relevant  as  the 
country  struggles  today, 
while  at  war  w  ith  terrorists, 
to  maintain  itscommitment 
to  equal  justice. 

Following  the 

ceremony,  a  naval  honor 
guard  led  dignitaries  and 
family  members  to  Adams' 
tomb,  which  lies  in  the 
family  crypt  below  the 
church.  Adams  and  his

were  all  lifelong  members 
of  United  First  Parish

Several  speakers  drew 
parallels,  sometimes 

unfavorably,  between  Adams 
and  America's  current 
president  George  W.  Bush. 
Both  were  the  only  sons  of 
presidents  to  serve  as

As  Incentive  To  Spend  Money  Here 

Davis  Proposes  Discount 
'Quincy  Card'  For  Tourists 


Ward  4  Councillor  Jay 
Davis  proposes  that  a  dis- 
count "Quincy  Card"  be  cre- 
ated and  issued  to  attract 
tourists  to  Quincy  busi- 
nesses. 

Local  hotels  would 
present  the  card,  accompa- 
nied by  a  list  of  restaurants 
and  other  businesses  agree- 
ing to  participate  in  the  dis- 
count program. 

The  card  would  be  given 
to  guests  upon  arrival  at  the 
hotels,  urging  them  to  take 
advantage  of  the  special  dis- 
counts being  offered  to  visi- 
tors. 

"Tourism  is  a  very  com- 
petitive business,  and  we 
should  be  doing  everything 
we  can  to  make  sure  people 
staying  in  Quincy  hotels 
spend  their  time  and  money 
in  the  city,"  Davis  said. 

"If  we  offer  visitors  such 
simple  incentives  as  a  free 
appeti/er  with  their  meal  or 


JAY  DAV  IS 

a  discount  on  a  harbor  cruise, 
they  will  stay  locally  and 
support  local  businesses. 
I've  spoken  with  Mark 
Carey,  the  City's  Tourism 
Director,  about  the  'Quincy 
Card"  and  he  thinks  it's  and 
exciting  idea  and  intends  to 
look  into  the  matter." 

Davis  came  up  with  the 
idea  for  the  "Quincy  Card" 
during  a  recent  vacation  with 
his  family  to  the  Pacific 
Northwest. 


"I  actually  spoke  with  two 
people  who  stayed  at  the 
Quincy  Marriott.  One  was 
from  California,  and  he  told 
me  that  he  stayed  at  the 
Marriott  for  six  days,  but  he 
spent  his  time  traveling  to 
other  tourist  destinations  in 
the  area,  including  Concord/ 
Lexington  and  Plymouth. 
Quincy  is  the  City  of  Presi- 
dents' and  enjoys  a  long  and 
proud  history.  We  don't  want 
such  tourists  to  miss  our 
Adams  House  and  other  lo- 
cal tourist  destinations." 

Davis  added:  "When 
tourists  come  to  a  hotel,  they 
iu"e  looking  for  things  to  do 
that  are  cost-effective  and 
convenient....  Tourism  in 
Quincy  has  made  great 
strides  under  the  leadership 
of  Jennifer  Logue,  the  City's 
former  Tourism  Director, 
and  current  Director,  Mark 
Carey.  I  hope  that  the 
'Quincy  Card'  can  be  one 
more  piece  of  the  puzzle." 


Major  Sidewalk 
Repairs  Started 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  DPW  Commissioner 
Steve  O'Donnell  announce 
that  major  repairs  to  side- 
walks are  underway  through- 
out the  city. 

Phelan  appropriated  $2.2 
million  to  repair  sidewalks  as 
part  of  his  "Neighborhoods 
First"  initiative. 

"The  primary  focus  of  our 
efforts  will  be  in  the  repairs 
to  our  streets."  said  Phelan. 
"It  was  overwhelmingly 
clear  that  our  residents  con- 
sider this  effort  a  top  prior- 
ity and  we  have  listened  to 
them  by  appropriating  more 
than  $2  million  lo  upgrade 
our  sidewalks." 

In  addition  to  the  outside 
contract.  DPW  crews  will 


continue  their  repairs  of  city 
sidewalks.  The  residents 
who  need  a  sidewalk  re- 
paired are  asked  to  call  the 
DPW  at  617-376-1959. 

"We  ask  your  patience  as

Koch  Calls  For  Reforms  To  Correct 
Chronic  Traffic  Problems 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  Tuesday  called  for  re- 
forms aimed  at  fixing 
chronic  traffic  problems 
across  the  city  that  he  said 
continue  to  worsen  after 
nearly  two  years  without  a 
traffic  engineer. 

"After  two  years,  the  ad- 
ministration appears  ready  to 
listen  to  the  public  about  the 
need  to  fix  Quincy's  traffic 
mess  by  finally  hiring  a  traf- 
fic engineer,"  Koch  said. 
"That's  a  first  step,  but  we 
also  need  a  full  plan  on  how 
to  make  driving  our  streets 
safer  and  less  frustrating  for 
our  residents.  We  need  lead- 
ership on  this  issue,  and  we 
need  a  plan." 

Koch  expressed  optimism 
that  at  least  some  of  the  city's 
worst  traffic  problems  can  be 
solved  by  using  technology 
that  already  exists.  He  said 
many  of  the  city's  intersec- 
tions are  equipped  with  Ad- 
vanced Traffic  Control  Sys- 
tems programmed  by  com- 
puter to  reduce  idling  at  in- 
tersections and  improve  How 
throughout  the  city. 

"Without  leadership  and 
proper  oversight,  these  sys- 
tems languish.  The  results 
could  not  be  clearer.  That's 
the  incredible  part-we  have 
the  technology  to  fix  some  of 
these  problems  today,"  Koch 
said.  "With  the  right  plan- 
ning, oversight,  and  desire  to 
improve  traffic  conditions, 
we  can  get  these  systems 
working  the  way  they  were 
intended  and  start  fixing  our 
traffic  situation  right  away." 

Koch  said  that  the  traffic 
control  systems  affects  more 


than  100  intersections  in  the 
city,  as  the  systems  are  pro- 
grammed to  connect  and 
synchronize  with  each  other 
to  keep  traffic  moving.  The 
computerized  systems  are 
also  programmed  to  detect 
and  fix  problems  immedi- 
ately, but  Koch  said  that  the 
"city  must  have  the  will"  to 
monitor  the  systems. 

One  intersection  not 
working  properly  can  cause 
a  chain  reaction  and  essen- 
tially a  breakdown  of  the  en- 
tire system,  Koch  said.  But 
when  systems  work  cor- 
rectly, a  similar  chain  reac- 
tion brings  cars  back  to  main 
roads  because  there  is  less 
need  for  people  to  cut 
through  neighborhoods. 

"This  is  what  we  have 
been  talking  about  a  lot,  and 
listening  about  from  our  resi- 
dents: The  need  for  leader- 
ship that  takes  an  active  role 
in  their  day-to-day  lives," 
Koch  said.  "The  open,  re- 
sponsive and  respectful  lead- 
ership we  plan  to  bring  to 
city  hall  will  address  issues 
like  traffic  that  so  clearly  af- 
fect the  quality  of  life  of  our 
residents." 

In  addition  to  fully  utiliz- 
ing the  existing  control  sys- 
tems, Koch  called  for  a  re- 
newed emphasis  on  making 
sure  traffic  markings  on 
streets  and  intersections  are 
clearly  visible. 

"It's  July,  and  the  perfect 
time  of  year  to  repaint  cross- 
walks, lane  markings,  and 
designated  turning  lanes." 
Koch  said.  "When  our  streets 
are  not  properly  marked, 
traffic  only  gets  worse.  We

needs  to  change  immedi-

Koch  also  highlighted  the 
environmental  effects  of  a 
traffic-clogged  city,  noting 
that  idling  cars-and  espe- 
cially trucks-lead  to  in- 
creased emissions  into  the 
air. 

"On  top  of  that,  it  is  gas 
money  that  our  residents 
should  not  have  to  spend," 
Koch  said. 

Koch  said  traffic  condi- 
tions around  the  city  remain 
one  of  the  biggest  issues  for 
residents  he  meets  at  coffee 
hours  and  knocking  doors. 
The  former  Park  Commis- 
sioner urged  Mayor  William 
Phelan  to  hire  a  traffic  engi- 
neer in  February  and  later 
called  for  a  full  plan  to  ad- 
dress dangerous  intersec- 
tions surrounding  North 
Quincy  High  School.

Lady  Bird's  Quincy  Visits 


McINTYRE 


Lady  Bird  Johnson  loved  what  she  saw  at  the  Adams 
Mansion  during  an  otTicial  visit  here  40  years  ago. 
And  came  hack  28  years  later  on  a  private  visit  for  a 
second  look. 

Mrs.  Johnson,  who  died  July  1 1  at  age  94  at  her 
Austin,  Texas  home,  was  the  First  Lady  in  that  first 
visit,  June  9,  1967  and  in  the  midst  of  her  campaign  to 
"Keep  America  Beautiful." 

Accompanying  her  was  Secretary  of  the  Interior 
Stewart  Udall. 

Little  did  she  reali/e  the  hectic-and  somewhat 
humorous  scrambling  she  had  caused  here  earlier  that 
arrival  day. 

She  and  Udall  tlew  up  from  Washington  and  landed 
at  the  South  Wcyiuouth  Naval  Air  Station  to  motorcade 
to  Quincy. 

Mayor  James  Mclntyre,  his  wife.  Sheila,  and  Mrs. 
John  Voipe,  wife  of  the  governor, 
were  there  to  greet  her.  With  them 
was  five-year  old  Elizabeth  Mclntyre, 
who  presented  Mrs.  Johnson  with  a 
bt)uquet  of  roses. 

There  was  no  hint  of  the  hectic 
hour  Mclntyre  had  spent  before  the 
plane  arrived. 

He  has  asked  Jack  Schmock,  who  was  Civil  Defense 
Director  at  the  time  to  help  him  check  out  Lady  Bird's 
route  in  Quincy.  "I  want  to  be  sure  everything  looks 
nice  for  her,"  he  told  Schmock. 

The  motorcade,  coming  from  Weymouth,  along  the 
Southeast  Expressway,  would  turn  onto  Furnace  Brook 
Parkway  and  proceed  to  Adams  Street  to  the  Adams 
Mansion.  Home  to  four  generations  of  the  Adams 
family  and  the  summer  White  House  for  two  presidents. 
Mclntyre  and  Schmock  found  people  standing  along 
Furnace  Brook  Parkway  waiting  to  see  the  First  Lady. 
And,  to  Mclntyre' s  horror,  lining  the  sidewalk  in 
front  of  homes  were  filled  trash  bags  and  barrels.  It  was 
trash  pick-up  day  in  the  area,  a  small  detail  overlooked 
in  the  planning  for  Mrs.  Johnson's  welcome. 

Mclntyre  gasped  at  the  thought  of  the  First  Lady- 
campaigning  to  keep  America  beautiful-looking  out 
from  the  motorcade  at  piled  up  rubbish  as  she  rode  by. 
His  Honor  sprang  into  action.  He  radioed  a  SOS  to 
Public  Works  Commissioner  Jack  Browne.  The  latter 
quickly  pulled  trucks  from  other  routes  and  had  them 
move  in  to  pick  up  trash  in  the  Furnace  Brook  Parkway 
area. 

A  short  w  hile  later,  Mclntyre  and  Schmock,  joined 
by  Executive  Secretary  James  (Pete) 
Ricciuti  decided  to  make  a  second 
inspection  of  the  route.  Just  to  be  sure 
everything  was  all  set. 

The  trash  was  gone.  But  no  hooray ! 
Scattered  along  the  sidewalk  in  front 
of  the  homes  were  the  empty  trash 
barrels. 
And,  then  a  sight  to  behold:  the  mayor  of  Quincy  on 
one  side  of  the  street  and  his  executive  secretary  on  the 
other,  as  Schmock  recalls:  "Hidins  rubbish  barrels 
behind  homes,  shrubs,  parked  automobiles  and  any 
other  hiding  spot  they  could  find." 

Some  of  the  residents  realized  what  was  going  on 
and  got  their  own  trash  containers  out  of  sight. 

Board  To  Hear 
QHS  Site  Appeal 


RICCIUTI 


LADY  BIRD  JOHNSON,  wife  of  President  Lyndon 
Johnson,  nimbly  steps  over  a  hedge  in  the  garden  at  the 
Adams  Mansion  in  1967  as  Secretary  of  the  Interior 
Stewart  Udall  smiles. 

Mclntyre  took  the  time  to  thank  them  before  rushing 
to  the  Naval  Air  Station,  reaching  there  just  before  the 
First  Lady's  plane  landed. 

Mrs.  Johnson  loved  the  roses  little  Elizabeth  had 
presented  her.  And  the  flowers  she  found  in  bloom  in 
the  gardens  at  the  Adams  Mansion. 

Especially  the  Yorkist  Rose  tree  brought  home  from 
Europe  in  1789  by  another  First  Lady,  Abigail  Adams 
who  planted  it...  And  still  blooms  today. 

A  perfect  setting  for  a  First  Lady  campaigning  to 
"Keep  America  Beautiful."  She  enjoyed  herself  so 
much  she  stayed  for  three  hours. 

The  word  trash  was  never  mentioned. 

Mrs.  Johnson's  second  visit  was  a  surprise  quick  one 
in  1995. 

She  just  popped  in  unannounced  with  her 
granddaughter,  Claudia  Nugent,  who  was  on  her  way  to 
a  college  in  New  England. 

The  late  Paul  Harold  met  Mrs.  Johnson  in  1998  at  a 
Democrat  fundraiser  on  Cape  Cod. 

She  fondly  recalled  her  two  visits 
here. 

"She  told  me  she  was  very 
impressed  with  the  Adams  Mansion," 
Harold  said.  "She  liked  the  way  it  was 
maintained  by  the  National  Park 
Service." 

The  warm  lived-in  look-rather  than  a  cool  museum- 
like look  had  impressed  her  on  both  visits. 

"She  said  she  was  interested  in  the  preservation  and 
interpretive  work  at  the  mansion  and  that  she  was 
planning  on  setting  up  a  similar  house  museum  at  the 
family  farm  in  Texas."  (She  did  say  farm-not  ranch, 
according  to  Harold.) 

During  her  husband  Lyndon  Johnson's  presidency, 
she  spent  much  of  her  time  trying  to  "Keep  America 
Beautiful."  She  was  one  of  the  most  popular  First 
Ladies. 

The  flower  gardens  and  that  lived-in  look-rather 
than  the  usual  cold  museum-like  look  at  the  Adams 
Mansion  had  truly  impressed  her.

tion of  the  new  Quincy  High 
School. 


The  petition  by  environ-

ruling  on  the  Faxon  Field  site 
is  still  under  litigation. 


Podiatrist  Dr.  Jordana 
Szpiro  will  be  available  to

THIS  IS  A  1924  real  photo  postcard  view  of  Newport 
Avenue  looking  north  from  Beale  Street  in  Wollaston. 
At  the  time  the  William  Hurlbert  Drug  Store  was  on 
the  left.  This  and  the  other  shops  down  the  street 
changed  hands  dozens  of  times  over  the  years  as  immi- 
I  grant  entrepreneurs  sought  their  path  to  the  American 
I  dream.  And  it  continues  today,  every  time  you  drive 


down  this  street  there  seems  to  be  a  new  business 
opened.  On  the  right  are  the  railroad  tracks  Tirst  cut 
through  here  in  1845.  The  Wollaston  Station  out  of  view 
behind  the  trees  continues  to  be  the  magnet  for  the 
shops.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

Cessation  Services  Needed 
For  MassHealth  Subscribers 


As  pan  of  the  health  care 
retbrni  bill  last  year,  free  or 
low-cost  tobacco  cessation 
services  were  offered  to 
Medicaid  (MassHealth)  sub- 
scribers for  a  two-year  pe- 
riod. 

As  this  population  has  a 
smoking  rate  of  409^ -double 
that  of  privately  insured  citi- 
zens-these  services  are  criti- 
cal. On  July  1 1.  there  was  a 
State  House  hearing  for  a  bill 


Senator  Morrissey  and 
Rep.  Mariano: 

It  was  always  about  the 
right  to  vote.  Thai's  all!  Let's 
review  recent  history. 

If  gay  marriage  was  so 
important  why  did  the  legis- 
lature pass  the  buck,  post- 
pone and  in  every  way  p(>s- 
sible  put  if  off?  After  ap- 
proximately a  decade  the 
State  Supreme  Court  got  in- 
\ol\'ed.  You  knev\  there 
would  eventually  be  a  ruling 
and  still  you  did  nothing. 
Passing  laws  is  your  job.  If 
the  court  does  it  why  are  we 
paying  you? 

The  court  redefined  the 
meaning  of  marriage.  That  is 
not  their  job.  They  do  not 
have  the  authority  to  estab- 
lish special  rights.  Everyone 
had  the  same  options  when 
it  came  to  marriage.  That  is 
equal  rights. 

The  people  were  sick  of 
you  avoiding  the  issue  so  a 
petition  was  started.  This  is 
not  something  they  put  to- 
gether in  a  few  days  and  pre- 
sented to  the  legislature.  It 
took  a  lot  of  money  and  co- 
ordination. Over  170,000 


to  make  these  services  per- 
manent. 

As  a  health  care  provider 
at  Manet  Community  Health 
Center  in  Quincy,  I  know  my 
patients  need  help  to  quit 
smoking.  I  currently  see  a 
woman  with  three  children 
and  twin  infants. 

She  tries  so  hard  to  do  the 
right  thing  for  her  babies,  but 
she  is  alone,  and  previously 
could  not  afford  help  to  quit. 


With  the  current  benefit,  she 
is  receiving  treatment,  and  it 
looks  like  she  will  be  suc- 
cessful in  providing  her  fam- 
ily with  a  healthier  life. 

If  we  deny  MassHealth 
subscribers  cessation  ben- 
efits, we  not  only  ignore  the 
higher  smoking  rate  among 
those  of  lower-income,  but 
also  send  the  message  that 
they  do  not  deserve  the  most 
successful  quit  method  ol' 


medication  and  counseling, 
which  the  privately  insured 
can  access. 

1  urge  lawmakers  to  help- 
and  send  the  right  message- 
by  supporting  permanent 
MassHealth  coverage  of  to- 
bacco cessation.

Boston  Boy  Choir  Tours 
Washington,  D.C.  And  Baltimore 


The  students  of  the  Bos- 
ton Archdioeesan  Choir 
School,  known  as  the  "Bos- 
ton Boy  Choir",  recently 
traveled  to  Baltimore  and 
Washington  D.C.  for  a  week

sang  at  Sunday  liturgy  at  the 
Basilica  of  the  National 
Shrine  of  the  Immaculate 
Conception. 

One  of  the  highlights  of 


their  trip  was  the  opportunity 
to  sing  the  National  Anthem 
at  RFK  stadium  for  a  base- 
ball game  between  the 
Washington  Nationals  and 
the  Baltimore  Orioles.  In 
addition  to  their  perfor- 
mances, they  visited  the  mu- 
seums of  the  Smithsonian 
Institution,  the  Holocaust 
Museum,  and  various  me- 
morials. 

The  Boston  Archdiocesan 
Choir  School,  sponsored  by 
St.  Paul  Church  in  Cam- 
bridge, is  a  musically  inten- 
sive, academically  rigorous. 
Catholic  day  school  for  boys 


in  grades  five  through  eight. 
The  students  come  from 
many  cities  and  towns  in  the 
Boston  area  to  attend  the 
school. 

Students  from  Quincy 
are: 

Justin  Au,  Sean  Patrick 
Hannon,  Steven  Huynh,  Pe- 
ter Jensen,  Timothy  Keenan,

Logue  Reports  Opposition 
To  Concourse  Growing 


Denis  Tardo  Named  Lion  Of  The  Year 


Opposition  to  the  Quincy 
Center  Concourse  is  grow- 
ing, with  hundreds  of  Quincy 
residents,  workers,  business 
owners  and  customers  sign- 
ing a  petition  to  stop  the 
project,  according  to  Jenni- 
fer McCauley  Logue. 

Logue,  a  candidate  for 
councillor  at-large  and  the 
author  of  the  petition,  urges 
Quincy  residents  who  op- 
pose the  four-lane  roadway 
that  will  bisect  Quincy  Cen- 
ter to  sign  the  petition,  which 
is  posted  online  at  http:// 
www.PetitionOnline.com/ 
quincyma/petition.html. 

Those  who  wish  to  sign 
the  petition  but  do  not  have 
Internet  access  may  sign  the 
printed  copy  available  at  the 
Little  Q  Hot  Pot  restaurant, 
1585  Hancock  St.,  Quincy 
Center.  The  restaurant  also 
will  offer  public  access  to  the 
online  petition  for  those  who 
wish  to  sign  the  electronic 
version  of  the  petition. 

The  Little  Q,  a  Mongolian 
restaurant  that  draws  patrons 
from  throughout  the  Greater 
Boston  area,  is  one  of  the 
many  businesses  scheduled 
to  be  demolished  to  make 
way  for  the  Concourse. 

"It  simply  makes  no  sense 
for  a  city  that  wishes  to  revi- 
talize its  downtown  to  de- 
molish thriving  businesses 
like  Little  Q  while  leaving 
vacant  lots  and  eyesores  un- 
touched," Logue  said.  "I  urge 


all  concerned  Quincy  resi- 
dents, workers,  business 
owners  and  patrons  to  take  a 
few  moments  to  sign  the  pe- 
tition before  the  city  begins 
demolishing  other  popular 
businesses  for  this  unneces- 
sary project." 

The  Stop  the  Quincy  Cen- 
ter Concourse!  petition 
reads: 

"On  June  19,  2007,  the 
City  of  Quincy,  Massachu- 
setts began  demolishing 
downtown  businesses  to 
make  way  for  the  Quincy 
Center  Concourse.  This 
multi-million  dollar,  four- 
lane  roadway  straight 
through  Quincy  Center  will 
eliminate  parking,  destroy  or 
displace  dozens  of  busi- 
nesses and  make  the  down- 
town area  less  pedestrian 
friendly. 

"We,  the  undersigned 
residents,  taxpayers,  busi- 
ness owners  and  Quincy 
business  patrons  strongly 
oppose  this  expensive  and 
unnecessary  roadway.  We 
urge  Mayor  Phelan  and  the 
Quincy  City  Council  to  im- 
mediately halt  any  further 
land  takings  or  demolitions, 
and  to  abandon  this  ill-con- 
ceived plan  before  irrepa- 
rable harm  is  done  to  down- 
town Quincy." 

In  pushing  the  Concourse 
plan,  Logue  said,  city  offi- 
cials have  given  citizens  the 
impression  that  the  35-year 


old  urban  renewal  plan  is  the 
only  way  to  revitalize  down- 
town Quincy. 

"Nothing  could  be  further 
from  the  truth,"  Logue  said. 
"No  one  disputes  that  eco- 
nomic re\  italization  is 
needed  in  downtown  Quincy. 
The  question  is  whether  this 
specific  plan  is  the  best  way 
to  achieve  that  revitalization. 
And  a  simple  cost-benefit 
analysis  shows  that  the  Con- 
course plan-which  will 
eliminate  parking,  destroy 
tax-paying  businesses  and 
make  Hancock  Street  less 
pedestrian-friendly-is  the 
wrong  way  to  go  about  it." 

If  elected,  Logue  said,  she 
would  support  exploring  par- 
ticipation in  the  National 
Trust  for  Historic 
Preservation's  Main  Streets 
program. 

"The  Main  Streets  pro- 
gram has  helped  communi- 
ties across  America  revital- 
ize their  downtowns- without 
bulldozing  entire  city  blocks 
or  constructing  unnecessary, 
multi-million  dollar  roads," 
Logue  said. 

"In  developing  a  true  re- 
vitalization plan,  an  historic 
city  like  Quincy  should  look 
to  successful  models  with 
proven  track  records  like  the 
Main  Streets  program-not 
simply  pull  a  35-year  old 
plan  off  the  shelf,  dust  off  the 
cobwebs  and  call  it 
'progress'." 


Denis  Tardo  has  been 
named  Lion  of  the  Year  for 
Massachusetts  Lions  District 
33K. 

Tardo,  first  vice  president 
of  the  Quincy  Lions  Club.

program,  a  special  initiative 
that  seeks  to  engage  new  Li- 
ons Club  members  through 
active  involvement  in  the 
club's  local  and  district

he  played  a  key  role  in  help- 


OKNIS  r ARDO 

ing  to  organize  the  Lions 
Club  International  Conven- 
tion, which  drew  thousands 
of  Lions  from  around  the 
world  to  Boston.

the  Quincy  Lions  Club  raises 
thousands  of  dollars  each 
year  for  eye  research,  dona- 
tions to  help  blind  or  visu- 
ally impaired  residents, 
scholarships  for  local  high 
school  seniors  and  other 
worthwhile  community 
projects.

FIRE    SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons

A  Summer  Review 


There's  plenty  of  summer 
lell.  while  here's  ;i  quick  re- 
view on  keeping  sale 
throughout  the  remaining 
summer  clays  and  nights. 

When  I  begin  cuttmg  our 
lawn,  I  make  certain  that 
there's  enough  fuel  within 
the  tank  to  get  the  job  done. 
I  want  to  avoid  lueling  the 
lawnmower  once  it's  hot 
from  use. 

1  recommend  you  do  so  as 
well  where  gasoline  vap«)rs 
are  highly  volatile  and  llam- 
mable.  We've  grown  so  ac- 
customed to  its  use;  let's  re- 
member it  still  must  be  used

with  caution  and  respect. 

Can  I  say  anything  more 
than  I  have  in  the  past  about 
grills'  When  in  use,  don't 
leave  them  unattended.  II 
using  propane,  check  to 
make  certain  that  the  hoses 
and  connections  are  tight  and 
secure. 

it  is  at  the  connections 
and  this  hose  where  tires  can 
typically  start  outside  the 
containment  ot  the  grill  it- 
sell.  Outdoor  storage  can 
raise  havoc  with  both,  so 
check  them  periodically. 

Any  grill  should  be  used 
at  ground  level,  at  least  ten 
feet  away  from  buildings  and 
other  combustibles.  II  using 
charcoal,  adding  lighter  lluid 
to  an  existing  tire  can  invite 
disaster. 

I'lames  may  travel  up  the 
stream  ol  lighter  lluid,  result- 
ing in  serious  burns.  Lastly, 
be  mindful  t)f  children  get- 
ting too  close  to  a  hot  grill. 
Having  tun  in  the  yard,  they 
can  be  oblivious  to  the  dan- 
ger a  hot  grill  poses. 

Of  course  open  outside 
burning  is  not  allowed  within 
Quincy.  Considering  the 
close  proximity  of  houses  to 
each  other,  the  nuisance  fac- 
tor of  smoke  and  the  per- 


ceived threat  of  fire  to  abut- 
ters, it  is  in  my  opinion,  a 
sound  policy.  The  heat  and 
the  fire  potential  of  dried 
vegetation  during  the  sum- 
mer months  alone  are  argu- 
ments for  its  prohibition. 

If  traveling,  consider  fire 
safety  when  checking  into  a 
hotel,  motel  or  guesthouse. 
Take  the  time  to  familiari/e 
yourself  with  the  layout  of 
the  building,  exit  locations 
and  alternate  means  of  es- 
caping the  building  should 
there  be  an  emergency. 

1  cringe  when  I  go  to  a 
vacation  setting  and  see 
some  of  these  old 
guesthouses  still  in  use.  Re- 
member that  windows  can  be 
used  as  emergency  exits, 
while  access  to  roofs  can 
make  their  use  more  inviting 
if  the  need  arises.  Of  course, 
never  use  elevators  in  case  of 
fire. 

Respect  the  water,  I  love 
it,  but  if  1  go  kayaking  on  the 
most  serene  pond  or  lake,  I'll 
stop  at  the  beginning  and  re- 
mind myself  that  as  beauti- 
ful as  it  is,  it  can  be  very  un- 
forgiving if  not  respected. 
Relax  with  caution  and  re- 
spect the  water. 

Have  a  great  summer!

Liang  Decides  To  Run 
For  Ward  6  Seat 


Jimmy  Liang,  the  restau- 
rateur who  took  out  nomina- 
tion papers  for  a  City  Coun- 
cil at-large  seat  in  May.  has 
decided  to  run  for  the  Ward 
6  seat  instead. 

Liang,  the  first  Asian- 
American  to  run  for  the  City 
Council  in  200  L  said  the 
theme  of  his  Ward  6  cam- 
paign this  year  will  be  "unity 
and  communicati 

"With  the  ever-growing 
population  becoming  more 
and  more  diverse,  communi- 
cations and  unity  are 
needed,"  he  said  in  his  an- 
nouncement. 

"Even  though  no  local 
politician  is  touching  upon 
those  two  great  concerns,  it 
does  not  mean  that  we  as  a 
city  do  not  have  to  deal  with 
them. 

"We  need  to  address  is- 
sues with  understanding  and 
respect  for  one  another  and 
deal  with  them  before  it 
reaches  a  point  where  we 
may  not  be  able  to  handle 
them." 

Liang,  who  lives  on 
French  Street  in  North 
Quincy  and  owns  Quincy 
restaurants,  proposed  an 
eight  point  plan  to  bring 
about  that  unity. 

•  Using  my  Council  sal- 
ary I  will  establish  and  inde- 
pendent City  Council  office 
outside  of  City  Hall  to  make 
myself  more  accessible  and

cultures  to  feel  comfortable 
in  dealing  with  the  city.

Jimmy  Liang  is  the  pro- 
totype American  success 
story,  the  immigrant  family 
that  came  to  the  United 
States  in  search  of  a  better 
life  and  the  opportunity  to 
succeed. 

Building  on  strong  fam- 
ily values  and  a  Quincy  Pub- 
lic Schools  education,  he 
opened  a  Japanese  restaurant 
in  Wollaston  and  has  since 
expanded  to  two  restaurants 
in  Quincy  Center  and  North 
Quincy.  A  third  will  open 
later  this  year. 

Liang  is  a  successful 
businessperson  who  puts  his 
livelihood  on  the  line  day  in 
and  day  out,  meets  a  payroll 
every  week  and  knows  that 
success  comes  from  hard 
work  and  the  ability  to  de- 
liver value  to  his  customers. 

He  also  knows  that  a  city 
must  deliver  valuable  ser- 
vices to  its  people  in  both 
good  and  bad  times. 

"I  have  a  vision  for  the 
city  of  Quincy,"  he  said. 

"I  hope  that  all  the  people 
of  the  city  will  work  together 
for  a  more  peaceful  and  safe 
place  where  it  is  ideal  to 
raise  families. 

"I  want  to  go  back  to  the 
days  where  1  can  walk  down 
a  street  and  see  neighbors 
greet  one  another. 

"There  will  always  be 
room  for  improvement,  al- 
ways room  to  make  a  city 
better  and  more  economi- 
cally viable,  thriving,  clean 
and  safe."

Amelia  Earhart's  110th 
Birthday  Celebration 
At  Beechwood  Center 


{Cont'd  From  Page  3} 
July  24,  1897,  Earhart  not 
only  paved  the  way  for  other 
aviators,  but,  by  her  example, 
she  broke  new  ground  for 
women. 

Earhart  was  presumed 
dead  after  her  plane  vanished 
during  in  1937  during  her 
attempted  flight  around  the 
world.  She  was  40  years  old 
when  she  died  but  she  had 
already  broken  many  barriers 
for  women  early  in  the  20th 
century. 

She  had  a  multi- 
dimensional career  well 
before  the  Suffrage 
Movement  allowed  women 
the  right  to  vote.  She  was  a 
social  worker  in  Boston,  a 
teacher,   a  truck  driver. 


journalist,  photographer,  file 
clerk  and  nurse's  aide. 

"Courage  is  the  price  that 
life  exacts  for  granting 
peace,"  Earhart  said  once, 
adding,  "The  soul  that  knows 
it  not,  knows  no  release." 

In  aviation,  she  was  the 
first  in  many  areas.  In  1928. 
she  was  the  first  woman  to 
cross  the  Atlantic  by  air  as  a 
passenger;  in  1 932,  the  first 
woman  to  fly  a  plane  solo 
across  the  Atlantic;  In  1935, 
she  became  the  first  person 
to  tly  non-stop  across  the 
Pacific  Ocean. 

As  a  woman  at  that  time, 
she  had  to  win  over  some 
critics,  such  as  those  who 
found  her  aviator's  khakis 
and    high    boots    "...not 


appropriate  attire  for  a 
lady...." 

Additional  information 
about  Earhart  is  available 
through  the  Aviation  History 
Information  Center  at 
Beechwood. 

The  center  collects  all 
types  of  history  on  early 
aviators,  such  as  the 
recollections  of  Freda 
Hadayia.  Hadayia 

remembered  Earhart  as  a 
warm  caring  social  worker  at 
Boston  Dennison  House. 
Earhart  was  known  to  bring 
some  of  the  students  to  dinner 
at  her  sister's  house  in 
Medford. 

All  Aviation  History 
meetings  are  open  to  the 
public.

programming.  Included  were 
such  major  local  events  as 
Flag  Day  and  the  city's 
parades,  high  school  sports 
coverage  and  school  and  city 
concerts.

mutinied  on  the  slave  ship 
Armistad.  Rev.  Bennett  is 
Minister  at  United  First 
Parish  Church. 

In  the  Armistad  case,  the 
Africans  sought  and  won 
justice  and  freedom  only  after 
Adams  fought  and  won  the 
legal  case  in  the  United  State 
Supreme  Court. 

Through  that  historic  case, 
Adams  established  forever 
the  principle  of  habeas 
corpus,  which  protects  all 
persons,  regardless  oi  their 
standing,  nationality,  or 
history,  from  unlawful 
restraint  or  imprisonment. 

Senator  Michael 


Morrissey  noted  that  Adams 
was  not  afraid  to  take  on 
unpopular  causes  while 
Mayor  William  Phelan 
observed  that  Adams  was 
against  slavery,  "ahead  of  his 
time.  May  his  leadership  be 
an  (example)  for  all  who 
choose  public  service." 

Navy  Lt.  Ct)mmander 
Raymond  Hurd  led  the 
Pledge  of  Allegiance  and  Rev 
Bennett,  provided  the 
opening  and  closing  prayers. 
Kirtland  Swit/,er.  church

Recent  Scam 
In  Quincy 

Officer  Kristen  Bowes  recently  investigated  an  inci- 
dent involving  a  scam  of  a  Quincy  resident. 

The  victim  said  she  received  a  letter  stating  she  was 
the  winner  of  $150,000  and  she  needed  to  call  the  en- 
closed telephone  number  to  access  her  winnings.  She 
made  the  call  and  spoke  to  a  woman,  who  instructed  her 
to  send  a  money  order  of 
$2,000  to  an  address  in  Hope, 
British  Columbia. 

The  victim  purchased  a 
money  order  at  Wal-Mart 
and  sent  it.  A  few  days  later, 
the  victim  received  a  call 
from  the  same  female,  who 
said  the  taxes  were  underes- 
timated and  she  would  have 
to  send  an  additional  $  1 ,000. 
The  victim  returned  to 
Wal-Mart  and  sent  off  an- 
other check  to  the  same  address.  A  few  days  later,  the 
victim  received  a  check  in  the  mail  from  a  company  for 
$4,990.15  with  a  letter  indicating  she  would  receive  a 
second  check  with  the  remainder  of  her  winnings. 

The  victim  deposited  the  check  into  her  account,  but 
soon  learned  the  check  was  bogus.  This  is  way  banks  tell 
you  that  they  are  putting  a  hold  on  your  account  for  five 
days.  Sadly,  the  victim  is  out  $3,000. 

The  most  surprising  aspect  of  this  incident  -  usually 
the  victims  are  senior  citizens,  but  in  this  case,  she  was 
18  years  old.  Simple  questions  have  to  be  asked  to  avoid 
being  victimized. 

Did  I  enter  the  "multi-state"  lottery?  Did  I  buy  a  ticket? 
In  this  case,  did  I  put  my  name  on  a  lottery  ticket?  Have 
you  ever  played  your  name  on  a  lottery  ticket  and  sub- 
mitted it  anywhere?  If  you  didn't  enter,  how  can  you  win? 
A  simple  check  of  the  telephone  number  listed  would 
have  been  an  easy  way  to  determine  that  this  was  a  scam. 
The  customer  service  number  posted  on  the  letter  has  "toll 
free"  next  to  it,  but  the  "778"  exchange  comes  from  Brit- 
ish Company,  Canada,  were  many  of  these  scams  seem 
to  be  coming  from. 

For  many,  the  internet  is  a  great  way  to  detect  scams 
and  verify  any  company  involved.  Remember,  as  the  old 
saying  goes,  if  it  is  too  good  to  be  true,  it  probably  isn't.

have  received  from  teachers, 
parents  and  business  leaders 
have  helped  me  make  to  de- 
cision to  run  again,"  she  said. 

""I  bring  experience,  fi- 
nancial knowledge  and  a 
proven  record  as  a  leader. 

"As  a  parent  of  children 
who  graduated  from  the 
Quincy  Public  Schools,  a 
home  owner  and  a  business 
owner  in  our  city,  combined 
with  my  many  years  in  com- 
munity service,  1  believe  1 
have  a  unique  understanding 
of  the  needs  of  Quincy. 

"We  need  someone  who 
can  work  with  the  teachers 
and  the  School  Committee  to 
repair  the  once  excellent  re- 
lationship and  move  forward 
to  address  today's  significant 
issues,  such  as  the  building 
of  a  new  Quincy  High 
School  and  what  to  do  about 
Central  and  Sterling  Middle 
Schools. 

"I  feel  I  could  be  that  per- 
son. I  am  asking  the  voters 
to  once  again  give  mc  the 
opportunity  to  serve  them."

By  Sam  an  th  a  Mazzotta 


Bachelor  Can't 

Keep  His 
Bathroom  Clean 

Q,  When  my  mom 
•  came  to  visit  my 
apartment  last  week,  she 
.said  she  was  appalled  at 
the  state  of  the  bathroom.  1 
admit  it's  a  little  grungy, 
but  I  don't  have  the  time  to 
scrub  it  from  top  to  bottom 
every  week.  Is  there  a  fast 
way  to  clean  it  .so  it  passes 
muster  the  next  time  my 
mom  visits  unannounced? 
—  Kyle  R.,  Atlanta 

A,  Yes,  there  is  a  fast 
•  way,  hut  it's  going  to 
take  an  initial  investment  ol 
time  iuul  then  a  minor  devo 
tion  to  consistency.  If  you 
can  meet  this  challenge, 
however,  you'll  never  have  a 
grungy  bathrtHini  again  — 
iind  the  rest  of  the  apartment 
may  improve,  too.  Plus, 
being  able  to  clean  up  after 
yourself  is  extremely  attrac- 
tive to  the  ladies.  Believe 
me. 

Here's  what  you  have  to 
do: 

Dedutter:  Remove  old 
magazines,  empty  the  trash 
can,  move  the  laundry  ham- 
per out  (temporarily,  at 
least),  throw  out  old  or 
unu.sed  lotions,  creams,  gels 
and  other  accessories,  and 
clean  out  the  medicine  cabi- 
net. 

— Prep  for  the  first  clean- 
ing: Put  all  the  towels  into 
the  laundry.  Place  all  coun- 
tertop  items  into  a  box  or 
basket  and  take  out  of  the 
room  for  now.  Same  with 


shower  items.  Take  down  the 
shower  curtain;  if  the  liner  is 
very  dirty  or  moldy,  throw  it 
out  and  purchase  a  new  one. 
—  Do   a   "big"   cleaning: 
.Starting  from  the  top  down, 
clean  cobwebs  from  the  ceil- 
ing   with    a    broom.    Wipe 
down  painted  wall  surfaces 
with  a  cloth  and  mild  .soap 
and  water  (pay  attention  to 
the  ba.seboards).  Clean  bath 
tile  with  a  mold-fighting  tile 
cleaner  and  rin.se.  Scnib  the 
toilet.  Wipe  down  the  out- 
side of  the  toilet  with  a  di.sin- 
fectmg    cleaner     and     hot 
water.  Clean  the  sink,  coun- 
tertops,    towel    racks    and 
bathtub,    and    rin.se    clean, 
lastly,  sweep  the  floor,  then 
wet -mop   with   disinfecting 
cleaner  and  hot  water,  rinse 
and  let  dry. 

-Maintain:  Set  aside  ju.st 
\^  minutes  every  week  to 
clean  the  bathroom.  Declut- 
ter  by  placing  all  counter 
Items  into  a  box.  Then  just 
wipe  down  the  counters, 
sink  and  tub;  .scrub  the  toilet, 
and  clean  the  medicine  cabi- 
net mirror.  Spread  out  the 
shower  curtain  liner  and 
spray  with  a  disinfecting 
cleaner  or  a  mold-fighting 
cleaner,  let  sit  while  you 
sweep  the  floor,  and  then 
rinse  off.  Empty  the  trash, 
and  you're  done.

July  'Hurricane  Preparedness  Month 


(lov.  Deval  Patrick  has 
proclaimed  July  Hurricane 
Preparedness  Month'  in 
Massachusetts  and  the  stale's 
emergency  inanagetnent 
agency  (Ml.MA)  has 
prepared  tips  loi  residents' 
readiness. 

"I'^veiy  home  and  business 
should  have  a  basic  supply 
kit  that  could  be  used  for  any 
emergency,"  warns  MHMA 
Acting  Director  Ken 
McHride. 

McBride  outlined  st)nie  ot 
the  necessities,  which  include 
a  poitable  radio,  tiashlight, 
ext6ra  batteries  and  a  lull 
supply  of  non-perishable 
food  and  water. 


In  addition,  McBride  said, 
"Every  family  should 
develop  a  'Family 
communication  Plan"  to  help 
ensure  that  everyone  is  safe. 
You  should  call  your  local 
authorities  and  learn  about 
potential  evacuation  routes 
and  the  location  of 
emergency  shelters  in  your 
community. 

"It  is  important  to 
familiarize  yourself  with 
your  Community's 

limergency  Plans  before  an 
emergency  occurs,"  said 
McBride. 

MEMA  recommends 
dozens  of  items  be  placed  in 
the    Hurricane    Disaster 


Supply  Kit.  There  are  22 
categories  ranging  from 
canned  goods,  a  manual  can 
opener,  pet  food,  water, 
purification  tablets,  infant 
care  items,  and  a  battery 
operated  timepiece  to 
personal  health  items, 
medicines  and  tools. 

For  the  'Family 
Emergency  Communication 
Plan,'  residents  are 
encouraged  to  designate  an 
out-of-state  relative  or  friend 
to  serve  as  the  family  contact. 
After  a  disaster,  it  is  often 
easier  to  call  long  distance 
than  locally. 

It  is  important  that  every 
family  member  knows  the 


name,  address  and  telephone 
numberofthe  contact  person. 

The  communications  plan 
is  needed  as  family  members 
may  he  separated  from  one 
another  during  an 
emergency.  For  example, 
adults  may  be  working  or 
traveling  while  children  are 
at  school,  camp  or  a  friend's 
home. 

Once  communication  is 
set  up,  the  family  can  develop 
a  plan  for  getting  safely  back 
together.

Consider  Materials,  Maintenance  When  Building  A  Deck 


(NAPS )  -  As  deck  season 
kicks  in,  many  Americans  are 
thinking  about  building  a  new 
deck  or  sprucing  up  and  old 
one. 

If  you  are  building, 
consider  the  type  of  deck  and 
materials  that  will  best  suit 
yom  needs  before  heading 
off  to  the  local  home- 
improvement  center. 
Everyone  knows  about  wood 
decks,  but  more  and  more 
consumers  these  days  are 
choosing  composite 

materials  for  their  aesthetic 
value,  low  maintenance  and 
eco-fricndly  reputation. 

The  \  alue  of  Composites 

It's  fun  to  think  about 


color  and  other  aesthetic 
issues,  but  don't  forget  about 
maintenance. 

Proper  maintenance  of  a 
wood  deck  means 
waterproofing  every  six 
months  and  staining  the  deck 
once  a  year  to  inaintain  the 
color  and  prevent  fading.  And 
even  before  you  get  to  the 
staining  phase,  you  must 
clean  the  deck  with  chemicals 
and  a  pressure  washer. 
Sanding  may  also  be 
necessary  to  achieve  a 
smooth  finish.  In  contrast, 
composite  decks  are  resistant 
to  cracking,  warping  and 
splintering.  They  do  not  need 
to  be  stained  or  waterproofed. 

Composite   decks   are

made  from  a  variety  of 
materials.  For  example.  LP 
Weather-Best,  which  is 
available  in  six  different 
nature-inspired  colors,  is 
made  from  wood  flour  mixed 
with  high-density 

polyethylene  plastic  and  then 
finished    with    a    wood- 
textured  grain  to  provide  the 
look  and  feel  of  wood. 
Cost 

In  addition  to 
maintenance,  cost  is  another 
important  consideration. 
Wood  decking  materials 
range  from  inexpensive  cuts 
of  lumber  to  long-lasting 
woods  such  as  redwood  or 
cedar.  Redwood  and 
untreated  cedar  have  the 
advantage  oi  being  resistant 
to  insects  and  rot.  but  they 
aren't  impervious  and  still 
require  the  regular 
maintenance  associated  with 
all  wood  decking  products. 

Wood  prices  are  generally 
lower  than  composite 
materials,  but  you  need  to 
factor  in  the  extra  expense 
and  time  associated  with 
maintaining  and  repairing 


wood  decks  for  an  accurate 
cost  comparison.  While  the 
initial  price  is  higher  with 
composite  materials,  you  can 
actually  save  money  over 
time  through  reduced 
maintenance. 

Maintenance  Tips 
Once  you've  installed 
your  new  composite  wood 
deck,  keeping  it  looking  clean 
and  beautiful  is  easy: 

•  Wash  down  the  deck 
with  a  garden  hose  on  a 
regular  basis.  Pollutants  you 
may  not  see-pollen,  dust,  dirt 
and  other  airborne  particles- 
will  be  washed  away  with 
regular  spraying. 

•  Scrub  off  built-up  dust 
and  dirt  with  a  common  deck 
cleaner. 

•  Deal  with  stains  quickly. 
Don' t  allow  them  to  penetrate 
the  deck's  surface  or  bake 
under  the  sun. 

•  Clean  grease  or  oil  stains 
with  any  common  household 
degrea.ser.  Keep  a  splatter 
guard  under  your  barbecue 
grill.  Visit  w  ww.lpcorp.com/

What  Isn't  Covered  By 
Homeowners  Insurance? 


INTS  FOR  HOMEOWNERS, 


(NAPS)  -  Many  U.S. 
homeowners  mistakenly 
believe  that  standard 
homeowners  insurance 
protects  them  form  a  wide 
array  of  perils,  according  to 
the  National  Association  of 
Insurance  Commissioners 
(NAIC).  In  fact,  typical 
property  and  liability  policies 
do  not  cover  home  damage 
from  floods,  earthquakes, 
water  line  breaks,  termites, 
mold  and  several  other 
disasters. 

A  high  percentage  of 
homeowners  incorrectly 
think  flood  damages  would 
be  covered  by  a  standard 
property  and  liability  pohcy, 
despite  extensive  media 
coverage  on  Hurricane 
Katrina  victims,  whose 
claims  were  denied  because 
they  lacked  flood  insurance. 

According  to  the  NAIC, 
flood  insurance  policies  are 
available  from  the  federal 
government's  National  Flood 
Insurance  Program  (NFIP) 
and  are  often  sold  by  agents 
who  sell  homeowners 
policies. 

Another  common 

misconception  relates  to 
insurance  payments  based  on 
actual  cash  value   versus 


replacement  cost.  Actual  cash 
value  is  the  amount  it  would 
take  to  repair  or  replace 
damage  to  a  home  and  its 
contents  after  depreciation. 
Replacement  cost  is  the 
amount  it  would  take  to 
replace  or  rebuild  a  home  or 
repair  damages  with 
materials  of  similar  kind  and 
quality,  without  deducting  for 
depreciation. 

To  help  homeowners 
better  understand  insurance 
issues;  the  NAIC  provides 
extensive  information  on  its 
consumer  education  Web 
site.  Insure  U 

(www.InsureUonline.com). 
Insurance  Tips 
For  Homeowners 

Consider  the  following 
when  reviewing  your 
homeowner's  insurance 
policy: 

•  Add  insurance  coverage 
as  you  enhance  the  value  of 
your  home  and  acquire 
expensive  possessions,  such 
as  furniture,  computers, 
stereos  and  televisions. 

•  Alert  your  insurance 
company  when  making  any 
major  home  improvements- 
usually  anything  more  than 
$5,000.  Also,  update  your 
homeowner's    insurance 


Dollars 
and  $en$e 

by  David  Uffington 


Get  Your  Home 
Ready  to  Sell 

The  home-.selling  sea.son  is 
halfway  over  for  the  year, 
and  far  too  many  houses  are 
sitting  unsold.  Beat  the  com- 
petition by  getting  your 
home  in  shape  before  you 
even  put  it  on  the  market. 

•  Have  your  own  property 
insjjection  done  before  you 
put  your  home  up  for  sale. 
This  gives  you  a  repair 
checklist  and  s.ives  you  from 
having  to  make  costly  last- 
minute  repairs  (or  renegoti- 
ate the  price  of  the  home)  if 
the  buyer  makes  them  part  of 
the  contract. 

•  Hire  a  weekly  lawn  ser- 
vice until  your  home  is  sold. 
Aim  for  a  manicured  yard, 
trimmed  hedges  and  color- 
ful flowers  each  and  every 
day. 

•  Hold  a  garage  sale  or  rent 
a  storage  unit  to  clear  out  the 
clutter.  The  idea  is  to  open 
up  the  space  and  make  the 
rooms  and  closets  look  as 
big  as  jxtssible.  This  goes  for 
the  garage  a.s  well.  Unless 
the  garage  is  already  well- 
organized  with  shelves  and 
cabinets,  clear  out  the 
excess. 

•  If  it  makes  noise,  fix  it. 
Stair  treads,  wood  floors, 
door  hinges  and  cabinets  are 
all  places  for  squeaks  that 
you  might  not  notice  any- 
more, but  a  buyer  will. 
Tighten  loo^e  cabdnets  and 
doorknobs. 

•  Replace  rusted  gutters 
and  screens  with  holes, 
clean  oil-stained  garage 
floors  and  driveways,  and 


repair  dripping  faucets  and 
doors  that  don't  open  easily. 

•  A  fresh  coat  of  interior 
paint  can  make  the  whole 
place  look  cleaner  and  big- 
ger, especially  if  you  go  with 
a  neutral  color. 

•  Paint  the  front  door  and 
make  the  entryway  look 
inviting.  Invest  in  new  door 
hardware. 

•  Buy  stronger  hghf  bulbs. 
Go  for  at  least  100  watt 
bulbs  all  over  the  house  to 
brighten  the  space,  especial- 
ly if  you're  showing  your 
home  on  an  overcast  day. 

•  Spend  the  money  for  a 
professional  cleaning  ser- 
vice at  least  once,  and  follow 
them  around  to  see  how  they 
doit. 

•  Make  sure  the  kitchen 
and  baths  are  sparkling 
clean. 

•  Consider  hiring  a  "stag- 
ing" consultation.  Stagers 
can  often  bring  in  higher 
prices  (and  faster  sales)  for 
homes  because  the  home  is 
rearranged  to  show  its  best 
features. 

•  Try  to  see  your  home  as  a 
buyer  will.  Aim  for  large, 
bright,  airy  rooms  free  of 
clutter.

policy  to  reflect  the  new 
enhancements  and  prevent 
being  underinsured. 

•  Backyard  items,  such  as 
a  trampoline  or  pool,  may 
require  you  to  increase  your 
liability  coverage  through  an 
umbrella  policy  that  protects 
you  in  the  event  that  someone 
is  injured  while  on  your 
property. 

•  As  you  acquire  more 
valuables-jewelry,  family 
heirlooms,  antiques,  art- 
consider  purchasing  an 
additional  "floater"  or  "rider" 
to  your  policy  to  cover  these 
special  items.  They're 
typically  not  covered  by  a 
basic  homeowners  or  renters 
policy. 

•  It  is  a  good  idea  to  make 
an  inventory  of  all  of  your 
personal  property,  along  with 
a  photograph  or  video  or  each 
room.  Also,  save  your 
receipts  for  major  items  and 
keep  them  in  a  safe  place 
away  from  your  house  or 
apartment.  That  will  make  it 
easier  if  you  need  to  file  a 
claim. 


New  Wood-Style  Fence  Is 
Fit  For  Outdoor  Living  Rooms 


(NAPS )  -  Whether  trying 
to  disconnect  from 
technology,  reconnect  with 
nature  or  simply  wind  down 
from  the  everyday  bustle, 
more  of  us  are  doing  so  in  our 
new  living  rooms-the 
backyard. 

According  to  the 
American  Institute  of 
Architects,  the  outdoor  living 
trend  continues  to  gain 
traction  as  Americans  invest 
in  upscale  landscaping  and 
outdoor  amenities.  In  fact, 
this  trend  has  become  a  way 
of  life  for  many  of  us.  We're 
looking  to  bring  the  indoors 
out  and  to  do  so  with  as  little 
fanfare  as  possible.  In  other 
words,  we  want  a  beautiful 
space,  without  the  upkeep. 

If  you  are  getting  in  on 
outdoor  living,  a  good  place 
to  start  is  with  a  solid  fence. 
More  than  an  outdoor 
accessory,  a  well-built  fence 


is  the  best  way  to  gain  a  little 
privacy  and  define  your 
personal  outdoor  space. 

The  look  of  wood  is  one 
way  to  create  warmth  for  a 
privacy  fence,  but  with  wood 
comes  maintenance. 

Recently,  CertainTeed 
Corporation,  North 

America's  leading  building 
products  manufacturer, 
introduced  a  vinyl  privacy 
fence  with  the  authentic  look 
of  wood.  Unlike  natural 
wood,  this  fence  withstands 
the  elements-rain  or  shine- 
becau.se  it  is  designed  with 
exceptional  impact  strength 
and  UV  resistance.  It's

look  of  a  freshly  painted 
fence. 

What's  more,  who  has 
time  to  repaint,  restain  or 
generally  maintain  a  fence 
that  ultimately  degrades  over 
time?  According  to  Chris 
Bourque  of  CertainTeed,  that 
is  among  the  top  reasons  for 
designing  the  Chesterfield 
fence  with  the  wood- 
emulating  CertainGrain 
texture.  "Many  homeowners 
want  a  traditional-looking 
fence,  yet  wood  is  often  less 
desirable  because  of  the  high 
maintenance  and 

replacement  costs.  By 
combining  easy-care  vinyl 
with  a  true-to-life  wood-grain 
texture,  homeowners  can 
have  their  cake  and  eat  it, 
too.  Or,  in  this  case,  have 
their  outdoor  living  space  and 
enjoy  it,  too." 

After  all,  the  idea  being 
this  outdoor  living  revolution 
is  about  winding  down  and 
taking  time  to  enjoy  life.  By 
opting  for  a  low -maintenance 
vinyl  fence  that  emulates  the 
warm  look  of  wood,  you  can 
get  the  best  of  both  worlds 
and  will  likely  be  the  envy  ol" 
your  neighbors.

outdoor  living  dream,  contact

Finding  Time 
to  Exercise 

a,  I  have  a  very  busy 
>  schedule  between 
and  family,  and  so 
have  very  limited  time  for 
workouts.  Tve  heard  that 
if  you  do  not  spend  one 
hour  per  day  on  exercise, 
you  are  wasting  your  time. 
Is  that  true? 

A  .Exercise  should  nev- 
•  er  be  considered  a 
waste  of  time.  I  would  much 
rather  see  you  exercise  for  a 
shorter  amount  of  time  than 
not  to  exercise  at  all.  There 
are  ways  to  use  the  time  you 
have  to  get  the  results  you 
want.  Here  arc  .some  sug- 
gestions. 

•  Schedule  exercise  in 
your  daily  planner.  When 
planning  your  day,  leave  a 
blcKk  of  time  available  ju.st 
for  you.  You  may  not  think 
you  have  any  time  available, 
but  look  hard.  TTiere  is  prob- 
ably 15  or  20  minutes 
between  appointments  that 
you  can  use  to  complete  a 
few  exercises. 

•  Plan  your  workout. 
Knowing  exactly  what  you 
are  going  to  do  with  the  time 
you  have  is  crucial.  If  you 
have  to  think  about  what 
exercises  you  are  going  to 
do  during  the  20  minutes 
you  have  allotted,  you  won't 
accomplish  much.  Use 
index  cards  to  write  down 
specific  workouts. 

Let's  say  you  have  20  min- 
utes while  waiting  for  your 
child  to  finish  soccer  prac- 
tice. Write  down  a  series  of 
leg  exercises  that  require  no 
equipment  and  that  can  be 
done  right  where  you  are. 
Squats,  lunges,  pli6  squats 


(feet  turned  out)  and  heel 
raises  can  be  completed  for 
three  sets  of  10-15  repeti- 
tions of  each  exercise.  If  the 
other  parents  look  at  you 
oddly,  ask  them  to  join  you. 
You  can  still  watch  your 
child  as  you  get  your  leg 
workout  completed. 

•  Don't  go  it  alone.  Many 
other  people  face  the  same 
challenges.  Join  together 
and  help  each  other  reach 
your  fitness  goals.  Co- 
workers or  neighbors  may 
be  interested  in  exercising 
together  at  lunch  or  after 
dinner. 

•  Make  it  a  family  affair. 
Get  your  entire  family 
involved.  Exercise  is  great 
for  everyone.  Not  only  will 
you  be  encouraging  a 
healthy  lifestyle,  you'll  also 
spend  quality  time  with  the 
}X?ople  who  are  most  impor- 
tant to  you. 

Keeping  fit  on  a  tight 
.schedule  is  a  challenge,  but 
it  is  also  what  makes  it  pos- 
sible for  you  to  handle  — 
and  enjoy  —  a  full  life  for 
the  long  haul. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

GUMMING  UP  THE  WORKS! 

Poor  oral  hygiene  can  lead     search  suggests  that  good  oral 


to  problems  that  extend  far  be- 
yond the  teeth,  gums,  and 
mouth.  In  fact,  bacteria  in  the 
mouth  can  lead  to  problems 
that  reach  throughout  the  body, 
including  heart  disea.se.  diabe- 
tes, blood  infection,  and  even 
low  birth-weight  babies.  The 
usual  culprit  is  gum  disea.se. 
People  with  gum  di.sea.se  (pe-

from  a  chronic  low-grade  in- 
fection. This  problem,  which 
affects  four  of  every  five 
Americans,  can  exacerbate  a 
wide  range  of  health  problems. 
In  fact,  gum  disease  is  thought 
to  introduce  bacteria  into  the 
bloodstream.  As  these  bacteria 
flow  from  the  mouth  to  other 
parts  of  the  body,  they  spread 
inflanunation.  To  avoid  this 
potentia]  problem,  brush  and 
floss  regularly  and  get  frequent 
dental  exams. 

A  growing  body  of  re-

Beside  Medication  Verification 

Milton  Hospital  Using 
Technology  To  Enhance  Patient  Safety 


Milton  Hospital,  a  clini- 
Lul  aHiliato  ot  Beth  Israel 
Deaconess  Medical  Center 
providing  coinniunity-based 
health  care,  is  proud  to  an- 
nounce the  iniplenientation 
ol  its  Bedside  Medication 
Verification  ( BM V)  technol- 
ogy. 

By  applying  common 
barcode  scanning  to  the  field 
of  medicine,  BMV  is  used  to 
identify  patients  and 
crosscheck  medical  records 
against  medications  pre- 
scribed during  a  patient's 
hospital  stay.  One  of  the  first 
community  hospitals  in  the 
area  to  adopt  this  technology. 
Milton  Hospital  is  utilizing 
soltware  Uom  Meditech, 
iieadi|uartered  in  Westwood. 
lor  the  iniplenientation, 

■'At  Milton  Hospital,  ovn 
top  priority  is  to  provide  the 
salest  patient  care  possible." 
stated  Joseph  Raduaz/o, 
M.D.,  chief  medical  officer 


DR.  JOSEPH  RADUAZZO 

at  Milton  Hospital.  "By  pro- 
viding tools  to  assist  our  phy- 
sicians  and  nurses  that 
streamline  processes,  we've 
created  a  more  efficient  sys- 
tem for  administering  medi- 
cation. BMV  will  help  us  to 
avoid  common  medication 
errors  by  ensuring  that  we 
adhere  to  the  'Five  Rights"  - 
the  right  medication  and 
right  dosage  provided  to  the 
right  patient  via  the  right 
route  at  the  right  time." 
Upon  check-in  to  Milton 


Hospital,  all  patients  are 
given  an  ID  bracelet  with  a 
unique  bar  code.  When 
medication  is  administered, 
BMV  is  used  to  confirm  a 
patient's  identity  by  scanning 
a  bar  code  on  a  patient's 
wristband.  Then,  caregivers 
verify  the  correct  medication 
and  dosage  for  that  patient  by 
scanning  barcodes  placed  on 
the  medication  package  by 
the  hospital's  pharmacy.  The 
information  is  processed  and 
crosschecked  against  patient 
medication  charts,  which  are 
filed  electronically  at  Milton 
Hospital.  The  process  allows 
immediate  access  to  a 
patient's  current  test  results, 
and  checks  for  any  allergies, 
potential  drug  interactions 
and  important  lab  test  results. 
The  Bedside  Medication 
Verification  program  is  one 
step  in  an  effort  to  develop 
an  entirely  electronic  medi- 
cal record  and  ordering  sys- 


tem at  Milton  Hospital.  As 
the  hospital  has  transitioned 
from  paper  to  electronic  pa- 
tient data,  it  has  implemented 
computer-based  systems  for 
its  nurses  and  pharmacy.  In 
2008,  Milton  Hospital  plans 
to  launch  similar  electronic 
systems  in  the  emergency 
department  for  medical 
records  and  order  entry,  and 
plans  to  implement  Comput- 
erized Physician  Order  En- 
try throughout  the  facility 
later  that  year. 

Milton  Hospital  provides 
community-based  health 
care  to  people  of  all  ages  in 
Milton,  Quincy,  Braintree, 
Randolph,  Canton,  Hyde 
Park,  Dorchester  and  other 
local  communities.  Services 
include  general  medical  and 
surgical  inpatient  care,  a 
complete  complement  of 
t>utpatient  health  services 
and  24-hour  emergency  ser- 
vices.

Sports  Injuries  Affecting 
More  Children's  Feet

Can  Yoga  Prevent 

Alzheimer's 

Disease? 

A  study  out  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  Pennsylvania  shows 
some  astonishing  possibili- 
ties in  the  prevention  and 
treatment  of  Alzheimer's 
Disease  —  and  it  only  takes 
12  minutes  a  day. 

The  study  involved  yoga,  of 
all  things,  and  meditadoa 
Backed  up  by  photographic 
evidence  (scans  of  the  brain 
to  measure  blood  flow  before 
and  after),  it  appears  that  a 
certain  type  of  yoga  and  med- 
itation  allows  the  brain  to 
heal. 

Granted,  the  study  only 
involved  11  people.  Their 
medical  histcmes  included 
diagnoses  of  mild  cognitive 
impairment  (or  early 
Alzheimer's)  or  ccsnplaints 
of  memory  loss.  But  all  1 1 
people  had  improved  short- 
term  memory,  visual  motor 
coordination,  concentration, 
vobal  fluency  and  focus. 
And  the  brain  imaging  scans 
showed  increased  blood 
flow  (which  means  more 
oxygen)  to  die  very  part  of 
die  bfain  wbat  Alzheimer's 
starts  —  the  cingulated 
gynis. 

One  thing  tfiat  is  key:  All 
11  paiticipuits  wanted  to 


continue  the  daily  medita- 
tion. Clearly  they  were  get- 
ting something  out  of  it.  As 
one  of  the  researchers  said, 
"This  is  a  form  of  exercise 
for  the  brain  which  enables 
the  brain  to  strengthen 
itself." 

The  kind  of  yoga  practiced 
was  Kirtan  Kriva,  one  of  the 
basic  Kundalini  yogas, 
which  inrvolves  simple  fin- 
ger movements  and  repeti- 
tion of  sounds. 

If  you'd  like  to  give  it  a  try, 
go  to  www.alzheimersprc- 
vention.org,  cUck  c»i 
Research  and  scroll  to  the 
bottcxn  of  the  page.  You'll 
find  instructions  including 
the  finger  movements,  and 
even  a  scale  showing  die  four 
musical  notes.  I  even  found 
how-to  videos  whrai  I 
searched  for  Kirtan  Kriya 
online. 

Can  this  yoga  meditation 
leaOy  prevent  Aldieimer's 
Disoise  or  improve  early  cog- 
nitive loss?  I'm  willing  to 
spead  the  12  minutes  a  day 
dcMng  the  meditation,  just  in 
case.  It's  hot,  there  are  no  side 
effects  and  I  can  do  it  at  home.

(NAPS) -Many  children 
dream  of  growing  up  and 
becoming  a  professional 
athlete.  But  some  might  not 
make  it  past  junior  high  at  the 
rate's  today's  kids  are 
competing. 

Foot  and  ankle  surgeons 
say  they're  seeing  more 
injuries  in  children  who  play 
high-level  sports  such  as 
gymnastics,  tennis,  soccer 
and  volleyball. 

"I'm  treating  chronic  heel 
injuries  in  preteen  athletes, 
where  a  few  years  ago  we 
saw  these  cases  only  among 
16-and  17-year  olds,"  says 
Robert  J.  Duggan,  DPM, 
FACFAS,  a  foot  and  ankle 
surgeon  in  Orlando,  Fla. 

Duggan  says  injuries  in 
these  preteens  include  high- 
level  sprains,  anklebone 
bruises  fractures  to  bones  in 
the  ball  of  the  foot,  painful 
and  irritated  nerves  and  heel 
injuries. 

The  American  College  of 
Foot  and  Ankle  Surgeons 
(ACFAS)  recommends 
players;  parents  and  coaches 
follow  two  steps: 

First,  seek  prompt 
treatment.  Delaying  care  and 
"playing  through  the  pain" 
could  make  the  injury  worse. 

Second,  allow  the  injury 
time  to  heal.  Follow  through 


will  full  rehabilitation. 
Children  who  rush  back  into 
competition  risk  repeated 
injuries  and  instabihty  in  their 
feet  and  ankles  well  into  their 
teen  and  adult  years.  Long- 
term  problems  can  include 
osteoarthritis  and  chronic 
ankle  instability. 

According  to  the  ACFAS 
consumer  Web  site 
www.FootPhysicians.com, 
people  with  untreated  chronic 
ankle  instabihty  may  suffer 
activity  limitations,  arthritis 
and  tendon  problems. 

Luckily,  treatments  for 
many  of  the  foot  and  ankle 
injuries  young  athletes  suffer 
don' t  always  require  surgery. 

"With  the  diagnostic  tools 
available  to  foot  and  ankle 
surgeons  and  knowledge  of 
the  demands  of  the  child's 
sport,  we  can  make  a  decision 
on  whether  surgery's 
necessary  and,  in  many  cases, 
avoid  it  altogether,"  Duggan 
says. 

Instead,  the  siu-geon  will 
often  immobilize  the  child's 
foot  for  a  period  of  time, 
followed  by  aggressive 
physical  therapy. 

Prompt  treatment  and 
rehabilitation  can  keep 
today's  competitive  young 
athletes  in  the  game  and  keep 
pro  sports  dreams  alive.

Opens  Best  Of  Three  Series  On  Road 

Quincy  Faces  Foxboro 
In  First  Round  Friday 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

Quincy  Legion  Post  95 
suffered  through  a  very  dif- 
ficuh  2006  season,  finishing 
the  year  with  a  2-18  record, 
but  changes  made  in  the  off- 
season have  helped  turn  the 
tide  for  the  better  for  one  of 
Quincy 's  two  legion  baseball 
teams. 

Post  95  concluded  its 
2007  regular  season  on  Mon- 
day night  against  Braintree 
Legion  at  Adams  Field.  The 
team  dropped  what  had  be- 
come a  meaningless  game  4- 
1.  Post  95  had  already  se- 
cured the  fourth  seed  in  the 
upcoming  legion  playoffs 
and  used  this  game  to  get 
some  work  in  for  all  1 8  of  the 
players  on  the  roster. 

With  the  loss  (the  team's 
second  in  a  row),  Quincy 
Post  95  finished  the  20-game 
regular  season  with  a  12-8 
record.  Their  first  round  op- 
ponent in  the  playoffs  will  be 
Foxboro  Legion.  The  best  of 
three  series  gets  underway 
this  Friday  on  the  road. 

"The  biggest  change  and 
the  best  move  that  was  made 
by  me  and  Quincy  Legion 
Post  was  the  hiring  of  first- 
year  manager  Dan 
Sweeney,"  said  Lenny  Seitz, 
athletic  officer  for  Post  95. 
"Dan  comes  from  a  great 
background.  Both  of  his  par- 
ents are  educators  in  the 
Randolph  school  system,  he 
is  young  (23  years  old),  he 
knows  baseball,  he  plays 
baseball  (at  Nichols  College) 
and  he  has  brought  excite- 
ment to  the  field  and  he  has 
really  developed  a  great  team 
chemistry  with  this  group  of 
kids." 


'  Legion  Baseball 


Quincy  Legion  Post  95, 
which  returned  twelve  of  its 
thirteen  eligible  players  from 
last  year's  2-18  team,  has 
used  its  past  experiences  to 
move  forward  and  to  start  to 
become  a  major  power- 
house, not  just  in  Quincy,  but 
on  the  local  American  Le- 
gion scene. 

"We  returned  twelve  of 
our  eligible  kids  this  year," 
Seitz  added,  "and  we  knew 
that  things  just  went  bad  last 
year.  Some  people  may  have 
written  us  off,  but  we  stayed 
the  course  even  when  we  had 
our  backs  against  the  wall. 
Our  goal  is  to  win-which  we 
have  done  this  year,  but  the 
long  range  outlook  is  to  get 
Quincy  Post  95  to  that  posi- 
tion where  people  want  to 
play  for  us.  And  with  the  ad- 
dition of  Dan  and  his  staff  we 
are  headed  in  the  right  di- 
rection." 

The  ten-game  swing  in 
the  win  column  this  year  has 
put  Post  95  back  into  play- 
ing the  games  that  really 
matter-the  playoffs-for  the 
first  time  since  2005.  And 
with  the  entire  roster  return- 
ing in  2008,  the  team's  future 
looks  bright. 

"[These]  guys  on  the  ros- 
ter this  year  have  never 
played  in  the  legion  play- 
offs," noted  Seitz,  "but 
maybe  that  is  a  good  thing 
come  Friday.  It  will  give  the 
team  and  for  that  matter  the 
coaching  staff  the  opportu- 
nity to  see  what  can  be  ac- 
complished. The  experience 
will  only  help  us  next  year 


when  we  return  our  entire 
roster." 

As  for  what  can  be  ex- 
pected when  the  post-season 
finally  gets  underway,  Seitz 
sees  a  team  that  can  hit  for 
power  and  average,  plays 
solid  defense  and  can  run, 
but  also  acknowledges  that 
good  or  bad  pitching  is  what 
will  be  the  difference  maker 
this  weekend  against 
Foxboro. 

"In  a  best-of-three  series 
you  need  to  be  able  to  pitch 
and  pitch  effectively.  I  am 
certain  that  we  can  hit,  field 
and  run  with  any  team  in 
these  playoffs,  but  the  key  is 
going  to  be  the  pitching  staff. 
If  we  can  get  innings  out  of 
our  starters  and  help  from 
our  relief  we  have  as  good  a 
shot  as  any  of  the  ten  teams 
to  advance." 

The  first  round  is  a  best- 
of-three,  winner  moves  on 
series  with  the  higher  seeded 
team,  in  this  case  Foxboro, 
having  the  option  of  decid- 
ing which  two  games  will  be 
played  in  Foxboro.  Quincy 
Post  95  could  be  faced  with 
having  to  win  one  of  the  first 
two  games  on  the  road  in  or- 
der to  get  a  Game  Three  back 
at  Adams  Field. 

The  winner  of  the 
Quincy-Foxboro  series 
moves  on  to  play  in  a  best- 
of-three  second  round  game, 
with  just  a  little  twist.  Once 
the  playoffs  switch  to  a  sec- 
ond round,  the  games  move 
from  a  seven  inning  affair  to

Morrisette  Ends  Regular  Season 
At  8-11-1,  Misses  Playoffs 


Morrisette  Legion  played 
Canton  Legion  Monday  night 
with  the  winner  ad\  ancing  to 
the  American  Legion 
playoffs,  and  the  loser 
heading  home  for  the 
summer. 

Morrisette  lost  a  heart 
breaker  2-1.  effectively 
ending  their  2007  season  at 
8-11-1.  missing  the  playoffs 
by  only  one  point.  Starting 
pitcher  Glen  Misho  allowed 
two  runs  in  the  first  on  a 
triple,  single,  single,  stolen 
base  and  a  suicide  squeeze. 
Misho  settled  down  after  the 
first  and  held  Canton 
scoreless  the  remainder  of 
the  game,  but  the  Morrisette 
offense  could  muster  only 
one  run  against  Canton  in  the 
top  of  the  fifth  inning. 

Morrisette  Legion  found 
itself  in  the  position  of

(Cont'd  From  Page  /9) 

a  nine  inning  affair,  which  is 
something  the  Quincy 
coaching  staff  will  have  to 
deal  with  if  they  get  that  far. 

"Wc  need  to  get  past 
Fo.xboro  and  that  will  be  a 
big  test  for  us."  said  Seitz, 
"and  if  we  do  the  games  get 
longer  and  pitching  becomes 
that  much  more  vital  to  any 
team's  success.  But  getting 
ready  to  play  in  the  post-sea- 
son beats  finishing  the  year 
at  2-18." 

On  Monday,  Post  95 
ended  its  2007  season  with  a 
4-1  loss  to  Braintree.  Start- 
ing pitcher  Jared  Kenney  al- 
lowed the  first  three 
Braintree  batters  of  the  game 
to  reach  base.  Two  of  those 
three  scored  and  Post  95 
quickly  found  itself  down  2- 
0  after  one  inning. 

Following  a  relatively 
easier  bottom  of  the  first- 
Quincy 's  Tom  Power  opened 
the  game  with  a  single,  but 
was  left  stranded  at  second- 
Braintree  would  come  back 
to  score  twice  more  in  the  top 
of  the  second  inning.  Kenney 
got  the  first  batter  to  pop  out 
to  shortstop  Mike  LeBel,  and 
followed  that  by  inducing  a 


lazy  fly  ball  to  left  field.  Left 
fielder  Kyle  Tobin  lost  the 
ball  in  the  fading  light,  al- 
lowing the  baiter  to  reach 
second. 

As  is  the  case  almost  al- 
ways in  baseball,  the  extra 
out  came  back  to  bite  Post  95 
and  Kenney.  Braintree 
knocked  a  run-scoring  single 
up  the  middle  immediately 
following  the  error,  and  af- 
ter a  walk  put  runners  on  first 
and  second,  Braintree  scored 
its  fourth  and  final  run  on  a 
RBI  single  under  the  glove 
of  third  baseman  John 
Alexander. 

Kenney  shut  down 
Braintree  after  the  second, 
but  Post  95  could  manage  to 
plate  just  one  run  in  the  bot- 
tom of  the  fourth.  Mike 
LeBel  singled,  and  after  two 
strikeouts,  Alexander 
reached  on  an  error.  Catcher 
Kevin  Bossart  scored  LeBel 
with  an  RBI  single.  That 
would  be  all  the  scoring  the 
rest  of  the  night. 

Post  95  could  have  fin- 
ished as  high  as  number  two 
in  the  playoff  seeding,  but 
the  team's  4-3  loss  to 
Weymouth  Legion  on  Sun- 
day at  Adams  Field  all  put 


regulated  them  to  the  fourth 
seed  position.  There  were  a 
couple  of  different  senerios 
that  would  have  given 
Quincy  Post  the  second  seed 
(such  as  Quincy  beating 
Braintree  and  Weymouth 
losing  to  West  Roxbury),  but 
the  team's  loss  to  Braintree 
ended  any  hope  of  improv- 
ing their  standing. 

Nonetheless,  Quincy  Le- 
gion Post  95  is  back  from  the 
brink  and  they  are  gearing  up 
to  be  a  team  to  be  reckoned 
with  for  a  long  time  coming, 
and  that  is  music  to  the  ears 
and  hearts  of  all  its  fans, 
loyal  supporters,  parents, 
players  and  coaching  staff. 

"This  year  has  been  great 
so  far,"  said  Seitz.  "We  con- 
tinue to  play  in  the  present 
and  we  are  committed  to 
planning  for  the  future." 

Quincy  Post  95's  roster 
includes:  John  Alexander, 
Anthony  Alibrandi,  Kevin 
Bossart,  Tom  Conley,  Mike 
Crifo,  Mike  Horgan,  William 
Kiley,  Steve  Kussman,  Jared 
Kenney,  Mike  Jay,  Mike 
LeBel,  Mike  Leone,  Jay 
Lewis,  Tom  Power,  Dan 
Richards,  Kyle  Tobin,  Pat 
Totten  and  Scott  Worwick.

Stars 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  You  clever  Ewes  and 
Rams  love  nothing  more  than 
to  rise  to  a  challenge.  So,  by- 
all  means,  if  you  feel  sure 
about  your  facts,  step  right  up 
and  defend  your  side  of  the 
i.ssue. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  You've  done  some  great 
work  recently.  Now  it's  time 
to  reward  yourself  with 
something  wonderful,  per- 
haps a  day  at  a  spa  or  a  night 
out  with  someone  very  spe- 
cial. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  You  love  to  tdlk,  but  don't 
forget  to  make  time  to  do  a 
little  more  listening,  other- 
wise you  could  miss  out  on 
an  important  message  some- 
one might  be  trying  to  send 
vou. 

'  CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Your  aspect  indicates 
some  unccriainty  about  one 
of  your  goals.  Use  this  pericxi 
of  shifting  attitudes  to 
reassess  what  you  really  want 
iuid  what  you're  ready  to  do 
to  get  it. 

LEO  (July  2."^  to  August  22) 
Your  social  life  is  picking  up. 
and  you'll  soon  be  mingling 
with  old  friends  and  making 
new  ones.  But  'twixt  the  fun 
times,  stay  on  top  of  chang- 
ing workplace  conditions. 

VIRGO  (August  23  Sep- 
tember 22)  A  tmsted  friend 
offers  understanding  as  you 
vent  some  long-pent-up  feel- 
ings. Now,  move  on  from 
there  and  start  making  the 
changes  you've  put  off  all 
this  time. 


LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  You  might  well 
feel  uneasy  as  you  face  a  dif- 
ficult situation  involving 
someone  close  to  you.  But 
you  know  you're  doing  the 
right  thing,  so  stick  with  your 
decision. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  You're  a  good 
friend  to  others.  Now's  the 
time  to  allow  them  to  be  good 
friends  to  you.  Rely  on  their 
tnisted  advice  to  help  you  get 
through  an  uncertain  period. 
SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Fam- 
ily and  friends  are  always 
important,  but  especially  so 
at  this  time.  Despite  your 
hectic  workplace  schedule, 
make  a  real  effort  to  include 
them  in  your  life. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  That  pro- 
ject you've  been  working  on 
is  almost  ready  for  presenta- 
tion. But  you  still  need  some 
infomiation  from  a  colleague 
before  you  can  consider  it 
done. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  IS)  Don't  let  those 
negative  attitudes  that  have 
spmng  up  around  you  drain 
your  energies.  Shrug  them 
off,  and  move  ahead  with  the 
confidence  that  you  can  get 
the  job  done. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Aspects  favor 
some  dedicated  fun  time  for 
the  hardworking  Piscean.  A 
nice,  refreshing  plunge  into 
the  social  swim  can  recharge 
your  physical  and  emotional 
batteries. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
love  to  travel  and  be  with 
people.  You  probably  would 
be  happy  as  a  social  director 
on  a  cruise  ship.

Munagin{>  I)iri>ctor 


A  WouetfT 

Emily  Dickinson,  the  19th-century 
American  poet,  always  knew  that  she 
meant  and  always  found  the  words  to 
convey  her  meaning.  She  wrote:  "I  don't 
know  of  anything  so  mighty  as  words. 
There  are  those  to  which  I  lift  my  hat 
when  I  see  them  sitting  princelike  on  the 
page." 

W  ords  can  sway  multitudes.  They 
can  convey  hate  or  love,  contempt  or  tenderness.  They  can  drive 
the  hearers  to  mass-suicide  (the  tragedy  at  Jonestown),  or  they  can 
give  life  meaning  (the  Sermon  on  the  Mount). 

Whether  it  is  long  or  short,  just  a  card  with  a  bit  of  news  or  an 
invitation  -  a  visit  from  the  mailman  is  a  meaningful  experience. 
But  how  many  of  us  use  our  talents  in  writing  letters?  We  all  can 
write  a  cheerful  word,  but  are  we  taking  the  time  to  do  it? 

Let's  think  about  letters  in  a  different  way.  Let's  think  about 
us  -  you  and  I  -  AS  letters.  Through  our  deeds,  our  gifts,  our  very 
being,  each  of  us  is  writing  a  living  letter . . .  Our  enthusiasm  can 
be  a  letter  of  contagion:  our  carelessness  a  letter  of  dismay;  our 
thoughtfuiness  a  letter  of  kindness;  our  happiness  a  letter  of  joy. 

Yes,  you  and  I  are  letters  and  we  can  be  letters  on  the  pages  of 
the  human  heart! . . .

A  Mass  of  remembrance 
for  the  Rev.  Alfred  V.  Keane, 
75,  former  pastor  of  St.  Ann's 
Church,  was  celebrated  July 
13  at  St.  Ann's  Church,  757 
Hancock  St.,  Wollaston. 

The  Rev.  Keane  died  July 
7  at  Maryknoll  Nursing 
Home  in  New  York. 

Born  in  Dorchester,  the 
Rev.  Keane  attended 
Maryknoll  Convent  School 
and  was  ordained  in  1958. 
He  was  sent  to  Korea  and 
served  in  various  ministries 
in  the  Diocese  of  Chong  Ju 
and  Inchon  for  more  than  20 
years. 

He  was  a  high  school 
teacher  and  prmcipal  at  Sa- 
cred Heart  School  lor  the 
Deaf  in  Korea. 

The  Rev.  Keane  helped 
establish  the  Maryknoll  Lan- 
guage School  and  brought 
modem  education  for  the  deaf 
to  Korea. 

He  was  the  first  pastor  of 
Holy  Family  Parish,  Pou 
Pyeong,  Inchon.  He  contin- 
ued his  support  for  the  well 
being  of  his  people  through 
the  foundation  of  a  credit 
union,  assistance  for  work- 
ers in  the  factories  and  aid  to 
a  large  group  of  lepers  in  the 
area. 

During  this  time,  he  also 
served  the  Society  as  OTP 
Coordinator,  Research  and 
Planning  coordinator  and 
worked  to  establish  the 
Maryknoll  Language  School. 
It  was  while  in  the  capac- 
ity of  pastor  that  Fr.  Keane 
became  aware  of  the  prob- 
lems facing  the  Amerasian 
children  in  Korea  and  other 
parts  of  Asia.  He  devoted  his 
efforts  to  the  passage  of  a  law 
by  the  U.S.  Congress  allow- 
ing these  rejected  children  to 
come  home  to  America.  Of 
this.  President  Ronald  Regan 
wrote  to  him:  "I  personally 


REV.  ALFRED  KEANE 

tireless  efforts. . .  in  bringing 
the  plight  of  these  children  to 
the  attention  of  the  Ameri- 
can public  and  government." 

Cardinal  O'Connor  also 
wrote:  "i  have  deeply  ad- 
mired your  selfless  dedica- 
tion to  the  cause  of  Amerasian 
children." 

His  favorite  scripture  was 
from  St.  Paul  to  the 
Corinthians:  "By  the  grace 
of  God,  I  am  who  I  am."  Fr. 
Keane  said,  "Grace  is  a  gift, 
a  gift  that  makes  me  first  a 
gift  to  self  and  then  to  and  for 
others." 

In  declining  health,  Fr. 
Keane  spent  the  last  several 
years  in  the  loving  care  of  the 
staff  at  St.  Theresa's  Resi- 
dence in  Maryknoll,  N.Y. 

H  was  buried  with  his 
Maryknoll  family  on  July  1 1. 

He  is  survived  by  a 
brother,  the  Rev.  Thomas 
Keane,  a  retired  priest  of  the 
Boston  Archdiocese  and 
former  pastor  of  St.  Ann's 
parish  in  Quincy;  a  sister, 
Judith  Keane  of  Quincy ;  three 
nephews,  a  niece  and  three 
grandnephews  and  five 
grandnieces. 

He  was  the  son  of  the  late 
Thomas  and  Mary  (Lydon) 
Keane.

OSTEOMYELITIS  OF  THE  FOOT  (BONE  INFECTION) 


Any  time  you  get  a  sore, 
ulcer,  or  cut  on  your  foot,  bacte- 
ria and  other  organisms  can  get 
in.  Sometimes,  the  body  can 
fight  off  the  germs,  and  some- 
times it  can't.  If  the  germs  cause 
an  i  nf ection ,  it  can  spread  to  the 
bones  in  the  foot,  which  is  very 
dangerous  and  requires  prompt 
medical  attention.  Symptoms  of 
a  bone  Infection  include  red- 
ness, swelling,  or  a  feeling  of 
heat.  Fever  or  any  sort  of  drain- 
age coming  from  the  wound  can 
also  indicate  osteomyelitis.  Your 
podiatrist  will  probably  culture 
the  wound  and  prescribe  antibi- 
otics. Sometimes,  you  may  not 
even  know  you  have  a  cut,  so  if 
you  notice  these  symptoms  with 
an  oozing  from  the  toenail,  call 
your  doctor. 

Whenever  our  patients  are 
dealing  with  a  medically  related 
problem,  we  will  work  with  all 
their  healthcare  providers  to 


ensure  maximum  treatment 
and  comfort.  We  don't  treat 
the  entire  body,  but  our  expe- 
rience shows  that  foot  prob- 
lems can  affect,  and  be  af- 
fected by ,  the  rest  of  the  body's 
health.  We  do  treat  all  manner 
of  foot  diseases,  conditions, 
disorders,  injuries,  and  bone 
deformities.  For  a  compas-

Summer  Crews  At  Work 


City's 
Being 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Summer  work  crews 
have  begun  painting  the 
city's  2400  fire  hydrants  in 
an  effort  to  spruce  up  the 
city  and  alert  firefighters 
to  the  different  size  water 
lines  beneath  the  surfaces. 
"It's  really  an  initiative 
to  buff  up  our  image," 
Public  Works 

Commissioner  Steve 
O'Donnell  said  this  week, 
noting  there  was  money  set 
aside  in  his  budget  for  the 
project.  He  said  that 
painting  the  hydrants  fits 
in  with  the  current 
neighborhood 
beautification  plans. 

In  addition,  each 
hydrant  cap  is  being  color- 
coded,  according  to 
national  standards,  to 
indicate  the  size  of  the 
water  pipe  serving  that  line. 
Fire  Department 
Inspector  John  Keegan  said 
the  different  colored  caps 
will  identify  "what  size  of 
main  is  beneath  (the 
hydrant)....  and  how  much 
water  to  expect  out  of  it..." 
Under  certain 

circumstance.  Kccgan  said 
that  firefighters  v\  ill  know 
by  looking  at  the  hydrant 
cap  that  they  should  hook 
up  to  a  different  h\diaiii 
served  by  a  larger  water 
main. 

O'Donnell  said  that  the 
2400  hydrants  are  in  good 
working  order.  However, 
most  of  them  need  a  coat  of 
paint  and  the  temporary 
workers  should  paint  the 
last  one  by  summer's  end. 
According  to 

O'Donnell.  roughly  40 
hydrants  out  of  2400 
hydrants  could  be  out  of 
order  at  any  one  time  but 
that  is  in  hne  with  or  lower 
than  other  cities  or  towns. 
"You're  always  going 
to  have  some  out  for 
repair."  O'Donnell  said, 
adding  that  most  hydrant 
problems  occur  after  traffic 
accidents    or,    in    cold

After  e\ery  accident, 
police  notify  his  department 
and  the  fire  department  when 
a  hydrant  is  damaged, 
according  to  O'Donnell. 

City  officials  just  w  ont  out 
to  bid  for  replacement 
hydrants  with  a  S:4. ()()() 
budget  set-aside  that 
O'Donnell  said  is  the  iiorinal 
amount  for  annual  hydrant 
replacement.  . 

"It  will  be  a  little  bit  less 
this  year,"  said  O'Donnell, 
noting  that  last  winter's 
snowfall  was  lower  than 
normal. 

In  late  March,  the  City 
Council  reviewed  statistics 


Chief  Timoth\  Pettinelli 
called  the  issue  oi  non- 
v^orking  fire  h\dranls  "a 
non-issue"  and  suggested 
that  the  numbers  wlmc 
exaggerated. 

.Se\eral  councillors 
suggested  painting  non- 
working  hydrants  hut 
.Mayor  William  Phelan  and 
O'Donnell  rejected  that 
solution. 

"I'd  rather  put  the  labor 
and  effort  into  repairing 
them,"  O'Donnell  said  this 
week,  noting  that  very  very 
few  hydrants  are  out  of 
service  today. 

In   March   and  early 


on  broken  fire  hydrants  after  April,  the  fire  department 
several  councillors  charged  statistics  list  identified  33 
that  there  were  too  many  non-  defective  hydrants  and  50 
working  fire  hydrants  and  no  low-flow  hydrants  with  80

communication  on  the  issue  drain  hydrants  are  flushed 
between  city  departments.  out  and  do  not  need  repair. 


Including  Strategic  Signs 

City  Launches 

Pedestrian  Safe 

Summer  Campaign 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
has  launched  a  pedestrian 
safety  campaign  for  the  sum- 
mer months. 

Phelan  highlighted  a 
number  of  new  initiatives  to 
be  undertaken  including: 

Installation  of  22  new 
"Pedestrian  Safety"  signs  at 
crosswalks  throughout 
Quincy.  highhghting  the  fine 
for  failure  to  yield  to  pedes- 
trians. 

Follow-up  Quincy  Police 
enforcement  of  pedestrian 
yield  laws  at  highlighted  in- 
tersections. 

Placing  "Pedestrian  Safe 
Summer"  signs  along  high- 
visibility  roadways  to  en- 
courage motorists  to  think 
about  pedestrian  safety. 


Adding  a  pedestrian  walk 
cycle  at  the  intersection  of 
Southern  Artery  and  Quincy 
Avenue  to  allow  p)edestrians 
from  l(XX)Southem  Artery  to 
safely  access  stores. 

Adding  additional  turning 
arrows  at  the  intersection  of 
East  Squantum/West 

Squantum  and  Hancock 
Streets  to  improve  traffic 
flow  in  an  effort  to  improve 
pedestrian  and  motorist 
safety. 

"More  pedestrians  use 
our  streets  and  sidewalks 
during  the  warm  summer 
months  w  hen  school  is  not  in 
session,  "  said  Phelan.  "It 
makes  sense  that  we  lake 
steps  to  ensure  the  safety  of 
our  pedestrians.  These  steps 


will  help  improve  public 
safety  and  1  encourage  ev- 
eryone to  obey  these  impor- 
tant safety  laws." 

The  fine  notification 
crosswalks  will  be  placed  at 
high-use  intersections  in 
business  districts,  near  play- 
grounds, and  along  Sea 
Street.  The  4'  by  8'  banners 
will  be  placed  along  mam 
thoroughfares  around 
Quincy. 

DPW  Commissioner 
Steve  O'Donnell  added:  "We 
are  working  hard  to  make 
sure  that  motorists  are  aware 
of  pedestrian  crossing  areas. 
We  can  significantly  im- 
prove public  safety  simply 
by  education  and  enforce- 
ment."

PRKSIDNET  CKORGK  BUSH  greets  Iman  Talal  Eid  of  Quincy  at  the  Ramadan  Dinner  in  the 
White  House  last  year. 


IMAN  TALAL  EID,  shown  in  his  Quincy  home,  in  May  was  appointed  by  President  George 
Bush  to  the  U.S.  Commission  on  International  Religious  Freedom,  the  first  Muslim  cleric  named. 


Behind  him  is  a  framed  verse  from  the  Holy  Qur'an. 


press  were  positive." 

Then,  in  January  2007  he 
reeeived  a  eall  From  a  White 
House  sfwkesperson  inform- 
ing him  of  his  nomination  to 
the  eommission  by  the  Presi- 
dent. 

"I  thought  about  it  for  two 
weeks,  then  they  called  me 
again,  and  then  we  con- 
firmed, provided  I  passed 
security  clearance.  I  filled 
out  the  necessary  papers  to 
be  investigated  by  the  FBI, 
and  then  I  waited.  And  in 
May.  1  recei\  ed  word  that  the 
position  was  mine." 

With  an  annual  budget  of 
about  3  million  dollars,  the 
commission  and  its  employ- 
ees are  based  in  Washington 
and  monitor  religious  free- 
dom in  countries  who  are 


members  of  the  U.N.  and 
who  recognize  the  Universal 
Declaration  of  Human 
Rights. 

Eid  said,  "Anyone  in  this 
category  is  subject  to  our 
observances;  in  particular, 
countries  who  receive  assis- 
tance from  the  U.S.  Those 
are  the  countries  that  we 
monitor,  and  if  we  see  viola- 
tions of  religious  freedom, 
we  raise  our  concern  and  we 
communicate  with  these 
countries —  with  the  public 
and  with  the  government  of- 
ficials." 

Eid  has  already  made  his 
first  official  trip  for  the  com- 
mission, to  Saudi  Arabia. 
Officials  of  the  visited  coun- 
tries are  informed  that  the 
commission  would  like  to 


Miriam  Josepli  plwto 

meet  with  various  religious 
sects  and  religious  minorities 
for  a  dialogue. 

"Six  years  ago  they 
found  Saudi  Arabia  to  be 
CPC;  that  means  a  country 
of  particular  concern.  The 
overall  reaction  was  that 
maybe  lO^r  of  the  people  do 
not  welcome  us,  but  the  gov- 
ernment allowed  us  to  come 
here  to  discuss  these  issues 
and  reach  an  understanding 
that  the  government  is  tak- 
ing these  concerns  seriously 
and  is  responding  to  them." 

"All  minorities  who  are 
not  enjoying  their  rights  as 
citizens  are  invited  to  talk  to 
us... our  job  is  international 
religious  freedom  and  hu- 
man rights.  And  we  have  the

Bigger  Beach  Guide  Out 

Foot,  Body  Showers 
Coming  To  WoUaston  Beach 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

The  two-year.  $7  million 
improvement  project  to 
Wollaston  Beach  will  in- 
clude body  and  foot  showers 
on  "bumps"  adjoining  the 
sidewalks. 

"Beach  access  will  be  im- 
proved and  new  amenities 
including  benches,  foot  and 
body  showers,  water  bub- 
blers, bike  racks  and  land- 
scaping will  be  added," 
writes  Ward  5  City  Council- 
lor Doug  Gutro  om  the  new 
Quincy  Beach  Guide. 

"Finally,  a  new  pavilion 
in  East  Elm  Park  and  tot  lot 
equipment  will  be  located 
adjacent  in  the  Brett  Bath 
House." 

The  seventh  annual  edi- 
tion of  the  Quincy  Beaches 
and  Coastal  Commission's 
Beach  Guide  is  out,  bigger 
and  better  than  ever  —  but 
not  as  big  as  the  publishers 
would  like. 

"We  had  to  cut  it  down," 
said  Commission  Chairman 
Leo  Kelly.  "It  was  so  big, 
we  couldn't  use  the  stapling 
machine.  We  had  to  staple  it 
by  hand.  If  we  can't  staple 
it,  we've  got  a  problem." 

Whatever,  the  2007  edi- 
tion of  the  Beach  Guide 
wound  up  with  a  hefty  64 
pages  compared  to  56  in  the 
2006  edition,  including  a  full 
page  instructing  kids  on  how 
to  make  a  sand  castle. 

Did  you  know  that  you 
should  be  careful  in  choos- 
ing a  site  for  your  castle  be- 
cause "the  tide  comes  in 
(and)  picking  a  site  too  close 
to  the  water  might  wash 
away  your  hard  work?" 

Two  pages  are  devoted  to 
the  "wrack  line,"  the  beach 
area  between  high  and  low 
tide  where  debris  and  some 
goodies  from  the  sea  are  de- 
posited as  the  tide  moves  out. 

It  takes  a  whole  page  to 
describe  beach  sand  as  "a 
mixture  of  fragments  worn 
down  from  rocks  and  shells," 
which  gives  the  kids  some- 
thing to  think  about  as  the 
build  their  castles.

By  MARIK  D'OI.IMIMO 

At  least  two  members  ol 
the  License  Board  appear  to 
be  in  favor  of  changing  the 
Tuesday  morning  meeting 
from  10  a.m.  to  4  p.m.  as 
suggested  by  a  letter  from 
Mayor  William  Phelan  to 
give  residents  and  business 
interests  an  equal  opportu- 
nity to  attend. 

Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  said  he  agreed  with 
the  mayor  and  said  he  would 
support  a  change  in  the  hours 
to  4  p.m. 

Jay  Duca,  director  of 
inspectional  services  said  he 
thought  it  was  a  "good  idea" 
and  said  it  would  allow  more 
residents  and  also  make  it 
easier  for  ward  councillors  to 


attcikl. 

Health  Commissioner 
Drew  Scheele  said  alter  6.^ 
years  o{  holding  morning 
meetings,  he  suggested  a 
meeting  with  others  who  uti- 
lize the  building  on  that  day. 

Maralin  Manning,  execu- 
tive director  i>f  the  Quincy 
Business  Association  op- 
posed the  change  and  said 
persons  who  are  at  work, 
would  have  to  leave  by  .^ 
p.m.  to  attend  at  4  p.m.  meet- 
ing. She  said  persi)ns  would 
'lt)se  sometime  during  the 
day  if  one  chooses  to  do  it." 

Maureen  Glynn,  a  resi- 
dent ol  Marina  Bay  said 
there  are  still  problems  at  the 
bay.  and  suggested  a  meet- 
ing at  2  p.m.  when  more  resi- 


dents could  participate. 

ClKiirman  loseph  Shea 
read  a  letter  of  approval  from 
three  members  of  the  Marina 
Bay  Civic  Associatii»n  citing 
greater  public  participation. 

Shea  said  on  one  given 
Tuesday  when  the  license 
board  meeting  was  lengthy, 
he  also  had  to  attend  a  zon- 
ing board  hearing  the  same 
night.  The  board  plans  to 
speak  to  others  who  use  the 
City  Hall  chambers  on  Tues- 
days. 

On  a  motion  by  l-'ire  Chief 
Timothy  Pettmelli.  the  board 
voted  to  take  the  issue  under 
advisement  and  continued 
the  meeting  until  Aug.  14

Chairman  Kelly  himself 
lists  the  Top  10  things  you

Jack  Lydon.  the  "Fisherman

to  make  the  cut  on  the  sta-

It  \\;is  IHl:  store  to  go  to  tor  quality  clothiiig  and

Hancock  .Siieet.  Nou.  sadl\.  gone  lor  20  >ears  ne.\t

I  rank  Kcmick  made  it  Quinex's  nu^st  prestigious 
sioie.  So  piestigioiis.  it  dreu  faithtiil 
customers  liom  Boston  and  throughout 
the  .South  Sh(Me. 

RememlHM'  those  heautirul 
decoiated  u  indows  at  C'hiistmas  with 
as  man\  as  M)  animated  tigures 
delighting  children  and  adults  alike, 
riiere  w  as  a  dil'terenl  theme  annually . 
One  \ear.  I  remember,  it  uas  the 
■■Nutciackei  Suite"  with  mo\ing  ballet  tigures. 

■As  an  attraction,  those  w  indt)\vs  were  right  up  there 
with  the  .Adams  Birthplaces  and  the  Adams  Mansion. 
rhe\  were  almost  as  much  of  a  Christmas  '"must"  -  as 
going  to  church. 

Then  thei  e  w  ere  the  annual  art  show  s  with  the  second 
tlot>r  turned  into  an  art  gallery  featuring  the  paintings 
and  sculptures  oi  top  artists  and  draw  ing  as  many  as 
S.OOO  \  iewers.  There  w as  e\ en  a  boat  show  . 

And.  kA  course,  there  was  Archie,  a  15-pound 
Humboldt  W'olley  nn)nkey-a  blue  blood  in  the  monkey 
famil) .  Smartly  attired  in  hismonogrammedturtleneck 
sw  eaters.  .Archie  presided  o\er  the  Monkeyshines  Shoe 
Shop  for  children.  He  greeted  youngsters  for  several 
years,  cavorting  in  his  pink  and  gold  cage. 

But  -Archie  lost  his  job  in  1960  when  the  kiddie  shoe 
department  was  eliminated  to  make  room  for  an 
expanded  customer  service  department. 

Bernice  Meldon.  director  of  sales  promotion, 
launched  a  search  for  a  new  home  for  Archie. 

"We  are  going  to  be  sure  Archie  gets  a  home  that  is 
full  ctf  lo\e."  she  said. 

1  was  with  the  Boston  Traveler  then  and  wrote  a 
column  about  Archie  and  the  hunt  for  his  new  home. 
A  Chelmsford  couple  w  ere  happy  to  give  Archie  that 
new  home. 

"A  monkey's  paradise."  Bernice  described  it.  "With 
acres  of  monkey-edible  red  clover  blossoms,  indoor 
and  outdoor  apartments  and  the  company  of  a  female 
Capuchin  mt)nkey." 

Archie  must  have  thought  he  had  died  and  gone  to 
heaven. 

Who  could  forget  the  men's  clothing  department's 
Ellie  Hughes,  Ray  Josephine,  Russ  Johnson,  AI  Monroe? 
They  knew  what  you  liked.  And  if  a  suit  or  jacket  came 
in  they  thought  you  would  want,  they  would  call  you 
and  set  it  aside. 

Frank  Remick  was  proud  of  his  store  but  more  so  of 
his  daughter,  actress  Lee  Remick  who  was  bom  in 
Quincy. 

Candidates  Night  For 
Special  Education  Aug.  14 


LEE 
REMICK 


The  Quincy  Parent  Advi- 
sory Council  for  Special 
Education  will  hold  a  candi- 
dates night  for  School  Com- 
mittee candidates  Tuesday, 
Aug.  14,  at  7  p.m.  in  the  caf- 
eteria of  the  Lincoln- 
Hancock  School,  300  Gran- 
ite St. 

The  candidates,  Jo-Ann 
Bragg,  Elaine  Ehvyer,  David 


McCarthy,  Eileen  Mullen 
and  Nick  Puleo,  have  been 
invited  to  discuss  their  back- 
grounds, platforms,  view- 
points and  the  issues  facing 
the  schools. 

The  candidates  will  be 
asked  to  respond  to  series  of 
prepared  questions.  An  audi- 
ence question  and  answer 
period  will  be  included. 


IHK  PRKSri(;i()l'S  RKMIC  KS  store  was  located  at  1517 
Hancock  .St.  in  downto\«n  Quincy.  But  no  one  needed  the 
addre.ss  to  yet  there.  Everyone  knew  where  it  was. 

Miss  Remick  won  many  accolades  as  an  actress 
including  an  Academy  Award 
nomination  for  her  portrayal  of  an 
alcoholic  wife  in  "Days  of  Wine  an 
Roses"  w  ith  Jack  Lemmon.  She  had 
her  own  star  on  the  Hollywood  Walk 
and  was  a  Life  magazine  cover  girl. 
But  perhaps  her  finest  tribute  as  an 
actress  was  short,  sweet  and  somew  hat 
private. 
It  came  from  her  father. 

She  had  played  a  trampy  sexy  role  in  one  of  her  early 
movies  and  I  asked  him  for  his  reaction  when  he  saw  it. 
Remick  smiled  and  said:  "1  thought  she  was  so  good 
I  could  have  spanked  her." 

She  became  a  favorite  story  at  the  store. 
A  young  high  school  girl  working  part-time  one  day 
saw  a  woman  walking  around  putting  items  into  a 
shopping  bag. 

She  telephoned  upstairs  to  Bill  Draicchio,  a  Quincy 
police  officer,  working  security  on  his  own  time. 

"Just  keep  an  eye  on  her  but  don't  do  anything  until 
I  get  there."  Draicchio  told  her. 

He  rushed  down  the  stairs.  The  girl  pointed  out  the 
woman.  Draicchio  looked  and  stopped. 

"That's  Lee  Remick,"  he  told  the  girl.  "She  can  have 
anything  in  the  store." 

Miss  Remick's  son,  Matthew  Colleran,  worked  at 
the  store  summers  and  she  stopped  by  to  visit  him  and 
her  father.  And,  while  there,  to  pick  out  a  few  things. 
The  girl  hadn't  recognized  her  because  she  had  not 
seen  her  in  a  movie.  But  she  became  a  fan  that  day. 

When  Miss  Remick  heard  that  she  had  raised  the 
young  girl '  s  suspicion  by  slipping  articles  into  a  shopping 
bag,  she  smiled  and  said  to  her:  "You're  doing  your 
job." 

Frank  Remick  laughed  when  he  heard  about  the 
incident. 

Regular  employees  got  accustomed  to  seeing  Miss 
Remick  strolling  through  the  store  on  a  number  of 
occasions. 

Local  residents  were  among  the  first  to  spot  her 
talent  when  she  was  still  a  virtual  unknown. 

That  was  back  in  the  early  1950s  when  she  played  a 
supporting  role  in  "Brigadoon"  at  the  South  Shore 
Music  Theater. 

In  those  days,  she  was  known  as  "Frank  Remick's 
daughter."  But  later,  after  roles  in  "A  Face  In  The 
Crowd,"  "Anatomy  Of  A  Murder"  and  "The  Long  Hot 
Summer,"  he  became  to  be  known  as  "Lee  Remick's 
father."  And  proud  of  it. 

Remick's  was  sold  in  1 979.  Frank  Remick  died  at  73 
in  1983.  Lee  Remick  died  in  1991  at  55. 
Remick's  closed  its  doors  July  31.  1987. 
Sad  dates  for  Quincy.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


THIS  IS  AN  early  1920s  real  photo  postcard  view  of 
Wollaston  Beach  shoHin}>  the  yacht  clubs  in  the  distance. 
This  picture  was  taken  from  the  privately  owned  bath- 
houses that  were  on  the  site  of  today's  Beachcomber.  It 
w  as  a  destination  for  motorcycles  even  then.  Before  the 
first  seawall  was  built,  just  after  this  photo,  high  tides 
such  as  the  one  seen  here  left  little  beach  to  use,  and  on 
stormy  days  the  water  easily  came  across  the  road.  Note 
the  on-street  parking  arrangement.  The  bathhouses  and 
other  buildings  in  this  area  were  built  on  pilings  to  keep 
^them  above  the  water.  The  road  was  built  in  the  earlv 


19()()s  by  the  Metropolitan  Ccmmiission  as  part  of  a 
network  of  scenic  roads  around  Boston,  hut  also  to  cap 
a  sewer  pipe  under  it  that  runs  from  Squantum  to  Nut 
Island  at  the  end  of  Houghs  Neck.  One  hundred  years 
later,  there  are  still  some  remnants  of  the  post  and  rail 
fence  shown  along  here.  In  the  180()s,  the  marshes  that 
were  in  this  area  of  the  shoreline  were  the  site  of  Josiah 
Quincy's  salt-works.  To  contact  Tom  (lalvin,  e-mail

Revitalization  Plan  And  Planning 


It  would  be  a  nice  gesture 
if  The  Qiiincy  Sun  could 
dedicate  a  page  to  the  citi- 
zens of  Quincy's  opposition 
to  the  so-called  Revitaliza- 
tion of  it's  downtown  center, 
also  including  the  park  idea 
in  front  of  City  Hall. 

This  is  a  very  big  issue  to 
our  citizens,  and  u  ould  give 
them  a  chance  to  air  their 
views.  People,  here,  are  talk- 
ing about  this  issue,  and  that 
it's  not  in  the  public  interest 
to  suppress  their  opinions. 


How  else  are  we  going  to 
know  if  the  majority  of  citi- 
zens living  in  Quincy  feel  the 
same  way? 

Another  past  and  present 
issue  we  still  face  is  parking, 
as  Quincy  never  knew  the  car 
was  the  coming  thing,  and 
still  doesn't. 

I'm  not  saying  what  the 
little  lady  on  the  TV  ad. 
"Where's  the  beet'.'"  I'm  say- 
mg.  "Where's  the  parkmg .' ' 

Does  anyone  remember, 
as  I  do.  when  the  orieinal 


plan  for  downtown  Quincy 
was  to  bring  back  retail  busi- 
nesses. If  our  city  officials 
had  reallv  wanted  to  bring 
back  businesses,  in  the  fir^vt 
place.  the>  would  ha\  e  made 
more  parking  places  avail- 
able and  free. 

Ne.xt  time  you  whiz  by  on 
the  concourse  cut-t^tt 
through  dov\nto\\n  Quincv 
to  Southern  .Artery,  don't  tor- 
get  \o  look  quicklv.  at  the 
whistle  stop  you  passed  h\. 


and   say.   "Oh.   was   that 
Quincy  Center.'"

Pleased  About  Track 
At  Pageant  Field 


I  am  so  pleased  that  we 
will  finally  be  getting  a  track 
at  Pageant  Field. 

As  a  dog  lover,  I  can  un- 
derstand the  concern  of  the 
dog  walkers  who  use  the 
park.  As  much  as  I  love  dogs, 
however,  I  love  children 
even  more,  and  it  is  about 
time  the  kids  participating  in 
the  sport  have  a  regulation 
size  track  on  which  to  com- 
plete 

There  are  hundreds  of 


children  involved,  and  the 
city  has  already  wasted 
enough  time  on  this  issue.  A 
well  built  and  maintained 
track  will  not  be  an  eyesore, 
and  Quincy  Track  Club 
members  and  high  school 
students  will  have  use  of 
Pageant  Field,  just  as  the 
children  involved  in  other 
sports  now  have. 
Let's  build  it!

also  so  right  m  noting  that 
Adams  would  have  taken  a 
diplomatic  approach  to  the 
Iraq  situatum  rather  than 
Bush's  couboN  diploniacN 
You're  right  about  hou 
gung-ho  Bush  was  to  get  us 
into  war.  how  quick  he  v\as 
to  declare  "Mission  .Accom- 
plished," and  the  horrible 


death  toll  and  equalK  hor- 
rible number  ot'  wounded 
.md  Iraqi  ci\  ilian  deaths. 

I'm  glad  you  regret  \our

A  Thank- You  To  Tom  Koch 


The  other  day  I  received 
a  form  letter  stating,  "I'm 
sorry  I  missed  you."  I 
thought  "sure  another  politi- 
cian sitting  in  office  dictat- 
ing this." 

I  was  about  to  throw  it 
away  when  I  noticed  some 
handwriting  on  the  bottom. 
It  said,  "I  noticed  the  Marine 
flag  flying  with  Old  Glory, 


you  must  be  a  proud  veteran- 
thank  you  for  your  serv  ice." 

The  older  vse  get  the  more 
we  cherish  someone  remem- 
bering World  War  II  and 
thanking  us.  This  letter  is  in 
my  scrapbook  of  memones. 

Thank  you  Tom  Koch.

Fr.  Bill's  13th  Annual 
Food  Fest,  Auction  July  31 


Father  Bill's  Place  will 
host  its  13th  annual  Food 
Fest  &  Auction,  the  largest 
fund-raising  event  on  the 
South  Shore,  Tuesday,  July. 
31.  from  6  to  10  p. in  at  the 
Water  Works  in  Marina  Bay. 

Tickets  to  the  event  are 
$100  and  may  be  purchased 
a  t 

www.lathcrbillsplacc.orj» 
or  by  calling  the  agency's 
development  olTice  at  617- 
770-3314. 

The  Food  Fest  will  fea- 
ture the  Epicurean  efforts  of 
more  than  40  of  the  finest 
local  restaurants,  bakeries 
and  wine  distributors  in  the 
area. 

The  Auction  will  include 
a  guitar  autographed  by 
Jimmy  Buffet,  trips  for  two 
to  Sonoma,  Calif.,  and  Bea- 
ver Creek,  Colo.,  Red  Sox 
and  Patriots  tickets  and  rare 


sports  memorabilia. 

The  annual  event  is  spon- 
sored by  Hill,  Holliday, 
Connors,  Cosniopuh>s,  Inc.; 
William  (lallagher  Associ- 
ates, Jay  Cashnian.  Inc.; 
Keith  Construction  and  New 
Fngland  Realty  Clroup. 

Proceeds  from  the  Food 
Fest  &  Auction  will  directly 
benefit  individuals  and  fami- 
lies like  Karen,  a  cancer  sur- 
vivor and  her  18-year-oId 
son,  Andy. 

When  she  was  diagnosed 
with  cancer,  Karen  voluntar- 
ily left  her  job  of  15  years 
with  an  investment  company 
and  found  another  job  with 
a  trucking  company. 

The  trucking  company 
was  taken  over  by  another 
and  Karen  not  only  lost  that 
job  but  she  lost  her  home 
when  her  landlord  sold  the 
building  where  she  had  an 


apaiiment. 

Suddenly  homeless  and 
out  ol  work.  Karen  and.Anily 
were  referred  to  the  city  ol 
Quincy's  Commission  on  the 
Family's  two-year  transi- 
tional housing  program  for 
homeless  fanulies. 

With  only  a  few  months 
remaining  in  their  transi- 
tional housing  unit,  Karen 
and  her  son  were  referred  to 
Father  Bill's  Place,  where  an 
opening  was  found  in  one  of 
its  120  supportive  housing 
units. 

Next  week,  Karen  and 
Andy  will  move  into  an 
apartment  in  Quincy  where 
she  can  devote  time  to  recov- 
ering from  her  upcoming 
surgeries  rather  than  worry- 
ing about  a  home  of  her  own. 

It  was  the  funds  raised  at 
the  Food  Fest  &  Auction  that 
helped  make  that  possible.

his  proposed  plan  to  fight  the 
city's  drug  problems,  "a  true 
community  elTort"  is  also 
needed. 

"Where  there  is  a  will, 
there  is  a  way,"  Koch  said, 
adding  that  his  plan, 
announced  two  weeks  ago, 
for  beeted-up  enforcement 
and  a  new  leadership  role  by 
City  Hall  has  been  well 
received  to  date. 

"But  we  need  all  the  best 
that  our  city  has  to  offer  to 
tackle  this  issue.  We  need  to 
provide  the  tools  to  the  police, 
non-profit  groups,  and 
parents  struggling  with  this 
problem  every  day.  And  we 
need  the  Mayor's  office  to 
play  a  leading  role." 

Koch  said  that  recent 
studies  showing  a  troubling 
drug  abuse  rate  in  Quincy 
and  feedback  from  residents 
across  the  city  prompted  him 
to  propose  a  series  of 
initiatives  aimed  at  fighting 


the  drug  problem.  But  those 
plans  will  only  be  effective 
through  a  full  and  concerted 
effort  by  City  Hall  and  the 
community,  Koch  said. 

"City  Hall  needs  to  lead 
on  this  issue,  and  that's 
exactly  what  we  intend  to 
do,"  Koch  said.  "When  we 
are  elected,  we  will  have  a 
team  together  and  there  will 
be  no  doubt  that  City  Hall 
leads  that  team.  We  are  going 
to  take  a  stand  the  entire  city 
is  going  to  be  a  part  of  it." 

As  part  of  his  plan,  Koch 
proposed: 

•  Immediately  double  the 
size  of  the  five-person  Drug 
Unit  by  using  existing 
resources  and  by  giving  the 
police  the  flexibility  to  focus 
resources  to  critical  areas 

•  Increase  cooperation 
with  the  State  Police,  the 
MBTA  police,  and  federal 
agencies,  to  tap  resources  not 
currently  used  in  Quincy 

•  Expand  the  role  of  the 
Community  Police  Unit  to 


include  drug  unit  operations. 
In  addition  to  their  regular 
assignment,  community 
police  officers  will  regularly 
work  together  with  dclcctiNcs 
on  investigations,  pri>vKle 
information  and  help 
neighborhoods  and  families 
deal  with  the  aftermath  of 
drug  cases. 

•  Use  the  mayor's  office 
as  the  central  point  for  a  new 
partnership  with  schools, 
police,  non-profit  agencies 
and  hospitals  to  increase 
treatment,  support  and 
prevention  programs. 

•  Apply  for  grant  money, 
hold  regular  community 
forums,  and  work  with 
existing  groups,  such  as  the 
self-formed  "Parents  Helping 
Parents"  to  expand  outreach 
into  neighborhoods.

Puleo  Files  Nomination  Papers 
For  School  Committee 


School  Conrniittee  candi- 
date Nick  Puleo  filed  his 
nomination  papers  with  over 
400  signatures  in  support  of 
his  candidacy  last  Friday. 

Only  50  signatures  are 
required  but  he  said  he  plans 
to  collect  more  before  the 
July  31  deadline. 

"The  nomination  process 
is  a  great  chance  to  go  out 
and  listen  to  the  concerns  of 
parents,  teachers,  and  neigh- 
bors," Puleo  said.  "The  out- 
pouring of  support  allowed 
us  to  collect  many  more  sig- 
natures that  what  was  re- 
quired. It  sets  a  great  tone  for 
our  campaign.  I  really  be- 
lieve that  someone  interested 
in  public  office  should  al- 
ways go  above  and  beyond 
what's  expected  of  them." 

"At  this  point,  I  have  been 
campaigning  for  a  long  time- 
and  what  a  wonderful  time 
it  has  been,"  said  Puleo. 
"While  the  field  of  candi- 
dates has  changed,  the  origi- 
nal goal  has  remained  the 
same.  This  run  has  never 
been  about  an  "open  seat,' 
but  rather  about  bringing 
positive  change  to  our  school 
system." 

"As  the  only  public  bud- 
get professional  running  for 


school  committee,  I  know  I 
can  bring  a  new,  much- 
needed  perspective  to  our 
school  funding." 

Puleo  is  a  Senior  Budget 
Analyst  for  the  Senate  Com- 
mittee on  Ways  and  Means, 
and  is  charged  with  the  de- 
velopment and  oversight 
over  more  than  S3. 2  billion 
in  state  spending.  Dunng  his 
time  at  the  Committee,  he 
has  identified  millions  oi 
dollars  in  cost  sasings  and 
has  found  new  ways  to  bring 
federal  funding  into  the  state. 

"At  their  core,  many  of 
the  issues  facing  our  school 
district  revolve  around 
money.  With  the  experience 
and  knovv  ledge  from  ni\  pro- 
fessional  background.  I 
know  we  can  bnng  tremen- 
dous new  resources  to  our 
schools  at  little-or-no  cost  to 
the  taxpayer.  I  also  feel  that 
there  are  many  ways  to  im- 
prove our  current  funding 
structure." 

In  the  coming  weeks. 
Puleo  plans  to  put  forw  ard  a 
number  of  ways  in  which  the 
schools  can  maximize  rev  - 
enuc,  streamline  services. 
and  improve  the  quality  off 
education  for  Quincy's  chil- 
dren. 


"This  campaign  is  about 
improving  the  quality  of  our 
schools,  and  broadening  the 
dialogue,"  Puleo  said. 
"People  should  know  that 
their  voices  are  important, 
and  will  be  heard.  I  encour- 
age everyone  to  be  involved, 
and  to  contact  me  with  their 
ideas,  comments,  and  con- 
cerns." 

Those  wishing  to  share 
their  ideas  for  Quincy's 
schools  with  Puleo  should

Traffic  Study  Wanted 

Java  Java  Drive  Thru 
Gets  Temporary  Red  Light

riu"  l.iconse  Bi)aid  Tiies- 
d<i\  \()ted  toconliiuic  a  hear- 
ing: on  the  statiisi)!  Java  Java 
I)ri\  I-  riiru,  60  Qiiiiicy  Shore 
I)ii\c  alter  listening  to  a 
progress  report  Ironi  Atty. 
Carl  Johnson. 

Sieve  Heberl  first  eame 
bclbre  the  board  more  than 
two  years  ago  proposing  a 
drive  thru  ollering  coffee, 
donuts  and  muffins. 

Two  weeks  ago,  the  board 
said  instead  of  a  common 
victualer  license  Hebert 
should  apply  for  a  fast  food 
license,  since  no  one  would 
be  eating  on  the  premises. 

Health  Commissioner 
Drew  Scheele  said  there  was 


a  bank  at  the  site  where 
Hebert  wants  to  ha\  e  a  dri\  e- 
thru.  And  at  that  time,  the 
bank  did  not  open  until  ^) 
a.m. 

Scheele  said  residents 
who  live  in  condos  around 
the  site  would  not  appreciate 
loud  voices  coming  at  U  a.m. 
in  the  morning  yelling  "1 
want  eight  coffees  to  go." 

Johnson,  who  said  he  did 
not  represent  Hebert  at  the 
onset  told  the  board  that  he 
didn't  feel  as  though  fast 
food  was  within  the  Jurisdic- 
tion of  the  license  board. 

However,  Chairman  Jo- 
seph Shea  disputed  that  fact 
slating  that  the  original  pro- 


posal \\as  foi  a  common  vict- 
ualei  license. 

Jay  Duca.  director  ol 
inspeclional  services  said  the 
uhole  issue  is  traffic,  and 
suggested  that  an  indepen- 
dent traffic  sur\ey  should  be 
held. 

Although  Johnsons  re- 
port was  lengthy.  Police 
Chiel  Robert  Crowley's  mo- 
tion was  not. 

Crowley  made  the  motion 
to  continue  until  Aug.  14 
with  "no  more  meetings  af- 
ter that"  pertaining  to  Java 
Java,  and  asked  the 
solicitors  office  to  procure 
an  independent  person  for  a 
traffic  study. 


Mayor  To  Reconvene 
Recycling  Committee 


Mayor  William  Phclan 
has  asked  residents  inter- 
ested in  serving  on  the  City's 
Recycling  Commission  to 
submit  a  letter  of  interest  to 
the  DPW. 

The  Recycling  Commit- 
tee is  part  of  Phelan's  "Act 
Locally"  campaign  an- 
nounced earlier  this  year. 

"Act  Locally"  included 
the  State's  largest  Energy 
Conservation  program  under 
the  new  Energy  Savings 
Law,  the  reconvening  of  the 
Recycling  Committee,  a  new 
procurement  policy  on  en\  i- 
ronmenlally-friendly  prod- 
ucts, achie\  insi  "ereen"  sta- 


tus for  the  new  Quincy  High 
School,  and  exploring  re- 
newable energy  options  for 
Quincy. 

"1  encourage  Quincy  resi- 
dents that  have  the  time  and 
interest  to  participate  on  this 
important  committee  to  sub- 
mit a  letter  to  the  DPW,"  said 
Phelan.  "We  have  made  sig- 
nificant strides  in  the  area  of 
recycling,  but  we  can  always 
do  more.  The  committee  will 
help  explore  ideas  on  how  to 
better  promote  recycling  in 
our  city  and  encourage  mine 
residents  to  participate." 

Phelan  highlighted  that 
Quincy  recycled  }>''(  more 


material  last  year  than  the 
prior  year.  A  pilot  program 
and  curriculum  in  the  Quincy 
Public  Schools  was  also  very 
successful. 

"Recycling  is  good  for 
our  environment  and  good 
for  our  ta.xpayers."  Phelan 
said.  "It  reduces  our  waste 
disposal  costs  and  removes 
products  from  landfills.  I  en- 
courage people  to  participate 
as  much  as  possible." 

Residents  interested  in 
sening  can  send  a  letter  to: 
Fred  Happell.  Program  Man- 
ager. DPW.  c/o  55  Sea  Street,

OFFICER  SCOTT 
DOHERT^ 


A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Tuesday,  July  17,  at  appio.ximately  .^  a.m..  Officer 
Scott  Doherty.  on  the  walking  beat  in  Wollaston  Center, 
approached  the  7-11  Store  and  observed  two  teenage 
m.iles  sitting  on  the  curb  area  at  the  store. 

Sgt.  J. P.  Kelly  had  assigned  Officer  Doherty  and  Of- 
ficer Christopher  McDermott  to  patrol  the  area  on  fool. 
Ill  plain  clothes,  due  to  the 
recent  rash  of  breaks  into  au- 
tomobiles. Officer 
.McDermoll  entered  the  store 
,ind  radioed  Olficer  l)i>herty 
thai  he  w  as  going  to  confront 
the  two  males,  who  he  also 
belie\ed  were  runaways 
Uom  a  group  home  the  night 
be  lore. 

Officer  McDermott  ap- 
proached the  iwi)  males  and 
confirmed  that  they  were 
yesterday's  runawa\s.    He 

took  out  his  badge  and  identified  himself  as  a  Police  Of- 
ficer. Sgt.  Kelly,  Officer  Mike  Powers  and  Officer  Patrick 

Folan  anived  on  scene. 

The  males  stated  that  they 
were  both  15  years  old.  Of- 
ficer McDermott  saw  a  cup 
holder  from  a  vehicle  be- 
tween the  males  (suspects) 
full  of  change  and  asked 
them  where  it  came  from. 
One  of  the  suspects  said  that 
he  w  as  in  a  car  w  ith  a  friend 
who  was  speeding,  so  he 
told  his  friend  to  slow  dow  n 
just  as  a  police  officer  drove 
b\.  He  said  his  friend  gave 
him  the  cup  holder  lull  of  change  because  '"he  owed  me" 
for  keeping  him  out  of  trouble. 

The  officers  all  recognized  this  story  as  "ridiculous" 
and  had  the  suspects  stand  up  to  be  pat-frisked.  BcUh  sus- 
pects put  their  hands  in  their  pockets  immediately  and 
removed  them  as  directed. 

As  Officer  .McDermott  frisked  the  first  suspect,  he 
detected  a  large  amount  of  coins,  a  cell  phone  charger 
and  a  cell  phone  in  his  pants  pocket.  The  suspect  was 
asked  why  he  would  have  a  cell  phone  charger  if  he  was 
not  old  enough  to  drive  and  again,  the  suspect  said  that  a 
■friend"  gave  it  to  him. 

On  the  second  suspect.  Officers  found  a  pack  of  ciga- 
rettes, a  radio  faceplate  and  some  wires.  This  suspect 
also  relied  on  the  "friend"  story  when  asked  where  he 
obtained  these  items.  Communications  called  the  group 
home,  who  confirmed  that  the  suspects  were  runaways 
again.  Both  suspects  were  taken  into  custody  for  being 
runaways  and  for  "Receiving  Stolen  Property." 

During  a  thorough  search  prior  to  transport  to  the  sta- 
tion, another  faceplate  to  a  stereo,  music  CD's,  a  pack  of 
Kool  cigarettes  and  a  car  charger  were  found  on  the  sec- 
ond suspect.  The  first  suspect  also  had  a  bank  debit  card 
and  three  other  cell  phones.  After  being  given  Miranda 
Rights,  the  suspect  with  the  debit  card  was  asked  where 
he  got  it  and  he  responded,  "At  the  beach." 

Using  the  debit  card  name.  Officer  Powers  located  the 
victim's  address  on  Waterston  Avenue.  He  scanned  the 
car  and  saw  that  the  interior  was  in  disarray  and  there 
were  CD  holders  strewn  about  the  street. 

The  victim  was  contacted  and  came  out  to  speak  with 
the  Officer  She  confirmed  that  the  cup  holder  was  hers 
and  that  the  debit  card  was  also  her  property.  Another  car 
was  discovered  in  similar  condition  and  that  owner  was 
able  to  identify  CDs'  that  were  missing  that  were  found 
on  the  suspects.  A  few  hours  later,  a  victim  on  Sachem 
Street  called  the  station  to  report  that  his  car  had  been 
entered  and  his  cell  phone  was  missing.  Officer 
McDermott  advised  the  victim  that  he  had  recovered  his 
cell  phone  and  charger,  which  were  found  on  the  first 
suspect.  Nice  Work! 

In  this  case,  as  well  as  the  majority  of  car  breaks,  cars 
are  left  unlocked  and  the  victims  leave  valuables  inside. 
There  is  very  little  noise  made  opening  an  unlocked  car 
door  and  quickly  searching  through  it  for  unprotected 
valuables.

Phelan  Campaign  Volunteers 
Clean  Up  Squaw  Rock  Park 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
led  40  volunteers  in  a  com- 
munity clean-up  of  Squaw 
Rock  Park  in  Squantum  last 
Tuesday. 

"I  am  glad  that  so  many 
community-minded  folks 
have  joined  my  campaign 
and  we  are  using  this  re- 
source for  a  greater  benefit," 
said  Phelan.  "We  are  having 
fun  and  making  our  city  a 
better  place  to  live  in  the  pro- 
cess. 1  want  to  thank  all  of 
the  volunteers  that  made  our 
first  community  service 
project  of  the  year  such  a 
great  success." 

Volunteers  cleaned  debris 


and  widened  walking  paths 
throughout  the  1 7-acre  park. 

More  than  20  bags  of  lit- 
ter and  trimmings  were  re- 
moved as  part  of  the  project. 
Volunteer  Donna 

McGaughey  notes,  "I  never 
knew  this  beautiful  park  was 
here  and  I  was  glad  to  help 
clean  it  up.  I  hope  more 
people  get  to  enjoy  it  because 
of  our  work." 

The  Phelan  campaign  de- 
cided to  trade-in  two  sign- 
holdings  each  month  for 
community  service  projects 
in  the  city.  Squaw  R(Kk  park 
is  a  1 7-acre  wateriront  park 
at  the  end  of  Dorchester 


Street,  just  prior  to  the  en- 
trance to  Moon  and  Long  Is- 
lands. 

"We  will  continue  to  con- 
duct community  service 
projects  throughout  the  cam- 
paign," said  Phelan.  "It  may 
cost  us  some  visibility,  but 
we  can  use  our  energies  to 
help  people  and  make 
Quincy  better.  That's  what 
we  plan  on  doing  and  that's 
what  this  campaign  is  all 
about."

To  Move  English  Classes

said. 

Whatever  happens  even- 
tually to  the  Coddington 
School,  built  in  1909,  is 
anybody's  guess  but  chances 
are  good  it  will  not  be  re- 
placed by  condos  as  long  as 
it  is  on  the  National  Register 
of  Historic  Places. 

"They'd  be  hard-pressed 
to  tear  it  down,"  said  Dr.  Ed- 
ward Fitzgerald,  curator  of 
the  Quincy  Historical  Soci- 
ety. 

Santoro  said  the  new  high 
school  is  designed  in  the 
form  of  academic  academies 
that  will  foster  interdiscipli- 
nary partnerships  among 
subjects. 

"What  that  means  is  that 


we  will  learn  by  way  of  con- 
nections to  each  other,"  he 
.said. 

"In  the  real  world  we  do 
not  leave  our  homes  in  the 
morning  and  do  50  minutes 
of  Math  followed  by  50  min- 
utes of  English  and  so  on. 

"Real  world  experiences 
are  connected  and  we  will 
ask  our  teachers  to  partner  in 
instruction  and  become 
interdisciplined. 

For  example,  he  added, 
"our  Arts  and  Humanities 
Academy  will  house  our  En- 
glish, Social  Studies,  Foreign 
Language,  Visual  Arts  and 
Performing  Arts  Depart- 
ments. This  will  allow  teach- 
ers and  programs  to  inte- 
grate." 


This  means  that  the  edu- 
cational complex  on 
Coddington  Street  will  no 
longer  be  known  as  Quincy 
High  School  and  Center  for 
Technical  Training. 

It  will  be  Quincy  High 
School  with  an  East  and 
West  Campus,  and,  tempo- 
rarily, a  Coddington  Cam- 
pus. 

"For  those  not  familiar 
with  our  high  school,"  said 
Santoro,  "there  is  a  percep- 
tion that  we  are  two  schools 
and  students  only  cross  the 
bridge  for  technical  pro- 
grams or  that  we  are  two 
separate  populations. 

We  are  a  comprehensive 
high  school  enhanced  by  our 
connections  in  our  program 
of  studies.  We  are  one."

Siciliano  Trial  Opens 
In  Norfolk  Court 


The  trial  of  Quincy's 
former  deputy  director  of 
emergency  management 
Tony  Siciliano  on  child  rape 
charges  got  underway  slowly 
in  Norfolk  Superior  Court 
Monday. 

The  court  spent  the  first 
day  picking  a  jury  and  Pros- 
ecutor Courtney  Linnehan 
and  Defense  Attorney 
Francis  X.  Collins  devoted 
their  time  to  arguing  final 
pretrial  motions. 

Opening  remarks  took  up 
most  of  the  time  during  the 
Tuesday  session.  The  trial 
was  expected  to  last  the  re- 
mainder of  the  week 

Siciliano.  65.  who  was 
fired  from  his  emergency 
management  post  by  Mavor 
William  Phelan  in  ZOOZ,  is 
charged  with  two  counts  of 
statutory  rape  and  a  single 
count  of  indecent  assault  and 


battery,  both  of  a  child  un- 
der 14. 

He  is  accused  to  using  his 
position  in  emergency  man- 
agement to  further  sexual 
relationships  with  two  teen- 
age boys  who  had  been  re- 
cruited to  join  his  Commu- 


nity Emergency  Response 
Team  to  work  civic  events 
and  disasters. 

The  rapes  are  alleged  to 
have  occurred  between  1 995 
and  1998  when  the  two  boys 
were  13  and  16  years  old. 
They  are  now  2 1  and  25.

Give  Oil  Stains 
the  Brush  Off 

Q,  In  a  recent  column,  a 
•  reader  wrote  in 
about  an  oil  leak  on  the 
floor  of  his  shed.  My  expe- 
rience was  with  a  rather 
large  stain  from  a  1984 
Ford  Ranger  on  my  garage 
floor.  I  used  the  old-fash- 
ioned floor  dry  found  at 
the  auto  store.  Sprinkle  it 
on  liberally,  and  let  it  set 
for  a  wed(  or  two;  it  will 
suck  the  oil  right  out  of  the 
cement  I  have  no  trouble 
with  stains  on  my  garage 
floor  since  finding  that 
solution. 

The  floor  dry  is  the  blue 
day,  chunky  style.  I  don't 
know  if  the  newfangled 
'iine-cut"  stuff  works  or 
not.  Hope  this  works!  — 
Kevin  N.,  via  e-mail 

A,  Thanks,  Kevin! 

•  Floor-E>ry,  as  Kevin 
said  above,  can  be  found  at 
auto  parts  stores  and  equip- 
ment suppliers.  It's  a  clay- 
based  absort)ent  sold  in  bags 
that  can  be  sprinkled  over  oil 
stains  and  swept  away. 


Q.The  way  I  clean  oil 
•  drips  and  stains  on 
concrete  is  to  saturate  the 
stain  with  brake  cleaner, 
then  cover  it  with  kitty  lit- 
ter or  a  product  called  Oil- 
Dry.  I  let  it  sit  overnight, 
then  sweep  it  up.  General- 
ly, the  stain  is  all  gone  with 
the  first  application.  For  a 
persistent  stain,  I  repeat 
the  process  with  a  vigorous 
brooming  of  the  absorbent 
material.  —  Bob  C,  Col- 
orado Springs,  Colo. 

A  Good  stuff!  Thanks  to 
•  my  readers  for  look- 
ing out  for  each  other.  Oil- 
Dry  (or  Oil-Dri)  is  a  spill 
absorption  product,  mostly 
sold  as  absorbent  pads, 
found  at  auto  stores  and 
equipment  suppliers.

5  p.m.  at  Pageant  Field. 

"Everybody  is  invited: 
Our  great  group  of  volun-

to  know  more  about  the  cam- 
paign," Koch  said. 

"We're  out  on  the  street 
every  day  meeting  as  many

hamburgers  and  hot  dogs  at 
the  picnic  pavilion  at  Pag-

Quincy  Bay,"  Kt>ch  said. 

"I  had  the  honor  of  being 
caretaker  of  this  wonderful 
park  for  1 2  years,  and  1  can 
say  without  a  doubt  there  is 
no  better  place  to  hold  a  com- 
munity event  than  Pageant 
Field,"  Koch  said.  "I  am 
looking  forward  to  meeting 
a  lot  of  new  people  and  their

about  our  plans  to  brmg  more 
open,  responsive  and  re- 
spectful leadership  to  cit\ 
hall." 

Koch  added.  "It's  going 
to  be  a  great  night  and  a  great 
opportunity  for  people  not 
only  to  find  out  more  about 
the  campaign,  but  alsi>  to 
meet  a  lot  of  great  commu- 
nity leaders  and  families  who 
are  working  hard  for  the 
campaign.  I  could  not  be 
more  proud  of  the  group  we 
have  assembled  from  every 
neighborhood  in  the  city,  and 
we  are  going  to  continue  to 
build  it."

PEN  PALS.  Robert  Bennett,  L^,  an  eighth  grade  student  at  Atlantic  Middle  School,  nnally  met 
his  longtime  correspondent,  Lt.  General  Peter  Chiarelli  ( left ),  w  hen  the  general  vi.sited  him  at  the 
Quincy  school  with  his  aide.  Major  Steven  Smith. 

The  General  And 
The  Middle  Schooler 


For  a  writing  project,  the 
kids  in  the  eighth  grade  at  At- 
lantic Middle  School  had  to 
compose  letters  of  concern 
and  compliment,  so  Robert 
Bennett,  13,  turned  to  the 
Internet  for  ideas. 

He  found  an  article  by  Lt. 
General  Peter  W.  Chiarelli, 
commander  of  Multi  Na- 
tional Forces  in  Iraq,  describ- 
ing his  concept  of  "rebuild- 
ing more  and  shooting  less" 
m  that  Middle  Eastern  land. 

He  w  rote  a  letter  to  Gen- 
eral Chiarelli  and.  to  his  sur- 
prise, the  general  called  him 


back  on  the  telephone  all  the 
way  from  Iraq.  Soon,  the 
middle  school  student  and 
the  three  star  general,  were 
communicating  by  satellite. 

Their  correspondence 
continued  after  General 
Chiarelli  was  transferred  to 
a  new  post  as  senior  military 
assistant  to  the  Secretary  of 
Defense  in  Washington, 

Their  long  distance 
friendship  culminated  in  a 
special  trip  by  General 
Chiarelli  and  his  aide.  Major 
Ste\en  Smith,  to  visit  his 
young  fnend  in  Quincy. 


After  meeting  privately 
with  Robert  and  his  family, 
the  general  and  the  major 
made  a  special  presentation 
of  reconstruction  efforts  by 
the  Multi  National  Forces  in 
Iraq  at  Atlantic  Middle 
School. 

Robert  says  he  has 
learned  a  valuable  lesson 
from  his  writing  project  — 
that  the  power  of  the  written 
word  can  influence  and 
change  someone's  life, 
thanks  to  a  unique  friendship 
w  ith  a  three-star  iieneral.

Tips  On  Managing  Asthma 


Top  10  Weight  Loss 
Tips  For  Teens 


(NAPS)  -  For  the  one  in 
15  Americans  living  with 
asthma,  the  key  to  living  well 
is  managing  the  disease,  says 
the  National  Consumers 
League  (NC'L),  the  nation's 
oldest  consumer  advocacy 
organization.  Results  ol  a 
survey,  commissioned  by  the 
NCL  and  conducted  by 
Harris  Interactive,  show  that 
asthma  patients  often  iire  not 
choosmg  an  informed  and 
proactive  approach  to  their 
disea.se. 

According  to  the  NCL 
survey,  one  in  si,\  adult 
sulterers  (17  percent)  does 
not  have  a  treatment  plan  lor 
his  or  her  asthma.  And  many 
people  with  asthma  ieel  alone 
or  anxious  about  their 
condition,  making  partnering 
with  their  health  care 
provuler       even       more 


important. 

Asthma  sullerers  should 
sit  down  with  their  health 
care  provider  to  make  a 
treatment  plan,  which  should 
include  information  on  what 
they  should  do  when  asthma 
symptoms  begin. 

It's  also  important  for 
sufferers  to  learn  about  their 
asthma  medications- what 
they  are,  what  they  should  do 
and  when  they  should  be 
taken.  According  to  the  NCL 
survey,  .^X  percent,  about  four 
and  ten  adult  sufferers,  do 
no!  understand  asthma 
medication  categories.  And 
some  misuse  their 
meilicalions-taking  more  or 
less  than  prescribed  by  their 
doctor.  Among  survey 
respondents  who  reported 
taking  more  than  the 
indicated  dose  of  their  inhaler

medication,  21  percent  of 
them  reported  not  reading 
their  medication's 

instructions. 

Asthma  sufferers  should 
monitor  their  asthma  by 
keeping  an  asthma  diary  of 
symptoms  and  treatments  and 
see  their  health  care  provider 
at  least  once  a  year.  They 
should  work  with  their  health 
care  provider  to  find  the 
things  that  trigger  their 
asthma  flare-ups.  Triggers 
may  include  dust  mites,  head 
colds,  tobacco  smoke,  dry  air, 
exercise  and  certain 
ingredients  in  foods. 

The  nc.\t  step  is  to  make 
lifestyle  changes  to  reduce 
the  occurrence,  intensity  or 
duration  of  asthma  triggers. 
The  NCL  survey  found  that 
most  asthma  patients  who 
made  at  least  one  lifestyle 
change  reported  that  their 
asthma  improved.  Yet,  42 
percent  of  the  survey 
respondents  reported  that 
they  have  received  little  or 
no  information  at  all  about 
lifestyle  changes  that  could 
impact  their  asthma 
condition. 

When  asthma  sufferers 
partner  with  a  health  care 
provider,  follow  a  treatment 
plan  and  monitor  their 
condition,  their  asthma  will 
be  easier  to  control  and  will 
likely  result  in  fewer  and  less 
severe  asthma  flare-ups. 

NCL's  brochure,  "Live 
Well  with  Asthma,"  and  Web 
site,  www. nclnet.org/ 
asthma,  provide  more

(NAPS)  -  Although 
according  to  the  American 
Obesity  Association,  30.4 
percent  of  children  ages  12 
to  19  are  considered 
overweight,  1 5.5  percent  arc 
classified  as  obe.se  and  the 
prevalence  of  obesity  within 
this  age  group  has  more  than 
doubled  over  the  past  25 
years,  there  is  hope. 

"The  good  news  is  that 
adolescents  can  achieve  a 
healthy  weight  by  making 
simple  lifestyle  changes," 
says  LisaTalamini,  RD-vice 
president,  research  and 
program  innovation  for  Jenny 
Craig,  Inc.  "And  if  they 
maintain  these  positive  eating 
and  exercise  behaviors  as 
adults,  they  can  avoid 
developing  high  blood 
pressure  and  other  obesity- 
related  medical  conditions." 

Here  are  some  of 
Talamini' s  top  tips  for  teens: 

L  Plan  to  be  active 
every  day.  Enjoy  fun 
activities  with  friends  such 
as  volleyball,  dancing,  tennis 
and  biking.  A  day  of  shopping 
at  the  mall  can  also  bum 
calories. 

2.  When  you  eat  out 
with  friends,  use  the  time 
to  get  filled  in  on  each 
other's  news,  without 
"filling  out"  on  food  you  may 
not  need. 

3.  Watch  your 
protein  sizes  and  try  to 
make  lower-fat/lower- 
calorie  selections.  At  a  fast- 
food  restaurant,  pair  a  small 
burger  with  a  veggie-packed 
side  salad  and  lightly  drizzle 
fat-free  or  reduced-fat 
dressing  on  top. 

4.  Get  your  groove 
on    (and    get    a    great

and  dance  to  your  favorite 
iPod  tunes. 

5.  Ask  your  parents 
to  stock  your  refrigerator 
with  ready-to-eat  fruits, 
salads  and  raw  veggies. 
Sliced  carrots,  celery  and 
green  peppers  are  delicious 
when  dipped  lightly  in  fat- 
free  dip,  salsa  or  low-fat 
humus.  Replace  family-size 
bags  of  chips  or  crackers  with 
100-calorie  snack  bags  for 
in.stant  portion  control. 

6.  Trade  calorie-rich 
sports  drinks,  sugary  juice 
drinks  and  sodas  for  zero- 
calorie  flavored  waters  and 
diet  sodas. 

7.  Avoid  the 
temptation  to  look  like  a 
fashion  model  or  popular 
actresses  who  may  be  at 


unrealistic  body  weights. 

Find  a  healthy  weight  range 
that  works  for  you  and 
celebrate  the  unique, 
beautiful  body  that  you  have. 

8.  Eat  "across  the 
rainbow"  of  colorful  fruits 
and  vegetables  for  a  wide 
variety  of  health-enhancing 
nutrients. 

9.  Small  changes  can 
reap  big  results.  If  you  want 
to  eat  100  fewer  calories 
every  day,  you  could  lose  10 
pounds  in  a  year. 

10.  Don't  think  of 
what  you're  doing  as 
"dieting."  Instead,  view  it  as 
creating  positive  eating  and 
exercise  behaviors  that  can 
help  you  develop  a  healthier, 
happier  lifestyle.

Crunching  Into 
Oblivion 

Q.My  gym  offers  15- 
•  minute  abdominal 
Classes.  I  try  to  attend  at 
least  three  of  these  classes 
a  week,  and  definitely  feel 
my  abs  burning  during 
class;  however,  I  have  not 
seen  much  of  a  difTerence 
in  my  abdominal  area  flat- 
tening. Are  these  classes  a 
waste  of  time,  or  coidd  I  be 
doing  something  wrong? 

A,  Abdominal  classes 
•  have  become  popular 
in  many  fitness  facilities. 
The  typical  class  consists  of 
an  instructor  taking  a  group 
through  15  to  20  minutes  of 
varying  abdominal  exercis- 
es. Unfortunately,  the  popu- 
larity of  these  classes  has 
many  people  crunching 
themselves  into  disappoint- 
ment. 

The  purpose  of  abdominal 
classes  should  be  to  focus  on 
increasing  the  stability  and 
strength  of  the  core  muscles 
(abdominal,  back,  hips),  not 
to  develop  a  "six  pack."  The 
idea  of  crunching  yourself 
into  oblivion  to  flatten  your 
stomach  has  attracted  many 
f)eopIe  to  abdominal  classes 

—  however,  abdominal 
exercises  alone  will  not  sUm 
your  middle.  Since  we  can- 
not actually  "flatten"  our 
abdominals,  our  goal  is  to 
lower  our  body-fat  percent- 
age, which  will  decrease  the 
amount  of  fat  covering  the 
abdominal  muscles. 

Before  attending  your  first 
abdommal  class.  I  recom- 
mend understanding  w  hal  to 
expect  from  the  class,  ^'our 
goal  should  be  tt)  increase 
core  strengtli  and  stability 

—  not  to  experience  sore- 
ness for  the  next  two  days. 
Avoid  gauging  how'  well  the 
class  was  taugjit  by  how 
"hard"  the  exerei.ses  were  or 
bv  how  much  of  a  bum  vou 


felt  in  your  abdominal  mus- 
cles. With  each  class  com- 
pleted, you  should  feel  like 
you  have  more  control, 
strength  and  stability  within 
your  back,  abdominal  mus- 
cles and  hips.  This  should  be 
used  to  determine  the  suc- 
cess of  each  class.  Focus  on 
quality,  not  quantity. 

To  get  the  best  results  from 
abdominal  classes  be  sure 
you  know  how  to  correctly 
perform  each  exercise. 
Many  participants  use  the 
wrong  techniques  when 
completing  abdominal  exer- 
cises and  repeat  these  poor 
techniques  repetition  after 
repetition,  class  after  class. 
Straining  the  muscles  of 
your  neck  and  arching  your 
lower  back  while  complet- 
ing abdominal  exercises  are 
one  example  of  what  should 
be  avoided,  as  this  could 
cause  not  just  discomfort  but 
injury  if  repeated. 

Although  group  classes 
tend  to  encourage  partici- 
pants to  keep  up  with  their 
neighbors,  go  at  your  own 
pace.  Modify  exercises  that 
may  be  too  advanced,  and 
only  progress  to  a  more  dif- 
ficult exercise  once  you  have 
mastered  the  basic  form.  At 
the  beginning  of  class,  tell 
the  instmctor  about  any 
medical  conditions  that  may 
need  a  safer  version  to  be 
demonstrated.  The  instruc- 
tor should  be  able  to  accom- 
modate your  needs. 

Remember  to  make  your 
abdominal  class  part  of  a 
balanced  workout  routine 
that  includes  cardiovascular 
and  strength  training,  part- 
nered with  healthy  nutririon- 
ai  liabiLs.  Consistent  exer- 
cise, proper  nutrition  and 
genetics  w  ill  help  you  reach 
your  goal  of  lowering  your 
body  fat  around  your 
abdomen,  giving  the  appear- 
ance of  "flatter  abs."

Quincy  Advances  In 
Playoffs,  Faces  Brockton 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  Quincy  Post  95 
American  Legion  baseball 
team  is  in  the  process  of 
rewriting  their  history  book. 

The  team  scored  a  2-1 
series  win  over  Foxboro  Post 
93  in  the  first  round  of  the 
legion  playoffs  after  losing 
Game  One,  5-3.  Post  95  won 
Game  2, 7-3,  and  finished  off 
Foxboro  on  the  road  in  Game 
3,  6-5.  With  their  first  round 
win,  Quincy  advances  to  the 
American  Legion  regional 
tournament,  and  will  play 
against  District  lONo.  1  seed 
Brockton  Post  35. 

Quincy  hosted  Brockton 
at  Adams  Field  Wednesday 
at  5  p.m.  The  series  shifted  to 
Brockton  Thursday.  Game  3 
if  necessary  would  also  be  in 
Brockton  Friday. 

"What  a  series  for  our 
team,"  said  athletic  officer 
Lenny  Seit/.  "We  really 
battled  back  after  dropping 
the  first  game  of  series  on  the 
road.  I  can  not  say  enough 
about  our  players,  our 
coaching  staff  and  our  fans. 
The  kids  really  bore  down 
and  got  the  job  done." 

With  their  first  round 
series  win.  Post  95  entered 
uncharted  teiritorv  The  team 
finished  last  season  wiih  a  2- 
1(S  record,  but  changes  that 
were  made  over  the  oii- 
sea.son  and  the  c.\pcriencc 
that  was  gained  by  its  roster 
helped  to  propel  the  team  to  a 
place  they  ha\cnoi  been  to  in 
decades. 

"We  at  the  Post  lia\  c  gone 
back  into  our  hisioiy  books 
to  try  to  find  out  when  the 
last  time  one  o\'  nur  teams 
have  advanced  this  far  in  the 
playoffs."  added  Siet/.  "It  has 
been  tough  to  find.  You  need 
to  go  back  20  to  30  years  to 
find  a  team  from  Post  95  that 
had  made  it  pa.st  the  first 
round.  This  year's  team  is 
rewriting  Post  95  baseball 
history." 

In  the  third  and  deciding 
game.  Post  95  got  an  early 
jump  on  Foxboio.  Number 


LEGION  BASEBALL 


one  and  number  two  hitters. 
Mike  Leone  and  Mike  LeBel, 
both  scored  runs  in  the  first 
inning  to  stake  staring  pitcher 
Scott  Worwick  to  an  early 
lead. 

Worwick  went  the 
distance,  allowing  three 
earned  runs  while  strikinti  ou\ 
two  batters  toeam  the  victory. 

Quincy  Post  95  trailed 
Foxboro  5-4  entering  the  top 
of  the  se\  enth.  but  Leone  and 
LeBel,  both  reached  base. 
Post  95  catcher  Tom  Conley 
(2-for-3.  RBI.  SB)  knocked 
in  Leone  to  knot  the  score  at 
5-5.  and  Mike  Jay  followed 
with  a  RBI  single  that  scored 
LeBel  to  give  Quincy  and 
Worwick  a  6-5  lead  heading 
into  the  bottom  of  the  frame. 

Worwick,  with  the  help 
of  a  line-drive  double  play, 
closed  the  door  on  Foxboro, 
and  Post  95  held  on  for  the  6- 
5  win. 

"Scotty  was  fabulou.-.  in 
Game  Three,"  said  Siet/.  "I 
don't  think  anybody  thought 
he  would  be  able  to  go  the 
whole  game,  but  he  told 
manager  Dan  Sweeney  that 
he  wanted  to  finish  what  he 
had  started.  By  the  seventh 
inning  he  was  pitchuig  on 
adrenaline,  but  he  got  the  job 
dt>ne.  and  in  the  process  he 
saved  our  pitching  staff  for 
the  next  round." 

Post  95  earned  the  right  to 
play  a  Game  Three  after  a  7- 
3  victorN  on  Saturday 
afternoitn  at  .Adams  Field. 
Jared  Kenney  hurled  a  se\  en- 
innmg  masteipiece,  allow  mi' 
three  runs  on  just  eight  hits 
while  striking  out  six  batters. 

Leone(3-W4.  SB.  RBI. 
run).  LeBel  (3-for-4.  RBI. 
run).  John  Alexander  (2-for- 
3.  three  RBI)  and  Jay  Lewis 
(2-for-3.  SB)  all  contributed 
on  offense. 

"Kenney  was  the  key  for 
us  in  this  game,"  said  Siet/, 
"With  the  job  that  he  did  and 
the  job  that  Scotty  did,  our 


pitching  staff  should  be  rested 
and  ready  to  go  against 
Brockton." 

Post  95  dropped  the 
opening  game  on  the  road 
against  Foxboro  5-3. 

The  games  in  the  regional 
playoffs,  which  began  last 
night  (Wed.),  switch  from 
se\en  inning  affairs  to  nine 
inning  games,  and  because 
of  the  work  of  its  stalling 
pitchers  in  the  first  round, 
the  team  enters  the  regional 
series  with  its  full  pitching 
arsenal  intact. 

"Brockton  is  a  perennial 
Legion  powerhouse,  but  we 
have  shown  this  season  that 
we  can  play  with  anyone," 
Seit/  added.  "Our  ability  to 
hit  up  and  down  the  lineup, 
our  skill  on  defense  and  our 
speed,  and  now  our  rested 
pitching  staff  gives  us  the 
confidence  that  this  magical 
season  is  far  from  over." 

It  was  not  that  long  ago 
that  Quincy  Post  95  came  to 
a  cros.sroads  as  to  which  way. 
up  or  down,  the  team  would 
head.  The  addition  ol 
Sweenc}  and  his  staff  have 
paid  dixidends,  as  has  the 
play  of  the  entire  rosier,  but 
Siet/  said  it  would  be  remiss 
to  not  look  back  fi\e  years 
ago. 

"An>  success  that  v\  e  Iku  e 
enjtwed  as  a  team,  he  il  ttu- 
players,  coaches,  fans,  and 
m\self  as  athletic  officer

years.  Mark  Jaehnig.  now  the 
city's  Park  Gommissioner. 
really  sa\ed  this  program. 
The  work  he  did  for  us  has 
helped  set  in  nn>tion  the 
success  we  are  having  this 
season. 

"We  have  been  building 
trom  the  ground  up  and  the 
results  are  coming  quickly, 
Brockton  will  be  a  challenge, 
but  this  team  is  special  and  in 
baseball  anything  can 
happen."

open  to  the  air  In  fact,  it  was  not 
until  1 925  that  the  sale  of  closed 
cars  exceeded  open  ones.  Once 
drivers  became  accustomed  to 
the  draft-free  secure  feeling  of  a 
closed  cabin,  however,  the  sales 
of  convertibles  dropped  precipi- 
tously. Convertibles  lost  market 
share,  but  they  never  fully  lost 
their  appeal  Not  only  were  they 
perceived  to  be  more  adventur- 
ous, sporty,  and  sexy,  convert- 
ibles were,  and  continue  to  be. 
more  valuable  as  collectibles.  Still, 
convertibles  hit  a  major  stumbling 
block  during  the  1970s  as  moon 
sun  roofs  ana  the  oil  crisis  con- 
spired to  drive  convertibles  from 
domestic  production.  The  good 
news  of  course,  is  that  convert- 
ibles are  back  with  a  vengeance, 
spearheaded  by  folding  hardtops. 


As  convertibles  resurge  in 
popularity  the  consumer  finds 
themselves  with  many  more 
choices.  At  LEO  &  WALT'S

bership  here  and  I'm  glad  I 
did  because  they're  all  very 
friendly  people,  everybody 
helps  each  other,"  he  said. 

a\s  for  Elizabeth  Stacy,  it 
was  her  third  consecutive 
Msit  to  the  Lipton  Tea  Re- 
gatta. 

Her  daughter,  Dayren, 
competed  in  the  Optimist 
Red  Fleet. 

Originally  from  Toronto, 
Canada,  Elizabeth  and  her 
husband,  John,  are  longtime 
sailors  and  moved  to 
Rockport,  Mass.,  with 
Dayren,  1 3,  about  nine  years 
ago. 

Elizabeth  says  there  is 
something  special  about  the 
sailing  community. 

"When  we  go  to  any  type 
of  a  club  -  golf  is  a  good  ex- 
ample - 1  don't  golf,  but  I've 
been  to  the  situation.  When 
you  get  onto  the  green, 
people  always  want  to  know 
what  you  do.  Somehi^w  work 
creeps  in  and  then  that  sets 
the  tone  for  the  nine  holes, 
or  whatever  you're  going  to 
do,"  she  says.  "The  sailing 
community  is  different.  They 
don't  care  what  you  do.  They 
don't  care  if  you're  a  neuro- 
surgeon. All  you  talk  about 
is  sailing  and  they  don't  care 
about  your  financial  back- 
ground. It's  sailing  -  it's  to- 
tally different." 

As  for  Dayren.  she  was 
just  glad  to  get  out  on  the 
open  sea. 

"I  did  actually  pretty  w  ell. 
The  first  race  1  didn't  know 
where  the  mark  was.  Then, 
the  other  races,  1  came  in 
iTiid-fleet.  And  then  the  last 
race  1  came  in  fourth."  she 
said  on  Saturday.  "1  enjoyed 
the  Regatta  and  1  look  for- 
ward to  coming  here  all  the 
time. 

"I  also  like  tea  we  get 
here."  she  said  with  an  ador- 
able smile. 

Inside  the  clubhouse  there 
was  a  seemingly  endless  sup- 
ply of  free  bottled  Lipton 
Green  Tea  and  White  Tea. 

The  Lipton  Cup  was  do- 
nated to  what  is  now  the 
Massachusetts  Boating  and 
Yachting  Clubs  Association 
by  Lipton  in  1929.  When 
asked  to  donate  a  trophy,  "he 
said  he'd  be  dehghted  to," 
McGilvray  explained. 


Lipton  was  a  brilliant 
sailor.  He  even  came  close  to 
winning  the  Americas  Cup 
five  times  with  boats  named 
Shamrock  I  to  Shamrock  V. 

With  no  ail  service  in 
lho.se  days,  he  shipped  it  to 
America  right  away  and  the 
first  Regatta  was  held 
months  later, 

McGilvray  and  friends 
are  making  sure  to  keep  Sir 
Lipton's  endearing  spirit 
alive  and  they  all  agree  they 
will  do  then  best  to  continue 
to  hold  the  annual  Regatta 
that  has  so  successfully 
joined  sailors  from  around 
the  globe. 

The  first-place  finishers 
of  each  class  won  the  honor 
of  having  their  names  in- 
scribed on  the  base  of  the 
Lipton  Cup.  This  year,  the 
lucky  sailors  were  Tate  Man- 
ning and  Nate  Henderson 
from  Hull  in  the  National  IDs 
Blue  Fleet,  from  Jt)seph 
Meola  w  ith  Matt  Delahanty 
as  crew  in  the  National  10s 
White  Fleet,  from 
Marblehead  Brian  Drumm 
in  the  class  of  fsed.  White, 
and  Blue  Op'imists,  from 
Chelsmford,  Barry  .Moore 
with  J  J  Mo(irt'  as  ciew  in  the 
.Multihull,  fioni  Quincy,  Ted 
Randall  in  the  Huslter.  from 
Abington.  Sean  Kane  with 
Rob  Taylor  and  Denis  Bell  as 
crew  in  the  Fhuntlerbird, 
from  Wintlirop.  .Mike  CJahan 
in  the  Rhodes  19,  from 
Hinghain.  .-'.hhoit  Cowen 
and  Thomas  Kiivey  as  crew 
in  the  Club  420.  from  Stam- 
ford, CT..  Bcii  L.eihowitz  in 
the  Laser,  and,  from  Sioux 
City,  LA..  Chluc  Palmer  in 
the  Laser  Radial.  Palmer  was 
also  the  Women's  New  En- 
gland Radia!  Champion. 

Other  Quincy  residents 
who  competed  tor  the  Cup 
included:  Kennedy  Hannon, 
Abigail  Ames,  and  Devin 
O'Brien  in  the  Optimist 
White  Fleet.  Reid  Lily  and

I  Stars 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  You're  wise  to  let  your 
Arian  skepticism  question  a 
former  adversary's  request  to 
let  bygones  be  bygones. 
Tune  will  tell  if  he  or  she  is 
trying  to  pull  the  wool  over 
the  Lamb's  eyes. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Congratulations.  Your 
hard  work  soon  pays  off  with 
some  well-deserved  recogni- 
tion. Meanwhile,  that  impwr- 
tant  personal  relationship 
needs  more  attention  from 
you. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  That  new  person  in  your 
life  seems  trustworthy,  but 
don't  turn  him  or  her  into  a 
confidante  just  yet.  Remem- 
ber: The  secret  you  dont 
reveal  is  the  one  you  won't 
lose  sleep  over. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Your  kindness  makes  a 
difference  in  someone's  hfe. 
But  by  week's  end,  a  touch  of 
Cancerian  envy  could  create 
a  problem  with  a  colleague. 
Take  care  to  keep  it  under 
control. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  new  spurt  of  energy  sends 
you  roaring  back  into  that 
challenging  work  situation. 
But  be  careful  not  to  overdo 
it,  or  your  sizzle  could  fizzle 
before  your  task  is  complet- 
ed. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Your  practical 
sense  helps  you  see  the  logic 
of  being  a  bit  more  flexible 
with  a  workplace  colleague. 
But  you  still  have  a  ways  to 
go  before  there's  a  true  meet- 
ing of  the  minds. 


LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  A  surprise  situa- 
tion could  cause  you  to  spend 
more  money  than  you  feel 
you  can  afford.  But  careful 
budget  adjustments  will  help. 
Your  fiscal  picture  soon 
brightens. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  That  decision 
you  made  might  still  have  its 
detractors,  but  your  support- 
ers are  growing.  Meanwhile, 
your  personal  life  takes  on 
some  welcome  new  develop- 
ments. 

SACilTTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Mat- 
ters of  the  mind  intrigue  the 
sage  Sagittarian  through 
week's  end.  By  then,  you 
should  feel  more  than  ready 
to  make  room  for  pursuits  of 
the  heart. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  The  canny 
Capricorn  can  offer  good 
coun.sel  to  others.  But  how 
about  taking  some  advice 
yourself  from  a  close  friend 
or  family  member  who  is 
able  and  ready  to  help? 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  A  new  work- 
place opportimity  offers  a 
variety  of  challenges  that  you 
might  find  intriguing.  Best 
advice:  Take  things  one  step 
at  a  time  so  that  you  don't 
feel  overwhelmed. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  A  bid  to  revive  a 
relationship  that  ended  on  a 
bitter  note  needs  to  be  care- 
fully thought  out  before  you 
can  even  begin  to  consider 
plunging  into  a  new  emotion- 
al commitment. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
enjoy  being  with  people,  and 
people  love  being  with  you. 
You  would  probably  do  very 
well  in  politics.

An  old  Spanish  Proverb  states  . . . 
He  is  always  right  who  suspects  that 
he  makes  mistakes. 

Everyone  "goofs"  once  in  a  while. 
Some  people  seem  to  "gooF'  more 
than  others.  They  make  the  same 
mistakes  over  and  over  again  and 
never  seem  to  learn  from  them.  Others  learn  from  their 
errors.  They  grow  from  their  mistakes.  They  know  it  doesn  *t 
do  any  good  to  brood  over  their  mistakes.  The  past  is  past 
It's  time  to  forge  ahead  with  what  is  to  be  done. 

Fortunate,  indeed,  is  the  person  who  has  learned  to  take 
his  mistakes  as  well  as  his  accomplishments.  Fortunate,  too, 
is  the  person  who  can  admit  his  mistakes  with  a  sense  of 
humor  and  with  wisdom. . . 

We  like  this  saying  by  Hugh  White . . .  "When  you  make 
a  mistake,  don't  look  back  at  it  long.  Take  the  reason  of  the 
thing  into  your  mind,  and  then  look  forward.  Mistakes  are 
lessons  of  wisdom.  The  past  cannot  be  changed.  The  future 
is  yet  in  your  power."

Councillor  McNamee  Cleans  Up  'Kettle  Pot' 


WARD  6  C  ()11N(  ILI.OR  Brian  McNamee 
(above  with  paint  roller)  participated  in  the 
city's  recent  ("leaner,  (Ireener  cleanup  by 
picking  up  a  paint  roller  and  painting  over 
grairiti  on  the  so-called  ''Kettle  I'ot"  off  the 
shore  of  Squantuni.  The  structure,  which  for- 
merly served  as  a  gas  vent  from  the  Boston 
sewer  system  on  Moon  Island,  is  a  notorious 
target  for  {graffiti  and  vandalism,  ''(iraffiti 
has  become  an  issue  of  great  concern  to  me 
in  recent  months,"  McNamee  said.  "This  type 
of  vandalism  decreases  property  value,  and 
lowers  the  overall  look  and  vibrancy  of  our 
neighborhoods."  In  response  to  the  rise  of 
spray-paint  vandalism.  McNamee,  along  with 
the  city's  Statehouse  delegati(m,  have  filed 
anti-grafTiti  legislation  which  would  make  it 
illegal  for  minors  to  purchase  or  possess  spray 
paint  with  the  intent  to  create  graffiti. 
McNamee  suid  he  hopes  the  passage  of  this 
legislation  will  decrease  the  occurrence  of 
such  vandalism.  "In  the  meantime,"  the  coun- 
cillor added,  "I'll  keep  the  paint  rollers 
nearby.

Model  On  Religious 

Freedom  Commission 


(Cont'd  From  Page  2) 

right  to  give  a  report  to  the 
President  and  to  the  Secre- 
tary of  State." 

Eid  says  his  goal  as  it  re- 
lates to  the  estimated  1 .6  bil- 
lion Muslims  worldwide  is  to 
contribute  to  the  success  of 
the  commission,  to  partici- 
pate in  the  work  and  be  part 
of  the  decision-making. 

And  he  is  spiritually 
pleased  that  his  mission  sup- 
ports the  Koranic  principle 
which  states  that  there  is  no 
compulsion  in  religion,  that 
"one  must  not  force  anything 
in  the  affairs  of  rehgion." 

A  native  of  Lebanon,  af- 
ter graduating  from  the  pres- 
tigious Al-Azhar  University, 
he  served  as  an  imam  for 
seven  years  in  Tripoli,  then 
immigrated  to  America  and 
served  as  Imam  and  Reli- 
gious Director  of  the  Islamic 
Center  of  New  England  in 
Quincy  Point  from  1982- 
2005. 

Eid  and  his  wife,  Hend, 
also  a  native  of  Lebanon, 
have  been  married  for  nearly 
30  years  and  have  seven  chil- 
dren and  six  grandchildren. 
Ambitious  and  dedicated 
to  learning.  Imam  Eid  is  the 
only  one  of  eight  siblings  to 
have  gone  on  to  higher  edu- 
cation. He  recently  com- 
pleted his  doctorate  in  The- 
ology at  Harvard  Divinity 
School. 

Founder  and  Director  of 
Religious  Affairs  at  the  Is- 
lamic Institute  of  Boston,  he 
also  serves  as  Muslim  chap- 
lain at  Massachusetts  Gen- 
eral Hospital,  where  he  vis- 
its and  counsels  patients. 

As  chaplain  at  Brandeis 
University,  he  interacts  with 
American  and  international 
students,  and  leads  Friday

prayers.  "Brandeis  has  a 
great  movement  ofinterfaith 
activities,  including  bringing 
Palestinians  and  Israelis  to 
talk  to  each  other,"  he  says. 

"Last  year  we  had  an  art 
exhibit;  and  the  participants 
ot  this  exhibit  were  families 
of  victims  who  had  died  vio- 
lent deaths  as  a  resuU  of  the 
Palestinian-Israeli  conflict. 
So  they  get  together,  and  in- 
stead of  promoting  revenge, 
they  promote  the  importance 
of  solving  the  Israeli-Pales- 
tinian problem  peacefully." 

Eid  is  proud  of  Quincy's 
respect  for  religious  free- 
dom, commenting  upon  the 
community's  acceptance  of 
the  first  mosque  in  Quincy, 
built  in  an  area  then  known 
as  "Little  Syria." 

"In  general,  the  people  of 
the  city  of  Quincy  demon- 
strate a  great  understanding 
of  the  diversity  of  the  city. 
From  day  one  when  I  ar- 
rived, I  realized  that  the 
Quincy  clergy  association 
welcomed  me,  and  we  would 
attend  each  other's  places  of 
worship." 

"And  my  children,  from 
the  time  they  began  school 
in  Quincy,  I  don't  remember 
one  serious  incident  or  prob- 
lem that  they  had  with  a 
teacher  or  with  other 
students...!  never  observed 
any  form  of  prejudice  against 
my  children,  even  when  my 


daughters  got  older  and  be- 
gan to  wear  religious  dress." 

Imam  Eid  wants  to  see 
more  of  the  estimated  six 
million  Muslims  living  in 
America  involve  themselves 
in  the  political  atmosphere  of 
the  society  and  meet  the 
challenges  that  face  them. 
And  the  only  way  for  Mus- 
lims to  be  there,  he  says,  is 
to  be  trusted. 

"If  you  are  trusted  with 
the  affairs  of  the  country, 
then  you  can  be  part  of  the 
decision-making,  then  try  to 
change  whatever  we  feel 
needs  changing.  When  I 
heard  that  I  was  appointed  to 
this  position,  to  me  that 
means  that  I  am  trusted. 

"So  the  government  will 
trust  me  with  sensitive  infor- 
mation and  material,  as  I  will 
be  exposed  to  confidential 
matters.  Muslims  need  to 
demonstrate  loyalty  to  the 
country,  to  America,  and  to 
separate  their  political  dis- 
agreements from  their  inter- 
action with  the  people." 

"And  I  would  say  that  it 
is  important  for  non-Mus- 
lims to  open  themselves  to 
Muslims  and  learn  about  Is- 
lam and  try  to  differentiate 
between  Islam  the  religion, 
and  Muslims  who  are  not 
following  the  teachings  of 
Islam,  but  who  abuse  the 
teachings  by  committing  acts 
of  terror."

ignited  the  massive  fire  that 
ripped  through  the  third  floor 
of  a  vacant  two-family  house 
at  32  Spear  St.  Saturday, 
according  to  the  State  Fire 
Marshall's  office. 

The  cause  of  the  fire  was 
"deemed  accidental," 
according  to  Donna  Nelson, 
spokesperson  for  the  State 


Fire  Marshall's  office. 

The  Quincy  Fire 
Department  estimated  the 
damage  at  $350,000. 

"We  did  respond  to  that 
fire,  "  Nelson  said,  adding 
that  State  Police  investigative 
personnel  "were  on  the 
scene"  as  Quincy  firefighters 
aided  by  a  Boston  unit  battled 
the  blaze  for  more  than  four 
hours. 

Quincy       firefighters 


responded  to  the  fire  at  the 
comer  of  Spear  Street  and 
Francis  Avenue  two  minutes 
after  the  10:08  a.m.  alarm  on 
Saturday. 

By  2:50  p.m.  the  last  unit 
cleared  out.  Seven  Quincy 
engine  companies,  three 
ladder  companies  and  three 
other  units  responded  as  did 
the  Boston  firelighters.

Study  Finds  Quincy  Tax 
Hikes  Lowest  In  State 


The  former  Research  Di- 
rector of  the  Quincy  Taxpay- 
ers Association  (QTAi  says 
that  a  recent  study  of  munici- 
pal tax  rates  in  Massachu- 
setts shows  that  since  2004 
Quincy's  average  single- 
family  tax  bill  increased  less 
than  any  of  the  50  coinmu- 
nities  in  the  study. 

"Quincy's  average  single 
family  tax  bill  for  Fiscal  Year 
2007  is  $3,780,"  said  Robert 
C.  Haley  in  a  letter  to  Mayor 
William  Phelan.  "The  state- 
wide average  for  single  fam- 
ily lax  bills  has  grown  to  .  .  . 
$3,962  in  Fiscal  Year  2007. 

"Quincy's  three-year  av- 
erage tax  bill  increase  for 
single  family  homes  was 
1.28  per  cent  which  is  the 
lowest  in  all  cities  in  the 


(dninionwealth  .  .  .  (State- 
wide It  is)  a  yearly  average 
(»f  5.40  percent." 

Haley,  who  is  treasurer  ot 
the  tow  n  ol  Hanover  and  w  as 
named  to  the  Quincy  Retire- 
ment Board  by  Phelan  last 
May,  said  he  used  figures 
from  the  Massachusetts  De- 
partment ot  Revenue's  Mu- 
nicipal Data  Bank  in  his 
study  ot  property  taxes  in 
Quincy. 

"1  was  discussing  tax 
rates  with  the  mayor  last 
March,"  said  Haley,  w ho  was 
also  vice  president  of  the 
QTA.  "I  told  him  the  asso- 
ciation was  no  longer  in  ex- 
istence and  he  asked  me  if  I 
would  take  a  look  at 
Quincy's  tax  picture. 

"1  had  some  vacation  time 


this  summer  so  1  did." 

The  study  comes  as 
Mayor  Phelan  is  running  for 
a  fourth  two-year  term  in  the 
tall  election. 

"This  study  tells  us  two 
things,"  he  said, 

"First,  thai  we  are  work- 
ing very  hard  to  manage  our 
city's  finances  and  make 
good  decisions  on  behalf  of 
our  taxpayers.  The  study 
proves  we  ha\  e  done  a  good 
job  in  keeping  our  taxpayers 
in  the  lorefront  of  our  minds. 

"Secondly,  it  tells  us  that 
municipal  governments  need 
help  from  the  State  and  Fed- 
eral governments  to  keep 
property  taxes  in  check. 

"Nobody  would  suggest 
that  our  work  is  ever  com-

Siciliano  Appeals  Rape 
Conviction,  Prison  Term 


Anthony  Siciliano,  the 
former  deputy  emergency 
director  of  Quincy,  has  ap- 
pealed his  conviction  and 
four-to-fi\'e  year  prison  sen- 
tence for  raping  a  teenaged 
boy. 

"The  prosecution  did  not 
produce  a  single  piece  of 
physical  evidence  concern- 
ing any  sexual  assault  at  the 
trial,"  said  Francis  X. 
Collins,  attorney  for 
Siciliano. 

"Tony  expects  to  be  vin- 
dicated after  a  retrial  is  or- 
dered." 

Siciliano,  65,  was  con- 
victed by  a  Norfolk  Superior 
Court  jury  Monday  on  three 
counts  of  raping  the  boy,  a 
volunteer  in  his  emergency 
response  team. 

The  youngster  was  1 3  to 
1 6  years  old  at  the  time  from 
1995  to  1998.  He  is  25  now. 

In  addition  to  the  four-lo- 
fi\e  years  in  prison,  Siciliano 
must  served  five  years  pro- 
bation, register  as  a  sex  of- 
fender and  a\()id  contact 
with  anyone  under  18. 

He  was  acquitted  of  a  sec- 


ond charge  of  indecent  as- 
sault and  battery  on  a  person 
14  brought  by  a  second 
member  of  the  response 
team,  now  22. 

Both  men  testified  that 
the  offenses  occurred  in 
Siciliano's  office  at  the 
DPW  on  Sea  Street,  in  his 
truck  and  at  his  home  as  well 
as  other  places. 

"The  Quincy  Police  in- 
vestigation lasted  four  years 
and  concerned  allegations  of 
events  as  long  as  12  years 
ago,"  said  Collins. 

"The  prosecution  did  not 
produce  a  single  corroborat- 
ing witness  at  the  trial." 

Former  Mayor  James 
Sheets  testified  as  a  charac- 
ter witness  on  behalf  of 
Siciliano  and,  said  Collins, 
other  character  witnesses 
were  prepared  to  testify  but 
were  prevented  from  doing 
so. 

"There  was  strong  trial 
testimony  t)f  the  outstanding 
reputation  of  Tony  Siciliano 
for  sexual  morality."  said  the 
defense  attorney. 

"There  were  literally  hun- 


dreds of  Kmergency  Man- 
agement members  available 
to  testify  as  to  their  personal 
contacts  with  Tony  but  the 
Rules  oi  Evidence  prevent 
such  a  parade  of  witnesses. 

"While  the  jury  believed 
the  account  of  one  of  the 
complainants,  there  are  sig- 
nificant grounds  to  appeal  on 
the  basis  that  the  trial  un- 
fairly shifted  the  burden  on 
Tony  to  explain  why  the  ac- 
cusations were  made. 

"A  notice  of  appeal  has 
been  filed." 

Siciliano  was  unpaid 
deputy  director  of  Quincy's 
emergency  response  team  for 
20  years  until  2002  when  he 
was  fired  by  the  new  Mayor 
William  Phelan. 

Phelan  said  Siciliano 
lacked  the  professional 
qualities  to  serve  in  the  post 
after  the  Sept.  1 1  terrorist  at- 
tacks in  New  York  and  Wash- 
ington. 

At  the  same  time. 
Siciliano  retired  from  his 
basic  city  job  as  a  foreman 
in  the  Traffic  Department.

A  Mayor  To  Remember 


MILLER 


Quincy  ha.s  had  some  ^uod  mayors  down  throuiih  the 
years. 

Those,  for  instance,  who  try  to  keep  the  city  m  good 
fiscal  shape  and  also  save  taxpayers"  money. 

But  for  going  far  above  and  beyond  the  call  of  diil> 
lor  the  taxpayers,  one  really  sttinds  out: 

John  Miller,  the  only  one  of  the  29  men  who  have 
served  as  mayor  to  die  in  v)ITice. 

Frank  McCauley,  one  otlliose  good 
mayors.  discovered  Miller"s 
iledication  while  researching  for  his 
book  "A  F'olitical  History  of  Quincy"" 
published  in  2000  as  part  of  the  city"s 
centennial  celebration. 

Miller  was  elected  in  191 3  and  took 
office  m  1914. 

The  cit\  was  under  its  original  charter  back  then. 
McC'auley  nt)tes,  anil  mayors  were  elected  to  one-year 
terms. 

The  charter  provided  that  a  special  election  would  be 
called  if  a  mayi)r  vacated  the  office  before  the  last  90 
days  of  his  term. 

Some  time  after  taking  office.  Miller  was  diagnosed 
with  cancer  v\  ith  little  hope  for  survival. 

Accordmg  to  the  charter,  if  Miller  died  or  left  office 
before  Oct.  .'>.  a  special  election  would  have  to  be  called 
It)  determine  his  successor. 

McCauley  says  Miller  had  a  deathbed  wish. 
"As  he  lay  dying."'  McCauley  says,  "he  said  he 
w  ished  he  could  live  long  enough  to  spare  the  city  the 
cost  ol  a  special  election." 

Miller  hekh>n  until  Oct.  6-beating  the  special  election 
retiuiremenl  by  just  one-day.  He  was  60. 

McCauley.  who  during  his  eight  years  (four  terms) 
as  mayor  built  a  reputation  as  a  fiscally  tight  fistedchief 
executive  has  tleep  admiration  for  Miller. 

"Imagine.""  he  says.  "'lying  there  dying  and  thinking 
of  just  living  long  enough  to  save  the  city  money.  He 
certainly  was  a  true  conservative.""

McCALLEY 


filled  out  the  remaining  days  of  Miller's  term.  Chester 
Campbell  was  elected  to  take  office  in  1915. 

Whiton  was  elected  in  1916-the  first  Quincy  mayor 
to  serve  the  present  two-year  term. 

-J 
SPEAKING  OF  FRANK  McCAULEY,  did  you 
know  that  if  it  hadn't  been  tor  fate  we 
may  never  have  heard  of  him. 

That  he  might  never  have  served  32 
years  in  public  office  as  mayor,  city 
councillor  and  school  committee 
member-the  only  person  to  be  elected 
to  all  three  offices. 

And  today  he  might  not  be  writing 
The  Sun's  popular  "Quincy "s  Yesterdays"'  column. 

In  fact,  if  it  hadn"t  been  for  fate  there  might  never 
have  been  a  Frank  McCauley.  Here,  or  anywhere. 

It  all  has  to  do  with  his  lather,  Hugh  McCauley,  Jr. 
And,  the  Titanic. 

Hugh  was  the  youngest  of  five  children  of  Hugh 
McCauley,  Sr.  living  in  Armach  County,  Northern 
Ireland. 

Two  brothers,  twins  James  and  William,  came  to  the 
U.S.  in  1905  and  settled  in  Everett.  Two  sisters  went  to 
England.  The  brothers  later  urged  Hugh  to  join  them  in 
America. 

In  April  1912  Hugh  booked  steerage  passage  on  the 
Titanic. 

That  was  the  ill-fated  crossing  when  the  Titanic  hit 
an  iceberg  in  the  North  Atlantic  April  14  and  sank  with 
a  loss  of  1.503  lives. 

"Immigrants  in  those  days  traveled  in  steerage  class 
well  below  in  the  ship,""  says  McCauley.  "'Most  of  those 
lost  on  the  Titanic  were  in  that  steerage  class."' 

But  Hugh.  Frank"s  father  to  be.  wasn't  aboard  the 
Titanic. 

His  father  (Frank's  grandfather)  had  taken  ill  before 
the  Titanic  sailed  and  cancelled  his  passage  to  stay  with 
him. 

Hugh  came  over  on  another  ship  in  October. 
""If  he  had  been  on  the  Titanic  it  is  doubtful  he  would 
have  survived  being  down  there  in  the  steerage  class," 
says  McCauley. 

Hugh  settled  in  Everett  where  he  met  Mary  McKeown 
who  was  from  there.  Her  family  moved  to  Houghs  Neck 
in  1920.  And  Mary  and  Hugh  were  married  Oct.  12. 
1924.  Frank,  their  only  child,  was  bom  Dec.  27.  1929. 
"The  fact  that  my  father  cancelled  that  trip  on  the 
Titanic  changed  the  whole  course  of  Quincy  politics," 
McCauley  muses. 

Well,  he  certainly  had  a  lot  to  do  with  that  course. 

-I 
POLITICAL  TRIVIA:  Who  served  the  longest  as 
mayor? 

Jim  Sheets  is  considered  the  all- 
time  champ  with  1 2  years  (six  terms) 
as  Plan  A  mayor,  Quincy's  present 
form  of  government. 

Amelio  Delia  Chiesa  also  served 
1 2  years  as  mayor-eight  under  Plan  A 
and  four  under  the  former  Plan  E. 
I    >^^^  Pl^in  E  mayors 

were  similar  to  today's  city  council 
presidents,  elected  by  their  colleagues, 
presided  over  city  council  meetings 
and  were  the  city's  official  greeter. 
The  city  manager  was  the  active  chief 
DELLA  executive.

THIS  IS  A  1925  real  photo  postcard  view  of  Bromrield 
Street  looking  west  from  Billings  Road  in  Wollaston. 
The  Wollaston  Park  Land  Company,  which  had  pur- 
chased most  of  the  old  Quincy  farm,  laid  out  the  streets 
in  this  area  a  little  over  100  years  ago.  The  old  Josiah 
Quincy  Homestead  is  still  standing  at  the  end  of  this 
street  hetween  Could  and  Muirhead  Streets.  At  the  time 
of  this  picture  there  were  several  lots  undeveloped  on 
this  street  including  the  right  corner  now  the  site  of  a 


small  brick  apartment.  The  land  company  had  planted 
hundreds  of  American  Kim  trees  along  the  streets 
throughout  their  Wollaston  Park  development,  but  most 
have  been  lost  to  hurricanes  and  the  Dutch  Elm  dis- 
ease. Today,  this  street  is  undergoing  complete  rebuild- 
ing with  new  granite  curbs  and  concrete  sidewalks  as 
part  of  the  city's  infrastructure  upgrade  project

Long  Island  Bridge  Is  A  Disgrace 


As  I  read  the  news  story 
on  State  Senator  Mike 
Morrissey's  call  to  tear  down 
the  decrepit  Long  Island 
Bridge,  I  kind  of  agree  with 
Morrissey. 

This  old  bridge,  built  in 
1951,  needs  to  be  replaced. 
It  would  apparently  cost  $40 
million  to  do  so  and  Boston 
seems  reluctant  to  spend  the 
money. 

Morrissey  thinks  ferry 
service  to  the  island  from 
Boston  make  more  sense  and 
could  well  cost  less  than  the 
$40  million  to  fix  it. 


Boston  seems  cool  to  the 
idea  from  the  senator  from 
Quincy.  The  City  of  Boston 
doesn't  seem  to  think  a  new 
dock  would  survive  the  tides. 

I  can  remember  as  a  child 
taking  the  ferry  from  Battery 
Wharf  in  Boston's  North  End 
to  Long  Island  to  visit  a  fam- 
ily member  at  old  Long  Is- 
land Hospital.  My  family 
never  used  the  bridge  con- 
nected to  Quincy.  We  always 
traveled  over  water  and  the 
fare  was  right  at  two  cents 
apiece. 

The  bridge  is  now  a  dis- 


grace. MBTA  buses  taking 
home  the  homeless  to  their 
island  shelter  have  to  empty 
out  half  the  passengers  be- 
fore crossing  it  for  fear  of 
getting  wet  in  the  water  be- 
low. 

Perhaps,  if  the  island  was 
used  for  more  than  social  ser- 
vices or  a  day  camp  for  in- 
ner city  kids,  the  bridge 
might  get  repaired. 

Long  Island  is  part  oi' 
Boston  but  the  only  way  on 
it  is  through  the  City  of 
Quincy.  For  years  and  espe- 


cially quite  recently,  tempers 
have  grown  between  Boston 
and  Quincy. 

Now  is  the  time  for  politi- 
cal leaders  from  both  cities 
as  well  as  Morrissey  and 
State  Senator  Jack  Hart,  from 
senatorial  district  represent- 
ing Long  Island,  should  all 
sit  down  and  work  out  the 
issue  of  access  to  the  island 
and  the  debate  o\  cr  femes  or 


a  bridge.

A  large  number  of  Quincy  car  owners  face  loss  of  their 
driver's  licenses  if  they  don't  pay  long  overdue  auto  excise 
taxes,  some  of  them  going  back  three  years. 

The  total  due  the  city  is  cU)se  to  $1  million  dollars.  "We 
have  started  pushing  them,"  said  City  Treasurer  Robert  E. 
Eoy,  111.  "We  have  given  warrants  to  the  deputies  and  they  are

Kelly  has  lived  the  advice 
that  every  graduate  receives 
when  they  leave  Archbishop 
Williams  behind:  'Stay  in 
touch  and  give  back!  She  is 
truly  a  wonderful  model  and 
mentor  to  her  athletes. 

■'She  exemplifies  a  strong 
work  ethic  and  sportsman- 


ship. She  is  there  for  her  ath- 
letes whether  the  team  is 
large  or  small,  blessed  with 
lots  of  talent  or  running  sim- 
ply on  desire."

Mushroom  Stuffed  Zucchini 


My  brother  John  called  one  day  and  told 
me  he  had  .some  fresh  zucchini  tor  me  from 
a  friend's  garden.  But  I  didn't  realize  how  big 
they  were  until  my  sister-in-law  Anita  brought 
them  to  me. 

Once  I  saw  them,  1  thought  they  would  be 
great  stuffed. 

1  cut  them  in  halves  and  scooped  out  the 
msides.  which  I  sauted  with  the  rest  of  the 
ingiedients. 

The  following  recipe  is  for  one  large  zuc- 
chini. 

Mushroom  Stuffed  Zucchini 

1  pound  fresh  mushrooms  (cut) 

olive  oil  for  sauteing 

the  inside  of  the  zucchini 

1/4  cup  white  wine 

j»arlic  powder 

about  a  half  cup  sea.soned  bread  crumbs 

salt  and  pepper  to  taste 

blue  cheese  for  topping 


Pre-heat  oven  to  350  degrees.  In  a  frying 
pan,  saute  the  mushrooms  and  the  inside  of 
the  zucchini  in  the  hot  oil.  Saute  for  a  minute 
or  two  and  then  add  the  wine,  if  you  do  not 
w  ant  the  wine,  add  either  water  or  chicken  or 
beef  stock.  Cook  until  mushrooms  are  done. 
Turn  off  the  jet  and  add  the  bread  crumbs 
blending  until  mi.\ture  is  moistened  enough. 
If  you  need  more  liquid,  add  a  smidgen  of 
water. 

Scoop  out  the  inside  of  the  zucchini. 

Place  the  zucchini  in  a  large  baking  pan. 
Place  stuffing  on  each  one  and  top  each  one 
with  blue  cheese  ( I  found  this  gives  so  much 
added  flavor) 

Bake  covered  for  about  35  minutes  and 
then  uncover  and  bake  about  five  minutes 
more  until  cheese  is  melted  on  top.  When 
cooled  cut  in  pieces  and  .serve.  (If  you  do  not 
like  blue  cheese,  any  favorite  .shredded  cheese 
will  do.)

Keenan  Urges  Mayor: 
Address  Health  Costs 


City  Councillor  at  Large 
John  Keenan  has  urged 
Mayor  William  Phelan  to 
begin  addressing  the  city's 
unfunded  health  insurance 
liability  before  it  impacts 
municipal  finances,  includ- 
ing its  bond  rating. 

Keenan,  a  candidate  for 
reelection  to  a  fourth  two- 
year  term  on  the  Council, 
pointed  out  that  future  costs 
of  health  insurance  to  the  city 
might  be  well  in  excess  of 
$100  million. 

"The  City  Council,  over 
two  years  ago,  and  on  two 
other  occasions  since,  has 
urged  the  mayor  to  address 
the  issue,"  he  said. 

"Many  communities  are 
already  in  the  planning  pro- 
cess, yet  Quincy  has  not  even 
completed  the  first  step  of 
determining  the  city's  costs. 

"The  administration 
should  have  already  com- 
pleted the  actuarial  study  and 
should  have  started  the  pro- 
cess of  planning  how  to  meet 
the  city's  obligations." 

Keenan  noted  that  Gover- 
nor Deval  Patrick  recently 
signed  into  law  the  Munici- 
pal Partnership  Act  which 
would  permit  the  city  to  join 
the  Group  Insurance  Com-

mission  (GIC)  as  a  potential 
way  to  control  present  and 
future  health  insurance  costs. 
"While  some  are  pointing 
to  the  GIC  legislation  as  the 
way  to  solve  the  city's 
present  and  future  health  in- 
surance obligations,"  he  said, 
"it  may  not  be  the  solution. 

He  pointed  out  that  re- 
cently negotiated  contracts 
between  the  city  and  its  em- 
ployees do  not  require  them 
to  join  the  GIC  and  the  city 
would  have  to  engage  in  an- 
other round  of  bargaining. 

An  agreement  with  the 
employees  would  have  to  be 
reached  prior  to  Oct.  1  in  or- 
der for  the  city  to  join  the 
GIC  for  the  ne.xt  fi.scal  year. 

Even  the  director  of  the 


GIC.  Keenan  added,  has  said 
that  joining  the  CJIC  "niaN 
not  be  the  best  option"  for 
some  cities  and  towns. 

"If  the  administration  had 
started  this  process  two  years 
ago,  it  would  be  in  a  much 
better  position  to  address  the 
city's  present  and  future 
health  insurance  obliga- 
tions," he  said. 

"The  city  would  be  better 
able  to  assess  the  potential 
benefits  of  the  GIC  and  com- 
pare it  to  a  redesign  of  the 
city's  present  plan. 

"The  city  would  also  have 
been  able  to  factor  innova- 
tive approaches,  such  as  a 
Retiree  Medical  Trust. 

"How  the  city  addresses 
present  employee  health  in- 
surance issues  and  how  it 
plans  for  the  future  will  have 
a  significant  impact  on  the 
city's  financial  health. 

"Several  months  in  the 
planning  process  already 
have  been  lo.st  so  it  is  impera- 
tive that  the  city  complete  the 
actuarial  study  immediately, 
begin  the  bargaining  process 
with  employees  and  look  as 
well  to  innovative  methods 
of  addressing  the  city's  long- 
term  health  insurance  obliga- 
tions."

For  35  years,  the  Office 
of  Professional  Employees 
Union  (OPEIU)  Local  6  of 
Quincy  represented  the  field 
providers  at  the  Fallon  Am- 
bulance Service. 

Last  year,  they  were  chal- 
lenged by  the  California- 
based  National  Emergency 
Medical  Services  Associa- 
tion (NEMSA)  to  a  National 
Labor  Relations  Board  elec- 
tion. 

The  result?  No  union  at 


all. 

The  Paramedics,  Emer- 
gency Medical  Technicians 
and  Chair  Coach  Attendants 
were  given  three  options  on 
the  ballot  —  OPEIU  or 
NEMSA  or  an  open  shop. 

The  balloting  was  held 
July  1 6  to  July  30  and  were 
counted  Tuesday,  July  31, 
and  the  vote  was  to  forgo 
union  representation  after  35 
years. 

After  a  seven-day  certifi- 


cation period,  if  the  count  is 
not  contested  by  either  los- 
ing party,  the  vote  becomes 
final. 

"This  is  a  significant  step 
for  our  employees  to  take," 
said  Tim  Fallon,  the  CEO  of 
the  company. 

"We  appreciate  their  trust 
in  the  ownership  and  man- 
agement of  Fallon  Ambu- 
lance but  we  are  also  very 
mindful  of  the  many  contri- 
butions that  unions  have 
made  to  the  workforce."

To  ail  Quincy  residents: 


We  iire  concerned  Quincy  residents  who  feel  an  obligation  to  speak  up.  We've  been  following  the  news  of  the 
Quincy  4  trial.  We  are  shocked  at  the  outcome.  We  want  to  say  that  we  cannot  understand  why  two  young  men  with  no 
prior  record  were  sentenced  to  serve  the  first  10  days  of  a  six-month  suspended  jail  sentence  and  two  years'  probation  for 
resisting  arrest  and/or  disorderly  conduct. 

This  breaking  of  silence  is  to  acknowledge  that  we  care  about  what  happened.  We  care  about  our  community. 

We  would  like  to  thank  all  the  individuals  and  organizations  who  have  been  helping  to  inform  and  guide  the  public 
through  this  process.  This  incident  helped  us  learn  about  the  judicial  system  and  to  witness  how  justice  is  served.  Our 
hope  is  that  this  experience  is  an  enlightenment  to  the  residents  in  Quincy.

August  Moon  Fest  Comes 
To  Quincy  Center  Aug.  19 


The  August  Moon  Festi- 
\  al.  the  second  biggest  holi- 
day (Ml  the  Chinese  calendar. 
is  moving  up  the  ladder  in 
Quincy's  plethora  of 
multicultural  observances. 

Two  year's  ago  it  was  at 
the  Presidents  Plaza.  Last 
year,  it  was  in  the  same  place, 
only  the  location  had  been 
renamed  the  Kam  Man  Mar- 
ketplace. 

This  year,  the  20th  annual 
Quincy  August  Moon  Festi- 
val will  be  held  Sunday,  Aug. 
19.  from  1 1  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  on 
Hancock  Street  in  the  heart 
of  downtown  Quincy. 

"We  were  too  success- 
ful," said  John  Brothers,  ex- 
ecutive director  of  Quincy 
Asian  Resources,  Inc. 
(QARl ).  recalling  the  events 
of  the  last  two  years  on  the 
Quincy  Avenue  mall. 

"There  was  not  enough 
parking.  People  had  trouble 
getting  to  it.  The  Festival  has 
become  one  of  the  primary 
cultural  events  in  Quincy." 

An  estimated  10,000  are 
expected  at  the  20th  annual 
August  Moon  Festival  be- 
tween 1400  and  1600 
Hancock  St.,  a  short  walk 
from  the  MBTA  station  and 
free  public  parking. 

Brothers  predicted  that 
"the  new  location  will 
accomodate  this  festival  for 
many  years  to  come." 

"The  festival  was 
launched  in  1987  as  a  way 
to  celebrate  Asian  heritage 
and  culture  to  the  Quincy 
community,"  said  Tackcy 
Chan,  the  chairperson  oi'  the 
2007  event.

"Thank  you  to  the  hun- 
dreds of  volunteers  working

"Their  work  is  a  reflec-

"The  celebration  of  this 
event  in  Quincy."  said  Broth- 
ers, "will  help  the  commu-

Compression 

Fittings  Are  Solder 

Alternative 

S.Last  weekend.  I  had 
.a  bit  of  a  plumbing 
Icm.  I  wxs  chan^in^ 
out  the  nil  valve  on  the 
up.stairs  toilet  and  discov- 
ered the  former  owner  had 
run  solid  «>pper  pipe  all 
the  wav  up  to  the  bottom  of 
the  toilet  tank,  then  melted 
the  plastic  screw  of  the  fill 
valve  to  fit  the  connection! 
And  of  course,  there's  no 
shutofr  valve  to  the  toilet, 
so  I  had  to  shut  off  m  ater  to 
the  entire  upstairs. 

The  folks  at  the  home- 
improvement  store  told  me 
how  to  replace  part  of  the 
copper  pipe  with  a  flexible 
connection,  and  also  .sold 
me  a  shutoff  valve  with  a 
compression  fitting  that 
should  connect  the  copper 
pipe  to  the  flexible  pipe.  1 
cut  the  copper  pipe  off  at 
the  measured  spot  but  can- 
not get  the  compression 
ring  to  fit,  even  though  it  is 
supposedly  one-half  inch, 
just  like  the  pipe  diameter. 
Any  suggestions?  Vm  tired 
of  walking  downstairs  to 
shower!  —  Confused  in 
Connecticut 

A,  You  will  need  to  apply 
•  a  little  more  elbow 
grea.se,  aiKi  a  little  actual 
grease,  to  get  the  compres- 
sion ring  to  slide  onto  the 

pipe- 
Compression   fittings   are 

really  convenient  plumbing 

accessories    titaX    suit    the 


DIYer  quite  well.  Most  often 
used  to  connect  pipes  m 
lixatioas  where  soldering  is 
impractical  or  unsafe,  these 
fittings  -  either  valves  or 
connectors  —  use  a  com- 
pression system  to  ensure  a 
tight  tit.  ()n  each  side  of  the 
pipes  to  be  connected,  a  met- 
al ring  is  slipped  on  about 
one -quarter  to  one-half  inch. 
The  end  of  the  pipe  is  insert- 
ed into  the  fitting.  A  com- 
pression nut  (.slipped  onto 
the  pipe  before  the  ring) 
pushes  the  ring  against  the 
edge  of  the  fitting  as  it  is 
screwed  on,  sealing  the  pipe 
end. 

ITie  compression  ring  is  a 
hair's  breath  wider  than  the 
pipe  diameter,  so  any  issue 
with  the  pipe  —  warping, 
mineral  buildup,  etc.  —  will 
prevent  it  from  sliding  on.  If 
the  pipe  is  not  bent  or  dam- 
aged, try  ^x^hshing  the  out- 
side using  super-fine  steel 
wool.  Put  a  drop  of  penetrat- 
ing oil  inside  the  compres- 
sion ring  to  help  it  slide  on 
more  easily. 

Additionally,  for  a  com- 
pression fitting  to  work,  the 
edge  of  the  pipe  needs  to  be 
smooth  and  free  of  burrs. 
The  smooth  edge  presses 
inside  the  compression  fit- 
ting, creating  an  additional 
seal.

Hints  For  Homeowners 


Don't  Let  The  Sun  Keep  You  Inside 


(NAF.S)- With  dreams  of 
lounging  in  the  sun,  youxe 
invested  thousands  of  dollars 
in  your  new  deck  or  patio. 
Hut  the  sun  is  much  hotter 
than  you  had  expected,  and 
with  fears  of  skin  cancer 
increasing  every  day,  you 
lind  yourself  spending  more 
time  indoors. 

But  don't  despair.  You  can 
enjoy  your  deck  or  patio-no 
matter  the  temperatuie-if  you 
install  a  retractable  fabric 
awning.  With  the  push  of  a 
button.  c(H)l,  shady  relief  is 
at  hand. 

Your  personal  comfort  is 
just  one  of  the  benefits  of  a 
retractable  awning.  The 
shade  from  your  awning  can 
reduce  heat  gain  inside  your 
home  by  as  much  as  77 
percent,  lowering  indoor 
temperatures  by  I.^i  degrees. 
Not  only  will  you  save  on 


your  energy  bill,  but  you  will 
also  protect  valuable 
draperies,  carpet  and 
furniture  from  fading. 

"Most  people  add  an 
awning  to  their  homes  for 
personal  comfort  so  they  can 
enjt)y  a  deck  or  patio,"  said 
John  Dearden,  managing 
partner  oi'  I^clipse  Awning 
Systems,  a  leading  national 
manufacturer.  "The 

additional  benefits-reduced 
energy  costs  and  protecting 
home  furnishings-are 
advantages  that  homeowners 
quickly  appreciate  just  as 
much." 

There  has  never  been  a 
better  time  to  consider  a 
retractable  awning. 

Improvements  in  materials 
and  design  innovations  have 
made  retractable  awnings 
longer  lasting   and   more 


He.xible  than  ever  before. 
Lateral  arms,  roller  tubes, 
connecting  components  and 
all-weather  performance 
fabrics,  such  as  the  Sunbrella 
brand,  are  designed  for 
carefree  service. 

Anyone  concerned  about 
sun  exposure  will  be  glad  to 
know  that  Sunbrella  fabrics 
have  been  recognized  as  The 
Skin  Cancer  Foundation  as 
offering  significant  levels  of 
sun  protection. 

Motori/.aticm  of 

retractable  awnings  and 
associated  electronic  controls 
contribute  tocarefree  service. 
Wind  sensors  can 
automatically  retract  your 
awning  to  protect  it  from  high 
winds,  and  sun  sensors  will 
cau.se  the  awning  to  extend 
when  the  sun  comes  out. 

One  of  the  most  recent 


advances  in  retractable 
awnings  is  llexibility  forjust 
about  any  space.  Through 
advanced  engineering,  an 
awning  can  be  extended  up 
to  16.5  feet  from  your  home 
to  cover  an  entire  deck  or 
patio.  For  smaller  spaces, 
such  as  a  town  home, 
retractable  awnings  can  be 
created  that  extends  as  much 
as  1 1 .5  feet  but  are  only  8 
feet  wide. 

"Anyone  considering  a 
retractable  awning  should  do 
their  homework  to  be  sure  of 
getting  a  quality  product," 
Dearden  said.  "With  the  right 
materials  and  professional 
installation,  a  retractable 
awning  adds  comfort  and 
value  to  your  home."

Time  To  Repair  Or  Replace  HVAC  System? 


(NAPS)- When  it's  time 
to  decide  whether  to  repair  or 
replace  your  existing  air- 
conditioning  system,  there 
arc  a  lev\  things  to  consider. 
When  the  heating.  \  eniilating 
and  air-conditioning 

(HVAC)  system  is  newer, 
pertorming  simple  repairs  is 
usually  more  cost  effective 
and  will  often  prolong  the 
life  of  your  system. 
Con\ersel\,  older  systems 
may  experience  more 
complicated  problems  in 
which  repairs  are  possible  but 
max  not  he  the  best  choice  in 


the  long  run.  Comparing  the 
cost  of  replacement  may  aid 
in  your  decision. 

Things  to  consider  -  The 

experts  at  Coleman  Heating 
&  Air  Conditioning  from 
Johnson  Controls  suggest  a 
few  things  to  examine,  when 
it  comes  to  your  HVAC  unit. 
First,  as  you  make  your 
comparison,  considerenergy 
costs.  Today's  ajr 
conditioning  systems  are  up 
to  60  percent  more  efficient 
than  systems  manufactured 
10  years  ago.  If  you  are 
concerned  about  utilitv  bills 


Neighborhood  Housing 
Homebuyer  Workshop 


and  are  faced  with  an 
expensive  repair,  look  at  the 
energy  savings  new  systems 
offer." 

Second,  the  nature  of  the 
repair  is  also  important. 
Repairs  that  require 
replacement  of  system 
components  may  result  in  an 
unmatched  system,  which 
can  decrease  system 
efficiency,  compromise 
comfort  and  shorten  the 
compressor  life  span. 

Third,  when  it  comes  to 
comfort,  if  repairs  to  an 
immediate  problem  will  not 
address  ongoing  comfort 
issues,  such  as  cold  spots, 
drafts,  humidity  or  air-quality 


concerns,  these  arc  good 
indicators  that  it's  time  lor  a 
new  system. 

Today "s  new  systems, 
such  as  the  Fchelon  57  Series 
15-1-  SFFR  air  conditioner 
from  Ct)leinan.  offer  a  v  ariety 
ot  new  features,  including 
two-stage  cooling, 

WhisperDrive  technology 
and  humidifiers,  designed  to 
increase  comfort  and 
improve  indoor  air  quality.

( NAPS )  -  Although  many 
of  today's  home  have  security 
systems,  there  are  further 
steps  a  homeowner  can  take 
to  help  prevent  intrusion. 

For  example,  making  sure 
a  home  appears  occupied  is 
an  easy  way  to  divert 
uninvited  guests.  Invitations 
to  intrusion  include  notes  on 
the  door,  unshoveled  snow 
or  an  unmowed  lawn, 
accumulations  of  mail  or 
newspapers,  total  interior 
darkness  before  a  normal 
t>edtime  and  an  empty  garage 
or  carport  with  no  vehicles 
present. 

According  to  the  experts 


at  HouseMaster,  leaders  in 
the  home  inspection  industry, 
making  the  house  appear 
lived  in  weven  when  away 
by  alternating  timed  lighting 
and  radios  and  having 
neighbors  pick  up  the 
newspaper  or  mail  is  a  critical 
security  measure. 

To  discourage  intruders, 
also  keep  doors  and  w  indows 
locked,  especially  at 
basement  and  first-floor 
levels  or  where  the  home  is 
accessible  from  a  tree,  porch 
or  other  structure.  Inside 
doors  that  lead  to  the 
basement  or  garage  should 
also  be  kept  locked.

Wins  Four  Top  Awards 


The  year  2006  was  a  ban- 
ner year,  not  only  lor  Jack 
Conway  Realtors,  which  cel- 
ebrated its  50th  anniversary 
of  service  to  the  home  buy- 
ers and  sellers  of  Massachu- 
setts, but  also  for  the  Conway 
Ad  Group,  which  recently 
won  four  international  com- 
munication awards  for  its 
Golden  Jubilee  video, 
"Conway  Country  -  The 
Dream,  the  Destiny." 

The  28-minute  tribute, 
written  by  Jack  Conway  Ad- 
vertising  Director  Marie 
Fricker  and  produced  by  Lou 
Leta  of  Digital  Video  Con- 
sulting in  Marshfield,  was  a

50-year  journey  from  cub 
sports  reporter  at  the  old 
Boston  Record  American  to 


founder  and  chairman  of  the 
largest  independent  real  es- 
tate company  in  five  of  the 
six  New  England  States. 

The  video  was  recently 
selected  from  thousands  of 
entries  in  the  U.S.  and  abroad 
to  receive  the  2006 
Communicator's  Award  of 
Distinction,  the  2006  Aurora

Place  Advertising  Award 
from  the  Leading  Real  Estate 
Companies  of  the  World. 

■'We  were  thrilled  to  win 
this  kind  of  recognition  for 
our  work."  said  Fricker,  mar- 
keting director  for  Conway 
since  1993.  'it  was  without 
a  doubt  the  most  exciting 
project  I  have  ever  worked 


on.  But  it's  actually  Jack 
Conway  whodeser\es  all  the 
kudos.  It  was  his  story.  We 
just  told  it"

the  video  premiered  at  Jack 
Conway  Co.'s  50th  anniver- 
sary celebration,  held  in  Oc- 
tober at  Lombardo's  in 
Randolph. 

All  proceeds  from  the 
sales  of  the  DVD  to  Conway 
associates  and  friends  were 
donated  to  the  MainSpring

Tips 


Lawn  &  Garden 

Helping  Your  Garden  Survive  A  Dry  Spell 


(NAPS)-  A  prolonged 
period  of  hot,  dry  weather 
can  be  stressful  for  both 
gardeners  and  plants.  That's 
because  heat,  humidity,  and 
low  rain  levels  can  ultimately 
lead  to  the  devastation  of 
lawns,  shrubs  and  gardens. 

While  a  drought  can  be  a 
burden  for  any  gardener, 
experts  at  Vigoro  suggest 
.several  tips  to  maintain  and 
keep  your  garden  beautiful 
during  a  summer  drought. 

•  Mulch  properly  -  Use 
two  to  three  inches  of  mulch 
around  trees  and  shrubs  and 
one  to  two  inches  around 
vegetable  and  Oower  plants 
to  keep  the  soil  tomperatuie 
cooler  and  to  keep  moisture 
in  the  ground. 

•  Water  early  or  late  - 
To  cut  doun  on  water  los^ 
through  evaporation, 
watering  in  the  early  morning 
or  evening  is  best. 

•  Use  soaker  hoses  or  a 
drip  irrigation  system  -  By 


using  soaker  hoses  and  drip 
irrigation  systems,  water  ca 
be  directed  to  the  root  /.one 
rather  than  the  leaves,  which 
cause  less  chance  of 
evaporation. 

•  Use  rainwater  to  water 
your  plants-  Save  rainwater 
by  putting  a  rain  collector 
under  downspouts  from  the 
roof.  Use  a  watering  can  to 
directly  apply  the  rainwater 
to  plants. 

•  Plant  drought-tolerant 
species  -  Choose  annuals  or 
perennials  that  can  survive 
in  high  heat,  high  humidity 


and  low  water  conditions. 

Recently,  Vigoro,  a 
supplier  of  lawn  and  garden 
products,  introduced  a  line 
of  over  200  annuals  and 
perennials,  including  several 
drought-tolerant  species.  The 
drought-tolerant  annuals 
include  Cleome.  Coleus, 
Marigolds,  Petunias. 
Begonias,  Phlox,  Salvia  and 
Zinnia,  while  perennials  such 
asTickseed,  Sage,  Hollyhock 
and  Iceland  Poppy  can  also 
be  a  wise  choice  for  gardens 
experiencing  drought 
conditions.

Your  Lawn 

Top  Five  Golden  Rules  For  A  Lush  Lawn 


(NAPS)  -  Creating  and 
maintaining  a  heaUhy,  lush 
lawn  may  he  easier  with  a 
few  tips  from  the  experts. 

Here  are  the  Top  5  Golden 
Rules  from  the  lawn  care 
experts  at  The  Home  Depot: 

•  Water  regularly:  Lawns 
need  one  inch  of  water  a 
week,  either  from  irrigation 
or  rain.  Make  sure  your  lawn 
gets  this  amount  in  one  form 
or  the  other.  To  keep  your 
water  bills  down,  water  early 
in  the  morning,  before 
sunri.se.  and  walerdeeply  and 
less  often  rather  than  shallow 
and  more  often. 

•  Mow  high  and  often: 
Mowing  pioperly  is 
fundamental  to  having  a 
beautiful  lawn.  Mowing 
produces  a  thick  lawn,  as  it 
encourages  grass  to  grow  low 


and  spread  wide  rather  than 
grow  tall  and  sparsely.  As  a 
general  rule,  you  should 
remove  less  than  one-third 
of  a  blade  of  grass  to  avoid 
stressing  it.  This  may  mean 
that  you  need  to  cut  grass 
every  four  or  five  days  instead 
of  once  a  week.  To  save  time, 
consider  investing  in  a  zero- 
turning  radius  mower. 
Combining  /.ero-turn 
maneuverability  with  the 
comfort  and  simplicity  ol  a 
traditional  lawn  tractor,  the 
new  iSeries  Zero  Turn 
Tractor  from  Cub  Cadet  is 
available  at  The  Home  Depot. 
•  Fertilize:  The  best- 
lookmg  lawns  are  fed  three 
to  four  times  a  year.  For  best 
results,  lertili/c  in  the 
morning  u  hile  the  grouml  is 
'Ntill  a  little  damp.  This  will 


leave  lines  on  the  grass  so 
you  can  see  which  areas  still 
need  fertilizing.  Don't  inow 
the  lawn  prior  to  fertilizing. 
Because  all  fertilizers  and 
grass  are  not  created  equal, 
check  with  a  sales  associate 
for  the  program  that  is  right 
for  your  area  and  turf  type. 

•  Control  v^eed.s:  Weeds 
directly  compete  with 
desirable  turf  grasses  lor 
nutrients,  light,  space  and 
water.  In  the  early  spring, 
apply  a  pre-emergent 
herbicide  to  pre\ent  weed 
seeds  from  germinating. 

•  (J row  gra.ss only  where 
grass  should  be  grown: 
Avoid  the  fiiisttaling  ol 
ti\ing  to  grou  glass  m  deep 
shade,  under  a  mature  tree,  in 
high-tralfic  areas  or  on  steep 
slopes.

about  the  juvenile  residence. 

In  addition,  they  noted  that 
the  Quincy  Square  location 
did  not  seem  an  optimal 
setting  Tor  a  home  lor  at-risk 
juveniles. 

However,  the  residence 
wasn't  all  bad  tor  the 
neighborhood,  according  to 
both  .lones  and  Morgan.  They 
recalled  that  the  teenagers 
sometimes  did  ch(»res  and 
shoveled  snow    tor  their 


elderly  neighbors  and  they 
would  "...do  it  voluntarily." 

"We  all  thought  the  timing 
(ot  the  tire)  was  suspicious," 
Morgan  said,  noting  the 
young  tenants  had  just  been 
moved. 

However,  Morgan,  also 
recalled  that  all  the  lights 
were  left  on  in  the  entire 
house  all  the  lime  after  it  was 
vacated.  'They  had  all  the 


lights  on....  it  was  lit  up  like 
a  Christmas  tree,  all  the 
electricity,  all  the  tloors,  all 
night." 

Among  the  do/ens  of 
firefighters  at  the  scene  were 
Captain  Steven  Bay  lis  and 
James  Kennedy,  Lt.  James 
McClusky  and  Kevin 
O'Connor  and  tirelighters 
Michael  Casey  and  Kenneth 
Dowd.

such  as  •■(id  >our  tree  lapti>p"'  or  "^ou  have  just  won  a  free

tion, but  sadl\,  not  the  accurate  mtormation  Phe  headlines 
make  it  seem  so  simple  I  decided  to  investigate  one  o\'  the.se 
offers. 

I  opened  a  site  called  "Electronics  Bonus  Paths",  which  of- 
fered a  free  laptop  computer.  Their  first  request  for  informa-

"terms  and  conditions"  of  the  offer  and  the  small  print.  1  learned 
that  there  were  going  to  be  problems.  To  be  eligible  for  your 
"free"  laptop,  your  standard  terms  are  required,  such  as.  being 
a  I'.S.  citi/en.  and  being  18  years  of  age  or  older.  As  I  read  on, 
it  became  more  ob\  lous  that  additional  requirements  were  be- 
ing put  in  place  that  would  allow  more  solicitations  and  ulti- 
mateh  put  my  personal  information  at  risk.  This  was  the  small 
print;

"Last  year,  the  BBB  S>  stem  logged  more  than  .'>,2(X)  complaints 
against  online  and  direct  mail  marketers.  Man\  consumers  com- 
plained that,  despite  jumping  through  the  considerable  hoops  - 
which  often  included  buying  pncey  merchandise,  services  or 
providing  friends'  email  addresses  -  ihey  didn't  receive  the 
"free"  merchandise  the>  were  promised  or  were  billed  for  other

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Tuesday,  July  24.  at  approximately  9: 15  p.m..  Detec- 
tive Eld  Ryan  was  stopped  at 
the  light  at  the  intersection  of 
Elm  Avenue  and  Hancock 
Street  when  he  observed  a 
Bla/er  fail  to  stop  at  the  red 
light  exiting  the  7- 1 1  Store.  He 
also  saw  that  the  front  right 
passenger  was  sitting  on  the 
doorframe,  hanging  out  of  the 
vehicle,  banging  his  lists  on  the 
roof. 

There  was  a  large  group  of 
vouths  in  the  parking  lot  yell- 
ing at  the  occupants  oi  the 
Bla/er  as  it  sped  off  north- 
bound on  Hancock  Street. 

Just  as  Detective  Ryan  followed  the  Bla/.ei,  Communi- 
cations inlormed  area  cars  that  there  was  a  disturbance  at 
the  7- 1 1  store.  While  cruisers  were  sent  to  the  7  11  store. 
Detective  R\an  informed  Communications  that  the  vehicle 
he  was  following  might  have  been  involved  in  the  incident. 

Olficer  Lane  Watkins  assisted  i)etcciive  R>an  as  thev 
stopped  the  suspect  vehicle  on  West  Scjuantum  Street  at 
Hancock  Street.  .As  the  Officers  approacheti  the  vehicle, 
thev  observed  a  temale  in  the  back  scat  moving  about  iraii- 
tieally. 

They  also  saw  that  the  front  right  passenger  w  as  attempt- 
ing to  use  his  right  foot  in  a  kicking  motion  as  if  to  hide 
something  under  the  seat.  Due  to  these  suspicious  move- 
ments, the  occupants  were  ordered  to  keep  their  hands  up 
where  tliev  ct)ukl  he  seen  As  Detective  Ryan  appri>ached 
the  w  indow.  he  could  smell  the  odor  of  marijuana.  The  fn>nt 
right  passenger  was  removed  from  the  vehicle  and  as  he 
walked,  it  appeared  that  he  was  not  putting  any  weight  on 
his  right  foot. 

Concerned  that  the  suspect  might  be  harboring  a  weapon. 
Detective  Ryan  conducted  a  pat-frisk  and  found  a  multi- 
colored glass  pipe  with  black  residue,  used  to  smoke  mari- 
juana. The  suspect  (#1 )  was  handcuffed  and  placed  in  Of- 
ficer Watkins's  cruiser.  Detective  Ryan  removed  the  fe- 
male (suspect  #2)  from  the  rear  seat  and  asked  if  she  had 
any  weapons  or  drugs  on  her.  She  said  she  did  and  then 
removed  a  clear  plastic  sandw  ich  baggie  from  the  right  cup 
of  her  bra  and  gave  it  to  the  Detective. 

Inside  the  bag  were  three  smaller  bags  filled  with  mari- 
juana. Detective  Ryan  recognized  that  this  was  for  street 
distribution  and  she  was  also  placed  under  arrest.  Officer 
Watkins  pat-frisked  the  driver  (suspect  #3)  while  Detective 
Ryan  searched  the  Blazer  and  found  a  large  bag  of  mari- 
juana. 

The  driver  was  placed  under  arrest.  Suspect  #1,  a  17- 
year-old  Quincy  resident,  was  charged  with  "Possession  of 
Class  D  (Marijuana)  and  Conspiracy  to  Violate  the  Drug 
Control  Law." 

Suspect  #2,  an  18-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was  charged 
w  ith  "Possession  of  Class  D  w  ith  the  Intent  to  Distribute, 
Drug  Free  School  Zone  violation  and  Conspiracy  to  Vio- 
late the  Drug  Control  Law."  Suspect  #3,  a  22-year  old 
Quincy  resident,  was  charged  with  "Possession  of  Class  D 
and  Conspiracy  to  Violate  the  Drug  Control  Law." 

The  drugs  were  seized  as  evidence  and  sent  to  the  lab  for 
confirmation.  Back  at  the  7-11  store,  youths  denied  there 
w  as  a  problem.

Disappointing  Finish 
To  A  Magical  Season 

Road  Ends  For 
Quincy  Legion 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

Quiiicy  Post  95  had  its 
magical  season  come  to  an 
end  last  week  in  the  opening 
round  of  the  American 
Legion  South  Sectional 
tournainent. 

Post  95  lost  the  first  two 
games  of  their  best-of-three 
series  against  Brockton  Post 
35  and  was  elimmaled  from 
post-season  contention.  Post 
95  dropped  Game  One  at 
Adams  Field  last  Wednesday 
night,  7-4,  and  fell  in  defeat 
last  Thursday,  9-5  in  Game 
Two,  atCampanelli  Stadium 
down  in  Brocktcm.  The  team 
finished  the  2007  season  with 
a  14-9  overall  record. 

"This  is  absolutely 
disappointing,"  said  manager 
Dan  Sweeney.  "On  the  other 
hand,  after  going  2-18  last 
year,  this  was  the  first  time  in 
30-40  years  we'  ve  made  it  to 
the  .second  round. " 

In  the  second  and  deciding 
game,  Quincy  Post  95  trailed 
by  jUst  one  run  heading  into 
the  eighth  inning,  but  Post  35 
broke  the  game  \Mde  open 
with  a  three-run  outburst  that 
put  the  game  and  the  series 
out  of  reach. 

Post   95   showed  heart 


throughout  the  series  and 
after  falling  behind  4- 1  after 
two  innings  in  Game  Two, 
Quincy  scored  one  run  in  the 
top  of  the  third  on  a  RBI 
single  otfthe  bat  of  shortstop 
Mike  lA'Bel. 

Post  95  took  a  5-4  lead 
with  a  three-run  fifth  inning. 
Jay  Lewis  singled,  Mike 
Leone  and  LcBel  hit  back- 
to-back  doubles  and  Bill 
Kiley  singled.  Tom  Conley 
drove  in  the  final  run  of  the 
frame  for  Post  95  with  a 
fielder's  choice. 

The  atmosphere  at  Adams 
Field  for  Game  One  was 
electric,  and  Quincy  Post  95 
got  the  home  crowd  into  the 
action  early  in  the  game,  but 
missed  scoring  opportunities 
in  the  first  few  innings  came 
back  to  bite  Post  95  in  the 
end. 

Quincy  put  up  the  first 
run  of  Game  One  on  a 
monster  home  run  from  Tom 
Gonles  to  start  the  second 
inning.  Brockton's  ace 
starting  pitcher  Brian 
Galligan  left  a  Hat  cur\  e  ball 
o\  er  the  middle  of  the  plate, 
and  Conle\  deposited  it  o\  er 
the  fence  in  let't  field  to  gi\e 
Post  95  the  1-0  lead.

In  the  bottom  of  the  third 
inning.  Tom  Power  led  off 
with  a  walk  and  after  (jalligan 
recorded  two  straight  outs, 
Mike  LeBel  (two  hits) 
singled,  moving  Power  to 
third.  With  runners  on  the 
corners.  Bill  Kiley  (two  hits) 
drove  in  Power  with  a  single, 
but  Post  95  would  leave 
LeBel  and  Kiley  stranded  in 
scoring  position. 

Post  95  would  not  have 
another  runner  on  base  until 
there  was  one  out  in  the 
bottom  of  the  eighth,  as 
Galligan  settled  down  and 
retired  fourteen  straight 
Quinc\  batters  after  Kile\ 
knocked  in  Power  to  make 
the  score  2-0  Quinc\ .

Setting  A  Good  Nutritional 
Example  For  Kids 


(NAPS)  -  When  if  comes 
to  feeding  their  children, 
parents  certainly  have  the 
best  intentions.  But  many 
have  busy  hiestyles  that  don't 
always  allow  enough  time 
for  grocery  shopping,  meal 
planning  or  cooking.  Others 
may  not  be  aware  of  the 
healthiest  ingredients  or 
cooking  meth(Hls,  and  may 
rely  on  fatty  or  starchy  foods 
as  the  basis  for  meals. 
Coupled  with  the  picky  eating 
habits  that  seem  to  be  so 


prevalent  among  kids,  its  no 
wonder  that  children  are 
usually  not  eating  as  well  as 
they  should. 

Age-Old  Habits 

•  Younger  children  often 
have  a  number  of  foods  that 
they  refuse  to  eat.  Children 
can  be  particular  not  just 
about  how  food  tastes,  but 
temperature  and  texture,  too. 
And  trying  to  get  kids  to  eat 
their  veggies  can  be  a  real 
exercise  in  persistence. 

•  Most  kids  prefer  foods 


Foot  Pain  Ruining 
Your  Golf  Swing? 


(NAPS) -The  next  time 
you  head  to  your  lavorite  golf 
course,  make  sure  your  feet 
are  in  shape  before 
approaching  the  tee  box. 

The  American  College  of 
Foot  and  Ankle  Surgeons 
( ACFAS)  says  your  big  toe; 
heel  and  ball  of  your  foot  are 
the  spots  most  likely  to  cause 
pain  that  can  ruin  your  golf 
swing.  But  pain  relief  is 
possible  and  frequently  does 
not  require  surgery. 

According  to  the  ACFAS

FootPhysicians.com,  the 
three  most  common  foot 
conditions  that  can  be  the 
barrier  to  a  perfect  golf  sw  ing 
are  neuromas,  arthritis  and 
heel  pain. 

Neuromas  are  nerves  that 
become  thickened,  enlarged 
and  painful  because  they've 
been  compressed  or  irritated. 
A  neuroma  in  the  ball  of  your 
iool  can  cause  significant 
pain  as  your  bod>  transfers 
its  weight  from  one  toot  to 
the  other  w  hiic  sw  iiiiiiiii:  the

from  \oiii  heel  to  the  h.ill  of 


your  foot.  People  with  this 
condition  compare  the  pain 
to  someone  jabbing  a  knife 
in  their  heel.  Heel  pain  can 
make  it  uncomfortable  for 
golfers  to  maintain  a  solid 
stance  during  crucial  portions 
of  the  swing. 

Several  other  painful 
conditions  can  also  make  the 
perfect  swing  difficult.  Ankle 
arthritis  or  ankle  instability 
can  affect  the  proper  weight 
shift  during  the  golf  swing. 
Some  athletes  and  former 
athletes  develop  chronic 
ankle  instability  from 
previous  ankle  sprains  that 
failed  to  heal  properly. 
Achilles  tendonitis  can  also 
contribute  to  balance- 
threatening  instability  during 
your  golf  swing.  Ill-fitting 
golf  shoes  may  cause  corns 
and  calluses  that  make 
standing  uncomfortable.

that  are  tasty  and  high  in 
calories,  and  these  tend  to  be 
foods  that  are  also 
inexpensive,  widely 

available  and  often  more 
convenient  to  cat. 

•  Older  kids  are 
frequently  on  the  run,  which 
may  mean  not  only  a  lot  of 
convenience  items  and  fast 
foods,  but  erratic  mealtimes, 
too.  Sometimes  a  few  extra 
minutes  of  sleep  in  the 
morning  are  more  enticing 
than  a  healthy  breakfast 
before  school. 

According  to  Luigi 
Gratton,  M.D.,  clinical 
physician  at  L'ni\ersity  ot 
California.  Los  Angeles, 
there  are  some  tactics  that 
parents  can  take  with  their 
kids  to  help  them  to  eat  better. 

"Setting  a  good  example 
is  a  good  first  step."  says 
Gratton.  "Parents  should 
make  every  attempt  to 
demonstrate  healthy  eating 
habits  with  their  kids,  and 
this  includes  having  regular 
mealtimes."  He  also  notes 
that  kids  are  more  likely  to 
eat  healthy  fruits  and  veggies 
when  they  take  part  in  food 
shopping  and  preparation. 

Winning  Strategies 

Children  are  also  more 
inclined  to  eat  healthy  foods 
when  they  are  offered 
frequently  and  regularly. 
Repeated  exposure  to 
\eggies.  for  example,  is  just 
one  way  to  encourage  your 
family  members  to  try  new 
foods.  It  also  helps  to  make 
foods  \isible  and  available 
Try  keeping  a  fresh  bowl  of 
truii  on  the  kitchen  counter, 
or  put  crunch),  cut-up 
NCiiilies  m  the  retru,:erator 


Another  approach  for 
increasing  intake  of  veggies 
IS  by  adding  them  to  familiar 
foods.  Cooked,  pureed 
vegetables  can  be  added  to 
pasta  sauce,  for  example, 
which  boost  nutrition  and 
reduces  the  overall  calories 
in  the  dish.  Cooked  veggies 
can  also  be  added  to  soups, 
stews,  casseroles  and  meal 
lovers-adding  nutntion  and 
llavor. 

Appropnate  snackmg  is 
fine  for  growing  kids,  and 
well-chosen  snacks  can  help 
meet  nutritional  needs.  But  if 
snacking  means  sugary  or 
salty  empty-calorie  items, 
consider  offering  fruits, 
vegetables,  nuts  or  soy  nuts, 
yogurt  or  low -fat  pudding 
instead. 

Smooth  Things  0\er 

Kids  also  enjoy 
smoothies,  and  products  such 
as  Herhalife's  new  line  of 
protein  skakes-designed  to  be 
mixed  with  milk-provide  a 
tasty  way  to  help  kids  meet 
their  vitamin  and  mineral 
needs  for  the  da\  as  a  snack 
or  part  of  a  healthy  meal.  .A 
bit  of  protein  helps  curb 
appetite  and  limit  frequent 
snacking  on  less  healthy 
Items. 

Despite  parents'  best 
efforts,  children's  diets  may 
still  fall  short  in  cenain  ke> 
nutrients.  ".A  dail>  multiple 
\itamin  and  mineral 
supplement  can  help  to  round 
out  an\  potential  NhorttalK 
in  the  diet,"  sd\s  (iratton 
"Look  for  age-appropnate 
products,  which  target  the 
needs  for  the  particular  .ige 
of  the  child  "

Golfers  Can 
Prevent  Rotator- 
Cuff  Injuries 

Q,  A  golfing  buddy 
•  recently  suffered  a 
rotator<uff  injury.  His 
doctor  said  golf  might  be 
the  culprit.  I  play  golf  at 
least  two  times  a  week. 
During  the  .summer 
months  I  play  even  more 
often.  What  can  I  do  to 
lower  my  chances  of  devel- 
oping a  rotator-cuff 
injury? 

A  .The  rotator  cufT  is  a 
•  group  of  four  muscles 
and  their  tendons  that  arc 
responsible  for  the  connec- 
tion of  the  upper  arm  and  the 
shoulder  blade.  Additional- 
ly, the  rotator-cuff  muscles 
hold  the  ball  of  the  upper 
arm  into  the  shoulder  joint, 
allowing  us  to  move  the 
shoulder  joint  tfirough  a 
large  range  of  motion. 

Rotator-cuff  injuries  can 
vary  from  tendonitis  and 
bxirsitis  to  sprains  and  tears. 
Each  results  in  different 
degrees  of  limitations  and 
discomfort.  The  caases  can 
be  from  normal  wear  and 
tear,  a  sudden  fall  where  you 
use  your  arras  to  break  your 
fall,  heavy  lifting,  poor  pos- 
ture or  repeated  stress  upon 
the  shoulder  joint  —  such  as 
when  piaving  golf. 

Repetitive  stress  upon  the 
shoulder  joint  results  in 
many  of  the  rotator-cuff 
mjimes  that  golfers  expen- 
ence.  but  you  can  take  steps 
to  prevent  it.  Before  your 
next  golf  outing,  remember 
these  tips  to  help  you  stay 
mjury-free. 

•  Stay  fit.  Keeping  your 
whole  body  strong  and  flex- 
ible vnE  prepare  it  for  the 
demands  that  golf  imposes. 
whether  playing  or  practic- 
ing The  stronger  your 
shoulder,    back    and    arm 


muscles,  the  more  stability 
you'll  have  around  your 
shoulder  and  elbow  joints, 
which  are  prime  areas  for 
overu.se  injuries. 

•  Warm  up!  Golfers  often 
overlook  the  importance  of 
warming  up.  Take  a  few 
minutes  to  elevate  your 
heart  rate.  This  will  loosen 
up  your  mu.scles  and  joints. 
A  hght  jog  will  do.  Com- 
plete a  stretching  routine 
that  loosens  the  muscles 
from  your  neck,  shoulders, 
back,  forearms,  wrists,  low- 
er back,  legs  and  calf.  \'ou 
may  be  the  only  person  on 
the  course  stretching,  but 
don't  let  that  discourage 
you.  Take  10  to  20  seconds 
for  each  stretch,  and  repeat 
two  or  three  times.  Yes.  this 
may  take  some  time  to  com- 
plete, but  it  will  take  much 
longer  to  recover  from  an 
injury, 

•  Develop  proper  swing 
mechanics.  Take  lessons  if 
needed  to  develop  the  prop- 
er swing  mechanics  for  you. 
Poor  mechanics  over  tune 
can  also  lead  to  rotator -cuff 
injuries. 

•  Finally,  listen  to  your 
body.  When  your  body  is 
tired  or  weak,  take  that  as  a 
warning  to  get  rest.  Fatigue 
makes  you  more  susceptible 
to  mjunes,  so  heed  your 
body's  wanung.

Saloinr's 

Stars 


ARBES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  A  turn  in  a  relationship 
u|>sets  the  amorou-s  Arian, 
who  is  puzzled  by  Cupid's 
romantic  antics.  Be  patient 
and  considerate.  The  confu- 
sion will  soon  sort  itself  out. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  It 's  a  good  time  for  travel - 
loving  Taureans  to  take  off 
for  fun-filled  jaunts  to  new 
places.  And  don't  be  sur- 
prised if  Cupid  tags  along  for 
what  could  be  a  very  eventful 
trip. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  You  appear  to  be  of  two 
minds  about  continuing  a 
relationship  that  seems  to  be 
riding  roughshod  over  your 
emotions.  A  frank  talk  could 
help  you  decide  one  way  or 
the  other. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Stepping  back  from  a 
relationship  problem  pro- 
vides a  new  perspective  on 
how  to  deal  with  it.  Mean- 
while, watch  your  words. 
Something  said  m  anger  now 
could  backfire  later. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  changing  situation  makes 
the  Big  Cat  uneasy.  But  hold 
on  until  things  settle  down 
around  the  4th.  Meanwhile, 
continue  your  good  work  on 
that  still-unfinished  project. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  A  decided 
improvement  in  a  work-place 
situation  results  in  an  unex- 
jjected,  but  very  welcome, 
added  benefit  for  everyone. 
Personal  rclaticwoships  also 
improve. 


LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  Money  matters 
remain  a  bit  unsettled  but  will 
soon  ease  into  the  kind  of  sta- 
bility you  appreciate.  Mean- 
while, an  expanding  social 
life  offers  a  chance  to  make 
new  friends. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  2 1 )  Use  an  unex- 
pected roadblock  in  your 
monetary  dealings  to 
reassess  your  financial  plans 
and  make  changes,  if  neces- 
sary. It  will  soon  be  smooth 
sailing  again. 

SAGriTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21) 
Aspects  of  love  are  strong  for 
bodi'  single  and  paired  Sagit- 
tarians.  Professional  dealings 
also  thrive  under  the  Sag's 
clever  handling  of  difficult 
situations. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  1 9)  Set  a  realis- 
tic goal  and  follow  ii  through 
to  completion.  Remember: 
You're  more  likely  to  impress 
the  right  people  with  one 
well-done  job  than  with  lots 
of  jobs  left  undone. 

.\QUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  You  like  to  plan 
ahead.  That's  fine.  But  be 
prepared  to  make  some 
changes  because  of  an  unset- 
tled period  that  influences 
your  aspects  through  the  4th. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  A  brief  phase  of 
instability  affects  your  usual 
work  cycle.  Use  the  time  to 
catch  up  on  chores  around  the 
house  or  office.  Things  settle 
down  soon  after  the  4th. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
love  being  the  center  of  atten- 
tion and  would  probably  be  a 
big  success  in  show  business.

Phelan  attributed  his  suc- 
cess in  holding  down  the  tax 
rate  to  aggressive  collection 
of  outstanding  revenue,  his 
efforts  to  grow  the  city's 
commercial  tax  base  and  his 
administration's  ability  to 
leverage  outside  funds. 

He  said  he  negotiated 
deals  with  Quincy  CcWlege, 
the  Quarry  Hills  .Association 
and  the  MWRA  to  recogni/e 
more  revenue  for  the  city. 

He  cited  a  number  of 
commercial  initiatixes  like 
the  revitali/ation  of  the 


downtown  area,  expanding 
the  park  at  Crown  Colony,  a 
new  parking  garage  in  North 
Quincy  and  plans  to  develop 
the  Fore  River  Shipyard. 

He  also  pointed  to  a  $5 
million  state  grant  fordown- 
town  Quincy.  a  $6  million 
federal  earmark  for  the 
Quincy  Center  Concourse,  a 
$10  million  state  investment 
in  the  Crown  Colony  ramps, 
and  $7  million  from  the  state 
to  upgrade  Wollaston  Beach. 

"Our  success  is  not  an 
accident,"  he  said,  "its  a  re- 
sult of  a  direct  commitment 
made  to  our  taxpayers  in  my 
2004  inaugural  address.  1 
will  work  hard  to  protect  our 
taxpayers."

HIGH-ARCHED  FOOT 


A  high-arched  foot,  also 
•called  a  Cavus  foot,  can  cause 
problems  for  people  because 
the  high  arch  results  in  the 
heel  and  ball  of  the  foot  ab- 
sorbing more  than  their  fair 
share  of  weight.  People  who 
have  the  condition  will  often 
experience  hammertoes,  cal- 
luses, and/or  pain  when  they 
stand  or  walk.  Having  a  high 
arch  can  also  cause  one's 
foot  to  be  unsteady,  which 
can  lead  to  ankle  sprains. 
Many  neurological  disorders 
results  in  people  having  a 
high  arch,  but  it  can  also  be 
simply  a  structural  abnormal- 
ity. Podiatrists  can  treat  the 
condition  in  several  ways,  de- 
pending on  what  kind  of  prob- 
lems the  high  arches  are  caus- 
ing. In  some  cases,  surgery 
may  be  the  best  option. 

The  first  step  in  treating 
any  foot  problem  is  an  accu- 


rate diagnosis.  This  requires 
a  comprehensive  history, 
physical  exam,  and,  in  some 
cases,  x-rays  and  lab  tests. 
Depend  on  it  -  whatever  is 
causing  your  foot  pain, 
whether  it's  arch  pain  or  an 
injury,  a  hereditary  condi- 
tion, or  any  number  of  ills 
that  can  plague  the  feet  - 
you  can  count  on  us  for  re- 
lief. For  family  podiatry  that 
combines  state  of  the  art 
technology  and  old-fash- 
ioned care  and  compassion, 
call  781-986-3668  for  an 
appointment  at  QUINCY 
MEDICAL  CENTER.  Office 
hours  are  also  available  at 
999  North  Main  St.,  in  the 
Randolph  Medical  Office 
Building,  and  Milton  Medical 
Building  in  Suite  221 . 

P.S:  It  is  important  for 
people  with  high  arches  to 
wear  properly  fitting  shoes.

And  A  Good  Place  To  Cool  Off 


Learning  To  Swim  Draws 
Hundreds  Of  Youngsters 
To  Lincoln  Hancock  Pool 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Every  summer,  for  over  30 
years.  the  Recreation 
Department's  swimming  program 
at  the  Lincoln  Hancock 
Community  School  has  taught 
hundreds  of  Quincy  youngsters 
to  swim  and  this  summer  is  no 
different. 

In  a  city  hke  Quincy.  that's  the 
way  it  should  be.  according  to 
Recreation  Director  Barry  J 
Welch.  Welch  believes  that 
learning  to  swim  is  essential  in 
Quincy  for  safety's  sake  as  well 
as  for  the  fun  of  it. 

"With  27  miles  of  waterfront, 
not  only  is  it  sound  recreationally 
to  teach  as  many  kids  as  possible, 
it's  the  responsible  thing  to  do." 
said  Welch  who  has  directed  the 
program  since  the  pool  opened  on 
July  5,  1976. 

Welch  noted  that  six  lane  pool 
which  holds  4.^0,000  gallons  of 
water  meets  AAU  (Amateur 
Athletic  Union)  standards  and  is 
used  for  regional  high  school 
swim  competitions  and  that

his  staff. 

"They're  a  great  staff.  We're  so 
fortunate.  "  Welch  said. 

Over  the  course  of  a  year,  Quincy 
residents,  young  and  old,  use 
Lincoln  Hancock  pool  for  a  total  of 
2?S)(K)  to  27.fX)0  swim  visits. 

This  year,  nearly  50()  youngsters 
from  6  years  to  17  years  old  are 
learning  to  swim,  perfecting  their 
strokes,  or  earning  certification. 


thanks  to  the  summer  instruction 
program  at  Lincoln  Hancock. 

As  a  result.  evcr\  inch  of  the 
Lincoln  Hancock  pool  is  used  for 
five  hours  straight  every  day. 
There  are  lines  sectioning  off  lour 
classes  an  hour  and  some  40 
youngsters  can  learn  at  the  same 
time.

Would  Replace  Four 
Officials  With  Private  Citizens 

Koch  Calls  For 
Revamping  Of 
License  Board 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom  Koch 
proposes  a  major  revamping  of  the 
City  License  Board  which  would 
replace  the  police  chief,  fire  chief, 
health  commissioner  and  building 
inspector  with  private  citizens. 

Koch,  noting  that  the  lineup  of 
the  board  has  had  no  major  change 
in  nearly  60  years,  said 

"Instead  of  reacting  to  concerns 
of  residents  by  tinkenng  with  the 
time  of  board  meetuigs  by  a  few 
hours,  wc  need  bold,  substantial 
changes  that  will  actually  lead  to 
more  citizen  involvement  on  this 
important  commission.  So  many 
areas  o\'  our  government  need  a 
fresh  look  to  find  ways  to  make  city 
hall  more  open,  responsive  and  re- 
spectful. This  is  a  good  start." 

Four  citizens  would  replace  the 


ex-officio  to  continue  that  offices 
traditional  role  of  official  record- 
keeping, history  of  institutional 
knowledge,  and  management  of  the 
board,  Koch  said. 

One  of  the  citizen  appointments 
would  be  reserved  for  a  resident 
with  a  business  background,  and 
meetings  uould  be  changed  from 
10  a.m.  to  7  p.m.  according  to 
Kochs  proposal. 

"Our  departments  will  lose  no 
oversight  role  with  this  change,  as 
every  office  will  offer  opinions  on 
every  issue  just  like  they  do  today 
for  matters  before  every  other  regu- 
latory board  in  the  city,"  Koch  said. 
"In  many  cases,  the  role  of  depart- 
ment heads  on  the  license  board  is 
redundant,  as  they  must  also  sign 
off  on  various  other  permits.  The 


Chief  Fiuilding  Inspector,  the  difference  with  this  plan  is  we  will 

Health  Commissioner,  the  Fire  not  be  tying  up  some  of  our  most

Farewell  After 

50  Years  At  Front  Desk 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Eisenhower  was  president 
in  1957  when  the  Presidents 
City  Inn  opened  at  845 
Hancock  Street  and  Mary 
Ann  Fit/patrick  took  the  job 
as  first  clerk  on  the  front  desk. 

