QUINCY TROOP 42 Boy Scouts and leaders display the Na-
tional 9/11 Flag which thej carried in the 58th annual Quincy
Flag Day Parade. The 32-foot American flag was partially de-
stroyed when the Twin Towers collapsed in New York on Sept.
11, 2001. The flag was stitched back together over the 9/11
Anniversary last year by residents of Greensburg, Kansas, a
town 95 percent destroyed by an EF-5 Tornado in 2007. Troop
42 has made some minor repairs to the stitching and will escort
the flag on the field at Fenway Park for the National Anthem

before the Red Sox game against the Seattle Mariners Friday
night, July 3. Julia Mudloff coordinated the Quincy display.
She is a former firefighter/paramedic and volunteer with New
York Says Thank You Foundation which is coordinating Na-
tional 9/11 Flag Tour this summer. Boy Scouts from around
the country are displaying the historic flag at public gathering
places nationwide. Quincy Boy Scouts also helped display the
flag outside the Crane Library on Flag Day, June 14.

Council Narrowly Rejects Noise Limits

City Councillors Monday
rejected a revised anti-noise
ordinance by a 4-5 vote
in their final action before
summer recess.

Monday's vote ended
months of acrimonious de-
bate over acceptable levels
of noise and a noise ordi-
nance, particularly when
business districts interact
with residential areas.

Ward I Councillor l^o
Kelly cast the decisive vote,
opposing the measure which
hj had supported on June
15.

After the meeting, Kelly
said he'd thought about the
issue since his original vote,
and decided the ordinance
was not appropriate.

Ward 6 Councillor Brian
McNamee, architect of the
original anti-noise proposal,
introduced the issue Mon-
day as "an important ordi-
nance for the city and Ward
6 as well "

The ordinance amended
by Councillor John Keenan
on June 15 would have set
different decibel limits,
ranging from 55 to 67, on

allowable noise during day-
time, evening and overnight
hours, 1 1 p.m. to 7 a.m.. and
provided no fines until the
results were examined by a
committee in September.

Keenan submitted the
amendment during the coun-
cil' reconsideration of a pre-
vious anti-noise ordinance
which .set allowable decibel
levels at 75 for days and
65 for nights, ten decibels
higher than levels proposed
by McNamee. McNamee s
original proposal set noise
limits of 65 decibels for da> s

and 55 decibels at night
when it was introduced in
February.

However, that ordinance
was amended b> Councillor
Michael McFarland to allow
limits of 75 and 65. levels.

McNamee and Ma\or
Thomas Koch determined
the new levels were too high
and the ordinance was re-
considered on June I 5.

On June 15. council-
lors approved the revised
ordinance with Kecnan's
amendment by a 5-4 vote.

Nonprofit Group To Lead Efforts To Restore WoUaston Theater

Mayor Thomas Koch

cil thought enough of him to
offer up a moment of silence
and dedicated their meeting
in his honor.

But few could remem-
ber his last name. He was
always "just Frankie" to
the hundreds of people he
befriended, particularly the
police officers who watched
over him as he made his dai-
ly rounds of coffee shops.

Shortly after his death
at the age of 75, and for the
first time ever, the Quincy

THE KING OF THE GEMSTONES

Hest Western Adilms Inn • 29 Hancock St. Quincv, Ma 02170 • 617-328-1500

Ruby, the birthstone for July, is
the red variety of the mineral co-
rundum, which also includes sap-
phire. Since ancient times, this rare
red gemstone has been regarded as
the "king of the gcmstones," with
good reason. Fine rubies are rarer
than diamonds, emeralds, or sap-
phires, and their color is incompa-
rable. Rubies are also surprisingly
durable. In fact, on the famous
Mohs hardness scale of 1 to 10,
where diamond rates a 10, rubies
are second only to diamond with
a 9 rating. All these characteris-
tics combine to make fine rubies
among the most expensive of all
gems. Rubies have also long been
regarded as having mystical pow-
ers and are said to bring the wearer
romance, friendship, energy, cour-
age, and peace.

'R?9^

Who could dispute the allure
of the mesmerizing ruby? Once
thought to ensure a peaceful life,
ruby could protect any place that
housed it from theft, and home and
garden would be unhurt by storms.
While we make no guarantees for
the mystical properties of ruby,
we do believe it has the ability to
captivate. Come see our selection
of this gemstone that was once re-
served for wearing only by kings.

Concourse Project

Tenant Hold-Out Blocks
Quincy Fair Demolition

By LAURA GRFFIN

One last tenant holdout is
delaying the demolition of
Quincy Fair Mall, according
to Kevin Madden, Assistant
City Solicitor.

Madden told City Coun-
cil Monday that his office
has filed court papers in an
effort to evict the lone ten-
ant who is delaying demo-
lition plans for 1563-1597
Hancock St.

"All of the tenants have
vacated except one," said
Madden, adding, "We are in
court on that taking."

The demolition is sched-
uled to allow completion of
the Crosstown Concourse,
a single four-lane East-
West roadway from Granite
Street to Southern Artery
with direct access to Burgin
Parkway.

City officials and New
York developer StreetWorks
consider the Concourse a
key to the revitalization of
Quincy Center.

After Monday's meeting.
Madden said, "The (demo-
lition) bids are in. At some
point we have to move for-
ward."

Madden said it is essen-

tial to settle the issue as the
state is ready to advertise
bids for the roadwork in the
fall, "We are running out of
time."

For the court case. Mad-
den asked councillors to
provide updated confirma-
tion of the city's eminent
domain order filed last May.

In May 2008, City Coun-
cil approved a $2,010,000
purchase price which re-
quires the complete demo-
lition of the building and
gives the city all rights to
10% of the land.

In response to Ward 2
Councillor Daniel Ray-
mond, Madden said the
building's former owners,
Messina Enterprises, have
three years to challenge the
purchase price.

Regardless of a chal-
lenge, the city takes posses-
sion once the eminent do-
main order is issued.

"This is not going into
litigation," Madden said of
the property.

City Council President
Jay Davis said he looked
forward to the razing of the
building which will bring
light to the project and allow

people to better envision the
Concourse.

Davis, also, asked wheth-
er the city had received any
rents from tenants since as-
suming ownership.

Madden said those issues
are open to negotiation and
a tenants' relocation funds
can not be tapped for rent.

"Our goal is to work with
everybody," said Madden

COMMUNITY POLICE OFFICER James Dentremont was recently commended by City Coun-
cil for his outstanding work ser>ing that neighborhood for the past ten years. Dentremont was
transferred to the Special Investigations Unit this month. Ward 2 Councillor Daniel Raymondi
presented the commendation to Dentremont after Ward 2 community leaders described his dili-
gent work and dedication on their behalf. From left are Rev. Ann Suzedell, pastor, Quincy Point

Moments

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

• On July 4, 1826, John
Adams and Thomas Jeffer-
son, the second and third
presidents of the United
States, die on the 50th an-
niversary of the adoption of
the Declaration of Indepen-
dence. Both men had been
central in the drafting of the
historic document.

• On June 30, 1859,

Jean-Francois Gravelet be-
comes the first daredevil to
walk across Niagara Falls on
a tightrope 160 feet above
the Niagara gorge. Wearing
pink tights and a yellow tu-
nic, Blondin crossed a cable
about 2 inches in diameter
and 1,100-feet long with
only a balancing pole.

• On July 5, 1865, in

the East End of London,
revivalist preacher William
Booth and his wife Cath-
erine establish the Christian
Mission, later known as
the Salvation Army. Soup
kitchens were the first in a
long line of various projects
designed to provide physi-
cal and spiritual assistance
to the destitute.

• On July 3, 1908, writ-
er Mary Frances Keimedy
Fisher is bom in Albion,
Mich. She was highly pro-
ductive writer, producing
nine books on food, includ-
ing "How to Cook a Wolf
(1942).

• On July 2, 1937, the

Lockheed aircraft carrying
American aviator Amelia
Earhart and navigator Fred-
erick Noonan is reported
missing near Howland Is-
land in the Pacific. The
pair was attempting to fly
around the worid, and no
trace of them has ever been
found.

•On July 1,1941, NBC

broadcasts the first TV com-
mercial to be sanctioned by
the Federal Communica-
tions Commission. Adver-
tiser Bulova paid $9 to ad-
vertise its watches on the
air during the broadcast of a
Dodgers-Phillies game.

• On June 29, 1995, the

Sampoong department store
in Seoul, South Korea, col-
lapses due to construction
errors, killing more than
500 people. In the middle
of construction, the owner
insisted that an extra floor
with a swimming pool
be added. Seoul's official
plaiming department was
not advised of the change
and safety inspectors were
bribed. When the fifth-floor
ceiling showed signs of im-
minent collapse, the only
preventive measure taken
was to move expensive mer-
chandise out of the way.

ers for their loyal support

prepared statement released
to The Quincy Sun.

(Editor's Note: As our nation prepares to celebrate In-
dependence Day Saturday, July 4th, we find it appropriate
to re -run one of Henry Bosworth's favorite Sunbeams' col-
umns: A Day of Irony. The column, which first appeared in
July 1992. has been updated. )

July 4"", you could say, is a day of irony in American his-
tory.

America was bom on July 4"", 1776 and the two men who
played major roles in that historic event also died on July
4h-50 years later.

This Saturday marks the ZBS*" anniversary of the Decla-
ration of Independence
- America's birth cer-
tificate - and the 183"^
anniversary of the death
of two main architects-
Thomas Jefferson and
our own John Adams.

Adams, like Jeffer-
son, was a super pa-
triot.

Certainly a much better patriot than he was a prognosti-
cator. He predicted July 2'^-not July 4'''-would be celebrated
through the years as America's birth date.

Adams made that erroneous prediction in a letter to Abi-
gail Adams dated July 2, 1776. In the letter sent from Phila-
delphia to Abigail here in Quincy, he declared:

"The second day of July, 1776 will be the most memo-
rable epoch in the history of America."

The man, who would become second president after
George Washington, thought this because the Declaration
of Independence was adopted by 12 states on July 2. But, it
wasn't signed by anyone until July 4.

And, only two of the 55 signers actually affixed their sig-
natures on July 4*. One was Quincy-bom John Hancock,
who as President of the Second Continen-
tal Congress, was the first to sign.

Most of the others signed the precious
document Aug. 2. But six signed after that.
And Thomas McKean of Delaware didn't
get around to it imtil five years later.

Jefferson and Hancock usually get top
billing in history books when it comes to
the Declaration of Independence. Jeffer-
son as its author and Hancock as its first
signer.

Hancock's signature-bold and with a fancy flourish so
"King George III can see it without his spectacles" probably
is the most famous autograph in this country's history.

But Adams played a key, if not as glamorous a role, in
putting the Declaration together and getting it adopted.

Jefferson himself acknowledged that when he praised
Adams as ". . .the most efficient agent in procuring a public
Declaration of Independence."

And then that ironic day -July 4*, 1826 - the 50"" anniver-
sary of the Declaration of Independence when both Adams
and Jefferson died.

Adams was stricken here in Quincy in his favorite wing
chair in his second floor study at the Adams mansion, on
Adams Street. Known as the Old House, this was the home
of four generations of the illustrious Adams family and the
summer White House of the second president and his son,
John Quincy Adams, the sixth president.

Adams and Jefferson, once close allies, had a falling out
but reconciled in later years through the efforts of Abigail
as a peacemaker.

Among Adams' last words as he lay dying were "Jeffer-
son survives."

He thought Jefferson had outlived him. But actually Jef-
ferson had died earlier that same day at Monticello in Vir-
ginia at age 83.

News traveled slowly in those days, long before radio
and television. There were no such things as instant news
bulletins.

COA Seeking Wheelchairs

ABIGAIL

If there were, just imagine the flurry all day as the media-
especially cable TV-staked out the Adams Mansion here and
Monticello in Virginia.

Adams was just three months and 15 days from his 91"
birthday. He survived Abigail , his wife of 54 years, by eight
years.

But he had lived to see his son, John Quincy Adams, be-
come president in 1 825 .

The latter was in Washington when his
father died and did not know of his death
until several days later.

Abigail, the first woman to be the wife
of one U.S. president and the mother of a
second never knew that second honor.

Four days before he died, Adams was
asked to give a 50"' anniversary July 4""
toast to his fellow Quincy residents. The
old man replied:

"I will give you independence forever."

Asked if he would like to add to that, he declared, "Not
a syllable."

"Independence forever" - those words to remember and
cherish.

If you've never been to the Adams Mansion - (Old
House) - you've been missing a visitor's treat.

The Mansion has been under the supervision of the U.S.
National Park Service since 1979 and is part of the Adams
National Historic Park.

The late Willhelmina, as superintendent, gave the Old
House her personal loving care. Present Supt. Mariaiuie
Peak has carried on that tradition.

They have kept the house in a "lived in appearance."

Strolling the beautiful rooms, you get the feeling that
John and Abigail are out for a little walk and will be right
back.

Readers Forum

It's Easy To Criticize, But Suggest An Alternative

1 have a simple ques-
tion for Mr. Haley, who
criticized Mayor Koch for
bargaining with the unions,
and for agreeing to the GIC
deal which saves the City of
Quincy approximately $6
million in the FY '10 bud-
get.

How does Mr. Haley
think the City of Quincy
would get into the GIC

without bargaining with the
unions?

The law requires coali-
tion bargaining. Bargain-
ing requires give and take.
We know what Mr. Haley
wants; but what would he
give to get it?

The City saved $6 mil-
lion and insurance-eligible
employees got $300 apiece
in salary. Of the savings

from the move, the City got
approximately 5 to 1 in ben-
efit. Not bad for the City!

What would Mr. Haley
have offered instead? It's
easy to criticize any deal,
but Haley suggested no al-
ternative offer to the unions.
Would the employee groups
have accepted his offer?
Would the City of Quincy 's
employees be going into

the GIC next week, if Mr.
Haley, or his candidate of
choice were Mayor?

Or would the budget re-
quirements be $6 million
higher?

Reasonable people have

reason to ask these things.

Church Grateful For Donations For CooKits

Beginning on Mother's
Day and continuing for two
weeks thereafter, Quincy
Community United Meth-
odist Church collected do-
nations for CooKits to help
the women of Darfur.

A CooKit is a solar pow-
ered heating unit, which
allows Darfur 's women to

cook within the safety of the
refugee camps. Without one,
the women must go outside
the parameters of the camp,
where they are at high risk
of being attacked, beaten,
raped and branded by en-
emy militia.

A number of our fellow
Quincy citizens sent dona-

tions to Quincy Community
United Methodist Church for
our Darfur CooKit ministry.
Thanks to them and the peo-
ple of Quincy Community
United Methodist Church,
we were able to raise $350
for the Darfur Project.

On behalf of all of us at
Quincy Community, thank

you for helping to support
the Darfur Project.

Your generosity has liter-
ally helped to save women's
lives.

By FRANK McCAULEY

Quincy homeowners now have the official go-ahead

estimated 1 .000 owners of trouble

state to be approved for the program under which owners
of single to four-family dwellings mav obtain the finan
cial flood protection at a rate of S4 to $5 per SI.(KK)()

ter's Degree graduate of
the New England Conser-
vatory and recipient of the
Conservatory's President's
Award, will join the Boston
Landmarks Orchestra on
Wednesday, July 22 at the
DCR Hatch Shell on Bos-
ton's Esplanade for the first
performance of her engage-
ment as part of the Land-
marks Festival at the Shell.

Before moving to New
York to study as part of the
Master's program at Juil-
liard, Jacqueline Choi will
grace the Orchestra and its
fans with a performance of
Haydn's Cello Concerto No.

"I'm super excited about
playing with the Landmarks

er!" said Jacqueline Choi.
"What a blessing it is for me
to wrap up my final summer
in Boston, playing for some
of the best audiences in the
most beautiful outdoor en-
vironments in this city. It's
truly a gift."

Jacqueline Choi has per-
formed as a soloist with the
Boston Symphony, the New

In the past, Choi has per-
formed with renowned art-
ists Itzhak Perlman, Donald

and Nicholas Mann. Recent-
ly, Choi has programmed
her own transcriptions of
the Schubert, Schumann and
Strauss lieder.

Choi's first concert with
the Orchestra, entitled Vien-
nese Masters, explores the
rich history of Classical and
Romantic pieces inspired by

Vienna, Austria and will also

nor. Op. 68.

The concert is the second

Artichoke Appetizer, Cheesy Potatoes

It was a rehearsal dinner for my grand-
daughter Lauren and her soon to be husband
Christian at the home of Nancy and Ralph
Jacobs, Christian's parents.

And of course there were so many deli-
cious foods ranging from appetizers to grilled
steaks. Actually, when I walked into the party,
Ralph asked if I was looking for some new
recipes, which I immediately answered, "
of course."

Today I have two of Nancy 's recipes - one
is an appetizer, and the other is a scrumptious
potato side dish.

NORTH SHORE POTATOES
5 pounds potatoes ( unpeeled cooked)
refrigerate overnight
1 small onion copped
1 1/2 sticks butter

1 1/2 pkg. shredded white cheddar
cheese
1 container sour cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Grate the potatoes on a cheese grater (shred
side) or other type and place in a large bowl.
Set aside.

In a double boiler, put the onions, butter
and cheese, and cook until melted.

Add the sour cream to the cheese mix,
then remove from heat.

Blend all of this together and then pour
over the potatoes. Mix well. Place in a 1 3 x
9 inch baking pan and cook uncovered for
30 minutes. It is truly the most flavorful of
any potato that I have ever had.

The other recipe is for an artichoke dip and
since that's one of the my favorite vegetables,
I couldn't wait to make it.

ARTICHOKE DIP
1 can artichokes, packed in water
1 cup mayonnaise
1 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 of a small onion (chopped fine)
sprinkle of paprika

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Drain the artichokes and chop. Mix them
with the mayonnaise, Parmesan and onion in
a bowl .

Place in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle
with paprika, and bake for 20 minutes. Serve
with any kind of cracker or chips.

The former Quincy coach
who once took his team to
play in the Cotton Bowl has
been named to the Hall of
Fame.

Mike Cahill, the band di-
rector at Quincy High School
from 1 972 to 1 98 1 . was cho-
sen to join the Class of 2009
of the Massachusetts Drum
& Bugle Corps and Music
Educator Hall of Fame.

Under Cahill's direc-
tion, the QHS Marching
Presidents Band was recog-
nized as one of the pioneers
in the drum corps-style

England.

During Cahill's regime,
the Presidents marched at
the Cotton Bowl Festival in
Dallas, Tex.; the Blossom
Festivals in Washington,
DC, and Winchester, Va.,
and the Bermuda Music
Festival.

The Band also were win-
ners of the International
Blossom Festival in Niagara
Falls, Ontario, finishing first
in a field of 82 bands from
all over North America.

Cahill's formal induction
took place at the Annual
Hall of Fame Dinner/Dance
at the IBEW Heritage Hall
in Dorchester with two of
his championship ensembles
performing for the event.

Both groups have major
influences of Cahill's experi-
ence — Mass Brass, the cur-
rent Mini-Corps Association
champs in which he is per-
cussionist, and The Legends
of Drum Corps, under his
direction.

The dinner/dance also
served as a reunion for
former members of the
Marching Presidents dur-
ing Cahill's time at Quincy
High.

1976 QUINCY HIGH SCHOOL Marching Presidents Band,
director Michael Cahill's fifth at the school, lines up for its an-
nual yearbook picture. Cahill, who pioneered the drum corps-

style marching band in New England, was recently named to
the State Drum & Bugle Corps and Music Educator Hall for
Fame.

City's State Aid Slashed By 19% , FY 40 Budget Approved

Cont 'd From Pa/fe I

Koch's estimated a 15%
or $7 million cut in local aid
when he submitted his 2010
budget of $226^523,476 in
May.

At the time, city officials
considered the 15% local
aid cut conservative and
anticipated a smaller cut.
However, revenue estimates
at the state level plunged
from May to June and the
anticipated local aid cuts
ranged from 15% to 37%.

Despite the financial tur-
moil at the state level. Coun-
cillors had a legal mandate to
approve a final budget figure
last week within 45 days of
Koch's presentation.

To meet that deadline, the
City Council unanimously
approved Koch's FY 2010
budget on June 25 with the
understanding that neither
the state nor the city's rev-
enue figures were firm and
the budget will be revisited,
and likely, revised in the
fall.

"We're not done with
the 2010 budget," Finance
Committee Chairman John
Keenan said before the vote.
Councillors agreed with
Keenan that they would be
"taking a look at this on a
regular basis starting in Sep-
tember."

"it leaves a very tight
situation," said Keenan of
the budget which provides

level-funding for most de-
partments and maintains the
2009 municipal tax levy of
$169 million.

"We did a lot of work,"
said Keenan adding, "This
is just an odd and unprec-
edented year." The Finance
Committee began schedul-
ing budget discussions in
January

The council may have
to make new cuts in the
budget if the city's revenue
or state aid decline further,
according to Keenan who
described the turmoil on
Beacon Hill where revenue
estimates varied with each
budget.

"They get worse by the
day," said Keenan of the
state's finances. Keenan
said the Finance Committee
will request monthly reports
from the city's Department
of Municipal Revenue and
schedule a final review be-
fore December.

"If there is a need at that
time, we will go back (and
make adjustments) as we ap-
proach the tax rate," Keenan
said.

When Koch presented
his FY2010 budget, he
described the budget as
level-funded, but warned
residents and city officials,
"Level funding is different
from level services."

In fact, the approved
budget includes layoffs in

the school and fire depart-
ment and unfilled positions
in the police department.
The police and fire depart-
ments are level -funded.

The school department
budget is level-funded at
$81 million in the city's
2010 budget . However, the
school department received
federal stimulus funds rais-
ing their available funds by
$4 million.

The School Committee
approved an $89 million
budget for 2010.

Despite the bare-bones
budget, Koch pledged to
maintain the current $169
million tax levy raised
through real estate and per-
sonal property taxes. If as-
sessments go down, the tax
rate will increase.

On the plus side, Keenan
said city officials expect
$2.1 million in new growth,
a conservative increase in
excise tax, but lower hotel-
motel revenues.

"We have to watch rev-
enues," said Keenan

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi focused on
revenue projections during
the budget discussion, warn-
ing that the city's revenue
projections are much too
high and "indicate a serious
shortfall."

"It's a moving target."
said Keenan. suggesting the
revenue figures will become

"We've been conserva-

mayor's chief of staff, stat-
ing, "We stand by the bud-

has until now been forced
to host its broad range of
programs at different sites
around the city, according
to Elder Services Director
Thomas Clasby.

In addition to hosting the
department's programs, the
Kennedy Center will boast a
computer lab, game rooms,
arts and crafts, library pro-
grams, a music room and
expanded meal programs.

About $1 million in
renovations to the building
came from an existing capi-
tal improvement-financing
package approved before
Mayor Koch took office.
The money was freed up af-
ter the city scrapped plans to
build a garage at the Depart-
ment of Public Works that
was found to be inadequate,
Koch said.

A major sewer repair
project at the site also did

not come from the city's
operating budget, as it was
paid for by the Sewer Re-
habilitation Fund, which is
a fund created by develop-
ment fees, Koch said.

"This is a great example
of finding cost-effective
ways to do positive things,"
Koch said. "The building
was in serious disrepair, but
we were to completely re-
hab it without seeking any
additional money."

City Receives 4*** National Community
Development Award In One Year

Planets Magic Show At Crane Library

The City of Quincy was
recently presented with
the John A. Sasso National
Community Development
Award during the National
Community Development
Association's annual con-
ference.

The announcement was
made by Mayor Thomas P.
Koch and Planning Director
Dennis E. Harrington.

This recognition rep-
resents the fourth national
award the City's Department
of Planning and Community
Development has won over
the past year.

Two Residents

Graduate From

St. Anselm

Two local students re-
cently received degrees
from Saint Anselm College
in Manchester, N.H.

They are:

Jennifer Lorenz, who
graduated with a degree in
English.

Kevin Richardson, de-
gree in criminal justice.

^ALWAYS BUYING^
NEW& OW

The award recognizes
communities that exemplify
the spirit of the Community
Development Block Grant
program by showcasing
its good works through the
activities and events dur-
ing National Community
Development Week, which
was most recently observed
across the country from
April 13-17.

The city received this
award last year, and once
before in recent years.

"Once again, we had a
very strong application, due
to the fact that our Com-
munity Development Week
events included the involve-
ment of the Deputy Regional
Director of the United States
Department of Housing and
Urban Development and
from Congressman William
Delahunt's office," Har-

rington said.

"We greatly appreciate
the support of Congressman
Delahunt and 'HUD' with
respect to these vital pro-
grams."

Mayor Koch said, "I am
very pleased with the Na-
tional Community Devel-
opment Association's con-
tinued recognition of our
Community Development
Week activities.

"I especially want to
thank Dennis E. Harrington,
planning director, and Nan-
cy A. Callanan, community
development director, and
their staff in the Department
of Planning and Community
Development. This award
recognizes our efforts to
provide a better quality of
life for youth, seniors, and
low-income individuals
throughout this great city."

probably time you did because
you might be able to save some
money. In particular, homeown-

benefit from reviewing discounts
that insurance compames offer for
improvements, such as installing
sprinkler systems and deadbolts,
that make homes a better risk
Insurers may even offer a good
discount for simply replacing the
rubber hoses on washing machines
with no-burst stainless steel hoses
because water damage related
to leaks from washing machine
hoses accounts for a significant
amount of insurance payouts. Of
course, making this simple switch
also can save homeowners a lot of
aggravation. For information on

A Job Well Done

On Saturday, June 20, at approximately 9:30 a.m.. Of-
ficers Paul Matthews and Brian Raherty were dispatched
to the area of Sagamore Av-
enue on a report of "possible
child abuse."

While enroute, the dis-
patcher informed the officers
that a Verizon operator had
called to report a phone call
from a five year old male
child, who stated that his fa-
ther had physically assaulted
his older sister (10 years old)
yesterday afternoon. The offi-
cers arrived at the door of the
home and were greeted by the

five year old, who stated that only he and his sister were
home because both parents were working. A quick search
of the apartment confirmed there were no adults in the
apartment.

Officer Flaherty requested detectives from the Special
Investigations Unit respond to the scene. Officer Mat-
thews interviewed the five-year-old caller about the as-
sault. The victim said that he and his sister were getting
into the rear seat of the family car in the driveway yes-
terday, when his sister dropped a small piece of a cook-
ie onto the back seat. The vicUm said that their father
kicked her sister under the chin.

Officer Matthews then interviewed the victim/sister
and asked her if what her brother said was true. She
started to speak, then hesitated, shook her head and then
replied, "I don't want my daddy to go to jail, please don't
take my daddy away."

The officers assured the children that they were there
to get them and their parents help, so that no one gets hit
again. The officers noted a reddish mark under her chin,
and upon closer inspection, the right side of her face ap-
pearing to be discolored.

When asked if she had any other injuries, the victim
stuck out her tongue, revealing a small laceration to the
right side of her tongue. She then became visibly up-
set and started cry, but the officers comforted her and
reiterated that they were there to help.

At this time, a woman came out of another apartment
and the children identified her as an aunt, but she did
not speak English. Officer Matthews asked the boy what
his father was wearing on his feet at the time he kicked
the victim and he showed the officer a pair of size 10
white New Balance tennis shoes.

The officers asked the victim a few more questions,
but stopped after the victim again pleaded, "Don't take
my father away." A few minutes later, both parents ar-
rived home to take both children to a birthday party
in New Hampshire.

The officers informed the parents of what they learned,
then placed the father, a 42 year old Quincy resident,
under arrest for Assault and Battery with a Dangerous
Weapon, (shod foot) and transported him to the station
for booking.

The New Balance shoes were taken as evidence, along
with photos of the injuries. Officer Matthews filed verbal
and written reports with the Department of Children and
Families, who stated that they would be responding im-
mediately to investigate the incident of the assault and
the abandonment of the children.

Nice Work!

BE SURE TO: lock your car doors and remove valu-
ables, boxes, bags and other enticing items. This week,
car breaks were up considerably but many times it can be
linked to unlocked doors. These types of breaks are usu-
ally done by kids looking for money, but take other items
of value that they may be able to sell.

There are more unreported breaks out there, but the
owners do not contact the Police because nothing, or
something of low value is missing.

The Police Department encourages all victims to call
so that we may be able to gather additional information,
iwhich may lead to the apprehension of the thieves. .

St. Ann's School Hosts 'Hero Celebration Day'

St. Ann's School in Wol-
laston recently hosted a
"Hero Celebration Day" in
honor of the many heroes
who protect the citizenry
each and every day from
harm.

Every day heroes are
amongst us, yet, they are
seldom, if ever, formally
thanked.

Mrs. Lois Carme, who
is both the art and music
teacher at St. Ann's School,
prepared the nearly 300 stu-
dents in an extensive music
and art program to honor
the several different cat-
egories of heroes. The stu-
dents committed to memory
nine patriotic songs and
prayers, honoring the difter-
ent branches of service, law
enforcement, police and fire
departments.

Mrs. Carme contacted the
Boston and Quincy Fire De-
partments, the Boston and
Quincy Police Departments,
veterans of World War 11
and the Korean War, mem-
bers of the Army, Navy, Air
Force, Coast Guard, Nation-
al Guard and the Reserves.

Seventeen heroes re-
sponded and were in atten-
dance as honored guests.
Nay of these heroes are fam-
ily members of students who
attend St. Ann's School.

The heroes were escorted
into the auditorium by two
first grade students and were
seated in a special white-
ribboned area. At the end of
this wonderful program, the
heroes were escorted from
the auditorium to the strains
of "America The Beauti-
ful."

Adams Walk, Fountain Dedicated At Merry mount Park

More than 120 years af-
ter Charles Francis Adams
II donated Merrymount Park
to the people of Quincy, his
vision for a beautiful, pas-
sive place for the communi-
ty to enjoy has been realized
after the recent dedication
of the long-planned formal
garden.

The centerpiece gran-
ite fountain, donated by
the Quincy Partnership, is
running and the public is
welcome to enjoy the new
walkways, the re-location of
several memorials, benches,
a new treescape and flowers
that are part of the project.

The new project - called
Adams Walk - is being
funded by a $100,000 state
grant secured by state Rep.
Ronald Mariano and a park
improvement bond through
the city's hotel room tax, ac-

cording to Mayor Thomas
Koch, who restarted the
dormant park restoration
shortly after taking office.

"It is truly a beautiful
spot and a wonderful testa-
ment to the Adams family
vision for the park and all
the people who donated so
much to make it happen,
Koch said, who recognized
several residents who con-
tributed to the project.

Planning for the park
started more than 10 years
ago.

Edward Keohane, chair-
man of the Quincy Partner-
ship, said the park's long-
term impact was worth the
wait.

"This will be something
that generations of Quincy
residents will be able to en-
joy," Keohane said.

Going
"Green" One
Step at a Time

Along with reducing your
impact on the earth's re-
sources, "going green" can
often save you money. And
it doesn't necessarily have
to involve a big lifestyle
change. Here are some sim-
ple steps you can take to live
a bit "greener."

At Home:

• Buy local meats, dairy
products and vegetables.
Wash clothes in cold water
and dry them on a line out-
side. Shop garage sales or
buy used instead of new. Buy
a faucet filter and stop buying
bottled water. Install ceiling
fans and turn off the A/C.

• Install a low-flow show-
er head. Use a water drum to
collect roof rainwater for wa-
tering the garden and lawn.

• Instead of using pesti-
cides that contain chemicals,
look for cheaper and safer
alternatives. For example,
sugar and boric acid is said to
kill ants.

At Work:

The greenest way to go
to work is not to go to work.
Telecommuting saves on
clothing costs, eating out, ve-
hicle use and so much more.
But if you have to show up,
there are ways to "go green"
at work.

• Don't buy office supplies
until you're sure you can't
make do with what you have.
Print double-sided pages.
Make your own scratch pa-
per out of the reverse side of
paper that would ordinarily
end up in the trash. Decide if
software upgrades would let
you get another six months or
a year out of your computers.
Lower (or raise) the thermo-
stat one degree.

• For commuting, keep
your car tuned up to reduce
emissions and increase your
gas mileage. Reduce your
highway speeds to save gas.
Use public transportation,
if possible, or walk, bike or
carpxx)!.

Not everything "green" is
a money saver, however.

• Compact fluorescent
light bulbs cost more when
you buy them, and you might
have a problem getting rid of
them later if stores in your
area aren't signed up to col-
lect and dispxjse of CFLs.

• Green cleaning products
cost more and are thought
not to work as well. Look for
products you can make your-
self with simple ingredients.

You don't have to "go
green" all at once. Take it a
few steps at a time and you
could end up with a bonus: a
less-expensive lifestyle.

David Uffington regrets that he
cannot personally answer reader
questions, but will incorporate
them into his column whenever
possible. Write to him in care oj

Tips To T\irn Your Rental Space From Bland To Grand

(ARA) - Moving into
a new rental property and
wondering how much your
landlord will allow you to
decorate to make it feel
like your own? You're not
alone. According to a recent
Apartments.com survey, 90
percent of renters will deco-
rate when moving to a new
apartment; with 81 percent
decorating within the first
three months of the move.

Luckily, there are many
landlord-approved updates
that can turn the bland white
walls of a rental into a warm
and personal space.

Living large

In the living room, acces-
sories such as clocks and art
work will add personal style
and a splash of color. Stra-
tegically placed mirrors can
also help the room appear
larger in size.

Worried about nail holes?
New wall hooks from com-
panies such as 3M attach
using a removable adhesive

that won't damage the walls.
Or, vinyl wall stickers, like
those from www.wisedecor.
com, are another option to
add design and color to the
walls - and they peel off
easily when you move out.

Finally, focus on floors
and windows. If your rental
has less-than-perfect hard-
wood floors or carpeted ar-
eas, throw rugs are a perfect
solution to add a soft touch,
a hint of color throughout
your space, or to cover up
blemishes. Hanging curtains
or drapes, such as the Hutlet
drape from IKEA, can also
be an inexpensive way to
add soft texture and make a
personal design statement.
Add beauty to the bath
As one of the most used
rooms, the bath should be a
beautiful and inviting space.
However, most rental bath-
rooms are small and border
on the blah side. Installing
a Moen curved shower rod,
hanging a new shower cur-

tain and accessorizing with
plush towels can pull the
look of the bathroom togeth-
er, provide more space and
give a more upscale feel.

Swapping out your show-
erhead is another option that
not only creates a more en-
joyable spa-like showering
experience, but can also save
water. Moen's new Nurture
water-efficient shower-
heads, available at Lowe's,
feature three distinct settings
to suit any mood - and they
use up to 30 percent less
water while still providing
a superior, full -body shower
experience. They're a great
way to help you enjoy your
daily shower and lower your
monthly bills.

Kitchen rental re-do
Cook up some style in
the kitchen by adding color-
ful placemats and a center-
piece, such as plant or glass
vase, on the kitchen table or
breakfast bar. Posting pic-
tures of family, friends and

pets on the refrigerator can
also help make your rental
feel more like home. Final-
ly, add a decorative chalk-
board or dry-erase board to
help spruce up the kitchen
walls and provide a clutter-
less place for notes, recipes
and grocery lists.

Love to cook? Start by
purchasing quality knives
and a cutting board to keep
the countertops safe. Next,
add compact - yet multi-
functional appliances - such
as a Cuisinart Griddler Jr. to
allow you to grill burgers or
paninis indoors.

Finally, upgrade the
kitchen faucet to a high-
arc, pulldown model. It
will make a beautiful focal
point in the kitchen. It will
also make cleaning or fill-
ing large pots and pans, and
cleaning fresh produce easy,
while also allowing you to
reach outside the sink to wa-
ter plants or fill a bucket.

Soon after moving in,

your rental space will go
from bland to grand and will
feel like home in no time.

Earn Tax Credits For Your Green Home Improvements

(NU) - Consumers mak-
ing substantial home reno-
vations can receive a tidy
tax credit from Uncle Sam if
they shop and buy carefully.

The American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act of
2009 allows home owners
to receive tax credits when
they improve the energy ef-
ficiency of their home.

Tax credits are different
from tax deductions. A tax
credit is figured after you
determine your tax bracket
and how much you should
owe in taxes. A tax deduc-
tion reduces how much you
owe in taxes by decreasing
your taxable income. The

amount of a tax credit is the
same for everyone, while
tax deductions are not.

To receive the tax credits,
homeowners should make
sure their improvements ad-
here to the IRS guidelines:

1. Must be "placed in
service" from Jan. 1, 2009
through Dec. 31,2010.

2. Must be for taxpayer's
principal residence, except
for geothermal heat pumps,
solar water heaters, solar
panels, and small wind en-
ergy systems (where second
homes and rentals qualify.)

3. $1,500 is the maxi-
mum total amount that can
be claimed for all products

placed in service in 2009
and 2010 for most home im-
provements, except for geo-
thermal heat pumps, solar
water heaters, solar panels,
fuel cells, and small wind
energy systems, which are
not subject to this cap, and
are in effect through 2016.

4. Must have a "Manu-
facturer Certification State-
ment" to qualify.

5. For record keeping,
save your receipts and the
Manufacturer Certification
Statement.

6. Improvements made
in 2009 will be claimed on
your 2009 taxes (filed by
April 15, 2010) - use IRS
Tax Form 5695 (2009 ver-
sion) - it will be available

late this year or early 2010.

An example of a product
that can certify purchasers
for a tax credit up to $ 1 ^(X)
is the Comfortex Comfor-
Track Plus Energy Saving
Sidetrack Insulation Sys-
tem. The window insulation
system, which consists of a
double honey-comb cellular
.shade and removable side-
tracks, helps homeowners
save money and energy. The
sidetracks completely close
the gap between the window
and its shade, preventing
heat loss in the winter and
solar heat gain in the sum-
mer.

To leam more about the
tax credit, visit www.irs.gov
or talk to a talk advisor.

Season Ends With 3-1 Loss To North Andover

QYS Under- 16 Travel Team
Takes Third-Place At MTOC

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Youth Soc-
cer Under- 16 Girls Travel
team made their presence
felt on the state soccer
scene this past weekend at
the annual Massachusetts
Tournament of Champions
(MTOC) held in Lancaster;
a state soccer tournament
that is comprised of ten
league champions^^and two
wild card teams from all
around Massachusetts.

The 17-member team
finished in third-place in the
12-team tourney, losing in
the semifinals, 3-1 , to even-
tual state champion North
Andover. Quincy advanced
to the final four round by
capturing first-place in its
MTOC division. Before
the final four round, the 12
teams made up three four-
team divisions and played in
a round robin format, with
the three division champs
and one wild card team ad-
vancing.

Quincy earned its ticket
to the semifinals by going
1-1-1 in its division, which
also included U16 teams
from Springfield (a 3-1
win), Wilmington (a 0-0
tie) and Barnstable (a 2-1
loss). Quincy advanced on
tiebreakers.

In the semifinals, the
team actually held a 1-0
lead through the first 52
minutes of an 80-minute
game, but North Andover,
which hadn't allowed a
goal against all tournament
stormed back to win by
two goals. Still, with over
100 teams throughout the
state (playing in 14 sepa-
rate leagues) competing
for the state championship
throughout the spring, Quin-
cy's third-place finish was a
great accomplishment.

The MTOC consists of
travel teams from leagues
including BAYS (Boston
Area Youth Soccer), Berk-
shire, Coastal Youth Soc-
cer League, Essex County

Youth Soccer Association,
Midland Area Youth Soc-
cer, Middlesex Youth Soc-
cer League, Nashoba Valley
Youth Soccer League, Pio-
neer Valley Junior Soccer
League, South Coast Soccer
League and the South Shore
Youth Soccer League.

"This was the best group
of girls 1 have ever coached
in my many years coach-
ing in Quincy Youth Soc-
cer," said longtime head
coach Bob Keezer about
his 2009 team. "They have
been together preparing for
this season since back in
January and when the sea-
son started back in April
they just played so well all
season in the South Shore
League.

"We started the year by
losing our first two games,
but didn't lose the rest of
the year and even ended the
season with three consecu-
tive shutouts."

Quincy, which does
play in the eight-team
South Shore League (SSL)
against teams from Eas-
ton, Holbrook-Avon, Wey-
mouth, Whitman, Braintree,
Bridgewater and Brockton,
qualified for the MTOC by
earning a wild card invite
after finishing as the final-
ist in the SSL playoffs two
weekends ago in Bridgewa-
ter. Quincy finished the SSL
playoffs by defeating Hol-
brook-Avon, 5-2 in over-
time, and losing to Easton,
4-2.

"Congratulations to Bob
Keezer who has been a coach
in Quincy Youth Soccer for
over 16 years," said assis-
tant coach Larry Carchedi.
"He is a very committed
parent and coach who has
always been around to man-
age and coach these players.
Both the players and coach-
es had a great time and rep-
resented Quincy well over
the weekend. Last year the
team finished in the bottom
of the league; this year's

team is the #3 team in the
state. Needless to say, quite
an accomplishment."'

Coach Keezer was quick
to recognize the importance
of QYS and the efforts put in
by everyone involved with
the league and the team.

"1 want to compliment
Quincy Youth Soccer for
their absolute support and
efforts for youth soccer pro-
grams in Quincy," he stated.
"The league officials did a
great job and displayed ex-
treme professionalism that
all other leagues in the state
should follow.

"A special thanks to
Dana Santilli, the vice-pres-
ident of travel for QYS, for
his extraordinary support of
all the teams in the league."

Carchedi also recognized
the work done by Mr. San-
tilli over the years as a vital
member of the South Shore
League.

"Dana should also re-
ceive recognition as VP
of travel for QYS. He has
worked very hard to support
the youth players in Quincy
for travel soccer. He is also
on the SSL board and puts
in endless hours and should
be recognized for his com-
mitment to travel soccer and
all of his efforts. Having a
Quincy team get to the state
tournament is an accom-
plishment for the players
as well as Dana, who was
like a proud father over the
weekend with the Under-
16's in the tournament."

The 2009 U16 Quincy
team roster includes the fol-
lowing players: Kayla Thy-
men, Tara Sullivan, Em-
ily Sullivan, Sara Gardiner,
Shannon Coleman, Maggie
Lynch, Jillian Carchedi.
Courtney Byrne, Shannon
Buckley, Winnie Akory,
Gina Maurano, Mackenzie
Irvin, Kaleen Campo, Sara

Three-Win Week; Record Stands At 8-4

Morrisette Defeats
Holbrook & Hyde Park

By SEAN BRENNAN

Morrisette Legion fin
ished last week with a
perfect 3-0 record. The
week started with a con-
vincing 11-4 victory over
Holbrook Legion, and the
team followed that victory
with consecutive wins over
Hyde Park Legion (an 1 1-3
thrashing and a victory by
forfeit).

As of press time, Mor-
risette was sitting pretty in
the District 6 East Ameri-
can Legion standings with
an 8-4 overall record (16
total points), two points
behind division leader Ja-
maica Plain Legion.

"We are playing good
hall at the moment."' said
Morrisette"s Bill Marchand.
"The whole lineup, from
top-to-bottom, is hitting and
our pitching and defense
have been real solid.

"We have ten games left
in our schedule, but with
the bad weather, some of
our games this week may
have to be rescheduled.
But with 16 points so far.
our chances of making the
playoffs look good."

The team was set to play
the second of two games
against Hyde Park this week
on Saturday but the opposi-
tion did not have enough
players to field a team. As a
result, Morrisette earned its
easiest win of the season.

"They only had six play-
ers show up and as a result,
we won by forfeit," added
Marchand. "It would have
been nice to play the game
because we are starting to
really heat up at the plate,
but we will take any victory
we can get at this point."

Maybe Hyde Park just
wanted to avoid a similar
fate as the one that was

given to them on I riday
evening.

Behind the stellar pitch-
ing of Kevin Magoon (six
innings. five hits, five strike-
outs, two earned runs) and
Jimmy Vialpando (one hit.
two strikeouts), .Morrisette
beat Hyde Park 11-3.

The team jumped out to
the early lead on Friday w ith
a big first inning. Leadoff
hitter Danny Russell hom-
ered to get the scoring rally
started and he was followed
by a bevy of productive at-
bats. Colin Ryan reached
after being hit by a pitch;
John Ainslev walked; .Matt

Kids Say Spectacles Are Respectable

ter (QMC) for his leadership in the advancement of healthcare

Morrissey acknowledged the important role QMC plays in the
community and vowed to continue his support.

Using Fitness To Launch
You To Better Success

(NU) - Your journey
through life should begin
with one simple question:
"What can I achieve with
better health?"

Health and fitness can
impact your life, relation-
ships and business ventures.

Physical fitness can in-
crease mental and emotional
health, giving you more en-
ergy and a clearer mind.

Fitness expert Shawn
Phillips recommends using
the following fitness goals
to launch your personal suc-
cess:

• Set goals for the next 90
days as well as a vision for
the next year.

• Don't narrow your
goals to just fitness, but also
personal and professional
goals. That way, you're not
only getting into shape, but

also improving your ability
to excel in life.

• Establish two quantifi-
able goals, such as losing lo
pounds of fat or gaining 10
pounds of muscle; and two
mental health goals, like
improving a relationship or
pursuing new interests.

• Find ways to reinvigo-
rate your mind and body, in-
cluding eliminating refined
foods, sugar and empty
calories from your diet, get-
ting restful sleep and taking
up light exercise to help you
get used to moving.

"When you are strong,
healthy and alive with en-
ergy, you are more effective,
more confident and more
in control, Phillips says in
SUCCESS magazine. "Your
results in life will improve
as you do."

Kids who wear glasses
used to beeasy targets for
the classroom bully.

Today, they are making
as much of a fashion state-
ment as an improvement to
their vision.

"Only a small percent-
age of children who have to
wear glasses are disappoint-
ed about it," says Dr. Amy
Walker, an optometrist with
the University of Wisconsin
Department of Ophthalmol-
ogy. "Most children are ac-
cepting of needing glasses
because their friends or sib-
lings wear glasses."

Walker says that, un-
like the very large or horn-
rimmed glasses from de-
cades ago, today's frame
styles and thinner lenses
have made glasses more at-
tractive for kids, especially
pre-teens. However, she
says some children who
want them may not neces-
sarily need them.

"I can tell if they are not
trying hard enough when
reading the eye chart," says
Walker. "At the end of the
exam, I give them plain
lenses without a prescrip-
tion , then have them read the
eye chart again. Most of the
time, they are able to read it
better because they want to
demonstrate to their parents
the glasses helped them see
better."

In those cases. Walker
discreetly tells parents not to
be concerned; their children
do not need glasses. But she
says those experiences are
never a waste of time.

"I always mention this

was a good time for an exam
anyway," she says. "Some-
times, 1 do pick up some-
thing that may need atten-
tion."

While some kids may be
eager lo get glasses. Walker
says parents are less enthu-
siastic about the idea as well
as the cost.

"Some parents will ask,
'Does my child have to wear
glasses now? Can't we put
this off?'" she says. "They
also control the purse strings,
so they will choose the price
range. Yet, 1 always encour-
age parents to let the child
have some type of say, be-
cause they have to like them
enough to wear them."

Walker also offers these
suggestions to parents
whose children may require
eyeglasses or contact
lenses:

• Go to establishments
that treat a lot of children
with eye problems. Usually,
those places have opticians
who are properly trained to
fit glasses for children.

• Make sure a child's
eyeglasses are adjusted
frequently. Walker says
children's frames are
typically made of plastic,
and in time, facial heat
could make them stretch out
and not fit properly.

• Make an appointment
for an eye exam if a
pediatrician detects potential
vision problems. These may
include strabismus (the
misalignment of an eye
so its line of vision is not
pointed in the same direction
as the other eye) and muscle

ANTIBIOTICS BEFORE

Patients with hip prostheses
may have heard that it is ad-
visable to take antibiotics prior
to undergoing tooth cleaning,
scaling, and other procedures
to address the potential release
of bacteria into the bloodstream
caused bythese treatments. For
people with replacement joints,
the concern is that bacteria in
the bloodstream ("bacteremia")
could cause an infection by at-
taching to the artificial joint or
surrounding tissues. However,
such infections are quite rare.
In fact, the American Dental As-
sociation recommends against
the use of antibiotics prior to
dental procedures with the sole
intention of preventing infec-
tions in artificial joints. Excep-
tions to this recommendation
involve patients who are very
susceptible to infection or are
having a procedure that carries
a higher risk of bacteremia.

Chiropractor i

ITCHING TO MAKE A CONNECTION

Researchers recently

underscored the major role
the nervous system plays in
controlling and conducting body
functions when they undcrtcxjk to
study a spinal nerve that transmits
the "itch'" signal to the brain.
They found that these nerves,
which reach the brain from near
the bottom of the rib cage, can
differentiate when an itch needs
to be relieved and when it does
not. Once this determination
in the spinal cord is made, the
relief response to itching from
scratching is set in motion.
This study demonstrates how
conditions seemingly unrelated to
the brain and spinal column may
respond to a chiropractor's stated
goaJ of unblocking transmission
of nerve signals. Once nerve
energy flows freely, the body can
perform as intended.

Our mission is to give our
patients and their families the

truth about health, so they can get
well and stay well. Talk to your
diKtor of chiropractic about ways
to improve your lifestyle. The
chiropractic approach to health
care is natural. We can help you
learn more about your body and
how to have greater responsibility
and control over your personal
health At FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC, we recommend
a continuing schedule of regular
chiropractic checkups, which can
help detect, correct, and maintain
ultimate spinal and nervous system
function. Please call 617.472.4220
to schedule an appointment and let
us help you lead a healthier life.
We're located at 112 McGrath
Hwy.. Quincy.

PS. The finding from the
stud}' mentioned above is in step
with other research that found that
specific brain circuits are involved
in the ability of scratching to stop
itching

it's OK for you to go on
living just as you have been,
if something was wrong, the
doctor would be obliged to
tell you so.

Stress tests are done to de-
tect coronary artery disease,
the illness that brings on heart
attacks. The btxiklet on that
subject explains what coro-
nary artery disease is, how it's
detected and how it's treated.

name and address. Please al-

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I was recently diagnosed
with the swallowing disor-
der Zenker's diverticulum.
I am scheduled for surgery.
Can you discuss it and its
treatment? I am interested
in the recovery process be-
cause I am a teacher and use
my voice all day. My doc-
tor has chosen surgery that
involves going through my
mouth.- BJJ.

ANSWER: A Zenker's
diverticulum is a pouch that
bulges from the lower part
of the throat. The pouch can
cause swallowing problems.
Food can get caught in it and
remain there. When it finally
leaves the pouch, it has a most
unpleasant cxlor.

There are many surgi-
cal procedures to remove the
pouch and shore up the throat
tissue. Scopes are used by
some doctors. Recovery is
quicker with the scope. Af-
ter surgery, you will not be
allowed to eat or drink for a
day or so, longer for the stan-
dard operation. The results
are almost always excellent.
The voice is not commonly

affected.

Stress Tests Help

Detect Heart

Disease

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I had an EKG in prepara-
tion for surgery. The doctor
said it was abnormal. I was
sent for a stress test. I could
not do the physical stress
test, so I had a chemical one.
I was told that the results
were OK.

No one told me why the
EKG was abnormal. I am
very concerned. Is it OK
just to go on living as I have
been, or do I need to do
something?

I have searched the In-
ternet for information hut
can find none. - MD.

ANSWER: A resting EKG
is a good test, but it's not the
ultimate heart test. Things can
look strange on a resting EKG .
In order to find out if those
strange-looking things are
significant, the next step is to
do a more sophisticated heart
test, one that is more sensitive
in detecting true changes and
more specific in eliminating
EKG changes that look odd
but don't truly represent heart
disease.

That's where a stress test
comes in. During a stress test,
the person exercises, usually
on a treadmill. AH during the
test, an EKG mns. it shows
changes if the stressed heart
isn't getting enough blood
when it has to pump harder.
You didn't have the treadmill
variety of a stress test; you
had one where a drug stressed
your heart. The end result is
the same.

Your stress test must have
removed the suspicion of
heart disease that arose from
the resting EKG. Do you play
cards? Your stress test trumped
your resting EKG.

A Thought
For Th£ ^hk

FREEDOM - what a wonderful,
meaningful word! One synonym
for the word is privilege. . .

And privileged we are ... In our
American way of life, we have more
privileges than any other people
on earth. We are privileged to wor-
ship where and when we wish . . .
privileged to work where we choose . . . privileged to
educate ourselves to any degree we wish . . . privileged
to seek and earn better living conditions. . . privileged
to travel where and when we wish . . . privileged to
express our thoughts, to agree or disagree with our
fellow men . . . privileged to be able to vote the way
we wish and for whom we wish. . .

INDEPENDENCE . . . FREEDOM ... is a day by
day privilege that must be earned. It is not a conces-
sion we can take for granted. And so, on this 4th of
July, would it not be fitting and proper for all of us to
bend our knees and fold our hands and give thanks
for the privilege of being an AMERICAN?

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Get your facts together and be-
come familiar with them before
you have to face up to that in-
terview. The better prepared you
are, the easier it will be to make
that important impression.

TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) New information might war-
rant changing your mind about
a recently made decision. Never
mind the temporaiy confusion it
might cau.se. Acting on the truth
is always preferable.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Creating a loving atmosphere for
those you care for could pay off
in many ways. Expect to hear
some unexpected but very wel-
come news that can make a big
difference in your life.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Stepping away from an old
and seemingly insoluble problem
might be helpful. Use the time
to take a new look at the situa-
tion and perhaps work out a new
methcxl of dealing with it.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
You're still in a favorable goal-
setting mode. However, you
might need to be a little more re-
alistic about some of your aims.
Best to reach for what is currently
doable. The rest will follow.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) A setback is never
easy to deal with. But it could
be a boon in disguise. Recheck
your proposal, and strengthen
the weak spots. Seek advice from
someone who has "been there
and done that."

LIBRA (September 23 to
October 22) Coming up with a
new way of handling a tedious

job-regulated chore could lead to
more than just a congratulatory
memo once the word reaches the
"right people." Good luck.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) What you might
call determination someone else
might regard as stubtwrnness.
Lcx)k for ways to reach a com-
promise that won't require a ma-
jor shift of views on your part.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) You're still
in a vulnerable mcxie vis-a-vis
"offers" that sound tot^ gcxxi to
be true. So continue to be skepti-
cal about anything that can't be
backed up with provable facts.

CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Thrift is still
dominant this week. What you
don't spend on what you don't
need will be available for you to
draw on should a possible (albeit
temporary) money crunch hit.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Staying close to
home early in the week allows
for some introspection about your
social life. Sort out your feelings
before rejoining your fun-time
fellows on the weekend.

PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) It can be a bit daunt-
ing as well as exciting to find
yourself finally taking action on a
long-delayed move for a change.
It helps to stay with it when oth-
ers rally to support you.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
love of home and family provide
you with the emotional support
you need to find success in the
outside worid.

Ward 4 Council Candidate Palmucci
Submits Nearly 400 Nomination Signatures

Two unions - Telephone
Workers Union Local 2222
and Plumbers and Gasfitters
Local 12 - have endorsed
Ward 4 Council lor Jay Davis
in his bid for re-election.

P.J. Foley, chairman
of the Telephone Workers
IBEW Local 2222 's Com-
mittee on Political Educa-
tion, said, "Jay Davis recog-
nizes that working families

are the heart and soul of any
great city. From day one,
his support for our union
on quality of life issues
has been unmatched. For
that reason," Foley added,
"IBEW Local 2222 has
endorsed Jay Davis in the
Ward 4 Councillor's race."
At a recent membership
meeting, the members of
Plumbers and Gasfitters,

Local 12 voted to endorse
Davis.

"We have a lot of mem-
bers who live in Ward 4,"
said Kevin Cotter, Local 12
Business Manager. "It was
an easy vote. They know
that Councillor Davis has
consistently worked on the
behalf of people who get up
every day and go to work."

Ward 4 City Council
candidate Brian Palmucci
announces he has officially
qualified for the 2009 city
election ballot.

Palmucci said he is
poised to challenge incum-
bent Ward 4 Councillor Jay
Davis, who has never been
opposed.

"I'm honored to be on
the ballot," says Palmucci.
a former Assistant District
Attorney and current state
prosecutor.

"It has been a long time
since Ward 4 voters have had
a choice about who should
represent them on the City

Council, and 1 believe West
Quincy needs a change for
the better "

Palmucci said his cam-
paign delivered "a whop-
ping 180 certified voter sig-
natures" to the City Clerk's
office, far exceeding the
50-signature requirement.

In addition. Palmucci
said his campaign also sub-
mitted an additional 204 sig-
natures to the City Clerk's
office July 26. and is await-
ing their certification

Palmucci said he collect-
ed the signatures himself,
personally canvassing cit\
neighborhoods and bring-

ing his views and campaign
platform to the front doors
of the voters.

"This IS going to be a
grassrcxjts campaign from
start to finish, and the best
way to wage a grassroots
campaign is b> hitting the
streets and talking directly
to the voters," said Palmuc-
ci, a Willard Street resident

"1 will continue to go
door-to-door throughout the
campaign, as I have been
doing since December I
look forward to talking with
residents about the issues
that are important to them "'

For Efforts In March 26 Fire

Fallon Emergency Medical
Response Team Honored

Fallon Ambulance Ser-
vice Paramedics and EMTs
were honored by the City
Quincy Council at their June
15 meeting, for Fallon's as-
sistance in a March 26 fire at
100 Robertson St.

The fire claimed the
lives of a man and his two
infant sons, but the man's
wife survived the basement
fire. Fallon's EMTs and

Paramedics were cited for
their bravery and efforts, as
were members of the Quin-
cy Police and Quincy Fire
Departments. More than 35
emergency personnel from
all three departments were
presented citations of thanks
from the City Council.

Vice President at Fallon
Ambulance, said, "We are

Guidelines For July 3rd

Houghs Neck Celebration

As the Independence Day
Holiday approaches on July
4, Police Chief Paul Keenan
announces guidelines for the
Houghs Neck celebration to
be held Friday, July 3.

Due to the heavy volume
of vehicular and pedestrian
traffic on many of the nar-
row streets, extra parking
restrictions will be in effect
and certain areas will be

posted "No Parking."

In addition to motor ve-
hicle violations, police of-
ficers will be out enforcing
underage drinking, open
container violations as well
as using or possessing ille-
gal fireworks.

"These steps are being
taken so that all can enjoy
the holiday safely. Happy
4'** of July," Keenan said.

very proud of the work of
our EMTs and Paramedics.
They are heroes who put
their training to the test in
life-and-death situation and
who understand that se-
conds count in emergency
situations."

He added, "We are gra-
teful for their bravery and
their dedication.

"We also have a tremen-
dous respect for the coura-
geous work of the Quincy
Fire and Police Departments
and are proud to work with
them." He continued, "One
tragedy is one too many, but
the residents of Quincy can
be assured that they have a
strong, capable emergency
response team ready when
needed."

Council President Jay
Davis was joined by other
city councillors in making
the presentation to Fallon's
EMT and Paramedics, as
well as members of the Po-
lice and Fire Departments.

Local residents showed
their support for U.S. troops
in Iraq and Afghanistan Sa-
turday, when a care package
drive collected scores of
boxes of items - enough to
assemble several hundred
care packages for U.S. sol-
diers.

Organized by the Quin-
cy and Milton Republican
committees, the care packa-
ge drive - held at the Heri-
tage Hall American Legion
Post in Milton - also collec-
ted $1,500 in donations for
Weymouth non-profit Care-
Packs to help offset the cost
of shipping the care packa-
ges to the Middle East.

Throughout the day, re-
sidents streamed into the
legion post, which donated
the use of its facilities for
the drive. Student volun-
teers from Milton and Quin-
cy helped sort and pack the
donated items, and helped
drum up support by holding
signs in front of the hall.

Donated items included
soap, toiletries, sunscreen,
insect repellent, clothing,
non-perishable snacks,

books, magazines and cards
and letters thanking the
troops for their service. Mil-
ton resident John Hajjar also
presented a donation of two

Open For 18,000 Senior Citizens

Delahunt, Koch, Joe Kennedy, III Dedicate Senior Center

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Cong. William Delahunt
and Joseph Kennedy, ill,
joined Mayor Thomas Koch
in dedicating Kennedy Se-
nior Center last Friday and,
by Monday, the center was
open for all.

Council on Aging Di-
rector Tom Clasby said the
center was fully operating
this week as seniors played
volleyball in the renovated
gymnasium while others
trickled in to enjoy card
games, coffee and a tour of
the facility.

Clasby served as master
of ceremonies at the dedica-
tion which opened with the
singing of the national an-
them by Quincy Police Sgt.
Patrick Faherty.

Delahunt and Kennedy
were the featured speakers
and each outlined the close
ties between the Kennedy
family, Quincy, and Koch.

The red-headed 28-year
old Joseph Kennedy, 111
captivated the audience of

MAYOR TOM KOCH speaks

cret World War II mission.

A June graduate of Har-
vard School Law School,
Kennedy is dipping his toes
in political waters as an un-
paid intern in Delahunt's of-
fice while studying for his
bar exam.

The audience laughed
as Kennedy bantered with
Delahunt over his free labor
and missing paychecks, then
outlined the long "relation-
ship between the City of
Quincy and my family."

Quincy is "a very special
place," said Kennedy who
traced the Kennedy Quincy
connection back to World
War I and 1918 when
the family patriarch, Joseph
Kennedy, ran the Fore River
Shipyard and a Squantum
annex for Bethlehem Steel.

His great-grandfather
made it the "most produc-
tive shipyard in the country,"
said Kennedy who spoke of
the war hero for whom he
and his father are named.

Less than a half mile
from the senior center lies
the site of the former Squan-
tum Naval Base where Ken-
nedy said, "My great Uncle

Joseph Kennedy, Jr.,
was just 29 when his plane
crashed during a sp>ecial
mission in World War II.
A Naval destroyer named

commissioned at Fore River

Kennedy praised the au-
dience of senior citizens
for the "tremendous lives
you have led and all you
have contributed."

"There are 18,000 of us
in this city," Delahunt said
before lauding Koch and the

"I want to come here
sometime and enjoy this
wonderful facility. Save a

who is in his late 60's.

Delahunt said he'd been
with Senator Kennedy ear-
lier that day and cited the
senator's "special affection
and love for this commu-
nity. He obviously is facing
a great challenge."

For Koch, the center's
opening represents the ful-
fillment of a campaign prom-
ise and a major achievement
for his 1 8-month-old admin-
istration.

"Everybody chipped in to
make this happen," said
Koch who commended

his staffers, Helen Murphy,
Chief of Operations and
Paul Hines, Assistant Plan-

Jim Edwards, state legisla-

A FEW POINTERS

While diamond weight is
described in terms of "carats,"
diamonds less than one carat in
weight (0.2 grams) are described
as "pointers." For instance,
with each carat divided into one
hundred points, a O.lS-carat
diamond is described as a "IS
pointer." In essence, then, one
need not necessarily purchase a
one-carat diamond to be happy.
A 45- or 50-point diamond will
cost considerably less (all other
things being equal) than its one-
carat counterpart and still pro-
vide all the fire and brilliance
that is expected of a diamond. In
addition, some diamond jewelry
consists of a number of pointer
diamonds whose whole exceeds
its parts. This is good news for

J9'9?*£

the value-conscious consumer.

Diamonds were once believed
by the ancients to be splinters
from the stars, and diamonds of
any carat weight continue to cap-
ture the hearts of lovers of great
beauty. [Mamonds have been the
traditional symbol of love since
ancient Greece. Are you look-
ing for fine jewelry a cut above
the rest? Look no further! Our
diamond collection contains
virtually any shape and size
imaginable, and all stones are
available for inspection in our in-

New Time Capsule To Be Buried
Saturday In Abigail Adams Cairn

Mayor Thomas Koch and
Ward 2 Councillor Daniel
Raymondi announced Tues-
day that a new time capsule
containing items from pres-
ent-day Quincy will be bur-
ied for a future generation
to discover inside the newly
restored Abigail Adams
Cairn during a ceremony at
1 1 a.m. on Saturday.

Koch, Raymondi and the
Quincy Historical Society
will host the rededication
at the Cairn site atop Penn's
Hill that marks the location
where Abigail Adams took
young John Quincy Adams
to watch the Battle of Bun-
ker Hill in 1775.

Workers performing

emergency renovations to
the Cairn last year discov-

ered a time capsule bur-
ied in.side the stone struc-
ture that dated back to the
Cairn's original construction
in 1896. The time capsule
revealed dozens of artifacts,
including newspapers from
the day, a parchment scroll
signed by local dignitaries, a
poem about Abigail Adams,
a book offered by the Sons
of the American Revolu-
tion and other trinkets of the
day.

The new time capsule will
be buried inside the Cairn
and sealed as the finish-
ing touch to the restoration
project. Officials declined to
reveal what would be in the
capsule until Saturday's cer-
emony, but confirmed that

"We unearthed some
wonderful history while try-
ing to preserve a rich piece
of our own history, and I am
proud that our community
will be leaving something
for future generations to
find," said Koch. "I cannot
thank enough the Quincy
Historical Society, Council-
lor Raymondi and all the
people who contributed to
this effort."

The Cairn underwent re-
pairs last year after Koch and
Raymondi worked together
to declare its condition an
emergency and secure fund-
ing for the restoration. The
Cairn was torn down and re-
built using its original stone
by expert masons.

"We started this project
largely as a public safety
concern because of the con-
dition of the Cairn, so I am
thrilled that it turned into
such a positive for the com-
munity," said Raymondi.

Mayor's Commission To Review Noise Issue

Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounces his administration
will embark on a full review
of noise-related issues after
a proposed city law to regu-
late loudness in city neigh-
borhoods failed to pass the
City Council last week.

Koch said he will appoint
an ad-hoc Noise Commis-
sion comprised of business
owners and residents to re-
view noise complaints and
will obtain noise-measuring
devices in an effort to obtain

specific data on noise levels
in city neighborhoods.

"I am disappointed that
a compromise on the ordi-
nance could not be reached,
but that does not mean we
can not make real progress
on this issue in the months
ahead," Koch said.

Koch said spending the
summer working on the is-
sue and gathering empin-
cal data will be important
should a new ordinance be
debated by the City Council

in the fall.

Koch said the noise com-
mission members would
be a broad cross-section of
people, from residents af-
fected by noise issues to
business owners who would
be affected by any noise or-
dinance to city officials.

The City Council reject-
ed a noise ordinance pro-
posed by Ward 6 Councillor
Brian McNamee after sev-
eral meetings and attempts
at compromise legislation.

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

•On July 11, 1656, Ann

Austin and Mary Fisher, two
Englishwomen, become the
first Quakers to immigrate
to Boston. Austin and Fisher,
whose liberal teachings en-
raged the Puritan colonial
government, were arrested
and jailed. After five years in
prison, they were deported.

• On July 8, 1776, in
Philadelphia, the Liberty Bell
rings out from the tower of
the Pennsylvania State House
(now known as Independence
Hall), summoning citizens to
the first public reading of the
Declaration of Independence.
Though the document was
adopted by delegates on July
4, the Liberty Bell was not
rung until the Declaration of
Independence returned from
the printer on July 8.

•On July 9, 1877, the All

England Croquet and Lawn
Tennis Club begins its first
lawn tennis tournament at
Wimbledon. The Wimble-
don Championship is the
only major tennis event still
played on grass.

• On July 7, 1928, the

Chrysler Corporation intro-
duces the Plymouth as its
newest car. With a delivery
price of $670, the Plymouth
was an attractive buy, selling
more than 80,000 units in its
first year.

• On July 6, 1942, in

Nazi-occupied Holland, 13-
year-old Jewish diarist Anne
Frank and her family are
forced to take refuge in a se-
cret sealed-off area of an Am-
sterdam warehouse, where
they hide for two years. "The
Diary of Anne Frank" has
served as a literary testament
to the 6 million Jews, includ-
ing Anne herself, who were
silenced in the Holocaust.

• On July 12, 1962, at the

Marquee Club in London,
the Rolling Stones give their
first public performance. The
rock band's name came from
a Muddy Waters song. Al-
though now in their 60s, the
Rolling Stones continue to
tour, playing sold-out shows
around the world.

• On July 10, 1992, the

Alaska court of appeals over-
turns the conviction of Joseph
Hazelwood, the former cap-
tain of the oil tanker Exxon
Valdez. Hazelwood had been
found guilty of negligence
for his role in the massive oil
spill in Prince William Sound
in 1989. The Exxon Valdez,
renamed Sea River Medi-
terranean, still transports
oil, but is legally prohibited
from entering Prince William
Sound.

Internet Index Expanded
At Registry Of Deeds

Norfolk County Register
of Deeds William G'Donnell
announces the expansion of
the internet accessible land
records research available
at the Norfolk County Reg-
istry of Deeds at www.nor-
folkdeeds.org.

The ongoing project has
extended and made avail-
able all recorded land in-
dexes and images from 1954
back to and including 1947.
"Recorded land records
are referenced by a book
and page number based on
the traditional Common
Law recording system,"
G'Donnell said. "This proj-
ect has added online indexes
back to 1 947 and has greatly
enhanced our current inter-

net accessible library.

"This is a real benefit for
the practitioner and con-
sumer alike as indexed re-
cords are the primary way to
locate an applicable, but un-
determined, book and page
reference," O'Donnell said.

The next phase of the ex-
pansion will take the online
indexing capacity back to
the year 1911.

"Our goal is to bring the
Norfolk County Registry of
Deeds into the homes, mu-
nicipalities and businesses
of Norfolk County and to
improve the usefulness of
the system to both real es-
tate professionals and the
general public," O'Donnell
added.

Mayoral Preliminary Brewing?

KOCH

PHELAN

The city' election calendar - to borrow a horse-
racing term - is coming down the home stretch
in terms of filing nomination papers.

The last day and hour to submit nomination papers
for certification to the Board of Registrars is Tuesday,
Aug. 4 at 5 p.m. That's less than four weeks for po-
tential candidates for mayor, councillor at-large, ward
councillor and school committee to submit at least 50
valid signatures.

At this point, some 26 citizens have pulled papers
for various offices in Quincy. And the prospects ap-
pear pretty good there will be a preliminary election
for mayor, school committee and Ward 4 councillor.

In fact, the best
chance for a pre-
liminary may be in
the race for mayor
which is heating up
between incumbent
Tom Koch, who is
seeking a second
term, and former

Mayor William Phelan, whom Koch unseated two
years ago. Phelan announced his bid to win back the
mayor's office in early June after exploring a potential
candidacy earlier in the spring.

Both Koch and Phelan have officially declared their
candidacies and have held fundraisers to fuel their
campaign war chests.

So while the Koch-Phelan rematch stands to be the
main bout this fall, the question remains if there will
be other contenders on the mayoral card.

As of Tuesday, three other potential candidates have
pulled papers for mayor, according to the City's Elec-
tion Department.