Nine  presidents  and  half  a 
century  later,  'Mrs.  Fit/'  as 
she  is  called,  was  still  at  the 
desk.  She  retired  last  week 
on  the  same  day  she'd  been 
hired  50  years  earlier. 

The  Job  never  got  old  and 
it  seems  that  neitherdid  'Mrs. 
Fit/..' 

"I'm  here  at  6:.^0,"  Mis 
III/,  now  X4.  said,  adding 
ihal  she  and  the  night  clerk 
siuuvd  notes  and  reviewed 
the  giiesi  list  every  morning 
bv  1  a.m. 

""I'lve  diiys  a  week.  No 
matter  what  Mother  Nature 
sent,  that  woman  made  it  to 
work,"  said  her  daughter. 
DiMinaTrippof  Du.xbury.  On 
those  days  when  her  mother 
couldn't  drive,  Tripp  said  that 
she  walked  four  miles  to 
work. 

Even  when  Mrs.  Fitz  was 
injured  falling  down  the  brick 
stairs  of  a  church  in  2006, 
she  came  to  work,  recalled 
Ashish  Sangani,  manager 
now  of  Presidents'  City  Inn. 

During  that  half  century, 
there  were  times  when  the 
Red  Cross  sent  fire  victims 
or  disaster  victims  to  the 
motel  on  Route  3A.  Mrs.  Fitz 
was  there. 

Tripp  described  her 
mother  as  a  'proper'  lady  who 


.MARY  ANN  Fn  /.PATRICK 


doesn't  even  own  a  pair  of 
shorts  or  slacks.  She  only 
wears  dresses  or  skirts,  even 
when  gardening. 

Even  so,  said  Tripp,  she 
never  hesitates  to  pitch  in 
and  work  with  her  hands 
helping  people  in  need, 
whether  those  stranded  in 
blizzards  or  evacuees  from 
fires. 

Nothing  changed  on  her 
last  day  of  work  either. 

Before  the  farewell  cake 
was  cut  and  a  small  gather- 
ing said  their  good-byes,  the 
five  foot  one  inch  Mrs.  Fitz 


was  at  her  post  at  President's 
Inn,  still  enthusiastic  about 
the  Inn  and  still  one  of 
Quiney' s  biggest  boosters. 

"I  love  Quiney.  It's  a  mar- 
velous city,"  she  said  on  her 
last  morning,  noting  that  it's 
halfway  between  Cape  Cod 
and  Boston,  that  it  has  the 
Red  Line,  and  has  such  spe- 
cial history. 

"This  is  tourist  time;  it's 
the  best  time,"  she  said,  then 
outlined  the  marvels  of 
Quiney.  "  Year  in  and  year 
out,  she  sent  tourists  to  the

Quincy,  Boston  Seek  No  Dump 
Waste  Rule  For  Boats  In  Harbor 


In  1982,  Quincy  was  the 
leader  in  tiling  suit  to  clean 
up  Boston  Harbor  that  led  to 
the  creation  of  the  Massa- 
chusetts Water  Resource 
Authority  (MWRA). 

Now,  25  years  later. 
Quincy  is  joined  by  Boston 
in  an  effort  to  pressure 
Coastal  Zone  Management 
and  the  EPA  into  banning 
waste  dumping  from  boats  in 
the  harbor. 

"Quincy  began  the  effort 
to  clean  up  Boston  Harbor 
and  now  this  is  a  natural  step 
toward  ensuring  a  cleaner 
harbor,"  said  Mayor  William 
Phelan. 

"We  have  made  great 
progress  in  25  years,  but 
there  is  more  to  be  done. 

"We  cannot  ask  our  rate 
payers  to  pay  higher  bills  to 
clean  up  the  harbor  while 
boat  owners  are  still  permit- 
ted to  dump  untreated  waste 
from  their  boats  into  the  har- 


bor which  wc  are  paying  to 
clean. 

"1  am  confident  that  most 
boat  owners  already  embrace 
this  concept  and  are  doing 
the  right  thing  already." 

Phelan  joined  Boston 
Mayor  Tom  Menino,  EPA 
Regional  Director  Robert 
Vamey  and  State  Environ- 
mental Secretary  Ian  Bowles 
Monday  in  announcing  their 
plan  for  a  "no  discharge 
zone"  for  boats  in  the  harbor. 

The  Quincy  mayor  cited 
the  city's  efforts  to  provide  a 
pump-out  boat  and  private 
pump-out  facilities  at  mari- 
nas and  yacht  clubs. 

The  new  cleanup  effort 
comes  on  the  25th  anniver- 
.sary  of  the  day  Assistant  City 
Solicitor  William  Golden 
was  out  jogging  and  stepped 
in  untreated  waste  washed  up 
on  WoUaston  Beach. 

The  result  was  a  suit  by 
the  administration  of  Mayor 


Frank  McCauloy  to  clean  up 
Boston  Harbor  and  the  cre- 
ation of  the  MWRA  ti>  do  the 
job. 

Phelan  cited  the  work 
done  by  City  Councillor 
Doug  Gutro  and 

Harbormaster  Patrick 
Morrissey  in  preparing  the 
zoning  application  and  City 
Councillor  Leo  Kelly  and  his 
Quincy  Beaches  and  Coastal 
Commission  in  bringing 
people  back  to  the  beaches. 

"It's  through  organiza- 
tions like  the  Beach  Com- 
mission and  the  Friends  of 
Wollaston  Beach  that  people 
are  realizing  that  they  can 
help  make  a  difference  in 
getting  people  to  enjoy  this 
incredible  resource,"  said 
Phelan. 

"It  is  encouraging  that  it 
is  once  again  difficult  to  get 
a  parking  spot  along 
Wollaston  Beach." 


Traffic  Signal  Upgrade 
At  N.  Quincy  Intersection 


QUINCY  RESIDENTS  Jean  Redely  Louis  (left)  and  Barbara  Lok  (right)  recently  completed  the 
61st  Citizens'  Legislative  Seminar,  which  met  once  a  week  for  five  consecutive  weeks  for  a  three- 
hour  session  at  the  State  House  to  observe,  participate  in  and  examine  the  legislative  process. 
They  were  invited  by  Sen.  Michael  Morrissey  (center). 

'Jumping  Jammies'  At  Library  Aug.  14 


The  traffic  signal  control- 
ler at  Hancock  and  East 
Squantum  Streets  are  being 
upgraded  this  week. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  DPW  Commissioner 
Steve  O'Donnell  said  the 
system  will  be  improved  by 
adding  a  left  turning  arrow 
from  east  Squantum  and 
West  Squantum  Streets. 

"We  recognize  that  this 
intersection  is  in  need  of  up- 
grade and  we  have  worked 
to  improve  pedestrian  safety 
and  the  traffic  flow  all 
around  the  high  school  area," 
said  Phelan.  "1  believe  that 
better  traffic  coordination  is 
good  for  both  pedestrians 


and  motorists  alike." 

O'Donnell  cited  dedi- 
cated drop-off  lanes  and  co- 
ordination with  the  police 
department  as  improvements 
made  last  year  to  improve 
pedestrian  safety. 

"Another  school  year  will 
soon  be  upon  us  and  we  will 
continue  to  look  for  ways  to 
make  things  safer  for  chil- 
dren, parents,  and  other  pe- 
destrians that  cross  this  inter- 
section," said  O'Donnell. 
"The  school  committee  and 
the  school  community  have 
been  very  helpful  in  offering 
ideas  and  suggestions  and  we 
will  continue  to  work  with 
the  community  to  make 


things  better."

patent  in  May  1933.  though 
it  was  declared  invalid  in

On  Being  Grandma  Or  Grandpa 


SHARRON 


You  know,  you  really  haven't  lived  until  you've 
become  a  grandmother  or  grandfather. 

Doe.sn't  matter  whether  they  call  you  Grandma  or 
Nana,  Grandpa  or  Papa  or  some  other  .special  name,  it's 
one  of  the  greatest  milestones  to  reach  in  life. 

The  Senior  Center  at  Beechwoodon  the  Bay  recently 
held  a  "Grandparents  Are  Grand  Day"  as  a  sort  of 
tribute. 

Sharron  Beals,  executive  director  and  proud 
grandmother  herself,  of  eight,  invited 
seniors  to  discuss  their  favorite 
grandparent  sayings,  some  of  them 
froin  grandchildren: 

A  few  examples: 

•  "A  Nana  is  old  on  the  outside  but 
young  on  the  inside." 

•  "Grandmas  and  Nanas  are  moms 
with  lots  of  frosting." 

•  "What  a  bargain  grandchildren  are!  I  give  them  my 
loose  change,  and  they  give  me  a  million  dollars  worth 
of  pleasure." 

•  "Grandmothers  are  just  'antique  little  girls.'" 

•  "A  grandparent  is  a  babysitter  who  watches  the  kids 
instead  of  television." 

•  "My  grandkids  believe  I'm  the  oldest  thing  in  the 
world.  And  after  two  or  three  hours  with  them,  I  believe 
it,  too." 

•  "Grandpas  never  run  out  of  hugs  or  cookies." 

•  "Nanas  and  Grammas  hold  our  tiny  hands  for  just  a 
little  while,  but  our  hearts  forever." 

•  "An  hour  with  your  grandchildren  can  make  you 
feel  young  again.  Anything  longer  than  that,  and  you 
start  to  age  quickly." 

•  "Perfect  love  sometimes  does  not  come  until  the 
first  grandchild." 

•  "Becoming  a  grandparent  is  wonderful.  One  moment 
you're  just  a  parent.  The  next  you  are  all  wise  and 
prehistoric." 

•  "Grandkids  don't  stay  young  forever,  which  is  good 
because  Granddaddies  have  only  so  many  horsey  rides 
in  them." 

•  "Grandmas  and  Nanas  always  made  you  feel  she 
had  been  waiting  all  day  just  to  see  you  and  now  the  day 
was  complete." 

•  "It's  such  a  grand  thing  to  be  a  mother  of  a  mother. 
That's  why  the  world  calls  her  grandmother." 

•  "Grandchildren  are  God's  way  of  compensating  us 
for  getting  old." 

•  "I  wish  1  had  the  energy  that  my  grandchildren  have- 
if  only  for  self-defense." 

•  "Grandmother-wonderful  mother  with  lots  of 
practice." 

•  "You  do  not  really  understand  something  unless 
you  can  explain  it  to  you  grandmother." 

•  "Grandmother-grandchild  relationships  are  simple. 
Grandmas  are  shoil  on  criticism  and  long  on  love." 

•  "Nobody  can  do  for  little  children  what  grandparents 
do.  Grandparents  sort  of  sprinkle  Stardust  over  the  lives 
off  little  children." 

•  "If  becoming  a  grandmother  was  only  a  matter  of 
choice  I  should  advise  every  one  of  you  straight  away 
to  become  one.  There  is  no  fun  like  it  for  old  people." 

•  "It's  amazing  how  grandparents  seem  so  young 
once  they  become  one." 

•  "Grandparents  are  similar  to  a  piece  of  string-handy 
to  have  aroimd." 

Seek  Medical  Gear  To  Loan 


•  "One  of  the  most  powerful  handclasps  is  that  of  a 
new  grandchild  around  the  finger  of  a  grandpa." 

Take  a  bow,  all  you  Nanas  and  Grampas.

BILL  MURPHY  has  a  top-notch  security-protection 
firm.  Executive  Protection  International,  based  in  North 
Weymouth. 

And  offers  a  free  service  he  hopes  won't  grow: 

Guarding  the  homes  of  servicemen  and  women  killed 
in  Iraq  or  Afghanistan  during  their  funerals. 

"It's  the  least  we  can  do  for  those  who  are  doing  so 
much  for  us  over  there,"  Murphy  said. 

He  has  provided  that  service  twice  so  far. 

"I  hope  we  don't  have  to  do  it  again,"  he  says.  "We 
want  to  see  them  come  home  alive.  But  if  we  are  needed 
we  will  be  honored  to  be  there  to  do  our  little  part." 

Murphy  was  former  Mayor  Jim  Sheets'  security 
driver  on  various  occasions  such  as  going  to  Logan 
Airport  or  to  state-mayor  meetings. 

Murphy  was  also  deputy  chief  of  the  Quincy  Auxiliary 
Police  during  Sheets'  administration. 

His  firm  recently  was  called  on  to  guard  $3  million  in 
watches  at  a  watch  manufactures  convention  at  the 
Boston  Harbor  Hotel.

George,  of  course,  has  been  city 
councillor,  state  representative  and 
district  attorney  and  is  still  practicing 
law. 

He  has  also  generously  supported 
his  alma  mater,  U-Mass  Amherst 
where  he  was  a  basketball  star,  and  has  awarded 
thousands  of  dollars  in  scholarships  to  Quincy  and 
North  Quincy  graduates  going  there.  Not  to  mention  the 
many  other  causes  he  has  backed. 

Although  the  big  party  was  in  Sagamore  there  was  a 
little  surprise  one  at  his  North  Quincy  law  office  two 
days  before. 

That's  when  Ginny  Holdstock,  a  long-time  friend 
and  her  dog,  Dharma,  dropped  by  with  a  birthday  cake. 
Congratulations,  kid.

the  health  warnings. 

The  state's  Coasts  weep  program  now  in  its  20'*'  year, 
each  fall  has  teams  of  volunteers,  cleaning  trash  along 
the  beaches. 

At  Wollaston  Beach  last  fall,  according  to  a  recent 
report,  one  team  picked  up  almost  1 ,400-cigarette  butts- 
in  just  an  hour  and  a  half. 
That's  a  lot  of  cigarettes.  And  disregard  for  others.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


THIS  IS  A  1911  real  photo  postcard  showing  the  begin- 
ning of  a  new  quarrying  operation  somewhere  in  West 
Quincy.  The  person  who  took  this  picture  and  mailed 
the  postcard  noted  the  scene  had  changed  substantially 
as  progress  on  the  quarry  was  moving  quickly.  Shown 
here  are  two  of  the  Holmes  derricks  first  used  for  quar- 
rying by  Solomon  Willard  in  1826  at  the  Bunker  Hill 
Quarrj  here  in  Quincy.  For  well  over  100  years  these 
derricks  were  ubiquitous  in  Quincy.  They  were  used  in 
every  quarry  and  stone  shed  throughout  West  and  South 

^^ 


Quincy.  By  the  time  the  last  quarry  ceased  operation 
here  in  1963  there  had  been  55  quarry  holes  opened, 
and  at  the  industry's  peak  in  1900  there  were  over  140 
companies  engaged  in  the  granite  industry.  They  all 
had  one  or  more  of  these  derricks.  The  derricks  and 
their  guy  wires  dominated  the  skyline.  The  last  stand- 
ing Holmes  derrick  in  Quincy  was  dismantled  in  2000 
at  the  former  Settimelli  stone  yard  on  Totman  Street. 
They  are,  however,  still  in  use  elsewhere.  To  contact

By  FRANK  Mc(  U  I.FV 

■There  arc  ,'^5  men,  now  employed  h\  the  highway  and

days   pay."  (Jeoiiie   ^'anington. 
exeeutive  diieetor  ol   the  Quiney 
Taxpayei's  Assoeiation,  charged. 

Charles  R.  Heihert,comniissit)ner 
ol  public  works,  denied  the  charge. 
He  pointed  out.  however,  that  it  rs 

true  occasionally  that  men  decline  "■""~-""'^— — — "^ 
to  go  out  on  ruhhish  and  garbage  trucks  on  the  grounds  that 
physical  inliiniities  make  it  impossible  lor  them  to  do  the

pay. 

A  HKLIPORT  FOR  Ql  INCY? 

The  Patriot  Ledj^er  editorialized  on  a  possible  future 
heliport  for  the  city  ol  Quincy.  The  paper  noted  that  within 
three  years  helicopter  service  should  be  common  in  most 
large  cities  in  the  United  States. 

"The  helicopter  will  eventually  be  used  as  we  use  buses 
today.  There  will  probably  be  helicopter  service  trom  Qumcy 
direct  to  Logan  Airport,  to  Plymouth,  to  the  Cape,  to  the 
North  Shore.  Seems  to  us  that  its  time  Quincy  started 
thinking  about  its  air  transportation  future."'

Circulating  Petition  Opposes 
Track  At  Pageant  Field 


As  this  "done  deal"  (ac- 
cording to  the  mayor's  of- 
fice) of  a  track  at  Pageant 
Field  comes  ever  closer  I  am 
stepping  up  my  efforts  to 
stop  this  ill-conceived 
project. 

I  have  recently  begun  ap- 
proaching fellow  Quincy 
citizens  with  a  petition  op- 
posing the  track.  Interest  in 
this  petition  has  been  great 
with  many  concerned  citi- 
zens stepping  forward  to  sign 
it.  I  have  also  engaged  in 
some  enlightening  discus- 
sions. Here  are  a  few  of  the 
opinions  expressed  to  me  by 
fellow  citizens. 

Quincy   residents   ex- 


pressed five  great  reasons  for 
keeping  Pageant  Field  as  is: 

It's  a  beautiful  green 
space  with  a  unique  and  var- 
ied landscape. 

Its  layout  of  parkland 
combining  trails,  ball  fields 
and  picnic  areas  create  and 
ideal  multi-use  facility,  ac- 
cessible for  ALL  Quincy 
residents  to  enjoy  year- 
round. 

Its  central  location  is 
within  walking  distance  or  a 
short  drive  from  most  neigh- 
borhoods. 

There  are  already  four 
special  use  fields  in  the 
Merrymount    Park    area 


which  are  fenced  in. 

The  continued  trends  to- 
wards closing  off  more  and 
more  open  space  for  sports 
teams  and  that  ilk  disenfran- 
chises the  average  citizen. 

By-and-large  citizens 
who  oppose  the  track  project 
at  Pageant  Field  (not  a  track 
per  se)  feel  that  they  are  not 
only  being  shut-out  of  the 
city's  park  system  in  favor  of 
organized  sports  but  also  that 
the  city  has  left  many 
projects  unfinished. 

For  example:  The  "For- 
mal Gardens""  and  adjacent 
WWII  Memorial  on 
Hancock  Street  in  Wollaston 


continue  to  be  an  unsightly 
mess.  My  last  letter  (.luly  1 1 ) 
addressed  the  sorry  state  o\ 
this  area.  1  am  sad  to  say  that 
in  the  proceeding  weeks  the 
dirt  piles  have  only  grown 
bigger. 

Since  I  can"t  reach  every 
citizen  who  opposes  this 
project,  1  respectfully  request 
that  you  print  my  letter  and 
also  the  URL  so  these  citi- 
zens can  e-sign  the  petition.

Thank  you  for  your  con- 
sideration.

Suggests  Alternating  Time  Of  License  Board  Meeting 


It  seems  an  issue  as 
simple  as  moving  License 
Board  meetings  from  10  a.m. 
to  4  p.m.  should  not  gener- 
ate so  much  debate. 

Just  because  the  License 
Board  has  been  meeting  in 
the  morning  for  65  years 
doesn't  make  it  the  best  time. 
As  far  as  the  business 
community's  opposition  to 


the  moving  time,  I  don"t  get 
their  opposition. 

The  government  of 
Quincy  may  operate  during 
the  daytime  hours  but  the 
City  of  Quincy  operates  24- 
hours  a  day. 

Perhaps,  the  License 
Board  could  alternate  the 
times  of  its  meetings.  Why 
not  alternate  between  the 


current  10  a.m.  start  and  a 
later  perhaps  .'S  p.m.  start  so 
that  as  many  Quincy  resi- 
dents and  businesses  as  pos- 
sible can  all  take  part  in  the 
workings  of  our  government. 

Everyone  should  be  in  fa- 
vor of  opening  up  govern- 
ment to  more  people. 

Zoning  and  licensing  is- 
sues affect  everyone  and  ev- 


eryone should  get  an  oppor- 
tunity to  express  his  or  her 
views. 

Government  is  our  busi- 
ness. Either  we  run  it  or  it 
runs  us.  This  is  a  partnership 
between  those  who  govern 
and  the  governed.  A  partner- 
ship needs  to  listen  to  each 
other.

Commends  After  School  Child  Care  Program 


My  appreciation  and 
gratitude  goes  to  the  Quincy 
After  School  Child  Care 
(QASCC)  program. 

For  the  past  two  school 
years  my  daughter  has  been 
enrolled  in  this  program,  and 
it  gave  me  enormous  peace 
of  mind  to  know  that  she  was 
being  cared  for  in  a  safe. 


stimulating  environment. 
The  staff  at  the  Bemazzani 
site  always  offered  a  choice 
of  fun  activities  (after  home- 
work was  completed),  which 
were  super\'ised  in  a  clam, 
competent  manner.  Because 
the  program  is  offered  at 
most  elementary  schools, 
there  are  no  transportation 


issues.  In  addition  to  the  con- 
venience and  wonderful 
care,  the  cost  of  the  program 
is  reasonable. 

A  huge  thank  you  to  the 
fanta.stic  QASCC  staff  at  the 
Bemazzani  School.  Thanks 
also  to  all  who  have  made 
this  program  possible,  in- 
cluding Jo-Ann  Bragg  and 


Doug  Veeder,  who  were  in- 
strumental in  initiating  After 
School  Child  Care  in  Quincy. 
The  parents  in  this  city  are 
very  fortunate  to  have  this 
program  available.

Making  Movie  Star  Sunglasses 
Project  At  Crane  Library 


Making  movie  star 
sunglasses  is  the  "Catch  the 
Beat"  arts  project  for  the 
week  of  Aug.  13. 

in  the  following  week  of 
Aug.  20,  the  theme  will  be 
musical  mobiles. 

The  Art-To-Go  project  is 
a  weekly  art  activity  available 
for  children  throughout  the 
city  this  summer. 

The  projects  are  planned 
and  easy  enough  for  toddlers 


and  pre-schoolers  to  do  with 
an  adult's  help  and  are  free 
form  enough  for  school-age 
children. 

The  Art-To-Go  travels 
citywide  throughout  each 
week.  Participants  can  drop 
in  anytime  on  specific  days 
from  2  p.m.  to  4  p.m.  at  the 
libraries  to  create  their 
project. 

On  Mondays,  supplies  for 
the  projects  are  available  at 


the  Thomas  Crane  Main

Kilroy's  Miniature  Golf 
Coure  Open  For  Second  Season 


Kilroy's  Miniature  Golf 
Course  opened  its  second 
sea.son  recently  at  the  former 
Fore  River  Shipyard,  located 
off  Route  3A  at  the  rotary 
just  before  the  Fore  River 
Bridge. 

Both  the  USS  Salem  and 
the  U.S.  Naval  Shipbuilding 
Museum  are  at  the  same 
location,  which  offers 
families  a  day  of  fun  and 
history  at  a  small  price. 
Visitors  can  enjoy  both  the 
museum  and  a  round  of  mini- 
golf  for  just  $8  a  person. 

Each  of  the  1 8  holes  on 
the  course  features  a  replica 
of  one  of  Quincy's  historic 
site,  such  as  the  two  Adams' 
birthplaces,  the  Granite  Rail 
and  the  Hancock  Cemetery. 

The  miniature  golf  course 
is  open  seven  days  a  week 


from  10  a.m.  to  8  p.m.  Also 
open  seven  days  a  week  is 
the  USS  SALEM  where  the 
hours  are  10  a.m.  to  5  p.m. 

"Kilroy's  Mini  golf  and 
the  USS  SALEM  are  a  terrific 
day  trip  for  all  ages,"  said 
Michael  Condon,  Executive 
Director  of  the  museum. 
"What  makes  this  a  nice  trip 
is  the  hands-on  nature  of  the 
museum  and  the  sheer  scale 
of  the  ship." 

"This  ship  is  enormous 
and  you  touch  all  the  displays; 
kids  love  it,"  notes  Frank 
Campbell,  the  ship's 
Volunteer  Coordinator. 

In  fact,  the  USS  Salem  is 
a  7 1 6  foot-long  United  States 
Navy  heavy  cruiser  gunship 
and  is  the  only  remaining  ship 
of  this  type  in  the  world.  It 
was  built  in  the  former  Fore 


River  Shipyard  where  it  is 
permanently  moored  and  on 
display. 

Last  summer  was  the  first 
for  Kilroy's  Mini  Golf  and  it 
was  an  instant  success, 
according  to  Condon  and 
Campbell. 

Visitors  may  enjoy  the 
golf-ship  combination  ticket 
for  $8  or  just  tours  of  the  ship 
and  its  museums  for  $5.  The 
tours  are  both  escorted  and 
self-guided.  Discount 
admission  is  available  to 
groups  off  ten  or  more. 

Kilroy's  and  the  USS 
SALEM  are  located  at  739 
Washington  St.,  Quiney,  at 
the  foot  of  the  Fore  River 
Bridge.  For  additional 
information,  call  617-479- 
7900  or  check  the  Web  site  at 
www.USS-Salem.org.

I  Cont'd  From  Hci^e  2) 
Adams  Mansion,  told 
them  to  sit  on  the  Iront  porch 
and  be  transported  back  in 
time.  Then,  she'd  map  out 
Quincy  Center  and  I'nited 
First  Parish  Church  and  Old 
City  Hall. 

When  F'residents'  City 
Inn  first  opened,  there  were 
16  units,  recalled  Mrs.  b'h/ 
who  worked  first  lor  the 
Strout  family,  then  for  E:ast- 
ern  Na/arene  College  w  hich 
bought  the  inn  and,  five  years 
ago,  sold  it  to  Rina  Inc. 

in  the  beginning,  there 
was  a  switchboard,  "a  mon- 
ster up  on  that  wall,"  she  ex- 
plained, adding  she  was  de- 
lighted years  later  when  the 
telephone  equipment  was 
downsized  to  desk-si/e,  "I 
was  so  glad."' 

Now  there  is  the  Internet 
and  business  is  booming,  ac- 
cording to  Sangani  who  said 
clients  come  first  for  the 
lower  rates  near  Boston,  but 
they  stay  to  enjoy  Quiney. 
Mrs.  Fit/  adjusted  to  the 
changing  times. 

"Theie  were  three  own- 
ers," Mrs.  Fit/  said,  adding 


'They  each  kept  me.  I  started 
50  years  ago  today.  That's 
why  1  stayed  til  today." 

When  Mrs.  Fitz  told 
Sangani  she  was  leaving,  he 
wanted  to  have  a  party  to 
honor  her. 

"I  was  going  to  put  up  a 
tent,  Fverybody  loves  her, 
our  contractors,  our  work- 
ers, our  guests,  everybody. 
She  has  been  like  our 
grandmom."  said  Sangani. 

Sangani  said  that  Mrs. 
Fit/  said  no  way,  no  party, 
and  told  him,  "This  is  a  very 
sad  moment.  1  don't  want  to 
celebrate." 

Both  Mayor  William 
Phelan  and  the  Quiney  Cit\ 
Council  issued  proclama- 
tions honoring  Mary  Ann 
Elizabeth  Fitzpatrick  for  her 
work,  example  and  her  dedi- 
cation to  Quiney. 

Mrs.  Fitz  may  be  retired 


from  one  job  now,  but  she's 
not  done  working.  Accord- 
ing to  her  daughter,  she  has 
contacted  a  local  church  and 
has  volunteered  at  a  nearby 
rectory  on  Saturdays. 

Sangani,  also,  described 
how  important  Mrs.  Fitz' 
family  was  to  her.  Mrs.  Fitz 
and  the  late  Joseph 
Fitzpatrick,  a  soldier  in  World 
War  II,  were  married  in  St. 
Ann's  Church  on  Hancock 
Street.  Fitzpatrick  served  in 
Japan  and  was  present  at  the 
sunender  of  the  Japanese. 

Mrs.  Fitz'  son,  the  late 
Paul  Fitzpatrick,  was  a  Hall 
of  Fame  basketball  playerand 
a  physical  education  teacher 
in  the  Quiney  schools.  Her 
grandson  Robert  is  a 
firelighter  w  ith  the  Duxbury 
Fire  Department  and  heads 
the  Diving  and  Recovery 
team.

Neighborhoods 
Program  Starts 


C'itv  Hall  is  going  on  the 
road  again. 

"Neighborhood  First!" 
eommunity  meetings  were 
held  in  Beechwood  Knoll 
and  Montclair  last  week  and 
next  week  they'll  be  at  the 
Snug  Harbor  School  in 
Germantown  Tuesday  and 
the  Wollaston  School  Thurs- 
day. 

Both  meetings  will  fea- 
ture a  free  community  barbe- 
cue and  will  begin  at  5  p.m. 

""Neighborhood  First!" 
has  elicited  the  strongest 
community  response  of  any 
program  that  I  have  seen," 
said  Mayor  William  Phelan. 

""We  have  empowered  our 
residents  to  help  determine 
where  best  to  focus  our  re- 
sources. 


■".As  a  result,  we  ha\e 
lapped  into  a  great  resource 
of  energy,  enthusiasm  and 
advocacy  for  our  city's  great 
neighborhoods. 

'"Quincy  residents  have 
direct  access  to  their  mayor, 
their  department  heads  and 
the  resources  used  to  im- 
prove their  city." 

The  aim  of  the  meetings 
are  to  update  the  neighbor- 
hoods on  the  progress  made 
on  the  priorities  established 
by  neighborhood  commit- 
tees last  year  and  chart  the 
course  for  the  future. 

Phelan  cited  a  $2.2  mil- 
lion investment  in  sidewalk 
repairs,  improvements  to 
Sailors'  Pond,  creation  of  a 
code  enforcement  officer, 
and  the  success  of  the  Ille-

Ann  Yeomans  Elected 
Human  Rights  Chair 


Ann  Yeomans.  the  past 
treasurer,  has  been  elected 
chair  of  the  Quincy  Human 
Rights  Commission,  suc- 
ceeding Ed  Grogan,  who 
stepped  down  after  three 
terms. 

Nancy  McDonald  was 
named  to  another  term  as 
secretary  and  Kumu  Gupta 
was  elected  vice  chair  and 
Harvey  Solomon  treasurer. 

The  Human  Rights  Com- 
mission, which  organizes  the 
annual  Martin  Luther  King

The  commission  was  re- 
cently recertified  as  a  No 
Place  To  Hate  community  by 
the  Anti-Defamation  League 
of  New  England.  The  city 
has  been  one  since  2001. 

Commissioners  were 
scheduled  to  participate  in  a 
Brockton  Rox  baseball  game 
last  night  (Wednesday), 
sponsored  by  the  Verizon 
Wireless  HopeLine  Program.

Puleo  Calls  For  $1M  Quality 
Fund  At  No  Cost  To  Taxpayers 


City  Workers,  State  Funding 
Make  For  Safe  Teen  Summer 


School  Committee  candi- 
date Nick  Puleo  has  called 
for  the  creation  of  a  $1  mil- 
lion quality  fund  to  provide 
Quincy's  schools  with  addi- 
tional resources  for  class- 
rooms and  extra-curricular 
activities. 

Puleo  says  he  has  devel- 
oped a  plan  to  implement  the 
program  at  no  cost  to  taxpay- 
ers. 

"An  extra  $1  million  for 
our  schools  would  make  an 
incredible  difference  in 
terms  of  funding  for  comput- 
ers, curriculum  improve- 
ments, arts  programs,  and 
athletics,"  said  Puleo.  "The 
most  remarkable  part  is  that, 
under  the  current  funding 
structure,  we  can  accomplish 
this  at  no  cost  to  the  taxpayer, 
and  without  detriment  to  any 
other  city  services." 

Under  his  proposal,  Puleo 
would  allow  the  school  dis- 
trict to  create  the  fund  using 
revenue  generated  from  fed- 
eral reimbursements. 
Quincy's  schools  already 
earn  well  over  $1  million  a 
year  in  federal  Medicaid  re- 
imbursements for  services 
provided  to  eligible  students, 
he  said.  Currently,  the  reim- 
bursements are  deposited  in 
the  City's  general  fund,  and 
the  schools  do  not  have  ac- 
cess to  it. 

Puleo  noted  that  the  city 
posted  substantial  surpluses 
in  recent  years,  and  that  the 
creation  of  this  fund  would 
not  hann  the  city's  financial 
well  being.  He  added  that 
since  the  funding  was  al- 
ready included  in  the  overall 
financial  picture,  there 
would  be  no  additional  cost 
to  the  taxpayers.

NICK  PULEO 

"It's  a  win-win  situation 
for  everyone,"  said  Puleo. 
"With  the  right  financial  ex- 
pertise and  the  political  will 
to  improve  quality  in  our 
schools,  we  can  easily  make 
this  reality." 

Puleo  pointed  to  a  num- 
ber of  programs  within  the 
school  system  that  have 
proven  very  successful,  but 
have  often  struggled  to  raise 
the  funds  needed  to  operate. 


In  addition,  he  stated  that 
computers  and  Internet  ac- 
cess within  the  schools  are 
substantially  lacking  in  qual- 
ity and  reliability.  The  cre- 
ation of  a  quality  fund  would 
allow  schools  to  address 
these  problems  outside  of 
usual  budget  constraints,  he 
said. 

"It's  time  to  broaden  the 
dialogue,  and  start  thinking 
about  how  we  can  improve 
quality  in  every  classroom 
across  the  city,"  said  Puleo. 
"In  the  world  today,  children 
need  21"  century  skills.  We 
need  to  take  innovative  steps 
to  help  ensure  their  success." 

Those  with  questions 
about  Puleo's  plan  may 
email  him  at 

puleo2007@gmail.com.  or 
write  to  him  at:  31  Acton  St., 
Quincy,  MA02170. 


Strategic  placement  of 
city  personnel  and  a  state 
grant  program  are  credited 
with  keeping  the  peace  this 
summer  at  two  popular  teen- 
age gathering  places. 

The  Charles  Shannon 
Cirant  allowed  the  city  to 
place  a  police  officer  and 
recreation  leaders  at  the  Ster- 
ling Middle  School  play- 
ground and  the  Fenno  Street 
Courts. 

The  city  personnel  inter- 
acted with  the  teens,  orga- 
nized games  and  kept  an  eye 
on  both  popular  teen  hang- 
outs. 

"This  program  was  an 
outstanding  success  this 
year,"  said  Mayor  William 
Phelan.  "Too  often  we  tell 
teens  what  not  to  do;  this 


year  we  told  them  what  they 
could  do. 

"Our  police  department 
and  recreation  employees 
built  valuable  relationships 
v\  ith  arCii  teens  and  pro\  idcd 
them  with  opportunities  to 
have  tun  on  summer  eve- 
nings without  getting  into 
any  trouble. 

"I  hope  to  continue  to  ex- 
pand this  program  in  the 
coming  months  and  years." 

The  prttgram  at  Sterling 
was  a  continuation  of  last 
year's  pilot  program  to  give 
teens  positive  options  for  the 
summer  months,  allowing 
them  to  play  basketball,  do 
community  service  and  leam 
job  skills. 

Phelan  cited  City  Coun- 
cillor Jay  Davis  and  former 


Sterling  Middle  School  Prin- 
cipal Earl  Met/ler  for  their 
work  on  the  program. 

At  the  Fenno  Street 
Courts,  the  program  targeted 
a  location  that  often  had  100 
i>r  more  teens  hanging  out 
last  summer  by  placing  a 
police  officer  at  the  site  and 
organizing  a  new  basketball 
league. 

"I  believe  the  positive  ac- 
tivity chases  away  the  lure  of 
trouble  for  young  people," 
said  Phelan.  "This  program 
provided  our  teens  a  chance 
to  make  positive  decisions 
and  avoid  trouble. 

"I  want  to  thank  Gover- 
nor Patrick  and  our  elected 
state  delegation  for  their  sup- 
port of  this  important  grant 
program."

and  tools  needed  for  research. 

They  must  prepare  a 
bibliography  orr  their 
research,  submit  a  "hand- 
drawn  map  of  their  country" 
and  are  expected  to  type  at 
least  half  of  the  required  22 
paragraph  final  report. 

"They  have  a  keyboarding 
class,  "  Gibbons  said, 
referring  to  instruction  at  the 
school's  mini-computer  lab. 

According  to  Gibbons,  the 
students  must  use  three 
resources  to  study  their 
piirticular  county .  They .  then, 
develop  their  notes  on  color- 
coded,  numbered  cards  with 
a  timeline  for  each  study  area. 


REPRESENTING  ITALY  at  Merrymount  School's  Heritage 
Fair  was  Brendan  Cunningham.

Merrymount  School  Heritage  Fair. 


In  addition,  they  write  two 
to  three  letters  to  embassies, 
consulates  or  officials  of  their 
country  of  choice. 

"They're  so  excited  when 
they  get  answers."  Gibbons 
said,  describing  the 
brochures,  pamphlets  and 
maps  addressed  to  the  fifth 
graders. 

In  addition,  the  students 
share  information  with  each 
other  about  the  culture,  the 
dress,  the  food,  music, 
history,  population,  and 
geography  of  their  parents' 
or  ancestors'  homeland. 

The  youngsters  bring  in 
foods,  coins,  dolls,  books  and 


recipes  from  their 
grandparents'  or  parents' 
native  lands. 

As  the  school  year  winds 
down,  the  students  prepare 
for  the  annual  Heritage  Fair 
and  invite  their  parents  and 
the  rest  of  the  310  students  at 
Merrymount  School. 

This  year,  the  52  fifth 
graders  represented  19-20 
countries.  In  the  past, 
Merrymount  students  always 
had  a  large  representation 
from  Ireland,  according  to 
Gibbons  who  said  recent 
classes,  also,  included  Cape 
Verdi,  Morocco,  Malaysia, 
Cambodia,  Haiti,  Taiwan  and 
Vietnam.

Koch  Calls  For 
Revamping  Of 
License  Board 


(Conl'J  From  Pai^e  I ) 

dates  back  to  the  iy4()s,  and 
it  is  clearly  time  lor  a 
change." 

The  License  Board  regu- 
lates business  in  the  ciiy, 
most  importantly  the  distri- 
bution and  oversight  o\'  li- 
quor licenses  for  bars,  restau- 
rants and  package  stores. 

Koch  said  his  proposal  is 
not  a  criticism  ot  any  deci- 
sions made  by  the  current 
board,  but  is  instead  aimed 
at  fostering  more  community 
involvement  and  improving 
efficiency  for  taxpayers. 

From  walking  neighbor- 
hoods, attending  coffee 
hours,  and  speaking  to  resi- 
dents across  the  city,  Koch 
said  residents  clearly  believe 
annual  property  tax  increases 
should  at  least  lead  to  more 


efficient,  effecti\e,  and  re- 
sponsive goveminent. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
recently  asked  the  License 
Bt>ard  tt>  chanue  its  meetine 
times  from  10  a.m.  to  4  p.m. 
after  complaints  from  some 
residents. 

"if  a  resident,  or  business 
owner  for  that  matter,  can't 
make  a  meeting  at  10  a.m..  I 
don't  see  4  p.m.  as  much 
easier  for  anybody."  Koch 
said.  "Instead  of  a  half- 
hearted reactionary  move. 
let's  dig  deeper  and  lead  on 
this  issue." 

The  proposal,  Koch  said, 
will  also  serve  another  pur- 
pose: Guarantee  that  a  ma- 
jority of  board  members  are 
Quincy  residents.  Koch 
noted  that  just  three  years 
ago,  a  majority  of  the  board 


members  li\ed  outside  o\ 
Qumcy. 

Koch's  plan  will  need  to 
be  filed  in  the  fcnni  of  a 
home-rule  petition  .uui  ap- 
proved by  the  City  Council 
and  the  state  legislature. 
Koch  said  he  will  file  the  leg- 
islation in  .lanuary. 

"Let's  start  having  real 
discussions  about  this  and  so 
many  other  issues,  not  just 
one-sided  directives,"  Koch 
said.  "I'd  say  e\ery  idea  is 
on  the  table.  I'm  sure  city 
councillors  ha\e  their  own 
thoughts  on  this,  so  let's  talk 
about  it.  That's  good  govem- 
ment,  and  that's  leadership." 

The  License  Board  took 
the  issue  of  4  p.m.  meetings 
under  advisement  July  24 
and  continued  the  meeting 
and  discussion  to  Tuesday, 
Aug.  14. 


Introduction  To  Knitting

p.m.  at  the  Wollaston  Branch 
of  the  Thomas  Crane  Public 
Library,  41  Beale  St., 
Wollaston. 

Participants  will  be  taught 
the  three  basic  steps  of 


knitting  from  the  first  cast 
on,  to  the  basic  knit  stitch,  to 
the  cast  off. 

These  three  basic  steps  will 
open  the  door  to  a  world  of 
crafting  possibilities, 
according  to  the  program 
planners  who  said  that  each 
child  will  make  his  or  her 
very  own  small  item. 


The  participants  will  create 
either  a  simple  stuffed  animal 
to  hang  from  their  backpack 
or  a  small  bag  to  hold  change 
or  a  holder  for  a  cell  phone. 

Space  is  limited  so 
registration  is  required. 
Interested  persons  can  call  or 
visit  the  Wollaston  Branch  at

A  Homegrown 

Solution  to  Hard 

Water  Spots 


a: 

spots  I 


,Whaf  can  I  use  to 
remove  hard  water 
spoLs  from  a  double-pane 
window?  The  water  spots 
came  fn>m  the  garden 
sprinkler.  —  Virginia  B., 
via  e-mail 

A  .'"Hard"  water  is  gen- 
•  erally  called  .such 
because  of  tfie  amount  of 
mmeraf  deposits,  especially 
calcium,  it  contains.  It's 
common  throughout  the 
United  States,  as  groundwa- 
ter often  runs  through  sec- 
tions of  the  earth  containing 
limestone,  chalk  or  similar 
minerals.  Magnesium,  iron 
and  other  minerals  are  also 
typically  present  in  hard 
water. 

Well  water  —  from  which 
some  sprinkler  systems 
draw  their  water  —  can  con- 
tain much  higher  levels  of 
minerals  than  municipal 
water,  which  has  reduced 
mineral  content  due  to  the 
treatment  process.  Because 
the  mo.st  common  issue  with 
hard  water  is  the  buildup  of 
mineral  scale  on  surfaces 
over  time,  homeowners 
using  well-water-fed  sprin- 
kler systems  should  check 
the  sprinkler  heads  through 
out  the  watering  sea.son  to 
keep  scale  from  clogging  the 
nozzles. 

Which  leads  us.  .sort  of. 


back  to  hard  water  spots  on 

windows.  Ilicse  also  can 
(Kcur  with  nagging  frequen- 
cy and  are  difficult  to  clean 
off;  mineral  salts  adhere  to 
the  glass  quite  easily.  And 
depending  on  the  mineral, 
store-bought  window  clean- 
ers may  not  have  any  effect 
and  can  be  counterproduc- 
tive. 

A  homegrown  solution 
that  may  work  is  to  apply  a 
thin  coat  of  oil  (lemon  oil  or 
even  vegetable  or  olive  oil) 
to  the  glass  and  let  it  sit  for 
about  an  hour.  The  oil  can 
soften  the  mineral  scale  and 
help  lift  it  away  from  the 
glass.  Then,  make  a  thick 
paste  of  water  and  corn- 
starch (or  baking  soda)  and 
dab  on  with  a  soft  cloth  or 
toothbrush,  cleaning  one 
section  at  a  time  in  a  circular 
motion. 

Clean  the  entire  window- 
pane  with  warm  water  and 
mild  dish  soap  and  check  for 
remaining  water  spots;  spot- 
clean  with  the  paste  and 
toothbrush  and  rinse.  Once 
all  the  spots  are  gone,  use  an 
ammonia-based  window 
cleaner  to  finish.

Cool  News  For  Homeowners 


(NAP.S)  -  The  high  cost 
of  keeping  your  home 
comtbrtahle  doesn't  have  to 
get  you  hot  uiiiler  the  collar  if 
you  heed  a  lew  hints: 

•  Delerniine  how  airtight 
anil  msulaleil  your  home  is. 
Check  iluctuork  loi  leaks, 
tlie""K""\alueol  \i)urhonies 
insulation  (living  area, 
hasement. crawl  space, attic ), 
any  leaky  seals  or  gaps 
around  doors  and  windows, 
douhle-gla/ed  windows  (is 
there  moisture  inside  or  are 
double-gla/etl  win  clows 
"cloudy"'). 

•  Ask  your  air- 
conditioning  c(»ntractor  to 
give  your  home  acheckup.  If 
yovir  home  system  is  more 
than  10  years  old,  it  may  not 


be  at  the  height  of  elTiciency, 
so  even  if  it  is  in  good 
condition,  changes  in 
technology  have  probably 
created  units  that  can  ofter 
more  alfordable  comfort. 
With  new  l.VShBR 
( Seasonal  Hnergy  Efficiency 
Ratio)  high-efficiency  units, 
homeowners  should  expect 
to  see  their  air  conditioners 
and  heat  pumps  translate 
energy  used  into  affordable 
comfort. 

•  Have  a  contractor  check 
your  system  to  determine 
how  efficiently  it  cools.  Is  it 
properly  sized  (one  sized  too 
large  will  do  the  job,  but  at  a 
price  that  is  more  expensive; 
and  one  that  is  too  small  will 
constantly  cycle  and  run  up 


bills  while  not  delivering 
comfort)?  Would  a 
dehumidifier  help  (taking 
some  moisture  out  of  the  air 
could  make  your  home  feel 
cooler  without  touching  the 
thermostat)?  Is  the  air  filter 
working  properly  and  are 
there  other  small  problems 
that  could  escalate  into  larger 
ones  and  affect  the  entire 
system  if  left  unconected? 

•  Changing  the  thermostat 
setting  a  degree  or  two  can 
save  you  many  dollars.  A 
programmable  thermostat 
remembers  and  adjusts 
heating  and  cooling  times 
even  when  you  forget. 

•  Pull  the  shades  on  the 
side  of  the  house  where  the 
sun  is  in  warm  weather  to 


ease  the  load  on  your  air 
conditioner. 

•  Don't  let  children  (or 
anyone  else)  stand  in  open 
doors  minutes  at  a  time. 

•  Get  a  service  contract. 
When  choosing  an  air- 
conditioner  contractor, 
consider  one  with  NATE 
certified  air-conditioning  or 
heat  pump  technicians. 
Certified  professionals  have 
passed  a  stringent  test  that  is 
national  in  scope.  You  can 
find  contractors  employing 
NATE  certified  technicians 
at  www. natex.com. 

•  Keep  these  tips  in  mind 
and  you  may  find  you  can 
keep  more  money  in  your 
wallet  and  more  comfort  inn 
your  home.

not  always  used?  Basements 
can  be  damp  and  leaky.  These 
conditions  can  create  the 
perfect  conditions  for  the 
growth  of  mold  and  mildew, 
which  can  be  musty,  ugly 
and  difficult  to  keep  in  check. 

However,  it's  easy  to 
reclaim  your  basement-and 
transform  it  into  a  beautiful 
living  space-with  state-of- 
the-art  products  and  a  few 
tips  from  the  experts  at 
Zinsser. 

Reclaim  your  leaky 
basement  -  Excessive 
moisture  can  make  a 
basement  unusable.  Worse 
yet,  it  can  cause  structural  rot 
and  decay,  which  promotes 
the  growth  of  mold  and 
mildew  and  creates  high 
humidity  levels  throughout 
your  entire  home.  That's  why 
water  problems  should  be 
taken  care  of  immediately. 

Fortunately,  it's  easy  to 
keep  water  out-and  keep 
mold  and  mildew  away-by 
painting  your  concrete 
basement  walls  with  two 
coats  of  waterproofer  that 
contains  mold  and  mildew

Planning  For  Your  Future 


How  Close  Are  You 
To  Your  Financial  Independence? 


Dollars 
and  sense 

by  David  Uffington 


( NAPS )  -  You  can  combat 
many  of  the  things  that  can 
stop  you  from  enjoying 
financial  freedom:  debt,  over- 
spending, poor  credit  history, 
bad  investments,  lack  of 
information-to  name  only  a 
few  of  them. 

With  so  many  factors  to 
consider  when  getting  your 
funds  on  the  right  track, 
however,  it  can  be  easy  to 
lose  sight  of  the  basic  steps 
that  can  make  your  finances 
sparkle. 

Consider  the  following 
tips  from  the  woman  known 
as  the  Internet's  No.l 
personal  finance  columnist, 
Liz  Pulliam  Weston  of  MSN 
Money,  to  help  you  get  on 
the  road  to  financial  liberty: 

Break  out  the  BBQ -Just 
barbecuing  one  night  a  week 
instead  of  eating  out  can  save 


you  a  lot  of  cash. 

"Don't  spend  more  than 
you  earn.  It  sounds  easy  but 
many  people  struggle  with 
overspending,"  Weston  said. 
One  of  the  best  ways  to  curb 
this  problem  is  to  track  where 
you're  spending  money  with 
a  program  like  Microsoft 
Money. 

For  many  people,  large 
purchases  are  not  to  blame 
for  their  money  problems;  it 
is  more  likely  that  small  to 
medium-sized  purchases  are 
eating  up  their  checking 
account. 

Once  you've  added  up 
how  much  you  spend  dining 
out  or  going  out  for  coffee  in 
a  month,  it's  easy  to  identify 
less  expensive  alternatives 
and  reduce  the  amount  you 
spend. 

Try    a    buy-nothing 


month  -  Led  by  Weston, 
do/ens  oii  people  posting  on 
the  ^'ourMoney  message 
board  on  MSN  resolved  to 
spend  money  only  on 
necessities  for  one  month. 
The  typical  amount  saved 
was  $400.  The  experiment 
helped  people  realize  how 
much  of  their  spending  was 
voluntary-and  often 

unnecessary. 

Being  debt  free  is 
something  to  celebrate  - 
Many  people  believe  that 
credit  card  debt  is  normal  in 
the  United  States  but  Federal 
Reserve  Systems  figures 
show  that  the  majority  of  U.S. 
households  have  no  credit 
card  debt  and  that  the  median 
balance  among  those  that  do 
is  only  $2,200.  People  who 
pay  off  their  credit  card  debts 
not   only    improve   their 


finances  but  also  boost  their 
credit  scores,  the  three-digit 
numbers  lenders  use  to  gauge 
credit  worthiness. 

Get  finance  savvy  -  It's 
always  a  good  idea  to  learn 
as  much  as  you  can  about 
money  and  finances.  Web 
sites  such  as  MSN  Money 
are  great  resources  to  help 
you  stay  informed  with  up- 
to-the-minute  financial  data, 
including  access  to  the  insight 
of  money  experts,  tax  tips, 
valuable  stock-trading  tools 
and  investment  information.

finance  experts  who  write  a 
twice-weekly  column  for

Your  Lawn  &  Garden 


Remedies  For  A  Stressed-Out  Lawn 


By  JOHN  BllECHNER 

(NAPS)  -  Good  weather 
is  meant  for  picnics, 
barbecues  and  spending  time 
with  family  and  friends 
outdoors.  Life  is  carefree  and 
it's  time  to  relax.  There' s  only 
one  problem:  the  effect  that 
seasonal  stress  has  on  the 
green  lawn  that  will  serve  as 
the  backdrop  of  memories 
for  years  to  come. 

Most  homeowners  cringe 
at  the  thought  of  having  a 
dried-out,  dull  lawn  due  to 
the  stress  that  summer  heat 
puts  on  grass  roots.  How  are 
they  going  to  deal  with  the 
reality  of  it  come  the  fall 
season?  There "s  only  one 
solution:  proactive 

preparation. 

This  is  a  stressful  for 
lawns.  Hot  days  in  the  early 
summer  set  the  stage  for  a 
relentlessly  hot.  dry  August 
and  stressed-out  turf.  The 
high  summer  temperature 
and  lack  of  moisture  cause 
most  lawns  to  go  dormant  for 
several  weeks,  just  in  time 
for  fall,  leaving  lawns 
desiccated  and  homeowners 
with  a  bad  return  on  their 
investment. 

Lawn  Doctor,  whose 
speciahsts  help  homeowners' 
lawns  recover  from  stressful 
summer  conditions  with 
periodic  inspections  and 
treatments,  recommends: 

Mowing 

•  When  mowing,  raise  the 
mowing  height  to  no  lower 
than  three  inches.  This  height 
helps  drive  the  roots  deeper 
into  the  soil  so  they're  able  to 
pick  up  moisture.  And  longer 
grass  blades  will  shade  the 


soil,        reducing        soil 
temperature  and  heat  stress. 
Water  And  Aerate 

•  Consistently  water  the 
lawn  with  approximately 
one-inch  of  water  each  week. 

•  Remember  to  aerate  the 
lawn  in  the  fall  so  grass  roots 
have  a  better  chance  of 
getting  oxygen  for  good 
growth. 

•  Homeowners  should  be 
able  to  continue  enjoying  a 


lush,  green  lawn  all  season 
long.  The  best  way  to  beat 
the  heat  is  to  maintain  your 
lawn  with  proper  mowing 
and  watering,  protecting  your 
investment  so  your  lawn 
looks  beautiful  and  remains 
healthy  throughout  the 
season. 

•  Changing  your  lawn  care 
practices  now  is  essential  for 
beautifying  your  lawn  and 


home.  Continue  to  enjoy  your 
time  on  your  yard-without 
having  to  worry  about 
summer  stress.

Real  Estate  Fraud 

The  number  of  cases  of 
mortgage  and  real  estate 
fraud  continue  to  soar,  and 
law-abiding  buyers  and  sell- 
ers across  the  country  are 
inadvertently  getting  pulled 
into  fraudulent  deals  with- 
out realizing  it.  Often  the 
first  clue  an  innocent  buyer 
or  seller  has  that  something 
is  wrong  is  when  the  author- 
ities show  up  at  the  closing 
table  and  arrest  everyone. 

Here  are  the  possible  play- 
ers in  a  fraudulent  real  estate 
transaction: 

Appraiser  —  Inflates  the 
value  of  the  house  or  hides 
the  true  value  from  the  mort- 
gage company. 

Lender  —  Alters  income, 
employment  and  credit  doc- 
uments or  creates  false  ones 
for  unqualified  buyers;  or 
.  works  with  appraiser  to 
I  increase  the  value  of  the 
house.  Often  the  lender  gets 
a  kickback  on  the  inflated 
loan  amount. 

Title  company  —  Misrep- 
resents current  and  previous 
.  ownership     and     produces 

forged  deeds. 

I     Buyer  —  I^ts   someone 

1  else  use  their  name  and  cred- 

I  it  information  in  exchange 

for  cash,  or  who  takes  cash 

back     at     closing,     never 

intending  to  make  any  of  the 

mortgage  payments. 

Seller  —  Raises  the  price 
of  the  house  and  gives  cash 
back  at  closing  or  agrees  to  a 
silent  second  mortgage  that 
the  lender  doesn't  know 
about. 

Real  estate  agent  —  Pulls 
comparables  in  a  neighbor- 
hood to  justify  the  higher 
price  of  a  house,  or  steers 


unqualified  buyers  to 
lenders  who  will  handle 
"creative"  loans. 

Notary  —  Notarizes  docu- 
ments without  adequate  evi- 
dence of  who's  signing  the 
paperwork. 

Even  the  most  vigilant 
buyer  or  seller  can  inadver- 
tently be  sucked  into  a  real 
estate  scheme.  Before  you 
buy  or  sell,  take  a  look  at 
"Protect  Yourself  from  Real 
Estate  and  Mortgage  Fraud," 
by  Ralph  R.  Roberts  and 
Rachel  Dollar  (Kaplan 
2007).  Due  out  this  sunmier, 
the  book  walks  you  through 
every  possible  scenario  and 
shows  how  you  can  protect 
yourself. 

Rules  of  thumb: 

•  If  it  isn't  in  writing,  it's 
probably  illegal.  If  every 
dollar  in  a  transaction  isn't 
accounted  for  on  the  HUD-1 
Settlement  Statement,  it's 
evidence  of  fraud. 

•  If  cash  exchanges  hands 
after  closing,  it's  evidence  of 
fraud. 

•  If  you're  pressured  to  lie 
about  anything  at  all,  it's 
evidence  of  fraud. 

As  an  indication  of  the 
seriousness  of  real  estate 
crimes,  a  bill  has  been  intro- 
duced in  Congress  to  make 
available  $65  million  to  state 
and  federal  regulators  for  the 
pro.secution  of  the  criminals.

Arms  That  Look 
Good  in  Tank  Top 

Q,I  would  like  to  feel 
•  comfortable  wear- 
ing sleeveless  shirts,  hu\ 
my  arms  have  NO  muscle 
tone.  What  type  of  exercis- 
es can  I  do  to  tone  the  mus- 
cles of  my  arms  with  hopes 
of  wearing  a  tank  top  by 
the  end  of  summer? 

A, Toned  arm  muscles 
•  are  the  desire  of  many 
exercisers  when  setting 
their  fitness  goals.  The 
appearance  of  strong,  lean 
and  toned  muscles  can  be 
achieved  through  a  compre 
hensive  exercise  program 
that  not  only  f(Kuscs  on 
appeiiriuice  but  also  stabili 
ty.  muscle  balmice  and  func- 
tion, 

Tlif  muscles  most  fvopic 
want  to  tone  are  the  triceps 
{back  of  the  arm),  biceps 
(front  of  the  arm)  and  del- 
toids (shoulders).  Eiach  of 
these  muscle  groups  must 
work  properly  for  you  to 
maximize  function,  strength 
and  stability.  Although  your 
goal  may  be  to  tone  your 
arms,  an  exercise  program 
that  targets  the  entire  body 
will  help  you  reach  your 
goals. 

As  you  probably  know, 
you  cannot  spot  train  and 
target  just  the  arms  to  pro- 
duce results.  Fortunately, 
we  use  our  arms  while 
working  other  muscle 
groups  such  as  the  chest  and 
back,  so  although  you  arc 
not  focusing  just  on  the 
arms  in  those  exercises,  they 
have  to  work  in  order  for 
those  exercises  to  be  com- 
pleted. 

Great  exercises  for  the 
arms   include  bicep  curls. 


triceps  extensions  and 
shoulder  raises.  These  exer- 
cises can  be  done  with 
dumbbells,  resistance 

bands,  body  weight  or  with 
exercise  machines.  Be 
patient  when  trying  new 
exercises,  and  complete  sets 
and  repetitions  that  will 
allow  you  to  pa>gress  as  you 
get  stronger. 

Don't  forget  that  exercises 
such  as  push-ups,  pull-ups, 
chest  press  and  rows  also 
require  the  arm  muscles  to 
work,  even  though  they  are 
not  isolated.  Exercises  for 
your  lower  body  may  not 
seem  to  have  anything  to  do 
with  your  arms,  but  they  can 
help  lower  your  btxJy  fat 
and  increase  your  overall 
lean  muscle  mass. 

Give  yourself  several 
weeks  to  begin  to  see 
results,  and  maintain  a  con- 
sistent exerci.se  regime.  Try 
not  to  overtrain  in  trying  to 
reach  your  goals,  and  allow 
your  body  time  to  recover 
between  higher-intensity 
workouts. 

Remember  that  nutrition 
and  other  positive  hfestyle 
choices  also  are  important 
in  getting  you  in  your 
sleeveless  shirts  in  no  time. 
Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

creased from  about  25*5^  to 
21%  between  1988  and  2004. 
In  the  same  period,  tooth  de- 
cay in  the  permanent  teeth  of 
teens  has  decreased  hum  68% 
to  59%.  That's  the  good  news. 
The  bad  news  is  that  tooth 
decay  in  the  baby  teeth  of  2- 
to  5 -year-olds  has  increased 
from  24%  to  28%  from  1988 
to  2004.  This  should  serve  as

Now  Is  The  Time  To  Talk 
To  Kids  About  Not  Smoking 


(NAP.S)  -  Youngsters 
l()\c  the  freedom  of 
unsupervised  summertime 
lun  and  time  to  play  with 
Iheir  friends.  But  with  these 
freedoms  also  come  risks  of 
which  all  parents  should  be 
aware. 

Many  children  during 
summer  will  be  approached 
with  the  opportunity  to  try 
their  first  cigarette.  While  it 
is  unrealistic  for  parents  to 
suixTvisctheirchildren  every 
moment  of  every  day  this 
summer,  your  values  and 
beliefs  should  he  known  and 
understood.  That  is  why  now 
is  an  ideal  time  for  parents  to 
talk  to  their  children  about 
how  they  feel  about  smoking 
and  other  negative  behaviors. 

Dr.  Michael  Popkin, 
author,  parenting  expert  and 
spokesman  for  Talk  Karly, 
Talk  Often  sponsored  by 
Lorillard  Tobacco 

Company's  Youth  Smoking 


Prevention  Program,  says 
children  are  trying  their  first 
cigarette  as  early  as  age  8, 
with  the  majority  trying  it 
between  the  ages  of  12  and 
14.  Most  of  these  children 
are  approached  by  a  friend 
who  they  consider  to  be 
"cool"  and  therefore  has 
influence  on  their  decisions. 
Popkin  recommends 

establishing  clear  guidelines 
for  your  child's  behavior. 

Make  Expectations 
Very  Clear 

"Taking  the  time  to  sit 
with  your  child  and  agree  on 
clear  guidelines  for  behavior 
can  pay  off  greatly  when  your 
child  has  to  make  a  choice 
about  whether  or  not  to  try 
smoking."  says  Popkin.  "1 
use  the  term  'problem- 
prevention  talk,'  which  is  a 
dialogue  between  you  and 
your  child  that  makes  your 
expectations  of  him  or  her 
verv  clear." 


The  problem-prevention 
talk  consists  of  five  steps: 

1.  Identify  potential 
problems  and  risks. 

2.  Share  your  thoughts 
and  feelings  about  these 
problems  and  acknowledge 
your  child's  thoughts  and 
feelings. 

3.  Generate 
guidelines  through 
brainstorming  and 
negotiations  (within  limits 
that  you  can  live  with). 

4.  Decide  on  logical 
consequences  for  violating 
the  guidelines  (if  necessary). 

5.  Follow  up  to  ensure 
that  guidelines  were  followed 
and  to  enforce  consequences 
(if  necessary). 

Create  A  Written 
Contract 

Creating  a  written  contract 
between  you  and  your  child 
that  clearly  lists  your 
expectations  and  the  logical 


consequences  that  you  will 
apply  if  these  expectations 
are  not  met  ids  another 
suggestion  made  by  Popkin. 
"Written  contracts  ensure 
that  the  is  no 
miscommunication  about 
your  child's  decision  not  to 
smoke,"  says  Popkin. 

Dr.  Popkin  is  one  of  the 
nation's  foremost  experts  on 
parenting  education,  with 
more  than 

25  years  of  experience 
helping  families 

communicate  about  tough 
topics  like  smoking.

Travel  Health  Update 

Putting  Medications  On  Your  Packing  List 


(NAPS)- Here's  a  healthy 
reminder:  The  next  time  you 
travel,  don't  forget  to  pack 
your  prescription  drugs. 

How  To  Travel  With 
I)ruj»s 

The  Academy  of 
Managed  Care  Pharmacy 
says  the  safest  way  to  travel 
with  medications  is  to  keep 
them  in  their  original 
containers,  but  that's  not 
alw;i\s  practical,  especially 
for  short  trips.  You  don't 
want  to  take  along  several 
bottles  of  30  or  more  capsules 
for  a  lour-day  weekend.  Judy 
Cahill,  the  Academy's 
executive  director,  advises, 
"Take  along  just  enough  to 
last  through  the  entire  trip, 
with  perhaps  two  or  three 
extra  days'  supply  in  case  of 
travel  delays  or  trip 
extensions."  And  keep  them 
with  you-don't  take  a  chance 
on  checked  luggage. 

The  next  best  thing  to  do 


is  to  place  your  medications 
in  a  pill  carrier;  many  types 
are  readily  a\ailable  in  any 
drugstore.  In  addition,  write 
down  all  the  medications  you 
are  taking  on  a  sheet  of  paper, 
including  the  medication's 
name,  the  doctor's  name  and 
phone  number,  how  much  to 
take  and  when  to  take  it.  If 
there's  any  chance  of 
confusion,  include  a 
description  of  the  colors, 
shapes  and  sizes. 

Your  Pharmacist  Can 
Help 

Many  pharmacies  have 
these  records  and  would  be 
happy  to  provide  you  with  a 
copy.  Often,  when  you  pick 
up  your  drugs  at  the 
pharmacy,  you  can  get  a 
duplicate  label.  Peel  it  off  the 
backing  and  put  it  on  a  sheet 
of  paper  with  all  your  other 
medication  and  keep  this  list 
in  a  safe  place.  Make  sure  the 
doctor's  name  and  phone 


Health  Classes  For  Seniors, 
Physically  Challenged 


Healing  Tree  Yoga  and 
Wellness  Center,  605 
Hancock  St.,  Quincy,  is 
offering  two  new  classes  for 
seniors  and  the  physically 
challenged  this  fall. 

*Tai  Chi  for  Seniors"  will 
run  Friday  afternoons  at  3 :  30 
p.m.  starting  Sept.  14.  The 
class  offers  relief  from 
aithritis  and  other  chronic 
healdi  issues. 


"Yoga  for  MS  and  Other 
Physically  Challenges"  will 
be  held  Mondays  at  3:30  p.m. 
starting  Sept.  10.  The  class  is 
designed  for  people  living 
with  MS,  fibromyalgia  and 
arthritis. 

Both  classes  require  pre- 
registration  of  $100  for  10 
classes.  For  more 
information,  call  617-770- 
4800. 


numberare  included  foreach 
medication.  When  you  travel, 
bring  along  a  photocopy  of 
the  list.  If  you're  worried 
about  mixing  up  your 
medications,  make  a  copy  of 
each  label  and  put  the  copy  in 
a  secure  plastic  bag  or 
container  with  the 
medications. 

Your  Health  Insurer 
Can,  Too 

If  you  have  prescription 
insurance,  you  can  ask  the 
plan  to  send  you  this 
information  or  help  you 
access  your  records  on  its 
Web  site.  If  you  get  drugs  at 
more  than  one  pharmacy  or 
clinic,  your  insurance  plan 
will  probably  have  he  most 
complete  records.  Be  sure  to 
pack  your  prescription  I.D. 
card,  too,  and  keep  a  copy  of 
both  the  front  and  the  back  of 
the  card  in  a  separate  place. 

With  this  information, 
you'll  be  able  to  easily 
replace  any  medications  you 
may  need  and,  if  you  fall  ill 
unexpectedly,  you  can  easily 
communicate  which  drugs 
you  are  taking  to  a  pharmacist 
or  doctor.  Your  plan  should 
be  able  to  help  you  manage 
this  process  if  you  call  the 
customer  service  nimiber. 

Who  Needs  It? 

It's  important  to  do  this 
for  all  family  members,  from 
toddlers  to  seniors,  because 
you  never  know  who  might 
fall  ill  or  become  injured  and 
imable  to  communicate. 


Further  Precautions 

If  you  take  drugs  that 
might  react  with  other  drugs 
or  foods  or  if  you  have  a 
serious  medical  condition 
that  might  leave  you 
unconscious,  talk  to  your 
doctor  about  a  bracelet  or 
pendant  with  that  information 
and  keep  your  medical 
information  in  an  easy-to- 
find  spot,  such  as  a  purse, 
pocket  or  wallet. 

If  you're  taking  a  trip  of 
more  than  a  month,  you  may 
need  to  bring  along  an  extra 
supply  or  refill  your 
prescriptions  where  you'  11  be 
staying.  Call  your  insurance 
plan  and  ask  whether  you 
can  get  additional  medication 
for  the  length  of  your  stay,  or 
whether  it  has  a  pharmacy 
network  in  that  location.  It's 
a  good  idea  to  bring  a 
photocopy  of  your  records 
for  the  temporary  pharmacy. 
Some  have  the  ability  to 
obtain  your  records 
electronically,  for  even 
greater  safety  and 
convenience.  If  your  plan 
does  have  a  pharmacy  in  the 
temporary  location,  don't 
forget  to  bring  your 
prescription  card,  so  your 
medications  can  be  paid  for 
just  like  at  home.  If  not,  keep 
all  of  yoiu"  receipts  so  you 
can  be  repaid.

Event  Raises  $120,000  For  Jimmy  Fund  To  Date 

Patrick  White 

Baseball  Tournament 

Remembers  'A  Great  Kid' 


By  DOMENIC  POLI 

Bob  Griffin  was  listening 
to  the  Red  Sox  game  on  the 
drive  home  one  day  about 
seven  years  ago  when  he 
heard  a  familiar  voice  com- 
ing out  of  the  car  radio. 

It  was  a  boy  on  his  Quincy 
Youth  Baseball  team  - 
Patrick  White  of  Quincy.  He 
was  plugging  the  Jimmy 
Fund  in  a  radio  advertise- 
ment with  the  organization's 
chairman  -  and  former  Red 
So.x  second  baseman  -  Mike 
Andrews. 

Patrick  himself  had  been 
diagnosed  with  Rhabdomyo- 
sarcoma, a  form  oi  tissue 
cancer,  about  a  year  earlier. 

Hearing  his  player's 
shout-<)ut  for  such  a  great 
cause  hit  Griffin  with  an  idea 
-  a  baseball  tournament  to 
raise  money  for  the  Jmimy 
Fund. 

Patrick's  parents,  Barbara 
and  Paul  'Whitey"  White, 
loved  the  idea  and  it  soon 
snowballed  mto  the  Annual 
Jimmy  Fund  Baseball  Tour- 
nament. 

With  all  proceeds  going  to 
the  Jimmy  Fund,  teams  from 
Quincy,  Hinghani,  Duxbury 
and  other  .Massachusetts 
towns  pay  to  enter  the  tour- 
nament every  year 

Patrick  played  in  the  tour- 
nament, too. 

"When  Bob  started  the 
tournament  it  was  like  the 
best  thing,  and  [Patrick]  en- 
joyed it  and  he  got  to  play  in 
it,"  Barbara  said.  "It  was 
something  to  look  forward  to 
every  summer." 

In  the  fall  of  2005,  how- 
ever, the  world  provided  yet 
another  reminder  that  only 
the  good  die  young,  when 
Patrick  passed  away  at  the 
age  of  15.  After  his  six-plus 
year  battle  with  cancer,  he 
was  laid  to  rest  at  Cedar 
Grove  Cemetery  in 
Dorchester. 

Anyone  who  ever  knew 
him  describes  Patrick  Toland 
White  as  having  been  a  trc- 

NQHS  Girls' 
Soccer  Alumni 
Game  Aug.  18 

The  North  Quincy  High 
Schoolgirls'  soccer  team  will 
be  hosting  its  1"  annual 
alumni  soccer  game,  August 
18  at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium.  The  game  is 
scheduled  to  begin  at  9:30 
a.m. 

Any  former  NQHS 
alumni  who  wishes  to  play  in 
the  game  should  contact  head 
coach  Paul  Bregoh  at  (617) 
471-2867. 


mendous  human  being.  A 
Quincy  native,  Patrick  is  said 
by  friends  and  family  mem- 
bers to  have  been  a  fierce 
competitor  with  a  giving 
heart,  who  lived  to  play  be- 
tween the  white  lines. 

"He  was  a  great  kid,"  Grif- 
fin said.  "He  was  very  sup- 
portive of  his  teammates  and 
also  very  supportive  of  other 
kids  who  were  struggling 
with  the  battle  of  cancer.  [He 
would]  go  to  the  Jimmy 
Fund  clinic  and  help  there 
with  the  kids." 

Patrick  spent  much  at  the 
chnic  doing  his  best  to  lift  the 
spirits  of  the  younger  kids 
sick  with  cancer. 

For  the  six  years  fought 
his  illness,  he  was  in  and  out 
of  treatment.  But  his  love  for 
Americas  pastime  never 
wavered. 

"Patrick  loved  baseball.  It 
was  his  favorite  thing  to  do." 
Barbara  said.  "Now  that  he's 
gone,  1  think  he's  probably 
enjoying  it  from  heaven  - 
that  there's  still  baseball  go 
ing  on,  with  his  name  on  it." 

Last  weekend  saw  the  7th 
Annual  Patrick  While  Base- 
ball Tournament,  at  Adams 
bield.  It  was  the  first  year  the 
tourney  held  Patrick's  name. 
Fast  year  it  was  known  as  the 
Annual  Jiminy  Fund  Base- 
ball Tournament  in  honor  of 
Patrick  White.  Before  that,  it 
was  simply  the  Annual 
Jimmy  Fund  Baseball  Tour- 
nament. 

Out  of  the  ten  team  field, 
the  top  three  teams  advanced 
to  play  in  the  final  round. 
Duxbury,  the  number  three 
seed,  and  Quincy,  the  num- 
ber two  seed,  squared  off  in 
the  semifinals.  Duxbury  de- 
feated Quincy  6-2  to  ad\  ance 
to  the  championship  game 
against  Weymouth. 


In  the  championship 
game,  Duxbury  beat 
Weymouth  4-2  to  earn  a  first- 
place  finish. 

But  winning  is  not  what 
the  tournament  was  about. 

"We  feel  it  is  a  great  honor 
for  our  family  and  for 
[Patrick],"  Paul  White  said. 
"We  really  appreciate  that 
the  people  of  the  community 
take  the  clYon  to  v\  ork  or  par- 
ticipate. It  jusi  means  a  lot  to 
us." 

'It's  funny  how  much  its 
grown,"  he  went  on  to  say. 
"When  we  started  it  was  just 
a  little  tournament  o\  er  at  the 
Mitchell  and  McCoy  fields 
and  we  had  a  little  grill  in 
between  the  two  fields  and  a 
few  burgers  were  sold.  It 
takes  a  lot  of  hard  work  by 
Bob  Griffin  and  Jane 
[Warwick)  and  Cindy 
jOuelelte]  and  [Bob's  wife] 
Rosanne  [Russell]" 

The  generosity  of  the 
Quincy  communit\  has 
raised  a  great  deal  of  mone\ 
to  lead  the  tight  oi'  cancer 
over  the  years. 

Fach  team  must  pay  $350 
to  play  in  the  tournament, 
and  Griffin  said  many  teams 
had  to  be  turned  down  for 
lack  of  bracket  space.  And 
the  money  made  from  the 
concessions  is  also  donated 
to  charity,  after  expenses.  All 
proceeds  will  go  to  Pediatric 
Solid  Tumor  Program  at 
Dana-Farber/Children's 
Hospital  Cancer  Care  Ser- 
vice. 

Griffin,  who  has  orga- 
nized and  ran  the  tourney  for 
all  of  its  se\en  years,  added 
that  it  has  raised  about 
$120,000  smce  it  began,  av- 
eraging about  $15,000- 
20.000  per  year. 

"It's  the  spirit  o\'  giving." 
Griffin  said.

The  White  family

Mulcahy  (all  of  Quincy)  and 
Tricia  Brown  (of  Walpole) 
it>ined  the  McDermi>tt

cyclists  from  37  states  and 
six  countries  to  ride  in  the

raise  $27  million  and  surpass 
an  overall  fundraising  total 
of$2()()millioiv 

The  PMC  is  a  bike-a-thon 
from  Sturbridge  to 
Provincetown.  A  physical, 
mental,  financial  and 
emotional  challenge,  the 
PMC  serves  as  the  largest 
single  fundraiser  for  the 
Jimmy  Fund  of  the  Dana- 
Farber  Cancer  Institute. 
These  efforts  have  saved 
untold  lives  and  resulted  in 
innumerable  cancer  research 
breakthroughs. 

The  McDemiott  brothers' 
participation  in  the  PMC 
serxes  especially  as  a  way  to 
honor  the  memory  of  their 
late  mother.  Patricia,  who 
died  from  cancer  in 
December  1989  at  the  age  of 
55. 

"Our  mother  inspired  us 
in  so  many  ways  to  never 
take  life  for  granted  and  to 


look  for  ways  to  help  others 
in  need,"  said  Patrick 
McDermott.  "Hven  though 
she  lost  her  personal  battle 
with  cancer,  her  faith  served 
as  a  beacon  of  hope  for  so 
many  others  who  wait  for  a 
cure.  We  look  forward  to  the 
day  when  we  can  refer  to 
cancer  as  a  disease  of  the 
past." 

Register  McDemiott,  now 
in  his  1 6"' year  with  the  PMC, 
also  pays  a  personal  tribute 
each  year  to  his  friend  and 
political  mentor,  Paul  D. 
Harold,  former  State  senator. 
City  Council  President,  and 
Norfolk  County  Register  of 
Deeds  who  lost  his  own  battle 
with  the  disease  in  2002  after 
hav  ing  been  a  patient  at  Dana- 
Farber. 

McDermott  recalls  on  eof 
his  last  visits  with  Harold, 
"He  was  tired  but  full  o^  faith 
and  words  of  wisdom.  Then 
he  presented  me  with  a  check 
for  the  PMC  and  told  me  I 
was  doing  a  great  service  for 
the  people  of  Dana-FiU"ber 
and  the  Jimmy  Fund.  I  am 
proud  to  dedicate  a  portion 
of  my  ride  each  year  to  Paul." 

The  While  family  rides  to 
honor  their  father  and  mother 
who  both  lost  their  respective 
battles  w  ith  cancer. 

"Coming  from  a  large 
family  helps  to  provide  the 
support  that  eases  the  pain  of 
our  loss,"  said  David  White. 
"We  are  forever  grateful  for 
being  raised  by  two  dedicated 
and  loving  parents.  We  can 
only  hope  that  in  doing  the

Cycling  and  cancer 
research  have  been  connected 
in  New  England  since  1980 
when  36  cyclists  rode  220 
miles  across  Massachusetts 
to  raise  funds  for  Dana- 
Farber  Cancer  Institute 
through  its  Jimmy  Fund. 
Their  efforts  garnered  more 
than  $10,000  and  the  PMC, 
the  nation's  original 
fundraising  cycling  event, 
was  bom.  Today  the  PMC 
raises  more  money  than  any 
other  athletic  charity  event 
in  the  country. 

Chris  McDemiott.  a  14- 
year  rider,  says  he  is  mindful 
oi  other  friends  and  family 
members  who  ha\'e  fought 
or  are  fighting  the  battle 
against  cancer. 

"Cancer  does  not 
discriminate.  It  affects  people 
of  all  ages,  races,  and  socio- 
economic scales.  I

LL  DAN  MINTON 


OFF.  DAVID  LEVINE 


A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Sunday,  July  29,  at  approximately  1:20  p.m.,  of- 
ficers were  dispatched  to  the  area  of  McDonald's  Res- 
taurant in  North  Quincy  on  a  "robbery"  call.  As  officers 
were  enroute,  a  description 
was  given  out  as  a  male  tlee- 
ing  southbound  with  tan 
cargo  shorts,  no  shirt  and 
claiming  to  have  a  gun. 

Officer  Lauren  Lambert 
arrived  on  scene  and  imme- 
diately spoke  to  employees  to 
obtain  as  much  intbrmation 
as  possible.  One  employee 
said  he  observed  the  suspect 
waiting  in  the  back  of  the 

store  for  about  10  minutes,  as  if  waiting  tor  the  lines  to 

dissipate.  When  the  suspect 
got  to  the  counter,  he  told 
the  cashier  that  he  didn't 
knt>w  what  he  wanted  to  eat 
because  he  wasn't  teeling 
well  and  suttered  lri>m  a 
hangover. 

The  suspect  then  said, 
"Give  nie  everything  you 
have  in  the  register"  as  he 
lowered  his  hand  to  his 
waistband.  The  suspect  be- 
came aggravated  because  the  cashier  didn't  move  quickly 
and  reiterated  his  instructions.  The  cashier  said  he 
couldn't  open  the  cash  register  drawer  because  he  didnt 
have  a  key. 

At  that  time,  a  co-worker  came  o\er  lo  assist  and  the 
suspect  said,  "I'm  robbing  you  -  I  have  a  gun  -  gi\e  me 
everything  in  the  register."  The  second  employee  said 
he  didn't  have  a  key  and  the  drawer  could  only  be  opened 
alter  a  purchase. 

The  suspect  then  retorted,  "Then  Til  buy  a  small 
Coke  "  The  enipli>yee  then  rang  up  a  "small  Coke"  and 
handed  him  all  the  10,  5  and  1  dollar  bills  in  the  register. 
The  suspect  angrily  asked,  "Where  are  the  $20s.'"  The 
employee  said  this  was  a  new  drawer  (new  shitt)  and 
there  were  none.  At  that  time,  the  suspect  tied  out  of  the 
side  door,  running  southbound  on  Hancock  Street  with 
about  $300.  A  customer  came  torward  and  reported  he 
saw  the  suspect  take  off  his  shirt  as  he  ran  away. 

At  approximately  1:35  p.m..  Officer  David  Levine 
observed  a  party  matching  the  descnption  of  the  suspect 
at  Billings  Road  and  Hancock  Street.  The  officer  stopped 
the  suspect  just  as  he  was  about  to  get  into  a  taxi  and 
brought  him  back  to  the  scene  of  the  crime  tor  identifi- 
cation purposes.  The  two  employees  viewed  the  suspect 
separately  and  confirmed  that  he  was  the  suspect  (minus 
the  shirt)  who  robbed  them  m  McDonald's. 

After  being  placed  under  arrest.  Officer  Levine  re- 
moved S294  in  10,  5  and  1  dollar  bills,  and  equally  im- 
portant, no  20 dollar  hills.  Officer  Levine  questioned  the 
suspect  and  learned  that  he  had  just  left  a  local  Pub  prior 
to  stopping  the  taxi.  Although  the  suspect  said  he  had  a 
gun.  he  did  not  have  one  on  him,  so  Officer  Kevin 
DiMattio  went  to  the  pub  and  interviewed  the  bartender. 
She  said  the  suspect  came  into  the  pub  appearing  to 
he  out  ol  breath  and  sick.  She  said  he  told  her  that  he 
didn't  feel  good,  then  went  into  the  men's  room,  came 
out  and  ordered  a  drink.  The  bartender  said  she  couldn't 
serve  him  because  she  was  concerned  about  his  condi- 
tion. 

The  suspect  then  asked  where  he  could  buy  a  "cheap 
t-shirt."  One  of  the  customers  recommended  Brooks 
Pharmacy.  The  suspect  asked  the  bartender  to  call  a  taxi 
for  him,  but  he  was  told  that  it  was  w  ithin  walking  dis- 
tance. The  suspect  then  left  the  pub  and  soon  after  was 
stopped  by  Officer  Levine. 

Officer  DiMattio  searched  the  men's  room  and  gen- 
eral area  for  an  alleged  gun  and  although  he  didn't  find 
one,  he  did  find  a  t-shirt  matching  the  one  the  suspect 
wore  during  the  robbery.  The  suspect,  a  42-year-old 
homeless  man,  was  charged  with  "armed  robbery."  Sur- 
veillance tapes  at  McDonald's  Restaurant  were  taken  as 
evidence,  along  with  the  money  and  t-shirt

Salome's 

Stars 


AREES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  A  strong  social  whirl 
brings  a  new  round  of  good 
times  to  fun-loving  Rams  and 
Ewes.  Cupid  is  also  busy 
aiming  arrows  at  single 
Lambs  hoping  for  a  heart-to- 
heart  encounter. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  A  romantic  incident 
could  take  a  more  serious 
turn  if  the  Divine  Bovine 
considers  meeting  Cupid's 
challenge.  Meanwhile,  a  pro- 
/"essional  opportunity  is  also 
about  to  turn  up. 

GEMINI  (TVlay  21  to  June 
20)  A  bit  of  hardheaded  real- 
ism could  be  just  what  the 
Twins  need  at  this  emotional- 
ly challenged  time.  Face  the 
facts  as  they  are,  not  as  you 
want  them  to  be.  Good  luck. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Many  opportunities  open 
up.  But  you  need  to  be  aware 
of  their  actual  pros  and  cons. 
Check  them  all  out  and  make 
your  choice  from  those  that 
offer  more  of  what  you  seek. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  more  stable  situation 
begins,  allowing  you  to  feel 
more  secure  about  making 
important  decisions.  Mean- 
while, be  sure  to  meet  your 
project  deadline  so  you  can 
move  on  to  other  things. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Congratulations. 
A  new  personal  relationship 
thrives  as  you  learn  how  to 
make  room  in  your  busy  life 
for  this  wonderfully  warm 
and  exciting  emotional  expe- 
rience. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  A  new  contact 
opens  some  doors.  That's  the 
good  news.  But  there's  a  cau- 
tion involved:  Be  sure  you 
protect  your  rights  to  your 
work  before  showing  it  to 
anyone. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21 )  A  former  col- 
league might  seek  to  resume 
a  working  partnership.  Ask 
yourself  if  you  need  it.  If  yes, 
get  more  information.  If  no, 
respectfully  decline  the 
request. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Good 
times  dominate  your  aspect. 
So  why  not  have  a  party  to 
celebrate  a  loved  one's  suc- 
cess? And  do  invite  that  spe- 
cial person  you  want  to  know 
better. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  The  shy 
side  of  the  Sea  Goat  soon 
gives  way  to  your  more 
assertive  self.  This  should 
help  you  when  it  comes  time 
to  speak  up  for  yourself  and 
your  achievements. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  A  new  period  of 
stability  will  help  you  deal 
with  some  recently  reworked 
plans.  Once  you  get  your  cur- 
rent task  done,  you  can 
devote  more  time  to  personal 
matters. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Things  are  finally 
much  more  stable  these  days, 
so  you  can  restart  the  process 
of  meeting  your  well- 
planned  goals  with  fewer 
chances  of  interruption  or 
delay. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
love  being  the  brightest  light 
wherever  you  are,  and  people 
love  basking  in  your  warmth 
and  charm.

lifeguards  in  the  pool  at  the 
same  time.  Classes  arc  taught 
only  hy  Water  Safety 
Instructors  ( WS 1 1  certified  by 
the  American  Red  Cross  and 
lifeguards  are  assigned  to 
each  class  according  to  the 
class  si/c. 

Recently,  three  lifeguards 
w  ere  on  duty  w  hile  Michaela 
King.  IS.  taught  a  half  hour 
Level  1/2  class  using  games 
like  "Red  Light.  Green  Light" 
and  "Pie- Hater." 

"I  K>ve  the  little  ones," 
Michaela  said,  noting  that  the 
lifeguards  are  always  aleil 
fiM  the  youngsters"  safety. 
"Sometimes  thcvMI  slip  o'd 
the  wall." 

Michaela.  a  graduate  oi 
LonthiMtne  Academy  and  a 
liberal  ails  major  at  Quincy 
College,  teaches  40  to  50 
vounesters  at  all  levels  over 


the  course  of  a  day.  She 
herself  learned  to  swim 
through  the  Recreation 
Department's  program. 

"I  started  vv  hen  I  was  six." 
Michaela  said,  adding  she 
pursued  lifeguard  courses 
and  the  WSI  certification 
because  'it  was  one  of  my 
dreams.  Looking  up  at  the 
lifeguard,  I  wanted  to  do  the 
same  thing." 

Nineteen  year-old 
Victoria  Holland.  a 
sophomore  at  Merrimack 
College,  also  earned  her 
lifeguard  and  instructor's 
certificate  through  the 
Quincy  program. 

"1  like  to  work  with  the 
kids."  said  Victoria  who's 
been  teachmg  swimming  for 
four  years  to  all  levels  from  6 
year  old  to  15  year  old 
students.  Some  of  her  fonner 
pupils  have  moved  on  and 


are  learning  to  be 
lifeguards. "Some  of  them.  I 
see  them  swimming.  Wow. 
They're  really  good." 

Instructor  Josh  Braba/.on. 
19,  supervised  advanced 
swimmer  Rachene  Henry, 
1 2,  as  she  practiced  the  Frog 
Crawl  in  a  full  lane. 

"It's  fun  and  all  the 
teachers  are  nice,"  said 
Rachene  who  is  in  her  second 
year  at  Lincoln  Hancock. 

The  swimming  classes  are 
held  in  two  sessions  each 
summer  and  classes  are  free 
to  members  of  the  pool. 
Recreational  swims  are  held 
evenings  and  weekends 
during  the  winter. 

Full-year  membership 
charges  vary  for  families, 
seniors,  youths  and  adults. 
Receptionists  on  duty  at  the 
pool  provide  application

Siciliano  Pension  Issue 
Not  A  Speedy  Process 


(Cont'd  From  Page  I ) 

the  lev  el  described  in  the  law, 
then  we  have  no  alternative 
but  to  revoke  his  pension." 
said  McCray.  "Meantime, 
his  pension  has  been  sus- 
pended until  we  reach  a  de- 
cision. 

"The  process  does  not 
move  quickly,  Ralph 
Maher's  pension  was  re- 
voked five  years  ago  and  the 
case  is  still  going  on.  Tony 
Siciliano  is  entitled  to  the 


same  consideration." 

Maher,  the  former  chief 
plumbing  inspector  for  the 
city,  is  suing  the  Board  to 
restore  his  $34,000  pension 
that  was  revoked  after  he  was 
convicted  of  breaking  into 
the  Personnel  Office  at  City 
Hall. 

McCray  said  the  next 
meeting  of  the  Retirement 
Board  will  be  Monday,  Aug. 
20. 

Meanwhile.         Frank 


Collins,  attorney  for 
Siciliano,  has  filed  a  notice 
of  appeal,  which,  he  said, 
"triggers  the  preparation  of 
a  trial  transcript  and  the  col- 
lection of  evidence." 

"Typically,"  he  said,  "it 
takes  six  months.  Then  we 
will  file  an  appellate  brief." 

Collins  said  he  has  found 
five  substantive  bases  for 
appeal  but  he  declined  to 
name  them  until  the  briefs 
are  filed.

Three  Water  Main 
Projects  Moving  Ahead 


Three  water  main  projects  are 
making  substantial  progress,  re- 
ported Mayor  William  Phelan  and 
DPW  Commissioner  Steve 
O'Donnell. 

The  projects  have  been  under- 
taken to  impro\e  water  How  in  ar- 
eas that  have  long  had  low-flow 
problems. 

Water  main  improvements  to 
Parker  Street  and  Carlson  Street 
will  improve  water  flow  in  an  el- 
evated area  that  has  siiflered  from 
being  the  dead-end  ot  the  Ime, 
Phelan  and  O'Donneil  said.  New 
pipes  and  design  will  pro\e  water 
flow  tor  residents  and  ti>r  emer- 
gency use. 

On  Clifton  Street,  they  said,  a 
dead-end  line  will  be  unproved  to 


increase  water  tlow  for  residents  on 
the  street. 

In  West  Quincy,  residents  of 
Salem  Street  will  have  better  v\a- 
ter  flow  from  an  ongomg  project 
that  is  e.xpected  to  be  completed 
later  this  fall. 

Carruth  Street  and  Gilmore 
Street  in  WoUaston  are  also  dead- 
end streets  undergoing  water  main 
improvemeni>  this  summer. 

■■\Ve  are  impro\ing  those  areas 
that  iraditionalU  ha\e  been  low - 
flow  areas  because  of  topographs 
or  the  design  o[  the  s\stem,"  said 
O'IXmuicH.  "We  ha\e  de\ eloped 
plans  to  ensure  that  public  s.ifei> 
personnel  iecei\e  the  necessar\ 
support  .Vn  ancillary  benefit  is  that 
residents  will  likelv  en|o\   better 


service  than  that  which  was  pro- 
vided by  some  pipes  that  w  ere  close 
to  80  \ears  old." 

O'  Donne  11  also  cited  w  ater  main 
improvements  along  Summer 
Street  in  Quincv  Point,  and 
Standish  Avenue  in  Wollaston. 
Both  main  streets  will  be  pa\ed 
once  the  int'rastructure  work  i^ 
complete. 

"Our  payment  nian.igen'ciu 
plan  is  systematicalK  j.Jdressing 
one  of  the  mam  problems  in  our 
cny.  the  condnion  of  oi'.r  :\mJ.- 
wa\s,"  said  Phelan  "l  thuik  we 
ha\e  seen  dramatic  impro\eive;M.N. 
but  we  have  more  work  to  do  We 
are  now  nun  iiig  into  our  neighbor 
hood  streets  and  will  continue  to 
improve  oiii  roadwavs  " 


Mayor  Asks  Verizon 
To  Compete  For  Cable  License 


Mayor  William  Phelan  wrote 
Veri/on  this  week  offering  to  meet 
immediately  with  its  representa- 
tives to  begin  negotiating  to  bring 
cable  competition  to  Quincy. 

Veri/on  has  negotiated  close  ti> 
50  license  agreements  with  com- 
munities in  Massachusetts. 

'The  door  is  open  to  bring  cable 
competition  to  Quincy,"  said 


Phelan.  "Our  consumers  are  hun- 
gry for  competition  and  they  are 
seeing  other  communities  being 
offered  more  choices.  Quincy  resi- 
dents deserve  the  same  options  that 
t.>ther  communities  are  now  getting. 
We  are  ready  to  negotiate." 

Comcast  is  currently  the  sole 
provider  of  cable  services  in 
Quincy.  The  city  has  a  10-year, 
non-exclusive     license     with 


Comcast  to  provide  cable  telev  isioii 
to  Qumcy  residents 

"B\  all  accounts.  Comcast  has 
been  a  good  corporate  citi/en.  but 
competition  is  good  for  consum- 
ers." said  Phelan.  "We  have  been 
hearing  about  Ven/on's  entry  into 
this  marketplace  for  some  time 
now.  It's  overdue  time  for  Quincy 
to  have  competition  m  the  cable 
services  market.

Ribbon  Cutting  Aug.  21 

Germantown  Center  To  Reopen 
At  Former  St.  Boniface  Church 


Aflcr  years  of  cramped 
quarters  in  the  Snug  Harbor 
School,  the  Germantown 
Neighborhood  Center  is  on 
the  cusp  of  moving  into  an 
expanded  home  in  the  Ibrmer 
St,  Bonilace  Catholic 
Church. 

City  officials  and  others 
responsible  for  the  move  will 
attend  a  ribbon-cutting  cer- 
emony at  the  new  and  im- 
proved center  on  Palmer 
Street  Tuesday,  Aug.  21, 
starting  at  10:30  a.m. 

"The  Center  is  a  true 
neighborhood  institution 


that  would  not  have  been 
possible  without  a  collabora- 
tion between  the  city,  the 
South  Shore  Building 
Trades,  the  YMCA  and  the 
neighborhood,"  said  Mayor 
William  Phelan. 

"The  wonderful  new 
space  provided  within  the 
former  St.  Boniface  Church 
will  enable  the  Community 
Center  to  .serve  more  indi- 
viduals and  invigorate  exist- 
ing programming  that  in- 
cludes a  food  pantry,  summer 
camps.  Peer  Leader  Train- 
ing, family  literacy  and  many 


others." 

Phelan,  Planning  Director 
Dennis  Harrington,  Ward  1 
City  Councillor  Leo  Kelly, 
GNC  President  Ruth  Norton 
and  the  South  Shore  YMCA 
will  take  part  in  the  ribbon- 
cutting,  which  will  be  fol- 
lowed by  lunch  and  a  tour. 

The  conversion  of  church 
to  center  has  been  compared 
to  a  barn-raising,  with  $1.3 
million  coming  from  CDBG 
funds,  a  grant  from  State 
Street  Bank,  fundraising  by 
the  YMCA  and  donated  ser- 
vices from  Shesky  Architects 
and  local  Trade  Unions. 


NEW  CENTP^R.  Germantown  Neighborhood  Center  opens  officially  next  Tuesday  in  the  former 
St.  Boniface  Catholic  Church  at  333  Palmer  St.

"These  communities  join 
a    growing    number    of 


Massachusetts  towns  and 
cities  that  have  realized  the 
benefits  of  going  green," 
Adams  said,  adding, 

"Schools  like  these  are 
good  for  our  children  and  for 
our  wallets;  advanced  air 
systems  and  natural  lighting 
are  just  a  few  of  the  elements 
of  green  schools  that  help 
keep  kids  healthy  and  reduce 
building  operating  costs."

"1  am  proud  to  be  part  of 
this  program,"  Cahill,  a 
Quincy  resident,  said, 
describing  the  green  schools 
project  as  a  "fiscally 
responsible,  environmentally 
sound  blueprint  for  future 
school  construction." 

Craven  predicted  that 
green  schools  will  be  on  "the 
cutting  edge  of  education, 
environmenial  sustainahilit\ 


and  better  health  outcomes 
for  students  and  teachers." 

The  grants  are  available 
through  a  $15  million  phase 
of  MTC  green  schools 
initiative  which  provides 
design  and  ccmstruction 
grants. 

In  addition  to  the  .MTC 
grant.  Quincy  is  now  eligible 
for  an  additional  2"^?  ot  the 
appro\ed,  eligible  project 


costs  when  it  is  certified  as  a 
high-performance  green 
school. 

Preparation  for 

construction  of  the  new  $  1 26 
million  Quincv  High  School 
at  Faxon  Field  has  begun  on 
Woodward  Street. 

.As  a  result  i it  the  .\1TC\

By  Henry  Bosworth 


-SIX  OF  THK  seven  Papile  brothers  who  served  oversees  in 
\N  orld  War  II  got  together  at  the  end  of  the  war.  From  the  left 


are  Ralph,  .\lbert,  James,  Leo,  William  and  Angelo.  George,  the 
seventh  brother,  who  was  still  in  the  service,  is  shown  below. 


Papile  Homestead  Being  Razed 


It's  not  listed  in  the  National  Register  of  Historic 
Places. 

But  il"s  a  landmark  in  its  own  right  in  Quincy  Point. 
And.  a  warm  shining  symbol  of  the  "Greatest 
Generation."" 

It's  the  Papile  family  homestead  at  10  Harkins  St., 
home  \o  16  children  of  Raff ael  and  Lucia  Papile. 

And  Irom  v\  here  seven  brothers  went  off  to  serve 
their  country  in  World  War  II. 

The  house  is  soon  to  be  demolished.  But.  will  be 
rebuilt  \Mth  a  new  look. 

"It"  s  going  to  be  heartbreaking  to  see  it  come  down," 
says  Jim  Papile.  former  city  assessor  and  one  of  the 
three  survi\ ing  children,  who  was  bom  there. 

It  was  determined,  sadly,  that  because  of  the  age  of 
the  house-believed  built  in  the  late  1 800s-and  the  wear 
and  tear  it  has  seen  that  it  would  cost  more  to  repair  and 
renoN  ate  it  than  to  raze  and  rebuild  it. 

The  new  house  will  be  a  tw  o-family  with  Jim  and  his 
wife.  Marge,  living  on  the  first  floor.  And  their  daughter, 
Julie  McComiick,  her  husband,  Stephen  and  three 
children  on  the  second. 

"If  this  old  house  could  only  talk  it  would  tell  you  of 
the  many  happenings-happy,  sad,  and  proud-especially 
dunng  the  depression  years  and  the  war  years,"  says 
Papile. 

Beginning  with  his  parents  buying  the  house  in  the 
early  1 920' s.  And  having  to  double  its  size  as  the  family 
kept  growing. 

There  were  the  seven  individual  farewell  parties  for 
the  seven  brothers,  as  they  left,  one  after  the  other,  to 
serve  in  various  branches  of  the  armed  forces  in  World 
War  II: 

Bill  and  Angelo  (Mike).  Army;  Al.  Ralph  (Chick) 
and  George.  Navy:  Leo.  Marines  and 
Jim.  Coast  Guard.  All  serving  oversees. 
Imagine  being  the  parents  of  seven 
sons  away  at  war  and  worrying  about 
their  safety. 

There  were  a  lot  of  prayers  said  in 
that  house-which  were  all  answered 
as  all  seven  came  home  safely. 
The  other  children: 

Alfonzo  ("Pop"),  Mary,  Helen,  Sadie,  Gloria,  Amelia, 
John,  Edward,  Jim's  twin,  Jenny,  died  at  an  early  age. 
Edward  was  killed  in  a  fall  from  a  staging  at  the  Fore 
River  shipyard. 

Bill  became  a  city  councillor,  Mary,  assistant  city 
treasurer,  Leo  an  MDC  police  detective;  John,  a  member 
of  the  Quincy  Board  of  Voter  Registrars  and 
superintendent  of  the  Milton  post  office,  "Pop"  a  member 
of  the  Quincy  Housing  Authority  Board.  Sadie,  active 
in  the  community  and  founder  of  the  Ladies  Torre  dei 
Passeri  Mutual  Benefit  Society. 


THE  PAPILE  FAMILY  homestead,  a  landmark  at  10  Harkins 
St.,  Quincy  Point  will  soon  be  razed. 


GEORGE 


LUCIA  AND  RAFFAEL  PapUe  at  their  SO'"  wedding  anniversary 
celebration  in  March  1956. 


Only  Jim,  Chick  and  Gloria  Kelly,  the  baby  of  the 
family  survive. 

What  was  it  like  growing  up  in  the  Great  Depression 
in  such  as  large  family? 

"My  mother  was  cooking  and  baking  all  the  time," 
Jim  recalls.  "My  father  had  a  huge  vegetable  garden 
from  which  we  ate  fresh  vegetables  and  my  mother 
would  also  preserve  tomatoes,  string  beans  and  other 
vegetables  for  the  winter.  We  didn't  go  hungry." 

But  that  garden  was  greatly  reduced  in  size  when  the 
city  took  a  large  chunk  of  the  land  on  which  to  build  a 
gymnasium  for  the  then  Point  Junior  High  School. 

Jim  remembers  his  father's  intense  pride. 

"He  told  my  mother  to  stay  away  from  the  welfare 
office.  He  said  he  would  take  care  of  his  family.  They 
weren't  going  on  welfare.  And  that  was  that." 

He  found  road  jobs  and  worked  on  WPA  projects  to 
support  his  family. 

What  was  it  like  at  dinner  with  all  those  brothers  and 
sisters?

THIS  1907  POSTCARD  served  as  a  schedule  for  the 
steamboats  that  ferried  passengers  between  Northern 
Avenue  in  Boston  and  Houghs  Neck.  In  1901  this  pier 
was  built  to  a  channel  dug  in  the  mudflats  to  allow  the 
passengers  to  get  to  shore.  Arriving  next  to  the  Quincy 
Yacht  Club,  the  boats  ran  several  times  a  day  in  the 
summer.  A  number  of  companies  ran  the  boats  over  the 
years  and  some  went  on  from  Houghs  Neck  to 
^antasket,  which  was  also  a  popular  summer  spot  for 


the  people  confined  to  the  city.  There  were  very  few 
automobiles  at  that  time  and  the  only  other  way  to  the 
Neck  was  by  electric  trolley  from  the  Quinc>  Station  of 
the  Old  Colony  Railroad.  This  pier  still  exists  as  a  pub- 
lic way  to  the  water,  but  the  steamboats  stopped  run- 
ning many  years  ago.  To  contact  Tom  Calvin,  e-mail

Disagrees  With  Koch  On  License  Board  Plan 


As  a  relatively  newcomer 
t(i  Quincy,  I've  kept  up  on 
policies  and  political  players 
here  via  the  usually  balanced 
reporting  of  Tlw  Sun  tV-r  the 
last  l'i\e  years...  1  don't 
know  man>  of  the  players  at 
city  hall  except  from  what  I 
read  here,  and  for  that  I  give 
you  guys  a  big  ihank>  Irr 
keeping  me  informed. 

In  the  last  issue  you  head- 
lined a  story  about  ma>ora! 
candidate  Tiim  Koch's  pro- 
posal to  revamp  the  City  Li- 
cense Board  and  1  have  to 
admit  it  lloored  me.  From 
w  hat  1  understand  of  the  ar- 
ticle... and  1  am  concerned 
that  It  was  a  publicity  relea>e 
as  opposed  to  an  actual  Sun 
article  since  it  had  no  by-line 
and  lacked  the  Sun's  usual 
ohjective  repi>rting  ..  Mr 
Koch  wants  to  replace  the 
heads  of  the  Police  and  Fire 


I  thi>ughi  \\\  reply  to  ymir 
two  recent  Sunbeams  regard- 
ing .'\ii.niis/Bush  (.lul\  I  2) 
and  the  Remick's  (.Iul\  2(i) 

You  sure  hit  the  nail  on 
the  head  with  both  Sun 


Departments,  the  Chief 
Building  Inspector  and  the 
Health  Commissioner  with 
four  private  citi/ens.  This 
makes  no  sense  to  me. 

The  article  made  no  men- 
tion of  who  would  appoint 
these  pri\ate  ciii.^ens  i an- 
other reason  I  suspect  it 
vwisn't  written  b\  an\  •'•f  the 
capable  Sun  staffers  who 
siireK  V,  (.mid  have  asked  th.u 
obvious  question)  although 
the  implication  is  that  the\ 
would  be  appointed  by  the 
Ma\oi.  So  instead  of  having 
four  professional  men  who 
know  the  needs  and  areas  o\ 
the  city  best  and  w  ho  b\  \  u - 
tue  o\  their  position  are  obli-

By  ANNELI  JOHNSON 

If  we  want  to  buy  locally 
and  .support  our  farmers, 
shopping  at  our  local  farmers' 
market  can  be  an  important 
part  of  our  week's  shopping 
trip. 

Fanners  sell  directly  to 
us,  as  opposed  to  selling 
wholesale  to  a  supermarket, 
so  we  are  an  important  part 
of  the  farmers'  lives.  We  can 
make  the  difference  between 
a  good  month  and  just  getting 
by. 

Here  are  a  few  thoughts  to 
ponder. 

First:  Farmers  provide 
consistency,  and  they  benefit 
from  our  consistency.  This 
means  that  they  are  there  at 
the  market  every  Friday  rain 
or  shine.  For  example,  they 
had  picked  10  bushels  of 
lettuce  for  Friday's  market 
and  it  rains  and  we  decided 
not  to  go. 

The  farmers  might  go 
hack  to  the  farm  with  five 


bushels  of  lettuce  which 
translates  into  expensive 
animal  food. 

So,  let  us  put  on  our 
raincoat  and  go  to  the  market 
regardless  and  buy  our 
week's  fresh  food  even  if  it  is 
raining. 

Second:  Plan  in  advance 
what  you  need  and  what  is 
available  at  the  farmers' 
market.  Many  people  lament 
that  they  had  just  bought  their 
vegetables  and  their  bread  at 
the  supermarket  so  they  do 
not  need  anything  now. 

To  remedy  this  dilemma, 
we  suggest  that  you  visit  first 
the  farmers'  market  and  then, 
if  there  are  items  that  the 
farmers  did  not  have  at  the 
time,  go  to  the  supermarket. 

Third,  talk  with  your 
farmers  and  tell  them  what  is 
important  to  you.  Do  you 
want  him  to  grow  some 
special  vegetables  that  you 
are  using  in  your  cooking? 
The  farmers  will  grow  it  just 


for  you. 

Finally,  don't  forget  to 
tell  the  farmers  how 
wonderful  the  food  they  grow 
is  and  how  much  you  and 
your  family  enjoy  it.  There  is 
a  lot  of  hard  work  involved  in 
farming  and  it  is  great  for 
them  to  hear  positive 
feedback  and  appreciation  of 
their  work  from  us,  the 
consumer. 

Going  to  the  Farmers' 
Market  is  a  wonderful  social 
event  where  you  can  meet 
your  neighbor  and  exchange 
ideas  and  recipes.  You  can 
also  try  new  varieties  of 
vegetables  not  available  in 
supermarkets  and,  also,  you 
can  taste  the  difference  in 
fresh  produce. 

Quincy  Fanners'  Market 
operates  each  Friday  from 
1 1:30  a.m.  to  5  p.m.  at  the 
Hancock  Parking  Lot 
opposite  Quincy  District 
Court.

Koch  Takes  Issue 
With  Mayor's  Tax  Survey 


Tom  Koch,  who  is  seek- 
ing to  unseat  Mayor  William 
Phelan  in  the  November 
municipal  election,  has  chal- 
lenged the  integrity  of  a 
study  commending  the 
mayor  for  holding  down  the 
Quincy  tax  rate. 

The  study  by  Robert  C. 
Haley,  former  research  direc- 
tor of  the  Quincy  Taxpayers 
Association,  showed  that 
since  2004  the  city's  average 
single-family  tax  bill  in- 
creased the  least  of  50  com- 
munities in  the  study. 

Koch  noted  that  Haley 
had  recently  been  appinnted 
by  Phelan  to  the  Quincy  Re- 
tirement Board  and.  as  an 
officer  in  the  QTA  prior  to 
the  appointment,  he  had  been 
critical  of  the  mayor's  han- 
dling of  the  tax  situation. 

"In  December  of  2003, 
Haley  .  .  .  called  an  18  per 
cent  tax  hike  used  to  fund  the 
mayor's  budget  'ridiculous.' 
according  to  a  local  newspa- 
per account,"  said  Koch. 

"The  newspaper  account 
stated: 

"'Robert  Haley,  vice 
president  of  the  Quincy  Tax- 
payers Association,  blasted 
the  increase  as  "ridiculous  " 
and  sugi^ested  that  city  offi- 
cials have  mani>led  the  num- 
bers in  the  last  two  vears  in 
a  way  that  hurts  taxpayers. 

"  7'//;  upset  with  the  pro- 
cess, '  Haley  told  the  newspa- 
per in  2003.  'There  is  not  a 
credible  e.xpliuuition.'" 

Koch  said  last  March  .  a 
few  months  before  he  v\as 
named  to  the  Retirement 
Board.  Haley  cast  more 


TOM  KOCH 

doubt     on     the     Phelan 
administration's  tax  policies. 

Koch  quoted  a  letter  he 
received  from  Haley  com- 
menting on  a  $126  million 
proposal  to  build  a  new 
Quincy  High  School:  "/'/?/ 
not  sure  the  mayor  can  afford 
to  fund  these  projects  out  of 
the  general  budget. " 

"We  have  been  talking  a 
lot  about  how  the  high  school 
project  will  affect  the  pock- 
etbooks  of  our  taxpayers," 
said  Koch,  "and  the  study 
conducted  by  the  same  per- 
son who  offered  that  warn- 
ing makes  no  mention  o'i  it. 

"We  need  to  be  straight 
with  of  residents  about  taxes. 


When  we  take  that  first  stop. 
we  can  start  looking  at  ways 
to  ease  that  burden." 

He  said  residents  are  still 
feeling  the  effects  o^  tax 
surges  over  the  last  sexeial 
years,  adding  that  "it  is  time 
to  stop  getting  defensive 
about  it  with  misleading 
studies  like  this  and  staii  try- 
ing to  do  something  about  it. 

"We  have  a  lot  of  difficult 
challenges  facing  this  city 
and  we  need  leadership  that 
can  be  upfront  about  these 
kinds  of  challenges  and  be 
willing  to  take  action." 

Koch  pledged  a  policy  of 
"tax  honesty"  w  ith  residents. 

"We  need  a  leader  that  lis- 
tens and  responds  to  con- 
cerns about  rising  ta.xes,  not 
orders  a  political  appointee 
to  write  a  misleading  study." 
he  said. 

"Poll-driven  spin  about 
taxes  doesn't  sit  with  me  and 
it  shouldn't  w  ith  our  taxpay- 
ers who  only  have  tt^  open 
their  bills  to  see  the  reality. 

"Doing  something  about 
taxes  is  more  challenging 
than  spinning  numbers  but 
it's  a  challenge  we  must  con- 
front."

Atria  Marina  Place,  an 
Atria  Senior  Living  Group 
community  in  North  Quincy, 
received  a  Platinum  Com- 
munity award  from  the  Na- 
tional Assisted  Living 
Nurses  Association 

(NALNA)  for  100  percent 
quality  compliance  based  on 
a  Massachusetts  state  survey. 

The  award  was  handed 
out  at  NALNA' s  2007  Na-

ceived recognition. 

"We  are  honored  to  be

ecutive Director  Maria 
Lastoria.  "We  invest  in  our 
people,  our  operations  and 
our  communities  because  we 
know  the  positive  difference 
that  makes  in  the  everyday 
lives  of  our  residents." 

In  the  past  three  years. 
Atria  has  increased  expendi- 
tures for  its  Quality  Assur- 
ance program  by  500  percent 
in  order  to  assure  quality  care 
is  provided  at  their  commu- 
nities. Significant  standards 
at  Atria  communities  in- 
clude: 

Requiring  every  Atria 
community  to  have  licensed

roles,  even  though  some 
states  don't  require  licensed 
nurses  in  communities  at  all. 

Appointing  an  indepen-

who  reports  directly  to  the 
Board  of  Directors. 

Designing  a  comprehen- 
sive quality  assurance  tool, 
with  nearly  350  questions 
that  cover  740  requirements 
and  that  is  often  more  thor- 
ough than  state  surveys.  The 
tool  covers  everything  from 
resident  apartments  and  ser- 
vices to  medication  admin- 
istration and  administrative 
compliance.

Koch  Launches  'Getting  Results' 
Feature  On  Web  Site 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  has  launched  a  new 
feature  on  his  Web  site  en- 
titled "Getting  Results"  to 
highlight  what  he  called  the 
positive  effects  of  a  cam- 
paign that  listens  to  the  con- 
cerns of  residents  and  treats 
people  respectfully. 

"People  are  making  their 
voices  heard,  and  we  are 
without  question  starting  to 
see  the  ripple  effects,"  Koch 
said.  "It  speaks  to  the  kind 
of  leadership  we  plan  to 
bring  to  city  hall-listening, 
responding,  and  always 
treating  people  with  dignity 
and  respect." 

Koch's  Web  site, 
www.kochforquincy.com. 
points  to  the  city's  recent  hir- 
ing of  a  traffic  engineer  after 
a  vacancy  of  nearly  two 
years.  Just  a  few  weeks  after 
announcing  his  candidacy  in 


January.  Koch  called  on  the 
current  administration  to  do 
everything  in  its  power  to  fill 
the  job.  and  he  has  since 
made  a  series  of  proposals  to 
address  traffic  problems 
around  the  city. 

"We  have  a  traffic  engi- 
neer today  because  our  com- 
munity forced  the  issue,  but 
this  is  only  the  first  step  to- 
ward cleaning  up  the  traffic 
mess  in  our  city,"  KiKh  said. 
"We  recently  proposed  a 
fairly  simple  plan  to  improve 
traffic,  and  we  will  keep  talk- 
ing about  it  until  it  gets 
done." 

Koch,  who  is  holding 
regular  meetings  with  resi- 
dents on  a  wide  range  of  is- 
sues, said  he  repeatedly  hears 
that  "people  want  leadership 
that  responds  to  their  con- 
cerns." 

"That's  what  we're  out 


there  doing  by  pushing  is- 
sues like  these:  Repairing 
that  vital  connection  between 
city  hall  and  our  residents," 
Koch  said.  "Our  taxpayers 
cope  with  annual  property 
tax  increases:  They  deserve 
to  know  that  city  hall  is  lis- 
tening." 

Koch  pointed  to  a  meet- 
ing he  had  with  residents  of 
Tobin  Towers  on  Clay  Street 
earlier  this  year  in  which 
residents  discussed  an  emer- 
gencies related  to  hot  water 
in  the  building. 

"By  working  together 
with  the  residents,  we  are 
able  to  get  some  movement 
on  the  issue  from  city  hall," 
Koch  said.  "These  are  the 
kinds  of  things  that  should 
not  require  an  election  year 
to  address,  and  they  won't  in 
our  administration." 


D'Amico  Faces  More  Jail  time 


More  than  two  years  af- 
ter his  release  from  federal 
prison  where  he  served  four 
months  for  extortion,  former 
Ward  4  City  Councillor 
Michael  D'Amico  is  faced 
with  more  time  behind  bars. 

The  U.  S.  Court  of  Ap- 
peals last  week  vacated  the 
sentence  already  served,  rul- 
ing that  District  Court  Judge 
Rya  Zobel  erred  in  ignoring 
the  31  to  44-month  sentence 


recommended  by  the  guide- 
lines. 

The  District  Court  was 
directed  to  resentence 
D'Amico,  who  is  now  32  and 
operating  a  restaurant  in 
Kennebunkport,  Maine. 

D'Amico  was  the  young- 
est City  Councillor  ever 
when  he  was  elected  at  the 
age  of  20  in  1995  and  re- 
elected in  lW7and  19W. 

He  was  indicted  in  2002 

POLITICAL  ADVERTISEMENT 


and  convicted  in  2004  of  tak- 
ing $2,500  in  cash  from  Paul 
Govostes,  who  sought  his 
influence  in  approval  of  a 
$19  million  highway  project 
in  front  of  his  doughnut  shop 
in  West  Quincy. 

He  served  his  sentence  in 
federal  prison  in  Lewisburg. 
Pa.,  but  kept  his  appeal  ac- 
tive in  hopes  of  preserving  a 
career  in  the  law.  Prosecutors 
tiled  a  cross  appeal  to  in- 
crease his  sentence.

"My  lather  told  us  to  go  to  school  and  learn  to  do  our 
very  best  in  w  hatever  we  decided  to  do  in  life  and  to  be 
good  citizens." 

His  mother  stiessed  the  imiiortance  olfeligion  and 
lived  It.  She  walketl  a  mile  or  so  to  St.  John's  church  in 
Quincy  Center  to  attend  daily  Mass  and  receive 
Communion  until  her  later  years. 

She  even  had  a  small,  btit  ornate  altar  built  for  the 
home. 

And  Chick  remembers  his  mother  telling  the  children: 
""\'ou  learn  linglish.  How  am  I  going  to  learn  it.  if  \ou 
don't" 

Rallael  ilied  in  l%2  at  aL-e  76.  Lucia  in  I97S  at  a'je 


Their  56  years  together  started  on  a  special  romantic 
note  of  their  own. 

They  had  been  neighbors  in  Torre  dei  Passeri,  Italy. 
Raffael  came  to  the  U.S.  at  age  15.  While  living  in 
Quincy  in  1905  he  sent  Lucia  a  picture  of  himself. 

She  sent  one  of  herself  back  to  him.  He  looked  at  it 
and  decided  she  was  the  one  for  him.  He  proposed  by 
mail  and  bought  her  ship  passage.  They  were  married  in 
1906.  He  was  21  and  she  17. 

The  city  paid  special  tribute  to  the  family  in  2000, 
dedicating  a  bronze  memorial  plaque  on  a  granite 
boulder  in  a  mini-like  park  outside  the  now  Point 
Webster  .Middle  School  just  a  few  feet  from  the  Papile 
homestead. 

"It  kind  of  made  up  for  the  city  taking  the  land  for  the 
school  gym,"  muses  Jim. 

Jim  Sheets,  mayor  at  the  time,  probably  best  summed 
up  the  Papile  family's  dedicatit)n  to  their  city  and 
country  when  he  said  at  the  dedication: 

"The  Papile  family  came  to  give-not  to  take.  We  are 
paying  tribute  to  a  family  that  is  typical  of  the  families 
that  made  America  what  it  is  today,  and  what  this  city 
is." 

Ihe  old  ht)mestead  will  soon  be  gone. 

But  not  all  those  years  of  memories.

It  has  become  an  auto- 
mated age  while  most  of  us 
have  little  exposure  to  open 
flame  in  our  daily  lives.  Con- 
sequently, It  can  be  easy  to 
forget  the  safeguards  and 
jirohibitions  associated  with 
Its  use.  T(u)  often  an  active, 
lit  candle  can  be  forgotten 
while  unattended  burning 
candles  account  for  approxi- 
mately MV/r  of  all  candle 
fires.  That's  probably  what 
occurred  in  this  instance. 

in  a  power  outage,  it  is 
safer  to  use  Hashlights  and 
other  light  sources  generated 
by  batteries.  While  candles 
can  be  decorative  and  func- 
tional when  used  properly,  if 
you  must  introduce  open

You  may  be  aware  that 
bunions  are  bony  bumps  that 
are  often  found  on  the  inside 
of  the  foot  near  the  big  toe 
joint.  Few  people  know,  how- 
ever, thatthere  is  another  kind 
of  bunion  called  a  "bunionette" 
or  a  "Tailor's  Bunion."  These 
bunions  occur  on  the  outside 
of  the  foot  near  the  little  toe 
and  are  caused  by  the  little 
toe  pushing  inward.  Wearing 
tight,  narrow  dress  shoes  that 
do  not  allow  the  foot  appropri- 
ate space  can  cause  bunions 
and  bunionettes.  To  prevent 
them,  wear  shoes  that  fit  prop- 
erly and  have  a  wide  toe  lx>x. 
When  a  bunionette  is  fajrty 
new,  you  may  obtain  some 
relief  by  soaking  your  foot  in 
warm  water. 

It  is  important  that  bunions 
arid  bunionettes  be  recog- 
nized early  and  evaluated  by 
a  podiatrist.  We  can  then  offer 


suggestions  on  controlling 
their  cause  so  that  symp- 
toms do  not  arise  or  become 
more  severe.  Recommenda- 
tions may  include  exercise, 
a  change  in  footwear,  orthot- 
ics, medication,  and  surgery. 
Let  us  do  what  we  do  best  - 
diagnose  and  treat  your  par- 
ticular foot  problems  with 
compassion,  knowledge, 
and  up-to-date  techniques 
and  medical  equipment.

Phelan:  Quincy  Tax 

Advantage  Three  Times 

The  State  Average 


License  Board  Briefs 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
has  cited  a  recent  article  in 
The  Beacon,  the  Massachu- 
setts Municipal 
Association's  newsletter  to 
support  his  defense  of  his  tax 
policies. 

The  article  highlighted 
the  fact  that  three  out  of  four 
communities  in  the  Bay  State 
are  taxing  their  residents  to 
within  98  per  cent  or  higher 
of  the  community's  levy  ca- 
pacity. 

"As  of  2007,"  said 
Phelan,  "Quincy's  excess 
levy  capacity  was  close  to  6 
per  cent,  more  than  three 
times  the  statewide  average. 

"Furthermore,  the  study 
showed  that  more  than  two- 
thirds  of  the  communities  in 
Massachusetts  were  at  least 
at  99  per  cent  of  their  levy 
limits." 

"Excess  levy  capacity"  is 
defined  as  the  difference  be- 
tween the  property  tax  levy 
limit  under  Proposition  2  1/ 
2  as  calculated  by  the  state 
and  the  amount  collected 
from  the  tax  payers  and  used 
by  the  community. 

"Excess  capacity"  devel- 
ops when  the  city  uses  less 
than  100  per  cent  of  the 


WILLIAM  PHELAN 

amount  available  under  the 
levy  limit. 

"We  have  worked  hard 
and  we  continue  to  work 
hard  to  protect  the  interests 
of  our  taxpayers,"  said 
Phelan. 

"We  have  identified  out- 
side revenue  sources,  imple- 
mented new  budgeting  tech- 
niques and  held  the  line  on 
important  budgetary  matters 
such  as  the  costs  of  employee 
benefits. 

"Some  decisions  may  not 
be  popular  but  they  are  get- 
ting results  and  that  is  what 
I  was  elected  by  the  taxpay- 
ers to  do." 

The  article  in  The  Beacon 
cited  a  number  of  reasons  for 
a  community's  excess  levy 


capacity,  including  "mainly 
sensitivity  to  the  property  tax 
burden  on  individuals  and 
businesses,  avoiding  excess 
spending  and  the  presence  of 
a  single  high-value  prop- 
erty." 

it  was  noted  that  the  total 
available  excess  levy  capac- 
ity in  Massachusetts  is  con- 
centrated within  a  few  com- 
munities. 

"Cities  and  towns 
throughout  Massachusetts 
are  over-reliant  on  residen- 
tial property  taxes  as  a  rev- 
enue source,"  said  Phelan. 

"We  are  doing  our  best  to 
avoid  that  by  working  to 
build  our  commercial  tax 
base  in  downtown  Quincy, 
Crown  Colony  and  at  the 
Fore  River  Shipyard. 

"We  are  working  with 
state  and  federal  officials  to 
augment  outside  funding 
sources. 

"We  are  working  with  our 
employees  to  reduce  our  un- 
sustamable  employee  benefit 
costs. 

"Our  work  on  behalf  of 
our  taxpayers  doesn't  end 
with  another  positive  report. 

"Let's  keep  trying  to  do 
more."

Strict  Control  Sought 
Over  Wind  Farms 


< Cont'd  From  Pa^e  I) 

niit  to  construct  a  400-foot 
wind  tower  in  the  old  Fore 
River  Shipyard. 

"Four  hundred  feet  is 
about  the  same  height  as  the 
Goliath  crane."  said 
Rayniondi.  "We  would  be 
making  that  a  permanent  part 
of  the  Quincy  Point  skyline. 

"1  contacted  (Building 
Inspector)  Jay  Duca  and  we 
found  that  the  zoning  ordi- 
nances were  silent  on  wind 
power.  1  was  concerned  that 
he  might  be  able  to  build  it 
as  a  matter  of  right. 

""We  needed  something 
to  put  together  to  slow  down 
the  process  while  we  defined 
the  public  process." 

Raymondi  quickly 
dashed  off  the  ordinance 


amendment  and  advertised 
the  hearing,  which,  he  said, 
halted  possible  issuance  of 
the  building  permit. 

The  Ward  2  councillor 
said  his  next  step  will  be  to 
invite  Jay  Cashman  to  a  pub- 
lic meeting  at  the  Fore  River 
Clubhouse  to  explain  his 
wind  farm  plan. 

"We  want  to  inform  the 
public  about  wind  power  so 
that  the  people  can  make  a 
determination,"  he  said, 
"and,  in  particular,  we  want 
to  discuss  the  siting  at  the 
shipyard." 

Raymondi  said  another 
concern  is  the  effect  the  wind 
towers  will  have  on  Dan 
Quirk's  plan  for  mixed  resi- 
dential and  industrial  use  of 
most  of  the  shipyard  prop- 


erty. 

"We  don't  want  to  jeop- 
ardize that,"  he  said. 

Raymondi  said  Cashman 
owns  several  acres  o\  ilic 
shipyard  property  that  he 
purchased  Irom  the  Massa- 
chusetts Water  Resources 
Authority  (MWRA). 

The  Planning  Board  also 
will  have  to  hold  a  pubhc 
hearing  on  the  amendment, 
probably  in  October. 

Just  because  he'd  like  to 
see  strict  controls  on  siting 
doesn't  mean  Raymondi  has 
anything  against  wind  en- 
ergy facilities. 

"This  is  the  wave  of  the 
future,"  he  said.  "We  should 
be  proactive  on  it.  The  resi- 
dents of  Quincy  should  be 
educated  about  it." 


Keenan  Urges  Phelan 
To  Hasten  Sea  St.  Purchase 


City  Councillor  At  Large 
John  Keenan  has  urged  the 
mayor  to  .seize  the  opportu- 
nity to  purchase  the  property 
at  271  Sea  St.,  known  as  the 
Cobblestone  Development, 
and  preserve  it  as  open  space. 

"There  is  funding  avail- 
able though  the  Community 
Preservation  Act  and  the 
Community  Preservation 
Committee  has  recom- 
mended the  site  for  purchase 
by  the  city,"  he  wrote  in  a 
letter  to  Mayor  William 
Phelan. 

"It's  now  time  to  take  the 


next  step  towards  acquiring 
the  property  before  the  op- 
portunity slips  away." 

The  Cobblestone  site 
abuts  Broadmeadows  Marsh 
and  Keenan  suggested  it 
would  complement  the  Army 
Corps  of  Engineers  marsh 
reclamation  project  as  well 
as  alleviate  traffic  problems 
that  would  come  with  devel- 
opment. 

Negotiations  are  under- 
way for  the  city  to  purchase 
the  property,  Keenan  noted, 
but  the  owner  of  the  site 
.soon  may  have  to  commence 
work  given  financial  consid- 


erations. 

'The  possibility  of  the 
city  purchasing  the  property 
has  existed  for  some  time," 
Keenan  said,  "and  back  in 
February  2007  the  owner 
advised  the  city  that  time  was 
of  the  essence  due  to  finan- 
cial considerations.  Six 
months  have  passed. 

"As  1  did  in  my  letter  of 
Feb.  22.  2007, 1  again  urge 
you  to  seize  upon  this  oppor- 
tunity  to  preserve  open 
space,  and  to  prevent  the 
worsening  of  an  already  dan- 
gerous traffic  situation."

Bohan  Liu  of  Quincy,  a 
junior  at  Bost(m  College 
High  School  is  one  of  four 
BC  High  students  who  re- 
ceived a  scholarship  to  the 
prestigious  National  Youth 
Leadership  Forum  in  Medi-

The  National  Youth  Lead- 
ership Forum  on  Medicine 
introduces  outstanding  high 
school  students  to  the  world 
of  medicine.  This  ten-day 
summer  program  pairs  honor 
students  with  professionals 
from  some  of  the  nation's  top 
medical  centers  and  faculty 
from  renowned  institutions 
of  learning. 

The  scholarship,  valued  at 
$3,000.  is  sponsored  by 
Mass  General  Hospital.  Paul 
Bartush,  assistant  director  of 


volunteer,  interpreter  &  ain- 
bassadt>r  services  at  Mass 
General  Hospital,  recently 
visited  campus  to  present  the 
four  winners  with  stetho- 
scopes -  tools  that  they  will 
soon  use  as  they  embark  on 
their  careers  in  the  medical 
field. 

Boston  Ct)llege  High 
School  is  a  Jesuit,  Catholic, 
college-preparatory  school 
for  young  men  founded  in 
1863.  The  school  enrolls 
approximately  1 3(X)  students 
from  some  lOOconmiunities 
in  eastern  Massachusetts. 

With  close  cooperation 
from  many  prestigious  and 
technologically  advanced 
hospitals,  research  facilities 
and  medical  schools,  the 


National  Youth  Leadership 
Forum  challenges  students  to 
learn  about  a  broad  range  of 
topics,  including  educational 
requirements,  career  optu>ns, 
clinical  practice,  and  com- 
plex ethical  and  legal  issues 
lacing  the  medical  profes- 
sion today.  Students  discuss 
global  cpidenucs,  cures  for 
lile-threatening  diseases,  lite 
as  a  resident,  medical  spe- 
cialties and  primary  care 
with  current  physicians  .md 
patients. 

l:ach  program  culminates 
in  a  simulation  Ihal  chal- 
lenges students  to  consider  a 
specific  issue  in  public  health 
and  to  present  pertinent  rec-

A  Homegrown 

Solution  to  Hard 

Water  Spots 

2,  What  can  I  use  to 
•  remove  hard  water 
«  from  a  double-pane 
window?  The  water  spot.s 
came  from  the  garden 
sprinkler.  —  Virginia  B., 
via  e-mail 

A  ."Hard"  water  is  gen- 
•  erdlly  called  such 
because  of  the  amount  of 
mineral  deposits,  especially 
calcium,  it  contains.  It's 
common  throughout  the 
United  States,  as  groundwa- 
ter often  runs  through  sec- 
tions of  the  earth  containing 
limestone,  chalk  or  similar 
minerals.  Magnesium,  iron 
and  other  minerals  are  also 
typically  present  in  hard 
water. 

Well  water  —  from  which 
some  sprinkler  systems 
draw  their  water  —  can  con- 
tain much  higher  levels  of 
minerals  than  municipal 
water,  which  has  reduced 
mineral  content  due  to  the 
treatment  process.  Because 
the  most  common  issue  with 
hard  water  is  the  buildup  of 
mineral  scale  on  surfaces 
over  time,  homeowners 
using  well-water-fed  sprin- 
kler systems  should  check 
the  sprinkler  heads  through- 
out the  watering  season  to 
keep  scale  from  clogging  the 
nozzles. 

Which  leads  us,  sort  of. 


back  to  hard  water  spots  on 

windows.  These  also  can 
(Kcur  with  nagging  frequen- 
cy and  arc  difficult  to  clean 
off;  mineral  salts  adhere  to 
the  glass  quite  easily.  And 
depending  on  the  mineral, 
store-bought  window  clean- 
ers may  not  have  any  effect 
and  can  be  counterproduc- 
tive. 

A  homegrown  solution 
that  may  work  is  to  apply  a 
thin  coat  of  oil  (lemon  oil  or 
even  vegetable  or  ohve  oil) 
to  the  gla.ss  and  let  it  sit  for 
about  an  hour.  The  oil  can 
soften  the  mineral  scale  and 
help  lift  it  away  from  the 
glass.  Then,  make  a  thick 
paste  of  water  and  corn- 
starch (or  baking  soda)  and 
dab  on  with  a  soft  cloth  or 
toothbrush,  cleaning  one 
section  at  a  time  in  a  circular 
motion. 

Clean  the  entire  window- 
pane  with  warm  water  and 
mild  dish  soap  and  check  for 
remaining  water  spots;  spot- 
clcan  with  the  paste  and 
toothbrush  and  rinse.  Once 
all  the  spots  are  gone,  use  an 
ammonia-based  window 
cleaner  to  finish.

look  back  at  your  property 
and  try  to  see  it  as  a 
prospective  buyer  would.  A 
few  things  to  look  torinclude: 

•  Mold  and  mildew  stains, 
which  can  make  the  exterior 
ol  your  home  appear  dirty 
and  unatlraclive. 

•  A  |)roperly  paved 
walkway.  I  o  make  a  gracetui 
entrance,  it  should  be  al  least 
three  teet  wise  and  gently 
curved. 

•  I'iuui'jIi  lii:htiiiL:  to  keep

•  Lo\ely  landscaping.

•  Outiloor  lurmture  that's

•  A  good  exterior  paint 
job. 

To  help  homeowners 
preserve  the  overall 
ambience  and  functionality 
ot  their  outdoor  spaces,  Behr 
devek>ped  a  new  kind  of 
exterior  coating  designed  to 
save  both  time  and  money.  It 
doubles  as  paint  and  primer 
in  one,  to  form  a  liquid 
safeguard  that  can  preserve 
the  exterior  finish  for  years 
to  come. 

Behr  Premium  Plus  Ultra 
Exterior  Paint  uses 
NanoGuard  paint 

technology,  an  interlocking 
molecular  structure  that 
offers  a  denser,  more  durable 
paint  film.  When  dry,  the 
paint  forms  an  extra- 
protective  shell  that  resists 
damage  froin  sunlight, 
moisture,  stains  and  dirt.  It 
offers  an  enhanced  mildew- 
resistant  finish  and  is  simple 
to  clean  up  with  just  soap  and 
water.  This  innovative 
formula  also  helps  to  block 
out  damaging  DV  rays  by 
providing  a  tighter,  more 
evenly  dispersed  paint 
coating.

Four  Bright  Ideas 
For  The  Kitchen 


(NAPS)  -  In  homes  that 
welcome  friends,  family  and 
good  conversation,  kitchens 
have  become  the  new 
gathering  place.  That's  why 
the  lighting  in  your  kitchen 
should  be  as  inviting  as  the 
rest  of  the  house.  These  tips 
from  the  experts  at  Croft  & 
Little,  lighting  retailer  at 
www.croftandlittle.com, 
should  help  shed  some  light: 


•  Avoid  a  single  source  of 
illumination  in  the  center  of 
the  room.  It  provides  little  in 
the  way  of  adequate  task, 
ambient  or  accent  lighting. 

•  Track  lighting  is  often 
used  in  kitchens  and  needs  to 
be  located  much  closer  to  the 
work  surface,  not  positioned 
in  the  center  of  the  room. 

•  Chandeliers  have  moved 
into  the  kitchen.  Chandeliers 


add  a  sense  of  style,  perfect 
for  the  kitchen  that  has 
become  the  center  of 
entertaining. 

•  More  kitchens  are  using 
natural  materials  or  painted 
decorative  finishes;  it  is 
therefore  best  to  direct  the 
light  at  the  front  of  the 
cabinets  to  give  reflective 
light  to  your  work  surfaces.

Guide  To  Successful  Reroofing 


(NAPS)  -  When  you  get 
down  to  it,  a  sturdy  and 
dependable  roof  is  the  first 
line  of  defense  against  harsh 
and  severe  weather-yet  it's 
often  overlooked  when 
planning  routine  home 
maintenance.  Ignoring 
seemingly  small  roof 
problems,  however,  can  hurt 
curb  appeal  and  even  create 
huge  problems  in  the  long 
run.  For  that  reason,  the 
National  Roofing 

Contractors  Association 
recommends  inspecting  your 
roof  twice  a  year.  Here's  how: 

•  Start  outdoors  with  a 
careful  roof  inspection,  using 
binoculais  to  look  for  obvious 


INTS  FOR  HOMEOWNERS 


damage  such  as  warped, 
streaked  or  missing  shingles. 
Follow  the  roofline  with  your 
eyes.  It  should  be  perfectly 
horizontal.  If  it  has  noticeable 
sag,  you  inay  have  a  structural 
problem  created  by 
prolonged  roof  leak. 

•  Because  roof  damage  is 
not  always  obvious  from  the 
outside,  also  do  a 
comprehensive  inspection 
that  includes  a  trip  to  the  attic 
or  crawl  space.  Look  fordark 
water  stains  in  rafters, 
sheathing,  and  insulation  for 
these  are  telltale  signs  of  a 


leaky  roof. 

•  Once  your  inspection  is 
completed  and  you  have 
established  your  needs,  work 
with  a  roofing  contractor  to 
select  the  most  suitable 
shingle.  Consider  climate, 
annual  precipitation  and 
susceptibility  to  storms. 

Most  roofing  material 
manufacturers  offer  shingles 
designed  to  resist  damage 
caused  by  impact  and  high 
winds.  A  long-time  leader  of 
roofing  products, 

CertainTeed  Corporation, 
offers  a  variety  of  impact- 


resistant  shingles  that  protect 
\c>ur  home  w iili  the  highest 
nnpact-resistance  rating  set 
by  Underwriters 

Laboratories. 

If  you're  remodeling  and 
looking  for  a  shingle  to 
beautify  your  roof  and 
increase  your  home's  curb 
appeal,  you  might  like 
Centennial  Slate,  by 
CertainTeed.  It  replicates  the 
natural  beauty  and  color 
variations  of  blended  slate  at 
a  fraction  of  the  cost.

A  Simple  Way  To  Dramatically  Change  A  Room 


(NAPS)  -  Things  are 
looking  up  for  folks  who  want 
to  improve  the  look  of  their 
home  but  are  intimidated  by 
those  "easy -to-do"  projects 
in  home-remodeling  shows. 
Moulding  is  a  prime  example. 

With  a  little  planning,  a 
few  tools  and  some  quick 
calcuLitions,  you  can 
dramatically  change  the  look 
and  feel  of  a  room  m  a  single 
afternoon  without  making  too 
much  of  a  mess.  Moulding 
can  increase  a  home's  style 
and  value  by  adding  visual 
appeal  and  depth  to  rooms. 
Crown  moulding  makes 
ceilings  appear  taller,  while 
chair  rails  add  a  degree  of 
formality. 

There  are  five  things  to 
consider  when  trimming  out 
a  room: 

•  Type.  Not  all  moulding 
is  made  the  same.  Moulding 
made  from  polystyrene 
substrate,  such  us  LP® 
Moulding,  can  be  an 
affordable  allcmatae  to 
wood  -  with  all  of  wood's 
beauty  and  no  need  for 
sanding,  priming  or  sealing.

LP  Moulding  offers 
consistency  in  manufactunng 
that  can't  be  found  with 
wood.  It's  pre-finished  and 
ready  to  in.stall  in  a  variety  of 
finishes  from  white  to 
multiple  wood  grains  to 
match  any  style  of  home. 
Polystyrene  is  also  more 
suitable  than  wood  for  damp 
areas  such  as  bathrooms, 
laundry  rooms  or  kitchens. 

2.  Tools.  Instaling 
moulding  requires  safety 
glasses,  a  pencil,  tape 
measure,  level,  hammer, 
sandpaper,  miter  bo.\,  putty 
or  Spackle,  saw,  fmishing 
nails  and  a  nail  set. 

3.  Amount.  To  calculate 
how  much  you'll  need,  go 
around  the  room  and  make  a 


list  of  the  specific  lengths 
needed.  Total  all  the 
measurements  and  add  10 
percent  forcutting  and  waste. 
Divide  the  number  by  the 
lengths  of  moulding  you've 
chosen  to  determine  how 
much  you  need  to  purchase. 
4  In.stallation.  Since  no 
wall  or  ceiling  is  perfectly 
squrae,  determine  the  height 
for  chair  rails  or  caps  if  using 
them.  Use  a  level  and  pencil 
to  trace  a  line  around  the  room 
as  a  guide  for  hanging.  Then, 
simply  start  hanging  the 
moulding  from  any  comer  in 
the  room  and  nail  into  place. 
Drive  the  nails  to  within  a 
quarter-inch  of  the  moulding 
to  prevent  scarring  the 
moulding  face.  Then  finish

On  ceilings,  its  helpful  to 
use  a  head  ol  caulk  along  the

5.  Finishing.  For  pre- 
finished  moulding,  simply 
touch  up  holes  with  color-

Otherwise,  use  high-quality

Real  Estate  Fraud 

The  number  of  ca.ses  of 
mortgage  and  real  estate 
fraud  continue  to  soar,  and 
law-abiding  buyers  and  sell- 
ers across  the  country  are 
inadvertently  getting  pulled 
into  fraudulent  deals  with- 
out realizing  it.  Often  the 
first  clue  an  innocent  buyer 
or  seller  has  that  something 
is  wrong  is  when  the  author- 
ities show  up  at  the  closing 
table  and  arrest  everyone. 

Here  are  the  possible  play- 
ers in  a  fraudulent  real  estate 
transaction: 

Appraiser  —  Inflates  the 
value  of  the  house  or  hides 
the  true  value  from  the  mort- 
gage company. 

Lender  —  Alters  income, 
employment  and  credit  doc- 
uments or  creates  false  ones 
for  unqualified  buyers;  or 
works  with  appraiser  to 
I  increase  the  value  of  the 
house.  Often  the  lender  gets 
a  kickback  on  the  inflated 
loan  amount. 

Title  company  —  Misrep- 
resents current  and  previous 
,  ownership     and     produces 

forged  deeds. 

I     Buyer  —   Lets   someone 

I  else  use  their  name  and  cred- 

1  it  information  in  exchange 

for  cash,  or  who  takes  cash 

back     at     closing,     never 

intending  to  make  any  of  the 

mortgage  payments. 

Seller  —  Raises  the  price 
of  the  house  and  gives  cash 
back  at  closing  or  agrees  to  a 
silent  second  mortgage  that 
the  lender  doesn't  know 
about. 

Real  estate  agent  —  Pulls 
comparables  in  a  neighbor- 
hood to  justify  the  higher 
price  of  a  house,  or  steers 


unqualified  buyers  to 
lenders  who  will  handle 
"creative"  loans. 

Notary  —  Notarizes  docu- 
ments without  adequate  evi- 
dence of  who's  signing  the 
pajjcrwork. 

Even  the  most  vigilant 
buyer  or  seller  can  inadver- 
tently be  sucked  into  a  real 
estate  scheme.  Before  you 
buy  or  sell,  take  a  look  at 
"Protect  Yourself  from  Real 
Estate  and  Mortgage  Fraud." 
by  Ralph  R.  Roberts  and 
Rachel  Dollar  (Kaplan 
2007).  Due  out  this  summer, 
the  book  walks  you  through 
every  possible  scenario  and 
shows  how  you  can  protect 
yourself. 

Rules  of  thumb: 

•  If  it  isn't  in  writing,  it's 
probably  illegal.  If  every 
dollar  in  a  transaction  isn't 
accounted  for  on  the  HUD-1 
Settlement  Statement,  it's 
evidence  of  fraud. 

•  If  ca.sh  exchanges  hands 
after  closing,  it's  evidence  of 
fraud.

OFF.  PAUL  FOLEY 


A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Wednesday,  Aug.  1,  at  approximately  2:25  a.m., 
Officers  David  Cooper,  Mike  King  and  Paul  Foley  were 
dispatched  to  10  Winter  St. 
on  a  report  of  an  unwanted 
female  trying  to  get  into  the 
apartment  building. 

Officer  Cooper  was  the 
first  to  respond  and  was 
greeted  by  the  caller,  who 
was  yelling  from  her  bal- 
cony that  the  suspect  was 
now  banging  on  her  apart- 
ment door.  Officer  Cooper 
ran  up  to  the  third  floor 

apartment  and  after  a  brief  chase,  he  was  able  to  appre- 
hend the  female  suspect,  a 
.^2-year-old  Quincy  resi- 
dent, and  place  her  under 
arrest  for  "Disturbing  the 
Peace." 

As  she  was  being  led 
^  away,  she  told  Officers  that 
she  was  tryin.g  to  get  into  the 
caller's  apartment  because 
that  is  where  her  ex-boy- 
friend lives,  but  his  mother 
does  not  like  her,  so  she 
"snitched  her  out"  to  the  Police.  She  said  that  her  ex- 
boyfriend  was  in  the  apartment  and  he  had  outstanding 
warrants. 

Officer  King  \  erified  there  was  a  warrant  related  to 
a  past  assault  and  battery  with  a  dangerous  weapon.  At 
this  time,  the  caller  and  her  sister  emerged  from  the 
apartment  building  and  asked  the  Officers  what  hap- 
pened to  the  suspect.  Officer  Cooper  asked  to  speak  to 
the  ex-boyfriend  to  see  if  he  wanted  to  press  charges, 
not  letting  on  that  there  was  an  outstanding  warrant. 

The  caller  said  that  she  did  not  know  where  her  son 
was,  and  adamantly  denied  that  he  was  inside  the  apart- 
ment. When  the  caller  and  her  sister  returned  to  their 
apartment.  Officer  Foley  waited  until  they  went  inside, 
then  turned  down  his  pohce  radio  and  listened  to  their 
conversation. 

Officer  Foley  was  able  to  hear  a  young  male  voice 
inside  and  believed  that  it  could  be  the  suspect  with 
warrants,  so  he  cell-phoned  Officer  Cooper,  telling  him 
to  notify  Communications  that  "all  units  are  clearing." 
While  Officer  Cooper  did  this.  Officer  Foley  could  hear 
the  broadcast  inside  the  apartment,  indicating  that  the 
occupants  were  listening  to  the  scanner  on  cable  tele- 
vision. The  officer  believed  that  the  warrant  suspect 
most  likely  heard  on  the  scanner  that  the  officers  were 
looking  to  arrest  him. 

Officer  Foley  hid  outside  the  apartment  door  and 
minutes  later,  the  door  opened  and  out  came  the  caller's 
sister  and  the  warrant  suspect.  Officer  Foley  walked  up 
behind  him  and  handcuffed  him. 

The  suspect's  mother,  who  was  standing  in  the  apart- 
ment and  heard  the  commotion,  came  out  highly  agi- 
tated and  questioned  the  Officer's  authority  to  make  an 
arrest,  adding  that  she  would  be  filing  a  complaint 
against  him.  At  that  time.  Officer  Foley  informed  the 
mother,  a  4 1  -year-old  Quincy  resident,  that  he  would 
be  filing  a  criminal  complaint  against  her  for  "Mislead- 
ing a  Police  Officer",  based  on  her  intent  on  impeding 
the  arrest  of  her  son. 

No  complaint  was  filed  against  the  officers,  nor  was 
there  any  basis  to  file  a  complaint.  The  criminals  were 
simply  outwitted  by  the  Pohce! 
Nice  Work!

The  American  Cancer  Society 

Urges  Americans  to  Adopt  Healthy  Eating  Habits 


by  Andrea  WyaH 

Arms  That  Look 
Good  in  Tank  Top 

Q,I  would  like  to  fed 
•  comfortable  wear- 
ing sleeveless  shirts,  but 
my  arms  have  NO  muscle 
tone.  What  type  of  exercis- 
es can  I  do  to  tone  the  mus- 
cles of  my  arms  with  hopes 
of  wearing  a  tank  top  by 
the  end  of  summer? 

A, Toned  arm  muscles 
•  are  the  desire  of  many 
exercisers  when  setting 
their  fitness  goals.  The 
appearance  of  strong,  lean 
and  toned  muscles  can  be 
achieved  through  a  compre- 
hensive exercise  program 
that  not  only  focuses  on 
appearance  but  also  stabili- 
ty, muscle  balance  and  func- 
tion. 

The  muscles  most  people 
want  to  tone  are  the  triceps 
(back  of  the  arm),  biceps 
(front  of  the  arm)  and  del- 
toids (shoulders).  Each  of 
these  muscle  groups  must 
work  properly  for  you  to 
maximize  function,  strength 
and  stability.  Although  your 
goal  may  be  to  tone  your 
arms,  an  exercise  program 
that  targets  the  entire  body 
will  help  you  reach  your 
goals. 

As  you  probably  know, 
you  cannot  spot  train  and 
target  just  the  arms  to  pro- 
duce results.  Fortunately, 
we  use  our  arms  while 
working  other  muscle 
gu)ups  such  as  the  chest  and 
back,  so  although  you  are 
not  focusing  just  on  the 
arms  in  those  exercises,  they 
have  to  work  in  order  for 
those  exercises  to  be  com- 
pleted. 

Great  exercises  for  the 
arms  include  bicep  curls, 


triceps  extensions  and 
shoulder  raises.  These  exer- 
cises can  be  done  with 
dumbbells,  resi.stance 

bands,  body  weight  or  with 
exercise  machines.  Be 
patient  when  trying  new 
exercises,  and  complete  sets 
and  repetitions  that  will 
allow  you  to  progress  as  you 
get  stronger. 

Don't  forget  that  exercises 
such  as  push-ups,  pull-ups. 
chest  press  and  rows  also 
require  the  arm  muscles  to 
work,  even  though  they  are 
not  isolated.  Exercises  for 
your  lower  Ixxly  may  not 
seem  to  have  anything  to  do 
with  your  arms,  but  they  can 
help  lower  your  body  fat 
and  mcrease  your  overall 
lean  muscle  mass. 

Give  yourself  several 
weeks  to  begin  to  see 
results,  and  maintain  a  con- 
sistent exercise  regime.  Try 
not  to  overtrain  in  trying  to 
reach  your  goals,  and  allow 
your  body  time  to  recover 
between  higher-intensity 
workouts. 

Remember  that  nutrition 
and  other  positive  lifestyle 
choices  also  are  important 
in  getting  you  in  your 
sleeveless  shirts  in  no  time. 
Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

WE'VE  GOT  YOU  COVERED! 


The  dental  restorations 
known  as  "inlays"  and  "out- 
lays" are  usually  applied  to 
back  teeth  that  have  endured 
significant  damage  due  to  de- 
cay. The  difference  between 
them  is  that  an  inlay  fits 
within  a  prepared  cavity 
while  an  only  covers  the 
tooth's  entire  biting  surface 
and  most  of  the  cusps  in  ad- 
dition to  fitting  within  the 
prepared  cavity.  This  added 
coverage  affords  the  tooth 
more  protection  of  whatever 
little  tooth  structure  remains. 
If  an  onlay  is  intended  for  a 
tooth  that  has  undergone  root 
canal  therapy  or  a  previous 
filling,  the  only's  edges  will 
rest  on  the  tooth's  entire  outer 
circumference  to  protect  if 
from  further  fracture.  Most 
inlays  and  onlays  are  made  of 
an  alloy  of  metals  that  ensures 
durability. 

At  the  initial  consultation 
the  dentist  will  determine 


whether  the  tooth  can  be  re- 
paired using  an  inlay  or  onlay 
procedure  or  whether  a  more

Eat  Your  Way  To  Cancer  Prevention 


(Weston.        MA) 
Following  a  reported  decline 
in  cancer  death  for  2007- 
attributed  to  early  detection 
and  testing.  and 

improvements  in  treatments- 
the  American  Cancer  Society 
wants  that  decline  to  continue 
by  encouraging  Americans 
to  adopt  a  healthy  lifestyle 
that  can  help  prevent  cancer. 

For  the  majority  of  people 
who  do  not  smoke,  the  most 
important  ways  to  reduce 
cancer  risk  include 
maintaining  a  healthy  weight 
and  eating  well,  and  this 
year's  (Jreat  American  Hat 
Right  Challenge  is  designed 
to  help  Americans  do  just 
that. 

Taking  place  on 
Thursday,  August  16  (today), 
this  year's  Challenge  is 
designed  to  encourage 
Americans  to  'Nourish' 
themselves  by  making 
healthy  food  choices  that  can 
help  reduce  their  risk  of 
cancer. 

Poor  nutrition  is  a  risk 
factor  for  cancer,  and 
approximately  one-third  of 
more  than  half  a  million 
deaths  in  the  U.S.  this  year 
can  be  attributed  to  factors 
including  poor  diet.  Being 
overweight  increases  one's 
risk  for  developing  many 
cancers,  including  cancer  of 
the  breast  among  post- 
menopausal women,  colon. 


esophagus  and  kidney. 
Unfortunately,  statistics 
show  that  more  than  half  the 
adult  population  in  every 
state  is  overweight.  In  2005. 
56. 1  %  of  adults  between  the 
ages  of  18  were  clinically 
overweight  in 

Massachu.setts. 

"The  good  news  is  that 
there  are  steps  people  can 
take  each  day  to  help  reduce 
their  risk  of  cancer.  Many 
people  don't  think  they  have 
much  control  over  their 
cancer  risk,  but  we  know  that 
lifestyle  changes  can  make  a 
big  difference,"  said  Colleen 
Doyle,  MS,  RD.  director  of 
nutrition  and  physical 
activity  for  the  American 
Cancer  Society.  "Not  only 
can  watching  what  you  eat 
and  drink  make  a  difference, 
watching  how  much  you  eat 
and  drink  can  help  too." 

According  to  the 
American  Cancer  Society's 
Guidelines  on  Nutrition  and 
Physical  Activity  for  Cancer 
Prevention,  a  healthy  diet 
with  an  emphasis  on  plant 
sources  is  important.  That 
means: 

•  Eating  five  or  more 
servings  of  a  variety  of 
vegetables  and  fruits  each 
day. 

•  Choosing  whole  grains 
in  preference  to  processed 
(refined)  grains. 

•  Limiting  consumption 


of  processed  and  red  meats. 

The  Society's  Great 
American  Eat  Right 
Challenge  Web  site, 
www.cancer.org/ 
greatamericans.  provides  tips 
and  tools  to  help  people  take 
steps  toward  better  health 
through  healthier  diets  and 
habits  like  portion  control.  In 
addition  to  information  about 
how  to  fit  more  nutrient- 
packed  fruits,  vegetables  and 
whole  grains  into  each  day, 
the  site  features  a  healthy 
eating  quiz.  calorie 
calculator,  and  healthy 
recipes.  Visitors  can  also 
check  their  body  mass  index 
(BMl)  to  determine  whether 
or  not  they  are  at  a  healthy 
weight,  and  can  get  some 
practical  tips  for  achieving 
and  maintaining  a  healthy 
weight. 

Throughout  the  year,  the 
Society  will  help  people  learn 
what  they  can  do  to  maintain 
a  healthy  weight  and  reduce 
their  cancer  risk.  People 
without  online  access  can  call

One  Important  Keepsake  As  You  Age:  lour  Teeth 


(NAPS)  -  With  each 
passing  decade,  it's  easy  to 
get  nostalgic  and  remember 
the  "good  old  days."  Maybe 
it  was  when  the  kids  still  lived 
at  home  (or  when  the  kids 
moved  out),  when  the  first 
grandchild  arrived  or  when 
you  still  had  all  your  teeth. . . 

As  the  first  wave  of  baby 
boomers  begins  to  turn  60, 
the  good  news  is  the  promise 
of  a  longer,  fuller  life  than 
any  other  generation,  with 
many  boomers  committed  to 


maintaining  optimal  health. 
As  part  of  this  increased 
focus,  experts  want  to  ensure 
that  good  oral  hygiene  is  not 
just  a  thing  of  the  past. 

Research  has  shown  that 
there  is  a  strong  link  between 
oral  health  and  overall  health. 
For  baby  boomers,  this  means 
maintaining  proper  care  of 
their  natural  teeth,  since  one 
of  the  biggest  detriments  to 
oral  health  and  potentially 
overall  health  is  tooth  loss.  If 
a  tooth  becomes  infected  and

is  not  treated  with  a  root  canal, 
it  typically  must  be  extracted. 

Endodontists.  the  root 
canal  specialist,  can  help. 
Root  canals  save  more  than 
1 7  million  teeth  a  year. 

"I  remember  my  parents 
needing  dentures,"  says 
Teresa  Cyrwus  of  Park 
Ridge,  111.,  who  will  mm  56 
this  year.  "Instead,  I've  had 
two  root  canals  to  help 
preserve  my  natural  teeth." 

Untreated,  infected  teeth 
can  lead  to  other  oral 
complications,  including 
gum  disease.  Several  studies 
have  demonstrated  that  gum- 
or  periodontal-disease  can 
lead  to  a  variety  of  health 
complications,  including 
cardiovascular  disease  and 
diabetes.  A  root  canal 
removes  the  infected  tissue 
inside  the  tooth  and  helps  to 
reduce  the  risk  of  periodontal 
disease. 

An  additional  study  from 
the  January  2007  Journal  of 
the  National  Cancer  Instimte 
showed  an  increased  risk  of 
pancreatic  cancer  in 
individuals  who  had 
experienced  tooth  loss. 

"Given  the  connection 


between  oral  health  and 
overall  health,  taking  care  of 
their  teeth  should  become  just 
as  important  to  baby  boomers 
as  eating  well  and  regular 
exercise,"  says  Dr.  Shepard 
Goldstein,  president  of  the 
American  Association  of 
Endodontists  (AAE)  and  an 
endodontist  in  Framingham, 
Mass.  "When  a  tooth  is 
infected,  a  root  canal  is  the 
best  way  to  save  the  natural 
tooth  function  and  avoiding 
health  comphcations." 

According  to  Dr. 
Goldstein,  endodontists  are 
prepared  to  help  baby 
boomers  achieve  their  best 
possible  dental  health. 
"Thanks  to  advances  in  dental 
care,  most  baby  boomers  will 
keep  their  natural  teeth  for 
life,  unlike  their  parents, 
many  of  whom  ended  up 
wearing  dentures. 

Maintaining  your  natural 
teeth  is  another  vital  step  in 
achieving  optimal  overall 
health,  and  root  canal 
procedures  are  essential  for 
preserving  namral  teeth."

Jonathan  Sheehan  Cycles  For  Very  Worthy  Cause 

7tli  Grader  Rides  In  Kids  Pan-Mass  Bicycle 
Challenge,  Raises  $1,605  For  Jimmy  Fund 

B>  SEAN  BRKNNAN 

Like  mi>st  kids  his  age, 
Jonatluin  Sheehan  eii)o\  sthe 
occasional  bike  ride. 

But  unhke  most  kids  his 
age,  Sheehan  recently  took  a 
bike  ride  tor  a  most  worthy 
cause. 

On  June  24,  Jonathan 
Sheehan  took  part  in  the  Kids 
Pan-Mass  Challenge  Bike 
Ride  in  Hingham.  The  Kids 
PMC  is  an  offshoot  of  the 
larger  two-day  Pan- Mass 
Challenge  that  took  place  tw  o 
weekends  ago.  But  both  rides 
have  the  same  mission- 
raising  money  for  cancer 
research  and  treatment  at 
Dana-Farber  Cancer  Institute 
through  its  Jimmy  Fund.  The 
Kids  PMC  offers  a  way  for 
children  (age  3- 1 5 )  to  become 
part  of  the  PMC  mission  and 
actively  work  to  help  those 
in  need  of  cancer  treatment. 

Jonathan,  age  7,  is  a 
Quincy  resident  and  soon- 
to-be  a  third  grader  at 
Merrymount  Elementary 
School,  and  he  raised  money 
and  rode  in  the  Kids  PMC  for 
his  grandfather,  Russell  who 
was  diagnosed  with  cancer 
in  the  spring. 

Sheehan  started  the  2.5- 
mile  Crusader  ride  at 
Hingham  High  School.  He 
followed  a  course  that  led 
him  through  Wampatuck 
State  Park  and  back  to  the 
high  school.  By  sending  out 
letters  to  family  and  friends, 
Sheehan  raised  $  1 ,605  for  the 
Jimmy  Fund. 

"With  the  help  of  my  mom 
and  dad,  1  sent  out  a  letter  to 
my  family  and  friends  and 
asked  them  if  they  would 
donate  money  for  the  bike 
ride,"  Sheehan  said  shyly  last 
month.  "I  decided  to  do  the 
Kids      PMC       for      my

JONATHAN  SHEEHAN,  age  7,  raised  $1,605  in  support  of 
the  Kids  Pan-Mass  Bilie  Challenge.  The  money  Jonathan  raised 
will  go  directly  to  the  Jimmy  Fund  to  help  doctors  and 
researchers  at  Dana-Farber  find  a  cure  for  cancer.

race  for  me,  but  it  was  a  long

Over  550  bikers  between 
the  ages  of  3  and  1 5  took  part 
in  the  Kids  Pan-Mass 
Challenge  and  in  total  the 
550  bikers  raised  over 
$6 1 ,000  to  contribute  to  Dan- 
Farber,  1007r  of  which  went 
directly  to  the  Jimmy  Fund. 

"I  love  riding  my  bike  and 
just  decided  that  this  was 
something  I  wanted  to  do," 
Sheehan  added.  "If  enough 
people  and  kids  do  this,  1  saw 
that  in  the  future  the  doctors 
will  find  a  cure.  It  was  hot. 
but    there    was    enough 


The  Quincy  Track  Club 
concluded  its  highly  popular 
Track  &  Field  University' 
program  with  an  award  pizza 
party,  which  was  held  at  the 
Koch  Family  Recreation 
Complex. 

Children  in  the  program 
were  taught  the  fundamentals 
of  stretching,  warm-up 
training.  anatomy, 

physiology,  team  dynamics, 
sportsmanship,  sports 
medicine  and  rules  and 
regulations  of  the  sport  of 
track  &  field. 

Younger  athletes  ages  5- 


8  were  rotated  through  six 
field  event  stations  coached 
by  current  high  school 
athletes. 

The  program  was  held 
every  Thursday  at 
Cavanaugh  Field  in  North 
Qumcy.  Graduates  of  this 
year's  program  were  given  a 
certificate  and  those  with  the 
most  nights  attended  will 
receive  warm-up  jerseys, 
singlets  and  shorts,  bags  and 
water  bottles  at  the  Quincy 
Track  Club's  annual  awards 
banquet  to  be  held  on  October 
4 at  Lombardo'  s  in  Randolph. 


me  going  for  the  entire  bike 
ride." 

The  Kids  PMC  was 
entertained  by  98.5  Mix  radio 
with  music  and  activities  for 
everyone  involved,  and  the 
racers  were  cheered  on  by 
MC  Channel  5's  Kelley 
Tuthill,  who  grew  up  in 
Hingham,  and  is  fighting 
breast  cancer. 

The  creator  of  the  Kids 
PMC,  Billy  Starr,  told  all  kids 
how  important  they  all  were 
to  the  effort  and  that  this  event 
was  just  the  beginning  of 
what  he  hoped  would  be  their 
life-long  habit  of 
volunteering  and  fundraising. 
Sheehan  agreed,  and  said  that 
he  would  definitely  be  riding 
again  next  year. 

"i  am  planning  on  riding 


again  next  year.  It  was  so 
much  fun  and  it  was  for  a 
good  cause,  which  1  liked." 

His  parents,  Jeff  and 
Janice,  and  his  little  sister, 
Julianne,  age  4,  joined 
Jonathan  at  the  Kids  PMC. 
His  grandparents,  Russell 
and  Donna,  were  also  in 
Hingham  to  cheer  him  on. 

"My  parents  and 
grandparents  and  sister  were 
all  at  the  race  cheering  me 


on."  Sheehan  said.  "It  really 
helped  me.  especially  at  the 
half-way  mark  when  I 
stopped  for  water.  They  were 
supporting  me  all  the  way." 
At  the  finish  line,  all  the 
riders  finished  under  a  bright 
balloon  arch,  cheered  on  by 
their  families  and  all  the 
volunteers.  All  550  bikers 
received  a  medal,  which  they 
all  proudly  displayed  the  rest 
of  the  day.  The  after-party 


enteilainmont  included  Jenny 
the  Juggler,  a  Hip-Hopdance 
troupe  and  a  rallle. 

"The  day  was  a  success 
beyond  imagination."  said 
Melissa  Robin,  co-chair  of 
the  Kids  PMC.  "DcMiations 
are  still  flowing  in  and  it's 
not  too  late  to  contribute." 

Ifyou  would  like  to  donate

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  A  strong  social  whirl 
brings  a  new  round  of  good 
times  to  fun-loving  Rams  and 
Ewes.  Cupid  is  also  busy 
aiming  arrows  at  single 
Lambs  hoping  for  a  heart-to- 
heart  encounter. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  A  romantic  incident 
could  take  a  more  .serious 
turn  if  the  Divine  Bovine 
considers  meeting  Cupid's 
challenge.  Meanwhile,  a  pro- 
fessional opportunity  is  also 
about  to  turn  up. 

GEMINKMay  21  to  June 
20)  A  bit  of  hardheaded  real- 
ism could  be  just  what  the 
Twins  need  at  this  emotional- 
ly challenged  time.  Face  the 
facts  a.s  they  are,  not  as  you 
want  them  to  be.  Good  luck. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Many  opportunities  open 
up.  But  you  need  to  be  aware 
of  their  actual  pros  and  cons. 
Checlc  them  all  out  and  make 
your  choice  from  those  that 
offer  more  of  what  you  seek. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  more  .stable  situation 
begms,  allowing  you  to  feel 
more  secure  about  making 
important  decisions.  Mean- 
while, be  sure  to  meet  your 
project  deadline  so  you  can 
move  on  to  other  things. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Congratulations. 
A  new  personal  relationship 
thrives  as  you  leam  how  to 
make  room  in  your  busy  life 
for  this  wonderfully  warm 
and  exciting  emotional  expe- 
rience. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  A  new  contact 
opens  some  doors.  That's  the 
good  news.  But  there's  a  cau- 
tion involved:  Be  sure  you 
protect  your  rights  to  your 
work  before  showing  it  to 
anyone. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21 )  A  former  col- 
league might  seek  to  resume 
a  working  partnership.  Ask 
yourself  if  you  need  it.  If  yes, 
get  more  information.  If  no, 
respectfully  decline  the 
request. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Good 
times  dominate  your  aspect. 
So  why  not  have  a  party  to 
celebrate  a  loved  one's  suc- 
cess? And  do  invite  that  spe- 
cial person  you  want  to  know 
better. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  The  shy 
side  of  the  Sea  Goat  soon 
gives  way  to  your  more 
assertive  self.  This  should 
help  you  when  it  comes  time 
to  speak  up  for  yourself  and 
your  achievements. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  A  new  period  of 
stability  will  help  you  deal 
with  some  recently  reworked

A  TkOUGHT 

Throughout  our  lives  failures  come 
to  all  of  us.  Sometimes  no  matter  hoM 
hard  we  try  things  will  go  wrong.  We 
should  all  remember  that  whatever 
we  may  look  like  to  the  world  - 
whether  it  be  hopelessly  inefTicient 
or  brilliantly  successful  -  most  of  us 
know  that  accordingly  to  our  own 
guideposts,  we  have  failed  at  some  time  or  another. 

"He  who  hopes  to  avoid  all  failure  and  misfortune  is 
tr>ing  to  live  in  a  fairyland:  the  wise  man  realistically 
accepts  failures  as  a  part  of  life  and  builds  a  philosophy  to 
meet  them  and  make  the  most  of  them. . .  He  learns  from  the 
scientist  who  said.  "At  best,  research  is  about  99 '^'r  failure 
and  1  ^t  success  and  the  1  ^k  is  the  only  that  counts."  - 
Wilfred  A.  Peterson. 

To  put  is  another  way  -  Isn't  it  true  we  would  feel  a  lot 
less  .sensitive  about  failure  if  we  remembered  it  just  doesn't 
matter,  except  as  a  guidepost  for  ourselves?  Isn't  it  true  that 
there  is  no  such  thing  as  utter  failure  to  one  who  has  done 
his  best? . . .

"No  hassles,"  Fay  said, 
"We   just   want   the  quilts 


back."  .She  described  how 
quilters  use  sentimental  items 
in  creating  their  quilts  which 
they  olten  give  lor  wedding, 
birthdays,  anniversaries  and 
other  special  occasions. 

One  ot  Fay's  own  works 
was  stolen.  Herquilt,  like  the 
others,  can  not  be  valued  as 
her  quilt  was  created  with 
her  late  lather's  shirt  and  tie 
as  a  memorial.  Now,  it  is 
gone. 

Actually,  Fay  said,  "There 
were  nine  taken."'  However, 
that  thiet  v\as  caught  in  the 
act.  "A  patron  saw  one  put- 
ting one  in  her  purse  and  said,

"The  library  has  some 
homeless  jieople  who  go  in

saiil,  adding  "I'm  so  sorry.  1 
should  have  asked  more  ques- 
tu>ns." 

Asked  about  the  theft  and 
security  issues.  Library  Di- 
rector Ann  McLaughlin  said, 
"We  are  very,  very  distressed. 
We  never  had  any  art  work 
stolen." 

McLaughlin  said  that  the 


current  budget  actually  in- 
creased the  library's  security 
force  by  an  additional  half- 
time  person. 

In  addition,  she  said  that 
custodians  are  on  duty  and 
on  watch  during  the  daytime, 
"I  think  that  the  staff  does 
challenge  people." 

As  for  homeless  persons' 
visiting  the  library, 
McLaughlin  said  that  patrons 
aren't  interrogated  as  to  their 
living  arrangements. 

McLaughlin  pointed  out 
that  "It  was  a  homeless  per- 
son that  went  after  the  quilt 
that  was  stolen.."'  That  same 
women  was  responsible  for 
the  return  of  the  eighth  quilt. 

Fay,  also,  said  that  she 
has  notified  all  the  quilters" 
groups  in  the  surrounding 
area  to  watch  for  the  stolen 
items. 

She  said  it  is  a  very  tight 
knit  community  and  pointed

With  a  dcfl  snip  of  her

ribbon  officially  opening 
the  new  home  of  the 
Germantown  Neighbor- 
hood Center  Tuesday  in 
the  old  St.  Boniface 
Catholic  Church. 

The  ribbon-cutting  cer-

the  Germantown  Neigh- 
borhood Council.  Waid  1 
Citv  Councillor  Leo  Kellv 


and  the  South  Shore  Build-

"The  Center  is  a  true 
neighborhood  institution  that 
would  not  have  been  pos- 
sible without  a  community 
collaboration,"  said  Mayor 
William  Phelan. 

"The  wonderful  new 
space  provided  within  the 
former  St.  Boniface  Church 
will  enable  the  community 
center  to  ser\e  more  indi-

Retirement  Board 
Begins  Siciliano 
Pension  Review 


B>  LAI  RA  GRIFFIN 

The  QuincN  Retiicmcnt 
Board  Monday  began  re- 
viewing the  rape  conviction 
of  former  city  employee  An- 
thony Siciliano  to  determine 
whether  or  not  to  rcxokc  his 
$.^4,860  annual  pension. 

On  .kily  .^0,  Siciliano  w  as 
con\  icted  by  a  Nortolk  Su- 
perior Court  jury  o\'  three 
counts  of  statutory  rape  oi'  a 
teenage  boy  and  is  currently 
serxing  a  \om  to  five  year 
prison  term.  At  this  time,  he 
is  receiving  his  full  pension. 

The  Board  will  determine 
if  the  crimes  (Kcurred  in  con- 
nection with  Siciliano's  offi- 
cial position  with  the  city.  If 
so,  it  could  lead  to  revoca- 
tion of  his  pension. 

Siciliano,  a  .^O-year  em- 
ployee of  the  city,  was  em- 
ployed as  Cjeneral  Foreman 
with  the  Department  of'I  I  af- 


fic  aiul  Parking  and,  also, 
headed  the  city  "s  Emergency 
Management  .Agency.  Dur- 
ing his  employment,  he  con 
tributed  some  $(-»^>,{)()()  to  the 
pension  fund.

iam I'helan  liivdhim  in  2002. 
Last  week.  Phelan  c.illed  for 
the  Retirement  Board  \o  re 
voke  Siciliano's  pension. 

"We're  not  here  to  retry 
the  criminal  case."  the 
board's  attorney  Michael 
Sacco  said  in  his  opening  re- 
marks. "That  issue  is  not  be- 
fore us." 

Sacco  said  that  the  board 
must  determine  if  there  is  a 
"link  between  his  Job  and  the 
crime.. ..  lt"s  up  to  the  board 
to  find  the  link." 

Sacco  said  that  revoking  a 
pensmn  is  sometimes  very 


clear  when  an  individual  is 
"stealing  niiMu-\  out  ol  the 
till  at  work,  riiosc  aic  llic 
easv  ones." 

In  otiici  cases,  Sacco  said 
that  the  ilcciMuii  i'  more  dit  -

fotenian  orCjcneial  Director 
of  l-JiiergencN  Manage- 
ment." Collins  chose  lo  have 
an  open  hearing  on  behalf  of 
Ins  client. 

"The  board  can  not  specu 
late"  Collins  said,  noting  that 
the  times  and  actual  dates  of 
the  alleged  rape  incidents  are 
not  part  of  the  court  record.

WORK,  Inc.,  has  begun  a 
capital  campaign  with  a  goal 
of  a  million  dollars  to  reno-

The  agency  purchased  in 


April  the  Dorchester  site, 
which  is  three  times  as  large 
as  the  North  Quincy  facility 
and  well  able  to  handle  the 
more  than  450  individuals 
that  are  served  each  year. 

WORK  anticipates  reach- 
ing its  million  dollar  capital 
campaign  goal  by  Septem- 
ber, 2008,  with  donations

The  total  cost  of  the 
project  is  expected  to  be  $  1 3 
million.

'Nebbie'  McLelhm  Honored  At  Party 

100  Roses  From  Secret  Admirer 
On  Her  100th  Birthday 


By  LAURA  CRIFFIN 

It's  not  every  day  that  a 
secret  admirer  sends  100 
long  stem  roses  to  a  lady. 

Then,  again,  it's  not 
every  day  that  a  lady  cel- 
ebrates her  100'"  birthday. 

But,  on  Monday,  Nesbit 
"Nebbie"  McLellan  did 
celebrate  her  first  century 
at  a  party  with  cake  and 
fruit  and  balloons  and  ro.scs 
at  Fenno  House  in 
Wollaston.  Nebbie,  as  she 
is  called,  is  a  lifelong  resi- 
dent of  Quincy. 

"One  of  the  residents 
bought  her  1 00  roses,"  Ac- 
tivities Director  Amanda 
Anis  said  of  the  vase  of 
red,  pink  and  yellow  roses. 
Anis  said  that  Nebbie's 
male  friend  decided  to  keep 
his  name  secret. 

Some  50  to  60  relatives 
and  friends  sang  "Happy 
Birthday"  to  Nebbie  as  the 
cake  was  cut  and  the  party 
began  and  she  was  show- 
ered with  cards,  gifts,  and 
$250  from  fellow  resi- 
dents. She'll  use  that  for 
shopping  w  iih  her  daugh- 
ter Lillian  Kreilman  who 
also  enjoyed  the  festivi- 
ties, alone  w  ith  her  iirand- 
son. 


A  GIFT  OF  KM)  ROSES  was  sent  to  Nesbit  "Nebbie"  McLellan 
who  celebrated  her  100th  birthday  at  Fenno  House,  Wollaston. 
Activites  Director  .Amanda  Anis  holds  the  vase  of  multi-colored 
roses.  (Quincx  Siai  Photo/hiuni  (iriffin) 


"It  was  beautiful.  I  never 
had  anything  like  it  before," 
Nebbie  said  three  hours  later 
as  she  described  the  after- 
noon. B\   that  liine,  nearlv 


hall  of  the  fourth  floor  where 
she  often  sits  and  greets  fel- 
low residents.  She  wanted  to 
share  their  bcautv ,  said  Anis. 
"She  goes  shopping  v\ith 


4:30  p.m.,  Nehbic  was  tired  her  daughter,  lood.  clothes. ""

After  her  party,  Nebbie  go  lood  shopping." 
had  the  roses  placed  in  the 


"She's  our  second  100 
year  old,"  Marrocco  said, 
describing  a  former  resi- 
dent who  celebrated  the 
100-year  mark  nearly  a  de- 
cade ago. 

"She  lives  indepen- 
dently. She's  the  last  per- 
son tocomplain,"  said  Anis 
of  the  four  foot  eight  inch 
Nebbie  who  gets  around 
on  the  elevators  and  in  the 
corridors  on  her  own  with 
her  walker 

"She  goes  downstairs, 
checks  the  mailbox.  She's 
ama/ing,"  said  fellow  resi- 
dent Jean  Cristiani  who 
called  Nebbie  "unbeliev- 
able." Once  in  a  while. 
Nebbie  will  knock  on 
Cristiani's  door  and  dis- 
cuss the  meals  delivered. 

"She's  kind  of  a  fixture 
in  this  building  "  said  Rose 
O'Neill,  another  resident 
of  1  enno  House. 

Right  now,  Nebbie's 
eyesight  and  hearing  are 
lessening  but  her  mind  is 
sharp  as  a  tack,  said  .Anis

The  Next  Council  President? 


With  no  preliminary  election  this  tall-tor  the  first 
time  in  67  years-there  hasn't  been  much  action  on  the 
political  front. 

There"  s  been  a  tew  grenades  tossed  tVom  the  opposing 
mayoral  camps  but  nothing  really  explosive. 

The  preliminary  election  that  was  scheduled  tor 
Sept.  ly  was  called  oH because  ot" a  lack  <^\  players. 

Not  enough  candidates  tor  nuiNor.  city  council  and

(()i(;nLiN 


DAVIS 


iMcFARLAND 


Three  names  being  mentioned  as  "interested" 
candidates  are  Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin  Coughlin. 
V\  aid  4  Councillor  Jav  Davis  and  Councillor  at-large 
.Mike  McF-^arland.  Could  be  others. 

The  council  presidency  has  long  been  seen  as  the 
springboard  to  the  mavor's  office.  And.  next  to  the 
mavor.  the  president  is  considered  the  most  powerful 
elected  official  under  the  city's  Plan  A  charter. 

He  ( she )  presides  over  the  council  meetings,  appoints 
the  chairmen  and  members  of  the  council  committees 
and  serves  as  acting  mayor  in  the  absence  or  illness  of 
the  mayor. 

The  springboard  to  the  mayor's  office?  Sometimes. 
Not  always.  And  sometimes  it's  a  delayed  spring. 

.Among  council  presidents  w  ho  became  mayor  w  ere 
Joseph  Whiton.  Charles  Rt)ss.  Tom  Burgin,  Amelio 
Delia  Chiesa.  James  .Mclnlyre.  Joseph  LaRaia.  Arthur 
Tobin  and  James  Sheets. 

But  oi  those,  onlv  two  went  directly  from  council 
president  to  His  Honor:  Whiton  in  1917  and  Tobin  in 
197-'. 

Mclntvre  and  LaRaia  lost  mayoral  bids  running  as 
council  presidents. 

.\lchiivie  was  defeated  by  incumbent  Delia  Chiesa 
in  1959butw(>nin  1%5  when  DellaChiesa retired. The 
opponent  he  defeated  was  LaRaia  who  was  council 
president  at  the  time. 

LaRaia  came  back  to  w  in  the  mayor's  office  in  1 975. 
upsetting  incumbent  Walter  Hannon  by  483  votes  in 
that  famous  recount. 

But  two  V  ears  later,  he  lost  to  Tobin  w  ho  vy  as  running 
as  council  president. 


You  don ' t  have  to  be  a  council  president  first  to  reach 
the  mayor's  office.  Hannon  and  Frank  McCauley  are 
examples. 

So  is  Mayor  William  Phelan  who  not  only  was  never 
council  president  but  never  served  in  the  council  from 
w  here  nK)st  mayors  come  fi\)m. 

He  was  a  relatively  political  newcomer  in  his  second 
year  as  a  school  committee  member  when  he  upset 
Sheets  by  I  7  votes  in  200 1  -the  closest  mayoral  election 
in  the  citv's  history. 

But  the  council  presidency  is  still  considered  a  big 
stepping  stone  to  the  mavor's  office. 

riie  new  president,  howcv er,  will  be  limitetl  to  two 
one-vcar  terms.  That  limit  was  set  b>  the  council  iifter 
lobin  served  eight  vears  as  president, 

It  later  vv  as  changed,  allow  ing  Peter  Kolson  to  serve 
tour  veai--   It  is  now  back  to  two  years. 

.\iid.  the  next  council  president.., ',' 

J 

HURRICANE  DEAN  is  roaring  intt)  histoiy  as  one 
(.>!  the  big  ones. 

In  case  you're  interested,  the  Massachusetts 
Emergencv  Nhinagement  Agency  has  listed  the  names 
of  other  .Atlantic  hurricanes  for  this  year: 

Erin.  Felix.  Gabrielle.  Humberto.  Ingrid.  Jeny.  Karen. 
Loren/o.  Melissa.  Noel.  Olga.  Pablo,  Rebekah. 
Sabastien.  Tanya.  Van.  Wendy. 

Hope  we  never  get  to  meet  them. 

MEMA.  incidentally,  notes  that  until  1 953,  hurricanes 
were  referred  to  by  the  year  or  location,  such  as  "The 
Hunicaneof  1 938."  "The  Galveston  Hurricane  of  1900" 
etc. 

In  1953  the  National  Hurricane  Center  began  using 
female  names  and  in  1979  started  alternating  female 
and  male  names.  (Nice  of  them  to  give  men  equal 
rights.) 

But  I  still  think  female  names  are  more  appropriate 
when  Mother  Nature  kicks  up  her  heels. 

ANYONE  REMEMBER  a  peanut  store  in  Quincy? 

Walter  Whidden  of  Elm  Street  sent  a  note  to  Tom 
Calvin  whose  "Scenes  From  Yesterday.",  as  you  know, 
is  a  popular  Quincy  Sun  feature. 

Tom  doesn't  remember  such  a  store  and  passed  the 
note  on  to  us  to  see  if  we  could  find  a  reader  who  might 
remember  the  store. 

Whidden' s  note  reads: 

"I  grew  up  in  Mattapan.  Occasionally,  my  father 
would  take  us  to  Nantasket  Beach  and  he  would  drive 
through  Quincy  Square,  This  was  in  the  40s, 

"I  remember  him  stopping  at  a  store  that  sold  peanuts. 
The  w  alls  of  the  .store  were  lined  with  peanuts. 

"When  I  tell  local  people  about  this,  no  one  seems  to 
remember  this  store.  Did  I  dream  this?  Any  information 
you  might  have  on  this  would  be  greatly  appreciated." 

Anyone  remember?

THIS  IS  A  1925  real  photo  postcard  view  of  Wollaston 
Beach  from  near  the  end  of  Rice  Road  h>oking  north. 
Flooding  along  here  during  storms  led  to  the  first  sea- 
wall being  built  the  length  of  the  beach  the  following 
year.  In  the  distant  right  is  the  Wollaston  Yacht  Club. 
In  front  of  it  is  one  of  the  floats  that  the  Metropolitan 
Commission  put  along  the  beach  in  the  summer  for 


V 


swimming.  The  woman  who  sent  this  postcard  came 
down  to  Wollaston  from  Albany,  N.Y.,  perhaps  in  a 
Model  T  parked  on  the  left.  W  ith  the  recent  upgrading 
of  the  streetscape  along  here  this  scene  is  quite  differ- 
ent today.  To  contact  lom  (lalvin,  e-mail

Responds  To  Koch  On  Mayor's  Tax  Survey 


I  would  like  to  submit  the 
following  letter  to  the  editor 
to  set  the  record  straight  on 
the  Mayor's  Tax  Survey.  All 
of  the  statistics  that  I  quote 
in  this  letter  come  from  the 
Department  o\  Revenue's 
Municipal  Data  Bank. 

I  w  ould  like  to  respond  to 
Mr.  Koch's  concerns  (Sun 
issue  Aug.  16)  over  the 
Mayor's  Tax  Survey.  I  take 
exception  to  Mr.  Koch's 
statement  that  "we  need  a 
leader  that  listens  and  re- 
sponds to  the  concerns  of  ris- 
ing taxes,  not  orders  a  politi- 
cal appointee  to  write  a  mis- 
leading study." 

I  have  spent  numerous 
hours  as  the  former  Vice 
President  and  Research  Di- 
rector of  the  Quincy  Taxpay- 


ers fighting  for  the  taxpay- 
ers of  Quincy.  I  ha\e  in  the 
past  and  I  continue  to  send 
letters  to  the  Mayor  and  the 
City  Council  on  financial 
matters,  which  1  belie\e 
could  he  beneficial  to  the 
City  and  the  taxpayers.  1 
never  discussed  w  riting  any 
report  for  the  Mayor  that 
would  lead  to  my  appoint- 
ment on  the  Quincy  Retire- 
ment Board  or  any  other  po- 
sition. In  fact.  1  applied  for 
the  Treasurer/Collector  posi- 
tion in  Quincy  and  did  not 
get  the  position. 

Tom  Koch  is  queued  as 
saying.  "We  need  to  be 
straight  with  the  residents 
about  taxes."  The  Depart- 
ment of  Revenue  documents 
these  increases.  The  in- 


creases for  Fiscal  ^'ear  200.^ 
were  negatixe  .059r,  the  Fis- 
cal \'cd\  2006  increase  was 
I.26',r.  and  the  Fiscal  Year 
2007  uas  2.6.Vr  .  These 
numbers  stand  an  their  ow  n. 

The  Cit\  of  Qumev  has 
had  a  v\ell-documented  fi- 
nancial turnaround  under 
Mayor  Phelan.  In  Fiscal  "I'ear 
2007,  the  Cit\  "s  Free  Cash 
was  $5.6^)4.245.  A  turn- 
around o\  oxer  ten  ( 10)  mil- 
lion dollars.  This  money  can 
and  is  used  to  reduce  the 
Cit\  "s  tax  rate. 

In  Fiscal  Year  2003.  the 
City  o'i  Quinex  's  Stabiliza- 
tion Fund  uas  S2.1.v\016. 
These  funds  can  be  used  for 
capital  pnijects  such  as  road 
construction,  building  re- 
pairs, and  equipment  pur- 


chases. In  Fiscal  Year  2007 
the  City  has  $10,109,795  in 
the  Stabilization  Fund.  This 
is  an  increase  of  approxi- 
matel\  SS  million

could  ha\e  been  le\ied 
against  the  taxpayers  but 
were  not  because  of  prudent

Quincy  Athletes  Need  A  Track  -  Sooner  The  Better 


Recently,  .ludith  Krimski 
voiced  her  displeasure  \\  ith 
the  proposed  site  t>f  Quincy  s 
new  track  and  has  urged  the 
citizens  oi  Qumcx  to  sign  a 
petition  oppt>sing  the  Pag- 
eant Field  KKation. 

Ms.  Kriinski  mcorrectlx 
stated  that  once  the  track  is 
built,  the  public  vsould  not 
have  the  same  access  {o  Pag- 
eant Field  as  it  has  today.  In 
actuality,  the  field  v\ill  con- 
tinue w  ill  continue  to  be  used 
by  youth  football  and  youth 
soccer.  Pageant  Field  will 
still  be  available  to  the  pub- 
lic forcookouts,  outings  and 
dog  walking,  and  concerts 
and  other  productions  will 
continue  in  the  Ruth  Cjordon 
Amphitheater. 

This  beautiful  open  space 
will  be  maintained;  the  area 
will  not  be  fenced  with 
chain-link  fencing.  It  will  not 
be  gated.  There  will  be  no 
bleachers  or  other  permanent 
seating  will  be  erected  to  mar 
the  view,  and  anv  trees. 


which  must  be  remo\  ed.  v\  ill

The  plan  as  outlined  and 
approved  calls  io\  the  re-

Frankly,  as  a  nation.  1  think 
we're  passive  enough.  Heck, 
we're  the  fattest  natimi  on

and  it's  unarguably  the  most 
economical  and  environ- 
mentally sound  site  of  all 
originally  proposed. 

1  presented  Pageant  Field 
to  the  Mayor  over  two  years 
ago  as  the  best  possible  place 
tor  a  track  commensurate 
with  all  our  other  sporting 
venues  and  was  warmly  re- 
ceived. It  wasn't  thrust  upon 
the  track  comnuinity,  as 
some  would  have  you  be- 
lieve-quite the  opposite.  It 
just  made  more  sense  to 
build  a  track  in  the  most  cen- 
tral location,  costing  taxpay- 
ers the  least  and  iloing  the 
least  damage  [o  the  environ- 
ment. 

How  can  anyone  argue

Koch  Calls  Sterling  Elimination 
'Unacceptable  Casualty' 


Granite  Workers  13th 
Annual  Concert  Aug.  27 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  today  called  the  recent 
elimination  of  Sterling 
Middle  School  from  the  list 
of  potential  state-funded 
school  renovation  projects 
"another  unacceptable  casu- 
alty" of  the  current 
administration's  school 
building  program. 

The  state  School  Building 
Authority  told  local  officials 
across  the  state  that  they 
must  select  only  one  major 
project  to  be  considered  lor 
state  reconstruction  money, 
forcing  the  school  conmiit- 
lee  to  choose  between  pick- 
ing either  Central  Middle 
School  or  Sterling  Middle 
School. 

The  committee  voted  last 
week  to  select  Central 
Middle  School,  which  Koch 
said  would  have  been  guar- 
anteed state  funding  several 
years  ago  if  not  for  a  series 
of  critical  mistakes  by  the 
administration. 

"The  school  committee 
simply  should  never  have 
been  put  in  this  position," 
Koch  said.  "If  we  had  sim- 
ply listened  to  state  officials, 
stopped  picking  fights  at  ev- 
ery turn,  and  filed  the  correct 
paperwork.  Central  Middle 
School  would  already  be 
guaranteed  state  money  and 
we  could  be  working  on  Ster- 
ling right  now." 

Koch  said  providing  ad- 
equate and  well-maintained

learning  spaces  for  Quincy's 
children  is  the  mayor's  most 
important  role  in  education, 
adding  his  administration 
plans  a  complete  overhaul  of 
how  the  city  is  dealing  with 
school  buildings  on  both 
major  projects  and  minor  re- 
pairs. 

Koch  said  the  current  ad- 
ministration has  spent  so 
much  time  and  money  on 
plans  for  a  new  Quincy  High 
School,  conditions  at  other 
schoc^ls  are  now  in  serious 
need  ol  attention. 

"We  need  leadership  on 
this  issue.  We  need  over- 
sight, and  we  need  account- 
ability not  just  on  the  major 
projects  but  m  so  many  of 
other  schools  that  are  suffer- 
ing today  because  we  are 
bogged  down  with  the  high 
school  project,"  Koch  said. 

"TcM)  many  school  com- 
mittee members,  city  coun- 
cillors and  other  officials 
have  worked  too  hard  on 
these  issues  to  allow  the  lack 
of  leadership  and  communi- 
cation from  citv  hall  to  dam- 


something." 

Koch  said  he  talks  regu- 
larly about  the  new  Quincy 
High  School  project  and  the 
effects  it  will  have  on  local 
taxpayers.  Just  a  few  years 
ago,  the  project  was  expected 
to  cost  local  taxpayers  $8 
million  with  the  state  paying 
the  rest.  Koch  said. 

Today,  he  said,  that  num- 
ber is  S.'>4  million,  a  tlifter- 
ence  of  S46  million  that  \\\\\ 
be  paid  entirely  by  (.^umcy 
taxpayers.  During  the  same 
time  period,  the  city  lost  the 
promise  of  MO  percent  state 
rennbursement  for  Central 
Middle  School  because  it 
failed  to  file  an  application 
on  time,  Koch  said. 

"Now  we  don't  know 
how  much  the  state  is  going 
to  pay  lor  Central,  but  it's  not 
going  to  be  anything  close  to 
90  percent,"  Koch  said. 
"This  is  completely  unac- 
ceptable, and  a  clear  sign  of 
why  we  need  new  leadership 
at  city  hall."

Bethany  Church  Observes 
175th  Anniversary  Oct.  7 


By  JEAN  ANN  PHINNEY 

Bethany  Congregational 
Church,  United  Church  of 
Christ,  is  celebrating  its 
175th  anniversary  this  year. 

Gathered  in  1832, 
Bethany  has  had  three 
homes.  The  first  was  at  the 
comer  of  Hancock  Street  and 
Revere  Road.  The  second 
church  was  at  the  site  which 
became  the  Granite  Trust 
Company,  now  Bank  of 
America,  in  Quincy  Square. 

In  1927,  the  cornerstone 
of  the  present  church  was 
laid  at  the  corner  of 
Coddington  and  Spear 
Streets.  Bethany's  tall  tower 
with   the   gargoyles   is  a 


Quincy  landmark. 

The  celebration  will  be 
Sunday,  Oct.  7,  beginning 
with  a  special  worship  ser- 
vice at  10  a.m.  A  time  of  fel- 
lowship in  the  Allen  Parlor 
will  follow.  Sunday  dinner 
(by  reservation)  will  be 
served  in  the  Bohlken  Social 
Hall  at  noon. 

Following  dinner,  at  1:30 
p.m.  there  will  be  an  organ 
concert  in  the  sanctuary  by 
Peter  Krasinski.  a  lifelong 
Bethany  member  and  well- 
known  musician. 

During  the  day  there  will 
be  special  added  events  in- 
cluding the  burial  of  a  2007 
time  capsule  prepared  by  the 


youth  group  of  Bethany. 

An  obelisk  of  Quincy 
granite  will  be  dedicated  to 
the  past,  present  and  future 
of  Bethany.  The  eras  of  the 
three  churches  will  be  noted 
on  three  sides  of  the  obelisk. 
The  fourth  side  will  be  a  look 
to  the  future. 

Bethany  Church  invites 
anyone  who  has  pictures  or 
memorabilia  of  Bethany 
through  the  years  to  loan 
them  for  the  occasion. 

The  public  is  invited  to  all 
events  of  the  day  Those  in- 
terested in  attending  ttie  din- 
ner are  asked  to  call  Bctliany 
Church  at  617-479-7300  for 
details  and  rcscr\  ations.

One  woman  who'd  been

said  a  Drug  Court  referral

then  spoke  oi  her  hero,  her

"1  hope  someday  1  can 
make  an  impact  on  another 
addict."  said  one  w  oman  w  ho 
is  now  pursuing  her  college 
degree. 

Judge  Morianty  presented 


re-tested  time  after  time;  their  the  diplomas  and  congratu- 
lives  and  employment  had  lated  the  graduates  who  corn- 
been  scrutinized  and  re-  posed  the  largest  of  the  past 
viewed.  They'd  avoided  four  graduaung  classes  from 


Quin«.\  's  program   fhe  pro- 
gram began  in  2001 . 

.According  toQueene\ .  1 4 
graduates  w  ere  able  to  attend 
the  ceremon\  while  other 
graduates  were  w orking  and 
ci>uldn"t  get  time  o\\'.  Sev- 
eral of  the  21  completed  the 
pri>gram  earlier  in  the  \ear 
and  ha\e  moved. 

Most  ot  these  graduates 
ha\  e  been  in  and  out  of  coun 
man>  times  for  a  \ariet\  o[ 
offenses,  according  to 
Queenev  who  believes  80*^7 
to  85'<  o!  all  the  court's 
criminal  cases  can  be  traced 
to  drug  Ol  aIcohi>l  abuse. 

"It  (the  criminal  charge) 
might  sav  "Breaking  and 
Hntering"  or  "Larceny  bv 
Check."  The  charge  does  not 
hav  e  the  word,  drug  or  alco- 
ht)l.  in  It  but  it  IS."  said 
Queeney . 

The  graduates  have  had 
mug  shots  and  warrants  is- 
sued in  their  names  and 
they'd  been  arrested  by  po- 
lice officers  repi)rting  to  same 
police  chiefs  who  attended 
their  graduation. 

Keynote  speaker  of  the 
dav  was  Judge  Robert 
Ziemian  oi  South  Boston 
District  Court  Judge 
/lemian  founded  the  first 
Drug  Coun  in  .Massachusetts 
1 2  years  ago  after  observ  ing 
a  successful  program  in 
Florida 

During  his  sp^'eeh.  Judge 
Ziemian  acknow  ledged  that 
the  important  w  ork  with  sub- 
stance abusers  can  be  emo- 
tionally draining  for  tht)se 
working  on  the  front  lines. 
He  encouraged  court  person- 
nel to  keep  a  sense  of  humor. 
Queeney  who  has  w  orked 
at  Quincy  District  Court  for 
23  years  has  been  involved 


with  the  Drug  Court  since  its 
mceptuMi.  She  agreed  with 
Judge  Ziemian  that  court 
workers  can  gel  tapped  out 
from  the  ups  and  dt>w'ns  oi 
the  work. 

"This  is  one  oi  the  good 
days."'  said  Queeney  who  said 
reports  from  successful 
graduates  from  previous  ses- 
sions also  boost  their  morale, 
especial !v  after  a  participant 
has  slipped. 

.Massachusetts  Supreme 
Court  Chief  Justice  .Marga- 
ret .Marshall  sent  a  letter  of 
ccmgralulati(Mis  to  the  gradu- 
.iies.  praising  the  program. 
'We  all  lose  family  and 
Iriends  to  substance  abuse." 
.As  Judge  .Moriarity  pre- 
sented each  diploma,  she 
gave  a  thumbnail  sketch  of 
each  graduate  and  his/her 
history  in  the  program.  Some 
succeeded  on  their  first  try; 
some  slipped  and  had  to  re- 
turn to  jail  and  start  all  over 
again. 

"Sometimes,  you  don't 
get  it  the  first  time."  Judge 
Moriarity  said,  adding  that, 
for  those  who  slip,  "1  lock 
them  up.  1  lock  them  up;  1 
lock  them  up." 

"We  have  a  lot  of  people 
w ho  have  trouble  jollowing 
the  rules."  said  .Moriarity. 
■They've  never  had  to  fol- 
low the  rules.  My  goal  isn't 
to  kKk  them  up.  My  goal  is  to 
succeed  " 

"It's  lough;  It's  lair;  it's 
w  orth  It. "  said  one  graduate 
who  described  himself,  pre- 
viously, as  "'m  denial,  bitter, 
and  with  a  lot  oi  anger  in- 
side." This  man  had  already 
had  over  a  decade  oi  sobri- 
ety. 

At  the  reception.  Dr. 
Brown  said,  "If  it  weren't  for 


Drug  Court,  hall  ot  these 
people  would  be  dead  or  in 
prison." 

Brown,  kninv  n  as  Dr.  Bob. 
is  an  independent  specialist 
who  conducts  the  Relap.se 
Prevention  Programs  in 
Quincy.  South  Boston  and 
Cambridge  courts.  He  has 
been  in  the  field  for  34  years 
and  said  there  have  been 
many  changes,  particularly 
the  surge  in  drug  addiction. 

"Theyre  getting  younger. 
There  are  twice  as  many 
'.vomen  as  men.  This  is  a  dis 
ease,  a  tamily  disease,  and 
It's  an  epidemic  but  1  don't 
see  any  headlines.  There  are 
our  sons  and  daughters  and 
nobody's  paying  attention." 

According  to  a  recent  sur- 
vey by  a  federal  agency,  the 
Substance  Abuse  and  Men- 
ial Health  Services  Admin- 
istration, at  least  22  million 
Americans  suffer  from  alco- 
hol or  drug  abuse. 

Special  awards  at  the  cer- 
emony honored  the  members 
oj  the  Transportation  Depart- 
ment olThe  Norfolk  County 
House  of  Correcticm  and 
Quincy  Court  officers  for 
their  e.xtra  help  in  the 
program's  success.  Kevin 
Riley  accepted  on  behalf  of 
the  transportation  staff  and 
Peter  Cordeiro  on  behalf  of 
the  Quincy  court  officers. 

Also  participating  in  the 
graduation  ceremonv  were

Retirement  Board 
Begins  Siciliano 
Pension  Review 


(Cont'd  From  Pai^c  I ) 

"You  can'l  go  beyond 
that."  Collins  said,  adding 
that  "thcrcjust  isn't  detail  (in 
the  court  record)." 

in  addition,  Collins 
claimed  that  Siciliano  knew 
the  family  ol  the  victim  prior 
tt)  the  boy '  s  involvement  with 
the  city's  emergency  man- 
agement program  (CHRT). 

Board  members  and  at- 
torneys agreed  that  both  al- 
leged victims,  now  in  their 
20' s,  would  remain  anony- 
mous. The  claimed  molesta- 
tion incidents  occurred  in  the 
mid-|y9()'s.  Siciliano  was 
cleared  of  charges  in  con- 
nection with  the  second 
youth. 

Collins  also  challenged 
the  hearing  piocedures. 
charging  that  the  board  Tailed 
togiv'eadcc|uatenoticci>t  tlii.' 
hearing  date,  that  Siciliano"  s 


conviction  is  currently  being 
appealed  and  is  not  final,  and 
that  the  board  does  not  have 
a  full  transcript  of  the  trial 
testimony. 

The  initial  process  could 
take  as  long  as  six  months, 
according  to  Chairman 
Cjcorge  McCray  who  said 
that  the  Board  is  not  going  to 
rush  its  decision. 

McCray  noted  that  the 
previous  case  involving  pen- 
sion revocation  has  taken  five 
years  and  is  still  in  the  court 
system.  In  that  instance,  the 
b(»ard  re\ oked  the  pension  of 
Plumbmg  Inspector  Ralph 
Maher  who  was  convicted  of 
breaking  into  the  F\"rsonnell 
office  of  City  Hall. 

"This  IS  just  stci)  ('ii"."" 
McC^ray  said,  adding  that 
"due  process  will  be  ob- 
sep.ed.  We  don't  do  things 
quickly.  Wc  don't  do  things

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Saturday,  Aug.  4,  at  appro.ximately  2:20  a.m.. 
Officers  Mark  Smith,  .loe  Nahsted  and  Robert 
Sweetland  were  dispatched  to  Taffrail  Road  on  a  re- 
port of  a  breaking  and  enter- 
ing. While  onroulo.  the  t)f- 
ticors  learned  that  a  female 
woke  up  to  find  an  unknow  n 
man  with  a  flashlight  in  her 
bedroom.  When  the  victim 
turned  a  light  on.  the  suspect 
fled  the  apartment. 

.\s  OtTieei  Smith  ap- 
proached the  area,  he  spot- 
ted a  male  between  buildings 
w  In*  malched  the  ilescriptioii 

ol  the  suspect  and  was  withm  ,^()()  \ards  of  the  crime 
scene.  Olfkcr  Smith  stoppeti  the  suspect  and  noted  that 
the  suspect  w.is  dripping  with  sweat  and  appeared  ner- 
\iHis.  When  askeii  what  he  was  doing,  the  susjk'cI  said 
he  was  coming  from  his  cousin's  house  and  was  on  his 
w  a\  home  lo  do  dishes  lor  his  nn^ther. 

Officer  Sw  eetland  aiTi\  ed  and  the  Ofl'icors  informotl 
the  suspect  as  \o  w  h>  he  w  as  being  slopped  and  w  hy  he 
wds  considered  a  suspect,  then  asked  what  was  in  the 
suspect's  backpack.  He  said  it  was  a  laptop  ct)nipulor 
and  gave  permission  for  the  Officers  to  check  the  pack. 
The  officers  first  found  an  eight-inch  blade  -  kitchen 
knife. 

For  their  ow  n  safety,  they  immediately  searched  the 
suspect.  Officer  Sweetland  found  a  screwdriver  and  a 
flashlight  in  the  suspect's  pocket. 

During  this  time.  Officer  Nabstedt  was  interview- 
ing the  victim  and  confirmed  the  matching  descriptions 
and  that  the  suspect  had  a  flashlight.  Entry  was  gained 
through  an  unlocked  window  at  the  street  level.  She 
said  that  once  the  lights  were  turned  on,  the  suspect 
tied  through  the  same  w  indovv. 

-After  pro\iding  the  suspect  with  Miranda  Rights 
(right  to  remain  silent  ....),  the\  questioned  the  sus- 
pect and  his  answers  didn't  make  much  sense.  He  said 
that  he  was  coming  from  his  cousin's  house,  but  didn't 
know  w  hero  he  li\  es.  When  asked  w  h\  he  had  a  flash- 
light, screwdriver  and  a  large  knife,  the  suspect  began 
babbling. 

Officer  Smith  told  the  suspect  that  it  didn't  look  good 
for  him  and  that  detecti\es  were  on  their  wav  to  fineer- 
print  the  window  where  the  suspect  entered.  .At  that 
point,  the  suspect  stated,  "All  right,  it  was  me.  1  didn't 
hav  e  time  to  take  anything.  I  got  scared  when  the  lights 
got  turned  on." 

The  suspect,  a  16-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was 
charged  with  armed  burglary,  carrsing  a  dangerous 
v\oapon,  recei\ ing  stolen  property  and  possessing  bur- 
glarious tools.  The  laptop  computer  was  placed  into 
evidence  for  court  purposes,  however,  it  did  not  be- 
long to  the  victim  of  this  break  and  at  this  time,  it  is 
unknown  who  the  additional  victim  is. 
Nice  Work! 

In  this  case,  leaving  a  street  level  window  open  over- 
night created  an  opportunity  for  someone  who  was 
roaming  the  neighborhood  looking  to  break  into  an 
apartment.  This  doesn't  mean  that  you  have  lo  keep 
your  windows  shut  and  suffer  from  the  summer  heat. 
Simply  installing  screws  at  the  lop  of  the  window  to 
prevent  it  being  pushed  up  further  than  a  few  inches 
allow  s  for  airflow  w  iihoul  letting  anyone  enter 

If  you  have  an  air  conditioner  in  a  street  level  w  in- 
dow,  ii  should  be  attached  to  the  w  indow  frame  to  pre- 
vent a  criminal  fri>m  simplx  pushing  it  in  and  gaining 
access.  Remember,  if  the  air  conditioner  is  off  and  it  is 
hcM  outside,  there's  no  car  in  the  dnveway,  the  newspa- 
per and  the  mail  are  at  the  entrance,  this  could  be  a 
target  home.

over  $23.000-and  you  have 
your  house  back  Perhaps  it's

A  Friend  in  Need 

S,  A  friend  of  mine  has 
•  been  having  .some 
th  and  financial  prob- 
lems recently,  and  .so  I've 
been  helping  him  out  with 
a  few  things.  My  wife 
brings  over  dinner  a  cou- 
ple times  a  week,  and  we 
help  with  cleaning  and 
small  fix-it  items.  His 
hou.se  has  bigger  issues 
though,  including  a  big 
hole  in  the  bathroom  tile 
where  the  porcelain  soap 
holder  used  to  be  —  the 
iasulation  and  sheathing 
arc  visible,  so  I  don't  know 
where  the  underlayment 
went.  For  now,  I've  cov- 
ered the  hole  with  plastic 
sheeting  and  duct  tape. 
But  the  job  looks  bigger 
and  more  e.vpensive  than  I 
can  handle.  What  do  you 
think?  — Joe  T.,  via  e-mail 

A  .First,  knidos  to  you 
•  and  your  wife  for 
being  so  dedicated  to  your 
friend  and  making  his  life 
easier.  These  seemingly 
small  things  —  making  din- 
ner, fixing  a  few  things  here 
and  there  —  probably  take  a 
load  off  your  friend's  mind 


and   are   helping   him   get 
through  this  troubled  time. 

Some  home  repairs  do  take 
more  than  a  few  hours  to 
complete,  however,  and  the 
materials  cost  can  also  be 
great.  Fortunately,  many 
states  have  assistance  pro- 
grams, in  the  form  of  low- 
interest  loans  and  (less  fre- 
quently) grants,  to  help  low- 
income  homeowners  make 
needed  repairs. 

Make  a  list  of  the  bigger 
home  repair  projects  around 
your  friend's  home  and 
investigate  your  state  and 
local  governments'  home- 
owner assistance  programs. 
Tlien  discuss  the  available 
options  with  him.  If  he 
decides  to  have  the  bigger 
repairs  taken  care  of  using 
an  assistance  loan  or  grant, 
you  may  want  to  be  at  his 
side  while  he  negotiates  with 
repair  contractors  and  super- 
vises the  work  being  done.

How  To  Get  The  Perfect  Tank  Top  And  Bikini  Belly 


(NAP.S)  -  Three  simple 
exercise  moves couldquiekly 
h.ive  you  on  youi  way  to 
looking  and  feeling  grca'. 

That's  the  idc.i  behind 
filncss  guru  Minna  Fcssig's 
1 1  me  -e  f  f  i  c  i  e  n  t  sculpting 
program.  I'he  former  Ms. 
Fitness  I'.SA  and  (Mic-linie 
filncss  coi  respondent  (or 
CT-5.S'  ■•  Fhe Early  Show"says 
the  icgimen  tones  trouble 
spots  and  can  st.iit  producing 
early  resuits  m  as  little  as  10 
d.iy  s. 

I'hc  key  to  the  program's 
success''  It  doesn't  waste 
lime. 

Ihai  means  n  focuses  on 
movements  that  help  busy 
vvt>men  make  the  most  of 
their  workouts.  Specifically, 
efficient,  effective  routines 
that  share  a  common  goal  oi' 
increasing     energy     and 


improving  health  and  looks. 

"This  is  cutting-edge 
fitness,"  says  Lessig.  "The 
entire  program  will  not  only 
make  women  lcu)k  heilcr  but 
.li^o  feel  healthiei  stronger 
and  more  energetic." 

The  workout  is  broken 
down  into  easy  steps  in 
Lossig's  new  book  and  DV  D, 
titled  "Tank  Top  Arms, 
Bikini  Belly.  Boy  Shoris 
BiUtom"  (Rodalo.  Inc.). 
Here's  a  look  at  three  of  the 
most  widespread  problem 
spots  and  her  favorite 
exercises  for  dealing  with 
them. 

Tank  Top  Arms 

Lessig  recommends  the 
Side  Plank  with  Arm  Raise 
move  to  tighten  everything 
from  your  shoulders  to  your 
back.  Get  down  on  all  tours 
and  grasp  a  dumbbell  with 


your  left  hand.  Extend  your 
legs  straight  out  behind  vou. 
Then  rotate  yourbody  so  your 
left  side  iaces  t!ie ceiling.  Lift 
your  left  arm  straight  up  into 
the  air  .ukI  (nor  your  head, 
with  your  palm  facing 
foiward.  Return  to  the 
starting  position  and  repeat 
on  the  other  side. 

Bikini  Belly 

A  fusion  of  dance  and 
gymnastics,  the  Twist  and 
Drop  helps  tighten  yourcore. 
Stand  with  feet  slightly  more 
than  shoulder  width  apart. 
Bend  f!,irvvard  at  the  hips  and 
place  hands  flat  on  ihe  floor 
directly  beneath  your 
shoulders.  Raise  your  heels 
so  that  only  your  toes  are 
touching  the  floor.  Draw  your 
navel  toward  your  spine.  Use 
your  abdominal  muscles  to 
lift  your  right  foot  off  the 


floor  and  sweep  it  across  in 
front  of  your  left  foot.  Then 
twist  your  bodv  and  lc>wer 
y v)Ui  hips  hu',;'ru  'iie  llooi  so 
your  lett  hip  races  'h.e  ceiling 
and  youi  righ!  Inp  faces  the 
floor.  Alternate  sides. 
Boy  Short.s  Bottom 
The  iioggy  L)ouble-Leg 
Lilt  may  look  lunny,  but  it 
can  .seriously  itr.prove  your 
"rear  view. "Lie  on  your  belly 
on  the  floor  w  ith  legs  flat  and 
knees  bent  to  90  degrees,  hip 
width  apart.  Touch  your  heels 
together  and  turn  y  our  feet  so 
your  toes  poi.ni  out.  Cross 
your  forearms  in  f:  ont  of  you 
and  rest  your  forehead  on 
them.  Using  your  glutes,  lift 
your  thighs  as  high  as  you

The  Babe  Ruth

held  its  annual  'All-Star 
Sunday'  at  Adams  Field. 
Dennis  "Oil  Can"  Boyd, 
former  Boston  Red  Sox 
pitcher,  made  an  appearance 
at  the  game. 

Boyd,  who  pitched  in  the 
1986  World  Series  against 
the  New  York  Mets.  watched 
a  couple  of  innings  of 
baseball  and  then 
autographed  baseballs  and 
took  pictures  with  each  player 
participating  in  the  game.  He 
talked  to  the  all-stars  about 
the  need  to  study  hard  in 
school  and  he  talked  about 
his  time  growing  up  in 
Mississippi  during  the  1 96()s 
and  stressed  that  "with  quite 
a  bit  of  effort  and 
determination,    you    can 


achieve  almost  anything  you 
want." 

Boyd  also  talked  about  his 
current  baseball  interest,  the 
"Oil  Can  Boyd  Traveling 
Urban  All  Stars."  This  team 
travels  the  country  playing 
for  charity  and  consists  of 
former  professional  baseball 
players  including  former  Red 
Sox  Bill  Lee  and  former 
Montreal  Expo,  Marquis 
Grissom. 

The  game  between  the 
American  and  National 
League  all-stars  was  an 
offensive  slugfest  with  the 
National  League  squeaking 
out  a  12-11  victory. 

For  the  winners,  Nick 
Milone  had  two  hits  and 
earned  the  win,  pitching  the 
eighth  and  ninth  innings,  of 
the  nine-inning  affair.  Aaron 


Sampson  and  Mike  Litif  also 
had  two  hits  and  Jon  Barton, 
Sean  O'Callaghan  and  John 
Morton  also  had  hits. 

John  Clifford,  Robert 
Bennett  and  Nick  Dolan  all 
played  great  defense  for  the 
National  League. 

Colin  Hales"  three  singles 
paced  the  American  League. 
Conor  Bresnahan,  Jarod 
Shields  and  Rich  Ryan  each 
finished  the  game  with  two 
hits  apiece  and  Josh  Nealon, 
Pat  Gaskell  and  Matt  Head 
hit  safely.  Nick  Ryan  and 
Brcndon  Nealon  both 
shinned  in  the  field 
defensively.

from  the  Greek  word 
thymon,  meaning  "courage. "  li  was 
used  as  an  antiseptic  by  the  Sumerian

prepare  for  battle,  and  Scottish  Highlanders  drank  a 
tea  of  it  for  the  same  purpose.  During  the  Middle 
Ages,  It  was  embroidered  on  tunics  worn  by  knights.

We  all  make  many  promises 
during  our  lifetime.  These  prom- 
ises deal  with  all  things,  in  every 
pha.se  of  life.  Knov^ing  what  or 
whom  to  believe  can  and  does 
pose  problems  at  times. 
Careless  promises  should  never 
be  given  -  or  counted  upon.  A  promise  that  can  cause 
discomfort,  harm  or  injustice  to  yourself-  or  to  others 
-  should  never  be  made,  no  matter  how  much  prod- 
ding or  persuasion  is  involved. 

It  is  usually  very  ease  to  make  a  promise  .  .  . 
Expediency  or  change  of  mind  is  seldom  a  justified 
excuse  for  breaking  a  promise.  A  promise  involves 

honor,  duty  and  ethics The  best  promise  you  can 

make  -  is  a  promise  to  yourself. . .  Promise  yourself 
that  you  will  never  make  a  promise  to  anyone,  unless 
you  are  fully  prepared  and  able  to  keep  your  promise. 
In  addition  to  spiritual  benefit,  it  is  a  good  way  to 
gain  honor,  stature,  praise  and  prestige  among  your 
fellow  human  beings. . .

"Oh,  most  beautiful  flower  of  Heaven, 
Blessed  Mother  of  the  Son  of  God, 
Immaculate  Virgin,  assist  me  in  my 
necessity.  Oh.  Star  of  the  Sea,  help 
me  and  show  me.  herein  you  are  my 
Mother  Oh.  Holy  Mary,  Mother  of 
God,  Queen  of  Heaven  and  Earth.  I 
humbly  beseech  thee  from  the  bot- 
tom of  my  heart  to  succor  me  in  this 
necessity.  (Make  request).  There  are 
none  that  can  withstand  your  power. 
Oh.  show  me  herein  you  are  my 
mother.  Oh.  Mary,  conceived  without 
sm.  pray  for  us  who  have  recourse  to 
thee  (3  times).  Holy  Mary.  I  place  this 
cause  in  your  hands  (3  times).  Thank 
you  for  your  mercy  toward  me  and 
mine.  Amen.  This  prayer  must  be  said 
for  3  days,  after  that  the  request  will 
be  granted.  The  prayer  must  be  pub- 
lished. M.L.M.  8/23

The  head-shaving  events 
not  only  raise  funds  but  re- 
mind the  world  that  young-

their  hair  and  must  be  bald 


indefinitely. 

Eastwick  is  stationed  at

headquarters  with  Paul 
O'Grady  who  organized  the 
local  effort  of  The

The  yearl\  mail  sub-

I'helan  Ineil  iiaek,  eliare- 
in;j  that  the  hiiih  school 
project  was  delayed  because 
the  lornier  administration 
which  he  saul  inchidetl  Koch 
wanted  the  new  school  built 
on  "a  toxic  waste  dump  that 
was  worth  zero." 

"No  one  said  anything," 
said  I'helan  claiming  that  the 
dexeloper  owning  the  land 
wouki  have  made  a  million 
dollars,  practically  overnight, 
on  the  site. 

"I've  gotten  people  mad 
but  I  haven't  made  them 
rich,"  said  Phelan,  later. 

Koch  said  Phelun  is  re- 
hashing the  2001  mayoral 
race  and  should  stand  on  his 
own  record.  He  asked  why 
the  City  Council  had  to  take 
the  initiatives  on  such  issues 
as  a  moratorium  on  new 
building  projects  and  blight. 
He  repeatedly  claimed  the 
administration  lacks  plan- 
ning for  the  future.

mas  Aquinas  Hall  in  Houghs 
Neck  was  near  equally  di- 
vided between  the  two  can- 
didates. With  each  Jab  and 
statement,  half  the  crowd 
roared  their  approval  tor  their 
candidate  while  the  other  half 
remained  still. 

Moderator  Tom  Timcoc 
read  the  audience' s  questions 
which  ranged  from  taxes,  city 
unit)n  contracts,  policing, 
development,  the  concourse 
and  school  issues  to  social 
issues  like  drugs,  gay  mar- 
riage, and  homelessness.  The 
debate  was  sponsored  by  the 
Houghs  Neck  Community 
Council. 

TAXES 

Phelan  said  real  estate 


taxes  this  year  have  increased 
less  than  every  single  city  in 
the  state. 

Neither  candidate  would 
support  an  ovenide  which 
wouldn't  be  necessary  now, 
according  to  Phelan  who 
pointed  out  that  the  city  has 
an  excess  tax  capacity  of  over 
$8  million  in  contrast  to  the 
minus  funds  available  when 
he  took  office  and  claimed 
year-old  unpaid  bills  were 
left  on  his  desk. 

The  city  is  financially 
sound.  Phelan  said,  "unlike 
we  were  five  years  ago  when 
1  took  office."  Phelan  said 
there  are  "no  more  inside

ing  like  "it's  going  out  of 
style"  and  blamed  Phelan  for 
a  209{  tax  increase  in  2004. 
He,  also,  cited  the  $30  mil- 
lion revitalization  bond  and 
the  $31  million  energy  con- 
tract touted  by  the  adminis- 
tration. 

Koch  labeled  the  spend- 
ing "backloading"  and 
warned  that  the  bills  will 
come  due,  as  taxes,  on  the 
"backs  of  a  future  genera- 
tion." 

THE  CONCOURSE 

Both  candidates  support 
the  concourse  which,  when 
completed,  will  cross  the  city 
from  Bergen  Parkway  to 
Southern  Artery.  Phelan 
kicked  off  Phase  One  of  the 
project  in  June. 

Koch  would  reroute  the 
road  to  avoid  The  Quincy 
Fair  building  which  he  said 
would  save  the  city  consid- 
erable money.  At  the  same 
time,  Koch  would  take  the 
Quincy  Legion  Post  on  Re- 
vere Road  as  members  have 
requested. 

Phelan's  administration 
didn't  communicate  prop- 


erly, according  to  Koch  who 
said  that  area  business  own- 
ers "didn't  seem  to  be  in  the 
know." 

Phelan  said  the  Concourse 
had  been  30  years  on  the 
drawing  board  until  his  ad- 
ministration took  control .  He 
said  Koch's  proposal  would 
reroute  the  project  and  make 
the  roadway  less  safe. 
SCHOOL  BUILDINGS 

One  question  asked  why 
special  education  classes  are 
being  held  in  closets  due  to  a 
lack  of  space  in  the  city's 
schools. 

Phelan  said  part  of  the 
cause  of  school  crowding  is  a 
major  effort  to  reduce  class 
sizes  which  means  using 
more  space  and,  also,  the 
city's  full  day  kindergarten 
program  which  he  promoted. 
He  noted  that  the  city  owns 
the  former  Myles  Standish 
School  building  at  Squantum 
and  that  space  will  open  up 
when  the  high  school  is  com- 
pleted. 

"We  seem  to  fail  at  long- 
range  planning,"  said  Koch 
who  said  the  city  moved 


Houghs  Neck  for  the  first  debate 

(jKimy  Sun  Fhotos/lMiira  Griffin 

ahead  with  major  projects 
without  proper  planning. 
CITY  UNION 
CONTRACTS 

Koch  charged  that  the 
city's  teachers  are  returning 
to  school  with  low  morale 
after  a  bruising  contract  battle 
last  spring  during  which  he 
said  that  Phelan  chose  to 
"viUfy  teachers."  Even  when 
there  are  differences,  Koch 
said  that  it's  important  to 
"treat  people  with  respect." 

In  contrast,  Koch  said  that 
Phelan  gave  police  superior 
officers  "got  one  heck  of  a 
deal"  in  their  contract  while 
firefighters  are  still  waiting 
for  a  contract. 

Phelan  charged  that  Koch 
skirted  the  issue  of  the 
teacher's  insurance  co-pay, 
and  claimed  that  Koch  was 
so  generous  in  his  contract 
negotiations  that  superior 
officers  said  it  was  "...like 
taking  candy  from  a  baby." 

Koch  countered  that  the 
contract  in  question  included 
zero  pay  increases.

City  First  To  Take  Advantage 
Of  New  Energy  Savings  Law 

Major  Improvements 
Cited  As  Schools  Open 


Students,  teachers  and 
parents  will  notice  signifi- 
cant improvements  in  the 
Quincy  public  schools  when 
they  open  next  week,  re- 
ported Mayor  William 
Phelan,  School  Supt.  Dr.  Ri- 
chard DeCristofaro,  and 
Buildings  Director  Mike 
Ryan. 

Quincy  is  the  first  city  in 
Massachusetts,  they  noted,  to 
take  advantage  of  the  State's 
new  Energy  Savings  Law 
and  the  city  entered  into  an 
Energy  Performance  Con- 
tract with  Honeywell.  Inc. 
for  the  upgrades.  Honeywell, 
Inc.  guarantees  the  ta.xpayers 
of  Quincy  savings  in  all  fu- 
ture electric  and  water  bills. 

As  a  result,  there  will  be 
new  and  improved  lighting 
in  classrooms,  new  roofs, 
low-flush  toilets  and  plumb- 
ing fixtures  that  conserve 
water,  and  new  heating  and 
ventilation  systems  that  are 
more  efficient  than  the  older 
systems,  they  said. 

"We  have  made  substan- 
tial improvements  in  all  of 
our  school  buildings  without 
risk  to  our  taxpayers,"  said 
Phelan.  "Better  lighting,  bet- 
ter heating  systems,  new 
roofs,  and  better  ventilation 
result  in  a  better  learning  en- 
vironment lor  our  students. 
We  are  proud  to  he  the  first 
city  in  Massachusetts  to  take 
ad\antagc  ol  the  State's  new 
r.nerey  Savings  jau.  Ihc 
sa\  iiiL's  in  (iiirclcclncit\  bills 
will  be  used  iu  pa\  loi  ihe 
in\estmenl  that  \vc  ha\e 
matlo  in  our  buikiiiiiis  and  ni 
our  lutuic.  Honeywell  is 
guaranteeiiiij  the  saxinti-  to 
the  city  and  llie\  will  Iia\c 
to  cut  us  a  check  if  the\  di<n"t 
reach  the  performance  stan- 
dards. It  is  one  ol  the  best 
programs  this  city  has  e\er 
undertaken." 

Ryan  said  he  was  pleased 
with  the  work  being  done  by 
Honeywell.  Ryan  pointed 
out  that  Honeywell  uses  all 
Union  labor,  ensuring  that 
costs  are  ctmtrolled  and 
deadlines  are  met. 

"We  have  experienced 
more  improvements  in  our

school  buildings  in  the  last 
three  months  than  most 
school  systems  see  in  twenty 
years."  said  Ryan.  "The  im- 
pacts will  be  significant.  We 
now  have  better  environ- 
ments inside  the  schools  and 
substantial  savings  to  tax- 
payers. Many  of  these  im- 
provements would  have  had 
to  be  done  in  the  coming 
years  and  the  taxpayers 
would  have  been  on  the  hook 
for  new  roofs,  lights,  and 
other  improvements.  By 
Mayor  Phelan  taking  advan- 
tage of  the  new  State  law,  we 
can  invest  in  our  buildings 
and  use  future  energy  sav- 
ings to  foot  the  bill." 

The  following  is  an  in- 
ventory of  the  school  im- 
provements: 

Lighting  Upgrades:  All 
schools-4,200  new  lighting 
fixtures  citywide  thus  far. 

Water  Conservation  Ef- 
forts: All  schools-replaced 
600  plumbing  fixtures  thus 
far. 

New  Roofs:  Atherton 
Hough  Elementary  School. 
Central  Middle  School.  Snug 


Harbor  Elementary  School. 
Berna/.anni  Elementary 
School,  Stjuantum  Elemen- 
tary School. 

Heating/Boiler  Replace- 
ment: Atlantic  Middle 
School,  Montclair  Elemen- 
tary School. 

School  personnel  are  cur- 
rently completing  training  on 
new  systems  to  ensure  long- 
term  success  of  the  systems. 

"The  difference  in  the 
classrooms  is  immediately 
noticeable,"  said  North 
Quincy  High  School  Princi- 
pal Earl  Met/ler.  "In  addi- 
tion, the  upgrades  that  have 
been  made  in  the  gynmasium 
are  dramatic.  This  has  been 
a  substantial  improvement  in 
the  quality  of  our  school." 

"This  program  is  good  for 
the  environment  and  good 
for  our  taxpayers  and  stu- 
dents." said  Phelan.  "Seldom 
will  you  see  a  program  with 
so  many  benefits  and  so  little 
costs.  1  am  proud  to  say  that 
Quincy  is  the  first  commu- 
nity to  implement  such  a 
great  program."

THE  HISTORY  CHAML 


•  On  Aug.  27,  1859,  HtJwin 
Drake  strikes  oil  at  69  feet  near 
Titusville,  Pa.  —  the  world's 
first  succes-sful  oil  well.  This 
source  of  crude  oil,  or  petn)le- 
um,  opened  up  a  new,  inex- 
peasive  s(xm;e  of  power  and 
quickly  replaced  whale  oil  in 
lamps. 

•  On  Aug.  31,  1888,  the 

first  victim  of  London  senal 
killer  "Jack  the  Ripper"  is 
found  murdered  and  muti 
lated  in  Whitechapel's 
Buck's  Row.  Ilie  police, 
who  lacked  niiKlem  forensic 
techniques  such  as  fingcr- 
pnnting  and  blcHKl  typing, 
were  at  a  complete  loss  for 
suspects,  in  1K92,  the  Jack 
the  Ripper  file  was  closed. 

•  On  Aug.  29,  191 1,  Ishi, 
described  as  the  last  surviv- 
ing Stone  Age  Indian  in  the 
contiguous  U.S.,  is  discov- 
ered lost  and  starving  in 
Oroville,  Calif.  He  was  unfa- 
miliar with  white  ways  and 
spoke  no  Enghsh.  With  the 
help  of  a  Berkeley  anthro- 
pologist named  Thomas 
Waterman,  a  crude  language 
was  created  that  allowed 
communicarion.  For  five 
years,  Ishi  lived  at  the  Berke- 
ley Museum,  where  he 
learned  to  understand  and 
survive  in  the  white  world. 
He  died  on  March  25,  1916. 
of  tuberculosis  at  an  estimat- 


ed age  of  .*)6. 

•  On  Sept.  2,  1931,  Bing 
Crosby's  first  radio  show, 
"l.*)  Minutes  With  Bing 
Crosby,"  debuts  on  CBS. 
Crosby  was  bom  Harry  Lil- 
lis  Crosby  in  Tacoma  in 
190.1.  As  a  child,  his  devo- 
tion to  a  cartoon  character 
named  Bing  won  him  his 
lifelong  nickname. 

•  On  Aug.  30,  1963,  a  24- 

hour-a-day  "hot  line"  sys- 
tem between  Moscow  and 
Washington,  D.C.,  goes  into 
cfTcxt.  The  hot  line  was  nev- 
er really  neces.sary  to  pre- 
vent war  between  the  Soviet 
Union  and  the  I  inited  States, 
and  its  significance  at  the 
time  was  largely  symbolic. 

•  On  Aug.  28, 1972,  toward 
the  end  of  the  Vietnam  War, 
the  U.S.  Air  Force  gets  its 
first  ace  since  the  Korean 
War  when  Capt.  Richard  S. 
Ritchie  shoots  down  his  fifth 
MiG  near  Hanoi. 

•  On  Sept.  1,  1985,  seven- 
ty-three years  after  it  sunk  to 
the  North  Atlantic  ocean 
floor,  a  joint  U.S.-FreiKh 
expedition  locates  the  wreck 
of  the  RMS  Titanic  lying  at  a 
depth  of  13,000  feet  about 
4(X)  miles  east  of  Newfound- 
land.

Yes,  There  Was  A  Peanut  Store 


Yes,  there  was  a  pcaniil  stoic  in  downtown  Quincy. 
Several  readers  have  called  to  say  they  remember  it 
back  in  the  early  i94()s. 

They  were  responding  to  an  item  here  last  week  in 
which  Walter  Whidden  ol  lilni  Street  recalled  such  a 
store  with  peanuts  in  the  shell  lining  the  walls. 

He  couldn't  find  anyone  else  who  remembered  it  and 
wondered  "Did  I  dream  this?" 
Nt),  you  didn't,  Walter. 

Dick  Laracy.  retired  Quincy  police  liquor  inspector 
and  Sheila  rordolTot  Houghs  Neck  were  among  those 
who  remember  it  being  on  the  east  side  ot  Hancock 
Street  in  the  general  vicinity  across  from  the  Lincoln 
store. 

The  name  of  the  store  was  Planters  Peanuts.  They 
remember  the  peanuts  along  the  walls.  And  a  Mr. 
Peanut  figure,  a  giant  peanut  with  a  top  hat. 

Sheila  was  4  or  5  at  the  time  and  her  grandmother 
took  her  to  the  store  on  Saturdays.  Laracy  was  in  the 
fourth  or  fifth  grade. 

Ward  I  Councillor  Leo  Kelly  also  remembers  the 
store  but  thinks  it  was  closer  to  Granite  Street  where  the 
Quincy  Business  Association  is  located  at  1416  Hancock 
Street.  Kelly  also  remembers  Harold  Stewart  of  Houghs 
Neck  as  the  peanut  man  dressed  in  a  large  peanut  shell 
and  top  hat 

Robert  Halfyard  of  North  Quincy,  retired  U.S. 
Administrative  Law  judge,  thinks  it  was  on  the  west 
side  of  Hancock  Street  ( 1 39 1 )  near  where  the  Talbot's 
store  was  located. 

This  could  have  been  a  later  store  called  Kemp's  that 
sold  peanuts  and  a  variety  of  nuts. 

He  remembers  it  having  a  machine  that  made  fresh 
peanut  butler  while  you  waited. 
Oh,  the  good  old  days! 

□ 
LOOKS  LIKE  THERE  might  be  another  contender 
for  the  City  Council  presidency. 
Ward  I's  Leo  Kelly  says:  "I'm 
•^  *^     >'         considering  it.  I  think  I  have  the 
hC-    ^|,  experience." 

^^#te  \^^^        Kelly,  now  running  unopposed  for 
^^'*    ^^^    his  ninth  term,  was  president  of  the 
KELLY  council  in  1980-81. 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin  Coughlin, 
Ward  4's  Jay  Davis  and  Councillor  at-Large  Mike 
McFarland  were  reported  here  last  week  as  "interested" 
in  taking  the  gavel  from  Ward  5's  Doug  Gutro  who 
cannot  succeed  himself  after  his  two  one-year  terms.

DOWNTOWN  QUINCY  WILL  soon  lose  one  of  its 
familiar  and  popular  figures. 

Richie  Pearson,  who  has  been 
delivering  the  mail  in  the  downtown 
area  for  the  past  17  years,  is  retiring 
Sept.  8. 

Overall,  he  has  been  with  the  U.S. 
Postal  Service  34  years,  28  in  Quincy. 
"I'm  going  to  miss  it  ail-especially 
the  people,"  he  says.  "When  I  got  the  downtown  route. 


GALVIN 


it  was  like  going  to  heaven." 

Richie,  now  a  Braintree  resident,  is  planning  on 
settling  in  Winter  Springs.  Fla. 

"I've  got  to  remember  to  give  the  keys  back."  he 
muses. 

He  was  trusted  with  about  two  dozen  keys  to  offices 
on  his  route  so  he  could  deliver  to  them  on  Saturdays 
when  they  are  closed. 

□ 
TOM  GALVIN  reached  a  proud  milestone  Saturday: 
the  1000"'  consecutive  day  that  he  has  walked  three 
miles. 

That's  like  walking  across  the  country.  The  la.st  time 
he  mis.sed  a  day  was  Thanksgiving, 
2004. 

He  has  been  walking  almost  daily 

for  1 2  years  but  this  is  the  first  time  he 

has  put  1 ,000  days  in  a  row  together. 

And,  he's  now  off  to  make  it  2,000. 

Tom's  popular  "Scenes  From 

Yesterdays."  appears  weekly  in  The 

Sun.  And,  he's  known  for  his  tours  of  Mount  Wollaston 

Cemetery.  (Next  one:  Sept.  15) 

How  about  a  walk-off  between  Tom  and  Frank 
McCauley? 

□ 
THE  MOVIE  "STIFFS"  starring  Danny  Aiello  will 
soon  becoming  to  a  theater  near  you. 

And  if  you  keep  an  eye  out,  youTl  catch  a  couple  of 
North  Quincy  familiar  figures  making  their  movie 
debuts:  Sal  Giarratani  and  Paul  Picariello. 

Giarratani,  of  course,  is  a  well- 
known  name.  You'  ve  seen  it  at  the  end 
of  thousands  of  letters  to  the  editor 
here  and  in  other  newspapers. 
Picariello  is  with  Accent  Upholstery 
in  North  Quincy. 

The  movie,  made  by  filmmakers  GIARRATANI 
Frank  and  Joseph  Ciata  of  Lynn,  was 
shot  in  the  Greater  Boston  area. 

It's  now  showing  at  the  Montreal  Film  Festival 
before  heading  for  the  states. 

Sal  is  seen  at  an  Everett  funeral  home,  playing  a  low- 
level  hood  attending  a  wake. 

Paul  is  in  a  wedding  scene  at  Lombardo'  s  in  Randolph. 
No,  they  don't  expect  to  be  invited  to  the  Academy 
Awards  Night  festivities. 

How  Vegetarian  Diet 
Fights  Cancer  Sept.  16 


PEARSON 


The  benefit  of  a  vegetar- 
ian diet  in  the  fight  against 
cancer  will  be  explored  in  a 
program  Sunday,  Sept.  16,  at 
2  p.m.  at  the  Thomas  Crane

Cancer  researchers  have 
discovered  that  people  who 
avoid  meat  are  much  less 
likely  to  develop  the  disease 
and  some  vegetarian  sources 
of  protein  are  loaded  with 
cancer-fighting  nutrients.

Scenes  From  Yesterday

!)W«&W*^;<^-■^ 


THIS  IS  A  1927  postcard  view  of  Hancock  Street  in 
Norfolli  Downs  looking  north  from  the  end  of  Hay  ward 
Street  at  the  Wheelhouse  Diner.  The  newly  built  Re- 
gent Theater  had  800  seats  and  remained  open  for  over 
50  years.  For  many  years,  the  owners  of  the  Regent  also 
owned  the  Wollaston  Theater  on  Beale  Street.  The  old 
theater  building  has  since  been  replaced  with  another 
building  now  home  to  a  branch  of  the  Bank  of  America 
with  offices  upstairs.  The  Regent  building  also  had  of- 
fices upstairs  that  were  home  to  two  start-up  compa- 
nies in  the  1950s:  Instron  Engineering,  now  a  world- 
wide company  located  in  Norwood;  and  Industrial 


Cafeteria's  and  Menu-Mat,  both  owned  by  Bill 
Rosenberg  who  also  started  his  Dunkin  Donuts  com- 
pany here.  That  is  now  located  in  Canton.  The  next 
building  to  the  left  was  owned  by  the  Boston  Gear 
Works  for  many  years,  but  is  now  a  parking  lot  for  the 
bank.  A  few  years  before  this  picture  was  taken,  Charlie 
Rizzo  opened  his  barbershop  on  the  first  floor  of  the 
triple-decker  in  the  distance.  He  was  in  business  there 
for  50  years.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

Opposes  License  Board  Meeting  Changes 


On  the  issue  of  the  time 
change  for  the  Licensing 
Board-who  does  this  admin- 
istration think  they  are  kid- 
ding? 

How  are  citizens  going  to 
have  more  input  and  more 


opportunities  on  the  issues  of 
the  day,  when  they  cut  the 
meeting  from  three  or  four 
times  a  month  to  two  times, 
and  supporters  or  abutters 
will  be  limited  to  speaking 
time? 


This  is  another  ploy  to 
have  less  to  do  with  the  citi- 
zens of  this  city.  This  admin- 
istration is  the  worst  I've 
seen  in  distancing  itself  from 
the  citizens  of  the  city  in  all 
my  72  years  of  living  here. 


Have  they  thought  about 
parking  at  four  in  the  after- 
noon when  traffic  is  heavy'.' 
Possibly  they  have.

Questions  Willard  Street  Repaying 


I  and  a  number  of  my 
neighbors  on  Willard  Street 
in  West  Quincy  are  asking 
Mr.  Davis;  just  where  on 
Willard  Street  did  you  re- 
pave? 


We  (the  neighbors) 
walked  Willard  Street,  from 
Shea  Rink  to  the  Furnace 
Brook  Rotary,  and  did  not 
find  a  newly  paved  road.  I 
went  to  Home  Depot,  and 


still  no  repaved  road. 

Mr.  Davis  took  credit  for 
the  speed  trailer  that  was 
parked  in  front  of  my  house 
three  years  ago.  Wrong.  1 
asked  Councillor  at-Laree 


Joe  Finn  for  help  with  speed-

was  Mr.  Finn  that  had  the

If  you're  a  recent  college 
graduate,  you  might  be  like 
many  others  in  your  position: 
spending  money  you  don't 
have,  not  saving  anything  lor 
the  future,  and  in  general  dig- 
ging yourself  a  great  big  hole 
of  debt. 

Hven  if  you  didn't  gradu- 
ate with  a  degree  in  Eco- 
nomics or  Business  Admin- 
istration, it's  not  too  late  to 
establish  some  good  finan- 
cial habits  for  your  own  ben- 
efit. 

If  you're  a  recovering  col- 
lege graduate  with  a  job,  read 
on: 
What  comes  after  college? 

If  you  said  retirement, 
you'd  be  right.  Well,  nt)t  ex- 
actly. You've  still  got  a  few 
decades  to  go.  This  is.  how- 
ever, the  porlect  tmie  to  be- 
gm  sa\  ing  for  retirement.  If 
you  begin  saving  in  your 
ivv  enties,  e\  en  contributing  a 
siiuill  amount  oxer  a  long 
period  o^  time,  you  will  ac- 
cumulate a  significant 
amount  o^  money  by  the  time 
you  consider  retirement.  The 
nu>ney  you  invest  can  earn 
compound  interest — mean- 
ing you  get  interest  not  only 
on  your  money,  but  on  your 
interest.  vSounds  pretty  easy, 
right?  The  longer  you  wait  to 
begin,  however,  the  greater 
the  percentage  of  your  earn- 
ings you'll  have  to  contrib- 
ute to  give  yourself  a  decent 
retirement. 

^'tnir  employer  may  hav  e 
a  4()l(k)  plan  in  which  you 
can  participate.  With  a 
40 1 (k)  plan,  your  empk>yer 
might  also  match  a  portion 
o'i  the  money  you  deposit 
into  a  retirement  lund.  Some 
companies  will  automati- 
cally enroll  you  in  a  401  (k). 
\ou  might  want  ti^  let  them; 
contributions  come  from 
your  preta.x  salary,  so  you 
probably  won't  luMice  them. 
More  importantly,  this  is  the 
Iirst  step  in  starting  your  re- 
tirement savings. 

Debt:  Credit  and 
College  Loans 
The  money  you  accepted 
to  fund  your  education  w  as, 
sadly,  not  a  gift  from  the 
bank  or  government.  Unless 
you  received  a  full  scholar- 
ship, you  have  to  pay  it 
back — potentially  tens  of 
thousands  of  dollars.  So  how 
can  you  handle  this? 

Consolidate  your  loans. 
When  you  (or  your  parent) 
took  out  your  loans,  you 
made  an  agreement  to  pay 
them  back  by  a  certain  year. 


with  interest.  This  interest 
rate  is  not  locked,  so  it  will 
continue  to  increase  each 
year.  Consolidating  your 
loans  allows  you  to  extend 
the  amount  of  time  you  are 
able  to  pay  them  back.  It  also 
allows  you  to  lock  in  an  in- 
terest rate  to  avoid  paying  for 
yearly  rate  increases.  Con- 
solidation combines  your 
loans  into  one  larger  loan  that 
you  pay  off  monthly.  This 
may  help  you  keep  track  of 
payments  and  pay  them  on 
time. 

Be  selective  about  which 
debt  you  pay  off  first.  Pay 
off  high-rate  debt  first.  You 
can  refinance  your  debt  by 
transferring  it  from  a  high- 
rate  to  a  lower-rate  loan  in 
order  \o  save  on  interest  ac- 
cruing on  the  unpaid  princi- 
pal (the  main  portion  of  your 
loans). 

Pay  bills  on  time  Youv  e 
probably  been  hearing  this 
for  years,  but  it  really  can't 
be  said  encmgh.  A  Citi 
Credit-Hd®/Harris  Interac- 
tive F^inancial  Literacy  Sur- 
vey show  s  that  a  third  of  stu- 
dents surveyed  have  missed 
or  been  late  on  a  credit  card 
payment  and  a  quarter  have 
bounced  a  check.  Not  only 
does  this  earn  you  additional 
fees  and  higher  interest,  but 
it  also  shows  up  on  your 
credit  report,  which  can  af- 
fect your  ability  to  get  a  loan 
in  the  future. 