And one of those would-be candidates says he is
very serious about joining Koch and Phelan to force a
preliminary election Tuesday, Sept. 22.

Joseph O'Malley, 43, of 63 Island Ave., told The
Sun he intends to campaign for the city's highest elect-
ed office.

"I will absolutely and positively collect enough sig-
natures (to qualify for the ballot.) There's no doubt in
my mind. I'm even going to ask Koch and Phelan to
sign them," O'Malley said.

"I'm serious about becoming a candidate. I am an
exasperated taxpayer. My taxes keep going up and city
services keep going down. I'm curious about where all
our tax money is going."

O'Malley is a letter carrier in Weymouth. He moved
to Quincy six years ago. He also took papers out to
run for mayor in 2005 but did not retum them. That
was the year Phelan, mnning for a second term, was
challenged by Ward 6 Councillor Joseph Newton and
Quincy businessman Harvey Kertzman.

But, O'Malley says, this year may be different. "I'm
serious about running and I think I'm a level-headed
guy. I'm just a frustrated taxpayer who believes resi-
dents deserve a better choice than Koch and Phelan for
mayor."

The other two potential candidates who have pulled
papers for mayor are Christopher Clark, age 42, of 359
East Squantum St., who is a disc jockey for CBS radio;
and Charles Dennehey, age 61 , of 610 Willard St., who
lists his occupation as a driver.

Dennehey pulled papers for mayor in 2005 and
2007 but did not retum them.

So, taking papers out doesn't necessarily mean
those papers will be returned.

But if just one other person submits papers for
mayor and joins Koch and Phelan, then a preliminary
election would be held Sept. 22 to pare the number
of mayoral contenders to two. The winners Sept. 22

would square off in the final election Nov. 3.

G

THE POTENTIAL FIELD for school committee is
up to eight as four more would-be candidates have in-
dicated their intentions to seek one of the three seats
that are up this year.

Two of those seats are open because current School
Committeemen Ron Mariano and Nick Puleo are not
seeking election this fall.

Mariano, who is also a state representative, was
named Assistant Majority Leader in the House of Rep-
resentatives in February. He took himself out of the
school race in early May so that he could focus on his
legislative duties and additional responsibilities as as-
sistant majority leader.

Two weeks later, Puleo pulled out of the school
race. He's decided to pursue a master's degree from
Boston College on a scholarship studying ethics and
the relationship between politics and religion.

So, the only sitting School Committee member who
will appear on this year's ballot is incumbent Anne
Mahoney, age 43, of 12 Ferriter St., who announced
her candidacy for a second four-year term last month.

The latest entrants into the field are:

Maureen Ann Durkin, age 52, of 125 Colonial Dr,
a registered nurse; Michael Covais, age 5 1 , of 23 Pope
St., a local attorney; Charles Adam Holtz, age 32, of
40 Richie Rd., a school teacher; and Barbara Isola, age
52, of 34 Randlett St., an assistant district attorney in
Plymouth County.

All four have pulled papers as of Tuesday, accord-
ing to the city's Election Department.

Covais ran four years ago for school committee.
Durkin, Holtz and Isola would be making their first
runs for public office in Quincy.

The other three candidates for School Conmfiittee,
all of whom declared their candidacies months ago,
and have pulled papers, are:

Karl Roos, age 41, of 8 Park St., who works in the
pharmaceutical industry; Matthew Lockwood Mul-
laney, 39, of 180 Glendale Rd., a market manager for
Harvard Pilgrim's Massachusetts business; and Re-
becca Mc Williams, 26, of 24 Newcomb St., a licensed
architect.

Seven candidates would be required for a school
committee preliminary election. The top six candi-
dates in the preliminary would vie for the three seats
in the final election Nov. 3.

Q

IN WARD 4, incumbent councillor Jay Davis has
at least one challenger: First-time candidate Brian Pal-
mucci, age 31, of 138 Willard St., has already submit-
ted enough signatures to qualify for the city election.

Davis, a local attorney and current city council
president, is seeking a fourth two-year term. Palmucci
is a prosecutor for the State Department of Correction.
He served on the Pembroke School Committee before
moving to Quincy.

But a third candidate may be jumping into the Ward
4 race. Michael O'Connell, age 61, of 35 Ridge way
Ln., has taken papers out. O'Connell is a lifelong
Quincy resident and active in local youth hockey. He
too would be a first-time candidate.

a

POLITICAL JUNKIES should circle another date
on the city's election calendar: Monday, Sept. 14 at 5
p.m. is the last day and hour for all candidates to file
campaign finance reports with the City Clerk. Reports
would indicate what money candidates have raised
and spent from Jan. 1 through Aug. 31 of this year.
Election observers believe a candidate's ability to raise
money is a good barometer of support and potential
success at the ballot box.

Scenes From Yesterday

Hancock Square, Quincy, Mass

THIS 1908 POSTCARD shows Hancock Street looking
south from Granite Street towards School Street. The
only visible building in this view that is still extant is
the large Durgin and Merrill block on the right. Built in
1885, it was the second building in Quincy Center built
with red bricks. Today its facade is covered with siding.
The Greenleaf building just out of sight on the right was
I built 10 years before. In 1915, the dirt roadway shown

here was widened to 80 feet and paved with granite
cobblestones. It was resurfaced with bituminous con-
crete in 1920. Sanborn and Damon's Hardware store on
the left was located here for over 60 years. On the street
level at the right was the Quincy Department Store. To

Neighborhood Meeting Today On West Quincy Car Wash

Ward 4 City Councillor
Jay Davis will host a neigh-
borhood meeting today
(Thursday) regarding the
late-night hours of opera-
tion of the Super Clean Car
Wash located at the intersec-
tion of Copeland and Miller
Streets in West Quincy.

The meeting will be held
today (Thursday) at 12:30
p.m. in the Community
Room of the Drohan Apart-
ment Building at 170 Cope-

land St.

Davis said he has re-
ceived complaints from
neighbors regarding late-
night activity taking place at
the car wash.

"It amazes me that busi-
ness such as this are allowed
to operate at all hours of the
night without being held
accountable," Davis said.
The car wash was recently
renovated and installed a car
vacuum within feet of the

Drohan Apartments, which
houses a number of elderly
residents.

Because of the late-night
activity of the business, Da-
vis said he has requested that
the licensing board investi-
gate the matter and have the
owners of the car wash ap-
pear before the board.

"There are no employ-
ees at the business and the
sign on the d(K>r directs one
to call a Weymouth phone

number," Davis said. "It ir-
ritates me beyond belief that
we have worked so hard to
attract responsible business-
es to West Quincy and we
still have some businesses
that could care less about
working with neighbors."

The meeting will allow
neighbors to air their con-
cerns, which in turn with
be presented to the License
Board. For more informa-
tion, call 617-834-3945.

The Homestead is located
on Butler Road at the comer
of Hancock St., Quincy.

Dating from 1686, the
house is 322 years old. Dur-
ing the 17th and 1 8th centu-
ries, this mansion was con-
sidered the grandest estate
in Quincy. During the Revo-
lutionary War era, it was a
meeting place for such pa-
triots as Josiah Quincy, John
Hancock and John Adams. It

was the childhood home of
Dorothy Quincy Hancock,
the wife of John Hancock.

The Homestead is operat-
ed by the Colonial Dames of
Massachusetts in conjunc-
tion with the Massachusetts
Department of Conservation
and Recreation (DCR).

Additional public open
house dates this season are

John Quincy Adams Birthday
Celebration July 11 At Peace Field

A U.S. soldier and his
Braintree fiancee made the
most of his two-week leave
on July 4. when they wed
in an impromptu outdoor
ceremony on Independence
Day.

Sgt. Jason Race, a Whit-
man native, married his fi-
ancee. Kimberly Welch, at
a brief, outdoor ceremony
in the picturesque Quincy
marshes near Wollaston
Beach.

The wedding was offici-
ated by Quincy Justice of
the Peace Michelle Lydon,
who performed the ceremo-
ny for free.

"It's the least 1 could do
on Independence Day for a
young man who has served
his country." said Lydon.
who noted that Race, cur-
rently stationed at Fort
Drum in New York, has al-
ready served two tours of
duty in Iraq.

"1 considered it an honor
and a privilege to partici-
pate in this ceremony on
the Fourth of July," Lydon
added.

Welch, the owner of
Our Magical Beginnings

Bridgewater and Norton,
found herself scrambling
to pull together a wedding
ceremony after Race pro-

cy, was named to the Dean's

posed June 26 while home
on leave.

"We've been dating for
just over a year, but we've
known each other for years.'
Welch said. "July Fourth
was the only day during
Jason's leave that all of our
parents could be there, so 1
googled 'Quincy Justice of
the Peace' and found Mi-
chelle."

Welch's sons. Troy, and
Evan. 8. also attended the
wedding ceremony along
with a small contingent of
close family friends. Fol-
lowing the informal cer-
emony, the couple and their
children departed for a hon-
eymoon camping trip to
Point Sebago. Maine.

"1 think the Fourth of JuK
is an awesome anniversary
date," Welch said. "And I
can be sure that Jason will
never forget it'"

Surge In International M[arie*'s

Visitors Buoys Tourism

Kitctliieii

Com d From Page I

Peak, superintendent at the
Adams site.

"It's great to see full trol-
leys"

Peak said that even thun-
der and lightning didn't de-
ter some of the park's hardy
visitors. "Despite the weath-
er, they didn't retreat."

Keeping level is a ma-
jor accomplishment in this
economy. according to
Carey who said the city's
doing much better than the
state this year and noted that
other tourist bureaus, further
south in the state, have had
to lay off workers.

"We thought the weath-
er's going to kill (tourism)."
said Carey who has con-
cluded that the weather may
have helped draw people to

the city's attractions.

As for international visi-
tors. Carey said that touring
in the United States "is still
a cheaper option for them.
"We're still doing better
than the rest of the state."

"We are uniquely posi-
tioned because of the (Ad-
ams) mini-series and David
McCullough (books)." said
Carey while Peak described
special attractions and pro-
grams at the park this year.

One of the more unique
attractions is a wrought-iron
bench temporarily sited at
the far end of the park's gar-
dens.

The friendship bench
was created in the Ural
Mountains of Russia and
sent to the United States as
a symbol of the friendship

Police track graffiti re-
ports around Quincy, look-
ing for similar styles and
other evidence to connect

cases. The department has
been successful in tracking
some of the most serious of-
fenders. Keenan said.

established in 1807 by then
Ambassador John Quincy
Adams.

The bench, encrypted
with the message, "From
People to People" in Eng-
lish and in Russian, will be
transported to Alton, NH
next week after the celebra-
tion of Adams' 242nd birth-
day anniversary.

The park will offer a
host of other special events
through July and August,
according to Peak.

While tourism appears
to be steady this year, Car-
ey fears the worst is yet to
come as advertising funds
dry up for his bureau and
the other five bureaus on the
"Cultural Coast."

The six agencies have
been working in tandem to
attract visitors to all areas.

"We just have to tread wa-
ter," said Carey who didn't
take a raise. Carey's bud-
get has already been cut by
35%. State aid was chopped
by half and hotel and motel
receipts are down.

"We do a lot with a little.
We get creative," said Car-
ey, noting he has one part-
time aide and has begun
fund-raising efforts for the
agency.

The shame of it, said
Carey, is that every dollar
spent on advertising brings
in four dollars to the local
economy.

That's three dollars in in-
come that cities and towns
won't see next year, accord-
ing to Carey.

Mary's Crispy Oatmeal Cookies

If you like cookies that are crispy, you will
love this recipe for oatmeal ccx)kies. And if
you believe the hype about including oatmeal
in your diet will lower cholesterol, it will be
healthy as well as delicious.

Anyway, last week at a luncheon attended
by a group of my first cousins, one of our
close friends Mary Mariano (who is a cousin
by love and friendship) gave me this great
recipe.

CRISPY OATMEAL COOKIES
2 cups flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
additional sugar for coating
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup margarine

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 1/2 cups oatmeal

1/2 cup. finely chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 375 degrees

Mix the first six ingredients. Add the
margarine eggs and vanilla. Beat well and
then stir in the oats and nuts. Form into small
balls and roll in the additional sugar. If you
prefer a larger cookie as 1 do,just make them
according to your preference.

Place on ungreased cookie sheet and bake
for 10 to 12 minutes.

If making the balls small they spread
so place about 12 of them on one cookie
sheet.

This recipe makes about six dozen cook-
ies.

Director: More Children Need
Aid From Veterans' Services

Thomas Siansbury, direc-
tor of Quincy Veterans' Ser-
vices, this week described
an increasing number of
children needing the help
from Veterans Services.

Just a year ago, Stans-
bury said, "We only had six
children," while last week.

the number had surged to 25
from seven to eight different
families.

Stansbury said that veter-
ans' services provides coun-
seling so that applicants can
seek financial help for food,
clothing or rent.

"We help them go

through all the agencies,"
Stansbury said.

Most of the current ap-
plicants are veterans of the
Vietnam War, according to
Stansbury who said most
of them have lost their jobs,
but still have families to
help support.

Rx Medicine Drop-Off Deemed Success Q uincy 2000 , QB A Merger

The Mayor's Drug Task
Force and Quincy's End
Drug Abuse Now (EDAN)
recently joined forces with
the Quincy Police and the
DPW to rid the community
of nearly 2,000 doses of
dangerous controlled sub-
stances.

More than 50 residents
showed-up at the Police
Department to dispose of
thousands of unwanted and
expired prescription and
non-prescription medicines.
These and other highly ad-
dictive prescription drugs
were cleaned out from med-
icine cabinets in the city's
first Rx Medicine Drop-off.
Participants were greet-
ed by Dale Freeman, chair
and co-founder of EDAN.
. and instructed to leave the
material with Quincy po-
lice officers Mike Kelly and
John Lechte.

Volunteer pharmacist
Vicki Tang of the CVS
pharmacy on Southern Ar-
tery performed sorting and
counting. Then, the mate-
rial was placed into the ap-
propriate containers for de-
struction.

The "drop-off' event
grew out of concerns by
members of the Mayor's
Drug Task Force that many
of today's drug addicts be-
gan their abuse by pilfer-
ing drugs at home. Studies
show that children can be-
gin a lifetime of addiction
to drugs by simply open-
ing their medicine cabinet.
Drugs such as OxyContin,
oxycodone, hydrocodone,
morphine, codeine, Perco-
cet, Darvocet, Vicodin and
Lortab have all been linked
to opiate addiction.

MAYOR TOM KOCH speaks with Det. Lt. Pat CJIynn, head of
the Quincy Police Department's drug unit, at the Prescription

Kennedy Senior Center:
A $13 Million Renovation

The half-century old
building, now home to Ken-
nedy Senior Center at 440
East Squantum, North Quin-
cy, underwent a $ 1 .3 million
renovation and costly sewer
rehabilitation before last
week's dedication.

Originally called the
Myles Standish Elementary
School, the l5,000-sq. ft.
structure was built in 1957
on 1 1 acres near the comer
of Quincy Shore Drive.

After a dip in enroll-
ment, the school closed in
1980. The following year,
the Quincy Lodge of Elks
began using the building for
their community service or-
ganization.

In 1994, the Beechwood
Community Center opened
an intergenerational ser-
vice center which closed
last summer when Mayor

Thomas Koch reclaimed the
building for the senior cen-
ter.

Tom Clasby, Executive
Director of the Council on
Aging, said the center will
offer senior's social, educa-
tional, sports, forums, and
health programs in the build-
ing which features a coffee
shop, gymnasium restaurant
facility, computer room and
game room with card tables,
a pool table, and a donated
Ping-Pong table to come.

Seniors are, also, offered
tax and legal services such
as deed searches through
William O'Donnell, Nor-
folk Register of Deeds, who
said seniors can search their
deeds and property at the
center, "Our computers can
tie into the office in Ded-
ham."

'T am so thrilled," Dorelle

Howe, 69, of Quincy Shore
Drive, said last week of the
new center as she echoed
the voices of hundreds of
seniors enjoying the center
last week.

Koch's choice of the for-
mer school was not unani-
mous among some former
city officials who had cho-
sen Merry mount Park and
the Department of Public
works site for a senior cen-
ter, cifing the North Quincy
location as inconvenient.

Clasby counters those
critics by noting that any lo-
cation would be difficult for
some senior citizen bloc and

New City Website Launches Today

The city's new website,
ww.w.Qumo:MA.vgyv, will
launch today (Thursday)
allowing residents for the
first time to pay bills online,
receive e-mail alerts, and
streamline their requests for
city services, among dozens
of new features.

"This kind of platform
is long overdue, as we are
finally putting state-of-the-
art technology to use for
our residents," said Mayor
Thomas Koch, "it will make
it many times easier for resi-
dents to do business with the
city, which should always
be one of our most impor-
tant goals."

The new site changes
the city's web address from
the clunky www.ci .guincy.

ma. us to the simple www,
Qumy.>'JVlA.iL>v, and pro-
vides easy-to-use navigation
t(x>ls so visitors can find in-
formation quickly.

A regularly updated cal-
endar of city meetings and
events, an e-mail newsletter
and alert system, the ability
to pay bills online, and doz-
ens of new downloadable
forms and applications are
among the site's new fea-
tures.

"Our ongoing improve-
ments to the city's net-
work will make the site run
smoothly and quickly for
most users, and this plat-
form will allow folks to find
what they are looking for
within a couple of mouse

clicks," said Charles Phelan,
the Director of Information
Technology.

The site also boasts a
new system for submitting
and managing service re-
quests, from filling potholes
to replacing streetlights.
The system will allow offi-
cials to streamline requests
to the right department, and
provides a tracking compo-
nent that will follow every
request until it is closed.

The new site was de-

signed and created by Cy-
clone Design of Qumcy and
Blue Note Technology of
Somerville, and the firms
spent several months work-
ing with the city's team to
implement the new technol-
ogy

"Our IT team and our
partners from Cyclone and
Blue Note have created one
of the best government sites
in Massachusetts, and I am
very grateful for all of their
work," Koch said.

A Job Well Done

On Monday, June 29, at approximately 4:30 p.m.. Of-
ficers Joseph Paccioretti and Barry DeFranco were dis-
patched to the playground at
O'Rourke Field for a call of a
larceny, with the suspect still
on scene. Uj)on arrival, the of-
ficers were flagged down by an
adult male (father), who stated
that an adult male suspect
took $12 from his 12-year-old
daughter. The father said his
daughter called him and he
went directly to her location,
then called the Police.

He brought his daughter and
her two witness/friends over
to the officer. The daughter/

victim said that they were too afraid to confront the man
so she called her dad. The victim said that she placed her
purse on the ground near the swing set while they played.
One of the girls saw a man approach the purse and begin
to rummage through it. She told her friends and they
watched as he removed money from the purse, then put
the purse back down and walk away.

The victim said she waited for the suspect to walk
away, then picked up her purse and confirmed that her
$12 was nussing. She stated she had a $10 bill that was
folded multiple times along with two $1 bills. The girls
told the officers that the man was still in the park and
was over by the swings where three small children were
playing.

The officers approached the suspect and informed him
of the victim's statement. The suspect denied taking the
money or touching the purse. Officer Paccioretti then
asked the suspect for an ID and as he reached into both
pants pockets, he pulled a bundle of money from his
left pocket along with keys and a driver's license.

The officer observed the money was folded in half. He
also observed the suspect remove a hand full of crumpled
paper from his right pocket. One of the papers was a $10
bill that was folded multiple times.

The 12-year-old victim, who was standing nearby,
pointed at the $10 bill in the suspect's right hand and
said, "That's it." The suspect claimed it was his.

Officer Paccioretti asked the suspect why it was sepa-
rate from the money in his left pocket and folded differ-
ently but he did not answer, then put the money in his
right hand and placed it back in his pocket. The victim's
father stated that he would be satisfied if his daughter got
her money back and would not press charges. The sus-
pect did not respond to this offer.

Officer DeFranco offered the suspect the opportuni-
ty again to give back the money and be on his way, but
he refused. The officers then approached the suspect and
informed him he was under arrest and as they were about
to handcuff him, the suspect said that he changed his
mind and was willing to give the money back.

The suspect, a 27-year-old Boston resident, was arrest-
ed and charged with "larceny from a person." The mon-
ey was photographed as evidence and then returned to
the victim.

In this case, the victims were very observant of their
surroundings and once the crime occurred, they collec-
tively took the right course of action by not confronting
the suspect, but instead, contacting an adult. The parent
responded immediately, assessed the situation, and then,
using great restraint, called the Police. These children
were well educated in handling a potentially volatile inci-
dent and minimized their own risk by moving away from
the suspect until help arrived. All parents and concerned
adults should take this opportunity to discuss this case as
well as other scenarios with children so that they too will
take the best measures.

Nice Work!

More Tax Breaks For Homeowners In 2009 And Beyond

(ARA) - Homeownership
and green improvements
will be more affordable for
more Americans in 2009,
thanks to several provisions
in the American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act. The
changes will put more mon-
ey in taxpayers' pockets and
allow homeowners to save
thousands of dollars over
the next several years.

The First-time Homebuy-
er Credit has been extended
and increased to qualifying
individuals who purchase a
home in 2009 before Dec. 1 .
First-time homebuyers are
defined as those who have
never owned a principal
residence or who have not
owned a principal residence
at any time during the three

I dow unit air
conditToner keeps trip-
ping the circuit breaker.
Sometimes this happens
right after I turn it on;
sometimes it runs for a
little while and then trips

thing I have to cool my

A^A circuit break-
• er "trips" (the

on another appliance that's
plugged into the same circuit,
an overload occurs. Here's
how to find out what else
is plugged into that circuit:
Unplug the air conditioner,
plug a lamp into each outlet
and switch the circuit off and
on while a friend watches to
see if the lamp goes off and
on. Do this with every out-
let in your apartment, noting
which outlet corresponds to
which circuit.

If another appliance is
sharing the same circuit as
the air conditioner, plug that
appliance into an outlet be-

purchase.

For 2008 and 2009 tax
returns, the credit is equal to
10 percent of the home pur-
chase price, up to $8,000.
It phases out when modi-
fied adjusted gross income
is $75,000 for an individual
or $150,000 for joint filers.
Married taxpayers must
both qualify as "first-time
homebuyers" in order to re-
ceive the full credit.

Taxpayers who claimed
the full $8,000 First-time
Homebuyer Credit on their
2008 federal return cannot
claim it on their 2009 return.
Those who have not claimed
the credit should determine
which year to use it based
on your income. If you
expect your income to de-
crease in 2009, it will likely
make more sense to claim
the credit on your 2009 re-
turn rather than your 2008
return.

The only scenario in
which the credit must be paid
back is if the home ceases to
be the owners' principal res-
idence within 36 months of
the purchase date. Then the
full credit amount must be
repaid on the federal return
for that tax year.

The credit was initially
created to be claimed after
a home is purchased, but
the Obama administration
is now allowing qualifying
taxpayers to use it to cover
certain purchasing costs.
Homebuyers with mortgages
backed by the Federal Hous-
ing Administration may be
eligible to receive advances
on the credit, which could
be used for closing costs,
fees and additional money
for a down payment beyond
the FHA's required 3.5 per-
cent minimum.

Anyone can apply for
an FHA -backed mortgage,

regardless of income. How-
ever, there are limits on the
size of the mortgage, and
lenders may charge a fee for
the credit. Some states are
also offering similar pro-
grams.

The new stimulus plan
also includes tax credits
equal to 30 percent, up to
$1,500, for certain energy-
efficient improvements to
residential properties. The
Residential Energy Property
Credit can be claimed on
2009 and 2010 returns for
improvements such as add-
ing insulation or installing
energy-efficient windows,
doors, or heating and air
conditioning systems. Big-
ger improvements involving
alternative energy equip-
ment such as solar hot wa-
ter headers, geothermal heat
pumps and wind turbines
may be claimed on 2009
to 2016 returns under the

Residential Energy Efficient
Property Credit.

In addition to homeown-
er tax breaks, the 2009 act
includes several new or in-
creased credits and deduc-
tions. You can easily leam
which provisions you may
qualify for on your 2009
taxes by answering simple
questions in TaxACT. Pre-
view versions of TaxACT
2009 software will be avail-
able in October, allowing
you to plan ahead and get
a head start on your return.
When you're ready to pre-
pare and file your 2009 re-
turn, TaxACT will help you
complete the correct forms
for the credits in a matter of

when the circuit frequently

an appliance that draws
a lot of power, like an air
conditioner, a space heater
or a microwave oven, you
should pay attention.

The most likely cause of
your problem is that the air

the amperage allotted to that
circuit, and when you turn

It needs to make sure that
the circuit itself isn't faulty.

HOME TIP: To cool a
room more efficiently, don't
turn the air conditioner on
full blast right away. In-
stead, let it run at a low or
medium setting for about
20 minutes so the condenser
has time to work, then tum

(ARA) - Energy effi-
ciency has gained national
importance and window
replacement is recognized
as one pathway to aid in en-
ergy independence and the
reduction of harmful global
emissions.

Choosing replacement
windows with energy-sav-
ing benefits is simple and
the federal government also
made it less expensive for
homeowners with the sign-
ing of the American Recov-
ery and Reinvestment Act of
2009.

The bill includes the op-
portunity for homeowners to
claim a tax credit of 30 per-
cent of the cost of eligible
energy-efficient products
to a maximum of $1,500
per household for 2009 and
2010 combined when used
for remodeling and replace-
ment. According to the IRS,
a tax credit is a dollar-for-
dollar reduction in your tax
liability and can be deduct-
ed directly from your taxes
owed.

While energy efficient
replacement windows are
included in this tax credit,
not all replacement windows
will qualify. Paul Delahunt,
president of Renewal by An-
dersen, says, given the new
tax credit, now is the best
time to replace your leaky,
worn-out windows. But he
also cautions homeowners
to do their homework to
make sure the windows they
purchase will qualify.

To qualify, windows
must provide high levels of
energy efficiency in two cat-
egories: reduced heat loss
and reduced heat gain. The
measurement for heat loss
is called U-Factor and the
measurement for heat gain is
called Solar Heat Gain Co-
efficient, or SHGC. To meet
the performance require-
ments, the window or door
must have both a U-Factor
and SHGC rating equal to or
less than 0.30 in all climate
zones in the U.S.

When comparing win-
dows for energy perfor-

mance - and the 2009/2010
tax credit — be sure to check
the National Fenestration
Rating Council (NFRC) la-
bel that is displayed on the
product. This label displays
the U-Factor and SHGC rat-
ings for the window or pa-
tio door. If the product does
not have this label, then the
unit does not have a certified
NFRC value.

Qualifying replacement
windows must be purchased
and installed in a primary
residence between January
1, 2009 and December 31,
2010. While quality installa-
tion is a critical component
of any successful window
replacement project, instal-
lation costs are not included
in the 2009/2010 tax credit.
Your sales receipt should
break out qualifying product
costs separately.

In addition to your sales
receipt, you will also need
to save the NFRC label
from each window or the
Manufacturer's Certifica-
tion Statement with your tax

documents.

Renewal by Andersen
makes it easy for homeown-
ers to take advantage of the
new federal tax credit with
its extensive selection of
windows and patio doors
with glass packages that
meet or exceed the perfor-
mance criteria to be eligible
for the credit.

In fact, Delahunt says,
virtually all Renewal by
Andersen windows with
High-Performance Lx)w-E4
SmartSun glass are eligible
for the tax credit. These
same windows with Smart-
Sun glass are up to 47 per-
cent more energy efficient
in winter and up to 70 per-
cent more energy efficient in
summer compared to ordi-
nary dual pane glass ~ mak-
ing a big impact on reducing
your energy bills.

Smart Strategies To Increase Home Sale Profits

(ARA) - The proposition
of selling a home is getting
better with each passing
day according to a recently
released report from the Na-
tional Association of Real-

Dollars
and $en$e

by David Uffington

Low-Cost

Netbooks Have

Some Drawbacks

The netbook craze has
swung into high gear as
more and more people tote
these small, inexpensive de-
vices everywhere they go.
Designed for Web brows-
ing and e-mailing, netbooks
have a lot to recommend
them, but they're not minia-
ture laptops. Before you buy,
consider the pros and cons.

Pro:

• Relatively inexpensive
~ There are a few now at
the $300 to $400 mark, with
most not going over $500.

• Easy to carry ~ Net-
books are lightweight, which
is helpful if you travel fre-
quently. Most netbooks are
in the 2-3 pound range.

• Good for the basics - If
your computer usage is lim-
ited to checking e-mail and
surfing the Internet, a net-
book is something to con-
sider.

Con;

• Small screen - Net-
books come in two gen-
eral screen sizes, 8.9 inches
and 10.1 inches. No matter
which you choose, they're
still small. If you spend more
than an hour reading online,
you'll want the larger of the
two sizes.

• Small typing pad - If
you're going from a full-
size computer keyboard to a
netbook, check the feel of a
number of netbooks and de-

tors. If you need to sell your
home, a few smart strategies
can help you increase your
profits.

A number of real estate
pundits are pointing to the

cide if you can easily make
the switch. If you do a lot of
writing, extended use of the
small pad could be a prob-
lem.

• No DVD player - If
you have beloved software
on CD, how is it going to
be installed on a netbook? If
it's paid-for software, many
companies have downloads
available from their sites.
Not all products, however,
are available this way.

• Battery life - This is a
big issue, one where some of
the netbook manufacturers
have fallen short. "Cell" size
seems to be the current form
of advertising how long a
battery will last, but don't be
fooled. A "six-cell" battery
could be 4,400 milliampere-
hour, or it could be 5,200 or
5,900 mAH, a big difference
in how long the battery will
work.

Additionally, no one can
accurately predict just how
long a battery will last with-
out knowing the specifics
of how the netbook will be
used. Beware getting a ma-
chine with a short run-time
battery and expect to up-
grade it later. That upgraded
battery could cost nearly 40
percent of the cost of the
netbook.

Best bet: Check online re-
views by actual users before
you buy. That will tell you
more, in most cases, than all
the slick advertising.

recent decline in home in-
ventory and the fact that
interest rates have increased
on the 30-year fixed mort-
gage as a positive endorse-
ment of a healthier housing
market.

Joanne Sebby, a licensed
real estate broker, and oper-
ator of a local Two Men and
a Truck moving franchise,
believes she's benefitting
from what could be the start
of a real estate "bloom," if
not a full "boom."

"Bargain hunters are
beginning to make moves
on homes that are still way
undervalued" Sebby says.
"The key for sellers is to get
creative in marketing your
home's offerings so you can
become one of those homes
that get a look, and hopeful-
ly sell your house in a rea-
sonable amount of time."

While the real estate out-
look is the best it's been in
recent memory, home loans
are still more difficult to
come by and home values

are down an average of 20
percent, according to the
NAR. It's likely that if you
are selling your house to-
day, you'll likely do so at
the cost of higher profits
that you may have realized
in healthier markets.

Regardless, Sebby sug-
gests there are a number of
creative ways home sellers
can mitigate their losses on
the sale.

"Most home sales in-
volve some service-oriented
companies such as moving
companies, carpet cleaners,
painters or other services,"
she says.

Sebby suggests sellers
need to think of their bottom
line when selecting service
companies in order to maxi-
mize profits on their home,
and consider pitching in to
keep costs down.

"Determine what bud-
get you have to work with
and be up front with the
people providing you with
estimates," Sebby says. "I'll

often counsel people who
call our moving company to
maybe box and label every-
thmg themselves, or have
all the boxes collected in
the room closest to the front
door If there's a number we
have to work with, we'll
make suggestions on how
to make it work to suit their
needs."

Sebby suggests using the
same tactics with home in-
spectors, painters or other
service personnel.

"Do a little research and
find what portion of the
work you can comfortably
do yourself. If you're sav-
ing money along the way
it's going to impact your
profit on the house. A little
bit here and there can really
add up."

Brig Sorber, president
and chief executive officer
of Two Men and a Truck
franchised moving company
- believes the current hous-
ing market provides more
opportunity than risk.

"As a business owner,
you look at your operations
a little closer and ideally
come away with a clearer
understanding of what your
company needs to do to stay
com[5etitive." Sorber says.
"The same pnnciple applies
to homeowners looking to
sell In an optimal market,
a buyer may just scan the
Internet, find a icKal mover
and sign on the dotted line
Today's customer is more
aware; they've done com-
petitive research on what
to expect from a legitimate
moving company, and that
benefits those of us who val-
ue long-term relationships
with our customers "

Chances are, even sell-
ers with the best intentions
won't realize the full value
of their home in today's
market However, as Sebby
suggests, there's no harm in
optimizing your profits with
a little extra effort and a do-
it-yourself approach.

(ARA) - The bathroom,
often a place of relaxation
and comfort, can also be a
dangerous space. Whether
your family members are 3
years old or 93, the risk of
getting hurt in the bathroom
is the same for all ages.

According to the U.S.
Census Bureau, the number
of multigenerational house-
holds, consisting of three or
more generations of a fam-
ily, is on the rise in America
— up to nearly four million.
And, creating a safe home
that meets everyone's needs
while still being stylish can
be difficult.

So whether it's bath time
for your little ones or their
grandparents, the following
tips will help you to create
a safe bathroom that is fash-
ionable and inviting.

T\ib Lock Down

Getting into and out of
the tub safely is key to a re-
laxing bath experience for
both children and adults. To
prevent slipping, easy-to-
install and stylish Premium
SecureLock Tub Grips from
Home Care by Moen are es-
sential in lending a stable,
helping hand. The design
features an easy-locking
lever to ensure a tight fit to
most tubs without harming
the tub surface. An ergo-
nomically designed handle
features an anti-slip grip to
provide optimal support and
comfort. Plus the innovative
design offers easy, no-tool
installation and removal in
seconds.

while it's filling up may lead
to accidental overflow, leav-
ing a hazardous pool of wa-
ter on the floor. An alarm is
the perfect way to alert im-
patient bathers - young and
old — when it's bath time
Designed in many shapes
and colors to coordinate with
any decor, the bath alarm
notifies you when the water
has reached its limit. Some
models, such as the Primo
Bathtub Thermometer, also
include a water temperature
screen to help keep sensitive
fingers or toes from getting
burned.

Put an End
To Slipping and Sliding
Slips and slides are fun
for outside play on hot days,
however, they can easily
be created in your bathtub
if bath treads are not prop-
erly placed on the bottom
of the tub. Bath treads pro-
vide stability and reduce
slippage while showenng.
These simple stnps are in-
expensive, come in differ-
ent, decorative shapes such
as stars, shells and fish, and
can be found at any home or
hardware store.

Shower Safely
Whether it is shower
time for toddlers or teenag-
ers, parents or patnarchs, a

handheld shower is the per-
fect option for everyone.
Creative Storage
and Decorating

As one of the smallest
rcxims in the home, the bath-
room can become the culprit
of disorganization and trip-
ping hazards. To get a grip
on organization, install an
over-the-toilet shelving unit
for extra storage. Tr\ per-
sonalizing each individual's
space in the bathri)t>m by
designating drawers or as-
signing colorful bath tov\-
els for shower time. Add-
ing bathroom accessones
such as towel rings and robe
hooks can help coordinate
the rtx^m and also keep wet
towels and clothes off the
floor.

Lighting The Way
To Style and Safety
Midnight trips to the
bathroom are common for
many including children,
expectant mothers and the
eldedy. Keeping a night
light plugged into an outlet
in the bathroom can keep
sleepy heads awake and pre-
vent accidents. Some night-
lights are mofion activated
and some come on as soon
as light disappears.

American Legion Regular Season Ends July 12

Quincy & Morrisette In
Contention For Playoffs

By SEAN BRENNAN

The clock is ticking for
Morrisette and Quincy Le-
gion in their quests for a
spot in the five-team Dis-
trict 6 East American Le-
gion playoffs. The 22-game
regular season is scheduled
to conclude on July 12, and
as of press time, both teams
still held a legitimate shot
at making the post-season
tournament.

As of July 6, Morrisette,
which finished last week
with a disappointing 0-4
record, including losses to
Stoughton (9-5), Cohas-
set (6-5), Milton (5-1) and
Jamaica Plain (9-5 in extra
innings), was in third-place
in the ten-team league with
an 8-8 overall record. Mor-
risette has six games remain-
ing on its schedule and that
includes two games against
city rival Quincy Legion.

Quincy Legion, currently
in seventh place with a 5-10
overall record, has turned it
on as of late, and last week
finished at 2-1 with victo-
ries over Braintree (4-2) and
Hyde Park (7-0) and lost to
Milton, 9-2. Quincy Legion
has seven games remaining
on the docket.

The overall District 6 East
American Legion standings
are as follows: Milton, 13-1;
Jamaica Plain, 12-4; Mor-
risette, 8-8; Braintree, 7-5;
Weymouth, 7-6; Cohasset,
6-5; Holbrwk, 5-8-1; Quin-
cy, 5-10; Stoughton, 3-11-2
and Hyde Park, 2-10-1.

"We had a tough week
and really didn't get any
breaks, but with six games
left on our schedule, which
for us ends on Saturday, and
including two against Quin-
cy, we have a shot at get-
ting into the playoffs," said
Morrisette 's Bill Marchand.
"There is a lot of games
left to be played by the
other nine teams as the bad
weather has cancelled many
games this season, and with
some of the teams below us
in the standings still hav-
ing yet reach that 22-game
requirement, it could be an
interesting week. There are
sure to be a lot of double-
headers as these teams try
and get all their games in by
July 12.

"There is even a chance,
if certain scenarios play out,
that both us and Quincy
could find ourselves playing
in the playoffs."

For Morrisette, last week
was frustrating to say the
least. The team opened the
week by dropping a 9-5 deci-
sion to Stoughton; followed
that up with a tough-to-take
6-5 loss to Cohasset; played
top-ranked Milton close be-
fore dropping a 5-1 game
and closed out the week
with a 9-5 extra-inning loss
to Jamaica Plain.

"That was a tough week,"
Marchand added. "We lost
a game in the heavy fog to
Cohasset, played Milton
close but came up short and
after scoring late to send the
game to extras against JP
we gave up four runs in the
eighth inning and lost. We
are still hitting, but we need
to get healthy pitching-wise
for us to continue to make a
push for a playoff spot."

After Sunday, the final
day of the regular season,
this muddled District 6 East
American Legion playoff
picture will be settled; Mor-
risette, Quincy Legion and
the rest of the eight teams
vying for one of the five cov-
eted spots just need Mother
Nature to do her part and let
it happen.

Wins Over Hanson & Canton

QYB'S 14-Under Team 2-0 In
District 8 Tournament Play

The Quincy Youth Base-
ball 14-Under All-Star base-
ball team opened play in the
District 8 Travel All-Star
tournament playoffs with a
2-0 record. Quincy knocked
off Hanson (8-2) and Can-
ton (5-0) and they were
scheduled to play against
Cohasset in a battle of unde-
feated teams Tuesday night
when the team's quest for a
district championship was
to continue.

In the District 8 playoff
opener, Quincy 's Tommy
McDonald threw a com-
plete game four-hitter, al-
lowing two unearned runs
and striking out six Hanson
batters. McDonald received
offensive support from
Rudy Tryon (three hits,
two RBI, two runs scored),
Dan Cobban (three hits) and
Matt Davis (four stolen bas-
es, two runs scored). Patrick
Verhault (RBI), Josh Hay-
ward (hit), Andrew Jaehnig
(hit) and Dave Joyce (RBI)

also contributed to Quincy's
offensive attack.

Defensively, Jason

Pekkinen (third base),
Joyce, Verhault and Cobban
played well in the infield
against Hanson.

In Game Two against
Canton, Dan Cobban fol-
lowed up with a solid pitch-
ing performance of his own
as Quincy won, 5-0. Cob-
ban shutout Canton by al-
lowing just four singles and
striking out seven batters;
he also picked off a runner
at second base and hel{>ed
his own cause with a RBI
single and a sacrifice fly.

Patrick Verhault finished
with two hits and two RBI,
Mike Gallotta had two hits,
Andrew Currie singled , stole
four bases and scored three
runs, Matt Davis doubled
and Rudy Tryon and Josh
Hayward each had a hit to
lead the Quincy offense.

Defensively, Hayward
made three nice plays in

right field; Brian Fahey
played well at third base
and Andrew Jaehnig threw
out a potential base stealer
in the first inning.

Earlier this summer, the
QYB Under- 14 team scored
an exciting 3-1 -comeback
victory over Kingston in the
All-Star Summer Baseball
League. Dan Cobban erased
a 1-0 deficit with a game-
winning three-run homer
to leftfield. Rudy Tryon
pitched four shutout innings;
Mike (jallotto picked up the
win in relief and Tommy
McDonald came in to pick
up the save in relief.

Matt Davis (two hits,
run), Tryon (hit), Verhault
(hit) and TJ Hobin (hit)
contributed to the win at the
plate. Brian Fahey played a
solid game at third base.

Jaehnig)

The rainy weather may
make it seem like summer
has yet to arrive, but it ac-
tually has, and before you
know it the school year will
be starting up again, and
with that so will the 2009
fall sports season.

The Quincy Public

ment has already organized
and set-up dates, locations,

39 City Champions Qualified For State Meet

Four Quincy Qualifiers Win Titles
At Hershey's State Championships

In the middle of June,
the Quincy Recreation De-
partment held its annual
Hershey's Track and Field
City Championships. Thir-
ty-nine of these Quincy city
champions qualified for
the Hershey's State Meet,
which was held on June 27
at Nashoba Regional High
School in Bolton, Massa-
chusetts.

Out of the 39 Quincy
city champions, four of
the qualifiers won the state
championships in their re-
spective events.

sion, Quincy 's Michael
Mullaney won the state title
in the 800-meter run with a
time of 2:36.81.

In the Boys 13-14 divi-
sion, Quincy's Mark Chan-
dler won the state title in the
Standing Long Jump with a
distance of eight feet, four
inches.

In the Girls 9-10 divi-
sion, Quincy's Lauren Pet-
rie won the state title in the

QMC Recognized For Excellence In End-Of-Life Care

Quincy Medical Center
was recently presented the
2009 Excellence in End-of-
Life Care Award by Beacon
Hospice Inc.

With this award. Beacon
Hospice recognized QMC
for its commitment and de-
livery of the highest quality
end-of-life care services to
its patients.

Quincy Medical Center
was nominated and chosen
to receive this award be-
cause of its demonstrated
ability and performance in:
compassionate patient care;
promoting access to the hos-
pice benefit; effective con-
tinuing education; and pro-
fessional team work with a
hospice provider.

"The QMC team con-
tinually strives to do what
is best for the patients and
families who come through
their doors," says Beth Kel-
ly, Beacon Hospice Director

Accepting the Excellence in End-of-Life Care Award on behalf of Quincy Medical Center are

Maintain Your Health While Traveling This Summer

(ARA) - Summer has ar-
rived, which means many
people are looking forward
to traveling on a relax-
ing vacation. Whether that
includes spending a long
weekend at the beach, stay-
ing close to home with fam-
ily and friends or jetting off
to a unique destination, it's
important to remember not
to take a vacation from your
health.

Traveling, indulging in
your favorite foods or tak-
ing some time off from your
normal exercise routine may
seem like typical vacation
behavior, but all can have a
direct effect on your health -
especially when it comes to
digestion.

Although meant to be
relaxing, vacation can pres-
ent great temptations result-
ing in health consequences.
Summer getaways and trav-
el plans could be miserable
if you're feeling bloated,
dealing with cramps or other
gastrointestinal issues.

"Summer is a very busy
time for my patients as many
of them are traveling on va-
cation," says gastroenter-
ologist Dr. Cynthia Yoshida.
"Therefore, I remind all of
them to take care of their di-
gestive systems, so that they
don't spend their vacation
time dealing with uncom-
fortable issues, such as con-
stipation."

No matter how you spend

your summer vacation, there
are simple things you can
do to keep your health on
track. If you plan to spend a
lot of time in a car or on a
plane, drink plenty of fluids
to keep yourself hydrated.
Enjoy your favorite foods
and dining out, but remem-
ber to incorporate some
healthy items like fruits or
vegetables into your meals.
Also, be sure to stay active
with simple activities such
as swimming or relaxing
walks on the beach.

"However, if you do
suffer from occasional
constipation while travel-
ing you can also try over-
the-counter remedies, like
MiraLAX(R)," Yoshida

says. "MiraLAX naturally
balances the water in your
digestive system without
the uncomfortable side ef-
fects some other laxatives
can cause, so you can re-
sume a relaxing, enjoyable
vacation."

To help keep your diges-
tion on track even when you
travel MiraLAX laxative
now cohies in single dose
packets for a convenient,
portable way to take relief
with you anywhere.

Summer is a wonderful
time to relax, but it's im-
portant to take the time to
make smart choices for your
health, and enjoy your sum-
mer vacation.

OBESITY INCREASES PERIODONTAL-DISEASE RISK

In its mild form, gingivitis
(gum disease) may only lead to
bleeding gums. However, if not
treated, gingivitis can progress
to a more severe stage, perio-
dontitis, in which bacteria-laded
plaque provokes an inflam-
matory response in gums. To
avoid the potential of Infection
and tooth loss, it is important to
identify causes of gum disease,
as well as to diagnose and treat
it. With this in mind, researchers
have recently found that obese
adults are at higher risk of gin-
givitis than people of normal
weight. In fact, over the course
of the 16-year study, otjesity
was found to be associated
with a 29 percent increase of
periodontal disease. The com-
nx)n denominator is thought to
be inflammation.

Poor oral hygiene habits
such as not brushing and f toss-
ing on a daily basis also make it
easier for gingivitis to develop.

A family history of dental dis-
ease can also be a contribut-
ing factor to the development
of gingivitis. We utilize all
available resources and pro-
cedures to provide the dental
health care our patients de-
serve and expect. When was
the last time you had a com-
prehensive oral examination?
We're located at 44 Greenleaf
Street, where we're currently
accepting new patients. Please
call 617-47^220 to schedule
an appointment. We're here
to help. We offer the services
of anesthesiology with a fully
trained and qualified anesthe-
siologist. Visit us on the web
at www.quincydentist.com.
PS. In addition to the obe-
sity link witfi gum disease in
the study mentioned atjove,
a waist measurement of 40
inches or more in men was
linked to a higher risk of
heart disease.

HEALTH

Chiropractor

A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

If you run or walk regularly
to keep fit, and experience
chronic lower-back pain as
a result, it may be that the
mechanics of your stride lie at
the root of your problem. People
who overpronate have feet that
roll inward more than the ideal
15% with each step. As a result,
the whole leg rotates inward.
This action exerts a pull on the
stabilizing muscles in the hip
that attach to the lower part
of the spine. The chiropractor
can diagnose overpronation by
having patients walk a few steps
in their normal strides. If it is
then indicated that overpronation
is causing lower-back pain,
steps can be taken to correct
the problem and alleviate the
imbalances it causes.

Instead of treating the
symptoms of a disease, we

look for the cause of the
condition, so as not to let the
underlying problem foster and
expand. We not only address
low back pain, but a variety
of other health conditions as
well. At FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CHIROPRACTIC, we are
trained and licensed to treat the
entire neuromusculoskeletal
system and can help people lead
healthier lives by focusing on
wellness and prevention. For
professional chiropractic care we
invite you to call 617.472.4220
to schedule an appointment.
Seek chiropractic care and try
to exercise daily. We're located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass.. we can offer you
exceptional chiropractic service.

PS. People with flat feet
usually overpronate .

helpful for some. Cymbalta
and Lyrica are two medicines
that have won Food and Drug
Administration approval for
treatment of this condition.

Exercise is important, but it
must be started at a low level
and gradually increased. Water
exercises are well -tolerated.
If a person can't keep up with
the rest of the class, he or she
shouldn't try to do so. Keep
exercise at a level that's toler-
able.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I have what the doctors call
black hairy tongue. Can you
tell me about it? -Anon.

ANSWER: Black hairy
tongue, aside from its looks,
is an innocent condition that
comes from the elongation
of tongue papillae, tiny pro-
jections from the tongue's
surface. Gently brushing the
tongue three times a day with
toothpaste, baking soda or 3
percent hydrogen peroxide can
usually get rid of it. If it's not
gone in a month, return to the
dentist or doctor for a follow-

Fibromyalgia
Frustrates Athlete

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I
have recently been diagnosed
with fibromyalgia. Before
I was diagnosed, I eixjoyed
playing many sports and was
a very physically active per-
son. Since then, I have had to
stop most of my activities. I
wish I could be as active as I
once was. Every time I try to
play or exercise, my muscles
ache unbearably. How can I
get back to where 1 was? -
R.C.

ANSWER: (R.C. is a high-
school-age young woman.)

Fibromyalgia causes people
to retreat from their usual ac-
tivities and makes them yearn
for the days before it struck.

It's a peculiar disorder,
with more unknown about it
than known. Its cause hasn't
been discovered. More women
come down with it than men
- another unexplained fact.
No lab test detects it. X-rays,
scans and ultrasound show no
abnormality

People afflicted with it
complain of widespread body
pain. They hurt all over, es-
pecially muscles, bones and
joints. Exercise aggravates
the pain. Joints are stiff early
in the morning. Fibromyalgia
patients are tired all the time.
They never get a decent night's
sleep, and that adds to their fa-
tigue.

During an examination,
doctors can detect tender poi nts ,
specific body sites where pres-
sure of the examining finger
elicits pain out of proportion
to the pressure . There are 1 8 of
these sites, nine on each side of
the body.

More than 70 medicines
have been used in treating fi-
bromyalgia. Tylenol and anti-
inflammatory medicines such
as Aleve, Advil and Motrin are

up exam.

*♦♦

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
We were told to drink six to
eight glasses of water a day.
A doctor on television said to
drink water only when you
are thirsty. Which is the right
advice? - /?X.

ANSWER: It's not neces-
sary to drink six to eight glass-
es of water a day. Most people
can let thirst be their guide. In
very hot weather, a couple of
extra glasses of water keep a

person hydrated.

4 Thought
For Th£ ^eetc

JSK0^~ M^^ Thinking and thanking are two words
^^tffj^';^^^^^ that belong together. . . Think about this!
^^^^^^J^^^^H If you think enough about what you have,
^^^HV^^^^^H instead of complaining about what

don't have; if you think enough about the
SCOTT DEWARE good that has happened to you, instead of
feeling sorry for yourself about all the 'bad luck' you have had,
you will thank God for His goodness and mercy.

Couldn't it be said that it's not so much what happens to us,
but how we react and respond? The trouble is that most of us don't
do enough positive thinking ... We moan and grown about the
bad things, and take the good things for granted. . . We complain
that the cup is half empty, instead of thanking God that it is half

Years ago there was a popular ballad entitled : "Aren't You Glad
Yra're You?" It went something like this: "Every time you're near
a rose, aren't you glad you've got a nose. . . When the meadow
lark appears, aren't you glad you've got two years. . . And when
the dawn is fresh with dew, aren't you glad you're you?"

We think this is a pretty good philosophy . . . What do you
think?

Slars

ARIES (March 21 to April

19) Don't be .surprised if, in
spite of your well-made plans,
something goes awry. But don't
worry. Your knowledge of the
facts plus your Arian charm will
help you work it out.

TAURUS (April 20 to May

20) A personal relationship
seems to be demanding more
than you feel you're able to give.
Best advice: Confront the issue.
You could find the situation sur-
prisingly easy to work through.

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Resist being pressured into
meeting your self-imposed dead-
line. This is important if you re-
ally feel that taking more time to
finish a project could save time
in the long run.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) A vacation choice seems
less interesting than when you
first made it. Could it be a matter
of the place or the people going
with you? Find out before you
consider a change of plans.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Someone might be overriding
your Leonine logic to get you
to agree to "favors" you would
normally avoid. Take a new look
at what you've been asked to do
and see if you've been misled.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) Try to keep that
emerging "judgmental" aspect in
check this week. Too many cri-
tiques on relatively unimpt)rtant
issues could create a lot of nega-
tive bounce-back reactions.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Facing unpleasant facts
about an associate isn't easy. But
ignoring them isn't wise. Ask a

trusted (and neutral) friend to
help guide you on what to do and
how you might doit.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21 ) A shift in opinion
regarding a wcirkplace situation
could go a long way in vindicat-
ing the stand you've taken. But
be awiire that a satisfactory reso-
lution could still be a long way
off.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) It's not like
you to chtxise the easy way rath-
er than the right way to do things.
So, follow your instincts and feel
asstired they will lead you to the
right decision. Good luck.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Hold off on mak-
ing a personal commitment until
you find out what it really entails
and whose interests are actually
involved. There could be hidden
facts you need to know.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February i 8) A new friend offers
an unexpected (opportunity that
could lead to a career change.
Check it out carefully and con-
sider getting an assessment from
someone familiar with this field.

PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) A surprising discov-
ery leads tp mixed reactions
from those involved in the "rev-
elation." But as you com.e to ap-
preciate the truth, you'll be able
to also come to terms with your
feelings.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
love of travel helps you appreci-
ate the wonders of the world. You
would find a satisfying career in
any travel-related industry.

Phelan Campaign
Announces Campaign Manager

Koch To Open Re-Election Headquarters

The Bill Phelan cam-
paign announces it has hired
Michael Ward as campaign
manager. Ward began work-
ing on July I and will run
day-to-day campaign opera-
tions.

"It's an enormous plus to
have a professional with the
extensive campaign back-
ground and experience that
Mike brings to our team,"
Phelan said.

"We are fortunate to have
so many hundreds of talent-
ed and hard-working people
involved as volunteers, with
new jjeople joining us every
day," Phelan. "As our team
grows, Mike will put his or-
ganizational skills to work
ensuring that our campaign
is effective, efficient and

victorious in November."

"I am excited to be
board," Ward said. "The
Phelan Campaign has an in-
credible sense of energy and
enthusiasm and commit-
ment among all the volun-
teers and supporters whom
I've been meeting. We're
going to take that energy,
and we're going to channel

it into a campaign that is
organized and disciplined,
a principled campaign that
focuses on the issues, and a
campaign that's fun and ex-
citing."

According to the state-
ment. Ward has worked on
many campaigns in Massa-
chusetts, Pennsylvania and
New Mexico. Most recently,
he managed a congressio-
nal campaign in New Mex-
ico. He also has experience
working in municipal gov-
ernment in Massachusetts.

Bom in raised in Way-
land, Ward has a B.A. from
Amherst College and a mas-
ters in public policy from
the Kennedy School of Gov-
ernment.

Mayor Tom Koch will
open his re-election head-
quarters at 70 Billings Rd.
in North Quincy with an
open house at 6 p.m. next
Tuesday, his campaign has
announced.

The ItKation, the former
Accent Upholstery shop on
Billings Road, will be the
hub of Mayor Koch's cam-
paign until Election Day,

and he invited any resident
to drop by for information,
ask questions or to volunteer
for the campaign

"We are running the
same kind of honest, grass-
roots campaign we ran two
years ago. and a big part of
that IS getting everybody
involved as much as pt)s-
sible. Opening a headquar
ters is a big piece of that."

Koch said "I could not hap-
pier that we found a space in
Norfolk Downs, close to so
many great businesses and
so many thriving neighbor-
hoixls, including my own '"

Laforest Graduates White House Project,
Establishes Mass. Leadership Circle

Ward One City Council
Candidate Margaret Lafor-
est recently graduated from
The White House Project's
Go Run leadership training
program, which has trained
over 6,000 women to lead
a political life across the
country.

"1 am so grateful to re-
ceive a scholarship to attend
TWHP's training, that I've
committed to founding the
"Leadership Circle" in MA
for 2010," Laforest said in a
statement.

The Leadership Circle is
the donor program working
to raise money on behalf of
TWHP

"While the campaign
is keeping me very busy
in 2009, I'm so proud to
announce that The White
House Project is planning a
training session in MA for
March of 2010 and I hope
to recruit some women to
attend and raise money to
support their training," La-
forest said, adding she has
requested the WHP consider
Quincy as a location for a
fiiture training session.

The White House Proj-

ect, founded by Take our
Daughters to Work Day
co-founder and renowned
women's advocate Marie C.
Wilson, is a national non-
partisan non-profit organiza-
tion that works to advance a
richly diverse, critical mass
of women into all leadership
sectors, up to and including
the United States Presiden-
cy.

A common theme men-
tioned at The White House
Project is that often women
don't consider living a polit-
ical life until asked. Part of
the homework to prepare for
the training program, was to
write about events and expe-
riences that have influenced
community involvement and
political pursuit and what
you've done as a result.

"For one of mine," La-
forest said, "I noted that my
mother had served on the
Houghs Neck Community
Council and as a child I vol-
unteered at many events and
helped collate "The Bulle-
tin."

Laforest also said she
actively volunteered as an
adult at the HNCC.

"Since then, 1 have served
as corresponding secretary,
vice president and president
of the HNCC. I have chaired
various events, including the
popular Chowdafest, Mayor
of Houghs Neck Contest,
collate The Bulletin and of
course brought my children
with me to help.

Deval Patrick in next year's
gubernatonal campaign.
Changing from Demwrat to
unenrolled would mean Ca-
hill would avoid a primary
election and be on the ballot
for the final election in No-
vember.

In Quincy, the number of
voters registered as Demo-
crats has been decreasing
with the number of unen-
rolled voters increasing.
Last year, there were about
210 more Democrats regis-

But the latest figures
show the margin is half
that.

presently 55324 registered

MORE REASON FOR UNINSURED MOTORIST COVERAGE

Insurance experts have long
recommended the inclusion of
"uninsured motorist coverage"
in auto policies as a means of
protecting oneself from drivers
without insurance. According
to recent statistics, having this
coverage is more important than
drivers might expect. It seems that
the current economic downturn has
led increasing numbers of motorists
to drop their auto policies. In fact,
the Insurance Research Council
expects that, by next year, one
of every six drivers on U.S.
roadways is likely to be uninsured.
The council's report goes on to
point out that an increase in the
unemployment rate of 1 percentage
point was directly associated
with an increase in the uninsured
motorist rate of more than three-
quarters of a percentage point.

The recession has led many
people to cut back spending in
various areas. Unfortunately, one
area is on auto insurance. This
increases your chances of being in
an accident with an uninsured driver.
Please call JAMES J. SULLIVAN
INSURANCE AGENCY at 617-
328-8600 to learn about our auto
policies. We can evaluate your
current policy or prepare a new
policy. We offer free quotes by
phone, transfer discounts, and
installment payments. As an
independent insurance agency, we
offer competitive rates and prompt
settlements of claims. We are located
at 151 Hancock Street.

Note: According to statistics
compiled by the Federal Highway
Administration, 33 million drivers
across the United States will be
driving without coverage by the end
of this year.

City residents increased
household ret> cling by 700
tons and reduced garbage by
more than 2,000 tons in the
first year of a new regional
trash collection contract.
Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Tuesday.

Officials said the re-
cycling number maybe
a record, producing total
savings of S3 10,(KX) tor tax-
payers. That number is over
and above cost reductions
to date from the new trash
contract that combined the
buying power of Quincy,

Braintree and Wev mouth.

"These are great num-
bers, for both our environ-
ment and our pocketbcK)k.
It shows clearly what com-
ing together and working in
the best interest of the city
can do," Koch said. "This is
only the beginning, though.
We expect to continue to in-
crease recycling, and reduce
trash, in the \ears ahead ""

John Q. Adams' Service To City, Nation Remembered

By LAURA GRIFFIN

President John Quincy
Adams, the sixth president
of the United States, got due
honor this year, not only in
his hometown but across the
world as people celebrated
his contributions to this
country, to justice, and to in-

ternational relations.

In Quincy this weekend,
there was a triple-header for
Adams' admirers who pon-
dered his boyhood at the
dedication of the Abigail Ad-
ams Cairn, saluted his skill
in international relations at
Adams National Historical

Park, and observed the anni-
versary of his birth at Presi-
dents' Church, Quincy.

"It's unfortunate that
many people regard John
Quincy as merely the son of
the President John Adams,"
said Arthur Ducharme, Di-
rector of the Historic Inter-

pretive Program at L'nited
First Parish Church, Presi-
dents' Church.

Ducharme called John
Quincy Adams "one of
America's greatest leaders.
No one was ever so well
qualified to be president."

Fears that President John

Quincy Adams' legacy is
overshadowed by his fa-
ther's deeds should fade
away this year as tributes to
JQA as he's called stretched
from Quincy and New
Hampshire across oceans to
Russia.

Ducharme organized the

first Adams' tribute of the
weekend on Frida\, the e\e
of the 242"'' anniversar\ of
Adams" birthda\ with the
annual laying of the presi-
dential wreath at his crypt in
Presidents" Church, Quincy
Center.

$848^74 For Homeless Prevention To Meet Health Needs of Communities Served;

Will Not Combine Boards, Finances Or Assets

QMC,S 5. Hospital
In Clinical Collaboration

The city will receive
$848,274 under the Ameri-
can Recovery and Reinvest-
ntient Act ("Stimulus Bill")
for the implementation of
the Homeless Prevention
and Rapid Re-housing pro-
gram under the U S . Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban
Development.

The announcement was
made Tuesday by Mayor
Thomas Koch and Planning
Director Dennis E. Har-

rington.

The funding will be al-
located to Father Bill's and
MainSpring (FBM) and
Quincy Community Action
Programs (QCAP) as sub-
grantees under the program.

FBM proposes to provide
flexible funding for rent and
housing related services for
homeless individuals who
are utilizing shelter services.
Funding will also be used to

prevent "at risk" individuals
from becoming homeless.

FBM proposes to assist
an estimated 90 individuals
under the program.

QCAP's utilization of
these funds will focus on
providing comprehensive
homeless prevention and
rapid re-housing services to
an estimated 1 10 families.

The city anticipates the
program will begin Oct. 1 .

Audit To Be Available On Internet

For the first time, the
city's independent audit will
be made readily available to
the public on the Internet via
the new www.QuincyMA.
gov site, Mayor Thomas
Koch announced Tuesday.

The fiscal year 2008 Au-
dit Management Letter writ-
ten by the Wakefield- based
firm of Powers and Sullivan
is the last audit available,
covering the budget that
took effect July 1 , 2007.

"We continue to open our
books, and making this au-
dit readily available to the
public is part of that pro-

cess," Koch said. "This is
an important document that
identified a series of prob-
lems that we confronted
upon taking office, gave us
a road map to solve them,
and continues to be the basis
for ongoing and necessary
reforms"

The audit outlined a se-
ries of financial shortfalls
within the city, including
millions of dollars in Water
and Sewer fees being used
to pay the Police and Fire
Department's budgets and
unbudgeted payments for
the 2007 Honeywell man-
agement plan.

Koch said the adminis-
tration has focused intently
on solving those problems
in its first two years, adding
that concrete progress has
been made and backed up
by positive credit ratings.

The letter will be avail-
able in the Mayor's Office
section of the Quincy MA.
gov homepage, just below a
link for the fiscal year 2010
budget, Koch said.

Adding important docu-
ments is a key feature of
the new site, which was
launched officially last
week, Koch added.

The new site, designed by
Cyclone Design of Quincy,
boasts a series of new fea-
tures previously unavailable
to city residents, including
online transactions, and up-
dated calendar of commu-
nity events and government
meetings, an e-mail and
text-messaging alert system
and a new streamlined on-
line platform for requesting
city services.

Quincy Medical Center
and South Shore Hospital
in South Weymouth have
announced that they will en-
ter into a clinical affiliation
to improve local access to
quality-focused, cost-effec-
tive health care services.

As part of this process,
both the Quincy Medical
Center and South Shore
Hospital governing boards
recently authorized their
institutions' move forward
to finalize this affiliation
agreement.

The two hospitals are
currently reviewing commu-
nity needs and areas where a
combined effort could more
effectively meet the health
needs of the communities
they both serve. The clini-
cal affiliation will not in-
volve combining the boards,
finances or assets of the two
hospitals.

Gary Gibbons, MD,
FACS, Quincy Medical
Center president and chief
executive officer, said, "This
is an historic time for Quin-
cy Medical Center. We have
an unprecedented opportu-
nity to develop an affiliation
to continue to provide com-
prehensive, high-quality
health care services. This
is one more step in fulfill-

UP TO YOUR NECK IN JEWELS

Current fashion calls for wear- loom pieces that can be updated

ing outsized necklaces with large
beads, big pendants, and layered
metallic motifs that swarm high
about the neck, looking much
like a jeweled scarf. Taking in-
spiration from pieces worn by
English royalty and nobility, the
idea is to wear anything that re-
flects your personal style and
taste, as long as it is big. With
this in mind, we are seeing ev-
erything from heavy crucifixes
and layers of Victorian jet pieces,
to gold tribal icons and colorful
African beads, to large enameled
flowers and slices of polished ag-
ate being wora by fashion-mind-
ed women. This is a trend that
lends itself perfectly to searching
through jewelry boxes for heir-

m new settmgs.

Our customers choose necklac-
es and other fine jewelry because
our pieces make a personal state-
ment about them. The fashion-
conscious people who come to
us do so because they don't want
to look just like their friends-
they want to express their own
unique, individual style. You
aren't just another shopper when
you visit us; you're as special as
the designs we create. We hope
to see you soon at 1402 Hancock
Street, Quincy Center., for fine
jewelry sure to suit all tastes and
all budgets. We also offer expert

City Officials, Business Owners
Welcome Preliminary Renewal Plan

Young Planners Offer

New Vision For

Wollaston Center

By LAURA GRIFFIN

City officials and busi-
ness owners believe it's time
to 'kick-start' a renewal of
Wollaston Center and, last
week welcomed prelimi-
nary concepts developed by
eight young urban planners
interning at Sasaki Associ-
ates of Watertown.

The eight interns. Team
Wollaston, envision a re-
charged and vigorous Wol-
laston Center with thriving
retailers, business offices
and townhouses accessible
by wide green and brick
paths lined with trees, per-
haps a fountain and artwork
inviting visitors and con-
sumers and, even more im-
portantly, repeat visitors and
patrons.

"If you can't make them
come back, it's no good,"
Planning Director Dennis
Harrington said prior to the
presentation. "You have to

have repeat business."

Sasaki partner Jason Hel-
lendrung,ASLA, supervised
the team who worked pro-
bono with the Planning De-
partment in mid-June to de-
velop the preliminary master
plan presented last week at
Wollaston Branch Library.
The redevelopment plan in-
volves no land-taking.

"This is just a first step,
some of the things that could
happen" Kristina Johnson
of the Planning Department
said as she introduced the
interns whose credentials
include urban studies, plan-
ning, architectural, and en-
gineering degrees at MIT,
Harvard, Penn, Merrimack,
Roger Williams, and the
University of Virginia.

Johnson called the con-
cept, "almost a village type"
plan.

kling of business owners
and residents, welcomed the
plans as a starting point for
discussion and a makeover
for the area, the second larg-
est retail district in the city.

The plans contained "a
lot of good ideas," and could
"kick-start development
for Wollaston," said Dean
Rizzo, executive director,
Quincy 2000 Collaborative.

Team Wollaston focused,
first, on the four to five acre
parking lot at Wollaston T
Station where they rendered
Beale Street Park, recom-
mended a 765-spot parking
garage, as well as 300,000
sq. ft. of new housing, re-
tail and office development
with ample clusters of green
space on 1 .2 acres and wide
walkways.

In addition, Beale Street
would offer the only En-
trance to the T station which
should draw more commut-
ers into the area's business
district.

Under their plan, Beale
Street remains the magnet
and the main street corridor
with enhanced retail activity

Patrons Understand Library's
Budget Cuts, Weekend Closings

Library trustees and ad-
ministrators had to make
hard choices to survive re-
cent budget cuts and that
included closing the library
weekends in July and Au-
gust but patrons have been
understanding, according to
Director Ann McLaughlin.

"People were disap-
pointed we were closed,"
McLaughlin said but added
that people understood the
library directors had hard
choices: branch closings or

weekend closings.

"Branch hours were not
cut." McLaughlin said, cit-
ing the Trustees' decision
to protect the city's branch
libraries.

To date, the library's
20 10 budget sustained a
10% or $281,000 cut, ac-
cording to McLaughlin who
said administrators had to
consider the overtime costs
for Sundays and a differen-
tial for Saturdays for a sav-
ings of over $30,000 which

represents one salary

Weekend hours weren't
the only cut, according to
McLaughlin who said the
library had to reduce it bo<ik
budget by $100,000. but did
try to avoid staff layoffs.

"We had to be creative."
said McLaughlin who
steered Comcast funding to
the department's technology
access needs.

Unless there are further
budget cuts. McLaughlin

• On July 15, 1888,

the Bandai volcano erupts
on the Japanese island of
Honshu, killing hundreds
and burying many nearby
villages in ash. The explo-
sive eruptions sent debris
thousands of feet into the
air and left an 8,000-foot-
wide crater in the earth. The
resulting cloud of ash and
steam was estimated at 4
miles wide.

State Treasurer Tim Cahill's not even officially a can-
didate for governor next ycai and already some so-
called experts are discounting his chances because he'd
run as an independent.

Counting Cahill out - if he's in - is
a big mistake.

Sure, leaving the Democratic Party
and registering as an unenrolled/inde-
pendent voter is a political gamble. Ca-
hill switched affiliations last Wednes-
day after deciding "the Democratic
Party leadership no longer reflects my
fiscal values or those of the working
families in the Commonwealth."

But his decision could pay off if the Quincy resident
and former city councillor campaigns for governor next
year. Cahill has said he will make a final decision about
joining the gubernatorial sweepstakes in September.

"It's a gamble but the party label means less and less
and Tim has a record of going against the flow and being
successful," is how one longtime political observer puts
it.

Cahill honed his maverick style while serving as a
Quincy councillor at-large. He took what some perceived
as politically unpopular positions at times, but always
spoke his mind in a very candid and honest way.

And that style certainly has resonated with city, coun-
ty and state-wide voters. He was first elected a councillor
in 1987 and was re-elected seven times. He also topped
the ballot a number of times. For years he was rumored to
have his eyes on the mayor's office but the timing never
quite seemed right.

In 1996, Cahill seized an opportunity to run for Nor-
folk County treasurer and won a six-year term. While in
that post, he sharpened his reputation as a fiscal conser-
vative.

You might say his first big political gamble came in
2002 when he opted against running for re-election as
county treasurer and instead made his first bid for state-
wide office by seeking the state treasurer's post.

It was an impressive debut. Cahill defeated three chal-
lengers in the Democratic primary that year and topped
Republican challenger Daniel Grabauskas in the final
election to win the state treasurer's race. In his first state-
wide run, Cahill polled over a million votes. He defeated
Grabauskas by 191377 votes (1,040,281 to 848,904).

So, rolling dice with his political future is nothing new
for Cahill.

But his decision to leave the Democratic Party and
run as an independent for govemor will be debated and
discussed well into the campaign if Cahill decides to run
for the comer office on Beacon Hill. The race is already
getting crowded: besides Gov. Deval Patrick, two Re-
publicans have announced their candidacies, too: Christy
Mihos and Charlie Baker.