Kstablishing  a 
health  care  plan 
After  graduation,  you'll 
probably  lace  a  new,  foreign, 
financial  obligation:  paying 
for  health  insurance.  Most 
parental  health  insurance 
plans  end  on  your  23rd  birth- 
day. Your  school  policy  ter- 
minated the  day  you  gradu- 
ated. This  leaves  you  com- 
pletely uninsured,  which  can 
be  a  real  problem  if  you  find 
yourself  at  the  doctor's  of- 
fice. 

If  you're  employed,  your 
Job  likely  offers  a  health  care 
plan,  and  it's  almost  always 
cheaper  than  buying  your 
own  policy.  If  you  just  gradu- 
ated from  college,  it  may  be 
possible  to  extend  your  cov- 
erage from  your  parents'  plan 
for  a  few  years.  If  neither  of 
these  options  applies  to  you, 
some  organizations,  such  as 
a  trade  association,  may  al- 
low you  to  purchase  insur- 
ance at  a  group  rate.  Since 
insurance  rates  vary  from 
state  to  state,  seek  out  major 


insurers  in  the  area  for  a  rate 
quote.  Visit 

www.quotesmith.com  and

Identify  your  goals 
Identifying  the  goals  that 
are  important  to  you  will 
help  you  plan  how  and  when 
you  will  be  able  to  afford 
certain  things  and  how  much 
you  will  have  to  save.  This 
might  be  hard  to  understand, 
but  purchasing  a  new  car  at 
the  drop  of  a  hat  is  not  a  good 
way  to  identify  goals.  Nei- 
ther is  signing  a  lease  on  an 
extravagant  apartment.  You 
have  to  consider  the  reper- 
cussions. Goals  you  may 
want  to  save  for  are  things 
such  as  buying  furniture,  a 
car.  or  eventually  owning  a 
home. 

De\  elop  good 
.spending  habits 
Once  you  have  created 
clear  goals  to  work  toward, 
create  a  budget.  This  can 
have  a  tremendous  impact  on 
your  finances.  Keep  track  of 
your  spending — include  all 
money  spent  on  entertain- 
ment, food,  clothing,  and 
those  purchases  that  fall 
through  the  cracks,  like  the 
occasional  six-pack  or  post- 
gym  smoothie.  You  may  find 
the  money  you're  spending 
on  extraneous  items  is 
amounting  to  a  bigger  chunk 
of  your  paycheck  than  you'd 
like.  Budget  accordingly. 
You  may  have  to  forego  din- 
ners out  or  that  Xbox  you've 
had  your  eye  on.  There's 
nothing  wrong  with  spend- 
ing money  on  fun,  but  don't 
let  it  jeopardize  your  finan- 
cial future. 

This  is  an  exciting  point 
in  your  life — you  probably 
have  more  freedom  and  op- 
portunities for  growth  than 
you've  ever  had  before,  but 
it  also  exposes  you  to  a 
whole  new  level  of  respon- 
sibility. Be  smart  about  your 
present,  and  your  future  may 
look  a  whole  lot  brighter.

Firefighters,  Police  Shave 
Heads  For  Childhood  Cancer 


Phelan  Hosting 
Beach  Bash  Friday 

M.ivor  William  Plichin      liostcd  a  niimbLM-  of  beach 


{Cont'd  Fnm  Pai<c  I ) 

Marines  in  Desert  Storm  with 
Rideout.  Shapiro  said  that 
O'Grady,  "...pulled  the 
whole  thing  together." 

*'A  lot  of  guys  on  our  job 
are  affected  by  cancer  in  one 
way  or  another,  "said 
O'Grady  and  his  fellow 
firefighters  on  hand  that  day 
agreed. 

"I  have  a  nephew  who  had 
cancer.  He  was  12.  It's  in 
remission  now,"  said 
Firefighter  Michael  Flynn  of 
Engine  8. 

"Cancer  touches 

everybody's  family  in  one 
way  or  another.  It's  the  least 
I  could  do,"  said  Steve  Sweet, 
Ladder  2,  Wollaston,  who 
joked,  "I  needed  a  haircut 
anyway." 

Police  officers  Ralph 
Willard  and  Jason  Maclsaac, 
also,  hit  the  barber's  chair  as 
did  firefighters  Paul  Cohane, 
Michael  Casey  and  Bob 
Laracy  and  Christopher  Gra- 
ham who  works  at  WaterClub 
on  the  Boardwalk. 

The  volunteer  barber  for 
the  event  was  Denyce  Bobbitt 
who  works  at  Harmony  Cuts, 
Quincy. 

WaterClub  on  the  Board- 
walk donated  their  facilities, 
the  disc  jockey,  and  refresh- 
ments to  the  St.  Baldrick 
Foundation  for  the  day's 
event.  Will     O'Connell  is 


manager. 

.At  the  day's  end.  it  didn't 
how  much  one  raised  as  much 
as  how  much  one's  heart  w  as 
in  it.  Seven-year-i>ld  Dillon 
Barkas  went  the  whole  mile. 

On  his  own,  Dillon,  son 
of  Quincy  Police  Officer 
Karyn  Barkas,  raised  $152. 
He'll  start  school  next  week 
without  a  hair  on  his  head. 

The  event  was  a  great 
homecoming  for  Shapiro 
who  lived  at  Marina  Bay  for 
10  years.  Her  brother  Stephen 
Shapiro  served  as  master  of 
ceremonies  while  her  parents, 
Barbara  and  Allan  Shapiro 
of  Brockton  and  step-daugh- 
ter Lindsay  Rideout  cheered 
her  on. 

"I  bought  hats,"  Shapiro 
said  before  shedding  her 
beautifully  styled  thick  hair. 
"I  want  to  be  able  to  show 
everybody  how  important 
this  is." 

Shapiro  and  her  husband 
chose  St.  Baldrick' s  Foun- 
dation for  their  year  volun- 
teer service  after  researching 
dozens  of  charitable  groups.. 
Their  goal  for  Quincy  was 
$10,000  and  they  easily 
passed  that  mark  last  week. 

The  St.  Baldrick' s  Foun- 
dation, based  in  Pasadena, 
CA,  was  founded  on  St. 
Patrick's  Day  in  2000  and 
has  a  lively  lephrachun  sym- 
bol as  the  founders  hoped  to 


will  host  an  "Fnd  of  Summer 
Beach  liash"  at  the  city's 
new  Ba\  sw  ater  Boatyard  fa- 
cility in  Houghs  Neck. 

The  e\ent  will  lealure  a 
disc  jockey,  games  and  a  bar- 
becue, rhe  bash  will  take 
place  from  5  p.m.  to  8  p.m. 
hriday. 

Phelan  will  be  joined  by 
Ward  Councillor  Leo  Kelly 
and  the  Beaches  and  Coastal 
Commission  in  hosting  the 
event.  The  Commission  has 


parties  in  the  past  to  encour- 
age people  to  enjoy  Quincy 's 
beaches  and  ct)astline. 

"This  is  going  to  be  a  fun 
way  to  celebrate  the  end  of  a 
great  summer,"  said  Phelan. 
"1  encourage  people  to  come 
ck>wn  and  enjoy  this  beauti- 
ful waterfront  park  and  use 
the  new  playground,  beach, 
and  boat  facility.  This  is  go- 
ing to  be  a  wonderful  com- 
munity celebration."

"i  talked  a  lot  about  do-

"Il  was  a  *!ieat  lirst

ilillerence  in  leadership 
styles  that  I  think  will  only 
become  more  clear  as  the

Koch  said  that  while  he 
locused  on  the  issues.  Mayor

Koch  outlined  a  "call  to

tice  lo  address  the  pioblem, 
while  he  said  his  opponent 
essentially  said  that  the  sta- 
tus quo  is  working  line. 

'"1  his  is  what  we've  been

he  said.  "Ihe  statistics  and

from  their  rising  bills." 


Puleo  Takes  Issues 
To  New  Campaign  Blog 


Nick  Puleo  has  launcheil 
a  cami'aign  blog  v\hich  he 
plans  to  use  as  a  lorum  lt>r  a 
discussion  of  the  issues  as  he 
runs  lor  School  ("onimitlee 
in  the  November  municipal 
election. 

"The  blog  is  a  great  op- 
portunity to  enhance  the  dis- 
cussions we  as  a  community 
have  about  the  .schi>ols  in  our 
city,"  he  said. 

"lor  too  K>ng,  we've  lo- 
ciiseil  on  a  very  narrow  set 
of  issues,  pushing  e\eiy thing 
else  to  the  back  burner. 

"Let's  put  the  concerns  o\' 
liaients,  teachers  and  lesi- 
dents  back  on  the  table  iind 
ha\e  a  meaniimlul  discus- 


sion about  improving  qual- 
ity." 

Puleo  stalled  the  blog  this 
week,  posting  policy  posi- 
tions and  campaign  updates. 

Those  wishing  to  view  it 
sht)u]d  vi.sit 

www.nickpuleo.com  and 
open  "campaign  blog." 

Pulei>  acknowledged  that 
many  Quincy  voters  do  not 
have  access  to  the  Internet  so 
he  plans  to  hold  open  lorums 
at  various  spots  across  the 
city. 

Throughout  his  cam- 
paign, he  has  sought  to  ex- 
pand the  issue  areas  beyond 
the  new  Quincy  High  vSchool 


and  teacher  contracts. 

Last  week,  he  proposed 
creating  a  million  dollar 
quality  fund  to  increase  the 
budget  for  extracurricular 
activities  and  enrichment 
programs,  which  he  plans  to 
discuss  on  his  blog. 

"Having  input  from  as 
many  people  as  possible  will 
only  help  to  strengthen  our 
schools,"  he  said. 

"Finding  new  ways  to 
improve  the  experiences  of 
children  throughout  the  city 
is  a  challenging  task. 

"These  aren't  decisions 
than  can  or  should  be  made 
in  a  bubble. "

Keenan  Sees  'Dramatic'  Hikes 
In  City's  Water,  Sewer  Bills 


City  Councillor  at  Large 
John  Keenan  is  concerned 
that  an  increase  in  MWRA 
rates  coupled  with  a  shitt  in 
Quincy's  method  ol  payment 
"will  result  in  rather  dramatic 
increases  in  water  and  sewer 
bills  this  year." 

in  a  letter  to  Public  Works 
Commissioner  Steve 
O'Donnell,  he  asked  for  a 
comparison  of  an  average 
water  and  sewer  bill  for  Fis- 
cal 2()()X  to  one  of  Fiscal 
2007  and  how  the  city  plans 
to  explain  il  to  the  rate  payer. 

Keenan  noted  that 
Quincy's  Fiscal  2008  water 
and  sewer  assessment  in- 
creased by  7.5  per  cent  over 
Fiscal  2007. 

At  the  same  time,  the  City 
Council,  at  the  recommenda- 
tion of  Mayor  Phelan,  estab- 


lished enterprise  lunds  with 
which  t(^  pay  the  assessment, 
thus  remo\  ing  it  from  the  ta,\ 
levy. 

"The  practical  effect."" 
said  Keenan,  "is  that  water 
and  sewer  bills  will  increase, 
while  the  portion  of  tax  bills 
that  went  to  pay  water  and 
sewer  costs  will  be  elimi- 
nated." 

"The  combination  of  the 
MWRA  rate  increase  and  the 
shifting  of  costs  to  the  enter- 
prise accounts  from  the  tax 
levy  likely  will  result  in 
rather  dramatic  increases  in 
water  and  sewer  bills  this 
year."  he  said  in  his  letter  to 
O'Donnell. 

"The  above  prompts  me 
to  inquire  as  to  the  rate  of 
increase  in  the  water  and 
sewer  bills  of  Quincy's  resi- 


dents and  busines.ses  for  Fis- 
cal Year  2008. 

"Specifically,  what  will 
be  the  average  residential 
and  commercial  water  and 
sewer  bills  for  FY  2008'.^ 
What  were  the  average  bills 
in  FY  2007  for  residential 
and  commercial  ratepayers ' 

"In  what  billing  cycle 
will  the  rate  increases  result- 
ing from  the  higher  assess- 
ments and  enterprise  ac- 
counts be  assessed'.' 

"Finally,  does  the  admin- 
istration have  any  plans  to 
convey  any  information  of 
this  type  to  homeowners  and 
businesses,  and  if  so,  what 
are  those  plans '.' 

"it  is  important  that  all 
ratepayers  be  made  aware  so 
that  they  can  plan  accord- 
ingly."

Charges  In  Debate  #1 


(Cont'd  From  Page  2) 

PUBLIC  SAFETY 
AND  DRUGS 

"We're  losing  a  genera- 
tion of  kids  to  drugs,"  Koch 
said,  adding.  "Status  quo  is 
not  enough."  He  said  he 
wants  more  enforcement  and 
beat  cops  in  Quincy  Center 
and  Wollaston. 

"It's  not  adequate  to  stick 
our  heads  in  the  sand  and 
hope  it  goes  away,"  said 
Koch. 

Koch  promised  to  bring 
social  agencies,  spiritual 
leaders  and  educators  to- 
gether to  fight  the  drug  prob- 
lem. At  the  same  time,  he 
believes  the  city  needs  more 
policing  and  beat  cops.  He 
charged  that  the  police  drug 
unit  had  1 0  to  12  members  in 
prior  years  and  now  the  unit 
has  five  members. 

Phelan  said  he' s  proud  that 
Quincy  was  listed  as  the  sec- 
ond safest  city  in  the  Com- 


monwealth (FBI  statistics 
provided  by  the  city),  second 
only  to  Newton  which  has  a 
different  population  and  in- 
come. 

There  is  a  "drug  epidemic 
in  our  schools,"  said  Phelan 
who  then  cited  numerous  pro- 
grams that  he  has  initiated  in 
the  past  six  years  to  combat 
the  drug  problem,  including 
his  support  for  police  re- 
source officers  in  each 
school,  the  DARE  program 
and  for  children  who  witness 
violent  crimes  and  for  safe 
neighborhood  recreation  ar- 
eas. 

"Policing  is  important,  but 
educating,  getting  kids  young 
is  more  important."  Phelan 
also  pointed  out  that  the  new 
Germantown  Community 
Center  just  opened  in  that 
very  day. 

GAY  MARRIAGE 

The  hour  long  debate  con- 
cluded with  a  question 

asking  the  candidates 


where  they  stood  on  the  issue 
of  gay  marriage. 

Phelan  supports  gay  mar- 
riage calling  the  issue  a  mat- 
ter of  equal  rights.  If  he  were 
in  the  legislature,  he  would 
have  voted  for  it. 

Koch  said,  "I  believe  mar- 
riage is  between  a  man  and  a 
woman.  We  will  treat  every- 
body with  respect."  He  said 
he  will  support  the  laws  of 
the  state  which  recognize  gay 
marriage. 

Rev.  William  English,  pas- 
tor of  Holy  Trinity  Church, 
attended  the  debate  as  did 
candidates  for  at-large  coun- 
cil seats,  Jennifer  Logue  and 
Victor  Ng,  and  current  Coun- 
cillor At  Large  John  Keenan, 
Ward  1  Councillor  Leo  Kelly, 
Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi,  former  Council- 
lor Michael  Cheney  and 
School  Committee  members 
David  McCarthy  and  Jim 
Timmins. 

The  election  will  be  held 
Tuesday,  Nov.  6.

State  School  Builders 
To  Tour  Sterling,  Central 


School  Bells  Sept.  5 
For  Grades  1-9 


Representatives  of  the 
Massachusetts  School  Build- 
ing Authority  (MSBA)  will 
tour  the  Sterling  and  Central 
Middle  Schools  this  week  to 
substantiate  the  high  priority 
placed  by  the  city  on  repairs 
to  both  buildings. 

The  MSBA  originally 
gave  the  schools  a  rating  of 
"y  but  Mayor  William 
Phelan  and  the  School  Com- 
mittee appealed  for  reconsid- 
eration and  the  MSBA  raised 
the  priority  to  "4"  as  in 
schools  with  the  greatest 


need. 

"We  have  worked  hard  to 
have  both  schools  receive  the 
improvements  that  they 
need,"  said  School  Superin- 
tendent Richard 
DeCristofaro. 

"Our  efforts  to  change  the 
MSBA  designation  allow  us 
to  up  the  priority  list  and  get 
our  schools  repaired  sooner 
rather  than  later. 

"I  commend  the  Mayor 
and  the  School  Committee 
for  their  work  to  make  sure 


that  the  needs  of  Central  and 
Sterling  remain  a  prit>rity." 

The  aim  of  the  tour,  which 
was  announced  by  Phelan. 
DeCristofaro  and  Directi>rof 
Buildings  Mike  Ryan,  is  to 
substantiate  the  interest 
forms  filed  by  the  city  in  or- 
der to  be  eligible  for  state 
reimbursement  of  renovation 
e.xpenses. 

Following  the  building 
reviews,  the  MSBA  will  con- 
tinue its  funding  process  in 
the  coming  months.

with  the  rapidly  expanding 
activities  at  the  Senior  Cen- 
ter. 

"We  have  welcomed  in- 
creasing numbers  of  senior 
participants  throughout  the 
summer  and  are  hoping  to 
provide  new  and  expanded 
activities  this  fall,"  said 


Maryann  Mahony,  senior 
center  coordinator. 

"We  are  a  private,  chari- 
table organization  and  have 
and  very  small  budget  for  our 
vSenior  Center.  That's  the  bad 
news.  The  good  news  is  that 
wonderful  caring  folk  help 
us  —  as  volunteers." 

Currently,  Beeehwood  is 
seeking  volunteers  to  assist 


with  arts  &  crafts,  lunch  pro- 
grams, horseshoes  and  out-

and  social  is  being  planned 
for  September.  Call  Maryann

FIRE    SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


License  Bocird  Mulls: 


Inspections  &  Education 


There  are  many  occupan- 
cies that  we  inspect  yearly: 
restaurants,  bars,  lodging 
homes  and  gas  stations  are 
just  a  few. 

We're  in  these  places 
once,  maybe  twice  if  an  in- 
spection requires  a  follow- 
up.  We  then  attempt  to  check 
whether  in  place  fire  systems 
are  being  maintained  as 
specified  by  code,  and  over- 
all, if  combustible  contents 
are  in  check  and  potential 
ignition  sources  are  isolated 
or  minimal.  While  each  type 
of  occupancy  requires  us  to 
look  upon  it  with  unique 
scrutiny,  our  education  ef- 
forts are  a  major  part  of  any 
inspection,  maybe  the  most 
important  part. 

The  real  payoff  to  inspec- 
tions, particularly  in  those 
occupancies  frequented  by 
the  public  or  those  unique 
residential  occupancies  such 
as  a  lodging  home,  occurs 
when  owners  and  manage- 
ment embrace  what  we  are 
attempting  to  sell  during 
those  inspections,  that  being 
the  basics  of  a  fire  safe  envi- 


ronment for  that  type  of  oc- 
cupancy. 

It  really  isn't  that  compli- 
cated, not  is  it  all  that  diffi- 
cult, while  certain  occupan- 
cies require  a  different  em- 
phasis. For  instance,  we 
don't  approach  a  gas  station 
inspection  as  we  do  an  as- 
sembly occupancy;  there  is 
less  emphasis  on  exit  access 
for  instance,  than  there  is  in 
an  assembly  occupancy. 
However,  in  any  of  our  in- 
spections, we  attempt  to  fo- 
cus on  specific  risks  convey- 
ing the  importance  to  the 
owners  or  managers  of  mini- 
mizing those  risks  through- 
out the  year,  not  just  for  that 
day. 

Whether  our  efforts  arise 
from  common  sense,  from 
actual  fire  experience  or  fire 
statistics,  the  importance  of 
our  message  can't  be  over- 
emphasized while  there  can 
be  a  frustration  when  our  ef- 
forts are  ignored.  I  believe 
that  all  of  us  live  with  an  un- 
derlying optimistic  wish  that 
such  and  such  a  tragedy  can't 
happen  to  me. 

Our  frustrations  as  in- 


spectors occur,  where  we 
have  experienced  the  down- 
side ol  fire,  tlic  devastation, 
both  in  lives  lost  and  prop- 
erty loss  and  know  that  it 
can.  Through  ins[xxtions,  we 
attempt  to  bridge  that  gap 
between  the  optimistic  wish 
that  says  it  can't  happen  here, 
and  the  reality  of  our  experi- 
ence which  conveys  that  it 
can,  but  this  is  all  yon  have 
to  do  to  minimize  the  chain  es 
of  it  occurring  or  the  impact 
if  it  does. 

1  understand  that  all  sorts 
of  demands  and  responsibili- 
ties distract  owners  and  man- 
agers, and  that  fire  safety 
may  not  be  at  the  forefront 
of  their  focus  each  and  ev- 
ery day.  Our  education  ef- 
forts, however,  year  after 
year,  are  an  attempt  to  de- 
velop a  solid  foundational 
priority  for  it  where  it  be- 
comes effortless  for  the 
owner  or  manager  to  main- 
tain. 

We  are  here  and  eager  to 
add  to  your  awareness  of  fire 
safety  as  well  and  welcome 
the  opportunity  to  do  so. 
Thank  vou.

Is  A  Cup  Of  Coffee  Food? 


License  Hoard  incnihers 
Muillcd  the  question  ol 
whether  a  eiip  oi  ei>rtee  is 
toi>d or ni>t  as the\  eonsideretl 
an  appliealicMi  b\  Steve 
Heberi.  owner  ol  .la\  a  Java, 
lor  a  last  food  license  at  60 
Quincy  Shore  Drive. 

Hcbert  filed  an  appHcation 
under  the  city's  Fast  KhkI 
Vendor  t>rdinance  but  labeled 
his  lequest  "under  protest" 
because  he  will  be  serving 
only  liquid  items  at  the  Java 
Java  outlet. 

Herbert  and  his  attorney 
claim  he  does  not  need  such 
a  license. 

Attorney  Carl  Johnson 
said  Hebert  has  a  right  to  his 
drive  thru  operation  because 
his  liquid  menu  is  not  covered 
by  the  requirements  of  a 
Common  Victualer  license 


Ol  the  cit\s  I'ast  f-'ood 
\'e!ul*>r  oiduiaiice. 

The  last  l-i>od  Vendor 
ordinance  ilescribes  such 
items  as  pi//a  and 
hamburgers  but  makes  no 
mention  ol'  liquid  items. 

As  a  result,  Johnson  said 
that  Java  Ja\a\  menu  "..does 
not  constitute  the  kind  of  food 
ci>ntrolled  under  the 
ordinance."  Johnson  also 
cited  the  coffee  machines  in 
the  city '  s  24-hour  stoi  es,  such 
as7-irs. 

Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  also  questioned  the 
fast  food  label  for  Java  Java's 
offerings.  Crowley  said,  "I'm 
not  in  favor  of  this  location. 
I've  said  it  numerous  times, 
but  1  don't  think  it  falls  under 
fast  food  definition." 

The    board    reviewed 


definitions  of  "food" 
provided  by  Assistant  City 
Solicitor  Robert  Quinn  and 
iliscussed  Java  Java's  menu 
before  deciding  it  was 
nourishment  and  voting 
unanimously  to  consider  a 
Fast  F'ood  Vendor  license  for 
the  business  at  their  next 
meeting. 

The  Java  Java  menu 
includes  such  items  as  a 
"Snicker"  made  of  rich  dark 
chocolate,  a  "Milky  Way" 
which  is  blend  of  white 
chiKolate  withcarniel  topped 
with  whipped  cream  and  a 
"Nutty  irishman"  which 
includes  macadamia  nuts, 
whipped  cream  and  dark 
chocolate. 

The  next  meeting  is 
Tuesday,  Sept.  1 1.

Putty  vs.  Tape  vs. 
String 

Q.rm  about  to  start  a 
•  project  to  replace 
my  old  kitchen  faucet,  and 
of  course  have  been  getting 
all  sorts  of  advice  about 
the  best  way  to  do  it.  Tm 
confused,  though,  when  it 
comes  to  sealing  the  pipe 
connections.  Some  piH>ple 
tell  me  to  use  a  product 
called  plumber's  putty, 
others  say  use  tape,  and 
one  retired  plumlMT  said 
string  is  the  way  to  go. 
What  kind  of  tape  or 
string  are  they  talking 
about?  U  hich  of  the  three 
Ls  best  to  u.se?  —  Terry  >'., 
y>  kite  Plains,  ^^. 

A,  Any  one  of  these  three 
•  products  call  he  used 
at  your  discretion  in  plumh- 
ing  repairs,  as  they  accom- 
phsh  pretty  much  the  same 
thing.  Hiey  are  placed 
around  the  threads  of  screw- 
in  connections  to  provide  a 
seal  against  water  leaks. 

PluTnt)er's  putty  is  a  veg- 
etable-based material  that 
does  not  dry  out  and  is  ea.sy 
to  apply.  It's  u.sed  in  other 
applications  besides  sealing 
threads,  because  it  can  be 
rolled  into  a  string  or  a  ball 


or  spread  along  a  surface. 

I'lumber's  tape,  more 
properly  called  Teflon  tape, 
is  wrapped  tightly  around 
pipe -stem  threads  before 
connections  are  screwed 
together,  sealing  the  threads. 

Packing  string  is  an  older 
type  of  sealing  material  that 
is  often  .seen  wrapped 
around  the  stems  t>f  older 
fixtures.  It's  still  a  versatile 
and  reliable  prixluct,  resis- 
tant to  heat  and  pressure, 
though  perhaps  a  bit  more 
frustrating  to  apply  than  the 
two  products  above. 

None  of  these  products  is  a 
replacement  for  proper-fit- 
ting hardware  and  gaskets. 
F-\)IIow  the  directions  pro- 
vided by  either  the  sink 
manufacturer  or  included 
with  the  replacement  or 
repair  matenals.  If  direc- 
tions call  for  use  of  one  of 
these  sealants,  u.se  the  rec- 
ommended type:  putty,  tape 
or  string.

Helpful  Hints  From  Experts 

Home  Office  Workers  Deal 
With  The  Sounds  Of  Summer 


(NAP.S)  -  Many 
traditional  joys  of  summer 
can  pose  challoiiucs  t()rtht>sc 
who  work  lioiii  home. 

.Suninicr  can  disrupt  the 
typically  tranquil  ofticc 
environment  of  honic-baseJ 
workers.  Conducting 

business  can  he  ditlicult  with 
a  radio  blaring  outside,  the 
kids  next  door  yelling  and 
sphisliing  in  their  pool  or  a 
neighbor's  weed  whacker 
w  liirnng  in  the  backgrouiul. 
According  to  JelT  /bar.  a 
leaiimg  home  olTice  expert 
and  creator  ol  the  resoiiice

phone  calls,  the  distractit»ns 
can  leave  the  person  on  the 
other  end  with  an 
unpn>tessional  impression  of 
the  at-home  vvorker. 

Whether  they're 

entrepreneurs  or  teleworkers, 
/.bar  says  home  office 
workers  can  reduce 
distracting  noises  with  a  few 
simple  steps: 

•  Buy  a  CD  featuring 
ambient  sounds  such  as 
waves  crashing  or  rain 
falling.  Not  only  will  the  CD 
block  out  the  noise;  it  will 
help  at-home  workers  relax 
on  the  job. 


•  Turn  on  a  Ian.  The  gentle 
hum  and  "white  noise"  will 
null  lie  distracting  sounds  and 
the  nil  Id  bree/e  makes  a  home 
oflice  more  pleasant. 

•  Move  to  ant)ther  room, 
ir  work  IS  portable,  pick  it  up 
and  take  il  to  another  area  in 
the  house,  away  from  the 
noise.  Ihe  change  in  setting 
might  also  boost 
productivity, 

•  Keep  kids  occupied,

of  the  dav  w  hen  business  is

•  Tap  technology. 
Wireless  innovations  for 
ciMiiputers  and  headsets  help 
make  work  more  portable  and 
productive.  Hoine-based 
workers  can  move 
throughout  the  house  and 
remain  connected.  Many

Decorating  Trends: 
The  Outside  Story 


(NAPS )  -  According  to  a 
recent  survey  by  the 
American  Institute  of 
Architects,  64  percent  of 
design  firms  are  seeing  an 
increased  interest  in  outdoor 
hving  spaces,  as  compared 
to  just  47  percent  a  year  or  so 
ago.  A  patio  or  deck  is  one  of 
the  top  three  features  people 
look  for  in  a  new  home,  with 
porches  growing  in 
popularity.  The  theme  these 
days  seems  to  be  upscale  style 
and  coordinated  accessories 
to  create  an  outdoor  space 
that  mirrors  the  interior. 
Three  trends  have  emerged: 

1.  Creation  of  a 
personalized  oasis  through 
garden  decor. 

2.  Adding  some  heat 
with  grills,  outdoor  fireplaces 
and  fire  pits. 

3.  Use  of  decorative 
outdoor  lighting,  ranging 
from  solar  tooutdoorcandles. 

For  those  homeowners 
looking  to  get  started  with 
the  creation  of  a  compelling 
outdoor  space  or  to  maximize 
what's  already  been  created, 
you  have  to  start  with  the 
basics.  That  means  making 
your  wood  deck,  fences, 
siding  and  furniture  look  their 
best. 

Experts  recommend 
looking  for  products  that  are 
specifically  designed  to 
withstand  harsh  weather 
conditions,  from  torrential 
rain  to  strong  UV  rays.  To 


meet  this  need,  Behr  has 
developed  a  line  of  Premium 
Stains  and  Weatherproofers, 
all  with  NanoGuard 
technology.  This  innovative 
technology  uses  tiny 
nanoparticles  to  create  an 
interlocking  molecular 
structure  that  fills  the  voids 
created  by  larger  particles, 
resulting  in  products  that 
provide  superior  adhesion;  a 
durable  finish  that  resists 
cracks,  peeling  and 
blistering;  and  excellent  dirt, 
moisture  and  UV  resistance. 
The  result  is  that  these  are 
Behr's  longest  lasting 
exterior  wood  coating 
products  and  all  have  easy 
water  clean-up. 

Depending  on  your 
outdoor  space  and  the 
condition  of  your  wood,  you 
can  choose  from  four 
different  opacity  options 
from  Behr  for 

weatherproofmg  your  wood, 
each  with  its  own  unique 
benefits: 

•  Premium  Solid  Color 
Weatherproofmg  Stain-hides 
surface  imperfections  but  lets 
the  wood  texture  show 
through. 

•  Premium  Semi- 
Transparent 
Weatherproofing  Stain- 
excellent  for  adding  new 
color,  while  allowing  the 
natural  beauty  of  wood  grain 
to  show  through. 

•  Premium  Wood-Toned 


Weatherproofing  Wot)d 
Finish-adds  a  hint  of  ui>od- 
toned  color  yet  allows  wood 
grain  to  completely  show 
through. 

•  Premium  Transparent 
Weatherproofing  Wood 
Finish-allows  the  natural 
beauty  of  the  wood  grain  to 
completely  show  through. 

Experts  also  advise 
looking  for  products  such  as 
these  that  offer  exceptional 
warranties,  which  gives  you 
the  confidence  of  knowing 
that  after  you  weatherproof 
your  deck,  porch,  patio,  fence 
or  siding,  you  can  then 
concentrate  on  decorating 
and  enjoying  your  space  for 
years  to  come.

Hydrangeas  Add  Splash  Of  Color 


(NAPS) -Hydrangea  fans 
can  paint  their  gardens  this 
season  with  a  new  breed  of 
colorful  blooms. 

Gardeners  across  the 
country  can  create  a  riot  of 
color  with  these  red,  pink, 
blue  and  purple  hydrangeas 
that  add  beauty  and  variety 
to  mass  landscapes,  border 
plantings,  container  plants 
and  even  partially  shaded 
areas.  Here's  a  closer  look: 

Whatever  The  W  eather 

The  new  hydrangeas 
produce  flower  buds  on  new 
growth  in  the  spnng.  This 


ensures  blooms  even  in  harsh 
climates.  Other  hydrangea 
varieties  set  their  flower  buds 
in  autumn,  leaving  them 
susceptible  to  winter  injury. 
A  Colorful  History 
Forever  &  Ever 
Hydrangeas®,  the  original  in 
the  series,  was  introduced  in 
2005.  Its  mop-headed 
flowers  grow  pink  or  blue 
depending  on  soil  pH.  Each 
has  a  long  season  of  bloom 
and  the  laree  flowers  can  be 


enjoyed  as  cut  or  dried 
flowers.  Prunmg  of  spent 
blooms  encourages  more 
blooms  throughout  the 
season. 

Red  w  as  the  second  in  the 
series.  With  hurgandy-red 
stems.  Its  mop-headed 
flowers  begin  blooming  red 
and  then  transform  to  shades 
of  purple  as  the  blooms  age. 

A  third.  Double  Pink 
variety  was  introduced  in 
2006.  It  is  a  show  stopper  w  ith 


6-inch,  full  clusters  of  double 
star-shaped  pink  fli>wers  that 
create  a  billowy  mound  on  a 
compact  plant. 

The  Double  Pink  can 
produce  pink  or  beautiful 
blue  blooms  depending  on 
soil  pH.  Alkaline  soils 
produce  pink  blooms  while 
acidic  soils  result  in  blue 
blooms.  Ask  your  garden 
center  professional  or  state 
extension  agent  hou  tot)btam 
a  soil  test  to  Jeternime  pH.

Get  An  'A'  In  Financial  Aid  101: 

Simple  Tips  For  Funding 

Your  College  Education 


Gearing  Up  For  School  Today 


(NAPS)  -  In  today's  job 
market,  VLMy  lew  dispute  the 
iniportaiKe  and  benefits  ol 
higher  education.  7'he  record 
number  ol  students  enroUing 
in  colleges  and  universities 
across  the  country  certainly 
backs  this  belief.  However, 
while  incoming  students  get 
ready  to  embrace  the 
academic  and  social  rigors 
ol  college  life,  many  will 
have  their  most  difficult  test 
before  they  even  arrive  on 
campus... paying  for  tuition. 

rhe  cost  of  tuition 
contmues  to  skyrocket.  In 
lact.  on  average,  the  cost  of 
college  tuiti()n  at  both  public 
and  private  universities  has 
doubled  over  the  last  20 
years.  The  news  is  not  all  bad 
though,  as  the  selection  of 
financing  options  and 
financial  aid  packages 
available  to  students 
continues  to  grow.  Before 
you  begin  e.xplonng  the  many 
different  choices,  consider 
these  tips  from  GM  AC  Bank, 
which  offers  private 
education  loans  for 
undergraduate,  graduate  and 
continuing  education 
students. 

•  Know  your  costs.  The 
first  step  in  financing  a 
college  educatic^n  is  to  get  a 
clear  picture  of  how  much  it 
will  cost  and  to  begin  building 
an  annual  budget  for  each 
year  of  college,  per  student. 

"You  need  to  look  beyond 
Just  the  tuition  of  a  college  or 
university,"  said  Debra  Scott, 
director  of  the  education  loan 
program  for  GMAC  Bank. 
"College  expenses  also 
include  dorm  fees  or  rent  for 
i>ff-campus  apartments,  meal 
plans,  the  ci^st  o\  books  and 
other  miscellaneous  fees. 
e\en  the  cost  ot  lra\elmg 
home  during  school  breaks." 

•  Know  your  options.

Today's  students  and  parents 
need  to  be  savvy  abcnit 
uncovering  progiams  that  can 
oiler  financial  assistance. 
While  the  variety  and  choice 
of  options  might  seem 
confusing,  the  best  starting 
point  is  to  consider  three 
primary  sources:  federal 
assistance,  scholarships  and 
private  student  loans. 

•  Federal  As.si.stancc  - 
Begin  your  financial  aidcjuest 
by  looking  into  grants  and 
loans  offered  by  the  federal 
government.  For  example, 
federal  grants  such  as  Fell 
Grants  can  range  from  .SKK) 
to  $4,(K)()  per  year  based  on 
level  ofneed  an  do  not  require 
repayment.  Federal  student 
loans,  such  as  the  well-known 
Stafford  or  Perkins  loans,  are 
available  for  undergraduate 
students,  graduate  students 
and  for  parents  of  dependent 
undergraduate  students  and 
do  require  repayment. 

•  Scholarships  -  Like 
grants,  these  arc  funds  used 
to  pay  for  higher  education 
tat  do  not  need  to  be  repaid. 
Scholarships  are  offered  by  a 
wide  range  of  institutions- 
from  awards  offered  by  your 
potential  college  or 
university  to  those  bestowed 
by  local  organizations, 
corporations  and  a  variety  of 
other  sources.  Scholarships 
are  awarded  based  on  a 
variety  of  critena  (not  all  are 
based  on  academic 
performance  or  financial 
need ).  so  be  sure  to  check  for 
lurther  information  on 
eligibilit\.  Leave  no  stone 
unturned  in  \our  search,  as 


many  scholarships  go  unused 
each  year. 

•  Private  Student  l>oans 

-  Another  option  is  the 
private  student  loan.  Flexible 
by  nature,  these  types  of  loans 
can  cover  all  or  a  significant 
amount  of  your  tuition  and 
othcrexpenses.  Private  loans 
can  be  used  lo  cover  any  cost 
associated  with  attending 
school,  such  as  tuition,  books, 
computers,  travel  and  living 
expenses.  Typically  deferred 
until  alter  graduation,  they 
can  also  be  used  in 
coordination  with  other 
sources  ol  iunding.  I-or 
example,  a  financial  aid 
package  may  only  cover 
tuition  and  board,  so  a  private 
student  loan  may  be  helpful 
in  paying  forothereducation- 
related  e.xpenses. 

"Students  should  realize 
that  they  are  not  limited  to 
one  type  (»f  financial  aid." 
added  Scott.  ".Vlore  and  more 
students  are  funding  their 
education  through  a  variety 
of  sources  including  a 
financial  aid  mix  of  prixate 
loans  in  combination  v\ith 
sa\ings,  federal  loans,  grants, 
or  scholarships  and  part-time 
jobs." 

Arranging  financing  for 
college  is  the  first  real-life 
lesson  in  managing  money 
that  many  \oung  people  will 
experience.  With  some 
thorough  research,  you  could 
be  well  on  your  u  ay  \o  getting 
an  '".A"  in  Financial  .Aid  ID]

(NAPS)  I'or  millions  ol 
American  lamihes.  back-to- 
school  shopping  has  evolved 
from  a  ijuick  dash  for  paper 
and  pencils  into  a  process 
that  begins  much  earlier  in 
the  summer. 

The  I'.S.  Department  of 
lulucation  estimates  that 
almost  IX  million  students 
uill  enroll  in  .\meriCiin 
colleges  and  uni\  ersities  this 
year.  And  a  nev\  national 
survey  shov\s  that  tamilies 
with  college-bouni.1  students 
ha\e  been  shopping  lor 
weeks  for  the  electronic  gear 
that  students  v\ill  rely  on 
during  their  academic 
careers. 

Responding  to  the  sur\ev , 
commissioned  by  electronics 
retailer  Circuit  City  aiul 
conducted  by  independent 
research  firm  Decision 
Analyst,  Inc.,  53  percent  ot 
college  students  said  the\ 
first  started  shopping  for  tech 
gear  two  months  or  more 
before  classes  began.  The 
same  consumer  research 
revealed  that  nearly  62 
percent  of  L'.S.  colleges  and 
universities  now  require  or 
recommend  that  students 
own  computers. 

"There's  no  question  that 
college  students  use  their 
computers  da)  in  and  da\ 
out.  not  only  for  academics 
and  communications,  hut 
also  for  music  and  video 
games."  said  Elliot  Becker. 


vice  piesident  fortechnoK>gy 
at  (Mrciiit  City.  "But 
companies  are  only  the  tip  ol 
the  iceberg.  Ihese  days, 
stuilcnts  take  a  wide  variety 
of  gear  to  college  Whether 
It "s cell  phones,  MP,^  players, 
digital  cameras  or  dorm-sizetl 
rVs.  today 'scollegestutlents 
are  mote  "plugged  in'  than 
ever  before." 

Better  (J rades 

Nearly  'M)  percent  o[ 
stuilents  surveyed  said 
owning  their  own  computers 
helped  them  earn  bcilcr 
grades.  Flight  out  ot  ten 
students  said  they  wouUI 
choose  a  notebook  computer 
o\cr  a  tiesktop  model. 

It's  important  to  choose  a 
computer  model  that  lits  the 
students  individual  and 
academic  needs.  Many 
college  Web  sites  post 
computer  requireiTients  lor 
their  various  course 
offerings,  bamilies  should 
remember  that  a  computer  is 
a  tool  their  students  will  use 
throutihout    their  college 


careers,  so  they  should  make 
sure  they  buy  a  model  with 
enough  menu)ry  and 
ci>mputing  power  to 
accomnK>date  student  needs. 

Different  Usase 

Patterns 

It's  not  surprising  that 
ct>llege  students  use  their 
computers  and  cell  phones 
on  a  dail>  basis.  But  the 
survey  also  revealed  different 
usage  patterns  for  male  and 
female  students.  Male  college 
students  tend  to  use  MP.^ 
players  and  video  game 
consoles  more  olten  than 
female  students;  female 
students  use  digital  cameras 
more  often  than  the  guys. 

The  survey  also  hints  at 
some  subtle  regional 
ditferenccs;  Western  college 
students  watch  slightly  less 
TV  and  take  more  pictures 
than  their  counterparts 
elsewhere  in  the  countrv. 
More  students  in  the 
Northeast  are  likely  to  pay 
video  games  than  students 
el  sew,  here.

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Ihiirsday,  Aug.  16,  at  approximately  10:40 
p.m..  Officers  lom  Loughliii  and  .loc  Paccioretti 
were  ilispatchcd  \o  Ross  Parkingway  in  Quincy 
StiUiire  on  a  call  of  a  wcniian  who  just  had  her  purse 
stolen,  hiiroute  to  the  area,  the  officers  were  told 
that  the  suspect,  a  blonde  female,  was  headed  \o  the 
parking  garage  folh>wetl  by  a  witness. 

Officer  Pacciorclti  re- 
ported he  had  a  suspect 
CHI  the  Paul  Harold 
Bridge.  As  Officer 
Foughlin  apprcniched  the 
area,  a  male  pointeil  to 
ihe  area  where  Officer 
Paccioretti  hail  the  fe- 
male stctpped.  Officer 
l.oughliii  also  noted  an 
older  female  v\  as  ap- 
proaching        Officer 

F\iccioretti.  The  male  then  walked  up  to  Officer 
Li>ughlin  and  told  him  that  he  was  the  witness  who 
called.  He  said  he  was  in  Alba's  Restaurant  when 
he  saw  the  two  women  flee  out  the  door. 

.A  wiMiian  in  the  restaurant  said  they  had  tried  to 
steal  her  purse.  The  witness  stated  the  two  females 
were  definitely  together.  Officer  Loughlin  spoke 
with  the  older  woman,  who  stated  the  blonde  fe- 
male was  her  daughter  and  they  did  not  steal  the 
purse. 

As  Sgt.  Robert  Bina  went  to  Alba's  Restaurant 
and  located  the  victim.  Officer  Loughlin  then  at- 
tempted to  place  the  daughter  in  the  rear  of  the 
cruiser.  The  daughter  (suspect  #1 )  then  resisted  by 
kneeing  Officer  Loughlin  in  the  leg.  then  scratched 
his  hands  with  her  flngernails.  She  was  placed  in 
handcufl\  and  under  arrest. 

Sgt.  Bina  went  to  Alba's  and  interviewed  the  vic- 
tim, w  ho  said  she  w  as  outside  the  restaurant  talking 
on  her  cell  phone  when  the  blonde  woman  w alked 
by  and  grabbed  at  her  purse.  The  victim  held  on  to 
her  purse  and  during  the  brief  struggle,  the  older 
w  Oman  ( suspect  #2  -  the  mother)  said  to  her  daugh- 
ter, suspect  #],  '"What  are  you  doing?"  Suspect  #1 
retorted.  "Y'ou  told  me  to  do  it!" 

The  victim  showed  Sgt.  Bina  the  abrasion  marks 
on  her  arm  from  the  purse  straps  she  received  from 
her  struggle  to  hold  onto  the  purse.  The  victim  said 
the  two  suspects  left  and  this  is  when  the  male  wit- 
ness told  her  to  go  inside  and  call  the  police  while 
he  followed  the  suspects. 

Sgt.  Bina  arrived  on  scene  with  the  victim,  who 
confirmed  the  identity  of  both  females,  identifying 
the  blonde  as  the  suspect  who  grabbed  the  purse. 
Both  suspects  -  the  daughter  and  the  mother  crime 
team  -  were  placed  under  arrest  and  transported  to 
the  police  station. 

During  the  booking,  suspect  #1  gave  a  false  name, 
but  through  fingerprints,  her  actual  identity  showed 
she  had  three  default  warrants  and  two  straight  war- 
rants. Suspect  #1 ,  a  20-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was 
charged  with  attempt  to  commit  a  crime,  providing 
a  false  name  to  a  police  officer  after  arrest,  resisting 
arrest,  assault  and  battery  on  a  police  officer,  along 
with  the  five  outstanding  warrants.  Suspect  #2,  the 
40-year-old  Quincy  mother,  was  charged  with  at- 
tempt to  commit  a  crime. 
Nice  Work! 

In  this  case,  the  outcome  worked  out  well.  The 
thieves  were  unsuccessful  in  stealing  the  purse,  the 
victim  suffered  minor  injuries,  there  were  two  wit- 
nesses and  the  suspects  were  caught. 

Carrying  a  purse,  handbag  or  pocketbook  pro- 
vides opportunity  for  would-be  thieves.  Consider 
the  need  to  carry  a  purse  and  the  tedious  tasks  of 
replacing  documents  such  as  credit  cards,  licenses, 
etc.,  along  with  sentimental  items  that  cannot  be 
replaced.  For  this  victim,  all  she  really  needed  to 
carry  was  her  license,  credit  card  and  cash,  which 
could  be  carried  in  a  pocket  or  other  hard-to-steal 
location

CYCLING  AND  FOOT  INJURIES 


It  you  are  an  avid  cyclist, 
you  know  that  there  are  times 
during  a  great  ride  that  you  feel 
at  one  with  the  machine.  How- 
ever, unless  everything  is 
aligned  correctly  and  you  are 
properly  warmed  up,  you  can 
hurt  your  feet.  Overtraining, 
improper  seat  height,  and  not 
warming  up  can  contnbute  to 
an  inflammation  ot  your  Achil- 
les tendon.  The  stress  that  cy- 
cling ups  on  the  tiny  sesamoid 
bones  beneath  the  first  meta- 
tarsal bones  can  lead  to  sesa- 
moiditis.  Cyclists  may  also  ex- 
perience numbness,  tingling,  or 
burning  in  the  toes.  This  is  a 
result  of  small  nerve  branches 
being  cramped  If  this  occurs, 
try  wider  shoes  or  loosening 
your  straps  or  laces.  If  any  of 
these  problems  persist,  your  po- 
diatrist can  recommend  treat- 
ment 

If  you  are  the  unfortunate 


victim  of  a  sports  'ijury,  oe

Dancing  Your 

Way  to  a  Fit 

Lifestyle 

Q.  I  enjoy  dancing  and 
.  startfKi  taking  a 
group  exercise  dance  class 
twice  a  week.  Kach  class 
lasts  about  an  hour,  and 
we  move  the  entire  dass. 
leaving  me  exhausted  at 
the  end  of  class,  lom- 
pared  with  other  types  of 
cardio  actrvities  such  as 
the  treadmill  or  hiking. 
could  I  ju.st  u.se  my  dance 
class  as  my  cardiova.sctilar 
w(>rkt>ut  or  would  I  need 
to  do  more? 

A,  Dancing  is  an  excel- 
•  lent  form  of  cxenrise 
that  IS  becommk:  morr  and 
more  pi^pular  with  tele\i- 
sions  shows  featunng  danc- 
ing, home  DVDs  and 
videos,  and  group  exemse 
classes  in  fitness  centers 
focusing  on  dance -inspired 
workouts. 

Dance  stales  from  ball- 
room, Latin  dance,  hip-hop. 
funk  axKJ  many  more  are 
being  used  to  give  exercis- 
ers a  challenging  workout 
while  still  having  fun.  The 
moves  done  while  dancing 
are  definitely  beneficial  car- 
diovascular exercise  —  how 
much  you  challenge  your- 
self will  determine  how 
many  calones  you  bum. 

On  average,  a  daixre  class 
m  which  the  participant  is 
movmg  the  entire  time  can 
bum  from  300  to  400  calo- 
nes for  a  55-minute  class. 
This  t^fjc  of  cardiovascular 
workout  is  great  due  to  the 


use  of  your  entire  body  and 
the  constant  movement. 

Many  people  are  able  to 
keep  their  heart  rate  elevat- 
ed throughout  a  dance  group 
exercise  class  because  they 
are  not  thinking  that  they  are 
exercising,  but  just  having 
fun.  Also,  the  challenge  of 
learning  new  dance  styles 
;ind  choreography  keeps 
participants  excited. 

But  while  dancing  pm- 
Mdes  a  great  workout,  it 
cannot  be  your  ONl-Y  type 
of  exeaise.  Since  you 
attend  class  twice  a  week, 
you  would  still  need  to  exer- 
ci.se  two  to  three  days  more 
each  week.  This  should 
include  some  t>-pe  of 
strength  traimng  and  addi- 
tional cardiovascular  work- 
outs. 

.A  balanced  workout  is 
important  for  promoting 
overall  fitness  and  should 
irtcludc  at  least  four  days  a 
week  of  cardiovascular 
exercise  and  at  least  three 
days  a  week  of  strength  and 
flexibility  traimng. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

sonal trainer  with  an  exten-

ARIES  (March  21  to  Apnl 

19)  This  week  could  ofler 
more  opportunities  for  ambi- 
tious Lambs  eager  to  get 
ahead.  But  don't  rush  into 
making  decisions  until 
you've  checked  for  possible 
hidden  problems. 

TAURUS  (Apnl  20  to  May 

20)  Some  light  begins  to 
shme  on  professional  and/or 
personal  situations  that  have 
long  eluded  explanation. 
Best  advice:  Don't  rush 
things.  All  will  be  made  clear 
in  time. 

GEMINI  (Mav  21  to  June 
20)  .Although  you  might  want 
to  protest  what  seems  to  be  an 
unfatr  situation,  it's  best  to 
keep  your  tongue  and  temper 
in  check  for  now  The  full 
story  hasn't  yet  come  out. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Work  prospects  are  back 
on  track.  But  watch  what  you 
say.  -A  thoughtless  comment 
to  the  wrong  person  —  even 
if  It's  said  in  jest  —  could 
delay  or  even  derail  your 
progress .

October  22)  Although  it's  not 
quite  what  you  hoped  for.  use 
your  good  business  .sen.se  to 
make  the  most  of  what  you  're 
being  offered  at  this  time. 
Things  will  improve  down 
the  line. 

SCORPIO  (October  2.3  to 
November  21)  A  more  posi- 
tive picture  of  what  lies  ahead 
is  beginning  to  take  shape. 
But  there  are  still  too  many 
gaps  that  need  to  be  filled  in 
before  you  make  definitive 
plans. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem 
ber  22  to  December  21 )  Con- 
tinue to  keep  a  tight  hold  on 
the  reins  so  that  you  don't 
charge  willy-nilly  into  a  situ- 
ation that  might  appear 
attractive  on  the  surface  but 
lack  substance.

need  to  demand  those 
answers  to  your  questions. 
Remember,  vour  wi.se  coun- 
seling earns  you  respect,  but 
it's  your  .search  for  truth  that 
gives  vou  wi.sdom.

Restaurant  License  Suspended  2  Days 


(Cont'd  from  I'dj^c  .^) 

prt)viclc  idcntilication. 
According  to  Turowski,  the 
waitress  said.  "She  looked 
okay." 

"We're  very  sorry  and  we 
are  very  emharrassed,"  said 
Kail.au  who  holds  the  hcense 
tor  The  Little  Q  Hot  Pot. 

The  same  restaurant  was 
caught  serving  alcohol  to  a 
minor  patron  on  January  '' 
Alter  that  ollense.  the  Boaid 
issued  a  two-day  suspension, 
hut  suspended  the 
punishment  for  12  months. 

At  that  time,  Turowski 
encourageil    managers   to 


enroll  their  wait  staff  in  a 
TIPS  (Training  in  Proper 
Service  Protocol)  Program. 

The  TIPS  training 
educates  those  serving  and 
selling  alcohol  regarding 
state  and  local  laws.  Lau  and 
his  managers  have  completed 
TIPS  training;  but  none  of 
Lau's  staff  of  seven  full  and 
part-time  waiters  and 
waitresses  has  ever  signed 
on  for  the  program. 

This  tune,  BoartI  members 
voted  the  suspension  and 
diiecled  that  it  be  enlorced 
on  a  Thursday  and  Iriday 
night. 

The  Board  took  no  action 


and  placed  on  file  acomplaint 
against  Granite  Rail  on 
Cottage  Avenue  where  two 
patrons  were  served  alcohol 
after  presenting  false 
identifications. 

One  identification  was  a 
New  Jersey  card  and  the 
second,  a  military 
identification  belonging  to 
the  brother  of  the  minor 
patron.  In  both  instances,  the 
waitress  checked  the 
identification,  but  she  served 
the  youths. 

Due  to  personal  reasons. 
Police  Chief  Robert  Crowley 
absented  himself  from  that 
hearing.

from  Hancock  Street  to  the 
Quincy  T  Station. 

Crowley  told  the  License 
Board  at  Tuesday's  meeting 
that  he  wants  the  "City 
Council  to  look  into  a 
smoking  ban  on  that  entire 
mall."  He  said  he  intends  to 
ask  City  Council  President 
Douglas  Ciutro  to  consider 
his  proposal  for  the  No 
Smoking  ordinance  for  the 
area. 

Smoking  and  loitering 
were  two  issues  discussed  at 
Tuesday's  meeting  when 
.luliet  I.oebardt,  owner  of  Ciet 
liesh  Rotisserie  &  Grill, 
sought  a  license  for  (outdoor 
WhkI  and  be\  erage  service  at 
her  restaurant  which  opens 
t)nto  the  mall  path. 

The  Bcnird  unanimously 
approved  the  application  for 
nine  outdoor  tables  with 
seating  for  25  on  17  feet  of 
mall's  .M)-foot  wide  space. 
The  dining  area  will  be 
marked  by  planters  at  the 
lamppost,    according    to 


ROBERT  CROWLEY 

Loebardts  who  said  she  only 
has  four  tables  at  this  time. 

Loebardt  said  that  foot 
traffic  and  loitering  is  only 
hea\  y  when  the  high  school 
lets  out.  Part  of  the  problem 
is  that  loiterer  and  the 
students  use  the  area  for 
meetings  and  smoking. 

"The  kids  are  underage. 
They  shouldn't  even  ha\e 
access  to  tobacco, "  said 
Lt>ebardt. 

"This  plays  right  into  our 
policy  of  trying  to  encourage 
this  kind  oi'  venue,"  Board 
Chairman  Joseph  Shea  said

proposal  before  the  5-0  vote. 

Shea  said  all  the  details  of 
the  new  dining  area  will  be 
reviewed  prior  to  being 
forwarded  to  the  Alcoholic 
Beverage  Commissitin 
(ABC)  which  mu.sl  approve 
the  expansion. 

Health  Commissioner 
Drew  Scheele  said  the 
board's  approval  can  be 
withdrawn  on  24-hours 
notice  if  any  problems  arise. 

After  the  meeting, 
Loebardt  said  she  may  put 
out  her  tables  as  early  as  this 
week. 

The  License  Board  also 
approved,  by  a  4-0  vote,  an 
outdoordining  area  requested 
by  Commander  Jim  Doherty 
for  Nickerson  Post  on  Moon 
Island  Road,  Squantum. 

The  outdoor  area  at  the 
Nickerson  Post  will 
accommodate  40  persons  on 
a  20  by  .^8-foot  deck  with  a 
three-foot  railing,  according 
to  manager  Mylcs 
McDonough. 

Under  the  license 
agreement,  Nickerson  Post 
must  stop  serving  alcohol  on 
the  deck  at  1 1  p.m.  and  no 
speakers  or  music  is  allowed. 

The  Board  also  voted  4-0 
to  convert  the  post's  license 
from  a  club  All  Alcohol 
License  to  a  Veteran's  Club 
all  Alcohol  license  which 
limits  patrons  to  members 
and  member-sponsored 
guests  and  all  visitors  must 
sign  in. 

For  personal  reasons, 
Chief  Crowley  did  not  vote 
and  ab.sented  him.self  during 
both  discussions  of  the 
Nickerson  Post. 

The  ABC  must  approve 
both  changes.

Residents  Urged 
To  Water  New  Trees 


Because  of  the  lack  of 
rain,  residents  are  urged  by 
Mayor  William  Phelan  and 
Park-Forestry  Director  Mark 
Jaehnig  to  water  new  trees 
planted  by  the  city  in  the  past 
year. 

"With  the  weather  we've 
had.  we  ask  residents  to  pe- 
riodically take  the  hose  to  the 
area  surrounding  the  base  of 
tfie  new  trees,"  said  Jaehnig. 
"The  drought  we've  had  is 

llipilill 


especially  tough  on  younger 
trees  and  we  ask  residents  to 
help  protect  our  new  trees  by 
helping  out  with  some  water 
during  the  extended  dry  pe- 
riods." 

"Quincy's  tree-lined 
streets  allow  us  to  maintain 
a  quaint  small-town  feel." 
said  Phelan.  "They  clean  our 
air,  cool  our  neighborhoods 
during  the  summer  months, 
they  look  beautiful,  and  are 


good  for  our  local  environ- 
ment. I  am  proud  of  the  work 
we  have  done  to  plant  new 
trees  and  we  will  continue  to 
add  to  our  urban  forest.'" 

The  city  planted  more 
than  300  trees  throughout  the 
neighborhoods  the  past  18 
months  and  plans  to  plant 
more  in  October.  The  tree 
plantings  are  part  of  the 
"Neighborhoods  First"  pro- 
gram. 


Quincy  Sun  Price 
Is  Now  50  Cents 


As  announced  last 
week.  The  price  of  I'hc 
Quincy  Sun  is  50  cents  ef- 
fective with  this  Sept.  6  is- 
sue. 

The  10-cent  increase  is 
for  copies  of  The  Sun  sold 
at  newsstands  and  deliv- 
ered to  homes  by 
newscarriers. 

The  yearly  mail  sub- 
scriptions were  increased 
in  August  and  are  not  af- 


fected bv  this  new  rate. 

At  50  cents,  ihe  price  of 
The  Sun  is  still  louer  than 
that  ol  iiiost  weeklv  newspa- 
pers in  the  South  Shore  and 
New  Lngland  areas. 

As  we  noted  last  week, 
we  regret  the  increase  whicti 
is  our  first  in  seven  years,  but 
rising  production  and  other 
costs  force  us  to  make  this 
adjustment. 

Again,  we  want  to  say  we 


arc  most  gratelu!  lo  our 
loval  readers  and  advertis- 
ers who  have  encouraged 
and  su|i|)orted  us  m  our 
role  as  llisione  Quincy's 
[L>mclown  Weekly  News- 
paper since  September, 

We  hope  you  will  un- 
derstand the  need  for  the 
price  adjustment. 

Thank  you,  sincereK

TV  Documentary 

To  Recall  Quincy's 

Granite  Industry 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

Jonathan  Samuel  Swingle 
came  to  Quincy  from  Ohio 
in  response  to  a  want  ad  in 
1886,  a  30-year-old  book- 
keeper and  former  coal 
miner  with  $20  in  his  pocket 
and  a  burning  desire  to  suc- 
ceed in  whatever  business 
was  there. 

He  remained  to  make  his 
fortune  quarrying  granite, 
reviving  and  guiding  a  once 
great  Quincy  industry 
through  its  final  period  of 
distinction.

Now,  his  granddaughter. 
Jo  Anne  Swingle  Hennigan, 
and  her  partner,  Joe  Greene, 
a  programmer  at  MIT,  are 
seeking  to  revive  the  granite 
industry  once  more,  this  time 
on  tape  for  a  TV  documen- 
tary. They've  been  at  it  for 
three  or  four  months. 

"We're  still  gathering  in- 
formation," said  Greene. 


"We're  interested  in  asking 
people  if  they  have  pictures 
of  Swingle's  Quarry  before 
it  was  filled  in.  We're  trying 
to  get  information  before  it 
goes  away.  The  people  who 
knew  it  best  are  getting  older. 

"I've  started  writing  the 
script  to  the  documentary  but 
even  as  I  write  something 
else  comes  up  for  us  to  re- 
search." 

Hennigan  and  Greene 
have  hundreds  of  pictures

The  long-running  dispute 
between  Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  and  the  Quincy  Po- 
lice Patrol  Officers  Associa- 
tion, spilled  over  into  Quincy 
District  Court  last  week. 

Union  President  Bruce 
Tail  issued  a  criminal  com- 
plaint charging  that  the  chiel 
deliberately  ordered  Officer 
Michael  O'Brien  to  drive  a 


car  when  he  knew  his  license 
had  expired. 

"They  are  processing  the 
complaint  in  District  Court 
right  now,"  said  Tail  Tuesday 
afternoon.  "There  will  be  a 
court  magistrate's  hearing  to 
determine  if  there  is  probable 
cause." 

Crowley  was  not  avail- 
able for  comment. 


The  complaint  against 
Crowley  notes  that  it  is  ille- 
gal to  knowingly  allow 
someone  to  drive  a  car  with- 
out a  license  when  the  ve- 
hicle is  under  his  control,  like 
the  chiel  and  a  police  car. 

Tait's  report  ol  the  inci- 
dent said  Crowley  had  a  ser- 
geant watch  O'Brien  get  into

The  Tradition  Goes  On 


GEORGE 
PARKER 


George  Parker,  you  might  say,  was  a  true  original. 
He  could  be  tough,  rough  and 
gruff. 

And,  a  big  hearted  softy,  too. 
The  tough  side  showed  up  when, 
for  example,  it  came  to  phonies.  They 
got  an  earful  and  learned  to  stay  out  of 
his  way. 

And,  as  for  elected  officials  he  felt 
weren'tdoingthejob  they  were  elected 
to  do,  he  was  quite  happy  to  give  them 
a  free  Job  performance  rating.  They  didn't  need  an 
opinion  poll. 

But  those  closest  to  him  knew  the  other  George 
Parker:  the  big  Teddy  Bear  ready  to  help  a  worthy  cause 
especially  one  for  the  kids. 

George,  who  owned  and  operated  the  Yellow  Cub 
Co.  of  Quincy,  for  35  years  died  in  May,  2000  at  age  65. 
He  had  a  heart  as  big  as  one  of  his  Yellow  cabs. 
1  think  of  him  each  Labor  Day.  It  was  on  Labor  Day, 
1976  that  we  met. 

The  Sun  was  the  Quincy-South  Shore  pledge  center 
for  the  Jerry  Lewis  Muscular  Dystrophy  Telethon. 

George  came  in  that  first  year  with  two  $400  checks 
to  get  us  off  to  a  good  start.  One  was  a  company  check 
and  the  other  a  personal  one. 

And  for  the  next  10  years,  it  was  an  annual  ritual. 
George  with  two  $400  checks  each  Labor  Day. 

During  those  10  years  the  pledge  center  raised  over 
$  1  million  for  Jerry's  Kids,  thanks  to  George  and  a  lot 
of  other  nice  people.  As  The  Sun  expanded,  we  ran  out 
of  space  in  which  to  set  up  a  pledge  center  and  reluctantly 
closed  it. 

But  that  didn't  stop  George. 
For  the  next  10  years  he  kept  coming  to  The  Sun 
office  around  Labor  Day  with  two  checks  for  $800.  In 
1 999,  he  wasn'  t  feeling  well  but  sent  a  check  for  $  1 ,000. 
At  the  time  of  his  death  the  following  year  his  total 
donated  to  MDA  had  reached  $19,500. 
But  that  wasn't  the  end. 

The  Labor  Day  weekend  after  his 
death,  two  more  checks  for  $800 
arrived. 

One  was  for  $500  from  George's 
brother,  Joe  and  the  latter' s  wife,  Joan 
of  Brockton.  The  other  a  $300  Yellow 
Cab  check  from  Wayne  McCulley, 
George's  long-time  friend  and 
business  associate. 
Sadly,  Joe  died  in  April  of  last  year  but  the  tradition 
continued. 

There  were  two  more  checks  for  $800  that  Labor 
Day  from  Joe's  wife  and  Wayne.  That  brought  the  total 
to  $25,500. 


HAROLD 


JOE 
PARKER 


And  this  Labor  Day,  there  were  two  more  checks  for 
$800,  making  it  $26,300. 

Joan  and  Wayne  want  the  tradition  to  go  on  in 
memory  of  George  and  Joe. 

George  also  gave  generously  to  other  worthy  causes 
but  the  MDA  Telethon  was  special  to  him. 

He  believed  that  every  kid  should  have  the  right  to 
walk,  run,  ride  a  bike  and  take  part  in  sports. 

When  it  came  to  kids,  George  was  as  rough  and 
tough  as  a  marshmellow-a  big-hearted  softy. 

□ 
A  MEMORIAL  MASS  for  Paul  Harold  will  be 
celebrated  Saturday,  at  4  p.m.  at  St.  Ann's  Church, 
Wollaston. 

Paul  died  from  cancer  five  years 
ago  in  August  2002  and  would  have 
been  59  Sept.  5. 

His  political  career  spanned  27  years 
including:  city  councillor,  council 
president,  state  senator  and  Norfolk 
County  Register  of  Deeds.  Many 
believed  he  could  have  been  mayor  if 
he  wanted  it.  He  didn't. 

He  set  the  city  council  at-Large  vote-getting  record 
in  1977  with  a  smashing  21,243  votes.  The  record  still 
stands. 

Paul  was  one  of  Quincy '  s  brightest  all-time  and  most 
popular  political  stars  who  put  people  first. 
He  left  us  much  too  soon.

MORE  MEMORIES  OF  the  peanut  store: 
Jeanne  Reardon,  the  City  Council's  Clerk  of 
Committees,  reports  that  her  aunt, 
Dorothy  Clem,  managed  the  store  from 
1945  to  1949.  And  that  she  places  the 
store  on  the  east  side  of  Hancock  Street 
in  downtown,  across  from  the 
Lincoln's  store. 

She  lived  on  Beebe  Road  and  started 
working  at  the  store  while  her  husband, 
Stanley,  was  in  the  Seabees. 
Now  84,  she  is  widowed  and  living  in  Sunapee,  NH 
and  fondly  remembers  the  store. 

Jeanne's  own  recollection  of  the  store  is  going  there 
with  her  mother  and  father  as  a  youngster. 

"I  vividly  remember  the  countless  number  of  Planters 
Peanut  Man  jars  on  the  shelves,"  she  says. 

Brian  Donovan  of  Quincy  Center  says  he  remembers 
the  store  as  being  near  Rogers  Jewelry.  "On  Friday  and 
Saturday  nights,  Mr.  Peanut  handed  out  free  peanuts." 
Ben  Nichols  of  Plymouth  also  remembers  the  store 
in  that  area  and  Mr.  Peanut  giving  out  bags  of  peanuts. 
It  may  have  been  a  peanut  store,  but  it  left  some  big 
fond,  memories.

35  Teachers  Attend  Special 
Workshop  To  Help  Young  Readers 


II^IIJJJJ7fJJJjy/7Z^//^/////r7777. 


yy^^^y^^y^j^ 


Quincy  teachers  recently 
studied  the  latest  techniques 
for  helping  young  children, 
especially  at-risk  youngsters, 
acquire  basic  literacy  skills, 
thanks  to  a  $20,000  grant 
from  the  Boston  Scientific 
Foundation. 

The  35  kindergarten 
through  Grade  2  teachers 
attended  a  three -day  training 
workshop  which  presented 
innovative  techniques 
developed  by  the 
Multisensory  Training 
Institute  of  Needham  (MTI). 


The  MTI  workshops,  held 
at  Beechwood  Knoll 
Elementary  School  on  Fenno 
Street,  introduced  the 
teachers  to  a  system  of 
"phonemic  awareness,"  as  a 
tool  for  literacy  instruction. 

Phonemic  awareness 
involves  creating  an 
awareness  of  sounds  within 
words  which  are  considered 
a  vital  step  in  developing 
strong  reading  and  spelling 
skills. 

Children  are  taught  to 
"hear,  see  and  feel"  the 


sounds  produced  in  their 
mouth.  The  program's 
developers  believe  that 
sensory  techniques  are  more 
successful  than  memorizing 
"D"  for  Dog. 

"We  are  proud  to  support 
the  Multisensory  Training 
Institute's  irmovative  work 
in  the  area  of  early  childhood 
hteracy  education  training," 
said  Paul  Donovan,  President 
of  Boston  Scientific 
Foimdation. 

Donovan  believes,  "This 


grant  will  help  provide 
teachers  in  Quincy  with  the 
special  tools  they  need  to  get 
at  the  heart  of  the  (illiteracy) 
issue." 

The  MTI  of  the  Stratford 
Foundation  is  a  nonprofit 
educational  foundation 
seeking  to  education  the 
nations  most  at-risk  readers. 

Boston  Scientific  of 
Natick  develops  medical 
devices.  The  company's 
distribution  center  is  located 
in  Quincy.

Scenes  From  Yesterday

THIS  OLD  REAL  photo  postcard  is  a  picture  taken 
at  tlie  Harvard  Aeronautical  Society's  Harvard-Bos- 
ton aviation  meet  that  was  held  at  Atlantic  in  the  first 
week  of  September  in  1910.  The  air  meet  offered  lu- 
crative prizes  to  attract  the  world's  top  aviators  and 
aeroplanes.  The  aircraft  shown  here  was  a  Bleroit 
monoplane  built  by  Frenchman  Louis  Bleroit,  who  a 
year  earlier  became  the  first  man  to  fly  across  the  21- 
mile  English  Channel.  At  the  time  of  the  meet  this 
plane,  the  first  single  winged  plane  seen  in  New  En- 
gland, also  held  the  world's  speed  record  of  66.2  miles 


per  hour.  Claude  Graham- White,  an  Englishman, 
used  this  Bleroit  to  win  the  largest  prize  at  the 
Harvard  Meet  of  $10,000  offered  by  the  Boston  Globe. 
The  Globe 's  challenge  was  to  fly  from  Atlantic  around 
the  State  House  dome  and  twice  out  and  around  Bos- 
ton Light,  a  total  of  33  miles.  Graham-White  was  the 
only  aviator  willing  to  attempt  the  risky  flight  and 
won  what  today  would  be  almost  a  quarter  of  a  mil- 
lion dollars.  He  also  won  most  of  the  other  prizes  at 
the  air  meet.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

He  Would  Add  Members 
To  Licensing,  Zoning  Boards 


I  am  glad  to  see  that  the 
city's  Licensing  Board  has 
changed  the  time  of  its  meet- 
ings from  mornings  to  4  p.m. 
I  agree  with  Police  Chief 
Bob  Crowley  that  the  new 
time  will  give  citizens  "more 
opportunities  and  input  on 
certain  issues." 

Personally,  I  would  like  to 
see  both  the  zoning  and  li- 
censing board  meet  in  the 
evening  rather  than  late  af- 
ternoon, but  4  p.m.  for  the 
Licensing  Board  is  a  good 
starting  point. 

I,  however,  felt  the  bash- 
ing of  Tommy  Koch's  idea  of 


replacing  the  current  licens- 
ing board  with  private  citi- 
zens was  unnecessary  and 
overkill. 

Koch  has  a  right  to 
present  his  ideas  and  reform- 
ing the  structure  and  makeup 
of  the  board  seemed  respon- 
sible to  me.  If  you  disagree, 
as  a  letter  written  by  Robert 
H.  Smith  did  (Letters,  Aug. 
16),  you  can  present  your 
countering  opinion,  but  most 
of  Smith's  letter  was  nothing 
more  than  an  ad  hominem 
attack  on  Tom  Koch  rather 
than  a  real  discussion  of  the 
issue. 


Koch's  ideas  weren't 
"senseless  proposals."  What 
was  senseless  is  dirty  poli- 
tics, tactics  unbecoming  of  a 
positive  outlook  on  politics, 
government  and  the  upcom- 
ing mayoral  race. 

Mr.  Smith,  like  Tom 
Koch,  has  a  right  to  his  opin- 
ion. 

Personally,  I  have  my 
own  ideas  for  the  Licensing 
Board  (and  by  extension  the 
Zoning  Board).  All  the  cur- 
rent city  employees  on  both 
boards  should  stay.  I  would 
however  add  three  more 


members  to  both  boards. 
Community  activists  would 
fill  these  seats. 

Just  because  we  have  de- 
partment heads  on  a  city 
board  doesn't  always  mean 
they  have  sensible  reasons 
for  their  vote  on  matters  pre- 
sented before  them,  anymore 
than  private  citizens  would 
be  incapable  of  making  sen- 
sible decisions. 

I  say  enlarge  these  impor- 
tant city  boards  by  adding 
real  people  from  the  commu- 
nity on  them.

Questions  Organization  Of  Babe  Ruth  In  Quincy 


I  speak  for  other  parents 
when  I  say:  Why  when  the 
Babe  Ruth  sea.son  started  in 
March  were  the  final  games 
held  the  third  week  in  Au- 
gust? By  the  third  week  in 
August  most  families  are  on 
vacation,  the  boys  are  think- 
ing about  football  and  double 
sessions  start  next  week. 

Why  were  the  final  games 
so  late  this  year?  There  were 
approximately  25  people  in 
the  stands  for  these  final 
games.  A  few  years  ago 
when  the  games  were  held  in 
July  the  stands  were  full. 

Why  if  the  boys,  the 
coaches  and  their  families 
put  all  the  time  and  effort 
into  Babe  Ruth  is  there  no 
reward  at  the  end?  Why 
aren't  there  trophies  or  at 
least  a  T-shirt,  anything  to 
indicate  that  your  team  won? 

The  15-year-olds,  who 


worked  for  three  years  to  get 
to  be  starters,  get  nothing, 
except  "Give  me  your  shirt 
( right  off  your  back )"  and  are 
sent  on  their  way.  The  play- 
offs started  in  June  and  six 
weeks  later  resumed.  Why? 
Also  there  was  no  "A" 


travel  team  this  summer.  The 
two  "B"  Quincy  teams  beat 
everyone  except  each  other 
so  soundly  that  it  was  embar- 
rassing. Yet  the  players  that 
signed  up  for  those  teams 
showed  up  every  game.

TEACHERS  STARTING  SCHOOL  ON  SOUR  NOTE 

For  the  second  year  in  a  row,  Quincy  teachers  are  starting 
school  on  a  sour  note.  Teachers  voted  Tuesday  to  "work  to

contract  until  they  receive  last  year's  raises. 

The  l,(K)0  member  QEA,  like  all  school  employees,

the  Boston  Belle,  his  charter 
boat  for  private  parties  of  up 
to  60  persons.  The  Boston 
Belle  docks  at  Marina  Bay. 

On  the  tour,  youngsters 
view  the  harbor  islands,  learn 
about  the  ocean  and  are 
quizzed  on  the  subjects.

launched  a  new  walking  pro- 
gram at  Beechwood,"  said 
Maryann  Mahony,  the  coor- 
dinator of  the  Beechwood 
Senior  Center. 

"We  have  a  number  of 
walkers  who  walk  a  vigorous 
three  miles  a  day,  two  days  a 
week.  Our  new  walkers  will 
be  counting  steps,  not  miles. 

"We  call  the  new  walkers 
"Step  Walkers"  because  we 
hope  to  see  folks  improve 
their  fitness  and  health  'one 
step  at  a  time.'" 


The  new  Beechwood

The  more  than  MO  retro  outfits,  designed 
and  prepared  by  the  students  themselves, 
rellected  the  looks  of  the  l^)5()s  through 
I  ')S()s  to  a  background  of  the  music  of  the 
period. 

Appeti/ers  and  desserts  were  prepared 
by  Culinary  Arts  students. 

Mrs,  Mirick  am!  her  students  started  the 
Iashion  Club  three  years  ago  to  give  the 
students  a  chance  to  showcase  their  designs 
and  take  part  in  an  after-school  activity. 

"When  students  get  involved  with  their 
school  community  it  is  a  win  win  situa- 
tion," said  Mrs.  Mirick.  Current  lash- 
ion  Club  officers  include:  Danielle  Millan, 
president;  Ashley  hooks,  vice  president;

Granite  Industry 


(Cont'd  From  Page  3) 

already,  most  of  them  on  loan 
or  copied  from  those  at  the 
Thomas  Crane  Library,  the 
Qiiincy  Historical  Society, 
historian  Tom  Galvin  and  the 
collections  of  just  plain 
folks. 

"I  have  created  a  web  site 
on  the  Quincy  quarries,""  said 
Greene.  "'The  information 
and  pictures  are  scattered 
around  now.  We're  trying  to 
bring  them  together  in  one 
spot. 

'The  documentary  will  be 
modeled  after  Ken  Burns' 
'Civil  War.'  He  has  given  us 
some  advice  through  his  sec- 
retary. The  object  will  be  to 
personalize  the  statistics,  to 
pull  out  who  the  characters 
were  and  make  them  part  of 
the  story." 

While  the  documentary 
will  be  built  around 
Swingle's  Quarries  (he  once 
owned  four  of  them)  and  the 
Swingle  family,  Greene  said 
other  aspects  of  the  granite 
industry  in  Quincy  and  the 
first  commercial  railroad  will 
not  be  ignored. 

Greene,  who  grew  up 
within  hailing  distance  of  the 


quarries  in  West  Quincy, 
said  Quincy  Access  TV,  the 
city's  cable  system,  has 
shown  an  interest  in  airing 
the  documentary.  He  has 
taken  classes  in  production  at 
the  cable  studio. 

Jo  Anne  Swingle 
Hennigan,  who  lives  at  1000 
Southern  Artery,  unveiled 
the  Granite  Ga/ing  Ball  in 
June,  2006,  when  it  was  re- 
turned to  its  place  in  front  of 
City  Hall  after  a  69  year  so- 
journ at  the  Fore  River  Traf- 
fic Circle. 

Her  aunt,  Maxine,  the 
daughter  of  J.  S.  Swingle, 
presided  over  the  original 
dedication  of  the  Ball  in 
1925  after  it  was  cut  from  a 
25-ton  block  of  rough  stone 
from  Swingle's  Quarry  and 
gifted  to  the  city  by  the 
Quincy  Granite  Manufactur- 
ers Association. 

J.  S.  died  in  1929  and  the 
granite  industry  in  Quincy 
survived  him  by  40  years. 
Swingle's  was  the  last  active 
quarry  when  it  was  closed  in 
1969. 

Now  his  granddaughter 
wants  to  bring  it  back  again 
—  in  memory,  at  least.

FIRE   SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Frevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Faxon  Park  Fires 


When  I  drive  around  the 
South  Shore,  1  can't  help  but 
notice  how  low  the  water 
level  is  in  many  ot  the  local 
ponds.  It's  an  indication,  of 
course,  at  how  little  rain  has 
fallen  lately,  it  can  make  for 
great  sunny  beach  weather, 
but  raise  havoc  in  other  ar- 
eas. 

One  such  area  is  Faxon 
Park  in  Quincy.  There  are 
years  of  accumulated,  deep- 
rooted  combustible  peat  and 
vegetative  material  through- 
out the  park  while  all  of  it  at 
present  is  tinder  dry.  Conse- 
quently, there  have  been  fre- 
quent fires  at  this  location 
lately.  Our  efforts  could  ap- 
pear fruitless,  while  I'm  here 
to  convey  that  they  iire  not. 

With  any  outside  fire,  our 
immediate  concern  is  expo- 
sures, structures,  homes  and 
garages  adjacent  to  the  park. 
Deep-seated  smoldering,  as 
much  as  it  is  a  nuisance,  is  a 
secondary  concern,  while  I'll 
discuss  it  here  later  in  this 
iulicle. 

To  protect  exposures  the 
most  effective  access  must 


be  determined  upon  size  up 
of  the  incident.  Typically  this 
takes  place  along  the  perim- 
eter roadways  to  the  park. 
Once  determined  a  commit- 
ment is  made  and  hose  lines 
are  extended  to  place  water 
on  the  fire,  protecting  expo- 
sures. Once  again  this  is  our 
immediate  concern,  to  mini- 
mize potential  loss  of  valu- 
able property. 

There  is  another  issue, 
that  being  the  problem  of 
nuisance  smoke  and  odor 
from  deep-seated  smoldering 
fires  further  in  the  park  in 
areas  previously  burnt. 

They  present  less  of  a  fire 
hazard  to  exposures  where 
there  is  little  vegetation  on 
the  surface  to  facilitate  hori- 
zontal fire  spread.  However, 
that's  not  to  say  the  fire  can't 
bum  further  downward  into 
years  of  accumulated  peat 
and  humus.  That's  much  of 
what  we  are  experiencing  in 
the  park  at  present,  fire  mi- 
grating downward.  It  causes 
smoke  and  its  odors  while 
causing  fewer  hazards  as 
long  as  there  are  no  immedi- 


ate combustible  surface  ex- 
posures to  travel  horizon- 
tally. 

Combating  access  ob- 
structions and  limitations, 
the  fire  companies  have  done 
their  best  to  minimize  those 
nuisance  deep-seated  fires. 
Blitz  guns  and  ladder  pipes, 
pumping  up  to  250  gallons 
per  minute  of  water  have 
been  used  to  soak  those  ar- 
eas. However,  only  a  sub- 
stantial continuous  drench- 
ing rain  can  alleviate  this 
nuisance  once  and  for  all. 

Dragging  heavy  hose 
lines  filled  with  water,  con- 
tinuously adding  line  to  ex- 
tend further  into  the  park 
while  circumventing  the  ob- 
stacles of  trees,  rocks  and 
debris,  firefighters  attempt  to 
minimize  that  nuisance 
smoke  and  odor  while  soak- 
ing the  areas  as  best  they  can. 

Sadly,  it's  the  best  band 
aid  approach  we  now  have 
until  nature  can  saturate  the 
depth  below  the  surface  in- 
troducing moisture  back  into 
the  ground  once  again. 

Pray  for  rain !

Stephen  Moynihan  Named 
To  Union  Health  Group 


Shannon  Linde  Elected 
To  MassAHU  Board 


Stephen  Moynihan,  presi- 
dent of  the  Quincy  Retiree 
Association  (QRA),  has  been 
named  to  represent  retired 
city  employees  if  the  city 
decides  to  join  the  state  em- 
ployees" health  plan. 

Elections  among  the  vari- 
ous unions  of  city  workers 
are  scheduled  to  take  place 
in  September  to  determine 
whether  the  city  will  adopt 
"coalition  bargaining"  to  ne- 
gotiate health  plans. 

The  vote  will  consist  of 
W  per  cent  participation  by 
active  employees  and  a  10 
per  cent  vote  for  retirees.  The 
city  needs  a  positive  vote  of 
70  per  cent  to  adopt  coalition 
bargaining. 


STEPHEN  MOYNIHAN 

This  means  that  the  city's 
contribution  to  the  employ- 
ees' health  plans  will  be 
taken  off  the  bargaining 
tables  of  the  individual 
unions  and  negotiated  sepa- 


rately by  a  Public  Employ- 
ees Committee  (PEC). 

Then  a  vote  will  be  taken 
on  whether  or  not  to  join  the 
state's  Group  Insurance 
Commission  (GIC),  which 
offers  a  menu  of  plans  irom 
which  to  choose. 

Moynihan  was  chosen  to 
be  the  Quincy  retiree's  des- 
ignee on  the  PEC  by  the  Re 
tired  State.  County  and  Mu- 
nicipal Employees  Associa- 
ti(Mi  (A'  Massachusetts. 

Since  his  retirement  from 
the  Quincy  Public  School 
System  in  1991,  he  has  been

MEMA  Safety  Tips  For 
Hurricane  Power  Outages 


I'owlm  outages  aflecl 
nearly  every  aspect  ol  home 
and  business  lite  so  advance 
preparation  is  the  only  sure 
sale  way  to  protect  people, 
properly,  and  pets,  according 
to  Ken  McHriile,  the  Acting 
Director  ol  Massachusetts 
I'liiergency  Management 
Agency  (Mi-MA). 

■■  The  severe  winds 
e\|H'rienced  during 

hurricanes  and  tr()pical 
storms  have  the  potential  to 
cause  power  outages 
through-out  the 

("onimonwealth,"  warns 
McBride,  adding,  "Strong 
v\inds  have  the  capability  to 
topple  utility  poles  and  snap 
tree  limbs  causing  them  to 
fall  on  power  lines  and  disrupt 
electrical  service." 

McHride  recommends 
seven  safety  tips  lor  residents 
at  risk  of  power  outages, 
particularly  during  hurricane 
and  tropical  storm  season. 

•  lie  careful  when  going 
outside  after  a  storm  as  trees 


or  debris  can  hide  downed  or 
hanging  electric  wires  and 
could  be  live  and  dangerous. 

•  Never  attempt  to  touch 
or  move  downed  lines  and 
keep  children  and  pets  away 
from  them.  Always  assume  a 
dow  neil  line  is  a  li\e  line  and 
ilo  not  touch  anything  that  a 
power  line  is  touching,  such 
as  ti  tree  branch  or  fence. 

•  Check  llashlights  and 
portable  radios  to  ensure  that 
they  are  working.  The  radio 
is  an  important  source  of 
weather  and  emergency 
information  during  a  storm. 
Stock  up  on  batteries. 

•  Well-water  pump 
systems  operated  by 
electricity  will  shut  down  and 
residents  should  have  a  ready 
source  of  spare  water. 
MIIMA  recommends  filling 
the  bathtub  and  spare 
containers  with  water  but 
warns  that  bathtub  water 
should  only  be  used  for 
sanitation  purposes,  not  as 
drinking  water. 


•  Set  the  refrigerator  and 
free/er  to  the  coldest  settings 
prior  to  the  storm  and  do  not 
open  either  door 
unnecessarily  during  the 
outage,  f^ood  can  stay  cold  in 
a  full  refrigerator  for  up  to  24 
hours  and  in  a  we  1 1 -packed 
free/er  for  48  hours  or  half 
that  time  if  it  is  half-packed. 

•  Check  with  your 
pharmacist  for  guidance  on 
the  proper  storage  of 
medication  during  an 
extended  outage. 

•  Unplug  all  electronic 
equipment,  such  as 
televisions,  stereos,  VCR, 
microwave  ovens, 
computers,  cordless 
telephones,  answering 
machines  and  garage  door 
openers.  Voltage 
irregularities  and  power 
surges  after  the  outage  can 
damage  your  equipment. 
Residents  should  review  the 
process  for  manually 
operating  an  electric  garage 
door. 


Police  Union  Head 
Taking  Chief  To  Court 


{C(>iil\t  I- rum  f'iii;t'  .^j 

the  cruiser  and  drive  off  be- 
fore stopping  him  and  citing 
O'Brien  for  driving  without 
a  license. 

O'Brien,  whose  license 
expired  in  hebruary.  was  sus- 
pended without  pay  for  five 
days.  He  has  since  renewed 
his  licen.se,  served  his  sus- 
pension and  returned  to 
work. 

Chief  Crowlev  and  the 


patn)lmen  have  been  at  log- 
gerheads since  last  fall  when 
the  union  took  a  "no  confi- 
dence" vote  in  the  chief  and 
has  repeatedly  called  for  his 
ouster. 

Last  March,  the  City 
Council  passed  a  resolution 
recommending  that  Crowley 
give  full  cruiser  coverage  to 
all  of  the  city's  13  districts, 
24  hours  a  day,  seven  days  a 
week.  The  suggestion  was 
ignored. 


Tait  and  Councillor 
Daniel  Raymondi  criticized 
Crowley  for  returning  $1.8 
million  to  the  city  treasury 
over  the  past  two  years  in- 
stead of  using  it  for  staffing. 

Only  last  June,  the  union 
sought  expedited  arbitration 
of  its  complaint  against 
Crowley  for  directing  that 
officers  could  not  take  vaca- 
tions a  day  at  a  time  unless  it 
falls  within  their  vacation 
periods.

ways  to  sa\ e  money  and  stay 
comfortable.  According  to 
the  I  'nited  States  Department 
of  Hnergy  ( DOH),  almost  half 
the  energy  used  in  the  a\  erage 
home  is  for  heating  and 
cooling.  Homeowners  should 
learn  about  their  heating, 
ventilation  and  air- 
conditioning  (HVAC) 
system  and  its  effect  on  your 
heating  bills  and  comfort 
level.  ^ 

A  program  de\eloped  by 
the  U.S.  Environmental 
Protection  Agency  called 
ENERGY  STAR  offers 
helpful  tips  for  saving  money 
on  utility  bills  by  using 
energy-efficient  products  and 
practices.  These  suggestions 
can  help  you  keep  your  home 
safe  and  comfortable  while 
I  educing  your  energy  costs 
at  the  same  time. 

•  Change  the  air  filter 
regularly  -  a  didy  filter  will 
make   the   whole   system 


worker  harder.  Ei  Iters  should 
be  changed  at  least  every 
three  months  in  cold  weather 
or  sooner  if  needed. 

•  Get  your  HVAC 
equipment  a  checkup  - 
consider  an  inspection  by  a 
qualified  HVAC  contractor 
to  make  sure  e\  erylhing  is  in 
proper  working  condition. 

•  Install  a  programmable 
thermostat  -  the  average 
home  can  save  $150  a  year 
by  using  preprogrammed 
settings  when  your  family  is 
away  from  home. 

•  Make  sure  your  ducts 
are  leakproof  and  connected 
-  proper  sealing  and 
insulation  around  ductwork 
can  improve  efficiency  and 
save  up  lo  20  percent  on  your 
utility  bills. 

•  Consider  installing 
ENERGY  STAR  heating 
equipment  -  systems  inore 
than  10  years  old  are  often 
not  efficient  and  can  be

Gutro  Seeks  Examination 
Of  City  Noise  Ordinances 


If  you  think  it '  s  been  pretty 
noisy  out  there  in  Quincy's 
neighborhoods  this  summer 
you  may  be  right  and  City 
Council  President  Doug 
Gutro  wants  to  find  out  for 
sure. 

He  introduced  a  resolu- 
tion Tuesday  night  calling 
on  the  Council  to  review  city- 
wide  noise  complaints  and 
make  recommendations  to 
strengthen  the  city  noise  or- 
dinances. 

"I  don't  know  how  long  it 
has  been  since  we  last  up- 


dated them."  he  said.  "New 
York  City  just  made  its  first 
changes  in  30  years.  We  must 
have  been  just  as  long." 

Gutro' s  resolution  asks 
the  Council's  Public  Health 
and  Environment  Commit- 
tee to  hold  hearings  to  dis- 
cern the  extent  of  neighbor- 
hood noise  complaints. 

He  would  like  to  see  the 
committee  review  the  laws 
in  other  communities,  espe- 
cially the  newly  enacted  New 
York  Noise  Code,  to  see  if 
they  could  be  applied  to 
Quincy. 


"It's  high  lime  that  ue 
take  a  look  at  our  noise  ordi- 
nances to  make  sure  that  they 
account  for  the  e\i>l\nig 
sources  oi  urban  noise  that 
directly  impact  the  quality  oi 
life  in  our  city's  neighbor- 
hoods and  business  districts," 
he  said. 

"Whether  it  is  encroach- 
ing development,  construc- 
tion vehicles,  nightlife,  or  air 
conditioning  units,  it  be- 
hooves us  to  look  at  what 
other  communities  are  doing 
to  reduce  noise  pollution."

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Thursday,  Aug.  23,  at  approximately  1 1  a.m..  Officers 
Matt  Tobin  and  Kevin  DiMattio  were  dispatched  to  133 
Hancock  St.  on  an  anonymous  telephone  call  of  two  males  steal- 
ing copper  materials  from  the  roof  of  the  building.  The  caller 
said  he/she  lived  in  the  area  and  could  clearly  see  the  men  on 
the  roof,  but  did  not  want  to  get 
involved. 

Officer  Tobin  knew  the 
building  was  vacant  and  this 
helped  support  the  anonymous 
caller's  information. 

As  Officer  Tobin  entered 
the  parking  lot,  he  kept  an  eye 
skyward  and  saw  a  male  lean- 
ing over  the  edge  of  the  roof, 
using  a  measuring  tape  against 
the  side  of  the  building.  The 
officer  asked  the  male  what  he 

was  doing  on  the  roof  and  he  responded  that  "George"  from 
the  Realty  Company  asked  for  an  estimate  for  a  leaky  roof. 
Officer  Tobin  jotted  down  the  pick-up  truck  license  plate 

parked  on  the  sidewalk  adjacent 
to  the  building.  There  w  as  a  lad- 
der next  to  the  truck,  leading  up 
to  the  roof.  Officer  Tobin,  now 
joined  by  Officer  DiMattio,  told 
the  males  to  come  down  from 
the  roof. 

As  Officer  DiMattio 
checked  out  the  identification  of 
the  males.  Communications  at- 
tempted to  call  the  Realty  Com- 
pany, which  was  picked  up  by 
an  answering  machine.  Officer 
Tobin  climbed  up  the  ladder  and  on  to  the  roof,  where  he  ob- 
served tin  snips  and  a  tool  used  for  prying  next  to  the  copper 
sheeting.  One  of  the  males  came  up  to  the  rooftop  to  explain 
what  they  were  doing,  adding  that  he  owned  his  own  roofing 
company. 

Officer  Tobin  walked  over  to  a  secluded  area  of  the  rooftop 
and  noted  that  20-25  feet  of  copper  was  hidden  behind  a  wall, 
which  seemed  suspicious,  since  the  males  said  they  were  there 
to  provide  an  estimate.  The  male  said  he  moved  it  there  so  it 
would  be  out  of  the  way,  which  didn't  make  sense  to  the  of- 
ficer because  there  was  ample  room  on  the  rooftop. 

The  officer  and  the  male  climbed  back  down  to  the  ground 
and  were  met  by  "George"  from  the  Realty  Company.  He  said 
he  received  the  message  that  there  might  be  a  problem  on  the 
property.  He  told  the  officers  he  did  not  contract  anyone  to 
perform  any  work  on  the  building  and  no  one  else  is  autho- 
rized. 

Based  on  his  statements.  Officer  Tobin  placed  both  males 
under  arrest  for  larceny  from  a  building,  possession  of  bur- 
glarious tools  and  malicious  destruction  to  property.  As  the 
handcuffs  went  on  one  of  the  suspects,  he  apologized  and  said, 
"I'm  sorry  1  did  that.  I  should  have  just  told  you  the  truth  from 
the  beginning.: 

To  make  matters  worse  for  the  suspect/owner  of  the  truck. 
Communications  informed  the  officers  that  the  truck  was  un- 
registered and  uninsured,  which  led  to  it  being  towed.  Sgt.  Igo 
arrived  on  scene  and  took  photos  of  the  crime  scene,  which 
was  then  placed  into  evidence. 

The  suspects,  28  years  old  and  26  years  old,  from  Weymouth, 
were  transported  to  the  station  for  booking 
Nice  work! 

The  officers  diligence  was  the  key  to  making  the  arrest.  To 
the  average  eye,  all  the  pieces  would  seem  to  fit  in,  such  as  a 
vacant  building,  roofers  with  a  pick-up  truck  and  provi'ding  the 
first  name  of  the  representative  from  the  Realty  Company. 

In  this  case,  even  though  the  caller  did  not  want  to  get  in- 
volved, he/she  saw  a  crime  being  committed  and  notified  the 
police.  The  caller  directed  the  police  to  the  crime  scene  and 
once  there,  the  officers  were  able  to  corroborate  the  anony- 
mous caller's  information  and  further  the  investigation. 

J 
BIKES  STOLEN:  Since  the  beginning  of  May,  there  have 
been  43  reports  of  stolen  bicycles  in  Quincy.  These  are  just  the 
reported  incidents  and  in  many  cases  there  have  been  more 
than  one  bike  taken. 

One  of  the  hardest  hit  areas  of  the  city  this  past  month  has 
been  in  the  WoUaston  area.  All  cases  involve  bicycles  that  are 
not  locked  and  most  have  been  taken  from  the  front  yard  or  an 
area  visible  from  the  street.  The  thieves  most  likely  are  looking 
for  quick  transportation  or  are  chopping  up  the  bikes  and  mak- 
ing another  bike  out  of  parts,  then  selling  or  giving  them  away. 
Be  sure  to  lock  your  bikes  with  a  solid  lock  and  chain,  at- 
tached to  something  solid,  like  a  telephone  pole.  Police  offic- 
ers have  been  able  to  identify  suspects  living  on  Fenno  Street 
and  Waterston  Avenue  and  we  are  working  hard  to  catch  the 
thieves. 

If  you  see  someone  who  does  not  belong  on  your  street  or  is 
acting  suspicious,  please  call  us,  like  the  person  in  the  above 
story,  so  that  we  can  investigate  before  a  crime  occurs.

Double-Header  At  Veterans  Memorial  Stadium 

Red  Raiders,  Presidents 
Kick-Off  Season 
At  Home  Friday 


North  Quincy,  Quincy 
2007  Football  Schedules 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  2007  high  school 
football  season  gets 
underway  tomorrow 

(Friday)  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  with  a 
double  dose  of  pigskin 
action. 

The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raiders  kick-off  their  season 
with  a  home  tilt  against 
Somerville  High  School  at 
4:30  p.m.  and  the  Quincy 
Presidents  host  Canton  High 
School  under  the  lights  at 
7:30  p.m.  in  the  nightcap. 

Admittance  to  both  games 
will  be  a  one-time  purchase, 
giving  fans  the  chance  to  see 
both  high  schools  play  for 
the  price  of  a  single  game 
admission,  said  Athletic 
Director  Jim  Rendle. 

The  Red  Raiders  lost  to 
Somerville  on  the  road  in 
their  2006  season  opener  28- 
13,  while  the  Presidents 
defeated  Canton  on  the  road 
14-6  in  their  season  opener 
last  fall. 

North  Quincy  is  scheduled 
to  play  six  homes  games  this 
season  (not  including  the 
annual  Thanksgiving  Day 
game  versus  Quincy)  against 
Somerville,  Sandwich, 
Falmouth,  Dennis- 

Yarmouth,  Marshfield  and 
Plymouth  South,  and  Quincy 
will  play  four  home  games 
at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium  against  Canton, 
Plymouth  North,  Whitman- 
Hanson  and  Nauset. 

The  75"  annual 
Thanksgiving  Day  game  on 
November  22  is  scheduled 
for  a  10  a.m.  start  time  and 
the  Quincy  Presidents  will  bo 
the  home  team  this  year. 

Both  high  schools  are 
members  of  the  Atlantic 
Coast  League,  and  the  only 
non-league  games  to  be 
played  by  North  Quincy  in 
2007  are  against  Sonierx  ille 
and  Randolph.  Quincy  is 
scheduled  to  play  just  one 
non-league  game  this  fall, 
and  that  is  their  season 
opener  against  Canton. 
RED  RAIDERS 

The  Red  Raiders  are 
coming  off  a  1  - 1 0  campaign, 
and  a  1-7  record  in  Atlantic 
Coast  League.  Their  season 
ended  with  a  heartbreaking 
10-7  loss  to  Quincy  on 
Thanksgiving.  North 
Quincy's  lone  victory  of 
2006  was  a  32-0  beat  down 
of  Nauset  High  School  on 
October  27. 

North  Quincy  will  need  to 
replace  the  leadership  and 
production  of  all  four  of  its 
captains  from  last  year's 
team.  Shaun  McBrien  (QB/

Incoming  senior  Terrence 
Sibley,  a  team  captain  in 
2006  and  the  Red  Raiders' 
leading  scorer  last  season, 
will  miss  the  season  with  an 
injury. 

Other  graduated  seniors 
from  the  2006  squad  include

The  good  news  for  the 
Red  Raiders  is  that  this 
year's  team  returns  four  of  its 
top  seven  scorers  from  last 
year.  Returning  to  the  field 
will  be  Alex  Tragellis  (three 
receiving  TDs  last  year). 
Danny  Jackson  (two  rushing 
TDs),  Jon  Cahill  (two 
rushing  TDs)  and  Dennis 
Martin  (one  receiving  TD).

recognized  by  the  other 
league  coaches  at  the 
conclusion  of  last  season 
with  the  annual  Atlantic 
Coast  League's  Team 
Sportsmanship  Award. 

Second-year  head  coach 
Jim  Connor  and  his  staff  will 
look  to  improve  on  those 
results  this  season.  Their 
goal  is  to  continue  to 
improve  on  the  results  (not 
just  wins  and  losses)  shown 
last  fall. 

"We  are  coming  along  as 
a  program  this  off-season," 
said  Connor.  "But  we  still 
have  a  long  way  to  go  to  get 


to  where  we  want  to  be.  The 
coaching  staff  and  team  are 
still  in  the  process  of  trying 
to  'stop  the  bleeding.'  1  can 
see  the  start  of  our 
improvement  at  every 
practice  and  that  is  the  key 
to  building  a  solid 
foundation.  We  are  looking 
to  get  North  Quincy  football 
back  to  a  winnmg  tradition"

Red  Raiders,  Presidents  Kick-Off  Season  Friday 


games  finally  get  underway 
and  C\>nnor  has  no  problem 
turning  over  the  keys  to  the 
program  to  this  group  of 
players. 

"This  year's  team  is 
driven  by  a  core  group  oi 
seniors.  Most  of  them  have 
been  playing  football  (and 
other  sports)  together  for  the 
last  three  years  and  that  helps 
not  only  the  team  but  also  the 
coaching  staff.  We  should 
have  a  valuable  stable  of 
seniors  at  our  skill 
positions." 

Replacing  Shaun  McBrien 
at  quarterback  will  be  senior 
Dennis  Martin.  Martin 
should  receive  plenty  of 
support  from  fellow  12'" 
graders  Jon  Cahill.  Ale.x 
Tragellis  and  Dave  Thomson 
as  the  Red  Raiders  look  to 
rack  up  the  wins  this  fall. 

One  bonus  for  North 
Quincy  in  2001  will  be  their 
schedule.  Last  fall,  the  Red 
Raiders  (and  the  Presidents) 
were  forced  to  play  four 


straight  games  on  the  road 
because  of  the  unfinished 
renovations  to  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  and  the 
threat  of  Hastern  FAjuine 
Hncephalitis  (EEF)  and  West 
Nile  Virus  in  southern 
Massachusetts.  This  season 
the  Red  Raiders  play  three 
out  i>f  their  first  five  games 
at  the  friendly  confines  of  the 
Vet. 

"Absolutely  it  is  to  our 
adviintage  to  get  to  play  more 
games  at  home  this  year.  The 
Atlantic  Coast  League  is 
tough  enough  as  is.  but  the 
schedule  can  be  brutal  for 
Quincy  and  us.  It  tiikes  a  lot 
out  of  the  teams  when  you 
have  to  travel  down  to  the 
Cape  for  a  Friday  night 
game.  The  new  field  and 
renovations  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  are 
tremendous  and  hopefully 
the  home  crowds  will  work 
in  our  favor." 

PRESIDENTS 

The  Presidents  finished 
last  season  with  a  3-7  overall 


record,  and  a  2-7  record  in 
Atlantic  Coast  League  play. 
Quincy's  three  wins  came 
over  Canton  (14-6).  Nauset 
(34-7)  and  North  Quincy 
(10-7).  Their  10-7  win  on 
Turkey  Day  extended  the 
team's  winning  streak  on 
Thanksgiving  to  a  record 
eight  straight  yeiu^s. 

This  fall.  Quincy  will  be 
looking  to  replace  the 
production  of  its  graduated 
senior  class,  including  the 
solid  production  of  last 
year's  five  senior  captains. 
Matt  Boyle  (QB),  Jim 
Aikens  (WR/DB).  Tom 
Ha/.elhurst  (RB/LB). 
Charles  McGee  (RB/LB) 
and  Camillo  Arredondo  (RB/ 
LB.  1'  team  ACL  post- 
season selection). 

Other  seniors  who  will  be 
missed  include  Jared  Tucker. 
Wilson  Araujo.  Anthony 
Williams,  Anthony  Gilbody, 
Josh  Berrv.  Pat  Austin.  Alex 


Domingo.  Steve  Kussman, 
Mark  Cugini.  James  Fay. 
Steve  Reed.  Alex  Chan  (he 
of  the  winning  TD  catch  last 
Thanksgiving)  and  Craig 
Reynolds. 

The  team  will  return  two 
of  its  top  six  scoring  leaders 
from  "06.  including  junior 
Mark  Gilbody  (two  rushing 
TDs)  and  Diego  Arredondo 
(one  rushing  TD). 

Head  coach  Bob  Noble, 
who  is  entering  his  ninth 
season  on  the  sidelines,  and 
his  staff  will  be  looking  to 
guide  Quincy  to  its  fifth 
winning  season  in  the  last 
seven  years.  Noble's  outlook 
for  the  upcoming  season  is 
positive,  mostly  because  of 
the  returning  depth  and 
experience  his  team  should 
posses  when  their  schedule 
kicks  off  tomorrow  night. 

"We  (the  coaching  stafO 
have  a  positive  outlook  for 
this  season,"  said  Noble  last 


week.  "This  year's  team 
returns  a  handful  of 
underclassmen,  who  are  now 
seniors,  and  who  played 
considerable  minutes  last 
season.  And  that  game 
experience  from  a  number  of 
players  should  be  a  plus.  One 
of  our  strongest  positions  on 
the  field  will  be  our  offensive 
line.  We  return  four  of  our 
five  starters  from  last  year's 
team  with  Mark  Cugini 
being  the  only  offensive 
lineman  to  graduate  last 
spring." 

The  Presidents  will  need 
to  reload  at  quarterback  and 
at  the  other  offensive  skill 
positions  (running  back  and 
wide  receiver),  but  Noble  has 
liked  what  he  has  seen  from 
these  positions  so  far  in  the 
preseason  and  he  sees  a 
possible  rotation  of  any 
number  of  players  at  the 
running  back,  quarterback 
and  wide  receiver  spots. 


"All  pre.season  there  has 
been  battles  at  all  three  skill 
positions.  At  wide  receiver, 
we  could  have  anywhere 
from  four  to  five  players 
seeing  considerable  action. 
At  running  back,  junior  Max 
Devoe  and  Tim  Lewis  can  be 
a  two-headed  attack.  And  at 
the  quarterback  position, 
junior  Mark  Gilbody  and 
sophomore  Lance  Peterson 
both  bring  different 
attributes  and  different  looks, 
so  we  might  play  both  of 
them." 

Tomorrow  night  starts  yet 
another  season  of  high 
school  football  in  the  City  of 
Quincy.  And  the  slate  has 
been  wiped  clean  for  both  the 
North  Quincy  Red  Raiders 
and  the  Quincy  Presidents 
football  programs.  The  most 
wonderful  time  of  the  year  is 
upon  us  sports  fans. 

Are  you  ready  for  some 
football?

Fal  May  Come 
Off  Before 
Pounds  Do 

Q,  I  started  an  exercise 
•  pnigram  atxmt  two 
months  ago.  I  am  about  50 
pounds  overweight.  I  go  to 
the  gym  five  times  a  week 
and  do  Mt  minutes  of 
strength  training  and 
about  45  minutes  of  car- 
dio.  I  drink  8-10  glasses  of 
water  a  day,  and  I  include 
lots  of  fruits  and  vegeta- 
bles in  my  diet. 

My  problem  is  I  haven"! 
lost  a  pound.  I  do  feel  bet- 
ter, and  some  of  my  clothes 
siH>m  to  be  a  bit  l(K>.ser,  but 
I  am  becoming  very  dis- 
couraged. I  expected  more 
suctx'ss  after  two  months. 
What  am  I  doing  wn»ng? 
—  Maria  P. 

A,  Based  on  the  infor- 
•  mation  given  in  your 
letter,  it  seems  you  have  all 
of  the  components  in  place 
to  reach  your  goals.  Aerobic 
and  strength  training  part- 
nered with  proper  nutrition 
are  definitely  keys  to  a  suc- 
cessful fitness  program  and 
for  seeing  results. 

Your  concern  is  with  los- 
ing "pounds,"  but  that  is  a 
poor  way  to  track  your  ini- 
tial progress.  A  scale  only 
tells  how  much  something 
weighs;  it  does  not  know  the 
difference  between  a  person 
and  a  sack  of  potatoes. 

When  you  embark  on  a  fit- 
ness program  that  includes 
aerobic  exercise  and 
strength  training,  your  body 
will  begin  to  change,  but 
your  weight  may  not.  The 
added    muscle    mass    you 


develop  a.s  a  result  of 
strength  training  will  lower 
your  Ixxly  fat,  but  might  not 
make  the  scale  move,  due  to 
the  density  of  muscle.  As 
your  clothes  get  nmre  com- 
fortable, you'll  know  your 
Ixxly  is  changing  for  the  bet- 
ter, llie  loss  of  pounds  will 
follow. 

Remember  to  stay  consis- 
tent with  your  fitness  pro- 
gram, and  if  possible,  meet 
with  a  fitness  or  medical 
professional.  Me  or  she  can 
g()  over  yi>ur  complete  pro- 
gram, conduct  a  b(xiy  com- 
{X)sition  analysis  and  offer 
suggestions  as  to  the  inten- 
sity and  prt)gression  of  your 
program. 

When  designing  a  fitness 
progriun,  it  is  irn}X)rtant  to 
set  more  than  one  goal. 
F-eeling  tx.-ttcr  and  sleeping 
better  are  wonderful  goals 
to  .set.  Climbing  a  flight  of 
stairs  without  getting  wind- 
ed and  losing  a  dress  size  are 
other  realistic  goals.  Con- 
tinue to  work  hard  and  don't 
become  discouraged.  Give 
yourself  time  to  see  change 
and  know  that  all  of  your 
hard  work  is  paying  off. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

SEALING  TEETH'S  FATE 

Parents  are  urged  to  have      simple  and  painless  process. 


L 


their  children  visit  the  den- 
tist within  si.\  months  of  get- 
ting their  first  teeth  and  no 
later  than  their  first  birth- 
days. Early  examinations 
are  important  for  introduc- 
ing parents  and  children  to 
gmxJ  hygiene  habits,  as  well 
as  for  detecting  decay.  Ev- 
eryone, including  young 
children,  need  to  floss  be- 
cause there  is  a  buildup  of 
bacteria-laden       plaque 
around  each  tooth  every  24 
hours.  Another  very  effec- 
tive means  of  preventing 
tooth  decay  involves  coating 
the  chewing  surfaces  of  the 
back  teeth  with  a  plastic 
resin  known  as  a  "sealant." 
The  six-year  molars  are  usu- 
ally the  first  to  be  treated 
with  sealants,  but  any  tooth 
with  a  food-trapping  fissure 
or  groove  is  a  good  candi- 
date for  sealant. 

Applying  the  sealant  is  a 


Sealants  can  protect  the  teeth 
from  decay  for  up  to  10 
years,  but  they  need  to  be 
checked  for  chipping  or 
wearing  at  regular  check- 
ups. We  would  like  to  in- 
crease dental  awareness  and 
stress  the  importance  of  regu- 
lar dental  care.  We  stress  pre- 
ventive  dentistry  for  the 
whole  family.  Remember 
that  nothing  is  more  eco- 
nomical than  regular  dental 
checkups.  For  gentle,  com- 
passionate dental  care,  call 
6 1 7-479-6220  to  schedule  an 
appointment.  We're  located 
at  44  Greenleaf  Street.  We 
offer  the  services  of  anesthe- 
siology with  a  fully  trained 
and  quahfied  anesthesiolo- 
gist. Visit  us  on  the  web  at

PS.  There  are  a  number 
of  flossing  aids  that  make  it 
easier  for  children  to  floss 
regularly  aiui  effectively.

Get  New  School 

Year  Off  to 

Healthy  Start 

It's  back-to-school  season, 
which  means  families  are 
busy  with  school  year.  In 
addition  to  stocking  up  on 
school  supplies  and  helping 
your  kids  adjust  to  a  new 
teacher,  now  is  also  an  ideal 
time  to  schedule  your  child's 
annual  health  screenings. 

With  tips  from  Dr.  Pamela 
F.  Gall  in,  a  pediatric  oph- 
thalmologist with  the  Mor- 
gan Stanley  Children's  Hos- 
pital of  New  York-Presby- 
terian and  the  author  of  "The 
Savvy  Mom's  Guide  to 
Medical  Care,"  let's  look  at 
ways  to  give  your  family  a 
healthy  start  to  a  new  school 
year. 

First,  have  your  child's 
vision  screened.  Young  chil- 
dren often  don't  know  if 
their  vision  is  impaire^l,  so  a 
trip  to  the  optometrist  can 
diagnose  any  vision  jwob- 
Icms.  If  your  child  already 
wears  glasses,  make  sure  her 
prescription  is  correct.  Chil- 
dren with  untreated  vision 
problems  can  struggle  in  the 
classnx>m,  so  don't  let  poor 
vision  inhibit  your  child's 
learning. 

On  a  similar  note,  have 
your  child's  hearing  tested. 
If  your  child  is  listening  to 


the  television  especially 
loud,  or  if  he  tends  to  favor 
listening  with  one  ear  over 
the  other,  it  may  be  a  sign  of 
hearing  loss. 

Also,  ensure  that  your  chil- 
dren's immunizations  are 
up-to-date.  If  you  have 
moved,  check  state  immu- 
nization requirements. 
Don't  forget  that  some  states 
are  now  requiring  Hepatitis 
B  immunizations. 

If  your  child  takes  regular 
medication  for  a  chronic 
condition,  make  sure  that  the 
school  is  aware  of  it.  Talk  to 
both  the  school  nurse  and 
your  child's  teacher  about 
any  medication  require- 
ments, and  plan  a  course  of 
action  in  case  of  an  emer- 
gency. 

Finally,  check  with  your 
child's  school  to  make  sure 
that  your  emergency  contact 
numbers  are  on  file  and  up- 
to-date. 

With  these  tips,  the  new 
school  year  can  be  a  healthy 
and  safe  one  for  you  and 
your  family.

in  ancient  Persia,  Greece  and 
Rome.  Trade  routes  took  the 
nectarine  through  Greece, 
where  residents  thought 
nectarine  juice  was  so 
tantalizing  they  called  it  the 
"drink  of  the  gods,"  or 
"nectar."  the  word  from 
which  nectarine  is  derived. 

It's  believed  that  the 
Spaniards  brought  the 
nectarine  to  the  U.S.  in  the 
19"'  century.  The  modern 
nectarine  industry  emerged 
in  California  in  the  1950s 
when  fragile,  older  varieties 
were  crossbred  with  peaches 
to  develop  hardier,  more 
flavorful  fruit  that  could  be 
shipped  commercially. 

Compared  to  peaches, 
nectarines  generally  have 
more  red  color  in  the  skin,  a 
rounder  shape,  smaller  size, 
more  sugars  and  a  much 
higher  density.  They  are 
available  in  both  white  and 
yellow  varieties. 

By  drinking  only  8  ounces 
of  1  GO  percent  nectarine  juice 
a  day,  you'll  get  two  of  the 
five  servings  of  fruit  the 


USDA  recommends.  The 
juice  is  even  sold  near  the 
fresh  fruits  in  your 
supermarket's  produce 
section. 

Nectarine  juice  is 
preferred  by  many  to  orange 
juice  for  several  rea.sons: 

•  It's  less  acidic  than 
ordinary  orange  juice  and  the 
smooth,  light  and  refreshing 
taste  is  easy  to  drink  all  day 
long. 

•  Nectarine  juice  is  high 
in  potassium,  vitamin  C, 
antioxidants  and 
phytonutrients,  rich  in  beta- 
carotene,  fat  free,  cholesterol 
free  and  contains  malic  acid, 
which  helps  mu.scle  function. 

•  What's  more,  it  offers 
less:  An  8-ounce  serving  has 
only  90  calories,  nearly  20 
percent  fewer  than  orange 
juice. 

Called  Sun  Shower  100% 
Pure  Pressed  Nectarine  Juice, 
it  comes  in  12-oz  and  28-oz 
containers  and  in  three 
flavors:  Nectarine,  Nectarine 
Berry  and  Nectarine  Mango.

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  You  might  not  like  the 
sudden  setback  in  your  plans. 
But  keep  that  headstrong  Ari- 
an  temperament  in  check  and 
wait  for  explanations.  Things 
will  begin  to  clear  up  by 
week's  end. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Enjoy  the  respite  fixjm 
your  recent  hectic  schedule, 
but  be  ready  to  plimge  into  a 
new  round  of  social  activi- 
ties. A  new  contact  holds 
much  potential  for  the  future. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  A  trusted  colleague  has 
news  that  could  change  your 
perception  of  a  current  work- 
place situation.  What  had 
seemed  unfair  might  prove  to 
be  highly  favorable  after  all. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  You  still  need  to  watch 
what  you  say  and  how  you 
say  it.  What  you  assert  as 
honesty,  others  might  per- 
ceive as  Crabbiness.  Be 
patient.  This  difficult  period 
clears  up  by  the  weekend. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22 ) 
Your  Royalness  needs  time 
away  from  the  limelight  to 
catch  up  on  things,  from  tidy- 
ing your  desk  to  making 
those  calls  you've  put  off. 
You're  back  in  the  center  of 
things  by  the  weekend. 

VIRGO  (August  2.3  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Honesty  is  the 
best  policy,  of  course.  But 
you'll  do  better  at  achieving 
your  goals  if  you  can  be  less 
aggressive  and  more  circum- 
spect in  how  you  phrase  your 
comments. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  Your  ability  to 


Wishing  ^  Well 


maintain  your  balance  in 
confusing  situations  contin- 
ues to  work  for  you.  Stay  on 
the  steady  course,  one  step  at 
a  time.  The  weekend  shows 
improvement. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Your  indeci- 
sivencss  could  simply  be 
your  keen  Scorpian  sense 
warning  you  to  be  wary  of 
making  a  commitment.  'Take 
this  time  to  do  a  more  thor- 
ough investigation. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Good 
news:  New  information 
comes  your  way  to  help  you 
make  a  more  informed  deci- 
sion on  how  to  deal  with  the 
opportunity  that  has  of)ened 
up  for  you. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  This  is  a 
good  time  to  remforce  your 
self-confidence  by  acknowl- 
edging your  good  qualities  to 
yourself.  A  lull  in  your  serial 
life  ends  by  the  weekend. 
Have  fun. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  It's  a  good  time 
to  let  those  recently  pent-up 
emotions  flow  more  freely. 
Why  not  start  by  letting  the 
people  you  care  for  know 
how  you  really  feel  about 
them. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Resist  offers,  no 
matter  how  well-intentioned, 
to  help  with  a  personal  deci- 
sion. Only  you  know  what 
must  be  done,  and  you  have 
the  emotional  strength  to  fol- 
low through. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
have  a  talent  for  getting 
things  done.  You  also  have  a 
gift  for  bringing  people 
together  in  both  personal  and 
professional  relationships.

A  TkOt/GHT 

So  much  of  what  we  hear  about  some- 
body is  usually  exaj»gerated.  To  repeat 
it  only  adds  further  exaggeration.  Mark 
Twain  once  said  that  "A  lie  can  travel 
around  the  w  orld  w  hile  the  truth  is  still 
lacing  up  its  b<M)ts." 

.\  wit  once  wise-cracked,  "Nothing  Ls 
opened  more  by  mistake  than  the 
mouth."  It  was  meant  in  jest  but  is  also  has  a  serious  meaning. 
For  instance,  can  anyone  honestly  say  he  has  never  said  the 
w  rong  thing  at  the  wrong  time?  Hardly.  When  a  faux-paus  like 
that  happens,  one  regrets  it.  .\n  unthinking  slip  of  the  tongue 
can  happen  to  anyone.  It  is  understandable.  However,  an 
outright  lie  -  especially  an  untrue  or  unconfirmed  rumor 
spoken  behind  the  hack  of  someone. . .  is  not  a  slip  of  the  tongue. 
Malicious  gossip  can  malign,  tragically  taint  or  ruin  a  person's 
reputation  and  is  inexcusable. 

We  especially  like  this  quote  that  is  attributed  to  Dr.  Henry 
Van  Dyke. . .  "Never  believe  anything  bad  about  anybody  unless 
you  positively  know  it  is  true;  never  tell  even  that,  unless  you  feel 
that  it  is  absolutely  necessary  and  that  God  is  listening  while  you

The  Moorings  A  Reality  -  At  Last 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Some  200  people  ap- 
plauded Congressman  Will- 
iam Delahunt  and  state  and 
city  leaders  Tuesday  as  they 
oflicially  celebrated  the 
opening  ot  The  Moorings  at 
Squantuni  (kuden. 

Built  on  14-acres  at  the 
former  Squantum  Naval  Air 
Station,  the  Moorings  oilers 
223  units  olalTordahle  hous- 
ing lor  atluits,  age  '^.'^  and 
over. 

Speakers  repeatedly  de- 
scribed the  decade  long 
struggle  to  make  the  dream  a 
reality. 

During  those  early  years. 
plans,  funding  otters,  and  de- 
velopers came  and  failed, 
then  came  and  failed  again. 
By  the  time  of  its  comple- 
tion, the  project  cost  nearly 
$50  million  in  public  and  pri- 
vate funds. 

"It's  been  a  very,  very 
tough  project,"  said 
Catherine  Racer  of  the  Mas- 
sachusetts Department  of 
Housing  Community  and 
Development  (MDHCD). 

On  her  first  visit.  Racer 
said,  "The  place  looked  so 
desolate.""  At  the  time,  she 
realized  that  the  planners 
would  have  to  work  with  the 
Department  of  Defense  and 
she  thought.  '"This  is  going 
to  make  HUD  look  like  a 
picnic."' 

Delahunt  was  repeatedly 
praised  for  his  dedication  to 
the  project  and  his  key  ac- 
tions in  clearing  the  bureau- 
cratic hurdles  in  Washing- 
ton. 

It's  been  a  "'long  saga," 
said  Delahunt,  adding  there's 
been  ""a  lot  cW  pain.  That 


makes  the  day  of  celebration 
that  much  sweeter." 

Delahunt  commended  the 
developer  Edward  A.  Fish, 
President  of  l^.A.  lish  Asso- 
ciates, LLC.  for  the  project's 
final  success  where  others 
had  failed. 

■'For  him.  it's  not  just  a 
business  deal,  but  a  quality 
of  life  issue,"  Delahunt  said. 

The  crowd  was  delighted 
when  Delahunt  told  them  to 
save  him  a  unit  as  he  now  hits 
his  own  Medicare  card.  "Tni 
eligible." 

Delahunt  told  the  audi- 
ence that  moving  to  The 
Moorings  v\  ould  he  a  "'major 
upgrade"  for  him  in  contrast 
to  his  rundown  apartment  in 
Washington.  Delahunt's 
untidy  housekeeping  habits 
were  recently  spotlighted  in 
a  humorous  television  ex- 
pose. 

"Everyone  is  happy  to  be 
here,"  said  Mayor  William 
Phelan  who  called  the  his- 
tory of  The  Moonngs  devel- 
opment "a  long  hard  road." 

Phelan  told  the  residents 
to  "...enjoy  the  million  dol- 
lar views."  then  noted  the> 
have  the  same  million  dollar 
views  as  the  top-end  condo- 
miniums and  townhouses 
built  less  than  a  quarter  mile 
away  at  Marina  Bay. 

■"These  buildings  were  a 
challenge,"  said  Fish  who 
chaired  the  event.  The  audi- 
ence applauded  when  Fish 
recognized  former  Mayor 
James  Sheets'  ""hard  work 
and  determination  in  under- 
taking the  project." 

Fish  said  he  was,  also. 
proud  to  u  ork  with  Delahunt 
and  Phelan.  He  then  cited  the 


Local  Band.

Those  Five  Unopposed  Council  Seats 


KELLY 


RAYMONDI 


COUGHLIN 


DAVIS 


GUTRO 


Has  the  ward  councillor  seat  lost  its  old  political 
lure? 

Where  are  the  candidates  that  once  were  willing  to 
take  on  an  incumbent  even  though  the  odds  were 
against  them? 

This  year,  for  the  second  election  in  a  row,  five  ward 
councillors  have  no  opposition.  Re-elected  even  before 
the  election  is  held. 

The  five  running  unopposed: 

Leo  Kelly  (Ward  1 ),  Dan  Raymond!  (Ward  2),  Kevin 
Coughlin  (Ward 
3),  Jay  Davis 
(Ward  4),  and 
Doug  Gutro 
(Ward  5). 

The  same  five 
were  unopposed 
in  the  2005 
election. 

Only  Brian 
M  c  N  a  m  e  e  , 
seeking  his 
second  temi,  has 
an  opponent: 
Jimmy  Liang, 
who  twice  has  run 
for  an  at -Large  seat. 

Ward  6  also  had  the  only  ward  race 
in  2(X)5.  That  was  for  the  seat  Alicia 
Gardner  left  after  one  term.  McNamee 
defeated  Mark  Bracken  to  succeed 
her. 

The  2003  election  may  have  been 
the  tirst  sign  of  the  apparent  lack  of  interest  in  running 
for  a  ward  seat. 

That  was  when  Bryan  Connolly  decided  not  to  seek 
re-election  in  Ward  4.  a  long-time  political  hot  bed. 

An  open  seat  in  Ward  4  was  bound  to  set  off  a  rush 
to  City  Hall  for  nomination  papers  everyone  thought. 
But  it  didn't. 

Davis  w  as  the  only  candidate.  Imagine,  an  open  seat 
in  Ward  4  and  just  one  candidate  walking  in  to  claim  it. 
Davis  was  unopposed  for  re-election  two  years  later 
and  again  this  year. 

"There  seems  to  be  a  growing  lack  of  interest  for 
people  to  run  for  public  office."  says 
former  Mayor  Frank  McCauley. 

Many,  he  thinks,  may  not  have  the 
time  to  campaign  or  the  time  to  .serve. 
"Maybe  they  are  loo  busy  trying  to 
make  a  living."  he  adds. 

Voters  appear  to  be  losing  interest, 
too. 

The  2(M)  1 . 2(K)3  and  2(K)5  city  elections  are  indicators. 

Despite  the  William  Phelan-James  Sheets  mayoral 
thriller  in  2(K)I .  the  voter  turnout  was  only  47  percent. 
Some  61  to  63  percent  was  expected. 

In  2(K)3  w  iih  a  may  oral  race  ( Phelan-Joseph  New  ton) 
the  turnout  was  35  percent.  And  only  25  percent  turned 
out  in  2(X)5  w  iih  no  mayor's  race  but  two  open  council 
seats  and  three  open  school  committee  seats. 

But  the  lack  of  contenders  for  ward  council  seats 
makes  you  w  onder. 

Could  it  be  the  incumbents  are  doing  their  job  so 
well,  so  no  reason  to  run  against  them?  Or  does  it  take 


SHEA 


MtCAlLKY 


too  .  auch  time  and  money  to  challenge  them? 

Is  it  the  fact  that  ward  councillor  is  the  toughest 
elective  office  outside  of  the  mayor's? 

They  are  the  closest  to  their  constituents.  They  live 
in  the  same  ward  and  are  easy  to  catch  up  to  at  church, 
the  drugstore,  supermarket,  etc. 

And,  of  course,  by  phone. 

If  a  ward  councillor  doesn't  return  phone  calls  he 
(she)  isn't  going  to  be  the  ward  councillor  very  long. 

No  matter  how  small  the  problem  may  be,  it's  big  to 
the  constituent  and  he  wants  his  ward  councillor  to 
return  the  call  and  try  to  do  something  to  solve  the 
problem. 

There  have  been  several  former  ward  councillors 
who  discovered  that  too  late. 

A  ward  council  seat  is  considered  the  first  stepping 
stone  to  a  political  career. 

But  fewer  and  fewer  seem  interested  in  taking  it. 

U 

IF  YOU  LIKE  to  keep  track  of  what  the  candidates 
spent  this  election  year  you'll  have  to 
wait  longer  than  usual. 

Because  there  is  no  preliminary 
election  action  for  mayor,  city  council 
and  school  committee,  the  deadline 
for  candidates  to  file  their  contributions 
and  expenditure  reports  has  been 
moved  to  Oct.  29,  notes  City  Clerk  Joe 
Shea. 

Ordinarily,  there  would  have  been  a  preliminary 
election  report  due  in  September.

QUITE  A  FEW  brownish  lawns  around  the  city  due 
to  the  lack  of  rain.  But  some  of  them  will  soon  be  getting 
what  you  might  call  "a  little  color." 

As  of  last  Saturday,  residents  can  now  plant  political 
campaign  signs  on  their  lawn  in  support  of  their  favorite 
candidates. 

Signs  can't  vote,  of  course,  but  they  are  seen  as  sort 
of  indicators  of  political  strength.  The  more  signs,  the 
stronger  the  candidate. 

So,  they  say.

SUSAN  AND  FRANK  Strazzulla  of  Hull  are  eagerly 
awaiting  the  Boston  area  showing  of  the  movie 
"STIFFS"  starring  Danny  Aiello. 

They  are  extras  in  a  wedding  scene  shot  at  Joe 
Tecce's  restaurant  on  North  Washington  Street  in 
Boston. 

"We  just  hope  we  didn't  w  ind  up  on  the  cutting  nxim 
tloor,"  says  the  former  Susan  Byrnes  who  grew  up  in 
North  Quincy. 

She  and  her  husband  are  the  parents  of  Dr.  Domenic 
Stra/zulla.  Quincy  ophthalmologist. 

Quincy' s  Sal  Giarratani  and  I^aul  Picariello  are  also 
extras  in  the  movie  as  reported  earlier.  And  hope  they 
survived  the  scissors.

THAT  DOWNTOWN  peanut  store  of  the  lV4()s 
continues  to  bring  back  memories. 

Latest  is  Marie  LoCicero  of  West  Quincy  who 
remembers  it  on  Hancock  Street  across  from  the  old

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


A 


THIS  IS  A  1916  postcard  view  of  what  was  then  the 
Atlantic  Memorial  Congregational  Church  on  the  cor- 
ner of  Newbury  Avenue  and  Sagamore  Street  in  North 
Quincy.  Built  in  1910,  this  seam-face  granite  building 
replaced  the  original  wooden  church  that  was  erected 
here  in  1885.  In  1994,  the  congregation  began  sharing 
this  church  building  with  a  Pentecostal  church  group 


that  called  itself  The  Lord's  Planting.  In  2002.  the  two 
church  groups  merged  and  this  is  now  known  as  the 
Evangelical  Church  of  Atlantic.  The  building  just  vis- 
ible in  the  upper  left  housed  Caffarella  Bros,  butcher 
shop  on  the  first  floor  for  over  50  years.  To  contact

Criticizes  Police  Chief 


I  am  writing  in  response 
to  the  recent  article  concern- 
ing the  actions  of  Quincy 
Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley,  who  recently  sus- 
pended an  officer  under  his 
command  for  having  an  ex- 
pired driver's  license.  There 
is  no  doubt  that  the  officer 
should  not  have  been  driving 
and  should  be  disciplined  for 
having  an  expired  license. 
The  reasonable  response 
would  have  been  to  inform 
the  officer  his  license  had 
expired  and  then  discipline 
the  officer  for  his  infraction. 

Instead  when  the  chief 


learned  the  officer's  license 
had  expired  he  set  a  trap  to 
catch  the  officer  behind  the 
wheel.  It  is  difficult,  under 
any  circumstances,  to  sup- 
port Chief  Crowley's  actions 
in  this  instance.  No  profes- 
sional and  responsible  man- 
ager would  handle  this  situ- 
ation in  the  vindictive  and 
underhanded  fashion  Chief 
Crowley  chose.  Setting  a  de- 
liberate trap  for  the  officer 
exacerbated  the  situation  a 
evidenced  by  the 
Patrolman's  Union  subse- 
quent criminal  complaint 


against  the  Chief. 

The  Chief  chose  a  ver\ 
odd  course  of  action  and 
seems  to  have  taken  a  rather 
routine  matter  and  turned  it 
into  an  embarrassing  fiasco. 
The  Chiefs  actions  reall\ 
cause  me  to  question  if  his 
personal  feelings  and  rancor- 
ous relationship  w  ith  the  Po- 
lice Union  have  compro- 
mised his  judgement  and 
ability  to  responsibly  direct 
the  Quincy  Police  Depart- 
ment. 

As  a  resident  oi  Quincv .  1 
find  his  behavior  bizarre,  dis- 


turbing and  bordenng  on  dis- 
honest. In  any  town,  not  just 
Quincy,  a  police  chief  has  a 
lot  of  discretion  in  the  per- 
formance of  his  job  and  the 
decisions  he  makes  directlv 
effect  the  Public.  If  he  would 
treat  one  of  his  own  men  this 
way  it  reallv  causes  me  to 
wonder  hcnv  his  dealings 
with  the  public  vvould  be  1 
think  achief  of  police  should 
conduct  himself  with  a  lot 
more  integrity  than  Chief 
Crow  ley  has  demonstrated  in 
this  instance

Praise  For  Fire  Department's 
Response  To  Faxon  Park  Fires 


This  letter  is  an  open  let- 
ter of  thanks  to  the  Quincy 
Fire  Department. 

Countless  firefighters 
have  been  battling  the  end- 
less brush  fires  in  Faxon  PiU'k 
for  the  past  few  weeks.  These 
fires  have  been  tlaring  up 
and  at  times  raging  at  all 
hours  of  the  day  and  night 
throughout  the  park,  most 
notably  in  the  area  o{  .Alton 
Road. 

Acres  of  forest  have  been 
scorched  and  at  times  the 
flames  have  been  only  yards 
behind  residents'  homes.  It 
has  been  an  uncomfortable 
and,  at  times,  a  frightening 
experience  for  the  neighbor- 
hood. Many  residents  had 
httle  sleep  keeping  one  eye 
open  for  the  next  flare  up  and 
their  children  have  been  tre- 
mendously frightened. 

Through  all  this,  the  QFD 
has  responded  repeatedly  to 
every  call.  They  have  been 
professional,  extremely  pa- 
tient and  reassuring  to  the 
residents.  Their  calm  de- 


meanor has  calmed  many 
residents'  fears.  Witnessing 
these  men  trekking  into  the 
thick  bmsh  at  all  times  of  the 
day  and  night  through  heat 
and  smoke,  burning  trees, 
unsure  footing,  limited  vis- 
ibility-\cry  frightful  condi- 
tions-should remind  us  all  oi 


the  great  service  they  pro- 
vide. 

The  recent  tragic  death  of 
two  Boston  firefighters  un- 
derscores the  great  peril 
these  men  place  thonisehcs 
in  to  save  our  lives  and  prop- 
erts  and  how  quicklv  and 
trauicalh  lite  can  chans^c 


Other  Letters  On  Page  8 


So,  from  all  the  residents 
in  our  neighborhood  that  you 
have  answered  the  call  for, 
extinguished  the  fire,  calmed 
the  nerves  and  said.  '"lust  call 
Us  again  if  >ou  stnell 
sinvikc,"  we  all  sa\  thank 
VkHi  \ou  have  been  wonder- 
ful thank  you'

The  "Diabelli"  Variation 
IS  dedicated  to  Anionic 
Brentano.  the  woman  many 
identify  as  the  mysterious 
"Immortal  Beloved" 

Beethoven  mentions  in  his 
pn\  ate  letters. 

.Millican.  a  professor  of 
music  at  ENC.  will  perform 
the  piece  and  explain  how 
each  portion  describes  a  dif- 
ferent element  of  her  fiery 
and  passionate  personality 
that  captured  the  composer. 

Millican.  who  has  per- 
formed at  the  White  House 
for  Rosalyn  Carter  and  on  10 
tours  of  western  Europe,  has 
taught  at  ENC  since  1979  as 
well  as  lectured  at  Har\ ard, 
Wellesley  and  Fuller  Theo- 
logical Seminary. 


Hospitalized  veterans 
were  treated  by  the  Quincy 
Elks  to  a  tour  of  Boston  Har- 
bor and  a  cookout  on 
George's  Island  recently, 
continuing  a  tradition  that 
was  bom  43  years  ago. 

The  vets  from  the  VA 
Hospital  in  Jamaica  Plain 
and  the  Chelsea  Soldiers 
Home  boarded  The  Irene,  a 
boat  owned  by  Capt.  Rich- 
ard Sutherland,  at  Hingham 
Harbor  for  the  tour. 

The  annual  event  was 
started  43  years  ago  by  the 


captain's  father,  the  late  Dick 
Sutherland,  and  was  contin- 
ued by  his  son  after  the  elder 
Sutherland's  death. 

After  a  scenic  tour  of  Bos- 
ton Harbor,  The  Irene  docked 
at  George's  Island,  where  the 
Rangers  had  reserved  an  area 
for  their  cookout. 

The  veterans  were  enter- 
tained by  Exalted  Ruler  Paul 
Tracey ;  his  three  chair  offic- 
ers, Jim  Folk,  Ben  Wilcopen 
and  Charlie  Towers;  and 
Past  E.xalted  Rulers  Walter 
O'Connell.  Ted  Naser  and 


Sean  McCardle. 

Also  members  Paul 
Barry,  Gary  Spring  and  Ray 
Minigan,  assisted  by  VA 
Chairman  Tom  Shepherd. 

The  day  ended  with  a  tour 
of  Fort  Warren  on  George's 
Island  and  each  veteran  re- 
ceived a  T-shirt,  baseball  cap 
and  pen. 

Other  Elks  dignitaries  on 
the  trip  included  former  Spe- 
cial Deputy  SER  Joseph 
Silvia  Jr.;  Past  State  Presi- 
dent of  Mass.  State  Associa- 
tion Donald  Podgarski  and

assured  by  the  MSNBC 
News  Channel  and  the  Asso- 
ciated  Press  that  ""Viva 
Cuba'  isn't  a  political  film  — 
it's  a  human  one." 

The  film  tells  the  story  of 
star-crossed  lovers  Malu  and 
Jorgito,  who  share  a  bond 
that  transcends  their  families 
disparate  economic  back- 
grounds, but  their  parents 
don't  approve. 

When  Malu's  mother 
plans  to  leave  Cuba,  the  chil- 
dren run  away  and  travel  to 
the  other  side  of  the  island 
to  find  Malu's  father  and  per- 
suade him  against  signing 
the  forms  that  would  allow 


It. 

Although  the  film  is  not 
rated  by  the  Motion  Picture 
Association,  it  is  not  recom- 
mended for  ages  under  17 
without  parent  permission. 

Films  for  the  series  are

Where  Were  You? 


On  the  evening  of  Sept.  6 
my  husband  and  I  attended  a 
public  meeting  regarding  the 
MWRA's  Southern  Spine 
Distribution  Mains  Project 
which  entails  the  installation 
of  a  new  48"  water  main 
from  Quarry  Street/Furnace 


Brook  Parkway  up  to  East 
Milton  Square. 

Since  this  project  affects 
both  Quincy  and  Milton  resi- 
dents, both  were  invited  to 
attend  the  meeting.  Granted 
we  received  notice  only  one 
day  before  the  meeting,  but 


there  were  a  few  residents 
and  business  owners  from 
both  Quincy  and  Milton,  but 
we  can  only  imagine  the  at- 
tendance if  more  notice  was 
given. 

In  attendance  at  the  meet- 
ing, was  Deputy  Richard

"yes"  and  obeying  whatever 
come.s  our  way.  And,  to  a 
degree,  it's  true.  If  you  want 
to  change  this,  make  your- 
selves heard, 
seen...  participate. 

Gene  Lee 
Putnam  Street 


Wells  of  the  Milton  Police 
Department  who  was  there  to 
address  Milton  citizens'  con- 
cerns regarding  traffic  flow 
and  safety.  Also  in  atten- 
dance from  the  town  of 
Milton  were  three  members 
of  the  Planning  Board.  They 
have  requested  that  the 
MWRA  have  more  police 
detail  than  what  they  were 
planning  for  to  help  facilitate 
the  traffic  flow  through 
Willard  Street/Granite  Street 
area. 

Our  question  to  our 
Quincy  politicians  and  our 
Police  Department-where 
were  you?  Living  on  Quarry 
Street  across  from  the 
contractor's  (P.  Caliacco 
Corp.)  staging  area/office, 
we  have  some  concerns  re- 
giirding  this  project  and  there 
was  no  one  from  the  City  of 
Quincy  to  answer  our  ques- 
tions or  to  assure  us  that  the 
safety  and  best  interests  of 
Quincy  residents  are  kept  in 
mind  during  this  14-month 
project. 

We  feel  that  the  City  of 
Quincy  has  let  us  down  m 
this  respect  and  will  be  think- 
ing long  and  hard  before 
casting  our  votes  during  the 
upcoming  election. 

Janice  and  Tim  Dane 
Quarry  Street 


Since  moving  to  Quincy 
six  years  ago  I  have  been  a 
steady  reader  of  The  Sun  and 
as  such  have  scanned  the 
many  letters  to  the  editor 
from  the  prolific  Sal 
Giarrantani  and  have  even 
agreed  with  some  of  his 
opinions. 

But  I  never  thought  I 
would  one  day  be  the  subject 
of  a  personal  attack. 

I  wrote  to  The  Sun  ex- 
pressing my  opposition  to  a 
proposal  by  mayoral  candi- 
date Tom  Koch  that  the  cur- 
rent licensing  board  be  re- 
placed by  members  ap- 
pointed by  the  mayor.  I  said 
it  was  a  senseless  proposal 
and  I  stand  by  that... it  is  in- 
deed senseless. .  .and  I  would 
have  said  the  same  thing  had 
Mayor  Phelan  proposed  it. 
Yet,  Mr.  Giarrantani  took  this 
as  a  personal  attack  against 
Mr.  Koch. 

Mr.  Giarrantani  said  my 
letter  "was  nothing  more 
than  an  ad  homienem  attack 
on  Tom  Koch,  rather  than  a 
real  discussion  of  the  issue." 
Sorry,  but  that  is  absolutely 
untrue.  If  Mr.  Giarrantani 
would  take  the  time  to  re- 
read my  letter  he  will  see  that 
no  where  in  it  did  1  attack  or 
say  anything  derogatory  re- 
Mr.  Koch:  it  was  the  pro- 
posal I  was. ..and 
am... against,  not  Mr.  Koch. 

I  do  not  Mr.  Koch  and  I 
have  never  met  him.  I  have 
absolutely  nothing  against 
him  and  would  never,  never 
personally  attack  or  belittle 
him  or  any  other  candidate. 
As  a  matter  of  fact,  I  admire 
anyone  who  will  put  his  per- 
sonal life  on  the  line  to  run 
for  public  office. 


But  this  doesn't  mean  I  do 
not  have  the  right  to  disagree 
or  criticize  any  of  his  poli- 
cies and  proposals.  Actually, 
I  appreciate  the  fact  that  Mr. 
Koch  has  come  out  with  a 
concrete  proposal  by  which 
the  community  can  judge  the 
potential  of  his  possible  ad- 
ministration. We  have  a 
record  of  accomplishments 
by  which  we  can  judge 
Mayor  Phelan,  but  need 
more  concrete,  positive  pro- 
posals by  Mr.  Koch  to  make 
the  same  unbiased  judge- 
ment. 

I  want  to  state  here  that  I 
do  not  know  either  Mr.  Koch 
or  Mayor  Phelan  personally. 
The  only  time  I  met  the 
Mayor  was  at  a  large  recep- 
tion in  which  I  was  one  of 
hundreds  who  received  a 
passing  handshake  from  him. 
I  doubt  very  much  that  he 
even  knows  I  exist. 

The  main  thrust  of  Mr. 
Giarrantani 's  complaint  im- 
plied that  my  letter  was,  and 
I  quote  directly,  "dirty  poli- 
tics, tactics  unbecoming  off 
a  positive  outlook  on  poli- 
tics, government  and  the  up- 
coming mayoral  race."  I  dis- 
agreed with  Mr. 
Giarrantani's  opinion  so. 
ergo,  I  am  indulging  in  dirty 
politics?  Come  on  Sal,  if  you 
are  allowed  to  state  your 
opinion  so  often,  why  is  it 
considered  dirty  politics 
when  others  do  the  same? 

I  agree  totally  with  Mr. 
Giarrantani's  belief  that  this 
should  be  a  mayoral  cam- 
paign about  issues,  not  per- 
sonalities. Let's  keep  it  that 
way.

BEST  SEAT  in  the  house  on  a  90-plus  degree  Saturday  afternoon  is  occupied  by  Darren  Koss  atop 
the  dunk  tank  set  up  by  the  Morrisette  Legion  Post  at  the  South  Quincy  Italian  Festival  to  raise 
funds  to  send  the  ''things  we  taken  for  granted"  to  the  troops  serving  in  Afghanistan  and  Iraq. 
Frequent  dunkings  plus  the  sale  of  baked  goods  and  raffles  raised  a  goodly  sum  of  money  with 
donations  still  coming  in.  ijuiruy  Sun  photo/Norcen  O'Shea

Quincy  Prepared  On  Sixth  Anniversary  Of  9/11 


It's  been  six  years  since 
the  worst  terrorist  attack  in 
American  history  took  down 
the  World  Trade  Towers  in 
New  York  and  Quincy  is 
ready  like  never  before. 

Since  that  grim  day,  the 
city  has  secured  almost  $2 
million  in  federal  grants  to 
equip  fire,  police,  health, 
public  works  and  emergency 
management  departments. 

"We  are  better  prepared  in 
emergency  training  and  re- 
sponse than  at  any  time  in 
our  history,"  said  Mayor  Wil- 
liam Phelan.  "We  remain 
prepared,  but  not  scared,  as 
we  move  ahead. 

"We  have  been  pro-active 
in  our  preparations  for  any 
type  of  public  safety  incident 
imaginable. 

"The  employees  of  the 
fire,  police,  health  and  emer- 
gency management  depart- 
ments have  established  rela- 
tionships with  each  other  and 
with  other  communities  un- 
hke  any  other  time  in  our  his- 
tory. 

"These  times  call  for  ex- 
panded planning  and  training 
and  Quincy  has  done  just 
that." 

Quincy  is  one  of  nine 
communities  that  participate 
in  the  Boston  Urban  Area 
Strategic  Initiative  (UASI),  a 
federally  funded  effort  coor- 
dinating training,  equipment 
and  response  with  other 
communities. 

The  other  communities 
include  Boston,  Cambridge, 
Brookline,  Chelsea,  Everett, 
Revere,  Somerville  and 
Winthrop. 

"We  have  developed 
working  relationships  with 
all  of  the  critical  resources  in 
Greater  Boston,"  said  Tom 
Gorman,  the  director  of 
Emergency  Management. 

"The  jurisdictional 
boundaries  that  once  hinder 
public  safety  cooperation  are

long  gone.  We  work  together 
every  day  to  make  sure  our 
city  and  our  region  are  safe." 
Phelan  ticked  off  this  list 
of  moves  which,  he  said, 
have  made  for  a  safer  Quincy 
in  the  past  six  years. 

•  One  of  his  first  actions 
on  being  elected  was  to  hire 
Gorman,  a  retired  Quincy 
fire  chief  and  former  state 
trooper  with  years  of  experi- 
ence and  contacts  in  public 
safety. 

Gorman  has  revamped 
the  Emergency  Management 
page  on  the  city  web-site 
(www.ci.quincy.ma.us)  to 
help  residents  link  with  valu- 
able information  sources. 

•  Since  9/1 1,  every  mem- 
ber of  the  police  and  fire  de- 
partments have  been  trained 
in  National  Incident  Man- 
agement System  (NIMS),  an 
incident  command  model 
followed  by  many  large  ju- 
risdictions. 

The  massive  undertaking 
was  paid  for  through  a  fed- 
eral grant  with  cooperation 
from  both  departments  and 
all  employees. 

An  elevate  level  of  inci- 
dent management  training  is 
occurring  this  year  with 
higher-ranking  officers  in 
both  police  and  fire. 

"We  plan  on  expanding 
our  training  further  in  the 
coming  months,"  said 
Deputy  Fire  Chief  Gary 
Smyth.  "We  have  an  enthu- 
siastic, young  department 
that  recognizes  that  today's 
firefighter  must  be  prepared 
for  any  kind  of  incident." 

•  The  city  has  secured 
close  to  a  million  dollars  in 
equipment  to  better  prepare 
its  personnel. 

•  Each  and  every 
firefighter  and  police  officer 
was  provided  with  personal 
protective  equipment  (PPE) 
at  the  outset  of  the  project. 

•  The  city  provided  new 


radio  and  communication 
equipment  to  every  police 
officer  and  firefighter.  All 
new  radios  were  installed  in 
each  fire  apparatus  as  well. 

"This  has  been  one  oi  the 
biggest  and  most  important 
improvements  we"\c  made," 
said  Smyth. 

"Our  personnel  are  safer 
every  day  on  the  job  with 
new  interoperable  radios.  We 
can  communicate  better  with 
each  other  and  if  need  be, 
with  other  agencies  and  com- 
munities." 

•  Satellite  phones  were 
provided  to  all  first-re- 
sponder  department  heads  to 
ensure  communication  in  the 
event  of  a  wide-scale  loss  of 
phone  or  cellular  systems. 

•  The  Fire  Department  has 
secured  Level  A  hazardous- 
materials  suits. 

•  The  Police  Maritime 
Unit  had  improvements 
made  to  its  boat  to  better  pa- 
trol the  shoreline,  often  seen 
as  one  of  the  more  vulnerable 
targets  in  the  region. 

•  A  new  Police  Depart- 
ment SCUBA  team  was 
trained  and  outfitted  for  re- 
sponse and  prevention. 

•  A  new  state-of-the-art 
hull-scanning  robot  was 
awarded  to  the  Police  De- 
partment to  protect  the  Fore 
River  shipping  channel. 

•  The  city  has  a  new 
Emergency  Operations  Cen- 
ter (EOC),  a  state-of-the-art 
intelligence  center  used  in 
case  of  any  large  scale  event 
or  emergency. 

The  facility  is  equipped 
with  multiple  technologies  to 
connect  city  departments  and 
agencies  outside  of  the  city 
as  well. 

"Communication  is  the 
key  to  preparation  and  re- 
sponse," said  Mayor  Phelan. 

"We  continue  to  improve 
in  each  area  in  an  effort  to 
enhance  public  safety.  There

fonnation  with  us.  " 

•  The  Emergency  Man- 
agement Department  has 
outfitted  a  "portable  shelter" 
trailer  to  be  transported  to 
sites  of  need,  such  as  elderly 
housing  complexes. 

•  The  Health  Department 
also  has  received  trailers  to 
assist  any  mass  vaccination 
efforts. 

"The  coordination  of 
various  agencies  is  the  key 
to  the  success  of  each  pro- 
gram," said  Health  Commis- 
sioner Drew  Scheele. 

"We  work  constantly  with 
the  state  and  other  commu- 
nities to  create  coordinated 
plans  and  to  improve  our  lo- 
cal plans.  We  have  also 
launched  a  great  volunteer 
program  that  has  been  quite 


ROBERI  C ROWLEY 

successful. 

•  Scheele  was  referring  to 
the  Medical  Reserve  Corps, 
a  group  of  volunteer  doctor, 
nurses  and  health  care  pro- 
viders organized  to  assist  in 
the  event  of  any  mass  vacci- 
nation effort. 

There  are  more  than  150 
health  care  providers  cur- 
rently signed-on  as  volun- 
teers. 

•  The  Health  Department 
and  all  first  responders  have 
participated  in  mock  exer- 
cises preparing  for  an  avian 
influenza  outbreak  or  pan- 
demic flu  outbreak. 

Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  emphasized  that 
prevention  is  the  best  mea- 
sure of  preparedness. 

•  The  Police  Department 
now  participates  in  the  Bos- 
ton Regional  Intelligence 


DREW  SCHEELE 

Center  (BRIC). 

Quincy  police  personnel 
communicate  and  coordinate 
with  other  cities  and  towns 
to  share  information  on  per- 
sons of  interest  and  gang  ac- 
tivities in  the  Greater  Boston 
area. 

"We  enjoy  a  close  work- 
ing relationship  with  all  of 
the  communities  and  the  out- 
side agencies  such  as  the 
MBTA  and  the  State  Police," 
said  Crowley. 

"We  all  have  the  same 
goal  and  we  are  all  working 
together  toward  that  goal." 

Phelan  said  he  is  encour- 
aged by  Gov.  Deval  Patrick's 
announcement  of  a  plan  to 
coordinate  regional  mass 
evacuation,  the  lack  of 
which,  said  the  mayor,  was 
a  remaining  shortcoming  in 
the  preparations.

The  City  Council  is  con 
siderine  enacting  regulations 
that  would  limit  sidewalk 
newsiacks  lor  daily,  weekl\ 
and  free  puhlications  to  eight 
per  block,  and  ivc|uiie  ow  n- 
ers  to  maintain  each  site  and 
to  register  each  unit  annu- 
ally. 

"This  is  not  about  regulat- 
ing content,  (but  to)  insure 
they  are  all  well  kept."  City 
Council  President  Douglas 
Ciutro  said  last  week  as  the 
CounciTs  Ordinance  Com- 
mittee opened  a  public  hear- 
ing on  new'srack  regulations 
prepared  by  City  Solicitor 
Monica  Conyngham. 

Gutro  said  that  he  found 
that  some  newsracks  were 
having  a  "negative  blight  im- 
pact" in  certain  areas  of  the 
city  and  There  didn't  seem 
to  be  any  entity  to  issue  per- 
mits." 

At  this  time,  there  are  14 
newsracks  in  liiMit  of  the 
Q)uincy  Center  Post  Office, 
riie  racks  include  free  and 
paid  metropolitan  dailies,  as 
well  as  employment,  and 
housing  listings.  Several 
machines  are  rusty  with  lli- 
ers  pasted  to  their  front  and 
sides  with  some  litter  strew  n 
on  the  sidewalk. 

Fhc  Quiney  Sun  does  not 
circulate  through  newsracks, 
but  is  a\ailable  through  re- 
tail outlets,  news  carrier,  and 
mail  subscription. 

Conyngham  explained 
that,  under  the  proposal, 
newsrack  owners  would  be 
responsible  for  the  appear-

ance  and  maintenance  of  their 
equipment  as  well  as  litter 
caused  by  their  pioduct 

Hach  owner  would  be  re- 
quired to  show  proof  of  in 
surance  and  be  subject  to 
lines  for  ncni-compliance 
w  hen  their  new  srack  or  pub- 
lication creates  a  public  nui- 
sance, litter,  or  danger. 

Councillor  Joseph  Finn 
chaired  the  hearing  on  the 
ordinance  proposed  by 
Ciutrcv  Representatives  of  al! 
three  major  dailies  said  they 
approved  the  ordinance  alter 
recommending  some  techni- 
cal adjustments. 

"We  feel  the  ordinance  is 
reasonable,"  said  James  Nee. 
Sales  and  Service  Director 
ol"  The  Boston  Globe.  Phil 
Ouellete.  Circulation  Direc- 
tor of  The  Patrii U  Lecli^er  said 
he  was  "supportive  of  the 
ordinance." 

The  Boston  Herald's  Cir- 
culation Manager  John  Moon 
told  the  committee  that  res- 
taurants often  make  requests 
for  the  Herald  newsracks.  He, 
also,  suggested  minor 
changes  on  the  proposed  ap- 
plication that  would  clarify 
locations. 

Under  the  proposed  ordi- 
nance all  vendors  or  publish- 
ers would  be  required  to  ap- 
ply for  a  pennit  from  the  city 
for  an  initial  $50  fee  and  pay 
an  additional  $5  for  the  first 
and  every  subsequent  year 
for  each  newsrack  location. 

Each  application  would 


mation  on  the  company, 
proof  of  insurance,  the  name 
oi  the  materials  to  be  circu- 
lated anti  the  location  of  each 
newsrack. 

The  vendor  sites  would 
be  eligible  on  a  first-come, 
first-serve  basis.  To  insure 
that.  Ward  2  Councillor 
Daniel  Raymondi  said  each 
application  should  be  time- 
stamped  and  certified  at  City 
Hall  and  identitied  on  a  pub- 
licly advertised  list. 

Several  councillors  asked 
whether  a  liinit  of  eight  per 
block  was  enough  in  some 
locations  and  Gutro  said  the 
pr(»posed  limit  could  be  re- 
visited. 

Ward  I  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  said  that  job  and  apart- 
ment listing  booklets  serve  a 
legitimate  purpose  and  he 
questioned  whether  these 
would  be  eliminated. 

Conyngham  assured 
councillors  and  the  public 
that  there  w  ould  be  no  ques- 
tions or  restrictions  on  the 
ct>ntent  of  a  publication  or 
the  value  o\'  the  content  un- 
less there  were  a  "compel- 
ling government  interest." 

Finn  agreed  that  nothing 
in  the  proposal  suggested 
regulating  the  content. 

"It's  my  hope  that  we  pass 
this  in  the  next  30  to  60  days," 
Gutro  said  after  the  hearing. 
After  the  proposal  is  revised, 
the  Ordinance  Cominittee 
will  vote  and  then  vote  as  the 
City  Council.

City  Sadly  Observes 
9/11  Sixth  Anniversary 


(Cont'd  From  Page  1) 

the  participants  at  the 
headquarter  ceremony. 

"You  can't  forget  the 
tragedy  of  9-1). "said  one 
observer  Atty.  Tom 
Clougherty  who  added,  "It's 
hard  to  believe  it's  been  six 
years." 

Like  most  Americans, 
Clougherty  can  recall  the 
exact  moment  and 
circumstance  when  he 
learned  of  the  attack  on  the 
country. 

Tuesday's  ceremony  with 
prayers,  bagpipes  and  the 
solemn  ringing  of  the  fire 
department's  bell  echoed  the 
memorials  of  years  past  and 
reminded  observers  of  the 
lives  lost  and  the  sacrifices 
made  in  the  minutes,  hours, 
days  and  years  since  that  day. 

Firefighter  Steve  Sweet 
played  "Amazing  Grace"  on 


the  bagpipes. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
stood  at  attention  with  Fire 
Chief  Timothy  Pettinelli, 
Deputy  Chief  Gary  Smyth 
and  Local  792  President 
Ernie  Arienti  as  Wipfler  then 
raised  the  flag  at  the 
department's  memorial. 

Standing  alongside  the 
officials  were  Firefighters 
John  Scribi,  John  Christiani, 
Ted  Johnson  and  Ralph 
Blight. 

After  the  ceremony,  Menz 
said  that  it's  been  a  sad  week 
as  he  also  attended  memorials 
for  two  Boston  firefighters 
who  died  last  week  fighting  a 
fire  in  a  burning  restaurant  in 
West  Roxbury. 

For  Men/,  it  is  a  reminder 
of  how  fragile  life  is  and  of 
sacrifices  of  firefighters  and 
police  officers,  in  fact,  rescue 
workers  are  now  suffering 
health     problems     from 


exposure  to  chemical  at 
Ground  Zero. 

Observers  included 
Clougherty  and  more  than  a 
dozen  of  his  associates  from 
The  Senior  Resource  Center 
on  Quincy  Avenue  and  Chris 
Welcome  and  Sabrina 
Melchionno. 

Welcome  said  he  attends  a 
9-1 1  observance  every  year 
wherever  he  is.  "because 
Americans  died  for 
America."  Last  year. 
Welcome  marked  the  day  at 
a  Dorchester  ceremony. 

"I  came  because  not 
enough  people  do  anymore." 
said  Melchionno  who 
remembers  when  over  100 
persons  annually  attended  the 
local  memorial  service. 

"Now,  "  she  said,  "It's 
just  local  business  people 
who  can  find  the  time  to  gel 
out  for  five  minutes."

The  Moorings  A  Reality  -  At  Last 


(Cont'd  From  Page  3) 

Gleason  congratulated 
Sheets  and  Phelan  and  de- 
veloper Fish  who  had  "the 
ability  to  get  this  done  when 
others  were  unable  to  do  it." 

"it  was  a  complicated 
project."  Sheets  said  after  the 
formalities,  noting  there  were 
'roadblocks"  at  every  turn 
and  the  City  was  "fightmg 
lor  scraps." 

"The  houses  were  all  va- 
cant." Sheets  said  ol  the  na- 
val officers'  quarters  on  Na- 
val Terrace.  He  said  the  city 
decided,  "this  land  has  to  be 
secured  for  seniors." 

The  best  testament  to  The 
Moorings,  come  from  the 
residents  themselves. 

"1  love  it  here;  I  am  so 
grateful.  They  also  accepted 
my  doggie,  Henry,  and  he 
loves  it  here"  said  Barbara 
Coleman.  Coleman  worked 


for  decades  for  the  Massa- 
chusetts Department  of  Men- 
tal Health. 

Jeanne  Silva  agreed  with 
Coleman.  Silva  worked  for 
Quincy  for  ?i9  years  in  the 
school  department's  food 
service  department. 

"They  keep  the  grounds 
beautifully."  said  Anna  Mad- 
den before  the  ceremony. 
"It's  right  al  the  beach.  You 
get  a  nice  brce/e  at  night." 

Kath>  Biamdli  got  the  first 
application  for  a  unit.  She's 
never  regretted  spending  a 
night  in  her  car  in  order  to  be 
first  in  line  forthe  units.  Now 
she  has  a  beautiful  apartment 
and  magnificent  view. 

"We  have  neighbors  who 
will  watch  out  for  each 
other,"  said  Bramdli  who 
described  the  workout  room 
and  activities  offered  to  the 
residents. 


FORMER  MAYOR  JAMKS  SHKKIS,  shown  with  residcnl 
Janet  Powers,  was  praised  for  his  work  in  hrin^in^  about  Yhv 
Moorings  at  Squantum  (ilardens  which  was  begun  during  his 
administration.  ((JhIucv  Sun  PIkho/Liuki  Ciriffin) 


The  residents  were  unani- 
mous in  praising  the  mainte- 
nance at  the  Moorings. 

"They  address  the  prob- 
lem the  same  day,"  said 
Bramdli.  Another  tenant,  Al 


Riley,  said,  "The  mainte- 
nance guys  are  great." 

There  are  currently  1^) 
available  units  at  The  Moor- 
ings and  the  marketing  of- 
fice maintains  a  waiting  list.

The  other  night  1  went  to 
bed  earlier  than  my  wife.  Not 
long  afterwards  she  came 
upstairs  to  give  me  a  hug  and 
inform  me  that  there  was  a 
multiple  alarm  fire  in  West 
Ro.xbury. 

The  hug  in  itself  wasn't 
all  that  unusual  while  in  this 
instance  she  did  so  having 
heard  the  report  of  the  two- 
firefighter  fatalities.  Wanting 
me  to  sleep,  she  never  con- 
veyed the  whole  story  to  nie. 

Driving  to  work  the  ne.xt 
day,  1  heard  the  new  s.  It  was 
crushing!  As  firefighters,  we 
all  realize  how  easily  it  can 
t)ccui,  while  we're  devas- 
tated we're  de\  astated  when 
It  does.  Nearly  30  years  on

Boston.  1  wish  it  wasn't  so. 

I'd  like  to  convey  some 
incite  into  fire  fighting  here 
for  you  on  their  behalf  so  that 
you  might  gain  some  insight 
into  the  commitment  these

mci  ciihcr  ol  them,  whilo 
r\c  lived  and  worked 
elosely  with  firefighters  lor 
years.  There's  a  common 
thread  amongst  us.  a  com- 
monality in  experience  and 
in  locus. 

If  you  cant  focus  on  the 
welfare  o^  others,  you 
shouldn't  make  the  commit- 
ment to  become  a  firefighter 
to  begin  with.  Once  you've 
acknowledged  that  step  and 
do  so.  It  is  traniing  and  ex- 
perience that  propels  you  to- 
ward the  ability  to  act  on  that 
commitment.  Helping  others 
can  be  tremendously  fulfill- 
ing; most  of  us  become  pas- 
sionate about  the  opportu- 
nity, while  that  experience 
creates  a  resolve. 

There's  a  downside 
though.  I  don't  doubt  for  one 
moment  that  these 
firefighters  did  everything 
right,  everything.  There's 
still  an  incalculable  risk; 
however,  that  we  know  ex- 
ists while  hoping  it  won't 
manifest.  It  involves  what  we 
can't  anticipate  or  control 
even  after  every  procedure 
has  been  adhered  to.  Even 
when  everything  is  done  by 
the  book,  tragedy  can  still 
occur.  Meanwhile  writing 
this,  I  don't  pretend  to  know 
what  occurred  in  West 
Roxbury,  while  I  can  convey 
what  can  happen. 

f^re  can  be  confined 
w  ithin  concealed  spaces  for 
quite  sometime  without 
breaking  out  into  open  air 
within  a  building.  I  saw  it 
occur  in  a  Quincy  fire  that  I 
investigated  years  ago  where 
an  initial  short  circuit  oc- 
curred on  a  .Saturday,  and  the 
fire  broke  out  of  a  concealed 
space  with  explosive  force 
the  following  Friday. 

In  a  ciMicealed  space  as 
with  that  located  behind  a 
false  ceiling,  a  fire  can  smol- 
der for  houxs  or  days  char- 
ring w  ooden  structural  mem- 
bers like  rafters  for  instance. 
While  the  oxygen  content 
within  that  space  might  no 
longer  exist,  the  carbon  mon- 
oxide created  by  the  smol- 
dering does  feed  the  fire. 
Carbon  monoxide  is  not  only 
an  asphyxiate,  it  is  also  a 
combustible  gas.  Once 
heated  and  in  contact  with 
open  air  the  mixture  is  explo- 
sive. 

So  two  things  can  occur 
long  before  the  appearance 
of  the  first  firefighters  on  a 
scene.  There  can  be  severe 
weakening  of  structural 


members  by  extended  smol- 
dering and  a  buildup  of  po- 
tentially explosive  gas.  If  the 
structure  is  then  weakened 
causing  a  collapse,  the  heat, 
and  combustible  gases, 
which  can  be  confined  under 
pressure,  are  \iolently  re- 
leased into  the  fresh  air  and 
oxygen  causing  and  explo- 
sion. That's  not  the  easiest 
scenario  to  anticipate  or  pre- 
pare for  when  every  indica- 
tion is  you're  responding  to 
beginning  stages  of  an  inte- 
rior fire. 

There's  no  doubt  in  my 
mind  that  these  firefighters 
entered  the  building  with  a 
charged  line,  standard  oper- 
ating procedure,  while  they 
could  not  anticipate  that  it 
would  be  overwhelmed  by 
the  sudden  occurrence  of  a 
violent  explosion.  It's  that 
incalculable  zone  of  risk  that 
can't  be  fully  anticipated,  but 
that  exists  with  each  re- 
sponse. Even  preparation 
and  adherence  to  state  of  the 
art  procedures  can  leave  a 
firefighter  vulnerable. 

I  so  often  write  to  you 
about  preventing  fire,  while 
I  discourage  practices  such 
as  storage  of  gasoline  or  pnv 
pane  in  basements,  which 
would  substantially  increase 
the  risk  to  responding 
firefighters.  I  do  so  out  of  a 
need  to  reduce  the  potential 
of  that  incalculable  risk 
when  firefighters  believe 
they're  respt)nding  to  an  in- 
terior fire  and  encounter  far 
more. 

There  is  urgency  when 
firefighters  apjiroach  a  fire, 
while  safety  of  course  is  a 
major  consideration.  How- 
ever, the  urgency  preempts 
seeking  the  input  of  struc- 
tural engineers  o\  acquiring 
a  list  of  combustible  ci>ntcnls 
prit>r  to  firefighters  entering 
a  building.  That  absence  i>f 
information  does  nothing  to 
minimize  that  incalculable 
risk  that  can't  in  reality  bo 
entirely  avoided. 

My  deepest  condolences 
to  the  families  of  those 
firefighters  while  words  can 
never  convey  the  comfort 
they  so  much  deserve.  My 
condolences  to  their  fellow 
firefighters  who  trained, 
worked,  ate  and  laughed 
amongst  those  just  lost.  It  is 
their  commitment  to  others 
that  has  lead  to  this  great 
loss,  a  loss  that  at  times  is 
unavoidable. 

I  thank  them  for  that  com- 
mitment!

Your  Homeowner  s  Policy  - 

Does  It  Cover 
What  You  Think? 


(NAPS)-  If  you  havent 
looked  at  your  homeowner's 
policy  in  a  while,  you  mav 
want  to  dust  it  off  and  give  it 
a  good  read. 

For  example,  if  your  home 
w  ere  struck  by  storm,  fire  or 
other  natural  disaster,  would 
yourpolicy  covere\  erything 
you  think  it  might.'  And  if 
you  took  steps  to  ensure  your 
home  was  fire,  flood  and 
hurricane  resistant,  would 
your  insurance  company  give 
you  a  discount? 

Homeowners  Unclear 
About  What's  Covered 

According  to  a  recent 
study  undertaken  by  the 
National  Association  of 
Insurance  Conmiissioners. 
homeowners  are  surprisingly 
unclear  about  what  their 
policies  do  and  do  not  cover, 
and  therefore  many  are  not 
carrying  the  correct 
insurance.  A  recent  MetLife 
survey  also  found  widespread 
confusion  about  insurance 
coverage.  The  study  found 
that  nearly  one-third  of  those 
surveyed    believe    their

if  they  were  destroyed  by  fire, 
storm  or  other  natuial 
disaster. 

It  is  critical  -  now  more 
than  e\  er  -  for  homeowners 
to  be  in  touch  with  their 
msurance  caixiers  to  asceitam 
just  what's  covered  and 
what's  not.  This  would  be 
the  time;  too,  to  ask  for 
discounts  for  taking 
precautions  to  make  sure  your 
home  is  hurricane,  fire  and 
Hood  resistant. 

Wildfire  Checklist 

Many  insurance 

companies  will  consider 
giving  discounts  for  taking 
precautions.  For  e.xainple,  a 
recent  New  York  Times 
article  called  attention  to  the 
fact  that  wildfires  have 
caused  insurance  companies, 
including  vState  Farm,  to  take 
a  harder  look  at  where  people 
and  trees  meet,  and  that  they 
are  less  willing  to  write 
policies  for  homeowners  who 
do  not  meet  a  "wildlife 
checklist." 

One  check]i,st  item  with 
which  you  can  protect  your 
home  is  fiber-cement  siding 
vs.  wood  or  vinyl.  While  no 
building  material  can 
guarantee  a  storm-resistant 
of  fireproof  home,  there  are 
some  preventative  measures 
that  can  be  taken.  For 
example,  due  to  its  resistance 
to  wind,  fire,  impact  and 
flood,  James  Hardie  Siding 
Products  have  been  specified 
for  homes  in  hurricane  -  and 
wildfire-prone  areas 

throughout  the  U.S.  The 
products  can  be  installed  to 
withstand  hurricane-force 
winds  up  to  150  mph  in  3- 
second  gusts.  James  Hardie 
exterior  and  interiorproducts 
are  noncombustible  when 
tested  in  accordance  with 
current  standards.

North  Looks  To  Build  From  Somerville  Loss 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  North  Quincv  Red 
Raiders  lost  their  2(K)7  season 
opener  28-14  to  Somerville 
High  School  last  Friday 
afternoon  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium,  but  the 
final  score  is  not  totally 
indicative  of  the  progress  the 
team  has  been  made  since 
the  end  of  last  year  or  the 
positives  that  were  evident 
during  the  course  of  this 
game. 

"We've  got  a  lot  of 
positives  to  look  Ibrvvard  to 
and  ue  just  need  to  clean  up 
the  little  things."  said  second- 
year  coach  Jim  Connor.  "1 
think  the  good  things  can 
outweigh  the  bad  eventually. 

"We  ended  up  beating 
ourselves  at  the  end.  But  the 
page  needs  to  turn.  If  we  want 
to  be  a  good  team  we  need  to 
expect  to  win.  We  are  moving 
on  and  need  to  get  ready  to 
play  Sandwich  next  Friday 
in  our  first  Atlantic  Coast 
League  game." 

Playing  in  temperatures 
that  reached  the  mid-90s  by 
kickoff,  the  Red  Raiders 
began  the  contest  very  hot. 
Somervi I le  choose  to  recei  ve 
the  ball  to  (^pen  the  game, 
and  after  a  squib  kick  placed 
the  i'ootball  on  the  .^2-yard 
line,  the  North  Quincy 
defense  made  their  first  stand 
of  the  fall. 

The  Highlanders'  lirst 
offensive  play  from 
scrimmage  saw  'heir 
quarterback.  Jason  Messina, 
fumble  the  snap  from  under 
center.  The  Red  Raiders 
jumped  all  over  the  loose  ball,

run  early  in  the  first  quarter  of  last  Friday's  season  opener 
against  Somerville.  Cahill  finished  the  game  with  two  TDs  and

25  seconds  into  the  contest. 

With  new  quarterback 
Dennis  Martin  calling  the 
play  to  open  the  drive  from 
inside  Somerville's  30-yard 
line,  running  back  Joe 
Vailpando  took  the  handoff 
five  yards.  After  a  Jon  Cahill 
run  for  no  gain,  Martin  gt)l 
the  crowd  and  sideline  fired

for  the  first  down. 

Cahill.  only  ajunior,  took 
over  from  there.  Two 
consecutive  runs  ol  eight  and 
nine  yards  brought  the  ball 
all  the  way  down  to  the  six- 
yard  line.  On  first  and  goal 
from  the  six,  Danny  Jackson 
was  stopped  short  of  the  goal 
line  by  inches,  but  on  the 


next  play  Cahill  (20  carries, 
70  yards,  2TDs)  punched  it 
in  to  give  North  an  early  7-0 
lead. 

"The  opening  dri\  e  was  a 
positive  for  the  whole  team," 
Connor  said.  "Our  defense 
came  up  big  and  our  offense, 
behind  Martin,  our  three 
running  backs  (Cahill. 
Jackson  and  Valpando)  and 
our  offensive  line  mo\ccl  the 
ball.  1  am  not  sure  it  v\e  will 
be  using  three  backs  each 
game,  but  with  the  hot 
lempei  ature.  we  used  all  three 
to  keep  all  of  them  cool  and 
fresh."

North  Drops  Opener  To  Brockton 


The  North  Quincy  girls' 
soccer  team  opened  their 
2007  season  against 
Brockton  High  School. 
Brockton,  along  with  the 
unseasonably  hot  weather, 
presented  a  difficult 
challenge  forthe  Red  Raiders 
and  in  the  end  North  dropped 
a  well-played  game,  2- 1 . 

"It  was  a  disappointing 
way  to  begin  the  season, 
losing  to  a  non-league 
opponent  on  our  home  turf," 
said  head  coach  Paul  Bregoli. 
"We'll  have  to  play  much 
better  as  aunii  if  we  are  going 
to  have  the  success  we  have 
enjoyed  in  past  years." 

The  Boxers  offensive 
attack  produced  a  goal  early 
in  the  first  half.  Junior 
forward  Tatiana  Veira  beat 
two  Red  Raider  defensive 
players  at  the  1 8-yard  mark 
and  placed  her  shot  into  the 
top  comer  of  the  net.  North 
Quincy's  best  scoring 
opportunities  in  the  opening 
half  came  off  the  feet  of  senior 
captains  Emily  Milone  and 
Mary  Kate  Stille.  Junior 
keeper  Siobhan  Carnell 
handled  several  Boxer 
scoring  chances  flawlessly  to 
keep  the  scoiie  1  -0  at  halftime. 

North  Quincy  opened  the 
second  half  with  a  pressing 
offensive  attack.  Freshman

Jillian  Carchcdi  took  a 
crossing  pass  from  Stille  and 
her  shot  from  eight  yards  out 
hit  the  crossbar  and  stayed 
out  of  the  goal. 

At  the  20-minute  mark, 
Veira  struck  a^ain  to  enc 
Brockton  a  2-0  lead.  But 
Emily  Milone,  with  I  1 
minutes  left  in  the  match, 
scored  her  first  goal  o\  the 
season,  taking  a  pass  from 
junior  forward  Michel! 
Gardiner  and  nailed  her  shot 
from  1 0  yards  out.  Solid  pla\ 
from  defender  Colleen 
McCarthy  helped  key  the 
play  in  the  Brockton  end. 

Sophomore  Sammy 
Bonnani  cleared  a  ball  off 
her  own  goal  line  late  in  the 
game  to  keep  the  score  at  2- 
I.  With  five  minutes  left  in 
regulation,  Milone  broke  in 
between  two  Boxer  defenders 
and  was  hauled  down  in  the 


box.  However,  no  call  was 
made.

and  three  ti>uehdovvns 

The  game,  the  second  ot 
the  evening  at  Veterans 
Stadium,  drew  a  fairly  hirge 
home  croud  and  one  could 
feci  the  excitement  and 
anticipation  in  the  stands  and 
on  the  sidelines  before  the 
whistle  blew  to  open  the  2(X)7 
season. 

The  Presidents  kicked  off 
to  open  the  game,  and  the 
defense,  after  allowing  a  first 
down,  forced  the  Bulldogs  to 
punt  the  ball  away.  After 
getting  the  ball  back  at  their 
own  34-yiird  line,  sophomore 
quarterback  Lance  Peterson 
(10ofl5.7()yiu-ds.twolNTs) 
was  the  first  of  the  two  new 
QBs  to  come  off  the  sidelines. 
Peterson,  taking  the  spot  held 
by  Matt  Boyle  for  the  last 
two  seasons,  handed  the  ball 
off  on  consecutive  plays  to 
running  back  Diego 
Arredondo.  Arredondo 
gained  four  yards  on  first 
down  and  1 1  yards  on  second 
down  moving  the  ball  across 
midfield  and  into  Bulldog 
territory. 

After  being  stopped  for 
no  gain  on  first-and-10, 
Peterson  could  not  connect 
via  the  air  on  second  and 


third  tlown,  and  the 
Presidents  were  forced  to 
punt  tile  ball  back  lo  Canton. 
Starting  at  their  own  I.S-yard 
line.  Canton  sSlephon.larvis 
rusheil  lor  12  yards  on  third

.'S.'^-yards  down  the  sidelines 
to  |iiit  Canton  up  6-0.  A 
botched  snap  on  the  point 
after  attempt  was  picked  up 
by  the  Bulldog  kicker  and 
run  into  the  end  /.one  for  a  2- 
point  conversion.  With  43 
seconds  left  in  the  opening 
quarter,  the  Bulldogs  led  8- 
0. 

"The  kid's  a  heck  of  a 
player,"  said  Quincy  head 
ball  coach  Bob  Noble.  "We 
had  him  for  a  four  or  five 
yard  loss  on  that  play,  and  he 
bounced  off  him  for  a 
touchdown." 

Looking  to  maintain  the 
momentum  from  Guyton's 
electrifying  run.  Canton 
attempted  an  onside  kick  on 
the  ensuing  kickoff .  EJ  Louis 
recovered  the  kick  for  Quincy 
and  the  Presidents  started 
their  second  drive  in  great 
field  position  at  their  own 
3y-yard  line.  A  3-yard  pass 
from  Peterson  to  Arredondo 
ended  the  first  quarter. 

Quincy  started  the  second 
quarter  with  a  5-yard  shovel 
pass  from  Peterson  to  Joe 
Reggiannini,  but  on  third- 
and-2,  Quincy  failed  to  get 
the  first  and  were  forced  to 
punt  for  the  second  time  in  as 
many  drives. 

Canton,  starring  at  a  first- 
and-10  from  just  inside  their 
30-yard  line,  went  back  to 
the  well.  Guy  ton  took  a  third 
down  handoff  over  the  right 


side  of  his  offensive  line  and 
found  iu>thing  but  open-space 
in  front  t)f  him.  66  yards  later 
he  was  celebrating  his  second 
touchdown  of  the  first  half 
and  the  Bulldogs  were  up  1  .*>- 
0. 

()Liincy  flashed  a  new 
oHeiisive  set  when  they 
retook  the  field  with  7;401efl 
in  ihe  opening  half.  Starting 
from  his  own  36-yard  line, 
junior  t|uarterback  Mark 
Gilbody  (2  for  2,  35  yards, 
four  carries,  3S  yards)  broke 
the  huddle  and  handed  off  to 
junior  running  back  Ma.x 
Devoe  for  a  five-yard  gain. 
Devoe  took  the  second  down 
handoff  up  the  middle  for 
seven  yards  and  a  first  down, 
and  the  Presidents  were  on 
the  move.  But  a  three  and  out 
on  their  next  set  of  downs 
ended  a  promising  drive. 

The  two  QB  look  Quincy 
used  in  the  game  is  a  strategy 
that  Noble  and  his  staff  may 
use  all  season  as  a  way  to 
give  defenses  a  different  look 
and  as  a  way  to  allow  both 
players  the  chance  to  help 
the  offense.  Peterson  is  more 
of  a  thrower  and  Gilbody  can 
do  damage  with  both  his  arm 
and  legs. 

"Both  of  them  have 
different  attributes  and 
qualities  that  we  try  to  take 
advantage  of,"  said  Noble. 
"Gilbody  can  do  some 
damage  with  his  legs  and 
Peterson  is  more  of  a 
thrower." 

After  the  next  Canton 
drive  was  stopped  by  some 
nice  defensive  plays  from 
linebackers  Matt  Oriol  and 
Brian  McGee,  Peterson  went 
back  out  onto  the  field.  A 
three-yard  loss  on  first  down 
was  followed  by  a  8-yard 
completion  to  Arredondo  and 
a    first    down   catch    by

Storming  out  of  the  locker

boisterous  home  crowd. 
Quincy  literally  dropped  the 
ball  on  the  ensuing  kickoff. 
A  fumble  by  the  kick- 
returnee  resulted  in  excellent 
field  position  for  the 
Bulldogs. 

Guyton  reeled  off  1 3  yards

North  Looks  To  Build 
From  Somerville  Loss 


(Cont'd  From  Page  19) 

Down  14-7  to  begin  the 
third  quarter.  North  muffed 
the  second  half  kickoff  and 
had  to  start  the  drive  deep  in 
their  own  zone.  Following 
two  marginal  running  plays 
by  Cahill  and  Valpando,  the 
Raiders  faced  a  third-and- 
long.  Martin  took  a  three- 
step  drop,  surveyed  the 
defense  and  tried  to  squeeze 
a  throw  into  heavy  coverage. 
The  ball  was  intercepted  and 
Somerville  had  first-and-10 
from  the  NQ  21 -yard  hne. 

The  mistake  quickly 
became  costly.  On  third 
down,  running  back  Chetan 
Sharma  raced  14  yards  for 
the  touchdown.  The  extra 
point  attempt  was  blocked, 
but  the  20  unanswered  points 
put  up  by  the  Highlanders 
made  the  score  20-7. 

"We  can  not  put  ourselves 
in  those  kinds  of  spots,"  said 
Connor.  "We  can  not  beat 


ourselves  and  turnovers  will 
do  just  that.  But  I  hked  the 
resiliency  that  our  team 
showed  even  after  we  went 
down  20-7.  Our  next  drive 
gives  us  hope  that  we  can  get 
better." 

That  next  drive  was  a  16- 
play,  69-yard  effort  that  was 
finished  off  by  a  4-yard 
touchdown  run  from  Cahill 
(his  second  of  the  game).  The 
drive  took  up  nine  minutes 
plus  and  put  the  score  at  20- 
14  with  just  under  a  minute 
gone  in  the  fourth  quarter. 
The  biggest  play  on  the  drive 
was  a  13-yard  completion 
from  Martin  to  tight  end 
Marcellus  Lee  on  fourth-and- 
1 0  from  the  Highlanders'  20- 
yard  line. 

On  their  ensuing  drive, 
Somerville  closed  the  door 
on  any  thoughts  of  a  North 
Quincy  comeback  with  a 
clock  killing,  15-play  (all 
running)  scoring  drive  that 


ended  with  a  1-yard 
quarterback  sneak  for  a 
touchdown.  The  Highlanders 
converted  three  times  on  third 
down  to  keep  the  clock  and 
the  ball  moving,  and  after  a 
successful  two-point 
conversion,  the  score  was  28- 
14. 

"If  we  make  one  stop  on 
that  drive,  all  of  a  sudden  it's 
a  game,"  Connor  mused. 
"One  stop  and  all  of  a  sudden 
we  get  the  ball  back  and  we 
are  driving  back  down  field 
for  the  winning  score.  We 
are  starting  to  get  there.  One 
win  and  we  will  get  our 
confidence.  Our  running 
game  and  overall  intensity 
are  some  of  the  positives  we 
can  take  into  our  game  next 
week."

Pointers  For  Parents 


by  Andrea  Wyatt 

BMI  vs.  Body  Fat 
Percentage 

9  .What  is  the  differ- 
•  ence  between  the 
y  mass  index  and  body 
fat  percentage?  And 
which  is  more  important? 

A.TTie  body  mass  index 
•  and  body  fat  percent- 
age are  two  assessments 
designed  to  identify  health 
risk  factors.  Each  assess- 
ment has  a  purpose  and  each 
can  be  used  to  help  you  stay 
focused  on  your  fitness 
goals. 

The  body  mass  index 
(BMI)  is  an  equation  that 
gives  you  a  numerical  rating 
of  your  health  status  based 
on  your  height  and  weight. 
Ratings  are  categorized  as 
"Underweight,"  "Recom- 
mended," "Overweight" 
and  "Obese."  .Assessing 
BMI  is  as  simple  as  looking 
at  a  BMI  chart  or  using  a 
computer  BMI  calculator. 
Just  input  your  height  and 
weight  to  get  your  rating. 

BMI  numbers  in  the  over- 
weight and  obese  ranges  can 
identify  the  risk  for  diseases 
associated  with  being  over- 
weight such  as  heart  dis- 
ease, diabetes  and  even  cer- 
tain cancers. 

Since  BMI  lumps  all  body 
mass  (fat  and  lean)  together, 
it  is  often  not  considered  as 
valuable  an  assessment  as 
body  fat  percentage  because 
it  docs  not  take  into  account 
the  weight  of  lean  body 
mass. 

Body  fat  percentage  is  an 
estimate  of  your  total  body 
mass,  both  essential  fat 
mass  and  nonessential  (stor- 
age) fat  mass.  Essential 
body  fat  is  needed  for  the 
body  to  maintain  life  and 
reproductive         functions. 


Nonessential  body  fat  is 
storage  fat  that  is  an  accu- 
mulation of  fat  tissue  in 
excess  of  essential  fat. 

In  the  obese  range  (above 
32  percent  for  women, 
above  26  percent  for  men), 
body  fat  percentage  can  also 
suggest  potential  health  nsk 
just  as  BMI  does.  However, 
body  fat  percentage  deter- 
mines the  amount  of  your 
body's  fat  mass,  not  ju.st 
total  body  mass  as  with 
BMI.  Many  find  this  more 
useful  because  it  can  help 
you  realize  that  although 
you  may  be  at  a  "healthy" 
weight,  your  f)ercentage  of 
body  fat  may  suggest  that 
for  your  weight,  too  much 
of  your  total  body  mass  is 
nonessential  fat. 

Body  fat  percentage  is 
determined  through  many 
methods,  with  the  most  pop- 
ular being  skin-fold  mea- 
surements (using  skin-fold 
calipers)  and  bioelectric 
impedance.  The  accuracy  of 
body  fat  testing  can  vary  by 
up  to  8  percent  (plus  or 
minus)  depending  on  the 
testing  form  selected  and 
the  test  facilitator. 

Both  BMI  and  body  fat 
percentage  have  a  place  in 
assessing  health  risk  factors 
and  providing  a  benchmark 
to  set  fitness  and  lifestyle 
goals.  Consider  both  as  one 
part  of  your  fitness  assess- 
ment routine,  remembering 
the  purpose  of  each  assess- 
ment. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  If  you 
have  a  fitness  or  training 
question,  write  Andrea  in

SIGNIFICANT  IMPACT 

The  cone-shaped  canine      welcoming  parents  and  their 


teeth  ("eye  teeth")  are  the 
onl>  teeth  in  the  mouth  w  ith 
a  single  cusp.  This  character- 
istic, coupled  with  the  fact 
that  their  roots  are  extra  long 
and  large,  makes  them  par- 
ticularly useful  for  piercing 
and  tearing  food.  Ordinarily, 
these  unique  teeth  erupt  as 
pennanent  teeth  KMween  the 
ages  of  1 1  and  12.  However, 
if  a  child  shows  no  sign  of 
canine  eruption  by  age  13. 
the  teeth  may  be  impacted. 
This  problem  may  be  de- 
tected initially  by  feeling 
above  the  gums  in  young  pa- 
tients, followed  by  an  x-ray 
examination  to  substantiate  a 
diagnosis.  The  dentist  can 
then  extract  the  primary  tooth 
that  stands  in  the  way  and 
guide  the  pennanent  tooth 
into  its  proper  position! 

Our  friendly  and  profes- 
sional staff  takes  pleasure  in 


children  to  our  office.  We  en- 
courage \  ou  to  talk  to  us  alxHit 
oral  issues.  Your  health  is  our 
first  pnority.  Preventing  den- 
tal disease  is  less  costly  and 
more  rewarding  than  correct- 
ing the  problem  once  it  oc- 
curs. We  will  show  you  how 
to  care  for  your  teeth,  .After 
all,  teaching  you  how  to  pre- 
vent dental  disease  is  our  pri- 
niarv  goal.  We  provide  qual- 
ity, personal  dental  care  in  a 
comfortable,  immaculate, 
professional  environment  at

Knowing  Where  Germs  Hide 


( NAPS )  -  Knowing  where 
germs  hide  can  help  keep 
your  family  safe.  Yet  a  recent 
survey  spanning  lOcountrics 
found  that  Americans  are 
surprisingly  unaware  of  the 
places  where  their  kids  are 
most  likely  to  come  into 
contact  with  germs. 

Only  5  percent  of 
Americans  identified  the 
home,  as  the  place  where 
children  are  most  likely  to 
catch  an  infection,  when,  in 
fact,  studies  show  there  is  a 
greater  risk  of  transmission 
in  the  home  than  outside. 
Worse,  a  mere  3  percent  were 
aware  that  the  bathtub  is  one 
of  the  germiest  spots  in  the 
house. 

LYSOL  sponsored  the 
survey  as  part  of  a  Hygiene 

Fitness  Facts 


Council  effort  to  educate  the 

public  on  the  importance  of 

hygiene. 

Where  The  Cierms  Are 
Here's  a  look  at  where  the 

Hygiene  Council  says  germs 

live: 

•  The  Bathtub:  A  study 
found  the  germ  most 
commonly  responsible  for 
serious  staph  infections  to  be 
in  26  percent  of  bathtubs 
versus  6  percent  of  garbage 
cans. 

•The  Kitchen  Countertop: 
Counters  can  harbor  more 
bacteria  than  the  toilet  seat. 

•  The  Kitchen  Floor:  The 
floors  can  have  more  than 
10,000  bacteria  per  square 
foot. 

•  The  Bathroom  Light 
Switch:  The  switch  has  as 


many  bacteria  as  the  garbage 
can. 

•  The  Bathroom 
Countertop:  The  sink  and 
faucet  handles  have  more 
bacteria  than  the  toilet  .seat. 

•  Toys:  Toys  host  a 
dangerous  range  of  bacteria. 

Avoiding  Germs 

The  Council  recommends 
the  following  good  hygiene 
practices: 

•  Hand  Washing:  Wash 
hands  regularly,  especially 
after  going  to  the  toilet,  before 
and  after  preparing  food,  after 
touching  animals  and  if  a 
family  member  is  ill.  Use 
soap  and  water  and  dry 
thoroughly. 

•  Surface  Disinfection: 
Commonly  touched  surfaces 


should  be  regularly 
disinfected  with  products 
such  as  LYSOL  Disinfectant 
Spray.  Kitchen  surfaces 
should  also  be  cleaned  and 
disinfected  before  and  after 
preparing  food. 

•  Proper  Food  Handling: 
To  avoid  food-borne  illness, 
cook  and  store  food  at  the 
proper  temperature;  separate 
raw  meats  from  fresh  produce 
and  packaged  goods;  and 
regularly  disinfect  surfaces 
to  prevent  cross 

contamination.

Space  Age  Workout  Is  Out  Of  This  World 


(NAPS)  -  Staying  fit 
when  you're  galaxies  away 
hinges  on  keeping  your  entire 
body  in  top  form.  So  when 
researchers  at  the  NASA- 
founded  national  Space 
Biomedical  Research 
Institute  sought  a  fitness 
regimen  that  would  build 
astronauts'  bone  and  muscle 
strength  and  promote  healthy 
blood  flow,  they  quickly 
realized  that  rowing  would 
provide  the  best  solution. 

It's  a  great  way  to  exercise 
the  entire  body  and  stay  heart- 
healthy.  In  fact,  it  might  just 
be  the  best  exercise  in  the 

Women  s  Health: 


universe. 

"We  choose  indoor 
rowing  for  several  reasons," 
said  head  researcher  Dr. 
Benjamin  Levine.  "It  uses  a 
large  muscle  mass,  and  it  is 
nonimpact  so  there  are  low 
chances  for  injury.  Because 
of  the  unique  cardiovascular 
static  and  dynamic  work, 
rowers  have  the  largest  hearts 
of  any  competitive  athlete." 

But  indoor  rowing  isn't 
just  for  space  travelers. 
People  of  all  ages  and  fitness 
levels  can  benefit  from  the 
full-body  workout-and  bum 
300  calories  in  just  20 


minutes! 

"Indoor  rowing  machines 
challenge  you  at  every  level, 
yet  the  low-impact  nature  of 
the  workout  makes  rowing 
accessible  for  people  of  all 
ages  and  abilities,"  said 
Concept2  co-founder  Peter 
Dreissigacker. 

To  stimulate  the 
astronauts'  workout,  start 
with  a  "base-training 
session"  by  rowing  at  a 
moderate  pace  (you  should 
be  able  to  hold  a  conversation 
during  this  stage). 

For  more  of  a  challenge, 
increase  the  pace.  Astronauts 
call  this  "threshold  training" 


because  it  requires  maximum 
sustainable  effort. 

End  your  workout  with  a 
real  push,  rowing  hard  for 
one  to  three  minutes  for 
"interval  training"  and 
capping  off  with  a  "recovery 
session"  -  rowing  one  final 
long  distance  at  a  lower 
intensity. 

After  that  you'll  feel  fit 
enough  to  travel  to  the  moon 
and  back. 

Concept2  offers  two 
indoor  rowers  -  the  Model  D 
and  the  Model  E  -  through  its 
website, 
www.concept2.com.  The 
company's  rowers  can  also 
be  found  at  most  health  clubs . 


Reducing  Breast 
Cancer  Risk 


Red  Cross  CPR, 
First  Aid  Courses 


(NAPS)  -  Research  from 
the  University  of 
Pennsylvania  School  oi' 
Medicine  found  that  black 
cohosh/Remifemin  can  lower 
the  risk  of  breast  cancer  by  as 
much  as  60  percent. 

Researchers  looked  for 
correlations  between  dietary 
supplement  usage  and  the 
incidence  of  breast  cancer, 
comparing  products 

including  phytoestrogens, 
isotlavones,  red  clover,  soy. 
black  cohosh  and  others. 

Fifteen     out     of     17 


supplements  produced  no 
significant  results.  But 
women  using  black  cohosh/ 
Remifemin  had  a  much  lower 
risk  of  developing  breast 
cancer  than  did  women  who 
didn't  use  it. 

Proprietary  Remifemin. 
the  world's  most  researched 
black  cohosh  extract,  is 
considered  safe  for  women 
w  ho  should  not  take  estrogen.

Project  Teamwork  A  Success 

During  the  summer,  the  Quincy  Police  Department  uti- 
lized a  community  grant  to  develop  recreation  programs  for 
Quincy  youths  at  both  Sterling/Kincaide  and  Merrymount 
Park. 

With  the  assistance  of  Mayor  William  Phelan,  Police  Chief 
Robert  Crowley,  Recreation  Director  Barry  Welch  and  Park 
Department  Director  Mark  Jaehnig,  organized  activities  were 
provided  by  police  officers  and  recreation  leaders  on  a  nightly 
basis.  This  new  program  started  out  slow,  but  once  word 
was  out  that  police  officers  were  there,  youths  of  all  ages 
were  drawn  to  the  parks. 

The  officers  were  dre.ssed  casually  to  participate  with  rec- 
reation leaders  and  local  youth  in  a  wide  range  of  activities. 
The  program  also  encouraged  youths  to  come  to  the  park 
and  "just  hang  out"  in  a  place  they  wouldn't  get  into  any 
mischief. 

Sgt.  James  McNeil  of  the  Quincy  Police  Department  di- 
rected this  innovative  program  and  Officer  Christine  Hurton 
was  responsible  for  obtaining  the  grant. 

Many  compliments  were  received  from  residents  in  the 
Sterling/Kincaide  area  about  how  quiet  the  neighborhood 
was  all  summer.  Similarly,  merchants  and  neighbors  respec- 
tively commented  that  Wollaston  Center  and  the  surround- 
ing homes  of  Merrymount  Park  were  quieter. 

Many  parents  liked  the  idea  that  they  could  leave  their 
children  at  the  parks,  knowing  they  were  safe  and  were  be- 
ing offered  the  opportunity  to  participate  in  events. 

The  Quincy  Police  Department  hopes  to  expand  the  pro- 
gram next  year  if  funding  is  available.

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Tuosdav.  .Aug.  2S  at  a|ipio\imatoly  6  p.m.,  Ol- 
ticcrSlcNcn  Kcll\  was  dispalchcil  lolhc  area  of  Duiikin" 
Doiuils  111  Wollastiin  Center  on  a  report  oi  a  male  im 
pci siMiatmg  a  police  i>liicer 
while  harassing  lour  girls, 
.As  llic  otiicer  appii>achcd 
ihc  aiVii,  he  spotted  the  lour 
girls,  who  were  jiointing  at 
the  male  suspect  iiearh\. 

Officer  Kelly  nolctl  the 
suspect  was  \elling  at  the 
gii  Is  w  hen  he  inilled  up.  He 
also  recogm/ed  the  suspect 
rn>in  an  earlier  inculent  m 
the  week,  wheie  he  was  act- 
ing irrational.  I'he  girls  tokl 

OlTicer  KelK  the  siisivcl  appioaeheil  them  and  idcnii 
lied  himself  as  a  |>olice  officer,  then  touched  oni:  of  ilie 
gill's  shoulder  while  asking  hei  where  she  lived.  She 
pulled  away  anil  asked  him  to  show  his  police  badge, 
ami  when  he  tailed  to  do  this,  she  believed  he  was  ly- 
ing. 

Another  victim  said  she  was  with  friends  in  fiont  o\ 
Papa  (lino's  restaurant,  when  the  suspect  approached 
them,  identified  himself  as  a  police  officer  and  asked 
for  their  names,  addresses,  place  ol  employment  and  to 
see  their  "working  papers."  This  victim  also  stated  the 
suspect  touched  her  shoulder  as  he  questioned  her.  us- 
ing the  term,  "Five-O,"  which  is  slang  for  police  of- 
ficer. 

When  asked  to  see  a  badge,  the  suspect  reiterated  he 
was  a  police  officer,  but  did  not  show  a  badge.  One  of 
the  victims  said  she  gave  a  fake  name  because  she  was 
so  afraid.  The  victim  said  she  and  her  friends  were  very 
frightened  and  began  walking  away  from  the  suspect, 
heading  towards  Dunkin'  Donuts.  She  said  the  suspect 
followed  them,  continuously  telling  them  he  was  a  po- 
lice officer  and  needed  their  information. 

As  the  victims  approached  Dunkin"  Donuts,  they  saw 
a  male  friend  and  told  him  that  a  man  claiming  lo  be  a 
police  officer  was  followmg  them.  The  male  friend  de- 
scribed the  victims  to  Officer  Kelly  as  being  "frantic 
and  afraid."  As  the  suspect  got  closer,  the  male  friend 
stood  between  him  and  the  victims  and  instructed  the 
suspect  to  back  off  and  leave  the  girls  alone.  The  sus- 
pect then  identified  himself  as  a  police  officer  again, 
then  pushed  the  male  friend  in  the  chest  and  spit  at  him. 

An  employee  at  Dunkin'  Donuts  was  t)utside  taking 
a  break  when  he  observed  the  suspect  yelling  at  the 
group,  "Quincy  Police,  where  iu'c  your  working  papers .'" 
The  employee  went  inside  and  called  the  police  station 
to  report  the  incident. 

Officer  Kelly  spoke  with  the  suspect,  who  stated  that 
he  was  "connected"  and  worked  for  a  drug  task  force, 
demanding  the  group  he  was  following  be  arrested.  The 
suspect  denied  identifying  himself  as  a  police  officer. 
When  asked  why  he  pushed  the  male  friend,  the  sus- 
pect said,  "That  punk  got  in  my  face." 

The  suspect,  a  .'S I -year-old  Weymouth  resident,  was 
arrested  and  charged  with  disorderly  conduct  and  im- 
personating a  police  officer. 

Nice  work' 

In  this  case,  the  girls  handled  the  situation  well  by 
sta\  iiig  together  in  a  well-lit,  \  isihle  localion.  They  knew 
something  was  wrong  when  the  suspect  put  his  hantl  on 
lliciii  and  he  was  not  acling  professionalK.  'IhcN  ques- 
tioiieil  aulliorit}  h\  asking  to  see  his  badge. 

Just  looking  at  the  badge  is  noi  enough'  Hxamine 
the  photo  ulenliricaiion  and  the  police  agencv  this  per- 
son works  tor  to  determine  authenticity.  lortunatel>.  llie 
situation  did  not  escalate. 

What  would  you  do  it  you  were  alone  and  the  sus 
pect  approached  >ou .'  fell  the  "otticer"  that  \ou  want  a 
unilormetl  police  officer  on  scene.  It  this  does  not  hap 
pen,  got  into  a  business  and  stop  someone  going  h\  and 
call  "91 1 ."  Usually,  a  suspect  will  flee  when  challenged 
and  there  is  a  chance  that  he  will  he  caught. 

When  in  doubt,  call  "91 1"  and  tell  the  dispatcher  the 
circumstances  and  he/she  will  be  able  to  confirm  if  the 
person  is  a  police  oflicer.  Remember,  it's  okay  to  ques- 
tion someone  who  produces  a  badge  and  photo  identifi- 
cation, especially  if  there  is  no  uniformed  officer  and/ 
or  marked  police  cruiser  on  scene.

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  A  change  that  you'd 
hoped  for  is  down  the  line. 
But  you  still  need  to  be 
patient  until  more  explana- 
tions are  forthcoming.  Con- 
tmue  to  keep  your  enthusi- 
asm in  check. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Your  social  life  expands 
as  new  friends  come  into 
your  life.  But  while  you're 
having  fun,  your  practical 
side  also  sees  some  positive 
business  potential  within 
your  new  circle. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Your  workplace  situation 
continues  to  improve.  Look 
for  advantages  you  might 
have  missed  while  all  the 
changes  were  going  on 
around  you.  That  trusted  col- 
league can  help. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Resist  the  urge  to  hunker 
down  in  your  bunker  until 
things  ease  up.  Instead,  get 
rid  of  that  woe-is-me  attitude 
by  getting  up  and  getting  out 
to  meet  old  friends  and  make 
new  ones. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Now  that  you're  back  enjoy- 
ing the  spotlight  again,  you 
should  feel  re-energized  and 
ready  to  take  on  the  challenge 
of  bringing  those  big,  bold 
plans  of  vours  to  completion. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  A  former  friend 
would  like  to  repair  a  rela- 
tionship you  two  once 
enjoyed.  Your  positive 
response  could  have  an 
equally  positive  impact  on 
your  life.  Think  about  it. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Resist  making 
impulsive  decisions.  Stay  on 
that  steady  course  as  you 
continue  to  work  out  work- 
place problems.  Be  patient. 
All  will  soon  be  back  in  bal- 
ance. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  2 1 )  You  might  feel 
confident  about  taking  a 
promising  offer,  but  continue 
to  be  alert  for  what  you're  not 
being  told  about  it.  Don't 
fret.  Time  is  on  your  side. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21 )  Peo- 
ple dear  to  you  might  be  plan- 
ning a  way  to  show  apprecia- 
tion for  all  you've  done  for 
them.  Accept  the  honor  gra- 
ciously. Remember:  You 
deserve  it. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Congratu- 
lations. Your  self-confidence 
is  on  the  rise.  This  could  be  a 
good  time  to  tackle  those 
bothersome  situations  you've 
avoided  both  at  home  and  at 
work. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  You  feel  oblig- 
ated to  return  a  favor.  (Of 
course,  you  do.)  But  heed 
advice  from  those  close  to 
you  and  do  nothing  until  you  , 
know  for  sure  what's  being 
asked  of  you. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Your  loving  reas- 
surance helped  revive  a  once- 
moribund  relationship.  But 
be  wary  of  someone  who 
might  try  to  do  something 
negative  to  reverse  this  posi- 
tive turn  of  events. 

BORN  THIS  WT:EK:  You 
are  a  wonderful  matchmaker 
who  can  bring  people  togeth- 
er to  form  long-lasting  rela- 
tionships.

make  economic  sense  and  are  increasing 
every  year. . . 
There  are  many  reasons  for  pre-arranjj- 

ing  a  funeral More  than  anything  else, 

one  makes  pre-arrangements  because  of 
those  the.v  love.  It  removes  from  the  family 
the  burden  of  making  important  decisions 
at  one  of  the  most  difTicult  times  in  their 
lives.  It  makes  one's  wishes  known.  The  family  knows  w  hat  to  do . 
. .  It  ea.ses  the  concern  as  to  'is  this  what  he  or  she  would  want?"

0  glorious  Apostle,  St.  Jude 
Thaddeus,  faithful  servant 
and  friend  of  Jesus,  the 
name  of  the  traitor  has 
caused  you  to  be  forgotten 
by  many,  but  the  Church  in- 
vokes you  universally  as  the 
patron  of  hopeless  causes 
and  things  despaired  of; 
Pray  for  me  that  I  may  re- 
ceive the  consolations  and 
succor  of  Heaven  in  all  my 
necessities,  tribulations  and 
sufferings,  particularly 
(make  your  request  here) 
and  that  I  may  bless  God 
with  you  and  all  the  elect 
throughout  eternity.  Amen.

"There  will  also  be  coin-

"I  envision  this  complex

'It's  too  beautilul  a  space

that  will  include  otlice  space

Mary  Smith  ol  the  Plan-

signed a  conceptual  plan  to 
promote  discussion  at  the 
Senior  Conference  this 
weekend. 

"The  feedback  we  have 
received  to  date  has  been 
overwhelmingly  positive," 
said  Phelan.  "I  think  every-

the  location.

(Cont'd  from  Piii^i'  I ) 

Koch  said  the  plan 
couples  immediate  action  on 
the  most  pressing  issues  with 
long-term  planning  <o  meet 
the  city's  needs  in  coming 
years.  The  "Leadership 
Now"  program  will  cover 
"every  challenge  our  city 
faces,"  in  coming  weeks, 
Koch  said.  A  full  and  detailed 
version  of  Koch's  plan  can 
be  found  on  the  candidate's 
website, 
www.kochforquincy.com  or 
by  calling  617-773-5624. 

The  plan  calls  for: 

Changes  to  the  city's  zon- 
ing code  that  will  limit  resi- 
dential development  to  one 
or  two  units  in  neighbor- 
hoods currently  zoned  as 
"Residence  B. "  Any  larger 
proposal  will  require  ap- 
pro\  al  from  the  zttning  board

A  call  to  the  'Best  of 
Quincy,"  architects,  plan- 
ners, residents  and  public 
officials  to  develop  long- 
term  development  guide- 
lines, including  additional 
changes  to  the  city's  zoning 
code.  Recommendations  to 
be  released  publicly  no  later 
than  Jan.  1,2008. 

Koch  contrasted  his  plan. 


which  he  framed  as  "a  start- 
ing point,  not  a  dictate," 
about  the  city's  future  with 
what  he  described  as  Mayor 
William  Phelan's  "trou- 
bling" record  on  traffic  and 
development  over  the  last 
several  years. 

Koch  said  Phelan  allowed 
the  traffic  engineer's  job  to 
remain  vacant  for  nearly  two 
years;  let  traffic  systems 
around  the  city  deteriorate 
because  of  a  lack  of  atten- 
tion; ignored  overdevelop- 
ment in  neighborhoods  for 
four  years,  and  forced  the 
City  Council  to  take  the  lead 
on  the  issue  with  a  one-year 
ban  on  multi-family  housing 
developments;  and  ap- 
pointed a  "smart  zoning 
committee"  in  January.  2006 
that  has  produced  no  results 
20  months  later. 

Koch,  who  worked  under 
Phelan  for  five  years  as  Park 
Commissioner  before  resign- 
ing in  January  \.o  run  for 
mayor,  said  the  traffic  and 
develoninent  proposal  was 
developed  through  discus- 
sions with  several  planners, 
architects,  residents  and 
other  experts  over  the  last 
several  months. 

"We  have  a  huge  respon- 
sibility today  to  shape  the 
Quincy  we  want  for  tomor- 
row, and  it  is  time  for  lead- 
ership," Koch  said.

The  year-long  rehabilita-

Beach  will  he  completed 
within  a  week  and  the  popu-

place  as  what  Rep.  Bruce 
Avers  called  ""the  jewel  of  the

The  planning  on  the  Rice

Although  the  project  ex- 
tended longer  than  antici- 
pated, the  city's  legislative 
delegation  expressed  satis- 
faction with  the  result. 

"The  new  and  improved 
Wollaston  Beach  will  be  the 
jewel  of  the  city  and  could 
not  ha\e  been  accomplished 
without  the  hard  work  and 
cooperation  of  many  resi- 
dents and  state  agencies, "" 
said  Ayers. 

"This  is  far  more  than 
simply  aesthetically  pleas- 


ing, the  beach  should  draw 
local  residents  and  thciefoic

"A  group  ol  ticdicated

Acacia  Rizzo  Benefit  Sept.  30 

She  Is  Just  16  And  Needs 
Double  Lung  Transplant 


Sixteen-year-old  Acacia 
Ri//o  is  now  wailing  in 
Pittsburgh  lor  a  double  lung 
transplant  to  help  her  fight  a 
rare  blood  disorder  that  has 
damaged  her  lungs. 

Now  Acacia  and  her 
single  mother  Lisa  must  cope 
not  only  with  the  worry  of 
waiting  and  the  medical 
procedures,  but  also  the 
medical  bills  and  living 
expenses.  The  operation  will 
take  place  at  University  of 
Pittsburgh  Medical  Center  in 
Pittsburgh,  PA. 

To  help  them  out,  friends 
and  family  have  opened  The 
Acacia  Fund  and  will  hold  a 
silent  auction  and  raffle 
benefit  Sunday,  Sept.  30  from 
1  p.m.  to  5  at  the  Gazebo  at 
The  Best  Western  Adams  In 
n,  29  Hancock  St.,  North 
Quincy. 

Organizers  are  now 
selling  tickets  at  $25  each 
and  seeking  raffle  items  and 
donations  for  the  silent 
auction.  The  final  goal  for 
the  Acacia  Fund  is  $  1 00, 000. 

Acacia  has  Primary 
Pulmonary  Hypertension,  a 
rare  blood  vessel  disorder  that 
is  incurable  and  can  be 
deadly. 

The  disorder  affects  only 
one  in  two  million  people 
and  Acacia's  doctors  beheve 
that  double  transplants  will 
improve  her  quality  of  life, 
but  will  not  cure  her. 

Acacia  would  rather  be 
just  a  teenager  like  all  the 
other  16-year-olds  at  Carver 
High  School  where  she  just 
began  her  junior  year.  She 
dreams  of  studying  at 
Johnson  &  Wales  University 
to  become  a  chef. 

"You  would  never  know 
she  was  sick,  "said  her  uncle. 
Dean  Rizzo,  Executive 
Director  of  Quincy  2000 
Collaborative.  "She's  a  very 
strong  little  girl.  She  tries  to 
deflect  attention  from 
herself." 

Acacia  attended  high 
school  for  a  few  days  this 
year  but  she  was  struck  down 
before  she  completed  the  first 
month. 

"She  had  a  setback  and 
had  to  go  to  Children's 
Hi>spital.'"  said  Ri/zo.  The 
medical  staff  in  Boston 
immediatelv  sent  Acacia  to

A  FUNDRAISER  FOR  ACACIA  wUI  be  held  Sunday,  Sept.  30 
at  The  Gazebo  at  The  Best  Western  Adams  Inn,  29  Hancock  St., 
Quincy.  Acacia  Rizzo  is  awaiting  a  double  lung  transplant  in 
Pittsburgh. 


Pittsburgh  for  the  transplant 
operation.  "She  needs  both 
lungs." 

Acacia's  on  the  priority 
list  in  Pittsburgh.  While  she 
waits,  she  and  her  mother 
Lisa  Rizzo  must  also  worry 
about  finances.  Lisa's  an 
elementary  schoolteacher  at 
the  Lynch  School, 
Middleboro. 

A  single  parent,  Lisa 
rushed  Acacia  to  hospitals, 


time  after  time,  when  her  httle

Nt>thnig  will  change  in 
that  respect  but  the  personal 
touch  will  be  gone  next 
month.  As  o^  Oct.  31,  the 
Hancock  Street  office  will 
no  longer  be  open  on  a  daily 
basis  with  two  staff  members. 

In  fact,  there  will  be  no 
staff  members  to  meet  and 
greet,  answer  questions  or 
sign  up  volunteers.  There  will 
be  live  persons  manning  the 
Quincy  telephone  line  out  of 
a  Cambridge  office,  but  no 
one  in  Quincy. 

The  staffers  in  Quincy, 
Jacqueline  (Jackie)  Gardner, 
South  Area  Director  for  the 
American  Red  Cross  of 
Massachusetts  Bay,  and  her 
assistant,  Cindy  Stebbins, 
program  manager,  will  be 
laid  off  next  month. 


JACKIE  GARDNER 

"The  office  is  not 
closing,"  Gardner  said, 
noting  that  Red  Cross 
instructors  will  continue  to 
use  the  Quincy  office  for 
training  and  teaching  CPR, 
first  aid,  and  health  care 
basics. 

However,  Gardner  will 
leave  the  Red  Cross  office  on 
Oct.  3 1  for  the  last  time  after 
serving  24  years  as  the  local 
director.  Right  now,  she  said 


iJKit  she  has  no  plans. 
Stebbins  has  worked  there 
ihrcc  years. 

It  will  be  a  sad  day  for 
Gardner  who  believes  it  will, 
also,  he  a  sad  liay  lor  the  city. 

■Quincy  will  lose 
something  in  the  mix,  that 
personal  contact  with 
volunteers  and  businesses." 
said  Gardner  who  believes 
that  personal  contacts 
strengthen  the  Red  Cross 
presence. 

Locals  remember  the  Red 
Cross  badge  she  wore  at 
leadership  conferences, 
business  meetings  and 
Ki  wanis  Club  luncheons.  She 
believes  such  activities  keep 
people  aware  and  supportive 
of  the  Red  Cross. 

"People  forget,"  said 
Gardner  who  remembers  the 
"No  Name"  storm  of  1 99 1  as 
one  of  the  major  disasters

That  Sneaky  One 


It  sneaked  into  town  69  years  ago  tomorrow. 
No  legitimate  name.  No  warning. 

It's  remembered  simply  as  the  Hurricane  of  1 9.38  hut 
there  was  nothing  simple  about  its  fury. 

There  have  been  others  here  since.  But  they  had  real 
names  like  Carol,  Diane.  Donna.  Gloria.  Hugo.  Bob, 
Bonnie,  Danielle,  etc.  And  we  knew  they  were  coming 
ami  had  time  to  prepare. 

Hurricanes  prowling  the  Hast  Coast  were  rare  around 
i93K.  And  back  then  they  weren't  tracked  from  as  far 
away  as  .Mrica  as  they  are  with  today's  sophisticated 
technology. 

But  this  one  slipped  into  the  area  when  wo  one  was 
h>oking. 

(See  Frank  McCauley' s  Quincy 's  Yesterdays  column 
one  page  o\er  lor  the  weather  foreca.sl  for  that  day). 

Before  it  left,  it  claimed  over  600  lives  in  the  New 
l-ngiaiui  .ii"ea-fi>rtunalel\  none  in  Quinc\-and  caused 
millions  ot  dollars  in  damage. 

\o\\  could  bu\  a  pretty  nice  house  for  something  like 
S3. 000  back  then.  Considering  that,  those  millions  oi 
dollars  in  damage  w  oiild  translate  into  billions  t)f  dollars 

tod. IN  . 

The  late  Tom  Burgm,  Quincy "s 
nia\or  at  the  time,  in  an  interxiew 
remembered  it  this  ua\ : 

"It  came  in  around  5:.^0  p.m.  We 
had  nt>  ad\ance  warning.  It  just  arrived 
announced. 

"Trees  and  wires  came  crashing 
down.  Utility  poles  were  scattered 
about.  Windows  in  the  stores  dow mow  n  were  blown  in. 
Boats  were  torn  loose  off  the  yacht  clubs. 

"There  were  3.9(X)  trees  down  city-wide  and  all  the 
fire  alarm  bo.xes  and  police  boxes  were  out  of 
commission.  There  was  no  electricity. 

Burgin  called  in  the  National  Guard-for  the  first  time 
ever  here  in  peacetime. 

"We  were  afraid  of  the  stores  being  looted.  And  we 
needed  extra  help  and  patrols  in  other  areas."  he  said. 

Squantum.  Houghs  Neck  and  Germantown  were  cut 
off  from  the  rest  of  the  city  by  mountainous  high 
flooding  tides. 

Winds  were  90  to  100  miles  per  hour  with  gusts 
topping  that  at  1 20  or  more. 

"As  I  remember."  Burgin  said,  "the  eye  of  the 
hurricane  came  right  over  Quincy. 

"It  took  us  weeks  to  recover  and  get  back  to  normal. 
It  was  a  horrible  storm  and  certainly  left  a  lasting 
impression  on  me.  I  will  never  forget  it." 

The  East  Coast  in  recent  years  has  been  spared 
.Mother  Nature's  fury  as  hurricanes  like  Katrina  went 
elsewhere. 

It  wasn't  until  1953  that  the  National  Hurricane 
Center  began  using  female  names  for  hunicanes  and  in 
1 979  started  alternating  betu  een  female  and  male  names. 

But  that  no  name  one  in  1938  is  still  one  of  the

biggest  and  best  remembered  hurricanes. 

□ 
WONDERING  WHAT  THOSE  campaign  posters 
for  Mayor  William  Phelan  are  doing  in  the  Bank  of 
America  building  in  Quincy  Square? 
The  signs  are  in  the  street-floor 
windows  on  the  Chestnut  Street  side 
of  the   bank  because  the   Phelan 
committee  has  rented  the  unoccupied 
space       as        its 
campaign 
headquarters. 
The  campaign  headquarters  for 
Tom  Koch,  who  is  challenging  Phelan, 
is  at  680  Hancock  St..  Wollaston.  in 
the  former  Wollaston  Credit  Union 
building.

up  Thursday.  Sept.  27. 

One  for  Ward  6  Councillor  Brian  McNamee.  5:30  to

McNamee  is  seeking  his  second 
term  in  the  Ward  6  seat.  Suggested 
contribution  for  his  event  is  $50. 

Logue.  former  executive  director  of  DiscoverQuincy 
and  daughter  of  former  Mayor  Frank  McCauley,  is 
making  her  first  run  for  elective  office.  Tickets  for  her 
reception  are  $50  and  available  at  the  door. 

□ 
NICE  GESTURE  DEPT:  Uncle  Sam  Rounseville 
was  asked  to  be  a  greeter  mingling 
with  the  crowd  that  attended  the  recent 
AARP  Conference  at  the  Boston 
Convention  Center. 

When  it  was  over,  he  was  handed  a 
check  for  $500.  In  the  tradition  of 
Uncle  Sam,  he  turned  it  over  to  the 
Quincy  Public  Schools  Partnership  to 
go  toward  scholarships. 

OOPS!  Last  week  we  mentioned  that  Susan  and 
Frank  Strazzula  are  extras  in  a  wedding  reception  scene 
in  the  new  movie  "STIFFS." 

Only  instead  of  reporting  that  they  live  in  Squantum, 
we  accidentally  moved  them  to  Hull. 

Don't  know  how  we  did  it  but  we're  sorry  for  the 
mix-up.

Scenes  From  Yesterday

THIS  SEPTEMBER  1938  real  photo  postcard  is  a  view 
of  Flynt  Street  looking  south  from  Billings  Road  in  Nor- 
folk Downs.  The  devastation  of  the  infamous  1938  New 
England  hurricane  can  be  seen  in  the  fallen  trees  and 
raised  sidewalks.  At  the  Great  Blue  Hill  observatory, 
only  five  miles  from  Flynt  Street,  wind  gusts  were  re- 
corded at  186  miles-per-hour.  While  the  elevation  of  the 
observatory  is  over  600  feet  higher  than  Norfolk  Downs, 
wind  gusts  here  were  estimated  to  be  over  120  mph. 
There  was  little  or  no  warning  of  this  severe  storm  as  it 


approached  New  England  and  Long  Island.  Its  devas- 
tation killed  688  people  and  damaged  over  75,000  build- 
ings. Quincy  lost  hundreds  of  its  beautiful  Elm  trees  as 
shown  here,  and  it  took  months  to  clear  the  trees  and 
repair  the  damage  to  sidewalks,  power  lines  and  build- 
ings. The  photo  for  this  postcard  was  taken  by  a  resi- 
dent who  lived  in  the  house  marked  by  the  asterisk  in 
the  left  center.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

Sal  Bids  Fond  Farewell 


Tm  starting  to  feel  like 
Bob  Hope  singing  "Thanks 
for  the  Memories."  Shortly. 
I  will  be  leaving  the  City  of 
Quincy,  crossing  back  over 
the  Neponset  Bridge. 

Nearly,  23  1/2  years  ago, 
I  left  Charlestown  for 
Quincy,  Wollaston  to  be  ex- 
act. The  South  Shore  has 
been  a  part  of  my  life  so  long; 
I  have  mixed  feelings  about 
leaving.  I  won't  be  far  away. 
Just  over  the  bridge  in  the 
Clam  Point  neighborhood  of 
Dorchester. 

I've     enjoyed     doing 


Quincy  politics.  1  remember 
fondly  my  run  for  school 
committee  in  1995.  I've  had 
the  best  state  representative 
anyone  could  have  in  Bruce 
Ayers.  I've  enjoyed  reading 
The  Quincy  Sun  and  writing 
all  those  letters  to  the  editor 
over  the  years  to  Henry 
Bosworth. 

I've  grown  much  and 
learned  much  in  these  past 
two  plus  decades.  I'll  miss 
much  and  I'll  keep  hold  of 
all  the  memories. 

I'm  sure  some  pols  ill 


miss  me  and  some  pols  will 
be  glad  to  see  me  go.  Ma>  or 
Bill  Phelan  and  I  haven't  al- 
ways got  along  but  I  still 
think  of  him  as  a  friend.  I'm 
sure  I've  been  a  pam  in  the 
side  to  many  in  Quincy  poli- 
tics but  I've  always  done  it 
with  a  dose  of  humor 

I'll  be  gone  before  the 
political  duel  between 
Tommy  Koch  and  Bill 
Phelan  happens.  Good  luck 
to  both  of  them. 

Hey,  lots  of  pols  do  like 
me,  like  Joe  Finn.  Frank 


McCauley.  Joe  LaRaia,  Mike 
Bellotti,  etc. 

Good  luck  to  Victor  Ng  in 
the  council  at-Large  race. 
He's  an  up  and  coming 
Quincy  pol. 

I  even  have  some  kind 
words  for  Jim  Sheets.  He 
was  pretty  good  most  of  the 
time.  I  always  liked  to  keep 
him  guessing. 

I  will  miss  Quincy  and 
await  my  future  in 
Dorchester.

He  Would  Invite  Bin  Laden  To  The  White  House 


Ever  since  1  began  to  be 
interested  in  politics,  1  have 
never  heard  a  more  power- 
ful political  message  than 
when  I  read  in  the  BcMon 
Glohc,  on  Sept.  14.  a  state- 
ment by  the  Russian  Presi- 
dent Vladimir  Putin,  made  ,it 
a  meeting  wilii  Western  jour- 
nalists and  academic^. 

Allhi>ugh  the  statcmciii 
v\  as  made  s.uvasticaliy,  m  its 
non-sarcastic  meanini;,  the 


statement  could  initiate  a 
salvatof)  chapter  for  the 
present  barbaric  and  hope- 
lessly chaotic  state  o'i  the 
world. 

Here  is  what  Putin  said: 
■"Why  don't  \(»u.. Americans, 
meet  Osama  bui  Laden'  \\h\ 
don't  \  oil  iin  ite  hini  ti>  Brus- 
sels or  {o  the  White  Ihnise 
and  engage  him  in  talks,  .md 
ask  him  wliai  he  uants  and 


give  it  to  him,  so  that  he 
would  leave  you  in  peace'"" 
.At  the  tirst  instance,  such 
as  gesture  could  be  labeled 
as  being  ■"totall)  insane  ""  At 
the  second  instance,  such  .i 
gesture  could  be  labeled  as 
■"Christ' ov\n. ".As  Jl-K  would 
lia\  c  s.ii  J  "Oin  \\  I'lk  on 
I'arth  should  be  C  hit  si's 
own."  who  cime  to  l-.,irih  to 
leconcile  us  w  itli  one  .inotlier 


and  thus  reconciled  to  recon- 
cile us  with  Cjiid. 

This  radical  suggestion- 
although  in  appearance  con- 
trary to  all  common  sense-it 
realized  wmild  ser\e  to  end 
the  endless  human  h|i>od- 
shed  around  the  globe,  w  itli-

recovering  from  the  effects  of  the  most  terrible  storm  in  its 
history. 

More  than  ado/en  persons  were  injured,  several  seriously, 
and  damage  to  property  will  probably  run  into  the  hundreds 
of  thousands  of  dollars  in  Quincy  alone.  The  City  of  Quincy. 
through  a  miracle  of  luck,  suffered  no  fatalities.  Fifteen  trees 
on  Acton  St.  in  Wollaston  alone  were  uprooted,  as  were  trees 
throughout  the  city.

Directer  Cvnthia  McGrath

Council  were  invited  to 
speak. 

Davis  said  all  union  offi- 
cials were  notified. 

Cnder  the  current  dead- 
line, the  Cit\  Council,  the 
ma\  or.  union  leaders  and  re- 
tirees had  to  decide  by  Oct.  I 
whether  all  of  the  city's  2.375 
emploN  ees  and  1 ,765  retir- 
ees and  their  families  should 
join  the  state  health  insur- 
ance program  for  a  minimum 
of  three  y  ears. 

In  addition  to  the  employ- 


ees, retirees  and  their  fami- 
lies, another  700  active  retir- 
ees, individuals  and  families 
with  benefits,  currently  un- 
der commercial  health  plans,

The  employee  decision  to

.Sexeral  cit\  councillors 
said  this  week  and.  at  then 
last  meeting,  that  the  Oct.  I 
deadline  oftered  little  chance 
to  examine  the  state" s  em- 
plo\  ee  health  plan.  Now  there 
will  be  time  to  study  the  state 
plan  in  time  for  next  year's 
deadline. 

The  City  Council  has  to 
appro\e  membership  in  the 
G.I.C.  but  their  vote  is  not 
binding  on  the  city  employ- 
ees. 

Coughlin  said  Monday 
that  the  Council  was  "...not 
prepared  to  entertain  mov- 
ing to  the  G.I.C.  in  such  a 
compressed  time  frame,  just 
from  a  rational  point  of 
view." 

"It's  important  for  (City 
Council)  to  do  our  due  dili- 
gence." Coughlin  said. 

Ward  2  City  Councillor 
Daniel  Ra\mondi  said  there's 


ARE  ALCOHOL  OR  DRUGS  CAUSING 
PROBLEMS  IN  YOUR  FAMILY? 

The  FAMILY  PROJECT  may  help 

The  Family  Project  is  a  study  being  done  by 

Har\  ard  Medical  School  researchers  at  Bay  State

a  lot  to  learn  and  now  council 
members  can  study  the  state 
health  plan  and  consider  all 
alternatives  for  a  later  vote. 
"We  need  to  educate  our- 
selves about  the  whole  pro- 
cess." 

At  the  last  meeting.  Ward 
6  City  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  said  that  he's  al- 
ways wary  when  told  that  he 
can  pay  less  and  get  more  of 
anything. 

'This  is  a  very  ambitious 
task  to  make  this  work." 
McNamee  said. 

McNamee  fears  that 
(lie.  rates  and  ctneiage 
decisions  will  be  mo\ed  to 
Beaci>n  Hill  and  the  city 
would  "'lose  a  lot  ot  control."" 
fie  cited  data  that  suggested

as  high  as  $W  in  some  cir- 
cumstances. 

"Ihe  t i.l.C  .  IS  good  for 
me. ""  saidC(.)Ughlin.  who  w  ith 
his  lamil\  is  insured  by  the 
state  program.  CiHighlin  said 
the  plan  has  been  \ery  suc- 
cessful for  them.  He  could 
ha\e  chosen  a  city  plan  but 


preferred  the  stability  of  the 
state  insurance  program. 

"1  think  it's  a  complex 
issue,"  said  Coughlin.  "It's 
not  something  you  can  rush 
into.  Once  you're  in,  you 
can't  get  out." 

However,  Coughlin  said 
that  he  dt>es  pay  more  in  co- 
pays  than  a  city  plan  may 
require  and  that  his  premi- 
ums have  fluctuated. 

"I've  paid  as  much  as 
209^,"  said  Coughlin  who 
said  the  employee  prennums 
percentage  is  set  by  the  legis- 
lature and  approved  by  the 
goxernor. 

Coughlin.  also,  pointed 
out  that  employees  do  have  a 
lot  (^f  choices  and  his  plan  is 
on\\  one  oi  the  eight  plans 
a\ailable  to  those  ct)vered 
underthe  G.I.C.  The  arra\  oi' 
plans  titters  members  a  wide 
range  of  choice  in  payments 
and  co\  erage. 

The  City  Council  had 
planned  a  public  hearing  on 
the  health  insurance  issue 
next  Monday.  The  question 
may  be  moot  by  then. 


300  Street  Trees 
To  Be  Planted  In  Fall 


The  city  plans  to  plant 
300  new  street  trees  this  fall. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  Forestry  Director  Mark 
Jaehnig  noted  that  MON 
Landscaping  was  the  low 
bidder  for  the  project  being 
carried  out  with  the  mayor's 
"Neighborhoods  First"  pro- 
gram. 

'"Our  neighborhoods  feel 
like  small-towns  in  part  be- 
cause of  the  beautiful  trees 
that  line  our  streets,"  said 
Phelan.  "It  is  imperative  that 
we  maintain  our  quaint 
neighborhoods  by  replacing 
and  adding  trees  every  year. 
This  issue  has  been  men- 
tioned frequently  throughout 
our  "Neighborhoods  First" 
program  and  I  ain  proud  to 


fulfil  the  requests  of  our  resi- 
dents." 

The  city  will  plant  the  fol- 
lowing tree  species  this  fall: 
Skyline  Honey  Locust,  Allee 
Elm,  Autumn  Blaze  Maple. 
Amur  Maple.  White  Oak, 
and  Chanticleer  Gallery  Pear. 

All  of  the  species  chosen 
are  generally  tolerant  of  city 
conditions.  Each  tree  has 
been  fitted  to  its  planting  lo- 
cation to  minimize  impact  on 
infrastructure  and  wires. 

Phelan  included  street- 
lined  plantings  in  the  munici- 
pal budget  for  the  first  time 
in  decades.  A  tree-planting 
appropriation  has  been  in- 
cluded in  the  past  two  bud- 
gets submitted  by  Phelan.

Koch  Calls  For  Improving 
Communication  With  Residents 


Sk***^*,';'^'**'*****^  ^~*  s*    >.  <    ifti'- .«      *      .  *''  '  ','  ,'  *  ^?'^*'?^'^*^f"W?'S 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  has  proposed  a  series 
o\  steps  to  improve 
communication  between  City 
Hall  and  residents,  saying 
nuijor  projects  and  other 
matters  should  never  happen 
with  the  public  kept  in  the 
dark. 

Part         tW  Kochs 

■  Leadership  Now"  plan,  the 
prv)posal  includes  an 
overhaul  of  the  city  s  website 
to  provide  up-to-date  and 
uselul  information;  a  new 
emphasis  to  use  Quincy 
Access  Television  as  a 
communication  tool;  phone 
system  improvements  to 
make  informing  residents 
easier;  and  a  new  program  to 
keep  ward  councillors  up-to- 
date  on  projects  so  written 
notice  can  be  provided  to 
residents. 

"Keeping  residents 
informed  is  the  most  basic 
leadership  function  of  City 
Hall,  and  we  must  do  better," 
Koch  said.  "We're  seeing  so 
many  things  happen  around 
our  city  without  the  public's 
knowledge,  and  it  speaks  to  a 
larger  failure  to  lead  that  we 
plan  to  change.  It's  the  same 
leadership  with  the  high 
school  project,  taxes,  pubhc 
safety,  and  development." 

Koch  highhghted  a  series 
of  examples  the  last  few 
months  as  evidence  of  the 
need  to  repair  a  disconnect 
between  the  public  and  City 
Hall.  Koch  cited  road  projects 
in  Wollaston,  a  gas  main 
project  on  Hancock  Street  in 
North  Quincy,  and  most 
recently  a  major  MWRA 
projeci  in  West  Quinc\  tlutt 
stalled,  he  said,  with  virtually 
no  inl'ornuilii'n  pro\idod  io 
the  public 

"People  uokc  up  in  the 
morning  lo  tuid  streets  ueic 
clo*-t.'d-thi>  is  unacceptable." 
Koch  saiii.  "The 

adnnnistration  suggested  that

said,  pointing  to  a  series  of 
house  break-ins  over  the 
summer  in  the  Wollaston 
area.  The  public  was  t)nl\ 
informed  about  the  rash  of 
break-ins  by  a  cluun  email 
that  spread  ar(<und  the 
neighborhood,  he  said.  Koch 
iilso  highlighted  the 
professional  \  1)1  le>  ball  e\ent 
at  Marina  Bay  this  summer, 
noting  that  the  mayor  held  a 
meeting  in  the  neighborhooil 
without  informing  them  of 
the  event. 

Koch  said  his 

administration  would 
immediately  overhaul  the 
city's  website  to  become  an 
informational  resource  for 
residents,  providing 

announcements  on  major 
projects  and  other  issues  in 
the  city.  The  city  would  use 
the  resources  of  QATV  for 
the  same  purpose,  and  will 
explore  a  number  of  options 


to  comtnunicate  with 
residents  by  phiMie  and  by 
email 

"The  city'>  website  will 
become  the  website  for  the 
entire  city,  not  a  publicity 
page  fbrtheadnnnistration," 
Koch  said. "  Ihcie  is  so  much 
more  we  can  do  to  keep  oui 
residents  informed,  and  just 
al)out  all  ot  it  is  tree  and  easy 
lo  implement.  Its  a  simple 
tuiiclion  ol  leadership,  and 
that'sexactly  what  we  intend 
to  provide." 

Koch  announced  the  first 
part  of  his  "leadership  Now" 
program  last  week,  calling 
for  changes  to  the  city's 
zoning  code  to  stop 
neighborhood 
overdevelopment  and  major 
improvements  to  traffic 
systems  around  the  city.  The 
plan  can  be  obtained  by 
calling  617-773-5624.

employees,  notably  the 
Quincy  Credit  I  nion 
(QCC),  which  will  field  a 
team  for  the  second  year. 

■"We  know  that  raising

Betty  Burke.  QCU  Chief 
Operating  Officer  and  a 
member  of  the  QMC  Cancer

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Tuesdav.  Sept  4,at  appro.\imalel>  4  p.m..  ihcQuincv 
Police  Department  recened  a  telephone  call  that  there  u.is 
a  break  in  pro^'iess  on  Albion  Road.  The  dispatcher  kepi 
the  caller  c<n  the  line  as  he  dispatched  cruisers  to  the  area. 
At  the  time,  the  area  cars  were  lied  up  in  a  horrific  domes- 
tic violence  call  involving 
injuries  and  arrests. 

I  (Lt.  Minton)  was  on  m\' 
way  home,  so  1  informed  the 
dispatcher  that  1  would  be  on 
the  scene  shortly.  Detective 
James  Lencki,  Just  coming 
on  shift,  said  he  was  on  his 
way.  The  witness  provided 
constant  updates  to  the  dis- 
patcher and  as  1  turned  onto 
Albion  Road,  I  was  able  to 
see  two  males  walking  away 
from  the  address  given. 


LT.  DAN  MINTON 


DET.  JAMES  LENCKI 


As  I  drove  up  behind  them, 
1  saw  a  person  on  a  cell  phone 
watching  the  suspects.  1 
pulled  over  and  spoke  to  the 
person  on  the  cell  phone  con- 
firmed that  the  two  males 
walking  away  were  the  sus- 
pects. He  said  they  were  two 
of  the  three  who  were  trying 
doors  and  uindous  attempt- 
ing to  get  inside. 

1      radioed     Detective 
Lencki,  who  came  up  Albion 
Road  in  the  opposite  direc- 
tion, from  Hancock  Street,  that  they  were  two  of  the  sus- 
pects. We  pulled  our  vehicles  on  each  side  of  them,  in  the 
event  that  they  tried  to  run. 

Detective  Lencki  asked  the  suspects  what  they  were  do- 
ing at  the  house  and  they  said  they  were  looking  for  a  friend. 
The  suspects  provided  a  name  that  did  not  match  with  the 
residents  of  the  home  where  the  attempted  break  occurred. 
As  Detective  Lencki  held  the  suspects,  I  returned  to  the 
witness,  who  said  two  of  the  suspects  first  tried  to  open  the 
front  and  back  door  while  the  third  acted  as  the  lookout. 
After  an  initial  try  at  gaining  entry,  the  suspects  briefly 
walked  away  from  the  house  and  down  the  street,  then  re- 
turned to  the  back  yard. 

The  witness  said  the  suspects  then  tried  the  screen  win- 
dow in  the  rear  of  the  house,  pushing  both  the  screen  and 
the  window  up.  When  sirens  were  heard  in  the  distance, 
(ambulance  heading  toward  the  domestic  disturbance)  the 
suspects  walked  auav  fiom  ihe  hcmsc  and  down  the  street, 
brieflv  out  of  sight  of  the  witness. 

The  witness  walked  out  into  the  slieei  and  coverth  ob- 
.ser\ed  two  of  the  three  suspects  walking  on  Albion  Road 
knvaid  Hancock  Streei.  Based  on  this  information,  I  re- 
turned to  Detective  Lencki's  position,  now  joined  by  Of- 
ficer Curtis  and  inforined  him  of  the  witness's  account. 
Detective  Lencki  told  the  suspects  they  were  under  arrest. 
1  searched  suspect  #1  and  found  a  pair  of  needle-no.se 
pliers  and  pills  in  an  unmarked  prescription  bottle.  This 
suspect  (1)  said  the  pills  were  his,  but  could  not  identify 
the  name  of  the  pill.  When  asked  what  he  used  the  pills  for, 
he  said,  "For  neck  pain. "  1  asked  him  what  the  problem 
was  with  his  neck  and  he  then  said,  "It's  for  sore  throats." 
When  asked  why  he  was  carrying  pliers,  the  suspect  did 
not  respond. 

Suspect  #2  had  a  pair  of  rubber  medical  gloves  in  his 
pocket.  Drug  Unit  Detective  Brian  Coon  arrived  on  scene 
after  searching  for  the  third  suspect  and  identified  the  drug 
as  commonly  used  with  heroin.  Both  suspects  were  trans- 
ported to  the  station  for  booking.  During  the  booking  pro- 
cess, the  suspects  gave  false  names  lo  the  desk  sergeant, 
but  the  true  identity  was  discovered  through  the  submis- 
sion of  their  fingerprints  to  the  F.B.I. 

Suspect  #1 ,  a  29-year-old  Quincv  resident,  was  charged 
with  possession  of  burglarious  tools,  breaking  and  enter- 
ing, possession  of  Class  B  drugs,  false  information  to  a 
police  officer,  along  with  multiple  warrants. 

Suspect  #2.  a  Dorchester  resident,  was  charged  with  pos- 
session of  burghinous  tools,  breaking  and  entering  and  false 
information  to  a  police  officer. 
Nice  wc)rk! 

In  this  case,  most  of  the  credit  goes  to  the  witness,  who 
immediately  recognized  something  was  wrong  and  ob- 
served the  suspects  while  notifying  the  police.  The  wit- 
ness made  observations  from  a  safe  viewing  area  and  pro- 
vided updates  to  the  responding  units  via  the  dispatcher. 
Ihe  suspects  were  taken  into  custody  without  incident,  and 
as  for  the  third  suspect,  another  witness  provided  a  license 
plate  of  a  vehicle  that  sped  away. 

Detectives  are  following  up  on  the  lead.  If  you  are  a 
witness  to  a  possible  crime,  give  us  a  call  and  let  the  offic- 
ers cheek  it  out.  Too  many  times,  people  say  they  weren't 
sure  or  didn't  want  to  bother  the  police.  It  was  through  the 
efTons  of  this  witness  that  we  were  able  to  catch  the  sus- 
pects!

Quincy  improved  its  early 
season  record  to  I-l  overall, 
and  1-0  in  the  highly 
competitive  Atlantic  Coast 
League.  The  victory  was  the 
team's  first  since  October  20, 
2006,  when  the  Red  Raiders 
knocked  off  ACL  foe  Nauset 
High  School  by  a  score  of 
32-0. 

"If  we  want  to  be  a  good 
team  we  need  to  expect  to 
win,"  Connor  said  after  his 
team's  loss  to  Somerville 
High  School  two  Fridays  ago. 
"We  are  moving  on  and  need 
to  get  ready  to  play 
Sandwich." 

Get  ready  they  did.  But  it 
took  them  until  there  was 
about  eight  minutes 
remaining  in  the  final  quarter 
to  finally  get  it  jump  started. 

The  Raiders  came  out  of 
the  locker  room  to  begin  the 
night's  festivities  to  a  loud 
and  supportive  horne  crowd, 
but  the  opening  half  did  little 


RUNNING  BACK  JON  CAHILL  breaks  a  tackle  during 
North's  season  opener  versus  Somerville.  Cahill  ignited  his 
team's  comeback  against  Sandwich  and  the  home  crowd  at 
Veterans  Memorial  Stadium  with  a  three-yard  TI)  in  the  fourth 
quarter  to  draw  the  Red  Raiders  to  within  12-7. 


to  quell  the  notion  that  North 
Quincy  may  be  a  ways  away 
from  being  competitive  in  the 
lough  Atlantic  Coast  League. 

The  offense  struggled 
throughout  the  first  half  as 
quarterback  Dennis  Martin 
and  running  backs  Jon  Cahill, 
Danny  Jackson  and  Joe 
Vialpando  found  it  tough  to 
gain  any  significant  yards 
against  the  stingy  Sandwich 
front  line. 