By leaving the Democratic Party, Cahill avoids a big
obstacle, one that some believe he would have been hard-
pressed to overcome: securing 15 percent of the Demo-
cratic delegates at next year's State Convention which is
required to qualify for the primary ballot. That's because
Democratic Party leaders would have supported Gov.
Patrick in his re-election bid.

'The govemor controls the convention," one observer
said. "And I think it would have been difficult for Tim to
get the required 15 percent of the delegates at the conven-
tion."

So, running as an independent means Cahill would as-
sure himself a spot on the general election ballot next
November provided he does one thing: collect 10,000
signatures from Massachusetts voters. And that's any
voter registered from any party - including Democratic
and Republican.

(Candidates affiliated with a party, by the way, can
collect signatures for state-wide office from voters within
their own party and from the unenrolled - but not from
other parties.)

Cahill collected more than 5,000 signatures to qualify
as a candidate for state treasurer. He would have approxi-
mately six months to collect the 10,000 signatures he'd

need for the govemor 's ballot. Those papers would be
available Feb. 9, 2010 and be due Aug. 3 of next year.

So the big political question is this: what kind of sup-
port can Cahill, if he mns for govemor, gamer as a third
party candidate?

Obviously his defection from the Democratic party
doesn't endear him to "traditional Democrats," one ob-
server said.

"Traditional Democrats don't like candidates who
don't stay within the party. They tend to vote the straight
party line."

But the number of Democrats appears to be waning. In
fact, there are more unenrolled registered voters in Mas-
sachusetts than Democrats and Republicans - combined.

The latest breakdown as of Oct. 15, 2008 shows there
are 2,141,878 unenrolled voters in Massachusetts; that's
about half of all registered voters. Registered Democrats
are next with 1,559,464 (36.95 percent) followed by Re-
publicans 490,259 (1 1 .62 percent).

So, perhaps Cahill's potential candidacy would give
new meaning to the political adage: vote the "man," not
the "party."

Money-wise, Cahill had $2,847,872 in his campaign
account as of Dec. 31 last year, according to the most
recent report filed Jan. 22.

If you're a betting man, and know Tim Cahill, you'd
have to think he's going to run for govemor next year.
And go for broke.

G

TWO MORE POTENTL\L city council candidates
have emerged.

Jimmy Liang of 78 French Ave., a local restaurant
owner, has pulled papers for city councillor at-large, ac-
cording to the city's Election Department. Liang would
be making his third bid for councillor at-large. He also
ran in 2001 and 2003.

Liang was also a candidate for Ward 6 councillor in
2007, bowing to incumbent Brian McNamee.

The three incumbent councillors at-large are seeking
re-election: Joseph Finn, 15 Williams St., Michael Mc-
Farland, 140 Sunmiit Ave. and John Keenan, 37 Hobo-
mack Rd.

□

IN WARD 6, Maureen Cunningham Glynn, a local
Realtor, has taken out papers as a potential city council
candidate. She would be challenging incumbent Ward
6 Councillor Brian McNamee, 133 Commander Shea
Blvd., who is seeking a third two-year term.

Glynn, age 62, of 1001 Marina Dr., Squantum, would
be making her first bid for elected office in Quincy. She is
a member of the Quincy Conservation Commission.

G

AND TWO MORE potential School Committee can-
didates have taken out nomination papers.

They are: Steve Striffler,age 44, of 63 Huckins Ave.,
Squantum; and Emily Lebo, age 58, of 354 Highland
Ave., Wollaston.

Striffler is a civil engineer while Lebo is director of
Career and Vocational Technical Education for the Bos-
ton Public Schools. That brings the potential field for
school committee up to 10 which means a preliminary
election is likely on Sept. 22. The preliminary would pare

Scenes From Yesterday

uarttes

THIS IS A 1908 postcard view of the Granite Railway
Quarry in West Quincy. First known as Pine Hill Ledge,
this quarry was opened about 1830 as the second source
of granite for the Bunker Hill monument. By the time
it closed in the 1940's, it had gained wide recognition
for its fine grade of dark Quincy granite. Some historic
landmarks made from its granite include: Minot Ledge
Lighthouse off the Cohasset coast; the base building of

Boston's Custom House with its 28 fluted columns; and
the facade of the Omni Parker House Hotel in Boston.
After it closed it became a favorite, albeit dangerous,
swimming hole for youngsters from near and far until
it was filled with Big Dig dirt in 2001. Today, its still
protruding granite ledges attract large numbers of rock
climbing enthusiasts. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail

Tips From The Mayor's Drug Task Force Program

By BRIAN BUCKLEY

Chairman,
Mayor 's Drug Task Force

Over the past year and
half, the Mayor's Drug
Task Force has worked to
increase awareness of sub-
stance abuse in the commu-
nity.

Over the next few months ,
you will see a 'Tips from the
Task Force" column twice a
month in this space. Advice
for parents, information on
the social liability law, drug
facts, the role of the Court
System in combating sub-
stance abuse and many oth-
er topics will be discussed.
The Drug Task Force is here
to help you.

Through collaboration
with the Quincy Police De-

partment, local health orga-
nizations, the Quincy Pub-
lic Schools, social service
agencies and private citi-
zens, several new initiatives
began to bring important in-
formation to the community
on the dangers of addiction.

Mayor Koch and Police
Chief Keenan were instru-
mental in obtaining three
drug dogs for the city, a new
Drug Task Force website
was launched, two sympo-
siums were held, planning
for increased education in
the schools began and the
groundwork was laid for ex-
panding the Drug Unit.

We will point you toward
new programs taking place
in the city and provide in-

formation on where to go
to seek more help in the
event that a family member
or friend has begun abusing
drugs.

Keep posted as this sec-
tion is only a small piece in
the Mayor's efforts to de-
crease substance abuse in
the City.

Wollaston Garden Club Members Enjoy Annual Garden Tour

The Wollaston Garden
Club, member of the Na-
tional Garden Club, Inc.,
and Garden Club Federation
of Massachusetts founded in
1927, recently had their 5th
annual Members Garden
Tour & Progressive Dinner
- and a fun fest it was.

With the rain now be-
coming commonplace, one
began wondering if there
was ever such a thing as
sunshine or would the Club
be able to carry on with
their plans. But - 'that lucky

old sun' came shining on
through and gave folks a
spectacular day for the tour.
The food was nothing
less than superb; and each
setting for the tour had its
beautifully unique and very
different garden. A debt
of gratitude was extended
to Claire Currier, Mamie
Dunn, Rebecca Dinsmore
and Kathleen Frost for offer-
ing up their gardens. It takes
a lot of planning and a lot
of difficult work to prepare
for such an event in order to

pull it off successfully.

Susan Lynch, Joan Don-
ovan, Kathy Meade, Marcia
Smith and Nancy Nelson
were the event's hostesses,
and each person on their
committee placed a sub-
stantial amount of time and
thought into providing a
cornucopia of eye-appealing
and delicious food for each
of the courses.

The tour began by en-
joying tasty hors'duerves,
while the members took
pleasure from the serenity of

Germantown Community Summer Kick Off

The Germantown Neigh-
borhood Center's Armual
Community Appreciation
Day will have a cookout for
its Summer Kick Off today
(Thursday) from noon to 3
p.m.

The event, which will
be held at the center at 366
Palmer St. will feature raf-
fles, hamburgers, face paint-
ing, hot dogs, drinks, music
and dancing.

In addition to the Ger-
mantown Center, the event
is sponsored by the Quincy

Public Schools Summer
Food Program, Community
Development Block Grant,
South Shore YMCA, Dis-
trict Attorney William Keat-
ing's Office, Quincy Com-

munity Police, Snug Harbor
School, Ward 1 Councillor
Leo Kelly, Quincy Citizen's
Police Academy, Quincy
Housing Authority, and the
Quincy Parks Department.

Lauren DiBona Receives Award

Lauren DiBona of Quin-
cy, a student at Archbishop
Williams High School, was
named the 2009 recipient of
the Saint Michael's College
Scholarship and Service
Book Award.

The award recognizes

students who demonstrate
a commitment to volunteer-
ism and leadership trough
community service.

Lauren is the daughter of
Peter and Kim DiBona of
Quincy.

Claire Currier's garden and
set around the patio. Across
from the garden you find a
row of manicured hedge that
separates the patio garden
from an impressive field of
blackberries that would in
fact earn add-on status at the
Quincy Farmers' Market.

Later, the tour moved on
to Mamie Dunn's for the
salad. The members had a
wide selection of salads to
choose from, each one on
its own was five star. Atop
the wooden archway you
find deep purple clematis as
you enter the garden. Rock
gardens are located around
the area; flowers are flanked
along the driveway, and a
neat vegetable garden is set
next to the house. Every-
thing in the garden was neat
and so pleasing to the eye.

The main course was
had at the Dorothy Quincy
House. A variety of mouth

watering food was served.
Rebecca Dinsmore volun-
teers much of her time to
landscaping for the Dorothy
Quincy House, and does a
great job. The flowenng
shrubs and trees are set
throughout the sprawling
lawn, while a select area in
the garden is positioned with
flowers that are encircled in
a nng of boxwood and are
again repeated within dif-
ferent ring designs of box-
wood. It is in fact a stnkmg

piece of garden art.

The tour ends with de-
licious desserts served at
Kathleen Frost's garden.
The garden was filled with
hydrangeas, white flowers,
and a soothing use of green
textured grasses and shrubs.
Her waterfront home of-
fered a stnking view of the
Boston skyline. It made the
whole scene exceptionally
picture perfect. Summing it
up - a good time was had by
all.

land Aquarium, noting the
Fore River location offers
access to salt water.

Commissioners must ap-
prove two permits: the first
would allow the aquarium
to pump salt water from the
harbor into the proposed
tanks which have capacities
of 30,000 gallons and, the

second permit would allow
a trench pipe along the pier
line for the watp'' transfer.

"It would give us greater
capacity," said Tony LaC-
asse, spokesman for the
aquarium who described the
need for an offsite holding
facility for fish and aquatic
animals before and after
exhibits and an area for the
marine animal rescue team.

LaCasse said the aquar-
ium offers its 1.3 million
annual visitors access to
750 different aquatic spe-
cies. The aquarium often,
acquires new fish and ani-
mals which "must be held in
quarantine for 30 days."

The tanks would be built
of new concrete with fiber-
glass shields.

While the public is of-
ten aware that aquarium
staff rescue harbor porp>oise
and seals, they also work to
protect other animals which
must be protected until they

are released.

LaCasse said that, each
year, the aquarium rescues
between 25 to 150 stranded
Kemp's ridley sea turtles
left behind during the Fall
migration south and, to date,
have rescued over 500 of the
endangered species.

The young turtles, rang-
ing from three to four
months old to five years of
age, are often suffering from
pneumonia or hypothermia
and are treated by aquarium
staff and then shipped south
for release.

LaCasse expects the local
and federal review of plans
to take several months. The
facility will not be open to
the public.

While the 40-year-old
New England Aquarium is a
non-profit organization, the
facility would be subject to
real estate taxes as a leased
structure.

The View Restaurant And Tavern
Celebrates Grand Opening

Owner Chris Carr re-
cently celebrated the grand
opening of his restaurant,
The View Restaurant and
Tavern, located at Presi-
dents Golf Course, 357 West
Squantum St., Quincy.

On hand to celebrate were
Mayor Thomas P. Koch,
Quincy 2000 Collaborative
Chairman Ed Keohane of
Keohane Funeral Homes,
Quincy 2000 Collaborative
Executive Director Dean
Rizzo, Discover Quincy Ex-
ecutive Mark Carey, Quincy
Business Association Ex-
ecutive Director Maralin
Manning, fellow business
owners, family and friends.

Carr's extensive back-
ground in the restaurant

and event plaiming busi-
ness began after he gradu-
ated from the Culinary Insti-
tute of America (C.I.A.) in
Hyde Park, New York. He
founded the event planning
business Boston Butler Inc.
in 1992 and this entrepre-
neurial spirit led him to take
on the role of renovating the
restaurant that had previ-
ously existed at President's
Golf Course.

"My sons and I play golf
here quite often and have
always been amazed by the
view and the atmosphere
here. 1 quickly realized that
there was a huge potential to
bring fresh quality food at a
reasonable price to not only
the golfers but also to the

general public," said Carr.

"Many people have the
misperception that only
golfers can enjoy the ameni-
ties here. Everyone is wel-
come to come and experi-
ence the indoor and outdoor
dining and admire the beau-
tiful grounds surrounding
the restaurant."

Carr said he is apprecia-
tive of the support that he's
received from the Norfolk
County Commissioners
(Presidents Golf Course is
owned and operated by the
County of Norfolk), as well
as the City of Quincy and
the town of Milton.

The View currently has
29 employees, both full and
part-time. "It feels great to
be hiring in this economy,"
said Carr.

The View Restaurant
and Tavern is open daily
starting at 6:30 a.m. serving
breakfast, lunch, and din-
ner, along with a full liquor
complement.

The View is also avail-
able for functions.

Free parking available.

Swim Buoys For Quincy 's Beaches

our bodies consist of about
60% water, buoyancy makes
you feel perfectly balanced.

Total Body Condition-
ing: Swimming tones your
upper and lower body and
uses all the major muscle
groups.

Low Risk of Injury:
There is a low risk for swim-
ming injuries because no
stress is placed on bones,
joints or connective tissue.

Low Impact Exercise:
Swimming is an effective,
life long, physical activity.
Dunng pregnancy, as an
elder or a person with dis-
abilities, swimming can be
safe.

Improve Blood Pres-
sure: Studies have shown
a workout routine that in-
cludes swimming can help
reduce and possibly prevent
high blood pressure lower-
ing the risk for heart disease
and stroke.

It's FREE: Going to the
neighborhood beach is free.
There are many additional
benefits to being m tune
with the tides and being in
salt water.

Harbor Master Pat Mor-
rissey and Quincy Beaches
and Coastal Commission
member Laura Innis recent-
ly installed Quincy 's first
swim area markers at Back
Beach in Adams Shore.

Funding was provided
through the Blue Hills Com-
munity Health Alliance,
CHNA 20. Funds are made
available to help support ef-
forts to create Healthy Com-
munities.

With the clean-up of
Boston Harbor and the ban
on dumping put in place last
year, Quincy 's 13 neighbor-
hood beaches are clean and
swimmable. Most of the
neighborhood beaches pass
the Health Department's
clean water test 100% of the
time.

Innis said she wants
Quincy residents to know
the water is clean.

"We are so fortunate
to have 27 miles of clean
coastline and an opportunity
to get free physical activity
without sitting in traffic,"
she said.

A marker was also placed
near Edgewater Beach to

remind boaters and jet ski
enthusiasts that there are
people swimming.

Innis said she will contin-
ue to write grants and try to
secure funding to purchase
markers for Quincy's other
beaches.

'This initiative will help
make our residents healthier
and sustain the economic
base of the city. Our people
and our beaches are a great
resource and swimming of-
fers many great health ben-
efits," she added.

HEALTH BENEHTS
OF SWIMMING

The Perfect Exercise:
Swimming is the perfect
workout for your whole
body, improving cardio-
vascular health, muscle
strength , endurance , posture ,
and flexibility. Your car-
diovascular system benefits
because swimming dis-
tributes oxygen from head
to toe without overworking
the heart.

Stress Reduction: Water
is soothing. The moment
you jump in you start to re-
lax. Swimming forces you
to breathe properly. Since

Recycling Up 700
Saves City $310

Tons,
,000

Cont 'd From Page I
regional contract with Capi-
tol Waste Services. Inc. last
year. With three cities to-
gether at the bargaining ta-
ble, officials secured a very
favorable contract despite
the economic climate and
industry-wide cost increas-
es, Koch said.

The contract also includ-
ed a provision that actually
pays back the city for every
ton that it recycles at a time

when most communities are
actually paying an average
of $60 per ton to dispose
of recyclable material, said
John Sullivan, program
manager for the Department
of Public Works.

The reduction in gar-
bage produced by residents
amounted to $206,000 in
savings on trash collection,
and the increase in recy-
cling produced $104,000 in
revenue, combining for the

$3 10.000 in total savings.

The new recycling
program, called "single-
stream." allows residents to
place all recyclable material
in a single container without
sorting. Officials encourage
residents to use one of their
existing trash barrels for re-
cyclables and affix a sticker
distnbuted by the DPW on
it to identify it as a recycling
container.

I'm noticing a resurgence
of grills, both charcoal and
propane on balconies. In the
recent past, we expended a
great deal of time and ener-
gy on getting them removed.
Their numbers dwindled
while 1 suspect the resur-
gence is due to new tenants
and new condo owners.

Meanwhile a fire in a
propane cylinder can have
disastrous effects at grade
level, but the potential for
damage to life and prop-
erty increases substantially
with the inaccessibility of
a building balcony. Danger
to occupants and firefight-
ers alike increases consid-
erably when fire infringes
upon a propane cylinder
above grade level where
extinguishment efforts are
hampered by access limita-
tions and height. If you cur-
rently have a propane grill
on a balcony, please help us
in our continued effort to re-
move them.

Should a grill catch fire
on a balcony, it can be fed
by the natural availability
of air surrounding it and the
vertical access to the outside
of a building where heat and
flames will naturally extend.

The largest fire loss within
the City these past 5 years
occurred just this same way.
Although a grill was not the
initial cause, the results were
the same. The fire extended
vertically upward along the
combustible exterior of the
building entering the build-
ing at a higher elevation
causing considerable dam-
age throughout.

The loss was well over
a million dollars while the
building was then posted
uninhabitable, leaving ten-
ants seeking alternate living
arrangements for well over a
year. Is the convenience of a
grill on a balcony worth that
price? Property loss, pos-
sessions lost, a building left
uninhabitable and risk to oc-
cupants and firefighters.

Propane is heavier than
air. Should a leak occur on
a balcony, it will migrate to
lower levels and possibly
enter a unit below where it
can ignite. This is a real po-
tential hazard. As with many
of these grills, their presence
can pose a greater hazard to
those living both below and
above the level of use.

Over the years, we
have made quite an effort
to eliminate their use and
storage on apartment build-

ing balconies. Our attempts
continue. With limited man-
power hours to focus on this
effort however, we have en-
couraged building owners to
prohibit their use in writing
in a tenant's lease or a condo
by-law.

The Quincy Fire Depart-
ment recommends a grill
be used at ground level, at
least 10 feet away from both
sources of ignition and po-
tential combustibles such as
wood siding, deck railings,
etc.

We prefer they not be left
unattended while in use as
well. Considering the close
proximity of some houses
within this community, be
mindful of wind conditions
and smoke migration.

It is not our intent to
discourage grill use or our
residents' best efforts with
them. However, we're look-
ing to have them stored and
used properly and safely.
They have no place used or
stored on balconies.

Please help us in our
continued effort to remove
them; if you have one on a
balcony, please remove it. If
you are aware of one present
on your building, notify the
building owner or trustee of
your concern.

Thank you for doing so.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF MOST FOOT PROBLEMS

In 20 years, many feet
have passed through my
door. The reason for pain
in the majority of them is
due to the obliteration of a
funnel-shaped space in the
rear of the foot called the
sinus tarsi, which is located
t)0tween the talus arxl cal-
caneus.

Since we average up
to 15.000 steps a day, the
t)iochemical pathology can
lead to devastating foot
problems. There are three
phases of one's gait: heel
contact (rigid foot), mid-
stance (mobile adaptor
foot), and push-off (rigid foot
again).

If the arch collapses dur-
ing mid-startce, the foot is
flexible when it should be
rigid. This can lead to bun-
ions, hammertoes, heel
pain, and mon. The best

way to prevent the oblitera-
tion of the space is to put a
spacer or stent in the sinus
tarsi. I have been using this
r>ew techrK)k)gy in my prac-
tice. It is done at a local
hospital in day surgery. The
patient is back in shoes or
sneakers in a week.

Check out www.hypfcure.
com. You wHI see a detailed,
easy-to-understand expla-
natkxi of this wonderful new
procedure. Ankle, knee, hip,
and back problems are also
greatly relieved when the
foot is property aligned. Ear-
ly morning, night and daily
appointments are available
by calling 781 -986-3668. All
patients are welcome. Our
offtees are kx^rted at Milton
Medk;al BuikJing, Suite 221 ;
the Randolph Medk»l Offk»
BuikNng, 999 North Main St. ;
and Quincy Medteal Center.

PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY COVERAGE

If you own a business, as promised in your contract

you should know that business
liability policies do not provide
coverage for professional errors,
contract performance disputes,
or any other professional liability
issues Equally important, if you
run your business out of your
home, your homeowners policy
excludes liability coverage for
anything that is business related
Thus, if you sell a professional
service, it is very imptirtant that
you find the type of insurance that
covers what you do. With this
in mind, "errors and omissions
insurance" (as professional
liability insurance is also known)
protects you from claims in the
event that your clients hold you
responsible for errors, or the
failure of your work to perform

Whether you own a lav^
practice, an accounting practice,
or a construction company, you
or one of your employees can
make a mistake. Protect yourself
from lawsuits bv having errors
and omissions insurance. Please
call JAMES J. SULLIVAN
INSURANCE AGENCY at
617-328-8600 to schedule a
consultation. We offer a full
range of business coverage,
including errors and omissions,
general liability. business
interruption, theft, and key-
person insurance. Our office is
located at 151 Hanc(Kk Street.

!\OTE: Errors and

omissums insurance is hn>kl\
recommended for virtuall\ e\t'r\

A Job Well Done

On Tuesday, June 30, Officers A.J. Carthas and Matt
Hockney were dispatched to the Wollaston Theater locat-
ed at 14 Beale St. for a "pos-
sible vandalism" that just oc-
curred.

Officer Carthas arrived
within 10 seconds and imme-
diately began searching for the
suspect as the description was
given out. The dispatcher stat-
ed that the caller lived in the
area and spotted the suspect
in the Sovereign Bank park-
ing lot, located directly next to
the theater.

The officers met with the
caller and learned that the sus-
pect wandered around the lot for about 5 minutes, then
went into an alleyway that runs behind the movie theater
and went the bathroom. The caller lost sight of the sus-
pect, then heard glass break moments later.

The officers checked that area of the Wollaston
Theater and located a broken window, with the screen
pulled back. Directly below the window was a shop-
ping cart which was set up as an apparent step to gain
entry through the window.

The officers believed that the suspect was now
in the building, so additional units arrived to se-
cure the perimeter of the building. Officer Bob-
by Kelly, and Sergeant Gerald Connolly respond-
ed along with Officer Dave Cooper and his K-9.
With the perimeter surrounded. Officer Cooper and his
dog, Deco went through the same window it was believed
the suspect used and began a search of the movie the-
ater.

Officer Cooper entered the pitch-dark building and
instructed his K-9 to "find" the suspect. Less than five
minutes later, the suspect was found hiding behind some
chairs. Officer Cooper called for Officers to enter the
building to assist in arresting the suspect.

Officer Carthas placed the suspect under arrest and
transported him to the station for booking. The suspect,
a 37-year-old Quincy resident, was charged with Break-
ing and Entering in the Night (Felony), and Defacing/
Vandalizing Property.

Based on recent armed robberies at the 7 Eleven store
located at 721 Hancock St., which is right around the cor-
ner. Detectives will determine if this suspect matches the
description of that robbery. The suspect is a known sub-
stance abuser and the suspect at 7 ELEVEN was armed
with a syringe on two occasions. The suspect lives close
to both the theater and the 7 Eleven store.

Barbara Isola Candidate
For Quincy School Committee

Emily Lebo Announces
Candidacy For School Committee

Barbara Isola of 34 Rand-
lett St., Quincy, announces
her candidacy for Quincy
School Committee.

In her announcement,
Isola said, "For the last 14
years I have been commit-
ted to helping our children
receive an excellent educa-
tion. My children attended
Beech wood Knoll School,
Central Middle School and
North Quincy High School.

"My daughter just gradu-
ated from North Quincy
High School and my son
graduated from the same
school in 2007. Both of my
children had a wonderful ex-
perience in the Quincy Pub-
lic Schools. They received
a first rate education, made
many good friends and both
got accepted into many fine
colleges."

Isola noted her past ex-
perience and commitment to
the Quincy Public Schools:

• Actively served on the
parent teacher organization
at each school my children
attended, and was President
or an officer of each organi-
zation.

• Served as a representa-
tive to the Citywide Parents'
Council for each school my
children attended. "I also
served as treasurer, vice-
president, president and co-
president of the Citywide
Parent's Council over the
years."

• Member of the School
Improvement Council for
each school her children at-
tended. Participated in writ-

ing the annual school im-
provement plan.

• Named Citizen of the
Year by the Ward Five
Community Association in
recognition of her service to
the schools.

• Helped found the
Friends of the Media Cen-
ter to raise money and get
books donated to school li-
braries.

"I certainly do not stand
alone in my commitment
to the schools," Isola said.
"Over the last 14 years 1
have been so fortunate to
work with many parents
who have graciously given
their time and skills to help
ensure our children receive
a quality education.

"I have seen first hand
what can be accomplished
when parents, administra-
tors and teachers work to-
gether for a common goal.
This is what I want to foster,
if elected as a member of the
School Committee.

"People have asked me,
'Why do you want to run
for School Committee when
your children have gradu-
ated?' My answer is that I
firmly believe our public ed-
ucation system is the core of
our community and I want
to do my part to ensure that
other children receive the
same quality education that
my children received.

"We are in the midst
of very difficult economic
times that require strong and
experienced people on the
School Committee to ad-

vocate for our schools and
our children. Why are the
schools so important to our
community? Because good
schools attract good young
families to our community.

"Crood schools produce
educated young adults who
raise the standard of living
and quality of life of our
community. Good schools
benefit all property own-
ers by increasing the value
of our homes. So we all
have a vested interest in our
schools; not just the parents
with children in the school
system.

"In addition to being in-
volved in the schools, my
husband (Timothy McA-
loon) and I have been ac-
tively involved in the com-
munity. Recently, we have
had the pleasure of working
with the dedicated people
at Quincy Access Televi-
sion to create two member
produced shows: a cooking
show. Into the Frying Pan,
which I host, and Inside In-
formation, that Tim hosts.
Prior to this we have been
involved in a number of
civic organizations and vol-
unteered time to different
community activities.

"I would like the opportu-
nity to continue to serve our
community as a representa-
tive on the School Commit-
tee. If the voters see fit to
elect me, I promise to com-
mit my time and talents and
be a strong advocate for our
children and our schools,"
she added.

Emily Lebo, 354 High-
land Ave., WoUaston, an-
nounces her candidacy for
the Quincy School Commit-
tee.

A registered nurse,
teacher and educational ad-
ministrator, Lebo has lived
in the Wollaston neighbor-
hood for more than 30 years
where she and her husband,
Stu, raised their three sons.
Their oldest grandchild will
be starting preschool at Snug
Harbor in the fall.

Having worked in the
Quincy Public Schools for
twenty years, Lebo focused
her work on the expansion
of educational opportunities

Inside Renovated
Abigail Adams Cairn

Over 100

Capsule Buried

In Cairn

Cont 'd From Page I

after officials last year de-
clared its crumbing condi-
tion an emergency.

The monument, which
marks the location where
Abigail Adams took young
John Quincy Adams to
watch the Battle of Bunker
Hill in 1775, was rebuilt
using its original stones by
masons from Phoenix Bay
State Construction. During
the project, workers uncov-
ered a copper box that turned
out to be a time capsule dat-
ing to the Cairn's original
dedication in 1896.

The new time capsule,
in a larger copper box, was
placed inside the Cairn and
sealed by brick and covered
by a new granite plaque at
the ceremony. Workers from
Sheetmetal Workers Lo-
cal 17 built the capsule and
sealed it shut prior to Satur-
day's event, which included

music and a ceremonial vol-
ley by the Braintree Militia.

"From Councillor Ray-
mondi pressing for the re-
pairs, to the discovery of the
original capsule, to this new
piece of history, this has
been a true community ef-
fort," Koch said. 'These are
the kinds of things that make
Quincy so special, and 1 am
grateful to everyone who
helped make it happen."

Koch yielded the mi-
crophone at the event to
his daughter Abigail, who
spoke about her namesake's
impact on history and the
future. Raymondi also took
time to talk about the role
women played during the
Revolutionary years and the
importance of the Cairn.

"Abigail famously said
'Remember the ladies,' so
it is incredibly important
that our conununity came
together to ensure that this

and her role will stand for
the ages," Raymondi said.

Quincy Historical So-
ciety's Edward Fitzgerald,
who coordinated efforts
around the new time cap-
sule, said unlike traditional
time capsules, there would
be no set timeline for open-
ing the capsule.

"It might not be 100
years, it could be 200 or
even 300 years before any-
one opens this time cap-
sule," Fitzgerald said.

John Q. Adams' Service To City, Nation Remembered

Cant 'd From Pa^e I

The following morn-
ing, over 100 attended the
rededication of the Abigail
Adams' Cairn where John
Quincy Adams, then seven
years old, heard the thunder
of canons and witnessed the
smoke from the Battle of
Bunker Hill of the American
Revolution.

It made a lasting impres-
sion on the young Adams,
according to Dr. Edward
Fitzgerald, Quincy Histori-
cal Society.

The third event was held
on Saturday afternoon, 250
officials, residents, tourists
and New Hampshire resi-
dents joined Russian visitors
at Adams National Histori-
cal Park to commemorate
JQA's genius in internation-
al relations which began at
age 14 when he served as a
translator.

Adams' distinguished
public service, also, in-
cluded election as congress-
man, senator and president
as well as appointments as
Secretary of State and min-
ister to Russia, envoy to the
Netherlands.

Fittingly, Adams spoke
his last words in Congress
where he was fatally strick-
en on Feb. 21,1 848 and died
two days later.

Rev. Sheldon Bennett,
Minister at the Presidents'
Church, noted Adams lived
up to his motto to serve an-
other age as his work pro-
vides the basis for many of
our freedoms today.

Mayor Thomas Koch,
Peter Boylston Adams and
Mary Claffey, Massachu-
setts Historical Society, all
cited Adams strong belief
in the abolition of slavery.
Claffey outlined Adams' 18
years' work in Washington
"as one of the strongest abo-
litionist forces in congress.

Peter Boylston Adams,
a direct descendant of both
presidents, also commended
city officials for protecting
the legacy of 100 acres of
Adams' land given the city

by his forebears and ex-
pressed the hope it will re-
main untouched and unde-
veloped "as a lasting gift."

Caroline Keinath, Depu-
ty Superintendent at Adams
National Historical Park de-
scribed Adams' diplomatic
successes, particulariy in
Russia where the United
States and Russia are mark-
ing the 200th anniversary
of Adams' work as ambas-
sador.

One of the visitors at Fri-
day's service Jim Cooke,
portrays John Quincy Ad-
ams at events in the states
and locally. Cooke just com-
pleted a ten-day tour of Rus-
sia for the state department
and described the interest he
found on Russian university
campuses where he met 600
to700 students dressed a
John Quincy Adams.

While Adams succeeded
in the public sphere, he was
also known for his curt na-
ture which, at times, verged
on "vitriolic," according
to Dr. Edward Fitzgerald
Quincy Historical Society.

Fitzgerald described Ad-
ams' firm belief in the Con-
stitution and democracy but,
also, noted he didn't hide
his opinions on subjects or
people.

In his diary, he called the
dedication of Bunker Hill
monument a 'burlesque' be-
cause the featured speakers
were President John Tyler
and Daniel Webster.

"What has this (cer-
emony) to do with Quincy
granite, a symbol of New
England character?" Ad-
ams asked rhetorically in his
diary notes about the cer-
emony.

Lt. Commander Chris-
topher Orlowski, USN,
led the official delegation
to the tombs below where
the four-foot wreath of red,
white and blue flowers from
the president was laid atop
Adams' crypt.

This wreath marked the
25th year that local florist,
Clifford Flowers, has pre-

(ARA) - Gas and energy
prices are rising again, and
that means Americans must
tighten their belts even fur-
ther. You don't need to dread
hot summer temps and high
air conditioning bills when
you have ceiling fans in
your home.

If you already have
fans in place, check to see
whether they are Energy
Star qualified. Ceiling fan
and light combinations that
have earned Energy Star
accreditation are about 50
percent more efficient than
non-conforming units. The
difference lies in improved
motors and blade designs. A
model with an Energy Star
light kit included provides
even greater energy savings,
and the bulbs don't need to
be changed as often.

"Consumer demand for
more energy-efficient prod-
ucts has driven the industry
to integrate new lighting,
blade and motor technolo-
gies that save operating
costs. New products inte-
grating the latest technolo-
gies are up to 75 percent
more efficient than previous
models" says Steve Cox,
vice president and general
manager of Emerson Ceil-
ing Fans.

Paul Vrabel , a principal at
ICF International, an energy
solutions firm that partners
with govemment clients,
explains how to operate
fans correctly. "Put them on
when you are in the room
— during the day and when
sleeping - and turn them
off when you leave. Ceiling

fans cool people, not air,"
he says. "Using fans wisely
while turning down the lair
conditioner] can save a lot
of money."

Ceiling fans do such an
efficient job of circulating
air, they probably should be
everywhere. "Any type of
room can benefit," says Na-
than Frampton, president of
ceiling fan company Fani-
mation. "Bedrooms, family
rooms, and exterior living
spaces are the most com-
mon applications, but we
are seeing [them used] more
in larger bathrooms, walk-
in closets, home offices and
garages."

Size matters

Dennis Davenport, vice
president of product devel-
opment for Monte Carlo
Fans, concurs. "Consumers
are installing ceiling fans
throughout their homes," he
says, pointing to the rapid
growth of models in all siz-
es. "For example, fans with
blade spans of 54, 60 and 72
inches are increasingly pop-
ular for living rooms, while
those with 24-inch spans are
being installed in hallways
and walk-in closets."

How do you estimate the
best size for your needs? "A
good rule of thumb is a 36-
to 52-inch diameter blade
sweep for rooms measur-
ing 200 square feet or less,"
Frampton says. "For rooms
200 to 400 square feet, we
recommend a diameter
of 52 inches or greater; if
the space is more than 400
square feet, two or more
fans will be needed."

The number of blades
makes some difference in
airflow, however, whether
to choose a four-, five-, or
six-blade version is really a
matter of aesthetics, accord-
ing to Frampton. "You hear a
lot about blade pitch, diam-
eter and motor size. These
are factors that will affect
airflow, but in the end the
best way to judge is to stand
under the fan you prefer and
decided if the airflow feels
sufficient," he says.

It's important not to un-
derestimate. "The most
common size sold in the
U.S. is a 52-inch diameter.
This fan size provides ex-
cellent results in rooms
up to 150 square feet, but
can also be appropriate for
smaller rooms since it can
be adjusted with multiple
speeds and the direction of
the blades can be reversed,"
says Joe Rey-Barreau, edu-
cation consultant for the
American Lighting Associa-
tion (ALA) and an associate
professor at the University
of Kentucky's School of In-
terior Design. "It's better to
choose a slightly larger fan
for a room than to choose a
diameter that might prove to
be too small to adequately
provide air movement."

Do you need a light kit?

Many fans now come
with integrated lighting or
offer a coordinating light kit
available as an option. These
lights do not offer enough il-
lumination on their own, but
they are useful in a room
that already has some form
of ambient lighting. "Ceil-

ing fan lights should be con-
sidered as accent and mood
lighting," Davenport says.

Should a ceiling fan
blend in or stand out?

The next step to consider
is whether you'd like it to
serve as a focal point or be
more understated. "Is the
room contemporary, tradi-
tional, tropical or transition-
al? Ceiling fans can serve
as a design feature," says
Frampton.