With  the  offense  attack 
being  kept  in  check  early,  the 


Red  Raider  defense  played 
like  a  unit  on  a  mission. 
Senior  linebacker  Sekou 
Benjamin  and  senior  defense 
lineman  Jesse  Skomial.  along 
with  seniors  Marcellus  Lee 
(defense  end)  and  Christian 
Arredondo  ( linebacker)  kept 
the  Sandwich  running  attack 
grounded  while  the  defensive 
backfield  of  Dave  Thomson, 
Alex  Tragellis,  Danny 
Jackson  and  Jon  Cahill  kept 
the  passing  game  in  check.

The  Fours  Finish  Season 
Undefeated,  Champions 


Quincy's  U12  travel 
Softball  team,  sponsored  by 
The  bOurs,  ended  their 
sununer  with  an  undefeated 
regular  season  and  a 
championship  title  in  the 
Norfolk  County  (lirls 
Softball  League. 

The  Lours  entered  the 
playoffs  as  the  number  one 
seed  and  quickly  dispatched 
of  the  team  from  West  wood 
behind  solid  pitching  from 
Erin  Chiocchio.  The 
finishing  blow  in  the  opening 
round  playoff  game  came  in 
the  fourth  inning  with 
Natasha  Sautter  kicking  off 
four  consecutive  runs  with  a 
leadoff  homcrun. 

In  the  semifinals,  the 
match  up  was  Qwnicy  vs. 
Quincy  for  the  second 
straight  seasi>p.  Ilic  lours 
anti  C'oughlin  Club  battled  it 
out  loi  so\cn  mnmgs,  but  in 
the  end.  il  was  Tlic  l\>urs

game  at  Mitchell'McCoy 
Field  in  Quinc\ .  I  h.-  lours 
faced  off  aeainst  a  siwMieaiul 


The  team  struggled  early, 
allowing  Newton's  first 
batter  to  reach  base  and  score 
on  a  fielding  error. 

Trailing  4-0  in  the  home 
half  of  the  fourth  inning, 
Quincy  turned  to  one  of  its 
best  offensive  weapons  to 
help  change  the  tone  of  the 
game.  Caitlin  Bulger,  who 
had  started  the  season  with 
her  wrist  in  a  cast,  laid  down 
a  perfect  bunt  and  advanced 
to  second  on  an  errant  throw 
to  first  base.  Erin  Richardson 
followed  with  another 
successful  bunt,  putting 
runners  on  the  comers  with 
no  inits. 

Li/  Kelly's  two-run  hit  to 
centerfield  brought  Lhe 
f  ours  back  to  within  \wo  runs 
and  consecutive  hits  by  Pan  y. 
L.mma  Ainsley.  and  Sclbcil 
tied  the  sc(>re  at  4-4. 

In  the  top  oi  the  sixth 
iiinmg  Nc\vl(>n  had  runners 
on  second  and  thiiil  with  no 
ouis.  riu'  battery  oi  PaiT\' 
and  RichardsiMi  stood  tall  and 
stiuck  oi]{  lhe  next  two 
batters,  lacing  Neutmi's 
cleanup  hitter.  I'arry  threw  a 
pilch  in  the  dirt  that 
Richaidson  cmild  not  siop, 
but  with  PaiiA  cv>venng  the 
plate,  Richardson  pounced  on 
lhe  ball  and  flipped  it  io  Parry 


runner  from  third  for  the  final 
out  of  the  inning. 

In  the  home  half  of  the 
sixth,  Richardson  bunted  her 
way  on  base,  stole  second 
and  third  and  scored  the  go 
ahead  run  on  a  wild  pitch. 
Liz  Kelly  would  later  come 
around  to  score  the  second 
run  of  the  inning  to  make  the 
score  6-4. 

The  Fours  closed  out  the 
championship  in  the  seventh 
behind  a  Jacki  Hughes  heads 
up  play  in  right  field.  With 
their  leadoff  hitter  aboard, 
Newton's  next  batter 
smashed  a  line  drive  to  right 
field  that  Hughes  chased 
down  on  the  fly.  Seeing  the 
runner  too  far  off  first  base, 
Hughes  fired  the  ball  to 
Chiocchio  covering  first  to 
complete  the  doiibic  play.  A 
iiHitinc  groundball  to  Selbert 
at  third  base  ended  the  game 
and  finished  o{'\  their 
undefeated  season. 

lhe  team  and  coaches 
would  like  to  ihank  all  those 
who  helped  make  the  2007 
season  so  successful, 
including  Travel  Coordinator 
Mary  .Ainsley;  the  special 
assistance  from  Kyle

When  the  1.*;"' annual  U.S. 
Marshal  William  F.  Degan 
Memorial  Road  Race  gets 
underway  on  Sunday,  Sept. 
23,  it  will  mark  the  beginnintr 
of  the  end  for  this  1 5 -year 
charity  event  in  the  City  of 
Quincy. 

flic  Degan  MenKuial

annually  since  199^  as  a 
comniunity  event  to  preserve 
ilu:  memory  of  L'.S.  Marshal 
Hill  Dcgaa,  who  lost  his  life 
HI  199?  in  tlie  line  (>f  duty 

The  road  race  draws  close 
to  1,300  runners  each  year, 
including  L'.S.  marshals  from 
around  the  country,  and  not 
including  this  year,  has  raised 
more  than  $250,000  in 
support  of  scholarship  funds 
and  local  organizations, 
including  Quincy  Cares, 
Mayflower  Pediatrics, 
Quincy  After  School,  and  the 
police  D.A.R.E.  program. 

The  proceeds  from  this 
year's  race  will  go  to  help 
fund  scholarships  for  a 
graduating  senior  from 
Quincy  High  School  and 
North  Quincy  High  School, 
and  this  year's  race  is  shaping 
up  to  be  the  biggest  one  in  the 
15-year  history  of  the  event. 

"The  numbers  for  this 
year's  road  race  cue  currently 


more  than  any  other  prior 
year,"  said  Rick  Fitzpatrick, 
Degan' s  brother-in-law  and 
race  coordinator.  "At  the 
same  time  as  the  Quincy  road 
race,  there  will  be  a 
simultaneously  road  race  by 
about  twenty  to  thirty 
members  of  the  Marine  Coi  ps 
in  Baghdad."' 

Next  year,  lhe  road  race 
will  ho  replaced  by  a  similar 
e\ent  in  memory  of  Quincy 
police  officer  James  "Jamie" 
Cochrane,  who  died  in  a 
motorcycle  accident  last 
September. 

"The  family  has  decided 
to  move  forward  although 
they  are  appreciative  of 
everything  that  has  been  done 
in  Bill's  honor  the  last  fifteen 
years,"  Fitzpatrick  added. 
"As  a  committee  we  had  that 
in  mind  that  at  any  point  if 
they  decided  to  move 
forward,  we  would  respect 
that." 

Dick  and  Rick  Hoyt, 
known  in  the  local  running 
circles  as  Team  Hoyt  and  as 
annual  participants  in  the 
Boston  Marathon,  will  be 
competing  in  this  year' s  race. 
For  more  than  25  years,  Dick 
Hoyt  has  pushed  his

Red  Raiders  Win  Thriller  Over  Sandwich 


(Ci'in't!  I  rrii.  l\r^i  !  'i 
Al   hall   liinc.  S.iiuiwich 
held  a  slim  (>■()  le.id. 

The  seviMiil  half  dul  not 
start  oil  lhe  way  lhe  Reil 
Raiders  wmild  ha\c  hoped 
as  the  kickoff  was  fumbled 
away  and  recovered  by 
Sandwich.  That  Uirnover 
turned  costly  almost 
immediately  as  Sandwich 
took  the  ball  from  the  North 
Quincy  3 1 -yard  line  and 
drove  it  all  the  way  down 
inside  the  lO-yju^d  line.  Two 
plays  later.  Sandwich 
punched  it  in  for  their  second 
offense  touchdown  of  the 
game. 

But  It  was  here  when  the 
tide  started  to  turn  in  North 
Quincy  favor.  Sandwich 
lined  up  for  the  point  after 
attempt,  and  missed  badly.  It 
was  the  second  time  in  as 
many  tries  that  they  coughed 


up  ihc  P.\r.  So  instead  ol  .i 
14()  third  quarter  ad\anlagc. 
It  was  a  12-0  lead 

lhe  Raiders'  offense 
continued  to  sputter  on  ils 
next  iwo  offensive 
possessions.  Martin  could 
find  little  space  tocomplete  a 
pass  and  hi>  trio  oi  running 
backs  (Cahill.  Jackson  and 
Vialpando)  continued  to  be 
knocked  back  for  little  to  no 
gain  on  most  of  their  running 
attempts.  A  promising 
scoring  drive  at  the  beginning 
of  the  fourth  quarter  came  up 
empty,  and  North  Quincy  was 
forced  to  give  the  ball  back  to 
Sandwich. 

With  the  game  clock 
running  down  in  the  fourth 
quarter.  Sandwich  took  the 
ball  deep  in  their  own  end 
looking  to  mn  the  ball  and 
eat  up  what  valuable  time 
was  left,  but  the  Raider 


ilcicnse  was  lun  lui\ing  any 
of  that. 

Senior  captain  Dennis 
ThoinsiMrs  h(Mie-chaning 
t.ukle  on  a  pia\  in  the  left  Hal 
toiced  a  fumble  that  was 
reco\ered  by  Nonh  Quincx 
ai  the  Sandw  ich  24-yard  line. 
The  turnover  not  only  got  lhe 
Raider  sideline  and  coaching 
staff  pumped  up,  but  also  the 
home  crow  d.  The  silence  that 
had  engulfed  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  after  tlie 
second  Sandwich  touchdow  n 
made  it  1 2-0.  quickly  became 
one  loud  and  supportive 
.  voice. 

Martin  huddled  up  his 
offense  and  on  the  first  play 
from  scrimmage,  handed  the 
ball  to  Cahill  who  gained 
three  yards.  The  offense 
followed  that  with  another 
shgrt  run  up  the  middle. 
F^JQg  9  (hinl.c^o.wq,  Njaitin 


went  back  U^  the  ground 
game,  this  time  iianding  the 
hall  lo  Danny  Jackson. 
J.ickson  knifed  his  wa_\ 
through  the  line  and  into  the 
open  space  in  the  Sandw  ich 
backfield  before  being 
tackled  at  the  3-yaid  line. 

On  firsi-and-goal  from  the 
three-yard  line,  Jon  Cahill 
followed  his  blocks  and 
walked  virtually  untouched 
into  the  end  /one.  Zac 
Deegan's  successful  PAT 
drew  North  to  within  12-7 
with  just  under  five  minutes 
to  play  in  regulation. 

Sandwich  could  not 
respond  on  its  next  offensive 
possession  as  the  Red  Raider 
defense  seemed  to  build  off 
the  momentum  from  the 
Thomson  forced  fumble  and 
the  Cahill  score.  After  a  pimt 
by  Sandwich  gave  the  ball

Jackson  broke  free  of  two 
tacklers,  cut  back  to  the 
middle  of  the  field,  and  then 
back  towards  the  sidelines 
and  left  two  Sandwich 
defenders  in  his  wake.  His 
60-yard  TD  run  put  the 
Raiders  up  1 3- 1 2.  xNorth  went 
for  the  tw  o-point  conversion 
and  missed  (a  successful 
attempt  would  have  given 
them  a  three-point  lead).

North  Girls  Record  1-1-1 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  2007  North  Quincy 
varsity  girls  soccer  roster  is 
deep,  and  after  last  week's 
games  against  Fontbonne 
Academy  and  Falmouth  High 
School,  that  depth  is  going  to 
be  tested  immediately. 

North  took  to  the  field  last 
Thursday  to  play  its  Atlantic 
Coast  League  opener  against 
the  Clippers  of  Falmouth 
High  School.  The  Raiders 
and  the  Clippers  played  to  a 
1-1  draw,  but  in  the  process. 
North  lost  starting  goalkeeper 
Siobhan  Camell  to  a  knee 
injury  (she  is  day-to-day)  and 
sophomore  striker  Cara 
Murtagh  to  a  busted  nose. 

"1  told  the  girls  after  the 
game  that  they  all  showed 
heart  and  great  character 
against  a  very  good  league 
team,"  said  head  coach  Paul 
Bregoli.  "After  losing  our 
starting  keeper  and  our 
starting  striker,  the  team 
didn't  fold,  but  instead  played 
with  passion  and  heart.  It  is 
early,  but  this  game  could  be 
a  turning  point  in  our  season." 
North  got  on  the  board 
first  on  a  goal  from  senior 
captain  Emily  Milone  just 
11:15  into  the  contest.  After 
a  breakdown  on  defense  late 
in  the  first  half  allowed 
Falmouth  to  tie  the  score  at 
1  - 1 ,  the  Red  Raiders  and  that 
deep  roster  buckled  down  in 
the  second  half. 

Junior  Jesse  Howlett 
replaced  Camell,  who  was 
injured  on  a  routine  play  just 
ten  minutes  into  the  .second 
half.  Howlett,  a  standout 
basketball  player  for  North 
Quincy,  made  eight  saves, 
including  a  beautiful  stop  on 
a  late  Clipper  .scoring  chance. 
'■Jesse  played  great  in  the 
second  half,"  said  Bregoli. 
"She  made  the  saves,  cut  off 
a  handful  of  balls  and  late  in 
the  game  reached  out  like 
she  was  grabbing  a  rebound 
and  saved  us  from  defeat. 

"When  Carnell  and 
Murtagh  went  down,  the  rest 
of  the  team  stood  up.  Lindsey 
Repucci,  Shannon  Coleman. 
Simone  Leary  and  Anne 
Marie  Price  all  stepped  up 
their  games  to  help  preserve 
that  tie.  We  have  the  depth, 
but  it  is  inexperienced  depth. 
I  told  the  underclassmen  that 
they  needed  to  play  better 
and  they  did  against 
Falmouth" 

Last  Wednesday,  the 
Raiders  traveled  into  Milton 
to  play  against  Fontbonne 
Academy  in  a  non-league 
game  and  came  away  with  a 
convincing  4-2  victory. 

Senior  captain  Mary  Kate 
Stille  took  a  throw-in  in  the 
seventh  minute  of  play  from 
Murtagh  and  buried  the  pass 
into  the  back  of  the  net  for 
her  first  goal  of  the  young 
season.  Junior  Lindsay  Reilly 
followed  Stille 's  goal  with 
her  first  career  varsity  goal  to 
up  the  score  to  2-0. 

With  just  under  five 
minutes  remaining  in  the  first 
half,  Milone  scored  off  of  a 


GIRLS  SOCCER 


Red  Raiders  Anticipate 
A  Successful  Season 


feed  from  sophomore 
midfielder  Kristin  Peterson, 
and  solid  defense  on  the  back 
line  by  Simone  Leary  and 
Shannon  Coleman  in  the 
waning  minutes  of  the  half, 
helped  preserve  the  3-0  lead. 

Milone  continued  her  hot 
sctmng  start  with  her  second 
goal  of  the  game  (and  third  of 
the  season)  early  in  the 
second  half.  Senior 
midfielder  Kasey  O'Connell 
assisted  on  the  goal. 
Fontbonne  would  later  go  on 
to  score  two  late  goals,  but 
the  damage  was  done  and 
North  Quincy  was  on  its  way 
to  its  first  win  of  2007. 

"This  was  a  good  win 
against  a  strong  non-league 
opponent,"  said  Bregoli. 
"Fontbonne* s  home  field  is 
on  the  smaller-side,  and  add 
that  component  to  the  fact 
that  we  were  playing  on  the 
road,  and  it  was  a  solid 
victory." 

Bregoli,  entering  his 
thirteenth  season  as  head 
coach,  is  cautiously 
optimistic  about  what  lies 
ahead  for  his  team  this  fall. 
The  team  has  strong  senior 
leadership  and  the  potential 
to  become  an  explosive 
scoring  machine,  but  as  was 
mentioned  above,  has 
inexperienced  depth. 


"We  will  be  young  in 
experience,  so  we  will  be 
relying  heavily  on  our 
returning  varsity  players. 
Emily  Milone  is  a  three-time 
EMASS  all-star  and  has 
recently  been  selected  to  the 
U19  Regional  Team,"  he 
said.  "Stille  (15  goals,  10 
assists  in  2006),  Kerry 
Coughlin,  Simone  Leary  and 
Paige  Bonnani  are  other 
seniors  whose  leadership  will 
be  beneficial. 

"Other  returning  starters 
include  senior  Tara 
McFarland,  and  juniors  Amy 
Carchedi,  Brittany  Folkins 
Kerry  Donaghey  and 
Murtagh." 

The  team's  ultimate  goal 
is  to  qualify  for  the  Division 
1  post  season  for  the  eleventh 
straight  season  under  the 
direction  of  Bregoli. 

"We  have  undoubtedly 
the  best  player  to  have  played 
for  North  in  Milone.  Our 
success,  however,  will 
depend  upon  the 
development  of  our 
inexperienced  players," 
Bregoli  stated.  "We  will  be  a 
work  in  progress  but  our  end 
result  should  be  fine." 

North's  next  scheduled 
home  game  at  Teal  Field  is 
Sept.  25  at  4  p.m.  against 
Plymouth  North.

Quincy  residents 


The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raider  boys  soccer  team 
opened  the  2(K)7  fall  season 
with  a  2-2  tie  against  Milton 
High  School,  followed  by  a 
tough  6-1  loss  to  Atlantic 
Coast  League  foe  Falmouth 
High  School.  But  head  coach 
Rich  Hanlon  is  excited  about 
his  team' s  prospects  this  year. 

"This  is  by  far  the  deepest 
team  we  have  had  since  I've 
been  associated  with  the 
program."  said  Hanlon. 
"Coming  off  a  somewhat 
disappointing  season  last 
year  with  three  wins  and  an 
equal  number  of  ties,  the  team 
knows  this  is  the  year  they 
can  reach  the  MIAA 
tournament,  something  we 
have  not  accomplished  since 
\999.  We  have  16  seniors 
who  all  play,  and  we  won't 
run  out  of  gas  late  in  games 
as  we  have  in  the  past  and  we 
have  tremendt)us 

leadership." 

Seniorquad-captains  Dan 
Richards,  Sean  Clifford,  John 
Cicciariello  and  Ryan 
Keaney  all  return  to  the  pitch 
this  year.  Joining  them  in  the 
starting  lineup  for  the  season 
opener  against  Milton  were 
seniors  Alex  Brean,  Tim 
Schow,  Marc  DeLucia  on 
defense;  seniors  Eoin  Kenny 
and  Zach  O'Hara  in  the 
midfield;  junior  forward 
Shane  Regan  and  sophomore 


BOYS  SOCCER 


goalkeeper  Ryan  Louis. 
Seniors  Besmir  Sulejmiuii, 
Matt  John.son,  Chris  Doyle, 
Pavli  Permeti,  Luis  Escobar, 
Hlbara  Ziade  and  Kwasi  Osei, 
as  well  as  juniors  Mike  Prioli, 
Paul  DeLucia,  Florian 
Mustafhi  and  Danny  Russell 
round  out  the  varsity  squad. 

The  second  game  ot  the 
season  started  with  a  long 
bus  ride  down  to  Falmouth. 
Several  Red  Raiders  were 
nursing  leg  injuries,  forcing 
Hanlon  to  pull  freshman  Nick 
Carbone  up  from  the  jay vec 
squad.  The  Clippers  scored 
in  the  third  minute  when  an 
attempted  Red  Raider  clear 
in  their  own  end  bounced  off 
a  Falmouth  player  and  past 
the  North  keeper. 

North  could  never  find 
their  rhythm  on  either  offense 
or  defense  and  as  a  result, 
Falmouth  carried  the 
majority  of  play  in  the  first 
half.  At  half  time,  the 
Clippers  held  a  4-0  lead. 

Shane  Regan  scored 
North's  lone  goal  of  the 
contest  late  in  the  second  half 
(his  third  goal  in  two  games) 
in  an  otherwise  dismal  elfort 
by  the  visiting  Red  Raiders. 

"Losing  6- 1  was  not  what 
we  had  in  mind  coming  down 
here,"  Hanlon  lamented.  "It's 


a  long  ride  and  we  had  four 
offensive  players  out  with 
injuries,  but  we  can't  u.se  that 
as  an  excuse.  I'm 
disappointed  in  how  we 
respt)nded  to  the  early  goal 
and  our  lack  of  effort  in 
general.  We're  better  than 
that." 

In  the  season  opener. 
North  Quincy  scored  first 
when  Cicciariello  sent  a  long 
pass  into  the  left  side  of  the 
Milton  penalty  area  to  Regan. 
Regan  carried  the  hall  from 
right  to  left,  drawing  out  the 
Wildcat  goalkeeper,  belore 
sliding  the  ball  back  to  the 
right  side  of  the  net  and  under 
the  outstretched  arm  of  the 
keeper.  Alter  Milton  tied  the 
score  at  I  - 1 .  Sulejmani  broke 
down  the  middle  of  the 
Milton  delcnse  with  Regan 
and  Cicciariello  wide  to 
either  side  of  the  field. 
Entering  the  penalty  box, 
Sulejmani  slowed  and  laid 
the  ball  off  to  Regan  angling 
in  from  the  left.  Regan'sdrive 
to  the  back  of  the  net  gave  the 
Raiders  a  2-1  hall  time  lead. 

Both  teams  played  a 
closely  held  possession  game 
throughout  the  second  half, 
with  numerous  Milton  runs 
up  the  left  side  of  the  field

Family  Fitness 

Q.This  summer  I 
•  focused  on  fun  activ- 
ities for  m>'  family  to  do 
together  to  help  us  lose 
weight  and  get  fit.  Now 
that  the  kids  are  back  in 
school,  how  can  I  keep  the 
exercise  and  activity 
schedule  my  family 
enjoyed  this  summer  with 
our  hectic  school  and  work 
schedules.  Not  only  did  we 
enjoy  the  quality  time,  my 
family  actually  stayed  fit 
during  summer  break. 
Any  suggestions? 

A  .You  have  the  right 
•  idea.  It  IS  a  fact  that 
(ainihes  who  exercise  and 
are  active  together  lower 
their  risk  of  obesity  and  oth- 
er medical  conditions  asso- 
ciated with  obesity.  Busy 
schedules  and  other  forms  of 
entertainment  have  placed 
exercise  on  the  back  burner. 
With  creative  thinking  you 
can  get  your  family  up.  mov- 
ing and  staying  fit  even  dur- 
ing the  busiest  times. 

Begin  by  making  time 
within  your  family's  sched- 
ule to  meet  together.  Set 
aside  time  that  will  be  unin- 
terrupted and  allow  for 
everyone  to  be  involved. 
This  may  be  challenging  at 
first,  but  do  your  best  to 
motivate  the  whole  family  to 
participate. 

Be  creative  with  the  typ)e  of 
activities  you  find  for  your 
fainily  to  do.  Get  everyone 
involved  in  the  planning  to 
include  the  interests  of  each 
family  member.  Be  sure  that 
everyone  can  participate  m 
the  chosen  activities.  If  you 
have  children  of  varying 
ages,    be     sure     that     the 


youngest  to  the  oldest  can  all 
enjoy  the  activities. 

Walking  or  bike  rides  after 
dinner,  swimming,  skating 
and  roller  blading,  and 
sports  such  as  tennis,  golf 
and  basketball  are  great 
ways  to  get  moving,  but 
don't  forget  to  consider  the 
fatigue  and  tiredness  of  your 
family  after  school  and 
work.  You  may  decide  to 
engage  in  these  activities  on 
the  Weekends. 

Other  ideas  include  sign- 
ing your  family  up  for  a 
charity  ^K  road  race.  The 
family  can  run  together 
while  helping  a  good  cause. 
Most  5K  races  even  offer 
kids  runs  for  younger  par- 
ticipants to  run  in  shorter 
distances  by  age.  This  can 
include  everyone  in  the 
family. 

Although  your  concerns 
are  with  your  family  staying 
active  during  the  school 
year,  you  are  ahead  of  the 
game  by  prepanng  to  con- 
tinue these  habits  year- 
round.  Make  it  a  part  of  your 
family's  lifestyle  to  stay 
active  with  each  other  when 
possible.  As  your  .schedules 
become  busier  with  other 
responsibilities,  continue  to 
find  time  to  play  with  each 
other,  even  if  it's  not  for  as 
long.  An  overall  healthy 
lifestyle  for  your  family  is  an 
activity  for  all  seasons. 

Always  consiiU  a  physician 
before  be\^uming  an  exercise 
profiram.  If  you  have  a  fit- 
ness or  training  question,

Five  Tips  For  The  Aging  Eye 


The  Massachusetts  Soci- 
ety of  liyc  F'hysicians  and 
Surgeons  in  partnership  with 
l-ye("arc  America,  a  national 
non-profit  organization  that 
provides  eye  exams  and  eye 
health  information  to  medi- 
cally underserved  communi- 
ties, is  providing  five  tips  for 
a  healthy  aging  eye  in  honor 
of  September's  Save  Your 
Sight  Month. 

"We  find  that  many 
people  don't  pay  attention  to 
their  health  until  something 
goes  wrong,"  said  M.  Lisa 
McHam.  MD.  president  of 
the  Massachu.setts  Society  of 
Hye  Physicians  and  Sur- 
geons. "By  providing  tips 
for  a  healthy  aging  eye  dur- 
ing Save  Your  Sight  Month, 
we  are  hoping  to  encourage 
seniors  to  be  more  proactive 
in  the  care  of  their  eyes  and 


vision. 

EyeCare  America's  5  Tips 

for  a  Healthy  Aging  Eye: 

1 .  Vitamin  A  is  great  for 
your  eyes  and  will  help  you 
maintain  healthy  vision. 
Foods  rich  in  vitamin  A  in- 
clude carrots,  yams  and  dark 
leafy  greens. 

2.  Find  out  your  family 
history  of  eye  disease.  In 
many  cases,  having  a  family 
member  with  an  eye  disease, 
such  as  glaucoma,  greatly  in- 
crea.ses  your  chance  of  get- 
ting the  disease. 

3.  Protect  your  eyes  from 
the  sun.  Overexposure  to  the 
sun's  rays  can  lead  to  cata- 
racts. Your  sunglasses  should 
have  UVAand  UVB  protec- 
tion. 

4.  If  you  are  over  65  years 
of  age,  have  your  eyes  exam- 
ined annually. 


5.  Call  EyeCare

Four  Out  Of  Five  Americans  Say: 


Current  Culture  Makes 
It  Hard  For  People  To  Exercise 


(NAPS)  -  Overworked? 
O  \  e  r  s  c  h  e  d  u  1  o  d  ? 
Overloaded?  Feel  like  you're 
taking  care  of  everything  and 
everyone  but  yourself'.'  You 
may  not  be  alone. 

According  to  a  survey 
recently  released  by  the 
International  Health,  Racquet 
&  Sportsclub  Association 
(IHRSA),  99  percent  of 
Americans  believe  that 
exercise  helps  preserve  good 
health.  Yet  most  feel  they 
have  a  battle  current  culture 
to  exercise  regularly.  A  full 
79  percent  say  the  current 


culture  in  America,  including 
the  pressures  of  work,  family 
and  financial  demands, 
makes  it  hard  for  people  to 
exercise  regularly  and 
maintain  healthy  lifestyles. 

"Virtually  all  Americans 
view  exercise  as  a  critical 
component  of  preventive 
health  care,"  says  Joe  Moore, 
President  and  CEO,  IHRSA. 
"But  most  are  losing  the 
struggle  to  balance  the 
demands  of  work  and  family 
with  personal  health-and  they 
need  greater  support."

Americans  say  it  would  make 
it  easier  for  people  to 
incorporate  exercise  into 
their  daily  routine  if 
employers  had  programs  to 
encourage  exercise.  And 
more  than  three-fifths  of 
Americans  believe  the 
government  should  do  more 
to  promote  physical  activity." 

The  Workforce  Health 
Improvement  Program 
(WHIP)  Act  (H.R.  1748  and 
S.1038)  could  make  a 
difference  too  many.  This 
legislation  promotes 
wellness  in  the  workforce  by 
making  fitness  center 
memberships  tax-free  for 
employees  when  provided  as 
an  employee  benefit.  Current 
law  requires  workers  to  pay 
income  tax  on  such  wellness 
benefits. 

Diabetes,  heart  disease 
and  other  chronic  diseases 
are  the  U.S.  and  account  for 
the  vast  majority  of  health 
care  spending.  Research  has

shown  that  exercise  is  a  key 
factor  in  preventing  chronic 
disease. 

"If  we're  to  make  any 
meaningful  progress  in 
improving  America's  health 
and  controlling  the  cost  of 
health  care,  we  need  to  create 
a  national  environment  that 
supports  health,"  says  Moore. 
"That  starts  with  federal 
initiatives-like  WHIP-that 
remove  that  barriers  to 
exercise  and  other  forms  of 
preventive  health  care." 

Three-quarters  of 

Americans  say  they'd 
encourage  their  member  of 
Congress  to  vote  to  pass 
WHIP.  Are  you  one  of  them?

One  of  the  things  that  makes  life 
interesting  and  at  the  same  time 
turbulent  is  the  prevalence  of  dif- 
ferent viewpoints. 

Someone  once  said  that  there  is  a 
good  chance  that  if  you  believe  h  hat 
everybody  else  appears  to  believe, 
you  are  probably  wrong,  .\s  times  change  and  the  world 
changes,  opinions  strongly  held  at  a  certain  point  in  time 
might  noH  be  invalid.  A  lot  depends  on  where  one  is 
standing  when  he  makes  his  observation.' 

If  one  looks  at  the  palm  of  his  hand,  he  could  describe 
a  hand  as  being  smooth-skinned  and  w  ithout  hair,  pores  or 
nails.  The  back  of  the  hand  presents  a  different  picture,  so 
do  the  two  sides  of  a  coin. 

Next  time  you  get  to  thinking  that  your  idea  is  the  only 
one  that  possibly  be  correct,  take  another  look.  There  just 
may  be  something  in  the  way  the  other  fellow  sees  it. 

Incidentally,  your  views  on  this  or  any  other  thought 
you  read  here  are  always  welcomed  and  appreciated.

Puleo  Proposes  New 
School  Technology  Initiative 


School  Committee  candi- 
date Nick  Puleo,  proposes  a 
new  computer  technology 
initiative  in  Quincys 
schools,  aimed  at  increasing 
students  access  to  modern 
computers  and  high-tech 
programs. 

"Walk  into  any  office  to- 
day, and  every  desk  will  ha\  c 
a  computer  on  it,  he  said." 
Computers  and  the  skills  to 
use  them,  are  essential  for 
success  in  the  21st  century." 
"  We  need  to  reflect  the  in- 
creasing importance  of  tech- 
nology when  making  deci- 
sions for  our  schools." 

"We  have  come  to  the 
point  now  where  this  is  a 
necessity.  Placing  advanced 
technology  in  our  schools 
will  not  only  give  students 
the  chance  to  learn  about 
computers,  it  will  also  give 
students  and  teachers  the 
chance  to  access  new  infor- 
mation." 


Puleo  said  that  when 
gauging  a  city  or  town's  per- 
formance in  computer  edu- 
cation, the  most  important 
factor  to  analyze  is  the  num- 
ber of  students  per  modern 
computer.  According  lo  the 
published  statistics.  Quincy 
ranks  210  out  of  327  dis- 
tricts. He  said  that  means  209 
school  districts  across  the 
Commonwealth  give  stu- 
dents broader  access  to  com- 
puters and  other  related  tech- 
nologies. 

"In  looking  at  the  direc- 
tion of  other  districts,  it  is 
clear  that  more  can  be  done 
to  enhance  the  Quincy 
school  system's  technology 
infrastructure,"  said  Puleo. 
"Providing  children  with 
these  skills  will  give  them  a 
competitive  advantage  in 
both  college  and  the  work- 
place." 

The  plan  developed  by 
Puleo  would  be  phased  in 


through  four  stages.  The  first 
stage  would  increase  the 
district's  internet  capability 
and  web  usage.  Included  in 
this  would  be  a  web-based 
grading  system  and  tools  to 
allow  parents  and  teachers  to 
communicate  with  each 
other  more  effectively.  In  the 
.second  stage,  computer  labs 
would  be  modernized  and 
expanded.  The  third  stage 
would  be  to  provide  new  lan- 
guage labs  in  middle  and 
high  schools  for  students 
studying  foreign  languages, 
and  those  Iciiming  English  as 
a  second  language. 

The  fourth  stage,  which 
Puleo  called  the  most  aggres- 
sive, would  be  to  install  mod- 
em computers  with  internet 
access  and  projectors  in  ev- 
ery classroom  in  the  city.  He 
said  that  doing  so  will  give 


students  access  to  new  ways 
of  learning,  and  would  allow 
teachers  to  stay  on  the  cut- 
ling-edge  of  their  subject  ar- 
eas. 

"1  realize  that  this  plan 
sets  some  aggressive  and  dil- 
ilcult  goal  for  us  as  a  city,  and 
lor  the  school  system  in  par- 
ticular," said  Pulei>.  "But  1 
am  not  running  for  School 
Ci>nunittee  because  1  want  to 
do  the  easy  thing.  1  really 
believe  this  will  be  a  tremen- 
dous benefit  for  our  city." 

Puleo  said  that  the  scope 
of  the  plan  would  require  that 
it  be  phased  in  over  five 
years.  Part  of  the  plan  would 
be  paid  for  by  the  new  $1 
million  quality  fund  he  pro- 
posed, he  .said.  Other  fund- 
ing would  be  raised  through 
grants  and  business  partner- 
ships.

Red  Raiders  Anticipate 
A  Successful  Season 


(Con  V  From  Pa  tic  1^1 

thwarted  by  the  solid 
defensive  containment  from 
Schow  and  Keaney.  But  late 
in  the  second  half,  a  high 
arcing  Milton  pass  from  40 
yards  out  bounced  too  high 
for  Louis  to  clear  successfully 
from  his  goal  Une.  A  trailing 
Milton  forward  pushed  the 
ball  across  the  goal  line  to  tie 
the  game  at  2-2. 

This  fall,  two  new 
members  joined  Hanlon's 
coaching  staff.  Rick 
DeCristofaro,  Jr.  takes  over 
the  junior  varsity  and  Chris 
Ranft  joins  the  NQ  coaching 
staff  as  the  freshman/ 
assistant  varsity  coach. 
DeCristofaro  is  a  Guidance 
Counselor  at  NQ   High 


School  and  Ranft  teaches 
seventh  grade  science  at 
Atlantic  Middle  School. 

"Rick  and  Chris  have  been 
tremendous  additions," 
Hanlon  said.  "They  are  really 
helping  us  develop  the 
program  in  the  direction  we 
would  like  to  go.  We  were 
hoping  to  build  a  freshman 
program  but  so  far  haven't 
had  enough  boys  come  out 
for  soccer  to  field  a  team. 
Hopefully  that  will  change 
next  year,  but  for  now  Chris 
has  been  helping  with  the 
varsity  and  in  conditioning 
for  the  whole  team." 

Coach  DeCristofaro's 
junior  varsity  team  opened 
their  season  with  a  4-1  win 
over  Milton  before  falhng  to 
Falmouth  in  a  close  game,  2- 


1. 

Members  of  the  jawec 
team  include  juniors  Zach 
Helfrich,  Rich  Kurt/man  and 
Nathan  Mooney, 

sophomores  Kevin  Therrien, 
John  Couchenour,  Tim  Gillis, 
Cody  Cot,  Brian  O'Connell, 
Alfredo  Cabrera,  Jake 
Mullaney,  Evan  Detwiler, 
Leo  PuUuqi  and  Daniel  Ho 
and  freshmen  Ricky  Long, 
Matt  Brean,  Ossama  Senhaj, 
Brendon  Nealon,  Yasser 
Elhomoumi  and  Rahmy 
Eltoury. 

North  Quincy  played 
against  Whitman-Hanson  on 
Monday  and  Marshfield  on 
Wednesday.  Their  next  home 
game  is  tomorrow  (Friday) 
at  4  p.m.  at  Teal  Field.

That  won't  change  now, 
Gardner  said,  noting  that 
volunteers  for  local 
emergencies  are  already 
called  from  the  Cambridge 
headquarters. 

John  l.avery,  the  chief 
operating  officer  for  the  Red 
Cross  Massachusetts  Bay 
chapter,  said  that  services  will 
remain  the  same  for  Quincy 
and  there  will  be  no  change 
in  disaster  relief. 

He  said  he  believes  the 
staffing  change  is  "a  way  to 
centrali/e  our  support 
ser\  ices.  The  bott(Mii  line  is 
we  v\  ant  to  be  most  efficient 
ill  the  u.se  t)f  donor  dollars." 

.As  for  Red  Crt)ss 
ciiicigency  calls,  Lavery  said 
the  response  is  alread\ 
coordinaieil  out  o{' 
Cambridge  where  the  Red 
Cross  vehicles  used  for  the 
Disaster  Response  I  earn  are 
iiaraiied.

girl  suffered  attacks  which 
began  when  she  was  about 
five  years  old. 

L'ntil  recently,  the  doctors 
never  diagnosed  the  real 
problem  because  the 
condition  is  so  rare 

"They  always  blamed  it 
on  asthma."  said  Rizzo. 

Now  Lisa  is  waiting  with 
Acacia  for  the  transplants.  In 
the  meantime,  all  the  bills 
are  piling  up  for  medical  and 
living  expenses.  They  will 
have  no  income  for  four  to  1 2 
months. 

Lisa  K>ng  ago  used  up  her 
sick  time  from  her  job  at  the 
Lynch  School  in  Middleboro 
where  she  is  an  elementary 
school  teacher. 

Now  Lisa's  family  and

financial  worries  for  both 
mother  and  daughter.

Post  Island  Road  Dog  Issue  Being 
Brought  To  Mayor's  Meeting  Tonight 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

An  owner  or  keeper  of  an 
animal  shall  remove,  and 
dispose  of  any  feces  left  by- 
such  animal  on  any  sidewalk, 
street,  park  or  other  public 
area,  or  on  any  private  prop- 
erty which  is  not  owned  or 
occupied  by  such  owner 

If  an  animal  defecates  on 
property  other  than  that  of 
the  owner  or  keeper,  the 
owner  or  keeper  of  the  ani- 
mal is  responsible  for  the 
immediate  removal  of  the  fe- 
ces. 

That's  Ordinance 

6.04.030  in  the  city  of 
Quincy  bylaws,  but  to  Mrs. 
Dianne  Kane-McGunigle  it's 
just  so  many  words  on  an- 
other piece  of  paper,  more 
honored  in  the  breach  than  in 
the  observance. 

For  the  past  10  months, 
Mrs.  McGunigle  and  her 
husband,  Joe,  a  Quincy  po- 
lice officer,  have  been  at 
odds  with  some  of  their 
neighbors  in  the  Post  Island 
Road  section  of  Houghs 
Neck.

McGUNIGLES,  Dianne  and  Joseph,  take  their  year-old 
Rottweillor,  Boris,  for  a  walk  outside  their  home  at  44  Post 
Island  Rd.  in  Houghs  Neck.  McGunigles  are  engaged  in  a 
dispute  with  the  city  over  what  they  say  is  lack  of  enforcement 
of  leash  and  excrement  ordinances. 

Quincy  Sun  photo/Robert  Noble 


The  neighbors'  dogs,  say 
the  McGunigles,  are  roaming 
unleashed,  leaving  fecal  call- 
ing cards  on  the  beaches  and 
public  ways  and  have  bitten 
a  mailman,  terrorized  other 
dogs  and  "lunged"  at  a  6- 
months-old  baby. 

The  McGunigles  hope  to 
bring  the  problem  to  a  head 
tonight  (Thursday)  when 
Mayor  William  Phelan  holds 
a  "Neighborhood  First" 
meeting  from  5  to  7  p.m.  at 
the  Adams  Shore  Public  Li- 
brary, 51 '^  Sea  St. 

For  the  past  week,  Dianne 
has  been  sending  notes  to 
"every(»ne  1  could  get  to  in 
Ward  1"  urging  them  to  at- 
tend the  meeting  and  "ask  the 
Mayor  why  he  told  the 
McGunigles  to  let  it  go  and 
not  do  anything  to  stop  the 
offenders." 

She  said  her  husband  was 
suspended  by  Police  Chief 
Robert  Crowley  for  writing 
citations  on  the  "guilty  irre- 
sponsible dog  owners"  and

Study  On 

Insurance 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

After  over  three  hours 
discussion  Monday,  City 
Councillors  sent  the  state's 
health  insurance  back  to  the 
Ordinance  Conmiittee  for 
lurthi'i  sujdy  and  cclucation 
of  the  council  and  the  public. 

In  addition,  councillors 
voted  not  to  consider  any 
further  vote  on  joining  the 
state  health  insurance 
program,  known  as  the 
G.l.C,  until  two  additional 
requirements  are  met. 

The  first  is  that  the  city's 
Public  limployces 

Committee  (PEC)  be

3  Restaurants  Get 

License  Warnings 

In  Police  'Sting' 


By  MARIE  D'OLIMPIO 

As  a  result  of  a  'sting'  on 
Sept.  1,  by  l-t.  Peter 
Turowski  and  Officer  Ken 
Yee,  conducted  at  40  pour- 
ing establishments,  the  Li- 
cense Board  Tuesday  issued 
warnings  to  three  restaurants 
for  serving  alcohol  to  mi- 
nors. 

The  China  Pearl  Restau- 
rant at  237  Quincy  Ave.,  for- 
merly the  International  Buf- 
fet, received  a  written  warn- 
ing effective  for  one  year.  If 
there  is  a  second  violation 
within  the  year,  then  it  would 
be  considered  a  second  of- 
fense requiring  a  suspension. 

Lt.  Peter  Turowski  said 
when  asked  why  the  under- 
age person  was  not  asked  for 
an  ID,  he  replied  he  was  **too 
busy". 

Owner  Brian  Moi  told  the 
board  that  he  warned  his 
employees,  that  no  matter 
how  busy,  they  are  respon- 
sible and  need  to  ask  for  an 
ID. 

The  Fuji  Restaurant,  1546 


Hancock  St..  was  issued  a 
one  day  suspension  with  one 
day  suspended  for  serving 
alcohol  to  a  minor,  and 
placed  on  file. 

Fuji  had  a  previous  vio- 
lation in  2005  for  having  al- 
cohol on  the  tables  after 
hours. 

Tony  Liang,  manager  on 
duty  the  night  of  the  viola- 
tion said  he  was  "upsset  and 
surprised"  and  has  taken 
"multiple  steps"  that  it  not 
happen  again. 

Liang  told  the  board  he 
has  confiscated  "many  fake 
id's"  and  has  sent  then  to 
Turowski. 

Callahan's  Tap,  296 
Copeland  St.,  was  given  a 
written  warning.  Owner  Ed- 
ward P.  McNulty  said  he  has 
owned  Callahans  for  18 
years  and  never  had  a  viola- 
tion. 

He  said  that  his  place  usu- 
ally caters  to  a  more  "mature 
group"  and  was  surprised 
when  he  heard  the  underage 
person  was  "only  17".

At  Krabby  Joe's  at  Ma- 
rina Bay  which  was  not  part 
of  the  sting,  received  a  writ- 
ten warning  in  effect  for  one 
year  for  a  violation  on  Aug. 
22  when  officer  Ken  Yee 
found  four  persons  outside 
on  the  deck  with  drinks  at  1 0 
p.m.  When  ased  for  an  ID, 
only  one  out  of  the  four  had 
one. 

Kristie  Hendriksen, 
owner  of  Krabby  Joe's  said 
they  were  "definitely  at 
fault"  and  apologized.  She 
said  it  was  "very  frustrating 
and  embarrassing".  She  said 
she  has  since  fired  the  wait- 
ress who  served  the  alcohol 
for  not  asking  for  an  ID. 

Chairman  Jsoeph  Shea 
read  a  letter  from  the  Marina 
Bay  Civic  Assocition  stating 
that  Krabby  Joe's  received 
an  extension  of  hours  in 
May  which  was  to  be  re- 
viewed in  the  fall.  In  the  let- 
ter, it  stated  that  they  hoped 
that  when  it  is  reviewed,  that 
the  violation  would  be  con- 
sidered. 

Hendriksen  said  she  was 
"surprised"  at  the  letter 
sayng  that  she  had  joined  the 
civic  association  in  the  hopes 
of  improving  reltations  and 
said  she  knew  nothing  about 
the  letter  until  Tueday's 
meeting. 

Health  Commisioner 
Drew  Scheele  said  it  will 
"definitey  come  up"  during 
the  review. 

Shea  sent  out  a  list  of  the 
new  schedule  of  meetings  of 
the  License  Board  which  will 
now  take  place  at  4  p.m.  in- 
stead of  10  a.m.  starting  in

Would  Double  Police  Drug  Unit 

Koch  Unveils  Aggressive 
Crime  Fighting  Plan 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  announced  an  aggres- 
sive plan  to  combat  the  city's 
drug  dealers,  noting  that  new 
federal  statistics  show  a 
sharp  spike  last  year  in  bur- 
glaries, larcenies  and  other 
property-related  crimes  in 
Quincy. 

■'Property  crimes  are  di- 
rectly related  to  the  drug 
trade,  and  its  high  time  that 
the  mayor's  oflice  demon- 
strated real  and  honest  lead- 
ership in  tackling  the  drug 
crime  issue  in  Quincy,'"  Koch 
said. 

The  Department  of  Jus- 
tice released  FBI  statistics 
Monday  showing  an  1 8-per- 
cent increase  in  2006  prop- 
erty crime  overall  in  Quincy, 
with  a  22-percent  jump  in 
burglaries  and  a  19-percent 
increase  in  larcenies.  Crimi- 
nologists say  addicts  seeking 
money  to  buy  drugs  commit 
the  majority  of  property 
crimes,  Koch  said. 

As  part  of  his  "Leadership 
Now"  program,  Koch 
pledged  to  double  the  size  of 
the  police  department's  drug 
unit  and  add  drug-sniffing 
dogs  to  the  department.  The 
department's  sole  police  dog 
is  not  specially  trained  to 
detect  drugs. 

"Again  and  again,  this 
mayor  has  refused  to  ac- 
knowledge the  drug  problem 
in  our  city.  These  statistics 
make  very  clear  what  he 
doesn't  want  to  admit.  It's 
time  we  show  the  dealers  and 
users  that  we're  not  going  to 
let  them  harm  our  neighbor- 
hoods any  more,"  Koch  said. 

Also  in  Koch's  public 
safety  plan: 

Restore  partnerships  with 
state  and  federal  law  enforce- 
ment agencies,  which  have 
lapsed  in  recent  years.  The 
city  no  longer  has  a  detective 
assigned  to  joint  drug  task 
forces  led  by  either  the  fed- 
eral Drug  Enforcement 
Agency  or  the  Norfolk 
County  District  Attorney's 
Office,  said  Koch. 


Double  the  size  of  the  police 
department's  drug  unit  using 
existing  resources,  including 
shifting  detectives  from 
other  assignments  and  using 
the  Community  Police  Unit 
as  part  of  drug  investigations 
per  discussions  with  depart- 
ment leaders. 

Revisit  an  agreement  with 
the  MBTA  Transit  Police  that 
called  for  more  cooperation 
in  patrolling  T-stations  in  the 
city  but  has  largely  been  ig- 
nored. 

Begin  making  use  of  avail- 
able grant  money  for  addi- 
tional training  and  resources 
to  combat  drug  abuse  and 
dealing  in  Quincy. 
Designate  a  public  informa- 
tion officer  to  be  available 
during  every  shift  to  provide 
timely  and  thorough  infor- 
mation to  the  public  and  the 
media,  without  interference 
from  city  hall.  The  public 
information  officer  will  also 
be  responsible  for  alerting 
the  public  to  situations  that 
deserve  their  attention,  such 
as  the  series  of  house  break- 
ins  in  Wollaston  earlier  this 
summer. 

Support  an  evaluation  by  the 
Massachusetts  Police  Ac- 
creditation Commission  as  a 
joint  exercise  to  improve 
morale  and  determine  the 
department's  strengths  and 
long-term  needs. 
Koch  added  that  strife  within 
the  police  department  has 
"gone  on  three  years  too 
long,"  adding  that  City  Hall 
has  an  obligation  to  step  in 
for  the  sake  of  the 
department's  future. 

"The  silence  from  City 
Hall  on  these  issues  is  posi- 
tively deafening,  and  that  is 
exactly  what  we  plan  to 
change,"  Koch  said.  "I'm 
under  no  delusion  that  seek- 
ing certification  will  end  the 
turmoil  in  the  police  depart- 
ment immediately,  but  it  is  a 
starting  point.  With  a  mayor 
willing  to  lead,  I  know  we 
can  do  better." 

Koch  also  said:

The  statistics  the  mayor 
uses  are  two  years  old. 

Quincy 's  overdose  rate  is 
nearly  60  percent  higher  than 
the  state  average. 

Quincy  had  more  drug 
overdoes  reported  than  any 
other  community  on  the 
South  Shore,  including 
Brockton. 

The  police  department 
made  a  record  number  of 
drug-related  arrests  last  year. 

In  April,  the  mayor  said 
of  the  drug  problem  in 
Quincy:  "We  have  a  real 
good  handle  on  that  issue  in 
Quincy." 

In  August,  the  mayor 
stated  that  it  does  not  appear 
the  drug  issue  is  affecting  the 
city's  crime  rate. 

Koch  said  the  mayor's 
record  on  public  safety  re- 
flects the  same  failure  to  lead 
that  will  cost  taxpayers  an 
additional  $46  million  to 
build  a  new  Quincy  High 
School;  lost  state  funding  for 
a  new  Central  Middle 
School;  has  refused  to  be 
honest  about  rising  taxes; 
and  has  not  addressed  traffic 
and  overdevelopment  in  city 
neighborhoods. 

Koch,  who  resigned  as 
Phelan's  park  commissioner 
in  January  to  run  for  mayor, 
challenged  what  he  called 
Phelan's  "bizarre"  standard 
response  when  questioned 
about  public  safety  issues,  in 
which  he  touts  a  private 
firm's  crime  rankings  for  cit- 
ies and  towns.

Original  Father  Bill's 
Place  Closed  For  Good 


One  of  the  three  original 
homeless  shelters  that  joined 
forces  to  become  Father 
Bill's  Place  closed  its  doors 
for  good  Tuesday  morning. 

The  Homeless  Women's 
Shelter  in  the  basement  of 
the  old  St.  John's  School  at 
44  School  St.,  hadn't  seen  a 
client  in  some  two  years. 

"It's  not  often  we  close  a 
shelter  for  a  good  reason," 
said  Philip  Mangano,  execu- 
tive director  of  the  U.  S.  In- 
teragency Council  on 
Homelessness. 

"For  years,  38  women 
slept  in  the  basement  of  St. 
John's  School,"  said  John 
Yazwinski,  executive  direc- 
tor of  Father  Bill's  Place. 

"Closing  this  shelter 
shows  that  our  housing  pro- 
gram works.  We're  not  here 
to  manage  homelessness  — 
we're  here  to  end  it." 

Closure  of  the  former 
shelter  spotlighted  the  suc- 
cess of  Quincy's  10- Year

PETER  FORMAN,  executive  chairman  of  the  Quincy  Leader-

THE  HISTORY  CHANNE 


•  On  Sept.  27,  1854,  the 

luxury  ship  Arctic  slams  into 
the  steamer  Vesta  off  the 
coast  of  Newfoundland.  Des- 
perate Arctic  crewmembers

ship's  high-ranking  officers 
tried  to  stop  them,  the  crew 
killed  him.  The  final  70  peo- 
ple left  on  board  crowded

vived.

By  the  time  the  epidemic 
ended,  an  estimated  30  mil-

impression  on  American 
audiences  with  his  portrayal 
of  the  angry,  restless  young 
man.  His  three  films  were

A  Black  Cat? 


PHELAN 


Could  there  be  a  black  cat  lurking  in  the  background 
in  this  year's  mayoral  election? 
One  you  might  call  "Jinx." 

And,  one  Mayor  William  Phelan  and  challenger 
Tom  Koch  wouldn't 
want  to  have  cross 
their  path  along  the 
campaign  trail. 

Koch,  with  deep 
roots  in  North 
Quincy  has  a 
footnote  in  Quincy' s 
political  history  to 

overcome.  No  one  from  Ward  6  has  ever  been  elected 
mayor. 

That's  something  he'd  like  to  change. 
Phelan.  who  is  seeking  his  fourth  term,  also  has  a 
footnote  to  contend  with. 

Six  incumbent  mayors  have  lost  re-election  bids 
under  Quincy's  Plan  A  chailer. 
Three  of  them  in  recent  years: 
Walter  Hannon  to  Joseph  LaRaia  by  483  in  that 
faiTious  recount  of  1975.  LaRaia  to  Arthur  Tobin  in 
1 977.  And  James  Sheets  to  Phelan  by  1 7  votes  in  2001 , 
the  city's  closest  mayoral  election. 

The  three  other  mayors  who  were  defeated  for  re- 
election, notes  former  Mayor  Frank  McCauley,  the 
city's  political  historian  were: 

William  Bradford  to  Gustave  Bates  in  1 922,  Bates  to 
Perley  Barbour  in  1 924  and  Thomas  McGrath  to  Charles 
Ross  in  1932. 

What  will  be  the  new  footnote  come  Tuesday,  Nov. 
7? 

□ 
MAYORAL  TRIVIA:  Did  you  know  that  Ward  I 
has  produced  seven  mayors-the  most  in  the  city's 
history? 

The  seven,  all  of  whom  rose  from  ward  councillor: 
Charles  Francis  Adams,  elected  in  1896,  Joseph 
Whiton  (1917),  Perley  Barbour  (1925),  Thomas 
McGrath  (1927),  Thomas  Burgin  (1935),  David 
Mcintosh  (Plan  E,  1952)  and  Frank  McCauley  ( 1982). 
William  Phelan  would  have  made  it  eight  but  is 
Monroe  Road  home,  which  was  once  in  Ward  1,  was 
redistricted  into  Ward  5. 

And  that  made  him  the  fourth  mayor  from  Ward  5. 
The  other  three:  Henry  Fairbanks  ( 1 890),  Charles  Bryant 
(1902)  and  Walter  Hannon  (1972). 

The  latter  three  came  up  from  ward  councillor  but 
Phelan  jumped  to  the  mayor's  office  from  the  school 


committee. 

Three  mayors  came  out  of  Ward  3:  James  Thompson 
(1906),  Charles  Ross  ( 1934)  and  Amelio  Delia  Chiesa 
(1958). 

Ward  2  and  Ward  4  have  two  mayors  each.  Ward  2's 
Eugene  Stone  ( 1 9 1 2)  and  Joseph  LaRaia  ( 1 976).  Ward 
4's  William  Shea  ( 1 9 1 0)  and  James  Sheets  ( 1 990). 
□ 

GOING  INTO  THIS  year's 
election,  as  noted  above,  no  one  from 
Ward  6  has  been  elected  mayor. 

Joanne  Condon-Walsh,  the  second 
woman  elected  to  the  council,  and 
serving  Ward  6,  tried  in  1985  to 
become  the  first  from  that  ward  and 
the  first  ever  woman  mayor,  but  was 
turned  back  by  incumbent  Frank  McCauley.

QUINCY  NATIVE  Ron  Delia  Chiesa  is  .still  doing 
his  part  to  keep  popular  and  classical 
music  alive. 

Ron  hosts  a  "Strictly  Sinatra" 

program  Saturday's  7  to  midnight  on 

WPLM  (Easy  99. 1  FM)  in  Plymouth. 

And  there's  plenty  of  Sinatra  to  fill 

those  hours. 

Ron  notes  Sinatra  recorded 
something  like  2,000  songs  and  120 
albums  during  his  career. 

Ron,  of  course,  was  a  mainstay  at  WGBH  for  35 
years,  playing  the  music  of  and  interviewing  such 
notables  as  Ella  Fitzgerald,  Rosemary  Clooney,  Tony 
Bennett,  Mel  Torme,  Buddy  Rich,  Lionel  Hampton, 
Margaret  Whiting,  John  Williams,  Robert  Merrill,  etc. 
He  is  now  writing  a  book  about  his  career,  the  stars 
he  has  met  and  interviewed,  and  growing  up  in  Quincy. 
He  and  his  wife,  Joyce,  now  live  in  Dorchester  but 
his  heart  and  roots  are  still  very  much  in  Quincy  where 
his  father,  Aldo,  was  Ward  3  councillor  and  his  uncle, 
Amelio,  was  one  of  Quincy's  all-time  popular  mayors.

*^!&*  "  >4»Si-" 


THIS  1916  real  photo  postcard  is  a  view  of  Sea  Street 
from  near  the  end  of  South  Shore  Ride,  looking  east 
towards  The  Willows  in  Houghs  Neck.  Kilby  Street  is 
just  out  of  view  on  the  right.  All  of  the  cottages  that  can 
be  seen  here  were  built  on  land  that  was  known  then  as 
Rye  Island.  Post  Island,  mistakenly  noted  on  the  post- 
card, is  to  the  left  and  behind  the  photographer.  Ten 
years  before  this  picture  was  taken  real  estate  develop- 
ers had  bought  Rye  Island  and  laid  out  waterfront  lots 
on  the  left  and  small  lots  for  cottages  along  with  the 
short  "alphabet"  streets  on  the  right  of  Sea  Street.  The 
streets  dead-ended  at  the  Metropolitan  Sewerage 
Commission's  high-level  sewer  main  known  as  the  dike, 
.which  is  visible  on  the  right.  Rye  Island  was  the  east- 


ernmost  portion  of  the  Adams  family's  Mount 
Wollaston  Farm  at  Merrymount.  Today,  most  of  the 
cottages  in  this  view  are  still  standing,  albeit  enlarged 
and  converted  into  year-round  homes.  Sea  Street  is  a 
few  feet  higher  along  here  now  as  the  city  raised  it  and 
built  seawalls  to  keep  if  from  being  under  water  at  high 
tides.  The  people  show  n  here  were  standing  in  the  un- 
paved  street  waiting  to  board  the  approaching  electric 
trolley  on  its  way  to  Quincy  Square.  The  trolley  is  just 
about  at  the  boardwalk  to  the  dike  where  many  Neckers 
claim  The  Willows  begins.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-

Says  School  Committee  Change  Needed 


Recent  events  cry  out  for 
change  on  the  Quincy  School 
Committee. 

Construction  of  the  new 
Quincy  High  School  is  fi- 
nally underway  after  de- 
cades, but,  at  a  cost  of  tens 
of  millions  of  additional  dol- 
lars to  taxpayers.  Contract 
negotiations  with  school  per- 
sonnel have  left  a  sour  taste 
in  everyone's  mouth. 

The  school  year  started 
out  short  on  supplies  and 
with  ongoing  technology  is- 


sues. These  are  just  a  few  of 
the  issues  that  show  the 
School  Committee  needs 
someone  with  skills  in  the 
area  of  budget  management. 
Candidate  Nick  Puleo,  a  se- 
nior budget  analyst  for  the 
state,  is  just  the  person  to  fill 
that  need. 

Nick's  professional  ex- 
pertise would  bring  much- 
needed  experience  that  could 
help  squeeze  more  out  of  the 
school  department's  current 
budget.  He  has  the  skills  to 


find  new  funding  sources  to 
help  bring  our  school  system 
into  21"  century.  His  vision 
of  a  $1  million  Quality  Fund, 
using  money  reimbursed  to 
the  city  by  Medicaid  for  ser- 
vices provided  to  students,  is 
a  great  start.  Also,  someone 
who  thinks  the  School  Com- 
mittee and  City  Council 
should  work  more  closely 
together  for  the  benefit  of 
Quincy's  students  is  really 
on  the  right  track. 

Nick's  plan  to  find  new 


funding  sources  at  no  cost  to 
taxpayers;  to  provide  the  best 
opportunities  to  students 
both  during  and  after  school; 
to  improve  technology;  and 
to  build  a  cooperative  and 
support  relationship  with 
school  personnel  will  be  a 
great  benefit  to  our  city.  It 
tells  me  that  he  has  what  the 
citizens  of  Quincy  need  in  a 
School  Committee  member.

One  More  Letter  And  The  Communist  Chinese  Flag 


Here  I  am  in  my  last  few 
days  still  somewhere  be- 
tween North  Quincy  and 
Dorchester  and  I  couldn't 
help  sending  out  just  one  last 
letter  as  still  an  actual  Quincy 
resident. 

On  last  Saturday,  while 
travelling  down  to  St.  Ann's 
for  the  4  o'clock  Mass,  I 
passed  by  Wollaston  Center. 
As  I  stopped  for  the  lights 
next  to  Papa  Gino's,  I  looked 
up  across  the  street  to  find 
the  Communist  Chinese  flag 
once  again  flying  on  a  flag- 
pole near  the  American  flag. 
Maybe  because  I'm  a  Taurus 
the  color  red  gets  a  bad  reac- 
tion out  of  me. 

The  flying  of  the  flag  of 
the  People's  Republic  of 
China  bothers  me.  I  wish  I 
could  be  oblivious  to  it,  but 
I  can't. 

China  is  the  largest  dicta- 
torship in  the  world  today. 
They  are  also  the  largest  trad- 
ing partners  in  the  world. 

The  same  freedom  that 
allows   someone   in   the 


Quincy's  growing  Chinese 
community  is  non-existent  in 
China  since  the  world's  larg- 
est country  is  a  no-show 
when  it  comes  to  democracy. 
As  I  watch  the  two  young 
Asian  candidates  running  for 
public  office  in  Quincy, 
Jimmy  Liang  for  Ward  Six 
councillor  and  Victor  Ng  for 
councillor  at-Large,  I  am 
hopeful  that  the  growing 
Americanization  of  Quincy's 


Asian  community  will  make 
the  flying  of  the  Communist 
Chinese  flag  irrelevant. 

It  is  one  thing  to  remem- 
ber your  roots.  Liang  is  a 
naturalized  American  and 
Ng  is  a  first-generation  Asian 
American. 

These  two  candidates  rep- 
resent the  future  pohtical  pic- 
ture of  Quincy  and  not  the 
foreign  flag  of  Chinese  dic- 
tators. 


America  is  strong  enough 
to  allow  tlags  wc  don't  like 
to  see  flying.  It  says  some- 
thing about  America. 

The  flying  of  the  People's 
Republic  of  China  flag  is  less 
an  insult  to  America  and 
more  an  embarrassment  of 
our  growing  Asian  popula- 
tion.

culture  of  their  homeland. 

Today,  the  society  has  a 
third  generation  membership

The  world  may  know  the 
Salvation  Army  from  its  good 
works  to  millions  of  needy 
nearby  and  across  oceans  and 
continents,  hut  the  foundation 
is  in  the  Bible  and  the 
teachings  of  Jesus  Christ, 
states  General  Bramwell 
Tiilsley,  former  worldwide 
leader  ofthe  Salvation  Army. 

"What  the  world  sees  are 
the  good  works,"  the  retired 
General  said  during  a  meeting 
last  week.  "They  don't 
always  see  the  spirituality." 

General  Tiilsley  and  his 
wife,  General  Maude 
Tiilsley,  are  the  first 
worldwide  leaders  of  the 
Salvation  Army  to  visit 
Quincy.  Last  weekend,  they 
conducted  a  three-day 
workshop  and  ministry  on 
"Living  Life  in  the  Spirit" 
which  nearly  filled  the 
Chapel  at  the  Quincy  Temple 
Corps  on  Baxter  Street  for 
sessions  from  Friday  to 
Sunday. 

At  the  heart  of  the 
Salvation  Army  is  the 
spiritual  life  of  its  members, 
according  to  General  Tiilsley 
who  describes  the  Salvation 
Army  as  "  a  spiritual 
movement  with  an  acute 
social  conscience." 

Mrs.  General  Tiilsley 
noted  that  the  Salvation  Army 
was  founded  by  a  19th 
century  Methodist  minister. 
General  William  Booth,  who 
tried  to  bring  Christ  to  the 
slums  of  London  where 
Dickensonian  horrors 
abounded. 

However,  General  Booth 
soon  learned  that  "It' s  useless 
to  talk  to  a  man  about  the 
spirit  if  he  has  a  toothache," 
said  Mrs.  General  Tiilsley. 
First,  the  Salvation  Army 
attends  to  the  urgent  needs  of 
food,  clothing  and  housing, 
and  then  the  spiritual. 

People  know  the 
Salvation  Army  from  the 
holiday  bellringers  whose 
collections  fund  a  great 
number  of  Army  programs. 

What  people  forget,  said 
General  Tiilsley,  is  that  the 
Salvation  Army's  founder 
and  ministers,  through  the 
generations,  preached  in 


parks  and  on  street  comers. 

Unfortunately,  the  public 
doesn't  frequent  parks  in  the 
same  way  so  theie  are  few 
rallies  now,  he  said.  As  a 
result,  the  Army  has  lost  some 
visibility. 

Major  Douglas  Jones  and 
his  wife.  Major  Linda  Jones, 
as  leaders  of  the  Quincy 
Salvation  Army,  hosted  the 
Tillsleys.  It  was  a  special  treat 
for  the  Jones  as  the  Tillsleys 
had  been  their  teachers  when 
they  started  out  in  the  197()'s. 

Like  other  ministers  in  the 
Salvation  Armv,  both  the 
Jones  and  the  Tiilsley  are 
ordained  ministers.  Each 
couple  at  the  higher  level 
must  work  as  an  ordained 
team  in  the  Army.  The 
ministers  must  wear  the 
familiar  military  uniform  in 
public. 

At  Quincy  headquarters, 
the  Salvation  Army  not  only 
offers  Sunday  Services  over 
the  statement,  "Put  God 
First,"  but,  also,  programs  for 
seniorcitizens.  pre-schoolers 
and,  on  Friday  nights,  for 
teenagers.  A  local  Army 
group  offers  substance  abuse 
programs. 

The  need  is  great  in 
Quincy,  according  to  Jones 
who  said,  "There's  just  so 
much  that  we're  able  to  do. 
It's  never  ending."  He 
stretches  the  holiday  giving, 
donations  and  endowments 
across  twelve  months  each 
year  and  networks  with  social 
agencies. 

Jones  attributes  some  of 
the  heavy  demand  now  to 
inflation,  which  is  affecting 
rents  and  food.  The  tighmess, 
this  year,  comes  even  before 
the  cost  of  heating  oil  is 
factored  in 

So  successful  has  General 
Booth '  s  philosophy  been  that 
the  Salvation  Army  is  known 
throughout  the  world  for 
similar  good  works. 

Today,  there  are  over  1 .5 
million  members  in  110 
countries  and  the  Army's 
uniform  is  instantly  spotted 
in  any  public  place.  The 
Tillsleys  always  travel  in 
uniform,  as  do  all  ordained 
ministers  of  the  Army. 
Inevitably,  they  are  stopped. 


The  Salvation  Army  was 
in  New  Orleans  beft>re, 
during  and  after  Hunicane 
Katrina  and  at  Ground  Zero 
on  9/1  i  "before  the  first 
hiiildini:  fell."  she  added. 

She  recalled  speaking  to  a 
Port  Authority  employee 
who  said  of  9/ 1 1 ,  "I  was  there 
and  1  turned  and  the  Salvation 
Army  was  right  beside  me." 

"We've  tried  to  respond 
where  the  need  is,"  said  Mrs. 
General  Tiilsley  who  noted 
the  Salvation  Amiy  is  sought 
by  so  many  that  the  leadership 
in  London  must  make  hard 
choices  and  weigh  every 
request. 

"You  can  only  cut  the  pie 
in  so  many  pieces,"  she  said. 
Just  recently,  the  Army 
expanded  to  Greece  and 
Poland  at  the  request  of  those 
governments. 

"There' s  a  very  big  Army 
in  India,"  General  Tiilsley 
said,  noting  that  the  majority 
of  worldwide  members  are 
now  in  India  and  Africa 
where  the  Salvation  Army 
has  developed  a  base  of  native 
leadership. 

Today,  the  Army's  work 
in  India  focuses  on  medical 
needs  in  that  country  where 
leprosy  and  its  after-effects 
are  still  a  problem. 

In  Africa,  General  Tiilsley 
said  that  the  thrust  is 
education  and  work  on  the 
AIDS  scourge.  Many  such 
Salvation  Army  projects  are 
funded  through  contributions 
from  the  United  States. 

And  in  the  United  States 
and  big  cities  all  over  the 
world,  there  are  major 
problems. 

During  their  52-year 
ministry,  the  Tillsleys  have 
seen  seismic  changes  in 
society  where  drugs  now 
dominate  as  a  major  problem 
and  the  family  unit  is  often 
broken. 

"People  really  trust  the 
Salvation  Army,"  said 
General  Tiilsley  who  noted, 
"There' s  no  big  high  salaries 
being  paid  to  our  people." 

The  general  served  as 
worldwide  leader  for  over  a 
year  starting  in  1993  before 
health  problems  forced  his 
retirement.  He  and  Mrs. 
Tiilsley  now  live  in  Toronto.

Morrissey  Seeks 

60-Day  Extension 

On  State  Insurance  Plan 


Original  Father  Bill's 
Place  Closed  For  Good 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Senator  Michael 

Morrissey  suid  Tuesday  that 
he  will  seek  a  60-day 
extension  of  the  state  health 
insurance  deadline  for  all  the 
Commonwealth's  349  cities 
and  towns  now  eligible  to 
join  the  program. 

Morrissey  said  he  has 
been  working  on  the 
extension  with  Ijolores 
Mitchell,  Executive  Director 
of  the  Group  Insurance 
Commission  known  as  the 
G.I.C. 

Under  Morrissey's 
proposal,  the  October  1 
deadline  for  joining  the  G.I.C. 
would  be  extended  to 
December  3. 

"She's  helped  draft  the 
amendment,"  Morrissey  said 
referring  to  Mitchell  who 
originally  planned  to 
advertise  the  stale'health 
insurance  for  bidding  in 
October. 

Morrissey  spoke  in 
response  to  questions 
regarding  the  City  Council's 
vote  Monday,  Councillors 
unanimously  supported  a 
Home  Rule  Petition 
requested  by  Mayor  William 
Phelan  to  extend  the  deadline 
to  Dec.  3. 

Phelan  has  said  that 
joining  the  state  health  plan 
could  save  the  city  $6  to  $8 
million  and  that  employees, 
themselves,  could  save  over 
$1  million  in  premiums. 

The  city's  petition, 
approved  unanimously 
Monday,  asks  the  legislature 
for  an  extension  of  the 
October  1  deadline  for  the 
City  of  Quincy  only. 

Morrissey  said  that  the 
only  way  the  Home  Rule 
Petition  could  be  considered 
would  be  as  an  amendment 
to  a  supplemental  budget.  It 


MICHAEL  MORRISSEY 

couldn't  be  considered  until 
after  October  1 . 

"The  chances  between 
now  and  October  1  are 
nil. "Morrissey  said,  then 
described  his  plan  to  seek  a 
statewide  extension. 

Rep.  Ron  Mariano  said 
the  city  would  have  a  better 
chance  if  the  60-day 
extension  is  sought  for 
Quincy  alone,  rather  than 
through  a  extension  for  the 
entire  state. 

"It's  easier  to  go  through 
this  as  an  individual  item." 
Mariano  said 

As  for  a  blanket  extension 
for  the  entire  state,  Mariano 
said  that  he  didn't  think  it 
would  pass  the  legislature, 
"No.  I  don't  think  so.  It  puts 
a  burden  on  the  G.I.C." 

Mariano  said  the  original 
time  restrictions  were 
deliberately  put  in  place  to 
allow  those  cities  and  towns 
which  are  ready  to  join 
sufficient  time  to  prepare 
paperwork. 

The  rest  of  the  state' ;s 
cities  and  towns  would  then 
have  a  year  to  consider 
joining  the  program. 

On  July  25,  Governor 
Deval  Patrick  signed 
legislation  allowing 

employees  of  the  state '  s  cities 
and  towns  to  join  the  G.I.C.

That  legislation  gave 
cities  and  towns  and  their 
employees  67  days  to  form 
the  required  Public 
Employees  Committee 
(PEC),  meet  notification 
requirements  and  tt>  vote  on

The  October  1  deadline 
allowed  the  state's  G.I.C.  to 
begin  the  bidding  process  lor 
the  state's  insurance 
program,  according  to 
Dolores  Mitchell,  Executive 
Director  of  the  G.I.C. 

A  60-day  extension  may 
not  be  long  enough  for  the 
city '  s  employees  and  retirees, 
according  to  testimony 
offered  at  Monday's  City 
Council  meeting. 

Speakers  noted  that  1 3  of 
the  city's  19  unions  are 
without  contracts  since  July 
2006.  They  said  that  health 
insurance  is  a  major 
negotiating  issue  and  that 
they  can  not  consider  the  state 
plan  until  they  have  contracts.

and  to  increase  the  number 
of  our  permanent  supportive

A  letter  Iroin  Sen.  .lohn 
Kerry  noted  that  all  Ameri-

benefit  from  modeling  their 
own  approach  Ut  addressing

"What  you  .ire  accom- 
plishing is  res(>unding  k^ud 
and  clear  duv\n  in  the 
nation's  capital  as  other  cit- 
ies and  towns  learn  about 
Quincy's  success,"  said  a 
note     from     Rep.      Bill 


Delahunt. 

Father  Bill's  Place,  now 
located  at  38  Broad  St.,  was 
formed  in  1 984-85  as  a  union 
oi'  the  Si.  John's  shelter  with 
those  of  the  Salvation  Army 
and  the  W'ollasti>n  Lutheran 
Church. 

The  basement  haven  shel- 
tered the  hiimeless  women  of 
Eather  Bill's  Place  in  its  fi- 
nal days  from  2()()()  to  2005 
when  it  closed  temporarily 
due  to  lack  of  clients. 

Father  Bill  McCarthy 
himself,  the  ftMiiier  pastor  of 
St.  John's  Church  who  was 
injured  in  a  fall  at  his  Cape 
Cod  retirement  venue,  ap- 
peared at  the  closing  celebra- 
tion and  delivered  a  reflec- 


tion. 

Besides  Phelan,  Mangano 
and  Ya/winski,  the  speakers 
at  the  event  were  Peter 
Forman,  executive  chairman 
of  the  Quincy  Leadership 
Council  on  Homelessness 
and  Nt>rmand  Grenier,  ex- 
ecutive director  c^f  Neighbor- 
hood Housing  Services. 

"Folks  have  been  skepti- 
cal abtmt  our  10-year  plan 
but  we  can  clearly  see  that 
it's  actually  working,"  said 
Phelan. 

"Our  chronically  home- 
less population  has  de- 
creased by  over  50  per  cent 
in  just  three  years.  We  are 
truly  ending  homelessness  in 
Quincy."

Bay  State  Family  Project  Aids  Substance  Abusers 


Bay  Slate  Community 
Services  of  Quincy  has  em- 
barked on  a  study  to  deter- 
mine if  family  counseling 
adiled  to  one-on-one  coun- 
seling increases  sobriety 
rales  among  alcohol  and 
drug  abusers. 

The  Family  Project,  con- 
ducted by  researchers  and 
clinicians  at  Harvard  Medi- 
cal School  as  well  as  Bay 


Slate,  offers  free  counseling 
lo  abusers  by  licensed  mas- 
ters-level therapists. 

Half  the  participants  in 
the  program  are  randomly 
assigned  to  receive  both  fam- 
ily and  one-on-one  counsel- 
ing. The  other  hall  receives 
one-on-one  counseling  but 
no  lamily  counseling. 

Treatment  includes  24 
counseling  sessions  over  12 


weeks  for  all  participants. 

Dr.  Daurice  C'o.x.  director 
of  Clinical  Services  at  Bay

Helen  Bailey  Celebrates  103rd  Birthday 
With  Party  At  Wollaston  Manor 

Helen  Bailey,  a  resident 
of  Wollaston  Manor,  91

and  ice  cream  with  her. 

Also  a  group  of  Freema-

to  honor  Helen  as  she  is

East  Coast  Petroleum  Wins 
National  Diversity  Award 


DiversityBusiness.com, 
the  nation's  leading 
multicultural  internet  site, 
has  named  East  Coast  Petro- 
leum of  Stoughton  as  one  of 
the  "Top  Diversity-owned

States". 

East  Coast  Petroleum  and 
its  CEO,  Loretta  DeGrazia, 
represent  the  country's  top 
female  and/or  multicultural 
earners  and  challenge  the 
long-held  notion  that  a  diver- 
sity-owned  business 

is  limited  or  insignificant. 

Diversity  members  are 
sought  after  by  major  corpo- 
rations wishing  to  increase 
spending  with  diversity- 
owned  companies.  Diversity 
busines.ses  are  found  in  such 
varied  sectors  as  technology, 
manufacturing,  food 

services,  professional  and 
industry  categories.

1000  corporations  through- 
out the  country  have  recog- 
nized that  buying  products 
and  services  from  diversity-

impacts  their  business.  Di-

contribute  over  $1.4  trillion 
in  sales  to  the  U.S.  economy. 
"Diversity  businesses  and

with,"  said  Kenton  Clarke, 
CEO  of  Computer  Consult-

is  a  whole  business  segment 
that  can  carry  its  own,  that 
provides  jobs,  products  and

Gloria  Bohan,  CEO  of

Post  Island  Road  Dog  Issue  Being  Brought  To  Mayor's  Meeting  Tonight 


i Cont'd  From  Pa^c  I) 
Mayor  about  it,  Phelan  told 
her  to  "Drop  it!  Let  it  go!" 

The  McGunigles  say  their 
troubles  began  last  Novem- 
ber, two  months  after  they 
moved  from  Merrymount 
into  their  "ocean  front  dream 
house"  at  145  Post  Island  Rd. 

"It  took  us  30  years,"  said 
Dianne,  "and  it  has  turned 
out  to  be  a  nightmare." 

She  was  walking  the 
family's  14-year-old 
Rottweiller  when  a  Great 
Dane,  unleashed,  charged  at 
the  elderly  canine,  who,  said 
Dianne,  could  barely  walk. 
The  dog's  owner,  she  said, 
"couldn't  have  cared  less." 

"I  saw  the  same  dog  drop 
feces  on  the  beach,"  she  said. 
"We  have  video  tape  to  prove 
it.  The  dog  officer  (Donald 
Conboy  Jr.)  has  witnessed  it 
him.self.  That  got  his  atten- 
tion." 

Conboy  talked  to  several 
of  the  dog  owners,  Dianne 
said,  and  told  her  "i  am  try- 
ing to  avoid  a  civil  war.'  I 
never  saw  Don  after  that." 

On  Jan.  3,  said  Dianne, 
she  was  attacked  by  a  Golden 
Labrador  that  tried  to  bite  her 
new  puppy,  a  9-month-old 
Rottweiller  named  Boris, 
who  is  so  friendly,  she  said, 
that  "  a  little  dog  can  beat 
him  up." 

The  same  dog,  she  said, 
bit  a  mailman  in  September 
and,  less  than  a  month  later, 
"lunged"       at       Joanne 


O'Connell's  6-month-old 
baby,  who  was  saved  from 
harm  "because  myself  and 
Joanne  have  fast  refiexes." 

Their  fears  were  not  taken 
seriously  at  a  hearing  down 
at  the  police  station,  she  said. 
Dianne  has  asked  for  another 
hearing  to  "reevaluate  the 
dangerousness  and  tempera- 
ment of  this  dog." 

"The  dog  owners  do  not 
take  the  city's  ordinances 
seriously,"  she  wrote  in  a  let- 
ter to  Chief  Crowley.  "They 
feel  that  the  ordinances  are  a 
joke.  There  is  no  account- 
ability when  citations  are 
given. 

"Why  should  I  be  petri- 
fied walking  my  dog?  Why 
are  these  dog  owners  getting 
away  with  breaking  the  law? 
Please  explain  this  to  me." 

A  week  after  Dianne's 
confrontation  with  the 
Golden  Lab,  Dog  Officer 
Conboy  sent  a  note  to  resi- 
dents of  Post  Island  Road 
pointing  out  it  was  illegal  to 
walk  their  dogs  on  the  beach 
from  May  1  to  Oct.  31  and 
they  were  required  by  law  to 
clean  up  after  them. 

Joe  McGunigle,  the  po- 
lice officer,  began  writing 
citations  for  dog  owners  who 
allowed  their  pets  to  run  un-

He  had  written  up  1 1  of 
them  and,  said  his  wife,  the 
dog  situation  on  Post  Island 
Road  was  improving  when 
Joe  was  directed  to  stop  "in- 
timidating and  harassing  his 
neighbors"  by  writing  the 
citations. 

He  was  suspended  for 
five  days  and  the  Police 
Patrolmen's  Association  has 
filed  a  grievance  over  it,  a 
complaint  that  is  currently 
being  processed. 

"It's  more  than  a  Post  Is- 
land Road  issue,"  said 
Dianne  Kane-McGunigle, 
"or  even  a  citywide  issue. 
There  are  federal  laws 
against  allowing  feces  to 
drain  into  the  harbor  and  pol- 
lute the  waters." 

Whatever  happens  at 
tonight's  meeting,  Dianne

Keohanes  Thank  Quincy 
On  75th  With  Day  For  Kids 


It  was  75  years  ago.  in  the 
depths  of  the  Depression, 
that  Cornelius  Keohane 
opened  a  storefront  funeral 
home  on  Hancock  Street  in 
North  Quincy. 

Now  the  owners  of  three 
homes  in  Quincy  and 
Hingham,  his  son,  lulward, 
and  grandsons,  Joiin  and 
Dennis,  observed  the  anni- 
versary Saturday  with  a  Kids 
Day  oflannly  fun  at  Pageant 
lie  Id 

"We  wantoil  to  say  thanks 
ti)  the  coninuinity,"  said  lul 
Keohane.  "We  thought  we'd 
get  5  or  600  peojile.  We  got 
well  over  4,(M)0,  We  ran  out 
of  hoi  di)gs  and  cotton 
candy." 

The  party,  tree  to  anyone 
who  could  get  there,  ran 
from  1 1  a.m.  to  2  p.m.  and 
featured  all  manner  of  kids' 
acli\  ities  and  games,  carni 
\  a!  amusenients,  iii>ny  rides, 
foiKJ,  he \e rages  and  a  !).!. 

llieie  was  even  a  demon- 
stration of  a  lu>l  an  balloon, 
too,  but.  forsaletN  's  sake,  no 
one  went  \oi  a  ride.  "It  was 
too  uindy,"  said  lid 
Keohane. 

Keohane  Funeral  Homes 
at  333  and  785  Hancock  St. 
were  going  concerns  in  1^)70 
when  Cornelius  turned  the 
business  over  to  the  ne.xt 
generation,  his  son.  Ed. 

The  original  storefront 
home  had  moved  into  333 
Hancock  St.  in  1943  and  the 
home  at  785  Hancock  St.. 
was  built  in  1959.  one  of  the 
first  to  be  constructed  spe- 
cifically as  a  funeral  home.

City  Council  Wants  More  Study  On  Insurance 


(Cont'd  From  Page  I) 

Phelan  has  said  the  city  could 
save  $6  to  $8  million  and  city 
employees  could  save  one 
million  dollars  by  joining  the 
state's  health  insurance  plan. 

That  60-day  extension 
may  not  be  long  enough  for 
the  city  to  reach  agreement 
with  its  unions  or  retirees  who 
said  they  need  time  to  study 
the  G.l.C,  to  consider 
alternative  plans  and  to 
educate  their  members. 

"It's  going  to  be  a  long 
process,"  Stephen  Moynihan, 
president  of  the  Quincy 
Retiree  Association  (QRA) 
said  Tuesday.  As  for  being 
ready  in  60  days,  Moynihan 
said,  "Absolutely  not." 

"There  has  to  be 
negotiation  between  the  City 
and  PEC."  Moynihan  said  of 
changes  in  the  insurance 
structure. 

Speakers  Monday 

repeatedly  noted  that  13  of 
the  city's  19  unions  are 
without  contracts  since  July 
2006  and  that  health 
insurance  is  a  major 
negotiating  issue. 

Several  union 

representatives  said  that  they 
could  not  consider  the  state 
health  insurance  plan  until 
they  have  contracts. 

Ernie  Arienti,  president  of 
the  205-member  firefighters' 
union,  said  that  his  union  has 
been  without  a  contract  since 
July  2006  and  mayor  had  "put 
the  cart  before  the  horse." 

As  for  passing  the  G.l.C. 
now,  Arienti  said,  "It  would 
negatively  affect 

negotiations." 


Arienti  objected  to  the 
way  the  issue  has  been  framed 
so  as  to  'pit  the  citizens 
against  the  employees." 

In  fact,  Arienti  pointed  out 
that  unions  sought  coalition 
bargaining  for  health  benefits 
two  years  ago  and  were 
rebuffed  by  Phelan. 

"We  do  not  want  to  rush 
into  this  plan,"  said  Carol 
Evans  who  spoke  for  the  39 
city  bus  drivers.  Evans  said  it 
was  like,  "They  blindfolded 
us  and  are  making  us  walk 
into  a  room." 

"A  majority  of  the  unions 
are  working  without 
contracts,"  said  Dominic 
Venturelli  w  ho  represents  the 
1 36  members  of  the  Quincy 
Public  Employees 

Association  (QPEA). 

Venturelli,  Arienti  and 
Paul  Phillips,  president  of  the 
Quincy  Education 

Association  (QEA)  all 
described  unsuccessful 
efforts  two  years  ago  to 
bargain  collectively  for 
health  benefits  in  a  coalition 
effort. 

"The  mayor  turned  it 
down,"  said  Venturelli,  "You 
never  saw  it  because  it  never 
got  past  the  mayor." 

"We  were  told  that  the 
city  was  not  interested,"  said 
Paul  Phillips,  president  of  the 
Quincy  Teachers  Association 
(QEA). 

Like  most  speakers, 
Venturelli  said,  "I'm  not 
against  the  G.l.C."  He  also 
warned  that  it's  not  an  $8 
million  savings  fore  the  city 
and  could,  in  fact,  cost  more 
if  employees  all  chose  a  more 


expensive  plan. 

Phillips  acknowledged 
that  his  union  is  the  key  to  the 
city's  decision  on  the  state 
insurance  plan  as  the  QEA 
represents  890  teachers  and 
40  Quincy  College 
employees. 

Those  membership 
numbers  gi\e  the  QEA  a 
decisive  39+  percent  vote  on 
the  city's  decision  to  join  the 
state's  health  insurance  plan. 
The  employees"  committee 
must  approve  joining  the 
G.l.C.  by  a  707r  majority. 

He  said  the  QEA  hired  a 
consultant  to  study  the  G .  1  .C. 
plan,  the  current  plans  and 
alternatives,  but  must  wait 
because  the  consultant  is 
preparing  data  for  another 
municipality. 

Phillips  quoted  G.l.C. 
Director  Dolores  Mitchell 
who  suggested  that 
communities  "study  this 
seven  ways  to  Sunday"  and 
get  "a  lead  time  of  six 
months." 

"1  am  not  authorized  to  sit 
in  on  a  PEC,"  Phillips  told 
the  City  Council  describing 
a  decision  by  the  QEA 
governing  board.  "They 
made  a  statement  about  the 
other  unions  not  having 
contracts." 

He  indicated  that  the  QEA 
would  not  participate  in 
G.l.C.  discussions  until  the 
city  finalizes  contracts  with 
the  13  union  currently 
without  contracts.  Most  of 
those  contracts  expired  in 
July  2006. 

"Let's  do  it  in  an 
intelligent  reasonable  way," 


Phillips  said  who  n\so  said  of 
the  state  health  legislation, 
"it's  written  in  a  muddled 
way." 

"They  had  real  problems 
with  this  in  Springfield," 
Phillips  said,  referring  to 
Springfield's  decisum  tojoin 
the  G.l.C.  as  part  of  its 
financial  bailout  last  year. 

"I've  got  900  people  that 
all  have  lives,"  Phillips  said 
'We  need  time.   We  can't 
have  this  shoved  down  out 
throat." 

Terrence  Downing 
represented  the  1 48-member 
police  patrolmen's  union 
because  the  president,  Bruce 
Tait,  had  a  death  in  his  family. 

"We  don't  want  to  go 
rampaging  down  the  road," 
said  Downing  who  said  they 
were  "very  concerned  about 


the  process." 

Downing  echoed  other 
union  leaders  when  he  said 
the  patrolmen  were  not 
against  the  proposal  but 
needed  time. 

The  health  insurance 
legislation  signed  by 
Governor  Deval  Patrick  on 
July  25  requires  30-days 
i>rficial  notice  to  each  union 
before  the  PEC  can  meet 
officially. 

None  of  the  city's 
previous  meetings  with 
empU)yee  representatives 
have  met  that  criteria, 
according  to  speakers  on 
Monday. 

Speakers  also  said  that 
their  unions  have  not  had  a 
chance  to  delegate  a 
representative  to  Public 
Employees      Committee 


(PEC)  which  plays  a  major 
role  in  joining  the  G.l.C. 

The  state's  health 
insurance  programs  now 
cover  272,000  employees, 
retirees  and  beneficiaries. 

On  July  25,  Governor 
Deval  Patrick  signed 
legislation  allowing 

employees  of  the  state' s  cities 
and  towns  tojoin  the  G.l.C. 

That  legislation  gave 
cities  and  towns  and  their 
employees  67  days  to  lorin 
the  required  Public 
Employees  Committee 
(F'EC),  meet  notification 
requirements  and  to  vote  on 
joining. 

After  leaders  spoke, 
David  Murphy,  Phelan's 
Director  of  Operations,  said 
that  none  of  the  speakers  had 
considered  the  taxpayers.

Jerousck  offers  these  fall 
maintenance  tips  for  a 
stronger,  healthier  lawn: 

1 .  "Fall  is  the  best  time  to 
strengthen  an  ailing  lawn, 
thanks  t(»  cooler  nights  and 
increased  rain,  both  of  which 
promote  turf  recovery  and 
rcmting,"  he  said.  He 
recommends  fertilizing  with 
the  Nature's  Touch  15-1-3 
formulation  for  thicker, 
greener  turf. 

2.  "Drop  yt)ur  mowing  cut 


height  to  2  inches  for  the  last 
mowing  of  the  season.  Thi.s 
helps  thicken  the  root 
structure  and  can  protect  the 
lawn  from  winter-related 
stress." 

3.  "Fall  aerification  helps 
feed  oxygen  to  the  lawn's 
root  structure,  which  sets  the 
stage  for  enhanced  color  and 
density.  Bagging  also  helps 
to  prevent  e.xeess  thatch 
buildup  and  allows  turf  to 
thicken  and  choke  out 
weeds."

Reverse  Mortgage 
Topic  At  Council  On  Aging 


QUINCY 


Ed  Barrett,  a  reverse 
mortgage  specialist,  will  dis- 
cuss his  specialty  on  the  first 
and  third  Wedne.sdays  of  the 
month  at  1  p.m.  at  the  Coun- 
cil on  .-Xging  office.  83 
Saratoga  St.,  North  Quincy. 

Reverse  mortgage  is  a 


program  offered  by  the  fed- 
eral government  that  allows 
seniors  to  convert  a  portion 
of  their  home  equity  into  tax 
free  cash. 

For  an  appointment,  call 
Ann  Bruce  at  61 7-376- 1506. 


one  of  your  win- 
;r-preparation 
columns  last  year,  you 
mentioned  storing  lawn 
mowers  and  removing  the 
spark  plug.  Why  do  that, 
and  what  else  is  involved 
in  storing  a  mower  for  the 
winter?  —  Pauline  S.,  via 
e-mail 

A  .Removing  the  spark 
•  plug  keeps  the  mower 
from  starting  up  as  you  go 
through  the  task  of  storing  it 
away  for  the  winter.  The 
mower's  exterior  should  be 
clean  and  free  of  grass  clip- 
pings and  dirt,  while  the 
motor  interior  should  be 
protected  by  a  coating  of  oil. 
Storing  a  lawn  mower 
prof)erly  will  increase  its 
lifespan  while  maintaining 
its  efficiency.  As  soon  as  the 
grass-cutting  season  is  over, 
take  the  following  steps  to 
put  your  mower  to  bed  for 
the  winter: 

•  Place  the  mower  in  a 
well-ventilated  area. 

•  Leaving  the  spark  plug  in 
for  the  moment,  drain  the 
gas  from  the  mower  tank

•  Start  the  et\gine  for  a  few 
seconds  to  bum  off  any 
remaining  gas,  then  turn  it 
off  and  remove  the  spark 
plug. 

•  Squirt  a  little  oil  into  the 
cylinder,  then  pull  the 
starter  cord  a  few  times  to 
distribute  the  oil  evenly. 
(After  this,  you  can  either 
replace  the  spark  plug,  or 
tape  it  on  the  side  of  the 
mower  to  replace  next 
spring.) 

•  Drain  the  oil  from  the 
crankcase. 

Once  the  motor  is  dealt 
with,  use  a  hose  to  spray 
grass  and  dirt  away  from  the 
underside  of  the  lawn  mow- 
er. This  is  a  good  time  to 
remove  the  mower  blades, 
clean  and  sharpen  them.  Let 
the  mower  dry  out  com- 
pletely before  storing  in  a 
dry,  out-of-the-way  spot.

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Saturday,  Sept.  1.  at  approximately  3:20  p.m., 
Officers  Dan  Francis  and  Tom  Pepdjonovic  were  dis- 
patched to  Hannaford  Brothers  Supermarket  on  a  re- 
port of  a  store  employee  being  assaulted  in  the  parking 
lot.  Sgt.  Patrick  Faherty  was  in  the  area  and  arrived  in 
the  parking  lot  first.  He  in- 
formed Communications  an 
assault  had  occurred  and 
that  the  suspect  lied  south- 
erly toward  Berlin  Street, 
providing  a  physical  and 
clothing  description. 

rhe  suspect  w  as  last  seen 
being  followed  by  a  store 
employee  because  the  sus- 
pect had  shoplifted.  The  sus- 
pect tied  out  the  store  with 

a  lull  red  basket  used  to  hand  carry  groceries.  An  em- 
ployee in  the  parking  lot  saw  the  suspect  run  out  ot  the 

store  and  tried  to  stop  him. 
The  suspect  then  as- 
saulted an  employee  who 
attempted  to  stop  him  Of- 
ficer Francis  and  Officer 
Pepdjonovic  periormed  a 
systematic  search  in  the 
backyards  in  the  area  of 
Hancock  Street  and  Berlin 
Street.  Officer  Francis  spot- 
ted a  man  matching  the  de- 
scription of  the  suspect  in  a 
backyard  and  recogm/ed  him  fn)m  numerous  incidents 
involving  domestic  violence. 

As  Officer  Francis  approached  the  suspect,  the  noted 
the  suspect  was  breathing  heavily,  sweating  profusely 
and  reeking  of  alcoholic  beverage.  When  asked  what  he 
was  doing  in  someone  else's  backyard,  the  suspect  \elled 
back,  "rm  helping  you  look  for  a  guy  that  jusi  ran 
through  here." 

Based  on  the  officer's  know  ledge  of  the  violent  past 
of  the  suspect,  that  he  did  not  live  nearby  and  that  the 
suspect  matched  the  description.  Officer  Francis  placed 
handcuffs  on  the  suspect  until  he  could  have  the  wit- 
ness ideniifv  him. 

The  store  employee  saw  Officer  Francis  w  ith  the  sus- 
pect and  spontaneously  said.  "That's  him."  The  suspect 
was  placed  under  arrest  and  transported  to  the  station 
for  biH)king. 

Sgt.  Faherty.  while  searchmg  the  area,  found  the  bas- 
ket of  food,  which  was  located  between  the  store  and 
where  the  suspeci  w.ts  discovered.  Officer  Francis  then 
interviewed  the  store  emplov ee  in  depth  and  learned  the 
emplovee  saw  the  suspect  run  out  of  the  store  with 
unbagged  items  still  in  the  red  basket,  so  he  ran  toward 
the  suspeci  and  told  him.  "Just  drop  the  basket." 

The  suspect  then  moved  toward  the  employee  and 
punched  hini  numerous  times,  then  tied.  The  employee 
blocked  most  o\  the  punches  and  did  not  require  medi- 
cal attention. 

The  Items  stolen  were  tallied  at  S71.47  and  the  re- 
ceipt given  [o  the  police  to  be  used  for  court  purposes. 

The  suspect,  a  4()-vear-old  Quincy  resident,  was 
charged  with  slu^pht'ting  and  assault  and  batterv.

Presidents  Clip  Clippers 
For  First  League  Victory 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

No  matter  if  it  is  high 
school  football  or  profes- 
sional football,  if  your  team 
wins  the  turnover  battle,  a 
victory  is  usually  in  the 
cards. 

The  Quincy  Presidents 
took  advantage  of  three 
Falmouth  High  School  mis- 
cues  -  including  two  in  the 
fourth  quarter-  last  Friday 
night  on  their  way  to  an  18- 
6  league  win.  With  the  vic- 
tory, Quincy  improved  its 
record  to  1-1  overall,  and  I- 
0  in  the  highly  competitive 
Atlantic  Coast  League. 

"Anytime  you  travel  all 
the  way  down  to  the  Cape 
and  come  away  with  a  league 
win,  it  is  big,"  said  head 
coach  Bob  Noble.  "The 
travel  can  make  for  a  long 
day  for  the  kids,  but  we  did 
some  good  things  and  capi- 
talized on  the  opportunities." 

And  capitalize  the  Presi- 
dents did.  Quincy  forced 
those  two  fourth  turnovers 
and  .scored  two  touchdowns 
on  their  ensuing  possessions 
to  break  what  had  been  a  6-6 
tie  through  three  quarters. 

Senior  running  back  Di- 
ego Arredondo  finished  off 
his  great  night  (16  carries, 
100  yards,  3  TDs)  with 
touchdown  runs  of  eight  and 
eleven  yards  to  seal  the  game 


FOOTBALL 


for  Quincy.  Arredondo  also 
scored  on  a  I  -yard  TD  run  in 
the  second  quarter,  which  at 
the  time  had  given  the  Presi- 
dents the  early  6-0  lead 
(Quincy  missed  all  three 
point  after  attempts). 

Arredondo,  who  is  also 
the  Presidents  punter,  aver- 
aged 45  yards  per  punt  and 
according  to  Noble  that  may 
have  been  the  most  signifi- 
cant aspect  of  the  game. 

"Diego  had  an  outstand- 
ing game  on  offense,"  he 
said.  "He  scored  three  touch- 
downs and  had  an  even  KX) 
yards  on  the  ground.  But  he 
also  punted  well.  His  punts 
continually  pinned  Falmouth 
back  deep  in  their  own  end 
and  as  a  result,  we  were  able 
to  force  their  offense  into 
making  mistakes  late  in  the 
game." 

Both  offenses  started 
slowly,  and  after  the  first 
quarter  of  play,  the  score  was 
0-0.  Arredondo  and  the 
Presidents  scored  early  in  the 
second  quarter,  but  right  be- 
fore the  halftime  whistle, 
Falmouth  knotted  the  game 
at  6-6  on  a  David  Martinho 
six  yard  touchdown  run. 

Entering  the  second  half 
and  playing  in  a  hostile  en- 


vironment, Quincy  decided  it 
was  about  that  time  to  start 
and  dominate  the  line  of 
Ncrimmage  on  both  offense 
and  defense.  Working  exclu- 
sively out  of  a  one-back  for- 
mation, Arredondo,  fullback/ 
H-back  Tim  Lewis  and  the 
offensive  line  took  control  of 
the  Clippers"  defensive  front. 
On  the  other  side  of  the  ball, 
the  defense  led  by  Lewis 
(sack,  forced  fumble,  INT) 
and  senior  captains  Matt 
Oriol  and  Zack  Olhson  wore 
down  Falmouth  with  smash 
mouth  tootball. 

"It  was  a  hard  fought 
game  throughout."  said 
Noble.  "In  the  sectjnd  half 
we  started  to  dominate  the 
line  plav  on  both  sides  of  the 
football  and  you  could  teli 
that  it  was  starting  to  wear 
them  down.  I  think  that  this 
shov\ed  up  in  the  fourth  quar- 
ter as  ue  forced  those  tum- 
o\ers  and  were  able  to  run 
the  ball  effectnelv  and  then 
Diego  scored  those  two 
touchdowns  to  put  the  game 
away." 

Noble  was  quick  to  point 

out  the  play  of  Lewis.  Only 

a  junior,  Lewis  stands  at  6"1 

and  220  pounds,  and  it  was

Raiders  Defeat  Randolph, 
Best  Start  In  Decade 


That's  two  wins  and 
counting  for  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raider  football 
team. 

The  Red  Raiders,  who  are 
off  to  their  best  start  in  over 
a  decade,  defeated  Randolph 
High  School  .M-:  last  Thurs 
day  to  run  their  early  season 
record  to  2-1  overall  and  1-0 
in  Atlantic  Coast  League 
play.  This  win  was  a  ci>mbi- 
nation  oi  both  offense  and 
defense,  and  the  results 
speak  to  the  stead)  progress 
head  ci>ach  .lim  Connor's 
team  is  making  in  2007.  but 
he  is  not  ready  just  yet  to  pre- 
pare his  team  for  a  Super 
Bowl  appearance. 

"It's  hard  to  process,  be- 
cause 1  feel  like  we  are  not 
2-1,"  Connor  said.  "1  feel 
like  we  have  so  much  work 
to  do  that  I  don't  feel  like  we 
are  a  2-1  team  yet.  We  can 
be  a  2- 1  team  and  I  am  proud 
of  the  kids  and  they  did  a 
good  job,  but  we  have  to 
keep  moving,  we  can't  end 
our  season  now." 

But  with  his  suddenly  ex- 
plosive oflfense  and  a  defense 
that  has  given  up  just  14 
points  over  the  last  eight 
quarters,  Connor  just  may 
have  to  get  used  to  his  team 


winning  big  games  when 
they  count. 

Junior  running  back  Jon 
Cahill  continued  to  punish 
opposing  defenses  with  his 
hard  running  and  his  un- 
cann\  ability  to  find  the  end 
/one.  0\or  the  first  throe

ho  ran  for  S2  \ards  and 
scored  two  IDs  But  it  was 
senu>r  l")anny  Jackson  who 
scored  first  to  put  tho  Rod 
Raiders  up  7-0. 

Jackson,  flanked  i>ut  to 
the  left,  caught  a  perfect  pass 
from  quarterback  Dennis 
NLulin,  and  raced  19  \\uds 
into  the  end  /one  to  put 
North  Quincy  up  7-0. 

Martin  (4  for  6,  79  yards) 
showed  he  belongs  behind

Alter  the  season  opener  ( a 
2S-^  loss  lo  Canton  Hieh 


.School)  on  Sept.  7,  Quincy 
had  a  week  off  before  their 
Atlantic  Coast  League 
opener,  and  according  to 
then  coach,  the  team  re- 
sponded to  the  extra  week  o{ 
practice. 

"We  were  significantly 
better  in  this  game  than  we 
were  in  the  openei  Ihe  ex-

With  the  w  in.  Quincy 
started  otY  the  .ACL  pt>itioii 
o\  Its  schedule  with  a  bang. 
.And  It  gives  the  Presidents 
some  momentum  entering 
this  week's  eanie  ae.unst  a 


tough  Plymouth  North 
squad. 

"We  have  another  big 
game  this  weekend  and  it 
helps  to  have  some  confi-

stated.  "The  next  two  weeks 
(against  Plymouth  North  and 
Whitman-Hanson)  are  at

If  the\  can  keep  it  going,

ils look  the  ball  all  the  way 
down  inside  the  North 
Quincy  five-yard  line  trailing 
just  13-2.  but  could  not 
punch  in  what  would  have 
been  a  huge  touchdown.  On 
fourth-and-goal  from  the 
two.  Randolph's  Ricky 
Igbani  went  left  on  a  fake 
pitch  to  the  right,  but  was 
stopped  just  short  of  the  goal 


line.  It  was  close,  but  NQ 
held  its  ground  and  entered 
the  locker  room  with  a  13-2 
lead. 

The  Raiders  would  pile  it 
on  in  the  second  half  mak- 
ing a  close  game  a  blowout, 
.lunior  Joe  Vialpando  scored 
on  a  34-yard  run,  and  Cahill 
scored  twice  in  the  final  two 
quarters  to  account  for  the  34 
points  North  Quincy  put  on 
the  scoreboard.  But  with 
their  second  victory  in  as 
many  games,  Connor  knows 
he  needs  to  keep  his  team  on 
the  level  because  they  now 
enter  the  meat  of  their  Atlan- 
tic Coast  League  schedule 
and  need  to  gel  ready  to  face 
a  tough  Falmouth  team  on 
Fndav  night  al  Veterans  Me-

"Whatever  the  score  is,  a 


win  is  a  win  and  we  are  ob- 
viously \ ery  happ\  with  hav- 
ing at  that  at  North  Quincy.  1

right  now,  but  we  have  a  lot

(againsi  Randolph),  but  we 
could  have  been  better.  We 
are  the  kind  of  team  that  can 
go  anywhere  right  now;  we 
can  go  in  any  direction. 
These  kids  are  good  athletes, 
but  they  can  do  even  more. 
They  can  be  something  spe- 
cial." 

At  2-1.  the  Red  Raiders 
may  not  be  where  they  want 
lo  be,  but  it  sure  beats  the 
alternative.

got  off  to  a  fast  start  againsi 
the  perennial  league 
powerhouse  and  the  score 
was  0-0  until  the  41'  minute 
of  play. 

Al  that  point,  a  Marshfield 
midfielder  sent  a  hard  right  to 
left  shot  across  the  face  of  the 
NQ  goal.  Louis  made  a 
terrific,  diving  stop,  but  he 
could  not  control  the  rebound. 
The  loose  ball  was  put  away 
by  a  Ram  forward  to  give 
Marshfield  a  1-0  lead.  The 
defensive  tandem  of  Louis 


and  Richards  slopped  a 
Marshfield  breakaway  right 
before  the  halftime  whistle 
to  keep  the  score  1  -0  at  the 
break. 

North  Quincy  came  out 
flat  in  the  second  half  and 
Marshfield  took  advantage 
with  several  point  blank  shots 
on  Louis.  In  the  65'"  minute, 
a  low  header  off  of  a  comer 
kick  forced  another  diving 
save  by  Louis,  but  the 
rebound  was  put  into  the  back 
of  the  net  for  a  2-0  Ram  lead. 
Alex  Brean  and  Ryan  Keaney 
both  played  well  on  defense 
for  the  Raiders.

Denise  (Marnell) 

Gurshin,  a  Quincy  native,  is 
walking  and  fundraising  for 
the  American  Liver 
Foundation.  Her  husband 
was  in  need  of  a  liver 
transplant  after  more  than  a 
decade  since  his  diagnosis 
with  PSC  (Primary 
Schlerosing  Cholangitis),  In 
March  2005,  the  surgeons  at 
Tufts-New  England  Medical 
Center  transplanted  part  of 
Denise' shver  to  her  husband 
Chris. 

Thanks  to  their  efforts, 
Denise  and  Chris  celebrate 
two  anni  versaries  every  year, 
their  wedding  and  transplant. 
The  advances  in  liver 
medicine  and  transplantation 
gave  Chris  and  Denise  a 
second  chance  on  life. 

A  little  over  a  year  after 
their     surgery,     Denise 


completed  the  2006  Boston 
Marathon  with  the  Run  for 
Research,  the  American 
Liver  Foundation  team.  This 
year,  Denise  and  Chris  are 
walking  in  their  second 
"Football  Walk  for  Liver 
Wellness."  They  walk  and 
fundraise  to  support  the 
American  Liver  Foundation 
(ALF)  in  achieving  their 
goals  to  1 .)  Raise  awareness 
of  the  prevalence  of  liver 
disease,  2.)  Reach  out  to 
people  with  liver  disease,  3.) 
Educate  the  public  about  the 
liver  and  its  importance,  4,) 
Promote  liver  wellness,  and 
5,)  Raise  funds  for  critically 
needed  liver  disease  research 
and  education. 

They  hope  others  will 
come  out  to  support  the  ALF 
goals  on  Sept.  30, 

The  American  Liver 
Foundation  welcomes 
patients,  organ  donors, 
family  members,  friends  and 
volunteers  to  participate  in 
the  "Football  Walk  for  Liver 
Wellness,"  For  more

sense  of  loss  around  the  holi-

of  loss,  particularly  with 
people  who  are  going 
through  a  grieving  process, 
is  part  of  the  healing  process.

IM)N  Mi(  AKI  H> 
Manaciiifi  Dirti'titr 


Sinit  tht  earliest  limes  anger  has  been  a 
i«»ncern  to  religious  people.  Primitive  ritu- 
als frequently  centered  around  the  prob- 
lems caused  \>\  the  anger  of  people  or  of  the 
gods,  \nger  separated  Lsau  and  Jacob. 
Moses,  in  anger,  smashed  the  tablets  con- 
taining the  I^M .  Saul  threw  a  spear  at  I)av  id. 
And  M»  on. 

In  our  own  time  we  continue  to  be 
concerned  with  anger  because,  as  in  Bibli- 
cal times,  there  is  still  a  lot  of  anger  felt  and 
expreSksed.  Children  angrj  a(  parents;  parents  angrv  at  children: 
anger  in  the  home:  anger  in  the  privacv  of  our  own  thoughts.  Politi- 
cians angrv  at  one  another. 

The  Biblical  attitude  toward  anger  is  quite  realistic.  On  on*  hand, 
anger  is  recognized  as  potentiallv  destruiiive.  Admonitions  directed 
toward  the  control  of  anger  are  recorded:  as  examples.  "A  soft  answer 
turns  awav  w  rath"  (Proverbs  15: 1 1  and  ". . .  do  not  let  the  sun  go  down 
on  >our  anger"  iFphesians  4:26 1.  On  the  other  hand,  anger  is  recog- 
nized as  a  normal  human  emotion:  "be  angrv  but  do  not  sin  ( Kphesians 
4:26).  and  even  at  times  as  a  divine  attribute:  ". . .  God's  wrath  has 
come  upon  tbem  at  last!"  ( I  lliessaionians  2: 16 1.  God  is.  howe\ er.  also 
pictured  repeatediv  as  being  "slow  to  anger."  and  Christians  are 
encourafiied  to  avoid  angering  either  (iod  or  other  people:  "Fathers, 
do  not  provoke  your  children  to  anger. . .  "  (Kphesians  6:4). 

Couldn't  it  be  said  that  a  better  life  is  in  store  when  these  Biblical 
expressions  are  understood  and  practiced?  . . .

Salomes 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  This  IS  a  good  time  for  the 
usually  outspoken  Lamb  to 
be  a  bit  more  discreet.  You 
still  can  get  your  point 
across,  but  do  it  in  a  way  less 
likely  to  turn  off  a  potential 
supporter. 

TALTIUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Good  news:  .\ll  that  hard 
work  you  put  in  is  l?eginning 
to  pay  off.  But  you  need  to 
watch  that  tendency  to  insist 
on  doing  things  your  way  or 
no  way.  Be  a  bit  more  flexi- 
ble. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  You  might  want  to  delay 
making  a  decision  on  the 
future  of  a  long-standing 
relationship  until  you  check 
out  some  heretofore  hidden 
details  that  are  just  now 
beginning  to  emerge. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Your  reluctance  to  com- 
promise on  an  imp>ortant 
issue  could  backfire  without 
more  facts  to  support  your 
position.  Weigh  your  options 
carefully  before  making  your 
next  move. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22; 
This  is  a  good  time  for  ambi- 
tious Leos  or  Leonas  to  shift 
from  planning  their  next 
move  to  actually  doing  it. 
Your  communication  skills 
help  {jcrsuade  others  to  join 
you. 

VraCO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Relationships  — 
personal  or  professional  — 
present  new  challenges.  Be 
careful  not  to  let  a  sudden 
surge  of  stubbornness  influ- 
ence how  you  choose  to  deal 
with  them. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  21)  'N'ou  might  need 
more  facis  before  you  can 
decide  on  a  possible  career 
change.  But  you  should  have 
no  problem  making  a  deci- 
sion about  an  important  per- 
sonal matter 

SCORPIO  (Ociober  23  to 
November  21)  You're 
respected  by  most  people  for 
your  direct,  no-nonsense 
approach  to  the  issues.  But  be 
careful  you  don't  replace 
honest  skepticism  with  sting- 
ing sarcasm. 

SAGITTARIL'S  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21)  A 
newly  emerging  situation 
could  require  a  good  deal  of 
attention  and  some  difficult 
decision-making.  However, 
close  friends  will  help  you 
see  it  through. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Family 
matters  need  attention. 
Check  things  out  carefully. 
There  still  might  be  unre- 
solved tensions  that  could 
hinder  your  efforts  to  repair 
damaged  relationships. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  Of  course  you 
deserve  to  indulge  yourself  in 
something  special.  But  for 
now,  tuck  that  bit  of  mad 
money  away.  You'll  need  it  to 
help  with  a  looming  cash 
cnmch. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  A  temporary  set- 
back in  your  financial  situa- 
tion is  eased  by  changing 
some  of  your  plans.  You'll  be 
able  to  ride  it  out  quite  well 
until  the  tide  turns  back  in 
your  favor. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
have  a  gift  for  understanding 
people's  needs.  You  have  a 
low  tolerance  for  those  who 
act  without  concern  for  oth- 
ers.

Funeral  Saturday  At  St.  John 's  Church 

Quincy  Soldier's  Family 

Wants  To  Know  How 
She  Died  In  Afghanistan 


By  TOM  HENSH AW 

A  funeral  Mass  tor  Cpl. 
Ciara  M.  Durkin.  30.  o\' 
Houghs  Neck,  an  Army  Na- 
tional Ciuardswonian  v\  ho 
died  under  mysterious  cir- 
cumstances in  Afghanistan, 
will  be  celebrated  Saturda\, 
Oct.  6,  at  10  a.m.  in  St.  John 
the  Baptist  Church  in 
Quincy. 

Visiting  hours  will  be  Fri- 
day, Oct.  5,  from  4  to  ^  p.m., 
at  the  Dennis  Sweeney  Fu- 
neral Home.  74  Elm  St.,  with 
burial  at  a  later  date  m  Ar- 
lington National  Cemetery  in 
Virginia. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
ordered  flags  in  Qumcy  to  fly 
at  half  staff  in  Cpl.  Durkin's 
memory  and  the  City  Coun- 
cil Monday  night  offered  a 
moment  of  silence  for  the 
Irish-bom  Quincy  girl  who 
died  in  the  service  of  her 
adopted  country. 


CPL.  CIARADl  Rkl.N 

Ward  1  City  Councillor 
Leo  Kelly  called  her  death  "a 
great  loss  to  her  family  and 
to  the  Houghs  Neck  commu- 
nity. Ciara  was  bom  in  Ire- 
land and  she  leaves  the  older 
sisters,  three  brothers  and  her 
mom.  It  is  a  tremendous  loss 
for  the  city  of  Quincy." 

Cpl.  Durkin  leaves  her 
mother.  Angela  (Cloherty). 
sisters  Maura  and  Diedre 
Durkin  and  Fiona  Canavan. 
all  of  Quincy;  Aine  Durkin 
of  County  Donegal;  and  An- 
gela Conneely  of  County 
Galwav.  Ireland. 


.Also  brothers.  Pierce

Durkin  of  Long  Island.  N  Z^'. 
and  Owen  Durkin  of  Count) 
Cialv\a>,  Ireland.  Their  fa- 
ther. Tom.  died  in  l'->8h  w  hen 
Ciara  was  *-V 

Meanwhile,  details  were 
sketchy  in  the  death  o\  Cpl 
Durkin,  an.-\nn>  pa\roll  spe- 
cialist assigned  to  Bagram 
Air  Base.  Afghanistan, 
whose  body  was  found,  shot 
once  in  the  head,  near  a 
church  Sept.  28. 

At  first,  the  Massachu- 
setts Army  .National  Guard 
said  she  was  killed  in  action 
but  later  the  Defense  Depart- 
ment changed  that  to  say  she 
died  in  a  "non-coinbat  re- 
lated incident." 

The  National  Guard  then 
clarified  its  original  an- 
nouncement to  say  that 
"killed  m  action"  simply 
meant  she  died  while  de-

Councillors  Take 

Issue  With  Mayor 

On  State  Health 

Insurance  Status 


Bv  LALRA  GRIFFIN 

Six  City  Councillurs 
Mondav  sharplv  critici/cd 
.Mayor  William  Phelan  for 
using  the  city"s  employees' 
uciilh  insurance  as  a 
■■political  soundbite""  and 
blaming  the  City  Council, 
instead  oi  himself,  for  not 
joining  the  state  plan. 

The  councillors 

repeatedly  lashed  out  at 
Phelan  for  what  the\  called 
his  failure  to  properly  prepare 
and  educate  cit\  employees 
regarding  the  state  health 
insurance  program  so  that 
they  would  be  ready  for  the 
stale's  October  deadline. 

■■We"  ve  had  nothing  to  do 
with  this,"  said  Ward  2 
Councillor  Daniel  Raymondi 
w  ho  said  that  Phelan  publicly 
blamed  the  Cit\  Council  tor 
"not  getting  something 
done  '" 


Raymondi  said  that 
Phelan  told  \  icwersonajocal 
television  pn^gram  to  call  cit\ 
councillors  and  ■"tell  them  to 
change  their  vote."" 

Ray  mondi  said  that  he  and 
his  fellow  councillors  would 
be  happy  to  vole  to  loin  the 
state  health  insurance  plan 
once  Phelan  and  the  citv 
employees  agree  to  join  and 
meet  the  state  requirements. 

Cit\  Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  said  the  Cit\ 
Council  was  ■■ynjustifiablv 
castigated  by  the  mayor."" 

Councillors  repeatedly 
said  that  they  have  not 
opposed  the  state  plan  which 
Phelan  has  said  cc>uld  save 
the  city  S6  to  SS  million  a 
year  and  emplovecs  another 
nullum  dollars. 

■■If  anybody  has  to  be 
blamed.  u"s  him,"'  said  Ward 
4  Councillor  Ja\  Davis  who 


described  his  iiwii  personal 
efforts  at  the  Slate  House 
where  he  worked  to  get  an 
extension  ot  the  legislature"s 
Oct.  1  deadline  on  the  health 
insurance  decision 

Uavis  was  particularly 
stung  bv  the  mayor's 
criticism  because  he  has 
worked  hard  tor  the  health 
bill's  passage  and  for  a 
Beac(^n  Hill  extension  of  the 
deadline 

">'iiu  can  iMilv  kick  a  dog 
sii  nun>  times,  ■'  >aid  Davis 
who  added  that  it  was 
■■ridiculous  that  he  would 
think  of  blaming  the  council. 
They  have  one  person  to 
blame.  That's  him." 

.As  for  Using  the  health 
insurance  issue  as  a  political 
tool,  Davis  said  that  voters 
■■don't  buy  into  finger- 
p*Mnting"

In  Post  Island  Controversy 


Residents  Want  Cease-Fire^  Dog  Law  Enforcement 


B)  LAURA  (;RIFFIN 

Sditic  60  residents 
atlenilinj:  last  week's 
"NeighboihoocI  I  irst" 
meeting  in  Adams  Shore 
appeared  equally  divided 
between  those  who  want  a 
cease  lire  and  peace  in  their 
neighborhood  and  those  who 


want  stronger  enlorcemeni 
of  dog  regulations  in  Adams 
Shore  and  through-out  the 
city. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
vVho  hosted  the  meeling  at 
Adams  Shore  I  .ibiai")  ojUMied 
by  saying,  "Nobody  wants  to 
have  a  dog  running  loose  or 


defecating  on  the  beach." 
However,  Phelan  stopped 
short  of  promising  tougher 
enforcement  of  leash  and 
pick-up  laws. 

Later  in  the   meeting, 
Phelan  reprimanded 

Shellfish  Warden  Andrew 
Ayers  after  he  described

seeing  eight  dogs  running 
loose  on  the  nearby  niudtlats. 
Ayers  said  he  was  in  the 
area  with  two  Marine 
biologists  to  check  on  the 
newly  seeded  clamflats, 
"There  were  eight  dogs 
running  wild.  Their  owners 
were  standing  by  the  wal Is. . . . 

Avers'  companions  asked 
whether  there  was  a  leash 
law  in  Quincy.  As  soon  as 
Avers  described  the  incident, 
Phelan  chided  him  for  not 
using  his  cell  phone  to  call 
lor  enforcement. 

All  but  two  or  three 
speakers  last  week  supported 
enforcement  of  laws  on  dog 
control,  but  decried  the 
publicity  methods  that,  they 
said,  have  embarrassed  a 
wonderful  neighborhood. 

"The  problem  is  how  you 
went  about  it,"  said  one 
resident  directing  her 
comments  to  Diane 
McGunigle. 

McGunigle  and  her 
husband.  Police  Officer 
Joseph  McGunigle,  have 
spearheaded  the  campaign  to 
improve  enforcement  of  dog 
regulations  in  the  Post  Island 
Road  area  where  they  said 
they  finally  found  their 
"dream  house." 

More  than  two  dozen 
participants,  including  Jack 
and  Judy  Barry,  wore  t-shirts 
supplied  by  Diane 
McGunigle.  They  were 
designed  with  an  unleashed 
dog  defecating  and  no  owner 


in  sight.  Several  persons 
were  from  other  areas  of 
Quincy. 

Diane  McGunigle  said 
they  experienced  dangerous 
episodes  with  dogs,  as  did 
otherresidents.  She  said  that, 
on  arrival,  they  found  the 
neighborhood  littered  with 
dog  droppings  and  tried 
futilely  to  contact  the  proper 
authorities. 

McGunigle  said  that  one 
video  taken  by  her  husband 
shows  an  elderly  woman 
screaming  for  help  as  a  large 
unleashed  dog  approach  the 
woman  and  her  tiny  lapdog. 

Several  speakers  last  week 
complained  that  the  Post 
Island  Road  neighborhood 
and  Quincy  has  been  unfairly 
depicted  in  news  articles 
because  of  the  McGunigle 
campaign. 

At  last  week's  meeting, 
Phelan  introduced  Lt.  Brian 
Tobin  who  said  there  had 
been  successful  efforts  in 
other  neighborhoods  to  clean 
up  and  harness  the  dog 
situation.  Tobin  described 
success  when  neighbors  and 
the  police  worked  together 
in  the  Curlew  Road 
neighborhood.  He  suggested 
that  might  work  in  the  Post 
Island  Road  neighborhood. 

Tobin  said  that,  "With 
cool  heads,  it  does  work." 

After  the  meeting, 
McGunigle  said  she  got  no 
support  when  she  contacted 
Tobin,  the  mayor,  the  city's 
Dog  Officers  and  other

The  few  speakers  at  the 
mayor's  meetings  who  said 
the\  don't  want  enforcement 
described  running  their  dogs 
free  on  the  beaches  for 
decades  as  a  way  of  life. 

Dan  McGuire  said  that  the 
dogs  described  were  loose 
only  on  a  private  beach.  He 
also  said  he'd  been  cited  with 
a  $100  ticket  when  his 
girlfriend's  dog  was  in  New 
Jersey. 

After  the  ineeting,  Diane 
McGunigle  said  that  state  law 
does  not  allow  owners  to 
leave  dog  droppings  on  a 
public  or  private  beach. 

"We've  never  received 
one  phone  call  to  put  it  on  the 
agenda,"  said  Mike  Cotter  of 
the  local  community  group. 
He  added,  "We  totally 
support  that  issue,  but  not  the 
tactics." 

Tammy  Quinlan  who 
works  at  the  North  Quincy 
Post  Office  said  there  is  a 
bigger  issue  and  described 
problems  on  Palmer  Street, 
day  and  night. 

Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  recently  suspended 
Officer  McGunigle  for  five 
days.  McGunigle  has  said 
that  Crowley  ordered  him  to 
stop  writing  dog  citations. 

The  suspension  was 
appealed  by  the  patrolman's 
union  and  is  now  on  a  third 
level  of  review. 

Asked  about  the 
suspension,  Phelan  told  the 
community  meeting  last 
week  that  the  suspension  was 
not  ordered  because  of 
McGunigle's  citations. 

Crowley  has  said  the 
suspension  was  ordered 
because  of  McGunigle's 
"abuse  of  authority." 

After  the  discussion, 
Phelan  invited  the 
participants  to  enjoy  a 
barbecue  on  the  library  patio. 

For  the  McGunigles,  the 
meeting  appeared  to  have 
created  even  more  problems 
as  a  flier  was  posted  on 
Houghs  Neck  telephone 
poles  early  this  week,  calling 
McGunigle  and  his  wife 
"nasty  neighbors."

Council  Plans  November 
Decision  On  Wind 
Power  Regulations 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Wind  power  is  here  to  stay 
and  Quincy  best  be  prepared, 
speakers  told  City 
Councillors  Monday  at  a 
public  Hearing  on  a  proposed 
by-law  on  wind  facilities. 

"We  need  wind  power  in 
Quincy,"  former  City 
Councillor  Larry  Chretien 
said,  but  suggested  that  the 
proposed  bylaw  needs 
considerable  tweaking  to 
address  height,  setbacks, 
noise  and  visual  impacts. 

"There's  growing 

enthusiasm  for  wind  power 
in  Massachusetts,"  said 
Chretien,  adding,  "Wind 
power  in  Quincy  would  be  a 
good  thing. 

"You  must  have  a  process 
so  that  it  is  regulated  and 
controlled,"  Chretien  said, 
adding,  "I  don't  think  it 
would  take  more  than  a  week 
or  two  (to  adjust  the  proposed 
bylaw)." 

Chretien,  executive 
director  of  Mass  Energy,  a 
non-profit  organization, 
volunteered  to  help  draft  a 
more  comprehensive  by-law 


for  the  city  as  did  Atty. 
Benjamin  N.  Spruill,  a  project 
developer  at  Patriot 
Renewables,  LLC. 

Patriot  Renewables  is 
owned  by  Jay  Cashman  who 
applied  for  a  permit  for  a 
wind  turbine  facility  in 
Quincy.  Cashman  hopes  to 
erect  one  at  Fore  River 
Shipyard. 

"We'll  want  to  work  with 
the  City  of  Quincy,"  said 
Spruill  who  noted  that  his 
firm  builds  private  wind 
facilities  as  well  as  state 
facilities,  including  one  at 
Massachusetts  Maritime 
Academy  at  Buzzards  Bay, 
Cape  Cod. 

Spruill  also  noted  that  the 
new  Quincy  High  School  will 
have  a  windmill  as  a  green 
environmental  project. 

Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  sought  the  public 
hearing  after  learning  of 
Cashman' s  application,m  the 
first  in  the  city.  Raymondi 
said  he  wanted  to  put  a  rough 
draft  out  for  review. 

Chretien  and  Spruill  were 
the  only  speakers  at  the  public

"They  thought  that  they 
could  build  this  as  a  matter  of 
right,"  Raymondi  said, 
adding,  "Our  zoning 
ordinances  are  silent  in  this 
particular  area.  It  is  my 
intention  to  get  something 
done  before  the  end  of  the 
year." 

Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  told  the  council  that 
wind  facilities  are  also  being 
studied  for  his  area. 

"For  over  a  year,  P.  J. 
Foley  has  been  gathering 
material,  taking  wind  counts 
and  speeds.  Something  has 
been  going  on  in  the  city  for 
over  a  year."  Kelly  said. 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  volunteered  to 
work  with  Raymondi,  Spruill 
and  Chretien  on  a 
comprehensive  bylaw  that  is 
expected  to  be  reviewed  on 
Oct.  15  and  passed  by  late 
November. 

Written  comments  will  be 
accepted  until  October  15. 
Persons  interested  in 
discussing  the  wind  facility 
issue  may  call  Raymondi, 
Coughlin,  Spruill  or 
Chretien. 


With  Jim  Cooke 

John  Quincy  Adams 

Returning  To  Russia 

200  Years  Later 


By  TOM  HKNSHAW 

John  Quincy  Adams  is 
returning  to  St.  Petersburg 
this  month,  the  land  of  the 
czar  where  he  served  as  the 
first  recognized  American 
minister  to  Russia  nearly  2(K) 
years  ago. 

He'll  go  back  in  the  per- 
son of  Jim  Cooke,  the 
Quincy  actor-writer-histo- 
rian, who  travels  the  nation 
and  now  the  world  imperson- 
ating  prominent  persons 
from  the  past. 

The  occasion  is  the  200th 
anniversary  of  the  establish- 
ment in  1809  of  diplomatic 
relations  between  the  20- 
some-year-old  United  States 
and  centuries-old  Czarist 
Russia. 

Cooke  will  leave  Satur- 
day, Oct.  1 3,  for  what  is  now 
the  Federal  Republic  of  Rus- 
sia where  he'll  spend  10  days 
reflecting  on  his  (Adams') 
diplomatic  years  with  Czar 
Alexander  1. 

"This  bicentennial  is 
taken  much  more  seriously 
in  Russia  than  it  is  in  the 
United  States,"  said  Cooke, 


JIM  COOKE 

as 

JOHN  QUINCY  ADAMS 

who  is  making  the  trip  at  the 
behest  and  expense  of  the 
State  Department. 

He'll  be  in  early  1 9th  cen- 
tury costume  as  the  sixth 
president  of  the  United 
States  seven  or  eight  times  in 
four  cities,  Yekaterinburg, 
Chelyabinsk,  Moscow  and 
St.  Petersburg. 

While  some  of  Cooke's 
performances  will  be  trans- 
lated into  Russian  for  his  au- 


diences, many  of  them, 
chictly  students,  speak  pretty 
good  finglish. 

Presentations  in  Moscow 
are  scheduled  at  the 
Lomonosov  School  (a  high 
school),  the  Russian  State 
University  and  the  Slavic- 
Anglo-American  School 
"Marina"  (another  high 
school). 

There  will  be  a  20-25 
minute  program  during 
which  he  will  explain  John 
Quincy's  unprecedented  re- 
lationship with  the  c/ar  in  his 
years  ( 1 809- 1 8 1 4)  as  minis- 
ter. 

"He  had  been  there  before 
in  1782  at  the  age  of  i  3  as  a 
translator  for  Francis  Dana, 
the  American  minister  who 
was  not  recognized  by  the 
Russians,"  said  Cooke.  "He 
spoke  French  and  French 
was  the  language  of  the  Rus- 
sian court. 

"Cathenne  the  Great  was 
the  czanna  and  she  had  no 
reason  to  recognize  the 
United  States.  Democracy 
was  a  challenge  to  her  throne

Election  Results  -  8  Days  Later 


SHEA 


City  Clerk  Joseph  Shea  would  like  to  have  the  Nov. 
6  city  election  results  all  wrapped  up  nice  and  early. 
Which  he  has  done  the  pa.st  few  years. 
If  he  has  his  way,  you'll  know  by  9:30  p.m. -maybe 
sooner-if  Mayor  William  Phelan  has  a 
fourth  term  or  the  city  has  a  new  mayor 
named  Tom  Koch. 

That's  only  an  hour  and  a  half  or  so 

after  the  city's  30  polling  places  closed. 

Quincy' s  present  opt-scan  voting 

system  and  computers  make  voting 

and  counting  pretty  much  a  breeze. 

A  big  improvement  over  the  old  days  of  counting 

paper  ballots  by  hand  when  there  always  seemed  to  be 

a  precinct  or  two  straggling  in  the  following  morning. 

And  a  far,  far  cry  from  Quincy 's  Plan  E  days  when 

it  could  take  all  week  to  find  out  who  was  elected. 

Quincy  operated  under  Plan  E  from  1950  to  1957 
w  ith  a  city  manager  elected  by  the  city  council  as  chief 
executive.  The  mayor  was  actually  a  city  councillor 
elected  by  his  colleagues.  He  presided  over  council 
meetings  and  was  the  city  greeter  and  ceremonial  head. 
It  was  a  stormy  political  marriage  with  Plan  E 
advocates  and  Plan  A  supporters  feuding  for  seven 
years. 

Plan  E  came  in  on  a  referendum  and  went  out  the 
same  way. 

Instead  of  today's  nine  councillors  (six  wards,  three 
at-large)  there  were  only  seven,  all  elected  at-large. 
And  six  school  committee  members. 

The  method  of  voting  was  by  proportional 

representation  known  as  PR  and  was  pretty  complicated. 

In  the  first  Plan  E  election  in  November  1949  there 

were-get  this-59  candidates  for  the  seven  council  seats 

and  15  for  the  six  on  the  school  committee. 

Under  the  PR  method,  voters  made  their  selections 
by  number.  They  could,  if  they  wanted  vote  for  all  59 
council  candidates  and  all  15  school  committee 
candidates  by  numbering  their  preferences  1  to  59  and 
I  to  15. 

If  their  first  choice  candidates  didn't  make  it,  they 
could  keep  their  second  choice  in  the  running. 

In  that  first  election,  a  quota  to  win  was  set  at  3,612 
first  choice  votes. 

The  vote  counting  started  the 
following  morning. 

Former  Mayor  Thomas  Burgin  was 
the  only  one  elected  on  the  first  count. 
He  had  5,934  votes-2,322  more  first 
choice  then  needed  to  meet  the  winning 
quota. 

Those  2,322  votes  then  went  into  a 
lottery  and  allotted  to  candidates  who  were  the  voters' 
second  choice. 

Amelio  Delia 
Chiesa  and  Edna 
Austin.  first 
woman  councillor, 
were  declared  the 
winners  on  the  46* 
count  and  Alfred 
Helfrich  on  the  47'^ 

Three  who  didn't  make  the  quota  were  declared 
winners  as  having  the  next  highest  vote:  Carl  Anderson 
(3,531),  Frank  Orcutt  (3,473)  and  David  Crowley 
(3,167). 


CATALANO 


BURGIN 


DELLA 
CHIESA 


AUSTIN 


All  of  that  took  six  days  after  the  election. 
But  that  wasn't  the  end. 

The  school  committee  counting  was  then  begun  and 
took  two  more  days  to  complete.  Elected  in  the  order  of 
their  votes  were: 

Dominic  Chiminello,  William  Anderson,  Dennis 
Ryan,  A.  Wendell  Clark,  Annie  B.  Forsyth  and  Ethel 
Wiley. 

When  Quincy  returned  to  Plan  A  in  1957,  Delia 
Chiesa  was  elected  mayor,  defeating  Laurence  Curtin 
who  played  a  major  role  in  bringing  Plan  A  back. 
Those  results  were  known  that  election  night. 
There  must  have  been  some  smiles  in  the  Election 
Department  among  those  who  remembered  that  Plan  E 
eight-day  count. 

G 
JOE  CATALANO,  a  popular  voice  at  WJDA  for  20 
years,  is  back  behind  a  radio  mike  on  the  Cape. 

He  has  joined  Cape  Cod 
Broadcasting  Company's  WQRC 
(99.9  FM)  and  WOCN  (104.7  FM) 
anchoring  news  and  covering  local 
meetings  and  other  community  events. 
Something  he  did  so  well  at  WJDA 
before  the  station  was  sold  and  went 
off  the  air  on  April  30,  2006. 
Joe  was  public  relations  director  for  the  Jack  Conway 
Real  Estate  Company  for  the  past  year  and  a  half,  a  job 
he  enjoyed,  but  broadcasting  is  his  first  love.  Joe,  who 
was  program  director  and  morning  host  at  WJDA's 
end,  muses: 

"I  also  served  as  news  director,  conducted  hundreds 
of  Party  Line  interviews,  produced  commercials, 
covered  elections,  shoveled  snow  from  the  satellite  dish 
on  the  roof  and  took  out  the  trash.  At  a  small  station  you 
get  to  do  it  all." 

Sounds  a  little  bit  like  a  weekly  community 
newspaper. 

All  the  best,  Joe. 

You  and  the  WJDA  gang  are  missed.

NOW  THAT  Jenna  Bush  is  engaged  many  are 
wondering:  will  she  be  married  in  the  WTiite  House? 

An  item  in  a  recent  issue  of  Parade  Magazine  said 
nine  children  of  presidents  took  their 
vows  in  the  White  House. 

Including,  it  indicated,  sixth 
President  John  Quincy  Adams,  son  of 
second  President  John  Adams.  The 
wedding  year,  it  said,  was  1828. 

"Not  so,"  says  Arthur  Ducharme, 
historian  at  United  First  Parish  Church 
where  the  two  presidents  and  their 
wives,  Abigail  and  Louisa  Catherine 
are  entombed. 

"John  Quincy  Adams  and  Louisa  Catherine  were 
married  July  26, 1 797  at  All  Hallows  Church  next  to  the 
Tower  of  London  in  England." 

In  case  you're  interested.  Parade  lists  eight  daughters 
of  Presidents  as  being  White  House  brides: 

Maria  Monroe  ( 1 820),  Elizabeth  Tyler  ( 1 842),  Nellie 
Grant  ( 1 874),  Alice  Roosevelt  ( 1 906),  Jessie  and  Eleanor 
Wilson  (1913  and  1914),  Lynda  Bird  Johnson  (1967) 
and  Tricia  Nixon  (1971). 

But  John  Quincy  was  definitely  not  a  White  House 
groom.

The  Other  Side  Of  The  Post  Island  Dog  Issue 


Readers  of  The  Sun  front 
page  report  on  Sept.  27, 
"Post  Island  Dog  Issue  Be- 
ing Brought  To  Mayor's 
Meeting  Tonight"  are  likely 
to  come  away  with  an  in- 
complete picture  of  the  dis- 
pute and  mistaken  conclu- 
sions about  our  neighbor- 
hood. 

Herewith,  an  abbrevia- 
tion, due  to  space  consider- 
ation of  the  rest  of  the  story. 
Officer  McGunigle  and  wife, 
Dianne,  received  a  hearty 
welcome  to  Post  Island  at  our 
annual  association  Christmas 
party  in  our  home  in  Decem- 
ber 2006.  On  Sept.  1 3  of  this 
year,  fully  30  neighbors  gath- 
ered in  that  same  home  shar- 
ing a  litany  of  confrontations 
and  concerns  related  to  the 
McGunigles.  What  hap- 
pened in  that  short  interim? 

There  was  an  initial  un- 
fortunate incident  with  a 
neighbor's  dog,  which  even- 
tually moved  from  a  private 
resolution  to  an  episode  on 
"The  People's  Court,"  the 
case  being  found  against  the 
McGunigles.  Please  watch 


the  segment;  the  embarrass- 
ing reprimand  given  by  the 
judge  especially  to  the  plain- 
tiffs, perhaps  fueled  the 
events  to  come. 

Clearly  the  irresponsibil- 
ity of  some  dog  owners  has 
been  and  continues  to  be  an 
issue  in  our  neighborhood 
and  throughout  the  city. 
Residents  are  of  course  obli- 
gated to  supervise  and  clean 
up  after  their  dogs.  However, 
for  the  record,  dog  feces  are 
not  "everywhere"  as  the 
McGunigles  contend,  on  the 
beach  or  properties  of  Post 
Island  where  families  swim, 
boat  and  recreate,  and  the 
neighborhood  was  quite  safe 
and  clean  long  before  the 
McGunigles  arrived  less 
than  a  year  ago.  The  Post  Is- 
land Beach  Association,  in 
existence  for  1 10  years,  con- 
tinually encourages  dog 
owners/walkers  to  be  re- 
sponsible and  respectful  of 
the  rights  of  all. 

At  issue  here  is  the  ex- 
tremely aggressive  and  in- 
timidating campaign  Officer 
McGunigle  pursued  of  writ- 


ing citations  to  errant  dog 
owners,  within  the  neighbor- 
hood, which  is  outside  his 
assigned  patrol  area.  This  is 
the  Animal  Control  Officer's 
duty  citywide;  related  re- 
sources and  effectiveness  are 
another  issue. 

When  ordered  to  cease  by 
his  superiors.  Officer 
McGunigle  persisted  in  writ- 
ing citations  and  was  sus- 
pended as  a  result.  Along  the 
way.  Officer  McGunigle  has 
drawn  the  scrutiny  of  the 
State  Police  and  Social  Ser- 
vices on  innocent  residents 
with  whom  he  has  had  dis- 
agreements, launched  a  se- 
ries of  frivolous,  annoying 
property  and  legal  disputes, 
even  calling  for  members  of 
the  Association  (really  a 
community  "sunshine"  club) 
to  be  expelled  on  a  techni- 
cality! Numerous  residents 
have  expressed  their  outrage, 
and  well-founded  anxiety 
about  this  public  .servant  to 
the  Police  Chief  and  Mayor. 

The  McGunigles'  re- 
sponse to  this?  A  publicity 


campaign  declaring  that  he  is 
a  blameless  persecuted  Of- 
ficer, "just  doing  his  job." 
Certainly  "his  job"  (or  his 
wife's  job)  is  not  walking  our 
streets  and  beaches  in  and 
out  of  uniform  to  affront  and 
intimidate  everyone  from 
children  to  seniors  whom  do 
not  fit  his  agenda  with  his 
methods. 

The  centennial  memorial 
stone  on  the  Post  Island  wa- 
terfront is  inscribed,  "In 
gratitude  to  all  those  who 
have  made  our  neighborhood 
this  beautiful  and  friendly 
home."  According  to  the 
McGunigles,  they  have  "just 
begun  to  fight."  We  suggest 
that  Officer  McGunigle 
might  be  retrained  as  a  more 
friendly  "peace  officer" 
rather  than  the  severe  "law 
enforcer"  and  "fighter"  he 
has  been,  and  that  the  couple 
might  realize  their  "dream 
home"  if  they  stopped  creat- 
ing nightmares  for  their 
neighbors.

Praises  Mayor  Phelan's  Open  Space  Record 


Open  space  and  overde- 
velopment are  critical  issues 
here  in  Quincy,  and  I  have 
worked  hard  in  our  city  to 
protect  and  improve  our  en- 
vironment. 

I  am  proud  to  serve  on 
Mayor  Phelan's  Open  Space 
Committee,  Planning  Board, 
Community  Preservation 
Committee,  Wind  Energy 
Research  Committee,  the 
Beaches  Commission  and 
the  newly  formed  Recycling 
and  Energy  Committee. 

The  Open  Space  Com- 
mittee recommended,  and 
Mayor  Phelan  implemented, 
the  largest  open  space  pres- 
ervation effort  in  Quincy's 
history.  He  purchased,  with 
hotel/motel  money  and  a 


state  grant,  the  long  con- 
tested Lot  23  property  at 
Marina  Bay,  and  the 
Bayswater  Boatyard  in 
Houghs  Neck.  These  parcels 
were  ready  for  development, 
which  would  have  had  a 
negative  impact  on  our  en- 
vironment and  our  quahty  of 
life. 

Recently,  the  Community 
Preservation  Committee  rec- 
ommended the  protection  of 
the  Cobblestone  property, 
the  Joyce  property  and  the 
Hazeltine  property.  Cobble- 
stone is  now  protected,  and 
Hazeltine  would  already  be 
developed  were  it  not  for 
Mayor  Phelan.  He  personally 
discovered  a  deed  restriction 
that  prevented  150  condos 


from  being  built  on  Quincy's 
largest  remaining  piece  of 
unprotected  open  space.  He 
also  discovered  a  secret  ease- 
ment that  would  have  kicked 
open  the  door  to  even  more 
development  in  the  area. 

Developers  with  good 
plans  are  welcome  in 
Quincy.  Developers  with  bad 
plans  want  Mayor  Phelan  out 
of  office. 

The  protection  of  open 
space  is  directly  tied  to  the 
control  of  development  in 
our  city.  As  a  Planning  Board 
member,  I'm  thrilled  with 
Mayor  Phelan's  efforts  to 
focus  development  in  our 
downtown  and  at  Crown 
Colony,  areas  that  need  de- 


velopment and  can  sustain  if. 
This  takes  the  heat  off  our 
neighborhoods  while  provid- 
ing much  needed  business 
tax  growth,  lowering  resi- 
dential property  taxes. 

Considering  the  fiscal 
state  our  City  was  in  when 
Bill  Phelan  took  office,  it  is 
amazing  that  not  one  em- 
ployee has  received  a  pink 
slip,  not  one  firehouse  has 
closed  and  we  are  finally 
building  a  new  high  school. 
And  still  Mayor  Phelan  has 
done  more  to  protect  open 
space,  and  encourage  smart 
growth  policies  than  any 
other  Mayor  in  Quincy's  his- 
tory!

Top  Winners  In 
Preliminary  Election 

By  FRANK  McCAULEY 

All  office  holders  seeking  reelection  were  nominated  in 
Quincy '  s  Plan  E  preliminary  election  which  found  Councillor 
Amelio  Delia  Chiesa  topping  the 
ticket  for  the  third  consecutive  time. 

The  election  will  result  in  at  least 
one  recount. 

The  election,  despite  the 
inclement  weather,  brought  14,713 
voters  to  the  polls  or  32  percent  of 
the  registered  vote. 

Atty.  Louis  A.  George,  former  city  councillor  who  was 
edged  out  by  one  vote  by  Charles  L.  Shea  for  the  1 4""  and  last 
place  on  the  list  of  successful  candidates,  said  he  would  ask 
for  a  recount. 

DJERF  VOTE  A  SURPRISE 

The  tremendous  vote  given  to  first  time  candidate  Dr. 
Charles  Djerf,  who  topped  the  ticket  with  8,334  votes,  was

committee  incumbents  were  nominated,  finishing  in  the 
following  order:  A.  Wendell  Clark,  Dr.  Joseph  E. 
McDemiott,  Ethel  B.  WUey,  Paul  K.  Duffy,  and  Carter

Church  Camp  For 

High  School  Youth 

To  Celebrate  50th  Year 


The  South  Shore  Youth 
Conferences  will  celebrate 
50  years  of  camping  for  jun- 
ior and  senior  high  schoolers 
with  a  dinner  Saturday,  Nov. 
3,  from  7  p.m.  to  1 2  midnight 
at  the  Lantana,  43  Scanlon 
Drive,  Randolph. 

Tickets  are  $50  per  person 
and  include  dinner,  entertain- 
ment and  DJ  and  a  "camp 
momento."  All  former  camp- 
ers and  counselors  who 
graduated  by  2006  are  urged 
to  attend. 

Diners  will  be  met  and 
greeted  from  7  to  8  p.m.,  din- 
ner will  be  served  from  8  to 
9  p.m.,  a  camp  show  will  be 
staged  from  9  to  10  p.m.  and 
there  will  be  dancing  from  10 
p.m.  to  12  midnight. 

Space  is  limited  to  700 
diners  so  response  should  be 
made  before  Oct.  15. 

The  Conferences  began  in 
1958  as  an  outgrowth  of  the 
Pilgrim  Fellowship  Camps, 
which  were  unable  to  handle 
the  number  of  campers  from 


the  South  Shore. 

The  founding  churches 
were  Quincy  Point  Congre- 
gational. Wollaston  Congre- 
gational, First  Church  of 
Squantum  and  East  Congre- 
gational Church  of  Milton. 
The  first  camp  in 
Moultonborough,  N.H., 
drew  1 1 6  youngsters. 

Over  the  past  50  years,  no 
less  than  15  South  Shore 
churches  have  been  involved 
in  the  program. 

The  current  members  are 
Old  South  Union,  First 
Church  of  Braintree,  First 
Church  of  Weymouth,  Union 
Congregation  Church  of 
Weymouth  and  Braintree 
and  Bethany  Church  of 
Quincy. 

For  the  past  seven  years, 
the  camp  has  been  located  at 
the  Ossipee  Lake  Confer- 
ence Center  in  New  Hamp- 
shire, also  known  as  Camp 
Cody,  which  can  easily  ac- 
commodate the  current  400 
campers,  a  new  high.

As  part  of  his  "Leadership 
Now"  plan,  Koch  said  it  is 
"unacceptable"  for  a  city  of 
Quincy 's  size  not  to  have  a 
fully  equipped  rescue  vehicle 
available  at  all  times.  Koch 
said,  for  the  last  several 
years.  Rescue  One  has  been 
staffed  only  sporadically,  ac- 
cording to  officials. 

"We've  been  talking 
about  Rescue  One  since 
January-and  it  is  a  simple, 
common-sense  step  forward 
for  our  fire  department," 
Koch  said.  "We  have  one  of 
the  best  fire  department's  in 
the  state,  and  we  owe  it  to  our 
taxpayers  paying  higher  tax 
bills  every  year  to  provide 
the  best  public  safety  pos- 
sible." 

When  manpower  is  avail- 
able. Rescue  One  responds  to 
virtually  every  emergency  in 
the  city,  including  car  acci- 
dents, fires,  and  other  emer- 
gencies. Koch  said,  thanks  to 
state  Rep.  Ronald  Mariano, 
the  department  recently  took 
ownership  of  a  new  rescue 
truck  donated  by  the 
MWRA.  "It  is  time  to  put  its 
capabilities  to  full  use,"  said 
Koch. 

In  addition  to  providing 
rescue  services.  Koch  said 
Rescue  One  plays  a  critical 
support  role  to  engine  and 
ladder  companies  respond-

ing  to  fires. 

Koch  said  placing  new 
emphasis  on  training  in  the 
department  will  be  a  key 
counterpart  to  restoring  Res- 
cue One  to  full  service.  The 
department  has  been  without 
a  functional  training  office 
for  some  time,  Koch  said. 
Making  sure  that  firefighters 
are  adequately  trained  for 
different  kinds  of  scenarios 
is  vital,  he  said. 

Whether  it's  one  of  the 
many  kinds  of  incidents  in 
which  a  citizen  needs  to  be 
rescued  or  a  life-threatening 
situation  faced  by  a  fellow 
firefighter,  there  are  special 
kinds  of  training  needed  for 
the  firefighters  who  staff 
Rescue  One,  Koch  said. 

"It  is  not  just  about  pub- 
lic safety,  but  about  the 
safety  of  our  firefighters  who 
can  face  any  number  of  dan- 


gerous scenarios,"  Koch 
said.  "City  Hall  has  an  obli- 
gation to  do  everything  in  its 
power  to  allow  the  fire  de- 
partment to  do  its  job,  and 
that's  what  we  plan  to  do." 

When  in  service.  Rescue 
One  keeps  equipment  and 
specially  trained  firefighters 
to  respond  to  the  wide  range 
of  unique  scenarios  that 
Quincy  can  face.  Currently, 
the  equipment  is  spread 
among  difi'erent  engine  com- 
panies in  the  city. 

Koch's  announcement  is 
the  fourth  part  of  his  "Lead- 
ership Now,"  program, 
which  can  be  found  on

Abhy  Gone  Five  Weeks 

Neighbors  Help  Search  For  Missing  Puppy 


City  Will  Pave 
100th  Street  This  Fall 


Neighbors  in  the  Hudson 
S(ree!,  Merrynioiint.  area 
have  pulled  together  to  help 
find  Abby,  a  nine  pound  ball 
ol  white  fur  with  tan  cars. 

Abby,  part  poodle  and  part 
Shih  T/u,  has  been  missing 
lor  five  weeks. 

Abby's  neighbors  have 
been  helping  the  puppy's 
owner,  Cindy  F^'arnsworth  ot 
Hudson  Street,  by  giving  out 
niers,  posting  notices  on 
telephone  poles,  and  on 
Craig's  List  but  the  search 
continues. 

Farnsworth,  a  registered 
nurse  at  Cambridge  Hospital, 
said  all  her  friends  and 
neighbors,  especially  the 
Jordans  anti  Peter  Williams, 
have  pitched  in  and  worked 
so  hard. 

"We  walked  Mount 
Wollaston  Cemetery," 
Farnsworth  said  of  one  of  the 
many  futile  searches  that 
have  taken  her  around  the 
city  chasing  down  leads. 

To  date,  there's  been  no 
trace  of  the  now  I  I -month 
old  pup  who  disappeared 
from  her  backyanl  on  Aug. 
?t  1  w  hen  she  was  playing  with 
Ronan,  her  natural  brother. 

Farnswoilh  has  oflered  a 
reward  with  no  questions 
asked  just  for  the  return  of 
the  tiny  pup. 

"She's  the  friendhest  little 
thing,"  said  Farnsworth,  who 
believes,         "Somebody

MISS1N(J  FIJI' ABKV  is  shoHn  with  her  constant  companion 
and  brother  Roman.  The  white  mixed  p(MKlle-Shih  T/u  has  been 
missing  since  Aug.  3 1 .  A  reward  is  offered.  No  questions  asked. 


obviously  came  by  and  took 
her.  1  implore  anyone  who 
has  seen  her  to  get  in  touch." 

Farnsworth  now  believes 
that  Abby  sc|uee/ed  out  a 
small  hole  in  her  fence  and 
went  "bebopping  down  the 
street"  with  her  leash 
dragging  behind.  Abby's 
collar  is  black  and  white  and 
her  leash  is  red. 

Abby  may  have  a  little 
limp  as  she  underwent  hip 
surgery  several  months  ago, 
according  to  Farnsworth. 

"I  have  a  large  backyard 
with  a  fence,"  Farnsworth 

Political  Advertisement 


said,  describing  the  area 
where  her  two  puppies 
played. "Behind  the  fence  is 
Black's  Creek  but  they  never 
go  in  the  creek  or  play  in  the 
bushes." 

When  Abby  didn't  come 
in  from  the  backyard  with 
her  brother,  Roman,  that 
Friday,  Farnsworth  feared  the 
worst.  "1  was  terribly  afraid 
she'd  been  caught  in  the 
underbrush." 

Firefighters  and  Bill 
Tanguay  of  the  Animal 
Rescue  League  (ARL) 
searched  the  underbrush  and

"He  actually  got  in  the 
creek  and  walked  the  full 
length  of  the  creek," 
Farnsworth  said,  describing 
Tanguay  who  spent  over  an 
hour  walking  the  muddy 
waters  in  boots. 

Tanguay  told 

Farnsworth, "She's      not 
there." 

While  Farnsworth  mis.ses 
her  beloved  pup,  the  little 
dog's  brother,  Roman,  misses 
her  even  more. 

"She's  Roman's  natural 
sister,"  said  Farnsworth  who 
described  the  two  pups  as 
inseparable.  For  days,  Roman 
who  is  two  years  old  and  1 7 
pounds  went  running  around 
the  house  sniffing  under 
furniture  and  all  over  the 
backyard  yard  looking  for 
Abby. 

"He  slept  20  hours  of  the 
day  and  did  not  eat  for  three 
days,"  said  Farnsworth  of 
Roman  who  has  black  and 
white  coloring  in  contrast  to 
his  sister.  Farnsworth  has 
received  some  calls  in 
response  to  her 

advertisements  and  posters, 
particularly  from  her  Quincy 
Sun  ad,  and  she  said  she's 
followed  every  lead  with  no 
success. 

Once  again,  she  implores 
anyone  with  any  information 
to  call  her  at  617-471-6387. 


The  city  will  pave  its  100th 
street  this  fall  under  the 
Pavement  Management  Plan 
begun  in  2004. 

The  project  includes  main 
roads  and  neighborhood 
streets.  Mayor  William 
Phelan  and  Department  of 
Public  Works  Commissioner 
Steve  O'Donnell  note. 

The  plan  was  created  and 
adopted  as  a  way  to  ma.ximize 
the  city's  limited  paving 
dollars.  The  plan  analyzed 
every  street  in  Quincy  and 
prioritized  based  on 
condition,  need,  and  usage. 
The  plan  as  served  as  the 
blueprint  for  the  city's 
investment  in  road  repairs 
since  2004. 

O'Donnell  said  the  city 
saved  tens  of  millions  of 
dollars  by  adopting  the 
preventive  maintenance 
principles  of  the  plan.  By 


acting  soon,  the  city 
prevented  millions  and 
millions  of  full-depth 
reconstruction  costs  that 
would  have  been  necessary 
absent  the  preventive 
maintenance  procedures 
completed  in  the  last  three 
years. 

"One  hundred  streets  in 
just  over  three  years  is  an 
aggressive  schedule,  but 
we've  had  the  support  of  the 
mayor  and  the  council  all  the 
way  through,"  said 
O'Donnell. 

"We  are  proud  of  the  work 
we  have  done  to  bring  our 
roads  up  to  respectability," 
said  Phelan.  "But  we  are 
committed  to  finishing  the 
plan.  We  are  now  a  year  ahead 
of  schedule  and  we  plan  on 
continuing  to  maximize  our 
paving  dollars  and  repairing 
as  many  streets  as  possible."

Logue  Says  Concourse  Will 
Financially  Hurt  Homeowners 


Pastor  James  Kimmell 
Retiring  After  38  Years 


The  Quincy  Center  Con- 
course project  will  hurt 
Quincy  homeowners  by  tak- 
ing more  than  $  1 6  million  in 
commercial  business  proper- 
ties off  the  tax  rolls,  Coun- 
cilor-at-Large  candidate  Jen- 
nifer McCauley  Logue  says. 

Logue  said  she  has  re- 
searched the  assessed  prop- 
erty values  of  those  Quincy 
Center  businesses  slated  to 
be  demolished,  and  the  con- 
course will  have  a  direct  im- 
pact on  the  city's 
homeowners,  who  likely  will 
be  forced  to  make  up  the  tax 
revenue  lost  when  dozens  of 
downtown  businesses  are 
demolished  or  displaced  to 
make  way  for  the  concourse. 

"One  of  the  biggest  issues 
facing  Quincy  residents  is 
rising  home  property  taxes  - 
and  the  best  way  to  keep 
those  increases  in  check  is  to 
expand  our  commercial  tax 
base,"  Logue  said.  "But  in- 
stead our  city  leaders  are 
planning  to  demolish  dozens 
of  businesses  that  together 
are  assessed  for  more  than 
$  1 6  million.  That  means  for 
the  foreseeable  future, 
Quincy  is  going  to  be  losing 
commercial  tax  revenue  at  a 
time  when  we  need  it  most." 

Without  that  commercial 


tax  revenue,  Logue  said,  the 
city  will  be  forced  to  try  to 
make  up  the  lost  revenue 
from  other  sources  -  and  that 
likely  will  mean  either  an 
increase  in  home  property 
taxes  or  cuts  in  city  services. 

And  that  doesn't  even 
take  into  account  the  $30 
milhon  the  city  is  borrowing 
for  the  concourse,  she  added. 

"Financially,  this  project 
simply  doesn't  make  sense," 
Logue  said.  "Our  elected  of- 
ficials are  borrowing  $30 
million  at  the  same  time 
they're  taking  $  1 6  million  in 
businesses  off  the  commer- 
cial tax  rolls.  Common  sense 
indicates  that  the  city  is  go- 
ing to  be  losing  money  on 
this  project  for  years  to 
come. 

"Quincy  homeowners 
need  property  tax  relief  now 
-  not  a  decade  from  now." 

If  elected,  Logue  said  she 
would  advocate  for  a  two- 
pronged  economic  revital- 
ization  strategy:  In  addition 
to  recommending  that  the 
city  participate  in  the  Na- 
tional Trust  for  Historic 
Preservation's  Main  Streets 
revitalization  program,  she 
would  also  work  to  develop 
a  strategic,  proactive  market- 


ing plan  to  attract  new  busi- 
nesses to  Quincy  Center. 

For  too  long,  Logue  said, 
Quincy's  economic  develop- 
ment activities  have  lacked 
focus,  resulting  in  a  glut  of 
restaurants  and  nail  salons 
and  a  dearth  of  clothing  and 
specialty  shops. 

"Quincy  needs  to  be  more 
strategic,"  Logue  said. 
"Drawing  on  my  marketing 
and  public  relations  skills, 
I'd  work  with  city  and  com- 
munity leaders  to  develop  a 
proactive  strategy  for  ex- 
panding our  commercial  tax 
base.  Instead  of  giving  out 
loans  to  any  type  of  business 
that  wants  one,  we  need  to 
set  priorities,  determine 
which  type  of  businesses  to 
come  to  Quincy." 

The  former  executive  di- 
rector of  Discover  Quincy, 
Logue's  community  service 
includes  serving  on  the 
Mayor's  Leadership  Council 
on  Homelessness  and  on  the 
Quincy  High  School  Siting 
Commission  charged  with 
selecting  the  site  for  the  new 
Quincy  High  School.  She  is 
a  past  president  of  the 
Quincy  Lions  Club,  and 
served  as  a  Registrar  of  Vot- 
ers from  2003-2006. 


Pastor  James  L.  Kimmell, 
PJ  to  his  parishioners,  is  re- 
tiring after  38  years  of  ser- 
vice to  Faith  Lutheran 
Church,  201  Granite  St..  and 
its  predecessor. 

His  last  sermon  will  be 
preached  Sunday.  Nov.  4. 

A  special  appreciation 
dinner,  scheduled  for  Satur- 
day. Oct..  1 3.  at  6  p.m.  in  the 
Quincy  Masonic  Temple,  has 
already  been  sold  out. 

Kimmell  and  his  wife. 
Gail,  a  teacher  now  retired 
from  the  Quincy  school  sys- 
tem, arrived  in  Quincy  in 
1 969.  fresh  from  a  Lutheran 
seminary  in  Pennsylvania. 

He  was  named  to  admin- 
ister to  the  Trinity  Lutheran 
Church  on  Roberts  Street 
and  remained  when  it 
merged  with  Salem  Lutheran 
to  form  Faith  Lutheran. 

Over  the  years,  he  served 
on  the  Quincy  Housing  Au- 
thority, the  Fire  Department 
as  Protestant  chaplain  and 
was  a  member  of  the  South 
West  Community  Council. 

He  was  well  known  for 
his  frequent  visits  to  patients 
in  local  hospitals  and  served 
as  pulpit  supply  giving  ser- 
mons in  sign  language  to 
hearing-impaired.

Councillors  Take  Issue 

With  Mayor  On  State 

Health  Insurance  Status 


Quincy  Soldier's  Family 

Wants  To  Know  How 
She  Died  In  Afghanistan 


(Cont'd  From  Page  I) 

noted  that  the  council  had 
quickly  passed  Phelan's 
request  for  a  Home  Rule 
Petition  extending  the  Oct.  1 
deadline  by  60-days. 

On  Sept.  24,  the 
councillors  voted 

unanimously  to  require  the 
mayor  to  organize  the  Public 
Employees  Committee 
(PEC)  and  get  a  written 
agreement  between  the  city's 
employees  and  the  mayor. 

According  to  Davis,  the 
council  engaged  in 
meaningful  discussion  while 
the  mayor  dropped  the  ball, 
"He  didn't  send  out  a  letter 
when  he  should  have  sent  out 
a  letter." 

Councillors  noted  that  the 
health  insurance  issue  had 
been  under  consideratii>n 
since  last  spring  hut  Phelan 
never  educated  the  city's 
employees. 

Opening  up  the  Ci.I.  C.  to 
cities  and  towns  was  part  of 


Governor  Deval  Patrick's 
election  platform. 

Othercouncillors  accused 
the  mayor  of  using  the  City 
Council  as  a  scapegoat  for 
his  failings  on  the  health 
insurance  issue. 

Members  repeatedly 
noted  that  the  Council  voted 
within  minutes  on  Sept.  24  to 
approve  Phelan's  Home  Rule 
Petition  for  a  60-day 
extension  of  the  health 
insurance  deadline. 

Councillors  noted  that 
Phelan  still  has  not  organized 
the  required  employees' 
committee  nor  had  he  gained 
the  required  support  from  any 
employee  group  by  Monday, 
the  state  deadline  for  a 
decision. 

Councillor  Joseph  Finn 
said  the  council  had  insisted 
on  the  process  and  that  it  was 
"unconscionable"  to  use 
health  insurance  as  an  "easy 
political  soundbite." 

On  Monday  and  at 
previous  meetings,  Finn 
asked  councillors   to  do

considerable  research  before 
approving  the  state  health 
insurance  program. 

"It's  been  a  decade  since 
the  city  went  out  to  bid,"  Finn 
said,  adding  that  there  could 
be  new,  better  and,  possibly, 
less  expensive  insurance 
lines  in  the  future. 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  said  that  the  health 
insurance  remains  "a 
complex  issue....  Beyond  the 
fingerpointing  and  the 
politics,  this  issue  deserves 
more  respect  than  the 
political  sound-bites." 

"We  didn't  vote  no,"  said 
Councillor  John  Keenan  who 
added  that  any  council  vote 
"....would  have  had  no 
practical  effect. 

Communication  will  now 
improve." 

Keenan  suggested  that 
everybody  get  "away  from 
the  finger-pointing." 

Councillor  Michael 
McFarland,  Ward  6 
Councillor  Brian  McNamee 
and  Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  were  present  but  did 
not  discuss  the  issue.

was  clamped  on  further  in-

Was  she  picked  off  by  an 
Afghan  sniper  while  walking 
in  the  safety  of  an  otherwise 
secure  air  base?  Did  she  die 
by  friendly  fire,  deliberately 
or  accidentally?  The  Durkin 
family  of  Houghs  Neck 
would  like  to  know. 

And  so  would  the  govern- 
ment of  Ireland,  where  most 
of  the  Durkin  family  was 


bom,  which  has  asked  to  be 
"kept  up  to  date"  on  the  in- 
vestigation. Military  officials 
say  could  be  as  long  as  eight 
weeks. 

Rep.  Bill  Delahunt  also 
has  asked  the  Defense  De- 
partment to  "fully  explain" 
the  circumstances  of  Cpl. 
Durkin's  death,  which  oc- 
curred Friday  about  6:30 
p.m.  Afghan  time  or  Satur- 
day at  4  a.m.  Quincy  time. 

Cpl.  Durkin  was  bom  in 
County  Galway  and  moved 
with  most  of  her  family  to  the 


United  States  as  a  little  girl, 
settling  in  Dorchester  and 
then  Quincy.  She  attended 
Fontbonne  Academy  in 
Milton. 

She  joined  the  Massachu- 
setts Army  National  Guard  in 
2005  and  had  been  in  Af- 
ghanistan since  February 
when  she  was  killed,  the  sec- 
ond Quincy  soldier  to  die  in 
the  Afghan-Iraqi  conflicts. 

The  first  was  National 
Guard  Sgt.  Todd  Charles 
Caldwell,  who  was  killed 
Sept.  12,  2003,  in  Iraq.

cans also  cost  $150,000  less

"The  Pelicans  are  a  great

O'Donnell.  "They  are  du-

efit Gold  Star  parents  and 
spouses,  as  well  as  100  per 
cent  disabled  veterans,  many 
of  whom  live  on  fixed  in- 
comes and  can't  afford  to 
have  these  annuities  taxed," 
he  said. 

"This  bill  is  an  attempt  to 
exclude  the  small  state  annu- 
ity granted  to  Gold  Star  par- 
ents, spouses  and  certain  vet- 
erans. Currently,  these  annu- 
ities do  not  exceed  $2,000." 

The  bill  also  requires 
housing  authorities  exclude 
such  annuity  payments 
when  calculating  net  income 
for  residents 

"It  seems  unfair  to  me  that 
local  housing  authorities  are 
using  these  annuities  for  cal- 
culating rent,"  said 
Morrissey.  Essentially,  they 
are  taking  money  from  the 
pockets  of  the  citizens  that 
need  it  the  most."

Two  Retirees  To  Be  Honored 
At  Firefighters  Banquet

Quincy  firefighters  will 
hold  the  50th  annual 
retirement  banquet  tonight

Councilor-at-Large  John 
Keenan  has  called  upon 
Mayor  William  Phelan  to 
further  fund  the  city's  stabi- 
lization account  or  "face  a 
dramatic  increase"  in  prop- 
erty taxes. 

Keenan,  who  serves  as 
chairman  of  the  City 
Council's  Fmance  Commit- 
tee, pointed  out  that  when  the 
financing  package  for  the 
new  Quincy  High  School 
and  capital  improvement 
plan  was  presented  to  the 
City  Council,  it  was  noted 
that  the  stabilization  fund 
had  to  be  increased. 

"At  the  time  the  high 
school  bond  was  approved," 
said  Keenan.  "I  expressed 
my  concern  that  the  city  must 
have  sufficient  cash  reserves 
in  order  to  meet  the  city's 
overall  future  bond  obliga- 
tions, including  those  asso- 
ciated with  the  new  high 
school  and  the  Capital  Im- 


proNcment  Program." 

Keenan  was  instrumental 
in  having  $4..'>  million  trans- 
ferred to  the  city's  stabiliza- 
tion account  in  February, 
2007. 

"I'm  calling  upon  the 
mayor  again  to  transfer  the 
city's  'free  cash,'  once  certi- 
fied by  the  Department  of 
Revenue,  to  the  stabilization 
account,"  he  said. 

Keenan  siiid  ttiat  the  city's 
bond  advisor.  First  South- 
west, recommended  that  the 
stabilization  account  be 
funded  with  approximately 
$20  million  to  offset  the  in- 
creases in  the  budget  neces- 
sary to  pay  the  increased  bor- 


rowing costs  associated  with 
the  high  school. 

"Presently,  the  city  has 
approximately  $12.3  million 
in  the  stabilization  account. 
It's  not  enough,"  said 
Keenan. 

"If  we  do  not  make  a  ma- 
jor effort  to  increase  that 
fund  over  the  next  two  years, 
the  taxpayers  will  see  a  dra- 
matic increase  in  their  prop- 
erty taxes  in  Fiscal  Years 
2010  and  2011. 

"We  can  avoid  this  situa- 
tion if  we  act  wisely  now, 
and  1  urge  the  mayor  to  in- 
troduce the  transfer  request 
to  the  City  Council  as  soon 
as  possible."

"Czar  Alexander  was  dif-

"The  czar  himself  re-

It  was  done  through  a  chan-

"The  nomination  was  sent

from  what  he  did  at  the  end 
of  his  life." 

"He  experienced  an  enor- 
mous .self-doubt,"  he  said. 
"He  was  always  asking 
'What  have  I  accomplished?' 
He  didn't  see  the  good  he  had 
done.  He  was  always  hold- 
ing himself  to  high  stan- 
dards. 

"I  started  out  to  concen- 
trate on  the  last  decade  of  his 
life.  But  I  found  myself  go- 
ing backward.  Now  I've  got- 
ten back  to  44.  his  age  when 
he  was  minister  to  Russia." 

John  Quincy  Adams  is 
only  the  latest  of  the  array  of 
historical  personages  Cooke 
has  in  a  repertoire  that  in- 
cludes Calvin  Coolidge, 
Daniel  Webster  and  the  ora- 
tor Edward  Everett. 

It  began  in  1985  when 
Cooke,  a  graduate  of  the 
University  of  New  Hamp- 
shire with  a  masters  degree 
from  Emerson,  was  portray- 
ing the  30th  president  in  a 
play,  "The  Calvin  Coolidge 
Follies"  in  Cambridge. 

"People  never  let  me  for- 
get it,"  he  said.  "The  Calvin 
Coolidge  I  played  was  a  ste- 
reotype. I  did  some  research 
on    him.  1  found  him  very 


different.  He  may  have  been 
taciturn  but  was  a  very  witty 
man." 

"Calvin  Coolidge:  More 
Than  Two  Words,"  a  solo  act, 
was  bom. 

Since  then,  Cooke  has 
performed  at  the  White 
House,  the  Library  of  Con- 
gress and  the  National  Ar- 
chives and  has  appeared  on 
The  Today  Show,  C-Span 
and  National  Public  Radio. 

The  Cooke  version  of 
"John  Quincy  Adams  in  Rus- 
sia" has  already  been  tested 
at  the  Old  South  Meeting 
House  in  Boston  and  the 
Amherst  College  Center  for 
Russian  Culture  in  conjunc- 
tion with  Adams'  biographer. 
Dr.  Lynn  Hudson  Parsons. 

And,  just  a  week  before 
his  departure  for  Russia,  he 
will  portray  Calvin  Coolidge 
as  featured  speaker  for  the 
Mount  Rushmore  Memorial 
Society  in  South  Dakota. 

Coolidge  helped  dedicate 
work  that  was  about  to  be- 
gin in  1925  on  the  famed 
memorial  to  four  presidents 
—  said  to  be  the  last  time  a 
president  traveled  on  horse- 
back to  deliver  a  major  ad- 
dress.

Building  a 

Student-Centered, 

Urban  Public  University 

It  is  such  a  pleasure  for  me  to  address  our 
Quincy  neighbors  through  this  newspaper 
column.  1  hope  that  through  these  monthly 
columns,  our  neighbors  will  feel  both  informed 
and  invited  to  visit  our  campus  and  be  a  part  of 
our  vibrant  campus  community. 

We  are  having  a  fantastic  fall  semester.  We 
recently  held  our  2007  (Convocation  and  Open- 
ing Week  activities.  For  the  students,  there  was  a 
vibrant  array  of  welcome  week  GameOn!  activi- 
ties, and  on  C'onvocation  Day,  I  was  inspired  bv 
Dr.  JudyAnn  Bigby,  our  state's  secretary  of  health 
and  human  services,  who  presented  an  address 
titled  "Striving  for  Hquality."  On  that  day,  I  was 
also  tremendously  honored  to  deliver  my  first 
convocation  address  as  the  eighth  chancellor  ot 
UMass  Boston:  "Toward  the  Student-( Centered, 
Urban  Public  University  ot  the  New  Century." 

In  so  many  ways  we  are  achieving  this  vision. 
So  much  is  already  taking  place.  This  summer, 
we  welcomed  back  Camp  Shriver,  which  was 
hosted  for  a  second  year  bv  our  C  enter  for  Soeial 
Development  and  I'.ducation,  and  we  are  thrilled 
that  one  of  its  primary  organizers  .it  U.Mass  Bos- 
ton, Professor  (iar\  Siperstein,  has  been  selectetl 
as  a  recipient  of  this  year  s  Presulent's  Award  lor 
Public  Service.  We  were  also  pleased  to  kick  off  a 
brand-new  research  and  tr.utiing  center,  doKids 
Boston,  .1  site  for  coliabor.itive  research  conduct 
ed  by  experts  from  C;hiidrtn\  I  lospital  Boston 
and  our  (  ollege  ot  iNursing  and  I  lealth  Sciences. 

I  am  happy  to  say  that  there  is  a  new  vibranc\ 
that  has  attracted  a  surge  ot  new  interest  in  our 
university.  We  had  a  terrific  year  m  applications 
and  saw  an  increase  of  ne.irlv  I""  percent  in  fresh- 
man applications.  We  increased  our  financial  aid 
to  students  by  nearly  l^  percent  to  a  total  of  $4./! 
million.  Our  research  funds  reached  nearh  $42 
million.  Also,  we  raised  nearh  %\1  million  in  FY 
2007,  which  was  ?  percent  over  our  goal  for  the 
year  ami  21  percent  more  than  we  raised  in  2006. 
I  he  Honors  Program  grew  to  2'"'>  students,  a

Dollars 
and  $en$e

Public  Invited  To  See  Easy  Ways  To  Beat  High  Energy  Costs 

Energy-Efficient  Building  At  221  Manet  Ave. 


When  Adjustable 
Mortgages  Reset 

Suhprime:  When  a  lender 
loans  money  for  a  mortgage 
under  less  ihan  ideal  cir- 
cumstances. 

Two  years  ago,  in  a  lending 
frenzy,  buyers  with  less- 
than-perfcct  credit  were  giv- 
en subprime  adjustable 
mortgages  with  extremely 
low  teaser  interest  rates,  typ- 
ically for  a  period  of  two 
years.  Because  the  housing 
market  was  going  strong  a 
fe\v  years  ago  (the  economic 
bubble),  buyers  assumed 
that  values  would  continue 
to  rise  and  that  at  the  end  of 
the  low-interest  period,  they 
would  be  able  to  refinance 
when  the  interest  rate  adjust- 
ed. 

Now,  just  when  those 
interest  rates  are  resetting, 
many  of  those  homeowners 
are  finding  that  they're 
unable  to  refinance.  Perhaps 
their  personal  credit  situa- 
tions are  no  longer  in  good 
shape  (or  never  were  to 
begin  with).  Perhaps  they're 
out  of  work.  Or,  more  often 
than  not,  home  values  have 
fallen  and  the  house  can't  be 
sold  for  what's  still  owed  on 
the  note. 

With  the  increased  interest 
coming  due,  many  of  those 
formerly  hopeful  buyers  are 
going  to  be  forced  to  make 
much  larger  mortgage  pay- 
ments. Many  can't  afford  the 
extra  hundreds  of  dollars  per 
month. 

Delinquencies  are  already 
soaring,  and  the  peak  for  this 
is  likely  to  be  in  October.  It's 
thought  that  the  interest 
rates  of  $50  billion  in  mort- 


gages are  going  to  reset. 

This  can  create  a  vicious 
cycle.  With  so  many  home- 
owners defaultmg,  lenders 
have  tightened  up  on  how 
and  when  they  loan  money, 
leaving  homeowners  unable 
to  refinance  their  loans. 
When  buyers  default  and 
lose  their  homes  to  foreclo- 
sure, it  leaves  vacant 
dwellings  in  a  neighbor- 
hood. This  in  turn  affects  the 
selling  prices  of  other  homes 
in  the  area,  many  of  which 
have  likely  been  on  the  mar- 
ket for  a  long  time  already. 

Enter  the  scammers.  For  a 
big  upfront  fee,  they 
promise  to  deal  with  the 
mortgage  company  for  the 
homeowner.  Unfortunately, 
all  too  often  homeowners 
are  discovering  that  the 
scammers  just  take  the  mon- 
ey and  run.  Meanwhile  the 
mortgage  company  moves 
ahead  with  foreclosure  plans 
because  the  homeowner 
doesn't  contact  them. 

If  you're  caught  in  this  sit- 
uation and  know  you  can't 
make  the  increased  pay- 
ments when  your  interest 
rate  goes  up,  contact  your 
lender.  Depending  on  your 
payment  history,  it  might  be 
able  to  help.  A  scammer  cer- 
tainly won't.

Michael  Berry  invites  the 
public  to  visit  221  Manet 
Ave.,  in  Quincy  for  the  2007 
Green  Buildings  Open  House 
Saturday,  Oct.  6. 

The  Northeast  Sustainable 
Hnergy  Association 

(NtiSEA)  invites  the  public 
to  visit  "green"  homes  and 
businesses,  and  see  clean 
renewable  energy  systems. 

More  and  more  people  arc 
recognizing  the  harmful 
effects  of  global  climate 
change  and  the  need  to  reduce 
carbon  emissions. 


Saturday's  Open  House, 
part  of  the  American  Solar 
Energy  Society's  National 
Solar  Tour,  is  an  opportunity 
to  learn  first-hand  how 
incorporating  green  elements 
can  help  reduce  heating  costs, 
increase  energy 

conservation,  and  even 
generate  surplus  clean 
energy. 

Private  homes, 

busines.ses,  public  buildings, 
and  renewable  energy 
installations  throughout 
Massachusetts  will  open  their 


doors  and  welcome  the  public 
to  tour,  ask  questions,  and 
discover  ways  people  are 
con.serving  energy,  saving 
money,  and  protecting  the 
environment. 

Examples  of  green 
features  that  are  used  in 
homes  and  buildings  include 
passive  solar  heating 
(advantageous  placement  of 
windows),  solar  hot  water 
collection  and  storage, 
radiant  floor  heating,  the 
generation  of  electricity 
using  photovoltaics  (solar 


panels),  or  wind,  the  use  of 
energy-saving  appliances 
and  techniques  (super- 
insulation  and  .sealing  air 
spaces)  use  of  sustainable  and 
healthy  building  materials, 
and  the  use  of  water-saving 
fixtures. 

To  improve  indoor  air 
quality,  green  building 
materials  that  address 
allergy /asthma- sensitive 
people  include  paints, 
insulation  and  carpeting. 
Also  demonstrated  is  the  use 
of  local,  sustaintable- 
harvested  wood  products.

Liang  Presents  Ideas 
For  Older  Adults  Programs 


Jimmy  Liang  outlined  his 
ideas  to  better  serve  older 
adults  of  Quincy.  At  a  recent 
coffee  hour  hosted  by  Sharon 
Gamache  of  Glover  Ave. 

Liang  promised  to  orga- 
nize an  intergenerational  pro- 
gram that  will  serve  older 
adults  in  their  homes  and  in 
community  centers  by 
coupliing  them  with  high- 
school  students  who  can  run 
errands,  do  small  household 
jobs,  and  help  lift  things. 

The  older  adults  would 
serve  the  students  as  a  kind 
of  recorded  history  program, 
telling  them  about  their  ex- 
periences growing  up  and 
about  what  effect  major  his- 
torical events  had  on  their 


lives.  The  students  would  get 
community  credit  for  their 
projects. 

Liang  said  his  other  plans 
is  to  make  sure  that  the  streets 
and  sidewalks  are  safer  for 
older  adults  from  both  a  pe- 
destrian safety  viewpoint  and 
from  a  fall  prevention  per- 
spective. According  to  the 
Centers  for  Disease  Control 
and  Prevention,  falls  are  the 
leading  cause  of  death  from 
injury  for  older  adults,  and 
30  percent  of  people  65  and 
older  will  experience  a  fall  in 
a  year. 

"Just  as  the  City  of  Quincy 
has  a  program  in  which 
people  can  nominate  their 
neighbors  for  keeping  a  neat 
and  beautiful  yard  in  the  sum- 


mer, there  should  be  an  award 
program  for  people  who  keep 
their  driveways  and  side- 
walks clear  of  ice  and  snow, 
making  a  less  likely  that 
people  will  fall,"  said  Liang. 

"1  will  also  provide  fall 
prevention  information 
through  my  community  of- 
fice, and  ril  work  with  the 
city  to  make  sure  that  get  fall 
prevention  information  out 
to  older  adults  through  com- 
munity centers  and  other  pro- 
grams. 

To  discuss  ideas  with 
Liang,  visit  his  campaign  of- 
fice at  38  Billings  Road  on 
Wednesdays  from  2  to  4  p.m. 
or  call  the  office  at  6 1 7-33 1  -

SGT.  SEAN  DUGGAN 


A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Saturday,  Sept.  22,  at  approximately  2:25  P.M., 
Officers'  Matt  Miller  and  James  Dentremont  were 
dispatched  to  the  Stop  N"  Shop  on  the  Southern  .Artery  to 
investigate  a  call  of  "a  man  trying  to  sell  jewelry  to 
customers"  at  the 
entranceway. 

The  manager  of  the  store 
told  the  dispatcher  that  the 
suspect  was  walking  toward 
the  area  of  Yellow  Cab  on 
McGrath  Highway  after 
attempting  to  sell  jewelry  to 
three  customers  of  the  store. 
Sergeant  Sean  Duggan 
located  the  suspect  in  the 
rear  of  the  Yellow  Cab 
parking  lot  and  informed 

headquarters.  For  his  safety,  Sergeant  Duggan  pat-frisked 
the  suspect  and  asked  him  if  he  had  "anything"  on  him. 

The  suspect  said,  'T  have 
a  half  joint  in  my  shirt 
pocket."  Sergeant  Duggan 
then  retrieved  the  marijuana 
joint.  Sergeant  Duggan  read 
Miranda  Rights  to  the 
suspect,  who  stated  he 
understood  and  expres.sed  a 
willingness  to  answer 
questions. 

The  suspect  was  asked 
about  the  zip-bag  of  jewelry 
he  was  carrying  and  the  suspect  said  that  it  was  "fake" 
and  that  he  gets  the  jewelry  from  New  York.  He  said  that 
he  buys  the  rings  for  $20  each,  and  then  re-tags  them  at  a 
higher  price.  In  addition  to  three  rings,  the  suspect  also 
had  eight  necklaces,  nine  gold  colored  bracelets  and  one 
gold  colored  charm.  Each  gold  colored  piece  of  jewelry 
was  stamped  "14K." 

Officer  Miller  went  into  Yellow  Cab  and  spoke  to  an 
employee  who  stated  that  the  suspect  tried  to  sell  her 
necklaces  and  bracelets.  She  said  the  suspect  as.sured  her 
that  the  jewelry  was  "real  gold"  and  he  would  sell  her  a 
necklace  for  $80.  When  she  said  she  was  not  interested, 
the  suspect  offered  a  lower  price  of  $40,  but  she  declined 
and  the  suspect  left. 

The  suspect,  a  6 1 -year-old  Dorchester  resident  was 
arrested  and  charged  with  "Possession  of  Class  D 
(marijuana)  and  Attempt  to  Commit  a  Crime  by  False 
Pretense."  The  jewelry  was  seized  as  evidence  for  court 
purposes. 
Nice  Work! 

In  cases  like  this,  buying  a  product  from  an  unknown 
person  is  very  risky.  The  quahty  of  the  product  is  unknown 
as  well  as  where  it  came  from  -  the  jewelry  could  have 
been  stolen  in  a  house  break  and  now,  you  the  buyer  could 
be  involved  in  the  crime  of  "Receiving  Stolen  Property." 
Remember,  when  you  open  your  wallet  or  purse  to  pay 
this  unknown  suspect,  you  are  also  exposing  how  much 
money  you  have  and  you  could  be  victimized  as  part  of  a 
robbery.  Why  do  people  continue  to  go  door  to  door  selling 
fake  and/or  marked  up  merchandise?  Because  there  are 
enough  people  out  there  willing  to  buy  at  the  risk  of  being 
swindled  -  simply  put,  there  is  a  market  out  there  and  until 
people  say  no  and  report  this  activity  to  the  Police,  it  will

Quincy  resident  scan^T"gd:  one  of  our  citizens  recently 
was  swindled  out  of  $7,000  via  the  "Bank  Examiner"  scam. 
The  80-year-old  victim  received  a  call  from  someone 
identifying  himself  as  a  Police  Officer  investigating  corrupt 
bank  employees,  stating  that  she  was  needed  to  help  catch 
them. 

The  victim  was  instructed  to  withdraw  the  money  so 
that  Officers  could  mark  the  dollars  and  track  it  to  the 
corrupt  employee.  She  was  directed  to  meet  the  Officer  in 
the  parking  lot  of  the  Library  in  Quincy  Square  at  noon 
(Sept.  24*)  and  asked  what  kind  of  car  she  drove. 

Once  in  the  lot,  a  man  approximately  50  years  old  in  a 
tweed  jacket,  who  identified  himself  as  Officer  Carmichael, 
approached  her.  The  victim  asked  to  see  a  badge  and  the 
suspect  quickly  showed  a  gold  badge  with  the  name 
"Carmichael"  on  it.  After  she  turned  the  money  over  to 
the  suspect,  she  was  instructed  to  keep  the  investigation 
quiet  so  that  they  could  catch  the  criminals. 

The  victim  went  home  and  received  a  follow-up  call 
from  the  suspect,  who  told  her  that  the  money  would  show 
on  her  statement  that  it  was  missing  from  her  account,  but 
it  was  actually  there.  Her  final  instructions  were  to  wait  a 
few  weeks  and  the  "Pohce"  would  contact  her  again. 

If  anyone  has  any  information  on  this  case,  please 
contact  me  so  that  we  can  get  this  elderly  woman  her 
money  back  and  get  this  criminal  off  the  streets.

North  Quincy  Gives  Falmouth  The  Boot,  24-22 

Raiders  Red  Hot; 
Post  Third  Straight  Win 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

North  Quincy  won  its 
third  straight  game  and  its 
second  straight  Atlantic 
Coast  League  contest  last 
Priday  night  at  Veterans  Me- 
morial Stadium  on  a  23-yard 
field  goal  with  just  under  ten 
seconds  to  play  in  regulation. 

But  here's  the  kicker.  The 
winning  hoot  came  off  the 
foot  of  a  senior  who  had 
never  attempted  a  field  goal- 
ever-and  it  was  the  first  at- 
tempt at  three  points  by  a 
Red  Raider  team  in  almost 
five  years. 

Senior  Zac  Deegan's  kick 
spilt  the  uprights  and  gave 
North  Quincy  an  improbable 
24-22  come-from-behind 
victory  over  Falmouth  High 
School.  It  marked  the  second 
time  this  season  that  the 
Raiders  had  rallied  in  the 
fourth  quarter  to  beat  an  At- 
lantic Coast  League  oppo- 
nent (North  knocked  off 
Sandwich  High  School  13- 
12  on  Sept.  14).  With  the 
win,  the  Red  Raiders  upped 
their  early  season  record  to 
3-1  overall,  and  2-0  in  the 
ACL.  The  3-1  record  repre- 
sents the  best  start  by  a  North 
Quincy  football  team  in  over 
a  decade. 

Trailing  22-21,  head 
coach  Jim  Connor  had  a  de- 
cision to  make  on  second 
down  and  goal  from  the  six 
yard  hne.  Did  he  keep  his 
offense  on  the  field  and  try 
to  throw  it  into  the  end  zone, 
or  did  he  put  the  onus  on  the 


FOOTBALL 


untested  Deegan? 

"It  came  to  a  point  where 
we  played  well,  but  I  thought 
our  best  chance  to  put  points 
on  the  board  was  to  kick  a 
field  goal,"  he  said. 

The  Clippers  used  a  time 
out  to  try  and  freeze  Deegan, 
but  when  play  resumed,  his 
kick  wasn't  a  thing  of  beauty, 
but  it  was  good  enough. 

The  winning  kick  was  set 
up  by  an  impressive  drive 
that  began  at  North  Quincy 's 
own  35-yard  line.  With  seven 
minutes  to  play.  North 
Quincy  quarterback  Dennis 
Martin  (6-for-I3, 148  yards, 
one  touchdown)  and  running 
backs  Jon  Cahill,  Danny 
Jackson  and  Joe  Vailpando 
led  the  offense  down  into  the 
Falmouth  red  zone.  The  Red 
Raiders,  using  their  running 
game  as  the  primary  weapon 
chewed  up  the  clock  to  set 
up  the  climatic  kick. 

The  biggest  play  on  the 
final  drive  was  a  16-yard 
pass  completion  from  Mar- 
tin to  senior  tight  end 
Marcelius  Lee  on  third-and- 
1 1 .  The  completion  kept  the 
chains  moving  and  North 
Quincy  finished  off  the  Clip- 
pers. 

Martin  showed  his  mettle 
early  in  the  game  with  an- 
other huge  completion  early 
in  the  first  quarter.  After 
Falmouth  took  the  opening 
kickoff  75  yards  for  a  touch- 


down and  a  7-0  lead,  quiet- 
ing the  home  crowd,  the  ot- 
fense  and  Martin  responded 
in  kmd. 

After  leading  his  team 
down  to  the  Clipper  32-yard 
line,  Martin  faced  a  long 
fourth-and-17.  He  dropped 
back  in  the  pocket  and  fired 
a  bullet  to  Deegan  for  29 
yards  to  set  up  a  first-and- 
goal.  Two  straight  runs  by 
Cahill  produced  two  yards, 
but  Connor  went  back  to  him 
on  third-and-goal,  and  Cahill 
delivered  with  a  one-yard 
touchdown  plunge  to  tie  the 
game  at  7-7. 

On  Falmouth's  last  pos- 
session before  the  North 
Quincy  game-ending  drive, 
the  Clippers  went  down  the 
field  in  nine  plays  and  scored 
to  overcome  a  2 1  - 1 4  deficit. 
The  two-point  conversion 
was  good.  But  this  gusty 
North  Quincy  team  would 
not  be  denied. 

"I  didn't  think  it  could  get 
any  better  than  that  (coming 
back  to  beat  Sandwich).  Ap- 
parently it  can,"  Connor  said. 

North  Quincy  will  look  to 
run  their  winning  streak  to 
four  games  when  they  travel 
down  to  Plymouth  North  to 
take  on  the  Blue  Eagles  on 
Friday  night.  Plymouth 
North  knocked  off  Quincy 
High  School  last  Saturday 
2 1  -7  to  run  their  record  to  2- 
2,  and  2-0  in  the  Atlantic 
Coast  League.  Kick  off  is 
scheduled  for  7  p.m.

Hofbrau  Wins  Third 
Merchant's  League  Title 


The  Hofbrau,  owned  by 
Michael  Novak,  recently  won 
its  third  straight  Quincy 
Merchant's  Mcxiified  Pitch 
League  championship. 

The  Hofbrau  defeated 
Malachy's  in  Game  7  of  the 
best-of-seven  championship 
series.  The  championship 
games  were  played  under  the 
hghts  at  Kincaide  Field. 

Throughout  the  finals, 
Malachy's  received  great 
hitting  and  defense  from  Billy 
McDougall  and  Mai  Higgins, 


but  the  Hofbrau  was  just  too 
much  and  too  tough  as  pitcher 
Steve  Lannan  was  impressive 
in  each  game. 

The  Hofbrau  is  now  50-3 
over  the  past  two  seasons. 

"This  is  probably  the  best 
team  I  have  ever  assembled," 
said  skipper  George  Murphy. 
"I'm  pretty  sure  this  was  my 
last  year,  and  I  wanted  to  go 
out  on  top." 

Nelson  Feliciano,  Tommy 
Fratolillo  and  Scott  Logan 
spilt  the  three-way  tie  for  the 


MVP  of  the  playoffs,  as  they 
all  combined  with  timely 
hitting. 

"We  couldn't  just  give  it 
to  one  of  them,  as  they  all 
deserved  the  honor,"  said  tri- 
captain  Jim  Dennis. 

The  team  will  be  hosting 
acookoutonOct.  13  at  Coach 
Murphy's  house  in  Houghs 
Neck.  At  this  time.  Ward  1 
Councillor  Leo  Kelly  will 
hand  out  trophies  and  awards 
to  the  team.

2-1  Week  Gives 
North  Quincy  Momentum 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raiders  capped  off  a  2-1  week 
with  a  1  -0  shutout  of  Medford 
High  School  last  Friday.  The 
team,  which  lost  to  Plymouth 
North  4-2  on  Sept.  25,  also 
earned  a  payback  victory  over 
Brockton  High  School  on 
Sept.  27  to  run  its  overall 
record  to  3-4-2. 

"We  came  out  flat  in  the 
beginning  of  the  week  against 
Plymouth  North,  in  a  game 
we  probably  should  have 
won,"  said  head  coach  Paul 
Bregoli.  "But  the  girls 
responded  big  time  against 
Brockton  on  the  road  and 
again  last  Friday  against 
Medford.  I  am  pleased  with 
the  way  the  week  turned  out 
overall." 

Against  Medford,  North 
Quincy's  Emily  Milone 
scored  her  eighth  goal  of  the 
season  on  a  great  pass  from 
fellow  senior  Mary  Kate 
Stille  for  the  lone  goal  scored 
by  either  side.  Brittany 
Folkins  earned  the  shutout 
win  in  goal.  Folkins  had 
replaced  goalkeeper  Jesse 
Hewlett  in  net  midway 
through  the  team's  game 
against  Plymouth  North,  and 
against  Medford,  Folkins 
made  a  number  of  key  stops 
to  preserve  the  win. 

"Brittany  came  in  to 
replace  Jesse  after  she  was 
injured  against  Plymouth 
North,"  Bregoli  added.  "Jesse 
had  replaced  Siobhan  Camell 
in  net  earlier  in  the  year  after 
she  got  hurt,  but  Folkins 
really  stepped  it  up  for  the 
team  in  both  of  our  victories 
last  week." 


GIRLS'  SOCCER 


North  traveled  to 
Brockton  to  play  in  an  all- 
important  non-league  game 
and  came  away  with  a  solid 
3-2  win.  The  Boxers  had 
defeated  the  Raiders  on  their 
home  turf  2- 1  in  the  season- 
opener. 

Brockton  opened  the 
scoring  with  a  goal  early  in 
the  first  half,  but  freshman 
sweeper  Shannon  Coleman 
tied  it  at  I  - 1  with  a  blast  into 
the  upper  left-hand  comer  of 
the  net  from  thirty  yards  out 
with  eight  minutes  to  play  in 
the  half. 

The  Milone-Stille 
combination  struck  again 
with  twenty  minutes  to  play 
in  regulation  to  give  North 
the  2-1  advantage.  Brockton 
would  come  right  back  to 
knot  the  score  at  2-2  five 
minutes  later,  but  sophomore 
midfielder  Devon  McKay 
found  Milone  open  in  the 
penalty  box  late  in  the  game, 
and  Milone  drew  the  foul. 
On  the  ensuing  PK,  Milone 
buried  the  game  winner  by 
the  diving  Boxer  goalkeeper. 

"This  was  a  huge  win  for 
the  program,"  said  Bregoli. 
"They  had  come  into  our 
place  and  beat  us  in  our 
season-opener  and  we  went 
down  there  and  responded." 

Bregoli  noted  the  play  of 
seniors  Tara  McFarland  and 
Simone  Leary,  and  juniors 
Brittany  Folkins  and  Amy 
Carchedi  as  being  a  major 
reason  why  his  team  left 
Brockton  with  the  win. 

"The  star  of  the  game  was 


Leary,"  he  said.  "She  marked 
their  best  player  (Veira)  all 
game  long  and  didn't  allow 
her  to  get  anything  going. 
Veira  had  scored  both  of  their 
goals  when  we  first  played 
them.  Simone  was 
outstanding.  And  Folkins 
played  really  well  in  goal." 

The  Raiders  fell  behind  4- 
0  early  against  the  Eagles  of 
Plymouth  North  in  an 
Atlantic  Coast  League  match 
up  and  did  not  have  enough 
time  to  recover.  Junior 
midfielder  Lindsay  Reilly 
scored  off  of  an  assist  from 
Stille  to  draw  the  Raiders  to 
within  4-1  and  senior  Rene 
DiPietro  scored  her  first 
varsity  goal  late,  but  time  ran 
out  on  North  Quincy. 

"This  was  a  tough  loss, 
and  when  we  got  down  early 
it  was  hard  for  us  to  get  back 
into  the  game,"  Bregoli  said. 
'The  one  bonus  was  I  got  a 
lot  of  our  roster  some  playing 
time.  Ellen  Quinn  and  Katie 
Hemenway  both  played  solid 
games." 

At  3-4-2,  the  Raiders  are 
starting  to  pick  up  some 
momentum  as  they  hit  the 
meat  of  their  2007  schedule. 
The  team  played  against 
Sandwich  on  Monday,  and  is 
scheduled  to  play  Whitman- 
Hanson  Friday.  On  Saturday, 
North  Quincy  and  Quincy 
will  play  the  first  of  two 
games  this  fall.  The  game  is 
scheduled  to  begin  at  7  p.m. 
at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium. 


Red  Raiders  Net  Two  Wins 


The  Red  Raiders  got  their 
season  back  on  track  with 
two  victories  last  week, 
including  their  first  Atlantic 
Coast  League  win.  With  their 
2-0  week.  North  Quincy 
upped  its  overall  record  to  2- 
4-1. 

On  Friday  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium,  the 
Raiders  hosted  the  Bengals 
of  Brighton  High  School  and 
came  away  with  a  1-0  win. 
The  Raiders  started  off  the 
game  with  a  handful  of  solid 
scoring  chances  as  Dan 
Richards,  Sean  Clifford  and 
Shane  Regan  all  had  chances 
stopped  by  the  Bengal 
goalkeeper.  After  the  fast 
moving  first  minutes  of  play, 
the  game  settled  into  a 
defensive  battle  and  at 
halftime  the  score  was  0-0. 

In  the  47"'  minute, 
Richards  sent  a  shot  on  net 
from  35  yards,  which  the 
Bengal  goalkeeper  deflected 
back  into  the  box.  Daimy 
RusseU,  manning  his  position 
on  the  right  flank,  collected 
the  rebound  and  scored  from 
1 2  yards  out.  It  was  the  junior 
midfielder's  second  goal  of 
the  season. 


BOYS'  SOCCER 


North  Quincy  would  have 
a  chance  to  extend  their  lead 
in  the  70""  minute,  but  missed 
on  a  penalty  kick. 

Midfielder  Zach  O'Hara 
and  goalkeeper  Ryan  Louis 
stood  out  for  the  Raiders 
against  Brighton. 

Last  Tuesday,  the  Red 
Raiders  traveled  to  Plymouth 
North  to  play  in  an  ACL 
matchup,  and  once  again  the 
team  got  off  to  a  fast  start. 
After  Sean  Clifford's  low 
blast  from  18  yards  out  was 
stopped  in  the  first  minute  of 
play,  Shane  Regan  took  a  pass 
two  minutes  later  from  Kwasi 
Osei.  Regan  attacked  the 
right  side  of  the  net,  faked  a 
shot  and  then  calmly  put  the 
ball  into  the  open  goal  to  give 
North  an  early  1-0  lead. 

In  the  17'"  minute, 
defender  Ryan  Keaney  made 
a  nm  with  the  ball  from  his 
left  back  position  and  found 
Regan  just  outside  the  18- 
yard  mark.  Regan  broke  in 
alone  on  the  defenseless 
Eagle  goalkeeper  and  scored 


his  second  goal  of  the  game 
to  give  the  Raiders  a  2-0  lead. 

Plymouth  North  would 
score  right  before  the 
halftime  whistle  to  put  the 
score  at  2-1. 

The  score  would  remain 
2-1  throughout  the  second 
half  despite  several  solid 
scoring  chances  from  the 
Raiders.  But  in  the  78'" 
minute,  goalkeeper  Ryan 
Louis  punted  the  ball  sixty 
yards  onto  the  foot  of  Regan, 
who  broke  past  the  lone  Eagle 
defender  to  notch  his  third 
goal  of  the  contest  (and 
seventh  goal  of  the  season), 
to  bring  the  score  to  the  3-1 
final. 

Marc  DeLucia  and  Alex 
Brean  were  defensive 
standouts  for  North  Quincy 
in  their  first  league  win. 

The  Red  Raiders  and  the 
Quincy  Presidents  square  off 
this  Saturday  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  at  5  p.m. 
The  North  Quincy  girl's 
varsity  and  Quincy  girl's 
varsity  will  play  at  7  p.m.

Different  Vehicles  Require  Different  Winter  Driving  Habits 


Motorists  should  be  aware 
that  different  types  of  ve- 
hicles have  particular  oper- 
ating characteristics  that 
change  the  way  they  handle 
on  icy  or  snow-covered 
roads,  according  to  AAA 


Southern  New  England. 

"Knowing  the  different 
winter-weather  capabilities 
of  a  vehicle  can  mean  the 
difference  between  a  safe  trip 
and  serious  trouble,"  said 
John  Paul,  AAA's  Car  Doc- 


Slick  Facts  About  Oil 


It's  time  to  change  the  oil 
on  your  trusty  car  and  you 
decide  to  do  it  yourself.  You 
find  yourself  at  the  auto  parts 
store  staring  at  the  assort- 
ment of  oil  on  the  shelves, 
trying  to  decide  which  one  to 
buy  and  trying  to  decipher  all 
the  numbers  and  letters  on 
the  containers. 

Cracking  the  oil  code  re- 
quires some  basic  under- 
standing of  what  your  ve- 
hicle requires.  In  every 
owner's  manual  there  is  a 
chart  with  a  recommenda- 
tion of  oil  type  for  that  car. 

The  right  engine  oil  is  im- 
portant to  cold  weather  starts, 
says  AAA.  Oil  can  become 
thick  and  gluey  when  cold 
and  can  make  it  difficult  for 
engine  parts  to  move.  Some 
oil  grades  are  thinner  than 
others,  and  thinner  is  better 
for  winter  weather. 

The  Society  of  Automo- 
tive Engineers  (SAE)  rates 
oil  for  its  viscosity  in  both 
cold  and  hot  conditions.  The 
first  number,  usually  a  5  W  or 
1 OW,  is  and  indication  of  how 
thin  the  oil  stays  when  cold. 


The  second  number  is  an  in- 
dication of  how  thick  it  stays 
when  hot  and  usually  ranges 
from  30  to  40.  This  means 
that  5  W- 30  oil  is  thinner  than 
lOW-30  when  cold. 

AAA  advises  motorists  to 
refer  to  the  SAE  oil  rafing  to 
decide  which  oil  grade  is  best, 
and  to  look  in  the  owner's 
manual  for  the  viscosity  rec- 
ommended for  the  vehicle. 


tor.  "Motorists  should  care- 
fully read  their  owner's 
manual  for  information  on 
their  vehicle '  s  equipment  and 
handUng  characteristics." 

Front-wheel-drive  ve- 
hicles generally  handle  bet- 
ter than  rear- wheel-drive  ve- 
hicles on  slippery  roads  be- 
cause the  weight  of  the  en- 
gine is  on  the  drive  wheels, 
which  improves  traction.  The 
back  end  rear-wheel-drive 
cars  tends  to  slide  from  side- 
to-side  during  turns  on  icy 
roads. 

While  many  motorists  are 
now  driving  sport-utility  ve- 
hicles and  light  trucks  that 
can  be  excellent  for  driving 
in  difficult  conditions,  AAA 
warns  drivers  not  to  become 


over-confident. 

"Sport-utility  vehicles  and 
pickup  trucks  with  four- 
wheel-drive  make  it  easier  to 
get  moving  on  snow-covered 
roads,  but  they  don' t  stop  any 
quicker  than  other  vehicles," 
Paul  said.  "Drivers  still  need 
to  slow  down  and  keep  a  safe 
distance  behind  the  vehicle 
in  front  of  them." 

Drivers  of  pickup  trucks 
with  rear-wheel-drive  need 
to  be  especially  cautious  on 
slick  roads  because  these 
vehicles  have  very  little 
weight  over  the  wheels  that 


arc  propelling  the  vehicle  and 
arc  prone  to  rear-wheel  skids 
on  slippery  nnids. 

A  vehicle's  breaking  sys- 
tem also  determines  how 
motorists  should  operate  in 
winter  weather.  Anti-lock 
brake  systems  (ABS)  can 
provide  a  significant  stop- 
ping advantage  on  slick 
roads,  but  are  only  effective 
if  properly  used.  When  stop- 
ping a  vehicle  with  anti-lock 
brakes  in  slippery  conditions, 
motorists  should  apply  steady 
pressure  to  the  brake  pedal. 
The  ABS  will  automatically 


pump  the  brakes  to  keep  the 
wheels  from  locking  and  the 
vehicle  from  skidding. 

Drivers  of  cars  without 
ABS  should  gently  apply 
pumping  to  the  briikes  on  slip- 
pery conditions  to  avoid 
wheel  lock-up. 

Additionally,  many  new 
cars  feature  traction  control, 
which  prevents  wheel  spin 
during  acceleration.  This  is 
very  helpful  when  initially 
trying  to  get  moving  on  slip- 
pery roads.  Many  cars  are 
equipped  with  stability  con- 
trol, which  helps  prevent 
skidding.

Improving 
Bad  Posture 

Q.  In  the  past  few  years 
.  my  posture  has 
become  terrible.  My 
shoulders  have  started  to 
slump  forward,  and  my 
back  is  becoming  round- 
ed. Are  there  any  exercises 
I  can  do  to  strengthen  my 
shoulders  and  back,  and 
improve  my  posture? 

A, Yes,  there  arc  excrcis- 
•  es  you  can  perfomi  to 
strengthen  the  muscles  ot 
your  shoulders  and  back,  but 
that  may  not  improve  your 
posture.  To  improve  your 
posture,  you  first  have  to 
learn  where  the  problem  lies. 
Muscle  strength  and  bal- 
ance, stnictura!  abnomiali- 
lies  and  being  conscious  o( 
your  body  alignmeiil  are  all 
considered  uhcn  doing  a 
postural  analysis.  Discover- 
ing which  one  or  more  ol 
these  needs  to  be  corrected  is 
the  t'lrsi  slop  in  gelling  things 

straightened"  out. 

.'\  big  reason  Cor  poor  pos- 
ture among  many  people  is 
bad  habits,  'Hie  muscles  o(" 
your  back  and  shoulders  can 
be  strong,  but  if  you  don't 
control  those  muscles  and 
hold  them  in  the  proper 
position  it  can  result  in 
rounded  shoulders  and  a 
rounded  back.  ,Slouching  in 
a  chair  at  work  or  while  dri- 
ving can  develop  poor  pos- 
tural habits  that  then  trans- 
fer into  everv'day  situations. 
Being  conscious  of  keeping 
your  spine  in  proper  align- 
ment may  take  some  time 
and  a  lot  of  work. 

Use  the  following  tips  to 
help  improve  your  posture: 

•  Keep  all  of  your  muscles 
.strong,  flexible  and  in  bal- 
ance. Strong  abdominals, 
lower  back,  chest,  shoul- 
ders, back,  neck  and  legs  all 
play  a  role  in  developing 


good  posture.  If  there  is  a 
mu.scle  imbalance,  you  may 
find  it  more  difficult  to  hold 
yourself  in  proper  align- 
ment all  day. 

•  Analyze   your  posture. 
Look  in  the  mirror  (or  have 
someone  else  look  at  you) 
from  the  front  and  the  side, 
as    you    would    normally 
stand.  Look  for  your  head 
falling     forward,     rounded 
shoulders  and  back,  relaxed 
abdominals,  overly  arched 
lower   back,    hips   pushing 
forward  and  uneven  shoul- 
ders. Tr\'  to  correct  any  dis- 
crepancies   by    striving    to 
place    your   feet    shoulder- 
width  apart,  knees  slightly 
bent,  hips  in  a  neutral  posi- 
tion, abdominals  and  lower 
back    supported,   shoulders 
up  and  back  and  your  head 
not  leaning  forward.  Prac- 
tice holding  this  position  for 
as   long   as   possible.    If   it 
becomes       uncomfortable, 
find  a  middle  ground,  but 
strive  to  hold  this  position 
until  It  becomes  a  new  habit. 
•  Discomfort  and  pain  in 
your  back  or  shoulders  from 
inactivity  or  injurv'  can  keep 
you  from  trying  to  straight- 
en those  muscles  out.  if  this 
is  the  case,  seek  profession- 
al care  to  alleviate  your  pain 
and     properly     heal     your 
injury.  Also,  with  age  and 
certain  bone  conditions,  the 
compression  of  your  spine 
can  cause  rounding  at  your 
shoulders  and  back.  If  you 
feel  this  might  be  the  issue, 
consult  your  physician. 

Always  consult  a  physician 
before  beginning  an  exercise 
program.  Andrea  Renee

NON-SHRINKING  POSSIBILITIES 


^1 


When  a  tooth  is  cxiractctl. 
the  ridge  of  ah  colai  bone  that 
once  held  it  in  place  begins  to 
shrink  (re:  orb).  As  a  result,  an 
overlying  denture  will  increas- 
ingly find  itself  on  an  unstable 
foundation.  This  leads  to  the 
denture  becoming  looser  and 
looser  until  it  eventually  has 
to  be  refitted/refabricated.  For 
this  reason  alone,  many  pa- 
tients turn  to  dental  implants 
to  replace  lost  teeth.  This  pros- 
thetic device  so  closely  ap- 
proximates the  look  and  func- 
tion of  a  natural  \oo\\\  root  that 
it  minimizes  bone  resorplii>n. 
Once  the  titanium  anchor  is 
placed  in  the  bone  to  function 
much  like  a  natural  tooth  root, 
it  becomes  integrated  with  the 
bone,  thereby  minimizing 
bone  loss.  This  provides  a  sold 
anchor  for  replacement  teeth. 
Are  your  dentures  loose? 
Are  you  a  candidate  for  a  tooth 
implant?  Our  commitment  is 
to  provide  you  the  highest 


standard  i)f  personali/ed  den-

lent clinical  skills  and  state-of- 
the-art  equipment.  Establish- 
ing lasting  relationships  with 
our  patients  based  on  mutual 
trust  and  open  communication 
is  an  equally  important  factor.

program  dedicated  to  autism 
research.  Since  its  inception 
in  May  2()()()  they  have  col- 
lectively raised  tens  of  mil- 
lions ol  cloll.irs  to  fund  au-

■■  Ihey  have  c(Mne  tar  in

^aya.

cate,  respond  to  surround- 
ings, or  form  relationships 
with  others.  First  identified 
more  than  50  years  ago,  au- 
tism is  typically  diagnosed 
by  the  age  ot  two  or  three. 
Currently,  the  causes  of  au- 
tism are  unknown  and  there 
arc  no  specific  medical  treat- 
ments or  cure. 

Piiysicians  have  no  blood 
test  or  scan  that  can  dctini- 


tively  diagnose  the  disorder. 
As  such,  the  diagnosis  of 
autism  is  based  .solely  upon 
observations  of  behavior. 
Despite  increasing  national 
interest  and  high  prevalence, 
autism  research  is  one  of  the 
lowest  funded  areas  of  medi- 
cal research  by  both  public 
and  private  sources. 

"For  any  of  you  who  may 
know  my  nephew  Andrew, 
you  know  he  is  the  sweetest 
little  boy."  Erin  Nickerson 
said.  "When  Andrew  was 
first  diagnosed  with  FDD/ 
Autism,  he  wouldn't  even 
look  at  you  or  even  acknowl- 
edge you  were  in  the  room. 

"Since  September  2006, 
he  has  been  receiving  ser- 
vices through  the  Quincy 
Public  School  and  with  the 
help  of  his  family,  he  is  im- 
proving everyday.  He  is  able 
to  say  more  than  a  dozen 
words,  know  we  are  in  the 
room  and  he  is  able  to  c(mii- 
municate  with  us. 


"For  his  mom,  dad,  aunts, 
uncles  and  grandparents  this 
is  a  tremendous  miracle.  For 
me,  when  Andrew  says 
Auntie  and  tells  me  that  he 
loves  me,  I  get  very  emo- 
tional and  it  means  the  world 
to  me.  Many  children  with 
autism  will  never  be  able  to 
tell  their  parents  they  love 
them. 

Erin  Nickerson  is  seeking 
support  for  her  fundraising 
efforts  with  a  tax-deductible 
donation.  Donations,  pay- 
able to  Autism  Speaks, 
should  be  dropped  off  or 
mailed  to  Erin  Nickerson,  76 
Shoreham  St.,  Quincy,  MA 
02171-1049. 

Nickerson  also  said  "there 
is  room  on  our  fast  growing 
team  if  you  should  want  to 
walk  with  Andrew  and  his 
friends  and  family."

Spotlight  On  Health 

Talking  Blood  Clots  With  Your  Doc 


(NAPS) -Blood dots  can 
be  a  serious  concern  for  those 
who  ha\e  had  a  harmful  ckn 
in  the  past.  If  you  have  a 
history  of  ccilain  types  of 
blood  clots,  you  ha\  e  a  higher 
chance  of  getting  another 
blood  clot.  Understanding 
your  risk  of  recurrence  is 
important.  Talking  w  ith  your 
doctor  can  better  help  you 
get  on  the  right  path  to 
preventing  harmful  clots. 

Clots  normally  form  to 
help  stop  bleeding  after 
you've  been  injured.  Clots 
that  form  for  other  reasons, 
like  those  outlined  below,  can 
be  dangerous.  Many 
potentially  serious  clots 
originate  in  a  vein  in  your  leg 


or  pelvis.  They  can  cause 
serious  swelling  in  the  legs 
or  block  blood  flow  in  the 
lungs. 

About  half  the  people  who 
develop  abnomial  blood  clots 
have  an  inherited  tendency 
to  do  so.  Other  factors  that 
may  cause  harmful  clots  to 
form  include,  but  are  not 
limited  to: 

•  Surgery:  Operations  are 
one  of  the  leading  causes  of 
blood  clots.  Especially 
operations  to  replace  major 
Joints  such  as  the  hip  and 
knee. 

•  Long  periods  of 
inactivity:  In  activity  caused 
by  prolonged  bed  rest  or  long 
trips  increases  your  chances 


of  developing  a  blood  clot. 
Patients  immobilized  after 
surgery  are  more  likely  to 
develop  clots  than  those  who 
are  able  to  get  up  and  walk 
around. 

•  Certain  medical 
conditions:  For  example, 
people  who  have  had  cancer, 
a  heart  attack  or  stroke  are 
more  likely  to  develop  clots 
in  their  veins. 

•  Vein  injury:  This  may 
occur  during  certain  types  of 
surgery,  especially  hip  or 
knee  replacement  surgery.  It 
may  also  be  a  result  of  direct 
injuries  to  the  legs. 

•  Increased  levels  of 
clotting  factors  in  the  blood :

Quincy  Medical  Reserve  Corps 
Information,  Registration  Nights  Oct.  10,  25 


Quincy  Medical  Center 
will  host  information  ses- 
sions to  educate  the  commu- 
nity about  its  response  in 
case  of  a  pandemic  tlu  event 
and  other  emergency  pre- 
paredness activities  and  to 
recruit  volunteers  for  the 
Quincy  Medical  Reserve 
Corps  Wednesday.  Oct.  10 
and  Thursday,  Oct.  25  from 
6  to  8  p.m. 

The  Medical  Reserve 


Corps  is  a  group  of  volun- 
teers from  all  walks  of  life 
around  the  city  who  volun- 
teer to  help  in  case  of  a  medi- 
cal emergency  -  a  pandemic 
tlu  -  in  Quincy.  Volunteers 
are  needed  for  a  myriad  of 
tasks  from  screening  and 
registering  patients  to  an- 
swering the  phones. 

The  two  information  ses- 
sions will  be  held  at  Quincy 
Medical      Center,      114 


Whitwell  St.  Volunteers  need 
to  attend  only  one  of  the  ses- 
sions. The  sessions  are 
Wednesday,  Oct.  10  and 
Thursday,  Oct.  25  from  6  to 
8  p.m. 

Training  will  be  .sched-

increased  levels  of  blood 
clotting  substances.  Also,  the 
female  hormone  estrogen, 
which  is  found  in  birth  control 
pills  and  hormone  therapy, 
increases  clotting  factors  in 
the  blood. 

If  any  of  these  factors 
apply  to  you,  be  sure  to  talk 
to  your  doctor.  Your  doctor 
may  recommend  prevention 
and  treatment  options  based 
on  your  medical  history  and 
current  risk  factors.  She  may 
prescribe  an  over-the-counter 
drug  such  as  low-dose 
aspirin.  Aspirin  interferes 
with  the  blood's  ability  to 
clot.  Stronger  medicines, 
known  as  blood  thinners  or 
anticoagulants,  may  also  be 
prescribed.  There  are  also 
benefits  of  staying  active. 

Talking  blood  clots  with 
you  doctor  should  be  an  open 
dialogue-one  in  which  all  of 
your  concerns  are  addressed.

We  have  said  many  times  be- 
fore that  more  than  anything  else 
people  make  pre-arrangements 
because  of  those  they  love.  In  pre- 
arranging the  details  of  a  funeral, 
one  removes  from  your  family 
what  can  be  a  difficult  emotional 
burden.  You  are  able  to  set  aside  your  funeral  finan- 
cial needs  so  as  not  to  be  a  burden  later  to  your  family. 
Also,  pre-planning  allows  you  the  freedom  to  have 
your  wishes  carried  out  and  you  will  have  peace  of 
mind  knowing  that  your  family  won't  have  to  worry 
about  it  later. 

Please  feel  free  to  call  the  Deware  Funeral  Home  or 
come  in  at  any  time  to  discuss  any  questions  you  might 
have  concerning  the  pre-planning  arrangements. 
There's  no  cost  or  obligation . . .  Remember. . .  because 
we  understand  the  importance  of  pre-planning,  we  are 
glad  to  answer  any  questions  about  funeral  arrange- 
ments you  may  have. . .

ABBY  HAS  BEEN  reunited  with  her  owner  Cindy  Farnsworth,  thanks  to  a  story  in  Ihc 

Quincy  Sun.  Quiiuy  Sun  Photo/Robert  Bosworth 


Missing  Five  Weeks 


Quincy  Sun  Article 
Brings  Abby  Back  Home 


Abby  the  puppy  is  back 
home  safely  now  after 
being  missing  for  five 
weeks  and  it's  all  thanks 
to  The  Quincy  Sun, 
according  to  her  owner 
Cindy  Farnsworth. 

The  nine-pound  dog,  a 
poodle  and  Shih  Tzu  mix 
with  white  curls  and  tan 
ears,  was  returned  to 
Farnsworth  right  after  the 
Sun  hit  the  streets  last 
week. 

"I  was  absolutely 
delirious,  "  Farnsworth 
said  the  man  returning 
Abby  had  just  seen  the 
story  on  the  lost  puppy. 

Apparently,  the  man's 
father  who  had  kept  her 
for  34  days  had  fallen  in 
love  with  the  little  dog. 

Farnsworth  believes 
that  the  father  found  Abby 
just  moments  after  she 
squirmed  through  a  hole 
in  her  backyard  fence  and 
bounced  free. 

After    nearly     five 


weeks,  Farnsworth  had 
almost  given  up  hope  when 
Abby  came  home  last 
Thursday. 

"i  was  at  home  and  a 
gentleman  called  and  said. 
'What  is  your  street 
number?'"  Farnsworth  said 
that  she  was  a  little  surprised 
and  wary  of  the  question  and 
asked  why. 

He  said  he  had  her  dog, 
didn't  want  any  reward,  but 
he  did  want  to  get  the  dog 
back.  He  was  driving  a  black 
Lincoln  up  and  down  the 
street. 

Farnsworth  looked  out 
and,  sure  enough,  the  man 
took  the  little  pup  right  of  the 
back  seat  of  his  Lincoln. 

"My  father's  had  the  dog 
from  Day  One,"  the  man  told 
Farnsworth,  adding  that 
when  he  saw  the  Sun  story 
he  told  him,  "It's  time  to  bring 
him  back." 

The  father  is  apparently 
an  older  man  who  doesn't 
get  out  much,  according  to 
Farnsworth  who  promptly 


called  the  newspaper's 
office. 

"Thank  you.  Thank 
you."  Farnsworth  said 
Monday  when  she  arrived 
at  the  Sun's  Quincy 
Center  office  juggling  her 
purse,  dog  leashes,  a  silver 
Mylar  "Thank  You" 
balloon  and  a  basket  of 
strawberries,  cantaloupe 
and  chocolate  pears. 

In  tow  uas  Abby.  the 
nine-pound  poodle  mix 
who  had  disappeared  on 
August  3 1 . 

Abby's  Merrymount 
neighbors  joined  the 
search,  according  to 
Farnsworth,  who  said  that 
Abby  was  actually  very 
close  all  the  time. 

The  pup  looked  none 
the  worse  for  her 
adventure  on  Monday  as 
she  romped  around  the 
Sun  office  with  her 
two-year  old  brother 
Roman  and  another  pup, 
five-week  old  Becky. 


McGrath  Highway  Bids  Awarded 

Phase  III  Work 

To  Start  On 

Center  Concourse 


Work  is  about  to  begin  on 
Phase  HI  of  the  Qumcy  Cen- 
ter Concourse,  a  project  that 
has  been  called  critical  to  tlic 
rcvitali/ation  of  the  city's 
sometimes  lackluster  dov\  n- 
lown  business  district. 

CilOlOSO  Corporation  of 
Hyde  Park  \\as  the  success- 
ful low  bidder  on  the  $4  mil- 
lion plan  to  reconstruct  and 
streetscape  McGrath  High- 
way, connecting  Route  3A 
(Southern  Artery)  with 
downtown. 

To  ci)ver  the  cost,  the  city 
has  a  $2  million  state  Public 
Works  Economic  Develop- 
ment grant  with  additional 
funding  coming  from  Dis- 
trict Improvement  Financing 


( DIP)  honils  issued  b\  the 
city. 

The  Mayt)r's  office  said 
that  work  will  begin  iinnic- 
diately  and  lake  two  con- 
struction seasons  or  1  (S 
months  to  complete. 

Aesthetic  improvements 
include  the  burial  ot  all  ex- 
isting overhead  utility  lines 
and  the  removal  of  50  de- 
cades old  utility  poles  be- 
tween Southern  Artery  and  a 
point  about  100  feet  east  of 
Dennis  Ryan  Parkway. 

The  reconstruction  of  the 
roadway  is  designed  to  trans- 
form an  existing  urban  high- 
way into  a  safer,  pedestrian- 
friendly  .  more  attractive 
gateway  from  Southern  Ar- 


tery to  Quincs  Ceulei. 

"Anyone  who  has  mecl  ti> 
cross  this  n>a(.Kva\  kinn\s 
hou  ilaiiL'eious  jiid 
unwelcoming  it  is  lor  pedes 
tnaiis."  said  Mayor  W  illiain 
Phelaii. 

■"Our  work  will  iiiipio\e 
this  area  dramatically  tui 
pedestrians  and  motorists 
and  provide  a  link  from 
Southern  Artery  into  and 
through  Quincy  Center. 

"It  is  a  vital  component  ot 
the  Concourse  plan  and  I  am 
excited  to  announce  another 
milesit)ne  in  this  much-an- 
ticipated and  much-needed 
project."

'Cut  Out  On  Advice ' 


Clasby  Resigns  As 

COA  Director  Over 

Senior  Center  Planning 


Cuing  instances  where 
Mayor  William  Phelan  had 
cut  him  out  of  planning  for  a 
new  senior  center,  Thomas 
Clasby  resigned  Tuesday  as 
director  of  Elder  Services, 
the  $67,613-a-year  post  he 
held  for  eight  years. 

"I  have  very  mixed  emo- 
tions about  this  decision, "  he 
said,  "but  feel  strongly  that 
the  Department  of  Elder  Ser- 
vices has  been  kept  almost

What  began  23  years  ago 
as  an  emergency  shelter  in 
the  basement  of  the  former 
St.  John's  School  in  Quincy 
is  spreading  its  wings  to  of- 
fer aid  and  comfort  to  the 
homeless  all  over  southeast- 
em  Massachusetts. 

Father  Bill's  Place,  now  a 
beacon  of  hope  for  the  home- 
less in  Quincy,  last  week  an- 
nounced its  merger  with 
Mainspring  Coalition  for  the 
Homeless  of  Brockton  into 
the  newly  formed  Father 
Bills  &  MainSpring. 

The  Mainspring  Coalition 
is  the  largest  provider  of 
homeless  family  services  in 
the  Brockton  area,  serving 
more  than  1,000  adults  and 
300  children  each  year. 

The  primary  focus  of  Fa- 
ther Bills  &  MainSpring  will 
be  to  provide  services  to 
manage,  prevent  and  end 
homelessness,  not  entirely 
through  temporary  shelter 
but  through  permanent  sup- 
porn  vr  housing  as  well. 

Other  services  will  in- 
clude providing  food,  cloth- 
ing, job  training,  childcare, 
housing  subsidies  and  alco- 
hol and  drug  counseling  as 
well  as  arranging  for  college 
educations  for  motivated 
young  women  through  "One 
Familv  Scholar."

McCarthy 

"By  merging  our  two  or- 
ganizations, our  voice  as  an 
advocate  for  the  homeless 
becomes  unified  and  ampli- 
fied," said  the  Rev.  Adolph 
Wismar,  pastor  of  the 
Wollaston  Lutheran  Church 
and  chairman  of  the  board  of 
the  Coalition. 

'Together,  we  are  in  a  bet- 
ter position  to  assist  any 
homeless  individual,  child  or 
family  in  southeastern  Mas- 
sachusetts." 

"At  the  end  of  the  day,  our 
belief  is  nobody  should  be 
homeless,"  said  John 
Yazwinski,  president  and 
CEO  of  Father  Bills  & 
MainSpring. 

"Making  that  belief  a  re- 
ality is  what  fuels  the  passion 
and  commitment  of  every- 
one involved  in  our  newly 
formed  organization."

Architect  Selected  For 
Merrymount  Park  Senior  Center 


The  City's  Designer  Se- 
lection Committee  has  cho- 
sen the  architectural  firm  of 
Graham/Meus  to  help  design 
the  planned  senior  center  in 
Merrymount  Park. 

Graham/Meus  was  se- 
lected from  10  applicants  in 
the  City's  Request  for  Quali- 
fications process,  noted 
Mayor  Phelan. 

Phelan  announced  plans 
last  month  to  create  Quincy's 
first  comprehensive  senior 
center  in  Merrymount  Park. 
The  senior  center  could  fea- 
ture social  areas,  technology 
classrooms,  media  rooms,  a 
dance  studio,  bocce  courts, 
tennis  courts  and  more. 

"We  will  task  the  architect 
will  completing  a  very  pub- 
lic process,  including  a 
charette,  to  determine  the 
best  use  of  the  space  we 
have,"  said  Phelan.  "We 
have  an  absolutely  perfect 
location  in  Merrymount 


Park,  next  to  the  running 
track,  in  the  heart  of  the  city, 
in  the  middle  of  our  most 
beautiful  park.  Quincy's  se- 
niors deserve  a  place  of  their 
own  instead  of  being  relo- 
cated between  the  Fore  River 
Clubhouse,  the  park  and  rec- 
reation complex,  and  other 
makeshift  areas  in  the  city. 
This  will  be  a  place  that  they 
will  be  proud  to  call  their 
own." 

Graham/Meus  has  devel- 
oped a  number  of  senior  cen- 
ters in  Massachusetts  and 
was  selected  because  of  their 
experience  in  developing 
similar  projects,  Phelan  said. 
Principal  Gary  Graham  will 
be  the  lead  contact  on  the 
project,  another  plus  for  the 
Design  Selection  Commit- 
tee. 

"I  am  confident  Graham/ 
Meus  will  help  this  commu- 
nity develop  a  great  senior 
center,"  said  City  Solicitor 


Monica  Conyngham,  a 
member  of  the  Designer  Se- 
lection Committee.  "Gary 
Graham  and  his  team  have 
impressive  experience  and 
have  the  ability  to  work  with 
the  public  to  turn  their  ideas 
into  reality." 

The  process  of  designing 
the  senior  center  will  begin 
this  fall.  The  City  and  archi- 
tects will  be  working  with 
the  senior  community  to  de- 
sign the  plan  throughout  the 
winter  with  construction  an- 
ticipated in  the  spring  of 
2008. 

"Our  plan  is  to  open  up 
this  facility  to  the  entire  com- 
munity," Phelan  said.  "It  is  a 
great  location  and  the  exist- 
ing buildings  will  allow  us  to 
develop  a  phenomenal  senior 
center  without  unrealistic 
costs.  This  is  a  project  that 
out  city  must  do  for  the 
people  that  helped  make  our 
city  great."

A  Little  Mixed  Up 


BUSH 


KKNNKDV 


KKRRV 


Every  now  and  then  my  mind  wanders  from  Quincy 
to  Washington. 
And.  I  get  the  feeling  that  sometimes  our  leaders  get 
things  a  Httle  nii.xed  up.  W^l 

Like,  President  Bush  vetoing  a  bill 
to  inciease  linuling  for  a  program 
providing  health  insurance  coverage 
for  children  in  lower  income  lamilies. 
The  bill,  backed  b\  most  DeiiUKiats 
including  Senators  Edward  Kennedy 
and  John  Kerry,  and  many 
Republicans,  would  add  S.V'S  billion  to  the  State 

Children's  Health 
Insurance  Plan 
(SCHIP).  That 
w  i>uld  increase  the 
program's  cost  to 
S6()  billion  over  a 
five-year  period. 
Too  expensive. 
Bush  says. 

It  wc>uld  be  responsible  for  "federali/ing"  health 
care,  he  sa\  s. 

And.  beware,  its  come  to  benefit  middle-class 
families. 

Too  e.xpensiv  e? 

Too  expensive  to  help  needy  children  have  health 
care  coverage? 

But  let's  keep  spending  those  billions  and  billions  of 
dollars-heading  for  the  trillion  mark-in  Iraq.  In  a  war 
that  has  become  as  popular  as  the  one  in  Vietnam  and 
has  most  people  w  anting  our  patriotic  young  men  and 
women  home  and  out  oi  harm's  way. 

That  $35  billion  Bush  doesn't  want  to  spend  for  the 
children's  health  insurance  plan,  is  a  drop  in  the  bucket 
compared  to  what  he's  spending  in  Iraq. 

Not  to  mention  the  nearly  4.000  Americans  killed. 
And  the  approximate  27,000  wounded.  Not  little  flesh 
w  ounds.  But  the  loss  of  arms  and  legs  and  severe  mental 
wounds. 

And.  the  Iraqi  civilian  deaths  now  up  there  in  the 
many  thousands. 

If  we  ever  get  out  of  there,  left  hanging  will  be  a 
nagging  question:  what  did  we  really  accomplish  there? 
Was  it  worth  the  price  in  lives  and  money? 

The  SCHIP  program  w  as  begun  in  1 997,  designed  to 
provide  health  care  insurance  to  children  in  families 
earning  too  much  to  qualify  for  Medicaid  but  not 
enough  to  pay  for  private  insurance. 

Supporters  of  the  bill-both  Democrats  and 
Republicans-are  trying  to  put  enough  votes  together  to 


over-ride  Bush's  veto.  At  last  reported  they  needed  15 
more. 

We  don't  have  much  trouble  finding  billions  of 
dollars  to  spread  around  the  world. 

We  give  generously  to  the  world  needy  and  victims 
of  catastrophes.  We  have  money  for  our  allies. 

Aren't  needy  children  here  worthy  of  that  help,  too? 

And  what  about  the  deserving  kids  trying  to  go  to 
college.  Why  can't  we  make  it  financially  easier  for 
them  to  get  there? 

There  are  scholarships  and  financial  aid  available 
from  colleges,  veterans,  labor,  fraternal,  and  civic 
groups. 

But  with  the  cost  of  tuition  escalating,  this  help- 
though  most  appreciated-is  not  enough.  Why  can't  the 
government  do  more? 

Every  deserving  kid  should  be  guaranteed  the  right 
to  a  college  education.  It  would  be  one  of  our  greatest 
investments.  This  country's  future  is  in  the  hands  of  our 
young  people. 

But  Washington  seems  to  be  slow  on  the  draw  when 
it  comes  to  helping  worthy  causes  but  quick  to  roll  out 
the  old  pork  barrel. 

Like  that  multi-million  dollar  highway  built  a  few 
years  ago  down  south  that  went  nowhere.  But  it  created 
jobs  and  no  doubt  helped  get  a  local  congressman  re- 
elected. 

And  then  the  waste. 

There  was  that  super-duper  outhouse  in  Pennsylvania 
that  the  Park  Service  ordered.  It  cost  nearly  $800,000 
including  $  1 3.000  glorified  toilet  bowls.  Wonder  what 
the  toilet  tissue  cost? 

And  there  were  those  little  things,  like  screws. 
According  to  a  report  by  the  Defense  Department's 
inspector  general,  the  government  was  paying  over  $75 
each  for  screws  you  could  pick  up  for  something  like  57 
cents  at  your  local  hardware  store. 

And  what  about  those  electrical  devices  that  go 
around  $46  but  for  which  the  government  was  paying 
something  like  $714. 

We  blow  all  kinds  of  money.  Money  that  could  go  to 
helping  those  in  need. 

Think  of  what  one  or  two  of  those  billions  spent  in 
Iraq  could  do  to  advance  research  in  cancer,  heart  and 
Alzheimer's  disease,  multiple  sclerosis  and  muscular 
dystrophy. 

And  education. 

We  spend  too  much  time  and  money  fighting 
questionable  wars  and  not  enough  on  helping  our  own 
in  this  country. 

I  think  I'll  wander  right  back  to  Quincy.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


^ 


THIS  IS  A  1934  postcard  view  of  the  water  tower  and 
reservoir  on  the  top  of  Third  Hill,  also  known  as  Forbes 
Hill,  in  Wollaston.  The  reservoir  was  first  dug  here  in 
the  late  19th  century  to  provide  water  for  fire  fighting. 
New  homes  were  being  built  in  the  Wollaston  Heights 
subdivision  on  the  adjacent  Wollaston  Hill  and  there 
was  no  way  to  get  water  up  there  for  emergencies.  The 
Metropolitan  Water  Commission  later  took  over  the  site 
I  and  built  the  larger  reservoir  shown  here  that  held  five 


million  gallons  of  water.  In  1903,  they  built  the  water 
tower  that  held  another  330,000  gallons.  There  are  spec- 
tacular views  from  the  top  of  the  tower.  During  World 
War  II,  the  Civil  Air  Patrol  used  the  tower  as  an  obser- 
vation deck.  It  now  supports  an  array  of  antennas.  The 
reservoir  was  filled  in  over  50  years  ago  and  is  now 
used  for  playing  fields.  To  contact  Tom  Calvin,  e-mail

Jimmy  Liang's  Record  Of 
Commitment  Speaks  For  Itself 


I  have  had  the  pleasure  of 
living  in  Quincy  the  last  25 
years. 

Jimmy  Liang  was  19  and 
just  out  of  North  Quincy 
High  School  when  I  met  him 
about  10  years  ago. 

At  the  time  Jimmy,  and 
fellow  North  Quincy  High 
School  graduate  Peter  Tae, 
both  hard  working  restaura- 
teurs extraordinaire,  were 
opening  Quincy's  First  Japa- 
nese Restaurant  on  Hancock 
Street  and  Wollaston. 

One  of  the  many  ideals 
that  makes  our  country  so 
unique  and  great  are  the  op- 
portunities that  exist  for  any- 
one who  dreams  and  dares  to 
be  an  entrepreneur,  risk  taker 
and  innovator.  If  vou  want  to 


give  it  a  go,  you  can  put  your 
hard-earned  money,  time, 
energy,  heart  and  soul  into 
starting  and  running  a  small 
business.  It's  no  easy  task 
starting,  running  and  con- 
tinuing to  run  a  small  busi- 
ness successfully.  It  takes 
some  doing. 

Jimmy,  Peter,  their  fine 
families,  associates  and  em- 
ployees will  soon  be  open- 
ing their  fourth  fine  restau- 
rant in  our  city. 

Where  there  were  once 
dark  empty  storefronts  are 
now  successful,  vibrant  busi- 
nesses that  have  created  jobs, 
supported  our  commercial 
tax  base  and  improved  and 
enhanced  our  business  dis- 
tricts  in   North   Quincy, 


Wollaston  and  downtown 
Quincy. 

Jimmy  Liang's  record  of 
commitment  to  our  city 
speaks  for  itself.  It  is  one  of 
hard  work  and  dedication  to 
this  community  since  he 
graduated  from  North 
Quincy  High  School. 

We  are  extremely  fortu- 
nate to  have  so  many  fine, 
dedicated,  hardworking  indi- 
viduals in  our  great  city  who 
are  willing  to  ser\  e  our  fami- 
lies and  community  as  vol- 
unteers, public  servants, 
elected  officials,  political 
candidates  and  operators  of 
small  businesses. 

Whether  we  agree  with 
them  or  not,  whether  we  vote 
for  them  or  not.  our  elected 


officials  and  all  those  brave 
souls  running  for  political 
office  are  all  united  in  a  com- 
mon purpose  and  commit- 
ment to  the  continued 
progress  for  our  city  and  well 
being  of  its  citizens. 

In  all  the  upcoming  con- 
tested local  elections  on  Nov. 
6.  we  can  agree  to  disagree, 
without  being  too  disagree- 
able, because  the  next  day  on 
Nov,  7.  we  will  continue  to 
be  neighbors,  friends,  fami- 
lies and  residents  of  this 
unique,  diverse  and  historic 
City  of  Quincy.  Massachu- 
setts. It  IS  a  great  place.  We 
can  all  agree  on  that.

Flying  Chinese  Communist  Flag  Is  An  Insult 


Normally  I'm  a  very  op- 
timistic person,  but  it  seems 
that  lately  my  attitude,  as  re- 
flected in  letters  I've  penned 
to  The  Sun,  have  been  more 
on  the  negative  side,  which 
is  probably  fitting  since  the 
mayoral  race  lately  is  so 
negative  in  tone. 

My  concern  this  time  is  in 
regards  to  Sal  Giarratani's 
last  letter  about  flying  the 
Communist  Chinese  Flag  in 
Wollaston.  1  am  in  total 


agreement  with  Mr. 
Giarratani's  premise  that  it  is 
a  good  thing  to  have  the 
growing  Asian  population  in 
Quincy  become  more  in- 
volved in  local  politics.  I 
support  Victor  Ng  in  his  bid 
for  councillor  at-Large. 

But  one  phrase  in  Mr. 
Giarratani's  letter  gave  me 
serious  pause.  He  wrote, 
'The  flying  of  the  People's 
Republic  of  China  flag  is  less 
an  insult  to  America  and

more  an  embarrassment  to 
the. ..Asian  population." 
Sorry  Sal.  but  the  flying  of 
the  Communist  flag  any- 
where in  .Amenca  is  an  out- 
and-out  insult  to  all  Ameri- 
cans. Have  we  forgotten  Ko- 
rea and  Vietnam  and  the  tons 
of  money,  weapons,  troops 
and  support  that  the  Chinese 
Communist  party  poured 
into  those  countries,  result- 
ing in  the  death  or  serious 
wounding  of  so  many 
American  fighting  men  and 
women?  Or  the  current  sup- 
port they  are  supplying  to 
Iran?  1  haven't  and  no 
Quincy  voter  should! 

I  understand  that  Jimmy 
Liang,  running  for  the  job  of 
Ward  6  councillor,  was  allo- 
cated in  the  organization, 
which  raises  the  flag.  Com- 
munist China  remains  an  en- 


emy of  the  I'mled  States  de- 
spite the  money  made  from 
trade  with  them.  (.And 
America  seems  to  be  getting 
the  short  end  of  that  deal  too. 
as  the  recent  recall  ot  so 
many  toy.s  has  shown.  1 1  can- 
not support  anyone  who  con- 
dones tyranny  over  the  free- 
dom and  democracy  of 
America.  Take  down  the 
flag.  Jimmy  and  represent 
the  freedom  loving  Asian 
community  as  Americans, 
these  good  people  deserve 
nothing  less.  Otherwise  you 
do  not  deserve  to  represent 
Ward  6  or  any  other  part  of 
this  great  city. 

As  for  you,  Sal,  well 
Dorchester's  gain  is 
Quincy's  loss.  You'll  be 
missed.

Trancis  X.  "Beffotti 


October  12,  2007 


Dear  Friend, 


As  a  taxpayer  and  voter  m  Qu.ncy  for  more  than  fifty  years,  I  would  l.ke  to 
explain  some  of  the  reasons  why  I  am  voting  for  Mayor  William  Phelan. 

Mayor  Phelan  is  doing  an  outstanding  job.  He  is  the  best  Quincy  Mayor 
in  my  memory. 

After  inheriting  a  fiscal  situation  so  out  of  control  that  the  State  refused  to 
certify  the  tax  rate,  Mayor  Phelan  went  on  to  balance  the  budget,  improve  the 
bond  ratings  and  hold  the  line  on  property  taxes.  As  a  result,  our  tax  increases  have 
been  the  lowest  of  any  city  m  Massachusetts  tor  the  past  three  years. 

As  a  former  Massachusetts  Attorney  General  for  twelve  vears.  1  know  first 
hand  that  crime  and  public  safety  are  and  should  be  matters  ot  paramount  concern 
to  everyone.  It  is  no  small  achievement  that  the  FBI  now  ranks  Quincv  the  second 
safest  city  in  the  State. 

Mavor  Phelan  understands  the  debt  we  owe  to  our  ^enu>r  citizen^  who  built 
this  Citv.  He  ha.  opened  200  unit>  tor  ^enior>  M  ^quantum  Coirden^  and  i>  ^^^n^ 
nmg  a  major  new  senior  center.

Who  Is  Being  Unreasonable? 


Regarding  your  lead  story 
Oct.  4  "'Councillors  Take  Is- 
sue With  Mayor  On  State 
Health  Insurance  Status":  So 
now  the  City  Councillors  are 
experiencing  the  "Full 
Phelan  Treatment"  regarding 
the  health  insurance/re-elee- 
lion  maneuvers  ol  the 
Mayor!  Now  they  have  a  bet- 
ter understaiuiing  ol  uhat 
City  eniplo\ees  ha\e  been 
dealing  with  all  along.  Or 
■■m>t  dealing  with."  since 
success!  u  I  negotiations 
seems  to  be  a  pn>blem  lor 
this  administration. 

The  City  Council  has 
been  working  diligently  and 
appropriate!)  on  the  health 
insurance  and  (ilC  issue.  So 
ha\e  the  Cit\"s  unions.  Yet 
both  groups  have  fell  the 
sling  o'i  Mayoral  comments 
recently  on  this  issue.  Why.^ 

First,  both  groups  u  ant  to 
caretullx  siud\  what  is  pro- 
posed. This  is  not  encour- 
aged by  Ma\or  Phelan.  He 
has  studied  the  idea,  and  he 


has  determined  tor  everyone 
involved  what  is  good  for 
them;  and  he  has  determined 
w  hat  everyone  should  do.  He 
is  the  "daddy-mayor"  Imag- 
ine the  nerve  of  City  Coun- 
cillors  questioning  the 
Mayor!  And  imagine  those 
unions  demanding  to  study 
in  full,  and  educate  their 
memberships  in  full,  about 
the  Miiyoi  "s  plans'  F>er\i>ne 
should  capitulate,  and 
meekly  accede  to  this  .Ma\ or. 
It  they  do.  tliev  are  "coi>pera- 
ti\e.  ■  If  the\  don"t  they  are 
"costing  the  taxpayers."  and 
iecei\e  tele\ised  and  cam- 
paign speech  criticism. 

The  Council  obviousl\ 
does  not  oppose  the  CiIC  in- 
surance plan:  thes  want  to 
study  it  and  make  sure  that 
it"s  in  the  best  interest  of  all 
in\olved.  The  employee 
unions  don't  oppose  the  state 
Cj!C  plan;  most  don't  know 
enough  about  it  yet  to  have 
decided  whether  it  has  any 
advantages  for  them.  Insur- 


ance is  complicated;  so 
should  we. ..should 

anyone. .  .simply  accept  what 
William  J.  Phelan  says  we 
should  accept','  We  see  the 
deck  in  front  of  us;  but  ex- 
cuse us  if  we  cut  the  cards. 
Isn't  that  reasonable  behav- 
ior'.' Who  is  being  unreason- 
able .'  Wlu>  is  bullying 
wlH>m ' 

Ihe  Citv  employees  be- 
lieve that  we  should  do 
things  in  mi  orderly  manner: 
nol  juinii  when  the  Mayor 
demands.  And  the  first  order 
of  business  is  for  the  City  to 
settle  the  employment  con- 
tracts that  remain  unsettled, 
well  over  a  year  after  they 
expired.  There  remain  at 
least  a  do/en  contracts  un- 
settled. We  should  get  our 
City's  hou.se  in  order;  and 
then  deal  rationally  with 
health  insurance  and  the 
CilC.  We  refuse  to  be  bullied. 
Paul  J.  Phillips 
President,  Quincy 
Education  Association 


Other  Ordinances  Not  Being  Enforced 


This  is  in  response  to  the 
problem  the  .McGunigles' 
are  ha\  ing  re'  dogs  roaming 
the  streets,  defecating  on 
people's  property,  owners' 
not  picking  up  after  them, 
etc. 

This  is  a  citywide  prob- 
lem. There  is  an  ordinance  on 
the  books  regarding  this 
problem  and  it  should  be  en- 
forced. However,  there  are 
ordinances  on  the  books  for 
other  things  that  I  think  are 
just  as  important. 

We  have  been  complain- 
ing for  years  about  cars 
speeding  up  and  down  our 
street.  Complain,  complain, 
and  complain.  Nothing  done. 
Finally  had  stop  signs  in- 
stalled. For  every  car  that 
slows  down  (not  stop),  si.x 
cars  go  through  them  like 
they  are  nol  even  there. 
Complain,  complain,  and 


complain.  Still  nothing  done. 

Also,  there  is  an  ordi- 
nance about  cars  parking 
overnight  on  city  streets. 
Why  do  people  who  have 
driveways  and  off-street 
parking  refuse  to  use  them? 
They  park  on  the  street  all 
night,  every  night.  They  take 
the  spots  of  the  people  who 
do  not  ha\  e  off-street  park- 
ing, and  those  residents  have 
to  scramble  at  night  for  a 
spot.  Complain,  complain, 
and  complain.  Nothing  done. 

There  is  also  an  ordinance 
about  not  putting  your  trash 
out  w  ithin  24  hours  of  your 
scheduled  pick  up  day  yet 
every  day,  no  matter  where 
you  go.  there  is  trash  sitting 
on  the  sidewalks,  put  out 
anytime  people  feel  like  put- 
ting it  out.  That  leads  to  the 
trash  pickers  ripping  open 


the  bags  looking  for  cans  and 
bottles  and  leaving  the  mess 
they  make,  which  doesn't  get 
picked  up  by  anyone.  That 
leads  to  animals  like  cats, 
dogs,  skunks  and  so  on  get- 
ting into  the  trash.  Complain, 
complain,  and  complain. 
Nothing  done. 

If  these  laws  are  on  the 
books,  why  aren't  they  en- 
forced? It  is  obvious  the 
"Neighborhood  Handbook" 
didn't  work.  Maybe  if  these 
laws  are  enforced  with  tick- 
ets, people  will  think  twice. 

The  city  is  always  look- 
ing for  more  revenue.  This 
can  lead  to  nothing  but  in- 
creased $$$  for  the  city, 
which  could  help  keep  prop- 
erty taxes  down  instead  of 
going  up.

Wants  To  Reach  More  Retirees 


Moynihan  Has  Not  Decided  On  Insurance  Vote 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

The  issue  of  health 
insurance  got  even  more 
confusing  for  the  city's  2500 
retirees  after  a  Sept.  26  letter 
from  Mayor  William  Phelan, 
according  to  Stephen 
Moynihan,  president  of  the 
Quincy  Retirees  Association 
(QRA). 

As  president  and  founder 
of  the  QRA,  Moynihan  was 
selected  as  the  designee  in 
considering  the  state's  health 
insurance  program  for  the 
city's  retirees. 

Moynihan  said  this  week 
that  Phelan's  letter  implies 
that  Moynihan  will  use  his 
vote  to  transfer  the  retirees' 
health  insurance  to  the  state 
health  program,  known  as  the 
G.I.C.  (General  Insurance 
Commission). 

"That  is  not  accurate, 
"said  Moynihan  who  has 
repeatedly  stated  that  the 
health  insurance  issue 
requires  considerable  study 
and  negotiation.  He  said  he 
is  not  against  joining  the 
G.I.C.  but  the  issue  deserves 
research  and  no  decision  has 
been  made. 

In  addition,  Moynihan 
said  that  he's  unable  to  get  a 
list  of  the  city's  retirees  or 
have  his  letters  on  the 
insurance  program  mailed  to 
all  the  city's  retirees  through 


STEPHEN  MOYNIHAN 

City  Hall. 

On  Monday,  Moynihan 
described  dozens  of 
telephone  calls  that  he  has 
received  from  confused 
retirees  who  received 
Phelan's  letter. 

In  an  Oct.  1  response 
hand-delivered  to  Phelan, 
Moynihan  writes,  "I  have 
received  many  calls 
concerning  this  (insurance) 
matter  and  would  appreciate 
assistance  from  your  office 
to  help  clarify  any 
misconceptions  drawn  from 
your  letter  that  my  vote  on 
the  matter  has  been 
committed. 

"I  intend  to  negotiate  in 
good  faith  on  this  very 
important  issue  that  affects 
both  active  and  retired 
employees  and  their  families. 
Hopefully,  my  vote  will  take 
into  consideration  all  those 

POLITICAL  ADVERTISEMENT 


affected  by  the  possible 
changes." 

In  a  post-script  directed  at 
the  retirees.  Moynihan  states, 
"there  are  advantages  and 
disadvantages  in  transferring 
coverage  to  the  State  and 
should  be  understood  by  all 
parties  before  a  vote  is  taken. 

"The  Retirees  have  a  great 
deal  at  stake  if  something  is 
rushed  through  as  it  cannot 
be  changed  easily.  These 
changes  will  affect  active 
employees  who  will  be 
retiring  in  the  future." 

Moynihan  wants  to  clarify 
the  health  insurance  issue  for 
the  retirees  but  he  said  that 
City  Hall  officials  have 
refused  his  repeated  requests 
to  access  the  retirees'  mailing 
list. 

"I  was  told  that  due  to 
'Privacy'  they  could  not 
provide  me  with  labels" 
Moynihan  writes  in  an 
October  1  note  to  the  1400 
members  of  the  QRA. 

Moynihan's  current 
mailing  list  includes  only 
about  half  of  the  city's 
retirees  or  the  1 400  who  have 
joined  the  QRA.  However, 
he  was  selected  to  represent 
all  retirees  during  the  health 
msurance  discussions  and  his 
vote  will  impact  all  retirees. 

.Moynihan  can  not  contact 
the  1 100  retirees  who  Jo  not 


belong   to  the  QRA  even      ihem      on      the      Public      (PHC).

"I  like  the  opportunity  to 
make  the  dress,"  Elias  said, 
noting  that  brides  in  Abigail's 
day  did  not  go  out  and  buy  a 
weddmg  dress  and  weddings 
were  very  simple.  "They 
wore  their  best  dress." 

"I'm  going  to  try  to  make 
it  a  sack  dress,"  Klias  said, 
describing  the  style  o\ 
Abigails  era  w  hich  featured 
material  tlowing  like  a  cape

alter  their  wedding. 

NU>st  w  eddings  took  place 
in  the  lamih  home,  according 
to  hlias.  It  is  likely  that 
.Abigail  and  .Adams  were 
married  in  Re\ .  Smith's 
parsonage. 

Few  details  are  known 
about  the  actual  weddinu. 


This  reenactment  is  intended 
as  a  celebration  to  spark 
interest  in  the  Adams  history, 
rather  than  an  actual 
representation. 

Actor  Michael  Lepage 
who  frequently  acts  as 
historical  figures  on  stage 
will  portray  John  Adams.  He 
will  be  wearing  a  replica  of 
Adams'  wedding  day  vest 
sewn  by  Henry  Cook  of 
Randolph. 

Cook  has  completed 
do/ens  o\'  other  replications 
t\M  the  National  Park  Ser\  ice 
and  the  United  .States  Army, 
including  full  outfits  for 
Cieorge  Washington 

displays. 

Some  400  Weymouth 
elementary  school  students 
will  line  the  streets  as  Abigail 
heads  to  the  First  Church  in 
Weymouth.  17  Church  St., 
Weymouth,  w  here  her  father. 
Reverend  Smith,  will 
officiate  at  the  vows. 

"We're  hoping  fora  sunny 


day,"  .said  Marianne  Peak. 
Superintendent,  Adams 
National  Historical  Park, 
Quincy.  Peak  believes  that 
engaging  the  young  children 
in  the  pageant  offers  a 
wonderful  educational 
opportunity,  particularly  for 
the  young  girls  to  leam  about 
Abigail  Smith  Adams. 

Peak  is  also  delighted  with 
the  joint  effort  by  the  Abigail 
Adams  Society,  the  park 
service  and  the  church. 

Once  the  vows  arc 
concluded,  the  w  edding  party 
and  guests  will  travel  to  the 
ct>uple's  home,  the  John 
Quincy  Adams  Birthplace, 
141  Franklin  Street,  Quincy. 
There,  they  will  offer  a  toast 
to  the  new  couple  at  I  p.m. 

Like  all  of  the  earlier 
celebrations,  the  toast  will  be 
a  simple  affair.

Says  City  Ignored  Request  For  Details 

Logue  Wants  Concourse 

Demo  Halted  Until 
State  Reviews  Completed 


Governor  Patrick  In  Quincy  Tonight 


The  first  in  a  series  of 
public  events  \\n  the  Readi- 
ness Project  with  Governor 
Deval  Patrick  will  take  place 
todav  (Oct.  1 1 )  from  6:30  to 


8  p. 111.  at  the  Merrymount  El- 
ementary' School.  4  Agawani 
Rd.,  Qumcy. 

This  is  an  open  meeting. 
Governor  Patrick's  will  dis- 
cuss his  Administration's 


state-wide  education  strate- 
gic planning  initiative.  Thos 
attending  may  express  their 
thoughts  and  ideas  on  edu- 
cation with  him. 


The  City  of  Quincy  ig- 
nored a  request  for  detailed 
information  from  one  of  the 
state  agencies  reviewing  the 
Quincy  Center  Concourse 
project,  and  instead  began 
bulldozing  buildings  in 
downtown  Quincy  prior  to 
the  review's  completion, 
councillor  at-Large  candi- 
date Jennifer  McCauley 
I.ogue  says. 

Logue.  who  has  reviewed 
correspondence  between  the 
City  of  Quincy  and  the  Mas- 
sachusetts Historical  Com- 
mission, said  that  in  a  letter 
dated  June  14,  2007  to  City 
Planning  Director  Dennis 
Harrington,  the  Commission 
identified  numerous  histori- 
cally significant  buildings 
that  fall  within  the  city's  pro- 
posed urban  renewal  district. 

The  letter  called  upon  the 
city  to  provide  extensive  ad- 
ditional materials,  including 
"detailed  and  overall 
streetscape  photographs, 
keyed  to  a  map. ..clearly 
printed,  large-format,  high- 
resolution  photographs  of  the 
buildings  proposed  for 
demolition,  keyed  to  a  sketch 
map"  and  "plans,  elevations 


and  perspective  views"  of 
the  Hancock  Parking  Lot  and 
Ross  Parking  Garage,  both 
of  which  the  city  plans  to 
demolish. 

"This  letter  was  sent  to 
City  Hall  on  June  1 4-yet  just 
days  later,  on  June  19.  the 
city  went  ahead  and  began 
bulldozing  buildings  for  the 
Concourse  without  provid- 
ing any  of  the  requested  in- 
formation." Logue  said.  "It 
appears  as  though  the  city  is 
determined  to  bulldoze  as 
much  of  Quincy  Center  as 
possible  in  order  to  prevent 
state  agencies  such  as  Mass. 
Historical  Commission  from 
exercising  their  proper  over- 
sight of  this  project." 

Even  more  disturbing, 
Logue  said,  is  the  fact  that 
the  city  has  moved  forward 
with  the  Concourse  project  at 
all,  given  a  1996  adverse 
finding  against  the  project  by 
the  Mass.  Historical  Com- 
mission. 

Logue  said  that  in  a 
June  13,  1996  letter  to  the 
state  Secretary  of  Environ- 
mental Affairs,  MHC  Direc- 
tor Judith  McDonough  wrote 
of  the  Concourse: 

POLITICAL  ADVERTISEMENT 


"I  have  determined  that 
the  project,  as  currently  pro- 
posed, constitutes  an  adverse 
effect  that  would  diminish 
the  integrity  of  the  historic 
district's  design,  setting,  ma- 
terials, feeling  and  associa- 
tion. MHC  staff  request  the 
opportunity  to  review  more 
detailed  project  plans  as  they 
become  available. .in  addi- 
tion. MHC  staff  request  the 
opportunity  to  consult  with 
pro)  e  c  t 
proponents... regarding  al- 
ternatives that  could  elimi- 
nate, minimize  or  mitigate 
the  adverse  effect  of  this 
project...." 

Logue  also  rebuked  the 
city  for  providing  "inaccu- 
rate information"  to  the  state 
as  justification  for  the  Con- 
course Project.  She  pointed 
to  the  Executive  Summary  of 
the  city's  "Quincy  Center 
Urban  Revitalization  District 
Plan."  which  states:  "Unfor- 
tunately, during  the  last  35 
years,  only  three  new  devel- 
opments-the  Stop  &  Shop 
building  and  garage,  the

Phelan  Committee  Launches 
Community  Endorsement  Videos 


The  Committee  to  Elect 
Mayor  William  Phelan  has 
launched  a  new  Web  site  fea- 
ture of  community  endorse- 
ment videos. 

The  short  clips  highlight 
Quincy  residents  who  are 
supporting  Phelan's  candi- 
dacy for  re-election. 

The  Web  site  is 
www.votemayorphelan.org. 
The  short  clips  will  feature 
residents  from  throughout 
Quincy 's  neighborhoods  ex- 
plaining why  they  are  back- 
ing Phelan's  campaign. 


The  first  video  features  PJ 
Foley  of  Houghs  Neck. 
Foley  is  a  community  activ- 
ist and  nationally  recognized 
environmentalist.  He  has 
been  awarded  an  Environ- 
mental Protection  Agency 
"Environmental  Hero" 
award  for  his  work  to  restore 
marshlands  throughout 
Quincy.  He  is  employed  by 
Verizon. 

"I  am  overwhelmed  by 
the  full  breath  of  support  I 
have  received  from  a  vast 
array    of   people,"    said 


Phelan.  "I  appreciate  the  sup- 
port and  help  of  the  thou- 
sands of  people  that  have 
joined  my  campaign  to  keep 
Quincy  moving  in  the  right 
direction." 

"I  appreciate  the  innova- 
tion of  our  web  team  in  tell- 
ing the  story  of  our  cam- 
paign," Phelan  said.  "This 
new  method  will  provide 
visitors  with  a  chance  to  hear 
from  citizens,  not  just  the 
candidate,  about  why  they 
should  vote  for  Bill  Phelan. 
1  appreciate  the  time  of  all  of 
our  volunteers."

jacent to  the  Quincy  Center 
URD  " 

"That  is  just  patently 
false,"  Logue  said.  "During 
the  past  25-30  years,  down- 
town Quincy  has  seen  the 
development  of  the  Quincy 
Fair  Mall,  the  Granite  Shop- 
ping Pla/a,  the  Greenleaf 
Building  addition,  extensive 
redevelopments  of  the 
Remick's  and  New  England 
Bank  buildings,  the  Hancock 
Park  senior  facility  and  most 
recently,  the  construction  of 


the  Monroe  Place  building 
and  luxury  condos  at  the  cor- 
ner oi  Washington  St.  and 
McCirath  Highway.  During 
the  same  period,  Quincy 
Center  alst)  saw  the  construc- 
tion of  a  new  City  Hall,  new 
police  station,  new  hospital 
and  new  public  library. 

"But  apparently,  the  only 
way  the  city  can  justify  this 
unnecessary  project  is  to  pt)r- 
tray  Quincy  Center  as  being 
in  a  state  of  utter  stagnation 
and  economic  freefall," 
Logue  said.  "And  it's  simply 
not  true." 

Logue  called  upon  the 


city  to  immediately  halt  any 
further  Concourse  demoli- 
tions or  business  displace- 
ments pending  completion  of 
all  necessary  reviews  by 
state  agencies  charged  with 
the  project's  oversight. 

"It's  bad  enough  when 
City  Hall  won't  listen  to  the 
many  Quincy  residents  who 
oppose  the  Concourse," 
Logue  said.  "But  to  provide 
false  information  to  a  state 
agency-and  then  disregard 
that  agency's  oversight  au- 
thority-demonstrates a 
shocking  arrogance  and  dis- 
dain for  public  due  process."

The  project  also  will  in-

"People  will  see  signifi-

Commissioner  Steve 


O'Donnell. 

"Traffic  calming  mea- 
sures such  as  land  narrowing, 
pedestrian  improvements 
with  center  islands  and  new 
crosswalks,  a  landscaped 
median  and  buried  utilities 
will  make  this  road  signifi- 
cantly improved. 

"This  stretch  will  com-

Moynihan  Has  Not  Decided 
On  Insurance  Vote

by  Moynihan  represents  lO'J 
of  the  required  liVi  majorilx 
needed  to  join  the  state  pl.in. 

M(\vnihan  said  he 
ct>ntacted  Rc^berta  Ket\, 
Personnel  DiiectiM  lor  the 
city.  Ket\  IS  sending  a 
mailing  out  to  retirees  on  the 
slate's  insurance  program. 

Moynihan  would  like  his 
letter  to  he  included  in  that 
mailing  and  said  that  he  will 
provide  the  labels,  the 
postage  and  volunteers 
necessary  to  insert  his  letter 


in  the  nuiilmg. 

Ket\  said  the  decision  has 
iiol  bcenmaileaslcMncluding

Similarl),  Phelan's 
Director  Operations.  I)a\id 
Nhirph),  said  this  week  that 
the  nia\or  is  committed  to 
helping  Moynihan  inform  the 
city's  retirees  on  the  health 
insurance  issue. 

Htn\e\er,  Murphy,  like 
Ket\,  was  non-committal 
when  asked  if  Moi\ni ban's 
letter  would  be  included  in 
the  city's  mailing  on  health 
insurance. 

"Tome,  it's  disingenuous 
o\'  the  mayor."  said  Ralph 
White,  President  of  the 
Retired  State.  Countv  and 


Municipal  Hmployees 
Association  oi 

Massachusetts. 

White  selected  Mi\vnihan 
as  the  city's  designee  because 
he  is  the  founder  and 
president  of  the  QR.A.  White 
said  Moynihan  has  the  same 
legitimate  reason  to  contact 
all  the  retirees  as  Phelan  does. 

"It's  a  one-sided 
situation,"  said  White  adding 
that  the  QRA  is  a  "bona  fide 
retiree  organi/ation"  and 
needs  the  same  opportunity 
to  reach  all  the  retirees  as 
Phelan  does. 


Still  learning!  In  research- 
ing this  article,  I  discovered 
that  Fire  Prevention  Week  is 
proclaimed  by  the  President 
of  the  United  States  to  mark 
the  anniversary  of  the  Great 
Chicago  Fire  of  1871. 

Fire  Prevention  Week 
lakes  place  this  week.  Octo- 
ber 7'"  through  the  13'".  This 
year  the  theme  is  "Practice 
Your  Escape  Plan."  The  fo- 
cus is  on  planning  and  prac- 
ticing an  escape  from  your 
home  in  the  event  of  a  fire. 

Home  fires  killed  3,030 
people  in  2005,  roughly  eight 
people  every  day,  while  only 
23'/r  of  hou.seholds  have  ac- 
tually developed  and  prac- 
ticed a  home  tire  escape  plan. 
The  time  to  de\elop  an  es- 
cape plan  isn't  during  an  ac- 
tual emergency.  Smoke  ob- 
scures visibility  while  it  can 
easily  confuse  and  affect  our

escape  plan  should  be  an  au- 
tomatic response. 

Plan  a  home  fire  escape 
route:  Locate  all  windows, 
halls  and  stairways  that  can 
be  used  to  exit  the  building. 
Make  certain  that  door  locks 
and  window  latches  are  func- 
tional, working  properly. 
Make  certain  that  windows 
are  not  painted  shut  or  too 
difficult  to  open.  Security 
bars,  if  present,  should  have 
a  quick  release  feature. 

Have  two  ways  out  of 
each  room.  Crawl  low  he- 
neath  smoke:  Where  heat 
and  smoke  tend  to  rise,  the 
freshest  coolest  air  will  be 
down  low  by  the  floor.  Roll 
out  of  bed  onto  the  floor  and 
crawl  to  a  primary  exit  and 
if  unusable,  your  predeter- 
mined secondary  exits.  A 
secondary  exit  can  be  an- 
other doorway,  stairway  or 
window.  If  you  must  go  to  a 
window,  don't  jump;  open 
the  window  and  signal  for 
help. 

Choose  a  meeting  place: 
Choose  a  spot  outside  and 
away  from  the  home  where 


all  family  members  can  meet 
and  confirm  each  other's 
safety.  How  tragic  would  it 
be  to  have  all  family  mem- 
bers escape  and  have  some- 
one re-enter  not  knowing  all 
are  safe  and  well?  Designate 
a  meeting  spot  to  confirm 
full  evacuation. 

Call  911  from  a 
neighbor's  house. 

Practice,  practice,  and 
practice:  Discuss  your  plan 
with  family  members  so  that 
everyone  understands  their 
options.  Review  your  plan 
occasionally,  conduct  an  ac- 
tual drill  and  do  so  during  the 
evening  hours  as  well  simu- 
lating an  evacuation  while  all 
are  in  their  bedrooms.  Will 
someone  need  assistance? 
Then  predetermine  a  plan  to 
help  that  family  member. 

Remember,  when  the 
alarm  sounds:  Leave  the 
building;  get  out  and  stay 
out;  go  to  the  family  meet- 
ing place;  dial  911  from  a 
neighbor's  house.  Wait  at  the 
meeting  place  for  the  fire 
department  to  arrive  and  let 
then  know  that  everyone  is 
safe.

HAMMERTOES 


Hammertoe  is  the  abnor- 
mal bending  of  the  toe  joints, 
which  can  occur  in  all  the  toes 
except  the  big  one.  Symptoms 
include  pain  in  the  toe  joint, 
especially  when  wearing 
shoes,  as  well  as  visible  corns 
and  calluses.  Tendon  or  muscle 
imbalance  is  a  common  cause 
for  hammertoe,  as  are  ill-fitting 
shoes  that  cramp  the  toes. 
Hammertoes  usually  start  out 
fairly  mild  but  get  worse  with 
time.  Treatment  in  the  early 
stages  is  easy  and  effective, 
but  the  condition  requires  sur- 
gery if  left  untreated  too  long. 
Hammertoe  will  never  resolve 
on  its  own.  Your  podiatrist  can 
trim  and/or  pad  any  resulting 
corns  or  calluses,  prescribe  and 
orthotic  device,  or  recommend 
different  footwear  to  treat  ham- 
mertoe. 

If  you  are  the  victim  of  ham- 
mertoes, you  don't  have  to  let  it 


get  you  down.  The  relief  you 
are  seeking  is  available  at 
QUINCYI^EDICALCENTER. 
Our  facilities  are  fully  equipped 
with  leading  edge  technology 
for  your  care  and  comfort,  and 
our  staff  is  particularly  skilled 
in  helping  with  all  kinds  of  foot 
conditions,  such  as  joint  prob- 
lems, bunions,  nail  and  skin 
conditions,  sports  injuries,  dia- 
betic issues,  and  hereditary 
concerns.  For  an  appointment 
for  complete  podiatric  care  for 
adults  and  children,  please  call 
781-986-3668.  Office  hours 
are  also  available  at  999  North 
Main  St.,  in  the  Randolph 
Medical  Office  Building,  and 
the  Milton  Medical  Building  in 
Suite  221 

P.S:  Doctors  commonly 
recommend  that  people  with 
hammertoe  take  ibuprofen  for 
the  pain  and  discomfort  of  the 
condition.

Thomas  Slowe  Process 
Engineer  With  P  &  G 


Quincy "s  Tht>mas  Slowe 
recently  moved  to  Wake 
Forest,  NC  where  he  will  be 
working  as  a  Process 
Engineer  with  Proctor  & 
Gamble  Co,  Henderson,  NC. 
He  is  the  son  of  Tom  and

A  graduate  of  Quincy 
High  School  in  2000.  Slowe 
participated  in   the   first

led  to  his  interest  in 
engineering  and  his  studies 
at  Massaehu.setts  Institute  of 
Technology  where  he 
graduated  in  2004. 

During  his  work  for 
Gillette  Co.  in  South  Boston,

Coordinator  and  Engineering 


Mentor.  Slowe  was  also  an 
Operational  Partner  for  the

Shore  Umpires  Association. 


Await  Second  Autopsy  Results 
In  Quincy  Soldier's  Death 


The  ashes  of  Army  Spe- 
cialist  Ciara  Durkin  of 
Houghs  Neck  have  been  bur- 
ied in  Quincy,  Ireland  and 
Arlington  National  Cem- 
etery but  the  mystery  sur- 
rounding her  death  in  Af- 
ghanistan remains. 

A  second  independent 
autopsy  was  performed  on 
her  body  in  Massachusetts 
Sunday  but  Justine  Griffin, 
spokesman  for  the  Durkin 
family,  results  would  not  be 
available  for  a  couple  of 
weeks. 

And  even  then,  she  said, 
we  don't  expect  them  to  be 
released. 

The  body  of  Durkin,  30, 


CIARA  M.  DURKIN 

a  financial  specialist,  was 
found  Sept.  28  with  one  bul- 
let in  her  head  on  grounds  of 
the  secure  Bagram  Air  Base 
in  Afghanistan. 

Funeral  services  were 
held  Saturday  at  St.  John  the 
Baptist  Church  in  Quincy 
with  Sen.  John  Kerry,  Gov. 
Deval  Patrick  and  Mayor 


William  Phelan  in  atten- 
dance. 

It  was  Kerry's  office  that 
arranged  the  second  autopsy 
at  the  request  of  the  Durkin 
family,  to  whom  their  sister 
had  hinted  at  problems  she 
was  having  on  the  base. 

Ciara's  sister,  Aine 
Durkin  from  Ireland,  read  a 
poem,  first  in  Gaelic,  then  in 
English,  ending  with  the 
word  "our  Ciara  with  the 
wild  red  hair." 

Her  brother.  Pierce,  deliv- 
ered the  eulogy  and  several 
hundred  people  lined  School 
Street  as  her  coffin  was  car- 
ried by  with  full  military 
honors. 


Phelan  Names  Gommittee 
To  Study  City's  OPEB 


Mayor  William  J.  Phelan 
has  named  a  committee  to 
take  a  detailed  look  at  the 
city's  Other  Post  Employ- 
mem  Benefits  (OPEB)  un- 
lunded  liability  report. 

Committee  members  are 
Richard  Fitzpatrick.  City 
Auditor;  Cinder  McNerney, 
First  Southwest;  Councillor 
John  Keenan,  City  Council 
Finance  Chairman;  Marie 
Brinkmann,  City  Benefits 
Coordinator;  Liz  Allard, 
Mayor's  Office  and  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Insurance  Advi- 
sory Board. 

Phelan  said  this  is  in  re- 
sponse to  a  new  accounting 
standard.  Government  Ac- 
counting Standards  Board's 
Statement  45  (GASB  45). 
GASB  45  requires  all  mu- 
nicipalities in  the  Common- 
wealth with  revenues  of 
$  1 00  million  or  more  to  con- 
duct an  actuarial  valuation  of 
their  OPEB  as  of  July  1, 
2007. 

The  city  hired  Buck  Con- 


sultants to  conduct  the  actu- 
arial. 

Fitzpatrick  said,  "If  the 
city  were  to  remain  under  the 
current  metlu)d  oi  "pay-as- 
you-go.'  our  unfunded  liabil- 
ity wi^uld  total  $435  million. 
With  a  prefundcd  plan  in 
place  the  unfunded  liability 
would  total  ,$214  million.  1 
applaud  Mayor  Phelan  for 
recognizing  the  importance 
of  this  new  reporting  mecha- 
nism." 

According  to  GASB  45, 
by  the  end  of  fiscal  year 
2008,  the  city  must  have  a 
comprehensive  plan  in  place 
to  fund  this  liability  in  the 
future. 

"I  am  pleased  that  we  are 
ahead  of  the  curve  on  this 
very  important  issue,"  said 
Phelan.  "Most  communities 
in  Massachusetts  are  in  the 
beginning  stages  of  their  ac- 
tuarial study.  Without  a  plan 
in  place  the  city  may  experi- 
ence an  adverse  effect  on  the 


city's  bond  rating.  Credit  rat- 
ing companies  want  to  see 
that  governments  are  taking 
OPEB  liabilities  seriously.  A 
downgrade  of  the  city's  bond 
ratiny  has  the  potential  to  be 
detrimental  to  the  future  of

"We  have  worked  hard  to

and  will  create  a  realistic  and

Cardinal  Delivers  'Theology  On  Tap' 
At  Bad  Abbotts  Pub  Here 


When  Father  Michael 
Drea,  a  newly  minted  priest 
at  St.  Ann's  Church  in 
Wollaston,  wanted  to  reach 
out  to  young  adult  Catholics, 
he  knew  just  where  to  go  — 
an  Irish  pub  in  Quincy  called 
Bad  Abbotts. 

in  the  second  of  six  fall 
sessions  last  night  (Wednes- 
day), at  7  p.m..  the  "six-pack 
series,"  as  it  has  come  to  be 
called,  drew  the  superstar  of 
them  all,  the  Cardinal  him- 
self, Sean  O'Malley,  to  lead 
the  discussion. 

"Theology  on  Tap,"  to 
give  it  its  formal  title,  began 
25  years  ago  in  the  Chicago 
archdiocese  to  bring  young 
Catholics  who  had  fallen 
away  back  to  the  church  and 
give  those  still  involved  a 
chance  to  learn  more  in  a 
comfortable  atmosphere. 

And  what  is  more  com- 
fortable than  an  Irish  pub' 

Father  Drea,  newly  or- 
dained, arrived  at  St.  Ann's 
in  2004,  ready  to  meet  his 
own  generation  on  their  own 


terms  in  the  places  where 
they  feel  most  at  ease. 

"Growing  up  in 
Whitman,  1  knew  so  many 
young  adults  in  the  Quincy 
area,"  he  said.  "There  were 
a  lot  of  programs  for  the  kids 
and  the  elderly  but  the  20  to 
30  age  group  was  forgotten." 

Scouting  the  bars  in 
Quincy,  Father  Drea  came 
upon  Bad  Abbotts  as  the 
ideal  place  with  a  welcom- 
ing atmosphere  —  "the  Irish 
pub  feel.  If  you've  ever  been 
to  an  Irish  pub  you  know  the 
family  atmosphere." 

Peter  Kerr,  owner  of  Bad 
Abbotts,  was  all  for  it  and 
the  first  session  was  held  last 
June  with  the  first  speaker 
and  discussion  leader  Bishop 
John  Dooher,  the  South  Re- 
gional Auxiliary  Bishop. 

Another  visiting  theolo- 
gian was  Sister  Olga,  the 
campus  minister  at  Boston 
University,  an  Iraqi  nun. 

"I  met  the  Cardinal  at  a 
meeting  one  day  and  I  asked 
him  if  he  would  like  to  come

"Why  a  candidate  for 
mayor  and  the  Council  on 
Aging  directt>r  would  oppose 
fultillmg  the  citizen's  prom- 
ise to  our  seniors  is 
anybody's  guess." 

Das  id  Murphy,  spokes- 
man for  the  mayor,  said 
when  the  city  got  the  land 
park  land  back  from  the  fed- 
eral government  in  1978,  one 
of  the  conditions  was  that  the 
city  put  a  senior  center  on  the 
spot. 

"The  mayor  was  unaware 
of  that  until  a  few  years  ago," 
said  Murphy. 

Clasby,  43,  the  Squantum 
native  who  was  appointed 
director  by  then-Mayor 
James  Sheets  in  1999  and 
reappointed  six  times  by 
Phelan,  said  he  raised  serious 
concerns  about  locating  the 
center  in  Merrymount  Park 
.several  months  ago  but  his 
fears  were  never  e\en  con- 
sidered. 

The  Merrymount  area,  he 
said,  is  already  crowded  with 
Adams  Field,  the  Ruth  Gor- 
don Amphitheater,  a  planned 
track  facility  and  soccer 
fields  that  are  bound  to  ere 
ate  traffic  and  parking  prob- 
lems when  two  or  more 
events  coincide. 

"Disagreements  happen," 
he  said,  "and  they  can  and 
should  be  discussed.  But  you 
can't  have  those  discussions 
if  the  disagreements  aren't 


allowed  to  be  raised. 

"We  only  have  cmic 
chance  li>  ilo  a  senior  center 
the  right  way  and  1  do  not 
belie\e  we" re  heading  in  that 
direction  right  now." 

Clasby  said  his  small  role 
in  planning  for  the  senior 
center  included  touring  fa- 
cilities for  the  elderly  in  other 
communities  and  making  a 
series  of  recommendations 
to  the  mayor's  office. 

"From  what  I've  been  al- 
lowed to  see  of  current 
plans,"  he  said,  "none  of 
those  recommendations 
were  considered." 

He  added  he  had  not 
taken  part  in  any  formal 
planning  sessions  and  when 
his  office  reviewed  other 
sites  for  the  center  around 
Quincy.  its  recommenda- 
tions were  ignored. 

"When  the  project  was 
brought  up  tor  a  budget  hear- 
ing at  the  City  Ci>uncil,"  he 
said.  "1  was  forced  to  discuss 
and  defend  it  without  recei\- 
ing  any  information  from  the 
mayor's  oltico. 

"And  this  isn't  just  about 
my  involvement.  The  board 
of  directors  for  the  Council 
on  Aging  should  be  much 
more  heavily  involved." 

Clasby  called  the  decision 
to  leave  the  director's  job  a 
"painful"  one,  adding  that  he 
will  miss  working  with  the 
thousands  of  seniors  the  de- 


partment serves  each  year. 

Among  his  major  acctim- 
plishments  in  the  last  eight 
years  he  listed  the  Hlder  Ser- 
\ices  Plan,  a  blueprint  to 
identify  the  needs  ot  seniors 
and  de\elop  assiK'iated  pro- 
grams. 

He  said  he  is  also  proud 
of  his  constant  lobbying  for 
increased  transportation  pro- 
grams and  new  vans,  coor- 
dinating the  annual  Senior 
Olympics,  creating  new  ser- 
vices and  keeping  seniors 
informed  on  major  issues. 

Programs  started  under 
his  tenure  included  monthly 
hearing  screening,  monthly 
podiatry  visits,  weekly  blood 
pressure  screening,  a 
Scrabble  club,  a  bridge  club, 
a  monthly  reverse  mortgage 
explanation,  bone  density 
tests,  trips  to  Foxwoods  and 
Mohegan  Sun  and  the  FIder 
I'pdate  cable  TV  show. 

"I've  made  many  great 
friends  and  1  know  I'll  ha\e 
great  relationships  uitli 
Quincy  seniors."  ho  said, 
"This  has  been  one  o'i  the 
most  rewarding  experiences 
o'i  my  life." 

Clashy's  Tuesday  resig- 
nation was  effective  imme- 
diately but  he  told  Phelan  he 
was  still  available  to  help  his 
successor  with  the  transition 
and  "make  sure  the  .services 
provided  by  the  department 
continue  without  problems."

Readers  lo  the 
Rescue 

Q,  Recently  in  your  col- 
•  umn,  you  responded 
to  a  question  from  Pat  in 
Atlanta  regarding  difficul- 
ty in  identifying  the  burner 
controls  on  stoves.  It  is  a 
Meli-known  problem,  but 
there  is  a  simple  solution. 
Burners  are  different  in 
si/e.  Pull  off  the  plastic 
knobs  of  the  smaller  ones 
and  get  a  handyman  to  file 
them  down  until  they  are 
visibly  and  tactilely  differ- 
ent, even  in  dim  light. 
Range  manufacturers 

should  have  thought  of 
this.  —  H.T.H.,  Orlando, 
Fla. 

A,  Many  thanks!  Smaller 
•  burner  controls  corre- 
sponding to  the  smaller 
burners  on  a  stove  is  a  very 
practical  idea.  Come  to  think 
of  it,  filing  the  controls  into  a 
different  shape  (like  a  square 
rather  than  a  circle),  would 
make  them  instantly  identi- 
fiable. You're  right,  range 
manufacturers    should    put 


more  thought  into  this. 

*** 

Q,  In  answer  to  "Vir- 
•  ginia,"  the  person 
who  was  having  trouble 
cleaning  hard  water  spots 
from  her  window.s,  there  is 
a  simple  way  to  clean  these 
spots  from  your  window 
panes.  Believe  me,  I  tried 
everything  on  mine.  Then 
in  desperation  I  got  a  can 
of  WD-40,  sprayed  a  little 
on  and  presto,  clean  as  a 
whistle.  I  did  use  window 
cleaner  to  get  the  oily  film 
off  —  or  a  little  warm 
water  and  soap  will  do  it, 
too.  Hope  this  helps  —

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Thursday.  Sept.  27.  at  approximately  3  p.m., 
Detecti\e  Brian  Coen.  working  in  plain  clothes  with 
other  Detectives,  observed  a  male  walking  on  Townhill 
Street  tt>w  aids  Centre  Street,  then  cross  over  to  Station 
Street  and  out  i>f  view. 

The  male  party  then 
reappeared  talking  on  his 
cell  phone,  looking  intoeach 
car  as  it  passed  by.  Since  it 
ap[x\ired  that  he  was  waiting 
for  someone  and  acting 
suspicious,  the  detectives 
kept  him  under  surveillance. 

The  detectives  took  up 
\arious  observation  spots 
and  watched  the  male  walk 
to  the  intersection  of  Centre 

Street  and  West  Street,  stopping  at  the  tralTic  signal 
control  bo.\.  At  this  time,  the  male  reached  into  his  pocket 
and  started  writing  all  over  the  bo.\  with  the  marker.  The 
male  (suspect)  then  put  the  marker  away  and  headed  to 
Townhill  Street. 

Detective  Coen  radioed  Detectives  William  O'Brien 
and  Fd  Ryan  that  he  was  going  over  to  the  suspect  to 
place  him  under  arrest.  As  the  detectives  approached  the 
suspect.  Detective  Coen  identified  himself  as  a  police 
officer  and  informed  the  suspect  he  was  under  iurest  for 
defacing  city  property. 

After  being  read  and  explained  Miranda  Rights,  the 
suspect  said.  "For  what,  for  writing  what?"  After  being 
told  that  the  detectives  were  watching  him,  the  suspect 
wa!i,asked  what  he  wrote.  He  replied,  "T.S.I.".  When 
asked  what  that  stood  for,  the  suspect  said,  "The  Slick 
Individuals." 

When  asked  if  T.S.I,  were  considered  a  gang,  the 
suspect  said,  "No,  just  me  and  a  couple  of  friends  from 
Connecticut." 

Detective  Coen  reached  into  the  suspect's  pocket  and 
took  into  evidence  a  large  permanent  paint  "Molotow 
High  Quality  Paint  Marker."  At  this  time,  the  suspect 
blurted  out,  "I  got  some  weed  too."  Detective  Coen 
reached  into  the  same  pocket  and  came  out  with  a  plastic 
sandwich  bag  containing  marijuana.  Inside  the  bag  were 
three  individual  zip  lock  bags  that  also  contained 
marijuana,  as  well  as  some  empty  bags. 

Based  on  their  experience,  the  detectives  believed  that 
the  suspect  wrapped  the  marijuana  for  distribution  -  to 
sell. 

A  further  search  of  the  suspect  showed  that  he  had 
$  1 66  in  various  denominations  in  his  wallet.  The  suspect 
was  transported  to  the  station  for  booking. 

Detective  Coen  took  photographs  of  the  damage  to  the 
traffic  control  box  and  then  retraced  the  steps  the  suspect 
took  to  look  for  additional  graffiti.  At  the  comer  of 
Centre  and  Station  Street.  Detective  Coen  took 
photographs  of  a  mailbox  that  had  the  same  markings  as 
those  that  the  suspect  wrote  on  the  signal  box.  The 
suspect,  a  20  year-old  Unionville,  Connecticut  resident, 
was  charged  with  "Possession  of  Class  D"  with  the  Intent 
to  Distribute  and  two  felony  counts  ot  "Wantonly 
Injuring  Real  Property." 

The  money  found  on  the  suspect  was  seized  pending 
civil  I'orfciture  since  it  is  believed  that  it  came  from 
illegal  drug  sales.  The  marijuana  was  sent  U>  the  lab  tor 
tcsiing  and  iho  marker  placed  into  evidence  lor  court 
purposes. 

Nice  Work'  (No  photo  could  be  submitteti  since  the 
ollicers  invoUed  are  detectives  and  wish  to  remain 
laceless. 

LPS  Scam:  Be  wary  ol  an  overseas  companv  using 
the  name  ot  UPS  attempting  to  gel  \our  personal 
information. 

The  ruse  is  simple;  the  caliei  identifies  himsell  as  .i 
L'PS  agent  trymg  to  send  you  a  package,  but  they  need 
your  date  of  birth  and  social  security  number.  These 
calls  can  be  live  or  come  as  pre-recorded  instructions. 
The  return  number  on  the  recording  is  listed  to  Best 
Courier  Service  out  of  the  United  Kingdom. 

The  message  instructs  you  to  leave  your  name,  date 
of  birth  and  social  security  number  and  you  will  soon  be 
contacted.  Since  these  scam  artists  are  seekmg  social 
security  numbers,  this  scam  is  focused  on  the  United 
States.  Bottom  line:  do  not  give  out  personal  information 
to  anyone  you  do  not  know. 

As  far  as  UPS  goes,  they  use  tracking  numbers  along 
with  name  and  address  only.  If  you  are  unsure,  call  UPS 
directly.  They  will  be  able  to  tell  you  if  there  is  truly  a 
package  waiting  to  be  delivered  to  you.

Nutrition  In  A  Nutshell 


FDA:  Use  The  Nutrition  Facts 
Label  to  Make  Healthy  Food  Choices 


(NAPS)  -  Since  the  late 
l^XOs,  aclull  obesity  has 
steadily  increased  lolhe  point 
at  which  more  than  65  percent 
ol  all  Americans  are  now 
overweight  anil  over  30 
percent  are  obese.  Also,  IS 
percent  ol  chiklren  anil 
adolescents  ages  6  lo  19  are 
overweight-nearly  double  the 
rate  ol  two  decades  ago. 
Prevention  of  obesity  is  based 
on  managing  energy  balance. 

The  Food  and  Drug 
Administration  says  a  great 
tool  to  help  manage  calorie 
intake  is  the  Nutrition  lacls 

Parent  Topics 


I  ,abei  on  food  packages.  The 
label  has  a  lot  ot  useful 
Milormalion,  especially  the 
number  of  calories  and 
serving  sizes  in  your  food. 

When  you  select  or 
compare  loods,  see  what  the 
label  says  about  the  serving 
si/e  and  calories.  Ask 
yourself  these  important 
questions: 

What  is  the  serving  si/e? 

How  many  servings  are  in 
the  container.' 

Many  packages  hold  more 
than  one  serving.  When  you 
consume  multiple  servings. 


it  is  easy  to  cat  or  drink  much 
more  than  you  realize.  This 
can  affect  your  calorie  intake 
( and  over  time,  your  weight ). 
If  you  eat  and  drink  more 
calories  than  you  burn,  you 
will  gain  weight.  To  achieve 
or  maintain  a  healthy  weight, 
be  mindful  of  calories  when 
comparing  like  products. 

How  many  calories  are 
high  or  low  for  a  serving? 
This  depends  on  your  caloric 
goal  for  the  day  and  how  you 
balance  your  food  choices 
during  the  day.  In  general, 
though,  follow  this  guide  to 
size  up  calories  in  a  single 


serving.

Talking  To  Your  Teen  About  Sensitive  Health  Issues 


(NAPS)  -  It  can  be  a 
challenge  talking  to  your  teen 
about  some  health  issues-and 
Dr.  Andrea  Marks,  a 
specialist  in  adolescent 
medicine,  wants  parents  to 
benefit  from  her  years  of 
experience. 

■'There's  no  'one  right 
way"  to  do  it;  you  need  to 
(iiul  u  hal  u iM ks  for  you  and 
your  teen."  says  Marks. 
"Kiii>\\  that  ihe  toughest 
words  are  typically  the  first 
words.  Be  prepared,  know 
how  to  open,  and  you'll  be 
on  your  way. " 

Dr.  Marks  gives  the 
example  oi  urinary  tract 
infections ( I ! TIs ), or  w hat  she 
likes  to  call  "the  next  big 
talk"  alter  the  birds  and  the 
bees  discussion.  To  initiate  a 
discussion  with  your 
daughter,  she  says: 

•  Broach  it  Broadly:  Start 
by  talking  about  general 
hygiene,  especially  hygiene 
of  the  genital  area.  Stress  that 
it's  important  to  cleanse  the 
genital  area  every  day  and  to 
wipe  from  front  to  back  after 
going  to  the  bathroom. 

•  Respect  Her  Maturity: 

Gi\  e  her  credit  for  w  hat  she 

likely  know  s,  but  make  sure 

she  knows  that  she  must 

always  visit  a  doctor  if  she 

suspects  something  is  w  rong. 

When  it  comes  to  I 'TIs.  stress 

that    only    a   doctor   can 

prescribe  an  antibiotic  locure 

the  infection.  If  left  untreated, 

a  t'TI  initially  limited  to  the 

bladder  can  develop  into  a 

much  more  serious  infection. 

Most  important,  let  her  know 

she  can  always  talk  to  you. 

•  Follow  Her  Lead:  A 
UTI  "first  talk"  may  take 
place  after  your  teen  tells  you 
she's  worried  that  she  is 
urinating  too  often,  that 
urination  is  painful,  and  that 
she  has  irritation  in  her  genital 
area.  Know  what  kinds  of 


products  can  provide  urinary 
pain  relief  so  you  can  help 
her  quickly. 

"Widely  available, 
urinary  specific  OTG  pain 
relievers  like  AZO  Standard- 
can  work  in  as  little  as  20 
minutes,"  says  Marks. 

In  general,  all-purpose 
pain  reliexers  are  not 
effecli\e  treatments  oi  I'TI- 
spccific  pain  and.  therelore, 
not  icciMnmended. 

Marks  says  the  three  most 
important  points  to  revisit 
when  talking  to  your  daughter 
are  taking  urinary  tract  health 
seriously,  knowing  the  facts 
and  taking  preventive  steps 
such  as  urination  after

Getting  Started 
at  a  Fitness  Center 

Q.  I  just  joined  a  fitness 
•  club.  As  a  new  mem- 
ber, what  should  be  my 
first  step  toward  getting 
started? 

A,  Congratulations  on 
•  the  decision  to  make 
your  health  a  priority.  A  fit- 
ness club  can  offer  many 
resources  to  help  you  on 
your  fitness  journey.  How 
you  use  your  club  member- 
ship after  enrollment  can 
determine  the  strides  you 
make  toward  your  fitness 
goals.  Joining  a  fitness  club 
can  be  a  great  commitment 
of  money,  but  more  impor- 
tantly, it  needs  to  be  an  even 
greater  commitment  to 
yourself  and  your  health. 

Uncertainty  about  where 
to  begin  after  joining  a  fit- 
ness facility  can  sabotage 
your  desire  to  get  fit.  First, 
take  advantage  of  any  initial 
sessions  offered  to  you  to 
meet  with  a  fitness  team 
member.  Most  fitness  clubs 
will  offer  one  to  three  ses- 
sions with  a  fitness  instruc- 
tor to  help  you  feel  comfort- 
able in  the  club,  introduce 
you  to  equipment  and  class- 
es available,  and  to  show 
you  a  safe  and  basic  exer- 
cise routine.  This  can  make 
your  transition  easier. 

Before  the  fitness  instruc- 
tor, who  should  be  a  certified 
personal  trainer,  designs  a 
program  for  you,  he  or  she 
will  discuss  your  exercise 
and  medical  history  to  safely 
design  a  program  for  you. 
You  also  should  be  asked  to 
speak  with  your  physician 
about  any  medical  condi- 
tions before  beginning  an 
exercise  program,  and  to 
obtain  clearance  to  partici- 
pate in  all  forms  of  exercise. 
If  you  are  given  any  restric- 
tions or  guidelines  to  follow, 
be  sure  to  mention  them  to 
your  fitness  professional  to 


ensure  you're  staying  within 
your  guidelines. 

If  your  gym  does  not  offer 
introductory  sessions  with  a 
personal  trainer,  hiring  a  cer- 
tified personal  trainer  to 
guide  you  in  establishing  and 
reaching  your  fimess  goals 
can  be  a  great  investment. 
Not  only  can  the  trainer  help 
you  develop  a  goal-oriented 
and  effective  training  pro- 
gram, but  he  or  she  will  also 
make  sure  your  program  is 
safe.  Providing  motivation 
and  accountability  is  another 
great  reason  to  hire  a  certi- 
fied personal  trainer. 

Try  different  classes  and 
programs  that  might  seem 
like  fun.  Go  early  and  ask 
the  instructor  about  the 
structure  of  the  class. 
Explain  that  you  are  new  and 
wUl  need  him  or  her  to  keep 
an  eye  on  you.  Don't  be 
afraid  to  ask  questions,  the 
instructors  are  there  to  help. 

In  order  to  get  the  most  out 
of  any  fitness  facility,  you 
must  USE  its  resources  and 
programs.  The  best  fitness 
facility  in  the  world  cannot 
help  you  if  you  do  not  take 
the  initiative  to  walk  inside 
and  begin  to  work.  Your  suc- 
cess will  depend  greatly  on 
how  comfortable  you  feel  in 
the  fitness  center  If  you  feel 
cortfused  by  equipment, 
indifferent  about  your  exer- 
cise program's  structure  or 
uneasy  about  the  overall 
environment  of  the  club, 
you'll  find  reasons  why  you 
shouldn't  go.  Secure  your 
success  by  finding  something 
you  enjoy,  and  get  started. 

Always  consult  a  physician 
before  beginning  an  exercise 
program.  Andrea  Renee

ditioning as  well  as  thera- 
peutic recreation.

GUM  DISEASE  AND  TONGUE  CANCER 

Dentists  may  focus  on  the      your  risk  for  dental  disease  if 


health  of  teeth,  but  the  health 
of  all  oral  tissues  is  also  a  con- 
cern. Therefore,  it  comes  as  big 
news  to  dentists  and  male  pa- 
tients alike  when  a  study 
showed  that  chronic  gum  dis- 
ease could  increa.se  a  man's  risk 
for  tongue  cancer  whether  or 
not  he  smokes.  Researchers 
thing  that  periodontal  viruses 
and  bacteria  may  be  toxic  to 
surrounding  cells  and  cause 
changes  that  pave  the  way  for 
oral  cancer.  Inflammation  may 
also  play  a  role.  Because  this 
as.sociation  between  periodon- 
titis (gum  disease)  and  tongue 
cancer  is  based  on  preliminary 
evidence,  more  research  needs 
to  be  conducted  to  confirm  the 
link.  In  the  meantime,  gum  dis- 
ease prevention  is  a  worthy  pur- 
suit in  and  of  itself. 

The  best  time  to  see  your 
dentist  is  before  you  have  a 
prc^lem.  You'll  greatly  reduce 


you  have  regular  checkups  and 
practice  meticulous  home  care. 
The  most  valuable  service  we 
can  provide  is  a  thorough  and 
complete  examination.  Virtually 
all-dental  problems  -  decay, 
gum  disease,  jaw  joint  difficul- 
ties and  loose  teeth  -  are  easily 
detected  in  their  early  stages  and 
can  be  treated  most  economi- 
cally and  comfortably  at  that 
time.  We're  located  at  44 
Greenleaf  Street,  where  we're 
currently  accepting  new  pa- 
tients. Please  call  6 1 7479-6220 
to  schedule  an  appointment.  We

ology with  a  fully  trained  and 
qualified  anesthesiologist.  Visit

toms include  difficulty  and/or

North  Blanks 
Quincy,  4-0 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  second  game  of  the 
Quincy/North  Quincy  soccer 
double-header  last  Saturday 
night  at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium  between  the  Lady 
Presidents  and  the  Lady  Red 
Raiders  remained  a  0-0  tie 
until  there  was  ten  minutes 
left  in  the  first  half. 

But  that  is  when  North 
Quincy  senior  forward  Mary 
Kate  Stille  took  a  pass  from 
senior  midfielder  Kasey 
O'Connell  and  dribbled  her 
way  past  two  President 
defenders  to  score  her  fourth 
goal  of  the  season  and  gave 
North  Quincy  an  early  1-0 
that  they  would  not 
relinquish.  North  would  later 
score  three  more  times  in 
route  to  the  4-0  victory. 

With  the  win,  the  Red 
Raiders  kept  alive  their  post 
season  dreams  for  another 
day.  The  victory  moved  their 
overall  record  to  4-6-2. 
Quincy,  playing  with  heart 
against  the  Red  Raiders,  has 
yet  to  record  a  victory  this 
season. 

"I  thought  the  team  played 
OK,"  said  NQ  head  coach 
Paul  Bregoli.  "1  don't  want 
to  say  that  the  game  was  a 
'trap  game,'  but  the  girls 
know  that  from  here  on  out 
every  point  we  can  earn  will 
go  far  in  determining  if  we 
get  back  to  the  post  season." 

North  Quincy  needs  19 
total  points  to  qualify  for  the 
post  season  tournament  for 
the  eleventh  straight  .season. 
After  the  victory  over 
Quincy,  the  Red  Raiders  have 
earned  ten  points  through 
their  first  1 2  games. 

"It  was  not  our  best  effort, 
but  a  win  is  a  win  and  we 
need  to  keep  picking  up  those 
points,"  added  Bregoli.  "We 
have  a  huge  league  game 
against  Plymouth  North  on 
Tuesday  (Oct.  9)  before  we 
host  Marshfield  High  School 
on  Thursday  (Oct.  11)  at 
home.  If  we  really  want  a 
chance  to  continue  playing 
when  the  regular  season  ends, 
we  need  to  at  least  gain  a  tie 
against  Plymouth  North." 

The  cross-city  game  got 
underway  immediately  after 


GIRLS' 
SOCCER 


the  boys'  teams  had  finished 
playing  their  game,  and  the 
crowd  for  the  girls'  game 
nearly  doubled  in  size,  with 
fans  of  both  teams  standing 
and  cheering  the  squads 
during  the  pregame 
festivities. 

After  both  rosters  were 
introduced  on  the  field  and 
after  North  Quincy  junior 
forward  Michell  Gardiner 
sang  a  beautiful  rendition  of 
The  National  Anthem,  the 
action  in  the  game  got  started 
before  the  first  minute  had 
passed  on  the  game  clock. 

North  Quincy  senior 
midfielderEmily  Milone  had 
a  good  scoring  chance  just 
thirty  seconds  after  the 
opening  whistle,  but 
Quincy '  s  goal  keeper,  Aly  ssa 
Mullen,  made  the  save. 
Milone's  early  scoring 
chance  seemed  to  fire  up  the 
Red  Raiders,  and  for  the  next 
thirty  minutes.  North 
continued  to  pepper  Mullen 
with  shot  after  shot. 

In  the  7"'  minute,  Milone 
fed  sophomore  Cara  Murtagh 
(playing  in  her  second  game 
after  suffering  a  broken  nose ) 
with  a  great  feed  but  Mullen 
made  the  save.  In  the  22'"' 
minute,  Milone  found  Stille 
wide  open  down  the  right 
side  of  the  field,  but  Stille  let 
the  shot  Hy  a  little  early  and 
the  result  was  a  goal  kick  for 
Quincy. 

The  Red  Raiders  finally 
broke  through  with  ten 
minutes  to  go  before  halftime 
as  O'Connell  found  Stille  for 
the  goal.  Dana  Djert,  who 
had  just  been  brought  up  from 
the  jayvee  team  earlier  in  the 
week,  scored  off  a  pass  from 
Murtagh  with  2: 1 7  to  play  in 
the  half  to  give  the  Red 
Raiders  the  2-0  halftime  lead. 

"I  thought  that  Murtagh 
played  a  solid  game.  She 
showed  some  poise  on  that 
second  goal  and  her  pass  to 
Djerf  was  spot  on,"  said 
Bregoli.

Red  Raiders  Edge  Presidents,  1-0 


The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raiders  and  the  Quincy 
Presidents  met  last  Saturday 
afternoon  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  in  the  first 
of  two  soccer  games  between 
the  local  high  schools  this 
fall.  North  Quincy  came  out 
on  top  1  -0. 

Senior  forward  John 
Cicciariello  scored  the  lone 
goal  about  thirty  minutes  into 
the  first  half.  Cicciariello 
capitalized  on  a 

miscommunication  between 
Quincy  goalkeeper  John 
Sullivan  and  his  defense  after 
junior  forward  Shane  Regan 
lofted  a  deep  pass  down  the 
middle  of  the  field.  The  ball 
squirted  loose  from  the  grasps 
of  Sullivan  and  Cicciariello 
tucked  the  ball  into  the  back 
of  the  net. 

After  the  goal  by 
Cicciariello,  the  Red  Raiders 
and  the  Presidents  took  turns 


BOYS' 
SOCCER 


pushing  the  ball  up  into  the 
offensive  zone  the  rest  of  the 
half.  Quincy' s  sophomore 
forward,  Sherkel  John  Lewis, 
used  good  footwork  late  in 
the  half  to  get  off  a  solid 
scoring  chance,  but  North 
Quincy  goalkeeper  Ryan 
Louis  made  the  point  blank 
save  to  keep  the  score  1-0. 

Red  Raider  junior  forward 
Mike  Prioli,  who  played  a 
great  game  from  his  forward 
position,  fed  Regan  with  a 
beautiful  cross  field  pass  with 
about  five  minutes  to  play  in 
the  half,  but  Regan's  shot 
attempt  was  stopped  by 
Sullivan. 

At  the  end  of  the  first  half. 
North  Quincy  had  registered 


ten  quality  scoring  chances, 
scoring  once,  while  Quincy 
had  six  looks  at  the  net,  but 
were  rebuffed  on  each 
attempt. 

The  early  minutes  of  the 
second  half  were  filled  with 
opportunities  from  both 
sides,  in  the  third  minute, 
John  Lewis  ripped  a  shot  on 
net,  only  to  be  called  offsides 
by  the  backside  referee.  The 
Raiders  quickly  countered 
two  minutes  later  and  just 
missed  going  up  2-0  as 
Prioli 's  diving  header  missed 
the  mark. 

Regan  and  Prioli  almost 
came  through  again  moments 
later,  but  Sullivan  slopped 
Prioli's  shot  altera  beautiful 
led  from  Regan  had  brought 
him  in  alone  on  net. 

Wiih  the  momentum 
shifting  back  ami  forth, 
Regan  battled  for  a  free  ball 
in  the  64th  minute  in  the 


Quincy  penalty  box  and  drew 
the  foul.  Sullivan  saved  his 
attempt  at  the  penalty  kick 
and  the  rebound  was  clanged 
off  the  left  post. 

The  remainder  of  the 
second  half  was  a  .series  of 
long  balls  up  and  down  the 
turf  at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium,  and  .scoring  chances 
were  few  and  far  between  for 
both  teams,  but  Quincy 
would  have  one  more  chance 
to  tie  the  game  at  1-1  late  in 
injury  time. 

Senior  forward  Martin 
Bowes  took  the  ball  down 
the  right  side  of  the  field, 
weaved  his  way  into  the 
North  Quincy  box,  and  led 
sophomore  forward  Cedric 
Dybaud  with  a  perlecl  pass. 
Dybaud  rilled  a  rocket  shot 
past  a  diving  Louis,  but  his 
shot  hit  the  right  post  and 
back  out  about  thirty  yards.

Presidents  Fall 


Host  Dennis-Yarmouth  Friday  At  7  P.M. 


To  Whitman-Hanson     Red  Raiders  Stopped 

By  Plymouth  North 


The  Quincy  Presidents 
could  do  little  on  offense 
against  Whitman-Hanson 
High  School  last  Friday  night 
at  Veterans  Memorial 
Stadium,  and  fell  in  defeat 
14-0. 

The  loss,  the  Presidents 
second  in  a  row  against  an 
Atlantic  Coast  League 
opponent,  drops  their  overall 
record  to  1-3,  1-2  in  the 
league.  Whitman-Hanson, 
which  had  started  the  season 
at  0-4,  improves  to  1-4 
overall,  1-3  in  the  ACL. 

The  first  quarter  resulted 
in  very  little  offense  foreither 
team  and  ended  tied  a  0-0. 

In  the  .second  c|uarter,  the 
Warriors  got  on  the  board 
twice.  W-H  quarterback  Kyle 
Armstrong  led  his  team  down 
the  Held  on  its  first  possession 
of  the  quarter  with  a  scries  of 
short  passes  and  runs  that 
resulted  in  first  down  alter 
first  tlown. 

After  drivmg  lieep  into 
Quincy  territory,  Armstrong 
and  the  Warriors  faced  a 
second-and-goal  liom  the 
one-yard  line.  Quincy, 
anticipating  a  run  play,  bit  on 
the  play  action  fake  by 
Armstrong  and  he  found  a 
wide-open  Noel  James  in  the 
corner  of  the  end/one  for  the 
early  6-0  lead.  Adam 
Costerman's  point  after  kick 
was  good,  and  Whitman- 
Hanson  had  the  7-0 
advantage. 


ball  on  their  ensuing 
possession  and  after  calling 
running  plays  for  senior 
halfback  Diego  Arredondo 
on  first  and  second  down;  the 
offense  could  not  convert  on 
third-and-long.  Forced  to 
punt  the  ball  back  to  the 
Warriors,  Quincy  leaned  on 
its  defense  for  another  stop, 
but  the  Whitman-Hanson 
offense  and  Armstrt)ng  had 
other  ideas. 

Armstrong  and  his  offen.se 
made  it  into  Quincy  territory- 
using  short  passes  and  runs 
to  gain  valuable  yards  and 
first  downs.  With  the  ball  on 
the  Presidents"  3X-yard  line, 
Armstrong  went  back  to  the 
air  and  found  wide  receiver 
.lelf  Smith  open  on  the 
sidelines.  Smith  took  the  pass 
and  went  thirty-eight  yaids 
for  the  Warriors"  second 
score  of  the  second  quarter. 
Costerman  converted  on  his 
second  PAT  of  the  game  and 
Whitman!  lanson  entered  the 
halftime  break  with  a 
commanding  14-0  lead. 

Quincy  would  ct)me  out 
ol  the  locker  room  after  the 
break  l(H)king  to  put  points 
on  the  scoreboard,  but  the 
offense  could  get  nothing 
going  against  the  tough 
Whitman-Hanson  defense. 
Entering  Friday  night's 
contest,  the  Warriors  were 
allowing  2 1  points  per  game 
to  their  opponents,  while 
Quincy  "s     offense     was 


The  Presidents  tiH>k  the     averaging     just     over 


touchdown  a  game  (8.0 
points  per  game)  on  offense, 
and  the  results  were  not  good 
for  the  Presidents  in  the 
second-half. 

Quincy  could  not  get  their 
offen.se  moving  in  the  right 
direction,  as  penalties, 
dropped  passes  and  an 
inconsistent  running  game, 
not  to  mention  pretty  good 
defense,  stalled  every 
potential  drive. 

On  the  flip  side,  the 
Presidents  defense  held  it 
own  against  W-H  in  the 
second  half,  forcing  the 
Warriors  to  punt  the  ball  on 
almost  every  possession. 
Quincy,  on  the  year,  is 
holding  its  opponents  to  1 7.3 
points  per  game. 

Things  will  not  get  any 
easier  for  Quincy  this  week 
as  they  look  to  snap  out  of

By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

This  time  around  the 
football  did  not  bounce  the 
North  Quincy  Red  Raiders 
way. 

After  three  consecutive 
wins,  including  two  come- 
from-behind  victories  over 
Atlantic  Coast  League 
opponents  the  last  two  weeks, 
the  Red  Raiders  succumbed 
to  the  Eagles  of  Plymouth 
North  last  Friday  night  28-0. 
The  loss  drops  North's 
overall  record  to  3-2,  2-1  in 
the  ACL. 

The  Raiders  turned  the 
ball  over  four  times, 
including  three  times  in  the 
first-half  and  a  drive-ending 
INT  in  the  endzone  while 
trying  to  coiueback  from 
down  28-0  late  in  the  second 
half;  and  could  not  find  a 
way  to  stop  the  Eagles'  two- 
headed  offensive  monster  of 
Keegan  Grabhorn  (five 
carries,  82  yards;  four 
receptions,  63  yards,  2  TDs) 
and  Tommy  Carr  ( 1 5  carries, 
77  yards,  TD). 

"We  really  didn't  give 
ourselves  a  shot,"  said  North 
Quincy  head  coach  Jim 
Connor.  "Everything  went 
against  us.  The  early 
turnovers  hurt  the  flow  and 
confidence  of  our  offense. 
We  needed  to  play  perfect 
but  we  didn't." 

The  game's  first  quarter 
saw  both  teams  struggle  to 
get  any  type  of  offense  going, 
as  the  defenses  controlled  the 
game  pace  and  field  position 
on  both  sides  of  the  field.  At 
the  end  of  the  opening  fraine, 
the  score  was  0-0. 

In  the  second  quarter,  the 
Plymouth  North  offense  and 
defense  grabbed  control  of 
the  game  and  by  halftime. 
North  Quincy  was  facing  a 
three-touchdown  deficit.  The 
Eagles  opened  the  scoring  in 
the  quarter  on  a  two-yard 
torchdown  run  by 
quarterback  Joe  Flynn. 


FOOTBALL 


With  the  clock  winding 
down  to  the  five-minute 
mark,  the  score  was  a 
manageable  7-0,  but  the  Red 
Raiders  could  still  not  get 
their  offense  moving  in  the 
right  direction.  After 
fumbling  the  ball  back  to  the 
Eagles  (the  football  was 
recovered  by  Matt 
Brouillard),  North's  dreams 
of  starting  the  season  3-0  in 
the  ACL  went  up  in  smoke. 

On  the  ensuing  drive, 
Flynn  found  Grabhorn  for  a 
huge  38-yard  pass 
completion  to  set  up  a 
redzone  opportunity  for  the 
Eagles.  Cart  cashed  in  with  a 
7-yard  touchdown  to  give  the 
hosts  a  14-0  lead. 

North  Quincy  had  their 
shot  to  get  back  into  the  game 
late  in  the  half,  but  once  again, 
a  turnover  stopped  a 
promising  drive  prematurely. 
Quarterback  Dennis  Martin 
was  intercepted  at  the 
Plymouth  North  47-yard  line 
by,  who  else,  but  Brouillard 
(who  finished  the  game  with 
two  fumble  recoveries  and 
an  interception).  The  Eagles 
capitalized  ten  plays  later 
when  Flynn  found  Grabhorn 
with  a  five-yard  touchdown 
pass  to  put  the  score  at  2 1  -0 
as  the  teams  entered  the 
locker  room  for  halftime. 

Plymouth  North  took  the 
wind  out  of  the  Red  Raiders' 
sails  right  out  of  the  gate  to 
start  the  second  half.  The 
Eagles,  already  up  2 1  -0,  went 
77  yards  on  eight  plays  on 
their  first  drive  of  the  half  to 
put  the  score  at  28-0.  The  big 
play  of  the  drive  was  a  25- 
yard  run  by  Grabhorn  on 
third-and-long  inside  the 
North  Quincy  side  of  the 
field.  Grabhorn  finished  off 
the  scoring  drive  with  a  5- 
yard  touchdown  run  his 


second  TD  of  the  game. 

Even  down  by  four 
touchdowns.  North  Quincy 
refused  to  give  in  or  give  up 
on  another  possible 
comeback  attempt. 

Following  Grabhorn's 
second  touchdown,  the  Red 
Raiders  put  together  their  best 
drive  of  the  game,  a  10-play 
march  down  the  field.  But 
once  again,  a  turnover 
quickly  ended  the  threat. 
Grabhorn  picked  off  a  Martin 
pass  in  the  endzone.  It  was 
the  fourth  and  final  turnover 
of  the  game  for  North  Quincy. 

Junior  halfback  Patrick 
Watkins  led  North  Quincy 
offense  with  73  yards  on  just 
six  carries,  including  a  49- 
yard  run  in  the  fourth  quarter. 

The  Eagles  got  up  early 
and  made  it  tough  for  North 
to  get  back  in  the  game  by 
controlling  the  game  clock 
throughout  all  four  quarters. 
For  the  game,  Plymouth 
North  finished  with  12  first 
downs,  while  the  Raiders 
picked  up  j ust  six  first  downs. 

Next  up  for  the  Red 
Raiders  is  Dennis- Yarmouth 
High  School  this  Friday  at 
Veterans  Memorial  Stadium 
(7  p.m.).  The  Dolphins  will 
present  North  Quincy  with 
their  toughest  game  to  date 
this  fall.  D-Y  is  3-0  in  the 
ACL,  5-0  overall  and  4-0  on 
the  road.  They  are  averaging 
27.4  points  per  game,  while 
allowing  just  15.6  points  to 
their  opponents. 

Their  quarterback,  Nick 
Montalto,  has  thrown  six  TD 
passes  and  running  back,  Joe 
Jamiel,  is  the  leading  scorer 
in  all  of  Division  1  A.  Jamiel 
has  already  scored  1 1  times 
this  season. 

The  Red  Raiders  are 
averaging  17  points  per 
game,  and  allowing  18.2  to 
their  opponents.  North 
Quincy  curtently  holds  a  2- 1 
home  record  playing  at  the 
Vet. 


North  Blanks  Quincy,  4-0 


(Cont'd  Front  Page  25) 

Quincy  battled  throughout 
the  opening  half,  continually 
firing  long  balls  up  the  field, 
looking  to  capitalize  on  a 
North  Quincy  defensive 
breakdown.  But  the  Raider 
backfield  of  Kerry  Coughlin, 
Simone  Leary  and  Lindsey 
Repucci  kept  the  play  in  front 
of  goalkeeper  Siobhan 
Camell,  and  limited  (Juincy 
to  very  little  scoring  chances. 

"Quincy  came  out  and 
played  a  very  aggressive 
opening  half.  We  made  the 
team  aware  of  possible 
offside  calls  that  may  have 
come  form  their  style  of  play, 
and  our  defense  really  stood 
up    when    Quincy    did 


challenge  on  the  offensive 
end,"  Bregoli  added.  "I 
thought  Coughlin  played  a 
good  game  defensively.  We 
did  a  good  job  of  stopping 
any  attack  that  Quincy  tried 
to  bring  up  our  end  of  the 
field." 

Milone  and  junior  Kerry 
Donaghey  both  scored  in  the 
second  half  to  complete  the 
scoring  for  North  Quincy. 
Milone' s  goal  was  her  ninth 
of  the  season. 

Bregoli  noted  that 
freshman  Jillian  Carchedi, 
junior  Siobhan  Camell  and 
senior  Rene  DiPietro  all 
played  well  in  the  victory. 

For  Quincy.  Mullen  stood 
out  in  net,  while  defenders 


Leslie  Campbell  and  Julie 
Leone  held  their  ground 
against  the  relentless  Red 
Raider  attack. 

The  rest  of  the  Quincy 
roster  includes  seniors  Leah 
Buccheri,  Catherine  Carella 
and  Julie  Kisielius,  juniors 
Jenna  Campbell,  Christine 
Campbell,  Amanda  Feiella,

Stars  On  Cars  Help  Customers  Judge 
Vehicles  Based  On  Safety  Ratings 


(NAPS)  -  Since  Sept.  1. 
automotive  consumers  have 
had  another  valuable  tool  to 
help  them  make  informed 
choices  regarding  the  safety 
of  the  vehicles  they're 
considering  buying. 

The  new  law.  part  of  a 
provision  in  the  U.S. 
Department  of 

Transportation's  2005 
Highway  Bill.  "Stars  on 
Cars,"  requires  automakers 
to  post  the  results  of  both 
crash  test  and  rollover  ratings 
from  thee  National  Highway 
Traffic  Safety 

Administration  (NHTSA)  on 
all  2008  vehicle  window 
stickers. 

More  than  a  year  ahead  of 
the  government's  Sept.  1 
deadline.  Ford  Motor 
Company  has  been  posting 
the  government's  safety 
rating  on  many  of  its  vehicle. 

"We've  supported  the 
legislation  since  it  was  first 
proposed,"  said  James 
Vondale,  director, 

Automotive  Safety  Office, 
Ford  Motor  Company.  "It 
provides  consumers  with 
important  information  at  the 
point  of  purchase  and  helps 
show  that  we  have  many 
vehicles  with  excellent  crash 
test  ratings." 


The  law  is  called  Stars  on 
Cars  because  of  the  siar- 
rating  system  NHTSA  uses 
to  test  and  rate  new  cars  in 
front  and  side  crash  tests  and 
in  rollover  avoidance  tests. 
Five  stars  indicate  the  best 
possible  safety  rating  for 
vehicles  within  the  same 
weight  class. 

The  NHTSA  crash  results 
are  posted  on  the  window 
sticker  alongside  information 
that  is  already  provided,  such 
as  the  manufacturer's  retail 
price,  safety  and  convenience 
features    and    EPA    fuel 


economy. 

Vondale  and  Stars  on  Cars 
is  a  win-win  for  both  Ford 
and  its  customers. 

"According  to  several 
studies  in  the  marketplace, 
safety  has  become  a  much 
bigger  part  of  the  buying 
decision  because  it  helps 
consumers  make  a  more 
informed  decision  at  the 
dealership  and  it  encourages 
all  of  us  to  continue  to 
enhance  vehicles  safety,"  he 
said. 

In  2(X)6,  more  than  a  year 
before  required,  Ford  began 


placing  the  safety  ratings  on 
\arious  vehicle  window 
stickers-also  known  as 
Monroney  labels. 

The  vehicles  included  the 
Ford  Explorer,  Mercury 
Mountaineer  sport  utility

Can  it  not  be  said  progress  or 
failure  is  mainly  due  to  proper,  im- 
proper or  sometimes  an  utter  lack 
of  thinking?  Surely  it  is  true  that 
new  ideas  and  powerful  thoughts 
can  affect  your  own  destiny  and  in 
some  cases  even  the  destiny  of  man- 
kind in  general.  Men  like  Alexander, 
Napoleon  and  Hitler  had  thoughts  which  led  to  wars  of 
conquest.  They  brought  only  destruction.  Other  men 
with  other  thoughts  brought  progress,  prosperity  and 
happiness.  And  so  it  is  with  all  of  us  as  individuals. . . 

Our  thoughts  of  today  can  create  a  better  or  worse 
tomorrow . . .  Proper  thoughts  not  only  add  purpose,  they 
create  new  incentives  for  life  itself.  Is  it  not  true  if  our 
thoughts  are  fliled  with  faith,  cheerfulness,  gratitude, 
encouragement,  happiness,  love  and  friendship  -  we 
avoid  negative  and  destructive  thoughts  of  greed,  de- 
spair, fear  and  vulgarity?  Are  these  not  compelling 
reasons  to  channel  our  thoughts  toward  the  good  things 
in  life ....

Stars 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  Although  you  love  being 
the  focus  of  attention,  it's  a 
good  idea  to  take  a  few  steps 
back  right  now  to  just  watch 
the  action.  What  you  sec  can 
help  with  an  upcoming  deci- 
sion. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  "Caution"  continues  to 
be  your  watchword  this 
week,  as  a  former  colleague 
tries  to  reconnect  old  links. 
There  arc  still  some  dark 
places  that  need  to  be  illumi- 
nated. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Making  a  good  first 
impression  is  important. 
Revealing  your  often  hidden 
sense  of  humor  can  help  you 
get  through  some  of  the  more 
awkward  situations. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Taking  that  Cancer  Crab 
image  too  seriously?  Lighten 
up.  Instead  of  complaining 
about  your  problems,  start 
resolving  them.  A  friend 
would  be  happy  to  help. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  widening  distance  between 
you  and  that  special  person 
needs  to  be  handled  with 
honesty  and  sensitivity. 
Don't  let  jealousy  create  an 
even  greater  gap  between  you 
two. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Congratulations. 
Your  handling  of  a  delicate 
family  matter  rates  kudos. 
But  no  resting  on  your  laurels 
just  yet.  You  still  have  to 
resolve  that  or.  ^he-job  prob- 
lem. 


LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  You  might  sur- 
prise everyone  by  being 
unusually  impulsive  this 
week.  But  even  level-headed 
Libras  need  to  do  the  unex- 
pected now  and  then. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  A  period  of 
turmoil  gives  way  to  a 
calmer,  more  settled  environ- 
ment. Use  this  quieter  time  to 
patch  up  neglected  personal 
and/or  professional  relation- 
ships. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21)  A 
new  relationship  could  create 
resentment  among  family 
and  friends  who  feel  left  out 
of  your  life.  Show  them  you 
care  by  making  more  time  for 
them. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Concen- 
trate on  completing  all  your 
unfmished  tasks  before  dead- 
line. You'll  then  be  able  to 
use  this  freed-up  time  to 
research  new  career  opportu- 
nities. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  You're  right  to 
try  to  help  colleagues  resolve 
their  heated  differences.  But 
keep  your  objectivity  and 
avoid  showing  any  favoritism 
'twixt  the  two  sides. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Your  personal  life 
continues  to  .show  positive 
changes.  Enjoy  this  happy 
rum  of  events,  by  all  means. 
But  be  careful  not  to  neglect 
your  workplace  obligations. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
People  of  all  ages  look  to  you 
for  advice  and  encourage- 
ment. You  would  make  an 
excellent  counselor.

Council  Votes  $19,1  Million  Transfer 

City  Saves  $500,000 
On  Health  Contracts 


City  councillors  Monday 
voted  unanimously  to  amend 
the  city's  health  benefits 
budget  by  adding 
approximately  $19.1  million 
as  recommended  by  the 
Finance  Committee. 

Committee  Chairman 
John  Keenan  recommended 
approval  of  the  transfer  after 
explaining  that  the  council 
held  back  over  $  1 9.6  million 
during  budget  discussion  due 
to  anticipated  savings  in  the 
new  union  contracts. 

At  the  time,  councillors 
said  they  expected 
considerable  benefit  costs 


savings  after  Mayor  William 
Phelan  executed  contracts 
with  police  and  teachers. 

In  fact,  the  city  saved  over 
a  half  a  million  dollars  in 
benefit  costs. 

At  this  week's  council 
meeting.  David  Murphy,  the 
mayor's  Director  of 
Operations,  pointed  out  that 
the  new  appropriation 
reflects  the  mayor's  efforts 
to  reduce  the  city's  cost  of 
health  care  benefits. 

Murphy  noted  that 
previous  union  contracts 
required  the  city  to  pay  90% 
of  all  employee  benefits 


while  employees  paid  10 
percent. 

The  new  contracts  with 
police  and  teachers  require 
the  employees  lo  pay  157( . 

At  Monday's  meeting. 
Murphy  thanked  the  city 
council  on  behalf  of  the 
mayor.  The  following  day, 
Phelan  also  thanked  the 
council. 

"This  is  a  great  first  step 
in  protecting  our  taxpayers 
from  spiraling  health  care 
costs,  but  it  is  only  the  first 
step,"  said  Mayor  Phelan.

Her  ashes  were  buried 
beside  her  father  in 
Annaghvane  Cemetery.  Part 
of  her  ashes  are  buried  in 
Quincy  and  more  will  be  bur-

Corporal  Durkin's  body

ground  near  a  church  on 
Bagram  Air  Base  in  Afghani-

let wound  in  her  head. 

The  Army  has  launched 
an  investigation  into  her 
death. 

"We  are  trying  to  be  pa- 
tient." said  her  brother. 
Pierce  Durkin.  "We  hope  the 
results  of  the  investigation 
will  give  us  answers  and 
therefore  some  closure. 

"We  owe  it  to  Ciara  to  see 
this  through  with  dignity." 


At  North  Quincy  High  School 

Phelan,  Koch 

Are  Pressed  By 

Students  At  Debate 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
and  challenger  Tom  Koch 
were  pressed  by  students" 
questions  at  their  debate 
Tuesday  in  the  North  Quincy 
High  School  auditorium. 

Nan  Chen,  a  North  stu- 
dent and  a  member  of  the 
panel  that  also  included  three 
veteran  journalists  had  a 
question  and  stayed  with  it. 

What  are  you  going  to  do 
about  getting  back  the  health 
class  that  was  cut  several 
years  ago,  he  asked  Phelan. 

"1  took  office  in  a  diffi- 
cult year,"  said  Phelan.  "You 
have  to  understand  that  we 
inherited  a  fiscal  situation 
that  was  very  difficult.  We 
have  built  back  those  pro- 
grams that  were  eliminated." 

"In  the  future,  it's  going 
to  come  back?"  persisted 
Chen. 


"■^'es,"  said  Phelan. 

"You  promise  that, 
right'.'"  said  Chen.  "1  want  i( 
in  words." 

"1  can  make  no  prom- 
ises," said  Phelan. 

"Point  of  order,"  said 
Cha/.y  Dowaliby.  the  editor 
of  the  sponsoring  Patriot 
Ledger,  who  served  as  mod- 
erator. "There  "II  be  no 
followup  questions. ■■ 

In  addition  to  Chen,  the 
panel  lor  the  debate  at  North 
Quincy  High  School  was 
made  up  of  Laura  Griffin  of 
rhc  (Jiiincy  Sun,  Jack  Kelly 
of  the  Patriot  Ledger,  and 
Dave  Skill  of  Radio  WAID 
in  Marshfield. 

"When  we  took  office," 
said  Phelan.  "the  first  order 
of  business  was  to  get  our 
arms  around  (the  fiscal  mess) 
so  we  could  start  investing  in 


the  school  system  again.

Koch  said  the  mayor's 
mishandling  of  funding  for 
the  new  Quincy  High  School 
has  cost  the  city  $48  million. 
He  called  that  "devastating." 

■'Thal"s  going  to  take  up

Patrick  outlined  his  com- 
prehensive strategy  for  pub- 
lic education,  starting  before 
kindergarten,  with  early  edu- 
cation opportunities  for  3 
and  4-year-olds.  He  said  he 
favors  all-day  kindergartens 
and  smaller  class  sizes,  espe- 
cially in  the  early  grades. 

He  admitted  he  was  prob- 
ably "upsetting  the  kids  in

aged a  longer  school  day.

"Don't  laugh!  That's 
where  our  school  calendar 
comes  from  and  it  seems  to 
me  appropriate  to  ask  our- 
selves whether  that  makes 
sense  in  the  2 1  st  century  and 
how  do  we  connect  this  up 


to  the  demands  on  all  of  us 
from  the  workplace  and  the 
global  economy."

300  Name  Petition  Opposes  PUD  Plan 

Neighbors  Divided  On 
FoUett  St.  Re-Zoning 


Erin  Lapsley  Fighting  Lymphoma 

November  Fundraiser 
Planned  For  Quincy  Mom 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Quincy  Point's  William 
LaRaia  Monday  presented 
City  Councillors  with  a 
petition  signed  by  300 
residents  who  oppose  the 
rezoning  of  over  10  acres  of 
waterfront  property  on  Follett 
Street  from  Industrial  A  to 
Planned  Unit  Development 
or  PUD. 

LaRaia,  along  with  nearly 
a  dozen  other  Quincy  Point 
residents,  addressed  council 
members  at  this  week's 
public  hearing  on  40-76  and 
78-1 12  Follett  Street. 

The  parcels  currently 
house  a  marina  and  a 
waterfront  restaurant,  the  Inn 
at  Bay  Point,  and  can  be 
accessed  through 

Washington  Court. 

Half  of  the  speakers 
opposed  the  re-zoning 
proposal  presented  by  Ward 
2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  while  just  as  many 
residents  favored  a  PUD 
zone.  Some  40  residents 
attended  the  hearing. 

A  PUD  would  allow 
residential  housing  or  similar 
complexes  on  the  site  near 
Avalon  Beach  while  the 
industrial  zone  currently 
allows  manufacturing  or 
other  heavy-duty  industry. 

Opponents  of  the  PUD 
designation  said  that,  at  least, 
business  or  manufacturing 
would  be  operating  from 


9a. m.  to  5p.m.  while  condos, 
an  assisted  living  or  nursing 
facility  could  have 
emergency  vehicles  all  night. 

"What  happened  at 
Highpoint,  what  happened  at 
the  Falls..."  could  happen  in 
Quincy  Point,  warned 
LaRaia,  referring  to  the  large 
complexes  on  Quarry  St.  and 
at  the  former  quarries  and 
landfill  in  West  Quincy. 

"You  can  vote  for  over- 
development. Over- 
development is  killing  the 
neighborhoods,"  LaRaia 
said.  "This  has  been  a  marina 
and  boatyard  for  over  a 
century....  We  would  like  to 
preserve  what's  left  of  the 
waterfront." 

As  for  Raymondi,  LaRaia 
said  that  he  "...is  not  hstening 
to  his  people.  We  want  it 
kept  as  open  space." 

LaRaia  noted  that  photos 
of  Quincy  Point  show 
scenery  so  picturesque  that 
the  pictures  are  displayed  on 
the  city's  website. 

The  only  way  in  and  out  of 
the  property  is  through  the 
narrow  entrance  of 
Washington  Court,  noted 
LaRaia  who  said,  and  "It's 
land-locked  and  water- 
locked." 

The  area  is  densely 
populated,  said  LaRaia  and 
several  other  speakers. 

"We  can't  take  any  more 
housing.  We  are  packed  in

"I  can't  imagine  anything 
else  down  there,"  said  Mary 
Conroy  of  Avalon  Avenue 
who  described  the  section  as 
heavily  burdened  by  traffic. 

"I  have  trouble  going  in 
and  out  of  my  driveway .  The 
access  in  and  out  has  got  to 
be  a  hazard,"  Conroy  said. 

Leroy  Wallace,  Rachelle 
Thomas,  Valerie  Higgins  and 
Martha  Crowley  joined 
Conroy  and  LaRaia  in 
opposing  the  change  while 
nearly  a  dozen,  including  Ray 
Johnson  and  George 
Folsolm,  favored  the  change. 

"I  don't  see  how  the 
proposed  zoning  is  going  to 
help  us  in  any  way,"  said 
Wallace. 

Other  residents  disagreed 
with  most  supporting  a  PUD 
as  the  lesser  of  two  bad 
choices. 

One  speaker  suggested 
that  the  signers  of  the  petition 
did  not  know  what  they  were 
signing  as  any  kind  of 
industry  could  locate  on 
Follett  Street  under  the 
current  designation. 

"With  PUD,  I  do  have 
something  to  say,"  said 
Johnson  who  warned  against

Life  can  change  in  one 
minute  and  no  one  knows 
that  more  profoundly  than 
Quincy's  Lrin  and  David 
Lapsley,  their  two  young 
children,  and  their  family  and 
friends. 

Last  July,  Erin,  a  lifelong 
resident  of  Quincy,  went  to 
her  doctor  w  ith  symptoms  of 
a  chest  cold.  It  was  just  before 
her  43rd  birthday  on  July  18. 

During  the  examination, 
the  doctor  found  a  growth 
and,  shortly  thereafter, 
diagnosed  Erin  with  Large 
B-Cell  Non-Hodgkin's' 
Lymphoma. 

Erin's  life  suddenly 
changed  as  did  her  family's. 
The  young  mother  of  five- 
year-old  Ava  and  four-year- 
old  Ronan  had  planned  on 
returning  to  work. 

Instead,  Erin  began  weeks 
of  intensive  chemotherapy 
and  she  and  David  are  dealing 
not  only  with  the  medical 
emergency,  but,  also,  with 
unexpected  expenses.  David 
works  as  a  financial  analyst 
for  the  Weymouth  school 
system. 

Their  friends  and  family 
hope  to  help  through  a  $20  a 
person  benefit  planned  for

27  Councillors  Hold  Reunion 


McCAULEY 


CILMARTIN 


KOCH  JR. 


Twenty-seven  present  and  former  city  councillors 
got  together  the  other  night  for  a  reunion  at  the  Quincy 
Historical  Society. 

No  agenda  to  contend  with. 
Just  a  relaxing,  fun  night  renewing 
old  acquaintances,  swapping  political 
stories-and  realizing  how  fast  time 
really  flies. 

Former  Mayor  Frank  McCauley, 
one  of  the  27,  notes  they  represent  a 
combined  council  service  of  198  years  and  10  months. 
Fifteen  other  councillors  did  not  attend. 
The  "senior  councillor"  on  hand  for  the  get  together 
was  Tom  Gilmartin,  a  spry  95,  who  held  the  Ward  6  seat 
from  1946  to  1949. 

Gilmartin,  who  was  known  for  his 
predictions  on  elections  and  claims  a 
winning  batting  average,  was  escorted 
by  his  daughter,  Debbie.  He  now  lives 
in  Weymouth  but  still  keeps  tabs  on 
the  Quincy  political  scene. 

He  got  to  chatting  with  one  of  the 
younger   guys,    Dick    Koch.    Jr. 
councillor  at-large  from  1982-87. 

Although  Koch  came  into  the 
council  33  years  after  Gilmartin,  they 
found  a  political  link.  Gilmartin 
defeated  Koch's  father,  Dick  Koch, 
Sr.  in  the  1947  election. 

"So,  you're  the  one  that  kept  my 
father  out  of  politics,"  Koch  mused. 

Koch,  the  brother  of  mayoral  candidate  Tom  Koch, 
is  now  police  chief  in  Brewster.  And,  to  make  you  feel 
a  little  older,  he's  a  recent  grandfather. 

Tim  Cahill  (1988-1999)  who  gets  around  as  State 
Treasurer  told  the  group:  "You  should 
know  how  well  Quincy  is  thought  of 
outside  the  city." 

Although  his  office  is  now  on 
Beacon  Hill,  his  home-and  heart-are 
still  in  Quincy.  "I'll  always  be  a  city 
councillor,"  he  said  with  emotion. 
City  Clerk  Joseph  Shea  sprinkled 
some  council  trivia  around: 

The  late  John  Quinn  served  24 
years-the  longest  in  the  city's  history. 
Joseph  LaRaia, 
who  attended,  is 
runner-up  with  20 
years  and  five 
months  in  addition  to 
his  term  as  mayor. 

Father-and-son  combinations: 

RichardJ.  Barry  (1937-38)  and  son, 

Richard  W.  Barry  ( 1 962-67).  The  latter 

caused  a  bit  of  a  frenzy  when  he  proposed  that  historic 

Hancock  Cemetery  be  taken  for  a  municipal  parking 

lot.  (He  also  had  a  sense  of  humor.) 

George  B .  McDonald  ( 1 960-7 1 )  followed  his  father, 
George  P.  (1942-45)  and  uncle,  Thomas  F.  McDonald 
( 1 930-3 1 )  into  the  Ward  4  seat. 

The  most  unique  family  combo  was  Herbert  F. 
Federhan,  Sr.  and  son,  Herbert  F.  Federhan.  Jr.  who 
were  both  elected  Ward  2  councillor  in  1 89 1 .  And  lived 
in  the  same  house. 
What? 

"That's  right,"  says  McCauley.  "They  were  elected 
under  the  city's  Original  Charter  (1889-1916).  The

charter  called  for  23  councillors-three  from  each  of  the 
six  wards  and  five  at-large." 

Although  the  Federhans  both  represented  Ward  2 
and  lived  together,  they  were  a  house  politically  divided. 
Elections  back  then  were  partisan.  The  father  was  a 
Republican  and  the  son  a  Democrat. 

With  23  members,  the  council  meetings  were  verbal 
marathons. 

"Sometimes  they  lasted  until  4  a.m.  the  following 
morning,"  says  McCauley. 

He  recalls  John  D.  Smith,  Ward  4  councillor  under 
that  original  charter  telling  him:  -"At  one  meeting  at  2 
a.m.  we  were  still  debating  if  the  Philippines  should  be 
free." 

Council  President  Doug  Gutro  arranged  the  reunion 
with  Shea,  Cahill  and  McCauley  as  co-chairmen. 

A  moment  of  silence  was  observed 
in  the  memory  of  former  Councillors 
Albert  Barilaro,  Ted  DeCristofaro, 
Edward  Graham,  Paul  Harold  and 
Alfred  Helfrich  who  died  since  the 
last  reunion  in  April  2002. 

Former  Mayor-Councillor  Walter 

Hannon  brought  along  a  gift  for  the 

Quincy  Historical  Society,  which  he  presented,  to 

/?■   President    James    Edward    and 

^f    Executive  Director  Edward  Fitzgerald. 

It  was  a  DVD  copy  of  a   16- 

milhmeter  film  "Gifts  To  The  Nation"- 

highlighting  Quincy 's  contributions- 

that  he  had  commissioned  as  mayor  in 

celebration  of  the  nation's   1975 

Bicentennial  and  the  350""  anniversary 

of  Quincy' s  settlement. 

Ward  5  and  6  took  top  honors  in  the  number  attending 
the  reunion. 

Ward  5:  George  Burke,  Warren  Powers  (now 
presiding  justice  of  Wrentham  District  Court),  Steve 
McGrath,  Charles  (Chuck)  Phelan,  Gutro,  Hannon. 

Ward  6;  Present  Councillor  Brian  McNamee,  Alicia 
Gardner,  Bruce  Ayers,  Joanne  Condon-Walsh,  Dennis 
Harrington  and  Gilmartin. 

Condon-Walsh  and  Gardner  represent  half  of  the 
women  elected  to 
the  council  in  the 
city's  history. 
The  only  other 
two:  Edna  Austin 
and  Patricia 
Toland. 

Ward         1: 
Present 

Councillor  Leo  Kelly,  Peter  Kolson,  Greg  Hanley  and 
McCauley. 

Ward  3;  Current  Councillor  Kevin  Coughlin,  Patrick 
McDermott,  now  Norfolk  County  Register  of  Probate; 
and  Larry  Chretien. 

Eight  council  presidents  attended:  In  addition  to 
Gutro,  Burke,  Phelan,  McGrath,  LaRaia,  McCauley, 
Kelly,  Kolson. 

And  10  at-large  councillors;  Present  Joseph  Finn, 
John  Keenan  and  Mike  McFarland,  Charles  Mclntyre, 
Burke,  Cahill,  McGrath,  LaRaia,  McCauley,  Koch. 

It  was  also  a  reunion  for  former  City  Clerk  John 
Gillis,  now  a  Norfolk  County  Commissioner,  Shea, 
Assistant  Clerk  Maureen  Hallsen  and  Jeanne  Reardon, 
city  council  clerk  of  committees. 

And  a  night  of  fond  memories  for  all.

THIS  IS  A  1920's  postcard  view  of  Brook  Street  in 
Wollaston  looking  west  from  Newport  Avenue.  The 
street  was  named  for  Sachem \s  Brook  which  runs  from 
Milton  through  the  Montclair  bog  and  now  under- 
ground to  between  the  yacht  clubs  on  Wollaston  Beach. 
From  Newport  Avenue  to  Highland  Avenue  the  brook 
is  buried  to  the  left  of  this  street.  It  runs  under  the  rear 
of  the  buildings  on  the  left.  Commercial  buildings  were 
first  built  on  this  part  of  Brook  Street  early  in  the  20th 
century.  One  of  the  first  was  James  MacFarland's  Hard-

Reader  Identifles  Granite-Worker  In  Photo  As  Father 


I  am  writing  in  regard  to 
the  article  in  The  Quincy 
Sun,  dated  vSeptember  6, 
2007,  about  Swingle's 
Quarry.  Under  the  photo  on 
Page  9  the  author  calls  out 
the  names  of  the  Swingle 
family  in  the  photo,  with  a 
comment  about  the  uniden- 
tified people  remaining  uni- 
dentified unless  some  rela- 
tives or  friends  recognize 
them. 

I  first  saw  the  photo  when 
I  went  to  The  Tavern  at  Gran- 


ite Links,  Quincy,  this  past 
summer,  where  it  was  dis- 
played in  the  lobby  of  the 
restaurant.  I  thought  that  the 
man  in  the  lower  left  comer 
of  the  photo  looked  like  my 
father,  who  had  worked  at 
Swingle's  in  the  1920s  and 
1930s. 

My  brother,  who  sub- 
scribes to  The  Quincy  Sun, 
showed  me  the  photo  in  the 
September  6  edition  and 
asked  if  I  recognized  the  man 
in  the  lower  left  comer  of  the 


photo.  We  were  both  amazed 
that  each  of  us,  indepen- 
dently, had  recognized  the 
same  person  as  our  father, 
Joseph  J.  Jackson. 

I  remember  my  father 
talking  about  Swingle's  and 
how  hard  the  work  was  and 
how  cold  the  winters  were. 
He  talked  about  how  strict 
"old  man  Swingle"  was  but 
how  young  Jay  was  such  a 
nice  fellow. 

As  youngsters  we  would 
ride  by  the  polished  ball  at 


the  Fore  River  Shipyard 
circle,  on  our  way  to  a  day  at 
Nantaskct  Beach,  and  Pa 
would  tell  us  how  he  helped 
load  the  ball  onto  the  truck 
at  Swingle's. 

I  hope  this  will  help  iden- 
tify some  of  the  people  in  the 
photo.  They  were  all  hard 
workers  and  took  pride  in 
their  jobs.  They  should  not 
be  forgotten.

Want  Pageant  Field  Track  Project  Postponed 


As  the  fall  marches  on 
and  there  are  roughly  three 
weeks  remaining  until  the 
Quincy  mayoral  election  we 
can't  help  but  notice  that  the 
streets  of  Quincy  are  rife 
with  improvements. 

Hmmmmm  -  the  average 
citizen  wonders:  what's  with 
all  the  busy  bees? 

One  favorite  Quincy  em- 
barrassment "Dirt  Pile  Park" 
(AKA  the  Formal  Gardens  at 
Merrymount  Park)  is  finally 
getting  a  much  needed 
facelift.  Will  the  rebar/con- 
crete  circle  be  gone  by  the 
election?  One  can  only  hope. 

Speaking  of  projects,  this 
morning  we  were  at  Pageant 
Field  enjoying  the  beautiful 
open  spaces.  We  were  dis- 
mayed to  see  the  Quincy 
Park  department  employees 
cutting  limbs  off  the  stately 
oaks  and  it  reminded  us  that 
the  construction  of  a  track 
and  field  complex  is  immi- 
nent. 

If  the  mayor's  track 
project  goes  through  the  park 
is  to  become  something  else. 


something  that  will  destroy 
this  singular  open  space  that 
so  many  people  use,  espe- 
cially during  after-school 
activities.  The  thought  of  a 
structure  that  we  will  not  be 
able  to  use,  because  most 
assuredly  it  will  have  a  fence 
and  padlock  just  like  the 
other  athletic  fields  here,  is 
annoying  at  best.  At  worst, 
it  signifies  the  loss  of  one  of 
our  endearing  and  unique 


open  spaces. 

There  is  no  other  place  in 
our  city  where  each  morning, 
one  can  see  a  Great  Blue 
Heron  feeding  in  the  water, 
a  lady  doing  Thai  Chi.  dogs 
romping,  or  kids  at  summer 
activities  for  soccer,  football, 
lacrosse  and  softball  and 
baseball.  This  is  not  an 
underused  space,  and  it  is 
unique. 

We  understand  that  the 


project  is  a  point  of  conten- 
tion to  the  mayoral  candi- 
dates and  we'd  like  to  see  the 
rush  to  construct  put  on  hold 
until  after  the  election. 

If  the  mayor  has  a  man- 
date he'll  be  re-elected.  For 
now,  please  postpone  the 
Pageant  Field  Track  Project.

Lasagna  Rolls  With  Spinach 


I  was  going  to  make  lasagna  for  a  recent 
dinner  party,  and  then  I  began  to  think  how 
easy  it  would  be  to  serve  if  I  made  lasagna 
rolls  instead. 

1  hadn't  made  them  in  a  while,  and  forgot 
how  much  easier  they  are  so  serve  than  cut- 
ting the  lasagna  into  squares. 

Also,  you  can  count  the  strips  of  lasagna 
and  u.se  as  many  or  as  little  as  needed.  I  was 
having  I  ?>  for  dinner,  and  made  26,  half  with 
spinach  and  ricotta  mix  and  the  other  half 
without  the  spinach.  Plus  guests  said  they 
preferred  the  roll  to  the  conventional  lasa- 
gna. Anyway,  today's  recipe  will  maybe 
change  your  mind  to  an  easier  way  to  make 
and  serve  this  delicious  dish. 

LASAGNA  ROLLS 

1  pound  of  lasagna  (or  more  if  needed) 

1  pound  of  ricotta  or  1-1/2  pounds  if 
cream  cheese  is  not  used.) 

8  ounces  of  cream  cheese  (optional) 
(makes  the  dish  tastier) 

legg 

1/2  cup  grated  Romano  cheese  (plus 
more  for  sprinkling) 

1  package  of  frozen  chopped  spinach 

1  package  of  mozzarella  shredded 
cheese 

salt  and  pepper  to  taste 


Mix  ricotta,  cream  cheese,  egg  and  grated 
cheese,  salt  and  pepper  until  well  blended. 
If  using  spinach,  cook  according  to  directions 
(I  sauted  it  in  a  little  olive  oil  and  garlic). 
After  blending  the  cheese  mixture,  and  if 
using  spinach,  take  half  the  mixture  in  a  bowl 
and  add  the  spinach.  Reserve  the  other  half 
in  another  bowl. 

When  the  lasagna  is  cooked,  spread  out 
each  strip  and  spread  the  mixture  up  and 
down.  vSprinkle  with  shredded  cheese  and 
some  grated  cheese.  Roll  the  lasagna.  Place 
seam  side  down  in  a  baking  pan  that  is 
slightly  greased  and  has  a  thin  layer  of  to- 
mato sauce. 

After  all  the  rolls  are  placed  in  the  pan, 
sprinkle  a  small  amount  of  shredded  cheese 
on  each  and  some  grated  chee.se  and  then 
some  tomato  sauce.  Refrigerate  if  you're  not 
ready  to  bake.  When  ready  to  bake,  add  a 
little  more  sauce  in  between  the  rolls  so  that 
they  won't  dry. 

Heat  the  oven  to  375  degrees  and  tightly 
cover  with  foil.  Bake  about  35  minutes  and 
then  uncover  for  another  ten  minutes. 

When  I  made  it,  I  made  the  spinach  ones 
first ,  placed  them  on  top  of  the  baking  pan, 
and  then  the  others,  so  when  it  was  time  to 
serve,  I  knew  which  was  which.  Hope  you 
enjoy  this  as  much  as  we  did.

Cardinal  Hits  'Home  Run'  At  Bad  Abbots  Theology 


By  LAI  RA(;RIFFIN

"Tlicology  on  lap"  al  the 
lush  piih  ni  Quincy  Square. 
It  anyone  expected  a  keg 
party  and  rousing  choruses 
i>l  "C'heei  s  to  the  1 .01  if  at  the 
e\ent.  they  vveie  in  lor  a 
surprise. 

"I'm  a  teetotaler."  the 
C  ardinal  said  later,  ailding, 
"I'lu  not  a  \ery  exciting 
Irishman." 

Cardinal  O'Malley 
offered  the  pub  patrons  a  40- 
niinute  honiily  of  hard  as  a 
rock  theology  while  Bad 
Abbots  stayed  quiet  as  an 
abbey  chapel. 

Bad  Abbots'  owner  Peter 
Kerr  and  his  wife  Ann 
welcomed  Cardinal 

O'Malley.  After  the  session, 
patrons  described  the 
Cardinal's  address  as 
pi>werful  and  effective. 

"It  was  Just  tremendous. 
He  hit  a  homerun."  said  Rev. 
Michael  Drea  who  brought 
the  six-session  "Theology  on 
Tap"  program  to  Quincy  in 
an  effort  to  attract  young 
people  in  their  2{)'s  and  30" s. 
to  his  church  programs. 

Father  Drea  scheduled 
theologians  and  a  nun  for  the 
local  Wednesday  evening 
program  which  usually  draws 
between  60  and  70 
participants.  Double  that 
number  arrived  for  the 
Cardinal's  program. 

'Talk  about  me  wherever 
you  are,"  the  Cardinal  said, 
quoting  Jesus  Christ's 
directive  in  the  New 
Testament  as  the  rationale 
for  using  such  a  different 
pulpit  to  reach  out  and 
evangelize. 

Cardinal  O'Malley  cited 
ancient  Roman  writings, 
Greek  philosophers  and 
current  trends  as  he  warned 
that  today's  culture  is  devoid 
of  moral  standards  and 
community  and  enamored  of 
celebrity  and  entertainment. 


"Sharing  our  faith  is  an 
miperatne,"  the  Cardinal 
s.iid,  then  outlined  the  chal- 
lenges lacing  his  faithful  and 
his  church  which,  he  said, 
has  17  million  inactive 
Catholic  w  ho  have  "stormed 
oir.do/edolloi  simply  fallen 
through  the  cracks." 

In  addition,  there  are  "a 
lot  ol  cultural  Catholics"  who 
come  to  church  for  weddings, 
lunerals  and  Christmas.  For 
them,  the  Cardinal  said,  "The 
I  aith  is  a  sort  of  folk  religion." 

Cardinal  O'Malley 
acknowledged  that 

widespread  scandals  badly 
hurt  the  church  but  said  that 
all  segments  of  people  and 
society  have  good  and  bad, 
"There  have  always  been 
saints  and  sinners  in  the 
church." 

Cardinal  O'Malley 
described  today's  society  as 
an  age  of  indi\  idualism 
which  has  rejected  truth  and 
principle  for  a  "moral  ping 
pong  of  preferences." 

"We  have  reduced  all  the 
commandments  to  one:  Be 
Nice,"  he  said,  adding  there 
is  now  only  one  universal 
injunction,  "Thou  Shall  Not 
Smoke." 

"Celebrities  have  replaced 
hercH's  for  our  youth."  he  siiid, 
describing  "a  culture 
addicted  to  entertainment." 

Today,  Cardinal 

O'Malley  said  there  is  a 
"cynicism  about  the  call  to 
holiness"  and  "what  we  teach 
about  human  dignity,  sexual 
morality  and  human  life"  is 
considered  "increasingly 
alien.  It  makes  us  appear 
quaint  and  even 
meddlesome." 

"Jesus  didn't  come  and 
die  on  the  Cross  so  that  we 
could  have  the  'warm 
fuzzies."  he  noted 

After  his  talk,  observers 
asked  the  Cardinal  questions. 
One  young  man  cited  the 
busy  world  and  asked  where 
to  find  a  quiet  place  for 
reUgious  renewal. 

"If  we  have  time  to  watch 
television,  we  have  plenty  of

.session  of  "Theology  On  Tap"  at  Bad  Abbots  Pub  in  Quincy 
Square. 


AFTER  SPEAKING  at  a  session  of  "Theology  on  Tap"  at  Bad 
Abbots'  Pub  in  Quincy  Square,  Cardinal  Sean  O'Malley  talked 
to  patrons. 


time  to  pray,"  responded 
Cardinal  O'Malley  who 
added  that  such  a  life  is  not 
easy,  "Even  the  Apostles  ran 
from  the  Cross." 

After  his  talk.  Cardinal 
O'Malley  .stopped  at  several 
tables,  chatting  and  mingling 
with  patrons.  He  left,  saying, 
"Let  Bad  Abbots  get  back  to 
business." 

Several  participants,  like 
Joe  Gallagher  of  Boston, 
described  the  Cardinal's 
presentation  as  powerful. 

"It  was  excellent.  The 
CiU'dinal  is  a  very  powerful 
speaker. " 

said  Gallagher,  adding 
that  the  points  Cardinal 
O'Malley  made  were 
effective  for  his  age  group  of 
"young  adults  (in)  a  culture 
that  does  not  provide  a  lot  of 
support  for  values." 

"It's  really  great.  They 
reach  out  to  people  of  my  age 
group,"  said  Laura 
McPhilemy  of  Canton  after 
the  formal  program. 

Similarly,  Hyun  Gu  said, 
"It  was  very  cool." 

Tom  Connelly  of  Hull 
who  represented  older 
participants  said  that 
Cardinal  O'Malley  spoke 
"profound  truth.  To  see  these 
young  people  here,  I'd  say 
I've  seen  the  future. 

Earlier  in  the  evening, 
Squantum   resident    Peg 


Murray  said  of  the  crowd, 
"I'm  looking  at  all  these 
young  kids.  I  do  think  it's  a 
good  idea." 

Murray  and  her  friend, 
Pauline  Kelly  of 
Germantown,  both  cited  the 
sadness  of  having  their 
churches  closed.  For  Murray, 
Star  of  the  Sea  closed  and 
Kelly  lost  St.  Boniface 
Church  in  Houghs  Neck. 

Even  before  Cardinal 
O'Malley  spoke.  Alana 
Crehan  of  Wollaston,  2 1 ,  said 
of  Theology  on  Tap,  "1  think 
it's  wonderful." 

This  was  Crehan 's  second 
visit  to  "Theology  on  Tap"  at 
Bad  Abbots.  She  described 
her  first  event  which  featured 
Sr.  Olga,  an  Iraqi  native  who 
is  now  a  Roman  Catholic  nun 
and  a  campus  minister  at 
Boston  University. 

"She  was  awesome,"  said 
Crehan  whose  friend  Laura 
Nash  of  Wollaston  added, 
"She  was  only  like  four  feet 
tall.  If  you  had  slipped  away 
from  the  Church,  you'd  be 
back  in  (after  hearing  her)." 

Crehan  and  Nash  enjoyed 
their  first  visit  to  Theology 
on  Tap  so  much  that  they 
invited  their  friend  Tricia 
Farolla,  Wollaston,  to  join 
them. 

According  to  the  current 
schedule.  Rev.  David 
Michael  will  discuss,  "An

Koch  Announcs  Community 
Service  Program  For 
City's  Young  People 


Robert  Fraser  Executive  VP 
At  South  Coastal  Bank 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  has  unveiled  a 
city  wide  community  service 
initiative  that  will  allow 
young  people  to  trade-in  vol- 
unteer time  for  summer  jobs 
with  the  city  and  local  busi- 
nesses. 

As  part  of  his  "Leadership 
Now"  plan,  Koch  announced 
the  new  volunteer  effort  dur- 
ing Tuesday's  first  mayoral 
debate  with  Mayor  William 
Phelan.  He  called  the  pro- 
gram an  expansion  of  current 
volunteer  programs  coupled 
with  several  new  opportuni- 
ties run  by  a  central  program. 

Koch  said  he  has  spoken 
to  a  number  of  business  lead- 
ers and  educators,  who  will 
be  mapping  out  the  program 
in  coming  months. 

"Community  .service  is  a 
big  part  of  what  it  means  to 
be  from  Quincy,  and  we  want 
to  do  more  to  instill  the  great 
pride  I  have  for  this  city  in 
our  young  people,"  Koch 
said.  "We're  working  with 
the  business  community,  and 
the  response  has  been  great" 
we're  working  with  educa- 


tors and  response  has  been 
great.  This  has  the  opportu- 
nity to  truly  be  a  great  pro- 
gram for  our  city  and  its 
youth." 

Koch,  the  city's  Park 
Commissioner  until  resign- 
ing his  job  to  run  for  mayor, 
coordinated  the  first  city  wide 
"Cleaner,  Greener  Day,"  vol- 
unteer clean-up  effort  and 
expanded  the  program  over 
the  next  17  years  to  make  it 
Quincy's  largest  volunteer 
event.  Koch's  family  started 
the  Koch  Club  more  than  60 
years  ago,  which  grew  into 
the  largest  civic,  charitable, 
and  youth  sports  organiza- 
tion in  Quincy. 

"Those  are  the  ideals  that 
this  program  is  framed 
around-everybody  willing  to 
help  and  willing  to  help  ev- 
eryone," Koch  said. 

Under  Koch's  plan, 
young  people  who  enlist  in 
the  volunteer  program  and 
dedicate  a  certain  amount  of 
hours  to  community  service 
will  be  moved  to  the  "top  of 
the  list"  for  job  openings  dur- 
ing the  summer  in  the  city. 


Several  businesses  have  al- 
ready committed  to  provid- 
ing jobs  for  young  people 
who  enroll  in  the  program. 

"It's  just  about  commu- 
nity service-it's  about  giving 
our  kids  another  constructive 
way  to  keep  them  involved 
and  away  from  drugs  and 
other  trouble,"  Koch  said. 
"And  it's  not  going  to  be  just 
about  our  young  people- 
we're  going  to  involve  all 
generations  of  Quincy  resi- 
dents." 

During  the  debate,  Koch 
also  announced  plans  to  hire 
a  full-time  health  educator 
for  the  city's  high  schools  to 
ensure  "every  single  9"'  and 
10"'  grader"  gets  a  full  pro- 
gram of  drug  education. 

"It  could  not  be  any 
clearer  that  this  city  has  an 
escalating  drug  program,  and 
we  have  to  do  more  to  edu- 
cate our  kids,"  Koch  said. 
"Education  is  one  piece  of  a 
larger  effort  we  plan  to  tackle 
our  drug  problem  head-on."

Mayor 


working  for  us. 


The  insiders  want  City  Hall  back. 

But  we've  come  to  far  to  let  that  happen. 

Bill  Phelan  has  stood  up  for  us,  for  our  seniors  and  for  our  kids. 

Independent,  effective,  and  tough  minded.  Bill  has  balanced  the 
budget,  held  the  line  on  taxes,  and  —  according  to  FBI  statistics  — 
made  Quincy  the  second  safest  city  in  the  state. 

Bill  Phelan  has  created  affordable  housing  for  seniors,  fixed  up  our 
parks  and  streets,  and  improved  our  schools  with  smaller  classes  and 
all-day  kindergarten. 

And  his  innovative  vision  for  smart  business  growth  at  Crown 
Colony,  Quincy  Center,  and  the  Shipyard  will  mean  tax  relief  for 
homeowners  and  new  business  and  good  jobs  for  the  future. 

Bill  Phelan  is  moving  Quincy  forward.  Don't  let  the  insiders  turn 
back  the  clock  to  record  deficits,  sweetheart  deals,  and  the  old  politics. 

Help  keep  a  good  Mayor  working  for  us. 

Vote  to  re-elect  Mayor  Bill  Phelan. 


Mayor  Bill  Phelan  with  his  wife  Tracey, 

and  their  children  Rachael,  Kerry, 

William  Arthur,  and  Brianne.

Patrick  Touts  Education  Plan  In  Merrymount  School  Visit 


(Cont'd  From  Pai>e  2) 

He  noted  that  there  arc 
1 25,(KK)  people  in  Massachu- 
setts lookinji  lor  work  right 
now  and  9( ),()()()  job  vacan- 
cies going  unlilled. 

"What  does  that  tell  you.'" 
lie  asked.  "Ivinployers  are 
saying  they  can't  InKl  people 
with  the  skills  lhc\  neeil  to 
ilo  the  )obs  we  have." 

I'atnck  e\|il.iine(.l  that, 
while  he  believes  education 
is  about  |>reparing  cili/ens, 
not  necessarily  employees, 
he  also  ajipieciates  that  edu- 
cation IS  the  gateway  to  a 
good  |oh. 


"The  Stats  bear  that  out," 
he  said.  "People  who  finish 
high  school  earn  an  average 
olSXOO.tMMJmoreoveralile- 
tiine  than  those  who  don't. 
That's  an  average,  which 
means  a  whole  bunch  ol 
people  earn  a  whole  lot  moie 
than  that. 

"Aiul  those  who  don't  lin- 
ish  high  school  present  a  dis- 
proportionate drain  on  social 
services,  everything  Irom 
tooil  stamp  programs  to  hous- 
ing subsidies  to 
homelessness. 

"I^ducation  can  make  a 
ililTerence.  I-Acrybody  says 


it.  I  have  lived  it." 

The  audience,  made  up  of 
School  Committee  members, 
educators  and  state  and  city 
officials,  responded  enthusi- 
.istically  during  the  questio 
and  answer  period  with 
pointed  comments,  chal- 
lenges and  suggestions. 

I'atnck  admitted  that  new 
revenues  uill  lia\e  to  be 
raised  to  finance  his  Readanil 
acknowledged  that  some 
mandates  imposed  by  the 
state  are  already  unfunded. 
But  he  asked  that  goals  not 
be  derailed  by  lack  of  fund- 
ing. 


"How  much  education  is 
necessary  to  enable  people 
to  move  forward  and  com- 
pete in  the  society  and  the 
economy?"  he  asked. 

"There  is  no  doubt  in  my 
mind  but  that  if  we  are  as 
ambitious  about  this  vision 
o\er  the  ne.xt  10  years  as  I 
want  us  to  be,  that  we  will 
ha\  e  to  raise  new  revenues."

Keenan  Wants  To  Review  DPW  Budgets 


Quincy  Councillor  at- 
Large  John  Keenan  intro- 
duced a  resolve  before  the 
City  Council  at  last  week's 
City  Council  meeting  call- 
ing upon  the  Commissioner 
of  Public  Works  and  the  City 
Auditor  to  report  to  the  City 
Council  on  the  status  of  the 
salary  budgets  within  the  De- 
partment of  Public  Works. 

Keenan  pointed  out  that 
at  the  end  of  the  last  fiscal 
year.  $284,000  had  to  he 
transferred  to  cover  deficits 
in  the  various  DPW  budgets. 

"We  are  several  months 
into  the  current  fiscal  year," 
noted  Keenan,  "so  now 
would  be  a  good  time  to  take 
a  look  at  the  budgets  of  these 
various  departments  to  make 
sure  they  arc  on  target  and 
will  not  overspend  like  last 
year." 

Keenan  also  wants  to  re- 
view how  much  was  spent  on 
the  hiring  of  summer  help. 

"The  Council  appropri- 
ated sufficient  funds  for  the 
hiring  of  summer  help."  said 
Keenan  after  the  meeting, 
"but  a  quick  check  of  the 
accounts  shows  that  those 
budgets  went  into  deficit  bc- 
I'ore  the  summer  ended  due 
lothenumberofsummerhclp 
employees  hired." 

Keenan,  who  serves  as 
chair  of  the  City  Council's 
Finance  Committee,  said  that 
a  review  of  the  DPW  budgets 
is  important  so  that  the  City 
can  avoid  financial  surprises 
in  June,  when  the  fiscal  year 
ends. 

"We  cannot  afford  to 
again  transfer  over  a  quarter 
million  dollars  to  balance  a 
budget  in  June.  Departments 
are  given  budgets  by  the 
Mayor,  which  are  reviewed 
and  approved  by  the  City 
Council.  The  department 
heads  and  the  administration 
must  ensure  that  the  depart- 
ments function  within  those 
budgets,  rather  than  come  in 
at  the  last  minute  for  more 
money  to  cover  year-long 
overspending." 

"We  must  do  whatever  we 
can,""  said  Keenan,  "to  live 
within  our  means." 

Keenan  has  continually 
expressed  his  concern  regard- 
ing the  funding  of  the  City's 
stabilization  account.  Ac- 
cording to  the  City's  bond 
advisor,  the  stabilization  ac- 
count should  have  a  balance 
of  $20  million  in  order  to 
offset  the  increases  in  the 
budget  necessary  to  pay  the

increased  borrowing  costs 
associated  with  the  high 
school.  The  City  now  has 
only  $  1 2.3  million  in  the  sta- 
bilization account,  according 
to  Keenan. 

"It's  not  enough,"  said 
Keenan.  "Departmental  bud- 
gets must  balance  at  yearend. 
If  City  departments  are  al- 


lowed to  overspend,  it  means 
fewer  funds  for  the  stabiliza- 
tion account."  Keenan  said 
that  if  the  stabilization  fund 
is  not  properly  funded  o\  er 
the  next  two  years,  then  tax- 
payers would  see  a  dramatic 
increase  in  their  property 
taxes  in  Fiscal  Years  2010 
and  2011. 


"We  will  review  the  bud- 
gets,' said  Keenan,  "and  put- 
ting the  departments  and  the 
Mayor  imi  notice  now.  hope- 
fully at  year  end.  funds  will 
be  available  to  mcrease  the 
stabilization  fund,  whicluan 
then  be  used  to  ease  the  bur- 
den on  taxpayers."

Salvation  Army  Needs  Volunteers  For  Christmas  Kettles 


The  Salvation  Army  in 
Quincy  is  seeking  volunteers 
to  help  staff  the  collection 
kettles  for  the  upcoming 
Christmas  season. 

The  kettles  will  be  at  vari- 
ous locations  around  the  city 
starting  Monday,  Nov.  19, 
through  Christmas  Eve, 
Monday,  Dec.  24. 

Major  Douglas  Jones,  co- 
commander  with  his  wife. 
Major  Linda  Jones,  of  the 
Salvation  Army  Quincy 
Temple  Corps,  6  Baxter  St., 
said  individuals  and  groups 
are  needed  as  volunteers  for 
a  day  or  part  of  a  day  on 
whatever  time  they  may  be 
able  to  donate. 

Volunteers  standing  at  a 
kettle  "may  at  the  same  time 
be  standing  in  honor  of  a 
loved  one  or  a  friend  as  a 
tribute  or  a  remembrance," 
Major  Jones  noted. 

Sought  are  volunteers 
from  churches,  service  clubs, 
companies  and  families  to 
help  raise  funds  to  help  oth- 
ers in  need  as  the  Salvation 
Army  has  done  in  the  Quincy 
area  for  more  than  1 00  years. 

Last  year  alone,  from  Oc- 
tober, 2006,  to  September, 
2007,  the  Salvation  Army  in 
Quincy  rendered  assistance 
to  3,293  people,  1,195  for 
food,  50  for  rent,  338  for 
utilities  for  a  grand  total  of 


MAJOR  DOUG  JONES 

1,496  cases. 

Typically,  a  group  of  vol- 
unteers stands  for  about  eight 
hours  a  day,  with  two  people 
from  the  group  volunteering 
for  one  or  two-hour  shifts 
together. 

It  takes  about  16  people 
to  handle  a  day  at  one-hour 
shifts.  Groups  can  work  as 
few  as  four  hours  if  they  are 
smaller  in  number. 

Just  before  the  turn  of  the 
20th  century,  the  Army 
started  collecting  money  in 
soup  kettles  following  a 
.shipwreck  in  San  Francisco. 
They  were  housing  and  feed- 
ing the  survivors  when  the 
soup  kettle  and  their  re- 
sources ran  dry. 

POLITICAL  ADVERTISEMENT 


An  inspired  Salvation 
Amiy  worker  took  the  empty 
kettle  i>ff  the  stove  and  ran 
to  the  street  to  ask  people  to 
"keep  the  pot  boiling"  by 
making  donations  to  help  the 
people  in  need  in  their  city. 

Today  the  Army  uses  red 
kettles  on  a  tripod  in  111 
countries  to  collect  funds  for 
people  in  need.  The  Quincy 
Salvation  Army  uses  the 
money  it  collects  to  meet  lo- 
cal needs  such  as  emergency 
foods  assistance,  toys  for 
children  and  gifts  for  shut- 
ins.  Major  Jones  said.

Army  in  Quincy  at  6 17-472-

It's  time  to  stop  talking  about  how  safe  Quincy  is  and  start  tackling  the  city's 
drug  and  crime  problems.  As  your  councilor-at-large,  Jennifer  McCauley  Logue 
will  push  for  a  more  visible  police  presence  in  Quincy  Center,  Wollaston,  Norfolk 
Downs  and  in  our  neighborhoods.  She'll  advocate  for  more  officers  to  be  assigned 
to  the  drug  unit.  And  she'll  work  with  state  and  congressional  leaders  to  secure 
more  funding  for  drug  treatment  programs.

"She's  a  fighter,"  said 
Nancy  Pedu//.i  McNuUy  who 
has  been  best  friends  with 
F'rin  since  North  Quincy 
High  School.  Hrin,  then  Hrin 
Horrigan,  graduated  a  year 
ahead  of  McNulty  with  the 
class  of  19S2. 

Back  then,  and,  even  now, 
Erin  loved  irank  Sinatra  so 
much  her  friends  called 
them.selves  the  "Rat  Pack" 
fashioned  after  the  tight 
group  Sinatra  buddies  which 
included  Sammy  Davis,  Jr., 
Dean  Martin  and  Joey 
Bishop. 

Frin's  class  will  be 
marking  their  25th 
anniversary  and  Horrigan  has 
used  that  e-mail  list  and  her 


own  class  list  to  get  the  word 
out  about  the  benefit  and 
raffle. 

"Thank  god  for  e-mail," 
said  McNulty  who  also 
created  a  '  website 
thefriendofcrin(^aol.com. 
The  response  has  been 
wonderful,  according  to 
McNulty  who  said  she  has 
heard  from  hundreds  of  North 
Quincy  alumni. 

In  the  meantime,  Erin 
began  her  third  week  of 
chemotherapy  and  last  week, 
she  was  hospitalized  with  a 
lever. 

"She's  lost  a  lot  of  weight. 
She  can't  drive,"  said 
Horrigan. 

While  she's  been  having 
chemotherapy  at  Crown 
Colony,  her  parents  and  sister 
have  helping  with  the 
youngsters  so  that  David  can 
go  to  work. 


"We  rotate  days  getting 
them  off  to  school  and  pre- 
school," said  Horrigan, 
describing  the  schedule  that 
she  and  Erin's  parents. 
Richard  and  Diane  Horrigan 
of  Quincy,  have  adopted. 

"She  likes  to  keep  her 
routine,"  said  Shannon  who 
added  that  "By  3  p.m.,  she's 
exhausted." 

Erin,  her  brother  Richard, 
and  three  sisters,  Kim,  Karen 
and  Shannon,  all  grew  up  in 
North  Quincy.

Ward  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  wants  a  greater 
MBTA  police  presence  in 
ami  around  the  North  Quincy 
1  station 

In  a  letter  written  this 
week  to  the  Oeneral  Man- 
ager of  the  Massachusetts 
Bay  Transportation  Author- 
ity (MBTA),  Ward  6  City 
Councillor  Brian  McNamee 
has  requested  better  MBTA 
policing  in  and  around  llic 
North  Quincy  train  station. 

In  his  letter  to  .MB'IA 
(jeneral  Manager  Daniel 
Grabauskas,  McNamee  cited 
the  harassment  of  a  minor  on 
the  premises  of  the  North 
Quincy  station  on  Sept.  28. 
McNamee  said  the  incident 
was  resolved  by  the  interven- 
tion of  a  private  citi/x-n,  but 
that  the  situation  could  have 
been  avoided  with  proper 
MBTA  security. 

McNamee  said  his  has 
successfully  put  an  end  to  the 
use  of  the  North  Quincy  sta- 
tion as  the  pick-up  and  drop- 
off location  of  Boston  Pub- 
lic Health  Commission  cli- 
ents who  utilize  health  and 
human  service  facilities  on 
Long  Island.  He  said,  how- 
ever, more  work  needs  to  be 
done. 

"There  are  still  agencies 


renting  facilities  on  Long  is- 
land from  the  city  of  Boston 
that  use  the  North  Quincy 
station  as  a  pick-U[)  location 
for  tlicir  clients,  ■  said 
McNamee.  "On  aii\  gi\en 
day  one  can  observe  the  cli 
ents  of  these  other  programs 
loitLMing.  sleeping  on  the 
sKJevvalk  or  harassing  com- 
muters, including  our  high 
school  students  who  utilize 
the  \."  McNamee  says  these 
factors  make  the  North 
Quincy  station  a  particularly 
intimidating  as  well  as  nsk\ 
place  lor  .North  Quincy  High 
School  students. 


"This  IS  not  a  population 
you  want  your  high  school 
age  children  near  We  do  not 
know  the  criminal  back- 
grounds ol  these  individuals 
or  their  current  behavioral 
stability," 

"1  have  respectfully  re- 
i|uested  Mr.  (irabauskas  to 
maintain  a  police  presence  at 
the  North  Quincy  MBTA  sta- 
tion, just  as  he  maintains  a 
security  of  our  school  chil- 
dren IS  an  issue  that  I  take 
very  senously,  and  I  will  take 
whatever  action  is  necessary 
to  protect  them."

known  how  the  candidate 
telt  about  school  unil'ornis.

said  Phelan  "But  it  is  inipoi- 
tant  lor  students  to  exhibit 
their  indiN  iduaht\. 

"1  c.int  say  1  would  pro- 
pose unitornis  at  the  high 
school  and  middle  school 
levels  but  there  should  be  a 
dress  code  and  decorum  that 
IS  follow  ed  bv  the  students." 


"1  belie\ e  we  need  a  mini- 
mum dress  code."  said  Koch. 
"We  don't  need  to  go  down 
the  road  to  a  full  unilorm.  We 
ought  to  ha\e  a  di.scussion 
in\  oh mg  the  student  body." 

Student  Chris  Ng  asked 
the  candidates,  if  pressed  for 
money,  what  is  the  first  de- 
partment the\  w  ould  cut. 

Koch  said  he  w  ould  "pn- 
oriti/e  the  budget  based  on 
public  safety  and  public  edu- 
cation.. Then  we  can  look  at 
all  the  other  areas  of  general 
government. 

"It's  so  important  to  man- 
age well,  to  get  the  most  out 


o\'  e\ery  dollar  we  spend, 
rhat's  why  it  is  important 
not  to  miss  deadlines  for 
school  projects  where  we 
lost  millions  of  dollars." 

Throughout  the  debate. 
Koch  insisted  that  as  mayor. 
Phelan  missed  a  deadline  for 
state  funding  for  Central 
Middle  School  which 
Phelan  denied. 

Phelan  in  turn  accused 
Koch  of  advocating  con- 
struction of  the  new  Quincy 
High  School  on  a  toxic  waste 
dump,  w  hich  Koch  denied. 

"When  we  took  office," 
said  Phelan.  "we  looked  to 


educatiiMi  last.  We  reduced 
the  pasioll  everywhere  ex- 
cept the  School  Department. 
We  cut  over  100  employees 
on  city  side,  not  school  side. 

"We  were  able  to  cut  the 
budget  without  hurting  the 
schools."

Because  Mayor  Phelan  refused  everyone's  advice,  blamed  others  for 
his  mistakes,  and  fought  with  the  state. 

.  Mayor  Phelan's  original  high  school  plan  in  2003,  located  at  his 
own  hand-picked  site,  was  to  cost  taxpayers  $8  million. 

.  His  second  plan,  filed  three  years  later,  will  cost  $54  Million  for 
taxpayers.  The  most  expensive  high  school  per  student  in  the  state. 

.  That's  $46  million  in  increased  taxes  because  Mayor  Phelan  pointed 
fingers  for  six  years  instead  of  providing  leadership.

How? 

Because  Mayor  Phelan  failed  to  file  the  required  application  w  ith  the 
state  in  2003. 

.  He  then  hid  this  infomiation  from  e\  erv  elected  official  and  the 
public  for  almost  two  years. 

.  And  when  his  deception  was  discovered,  he  again  pointed  tlngers, 
attacked  others,  and  still  to  this  day  refuses  to  accept  responsibility 
for  his  failure. 

•  He  STILL  has  no  plan  to  rebuild  this  school,  which  the  state  now 
calls  ''medieval"  with  staircases  **untlt  for  human  passage.''

Evacuation  Plan  A  Must  For  Restaurants 


\()u  know  It  doesn't  take 
long  for  something  \o  occur 
prompting  an  article  from 
me.  Once  something  is 
brought  to  my  attention 
through  a  conversation  or 
news  report,  there's  the  urge 
to  use  it  to  con\e\  some  as- 
pect iit  tire  pie\ention  to  the 
public. 

Reading  excerpts  from 
that  tragic  West  Roxbury 
flic;  twi>  aspects  i>f  that  inci- 
dent caught  m\  attention. 
Ihe  fire  took  place  in  a  res- 
taurant. We  ins[xxt  man\  o^ 
the  bars,  restaurants  and 
nightclubs  within  this  cit\ 
attempting  to  con\e\  the 
importance  of  adhering  to 
code  and  maintaining  a  safe 
premise  .^65  da\  s  a  year. 

There  are  man\  things  we 
look  at  dunng  an  inspection 
while  there  is  much  that  we 
emphasize  as  uell.  For  in- 
stance, we  convex  to  owners 
and  managers  that  it  is  im- 
perati\e  that  they  have  some 
exacuation  plan  in  place  in 
the  event  they  w  itness  smoke 
or  fire  within  their  establish- 
ment. We  emphasize  the  iin- 


portance  of  evacuating  pa- 
trons immediately  and  with- 
out delay. 

This  incident  in  West 
Roxbury  demonstrates  that 
importance.  The  jtatrons 
were  evacuated,  while  the 
traged\  appeared  to  occur 
soon  after  v\  hen  the  fire  ap- 
paratus ani\ed.  I'hat  would 
haxe  taken  mere  minutes. 
Ihe  loss  was  great  enough  as 
It  was.  how  nuich  greater  if 
there  had  been  hesitation  in 
exacuation  o'i  patrons  as 
well. 

.Msc^  emphasized,  is  the 
impiMtance  o{  scheduled 
hood  and  ductw  ork  cleaning 
in  commercial  kitchens.  .Ap- 
parenth  there  was  an  issue 
with  these  in  that  West 
Roxbuiv  restaurant.  During 
our  inspections,  the  ov\ners 
sign  a  document  acknowl- 
edging that  they  are  aw  are  i>f 
the  code  pertaining  to  hoods 
and  ductwork  cleaning,  the 
need  for  an  c\  acuation  plan 
and  any  other  code  pertain- 
ing to  their  establishment.  It 
is  all  specified  in  black  and 
w  hite  to  encourage  that  year 


round  compliance. 

That  State  code  defers  to 
the  NFPA  Standard  i)6.  In 
that  hoods,  ductwork,  etc., 
must  be  cleaned  to  bare 
metal  at  lrei|uent  intervals 
and  inspected  every  six 
im>nths.  F-or  years  now  es- 
tablishments ha\e  received 
llyers  pertaining  to  this  and 
all  other  code.  It  is  empha- 
sized as  v\ell  iluring  each 
yearly  mspectuMi.  If  that 
emphasis  wasn't  enough, 
this  tragic  lire  in  West 
Roxbury  should  be. 

Once  again  1  take  this  op- 
poiiunity  to  impress  upon  the 
i>v\ners  oi  these  establish- 
ments that  we  are  here  to 
answer  any  questions  that 
they  may  have  regarding  the 
requirements  of  code  for 
their  establishments.  For 
years  now  e\ery  opportunity 
has  been  taken  to  detail  the 
specific  requirements  in 
writing  for  their  reference. 

Here  is  another  example 
explaining  why  we  have 
been  so  vigilant  in  doing  so. 
Thank  you  I

the  status  quo. 

"It  w  ould  be  nice  to  keep  it 
just  as  It  is."  said  Folsolm. 
but  added  that  it  would  be 
naive  to  think  the  propertv 
will  remain  undeveloped. 

"Rezoning  to  PUD  is  the 
best  option  for  the 
neighborhood,"  said  Janet 
Lewis  who  noted  that  the 
owners  "...have  been 
marketing  it  for  at  least  10 


years. 

"An  indusinal  (zone)  is 
antiquated,"  said  Ed 
DiTullio.  who  believes 
residents  are  mistaken  if  they 
think  that  "things  will  stay 
the  way  they  area." 

As  for  the  city  purchasing 
the  property,  that' s  not  going 
to  happen,  said  DiTullio  who 
believes  that  PUD  zoning 
"gives  us  a  stronger  voice...." 


City  Council  President 
Doug  Gutroclo.sed  the  public 
hearing  on  the  issue  which 
will  be  discussed  in  a  council 
session  at  a  later  date. 

The  city's  Assessor's 
office  lists  the  property  owner 
as  Rossignol  Corporation. 
Local  residents  told  the 
council  that  the  property  is 
being  marketed  at  $17 
million.

Mayor ^s  Letter  Sparks 

Barrage  Of  Phone  Calls 

To  Retiree's  Representative 


Code  Enforcement  Officer 
Praised  For  His  Work 


By  LAURA  (.RIFFIN 

Over  100  contused 
retirees  called  Stephen 
Moynihan's  hoiiie  in  the  24 
hours  alter  they  received  a 
letter  signed  by  Mayor 
William  Phelan  discussing 
the  retirees"  health  insurance 
henelits,  Moynihan  told  the 
City  council  Monday  night. 

"It  ( the  mayor' s  letter) just 
scared  a  lot  of  people.  A  lot 
ol  them  were  crying  on  the 
telephone,"  Moynihan  said. 

"He  sent  a  letter  to  2500 
people  urging  them  to  call 
me,"  Moynihan  said,  noting 
that  he  did  not  know  the  letter 
was  being  sent  out  and  that 
he  is  a  private  individual  not 
employed  by  the  city. 

"The  telephone's  been 
ringing  off  the  hook.  How 
would  you  like  to  have  25(X) 
people  calling  you?" 
Moynihan  said,  adding, 
"Something's  lacking  at  the 
higher  level." 

Moynihan,  the  founder 
and  president  of  the  1500 
member  Quincy  Retirees 
Association  (QRA)  was 
appointed  last  spring  to 
represent  the  city's  2500 
retirees  on  the  Public 
Employees  Committee  or 
PEC.  Each  union  will  have  a 
representative. 

Moynihan  said  that  his 
wife  had  to  field  the  barrage 
of  phone  calls  while  he  was 
at  the  Boston  College  -  Notre 
Dame  game  in  Indiana  over 
the  weekend  with  his  son. 

"I  have  yet  to  recei\  e  the 
letter,"  said  Moynihan  who 
added,  "I'd  say  this  is 
harassment." 

Phelan' s October  1 2  letter 
included  Moynihan's 
telephone  number  and  stated 
in  boldfaced  type,  "This 
protection  oi'  your  (health) 
benefits  does  not  exist  now." 

Near  the  end  of  the  letter. 
Phelan  wrote,  "I  urge  \oii  to 
contact  Mr.  Stephen  H. 
Moynihan,  the  state- 
appointed  designee  on  your 
behalf..." 

The  letter  then  punted 
Moynihan's  telephone 
number  and  address  and 
described  the  benefits  o[' 
encouraging  him  to  \ote  in 
lavor  i>f  transferring  the 
City's  health  insurance  to  the 
slate 

Mo\nihan.  75,  told  the 
City  Ci>uncil  Monday  that 
the  calls  were  still  coming  in 
even  as  he  spi>ke  to 
councillors.  He  said  his  w  itc 


STKPHKN  MOYNIHAN 

of  57  years  was  still  fielding 
the  calls  when  he  left. 

Moynihan  has  repeatedly 
said  that  he  has  not  decided 
on  how  he  will  vote  regarding 
the  state  insurance  plan  as 
the  decision  requires  study 
and  negotiation. 

When  the  PEC  is  formed, 
members  will  begin  coalition 
bargaining  with  the  city  and 
vote  on  whether  the  city  will 
join  the  state's  health 
insurance  program. 

Phelan  has  said  the  city 
could  save  $6  to  $8  million 
dollars  and  employees, 
themselves,  could  save  over 
$1  million  in  premiums  a 
year. 

Right  now,  Moynihan  said 
that  he  is  the  only  official 
member  of  the  PEC  as  none 
of  the  city's  unions  have 
chosen  their  designee. 

"I'm  the  only  one  who 
can  vote,"  said  Moynihan 
who  noted  that  he's  attended 
all  meetings  on  the  health 
insurance  program. 

As  a  city  employee. 
Moynihan  oversaw  the 
school's  administrative 
budget  tor  over  2 1  \ears.  He 
has  said  he  intends  to  studv 
and  negotiate  all  the  issues 
"1  understand  both  sides." 

In  recent  weeks, 
Moynihan  asked  cu\  officials 
toraccess  to  the  list  of  retirees 
but  was  turned  down  due  to 
pnvacy  issues.  He  had  also 
asked  if  the  cit\  would  mail 
his  intonnation  packet  at 
QR.\'s  expense.

Roberta  Kety  told  councillors 
that  she  composed  the  letter, 
tlid  not  contact  Moynihan  in 
advance,  and  has  repeatedly 
apologized  for  his  publicly 
listed  telephone  number  in 
the  letter. 

Kety  also  said  that  she 
believed  Moynihan's  chief 
concern  was  letting  the 
retirees  know  that  he  had  not 
yet  committed  his  vote.  Kety 
said  that  she  tried  to  do  that 
in  the  October  12  letter. 

City  councillors  were 
sympathetic  to  Moynihan's 
plight.  Ward  1  C'ouncillor 
Leo  Kelly  stated  he  found 
Moynihan's  predicament 
"upsetting." 

Ward  3  Councilor  Kevin 
Coughlin  said  he  could 
understand  that  retirees  could 
be  fearful  after  reading  the 
letter  while  Councillor 
Joseph  Finn  called  the  letter 
"an  advocacy  letter." 

Finn  said  the  letter  initially 
creates  concern  and  fear  and 
then  the  subtle  urging  to 
contact  this  person 
(Moynihan)  for  action. 

"Ijust  don"  t  think  it's  nght 
or  fair  or  just."  said  Finn, 
adding,  "The  more  I  read  it, 
the  less  I  can  believe  it." 

Ward  4  Councillor  Jav 
Davis  told  Ket\  that  she  faced 
a  mammoth  task  in  educating 
employees,  but  that  process 
was  essential  in  getting  the 
word  out  on  the  state 
program. 

Councillor  John  Keenan 
suggested  that  the  mailing 
costs  and  contacts  costs  for 
the  distributing  the  QR.\ 
health  benefits  information 
should  he  picked  up  b>  the 

C!t\. 

"The>  need  the 
information,"  said  Keenan 
who  noted  the  QR.\  is  a 
pn\ate  organization  and 
shouldn't  ha\c  to  hear  the 
burden  of  the  costs 

"We  have  attempted  to 
make  those  o\ enures."  said 
Kety  "Hopefully,  we  will 
prevail"

tour  advice  about 
.  using  string,  putty 
tape  in  plumbing  is  a 
little  off  the  mark.  Those 
three  products  are  quite 
different,  and  are  not 
interchangeable  at  all. 

You  use  tape  (or  pipe 
dope)  to  seal  joints  made 
between  male  threads  and 
female  threads,  such  as 
pipe  (with  male  threads) 
threaded  into  a  fitting 
(with  female  threads.) 

You  use  string  for  pack- 
ing. This  goes  around  the 
stem  of  a  faucet;  it  does 
NOT  go  on  threads.  It  gets 
compressed  as  you  tighten 
the  packing  nut,  thereby 
making  a  seal  against  the 
stem  itself. 

Putty  is  primarily  for 
sealing  the  rim  of  drains, 
and  secondarily  for  setting 
fixtures  such  as  faucets 
and  toilets.  It  does  NOT  go 
on  threads.  —  Nick  F.,  via

in  your  drain  —  it's  the 
sewer  fly  or  drain  fly. 

We  had  a  problem  when 
we  first  moved  into  our 
pre-Civil  War  house  with 
no  basement.  There  was  a 
leak  in  the  sewer  pipe, 
which  was  leaking  into  the 
dirt  crawl  spate.  ...  In  the 
spring  when  there  is  more 
rain,  sewer  flies  came  into 
our  downstairs  bathroom 
in  droves. 

Our  insect  man  knew 
exactly  what  they  were; 
however,  he  took  a  sample 
and  sent  some  flies  to  the 
Rutgers  University  insect 
department  for  positive 
identification.  Once  the 
pipe  was  fixed  and  bleach 
poured  on  the  affected 
area,  we  didn't  have  any 
more  flies. 

Here  is  a  link  to  a  Web

er flies:  http://  www.doy-

A  Job  Well  Done 

( This  incident  begun  in  Milton  and  ended  in  Quincy) 

On  Tuesday,  Oct.  2.  at  approximateh  3  p.m.,  Milton  Police 
Motorcycle  Officer  Mark  Cimildoro  was  on  Granite  Avenue 
for  traffic  enforcement  when  he  observed  a  Dodge  Intrepid 
w  Ith  Maine  plates.  After  running 
the  plate  via  Communications, 
he  learned  that  the  \ chicle  was 
reported  stolen. 

As  Ofticer  Cimildoro  fol- 
lowed the  \  chicle,  he  updated 
Communications  and  pro\  ided  a 
description  of  the  dri\er.  who 
w  as  the  sole  occupant  After  the 
suspect  \  ehicle  stopped  at  the  in- 
lersection  oi  Franklin  and 
Bassett  Streets,  the  driver 
quickls   accelerated  towards 

Adams  Street.  Officer  Cimildoro  put  his  blue  lights  and  siren 
on  but  the  suspect  tailed  to  stop. 

Milton  Officer  Ri>n  Purcell.  working  a  road  detail,  heard 
the  incident  on  the  radio  and  stopped  traffic  as  the  suspect 
approached.  The  suspect  vehicle  then  went  through  the  con- 
struction zone  in  the  wrong  lane  and  almost  hit  Officer  Purcell, 
w  ho  had  tried  to  w  a\  e  the  suspect  over.  Officer  Purcell  )umf)ed 
out  of  the  way  lo  avoid  being  hit.  The  suspect  increased  speed 
and  then  reached  another  construction  site  in  front  of  the  East 
.Milton  Fire  Station,  where  Lt.  James  O'Neil  also  tried  to  stop 
the  vehicle.  The  suspecj  drove  at  Lt.  O'Neil  forcing  him  to 
jump  out  of  the  street. 

On  the  other  end  of  the  construction  site.  Milton  Officer 
Lundrigan  also  had  to  jump  out  of  the  way  of  the  fleeing  sus- 
pect Once  out  of  the  construction  zone,  the  susf»ect  increased 
speed  and  dro\ e  on  the  wrong  side  of  the  road  and  violated 
many  traffic  lights  as  he  attempted  to  escape.  Milton  Police 
Dispatch  notified  surrounding  communities  as  the  suspect 
dro\e  out  of  Milton  into  Dorchester  and  then  into  Quincy, 
crossing  over  the  Nef>onset  Bridge  and  onto  Quincy  Shore 
Drive. 

Milton  Officer  Cimildoro  informed  units  that  the  suspect 
turned  onto  East  Squantum  Street,  to  Hummock  Street  and 
Williams  Street.  Milton  Police  lost  sight  of  the  suspect  ve- 
hicle w  hen  he  drove  over  the  curb  and  sidew  alk  to  slip  by  an 
oncoming  trash  truck,  which  also  blocked  passage  of  police 
units.  Quincy  Police  Officers  were  now  in  the  area  looking 
for  the  suspect  \ehicle,  believed  to  be  headed  south  towards 
Wollaston  Center  Officers'  John  Grazioso  and  Don  Sautter 
were  waved  over  by  two  females  on  Hamilton  Street,  who 
said  that  they  saw  the  suspect  vehicle  turn  onto  Hamilton  from 
Billings  Road  at  a  high  rale  of  speed.  They  said  that  the  front 
bumper  fell  off  the  car.  The  females  said  that  lhe\  saw  the 
same  driver  w aJking  down  Hamilton  Street  and  he  appeared 
nervous,  constantly  looking  dow  n  the  street. 

The  officers  drove  down  Cummings  Avenue  and  confronted 
a  male  matching  the  description  given  out  by  Milton  and  that 
of  the  females  The  officers  noted  the  suspect  was  nervous, 
sweaty  and  confused.  The  suspect  originally  said  he  w  as  from 
New  Hampshire  and  that  he  w  as  just  dropped  off  by  a  friend

to  go  lo  another  friends  house  on  Beach  Street,  even  though 
he  was  headed  in  the  wrong  direction.  When  asked  for  a  li- 
cense, the  suspect  produced  a  .Maine  identification  card. 

While  Officer  Sautter  checked  lo  see  if  there  were  any  w  ar- 
ranls  on  the  suspect.  Detectives"  Jim  Lencki  and  Karyn  Barkas 
arrived  on  scene  and  searched  the  suspect  and  found  a  set  of 
keys,  one  of  which  had  the  "Dodge"  symbol. 

Officer  Dan  Francis  informed  the  Officers  that  he  found 
the  stolen  vehicle  at  the  intersection  of  Muirhead  and  Beach 
Street,  which  are  only  a  few  blocks  away  from  w  here  the  sus- 
pect w  as  apprehended.  State  Police  Trooper  Mark  Zych  trans- 
ported the  suspect  over  to  the  vehicle's  location,  where  Milton 
Officer  Cimildoro  identified  the  suspect  as  the  driver  and  the 
car  as  the  one  he  reported  stolen.  The  key  on  the  suspect  was 
placed  into  the  ignition  of  the  stolen  car  and  it  started  the  car. 
Trooper  Zych  transported  the  suspect  back  to  the  Milton  Po- 
lice Department,  where  he  was  booked  on  charges  of  "Re- 
ceiving a  Stolen  Motor  Vehicle,  3  Counts  of  Assault  by  Means 
of  a  Dangerous  Weapon  (motor  vehicle),  Unlicensed  Opera- 
tion of  a  Motor  Vehicle,  Reckless  Operation  of  a  Motor  Ve- 
hicle and  Failure  to  Stop  for  Police."  During  the  booking 
process,  the  suspect  apologized  for  driving  at  the  Officers  at 
the  construction  sites.  In  addition  to  the  above  charges,  the 
suspect  also  had  7  outstanding  felony  warrants  in  the  State  of 
Maine,  so  he  was  also  charged  with  "Fugitive  from  Justice." 
Nice  Work  to  all  Officers  and  Departments  involved! 

J 

CAR  BRfiAKS:  Generally,  break-ins  to  cars  that  are  un- 
locked are  often  committed  by  youths  who  go  Joor  to  door 
looking  for  an  easy  entry,  then  ransack  the  interior  looking 
for  anything  of  value,  including  coins  to  steal.  Then  there  are 
the  criminals  who  look  into  the  interior  of  the  car  looking  for 
items  of  value,  then  smash  a  window  to  open  the  door 

The  most  popular  items  being  taken  are  technology-based, 
such  as  l-Pods,  GPS's  and  laptops.  By  removing  valuable 
items  from  plain  view  inside  the  vehicle,  the  criminal  will 
move  on  to  the  next  vehicle.  Another  point  to  consider;  if  you 
leave  a  box  or  bag  inside  the  passenger  area  of  the  vehicle 
knowing  that  the  items  have  no  value,  it  still  may  peak  the 
interest  of  a  criminal  to  find  out  what  is  in  the  package.  Once 
inside  the  car,  the  criminal  may  not  get  anything  of  value,  but 
you  may  have  a  broken  window  to  contend  with  w  hen  you  go 
to  use  your  car  again.  Bottom  line:  Lock  your  car,  remove 
temptations  by  bringing  valuables  inside  and  conceal  pack- 
ages, etc.  in  the  trunk.

from  a  dilTicuh  start  to  their 
season  to  win  two  of  its  last 
three  matches.  The  team 
currently  has  a  record  of  3-9. 

The  Presidents  have  been 
led  all  season  long  by  the 
leadership  and  play  of  tri- 
captains  Kevin  Shea,  Ricky 
Salvucci  and  Mike  LeBel. 
Add  in  the  emergence  of 
sophomore  Tim  Young,  and 
fourth-year  head  coach  Lou 
Venturellis  team  has  often 
held  leads  after  the  first  two 
gioups  of  golfers  have 
finished  then"  rounds. 

"Kevin  has  been 
outstandmg  all  season  for  us, 
and  I  was  counting  on  Ricky 
and  Mike  to  come  through 
for  us,  but  tiie  real  ^urprisc 
has  been  the  improvement 
Young  has  shown,'    said

Venturelli. 

According  to  Venturelli, 
the  addition  of  senior  Tony 
Salaris  has  been  a  nice 
surpri.se  and  the  improved 
play  of  senior  Sean 
McDonald,  juniors  Evan 
Luongo  and  Will  Head  and 
sophomore  Kevin  Keith  has 
given  the  Presidents  a 
lormidable  group  of  eight 
golfers.

"We  haven't  really  put  it 
together  yet.  but  I  like  the 
eight  golfers  we  can  put  out 
on  a  golf  course  on  a  given 


day.  We're  working  hard  on 
focusing  on  each  shot  and 
managing  the  course,"  he 
added. 

The  team's  slow  start  has 
allowed  Venturelli  to  play 
all  of  his  golfers  in  a  varsity 
match  this  fall.  Senior  Nick 
Masone,  junior  Bryan  Ash, 
who  came  through  with  a  big

Stephen  Kamb  and  Scott

my  approach  game." 

Shea,  who  has  been  a 
member  of  the  Quincy  High 
School  golf  team  since  he 
was  a  freshman,  shoots  in  the 
mid-70s  on  average,  but  he 
knows  that  if  he  wants  to 
continue  playing  in  college 
and  beyond,  he  needs  to 
continue  working  on  all 
aspects  of  his  game. 

"1  am  looking  to  go  to 
college  somewhere  down 
South  and  play  college  golf," 
Shea  added.  "My  ultimate 
goal  is  to  play  professionally. 
But  1  know  that  that  takes  a 
lot  of  hard  work  and  practice. 
That  is  one  of  the  main 
reasons  that  I  played  so  much 
golf  and  had  myself  such  a 
busy  summer.  The  more 
tournaments  I  can  play  in, 
the  better  I  am  going  to  get.  1 
challenged  myself  this 
summer  against  some  of  the 
best  golfers  around,  and  did 
well." 

So  far  this  fall.  Shea,  who 
is  a  team  tri-captain,  has 
carried  Quincy  in  every 
match  played.  And  according 
to  head  coach  Lou  Venturelh, 
Shea  is  enjoying  his  best 
season  to  date: 

"Kevin  has  been 
outstanding  all  season  for  us. 
He  has  lost  only  one  match  in 
match  play,  and  he  has  been 
the  medallist  in  all  but  two  of 
our  matches.  He  has  been 
phenomeiud."

their  iwo  possessions  in  the 
lust  quarter,  but  the  North 
QuincN  defense  held  the 
Dolphins"  offense  in  check 
the  rest  of  the  quarter. 

In  the  second  quarter,  the 
Red  Raiders  took  advantage 
of  some  sloppy  play  from  the 
Dolphins.  After  taking  the 
opening  possession  into 
North  Quincy  territory,  D-Y 


FOOTBALL 


was  forced  to  give  the  ball 
back  to  the  Red  Raiders  after 
missing  on  several  passes 
over  the  middle  of  the  field, 
and  used  solid  run  defense 
.igainst  Jainiel  lo  halt  the 
drive. 

The  Raiders  received  the 
subsequent  punt  and,  behind 
quarterback  Dennis  Martin 
and  the  running  of  .Ion  Cahill 
and  Danny  .lackson,  dr(>ve 
ihe  ball  ilow  n  the  field.  With

^-6.  rhe  Red  Raiders  Tailed 
on  the  extra  point  aitenipi. 
and  entered  ihe  iialttime 
break  down  7-(i 

In  the  ihiidcjuarter.  neither 
team's  offense  could  get 
anxthing  rolling,  as  the  Red 
Raiders  defense  packed  the 
line  and  did  not  allow  .Iamiel 
to  get  anything  going  on  the 
ground.  D-Y  went  three  and 
out  twice  in  the  quarter,  but 
the  Red  Raider  offense  could 
also  not  find  any  rhythm  on 
either  of  their  two  third 
quarter  possessions  and  were 
forced  to  punt  the  ball  away 
right  at  the  end  of  the  period. 


The  Dolphins  scored  early 
and  often  (21  points)  in  the 
final  quarter,  and  it  was 
.Iamiel  who  did  most  of  the 
damage  against  a  tired  North 
Quincy  defense.  He  scored 
from  four  yards  out  on  his 
team's  first  possession  to  put 
them  up  1 4-6  and  after  North 
Quincy  went  nowhere  on 
their  ensuing  drive,  .Iamiel 
capped  off  a  se\  en  play  dnve 
w  Ith  another  touchdown  run 
from  two  yards  out  to  put  the 
game  out  of  reach  at  2 1  -6.

for  the  final  touchdown. 

■'.Iamiel  is  an  outstanding 
football  player,  and  we  could 
not  find  a  v\  a\  to  stop  him  all

North  Quincy  will  play

Presidents  Fall  To  Rams 


The  Quincy  Presidents 
may  ha\e  lost  on  the  road 
against  Marshfield  High 
School  24-6  last  Friday  night, 
but  the  team,  after  being 
down  1 7-0  at  halftime  to  the 
#8  team  in  Eastern 
Massachusetts,  held  its  own 
in  the  second  half. 

With  the  loss,  Quincy's 
record  stands  at  1  -4  overall, 
1-3  in  the  Atlantic  Coast 
League. 

The  game  did  not  start  out 
the  way  Quincy  would  have 
liked.  The  opening  kick  off 
pinned  the  Presidents  deep 
inside  their  own  territory,  and 
after  two  consecutive  plays 
gained  negative  yardage,  the 
Rams  sacked  quarterback 
Lance  Peterson  in  the  end 
zone  for  a  safety  and  an  early 
2-0  advantage. 

Marshfield  returned  the 
punt  following  the  safety  into 
Quincy '  s  side  of  the  field  and 
drove  the  ball  inside  the 
twenty  of  the  Presidents. 
Running  back  Steve  Lunn 
(three  TDs)  punched  it  in 
from  one-yard  out  to  cap  off 
the  drive.  Dennis  McCarthy 
converted  on  the  two-point 
conversion  to  put  the  Rams 
up  1 0-0  at  the  end  of  the  first 
quarter. 

Quincy  had  their  chances 


on  offense  to  respond  to  the 
early  Marshfield  attack,  but 
failed  to  score  on  two 
occasions.  After  Marshfield 
scored  to  go  up  10-0,  the 
Presidents,  behind  the  play 
of  quarterback  Lance 
Peterson  and  running  back 
Diego  Arredondo,  drove  the 
ball  all  the  way  down  to  the 
Rams'  five-yard  line.  But  on 
first-and-goal  from  the  five, 
Quincy  failed  on  four 
attempts  to  get  the  ball  over 
the  goal  line. 

Marshfield  responded  to 
the  Presidents'  missed 
opportunity  by  driving  back 
down  the  field  and  scoring 
on  another  four  yard 
touchdown  run  by  Lunn. 

After  missing  a  golden 
opportunity  to  cut  into  the 
10-0  deficit  and  seeing  the 
Rams  go  up  17-0,  the 
Presidents  defense  held  the 
Rams  high-flying  offense  in 
check,  and  with  time  running 
out  in  the  half,  got  the  ball 
back. 

With  the  seconds  ticking 
off  the  clock,  Quincy  once 
again  drove  the  ball  into 
Marshfield  territory,  but  a  last 
second  pass  in  the  back  of  the 
end  zone  was  dropped  and 
Quincy  entered  the  halftime 
break  down  by  a  score  of  1 7- 


0. 

The  second  half  was 
evenly  played,  as  both  teams 
struggled  to  get  any  offense 
going  early  in  the  third 
quarter.  But  after  Quincy 
went  three  and  out  for  the 
second  straight  time, 
Marshfield  put  the  nail  in  the 
coffin  with  another  extended 
scoring  drive.  Lunn  capped 
off  his  impressive  day  with 
another  one-yard  touchdown 
run  to  extend  the  lead  to  24- 
0. 

Quincy  would  finally  put 
some  points  on  the  score 
board  late  in  the  fourth  on  a 
22-yard  pass  from  Peterson 
to  wide  receiver  Anthony 
Radatz. 

The  schedule  does  not  get 
any  easier  for  the  Presidents 
this  week  as  they  are  back  on 
the  road  against  undefeated 
Dennis-Yarmouth  High 
School.  The  Dolphins, 
coming  off  a  28-6  victory 
over  North  Quincy,  are  4-0 
in  league  play,  one  game 
behind  Marshfield  for  ACL 
supremacy.  D-Y  is  averaging 
close  to  four  touchdowns  a 
game  (27.5  points  per  game) 
and  running  back  Joe  Jamiel 
has  scored  14  touchdowns  to 
lead  Division  1 A  in  scoring. 
Their  defense  is  allowing  14 
point  per  game.

City  Tennis  Tournament  Champions  Crowned 


For  Ihe  past  37  years, 
Quincy's  best  tennis  players 
have  come  together  each  tall 
to  determine  who  among 
them  will  be  crowned  City 
Champion  in  eleven  events, 
and  which  city  employees 
will  be  crowned  champions 
in  two  events. 

The  tournament, 

sponsored  by  the  City  of 
Quincy's  Recreation 
Department  and  the  Quincy 
Credit  Union,  brings  together 
the  young  and  old,  families, 
past  champions  and  first-time 
entries.  And  after  two  weeks 
of  beautiful  weather  and  over 
150  matches,  the  champions 
have  been  crowned  and  the 
trophies  have  been  awarded. 

The  following  are  the 
results  for  the  37""  Annual 
Tennis  Tournament: 

For  Jirawat  Anektanasap 
and  Phoebe  Chan,  patience 
and  perseverance  paid  off  in 
2007,  as  both  returned  to  the 
winner's  circle  after  a  three- 
year  hiatus.  Anektanasap 
reclaimed  the  "Lionel  Shine 
Buckley  BowT'  to  earn  his 
fourth  Men's  Singles 
Championship  6-2,  6-4  o\  or 
the  challenger  Kevin

advanced  to  the 

championship  by  defeating 
last  year's  chanipicMi.  Ron 
Abell,  6-4, 4-6.  6-3  in  one  of 
the  best  matches  of  the  entire 
tournament. 

Chan  won  her  third 
Women's  Singles  title  by 
dcleating  three-time 

champion  Patrice  Sulli\  an  6- 
4, 6-3.  After  their  match,  the 
bu//  among  the  spectators 
was  about  a  potential  rubber 
match  at  next  yeai'> 
ti>urnament 

In  one  ut  the  most 
competitive  e\ent>  at  ilie 
tournament,  ihe  .Men's 
Doubles  championship,  the 
team  of  Anekanasap  and 
Cristian  Popa  defeated  the 
team  oi  Paul  Carty  and 
Murphy  6-4,  5-7,  6-2  in  a 
well  played  three-set  match 
that  went  late  into  the  night 
to  capture  The  Henry 
McAulfee  Bowl.  This  is  the 
fourth  time  that  Anekanasap 
has  been  a  part  of  a  winning 
doubles  team.  Carty  and 
Murphy  had  previously  been 
crowned  doubles  champions 
in  2004. 

Victor  Luzarraga  won  his 
fourth  straight  Men' s  Thirty- 
Five  and  Over  Championship

Franceschini.  who  has  been 
the  Tournament  Directiu  for 
over  thirty  years,  for  creating 
an  outstanding  draw,  which 
in  turn  created  great  pla_\  in 
all  oi'  the  events: 

"The  play  \A,as  excellent 
and  equally  important,  rhc 
participants  also  had  fun" 

Welch  also  recogm/edthe 
lob  done  b\  tournament  co- 


director  Michelle  Hanly  who 
was  instrumental  in  co- 
directing  the  times  and  days 
of  all  matches: 

"This  is  not  an  easy  task 
with  the  weather  and  work 
schedules  to  coordinate  for 
more  than  three  weeks.  We 
could  not  have  operated 
without  her.  We  are  fortunate 
to  have  such  a  great  staff." 

Welch  continued  in  his 
praise  the  involvement  of  the 
Quincy  Credit  Union  for  its 
financial  support  of  the 
tournament: 

"I  know  that  they 
recognize  that  traditional 
events,  like  our  tournament, 
contribute  to  the  fabric  of  our 
community.  We  would  not 
be  able  to  continue  this  event 
without  such  a  caring  and 
willing  sponsor." 

This  year  marked  the  1 2'' 
year  of  support  from  QCV 
and  in  addition  to  providing 
financial  support;  the  Quincy

Next  up  w  as  the  Freetown 
tournament  against  local

hard-fought  game  ended  in 
an  8-8  tie  as  the  two-hour 
time  limit  was  reached.  The 
game  remained  close

By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  North  Quincy  girls" 
soccerteam  is  slowly  gaining 
momentum,  and  it  could  not 
have  come  at  a  better  time. 

The  Red  Raiders  are 
coming  off  of  a  0-1-2  week 
that  saw  them  tie  Plymouth 
South  and  Plymouth  North. 
They  lost  a  heart  breaker  to 
Marshfield  in  the  middle  of 
the  week,  but  with  four  games 
remaining  that  count,  the 
Raiders  need  seven  points  to 
make  the  post  season. 

"We  had  a  good  week  and 
earned  some  much- needed 
points,"  said  head  coach  Paul 
Bregoli.  "We  tied  Plymouth 
North  and  Plymouth  South, 
but  the  best  thing  to  come  out 
of  the  week  was  the  play  of 
our  young  players.  These 
girls  took  awhile  to  get 
adjusted  to  the  varsity  level, 
but  starting  about  two  weeks 
ago  they  have  played  with  an 
edge  and  a  passion  that  they 
didn't  have  at  the  beginning 
of  the  year." 

Freshmen  Shannon 
Coleman,  Jill  Carchedi  and 
sophomore  Lindsey  Repucci 
all  played  sohd  games  last 
week  to  help  the  Red  Raiders. 

Against  Plymouth  South, 
North  Quincy  got  25  saves 
from  junior  goalkeeper 
Siobhan  Camell  and  great 
defense  from  senior  Simone 
Leary  and  Repucci  to 
preserve  the  shutout  and  earn 
the  0-0  tie. 

"Siobhan  was  pretty 
impressive,"  Bregoli  added. 
"She  made  25  saves,  as 


SOCCER 


Plymouth  North  peppered  the 
net  throughout  the  game.  We 
could  not  get  anything  going 
offensively,  but  Leary  shut 
down  their  best  player  and 
we  earned  the  tie." 

In  the  game  versus 
Marshfield,  senior  captain 
Emily  Milone  scored  on  a 
highlight-reel  goal  (10'"  of 
the  season)  early  in  the  first 
half  to  put  the  Red  Raiders 
up  1-0.  Marshfield  tied  the 
score  late  in  the  half,  and 
scored  the  winner  three 
minutes  into  the  second  half. 
But  the  performance  did  not 
go  unnoticed  by  the  head 
coach. 

"We  played  hard  and  we 
played  well,"  Bregoli  said. 
"Milone' s  goal  was  a  beauty. 
She  took  a  corner  kick  from 
Brittany  Folkins  and  side 
volleyed  the  ball  into  the  back 
of  the  net.  It  was  special.  We 
played  hard  and  Mary  Kate 
Stille,  Shannon  Coleman  and 
Kerry  Coughlin  all  played 
solid  games.  Coleman,  only 
a  freshman,  played  her  best 
game  to  date." 

North  Quincy  played  to  a 
0-0  draw  against  Plymouth 
South  to  start  their  week. 

"We  outplayed  them,  but 
could  not  score,"  Bregoli 
stated.  "Cara  Murtagh  had  a 
golden  opportunity  to  score 
but  hit  the  post.  Our  defense 
once  again  stood  on  its  head, 
and  Camell  played  great  in 
net  to  record  the  shutout."

Q.In  a  few  months  I 
•  will  be  a  bride.smaid 
in  a  wedding  and  will  have 
to  wear  a  .strapless  dress; 
however,  my  arms  have 
NO  muscle  tone.  What 
exercises  can  I  do  to  tone 
my  arms  to  look  my  best  in 
the  dress? 

A, The  appearance  of 
•  strong,  lean  and 
toned  muscles  can  be 
achieved  through  a  compre- 
hensive exerci.se  program 
that  not  only  focuses  on 
appearance,  but  also  stabili- 
ty, muscle  balance  and  func- 
tion. 

The  muscles  most  people 
wish  to  tone  are  the  triceps 
(back  of  the  arm),  biceps 
(front  of  the  arm)  and  del- 
toids (shouldersj.  Each  of 
these  muscle  groups  must 
function  properly  for  you  to 
maximize  function,  strength 
and  stability.  .Although  your 
goal  may  be  to  tone  your 
arms,  an  exercise  program 
that  targets  the  entire  body 
will  help  you  reach  your 
goals. 

.\s  you  probably  know, 
you  cannot  spot  train  —  tar- 
geting your  workout  just  for 
the  arms  —  and  produce 
results.  Fortunately,  we  use 
our  arms  while  working  oth- 
er muscle  groups  such  as  the 
chest  and  back,  so  although 
you  are  not  focusing  just  on 
the  anns  in  those  exercises, 
they  have  to  work  in  order 
for  those  exercises  to  be 
completed. 

Great  exercises  for  the 
arms  include  bicep  curls, 
triceps  extensions  and 
shoulder  raises.  These  exer- 


cises can  be  done  with 
dumbbells,  resistance 

bands,  body  weight  or  with 
exercise  machines.  Be 
patient  when  trying  new 
exercises,  and  complete  sets 
and  repetitions  that  will 
allow  you  to  progress  as  you 
get  stronger. 

Don't  forget  that  exercises 
such  as  pushups,  pull-ups, 
chest  press  and  rows  also 
require  the  arm  muscles  to 
work,  even  though  they  are 
not  isolated.  Exercises  for 
your  lower  body  may  seem 
to  not  have  anything  to  do 
with  your  arms,  but  they  can 
also  help  lower  your  body 
fat  and  increase  your  overall 
lean  muscle  mass. 

Give  yourself  several 
weeks  to  see  results,  and 
maintain  a  consistent  exer- 
cise regime.  Try  not  to  over- 
train while  trying  to  reach 
your  goals,  and  allow  your 
body  recovery  time  in 
between  higher-intensit\ 
workouts. 

Remember  that  nutrition 
and  other  positive  lifestyle 
choices  are  important  to 
have  you  looking  great  in 
your  strapless  gown.

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

1 9 )  You  might  feel  compelled 
to  get  involved  on  the  "right 
side"  of  a  seemingly  unfair 
fight.  But  app)earances  can  be 
deceptive.  Get  the  facts 
before  going  forth  into  the 
frav. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Bullying  others  into 
agreeing  with  your  position 
could  cause  resentment. 
Instead,  persuade  them  to 
join  you  by  making  your  case 
on  a  logical  point-by-point 
basis. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Resist  pushing  for  a 
workplace  decision  you 
might  feel  is  long  overdue. 
Your  impatience  could  back- 
fire. Meanwhile,  focus  on 
that  still -unsettled  personal 
situation. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Your  aspects  favor  doing 
something  different.  You 
might  decide  to  redecorate 
your  home,  or  take  a  trip 
somewhere  you've  never 
been,  or  even  change  your 
hairstyle. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
You  might  want  to  take  a 
break  firom  your  busy  sched- 
ule to  restore  your  energy 
levels.  Use  this  less-hectic 
time  to  also  reassess  your 
plans  and  make  needed 
changes. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  What  you  like  to 
think  of  as  determination 
might  be  seen  by  others  as 
nothing  more  than  stubborn- 
ness. Try-  to  be  more  flexible 
if  you  hope   to   get  things 


resolved. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  Watch  that  you 
don't  unwittingly  reveal 
work-related  information  to 
the  wrong  person.  Best  to  say 
nothing  until  you  get  official 
clearance  to  open  up. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  With  things 
settling  down  at  work  or  at 
home,  you  can  now  take  on  a 
new  challenge  without  fear 
of  distraction.  Be  open  to 
helpful  .suggestions  from  col- 
leagues. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21 )  Your 
creativity  can  help  resolve  an 
emotional  situation  that 
might  otherwise  get  out  of 
hand.  Continue  to  be  your 
usual  caring,  sensitive  self 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  You  could 
impress  a  lot  of  influential 
people  with  the  way  you 
untangle  a  few  knotty  prob- 
lems. Meanwhile,  a  col- 
league is  set  to  share  some 
welcome  news. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  Aspwcts  favor 
recharging  your  social  life 
and  meeting  new  people.  It's 
also  a  good  time  to  renew 
friendships  that  might  be 
stagnating  due  to  neglect  on 
both  sides. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Congratulations. 
Your  talent  for  working  out  a 
highly  technical  problem 
earns  you  well-deserved 
praise.  The  weekend  could 
bring  news  about  a  friend  or 
relative. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
Your  sense  of  justice  makes 
you  a  strong  advocate  for  the 
rights  of  people  and  animals 
alike,

Sometimes  we  take  credit  for 
being  patient  when  we  are  simply 
putting  off  doing  something  un- 
pleasant . . .  Sometimes  we  think 
we  are  being  patient  when,  in 
reality,  we  are  being  indifferent. . 


"Patience  is  a  two-side  coin.  If  patience  is  to  be  a 
virtue  it  must  be  employed  in  the  willingness  to  obtain 
all  the  facts,  to  deduce  from  the  facts  what  should  be 
done,  if  anything,  and  to  act  in  time  and  not  too  early 
or  too  late.  If  patience  is  merely  to  be  used  as  an  excuse 
for  inaction,  and  if  you  don't  do  anything  but  wait  - 
and  you  wait  too  long  and  the  opportunity  is  past  -  or 
if  you  convert  it  into  lethargy  or  inaction,  then  that  is 
'the  other  side  of  the  coin."  . . .  David  Sarnoff 

Patience  is  a  virtue  few  of  us  possess  all  ofthe  time, 
but  all  of  us  need.  It's  too  bad  that  many  times  it  takes 
such  hard  work  to  acquire  it! . . .

Alexandria  M.  Lynch,  13 


Singer,  Cook 

A  funeral  Mass  for  Alex- 
andria Marie  "Allie"  Lynch, 
13.  of  Quincy,  who  made 
friends  all  over  greater  Bos- 
ton during  her  brief  life,  was 
celebrated  Oct.  12  at  Sacred 
Heart  Church.  North  Quincy. 
Allie  died  unexpectedly 
Oct.  8. 

During  her  brief  life,  she 
made  friends  throughout  the 
region,  but  most  particularly 
in  Quincy.  Through  her  years 
at  Squantum  School,  Snug 
Harbor  School  and  finally  the 
Italian  Home  for  Children, 
she  learned  the  names  of  all 
her  drivers  and  aides,  and 
could  explain  the  relative 
merits  of  various  routes  be- 
tween Quincy  and  Jamaica 
Plain  with  incredibly  accu- 
racy. 

Allie  loved  to  sing,  and 
was  quite  proud  to  have  par- 
ticipated in  a  vocal  contest  at 
the  Italian  Home  only  last 
week.  She  adored  her  teach- 
ers and  classmates,  and  was 
an  enthusiastic  participant  in 
events  and  field  trips  at  the 
Italian  Home. 

Allie  also  loved  to  cook. 
The  day  before  her  sudden 
death,  she  commandeered  the 
kitchen,  expelled  her  parents 
and  then,  after  great  clamor, 
proudly  emerged  and  pre- 
sented them  what  she  con- 
sidered to  be  the  perfect 
chocolate  cake. 

The  youngest  of  six  chil- 
dren, Allie  was  a  treasured 
member  of  her  family.  She 
prized  time  with  her  sisters 
Elizabeth,  Kathleen  and 
Susanna,  her  late  sister  Sheila 
and  her  brother  Joseph.  She 
loved  swimming,  doing  arts 
and  crafts,  visiting  restau- 
rants, getting  her  nails  done, 
and  going  on  adventures  with 
her  sisters. 

Shopping  trips  lor  new 
clothes,  craft  supplies,  jew- 
elry, and  birthday  presents 
were  adventures  for  all  par- 
ticipants, as  Allie" s  active 
imagination  and  incredible 
memory  always  led  her  to 
add  "extras"  to  her  already 
substantial  list. 

Alexandria  was  also  tre- 
mendously generous  and 
could  always  remember  a 
cousin  or  classmate  who 
"needed"  one  more  little  gift 
to  make  their  life  complete. 
Allie  enjoyed  her  vaca- 
tions at  York  Beach.  Maine 
and  Lincoln,  N.H.  While  on 
vacation,  she  always  knew 
where  the  bargains  were,  and 
would  even  learn  the  names 
and  work  schedules  of  the 
employees  of  various  stores. 
To  the  amazement  of  family, 
more  than  once  she  was  heard 
to  ask  a  store  clerk  how  their 
day  off  was,  and  what  they 
had  done,  and  when  their  next 
vacation  day  would  be. 

Family  members  were  fre- 
quently surprised  at  the  num- 
ber of  people  Allie  new.  and 
the  number  of  people  who 
remembered  her  and  greeted 
her  with  enthusiasm.  Van 
drivers,  store  clerks,  w  ait  staff 
at  restaurants,  former  teach- 
ers and  classmates:  Allie  re- 
membered them  all.  and  thev

all  remembered  Allie. 

Her  aunt  Sheila,  who  has 
lived  in  Andover  for  more 
than  20  years,  enjoyed  many 
shopping  trips  and  hair- 
dresser appointments  in 
Allie's  company  there.  She 
recalled  that  without  Allie 
she  was  just  a  face  in  the 
crowd,  but  with  Allie,  she 
was  now  "Allie's  aunt,"  sud- 
denly identified  and  recog- 
nized, in  her  own  commu- 
nity. 

Allie  leaves  innumerable 
friends,  all  of  them  touched 
by  her  in  a  special  way.  She 
loved  Fr.  John  O'Brien  of 
Sacred  Heart  Parish  in 
Quincy,  from  whom  she  re- 
ceived her  First  Commun- 
ion. 

She  spent  many  happy 
hours  with  people  of  The 
Paulist  Center  in  Boston,  as 
well  as  with  members  of  the 
Newman  School  community, 
where  she  was  a  very  enthu- 
siastic fan  of  her  brother 
Joseph's  sports  teams.  She 
shared  a  special  bond  with 
Joseph,  who  enjoyed  pa- 
tiently tutoring  her  in  her 
school  work  and  teaching  her 
to  play  sports. 

Allie  also  participated  in 
TOPS  Soccer  through 
Quincy  Youth  Soccer. 

Allie's  pride  and  joy  was 
her  electric  Razor  scooter, 
which  was  bright  pink,  her 
favor  color.  She  was  well- 
known  throughout  her  neigh- 
borhood, and  as  she  rode  she 
benefited  from  the  loving  at- 
tention of  many  kind  neigh- 
bors. 

An  exuberant,  (original, 
funny,  loving,  and  enthusi- 
astic sister,  daughter  and 
friend,  Allie  will  be  sadly 
missed  by  many.  All  fortu- 
nate enough  to  encounter  her 
have  remarked  that  through 
their  relationship  with  .Allie. 
theirown  lives  were  enriched 
beyond  measure. 

She  is  survived  by  her 
parents.  Joseph  "Harry"  and 
Patricia  (Coen)  Lynch  of 
Quincy;  three  sisters,  Eliza- 
beth Lynch  of  Dorchester. 
Kathleen  Lynch  of  Boston

ther, Edward  A.  Coen  of

THE  COMMITMENT  CONTINUES... 

Dear  Neii^hhor, 

As  I  complete  my  first  term  as  your 

Councillor-at-Large,  I  want  to  thank  you 

tor  the  privilege  of  being  able  to  serve  our 

community. 

I  am  proud  of  my  accomplishments  over 
the  past  two  years.  As  the  Education 
Committee  Chairman,  I  have  worked  hard 
lo  move  the  new  Quincy  High  School 
project  forward  and  to  ensure  that  we 
have  a  new  Central  Middle  School  and  a 
renovated  Sterline  Middle  School  for  our 
children. 

My  background  in  finance  has  enabled 
mc  to  make  contributions  in  helping  to 

map  our  city's  future.  1  have  supported  long-term  capital  expenditures  in  our  city's  public  safety  and  public 
works  areas  such  as  the  purchase  of  two  new  pumpers  for  the  Quincy  Fire  Department  and  new  street  sweep- 
ers. Energy  upgrades  with  new  lights  and  boilers  are  now  in  over  thirty  municipal  buildings. 

I  have  spent  the  last  several  weeks  walking  the  streets  of  our  city  listening  as  you  voice  your  opinions  about 
Quincy  I  have  been  overwhelmed  by  your  hospitality,  your  candor,  your  interest  and  your  concern  for  others. 

We  are  very  lucky  that  Quincy  is  such  a  wonderful  place  to  live,  to  work  and  to  raise  our  families.  Our  con- 
tinued quality  of  life  depends  on  the  delicate  balance  of  neighborhood  concerns,  public  safety,  infrastructure, 
the  environment  and  the  quality  of  future  development.  With  my  experience  in  business,  government  and  the 
community  I  feel  I  am  uniquely  qualified  to  continue  to  serve  as  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

With  your  help,  I  would  like  to  continue  my  commitment  to  public  service  in  the  City  of  Quincy.  You  hear  a 
lot  today  about  politicians  serving  only  the  special  interests.  My  promise:  You  will  be  my  only  special  inter- 
est, and  I  mean  it. 

Working  with  people  is  what  I  do  best.  Please  cast  one  of  your  three  votes  on  Tuesday,  November  6th  for 
Mike  McFarland,  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

Thank  you, 

PLEASE  VOTE  ELECTION  DAY,  TUESDAY,  NOVEMBER  6  FOR:

The  Committee  to  Elect  Mike  McFarland  •  Barbara  A,  Nee,  Treasurer  •  617.773.2256  •  mmcfarlandatlarge@yahoo.com 


He's  #44,  North  Quincy  High  School  1978  Co-captain,  Inductee,  NQHS  Hall  of  Fame. 


He  never 

i  ntended 

to  run  for 

Mayor. . 


Bill's  a  regular  Q 
the  courage  to  2 


Bill  Phclaii  never  intended  to  run  tor  Mayor. 

He's  jiisl  a  regular  Quiney  guy.  Son  of  a  elam 
digger  and  a  postal  worker.  One  of  eight  kids.  Growing 
up  in  Wollaston  and  attending  Quiney  publie  sehools. 
Bilfs  parents  taught  him  the  value  of  edueation,  and 
hard  work. 

And  they  taught  him  the  importanee  of  standing  up 
for  what's  right. 

Bill  worked  himself  through  Suffolk  University  and 
Suffolk  Law  Sehool,  where  he  graduated  with  honors. 

He  eould  have  gone  anywhere,  but  Bill  stayed  in 
Quiney  where  he  opened  his  own  law  fimi.  He  served 
on  the  Board  of  Direetors  of  Father  Bill's  Place,  coached 
kid's  basketball,  and  started  a  family  of  his  own. 

And  when  one  of  his  children  wasn't  getting  the 
reading  help  needed.  Bill  worked  to  change  the  system. 
When  help  didn't  come,  he  ran  for  school  committee  to 
help  his  child  —  and  other  kids  —  get  the  education 
they  deserved. 

And  that's  when  Bill  Phelan  got  into  the  fight  of 
his  life. 

With  all  the  City  Hall  insiders 
against  him  —  including  his 
current  opponent  in  the  race 
for  Mayor  —  Bill  Phelan  stood 
up  for  the  health  and  safety 
of  our  kids,  and  our  teachers. 


Who'd  build  a 


high  school  on  a 
toxic  waste  site?

The  insiders  who  ran  City 
Hall  didn't  like  it  when  Bill 
Phelan  started  asking  questions 
about  their  plans  for  a  new 
high  school. 

But  Bill  Phelan  wouldn't 
back  down.  He  learned  that  the  land  had  been  used  by 
the  shipyard  as  a  dump  for  toxic  chemicals  for  decades. 
Then  he  found  out  that  a  contributor  to  the  prior  admin- 
istration had  bought  the  land  for  $1  million,  and  sold  it 
to  the  city  a  few  weeks  later  for  $3.5  million! 

With  all  the  City  Hall  insiders  against  him  —  including 
his  current  opponent  in  the  race  for  Mayor  —  Bill  Phelan 
stood  up  for  the  health  and  safety  of  our  kids,  and  our 
teachers. 

"Why  would  they  expose  our  kids  to  that  kind  of 
risk?"  Phelan  asked.  "How  could  they  ask  teachers  to 
spend  decades  working  under  those  conditions?" 

None  of  the  insiders  would  listen.  But  the  people  of 
Quiney  did.  Hundreds  of  parents  and  concerned  citizens 
stood  shoulder  to  shoulder  with  Bill  in  the  fight  to  stop 
that  toxic  high  school. 

And  they  won! 

And  the  insiders  didn't  Uke  it. 


^mm^m^tt^m^^ 


uincy  guy,  with 
itand  up  for  us. 


How  the  people  took  back  City  Hail 


The  high  school  wasn't  the  only  sweetheart  deal 
Bill  Phelan  uncovered: 

■  Millions  in  taxpayers'  dollars  were  being  poured  down 
the  drain  in  a  wild  scheme  to  build  ships  at  Fore  River; 

■  Contributors  and  cronies  to  the  former  Mayor  were 
receiving  illegal  city  contracts  for  paving  and  other 
services; 

■  Streets  and  sidewalks  were  crumbling,  and  so  were 
Quincy's  finances  (the  city  was  in  such  bad  fiscal 
shape,  the  state  refused  to  certify  the  city's  tax  rate!). 


Bill  asked  others  to  run  for  Mayor,  but  no  one  had 
the  courage. 

So  Bill  Phelan  ran,  even  though  no  one  thought  he 
had  a  chance. 

Bill  worked  hard,  and  door  by  door  he  gained  the 
support  of  thousands  of  ordinary  people  who  were  fed 
up  with  insiders  running  their  city. 

And  in  the  biggest  upset  in  the  city's  history  — 
Bill  Phelan  won! 

And  the  insiders  have  never  forgiven  him. 


Ag 


f  !•!• 


Mayor,  doing  a  g 


•  If  !• 


job. 


When  Bill  Phelan  took  ofiBce  he  inherited  the 
biggest  multi-million  dollar  deficit  in  city  history. 
With  massive  cuts  in  state  aid,  a  huge  property 
tax  increase  left  by  the  last  Mayor,  and  rising 
property  values,  our  new  mayor  knew  he  had  to 
find  new  revenue  to  ease  our  tax  burden. 

He  rolled  up  his  sleeves,  and  went  to  work! 

Bill  took  on  the  insiders  again:  renegotiating  new  payments 
from  Quarry  Hills  Golf  Course,  Quincy  College,  and  Harvard 
Pilgrim  Health  Care.  He  saved  taxpayers  millions  by  eliminating 
city  jobs  through  attrition,  restructuring  Quincy  Hospital's  debt 
payments,  putting  the  Fore  River  Shipyard  back  on  the  tax  rolls, 
and  using  $10  million  fi*om  the  hotel-motel  tax  to  fix  our  parks. 

Thanks  to  Bill,  the  FBI  has  named  Quincy  the  state's  second 
safest  city.  We  have  all-day  kindergarten,  A+  bond  ratings  from 


Wall  Street,  new  housing  for  seniors,  and  the 
ik\    Mayor  is  building  a  beautiful  state-o^the-art 
high  school  for  our  kids. 


And  he  opened  up  City  Hall  with  weekly 
Open  Office  Hours,  and  One  Stop  Shopping  for 
constituent  services.  And  his  "Neighborhoods 
First  Initiative"  means  he  meets  regularly  with  residents  of  every 
city  neighborhood  to  hear  their  suggestions  and  concerns. 

And  Bill's  development  plans  for  Quincy  Center,  die 
shipyard,  and  Crown  Colony  will  mean  construction  jobs  now, 
and  property  tax  relief  and  new  business  and  permanent  jobs  for 
the  ftiture! 

fCeep  a  good  Mayor  on  the  job. 
Re-elect  Mayor  Bill  Phelan. 


Make  the  insiders  unhappy. 

Re-elect  the  Mayor  who 

stands  up  for  us ! 


They  didn't  like  it  when  he  stood  up  for  our 
kids,  and  ruined  their  sweetheart  deal  to  put  a  high 
school  on  a  toxic  waste  dump. 

They  hated  it  when  he  got  elected,  and  didn't 
owe  them  a  thing. 

They  didn't  like  it  when  he  made  them  pay 
back  what  they  owed  for  the  $100  million  golf 
course  deal,  and  the  back  payments  for  Quincy 
College,  and  all  the  other  insider  deals. 

Insiders  don't  like  Bill  Phelan. 

They  definitely  don't  want  him  re-elected. 

They  want  city  hall  back. 

And  so  they  support  his  opponent. 

The  insiders  don't  like  Bill  Phelan. 

But  he  doesn't  care. 

Because  Bill  Phelan  doesn't  work  for  them. 

He  works  for  you!

City  Launches  Drug  Activity 
Tip  Line  On  Website 


The  city  has  launched  a 
new  anonymous  drug  activ- 
ity tip  line. 

Residents  can  log  onto  the 
Police  Department  page  on 
the  city  web-site  and  report 
any  suspicious  activity. 

The  tip  line  was  imple- 
mented by  Mayor  William 
Phelan  and  Police  Chief 
Robert  Crowley  in  conjunc- 
tion with  the  Quincy  Police 
Drug  Control  Unit. 

The  City's  web-site  is 


WW  w.1.1  (j^iiiiu  \  nui  11^. 

"Our  work  in  rooting  out 
criminals  and  drug  dealers 
comes  from  good  police 
work  and  cooperation  with 
the  community,"  said  Phelan. 
"This  new  tool  was  created 
by  a  request  from  our  Drug 
Control  Unit  and  we  are 
happy  to  give  them  another 
aid  in  their  efforts  to  tackle 
this  problem.  We  are  making 
great  strides  in  arresting 
people  that  want  to  impact 


our  neighborhoods  with  il- 
licit drug  activity." 

Crowley  cited  statistics 
that  the  arrests  made  by  the 
Drug  Control  Unit  have 
doubled  in  the  past  year,  due 
in  large  part  to  a  cooperative 
effort  between  the  depart- 
ment and  the  community. 

Residents  that  do  not  have 
access  to  computers  can  call 
the  Quincy  Police  Drug  Tip 
Hotlmc  at  (617)  328-4527. 
Calls  can  be  for  information 


on  criminal  activity  or 
people  seeking  information 
on  treatment  resources. 
Crowley  praised  the  work  of 
Capt.  Anthony  DiBona,  Lt. 
John  McDonough,  and  the 
entire  Drug  Control  Unit. 

"Our  officers  handle  a 
dangerous  job  in  a  profes- 
sional and  brave  manner," 
said  Crowley.  "We  will  con- 
tinue to  channel  our  re- 
sources toward  this  unit  in  an 
effort  to  keep  our  city  as  safe 
and  Inablc  a^  pc^ssihic." 


Stop  &  Shop  Commits 
To  Stay  In  Quincy  Center 


Mayor  William  Phelan 
announced  Tuesday  that  the 
headquarters  of  Stop  and 
Shop  will  remain  in  Quincy 
Center,  preserving  1,000 
jobs  in  the  downtown  area. 

Phelan  said  the  supermar- 
ket giant  is  working  with  the 
urban        design        firm 


Streetworks  Development 
Group  on  a  major  investment 
in  downtown  Quincy. 

"We  are  pleased  that  our 
efforts  are  being  recognized 
by  a  multi-national  corpora- 
tion and  the  largest  investor 
in  our  downtown,"  said 
Phelan. 


"This  is  great  news  but  1 
expect  that  we  have  only 
seen  the  beginning  of  Stop 
and  Shops  plans  for  down- 
town Quincy." 

Phelan  highlighted  on- 
going negotiations  to  bring  a 
Target  store  to  downtown  as 
an  "anchor  retail  store"  to 


kick-start  retail  investment. 

Phelan  said  his  adminis- 
tratic^n  in  the  past  four  years 
has  put  together  an  aggres- 
sive plan  to  revitalize  down- 
town Quincy. 

The  downtown  has  been 
rezoned.  The  city  is  building

New  Community  Center  Opens  At  N.Q.  Library 


Mayor  William  I'hclan 
Tuesday  oiriciall y  opened  the 
new  North  Quincy 
Community  Center  located 
at  the  North  Quincy  Branch 
ol  the  Thomas  Crane  Public 
Library, 

"I  am  very  pleased  to 
announce  the  permanent 
hon)e  olthis  vital  community 
center,"  Fhelan  said,  adding, 
"In  this  new  location,  we  look 
forward  to  expanding  our 
youth  and  senior  programs, 
as  well  as  creating  new 
programs  to  create  a  better 
t|uality  ol  lile  lor  our  fellow 
cili/ens." 

Waril  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  anil  Ann 
McLaughlin,  director  ol 
riiomas  Crane  I'ublic 
Library,  also  spoke  at  the 
ceremony  lor  the  North 
Quincy  Community  Center, 
formerly  known  as  the 
Atlantic  Neighborhood 
Center. 

lH)r  nearly  a  decade,  the 
comnntnity  center  has  been 
without  a  permanent  ht)me 
as  it  moved  from  loaned 
space  in  the  "(Iranite  Lofts" 
building  to  its  most  recent 
location  at  the  Church  of  the 
(lood  Shepherd  on  West 
Sijuantum  Street. 


Nancy  Callanan,  director 
of  Community  Development, 
said  the  library  location  in 
the  rehabilitated  bookmobile 
garage  is  more  centrally 
located  for  the  district.  The 
new  director  is  Steve 
Buckley. 

In  the  future,  Callanan 
said  the  city  hopes  to  expand 
the  center' s  offerings  beyond 
thecurrent  programs,  English 
As  Second  Language  and 
Senior  Bingo. 

Callanan  said  that  new 
programs  will  likely  include 
tutoring  and  mentoring 
programs  for  students  and  a 
karate  class  for  young  people. 
"We're  wiring  the 
building  for  computer 
programs,"  said  Callanan 
who  noted  that  the  branch 
annex,  roughly  the  si/e  of  a 
three-car  garage,  has  been 
completely  renovated  to 
include  large  glass  area  for 
daylight. 

Callanan  estimated  that 
the  renovations  costs  less 
than  $  I  ()(),()()()  and  were 
funded  through  a  federal 
block  grant  through  HUD, 
the  Housing  and  Urban 
Development  Agency.

Councillor  Calls  Them  Neglected 

Raymond!,  O'Donnell 

Clash  Over  Sidewalk 

Projects  In  Quincy  Point 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  Monday  charged 
that  sidewalk  projects  in  his 
ward  have  been  neglected  and 
suggested  that  public  works 
projects  are  being  politicized. 

Raymondi  questioned 
public  works  Director  Steve 
O'Donnell  for  two  hours 
regarding  sidewalk  repair 
lists  and  the  two  officials 
clashed  repeatedly  during  the 
tense  meeting  of  the  City 
Council's  Public  Works 
Committee. 

"We  are  not  getting  our 
fair  share,"  Raymondi  said, 
referring  to  sidewalk 
problems  in  his  ward  which 
runs  from  West  Quincy  to 
portions  of  the  Southern 
Artery,  borders  Fore  River 
and  includes  St.  John  Church. 

As  an  example,  Raymondi 
cited  the  $7  million  public 
works  bond  which  the  City 
Council  approved  in 
February.  The  bond  included 
$2  million  for  sidewalk 
improvements. 

Raymondi  said  that  15 
sidewalks  in  Ward  2  were  on 
the  list  when  the  council 
approved  the  bond.  By  June, 
Raymondi  said  the  15  streets 
were  "summarily  removed" 
from  the  list. 

O'Donnell  said  those  15 
streets  were  "handed  over  to 


in-house  crews." 

'The  work  still  was  not 
done,"  Raymondi  said. 

O'Donnell  replied  that  the 
construction  season  is  still 
underway,  that  reports  are 
still  being  compiled  and  that 
the  construction  and  repair 
issues  change  daily. 

Over  the  past  two  months, 
Raymondi  had  requested  that 
the  Committee  schedule  a 
meeting  with  O'Donnell  to 
discuss  of  sidewalk  repairs. 
He  is  not  a  member  of  the 
Pubhc  Works  Committee.  At 
various  times,  he  sought  lists 
of  sidewalk  projects  and 
repairs. 

This  week,  he  described 
year-old  constituent 

complaints  which  he  said  he 
sent  by  letter  directly  to 
O'Donnell's  office. 

Raymondi,  also,  alluded  to 
pedestrians'  suffering  broken 
glasses  or  broken  teeth  due 
to  sidewalk  slips. 

"We've  done  about  300 
citywide,"  said  O'Donnell, 
adding  that  his  department 
has  "five  years  worth  of  work 
ahead  of  us....  Sidewalks

O'Donnell  also  stated  thai 
some  sidewalk  problems 
involve  tree  roots  and  thai 
such  repairs  must  be 
coordinated  with  the  forestry 
team. 

However,  Raymondi 
claimed  the  reports  provided 
by  O'Donnell  were 
incomplete  and,  in  some 
instances,  inaccurate.  He 
noted  that  sidewalk  repairs 
at  addresses  on  Elm  St.,  Fifth 
Avenue,  Norman  Road  and 
River  Street  were  not  done. 

Raymondi  cited  several 
addresses  that  were 
incorrectly  inputted  on  the 
spreadsheet  and  one  address 
listed  as  repaired  that  did  not 
exist.  The  hsts  did  not  identify 
the  streets  by  ward,  by  an 
assessment  of  the  problem  or 
by  the  date  of  complaint  and 
repair.

Planning  A  Wedding? 


lanning  a  wedding? 

Undecided  about  the  month?  Maybe  this  might 


P 

help. 

June  has  long  been  the  perennial  favorite  month  for 
"Here  Comes  The  Bride."  But  not  this  year  in  Quincy. 

June  has  been  slipping  in  popularity  recently  and 
dropped  to  fourth  place  this  year. 

The  favorite  month  so  far:  July. 

So,  according  to  figures  complied  by  Brenda 
Femande/  and  Carol  Damiano  in  the  Vital  Statistics 
Department  of  City  Clerk  Joseph  Shea's  office. 

July  was  tops  with  91  weddings. 

Augu.st  is  runner-up  with  83  and  September  in  third 
place  with  78. 

June  trailed  with  68-down  22  from  last  year's  90. 

The  other  months,  so  far: 

May  60,  April  53,  March  42,  February  40  and  January 

October  has  64  with  one  more  week  to  go.  Last 
October  there  were  88. 

Last  year,  November  had  64  weddings  and  December 
50,  an  indication  July  will  hold  the  Number  One  spot 
this  year. 

Q 
A  REMINDER  FROM  Shea,  Brenda  and  Carol:  The 
marriage  ceremony  must  be  preformed  within  60  days 
from  the  date  of  the  application  for  the  license. 

There  is  a  three-day  waiting  period  to  obtain  the 
license.  The  fee  is  $35.  Once  upon  a  time  it  was  $2. 

□ 
PREFER  A  QUIET  little  wedding  and  at  the  right 
price'  You  can  get 
married  at  City 
Hall  by  Shea  or 
Assistant  City 
Clerk  Maureen 
Hallsen  during 
regular  office 
hours,     Monday 

through  Friday,  8:30  a.m.  to  4  p.m.  You  do  need  an 
appointment.  Fee,  only  $60. 

Q 
SAME  SEX  MARRIAGES,  incidentally,  .seem  to 
have  leveled  off. 

In  2004  when  they  became  legal,  47  gay  couples 
applied  for  licenses  in  Quincy.  Of  these,  26  were  male 
couples  and  2 1  female. 

Last  year  there  were  only  1 7,  10  female  and  7  male. 
This  year,  so  far  there  are  1 3,  seven  male  and  six  female. 

□ 
WE  WERE  LUCKY  this  Atlantic  hurricane  season. 
But  there's  always  ne.xt  year  to  wonder  about. 

The  National  Hurricane  Center  already  has  names 
for  the  2008  season.  Hope  we  don't  get  to  know  any  of

them  but  here  they  are:

Edouard,  Fay,  Gustav,  Hanna,  Ike, 
Josephine,  Kyle,  Laura,  Marco,  Nana, 
Omar,  Paloma,  Rene,  Sally,  Teddy, 
Vicky  and  Wilford. 

If  you  could  name  a  hurricane,  what 

would  it  be?  I  think  I'd  nominate 

Sharron.  Like  Sharron  Beals,  executive 

director  of  the  Beechwood  Community  Life  Center. 

She's  a  hurricane  herself.  (Hi,  Sharron)

THAT  ITEM  HERE  last  August  about  the  Planters 
Peanut  Store  on  the  east  side  of  Hancock  Street  in 
downtown  Quincy,  stirred  a  lot  of  memories  for  readers. 
And  still  does. 

But  for  former  resident  Betty  Houston,  now  living  in 
Amherst,  it  reminded  her  of  the  other  peanut  store, 
Kemp's,  across  the  street. 
She  writes: 

"I've  been  following  the  comments  and  as  I  recall. 
Kemp's  was  on  the  west  side  of  Hancock  Street,  very 
close  to  the  Lincoln  Store. 

"I  walked  past  it  four  times  a  day  during  the  school 
year  to  and  from  St.  John' s  School  for  eight  years.  I  also 
worked  one  summer  at  Guay '  s  Bakery,  close  to  Kemp' s 
on  the  same  side  of  the  street. 

'it '  s  obvious  that  I  preferred  the  west  side  of  Hancock 
because  ofthe  wonderful  window  displays  of  Lincoln's, 
Sheridan's  and  Remick's." 

Betty  may  be  starting  a  new  round  of  memories  of 
Remick's,  Sheridan's,  Lincoln's,  Kemp's  and  Guay's. 
Would  like  to  have  them  all  back  in  downtown.

A  NICE  CARD  from  Diane  D'Olimpio  Donaher  one 

of  our  first  news  carriers  now  living  in  Bethlehem,  PA: 

"Congratulations  as  you  begin  the  40"'  year  of  the 

wonderful  Quincy  Sun.  Makes  me  feel  a  little  old  as  one 

of  your  first  delivery  girls. 

"My  sister,  Debbie,  and  I  had  the  Quincy  Avenue 
route.  What  great  memories  loading  up  the  bicycle 
baskets. 

"I  am  .still  a  subscriber  even  though  I  am  in  Bethlehem, 
PA.  Keeps  me  up  to  date  on  my  favorite  city." 

Diane,  I  fondly  remember  you  and  Debbie.  And  I'm 
sure  your  former  Sun  customers  do,  too. 

□ 
CONGRATUALTIONS  and  thanks,  Red  Sox. 
Congratulations,  of  course,  for  winning  the  American 
League  championship  and  moving  on  to  the  World 
Series. 

And  thanks  for  defeating  the  Cleveland  Indians  so 
we  don't  have  to  listen  to  that  annoying  drum  thumping. 
Can  you  believe  that  guy  who  beats  it  is  named  John 
Adams?

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


THIS  EARLY  1920's  postcard  is  a  view  of  Hancock 
Street  looking  north  in  Quincy  Square.  On  ttie  riglit 
was  the  Quincy  Savings  Bank  Building,  now  home  to 
several  businesses  including  The  Quincy  Sun.  Next  door 
in  the  ground  floor  of  the  Adams  Building  was  Quincy 's 
original  Woolworth's  Five  and  Ten  Cent  store.  It  was 
there  for  almost  50  years.  On  the  left  were  Heffeman's 


shoe  store  and  the  newly  opened  Alhambra  Th'^ater; 
later  to  become  the  ART  Theater.  Those  sites  are  now 
included  in  the  Stop  &  Shop  property.  The  sparse  auto 
traffic  is  a  far  cry  from  what  one  sees  in  this  view  to-

The  Chinese  Communist  Flag  And  United  Association 


Our  city  has  been  blessed 
over  its  history  to  be  a  city 
of  immigrants.  Many  came 
here  for  the  opportunities  this 
great  city  has  offered.  Some 
have  fled  their  native  lands 
because  of  persecution  and 
repressive  government. 
Quincy  has  been  a  safe  ha- 
ven for  just  such  people. 

Dictatorships  are  nothing 
but  powerful  bullies,  and 
communism  is  no  different, 
especially  in  China  where 
millions  have  been  killed  in 
order  for  the  government  to 
exert  its  power.  The  Chinese 


culture  has  been  attacked  as 
well  as  its  religions  to  get 
more  control  over  the  people. 
The  United  Chinese  Associa- 
tion represents  this  mean 
government  and  is  using  its 
bully  tactics  against  the  good 
people  of  Quincy. 

They  raised  their 
government's  banner  over  a 
building  in  Wollaston,  and 
many  veterans  and  civilians 
took  offense  and  conducted 
several  peaceful  demonstra- 
tions. Hundreds  of  motorists 
passing  the  demonstrations 
honked  their  horns  in  sup- 


port. This  was  a  visual  and 
vocal  notice  to  the  Associa- 
tion that  the  communist  flag 
was  not  welcomed  in 
Quincy! 

Now  someone(s)  re- 
moved the  flagpole  that  kept 
flying  the  communist  flag. 
No  notes  or  messages  against 
the  Association  were  left  in 
or  on  the  building.  Yes,  this 
was  an  act  of  vandalism,  but 
a  crime  of  hate  against  the 
Association?  Ridiculous!  A 
typical  tactic  of  the  commu- 
nists is  to  take  no  blame  for 
anything,  and  this  As.socia- 


tion  is  doing  the  same  thing 
by  blaming  everyone  else  for 
the  situation. 

They  are  the  problem,  if 
they  insist  on  flying  that  red 
flag  of  an  avowed  enemy  of 
the  United  States.  If  they 
continue  down  this  road,  pro- 
tests will  become  larger  and 
louder.  Our  political  leaders, 
who  are  suppose  to  represent 
us,  should  pay  attention  and 
convince  the  Association  that 
they  are  the  problem!

Solution:  Don't  Fly  The  Chinese  Communist  Flag 


The  Chinese  United  As- 
sociation in  Wollaston 
claims  that  it  now  only  flies 
the  red  Chinese  flag  on  com- 
munist holidays,  and  when 
Chinese  dignitaries  are  vis- 
iting Boston. 

Now  everyone  in  Quincy 
should  realize  whom  they 
really  represent,  and  it's  not 
the  peaceful  hardworking 
Chinese  in  our  neighbor- 
hoods. But  instead  the  cruel 
dictatorship  ruling  China  to- 
day! 

As  I  see  it,  the  removal  of 
the  flagpole  atop  their  build- 
ing occurred  only  after  sev- 
eral protests  of  veterans  and 
civilians  failed  to  convince 
this  Association  that  the  flag 
was  not  wanted  in  Quincy. 
These  protests  were  aimed  at 
the  offending  flag,  not  the 
Association.  The  solution  to 
the  problem  is  very  simple. 
Do  not  fly  that  red  flag  any- 
more! Fly  our  city  flag  in- 
stead, and  all  controversy 
will  end. 

The  Association  claims  it 
wants  to  be  a  good  neighbor. 
If  this  is  true,  then  a  good 
neighbor  doesn't  do  things 
that  will  aggravate  the  neigh- 
borhood, knowingly.  They 
know  what  aggravates  the 


people,  but  they  do  it  any 
way-not  a  good  neighbor 
now,  are  they!  A  representa- 
tive of  the  Association 
claims  the  situation  will  get 
uglier  and  uglier  if  not 
nipped  in  the  bud  at  once.  I 
agree ! 


Our  political  leaders 
should  convince  the  associa- 
tion to  cease  their  flying  of 
the  communist  flag,  and  to 
convince  them  that  if  they 
don't,  things  will  get  uglier 
and  if  they  continue  in  their 


bad  behavior  in  the  guest 
country,  the  entire  responsi- 
bility of  the  problem,  then 
lies  in  their  hands!

Opposes  Quincy  Point  P.U.D.  Re-Zoning 


Rise  up,  citizens  or  should 
I  say  wise  up,  citizens. 

I'mreferring  to  the  P.U.D. 
plan.  I  call  it  the  P.U.  plan. 

To  re-zone  the  area  on 
which  the  Inn  by  the  Bay  sits. 


in  my  estimation,  is  a  big 
mistake. 

Eventually  we  will  not  be 
called  the  city  of  Quincy  but 
the  city  of  concrete. 

Please    contact    your 


councillor,  as  I  did  and  have 
him  vote  No.

QUINCY  RESIDENT  Richard  Stack  co-wrote  and  is  also  the  sound  director  for  the  independent 
movie  "The  Aristocrat."  Scenes  were  shot  for  eight  days  at  the  Presidents'  City  Inn  on  Hancock 
Street.  Quincy  Sun  photos/Miriam  Joseph 


minutes  away,"  Stack  said. 

"We  have  hired  three 
rooms  for  the  week,  and  we 
are  rearranging  furniture.  We 
have  taken  over  half  the 
parking  lot,  we're  asking 
people  to  be  quiet. ..the 
cleaning  women  are  working 
around  us-everyone  here  has 
been  incredible." 

Many  of  the  film  crew 
work  together  at  the  Central 
for  Digital  Imaging  Arts  at 
Boston  University.  Stack 
said,  "We  are  always  around 
people  who  are  making  mov- 
ies or  doing  commercials. 
Greg  and  I  originally  in- 
tended to  write  a  short,  10  to 
15  minute  movie  that  we 
could  do  over  a  couple  of 
weekends  working  with 
people  we  know." 

Once  the  film  was  writ- 
ten, colleague  Rachel  Luskin 
was  approached  by  the  co- 
writers  to  help  them  with  a 
budget  and  her  participation 
eventually  grew  into  pro- 
ducer. 


ADAM  SOULE  portrays  one 
of  the  lead  characters  in  "The 
Aristocrats." 

"I've  produced  smaller 
things  before,  but  this  is  my 
first  feature  film-I  think  this 
is  generally  everyone's  first 
feature  film  on  set,  with  the 
exception  of  our  director  of 
photography,  who  is  in  from 
New  York,"  Luskin  said. 

The  film's  themes  and 
extensive  symbolism  are  ex- 
plored on  the  movie's  web 
site,  designed  by  Quincy 
resident  Tim  Washington, 


who  Crouteau  says  has  "cre- 
ated a  fun  site  that  feels  like 
the  movie." 

Co-writer  Stack,  who 
doubles  as  sound  technician 
for  the  film,  works  at  B.U.'s 
CDIA  on  web  videos  and 
podcasts  (digital  media  files 
for  Internet).  Director 
Crouteau,  whose  resume  in- 
cludes directing  corporate 
videos  and  short  films,  is  also 
on  staff  there,  teaching  film 
full-time. 

Both  were  grateful  for  the 
opportunity  to  spend  eight 
days  shooting  in  Quincy. 
Crouteau  said,  "We  wrote 
this  script  around  this  place, 
this  location,  and  if  Ashish 
Patel,  the  owner  of  this  inn, 
were  not  so  accommodating 
to  us,  we  would  not  be  mak- 
ing this  film  in  Quincy, 
which  means  so  much  to  us." 

"The  Aristocrats"  features 
local  actors  Jeff  Gill  of 
Duxbury  and  Adam  Soule  of 
Boston,  and  is  set  for  release 
in  the  fall  of  2008.

How  do  the  experts 
rate  Mayor  Bill  Phelan? 


When  Mayor  Bill  Phelan  inherited  a  record  deficit  and  a  fiscal  mess  so  bad  the 
state  refiised  to  certify  Quincy's  tax  rate,  many  thought  he  couldn't  succeed. 

But  while  other  cities  fired  teachers,  closed  schools  and  firehouses,  and  even 
canceled  school  buses,  our  Mayor  has  found  a  way  to  increase  our  school  budget 
every  year.  He  even  gave  property  owners  the  lowest  tax  increases  of  any  city  in  the 
state  for  the  past  three  years! 

Former  Patriot  Ledger  columnist  Bill  Rynn  called  him  a  "fiscal  wizard." 

Hard-nosed  Wall  Street  bond  salesmen  have  upped  our  bond  rating  to  A+,  and 
praised  Bill's  fiscal  management. 

A  report  last  year  by  the  State  Department  of  Education  said  Quincy's  School 
Board,  school  admmistrators  and  teachers  called  Phelan  "an  education  Mayor." 

And  former  Attorney  General  Francis  X.  Bellotti  —  who  has  hved  in  Quincy 
for  over  50  years  —  has  called  Bill  Phelan  "the  best  Quincy  Mayor  in  my  memory." 

Help  keep  a  good  Mayor  working  for  us. 
Vote  to  re-elect  Mayor  Bill  Phelan.

and  their  children  Rachael,  Kerry,

Teachers  Union  Endorses 
Koch,  Bragg,  Puleo 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

The  Quincy  Hducation 
Ass(Kiation,  with  9(X)  mem- 
bers in  the  pubhc  schools  and 
college,  this  week  endorsed 
Tom  Koch  for  mayor  to  end 
"the  rule  of  threats,  intimida- 
tion, fear,  bullying  and  mis- 
representation." 

They  also  recommended 
that  voters  elect  veteran 
JoAnn  Bragg  and  newcomer 
Nick  Puleo  to  vSchool  Com- 
mittee in  the  Nov.  6  munici-

questionnaires  and  the  inter- 
views. 

The  committee  recom- 
mendations were  accepted 
by  the  QEA's  Executive 
Board. 

"Tom  Koch  calls  for  a 
change  of  tone,"  said  the 
QHA's  announcement. 

"The  need  for  that  is  best 
exemplified  in  the  aggres- 
sively harsh,  mudslinging 
campaign  that  has  come 
from  an  increasingly  desper- 
ate opposition. 

"QliA  does  not  believe 
Tom  Koch  will  usher  in  per- 
Icclion.  Bui  the  rule  of 
threats,  intimidation,  fear, 
bullying  and  misrepresenta- 
iKHi  must  ciicl  amrT'oin  Koch 
li.is  plccbjcd  to  end  it. 

"The  fact  that  12  unions

issue.

that  teachers  had  to  strike  to 
j:et  the  current  mayor  to 
builiie  toward  basic  laiiness, 
which  he  was  finally  forced 
into,  remains  an  issue  for  us. 
"We  strongly  recommend 
Tom  Koch  for  mayor." 

The  four-day  strike  by 
Quincy  teachers  last  June

times bitter  contract  negotia-

tions  and  resulted  in  a  four- 
day  delay  in  school  closing. 
The  teachers  won  a  five- 
year  contract  that  gave  some 
a  17  per  cent  pay  raise  but 
also  increased  their  contribu- 
tion to  health  insurance  from 
10  to  20  per  cent  and  their 
co-pay  from  $5  to  $  1 0. 

A  $150,(K)0  fine  imposed 
by  the  courts  on  the  QEA  is 
still  under  arbitration  and  liti- 
gation, Philips  .said. 

The  QEA's  endorsement 
called  Puleo  "an  energetic 
young  man  (who)  has  taken 
the  lime  to  familiari/c  him- 
self with  the  issues  educators 
care  about." 

■puleo  had  some  interest- 
ing thoughts  about  supply 
and  book  purchasing,  regu- 
l.ir  biiiKling  maintenance  and 
understands  well  the  pitfalls 
ol  merit  pay  and  test-cen- 
leied  curricula  giminickrv. 

"The  Political  Education 
Committee  was  very  im- 
pressed with  Nick  Puleo's 
breadth  and  depth  of  under- 
standing. It  was  obvious  he'd 
done  his  homework." 

The  QEA  said  Bragg, 
who  is  attempting  the  return 
to  the  School  Committee  af- 
ter leaving  for  a  term  to  care 
for  her  family,  "compiled  an 
enviable  record  in  her  years 
on  the  School  Committee." 
""It  is  safe  to  say  that 
QEA  will  not  always  agree 
with  everything  she  advo- 
cates, but  we  will  agree 
much  more  often  than  not. 
And  when  we  don't,  the  dif- 
ferences will  be  respectful, 
direct  and  above  board. 

"JoAnn  was  bothered  by 
the  public  bargaining  of  the 
mayor  and  disturbed  that  the 
current  School  Committee 
allowed  it  to  happen  without 
comment  or  any  attempt  to 
stop  it."

Liang  Pledges  Council  Salary 
To  Owners,  Renters  Info  Site 


Jimmy  Liang,  a  candidate 
for  the  City  Council  from 
Ward  6,  says  he  plans  to  use 
his  salary  as  councillor  to 
provide  bilingual  informa- 
tion to  consumers,  particu- 
larly to  homeowners,  renters 
and  new  home  buyers. 

"A  strong  housing  stock 
and  thriving  busines.ses  will 
entice  people  to  stay  in  North 
Quincy,"  said  Liang. 

"They  will  also  ensure 
that  we  have  a  our  safety 
services,  such  as  the  Fire 
Department  and  Police  De- 
partment, and  support  our 
schools  and  public  works." 

Liang  would  open  an  of- 
fice in  Ward  6  to  work  with 
Neighborhood  Housing  Ser- 
vices and  Quincy  Cominu- 
nit\  ,'\ciion  and  others  to  in- 


crease educational  programs 
for  homebuyers  and  land- 
lords. 

"The  subprime  lending 
practices  in  many  cities 
around  the  country  have  left 
people  with  adjustable  mort- 
gages they  cannot  afford 
when  the  interest  rate  adjusts 
up,"  he  said. 

"These  lending  practices 
affect  homeowners  and 
neighborhoods  when  owners 
foreclose.  In  cases  involving 
one  or  two-family  homes,  a 
foreclosed  loan  may  also 
jeopardize  renters." 

Liang  pledged  to  work 
with  city,  state  and  federal 
programs  to  secure  iriorc 
home  improvement  loans  for 
homeowners  and  landlords. 

"Our  homes  in  Quincy 


neighborhoods  are  one  of  our 
best  assets,"  he  said.  "The 
homes  in  Ward  6  were  built 
to  last. 

"Each  home  in  North 
Quincy  has  a  unique  design 
and  architecture.  In  fact, 
people  who  visit  from  out  of 
town  often  comment  on  the 
variety  of  home  designs. 

"But  we,  as  a  neighbor- 
hood, must  keep  up  our 
homes  and  rental  property 
and  make  sure  buyers  ac- 
quire loans  that  they  can  af- 
ford to  pay  back." 

Liang  welcomes  a  chance 
to  share  ideas  with  you.  You 
can  visit  him  in  his  campaign 
headquarters  at  .^8  Billings 
Rd.  ,  Wednesdays  from  2  to 
4  p.m.  or  call  him  al  617- 
331-2081. 


Fright  Night  To  Be  Sight  Night 
For  Collection  Of  Used  Glasses 


Quincy's  youthful  trick- 
or-treaters  are  being  asked  to 
turn  their  annual  "fright 
night"  in  to  "sight  night" 
when  they  tour  their  neigh- 
borhoods on  the  evening  of 
Wednesday,  Oct.  3 1 . 

The  date  coincides  with 
the  Quincy  Lions  Club  an- 
nual drive  to  collect  old  eye- 
glasses and  sunglasses  to  be 
recycled  and  distributed  to 
people  in  need  around  the 
world. 

This  year  the  Lions  are 
encouraging  local  residents 
to  give  their  unwanted  and 
unneeded  glasses  to  the  pint- 
sized  ghosts  and  goblins  who 
show  up  at  their  doors. 

The  kids  will  then  turn  in 
their  collected  glasses  to 
their  local  schools  where 
they  will  be  picked  up  by  the 


Lions  Club. 

"Sight  Night  gives  chil- 
dren and  adults  a  tangible 
way  to  participate  in  a  glo- 
bal act  of  kindness  on  Hal- 
loween," said  Christine 
Cedrone  Logan,  past  presi- 
dent of  the  Lions  Club  and 
Sight  Night  organizer. 

"Some  people  who  re- 
ceive this  eyewear  may  now 
be  able  to  work  or  see  the 
board  in  school  because  of 
their  improved  eyesight. 

"Look  for  your  used  pre- 
scription eyeglasses  and  non- 
prescription   sunglasses 


around  your  home  or  oftice. 

"Whether  they're  big  or 
small,  chic  or  not,  your 
eyewear  could  help  someone 
in  a  developing  country  see 
the  world  more  clearly." 

If  the  ghouls  and  goblins 
fail  to  appear  at  your  house 
on  Sight  Night,  be  not  dis- 
appointed: The  Lions  Club 
has  collection  boxes  in  stra- 
tegic locations  around  the 
city.

Keenan's  Pension  Cost 
Saving  Plan  Moves  Forward 


Koch  Fund-Raising  Rally  Set  For  Tonight 


A  pension  cost  saving  plan 
introduced  by  Councillor-at- 
Large  John  F.  Keenan  and 
passed  by  the  Council,  the 
State  Legislature,  and  signed 
by  the  Governor,  is  now  un- 
der review  by  the  adminis- 
tration and  the  Quincy  Re- 
tirement System,  Keenan 
said. 

If  timely  implemented  the 
plan  could  save  the  city  ap- 
proximately $80  million  in 
pension  costs  over  the  next 
20  years,  according  to  First 
Southwest,  the  City's  bond 
advisor. 

"The  City  of  Quincy  bud- 
geted approximately  $18 
million  this  year  to  fund  the 
Retirement  System,  and  the 
City  has  an  overall  unfunded 
liability,  a  financial  obliga- 
tion to  the  Retirement  Sys- 
tem, in  excess  of  $150  mil- 
lion." Keenan  said. 

The  City  is  obligated  over 
the  next  20  years  to  continue 
making  payments  to  the  Re- 
tirement System  based  on  a 
funding  schedule.  The  legis- 
lation that  I  introduced,  which 
was  passed  at  every  level  of 
local  and  state  government, 
would  give  the  City  the  abil- 
ity to  make  a  one  time  pay- 
ment to  the  System,  and  fi- 
nance that  amount  over  a 
similar  number  of  years  at  a 
low  interest  rate." 

Keenan  said  his  proposal 
could  result  in  substantial 
savings  for  the  City. 

"It's  something  similar  to 
refinancing  a  home  at  a  fa- 
vorable, locked  in  interest 
rate,"  he  said.  "The  City's 
bond  rating,  the  drop  in  in- 
terest rates,  and  predictions 
of  a  relatively  stable  economy 
open  the  windows  again  for 
potentially  large  savings." 

Keenan,  who  serves  as 
Chairman  of  the  City 
Council's  Finance  Commit- 
tee added: 

"The  plan  requires  a  great 
deal  of  analysis  before  a  de- 
cision on  implementation.  I 
appreciate  the  cooperation  of 
the  Auditor,  the  Retirement 
System  and  the  Administra-

to  ensure  that  when  the  time 
comes  to  make  the  decision

Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  will  host  a  fundraising 
rally  tonight  (Thursday)  at  7 
p.m.  at  the  Quincy  Maniott 
Hotel  in  Crown  Colony  Of- 
fice Park. 

The  event  will  feature 
food,  entertainment  and  a 
nine- foot- tail    television 


screen  so  supporters  can 
watch  the  Red  Sox  in  Game  2 
of  the  World  Series. 

"Just  like  the  Sox,  we're 
heading  down  the  home 
stretch,  and  I  can't  think  of  a 
better  way  to  celebrate  all  the 
hard  wi>rk  so  many  people 
have  contributed  over  the  last 


10  months,"  Koch  said. 

"We've  had  a  great  run 
and  now  we're  going  to  fin- 
ish strong." 

Tickets  to  the  event  are 
$25.  For  more  information,

HOW  DO  YOUR  FEET  FARE  DURING  PREGNANCY? 


Imagine  what  adding  more 
than  25  pounds  to  your  body  (all 
in  the  midsection)  in  a  short 
amount  of  time  would  do  to  your 
feet.  The  weight  gain  and 
changes  in  the  center  of  bal- 
ance in  women  during  preg- 
nancy can  be  hard  on  their  feet 
and  ankles.  One  common  foot 
problem  during  pregnancy  is 
overpronation,  wfiich  is  the  col- 
lapsing of  the  arches.  The  pain 
associated  with  pregnancy-re- 
lated overpronation  may  be  re- 
lieved with  orthotics.  Another 
common  symptom  of  pregnancy 
is  edema,  which  is  caused  by 
the  extra  blood  that  pregnancy 
causes  to  accumulate  in  the 
body.  Keeping  the  feet  up,  wear- 
ing properly  fitting  sheas,  and 
drinking  plenty  of  fluids  can  all 
help  relieve  edema  symptoms. 
Just  as  you  put  your  prena- 
tal care  in  the  hanck  of  a  spe- 
cialist, so  shouM  you  entrust 


your  hard-working  fee  to  a  spe- 
cialist -  a  highly  trained,  spe- 
cially skilled  podiatrist.  It's  time 
to  pay  attention  to  what  your 
feet  are  trying  to  tell  you  when 
each  step  is  more  painful  than 
the  one  before.  Don't  ignore 
foot  problems,  whether  caused 
by  pregnancy,  injuries,  dis- 
eases, or  inherited  conditions. 
Call  us  instead  at  781-986- 
3668.  Our  state  of  the  art  foot 
care  facility  is  located  at 
QUINCY  MEDICAL  CENTER. 
Office  hours  are  also  available 
at  999  North  Main  St.,  in  the 
Randolph  Medical  Office  Build- 
ing, and  Milton  Medical  Build- 
ing in  Suite  221 . 1  am  affiliated 
with  the  Brockton  and  Good 
Samaritan  IHospitais. 

P.S:  Pregnancy-related 
edema  should  occur  in  both 
feet.  When  it  occurs  only  in  one 
foot,  it  may  indicate  a  more 
serious  problem.

Phelan  Endorsed  By 
County  Labor  Council 


POLITICAL  ADVERTKSEMENT 


POLITICAL  ADVERTISEMENT 


The  Norfolk  County  Cen- 
tral Labor  Council- Af^CIO 
has  endorsed  Mayor  WiUiam 
Phelan  for  a  fourth  two-year 
term  in  the  Nov.  6  election. 

Labor  Council  President 
Robert  Rizzi  cited  Phelan's 
record  of  working  with  orga- 
nized labor  and  his  willing- 
ness to  listen  to  the  concerns 
of  working  men  and  women 
as  one  of  the  main  reasons 
for  the  endorsement. 

"Bill  Phelan  is  a  great 
mayor  doing  a  great  job," 
said  Rizzi. 

"The  work  he  is  doing  to 
create  good  paying  jobs  by 
revitalizing  downtown 
Quincy  and  getting  ramps 
into  Crown  Colony  will  help 
our  local  economy  signifi- 


cantly. 

"The  new  Quincy  High 
School  is  also  a  project  that 
will  help  this  community. 

"Our  members  will  have 
work  for  years  to  come  be- 
cau.se  of  his  vision  for  our 
city's  future." 

Phelan  said  he  is  proud  to 
accept  the  endorsement. 

"It's  an  honor  to  be  rec- 
ognized for  the  work  that  we 
have  been  doing  and  for  the 
plans  that  we  have  created 
for  a  very  bright  future  for 
our  city,"  he  said. 

"I  am  proud  of  the  good 
paying  jobs  that  our  local 
economy  will  see  because  of 
our  efforts  in  the  downtown, 
at  Crown  Colony  and  with 
the  construction  of  a  new 


high  school. 

"Quincy 's  future  is  bright 
and  I  hope  to  continue  to 
work  on  behalf  of  regular 
people  to  represent  their  in- 
terests in  government." 

Rizzi  also  complimented 
Phelan's  work  to  make

Koch  Calls  On  Phelan 
To  Release  Fire  Reports 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  today  critici/,cd  Mayor 
William  Pholan  for  not  re- 
leasing Fire  Department  re- 
ports that  allegedly  show 
numerous  Quincy  schools 
coniinually  failing  annual 
lire  inspections. 

"It  the  mayor  didn't  know 
about  these  failures,  then 
thals  a  big  problem."  said 
Koch.  "II  he  knew  and  did 
nothing  about  it.  that's  an 
even  bigger  problem, 

"I  call  on  him  today  to 


order  the  Fire  Department  to 
relea.se  the  reports  so  the  citi- 
zens of  Quincy  can  find  out 
what's  going  on  here." 

Koch  first  raised  the  issue 
at  his  debate  with  Phelan  last 
week  at  North  Quincy  High 
vSchool.  Koch  said  he  had 
learned  that  numerous  city 
schools  had  failed  the  tire 
inspections,  many  of  them 
repeatedly. 

Immediately  following 
the  debate,  the  Koch  cam- 
paign filed  a  request  under 


the  Massachusetts  Public 
Records  Law  for  the  inspec- 
tion reports.  The  campaign 
has  yet  to  receive  a  response 
to  its  request. 

"If  the  mayor  believes 
that  no  problem  exists,  then 
why  IS  he  refusing  the  release 
the  reports,"  Koch  asked. 

"This  is  a  vital  public  in- 
formation concern,  and  he 
should  be  doing  his  utmost 
to  address  it. 

"Instead  he's  doing  his 
utiiu>st  to  ignore  it."

After  years  of  working  in 
the  Jewelry  Industry 
Angelo  "  Al"  Coletti  and 
his  wife  Dorothy  Papile 
Coletti  decided  in  1969  to 
open  their  own  Jewelry 
Store.  Al  and  two  busi- 
ness partners  wanted  to 
offer  their  customers  Fine 
Quality  Jewelry  at  Dis- 
counted Prices.  The  three 
partners  used  a  combina- 
tion of  their  surnames  and 
decided  to  name  their 
business  LeColsen  Jewel- 
ers. Originally  located  in 
the  "The  Jewelers  Build- 
ing" in  downtown  Boston, 
Al  and  his  family  contin- 
ued serving  their  clients 
jewelry  needs  while  the 
other  partners  moved  on 
with  other  business  ven- 
tures. In  1988,  the  Coletti 
family  decided  to  relocate

spent  the  night  dancing  at  the 
disco-tech,  playing  dominos

Next  morning  the  young 
men  disembarked  into  beau- 
tiful Greek  weather  in  Patras. 
They  rushed  to  Olympia  be- 
fore it  closed  and  took  a  few 
photos  of  the  ancient  stadium 
that  held  the  onginal  Olym- 
pic Games. 

Next  day  they  viewed  one 
of  the  largest  preserved 
amphitheatres  at  Epidaurus. 
Naturally  the  lads  had  to 
check  the  theater's  acoustics 
so  they  sang  the  Star 
Spangled  Banner  among 
other  favorites.  They  next 
bused  to  Athens,  stopping  at 
the  palace  of  Agamemnon  in 
Mycenae  on  the  way.

lieved to  be  the  center  of  the 
Universe.  Here  the  boys  got 
the  opportunity  to  race  each 
other  in  the  ancient  stadium 
at  Delphi. 

Bennett  enjoyed  every 
minute  of  the  trip,  especially 
the  Greek  food,  souvlaki.

of  lamb.

ADVERTISE.MENT 


Why  50%  Of  Homes 

Listed  For  Sale  Don't  Sell 

The  First  Time  And  What 

to  Do  About  It 

Quincy  -  If  your  home  has  just  come  off  the  market  and 
hasn't  sold,  don't  get  discouraged.  The  reason  your  home 
did  not  sell  may  have  nothing  to  do  with  your  home  or  the 
market,  hi  reality,  your  home  may  have  been  one  of  the 
more  desirable  properties  for  sale. 

So  Why  Didn't  Your  Home  SeU? 

Last  year  almost  half  of  the  homes  listed  for  sale  never 
sold  at  all,  and  many  sellers  found  that  there  was  a  tremen- 
dous amount  a  homeowner  needed  to  be  educated  on  to  sell 
their  home  for  top  dollar  in  the  shortest  time  period. 

Don't  nsk  making  the  wrong  choices  and  losing  both  time 
and  money  on  your  investment.  Before  you  hire  a  realtor, 
know  the  nght  questions  to  ask  to  save  you  time  and  money. 

hidustry  experts  have  prepared  a  free  special  report  called 
"How  to  SeU  a  House  that  Didm  't  SeU"  which  educates  you 
on  the  issues  involved.

Logue  Presents  800-Name  Petition 
Calling  For  City  to  'Stop  The  Concourse' 


William  Kennedy  Director 
Of  Project  Bread 


Councillor-at-large  candi- 
date Jennifer  McCauley 
Logue  Wednesday  presented 
Mayor  William  Phelan  and 
the  City  Council  with  a  peti- 
tion calling  on  the  city  to 
abandon  the  Quincy  Center 
Concourse  project. 

The  19-page  petition  was 
signed  by  nearly  S(M)  Quincy 
residents,  workers,  business 
owners  and  patrons,  who 
oppose  the  city's  plan  to  bull- 
doze two  dozen  downtown 
businesses  and  build  a  tour- 
lane  roadway  straight 
through  the  heart  of  Quincy 
Center. 

"The  breadth  and  diver- 
sity of  the  people  who  signed 
the  'Stop  the  Concourse!' 
petition  demonstrates  just 
how  widespread  opposition 
to  this  project  really  is," 
Logue  said.  "People  from 
throughout  the  Greater  Bos- 
ton area  come  to  Quincy  ev- 
ery day  to  work  in  our  busi- 
nesses, eat  in  our  restaurants 
and  patronize  our  busi- 
nesses-and  they  don't  want 
this  road  to  destroy  Quincy 
Center  any  more  than 
Quincy  residents  do." 

Logue  expressed  concern 
at  the,  for  what  she  called  is, 
iniluence  being  exerted  by 
Stop  &  Shop  in  the  future 
development  of  downtown 


Quincy.  At  a  candidates' 
night  last  week,  she  said,  one 
of  her  incumbent  opponents 
justified  his  support  for  the 
Concourse  by  saying.  "Stop 
&  Shop  was  going  to  leave 
if  we  didn't  do  something." 
This  week.  City  Hall  an- 
nounced that  Stop  &  Shop 
would  be  staying  in  Quincy 
and  that  the  city  was  ready 
to  begin  negotiating  with  a 
developer  "aligned"  with  the 
grocery  store  behemoth. 

Logue  also  noted  that  at 
the  Ward  2  candidates'  night, 
another  incumbent  opponent 
called  the  series  of  public 
charettes-at  which  residents 
gave  their  suggestions  for 
downtown  Quincy-"just  a 
PR  stunt." 

"As  a  resident  and  tax- 
payer, it  disturbs  me  that  our 
elected  officials  are  so  con- 
cerned about  what  Stop  & 
Shop  thinks  Quincy  Center 
should  look  like,  while  being 
so  utterly  dismissive  of  the 
views  of  those  of  us  who  ac- 
tually live  here,"  Logue  said. 
"The  last  time  I  checked,  the 
mayor  and  city  council  were 
elected  to  protect  the  inter- 
ests of  the  residents  of 
Quincy,  not  some  multina- 
tional conglomerate  based  m 
the  Netherlands." 

A  first-time  candidate  for 


elected  office;  Logue  has 
been  an  outspoken  critic  of 
the  Concourse/urban  re- 
newal plan.  She  pointed  to 
other  cities  such  as  Worces- 
ter, where  grandiose  down- 
town revitalization  plans 
have  stalled  as  developers, 
citing  a  "downturn  in  the 
market,"  have  failed  to  step 
up  and  actually  build  the 
promised  projects.  She  also 
compared  the  Concourse 
project  to  another  highly 
touted  city  initiative  that 
failed  to  materialize:  the  re- 
opening of  the  Fore  River 
Shipyard. 

"The  shipyard  fiasco  is  a 
classic  example  of  elected 
officials  letting  their  desire  to 
score  points  with  constitu- 
ents and  special  interest 
groups  override  their  com- 
mon sense,"  Logue  said. 
"Every  shipbuilding  expert 
in  the  world  said  that  plan 
had  no  chance  of  success,  but 
the  mayor  and  city  council 
went  ahead  and  risked  mil- 


lions of  taxpayers  dollars,  all 
the  while  prt)mising  that 
thousands  of  jobs  W(»uld  be 
created  and  the  city  would 
receive  millions  in  tax  rev- 
enues." 

In  the  end,  Logue  said,  the 
plan  never  got  off  the  ground 
and  Quincy  taxpayers  were 
left  to  pay  off  millions  of 
dollars  in  defaulted  loans 
made  to  (ireek  shipbuilder 
Sotirios  limmanouil,  who 
left  the  country. 

"The  Concourse  plan  is 
every  bit  as  financially  risky 
as  the  shipyard  deal  was." 
said  Logue,  noting  that  the 
city  is  borrowing  $.^0  million 
for  the  project  at  the  same 
time  it  will  be  losing  tax  rev- 
enue by  demolishing  $16 
million  in  downtown  busi- 
nesses. "The  citizens  of 
Quincy  have  a  right  to  expect 
that  their  elected  officials 
will  exercise  better  judge- 
ment when  it  comes  to 
spending  their  hard-earned 
money. "

Two  Major  Flu  Clinics  In  November 


The  flu  season  is  still  two 
months  aw  ay  but  already  the 
Quincy  Health  Department 
has  plans  to  hold  two  major 
public  flu  clinics  in  the 
month  of  November. 

The  first  w  ill  be  held  Sun- 
day. Nov.  18,  from  11  a.m. 
to  2  p.m.  at  the  Safety  Fair 
in  the  Koch  Family  Park  and 
Recreation  Complex,  One 
Merrymount  Parkway. 

The  second  will  take 
place  Wednesday,  Nov.  28, 
from  9:30  to  1 1  a.m.  at  the 
Elks  Lodge.  254  Quarry  St. 

If  a  third  clinic  is  needed 
it  w  ill  be  held  at  a  later  date 


Political  Advertisement 


in  the  Health  Department 
offices  at  1585  Hancock  St., 
said  Public  Health  Nurse 
Karen  McKim. 

"The  flu  sea.son  usually 
starts  at  the  end  of  Decem- 
ber and  runs  through 
March,"  she  said.  "The  state 
has  asked  us  to  hold  major 
clinics  in  mid-November.  It 
takes  about  two  weeks  for 
the  vaccine  to  work." 

There  is  no  charge  to  re- 
ceive the  shot  of  vaccine  but 
senior  citizens  are  urged  to 
bring  their  Medicare  cards  to 
ensure  reimbursement,  she 
said. 

Unlike  a  few  years  ago 


when  cities  and  towns  were 
scrambling  for  a  short  sup- 
ply of  vaccine,  the  amount 
on  hand  for  the  coming  sea- 
son is  adequate,  said 
McKim. 

She  described  the  ex- 
pected flu  of  2007-08  as 
"seasonal  influenza,"  so 
mundane,  in  fact,  that  it  has 
not  been  given  a  name,  un- 
like the  deadly  Hong  Kong 
flu  of  1968. 

It  has  no  known  connec- 
tion with  the  dreaded  H5N1 
strain  that  started  among 
Asian  poultry  in  2003  and 
spread  through  most  of  the 
Old  World.

12  Unions  Rally  For  Contracts 


(Cont'd  Fmm  Pa^e  I) 

said  Ernie  Arienti,  president 
of  the  firefighters  Local  792, 
charging  that  city  officials 
have  rarely  met  with  union 
leaders  to  negotiate  new 
contracts. 

"Everyone's  been  trying 
to  meet  with  the  City  of 
Quincy  for  negotiations,  " 
said  Arienti  who  added. 
"Some  haven't  even  met  yet." 

City  Hall  custodians, 
secretaries,  cafetciia 
workers,  traffic  supervisors, 
and  bus  drivers  are  among 
the  union  members  seeking 
contracts.  The  school 
department's  security  guards, 
food  service  workers, 
maintenance,  secretaries  and 
paraprofessionals  are  also 
without  contracts. 

"We  could  be  real  close  if 
we  could  just  sit  down,"  said 
Arienti  who  represents  205 
firefighters. 

There  are  12  city  unions 
which  do  not  have  contracts 
and  union  officials  said 
they've  been  unable  to 
arrange  negotiation  sessions 
with  city  officials. 


At  least  one  union 
president  said  that  city 
officials  have  not  met  with 
thcni  (.nee  in  the  16  months 
since  their  contract  expired. 

Paul  Phillips  who  heads 
the  city's  teachers' union  said 
that  his  union  represents  the 
Quincy  College  faculty  and 
professional  staff  and  the 
city's  assistant  principals,  all 
of  whom  are  without 
contracts. 

Phillips'  teachers'  union 
voted  to  strike  last  June  and 
was  four  days  on  the  picket 
line  before  agreeing  to  a 
contract. 

"They  were  there  for  us 
and  we  want  to  be  there  for 
them,"  said  Phillips  of  his 
members'  presence  at 
Tuesday's  rally. 

Phillips  said  that  the  city 
has  executed  current 
contracts  with  librarians, 
police  supervisors, 

patrolmen,  City  Hall 
Supervisors  and  the  public 
works  union  (Local  1 139). 

However,  Phillips  said 
that  city  officials  expect  to 
renegotiate  the  librarians' 


contract. 

Arienti  said  that  city 
officials  don't  have  time  to 
negotiate  new  contracts 
(but)"the  city  is  looking  to 
move  into  a  new  health 
program  in  30  days." 

City  administrators  tried 
to  meet  the  state's  October 
3 1  deadline  to  join  the 
employee's  health  insurance 
programs  to  the  state's 
program  known  as  the 
(ieneral  Insurance 

Commission  (G.I.C.) 

However,  union  leaders 
said  they  had  no  inlormation 
on  the  G.LC.  until  after 
October  1 . 