."The primary trend in
ceiling fan design has been
for styles that create aes-
thetic statements as bold
as a chandelier," says Rey-
Barreau. "This follows the
overall trend in residential
design for more varied and
more sophisticated concepts.
Today a consumer can find a
ceiling fan that matches any
interior design."

Fans help in winter, too

In the summer, ceiling
fans offer a comfortable
alternative and accompani-
ment to air conditioning, but
in the winter employing the
reversible blade option pro-
vides a means of circulating
the hotter air that rises to
the ceiling. This helps save
on heating bills when the
weather gets cold.

fans for year-round comfort

Dollars
and $en$e

by David Uffington

Financial Advice
for New Parents

Typical costs for a new
baby can run between
$11,000 and $16,000 for the
first year. By the time the
child turns 18, you'll have
spent more than $200,000.
If you're thinking of start-
ing a family but the state
of the economy makes you
hesitate, "The Wall Street
Journal Financial Guide-
book for New Parents" by
Stacey L. Bradford (Three
Rivers Press, $14.95) offers
many how-to ideas and sug-
gestions.

Here are some high-
lights:

• Maternity leave. If you
work, learn the specifics of
you company's matemity-
or paternity-leave policy. It
might not be what you ex-
pect. If you assume you'll
automatically get a certain
amount of time off with dis-
ability payments, and you
end up with no salary at
all, you need to know that
in advance. The size of the
company dictates what it's
obligated to give you — if
anything. The Guidebook
tells you your rights.

• Health-care costs.
Health insurance and medi-
cal care can be two of the
biggest expenses you'll
have. The Guidebook ex-
plores both flexible spend-

ing accounts and health sav-
ings accounts. It's possible,
for example, to set up a FSA
with pre-tax dollars to pay
for day care once you go
back to work.

• Saving for college
while you save for your own
retirement. Rule of thumb:
The kids can take out school
loans, but you'll need money
m place for retirement.

• Work versus day care.
Is it really cheaper to give
up your job and stay home
to save on child-care costs?
According to the Guide-
book, day care could cost
you upward of $30,000 per
year, depending where you
live, but if you don't keep
working you'll also be giv-
ing up benefits, including a
retirement plan. And what
about when you want to re-
turn to work but can't get
back at the same salary level
as when you left?

• Money-saving tips for
every stage of your child's
life. From making a will and
setting up a guardian in case
something happens to you,
to the real costs of moving to
the suburbs to save money
and the differences between
a baby sitter and an au pair
~ it's all there.

This book is loaded with
information for all parents,
not just new ones.

20 Projects In Just 20 Minutes

Since every dollar counts
these days, homeowners
need sensible home im-
provement products that can
help increase the value of
their homes without break-
ing the bank.

Fypon to the rescue.

"Easy-to-install urethane
and PVC products can en-
hance the interior and ex-
terior of any home without
busting a budget," says Tina
Mealer with Fypon.

"For a minimal product
investment and even less
'sweat equity,' homeowners
can gain maximum results.
Whether it's adding mould-
ing to a room or replacing a
set of rotted wooden shut-
ters, there are easy -care
synthetic products available
to improve a home's appeal
and value."

Mealer 's favorite 20 "no
sweat" 20-minute home im-
provement projects include:

1 . Place a crosshead over
an outside window with a
keystone to add curb appeal
to the exterior of the home.

2. Wrap unsightly metal
supports in a finished base-
ment with PVC Column
Wraps to add style to the
room.

3. Use Victorian-style
nips and spires to accent

exterior areas, fencing and
gated areas.

4. Upgrade the look of
a boring kitchen island by
adding decorative brackets
or corbels as accent pieces.

5. Add a urethane pine-
apple, the international sign
of hospitality, above your
front entry door.

6. Dress up a porch area
by adding brackets to porch
posts.

7. Cover up unsightly
wooden porch posts with a
semi-assembled, two-piece
classic style PVC Column
Wrap.

8. Install carved leaf or
grapevine brackets under
kitchen countertops and
shelves to add dimension
and visual appeal to the
room.

9. Add a two-piece ure-
thane ceiling medallion
around a ceiling fan or light-
ing fixture to "pop" some
visual friendliness to the
ceiling.

10. Add moisture-re-
sistant corbels to the top of
cabinets to present a more
finished look in the bath-
room or laundry room.

1 1 . Create a unique win-
dow treatment by hanging a
pair of brackets on either side
of a window. Insert a dowel

rod through the brackets and
drape with fabric for a fast
and easy decorative window
treatment.

12. Accent interior door-
ways with a keystone.

13. Install a set of mois-
ture-resistant urethane pi-
lasters on both sides of your
shower stall and a door
crosshead overhead to up-
grade the look of your bath-
room.

14. Create custom-
ized shelves to house knick
knacks using moulding or
PVC boards. Faux finish the
pieces to make your collec-
tion stand out.

15. Add a one-piece fire-
place mantel surround to an
existing fireplace or create
a faux fireplace area using
these durable accent pieces.

16. Create a welcoming
look over a garage or gable
area by installing a urethane
wreath and bow. The three-
piece accent is 86" long and
38" high and makes a stun-
ning accent on the home.

17. Flank the window
opening between two rooms
(like a kitchen and family
room) with a pair of urethane
shutters. The lightweight
shutters can be stained or
painted to accent the walls.

18. Top off a standard

bookshelf with an impres-
sive combination acorn
pediment to add style in any
room.

19. Add a scalloped
moulding border to a child's
room to launch into a prin-
cess or medieval theme for
the room.

20. Install a set of pi-
lasters on either side of the
garage door and a long door
crosshead over the top.

"Each of these projects
can easily be completed in
just 20 minutes," says Meal-
er. "These are simple do-it-
yourself projects that quick-
ly and effectively upgrade
your home and bring years
of lasting satisfaction."

Fypon offers thousands
of decorative millwork ele-
ments in a variety of archi-
tectural styles to enhance
the interior and exterior of
America's homes.

Each piece is crafted
from tough, weather-proof,
high-performance materials
that are impervious to de-
cay, insect infestation and
water damage for long-las-
ting beauty and low main-
tenance.

(ARA) - You may be
able to get a few more years
out of your car, and you've
definitely decided to put off
purchasing a big-screen,
high-def plasma TV. But
sometimes buying furniture
is not a luxury, it's a neces-
sity.

When you see ads for
no-interest financing deals,
you may feel better about
replacing your decrepit din-
ing room set or ditching that
couch that threatens to col-
lapse every time the kids
sit on it. There certainly are
good deals available in a re-
cession, and you shouldn't
put off buying something
you really need. But the
concept of "buyer beware"
becomes even more impor-
tant in an economy where
furniture dealers are all
equally desperate for your
dollars, but not all equally
ethical in how they go about

getting you to hand over
your money.

Brad Haas , a furniture ex-
pert with manufacturer Car-
rington Court Direct, offers
a few tips to make sure you
get the best possible deal on
furniture in an economic
downturn, when it's more
important than ever to get
the most for your money.

Consider these issues
when evaluating a furniture
purchase:

* Is shipping free? Prob-
ably not. Shipping furniture
can be costly and no store
can afford to eat that cost.
If they're advertising free
shipping, most likely the
shipping costs have been
rolled into the sales price.
Calculate the cost of ship-
ping (usually 15 to 20 per-
cent of the price) and deduct
that amount from the asking
price.

* Beware of no interest/

no payments schemes. These
plans usually are attached to
lower-quality furniture that
will last five years or less.
By the time you're done
paying it off, the furniture is
worn out and you'll need to
buy (and possibly finance)
new furniture again.

* Going-out-of-business
sales are not always a good
deal. There are companies
that specialize in this type
of business. The furniture
may be marked up above
retail prices before being
"discounted," giving you a
false perception that you're
getting a good deal.

Shopping online can be a
good way to get great deals
on furniture, Haas says. You
can easily compare prices,
save time and gas by not
driving around to multiple
stores, and you'll find a large
selection of styles and fab-

rics to choose from - proba-
bly more than you would be
able to find in your average
furniture showroom. Keep
in mind you won't see the
piece until it's actually de-
livered, so be sure to choose
online merchants whose
sites offer plenty of infor-
mation and who emphasize
customer satisfaction and
service.

Look for online sellers,
where you'll be buying from
and dealing directly with the
manufacturer. You'll find
more affordable prices and
better customer service.

"In a down economy,
many people may be reluc-
tant to buy furniture they re-
ally need," Haas says. "But
it is possible to find a good
deal on quality furniture, if
you know where and how to
look for it."

Series Against Norwood Legion Started Tuesday

Morrisette Makes AL
Playoffs On Tiebreakers

By SEAN BRENNAN

A two-tiered tiebreaker
between Morrisette, Wey-
mouth and Holbrook Legion
was needed to determine
which two of these three
teams would advance into
this week's best two-out-of-
three American Legion Dis-
trict 6 East-West playoffs.

All three teams from
District 6 East concluded
their season with 22 total
points. Morrisette, at 11-11
overall, and Holbrook at
10-10-2, earned the coveted
spots over Weymouth (11-
8) based on two important
criteria. Morrisette earned
its spot based on its 1-1 re-
cord against Weymouth and
its +2 total runs advantage
in games played; Holbrook
advanced based on its 2-0
record versus Weymouth
during the regular season.
Morrisette was seeded fourth
out of five teams in District
6 East playoff standings.

Morrisette, as a result of
making the American Legion
playoffs for the first time
since 2006, was scheduled
to open its playoff series on
Tuesday evening against the
#2 seed Norwood Legion of
District 6 West.

These two teams were
also scheduled to play
Wednesday night (July 15)
at 7:30 at Adams Field and
will play again (if neces-
sary) tonight at 7 p.m. in
Norwood.

Quincy Legion Post 95,
the city's other American
Legion baseball team, was
knocked out of the playoff
picture on Saturday follow-
ing a late-season surge back
into playoff contention,
(^incy Legion finished
their season at 9-13.

"It was a little nerve-
wracking waiting to see if
we would get into the play-
offs," said Morrisette's Bill
Marchand. "We had to wait
to the very last minute and
then had to win the tiebreak-
ers to eam our spot, but we
did and now we are ready to
challenge Norwood for the
right to make it to the next
round. This team has fought
all season to get back into
the playoffs and we have

had to deal with plenty of
ups-and-downs, but the kids
have played hard all year
and now we have a chance
to make some noise.

"We have played Nor-
wood before in the playoffs
and we know that they are a
very strong team. They are
usually a number one or two
seed so it should be a chal-
lenge to say the least. They
have played well all year
and their pitching should be
well rested. We are going to
have to move some people
around and make adjust-
ments on the fly because we
really have exhausted our
pitching staff just trying to
get all of our games in."

At the start of last week
Morrisette was sitting on an
8-8 record. The team went
3-3 to get to 11-11 overall.
The week started with a
19-2 win over Hyde Park,
followed by a 9-1 win over
Quincy Legion, a 10-0 loss
to Quincy Legion, a 17-4
loss to Jamaica Plain, a 10-3
loss to Weymouth and a huge
13-8 win over Braintree.

In the Braintree game,
Morrisette's Kevin Magoon
and Ricky Salvucci com-
bined to pitch their team
into the playoffs. Salvucci,
pitching in his first game
of the season, threw three
innings, allowing one hit,
striking out two batters and
allowing one run.

The offense got on the
scoreboard early, scoring
five runs in the opening
frame. Leadoff hitter Danny
Russell singled; Colin Ryan
singled; Matt Rodriquez
walked; Salvucci drove in
Russell with a sacrifice fly;
Joe Vialpando singled scor-
ing Ryan; John Ainsley had
a RBI single and Ryan Louis
capped off the scoring with
another run-scoring single.

In the second inning, Sal-
vucci singled and scored on
a Vialpando RBI double.

Braintree ( 1 2-7) did come
back to take a 7-6 lead in the
fifth iiming, but Morrisette
rallied back on the heels of
a huge bottom of the fifth
inning to take the lead for
good. John Ainsley got it
started with a walk; Louis

walked; Devin Hudson tied
the game with a RBI single;
Greg Nelson walked to re-
load the bases and Russell
snapped the 7-7 tie with a
big two-run single. Ryan
drove home the team's tenth
run with a sacrifice fly.

"It was a big win, we re-
ally needed it," said March-
and. "Ricky did a great job
pitching for us when we
needed a fresh arm and the
offense came up clutch. It
ended up being a very im-
portant win. It got us into
the playoffs."

Earlier in the week Mor-
risette and Quincy Legion
played a double-header at
Adams Field. Morrisette
took Game One , 9- 1 , behind
the solid pitching of Alex
Tragellis (seven innings.

Team's Overall Record Was 6-1-1

QYS U-14 Girls Dl Team
Finishes Successful Season

The Quincy Youth Soc-
cer Under-14 Division 1
girls travel team recently
completed a successful 2009
spring season in the South
Shore Soccer League. The
team ended the regular sea-
son with a record of 6-1-1
and advanced all the way to
the Final Four of the SSSL
playoffs.

Division 1 in the SSSL
provides the highest level
of competition and this
year, included teams from
Brockton, Bridge water. East
Bridge water, Weymouth,
Braintree, Easton and Han-
son. The team's 2009 record
was a considered a great ac-
complishment as the girls
improved on last year's
record when they finished
with two ties playing in the
Under- 13 league.

This year during SSSL
play, Quincy scored 29 goals
and held opponents to just
14. The team was involved in
many exciting games includ-
ing a double overtime game
in the league playoffs against
East Bridgewater in which
Quincy played for most of
the game with only one sub-
stitute because of injuries.

The spring season fol-
lowed what was also a
successful indoor season
(winter) at the South Shore
Sports Center where Quincy
finished with a 6-2 record,
scoring 72 goals to their op-
ponents'21.

Quincy, throughout the
season, displayed skill and
athleticism with many play-
ers playing multiple posi-
tions on the pitch in the
same game. In addition, ev-
ery player on the team had at
least one goal or assist and
on occasion, game officials
commented that they had not
seen as talented a team from
Quincy in quite some time.

"The girls' commitment
to soccer this year was sim-
ply outstanding," said Coach
Howard Cabral. "Through-
out our winter training
and spring practices, they
worked extremely hard and
really enjoyed themselves.
They were probably the best
group that I've had the plea-
sure of coaching in my years
with Quincy Youth Soccer."

Added Coach Derek
McCleary: "This team has
developed a great deal of
chemistry over the years.

Their much improved skill
level this year coupled with
their tireless work ethic and
commitment to training re-
sulted in one of the strongest
Quincy travel teams I have
been involved with over the
last 10 years. It was a plea-
sure watching their success
this season in a very competi-
tive division and they should
all hold their heads high for
such a great season."

Team members includ-
ed Callie Cabral, Lauren
Campo, Stephanie DiPietro,
Meredith Durham, Brianna
Foley, Roisin Henry, Liz
Kelly, Alyssa Lydon, Shan-
non McCleary, Haley McK-
ay, Samantha Miner, Carina
Montrond-Silveira, Jess
O' Donovan, Jaclyn Scuzza-
rella, Arianna Viscione and
Olivia Wallace.

The team would also like
to thank Dana Santilli, co-
ordinator of the QYS travel
program, for his constant
support. Without his help
with fundraising, arranging
practice space and working
with the SSSL on the team's
behalf, the season would not
have been as successful as it
was.

Team Finished Week 3-1

Quincy Babe Ruth 15- Year
Olds Reach District Finals

The Quincy Babe Ruth
15-year old team finished
last week with an impres-
sive 3-1 record in its Babe
Ruth District tournament to
reach the tournament finals
to be held later this month.

Quincy lost its opener
to Weymouth (4-3), but
stormed back to capture
wins over Duxbury (2-1),
Kingston (14-7) and Wey-
mouth (19-10) to cam their
trip to the district finals.

Quincy def. Weymouth,
19-10

Last Saturday io their re-

match against Weymouth,
Quincy 's bats heated up
and produced 19 hits and
19 runs. The pitching com-
bination of Joe Alibrandi
and Lukas McDonough
held Weymouth's offense in
check and Alibrandi helped
out his own cause with four
hits.

Adam Nazzaro (single,
double, triple), Hm Liuzzo
and Justin Coscia (each
with a single, double), \fike
Stille, Sam Lawlor and Tor-
rey Gustin (each with two
singles), Lukas McDonough

(triple) and Dan Higgins
(single) all produced at the
plate for (^ncy against
Weymouth.

Andrew Rogantino, Tim
Liuzzo and Mike Stille
played strong games de-
fensively for Quincy Babe
Ruth.
Quincy def. Kingston, 14-7

On July 10 against Kings-
ton, Quincy finished with 15
hits and 14 runs. Adam Naz-
zaro threw seven innings
(complete game), dominat-
ing Kingst(Mi and helping

three hits, three strike-
outs). Salvucci (2-for-4),
Vialpando (2-for-3, BB).
Ainsley (2-for-3, BB) and
Ryan (3-for-5) paced the of-
fensive attack.

Quincy Legion's Kevin
Keith shut down Morrisette
in Game Two, helping his
team to a 10-0 win.

At the beginning of the
week Morrisette demolished
Hyde Park Legion 19-2.
Ryan Louis earned his fifth
victory of the year on the
mound, allowing two hits,
striking out five batters and
allowing two runs.

Salvucci (3-for-3, HR,
four RBI, four runs scored),

Rodriquez (2-for-3, three
runs, two RBI) and Louis
(2-for-3, HR, two runs, five
RBI) did most of the dam-
age at the dish for Morrisette
Legion.

"The regular season was
a grind on not just our team
but all of District 6 East,"
added Marchand. "The rainy
weather put all of the teams
in tough spots and we are
really happy that we won
enough games to advance.
It is a true testament to the
quality of players we had
this season. Our veterans,
including Salvucci , Vialpan-
do, Tragellis, stepped up and
our younger players such as
Ainsley, Louis, Rodriquez,
Magoon, Joe Edgeriy, Ryan

and Russell played great. We
will see how it plays out, but
we are confident the series
will be very competitive."

Notes: Salvucci finished
the regular season with
a .583 batting average, a
.630 on-base percentage, 30
RBI and 22 runs scored...
Quincy Legion Post 95 fin-
ished their season with wins
over Cohasset (13-9) and
Braintree (9-8)... Against
Cohasset, Keith Morreale
and Scott Warwick both
went 3-for-4 with two runs
scored and two RBI. Kevin
Keith earned the win on the
rnound... Billy Kiley drove
in the winning run with
a three-run triple against
Braintree.

QRD Adds Two Tandem
Kayaks To Fleet

The Quincy Recreation
Department (QRD) an-
nounced Tuesday that two
tandem kayaks have been
added to the existing fleet at
the William F. Ryan Boat-
ing and Sailing facility at
Black's Creek.

The popular summer pro-
gram, located at Merrymount
Park, has instructional and
recreational programs in
rowing, canoeing, kayaking
and sailing seven days each
week during July and Au-
gust.

According to Barry J.
Welch, Director of Recre-

ation, the new tandem kay-
aks are a great addition to
the fleet.

"They are versatile, stable
and comfortable and ideal
for families and beginner
paddlers."

Participants may still reg-
ister for the full-package of
summer programs for both
children and adults. Instruc-
tional programs are offered
in all boats under a variety
of memberships for family,
youth and adult. There are
also value priced canoe and
kayak memberships for rec-
reational use of canoes and

kayaks.

The natural saltwater la-
goon where Furnace Brook
meets the sea is an ideal lo-
cation, which is safe and re-
markably beautiful for this
activity. The entrance to the
facility is through Merry-
mount Park and the Pageant
Field parking area. There is
ample parking in the lot at
the east end of Merrymount
Park.

Registration can be done
in person at the facility and
more information is avail-
able by calling the QRD at
617-376-1397.

25 Quincy Residents To Ride
in 30th Pan-MA Challenge

Home Opener Scheduled For July

Quincy Militia

On August 1-2, 25 resi-
dents of Quincy will be riding
in the 30"' annual Pan-Mas-
sachusetts Challenge (PMC),
the nation's pioneer chanty
bike-a-thon that raises more
money than any other athletic
fundraising event in the coun-
try. The 25 Quincy riders will
be among the more than 5, OCX)
cyclists who will ride with the
collective goal of raising mil-
lions of dollars for lifesaving
cancer research and care for
adult and pediatric cancer pa-
tients at Dana-Farber Cancer
Institute through its Jimmy
Fund.

PMC riders are between
13 and 85 years of age; many
riders are seasoned cyclists
or tri-athletes, while others
are PMC weekend warriors,
having trained for this event
alone. Doctors ride along side
their patients; friends and
family members ride in honor

of loved ones lost to, or bat-
tling, cancer. Nearly 300 can-
cer survivors will ride to give
back and give thanks for be-
ing given a second chance.

"Even in a down economy,
people are making a commit-
ment to fundraise and ride in
the PMC in order to help raise
money for cancer research,"
said Billy Starr, PMC founder
and executive director. "Can-
cer doesn't stop because of a
recession and neither do PM-
Cers."

Since 1980, the PMC has
raised more than $240 million
for cancer research and care at
Dana-Farber Cancer Institute,
and, last year, the PMC gave
100% of every rider-raised
dollar directly to the Jimmy
Fund. The PMC generates
more than 50% of the Jimmy
Fund's annual revenue and is
Dana-Farber 's largest single
contributor.

The PMC is a fully sup-
ported bike-a-thon-with food
and water stops, mechanical
and medical assistance, lug-
gage transjx)rtation and lodg-
ing-that runs through 46 cities
and towns across the state.

Cyclists are required to rise
between $ 1 ,000 and $4,200 to
ride in the PMC; yet, the aver-
age PMCer raises more than
$6,000. This commitment to
the fundraising portion of the
PMC journey is a testament to
rider's dedication to the cause
and their belief in the PMC
mission.

tion to a rider from Quincy,

Open Inaugural Season With

Win

Football is a sport usu-
ally reserved for the fall and
early winter months, but this
summer, fans of the great-
est game on turf, now have
the chance to come out and
watch a new team in town.

The Quincy Militia, an
expansion franchise in the
49-year-old semi-pro East-
em Football League (EFL),
opened its inaugural season
last Sunday with a game
against the Hyde Park Semi-
noles, and right away, the
Militia made it a point to
show the rest of the EFL,
that although they may be
the new team in town, they
mean business.

The Militia cruised to
a 32-22 victory over Hyde
Park behind a big game on
the ground by E)olan Read
(four carries, 144 yards,
three TDs) and solid defense
from Chris Dolbeare (seven
tackles, fumble recovery)
and Evan DeCastro (nine
tackles, INT).

"The whole team, on
both sides of the ball, never
gave up and when we were
down, at halftime, they came
out fighting to take the lead
and never looked back," said
Militia Head Coach Vaughan
Driscoll. "True commitment,
unity and hard nose play!"

With their season-opening

victory in the books, the Mi-
litia will be looking to make
it two wins in a row (the
team is scheduled to play a
12 week/iO-game schedule)
when they take to the field at
Quincy 's Veterans Memorial
Stadium this Saturday night
(July 18) at 7 p.m. to play
against the Brockton Buc-
caneers.

Gates open at 5:30 p.m.
and admission is $5. Kids
under the age of 10 are ad-
mitted for free.

This summer, the Mili-
tia joined forces with the
EFL as part of a four-team
expansion plan, joining the
Hyde Park Seminoles, the

Bridgewater Gladiators and
the Seacoast (Exeter, NH)
Vipers as new teams in the
league. EFL holdovers the
Randolph Oilers, the Brock-
ton Buccaneers, the Charles-
town Townies and the Clin-
ton Irish Blizzards make up
the reminder of the eight-
team league.

Driscoll (GM/HC), Kevin
Callahan (defensive coach).
Mark Cipriano (wide receiv-
er coach). Rick Gibson (as-
sistant WR coach) and Tom
Donahue (owner) coach the
Militia and many of the cur-
rent players are alumni of ei-
ther Quincy or North Quincy
High School.

ule is as follows:

(ARA) - It's not unusual
to see viruses make head-
lines, but the recent threat
of HlNl swine flu has cap-
tured everyone's attention.
On June 11, 2009, the Cen-
ters for Disease Control and
Prevention raised the HlNl
pandemic status to level six,
indicating an international
pandemic. This change has
left many people wonder-
ing what they can do to keep
themselves and their fami-
lies healthy.

Why is HlNl different
than other viruses? Recently,
scientists discovered that the
2009 HlNl swine flu virus
is more like the H5N1 avian
flu than the historic 1918
pandemic HlNl Spanish flu
strain. That means previous
flu vaccines are less effec-
tive and extra precautions at
home should take place.

Dr. Roger Mazlen, an
internist in Rosyln Heights,
N.Y., with more than 30
years of experience practic-
ing internal medicine and
nutrition, recently discussed
the current swine flu out-

breaks.

Swine flu, or HlNl,
was first isolated in a pig in
1930, according to the CDC.
The virus has demonstrated
an ability to migrate from
domestic pigs to humans.
Mazlen says there are sever-
al factors contributing to the
current swine flu outbreak,
including environmental,
cultural and economic is-
sues.

"The current recession,
loss of retirement funds,
compromised nutrition,
reduced exercise, obesity
and other factors produce
immune depression. A de-
pressed immune system
cannot fight off the invasion
of viral and other pathogens
that attempt to find a home
to set up infections in our
bodies," he says.

In order to help you
and your family during the
2009/10 flu season, Mazlen
offers these protection strat-
egies:

1 . Wash your hands fre-
quently and stay hydrated

"Frequent hand washing

is a start. Also, lots of daily
water helps to hydrate the
body and assist the immune
system," he says.

2. Fish oil helps supports
the immune system.

Vitamin and mineral sup-
plements add fortification,
but Mazlen suggests adding
fish oil because of its clini-
cally-proven immune func-
tion support. Fish oil blends
are available as gel capsules
or in liquid form at health-
food stores and several dif-
ferent brands are also avail-
able at www.puritan.com.

3. Use a prescription
right away.

Mazlen says that Tami-
flu, the currently recom-
mended prescription medi-
cation used in flu and swine
flu, is most effective when
used within a few hours of
the first viral symptoms. But
swine flu, as reported by the
CDC, has an ability to mu-
tate within hours. Tamiflu
may be effective for swine
flu in the morning, and may
be ineffecfive by the end of

the day because of viral mu-
tation.

4. Skip the Echinacea

When asked if the popu-
lar herbal remedy Echinacea
could be effective, Mazlen
explains that studies have
proved the product has min-
imal effectiveness. He says
he prefers a natural immune-
stimulating product, which
he has used with over 500
pafients, including his fam-
ily members. The product
was originally developed in
Russia, but is now made in
the United States. Mazlen
says he has had good results
during the past years with
patients fighting flu and oth-
er infections. The product,
Del-Immune V, is available
at www.delimmune.com.

Early measures to pro-
tect health might be the key
to minimizing potentially
serious infections. "It is im-
portant to have an immune
defense strategy this year —
the earlier the better," Ma-
zlen concludes.

VOICE
FOR

HEALTH

by Dr. Gabrielle Freedman

Chiropractor $

MANIPULATIVE, IN THE BEST SENSE OF THE WORD

Much of chiropractic
treatment involves "spinal
manipulation," a high-velocity
thrust that chiropractors deliver
by hand. The intent is to move
a joint beyond its normal range
of motion but not beyond the
range that it was designed to
handle. This has the effect of
providing more room for nerves
to exit the spine, relaxing the
muscles by virtue of stretching
them suddenly, breaking up
adhesions or scar tissue to
keep the spine flexible, and/or
moving displaced vertebrae back
in place. To determine which
vertebrae need to be adjusted,
the chiropractor feels the joints
of the spine while at rest and in
motion. Once the determination
is made, the manipulation is
delivered manually using one of
a number of specific techniques.

Chiropractic care has been
shown to be extremely effective
in maintaining improved health
and well-being through its ability
to integrate several approaches
to health which can easily be
adopted into one's lifestyle.
At FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC, your good
health is our main concern.
Call us at 617.472.4220 today
to schedule an appointment. We
are educated and trained in the
detection and care of problems
of the spinal column and in
maintaining the delicate balance
of the neck and spine. Our
office is located at 112 McGrath
Hwy., Quincy. Chiropractic is a
scientifically sound and time-
proven natural way to health.

PS. Spinal manipulation has
been documented as far back as
the time of Hippocrates and the

ancient Egyptians.

muscles in your legs and
around your knees and hips.

• Go for a spin. Station-
ary cycling strengthens your
heart, hips and knees ~ with
less impact on joints than
other forms of cardiovas-
cular exercise, such as run-
ning. For those new to sta-
tionary cycling, start slowly
with a five-minute session
at a comfortable pace three
times per day.

• Make a splash. Using
a combination of sooth-
ing warm water and gentle
movements helps increase
joint flexibility and range of
motion. Studies have shown
aquatic-based exercise helps
to restore and maintain mus-
cle strength, relieve pain and
stiffness and provide a com-
munity support system for
people with arthritis. Those
looking to get started can
explore the Arthritis Foun-

dation Aquatic Program,
which is offered in most
major cities.

• Go with the flow. Tai
chi is a noncompetitive,
self- paced system of gen-
tle physical exercise and
stretching. Participants in
a tai chi program follow a
series of postures or move-
ments in a slow, graceful
manner. Each posture flows
into the next without paus-
ing. Experts agree that tai
chi may improve mobility,
breathing and relaxation.
Plus, the movements don't
require deep bending or
squatting, which makes it
easier and more comfortable
to learn.

A Thought
foR Tne ^£it(

Many people strive to leave an estate
made up of land, stock and bonds,
and money in the bank. This can not
be faulted for it is not fundamentally
wrong, of course. .. But there is a dif-
ferent kind of estate that never needs,
or even can be probated. . .

The very best estate is an
honorable name, a good reputation, a record of righteous,
useful living. . . A legacy of an honorable name, a legacy of
profound respect for facts, a deep reverence for chai'acter,
a thirst for wisdom, a dedication for work - is far more
important and more meaningful than money itself. These
things can NEVER be detrimental, while money and assets
at times CAN be.

A legacy of decency is NOT an impossible legacy. . . It is
an estate ANY parent can leave to his or her children ... In
the funeral home field we have witnessed it time and time
again. . . And if you look back, we are sure you can say the
same thing with equal or perhaps even more emphasis.

We welcome and appreciate any conunents or thoughts
you may have concerning the thoughts you read here.

ARIES (March 21 to April

19) Your Aries leadership qual-
ities can help bring order out of
all that confusion, whether it's
on the job or in the home. But
be careful to guide, not goad,
others into following you.

TAURUS (April 20 to May

20) Applying a more personal
view to a job-linked issue could
help provide better insight into
those persistent problems. Use
your keen Taurean logic to cut
through the double-talk.

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Taking some time off could
be the best way to get through
that seemingly endless round
of demands. You'll return re-
freshed and ready to tackle
things from a new perspective.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Restoring a sagging profes-
sional relationship takes a lot of
effort. By all means, state your
position. But also make sure
you pay close attention to the
other person's point of view.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
A hot prospect intrigues the Big
Cat, who is always on the prowl
for a promising investment. But
be careful that this "promise"
has a chance of being kept.
Check it out more carefully.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) A friend could use
some of your compassion and
concern. If he or she doesn't
ask for help, be sure you step
up and make the first move.
Also, check out a new career
possibility.

LIBRA (September 23 to
October 22) You might have
difficulty getting your opin-
ions heard because of all the
noise being made by the other

side. But hang in there. Others
should line up with you once
they learn the facts.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 2 1 ) Offering to help
a colleague is commendable.
But before you commit your
time and effort, check to see if
that person's situation is all that
he or she has led you to believe
it is.

SAGITTARIUS (Novem
ber 22 to December 21) You
should sot)n be seeing positive
results from your recent efforts
on behalf of a family member.
On another matter, check that
you have all the facts regarding
a job assignment.

CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 1 9) Your aspects
favor closer family relation-
ships this week. Take time for
visits, whether in person, by
phone, by mail or in cyber-
space. Let them know how im-
portant they are to you.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A missed oppor-
tunity isn't always a negative.
Maybe your instincts are telling
you not to rush into something
you "thought" was worthwhile.
Make time for family this
weekend.

PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Your sense of humor
helps you get through a tricky
situation. But some stick-in-the-
muds might not be so willing to
make the changes that you and
others agree are necessary.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a gift for making everyone
you know — or even just met -
feel important and welcome in
your life.

FIRE PREVENTION AIDS - Mayor Thomas Koch and fire officials accept a $2580
check from Michael Spaziani, FMS Manager, during a recent ceremony at North
Quincy Fire Station. The grant funds will provide new equipment for the city's Fire
Prevention Bureau. From left are Acting Fire Chief Joseph Barron, Mayor Koch, Spa-
ziani, and Captain Richard Bryan of the Fire Prevention Bureau.

Photo CourtesY Quinc\ Fire Department

$2^80 Grant Will
Aid Fire Prevention

WOLLASTON CENTER MAKEOVER - New ideas for Wol-
laston Center interest Jennifer Orniond, owner of Coffee Break
Cafes and Ward 5 Councillor Douglas Gutro. Both Gutro and
Ormond expressed enthusiasm about the new ideas for the
area provided existing businesses are protected and ground-
water problems are addressed.

An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure,
according to the old prov-
erb and that's the motto for
the Fire Department's Fire
Prevention Bureau which
recently received a $2,580
grant from FM Global .

"We're going to use it for
equipment for prevention,"
Captain Richard Bryan said,
noting that the bureau cov-
ers three vital firefighting
areas: Investigations, Code
Enforcement and Educa-
tion.

Bryan said the funds will
cover the costs of digital
and video cameras, one or
two laptop computers, and
software which can be used
for all three areas of the bu-
reau's work.

FM Global, one of the
largest property insurers of
business property, awards
prevention grants quarterly
to fire departments through
its highly competitive Fire
Prevention Grant Program.

Applicants must identify
the need for funding and tar-
get programs that will have
the greatest impact on pre-
venting, preparing for and
controlling fire in the com-
munity.

"At FM Global, we be-
lieve the majority of prop-
erty damage is preventable
- not inevitable - and we
are pleased to make funding
available to organizations,
like the Quincy Fire Depart-
ment, that share the same
philosophy," said Michael

Spaziani, manager of FM's
Fire Prevention Grant Pro-
gram. The company is based
in Johnston, RI.

"After all, it's much bet-
ter to prevent a disaster than
to recover from one," Spa-
ziani said.

Spaziani presented the
check to Mayor Thomas
Koch during a recent cer-
emony at North Quincy Fire
Station. Also, on hand at the
event were Acting Chief Jo-
seph Barron, Bryan and fire-
fighters.

New Vision For WoUaston Center

Cant 'd From Page 3
proved roadways, parking,
and signage.

Interest in a revival of the
old Wollaston Theater has
already recharged interest
in Wollaston Center, and the
team incorporated a planned
revival of "Old Wolly" into
their concept.

On June 16, the theater
and attached buildings were
purchased for $ 1 , 1 45 ,000 by
Wollaston Development As-
sociates, LLC, a partnership
based in White Plains, NY,
and tied to Quincy Center
developer Street Works.

The plan calls for a small
plaza at the theater as well
as streetscape improve-
ments through and includ-
ing Hancock Street in a sec-
ond phase.

While the team main's
focus was Wollaston Cen-
ter, they called the adjacent
residential area with land-
scaped homes and tree-lined
streets impressive and rec-
ommended a greenway bike
path from the center to East-
em Nazarene College cam-
pus and Wollaston Beach
and future improvements
north and south on Hancock
Street.