"We're  all  looking  to 
work  with  the  city  on  the 
health  care  issues,"  said 
Arienti,  adding,  "The  City's 
not  willing  to  work  with  us. 

"We  feel  it's  time  we 
stood  up  and  had  an 
informational  rally,"  said 
Arienti. 

City  Councillor  John 
Keenan  and  Ward  2 
Councillor  Daniel  Raymondi 
attended  the  rally,  said  they 
supported  the  union 
members. 


FIREFKiHTERS'  UNION  PRESIDENT  Ernie  Arienti  addressed  some  400  demonstrators  on 
City  Hall  Plaza  Tuesday  at  a  rally  supporting  the  employees  of  12  unions  operating  without 
contracts  for  over  a  year.

Removing 
Wallpaper 

Q,  The  dining  room  and 
•  kitchen  of  the  house 
we  recently  purchased 
have  dingy,  faded  wallpa- 
per in  place.  What's  the 
best  way  to  remove  this  so 
that  we  can  paint  the 
walls?  —  Kara  G.,  Port- 
land, Maine 

A,  Wallpaper  removal. 
•  even  at  the  best  of 
times,  is  a  time-consuming, 
exhausting,  dusty,  dirty  job. 
It  can  also  be  somewhat 
exhilarating  as  you  np  paper 
from  the  walls,  but  this 
comes  in  small  doses.  I'm 
just  preparing  you  for  the 
job  —  because  removing  the 
old  wallpaper  and  repainting 
the  walls  is  ultimately  worth 
the  etTort. 

You'll  need  a  putty  knife, 
wallpaper  scraper,  wallpa- 
per scorer,  a  spray  bottle 
filled  with  mild  soapy  water, 
dropcloths,  sponges.  a 
scounng  pad  and  coarse 
sandpaper.  A  dust  mask,  hat 
and  gloves  should  be  worn. 
Depending  on  the  difficulty 
involved  in  removing  the 
w  allpaper  and  glue  beneath, 
you  may  need  to  rent  a  wall- 
paper steamer.  Wallpaper- 
removing  solution  is  also 
available,  but  this  is  a  some- 
what caustic  product  that 
generates  lots  of  fumes, 
requiring  a  respirator  mask, 
eye  and  skin  protection,  so 
consider  it  a  worst-case-sce-

After  clearing  out  furniture 
and  putting  down  drop- 
cloths,  test  the  wallpaper  by 
selecting  a  loose  comer  and 
gently  pulling  away  from  the 
wall.  Encourage  the  paper 
along  by  mrming  the  putty 
knife  or  scraper  between  the 
paper  and  wall. 

Older  paper  tends  to  peel 
away  and  leave  the  backing 
and  glue  behind.  And  such 
glue  is  often  practically  pel- 
nfied.  To  make  removal  eas- 
ier,   spray    soap-and-water 
solution  on  the  surface  of  the 
wallpaper  and  let  it  soak  for 
a  few  minutes  before  peel- 
ing. If  the  wet  spray  doesn't 
work,  use  the  rental  steamer 
(careful,  as  it's  ven,'  hot)  to 
soften  the  backing  and  glue. 
Scrape  away  softened  mate- 
rial  with   the   putty   knife; 
attack     stubborn     backing 
blobs  with  coarse  sandpaper. 
As     I     said,     wallpaper 
removal  is  a  tough  job.  Do 
the  work  in  batches,  allot- 
ting a  certain  amount  of  time 
to  the  job  each  day.  If  you're 
tired  or  hurried,  the  walls 
may  not  be  cleaned  proj^erly, 
and  that  will  show  up  under 
the  paint.

Have  you  e\er  wanted  to 
train  with  the  intensity  of 
the  iniliiarN  but  without  the 
nsk  or  commitment''  Man\ 
exercisers  are  becoming 
invol\ed  in  this  type  of 
intense  training  through 
tiool-camp-inspired  training 
».lasses  The  basic  principles 
found  m  traditional  military 
boot  camp  have  been  modi- 
fied for  us  civilians. 

Boot-camp-traming  class- 
es often  incorporate  m.any 
of  the  same  exercises  that 
are  required  dunng  actual 
boot  camp.  Push-ups.  pull- 
ups,  abdominal  exercises, 
runiung  and  obstacle  cours- 
es are  just  a  few  of  the  exer- 
cises used.  Classes  are 
structured  to  include  mus- 
cular strength,  cardiovascu- 
lar strength  and  endurance, 
balance,  coordination, 

body- weight    training    and 
flcxibilir>'. 

Many  people  not  only  find 
these  workouts  fun,  strenu- 
ous and  challenging,  but 
also  effective.  The  group 
aspect  of  boot-camp  classes 
can  also  be  intriguing.  As 
part  of  a  balanced  fitness 
and  nutrition  program, 
boot-camp  workouts  can 
surely  help  you  reach  your 
fitness  goals. 

One  of  the  major  factors  in 
boot-camp  classes  is  the 
mstructor.  You'll  find  highly 
motivated  and  demanding 
individuals  who  will  chal- 
lenge you  to  push  yourself 
to  complete  each  workout. 


Please  remember  to  check 
the  credentials  of  >our 
instructor  to  ensure  that  he 
or  she  is  qualified  to  con- 
duct a  group  and  has  the 
knowledge  to  sat'ely  design 
exercise  programs,  is  CPR 
and  tlrst-aid  certified,  and  is 
educated  and  trained  m 
teaching.  This  is  extremely 
important  if  you  are  to  com- 
plete an  effective  workout 
with  minimum  nsk  of 
injurv. 

■^'ou  can  find  group  boot- 
camp  classes  offered  at 
many  fitness  facilities, 
through  privately  owned 
group-training  studios,  or 
on  home  video  and  DVD. 
The  settings  for  boot-camp 
classes  range  from  group- 
excrcjse  studios  to  the 
beach,  open  fields  and  con- 
verted playgrounds. 

If  \ou  feel  like  you  have 
what  It  takes  join  the  ranks 
of  a  boot-camp-tx-pe  train- 
mg  class,  check  for  a  class 
in  your  area.

cian before  beginning  an

WHICH  TOOTHBRISH  IS  BEST? 

To  mamlain  healthy  gums      brushes  has  been  brought  to  you 


and  teeth,  we  should  brush  o\n 
teeth  for  2  3  mmutes  at  least 
twice  a  day  With  proper  tech- 
nique (brush  all  iiH>th  surfaces 
at  the  proper  angles),  a  conven- 
tional manual  tiKUhbrush  pro- 
vides good  results.  However, 
because  not  everv  one  of  us  is 
proficient  at  manual  brushing 
(especially  children),  an  electric 
toothbrush  is  likely  to  ser>  e  us 
better.  The  latest  generation  of 
rotary-style  electric  tooth- 
brushes tends  to  do  a  better  job 
than  the  older  models  that  fea- 
ture simple  back-and-fcMth  mo- 
tions. Sub-categories  include 
"sonic"  toothbrushes,  which  vi- 
brate at  ultra-high  speeds,  and 
"oscillating/puJsanjig"  rotary 
toothbrushes,  which  move  at 
higher  rates.  These  higher- 
speed  brushes  may  enhance  the 
cleaning  effect,  but  propCT  tech- 
nique is  critical  to  whatever 
bnishisused.

dental  avN  areness  and  the  impor- 
tance of  regular  dental  care  We 
believe  that  with  preventive  den- 
tal care,  daily  brushing  and  floss- 
ing, and  a  well-balanced  diet, 
people  can  maintain  their  teeth 
and  gums  m  good  health  well 
into  their  later  years  You  can

Fiber  Facts 

Dietary  lihcr,  found  in 
plant  foods,  is  genorall> 
dclined  as  any  part  of  a  plant 
not  digested  by  human 
cn/\iiics  secreted  into  the 
small  intestine  l-iber  varies 
wideh  in  its  chemical 
makeup,  but  it  can  be  broadly 
classified  into  two  types: 
soluble  liber,  which  dissolves 
in  water,  and  insoluble  fiber, 
which  docs  not  dissolve  in 
water. 

".Most  fruits,  vceetablcs 
and  grains  hav  e  both  soluble 
and  insoluble  fiber."  savs 
l.vnne  .\usman.  DSc.  R.D.. 
nutrition  professor  at  the 
Kriedman  School  of  Nutrition 
Science  and  Policy  at  Tufts 
Iniversity.  "Both  types  o\ 
fiber  benefit  the  bod\.  but 
soluble  fiber  is  more  closeh 
associated  with  lowering 
cholesterol." 

Good  sources  of  fiber 
include:  oats,  nuts  and  seeds, 
beans  and  peas  and  fruits, 
especially  those  with  a  gel- 
hke  pulp  (berries,  peaches, 
plums,  etc.). 

"Much  of  the  cholesterol 
in  our  bodies  is  made  by  the 
body  itself,  but  we  add  to  it 
through  foods  v\'e  eat,"  says 
Ausman.  "Since  cholesterol 
usually  increases  with  age, 
eating  fiber-rich  foods  can 
help  lower  or  maintain 
cholesterol  by  binding  to 
cholesterol  in  the  intestines 
and  flushing  it  from  the  body. 
In  addition  to  eating  a  diet 
low  in  saturated  fat  and 
cholesterol,  fiber  is  important 
for  promoting  healthy 
cholesterol  levels." 

Ausman  notes  that  most 
people  are  only  eating  about 
half  the  fiber  they  need  each 
day.  "Aim  to  consume  about 
1 4  grams  of  fiber  for  every 
1,000  calories  consumed," 
she  suggests.  You  can  also 
follow  the  guidelines  from 
the  Institute  of  Medicine: 

Women:  Under  50:  25 
grams  per  day.  Over  50:  21 
grams  per  day. 

Men:  Under  50:  38  grams 
per  day.  Over  50:  30  grams 
per  day. 

Bearis  typically  have  the 


most  fiber,  as  evidenced  by 
the  impressive  19  grams  of 
fiber  in  a  cup  of  navy  beans. 
One  cup  of  raspberries  has 
about  eight  grams  of  fiber; 
instant  oatmeal  about  four; 
and  one  ounce  of  almonds 
has  around  three. 

Still  curious  about  how 
much  fiber  your  favorite 
foods  have' 

"Check  labels  to  learn 
how  many  grams  of  fiber  you 
arc  consuming."  says 
Ausman.  "\  ou  can  also  use 
online  programs  to  find  fiber 
content  oi  foods  without 
labels." 

Fill  I  p  On  Fiber 

Increase  >  our  fiber  intake 
slowly.  "Too  much  fiber 
quickly  may  cause  cramping, 
gas  or  bloating,"  cautions 
.Ausman.  "Drink  plenty  of 
water  and  other  beverages. 
Fiber  absorbs  water,  and 
without  enough  fluids,  may 
cause  constipation." 

Ausman  also  stresses  that 
it  is  essential  to  discuss 
cholesterol  and  related 
chetary  changes  with  a  doctor, 
as  cholesterol  is  not  only 
influenced  by  diet,  but  also 
by  genetics. 

Help  keep  your 
cholesterol  in  check  by  trying 
some  of  these  easy  and  tasty 
fiber-filled  foods: 

•  Eat  oatmeal  or  oat  cereal 
for  breakfast.  Top  with 
berries  or  eat  a  side  of  fruit. 

•  Make  a  strawberry- 
banana  smoothie  with  whole 
fruit  and  low-fat  milk  or  100 
percent  fruit  juice. 

•  Spread  peanut  butter  on 
apple  sHces. 

•  Toss  walnuts,  peanuts  or 
sunflower  seeds  with  raisins, 
dried  apricots  or  plums  for 
energy  on  the  go. 

•  Snack  on  sliced  fruit  or 
veggies  with  a  low-fat  dip, 
such  as  yogurt  or  Italian 
dressing. 

•Complement  sandwiches 
with  broth-based  vegetable 
soups  containing  beans  or 
jjeas. 

•  Top  salads  with  kidney 
beans,  chickpeas,  slivered 
almonds  or  sesame  seeds.

(NAPS)  -  There's  no 
fooling  the  jeans-many 
women  ditch  the  scale  and 
use  a  favorite  pair  of  jeans  as 
the  barometer  for  weight- 
management  success.  For 
those  women  whose  jeans  are 
a  bit  tighter  around  the  waist, 
help  is  on  the  way! 

Never  fear  denim- 
dreaders,  fashion  expert 
Robert  Verdi,  host  of 
"Fashion  Police,"  and 
Kellogg's  Special  K  have 
teamed  up  to  help  you  reach 
your  ideal  figure-then  find 
the  best  jeans  for  your  new 
shape.  By  participating  in  the 
Special  K  Challenge  women 
can  drop  a  jeans  size  in  just 
two  weeks. 

"A  new  pair  of  fabulous 
jeans  is  a  great  way  to  show 
the  world  your  new,  slimmer 
figure,"  says  Verdi,  "There 
are  jeans  for  every  body, 
shape  and  size."  Once  you 
start  looking  for  new  jeans  to 
show  off  your  slimmer,  new 
figiire,  he  offers  the  following 
tips  for  choosing  the  best 
styles  for  your  shape: 

Flatten  Your  Tummy: 
Stick  with  a  classic  dark 
wash,  with  a  little  stretch  for 
a  shmming  effect.  Select  a 
mid-rise  so  the  waistband 
lands  on  the  middle  of  your 
tummy  instead  of  above  it. 

Playing  Up  Your 
Curves:  Choose  a  wider 


waistband  and  avoid  a 
tapered  leg  (which 
exaggerates  your  curves).  A 
trouser  leg  would  be  fabulous 
on  you.  If  you're  shorter  than 
5 '4"  steer  clear  of  the  flared 
leg. 

Flatter  Your  Bottom:  If 
you  want  to  play  down  your 
backside,  avoid  fussy  pockets 
that  sit  high  on  your  bottom. 
If  you  want  to  raise  your 
bottom,  choose  a  jean  with 
back  pockets  that  are  closer 
together.  Always  go  with  a 
detailed  pocket,  which  will 
give  the  illusion  of  curves. 

Avoid  The  Waist  Gap: 
A  10  percent  stretch  in  the 
fabric  will  help  those  with 
smaller  waists  than  hips  avoid 
the  "waist  gap." 

Diminish  Your  Thighs: 
A  stretch  fabric  will 
accentuate  your  thighs,  so  go 
for  1 00  percent  cotton  denim 
that  skims  or  loosely  fits  your 
leg.  A  straight  leg  or  trouser 
leg  will  help  your  thighs  look 
a  little  thinner. 

Lengthen  Your  Legs:  If 
you  have  shorter  legs,  a  low- 
waist,  wide-leg  jean  will 
elongate  them.  If  you  have 
long  legs,  and  want  to 
accentuate  them,  wear  a  high- 
waist  jean.  A  wide-leg 
tapered-Ieg  jean  will  look 
great  and  give  you  the  lean 
lines  you  crave.

North's  Emily  Milone 
Sets  Soccer  Scoring  Marli 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

North  Quincy  High 
vSchooI  senior  midfielder 
Emily  Milone  made  school 
history  last  Sunday  afternoon 
in  a  game  against  Nantucket 
High  School. 

Milone,  a  captain  on  the 
2(X)7  Red  Raider  girls'  soccer 
team,  assisted  on  her  team's 
first  goal  in  a  6-0  rout  and 
with  that  point,  she  passed 
Tricia  Hughes  ('92)  and 
Betsy  Stone  ('99)  on  the 
school's  all-time  scoring  list. 
The  assist  gave  Milone  64 
total  points,  breaking  the 
previous  record  of  63.  For 
her  career,  Milone  has  30 
goals  and  39  assists.  The  next 
closest  player  on  the  all-time 
assist  list  is  Stone  with  21 . 

Milone,  who  has  been 
playing  soccer  since  she  was 
a  little  kid,  has  been  a  member 
of  the  varsity  program  for 
four  years,  and  according  to 
her  coach,  Paul  Bregoli,  she 
is  as  special  a  player  as  he 
has  ever  coached  in  his 
thirteen  years  manning  the 
sidelines. 

"(Emily)  is  the  most 
dedicated  talented  kid  I  have 
ever  had  play  at  this  level," 
Bregoli  said,  "she  made 
herself  into  the  player  that 
she  is.  Emily  has  worked  hard 
to  attain  her  status  as  the  ehte 
player  in  the  program.  She  is 
the  glue  that  holds  this  team 
together. 

"She  is  a  midfielder,  but 
this  year  especially,  Enrily 
has  played  where  ever  we 
needed  her  to  play.  I  have 
had  her  play  everywhere  just 
to  help  us  get  out  of  trouble 
and  help  get  this  season 
moving     in     the     right 


EMILY  MILONE  recently  broke  the  North  Quincy  High  School 
women's  soccer  scoring  record  in  a  game  against  Nantucket 
High  School.  During  her  four-year  career,  Milone  has  30  goals 
and  39  assists,  good  enough  for  65  points.  The  previous  record 
was  63  points. 


direction." 

The  Red  Raiders  currently 
have  a  6-7-4  record  and  need 
to  gain  two  wins  or  a  win  and 
a  tie  in  their  final  two  games 
to  make  the  post  season  for 
the  eleventh  time  in  the  last 
thirteen  season,  and  if  they 
do  Milone  will  be  a  major 
reason  that  it  happens.  On 
the  year,  Milone  has  eleven 
goals  and  five  assists,  but  it  is 
her  field  vision,  leadership 
and  soccer  aptitude  that 
makes  her  stand  out. 

"Emily  is  so  much  more 
mature  and  self  confident  this 


year  compared  to  seasons 
past,"  Bregoli  added.  "She  is 
much  more  animated  in  terms 
of  being  a  captain.  She  is 
instructive  with  the  kids,  she 
takes  time  to  teach,  and  that 
is  not  easier  for  her  to  do 
because  she  is  a  quite  kid,  but 
these  last  few  weeks  she  has 
been  pushing  the  team  to  get 
to  where  we  want  to  get. 

"But  just  as  a  player,  my 
goodness,  the  things  she  does 
with  the  ball,  her  passing  is 
off  the  charts.  Sometimes 
these  passes  are  almost  too

North  Quincy  Girls 
Aiming  For  Postseason 


For  the  North  Quincy 
High  School  varsity  girls' 
soccer  team,  it  all  boils  dow  n 
to  the  final  two  games  of  the 
regular  season.  Needing  three 
points  to  qualify  for  the  post 
season  for  the  eleventh 
consecutive  season,  the  Red 
Raiders  have  to  win  out  (4 
pts.)  or  win  and  draw  (3  pts.) 
to  earn  their  spot. 

North  Quincy  currently 
has  a  record  of  6-7-4  (16 
points)  and  need  to  reach  the 
19-point  plateau  to  qualify. 

The  team  has  three  games 
remaining,  against  Quincy 
High  School  on  Saturday  and 
against  Dennis- Yarmouth 
High  School  on  either 
Monday  or  Tuesday  of  next 
week.  The  third  game  against 
Notre  Dame  Academy  of 
Hingham,  which  was  played 
yesterday,  does  not  count 
towards  their  overall  record. 


"We  have  really  picked  it 
up  over  the  last  couple  of 
weeks,"  head  coach  Paul 
Bregoli  said.  "We  took  care 
ol'  our  business  last  week, 
and  we  need  to  come  out  and 
be  aggressive  in  these  final 
three  games.  It  really  could 
come  down  to  that  Dennis- 
Yarmouth  game  to  see  if  we 
can  get  back  to  the  post 
season." 

The  Red  Raiders  earned 
four  much  needed  points  last 
week  with  non-league  wins 
over  Fontbonne  Academy  (4- 
2)  at  home  and  on  the  island 
at  Nantucket  High  School  (6- 
0). 

Last  Sunday,  after  taking 
the  ferry  across  Cape  Cod 
Bay  to  Nantucket,  the  Raiders 
came  out  firing  to  start  the 
game.  Senior  Mary  Kate 
Stille  scored  in  the  opening 
minutes  of  the  first  half  to  put 


North  up  1-0  early.  The  goal 
uas  Stillc's  sixth  ot  the 
season. 

Senior  captain  Emily 
Milone,  who  assisted  on  the 
score  with  a  beautifully 
skilled  redirected  head  ball 
to  Stille  off  a  comer  kick, 
broke  the  school  scoring 
record  on  the  goal.  The  assist, 
her  fifth  of  the  season,  gave 
Milone  64  total  points, 
breaking  the  previous  record 
of  63  points  that  was  held  by 
Betsy  Stone  ('99)  and  Tncia 
Hughes  ('92). 

Senior  Paige  Bonnani 
scored  her  second  goal  of  the 
year  later  in  the  half  on  a 
perfect  feed  from  junior 
Kerry  Donaghey. 

Senior  defender  Simone 

Leary  added  her  first  tally  of 

the  season  late  in  the  opening 

half  on  a  40-yard  blast  to  put

only  accurate  way  to  detect  a 
weak  battery  is  with 
professional  equipment, 
however,  any  weekender  can 
scrape  corrosion  from  posts 
and  cable  connections,  clean 
surfaces  and  re-tighten 
connections.  Be  sure  to  wear 
eye  protection  and  rubber 
gloves  for  safety. 

•  Check  for  exhaust  leaks. 
Inspect  the  trunk  and 
floorboards  of  your  vehicle 
for  small  holes,  which  could 
emit  deadly  exhaust  fumes. 

•  Check  your  tread.  Worn 
tires  are  of  little  use  amid  the 
winter  elements.  Replace 
them  with  all-season  radials 
or  snow  tires,  depending  on 
your  climate. 

•  Replace  worn 
windshield  wipers,  and  keep 
plenty  of  washer  fluid  on 
hand. 

•  Put  a  bottle  of  fuel  de- 
icier  in  your  tank  once  a 
month  to  help  keep  moisture 
from  freezing  in  the  fuel  line.

North's  Emily  Milone  Sets  Soccer  Scoring  Mark 


(Cont'd  From  Page  29) 

good.  But  she  knows  where 
to  put  the  hall  and  that  is 
going  to  be  her  best  quahty 
moving  forward.  She  is  the 
best  player  this  city  has  ever 
seen." 

Milone,  who  plays  soccer 
year-round,  took  her  soccer 
to  a  higher  level  this  past 
July.  She  tried  out  for  and 
made  the  under- 1^  Region  I 
Olympic  Pool.  This  pool 
represents  states  in  the 
Northeast,  and  Milone  was 
one  of  just  two  players  from 
Mas.sachusetts  to  make  the 
25  women  roster.  And 
because  of  this 

accomplishment  she  has  been 


invited  to  travel  to  Cahfomia 
to  tryout  forthe  under-20  U.S. 
National  Olympic  Team  in 
the  winter  and  will  be 
traveling  to  Europe  with  the 
team  in  the  spring. 

For  a  player  of  her  stature. 
Milone  is  grounded  when  it 
comes  to  her  individual 
accomplishments  on  the 
field,  but  she  is  not  afraid  to 
set  her  goals  high  and  do 
what  is  needed  to  achieve 
them. 

"Breaking  the  record  was 
special  to  me  because  I  have 
been  working  hard,  and  that 
has  been  my  goal  since  the 
beginning  of  freshmen  year," 
Milone    said.    "1    started 


playing  when  I  was  six  years 
old.  1  played  on  my  older 
sister"  s  team  and  was  coached 
by  my  dad.  He  is  an 
inspiration  forme.  He  played 
soccer  in  Italy  and  he  is  a 
huge  part  of  my  success.  1 
just  love  playing  soccer  and 
it  keeps  my  mind  off 
everything  else." 

In  her  fourth  and  final 
year,  Milone  and  the  other 
team  captains  (Paige 
Bonnani,  Mary  Kate  Stille 
and  Kerry  Coughlin)  have 
taken  theirjobs  seriously,  and 
after  a  rough  stiul,  have  pulled 
together  to  give  the  Raiders  a 
chance  to  move  on.  Scoring 


records  for  her  are  nice,  but 
team  goals  and 

accomplishments  are  best. 

"We  struggled  out  of  the 
gate,  but  being  a  captain  we 
(not  I)  motivated  the  team, 
tried  to  get  them  to  step  up 
and  play  better  because  the 
team  goal  is  to  make  the  post 
.season."  she  said.  "We  have 
been  improving  lately  and 
hopefully  we  can  gel  there." 

Milone  may  have  made  a 
name  for  herself  on  the  local 
level  playing  for  the  Red 
Raiders,  but  it  is  her  play  on 
the  club,  travel  and  national 
level  that  has  earned  her  a 
full-ride  to  Division  I  Mercer 


University  in  Georgia  where 
she  will  play  on  the  women's 
soccer  team  and  where  she 
plans  on  majoring  in 
.1  o  u  r  n  a  I  i  s  m  / 
Communications. 

"The  coach  at  Mercer  saw 
me  play  in  Florida  at  the 
Orange  Classic  and  1  went 
down  there  about  three  times 
and  loved  it."  Milone  said. 
"Their  team  is  real  good  and 
they  are  in  first  place  in  the 
Atlantic  Sun  Contercnce. 
They  tell  me  Mercer  is  like 
the  EC  of  the  South,  I  am 
excited." 

During  her  four-year  high 
school  career,  Milone  has 


been  named  to  the  league  all- 
star  team  four  times,  has 
made  the  All-Scholastic  team 
the  last  three  years  (she  is  an 
honor  roll  student)  and  was 
named  an  HMASS  all-star 
last  year. 

"I  want  to  enjoy  my  next 
four  years  at  Mercer  and 
hopefully  continue  playing 
soccer  at  a  high  level 
nationally,"  Milone  added. 
"That  is  the  next  goal  1  have 
my  sights  set  on." 

If  her  past  is  any 
indication.  Hmily  Milone  is 
well  on  her  way  to  achieving 
this  goal  and  any  other  goal 
she  sets  her  mind  to.

the  Red  Raiders  up  3-0  at  the 
break. 

"We  had  a  lot  of  scoring 
opportunities  early  in  the 
game,"  said  Bregoli.  "Mary 
Kate  came  out  on  fire  and 
really  her  pace  helped  set  the 
team' s  pace.  On  the  first  goal, 
Milone  made  a  spectacular 
play  to  redirect  the  comer 
kick  and  Stille  just  had  to  tap 
it  in  for  the  goal.  The  assist 
was  pretty  much  what  Emily 
has  done  since  she  started 
four  years  ago.  She  is  a 
playmaker." 

Milone  added  to  her 
school  leading  point  total 


with  an  assist  at  the  start  of 
the  second  half.  Milone  set 
up  Bonnani  for  her  second 
goal  of  the  game  to  put  the 
Raiders  up  4-0. 

"Pretty  much  right  place 
right  time  for  Paige,"  stated 
Bregoli.  "Emily  put  it  right 
on  her  foot  and  she  buried  it 
for  the  goal.  Paige  played  a 
real  good  game  for  us" 

Stille  would  later  score 
her  second  goal  of  the  contest 
and  seventh  goal  of  the  year 
off  of  a  pass  from  Bonnani  ( 2 
goals,  I  assist).  Senior  Anne 
Marie  Price  finished  the 
scoring  with  her  first  varsity 
goal    late    in    the    game. 


Sophomore  Kristen  Peterson 
had  the  assist. 

Junior  Siobhan  Carnell 
earned  the  shutout  in  goal  for 
the  Raiders. 

North  Quincy  got  their 
week  started  off  on  the  right 
foot  with  a  4-2  win  over 
Fontbonne. 

Stille  and  Donaghey 
connected  early  in  the 
opening  half  to  put  the 
Raiders  up  1-0.  Donaghey 
found  Stille  streaking  from 
left  to  right  deep  in  Fontbonne 
territory  and  Stille  does  what 
all  goal  scorers  do.  she 
slammed  home  the  sconng 
opportunity. 


"We  started  out  real  slow 
and  Fontbonne  plays  us  tough 
every  time  we  play  them," 
said  Bregoli.  "But  the  first 
goal  loosened  us  up,  and  after 
Donaghey  made  a  beautiful 
pass  to  Mary  Kate  the  scoring 
chances  seemed  to  come 
quick." 


North  would  take  a  .3-0 
lead  on  .second  half  goals 
from  Milone  (assist  to  Stille) 
and  Bonnani  (assist  to 
Milone).  Fontbonne  scored 
to  make  it  3-1,  but  Kasey 
O'Connell  scored  her  first 
goal  of  the  year  (another 
assist  to  Milone)  to  account

Pointers  For  Parents 

Tips  On  Helping  Kids 
Walk  Safely  On  Halloween 

(NAPS)  -  Many  parents  find  Halloween  almost  as 
frightening  as  their  children  do-but  not  because  of  the  ghosts 
and  goblins.  Experts  say  the  holiday  is  one  of  the  most 
dangerous  times  of  the  year  for  children  to  walk  because  they 
will  be  out  trick-or-treating  in  the  dark  when  it  is  harder  for 
drivers  to  see  them. 

That's  why  it  can  be  a  particularly  good  time  for  parents 
to  remind  kids  of  the  rules  for  navigating  streets  and  sidewalks. 

•  Cross  streets  safely.  Cross  at  the  comer.  Try  to  make  eye 
contact  with  drivers  before  crossing  in  front  of  them.  Don't 
assume  that  because  you  can  see  the  driver,  the  driver  can  see 
you. 

•  Look  left,  right  and  left  again  when  crossing  and  keep 
looking  as  you  cross.  W  alk;  don't  run,  across  the  street. 

•  Walk  on  sidewalks  or  paths.  If  there  are  no  sidewalks, 
walk  facing  traffic  as  far  to  the  left  as  possible.  Children 
should  walk  on  direct  routes  with  the  fewest  street  crossings. 

•  Children  under  the  age  ol  10  should  not  be  out  walking 
ah>ne  without  aduli  suixMsision.  Children  under  age  12 
should  not  be  o\.\\  ualkiiiL'  alone  at  night.  11  kids  are  mature 
enough  to  be  mii  without  siipcr\  isit>n.  ihc\  should  siick  to  a 
predetermined  route  uith  good  light. 

•  Be  a  safe  pedcsii  ian  ari>und  c.  i  s.  Watch  t'(M  cars  that  are 
turning  t>r  bat^kiiig  up  Ne\erdarl  out  into  the  street  i)i  cross 
in  betu  ecu  |\ukcd  cai  s  .\lso.  its  impoiiaiit  lo  rcnienibci  that 
the  excitement  of  the  holiday  can  be  distracting  to  both 
diixers  and  children. 

"Parents  have  man\  concerns  on  Halloween  and  we  need 
to  remember  that  kids  must  be  reminded  about  safety  while 
walking  before  they  head  out,"  says  Dr.  Martin  Eiehelberger, 
co-founder  and  chairman  of  Safe  Kids  Worldwide. 

Eiehelberger  and  the  child  pedestrian  safety  experts  at 
Safe  Kids  offer  these  tips  to  keep  kids  safe: 

•  Decorate  costumes  and  bags  with  reflective  tape  or 
stickers  and.  if  possible  choose  light  colors. 

•  Choose  face  paint  and  makeup  whenever  possible  instead 
of  masks,  which  can  obstruct  a  child's  vision. 

•  Have  kids  carry  glow  sticks  or  flashlights  in  order  to  see 
better  as  well  as  be  seen  by  drivers. 

Parents  also  need  to  keep  in  mind  that  there  are  otlKf 
potential  hazards  for  children  on  that  night.  For  instance,  kids 
should  be  reminded  to  only  eat  treats  in  original,  unopened 
wrappers  and  to  throw  away  candy  if  the  wrapper  is  faded, 
torn  or  if  the  candy  is  unwrapped. 

Safe  Kids  Worldwide  and  program  sponsor  FedEx  created 
the  Safe  Kids  Walk  This  Way  program  to  help  prevent 
pedestrian-related  injury  to  children.  Visit 
www.usa.safekids.org/wtw  for  mcwe  helpful  information.

ARIES  (March  21  to  Apnl 

19)  You're  eager  to  Ram 
headfirst  into  that  new  pro- 
ject. But  before  you  do,  find 
out  why  some  of  your  col- 
leagues might  not  appear  to 
be  as  gung-ho  about  it  as  you 
are. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  All  that  dedicated  hard 
work  you've  been  putting  in 
pays  off  better  than  you 
expected.  So  go  ahead, 
reward  yourself  with  some- 
thing befitting  a  beauty-lov- 
ing Bovine. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  It's  a  good  time  to  take  on 
that  new  challenge.  And  if 
your  self-confidence  is  sag- 
ging, instead  of  telling  your- 
self why  you  can't  do  it.  list 
all  the  reasons  why  you  can. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  This  IS  one  time  when 
you  might  want  to  put  some 
distance  between  you  and  the 
job  at  hand.  It  will  give  you  a 
better  perspective  on  what 
you've  done  and  still  need  to 
do. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 

Resist  that  occasional  lapse 
into  Leonine  laziness  that 
sometimes  ovenakes  the  Big 
Cat.  Don't  cut  comers.  Dc 
the  )ob  nghi  at  this  tim.e,  or 
you  nr.ght  have  to  redo  it  lat- 
er. 

VIRGO  .August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22 1  ^bu  knov.  how 
you  like  to  do  things.  .And 
that's  tine.  But  watch  tha: 
you  don't  impose  your  meth- 
ods on  others.  A  current 
financial  crunch  soon  eases. 


LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  Someone  might 
try  to  take  advantage  of  your 
generosity.  But  before  your 
sensitivity  toward  others 
overwhelms  your  good 
sense,  check  his  or  her  stoi7 
out  carefully. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Your  strong 
Scorpian  sense  of  fairness 
lets  you  see  all  sides  of  a  dis- 
pute. Continue  to  remain 
impartial  as  you  help  each 
person  work  through  his  or 
her  particular  grievance. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Trust 
your  keen  Sagittanan  insight 
to  help  you  see  through  an 
offer  that  might  not  be  all  it 
claims.  A  closer  look  could 
reveal  disturbing  elements. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  With  the 
Goat  exhibiting  a  more  domi- 
nant aspect  these  days,  you 
could  find  It  easier  to  make 
your  case  m  front  of  even  the 
most  skeptical  audience. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  Asp»ects  favor 
relationships,  whether  pla- 
tonic,  professional  or  person- 
al. On  another  note:  Be  a  mite 
more  thnfty.  You  might  need 
some  extra  monev  verv  soon. 
PISCES  (February'  19  to 
March  20 ;  Recent  new  s  from 
someone  you  trust  could  help 
vou  make  an  important  deci- 
sion. .\lso,  be  prepared  to 
confront  an  upcom.ing 
change  in  a  personal  situa- 
tion. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  \bu 
can  be  llrm  in  your  own 
views,  but  also  flexible 
enough  to  welcome  the  view  s 
of  others.

THE  COMMITMENT  CONTINUES... 


RYAN,  MARTY,  MIKE,  ERIN  and  TARA 


Dear  Ncii^hhor, 

As  I  complete  my  first  term  as  your 

Councillor-at-Large,  I  want  to  thank  you 

tor  the  privilege  of  being  able  to  serve  our 

community. 

I  am  proud  of  my  accomplishments  over 
the  past  two  years.  As  the  Education 
Committee  Chairman,  1  have  worked  hard 
to  move  the  new  Quincy  High  School 
project  forward  and  to  ensure  that  we 
have  a  new  CV-ntral  Middle  School  and  a 
renovated  Sterling  Middle  School  for  our 
children. 

My  background  in  finance  has  enabled 
me  to  make  contributions  in  helping  to 

map  our  city's  future.  1  have  supported  long-term  capital  expenditures  in  our  city's  public  safety  and  public 
works  areas  such  as  the  purchase  of  two  new  pumpers  for  the  Quincy  Fire  Department  and  new  street  sweep- 
ers. Energy  upgrades  with  new  lights  and  boilers  are  now  in  over  thirty  municipal  buildings. 

I  have  spent  the  last  several  weeks  walking  the  streets  of  our  city  listening  as  you  voice  your  opinions  about 
Quincy.  I  have  been  overwhelmed  by  your  hospitality,  your  candor,  your  interest  and  your  concern  for  others. 

We  are  \  cry  lucky  that  Quincy  is  such  a  wonderful  place  to  live,  to  work  and  to  raise  our  families.  Our  con- 
tinued quality  of  life  depends  on  the  delicate  balance  of  neighborhood  concerns,  public  safety,  infrastructure, 
the  environment  and  the  qualify  of  future  development.  With  my  experience  in  business,  government  and  the 
community  I  feel  I  am  uniquely  qualified  to  continue  to  serve  as  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

With  your  help,  1  would  like  to  continue  my  commitment  to  public  service  in  the  City  of  Quincy.  You  hear  a 
lot  today  about  politicians  serving  only  the  special  interests.  My  promise:  You  will  be  my  only  special  inter- 
est, and  I  mean  it. 

Working  with  people  is  what  I  do  best.  Please  cast  one  of  yoiur  three  votes  on  Tuesday,  November  6th  for 
Mike  McFarland,  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

Thank  you, 

PLEASE  VOTE  ELECTION  DAY,  TUESDAY,  NOVEMBER  6  FOR:

City  Expects  $4  Million  Surplus 


Mayor  William  Phelan  an- 
nounced Tuesday  that  outside  au- 
ditors have  completed  their  review 
of  last  year's  budget  and  the  city 
has  managed  another  budget  sur- 
plus. 

The  auditors  and  Phelan  esti- 
mated that  the  budget  surplus  for 
Fiscal  Year  2007  to  be  approxi- 
mately $4  million. 

"Every  year  we  actively  manage 
our  municipal  budget  to  ensure  that 
we  do  not  spend  money  for  the  sake 
of  spending  money,"  said  Phelan. 
"After  inheritmg  budget  deficits,  I 
have  managed  to  return  a  budget 
surplus  for  every  budget  that  I  have 
created.  This  money  will  now  be 
used  consistent  with  the  fiscal  poh- 
cies  that  I  have  established  to  en- 
sure a  wise  financial  strategy  for 
our  city's  future." 

Phelan  established  fiscal  poli- 
cies two  years  ago  that  require  the 
city  to  place  reserves  into  a  stabili- 
zation or  "rainy  day"  fund.  The  sta- 
bilization fund  protects  taxpayers 
against  market  factors  that  could 
lead  to  future  spikes  in  tax  bills. 

Quincy  produced  thee  surplus 
while  close  to  70  communities  in 


Massachusetts  have  or  are  contem- 
plafing  Proposition  2  1/2  override 
votes,  Phelan  said. 

"Not  only  are  we  managing  our 
tax  rate  now,  we  are  managing  our 
operating  budget  to  establish  long- 
term  protection  for  our  taxpayers," 
said  Phelan.  "Our  taxpayers  need 
predictability  and  we  are  ensuring 
that  they  are  protected  by  putting 
money  in  the  bank.  The  stabiliza- 
tion fund  also  helps  improve  our 
bond  ratings,  saving  taxpayers  mil- 
lions of  dollars  in  interest  payments 
on  city  borrowings.  This  is  great 


news  for  our  taxpayers." 

Phelan's  fiscal  policies  also  call 
for  a  percentage  of  the  free  cash 
reserves  to  be  invested  in  a  five- 
year  capital  investment  plan.  The 
plan  calls  for  upgrades  to  fire  en- 
gines, school  buildings,  equipment, 
and  other  capital  needs. 

"We  are  wisely  investing  in  our 
future  by  targeting  areas  that  we 
can  stretch  our  resources  and  avoid 
future  costs.  Our  fiscal  manage- 
ment and  planning  policies  are  a 
successful  way  to  guarantee  long- 
term  fiscal  strength  for  our  city."

52%  Voter  Turnout 
Predicted  For  Nov.  6 

Phelan,  Koch 
Are  Seen  In 
Close  Finish 


In  what  is  seen  as  one  of  the 
closest  and  high  spending  mayoral 
races  in  recent  years  will  take  cen- 
ter stage  in  Quincy's  city  election 
next  Tuesday. 

Both  irjt  umbent  William 
Pliclan.  47,  and  challenger  Tom 
Koch,  44,  have  waged  hard-hitting 
campaigns  for  weeks  and  are  still 
at  It  as  they  come  down  the  home 
stretch. 

Phelan  is  seeking  a  fourth  term 
and  Koch,  who  resigned  in  Janu- 
ary after  1 2  years  as  Director  of  the 
Park,  Forestry  and  Cemetery  De- 
partments to  run,  is  looking  for  an 
upset. 

Koch  is  Phelan's  strongest  threat 
since  moving  into  the  mayor's  of- 
fice m  2002. 

Stay  the  course  or  change 
course?  That's  the  question  wait- 
ing for  voters  to  answer  next  Tues- 
day. 


Phelan  is  running  on  "my  proud 
record  of  accomplishments."'  Koch 
has  taken  issue  with  the  record  and 
says;  "wc  can  do  hcttei." 

Phelan,  Koch 

In  Their  Own 

Words  -  Page  3 

The  last  close  mayoral  race-and 
upset-was  in  2001  when  Phelan.  a 
virtual  political  newcomer  with  just 
two  years  on  the  School  Commit- 
tee, stunned  six  term  incumbent 
James  Sheets  by  1 7  votes,  the  clos- 
est mayoral  battle  in  the  city's  his- 
tory. 

The  voter  turnout  that  year  was 
47  percent.

By  TOM  HP:NSHAW 

The  Quincy  Retirement  Board 
has  revoked  the  $39,860  pension  of 
convicted  youth  rapist  Anthony 
Siciliano  but  his  attorney,  Frank 
Collins,  said  his  client  will  appeal 
the  decision  to  Quincy  District 
Court. 

Siciliano,  65.  retired  general 
foreman  in  the  Traffic  Department 
and  deputy  director  of  Emergency 
Management,  was  convicted  July 
30  on  three  counts  of  statutory  rape 
of  a  teen-aged  boy. 

He  is  currently  serving  a  four  to 
five  year  prison  term  but  Collins 
said  a  notice  of  appeal  of  the  con- 
viction has  been  filed  and  a  deci- 


sion is  expected  after  the  first  of  the 
year. 

In  order  to  revoke  Siciliano's

the  packed  Church  of  the 
Presidents. 

The  event  began  with 
words  by  Arthur  Ducharme, 
director  of  historic  interpre- 
tive program.  Ducharme 
spoke  of  letters  from  John 
Adams  while  in  France  to  his 
wife  Abigail.  He  said  that 
Adams  attributed  his  success 
to  his  wife  and  family,  and 
said  they  were  "over- 
whelmed by  challenges 
throughout  their  lives." 

Rev.  Sheldon  W.  Bennett, 
minister  of  the  church,  said 
that  Adams,  who  spoke 
about  freedom  and  equality 
and  religious  freedom  didn't 
live  to  see  the  completion  of 
the  church,  but  said  "Adams 
spirit  lives  in  the  stones  of 
this  church." 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
said  Adams  was  the  most 
"influential  person  in  this 
country."  Phelan  said  "free- 
dom creates  opportunity  and 
envision  that  any  child  can 
achieve  what  they  dream." 

Mary  Torrey,  a  student  at 
Woodward  School  for  Girls 
said  that  Abigail  Adams 
played  a  major  role  in  the 
education  of  her  children. 
She  spoke  about  her  grand- 


lather  who  was  a  test  pilot 
dui  ing  World  War  1 1  and  her 
grandmother  a  nurse  during 
the  war.  As  a  senior,  Torrey 
will  be  graduating  from 
Woodward  in  May  and  said 
the  graduation  will  be  held 
at  the  Church  of  The  Presi- 
dents. 

Caroline  Keinath,  Deputy 
Superintendent  of  the  Adams 
National  Historic  Park 
stressed  the  importance  of 
education  and  related  how 
sacrifices  made  during  the 
time  of  Adams  to  those  in  the 
military  who  are  also  sacri- 
ficing their  lives  for  their 
country. 

Dr.  Edward  Fitzgerald, 
executive  director  of  the 
Quincy  Historical  Society 
said  Adams  defended  liberty 
and  had  established  a  fund  to 
build  the  Church  of  the  Presi- 
dents before  his  death. 

F.  Douglas  Adams,  A.l.  A. 
Professor  of  Architecture  and 
a  descendent  of  President 
John  Adams,  after  welcom- 
ing the  guests,  said  "Happy 
Birthday  to  Red  Sox  Nation. 
He  said  he  couldn't  fit  a 
baseball  in  his  pocket,  but 
carried  a  small  one  as  he 
spoke  about  Adams .  He  said 
that  Adams  was  27  years  old 
before  he  realized  that  his 
birthday  was  not  on  Oct.  19 
as  depicted  on  a  calendar. 
Later,  the  calendar  changed 
and  showed  his  birthday  to 
be  Oct.  30. 

He  said  Adams  was  re- 
sponsible for  giving  the  first 
recognition  of  his  nation. 

Adams  said  there  were 
three  points  derived  from

second  friendship  and  the 
third  freedom  from  tyranny. 

He  spoke  about  a  snow 
ball  fight  which  culminated 
in  the  Boston  Massacre  in- 
volving several  soldiers  and 
ended  in  gun  fighting.  As  the 
lawyer  for  the  soldiers,  John 
Adams  defended  the  gun 
fighting  as  self  defense  and 
later  all  were  acquitted. 

He  said  later  Adams  re- 
flected that  the  trial  of  the 
Boston  Massacre  was  one  of 
his  greatest  achievements. 

Commander  William  A. 
Bullard  III  ,  representing 
President  George  W.  Bush, 
said  he  was  "inspired  to  see

The  laying  of  the  wreath 
was  placed  by  the  command- 
ing officer  and  personnel 
from  the  USS  Constitution. 

The  closing  words  were 
by  William  Westland  of  the

He  said  that  Adams  was  a

Mayoral  Candidates  In  Their  Own  Words 


William  Phelan: 

'Move  Forward  Or 
Reverse  Direction' 


Thomas  Koch: 


'We  Can  Do 
Better  For  Quincy' 


In  2007,  Quincy  stands  at 
a  crossroads.  Voters  can 
choose  to  continue  to  move 
forward  or  reverse  direction. 

Quincy  is  now  ready  for 
major  revitalization  in  our 
downtown,  Crown  Colony 
and  the  Shipyard;  revitaliza- 
tion that  will  benefit  every- 
one. 

New  growth  and  invest- 
ment means  that  our  residen- 
tial taxpayers  will  no  longer 
carry  an  under-performing 
downtown.  It  means  com- 
mercial tax  growth  to  the 
benefit  of  our  homeowners. 

New  ramps  at  Crown 
Colony  mean  millions  of 
dollars  in  private  investment. 

Why  is  this  necessary?  So 
we  can  continue  to  invest  in 
our  schools,  public  safety. 


WILLIAM  PHELAN 

fixing  streets,  helping  se- 
niors, and  improving  our 
great  neighborhoods. 

The  successes  of  the  past 
six  years  are  a  direct  result 
of  sound  financial  manage- 
ment and  strong  leadership. 

We  can  invest  in  all-day 


kindergarten  because  we 
turned  a  $5  million  budget 
deficit  into  a  $  16  million  sur- 
plus. 

We  can  pave  more  than 
100  new  streets  because  our 
Pavement  Management  Plan 
is  not  just  a  paving  plan;  it's 
an  investment  plan. 

We  can  have  low  class- 
sizes  and  the  second  safest 
city  in  Massachusetts,  be- 
cause we  stand  up  to  munici- 
pal unions  and  say  no  when 
it's  appropriate  to  do  so. 

We  can  be  the  first  com- 
munity to  launch  a  major 
energy  savings  program  be- 
cause of  strong  leadership. 

If  re-elected,  I  will  always 
stand  up  for  you;  the  tax- 
payer. I  respectfully  ask  for 
your  vote  on  Nov.  6. 


Mayor's  Food  Drive 
Collects  4,500  Pounds 


The  annual  Mayor's  Food 
Drive  collected  more  than 
4,500  pounds  of  food  for 
Quincy's  food  pantries. 

The  food  was  donated  by 
Quincy  residents  and  col- 
lected Saturday  by  members 
of  the  U.S.  Postal  Service. 

The  food  was  collected, 
sorted,  and  distributed  to  all 
of  Quincy's  food  pantries. 

"I  want  to  thank  ail  our 
residents  who  donated  food 
items  to  this  effort."  said 
Mayor  William  Phelan.  "The 
food  pantries  need  our  help 
as  they  prepare  for  the  holi- 
day season.  I  especially  want 
to  thank  the  men  and  women 
of  the  post  office  who  picked 
up  this  extra  work  to  help 


people  in  need." 

Phelan  initiated  a  second 
city  food  drive  four  years  ago 
after  a  Project  Bread  study 
highlighted  the  issue  of  hun- 
ger in  Quincy.  Phelan  orga- 
nizes city  help  to  assist  the 
Post  Office  with  their  annual 
spring  food  drive  as  well. 

"Quincy  residents  have 
continually  shown  how  gen- 
erous and  charitable  they  can 
be."  added  Phelan.  "1  am  of- 
ten humbled  by  the  kindness 
1  see  in  our  city  on  a  regular 
basis.  1  consider  myself 
proud  to  be  the  mayor  of 
such  a  great  and  generous 
city." 

The  drive  was  assisted  by 
the  Quincy  Hunger  Network; 


an  organization  formed  to 
help  raise  awareness  of  hun- 
ger in  Quincy.  The  network 
participates  in  a  number  of 
drives  to  help  Quincy's  local 
food  pantries. 

"We  are  doing  good 
work,  but  there  is  always 
more  that  we  as  a  commu- 
nity can  do  to  help  those  in 
need,"  said  Health  Commis- 
sioner Drew  Scheele.  "1  want 
to  thank  the  more  than  50 
volunteers  that  participated 
in  this  weekend's  food 
drive." 


I  am  running  for  mayor 
becau.se  1  love  this  city,  and 
1  know  we  can  do  better  for 
Quincy. 

Working  for  three  differ- 
ent mayors,  including  my 
opponent,  I've  worked  hard 
to  live  up  to  the  ideals  of  hard 
work,  helping  others  and 
treating  every  person  with 
respect.  We  need  those  val- 
ues at  city  hall  more  than 
ever,  and  that's  why  I  re- 
signed from  a  job  I  loved  as 
your  Park  Commissioner  to 
run  for  mayor.  We  need  lead- 
ership now. 

We  have  an  escalating 
drug  problem  in  this  city,  and 
I  have  a  plan  to  address  it. 

Overdevelopment  is  en- 
croaching in  our  neighbor- 
hoods, and  I'll  make  sure

traffic  signals  are  timed  and 
working  properly. 

We  have  a  school  con- 
struction project  in  dire  need

provide  it. 

We  have  school  buildings 
across  the  city  that  have  in- 
explicably failed  routine  fire 
inspections  for  several  years. 
I  will  make  sure  that  does  not 
happen  any  longer. 

We  have  so  many  chal-

and  I  respectfully  ask  your 
vote  on  Nov.  6.

Who  And  How  Close? 


PHELAN 


Who  and  how  close? 
1  hat's  the  big  political  question  as  the  slugging 
and  heavy  spending  mayoral  race  comes  down  to  the 
wire. 

Will  the  winner  be  incumbent  William  Phelan  or 
challenger  Tom  Koch? 

And,  by  how 
many  votes. 

Both  camps 
acknowledge  it's  a 
close  one  as  do 
observers. 

Some  see  a  little 
similarity  between 
this  race  and  that  historic  one  in  2001. 

riiat  was  the  year  when  Phelan,  with  only  two  years 
on  the  School  Committee  upset  six-term  incumbent 
James  Sheets  by  1 7  votes-the  closest  mayoral  election 
in  the  city's  history. 

Next  Tuesday  a  three-term  incumbent  is  seeking  a 
fourth  and  a  challenger  trying  to  upset  him  as  Phelan  did 
Sheets. 

Koch,  who  resigned  as  Park  Commissioner  after  12 
years  in  January  to  run  tor  mayor,  is  no  political 
newcomer.  He  has  run  for  the  city  council  and  county 
office  and  has  been  active  in  other  campaigns. 

No  one  is  talking  anything  like  a  1 7-vote  margin  next 
week.  But  tho.se  who  keep  tabs  on  mayoral  elections 
think  this  one  could  be  as  close  as  within  1,000  votes- 
give  or  take  a  few. 

There' s  no  argument  that  this  is  the  closest  race  since 
that  2001  Phelan-Sheets  classic. 

Or  that  Koch  is  Phelan' s  biggest  threat  since  taking 
office. 

Phelan  cruised  to  a  1 3, 1 1 7  to  4,775  second  term  win 
over  former  Ward  6  Councillor  Joseph  Newton  in  2003. 
In  2005  he  had  only  sticker  competition  for  a  third 
term. 

Voter  turnout  is  seen  as  a  major  factor  in  next  week' s 
outcome. 

City  Clerk  Joseph  Shea  expects  52  percent  of  the 
city's  53,569  registered  voters  casting  ballots.  He  calls 
it  "an  excellent"  mayoral  race  but  notes  the  voter 
turnout  would  be  higher  if  there  was  more  action  at  the 
ward  council  level. 

Five  of  the  ward  council  seats  are  unopposed.  Only 
contest  is  in  Ward  6  where  Brian  McNamee  is  challenged 
by  Jimmy  Liang. 

A  low  turnout  is  seen  favoring  Koch  whose  supporters 
are  described  as  "passionate"  and  certain  to  vote. 

The  turnout  in  2001  was  only  47  percent  favoring 
Phelan  whose  supporters  made  it  a  point  to  vote  while 
some  Sheets  followers  did  not,  thinking  he  was  a  sure 
winner.  Those  17  deciding  votes  were  big  ones. 

Both  camps  are  detemiined  to  get  their  vote  out  next 
Tuesday.

They  have  hundreds-and  hundreds-of  Phelan-green 
and  Koch-blue  signs  planted  on  front  lawns  throughout 
the  city  and  some  on  commercial  buildings. 

They  have  sent  out  mailings,  advertised  heavily  in 
newspapers,  debated,  appeared  at  numerous  coffee 
hours,  and  knocked  and  knocked  on  doors  throughout 
the  city. 

And  both  have  bought  time  on  television  to  deliver 
their  messages.  A  Quincy  candidate  on  paid  TV  is  not 
a  new  political  wrinkle,  however. 

James  Mclntyre 
used  TV  back  in 
1959  when  as  a 
young  city  council 
president  he 

challenged  veteran 
and  popular  Mayor 
Amelio       Delia 
Chiesa. 

Mclntyre  lost  by  2,100  votes  but  succeeded  Delia 
Chiesa  when  the  latter  retired  in  1966. 

There  have  been  a  few  close  mayoral  elections^ 
recent  years. 

One   was   the 
famed  1975 

recount  won  by 
Joseph  LaRaia 
over  incumbent 
Walter  Hannon  by 
483  votes. 

LaRaia  was  ousted  by  Arthur  Tobin  in  1977  but 
came  back  to  almost  upset  incumbent 
Frank  McCauley  in  1987.  McCauley 
won  by  only  460  votes  and  did  not 
seek  re-election  two  years  later. 

Both  McCauley 
and  LaRaia 

returned  to  the  City 
Council        after 
serving  as  mayor. 

Voter  interest  seems  to  have  been 
waning  in  recent  years  as  election 
turnouts  drop. 

The  Phelan-Sheets  match-up  in  2001  drew  only  47 
percent  of  the  registered  voters. 

Phelan  and  Joseph  Newton  brought  out  only  35 
percent  in  2003.  And  only  25  percent  voted  in  2005 
when  Phelan  had  just  sticker  competition. 
Pretty  low  compared  to  earlier  elections. 
Delia  Chiesa-Mclntyre,  75.5  percent  in  1959. 
Hannon- Joseph  Brett,  70.8  in  1971. 
Hannon-LaRaia,  70  percent  in  1975 
Sheets-Peter  O'Connell,  60.6  in  1989. 
Phelan  and  Koch  have  pulled  out  all  stops  to  get  their 
vote  out  next  Tuesday.  Maybe  the  turnout  will  be 
something  like  the  "good  old  days."

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


THIS  1923  postcard  is  a  view  of  tlie  end  of  Sea  Street 
when  Hougli's  Neck  still  boasted  of  numerous  amuse- 
ments and  attractions  for  visitors.  Other  than  Great  Hill 
in  the  right  distance  nothing  in  this  view  remains  to- 
day. Bay  View  Avenue  is  on  the  left  just  before  the  build- 
ing with  the  signs.  That  corner  was  the  long-time  home 
of  variety  stores,  but  along  with  the  building  beyond  it 
this  is  now  the  site  of  newly  built  condominiums.  In  the 
distance  Taylor's  Bowling  Alleys  was  previously  a  dance 
.hall  and  later  a  roller-skating  rink,  but  it  too  is  gone. 


Fensmere  Street  just  beyond  Taylor's  to  the  left  was 
home  to  a  large  hotel  and  that  site  is  also  condomini- 
ums. The  building  on  the  immediate  left  was  the  home 
of  the  family  that  owned  the  old  Palm  Theater  that  was 
next  to  it  and  it  is  now  a  parking  lot  for  Louis  Cross- 
ing. Slowly,  but  surely,  all  traces  of  commercial  activ- 
ity in  this  once  bustling  tourist  destination  are  disap- 
pearing. To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

Sal's  Back  And  Still  Doesn't  Like  That  Flag 


You  had  to  know,  you  had 
not  read  the  last  of  Sal 
Giarrataini.  Especially,  when 
it  comes  to  the  issue  of 
THAT  flag  in  Wollaston 
Center.  After  all,  it  was  the 
subject  of  my  very  last  letter 
to  the  editor  at  The  Qiiincy 
Sun  as  a  North  Quincy  resi- 
dent. 

I  still  read  The  Sun,  a 
habit  that's  over  23  years  old. 
As  a  member  of  Dorchester's 
DAV  Post  1 3  for  about  seven 
years  now.  I  wanted  to  thank 
both  Loren  Strout  and  Paul 


Hoadley  from  the  Bryan 
VFW  Post  for  their  recent 
Quincy  Sun  letters. 

I  have  stood  in  protest 
over  the  presence  of  the  flag 
over  Wollaston  Center.  That 
flag  bothers  many  others  and 
me. 

I  can't  believe  someone 
or  group  sawed  down  the 
flagpole.  I  do  not  condone 
that  action,  but  I  can  under- 
stand the  frustration  that  led 
to  that  kind  of  action. 

Before  moving  to  Quincy 
in  1984,  I  lived  around  the 


comer  from  the  Bunker  Hill 
Monument  and  within  sight 
of  the  USS  Constitution.  My 
time  in  Charlestown  led  to 
my  community  activism. 
Our  flag  isn't  just  a  flag;  it  is 
a  symbol  for  individual  lib- 
erty. Freedom  isn't  free,  it  is 
very  costly.  Getting  involved 
where  you  live  is  living  out 
the  principles  for  which  our 
flag  stands  for. 

When  I  see  the  flag  of  the 
People's  Republic  of  China 
flying,  I  see  a  symbol  for 
everything  our  flag  doesn't 
stand  for  or  represents. 


The  Chinese  United  As- 
sociation needs  to  under- 
stand all  the  anger  the  flying 
of  the  Chinese  flag  engen- 
ders in  so  many. 

If  you  wish  to  be  good 
neighbors  and  become  part 
of  the  community  at  large, 
you  don't  fly  a  flag  that  an- 
gers people. 

I  do  appreciate  that  the 
Chinese  United  Association 
still  flies  the  American  flag, 
a  flag  that  unites  America 
and  Quincy,  too!

Respect  The  Rights  Of  Self  And  Others 


It  disgusts  me  that  the 
flagpole  of  the  Chinese 
United  Association  Head- 
quarters U.S.A.  in  Wollaston 
has  been  sawed  off. 

I  ask  the  perpetrators  (or 
pranksters):  What  do  "free- 
dom" and  "liberty"  and  "de- 
mocracy" mean  to  you? 
What  do  you  not  understand 
about  The  Constitution  and 
The  Bill  of  Rights!  Under 
what  circumstances  when 
hate  manifests  itself  is  it  not 
a  crime? 

In  the  Unites  States,  citi- 
zens are  free  to  disagree. 
This  freedom  ought  not  to 
not  be  conjoined  to  violence 
unless  in  self  defense-a 
genuine  threat  of  bodily 
harm,  body  implying  self 
and  others,  or,  simply,  us. 

I,  too.  dislike  any  value 
system  that  would  impose 
itself  upon  me  at  the  expense 
of  my  welfare.  (The  Bush 
administration  does  so  with 
apparent  impunity.  History 
books  will  make  this  claim 
evident).  But  an  idea  (an 
ideal)  cannot  hurt  me  if  it 


remains  an  idea  (and  not  a 
physically  harmful  act 
against  me).  9-11  is  violence 
that  calls  for  just  response 
(including  death,  if  neces- 
sary). 

Our  world  is  uneasy.  As 
ever,  greed,  selfishness,  hy- 
pocrisy abound.  It  is  yet  dif- 
flcult  to  balance  eye  for  eye- 
turning  cheek.  But  to  right  a 
wrong  we  must  not  act 
wrongly. 

Men  and  women  have 


fought  and/or  died  to  pre- 
ser\'e  the  United  States.  They 
will  doubtless  continue  to  do 
so-when  the  cause  is  just, 
and,  thereby,  reconcilable  in 
conscience.  The  sacrifice  ol 
self  for  other  cannot  be  hon- 
ored by  dishonorable  acts 
(e.g.,  acts  against  the  core  of 
our  country,  justifiable  anger 
promoting  wrong-headed  re- 
venge). 

At  the  comer  of  Beale  and 


Hancock  in  Wollaston  is  our 
small  world  of  diverse  sys- 
tems. I  suggest  we  keep  a 
keen  eye.  Our  deeds  deserve 
the  measured  best  from  us. 
Be  a  good  citizen.  Keep  the 
support  and  protest  civil. 
Respect  the  rights  of  self  and 
other.  Let  democracy  guide 
your  actions.  That's  what  the 
United  States  is  all  about.

SMYTH  SEEKS  COVERING  FOR 
NORTH  QUINCY  PEDESTRIAN  OVERPASS 

Ward  6  CouncillorJ.  Vincent  Smyth  has  asked  the  MBTA

Veal  Stew  With  Dumplings 


Did  wc  linally  have  a  cool  t.ill-likc  clay? 
And  Ihal's  ihc  day  wc  had  a  dchcioiis  veal 
slow  dinner  with  lliilTy  dumpling's.  Sound 
good?  And  so  easy,  you  could  make  it  the  day 
before  and  then  when  you  come  home  from 
work,  just  le-heat  it  and  it  will  even  taste 
better.  Use  a  wide  pan  like  a  dutch  oven  pan 
so  the  dumplings  will  lit  well  on  top. 
Veal  Slew  With  Dumplings 

1  i/2  pound  veal  (cut  in  bite  size  pieces) 
1/4  cup  white  wine  (optional) 

2  cups  chicken  stock  ( tastier  than  using 
water) 

salt  and  pepper  to  taste 
2  medium  sized  potatoes  (cut  in  bite 
size) 

2  large  carrots  also  cut 

1  cup  of  frozen  peas  (optional) 
oil  for  sauteing 

2  cloves  of  garlic  (chopped)  or  onion  or 
both 

Co.il  the  \c;ii  v\itli  Hour  salt  and  pepper, 
in  a  deeii  P'lii  in  hoi  oil,  saute  the  ijarlic  and 


onion  and  the  veal  turning  for  a  few  minutes. 
Add  the  wine,  chicken  stock,  the  potatoes, 
carrots,  cover  and  cook  until  vegetables  are 
tender. 

At  the  last  minute,  add  the  peas.  II  you 
need  to  add  more  liquid,  it  can  either  be  more 
chicken  stock  or  a  little  water.  If  you  want  an 
easier  recipe  for  dumplings,  there  is  one  on 
the  Bisquiek  box,  but  if  you  want  a  Huffier 
one,  you  will  like  the  following  recipe 
Fluffy  Dumplings 

1  cup  flour 

2  teaspoons  baking  powder 
salt 

1/2  cup  milk 

2  tablespoons  vegetable  oil 

Place  the  Hour,  baking  powder  and  salt 
together  in  a  howl.  Combine  the  milk  and  oil 
and  aild  to  the  Hour  mixture.  Stir  until  moist- 
enetl.  Drop  from  tablespoons  on  top  of  bub- 
bling stew  Reduce  heat  and  cover.  Cook  for 
12  to  \5  minutes.

Koch  Wants  Phelan's  Explanation 
On  Failed  School  Fire  Inspections 


Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  Tuesday  demanded 
that  Mayor  William  Phelan 
explain  why  he  did  not  in- 
form the  School  Committee 
or  the  public  about  schools 
failing  multiple  fire  inspec- 
tions and  why,  he  said,  the 
mayor  did  not  release  the  fire 
inspection  reports  until 
forced  to  by  state  public  in- 
formation laws. 

'This  episode  gets  to  the 
heart  of  how  this  mayor  runs 
city  hall.  It  shows  the  clear 
lack  of  leadership  that  we'  ve 
been  talking  about  changing 
over  the  last  10  months," 
Koch  said.  "The  first  thing 
the  mayor  did  in  this  case 
was  point  fingers,  the  second 
thing  he  did  was  blame 
someone  else,  and  now  he's 
not  saying  anything.  That's 
not  leadership,  and  that's 
what  we  plan  to  change." 

Koch  said  fire  inspection 
reports  dating  back  several 
years  and  released  Friday 
detailed  numerous  safety-re- 
lated failures  at  Quincy  High 
School,  Quincy  Vo-Tech, 
Atlantic  Middle  School, 
Central  Middle  School, 
Atherton  Hough  School  and 
several  other  schools.  Many 
of  the  failures  occurred  time 
and  time  again,  frustrating 
the  fire  inspectors,  Koch 
said. 

According  to  new  reports, 
Koch  said,  more  than  half  of 
the  city's  schools  failed  the 
most  recent  round  of  inspec- 
tions. In  many  cases,  the 
same  violations  of  state  fire 
code  were  reported  repeat- 
edly in  quarterly  reports  over 
the  course  of  several  years. 
Among  other  issues,  the  re- 
ports released  by  the  fire  de- 
partment showed: 

Quincy  Vocational  Tech- 
nical School  has  not  passed 
an  inspection  since  at  least 
the  middle  of  the  last  year, 
he  said.  In  at  least  iwo  in- 


stances highlighted  by  fire 
inspectors,  exit  doors  were 
chained  shut  in  the  school, 
Koch  said. 

Quincy  High  School  has 
not  passed  a  fire  inspection 
in  at  least  a  year.  In  many 
cases,  fire  inspectors  noted 
that  "previous  violations 
have  not  been  corrected." 

Central  Middle  School 
has  not  passed  an  inspection 
in  at  least  a  year,  and  fire  of- 
ficials highlighted  several 
issues  that  were  not  corrected 
between  inspections,  Koch 
said.  Emergency  lighting  on 
the  third  floor  of  the  build- 
ing was  a  problem  over  the 
course  of  several  inspec- 
tions. 

North  Quincy  High 
School  has  not  passed  a  fire 
inspection  since  2003,  with 
a  series  of  problems  never 
corrected  over  that  time  pe- 
riod, Koch  said.  The  recur- 
ring problems  included  fire 
extinguishers  that  were  not 
inspected  for  several  years 
and  fire  extinguishers  that 
were  missing  throughout  the 
building. 

Atlantic  Middle  School, 
he  said,  has  not  passed  a  fire 
inspection  since  2004,  in- 
cluding several  missing 
smoke  detectors  that  have 
not  been  replaced  between 
several  inspections. 

Koch  first  raised  the 
failed  fire  inspection  reports 
at  a  debate  Oct.  16.  Phelan 
expressed  no  knowledge  of 
the  failures.  Immediately  fol- 
lowing the  debate,  the  Koch 
campaign  and  several  media 
outlets  submitted  requests  to 
the  fire  department  under  the 
state's  Public  Records  Law. 
Phelan's  administration  re- 
fused to  release  the  reports 
until  forced  by  the  Act's  10- 
day  deadline  period,  Koch 
said. 

Koch  released  reports  on 
his  website. 


www.kochforquincy.com. 

Koch  said  Phelan's  recent 
refusal  to  make  public  the 
troubling  fire  inspection  re- 
ports is  consistent  with 
Phelan's  move  several  years 
ago  to  keep  secret  the  fact 
that  his  administration  had 
lost  millions  in  state  funding 
for  a  new  Central  Middle 
School;  his  ongoing  denial  of 
an  escalating  drug  problem 
in  the  city;  and  is  refusal  to 
acknowledge  growing  traffic 
and  overdevelopment  issues 
around  the  city. 

"Losing  the  city  millions 
of  dollars  and  not  telling  any- 
one is  bad  enough.  Now  the 
mayor  is  doing  his  utmost  to 
make  sure  that  the  public 
knows  as  little  as  possible 
about  the  failed  fire  inspec- 
tions at  city  schools,"  Koch 
said. 

Phelan,  as  mayor,  is  chair- 
man of  the  School  Conmiit- 
tee.  No  school  committee 
minutes  contain  any  mention 
of  the  failed  fire  inspections 
by  Phelan. 

"It  is  appalling  that  the 
mayor  chose  to  keep  elected 
school  conwriittee  members 
in  the  dark  about  the  fire  in- 
spections within  the  school 
system,"  Koch  said.  "As 
mayor,  I  will  ensure  that  ev- 
eryone who  needs  to  know 
about  vital  safety  informa- 
tion will  get  that  information. 
I  will  never  jeopardize  the 
safety  of  our  children  be- 
cause of  political  conve- 
nience."

John  And  Abigail  Adams 
Toasted  With  Apple  Cider 
On  Wedding  Re-enactment 


By  LAI!RA(;KIFKIN 

The  roll  ola  drum  and  the 
uhislk's  of  rifc's  grccMcd 
nt"ul\  weds  John  and  Ahiizail 
Adams  when  Ihey  arrived  at 
their  wedding  reception  on 
Franklin  Street  last  week. 

Men  in  wigs,  ruiried 
shirts,  britches  and  knee- 
stockings  saluted  the  couple, 
as  did  their  ladies  in  hoop 
skirts  and  bow-tied  bonnets 
and  their  little  ones  wrapped 
in  cloaks  and  mufflers. 

Also  hailing  the  couple 
were  some  64  iourth  graders 
irom  the  Lincoln  Hancock 
Conuiuinity  School.  West 
Quincy.  who  played  the  part 
o\  neighborhood  potters, 
blacksmiths.  tarmers. 
clockniakers  anil  taiK>rs. 

The  students  presented 
ribbon-tied  scrolls  with 
congratulations  for  Mr.  and 
Mrs.  Adams  and  with 
descriptions  of  their  wedding 
gifts  to  the  couple. 

Then,  the  nearly  100 
guests  saluted  the  bride  and 
gr(x)m  with  stemmed  glas.ses 
filled  to  the  brim  with  apple 
cider. 

These  events  in  Quincy 
climaxed  the  re-enactment  of 
the  wedding  in  1764  of 
Abigail  Smith  and  John 
Adams.  The  ceremony  took 
place  at  The  First  Church 
Weymouth  on  October  25, 
the  same  day  as  the  original 
rites. 

Abigail  Elias,  an  eighth 
generation  descendant  of 
John  and  Abigail  Adams, 
served  as  bride  for  the  day. 
Elias  designed  and  hand- 
sewed  her  pale  blue  wedding 
dress  patterned  after  18th 
century  outfits. 

Michael  LePage,  a  well- 
known  actor,  portrayed  John 
Adams  and  wore  a  vest 
woven  with  symbols  of  wheat 
similar  to  Adams'  actual  vest 
which  is  now  in  the  Quincy 


Historical  Society. 

Alter  the  ceremony,  the 
bridal  party  traveled  to  the 
grounds  of  the  adjoining 
Adams"  homes  in  Quincy  for 
a  tt»ast .  John  Adams  was  bom 
at  141  Franklin  Street. 
Adjacent  to  that  is  133 
Franklin  Street  where  the 
newlyweds  lived  and  where 
John  Quincy  Adams  was 
bom. 

Adams  would  become  the 
country's  second  president; 
their  son,  John  Quincy 
Adams,  was  elected  sixth 
president. 

The  couple  was  married 
for  54  years  and  the  fourth 
graders  predicted  the 
successful  partnership  in 
their  letters. 

The  Iburth  graders'  letters 
described  the  great  esteem 
they  hold  for  the  Adams 
family  who.  like  them,  settled 
in  Quincy.  At  the  lime,  the 
homes  on  Franklin  Street 
were  still  part  of  Braintree. 
"1  admire  you,"  wrote 
Joao  Pedro  Nascimento  who 
came  from  Brazil  last 
summer.  "Everyone  says  that 
you  are  a  special  person." 

Demari  Daley  acted  as 
local  potter  and  described  the 
wedding  gift.  "1  worked 
really  hard  on  it.  1  made  it 
large  so  you  can  put  a  large 
amount  of  flowers  in  it.  I 
painted  it  with  all  sorts  of 
flowers  in  it." 

"If  you  ever  need  another 
pot.  I'm  just  a  letter  away," 
concluded  Demari. 

The  tailor,  Maggie  Parker, 
made  breeches  and  riding 
hoods  while  clockmaker 
Jenna  Wermers  described  her 
creation  of  a  silver  and 
diamond  watch. 

"You  are  both  really  great 
people,"  wrote  the  baker. 
Brianna  McDerroott  while 
the  butcher  Brenna  Tabbut 
cheered  'The  joining  of  two 


wonderful  families  is  good 
for  all  of  our  people  because 
you  two  are  really  smart  and 
your  children  will  be  lucky 
to  have  such  good  parents." 
"They  each  took  a  role  as 
a  colonist,"  said  Grade  4 
teacher  Ron  Pettinelli  who 
said  the  students  chose  law 
clerks,  farmers,  and 
blacksmiths  in  honor  of  the 
colonists  who  fled  the  British 
in  Boston  and  were  harbored 
by  Abigail  Adams  at  their 
Adams  Street  home. 

Pettinelli  said  he  was 
proud  of  the  nine,  10  and  1 1- 
year  olds  who  role-played 
their  parts  and  were  "so  well 
behaved.  They  were  in  awe." 
Teachers  Elizabeth 
DeSorgher,  Maryann  Hunter, 
and  Kathleen  Foley  and  their 
students  participated  in  the 
ceremony.  Chaperones 
included  retired  fourth  grade 
teachers  Karin  Dempsey  and 
Carol  Bailey. 

The  wedding  celebration 
is  one  of  many  events  planned 
this  year  to  mark  the  60th 
anniversary  of  the  sponsors, 
Adams  National  Historical 
Park  and  Abigail  Adams 
Society,  Weymouth. 

Also  sponsoring  last 
week's  event  was  The  First 
Church  of  Weymouth  where 
the  bride's  father  served  as 
minister. 

Paula  (Muffy)  Lutzin  of 
Quincy  and  JoAnn  Waithe 
of  Millbury  played  the  fifes 
with  drummer  Richard 
Ruquist  of  Grafton. 

Marianne  Peak  is 
superintendent  of  Adams 
National  Historical  Park. 
Among  those  planning  the 
festivities  were  Caroline 
Keinath  and  Karen  Yourell 
of  the  Adams  National  Park 
and  Judith  Aluk(MUs  of  the 
Abigail  Adams  Historical 
Society.

THE  COMMITMENT  CONTINUES... 


RYAN,  MARTY,  MIKE,  ERIN  and  TARA 


Dear  Neighbor, 

As  I  complete  my  first  term  as  your 

Councillor-at-Large,  I  want  to  thank  you 

for  the  privilege  of  being  able  to  serve  our 

community. 

I  am  proud  of  my  accomplishments  over 
the  past  two  years.  As  the  Education 
Committee  Chairman,  I  have  worked  hard 
to  move  the  new  Quincy  High  School 
project  forward  and  to  ensure  that  we 
have  a  new  Central  Middle  School  and  a 
renovated  Sterling  Middle  School  for  our 
children. 

My  background  in  finance  has  enabled 
me  to  make  contributions  in  helping  to 

map  our  city's  future.  I  have  supported  long-term  capital  expenditures  in  our  city's  public  safety  and  pubHc 
works  areas  such  as  the  purchase  of  two  new  pumpers  for  the  Quincy  Fire  Department  and  new  street  sweep- 
ers. Energy  upgrades  with  new  lights  and  boilers  are  now  in  over  thirty  municipal  buildings. 

I  have  spent  the  last  several  weeks  walking  the  streets  of  our  city  listening  as  you  voice  your  opinions  about 
Quincy.  I  have  been  overwhelmed  by  your  hospitality,  your  candor,  your  interest  and  your  concern  for  others. 

We  are  very  lucky  that  Quincy  is  such  a  wonderful  place  to  live,  to  work  and  to  raise  our  families.  Our  con- 
tinued quality  of  life  depends  on  the  delicate  balance  of  neighborhood  concerns,  public  safety,  infrastructure, 
the  environment  and  the  qualify  of  future  development.  With  my  experience  in  business,  government  and  the 
community  1  feel  I  am  uniquely  qualified  to  continue  to  serve  as  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

With  your  help,  I  would  like  to  continue  my  commitment  to  public  service  in  the  City  of  Quincy.  You  hear  a 
lot  today  about  politicians  serving  only  the  special  interests.  My  promise:  You  will  be  my  only  special  inter- 
est, and  I  mean  it. 

Working  with  people  is  what  I  do  best.  Please  cast  one  of  your  three  votes  on  Tuesday,  November  6th  for 
Mike  McFarland,  your  Councillor-at-Large. 

Thank  you, 

PLEASE  VOTE  ELECTION  DAY,  TUESDAY,  NOVEMBER  6  FOR:

Mayor  William  Phelan 
says  that  Quincy  will  once

Phelan  cited  a  number  of 
reasons  for  the  tax  decrease: 

Reducing  taxpayers'  ex- 
posure to  increasing  em- 
ployee benefit  costs  by  rene- 
gotiating with  municipal 
unions;  the  Employee  Ben- 
efit budget  appropriation  was 
decreased  by  $500,(X)0  this

stance  on  employee  sharing 
a  larger  percentage  of  their 
health  care. 

Increases  in  the  projected 
values  of  commercial  prop- 
erties in  and  around  down- 
town Quincy,  in  large  part 
because  of  the  Phelan 
administration's  efforts  to  re- 
zone  and  revitalize  down- 
town Quincy. 

The  switch  to  an  Enter- 
prise Fund  for  calculating 
water  and  sewer  expenses, 
which  better  charges  indirect 
costs  to  larger  commercial 
users  such  as  Quarry  Hills 
Golf  Course,  the  MWRA 
pLint,  .Sithe  Energy,  and 
other  major  users. 

Holding  the  line  on  mu- 
nicipal budget  spending; 
Phelan  reduced  the  munici- 
pal workforce  by  close  to 
100  employees  and  reduced 
expenditure  lines  by  lO-IO^'f 
in  most  departments. 

A  stronger  concerted  ef- 
fort to  identify  commercial 
personal  property  such  as 
computers,  office  equipment 
and  other  taxable  items. 

"We  have  worked  ex- 
tremely hard  to  keep  the  in- 
terests of  our  taxpayers  in 
mind,"  said  Phelan.  "It  isn't 
always  a  popular  decision  to 


say  no  on  behalf  of  taxpay- 
ers but  the  financial  health  of 
our  city  is  the  foundation  on 
which  we  build  all  of  our 
successes;  successes  like  all- 
day  kindergarten,  new  streets 
and  sidewalks,  small  class- 
size,  and  being  categorized 
as  the  second  safest  city  in 
Massachusetts.  1  will  con- 
tinue to  stand  up  for  our  tax- 
payers in  every  decision  that 
1  make." 

The  City  of  Quincy's  As- 
sessors' Office  is  currently 
working  with  Vision  Tech- 
nologies to  finalize  the  num- 
bers to  present  to  the  Depart- 
ment of  Revenue  (DOR)  for 
pre-certification. 

"Due  to  a  number  of  fac- 
tors, everything  we  have 
seen  is  pointing  toward  an- 
other reduction  in  the  aver- 
age single-family  tax  bill  for 
the  upcoming  year,"  said 
City  Assessor  Jolanta 
Briffett. 

Quincy  reduced  the  aver- 
age single-family  tax  bill 
three  years  ago.  Phelan  said 
Quincy's  increases  are  the 
lowest  of  any  city  in  the  state 
for  the  past  three  years  ac- 
cording to  a  study  completed 
by  the  Research  Director  for 
the  Quincy  Taxpayers  Asso- 
ciation.

WARD  6  CITY  GOHNCIILOR 


Dear  Friend  and  Neighbor, 

My  name  is  Jimmy  Liang  and  I  am  a  candidate  for  city  councilor  to  represent  Ward  Six  in  Quincy.  My  family  left 
communist  China  when  I  was  a  baby  and  came  to  the  democratic  United  States  of  America  in  search  of  a  better  life. 
We  found  what  we  were  looking  for  in  Quincy,  the  city  of  Presidents.  As  an  American,  1  have  the  freedom  to  run  for 
public  office.  This  would  not  be  possible  if  I  was  still  in  China. 

I  am  proud  to  be  an  American. 

Franklin  Delano  Roosevelt  taught  our  greatest  generation  the  four  freedoms: 

"The  first  is  freedom  of  speech  and  expression  —  everywhere  in  the  world. 

The  second  is  freedom  of  every  person  to  worship  God  in  his  own  way  —  everywhere  in  the  world. 

The  third  is  freedom  from  want . . .  everywhere  in  the  world. 

The  fourth  is  freedom  from  fear . . .  anywhere  in  the  world." 

i  am  proud  to  stand  for  these  freedoms  and  1  am  grateful  for  those  who  fought  for  them. 

Our  city  has  a  history  of  immigrant  populations  settling  here;  and  whether  they  be  Italian,  Irish,  Chinese,  or  Vietnam- 
ese they  all  came  to  love  and  cherish  this  great  country.  Today,  there  is  a  communication  problem  in  the  City  of 
Quincy.  We  need  to  understand  that,  for  better  or  worse,  cultural  and  racial  diversity  is  reality  for  the  present  and 
future.  This  makes  communication,  tolerance  and  understanding  more  important  than  ever  before.  If  we  make  com- 
munication a  priority  we  can  continue  to  improve  the  quality  of  life  that  our  parents,  grandparents  and  great  grand 
parents  sacrificed  so  much  to  achieve  for  us 

• 

Quincy  has  remained  Quincy  through  times  of  change  and  prospered  as  new  populations  assimilate  into  our  society. 
I  grew  up  here,  my  life  and  home  is  here.  Quincy  will  always  remain  my  home  town. 

I  am  proud  to  be  from  Quincy. 

If  you  elect  me  your  Ward  Six  city  councilor,  I  will  make  sure  that  you  are  proud  of  me,  Jimmy  Liang. 

Sincerely,

Jewish  War  Veterans 
To  Honor  Larry  Norton 


Safety  Advances  Added 
To  Quincy  Ave.  -  Artery  Crossing 


Quincy's  Jewish  War  Vet- 
erans will  honor  Lawrence 
M.  "Larry"  Norton  with  its 
Citizen  of  the  Year  Award 
Sunday,  Nov.  4,  at  9:30  a.m. 
at  the  Morrisette  Legion 
Post,  81  Liberty  St. 

Norton,  a  past  com- 
mander of  the  Morrisette 
Post  and  the  0"incy  Veter- 
ans Council,  served  nine 
months  in  Vietnam  from 
Aug.  1966  to  April  1%7  suf- 
fering wounds  from  shrap- 
nel. 

He  was  a  Marine  corpo- 
ral (or  H-.*))  aboard  the  USS 
Guadalcanal,  an  LPH  (land- 
ing platform  helicopter),  a 
small  aircraft  carrier,  when 
he  suffered  mortar  wounds  in 


LARRY  NORION 

a  firelight. 

He  joined  the  Marines  in 
1965  shortly  after  his  gradu- 
ation fr(»m  Somerville  Trade 
School  and  was  discharged 
two  years  later,  after  which 
he  became  a  union  elevator 


constructor  and  taxi  dis- 
patcher. 

Norton  is  a  39-year  mem- 
ber of  the  Morrisette  Legion 
Post  and  a  life  member  of  the 
Caddy  Detachment  Marine 
Corps  League,  the  DAV  and 
the  Military  Order  of  the 
Purple  Heart. 

He  is  president  of  the 
Vietnam  Combat  Veterans  of 
Quincy,  past  commander  of 
Norfolk  County  Legion  Dis- 
trict 6  and  a  member  of  the 
Second  Marine  Division 
Northeast  Region  and  the 
Semper  Fidelis  Society  of 
Boston. 

He  and  his  wife,  Ruth 
Karen,  have  three  children, 
Pamela,  Kevin  and  Michael 
and  a  daughter-in-law,  Julie. 


The  city  has  added  a  dedi- 
cated pedestrian-activated 
light  and  traffic  stop  to  the 
complicated  intersection  of 
Quincy  Avenue  and  South- 
em  Artery  as  a  safety  mea- 
sure for  senior  shoppers  who 
cross  at  that  point. 

The  new  arrangement 
will  prevent  northbound  mo- 
torists from  making  right 
turns  from  Quincy  Avenue 
onto  the  Artery  without  stop- 
ping, enabling  residents  of 
1000  Southern  Artery  to 
reach  the  stores  on  Falls 
Boulevard  more  safely. 

"The  issue  was  raised  at 
a  community  meeting  at 
1000  Southern  Artery  and  I 


think  it  will  make  a  signifi- 
cant difference  in  allowing 
residents  to  go  food  shop- 
ping safely,"  said  Mayor 
William  Phelan. 

"Many  people  that  cross 
at  this  light  are  seniors  who 
need  a  few  seconds  to  cross 
this  large  intersection.  The 
new  pedestrian  button  will 
allow  them  the  time  and 
piece  of  mind  that  they  de- 
serve." 

The  work  was  performed 
by  Bell  Traffic  Signal  during 
the  past  month. 

Other  senior  pedestrian 
safety  improvements  have 
been  made  around  the  city 
recently,  including  the  con- 


tinued installation  of  signage 
and  street  marking  for  the 
"senior  safety  zones." 

City  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  has  introduced 
legislation  to  reduce  the 
speed  limit  around  senior  liv- 
ing complexes  to  20  miles  an 
hour. 

"A  key  ingredient  to  im- 
proving our  pedestrian  safety 
is  to  invest  in  the  necessary 
infrastructure,"  said  Phelan. 

"There's  no  magic  wand 
to  make  these  issues  disap- 
pear; they  take  proper  plan- 
ning and  investment.  We  will 
continue  to  do  just  that  in 
order  to  make  our  city  a  safe 
and  great  place  to  live.

JOE 
FINN 


Your  Councillor  at  Large 


"CAN  YOU  TELL  IF  THEY  WORK?" 

No  one  thinks  too  much  about  fire  hydrants,  until  they  have  a  fire.  A  fire  hy- 
drant not  working  is  dangerous.  It  gives  us  a  false  sense  of  security.  Can  you 
imagine  the  Quincy  Fire  Department  responding  to  a  fire  only  to  find  out  the 
fire  hydrant  closest  to  the  fire  is  not  working? 

Councillor  at  Large  Joe  Finn  led  the  charge  to  make  sure  that  firefighters  had 
the  information  about  hydrants  that  were  out  of  service.  He  brought  the  Fire 
Department  together  with  the  Department  of  Public  Works  to  ensure  that  ev- 
eryone was  working  from  the  same  list  of  hydrants.  The  result  has  been  not 
only  the  repair  of  hydrants  across  the  city  but  also  a  new  technology  that  can 
alert  firefighters  on  their  way  to  fight  a  fire  about  down  hydrants.  That's  what 
being  a  City  Councillor  is  sometimes  about: 

• 

advocating  for  the  common  sense  thing  to  do.

Council  Honors  Men 
Who  Saved  Squantum  Boy 


City  councillors  recently 
honored  the  two  men  who 
saved  the  life  of  a  10-year- 
old  Houghs  Neck  boy  who 
was  nearly  electrocuted  in 
Squantum. 

Ward  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  presented  official 
commendations  to  Paul 
Adamson  of  Squantum  and 
Brian  A.  Smith  of  Hull  for 
their  heroic  response  to  the 
Sept.  23  emergency. 

The  boy,  Danny  Marks, 
climbed  a  tree  in  Squantum 
and  fell.  As  he  fell,  he  hit  live 
8000-volt  wires  and  his  neck 
became  stuck  in  the  crook  of 
the  tree  branches. 

Danny's  young  friends 
went  racing  about  the  area 
forhelp.  Adamson  and  Smith 
of  Hull,  responded  and 
rushed  to  the  scene  where 
Danny  was  being  strangled 
by  the  tree  branches. 

"To        prevent        his 


strangulation,  you  climbed 
into  the  tree,  then,  with 
strength  and  tremendous 
skill,  dislodged  the  child's 
neck  permitting  the  precious 
air,  vital  to  his  survival,  to 
enter  his  lungs,"  said 
McNamee  in  the 
commendation. 

"It's  great  to  have  citizens 
looking  after  other  citizens," 
said  Fire  Chief  Timothy 
Pettinelli  whose  men  at  the 
Squantum  station  responded 
to  the  emergency. 

Lt.  John  Kinsley  who 
headed  the  firefighters"  unit 
that  day  noted  that  Adamson 
used  lifesaving  techniques 
that  he'd  learned  from  his 
brother,  a  firefighter  in 
Ireland. 

Karen  Smith  said  her 
husband,  Brian,  stayed  to  see 
Danny  placed  in  an 
ambulance,  then  left  the 
scene.  As  a  result,  his  name 


was  not  included  in  early 
reports. 

"One  guy  couldn't  have 
gotten  that  boy  out  of  the 
tree,"  she  said,  adding  that, 
on  his  return  home,  her 
husband  "...was  pretty  shook 
up.  He  was  practically  in 
tears."  He  told  her,  "This 
boy's  neck  was  wedged  in 
the  tree." 

The  Smith's  two  children, 
Natalie,  13,  and  Philip,  5, 
attended  the  City  Council 
ceremony. 

Danny  spent  some  time  in 
Shriners  Burns  Institute 
where  doctors  repaired  his 
damaged  hand,  according  to 
his  grandmother.  Marguerite 
Marks  of  Squantum. 

Mrs.  Marks  said  Danny 
will  always  have  scars  like 
the  10  inch  by  three  inch  scar 
on  his  leg  but  that  he's 
resilient  and  doing  fine, 
thanks  to  Smith  and 
Adamson.

A  Personal  Letter  to  The  Citizens  of  Quincy  from 
Councilor-at-Large  Candidate  Victor  Ng 


f^' 


•m 


My  parents  emigrated  from  China  in 
1966.  I  was  the  first  child  in  my 
family  to  be  born  here  in  America. 
They  named  me  Victor  to  celebrate 
the  victory  of  having  established  our 
family  here  in  the  United  States.  My 
Chinese  luiine.  Kok  Kong,  translates 
to  "Glory  of  the  Country".  Giving 
me  a  life  in  America  meant  so  much 
to  my  parents. 


I  was  raised  in  Boston's 
Chinatown.  My  father  was  a 
cook.  My     mother     was     a 

seamstress.  My  family  worked 
very  hard  to  mitke  ends  meet,  and 
they  taught  me  to  work  hard  at  a 
young  age  too. 


Al  our  house,  \iudying  was  !o/> 
iniority.  Because  of  that.  I  was 
fortunate  etumgh  to  attend  Boston 
Latin  Sch(H>l.  I  received  a  great 
education  and  also  became 
involved  in  sports.  I  believe  my 
athletic  involvement  is  what  kept 
me  off  the  streets  and  out  of 
trouble  as  a  \outh. 


Dear  Neighbors, 

Over  the  course  of  my  campaign,  I  have  met  many 
people  and  been  asked  many  questions 

What's  your  background? 
Why  are  you  running? 
What  can  you  offer  us? 
What  are  your  issues? 

Well,  this  may  come  to  you  either  as  a  relief  or  a 
disappointment,  but  I  am  not  running  for  my  issues. 

The  real  truth  is  I've  been  given  a  great  life. 

My  parents  came  all  the  way  from  China  so  that  I 
could  be  bom  here  in  America.  And  because  of  that  I 
have  been  given  many  wonderful  opportunities  that  I 
would  not  have  had  otherwise. 

-  A  Top  Notch  Education 

-  A  Successful  Career 

-  A  Beautiful  Wife  and  Kids 

-  A  Home  to  Call  My  Own 

-  Great  Friends  and  Family 

-  And  Many  Amazing  Experiences 

The  city  of  Quincy  has  welcomed  me  with  open  arms, 
taken  me  in,  and  made  mv  American  Dream  an 
American  Reality. 

Today  many  other  Asian  families  have  come  to 
Quincy  for  the  same  reasons  my  family  came  here  20 
years  ago... 

Because  they  know  it  is  a  place  they  can  build  a  future 
for  themselves  and  their  families. 

And  that's  the  reason  we  are  all  here. 

All  types  of  families,  regardless  of  background,  all 
dream  about  the  same  things: 

1 .  A  safe  and  affordable  home  for  their  family. 

2.  Good  employment  opportunities  pro\'ided  by 
a  strong  economy. 

3.  Keeping  their  kids  .safe  and  off  the  streets. 

4.  A  strong  education  for  their  children. 

5.  Quality  time  with  their  family 

6.  A  comfortable  retirement. 

My  life  has  been  blessed  with  all  of  these  things. 

I  am  extremely  grateful  for  all  that  I  ha\  e  received 
from  this  community  and  that  is  why  1  am  rimiiinL'  tor 
City  Council. 

Plain  and  simple...  I  want  to  gi\c  something  back. 

I  want  to  put  my  skills,  knowledge,  and  experience  to 
good  use  for  our  city. 

To  ensure  that  the  man\  other  residents  ami  tutiire 
generations  of  Quincy  get  the  same  opportunities 
1  have  received. 

And  that  manv  other  families  in  Quincv  can  make 
their  American  Dream  a  reality  loo. 

I  hope  you  will  give  me  the  opportunity  to  put  my 
best  foot  forward  for  the  community.

Bragg  Would  Survey 
Teachers  For  Needs 


Jo-Ann  Bragg,  seeking  tt) 
return  to  the  School  Commit- 
tee in  next  week's  election, 
has  pn>mised  "if  elected,  I 
will  survey  every  teacher 
asking  them  .  .  .  what  they 
need  to  improve  education." 

"In  the  last  three  years, 
Quincy  has  hired  hundreds 
ol  new  teachers,"  said  Bragg, 
who  served  12  years  on  the 
School  Committee  before 
bowing  out  two  years  ago. 

"We  need  to  provide 
teachers  with  the  resources 
they  need  to  ellectively  do 
their  jobs. 

■|  would  like  to 
strengthen  the  teacher  men- 
tor progn:m,  provide  profes- 
sional development  on  class- 
room management  tech- 
nii)ues  aiul  create  teacher  re- 
source libraries  within  each 
school  building,  so  new 
teachers  can  conduct  the 
educational  research  neces- 
sary to  bring  creati\e  lesson 
plans  into  their  classn>oms. 

"1  believe  the  School 
Committee  needs  ti>  ask  the 
teachers  what  they  need  to 
impro\e  education.  If 
elected.  I  will  survey  e\ery 
teacher  asking  them  this  very 
question.  So  when  it  come 
lime  to  work  on  the  .school 
budget,  their  needs  are  taken 
into  consideration." 

During  her  previous  ten- 


ure on  the  School  Commit- 
tee. Bragg  was  known  as  a 
strong  advcKate  for  the  fami- 
lies of  Quincy  and  as  a  leader 
who  did  her  homework. 

"I  will  work  coopera- 
tively with  others  to  address 
today's  significant  issues 
such  as  building  a  new  com- 
prehensive Quincy  High, 
finding  solutions  to  the 
maintenance  needs  of  all 
schools,  particularly  Central 
and  Sterling,  and  finding 
ways  to  ensure  our  students 
are  given  every  opportunity 
to  be  the  best  they  can  be, " 
she  said. 

Bragg  said  she  is  proud  of 
her  record  of  working  to 
keep  class  sizes  small,  ex- 
panding technology,  and 
finding  funds  to  begin  the 
Literacy  Specialist  Program, 
which  is  now  in  all  elemen- 
tary schools.  She  was  also 
instrumental  in  adding  nine 
full-time  nurses  {o  every 
school  and  championed  an 
increase  in  substitute  pay.

Keenan  Campaign  Focused 
On  Neighborhoods,  Finance 


RLC  Opens  At 
Mental  Health  Center 


City  Councillor-at-Large 
John  Keenan,  a  candidate  for 
reelection,  has  cited  two 
city  wide  issues  —  neighbor- 
hood preservation  and  fi- 
nances —  that  he  has  focused 
his  attention  on  during  his 
days  on  the  Council. 

"One  of  the  things  I  high- 
hghted  when  I  first  ran  for 
the  City  Council  was  piv- 
scrving  our  neighborhoods  ■ 
he  told  a  candidates"  forum 
hosted  by  the  Ward  4  Com- 
munity Association  and  the 
Quincy  Hnvironmental  Net- 
work. 

Keenan  dialled  and  intro- 
duced the  Residence  B  Mora- 
torium,  the  measure  that 
lialtedmulii-family  develop- 
ment that  was  out  of  charac- 
ter with  the  city's  neighbor- 
hoods . 

"It  was  clear  that  multi- 
unit  developments  were  de- 
stroying the  character  of 
many  of  our  neighborhoods," 
he  said,  "and  the  moratorium 
IS  giving  us  the  opportunity 
to  prepare  reasonable  zoning 
restrictions  in  order  to  pre- 
ser\'e  our  neighborhoods." 

The  Council  also  passed  a 
Keenan-sponsored  ordinance 
that  halted  the  paving  of  en- 
tire front  yards. 

"The  unchecked  paving  of 
front  yard  was  unsightly  and 
was  causing  drainage  prob- 
lems," he  said.  "The  ordi- 
nance which  I  introduced  hm- 
its  the  amount  of  paving,  pro- 
hibits the  parking  of  vehicles 
on  lawns  and  yet  does  pro- 
vide for  off-street  parking." 

Keenan  also  sponsored 
the  resolve  that  called  for  a 
code  enforcement  officer 
who  has  focused  on  neigh- 
borhood issues. 

As  chair  of  the  Finance 
Committee  for  the  past  four 
years,  Keenan  has  been  in 
the  thick  of  the  Council' s  ef- 
forts as  a  check  on  the  city's 
finances. 

"Given  the  expense  of  the 
new  high  school,"  he  said,  "I 
negotiated  an  agreement  to 
increase  the  Stabilization 
Account  by  $4.5  million  to 
reduce  tax  increases, 

'The  pension  legislation 
which  I  drafted  and  intro- 
duced was  passed  by  the  City 
Council,  the  state  legislature 
and  was  signed  by  the  gover- 
nor. 

"According  to  the  city's 
bond  consultant,  the  program 
estabhshed  by  the  legislation 
could  save  the  city  nearly 
$80  million  over  the  next  20 
years." 

As  chair  of  the  Council's 
Special  Committee  on  En- 
ergy, Keenan  spearheaded 
passage  of  a  $32  milhon  En- 
ergy Management  Plan, 
which  provide  for  facility  and 
energy  upgrades  in  schools

"The  plan  will  be  emu-

will  seek  federal  and  state 
monies  to  complement  the

"I  beliexe  the  creation  o\

Phelan  Endorsed  By 
State  Police  Union 


The  State  Police  Associa- 
tion  of  Massachusetts 
(SPAM)  has  endorsed  Mayor 
William  Phelan  for  reelec- 
tion. 

The  association  repre- 
sents 2..3(X)  men  and  women. 

"This  is  an  honor  to  be 
recognized  for  the  work  we 
have  done  in  making  Quincy 
such  a  safe  place  to  live," 
said  Phelan. 

"Working  together  with 
our  own  police  department, 
we  have  worked  hard  to 
make  Quincy  the  second  saf- 
est city  in  the  state. 

"I  will  continue  to  pledge 
my  support  to  improving 


public  safety,  recognizing 
that  it  is  of  paramount  impor- 
tance to  a  great  community." 

Phelan  said  statistics  col- 
lected by  the  FBI  show 
Quincy  to  be  the  second  saf- 
est city  in  Massachusetts. 
Quincy  ranks  only  behind 
Newton,  the  fourth  safest 
city  in  the  United  States. 

Phelan  touted  the  im- 
provement of  regional  police 
efforts,  including  coopera- 
tion among  State  Police. 
MBTA  and  other  communi- 
ties.

vital  role  in  our  community; 
at  Wollaston  Beach,  along 
Furnace  Brook  Parkway,  and 
throughout  the  highway  sys- 
tem that  passes  through 
Quincy,"  said  Phelan. 

"They  are  a  top-notch 
professional  outfit  and  I  am 
extremely  proud  to  have 
their  endorsement."

Koch  Endorsed  By 
Firefighters,  Patrolmen 


The  city's  firefighters  and 
police  patrohnen  have  en- 
dorsed Tom  Koch's  candi- 
dacy for  mayor. 

'i'm  proud  and  humbled 
to  liave  the  support  of  our 
men  and  women  who  serve 
on  the  front  lines  of  public 
safety,"  Koch  said.  "I'm  es- 
pecially proud  because  their 
support  is  not  based  on  con- 
tract issues,  but  something 
we've  been  talking  so  much 
about  the  last  10  months: 
Leadership." 

For  the  police  union,  it  is 
the  first  lime  it  has  ever  en- 
dorsed a  candidate  for 
mayt)r,  and  Koch  said  he  be- 
lieves the  endorsement  was 
due  to  his  plans  to: 

Start  fighting  a  very  real 
drug  problem  in  our  city. 

Using  existing  resources 
to  double  the  size  of  the  drug 
unit. 

Securing  federal  and  state 
funding  for  additional  tools, 
such  as  drug-sniffing  dogs, 


restoring  partnerships  that 
once  existed  with  drug  teams 
led  by  the  DHA  and  the  xNor- 
folk  DA's  Office. 

Stop  delving  a  clear  di- 
rective frt)m  the  FBI,  which 
is  prominently  posted  on  its 
website,  nboul  using  crime 
statistics  for  political  reasons 
and  acknowledge  that  crime 
is  escalating  in  the  city. 
(Those  statistics  our  oppo- 
nent touts .'  Two  years  old) 

Increase  patrt)ls  in  the 
neighborhoods  in  part  by 
shifting  more  existing  re- 
sources to  police  work  on  the 
street. 

Providing  leadership  on 
the  turmoil  that  has  infected 
the  department.  No  more  "no 
comments"  from  the 
mayor's  office  on  the  friction 
between  command  staff  and 
patrol  officers.  "We'll  fix  the 
problems,  and  fix  morale." 

For  firefighters,  Koch 
said  he  believed  their  support 
is  based  on: 


Plans  to  make  training 
once  again  a  priority  in  the 
department.  We  cannot  force 
our  first-responders  to  face 
2r'  century  challenges  with 
20''  century  tools  and  train- 
ing. 

Restoring  our  rescue  en- 
gine to  full  ser\  ice.  And  from 
the  budget  figures  \Ae'\e 
seen,  this  can  be  diMie  within 
existing  resources. 

An  open  door,  willing- 
ness to  listen,  and  the  ability 
to  solve  problems  without 
resorting  to  personal  attacks. 

Protecting  our  students 
AND  our  firefighters  by  im- 
mediately fixing  problems 
that  have  caused  many  of  our 
school  buildings  to  chroni- 
cally fail  fire  safety  inspec- 
tions. 

Police  and  firefighters 
join  several  other  labor 
groups  who  have  endorsed 
Koch's  campaign,  including 
teachers,  the  SEIU,  and  car- 
penters.

...the  best  Quincy  mayor 


m  my  memory 


jy 


Trancis  X  "BeCCotti 


October  12,  2007 


Dear  Friend, 


As  a  taxpayer  and  voter  in  Quincy  for  more  than  fifty  years,  I  would  Uke  to 
explain  some  oi  the  reasons  why  1  am  voting  for  Mayor  William  Phelan. 

Mayor  Phelan  is  doing  an  outstanding  job.  He  is  the  best  Quincy  Mayor 
in  my  memory. 

After  inheriting  a  fiscal  situation  so  out  of  control  that  the  Stare  refused  to 
certify'  the  tax  rate.  Mayor  Phelan  went  on  to  balance  the  budget,  improve  the 
bond  ratings  and  hold  the  line  on  property  taxes.  As  a  result,  our  tax  increases  have 
been  the  lowest  oi  any  city  in  Massachusetts  for  the  past  three  years. 

As  a  former  Massachusetts  Attorney  General  for  twelve  years,  I  know  first 
hand  that  crime  and  public  safety  are  and  should  be  matters  of  paramount  concern 
to  everyone.  It  is  no  small  achievement  that  the  FBI  now  ranks  Quincy  the  second 
safest  city  in  the  State. 

Mayor  Phelan  understands  the  debt  we  owe  to  our  senior  citizens  who  built 
this  City  He  has  opened  200  units  for  seniors  at  Squantum  Gardens  and  is  plan- 
ning a  major  new  senior  center. 

Mayor  Phelan  not  only  led  the  fight  to  stop  construction  of  the  new  Quincy 
High  School  on  a  toxic  waste  site,  he  has  broken  ground  on  a  new  state-of-the-art 
high  school  to  give  our  children  the  first  class  education  they  deserve. 

He  has  paid  attention  to  our  parks  and  beaches  and  worked  hard  to  create 
more  open  space.  He  has  improved  our  schools  with  smaller  classes  and  literacy 
programs.  His  vision  for  smart  business  growth  will  mean  tax  relief  for  property 
owners  and  more  jobs  for  Quincy  residents. 

1  hope  you  will  join  me  in  voting  to  re-elect  him  on  Tuesday,  November  6th. 

Sincerely, 
Francis  X  Bellotti 


On  Tuesday  November  6 

Re-elect  Mayor  Bill  Phelan 

He  always  stands  up  for  us!

The  insiders  want  City  Hall  back.

made  Quincy  the  second  safest  city  in  the  state. 

Bill  Phelan  has  created  affordable  housing  for  seniors,  fixed  up  our

all-day  kindergarten. 

And  his  innovative  vision  for  smart  business  srov^th  at  Crown

"We  have  an  excellent 
mayor's  race  and  the  absen- 
tee ballots  are  coming  in,"  he 
says. 

"The  turnout  would  be 
higher,"  he  notes,  "but  there 
are  five  unopposed  ward 
council  .seats.  And  ward  con- 
test bring  out  voters." 

The  only  ward  contest  is 
in  Ward  6  with  incumbent 
Brian  McNamee.  52,  seeking 
a  .second  term,  opposed  by 
Jimmy  Liang,  30,  restaurant 
owner  who  has  twice  run 
before. 

In  contrast,  all  three  coun- 
cil at-large  incumbents,  Jo- 
seph G.  Finn,  52,  John  F. 
Kecnan,  43,  and  Michael  H. 
McFarland,  53,  are  running 
for  re-election.

Now.  under  the  law.  ihe

Once  the  pa\  ing  project  is

be  able  to  locale  the 
contractors,  said  Duca  and 
Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
C'oughlni. 

Coughlin  said  that  the 
contractcM  s  "have  more  deep 
pockets'"  to  remedy  such 
\iulations 

Coughlin  described  one 
homeowner  who  pii\  ed  over 
uv  o  l.u  ^'e  contiiiuoLis  lots  on 
the  property  in  his  ward  ami 
must  now  renunc  all  the

■'The  contractors  ha\e 
alreaily  left  the  scene  and  the 
homei>\\  ners  are  stuck  w  iih 
it."  said  Duca. 

Coughlin  agreed. 

"Homeowners  are  left 
holding  the  bag."  Coughlin 
acknowledged  that  the 
homev>w  ners  may  be  ignorant 
or  at  least  claim  ignorance  of 
the  law  but  that  is  no  excuse. 
The  pa\  nig  must  be  removed.

statement  from  Firefighters 
Local  7^2. 

"There  have  been  many 
issues  that  have  come  m 


front  of  the  City  Council  this 
past  year  dealing  with  pub- 
lic safety,  and  their  decisions 
and  votes  were  made  keep- 
ing in  mind  the  safety  of  the

For  those  who  may  be 
confused  about  his  campaign 
theme  to  "bring  unity  back 
to  the  community,"  Jimmy 
l.iang  has  spelled  out  the 
goal  and  vision  of  his  run  for 
City  Council  from  Ward  6. 

It  means  bringing  the 
pei>ple  oi  North  Quincy  to- 
gether around  common  inter- 
ests, regardless  of  their  age. 
race,  culture,  religion  or 
country  of  origin. 

"When  I  talk  about  unity 
m  the  community.  1  am  not 
talking  about  neighbors  sit- 
ting on  each  other's  porches 
or  in  their  back  yards  or  hav- 
ing each  other  o\  er  for  Sun- 
day dmner.  even  though  that 
would  be  nice."  said  Liang. 

"What  1  am  talking  about 


is  people  in  Ward  6  coming 
together  for  the  common 
good  —  understanding  that 
we  can  find  like  interests  and 
together  have  a  better  com- 
munity." 

"Everyone  is  affected  if 
there  is  a  natural  disaster, 
electrical  outage,  severe 
snowstorm  or  heat  wave,"  he 
continued. 

"When  there  are  fire  code 
violations  at  North  Quincy 
High  School,  it  threatens  the 
safety  of  all  the  students, 
w  hether  they  are  Asian.  Cau- 
casian or  African- American. 

"Everyone,  regardless  of 
ethnicity,  is  affected  if  there 
are  potholes,  if  roads  aren't 
plowed,  or  if  pedestrians  are 


killed. 

"If  unsupervised  teenag- 
ers with  no  place  to  go  hang 
out  on  playgrounds  harass- 
ing adults  and  other  kids,  it 
affects  everyone," 

Liang  said  if  he  is  elected

Task  Force  Discovers  26 
Illegal  Rooming  Houses 


The  Mayor's  Illegal 
Rooming  House  Task  Force, 
barely  a  year  old,  has  com- 
pleted its  150th  complaint 
inspection  and  turned  up  26 
illegal  rooming  houses. 

Inspectional  Services  Di- 
rector Jay  Duca  said  that  16 
of  the  illegals  have  been 
deconstructed,  seven  are  in 
the  process  of  being 
deconstructed  and  three  arc 
in  district  court  for  further 
action. 

Duca  said  that  during 
their  inspections  task  force 
members  also  discovered  59 
properties  with  other  code 
violations  ranging  from  ille- 


gal apartments  to  poor  main- 
tenance. 

"Illegal  rooming  houses 
can  have  a  number  of  detri- 
mental impacts  on  a  neigh- 
borhood," said  Mayor  Will- 
iam Phelan,  who  formed  the 
task  force  as  part  of  his 
"Neighborhoods  First"  cam- 
paign. 

"Additional  cars,  noise 
and  sometimes  unsafe  con- 
struction can  result.  Our  task 
force  has  done  a  good  job  in 
cleaning  up  these  problems 
to  the  betterment  of  our 
neighborhoods." 

The  task  force,  which  is 


made  up  of  members  from 
the  Police,  Fire,  Building, 
Health  and  Constituent  Ser- 
vices Departments,  found  66 
of  the  inspected  properties  in 
total  compliance  of  regula- 
tions. 

"In  addition  to  a  neigh- 
borhood problem,  we  are 
correcting  a  significant 
safety  issue  for  some  of  these 
residents,"  said  Phelan. 

"It's  also  a  matter  of  ba- 
sic fairness.  These  landlords 
are  violating  the  rights  of 
their  neighbors  and  their  ten- 
ants for  a  profit.  That's  not 
something  we  will  stand  for." 


Romanian  Film  At  Crane  Library  Nov.  15 


A  free  screening  of  the  re- 
cently released  Romanian 
film  "The  Way  1  Spent  the 
Hnd  of  the  World"  will  be

tatorship, 17-year  old  Eva 
lives  with  her  parents  and  her 
seven-year  old  brother 
Lalalilu.  One  day  at  school, 
Eva  and  her  boyfriend  acci- 
dentally break  a  bust  of 
Ceausesu.  They  are  forced  to 
confess  their  crime  before  a 
disciplinary  committee.  Eva 


is  expelled  from  school  and 
transferred  to  a  reformatory 
establishment.  There  she 
meets  Andrei  and  decides  to 
escape  Romania  with  him. 
Lalaliu  is  more  and  more 
convinced  that  Ceausescu  is 
the  main  reason  for  Eva's 
decision  to  leave.  So  with  his 
friends  from  school,  he  de- 
vises a  plan  to  kill  the  dicta- 
tor.

Mayoral  candidate  Tom 
Koch  announced  plans  Tues- 
day to  lead  an  effort  to  help 
re-open  the  Wollaston  The- 
ater as  a  private  non-profit 
community  theater  and  cul- 
tural center. 

'The  Wolly  is  truly  a  gem 
of  Quincy,  and  we're  going 
to  bring  it  back,"  Koch  said. 
"We've  talked  to  a  lot  of 
people,  and  there  is  a  real 
desire  to  get  something  go- 
ing." 

Koch  talked  about  the 
potential  of  helping  form  a 
non-profit  company  to  lead 
fundraising  efforts  and  the 
ultimate  management  of  the 
theater  He  said  he  would  put 
the  full  support  of  the 
mayor's  office,  including 
private  fundraising  efforts, 
behind  the  movement  to  save 
the  Wollaston  Theater. 

Koch  said  the  historic  the- 
ater has  a  "virtually  limit- 
less" potential  as  a  renovated 
movie-house,  community 
theater  and  potentially  a 
home  for  any  number  of  the 
city's  cultural  groups.  He 


pointed  to  examples  across 
the  country  of  classic  the- 
aters being  transformed  for 
modem  use. 

"This  is  what  Quincy  is 
all  about-bring  all  stakehold- 
ers together,  coming  up  with 
a  plan,  and  making  it  hap- 
pen," Koch  said.  "It's  going 
to  take  a  lot  of  work,  and  the 
help  of  a  lot  of  people,  but  I 
know  we  can  get  it  done.  And 
we  can  get  it  done  without 
spending  taxpayer  money." 

Koch's  announcement 
was  the  last  of  his  "Leader- 
ship Now"  programs  that  he 
has  detailed  throughout  the 
last  several  months  of  the 
campaign.  Among  previous 
"Leadership  Now"  plans, 
Koch  outlined: 

A  plan  to  ease  traffic  con- 
gestion around  the  city  by 
developing  the  first  border- 
to-border  traffic  and  parking 
plan  for  the  city  and  fixing 
computerized  traffic  signals 
around  the  city  that  have  not 
worked  properly  for  the  last 
several  years. 

A  plan  to  limit  develop- 


ment in  the  city  by  filing  leg- 
islation that  would  require 
only  one-or  two-family 
homes  in  residential  neigh- 
borhoods. A  full  overhaul  of 
the  city's  building  and  zon- 
ing rules  to  steer  long-term 
development  in  the  city. 

A  plan  to  double  the  size 
of  the  police  department's 
drug  unit  using  existing  re- 
sources, seek  federal  funding 
for  additional  tools,  and  pro- 
vide leadership  on  the  tur- 
moil infecting  the  depart- 
ment. 

A  govemment  restructur- 
ing plan  to  make  City  Hall 
more  efficient,  cost-effective 
and  responsive. 

A  new  city  wide  volunteer 
program  to  encourage  civic 
pride  among  the  city's  young 
people. 

A  new  program  to  make 
sure  residents  are  kept  in- 
formed of  major  projects  and 
other  issues  affecting  neigh- 
borhoods. 

All  of  the  plans  are  now 
available  on  Koch's  website,

Sheriff's  'Are  You  Okay?'  Program 
Helping  Seniors  Who  Live  Alone

For  the  second  time  in  a 
little  more  than  two  weeks. 
Sheriff  Michael  Bellotti's 
"Are  You  OK?"  program  has 
saved  an  elderly  woman 
from  an  uncertain  fate. 

This  time  it  was  an  83- 
year-old  Quincy  woman  who 
lived  by  herself  and  appeared 
to  need  help  quickly. 

Each  day,  "Are  You  OK?" 
operators  place  phone  calls 
to  check  on  the  well-being  of 
p>eople  who  have  signed  up 
for  the  free  program.  Most  of 
the  time,  everyone  is  fine. 

But  on  Sunday,  Oct.  7, 
when     operator     James

Carabineris  called,  he 
thought  the  elderly  lady 
sounded  distressed.  After  a 
few  seconds  of  conversation, 
he  was  sure  of  it. 

He  tried  unsuccessfully  to 
contact  a  relative  or  friend 
listed  on  her  registration 
card.  Then  he  called  Quincy 
Police,  who  called  an  ambu- 
lance. In  moments,  she  was 
being  evaluated  at  Quincy 
Medical  Center. 

Two  days  of  tests  deter- 
mined that  she  was  healthy 
enough  to  be  sent  home  with 
the  recommendation  that  she 
have  a  home  health  aid  in  to 
see  to  her  needs. 

"This  program  works  ex- 
tremely well,"  said  BelloUi, 
whose  staff  started  asking 
"Are  You  OK?"  in  2001  and 


now  has  280  seniors  partici- 
pating in  the  program  across 
Norfolk  County. 

"We  only  wish  more 
people  would  take  advantage 
of  the  added  safety  and  peace 
of  mind  it  provides.  We  es- 
pecially encourage  daughters 
or  sons  who  are  concerned 
about  a  parent  to  get  them 
involved. 

"We  have  the  capability 
to  help  so  many  more 
people." 

Since  2001,  the  Quincy 
woman  was  the  49th  to  be 
helped  by  a  phone  call  that 
started  by  asking:  "Are  You 
OK?" 

Anyone  interested  in 
signing  up  should  call  pro- 
gram coordinator  Cheryl 
Bambery  at  78 1-75 1-3504.

Retirement  Board 
Revokes  Siciliano  Pension 


(Cont'd  Fmm  Page  1) 

victed  occurred  had  a  "direct 
link"  to  his  official  position 
with  the  city.  They  are  al- 
leged to  have  happened  in 
1995  through  1998. 

"I  applaud  the  Retirement 
Board  taking  swift  action  in 
response  to  the  verdict 
against  Mr.  Siciliano,"  said 
Mayor  William  Phelan,  who 
fired  him  as  head  of  Emer- 
gency Management  in  2(X)2. 

"A  man  in  such  a  position 
of  authority  found  guilty  of 
violating  the  trust  of  children 
is  not  worthy  or  deserving  of 
a  city  pension." 

Collins,  however,  charged 
that  the  Retirement  Board 
"broadened  the  scope  of 
Siciliano's  official  capacity 
by  alleging  that  he  was  re- 
tired from  two  city  positions. 
Neither  position  has  any- 
thing to  do  with  contact  with 
civilians." 

"Because  there  was  no 
evidence  of  what  actually 
happened,  the  Board  ruled 
that  the  time  and  location  of 
the  crime  is  'inconsequen- 
tial.'" said  Collins. 

"The  Board  decided  that 
Tony  Siciliano  was  a  well-

volunteer  activity  by  a  city 


ANTHONY  SICILIANO 

employee  somehow  consti- 
tuted a  'direct  link'  between 
the  conviction  and  city  em- 
ployment." 

The  attorney  noted  that 
"the  Supreme  Judicial  Court 
has  ruled  that  the  pension 
forfeiture  statute  is  a  penal 
statute  which  is  to  be  strictly 
construed.  That  means  local 
Retirement  Boards  cannot 
broaden  the  scope  of  the  stat- 
ute to  include  volunteer  ac- 
tivity." 

George  McCray,  chair- 
man of  the  Retirement 
Board,  declined  to  comment, 
saying  he  would  wait  for  a 
transcript  of  the  revocation 
hearing  before  issuing  a 
statement.  The  hearing  was 
held  Aug.  20  and  the  deci- 
sion rendered  in  a  little  more 
than  two  months. 

Collins  said  the  Retire- 


Political  Advertisement 


ment  Board  failed  to  call  any 
witnesses  at  the  hearing  and 
"acted  before  a  transcript  of 
the  criminal  trial  was  avail- 
able. 

"There  was  no  'substan- 
tial evidence"  before  the 
Board  as  that  term  is  com- 
monly used  in  legal  proceed- 
ings. In  fact,  the  Board  relied 
on  letters  between  lawyers  in 
the  criminal  case  and  mo- 
tions in  the  criminal  ca.se." 

"Tony  Siciliano  has  30 
days  to  appeal  the  decision 
to  the  Quincy  District  Court 
and  Tony  will  do  so,"  said 
Collins. 

"Municipal  employees 
are  not  on  some  form  of  life- 
time probation  that  allows 
the  city  to  forfeit  pensions 
based  on  mere  inferences 
and  based  on  the  claim  that 
the  time  and  location  of  the 
crime  are  'inconsequential.'"

Committee  Clears  Newsrack 
Ordinance  For  Passage 


vSixofthc  14newsracksin 
front  of  the  Post  Office  in 
Quincy  Square  would  have 
to  be  removed  under  new 
regulations  approved 
Monday  by  the  Ordinance 
Committee. 

The  ordinance  proposed 
in  May  by  City  Council 
President  Douglas  Gutro  is 
scheduled  for  an  official 
council  vote  on  Dec.  3.  Under 
the  proposal,  only  eight 
newsracks  would  be  allowed 
at  any  one  location. 

In  addition,  neglected, 
rusty  or  unsightly  containers 
would  be  cited  for  removal 
and  vendors  would  be  fined 
for  litter  at  their  newsrack. 

Gutro  said  this  week  that 
the  newsrack  ordinance  fits 
in  with  other  council  actions 
this  year  to  reduce  blight, 
unsightly  and  broken 
hydrants,     and     double 


telephone  poles. 

The  rules  require  vendors 
to  apply  for  a  location  at  City 
Hall  where  they  would  pay  a 
fee  for  each  newsrack 
locaticMi  and  a  renewal  fee 
each  year.  The  vendor  sites 
would  be  available  on  a  first 
come,  first  served  basis  with 
no  regard  for  the  items" 
content. 

"There's  no  preferential 
treatment,"  said  Cjutro  of  the 
ordinance  prepared  by  City 
Solicitor  Monica 

Conyngham,  adding  the  law 
would  be  "silent  on  content." 

Jay  Duca,  director  of 
Inspectional  Services,  who 
would  issue  permits  and 
oversee  enforcement  issues 
told  councillors  that  he  did 
not  foresee  any  problems. 

Councillors  suggested 
that  the  newsracks  of 
offenders  be  marked  with 


stickers  as  soon  as  the 
violation  is  recorded. 

Gutro  noted  that 
representatives  of  the  Boston 
Globe,  Patriot  Ledger,  and 
Boston  Herald  attended  a 
September  hearing  on  the 
issue  and  had  no  objections 
to  the  ordinance. 

Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  said  that  he  wanted  job 
newsletters  available  to  the 
public  through  newsracks. 

Ward  4  Councillor  Jay 
Davis  suggested  that  Duca 
use  e-mail,  whenever 
possible,  to  immediately 
notify  vendors  of  violations. 
Davis  said  the  e-mail  could 
be  used  in  addition  to  hard 
copy  notices. 

Davis  is  chairman  of  the 
Ordinance  Committee  which 
includes  all  City  Councillors. 
Councillor  Michael 

McFarland  was  absent.

I  spoke  with  a  firefighter 
who  informed  me  that  his  oil 
burner  malfunctioned.  Ap- 
parently it  had  been  operat- 
ing incorrectly  for  sometime, 
and  eventually  a  neighbor 
informed  him  that  excessive 
black  sim>ke  was  emanating 
Irom  his  chimney. 

lie  contacted  his  oil 
hurner  technician,  who  ar- 
rived  and  surprised  the 
lirefighter.  informing  him 
that  a  portion  t»f  his  chimney 
liner  broke  off  and  dis- 
lodged, partially  bUxking 
the  chimney  Hue.  Without  a 
proper  draft,  the  oil  burner 
eventually  malfunctioned. 

Here's  a  situation  where 
a  partially  occluded  flue 
could  have  caused  carbon 
dioxide  to  seep  into  the  home 
w  hile  1  neglected  to  ask  him 
if  his  detector  activated.  He 
w  as  fcmunate  enough  to  dis- 
cover the  flue  issue  through 
the  inadequate  oil  burner  per- 
formance while  I  believe 
there's  a  lesson  here  for  all 
of  us. 

My  first  thought  is  to  rec- 
ommend that  as  this  heating 
season  approaches,  all 
homeowners  should  comply 
with  the  Nicole  Law.  That 
law  requires  a  carbon  mon- 
oxide detector  on  each  hab- 
itable level  of  your  home.  An 


unfinished  basement  docs 
not  require  one  while  a  de- 
tector is  required  on  the  first 
not)r. 

If  there  is  no  bedroom  on 
this  level,  it  can  he  installed 
anywhere,  while  if  a  bed- 
room exists.  It  must  be 
placed  with  10  feet  of  the 
bedroom  di>or.  Likewise,  if 
the  bedrooms  are  located  on 
the  second  floor,  a  detector 
must  be  placed  w  ithin  1 0  feet 
ol  those  doors  as  well.  All 
carbon  monoxide  detectors 
must  be  installed  as  per  the 
manufacturer's  instructions. 

My  seccMid  recommenda- 
tion is  that  all  oil  burners 
should  be  cleaned  and  main- 
tained at  least  once  a  year.  At 
that  time  a  technician  will 
clean  the  inner  chambers, 
turning  the  burner  as  well, 
assuring  more  efficient  per- 
formance. He  should  clean 
the  flue  pipes  while  examin- 
ing those  and  entry  into  the 
chimney  itselL  That  visual 
inspection  is  important  while 
a  subsequent  draft  test  will 
confirm  adequate  movement 
of  combustion  gases  to  the 
outside  through  the  chimney. 
It's  a  prudent  yearly  effort  to 
both  optimize  fuel  efficiency 
and  confirm  an  adequate 
flow  of  potentially  danger- 
ous combustion  gases  to  the 


outside. 

As  I  write  I'm  less  famil- 
iar with  gas  furnaces.  I  defer 
to  your  plumber  or  one  of  our 
local  plumbing  inspectors  for 
recoinmendatums  concern- 
ing their  maintenance.  As 
with  an  oil  burner  however, 
1  can  recommend  an  occa- 
sional inspection  of  the  inte- 
rior of  the  entire  chimney  to 
eliminate  a  concern  about 
blockages  and  to  determine 
the  integrity  of  the  chimney 
liner  This  is  especially  im- 
portant if  flreplaces  arc  fre- 
quently used,  or  if  a  coal  or 
wood  st(.ve  is  vented  through 
that  chimney  as  well. 

An  intact  flue  liner  can 
assure  that  heat,  sparks  and 
combustion  gases  remain 
within  the  chimney  to  be  ex- 
hausted through  the  top  into 
the  outer  environment. 
Cleaning  a  chimney  flue  can 
eliminate  a  blockage,  includ- 
ing the  removal  of  creosote, 
a  tarry  by-product  of  burn- 
ing wood,  which  is  combus- 
tible, while  an  excessive  ac- 
cumulation can  occlude  a 
flue  as  well. 

This  is  a  perfect  time  to 
allay  your  concerns  and  be 
proactive  regarding  furnace 
and  chimney  maintenance. 
Do  so  and  have  a  safe  and 
secure  heating  season.

City  Applies  For 

$936,000  Grant 

For  Quarry  Hills  Drive 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

The  city  recently  applied 
for  a  $936,000  economic 
development  grant  from  the 
state  for  improvements  to 
Quarry  Hills  Drive  and  a 
study  of  Lyons  Turning  Mill, 
according  to  Planning 
Director  Dennis  Harrington. 

Harrington  said  the 
application  signed  by  Mayor 
William  Phelan  and  approved 
by  the  City  Council  was  filed 
under  the  state's  PWED  or 
Public  Works  Economic 
Development  program. 

If  approved,  the  nearly 
million  dollar  grant  will  cover 
road  and  lighting 
improvements  to  Quarry 
Hills  Drive  which  was 
accepted  as  a  public  road  last 
May. 

The  PWED  application 
also  includes  a  request  to 
'allocate  $52,000  for  a  study 
of  the  needed  improvements 
for  Lyons  Turning  Mill 
which  is,  also,  located  on 
Quarry  Hills  Drive. 

At  the  top  of  Quarry  Hills 
Drive,  construction  is 
expected  to  begin  on  a  new 
Marian  Manor  nursing 
facility  operated  by  the 
Carmelite  ^Sisters  for  the 
Aged  and  Infirm.  The  nursing 
home,  currently  the  largest 


in  the  state,  will  move  from 
its  current  location  in  South 
Boston. 

The  $85  million  Marian 
Manor  project  is  expected  to 
provide  over  200  nursing 
beds  and  two  dozen  studio 
apartments  for  assisted  living 
dementia  patients.  In 
addition,  the  complex  will 
include  165  independent 
units. 

It  is  this  facility  and  Lyons 
Turning  Mill  which  should 
qualify  the  roadway  for  an 
economic  development 
grant,  according  to 
Harrington. 

Harrington  said  that 
"hundreds  of  people  will  be 
involved  in  nursing  and 
service"  jobs  at  the  Marian 
Manor  facility.  In  addition, 
the  apartments  will  provide 
tax  benefits  for  the  city. 

And  Lyons  Turning  Mills 
could  become  a  major  tourist 
attraction  for  the  city  once  it 
is  properly  strengthened, 
lighted  and  fenced. 

Harrington  said  there  have 
been  many  studies  of  the 
Turning  Mill  over  the  years 
and  this  grant  should  allow 
the  city  to  collate  those 
studies. 

The  Turning  Mill  is  the 
last  building  standing  from

the  city's  past  as  a  leader  in 
the  granite  industry, 
according  to  former  Mayor 
Walter  Hannon  who  sought 
approval  of  Quarry  Hills 
Drive  as  a  public  road  last 
May. 

Hannon  is  currently  Vice 
president  of  Granite  Links 
Golf  Club  at  Quarry  Hills. 

At  the  Turning  Mill,  the 
granite  columns  were 
perfected,  rounded,  and 
shined  for  the  New  York 
Stock  Exchange  building  and 
many  of  the  massive  granite 
columns  that  adorn 
courthouses  and  custom 
houses  in  Boston,  Savannah, 
New  Orleans  and  San 
Francisco. 

"Everybody  talks  about  it 
and  nobody  does  anything," 
Hannon  said  of 

improvements  to  Turning 
Mill  which  he  compared  to 
the  Greek  AcropoUs. 

Quincy  attorney  Robert 
Fleming  last  Spring 
described  the  Turning  Mill 
building  as  "Quincy's 
Stonehenge"  while  Ward  1 
Councillor  Leo  Kelly  once 
likened  it  to  a  "Cathedral  in 
the  Wild." 

"If  one  of  those  walls  falls 
down,  it's  gone,"  Hannon 
said  last  week. 

Lyons  Turning  Mill  is  on 
the  National  Historic 
Register  but  does  "need  to  be 
structurally  safe  and 
accessible."  said  Harnngton 

State  approval  of  P\\  ED 
grants  generally  take  IS 
months.

Five  Tips  To  Prepare  For  A 
Home-Improvement  Project 


(NAPS)  -  While 
remodeling  can  be  a 
rewarding  way  to  improve 
your  home  value  and 
hfestyle,  many  people  are  not 
sure  where  to  start.  The 
lollowmt:  five  steps  can  help

space  on  eraph  paperor  make 
a  "to  do"  list  that  includes 
elements  to  he  ino\ed  or 
changed. 

2.  K.stahlish  Your 
Budget:  Consider  which 
prixluct.s  you'd  like  to  use 
and  do  some  preliminary 
research  on  price  and 
a\ailability  so  you"re  no 


envisioning  models  out  of 
line  with  your  financial 
resources.  Decide  how  much 
you  can  spend.  Include  at 
least  a  10  percent 
ct)ntingency  fund  lor 
unforeseen  expenses. 

3.  A.ssemble  Vour

plenty  of  time  spent  in  the 
planning  phase.  In  fact,  the 
most  successful  homeowners 
spend  as  much  time  planning 
their  projects  as  they  do 
directing  the  actual  work. 

Careful  preparation  can 
facilitate  a  smooth,  last 
project.  Begin  by  thinking 
about  how  you  really  want  to 
change  your  home.  \ ou 
probably  already  have  an 
idea,  but  novvs  the  time  to 
line-tune  your  ideas. 

Think  about  how  )our 
home  alieadx  supports  tiie 
way  you  live  and  which 
existing  elements  yiui  really 
like  (gorgeous  architectural 
details,  for  instance,  or  a 
wide-open  floor  plan).  This 
will  not  only  help  you 
prioritize  which  projects  to 
take  on  first,  it  will  also  help 
you  better  define  the  details 
of  each  step  and  help  you 
match  them  to  your  budget 
and  your  timeline. 

5.  Take  Your  Time: 
There '  s  no  reason  to  rush  into 
a  home-improvement 
project.  Your  home  is 
probably  your  biggest 
investment  and  probably 
where  your  family  lives.  Start 
slowly  and  move 
deliberately. 

Once  you  have  your  list 
of  goals,  take  a  break.  Come 
back  to  the  list  in  a  week  or 
so.  Evaluate  it  to  see  if  your 
ideas  have  changed. 

If  not,  you're  ready  to 
move  on  with  confidence.

Energy  Matters 

Getting  Smart  About  Energy  Bills 


(NAPS)  -  Despite 
growing  concerns  over  rising 
energy  costs,  a  lightbulb 
hasn"!  exactly  gone  off  in 
consumers'  heads  when  it 
comes  to  understanding  what 
their  potentially  less 
expensive  options  are. 

And  we're  not  just  talking 
unplugging  electronic 
equipment  when  it  is  not  in 
use. 

■According  to  a  new  poll,  a 
"Ahopping  90  percent  ot 
consumers  felt  the\'  had 
"limhed  or  no  control"  iner 
then- home  energy  bills.  That, 
of  course.  Hies  in  the  face  of 
years  of  deregulation  by  state 
governments  across  the 
country  that  was  specifically 
intended  to  empower 
consumers.  The  idea  being, 
by  forcing  the  traditional 


monopolies  to  suddenly 
compete  with  other  utility 
companies-as  is  now  the  case 
in  states  such  as  New  York, 
Michigan  and  Texas- 
consumers  could  seek  out  the 
best  deals  for  themselves. 

Alas,  most  of  those  polled 
had  never  heard  of 
deregulation. 

.And  given  the  "extreme 
volatility"  in  energy  prices 
that  those  like  Jeff  Mayer, 
president  and  chief  executive 
.>fficerofMxenergy.  predicts 
IS  "'likely  to  continue.""  such 
anfamiliarity  is  likely  to  keep 
costing  consumers.  "It's 
important  that  people 
understand  the  steps  they  can 
take  to  keep  costs  under 
control,"  says  Mayer,  whose 
company  provides 

deregulated  energy.

Here  are  some  tips  for 
deciding  which  energy 
provider  is  right  for  you: 

Fixed  of  Floating?:  The 
big  question  is  whether  to 
lock  in  a  fixed  rate  or  choose 
one  that  floats  with  the 
market.  Keep  in  mind  that 
variable  rates-just  like 
variable-rate  mortgages-rise 
and  fall  and  dont  provide 
price  protection.  But  they  do 
let  you  take  advantage  of 
lower  rates  in  a  declining 
market. 

Locking  in  Prices:  The 
duration  ot  a  fixed  price 
protection  is  between  one  and 
three  years.  If  you  think  prices 
may  drop  in  the  near  future. 
choo.se  a  shorter  term.  If  you 
think  they'll  continue 
climbing,  go  with  a  longer 
term. 

Consider  The  Source: 
Price  is  important,  but  so  is 
reputation.  Locking  in  a  fixed 
rate  with  a  supplier  that  goes 
bankrupt  only  means  trouble. 
So  before  signing  up  for  a 
plan,  check  its  balance  sheet, 
access  to  financial  capital  and 
risk-management  process 
that  helps  ensure  it  will  be 
around  to  back  up  its 
advertised  low,  long-term 
rates. 

How  much  of  an  impact 
are  higherenergy  bills  having 
on  consumers?  More  than 
one-third  reported  they'd  cut 
back  on  spending  in  other 
areas  to  offset  the  cost, 
according  to  the  poll,  which 
was  conducted  by  Impulse 
Research.

Too  Much 
Strength  Training 

,  My  workout  part- 
.  ner  has  us  doing 
body  strength  train- 
ing every  session.  We  work 
out  five  days  a  week  for 
about  an  hour,  each  split- 
ting the  time  between  car- 
diovascular exercise  and 
strength  training.  Since 
we  began  this  program  I 
have  seen  some  results,  but 
I  have  not  stopped  being 
sore.  Is  this  normal,  or 
should  we  change  our 
workouts? 

A, Designing  a  workout 
•  that  will  show  results 
while  keeping  you  safe  in 
the  long  run  can  be  chal- 
lenging. The  first  point  to 
remember  is  that  "more  is 
not  always  better."  TTie 
desire  to  see  results  can 
moti\ate  us  to  lr>  to  do  as 
much  exercise  as  possible  in 
hopes  that  we  can  reach  our 
goals  more  quickly. 
Remaining  sore  after  each 
workout  is  a  sign  that  your 
workout  needs  more  recov- 
ery time  and  modification. 

It  is  great  that  you  and 
your  workout  partner  have 
made  the  time  to  exercise 
five  days  a  week.  I  would 
encourage  you  to  continue 
to  make  that  time  available; 
however,  I  would  suggest 
using  it  in  a  different  man- 
ner. 

Your  body  needs  time  to 
recover  so  that  it  will  be 
ready  for  the  following 
day's  workout.  Staying  sore 
day  after  day  could  limit 
your  body's  ability  to  work 
as  effectively  and  efficiently 
as  it  could  during  the  next 
workout  —  and  actually 
keep  you  from  reaching 
your  goals  over  time. 

Try  completing  your 
strength-training     workout 


/,.«-{X,^.V,-:S,.. 


three  days  a  week,  along 
with  cardiova.scular  exer- 
cise for  30  minutes  within 
that  hour.  Be  sure  to  design 
your  strength-training 

workouts  appropnatcly,  so 
the  weight  is  not  too  heavy. 
Remember  that  you  should 
be  able  to  lift  the  weight  you 
choose  with  proper  tech- 
nique. Having  to  lose  your 
technique  would  suggest  the 
weight  is  too  heavy. 

On  the  other  two  days  of 
the  week  that  you  work  out, 
I  would  recommend  using 
cardiova.scular  and  flexibili- 
ty training.  Try  cross-train- 
ing,  where   you  use  more 
than  one  form  of  cardiovas- 
cular training,  such  as  walk- 
ing/jogging, cycling, 
rollerblading,  etc.  Also  con- 
sider     interval       training, 
which  involves  alternating 
between    easier   to    harder 
intensities  throughout  your 
cardiovascular        workout. 
Use  caution  not  to  rai.se  your 
heart  rate  so  high  that  you 
do  not  see  a  considerable 
amount    of    recovery    one 
minute  after  the  exercise  is 
complete. 

Alternating  your  strength 
and  cardiovascular  workout 
days  should  help  your  body 
recover  from  soreness  and 
help  you  continue  to  sec 
results. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

Create  A  Home  Fitness  Plan  That  Works 


(NU)  -  According  to  The 
President's  Council  on 
Physical  Fitness,  adults  need 
at  least  .^0  minutes  of  physical 
activity  five  or  more  days  a 
week.  However,  only  30 
percent  get  the  recommended 
amount. 

Work,  family  and  never- 
ending  to-do  lists  can  make 
finding  time  to  hit  the  gym  an 
understandable  challenge,  if 
the  gym  isn't  for  you,  or  if 
your  .schedule  makes  getting 
there  a  challenge,  try  working 
out  at  home.  Cardiovascular, 
strength  and  llexibility 
training  are  the  key 
components  of  any 
successful  workout  regimen, 
and  v\  iih  a  few  simple  items, 
you  can  binkl  an  effective 


home  exercise  program  that 
incorporates  each. 

Cardio:  Cardiovascular 
workouts  fuel  weight  loss, 
strengthen  the  heart,  reduce 
stress  and  increase  energy. 

For  a  low-impact 
cardiovascular  workout,  try 
the  Spinner  Sport 
(www.spinning.com),  an  in- 
home  bike  that  can  help  you 
bum  as  many  as  500  calories 
in  40  minutes.  The  Spinning 
program  makes  riding  a 
stationary  bike  more  fun  and 
effective  than  mindless 
pedaling  by  incorporating 
changes  in  resistance  and 
alternating  between  seated 
and  standmg  pt)sitions.  Bike.s 
include  lor  DVDs  that  offer 
motivation  and  instruction. 


Strength:  Resistance 
training  strengthens  and 
tones  the  muscles  and  can 
increase  metabolism. 
Flexible  tubing 

( www.power-systems.com) 
is  a  portable,  relatively 
inexpensive  option  for 
strength  training  that  can  be 
used  in  place  of  weights  and 
is  available  in  various  degrees 
of  resistance  to  serve  all 
fitness  levels. 

Flexibility:  Proper 
stretching  builds  flexibility 
while  reducing  muscle 
tension,  expanding  range  of 
motion.  increasing 

circulation  and  lowering  the 
risk  of  injury. 

Stretching  should  be 
performed  at  the  end  of  a 


workout  when  the  muscles 
are  warm.  Stretching  on  a 
yoga  mat 

(www.huggermugger.com) 
can  help  improve  balance, 
coordination  and  comfort.  A 
yoga  strap  can  make  touching 
your  toes  a  little  easier  and 
allows  for  a  deeper  stretch. 
The  most  effective 
workout  is  one  you  can  stick 
with,  so  develop  a  plan  you 
can  commit  to.  Talk  to  your 
doctor  before  beginning  any 
exercise  routine.  For  more 
workout  tips  and  tools  that

Have  Your  Coffee  and  Drink  It,  Too 


(NU)  -  For  most  people, 
it's  simply  a  part  of  their 
morning  routine.  For  others, 
its  a  social  commodity,  but 
regardless  of  its  use,  coffee 
is  a  major  staple  in  the 
American  diet.  In  fact, 
approximately  130  million 
Americans  drink  an  average 
of  two  to  three  cups  of  coffee 
a  day. 

Many  health  professionals 
agree  it's  not  necessarily  a 
bad  thing,  especially  if  you 
go  for  the  decaffeinated 
variety.  Antioxidants,  for 
example,  abound  in  coffee, 
which  can  reduce 
inflammation  and  prevent 
chronic  diseases.  However, 
what  about  the  pesky  short- 
term  effects  of  coffee,  such 
as  stomach  pain  and 
heartburn? 

Coffee  drinkers, 

especially  those  prone  to 
stomach  pain  and  heartburn, 
can  feel  the  bum  after  their 
daily  coffee  intake.  The 
cause-coffee's  acid  levels. 
That's  right,  most  coffees 


contain  acid,  which  can 
damage  the  lining  of  your 
stomach  and  result  in 
unpleasant  side  effects  such 
as  acid  reflux.  Giving  up 
coffee  is  out  of  the  question 
for  most  people,  so  antacids 
have  become  a  popular  ally. 

More  than  60  million 
Americans  experience 
heartburn  at  least  once  a 
month,  and  many  rely  on  the 
neutralizing  effects  of 
antacids  on  a  regular  basis; 
however,  this  can  be  a 
concem  in  the  long-term. 

Antacids  affect  the 
balance  of  acid  in  your 
stomach  by  reducing  it. 
Howev  er,  natural  acids  found 
in  your  stomach  arc  necessary 
in  the  prevention  of  illness. 
These  acids  kill  bacteria  as 
they  try  to  enter  the  body 
through  the  digestive  track. 
Long-term  use  of  these 
products  may  negatively 
affect  this  balance. 

So,  what  should  those 
coffee  drinkers  who  take  a 
side  of  antacid  with  their 


coffee  do?  Acid-free  coffee 
may  be  your  best  solution. 
Coffee  companies  such  as 
Tyler's  Coffee  provide  both 
caffeinated  and  decaffeinated 
blends  of  acid-free  coffee. 
These  acid-free  blends  are 
roasted  through  a  computer- 
based  process,  which 
eliminates  the  acid. 

And  aside  from  a  settled 
stomach,  acid-free  coffee 


promotes  dental  health.  "The 
worst  thing  anyone  can  do  is 
sip  beverages  with  a  high  acid 
level,"  said  Dr.  Richard 
Ziehmer.  "A  coffee  beverage 
that  is  free  of  acid,  sugar  or 
non-dairy  creamer  could 
decrease  a  person's  risk  of 
developing  cavities." 

Now  coffee  drinkers  can 
have  their  coffee  and  drink 
it,  too.

The  diabetes  epidemic 
has  no  bounds  -  even  here  in 
Massachusetts.  Children,  co- 
workers, caregivers,  minori- 
ties, and  the  elderly  are  some 
of  the  many  faces  of  diabe- 
tes in  our  community. 

Could  you  be  one  of  these 
faces? 

Nearly  21  million  chil- 
dren and  adults  in  the  United 
States  have  diabetes  and  an- 
other 54  million  Americans 
have  pre-diabetes,  which 
puts  them  at  serious  risk  for 
developing  type  2  diabetes. 
It  is  a  leading  cause  of  heart 
disease,  stroke,  kidney  dis- 
ease, blindness,  and  lower 
limb  amputation.  Unfortu- 
nately, many  people  are  un- 
aware they  have  diabetes  or 
are  at  risk  for  developing  the 
disease.  The  burden  of  dia- 
betes in  Massachusetts  is  ex- 
tensive; nearly  320,000  chil- 
dren and  adults  in  Massachu- 
setts are  living  with  diabetes 
and  waiting  for  a  cure. 

What  can  the  people  of 
Massachusetts  do  to  help 
stop  diabetes  in  its  tracks?

Presidents  Snap  Losing  Streak,  Sail  Past  Nauset 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  Quincy  Presidents 
took  little  time  setting  the 
tone  in  their  game  against 
Nauset  High  School  last 
Friday  night  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium. 

Looking  to  snap  a  four 
game  losing  streak,  Quincy 
called  a  trick  play  on  their 
first  play  from  scrimmage,  a 
halfback  toss  from  junior 
Mark  Giibody  to  junior  Zack 
Manning  that  resulted  in  a  22 
yard  gain  that  helped  get  the 
momentum,  moving  in  the 
right  direction. 

Senior  running  back 
Diego  Arredondo  ( 1 8  carries, 
1 1 1  yards,  four  touchdowns) 
capped  off  the  opening 
scoring  drive  with  a  one-yard 
touchdown  run  and  Quincy 
was  off  and  running. 
Arredondo' s  successful  PAT 
gave  Quincy  the  early  7-0 
lead. 

The  35-21  win  upped 
Quincy 's  overall  record  to  2- 
5  overall,  and  2-4  in  the 
Atlantic  Coast  League. 

After  the  opening  scoring 
drive,  Nauset  went  four  and 
out  on  the  ensuing 
|X)S!^ession,  and  when  Quincy 
got  the  ball  back,  Arredondo 
and  sophomore  quarterback 
Lance  Peterson  took  over. 

On  first  and  10  from  their 
own  25-yard  line,  Arredondo 
went  for  12,  10  and  eight 
yards  on  the  next  three  carries 
before  Max  Devoe  ran  for 
four  yards  to  set  up  a  first  and 
ten  from  the  Nauset  44-yard 
line.  Facing  a  second  down 
and  10,  Peterson  faked  the 
handoff,  rolled  left  and  found 


a  wide-open  Anthony 
Raddatz  streaking  down  the 
sidelines  for  a  40-yard 
touchdown.  Arredondo's 
PAT  was  good  and  Quincy 
had  a  1 4-0  lead  with  7: 29  left 
in  the  second  quarter. 

Nauset' s  next  drive  started 
at  its  own  24-yard  line,  but 
after  taking  the  ball  down  to 
the  Quincy  33-yard  line,  a 
holding  penalty  brought  the 
ball  back  to  the  Quincy  42. 
After  two  straight  dropped 
passes,  a  sack  on  fourth  down 
gave  the  ball  back  to  the 
Presidents.  And  then  it  was 
Arredondo  time  once  again. 

On  third  and  18, 
Arredondo  caught  a  swing 
pass  from  Peterson  and  broke 
through  for  a  52-yard  gain 
down  to  the  two-yard  line. 
On  first  and  goal,  Arredondo 
scored  his  second  rushing  TD 
of  the  game  to  give  the 
Presidents  a  20-0  second 
quarter  lead. 

Nauset  had  a  chance  to 
cut  into  the  20-0  deficit  near 
the  end  of  the  half,  but  with 
2 1  seconds  remaining  and  the 
ball  in  Quincy  territory. 
Manning  recovered  a  botched 
snap  to  quell  the  threat.  At 
the  break,  Quincy  held  a 
commanding  20-0  lead. 

Quincy  took  the  second 
half  kickoff  back  to  its  31- 
yard  line  and  went  back  to 
the  well  known  as 
Arredondo.  Arredondo  ran 
for  22  yards  on  the  first  play 
of  the  second  half  to  set  up  a 
first  and  ten  from  the  Nauset 
48,  but  two  illegal  procedure 
penalties  pushed  Quincy 
back  to  their  own  41. 

On  second  and  14  from 


their  own  48,  Peterson  used 
play  action  to  freeze  the 
defensive  backfield  and 
found  John  Gray  wide-open 
for  a  50  yard  gain.  With  8:40 
left  in  the  third,  Arredondo 
scored  for  the  third  time  from 
two  yards  out  to  up  the  score 
to  28-7. 

The  visitors  would  make 
things  interesting  during  the 
last  15  minutes  of  play. 
Nauset  scored  on  a  QB  sneak 
to  run  the  score  to  28-7  with 
1 :52  left  in  the  third  and  then 
executed  a  perfect  onside 
kick  that  was  recovered  at 
the  Quincy  42-yard  line. 
Seven  plays  later  they  scored 
on  a  14-yard  touchdown  run 
to  cut  the  lead  to  28- 14. 

But  Quincy  and 
Arredondo  would  shut  the 
door  on  any  thoughts  of  a 
Nauset  comeback  with  a  10- 
play  scoring  drive  with  the 
exclamation  point  being 
Arredondo's  fourth 

touchdown  of  the  game,  an 
eleven  yard  run. 

Nauset  scored  late  on  a 
49-yard  TD  pass  to  put  the 
score  at  35-2 1 ,  and  recovered 
the  onside  kick  by  time  ran 
out  and  Quincy  earned  their 
second  win  of  the  season. 

"Diego  played  great  and  1 
thought  Lance  did  very  well 
for  a  sophomore,"  head  coach 
Bob  Noble  said.  "We  went  to 
the  no-huddle  (early)  to 
disrupt  their  timing  and  it 
worked.  Although  we  did 
everything  we  could  to  give 
it  away  in  the  second  half." 

Quincy  will  play  on  the 
road  this  Friday  at  Plymouth 
South.  Kick  off  is  scheduled 
for  7  p.m. 


North  Quincy  Captures 
Third  Straight  League  Title 


Last  Wednesday  in  an  epic 
showdown  that  decided  the 
Atlantic  Coast  League 
regularseason  champion,  the 
North  Quincy  Red  Raiders 
defeated  the  Quincy 
Presidents  three  games  to 
none  (26-24,  25-23,  25-22) 
to  capture  their  third  straight 
girls'  volleyball  league  title. 

North  Quincy,  who  beat 
Quincy  in  their  first  go  around 
this  fall,  finished  the  year  with 
an  undefeated  league  record 
marking  the  third  consecutive 
year  that  the  team  has  gone 
undefeated  in  league  play. 
For  the  year,  the  Raiders  had 
a  17-2  overall  record  and  a 
sterling  12-0  record  in  ACL 
play. 

All  three  games  were 
highly  competitive,  and  in 
all  three  games,  the  final 
outcome  was  not  decided 
until  the  very  end.  In  Game 
1 ,  the  teams  were  tied  a  24- 
all  until  senior  Virginia  Wong 
delivered  a  big  kill  to  break 
the  stalemate  and  earn  North 
the  win. 

Games  2  and  3  both  saw 
the  two  teams  tied  late  into 
the  game.  North  Quincy 
senior  captain  Becca  Stanton 
debvered  a  kill  in  the  second 
game  to  snap  a  23-all  tie,  and 
Stanton  did  the  same  thing  in 


GIRLS'  VOLLEYBALL 


Game  3  to  break  a  22-all  tie 
and  lift  the  Red  Raiders  to 
the  3-0  match  win. 

"I'm  was  surprised  that  it 
was  over  in  three  because 
they  (Quincy)  played  so 
well,"  North  Quincy  coach 
Kerry  Ginty  said.  "We  knew 
it  was  going  to  be  a  good 
match  and  a  battle." 

With  their  team  down  two 
games  to  nil,  Quincy  seniors 
Liz  Bock  and  Meagan  Tobin 
combined  for  four  straight 
kills  in  the  third  game  to  turn 
a  12-11  deficit  into  a  15-13 
lead,  but  Stanton  drove  a  kill 
over  the  net  later  in  the  game 
to  tie  the  score  at  17-all  and 
senior  Rebecca  Goreham 
connected  for  another  kill  to 
give  the  Raiders  the  19-18 
lead.  And  North  Quincy  was 
on  their  way  to  another  league 
title. 

"It  was  just  back  and  forth 
and  it  could  have  gone  either 
way,"  Quincy  coach  Jacqui 
Niosi  said.  "Any  point  could 
have  been  different  and  the 
outcome  could  have  been 
different.  They  played  tough 
defense,  played  scrappy 
defense  and  I  think  that  gave 
them  the  extra  points." 


Playing  well  for  the  Red 
Raiders  were  Kathleen 
Lynch.  Julie  Lynch,  Jess 
Ainsley  and  Rushri 
Wijesundera  and  it  was  the 
team's  depth  and  experience 
that  carried  them  to  another 
ACL  title. 

"We  are  deep  and  we're 
well  rounded."  said  Ginty. 
"Everybody  has  a  couple  of 
things  they  excel  in." 

Both  North  and  Quincy 
are  gearing  up  for  a  post 
season  run,  and  when  the 
pairings  come  out  later  this 
week,  both  of  the  city  schools 
should  be  high  seeds.

night  during  the  Presidents  35-21  victory  at  Veterans  Memorial  Stadium.  Arredondo  finished 
the  game  with  111  yards  rushing  and  four  touchdowns.  Quincy  Sun  photo/Robert  Noble

North  Quincy  Point  Shy 
Of  Tournament  Berth 


By  the  time  this  paper  is 
released  to  the  newsstands, 
the  North  Quincy  Red  Raider 
girls'  soccer  team  will  know 
if  they  will  be  playing  in  their 
1 1  th  straight  post  season  or 
if  they  will  be  getting  ready 
for  the  winter  sports  season. 

With  a  7-7-4  overall 
record,  the  Red  Raiders  have 
1 8  points  (they  need  1 9)  and 
are  one  point  away  from 
clinching  that  elusive 
tournament  spot. 

North  took  care  of 
business  last  Saturday  against 
Quincy  High  School  on  a  wet 
and  rainy  night  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium  6-0.  That 
set  up  a  win  or  go  home 
regular  season  finale  against 
Dennis-Yarmouth  High 
School  which  was  played  on 
Tuesday.  If  the  Raiders  uin 
or  lie  against  the  Dolphins, 
they  will  more  than  likely  be 
playing  in  a  preliminary 
round  game  this  weekend. 
And  if  not,  their  season  is 
over. 

Against  city  rival  Quincy, 
North  Quincy  got  on  the 
board  early  and  often.  Senior 
captain  Kerry  Coughiin  took 
a  sweet  pass  from  senior 
Kasey  O'Connell  and  buried 
a  left  footed  blast  into  the 
bottom  corner  to  put  the 
Raiders  up  1-0. 

Just  fifteen  minutes  later, 
junior  midfielder  Lindsay 
Reilly  scored  her  third  goal 
of  the  season  to  run  the  score 


GIRLS' SOCCER 


to  2-0.  And  with  a  little  under 
twenty  seconds  remaining  in 
the  opening  half,  senior 
captain  Emily  Milone's 
comer  kick  defiected  off  of  a 
Quincy  player  and  into  the 
back  of  the  net  for  the  3-0 
lead  at  the  break.  The  goal 
was  Milone's  thirteenth  of 
the  season. 

"We  came  out  and  played 
a  real  good  game,"  head 
coach  Paul  Bregoli  said.  "The 
weather  conditions  were 
horrible  and  wet,  but  the  team 
scored  early  and  it  allowed 
me  to  get  my  entire  rosier 
into  the  game.  Luckily,  the 
new  turf  at  the  sladium  does 
not  puddle  so  we  were  wet 
bul  the  playing  field  was  nol 
atfeclcd." 

The  Raiders  came 
storming  out  of  the  locker 
room  to  start  the  second  half 
and  quickly  added  to  their 
lead  on  a  beautiful  header 
from  sophomore  forward 
Cara  Murtagh.  The  goal  was 
Murtagh"s  first  of  the  year 
and  it  gave  North  a  4-0  lead. 
O'Connell  picked  up  her 
second  stellar  assist  of  the 
game  on  the  goal. 

"Murtagh' s  goal  was  a 
thing  of  beauty,"  Bregoli 
added,  "hut  it  was  the  cross 
field  pass  from  O'Connell 
that  set  it  all  up.  It  was  a  play 
that  we  had  been  working  on 


in  practice  this  past  week  and 
it  paid  off  against  Quincy." 

With  just  over  two 
minutes  remaining  in  the 
contest,  Bregoli  put  his  senior 
class  back  onto  the  field  and 
they  responded  with  two 
goals  in  the  closing  minutes 
of  play.  Milone  scored  her 
tourteenlh  i>f  the  year  off  a 
pass  from  Rei  Jly  to  make  it  5- 
0  and  Mary  Kate  Stille 
capped  off  the  scoring  with 
her  eighth  goal  of  the  year  as 
time  wound  down. 

"1  put  my  seniors  back  out 
there  and  what  do  you  know, 
they  came  through  with  the 
final  two  goals."  said  Brogi>li. 
"It  was  a  good  way  to  end  the 
game." 

Playing  well  for  .North 
were  seniors  l:Ilen  Qiiinn, 
Roxanne  Lydon,  Lauryn 
Maclssac  and  Simone  Leary. 
Quincy  junior  Julie  Leone 
stood  out  for  the  Presidents. 

The  Red  Raiders  had  two 
players  named,  as  Atlantic 
Coast  League  all-stars  by  the 
league's  other  coaches. 
Emily  Mi  lone  and  Mary  Kate 
Stille  were  selected  toplay  in 
the  all-star  game,  which  was 
held  hist  Sunday.  Senior 
defender  Simone  Leary 
earned  an  lionorable  mention 
selection.

North  Quincy  Edges  Quincy,  2-1 


The  North  Quincy  boys' 
soccer  team  defeated  Quincy 
High  School  2- 1  last  Saturday 
night  in  the  driving  rain  at 
Veterans  Memorial  Stadium. 
With  the  win.  North's  second 
this  fall  over  its  cross-city 
rival;  the  Red  Raiders  ran 
their  record  to  5-10-2  with 
one  game  remaining  on  their 
schedule. 

Seniors  Dan  Richards  and 


John  Cicciariello  scored  the 
goals.  Junior  forward  Shane 
Regan  assisted  on  both  of  the 
goals. 

"We  have  had  a  good 
year,"  head  coach  Rich 
Hanlon  said.  "Earlier  in  the 
year  we  had  so  many  of  our 
starters  go  down  with  injuries 
and  that  killed  us.  But,  even 
though  that  was  a  key  factor 
this  year,  we  still  are  going  to 


BOYS'  SOCCER 


finish  this  season  with  the 
most  wins  in  the  past  five 
years.  So,  as  far  as  that  goes 
it  was  a  successful  season 
and  hopefully  it  will  lead  to  a 
promising  year  next  fall." 

Playing  well  against 
Quincy  were  seniors  Sean 
Clifford  and  Kwasi  Osei  and 


sophomore  goalkeeper  Ryan 
Louis  (X  saves). 

The  Red  Raiders  had  four 
players  nai  ned  to  the  Atlantic 
Coast  League  all-star  team. 
They  are  Shane  Regan  (also 
named  to  the  EMass  all-star 
team),  Sean  Clifford,  Ryan 
Keaney  and  Dan  Richards.

Red  Raiders'  Record  Even  After  Loss  To  Marshfield 


North  Quincy  hung  close 
with  Marshfield  High 
School-the  eighth  ranked 
team  in  eastern 

Massachusetts-through  three 
quarters  last  Saturday 
afternoon  at  Veterans 
Memorial  Stadium,  but  in  the 
end  fell  in  defeat  26-7. 

The  loss  drops  the  Red 
Raiders  record  to  4-4  overall, 
and  3-3  in  the  Atlantic  Coast 
League.  With  the  win, 
Marshfield  ran  its  overall 
record  to  a  perfect  8-0,  and  7- 
0  in  the  ACL. 

The  Rams  battered  the 
Red  Raider  defense  and 
controlled  the  clock 
throughout  all  four  quarters 
by  using  four  different 
running  backs.  Marshfield's 
four  touchdown  scores  were 
scored  by  each  of  their  four 
running  backs. 

The  game  started  with  a 
55  yard  opening  kick  off 
return  by  the  Rams  that 
brought  the  ball  all  the  way 
down  to  the  North  Quincy 
35-yard  line.  Six  plays  later, 
Bob  MacNeil  scored  from 
one  yard  out  to  give 
Majshfield  a  6-0  lead.  Phil 
Whittiker's  point  after 
attempt  was  good  and  just 
five  minutes  into  the  contest 
the  score  was  7-0. 

The  Red  Raiders  quickly 
shook  off  the  Rams  opening 
drive  and  score  with  a  stellar 
scoring  drive  of  their  own. 
On  second  down  from  their 
own  37-yard  line,  senior 
running  back  Jon  Cahill 
scampered  for  26  yards  and 
into  Ram  territory.  Three 


plays  later  on  third  down  and 
nine,  senior  quarterback 
Dennis  Martin  lofted  a  jump 
ball  pass  into  the  endzone. 
Sophomore  wide  receiver 
Paul  Reamer,  doing  his  best 
Randy  Moss  impression, 
ripped  the  ball  away  from  the 
Marshfield  defender  in  one- 
on-one  coverage,  juggled  the 
ball  and  ultimately  came 
down  with  it  to  give  North 
Quincy  six  points.  Senior 
kicker  Zac  Deegan's  point 
after  attempt  was  successful 
and  at  the  end  of  the  first 
quarter,  the  score  was  7-7. 

Marshfield  took  the 
ensuing  possession  and 
chewed  up  the  clock  in  the 
second  quarter  with  a  16-play 
scoring  drive.  Of  the  1 6  plays 
that  the  Ram  coaching  staff 
called,  13  were  running  plays. 
With  the  Rams  subbing  in  all 
four  of  their  backs  on  the 
drive,  the  Red  Raider  defense 
played  on  their  heels  looking 
to  eliminate  the  deep  threat 
and  keep  the  running  game 
contained.  But  on  the  final 
run  of  the  drive,  Marshfield's 
Luke  Poirier  scored  from  one 
yard  out.  The  PAT  was  good 
and  at  the  half,  the  Rams  led 
14-7. 

As  the  second  half  began, 
the  Red  Raiders  had  the 
chance  to  take  the  ball  and 
even  up  the  score  against  one 
of  the  better  teams  in  the  area. 
But  the  drive  stalled  out  and 
North  was  forced  to  give  the 
ball  back  to  Marshfield. 
Using  their  power  running 
attack  on  the  ensuing 
possession,  the  Rams 
controlled  the  third  quarter

clock,  but  North's  defense 
held  its  ground  and  forced  a 
punt. 

In  what  may  have  been 
the  biggest  play  of  the  game, 
Marshfield  punted  the  ball 
deep  into  North  Quincy 
territory  where  it  was  downed 
at  the  one-yard  line.  The 
Rams  took  advantage  of  the 
great  field  position  by  forcing 
the  Red  Raiders  to  punt  the 
ball  from  out  of  the  back  of 
the  end/one.  After  receiving 
the  punt  at  the  NQ  21 -yard 
line,  Marshfield  ran  the  ball 
four  times  and  scored  their 
third  touchdown  of  the  game 
when  Brad  Poirier  scored 
from  five  yards  out. 

The  PAT  was  no  good, 
but  the  damage  was  done.  At 
the  end  of  three  quarters  of 
play,  Marshfield  held  a  20-6 
advantage. 

The  North  Quincy  offense 
got  something  going  on  their 
first  possession  of  the  fourth 
quarter,  moving  the  ball  close 
to  midfield,  but  Marshfield 
forced  a  turnover  to  get  the 
football  back. 

Marshfield  running  back 
Dennis  McCarthy  carried  the 
ball  three  times  on  next  drive, 
and  put  the  game  out  of  reach 
with  a  25-yard  touchdown 
run  with  6:56  to  play.  Another 
missed  PAT  after  the 
touchdown  resulted  in  the 
final  score  of  26-7. 

North  Quincy  is 
scheduled  to  play  Whitman- 
Hanson  High  School  on  the 
road  Friday  night  at  7  p.m. 
On  the  season,  the  Red 
Raiders  have  a  2-3  record  at 
home  and  a  2-1  record 
playing  as  the  visiting  team.

covered,  right? 

Well,  many  drivers, 
including  responsible  ones, 
often  overlook  tire 
maintenance-a  crucial 
component  of  car  care.  Your 
vehicle's  tires  are  more  than 
just  another  car  part.  These 
highly  engineered 

constructions  of  rubber  and 
steel  are  the  only  things  that 
stand  between  your  car  and 
the  road,  making  them 
important  to  your  safety. 

The  wet  weather  that 
marks  the  fall  and  winter 
seasons  makes  tire 
maintenance  even  more 


essential.  And  if  safety  isn't 
enough  to  get  you  thinking 
about  your  wheels,  properly 
inflated  tires  can  improve 
your  gas  mileage  and  save 
you  money  at  the  pump. 

Firestone  Complete  Auto 
Care  offers  these  tire- 
maintenance  tips  to  keep  you 
safely  rolling. 

Air  up:  While  you're 
waiting  for  your  vehicle '  s  gas 
tank  to  fill  up,  take  those  extra 
few  minutes  to  grab  your  tire 
gauge  and  check  the  pressure 
of  your  tires.  It  is  important 
to  note  that  tire  pressures  can 
only  be  accurately  checked

when  your  vehicle  has  been 
driving  less  than  one  mile  or 
has  been  stationary  for  at  least 
three  hours.  By  checking 
either  the  owner's  manual  or 
the  sticker  on  the  doorjamb 
or  glove  box,  you'll  find  the 
tire  inflation  number  that's 
best  for  your  vehicle. 

Tread  check:  Examine 
the  tread  on  your  tires  once  a 
month-your  tread  should  be 
at  least  2/32  inch.  Give  it  the 
penny  test  by  inserting  a 
penny  into  the  tread  with  the 
Lincoln's  head  down.  If  you 
can  see  the  top  of  Lincoln's 
head,  the  tread  is  worn,  and 
the  tire  needs  to  be  replaced. 

Rotate  regularly:  If 
you're  checking  your  tire 
pressure  and  tread  regularly, 
you're  on  the  right  track. 
However,  there' s  still  another 
component  of  responsible  tire 
maintenance  that  you  should 
be  aware  of. 

Your  tires  should  be 
rotated  on  a  regular  basis 
according  to  the  vehicle 
manufacturer's  scheduled 
maintenance 
recommendations  to  ensure 
they  wear  evenly,  last  longer 
and  provide  a  safer  ride.

compounds  toxic  to 
nematodes,  and  help  to 
repel  them  wherever

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  This  is  a  good  time  to 
speak  out  on  a  difficult  situa- 
tion. You're  known  for  your 
honesty,  so  people  will  listen 
and,  perhaps,  begin  to  make 
long-needed  changes. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  The  Bovine 's  sharp  busi- 
ness sense  alerts  you  to  ques- 
tion the  positions  of  those 
trying  to  push  the  Bull  into  a 
deal.  Demand  to  sec  proof  of 
what  they  profess. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Your  quick  thinking  helps 
you  get  out  of  a  troubling  sit- 
uation that  was  suddenly 
thrust  upon  you.  Later  on, 
you  can  expect  to  learn  more 
about  why  it  happened. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  You  might  feel  you've 
dotted  all  your  i  *s  and  crossed 
all  your  t's  regarding  that 
upcoming  deal.  But  there 
might  be  some  facts  you've 
ignored.  Check  again. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Time  for  the  Lion  to  be  more 
physically  active.  It  will  help 
shake  off  any  lingering  Leo- 
nine lethargy  and  restore 
your  energy  levels,  so  you'll 
be  prepared  for  what  lies 
ahead. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Helping  those  in 
need  at  this  time  is  laudable. 
But  don't  ignore  your  own 
needs,  especially  where  it 
concerns  your  health.  A  med- 
ical checkup  is  a  wise  move. 

•     IKK   A       1   V»*NT»*»1FU»»       J  <      »». 

Octo'Dci    22)    Good   news: 


Your  outspoken  views  about 
a  controversial  on-the-job 
situation  could  find  unex- 
pectedly strong  support  from 
a  most  unlikely  workplace 
faction. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  You  might 
have  to  draw  on  your  reser- 
voir of  spiritual  strength  to 
help  someone  special 
through  a  difficult  time.  Your 
loving  attitude  makes  all  the 
difference. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Your 
proven  leadership  qualities 
make  you  the  perfect  person 
to  take  on  an  important  work- 
place task. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Although 
some  compromise  might 
need  to  be  reached  regarding 
your  stand  on  an  important 
issue,  you'll  still  be  able  to 
get  the  most  crucial  points 
across. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  A  chance  to 
make  a  career  change  carries 
both  positive  and  uncertain 
possibilities.  Best  advice: 
Check  it  out  thoroughly  and 
don't  be  rushed  into  a  deci- 
sion. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  You're  still  a 
staunch  supporter  of  one  side 
of  an  important  issue.  But  be 
prepared  to  deal  with  new 
information  that  could  cause 
you  to  question  your  current 
stand. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
You're  perceptive  and  quick 
to  act  when  you  sense  that 
someone  needs  help.  You  are 
an  always -dependable  friend.

Tom  Koch  is  talking  about  Quincy*s  future, 

while  his  opponent  engages  in  personal  attacks  and  blames  others  for  his  record. 

With  your  help,  we  can  bring  real  leadership  to  City  Hall. 

Tom's  Plan  For  Quincy 


Taxes 

Every  time  you  open  your  tax  bill  you  see  that  taxes  are 
going  up.  Yet  Mayor  Phelan  brags  about  his  $17  million 
surplus.  It's  $  1 7  million  of  your  money;  meanwhile  ser- 
vices are  declining.  That  means  the  mayor  is  taxing  you 
too  much,  yet  he  spins  and  misleads  on  this  issue.  Tom 
vy^ill  provide  honest  leadership  on  this  and  every  issue. 

Tom  will  change  how  City  Hall  does  business: 
Creating  an  efficient,  cost-effective  and  responsive 
city  government. 

School  Building  Projects 

The  new  Quincy  High  School  will  cost  taxpayers  $46 
million  more,  and  there  is  no  state  funding  guarantee  for 
a  new  Central  Middle  School  or  Sterling  Middle  School 
because  of  Aloyor  Phelan's  failure  to  lead. 

Tom  will  provide  the  hard-line  oversight  of  the  high 
school  project  and  manage  future  school  projects  to 
ensure  the  largest  fmancial  mistake  in  Quincy  his- 
tory is  not  repeated.

Crime 

Quincy  has  a  drug  problem  and  it's  driving  our  crime  rate 
up.The  city  can  no  longer  afford  to  hide  behind  a  phony 
two-year-old  study  that  even  the  FBI  rejects.  Simple 
statistics  show  that  crime  is  up  and  the  number  of  drug 
overdoses  is  60  percent  higher  than  the  state  average, 
Tom  knows  that  drugs  and  crime  are  serious  challenges. 

Tom  will  double  the  size  of  our  police  department's 
drug  unit  and  take  the  fight  to  the  dealers,  Tom*s  plan 
will  make  Quincy  a  truly  safe  city. 

School  Safety 

Our  city  schools  have  repeatedly  failed  basic  fire  safety 
inspections.  Yet  the  mayor  Is  just  pointing  fingers  at 
others,  trying  to  dodge  the  problem. 

Tom  will  order  school  personnel  to  meet  and 
immediately  bring  every  school  into  compliance. 

Overdevelopment 

Tom  has  seen  what  you  have  seen  —  development  is 
changing  the  face  of  our  residential  neighborhoods. 

Look  no  further  than  the  two  huge  condos  on  Beale 
Street  and  Clay  Street. 

Tom  will  lead  on  this  issue  by  requiring  that 
developers  build  only  one-  or  two-family  homes  in 
our  neighborhoods. 


Traffic 

We  all  sit  in  the  same  traffic  every  day,  and  we  all  know 
how  much  worse  it  has  become.  But  after  two  years 
without  a  traffic  engineer  and  six  years  with 
no  leadership  on  this  issue,  it's  time  for  a  plan. 

Tom  will  develop  the  first  border-to-border  traffic  and 
parking  plan  for  Quincy  and  use  the  technology  we've 
already  paid  for  to  control  and  time  traffic  signals.

*  As  per  the  Resulence  and  Care  .Agreement 


and  in  particular,  Larry,  be- 
cause it  is  what  really  makes 
it  a  really  great  city." 

Senator  Michael 

Morrissey  said:  "Larry  is  a 
little  bit  blessed  as  he  is  al- 
ways helping  veterans' 
groups  first.  That  is  really 
important  as  we  are  creating 
more  veterans,  we  really 
need  people  like  Larry  so 
people  understand  what  their 
commitment  has  been  to  our 
country." 

State  Rep.  Bruce  Ayers 
noting  that  Norton  was  a 
"great  choice"  for  the  award, 
said:  "Here  is  a  guy  who 
doesn't  want  any  credit.  He 
likes  to  work  behind  the 
scenes.  A  veterans  veteran. 
Someone  who  fought  for  his 
country  in  Vietnam  and  came 
back  home  to  fight  for  veter- 
ans rights  and  to  work  with 
the  legislature  for  veterans 
and  family  benefits  and  to 
help  the  POWs. " 

They  presented  him  with 
a  commendation  and  a  state 
watch  with  the  seal  of  it  on 
behalf  of  the  Quincy  Beacon 
Hill  delegation. 

City  Council  President 
Doug  Gutro  said:  "Larry 


does  much  more  than  simply 
advocate  for  veterans  causes. 
He  does  a  lot  of  charitable 
work  behind  the  scenes  for 
those  far  less  fortunate.  He 
does  so  without  seeking  rec- 
ognition. 

"He  is  not  only  a  role 
model  for  veterans,  he  is  a 
role  model  for  young  people 
throughout  the  city  and 
across  the  country." 

Gutro  presented  Norton 
with  a  City  Council  citation 
with  council  colleagues  gath- 
ered beside  him. 

John  Keenan,  chairman 
of  the  City  Council  Veterans 
Committee,  praised  Norton 
and  his  family  for  teaching 
patriotism  in  the  city. 

Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  thanked  Norton  and 
his  wife,  Ruth,  for  "doing  so 
much"  in  bringing  about  the 
Germantown  Neighborhood 
Center  and  The  Pantry  that 
helps  the  needy. 

Lorraine  Aheam,  com- 
mander of  the  Quincy  Veter- 
ans Council,  said,  "I  don't 
think  I  can  think  of  anybody 
more  deserving  of  this 
award.  Larry  has  certainly 
earned  it." 

Norton's  son,  Michael, 


thanked  those  attending  to 
"honor  my  father-to  honor 
somebody  that  means  the 
world  to  me." 

David  Raftery  presented 
a  citation  to  Norton  on  be- 
half of  Norfolk  County  Dis- 
trict Atty.  William  Keating. 

Thomas  Bolinda,  a  deco- 
rated Marine  Corps  veteran 
of  the  Vietnam  War,  retired 
Quincy  police  lieutenant  an 
long-time  friend  praised  him 
for  his  years  of  work  for 
Vietnam  War  and  other  vet- 
erans-doing it  quietly  with- 
out fanfare. 

"This  is  the  type  of  man 
Larry  is.  Not  doing  it  for 
glory,  but  doing  it  because 
it's  the  right  thing  to  do." 

Norton,  said  the  JWV 
award  was  "a  great  honor" 
and  stressed: 

"We  need  to  give  back  to 
our  community.  The  youth  of 
our  city  is  the  future.  They 
are  going  to  be  voters.  It  is 
the  yoimg  people  coming  out 
of  high  school,  going  to  col- 
lege. We  want  them  to  stay 
in  the  city. 

"We  want  the  brightest 
and  the  best.  This  city  de- 
serves that.  This  is  a  fantas- 
tic city."

We  Don't  Endorse 


LaRAlA 


TOBIN 


Whenever  we  have  a  close  mayor's  race  like 
the  one  this  year,  people  ask  us,  "Is  The  Sun 
going  to  endorse  one  of  the  candidates?" 
And  the  answer  each  time-except  once-has  been 
"no." 

Frankly,  we  just  don't  believe  in  endorsing.  We 
don't  think  residents  of  Quincy  need  us  telling  them 
who  to  vote  for. 

They  certainly  are  tuned  in  and  well  qualified  to 
make  their  own  choice. 

We  respect  their  judgement  and  intelligence. 
The  Sun  is  now  in  its  40"'  year  and  we  did  make  an 
exception  once  to  our  no-endorsement  policy. 

That  was  in 
1977  in  the 
heated  mayoral 
campaign 
between 
incumbent 
Joseph  LaRaia 
and  challenger 
Arthur  Tobin,  president  of  the  City  Council. 

LaRaia  came  into  office  in  1975,  upsetting  Mayor 
Walter  Hannon  by  480  votes  in  that 
famed  recount.  That  was  a  hard-hitting 
campaign. 

The  LaRaia-Tobin  match  was  a 
slugfest. 

LaRaia' s  two  years  as  mayor  were 
stormy.  The  city  wasn't  moving  ahead 
but  seemed  to  be  standing  still,  frozen 
in  controversy  and  division  and  feuding. 

We  believed  a  change  was  needed  and  endorsed 
Tobin.  Most  voters  agreed  with  us.  Tobin  was  elected 
by  a  5,000-vote  margin. 

LaRaia  was  no  quitter,  though. 
He  came  back  to  serve  in  the  city  council  and  ran 
twice  again  for  mayor.  He  came  within 
just  460  votes  of  unseating  incumbent 
Frank  McCauley  in  1987. 

That,  no  doubt,  had  something  to 
do  with  McCauley  deciding  that  four 
terms  were  enough  and  he  did  not  seek 
a  fifth. 

He  says  a  mayor  can  stay  too  long. 
He  was  quoted  recently  as  musing;  "The  key  is  to  get 
out  before  they  throw  you  out." 

McCauley  returned  to  the  City  Council  and  topped 


PHELAN 


KOCH 


HANNON 


McCAULEY 


the  field  in  2003,  was  elected  council  president,  and 
stepped  into  retirement. 

His  career  spanned  32  years  and  he  is  the  only  person 
ever  to  be  elected  mayor,  ward  councillor,  councillor 
at-large  and  school  committee  member. 

LaRaia,  incidentally  served  20  years  in  the  city 
council,  second  in  length  only  to  John  Quinn's  24. 

And  as  mayor  he  left  a  big  legacy:  a  new  City  Hall. 

A  number  of  mayors  before  him  talked  about  the 
need  for  a  new  City  Hall  but  he  did  something  about  it. 
And  deserves  the  credit. 

That  1 977  endorsement  has  been  our  only  one,  as 
The  Sun  begins  its  40""  year. 

This  year,  incumbent  William  Phelan  and  challenger 
Tom  Koch  both  had  ample  opportunity 
to  present  their  case 
to   the    voters   of 
Quincy. 

There  were  three 
debates  at  North 
Quincy  and  Quincy 
High  Schools,  at  the 
Quincy  Access  TV 

studio,  all  carried  over  Quincy  Access  TV,  sponsored 
by  The  Patriot  Ledger  and  in  which  The  Sun  participated. 

There  were  candidates'  nights  throughout  the  city, 
campaign  and  pre-election  news  stories,  news  releases, 
coffee  hours.  And  the  candidates  themselves  knocking 
on  doors,  meeting  with  residents  and  discussing  with 
them  issues. 

The  Sun  also  invited  the  two  candidates  to  state  their 
case  in  their  own  words  last  week  in  the  final  issue 
before  the  election. 

Quincy  residents  are  most  interested  in  what  is  going 
on  in  the  community  and  especially  at  City  Hall. 

We  are  sure  they  were  focused  on  this  year' s  campaign 
and  knew  the  issues. 

They  did  not  need  us  to  tell  them  how  to  vote 
Tuesday. 

If  other  newspapers  want  to  endorse  a  candidate, 
that's  their  business  and  right.  So,  too,  labor  unions. 

But  we  feel  voters  really  don't  need  us  telling  them 
how  or  who  to  vote  for.  It's  their  decision.  Not  ours. 

Instead  of  telling  them  how  to  vote  we  would  do 
better  to  tell  them  to  be  sure  to  get  out  and  vote-their 
choice. 

In  a  close  election,  every  vote  really  does  count. 
The  people  spoke  on  Tuesday. 


Gutro  Honors  10  ENC  Students 


For  Environmental  Work 


Ward  5  City  Councillor 
Doug  Gutro  honored  10 
Eastern  Nazarene  College 
(ENC)  students  for  their 
environmental  work  during 
a  ceremony  Tuesday  at  the 
Linda  Whitling  Lounge  on 
the  ENC  campus. 

For  their  project,  the 
students,  three  ENC 
instructors,  and  several 
Quincy  residents  cut  back  an 
invasive  reed,  the  phragmite, 
that  is  threatening  local  marsh 
habitats. 

Phragmites,  a  wild  reed, 
chokes  off  native  plants, 
harbor  mosquitoes,  and  block 
drainage.  The  reed  thrives  in 
areas  where  the  salt  water 
content  in  endangered 
marshes  is  too  low. 


Gutro  cited  the  students' 
efforts  to  reduce  the 
phragmite  overgrowth  which 
is  endangering  the  college's 
Dickens  Marsh.  Dickens 
Marsh  is  part  of  Black's 
Creek  Salt  Marsh. 

During  the  project,  the 
group  members  spent  four  to 
six  hours  cutting  and 
bundling  the  reed  in  Dickens 
Marsh.  The  volunteers  were 
able  to  eliminate  10  to  20% 
of  the  reed  which  is  not  only 
an  environmental  menace 
and  eyesore,  but  also  a  fire 
hazard. 

"By  recognizing  student 
contributions  through 
community  service  projects 
like  this  one,  we  can  inspire 
volunteerism,     build     a 


stronger  bond  with  ENC,  and 
let  students  know  that  their 
contributions  to  our  city  make 
a  difference,"  said  Gutro. 

"In  my  experience,  ENC 
students,  faculty  and  staff 
welcome  the  opportunity  to 
give  back  to  our  city  and  have 
made  a  difference  each  time." 

Gutro  outlined  a  number 
of  environmental  projects  in 
which  the  college's 
volunteers  played  important 
roles  and  he  praised  their 
dedication. 


"I've  worked  with  ENC 
faculty  and  staff  on  marsh 
and  beach  cleanups,  water 
quality  analysis  at  local  ponds 
and  other  important  projects 
that  contribute  to  the  quality 
of  life  in  our  city. "  said  Gutro. 

ENC  Ecology  Professor 
Jonathan  Twining  who 
joined  the  team  hacking  down 
the  reeds  said,  "The  residents 
and  ENC  will  continue  to 
work  together  to  try  and 
address  the  phragmites 
issue."

IHIS  EARLY  192()'S  real  photo  postcard  is  a  view  of 
what  is  known  today  as  Post  Isiand  Road  looking  west 
towards  Adams  Shore.  This  was  originally  known  as 
Shellton  Road.  Post  Island  and  Adams  Shore  were  the 
first  part  of  the  500-acre  Mt.  Wollaston  Farm  to  be  sub- 
divided and  sold  by  Fanny  Crowinshield  Adams,  the 
widow  of  John  Quincy  Adams  II  who  had  died  in  1894. 
The  original  Post  Island  subdivision  had  34  lots  with  10 
of  them  on  the  waterfront  extending  down  to  low  tide. 


As  sht)wn  here,  seawalls  and  piers  could  be  built  with- 
out any  of  the  restrictions  in  place  today.  In  the  dis 
tance  (m  the  right  are  cottages  in  \danis  Shore.  That 
subdivision  was  laid  out  by  the  Adams  Shore  Land 
Company  with  267  lots  for  cottages  and  a  large  parcel 
for  the  Shellton  Inn.  Toda>,  most  of  the  cottages  built 
there  have  been  converted  into  year-round  homes.  To

DOVE  Awarded  $20,000  Grant 


DOVE,  Inc.,  the  domes- 
tic violence  agency  and  shel- 
ter based  in  Norfolk  County, 
has  been  awarded  a  $20,000 
grant  from  the  Mary  Kay 
Charitable  Foundation  this 
month,  which  is  also  Na- 
tional Domestic  Violence 
Awareness  Month. 

DOVEisjustoneof  150 
shelters  thioughout  the  coun- 
try receiving  a  $20,000  grant 


from  Mary  Kay. 

"I  am  thrilled  to  accept 
this  grant  from  the  Mary  Kay 
Charitable  Foundation  on 
behalf  of  DOVE,"  said  Ex- 
ecutive Director  Stephanie 
Flaherty.  "This  grant  will 
help  us  continue  our  work  to 
protect,  educate,  and  care  for 
victims  and  survivors  of  do- 
mestic violence." 

According     to     Ryan 


Rogers,  Mary  Kay  Chari- 
table Foundation  board 
member  and  grandson  of 
Mary  Kay  Ash,  "We  are 
hopeful  that  these  grants  will 
succeed  in  heightening  the 
awareness  of  the  insidious 
problem  of  domestic  vio- 
lence against  women,  as  well 
as  providing  much-needed 
financial  aid  to  local  shelters 
on  a  grassroots  level." 


The  Mary  Kay  Charitable 
Foundation  was  created  in 
1 996  to  fund  research  of  can- 
cers affecting  women,  and  in 
2000,  expanded  its  mission 
to  include  the  prevention  oi 
violence  against  women. 
Since  then,  more  than  $11 
million  has  been  awarded  to 
women's  shelters  across  the 
country.

QHS  Drama  Club  To  Present 
Neil  Simon's  'Fools'  Friday,  Saturday 


The  Quincy  High  School 
Drama  Club  will  present 
Neil  Simon's  comedy 
"Fools"  Friday  and  Saturday, 
Nov.  9  and  10  at  8  p.m.  in 
the  Lloyd  A.  Hill  Center  for 
the  Performing  Arts  at 
Quincy  High  School,  52 
Coddington  St.,  Quincy. 

Tickets  are  $10  for  stu- 
dents and  seniors  and  $  1 2  for 
adults.  All  .seating  is  general 
admission. 

Tickets  can  be  reserved  by 
calling  Quincy  High  School 
at  617-984-8754. 

In  this  production  of 
"Fools,"  when  young  Leon 
Tolchinsky  (Zach  Dwyer) 
walks  into  the  1 890s  Russian 
village  of  Kulyenchikov  to 
answer  a  help-wanted  adver- 
tisement, he  is  taken  aback. 
Because  of  an  ancient  curse, 
everyone  in  the  village  is  an 
idiot.  Tolchinsky  then  learns 
that  he  will  have  to  break  the 
curse,  or  become  an  idiot, 
too. 

Dr.  Zubritsky  (Michael 
Mottola)  and  his  wife,  Lenya 
(Taylor  Dennehey)  will  sent 
for  Tolchinsky  so  he  can  edu- 
cate their  daughter,  Sophia 
(Kayla  Pendleton).  At  first 
Tochinsky  balks,  but  then 
realizes  saving  Sophia  can 
save  the  whole  village  in- 
cluding himself. 

In  the  comic  fable, 
Tolchinsky  learns  he  must 
get  a  Zubritsky  to  marry  a 
Yousekevitch.  The  problem 
is,  there  is  no  love  in  the  vil- 
lage, says  Slovich  (Sarah 
Dougenik)  the  butcher,  be- 
cause a  fool  cannot  know  the 
meaning     of     love.      If

Historical  Society  Topic 


Six  major  contemporary 
artists  who  were  born  or

Speaker  Kathleen  Bitetti,

works  of  the  six  artists  and 
how  their  connection  to 
Quincy  played  a  role  in  their 
art. 

Bitetti  will  focus 
particularly  on  how  each 


artist's  works  were  socially 
or  politically  relevant.  She 
will  focus  on  their  common 
connection  to  Quincy. 

Edward  Fitzgerald, 
executive  director  of  the 
Historical  Society,  will 
provide  an  historical  context 
and  discuss  the  history  of 
earlier  artists  in  Quincy.

Strawberry  Jell-O  Salad 


They  said  there's  always  room  for  Jell-O. 
And  they'll  be  a  lot  of  room  in  today's  recipe 
for  the  light  dessert. 

I  got  the  recipe  from  a  friend  Nancy  Jacobs 
after  tasting  this  tasty  treat. 

STRAWBERRY  JELI.-O  SALAD 

3  package.s  Jell-O  (raspberry  can  also 
be  used) 

1  large  can  crushed  pineapple 

2  containers  of  frozen  strawberries  in 
syrup 

8  ounces  sour  cream 

Mix  three  cups  of  boiling  water  with  three 


packages  of  Jell-O. 

Add  the  strawberries  and  pineapple  to  the 
mixture. 

Place  half  of  the  mixture  in  a  large  glass 
baking  dish  and  refrigerate  until  it  sets,  (set 
aside  the  other  half) 

When  this  is  set,  spread  the  sour  cream 
over  the  Jell-O  and  then  add  the  other  half  of 
the  Jell-O  mixture  over  the  sour  cream  and 
then  refrigerate  again  until  set. 

Not  only  was  it  delicious,  it  looks  so  pretty 
with  the  sour  cream  shimmering  through  the 
Jell-O.

FIRE   SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Complying  With  Regulations 


You  know  it  doesn't  take 
long  for  something  to  occur 
prompting  an  article  from 
me.  Once  something  is 
brought  to  my  attention 
through  a  conversation  or 
news  report,  there's  the  urge 
to  use  it  to  convey  some  as- 
pect of  lire  prevention  to  the 
public. 

Reading  excerpts  from 
that  tragic  West  Roxbury 
fire;  two  aspects  of  that  inci- 
dent caught  my  attention. 
The  fire  took  place  in  a  res- 
taurant. We  inspect  many  of 
the  bars,  restaurants  and 
nightclubs  with  the  city,  at- 
tempting to  convey  the  im- 
portance of  adhering  to  code 
and  maintaining  a  safe 
premise  365  days  a  year. 

There  are  many  things  we 
look  at  during  an  inspection 
while  there  us  much  that  we 
emphasize  as  well.  For  in- 
stance, we  convey  to  owners 
and  managers  that  it  is  im- 
perative that  they  have  some 
evacuation  plan  in  place  in 
the  event  they  witness  smoke 
or  fire  within  their  establish- 
ment. We  emphasize  the  im- 


portance of  evacuating  pa- 
trons immediately,  and  with- 
out delay. 

This  incident  in  West 
Roxbury  demonstrates  that 
importance.  The  patrons 
were  evacuated,  while  the 
tragedy  appeared  to  occur 
soon  after  when  the  fire  ap- 
paratus arrived.  That  would 
have  taken  mere  minutes. 
The  loss  was  great  enough  as 
it  was,  how  much  greater  if 
there  had  been  hesitation  in 
evacuation  of  patrons  as 
well. 

Also  emphasized,  is  the 
importance  of  scheduled 
hood  and  ductwork  cleaning 
in  kitchens.  Apparently  there 
was  an  issue  with  these  in 
that  West  Roxbury  restau- 
rant. During  our  inspection, 
the  owners  sign  a  document 
acknowledging  that  they  are 
aware  of  the  code  pertaining 
to  hoods  and  ductwork 
cleaning,  the  need  for  an 
evacuation  plan  and  any 
other  code  pertaining  to  their 
establishment.  It  is  all  speci- 
fied in  black  and  white  to 
keep  the  owners  informed 


and  encourage  that  )ear 
round  compliance. 

The  State  code  defers  to 
the  NFPA  Standard  96.  In 
that,  hoods,  ductwork,  etc., 
must  be  cleaned  to  bare 
metal  at  frequent  intervals 
and  inspected  every  six 
months.  For  years  now,  es- 
tablishments have  received 
flyers  pertaining  to  this  and 
all  other  code.  It  is  empha- 
sized as  well  during  each 
yearly  inspection.  If  that 
emphasis  wasn't  enough, 
this  tragic  fire  in  West 
Roxbury  should  be. 

Once  again  1  take  this  op- 
portunity to  impress  upon  the 
owners  of  these  establish- 
ments that  we  are  here  to 
answer  any  questions  that 
they  may  have  regarding  the 
requirements  of  code  for 
their  establishments.  For 
years  we've  taken  every  op- 
portunity to  detail  the  spe- 
cific requirements  in  writing 
for  their  reference.  This  re- 
cent fire  is  another  example 
of  why  we  have  been  so  vigi- 
lant in  doing  so. 

Thank  you!

People  with  diabetes  have  to 
be  very  careful  with  their  feet.  They 
need  frequent  visits  to  the  podia- 
trist, careful  foot  maintenance,  and 
the  right  shoes  and  orthotics,  which 
are  shoe  inserts.  An  orthotic  made 
of  a  material  called  plastazote  is 
the  best  bet  for  the  diabetic  foot. 
The  material  molds  to  the  foot  and 
can  therefore  accommodate  hot 
spots  in  the  foot.  Appropriate  foot- 
wear is  also  vitally  important  to  the 
diabetic  foot.  Shoes  should  have 
a  wide  toe  box,  and  they  should 
also  have  insoles  that  can  be  re- 
moved so  that  orthotics  (such  as 
the  plastazote  ones  mentioned) 
can  be  used.  A  rocker  sole  on  the 
shoe  is  also  helpful,  as  is  a  firm 
heel  counter. 

November  is  National  Diabe- 
tes Month,  conceived  to  commu- 
nicate the  seriousness  of  the  dis- 
ease arKi  the  importance  of  proper 
(tebetes  control.  We've  seen  the 


results  of  untreated  and  self- 
treated  diabetic  foot  problems, 
and  we  cannot  advise  strongly 
enough  for  diabetics  to  seek  pro- 
fessional care.  Whether  you  are 
dealing  with  diabetes-related 
problems  or  feet  that  just  hurt,  we 
hope  you'll  call  us  for  an  appoint- 
ment at  781-986-3668,  QUINCY

Koch's  Ust  of  contributors 
is  every  bit  as  impressive, 
starting  with  the  city  em- 
ployees' unions.  The 
Firefighters,  Police  Patrol- 
men, Public  Employees  and 
Public  Safety  Unions  all  sent 
in  the  maximum  $500.  Bruce 
Tail,  president  of  the 
Patrolmen's  Union,  added 
$100. 

The  large  Koch  family 
was  an  ATM  machine  for 
their  candidate  with  $500 
each  coming  from  Barry, 
Christine,  Thomas,  Marylou, 


Matthew,  Doris,  Joseph, 
Simone,  Linda,  and  the  fam-

nical education,  gave  $250

Ng  Council  At-Large 
Top  Raiser,  Spender 


Strangely,  the  one  candi- 
date of  the  five  who  were 
running  for  the  three  at-large 
seats  on  the  City  Council 
who  has  raised  the  most 
money  is  the  one  with  the 
least  political  experience. 

Victor  Ng  noted  in  his  re- 
port due  eight  days  before 
the  election  that  he  had 
raised  $29,309.39,  mostly  in 
$  1 00  donations  from  fellow 
Asians,  and  spent  a  total  of 
$15,976.10. 

A  second  first  time  can- 
didate for  the  at-large  seat, 
Jennifer  Logue,  daughter  of 
former  Mayor  Francis 
McCauley,  reported  receiv- 
ing $10,840.68  and  spending 
5,337.05. 

The  three  incumbent  can- 
didates, Michael  McFarland, 
John  Keenan  and  Joseph 
Finn,  all  had  the  luxury  of 
starting  their  1007  cam- 
paigns with  money  left  over 
from  previous  bids. 

McFarland  started  with  a 
balance  of  $21,387.36, 
raised  $19,225.63  and  spent 
$9,580.98. 

Finn  had  $6,996.99  in  his 
campaign  treasury  to  start, 
raised  $9,835  and  spent 
$6,471. 

Keenan  had  $16,756.83  at 
his  disposal  when  he  an- 
nounced for  reelection, 
raised  only  $16.77  and  spent 
$7,334.65. 

The  biggest  contributors 
to  Ng's  campaign  were  the 
Ng  Family  Benevolent  Asso- 
ciation       of       Boston's 


Chinatown,  $1 ,000,  Deborah 
Lam  of  Marblehead,  and  the 
International  Brotherhood  of 
Electrical  Workers  Locals 
103  and  2222  $500  apiece. 

Tops  among  the  Logue 
contributors  were  her  father 
and  mother.  Frank  and 
Sandra,  who  gave  $500  each. 

Finn's  best  contributors 
were  two  labor  organiza- 
tions, the  Massachusetts  La- 
borers District  Council  and 
the  International  Brother- 
hood of  Electrical  Workers 
Local  103,  each  of  whom 
gave  $500. 

Most  of  McFarland's  con- 
tributions came  in  chunks  of 
$100  ,  most  notably  from 
former  Attorney  General 
Frank  Bellotti,  City  Solicitor 
Monica  Conyngham,  former 
QHA  Director  John  Comer, 
Congressman  Bill  Delahunt, 
School  Supt.  Richard 
DeCristofaro  and  ex-Mayor 
Walter  Hannon. 

The  only  race  for  the  City 
Council  on  the  ward  level 
was  that  between  incumbent 
Brian  McNamee  and  Jimmy 
Liang  in  Ward  6  and  that 
turned  out  to  be  a  fund  rais- 
ing free-for-all. 

McNamee,  who  was 
seeking  a  second  term  on  the 
Council,  started  with  a  bal- 
ance of  $5,251.34,  raised 
$22,816  and      spent 

$24,109.74. 

Liang,  who  had  previ- 
ously run  twice  for  a-large 
seats,  had  $107.39  in  his 
campaign  treasury  when  the 


period  started,  raised 
$26,696  and  spent 
26,419.33. 

Biggest  contributors  to 
McNamee  war  chest  was  the 
auto  dealer  Daniel  Quirk, 
who  donated  $750,  Carol 
Stenmon  $500,  restaurateurs 
Cecilia  and  Kwong  Yu  of 
Milton  $600  and  Uncle  Sam 
Rounseville  $200. 

Liang's  report  listed  his 
biggest  contributors  as  Ed- 
ward Smith,  John  Liang, 
Paul  and  Geraldine  Daly, 
Richard  Manginelli  and  the 
Coyne  Family,  as  well  as 
loans  from  Xin  Xia  Liang 
$6,000  and  Tony  Liang 
$2,000. 

Unopposed  for  reelection 
were  ward  councillors  Leo 
Kelly  in  Ward  1,  Daniel 
Raymondi  in  Ward  2,  Kevin 
Coughlin  in  Ward  3,  Jay 
Davis  in  Ward  4  and  Doug 
Gutro  in  Ward  5.  All  filed  fi- 
nancial reports  just  the  same. 

Kelly  reported  a  balance 
of  $17,651.41  going  in, 
$5050  in  receipts  and 
$7,476.67  in  expenditures. 

Raymondi  $178,223.44 
balance,  $5,096.48  raised, 
$2,717.62  spent. 

Coughlin  $10, 13 1.82  bal- 
ance, $5,864  raised. 
$5,273.30  spent. 

Davis  $9,644.59  balance, 
$5,933  raised,  $7,294.43 
spent. 

Gutro  $24,891.16  bal- 
ance, $16,157.45  raised, 
$9,846.91  spent.

Bellotti  Speaks  On 

Safety  Programs  At 

Beechwood  Breakfast 


Over  50  persons  recently 
attended  .Sherin  Michael 
Beliotti's  safety 

dcmc>nstratit)n  at  the  lirst 
session  ot  the  ".Season  ot 
.Salety"  program  at 
Beechwood  Com m unit y 
Center,  Hast  .Scjuantum  .St.. 
North  Quinc) . 

Ik'Ilotti,  Norlolk 

Counts 's  highest-ranking 
public  satety  official, 
launched  Beechwood  "s 
Current  l'.\ents  Break  last 
series  with  his  session  on 
safety. 

l:\ecutive  Director 
ShaiTon  Beals  said  October 
is  designated  as  "Salety 
Season"  at  the  Beechwood 
C  enter. 

Bellotti  described  Project 


LifeSaver  and  all  of  his 
deparimeni"s  Community 
Service  Outreach  Programs 
and  explained  how  each 
program  aids  the  community. 

Both  Bellotti  and  his 
safety  administrator  Bill 
(Doc)  Knight,  demonstrated 
the  detector  tool  used  in  the 
county's  Pioject  LifeSaver 
program  and  ottered  tips  on 
home  and  road  security. 

Knight  explained  how  the 
detector  tool,  which 
resembles  a  tele\ision  rot*! 
antenna,  is  used  to  locate  lost 
persons. 

In  addition,  Beechwood's 
seniors  learned  about  special 
programs  targeting  their 
situation.  For  example,  the 
sheriff's  department 


developed  a  Safe  Driver 
Program  which  offers  older 
drivers  relresher-driving 
classes  in  conjunction  with 
AARP. 

The  sheriff's  team  also 
outlined  the  "Are  You  O.K.?" 
program  which  recommends 
a  phone  call  a  day,  every  day, 
for  each  senior. 

The  county  also  initiated 
the  Triad,  a  three-way  link 
between  cities  and  towns, 
their  police  departments,  and 
the  sheritT's  office. 

According  to  Beals, 
additional  safety  programs  in 
October  will  include  visits 
from  staffs  ot  the  fire 
department,  the  National  Fire 
Pre\ention  Association. 
Fallon  ambulance  and  the 
Quincy  Police  Department. 


Escaped  Quincy  Court 
Prisoner  Still  Sought 


The  .^7-\  ear  old  prisoner

Ironi  Quincy  Court  House 
Monday  w  as  still  at  large  late 
Tuesday,  according  to  David 
Weber,  spokesman  for  the 
Norfolk  County  Sheriff's 
office. 

Weber  said  the  escaped 
prisoner,  Sean  Ciulla,  was 
wearing  leg  irons  and  arm 
chains  when  he  escaped  from 
court  custod)'  late  Monday 
afternoon.  He  theorizes  that 
Ciulla  was  able,  possibly  with 
an  accomplice,  to  obtain  bolt- 
cutters  or  a  ride  in  car. 

"It  gets  dark  earlier  now," 
Weber  said,  suggesting  that 
Ciulla  hid  in  the  darkness 
around  5: 20  p.m.  to  5 :30  p.m. 
when  the  transport  van  left 
Quincy  for  Norfolk  County 
Jail  in  Dedham.

"He  remains  escaped.  We 
have  not  brought  him  into 
custody."  Weber  said 
Tuesday,  noting  that  all  local 
jurisdictions  had  been 
notified  and  police  are 
checking  addresses  and 
contacts  for  the  county. 

"He's  a  non-violent 
offender,"  Weber  said  of 
Ciulla's  past  record.  The 
suspect  had  been  arraigned 
on  misdemeanor  charges,  one 
for  a  third  offense  of 
shoplifting  and,  the  second, 
for  giving  police  officers  a 
false  name. 

However,  Weber  also, 
described  the  escapee  as  a 
substance  abuser  who  could 
be  suffering  withdrawal 
symptoms. 

"He's  a  criminal,"  said 
Weber,  "He  was  arrested  in 
Braintree  over  the  weekend." 
The  arrest  was  his  third 
offense  for  shoplifting. 

Prisoners  are  routinely 
transferred  from  court 
custody  to  the  custody  of  the 


various  jurisdictions.  They 
are  transported  by  van  to 
Norfolk  County  Jail  in 
Dedham. 

Weber  acknowledged  that 
Ciulla's  escape  went 
undetected  until  the  transport 
van  returned  to  the  jail.  The 
count  was  one  prisoner  short. 

"We're  not  finished  with 
our  investigation,"  Weber 
said. 

Asked  whether  there  is  a 
head  count  of  prisoners  when 
the  van  leaves  Quincy 
District  Court,  Weber  said, 
"That's  all  part  of  the 
investigation." 

Weber  said  he  did  not  have 
Ciulla's  mug  shot  available. 
The  suspect  is  a  white  male, 
5  feet,  7  inches,  weighing 
approximately  118  pounds. 
He  has  brown  hair  and  blue 
eyes  and  was  last  seen 
wearing  a  Red  Sox  cap. 

Persons  who  have  seen 
Ciulla  or  know  of  his 
whereabouts  are  asked  to  call 
911.

Some  Tips  To  Become  An  Informed  Homebuyer 


(NU)  -  If  you've  been 
watching  the  real  estate 
market  recently,  you  know 
that  many  homeowners  are 
in  a  state  of  peril. 

With  interest  rates  on  the 
rise  and  home  prices  on  the 
ilecline,  many  homeowners 
are  facing  foreclosure. 

The  first  six  months  of 
2(K)7  were  marked  by  a  5S 
percent  increase  in  home 
loreclosures,  which  means 
that  one  in  ever\  134  I'.S. 
householils  is  headed  toward 
foreclosure.  And  while  these 
numbers  don't  bode  well  for 
homeowners,  hmnebuyers. 
especially  rirsl-lime 

homebu\ers,  should  consider 
taking  .ui\aniaiie  k>\  this 
market. 

Sellers  are  reducing  their 
prices.  making  the 
environment  ideal  lor 
aspiring  owners,  but  busers 
need  to  be  educated 

The  experts  at  Market 
Street  Mortgage  are  putting 
prospective  homebuyers  on 


the  right  path  to  home 
ownership  with  these  tips: 

•  Detail  your  flnance.s: 

Look  at  your  credit  income 
and  your  monthly  expenses 
to  determine  what  you  have 
leftover.  Hxamine  your 
expenses  to  see  if  there  are 
any  cutbacks  you  can  make. 

•  Determine  a  price 
ran^e:  Based  on  your  budget, 
decide  how  much  you  can 
comlorlably  spend  on  a 
mortgage  payment  each 
month.  Once  you  have  that 
number,  use  a  mortgage 
calculator  i>nline 
( WMM  .ii\uiatsticvduMt^j^.a)i  1)  I 
or  talk  to  a  mortgage 
consultant  to  help  you 
determine  your  price. 

•  ("heck  (Hit  the  Federal 
Housing;  Administration 
loan  options:  This  is  a  t\pe 
of  loan  that  has  been  around 
f  i>r  more  than  70  years  and  is 
even  backed  by  the  federal 
government.  These  loans 
give  you  the  ability  to  have  a 
ver\   low  down  pa\nient-it 


you  qualify.  It  al.so  allows 
for  financing  assistance  from 
certain  programs  that  may  be 
in  your  area. 

•  Consider  your  future: 
Think  about  your  future  in 
order  tt>  better  determine 
what  nn>rtgage  option  will 
work  best.  Di>  you  see 
yourself  in  the  home  for  just 
three  years,  or  are  you  and 
your  spouse  thinking  of 
starting  a  fanuly  and  wanting 
this  to  be  your  family  home .' 
■All  of  these  considerations 


are  important  in  determining 
what  mortgage  will  work  best 
for  you. 

•  Shop  around:  Have 
your  mortgage  consultant 
compare  different  loan 
products  for  you.  An 
adjustable-rate  mortgage 
may  have  a  great  rate,  but 
have  you  compared  that  to  a 
fixed-rate  mortgage'  If  the 
rates  are  similar,  the  fixed- 
rate  Jiiortgage  might  be  a 
smart  move. 

•  Enlist  an  expert:  Work 


with  a  real  estate  agent  who     the  expertise  to  help  you 
will  be  patient  and  provide     through  the  process.

read  in  a  column  of 
.  yours  that  home 
lation  should  have  a 
"proper  R-value."  What 
does  that  mean?  —  Doris 
L.,  Pittsburgh 

A, R-value  refers  to  the 
.  level  of  resistance  to 
heat  flow  that  insulation  — 
from  fiberglass  attic  insula- 
tion to  pipe  wrap  —  pro- 
vides. Heat,  of  course,  tends 
to  radiate  outward  and 
upward,  and  in  the  winter 
especially,  one  wants  to  con- 
trol how  much  of  that  heat 
escapes  from  the  home  and 
the  water  supply. 

So,  when  choosing  the 
type  of  insulation,  the  R-val- 
ue is  a  more  important  con- 
sideration than  the  thickness 
or  thinness  of  the  insulating 
material.  More  is  not  neces- 
sarily better  when  it  comes 
to  home  insulation.  The  R- 
value,  the  type  of  insulating 
material  and  how  it  is  used 
are  the  deciding  factors  in 
effective  insulation  that 
keeps  a  home  comfortable 
and  pushes  energy  costs 
down. 

What's  the  best  R-value 
for  your  home?  The  first 
thing  to  find  out  is  the  value 
required  for  your  climate 
zone.  U.S.  building  codes 
require  a  minimum  R-value

insulation  for  homes  —  in 
most  zones,  the  value  for, 
say,  insulative  wall  sheath- 
ing is  R-11. 

The  Oak  Ridge  National 
Laboratory  Building  Enve- 
lope and  Materials  Program 
offers  a  very  informative 
Web  site  with  information 
on  all  types  of  home  insula- 
tion. Its  fact  sheet  on  insula- 
tion can  be  found  at 
http://www.oml.gov/sci/roo 
fs+walls/facts/index.htm. 
Included  in  the  HTML  ver- 
sion of  this  fact  sheet  is  a 
handy  calculator  called  Zip- 
Code,  which  gives  the  rec- 
ommended R-value  for  insu- 
lation —  and  the  estimated 
cost  of  installation  — 
depending  on  where  you 
live,  what  part  of  the  house 
you  need  to  insulate  and 
what  type  of  heating  system 
you  use.  Read  through  the 
contents  to  learn  about  home 
insulation,  the  best  ways  to 
install  it  and  whether  you 
can  install  certain  types  of 
insulation  yourself  or  should 
hire  a  contractor  to  do  the 
job.

Nulrilion.  FAcrcise 
Go  Hand  in  Hand 

Q,  My  exercise  routine 
•  over  the  past  six 
months  has  been  >;reat.  I 
ha>e  more  energy,  feel 
stronger  and  have  more 
flexibility  than  anytime  in 
the  past  10  years.  Vet  with 
all  of  these  accomplish- 
ments. I  still  have  not 
reached  my  v^eight  goal.  I 
must  admit  that  1  have 
focused  more  on  my  exer- 
cise than  my  nutrition; 
hov^cver.  I  thought  1  would 
have  seen  more  weight 
changes  by  now.  \ri'  my 
eating  habits  keeping  me 
from  reaching  my  goal? 

A,  Making  the  commii- 
•  merit  to  consistr nt!y 
take  pan  in  an  exercise  pro- 
gram IS  a  great  accomplish- 
ment. There  is  no  question 
that  exercise  is  beneficial 
and  nccessan.  The  effort 
needed  to  exercise  is  often 
seen  as  enough  to  get  the 
results  you  desire.  However, 
your  nutntional  habils  are  a 
major  factor  in  your  goal  to 
lose  weight,  body  fat  and 
even  gain  lean  muscle. 

V^Tiat  you  put  in  your  body 
helps  maintain  what  is 
going  on  m  your  body.  This 
makes  it  absolutely  impera- 
tive to  monitor  v^hat.  when 
and  how  much  you  intake. 
Following  a  balanced  nutn- 
tional plan,  designed  for 
you,  will  help  your  body  get 
the  needed  nulnenis  and 
energy  to  recover  from 
w'orkouts.  build  lean  rnuscie 
and  supply  the  other  organs 
of  your  body  to  function 
efficiently. 

The  combination  of  proper 
nutnlion  and  exercise  can 


he  achieved  one  piece  at  a 
time.  Since  you  have 
already  begun  your  exercise 
program  and  have  seen 
results,  slowly  begin  to 
incorporate  better  nutntion- 
al habits  each  week.  Often- 
times we  change  what  is 
easiest  for  us  to  change  first 
and  slowly  progress  to  mak- 
ing more  difficult  changes. 
If  your  nutntional  habits  are 
more  challenging  for  you  to 
change,  begin  making  small 
changes  and  increase  your 
commitment  to  those 
changes  each  week. 

Creating  a  healthy  eating 
environment  may  take  time, 
but  be  patient  and  remember 
to  Stan  small.  For  example, 
if  you  do  not  eat  breakfast. 
Start  off  your  week  by  eating 
breakfast.  Once  eating 
breakfast  becomes  easier, 
make  another  change.  Keep 
making  these  changes  until 
you  are  regularly  eating  a 
sensible  and  healthful  diet. 

Exercise  without  proper 
nutrition,  and  p»ropcr  nutri- 
tion without  exercise,  can 
produce  results,  although 
the  results  you'll  achieve 
when  completed  in  tandem 
w  ill  be  much  greater. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

DOW  N  TO  THE  ROOTS 

The  ad\  anced  form  of  gum      health  as  w  ell  as  to  personal  ap- 


disease  known  as  "periodon- 
titis" occurs  when  stick) 
plaque  on  and  around  teeth 
hardens  into  calculus  (tanar) 
As  It  does  st).  the  gums  begin 
to  pull  awa\  from  the  teeth, 
and  pockets  form  between 
teeth  and  gums  in  time,  this 
can  lead  to  disintegration  of 
gum  tissue  and  bone  to  the 
point  where  teeth  loosen  and 
fall  out.  To  avoid  this  out- 
come, teeth  may  be  subjected 
to  the  standard  treatment  for 
periodontitis  known  as  scaling 
and  root  planing.  It  involves 
first  scraping  the  surface  of  the 
tooth  below  the  gumline. 
Then,  root  planing  removes 
the  bacteria-contaminated  sur- 
face of  the  root  to  clean  and 
make  it  more  acceptable  for 
giun  and  tissue  reattachment. 
We  take  a  comprehensive 
approxh  to  your  dental  health 
and  well-being.  Oral  health  is 
critically  important  to  general 


pearancc  and  self-image.  We 
want  you  to  not  only  have 
strong,  healthy  teeth,  but  to 
look  good  and  feel  good  as 
well.  If  \ou  have  concerns  or 
questions  about  the  well-being 
of  your  teeth  and  gums,  call  us 
nxiay  at  6 17-479-6220.  Please 
don't  let  unwarranted  fears 
keep  you  from  maintaining 
your  dental  health.  Your 
chances  of  needing  extensive 
treatment  in  the  future  because 
of  neglect  today  are  a  far 
greater  concern.  The  key  to 
dental  health  is  routine  preven- 
tive care.  We're  located  at  44 
Greenlcaf  Street,  where  we  are 
currently  accepting  new  pa- 
tients. We  offer  the  services  of 
anesthesiology  with  a  fully 
trained  and  qualified  anesthe- 
siologist Visit  us  on  the  web 
at  www.quincvdenustcom. 

P.S.  Scaling  and  root  plan- 
ing may  be  accompanied  by 
treaOnrnt  with  antibiotics.

(NAPS)  -  Looking  for 
easy  ways  to  boost  your  en- 
ergy every  day?  Try  these 
energizing  tips  to  help  get 
you  through  the  week. 

Monday  -  East  breakfast. 
Adults  who  regularly  eat 
breakfast,  including  cereal, 
feel  better  physically  and 
emotionally  than  adults  who 
don't. 

Tuesday  -  Give  your 
brown-bag  lunch  a  make- 
over. "Make  your  sandwich 
with  the  high-energy  good- 
ness of  whole  grain  bread. 
Complex  carbohydrates  are 
absorbed  more  slowly  for 
longer-lasting  energy,"  says 
Dayle  Hayes.  M.S..  R.D., 
president  of  Nutrition  for  the 
Future. 

Wednesday  -  Be  a  smart 
snacker.  "Enjoy  protein-rich 
nuts  or  cottage  cheese  to  help 
keep  your  energy  up.  To 
power  up  for  a  meeting  or  a 
trip  to  the  gym,  grab  a  car- 
ton of  yogurt  or  half  a  sand- 
wich made  with  lean  meat  or 
poultry."  advises  Patricia 
Bannan,  M.S.,  R.D.,  a  Los 
Angeles-based  nutrition  con- 
sultant  and  expert  for 
HealthETips.com. 


Thursday  -  Plan  for  a 
p.m.  bo(jst.  Maximize  your 
evening  energy  by  cooking 
a  quick  and  colortui  dinner 
stir-fry  with  lean  beef  strips 
and  crunchy  veggies  such  as 
broccoli,  peppers  and  carrot 
slices.  "The  vitamin  C  in  the 
veggies  helps  you  absorb  the 
iron  from  the  beef,"  explains 
Hayes.  "Your  red  blood  cells 
need  that  iron  to  carry  oxy- 
gen to  all  of  your  cells." 

Friday  -  Move  it.  Mov- 
ing your  body  in  a  way  that 
you  enjoy  can  boost  energy 
and  lift  .spirits,  says  Hayes. 
Think  about  activity  as  fun 
rather  than  exercise. 
"Choose  fitness  activities 
that  you  love,  like  dancing  or 
swimming.  Then  you'll  think 
of  the  activity  in  a  positive 
way  and  you'll  be  enthusias- 
tic about  making  fitness  a 
priority." 

Saturday  -  Whip  up  a 
batch  of  muffins  or  a  quick 
bread  for  brunch. 

Sunday  -  Get  enough 
sleep.  At  the  end  of  a  busy 
week,  you  might  want  to 
sleep  a  bit  later  in  the  morn- 
ing or  go  to  bed  earher  to  re- 
charge batteries.  Alcohol, 
caffeine  and  heavy,  high-fat 
meals  may  affect  the  quality 
of  your  sleep.

Red  Raiders  Defeat 
W-H  For  Fifth  Win 


By  SEAN  BRKNNAN 

This  year  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raider  football 
team  is  winning  both  pretty 
and  ugly.  But  the  good  news 
tor  the  program  and  its  fans 
is  the  team  has  the  most  wins 
(five)  in  a  season  since  they 
finished  the  2002  campaign 
with  four  wins. 

Last  Friday  night  at 
Whitman-Hanson  High 
School,  the  Raiders  won  a 
sloppy  game  19-14  to  bring 
their  regular  season  record  to 
5-4  overall  and  4-3  in  the 
Atlantic  Coast  League. 

"At  this  point  in  the  season 
we  are  fortunate  to  be  in  the 
situation  that  we  are  in  (with 
a  5-4  record),"  said  head 
coach  Jim  Connor.  "Good 
things  are  going  our  way,  but 
we  still  have  a  lot  of  work 
that  needs  to  be  done  over  the 
final  two  games.  Against 
Whitman-Hanson,  it  was  a 
sloppy  game  all-around,  but 
once  we  got  back  to  the 
basics,  we  did  enough  to 
come  away  with  the  win." 


FOOTBALL 


In  last  week's  game, 
Whitman-Hanson  scored 
first  against  the  Red  Raiders 
when  running  back  Matt 
Colcough  scored  from  12 
yards  out  late  in  the  opening 
quarter.  The  point  after 
attempt  was  converted  and 
after  one  quarter  of  play  the 
score  was  7-0. 

The  Red  Raiders  would 
do  all  their  scoring  in  a  highly 
entertaining  second  quarter. 
Junior  running  back  Jon 
Cahill  got  North  Quincy  on 
the  board  early  in  the  second 
with  a  four-yard  touchdown 
run  that  capped  off  a  long 
scoring  drive.  The  point  after 
attempt  failed  and  the  score 
was  7-6. 

On  Whitman-Hanson's 
ensuing  possession,  the  Red 
Raider  defense  came  up  with 
the  play  of  the  game.  Taking 
advantage  of  a  fumbled  snap 
on  a  third  down  play  by  W-H 
deep  in  their  own  end  of  the 


field.  North  Quincy 's  Dennis 
Martin  recovered  the  fumble 
and  scored  from  26-yardsout 
to  put  the  Raiders  up  12-7. 

"We  really  took  advantage 
of  the  opportunities  that  came 
to  us  on  defense,"  added 
Connor.  "After  Cahill  scored 
early  in  the  second  quarter, 
our  defense  came  up  big  with 
that  fumble  and  touchdown 
return.  The  difference  in  the 
game  was  that  we  capi  tali  zed 
when  given  the  chance  and 
they  could  not  do  that  against 
us." 

Whitman-Hanson  could 
do  nothing  against  the  Red 
Raider  defense  after  the 
Martin  fumble  return,  and 
when  the  Raiders  got  the  ball 
back,  their  offense  drove  the 
length  of  the  field  for  the 
second  time  in  the  quarter. 

Once  again  it  was  Cahill 
who  put  the  finishing  touches 
on  the  scoring  drive.  He 
scored  from  12-yards  out 
after  taking  the  handoff  from 
Martin  and  running  behind

Presidents  Drop  27-0 
Decision  To  Plymouth  So. 


The  Quincy  Presidents 
were  shutout  by  Plymouth 
South  High  School  27-0  last 
Friday  night.  The  game  was 
played  on  the  road  down  in 
Plymouth. 

The  loss  drops  the  team's 
overall  record  to  2-6  overall 
and  2-5  in  the  Atlantic  Coast 
League.  Plymouth  South, 
with  the  win.  upped  its  record 
to  5-4. 

With  just  one  game  to  go 
before  the  annual 
Thanksgiving  Day 

showdow  n  against  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raiders  (5  4 
overall,  4-3  in  the  ACL),  the 
Presidents  will  look  to  get 
hack  on  the  winning  track 
this  Saturday  against 
Sandwich  High  ScluuW. 
Kickoff  is  scheduled  loi  1 :30 
p.m.  in  SaiidwK'h, 

Against  Plyiiunilh  South. 
Quinc\  could  not  Imd  >i 
defensne  scheme  to  sii>p 
quarterback  Derrick 

Duquette  and  the  high-flying 
Plynu>uth  South  passing 
attack.  In  the  first  quarter. 
Plymouth  South  took  the 
opening  drive  deep  into 
Presidents"  territory  on  the 
strength  of  Duquette's  arm. 
After  driving  into  the 
Presidents'  red/one, 

Plymouth  South  faced  a 
second  and  goal  from  the 
two-yard  line. 

Duquette  took  the  snap 
from  under  center  and  found 
a  wide-o|:)en  Steve  Malcom 
m  the  back  of  the  end  zone 


for  the  early  6-0  lead.  The 
point  after  attempt  was 
successfully  converted  and 
after  one  quarter  of  play. 
Plymouth  South  held  a  7-0 
lead. 

The  second  quarter  was 
more  of  the  same  for  Quincy. 
Unable  to  mo\e  the  ball  on 
the  Plymouth  South  defense. 
the  Presidents  were  forced  to 
punt  the  ball  back,  and 
Duquette  and  the  offense 
once  again  came  through  w  ith 
another  long  sconng  drive 
deep  into  Presidents" 
territory. 

Duquette  connected  with 
Brad  (lirouard  on  a  P-\.irJ 
tc>uchdow  n  pass  on  first  dou  n 
arni  l(>toputPI>niou(hSouth 
up  by  ihiiieon.  The  point  .tt'toi 
attempt  nuidc  tlio  score  at  the 
liall.  14-0. 

The  halt'timo  break  did 
notlung  to  slop  Pl\iiuHith 
South's  momentum,  as  the\ 
came  storming  out  o\  the 
locker  ri>oni  to  start  the 
second  half  and  Duquette  w  as 
once  agaui  at  the  forefront  o\ 
his  team"s  third  long  sconng 
drive  of  the  contest. 

On  a  second  dow  n  pla>  at 
the  Quincy  14-yard  line. 
Duquette  found  Mike  Creed 
open  on  the  left  flat  for  his 
third  touchdow  n  pass  of  the 
evening.  The  14-yard 
touchdown  gave  Plymouth 
South  a  20-0  lead.  The  extra 
point  attempt  was  missed  to 
keep  the  Presidents  dow  n  by 
twenty  with  one  quarter  left 


to  play. 

Duquette  put  the  final  nail 
in  the  coffin,  and  capped  off 
an  impressive  night,  with  a 
65-yard  punt  return  for  a 
touchdown  halfw ay  through 
the  fourth  quarter.  The  big 
special  teams  play  and  the 
successful  PAT  finished  up 
the  scoring  in  the  game,  as 
Quincy  could  never  get  its 
offense  moving  and  could  not 
find  the  end  zone  against  the 
stingy  Plymouth  South 
defense.

Plenty  To  Be  Proud 
For  North  Quiney  Girls 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  Nonh  Quiney  Red 
Raider  girls'  soccer  team  lost 
to  Bishop  Feehan  High 
School  5-2  in  the  first  round 
of  the  Division  I  South 
Sectional  tournament  last 
Sunday,  but  for  a  team  that  at 
one  point  this  fall  had  a  4-7- 
4  record,  making  the  post 
season  for  the  11  th  season  in 
a  row  was  an 
accomphshment  in  itself. 

"We  really  started  playing 
our  post  season  schedule  back 
when  we  were  4-7-4,"  head 
coach  Paul  Bregoli  said.  "At 
that  point  we  needed  to  come 
out  of  every  game  with  at 
least  a  point  and  to  the  girls 
credit,  they  did  just  that.  I  am 
very  proud  of  our  team.  They 
stuck  with  it  when  everyone 
thought  we  didn't  have  a 
chance  and  they  came  up 
big." 

In  the  first  round  game 
against  number  two  seeded 
Bishop  Feehan,  North  fell 
down  early  1  -0  after  Feehan 
converted  a  goal  on  a  missed 
goal  kick  by  the  Raiders.  But 
these  Red  Raiders  w  ould  not 
denied. 

Senior  Mary  Kate  Stille 
gathered  in  a  pass  from  senior 
captain  Emily  Mi  lone  and 
buned  home  the  equalizer 
with  eight  minutes  left  in  the 
first  half 

"Mary  Kate  just  bulldozed 
her  way  towards  the  goal." 


SOCCER 


said  Bregoli,  "and  Milone 
found  her  open  and  she 
scored  the  goal  tying  the  score 
at  1  - 1  entering  halftime" 

North  seemed  primed  for 
the  upset,  when  just  five 
minutes  into  the  second  half 
Stille  scored  her  second  goal 
of  the  game  (10'^  of  the 
season),  off  a  comer  kick 
from  Milone,  but 
unfortunately  for  the  Raiders, 
the  grind  of  the  end  of  the 
regular  season  caught  up  to 
them  quickly. 

Bishop  Feehan  tied  the 
score  at  2-2  just  three  minutes 
after  Stille' s  goal  and  that 
goal  seemed  to  deflate  North 
Quiney.  Feehan  would  later 
go  on  to  score  three  more 
times  in  the  second  half  for 
the  5-2  win. 

"After  Stille  scored  to  put 
us  up  we  were  feehng  good, 
but  there  was  so  much  time 
remaining,"  said  Bregoli. 
"And  when  they  tied  it,  we 
seemed  to  lose  a  step  and 
became  sluggish.  The  girls 
played  hard,  but  we  had 
nothing  left.  We  had  been 
playing  in  eli  mination  games 
for  weeks,  and  it  caught  up  to 
us.  But  these  girls  showed 
character  all  year  long  and 
the  final  score  is  not 
iiidicative  of  the  outcome. 
We  were  in  this  game  to  the 


end." 

Playing  well  against 
Bishop  Feehan  were  Stille, 
Milone,  junior  goalkeeper 
Siobhan  Carnell  and 
freshman  sweeper  Shannon 
Coleman. 

After  making  the  post 
season  on  the  last  day  of  the 
regular  season  in  a  huge  1-0 
win  over  Atlantic  Coast 
League  rival  Dennis- 
Yarmouth,  North  played  a 
preliminary  round  game 
against  Falmouth  High 
School  last  Friday.  The  two 
teams  had  played  to  a  1  -1  tie 
early  in  the  year,  but  this  time 
around  North  would  not  be 
denied. 

Senior  captain  Emily 
Milone,  who  was  moved 
from  her  midfield  spot  to  a 
forward  spot  to  provide  some 
scoring,  netted  her  1 6"'  goal 
of  the  year  after  Stille  had 
won  a  free  ball  in  space.  Stille 
pushed  the  ball  forward  and 
Milone  flicked  the  ball  over 
the  keeper's  head  for  the  1  -0 
lead. 

'That  goal  was  one  that 
only  Emily  could  have 
converted  on,"  said  Bregoli. 
"It  was  a  beautiful  goal  and  it 
got  us  moving  in  the  right 
direction.  The  first  time  we 
played  this  team  we  were 
intimidated  because  we  had 
so  many  young  kids  playing, 
but  this  time  around  they

be  admired  for  how  you  han- 
dled recent  workplace  prob- 
lems, be  careful  not  to  react 
the  same  way  to  a  new  situa- 
tion until  all  the  facts  are  in. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Rely  on  your 
keen  instincts  as  well  as  the 
facts  at  hand  when  dealing 
with  a  troubling  situation.  Be 
patient.  Take  things  one  step 
at  a  time  as  you  work  through 
it. 

SAGITTARIL'S  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Your 
curiosity  leads  you  to  ask 
questions.  However,  the 
answers  might  not  be  what 
you  hoped  to  hear.  Don't 
reject  them  without  checking 
them  out. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  1 9)  Be  careful 
not  to  tackle  a  problem  with- 
out sufficient  facts.  Even 
sure-footed  Goats  need  to 
know  where  they'll  land 
before  leaping  off  a  mountain 
path. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8)  Appearances 
can  be  deceiving.  You  need  to 
do  more  investigating  before 
investing  your  time,  let  alone 
your  money,  in  something 
that  might  have  some  hidden 
flaws. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Your  recent  stand 
on  an  issue  could  make  you 
the  focus  of  more  attention 
than  you  would  like.  But 
you'll  regain  your  privacy,  as 
well  as  more  time  with  loved 
ones  by  week's  end. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
You're  a  good  friend  and  a 
trusted  confidante.  You 
would  be  a  wonderful  teacher 
or  a  respected  member  of  the 
clergy.

ARIES  (March  21  to  .Apnl 

19)  Your  honesty  continues 
to  impress  ever>onc  who 
needs  reassurance  about  a 
project.  But  be  careful  you 
don't  lose  patience  with 
those  who  are  still  not  ready 
to  act. 

T.U'RUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Pushmg  others  too  hard 
to  do  things  your  way  could 
cause  resentment  and  raise 
more  doubts.  Instead,  take 
more  time  to  explain  why 
vour  methods  will  work. 

'  GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20 1  Be  more  considerate  of 
those  close  to  you  before 
makmg  a  decision  that  could 
have  a  serious  effect  on  their 
lives.  Explain  your  intentions 
and  ask  for  their  advice. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  You  might  have  to  defend 
a  workplace  decision  you 
plan  to  make.  Colleagues 
might  back  you  up  on  this, 
but  it's  the  facts  that  will  ulti- 
mately win  the  day  for  you. 
Good  luck. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
The  Big  Cat's  co-workers 
light  not  be  doing  enough  to 
elp  get  that  project  finished, 
'our  roars  might  stir  things 
p,  but  gentle  purrr-suasion

ve. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep-

are  for  needs  help  with  a 
roblem.  Give  it  lovingly  and

Mayor  William  Phelan  was 
in  promising  to  help  w  ith  the

In  the  next  eight  weeks, 
Koch  said  that  he  will  "put

Phelan's  supporters 
gathered  at  Commonwealth

described  his  gratitude  for 
the  opportunity  to  serve  the 
city  for  the  past  eight  years  as 
mayor  and  a  school 
committee  member. 

At  the  restaurant  later, 
Phelan  said,  "This  has  been  a 
fantastic  experience  and  I 
wouldn't  taken  any  of  it  back 
for  a  minute,  even  tonight."

Veterans  Day  Speaker  Urges: 

'Fight  Like  Heck'  For  Our 
Service  Men  And  Women 


On  a  day  set  aside  for 
those  who  fought  in  the 
nation's  wars,  the  featured 
speaker  at  Quincy's  Veterans 
Day  observance  called  on  the 
legacies  of  two  widely  dis- 
similar women  to  support 
her  theme. 

"The  union  activist 
Mother  Jones  once  said, 
'Pray  for  the  dead,  hut  fight 
like  hell  for  the  living,""  said 
Marybeth  O'Sullivan,  a 
commander  in  the  Navy 
Nurse  Corps  and  wife  and 
mother  of  sailors  who  have 


been  deployed  to  Afghani- 
stan and  Iraq. 

"To  be  polite,"  she  added. 
"I  will  use  'heck'  from  here 
on  in." 

And  she  quoted  Mother 
Teresa,  the  nun  who  fought 
poverty  in  Calcutta,  India,  as 
saying,  "The  fruit  of  silence 
is  prayer,  the  fruit  of  prayer 
is  faith,  the  fruit  of  faith  is 
love  is  service,  the  fruit  of 
service  is  peace." 

O'Sullivan  spoke  at  the 
annual  Quincy  Veterans  Day 
parade  and  ceremonies  held 


on  a  chilly  Sunday  morning 
at  the  World  War  I  Doughboy 
Statue  in  front  of  the  Adams 
Academy  building  at 
Hancock  and  Dimmock 
Streets. 

"The  men  and  women 
who  serve  in  our  armed 
forces  make  our  freedom  and 
our  way  of  life  possible,"  she 
said.  "Our  country  is  free  and 
a  better  and  safer  place  be- 
cause of  them.  We  owe  each 
o\'  them  a  debt  of  gratitude

Hes  been  mayor-elect  for 
on.v  a  week  and  he  won"'  be 
mavor  until  Jan.  7  but  al- 
reac'  Tom  Koch  is  making 
pian<  fo,''  drastic  changes  in 
n>'  .'^'.unv  jt  the  Quincy 
Centei  r  one  our.se,  the  cross- 
tou  n  connector  through 
Hancock  Street. 

"We  need  the  roadway." 
he  told  The  Sun  \n  an  inter- 
view Tuesday,  "but  my  ap- 
proach to  the  layout  would 
be  different. 

"There  is  no  need  to  take 
the  Cmema  buildmg  with  all 
its  expense.  The  road  can  be 
accommodated  through  the 
vacant  lot.  It  would  require 
taking  the  Quincy  Legion 
building,  too." 


THOMAS  KOCH 

Members  of  the  post  have 
asked  that  the  building  be 
taken  because  it  would  be  too 
close  to  the  new  roadway. 

There'll  be  a  new  senior 
center  under  the  Koch  ad- 
ministration, but  it  won't  be 
on  the  Merr\  mount  Park  site 


planned  by  outgoing  .Mayor 
William  Phelan

posed to  the  location.  We  are 
going  to  come  up  v,ith  some 
alternatives  We  need  it  tD  be 
on  public  transportation 

"We"ll  put  together  a

former  directors  of  the  Coun- 
cil  on  aging  to  look  at  the  is- 
sue."" 

.And  look  for  Tom  Clasbv. 
who  quit  as  director  of  elder 
services  in  a  dispute  with 
Phelan  over  siting  of  the  se- 
nior center,  to  be  back  in  the

Nominations  Open  For  Sun  'Citizen  Of  Year' 


Nominations  are  now  open  for 
The  Quincy  Sun 's  23rd  annual 
"Citizen  of  the  Year"  award. 

Established  in  1985,  the  award 
recognizes  an  individual  for  out- 
standing community  service  or  a 
special  achievement. 

Last  year,  for  the  first  time 
since  the  award's  inception,  co- 
recipients  were  chosen: 

Patrick  J.  "P.J."  Foley  and 


Vincent  "Vin"  Moscardelli. 

Both  were  selected  for  outstand- 
ing community  service. 

Moscardelli,  a  former  principal 
of  Central  Junior  High  School,  for 
his  generous  support  of  high  school 
and  youth  sports  and  other  worthy 
causes. 

Foley  for  his  environmental  and 
conservation  efforts  and  accom- 
plishments. 


They  were  among  36  nominated 
for  the  award  by  Quincy  Sun  read- 
ers. 

A  panel  of  judges  representing  a 
cross-section  of  the  community 
made  the  final  decision  to  honor 
both  of  them. 

Again  this  year,  Sun  readers  may 
nominate  the  person  they  feel  is  the

Next  City  Council  President 


Davis  Pledgdes  Working 
Relationship  With  Koch 


James  (Jay)  Davis,  who 
will  be  the  new  City  Coun- 
cil president,  pledges  a  close 
working  relationship  with 
Mayor-elect  Tom  Koch. 

"I  am  looking  forward  to 
working  closely  with  Tom 
for  the  best  interests  of  the 
city  and  a  good  city  council- 
mayor  relationship,"  Davis 
said. 

The  Ward  4  Councillor 
put  together  the  necessary 
five  votes  among  colleagues 
Thursday  to  succeed  Ward  5 
Councillor  Doug  Gutro  as 
council  president  in  January. 

Councillor  at-large 
Michael  McFarland  and 


JAY  DAVIS 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  were  interested  in 
the  presidency. 


Davis  first  had  his  own 
vote  and  then,  those  of  Coun- 
cillor at-large  John  Keenan, 
Ward  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee,  Ward  5  Council- 
lor Doug  Gutro,  needing  one 
more.  Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  reportedly  was  the 
fifth  and  clinching  vote. 

The  council  presidency  is 
considered  the  second  most 
powerful  political  post  to  the 
mayor. 

Davis  will  take  office  in 
a  one-year  term  in  January 
and  can  seek  a  second  term. 

Under  council  regulations 
a  council  president  is  limited 
to  two  one-year  terms. 


$132,525  FEMA  Grant  To  Aid 
7  Flood-Prone  Properties 


The  city  has  received  a 
$  1 32,525  FEMA  grant  to  aid 
seven  flood-prone  residential 
properties,  most  of  them  in 
West  Quincy. 

The  federal  funding, 
through  the  Pre-Disaster 
Mitigation  (PDM)  grant  pro- 
gram under  FEMA,  will  be 
used  to  elevate  or  retrofit  the 
properties. 

The  properties  have  al- 
ready been  selected  through 
an  application  process  in- 
volving the  city,  the 
homeowners,  FEMA  and  the 
Massachusetts  Emergency 
Management  Agency. 

Five  of  the  seven  proper- 
ties are  located  in  West 
Quincy  and  are  repeatedly 
affected  by  flooding  around 
Furnace  Brook.  The  other 
two  are  located  in  Houghs 


Neck  and  North  Quincy,  and 
are  repeatedly  affected  by 
coastal  flooding. 

"After  disasters  occur, 
home  repairs  and  reconstruc- 
tion are  typically  completed 
to  restore  damaged  property 
to  pre-disaster  conditions," 
said  Mayor  WiUiam  Phelan. 
"While  such  efforts  expedite 
a  return  to  normalcy,  repli- 
cation of  pre-disaster  condi- 
tions only  result  in  a  cycle  of 
damage,  reconstruction,  and 
repeated  damage.  This  pro- 
gram, however,  will  give 
seven  homeowners  the  op- 
portunity to  break  the  cycle 
of  repetitive  loss." 

Quincy 's  Department  of 
Planning  and  Community 
Development,  under  the  di- 
rection of  Dennis 
Harrington,  will  oversee  this

THE  HISTORY  CHANNE 


•     On     Nov.     14,     1851, 

"Moby-Dick,"  a  novel  by 
HeiTTiaii  Melville  about  the 
voyage  of  the  whaling  ship 
Pequod.  is  pubii.shed. 
"Moby-Dick"  is  now  consid- 
ered a  great  classic  of  Ameri- 
can literature  and  contains 
one  of  the  most  famous 
opening  lines  in  fiction: 
"Call  me  Ishmael."  Initially, 
though,  the  book  about  Cap- 
tain Ahab  and  his  que.st  for  a 
giant  white  whale  was  a  flop. 

•  On  Nov.  15,  1867,  the 

first  .stock  ticker  is  unveiled 
in  New  York  City,  making 
up-to-the-minute  prices 
available  to  investors  around 
the  country.  Prior  to  this, 
information  from  the  New 
York  Stock  Exchange  trav- 
eled by  mail  or  messenger. 

•  On  Nov.,  17,  1925,  Roy 

Harold  Schercr  —  later 
known  as  Rock  Hudson  —  is 
bom  in  Winnetka,  111.  In  the 
late  1940s  and  early  1950s, 
he  frequently  starred  in 
action  films  and  melodra- 
mas, including  "The  Iron 
Man"  (1951).  Hudson  died 
of  AIDS  in  1985.  at  the  age 
of  59. 

•  On  Nov.  12,  1954,  Ellis 
Island,  the  gateway  to  Amer- 
ica, shuts  its  doors  after  pro- 
cessing more  than  12  mil- 


lion immigrants  since  open- 
ing in  1892.  Today,  an  esti- 
mated 40  percent  of  all 
Americans  can  trace  their 
roots  through  Ellis  Island. 

•  On  Nov.  16.  1960,  actor 
Clark  Gable  dies.  Gable 
married  actress  Carole  Lom- 
bard in  1 939,  the  same  year 
he  won  his  greatest  role,  as 
Rhett  Butler  in  "Gone  With 
the  Wind."  Gable  joined  the 
Air  Force  shortly  after  Lom- 
bard's death,  rose  to  the  rank 
of  major  and  won  several 
medals. 

•  On  Nov.  18,  1978,  Peo- 
ple's Temple  leader  Jim 
Jones  leads  hundreds  of  his 
followers  in  a  mass  murder- 
suicide  at  their  agricultural 
commune  in  remote  north- 
western Guyana.  The  final 
death  toll  was  9 1 3 ,  including 
276  children. 

•  On  Nov.  13,  1982,  the 

Vietnam  Veterans  Memorial 
is  dedicated  in  Washington. 
The  long-awaited  memorial 
was  a  simple  V-shaped  black- 
granite  wall  inscribed  with 
the  names  of  the  57,939 
Americans  who  died  in  the 
conflict,  arranged  in  order  of 
death,  not  rank,  as  was  com- 
mon in  other  memorials.

Election  night,  as  you  can  imagine,  was  as  joyous  as 
they  can  come  for  Tom  Koch  and  his  family. 
But  with  a  tinge  of  sadness. 

His  mother,  Simone,  wife.  Christine  and  childien, 
Abigail,  Cornelius  and  Tom,  Jr.  and  other  members 
were  there  with  him  at  the  Cnanite  Links  Golf  Club  to 
celebrate  his  stunning  win  over  Mayor  William  Phelan. 

But  missing  was 
his  father-imd  close 
friend-the  late  Dick 
Koch.  Sr. 

"He  would  have 
loved  being  there." 
Tom  says.  "We 
were  all  thinking  of 
him." 

Dick  preceded  his  son  as  executive  director  of  the 
l^ark.  Forestry  and  Cemetery  Departments. 

He  was  politically  active  and  community  involved  in 
civic  and  other  worthy  causes. 

Seeing  Tom  elected  mayor  would  have  been  one  of 
the  proudest  moments  of  his  life. 

Tom  thought  of  him  during  the  campaign  and  in  the 
last  few  weeks  put  on  his  father's  watch. 

"I  got  the  feeling  he  was  there  with  me,"  says  Tom. 
Anyone  who  knew  Dick  can  picture  him  with  that 
big,  wide  smile  as  the  results  came  in  election  night. 

G 
PHELAN  TURNED  OFF  PEOPLE-some  quite 
influential-with  his  personality  and 
operating  style  as  the  city's  chief 
executive. 

But  after  a  hard-hitting  mayoral 
campaign  he  deserves  credit  for  taking 
his  defeat  like  a  man  and  with 
graciousness. 

He  drove  with  his  wife,  Tracey,  to 
the  Koch  victory  celebration  to  congratulate  him  in 
person  and  in  front  of  the  Koch  supporters  and  tell  him 
he  would  work  with  him  for  a  smooth  transition  of 
administrations. 

Unlike  some  mayoral  battles  of  the  past  when  rivals 
wouldn't  even  speak  to  one  another.  Not  just  election 
night  but  weeks,  months  and  in  at  least  one  case,  years 
after.

YOU  MIGHT  CALL  this  one  "How  Times  Have 
Changed." 

This  year' s  mayoral  race  was  the  most  expensive  one 
in  the  city's  history. 

According  to  their  financial  reports,  Phelan  spent 
$289.6 1 3  and  Koch,  $  1 74.366.  But  those  figures  are  as 
of  Oct.  19.  There  was  some  heavy  spending  between 
then  and  Election  Day.  Those  figures  are  yet  to  be  filed. 
The  final  report  will  dwarf  mayor  campaign  spending 
of  the  past. 

Like  the  one 
Frank  McCauley 
notes  in  his 
"  Q  u  i  n  c  y  '  s

column  one  page 
over. 

That  was  the  1 965  race  between  James  Mclntyre  and 
Joseph  LaRaia  to  succeed  Amelio  Delia  Chiesa  who  did 
not  seek  re-election. 

Mclntyre,  the  winner,  spent  $2,617  and  LaRaia 
$883. 

Peanuts  compared  to  this  year.

CITYWIDE  THE  VOTER  turnout  was  only  44 
percent,  down  from  the  52  percent  expected. 

The  rainy,  raw  Election  Day  and  five  unopposed 
ward  council  seats  were  factors  in  that. 

Ward  1  took  top  honors  with  a  53  percent  turnout. 
Precinct  honors  went  to  perennial  winner  Precinct  5  in 
Ward  6  (Squantum  School)  which  led  the  30  precincts

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


"N 


THIS  IS  A  1930  real  photo  postcard  view  from  the  old 
Quincy  Shore  Drive  bridge  in  Atlantic  looking  south 
toward  the  New  Haven  Railroad's  Atlantic  depot.  This 
coal-fired  steam-powered  local  train  is  on  its  way  to  Bos- 
ton after  picking  up  passengers  at  the  depot,  which  is 
just  beyond  the  end  of  the  train.  The  four  tracks  shown 
here,  known  as  a  four- track-mainline,  allowed  for  high- 
speed express  trains  going  north  or  south  to  pass 
through  while  the  slower  local  trains  stopped  to  pickup 


and  discharge  passengers.  This  was  a  very  short  four- 
track-mainline;  south  of  here  the  New  Haven  had  only 
two  tracks.  Today,  the  old  Atlantic  Depot  is  long  gone, 
but  there  are  once  again  four  tracks  along  this  short 
stretch  although  they  have  different  uses.  Two  tracks 
are  used  by  the  MBTA  Red  Line  and  two  by  the  new 
Old  Colony  railroad.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-mail

Looks  Forward  To  The  Koch  Administration 


Earlier  this  year  before 
anyone  was  thinking  elec- 
tions. Tommy  Koch  held  an 
organizational  meeting  at  the 
Best  West  Adams  Inn. 

The  election  was  months 
off  but  Tommy  knew  to  de- 


feat an  incumbent,  you  must 
start  early  during  field  orga- 
nizing. 

That  night,  the  room  was 
full  of  supporters,  myself  in- 
cluded. Many  felt  it  was  time 
for  change  at  City  Hall. 


Back  in  2001,  I  had  the 
same  feeling  when  1  joined 
the  Phelan  campaign.  The 
year  of  the  1 7-vote  victory. 

Sheets  was  a  good  mayor. 
Phelan  has  been  a  good 
mayor.  Tommy  Koch  will  be 


Why  He  Supported  Tom  Koch 


a  good  mayor. 

1  congratulate  him  for  not 
being  afraid  of  running 
against  an  incumbent  and 
look  forward  to  the  Koch 
City  Hall. 

Sal  Giarratani 
Dorchester 


It  is  the  day  after  the  elec- 
tion and  1  am  compelled  to 
make  an  observation. 

It  is  striking  to  me  that 
folks  are  finally  talking  out 
loud  about  the  management 
problem  in  the  Quincy  Police 
Department,  and  even  then  it 
comes  only  in  the  context  of 
an  article  in  a  local  newspa- 
per concerning  the  Mayor's 
concession  to  Tom  Koch 
[Reference  Patriot  Ledger 
issue  dated  11/07/07 
"Quincy  Mayor  -  Koch  in  an 
Upset"]. 

The  article  contains 
speculation  from  Phelan  sup- 
porter "Freddy  K"  that  the 
rancor  in  Police  Union  and 
the  fallout  from  the 
Teacher's  Strike  may  have 
damaged  Mayor  Phelan 's  re- 
election chances.  (For  the 
record,  I  fully  support  the 
Mayor's  handling  of  the  il- 
legal Teacher's  Strike.) 

However,  for  months  and 
months  no  one  at  City  Hall 
would  even  acknowledge  the 
existence  of  a  problem  be- 
tween the  Patrolman's  Union 
and  the  Command  Staff  of 
the  QPD,  in  particular  Chief 
Robert  Crowley. 

I  freely  admit  that  I  am  a 
frequent  reader  of  the 
Patrolman's  Web  site 
authored  by  Officer  Bruce 
Tail.  I  find  it  entertaining  and 
informative. 

However  I  am  not  naive 
and  know  full  well  there  are 


always  two  sides  to  every 
story. 

Mayor  Phelan's  refusal  to 
even  acknowledge  the  exist- 
ence of  a  serious  morale 
problem  and  legitimate  con- 
cerns about  officer  staffing 
and  safety  in  the  QPD  was 
frustrating  at  best  and  pro- 
foundly arrogant  and  disre- 
spectful to  the  citizens  of 
Quincy  at  worst.  I  suggest 
that  Mayor  Phelan  underes- 
timated the  intelligence  and 
sophistication  of  Quincy 
residents.  I  truly  believe  that 
voters  would  have  thought- 
fully considered  City's  Hall's 
response  to  the  QPD  issues 
if  only  a  response  had  been 
provided!  The  only  response 
was  silence! 

Eventually,  silence  can  be 
reasonably  construed  as 


agreement.  Please  spare  me 
the  knee-jerk  response  that 
the  Mayor's  hands  were  tied 
because  these  were  person- 
nel issues. 

We  are  talking  about  a 
simple  acknowledgment  that 
a  problem  existed  and  a  gen- 
eral description  of  what  the 
Mayor  intended  to  do  to  re- 
solve the  problem.  In  the 
end  it  seemed  as  if  the  Mayor 
decided  that  he  would  tell  us 
only  what  HE  deigned  ap- 
propriate for  us  to  hear.  Ap- 
parently the  Mayor  con- 
cluded that  the  citizens  of 
Quincy  deserved  to  hear 
nothing  about  this  very  real 
public  safety  issue.  (Yes  I 
know  Quincy  is  the  second 
safest  city  in  Massachusetts 
according  to  FBI  statistics. 


notwithstanding  the  dis- 
claimer that  said  statistics 
should  not  be  used  to  reach 
such  a  conclusion.) 

The  Mayor's  deafening 
silence  on  the  QPD  issue 
caused  me  to  analyze  and  re- 
think my  previous  support 
for  him  and  cast  a  more  criti- 
cal eye  upon  the  Mayor's 
other  positions.  (Like  the 
downtown  revitalization 
plan,  which  I  think  will  be  a 
disaster,  and  the  inaction  on 
the  pervasive  flooding  prob- 
lems in  West  Quincy.) 

Ultimately,  I  could  no 
longer  support  Mayor  Phelan 
and  I  voted  for  Tom  Koch. 
The  lesson  here  is  that  si- 
lence is  not  always  golden.

Yesterdays 

1,100  In  Tribute 
To  Delia  Chiesa 
On  Retirement 

By  FRANK  \IcCAllLEY 

"Amolio  Delia  Chiesa  needs  no  monuments  and  wants  none. 
Nor  does  he  even  need  this  testimonial  dinner  tonight,  \'o\  he 
has  received  his  greatest  testimonial  time  and  time  again  at  the 

polls."  «i««.»«_«.»»__i«_i»«i«« 

So  observed  Gov.  John  A.  Voipe 

But  need  a  testimonial  or  not.  Delia 
Ciiiesa  and  his  wife  Evelyn,  were 
honored  by  some  i.lOO  persons,  a 
capacity  crowd  at  the  Surf  Ballroom. 
Nantasket.  '''~'~~-'~—'~'~''™~~'™ 

The  friendship  dinner  marked  Delia  Chiesa'a  impending 
retirement  after  twelve  years  as  Mayor,  eight  under  Plan  A, 
four  under  Plan  E.  He  will  continue,  at  least  through  next  year, 
as  one  of  the  city's  representatives  in  the  General  Court. 

Quincy's  gift  to  the  retiring  mayor  was  a  bronze  tablet 
intended  to  inspire  future  generations  of  the  city's  youth;  the 
tablet  to  be  placed  in  the  Vocational-Technical  School.  The 
tablet  includes  a  bas-relief  portrait  of  Mayor  Delia  Chiesa  and 
an  inscription,  which  reads: 

"A  master  plumber-turned  statesman,  possessed  of  the 
enduring  virtues  of  industry,  honesty,  thrift  and  compassion, 
endowed  with  a  strong  moral  conscience,  with  dignity  and 
dedication,  he  unselfishly  serves  his  people."

Quincy  Animal  Shelter 
Honors  100  Volunteers 


The  Quincy  Animal 
Shelter  (QAS)  recently 
honored  its  100  volunteer 
team  and  dozens  of 
outstanding  volunteers  as  the 
Shelter  team  celebrated  its 
first  eight  years  of  rescuing 
Quincy's  homeless  cats  and 
dogs. 

The  QAS  is  all-volunteer 
organizations  whose 

volunteers  walk  dogs,  cuddle 
cats,  provide  medical  care 
and  find  permanent  homes 
fortheiranimals.  Since  1999, 
thousands  of  homeless  cats 
and  dogs  have  been  rescued 
through  the  efforts  of  QAS 
volunteers. 

The  anniversary  provided 


an  opportunity  to  celebrate 
the  shelter's  success  and  cite 
their  exceptional  members. 

QAS  President  Kit  Burke 
presented  The  President's 
Award  to  longtime  volunteer, 
board  member  and  Feral  Cat 
manager,  Janet  Parisi.  Burke 
described  Parisi's 

contributions  as  "too  great  to 
list.  She  is  truly  a  valued 
volunteer." 

QAS  Interim  Shelter 
Director  Sandra  Morse 
presented  the  Director's 
Award  to  QAS  veteran 
Kathleen  Hefner. 

"Recognizing  Kathleen  is 
long    i)verdue.    She    has 


worked  non-stop  for  eight 
years,  making  sure  our 
animals  get  the  best  medical 
care." 

Newcomer  Eillen  Grund 
was  named  rookie  of  the  year 
and  cited  as  the  shelter's 
MVP  for  her  willingness  to 
help  the  shelter's  charges  in 
every  way. 

More  than  30  other 
longtime  volunteers  were 
also  honored  for  their  hard 
work.  The  shelter  located  at 
56  Broad  St.  is  staffed  by 
volunteers  and  works  with 
the  city's  Animal  Control. 
The  shelter  does  not  receive 
funds  from  the  city.

Public  Safety  Fair  To  Stress 
Preparedness  For  Emergencies 


The  Mayor's  third  annual 
Public  Safety  Fair  will  be 
held  rain  or  shine  from  11 
a.m.  to  2  p.m.,  Sunday  at  the 
Koch  Park  and  Recreation 
Complex,  One  Merrymount 
Parkway. 

The  theme  is  "Prepared, 
Not  Scared." 

At  the  fair,  there  will  be 
free  flu  shots  for  those  over 
18,  an  exhibition  by  the 
Norfolk  County  Sheriff's 
canine  corps,  Quincy 
Medical  Center,  as  well  as 
fire  engines  and  police 
devices  on  display. 

In  addition,  there  will  be 
free  refreshments,  and 
demonstrations  of  the  latest 
public  works  and  safety 
equipment  and  more  than  a 
dozen  tables  or  booths 
sponsored  by  Quincy 
Medical  Center,  city  agencies 
and  private  companies. 

Residents  will  learn  how 
to  stock  their  homes  and 
prepare  themselves  for 
possible  emergencies,  such 
as  flooding  or  fire  or  power 
failure. 

"It's  a  real  family  event," 
said  Deputy  Chief  Gary 
Smyth  of  the  Quincy  Fire 
Department  who  is  on  the 
Safety  Fair  Committee  with 
Health  Commissioner  Drew 
Scheele. 

"We've  had  phenomenal 
success,"  Scheele  said  of  past 
fairs  which  attracted  almost 
1,000  visitors. 

"It's  a  great  opportunity 
for  citizens  to  come  down 
and  see  how  they  can  prepare 
themselves  and  their  families 
for  emergencies,"  said 
Smyth. 

Smyth  also,  noted  that 
residents  will  see  firsthand 
how  well  prepared  Quincy  is 
foremergencies  and  how  well 
the  different  department 
work  together  and 
complement  each  other 

"Don '  t  let  the  weather  stop 
you  from  coming,"  said 
Smyth  who  noted  that  the  flu 
shots  will  be  administered 
inside  the  building  and 
exhibitors  will  be  shielded 
by  tents. 

Scheele  said  that  the  State 
Department  of  Health 
provides  the  flu  vaccine. 
Senior  citizens  over  65  will 
be  asked  to  provide  their

Medicaid  B  cards. 

"We  have  plenty  of  flu 
vaccine,"  Scheele  said, 
noting  all  the  shots  are  free 
for  all  persons. 

Scheele  said  that  the  city 
is  reimbursed  for  the  senior 
citizen  injections  through 
Medicaid.  As  a  result,  he  said, 
"Last  year,  we  put  back  into 
city  (general)  funds  in  excess 
of  $30,000  (from  the  flu 
shots). 

"They  loved  the  canine 
demonstrations,"  Smyth  said 
of  the  children  who  attended 
the  fairs  with  their  families 
and  tested  fire  engines.  The 
trained  dogs  "can  sniff  out  a 
person  or  a  piece  of 
evidence,"  and  their  handlers 


will  exhibit  their  skills  at  the 
fair. 

"Corporate  sponsors  are 
going  to  provide  food  and 
drink,"  Smyth  said  of  the  free 
refreshments  the  day. 

"It's  a  great  opportunity 
for  citizens  to  come  down 
and  see  how  they  can  prepare 
themselves  and  their  families 
for  emergencies,"  said 
Smyth. 

Fair  sponsors  are  Dunkin 
Donuts,  KeySpan,  Quincy 
Credit  Union,  Securita's

the  populations  in  need," 
said  Rep.  Bruce  Ayers. 

"Gov.  Patrick's  health 
care  reform  agenda  has  pro- 
vided our  community  with 
essential  financial  support 
and  the  city  of  Quincy  will 
certainly  benefit  from  it," 
said  Sen.  Michael  Morrissey. 

"The  Quincy  Medical 
Center  and  the  Manet  Com- 
munity Health  Center  are 
great  assets  and  this  money 
will  help  to  subsidize  oper- 
ating costs." 

Starting  in  July,  83  health 
care  providers  across  the 
state  submitted  applications 
for  funding  totaling  $110 
million. 

Dr.  Gary  W.  Gibbons, 


president  and  CEO  of 
Quincy  Medical  Center,  at- 
tributed the  awards  to  the 
Quincy  centers  to  the  lead- 
ership and  commitment  of 
Morrissey  and  Ayers  as  well 
as  Reps  Stephen  Tobin  and 
Ron  Mariano. 

"We  understand  that  re- 
sources are  tight  and  more 
help  was  being  requested 
statewide,  so  this  was  not  an 
easy  task,"  he  said. 

Toni  McGuire,  chief  ex- 
ecutive officer  of  the  Manet 
Community  Health  Center, 
said  the  grant  "allows  us  to 
take  the  first  steps  toward  an 
electronic  patient  system  that 
will  enhance  our  primary 
care  communication  and 
quality."

Dear  Friends  and  Supporters, 

It  is  with  nnuch  gratitude  that  I  thank  you  for  your 
support  throughout  my  campaign  for  Quincy  City 
Counci  lor-at-I^rge. 

Despite  the  fact  that  we  did  not  win  a  seat  in  the  2007 
election,  in  my  eyes  our  campaign  was  victorious  in 
many  ways.  We  rallied  the  community  together, 
raised  awareness  throughout  the  city,  built  an 
amazing  team,  and  forged  friendships  that  will  last  a 
lifetime.  These  are  accomplishments  we  can  all  be 
very  proud  of. 

It  is  thanks  to  all  of  you  that  we  were  able  to 
accomplish  so  much  in  such  a  short  time.  It  is  a  true 
testament  to  the  fact  that  when  a  community  gets 
together  and  works  toward  a  common  goal,  great 
things  can  happen. 

1  hope  that  we  can  ail  take  to  heart  the  tremendous 
value  of  community  involvement,  and  continue  to  put 
our  best  foot  forward  for  Quincy  throughout  the  year. 

Please  stay  in  touch. 


Thank  you  and  God  Bless.

Council  on  Aging,"  said 
Koch. 

The  new  mayor  of 
Quincy  may  best  be  de- 
scribed as  a  man  knows  what 
he  wants  but  will  take  time 
to  study  and  determine  how 
to  get  it. 

James  "Jimmy"  Fatseas, 
a  North  Quincy  native  who 
is  a  retired  senior  executive 
of  Merrill  Lynch,  will  head 
his  transition  team  and  later 
he  his  chief  of  staff. 

The  rest  of  the  team? 

"We're  Just  putting  it  to- 
gether right  now, '  said  Koch. 
"We've  been  talking  to  the 
current  administration.  The 
mayor  has  been  very  gra- 
cious. He  has  been  working 
with  us.

Bowes  will  co-chair  the  in- 
auguration committee." 

Bowes  is  the  new  mayor's 
elder  sister. 

After  that,  the  new  mayor 
was  candid  but  vague  on  spe- 
cific plans. 

"My  two  top  agenda 
items  are  traffic  and  drugs," 
he  said. 

"I  plan  to  put  the  empha- 
sis on  a  traffic  plan  for  the 
city.  I'll  take  a  look  at  the 
current  setup.  There  may  be 
some  changes. 

"I'll  tackle  the  drug  prob- 
lem but  first  I'll  meet  with 
the  leaders  of  the  different 
agencies,  like  the  police. 
Congressman  Bill  Dclahunt, 
a  former  DA,  can  be  help- 
ful." 

Next  question  .  .  . 

The  crisis  of  the  day  in 
city  government  every- 
where, one  that  may  have 
played  a  major  role  in 
Phelan's  defeat,  is  how  much 
the  city  is  willing  to  pay  for 
its  employees'  benefits, 
namely  health. 

"Health  care  is  a  tough 
one,"  said  Koch.  "I  plan  to 
sit  down  with  the  union  lead- 
ership in  good  faith  negotia- 
tions. They  know  they  will 
not  get  everything  on  their 
wish  list. 

"The  union  leaders  can 
see  it  is  in  the  best  interest  of 
everyone  to  keep  the  cost 
down.  We  should  be  able  to 
come  up  with  a  plan  that's 


fair  to  the  taxpayers  and  the 
employees." 

Koch  said  he  plans  an 
early  meeting  with  state  of- 
ficials, the  school  superinten- 
dent and  the  School  Commit- 
tee "to  make  sure  the  new 
Quincy  High  School  is  on  the 
right  track." 

"My  goal  is  to  come  in 
under  budget,"  he  said. 

Koch  called  the  cost  of 
government  "always  a  chal- 
lenge. I'm  going  to  make 
sure  we  operate  as  efficiently 
as  possible  to  ease  the  bur- 
den on  the  taxpayers. 

"Obviously,  we'll  seek 
more  federal  and  state  grants, 
I'm  going  to  talk  to  our  leg- 
islative delegation  about  that. 
We'll  look  at  having  a  grant 
writer,  too,  inavbe  a  head 
writer  or  the  appropriate 
people  in  the  departments." 

The  long-standing  feud 
between  Police  Chief  Robert 
Crowley  and  the  Patrolmen's 
Union  is  another  chronic 
problem  that  needs  to  be 
settled. 

"Leadership  comes  from 
the  mayor's  office,"  said 
Koch.  "The  Police  Depart- 
ment has  had  a  couple  of 
tough  years. 

"I  plan  to  exercise  lead- 
ership on  this.  Nothing  spe- 
cific at  this  time.  I  intend  to 
take  a  look  at  things. 

"We  will  make  the  most 
informed  decisions  we  can. 
That's  part  of  the  business."

Beechwood  Senior  Center 
Seeking  Program  Volunteers 


Beechwood  Senior  Center 
is  seeking  "Rocking 
Nannies"  and  handymen  and 
lunch  helpers  and  a  host  of 
other  volunteers  with  other 
expertise  tor  the  center' s  new 
expanded  programs. 

"We  have  welcomed 
increasing  numbers  ot  senior 
participants  throughout  the 
summer  and  are  hoping  to 
provide  new  and  expanded 
activities  this  Fall."  said 
Senior  Center  Coordinator 
Maryann  Mahony. 

However,  the  Senior 
Center's  budget  has  been 
stretched  thin  as  leaders 
enlarge  their  programs  to 
accommodate  the  rising 
membership,  Mahony  said, 


when  outlining  the  need  lor 
more  volunteers. 

"We  are  a  private, 
charitable  organization  and 
have  a  very  small  budget  for 
our  Senior  Center.  That's  the 
bad  news!  The  good  news  is 
the  wonderful  caring  folk 
help  us,  as  volunteers."  said 
Mahony 

"First  time  visitors  are 
always  surprised  to  see  our 
wide  range  of  programs  and 
activities!"  Mahony 

continued,  adding. 

"Wonderful  volunteers  make 
it  possible.  We  have  many 
volunteer  positions.  Some 
volunteers  work  one  day  a 
week,  t)thers  more.  Some 


work  two  hours  a  visit  and 
others  more." 

At  this  time,  the  Center 
needs  volunteers  in  seven 
categories:  I .  Arts  &  Crafts; 
2.  Lunch  Program;  3. 
Outdoor  Recreation;  4. 
Knitting  and  Crocheting 
instruction;  5.  "Rocking 
Nannies  who  volunteer  help 
in  the  center's  Infant  Room; 
6.  Children's  Outdoor 
Classrot)ms;  7.  Center 
Handyman  tasks. 

A  volunteer  orientation 
and  social  is  planned  for 
November. 

For  more  information  or 
to  volunteer,  call  Mahony  at 
617-471-5712.

FIRE   SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Unvented  Portable  Space  Heaters 


I  was  thinking  over  the 
weekend  about  the  price  of 
a  barrel  of  oil  now  approach- 
ing $100,  and  the  potential 
negative  impact  this  fact  has 
on  residential  life  safety. 

I  am  concerned  that  there 
might  be  a  temptation  for 
some  to  unlawfully  use 
unvented  portable  space 
heaters  as  a  substitute  means 
of  heating  a  home  or  portion 
of  a  home.  Consequently,  I'd 
like  to  pass  along  some  in- 
formation here  hoping  to 
avert  any  winter  tragedy. 

This  State  mandates  that 
unvented  portable  space 
heaters  shall  not  be  used  in  a 
"building  used  in  whole  or  in 
part  for  human  habitation." 
This  law  refers  to  those  kero- 
sene and  propane  fired  heat- 
ers that  are  portable  and  not 
adequately  vented  to  the  out- 
side. The  key  word  in  de- 
scribing our  concern  is 
unvented. 


Both  the  propane  and  oil 
fired  space  heaters  we're  dis- 
cussing here  produce  the 
same  asphyxiant  gases  such 
as  carbon  monoxide  and  car- 
bon dioxide  that  can  render 
an  individual  incapacitated 
or  dead. 

Being  unvented,  and  if 
used  inappropriately  within 
a  confined  habitable  space, 
these  asphyxiant  gases  are 
left  to  circulate  within  the 
confined  space  you're  at- 
tempting to  heat.  Conse- 
quently, the  oxygen  within 
the  space  is  consumed  by  the 
combustion  process  of  the 
heater  and  replaced  by  the 
dangers  of  asphyxiant  gases. 
Portable  unvented  space 
heaters  are  therefore  danger- 
ous if  used  incorrectly. 

If  you  must  use  a  space 
heater  in  a  habitable  space 
such  as  your  home,  make 
certain  that  it  is  electric. 
Look  for  UL  approval,  and 


place  it  on  a  firm  surface  a 
minimum  of  three  feet  from 
combustibles.  The  heater 
should  not  be  left  unat- 
tended, it  should  be  kept 
away  from  water,  and  if  an 
extension  cord  is  used,  make 
certain  that  it  is  not  frayed  or 
faulty  and  is  appropriate  for 
the  electrical  load  required. 

With  the  rising  cost  of  oil, 
space  heater  use  will  tend  to 
increase.  Use  of  electric 
space  heaters  appears  to  be 
quite  common  with  seniors 
who  are  particularly  proven 
to  be  to  be  particularly  vul- 
nerable to  fire  within  a  home. 
This  fact  and  this  combus- 
tion make  proper  use  of  elec- 
tric space  heaters  imperative. 

Meanwhile,  do  not  be 
tempted  to  complement  your 
household  heating  efforts 
with  an  unvented  portable 
fuel  space  heater  within  a 
confined  habitable  space. 

The  consequences  can  be 
deadly.  Thank  you.

Turkey  Frozen?  Go  Ahead 
and  Cook  It,  Expert  Says 


If  you're  in  charge  of  cook- 
ing the  Thanksgiving  turkey, 
you  may  not  have  to  plan  as 
far  ahead  as  you  thought  you 
did.  according  to  Iowa  State 
Lniversily  Extension  food 
science  specialist  Sam  Beat- 
tie. 

"Cooking  a  fro/cn  turkey 
is  an  acceptable  und  safe 
way  to  go,"  Beattic  said. 
"The  advantage  to  cooking  a 
fully  frozen  turkey  is  that  the 
frozen  juices  do  not  con- 
tribute to  cross  contamina- 
tion issues  in  the  kitchen." 

A  13-  to  1.5-pound  turkey 
will  take  about  3  1/2  hours  to 
cook  from  the  frozen  .state  in 
a  325  F  oven.  The  giblets 
and  neck  can  be  removed 
after  about  2  hours  of  cook- 
ing. 

"T]^e  key  requirement  is 
using  a  themiometer  to 
make  sure  the  temperature 
reaches  at  least  165  F,"  Beat- 
tie  said.  ".At  that  tempera- 
ture, some  of  the  meat  may 
still  be  pinkish  but  it  is  safe 
tu  eat  according  to  U.S. 
Department  of  .Agriculture 
tests." 

Traditional  instructions 
have  recommended  cooking 
poultry  to  1 80  F  until  recent 
I JSDA  tests  showed  that  165 
F  was  sufficient.  The  Turkey 
Federation  continues  to  rec- 
ommend 1 80  F  because  this 
ensures  that  the  meat  is  no 
longer  pink,  yet  will  remain 
juicy. 

"The  higher  temperature 
also  makes  the  turkey  easier 
to  carve,"  Bcattie  said.  "As 
always  and  regardless  of  the 


way  it  was  cooked,  letting 
the  cooked  turkey  rest  for 
one-half  hour  will  improve 
the  flavor  because  some  of 
the  juices  get  reabsorbed." 

Safe  focxl  handling  after 
the  big  meal  also  is  impor- 
l;mt. 

"Crammed  refrigerators 
make  for  poor  cooling 
because  of  reduced  air  flow 
around  the  items."  Bcattic 
said.  "Putting  leftovers  in 
several  smaller  containers 
instead  of  one  or  two  larger 
bowls  also  helps  cool  foods 
faster." 

When  storing  leftovers, 
food  safety  experts  recom- 
mend that  the  temperature  of 
hot  food  should  drop  below 
70  F  within  two  hours  after 
placing  into  the  refngerator. 
Warm  or  hot  foods  should 
not  be  allowed  to  sit  on  the 
couniertop  until  they  reach 
room  temperature  before 
being  refrigerated. 

"Ideally,  the  food  should 
remain  above  1 .30  F  until  it  is 
placed  mto  the  refrigerator 
and  then  it  should  cool  to 
below  70  F  in  two  hours  and 
below  40  F  in  another  4  to  6 
hours."  Beatlie  said. 

"Tlic  major  illness-causing 
bacteria  in  cooked  meat  and 
gravies  slows  its  growth  at 
around  70  F  and  docs  not 
reproduce  well  below  this 
temperature,"  Bcattie  said. 
"Frequent  handwashing  as 
well  as  using  paper  towels 
also  helps  reduce  the  risk  of 
foodbomc  illness  spoiling 
your  holiday  festivities."

What  Boomers  Should  Know 


Parents  Considering  A  Reverse  Mortgage? 


By(;KOR(;KM. 
DeMKI.LO 

Senior  Vi(  <■  Prt'.sicJcnl 
ResUUnluil  Lendinj^. 

lUiiik  of  ('(inloii 
As  icHliiy's  bahy-b(H)nicrs 
.iiul  I'c  lio-boomers  begin 
pLiiimiii:  loi  then  own  iviirc

M'Kes  Lonsidcrini;  not  onl) 
ilicir  own  iMKincial  wi-ll  be- 
in;:,  bill  then  parcnis"  as  well. 
Wiiile  MKiny  boomers  and 
ei^ho-booniers  may  not  yet 
quahly  loi  speeial  morli'age 
opportunities,  then  parents 
certainly  do.  and  Re\erse 
Mortgages  present  tremen 
dons  benefits.   The  eoneern 
lot  mans  lemling  institutions 
is  that  not  ein>ugh  o\  this 
market  segment  lully  uniier 
sttiniis  then  options. 

According  to  a  recent 
Harris  Interactive  Poll.  64 
percent  ol  adults  are  aware 
that  Reverse  Mortgages  ex- 
ist. More  than  halt  of  tho.se 
adults  surveyed,  however,  do 
not  understand  how  Reverse 
Mortgages  work  and  less 
tiian  two  percent  ol  thi^se 
cuirently  eligible  lor  a  Re- 
verse Mortgage  have  actu- 
ally taken  advantage  ol"  the 
oppoilunity.    With  more  in- 
stitutions now  offering  and 
marketing  Reverse  Mort- 
gages to  seniors,  it  is  iikmc 
important  than  ever  to  know 
and  understand  this  new 
product  so  you  can  advise 
your  parents  regarding  their 
options  and  perhaps  adjust 
your  own  future  financial 
and  retirement  plans. 
So  what  is  a 
Reverse  Morljjajie? 
A  Reverse  Mortgage  is  a 
home  equity  liKin  that  alU>w  s 
seniors  62  and  older  to  con- 
vert some  of  the  equity  ac- 
crued in  their  home  into  cash 
while  still  living  there.  A 
Reverse  Mortgage  works 
like  a  traditional  mortgage, 
only  in  reverse.  Instead  of  the 
borrower  making  payments 
to  a  lender,  the  lender  makes 
payments  to  the  borrower.  It 
can  be  paid  out  in  a  lump 
sum  or  in  monthly  install- 
ments. Your  parent(s)  can 
use  the  money  for  anything, 
including  medical  expenses, 
credit  card  debt,  living  ex- 
penses, travel  or  home  repair. 
Who  qualifies  for  a 
Reverse  Mortgage? 
Applicants  must  be  at 
least  62  years  of  age  and  own 
their  own  home. 

What  other 
''  restrictions  apply? 

The  home  must  be  the 
applicant's  primary  resi- 
dence. If  there  is  an  existing 
mortgage  on  the  home,  the 
lender  will  require  that  part 
of  the  Reverse  Mortgage  be 
used  to  pay  off  the  balance. 
In  addition,  if  the  home  is  in 


need  of  repairs,  money  must 
also  be  set  aside  for  this  pur- 
pose. 

Although  It  is  not  a  long- 
term  restriction,  we  ask  our 
seniors  to  determine  if  they 
w  ish  to  remain  in  their  home 
since  a  Reverse  Mortgage 
may  not  make  financial 
sense  if  they  wish  to  sell  the 
home  in  the  near  future. 
VV  hat  is  the  process 

of  getting  a 
Reverse  Mortgage? 
Knowleilge  is  a  priority  at 
Hank  ol  ("anton.  and  we 
want  to  provide  (uir  clients 
with  as  much  inlormation  as 
possible  to  help  them  make 
the  best  decision.  We  also 
ask  them  to  bring  a  trusted 
family  member,  lawyer  or 
financial  planner  with  them 
to  help  them  make  this  im- 
portant financial  decision. 

Pros|)ective  clients  meet 
with  a  Reverse  Mortgage 
specialist  to  di.scuss  what  a 
Reverse  Mortgage  is,  how 
much  they  can  borrow,  the 
closing  costs  involved  and, 
finally,  if  a  Reverse  Mort- 
gage is  right  for  them.  (The 
amount  of  money  your 
parent(s)  can  borrow  gener- 
ally depends  on  their  age,  the 
home's  value  and  location, 
the  type  of  Reverse  Mort- 
gage they  choose,  and  the 
closing  costs  and  other  fees 
associated  with  that  type  of 
loan.) 

Finally,  all  clients  arc  re- 
quired to  piuticipate  in  a  Re- 
verse Mortgage  counseling 
session  w  ith  an  independent. 


government-certified  coun- 
seling agency  either  in-per- 
son  or  over  the  phone  to  dis- 
cuss their  particular  situation 
in  detail  before  they  are  al- 
lowed to  take  on  a  Reverse 
Mortgage. 

When  must  the  Reverse 
Mortgage  be  repaid? 
The  Reverse  Mortgage 
loan  is  due  and  payable  when 
the  homeowner  sells  his  or 
her  property  or  no  longer 
occupies  the  property  as  a 
primary  residence.  Although 
there  has  been  much  contro- 
versy around  the  issue  of 
whether  or  not  the  home- 
owner is  actually  selling  the 
home  to  the  lending  institu- 
tion, this  is  NOT  the  case. 

For  example,  if  your  par- 
ents were  to  sell  their  prop- 
erty, they  would  use  a  por- 
tion of  the  sale  to  pay  off  the 
equity  they  borrowed.  Simi- 
larly, if  you  or  your  siblings 
are  to  inherit  the  home  and 
later  sell  it,  you  would  have 
to  u.se  a  portion  of  the  sale 
price  to  repay  the  equity  bor- 
rowed on  the  home.  If  you 
or  your  siblings  would  like 
to  live  in  the  home,  you 
could  then  take  out  a  "for- 
ward" mortgage  to  cover  the 
Reverse  Mortgage  loan. 

What  are  the  potential 
risks  and  benefits? 
We  make  it  a  priority  at 
Bank  of  Canton  for  our  cli- 
ents to  understand  exactly 
what  they  are  undertaking 
when  applying  for  a  Reverse 
Mortgage.  For  example,  not 
many  prospective  clients  un-

dcrstand  that  the  interest  on 
a  Reverse  Mortgage  loan  is 
compounded  (meaning  that 
interest  is  being  paid  on  both 
the  outstanding  principal  and 
the  interest  which  accrues 
each  month).  This  com- 
pt)unded  interest  causes  an 
incieasing  portion  of  the  out- 
standing equity  in  the  home 
to  be  used  to  cover  interest 
over  time.  For  this  reason, 
we  ask  t>ur  seniors  to  boiTow 
exactly  what  they  need  to 
supplement  their  income  in 
advance,  so  they  don't  end 
up  paying  interest  on  money 
they  don't  need. 

Why  are  Reverse 

Mortgages  becoming 
popular? 

Reverse  Mortgages  are  an 
attractive  option  for  senior 
citizens  who  would  like  to 
retire,  but  find  themselves 
"house  rich  and  cash  poor." 
As  77  million  baby  boomers 
begin  reaching  retirement 
age,  many  ask  themselves, 
"Am  I  ready?"  Many  ana- 
lysts suggest  that,  with  con- 
cerns about  insufficient  ben- 
efits for  retirees  and  under- 
funded federal  government 
entitlement  programs  that 
will  soon  be  overwhelmed 
by  ballooning  demand.  Re- 
verse Mortgages  are  about  to 
become  more  popular. 

According  to  the  National 
Center  for  Policy  Analysis, 
by  2030,  the  midpoint  of 
baby  boomers'  retirement 
years,  the  federal  govern- 
ment will  either  have  to 
double  social  security  tax 


rates  or  halve  all  retirement 
benefit  payments.  Addition- 
ally, federal,  state  and  local 
governments  have  $5  trillion 
in  future  benefit  obligations 
promised  to  civil  service 
workers,  and  American  cor- 
porations owe  $450  billion  in 
pension  and  $350  billion  in 
post-ietirement  health  care 
benefits,  all  of  which  are  un- 
der-funded. Many  financial 
institutions  are  now  offering 
Reverse  Mortgages  because 
they  foresee  this  product  as 
a  valuable  tool  to  boomers 
who  may  not  have  "planned 
ahead"  and  saved  enough  in 
private  retirement  funds  to 
cover  shortfalls  in  govern- 
ment- or  employer-funded 
entitlement  benefits. 

Reverse  Mortgages  offer 
an  excellent  alternative  for 


free  retirement.  But,  as  with 
any  major  financial  decision, 
caution  must  be  exercised.  In 
the  case  of  Reverse  Mort- 
gages, in  particular,  self- 
knowledge  and  good  plan- 
ning are  the  keys  to  success. 
Learn  as  much  as  you  can 
about  this  option;  ask  ques- 
tions of  your  lender;  ask  oth- 
ers who  you  trust.  Your 
goal... and  our  goal  for 
you... IS  a  financially  stable, 
hassle-free  retirement  for 
both  you  and  your  parents.

^Sicirs 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  Your  work  requires 
increased  effort  during  the 
next  few  days.  But  it  will  all 
pay  off  down  the  line.  Things 
ease  up  in  time  for  weekend 
fun  with  family  and/or 
friends. 

TAmUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Your  genuine  concern  for 
others  could  prompt  you  to 
promise  more  than  you  can 
deliver.  It's  best  to  modify 
your  plans  now,  before  you 
wind  up  overcommitted  later. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  A  situation  that  seems 
simple  at  first  glance  needs  a 
more  thorough  assessment 
before  you  give  it  your  OK. 
Dig  deeper  for  information 
that  might  be  hidden  from 
view. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Careful:  Right  now, 
things  might  not  be  quite 
what  they  appear.  Even  the 
intuitive  Crab  could  misread 
the  signs.  Get  some  solid 
facts  before  you  act  on  your 
suspicions. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Your  energy  levels  are  high, 
allowing  you  to  complete 
those  unfinished  tasks  before 
you  take  on  a  new  project.  A 
social  invitation  could  come 
from  an  unlikely  source. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  You  might  think 
you're  helping,  but  unless 
you're  asked  for  a  critique, 
don't  give  it.  If  you  are  asked, 
watch  what  you  .say.  Your 
words  should  be  helpful,  not 
hurtful. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Your  attempt  at 
mediating  disputes  might 
meet  some  opposition  at  first. 
But  once  you're  shown  to  be 
fair  and  impartial,  resistance 
soon  gives  way  to  coopera- 
tion. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Go  ahead. 
Reward  yourself  for  helping 
settle  a  disturbing  workplace 
situation.  On  another  note:  A 
personal  relationship  might 
be  moving  to  a  higher  level. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21)  A 
sudden  change  of  heart  by  a 
colleague  might  create  some 
momentary  uncertainty.  But 
stay  with  your  original  deci- 
sion and,  if  necessary,  defend 
it. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Rely  on  a 
combination  of  your  sharp 
instincts  along  with  some 
really  intense  information- 
gathering  to  help  you  make  a 
possibly  life-changing  deci- 
sion. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  1 8 1  Instead  of  wor- 
rying if  that  new  p»erson  in 
your  life  will  stay  or  leave, 
spend  all  that  energy  on 
strengthening  your  relation- 
ship so  it  becomes  walk-out 
resistant. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  A  sudden  finan- 
cial dry  spell  could  reduce 
your  cash  flow  almost  to  a 
trickle.  But  by  conserving 
more  and  spending  less, 
you'll  get  through  the  crunch 
in  good  shape. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
Your  ability  to  keep  secrets 
makes  you  the  perfect  confi- 
dante for  friends,  family  and 
co-workers.

Holiday  Weight  Gain  Is  Not  Inevitable 


By  some  estimates,  U.S. 
adults  can  gain  up  to  10 
pounds  between  Thanksgiv- 
ing and  New  Year's  Day  by 
splurging  on  foods  they 
might  otherwise  avoid  or  cat 
in  moderation  throughout 
the  rest  of  the  year.  Howev- 
er, experts  say  the  trend  is 
avoidable,  and  there  arc  sev- 
eral  simple   steps   holiday 


•  Aim  to  fill  half  your  plate 
with  vegetables  —  and  go 
easy  on  the  sauces  and 
dressings. 

•  Drink  cider  instead  of 
eggnog  or  choose  non- 
caloric  beverages. 

•  Use  fat-free  sour  cream 
and  cream  cheese  when 
preparing  dips. 

•  Use  whipped  butter  or 
low-caloric  tub  margarines. 

•  Substitute  chicken  stock 
for  buncr  when  makmg 
gravy  and  stuffing. 

•  Enjoy  the  pic  filling  — 
leave  the  cru.st. 

•  Try  raw  vegetables 
in.stcad  of  tortilla  chips  with 
dips. 

•  Enjoy  favorite  foods,  but 
limit  portion  sizes. 

•  Use  a  smaller  plate  to 
control  portions. 


revelers  can  take  to  prevent 
weight  gain. 

Helen  Thompson,  a  regis- 
tered dietitian  and  director 
of  the  Colorado  chapter  of 
America  on  the  Move,  .says 
anyone  watching  their 
weight  should  aim  to  cut  1 00 
calories  from  their  daily  diet 
and  add  2,000  steps  (1  mile) 
to  their  day,  a  moderate 
walking  activity  that  can  be 
completed  in  15  to  20  min- 
utes. 

"These  two  steps  alone  can 
improve  people's  overall 
health  and  help  them  avoid 
the  weight  gain  usually 
associated  with  the  .season," 
said  Thompson,  who  works 
at  the  Center  for  Human 
Nutrition  at  the  University 
of  Colorado  at  Denver. 

Thompson  and  her  col- 
league, Elizabeth  Kealey, 
also  a  registered  dietitian  at 
the  CU  Center  for  Human 
Nutrition,  have  come  up 
with  practical  tips  to  help  the 
health  conscious  cut  100 
calories  from  their  diets  and 
stay  on  track  through  the 
holiday  .season: 

•  Snack  on  raw  vegetables 
while  cooking. 

•  Drink  a  tall  glass  of  water 
before  eating. 


Tips  for  adding 
more  steps  to  your 
day: 

•  On  shopping  trips, 
park  farther  away  from 
the  mall. 

•  Take  advantage  of 
winter  activities  during 
days  off.  Take  the  kids 
sledding. 

•  Wear  a  pedometer  to 
monitor  your  steps. 
Aim  for  7,000  or  more 
total  steps  a  day. 

•  Even  though  sched- 
ules are  busier,  try  to 
maintain  your  usual 
exercise  routine. 

•  Get  your  exercise  in 
early  —  before  your 
day  fills  up. 


•  Eat  a  light  snack  to  curb 
your  hunger  before  going  to 
a  party. 

•  Position  yourself  away 
from  the  holiday  buffet 
table. 

•  Talk  more,  eat  less. 

As  for  exercise,  Kealey 
said  the  holiday  season  is  a 
great  time  to  create  new  tra- 
ditions such  as  walks  around 
the  neighborhood  to  view 
holiday  decorations,  tag 
football  and  other  active 
games,  or  power  walking  at 
malls  while  doing  post- 
Christmas  shopping.

Bnixism,  the  medical  term      iirimi  their  teeth  If  you  suspect 


for  the  grinding  of  tccih  or  the 
clenching  on  jaw.s.  is  coiimion 
among  young  children    In 
fact,  three  out  ot  every  ten 
children   are   grinders   or 
denchers.  In  most  cases,  the 
culprit  is  thought  to  be  stress, 
usually  nervous  tension  or 
anger  On  the  other  hand,  in 
some  cases  bruxism  is  related 
to  a  child's  growth  and  devel- 
opment. Some  children  grind 
their  teeth  because  the  top  and 
bottom  teeth  are  not  properly 
aligned.  As  a  result,  in  some 
extreme  circumstances,  night- 
time grinding  and  clenching 
can  wear  down  tooth  enamel, 
chip  teeth,  increase  tempera- 
ture sensitivity,  and  cause  se- 
vere facial  pain  and  jaw  prob- 
lems. If  so,  proper  diagnosis 
and  treatment  with  a  night 
guard  can  help. 

Because  grinding  often 
occurs  during  sleep,  most 
people  are  unaware  that  they

Elevate  Your  Eye  Care 

Tips  To  Maximize  Contact  Lens  Safety 


(NAPS)  -  Many  contact 
lens  wearers  regard  their 
contact  lenses  as  consumer 
products  that  can  be 
purchased  and  used  with  as 
inuch  thought  and 
consideration  as  toothpaste, 
sunscreen  and  other  health 
and  beauty  items.  However, 
it  is  iinportant  to  understand 
that  contact  len.ses  are,  in  fact, 
medical  devices  and  should 
be  used  with  the  same  care 
and  consideration  as  other 
medical  products.  To  remind 
contact  lens  wearers  about 
the  importance  of  contact  lens 
care,  eye  care  professionals 
are  encouraging  people  who 


wear  contact  lenses  to  "get 
back  to  the  basics." 

"We  need  to  let  the  public 
know  that  there  is  new 
standard  of  care  for  soft 
contact  lenses,  with  the 
important  goal  of  preventing 
infection  and  promoting  eye 
health,"  said  Joe  Shovlin, 
OD,  from  Scranton,  Penn., 
one  of  the  eye  doctors 
participating  in  an  awareness 
campaign  called  Elevate 
Your  Eye  (EYE)  Care. 

Based  on  his  involvement 
in  the  EYE  cainpaign.  Dr. 
Shovlin  offers  five  tips  for 
lens  wearers:

Keeping  Fit 
Over  the  Holidays 

As  the  hoUday  season 
approaches,  not  only  do  the 
days  get  shorter,  but  so  does 
the  amount  of  time  you  can 
dedicate  to  your  fitness  pro- 
gram. Keeping  a  realistic 
and  effective  fitness  routine 
during  the  busy  holiday  sea- 
son can  be  challenging.  But 
there  is  hope!  With  plan- 
ning and  some  minor 
changes,  you  can  enjoy  a  fit 
and  guilt-free  holiday. 

•  Set  realistic  goals.  Set- 
ting a  goal  of  losing  body 
fat,  gaining  muscle  or  train- 
ing for  a  marathon  during 
one  of  the  busiest  times  of 
the  year  can  be  self-defeat- 
ing. Switch  to  a  mainte- 
nance plan  if  you  know 
your  schedule  and  responsi- 
bilities will  change  during 
the  holiday  season.  When 
your  schedule  returns  to 
normal,  your  body  will  be 
ready  to  kick  back  into  high 
gear. 

•  Plan  ahead.  Anticipate 
the  change  in  schedule  and 
priorities  you  will  face  as 
the  holidays  approach. 
Modif\'  or  condense  your 
workouts  to  receive  the 
same  amount  of  cardiovas- 
cular and  strength-training 
benefits  within  the  realistic 
time  available.  For  exam- 


ple, if  you  are  accustomed 
to  exercising  five  days  a 
week  strengthening  a  dif- 
ferent muscle  group  each 
day,  an  effective  modifica- 
tion could  be  switching  to 
three  days  a  week  using 
full-body  exercises  with 
one  day  of  rest  in  between. 

•  Tackle  your  stress.  W^en 
the  pressure  of  an  action- 
packed  holiday  season 
begins  to  take  its  toll,  work 
out!  Exercise  has  been 
proven  to  reduce  stress  by 
providing  an  outlet  to 
expend  energy.  Even  if  you 
can't  complete  your  normal 
routine,  taking  a  walk  or 
running  can  help  you  relax 
and  relieve  stress. 

Enjoy  the  holidays,  and 
when  you  don't  have  time 
to  do  anything  else,  KEEP 
MOVING! 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  Andrea

lenses  clean:  In  recent  years, 
"no-rub"  cleaning  solutions 
became  popular,  but  today 
most  eye  doctors  advocate 
using  a  "rub  and  rinse" 
approach.  "The  latest 
research  found  that  nearly  all 
eye  care  professionals 
recommend  a  rub  and  rinse 
regimen  to  their  patients," 
said  Dr.  Shovlin.  "I  believe 
that  rubbing  lenses  clean  is 
the  safest  approach,  and 
would  say,  simply,  'no  rub, 
no  clean.'" 

It  is  important  to  clean 
lenses  each  time  they  are 
handled.  If  you  use  a 
multipurpose  solution,  place 
a  few  drops  of  solution  in 
your  palm  before  placing 
your  contact  lens  in  your 
hand,  then  rub  for  a  full  10 
seconds  (about  the  same 
amount  of  time  it  takes  to 
send  a  text  message)  on  each 
side  of  the  lens  in  a  back  and 
forth  and  up  and  down  motion 
across  the  lens.  Then,  rinse 
the  lens  with  more  of  the 
solution  for  five  seconds  one 
each  side  before  placing  it  in 
your  contact  lens  case  with 
brand-new  multipurpose 
solution  and  allow  lenses  to 
soak  for  a  minimum  of  six 
hours  for  disinfection, 
cleaning  and  protein  removal. 

2.  Always  rinse 
lenses  with  contact  lens 
solution,  never  with  tap 
water:  Even  though  tap  water 
is  fine  to  drink,  it  inay  harbor 
a  microorganism  that  can 
cause  an  infection  in  your 
eye.  Consequently,  lenses 
and  tap  water  should  not  mix . 
Yet  a  recent  survey  found 
more  than  one  in  five  contact 
lens  wearers  is  unaware  of 
the  danger. 

"Contact  lens  solutions 
are  specially  formulated  to 
clean  your  lenses  and  guard 
your  eyes,"  said  Dr.  David 
Hansen,  OD,  director  of 
Professional  Services  at 
Advanced  Medical  Optics 
(AMD),  an  eye  care  company 
that  is  leading  the  efforts 
behind  the  EYE  Care 
awareness  campaign.  "Using 
a  quality  lens  solution,  such 
as  AMO's  new  Cotnplete 
Multi-Purpose  Solution 
Easy-Rub  Formula,  not  only 

Blood  Drive 

The  American  Red  Cross 
will  hold  a  blood  drive

p.m.  at  the  Sons  of  Italy. 
Quarry  St.,  West  Quincy. 


protects  your  eyes,  but  can 
also  make  them  feel  better," 
said  Dr.  Hansen. 

3.  Avoid  wearing 
contacts  in  swimming 
pools,  hot  tubs  and 
showers:  Seventy  percent  of 
contact  lens  users  report 
going  into  water  while 
wearing  their  lenses. 
Although  no  one  wants  to  be 
inconvenienced,  the  risk  of 
tap  water  or  treated  water 
getting  on  your  lenses 
becomes  significant  in  a  wet 
environment.  Other  concerns 
include  the  chemicals  u.sed 
in  pools  and  hot  tubs,  and  the 
risk  of  losing  your  lenses. 

4.  Don't  let  your  lens 
case  become  an  infection 
point:  Doctors  advise 
patients  to  clean  out  their  lens 
cases  every  day  with  contact 
lens  solution  and  replace  their 
cases  every  one  to  three 
months.  Think  of  your 
contact  lens  case  as  having 
an  expiration  date.  A  recent 
survey,  though,  found  that 
the  majority  of  contact  lens 
wearing  does  not  follow 
either  recommendation,  and 
some  never  clean  their  cases. 

Contact  lens  wearers 
should  also  avoid  "topping 
off  the  case-that  is,  just 
adding  a  little  new  solution, 
without  emptying  the  used 
solution  and  rinsing  out  the 
case.  Used  solution  can 
harbor  harmful  bacteria, 
which  can  contribute  to 
infection. 

5.  Listen  to  your  eye 
doctor-and  make  sure  your 
eye  doctor  listens  to  you: 
"Your  eyes  are  different  from 
tnine,  so  we  need  to  discuss 
what  work s  best  fur  you  as  an 
individual, ■■  said  Dr  Shovlin. 
He  has  seen  problems  arise 
when  patients  change 
disinfecting  solutions 
without  talking  to  their 
doctors.  "Contact  lenses  are 
not  just  another  product,  but 
;u"e  more  akin  to  a  sensitive 
medical  device,"  he  said. 
"We  need  to  all  take  more 
time  to  di.scuss  eye  safety- 
becausc  our  eyes  are  worth 
it."

Div.  1  Central/East  Champs 

Red  Raiders 

Win  Thriller 

Against  Quincy 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raider  girls'  volleyball  team 
rallied  back  from  a  1  -0  match 
hole  and  a  23-15  deficit  in 
Game  Two  to  knock  off 
Quincy  High  School,  3-2,  in 
a  thrilling  and  action-packed 
Division  I  Central/East 
volleyball  championship  at 
Eastern  Nazarene  College 
last  Saturday  night. 

The  Raiders  (22-2),  the 
three-time  defending 
Atlantic  Coast  League 
champions,  faced  Millord 
Hiizh  School,  winner  ol  the 
Central/West  title,  Tuesday 
night  at  Ashland  High  School 
in  the  state  semifinal. 

North  Quincy  had  defeated 
the  Presidents  twice  already 
this  fall  in  ACL  play, 
including  six  straight  games 
(two  3-0  match  sweeps) 
before  getting  over-powered 
in  Game  One  of  the  Central/ 
East  final. 

Playing  before  a  packed 
house  at  ENC.  the  Presidents, 
behind  the  play  of  seniors 
Liz  Bock  (middle  hitter), 
Meagan  Tobin  (right  side 
hitter),  Alicia  Woodberry 
(setter),  Marybeth  Torpey 
(middle  hitter)  and  Catey 
Stanton  (outside  hitter)  took 
a  commanding  19-13  lead  in 
the  first  game  before  Red 
Raider  second-year  head 
coach  Kerry  Ginty  took  a 
time  out  to  help  settle  her 
team. 

But  Game  One  belonged 
to  the  Presidents.  By  the  time 
Quincy  was  serving  for  match 
point,  the  .score  was  24- 1 7, 
anu  the  Red  Raiders  were 
still  searching  for  a  cohesive 
front  to  quell  the  Presidents 
offensive  barrage.  Quincy 
finished  off  the  Raiders  in 
quick  fashion,  and  for  the 
first  time  in  the  two  teams' 
three  matches,  the  Presidents 
held  the  early  advantage. 

As  Game  Two  began,  the 
Presidents  controlled  all  of 
the  momentum,  and  their  play 
in  the  early  stages  of  the 


second  game,  gave  pause  to 
the  North  Quincy  bench  and 
fans.  The  Presidents  trailed 
3-1  early  in  the  game,  but 
then  went  on  a  19-12  run  in 
the  middle  part  of  the  game 
that  ended  after  Bock  drove 
the  ball  into  the  Red  Raider 
court  to  give  the  Presidents  a 
commanding  20-13  lead. 
Moments  later,  Quincy  held 
a  23-15  lead,  and  was  just 
two  service  points  away  from 
taking  a  2-0  match  lead,  but 
North  Quincy  was  not  the 
three-time  defending  league 
champs  for  nothing. 

Behind  the  serving  of 
super  sophomore  Rushri 
Wijesundera  (five  straight 
service  points)  and  the  play 
of  senior  captain  Virginia 
Wong  (game-high  24  kills, 
seven  blocks),  seniors 
Rebecca  Stanton  and 
Rebecca  Goreham  and  junior 
outside  hitter  Ashley  Kostka 
and  junior  setter  Kathleen 
Lynch  the  Red  Raiders  went 
on  a  remarkable  11-1  scoring 
run  to  take  the  momentum 
and  the  pivotal  Game  Two 
from  right  under  the 
Presidents  noses,  26-24. 

"When  we're  down,  she 
( Wijesundera)  brings  us  back 
and  when  we're  out  of  it,  she 
puts  us  right  back  in  it,"  said 
Ginty  of  her  sophomore 
sensation.  "She  has  been 
doing  it  for  us  all  year  long, 
and  she  did  it  again  for  us. 
She  played  amazing." 

North  Quincy  used  the 
momentum  gained  from  their 
GaiTie  Two  comeback 
throughout  Game  Three. 
After  starting  off  the  game 
with  a  2-1  lead,  the  Raiders 
fell  behind  the  Presidents  3- 
2  after  Catey  Stanton  got  up 
and  blocked  a  Raider 
attempted  return.  But  North 
quickly  tied  the  score  at  3-3, 
and  went  ahead  for  good  4-3 
after  Wong  blocked  a 
President  return. 

With  Wijesundera  serving. 
North  found  themselves  up 
8-4  before  Quincy  head  coach

Jacqui  Niosi  called  a  timeout 
to  quiet  the  Raider  charge. 
The  break  seemed  to  work  as 
Quincy  clawed  their  way 
back  into  the  game  to  tie  the 
score  at  13-13,  but  North 
would  score  the  next  five 
points  to  take  an  18-1 3  lead. 

Facing  a  23-20  deficit,  the 
Presidents  dug  deep  again 
and  after  a  long  volley  back 
and  forth,  Quincy  stole  a 
point  to  make  it  a  two-point 
game  at  23-21.  With  the 
possibility  of  being  up  just 
one  point.  North's  Rebecca 
Goreham  saved  a  point  with 
her  foot. 

Goreham.  playing  at  the 
outside  hitter  position,  could 
not  get  to  a  ball  that  was 
about  to  hit  the  court  with  her 
arms,  used  her  left  foot  to 
keep  the  ball  in  play,  and  the 
Red  Raiders  capitalized  to 
get  to  match  point. 

Rebecca  Stanton's  kill 
won  Game  Three,  and  the 
Raiders  were  one  game  away 
from  advancing  to  the  state 
semifinal. 

In  Game  Four.  Quincy

North  Defeats  Plymouth  S., 
Assured  Winning  Record 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

Not  even  Mother  Nature 
could  prevent  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raiders  from 
improving  their  2007  regular 
season  record  to  6-4  overall, 
and  5-3  in  the  Atlantic  Coast 
League. 

The  Raiders  took  an  early 
14-0  lead  over  Plymt)uth 
South  High  School  (5-5 
overall,  4-4  in  the  ACL)  last 
Friday  night  at  a  wet  and  cold 
Veterans  Memorial  Stadium, 
and  held  (»n  to  win  1 4-7.  With 
the  win,  Nt)rth  Quincy  is 
assured  ol  a  winning  sea.son 
lor  the  first  time  since  2001 . 

The  game  began  Just 
before  the  weather  went  from 
cold  and  dry  to  cold  and  wet, 
but  in  the  opening  quarter;  it 
did  not  seem  lo  matter  what 
the  weather  was  like  because 
both  teams  had  a  difficult 
lime  getting  their  ofienses  in 
gear. 

At  the  end  of  the  first 
i|uarter  of  play,  neither  learn 
had  produced  an  offensive 
play  that  went  for  more  than 
eight  yards.  North  punted  the 
ball  twice,  while  Plymouth 
South  could  do  nothing  on  its 
only  possession  of  the 
quarter. 

In  the  second  quarter, 
Plymouth  South  took 
possession  of  the  football  just 
outside  of  Red  Raider 
territory,  but  quickly  turned 
the  ball  over  on  an 
interception.  North  Quincy 
quarterback  Dennis  Martin 
(2-6,  66  yards,  TD,  2  INTs) 
handed  the  ball  off  to  senior 
running  back  Jon  Cahill  on 
first  down  for  a  short  gain. 
On  the  ne.xt  play  from 
scrimmage.  Martin  dri>pped 
back  to  pass  and  lofted  a  ball 
down  inside  the  Plymouth 
South  lO-yard  line.  Senior 
captain  and  wide  receiver 
Adam  Tragellis  watched 
while  two  defenders  banged 


FOOTBALL 


into  each  other,  taking 
themselves  out  of  the  play. 
Tragellis  came  down  with  the 
ball  on  the  three-yard  line  to 
set  up  a  first-and-goal  for 
North  Quincy. 

Martin  (seven  carries, 
eight  yards,  TD)  called  his 
own  number  on  first  down 
and  slipped  through  a  hole 
on  his  offensive  line  put 
North  up  6-0  with  just  over 
six  minutes  to  play  in  the 
half.  Senior  Zac  Deegan's 
point  after  attempt  was 
successful  and  after  a  three- 
play  drive  it  was  7-0. 

With  four  minutes 
remaining  until  the  halftime 
break,  the  rain  started  coming 
down  in  buckets.  As  the 
teams  entered  the  locker 
room,  the  faithful  hometown 
fans  retreated  under  the 
bleachers  in  an  attempt  to 
stay  dry  and  warm.  But 
M«)thcr  Nature  was  not  letting 
up.  When  the  teams  came 
back  onto  the  turf  to  start  the 
second  half,  the  rain  had 
turned  to  sleet  and  freezing 
rain,  and  the  product  on  the 
field  slowed  to  a  snail' s  pace. 

After  Plymouth  South 
could  do  nothing  against  a 
stout  Raider  defense  on  their 
first  possession,  the  Raiders 
took  the  ball  back  and  took  a 
gamble  on  fourth-and-short 
that  ultimately  sealed  the 
game. 

Facing  the  prospect  of 
kicking  the  ball  back  to 
Plymouth  South  from  just 
inside  the  50-yard  line,  the 
Raiders  lined  up  instead  to 
go  for  it  on  fourth  down  and 
inches.  The  move  paid  off 
when  Martin  called  his  own 
number  once  again  and  got 
the  first  down  with  a 
quarterback  sneak.

Plymouth  South  35-yard  line. 
North  Quincy  head  coach  Jim 
Connor  called  for  a  passing 
play.  Martin,  facing  an 
oncoming  pass  rush  and  the 
driving  rain,  spotted  senior 
tight  end  Marcellus  Lee  down 
the  seam  between  the  hash 
marks  and  threw  the  ball  in 
his  direction.  Lee  took  the 
pass  away  from  three 
defenders  and  walked  into 
the  endzone  for  his  first  career 
touchdown.  Deegan's  second 
PAT  put  North  Quincy  up 
14-0. 

The  remainder  of  the  third 
quarter  the  Raider  defense 
held  Plymouth  South  to  very 
little  offense.  South  entered 
the  contest  averaging  close 
to  20  points  per  game,  but 
North's  defensive  backfield 
of  Danny  Jackson,  Tragellis, 
Pat  Watkins  and  Martin  took 
away  Plymouth  South's 
Derrick  Duquette's  passing 
lanes  and  linebackers/ 
defensive  linemen  Joe 
Beniot,  Jesse  Skomial,  Dan 
Austin  and  Lee  controlled  the 
line  of  .scrimmage. 

"Our  defense  won  this 
game  for  us,"  said  Connor. 
"The  defense  played  above 
their  heads.  They  all  deserve 
a  game  ball.  They  were 
outstanding  all  four 
quarters." 

In  the  fourth  quarter  things 
got  very  interesting. 
Duquette,  who  could  get 
nothing  done  through  the  air, 
finally  got  Plymouth  South 
on  the  board.  On  a  third  down 
play  from  the  NQ  40-yard 
line,  he  scrambled  around  the 
pocket  and  took  off  down  the 
field.  Five  Raider  defenders 
had  a  shot  at  him,  but  he 
escaped  their  tackles  and 
scored  to  make  it  14-7  with 
seven  minutes  to  play. 

North  Quincy  punted  the 
ball  back  to  South  after  they 
could  do  nothing  on  their  ne.xt 
possession  and  on  the  punt  a 
Plymouth  South  special  team 
player  blocked  a  NQ  player 
away  from  the  play  that  fired 
up  the  bench  and  coaching 
staff. 

Connor  called  a  safety 
blitz  on  first  down  and 
Watkins  steamed  in  from  the 
right  end  and  buried  Duquette 
as  he  threw.  Lee  picked  off 
the  duck  and  North  was  back 
in  business  with  five  minutes 
to  play. 

Martin  would  fumble  on 
fourth  down,  but  Plymouth 
South  came  up  a  yard  short 
on  fourth  down.  Martin  was 
intercepted  on  the  next  North 
possession,  but  once  again 
Plymouth  South  came  up 
short  in  Raider  territory  and 
the  Red  Raiders  took  the  ball 
back  ran  out  the  clock  for  the 
win. 

The  Red  Raiders  now 
prepare  for  the  75*  annual 
Thanksgiving  Day  game 
against  Quincy  on  Nov.  22. 
North  looks  for  their  seventh 
win  of  the  year  and  their  first 
against  tibe  Presidents  in  the 
last  d^t  years. 


Red  Raiders  Win 
Thriller  Against  Quincy 


Cont'd  From  Page  19) 

Woodberry  closed  the  gap  to 
7-6  North  Quincy,  the  two 
teams  went  back  and  forth. 
At  9-9,  North  Quincy  scored 
the  next  six  points  to  win  the 
match  and  take  the  title. 

The  two  teams  were  as 
close  to  even  as  two  teams 
could  be,  but  in  the  end,  the 
Red  Raiders  were  that  much 
better,  but  even  in  defeat, 
Quincy  played  exceptionally 
well. 

"That  was  just  great 
volleyball,"  said  Quincy  head 


coach  Jacqui  Niosi.  'They 
are  just  such  a  great  group  of 
girls  and  are  so  much  fun,  all 
of  them.  They  all  improved 
so  much  this  year."

Apaches  Finish  Season  Undefeated,  Capture  QYF  Crown 


The  North  Quincy 
Apaches  recently  capped  off 
an  undefeated  season  with  a 
hard-fought  6-0  \  ii.  tory  o\er 
a  tough  West  Quincy  Elks 
team  (5-2-1)  to  capture  the 
2(){)7  Quincy  Youth  Football 
league  title. 

The  only  score  of  the  game 
came  at  the  end  o\'  the  third 
i|uarter  when  the  Apaches" 
delense  had  the  Hlks  pinneii 
deep  in  their  oun  end  and 
capitalized  on  an  cnanl  pitch 
on  a  sweep  play.  Tlie  ball 
bounced  right  into  the  path 
()l  .Apache  defender,  .lack 
McDonald,  who  pounced  on 
it  lor  the  only  scoring  ni  ihc 
championship  game. 

The  first  half  was 
highlighted  by  team  defense, 
as  neither  side  could  muster 
any  points.  The  Apaches  look 
the  opening  kickoff  and  had 
good  field  position,  but  a 
tough  Elks  defense  forced  a 
fumble,  the  first  of  four  on 
the  day  for  the  Apache 
offense. 

Early  in  the  second 
quarter,  the  Apaches  were 
forced  to  punt  the  ball  from 
midfield  and  Pat  Morrissey 
punted  the  ball  inside  the 
Elks'  10-yard  line.  The  Elks 
went  back  on  the  offensive, 
but  was  stopped  by  a 
swarming  Apache  defense. 


Comerback  Joey  Lawlor  had 
a  huge  tackle  for  a  loss  on  the 
series. 

Later  in  the  quarter. 
Apaches'  quarterback  Mike 
McGrath  made  a  perfect  20- 
yard  pass  to  tight  end  Walter 
Hannon  for  a  first  down,  but 
again  the  Elks  defense 
stopped  the  promising  drive. 

In  the  third  quarter,  the 
l:lks  were  driving  and  it 
looked  like  they  were  gaining 
momentum,  but  safety  Eddie 
McDonough  intercepted  a 
pas^  and  returned  it  twenty 
yards.  Several  plays  later,  the 
Apaches  faced  a  fourth  down 
and  short,  but  could  not 
muster  the  first  down 

.After  another  exchange  of 
punts,  the  .Apache  defense 
agam  pinned  the  Elks  deep  in 
their  own  end.  After  a  near 
miss  safety  call,  the  Elks 
fumbled  on  the  sweep  play, 
and  McDonald  recovered  the 
loose  ball  in  the  endzone. 
That  touchdown  stood  up  as 
the  Apache  defense 
shutdown  the  Elks  in  the  final 
quarter. 

The  Apaches  earned  their 
spot  in  the  title  game  with  a 
14-6  win  over  the  Milton 
Mustangs.  Running  back 
Matt  McGuire  scored  from 
twelve  yards  out  with  only 
twenty-six  seconds

President  Fall  To  Sandwich 


The  Quincy  Presidents 
made  the  long  trip  down  to 
Cape  Cod  last  Friday  night  to 
play  in  an  Atlantic  Coast 
League  game  against 
Sandwich  High  School.  The 
Presidents'  jouiney  did  not 
produce  the  results  that  they 
were  hoping  for  as  Quincy 
lost  to  Sandwich  29-7. 

The  loss,  Quincy 's  second 
league  defeat  in  a  row,  puts 


the  Presidents'  record  overall 
at  2-7  and  2-6  in  the  ACL 
with  ju.st  one  game  remaining 
on  the  schedule.  That  is  the 
annual  showdown  with  the 
North  Quincy  Red  Raiders 
on  Thanksgiving  Day  (game 
time  10  a.m.). 

Against  Sandwich,  the 
Presidents  fell  into  the  same 
trap  that  has  been  their  crutch 
all  season:  the  inability  to 
move  the  ball  on  offense. 


Through  nine  games,  Quincy 
is  averagmg  just  fewer  than 
ten  points  per  game  (9.7 
ppg.),  while  allowing  22.3 
points  per  game  on  defense. 
But  when  it  comes  to 
Thanksgiving,  the  Presidents 
seem  to  rise  to  the  moment. 
Quincy  has  won  eight  straight 
Turkey  Day  games  in  a  row 
and  twelve  of  the  last  thirteen. 
The  Presidents  defeated  the 
Red  Raiders  10-7  last  year.

North  Beats  Milton  5-4 

In  A  Shoot  Out  To  Win 

'Town  Line  Trophy' 


The  North  Quincy  High 
School  boys'  soccer  team 
wrapped  up  their  2007 
regular  season  against  Milton 
High  School  two  weeks  ago. 
After  six  years  of  playing 
against  each  other  in  non- 
league  competition,  the  two 
schools  instituted  the  "Tovv  n 
Line  Trophy"  to  he  given 
annually  to  the  school  that 
comes  out  on  top  in  the  game. 

The  contest  this  fall  ended 
in  a  O-O-regulation  time  tic, 
and  as  a  result,  the  teams 
agreed  to  decide  a  winner 
through  a  shoot  out. 

North  Quincy  senior 
defender  Ryan  Keaney 
scored  first  for  the  Red 
Raiders  in  the  shoot  out 
followed  by  two  missed 
chances  by  the  Raiders.  After 
Milton  scored  on  their  first 
three  shoot  out  attempts,  the 
on-field  officials  mistakenly 
declared  Milton  the  winner. 
But  after  a  quick  conference 
between  NQ  head  coach  Rich 
Hanlon  and  the  referees,  the 
shoot  out  continued 
according  to  MIAA  rules, 
which  state  a  shoot  out  can 


not  be  decided  until  both 
teams  complete  five 
attempts. 

NQ  senior  defender  Tim 
Schow  buried  the  ball  in  the 
far  corner  for  the  Raiders 
second  gt>al  to  make  it  3-2 
Milton.  Sophomore  goalie 
Ryan  Louis  followed 
Schow's  goal  with  a 
sensational  save  on  Milton's 
fourth  attempt,  and  then  came 
out  of  the  net  to  score  with  a 
hard  shot  to  the  left  corner  ot 
thee  net,  tying  the  shoot  out 
at  3-3. 

A  tremendi)us  kick  save 
by  Louis  on  Milton's  final 
attempt  sealed  the  shoot  out 
tie,  and  sent  the  shoot  out 
into  a  sudden  death  format. 
In  sudden  death,  NQ  senior 
defender  Chris  Doyle  scored 
his  first  high  school  goal  to 
keep  the  Raiders  alive,  but 
Milton  came  right  back  and 
tied  it  again. 

NQ  junior  Mike  Piroli 
calmly  put  the  ball  in  the  net 
on  the  Raiders  seventh  shoot 
out  attempt,  and  when  the 
next  Milton  player  missed, 
the  "Town  Line  Trophy" 


went  to  the  Raiders. 

"It  was  an  exciting  way  to 
end  a  great  season,"  said 
Hanlon. 

The  2(K)7  Red  Raiders  will 
graduate  seniors  Sean 
Clifford,  John  Cicciariello, 
Dan  Richards,  Alex  Breaii, 
Marc  DcLucia,  Eoin  Kenny, 
Luis  Escobar,  Besmir 
Sulejmani,  Matt  Johnson, 
Zach  O'Hara.  Elbara  /.iade, 
Pavli  Pcrmeti  and  Kwasi 
Osei 

"These  seniors  will  be 
sorely  missed  when  the 
graduate  in  June."  added 
Hanlon.  "But  with  the 
promising  players  moving  up 
from  this  yeiU"'sjunior  varsity 
squad  and  the  players  we  have 
returning  from  this  year's 
team,  I  am  optimistic  about  a 
post-season  tournament 
appearance  next  year." 

Players  returning  to  the 
varsity  team  next  years 
include  juniors  Danny 
Russell,  Florian  Mustafhi, 
Paul  DeLucia,  Mike  Prioli 
and  Shane  Regan,  sophomore 
Ryan  Louis  and  freshman 
Nick  Carbone.

"Obedience  is  the  Mother  of  success."  - 
Aeschylus  . . .  "He  who  obeys  with  mod- 
esty will  be  worthy  some  day  of  being 
allowed  to  command."  -  Plato 

We  know  that  at  times  it  is  hard  for  all 
of  us  to  confront  the  necessity  of  obedi- 
ence and  accept  it.  Obedience  is  not  a 
popular  word  in  our  society.  It  is  a  very 
important  word,  nonetheless.  We  have  to  submit  to  some  sort  of 
obedience  in  every  act  and  thought  of  our  lives.  We  may  not  like 
this:  we  may  rebel;  but  the  fact  remains  that  as  we  go  through  life, 
we  are  constantly  being  called  upon  to  obey.  We  must  obey  traffic 
lights  and  rules . . .  We  must  pay  government  taxes. . .  We  have  to 
be  on  time  regarding  work  hours. . . 

Obedience  is  the  first  step  in  the  direction  of  self-control,  and 
self-control  lies  at  the  basis  of  moral  character. 

We  know  that  a  good  home  is  a  home  where  obedience  is 
required  and  accepted  in  good  spirit.  Granted,  children  may  not 
want  to  obey!  Did  we  not  feel  the  same  when  we  were  children? . . 

Yet,  should  we  not  remember  that  there  is  no  moral  character 
without  self-coDtrol  and  no  self-control  without  the  willingness  to 
bey? . .  Obedience . . .  Popular  or  not . .  It  is  really  quite  a  word!

Curt  Schilling  To  Appear  With  Family 


90  Units  In  55th  Christmas  Parade  Sunday 


What  may  be  the  third 
largest  spectator  event  in 
Massachusetts  will  step  off 
for  the  55th  time  Sunday, 
Nov.  25,  at  12:30  p.m.  at  the 
comer  of  Elm  and  Hancock 
Streets,  Quincy  Center. 

Curt  Schilling,  who 
helped  Boston  to  its  first 
world  series  championship 
in  86  years,  will  now  help 
Quincy  celebrate  its  55th 
Christmas  Festival  Parade 
Sunday. 

The  41 -year-old  pitcher, 
who  recently  signed  on  for 
another  year  with  the  Red 
Sox,  will  ride  behind  a  float 
containing  Wally  the  Green 
Monster,  the  mascot  for 
Fenway's  left  field  wall. 

With  him  in  the  open  con- 
vertible  will  be  his  wife, 
Shonda,  and  their  four  chil- 
dren, Gehrig,  Gabrielle, 
Grant  and  Garrison.  The 
Schilling  family  lives  in 
Medfleld. 

"We  are  pleased  that  they 
are  able  to  join  us,"  said 
George  White,  chairman  of 
the  Christmas  Festival  Com- 
mittee. "When  they  see  the 
number  of  people  watching 
the  parade  they  will  enjoy  the 
day." 

An  estimated  200,000 
turn  out  yearly  to  watch  the 
parade  as  it  wends  its  way 
down  Hancock  Street  to  East 
and  West  Squantum  Streets 
at  North  Quincy  High 
School. 

Only  the  26  mile,  385 
yard  route  of  the  Boston 
Marathon  and  the  Boston 
Pops  Fourth  of  July  Concert 
on  the  Esplanade  have  been 
known  to  draw  larger  crowds 
with  regularity. 

Some  90  units  will  take 
part  in  this  year's  parade,  in- 
cluding the  ever  popular 
Shriners  Clowns,  the  Boston 
Police  Gaelic  Bagpipe  Band, 
and  the  Hallamore  Clydes- 
dales. 

The  rain  date  for  the  pa- 
rade will  be  Sunday,  Dec.  3, 
also  at  12:30  p.m.  Quincy 
Access  Television  will  carry 
a  news  crawl  if  the  parade  is 
postponed. 

The  parade  theme, 
"Christmas  Celebrations," 
will  be  reflected  in  the  floats 
which  will  be  rated  by  the 


CURT  SCHILLING 

judges  as  they  pass  through 
the  Cottage  Avenue/Hancock 
Street  area. 

The  awards  for  best  floats 
and  bands  will  be  made  in 
the  North  Quincy  High 
School  gym  after  the  parade. 

The  parade  theme, 
"Christmas  Celebrations," 
was  proposed  by  Janice 
Magee  of  Quincy,  who  will 
ride  in  the  parade. 

High  school  bands  par- 
ticipating: Douglas,  New

An  Election  Night  To  Remember 


McINTVRE 


DELLA 
CHIESA 


RICCIUTI 


It  isn't  easy  to  be  a  good  loser. 
Especially  in  politics. 

But  Bill  Phelan  was  one  last  election  night  when  he 
strode  into  Tom  Koch's  victory  celebration  to 
congratulate  the  man  who  had  just  taken  the  mayor's 
otfice  away  from  him. 

It  got  me  to  thinking  about  my  favorite  Quincy 
election  night  as  a  newspaperman  back  in  1959. 

That  was  the  year  in  which  City  Council  President 
.lames  Mclntyre. 
only  29 challenged 
the  veteran, 

powerful  and 
popular  incumbent 
Amelio  Delia 
Chiesa.  58. 

It  wasn't  who 
w  on  or  lost  that  made  it  so  memorable 
an  election  night  but  how  it  ended. 

It  had  been  a  hard-hitting  and  one  of  the  best  mayoral 
races  in  years. 

I  w  alked  into  Mclntyre's  campaign  headquarters  on 
Hancock  Street.  Just  a  couple  of  doors  from  where  The 
Quincx  Sun  is  now  located,  election  night,  Nov.  3. 
He  and  James  "Pete"  Ricciuti.  his  campaign  manager 
and  long-time  friend  were  studying 
what  they  considered  key  early  returns. 
"I  don't  think  we're  going  to  make 
it,"  Mclntyre  said,  shaking  his  head. 
Later  figures  would  prove  him  right. 
They  would  eventually  show  Delia 
Chiesa  the  winner  by  a  margin  of 
2,ll7votes-l7,  650to  15,533. 
It  would  be  Mclntyre's  only  political  defeat. 
Mclntyre's  wife.  Sheila,  was  there  with  him.  She  had 
promised  to  call  her  mother  in  Niagara  Falls,  NY  with 
the  outcome.  And,  when  it  looked  certain  it  was  not 
going  to  be  their  night,  she  made  the  call. 

"Jimmy  didn't  make  it,"  she  told  her  mother  and 
added,  "But  it's  only  an  election.  We  lost  something 
more  important  than  that." 

She  was  referring  to  the  death  shortly  before  the 
election  of  their  infant  son,  William,  named  for 
Mclntyre's  father.  Police  Captain  William  Mclntyre. 
Now,  it  was  getting  late.  Mclntyre  and  Ricciuti 
looked  at  one  another  and  knew  what  they  were  going 
to  do. 

"Let's  go,"  Mclntyre  said. 

I  went  along  with  them  walking  across  the  street  to 
old  City  Hall  and  climbing  the  stairs  to  the  mayor's 
office.  Delia  Chiesa  had  gone  there  after  leaving  his 
campaign  headquarters,  which  were  across  the  street 
from  Mclntyre's. 

He  was  alone  when  we  walked  in. 
"Congratulations,  Mel,"  Mclntyre  said,  extending 
his  hand.  "You  are  still  the  mayor." 

The  two  shook  hands  and  then  Delia  Chiesa,  like  a 
father,  slipped  his  arm  around  Mclntyre' s  shoulder  and 
said,  "You're  young,  Jimmy.  Your  day  will  come." 

And,  It  did  in  1 965  when  Delia  Chiesa  retired  after  1 2 
years  as  mayor,  eight  under  Plan  A  and  four  under  Plan 
E  and  Mclntyre  succeeded  him,  defeating  Joseph 
LaRaia. 

Delia  Chiesa  mused  he  was  giving  up  his  seat  "for  the 
woman  I  love,"  borrowing  from  King  Edward  VIII. 
That  was  his  wife,  Evelyn,  whom  he  said  had  been  "a 
political  widow"  during  his  22-year  career  and  wanted 
to  spend  more  time  with  her. 

Delia  Chiesa  and  Mclntyre  had  campaigned  hard 
against  one  another.  Their  political  views  differed, 
Delia  Chiesa  a  Republican  and  Mclntyre  a  Democrat. 
But  they  shared  a  deep  love  and  respect  for  Quincy. 


GARDNER 


CEDRONE 


The  election  was  over  that  night  in  1959.  One  had 
won,  the  other  had  lost.  But  they  could  still  be  friends. 
It  would  still  be  Mel  and  Jimmy. 
The  years  passed. 

Delia  Chiesa  became  ill  and  Mclntyre  would  visit 
him.  Near  the  end,  he  would  sit  and  hold  Delia  Chiesa' s 
hand,  comforting  him. 

Delia  Chiesa  died  in  October  1975  at  age  74. 
Mclntyre,   who  had   served  also   as   a  state 
representative  and  state  senator  was  counsel  for  the 
Massachusetts  Senate  when  he  died  at  age  53  in  March 
1984. 

The  two  are  fondly  remembered  as  "two  of  Quincy's 
greatest  mayors." 

And  to  me,  they  were  also  role  models  in  how  to 
accept  political  defeat  and  victory. 

□ 
FORMER  WARD  6  City  Councillor  Alicia  Gardner 
is  returning  to  the  political  scene. 

She' s  running  for  Democratic  State 
Committeewoman  in  the  Norfolk- 
Plymouth  District.  Incumbent  Bemice 
Mader,  who  served  in  Mayor  James 
Sheets'  administration,  is  not  seeking 
re-election. 

Gardner  is  Director  of  Support 
Services  in  the  Norfolk  County  Register  of  Deeds 
office. 

Christine  Cedrone,  former  School  Committeewoman, 
is  seeking  another  term  as  Republican 
State  Committeewoman. 

Patrick  McDermott,  Norfolk 
County  Register  of 
Probate  and  former 
city  councillor,  is  a 
candidate  for  re- 
election as 
Democratic  State  Committeeman. 

Dominic  Paulo  of  Quincy  and 
Matthew  Sisk  of  Braintree  are 
candidates  for  Republican  State  Committeeman. 

Q 
ATTY.  GEORGE  BURKE  plans  to  keep  his 
Thanksgiving  Day  tradition  streak 
alive. 

Burke  will  be  in  the  stands  for  his 
64"'  consecutive  Quincy-North 
football  game. 

The  streak  started  when  he  was  in 
the  seventh  grade  at  Central  Junior 
High  School,  and  continued  through 
Quincy  High  School  into  this  year. 
Anyone  top  that? 

Q 
OOPS:  Whenever  the  phone  rings  and  its  Frank 
McCauley  I  answer,  "W^at  now?"  Frank  keeps  a  close 
eye  on  me  and  let's  me  know  when  I 
boot  one. 

Last  week  we  noted  that  Ward  1 
had  the  largest  voter  turnout  Nov.  6 
with  53  percent  well  over  the  city's  44 
percent. 

And,  we  said.  Precinct  5  had  51 
percent.  It  was  actually  61  percent, 
says  Frank.  (He's  right).  It  was  a  typo. 

One  of  these  days  I'm  going  to  get  one  on  him. 
Haven't  been  able  to  yet.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


A 


THIS  1964  POS I  CARD  shows  Quincy  Center  looking 
north  on  Hancock  Street  from  its  intersection  with  Re- 
vere Road.  This  is  a  Sunday  morning  picture  so  there  is 
not  much  traffic,  but  the  square  was  still  a  vibrant 
Shopperstown  at  this  time.  Shortly  after  this  picture 
was  taken,  Sears  and  Roebuck  expanded  their  store  into 
the  boarded  up  Capitol  Theater  Building  on  the  left. 
Now,  though.  Sears,  Touraines,  Woolworth's,  The 
Lerner  Shop  and  Remick's  down  on  the  left  are  all  his- 
tory. On  the  right  all  the  store  names  shown  on  the  signs 
are  gone  from  here  as  well,  except  the  Spotlight,  which 


has  changed  its  name  but  is  still  a  tavern.  Notice  the 
once  familiar  blue  "City  of  Quincy  Shopperstown"  sign 
in  front  of  Charlie  Bean's  music  store  on  the  far  right. 
Today,  with  big  plans  for  a  revitalized  downtown,  the 
city  hopes  to  take  the  old  theater  building  dow  n  so  that 
the  new  Concourse  roadway  can  pass  through  the  fore- 
ground of  this  picture.  Perhaps  a  new  vibrant  down- 
town will  someday  have  a  new  but  different  name  as 
meaningful  as  was  "Shopperstown."  To  contact  Tom 
Galvin,  e-mail  tmgalvin@verizon.net.

MEMA  Offers  Safety 
Tips  for  Power  Outages 


Storm's  hit  in  all  seasons 
and  power  outages  often 
follow.  For  that  reason,  the 
Massachusetts  Emergency 
Management  Agency 
(MEMA)  recommends  that

to  topple  and  snap  tree  limbs, 
according  to  MEMA 
Director  Don  Bovce  uho 


warns  they  njay  '"full  on 
power  lines  and  disrupt 
electrical  service." 

Downed  wires  and  trees 
are  dangerous  because 
electrical  wires  can  be  hidden 
from  \iew.  Keep  children 
and  pets  awa>  frc»m  such 
areas.  Never  attempt  to  touch 
or  move  downed  lines.  Call 
the  utilit)  companx  to  report 
any  outage-related  problem.

Katherine  Aalto  Honored 

At  102,  Her  Life  Has  Been 
Happy  And  Simple 


By  MIRIAM  JOSKPH 

rhirieen  years  heri>re 
Nov.  I  I  became  a  date  to 
remember  m  I'.S.  history. 
QuincN  resident  Katherine 
Aalto  was  born  {o  Irish  im- 
migrants in  Boston. 

I  .asl  v\eek.  she  celebrateil 
her  102  '  birthda>  w  ilh 
Irieiuls  aiul  lamily  at  the 
.•\dull  DayCareCY-nteratthe 
Salvation  .Armys  Quinc\ 
Temple  Corps. 

The  middle  child  ot  nine 
siblings.  Katherine  recalls 
lakini:  a  ride  in  her  brother's 
MiKlel  1  lord,  and  a  coke- 
lueled  lurnace  in  her  child- 
hootl  home,  alteiuleil  to  by 
her  broihei  s.  .And  she  remem- 
bers assisting  her  another  in 
the  kitchen,  w  here  mornings 
al\va\s  leatured  a  big  pot  ol 
oatmeal  o\\  the  stove  to  feed 
a  hungry  t'amih  o\i  to  work 
and  school. 

■'.\f\  lather  worked  for  the 
citN  ol  Boston  and  1  uent  to 
parochial  school  in  Boston- 
m\  mother  and  sister  insisted 
on  m\  going  to  a  parochial 
school.  Later  on  I  w  orked  at 
J. .A.  Cigars." 

At  age  2.>.  Katherine 
Finnegan  married  Frank 
.Aaltci.  who  worked  at  the 
Quincy  Shipyard,  and  they 
had  two  sons.  Frank  and  Ri- 
chard. They  have  all  prede- 
ceased her. 

A  resident  of  O'Brien 
Towers.  Katherine  is  the 
most-senior  member  of  the 
.Adult  Day  Care  Program  at 
The  Salvation  .Army,  where 
she  spends  three  days  of  her 
week  from  8  a.m.  to  2:45 
p.m. 

Activities  Director  Kim 
Oliveri  said,  'There  are  38 
participants  in  the  program 
right  now.  some  attend  daily, 
and  some  attend  a  few  days 
per  week-we  are  licensed  by 
the  Commonwealth  of  Mass 
to  provide  for  only  thirty 
people  per  day  because  of 
the  size  of  our  facihty." 

Because  the  physical  ca- 
pabilities of  participants  have 
been  waning  in  recent  years, 
Oliven  notes  a  change  in  the 
program's  activities. 

"We  used  to  be  able  to  do 
more  outdoor  activities,  like 
visit  museums  and  take  swan- 
boat  ndes,  but  we  can't  now 
with  all  the  wheel  chairs  and 
walkers... it's  a  big  change. 
We  are  limited  in  going  out." 
One  of  Katherine 's  favor- 
ite activities  is  the  twice

Some  o{  the  Quincy  restau- 
rants w  hich  offer  this  service 
are  Coop's  in  Quincy  Point, 
Louis  Crossing  in  Houghs 
Neck  and  The  Fours  in 
Quincy  Center. 

Potential  participants  in 
this  day  program  are  first 
approved  by  South  Shore 
Elder  Services  in  order  to 
determine  whether  there  is 
an  infimiity  or  a  need,  w  hich 
warrants  funding  for  the  se- 
nior to  attend. 

There  are  also  private-pay 
participants  in  the  program, 
as  well  as  scholarships 
awarded  to  seniors  in  need 
who  do  not  otherwise  qualify 
for  assistance. 

A  rehgious  woman,  Aalto 
refers  to  herself  as  'Everlast- 
ing' and  says  of  her  longev- 
ity, "I  am  a  happy  person.  I 
just  lived  a  simple  hfe,  aquiet 
life.  Now  I  watch  television, 
it  takes  up  most  of  my  time  at 
home.  .I've  looked  at  Danc- 
ing With  The  Stars,  and  soap 
operas,  and  The  Price  Is 
Right... the  TV  is  like  com- 
pany." 

Two  years  ago,  when 
Katherine' s  only  living  sis- 
ter, Margaret,  was  96  years 
old,  she  traveled  from  Cali- 
fornia to  attend  Katherine' s 
100*  birthday  party. 

Adams  Shore  resident 
Debora  Nigro,  Aalto' s  niece, 
said  "We  refer  to  my  aunt's 
younger  sister  as  the  West 
Coast  Matriarch,  and  we  call 
Katherine  the  East  Coast 
Matriarch." 

"My  aunt  Katherine  genu- 


inely enjoys  attending  this 
program,  she's  made  a  lot  ol 
new  friends  here,  which  is 
not  always  easy  to  do  when 
you  are  a  centenarian-the 
staff  is  great  and  1  couldn't 
be  more  pleased." 

Many  of  the  program's 
senior  participants  reside  in 
assisted  living  facilities  and 
attend  the  Salvation  Army's 
Day  Health  Program  for  the 
activities  and  companionship 
provided.  One  such  member 
is  Abby  McCann,  84.  who 
lives  in  her  own  home  in 
Weymouth. 

McCann  described  Aalto: 
"I  have  never  seen  Katherine 
unpleasant,  she  is  a  happy 
lady  with  a  wonderful  dispo- 
sition, a  great  outlook  on  life, 
she  just  rolls  with  the 
punches.  We  all  should  be 
more  like  that  lady . . .  she's  a 
gift." 

After  good-naturedly  cau- 
tioning her  not  to  "drool  on 
the  cake,"  the  group  of  about 
30  of  Katherine' s  friends 
sang  Happy  Birthday  as  she 
blew  out  her  candles  and 
posed  for  pictures. 

Many  of  the  seniors  there 
spoke  of  the  importance  of 
quality  of  life  and  how  en- 
riching this  day-program  is 
to  each  of  their  lives.  And 
they  are  universally  grateful 
for  the  mental  and  physical 
stimulation  provided. 

Gymnasium  activities  in- 
clude shuffleboard,  walking, 
T-Ball  and  basketball,  and 
sit-downs  like  arts  crafts, 
bingo,  pokeno,  dominoes  and 
trivia.  Snacks  and  nutritious 
lunches  are  provided  and 
bowling  field  trips  are  regu- 
larly scheduled.

At  Joyce  &  Gendrcau  Jewelers  we  are  proud  to  make  purchasing  and 
servicing  fine  quality  jewelry  an  uninlimidating.  relaxing,  and  Iriendiy 
experience.  The  Grendreau  family  is  in  our  97th  year  (and  filth  genera- 
tion) of  providing  our  customers  with  solid  values  on  exceptional  on- 
premise  services  and  jewelry. 

Joyce  Jewelers  has  been  a  fixture  in  the  "Downs"  since  1942  where  it  has 
been  known  as  the  home  for  fine  quality  and  discounted  prices  for  genera- 
tions. The  Gendreau  family  moved  our  business  from  Boston  to  North 
Quincy  in  1993  and  continued  Ben  Starr's  reputation  for  discounted  prices 
on  fine  quality  jewelry.  We  have  continued  his  pursuit  of  great  values  for 
the  everyday  customer  and  have  added  the  commitment  to  service  which 
we  can  provide  with  our  on-premise  repairs. 

Today,  our  business  consists  of  Frank  and  Anne  Gendreau.  their  children 
Frank,  David  and  Denise  and  the  next  generation  is  in  training  with 
grandaughter  Rachel  filling  in  on  Saturdays  and  holidays. 

Virtually  every  item  in  our  store  is  hand-picked  and  selected  by  us.  Therefore,  we  are  proud  to  own  them  and  to  offer  them  for 
sale.  We  offer  for  sale  everything  from  diamonds  and  bridal  jewelry  to  pearl  jewelry  to  watches  to  Cape  Cod  jewelry  to  baby 
items  all  at  discounted  prices. 

When  our  grandfather  started  in  his  father's  business  in  1925  he  was  told  "Quality  work  and  honest  values  will  keep  your  cus- 
tomers coming  back".  Eighty  years  later,  it  still  works  for  us! 

We  are  members  of  New  England  Jewelers  Association,  Jewelers  of  America  and  Gemological  Institute  of  America  Alumni.

No. Flammable  Holiday  Decorations 


During  this  holiday  sea- 
son Id  like  to  lake  this  op- 
portunity \o  remind  owners 
and  nianajiers  of  halls,  res- 
taurants, bars  and  nightclubs 
that  tlanimabie  decorations 
arc  not  allowed  within  as- 
sembly occupancies. 

When  patrons  decorate 
hired  halls  for  family  or  com- 
pany parties,  it  is  essential 
for  managers  to  instruct  those 
hiring  these  halls  that  deco- 
rations must  be  non-flam- 
mable. In  restaurants,  bars 
and  nightclubs,  the  same 
regulations  apply;  flammable 
decorations  including  li\e 
Chnstmas  trees  arc  unaccept- 
able 

.As  In  c  wrilien  in  a  pre\  i- 
ous  article,  the  .State  Fire 
Marshal" s  OtTice  initiated  a 
program  tocusmg  on  tire 
safet\  uith  sivial  clubs  and 
halls  .itlcr  .1  lire  in  a  {-.til 
Rncr  iciigiou'^  club 
prompted  this  initidtixc  In 
ihiv  incident,  candles  ignited 
combustible  decorations  and 
li\es  ucre  lost   1  gather  that 


volunteers  decorated  the  hall 
with  combustible  decorations 
without  consideration  of  the 
consequences  In  writing  this. 
1  ho}x*  that  an\  manager  rent- 
ing a  hall  this  holiday  season 
would  bring  this  requirement 
to  the  patron's  attention.  I 
also  expect  that  nay  owner  or 
manager  of  a  restaurant; 
nightclub  or  bar  will  con- 
form to  the  regulations  a.s 
well. 

In  addition,  any  candle  or 
candled  centerpiece  used 
within  assembl\  tvcupancy 
must  meet  our  appnnal  We 
i^ften  meet  within  this  office 
with  those  hiring  halls  v\ hen 
the\  h.i\  c  been  instructed  b> 
managers  to  submit  their 
candled  centerpiece  fi>r  ap- 
pnnal We  speciticallN  K>ok 
tor  low  profile,  stable 
candleholders  \Mth  chinine\  s

ci>\er  the  tlame  In  lieu  o\ 
banning  them  cntirel\.  no 
candle  is  appnned  uiihout 
adequate  stabilitx  and  flame 


coverage. 

Simply  put.  the  act  of  fire 
prevention  has  a  great  deal  to 
do  with  isolating  combus- 
tibles from  potential  ignition 
sources.  In  this  instance  the 
vState  Fire  Marshal  s  Office 
has  attempted  to  do  that  by 
emphasizing  the  importance 
of  eliminating  combustible 
decorations  in  these  ivcupan- 
cies.  while  the  elimination  of 
smoking  ha.s  eliminated  a 
potential  ignition  source  as 
well.  No  code  is  effective, 
however,  unless  it  is  em- 
braced and  implemented  on 
a  daily  basis  by  those  manag- 
ing and  accepting  responsi- 
bility tor  these  occupancies. 

Fveryone  benefits  in  a 
\Kell-niaintained.  safe  envi- 
ronment; make  it  >our  pnor- 
it>  as  well  Thank  \ou  for  it. 
Meanw  hile  keep  in  mind  that 
we  are  always  available  to 
assist  >ou  with  Nour  efforts 
or  remind  \  ou  of  their  impor- 
tance 

Happ\  holidays!

Why  50%  Of  Homes 

Listed  For  Sale  Don't  Sell 

The  First  Time  And  What 

to  Do  About  It 


Quincy  -  If  your  home  has  just  come  off  the  market  and  hasn't 
sold,  don't  get  discouraged.  The  reason  your  home  did  not 
sell  may  have  nothing  to  do  with  your  home  or  the  market. 
In  reality,  your  home  may  have  been  one  of  the  more  desir- 
able properties  for  sale. 

So  Why  Didn't  Your  Home  Sell? 

Last  year  almost  half  of  the  homes  listed  for  sale  never 
sold  at  all,  and  many  sellers  found  that  there  was  a  tremen- 
dous amount  a  homeowner  needed  to  be  educated  on  to  sell 
theu  home  for  top  dollar  in  the  shortest  ume  period. 

Don't  risk  making  the  wrong  choices  and  losing  both  time 
and  money  on  your  investment.  Before  you  hire  a  realtor, 
know  the  right  questions  to  ask  to  save  you  time  and  money. 

Industry  experts  have  prepared  a  free  special  report  called 
"How  to  Sella  House  thai  Didm  't  Sell"  which  educates  you 
on  the  issues  involved.

RECOGNIZING  AND  TREATING  PLANTAR  WARTS 


Like  other  warts,  plantar 
warts  are  caused  by  a  virus 
and  are  contagious.  They  ap- 
pear on  the  soles  of  the  feet, 
often  on  pressure  points. 
They  often  look  like  little, 
white  grainy  spots  on  the 
foot's  sole,  and  they  can  also 
resemble  gray  or  brown 
bumps  with  little  black  dots 
on  them.  They  may  even  just 
look  like  a  disruption  in  the 
normal  lines  on  the  bottom  of 
the  feet  Although  there  are 
some  over-the-counter  treat- 
ment options  available,  plan- 
tar warts  often  return,  so  it  is 
t)est  to  see  the  podiatrist  for 
a  definitive  diagnosis  and  ef- 
fective treatment  plan.  Dia- 
betics should  never  try  to  self - 
treat  any  condition  that  oc- 
curs on  their  feet,  even  plan- 
tar warts. 

Home  treatments  for  plan- 


tar warts  may  bring  short- 
term,  temporary  relief,  but 
medical  answers  are  your 
best  bet  for  successful,  long- 
lasting  results.  At  our  office, 
our  aim  is  to  prevent,  not  just 
repair.  Don!  wait  for  warts, 
skin  conditions,  fungal  infec- 
tions, and  aches  and  pains 
to  disappear  like  magic,  be- 
cause they  won't.  Come  see 
us  instead  for  prompt,  per- 
sonal attention  to  your  feet  s

Fore  River,  Nut  Island  Possible  Sites 

Morrissey  Plans  Discussion  On  Wind  T\irbine  Dec.  5 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

Sen.  Michael  Morrissey 
will  host  an  open  discussion 
of  wind  turbines  at  the  request 
of  officials  from  the 
Massachusetts  Water 
Resources  Authority 
(MWRA). 

Morrissey  said  that 
MWRA  officials  are 
weighing  the  benefits  of 
erecting  a  wind  turbine  at  the 
Nut  Island  sewage  transfer 
station. 

The  meeting  is  tentatively 
set  for  Wednesday,  Dec.  5,  at 
Quincy  YachtClub,  131()Sea 
Street,  Houghs  Neck. 

The  senator  emphasized 
that  there  are  no  definite  plans 
yet  regarding  an  MWRA 
wind  facility.  Both  he  and 
MWRA  officials  want  to 
sound  out  area  residents. 

This  is  the  second 
potential  wind  turbine  site 
under  consideration  in 
Quincy.  Patriot  Renewables, 
IAA\  has  already  filed  for  a 
permit  for  a  privately  owned 
wind  turbine  for  its  affiliate. 
Jay  Cashman  Co.,  at  the 
former  Fore  River  Shipyard. 

As  a  result,  the  City 
Council  is  currently 
developing  an  ordinance 
regulating  details,  such  as  the 
size  and  location,  of  wind 
turbines  in  the  city. 

Planning  Board  Chairman 
Robert  Harnais  said  the 
board's  public  hearing  on  the 
wind  turbine  ordinance  has 
been  continued  to  Dec.  12. 

The  MWRA  station,  at  the 
tip  of  Houghs  Neck,  runs  24- 
hours  a  day,  seven  days  a 
week  and  uses  considerable 
energy  to  treat  and  transfer 
sewage  that  comes  from  pipes 
as  far  as  Framingham, 
according  to  MWRA 
ofticials. 

Morrissey  noted  that  the 
regional  agency  is  under 
considerable  pressure  to  hold 
down  the  uater  and  sewer 


MICHAEL  MORRISSEY 

rates  for  ratepayers  in  its  61 
cities  and  towns. 

Using  renewable  energy 
would  reduce  utility  costs  for 
the  agency,  according  to 
Morrissey  who  said,  "What 
they  envision  is  savings  for 
the  ratepayer.  The  largest 
single  cost  they're  facing  is 
utility  costs.  Nut  Island  came 
up  where  there  might  be  a 
possibility." 

"Hull  has  been  very 
successful,"  Morrissey  said. 
Hull's  wind  turbines  have  cut 
municipal  energy  costs  in  that 
town  since  the  late  IWO's. 

The  tip  of  Hull  is  located 
about  two  miles  across  the 
bay  from  Nut  Island  which 
means  wind  velocity  and 
energy  data  are  alread\ 
available,  according  to 
Morrissey. 

Ward  1  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  w  ho  is  coordinating  the 
neighborhood  meeting  with 
Morrissey  said  he  is 
considering  all  aspects  of  the 
issue. 

"I'm  going  to  listen  to 
what  my  neighbors  have  to 
say,"  Kelly  said,  adding  that 
he  has  reservations  about 
locating  wind  turbines  near 
residential  properties,  "rm 
against  them  abutting 
residential  properties.  I'm  not 
against  wind  turbines." 

Kelly  and  all  city 
councillors  recently 

considered    en,ictine    an 


ordinance  regulating  wind 
turbines  and  held  a  Nov.  1.^ 
Public  Hearing. 

The  proposed  regulations 
presented  by  Ward  2 
Councillor  Daniel  Raymondi 
and  Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  were  patterned 
after  an  ordinance  in  effect  in 
Worcester. 

The  ordinance  addresses 
height,  noise,  and  visual 
impact  and  prohibits 
advertising  on  the  structure 
which  must  be  of  neutral 
tones. 

City  Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  suggested  the 
proposal  needed  more  review 
and  changes  as  did  Ward  4 
Councillor  Jay  Davis,  who 
said,  "I  do  see  a  number  of 
questions  that  still  exist." 

Gutro  suggested  waiting 
until  citywide  wind  data  has 
been  collected  and  then, 
pinpointing  areas  most  viable 
for  wind  projects.  He  also 
suggested  a  review  of  city 
zoning  maps. 

"There  are  a  lot  of 
elements  up  in  the  air.  It's 
better  to  get  it  right  than  to  do 
it  fast.  "Gutro  said. 

The  wind  turbine  project 
proposed  by  Patriot 
Renewables.  LLC.  at  Fore 
Ri\er  would  be  located  in 
Councillor  Daniel 

Ra\mondi\  W  ard  2 

.According  to  drafts  of  the 
plan^,  the  base  of  the  wind 
turbine  structure  would  be 
the  height  of  the  Goliath  crane 
at  Fore  Ri\er.  and  the  wind 
propellers  would  be  above 
the  crane's  height. 

Raymondi  encouraged 
councillors  to  enact  an 
ordinance  to  head  ott' 
challenges  to  the  citv's 
authoritv  regarding  wind 
turbines 

Ravinondi  said  that

"I  sold  my  home  for  a  nice

*  .\.s  per  the  Resirienie  and  (art  A^tn-ment, 


that  they  could  build  a  wind 
turbine  without  a  special 
permit  "as  a  matter  of  right." 

"It  tnay  turn  out  that  way," 
Raymondi  said,  later  adding, 
"We  could  always  amend  it 
or  improve  it." 

Raymondi  noted  that  the 
most  controversial  section  of 
the  proposed  ordinance 
restricted  the  height  to  26.*> 
feet. 

"This  ordinance 

effectively  kills  this  project," 
C.  Trevor  Childs,  project 
manager  for  Patriot 
Renewables,  told  the 
Council.  The  wind  turbine 
would  be  390  feet  in  height. 

Childs  described 

company  owner  Jay 
Cashman  as  "committed  to 
Quincy.  He  has  set  up  his 
headquarters  here." 

After  the  meeting. 
Raymondi  disagreed  with 
Childs'  suggestion  that  the 
Cashman  w  ind  turbine  could 
not  be  built.  Raymondi  said 
that  the  company  could  apply 
for  a  Special  Permit  for 
extending  the  height. 


F'arlier  in  the  evening 
Childs  described  two  public 
sessions  his  ct)mpany  held 
for  Wiird  2  residents  at  the 
Fore  River  Clubhouse. 

Cliilds  said  his  company 
sent  out  7(K)0  invitations  and. 
roughly,  100  residents 
attended  each  meeting  and 
most  supported  the  project. 
"We  had  very  positive 
support," 

Former  City  Councillor 
Larry  Chretien,  also,  spoke 
in  favor  of  wind  energy,  but 
suggested  there  were  only  a 
"finite  number  of  sites  in 
Quincy." 

Chretien  is  executive 
Director  of  Mass  Lnergy;  a 
non-profit  organization 
aimed  at  developing 
renewable  energy  sources. 

"We  see  wind  power  as 
the   most  affordable  zero 


emission  energy."  said 
Chretien  adding. 

"Massachusetts  is  moving 
rather  slowly.  We  have  the 
opportunity  to  stop  the  flow 
of  dollars  going  out  of  state." 

Two  resident.  John  Mayo 
and  William  LaRaia,  spoke 
during  the  public  hearing. 

"The  thing  that  bothers 
me  is  the  si/e  of  their 
proposal,"  said  Mayo  who 
warned  that  wind  turbines 
could  disrupt  the  landscape 
much  as  billboards  did. 

"What  benefit  do  the 
citizens  get.*"  LaRaia  said, 
noting  the  Fore  River  project 
would  be  built  for  a  private 
enterprise.  "In  this  instance, 
we  should  get  a  benefit." 

City  councillors  expect  to 
revisit  the  wind  turbine 
ordinance  proposal  in  mid- 
December.

Quincy  PresUents  vs.  Honh  QmncyBea  Raiders 


THE  GAME:  Making  Memories  For  75  Years 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

When  the  2007  North 
Quincy  Red  Raiders  and 
Quincy  Presidents  meet 
Thursday  at  10  a.m.,  the  two 
schools  will  kick  of!  the  75"' 
edition  of  the  annual 
Thanksgiving  Day  game. 

This  rivalry  started  back 
in  1 933  and  with  it  began  the 
unpredictability  that  makes 
The  Game"  one  of  the  best 
Thanksgiving  Day  games  in 
the  country. 

North  Quincy,  the 
underdog,  defeated  the 
favored  Presidenis  6()  in  the 
lirst  annual  game.  Waller 
Jidy,  substituting  lor  injured 
NQ  star  Walter  (Cap)  Bryan, 
took  a  2 1 -yard  pass  from 
Arthur  (Bat)  Nelson  for  the 
lone  touchdown  as  the 
Raiders,  in  just  their  s^xond 
year  of  footba!!.  iip>ct 
Qumcy. 

North  Quincy  may  have 
won  the  lir^t  annual  game, 
but  after  the  President-,  scored 
a  late  touchdown  against 
North  in  2006  to  run  their 
current  winning  streak  to 
eight  games,  Quincy  holds  a 
41-28-5  series  lead 

The  game  has  also  been  a 
springboard  for  a  number  of 
undefeated  seasons,  for  both 
Quincy  and  North  Quincy. 

In  1966.  the  Raiders, 
coached  by  the  late  Carl 
Leone,  had  a  9-0  record,  won 
the  Greater  Boston  League 
title,  shared  the  Class  A 
crown  with  Arlington  and 
went  on  to  shut  out  Quincy, 
8-0.  The  1992,  coached  by 
Ken  McPhee  (a  2uard  on  the 

v.- 

1966  team),  had  an  11-0 
record,  won  the  Old  Colony 
League  title,  beat  Arlington 
in  the  Div.  IB  Super  Bowl 
and  shut  out  Quincy  on 
Thanksgiving.  20-0. 

The  1970  Quincy  team, 
coached  by  Hank  Conro\, 
defeated  Nonh  1 6-6  and  went 
on  to  win  the  Greater  Bt>ston 
League  title  w  ith  a  perfect  9- 
0  record. 

But  the  game  is  not  all 
about  winning  and  losing.  It 
represents,  for  many  players, 
the  last  time  that  they  will 
ever  pull  on  a  uniform  and 
line  up  to  play  organized 
football,  and  that  is 
something  that  players  and 
coaches  of  the  past  remember 
years  after  the  final  whistle 
blows. 

'Tt  is  one  of  the  best 
experiences  that  these  players 


will  everhave,"  said  McPhee, 
an  alumni  of  the  1 964.  1 965 
and  1966  games  and  head 
coach  at  North  Quincy  for 
seventeen  years.  "It  is 
something  you  never  forget 
and  it  can  be  very  influential. 
It  is  one  of  the  best,  if  not  the 
best,  rivalry  games  in  the 
state. 

"You  have  the  extra  time 
after  your  last  regular  season 
game  to  think  about 
Thanksgiving.  The  game  is 
really  like  anc^ther  season. 
And  emotionally  there  is  an 
edge  among  the  players.  The 
game,  fair  or  ni)t,  brings  with 
it  pressure  and  every  player 
wants  to  give  their  best. " 

Ron  hil,  the  Quincv- 
North  Quincy  Hall  of  Fame 
presiiient,  played  in  thicc 
Thanksgiving  Day  games 
irom  1954-56,  and  he  fondb.' 
remembers  his  experience. 

"When  1  played  at  Quincy 
we  wt)n  three  times  under 
legendary  head  coach  Bill 
Sulli  van  (18-0, 44-20  and  19- 
13).  Back  in  those  days  we 
would  have  thousands  of 
people  who  would  come  to 
the  game  and  I  know  we 
played  in  front  of  14,000 
people  one  year.  Those 
games  are  memories  you 
never  forget. 

"The  50s  Alumni  Group 
still  gets  together  to  talk  and 
reminisce  about  our  time 
playing  against  one  another 
Thanksgiving  Day  games  are 
what  you  remember  the  most. 
You  could  have  had  two 
tackles,  but  years  later  that 
number  jumps  to  ivvehe 
tackles.  That  is  just  the  way  It 
goes.  But  the  talk  always  goes 
back  to  Thanksgiving.  Those 
games  form  life-long 
memories."" 

The  unpredictability  of  the 
game  is  what  most  former 
players  remember  the  most. 
ltdoesn"t  seem  to  matter,  whii 
has  the  better  record,  or  the 
best  players,  it  always  seems 
to  come  back  to  who  w  ants  it 
more. 

■'.•\nything  can  and  will 
happen  in  the  game.""  added 
McPhee.  "You  could  be 
favored,  but  that  does  not 
mean  that  your  team  will 
come  out  on  top." 

For  sheer  excitement  and 
last-second  drama,  few.  if 
any,  football  rivalries  can 
match  Quincy-North  Quincy. 
Including  last  year's  come- 
from-behind  10-7  victory  by 


AS  THE  CITY  CELEBRATES  the  TS"  annual  Ihaiiksnivinf; 
Da>  game  between  Quincy  and  North  Quincy  this  Thursday, 
Hall  of  Fame  president  Ron  Ivil  submitted  this  photo  to  The 


Quincy,  there  have  forty 
games  that  have  been  decided 
by  one  touchdown  and 
conversion  or  less.  The  1975 
game,  a  1 5-8  win  by  North,  is 
the  only  game  that  was  won 
in  overtime.  But  more 
recently,  the  games  in  1984. 
1985.  1987,  1989,  1994  and 
last  year  have  come  down  to 
the  final  play  of  the  game. 

The  current  head  coaches 
at  Quincy  and  North,  Bob 
Noble  and  Jim  Connor,  each 
have  their  own  take  on  what 
it  means  to  coach  on 
Thanksgiving. 

"This  is  a  game  that  these 
kids,  especially,  the  senior 
class  will  remember  for 
ever,"  said  Noble  who  is  a 
perfect  8-0  on  Thanksgiving 
as  head  coach  at  Quinc\. 
"Cireat  things  seem  to  happen 
in  the  rixalry  and  this  is  the 
owQ  game  that  they  will  talk 
about  >  ears  trom  now.  1  don't 
think  you  will  find  a  bigger 
high  school  event  in  the  city 
than  this  one.  The  guys  \ou 
play  against  are  the  same  ones 
you  will  see  the  rest  of  your 
life.  That  is  what  makes  it  so 
special."' 

Coach  Connor,  a  native 
of  Pennsylvania,  will  be 
coaching  in  his  second 
Thanksgiving  Day  game,  but 
he  already  is  in  awe  of  what 
takes  place  when  these  two 


teams  get  together. 

"Not  being  from  Quincy. 
I  didn't  grasp  the  history  of 
the  game  until  I  coached  in  it 
last  year.  In  general,  it  is  an 
honor  to  be  a  part  of  it.  .As 
both  a  coach  and  a  teacher  at 
North    Quincy,    it    is    an 


Quincy  Sun  from  his  Hail  of  Fame  collection.  Ihe  photo  is  .i  "-nap

unbelievable  experience.  The 
game  is  great  for  the  plavers, 
school  and  forthecity  Itself." 
So,  fans,  young  and  old, 
dust  off  your  old  varsity 
jackets,  grab  a  hot  cup  o\ 
coffee   and  get   down   to 


Veterans  Mcmonal  Stadium 
at  1 0  p.m.  Thursday  and  root 
on  your  favorite  team, 
because  if  the  previous 
seventy-four  games  are  any 
indication,  something  special 
is  about  to  happen.

Presidents  Could  Post  9th  Straight  Win 

Can  Quincy  Continue 
Holiday  Dominance? 


By  SEAN  BRKNN AN 

Come  Thursday,  you  can 
throw  the  records  out  the 
door. 

The  Quincy  Presidents, 
who  will  take  the  field  at 
Veterans  Memorial  Stadium 
on  Thanksgiving  with  a 
disappointing  2-7  overall 
mark,  may  not  have  had  their 
best  season,  but  when  it 
comes  to  the  annual  Quincy- 
North  Quincy  game,  head 
coach  Bob  Noble's  teams 
always  seem  to  bring  their 
"A"  game. 

The  Presidents  enter  the 
75"'  annual  Thanksgiving 
Day  game  riding  an 
impressive  eight-game 
winning  streak  on  Turkey 
Day.  They  came-from- 
behind  in  the  fourth  quarter 
last  yearto  win  a  thrilling  10- 
7  contest  over  the  Red 
Raiders. 

"First  and  foremost,  when 
it  comes  to  the  Thanksgiving 
Day  game  you  have  to  throw 
the  records  away."  Noble 
said.  "We  may  have  not  had 
the  best  year  so  far  this 
seasvin,  and  it  has  been  a  little 
disappointing,  but  we  have 
been  successful  the  last  eight 
years  in  this  game,  and  that  is 
our  hope  again  this  year." 

Noble  is  being  kind  when 
he  says  that  Quincy  has  been 
successful  recently.  The 
eight-game  winning  streak 
not  withstanding,  the 
Presidents  have  gone  into  the 
game  the  last  15  years  and 
have  come  out  victorious  in 
12  of  those  contests. 

Quincy  has  held  the  Red 
Raiders  to  1 4  points  or  less  in 
all  fifteen  of  these  games, 
and  they  have  pitched 
shutouts  three  times  during 
that  period  (1997,  2004  and 
2005 ) .  Since  Noble  took  over 
the  sidelines  in  1999.  the 
Presidents  have  outscored 
North  Quincy  144  to  54  in 
the  two  city  teams  biggest 
game  of  the  season. 

"Once  the  regular  season 
ends  we  (the  coaching  staff) 
have  ten  days  to  prepare  for 
North  Quincy.  There  is  an 
advantage,  not  just  for  us, 
but  for  their  staff  as  well,  to 
watch  fibn  and  get  together  a 
game  plan  that  we  can  give  to 
our  players.  It  has  worked

the  last  eight  years. 

"Besides  winning  the  last 
eight  games,  Quincy  has  won 
12  of  15  and  there  is 
something  to  that." 

If  the  Presidents  want  to 
continue  to  enjoy  their 
Thanksgiving  Day  dinners  as 
city  champions.  Noble 
realizes  that  his  team  will 
need  to  control  the  ball 
against  a  very  good  Raider 
defense.  Last  year,  Quincy's 
offense  had  the  ability  to 
make  opposing  defenses  pay, 
be  it  in  the  run  game,  or 
through  the  air.  So  far  this 
season,  the  Presidents  have 
found  it  difficult  to  rack  up 
the  points  like  in  years  past 
(^just  87  points  scored  in  nine 
game),  but  there  have  been 
times,  specifically  against 
Nauset  High  School  (a  35-2 1 
win),  where  the  offense  has 
shown  bursts  of  its  potential 
to  score  fast  and  often. 

"If  we  want  to  come  out 
of  this  game  with  a  win,  and 
we  obviously  do,  we  are 
going  to  need  to  put  great 
emphasize  on  ball  control. 
Their  defense  has  been  good 
all  year  long  and  their  offense 
can  put  up  points. 

"So,  controlling  the  ball 
and  the  clock  and  limiting 
their  chances  on  offense  is 
the  key  for  us  this  year.  The 


longer  we  have  possession 
on  offense,  the  better  our 
chances  are  of  doing  what 
we  want  to  do  while  staying 
in  the  game  plan." 

The  guess  here  is  that 
Noble  and  the  rest  of  the 
Presidents'  coaching  staff 
will  rely  heavily  on  the 
running  of  senior  captain 
Diego  Arredondo. 

Arredondo  leads  Quincy  with 
eight  rushing  touchdowns 
this  season.  In  Quincy's  two 
wins  over  Falmouth  on  Sept. 
2 1  and  against  Nauset  on  Oct. 
26,  he  accounted  for  seven 
rushing  scores  (three  versus 
Falmouth  and  four  against 
Nauset  when  he  ran  for  111 
yards  on  18  carries). 

"Diego  has  been  great  for 
us  all  year  long  running  the 
ball  and  kicking  for  us 
(Arredondo  is  the  team's 
place  kicker  and  punter)  and 
if  we  want  to  be  successful 
controlling  the  ball  on 
Thursday,  we  are  going  to 
need  him,  and  the  rest  of  our 
backs  to  step  up." 

Other  players  who  have 
seen  time  taking  handoffs 
from  quarterback  Lance 
Peterson  include  senior  Joe 
Reggiannini  (captain), 
juniors  Max  Devoe  (one 
touchdown),  Stephan  Davis,

The  Z(5th  ANNivECSAcr 

Quincy  Presidents  vs.  Henti  Quincy  Heil  Ralters 

Raiders  Seeking  First  Holiday  Win  Since  '98 

North  Quincy  Prepared 
For  Rivalry  Game 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

One  week,  one  day  and 
one  game  at  a  time. 

That  has  been  the  mantra 
all  season  long  for  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raider  football 
program. 

Under  the  direction  of 
second- year  head  coach  Jim 
Connor,  North  enters  the 
75th  annual  Thanksgiving 
Day  game  against  the 
Quincy  Presidents  with  a  6- 
4  overall  record.  The  team's 
six  wins  -  one  non-league 
and  five  Atlantic  Coast 
League  contests  -  assures 
that  the  Raiders  will  finish 
2007  with  their  first  winning 
season  since  2001. 

But  Connor  understands 
that  when  it  comes  to  "The 
Game,"  records  can  be 
thrown  out  the  window. 

'This  is  a  rivalry  game," 
Connor  said.  "It  does  not 
matter  what  the  records  are 
heading  into  it.  We  are  go- 
ing to  need  to  be  prepared  if 
we  want  to  come  out  of  it 
with  a  victory." 

The  Raiders  may  have  the 
better  record  (Quincy  holds 
a  2-7  record),  but  the  Presi- 
dents will  line  up  on  the  turf 
at  Veterans  Memorial  Sta- 
dium riding  an  eight  game 
Thanksgiving  Day  winning 
streak.  And  don't  think  for  a 
minute  that  Connor  and  his 
team  have  forgotten  about 
last  year's  10-7  heart-break- 
ing loss,  or  that  Quincy,  un- 
der head  coach  Bob  Noble, 
is  always  ready  to  play  once 
the  whistle  blows  on  Turkey 
Day. 

"Quincy  is  much  better 
than  their  record  shows. 
They  have  had  success  in  this 
game  and  I  expect  the  same 
again  this  year.  But  we  have 
done  a  tremendous  job  all 
season  long  not  looking 
ahead  and  not  dwelling  on 
things  that  happened  in  the 
past.  We  have  one  thing  on 
our  minds  heading  into  the 
game,  and  that  is  to  prepare 
in  practice  to  get  ready  for 
what  we  may  see  from 
them." 

For  a  team  that  struggled 
last  year.  North  came  back 
this  season  with  another  year 
under  their  belts  in  Connor's 
system,  and  sometimes  that 
extra  experience  and  confi- 
dence that  comes  with  famil- 
iarity, is  all  it  takes  to  get  a 
program  moving  in  a  posi- 
tive and  successful  direction. 
This  year,  the  Raiders  re- 
turned four  of  its  top-seven 
scorers  from  2006.  Quarter- 
back Dennis  Martin,  running 
backs  Jon  Cahill  and  Danny 
Jackson  and  wide  receiver

Alex  Tragellis  have  all  con- 
tributed on  offense,  while  the 
defense  as  been  anchored  by 
the  return  of  seniors  Sekou 
Benjamin,  Dave  Thomson 
and  Marcellus  Lee. 

"We  have  great  kids  who 
believe  in  North  Quincy 
football,"  Connor  added.  "I 
have  not  had  to  battle  with 
anyone  of  them  about  buy- 
ing into  the  program.  Start- 
ing last  year,  I  thought  we 
started  to  'turn  the  comer,' 
and  this  year  we  got  better 
every  week  and  fortunately 
have  picked  up  some  wins. 

"But  the  credit  goes  to  the 
captains:  Jackson,  Tragellis, 
Thomson  and  Benjamin,  and 
the  rest  of  the  senior  class. 
They  have  stepped  up  and 
their  morale  has  been  steady 
all  year.  The  leadership  they 
have  shown  bodes  real  well 
for  this  game  and  for  the  fu- 
ture." 

Leading  the  way  on  of- 
fense has  been  Cahill  who  is 
closing  in  on  the  1  ,(X)0-yard 
mark.  He  leads  the  team  with 
eight  rushing  touchdowns, 
including  two  games 
(Somerville  and  Whitman- 
Hanson)  in  which  he  scored 
twice.  Jackson  has  found  the 
end  zone  thrice,  scoring 
twice  on  the  ground  and  once 
through  the  air.  Martin,  who 
has  played  admirably  behind 
center,  has  scored  two  rush- 
ing touchdowns  and  returned 
a  fumble  for  a  TD  on  de- 
fense. And  fellow  senior  Zac 
Deegan  has  converted  16 
point  after  attempts  and 
kicked  two  field  goals,  in- 
cluding a  game-winner  in  a 
24-22  win  over  Falmouth. 

"We  Uke  to  run  a  Wing-T 
offense  with  three  guys  car- 
rying the  ball.  The  coaching 
staff  calls  the  plays,  but  our 
core  group  of  guys  has  willed 


themselves  into  the  end  zone. 
It  doesn't  hurt  that  our  offen- 
sive line  has  been  spectacu- 
lar all  year  long." 

Connor,  a  former  offen- 
sive lineman  at  Boston  Col- 
lege, has  rotated  nine  differ- 
ent players  onto  his  0-Line, 
and  the  results  have  been 
positive.  Seniors  Greg 
Ingram,  Anthony  Dipalmo, 
Lee  and  Benjamin  along 
with  juniors  RJ  Barden,  Joe 
Benoit  and  Chris  Bergeron 
and  sophomore  Mike  Benoit 
have  been  paving  holes  for 
the  running  backs  since  the 
season  opener  against 
Somerville. 

"They  all  have  played  sig- 
nificant time  at  that  position 
and,  again,  tremendous  job 
and  with  a  number  of  under- 
classmen, the  future  looks 
bright." 

The  balance  on  offense 
( 1 1  different  players  have 
scored)  has  been  equaled  by 
the  balance  on  defense. 
North  has  allowed  just  195 
points  to  be  scored  against 
them,  and  if  you  throw  out 
the  games  against  defending 
ACL  champion  Marshfield 
(26-7  loss),  Dennis- 
Yarmouth  (28-6  loss)  and 
Plymouth  North  (28-0  loss), 
the  Raiders  are  allowing  just 
over  14  points  per  game. 

"The  biggest  strength  of 
the  defense  is  the  balance. 
The  defensive  hne  works  in 
harmony  with  the  lineback- 
ers, the  linebackers  work 
well  with  the  defense 
backfield.  We  try  to  stick 
with  a  basic  plan  and  we 
have  taken  a  'bend  don't 
break'  mentahty  and  it  seems 
to  be  working.  Coach 
Dominico  Barbudo  has  done 
a  great  job  with  them."

On  defense  senior  captain

mans  a  defensive  line  that 
can  cause  havoc  to  any

Lewis  and  Manning  have 
played  well,  while  Gilbody,

defensive  backfield. 

"Our  defense  needs  to 
play  well  for  us  to  do  what 
we  need  to  do  in  this  game," 
added  Noble.  "The  coaching 
staff  has  confidence  that  they

riie  Presidents  will  need

(league  all-star),  senior  wide

"Coach  Connor  and  his

said.  "They  have  bought  into 
what  they  have  been  told  m

their  team  is  well  balanced 
on  both  offense  and  defense. 
^  ou  need  to  give  credit  where 
it  is  due  and  they  have  done  a 
good  job  over  there." 

Quincy's  2-7  start  can 
quickly  be  swept  under  the 
rug  if  they  can  win  again  this 
yeiu"  and  that  is  something 
that  Noble  is  preaching  to  his 
team. 

"Like  1  said,  throw  away 
the  records.  This  game  is 
huge  in  the  city  and  anything 
can  happen  once  it  starts.  This 
will  probably  be  the  biggest 
football  game  any  of  these 
kids  play  and  it  should  be 
special. 

"For  the  seniors,  it  maybe 
the  last  time  they  put  on  a 
unifomi  and,  win  or  lose,  it  is 
a  game  that  they  will 
remember  years  from  now.  I 
tell  my  teams  that  great  things 
can  happen  on  Thanksgiving 
and  here  is  hoping  that  it 
happens  again  this  year  for 
our  program  and  we  can 
extend  out  winning  streak  one 
more  year."

Quincy  PresUents  vs.  Horth  Oulncy  Bet  RaUers 


Red  Raiders 
Will  Be  Ready 
For  Presidents 


I  Cont'd  On  l\r^i  21) 

on  Nov.  '■)  iteainst  Plyinoiiih 
South  and  ihc  extra  time  dur- 
ing the  bye  week  has  gixen 
C(Minorand  his  staifthe  lime 
watch  liiiii  and  prepare  ;i 
seheme  to  slop  the  Presi- 
dents. The  lirsl  order  of  busi- 
ness is  to  I'ind  a  way  to  slow 
down  Quiney  senior  running 
baek  Diego  Anedondo  who 
leads  the  Presidents  with 
eight  rushing  touchdcwns. 

"It  is  unique  (the  bye 
week).  But  we  do  not  want 
to  over-eoaeh  or  loree  any 
schemes  defensively  tliat 
could  cause  our  players 
problems,"  he  said.  "We  are 
going  to  continue  to  do  our 
thing.  I  think  we  all  know 
Quincy's  record  the  last  eight 
years,  and  we  all  remember 
last  season's  loss,  but  we 
can't  force  anything. 

"Arredondo  is  a  special 
player,  as  are  their  senior 
skill  players  like  Joe 
Reggiannini  and  Paul 
Oldham.  They  also  boasl 
several  underclassmen  who 
are  good  players,  including 
Max  Devoe.  Mark  Gilbody, 
Anthony  Raddatz  and  their 
quarterback  Lance  Peterson. 
On  defense,  players  like  Matt 
Oriol,  Zack  Olhson, 
Arredondo  and  Zack  Man- 
ning stand  oul  on  film" 

Connor  is  aware  that  the 
Presidents,  under  Noble,  like 
to  switch  up  what  offensive 
attack  they  use  almost  every 
series.  He  mentioned  their 
ability  to  go  trom  a  shotgun- 
spread  formation  to  ii  hard- 
nosed  running  attack,  and  he 
has  been  trying  to  prepare  his 
team  for  many  different 
looks. 

"They  can  run  the  tough 
inside  runs  and  they  can 
lineup  in  a  spread  formation. 
They  can  be  dangerous  either 
way  and  we  will  need  to  be 
ready  for  whatever  they 
show  us.  But  this  team  will 
be  ready  come  Thursday." 

The  one  characteristic 


that  has  not  changed  from 
this  year's  squad  and  last 
year's  team  is  an  attitude  thai 
has  quickly  seeped  inti^  the 
practices,  the  locker  room 
and  the  halls  ;ii  North  Quiney 
High  School:  a  team  with 
disci|>line  is  what  brings 
about  the  best  results. 

The  Raiders.  Ibr  the  sec- 
ond time  in  two  seasons  un- 
der Connor,  were  recently 
awarded  by  the  other 
coaches  in  the  ACL.  the 
league's  Sportsmanship 
Award,  which  is  something 
the  coach  lakes  great  pride 
in. 

'it  is  important  to  me  and 
our  staff  that  these  kids  stay 
in  line  with  the  program  we 
have  set  up.  We  told  them, 
either  we  lose  with  good  kids 
or  win  with  good  kids,  i  can 
count  on  one  hand  any  dis- 
cipline issues  we  have  had. 
They  know  that  if  one 
messes  up,  the  whole  team 
will  get  punished. 

"And  you  know  what  it 
worked,  because  there  is  a 
buzz  about  this  team.  You 
can  see  and  feel  it  at  school 
and  in  the  support  we  have 
received.  This  team  has  been 
playing  football  with  an 
edge,  but  it  has  not  affected 
their  behavior  and  the  results 
have  been  satisfying." 

At  6-4.  the  Raiders  have 
accomplished  plenty  this 
fall,  and  a  win  on  Thanksgiv- 
ing would  be  icing  on  an  al- 
ready solid  \ear.  but  Coimor 
realizes  it  is  just  a  game.  One 
that  happens  to  be  in  its  se\- 
enty-fifth  year,  but  just  a 
game  nonetheless  and  he  and 
his  staif  prepared  the  team  as 
best  they  could  Sox  w  hatex  er 
outcome  may  come  out  of  it. 
But  a  win  would  be  special. 

"It  is  an  exciting  day  for 
e\eryone:  the  players, 
coaches  and  the  fans.  It 
would  be  a  great  way  to  end 
the  year,  but  on  Thanksgiv- 
ing anything  can  happen,  so 
we  will  have  to  wait  and  see 
how  it  turns  out." 


Largest  Crowd:  1947  Game 


As  the  75""  annual 
Thanksgiving  Day  game 
approaches  tomorrow,  the 
debate  about  which  of  the 
previous  74  affairs  drew  the 
biggest  crowd  comes  down 
to  either  the  game  in  1 946  or 
1947. 

It  appears  the  1947  game 
had  the  largest  paid 
attendance,  reported  to  have 
been  18,003.In  1946,  the  paid 


attendance  was  16,065. 

Many  estimate  that  close 
to  25 ,000  saw  the  1947  game, 
if  you  count  those  who 
watched  from  the  walls  and 
trees,  and  those  who  hned 
the  bus  yard  where  the 
MET  A  garage  now  stands. 

The  biggest  previous 
crowd  prior  to  1946  was  the

The  Right  FIT 


9,  My  persor 
•  always  rei 
although  Vt 


personal  trainer 
reminds  me 
ilthough  I'm  not  sore 
after  all  of  my  workouts,  I 
am  still  making  progress.  I 
trust  my  personal  trainer; 
however,  when  I  exercise 
on  my  own,  how  do  I  know 
if  my  workouts  are  really 
working? 

A,  The  effectiveness  of  a 
•  workout  routine 

should  be  determined  by  the 
results  you  see  and  not  just 
how  you  feel.  Feeling 
exhausted  and  sore  after  a 
workout  is  a  physical 
response  to  the  exercise  per- 
formed, but  should  not  be 
used  as  a  major  measure  of 
success. 

The  workouts  you  are 
completing  with  your  per- 
sonal trainer  should  be 
designed  to  be  performed 
with  a  suggested  number  of 
sets,  repetitions  and  weight. 
These  exercises  should  be 
specific  to  your  goals,  and 
you  and  your  trainer  can 
decide  what  will  work  best 
for  you. 

When  working  out  without 
your  trainer,  detemiining 
how  and  when  to  change 
your  workout  program  can 
be  tricky,  but  you  can  use  the 
acronym  FIT  to  help  you 
out.  Designing  your  work- 
out with  the  right  Frequency, 
Intensity  and  Type  can  keep 
you  working  toward  your 
goals  and  feeling  confident 
in  the  effectiveness  of  your 
workouts. 

The  frequency  is  how 
often  you  arc  completing 
your  workout  program.  One 
to  three  times  a  week  may  be 
recommended  for  strength 
training,  while  a  frequency 
of  up  to  seven  days  a  week 
may  be  recommended  for 
specific  cardiovascular 

workouts.     It     is     equally 
important  not  to  overdo  your 


workouts  in  order  to  achieve 
that  feeling  of  soreness. 
Soreness  could  be  a  sign  of 
overtraining  or  lack  of 
recovery  time  between 
workouts. 

The  intensity  of  your 
workout  is  important  in 
developing  a  program  that 
will  not  only  help  you  see 
results,  but  also  keep  you 
safe.  The  stress  you  place  on 
your  body  through  the  inten- 
sity of  your  workouts  is  an 
integral  part  of  your  work- 
out. An  intensity  too  high 
could  cause  you  to  feel  the 
soreness  you  seek,  but  it  can 
also  mean  you  are  working 
yourself  too  hard. 

For  example,  if  the  work- 
out calls  for  you  to  do  squats 
with  dumbbells,  choose  the 
right  weight  by  starting  light 
and  progressing  after  com- 
pleting a  few  workouts  safe- 
ly and  with  the  correct  tech- 
nique. This  may  require  you 
to  complete  the  squats  with- 
out the  dumbbells  at  first, 
and  then  increase  the  inten- 
sity by  adding  weights. 

The  type  of  exercise  also 
should  not  be  ignored.  Pre- 
designed workouts  such  as 
the  ones  in  magazines  usual- 
ly give  you  a  goal  and  expla- 
nation of  what  the  workout 
was  designed  to  accomplish; 
however,  let  your  trainer 
help  you.  Be  sure  that  the 
workout  you  are  completing 
is  designed  to  fit  YOUR 
needs.  If  strength  is  your 
goal,  then  be  sure  the  work- 
out has  been  structured  to 
improve  strength  and  not 
just  cardiovascular 

endurance  or  flexibility. 

Keep  these  factors  in  mind 
when  trying  new  workouts 
and  use  them  as  a  guide  to 
help  you  reach  your  goals.

THE  REPLACEMENTS 

If  missing  teeth  are  not  re-      tooth  decay  and  gum  disease 


placed,  it  can  greatly  compro- 
mise a  person's  ability  to  eat 
and  talk  properly.  To  avoid 
these  unwanted  outcomes,  the 
dentist  will  likely  recommend 
a  removable  partial  denture  or 
"bridge"  if  some  natural  teeth 
remain  in  the  mouth.  The.se 
prosthetics  consist  of  replace- 
ment teeth  attached  to  a  pink 
or  gum-colored  plastic  base 
and  metal  framework  that 
holds  the  denture  in  place  in 
the  mouth.  If  all  teeth  are  miss- 
ing due  to  decay,  injury,  or  ill- 
ness, a  full  denture  can  be  fit- 
ted to  the  mouth,  eight  to 
twelve  weeks  after  all  remain- 
mg  teeth  are  removed.  In  the 
meantime,  patients  are  outfit- 
ted with  "inunediate"  dentures 
untiJ  the  "conventionaJ"  den- 
tures are  ready  for  permanent 
use. 

Brushing  twice  a  day  and 
flossing  daily  helps  prevent 


that  can  lead  to  tooth  loss.  Pre- 
ventive dentistry  is  our  goal  for 
every  patient.  It  involves  daily 
care,  good  nutrition,  and  peri- 
odic check-ups  and  cleaning 
that  maintain  good  dental  health 
already  achieved.  Oral  health  is 
a  long-term  commitment  we 
share  with  each  patient.  Please 
call  617^79-6220  to  schedule 
an  appointment.  We're  located 
at  44  Greenleaf  Street,  where 
we  take  pride  in  our  ability  to 
provide  quality  dental  care  in  a 
relaxed  and  comfortable  envi- 
ronment. We  offer  the  services 
of  anesthesiology  with  a  fully 
trained  and  qualified  anesthesi- 
ologist. Visit  us  on  the  web  at 
www.quincvdentist.com. 

P.S.  Beneath  the  place 
where  missing  teeth  once  stood, 
shrinking  alveolar  bone  creates 
hollows  in  the  face  that  make  a 
person  look  older  and  less 
healthy.

Gobble  Up  Traditional  TVirkey  Temptations 


It's  that  time  of  year  when 
visions  of  combread  stuffing, 
green  been  casseroles  and 
pumpkin  pie  start  dancing  in 
your  head. 

Thanksgiving  Day  is  an 
opportunity  for  many  people 
to  enjoy  special  foods  that 
come  around  only  once  a 
year.  Unfortunately,  it's  also 
a  time  of  year  where  many 
people  give  up  on  the  healthy 
habits  they've  adapted 
throughout  the  year. 

'My  successful  members 
know  that  they  can  enjoy 
Thanksgiving  Day  without 
hindering  the  success  that 
they've  achieved,"  said 
Shama  Borsellino,  manager 
of  the  Weight  Watchers  loca- 
tion in  Quincy. 

"I  tell  my  members  that 


it's  important  not  to  deprive 
themselves  of  the  dishes  that 
they  look  forward  to 
throughout  the  year,  as  long 
as  they  keep  in  mind  the 
healthy  lifestyle  they've 
been  living  up  until  now." 

Here  are  some  tips  to 
health  maintain  control  on 
Thanksgiving  Day: 

•  Don't  starve  before  the 
feast.  Starving  for  a  big  din- 
ner can  backfire  because  it 
can  result  in  overeating.  In- 
stead, eat  a  snack  such  as  a 
cup  of  non-fat  yogurt,  half  a 
small  bagel  with  humus,  or 
a  piece  of  fruit  to  avoid  feel- 
ing ravenous. 

•  Map  out  your  plate.  Try 
to  fill  half  of  the  plate  with 
vegetables,  and  split  the 
other  half  between  meats  and

starches.  This  will  help  pri- 
oritize whether  to  get  sweet 
potatoes,  stuffing  or  maca- 
roni and  cheese,  or  a  combi- 
nation of  smaller  portions  of 
all  three. 

•  Don't  forget  the  activ- 
ity. Walking  is  a  great  way 
to  bum  some  extra  cavities 
during  the  holidays.  In  addi- 
tion, if  you  walk  together  as 
a  family,  it  provides  a  chance 
to  catch  up  with  each  other 
in  an  undistracted  environ- 
ment. 

It's  important  to  remem- 
ber that  Thanksgiving  is  just 
one  day,  not  a  whole  week. 
One  large  meal  won't  pile  on 
the  pounds,  but  seven  days 
of  leftovers  tends  to  add  up. 

"Many  people  think  that  if 
they  go  off  course  for  one 
day,  then  all  of  their  efforts 
are  down  the  drain," 
Borsellino  said.  "It's  impor- 
tant not  to  let  one  day  sabo- 
tage your  long-term  efforts 
and  goals." 

Here  are  some  ways  to  get 
back  on  track  the  day  after 
Thanksgiving: 

•  Divide  and  Conquer. 
Take  out  the  Ziploc  bags  and 


containers.  Freeze  individual 
portions  of  favorite  dishes  so 
Thanksgiving  can  be  en- 
joyed in  moderation  for  a 
long  time. 

•  Send  the  leftovers 
home  with  your  guests. 
They  will  appreciate  not 
cooking  for  one  day  and 
you'll  appreciate  not  being 
tempted  by  leftover  biscuits. 

•  Create  some  leftover 
magic.  By  day  there,  it's 
easy  to  get  bored  with  an- 
other turkey  and  stuffing 
sandwich,  but  with  a  little 
abra-cadabra  leftovers  can  be 
turned  into  healthy  meals. 
Some  examples  include: 

•  Cuban  Style  Ham 

•  Rice  and  Beans 

•  Turltey  and  Veggie 
Omelette 

•  Asian-Style  Salad 

All  of  the  recipes  are 
available  upon  request  and 
are  in  the  November-Decem- 
ber issue  of  Weight  Watchers 
Magazine.

Stars 


ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  Restless  Rams  and  Ewes 
might  want  to  let  others  fin- 
ish a  current  project  while 
they  start  something  new.  But 
if  you  do,  you  could  risk  los- 
ing out  on  a  future  opportuni- 
ty. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  The  Bovine 's  creative 
forces  start  revving  up  as  you 
plan  for  the  upcoming  holi- 
days. Some  practical  aspects 
also  emerge,  especially 
where  money  is  involved. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Moments  of  doubt  dis- 
rupt your  otherwise  clear 
sense  of  purpose.  Don't 
ignore  them.  They  could  be 
telling  you  not  to  rush  into 
anything  until  you  know 
more  about  it. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  A  planned  trip  might 
have  to  be  delayed.  Plan  to 
use  this  new  free  time  to 
update  your  skills  and  your 
resume  so  you'll  be  ready 
when  a  new  job  opportunity 
opens. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
A  flood  of  holiday  party  bids 
from  business  contacts 
allows  you  to  mix  work  and 
pleasure.  Your  knowledge 
plus  your  Leonine  charm 
wins  you  a  new  slew  of 
admirers. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  An  unexpected 
act  by  a  colleague  compli- 
cates an  agreement,  causing 
delays  in  implementing  it. 
Check  out  the  motive  for  this 
move:    It's    not    what    you 


might  suspect. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 
October  22)  You  might  want 
to  cut  ties  with  an  ingrate 
who  seems  to  have  forgotten 
your  past  generosity.  But 
there  might  be  a  reason  for 
this  behavior  that  you  should 
know  about.  Ask. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21 )  Be  careful  not 
to  set  things  in  stone.  Much 
could  happen  over  the  next 
several  days  that  will  make 
you  rethink  some  decisions 
and  maybe  change  them. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  2 1 )  Your 
plans  to  help  provide  holiday 
cheer  for  the  less  fortunate 
inspire  others  to  follow  your 
generous  example.  Expect 
welcome  news  by  week's 
end. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  You're  in 
your  glory  as  you  start  plan- 
ning for  the  holiday  season 
ahead.  But  leave  time  to  deal 
with  a  problem  that  needs  a 
quick  and  fair  resolution. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  The  upcoming 
holiday  season  provides  a 
perfect  setting  for  strength- 
ening relationships  with  kin 
and  others.  A  new  contact  has 
important  information. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Instead  of  fretting 
over  a  cutting  remark  by  a  co- 
worker, chalk  it  up  to  an  out- 
burst of  envy  of  your  well- 
respected  status  among  both 
your  colleagues  and  supjcri- 
ors. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
instinctively  know  when  to 
be  serious  and  when  to  be 
humorous  —  attributes 
everyone  finds  endearing.

Lawrence  J.  Burkard,  84 

Retired  Machinist  Boston  Gears  Works 


Christmas  Cantata  Dec.  4 
At  Houghs  Neck  Church 


A  funeral  Mass  for 
Lawrence  J.  "Bud"  Burkard, 
84,  of  North  Weymouth,  for- 
merly of  Quincy,  a  retired 
machinist  for  Boston  Gear 
Works,  was  celebrated  Mon- 
day in  St.  Jerome's  Church, 
North  Quincy. 

Mr.  Burkard  died  Nov.  15 
at  the  South  Shore  Hospital 
in  South  Weymouth. 

Bom,  raised  and  educated 
in  Quincy  Point,  he  had  lived 
in  North  Weymouth  for  56 
years. 

He  served  in  the  Euro- 
pean Theatre  of  Operations 
during  World  War  II  with  the 
733rd  Field  Artillery  Battal- 
ion, U.S.  Army. 

He  was  a  retired  machin- 
ist and  long-time  employee 
of  Boston  Gear  Works  in 
Wollaston. 

One  of  the  original  season 
ticket  holders  of  the  New 


England  Patriots,  Mr. 
Burkard  was  an  avid  fan  of 
the  Boston  Red  Sox. 

He  enjoyed  playing  base- 
ball, hockey  and  football  in 
his  younger  years  in  Quincy. 

He  was  also  a  talented 
musician,  artist  and  crafts- 
man. 

Son  of  the  late  Otto  and 
Maude  (Haynes)  Burkard,  he 
is  survived  by  his  wife  of  56 
years,  Frances  (Richardi) 
Burkard;  a  son,  Michael  L. 
Burkard  of  Weymouth;  two 
daughters,  Heidi  F.  Flanagan 
of  Whitman  and  Gretchen  A. 
McHugh  of  Whitman;  nine 
grandchildren;  and  many 
nieces  and  nephews. 

He  was  the  brother  of  the 
late  Caroline  Primavera. 

Funeral  arrangements 
were  made  by  the  McDonald 
Funeral  Home,  South 
Weymouth. 


The  adult  and  youth  choirs 
of  the  Houghs  Neck  Congre- 
gational Church  will  present 
"Bom  a  Savior,  Bom  a  King," 
a  Christmas  cantata  on  Tues- 
day, Dec.  4  at  7  p.m.  at  the 
church. 

All  are  welcome  to  attend 
this  free  concert. 

"The  cantata  explores 
through  music  the  contradic- 
tion of  Christ's  birth  in 
Bethlehem,"  said  Choir  Di- 
rector Lois  Zulauf. 

"How  could  a  child  bom 
of  such  humble  surroundings 
be  the  promised  savior  and 


king?  And  how  could  a  baby 
be  the  one  whom  the  proph- 
ets had  long  promised  would 
vanquish  the  enemy  and  de- 
liver God's  people,"  Zulauf 
added. 

Refreshments  will  be 
served  following  the  perfor- 
mance. 

Located  at  310  Manet 
Ave.,  Houghs  Neck  Congre- 
gational Church  is  handi- 
capped accessible.

Morrissey  Votes  For  Emergency 
Home  Heating  Assistance 


The  State  Senate  recently 
acted  to  avert  a  home  heat- 
ing crisis  by  unanimously 
approving  $15  million  in 
state  funding  to  help  more 
than  lOO.OOO  elderly  resi- 
dents and  low-income  fami- 
lies stay  warm  this  winter. 

The  emergency  appro- 
priation will  supplement  the 
federal  Low  Income  Home 
Energy  Assistance  Program 
(LIHHAF)  and  help  eligible 
households  remain  finan- 
cially stable  during  the  cold 
winter  months. 

"People  should  not  have 
to  choose  between  food  for 
their  children  and  heat  to 
keep  them  warm,"  Senate 
President  Therese  Murray 
(D-Plymouth)  said.  "There 
are  too  many  families  due  to 


have  their  heat  turned  off. 
and  rising  energy  co.sts  are 
not  helping  the  situation. 
With  this  money,  we  are 
reaching  out  to  families  in 
need  and  helping  them  get 
through  what  is  expected  to 
be  a  very  tough  winter." 

Senator  Michael 

Morrissey  (D-Quincy),  co- 
chair  of  the  Joint  Committee 
on  Telecommunications, 
Utilities  and  Energy,  also 
supported  the  appropriation. 

"Higher  oil  prices  and  re- 
ducetl  assistance  have  cre- 
ated a  critical  situation  for 
many  Massachusetts  house- 
holds," he  said.  "The  money 
we  approved  today  will  go  a 
long  way  toward  bridging 
the  gap  in  federal  funding 
and  keeping  families  warm 
this  winter." 


The  Senate  is  joined  by 
the  House  and  the 
Governor's  Office  in  making 
the  emergency  state  funding 
available  forLIHEAP,  which 
operates  every  year  from 
Nov.  1  through  April  30. 

The  money  will  be  fun- 
neled  to  the  Department  of 
Housing  and  Community 
Development  for  distribution 
to  non-profit,  community 
action  agencies  across  the 
state  that  accept  applications 
for  assistance.  The  agencies 
then  make  payments  directly 
to  utilities  or  landlords  on 
behalf  of  the  eligible  house- 
holds. 

Homeowners  and  tenants 
with  incomes  up  to  200  per- 
cent of  the  poverty  level  are 
eligible  for  the  fuel  assis- 
tance funding. 


Crowley,  Patrol  Officers 
Charges  Dismissed  By  Judge 


Another  round  in  the  long 
feud  between  Police  Chief 
Robert  Crowley  and  the 
Quincy  Police  Patrol  Offic- 
ers Association  has  ended  in 
a  tie. 

Charges  and  counter- 
charges brought  against 
Crowley  and  Patrol  Officer 
Michael  O'Brien  have  been 


dismissed  by  Brockton  Dis- 
trict Court  Clerk  Magistrate 
Kevin  Creedon. 

The  case  started  in  August 
when  O'Brien  was  ticketed 
by  Sgt.  Michael  O'Shea  for 
driving  his  cruiser  after  his 
license  had  expired.  O'Shea 
said  Crowley  order  him  to 


ticket  O'Brien. 

President  Bruce  Tail  of 
the  Patrol  Officers  Associa- 
tion then  issued  Crowley  a 
citation,  claiming  that  the 
chief  knew  O'Brien's  license 
had  expired  and  set  him  up 
for  the  ticket  by  ordering  him 
to  drive.

tor of  the  Family  Project  at

stance abuse.

State,  called  Family  Project 
an  innovative  treatment  of- 
fered to  individuals  with  al- 
cohol or  drug  abuse  to  see  if

seling leads  to  more  sobriety.

No  Court  Yet  For  Woman 
In  Hospital  Drug  Case 


Court  arraignment  is  ex- 
pected shortly  for  a  woman 
charged  with  selling  drugs 
from  a  most  unusual  and  un- 
witting crack  house  —  a  bed 
at  Quincy  Medical  Center. 

Jonna  Marks,  aka 
Costello,  39,  of  Quincy  was 
accused  of  possession  and 
distribution  of  heroin  and 
possession  of  marijuana  af- 
ter police  raided  her  hospital 
room  Nov.  14. 

Detectives  confiscated 
seven  bags  of  heroin,  a  scale 


used  to  weigh  the  drugs,  a 
quantity  of  marijuana  and 
$344  in  cash  hut  did  not  ar- 
rest her  since  she  was  under 
hospital  care. 

Marks  had  been  hospital- 
ized for  an  unidentified  ill- 
ness for  nearly  two  weeks 
when  police  of  the  drug  con- 
trol unit  received  a  tip  that 
she  was  dealing  heroin  from 
the  hospital  bed. 

Detective  saw  a  man  visit 
Marks  briefly  then  go  to  a  car 
in  the  parking  lot  where  they 


found  him  and  a  companion 
preparing  a  heroin  fi\  The 
men  told  police  Marks  had 
sold  them  the  heroin. 

A  search  of  Marks*  room 
at  the  hospital  turned  up  the 
drug  layout.  She  checked  out 
of  the  hospital  shortly  after 
the  search. 

Assistant  Clerk  Magis- 
trate Robert  Bloom  in 
Quincy  District  Court  said 
Tuesday  afternoon  that 
Marks  had  not  yet  made  a 
court  appearance.

FoUett  Street  Re-Zoning 
Before  Council  Monday 


r 


CR^B  IRE  i;  &  1 AFLYN     v. 


W'S  Q, 


Ordinance  Committee 
Chairman  Jay  Davis  said  that 
his  committee  will  likely  re- 
view and  approve  the  re-zon- 
ing of  the  FoUett  Street  prop- 
erty in  Quincy  Point  at 
Monday's  meeting. 

The  final  decision  will  be 
made  by  the  City  Council, 
which  recently  received  no- 
tice that  the  Planning  Board 
recommended  the  re-zoning. 

City  Council  approval 
would  re-zone  the  site  from 


Industrial  A  to  Planned  Unit 
Development  or  PUD  and 
allow  development  of  resi- 
dential housing  or  similar 
complexes  on  the  parcels  lo- 
cated at  40-76  and  78-112 
Follett  St. 

The  issue  is  highly  con- 
troversial in  the  Quincy 
Point  area.  Residents  on  both 
sides  of  the  issue  attended  an 
Oct.  1 8  public  hearing  on  the 
re-zoning.

Some  300  residents 
signed  petitions  opposing  the 
re-zoning.  At  a  public  hear- 
ing, opponents  said  they  fear 
the  PUD  designation  will 
open  the  densely  populated 
area  to  over-development 
and  high-rise  complexes. 

At  the  same  meeting,  sup- 
porters of  the  PUD  designa- 
tion said  that  the  current  zon- 
ing leaves  the  neighborhood 
at  more  risk.

Happy  50th,  Yakoo

YAKOO 


YACUBIAN 


FREDERICKSON 


omeone  .special  is  having  a  special  birthday 
tomorrow. 
The  Yakoo.  His  50'". 
He's    had    his    bumps 
getting  to  that  milestone. 

But  the  beloved  symbol 
of  North  Quincy  High 
School  made  it  and  will  be 
honored  at  a  birthday  party 
starting  at  7  p.m.  in  the 
Tirrell  Room  at  the  Quincy 
Lodge  of  Elks. 

The  Yakoo  was  born  in 
November  1957  when  the 

NQHS  student  council  was  seeking  a  symbol  for  the 
school.  One  to  appropriately  represent  North  Quincy's 
strong  school  spirit,  and  pride.  And  its  Red  Raiders 
sport  teams. 

Long-time  friends  and  classmates  Allan  Yacubian 
and  Peter 

Fredericksen  got 
together  and  the 
Yakoo  became 
that  special 
symbol. 

Yacubian  was 
the  model  and  for 

whom  Yakoo  was  named.  Fredericksen,  the  creator, 
drew  Yacubian \s  profile  for  that  of  Yakoo's. 

Yacubian  is  now  a  well-known  Wollaston  dentist. 
Fredericksen,  a  talented  artist,  is  a  retired  Milton 
schoolteacher  and  lives  in  Randolph. 

Yacubian  is  of  Armenian  decent  but  the  Yakoo 
depicts  a  caricature  of  a  stem  Native  American  with  a 
feathered  headband,  carrying  a  stone  hammer  and  a 
NQHS  pennant  in  a  moving  forward  stance. 

Back  in  1 99 1  critics  claimed  he  was  a  racial  stereotype 
offensive  to  Native  Americans. 

They  said  the  hammer  was  a  tomahawk  and  saw  the 
figure  projecting  a  fighting   stance.  Yacubian, 
Fredericksen  and  five  decades  of  students  see  it  quite 
differently. 
As  Yacubian  notes: 

"The  hammer  denotes  hard  work.  His  (Yakoo' s)  look 
is  that  of  determination  and  perseverance.  Critics  have 
miscalculated  the  whole  thing." 

In  a  booklet  he  had  published  to  commemorate 
Yakoo's  50*  birthday,  Yacubian  notes  North  Quincy  is 
a  small  high  school  and  adds: 

"Through  its  determination  and  fight  and  its  legendary 
school  spirit,  the  school  became  a  very  successful 
underdog. 

"Pete  wanted  to  show  this  perseverance  and  hard 
work... he  wanted  a  raider,  a  warrior  who  reflected 
working  the  land  and  being  committed  to  hard  work ...  to 
portray  this  hard  work  this  symbol  should  have  a  tool, 
not  a  weapon. . .a  stone  hammer. 

"Pete  never  placed  a  tomahawk  or  hatchet  in  Yakoo' s 
hand.  In  fact  he  avoided  using  a  bow  and  arrow  and 
nowhere  do  you  see  a  knife.  The  Yakoo  overcomes  with 


hard  work,  not  with  weapons." 

The  Yakoo  is  a  survivor.  He  has  been  shot  at  through 
the  years  by  critics  trying  to  banish  him  as  an  offensive 
racial  stereotype. 

In  199 1  NQHS  students  rallied  behind  him  in  a 
democratic  process  to  determine  his  fate. 

They  invited  supporters  and  opponents  to  speak  to 
them  on  whether  Yakoo  should  stay  or  go.  Among  them 
were  Native  Americans. 

Jeff  Hanley  of  North  Dakota  Chippwa  Indian  decent 
and  director  of  Harvard  University's  American  Program 
thought  Yakoo  should  go. 

"A  group  of  people,"  he  said,  "have  been  reduced  to 
a  mascot.  It  perpetuates  racial  stereotype." 

But  Louell  Falls  of  Sioux  Indian  decent  and  originally 
from  South  Dakota  came  on  from  New  Mexico  to  speak 
in  favor. 

"The  students  have  so  much  pride  behind  the  mascot 
that  I  can't  understand  the  controversy,"  she  said.  "I 
don't  find  anything  derogatory  about  it." 

The  kids  listened  to  both  sides  and  then  took  the  issue 
to  the  ballot  box. 

Results:  88  percent  of  those  voting  favored  keeping 
the  Yakoo,  as  he  was. .  .7.8  percent  favored  keeping  him 
with  some  change.  Only  25  students  voted  to  ban  him. 
In  1995,  the  U.S.  Department  of  Education  backed 
the  kids,  ruling  that  the  Yakoo  image  did  not  violate  the 
U.S.  Civil  Rights  Act. 

Quincy  High  School  alumni  and  students  joined 
forces  with  NQHS  grads  and  students  in  the  cause. 

The  two  schools  are  still  rivals  on  the  playing  field. 
But  friends  off.  The  Yakoo  has  helped  bring  this  new 
relationship  about.  So  have  the  North  Quincy  Boosters 
Club  and  the  Quincy  High  School  1950s  Football 
Alumni. 
Quincy  High  School  Principal  Frank  Santoro,  a  NQHS 

grad,   and  Jack 
Raymer,  former 
Quincy  High  head 
football  coach  and 
graduate  are  co- 
chairing         the 
birthday 
celebration. 
They  plan  a  low-key,  informal  get-together  without 
speeches.  A  fun  night.  Tickets  ($25)  will  be  available  at 
the  door.  Proceeds  to  North  and  Quincy  High  School 
programs. 

There  will  be  Quincy  and  North  Quincy  coaches, 
principals,  teachers,  players,  students  and  other 
supporters  getting  together  tomorrow  night  in  tribute  to 
Yakoo. 

And,  of  course,  Yacubian  and  Fredericksen  will  be 
there,  but  not  looking  for  the  spotlight. 

They  want  the  tribute  to  go  to  Yakoo,  the  symbol  of 
NQHS  pride  and  spirit. 

For  a  half-century  students  have  placed  and  kept 
Yakoo  on  a  pedestal  of  beloved  esteem  and  respect. 
Yakoo's  critics  just  don't  get  it.

Donate  That  Cartridge,  Save  The  Environment 


It  takes  1 .000  years  for  an 
ink  or  laser  toner  cartridge  to 
decompose  in  a  landfill  and 
the  number  of  cartridges 
thrown  away  in  a  year  is 
enough  to  circle  the  earth. 

Now  you're  able  to  get  rid 
of  those  old  cartridges  and 
give  the  environment  and 
education  a  boost  at  the  same 
time. 


Simply  take  your  used 
cartridges  and  donate  them 
to  North  Quincy  High 
School,  which  will  receive 
$3  apiece  from  Staples, 
where  they  can  be  refilled 
and  reused. 

The  money  goes  to  edu- 
cation in  North  Quincy.  You 
have  kept  one  more  item  of 
long-term  clutter  out  of  the 


landfill.  And  the  environ- 
ment is  given  a  little  breath- 
ing space.

Asks  Koch  To  Keep  City  On  Solid  Financial  Ground 


Mr.  Koch,  1  did  not  vote 
for  you  for  Mayor  because  I 
believed,  I  still  believe, 
Mayor  Phelan  has  done  a 
conimendable  job.  He  has 
put  Quincy  back  into  a  very 


strong  financial  foundation 
again,  as  one  strong  ex- 
ample. 

However,  Mr  Koch,  you 
are  the  people's  choice,  and 
I  respect  that.  All  1  ask  of  you 


is  to  continue  to  keep  Quincy 
on  solid  financial  ground  and 
do  not  give  in  to  unions'  de- 
mands. 

Remember  that  they  work 
for  us,  and  not  we  work  for

Last,  but  not  least,  do 
what  is  right  for  the  city,  no 
less.  Thank  you.

Quincy's 
Yesterdays 

Delayed  Real  Estate 
Bills  On  The  Way 

By  FRANK  McCAULEY 

Mayor  Tohin  has  promised  that  Quincy' s  long  awaited 
property  tax  hills  will  be  in  the  mail  (Thursday,  Nov.  30). 

But  City  Auditor  Charles  L.  Shea  

isn't  that  sure. 

"When  are  tax  bills  going  out?" 
The  Quincy  Sun  inquired  at  noon 
Tuesday. 

"In  48  hours."  said  Mayor  Tobin. 

"Right  Charlie?" 

"Within  a  few  days  hopefully,"  said  Auditor  Shea. 

"In  48  hours,"  repeated  Mayor  Tobin. 

"Within  a  few  days,  hopefully,"  repeated  Auditor  Shea. 

Tobin  got  in  the  final  words.  "The  bills  are  going  out  in  4S 
hours,"  he  declared. 

Shea  willingly  assumed  blame  for  the  fact  that  real  property 
tax  bills  have  been  delayed  while  the  city  switched  from 
manual  to  automated  procedures  in  calculating  them. 

Mayor  Tobin  said  the  city  is  not  that  far  off  last  year's 
schedule  in  sending  out  the  bills. 

$6.8  MILLION  TO  WOIJ.ASTON  LUTHERAN

The  Wollaston  Lutheran  Church  has  been  granted

Development  for  construction  of  an  eight-story  elderly 
housing  project  on  land  under  option,  adjacent  to  WJDA. 

Rev.  Frank  Bauer,  pastt)r  and  I.  Bradford  Hutchinson, 
president  of  the  congregation,  said  that  in  adtliiion  to  the 
major  grant  from  Section  202-iund  reservation,  the  spi>nsois

Tasty,  Easy  Clam  Fritters 


Our  family  likes  almost  any  kind  of  frit- 
ter. My  mother  made  them  out  of  everything 
from  siring  beans,  zucchini  and  many  oth- 
ers. 

Today's  recipe  is  for  clam  fritters  which 
are  a  family  favorite,  I  usually  use  the  fresh 
minced  clams  from  the  supermarket.  But 
canned  minced  or  chopped  clams  can  al.so 
be  u.sed. 

CLAM  FRITTERS 

2  egg  yolks  (beaten) 

1/2  cup  milk 

I  carton  fresh  minced  or  chopped  clams 

or  2-7  ounce  cans 

1  cup  bread  crumbs 

2  teaspoons  fresh  chopped  parsley 


salt  and  pepper  to  taste 

2  egg  whites  (beat  until  stiff) 

vegetable  oil  for  frying 

Mix  the  egg  yolks,  milk,  clams,  bread 
crumbs  and  parsley.  Fold  in  the  egg  whites, 
salt  and  pepper. 

In  a  frying  pan  and  in  hot  oil,  fry  the  frit- 
ters turning  until  brown.  Drain  on  paper 
towel  and  keep  in  warming  oven  until  ready 
to  eat  unless  eaten  immediately.  (1  use  about 
a  tablespoon  if  I  want  a  small  fritter,  or  a 
quarter  measuring  cup  for  a  larger  one. 

PS.  A  good  way  to  serve  these  for  guests 
is  placing  the  fritters  in  a  clam  shell  as  an 
appetizer  and  keep  them  in  a  warming  oven 
on  a  cookie  sheet.

SCCIAI, 


Author  To  Discuss  New 
Sacco  And  Vanzetti  Book  Dec.  6 


Arthur  And  Joan  Giordani 
Celebrate  50th  Anniversary 

Arthur  and  Joan  (DulTv) 


AuthorBruce  Watson  will 
discuss  his  new  book  "Sacco 
and  Vanzetti:  The  Men,  the 
Murders,  and  the  Judgment 
of  Mankind",  the  first  study 
and  reevaluatiom  of  the  fa- 
mous case  in  a  generation  at 
the  Quincy  Historical 
Society's  meeting,  Thursday , 
Dec.  6,  at  7:30  p.m.  at  the 
Adams  Academy,  8  Adams 
Street,  Quincy  Center. 

The  case  is  filled  with  lo- 
cal connections:  In  1920  two 
men  were  murdered  during 
payroll  roberty  in  Braintree. 
Immigrants  Nicola  Sacco  and 


Bartolomeo  Vanzetti  were 
charged  with  the  murders, 
and  the  subsequent  trial,  ap- 
peals, and  eventual  execu- 
tions sparked  international 
attention  and  controversy. 
One  of  the  murder  victims, 
two  lawyers  for  the  defense, 
and  the  trial  jury  foreman 
were  Quincy  residerits. 

Watson  strives  to  treat  the 
case  in  all  its  complexity. 
Arguing  nietlTcr  for  guilt  or 
innocence.  Watson  will  take 
the  audience  through  Sacco 
and  Vanzetti  "s  story,  set  that 
story  in  the  various  contexts 


of  their  time,  and  also  point 
out  some  striking  compari- 
sons to  the  present,  in  what  is 
a  lingering  mystery  and  fas- 
cinating study  in  human  na- 
ture and  politics. 

The  New  Yorker  called 
Watson's  approach  "'unusu- 
ally even-handed,"  and  the 
New  York  Times  said  he 
"does  a  great  service  in  res- 
cuing fact  from  the  ha/e  of 
legend." 

The  public  is  welcome. 
There  is  no  charge  for 
admissioin.  A  book  signing 
will  follow  the  talk.

healthy  diets  will  be  available 
for  tasting  and  recipes  will 
be  provided. 

According  to  some 
physicians  and  nutrition 
experts,  the  right  food  choices 
can  reduce  the  risk  of 
developing  cancer  and 
improve  the  chances  of 
recovery  by  strengthening  the 
immune  system  and 
establishing  weight  control. 

The  immune  system  is 
considered  critically 
important  in  fighting  cancer. 
As  a  result,  nutrition  experts 
and  registered  dietitians  at 
The  Cancer  Project  designed 
the  Food  for  Life  program 
which  identifies  foods  that 
are  high  in  immune-boosting 
nutrients. 

Healthy  weight  control  is, 
also,  considered  essential  in 


warding  off  a  variety  of 
chronic  diseases,  including 
cancer.  Proponents  believe 
the  fiber  and  nutrient-rich 
dishes  in  The  Food  for  Life 
program  will  help 
participants  maintain  a 
healthy  weight. 

The  Cancer  Project  is  a 
non-profit  organization 
committed  to  teaching  people 
about  the  benefits  of  a  healthy 
diet  forcancer  prevention  and 
survival. 

Registration  is  necessary. 
For  more  information  call 
617-376-1316  or  visit  the

During  his  term,  Phelan 
has  maintained  nearly  level 
tax  rates  for  city 
homeowners.  During  the 
recent  campaign,  he 
suggested  that  real  estate 
rates  could  remain  level  or 
even  decrease  this  year 

In  fiscal  Year  2005,  the 
average  single-family  tax  bill 
increased  approximately  one 
peicenl.  In  Fiscal  Year  2006. 
most  rates  did  not  change 
and  in  fiscal  Year  2007,  there 
was  a  two-  percent  increase. 

The  slate  DOR  must  give 
official  approval  of  the  new 
figures  before  the  actual 
annual  tax  rate  can  be  set, 
according  lo  Fantuccliii*  who 
iK)led  the  rate,  "...can't  be  set 
until  after  public  disclosure 
aiul  classification." 

"We  need  to  get  our  final 

reports  so  we  can  set  a  lax 

rate,"    Fantucchio    said. 

"There  are  a  lot  more  reports 

and  statistical  information. "

noted  that  the  City  Council 
does  not  set  the  new  lax  rate, 
but  must  review  the  proposed 
rates. 

"We  will  vote  on  it," 
Keenan  said,  noting  that 
councillors  can  recommend 
that  a  new  tax  rate  is  too  high 
or  too  low,  but  have  no 
official  impact. 

The  City  Council  plans  to 
discuss  the  lax  rale  on 
Monday,  but  Keenan 
believes  that  sufficient 
inlormation  may  not  be 
available  for  a  lull  review 


until  a  special  meeting  set  for 
December  10. 

When  setting  last  year's 
tax  rate,  Phelan  sought  a 
temporary  transfer  of  $1 
million  from  the  Slabili/ation 
Fund  to  keep  the  taxes  level. 

Keenan  said  that  when  the 
DOR  released  the  city '  s  2007 
Free  Cash,  the  money  was 
relumed  to  the  Stabilization 
Fund.  Keenan  said  that  he 
does  not  expect  transfers  for 
tax  jnirposes  from  the 
.Stabili/.alion  Account  this 
vear 


That  will  likely  occur  in 
the  future,  said  Keenan, 
noting  that  the  school 
building  bond  costs  will 
begin  to  affect  the  city  in  two 
years. 

"To  do  it  this  year,  they'd 
have  to  give  me  a  compelling 
reason,"  said  Keenan. 

According  to  Auditor 
Rick  Fit/patrick,  there  is 
currently  $  1 2.6  million  in  the 
city's  Stabilization  Fund 
Municipalities  use  such  funds 
lo  weather  extreme  financial 
situations.

Dec.  6  Outside  City  Hall 


Christmas  Gift  Ideas 


Lost  for  an  original  Christ- 
mas gift  idea  this  year? 

Here  is  some  local  fire 
prevention  bureau  sugges- 
tions for  gifts  for  loved  ones 
that  are  homeowners,  tenants 
or  students  living  in  off-cam- 
pus housing: 

Battery  operated  single 
stage  smoke  detectors  situ- 
ated on  every  level  of  habita- 
tion can  offer  early  notifica- 
tion of  a  smoke  condition 
within  that  loved  one's  resi- 
dence. Rest  assured  your 
thought  filled  gift  would  help 
keep  them  protected  in  your 
absence.  Having  working 
smoke  detectors  within  a  resi- 
dence can  double  one's 
chances  of  survival  while  the 
intent  of  the  gift  expresses 
your  concern  for  the  ongoing 
welfare  off  another  or  others 
as  well. 

With  these  winter  months 
upon  us,  a  carbon  monoxide 
detector  on  every  habitable 
level  of  a  residence  can  de- 
tect the  presence  of  carbon 
monoxide,  an  asphyxiate  gas 
which  can  be  generated  from 
a  malfunctioning  fossil  fuel 
burning  heater  or  stove.  The 
State  Fire  Marshal's  Office 


has  mandated  their  presence 
within  residential  dwellings 
while  in  your  absence,  this 
detector  will  notify  occupants 
of  the  presence  of  carbon 
monoxide  from  a  malfunc- 
tioning unit  or  blocked  tlue. 
It  is  another  gift  idea  to  ex- 
press your  concern  and  do 
something  about  it. 

A  properly  place  fire  ex- 
tinguisher is  a  good  first  aid 
tool  against  small  fires  be- 
fore they  become  larger  more 
destructive  fires.  A  multipur- 
pose fire  extinguisher,  suit- 
able for  use  on  all  three 
classes  of  fire,  ordinary  com- 
bustibles, flammable  liquids 
and  electrical,  can  offer  some 
assurance  that  one  is  using 
an  appropriate  extinguisher 
on  a  specific  fire.  Typically 
an  extinguisher  is  accompa- 
nied by  instructions  for  its 
use  as  well.  Hang  it  in  an  area 
where  you  consider  it  might 
be  needed,  however,  not  too 
close  to  the  potential  hazard, 
while  the  importance  of  hang- 
ing it  near  an  escape  route 
cannot  be  overemphasized. 
It  is  a  practical  gift.

A  Job  Well  Done 

Recent  Scams:  The  Quincy  Police  Department 
has  seen  an  increase  in 
victims  of  internet  and 
mail  scams  involving 
apartment  rentals,  lotter- 
ies, auto  sales  and  other 
transactions. 

Apartment  Rental: 
This  scam  involves  .some- 
one emailing  or  calling  a 
landlord  who  has  adver- 
tised a  property.  The 
caller,  who  sometimes 
claims  the\  are  from  out 

of  the  country,  states  he/she  is  interested  in  the  apart- 
ment and  asks  h>r  the  total  price,  including  first  and 
last  month's  deposit.  The  caller  then  sends  a  check 
or  money  order  to  the  landlord  well  over  the  amount 
requested,  asking  the  landlord  to  cash  the  check  and 
send  the  extra  money  back. 

The  victim/landlord  then  goes  to  the  bank  and 
cashes  the  check  and  either  uses  one  of  his/her 
checks  or  money  order  to  send  money  to  the  sus- 
pect. Sadly,  the  victim  fails  to  heed  the  warning  of 
the  bank  teller,  w  ho  advises  customers  that  there  will 
be  a  hold  on  the  suspect's  check  for  five  days.  This 
is  done  to  protect  their  customers  from  scams. 

Check  Cashing:  This  is  usually  conducted  via 
the  internet,  w  here  the  victim  receix  es  an  email  from 
a  fictitious  coinpan\  liHiking  for  people  v\lio  will 
cash  checks  for  them  and  in  return  can  keep  lO'^^r  of 
the  total  payment.  The  \  ictim  receives  the  check  and 
cashes  it  in.  then  forwards  the  mone\  to  their  "em- 
plo\er"  with  a  money  order  or  personal  check.  The 
bank  in  this  case  notified  the  victim  that  she  was 
showing  a  balance  of  minus  $3,000  in  her  account. 
Her  check  had  been  cashed  but  the  check  she  de- 
posited was  fraudulent.  Again,  the  bank  had  advised 
her  that  there  was  a  fi\e-day  holdin^z  period  on  the 
check. 

Sweepstakes:  A  citi/en  came  to  the  lobby  w  ith  a 
check  made  out  to  her  for  $5,000.  v^  ith  a  letter  indi- 
cating she  had  won  the  S25O.00()  Switzerland 
Sw  eep^iakes  lotter\  The  letter  staled  the  check  w  as 
an  a'd\ance  on  her  winnings  but  she  need  to  pay 
$3,000  in  order  to  get  the  remaining  monc). 

Often  times  the  letter  will  state  the  winner  has  to 
pa>  ta.xes  up  front  or  pay  administrative  fees.  In  this 
case,  there  was  no  victim  because  she  "t^rought  this 
to  the  attention  of  the  police. 

Remember,  if  you  do  not  enter  a  sweepstakes, 
you  can't  win!  Secondly,  why  wouldn't  the  lottery 
people  just  take  out  what  they  believed  to  be  legally 
theirs?  There  really  is  no  such  thing  as  free  money. 

Internet  "Craig's  List"  Scam:  A  citizen  put  a 
diamond  ring  up  for  sale  on  Craig's  List  for  $700.  A 
person  called,  a  deal  was  made  and  the  victim  re- 
ceived a  check  for  $4,000,  which  she  deposited  in 
her  bank  account.  On  the  same  day,  the  victim  mailed 
the  ring  to  the  suspect,  she  also  sent  him  a  money 
gram  in  the  amount  of  $7,700.  Her  bank  contacted 
this  victim  that  she  no  longer  had  funds  in  her  ac- 
count. This  type  of  scam  involves  all  types  of  items 
for  sale. 

Bottom  Line:  If  you  are  conducting  business  via 
the  internet  and  accept  a  check  as  payment,  be  sure 
to  wait  until  the  check  clears.  By  wary  if  the  check 
is  for  more  than  the  agreed  upon  price.

Presidents  Roll  To  Ninth  Straight  Holiday  Win,  28-7 


By  SEAN  BRKNNAN 

Nine,  ihai's  the  magic 
niiinber 

The  Quincy  Piesidents, 
hehiiui  a  dominating 
|KM  lorniance  on  hoth  ot  lense 
and  defense,  won  their  ninth 
straight  Thanksgiving  Day 
game,  28-7,  over  the  North 
Quincy  Red  Raiders  last 
Ihursday  to  capture  the  2007 
city  championshij). 

The  Presidents  entered 
"The  Game'  as  the 
untlerdogs,  sporting  a  2-7 
record,  but  when  the  whistle 
blew  to  kick  oil  the  75"' 
edition,  Quincy  put  their  feet 
on  the  gas  pedal  and 
discarded  the  Raiders  hke 
week  old  Thanksgiving  Day 
leftovers. 

"Winning  nine  in  a  row  is 
a  special  thing  particularly 
this  year,"  said  QHS  head 
coach  Bob  Noble  who  is  a 
perfect  9-0  coaching  on 
Thanksgiving.  "I  don't  think 
a  whole  heck  of  a  lot  of  people 
other  than  ourselves  gave  us 
much  of  a  chance." 

Quincy  had  entered  the 
game  with  just  one  win  in  the 
final  seven  regular  season 
games,  but  after  a  uneventful 
first  quarter  of  play,  the 
Presidents  drew  first  blood 
on  their  first  drive  of  the 
second  quarter. 

Starling  from  their  own  45- 
yard  line,  Quincy"s 
sophomore  quarterback 
Lance  Peterson  (6-7.  Q2 
yards,  TD)  connected  with 
junior  Mark  Gilbody  for  five 
yards  on  first  dow  n.  A  three- 
yard  run  by  the  Presidents" 
sensational  senior  running 
back  Diego  Airedondo  ( more 
on  him  in  a  minute )  on  second 
dow  n  brtnight  up  a  third  dou  n

(iray's  head  and  into  the 
waiting  arms  of  Raddat/,  who 
caught  the  pass  and  ran  into 
the  end/one  for  the 
touchdown.  Arredondo 
missed    the    point    after

attempt,  but  Quincy  had  gone 
seven  plays  in  live  minutes 
to  take  the  early  6-0  lead. 

'(I)  was  a  big  part  of  the 
game  and  it  feels  good  to 
help  the  seniors,"  said  a 
jubilant  Raddat/  after  the 
game.  "I  was  supposed  to 
run  a  streak  but  I  saw  the  ball 
go  over  Sean's  head  and  1 
judged  where  the  ball  was 
going,  caught  it  and  just  got 
my  hands  on  it  and  scored." 

The  two  teams  swapped 
turnovers  on  their  next  two 
drives.  After  the  Quincy 
touchdown.  North  Quincy 
quarterback  Dennis  Martin 
threw  a  pass  over  the  middle 
on  first  down  and  20,  and  the 
Presidents'  Joe  Reggiannini 
intercepted  the  ill-fated  pass. 

The  Raiders  defense 
answered  that  interception 
with  one  of  their  own  on 
Quincy's  ensuing  drive.  The 
Presidents'  Peterson  facing 
a  third  dow  n  and  five,  tried  to 
find  senior  Dan  Sabin  along 
the  right  sidelines,  but 
North's  Joe  Vialpando 
stepped  in  front  of  the  pass 
and  came  up  with  a  highlight 
reel  pick. 

Down  6-0  and  finding  it 
difficult  to  get  any  t>pe  of 
run  game  going,  the  Raiders 
went  on  a  six  play  drne 
following  Vialpando" s  INT. 
After  picking  up  a  first  down 
on  runs  by  Pat  Watkins  and 
Danny  Jackson.  Martin  was 
stuffed  by  Quincy  senior  Paul 
Oldham  (double-digit 
tackles)  for  a  three-yard  loss. 

With  just  under  a  minute 
remaining  in  the  opening 


THE  QUINCY  PRESIDENTS  celebrate  their  ninth  straight 
Thank-sgiving  Day  victory  last  Thursday.  Quincy  defeated 


half.  North  punted  the  ball 
from  the  Quincy  33-yard  line. 
Raddatz,  who  was  back  to 
receive  the  punt,  muffed  the 
ball  and  North's  Dave 
Thomson  recovered  the  live 
ball  at  the  Quincy  15-yard 
line.  Three  plays  later  Martin 
found  all-league  tight  end 
Marcellus  Lee  for  a  13-yard 
touchdown  strike  and  after  a 
Zac  Deegan  P.AT.  the  Raiders 
lead  7-6  entenng  the  break 

Whatever  pep  talk  Coach 
Noble  gave  to  his  team  in  the 
locker  room  seemed  to  w  ork 
as  Quincy  came  out  and 
compeletly  took  over  what 
had  been  up  to  that  point  a 
close  and  competitive  game 

The  Raiders  took  the  ball 
first  in  the  second  half,  but

■'The>  shut  Us  down. 
Coach  Noble  and  his  staff 
did  a  tremendous  job."  said 
NQ  head  coach  .hm  Connor, 
■■\Ve  didn't  make  the  plaxs 
we  needed  to  make.  It  just 
didn't  work  in  our  fa\or. 

"In  realit).  nothing  was 
different  in  the  first  half.  \\"e 
got  that  tumo\  er  and  scored 
to  take  the  lead,  but  we 
couldn't  move  the  ball  on 
offense,  we  did  OK  on 
defense,  but  we  were  forced 
to  take  more  gambles  as  the 
run  game  was  not  working." 

North  was  forced  to  pla\ 
without  star  running  back  Jon 
Cahill,  who  was  out  with  an 


arm  injur\ .  but  that  was  not 
an  excuse  tor  Connor. 

"You  can't  blame  an\ 
indnidual  person.  .Ion  is  a 
tiemendous  pla\er  and  was 
missed,  but  the  credit  goes  to 
Quincy.  they  came  read\  to 
pla\ .  We  w  anted  to  stay  w  ith 
our  same  philosophy.  That  is 
what  got  us  here.  The  last 
thing  we  wanted  to  do  was 
try  and  gel  creative.  Quincy 
just  outplayed  us." 

It  ma\  ha\e  been  a 
disappointing  way  to  end  a 
great  season  for  North  (the 
team  finished  6-5),  but 
Connor  and  his  team  have 
much  to  be  thankful  for  as 
the\  head  into  the  off  season. 

"This  IS  a  tough  one  to 
sw  allow .  We  came  back  after 
last  \ ear  and  won  si.x  games. 
That  is  a  tremendous  step 
and  hopefully  next  year  we 
can    take    another    step 


forward." 

I  or  Quincy  and  Noble,  the 
win  helped  to  end  their  year 
on  a  positive  note. 

"F'irst  off  \  ou  ha\  e  to  give 
ciedit  to  Coach  Connor  and 
his  staff,  they  ha\e  tumed 
that  program  around.  But  I 
kind  of  like  w  inning  by  three 
touchdowns.  That  is  a 
dellnite  statement.  There  w  as 
no  luck  involved,  we  made 
great  plays  all  around  and  I 
am  just  so  proud  of  my  kids 
and  my  coaching  staff  that  I 
have  had  the  privilege  to 
coach  with  for  almost  fifteen 
years. 

"We  won  this  game 
decisively.  It  is  nice  to  not  be 
sweating  it  there  at  the  end. 
These  games  have  a  tendency 
to  be  nail-bitters,  so  it  was 
nice  to  be  able  to  enjoy  it  at 
the  end.  It  was  a  great  day.  I 
am  very,  very  happy."

New  Hampshire  brought  in 
more  than  $463,000.  which 
was  $200,000  more  than  the 
PMC  Kids  Rides  program 
rasied  last  year. 

Founded  in  1980  when  36 
cyclists  rode  across  Massa- 
chusetts and  raised  $10,200 
for  the  Jimmy  Fund,  the 
PMC  is  known  today  as  the 


"gold  standard"  of  athletic 
fundraising  events,  due  to  the 
unprecedented  sums  it  raises 
and  its  consistently  efficient 
charity  pass-through  rate. 
Through  the  1990s,  the  PMC 
contributed  between  92  to  99 
cents  of  rider-raised  dollar. 

PMC  2008  is  set  for  Aug. 
2  and  3.  Registration  opens 
online  on  Jan.  8  for  alumni 
and  Jan.  15  for  newcomers.

The  city's  residential  tax 
rate  for  2008  is  expected  to 
increase  \.b99c  or  $65  for 
the  average  homeowner 
under  the  current  tax  plan 
prepared  by  Mayor  William 
Phclaii. 

Phelan's  tax  proposal  and 
the  city's  new  reevaluations 
were  presented  Monday  at  a 
City  Council  public  hearing 
by  Marion  Fantucchio, 
chairwoman  of  the  Board  of 
Assessors. 


Fantucchio  emphasized 
that  all  data,  including  the 
proposed  tax  rate,  must  still 
be  certified  by  the  state 
Department  ot  Revenue 
(DOR). 

"You  can  talk  about  it. 
You  can  not  take  a  vote." 
Fantucchio  said.  As  a  result, 
the  public  hearing  was 
continued  until  Dec.  1 7  after 
Fantucchio  assured 

councillors  that  tax  bills 
would  still  be  distributed 
before  the  first  of  the  year. 


According  to  current 
records,  the  city's  total 
valuation  is$ll,74(),774.()2() 
with  just  over  $9.8  billion  or 
8.\6'f  in  residential  values 
and  $1.9  billion  or  16.39';  in 
c(Miimercial,  industrial  and 
personal  propert)  .  New 
growth  represents  a 
$4,265,74.^  increase.

Central  Middle  School  Still 
In  Line  For  State  Funding 


Whatever  Quint)  decides 
to  do  with  its  century-old 
Central  Middle  School,  the 
State  School  Building  Au- 
thority is  willing  to  chip  in 
its  share  tor  the  cost  ot  the 
study  and  the  construction. 

The  Authority  last  week 
released  a  list  of  83  schools 
across  the  state  that  are  still 
in  competition  for  a  share  in 
$500  million  that  is  available 
for  school  building  in  2008- 
09. 

Who  gets  what  and  how 
much  is  all  very  uncertain  at 
this  point  but  Central  was 
described  as  one  of  the 
state's  three  most  deterio- 
rated school  buildings. 

"There's  no  guarantee 
we'll  get  the  money,"  said 


Elaine  Dwyer,  the  vice  chair 
of  the  School  Committee. 
■'But  I'm  happy  we  made  the 
first  cut.  At  least  we're  on  the 
list  for  this  year." 

The  next  move  is  up  to  the 
city  —  the  appointment  of  a 
building  committee,  which 
may  come  as  early  as  the 
next  School  Committee 
meeting,  said  Dwyer. 

Then  the  city  has  to  name 
a  project  manager  to  conduct 
the  feasibility  study  required 
by  the  state,  another  uncer- 
tain proposition  since  the  of- 
fice of  the  mayor  in  Quincy 
is  in  transition. 

■'We  have  three  options," 
said  Dwyer.  "We  could  build 
a  new  school  on  the  same 


location.  We  could  build  it  on 
a  different  location.  Or  we 
could  renovate  the  old  build- 
ing. 

"My  preference  would  be 
to  build  a  new  one." 

When  the  feasibility 
study  is  finished  the  city  still 
has  to  reach  agreement  with 
the  state  on  the  scope  of  the 
project,  the  schedule  and  the 
cost  sharing.  State  reim- 
bursement ranges  from  40  to 
80  per  cent  of  the  cost. 

Then  the  state  will  pick 
the  projects  to  be  funded  out 
of  the  83  survivors  on  the  A- 
list  for  2008-09.  And,  lastly, 
the  City  Council  or  local  vot- 
ers would  have  a  chance  to 
reject  or  approve  the  project.

Memorial  Obervance  Friday 

66  Years  Later 

He  Vividly  Remembers 

Pearl  Harbor,  1941 


Pageant  Field  Track 
Plan  Put  On  Hold 


By  TOM  HENSHAW 

"There's  only  a  few  of 
them  left,"  observed  Tom 
Stansbury  of  Quincy  Veter- 
ans Services. 

And  one  of  the  last  few 
will  be  on  hand  at  1 0  o'clock 
on  the  morning  of  Friday, 
Dec.  7,  at  the  World  War  II 
Memorial  in  Mount 
Wollaston  Cemetery  when 
Quincy  observes  the  66th 
anniversary  of  Pearl  Harbor 
Day. 

Frank  Connolly  of 
Wollaston  was  a  seaman,  a 
range  finder  operator,  aboard 
the  heavy  cruiser  USS  St. 
Louis  that  Sunday  morning 
in  1941  when  the  Japanese 
launched  their  surprise  attack 
on  the  American  base  in  the 
Pactific. 

'T  was  all  dressed  up, 
ready  to  go  ashore,"  he  re- 
called the  other  day.  "I  was 
talking  to  an  ensign  when  a 
lot  of  planes  started  zooming 
in  a  few  feet  over  the  water. 
I  said  to  the  ensign,  'WTiat, 
another  drill?  And  on  Sunday 
morning!' 

"Just  then  two  of  them 
peeled  off  and  dropped  tor- 
pedoes. Then  they  started 
coming  in  three  breast,  drop- 
ping their  torpedoes.  1  said  to 
him.  They're  Japanese!'  He 
said,  'Everyone  go  to  your 
battle  stations.'" 

This  was  early  Sunday 
morning  in  the  peacetime 
Navy.  The  ships  in  Pearl 
were  at  colors  and  the  bands 
were  playing  on  the  rear 
decks.  None  of  them  had 
power  up  and  it  took  a  while 
to  get  the  boilers  up  to  steam. 

"It  was  almost  1 1  o'clock 
before  we  got  out  of  the  har- 
bor. We  started  out  in  the 
channel  behind  the  battleship 
Nevada,"  said  Connolly. 
"One  of  those  two-man  sub- 
marines hit  the  Nevada  with 
a  torpedo  and  it  was  beached 
off  Hickam  Field  so  it 
wouldn't  block  the  channel. 

"The  St.  Louis  got  strafed 
a  couple  of  times  but  we 
didn't  suffer  any  serious  hits.

The  Pageant  Field  track 
construction  plans  have  boon 
put  on  hold.  acccMdmg  to 
David  Murphy,  E.\ecuti\e 
Secretary  to  Mayor  William 
Phelan. 

At  Monday's  City 
Council  meeting.  Murphy 
responded  to  questions  from 
Councillor  Joseph  Finn 
regarding  changes  in  the  track 
site  location. 

Finn  cited  letters  from  37 
Quincy  student  track 
comp>etitors  asking  that  the 
track  be  completed. 

Phelan  decided  to  hold  off 


oil  plans  lor  llio  Pageant  licid 
tiiick  after  discussions  with 
Maxor-cioct  Thomas  Koch, 
according  to  Murphs  who 
said  the  mayor  decided  not 
"to  begin  .i  pn^ject  that  has 
been  clearly  opposed  by  the 
incoming  mayor-elect," 
Murphy  said,  referring  to  the 
Pageant  Field  track. 

Councillors  approved  a  $  1 
million  bond  issue  for  the 
Pageant  Field  track  site  in 
May  after  months  of  review 
and  discussion.  However,  the 
Pageant  Field  track  site  was 
an  issue  in  the  recent  mayoral 
campaign. 


"In  fairness  {o  the  mayor- 
elect,  he's  made  no  secret  of 
(his  opposition)  to  the  track 
being  located  there."  Finn 
said,  hut  added.  "We  risk  the 
possihilitx  of  losing  one  of 
Quincy's  finest  programs." 

"To  date,  we've  already 
spent  $I()S,()()(),"  said  Finn, 
before  suggesting  there  is  a 
point  at  which  opponents 
should  accept  that  certain 
decisions  did  not  go  their 
way. 

"That  would  be  our  fourth 
site."  City  Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  said  of  the 
prospect  of  reopening  the 
issue. 


Community  Meeting  Held  On 
Nut  Island  Wind  T\irbines 


FRANK  CONNOLLY 


My  gun  didn't  fire  a  shot  but 
our  five-inch  batteries  shot 
off  all  their  ammunition.  We 
were  the  first  major  ship  to 
get  out  of  the  harbor." 

The  St.  Louis  and  its  crew 
spent  the  next  three  days 
looking  for  the  Japanese  fleet 
without  success. 

"Three  days  later  we 
came  back  into  Pearl  Har- 
bor," said  Connolly.  "You 
would  not  believe  the  car- 
nage. Small  boats  were  still 
going  around  the  harbor 
picking  up  the  dead.  I  was 
assigned  to  a  motor  launch 
to  pick  up  bodies.  It  was 
gruesome. 

"Half  of  our  crew  was 
sent  to  San  Diego  to  bring 
back  a  company  of  Marines. 
Everybody  thought  we  were 
going  to  be  invaded." 

Connolly,  who  joined  the 
Navy  in  1940,  later  served  in 
12  different  campaigns  dur- 
ing the  war  in  the  Pacific.  He 
was  chief  master  at  arms  sta- 
tioned at  Alameda  Naval  Air 
Station  in  California  when  he 
was  discharged  in  Novem- 
ber, 1946. 

Three  years  later,  he 


joined  the  Boston  Police 
Department  and  served  for 
32  years,  mostly  on  beats  in 
the  South  End  and  Back  Bay, 
until  he  retired  in  1 98 1 .  Bom 
and  raised  in  Dorchester 
Lower  Mills,  he  moved  to 
Quincy  in  1980. 

Connolly  will  join  the 
commander  of  the  Quincy 
Veterans  Council  in  placing 
a  wreath  on  the  World  War 
II  Memorial  during  the  brief 
ceremony  in  Mount 
Wollaston  Cemetery  Friday 
and  then  the  group  will  re- 
tire to  the  George  F.  Bryan 
VFW  Post  at  24  Broad  St.  for 
coffee  and  donuts. 

In  case  of  inclement 
weather,  the  ceremony  will 
he  held  in  the  lower  hall  of 
the  Bryan  Post. 


Sen.  Michael  Morrissey 
and  Rep.  Stephen  Tobin  were 
scheduled  to  hold  a  commu- 
nity meeting  on  the  proposed 
Nut  Island  Wind  Turbine 
Project  last  night  (Wednes- 
day) at  7  p.m.  in  the  Quincy 


Yacht  Club. 

The  meeting  was  held  to 
allow  the  technical  staff  of 
the  Massachusetts  Water 
Resources  Authority  and  the 
Massachusetts  Technology 
Collaborative  to  answer  any 


questions  or  concerns  of  any 
residents. 

Questions  about  the  meet- 
ing should  have  been  di- 
rected to  Morrissey's  office 
at  617-722-1494.

War. 

•  On  Dec.  4,   1921,  the 

manslaughter  trial  for  actor 
and  director  Fatly  Arbuckle 
ends  in  a  hung  jury.  Arbuck- 
le —  nicknamed  "Fatty"  for 
his  generous  physique  — 
was  accused  of  manslaugh-

Rappe.  The  starlet  died  of  a 
ruptured  bladder  several 
days  after  an  alleged  .sexual 
assault  by  the  350-pound 
Arbuckle  at  a  wild  drinking 
party  in  San  Francisco.  After

Dave  And  Rose 


McCarthy 


School  Committeeman  Dave  McCailhy  has  two 
good  reasons  to  look  forward  to  the  New  Year. 

First,  he  has  the  votes  to  be  elected  vice-chairman  in 
January. 

Second,  he  and  his  wile.  Rose,  are 
eagerly  awaiting  the  arrival  of  a  new 
member  ot  their  growing  family. 

They  are  in  the  process  of  adopting 
a  two-year  old  special  needs  boy  in 
Vietnam. 

He  will  be  their  sixth  adopted 
child,  five  with  special  needs.  They  have  two  children 
ol  their  own. 

McCarthy  will  be  going  to  Vietnam  in  February  as 
part  of  the  adoption  procedure. 

The  family  already  has  an  international  look. 

The  present  adopted  children  are  from  the  United 
States,  the  Philippines  and  Hong  Kong. 

The  children,  including  their  own  two,  range  in  age 
from  eight  to  1 5  and  attend  Quincy  public  schools:  two 
at  Quincy  High  School,  three  at  Broad  Meadows  Middle 
and  two  at  the  Marshall  School. 

"They're  all  healthy,"  says  McCarthy.  "You  should 
see  them  take  care  of  a  25-pound  turkey  on  Thanksgiving 
Day. 

"We  go  through  1 4  gallons  of  milk  a  week-two  a  day. 
When  I  tell  them  at  the  supermarket  that  I'll  be  back,  I 
am.  Usually  the  next  day." 

McCarthy  is  Security  Manager  for  General 
Dynamics'  Navy-Air  Force  Division  in  Needham. 

He  will  be  starting  his  second  four-year  term  on  the 
School  Committee  as  vice-chairman  in  January. 

With  seven  children-and  an  eighth  in  the  near  future- 
in  the  Quincy  public  schools  McCarthy  knows  first- 
hand the  needs  of  students. 

He  and  Rose  shy  from  credit  but  deserve  a  lot  of  it  for

FAITHFUL  QUINCY  FANS  Mike  Magerlund  ( 1 935 
class),  and  George  Burke  ( 1 950),  kept  their  attendance 
streaks  going  at  this  year's  75""  Quincy-Noi1h  Quincy 
football  game. 

For  Fagerlund,  retired  Board  of  Assessors  chairman, 
it  was  his  71"' 
game.  He 

missed  four 
during  World 
War  II  while' 
serving  with  the 
Yankee 
Division  with 
whom  he  saw 
action  in  the 
Battle  of  the 
Bulge. 

For  Burke,  former  state  representative  and  city 
councillor,  it  was  his  64""  consecutive. 

The  pair  sat  together,  enjoying  the  75'^  and  looking 
forward  to  the  76'^ 

Although  the  75-year  rivalry  is  now  a  Thanksgiving 
Day  must  for  fans  and  grads  of  both  schools,  the  game 
was  not  always  played  on  that  day. 

The  early  ones,  starting  in  1933,  were  played  on 
Armistice  Day  (Veterans  Day)  and  a  couple  on 
Saturdays. 

The  first  on  Thanksgiving  Day  was  in  1938.  It  was 
also  the  first  played  at  Veterans  Memorial  Stadium. 

□ 

A  NOTE  FROM  Ruth  Scanlan,  former  School 
Committee  member  now  living  in  Randleman,  NC: 

"Several  people  sent  me  an  issue  of  The  Quincy  Sun 
that  had  the  recent  election  results.  As  you  know,  I  have 
been  closely  affiliated  with  the  Koch  family  and  am 
delighted  with  the  results  of  the  election. 

"After  reading  all  the  news  on  the  election,  I  read  the 
rest  of  the  paper.  Congratulations  on  continuing  to 
publish  a  paper  that  is  filled  with  important  information 
for  the  people  in  the  community." 

Thanks  for  the  kind  words,  Ruth. 

She  was  elected  to  the  School  Committee  in  1967  in 
her  first  try,  with  an  impressive  vote  of  12,939,  taking 
second  place  behind  James  McCormick  in  a  field  of  six 
candidates. 

It  looked  like  a  new  political  star  was  bom  but  she 
stepped  down  after  serving  only  one  four-year  term. 

Some  observers  thought  she  might  go  on  to  become 
that  first  woman  Quincy  mayor. 

G 

AND  ANOTHER  ONE  from  John  Vallier  of  Wesson 
Avenue: 

"I  was  reading  your  column  in  the 
Nov.  2 1  Quincy  Sun  and  I  noticed  that 
Frank  McCauley  corrected  you  on  the 
vote  in  Ward  1 . 

"You  stated  that  some  day  you 
would  get  one  on  him.  I  believe  he 
made  a  mistake  in  his  Quincy's 
Yesterdays  column. 

"It  stated  that  Captain  Anthony  Capenci  was  treasurer 
of  the  Quincy  Police  Mutual  Aid  Association. 

"I  believe  that  in  1953,  Mr.  Capenci  was  a  lieutenant 
at  the  same  time  as  my  Dad,  Frank  Vallier. 

"I  think  you  have  Frank  McCauley  on  this  one." 

See,  Frank,  they're  watching  you.

Scenes  From  Yesterday 


V. 


THIS  IS  A 1930  postcard  showing  scenes  at  the  Quincy 
Girl  Scouts  camp  on  what  today  is  known  as  Great 
Herring  Pond  in  Plymouth.  The  camp  was  established 
in  1928  through  the  gift  of  $4,000  from  an  anonymous 
donor  who  wanted  it  named  for  his  mother,  Mary  Whit- 
ing. The  camp  opened  with  several  new  buildings  on 
seven  acres  of  land.  It  has  420  feet  of  water  frontage  on 
what  was  known  then  as  Manomet  Lake.  Additional 
Quincy  donations  allowed  the  camp  to  be  fully  equipped 
and  staffed  to  provide  all  sorts  of  outdoor  activities  as 


seen  on  the  postcard.  But,  then  in  1938,  the  Quincy 
Girl  Scouts  Council  suddenly  sold  the  camp.  The  sale 
occurred  in  a  period  when  the  Girl  Scout  movement 
was  redirecting  its  programs  from  outdoors  to  indoors 
in  order  that  girls  could  learn  the  responsibilities  of 
creating  and  maintaining  a  home  The  same  family  that 
bought  it  in  1938  has  owned  the  camp  now  known  as 
Camp  Bournedale  for  boys.  To  contact  Tom  Galvin,  e-

Concourse:  ^An  Urban  Renewal  Boondoggle' 


I  read  with  interest  the  ar- 
ticle in  Saturday's  Patriot 
Ledger,  in  which  Mayor 
Phelan  admitted  that  the  "un- 
expected" increase  in  resi- 
dential property  taxes  was 
due  in  part  to  the  fact  that 
"the  loss  of  taxes  from  cer- 
tain commercial  properties, 
such  as  those  the  city  ac- 
quired for  its  downtown 
Concourse  project . . .  appear 
to  be  greater  than  calcu- 
lated." 

Unexpected? 

Hardly. 

During  my  recent  cam- 
paign for  Quincy  City  Coun- 
cil, I  noted  repeatedly  that 
the  Concourse  project  would 
result  in  an  increase  in  prop- 
erty taxes  for  homeowners, 
who  would  be  forced  to 


make  up  the  tax  revenue  lost 
from  the  two  dozen  busi- 
nesses the  city  planned  to 
bulldoze  to  make  way  for 
this  costly  and  unnecessary 
road.  It  was  a  position  that 
was  dismissed  derisively  by 
city  officials  -  including  my 
opponents  for  councilor-at- 
large  -  who  insisted  that  the 
Concourse  would  be  an  eco- 
nomic boon  for  taxpayers, 
and  that  any  loss  in  commer- 
cial tax  revenue  would  be 
minimal  and  short-lived. 

That  was  before  the  elec- 
tion, of  course. 

Now  that  the  election  is 
over  and  the  tax  assessments 
are  in,  city  officials  are  fi- 
nally being  forced  to  ac- 
knowledge what  many  resi- 
dents have  known  all  along: 


that  far  from  being  the  eco- 
nomic savior  of  Quincy  Cen- 
ter, the  Concourse  is  an  ur- 
ban renewal  boondoggle  that 
in  its  earliest  stages  is  already 
proving  to  be  a  drain  on  the 
pocketbooks  of  Quincy 
homeowners. 

And  this  is  just  the  begin- 
ning. 

Keep  in  mind  that  the  city 
has  only  begun  its  scorched- 
earth  plan  to  demolish  some 
of  downtown  Quincy  \s  most 
vibrant  businesses.  If  Quincy 
homeowners  are  already  be- 
ing forced  to  make  up  the  tax 
revenue  lost  from  a  handful 
of  demolished  buildings, 
how  much  are  we  going  to 
have  to  kick  in  when  the  bull- 
dozers start  obliterating  the 
other  20  businesses  marked 


for  the  wrecking  ball? 

One  thing  is  certain:  Now 
that  the  tax  assessments  are 
in,  Quincy  leaders  can  no 
longer  feign  ignorance  of  the 
Concourse's  negative  impact 
on  Quincy  taxpayers.  As  we 
head  into  a  new  mayoral  ad- 
ministration, let's  hope  that 
Mayor-Elect  Koch  and  the 
City  Council  receive  this 
wake-up  call  loud  and  clear, 
and  that  they  take  the  neces- 
sary steps  to  stop  this  ill-con- 
ceived  project  before  it 
causes  irreparable  harm  to 
our  downtown  and  to  the  fi- 
nancial security  of  struggling 
homeowners. 

Gentlemen,    we'll    be 
watching.

Urges  Long-Term  Solution  To  Long  Island  Use 


Perhaps,  Quincy  with  a 
new  mayor  can  find  a  way 
to  find  a  solution  between 
Quincy  and  Boston  over  ac- 
cess to  underused  and  quite 
beautiful  Long  Island. 

Rather  than  turn  it  into  a 
turf  battle,  let  us  find  a  way 
to  find  a  long-term  solution. 
Right  now,  Boston  Harbor 
has  become  little  more  than 


a  homeless  shelter  and  social 
services  Mecca. 

Someday,  it  would  be 
nice  to  make  this  island  a 
place  to  summer  at.  To  do  so 
requires  a  re-location  of  all 
the  services  now  provided  on 
the  island. 

People  from  Boston,  as 
well  as  Quincy,  should  have 
an  opportunity  to  use  Long 


Island  as  a  recreational  spot. 
The  first  step  is  for  both  may- 
ors to  actually  sit  down  and 
workout  an  outline  for  future 
use. 

Perhaps,  it  would  benefi- 
cial to  set  up  a  joint  commis- 


sion to  create  a  future  in 
which  Long  Island  is  no 
longer  a  piece  of  land  to  fight 
over.

He  moved  out  of  the  city 
and  wrote  a  goodbye  letter, 
yet  now  he  is  still  bothering 
us  with  his  rambling  opin- 
ions. Who  cares  if  he  looks

It  will  consist  of  circulated  petitions  concerning  inhumane 
treatment  of  our  captured  "CI's"  by  the  North  Vietnamese 
and  the  Viet  Cong.  The  petition  will  be  sent  to  the  North 
Vietnamese  Embassy  in  Paris. 

''We  consider  this  an  important  step  in  seeing  to  it  that  all 
prisoners  held  by  the  enemy  arc  treated  fairly  and  that  all

Beechwood  Knoll  Pupil 
Selected  For  'The  Nutcracker' 


Eggplant  Cacciatore 


One  ol  our  family  tavoritos  is  eggplant, 
not  only  in  parmesan  style,  but  in  t)ther  ways 
as  well. 

Today's  recipe  is  for  eggplant  cacciatore. 
It's  easy  to  prepare  and  doesn't  have  a  ton  of 
ingredients.  I  like  to  keep  the  skin  on  the 
eggplant,  since  this  recipe  calls  lor  it  to  be 
cubed  with  an  option  to  remove  the  skin  or 
keep  it  natural.  They  say  that  most  of  the 
vitamins  comes  from  the  skin  anyway. 
E(;(,PLANT  CACCIATORE 

1  medium  sized  e}>^plant  (cubed) 

1  .small  onion  (chopped) 

2  cloves  garlic  (minced)) 
1  green  pepper 

1  red  pepper 

1/2  to  3/4  teaspoon  basil  or  a  favorite 


herb 

1  16-ounce  can  tomatoes 
salt  and  pepper  to  taste 

1/2  pound  linguine  (or  a  favorite  pasta) 

2  tablespoons  olive  for  sauteing 

In  the  hot  oil,  add  the  onions,  garlic, 
peppers  and  saute  for  about  five  minutes. 
Add  the  tomatoes  and  cook  for  15  minuts. 

Now  at  this  point,  you  can  either  saute  the 
eggplant  in  another  skillet,  and  then  put  it  in 
the  tomatoe  mixture,  or  place  them  right  in 
the  mixture.  I've  done  both-cook  until  the 
eggplant  is  tender. 

Cook  the  pasta  according  to  directions, 
and  then  in  a  serving  bowl,  place  the  eggplant 
mixture  on  top  with  I  /2  cup  parmesan  cheese 
sprinkled  on  top.  It  is  a  delicious  way  to  serve 
this  wonderful  vegetable.

Dedicated  In  Memory  Of  Henry  Dell 

Bells  Are  Ringing  Again 

For  First  Presbyterian 

Church  And  Neighborhood 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

The  bells  are  ringing  again 
from  the  stately  60-fo()i 
church  spire  on  Penn's  Hill. 

If  you  haven't  heard  the 
bells,  there's  a  sign  in  front 
of  First  Presbyterian  United 
Church  on  Franklin  Street 
that  says  it  all. 

"The  bells  are  back. 
Alleluia." 

Last  Sunday,  the  bells 
rang  again  from  the  church 
steeple  for  the  first  time  since 
the  funeral  of  Henry  Dell  on 
Dec.  19.  2(K)4. 

Now  the  bells  are  back, 
played  through  a  brand  new 
digital  system  installed  last 
week  and  dedicated  in 
memory  of  Dell. 

Some  150  congregants, 
including  Dell's  widow 
Charlotte  attended  Sunday's 
special  service  and  enjoyed 
the  return  of  the  bells 

Henry  Dell  was 
remembered  as  the  state-of- 
the-iul  technology  equipment 
was  demonstrated. 

"They  were  the  Joy  of  his 
life."  Chadotte  Dell  said  of 
the  old  bells.  She  recalling 
her  late  husband  who  joined 
the  First  Church  choir  at  12 
and  sang  for  the  church  for 
69  years.  Friends  said  Dell 
kept  the  old  bells  ringing  by 
keeping  tapes  together  with 
glue  and  rubber  bands  and 
love. 

She  and  her  husband  were 
"Depression  babies," 
Charlotte  Dell  said.  Her 
husband  served  in  World  War 
11,  then  worked  for  the 
telephone  company  for  38 


HENRY  DELL 

years  before  his  retirement. 
Their  two  children  are 
Elizabeth  Smith  of 
Middleboro  and  Douglas 
DellofHolbrook. 

"He  took  care  of  the  bells," 
said  Charlotte  Dell,  recalling 
letters  from  the  original  tape 
company,  which  said,  "They 
had  never  seen  tapes  that 
lasted  so  long  and  were  kept 
so  beautifully." 

When  Dell  died  at  83,  one 
of  the  congregants  told  his 
widow,  there  would  bells,  no 
matter  what,  for  his  funeral. 
The  woman  told  her,  "If  they 
can't  ring  for  his  funeral,  I 
will  ring  them  by  hand.  That 
was  the  last  time  they  were 
rung." 

"Henry  is  really  smiling 
down  from  heaven,"  she  said 
of  Sunday's  dedication.  "I 
am  so  excited." 

The  new  system,  a 
Millenium  Carillon  with  a 
900-song  selection  and  99 
year  setting,  provides  the 
music  of  carillon  bells  for  the 
church  and  the  neighborhood 
through  the  four  speakers 
peeking  through  the  four  side 


windows  of  the   wooden 
steeple. 

The  digital  machine 
housed  in  a  box  about  the 
size  of  a  small  refrigerator 
replaces  the  old  standing  ta|:>e 
unit  that  shut  down  years  ago. 
Music  can  be  changed  by 
remote  control  and 
seasonally  adjusted  for 
hymns  and  daylight  savings 
time. 

Once  again,  the  music  is 
back  to  mark  the  days  of  joy, 
ofsorrow,  and  of  celebration. 
The  bells  again  signal  the 
hours  of  each  day  and  call 
congregants  to  worship. 

According  to  Ron  Del 
Pino,  Worship  Committee 
Chairman,  the  bells  will  ring 
on  the  hour  during  the 
daytime  and  a  hymn  will  play 
at  noon  and  6  p.m.  as  well  as 
for  special  celebrations  and 
occasions. 

"I'm  sure  Henry 's  looking 
down  and  he' s  very  pleased," 
said  Bill  Horte,  volunteer  and 
president  of  the  church 
corporation. 

Horte  stopped  raking 
leaves  long  enough  last  week 
to  recall  Henry  Dell  as  "a 
fixture  of  the  church.  He'd 
rather  be  here  but  he's 
happy." 

During  those  months  and 
years  of  silence,  the  bells 
were  missed  not  only  by 
congregants,  but  also 
throughout  the 

neighborhood. 

Rev.  Dr.  Stan  Johnson, 
pastor,  said  that  the  church 
neighbors  missed  the  music 
and  their  interest  was  an

Thanks  to  you,  we're  now 
helping  more  of  your  neighbors 

fight  cancer. 


Thanks  to  the  1500  walkers,  plus  hundreds  of  businesses 
and  other  groups,  who  participated  in  the  10th  Annual 
Quincy  Medical  Center  Cancer  Walk,  we  raised  a  record- 
breaking  $200,000  this  year. 

The  Walk  supports  the  Marie  A.  Curry  Fund,  which  fights 
cancer  right  here  in  the  Quincy  area  by  providing  neighbors 
with  screenings,  education,  and  diagnostic  services.  But  it  only 
happens  with  support  we  get  from  the  business  community, 
volunteers,  walkers,  donors  and  the  Walk  committee. 

A  special  thank  you  to  the  Durkin  family,  whose  "Positive 
Thinkers"  team  walked  with  us  despite  having  just  found  out 
that  their  sister  Ciara  Durkin  had  been  killed  while  serving  in 
Afghanistan.  This  on  top  of  also  raising  $7,000  for  the  Fund. 
Words  cannot  say  enough.

City  Ownership 

Of  Bryan  Post 

Needs  Council  Approval 


After  School,  Evening  Programs 
Begin  This  Week  At  14  Local  Gyms 


City  Councillors  Monday 
tabled  a  proposal  that  would 
allow  the  city  to  take 
ownership  of  the  George  F. 
Bryan  VFW  Post,  24  Broad 
St. 

Under  the  Dec.  3  order 
prepared  for  council  action 
this  week,  the  city  would 
accept  the  ownership  deed  in 
lieu  of  foreclosure  on  the  land 
and  building. 

The  official  order  states 
that  the  property  is  owned  by 


(ieorge  l\  Bryan  VIW  Post 
Building  Association,  Inc. 

However,  there  are 
questions  regarding  the 
ownership  of  the  property 
which  is  located  near  Father 
Bill's  Place,  a  shelter  for 
homeless  persons. 

Ward  2Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  objected  to  any 
action  on  the  issue  this  week. 
He  stated  that  he  wanted  to 
see  a  copy  of  the  pn)perty's 
ownership  deed  as  well  as  a 


statement  signed  by  the  posts 
members  stating  they 
understand  and  voted  for  the 
action. 

The  post  building  was 
constructed  in  1 956  when  the 
post  had  about  8(K)  members 
in  contrast  to  its  current  300 
members. 

Raymondi  said  the  issue 
would  have  to  be  taken  up  at 
the  Dec.  1 7  meeting  or  re  filed 
in  January.

Eight  stolen  Quilts 
Now  Recovered 


The  last  two  of  eight  stolen 
quilts  have  been  recovered, 
according  to  Pat  Fay  of 
Quilters  Compass  whose 
patrons  had  their  prize  quilts 
stolen  last  August  from  an 
exhibit  at  the  Thomas  Crane 
main  library. 

"They  were  turned  in  at 
the  Pine  Street  Inn  in 
Boston,"  Fay  said  of  the 
stolen  quilts.  The  quilts  were 
returned  after  Fay  sent 
pictures  of  the  missing  items 
to  all  of  the  Pine  Street  Inns. 

"It's  the  best  Christmas 
present  I  could  have  given 
anybody,"  Fay  said,  noting 
that  it  has  been  a  tremendous 
relief  to  her  as  she  has  felt  so 


badly  for  her  clients. 

Each  of  the  stolen  quilts 
had  considerable  personal 
history ,  according  to  Fay .  The 
quilts  were  all  created  by  in 
Fay's  shop  which  serves  500 
quilting  students  at  27 
Cottage  Ave.,  Quincy  Center. 

Last  summer.  Fay 
ananged  for  an  exhibit  of  37 
quilts  on  the  library  walls  but 
the  eight  quilts  were  stolen 
before  the  exhibit  reception. 
Fay  had  to  tell  the  owners 
and  their  families  at  the 
reception  that  their  artwork 
had  been  stolen. 

Quincy  police 

investigated  the  theft  and 
were  able  to  locate  a  witness

who  identified  a  suspect  and 
helped  retrieve  six  of  the  eight 
pocket  and  picture-size 
quilts.  That  witness  will  be 
rewarded  with  a  personally 
designed  patriotic  quilt,  said 
Fay. 

The  suspect,  a  homeless 
woman  in  her  mid-30' s  who 
lives  in  a  halfway  house  was 
charged  in  October, 
according  to  Fay  who  has 
been  at  Quincy  District  Court 
a  number  of  times  as  the  case 
unfolded. 

"She  admits  to  taking 
them,"  said  Fay. 

The  judge  told  the  suspect 
that  "She  had  a  month  to  get 
them  (the  last  two  quilts) 
back,"  said  Fay  who  sent 
pictures  of  the  quilts  to  all  the 
Pine  Street  Inn  shelters  in 
early  November. 

With  the  return  of  the 
quilts.  Fay  said  she  believes 
the  thief  should  be  punished 
in  some  way  with  community 
service  or  oversight.

Bohan  Liu  Semifinalist 
In  Merit  Competition 


Bohan  Liu  of  Quincy.  a 
senior  at  Boston  College 
High  School,  has  been 
named  a  Semifinalist  in  the 
2007  National  Merit  Schol- 
arship Competition. 

Liu  and  16,000  other 
Semifinalists  throughout  the 
nation,  all  academically  tal- 
ented high  school  seniors, 
have  an  opportunity  to  con- 
tinue in  the  competition  for 
some  8,200  Merit  Scholar- 
ship awards,  worth  $33.9 
million,  that  will  be  offered 
next  spring. 

More  than  1 .3  million  stu- 
dents in  over  21,000  U.S. 
high  schools  entered  the 
2007  Merit  Program  when 
they  were  juniors  by  taking 
the  2005  Preliminary  SAT/ 
National  Merit  Scholarship 
Qualifying  Test  (PSAT/ 
NMSQT),  which  served  as 
an  initial  screen  of  program

the  nation's  high  school  se- 


niors were  named  Semifinal- 
ists. The  Semifinalist  talent 
pool  is  designated  on  a  state 
representational  basis,  and 
the  number  t)f  Semifinalists 
in  each  state  is  proportional 
to  its  percentage  of  the  na- 
tional total  of  graduating  se- 
niors.

$65  Average  Tax  Bill  Hike  Seen  For  Homeowners 


(Cont'd  From  Page  1} 

The  2007  valuations 
placed  residential  property  at 
$10.1  billion  or  84.9%  and 
commercial,  industrial  and 
personal  property  at  $1.8 
billion  or  15%. 

In  order  to  maintain  the 
tax  rate  projections,  Phelan 
requested  a  transfer  of  $2 
million  from  the  Stabilization 
Fund.  His  original  request 
filed  on  Dec.  3  was  for  a  $4 
million  transfer. 

According  to  Fantucchio, 
the  average  residential  tax 
increase  wouldjump  to  $  1 1 8, 
rather  than  $65,  if  the  council 
rejected  the  $2  million 
transfer. 

City  Councillors  debated, 
then  approved  by  a  6-2  vote, 
the  $2  million  transfer  from 
the  vStabili/ation  Fund.  Both 
Councillor  John  Keenan, 
Chairman  of  the  Finance 
Committee  and  Ward  4 
Councillor  Jay  Davis 
opposed  the  transfer. 

■"It  is  a  short  term  fix," 
said  Keenan  who  urged 
councillors  to  reject  the 
transfer.  "It  becomes  a  bit  of 
a  shell  game." 

Keenan  outlined 


thousands  of  dollars  in  unpaid 
contract  agreements, 
insurance,  energy  bond 
obligations,  potential  deficits 
in  current  budgets,  the  snow 
and  ice  budget,  and  the 
looming  costs  of  school 
building  construction. 

"We  haven't  received  an 
appropriation  for  the  (new) 
contracts,"  Keenan  said, 
adding,  "Even  with  the 
transfer  of  $2  million,  we're 
still  looking  at  a  shortfall." 

Keenan  said  the  current 
levy  "does  not  meet  our 
obligations  this  year."  He 
cited  .several  departments  that 
are  already  over  budgets  and 
many  departments  which 
have  expended  more  60%  of 
their  budgets  halfway 
through  the  year. 

"We've  got  the  high 
school,"  Keenan  said,  noting 
that  construction  bills  will 
comeduein2(K)9-20IOand 
run  through  2015.  ""We  want 
to  be  able  to  draw  from  the 
savings  account...  smooth  off 
those  tax  rates  during  those 
years.  We're  going  to  need 
$13  million." 

'"We  can't  be  pennywise 
and  pound  foolish.  We  need 


to  put  more  money  back  in 
the  bank,"  Davis  said  that 
building  up  the  cash  reserves 
represented  good  money 
management  strategies. 

Davis  .said  Quincy  a  great 
city  to  live  in  and  offers  many 
amenities,  including  all-day 
kindergarten  which  he  said 
saves  parents  about  $3000  a 
year  on  childcare. 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  and  Ward  5 
Councilor  Douglas  Gutro 
supported  the  $2  million 
transfer  describing  the  vote 
as  a  compromise  between 
voting  for  no  transfer  and  a 
even  higher  tax  increase,  or 
the  mayor's  original  plan  to 
transfer  $4  million. 

Coughlin  said  he'd  heard 
from  "constituents  gravely 
concerned  by  the  rise  in  their 
tax  bills." 

Ward  I  Councillor  Leo 
Kelly  said  he  supported  the 
transfer  in  order  to  return  the 
money  to  the  taxpayers 
"'where  the  money  came 
from." 

Executive  Secretary 
David  Murphy  described  the 
mayor's  decision  to  use  the 
money  saved  in  the  current 


budget  to  maintain  the  tax 
rate. 

Asked  for  his  opinion. 
City  Auditor  Rick  Fitzpatrick 
told  councillors  that  he  didn'  t 
recommend  a  regular 
dependence  on  free  cash  but 
he  did  support  the  transfer. 

"I  don't  think  it's 
something  you  should  show 
a  pattern  on,"  Fitzpatrick 
said,  after  stating  it's 
important  to  keep  "tax  rate  at 
something  that's  affordable." 

For  most  people, 
Fitzpatrick  said  they  are 
"more  concerned  about  how 
Fm  going  to  pay  my  bills 
today." 

"If  they're  unexpended, 
they  have  to  go  back  to  the 
taxpayer,"  Ward  2  Councillor 
Daniel  Raymondi  said,  citing 
bloated  budget  figures  that 
were  "...purposely  intended 
to  arrive  at  a  surplus.  It's 
being  generated  off  the  backs 
of  taxpayer." 

Raymondi  praised  the 
mayor  for  returning  the 
funds,  but  repeatedly  asked 
Fantucchio  why  Phelan  had 
promised  a  $40  real  estate 
tax  decrease  during  the  recent 
mayoral  campaign.

"How  could  he  come  out 
with  a  $100  difference?" 
Raymondi  asked,  adding  the 
$40  reduction  to  the  $65 
increase.  He  asked  how  much 
in  additional  funds  the  city 
would  need  to  reduce  the 
average  residential  tax  bill 
by  $40. 

"You'd  need  about  $6  or 
$7  million."  Fantucchio 
estimated  in  order  to  meet 
the  $40  reduction. 

"What's  troubling  is  the 
chief  executive  could  be  that 
far  off.  It  was  somewhat 
reckless,"  Raymondi 
charged. 

Only  one  resident  Carol 
Fischer  of  Havilend  Street, 
spoke  at  the  hearing.  She  said, 
"I  feel  like  the  system  is 
broken.  My  taxes  have  gone 
up  58%  in  eight  years." 

Fischer  told  councillors 
that  the  time  to  worry  about 
taxes    is    during    budget 


preparation.  She  asked 
councillors  to  view  the  city 
as  a  corporation  and  the 
taxpayers  as  stockholders. 

"Stand  up  again  in  April 
and  May.  Say,  'We  want  the 
average  tax  bill  to  come  down 
X  amount  of  dollars.'" 

"We  can't  keep 
continuing  at  7.2% 
increases,"  Fischer  said, 
adding,  "We're  all  hurting, 
gas  bills,  oil  bills.  What 
happens  when  the  high 
school  bills  start  rolling  in?" 

During  the  tax  rate 
discussion,  several 

councillors  referred  to 
Fischer  strategy. 

After  the  meeting,  Fischer 
said  she  enjoyed  hearing  the 
councillors  use  her 
corporation  analogy .  She  said 
she  is  a  stay-at-home  mother 
of  two  children,  and,  "It  just 
goes  to  show  one  person  can 
make  a  difference."

WALK  FOR  HEALTH  AND  HEALTHY  FEET 


Walking  has  become  a 
hugely  popular  activity  for  fit- 
ness, weight  loss,  and  general 
health.  Since  walking  is  basic 
to  our  lives,  it  is  easy  to  forget 
that  it  is  a  form  of  exercise  and 
that  we  should  treat  it  as  such 
by  having  the  right  equipment. 
If  you  are  walking  for  fitness, 
be  sure  your  shoes  will  protect 
your  feet.  Running  and  walk- 
ing shoes  have  various  levels 
of  cushioning,  so  be  sure  to 
figure  out  how  much  is  right  for 
you.  Since  running/walking 
shoes  do  not  generally  have 
arch  supports,  put  arch  sup- 
port inserts  in  if  that  is  what 
you  need.  Arch  pain,  heel  pain, 
and  sore  ankles  can  all  be  cor- 
rected with  the  right  orthotic  or 
Insole. 

For  tlrase  who  participate 
in  exercise  and  sports  activi- 
ties of  any  kind,  professional 


attention  and  guidance  can 
help  reduce  the  potential  for 
discomfort  and  injury.  And 
since  difficulties  with  your  feet 
can  adversely  affect  your  com- 
fort and  lifestyle,  we  invite  you 
to  call  us  for  an  appointment 
at  781-986-3668  to  receive 
comprehensive  pediatric  care 
geared  to  your  individual 
footcare  needs.  Sports  medi- 
cine is  one  of  our  specialties 
here  at  QUINCY  MEDICAL 
CENTER.  Office  hours  are 
also  available  at  999  North 
Main  St.,  in  the  Randolph 
Medical  Office  BuikJing,  and 
Milton  Medical  Building  in 
Suite  221 . 1  am  affiliated  with 
the  Brockton  and  Good  Sa- 
maritan Hospitals. 

P.S:  Before  spending 
money  on  foot  inserts,  see 
your  podiatrist  to  see  wtiat 
approach  is  t)est  for  your  feet

edge  of  municipal  law."  he 
said.  "But  just  as  important 
he  has  a  great  passion  for 
Quincy  that  shows  in  all  the 
ways  he  is  involved  in  the 
community." 

A  Montclair  native  and  a 
lifelong  Quincy  resident, 
Timmins  has  coached  youth 
soccer  in  his  hometown  for 
17  years  and  also  has 
coached  high  school  basket- 
ball and  youth  baseball  and 
basketball.  He  taught  school 
before  turning  to  law. 

The  solicitor-select  is  a 
graduate  of  Brown  Univer- 
sity and  Suffolk  Law  School. 
He  has  headed  his  own  law 
firm  since  1994  and  served 
as  assistant  city  solicitor  for 
12  years. 

He  is  a  member  of  Quincy 
Access  Television  Board  of 
Trustees  and  provides  color 
commentary  for  a  number  of 
sporting  events  broadcast  by 
QATV. 

"The  decision  to  accept 
this  job  was  difficult  only 
because  I  have  found  my 
work  with  the  School  Com- 
mittee so  enjoyable  and  ful- 


filling," said  Timmins. 

"I  regret  having  to  leave 
the  committee  but  I  feel  very 
grateful  that  Tom  has  offered 
me  the  opportunity  to  serve 
as  the  city's  legal  counsel 
and  I  look  forward  to  the 
work  ahead." 

Murphy,  a  Wollaston  resi- 
dent, was  for  seven  years 
executive  director  of  the  El- 
der Housing  Corp.,  where 
she  oversaw  the  develop- 
ment of  the  Squantum  Gar- 
dens senior  housing  com- 
plex. 

As  operations  director, 
she  will  focus  on  coordinat- 
ing the  day-to-day  operations 
of  city  hall. 

Walker,  30,  who  lives  in 
Adams  Shore,  was  a  Ledger 
reporter  for  eight  years  be- 
fore leaving  the  paper  last 
January  to  volunteer  on 
Koch's  campaign. 

As  policy  director,  he  will 
work  on  the  administration's 
policy  initiatives  and  direct 
communications  from  the 


mayor's  office. 

Under  Koch,  the  current 
Constituent  Ser\  ices  Depart- 
ment will  move  into  the 
mayor's  third  iloor  suite  at 
city  hall,  fulfilling  a  pledge 
Koch  made  during  the  cam- 
paign. 

The  move,  said  Koch,  is 
to  streamline  day-to-day 
government  services  re- 
quested by  residents  and 
marks  the  first  step  in  a 
broader  government  reorga- 
nization plan  to  make  city 
hall  more  "cost-effective,  re- 
sponsive and  efficient." 

The  mayor-elect  said  his 
staff  will  put  together  a  new 
system  to  track  constituent 
requests  and  keep  track  of 
their  progress. 

"We're  going  to  take  a 
hard  look  at  every  area  of 
government  and  this  is  a 
great  first  step,"  said  Koch. 

"The  goal  is  to  have  con- 
stituent services  run  directly 
out  of  the  mayor's  office  and 
this  plan  accomplishes  that."

Quincy  Community  Action  Programs 
Receives  $15,600  From  Project  Bread 


Quincy  Community  Ac- 
tion Programs,  Inc.  (QCAP) 
has  received  a  $  1 5,600  grant 
from  Project  Bread  to  help 
hungry  families  apply  for 
food  stamps. 

QCAP  is  provided  appli- 
cation assistance  to  clients 
using  the  state's  Virtual 
Gateway  online  food  stamp 
application.  This  program,  in 
partnership  with  the  Depart- 
ment of  Transitional  Assis- 
tance (DTA),  gives  eligible 
applicants  a  convenient,  sup- 
portive, and  secure  way  to 
access  benefits  online  at  their 
local  community-based  or- 
ganization. 

The  electronic  process 
provides  greater  conve- 
nience: applicants  can  apply 
right  in  their  own  neighbor- 
hood; they  can  work  with  a 
counselor  who  speaks  their 
language  and  who  coaches 
them  through  the  process; 
and  the  program  gives  appli- 
cants a  unique  tracking  num- 


ber and  a  confirmed  time  and 
date  of  submission,  eliminat- 
ing the  guesswork  about 
when  the  application  has  ar- 
rived for  processing. 

"The  funding  that  Quincy 
Community  Action  Pro- 
grams, Inc.  has  received  for 
the  Food  Stamp  Program  has 
enabled  us  to  hire  staff  dedi- 
cated to  assisting  clients  w  ith 
the  on-line  application  pro- 
cess," said  Beth  Ann  Strollo, 
executive  director  of  Quincy 
Community  Action  Pro- 
grams, Inc. 

"At  QCAP.  our  clients  in- 
clude individuals  and  fami- 
lies who  do  not  have  trans- 
portation to  a  Department  of 
Transitional  Assistance 
(DTA)  office,  elders  with 
mobility  restrictions,  and 
single  moms  with  small  chil- 
dren. The  online  application 
provides  easy  access  to  food 
stamp  benefits  for  a  popula- 
tion who  otherwise  would  be 
left  out,"  Strollo  added. 


QCAP  staff  assist  appli- 
cations with  the  entire  appli- 
cation process,  Strollo  said. 
They  educate  applicants  on 
the  follow-up  process,  fax 
documentation  to  DTA.  and 
facilitate  communication 
with  caseworkers. 

"As  a  result."  Strollo  said, 
"people  who  are  eligible  ior 
food  stamps,  but  who  may 
ha\e  'fallen  through  the 
cracks."  receive  the  benefits 
because  they  ha\e  access  and 
support  from  an  agency  in 
their  community." 

For  more  information  on 
applying  for  food  stamps, 
call  617-479-8181  ext.  100. 
Appointments  are  scheduled 
Tuesday.  10  to  11  a.m.  and  1 
to  2  p.m.;  Wednesday,  10  to 
1 1  a.m.  and  Thursday.  1  to  2

the  Conway  float  in  the  55th 
annual  Quiney  Christinas  pa- 
rade. 

The  parade  theme  this 
year  was  Christmas  Celebra-

and  passengers  were  decked 
out  in  international  cos- 
tumes. 

"It  was  a  great  time  as  al- 
ways," said  Conway-Quincy 
manager  Diane  Fumess.  "We 
had  different  costumes  for 
different  countries  and  a 
blow  up  Earth  Ball  on  the 
front  of  the  float." 

The  float  also  had  a 
Christmas  tree  with  tags 
wishing  the  crowds  Merry 
Christmas  from  different 
countries  and  presents  with 
tags  of  various  foreign 
names.

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Tuesday,  Nov.  27,  at  approximately  9:35  p.m..  Offic- 
ers Tim  Moran  and  Dave  Zupkofska  were  dispatched  to  the 
'Lil  Brazil"  store  on  Washington  Street  to  investigate  an 
activated  burglar  alarm. 

Upon  arrival.  Officer  Moran  notified  headquarters  that 
the  glass  of  the  front  door  had  been  shattered.  Sgt.  Mike 
O'.Shea,  Officer  Matt  Patten  and  K-9  Officer  Scott  Smith 
responded  to  the  scene.  After  searching  the  building  to  no 
avail,  the  owner  was  con- 
tacted. The  officers  noted  a 
large  glass  jewelry  display 
had  been  opened  and  it  ap- 
peared most  of  the  jewelry 
was  missing  Officer  Moran 
also  noted  the  cash  register 
drawer  was  open  and  there 
were  a  few  dollars  on  the 
ground. 

The  owner  arrived  on 
scene  and  Officer  Moran  in- 
quired about  the  surveillance 
monitoring  system  she  had 
installed.  The  owner  first  con- 
firmed that  $25  was  missing  from  the  cash  register  drawer 
and  approximately  $  1 5,000  of  gold  jewelry  was  missing  from 
the  display  case. 

The  officers  on  scene  reviewed  the  video  of  the  break-in 
and  observed  a  male  smash  the  front  door,  jump  over  the 
jewelry  display  case,  take  the  jewelry,  and  then  go  to  the 
register.  The  video  also  shows  a  second  male  standing  at  the 
front  door.  Based  on  the  video,  a  description  was  given  out 
of  the  suspect's  physical  description  anci  of  the  items  stolen. 
Detective  Toin  Cleary  took  photos  and  fingerprints. 
At  approximately  11  p.m..  Detectives  Brian  Coen  and 
Bill  O'Brien  were  in  the  area  of  the  Tedeschi's  store  be- 
cause some  youths  were  acting  suspiciously  and  they  were 
watching  for  drug  activity.  Detective  O'Brien  informed  dis- 
patch that  one  of  the  males  was  flashing  gold  jewelry  around 
in  the  parking  lot. 

As  additional  units  were  responding  to  the  area,  Det. 
O'Brien  approached  the  group,  identified  himself  as  a  po- 
lice officer  and  showed  them  his  badge.  He  told  the  group 
he  was  investigating  an  incident  of  stolen  gold  jewelry  and 
asked  if  anyone  had  any  on  them. 

One  male  spoke  up  and  said  he  did.  Now,  with  plenty  of 
officers  on  scene,  Det.  O'Brien  read  and  explained  Miranda 
rights  to  this  suspect  (#1),  who  stated  he  brought  it  from 
another  male,  (Suspect  #2)  pointing  to  him,  adding  he  paid 
him  half  the  money  for  three  gold  chains. 

Det.  O'Brien  then  interrogated  suspect  #2  and  found  8 
gold  chains  in  the  suspect's  pocket,  along  with  jewelry  on 
his  neck  and  wrist.  Officer  Chris  McDermott  observed  that 
suspect  #3  was  wearing  three  gold  necklaces  and  two  brace- 
lets. The  owner  was  transported  to  the  suspect's  location, 
where  she  identified  the  jewelry  from  each  suspect  as  being 
stolen  from  her  store. 

Det.  Coen  looked  inside  the  suspect's  car  and  saw  a  bro- 
ken gold  chain,  which  was  also  identified  by  the  victim. 
Officer  Zupkofska  checked  the  area  and  found  a  small  plas- 
tic bag  containing  what  appeared  to  be  cocaine,  but  could 
not  be  linked  to  the  suspects. 

Because  the  officers  were  able  to  review  the  surveillance 
tapes,  they  were  able  to  match  up  the  suspect  in  the  store  as 
well  as  the  suspect  waiting  at  the  door.  The  suspects  were 
still  wearing  the  same  clothing  at  the  time  of  the  arrest  that 
they  were  wearing  on  the  videotape. 

Suspect  #1,  a  25-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was  charged 
with  receiving  stolen  property  over  $250.  Suspect  #2,  a  47- 
year-old  Quincy  resident,  and  Susp)ect  #3,  a  43-year-old 
Quincy  resident,  were  both  charged  with  breaking  and  en- 
tering in  the  nighttime  to  commit  a  felony,  willful/malicious 
destruction  of  property  over  $250  (forced  entry  into  Lil' 
Brazil,  breaking  glass  in  a  building,  larceny  over  $250  and 
receiving  stolen  property  over  $250. 

□ 
BEWARE  OF  TELEPHONE  SCAM:  Calls  to  certain 
area  codes  located  outside  of  the  United  States  can  be  very 
costly  to  you.  This  is  how  the  scam  works: 

Victims  will  receive  a  telephone  message  instructing  them 
to  call  a  number  with  an  "809,"  "284"  or  "876"  area  code  to 
collect  a  prize  or  learn  about  a  family  member  who  is  in 
trouble  or  sick.  The  victim  makes  the  call,  not  aware  that 
the  number  is  outside  of  the  United  States,  resulting  in  ex- 
pensive international  call  rates. 

The  calls  often  originate  from  Canada  or  the  Caribbean. 
The  victim  learns  of  the  high  rates  when  they  receive 
their  telephone  bill. 

How  do  you  prevent  this  from  happening  to  you? 

•  Check  the  area  code  to  be  sure  you  recognize  it  as  a 
place  that  you  have  called  before.  If  you  have  suspicious 
about  the  call,  spend  a  few  minutes  researching  where  the 
area  code  is  located. 

•  As  always,  keep  in  mind  that  any  sweepstakes  prize  via 
the  telephone  should  be  approached  with  extreme  caution, 
especially  if  you  do  not  recall  even  entering  the  contest  or 
playing  the  particular  lottery. 

•  If  you  are  victimized  by  this  scam,  contact  your  tele- 
phone service  provider  for  assistance.  Your  bill  should  also 
state  who  the  carrier  was  that  charged  the  high  "scam"  prices.

Regular  Season  Begins  Soon, 

Coaching  Changes  At  Both  High  Schools 

'Tis  The  Season  . . . 
For  Winter  Sports 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

With  Thanksgiving  having 
come  and  gone  and  the  first 
snowfall  of  the  year  now 
upon  us,  you  can  put  away 
those  football  pads,  soccer 
cleats,  and  volleyball  nets, 
and  start  to  get  ready  for  the 
2007-2008  winter  high 
school  sports  season. 

Last  week  and  this  week, 
Quincy  and  North  Quincy 
High  Schools  have  been  in 
the  process  of  holding 
tryouts,  scrimmages  and  pre- 
season games  in  preparation 
for  the  beginning  of  the 
regular  season,  which  begins 
sometime  in  the  next  10  days. 

Since  the  end  of  last  year' s 
winter  sports  season,  there 
have  been  coaching  changes 
at  both  high  schools. 

Long-time  North  Quincy 
girls'  basketball  coach  Doug 
MacFarlane  stepped  down 
and  has  been  replaced  by 
assistant  coach  Michael 
Jorgenson,  a  teacher  at  North 
Quincy.  James  Scott,  also  a 
teacher  at  North,  has  taken 
over  the  reins  as  the  boys' 
wrestling  head  coach.  Scott 
takes  the  place  of  Dan  Regan 
who  stepped  down  after  the 
conclusion  of  the  2006-2007 
season. 

Also,  Michael  Ciarletta 
has  taken  over  as  head  coach 
of  the  North  Quincy  boys' 
ice  hockey  team,  replacing 
long-time  head  coach  Bob 
Doyle  behind  the  bench. 

Quincy  had  one  coaching 
change.  Last  year's  boys' 
wrestling  coach,  Patrick 
Lane,  has  handed  the  controls 
over  to  assistant  head  coach 
Elliott  Columb  this  winter. 