"We're really emphasiz-
ing maintaining the residen-
tial character," said intern
Abhishek Sharma while her
counterpart, Jill Allen cited
the homes and 'great trees'
in the surrounding area.

"It's a real good start. The
pedestrian traffic is the high-
est anywhere, " Ed Flavin of
Flavin and Flavin real estate
and insurance company said
of the concept. "Wollaston
right now is a prime target
for redevelopment."

"You've really stimu-
lated the beginning of a
dialogue," Ward 5 City
Councillor Douglas Gutro
said after the presentation,
adding "This won't sit on a
shelf "

However, Gutro ques-
tioned the teams' plans for
water collection, noting,
"What sits beneath us is a
1000-acre drainage area"
that seeps in the system and
pollutes Wollaston Beach.

"The T station actually
floods," Hellendrung said
after the meeting, noting
that at one time, "There
was a stream that ran under
there...."

The water that bubbles
into the T parking lot is from
remnants of that stream bur-
ied more than a century ago
and likely runs from Brook
Street across Newport Av-
enue.

After the meeting, Hel-
lendrung described the plans
for a water storage tank that
will filter and clean the wa-
ter before it is recharged
into the ground or released
into the storm water system
or used for aesthetic draws,
such as fountains and pools
in the center.

Gutro, also, said that the
heavy commuter traffic that
backs up on Newport Ave-
nue during commuter hours
must be considered in plan-
ning.

Harrington noted that
the concept offers additional
parking pedestrian friendly
areas in a center that is al-
ready solid with "responsi-
ble landowners and a steady
commercial" base.

"These are all the things
that Wollaston deserves,"
said Harrington who said
the ideas offered were just
the beginning of a public
process which will include
open discussion and revi-
sions.

Harrington pledged to
pursue the revival, "We're

not looking for a (plan) to
go on a shelf."

Harrington said there
will be an "engaged public
process as each one of these
layers move thorough pub-
lic participation."

Once the plans are re-
viewed and revised after
public comments, Har-
rington expects requests
for zoning changes, a 43-D
designation and applications
for grants through state and
federal programs, as well as
aggressive online market-
ing.

It's important to rein-
vigorate the area to "make
sure that it doesn't go into
a decline." Harrington said,
but added, "Economics will
drive a lot of it."

While the Wollaston plan
involves no land-takings,
road redesign or business
relocations, the proposal
would require zoning chang-
es and a 43D designation of
the area which, under Mas-
sachusetts law, allows the
development of incentives
to expedite local permitting
and zoning changes.

The design project, val-
ued at $50,000 to $60,000
is part of a partnership initi-
ated by the T to develop in-
come on T properties.

In addition to Sharma
and Allen, the team in-
cluded John Barker, Sam
Forgue, Yang Liu, Suzanne
Mathew, Tim Olson, and Yi-
tian Wang.

Despite requests for a

Thomas Koch said he does
not plan to arrange public

"I'm not so sure weTl

Koch said when the discuss-

25th Annual Event Brings Out Many Special People

Houghs Neck Blood Drive Remembers Chris, Trudy Peter

ByJOEREARDON

Charlie Peter was busy
working at the front table
as he has for so many years,
hailing out surveys for
Wo» donors to fill out and
thanking them for contribut-
ing on a rainy Tuesday after-
noon.

The 25th annual Houghs
Neck Community Coun-
cil Blood Drive In Loving
Memory of Chris & Trudy
Peter was barely 15 min-
utes old and already a line
was beginning to form at the
door of St. Thomas Aquinas
Hall.

Peter, a friendly man

with a firm handshake, was
more than a little opfimistic
that this year's drive would
again draw big numbers.

"We may get over 100 to-
day," said Peter, who point-
ed out that the 56 donors
who made appointments be-
forehand, far exceeded past
numbers from other years.

The blood drive, which
originally was organized
in memory of Peter's son,
Chris, who was killed by a
drunk driver in 1984 when
he was 22, also added an-
other person to memorialize.
Charlie's wife, Trudy Pe-
ter, a vital cog in the blood

drive, died of pneumonia in
2003.

It was Charlie who came
up with the idea for a blood
drive after Chris's death.
Trudy dove right into the
event by baking more than
800 cookies, brownies and
cheesecake treats for the
donors. Charlie said her en-
thusiasm and energy were
unmatched.

"Immediately my wife
took over and was the driv-
ing force," said Charlie.
"(When she died) we'd had
the drive 20 years and I was
going to let it drop. I was

At the mayor's urging,
the city's downtown rede-
velopment partners, Street-
Works LLC, purchased the
theater to save it from the
wrecking ball and allow the
City to mount an effort to
restore it into a community
theater.

A non-profit organiza-

tive Director Mark Carey,
who is helping to coordinate
the restoration effort, said
the response from Quincy
and beyond has been "over-
whelming." He said he has
received calls from founda-
tions, tax experts and other
agencies, all of who may
ultimately play a role in the
theater's revival.

"It has been non-stop
since the Mayor made the
announcement, and the piec-
es are already really coming

cited about it, too.'

The 1 ,200-seat theater
opened in 1926, but has
been shuttered since its last
movie played in 2003. Of-
ficials believe the building
will need substantial struc-
tural renovations to be vi-
able, with the ultimate goal
to open it as a full functional
theater that can host mov-
ies, community events and
even concerts, akin to the
Somerville Theater or the
Coolidge Comer Theater in
Brookline.

Last year, the Mayor's
Cup raised more than
$60,000 for several charities

GRADUATE GEMOLCXSIST

WORTH A TTIILLIANT

A trilliant-cut diamond is
cut in the form of a triangle, with
equal sides and 50 facets. When
used as a solitaire gemstone, a
trilliant diamond produces a fiery,
brilliant, and unique high-end
piece of jewelry that sits quite
apart from brilliant-cut diamonds
as a classic and elegant form of its
own. As such, trilliants are often
chosen for statement pieces of
jewelry. The trilliant's unique shape
also makes it a popular choice for
accent side stones on three-stone
rings. For instaiKe, two trilliants
are often positioned on either side
of a princess-cut stone to create a
remarkably brilliant blend. Because
the trilliant is cut from a flat rough
diamond, it projects a large look
that belies its actual weight.

Seeks Asian Supermarket On Hayward Street

C-Mart Files Appeal
In Land Court

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Attorneys for C Mart Su-
permarket, Inc., have filed
an appeal in Land Court
of the City Council's May
decision to reject C Mart's
apphcation for a Special
Permit allowing an Asian
supermarket on Hayward
Street, according to City So-
licitor James Timmins.

Timmins said the com-
plaint charges the applica-
tion was denied "as a result
of improper racial consider-
ations."

The case should progress
more swiftly in Land Court
than in superior court, ac-
cording to Timmins who
has already filed the city's

response to the Land Court
appeal .

During the council hear-
ings, attorney Christopher
Harrington represented C
Mart. In April, Harrington
charged that racial and
ethnic bias had negatively
impacted and delayed the
application process. Har-
rington could not be reached
for this report.

C Mart Supermarkets
sought a Special Permit to

spaces at the former Boston

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

• On July 15, 1888, the-
On July 26, 1775, the U.S.
postal system is established
by the Second Continental
Congress, with Benjamin
Franklin as its first post-
master general. Franklin put
in place the foundation for
many aspects of today's mail
system, including standard-
ized delivery costs based on
distance and weight.

• On July 24, 1901, au-
thor William Sydney Porter,
otherwise known as O. Hen-
ry, is released from prison
after serving three years in
jail for embezzlement from
a bank. While in prison he
began writing stories to sup-
port his young daughter.

• On July 22, 1923, John
Dillinger joins the Navy in
order to avoid charges of
auto theft, but deserts within
a few months. Dillinger's
reputation as America's
most notorious criminal was
forged in a single 12-month
period in the early 1930s,
during which he robbed
more banks than Jesse James
did in 15 years.

•On July 21, 1955, Pres-
ident Dwight D. Eisenhower
presents his "Open Skies"
plan, which called for the
United States and the Soviet
Union to exchange maps in-
dicating the exact location
of every military installa-

tion in their respective na-
tions. The Russians rejected
the plan. Months later, the
Eisenhower administration
approved the use of high-al-
titude spy planes to conduct

The Manet Community
Healtli Center, Inc. was re-
cently awarded through the
American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act $719,140
from the US Dept. Health
and Human Services, Capi-
tal Improvement Program.

Henry Tuttle, Manet's
chief executive officer, said,
"On behalf of Manet, our
appreciation to Cong. Wil-
liam Delahunt for his stead-
fast support and leadership
in Washington to help pass

the American recovery and
Reinvestment Act which in-
cludes unprecedented sup-
port for community health

in North Quincy, including a
sprinkler system, fire alarm
and security systems; an en-
ergy efficient HVAC unit,
and five new patient exam
rooms with nursing stations
and patient toilet.

Trevor McCarthy of Quincy is a typical teen-ager.
He likes sports, music and wears a baseball cap over
brown, curly hair.

But the 14-year-old son of Dan and Ami McCarthy of
Penn's Hill recently had quite an adventure. An experience,
it tums out, that he'll remember for the rest of his life.

Trevor and another Quincy teen, 15-year-old Tom Lester,
were among a group of nine Catholic Memorial High School
students who traveled to Lima, Peru, as part of the Blessed
Edmund Rice Solidarity Initiative annual mission trip. The
BERSI is a unique learning experience that brings together
the structure of a rigorous classroom environment with the
richness of personal academic encounters in diverse envi-
ronments. Besides Peru, students can select El Salvador,
South Korea, New York and Chicago.

The program is billed as voyages which "provide ev-
eryone involved with extraordinarily powerful, potentially
transformative experiences that are both intellectually and
spiritually challenging."

Trevor is certainly one student who can attest to that. It
was an eye-opening and heart-warming experience.

Over the course of eight days, the students built two
homes for needy families in a destitute part of the city, spent
time teaching English to students, brought much-needed
school supplies to the school , brought medical supplies and
worked for a day in a medical/orphanage facility.

They also did some sight-seeing to Inca ruins, a local
newspaper and the U.S. Embassy.

Trevor decided to raise the necessary $2,000 to take the
trip because some of his classmates were going and he fig-
ured it would be fun. But more so he wanted to lend a help-
ing hand to those less fortunate.

"It was really great to help those people down there," he
says modestly.

One of the highlights of the trip was building the two
homes for needy families.

"We tore down the houses with a pick ax and sledge ham-
mers and ripped apart the four walls. There was no place for
the wood to go and then we just lit them on fire right on the
dirt floors," Trevor recalled.

"After that we helped shovel (the wood and ashes) out
and then nailed together portions of the new house which
was pre-fabricated. We also gave the families a hand re-
building living rooms and also gave them beds and an oven
to cook on."

Trevor and the other classmates also visited one of the
local schools.

"They have a student council and we did a question and
answer period with them. They taught Spanish to us while
we taught English to them. A lot of the kids who went speak
Latin so I had to translate for almost all of them because I
take Spanish in school. It was kind of easy, kind of hard be-
cause they talk so fast. We taught a lot of them English."

They also had an opportunity to spend time at the offices
of Lima's daily newspaper, La Republica.

"We got a tour and we saw how they take pictures and
put them in the newspaper. We actually got to see the next
day's newspaper that was completely published and ready
to be sent out. We also had a chance to meet some of the
editors."

The classmates and two chaperones stayed in a hotel that
would not be confused with a 5-star accommodation in the
States.

"It was nice but like a motel. It was okay," Trevor said,
thinking back to his home-away- from-home for those eight
days. "The showers didn't have curtains and you couldn't
let the water get in your mouth (for sanitary reasons). You
couldn't even use the water to brush your teeth. You have
use bottled water."

One thing Trevor missed being away from home was
clean air.

"It's a desert climate and you need to put sunblock on
quite frequently," he explained. "But after a while the sun-
block starts turning black and gray from the pollution. That
was really bad."

Asked what he found most rewarding about his experi-
ence, Trevor didn't hesitate.

"The look on the mother's face after we built her house.
They have five kids and we built them a two-room house.
Just the look on her face after she saw that house - she was
in shock. She kept giving us hugs; she didn't want us to
leave.

"It was about 10 at night and we couldn't see a thing and

we still had to put a roof on. They didn't give us enough
tin to finish the roof but she was still jumping for joy that
she even had a nice house for her family. All her kids were
under 10 years old and she was just so happy. It made all of
us feel good."

Of course boys being boys they managed to find some
fun downtime, too.

"We went to some fountains that people can go swim-
ming in. That was really fun for us."

They also played their Peruvian counterparts in basket-
ball.

"I don't think you can say we even put up a fight. They
beat us pretty bad. There were 1,000 kids all around the
court watching the game and when they had the ball, they
were cheering like crazy. But when we got the ball , we felt
like the Yankees in Fenway Park. The place just went silent.
It was fim though."

Trevor, who tums 15 in September when he begins his
sophomore year in the fall, is already planning a return trip.

"I'm definitely going back. A few of us are planning to
go back. It was a blast."

To fund this year's trip and purchase supplies, the boys
were asked to raise funds from family, friends and others.
Trevor received funds from both family and friends, but
also from the Elks and the McDonough Foundation here in
Quincy.

For Trevor, it was a trip that put the important things in
life in perspective.

He and his classmates soon realized so many of the com-
mon amenities available here are not conmionplace in Peru.
Things like clean air, water, modern health care and electric-
ity.^

"I came back and I appreciate so much more of what I
have here. I have a TV and a swimming pool. They don't
even have hospitals down there. There are so many things
that the public has here but they don't," Trevor notes.

The teen's experience has also left a lasting impression
with their proud parents.

"Ami and I are very proud of Trevor and the other boys
who made the trip," said his father, Dan. "They sign up
thinking it's an adventure which it is but then they realize
how much work they actually had to do.

"We actually joked with the boys because they were
thinking about bringing an X-Box with them to give to the
kids in Lima. And I said 'Well, wait until you get there and
then you can decide if you should bring an X-Box or not.'
There's not even running water or electricity there."

"When you see them at the airport and how much fiin
they had and they are obviously thrilled to be home," Dan
adds. "They were telling stories about their adventure but
Trevor and Tonuny both said the same thing: 'I can't wait
to go back.'"

While Trevor has the option of choosing a different expe-
rience next year, his mind is already made up.

"I want to go back to Peru. I promised one of the kids I
met down there that I would see him again next year. We
made a lot of friends down there."

Trevor attended St. Ann's School in Wollaston before
enrolling at CM. Last year he played freshman football as a
wide receiver and comerback and hockey for the Knights. A
goalie, he hopes to suit up for the UNH Wildcats someday.
He's also played baseball for Quincy Youth.

His good friend Tommy Lester played freshman hockey
with Trevor as well as freshman lacrosse for CM.

Trevor says this is one experience he will never forget.

And he has this message for any students who have the
opportunity to participate in the program: 'Take it. Defi-
nitely."

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS IS A 1948 postcard reproduction of the Wollaston
Theatre on Beale Street in Wollaston Center. Built in
1926, it opened as a vaudeville and silent-picture theater
named in New Wollaston. The original Wollaston The-
atre had operated on a small stage in the old Masonic
Temple building to the right. About 1930 the new theater
with 1,259 seats was upgraded to show talking movies.
A few years after this picture was taken the vertical
marquee shown here was replaced with the angular one
there today. The featured movie on the marquee - Back
to Bataan, starred John Wayne and Anthony Quinn in
a 1945 hie about American-led guerillas in The Philip-

pines after General MacArthur's withdrawal in 1942.
The "Wolly," as it was affectionately known to genera-
tions of Quincy moviegoers, was the last neighborhood
theater in Quincy when it closed in 2003 for repairs. Its
recent sale to the developers interested in downtown
Quincy and the formation of the Wollaston Theater
Foundation raises hope that this theater once again
can become an entertainment and cultural center for
all Quincy residents. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail

Over 400 West Quincy Residents Oppose 'Cliff walk 2'

On Page 3 of the July 2
edition of Tfie Quincy Sun,
it was noted that more than
a dozen residents appeared
at the March 2 City Council
meeting to voice their op-
position to the proposed 96-
unit apartment building, we
reference as "Cliff walk 2."

We would like to point
out that on that night of the
meeting, the council cham-
bers was filled to capacity
with standing room only.

This clearly indicates
that significantly more than

a dozen residents appeared
at this meeting in opposition
to this project.

At the meeting we pre-
sented a petition to the City
Council signed by over 400
Quincy residents opposing
this project.

in his inaugural address.
Mayor Thomas Koch stated,
"1 hear your call about over-
development in our neigh-
borhoods and I hear your
concerns about traffic grid-
lock on our streets." Mayor
Koch also stated, "And 1 feel

strongly that we must act to
protect our neighborhoods-
the very neighborhoods that
give our city its unique char-
acter."

Gridlock? How about an
"F" rating (hazardous) on
the City's Traffic Engineer's
report regarding this proj-
ect?

Mr. Connolly, former
Ward 4 councillor and for-
mer Quincy resident, who
represents the developer,
must do his job and so shall
we! Protect our neighbor-

hood!

As Representatives of the
West Quincy Neighborhood

Says Selling Hancock Lot Not In City's Best Interest

(A copy of the following
letter sent to Quincy City
Councillors was submitted
by the writer for publication
in The Quincy Sun.)

I still feel that selling the
Hancock Lot is not in the
best interests of the city, this
city at heart. Street Works
most likely would be a good
neighbor, however that is
not the issue. The issue still
comes to money and who
stands to benefit the most.
StreetWorks is looking at
the Hancock Lot for its own
financial benefit, first and
foremost, and its potential
future investment funds.
The Hancock Lot belongs to
the city, not the mayor nor
the planning director nor the
city council.

It belongs to all the citi-
zens of Quincy. The Hancock
Lot is not excess, like and
old, unused, empty school

building. 1 see firsthand how
busy it always is, even on a
rainy Tuesday. Quincy will
definitely have future needs
for public space, be it a po-
lice or fire facility, a health
department that is acces-
sible, or something else, etc.
You all should be looking at
the Hancock Lot as the last
piece of city land and open
space in the downtown.

The figures you are given
for potential revenue come
from the developer only.
Once you sell or give away
a piece of land such as the
Hancock Lot, it is gone
forever. A long-term lease
makes more business sense
for the city. Every developer
over the years has tried to
get his or her hands on the
Hancock Lot because it is a
valuable piece of property.
StreetWorks also sees the
value as business people

who are thinking of Street-
Works bottom line first.
You, as elected officials, are
elected to serve the best in-
terests of the voters first and
foremost.

The JFK Health Center
on Hancock St. was sold be-
cause it had a leaky roof and
a bad heating system. It was
built with Federal funds, but
maintained poorly. A former
mayor built the Ross Ga-
rage that almost everyone is
afraid to use because funds
were available whether the
actual structure was a good
idea or not. Hasty decisions
turned out to be costly later
as we see from the sale of
the JFK Health Center.

Giving the developer ev-
erything he wants, like some
kind of love fest, and the de-
sire to improve a badly ne-
glected Downtown no mat-
ter what is asked of the City
Council, is not what city
councillors were elected to
do.

I urge you all to look
into the matter of disposing
or selling or whatever the
language is, regarding the
Hancock Lot and give the
voters your reasons so they
can vote as they see fit. I
urge the city council not to
vote to sell the Hancock Lot
when it comes before the
City Council later this year.

NORTH QUINCY HIGH School cafeteria was decorated in a tropical theme for the all-night,
substance free, after-prom party which followed the senior prom held May 8.

GAME AREA set up in the North Quincy High School gym was a popular spot at the school's
recent after-prom party.

North Quincy H.S. Senior Stayout After Prom Success

The North Quincy High
School Senior Stayout Com-
mittee recently held their
all-night, substance-free,
after-prom party at the high
school immediately follow-
ing the senior prom on May
8.

This was the 13"' year of
this special event and it was
exceptional. The commit-
tee was fortunate enough to
have so many businesses,
organizations, politicians
and parents volunteer so
much of their time and
make contributions to help
us make this year's event
the best ever!

The committee was faced
with the overwhelming task
of having to raise a great deal
of money in a short amount
of time when we lost all of
its decorations due to a burst
pipe in mid January at the
high school. Although Hon-
eywell was not responsible
for the burst pipes, they still
made a substantial contribu-
tion to the Senior Stayout
Committee to help assist in
the fundraising efforts.

Committee members
held a last minute fund-
raiser at the Furnace Brook
Golf Course in April that
was organized by one of
the NQHS senior parents,
Sandy Verhault. Her quick
action and hard work re-
ally paid off. The event was
pulled together in less than
two weeks time and all the
food, raffle items and DJ
were donated by parents and
businesses.

Approximately $3,500
was raised for the stayout
committee.

This year the committee
again transformed the high
school, however, members
gave each room its own
theme. This was all made
possible by the creative ge-
nius of our Decorating Co-
ordinator, Tracey Brooks.
She didn't see the loss of the
decorations as a nightmare
as the rest of us did; she saw
it as a "blank canvas" and a
way to start fresh with new
ideas and new themes. She
definitely outdid herself and
the school looked amazing!
The senior class and their
dates waJked into a lobby
that looked like something

out of Hollywood with the
red carpet treatment, VIP
entrances, balloon arches
and spotlights on them as
they entered the school.

The Atrium was turned
into a full casino with ev-
erything from Black Jack,
Texas Hold Em', Roulette
Wheel, Money Wheel and
Cash Cube. There was a
Movie Viewing area where
students could sit, relax and
eat ice cream while they
watched a slide show of
school memories put to mu-
sic by Class President, Lau-
ren Brooks.

The Cafeteria was turned
into a Hawaiian Paradise
with Tiki Huts, lanterns,
surf boards and grass skirts.
There was a wide variety of
food, drinks, desserts and
an ice cream sundae bar
to select from. There was
a game show mania setup
which works on the same
premise as Jeopardy, where
there were four student
contestants that answered
silly questions to music and
could win prizes.

The students could then
look to the backside of the
Cafeteria that had been made
to look like they could take
a stroll through the streets
of Paris where there was a
skyline outlined in white
lights. There were French
Cafe's and Raiders Cafe
where they found Caricature
Artists, Tattoo Artists, and
Tarot Card Readers.

The Hunt Street lobby
was decorated to look like
a Sock Hop with oversized
records, fountain drinks and
a black and white checkered
dance floor where the stu-
dents could dance to a DJ
under a fantastic light show.

The gym housed all the
large inflatable games, ob-
stacle courses, bungee run,
large inflatable Twister

stm

GoinM
Strong!

Game, Professional Race
Car Simulators, Air Hockey,
Dance Dance Revolution,
Guitar Hero, Wii, and Bas-
ketball.

The prizes this year were
by far some of the biggest
and best. The students
needed to be present in or-
der to win the big "end of
the night" prizes, this is
how we keep them there and
keep them safe. Some of
the big prizes ranged from
Red Sox tickets, GPS, dorm
refrigerators, digital cam-
eras, 26" flat screen TV, and
a Lap Top computer just to
name a few.

All in all, there was defi-
nitely something for every-
one and most of the students
who filled out the survey
stated that '"there was so
much to do, 1 couldn't get to
everything!"

The after prom party is
chaperoned.

The committee would
like to give a special thanks
to Principal Earl Metzler
for accojnmodating all of
their needs, everything from
fundraising efforts, school
access, and his unwavering
support all year long. The
office, kitchen and custodial
staff were absolutely fantas-
tic to work with.

Committee members also
gave special recognition to
Linda Cibotti, Deb Golden.
Gingi Fidalgo, and Mary
Jane Callahan. Also rec-
ognized and thanked were
Bob Burke, the Shop Room
teacher who has given us
a large storage room with
shelving to house our new
decorations located within
the shop room.

The committee thanks
everyone who participated
in one way or another to the
success of the After Prom
Event!

Long-Time Houghs Neck Activist

Jack Walsh Appointed
To MWRA Board

At the recommendation
of Mayor Thomas Koch,
long-time community activ-
ist Jack Walsh of Houghs
Neck has been appointed
as Quincy's representative
on the Massachusetts Water
Resources Authority Board
of Directors by Gov. Deval
Patrick.

"Jack has been one of
the strongest voices for the
Neck - and the city - over
the years on MWRA issues,
and 1 know he will contin-
ue that role on the MWRA
Board," Koch said. "It's safe
to say that without Jack and
others like him, we would
almost certainly not have
made the progress we have
made with the MWRA on

so many isues over the last
generation."

Walsh, a lifelong Houghs
Neck resident, played an
instrumental role in push-
ing for the clean-up of Nut
Island as a member of the
Nut Island Citizens Adviso-
ry Committee for 29 years.
The facility, once a poorly
operating treatment plant,
has since been refurbished
and is now home to a pas-
sive recreational park open
to the public.

Walsh succeeds long-
time MWRA Board Mem-
ber Jay MacRitchie, whose
term expired this year.

"Jay's dedication to the
MWRA Board and the work
he put into it over the years
set a great example, and he
is very much deserving of
our gratitude for those years
of service," Koch said.

Walsh, who was sworn in
by Gov. Patrick last week,
is a retired manufactur-
ing engineer who has been
involved with community
and environmental issues
in Houghs Neck for many
years.

"1 thank Mayor Koch
for his confidence in me
and Gov. Patrick for his ap-
pointment, and I am look-
ing forward to the challenge
and the opportunities that
this new role will present,"
Walsh said.

Mayor Holds Talks With Honeywell

Mayor Thomas Koch
said, "everything was put
on the table," during his first
meeting with high-ranking
officials from Honeywell
International amid the city
and state investigation of the
2007 energy deal that found
millions of dollars in inflated
bills, non-existent oversight
and a series of other issues.

In a statement released
Tuesday, the mayor said of
the meeting "We talked hon-
estly, frankly and laid every-
thing on the table

"We've been at this in-
vestigation since we took
office, and it was the right
time to sit down and be-
gin discussions. We remain
completely committed to
protecting taxpayers from
what I consider to be a total
financial disaster."

Koch and City Solici-
tor James Timmins met for
several hours with Honey-
well officials, including the

firm's North American gen-
eral manager, to discuss the
investigation. The parties
agreed to keep details of the
meeting confidential.

"There was a good back-
and-forth, and 1 left the
meeting feeling that there
is an earnest desire on both
sides to resolve this issue,"
said Timmins.

The administration began
its probe of the Honeywell
deal shortly after taking of-
fice when a bill for $2.8 mil-
lion appeared in the Mayor's
Office, Koch said.

The administration soon
appointed the job's first
clerk-of-the- works and ul-
timately found severe cases
of over-billing, incomplete
work, and other problems
with the $32 million pro-
gram that was supposed to
save money for taxpayers,
Koch said.

The city investigation
sparked an investigation

by the state Inspector Gen-
eral, which is ongoing to-
day. Last month. Inspector
General Gregory Sullivan
toured several city school
buildings, where boiler re-
placements remain a focal
point of the probe. In those
schools, boiler replacements
lacked pre-installation en-
gineenng and cost between
four-and-five-times industry
standards, officials said.

Among the other issues
at the heart of the City's
concerns are: a rcx)f replace-
ment at the Wollaston branch
of the Thomas Crane Public
Library in 2007 that cost the
city $224,000 when a con-
tractor estimated it would
cost $50,000; $77,000 for
the installation of doors at
the Quincy Police station,
and $200,000 for windows
at the North Quincy Fire
House that cost $70,000
more than a contractor esti-
mated.

Members of Quincy Ac-
cess TV received national
accolades for their produc-
tion work at the Alliance
for Community Media's
National Conference held
recently in Portland. OR.

Liz Clancy (QATV).
Joe Catalano (A.M. Quin-
cy), Elizabeth Campbell
(QATV's Executive Direc-
tor) and Grace Buscher
(QATV's Board of Direc-
tors) attended the confer-
ence.

QATV swept the first four
categories at the Hometown
Video Festival.

QATV's Mark Crosby's

with Ruth Jones and Com-
missioner Drew Scheele"
took first place in the public
service announcement cat-
egory.

Recreation Director and
Crosby both received first
place honors in the Govern-

mental Activities category
for their piece "Qumcy Rec-
reation Department Produc-
tion Workshop,"

QATV Staff Liz Clancy
and Jon Calin received first
place in the Cultural Per-
spective category for their
piece "This is Taiv\an""
which also picked up an
honorable mention in the
documentary category.

QATV topped off its ac-
colades with the success of
"Halloween Safety Tips w ith

QPD's Lt Dan .Minton.'
produced by Mark Crosby.

"Quincy Access Televi-
sion has also been proud
of the accomplishment of
all their members and staff
for the bright, innovative,
and informative programs
produced by and for the citi-
zens of Quincy." Campbell
said. "We are thrilled that
our members and staff are
receiving the national rec-
ognition their hard work and
creativit\ deserves ""

FIRE SAFETY

by Captain Tom Lyons

Fire Prevention Bureau
Quincy Fire Department

Synopsis Of Recent Fires

Here's a quick synop-
sis of some fatal fires fea-
tured in last month's NFPA
JOURNAL.

The cause of each and
every one has been previ-
ously featured in various ar-
ticles shared here with you.
Hilited here again, the con-
sequences should speak for
themselves, while the need
to be aware of potential
sources of ignition and risky
behavior should be noted
again as we learn from these
examples.

Two women in Nevada
died in an early morning
blaze. The investigation
determined the cause was
either due to a pinched elec-
tric cord igniting bedding, or
a cigarette igniting bedding.
To complicate the incident,
the electrical cord lead to an
oxygen concentrator.

A higher concentration
of oxygen within a room,
potentially saturating bed-
ding materials or other com-
bustibles, will accelerate an
ignition and intensify the
resulting fire.

So there are three issues
to note here. Beware of any
electrical extension cord that
is susceptible to mechanical
damage. In this incident, the
cord was severely pinched.

potentially damaging the
insulation, resulting in arc-
ing, which can ignite an ad-
jacent combustible such as
bedding. Cigarettes igniting
sofas and bedding are the
most common cause of fatal
residential fires, while add-
ing medical oxygen use to
cigarette use, an even dead-
lier behavioral combination
results.

In another fatal fire, a
57-year-old woman who
lived alone died when the
sleeve of her robe ignited
as she prepared dinner. She
later died from the result-
ing burns over 90% of her
body.

This is a very common
scenario and one frequently
mentioned here. Seniors are
particularly susceptible to
this cause of fire when loose
clothing is ignited. Many fa-
talities have resulted while
they are here for us to learn
from. Remember, loose
clothing and cooking don't
mix, and if you experience
a clothing fire. Stop, Drop
&R0II.

In the State of Washing-
ton, an 80-year-old woman
died when wind blew over
an unattended heat lamp.
She was using it to keep
several cats warm.

Whether it's a candle,
heat lamp or space heater,
none of these items should
be left unattended. Pets left
alone with a candle, heat
lamp or space heater is ask-
ing for trouble. None of
these three items should be
left unattended even when
pets are not present. Unat-
tended candle use is the
leading cause of candle fires
and as noted in a previous
article, the cause of a double
fatality in Boston. With all
the distractions present in
our daily lives, these items
if used and walked away
from, can too easily be for-
gotten. That oversight can
have damaging and destruc-
tive consequences.

We can learn from each
of these examples and mod-
ify any behavior we have in
common with them. 1 write
these articles where I be-
lieve it is our ability to learn
and adjust our behavior to
avoid similar results.

Through our own con-
scious effort, we can dis-
associate ourselves from
these potential and common
causes of fire, and save oth-
ers and ourselves the an-
guish of loss and destruc-
tion, which they so often
bring.

Thank you.

Quincy Police To Issue
'Slurpee' Tickets For Good Deeds

Local kids will be able to
cool off for a good cause as
the Operation Chill program
starts today (Thursday) at
the 7-Eleven store from
noon to 2 p.m., at 678 Ad-
ams St.

The event includes mem-
bers of the Quincy Police
Department distributing
Slurpee coupons and finger-
print kits as well as promot-
ing bicycle safety. Big Bite
hot dog coupons, soda and
other fresh foods will be
provided by 7-Eleven em-
ployees.

The Operation Chill
program, allows law en-
forcement officers to ticket

youngsters with Slurpee
coupons when caught in the
act of doing good "offenses"
which might include help-
ing another, deterring crime
or participating in a positive
activity in the community.

"The partnership between
the city and 7-Eleven is a
win-win situation for all,"
said Quincy Police Chief
Paul Keenan. "The kids not
only receive praise from an
officer, they also receive a
coupon for a free slurpee at
their local 7-Eleven."

The national program
is highly regarded by law
enforcement agencies and

kids, alike, according to
Robert Weston, 7-Eleven's
loss prevention specialist
for New England. "Police
officers have told us they
love having a positive rea-
son to approach kids and
thank them for being good
citizens," said Weston.

Nearly 10 million Op-
eration Chill coupons have
been distributed to hundreds
of law enforcement agen-
cies, nationally, since the
inception of the program.
Almost 800,000 Slurpee
coupons are expected to be
issued in 2009, mainly dur-
ing the summer and back-to-
school months.

Vve Enjoyed It But It's Time To Move On '

MacRitchie Leaves MWRA Board With Legacy Of Progress

By TOM HENSHAW

The man who was in
on the original action
that eventually became
the Massachusetts Water
Resources Administration
has cut his last connec-
tion with the MWRA after
20 years on the Board of
Directors.

Joseph "Jay" MacRitchie
attended his last board meet-
ing June 24, then turned the
|ob over to John "Jack"
Walsh, the Houghs Neck en-
vironincntalist, newly rec-
urninended for appointment

ation of the MWRA and one
of history's great environ-
mental projects --• the %1
billion cleanup of the harbor
and Qi^i'iic) Bay and the up-
grade of the water and sewer
systems in Greater Boston

His successor, Walsh, is
an engineer who retired three
years ago as a manufactur-
ing engineer from Instron
Corporation in Norwood,
manufacturers of materials
testing instruments.

A graduate of

Northeastern and Wentworth
Institute, Walsh has been
chair of the Nut Island
Citizens Committee since
1980 and was the commu-
nity representative on the
Boston Harbor Citizens
Advisory Committee from
1981-85.

MacRitchie himself was
named to the 1 1 -member
Board of Directors of the
MWRA in 1989 by Mayor
Frank McCauley and re-
tained in that post for the
next 20 years at the pleasure
of Mayors James Sheets,
William Phelan and Koch.

During .MaeKitchie's
tenure, the modernization ol
the MW RAs drmking water
system neared completion
with a state-of-the-art ozone
treatment plant, a 17-inile
aqueduct and covered stor-
age tanks throughout the
system.

One of the great local ac-
complishments of his time
on the Board was the trans-
formation of the once dirty,
smelly sewer treatment plant
on Nut Island into an odor-
less headworks surrounded
by an 11 -acre park.

Other key Board deci-
sions during MacRitchie's
time included replacement
of the dilapidated waste-

water pumping stations in
Merrymount and Squantum
and the deep rock tun-
nel from the Fore River
Shipyard to Nut Island.

The latest project on the
drawing board is a mas-
sive 10-year, $115 million
series of upgrades to the
southern water system that
supplies Quincy, including
two 10 million-gallon stor-
age tanks in the Blue Hill
Reservation.

On Monday, July 6 at approximately 1:30 p.m.. Offi-
cer John Leuchte was called to the Quincy Police Station
Lobby to interview a 47-year-
old female victim about her
missing car and a prescrip-
tion. She said that the incident
all started back on June 24'^
when she was taken by ambu-
lance to Quincy Medical Cen-
ter becau.se she was having
suicidal thoughts.