Full  previews  for  all  winter 
sports  teams  will  be 
appearing  in  the  commg 
issues  of  The  Quincy  Sun. 
but  until  then,  here  is  a  list  of 
the  early  season  games  for 
all  of  the  teams. 

QUINCY

The  Quincy  President 
boys'  basketball  team  will

52,  in  the  quarterfinals. 

Quincy's  magical  post- 
season run  ended  with  a  75- 
66  loss  to  Catholic  Memorial

The  Presidents  will  not 


play  a  home  game  until  after 
the  New  Year  (Jan.  8  vs. 
Whitman-Hanson  HS). 

Last  year,  Quincy  finished 
with  an  11-11  record.  They 
entered  the  Division  II  South 
Sectionals  as  the  #20  seed, 
and  preceded  to  defeat  Silver 
Lake,  46-4 1 ,  in  a  preliminary 
round  game,  before  losing  to 
#4  Hingham  HS,  55-41  in

This  year's  team  will 
return  four  out  of  five  starters

(Cont'd  From  Page  21) 

Senior  Vice  President  Larry 
Cancro  and  Greater  Boston 
Convention  &  Visitors  Bu- 
reau President  Pat 
Moscaritolo. 

"George  Regan  has  been 
a  longtime  supporter  of  The 
Arc  and  has  personally 
worked  with  Rose  Pessin," 
said  Arc  CEO  Terri 
Angelone.  "Rose  had  asked 
George  to  be  Man  of  the  Year 
last  year,  shortly  after  the 
2006  Ball,  and  he  agreed 


whole-heartedly,  without 
hesitation.  After  Rose's  pass- 
ing Pat  Moscaritolo  sug- 
gested to  The  Arc 's  Board  of 
Directors  that  the  annual 
award  should  be  renamed  the 
Rose  Pessin  Memorial 
Award  in  her  memory.  lean- 
not  think  of  a  more  fitting 
title  for  this  distinguished 
award." 

"It  was  a  privilege  to  be 
considered  a  friend  by  Rose 
and  I  am  honored  to  receive 
the  first  ever  Rose  Pessin 
Memorial  Award  from  the 


Arc  of  Greater  Boston,"  said 
George  K.  Regan  Jr.  "It  is 
humbling  and  gratifying  to 
be  recognized  for  my  mod- 
est contributions,  in  the  com- 
pany of  so  many  tremendous 
individuals  and  organiza- 
tions who  work  every  day  on 
behalf  of  this  great  cause."

Gym  Phobia 

2,  A  new  fitness  club 
•  has  opened  in  my 
^hborhood  that  offers 
great  classes  and  a  beauti- 
ful building.  Several  of  my 
friends  have  already 
joined,  and  I  would  really 
like  to  join  too.  The  prob- 
lem is  that  I  am  over- 
weight. I  feel  self-con- 
scious and  am  afraid  that 
everyone  will  look  at  me.  I 
know  the  classes  and  other 
equipment  at  the  gym  will 
help  me  lose  weight  and 
feel  better,  but  how  can  I 
get  over  my  fear  and  begin 
doing  something  to  help 
myself? 

A  .You 're  not  alone  — 
•  there  are  many  peo- 
ple who  share  your  fear.  A 
fitness  facility,  although  full 
of  opportunity,  also  can  be 
filled  with  people  who  are 
nervous  about  who  is 
watching,  what  they  look 
like  and  if  they  will  fit  in 
with  other  members.  The 
key  is  to  not  let  this  fear 
keep  you  from  working 
toward  your  fitness  goals 
and  creating  a  healthier  you. 

Take  a  tour  of  the  new  club 
■Ai\d  learn  what  programs  it 
has  to  offer.  Go  with  a  friend 
you  feel  comfortable  around 
and  ask  questions.  Try  to 
tour  the  facility  at  the  time 
of  day  you're  most  likely  to 
attend,  and  also  look  around 
at  the  other  members'  inter- 
action with  each  other  and 
the  staff. 

Ask  the  club's  sales  advis- 
er for  a  trial  membership. 
Many  facilities  will  offer 
you  the  chance  to  work  out 
for  free  for  three  to  seven 
days  so  you  can  find  out  if 
you're  comfortable  there. 
Take  advantage  of  this  trial 


time  to  check  out  classes 
and  programs  while  seeing 
how  you  would  feel  as  a 
member.  This  can  be  a  great 
way  to  begin  to  get  over 
yoiu"  fears. 

If  you  decide  to  join  the 
new  fitness  facility,  meet 
with  a  fitness  professional 
to  get  acquainted  with  the 
gym's  features  and  overall 
layout.  Mo,st  clubs  offer  ini- 
tial orientation  sessions 
with  an  on-staff  pjersonal 
trainer  to  help  you  get  start- 
ed. These  sessions  are 
designed  to  review  your 
medical  and  activity  back- 
ground, design  a  basic 
workout  program  based  on 
your  fitness  goals,  and 
demonstrate  the  proper  use 
of  exercise  equipment. 

Working  one-on-one  with 
a  fitness  professional  also 
can  help  you  gain  confi- 
dence in  your  abilities.  After 
your  initial  orientation  ses- 
sions, you  can  always  con- 
tinue working  with  your 
personal  trainer,  who  will 
help  you  stay  accountable 
and  work  with  you  until  you 
feel  confident  and  comfort- 
able enough  to  work  out  on 
your  own. 

Remember  that  you're  not 
alone.  Almost  everyone  at  a 
fitness  facility  has  a  com- 
mon goal,  and  that  is  to  get 
healthy  or  remain  healthy. 
You  owe  it  to  yourself  to  not 
let  fear  keep  you  from 
reaching  your  goals. 

Always  consult  a  physi- 
cian before  beginning  an 
exercise  program.  If  you 
hm'e  a  fitness  or  training 
question,  write  Andrea  in 
care  of  King  Features  Week- 
ly Ser\'ice.  P.O.  Bo.x  536475.

OTHER  FACTORS  THAT 
CONTRIBUTE  TO  GUM  DISEASE 


L 


You  should  know  that 
there  are  factors  other  than 
brushing  and  flossing  that  af- 
fect your  oral  health.  In  fact, 
research  shows  that  smoking 
is  the  leading  factor  indepen- 
dently associated  with  the 
progression  of  gum  disease. 
According  to  one  study,  more 
than  4 1  %  of  the  study  subjects 
with  progressive  periodontal 
(gum)  disease  were  smokers. 
You  may  also  be  interested  to 
know  that  the  second  most 
important  factor  is  sleep.  Re- 
searchers found  that  subjects 
who  got  seven  to  eight  hours 
of  sleep  per  night,  had  less 
progressive  periodontal  dis- 
ease that  those  who  got  less 
than  six  hours  of  sleep  nightly. 
It  was  also  found  that  high 
stress  levels  and  daily  alcohol 
consumption  had  a  significant 
impact  on  the  progression  of 
gum  disease. 

TTie  goal  of  periodontal 


treatment  is  to  control  any  in- 
fection that  exists  and  to  halt 
progression  of  the  disease.  It 
makes  good  sense  to  start  pre- 
ventive measures  against  den- 
tal disease  as  soon  as  possible. 
When  was  the  last  time  you 
had  a  complete  dental  exam? 
We  make  a  thorough  evalua- 
tion of  existing  and  potential 
problems.  Nothing  is  more 
economical  than  regular 
checkups.  Small  developing 
problems  can  be  corrected  be- 
fore they  become  serious  prob- 
lems. Call  us  today  at  61 7-479- 
6220  to  schedule  a  convenient 
appointment.  We're  located  at 
44  Greenleaf  Street.  We  offer 
the  services  of  anesthesiology 
with  a  fully  trained  and  quali- 
fied anesthesiologist.  Visit  us 
on  the  web  at

P.S.  If  you  are  diabetic,  you 
are  at  increased  risk  for  de\el-

Healthy  Holiday  Helpings 

Dana-Farber  Experts  Offer 
Eating  Tips  This  Holiday  Season 


The  holidays  are  in  full 
swing  and  festive  food  is  ev- 
erywhere. 

While  these  foods  are  de- 
licious to  eat,  some  have  an 
added  bonus  of  containing 
cancer-preventing  nutrients, 
says  Stephanie  Meyers,  MS, 
RD/LDN,  a  nutritionist  at 
Dana-Farber  Cancer  Institute 
in  Boston. 
Pumpkin  isn't  just  for  pie 

Pumpkin  can  be  a  holiday 
staple  for  many  families. 
And  for  some,  it  may  be  one 
oi  the  tastiest  ways  to  en- 
hance the  body's  natural  can- 
cer fighting  ability,  says 
Meyers.  Pumpkins  are 
packed  with  cancer  fighting 
nutrients  called  carotenoids, 
which  have  been  linked  to 
the  prevention  of  colon, 
prostate,  breast,  and  lung 


cancer. 

Although  many  people 
only  think  of  eating  pump- 
kin when  it  is  made  into  a 
pie,  it  also  can  be  consumed 
in  a  variety  of  other  ways,  in- 
cluding roasted  pumpkin, 
pumpkin  soup  and  high  fiber 
pumpkin  muffins  or  bread. 

Other  orange  vegetables, 
including  sweet  potatoes, 
carrots  and  squash,  such  as 
acorn  and  butternut,  also  are 
rich  in  carotenoids. 

Meyers  stres.ses  that  it  is 
more  beneficial  to  consume 
carotenoids  from  whole 
foods  rather  than  from 
supplements,  as  the  caro- 
tenoids in  the  pill-form  do 
not  appear  to  have  the  same 
protective  properties.  In  fact, 
that  is  true  of  many  of  the 
nutrients  in  foods.  Eafing 


EMPLOYEES  AND  DOCTORS  AT  Orthopedic  Surgery  of 
Quincy,  Inc.,  donated  a  complete  Thanksgiving  dinner  which 
included  a  25-pound  turkey  and  $120  gift  certificate  to  a  DOVE 
Shelter  in  Quincy.  DOVE  shelters  woman  and  their  children 
who  are  victims  of  domestic  violence.  Kathy  Norris  (right)  of 
DOVE,  Inc.  told  Marisa  Heller,  the  practice's  organizer,  that 
the  meal  would  feed  the  18  people  expected  at  the  shelter  on 
Thanksgiving.

whole  foods  typically  pro- 
vides greater  health  benefits 
than  taking  a  dietary  supple- 
ment. 

An  Apple  a  Day 

Apples  are  another  food 
with  cancer  preventing  prop- 
erties, thanks  to  the  nutrient 
quercitin,  which  protects 
DNA  in  the  cell  from  dam- 
age that  could  lead  to  the 
development  of  cancer. 

Meyers  points  out,  how- 
ever, that  apples  provide  the 
most  protection  against  can- 
cer when  eaten  with  the  skin 
on  and  not  combined  with 
sugar  and  fats,  such  as  in  a 
pie. 
Not  Just  For  the  Holidays 

Cranberries  also  offer  nu- 
tritional protection  against 
cancer.  Cranberries  contain 
benzoic  acid,  which  has  been 
shown  to  inhibit  the  growth 
of  lung  cancer,  colon  cancer, 
and  some  forms  of  leukemia. 

Meyers  reminds  her  pa- 
tients that  cranberries  aren't 
just  for  the  holidays  and  en- 
courages them  to  eat  cranber- 
ries year-round.  She  says  that 
buying  bags  of  cranberries 
now,  while  they  are  at  their 


nutritional  best,  and  popping 
them  in  the  freezer  for  later 
will  help  enstu'e  that  the  ber- 
ries provide  the  highest  level 
of  cancer  protection  all  year 
long. 

Color  your  world 

The  overall  key  to  finding 
cancer  fighting  foods  is  to 
look  for  a  lot  of  color.  The 
brighter  and  richer  the  pig- 
ment, the  higher  the  level  of 
nutrients. 

"You  want  to  load  up  your 
plate  with  as  much  colorful 
plant-based  foods  as  you  can, 
such  as  tomatoes,  carrots, 
and  sweet  potatoes"  explains 
Meyers.  "Eating  a  plant- 
based  diet  all  year  long  is  the 
best  way  to  help  lower  your 
risk  of  cancer."

wealth Hematology-Oncol- 
ogy  (CHO)  recently  received 
the  distinctions  of  "Best

Best  Doctors  in  America  is 
derived  from  a  peer-re- 
viewed survey  of  more  than 
40,000  physicians  in  the 
United  States. 

The  survey  asked  which 
specialists  they  would 
choose  for  care  of  them- 
selves or  a  loved  one.  Only 
those  doctors  recognized  in 
the  top  3%-5%  of  their  spe- 
cialty earn  this  honor.

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  You've  let  yourself  be 
distracted  from  what's  really 
imfxjrtant.  But  love  finally 
gets  your  attention  this  week. 
However,  it  comes  with  a 
challenge  that  could  create  a 
problem. 

TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  Be  careful  not  to  bully 
others  into  following  your 
lead.  Best  advice:  Persuade, 
don't  push,  and  you'll  get  the 
cooperation  you  need  to 
move  forward  with  your 
plans. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  Resist  the  urge  to  gloat 
now  that  you've  proved  your 
detractors  wrong.  Instead, 
charm  them  back  into  your 
circle.  Remember:  A  former 
foe  can  become  your  best 
ally. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  You  might  want  to  claim 
all  the  credit  for  making  this 
holiday  season  special.  But  is 
it  worth  producing  a  lot  of 
hurt  feelings  by  rejecting 
offers  of  help?  Think  about  it. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Ignore  a  co-worker's  ques- 
tionable behavior.  Instead, 
put  your  energy  into  making 
your  own  project  special. 
Then  sit  back  and  purr  over 
your  well -deserved  applause. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  You  might  not 
want  to  accept  those  suggest- 
ed changes  in  your  work- 
place. But  don't  chuck  them 
out  before  you  check  them 
out.  You  could  be  happily 
surprised. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Your  holiday 
planning  might  have  to  take  a 
back  seat  for  a  bit  so  that  you 
can  handle  a  problem  with  a 
friend  or  family  member. 
Your  schedule  resumes  by 
the  8th. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Relationships 
in  general  benefit  during  the 
early  part  of  the  week, 
including  in  the  workplace. 
Also  expect  some  overdue 
changes  in  a  personal  situa- 
tion. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21 )  "FVu- 
dencc"  should  be  your 
watchword  this  week.  Best 
not  to  be  too  open  about  some 
of  the  things  that  are  current- 
ly happening  in  your  life. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Money  is 
on  your  mind,  so  you'd  best 
mind  how  you're  spending  it. 
Take  another  look  at  that  hol- 
iday budget  and  see  where 
you  can  make  adjustments. 

AQUARIUS  (January'  20  to 
February  18)  Resolving  to 
revive  an  old  friendship 
could  open  some  old  wounds. 
Are  you  sure  you  want  to  risk 
that?  Think  this  through 
before  making  a  commit- 
ment. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  Your  need  to  know 
more  about  a  new  friend 
could  lead  to  some  startling 
revelations.  Best  advice: 
Keep  an  open  mind  about 
what  you  learn  until  all  the 
facts  arc  in. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
Your  loyalty  to  friends  makes 
you  a  very  special  person  to 
those  whose  lives  you've 
touched.

Much  has  been  written  and  said  about 
optimism  and  pessimism.  Here  are  a 
few  that  we  especially  like: 

"An  optimist  laughs  to  forget;  a  pes- 
simist forgets  to  laugh." 
DON  McCarthy        'The  optimist  proclaims  that  we  live 
Managing  Director     in  the  best  of  all  possible  worlds;  the 
pessimist  fears  that  is  true."  -  James 
Branch  Cabell 

"A  pessimist  sees  only  the  dark  side  of  the  clouds,  and 
mopes;  a  philosopher  sees  both  sides  and  shrugs:  an  optimist 
doesn't  see  the  clouds  at  all  -  he's  walking  on  them."  D.O. 
Flynn 

"Your  morning  thoughts  may  determine  your  conduct  for 
the  day.  Optimistic  thoughts  will  make  your  day  bright  and 
productive,  while  pessimistic  thinking  will  make  it  dull  and 
wasteful.  Face  each  day  cheerfully,  smilingly  and  courageously, 
and  it  will  naturally  follow  that  your  work  wiU  be  a  delightful 
accomplishment"  -  William  M.  Peck 

Don't  have  an  attitude  of  accepting  life  as  it  is  ...  Be 
optimistic  -  and  further  devek>p  what  is  good  and  eliminate 
what  is  bad;  and  for  the  really  good  life,  dream  on  with  the 
intentioiis  of  nuking  them  come  true. . .

Council  Approval  Sought 

For  $3.3  Million 
13- Acre  Land  Purchase 


By  L Al'RA  (.RIFFIN 

The  C\>nimunity 

Preservation  Committee 
(CPO.  will  seek  City  Council 
approval  Monday  oi  a  $3.3 
million  bond  issue  for  the 
purchase  ol"  13.75  acres  off 
Circuit  and  Bower  Road  in 
Quincy  known  as  the 
"Ha/eltine"  pro}->ert\ . 

The  property  was 
previously  owned  by 
A\  alonBay  Communities, 
Inc.  which  had  proposed  a 
1 46-unit  de\  elopment  on  the 
site  located  oU  Falls 
Boulevard.  Quincx  Point. 
The  project  raised 
considerable  opposition  and 
contio\ers\  in  that  area. 

This  purchase  is  the  last 
of  the  three  major 
acquisitions  recommended 
this  >ear  by  the  CPC. 

The  Cit\  has  alread\ 
approN  ed  the  purchase  of  the 
3.5  acres  on  Sea  Street  know  n 
as  Cobblestone  propert\  for 
SI. 2  million  and  a  small 
propeny  know  n  the  Turning

Perdios  noted  that  the 
purchases  will  be  paid  for 
through  bonds  issued  for  four 
to  Five  years.  This  will  reduce 
the  amount  of  funds  available 
for  preservation  projects  for 
the  ne.xt  few  years. 

In  this  the  first  year  oi 
CPA  expenditures,  Perdios 
said  the  CPC  had  $2.2  million 
to  allocate  for  purchases, 
historic  preservation  and 
affordable  housing.  Of  that 
sum,  $1.1  million  w  as  raised 
through  real  estate  taxes  and 
the  state  contributed  a  \{W( 
match  o{  the  city's 
$1. million. 

.At  this  time,  the  state 
matches  all  preservation 
mone\  raised  by  a  city  or 
town. 

"It's  not  whether  or  not. 
they  will  (reduce)  the  match; 
it's  by  how  much,"  said 
Perdios  who  said  that  the 
committee  expects  either  a 
15'^(  match  next  year  or  60%. 
"E\  en  in  the  worst  case, 
we' 11  get  a 30 to 35%  match," 
Perdios  said.  Quincy  is  one 
of  1 20  communities  in  which 
residents  voted  to  contribute 
funds  to  preservation  and 
affordable  housing  projects. 
In  addition  to  the  land 
acquisitions,  the  CPC  this 
year  has  funded  such  areas  as 
affordable  housing  in  North 
Quincy,  improvements  to  the 
Houghs  Neck  boardwalk  and 
set  aside  $100,000  for 
Souther  Tidal  Mill. 

At  their  most  recent 
meeting,  the  CPC  voted  to 
approve  emergency  funding 
for  urgent  repairs  to  protect 


the  Souther  Tidal  Mill  off 
Southern  Artery.  The  old 
mill  building  is  considered 
the  oldest  surviving  grist  and 
saw  mill  in  America. 

Perdios  said  this  week  that 
the  committee  is  filing  a 
request  for  an  emergency 
designation  by  the 
Massachusetts  Historical 
Commission  which  will 
speed  up  the  repairs  to  the 
mill. 

The  work  can  and  will  still 
be  done  without  the  MHC 
declaration,  said  I'erdios,  "It 
will  just  get  done  faster  (with 
approval)." 

Both  Davis  and  Perdios 
said  the  CPC  effi>i1s  this  year 
ha\  e  been  wondeiful.  Perdios 
said  members  met  every 
week  for  three  to  four  hours 
to  review  projects. 

The  Committee  will 
reopen  the  CPC  list  in 
February  after  a  public 
hearing. 

Davis  said  that  he  intends 
to  step  down  from  the  CPC 
once  the  City  Council 
leadership  election  is 
concluded.  Davis  is  expected 
to  be  elected  council 
president.  Under  council 
rules,  Davis  will  select  his 
own  successor  on  the  CPC. 

Other  committee

pressed their  gratitude  to  the 
community  leaders  and  to  all 
the  other  volunteers  manning 
kettles  at  other  locations. 

"We  are  extremely  grate- 
ful for  the  tremendous  sup- 
port we  receive  from  so 


many  volunteers,"  they  said.

Puleo  Appears  To  Have  The  Votes 


Pl'LEO 


TIMMINS 


The  Joint  Convention  isn't  until  January  but  Nick 
Puico  appears  to  already  have  the  necessary 
votes  to  fill  the  upcoming 
\  acancy  on  the  School  Committee. 

One  of  those  \  otes  is  that  of  Mayor- 
elect  Tom  Koch  who  will  chair  the 
convention  as  chairman  of  the  School 
Committee. 

"Nick's  appointment  will   most 
closely  retlect  the  will  of  the  voters." 
Koch  says.  ".And  I  firmly  believe  it  is  the  fairest  way  for 
us  to  proceed." 

Puleo  was  the  runner-up  in  the  November  city  election 
lor  three  schi>ol  committee  seats. 

Incumbent  James  Timmins  will  be  lea\ing  to  become 
cit\  solicitor  under  Koch. 

A  Joint  Con\ention  i>f  the  City 
Council  and  School  Committee  will 
be  held  in  January  to  fill  thee  vacancy. 
Nine  councillors.  si.\  members  of 
the  school  committee  and  Koch  as 
chaimian  by  virtue  oi  his  office  as 
mayor  will  \ote  on  Tinimins" 
replacement. 

Puleo  reportedly  has  already  lined  up  a  majority  of 
tho.se  votes. 

Eileen  Mullen  who  finished  only  160  votes  behind 
Puelo  can  enter  a  challenge  to  try  to  cut  into  those  Puelo 
votes.  So  can  others  as  candidates. 

The  last  Joint  Convention  was  held  in  2002.  called  to 
fill  the  vacancy  created  w  hen  William 
Phelan  was  elected  mayor  with  two 
\ears  left  on  his  school  committee 
term. 

There  were  something  like   15 
candidates  and  after  several  rounds  of 
voting.  Elaine  Dwyer  emerged  as 
w  inner  by  an  8-to-7 
margin  over  Jay  Davis  who  went  on  to 
become  Ward  4  councillor  and  is 
expected  to  be  the  new  city  council 
president. 

Dwyer  retained  the  seat  in  the  2003 
election   and  was   re-elected  in 
November.  She  is  currently  vice- 
chairwoman. 
Puleo' s  vote  in  November  was  7,296  with  Mullen

Puleo.  former  president  of  the  Ward  5  Community

this  year. 

But  he  is  no  stranger  on  the  political  scene.  He  was 
Councillor  Joseph  Finn's  campaign 
manager  two  years  ago.  Finn,  no 
doubt,  will  be  one  of  Puleo's  votes  as 
the  Joint  Convention. 

Puleo  is  senior  budget  analyst  for 
the  state  Senate  Ways  and  Means 
Committee. 

He  w  as  born  and  raised  in  Quincy.

to  her  colleagues,  school  officials  and 
others  who  helped  make  her  1 6  years 
on  the  board  so  meaningful. 

Sixteen  years  of  distinguished 
service  and  dedication  to  children. 

She  decided  not  to  seek  re-election 

so  she  would  have  the  time  to  enter  a 

doctorate  program  at  Lesley  University  in  Cambridge. 

She  is  attending  night  classes  at  Lesley,  which  will 

take  longer  than  the  traditional  four  years  to  complete 

requirements  for  the  doctorate. 

Purpose  of  the  doctorate  is  to  qualify  her  to  spread 
her  dedication  to  children-especially  orphans  and 
abandoned  youngsters  around  the  world. 

It  was  during  a  trip  to  Cuzco,  Peru  last  December  that 
made  her  want  to  do  more  for  children. 

She  spent  1 5  days  volunteering  at  a  girls'  orphanage. 
She  also  submitted  a  proposal  for  a  new  orphanage. 
She  paid  for  the  trip  herself  and  took  it  on  her  vacation 
time. 

When  she  returned,  she  said: 
"It  made  me  realize  that  as  many  things  as  I  would 
like  to  do  in  my  life,  working  with  children  is  what  I  am 
called  to  do." 

And  she'll  do  a  lot  more  for  them  with  that  doctorate.

THIS  POSTCARD  from  the  193(rs  shows  the  main  of- 
fice of  the  old  Qu'ncy  Trust  Company  at  I486  Hancock 
St.  at  the  corner  of  Cottage  Avenue.  The  bank,  which 
was  founded  by  a  group  of  Quincy  businessmen  in  1915, 
built  this  granite  building  in  1918  at  a  cost  of  $40,000. 
It  is  of  Classical  Creek  Revival  styling  with  a  pointed 
(ireek  pediment  facing  the  corner  and  two  Doric  col- 
umns one  on  each  side  of  the  handsome  double  wooden 
doors.  In  the  early  1980's,  the  bank  moved  across  the 
street  to  a  larger  building  at  number  1495  and  became 
the  Hancock  Bank.  Tag's  Furniture  and  Sleep  Shop  then 
occupied  this  building  until  1988  when  it  became  home 
.to  Quincy  Jade,  a  Chinese  restaurant.  Recently,  new 


management  relocated  Quincy  Jade  around  the  cor- 
ner and  this  building  was  sold.  It  has  now  been  com- 
pletely gutted  and  is  being  rebuilt  to  open  in  the  spring 
as  an  upscale  dining  and  nightlife  destination.  In  addi- 
tion to  its  main-floor  dining  room  and  lounge,  it  will 
have  a  function  room  on  the  lower  level  and  indmir/ 
outdoor  rooftop  seating.  Both  will  be  accessible  bv  an 
open  stairway  and  an  elevator.  VV  hen  this  postcard  was 
published,  the  store  on  the  left  was  the  Massik  dry  goods 
store.  It  is  now  a  Thai  restaurant.  To  contact  Tom 
Galvin,  e-mail  tmgalvin@verizon.net.

Build  The  Approved  Track  At  Pageant  Field 


There  is  only  one  location 
for  a  new  track  facility  in 
Quincy  -  the  approved  loca- 
tion at  Pageant  Field.  This 
location  has  received  all  re- 
quired approvals  from  the 
Quincy  Park  and  Recreation 
Board  and  the  Quincy  City 
Council. 

Mayor-Elect  Koch  had  the 
opportunity  to  select  a  track 


location  four  years  ago  when 
he  was  the  Parks  Commis- 
sioner for  the  City  of  Quincy 
and  he  failed  to  select  an  ap- 
propriate site  which  has  led 
the  city  to  the  present  situa- 
tion. 

The  approved  track  facil- 
ity at  Pageant  Field  will  be  a 
multi  purpose  use  facility 


which  will  benefit  the  track 
programs,  other  sports,  and 
all  residents  of  the  city. 

Mayor-Elect  Koch  needs 
to  place  his  personal  prefer- 
ences aside  and  do  what  is 
right  for  the  student  track 
athletes  and  all  residents: 
build  the  approved  track  at 
Pageant  Field. 


Mr.  Koch,  this  is  an  oppor- 
tunity for  you  to  show  true 
leadership  as  the  Mayor- 
Elect.  Please  begin  construc- 
tion of  the  approved  track 
facUity  at  Pageant  Field  im- 
mediately'

City  Ready 

To  Do  Part  After 

Pearl  Harbor  Attack 


By  FRANK  MCAl  LEY 

"The  nation  is  at  war. 

"America  has  been  called  to  defend  its  home  and 
institutions.  The  City  of  Quincy  as  a  community  rich  in 
historic  traditions,  is  ready  to  do  its 
part  in  national  defense.  Our  8(),()0() 
men,  women  and  children  will  be  in 
the  service  of  our  country  for  the 
duration  of  the  war  and  will  be 
prepared  to  join  in  the  fruits  of 
another  glorious  victory." 

Mayor  Thomas  .S.  Burgin  added  that  "Quincy  has  always 
measured  up  to  its  responsibilities  in  the  time  of  national 
crisis.  The  courage  and  patriotism  of  the  Adams's  and  John 
Hancock  left  an  indelible  impression  on  this  communit>.  It 
still  lives  where  independence  began."

wartime  basis.  The  mayor  called  upon  theciti/ens  of  Quincv

Nine  From  Quincy  High 
Earn  AP  Scholar  Awards 


Michelle  M.  Cronin  Wed  To  Satyen  Patel 


Nine  students  at  Quincy 
High  School  have  earned  the 
designation  of  APwScholar  by 
the  College  Board  in  recog- 
nition of  their  exceptional 
achievement  on  the  college- 
level  Advanced  Placement 
Program  Exams. 

The  Advanced  Placement 
Program  offers  high  school 
students  an  opportunity  to 
take  college  level  courses 
and  receive  college  credit, 
advanced  placement  or  both 
for  a  successful  performance 
on  the  AP  Exams. 

The  nine  from  Quincy 
High  School  and  their 
achievements  included: 

•  Paige  Neumann,  the  AP 
Scholar  with  Distinction 
Award  by  earning  an  average 
grade  of  at  least  3.5  on  all  AP 
Exams  taken,  and  a  grade  of 
3  or  higher  on  four  or  more 
of  these  exams. 


•  Kshitij  Nagpal  and  Judy 
Ngai,  the  AP  Scholar  with 
Honor  Award  by  earning  an 
average  grade  of  at  least  3.25 
on  all  AP  Exams  taken  and 
grades  of  3  or  higher  on  four 
or  more  of  these  exams. 

•  Jiawei  Chen,  June 
Dandhanin,  Wu  Xi  He,  Tina 
Hicks,  Ralfi  Kondili  and 
Jinlong  Tan,  the  AP  Scholar 
Award  by  completing  three 
or  more  AP  Exams  with 
grade  of  3  or  higher. 

Wu  Xi  He  is  a  junior  at 
Quincy  High  School  and 
has  at  least  one  more  year  to 
earn  another  AP  Scholar 
Award. 

The  students  took  AP  Ex- 
ams in  May,  2007,  after  com- 
pleting challenging  college- 
level  courses  at  their  high 
schools.  About  1 8  per  cent 
of  the  more  than  1.4  million 
students  who  took  the  exams 


achieved  the  rank  of  AP 
Scholar. 

Most  of  the  nation's  col- 
leges award  credit,  advanced 
placement  or  both  based  on 
a  successful  performance  on 
the  AP  Exams.  Many  award 
a  full  year's  credit  to  students 
presenting  a  sufficient  num- 
ber of  qualifying  grades. 

The  College  Board, 
founded  in  1900,  is  a  not- 
for-profit  membership  orga- 
nization of  more  than  5,200 
schools  and  educational 
groups  whose  mission  is  to 
connect  students  to  college 
success  and  opportunity. 

Each  year,  the  College 
Board  serves  seven  million 
students  and  their  parents, 
23,000  high  schools  and 
3,500  college  through  pro- 
grams and  services  in  admis- 
sions, guidance,  assessment, 
financial  aid,  enrollment  and 
teaching.

Men/  ol  Qmnev.  whose  26 
\ ear-old  cousin.  Sgt.  Mat- 
theu  Men/,  is  serving  in 
Iraq. 

There's  nearly  h. ()()() 
miles  betueen  the  two  cous-

tanuly  members  try  to  keep 
in  touch  and  try  to  send  w  hat- 
e\er  is  needed  or  enjoyed 
throughout  the  year,  whether 
It  is  popcorn,  candy  or  the 
sergeant  s  laptop. 

In  addition,  he  gave  Sgt. 
Men/'s  name  to  a  support 
group,  which  ships  olY toilet- 
ries and  grooming  aides. 

Men/  said  his  cousin  told 
him.  "There  are  some  sol- 
diers that  don't  get  anything 
It's  so  sad."  Now.  of  course, 
there  are  holiday  packages, 
said  Men/.  "Hvery  one  in  the 
family  is  sending  some- 
thing." 

This  is  Sgt.  Menz's  sec- 
ond tour  in  Iraq,  according  to 
his  cousin.  "He  enlisted  be- 
cause of  what  happened  9- 
11.1  remember  him  telling 
me  that  w  as  why  he  enlisted. 

"He  served  12  months  in 
Iraq  in  2004  and  2005  as  a 
medic  and  EMT  with  the 
118-  Medic  Battalion.  He 
worked  in  a  combat  hospi- 
tal." said  Menz. 

After  his  first  tour.  Sgt. 
Menz  was  hired  by  the 
We\  mouth  Fire  Department. 
He  was  called  back  to  duty 
on  March  23  and  given  five

He  landed  in  Kuwait  on  his 
26"^^  birthday  in  the  middle  of

degrees. 

Born  in  Quincy,  Sgt. 
Menz  is  a  firefighter  on  leave

quality,  top  service  and  timely  delivery 
still  continues  uninterrupted  for  the  fourth 
generation  of  Holbrow's  with  Patty 
Holbrow  Long. 

Patty  grew  up  in  the  flower 
business  and  has  owned  and  operated 
Holbrow's  Flowers  at  Boston  City  Hall 
Plaza  for  the  past  20  years. 

A  few  months  ago,  Patty  ex- 
panded her  business  when  she  opened  her 
new  sunny  shop  at  the  comer  of  Billings 
Road  and  Pierce  St. 

"I  love  it",  Patty  said  of  the 
Norfolk  Downs  shopping  area,  "Quincy's 
a  beautiful  city  and  I'm  surrounded  by  top 
quality  shops  just  like  mine,  and  there's 
such  a  variety  here." 

"I've  been  living  in  Quincy  for 


25  years  and  I  decided  it  would  be  nice  to 
have  a  business  in  Quincy,"  she  said. 

Holbrow's  offers  quality  and 
service.  The  firm  belongs  to  a  regional 
flower  delivery  cooperative  that  offers 
daily  stops  at  all  Boston  hospitals,  as  well 
as  20  cities  and  towns  in  the  metropolitan 
area. 

In  addition,  Holbrow's  wire 
services  provide  instant  access  to  quality 
florists  all  over  the  country  and  all  over 
the  world. 

"You  know  we'll  stand  behind 
every  item  we  sell  because  we  have  for 
generations.   It's  ingrained  in  us,  back  to 
my  grandfather,"  said  Patty. 

"That's  so  important  today.  You 
really  have  to  know  and  trust  your 
florist." 

Holbrow's  Flowers  offers  quality 
year-round  for  all  occasions  from  births, 
birthdays  to  get-well  arrangements, 
funeral  designs  and  sympathy  bouquets. 

"Actually,  people  love  and  need 
flowers  for  every  day.  Whether  it's  just  to 
say  hi,  offer  good  wishes  or  sympathy." 
Patty  said,  promising  her  best  efforts  to 
meet  every  request. 

Patty  is  excited  about  being  here 
and  welcomes  all  to  her  bright  airy  store 
in  North  Quincy  where  an  array  of 
pointsettias,  Christmas  centerpieces, 


9-CotSrozu's 


wooden  trains,  and  cheery  Norfolk  pines,  along 
with  exotic  phaleaonopsis  and  bromeliad,  knick 
knacks  and  wall  plaques,  fascmate  the  visitor. 

Now,  access  for  Holbrow's  Quincy 
customers  is  so  easy,  she  said,  descnbing  the 
easy  on-street  parking  on  Billings  Road  and  the 


80-spot  Vane  Street  public  parking  nght 
across  from  her  new  shop.

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 
Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Mercantile  Storage  And  Public  Safety 


We  were  talking  among.st 
ourselves  in  the  office  look- 
ing for  other  proactive  ways 
to  prevent  fire,  to  minimize 
its  impact  if  it  occurs  and  to 
improve  on  overall  public 
safety  within  buildings. 

One  lieutenant  suggested 
that  we  attempt  to  convey  the 
importance  of  proper  com- 
bustible storage  within  mer- 
cantile occupancies,  espe- 
cially during  the  holiday  sea- 
son. 

Therefore,  where  educa- 
tuMi  is  such  an  impoiiant  as- 
pect of  our  proacti\  e  attempts 
toward  fire  safety  let  me  take 
this  opportunity  to  convey 
some  ivgiilations  as  they  ap- 
pl\  lo  department  stores, 
egress  access  and  storage 
u  ithin  them. 

Within  stores.  "Displays, 
aisles,  passage^^  ays  or  stair- 
ways in  any  building  shall 
not  be  obstructed  with 
tables,  showcases,  Christ- 
mas trees,  vending  ma- 
chines or  other  obstructions 
during  hours  when  the 
building  is  open  to  the 
public. .  .A  minimum  unob- 
structed aisle  width  of  44 
inches  shall  be  maintained. 
Good  housekeeping  shall  be 


maintained  at  all  times." 

in  other  words  these  two 
regulations  emphasize  keep- 
ing exit  access  unobstructed, 
free  and  accessible  for  pa- 
tron use  and  employees  in 
the  event  of  an  emergency. 

A  large  loss  fire  within 
Quincy  in  1994  within  a  bulk 
merchandising  retail  store 
indicated  how  little  time  pa- 
trons and  employees  can  have 
to  exit  a  building  under  the 
duress  of  a  rapidly  building 
fire.  Sur\  eillance  video  of  the 
incident  indicated  rapid  vi- 
sual obscuration  by  smoke, 
and  rapid  Hainc  spread.  Un- 
obstructed exit  access  was 
essential  (ov  survi\  al  in  that 
building,  at  that  moment. 

"Storage  within  these 
stores,  buildings  and  struc- 
tures shall  be  orderly,  shall 
not  be  w  ithin  two  feet  of  the 
ceiling...''  In  those  build- 
ings with  a  sprinkler  sys- 
tem, storage  must  be  kept  a 
minimum  18  inches  below 
the  sprinkler  heads  as  well. 

We  discussed  the  mean- 
ing of  the  former  regulation 
where  it  emphasizes  the  im- 
portance of  the  two-foot 
clearance  from  the  ceiling. 
We  concluded  the  impor-

tance  of  that  open  space 
comes  into  play  should  the 
tire  department  have  to  ex- 
tinguish a  fire  within  stacked 
storage.  Hose  streams  would 
be  ineffective  if  a  fire  cannot 
be  reached  while  proper  spac- 
ing can  allow  water  stream 
across. 

The  same  holds  true  of 
the  1 8-inch  clearance  below 
sprinkler  heads.  When  acti- 
vated, sprinkler  heads  with 
their  deflectors  are  designed 
to  I'orm  a  spray  pattern  assur- 
ing effectiveness  and  suffi- 
cient coverage  within  a  room. 
They  arc  specifically  spaced 
for  this  reason.  The  clear- 
ance allows  the  pattern  to 
form  as  designed  to  affect 
maximum  sprinkler  head  ef- 
fectiveness. 

This  article  is  written  to 
inform  owners  and  manag- 
ers of  the  regulations  storage 
within  stores,  to  attain  com- 
pliance and  maintain  a  safe 
premise  for  employees  and 
patrons.  There  are  many  such 
retail  stores  inspected  by  us 
on  a  quarterly  basis  while 
this  December  our  efforts  will 
expand  to  smaller  locations 
as  well.  As  always  we  are 
available  to  discuss  any  ques- 
tions you  may  have  regard- 
ing storage  within  your  build- 
ing or  the  regulations  referred 
to  here. 

Have  a  safe  and  prosper- 
ous holiday  season.

Old  Glory  Needs  More  Respect  At  Wollaston  Beach 


(Cont'd  From  Page  1) 

Tuesday,  the  same  flag 
was  hung  from  the  right  of 
the  three  flagpoles. 

On  some  days,  they've 
raised  the  other  two  flags  to 
full  height  with  the  United 
States  flag  and  on  other  days, 
they  placed  the  other  flags 
lower  as  if  they  were  at  half 


staff. 

They  switch  the  flags  from 
pole  to  pole  but  can't  seem  to 
get  the  symmetry,  height,  or 
lighting  decided,  Fischer 
said. 

"It's  a  matter  of  respect  to 
get  it  right,"  Fisher  said, 
adding  that  if  this  were  a 
private  group,  he  wouldn't 
comment.  Part  of  the  protocol 


for  flag  display  on 
government  properties 
follows: 

'The  flag  of  the  United 
States  of  America  should  be 
at  center  and  on  the  highest 
point  of  the  group  when  a 
number  of  flags  of  states  or 
localities  or  pennants  of 
societies  are  grouped  and 
displayed  from  staffs. " 


Bank  Of  Canton  Quincy  Branch 
Collecting  Hats  And  Mittens 


The  Bank  of  Canton  an- 
nounces its  Quincy  branch, 
located  at  275  Quincy  Ave., 
is  collecting  hats  and  mittens 
for  donation  to  the  Salvation 
Army  in  Quincy. 

This  year,  the  Bank  of 
Canton  is  asking  local  pa- 
trons to  decorate  the  bank's 
Christmas  tree  with  hats  and 


mittens  in  lieu  of  ornaments. 
During  the  holidays,  the 
Salvation  Army  provides 
food,  gifts,  toys  and  clothing 
to  needy  families.  Its  Quincy 
Corps  offers  services  in  adult 
healthcare,  emergency  assis- 
tance, holiday  assistance  and 
senior  vacations,  as  well  as 
youth  programs  such  as

Saturday,  Dec.  15  at  10  a.m. 


in  the  large  meeting  room  at 
the  Thomas  Crane  Public 
Library,  40  Washington  St. 
The  program  is  sponsored 
by  the  Friends  of  the  Thomas 
Crane  Library. 


Camp  Wonderland  and 
SunShine  Pre-School. 

"The  Salvation  Army  is  an 
outstanding  organization  that 
has  been  helping  the  commu- 
nity for  decades,"  said  Ken 
Anderson,  assistant  vice 
president  and  branch  man- 
ager of  Bank  of  Canton's 
Quincy  branch.  "We're 
happy  to  help  further  its 
cause  and  help  those  in  the 
community  stay  warm  this 
winter." 

Quincy  residents  are  en- 
couraged to  bring  hats  and 
mittens  to  Bank  of  Canton's 
Quincy  branch.  For  more  in- 
formation on  how  to  make  a 
donation,  call  Ken  Anderson 
at  617-770-4222. 


(adopted  by  the  Sational 
Flag  Conference) 

Fisher  said  the  pri>blem  is 
that  the  three  flagpoles  stand 
at  exactly  the  same  height 
behind  the  short  wall  of 
sparkling  rough  granite 
blocks  engraved,  "Entrance 
to  Quincy  Shore  Reservation, 
Wollaston  Beach."  The  DCR 
insignia  and  a  leafy  symbol 
are  engraved  twice,  once  on 
each  side  of  the  wall. 

Beyond  the  wall,  the 
tercentenary  sign  describes 
the  nearby  historic  area,  the 
Moswetuset  Hummocks.  A 
tiny  park  with  pine  trees  and 
new  plantings  offers  visitors 
benches  and  a  magnificent 
view  of  the  ocean,  Squantum 
Point,  and  the  Weymouth 
shoreline  across  the  bay. 

But  if  visitors  look  up, 
they'll  alsoglimpse  the  DCR 
snafu  on  the  flagpoles. 

DCR  spokeswoman 
Wendy  Fox  said  the  agency 
will  consider  the  lighting  of 
the  flags  at  the  site,  "We  are 
looking  at  whether  to  take 
them  down  at  night  or 
illuminate  them." 

However,  she  had  no 
additional  information  on 
correcting  the  heights  of  the 


flagpoles. 

Senator  Michael 

Morrissey  said  Tuesday  that 
his  office  did  ask  the  DCR  in 
September  to  address  the 
issue,  "Ideally,  I'd  like  to  see 
the  DCR  change  over  the 
poles.  We've  asked  them  to 
consider  changing  the  way 
that  it's  mounted." 

"There  are  additional 
configurations."  said 
Morrissey,  noting  that 
placing  the  American  flag  in 
different  positions  can  be 
correct  protocol.  However, 
he  added  that  most  people 
prefer  the  traditional 
observance  with  the  Stars  and 
Stripes  placed  in  the  center 
on  the  highest  pole. 

"We've  a.sked  the  DCR  to 
raise  the  center  pole." 
Morrissey  said. 

"I'm  not  a  flag-waver,  but 
this  is  public  property.  These 
are  public  officials;  they 


should  know  better,"  said 
Fisher,  "The  flagpoles  are 
ordered  wrong." 

As  for  respect  for  the  flag, 
Fisher  said,  "We  were  drilled 
when  we  were  kids.  They 
don't  teach  it  today." 

Fisher  offered  pictures  of 
three  flags  flying  correctly  at 
the  Boston  Scientific 
building  not  far  from  the 
Wollaston  Beach  location. 

"This  is  done  right  by  a 
commercial  organization,  not 
the  state.  They  did  a  beautiful 
job,"  said  Fisher  of  the  private 
company. 

A  lifelong  resident,  Fisher 
served  in  Japan  with  the 
Army  in  World  War  II.  To 
date,  he  has  also  contacted 
Congressman  William 
Delahunt's  office,  and  other 
state  and  local  officials  for 
support. 

He  said  he's  not  giving  up 
on  his  project.

Prepping  Your 

Home's  Heating 

System 

Q,  Last  year,  you  pub- 
.  lished  a  list  of  steps 
to  ready  a  home  heating 
system  for  the  winter.  Can 
you  print  that  list  again? 
—  Norma  S.,  Birmingham, 
Ala. 

A,  Sure.  A  little  mainte- 
•  nance  ol  your  home 
healing  system  goes  a  long 
way  HI  tenns  of  efficiency 
and  the  hlespan  of  the  unit, 
so  taking  these  few  steps  at 
the  beginning  o(  the  heating 
season  will  save  you  money 
in  the  long  run. 

Forced-air  systems  gener- 
ally run  on  oil  or  natural  gas, 
though  some  are  all-electric. 
They  work  by  heating  air  in 
a  furnace  chamber  and  then 
distributing  it  throughout  the 
house  via  a  blower  or  fan 
and  an  air-duct  system. 
Maintaining  this  kind  of  sys- 
tem is  as  simple  as  keeping 
certain  parts  dust  and  debris- 
free,  .'^t  the  .start  of  the  sea- 
son, do  the  following: 

•  Clean  the  blower/fan  by 
turning  the  unit  off  com- 
pletely, opening  the  fan 
compartment  (through  an 
access  door,  or  by  removing 
the  nearest  furnace  panel) 
and  cleaning  the  fan  blades 
with  a  bottle  brush.  Vacuum 
the  compartment  if  possible. 

•  Inspect  the  fan  belt  on  the 


blower  motor,  if  the  unit  has 
one.  Replace  a  worn  belt.  If 
the  belt  gives  more  than  1/3 
inch  when  pressed,  lighten 
or  loo.sen  the  boll  to  increase 
tension. 

•  l.ubricule  the  blower 
motor,  unless  the  unit  is  self- 
lubricating.  Non-self-lubri- 
cating  motors  have  oil  ports 
at  one  or  both  ends;  squirt 
four  to  six  drops  of  SAE 
lOWlOoil  into  the  ports. 

•  Inspect  all  visible  air 
duels,  checking  for  visible 
damage  and  loose  connec- 
tions. Patch  or  replace  dam- 
aged sections. 

•  Remove  the  gnll  covers 
from  air  registers  and  vacu- 
um the  interior  to  remove 
household  dust. 

•  Most  importantly,  change 
the  air  filler.  Tiis  should  be 
done  every  month  during  the 
season  to  minimi/e  dust  and 
allergens  entering  your 
home's  living  spaces. 

In  addition  to  this  seasonal 
maintenance,  a  system 
check  by  a  professional  ser- 
vice should  be  done  about 
every  two  years,  or  annually 
if  you  cannot  access  the 
blower  compartment.

How  To  Appeal  To  The  Buyer  !y  Market 


Getting  Your  Home  Ready  To  Sell 


As  wc  all  know,  "first  im- 
pressions are  lasting  impres- 
sions,*" but  this  tried  and 
proven  maxim  has  become 
essential  when  it  comes  to 
selling  a  home. 

It's  a  buyer's  maiket.  Ac- 
cording to  a  recent  release 
from  the  Massachusetts  As- 
sociation of  Roaltois,  a  de- 
tached single-family  home 
stayed  on  the  market  an  av- 
er.ige  o\  127  days  in  A\ugust 
2007  compared  to  an  aver- 
age o[  114  days  ni  August 
2006,  while  condt)s  stayed 
on  I  he  market  an  average  of 
124  days  compared  to  106 
days  in  August  2006. 

riial's  an  aveiage  of 
nearly  two  weeks  longer  to 
sell  a  home.  To  help  combat 
this  rising  time  on  the  inar- 
kei.  Realtors  are  increasing 
the  use  t>l  staging  to  help 
make  the  sale. 

In  a  buyer's  market  sell- 
eis  are  constantly  looking  for 
ways  to  make  their  homes 
stand  out  from  the  competi- 
tion and  make  that  great  first 
impression. 

"Staging"  is  preparing  a 
house  to  sell  by  highlighting 
its  best  features  and  maxi- 
nii/ing  the  impact  it  has  on 
potential  buyers.  According 
to  a  recent  study  from 
stagedhomes.com,  homes 


that  are  staged  before  being 
listed  were  t)n  the  market  for 
half  the  time  as  those  that 
were  not. 

"One  of  the  most  common 
places  you  may  see  staging 
IS  in  model  homes."  said 
Phyllis  Rudnick,  owner/bro- 
ker at  Century  2 1  Annex  Re- 
alty. "For  years,  devek>pers 
have  been  utilizing  fresh 
paint  and  neutral  decor  in 
model  homes  to  help  poten- 
tial customers  imagine  what 
their  home  would  look  like. 
We  are  now  incorporating 
that  technique  into  the  pre- 
sentation of  existing  homes." 

Cii\ing  a  home  that 
"model"  look  may  increase 
the  selling  price  or  even  de- 
crease the  amount  of  time  its 
spends  on  the  market. 

According  to  Jo 
Remillard,  staging  specialist 
and  owner  of  Jo  Remillard 
Interior  Design,  the  most  im- 
portant part  of  staging  a 
home  is  to  de-personalize  the 
space. 

"Taking  family  photos, 
religious  artifacts  or  knick- 
knacks  off  the  shelves  helps 
potential  buyers  envision 
their  belongings  in  the  space, 
thereby  making  the  home 
more  appealing.  In  today's 
market  a  home  has  to  be  in 
top  condition,  inside  and  out. 


in  order  to  sell.  Buyers  are 
looking  for  properties  that 
are  move-in  ready." 

Sellers  should  budget  one 
to  three  percent  of  the 
home's  value  towards  stag- 
ing it  to  sell,  Remillard  said. 
But,  the  reward  is  worth  the 
effort.  According  to 
stagedhoiTies.com,  a  staged 
home  can  sell  for  nearly 
seven  percent  more  than 
homes  that  are  not  staged. 

If  hiring  a  consultant  is  not 
in  the  budget,  there  are  many 
things  sellers  can  do  to  make 
their  homes  more  attractive 
to  buyers  in  addition  to  tak- 
ing down  photos  and  rear- 
ranging furniture. 

Small  changes  can  make 
a  big  difference: 

Clean  the  house  -  Make 
sure  your  house  is  vacu- 
umed, dusted  and  guest 
ready.  Little  things  like 
washing  your  windows  in- 
side and  out  can  make  a  big 
difference.  Clean  up  the  ex- 
terior of  your  home.  A  well 
kept  lawn  and  new  flowers 
can  help  increase  curbside 
appeal. 

Remove  the  clutter  -  De- 
personalizing your  space  is 
essential.  Remove  clutter 
from  countertops  and  book- 
shelves. Take  down  family 
photos. .  .and  those  refrigera- 


tor magnets! 
Give  rooms  a  fresh  look 

-  Update  rooms  with  a  fresh 
coat  of  paint;  neutral  colors 
are  best.  Also,  try  removing 
furniture  to  make  the  rooms 
appear  larger. 

"The  goal  is  to  grab  buy- 
ers' attention  as  soon  as  they 
walk  in  the  door  and  hold  on 
to  it  until  the  closing  papers 
have  been  signed,"  Rudnick 
said.  "One  of  the  best  ways 
to  make  your  home  unique 
is  to  employ  the  technique  of 
staging.  Our  goal  is  to

Free  Booklet  Helps  Do-It- Yourselfers 


(NAPS)  -  Whether  you 
are  a  suburban  soccer  mom 
or  an  on-the-go  urban 
professional,  making  your 
home  comfortable  and 
functional  is  a  top  priority. 
But  shuttling  kids  in  the 
minivan  or  making  mad 
dashes  to  appointments 
leaves  little  time  to  think 
about  decorating,  much  less 
take  on  a  do-it-yourself 
project. 

To  help,  experts  in  wood 
finishing  have  developed 
some  fun  and  easy-to-do 
furniture  projects  that  you  can 
complete  in  a  weekend  and 
put  them  in  a  booklet  called 
"Easy  Weekend  Projects." 

The  free,  1 0-page  bi)oklet 
opens  with  a  warm  welcome 
from  master  carpenter  Norm 
Abram  of  PBS  television's 
"The  New  Yankee 
Workshop"  fame.  It  then 
guides  do-it-yourselfers 
through  a  number  of  practical 
wood-finishing  projects  to 
add  a  personal  touch  to  any 
room. 


The  Nice  Accent  project 
shows  how  an  unfinished 
accent  table  can  take  on 
different  roles  once  stained 
in  sleek  ebony  or  a  traditional 
pecan  shade.  Combined  with 
other  pieces,  such  as  a  mirror 
or  bookshelf,  the  same  table 
will  fit  the  need  of  any  room. 

Style  Where  You  Sit  takes 
unique  flea  market  and  tag 
sale  chairs  and  turns  them 
into  colorful  accent  pieces 
with  a  .selection  of  custom- 
mixed  Water-Based  Wood 
Stain  choices.  Sleep  On  It 
shows  how  a  little  creativity 
can  render  stylish  under-the- 
bed  storage  solution  for  small 


living  spaces.  Good  To  Grow 
shows  how  a  timeworn 
dinning  table  turns  into  a 
multi-purpose  coffee  table 
for  an  active  family.  Easy- 
to-do  decorative  diamond 
patterns  embellish  the  wood 
tabletop,  while  pullout  leaves 
allow  the  table  to  expand  for 
a  range  of  activities  from 
quiet  reading  to  a  family 
board  game.

Tips  For  Parents  To  Reduce  Holiday  Stress  And  Enjoy  The  Season 


To  assist  parents  and 
families,  the  Massachusetts 
Children's  Trust  Fund  (CTF) 
and  its  parenting  website 
www.onetoughjob.org,  ex- 
tends these  important  tips  to 
help  ease  holiday  stress  and 
promote  a  more  enjoyable 
time  of  year 

•  Make  a  holiday  plan 
with  your  children. (Jather 
the  family  and  discuss  all  the 
upcoming  school,  church, 
comnuinily  and  other  holi- 
day activities. 

Talk  about  what  events 
mean  the  most  lo  each  fam- 
ily member  Schedule  in  the 
mo.st  important  and  cut  back 
on  the  ones  that  will  cause 
stress  in  terms  o\  money, 
time,  transportation  and  en- 
ergy. 

Let  your  kids  be  a  part  o\ 
the  process.  If  soriielhing  has 
to  be  missed,  they  are  more 
likely  It)  luuiersland  why. 

•  Relax  with  your  family. 
Set  aside  "family  lime."  lin- 
joy  the  season  in  a  simple 
way.  Cjo  for  a  walk  or  drive 
and  look  at  holiday  decora- 
tions. Read  a  holiday  classic 
or  watch  a  holiday  movie  to- 
gether. Spend  lime  making 
holiday  crafts  that  you  and 
your  children  will  all  have 
fun  creating. 

•  Learn  to  say  "no."  Set 


limits.  Say  "yes"  to  activities 
that  matter  but  decline  those 
that  put  you  over  the  top. 

Remember,  you  do  not 
have  to  attend  every  party, 
volunteer  at  every  function, 
and  buy  your  kids  every  toy 
they  want.  Do  what  is  impor- 
tant and  realistic  for  you  and 
your  family. 

•  Be  open  to  change.  Keep 
in  mind  that  life  requires 
flexibility.  Be  prepared  to 
change  plans  if  something 
comes  up.  Be  prepared  for 
something  new  that  may 
arise  and  that  your  family 
may  want  to  do. 

The  holiday  season  is 
about  making  memories  for 
you  and  your  children, 
whether  by  celebrating  a  tra- 
dition or  creating  a  new  one. 

•  (live  back  to  others.  In- 
clude in  your  family  plan  an 
activity  that  gives  back  to 
others  and  involves  your 
children. 

As  a  family,  donate  holi- 
day gifts,  visit  a  nursing 
home,  serve  meals  at  a  food 
bank,  or  join  an  event  spon- 
sored by  your  church,  com- 
munity center,  place  of  work, 
or  local  family  organization. 

•  Remember,  you're  not 
alone.  Being  a  parent  is 
tough.  When  you  feel  over- 
whelmed, it's  important  to

MAKING  THE  WHITE  IMPRESSION 

When  it  comes  to  know  -      variety  of  products  and  pro- 


ing  the  value  of  an  attractive 
smile,  men  are  certainly  no 
different  from  women.  In 
fact,  according  to  one  recent 
survey,  about  seven  out  of 
ten  men  indicated  that  white 
teeth  and  a  good  hair  style 
are  their  two  most  important 
facial  features.  According  to 
a  majority  of  the  men  sur- 
veyed, having  white  teeth 
was  a  critical  factor  when 
trying  to  make  a  great  im- 
pression on  a  client  or  a  po- 
tential employer.  This  is 
quite  understandable  in  light 
of  the  fact  that  eye  contact 
and  a  pleasing  smile  are 
probably  the  first  two  things 
we  notice  about  someone. 
Work  aside,  nearly  half  the 
men  surveyed  indicated  that 
white  teeth  are  a  deciding 
factor  for  a  second  date. 

Everybody  loves  a  bright 
white  smile,  and  there  are  a 


cedures  to  help  you  improve 
the  look  of  yours.  We  pride 
ourselves  on  exceptional  lis- 
tening skills  and  keeping 
your  best  interests  at  heart.

plied with,  treatment  that  you

survey  mentioned  above  said 
that  he  could  not  bring  him- 
self to  kiss  someone  with  yel- 
low teeth.

Stroke,  Osteoporosis  Screening  Here  Dec.  18 


Life  Line  Screening  will 
conduct  screenings  to  reduce 
the  risk  of  stroke  or  a  seri- 
ous bone  fracture  Tuesday, 
Dec.  18  at  the  River  Bay 
Club,  99  Bracken  St., 
Quincy. 

Appointments  will  begin 
at  9  a.m. 

A  stroke,  also  known  as  a 
"brain  attack,"  is  ranked  as 
the  third  leading  killer  in  the 
world,  and  the  leading  cause 
of  nursing  home  admissions. 

Stroke  often  occurs  with- 
out warning.  A  painless 
screening  can  help  identify 


problems  that  can  lead  to 
stroke  before  it  is  too  late. 

Screenings  are  fast,  pain- 
less and  low  cost.  The 
screenings  test  for  blocked 
carotid  arteries,  abdominal 
aortic  aneurysms,  and  hard- 
ening of  the  arteries  in  the 
legs. 

Bone  density  screening  is 
also  offered  to  access  the  risk 
of  osteoporosis. 

Screenings  are  important 
because  of  the  silent  and  of- 
ten debilitating  nature  of  the 
conditions.  The  majority  of 
strokes  are  causes  by  plaque 


build  up  in  the  carotid  arter- 
ies. 

The  abdominal  aorta  is 
the  largest  artery  in  the  body, 
and  a  weakness  in  the  walls 
of  the  artery  can  cause  a  bal- 
looning called  an  aneurysm, 
which  can  rupture.  A  rup- 
tured aneurysm  is  generally 
fatal. 

Peripheral  arterial  disease 
or  PAD  is  also  known  as 
"hardening  of  the  arteries." 
Sufferers  have  a  4-6  fold  in- 
creased risk  of  cardiovascu- 
lar disease. 

Risk  is  evaluated  through 


a  measurement  called  the 
"Ankle-Brachial  Index," 
which  is  obtained  by  reading 
the  systolic  pressure  in  the 
ankle  and  arm. 

All  four  screenings  take 
less  than  an  hour  to  com- 
plete. The  cost  for  all  four 
screenings  including  free  os- 
teoporosis screening  is  $  149. 

For  more  information  re- 
garding the  screening  or  to 
schedule  an  appointment,

North  Hosts  Bridgewater-Raynham  Friday 

High  Expectations  For 
Experienced  Red  Raiders 


By  SEAN  BRENNAN 

The  North  Quincy  Red 
Raider  boys'  baskelball  team 
tipped-off  their  ?()07-20{)8 
winter  season  Tuesday  night 
against  Barnstable  High 
School,  but  regardless  ot  the 
result  (the  Quimy  Sun  went 
to  press  before  the  game  was 
played),  this  year's  Red 
Raider  team  is  banking  on 
the  experience  gained  during 
last  year's  disappointmg  5- 
13  campaign. 

"The  experience  that  was 
gained  from  last  year  will  be 
invaluable  to  the  success  of 
the  team  going  forward  this 
season."  said  head  coach 
Kevin  Barrett.  "We  are 
bringing  a  lot  of  experience 
back  from  la.st  year's  squad 
and  the  players  who  have 
returned,  bring  with  them 
game  experience,  and  many 
of  them  contributed  big 
minutes  for  us,  and  that 
should  be  a  positive  this 
season." 

Banett's  team  may  have 
finished  with  a  .'^-13  record 
in  2006-2007.  and  may  ha\e 
graduated  leadership  in  the 
fomi  of  John  Hueilh.  Terrell 
Johnson  and  Matt  Edgeriy, 
but  the  2007-2008  team  does 
return  a  trifecta  o'i  senior 
captains  who  should  help  the 
Red  Raiders  get  back  into  the 
post-season  equation. 

The  tri-captains  this 
season  are  seniors  Dennis 
Martin,  Phuoc  Nguyen  and 
Matt  O'Neill. 

"All  three  of  these 
captains  contributed  to  the 


BOYS'  BASKETBALL 


team  last  year,"  added 
Barrett.  "1  am  expecting  all 
of  them  to  lead  us  this  season 
with  the  help  of  the  rest  of 
our  senior  class  and  the  added 
depth  of  our  bench." 

Along  with  Martin, 
Nguyen  and  O'Neill.  Barrett 
will  lean  heavily  on  the 
contributions  of  seniors 
Marcellus  Lee.  Alex 
Tragellis,  Sean  CliJTord, 
Zack  O'Hara,  Cheng  Zheng 
and  transfer  Jordan 
Thompson. 

"Marcellus  Lee  gives  us 
an  option  down  in  the  paint 
and  players  like  Clifford, 
Tragellis  and  O'Hara  allows 
us  to  either  play  a  quick,  up- 
tempo game  or  we  can  switch 
to  a  slower  paced  game  with 
our  bigs  getting  some  looks 
down  low. 

"A  player  like  Matt 
O'Neill  can  play  down  low 
in  the  paint  with  his  back  to 
the  basket,  or  he  can  step  out 
and  knock  down  a  1 5-footer. 
An  option  like  that  will  keep 
opposing  defenses  honest. 
With  Martin  and  Phuoc  we 
have  senior  leadership  in  the 
back  court  and  front  court." 

With  the  option  of  running 
a  transition  game  or  a  half- 
court  attack,  this  year's  Red 
Raider  team  will  have  more 
than  one  way  to  expose  its 
opponents'  weakness,  and 
this  is  something  that  Barrett 
sees  as  a  .strength. 

"Being  able  to  slow   it 


down  and  go  inside  to  Lee 
and  O'Neill  allows  us  to 
dictate  the  pace  of  each  game. 
But  with  the  returning  starters 
we  have  and  our  bench,  we 
can  also  get  "up-and-down' 
against  teams  that  may  not 
be  able  to  run  with  us." 

North  Quincy  may  have 
tinished  last  year  with  a  5- 1 3 
record,  but  as  Barrett  sees  it, 
last  year's  team  was  just  a 
few  plays  away  from 
victories  in  most  of  their 
losses,  and  he  feels  that  the 
lessons  learned  from  those 
tough  defeats  will  translate 
into  wins  this  winter. 

"We  lost  so  many  close 
games  last  year.  In  many  of 
those  losses,  we  compensated 
in  some  area  and  it  cost  us 
and  we  let  some  get  away. 
But  getting  back  to  the 
learned  game  experience  of 
many  of  these  players, 
hopefully  we  can  hurdle  those 
issues  and  '>tart  to  see  the 
light  and  tum  those  tough 
defeats  into  wins." 

After  playing  against 
Barnstable  High  School. 
North  Quincy  will  play  two 
straight  home  games. 

The  team  will  play  host  to 
Bridgewater-Raynhain  High 
School  this  Friday  night  at 
6:30  p.m.  (NQHS 
Gymnasium)  and  is 
scheduled  to  play  its  first 
Atlantic  Coast  League  game 
next  Tuesday  night  (6:30 
p.m.)  versus  Whitman- 
Hanson  Hiijh  School.

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Friday,  Nov.  30,  Detectives  Paul  Pieper  and  Cindy 
Walsh  were  conducting  "frequent  checks"  in  the  area  of 
1 23  Elm  St.  on  complaints  of  suspicious  people  and  mo- 
tor vehicles  believed  to  be  involved  in  drug  activity. 

At  approximately  2: 10  p.m.,  an  anonymous  call  came 
in  stating  a  white  male  was  sitting  in  a  blue  vehicle  in- 
side the  adjacent  parking  garage.  The  detectives  ap- 
proached the  vehicle  and 
noticed  in  plain  view  $60 
folded  and  lying  on  the 
dashboard. 

Officer  Mike  Duran  ar- 
rived on  scene  and  checked 
the  suspect  for  warrants  to 
no  avail.  The  suspect  denied 
being  involved  in  any  drug 
transaction,  so  his  informa- 
tion was  taken  for  police 
files  and  he  was  sent  on  his 
way. 

The  detectives  then  con- 
tinued driving  through  the  parking  garage  in  their  un- 
marked cruiser  and  came  upon  a  male  leaning  into  an 
open  driver's  side  window  of  a  pick-up  truck,  which  was 
occupied  by  a  male  sitting  behind  the  wheel.  When  the 
suspect  (#1 )  outside  the  truck  saw  the  detectives,  he  pulled 
his  hand  out  of  the  truck  and  started  to  run. 

Detective  Walsh  gave  chase.  The  driver  (suspect  #2) 
of  the  truck  began  backing  up  but  couldn't  get  by  the 
cruiser.  Detective  Pieper  called  for  assistance,  and  then 
instructed  the  subject  to  step  out. 

Alter  conducting  a  pat-lrisk.  Detective  Pieper  fell  a 
hard  nieiai  object  in  the  suspect's  front  pocket.  He  slowly 
put  his  liand  inside  the  pocket  and  pulled  i>ut  a  niotal 
spon  with  residue,  believed  to  be  heroin,  then  removed  a 
hypodermic  syringe  from  the  pocket. 

Detective  Pieper  radioed  Detect!\  e  Walsh  ti>  w  am  her 
about  the  dangerous  needles,  which  could  be  used  as  a 
weapon.  Meanwhile.  Detecti\e  Walsh  chased  the  suspect 
(Mito  Baxter  Street,  through  iron  steps,  cnei  a  wDoden 
fence  and  into  a  backyard,  where  she  placed  hini  in  cus- 
tody. 

A  quick  search  of  the  suspect  produced  a  syringe  and 
a  small-knotted  bag  containing  a  substance  appearing  to 
be  heroin.  Both  suspects  were  placed  under  arrest.  Sus- 
pect #1 ,  a  20-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was  charged  with 
possession  of  class  A  drug  with  the  intent  to  distribute 
and  conspiracy  to  violate  drug  laws.  Suspect  #2,  a  29- 
year-old  Weymouth  resident,  was  charged  with  posses- 
sion of  a  class  A  (heroin  residue  on  spoon)  and  conspiracy 
to  violate  drug  laws." 

Nice  Work!

SAME  SCAM  -  DIFFERENT  VICTIM:  Officer 
Paul  Jackson  recently  investigated  a  case  where  the  vic- 
tim was  scammed  out  of  $4,(X)0.  The  victim  told  the  of- 
ficer that  she  is  a  model  and  had  a  posting  for  employ- 
ment on  the  Internet. 

She  said  she  received  a  call  from  a  person  claiming  he 
wanted  to  use  her  in  a  photo  shoot.  He  said  he  would 
send  her  a  check  for  $3,000  as  a  down  payment.  A  few 
days  later  a  check  arrived  for  $7,(XX)  with  instructions 
for  her  to  deposit  it  in  her  account. 

The  next  day,  the  victim  received  a  call  instructing 
her  to  send  the  extra  $4,(XX)  back  to  him  so  that  he  could 
pay  for  the  studio  and  photographer.  The  victim  sent  the 
West  Union  money  order  to  the  address  given  -  in  Nige- 
ria! 

The  victim  is  out  $4,000. 

To  prevent  being  victimized  by  this  increasingly  used 
scam,  heed  the  warning  of  your  bank  and  wait  for  the 
check  to  clear. 

By  wary  of  anyone  sending  you  a  check  worth  more 
than  what  was  agreed  upon  and  lastly,  be  very  cautious 
of  sending  money  out  of  the  country,  especially  Nigeria 
and  Canada.

W.  Somerset  Maugham  wrote:  "For 
the  average  man  a  sufficient  role  of  life 
is  to  follow  his  instincts  controlled  by 
the  moral  standard  of  the  society  in 
which  he  lives." 

Have  you  ever  been  caught  in  a  hor- 
rible storm  while  driving  a  car?  .  .  . 
When  your  windshield  wiper  could 
hardly  clear  your  window  to  give  you  a  clear  view  of  the  road? 
Were  not  the  yellow  and  white  lines  on  the  road  helpful  to  you? 
Without  them  you  probably  would  not  have  been  able  to 
continue  driving.  They  protected  you  from  going  into  the 
ditch. 

Let's  think  about  these  questions  in  regard  to  our  day-by- 
day  living. . .  Safety  lines  have  been  given  to  us.  The  lines  are 
safety  guides  and  common  sen.se  should  tell  us  how  important 
they  are . . .  Yet,  some  people  continually  ignore  them. . . 

The  basic  guides  are  in  the  Bible  such  as  the  Beatitudes,  the 
Lord's  Prayer  and,  of  course,  the  all  important  Ten  Com- 
mandments. Is  it  not  true  that  if  we  follow  these  white  lines 
carefully,  we  would  avoid  the  many  'ditches'  of  difTiculty  in 
our  daily  living?  . . .

It's  called  the  most  won- 
derful time  of  the  year,  a  time 
for  parties,  and  laughter  and 
fun. 

But  what  do  you  do  when 
your  heart  is  breaking,  and 
the  very  idea  of  a  party  is 
painful? 

"For  some  people,  the 
holiday  season  can  be  very 
stressful  and,  sometimes, 
very  unhappy,"  said  the  Rev. 
Dr.  Susan  F.  Jarek-Glidden, 
pastor  of  Qumcy  Commu- 
nity United  Methodist 
Church. 

"Facing  the  first  Christ- 
mas without  a  loved  one's 
physical  presence,  dealing 


with  an  imminent  death,  liv- 
ing with  an  illness  that  places 
a  question  mark  over  the  fu- 
ture, coping  with  the  loss  of 
a  job,  facing  hfe  after  a  di- 
vorce or  separation,  and 
sometimes  just  like  in  gen- 
eral can  make  holiday  cel- 
ebration very  difficult,  if  not 
impossible,"  Jarek-Glidden 
said. 

Quincy  Community 
United  Methodist  Church,  40 
Beale  St.,  Wollaston,  is  pro- 
viding a  resource  for  people 
in  these  difficult  situations. 

On  Friday,  Dec.  21  at  7:30 
p.m.,  the  church  will  hold  its 
annual  Service  of  the  Long- 


est Night.  The  service  will  be 
held  in  the  chapel. 

The  service  gets  its  name 
from  the  Winter  Solstice,  the 
Longest  Night  of  the  year.  It 
is  very  simple  and  gentle, 
consisting  of  music.  Scrip- 
ture lessons,  readings, 
prayer,  and  quiet  reflection. 
Its  purpose  is  to  provide  a 
safe  place  for  people  who  are 
dealing  with  grief  and  loss  of 
any  kind,  whether  that  grief 
and  loss  are  recent  or  de- 
cades old. 

Everyone  is  invited  to  at- 
tend.

The  modem  Jewish  world 
is  populated  more  and  more 
by  inter-married  couples 
who  seek  a  religious  commu- 
nity and  identity  that  respects 
their  personal  integrity  and 
unique  family  background. 
Recent  studies  have  shown 
that  upon  the  birth  of  a  child, 
many  of  these  young  parents 
choose  Judaism  as  their 
spiritual  path. 

Temple  Shalom,  an  inde- 
pendent congregation,  em- 
braces these  families,  seeing 


itself  as  partner  and  resource 
in  their  quest  to  express  the 
joy  and  traditions  of  Judaism 
in  meaningful  ways. 

The  December  holiday 
season  can  bring  challenges 
when  it  comes  to  balancing 
family  loyalties  and  answer- 
ing children's  questions. 
Moderated  by  Rabbi  Fred 
Benjamin,  a  panel  of  inter- 
married Temple  members 
will  discuss  how  they  "Navi- 
gate the  Chanukah-Christ- 
mas Dynamic"  along  with 
other  relevant  issues.  A  ques- 
tion and  answer  session  will 
follow. 

Temple  Shalom  is  located 
at  180  Blue  Hill  Ave.  (Rte. 
138)  in  Milton.  Parking  is 
available.

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

19)  Start  prepanng  now  to 
make  .sure  you  get  the  credit 
you're  due  for  all  that  effort 
you  put  in  to  get  that  project 
off  the  ground.  A  new  chal- 
lenge emerges  after  the  1 5th. 

TAL'RUS'(  April  20  to  May 
20 j  You're  still  charging  full 
.steam  ahead  on  the  job  — 
and  that's  fine.  But  take  time 
to  share  the  joy  of  preparing 
for  the  upcoming  holidays 
with  folks  vou  love. 

GEMINI  (May  21  to  June 
20)  A  former  detractor  resists 
joining  your  ranks  just  yet. 
Give  him  or  her  time  to  learn 
more  about  what  you're 
doing.  Meanwhile,  devote 
more  time  to  friends  and  fam- 
ily. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  Be  careful  not  to  be  goad- 
ed into  a  tiff  by  someone  who 
might  be  looking  for  a  fight. 
Remain  cool  as  you  make 
your  exit.  Be  assured  that 
others  will  rally  to  your  sup- 
port.

Kudos  on  getting  the  well- 
deserved  Lion's  share  of  the 
rewards  for  a  job  well-done. 
Now  you  can  take  a  breather 
from  your  workaday  duties 
and  spend  time  with  your 
family. 

VIRGO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  You  enjoy  a  quick 
spurt  of  renewed  energy  just 
in  time  to  meet  that  upcom- 
ing deadline.  A  potentially 
romantic  situation  looms. 
How  it  develops  will  be  up  to 
you. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Watch  out  for 
distractions  that  could  cause 
delays  and  leave  you  running 
twice  as  fast  to  finish  your 
work  by  the  15th.  Then  go 
ahead  and  have  fun. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  You  might 
prefer  to  work  on  current 
tasks  on  your  own.  But  be 
open  to  a  potentially  useful 
suggestion  from  someone 
who  admires  you  and  wants 
to  help. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21) 
Avoid  rushing  full  gallop  into 
that  volunteer  project  with- 
out knowing  what's  expected 
of  you.  Take  things  a  step  at  a 
time  as  you  begin  to  find  your 
way. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  Good 
news:  You  should  begin  to 
feel  more,  comfortable 
expressing  your  emotions. 
This  will  go  a  long  way  in 
helping  you  with  that  person- 
al situation. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  An  old  friend 
gives  confusing  signals.  Best 
advice:  Don't  assume  that 
things  will  necessarily  work 
themselves  out.  Ask  ques- 
tions and  demand  straight 
answers. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  A  new  relation- 
ship needs  time  to  develop. 
Be  careful  not  to  let  your 
emotions  flood  your  natural 
sense  of  caution.  Meanwhile, 
check  out  that  new  job  offer. 
BORN  THIS  WEEK: 
Your  sense  of  right  and 
wrong  sometimes  causes  you 
to  come  into  conflict  with 
others.  But  you  invariably 
come  out  ahead.

Quincy  High  Competes  In 
Third  Academic  Decathlon 


I IIK  20(>7-2(K)K  Oiiincv  lliuh  School  U.S.  Academic  Decathlon  leam.  From  left:  Coach  Mrs. 
Kvelyn  Kvaii,  /arin  Arshv.  IVlrika  (■jini,  Xiao  Ting  /heng,  Chaoran  Chen,  Daiyi  Situ  and 
captain  Amanda  Narraso. 

Volunteers  Needed  At 
Beechwood  Senior  Center 


Quincy  High  School  was 
among  the  25  schools  that 
recently  participated  in  the 
Massachusetts  large-school 
regional  scrimmage  in 
preparation  tor  the  2008 
United  States  Academic  De- 
cathlon. 

The  competition  was  held 
at  St.  John's  High  School  in 
Shrewsbury. 

Local,  regional  and  state 
competitions  can  lead  to  the 
national  finals  which  this 
academic  year  will  take 
place  in  Miami,  Florida  in 
April. 

"Our  team  showed  great 
improvement  this  year,"  said 
Coach  Evelyn  Ryan.  "Our 
standings  were  higher  and 
the  team  worked  very  hard. 
With  one  more  round  of 
competition,  we  have  an  ex- 


cellent chance  of  making  it 
to  States." 

The  U.S.  Academic  De- 
cathlon was  created  to  pro- 
vide opportunities  for  stu- 
dents to  experience  the  chal- 
lenges of  rigorous  team  and 
individual  competition. 

Each  team  competes  in 
ten  events — economics,  lan- 
guage and  literature,  art, 
music,  mathematics,  social 
science,  science,  essay,  inter- 
view, and  speech.  Each  year 
the  science  or  social  science 
is  used  as  the  Super  Quiz 
topic. 

A  new  theme  of  study  is 
established  every  year  with 
topics  that  are  relevant,  cur- 
rent and  challenging.  This 
year's  science  focus  is  infec- 
tious diseases.  The  social 


studies  topic  is  the  American 
Civil  War.  "The  students 
gain  a  remarkable  amount  of 
knowledge  in  their  daily 
preparation  for  competition. 
There's  really  no  way  to  lose 
taking  part  in  an  event  like 
this."  Ryan  said. 

Ribbons  as  well  as  gold, 
silver  and  hron/e  medals  are 
awarded  for  individual 
events  and  total  scores. 
Overall  individual  winners 
are  recognized,  as  are  cham- 
pion teams. 

"On  our  team  this  year, 
the  Coach's  gold  medal  goes 
to  Amanda  Varraso,  team 
captain,"  Ryan  said.  "She 
earned  the  team  a  Blue  Rib- 
bon in  Art — our  first  award. 
I  have  no  doubt  her  leader- 
ship will  take  the  team  to 
States."

City  councillors  Monday 
blasted  the  city's  response  to 
Sunday '  s  snow  and  ice  storm, 
which  left  blocked  hydrants, 
treacherous  sidewalks, 
impassable  streets,  and  angry 
residents  in  its  wake,  and 
especially  dangerous 
situations  for  children  and 
pedestrians. 

Department  of  Public 
Works  employees  logged 
about  500  calls  Sunday; 
another  50  residents  called 
City  Hall  and  fourcouncillors 
reported  40  to  50  calls  that 
day. 

As  a  result,  the  Council 
passed  a  resolution  aimed  at 
clarifying  Department  of 
Works  procedures, 

establishing  performance 
standards  for  private 
contractors,  and  enforcing 
overnight  parking 

restrictions. 

Councillors  indicated  that 
response  to  the  first  storm  of 
eight  to  10  inches  of  light 
snow  last  Thursday  was 
adequate  but  there  was  an 
abysmal  response  to 
Sunday's  snow  and  ice

Roughly  1 1  inches  of 
snow  fell  on  the  city  with  the

two  storms. 

Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  who  reported 
at  least  40  calls  described 
irate  parents  whose  children 
had  to  walk  to  school  on  city 
streets  because  the  sidewalks 
weren't  cleared. 

"The  sidewalks  are  what 
bother  me."  said  Ward  1 
Councillor  Leo  Kelly  who 
described  impassable 
sidewalks  at  three  elementary 
schools  in  his  district.  "Those 
kids  don't  belong  out  on  the 
street. 

Snow  and  ice  blocked 
access  to  main  roads  and 
Wollaston  Station,  said 
Gutro,  adding  "1  can't 
remember  this  number  of 
calls," 

Gutro  said  that  neither  the 
city  nor  private  contractors 
appeared  to  have  a  proper 
plan,  describing  clearing  as  a 
"patchwork  with  no  rhyme 
or  reason." 

Contractors  were  ill 
prepared  with  their 
equipment,  according  to 
Gutro  who  described  some 
plows  as  "too  light  to  deal 
with  it  (the  ice  and  snow)." 

Ward  3  Councillor  Kevin 
Coughlin  waved  three  pages 
listing  streets  that  were 
blocked  or  neglected  during 
the  city's  plowing  Sunday 
and  still  not  up  to  par  by 
Monday. 

However,  Coughlin  cited 
one  hero  of  the  day  in 
Department  of  Public  Works 
(DPW)  employee  Rachel 
Picard  who  answered  many 
of  the  500  calls  to  the  DPW. 

"1  talked  to  her  so  many 
times,"  Coughlin  said  that 


Picard  finally  said  she'd  run 
the  plow  the  on  a  street 
reported  as  dangerous  by 
Coughlin. 

"And  she  did,"  said 
Coughlin. 

Coughlin  said  that  a  major 
issue  is  that  with  cars  parked 
on  both  sides  of  the  street, 
fire  trucks  and  ambulances 
could  not  access  many 
streets. 

Coughlin  said  that  the 
police  "don't  enforce 
overnight  parking  rules  in  the 
city  anymore." 

"1  was  nabbergasted,"  said 
Ward  4  Councillor  Jay  Davis 
who  reported  4.5  calls  Sunday 
and  called  for  a  council 
hearing  on  snow  clearing 
procedures.  He  also 
commended  Picard. 

"We  need  to  have  the 
DPW  committee  hold  a 
public  hearing,"  said  Davis, 
adding  there  should  be  a  clear 
chain  of  command,  "People 
should  not  have  to  call  their 
city  councillor." 

"I  had  as  many  phone  calls 
as  everybody  else,"  said 
Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  who  described, 
"kids  walking  on  roadways 
that  were  extremely  narrow. 

Councillors  met  with 
Acting  DPW  Director  Brian 
Carlisle  who  was  out  of  town 
during  Sunday's  storm. 
Mayor  William  Phelan 
appointed  Carlisle  to  the 
po.sition  on  Saturday. 

Councillors  welcomed 
Carlisle  who  will  cover  the 
DPW  for  Steve  O'Donnell, 
Director  of  the  DPW,  who 
submitted  his  resignation  last 
week.

Putting  Merry  In  Christmas 


Helping  Hands  Reach  Out  To  Needy  Families 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

The  early  snows  and  ice 
and  wind  whipping  through 
the  city  this  year  intensify 
the  heartbreak  facing  many 
famihes  and  individuals  that 
are  struggling  this  year  as 
Christmas  approaches. 

The  need  is  great,  as  great 
as  ever. 

"Middle  class  people  are 
really  getting  hit  from  all 
sides."  said  Major  Linda 
Jones,  co-commander  of  the 
Salvation  Army  Quincy 
Temple  Corps. 

"What's  different  is  we 
have  a  lot  of  new  people, 
people  who  never  applied  for 
any  kind  of  help  before,"  said 
Kathy  Quigley,  Director  at 
Germantown  Neighborhood 
Center,  of  the  Christmas  list. 
"People  are  falling  apart  at 
the  seams.  Can't  pay  their 
bills,  gas,  oil,  food.  It's  just 
too  much." 

The  numbers  of  those  in 
need  may  be  surging  at  social 
agencies  and  charitable 
groups,  this  year,  but,  so  too, 
are  the  many  helping  hands 
in  Quincy  aiming  to  ease  the 
burdens  and  provide  warmth 
andjoy  in  the  holiday  season. 

The  bells  are  ringing  for 
the  Salvation  Army  kettles, 
donors  are  dropping  dollars 
in  red  envelopes  and  mailing 
checks  to  the  St.  Vincent 
DePaul  Society  and  Father 
Bill's  Place. 

Volunteers  are  wrapping 
new  toys  and  packing  hams 
for  Jnterfaith  Social  Services 
and  members  of  the  Quincy 
Elks  and  Quincy  City  Club 
are  quietly  stepping  up  to  the 
challenge. 

Nothing  warms  the 
holidays  more  for  youngsters 
and  adults  than  being 
remembered  and  many 
recipients  call  or  write  back 
to  say,  "Thank  you." 


"I  get  beautiful  letters; 
they  make  you  cry."  said 
Quigley  who  described 
special  letters  that  said, 
"Angels  really  do  exist."  or 

"Nobody's  ever  been  so 
nice  to  me." 

Quigley  emphasized  that 
almost  all  city  social  service 
agencies  belong  to  the  five- 
year  old  Holiday  Coalition 
which  eliminates  the 
duplication  of  requests  for 
help.  All  recipients  sign  a 
paper  that  states,  "We  will 
share  your  name." 

As  a  result,  Quigley  said 
there  is  rarely  duplication  on 
any  list.  She  said  agencies 
care  deeply  that  donations 
are  properly  assigned  and 
help  different  people. 
Germantown 

Neighborhood  Center 

"We  have  a  citywidc 
program,"  said  Quigley  who 
reported  that  the  center  aided 
1 400  families  and  individuals 
last  year  and  is  expecting  at 
least  1 800  this  year. 

Referrals  come  from 
schools  and  other  agencies, 
according  to  Quigley  who 
said  that  gift  deliveries  keep 
going  up  "right  up  to 
Christmas  Eve." 


Households  receive  new 
clothing,  towels,  blankets, 
maybe  a  new  pillow  and 
kitchen  utensils,  said  Quigley 
who  recalled  that  one  woman 
simply  asked  for  a  "new 
broom  and  laundry  basket" 
for  Christmas. 

Quigley  begins 

fundraising  with  a  zero 
balance  on  the  first  day  of 
October  each  year.  The  first 
mailing  goes  to  about  700 
previous  donors  and 
corporations.  Private 
donations  fund  the  Christmas 
program. 

After  the  season.  Quigley 
mails  donors  copies  of  the 
special  letters  from  families 
and  children  who  have 
received  gifts  and  food,  toys 
and  clothes.  The  recipient's 
names  are  blacked  out. 

This  is  the  first  year  the 
Center  has  occupied  the  new 
building  opened  last  August 
at  366  Palmer  St., 
Germantown.

earthquake  of  an  estimated 
8.6  magnitude  on  the  Richter 
scale  slams  the  region.  The 
quake  raised  and  lowered 
parts  of  the  Mississippi  Val-

Ear. 

•  On  Dec.  22,  1939,  two 

express  trains  collide  in 
Magdeburg,  Germany, 

killing  132  people.  The  acci-

fact  that  the  country's  best 
rail  engineers  had  all  been 
conscripted  into  the  military. 


•  On  Dec.  20,  1957,  rock- 
and-roll  star  Elvis  Presley 
receives  his  draft  notice  for 
the  U.S.  Army.  Fans  sent  tens 
of  thousands  of  letters  asking 
for  him  to  be  sjjarcd,  but 
Elvis  would  have  none  of  it. 
He  was  sworn  in  as  an  Army 
private  in  Memphis  on 
March  24,  1958. 

•  On  Dec.  17,  1963,  the 

U.S.  Congress  passes  the 
Clean  Air  Act,  a  sweeping

Dear  Santa 


Dear  Santa: 
It's  me  again.  Late  again  as  usual. 

I  keep  promising  to  write  sooner  to  make  it  easier  for 
you  to  pack  your  sleigh.  No,  last  minute  stuff. 

I  really  tried  to  get  my  list  in  earlier  this  year.  There 
are  a  lot  of  nice  people  on  it. 

Some  of  the  gifts  I'm  a.sking  are  in  a  humorous  vein- 
some  in  a  serious  one.  I  would  really  appreciate  it  if  you 
could  squeeze  in  as  many  of  them  as  you  can. 

I  don't  want  to  be  a  pain,  Santa.  But  just  a  reminder: 
we  are  the  Quincy  that  pronounces  it  Quin-zee.  We're 
a  little  fussy  about  that.  Wouldn't  want  you  to  mix  us  up 
with  those  other  Quincys  that  think  it's  Quin-cee. 

But  you  probably  got  to  know  it's  pronounced  Quin- 
zee  years  ago  when  you  delivered  toys  to  little  Johnny 
Quincy  Adams. 

So,  Santa,  I  would  really  appreciate  it  if  you  could 
drop  the  following  off  to  the  following: 

Mayor  WILLIAM  PHELAN  and  Mayor  elect  TOM 
KOCH,  a  friendly  relationship.  You  know,  Santa,  I 
tried  to  get  the  outgoing  mayor  a  gold  mine  under  City 
Hall,  an  oil  well  near  Mclntyre  Mall  and  a  Megabucks 
jackpot  during  his  administration  to  keep  the  tax  rate 
down  and  for  emergencies.  Maybe  you  could  do  it  for 
the  incoming  mayor... And  speaking  of  them,  how 
about  getting  them  together  with  former  Mayors 
WALTER  HANNON,  JOE  LARIA,  ARTHUR 
TOBIN,  FRANK  MC  CAULEY  and  JIM  SHEETS 
for  a  group  photo.  Seven  living  mayors,  together  is  a 
photo  for  posterity ...  Happy  Landing  for  City  Hall's

And,  Santa,  SHARRON  BEALS  will  again  be 
keeping  a  vigil  this  Christmas  Eve  at  the  Beechwood 
Community  Center  hoping  to  catch  you  coming  down 
the  chimney.  As  I've  mentioned  before,  she  has  that 
copy  of  her  favorite  "Though  For  Christmas"  she  wants 
to  personally  give  to  you  to  take  back  to  Mrs.  Claus. 
She's  pretty  persistent,  Santa.  She'll  be  waiting  for  you. 

Her  "Thought  For  Christmas": 

"Do  you  know  what  would  have  happened  if  it  had 
been  the  Three  Wisewomen  instead  of  the  Three 
Wisemen?  They  would  have  asked  directions,  arrived 
on  time,  helped  deliver  the  baby,  cleaned  the  .stable  and 
made  a  casserole,  brought  practical  gifts  and  there 
would  be  "Peace  On  Earth." 

Well,  so  long  Santa.  I'm  sure  I've  forgotten  some 
people  including  good  friends.  But  to  all  of  them  and  all 
of  you.  Merry  Christmas,  Happy  Chanukah  and  a 
Happy,  Healthy  New  Year.

.JVIERRY    CHRISTMAS 
from  QUINCX  MASS 

Largest  Christinas  Tree  in  United  States. 
85  feet  high  contributed  by  Retail  Merchants. 


THIS  1934  POSTCARD  is  a  view  of  tlie  Christmas  tree 
erected  by  tiie  Retail  Merchants  Bureau  of  the  Quincy 
Chamber  of  Commerce.  It  was  in  front  of  the  Granite 
Trust  Banii  building,  now  home  to  a  branch  of  the  Bank 
of  America  at  1400  Hancock  St.  Two  weeks  before  this 
tree  was  lighted,  a  smaller  tree  was  dedicated  on  the 
same  spot,  but  it  was  toppled  by  a  gale.  MIT  engineers 
brought  in  to  prevent  a  recurrence  claimed  this  new 
85-foot  tree  could  withstand  winds  to  240  mph.  The  first 
60  feet  of  the  trunk,  set  firmly  into  the  ground,  was  the 
boom  from  a  derrick  donated  by  the  Swingle  Quarry 
Co.  It  was  capable  of  lifting  20  tons  of  granite.  On  top 
of  this  boom  was  attached  a  25-foot  real  tree.  Three 
hundred  and  twenty  smaller  trees  salvaged  from  the 


first  disaster  were  inserted  nito  holes  drilled  into  the 
boom  to  serve  as  the  lower  branches.  Six  nearly  one- 
inch  thick  cables  secured  the  tree  from  all  sides,  and 
some  600  lights  accompanied  a  large  and  small  star  that 
flashed  alternately  at  the  top.  On  the  (Kcasion  of  the 
tree  lighting,  a  spectacular  scintillator  on  top  of  the  bank 
building  threw  a  great  fan  of  light  in  all  colors  more 
than  a  mile  into  the  sky.  Howard  Johnson's  Restaurant 
was  the  store  on  the  left  at  One  Chestnut  St.  On  the 
right  was  Homer's  Jewelry  Store,  now  Rogers  Jewelry 
at  1402  Hancock  St.  This  postcard  has  become  a  tradi- 
tion for  Sun  readers  and  is  appearing  for  the  13th  year.

At  Eastern  Nazurene  College 

Opera  Transforms  Anti-Semitic 
Tale  Into  Plea  For  Tolerance 


Quincy  composer  Delvyn 
Case's  "The  Prioress's  Tale," 
which  will  make  its  world 
premiere  Thursday.  Jan.  17. 
at  Masteni  Na/arene  College, 
is  an  opera  with  a  twist. 

It  takes  one  of  Chaucer's 
■'Canterbury  Tales,  "  the  one 
with  decidedly  anti-Semitic 
overtones,  and  converts  it 
into  a  musical  plea  tor  reli- 
gious tolerance. 

The  result  is  a  one-act 
chamber  opera  which  will  be 
performed  at  7  p.m.  in  the 
Cover  Fine  Arts  Center  at  the 
college.  .\  panel  discussion 
of  Christian  and  Jewish 
clergy  will  follow. 

The  performance  is  di- 
rected b\  Andrew  Ryker  and 
features  three  of  Boston's 
best  young  opera  singers. 


Admission  is  $10  for  adults 
and  $5  for  seni(^rs,  vStudents 
of  all  ages  are  admitted  free. 

Case,  an  assistant  profes- 
sor of  music  at  ENC,  reached 
out  to  the  South  Shore's  Jew- 
ish community  for  input  on 
the  best  way  to  turn 
Chaucer's  tale  into  a  plea  for 
cultural  understanding. 

"As  a  Christian,  I'm  sad- 
dened by  the  long  history  of 
intolerance  that  has  been 
manifested  by  sc^me  Chris- 
tians, and  the  deep  rifts  be- 
tween Christians  and  Jews 
that  still  exist  due  to  this  de- 
plorable past,"  he  said. 

"1  felt  that,  as  a  composer, 
1  could  contribute  positively 
to  our  public  dialogue  about 
these  issues." 

Working  with  librettist 


Christopher  Hood,  Case  re- 
cast Chaucer's  original  story 
of  violence  perpetrated 
against  Christians  by  a  Jew- 
ish man  into  a  one-act  opera 
focused  on  forgiveness,  re- 
demption and  reconciliation. 

"Our  story  is  a  tragic  par- 
able in  which  the  reality  of 
violence  serves  as  an  overall 
message  about  the  power  of 
forgiveness  and  peace,"  said 
Case. 

"We  hope  our  opera  com- 
municates a  deep  respect  lor 
\  ictims  of  religious  violence 
while  al.so  dramatically  illus- 
trating the  terrible  conse- 
quences of  bigotry  and  ha- 
tred."

Stuffing  For  Roast  Or  Ham 


Every  holiday  I  try  to  think  of  a  different 
kind  of  roast  to  serve,  and  sometimes  I  end  up 
by  cooking  two  entrees  to  satisfy  so  many 
family  members. 

This  year,  in  addition  to  making  a  roast 
stuffed  pork,  1  am  also  planning  a  ham  with 
a  different  way  t)r  stuffing  it.. 

Oyster  or  Chestnut  Stutted  Pork 

1  can  of  oysters  (fresh  if  you  can  jjet 
them  prepared) 

or  1/2  pound  of  boiled  chestnuts 
4  shces  of  bread  (cut  in  cubes) 

2  tablespoons  fresh  parsley  (chopped) 

1  small  onion  (chopped) 

2  stalks  chopped  celery

1/4  cup  Hhite  wine  (optional) 
salt  and  pepper  to  taste 

2  tablespoons  oil  and  1  tablesp<H>n  but- 
ter or  margarine  for  sautein}>. 

If  yi>u  use  the  chestnuts,  slit  each  one 
hefbro  boiling  them.  Test  il  they  are  tender 
enough  to  cut  and  put  ni  the  stulling. 

Saute  the  onion  anil  celery.  Add  the  oys- 
ters (or  chestnuts),  the  chicken  stock,  the 
wine  and  parsley.  Then  add  the  bread  and 
blend  well,  then  add  the  bread  crumbs.  It 
should  be  dry  enough  to  stuff  the  meat, 
otherwise,  add  a  bit  more  crumbs  or  a  smid- 
gen of  water  or  stock  if  too  liquidy. 

Slit  the  top  part  of  the  roast  and  place  the 


stuffing.  If  need  be,  1  cover  the  stuffing  with 
some  aluminum  foil.  Bake  in  a  350  degree 
oven  for  20  minutes  to  the  pound.  If  you  use 
a  thermometer,  follow  those  directions. 

I  have  also  u.sed  this  stuffing  for  lamb, 
veal  and  turkey.  And  if  you  use  pork  tender- 
loin, just  cut  in  half  but  not  clear  to  the  bottom 
and  lie. 

StulTed  Baked  Ham 

a  5-7  pound  ham  (or  any  si/e  preferred) 

1  medium  sized  onion 

1  stalk  of  chopped  celery 

1  cup  of  apple  juice 

1/2  cup  of  pineapple  juice 
l/'2  cup  honey 

2  tablespoons  dijon  mustard 
1/2  teaspoon  clo\es  (optional) 

2  tablespoons  olive  oil  and  1  tablespoon 
butter  or  niarKarine 

Saute  the  onion  and  celery  in  the  hot  oil 
and  butter.  Add  the  dijon  mustard  and  stir 
until  blended.  Then  add  the  apple  and  pine- 
apple juice  and  honey.  C\>ok  uncovered  until 
reduced.  Set  aside. 

Slit  the  ham  about  every  2  inches  or  so. 
Bake  in  a  325  degree  oven  uncovered  for 
about  40  minutes  depending  on  the  size  of  the 
ham.  Remove  from  oven  which  by  now  the 
slits  have  opened  enough  to  place  the  mix- 
ture into  each  slit  as  well  as  the  top.  Return  to 
the  oven  and  bake  until  done.  It  will  be  brown 
on  top  and  so  moist..  Merry  Christmas!

Helping  Hands  Reach  Out  To  Needy  Families 


{i'ont'd  I  lom  Pai^c  J) 
Moslol  the  Army's  funds 
are  raised  ihrouyh  llie  kettle 
drive,  (iilts  are  also  donated 
and,  just  recently,  parents 
picked  out  special  items  lor 
their  children  at  Quincy 
Salvation  Army,  6  Baxter  St. 
In  addition  to  toys  and 
gift  cards,  the  Salvation 
Army  is  distributing  mittens, 
hats,  scarves  and  afghans 
knitted  and  donated  by 
Weymouth's  Naughty 
Knitters. 

IJke  most  of  the  agencies, 
the  Sah  ation  Army  answers 
needs  year  round.  At  this 
time,  over  100  families  a 
month  \  isit  the  food  pantry. 
That  number  is  also 
increasing,  according  to 
Major  Jones. 

Volunteers  and  donors 
may  contact  the  agency  at 
617-472-2345. 

Quincy  Crisis  Center 
Kathi  Garrison  of  the 
Quincy  Crisis  Center  said  her 
agency  has  been  providing 
holiday  help  for  26  years. 
Baskets  are  filled  with  food 
and  hi>usehi)ld  items  for 
families  and  gifts  for 
youngsters  up  to  the  age  of 
16  years  old. 

"We  do  need   i;ifts   for 


older  children,"  (iarrison 
said,  adding  that  donations 
can  be  dropped  off  a!  2S2 
Billings  Kd,  Noitfi  Quincy. 

Like  most  other  agencies, 
the  center  reports  increased 
numbers  this  year. 

"We  did  hit  a  record  for 
Thanksgiving.  We've  never 
hit  that  high  a  number,"  said 
Ciarrison. 

'We  alreaily  e.xpect  to 
e.xceeilthat  number  now.  The 
numbers  are  high  because  of 
the  economic  situation,  high 
ct)st  of  food  and  gas  and  oil." 

"The  need  is  greater.  That 
means  that  our  needs  are 
greater,"  said  (Jarrison, 
referring  to  increased 
expenditures. 

Interested  volunteers  can 
call  the  center  at  617-847- 
6967.  Donations  may  be 
mailed  to  Quincy  Crisis 
Center,  P.O.  Box  .^  1 ,  Quincy,

Interfaith  Social  Services 

Volunteers,  known  as 
Santa's  Helpers  participate 
in  the  agency's  16-year-old 
Adopt  A  F^amily  Program 
through  Interfaith  Social 
Services,  according  to  Betty 
Ann  Lang,  the  agency's 
Manager  of  Material 
Assistance. 


Santa's  Helpers  tell  Lang 
what  si/c  family  the\  can 
help.  Then,  Lang  and  her  stall 
match  the  helper  with  a 
family.  To  date,  the  agency 
has  a  list  of  1 55  families  this 
season. 

"That's  about  .V5() 
youngsters,"  said  Lang  who 
said  that  sometimes  the 
families  meet.  Sometimes, 
they  remain  anonymous. 
"Lverybody  is  just  so 
grateful." 

Lang  described  one 
mother  of  a  boy  and  a  girl, 
five  and  seven  years  old,  who 
said  she'd  lost  her  job  last 
fall  and  planned  to  give  her 
children  crocheted  mittens. 
That  was  all  she  had. 

"Now,  she'll  have 
something  under  the  tree," 
said  Lang  who  noted  that  the 
agency  pantry  is  open  every 
day.  At  Christmas,  "We 
provide  extra  food." 

Interfaith  Social  Services

Quincy.    The    telephone 
number  is  617-773-6203.

\  a/winski  said  church 
parishioners,  companies  antl 
individuals  arc  always 
helping  with  holiday 
donations  and  for  regular 
programs.  He  cited  St. 
Agatha  Church,  Milton 
which  recently  conducted  a 
gift  drive. 

Thanks  to  The  Giving 
Trees  at  St.  Ann's  Church, 
Quincy  and  St  Claire's 
Church,  Braintree,  shelter 
residents  and  families  get 
presents  of  hats,  mittens  and 
clothes.  Special  attention  is 
given  to  fulfilling  children's 
wishes. 

"The  Spirit  of  State  Street" 
is  a  unique  group  of  about  15 
of  Father  Bill's  friends, 
according  to  Yazwinski. 
Members  are  retired 
employees  of  State  Street 
Bank  who  sort  donations  and 
pack  the  Christmas  treasure 
bags  and  help  with  the 
distribution. 

Father  Bill's  corporate 
friends  include  South  Shore 
Savings  which  collected 
blankets.  Triangle  Foods  of 
Norwell  di.stributed  sets  of 
pots  and  pans  to  30  families 
for  Christmas,  and  Boston 
Financial  Data  Service,  Inc., 
sent  a  cash  contribution 
raised  by  employees. 

Even  with  such  help,  more 
is  needed  as  shelter  numbers 
increase  and  more  people  are 
stressed.  Until  recently,  the 
shelter  figures  were 
decreasing  as  placement 
efforts  now  empha.size  long- 
term  housing.  That  changed 
recently. 

\'azwinski  said  that,  now, 
more  persons  are  seeking 
help  at  the  shelter  due  to  the 
weather  and  economic 
factors. 

Normally,  the  center 
sleeps  75  persons.  On  a  recent 
night,  126  persons  needed  a 
bed.  That  night,  the  staff  had 
to  round  up  30  cots  and 
blankets.  In  fact,  staff 
members  had  to  go  out  and 
buy  extra  blankets  to  cover 


the  extra  visitors. 

■'Wc  didn't  have  enough 
cots,"  said  Ya/winski,  said 
referring  to  the  previous 
night.  "We're  really  in  need 
of  blankets.  We  need  Army 
cots." 

The  number  of  families  in 
need  is  also  increasing  as 
Christmas  approaches.  For 
Christmas,  the  shelter  gives 
gift  cards  to  their  residents 
but  Yazwinski  said  they  need 
many  more  donations  of  gift 
cards  to  continue  the 
program.

Quincy  Lodge  of  Elks 

The  Quincy  Lodge  of  Elks 
distributes  about  200  holiday 
baskets  with  turkeys  and  all 
the  trimmings  to  local 
families  at  Christmas  and 
Thanksgiving. 

E.xalted  Ruler  Paul  Tracey 
is  chairman  of  this  year's 
holiday  basket  program.  In 
addition,  Steve  and  Cindy 
Mignosa  coordinate  the

School  St..  Quincy. 
according  to  Director  Bill 
Lawless. 

Last  Christmas.  103 
requests  were  filled  through 
the  Society  while  this  year, 
150  individuals  and  families 
are  already  on  the  list. 

Lawless  cites  economic 
condition;  "'A  lot  of  people 
are  out  of  work."  In  addition, 
he  said  that  a  lot  of  elderly 
are  living  on  a  fixed  income. 
Parishioners  at  St.  John's 
Church  participate  in  The 
Giving  Tree  Program  by 
choosing  a  paper  tag  from 
the  tree  on  the  altar.  The  tag 
tells  the  person  what  a 
recipient  might  need  or  if  a 
child  is  involved,  wish  for  a 
Christmas  present. 

Over  3000  persons  are 
members  ofSt.  John's  Parish 
and  a  good  number  help  the 
Christmas  giving  program 
through  the  red  envelopes 
distributed  for  donations  to 
persons  and  families  in  need. 
Lawless  said  they  might 
find  four  quarters  or  a  check 
for  $500  in  a  red  envelope. 
All  of  the  funds  support  the 
program,  the  60  plus  gift 
baskets  and  the  food 
program. 

"The  people  are  very 
supportive,"  said  Lawless 
who  also  described  the 
Christmas  giving  by  Friends 
of  the  Unborn  who  buy  gifts 
for  mothers  and  their 
children. 

Lawless  said  the  support 
and  aid  provided  by  Rev. 
Richard  Cannon,  the  pastor 
at  St.  John's  Church,  helps 
the  Society  reach  its  goals. 
Quincy  City  Club,  Inc. 
The  100  members  of  the 
Quincy  City  Club  spread 
cheer  and  good- will  with  gifts 
and  Christmas  baskets  while 
maintaining  a  low-key 
presence  in  the  city, 
according  to  Joe  Donovan,  a 
member  of  the  club's  Board 
of  Directors. 

"The  club's  mission  is  to 
help  those  who  have  less  than 
we  have,"  said  Donovan  who 
described  hundreds  who  are 
given  gifts  of  clothing  and 
personal  items  at  nursing 
homes,  the  Long  Island 
shelter,  and  DOVE. 

"We  raise  funds  in  the 
month  of  December,"  said 
Donovan,  adding  everything 
is  done  anonymously. 

"We  know  who  needs  it," 
said  Donovan  of  the  club's 
list  compiled  by  the 
membership.  Members 
gather  and  deli  ver  Chri  stmas 
baskets  "very  quietly" 
outside  doors  and  recipients 
never  know  the  source. 

The  100  members  only 
meet  three  or  four  times  a 
year,  according  to  Donovan 
who  described  Sunday 
morning  meetings  at  Adams 
Inn  or  Squantum  Yacht  Club. 
In  the  beginning, 
Donovan  said  the  late  Rev. 
Cornelius  J.  Heerey,  then 
pastor  of  Sacred  Heart 
Church  offered  blessings  and 
a  homily  at  the  group's 
meetings. 

The  late  Richard  Koch 
founded  the  Quincy  City 
Club.  His  son.  Mayor-elect 
Thomas  Koch,  is  current

Morrissey  Suggests  Display 
Flag  On  Raised  Center  Pole 


Sen.  Michael  Morrissey 
has  suggested  a  pernianent 
soluiiDii  to  the  problems  that 
have  been  raised  over  the 
disphiy  of  the  American  Hag 
at  the  north  entrance  to 
Wollaston  Beach. 

Simply  raise  the  center 
pole  higher  than  the  others 
and  fly  Old  (]|ory  there, 
above  the  Hags  of  the  Com- 
inonu  e.ilth  of  Massachusetts 
anti  the  Depaiiment  of  C'on- 
ser\ation  i^:  Recreation 
(IX'R) 

The  controNcrsy  erupted 


on  Page  I  of  I'lic  Qiiiiu  \  Sun 
last  week  when  Henry  Fisher 
of  Marina  Drive,  a  World 
War  II  veteran,  complained 
that  the  banners  were  being 
llown  all  wrong. 

The  DCR,  which  man- 
ages Wollaston  Beach,  disre- 
spected the  American  flag, 
he  said,  by  flying  it  some- 
times on  the  right  pole, 
sometimes  on  the  left,  some- 
times in  the  nnddle. 

And,  said  Fisher,  the  flag 
IS  flown  24  ht)urs  a  day  at  the 
spot  near  the  intersection  oi

I'-ast  Squantum  Street  and 
Quincy  Shore  Drive,  when  it 
should  either  be  illuminated 
or  taken  down  at  night. 

The  last  move  by  the 
DCR  was  [o  move  the  U.  S. 
flag  to  the  pole  on  the  right, 
an  accepted  procedure  for 
displaying  the  flag. 

"Although  I  do  not  be- 
lieve the  current  display  is 
incorrect,  I  feel  having  the 
center  flagpole  raised  and  the 
I'  S.  flag  moved  to  the  cen- 
ter may  clear  up  any  confu- 
sion or  questions  of  those 
who  see  it,"  said  Morrissey 
in  a  letter  to  DCR  Commis- 
sioner Richard  Sullivan. 

"Perhaps  it  would  be  pos- 
sible to  replace  the  center 
flagpi>le  with  a  taller  one  or 
to  soiiK'how  raise  the  base  in 
a  cost  eftectixe  manner." 

The  senator,  uho  lives  in 
Squantum.  acri>ss  the  bay 
from  the  flagpoles,  had  a 
solution  to  the  questuMi  ot 
flying  the  flag  at  night,  loo. 

"Perhaps."  he  said,  "the 
use  c^f  solar-poueied  lighting 
could  be  explored  tor  the 
nighttime  flying  of  the  U.  S. 
Flag."

BONE  SPURS 


Bone  spurs  are  protrusions 
that  grow  along  the  edge  of  a 
bone.  Although  they  can  occur 
on  any  bone  in  the  body,  they 
often  appear  on  the  heels.  They 
occur  because  they  body  cre- 
ates calcium  deposits  as  the 
plantar  fascia  pulls  at  the  bot- 
tom of  the  foot.  (The  plantar 
fascia  Is  a  band  of  tissue  that 
njns  along  the  bottom  of  the 
foot.)  Bone  spurs  can  cause  a 
lot  of  pain  in  the  rear  portion  of 
the  foot,  especially  when  walk- 
ing or  standing.  The  podiatrist 
can  help  determine  what  is 
causing  the  strain,  and  he  or 
she  may  recommend  a  pre- 
scription orthotic.  Other  treat- 
ments include  stretching, 
weight  loss,  and  wearing  shoes 
with  a  supportive  heel  cup. 

Most  people  suffer  from 
sonf)e  kind  of  foot  disorder  at 
some  poirt  in  the  lives,  from 


bone  spurs  and  bunions  to 
nail  problems  and  disease. 
Heredity,  poor  foot  care,  inju- 
ries, and  medical  conditions 
are  often  the  culprits,  but 
poorly  fitting  and/or  inappro- 
priate footwear  can  also  cause 
problems.  Whatever  condition 
your  feet  are  in,  we  will  treat 
them  with  care  and  compas- 
sion to  restore  comfort  and 
ease  of  movement.  We're  lo-

Council  Rejects  Zoning 
Change  Near  Waterfront 


The  City  Council  Monday 
rejected  one  proposed  zoning 
change  and  tabled  a  zoning 
by-law  revision  that  would 
have  impacted  two  properties 
near  the  waterfront. 

After  considerable  debate, 
efforts  to  rezone  10  acres  of 
waterfront  property  at  FoUett 
Street,  Quincy  Point,  from 
its  current  Industrial  A 
designation  to  a  Planned  Unit 
Development  (PUD)  zone 
failed. 

In  addition,  councillors 
rejected  a  one  sentence 
change  in  the  city's  zoning 
bylaws  which  would  have 
affected  a  proposal  for  80 
apartments  on  1.5  acres  at 
260  Victory  Road  near 
Marina  Bay. 

The  council  majority  did 
support  the  PUD  designation 
by  a  5-3  vote  but  rezoning 
requires  a  two-thirds  vote  or 
six  votes  in  this  case. 

Councillors  John  Keenan 
and  Joseph  Finn,  along  with 
Ward  6  Councillor  Brian 
McNamee  voted  against  the 
zoning  change.  Councillor 
Michael  McFarland  was 
absent  for  the  discussion  and 


vote. 

Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  said  that  he 
proposed  the  PUD  zoning  in 
an  effort  to  protect  the  area. 
With  a  PUD  designation, 
Raymondi  said  that  the  City 
Council  would  have  final 
control  over  any  new  project 
in  the  area. 

The  issue  created 
controversy  in  the  Quincy 
Point  neighborhood  off 
Washington  Street.  In 
October.  dozens  of 
neighbors,  speaking  on  both 
sides  of  the  issue,  filled 
council  chambers  for  a  public 
hearing.  Opponents 

submitted  a  petition  signed 
by  300  residents. 

Keenan,  Finn  and 
McNamee  cited  that  petition 
and  the  delicate 

environmental  issues  on  the 
Follett  Street  property  which 
currently  houses  a  marina  and 
a  restaurant.  The  Inn  At  Bay 
Pointe. 

The  second  zoning 
proposal,  a  bylaw  revision, 
would  have  created  a  blanket 
change  in  the  city's  zoning 
allowing    developers    to 


construct  apartment  units 
with  325  square  feet  per  unit 
in  contrast  to  current 
provisions  requiring  2,500 
square  feet. 

The  zoning  change  would 
support  plans  for  an  80-unit 
apartment  building  at  260 
Victory  Road,  a  project 
proposed  by  Thomas 
O'Connell  and  260  Victory 
Road,  LLC. 

In  2004,  the  Zoning  Board 
of  Appeals  allowed  a  Special 
Permit  for  O'Connell's 
project.  However,  that  permit 
is  the  subject  of  litigation 
instituted  by  his  neighbors  at 
Marina  Bay  in  Seaport  and 
Chapman's  Point. 

Opponents  state  that 
O'Connell  can  only  build  25 
units  under  the  current 
zoning. 

After  the  meeting, 
O'Connell  said  that  he  does 
not  plan  on  changing  his 
proposal  for  80  units  on  the 
property. 

No  action  was  taken.  City 
Council  President  Doug 
Gutro  said  the  council  will 
revisit  the  issue  in  January.

Cooking  et|uipment  is  the 
leading  cause  of  h(Mne  fiies. 
Unattended  cooking  is  the 
principal  behavioral  factor 
behind  these  fires.  It  is  too 
easy  during  the  holiday  sea- 
son to  begin  cooking  and 
become  distracted  with  other 
holida>  matters.  If  you  must 
leave  the  kitchen,  bring  a

An  ignited  tree  can  be-

pecially imperative  to  adhere

Rehired  Police  Officer 
To  Sue  City  For  Compensation 


Counsel  for  Quincy  Po- 
lice Officer  Timothy  Kaes 
has  filed  notice  that  his  cli 
ent  intends  to  sue  Chief  Rob- 
ert Crowley  and  the  city  of 
Quincy  for  his  losses  when 
he  was  fired  and  humiliated 
for  no  Just  cause  and  rehired 
without  recompense. 

Attorney  Richard  C. 
Bardi  said  the  price  for  Kaes' 
"severe  emotional  distress 
and  anguish,  lost  wages  and 
public  humiliation"  is 
$5()(),()(M)  and  he  offered  to 
discuss  mediation,  arbitra- 
tion, compromise  or  settle- 
ment of  the  claim. 

Chief  Crowley  declined 
to  comment  on  the  prospec- 
tive suit. 

The  case  began,  accord- 
ing to  Bardi,  on  Sept.  27, 
2(K)4,  when  Kaes  was  in  an 
early  morning  auto  accident 
and  went  to  the  emergency 
room  at  Quincy  Medical 
Center  where  he  was  cited  by 
Police  Sgt.  Patrick  Flaherty 
for  leaving  the  scene  of  an 
accident. 

Bardi  said  Flaherty  told 
Chief  Crowley  that  Kaes  was 
not  driving  under  the  influ- 


ence of  alcohol  but  Crowley 
told  him  to  arrest  Kaes  on 
that  charge  anyway.  How- 
ever, a  clerk  magistrate  in 
Dedham  District  Court  dis- 
missed all  the  charges. 

Crowley  then  appealed 
the  magistrate's  ruling  to  the 
district  attorney,  Bardi  said, 
and  the  charges  were  rein- 
slated.  Crowley  requested 
that  Kaes  be  dismissed  from 
the  force  and  Mayor  William 
Phelan  fired  him.  He  was 
acquitted  of  all  charges  in 
13edham  court. 

The  city  of  Quincy  still 
refused  to  rehire  him,  said 
Bardi,  until  an  arbitrator 
ruled  that  he  had  been  termi- 
nated without  just  cause.  He 
was  then  reinstated,  said  his 
attorney,  but  the  city  failed 
to  repay  him  for  losses  in- 
curred as  a  result  of  his  ter- 
mination. 

"It  is  our  opinion,"  said 
Bardi  in  his  notice  of  intent 
to  file,  "that  Chief  Crowley 


abused  his  power  as  Police 
Chief  and  maliciously  pros- 
ecuted Officer  Kaes. 

"Further,  we  maintain  that 
Chief  Crowley  intentionall\ 
inflicted  emotional  distress 
upon  Officer  Kaes,  inter- 
fered with  Officer  Kaes"  ad- 
vantageous contractual  rela- 
tionship  with  the  city  of 
Quincy  and  violated  Officer 
Kaes'  constitutional  rights." 

Certified  letters  of  intent 
were  sent  to  Crowley, 
Phelan,  City  Clerk  Joe  Shea 
and  City  Council  President 
Doug  (jutro  and  referred  to 
City  Solicitor  Monica 
Conygham.

More 
Scams! 

Readers  have  been  lor- 
v\  arding  incidents  that  they 
hav  e  been  soliciied  by  One 
scam  v^as  from  a  conipanv 
named  "Lort/  Francis  and 
AsscKiaies,"  mlorming  the 
'winner"  that  he  won  over 
$250,000  r.S.  dollars  from 
"OnIineGambling.com." 

The  scam  is  the  usual 
ploy  w  here  a  check  (a  copy 
appears  at  the  nght)  is  en- 
closed with  mstruciions  to 
cash  the  check,  then  send  a 
portion  back  to  pay  for  the 
"processing  fee." 

To  unravel  the  scam  is 
easy.  By  going  online,  so 
much  information  is  avail- 
able. 

First,  by  checking  the 
area  code  of  the  telephone

number,  it  can  be  determined 
that  the  number  comes  back 
to  Ontario,  Canada,  where 
many  of  these  scams  origi- 
nate. A  Google  check  of  the 
name.  "Lortz  Francis" 
showed  no  match. 

Another  method  lo  deter- 
mine that  it  is  a  scam  is  to 
scnitmize  the  structure  of  the 
letter:  look  at  the  wending, 
look  at  the  misuse  of  certain 
words  and  look  for  mis- 
spelled words.  No  legitimate 


company  would  submit  such 
a  poorly  wntten  letter 

Another  scam  is  from  "A 
Corporate  Financial  Service 
Provider"  (no  name  pro- 
vided) from  the  Channel  Is- 
lands, stating  one  of  their 
customers  died  recently  and 
had  no  next  of  kin,  leaving 
24.3  milUon  pounds. 

Since  no  one  applied  for 
the  money,  the  group 
matched  the  customer  name 


with  your  last  name  and 
wants  to  split  the  money 
with  you.  The  only  thing 
you  need  to  do  is  provide 
your  full  name,  private  tele- 
phone number  fax  number 
and  location  where  the 
money  will  be  deposited. 

That's  too  much  infor- 
mation to  be  giving  out.  As 
ridiculous  as  this  sounds, 
scammers  keep  doing  this 
because  it  works!

A  Job  Well  Done 

(This  suspect  is  just  disgusting).  On  Wednesday.  IX'c. 
12.  at  approxiniaiciy  2.15  a.m..  Officer  Chiis  Klioi  was 
on  nniiine  patrol  in  the  area  o\' the  Hess  gas  station  t>n 
I  lancock  -Street  in  Ni>rth  Quincy  w hen  he  hcaid  the  sound 
of  a  car  crash,  lie  ttinicil  around  aiul  ohsoiAcJ  thai  one 
vehicle  had  crasiied  into  the  tea  o\'  a  second  veiiiclc. 
which  was  now  pulling  into  a  parking  area.  The  other 
vehicle  then  sped  oil  soulh-

Officet  Kliei  observed  the  suspect  vehicle  rapidly  ac- 
celerate tci  .1  speed  of  .ippioMinately  50  miles  per  hoiii 
.IS  ii  speed  tliiough  the  stop  sign  .il  Billings  Road.  .\s 
OlTicer  Klier  neaied  the  sanie  inlcrscclioii.  he  sU>ucd 
down  lor  safetv  purposes  and  w.iiclied  as  the  suspect 
vehicle  lirifted  to  the  left,  then  crashed  ihioiigh  a  chain- 
link  fence,  into  a  parked  car  and  then  into  a  tice. 

Officer  Klier  instructed  he.idquaiteis  to  send  an  am- 
bulance, then  appioacheii  the  suspect  v  chicle  cautiously, 
observing  a  male  driver  and  a  female  front-seated  pas- 
senger Both  front  and  side  aiihags  had  deployed  and 
there  w  as  extensive  damage  to  the  v  ehicle.  Officer  Klier 
ordered  the  suspect,  who  was  talking  with  the  Female 
passenger,  to  show  his  hands  (tor  weapons),  but  he  kept 
talking  and  ignored  the  instructions.  The  female  passen- 
ger was  yelling  that  her  legs  were  trapped. 

Officers  Jim  Piuisi  and  Jay  Grazioso  arrived  on  scene 
and  they  told  both  parties  in  the  car  to  unlock  the  door, 
but  the  doors  remained  locked.  The  occupants  were  told 
that  a  window  w ould  be  broken  to  gain  access  to  the  car. 
The  driver  just  laughed.  To  protect  the  occupants,  the 
officers  attempted  to  break  the  rear  windows  without 
spraying  glass  on  the  driver  and  his  passenger,  but  the 
window  stayed  intact. 

The  suspect/driver  then  said.  "Ha-ha,  bullet-proof 
glass!"  When  told  again  to  exist  the  vehicle,  the  suspect/ 
driver  reclined  his  seat,  lil  a  cigarette  and  said,  "After  a 
couple  more  hauls."' 

During  his  interaction  with  the  suspect.  Officer  Klier 
was  making  observations  about  his  sobriety  and  deter- 
mined the  suspect  had  slow  and  slurred  speech,  nor  was 
he  concerned  that  he  just  crashed  his  car  and  injured  a 
friend.  At  this  time,  Sgt.  Richard  Gilmore,  the  Quincy 
Fire  Department  and  Fallon  Ambulance  arrived  on  scene. 
After  additional  attempts  to  get  the  suspect  to  exit  the 
vehicle  and  get  help  to  his  passenger,  the  Quincy  Fire 
Department  applied  their  tools  to  the  rear  window. 

Officers  removed  the  suspect  without  incident,  but 
once  he  was  informed  he  was  under  arrest,  he  resisted 
by  stiffening  his  arms,  which  resulted  in  additional  of- 
ficers handcuffing  him.  The  passenger's  legs  were 
trapped  under  the  dashboard  and  after  a  few  minutes,  the 
Fire  Department  extricated  her  and  Fallon  Ambulance 
transported  her  to  the  hospital.  The  suspect/driver  was 
first  transported  to  Quincy  .Medical  Center,  so  Officeis 
Paul  Holland  and  Ron  .McKim  were  dispatched  to  guard 
him. 

As  the  attending  physician,  who  is  eight  months  preg- 
nant, treated  the  suspect,  he  spit  blood  in  her  face,  then 
stood  up  and  urinated  all  over  the  lloor  Once  medically 
cleared,  the  suspect  was  transported  to  the  station  for 
booking. 

The  suspect  then  complained  of  pain  and  was  checked 
out  by  Fallon  Ambulance  E.M.T.s,  who  provided  him 
with  a  head  bandage.  Once  back  in  his  cell,  the  suspect 
took  off  his  bandage  and  defecated  in  it,  then  smeared 
his  own  feces  all  over  the  glass  door  to  his  cell. 

The  suspect,  a  2y-year-old  Quincy  resident,  was 
charged  w  ith  "Operating  Under  the  Influence  of  Alco- 
holic Beverage,  I^eaving  the  Scene  of  an  Accident  with 
Property  Damage.  Failure  to  Stop  for  the  Police,  Reck- 
less Operation  of  a  Motor  Vehicle"  and  numerous  traffic 
violations.  Officer  Klier  also  charged  the  suspect  with 
"Assault  and  Battery  on  a  Pregnant  Person  and  two  counts 
of  Vandalism  with  Noxious  Fluids"  for  urinating  at  the 
hospital  and  smearing  feces  in  the  cellblock. 
Nice  Work! 

In  this  case,  the  officers  protected  themselves  physi- 
cally by  demanding  that  the  suspect  show  his  hands  and 
they  had  sufficient  personnel  lo  restrain  him,  but  the  sus- 
pect put  the  officers  and  medical  personnel  at  risk  when 
he  exposed  them  to  multiple  bodily  excretions. 

Fortunately,  due  to  training  and  experience,  the  offic- 
ers were  able  lo  take  his  man  off  the  street!

Fend  Off  The  Flu  This  Season 


( NU )  -  If  you  find  yourself 
coming  down  with  a  bad  case 
of  the  sniffles  this  winter, 
you  are  not  the  only  one.  The 
Centers  for  Disease  Control 
and  Prevention  (CDC) 
estimates  that  each  year  35  to 
50  million  Americans 
contract  some  strain  of  the 
flu,  and  children  miss 
approximately  22  million 
days  of  school  due  to 
symptoms  caused  by  colds 
and  flu.  Many  of  these 
diseases  are  spread  from 
touching  infected  surfaces 
and  then  one's  nose,  mouth 
and  eyes-nol  just  through 
coughing  and  sneezing. 

This  year,  protect  your 
family  and  stay  healthy  with 
these  simple  tips  that  will 
keep  you  germ-free: 


It  is  an  obvious  but  often 
over-looked  step-wash  your 
hands  frequently  with  warm 
water  and  soap.  According 
to  Dr.  Charles  "Dr.  Germ" 
Gerba  at  the  University  of 
Arizona,  the  process  of  hand 
washing  alone  can  reduce 
illness  rates  by  30  to  50 
percent. 

Know  the  limitations  of 
sanitizers  and  disinfections. 
Many  of  these  products  kill 
bacteria  that  lie  on  the  surface 
but  don't  provide  long-term 
protection.  Many  hard 
surfaces  can  become  re- 
contaminated  with  bacteria 
or  viruses  within  seconds  of 
being  cleaned.  Pathogens  that 
cause  respiratory  infections, 
particularly  in  children, 
typically  survive  for  up  to 


three  days  on  surfaces, 
according  to  a  study  by  Dr. 
(jerba. 

Some  great  products  to 
try  this  season  include: 

New  products  like 
Unelko's  non-toxic, 

biodegradable  1  -Step  Clean 
&  Shield 

(www.unelko.com),  the  only 
surface-care  product  that 
deep-cleans  and  forms  an 
organic,  protective  shield  on 
surfaces-preventing  the 
growth  of  bacteria,  mold  and 
mildew.  This  product  applies 
an  invisible  water,  soil  and 
stain  repellent  barrier  that 
lasts  fordays,  providing  one- 
step  cleaning  and  long-term 
surface  protection. 

Children's  backpacks 
carry  germs  into  your  home 


and,  when  thrown  on  the 
floor,  thi>se  germs  spread.  Fry 
eco-f  riendly  cleaners  for  your 
floors.  Steam-cleaning 
products  like  Shark's  Steam 
Mop 
(www.SharkSteamMop.com) 
turn  ordinary  tap  water  mto 
deep-clean  nig  steam  that  lifts 
dirt  out  of  hard  surfaces, 
locking  It  away  in  a 
microfiber  pad  and 
outperforming  chemical-pad 
mops-keeping  your  home 
clean  and  loxic  free.  More 
than  1 50  chemicals  found  in 
the  average  home  have  been 
linked  to  allergies,  birth 
defects,  cancer  and 
psychological  abnormalities, 
according  to  the  Consumer 
Product  Safety  Commission. 


High-Acid  Drinks  And  Tooth  Erosion,  Cavities 


(NU)  -  Wondering  why 
your  pearly  whites  have 
tumed  into  pearly  off- whites? 
Part  of  the  answer  could  be  in 
the  mug  on  your  desk. 

High-acid  drinks  such  as 
soda  and  coffee  can  have  a 
lasting  negative  effect  on  the 
appearance  and  health  of 
teeth.  According  to  the 
American  Dental 

Association,  it  is  widely 
accepted  that  acid  in  food 
and  beverages  plays  a  major 
role  in  the  dexelopment  of 
enamel    erosion.    Some 


dentists  also  warn  that  high- 
acid  soft  drinks  and  coffees 
can  expedite  the  development 
of  cavities. 

"Teeth  become 

susceptible  to  cavities  when 
the  acid  level  of  saliva  falls 
below  a  certain  point,"  said 
Dr.  T.  Richard  Ziehmer.  a 
dentist  in  Tucson.  Ariz.  "If 
the  acid  level  of  the  saliva 
stays  below  this  point  for  an 
extended  period  of  time,  the 
outer  layers  of  tooth  structure 
begin  to  lose  minerals,  and  a 
cavitv  can  form.  Beverages 


that  are  high  in  sugar  and 
acid  content  can  cause  the 
pH  level  of  the  sali  \  a  to  reach 
this  critical  point." 

Bearing  this  in  mind,  some 
coffee  manufacturers  have 
bcizun  to  offer  lev.  -acid  brew  s 
that  -.till  maintain  a  full- 
bodied  flavor. 

In  regards  to  tooth  erosion 
and  the  development  of 
cavities.  Ziehmer  sa>s  that 
drinks  such  as  Tyler's  Coffee 
are  good  altemati  v  es  to  more 
acidic  bev  erages.  He  advises 
his  patients  not  to  consume 


beverages  that  are  high  in 
acid  or  sugar  but  notes  that  if 
someone  chooses  to  drink 
such  a  beverage,  it  is  best  to 
dnnk  it  quickly  to  minimize 
the  impact  on  the  teeth. 

"The  uorst  thing  anyone 
can  do  is  to  sip  these  tvpes  of 
beverages."  Ziehmer  saiJ. 
"However,  it  i^  not  verv 
practical  forsomeone  todnnk 
a  hot  cup  ot  coffee  quicklv. 
so  a  coffee  beverage  that  is 
free  of  acid.  >ugar  or  non- 
dairv  i^.'eamer  could  decrease 
a  person"  s  nsk  for  dev  eloping 
cavities." 


Do  Your  Shoes  Measure  Up? 


(NU)  -  When  was  the  last 
time  you  had  your  feet 
measured.'  If  you  can't  quite 
remember,  your  so-called 
tried-and-truc  shoes  may 
have  your  feet  crying  out  for 
a  different  size. 

That's  right,  according  to 
a  recent  survey  conducted  by 
the  American  Podiatric 
Medical  Association 

(APMA),  40  percent  of  male 
and  female  respondents 
couldn't  remember  the  last 
time  their  feet  were 
measured.  Additionally,  65 
jjercent  of  American  women 


between  the  ages  of  1 8  and 
49  have  not  had  their  feet 
measured  within  the  last  five 
years-meaning  they  are 
probably  trekking  .u"ound  in 
shoes  that  don't  fit. 

And  since  the  survey  also 
repons  that  84  percent  of  both 
male  and  female  respondents 
chose  comfort  ov  er  stv  le 
when  buying  non-athletic 
shcK's,  it  is  surpnsing  tiiat  foot 
measurements  have  gone  bv 
the  wayside.

Not  to  mention,  an  ill-tltting

feet.  With  the  possibility  of 
painful  blisters  and  unsightlv 
corns  to  unnervmg  neuronia.N

nothing  like  finding  a  shoe 
with  the  perfect  fit. 

Here  are  a  few  tips  from 
the  .\PM.\  that  will  help  vou 
put  your  best  foot  forw.u-d: 

It  IS  important  to 
remember  that  w  hen  you  are 
getting  fitted  for  a  new  shoe, 
you  should  wait  until  later  in 
the  day  because  vour  feet 
swell  throughout  the 
afternoon    .\nd  be  sure  to 


stand  '.vhen  vour  feet  are 
being  measured  or  fitted 

Don't  be  Nurpnsedif  your 
feet  UK  not  the  >ame  size  If 
you  have  this  problem.  tr>  on 
botfi  shoes,  and  walk  around 
the  store,  preferably  on  a  hard 
surt'ace. 

Sta>  awav  from  shoes  that 
require  a  "break-in"  penod. 
Properly  t'ltting  she->es  should 
be  comfortable  immediatelv 

Conduct  a  "dress

while  you  are  wearing  the 
same  type  of  socks  or 
stivkings  you  expect  to  wear 
with  the  shc»es.

New  Exercise 
Program?  Check 
With  Doctor  First 

2.1  get  fitness  maga- 
.  zines  in  the  mail  and 
about  ail  types  of 
exercise  programs  on  the 
Internet.  At  the  end  of 
many  articles  it  says  to  see 
a  physician  before  starting 
an  exercise  program. 
What  would  my  doctor 
look  for  in  order  to  deter- 
mine if  I  can  start  an  exer- 
cise program? 

A  .Exercise  stresses  the 
•  body's  muscles, 

joints  and  internal  organs. 
Making  sure  your  body  is 
ready  and  able  to  endure 
these  stresses  is  the  main 
reason  to  see  your  physician 
before  beginning  any  exer- 
cise program. 

In  most  cases,  your  physi- 
cian would  be  excited  to 
know  that  you  are  exercis- 
ing and  taking  care  of  your 
body.  Your  physician  would 
need  tc  determine  -Ahethcr 
there  are  any  n.sk  factors  — 
potential  or  cu-Tcnt  nr.edical 
conditions  —  that  might 
need  to  be  taken  into  cons.d- 
eration  before  you  'oeg-.r. 
your  exercise  prograrr. 

Risk  factors  can  include 
age  ''men  o".er  -10  and 
women  over  50  j,  a  current  or 
pas:  medical  h:stcry  cf  dia- 
betes, high  blood  pressure, 
high  choiesterc;,  heart  dis- 
ease, ostecporcsis.  arthnt:s 
or  puLmonx'^-  conditions 
such  as  asthuT^a.  Other  condi- 
tions uTvcivLng  the  kidney, 
liver  anU  -ivtoiu  in  auditior. 
to  your  cardicva^cjiar  histo- 
ry also  arc  considered.  Pis: 
surgeries,  lomt  replace- 
ments, broken  bcnes. 
fusions  and  other  conditions 


that  seem  to  have  lingered 
for  a  while  all  should  be 
reviewed  before  starting  an 
cxcrcKse  program. 

Not  only  should  your 
medical  histor>'  be  reviewed 
by  your  physician  before 
you  begin  to  exercise,  but 
also  other  life  factors  such 
as  pregnancy  (current  and 
post),  your  current  fitness 
status  and  even  if  you 
smoke.  All  of  these  factors 
play  a  role  in  the  type  of 
exercise  program  that  will 
b)c  best  for  you. 

The  main  reason  the  arti- 
cles you  have  read  suggest 
you  see  a  physician  before 
exercising  is  to  keep  you 
safe.  Due  to  the  nature  of 
how  the  exercise  program 
was  designed,  it  may  or  may 
not  be  what  is  nght  for  YOU. 
The  program  displayed  m 
t.he  magazine  or  onime  may 
reijuire  you  to  'oe  at  a  certain 
fitness  level,  strength  level 
or  ha\'e  a  cardiOva.scuiar

Choosing  The  Right  Kind  Of  Mortgage 


(NU)  -  Horncbuying  can 
be  a  stressful  or  uncertain 
business  at  times.  In  today's 
market,  there's  much  debate 
about  what  type  ol  mortgage 
to  gel-an  adjustable-rate  or  a 
fixed  iTiortgage-and  how  do 
you  know  when  it's  time  to 
consider  refinancing  an 
adjuslable-rate  mortgage? 

Market  Street  Mortgage, 
one  of  the  nation's  leading 
retail  originators  of 
residential  mortgage  loans, 
olfers  these  tips: 

If  you  are  buying  a  home 
now, consider  whether  you' II 
be  able  to  handle  the 
possibility  of  rate  increases 


before  choosing  an 
adjustable- rate  mortgage. 
Don't  let  the  decision  be 
simply  "What  is  the  cheaper 
payment  to  get  me  into  the 
house"  because  it  may  not  be 
the  best  choice  for  the  future. 
Dependnig  on  your  situation, 
you  could  also  consider  a 
five-year  ARM  if  you  know 
you'll  move  before  it  starts 
adjusting,  or  if  your  projected 
income  will  also  increase,  f  )n 
the  other  hand,  tor  stability. 
select  a  fixed-rate  mortgage 
to  provide  a  steady  principal 
and  interest  part  of  your 
mortgage  payment. 

Take  the  time  to  compare 


the  two  options  side  by  side. 
Ask  yourself  how  much  you 
are  really  saving  each  month 
by  choosing  the  adjustable- 
rate  mortgage  over  the  fixed. 
Is  it  worth  the  risk  of  how  the 
rate  will  adjust  in  the  near 
future' Or  IS  it  worth  the  cost 
of  refinancing  later.' 

And  what  if  you  already 
have  an  adjustable-rate 
mortgage'  Review  your 
documents  and  determine 
what  the  initial  fixed  period 
IS.  I-or  example,  a  5/\  ARM 
is  fixed  for  the  first  five  years 
and  then  adjusts  every  year 
after  that.  So,  if  you  plan  on 
remaining  in  your  home  once 


the  loan  stalls  to  adjust,  you 
should  iletermine  whether 
you'll  be  able  to  atlord  the 
new  monthly  payment  that 
will  go  into  effect  Ciet  in 
touch  with  your  mortgage 
consultant  before  you  reach 
the  adjustment  time,  so  you 
can  start  tracking  rates  and 
reviewing  your  options. 

Talk  with  a  mortgage 
consultant  so  they  can 
prov  ide  you  with  an  analysis 
and  the  right  tools  to  assist 
you  in  making  V  our  decision.

By  SKAN  BRKNNAN 

North  (Quincy.  the 
clcfcnding  co-chanipions  of 
the  Atlantic  COast  Leagues 
North  Division,  have 
reloaded  this  winter,  and 
should  once  again  be  a  major 
player  for  another  run  at  a 
league  title. 

The  Raiders  finished 
2(M)6-2{K)7  with  a  16-5  record 
and  entered  the  South 
Sectional  tournament  as  the 
#4  seed.  The  team's  post- 
season run  was  ended 
prematurely  with  a  62-50 
lirst-round  loss  to  Durfee 
High  School,  but  this  year's 
team  returns  a  handful  of 
players  whose  game 
experience  and  senior 
leadership  should  propel 
North  to  even  greater  heights 
in  2008. 

"We  have  the  potential  to 
be  a  strong  team,"  said  first- 
year  head  coach  Michael 
Jorgenson,  "but  we  will  have 
our  hands  full  with  all  ACL 
opponents.  Whitman- 
Hanson  will  be  strong  again 
this  season  and  it  wouldn't 


GIRLS'  BASKETBALL 


surprise  me  to  see  them  there 
at  the  end  with  us  again. 

"But  the  team  has  high 
expectations  and  with  a 
number  of  experienced 
players  returning  from  last 
year's  North  Division 
champions  we  should  be  in 
good  shape  when  the 
tournament  comes  around." 

Returning  this  season 
from  last  year's  team  are 
Rebecca  Goreham,  Paige 
Bonanni.  Mary  Kate  Stille, 
Kasey  O'Connell,  Siobhan 
Carnell,  Jess  Howlett, 
Kathleen  Lynch  and  Rushri 
Wijesundera. 

"1  have  high  expectations 
for  a  number  of  our  returning 
players,"  added  Jorgenson. 
"With  Goreham  we  return 
the  school's  all-time 
rebounder,  Bonanni  gives  us 
senior  leadership  and 
youngsters  Kathleen  Lynch 
and  Rushri  Wijesundera  give 
us  some  added  energy." 

Jorgenson,  who  takes  over 


the  head  coaching  duties  this 
season  from  Doug 
MacFarlane.  has  been  a  part 
of  the  Red  Raider  basketball 
program  for  the  last  seven 
years,  five  years  as  the 
freshman  coach  and  the  last 
two  as  the  jayvee  coach.  He 
has  been  an  English  teacher 
at  NQHS  for  eleven  years. 

"1  preach  fundamentals 
everyday  in  practice,"  he 
said.  "We  started  out  the 
preseason  with  a  number  of 
scrimmages  and  practices 
and  (coaching  staff)  have 
tried  to  instill  in  the  team  a 
defensive  mindset. 

"This  year  we  will  change 
what  needs  to  be  changed 
everyday,  every  practice  and 
every  game.  If  we  can  stick 
with  the  good  fundamentals, 
rebounding,  playing  defense 
and  limiting  our  mistakes  on 
the  court,  we  have  the 
potential  to  continue  the  good 
things  that  this  team 
accomplished  last  year." 


The  Raiders  opened  their 
season  on  Dec.  10  with  a 
tough  non-league  loss  to 
Brockton  High  School,  56- 
50. 

North  led  49-48  midway 
through  the  fourth  quarter, 
but  Brockton  pulled  away  in 
the  end  to  earn  the  victory. 

"We  played  well  and  came 
out  firing  in  the  opening  half," 
said  Jorgenson,  "but  playing 
against  Brockton  is  always  a 
test  and  they  are  always  a 
tough  opponent." 

Goreham  finished  with 
team  high  14  points  and 
Lynch  ended  the  game  with  a 
double-  double  (12  points, 
10  rebounds). 

The  Raiders  played 
Whitman-Hanson  HS  on 
Tuesday  in  a  rematch  of  last 
year's  co-champions  of  the 
Atlantic  Coast's  North 
Division.  The  team  is 
scheduled  to  play  Falmouth 
HS  at  home  on  Friday  (6:30 
p.m.),  and  will  be  playing 
after  Christmas  in  the  Notre 
Dame  Academy  Tournament 
on  Dec.  28  and  29.

The  North  Quincy  Red

ARIES  (March  21  to  April 

1 9)  Make  a  start  on  that  new 
workplace  challenge.  But  get 
more  information  before  you 
find  yourself  too  deeply 
involved  without  knowing  in 
which  direction  you  should 

go. 
TAURUS  (April  20  to  May 

20)  You  might  find  things 
becoming  tedious  as  your 
schedule  slows  down  for  the 
holidays.  Use  this  time  to  get 
information  about  a  possible 
post-New  Year  job  change. 

GEMINKMay  21  to  June 
20)  The  creative  Twin  finds 
outlets  for  her  or  his  ideas  in 
the  early  part  of  the  week. 
The  practical  Twin  takes  it  a 
step  further  and  rallies  sup- 
port to  turn  the  ideas  into 
reality. 

CANCER  (June  21  to  July 
22)  It's  time  to  stop  being 
intimidated  by  someone's 
negative  behavior.  Start  tak- 
ing positive  steps  on  your 
own  to  help  strengthen  your 
position  down  the  line. 

LEO  (July  23  to  August  22) 
Look  closely  at  that  so-called 
golden  opportunity.  Best  to 
be  a  cautious  Cat  who 
approaches  things  slowly, 
than  one  who  pounces  with- 
out knowing  where  you'll 
land. 

VreOO  (August  23  to  Sep- 
tember 22)  Your  apology  can 
resolve  that  personal  situa- 
tion before  it  overshadows 
the  holidays.  You'll  feel  bet- 
ter, even  if  you're  only  partly 
to  blame  for  what  happened. 

LIBRA  (September  23  to 


October  22)  Avoid  overtax- 
ing yourself,  even  if  your 
energy  levels  are  high  and 
you  feel  that  you  can  do  it  all. 
Best  to  pace  yourself  so  you 
won't  run  yourself  down 
before  the  holidays. 

SCORPIO  (October  23  to 
November  21)  Your  sense  of 
humor  helps  get  you  through 
a  stressful  period.  Some  of 
your  quick  quips  can  take  the 
edge  off  any  remaining  nega- 
tivity being  aimed  at  you. 

SAGITTARIUS  (Novem- 
ber 22  to  December  21 )  Your 
artistic  talents  not  only  help 
you  express  yourself  these 
days,  but  they  also  set  up  a 
line  of  communication 
between  you  and  someone 
verv  special. 

CAPRICORN  (December 
22  to  January  19)  It's  fine  to 
appreciate  the  importance  of 
"proper  form"  for  doing 
things.  But  relax  a  bit  in  order 
to  allow  newcomers  on  the 
project  to  feel  less  intimidat- 
ed by  vou. 

AQUARIUS  (January  20  to 
February  18)  Use  your 
boundless  reserve  of  opti- 
mism to  persuade  others  to 
work  with  you  to  resolve  a 
difficult  workplace  problem 
before  it  can  ruin  your  holi- 
day fun. 

PISCES  (February  19  to 
March  20)  You  brim  over 
with  self-confidence  as  you 
begin  to  tackle  a  new  chal- 
lenge. And,  before  you  know 
it,  you're  not  alone:  Others 
have  taken  the  plunge  with 
you. 

BORN  THIS  WEEK:  You 
have  a  highly  defined  sense 
of  commitment  to  others.  You 
would  make  a  fine  social 
worker.

THIS  CHRISTMAS  SEASON 


annual  Service  of  the  Long- 
est Night.  The  service  will  be 
held  in  the  chapel. 

"For  some  people,  the 
holiday  season  can  be  very 
stressful  and,  sometimes, 
very  unhappy,"  said  the  Rev. 
Dr.  Susan  Y\  Jarek-Cilidden, 
pastor  of  Quincy  Commu- 
nity United  Methodist 
Church. 

"Facing  the  first  Christ- 
mas without  a  loved  one's 
physical  presence,  dealing 
with  an  imminent  death,  liv- 
ing with  an  illness  that  places 
a  question  mark  over  the  fu- 
ture, coping  with  the  loss  of 
a  job,  lacing  life  after  a  di- 
vorce or  separation,  and 
sometimes  Just  like  in  gen- 
eral can  make  holiday  cel- 
ebration very  difficult,  if  not 
im|H)ssiblc, "  .larek-Glidden 
said. 

The  service  gets  its  name 
from  the  Winter  Solstice,  the 
Longest  .Nighl  of  the  year.  It 
is  very  simple  and  gentle, 
consisiiiiL'  o\  music,  Sciip- 
Uirc  lessons,  readings, 
pi.iycr,  and  quiet  rel1ectit>n. 
Its  purpose  is  to  pro\ide  a 
sale  place  for  people  who  are 
dealing  with  gncf  and  loss  of 
any  kind,  whether  that  grief 
and  loss  are  recent  or  de- 
cades old. 

Everyone  is  invited  to  at- 
tend.

FRIENDLY  FOES  -  Mayor-elect  Tom  Koch  (left)  and  Mayor  William  Phelan.  who  fought  each 
other  on  the  hustings  for  most  of  the  year,  joined  forces  amid  the  falling  snow  around  the 
collection  pot  to  ring  Christmas  bells  for  the  Salvation  Army.  They  were  among  49  community 
leaders  who  rang  the  bell  for  the  Sallies  to  help  those  in  need  this  holiday  season.

^  Child-Friendly  Emergency 
Room  Planned  At  QMC 


A  visit  to  a  hospital  emer- 
gency room  can  be  a  very 
scary  experience  for  a  child 
—  and  for  the  youngster's 
parents,  too. 

With  this  in  mind.  Quincy 
Medical  Center  is  in  the  pro- 
cess of  creating  a  pediatric 
section  within  its  emergency 
room  to  provide  special  pe- 
diatric care  in  a  more  child- 
friendly  manner. 

The  room  will  be  deco- 
rated with  children  in  mind 
and  the  waiting  area  separate 
from  the  main  emergency 
waiting  area  to  benefit  the 
families. 

The  Pediatric  Emergency 
Room  initiative  has  been  is- 
sued a  challenge  grant  by  the 
trustees  of  the  John  W. 
Arnold  Trust  designed  to  in- 
spire others  to  give  in  the 


spirit  of  philanthropy. 

QMC  is  seeking  support 
from  local  businesses,  foun- 
dations and  trusts  that  sup- 
port children's  health  initia- 
tives. 

"Members  of  the  QMC 
Board  of  Trustees  and  Foun- 
dation Board  of  Directors 
have  generously  answered 
my  call  to  support  this  ef- 
fort," said  Anthony  Agnitti, 
the  chair  of  the  Foundation 
Board. 

"Hospital  administrators 
and  department  head  have 
also  made  gifts  to  create  this 
special  unit  for  the  children 
or  our  community.  Now  I'm 
hoping  that  the  residents  of 
Quincy  and  surrounding 
towns  will  help  us  meet  this 
challenge  grant." 

Monday,  Dec.  31  is  the 


deadline  to  meet  the  chal- 
lenge and  QMC  is  asking 
community  residents  to  con- 
sider making  a  ta.x-deduct- 
ible  gift  to  support  the 
project. 

Checks  made  payable  to 
Quincy  Medical  Center  may 
be  mailed  to  the  Develop- 
ment Office,  114  Whitwell 
St.,  Quincy  02169,  or  call 
Amy  Klotz,  development 
officer,  at  617-376-5493 
with  questions  or  donations 
by  credit  card. 

Gifts  of  $50  or  more  that 
are  received  by  the  end  of  the 
year  will  be  included  in  the 
annual  Quincy  Medical  Cen- 
ter Honor  Roll  of  Donors 
booklet  that  will  be  pub- 
lished early  in  2008  and 
mounted  on  a  display  at  the 
hospital. 


Presidential  Primary  Feb.  5 


This  year's  presidential 
primaries  will  be  held 
Tuesday,  Feb.  5,  a  month 
earlier  than  is  customary  in 
this  state. 

The  Feb.  5  date  is  known 
as  Super  Tuesday,  because 
voters  in  22  states  will  go  to 
the  polls  that  Tuesday  to  cast 
ballots  in  either  the  Democrat 
or  Republican  primaries. 

Polls  will  open  at  7  a.m. 


and  close  at  8  p.m.  The 
polling  places  in  all  six  of  the 
city's  wards  will  be  the  same 
?.s  for  past  elections. 

The  last  day  for  voter 
registration  for  this  election 
is  Wednesday,  Jan.  16  from 
9  a.m.  to  8  p.m.  This  is  also 
the  last  date  on  which  voters 
may  change  party  affiliation. 
Unenrolled  voters  may 
choose  either  ballot. 


Gov.  Deval  Patrick 
scheduled  primary  election  a 
month  earlier  this  year  in  an 
effort  to  maintain  and 
enhance  the  Bay  State's 
impact  on  presidential 
choices. 

In         prior         years, 

Massachusetts'   primaries 

were  held  in  March  as  were 

the  primaries  in  many  other

Koch  Victory, 

New  QHS  Project 

Among  Top  Stories 


By  rOM  HENSHAW 

It  was  not  a  good  year  to 
be  in  charge  in  Quincy. 

Mayor  William  Phelan 
felt  it  the  most,  particularly 
on  the  first  Tuesday  in  No- 
vember when  he  lost  his  bid 
for  a  fourth  two-year  term  to 
former  Park  Commissioner 
Tom  Koch. 

It  seemed  like  city  em- 
pl  >vces  were  i  ipping  at  the 
^  flanks  all  year. 

;  ....'ian  himself  touched  it 
ct]  v\  ith  his  mid-term  address 
in  Vvliich  he  warned  that  the 
laigL-  and  growing  benefits 
packages  city  workers  re- 
ceive is  threatening  the  fi- 
nancial stability  of  the  city. 

Bill  when  he  attempted  to 
cut  the  city's  share  of  health 
benefits  to  teachers,  some 
900  of  them  struck  tor  lour

400  members  of  city  em- 
ployee unions  were  braving 
wind  and  rain  to  picket  City 
Hall  in  support  oi  12  unions 
who.se  contracts  had  expired 
in  July,  2006. 

Phclan's  police  chiel, 
Robert  Crow  ley,  was  lia\  ing 
his  own  problems. 

It  seemed  like  Bruce  Tait, 
the  president  i>f  the  Patrol 
Officers  Union,  was  con- 
stantly before  the  City  C(^un- 
cil  complaining  about  staff- 
ing, overtime  and  vacation 
schedules.

A  Happy  Holidays  Reunion 

'Marine  Family' 

Welcomes  Marines 

Home  From  Iraq 


By  LAURA  GRIFFIN 

The  Marine  slogan  may 
be  "The  Few.  The  Proud." 
but  there  are  more  than  a  few 
Marines  in  Bob  Godfrey's 
family.  Godfrey  of  Wollaston 
is  a  former  Marine  lance  cor- 
poral. 

There  are  six  Marines  or 
former  Marines  in  Godfrey '  s 
family.  This  includes 
Godfrey 's  brother,  two  of  his 
three  sons  and  two  grand- 
sons, Cpl.  Richard  Godfrey 
and  Cpl.  Ryan  Croak,  both 
20  years  old. 

All  the  Marines  and  some 
100  family  and  friends  re- 
cently gathered  at  the  Ameri- 
can Legion  Nickerson  Post 
in  Squantum  to  welcome  the 
young  Marines  home  from 
Iraq.  Rev.  Michael  Goddarz 
of  all  Saints  Episcopal 
Church,  Wollaston,  offered 
a  blessing. 

"This  is  an  all-Marine 
family,"  said  Godfrey  who 
trained  for  1 3  weeks  at  Parris 
Island,  SC  a  few  decades  ago 
and  served  as  a  lance  corpo- 
ral. Actually,  he  said  that 
other  services  are  also  well 
represented  in  his  family. 

1  saw  both  of  my  grand- 


sons graduate  from  Parris 
Island."  said  Godfrey.  "Parris 
Island  is  a  life-changing  ex- 
perience for  everyone." 

Godfrey's  son,  Steven 
Godfrey  of  Middleboro,  also 
served  as  a  Marine  sergeant 
in  the  Middle  East  in  the 
1 980'  s  when  Marine  barracks 
were  bombed  by  terrorists. 
Steven  Godfrey  is  now  a  State 
Trooper. 

On  October  23, 1983,  ter- 
rorists stormed  the  Marine 
barracks  in  Beirut  with  a  truck 
full  of  explosives  and  killed 
241  Marines. 

"I  found  out  they  were 
going  to  come  out  with  a 
survivors'  list."  recalled 
Godfrey  who  was  working  at 
The  Boston  Globe  at  the  time. 

Then,  the  hst  of  1550  sur- 
vivors came  out,  "His  name 


was  not  on  it."  said  Godfrey 
who  believed,  for  many  long 
hours,  that  his  son  was  killed 
with  the  other  Marines. 

"He  wasn't  accounted 
for,"  said  Godfrey  who  de- 
scribed the  horror  for  him 
and  his  family  at  that  time. 

Now,  his  grandsons  face 
dangers,  also,  in  the  Middle 
East.  Even  though  they  have 
seen  death  and  destruction 
and  their  friends  killed, 
Godfrey  said  that  they're  both 
ready  to  return  to  duty, 
"These  kids  are  amazing." 

Both  Cpl.  Godfrey  and 
Cpl.  Croak  are  on  temporary 
leave  and  will  return  to  ac- 
tive duty  after  the  first  of  the 
year.  Cpl.  Godfrey  is  the  son 
of  Robert  Godfrey,  Jr.  who 
served  in  the  Army.  Cpl.

Mayor  William 
Phelan  and  Mayor- 
elect  Tom  Koch 
chatted,  smiled,  and 
laughed  while 
manning  the  kettle

They  had  waged 
a  bit  of  a  political 

slugfest  for  months  but  that  was  all  forgotten  as  they 
teamed  for  the  Salvation  Army. 

Someone  asked  Phelan  if  he,  as  outgoing  mayor,  had 
any  advice  for  Koch,  the  incoming  mayor. 

"I  already  gave  it."  Phelan  said.  "But  that's  between 
Tommy  and  me."

So,  the  vote  Jan.  7  at  the  council's 
organizational  meeting  will  be  pretty 
much  a  formality. 

Quite  unlike  the  one  in  1962. 
That  was  the  year  when  Charles 
Shea  and  John  Quinn  were  nominated 
for  the  presidency. 

And  when  eight  councillors  had  voted.  Shea  and 
Quinn  were  tied  with  four  votes  each. 

The  last  to  vote 
alphabetically 
would  be  Quinn. 
All  he  had  to  do  was 
to  vote  for  himself 
and  he  would  be  the 
council  president. 
The  temptation 
might  have  been 

And  those  wht)  knew  they  were  the  mayor  and     there,  but  Quinn  voted  for  Shea,  handing  him  the 
mayor-elect  were  pleased  to  see  them  publicly  standing     presidency, 
together  for  a  worthy  cause.  Why? 

It  was  a  nice  sight.  Quinn  had  already  committed  his  vote  to  Shea  and 

It  was  like  a  message  of  peace  for  the  city.  loyally  kept  his  word  by  voting  against  himself. 

Phelan,  incidentally,  has  no  definite  plans  for  the         Quinn  did  become  president  in  1978  and  served  24

MEMA  Warns  Of  Snow  On  Flat  Roofs  And  Drains 


Even  when  the  snow 
stops  falling,  the  white  stuff 
that  didn't  reach  the  ground 
can  still  be  a  hazard  to  life 
and  limb. 

"The  wet  snow  and  heavy 
rain  present  a  threat  for  roof 
collapse,  as  well  as  localized 
street  and  basement  flood- 
ing." warns  MEMA  Diiiector 
Don  Boyce.  "If  not  cleared 
off  of  roofs  the  snow  acts  as 
a  sponge,  absorbing  any  ad- 
ditional sleet  and  rain,  add- 
ing stress  to  structures. 

"Additionally,  MEMA 
encourages  citizens  to  clear 
stonn  drains  in  their  neigh- 


borhoods to  minimize  local 
flooding  problems  from  the 
runoff." 

Relatively  flat  roofs  are 
particularly  vulnerable.  In 
many  cases,  roof  ice  dams 
have  formed  causing  water 
build-up,  leading  to  interior 
damage. 

Here  are  some  tips  from 
MEMA  on  minimizing  the 
stress  of  heavy  snow  and 
water  on  roofs: 

•  Be  on  the  alert  for  large 
accumulating  snow  build-up 
or  snowdrifts  on  your  roof. 

•  If  roof  snow  can  be  re- 
moved by  a  snow  rake,  do  so. 


but  use  caution,  as  metal 
snow  rakes  conduct  electric- 
ity if  they  contact  a  power 
line. 

•  Try  to  avoid  working 
from  ladders,  as  ladder  rungs 
tend  to  ice  up.  Also  snow  and 
ice  collect  on  boot  soles  and 
metal  ladders. 

•  Flat  roofs  can  be  shov- 
eled clear  but  only  if  it  is  de- 
termined that  the  roof  is  safe 
to  stand  on.  Exercise  care 
when  on  the  roof  to  avoid 
jwtential  falls. 

•  Flat  roof  drainage  sys- 
tems should  be  kept  clear  to 
minimize  the  risk  of  excess 


roof  ponding  in  the  event  of 
subsequent  heavy  rainfall  or 
melting. 

•  Large  icicles  can  form 
on  roof  overhangs  but  do  not 
necessarily  mean  ice  dam- 
ming it  is  occurring.  Icicles 
doorways  or  walkways  can 
be  dangerous  and  should  be 
carefully  removed. 

•  All  of  the  mentioned  ac- 
tions should  only  be  per- 
formed by  able-bodied 
adults  as  the  snow  is  heavy 
and  roofs  and  other  surfaces 
may  be  slippery.  Protective 
headgear  and  eye  protection 
is  recommended.

THIS  1948  POSTCARD  is  entitled  "Your  local 
Woolworth  Store  on  Hancock  Street,  Quincy,  Mass." 
On  the  left  can  also  be  seen  the  old  Touraines  store  and 
part  of  the  Capitol  Theater  building.  The  postcard  was 
published  just  after  this  new  Woolworth  store  opened 
on  the  comer  of  Cliveden  Street.  They  moved  here  from 
the  Adams  Building  at  the  other  end  of  the  Square  where 
they  had  been  located  for  almost  50  years.  Woolworth 's 
^Iso  had  a  smaller  store  in  Wollaston  Center  for  many 


years.  The  store  shown  here  with  its  popular  lunch 
counter  was  open  for  almost  50  years  when  Woolworth's 
went  bankrupt  in  the  mid  1990s.  Today,  the  building  is

Tax  Increases  And  Energy  Saving  Initiatives 


I  read  in  the  Dec.  6  edi- 
tion of  the  Quincy  Sun  that 
our  tax  increase  this  year  is 
under $118. 

I  was  actually  expecting 
taxes  to  go  down  this  year, 
because  the  real  estate  val- 
ues have  gone  down  so  dra- 
matically the  past  two  years. 
Last  year  I  asked  Ms. 
Fantucchio,  Chair,  Board  of 
Assessors,  when  will  the 
lower  real  estate  values  re- 
flect on  our  tax  rate?  Ms. 
Fantucchio  responded  by 
stating:  "Your  lower  tax  rate 
will  not  reflect  before  '08  as 
the  state  goes  by  last  year's 
valuations,  so  the  lower 


value  will  reflect  in  '08  as- 
sessments." This  was  a  logi- 
cal explanation. 

I  missed  the  public  hear- 
ing opportunity  to  bring  Ms. 
Fantucchio's  comments  and 
other  tax  saving  ideas  to  the 
Council's  hearing  during  the 
public  comment  period.  I  am 
thankful,  however,  that  Mrs. 
Fisher  was  there  to  represent 
many  taxpayers  that  share 
with  her  exactly  the  same 
sentiments.  The  oil,  the  gas, 
electricity,  has  risen  for  ev- 
eryone, including  for  the  city 
to  keep  their  facilities  warm 
and  lighted.

Opposes  Preserving 
Souther  Tide  Mill 


After  reading  an  article,  in 
November,  I  would  like  to 
voice  my  opinion  and  oppo- 
sition to  saving,  supporting, 
and  preserving  the  Souther 
Tide  Mill. 

We  already  have  as  many, 
or  more  than  the  other  places 
referred  to,  "that  are  doing 
it,"  who  don't  have  half  of 
what  we  have,  historically. 

The  Souther  Tide  Mill  has 
been  a  neglected  blight  on 
the  commercial  conscious 
Southern  Artery  location  for 
too  many  years.  Sandwiched 
in  between  the  CVS  Phar- 
macy building,  and  Quirk's 
Car  business,  and  landfills,  it 
sits  on  possibly  less  than  a 
marshy  acre,  if  you  consider 
the  seawater  wending  it's 
way  through,  cutting  a  good 
slice  out  of  the  property. 

I  love  all  history  in  gen- 
eral, especially  Quincy's  rich 
history,  with  one  exception, 
and  that  is  keeping  the  Old 
Souther  Tide  Mill.  I  feel  that 


the  money  to  support  it  could 
be  put  to  better  use.  The 
standpoint  from  your  many 
readers'  opinions  may  deter- 
mine their  pro's  and  con's, 
and  some  may  even  suggest 
what  the  land  could  be  bet- 
ter used  for.

do  not  have  the  cash  cow, 
meaning  the  taxpayer  that 
bails  out  the  city  each  time 
they  need  additional  revenue 
to  cover  the  cost  of  over- 
spending. 

Homeowners  have  to 
stick  to  their  budget,  other- 
wise they  loose  their  homes, 
and  many  have  already.  We 
are  left  on  mercy  of  the  city 
tax  collectors.  When  we  try 
to  file  an  abatement  or  other 
tax  relief,  the  income  levels 
are  set  so  low,  that  one  won- 
ders when  the  polices  and 
procedures  were  established, 
perhaps  in  the  50s  income 
level. 

I  read  also  the  city  of 
Quincy  now  has  a  new  en- 
ergy saving  policy  in  place; 
the  light  bulbs  for  example, 
have  been  replaced  with  new 
energy  saving  ones.  An  out- 
side contractor  installed  the 
bulbs.  Was  it  paid  by  the  city 
or  by  Honeywell,  I  do  not 
know,  but  I  am  glad  that  they 
have  been  replaced.  Right 
away,  many  homeowners 
have  done  that  many  years 
ago,  but  just  recently  it  made 
news  in  Quincy. 

Perhaps  additional  energy 
saving  initiatives  are  on  the 


city's  docket,  not  only  the 
light  bulbs.  Case  in  point, 
Lincoln  Hancock  School 
pool  girls'  side  shower/ 
locker  room  temperature  still 
hovers  around  90  degree 
Fahrenheit.  1  learned  that 
there  is  no  thermostat  to  tuni 
down  the  heat.  What's  more, 
at  times  when  I  have  gone  for 
a  swim;  I  have  found  that  all 
the  eight  showers  are  run- 
ning at  once.  If  no  one  is 
there  to  turn  them  off  manu- 
ally, the  showers  keep  on 
wasting  natural  resources. 

It  is  good  to  see  that  en- 
ergy saving  initiatives  have 
started  in  Quincy  and  I  hope 
that  Honeywell  is  going  to 
help  Quincy  to  correct  addi- 
tional projects  as  well.  If  the 
city  were  running  its  affairs 
similar  to  what  Mrs.  Fisher 
suggested  at  the  hearing,  we 
would  be  getting  lower  taxes 
and  part  of  our  investments 
returned. 

I  hope  the  homeowners 
take  notice  and  contact  their 
city  councillors  and  give 
them  ideas  on  how  to  con- 
trol the  continuing  tax  in- 
creases.

Baked  Scallops  -  Pudding  Pie 


It  was  at  our  annual  cousin's  Christmas 
Piirty  at  Mary  Gosselin's  home  when  I  found 
amidst  a  huge  buffet  of  entrees  today's  deh- 
cious  scallop  recipe  and  an  incredible  pud- 
ding pie. 

Mary  said  her  son  Cjary  gave  the  scallop 
recipe  it  to  her  and  it  was  so  delicious  that  I 
went  back  for  seconds.  Plus  it  has  very  few 
ingredients. 

It's  made  with  a  pound  of  scallops,  but 
you  can  expand  it  if  you  want. 

The  recipe  for  the  pie  Ibllows 
CARY'S  BAKED  SCALLOPS 

1  pound  scallops  ( I  use  the  sea  scallops 
which  are  large) 

1  pint  of  cream  (heavy  or  light) 

1/4  cup  each  of  grated  parmesan  and 
romano  cheese 

(Mary  said  you  can  also  u.se  a  Mexican 
blend  cheese) 

bread  crumbs  for  topping 

Mix  the  scallops  with  a  the  cream  and  the 
cheeses.  Place  in  a  slightly  greased  casserole 
dish  and  sprinkle  the  top  w  ith  bread  crumbs. 

Bake  in  a  350  degree  oven  for  20  minutes. 


If  made  ahead  of  time,  it  can  be  zapped  in  the 
micro  for  a  couple  of  minutes  which  we  did 
before  serving  it  at  the  party. 

The  other  recipe  was  Mary's  delicious 
pudding  pie.  ("ailed  "Fa  La  La  Luscious" 

CANDY  CRUNCH  PUDDING  PIE 

2  cups  cold  milk 

2  packages  of  Jell-O  chocolate  instant 
pudding  and  pie  Tilling 

I-  K  ounce  tub  of  whipped  topping 

2  milk  chocolate  English  toffee  candy 
bars  chopped 

I  OREO  pie  crust 

1  square  Baker's  semi-sweet  baking 
chocolate,  melted 

Beat  the  milk  and  dry  pudding  mixes  and 
whisk  two  minutes  until  well  blended.  Gen- 
tly stir  in  half  of  the  whipped  topping  and  all 
but  three  tablespoons  of  the  candy. 

Spoon  into  crust. 

Top  with  remaining  whipped  topping  and 
candy.  Dri//le  with  the  chocolate.  It  can 
either  be  served  immediately  or  refrigerated 
until  ready  to  serve.  It  makes  eight  servings. 
I  won't  mention  the  calories!  Enjoy!

Reaching  Out  to 
Our  Neighbors 

Hy  J.  Keith  Motley,  PhD,  UMass  Boston  (hancellor 

I  lu'  mh.iii  inissioii  ot  the  Uiuviisitv  ot 
Massachusetts  Kostoii  engages  taeiihv,  stiklents, 
and  staff  mi  some  ot  tlie  niosi  pressing  social 
issues  tacni};  hoston  .mkI  the  region.   I  Ins  mission 
IS  pnrsueil  hotli  on  our  campus  aiui  m  our  neigh 
horhoocis,  main  ot  which  are  riih  in  histois  aiul 
ethnic  diversity  l">ut  also  have  a  disproportionate 
niimher  ot  people  strnggling  heiow  the  poverty 
level.  As  winter  approaches,  the  lIMass  Boston 
tainilv  has  again  reached  out  to  help  those  m  neetl 
from  (^)uincv  and  other  local  (.ommunities. 

Aided  In  the  sponsorship  and  support  ot  the 
(  itv  ot  BiAton,  the  I  amiie  Mae  louiul.ition,  the 
Ipswich  C  ().,  aiul  other  organi/ations,  UMass 
Boston  steppeil  up  its  oftensive  against  poverty 
with  a  concert  at  Dorchester's  Strand  Theatre  on 
Noveinher  16.  Part  of  the  McC'ormack  (Jraduate 
School's  (iive  US  Your  Poor  initiative,  the  concert 
featured  singer/songwriter  Natalie  Merchant, 
Mightv  Sam  McCllain,  (ireek  tenor  Mario  I'ran- 
goulis,  ami  Boston's  own  Buttalo  lom  hand.  Pro- 
ceeds troni  the  concert  support  the  city's  indigent 
and  homeless  population,  and  those  from  a  Ciirc 
US  Your  l\)()r  C!D  released  earlier  this  year  help 
address  homeiessness  nationally. 

The  university  has  likewise  teamed  with 
local  civic  and  husiness  leaders  on  a  project  that 
explores  ways  to  improve  existing  diversity  pro- 
grams; to  assist  immigrants  and  others  who  are 
learning  Hnglish;  and  to  tell  the  story  of  Boston's 
new  "minority  majority."  It  was  conceived  by 
McC'ormack  School  dean  Steve  Crosby  in  collabo- 
ratit)n  with  former  Suffolk  C'ounty  District  At- 
torney Ralph  Martin  and  Boston  Globe  publisher 
Steve  Ainsley.  The  project's  senior  director  is  Bob 
Turner,  a  onetime  Globe  editor  and  the  current 
Boston  Globe  Fellow  at  the  McCormack  School. 

UMass  Boston  is  committed  to  making  our 
neighborhoods  better  places  to  grow  and  learn. 
In  that  spirit,  on  November  29  I  hosted  the  Com- 
munity Safety  Summit.  The  event  brought  together 
state  and  local  officials  from  a  coalition  called  the 
Charles  Shannon  Community  Safety  Initiative, 
which  annually  prcwicles  $1 1  niillicm  for  youth- 
violence  prevention  and  focuseti  law  enforcement. 

Education  itself — public  higher  education  in 
particular — also  plays  a  crucial  role  in  making  our 
neighborhoods  safe.  To  become  productive  mem- 
bers of  society,  young  people  need  opportunities  to 
express  their  talents  and  pursue  their  dreams,  and 
UMass  Boston  seeks  to  provide  such  opportuni- 
ties. For  instance,  a  group  i>f  gifted  Boston  Public 
Schools  seniors  visited  our  campus  in  November 
to  learn  about  prtigrams  and  facilities  in  the  C^ollege 
of  Science  and  Mathematics.  And  soon  the  uni- 
versity will  offer  C'hancellor's  Scholarships,  which 
will  finance  UMass  Boston  educations  hn  homeless 
students  from  Massachusetts. 

A  reminder:  Registration  for  spring  2008 
courses  in  the  Division  of  Corporate,  Continuing, 
and  Distance  Education  is  now  taking  place.  Please 
visit  www.umb.edu  for  more  informatii>n. 

On  behalf  of  the  entire  UMass  Boston  com- 
munity, I  wish  you  and  your  family  a  joyous  and 
memorable  holiday  season.

Presidents,"  Ward  6 
Councillor  Brian  McNamee 
said  recently  as  he  announced 
commendations  for  each 
member  of  the  informal 
group  at  the  City  Council 
meeting. 

The  certificates  recognize 
the  youngsters'  generous 
efforts  and  spirit  and  state, 
"We  are  all  most  grateful  for 
the  holiday  cheer  and 
goodwill  you  have  brought 
to  children  in  need." 

Gail  Bellotti  of  Squantum 
actually  began  the  project  1 4 
years  ago  when  she  collected 
money  and  gifts  for  the 
children  at  the  Italian  home. 
Stella  Mahoney.  Marybeth 
Porter,  and  Kathy  Bell  have 
also  worked  on  the  projects. 

Bellotti's  12-year-old 
daughter.  Colleen  Mane,  has 
been  involved  in  the  project 
in  one  way  or  another  all  her 
life.  Early  on,  Bellotti  said 
that  Colleen  raised  funds  at 
lemonade  stands. 

Two  years  ago.  Colleen 
began  inviting  her  friends  to 
help  and  held  fund-raisers 
and  a  dance.  Now,  there  are 
17  young.sters,  age  10  to  14 
years  old,  who  collect  money 
and  gifts  for  children's  gifts. 


Six  of  the  youngsters 
hosted  last  week's  Christmas 
party  for  60  children  at  the 
Italian  Home  where  Chicago 
Cubs  pitcher  Rich  Hill  acted 
and  Chris  Baker  was  master 
of  ceremonies. 

"A  lot  of  these  kids  are 
asking  for  the  smallest  things, 
like  a  box  of  Fruit  Loops,  or 
just  a  pi'  are  of  themselves 
for  their  mother  whom  they 
may  not  even  know,"  said 
Bellotti. 

Thanks  to  her  daughter  and 
the  other  young  helpers, 
Bellotti  said  that,  this  year, 
120  youngsters  got  special 
wrapped  dream  gifts  with 
such  presents  as  electric 
guitars,  Nintendo  DS 
systems,  electronic  dance 
mats.  Baby  Alive  dolls  and 
MP3  players. 

McNamee  said  that  it  is 
important  to  recognize  such 
generous  efforts  by  young 
people  who  may  not  be 
athletic  stars  or  cheerleaders, 
"Everybody  talks  about  kids 
getting  into  mischief  but 
these  are  good  kids." 

The  young  elves  live  in  all 
parts  of  the  city,  with  many 
from  Squantum  and  Houghs 
Neck,  St.  Ann's  School  and

Council  Approves 

$3.3M  Purchase 

Of  Quincy  Point  Land 


At  their  last  meeting  of  the 
2006-2007  session,  the  City 
Council  finalized  their 
approval  of  a  $3.3  million 
bond  for  the  purchase  of 
13.75  acres  off  Circuit  and 
Bower  Roads,  Quincy  Point. 

This  is  the  last  of  the  three 
major  open  space 
acquisitions  recommended 
this  year  by  the  Community 
Preservation  Committee 
(CPC).  Payments  will  be 
funded  through  local 
Community  Preservation  tax 
receipts. 

Prior  to  the  vote.  City 
Solicitor  Monica 

Conyngham  described  the 
city's  negotiations,  noting 
that  the  property  owners  had 
originally  sought  $4.75 
million  for  the  land. 

After  negotiation, 

Conyngham      said      the 


agreement  was  reached  for  a 
$3.3  million  price,  which  is 
more  than  125%  of  the 
assessed  value  of  $2,3 14,400. 
However,  Conyngham 
said,  "We're  actually 
paying  less  than  the  appraised 
value," 

City  Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  called  the 
property  unique,  and 
described  the  cost  of 
protecting  the  existing 
natural  habitats,"  a  modest 
investment  annually  to 
protect  open  space.  " 

Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  described  the 
decision  as  a  "wonderful 
occasion"  because  the 
purchase  completes  the  open 
space  component  of  Faxon 
Park." 

This  year's  preservation 


receipts  totaled  $2.2  million 
which  includes  local  taxes 
and  the  state's  matching 
funds. 

The  committee 

recommended  and  the 
council  approved  the 
purchase  of  the  three  and  a 
half  acres  known  as 
Cobblestone  at  271  Sea  St. 
for  $3.5  million  and  the 
purchase  of  63,400  square 
feet  West  Quincy  known  as 
Turning  Mill  Estates. 

This  year's  projects  also 
included  $300,000  for 
historic  preservation, 
including  Quarry  Museum 
displays,  the  Foe  River  Club 
House,  Quincy  Homestead 
and  the  Souther  Tide  Mill. 

Funds  were  also  set  aside 
for  affordable  housing  and 
recreation  projects. 


QUINCY  CREDIT  UNION,  Iwated  at  100  Quincy  Ave.,  Quincy,  recently  held  a  care  package 
supply  drive  to  help  make  the  holidays  a  little  brighter  for  active  service  men  and  women  Fight- 
ing overseas  and  for  local  disabled  veterans.  Nancy  Doucette,  QCU  consumer  loan  supervisor, 
volunteered  at  the  supply  drive  in  memory  of  her  dad  who  served  in  the  Marines.  With  her  is 
QCU  employee  James  Medige,  a  disabled  Army  veteran  who  helped  initiate  (he  program. 
Through  the  generous  support  of  QCU  members  and  employees,  QCU  collected  more  than 
$1,800  worth  of  basic  everyday  supplies  during  the  month-long  drive.  Supplies  including  snacks, 
personal  care  products,  batteries,  toiletries  and  stationery  kits  were  packed  and  shipped  with 
the  assistance  of  Quincy  Veterans  Services  in  time  for  Christmas  and  the  New  \ear"s  holiday.

munity Safety  Summit.  The  event  brought  together 
state  and  local  officials  from  a  coalition  called  the 
Charles  Shannon  Community  Safety  Initiative, 
which  annually  prtwides  $1 1  million  for  youth- 
violence  prevention  and  focused  law  enforcement. 

Education  itself — public  higher  education  in 
particular — also  plays  a  crucial  role  in  making  t)ur 
neighborhoods  safe.  To  become  productive  mem- 
bers of  society,  young  people  need  opportunities  to 
express  their  talents  and  pursue  their  dreams,  and 
UMass  Boston  seeks  to  provide  such  opportuni- 
ties. For  instance,  a  group  of  gifted  Boston  Public 
Schools  seniors  visited  our  campus  in  November 
to  learn  about  programs  and  facilities  in  the  College 
of  Science  and  Mathematics.  And  soi>n  the  uni- 
versity will  offer  C'hancellor's  Scholarships,  which 
will  finance  UMass  Boston  educations  for  homeless 
students  from  Massachusetts. 

A  reminder:  Registration  for  spring  2008 
courses  in  the  Division  of  Corporate,  C'ontinuing, 
and  Distance  Education  is  now  taking  place.  Please 
visit  www.umb.edu  for  more  information. 

On  behalf  of  the  entire  UMass  Boston  com- 
munity, 1  wish  you  and  your  family  a  joyous  and 
memorable  holiday  season.

youngsters  from  all  over  the 
city  collected  funds  and  gifts 
for  less  fortunate  youngsters 
at  the  Italian  Home  for 
Children  in  Jamaica  Plan  and 
for  needy  Quincy  youngsters 
through  social  agencies.

Presidents,  "  Ward  6 
Councillor  Brian  McNamee 
said  recently  as  he  announced 
commendations  for  each 
member  of  the  informal 
group  at  the  City  Council 
meeting. 

The  certificates  recognize 
the  youngsters'  generous 
efforts  and  spirit  and  state, 
"We  are  all  most  grateful  for 
the  holiday  cheer  and 
goodwill  you  have  brought 
to  children  in  need." 

Gail  Bellotti  of  Squantum 
actually  began  the  project  1 4 
years  ago  when  she  collected 
money  and  gifts  for  the 
children  at  the  Italian  home. 
Stella  Mahoney,  Marybeth 
Porter,  and  Kathy  Bell  have 
also  worked  on  the  projects. 

Bellotti's  12-ycar-old 
daughter.  Colleen  Marie,  has 
been  involved  in  the  project 
in  one  way  or  another  all  her 
life.  Early  on,  Bellotti  said 
that  Colleen  raised  funds  at 
lemonade  stands. 

Two  years  ago.  Colleen 
began  inviting  her  friends  to 
help  and  held  fund-raisers 
and  a  dance.  Now,  there  are 
17  youngsters,  age  10  to  14 
years  old,  who  collect  money 
and  gifts  for  children's  gifts. 


Six  of  the  youngsters 
hosted  last  week's  Christmas 
party  for  60  children  at  the 
Italian  Home  where  Chicago 
Cubs  pitcher  Rich  Hill  acted 
and  Chris  Baker  was  master 
of  ceremonies. 

"A  lot  of  these  kids  are 
asking  for  the  smallest  things, 
like  a  box  of  Fruit  Loops,  or 
just  a  picture  of  themselves 
for  their  mother  whom  they 
may  not  even  know,"  said 
Bellotti. 

Thanks  to  her  daughter  and 
the  other  young  helpers, 
Bellotti  said  that,  this  year, 
120  youngsters  got  special 
wrapped  dream  gifts  with 
such  presents  as  electric 
guitars,  Nintendo  DS 
systems,  electronic  dance 
mats.  Baby  Alive  dolls  and 
MP3  players. 

McNamee  said  that  it  is 
important  to  recognize  such 
generous  efforts  by  young 
people  who  may  not  be 
athletic  stars  or  cheerleaders, 
"Everybody  talks  about  kids 
getting  into  mischief  but 
these  are  good  kids." 

The  young  elves  live  in  all 
parts  of  the  city,  with  many 
from  Squantum  and  Houghs 
Neck,  St.  Ann's  School  and

Council  Approves 

$3.3M  Purchase 

Of  Quincy  Point  Land 


At  their  last  meeting  of  the 
2006-2007  session,  the  City 
Council  finalized  their 
approval  of  a  $3.3  million 
bond  for  the  purchase  of 
13.75  acres  off  Circuit  and 
Bower  Roads,  Quincy  Point. 

This  is  the  last  of  the  three 
major  open  space 
acquisitions  recommended 
this  year  by  the  Community 
Preservation  Committee 
(CPC).  Payments  will  be 
funded  through  local 
Community  Preservation  tax 
receipts. 

Prior  to  the  vote.  City 
Solicitor  Monica 

Conyngham  described  the 
city's  negotiations,  noting 
that  the  property  owners  had 
originally  sought  $4.75 
million  for  the  land. 

After  negotiation, 

Conyngham      said      the 


agreement  was  reached  for  a 
$3.3  inillion  price,  which  is 
more  than  125%  of  the 
assessed  valueof  $2,3 14,400. 
However,  Conyngham 
said,  "We're  actually 
paying  less  than  the  appraised 
value," 

City  Council  President 
Douglas  Gutro  called  the 
property  unique,  and 
described  the  cost  of 
protecting  the  existing 
natural  habitats,"  a  modest 
investment  annually  to 
protect  open  space.  " 

Ward  2  Councillor  Daniel 
Raymondi  described  the 
decision  as  a  "wonderful 
occasion"  because  the 
purchase  completes  the  open 
space  component  of  Faxon 
Park." 

This  year's  preservation 


receipts  totaled  $2.2  million 
which  includes  local  taxes 
and  the  state's  matching 
funds. 

The  committee 

recommended  and  the 
council  approved  the 
purchase  of  the  three  and  a 
half  acres  known  as 
Cobblestone  at  271  Sea  St. 
for  $3.5  million  and  the 
purchase  of  63,400  square 
feet  West  Quincy  known  as 
Turning  Mill  Estates. 

This  year's  projects  also 
included  $300,000  for 
historic  preservation, 
including  Quarry  Museum 
displays,  the  Foe  River  Club 
House,  Quincy  Homestead 
and  the  Souther  Tide  Mill. 

Funds  were  also  set  aside 
for  affordable  housing  and 
recreation  projects. 


QUINCY  CREDIT  UNION,  located  at  100  Quincy  Ave.,  Quincy,  recently  held  a  care  package 
supply  drive  to  help  make  the  holidays  a  little  brighter  for  active  service  men  and  women  fight- 
ing overseas  and  for  local  disabled  veterans.  Nancy  Doucette,  QCU  consumer  loan  supervisor,

QCU  employee  James  Medige.  a  disabled  Army  veteran  who  helped  initiate  the  program. 
Through  the  generous  support  of  QCU  members  and  employees,  QCU  collected  more  than 
$1,800  worth  of  ba.sic  everyday  supplies  during  the  month-long  drive.  Supplies  including  snacks, 
personal  care  products,  batteries,  toiletries  and  stationery  kits  were  packed  and  shipped  v\ith

Mayor:  City  Strong  But  Financial  Storm  On  Horizon 


(Cont'd  From  Pa^e  I) 

January 

Mayor  William  Phclan, 
beginning  his  sixth  year  as 
the  chief  executive  of 
Quincy,  reported  in  the  mid- 
term address  that  "the  state 
of  our  city  is  strong  and 
growing  stronger." 

But,  he  added,  "even  in 
this  rosy  report  of  our  city's 
condition  there  are  troubling 
storm  warnings  on  the  hori- 
zon that  cannot  be  ignored. 
"The  last-growing  cost  ol 
employee  henelits  and  the 
abnormally  large  percentage 
ol  those  costs  being  paid  by 
the  cily  of  Quincy  is  placing 
a  larger  and  larger  undue 
burden  on  ta.xpayers." 

He  called  it  "a  financial 
crisis  that  threatens  our  fi- 
nancial stability  and  all  the 
progress  we  have  made"  and 
"a  ticking  time  bomb  that  we 
must  defuse  as  fairly  and 
quickly  as  |iossible." 

("ily  C\>uncil  President 
Doug  (lutro  was  sworn  in  to 
a  second  term  w  ith  the  same 
enthusiasm  as  his  fust,  prom- 
ising to  "advance  the  cau.ses 
that  make  Quincy  a  tiesirable 
place  to  li\e  and  work." 

I\>m  Koch  handed  Mayor 
Phelan  his  resignation  after 
12  years  as  executive  direc- 
tor of  the  Piu'k.  Forestry  and 
Cemetery  Departments  and 
informed  him  he  would  be 
running  against  him  for 
mayor  in  the  November  elec- 


tions. 

"The  time  is  now  to  cre- 
ate a  positive  new  vision  for 
our  city's  future,"  he  said. 
"The  stakes  are  just  too  high 
and  our  potential  too  great  to 
face  our  challenges  standing 
still.  We  can  do  better." 

Koch  named  Jack  Nigro, 
a  Houghs  Neck  resident,  to 
be  his  campaign  chairman 
and  .lim  latseas,  a  native  of 
North  Quincy,  to  be  cam- 
paign treasurer. 

Some  6(){)  teachers,  who 
had  been  working  without  a 
contract  for  the  past  five 
months,  demonsliateil  their 
displeasure  at  a  School  Com- 
mittee meeting  to  protest 
what  they  saw  as  a  ct)nnng 
assault  on  their  health  care 
benefits. 

Ward  .^  City  Councillor 
Doug  (iutro  called  it  a  "hor- 
rible situation"  that  an  esti- 
mated 24  businesses  and  or- 
ganizations would  lose  their 
sites  to  landtaking  to  make 
way  for  the  planned  Quincy 
Center  Concourse.

Bruce  Tait,  president  of 
the  Patrolmen's  Union,  told 
the  City  Council  that  Police 
Chief  Robert  Crowley  had 
cut  cruiser  patrols  from  the 
1 3  sectors  of  the  city  and  ac- 
cused him  of  lying  to  the 
Council  during  an  appear- 
ance in  December. 

"In  theory,"  he  said,  "each 
of  the  13  patrol  sectors  is 
staffed  by  a  uniformed  patrol 
officer  in  a  marker  police 
cruiser." 

At  the  December  meet- 
ing, said  Tait,  Crowley  told

a  shift.  'That  was  a  blatant 
lie,"  he  added.  Sometimes 
there  were  instances  where 
there  were  only  9  or  8  cars 
on  a  shift. 

The  City  Council,  by  a  7- 
2  vote,  passed  a  year-long 
moratorium  on  construction 
of  multi-family  dwelling 
units  or  conversion  of  exist- 
ing one-family  homes  in 
Residence  B  zones,  a  zoning 
amendment  aimed  at  devel- 
opers who  convert  single- 
family  homes  to  condos. 

The  Illegal  Rooming 
House  Task  Force,  formed 
by  Mayor  William  Phelan  as 
part  of  his  "Neighborhoods 
First"  initiative,  inspected  98 
properties  and  cited  40  of 
them  for  violations  of  build- 
ing codes. 

DPW  Commissioner 
Stephen  J.  O'Donnell  told 
the  City  Council  he  has  ear- 
marked $7  million  from  the 
state's  Chapter  90  funds  to 
sprucing  up  sidewalks  and 
roads  and  improving  anti- 
quated water  mains.

sidered to  be  the  best  works

ducted for  the  American  In-

More  than  600  people  at-

life  and  work  of  the  Rev. 
William  McCarthy,  for 
whom  Father  Bill's  Place  is

and  accomplishments  over 
the  past  five  years.  Mayor 
William  Phelan  announced 
his  candidacy  for  a  fourth 
term  as  the  city's  chief  ex- 
ecutive. 

"I  look  forward  to  knock- 


ing doors,  visiting  the  super- 
markets, senior  buildings 
and  coffee  shops  to  talk 
about  what  we  have  accom- 
plished together  over  the  past 
five  years."  he  said. 

"We  have  turned  the 
city's  finances  around  com- 
pletely and  we  are  now  reap- 
ing the  benefits  of  our  hard 
work  and  reinvesting  in  our 
city  and  its  neighborhood. 

"I  am  proud  of  my  record 
and  hope  to  continue  our  suc- 
cess  over  the  next  two 
years." 

Meanwhile,  Phelan's 
challenger  in  the  November 
election,  Tom  Koch,  drew  a 
crowd  of  nearly  1 ,500  to  his 
campaign  kickoff  gathering 
in  the  ballroom  at  Granite 
Links  Golf  Club. 

Koch's  complaint  that 
Phelan  violated  election  laws 
when  he  mailed  a  newsletter 
"Quincy  View"  in  the  same 
envelope  with  census  forms 
to  every  Quincy  resident  was 
rejected  by  the  State  Office 
of  Campaign  and  Political 
Finance. 

"This  newsletter  did  not 
urge  recipients  to  vote  for  or 
against  any  candidate  or  so- 
licit campaign  contribu- 
tions," said  Director 
Michael  Sullivan.  "There- 
fore it  is  our  opinion  that  the 
distribution  of  the  newsletter 
did  not  violate  the  campaign 
finance  law." 

Major  Charles  L.  Bifolchi

Capt.  Brudno,  who  was  a

Vietnam  for  seven  and  a  half

after  his  release,  was  recog-

Ward  3  City  Councillor 
Kevin  Coughlin  urged  his

STORM  REFUSE  ON  Avalon  Beach  in  Quincy  Point  is  raked  up  by  Richard  Morris  (left). 
Ward  2  Councillor  Dan  Raymondi  and  Peter  Papile  as  part  of  Quincy 's  Cleaner,  Greener  Cleanup 
in  May.  More  than  1,450  volunteers  picked  up  45  tons  of  trash  at  city  parks,  school  yards  and 
open  spaces.  Quincy  Sun  Piwto/Rohert  Noble 


Phelan  kicked  off  his 
campaign  for  reelection  to  a 
fourth  term  at  the  Elks 
Lodge,  reminding  everyone 
that  he  had  turned  around  the 
city's  finances  from  a  $5  mil- 
lion deficit  to  an  $  11  million 
surplus  and  a  A-*-  bond  rat- 
ing in  five  and  a  half  years. 

The  City  Council  ap- 
proved a  new  anti -blight  or- 
dinance aimed  at  forcing 
negligent  owners  to  clean  up 
eyesores  and  health  hazards 
on  their  properties. 

Quincy  became  a  major 
pioneer  in  senior  citizen 
safety  when  Mayor  Phelan 
designated  the  city's  first  se- 
nior traffic  zone  at  1 25  Gran- 
ite St.,  a  senior  citizen  resi- 
dence, limiting  traffic  to  20 
miles  an  hour. 

Linda  Stice,  a  member  of 
the  School  Committee  for  16 
years,  announced  that  she 
will  not  seek  a  fifth  four-year 
term  in  the  November  elec- 
tions. She  plans  to  enter  a 
doctoral  program  at  Lesley 


College  in  Cambridge. 

Bruce  Tait.  president  of 
the  Police  Patrol  Officers 
Association,  challenged  the 
FBFs  ranking  of  Quincy  as 
the  second  safest  city  in  the 
Commonwealth,  claiming 
the  statistics  were  skewed  by 
computer  glitches  ion  2004 
and  2005. 

City  Councillors  asked 
Tait  to  stop  using  derogatory 
nicknames  for  members  of 
the  Council  on  his  website, 
particularly  a  scatological 
term  for  Councillor  Jay 
Davis. 

"Leave  the  name-calling 
out  of  it,"  Councillor  John 
Keenan  advised  Tait.  "Let's 
bring  dignity  to  the  table; 
engage  in  civil  debate." 

Quincy  and  the  Police 
Patrol  Oftlcer  Union  reached 
agreement  on  a  four-year 
contract,  giving  the  police  a 
1 3  per  cent  raise  over  its  life 
and  also  allowing  for  reduc- 
tion of  the  city's  share  in 
employee  benefits  to  85  per

The  Park  and  Recreation 
Board  voted  5-3  to  proceed 
with  construction  of  a  new 
track  at  Pageant  Field  after 
the  two-year  absence  of  such 
a  facility  and  the  City  Coun- 
cil approved  the  $1  million 
funding 

The  U.S.  Mint  issued  a  $1 
coin  bearing  the  likeness  of 
John  Adams,  the  second 
president  of  the  United 
States,  in  ceremonies  at  City 
Hall  Plaza.  The  mint  planned 
to  strike  four  such  coins  a 
year,  each  honoring  a  presi- 
dent in  order  of  his  succes- 
sion. 

The  Rev.  John  Swanson, 
pastor  of  the  Union  Congre- 
gational Church  of 
Wollaston,  used  his  appoint- 
ment as  guest  speaker  at 
Quincy  "s  Memorial  Day  cer- 
emonies to  denounce  those 
celebrities,  columnists  and 
ex-Presidents  who  make 
reckless  and  uninformed 
comments  on  the  war  in  Iraq. 

More  than  a  dozen  volun- 
teers filled  a  20  cubic  yard 
dumpster,  donated  by  Boston 
Scientific,  with  discarded 
tired,  propane  tanks  and  gar- 
bage bags  full  of  plastic 
bottles,  Styrofoam  cups  and 
snack  wrappers  in  an  Earth 
Day  attack  on  the  banks  of 
the  Neponset  River. 

Mayor  Phelan  used  the 
Earth  Day  celebration  to  an- 
nounce his  new  initiative, 
"Act  Locally,"  a  five-point 
plan  to  help  improve  the  lo- 
cal and  global  environment 
over  the  next  1 2  months. 

More  than  1,450  volun- 
teers fanned  out  across 
Quincy's  park,  beaches, 
marshes,  school  yards  and 
open  spaces,  picking  up  an 
estimated  45  tons  of  trash  in 
what  was  described  as  one  of 
the  most  successful 
"Cleaner,  Greener  Quincy" 
cleanups  in  its  18-year  his- 
tory. 

Forty  of  the  city's  munici- 
pal buildings  were  selected 
to  undergo  major  energy  im- 
provements through  Mayor 
Phelan's  $32.8  million  en- 
ergy initiative  that  would

usage  by  25  per  cent,  fuel

water  usage  by  15  per  cent. 

Attorney  Cieneral  Martha 
C\)akley,  the  first  woman  to 
hold  that  statewide  post,  de- 
livered the  main  address  at 
Law  Day  ceremonies  at 
Quincy  District  Court. 

Three  Quincy  police  ot- 
licers,  Lt.  Charles  Santoro 
and  Officers  Michael 
Sullivan  and  John  Leuchte, 
were  received  the  coveted 
Robert  P.  Dana  Award  for 
their  actions  in  saving  the  life 
of  an  81 -year-old  man  who 
suffered  a  heart  attack  while 
driving  his  car. 

Julia  Ruth  Stevens,  89, 
daughter  of  Babe  Ruth, 
along  with  former  Red  Sox 
pitcher  Bill  Monbouquette, 
were  the  main  speakers  at 
the  Quincy  High  School  Hall 
of  Fame  banquet  at  the  Sons 
of  Italy  Hall. 

Deaths  in  May  included: 

Ralph  A.  McLeod,  90,  of 
Weymouth,  formerly  of 
Quincy,  who  played  six 
games  in  the  outfield  for  the 
Boston  Brave  in  1938.

Groundbreaking  for  the 
long-awaited  new  Quincy 
High  School,  scheduled  for 
June  18,  was  postponed 
when  900  members  of  the 
Quincy  Hducation  Associa- 
tion, who  had  been  working 
without  a  contract  for  18 
months,  walked  out  in  sup- 
port of  their  bid  for  a  new 
contract. 

The  teachers  were  as- 
sessed $150,000  in  fines  by 
the  Norfolk  Superior  Court 
for  an  illegal  strike. 

The  strike  was  in  its 
fourth  day  when  Paul 
Phillips,  the  union  president, 
announced  that  an  agreement 
had  been  reached  on  a  five- 
year  contract  providing  for  a 
1 7  per  cent  wage  hike  and  an 
increase  from  10  to  20  per 
cent  the  teachers'  contribu- 
tion to  their  health  insurance. 

The  contract  was  ratified 
by  the  teachers  on  a  620-43 
vote  and  supporters  and 
unions  across  the  state 
pitched  in  with  unsolicited 
check  to  help  the  teachers 
pay  the  $150,000  fine. 

Meanwhile,  city  officials 
were  preparing  for  the  new 
$126  milhon  Quincy  High 
School  by  closing  a  section 
of  Woodward  Avenue  and 
awarding  bid  for  the  demo- 
lition of  the  administration 
building  on  Coddington 
Street.

Concourse  began  with 
demolition  of  the  former 
Tanline  building  on  the 
Parkingway  to  make  way  for 
the  road  that  will  link  the 
Parkingway  to  Quincy  Cen- 
ter and  the  Southern  Artery 

Bruce  Tait,  president  of 
the  Police  Patrolmen's  Asso- 
ciation, said  his  union  would 
seek  expedited  arbitration 
unless  Chief  Robert  Crowley 
reversed  a  decision  narrow- 
ing the  window  for  vacation 
days. 

Their  request  was  turned 
down  in  Norfolk  Superior 
Court. 

The  City  Council  voted 
unanimously  to  approve  a 
four-year  extension  of  a  spe- 
cial permit  allowing  con- 
struction of  the  final  500 
units  of  the  1,000-unit  High 
Point  development  on 
Quarry  Street. 

Energy  conservation  im- 
provements got  underway  in 
the  number  of  municipal 
buildings  as  Quincy  became 
the  first  city  in  Massachu- 
setts to  take  advantage  of 
funding  available  through 
the  state's  new  Energy  Sav- 
ings Law. 

The  city  was  planning  to 
spend  some  $700,000  in 
community  preservation 
funds  on  historic  landmarks, 
neighborhood  housing  and 
recreation  projects,  starting 
with  271  Sea  St.,  the  Avalon 
at  Faxon  Park  West  and  the 
Turning  Mill  Estate  off  For- 
est Avenue.

Boston,  while  Boston's

"Boston  uses  it  for  its

Presidential  Primary  Feb.  5 


(Cont'd  From  Paf>e  I) 

states. 

However,  earlier  this  year, 
states  began  moving  up  their 
primary  election  dates,  with 
many  choosing  early 
January.  And  other  states 
began  competing  for  earlier 
and  earlier  dates. 

In  the  Feb.  5  primaries, 
voters  will  chose  either 
Democratic  or  Republic  party 
ballots  and  vote  their  choice 
for  president,  state  committee 
man,  state  committee  woman 
and  ward  committee. 

The  presidential  election 


will  be  held  Tuesday, 
November  4. 

City  Clerk  Joseph  Shea 
presented  the  election 
information  to  the  City 
Council,  noting  that  there 
would  be  no  referendum  on 
the  ballots. 

City  councillors  approved 
the  details  as  presented  and 
voted  the  2008  political 
calendar  for  the  presidential 
primary  election. 

Due  to  the  change  in  the 
primary  date.  Shea  said  that 
no  referendums  will  be  on 
the  February  ballot.  To  date, 
there  are  nine  petitions  in 


circulation  throughout  the 
state.  These  will  now  be  on 
fall  ballots. 

One  petition  seeks 
changes  in  the  law  regarding 
marihuana,  another  the  repeal 
of  the  income  tax  and  two 
petitions  seek  laws  for  the 
protection  of  greyhounds. 

Also  circulating  are 
petitions  for  Constitutional 
amendments.  One  proposed 
amendment  would  lower  the 
voting  age  to  16  years  old; 
another  would  end  the 
income  tax,  a  third  would 
revise  the  voter  initiative 
process.

The  following  Christmas 
Wish  was  omitted  from  last 
week's  Quincy  Sun  because 
the  student  w  as  absent  from

It  would  be  that  my

she  has  not  been  feeling  well 
lately.  1  also  w ish  that  every- 
one has  a  \  er\  Merry  Christ-

By  I.Al  KA(;RIFFIN 

Firelighters  at  Hngine  5  in 
West  Quinc\  are  molding 
their  muscles,  and  sha|Mng 
up  like  .Schwarzenegger, 
th.mks  to  the  top-of-the-lme 
exercise  etiuipment  that  the 
crew  \\i>n  recenth . 

I'he  new  iinil  "exercises 
e\er\  muscle  group  \ou  can 
think  o\."  according  to 
1  ngme  5  Captain  Peter 
\\  illiams. 

The  eijuipment.  a 
Paramount  FIT  5(MK)  multi- 
g>m  \ allied  at  $(i5(H),  was 
top  pn/e  in  a  contest 
de\  eloped  b\  Dave 
Aykanian.  owner  oi  PFE 
(Precision  Fitness  E.xercise) 
o\  Newton.  PFE  sponsored 
the  contest  with  Tht  Hcstcn 
Hinild. 

Crew  s  at  other  stations  are 
jealous,  according  to  Captain 
Williams  who  heard  other 
firefighters  sa\  of  the  contest. 
"1  wish  we  did  it."" 

Since  winning  the  contest, 
ihe  Engine  5  firefighters  ha\  e 
painted  a  new  workout  area 
in  the  basement  of  their 
Copeland  Street  station.  For 
extra  protection,  they "  ve  also 
raised  a  section  of  the  flood- 
prone  cement  floor. 

"It  was  a  team  effort,"" 
Williams  said  of  the  station's 
victory  over  dozens  of  fire 
departments  across  the  state. 
"The  whole  station  is  a  good 
bunch  of  guys,  motivated 
people.  Everybody  works 
here.  If  you're  not  prone  to 
get  up  and  go,  you'll  migrate 
to  another  station," 

Quincys  application 
included  an  essay  and  photos 
depicting  the  sorry  state  of 
the  stationhouse  gym 
equipment  and  the  even 
sadder  exaggerated  physical 
detenoration  of  one  longtime 
firefighter. 

When  PFl  judges  saw 
Engine  5"s  hand-me-down 
apparatus,  they  told 
Williams.  "Oh.  my  God.  You 
can"t  even  find  weights  like 
this." 

Contestants  were 

supposed  to  be  creative  and 


ha\e  fun.  according  to 
Williams  who  laughed  as  he 
explained  Fngine  5"s  entry 
which  includei.1  an  essa\  by 
I'lrelighler  Bill  .\rienti.  a 
picture  o^  the  station"s 
deflateil  weight  bag.  aiul  o\ 
the  before  and  after  physical 
condition  oi  firelighter  lid 
Naidone. 

The  first  photo  pi^itraxed 
a  \oung  Nardone.  When 
recruited  as  a  rookie  in  I  ^)S5. 
the  yi>ung  Nardone 
supposedly  had  the  rippling 
muscles  o'i  a  Dwayne  "The 
Rock""  .lohnson 

.\n  updated  photo  caught 
Nardone.  22  years  later, 
leaning  on  an  engine  w  ith  a 
double  chin,  soft  upper  amis 
and  foreamis.  and ajellx  belly 
supported  b\  blue 
suspenders. 

Both  photos  were 
distoiied  in  fun.  The  first  one. 
actuall).  was  digitall\ 
enhanced  with  Nardone" s 
head  super-imposed  on  a 
body-builder  image. 

When  the  contest 
sponsors  "came  in  to  verify 
the  pictures.""  Wilhams  was 
told.  "All  the  judges  laughed 
when  they  saw  our 
application." 

One  of  the  judges,  David 
Ramsey,  PFE's  Commercial 
Sales  Manager,  called  Engine 
5's  entry  "very  unqiure,  very 
well  put  together.  They  did  a 
good  job." 

Arienti's  essay  describes 
Nardone '  s  fictional  rescue  of 
a  woman  from  a  burning  third 
floor  tenement.  The  short 
narrative  states, 

"I  grab  her  lifeless  body 
with  my  two  hands  as  each 
muscle  in  my  body  strains.  It 
IS  now  more  than  ever  before 
(thatj  I  wish  I  had  a  proper 
gym  to  work  out  on." 

Yhe  entry  ends,  "By  the 
way.  if  we  win  the  contest, 
the  woman  lives." 

Within  the  essay,  Anenti 
describes  the  Engine  5  work- 
out area.  "For  a  fire  station  as 
important  as  ours,  our  gym  is 
pathetic.  A  couple  of  free 
weights,  an  old  broken  bench.

Captain  Williams  said 
Fngine  5  w  ith  I  .firefighters 
on  l\)ur  shifts,  covers  West 
Quincy.  the  Fxpressway  and 
Ihe  Blue  Mills  with  roughly 
six  calls  a  day.  '"Were  the 
second  busiest  engine 
company  in  the  city."" 

In  fact.  Williams  was 
interrupted  because  fjigine 
5  responded  to  a  fire  call 
midway  through  his 
interview. 

While  the  contest 
encouraged  a  light  approach, 
physical  fitness  is  of  major 
impi>rtance  for  firefighters 
who  must  meet  stringent 
physical  conditions  when 
hired  but  are  never  tested 
again. 

Fitness  has  become  a 
major  topic  in  recent  months, 
according  to  Williams  who 
noted  that  Boston  "s  Mayor 
Thomas  Menino  is 
addressing  the  issue. 

"Fitness  has  got  to  be  a 
big  part  of  their  job,"  said 
Wilhams  of  all  firefighters 
who  are  generally  self- 
motivated,  "This  job  is  all 
about  being  strong,  lifting 
people,  moving  hoses, 
carrying  ladders." 

Smaller  communities 
often  design  gyms  in  their 
firehouses  and  provide 
workout  equipment  for 
firefighters,  according  to 
Williams  who  said  that  cities 
generally  don't  finances  such 
expenses.  As  a  result, 
firefighters  bring  in  old 
equipment  from  home. 

That's  why  the  contest 
was  especially  important, 
said  Williams.  "We  want  to 
publicly  thank  them  for  what 
they've  done." 

PFI  owner  Aykanian  said 
they've  sponsored  the  same 
contest  for  high  school 
students  and  police 
departments  across  the  state, 
"Out  ofall  the  contests,  we've 
had,  we  had  the  most 
response  from  (firefighters), 
a  lot  of  communities.  They're 
in  need  of  the  equipment."

FIRE   SAFETY 

by  Captain  Tom  Lyons 

Fire  Prevention  Bureau 
Quincy  Fire  Department 


Roger's  Story 


Here  is  an  c-niail  1  re- 
ceived from  a  contractor  that 
1  frequently  work  with  on 
fire  prevention  issues. 

He  told  me  this  story, 
which  he  conveyed  in  writ- 
ing to  friends  and  loved  ones; 
and  1  asked  if  he  would  send 
me  a  copy.  The  e-mail  speaks 
for  it.self. 

"Good  morning!  I  want 
to  share  a  quick  personal 
story  with  you,  having  to  do 
with  my  carbon  monoxide 
detector  in  my  home. 

Last  February  I  got  home 
from  work  around  6  p.m.  My 
wife  was  already  home  and 
as  she  began  dinner  as  she 
normally  does,  she  turned  up 
the  heat,  just  another  aver- 
age day. 

While  doing  so  she  men- 
tioned one  small  detail  to  me. 
she  told  me  of  a  funny  sound 
coming  from  our  bedroom 
area.  I  went  to  check  it  out 
and  noticed  the  carbon  mon- 
oxide detector  that  I  had  in- 
stalled approximately  10 
years  ago  was  finally  mak- 
ing a  sound. 

My  first  reaction  was  then 
that  there  must  be  something 


wrong  with  ditti  tor.  alter 
(ill.  It  lui.s  hfcn  plugged  in  for 
10  years  without  tnaking  ii 
sound.  I  then  cleaned  it  up. 
plugged  it  back  in  and  con- 
tinued a  normal  evening  at 
home. 

Approximately  one  hour 
later,  the  detector  started  to 
alarm  again.  It  then  oc- 
curred to  me  that  we  might 
have  a  carbon  monoxide  leak 
within  the  home.  Realizing 
that  carbon  monoxide  is 
odorless  and  virtually  unde- 
tectable, I  decided  to  call  the 
gas  company. 

They  responded  quickly, 
equipped  with  carbon  mon- 
oxide detection,  and  deter- 
mined that  the  gas -fired  fur- 
ruice  was  emitting  fumes  into 
our  home.  After  further  in- 
vestigation they  found  the 
chimney  was  clogged  with 
pine  needles,  leave,  etc.  60 
years  of  buildup.  I  am  em- 
barrassed to  say  that  in  the 
24  years  I  have  lived  in  this 
house.  I  never  once  thought 
to  clean  out  the  chimney. 

In  closing,  the  lessons 
learned  here  are:  Install  car- 
bon nummide  detectors  in 


voiir  home,  periodii  iillx 
clean  xoiin  luinnex.  test  your 
carbon  monoxide  detectors. 
ev(i(  uate  xour  home  when 
the  detector  sounds  and  call 
xour  local  ji re  department. 

This  little  story  is  impor- 
tant to  me  where  I  now  real- 
ize if  we  did  not  have  carbon 
mtmoxide  detectors  in  our 
home:  we  would  have  gone 
to  bed  that  evening  in  a  home 
filled  with  carbon  monoxide. 
I  shutter  to  think  what  the 
outcome  would  then  have 
been.' " 

I  applaud  this  gentleman 
for  having  brought  this  story 
to  others'  attention,  while  1 
thank  him  now  for  allowing 
me  to  do  so  as  well. 

If  you  suspect  that  there 
IS  a  carbon  mono.xide  e.xpo- 
sure  within  your  home,  get 
out  of  the  house  and  get  fresh 
air  immediately.  Call  the  fire 
department  from  a 
neighbor's  house  and  if  you 
have  symptoms  of  exposure, 
seek  medical  help  immedi- 
ately. You  might  pass  thi> 
story  onto  others  as  well. 

Thank  You

What  Goes  Up. 
Musi  Come  Down 

While  ue  (.e.ebratf  the 
Chnstmas  hol;da\  this 
v^eek.  most  oi  us  bn"ers 
are  alread\  thinking  about 
the  chore  cf  remo\  ing  and 
storing  outdoor  and  indoor 
decorations.  Here  are  some 
safe  and  cffect:\e  tips  for 
taking  down  all  those  hoii- 
da\  decorations  \ou  so 
painstaJcingly  put  up 

— I'se  a  sturd\  ladder 
\xhether  working  indoors  or 
outdoors,  vk-.th  a  helper  to 
hold  1*  stead) 

— Always  ^sc  caution 
when  \xorking  around  elec- 
tncity. 

— Change  any  bumt-out 
bulbs  before  taking  down 
light  strings,  and  secure 
remaining  replacement 

bulbs  in  their  small  plastic 
bags  near  the  end  of  each 
stnng. 

— Puning  a  light  stnng 
back  onto  the  same  plastic 
card  from  which  it  came 
from  the  store  can  be  mad- 
dening. Instead,  wrap  the 
stnng  around  a  sjsare  piece 
of  cardboard.  To  keep  them 
from  sliding  off.  cut  small 
notches  along  each  side  of 
the  cardboard  and  slip  the 
wires  into  the  notches  as  you 
wind  on  the  stnng. 

— Store  outdoor  and 
indoor  lights  m  separate. 
weather-resistant  boxes,  and 
mark  each  box  clearly. 

— To  keep  from  having  to 
hunt  down  extension  cords 


next  year,  pack  extension 
cords  with  their  correspond- 
ing light  sets.  Purchase  any 
additional  cords  that  you 
will  need  now.  dunng  the 
after-Chnstmas  sales. 

— Lawn  decorations 

should  also  be  packed  in 
clearly  marked,  weather- 
resistant  boxes  I. see-through 
plastic  storage  boxes  are  ide- 
al). Place  newspaper  or 
biodegradable  packing 

peanuts  between  items  to 
prevent  scratches  and  dings. 
— Fully  deflate  mllatable 
lawn  decorations,  coil  teth- 
enng  ropes  and  tie  off  to  pre- 
\ent  tangles,  and  collect  and 
tape  togeLher  anchonng 
stakes  so  they  can  be  found 
easily  next  year. 

— Designate  a  spot  in  the 
garage,  artic  or  basement  to 
store  all  holiday  decorations 
together,  and  place  them  so 
that  the  biggest  items  come 
out  first  (such  as  the  tree, 
lights  and  lawn  decorations  i 
and  the  smaller  tnmming 
Items  come  out  last. 

Taking  down  holiday  dec- 
orations IS  never  going  to  be 
an  absolute  breeze,  but  stor- 
mg  them  properly  will  mini- 
mize headaches  next  year 
and  beyond.

Tips  To  Keep  Your  Home  Properly  Humidified 


(NAPS)  -  According  to 
the  U.S.  Environmental 
Protection  Agency,  proper 
humidification  is  vital  to  both 
comfort  and  health.  During 
cold  weather,  the  ideal  level 
of  humidity  in  the  home 
should  be  between  25  and  40 
percent,  compared  to  less 
than  60  percent  in  hot 
weather.  That  is  because 
humid    air    holds    more 


moisture,  making  your  feel 
warmer.  If  the  humidity 
levels  in  the  home  are  less 
than  that,  your  skin  and  nasal 
tissues  can  become  damaged 
and  heating  efficiency  is 
reduced. 

Adding  additional 
moisture  to  your  home  can 
protect  your  house  and  its 
contents  while  creating  a 


healthy,  more  comfortable 
and  energy-efficient 
environment.  Fortunately, 
the  heating,  ventilating  and 
air-conditioning  industry 
offers  a  variety  of  products 
to  increase  home  humidity 
and  return  the  moisture  it 
desjjerately  needs.

humidifier   is    a    simple

current  and  potential 
homeowners  are  asking 
themselves  the  question  oi 
what  to  do  next  in  regard  to

First-Tinu'  Honicbuyers 

The  biggest  concerns  tor 
tirst-time  homebuyers  right 
now  are  fluctuating  interest 
rates  as  well  as  home  values. 
However,  buying  a  home 
with  a  fixed-rate  lo.m  now 
will  ensure  that  luture  rises 
in  interest  rates  will  iu>t 
impact  your  monthlv 
payment.  In  aildition, 
because  ot  current  market 
conditions,  many  first-time 
homebuyers  have  a  large 
inventory  of  hi>nies  from 
which  to  choose.  Prices  in 
many  markets  have  stabilized 
or  nu)ved  off  their  highs  over 
the  past  year  as  demand  has 
softened,  so  your  dollars 
could  go  much  farther  than 
they  ha\e  m  the  past. 

If  you  decide  to  move 
forward  with  the  search  for 
your  first  home,  consider 
getting  preapproved  for  a 
mortgage.  Becoming 
preapproved  will  give  you  a 
much  better  idea  of  your 
buying  powers  as  well  as 
reassure  home  .sellers  that  you 
are  a  senous  buyer. 


Existing  HomeoHners 

If  you  are  a  homeowner 
with  an  adjustable-rate 
mortgage  (.ARM),  hybrid 
ARM  or  interest-onlv 
mortgage,  now  is  a  good  time 
to  consider  refinancing  into 
a  fixed-rate  loan.  H\en  if  the

Refinancing  might  be  the 
solution  to  your  problem. 

Homeowners  refinance 
for  a  \ariety  of  reasons, 
including  taking  cash  out  of 
their  home's  equity  to  make 
improvements,  consolidating 
debt  and  to  obtain  a  more 
favorable  interest  rate. 
However,  many  .Amencans 
are  now  refinancing 
pnmarily  to  move  from  an 
adjustable-rate  to  a 
predictable,  fixed-rate 
mortgage  to  avoid  future 
interest  rate  adjustments. 

"There  are  many  factors 
to  consider  when  refinancing

your  particular  situation."

A  Job  Well  Done 

On  Wednesday,  Dec.  12,  at  approximately  5  p.m.. 
Officer  Steven  Kelly  was  dispatched  to  Wal-Mart  to  meet 
with  store  security,  which  were  holding  a  female  sus- 
pect for  stealing  a  wallet.  They  were  al-so  detaining  a 
male,  who  was  the  boyfriend  of  the  suspect  and  owner 
of  the  car  they  arrived  in. 

Store  security  stated  they 
were  watching  the  female 
suspect,  who  was  roaming 
the  store  asking  shoppers  for 
money,  even  asking  one  of 
the  plain  clothes  security 


LT.  DAN  MINTON 


officers.  They  observed  her 
as  she  left  the  store  briefly 
and  walked  to  a  car  parked 
far  away  from  the  entrance, 
then  walk  back  into  the 
store. 

Security  told  Officer 
Kelly  that  a  female  customer  then  approached  them  and 
stated  that  her  "Coach"  brand  wallet  had  been  stolen 
from  her  carriage,  so  they  approached  the  female  sus- 
pect and  brought  her  to  the  security  office. 

Officer  Kelly  interviewed  the  victim  and  learned  that 
she  was  shopping  in  the  store  with  her  two-year-old 
daughter  sitting  in  the  basket  section  of  the  car  and  her 
wallet  in  the  seat  section,  when  she  was  approached  by 
a  female  asking  for  money  to  help  pay  for  her  subscrip- 
tion. The  victim  said  she  knew  the  suspect  was  "on  some- 
thing" but  decided  to  help  her. 

They  walked  over  to  the  Wal-Mart  in-store  pharmacy 
and  the  suspect  then  spoke  to  the  pharmacist,  who  told 
the  suspect  he  could  not  fill  the  prescription.  The  victim 
said  she  was  cleaning  her  daughter's  hands  and  when 
she  looked  up,  the  suspect  was  walking  briskly  toward 
the  exit  door.  The  victim  looked  to  where  he  wallet  was 
and  it  was  gone! 

The  victim  believed  the  suspect  had  taken  the  wallet 
because  no  one  else  was  in  the  immediate  vicinity.  The 
victim  then  contacted  security  and  as  she  was  telling 
them  the  story,  the  suspect  returned  to  the  store,  where 
she  was  apprehended  by  security. 

Officer  Kelly  questioned  the  suspect  about  her  be- 
havior. She  said  she  was  returning  a  bracelet  and  shop- 
ping with  a  friend  and  couldn't  find  him,  so  she  left  the 
store  to  see  if  he  was  in  his  car.  but  he  was  not.  so  she 
returned  to  the  store.  Officer  Kelly  then  went  to  the  car 
and  looked  inside,  but  did  not  observe  anything  suspi- 
cious. 

When  Officer  Kelly  returned,  a  Wal-Mart  employee 
told  Officer  Kelly  that  the  suspect  asked  to  use  the  bath- 
room so  she  went  in  with  her  and  observed  the  suspect 
throw  a  pair  of  glasses,  with  a  Wal-Mart  price  tag  at- 
tached, in  a  trash  barrel.  The  employee  reached  into  the 
barrel  and  retrieved  the  glasses  as  evidence. 

Office  Kelly  placed  the  suspect  under  arrest  for  shop- 
lifting and  transported  to  the  station.  The  officer  then 
reviewed  the  security  videotapes,  which  showed  the  sus- 
pect walking  out  the  door  of  Wal-Mart  with  a  wallet  in 
her  hand,  then  meets  up  with  a  man,  give  him  the  wallet 
and  then  go  to  the  car  parked  across  the  parking  lot. 
Although  the  wallet,  with  $100  inside,  along  with  credit 
cards,  etc.,  was  not  found. 

Officer  Kelly  added  the  charge  of  larceny  over  $250 
(wallet  and  contents)  against  the  50-year-old  Pembroke 
resident. 

In  this  case,  prevention  was  the  key  to  becoming  a 
victim.  The  victim  recognized  the  suspect  was  under 
the  influence  of  drugs,  yet  she  exposed  herself,  her 
daughter  and  her  property  to  the  suspect  by  trying  to 
help  her.  Being  a  Good  Samaritan  is  always  commend- 
able, however,  if  you  know  that  something  is  wrong  or 
something  doesn't  feel  right,  do  not  put  yourself  at  risk: 
walk  away  and  report  the  suspicious  activity  to  the  po- 
lice. 

A  second  concern  is  leaving  your  wallet  sitting  in  the 
carriage  for  anyone  to  take.  When  shopping,  to  be  able 
to  keep  focused  on  your  child  or  children  and  shop  at 
the  same  time  is  not  easy.  By  taking  only  what  you  need 
-  a  credit  card,  cash  and  identification  in  a  pocket  -  will 
reduce  your  stress  and  as  well  as  your  chance  of  becom- 
ing a  victim. 

Nice  Work!

Presidents  Poised 
To  Make  Some  Noise 


By  SEAN  BRKNNAN 

The  Quincy  Presidents 
varsity  girls"  basketball  team 
is  lined  up  this  winter  to  do 
some  serious  damage  in 
Atlantic  Coast  League  play. 

The  Presidents  return  tour 
starters  from  last  year's  1 1 
1 1  team,  including  senior 
captains  Mcagan  Tobin 
(guard)  and  Mary bethTorpey 
(guard),  senior  Elizabeth 
BcK'k  (center)  and  sophomore 
Leslie  Campbell  (forward). 

Quincy  used  a  late-season 
run  last  season  to  gain  a  spot 
in  the  Division  II  South 
Sectionals  as  the  #20  seed. 
The  Presidents  defeated 
Silver  Lake  HS,  46-4 1,  in  a 
preliminary  round  game 
before  losing  to  #4  Hingham 
HS,  55-41  in  the  first  round. 

"This  year's  team  is  a 
senior-laden  squad,"  said 
headcoach  Jeff  Bretsch.  "We 
have  seven  seniors  on  the 
team,  including  Tobin, 
Torpey  and  Bock  who  were 
all  starters  for  us  last  season. 

"Our  biggest  strength  this 
season  will  be  the  experience 
and  veteran  leadership  that 
these  players  and  some  of 
our  younger  players  who 
were  with  us  last  year  will 
bring  to  the  court." 

Besides  Tobin,  Torpey 
and  Bock,  the  Presidents  have 
seniors  Julie  Kisielius 
(guard),  Kathryn  Carella 
(forward),  Krystin  Newsom 
(forward)  and  Kerri  Ryan 
(center)  on  the  roster.  Juniors 
Elisa  Lam  (guard),  Katie 
Chernicki  (forward)  and 
Deanna  Hutchins  (forward) 
join  sophomores  Campbell 
and  Colleen  Tobin  (forward) 
and  freshman  Kori  Sorensen 
(guard)  as  underclassmen 
whom  should  be  counted  on 
for  major  in'nutes  and 
contributions  as  the  .season 
progresses. 

"It  should  be 

advantageous  for  us  that  we 
have  so  many  players  with 


GIRLS'  BASKETBALL 


game  experience,"  added 
Bretsch.  "Of  our  five  starters, 
all  have  at  least  two  years  of 
experience,  and  that  should 
help  form  some  type  of  team 
success." 

In  Tobin  and  Torpey, 
Bretsch  has  two  players  who 
have  only  gotten  better  over 
their  four  years  at  Quincy 
High  School,  but  he  also 
predicts  big  things  for  his 
other  seniors  and 
underclassmen. 

"Mary be ih  had  a  breakout 
year  for  us  last  season  and  I 
expect  her  to  be  even  better 
this  season,"  he  said.  "And 
Tobin  is  our  best  shooter.  But 
Carella  is  as  good  a  six  man 
coming  off  the  bench,  as  you 
will  find. 

"Colleen  Tobin,  our  best 
jayvee  player  from  last 
season,  should  also  give  us 
some  big  contributions  this 
year  and  freshman  Kori 
Sorensen  is  an  exciting 
player." 

With  the  veteran 
leadership  that  the  seven 
seniors  supply,  and  the  talent 
of  the  underclassmen, 
Quincy  is  looking  forward  to 
getting  back  into  post-season 
play. 

"Our  team  goal  this  year 
is  to  make  a  deep  run  into  the 
state  tournament,"  said 
Bretsch.  "We  have  high 
hopes  for  a  good  \ear.  and 
with  four  of  our  starters  back 
and  the  experience  that 
players  like  Lam,  Chemicki. 
Tobin  and  Sorensen  will  gam 
as  the  season  moves  along, 
we  should  be  in  a  good 
position  at  the  end  oi  the 
year." 

Quincy.  w  hich  opened  the 
season  w  ith  tw  o  straight  non- 
league  road  games  agamst 
Hanover  and  Norwell  High 
Schools,  will  not  play  a  home 
game  until  alter  the  New  \'ear 
(Jan.  8  vs.  Whitman-Hanson 


HS),  but  Bretsch  sees  that 
schedule  as  a  chance  to  gage 
what  his  team  is  made  of  in 
the  early  goings. 

"Not  playing  a  home  game 
until  three  weeks  into  the 
season  should  give  us  a  better 
idea  of  what  kind  of  team  we 
will  have  once  we  get  into 
league  play,  and  that  is  not  a 
bad  thing." 

The  Presidents  (  1-1 ) 
earned  their  first  victory  of 
the  season  on  Dec.  19  with  a 
grind-it-out  42-.'^6  decision 
over  Norwell  HS. 

Torpey  finished  the  game 
with  a  team-high  19  points 
and  eight  steals,  and  Meagan 
Tobin  and  Campbell  added 
eight  points  apiece  for  the 
visiting  Presidents. 

The  victory  over  the 
Clippers  washed  away  the 
bad  taste  of  the  team's 
opening  season  loss  to 
Hanover  HS.  Quincy  lost  to 
Hanover  56-45  on  Dec.  14. 

"We  came  out  jittery  in 
the  first-half  against 
Hanover."  said  Bretsch.  "But 
even  after  committing  13 
turnovers  in  the  opening  half, 
we  were  still  in  it  at  the  end. 

".Aftergivinguptoomany 
free  points  on  fouls  at  the 
start  by  being  to  enthusiastic 
on  defense,  we  settled  into  a 
rhythm  and  made  it  a  very 
close  game." 

Torpey  led  all  President 
scorers  with  19  points  i5-5 
from  the  chanty  stripe)  and 
M.  Tobin  chipped  in  with  18 
points  ( including  four  three- 
pointers ). 

Quincv,  who  played 
against  Nauset  HS  on  Dec. 
21  in  their  first  .ACL  game, 
will  be  piirticipating  in  the 
Dedham  Basketball  Holiday 
Tournament  Dec.  27-28. 
before  getting  back  into 
league  play  on  Jan.  2  on  the 
road  \  ersus  Plymouth  Nonh 
HS. 


North  Quincy  Girls  Start  0-3 


The  Red  Raiders  are  off 
to  a  0-3  start  this  season  as 
they  look  to  repeat  as  Atlantic 
Coast  League  North  Division 
champions. 

North  Quincy  dropped  a 
61-44  non-league  decisii>n 
against  Wellesley  High 
School  on  Dec.  12,  and  was 
beaten  by  defending  co- 
champs  of  the  North 
Division.  Whitman-Hanson 
HS,  62-53,  on  Dec.  18. 

In  theirgame  against  ACL

Group  Classes 
vs.  Machines 

Q.When  I  first  joined 
•  my  gym,  I  was 
shown  how  to  use  the  exer- 
cise machines  and  given  a 
routine.  I  tried  that  routine 
about  four  times,  but  also 
began  going  to  three  group 
exercise  classes:  yoga,  boot 
camp  and  cycling.  I  enjoy 
the  classes  much  more 
than  the    '       exercise 

machines,  and  find  m\sflf 
not  doing  the  machines  at 
all.  Ls  it  all  right  to  do  just 
the  group  classes,  or  do  I 
also  need  to  exercise  on  the 
machines? 

A,  Nfdsi  grcup  fxciciNe 
•  L  lapses  mcludf  main 
o(  the  sainc"  tdmiats  a^  exer- 
cise prt'e'ains  coniplelcd  on 
exercise  iiuichines.  Cardui- 
\ascular.  strenijlh  and  tlexi- 
bilit\  trainme  are  ihe  iiiain 
staples  1)1  many  croup  exer- 
cise classes.  ITie  insiaictor. 
grciup  atmosphere  and. 
when  applicable,  the  music 
often  make  group  exercise 
classes  appealing  and  tun. 

Classes  such  as  boot  camp 
can  be  exciting  due  to  the 
intensity  and  variety  of  exer- 
cises. Yoga  is  a  class  that  can 
be  challenging  while  help- 
ing to  improve  balance,  flex- 
ibility and  body  awareness. 
Group  cycling  classes  test 
your  cardiovascular  and 
muscular  endurance. 

When  deciding  what  type 
of  classes  or  exercises  will 
help  you  move  closer  to  your 
fitness  goals,  it  is  important 
to  first  establish  those  goals, 
then  try  out  different  work- 
outs and  find  something  you 
will  enjoy. 

Setting  fitness  goals 
beyond  the  normal  "lose 
weight"  or  "tone-up"  can 
help  guide  you  to  the  type  of 


classes  or  exercises  that 
need  to  be  included  in  your 
exercise  program.  If  you 
want  to  strengthen  your  total 
body  and  improve  flexibili- 
ty, clas.ses  that  arc  strictly 
cardiovascular  with  no  other 
type  of  strength  or  flexibility 
exerci.ses  would  not  help 
you  reach  those  goals.  In 
that  instance,  you  would 
need  to  find  another  class 
that  included  strength  train- 
ing or  complete  your  routine 
on  the  exercise  machines.  It 
miL'ht  mean  having  a  mix 
between  group  classes  and 
exercise  machines. 

Try  different  workouts. 
Don't  be  afraid  to  get  out- 
side your  box  and  tr\  a 
ilaiice,  pilales  or  aquatics 
class.  Each  can  add  some- 
thing ditTerent  to  your  exer- 
cise routine.  .A.lso.  don't 
totally  abandon  your  exer- 
cise routine  on  the 
machines.  That  option  can 
be  there  when  there  is  no 
class  available  or  when  you 
need  a  change  in  pace. 

Find  a  class  you  enjoy.  If 
you  enjoy  what  you're 
doing,  you're  more  likely  to 
stick  with  it  week  after 
week.  Remember  that 
although  a  class  is  enjoy- 
able, you  also  want  to  see 
results  for  all  your  hard 
work.  Keep  your  fitness 
goals  foremost  in  your  mind. 
There  is  no  one-size-fils- 
all  approach  to  fitness, 
which  is  why  there  are  so 
many  options  available  to 
help  you  get  reach  and  main- 
tain your  fitness  goals.

SENIOR  TOOTH  LOSS'  LINK  WITH  DEMENTIA 

in  providing  the  most  com- 
prehensive CiU"e  possible  for 
all  members  of  vour  familv  in 


Recent  research  links  eld- 
erly tooth  loss  with  more 
than  a  three-fold  greater  risk 
for  memory  problems  and 
dementia.  This  may  best  be 
explained  by  the  possibility 
that  people  with  cognitive 
impairment  take  worse  care 
of  their  teeth.  On  the  other 
hand,  it  is  also  possible  that 
dental  di.sease  cau.ses  pro- 
longed inflammation  and  m- 
fection  in  the  mouth,  which 
may  alter  some  factors  in  the 
blood  that  could  cause  prob- 
lems in  the  brain.  In  addition, 
lost  teeth  may  lead  to  altered 
diets,  which  could  lead  to 
vitamin  deficiencies  and 
other  problems  that  could 
affect  the  brain.  Until  the 
exact  cause  and  effect  are 
determined,  it  certainly  could 
not  hurt  to  see  that  elderly 
individuals  receive  proper 
dental  care. 

Our  experienced  dental 
and  support  staff  takes  pride 


a  relaxed,  comfortable  set- 
ting. When  you  come  to  visit 
us  at  44  Greenleaf  Street,  you 
can  expect  us  to  integrate  the 
newest  dental  techniques  w  ith 
an  educational  approach  to 
oral  health.  We  believe  a  more 
knowledgeable  patient  is 
more  comfortable  during  den- 
tal procedures  and  a  more  ac- 
tive participant  is  a  more  ac- 
tive participant  in  their  ongo- 
ing care.  Call  us  at  617-479- 
6220  for  an  appointment.  We 
offer  the  services  of  anesthe- 
siology with  a  fully  trained 
and  qualified  anesthesiolo- 
gist. Visit  us  on  the  web  at 
www.quincydentist.com. 

P.S.  Perhaps  the  best  rea- 
son to  address  dental  con- 
cerns as  we  age  is  to  be  sure 
that  we  can  eat  a  well-bal- 
anced diet  without  the  restric- 
tions of  poor  oral  health. 


10  Tips  For  A  Healthy  2008 


Harvard  Vanguard  Medi- 
cal As.sociates  ofers  the  fol- 
lowing  tips   for  staying 

healthy  in  2008. 

Safeguard  Your  Skin 

Just  because  summer  is 
gone  doesn't  mean  your  sun- 
screen should  go  on  vaca- 
tion. One  in  five  Americans 
will  develop  skin  cancer  in 
the  course  of  a  lifetime,  and 
the  risk  is  not  limited  to 
warmer  months.  Use  sun- 
screen with  at  least  15  SPF 
whenever  you  are  outside, 
especially  lor  winter  snow 
sports  w  here  the  sun  can  cre- 
ate a  glare,  increasing  the 
risk  ol  sunburn. 

Fake  len

to  \  our  nnitine  e\  cry  day  can

ctcr  and  taking  an  alternooii

shoot  Wn  1  ().()()()  steps  a  da\. 
Raising  your  heart  rate  re- 
lanes  stress,  increases  bone 
ilensiiy  and  strengthens  \  our 
heart  and  lungs. 

Check  \<)ur  Health 
Report  Card 

As  you  reach  certain  age 
milestones,  you  should  be 
receiving  routine  diagnostic 
and  screening  tests.  For  ex- 
ample, men  should  have 
yearly  prostate  exams  after 
reaching  age  50  or  beginning 
at  age  45  for  high-risk  groups 
such  as  African  Americans 
and  those  with  a  family  his- 
tory. Women  with  an  average 
risk  of  breast  cancer  are  rec- 
ommended to  get  annual 
mammograms  at  age  40. 
Appropriate  preventive 
screening  is  an  important 
way  to  stay  healthy  and 
avoid  issues  down  the  road. 


Keep  it  Colorful 

Challenge  your  family  to 
eat  five  servings  of  fruits  and 
vegetables  per  day,  which 
contain  essential  vitamins, 
minerals,  and  fiber  that  may 
help  protect  them  from 
chronic  disea.ses.  Try  intro- 
ducing a  healthy  snack  alter- 
native into  your  usual  fam- 
ily cuisine  each  week,  and 
encourage  your  kids  to  build 
a  rainbow  on  their  plate  with 
different  colored  vegetables. 

Know  Your  Numbers 

Learn  to  calculate  your 
BMI — body  mass  index,  a 
number  based  on  your 
weight  and  height  that  is  a 
reliable  indicator  of  bod\  fat- 
ness lor  most  people.  BMI  is 
used  to  screen  for  weight  cat- 
egories that  may  lead  to 
health  pri^hlems.  If  \(>ur 
B.Ml  is  oxer  the  recom- 
mended limits,  map  a  plan 
with  your  docUn-  on  hov\  to 
get  into  a  healthier  /one.

Protect  Your  Head 

Have  everyone  in  your 
family  (including  adults!) 
wear  helmets  appropriate  for 
the  activity  they  are  enjoy- 
ing whether  it's  biking, 
skateboarding  or 

rollerblading.  Wearing  a  hel- 
met can  reduce  the  risk  of 
head  injury  by  85  percent. 
Helmets  are  recommended 
for  winter  sports  as  well,  so 
don't  leave  them  behind 
when  skiing,  snowboarding, 
or  ice  skating. 

Relax 

Forty-three  percent  of  all 
adults  suffer  adverse  health 
effects  from  stress,  which 
can  increase  your  risk  of  de-

pression  and  heart  disease. 
Try  to  identify  triggers  that 
you  can  control  or  avoid,  and 
realize  your  limitations  when 
it  comes  to  taking  on  new 
things.  After  leaving  the  of- 
fice, take  some  time  to  de- 
compress with  a  relaxing  ac- 
tivity to  avoid  bringing  un- 
necessary stress  home. 
Foster  Healthy 
Relationships 
Reconnect  with  your  so- 
cial network;  studies  show 
that  your  friends  and  loved 
ones  impact  your  health 
more  than  you  think.  Laugh- 
ter releases  endorphins  in- 
side the  body  that  strengthen 
the  immune  system,  and 
your  social  ties  help  to  rein- 
force healthy  behavior 
amcMig  peers.  For  your  next 
friendly  gathering,  try  host- 
ing a  healthy  pot  luck  dinner 
challenge. 
Be  Good  to  Your  Cums 


If  you  brush  but  don't 
floss,  you  are  only  cleaning 
60  percent  of  your  teeth's 
surfaces.  Improving  your 
periodontal  health  by  floss- 
ing can  help  preserve  your 
oral  health  for  years  to 
come — you  only  have  to 
floss  the  ones  you  want  to 
keep! 

Seek  Sweet  Dreams 
Aim  for  eight  hours  of  re- 
juvenating sleep  each  night. 
Start  by  avoiding  caffeinated 
beverages  and  heavy 
exericise  late  in  the  day. 
Take  the  TV  out  of  your  bed- 
room, which  will  help  to 
condition  yi»ur  body  and 
mind  that  the  bed  is  for  sleep- 
ing only.  If  sleep  is  cut  short, 
the  body  doesn't  ha\e  time 
to  complete  all  of  the  phases 
needed  for  muscle  repair, 
memory  consolidation,  and 
release  of  honnones  regulat- 
ing growth  and  appetite.

Mary  Lou  England 

Receives  Award  At 

McLean  Hospital 


Quincy  resident  Mary 
Lou  England  recently  earned 
McLean  Hospital's  highest 
honor — the  Vision  of  Excel- 
lence Award — for  her  con- 
summate dedication  to 
the  care  of  the  hospital's  pa- 
tients. 

As  a  nurse  in  the 
hospital's  Schizophrenia  and 
Bipolar  Disorder  Program 
for  nearly  20  years,  supervi- 
sors and  colleagues  applaud 
England  for  her  unwavering 
commitment  to  caring  for 
others. 

"Mary  Lou  is  well  deserv- 
ing of  this  award,"  said 
Catherine  Coakley,  MS,  RN, 
nurse  director  of  the  unit. 
"She's  creative  and  incred- 
ibly enthusiastic  and  she's  a 
positive  role  model  and  a 
great  educator." 

Recently,  England  had 
had  the  opportunity  to  delve 
into  new  areas  of  nursing — 
including  research.  "I  had  a 
goal  for  my  20-year  mark,  to 
be  teaching  and  doing  re- 
search and  I'm  doing  both. 


in  addition  to  my  clinical 
role,  so  I'm  fortunate,"  said 
England.  "McLean  really 
supports  opportunities  for 
nurses  to  expand  their  role." 

After  obtaining  a  nursing 
degree  from  the  State  Uni- 
versity of  New  York  at 
Brockport,  and  at  the  behest 
of  a  psychiatric  nursing  in- 
structor, England  joined  the 
staff  of  McLean,  a  Harvard 
Medical  School  affiliate.  She 
cannot  imagine  having  a  ca- 
reer anywhere  else. 

"Even  after  20  years  I'm 
still  challenged  and  learning. 
It  is  exciting.  I  still  feel  re- 
freshed," said  England.  "A 
few  years  ago  while  working 
with  a  patient  that  needed 
extra  care,  I  got  to  know  the 
family.  When  the  patient  got 
better,  the  mom  approached 
me,  took  my  hands — she  had 
tears  in  her  eyes — and  said, 
'This  is  what  you  should  be 
doing.'  That  was  a  decisive 
factor  for  me.  I  knew  I  was 
in  the  right  place."

The  New  Year  is  a  time  of  challenge 
to  our  younger  citizens  who  look  upon 
the  year  ahead  and  all  the  years  to 
follow  as  a  time  to  build  the  founda- 
tion on  which  their  future  lives  will 
be  determined  . . .  For  those  in  their 
middle-years  the  New  Year  presents 
still  another  opportunity  to  set  those,  whom  they  love  so 
dearly,  upon  the  course  which  will  determine  their  future 
happiness  and  the  fulfillment  of  their  hopes  and  dreams. . . 
And  to  the  elderly  to  whom  the  New  Year  can  be  a  melan- 
choly time  when  they  recall  those  dear  ones  who  are  no 
longer  with  us  and  whose  loss  increases  our  sorrow  with  each 
passing  year. . . 

And  so  the  New  Year  truly  means  different  things  to 
everyone  -  yet  w  ith  all  the  varying  emotions  the  one  constant, 
shared  and  binding  feeling ...  is  the  feeling  of  hope . . .  that 
with  God's  help  our  lives  and  the  lives  of  those  whom  we  love 
will  be  happier  and  more  useful  lives  in  2008. . . 
Ring  out  the  old  -  ring  in  the  new 
HAPPY  NEW  YEAR  EVERYONE . . .