She stated that she was
admitted to Pembroke Hos-
pital and it was there that she
learned that a friend's daughter
visited her at the Quincy Med-
ical Center June 24"^, posing

as her niece, where she took custody of her belonging, her
clothes, wallet, and car keys. She stated the "niece" and
her mother (the friend) then went to Father Bill's (shel-
ter) and took her car without her permission. The victim
also learned that on June 25'\ her "friend" filled her pre-
scription for Morphine at the Rite Aid, using the victim's
license for identification. The victim learned all this and
more from talking to the "niece" on the phone.

The "niece" said that she also crashed the victim's car
and it was parked at the "niece's" house. She also said
that her boyfriend took the Morphine and sold it for $900.
The victim said that she wanted to report her car sto-
len because she did not know were it was and the "niece"
refused to return it.

Officer Leuchte attempted to gather more information
about the three suspects, but the victim was unable to pro-
vide last names. The officer then spoke with the Rite Aid
pharmacist, who confirmed the victim's prescripfion was
filled on June 25'\ with her license used for idennfication
and the transaction was recorded on the store camera sys-
tem. The vicfim filed a stolen motor vehicle form and this
was entered into the state system.

The officer told the victim she needed to get the last
names of the suspects, who she knew through Father
Bill's and she said that she would. The officer also called
the "niece" and told her to call and return the car, but she
did not call back.

At 2:30 p.m.. Officer Leuchte drove over to Father
Bill's to see if the vehicle was there. As he drove up the
street, he observed the victim standing outside her car, as
two females and a male exited the vehicle. The officer ap-
proached them and called out to communications that he
was out with the Stolen Vehicle and several parties. Offi-
cers' William Lanergan and Tom Gaeta arrived moments
later and the suspects were seated on the curb.

The victim said that this was her car. The young fe-
male turned out to be the "niece", while the older woman
was the "friend" and the male was the suspect who sold
the Morphine.

As warrants and criminal record checks were being
conducted. Officer Leuchte inquired how they ended up
with the victim's car. The "niece" said that she and her
mother visited the vicfim at the hospital and she told them
to take her vehicle while she was in the hospital. The
"niece" stated the victim gave her the keys along with her
wallet and clothes to hold. Her friend added that the vic-
tim gave her a prescription for Morphine and told her to
sell it for her while she was in the hospital.

She stated that she went to Rite Aid and filled the pre-
scription using the victim's license and her own to pick it
up. She then said that the male suspect sold the Mor-
phine. The male suspect denied any knowledge of the
Morphine. Officer Gaeta learned that there were warrants
on the "niece" and the male suspect, but not the "friend."
Officer Leuchte then placed all three suspects under
arrest. The "niece," a 25 year-old Quincy resident, was
charged with receiving a stolen motor vehicle and two
warrants. The victim's "friend," a 54 year-old Quincy
resident, was charged with receiving a stolen motor ve-
hicle and uttering. The male suspect, a 31 year-old Nor-
wood resident, was charged with receiving a stolen motor
vehicle and two warrants."

* * * On The Campaign Trail - City Election 2009 * * *

Michael Covais Announces
Candidacy For School Committee

With the campaign season underway for this fall's city election. The Quincy Sun
will publish, from time to time and when space is available, press releases submit-
ted from candidates and their committees.

The Sun wants its readers to know the releases are not written by Quincy Sun
staff. The Sun retains the right to edit releases for space purposes.

Phelan: 'Despite Largest Tax Increase In

City History, Quincy's Budget Less

Transparent Than Other Mass Cities'

Not only are Quincy tax-
payers paying a lot more
in increased taxes than
residents of other cities and
states, they are getting a
lot less information about
where that money goes,
mayoral candidate William
Phelan said in a statement
released July 17.

Phelan pointed out that
Mayor Tom Koch, in his
2007 campaign, promised a
"more open, responsive and
efficient" government. "De-
spite that promise, and de-
spite the largest tax increase
in city history, the budget
Mayor Koch submitted for
the FY 10 fiscal year begin-

ning July 1 was only 83 pag-
es long," Phelan said.

"Other cities in Massa-
chusetts provide their citi-
zens a great deal more in-
formation about how their
taxes are being spent," Phel-
an said.

"For example, the City of
Springfield had a budget for
this year that was 544 pages
long, the City of New Bed-
ford had a budget that was
205 pages long, and the City
of Cambridge produced a
budget with 616 pages of in-
formation," Phelan said.

"Taxes went way up, and
the transparency of spend-
ing went way down," said

the former mayor, who is
challenging Koch in this
fall's city election.

"It's bad enough that
taxpayers are getting hit by
the biggest tax increase of
any city in the state, but the
Mayor isn't even telling us
where our money is going.
When 1 was Mayor," Phelan
continued, "we always sub-
mitted detailed budgets that
provided hundreds of pages
of information about specif-*
ic programs.

"Hard-pressed Quincy
taxpayers have every right
to wonder where their tax
dollars are going, and why
this administration isn't
more open," Phelan added.

Michael A Covais recent-
ly launched his candidacy for
a seat on the Quincy School
Committee at a recent cam-
paign kick-off gathering.

"It is my belief that noth-
ing is more important in our
free society than the educa-
tion of the next generation of
Americans," Covias said in
announcing his campaign.

"Public education is the
key to maintaining the great
quality of life that we en-
joy here in Quincy," Covais
continued. "Without rock
solid schools, young fami-
lies will move out of Quincy
and change the character of
our great city.

"I am a product of public
schools, and my wife Lisa
and I have a son, Dio, who
is about to enter the 12""
grade at North Quincy High
School. 1 know how impor-
tant public education is, and
1 am firmly committed to it.
1 believe that education is

more than learning how to
take a standardized test."

5 Tips To Keep Your Home Safe In An Emergency

(ARA) - Over the years,
Americans have endured
many different types of
tragedies and crises -- from
Hurricane Katrina and Sept.
1 1 to countless tornadoes,
earthquakes and other natu-
ral disasters. During these
hardships, we have learned
to expect the unexpected and
to be ready for anything.

With this in mind, the
U.S. Department of Home-
land Security has declared
September National Pre-
paredness Month in an
effort to educate people
about natural and national
disaster preparedness and
to motivate families to plan
ahead. In support of this
year's "Ready Campaign,"

Stripping Old

Finish From

Hardwood Floor

Q:L

Vd like to refin-
ish the hardwood
floor lii our upstairs com-
mon area. Vm pretty sure
it was installed when the
house was built. The floor
has some sort of shiny fin-
ish (or it used to be shiny),
though Vm not sure what it
is. Will this matter when I
strip this finish off? Do you
have any tips to speed the
process? - Mel in KnoxviUe,
Tenn.

A^ Knowing what type
• of finish is on the
floor will help you choose the
right type of stripper, if you
intend to use a chemical strip-
per rather than sand the finish
off.

Head up to the area with a
few cotton swabs, some dena-
tured alcohol and a bit of lac-
quer thinner. To test the finish,
rub a cotton bail soaked with
the alcohol on a small area. If
the finish starts to come off,
then it's probably shellac. If it
doesn't come off, soak a dif-
ferent cotton ball with lacquer
thinner and rub a different
area. If the finish comes off
here, you're dealing with a
lacquer finish. If neither sol-
vent brings up the finish, it's
probably polyurethane var-
nish.

This is important because
is when you go to the home-
improvement store to buy a

chemical stripper, you're go-
ing to need to choose the one
that works best with the finish
on your floor. You'll also need
a rinsing solvent that's com-
patible with the type of strip-
per you choose, to neutralize
the chemical afterward.

To work with chemical
stripper, make sure the area
is well -ventilated and wear a
respirator mask, gloves and
goggles. Apply the stripper
with a paintbmsh, covering
only a small area at a time.
Let the stripper work for the
amount of time recommended
on the bottle, then use a nylon
scraper to scrape away the old
finish. Scrape in line with the
wood grain.

Once the entire floor is
stripped, dip an abrasive pad
into the rinsing solvent and
scrub the floor. Don't use wa-
ter to rinse the floor. Remove
residual sludge, particularly
between the floorboards (use
a small putty knife for this).

HOME TIP: To remove
dark stains from hardwood,
try bleaching the area with
a solution of oxalic acid and
water. Follow up with white
vinegar, then rinse with water.
Use wood restorer to match
the area to the rest of the
floor.

First Alert and The Lehigh
Group, makers of home
safety and security prod-
ucts, offer some simple tips
for preparing your home and
family to face unexpected
emergencies.

"You never know when
disastei may strike, so hav-
ing a safety plan in place is
the best way to prepare your
family to face crises with
confidence," says Deborah
Hanson, director of external
affairs for First Alert and
The Lehigh Group. "A few
minutes of planning today
can save valuable time and
the lives of loved ones down
the road."

1. Create a prepared-
ness kit

When preparing for an
emergency or potential di-
saster, basic survival items
like fresh water and non-
perishable foods are often
at the top of the list. Just
as important are necessi-
ties like blankets, a first aid
kit, transistor radio, flash-
lights, batteries, cell phone
with charger, prescription
medications, cash or trav-
eler's checks and even a can

opener.

Extra items such as tools,
matches and a compact,
easy-to-use fire extinguisher
should also be included in
your safety kit. The new
Tundra fire extinguishing
spray offers a familiar aero-
sol design and operation
with no pin to pull or lever
to squeeze - making it less
intimidating to operate than
a standard fire extinguisher.
These items should be kept
in a convenient, secure and
dry location in the basement
or another area of the home
with no outside windows.

2. Set alarms

Carbon monoxide (CO)
poisoning incidents esca-
late during hurricane sea-
son and heavy wind storms
due to more frequent power
outages when homeowners
turn to fuel -burning genera-
tors or other fuel sources to
cook, light, cool or heat their
homes. To protect your fam-
ily from this "silent killer,"
CO alarms should be in-
stalled throughout the home,
including one on each level
and outside every sleeping
area.

3. Store valuables in a
"safe" place

Even if you live in the
safest town in America, hav-
ing a safe at home can prove
a wise investment when it
comes to natural disasters.
Through fire or flood, a safe
can help protect important
documents, family photos
and sentimental keepsakes,
as well as jewelry and other
valuables. For the ultimate
protection, look for a safe
that is both fire resistant and
waterproof, not just water
resistant. Be sure to keep
the combination in a secure
place and share the location
only with trusted family
members and friends. Some
safes offer fingerprint tech-
nology that recognize up to
10 different prints - allow-
ing for quick and easy ac-
cess during an emergency.

4. Keep security front
and center

Doors and windows are
particularly vulnerable spots
in a home during a major
storm or national disaster.
Proper storm doors can pro-
tect exposed areas of the
home from wind, precipita-

tion and debris. For homes
and businesses, vertical
window guards like those
offered by Leslie Locke
help to keep flying debris
from breaking glass and ex-
posing a home's interior to
outside elements. Security
screen doors and window
guards also can help keep
homes safe from unwanted
intrusion.

5. Secure outdoor items

High winds can take a toll
on the outside of a home. At
the first sign of danger, se-
cure outdoor items using
rope or other cordage prod-
ucts to tie down outdoor
furniture, plants, decorative
items and more. A new rope
innovation called Cordzilla
offers bungee-style stretch
with vinyl-coated hooks that
help securely tie down items
without scratching their sur-
faces.

Blending Historic Charm With Modern Convenience At Home

(ARA) - Easily distin-
guishable from their con-
temporary counterparts,
most older homes hold a
notable grace and prov-
enance. A look so inspiring
that many of today's home
owners are attempting to
capture this essence of the
Old World when building
new or remodeling their
current home. The "latest
revivals" trend seamlessly
blends history with modem
conveniences.

"Many newer homes are
infused with architectural
details from the past. Good
traditional design is about
creating a home with heri-
tage and character while in-
corporating elements that
have proven to stand the
test of time," says Nancy
E. Berry of New Old House
magazine.

One way to capture the
look of classic architecture
is to work with ceramic tile
which offers supreme du-
rability, sustainability and
timeless beauty. Versatility

in design, size, format and
texture also allows it to be
applied in some imexpected
ways. Advanced technology
allows for replicate finishes
virtually indistinguishable
from the real thing. You can
achieve the look of wall-
paper, wainscoting, wood,
stone and textiles but with
the durability and property
advantages of tile. Both
flooring and wall tiles do
not show wear and do not
require heavy cleaning.

Once installed, ceramic
tile will not require costly
replacement and repair. It
offers supreme durability,
directly related to the im-
pervious glazed surface,
and a longer lifespan than
most floor and wall cover-
ings. Unlike wood that rots
and needs refinishing, or
carpeting that loses its pile
and shows wear, ceramic
tile lasts up to four times
longer.

Additionally, ceramic tile
is chemically inert, so there
is no mold or mildew build

up or chance of damage
from outside sources. It's
frost-resistant and fire-resis-
tant as it will not bum, give
off smoke or toxic fumes.

You can achieve a clas-
sic style with easy mainte-
nance and sustainable char-
acteristics. Warm water and
neutral cleaners are the only
cleaning products required.
Ceramic tile does not con-
tribute to the level of toxic
cleaning products being
flushed into our ecosystem
by materials that recom-
mend the use of chemicals,
soaps, shampoos, waxes,
strippers, and solvents.

For example, Tile of
Spain-branded manufactur-
ers produce ceramic tile that
can easily pass for marble
but is more cost effective,
resilient and easier to main-
tain. Peronda reinvents mar-
ble with the Clays and Sym-
phony Collections. Qays
raises a solid concept where
neutral colors define bases.
Symphony shows the beau-
ty of stones such as Calacata

marble, Daino travertine,
Onice Ambar and Marquina
to inspire a sophisticated
environment with classic
Greco-Roman style.

Terra cotta is a natural
choice for spaces attempt-
ing to reflect bygone eras.
This material is also the cor-
nerstone of production for
Ceramica Decorativa which
recently introduced Ter-
racota Colors ~ chocolate-
colored floor tile ~ and the *
Tao series which features
long ribs of terra cotta ar-
ranged in different patterns
in a 10-inch by 10-inch for-
mat. Natucer's new Tierras
Ibericas collection offers
three series showcasing the
charm of terra cotta.

Adex has nine differ-
ent series in a wide range
of styles including Antigua,
Barroca and Artisan. Some
recover the splendor of Va-
lencian tiles and some reflect
ceramic tradition, carefully
adapted and redesigned for
contemporary decorations.

event at the Quincv Recre-
ation Departments quali-
fier; he followed that up b\
winning the Massachusetts
S(X)-metcr state champion-
ship, which was held June 29
in Bolton. Mullaneys win-
ning time was 2: 36. XI After
claiming the MA state title,
Mullaney was forced to wait
until all the other SfK)-metcr
state champions from Re-
gion 6. which includes par-
ticipants from Maine, Neu
Hampshire. Vermont. Rhode
Island and two provinces of
Canada, were decided. His
time held up as the best in
Region 6 and he got the call
that he would be the one rep-
resenting the region in the
11-12-year old 8{X)-meter
national championships.

"I started off winning the
Quincy meet and then I went
on and won the 8(K)-meter
event at the state finals,""
said Mullaney last week.
"Once I won the states. I had
to wait for the other results
and times from Region 6 to
come in. My time held up
The other winners from this
region ran around the 2.3S
and 2:40 mark. My fam-
ily said not to get my hopes
up because we \vere one of
the first states to finish, but
I kept checking the results
and 1 finally got the call that
1 would be representing Re-
gion 6 and nov\ I get to run
in the nationals.""

Mullaney. a humble
youngster, has been run-
ning since an early age and
has been a member of the
Quinc) Track Club since
age eight. He is one of four
siblings who run daily and
running is a major part o\ his
life.

the Quincy Track Club since
I was eight and my whole
family likes to run. 1 ha\e a
brother. Jake, who is 16 and
twin sisters. Danielle and
Brianna, who are 14 So if I
do not have track practice my
famil> runs on the beach or
around the city. 1 like to run
with other people because
it helps you get better and
train harder. The QTC helps
me train during the summer
and gets me ready for the fall
when 1 run cross country.'"

Mullaney. who prefers
running longer distances,
expects the national finals
to be a challenge, but he is
ready to give it his best and
represent Quincy as well as

he can.

"it kK)ks like at the na-

Team Was Scheduled to Play Wednesday Afternoon

Morrisette Making Noise
In AL South Sectionals

By SEAN BRENNAN

Morrisette Post 294, de-
spite a 7-3 loss to Foxboro
Post 93 on Monday eve-
ning, was still alive, as of
The Quincy Sun press dead-
line Tuesday, in the Ameri-
can Legion South Sectional
playoffs. Morrisette had ad-
vanced to this round follow-
ing a two games-to-one first
round series victory over
Norwood Legion.

The team opened the
South Sectionals, a three-
bracket, 12-team, double-
elimination playoff, with
a come-from-behind, 10-9
win over New Bedford Le-
gion on Sunday night at
Paul Walsh Field at New
Bedford High School.

Morrisette was sched-
uled, weather permitting,
to play New Bedford on
Wednesday afternoon in a
win-or-go-home game. The
winner of this game would
then have to defeat Foxboro
Legion twice to advance to
the American Legion Mas-
sachusetts state finals.

Morrisette, which was
one of the lowest seeds in
the South Sectional bracket,
shocked top-seeded New
Bedford on Sunday, com-
ing from three runs down in
the top of the ninth inning to
earn the 10-9 win.

Starting pitcher Kevin
Magoon (four plus innings,
7 BB, 3 Ks, three earned
runs) spotted New Bedford
an early 4-0 lead, but Mor-
risette's offense scored five
runs in the top of the fourth
inning to grab a 5-4 lead.
Joe Vialpando started the
rally with a single; Ricky
Salvucci singled; Matt
Rodriquez singled; John
Ainsley singled, driving in
Vialpando; Devin Hudson
doubled home both Salvuc-
ci and Rodriquez; Greg Nel-
son singled home Hudson
and Daimy Russell plated
the final run with a fielder's
choice groundout.

New Bedford, the host
team, rallied back to take

the 9-6 lead and was three
outs away from putting
Morrisette in the loser's
bracket, but this Morrisette
team is resilient.

Nelson started the ninth
with a single and after Rus-
sell struck out, a pitch hit
Alex Tragellis. Vialpando
(4-for-5) singled; Salvucci
drove in Nelson with a
sacrifice fly (9-7 score);
Rodriquez singled home
Tragellis (9-8 score); Ain-
sley walked and then Ryan
Louis came up with the big-
gest hit of the season thus
far. On a 3-2 count, Louis
drove a sharp base hit into
right field, scoring both Ro-
driquez and Ainsley, with
the latter being the game-
winning run.

Relief pitcher Ben Leahy
(two innings, 2 Ks, W) set
down New Bedford 1-2-3 to
close out the upset win.

"This team just does not
quit," said Morrisette 's Bill
Marchand. "Our confidence
is way up and we have been
beating the better teams.
New Bedford thought the
game was over before the
ninth inning, but we battled
back and grabbed the win.
We have had timely hitting
and great defensive play
throughout the playoffs and
this was a big win for us.
They are starting to think
that they can win against
anyone."

Salvucci (3-for-4), Ro-
driquez (2-for-5), Louis
(l-for-4, RBI) and Hudson
(two RBI) were the hitting
stars for Morrisette against
New Bedford. Relief pitcher
Joe Edgerly (three innings,
K) pitched well out of the
bullpen.

The team advanced to the
second round by upsetting
the higher seeded Norwood
Legion in the opening round
of the American Legion Dis-
trict 6 East- West playoffs.
Morrisette, which was the
fourth seed out of District 6
East, opened the first-round
at Norwood, which was the

District 6 West number two
seed.

In Game One, Morrisette
lost 5-4 despite having the
bases loaded in the seventh
and final inning. Edgerly
kept his team in contention
with two scoreless innings
of relief.

"We kind of had the
feeling that even after we
lost, we had Norwood on
the ropes," said Marchand.
"In the seventh we loaded
the bases, but could not get
across that last run, but the
team and the coaching staff
felt confident that we could
come back and win the next
two games."

In Game Two, Mor-
risette's Alex Tragellis (7
innings, BB, 7 Ks, W) was
masterful on the mound.
He threw a complete game
shutout as Morrisette won
3-0.

"Alex was so good in
this game. He did exactly
what we needed from him
and pitched us into the third
and final game," added
Marchand.

In Game Three, Mor-
risette went up 3-0 after 2
Vi innings only to see Nor-
wood score five runs in the
bottom of the third to take a
5-3 lead, but a six-run fourth
inning propelled the team to
victory.

Ryan Louis started the
rally with a single; Hudson
hit a two-run home run to
tie the score at 5-5; Nelson
reached on an error; Rus-
sell made the first out; Co-
lin Ryan reached on an er-
ror; Rodriquez was hit by a
pitch; Salvucci reached on
an error scoring Nelson and
Vialpando drove in two runs
with a single.

Morrisette would tack on
five more runs in the sixth
and ran away with the de-
ciding game and the series
with a 15-5 victory.

Ricky Salvucci (2 2/3 in-
nings, 3 Ks, W) picked up
the win in relief.

MEMBERS OF THE QUINCY YOUTH BASEBALL 14-under all-star baseball team celebrate
after winning the 14-Under Junior League Championship in District 8 of the MA "Little League"
Tournament. Quincy will now compete in the Section 2 of the MA state playoffs.

Defeat Norwell 9-4 to Take Title

QYB's 14-Under Team Wins
District 8 Championship

Quincy Youth Baseball's
14-under all-star baseball
team swept through the Dis-
trict 8 playoffs, finishing
with a 4-0 record, and win-
ning the 14-Under Junior
League championship game,
9-4, over Norwell. The team,
as a result of their dominance
in this round, now moves
on to Section 2 of the MA
State Playoffs where they
will be competing against
all-star teams from Auburn,
East Bridgewater, Gardner,
Seekonk and Southampton.

In the title game against
Norwell , Quincy jumped out
to a first inning lead when a
pitch hit Pat Verhault. Pinch
runner Andrew Currie stole
second and scored on a line
drive double by Mike Gal-
lotto. Norwell came back to
tie the game in the home half
of the first, but Quincy an-
swered with two runs in the
top of the second. Tom Mc-
Donald and Matt Davis led
off with back-to-back singles
and both moved into scoring
position on a wild pitch. An-
drew Jaehnig scored McDon-
ald with a sacrifice fly and
Davis scored on wild pitch.

Norwell scored a lone mn
in the bottom of the frame to
cut the Quincy lead to 3-2,
but again, Quincy responded.
Verhault started the third
inning with a single, stole
second and third; Galloto
walked; Currie pinch ran and

stole second and Josh Hay-
ward drove in Verhault with
a sacrifice fly.

After Norwell scored to
cut the Quincy lead to 5-4,
pitching took over and kept
things quiet through the
fourth, fifth and sixth in-
nings.

During the bottom of the
sixth Quincy dodged a bullet
as Norwell got the first two
runners on base with nobody
out. The next batter lined to
Davis at second base, and
he flipped the ball to Ver-
hault at shortstop for a mo-
mentum killing double play.
That defensive play stopped
a Norwell rally and ignited
Quincy 's offense. The team
added four insurance runs in
the top of the seventh to put
the game away.

The seventh irming rally
started with a walk to Currie;
Rudy Tryon scored him with
a double; David Joyce bunt-
ed Tryon over to third base;
Galloto drove in Tryon with
a double and he scored on a
suicide squeeze bunt by Hay-
ward. McDonald drove in the
final Quincy mn with a dou-
ble off the left field fence.

Quincy 's Dan Cobban
(two mns, two walks, three
strikeouts) shutdown Nor-
well 1-2-3 in the bottom of
the seventh to help set off a
wild celebration. Cobban re-
tired 1 1 of the last 13 Norwell
batters to earn his second vic-

tory of the toumament.

Quincy earned the right to
play for the championship by
defeating Cohasset 8-5 in the
semifinals. Tom McDonald
earned his second victory of
the toumey despite not hav-
ing his "best stuff." Hayward
earned the save in relief.

Quincy scored one run in
the first and second innings
but trailed 4-2 heading into
the fifth inning. Verhault
(three hits, three SBs) started
the fifth inning rally with a
single and stole second; Gal-
loto scored him with a RBI
single and Currie pinch ran
for him and came around to
score the tying run. Cobban
walked, stole second and
scored the game-winner on
Hay ward's RBI single.

Quincy reached the final
four round of the District 8
AU-Star Tournament by de-
feating Hanson (8-2) and
Canton (5-0).

Members of the District
8 championship include Dan
Cobban , Andrew Currie , Matt
Davis, Brian Fahey, Mike
Gallotto, Josh Hayward, TJ
Hobin, Andrew Jaehnig, Da-
vid Joyce, Tom McDonald,
Jason Pekkinen, Mike Pug-

QUINCY MILITIA QUARTERBACK Matt Boyle launches a pass deep down field during the
Militia's home-opening 27-26 victory over the Brockton Bucs last Saturday evening at Veterans
Memorial Stadium.

Quincy Sun plwtoslLarrv Carchedilwww.northquincy .sinuiiinu^ .com

A NICE SHOWING of fans came out Saturday evening to cheer on the Quincy Militia at
Veterans Memorial Stadium. The team's next home game is scheduled for Aug. 8 against the
Bridgewater (iladiators.

Home Opener: A 27-26 Win Over Brockton

Quincy Militia Earn
Hard-Fought Victory

The Quincy Militia used
several big plays and a strin-
gent second-half defense to
defeat the Brockton Bucca-
neers, 27-26, last Saturday
evening in the team's home
opener held at Quincy 's Vet-
erans Memorial Stadium.

The win pushed the Mili-
tia's overall record to 2-0 in
the Eastern Football League
(EFL).

The Militia, which held
a late-game 27-20 lead,
stopped a potential game-
winning two-point conver-
sion by the Brockton offense
in the waning minutes of the
fourth quarter to hold on for
the 27-26 victory.

Brockton began the game
by marching down the field
on a 12-pIay drive, only to
see the possession stall out
inside the Militia's 20-yard
line. After taking over on of-
fense, Quincy capitalized on
its second play from scrim-
mage. Running back Dolan
Reid took the handoff from
quarterback Matt Boyle,
ran off-tackle and bolted
89-yards for the game's first
touchdown and a 6-0 lead.
Placekicker Will Moore's
point after attempt (PAT)
was blocked.

The Buccaneers, a two-
fime champion of the EFL,
responded to Quincy 's early
score with a touchdown of
its own as quarterback Mark
Reale connected with a re-
ceiver on a 25-yard TD pass.
The score remained 6-6 until
Boyle and the Militia offense

connected on its second big
play of the half.

On just the team's fourth
play on offense, Boyle rolled
left and found a streaking
Domenique Milton for a 57-
yard TD pass. Moore's PAT
attempt sailed through the
uprights giving Quincy a
13-6 lead.

The Buccaneers, behind
the stellar play of Reale un-
der center, scored two quick
touchdowns to give Brock-
ton a 20-13 first-half lead.
Reale 's first TD pass went
for 21 yards to wide receiver
Richard Garcia and his sec-
ond was a 17-yard TD pass
to wide receiver Wayman
Payne, Sr.

Facing the possibility of
trailing by seven points at
the halftime break, the Mi-
lifia responded, once again,
with a big time play on of-
fense. This time it was kick
returner AJ McLaughlin who
answered the call. McLaugh-
lin took the ensuing kickoff
after Brockton's third touch-
down of the half and returned
it 89 yards, untouched into
the end zone; the PAT was
successful and the half ended
deadlocked at 20-20.

The Militia coaching staff
used the break to reorganize
the team's defense, placing
more emphasis on getting
pressure on Reale and it
seemed to work. Pat Stroud,
Nicholas Chase and William
Giddens, all playing on the
defensive line, pressured
Reale into rushed throws

and got to him sacked on
several occasions, helping
stall Brockton's offense just
enough to give Quincy an
opportunity to take the lead.

The biggest play of the
second-half was a bungled
special teams play by Brock-
ton. After Quincy forced the
Bucs into a fourth and 18
from their own 40-yard line,
the snapped punt attempt
sailed over the Brockton's
punter's head and Quincy re-
gained offensive possession
at the Bucs' 10-yard line.

On the first play from
scrimmage, McLaughlin
took the handoff from Boyle
and barreled his way into the
end zone, giving Quincy the
26-20 lead. The PAT was suc-
cessful and the Militia would
hold on in the final minutes
to earn their second straight
win of the season.

Next up for the Quincy
Milifia is an away tilt this
Saturday against the Clinton
Irish Blizzard. The game w ill
be played at 7 p.m. on Fuller
Field in Clinton, MA The
team will open up the month
of August with an away game
against the Charlestown
Townies (8/1/09, 7 p.m.,
Charlestown HS) before re-
turning to Veterans Memo-
rial Stadium on August 8 to
play the Bridgewater Gladi-
ators at 7 p.m.

Sports Safety Tips From Milton Hospital's Chief Of Emergency Medicine, Paul Paganelli, M.D.

Stay On The Field And Out Of The Emergency Room

Summertime in New
England brings an explosion
of youth baseball, softball.
golf, lacrosse, soccer and
many other outdoor sports.
It is always important to
keep safety a top priority
when playing sports. As Na-
tional Youth Sports Week is
July 20-24. , there is even
more of a reason to bring
sports safety to the attention
of parents, players, coaches
and spectators.
Cell Phone Accessibility
First things first: always
bring a cell phone wherever
and whenever you practice
or play. The seconds and
minutes post-incident are
critical to a positive out-
come. Coaches need a way
to call 9 1 1 and should always
know the address of where
they are located. Having
a cell phone on site means
having immediate access to
it, so carry it in your pock-
et or leave it on the bench.
Do not leave it in your car.
Remember that spectators
can also have medical inci-
dents. Anticipate problems
your audience could have
whether it's peanut aller-
gies or issues specific to
older crowds. You may be
trained to teach a 10-year to
catch a baseball but you're
not expected to be a doctor.
If a problem occurs, call for
help right away.

Watch the Weather
According to the Na-
tional Athletic Trainers'
Position Statement on
Lightning, lightning is one
of the top three causes of
weather-related deaths. It

kills approximately 100
people yearly and is respon-
sible for approximately 500
injuries. SportsSafety.org
and NOAA.gov, suggests
coaches follow the 30-30
rule. Count the seconds after
you see lightning and if you
hear thunder before 30 sec-
onds have lapsed, seek safe
indoor shelter immediately:
an enclosed vehicle, rest-
room, or nearby building.
Dugouts or other "shaded"
locations may shield you
from rain but they are not
considered safe. Wait 30
minutes or more after the
last thunder is heard before
resuming play. If you see
further thunderstorm clouds
building, you should wait
at least another 30 minutes.
It's important, especially
if you're the home coach,
to have a plan in place for
where you will take players
and spectators in the event
of lightning.

Contagious and Blood
Borne Diseases

Communicable (con-
tagious) diseases and skin
infections such as MRSA
are unfortunately common
when playing sports. Re-
member the universal hy-
giene protocol for playing
sports - shower immediately
after competition and prac-
tice, wash all workout cloth-
ing after each use, wash per-
sonal gear such as knee pads
periodically, and don't share
towels or personal hygiene
products with others. All of
these can prevent passing
skin infections and diseases.
If you're the coach and no-

tice a lesion on a player, no-
tify the parent or guardian.
Similariy, if you're the par-
ent or guardian, notify the
coach. Athletes must have a
health-care provider evalu-
ate lesions before returning
to play.

When it comes to cuts
and scrapes, it is important
that at the first site of blood,
the player is taken out of the
game. It is extremely impor-
tant to never touch blood
without gloves, to minimize
the chance of infection.
When an injury occurs, wash
the wound with soap and
water and use clean dress-
ings to cover the wound.
If the injury is severe, call
91 1 or turn the child over to
their parent. A child should
not go back into the game
if they are still bleeding and
if they do continue playing,
monitor the wound to make,
sure it doesn't start bleed-
ing again. Clothing tainted
with blood should also be
removed before resuming
play to ensure other players
are not put at risk.

Stay Hydrat^d
Dehydration while play-
ing sports can be a major
problem and is also easily
prevented. Try to remem-
ber the 40/40 rule which is
to drink 40 ounces of water
per 40 minutes of exercise.
If possible, break it down
by drinking at least eight
ounces before, 24 during,
and eight after practice or a
game. Taking regular breaks
will also help prevent dehy-
dration. Sports drinks with
electrolytes can be a good

addition to a child's water
intake because they help
to replenish nutrients such
as calcium and potassium.
Also, remember to never to
share water bottles or cups
with others to minimize the
transfer of colds and virus-
es.

Head, Neck
and Back Injuries

Helmets when playing
contact sports are neces-
sary, but don't be fooled...
helmets often do not protect
against neck injuries. High
- contact sports have the high-
est risk for cervical spine
fractures. Children should
be cautioned that helmets
don't make them invisible
and they should still be care-
ful. Additionally, it's impor-
tant to routinely check safe-
ty equipment to make sure it
is not damaged, and players
should always be taught the
proper way to wear safety
equipment.

Unfortunately, head inju-
ries do happen, and players
should be evaluated imme-
diately. Whether a concus-
sion is mild or severe, play-
ers should not retum to the
game. Instead, they should
be treated by a medical
professional. Additionally,
back injuries are a common
problem in sports. If your
child or player is experienc-
ing back pain, make sure
they are properly evaluated
by a physician to determine
treatment.

BRUSH AWAY HEART ATTACKS?

According to the most recent
piece of research that links oral
hygiene with overall health, peo-
pie may be able to bwer their
heart attack risk by brushing
their teeth rriore often. It seems
that researchers have found that
people with the most germs in
their mouths are the most likely
to experierx^e heart attacks.
WhUe Tannerella forsynthesis
arxl Prevotella intemnedia were
found to be the rrxjst common
bacteria in the mouths of heart
attack vKtims, the rrjost con>
mon indicator of heart attack risk
was the total amount of bacteria
in heart patients' nxxjths. With
this in nwxl, researchers are
underscoring the importance of
tooth-bmsNng and regular den-
tal exams in minimizing heart
attack risk.

Ths column on the sig-
nificaice of tooth brushing has
been brought to you in the inter-
est of belter oral heaNh. We use

the most modem equipment and
advanced dental techniques in a

VOICE
FOR

HEALTH

by Dr. Gabrielle Freedman

EATING VEGETABLES STRENGTHENS BONES

While numerous studies have
consistently shown that eating
fruits and vegetables is good for
bones, a new study involving
the natural pigments found in
plants (called carotenoids) may
have discovered the reason why.
The four-year study looked at
changes in bone mineral density
at two areas of the hip and lumbar
spine in hundreds of men and
women (average age of 75 years).
Researchers found that carotenoids
(including alpha-carotene, beta-
crypt oxan thin ,lycopene ,and lutein
plus zeaxanthin), particularly
lycopene, were associated with
some level of protection against
losses in bone mineral density at
the hip in men and at the lumbar
spine in women. These results
suggest there is a protective effect
exerted by carotenoids against
bone loss in older adults.

Individuals who are at higher
risk should be especially attentive

about taking preventive measures
and getting tested for early signs of
bone loss , At FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CHIROPRACTIC, we provide
safe and gentle chiropractic
care for the entire family. We
take pride in providing you with
an affordable, convenient, and
natural health care alternative
through chiropractic. Rather than
just treat the symptom, we find the
underlying cause for your ache or
pain, and then help to correct it.
Call 617.472.4220 to schedule an
appointment and let us help you
feel better the natural way - the
chiropractic way. We're located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass., we can offer you
exceptional chiropractic service.

practices and games. A
basic first aid kit includes
antiseptic, gauze pads, scis-
sors, adhesive tape, an ace

latex gloves, band-aids, pain
medication such as aspirin,
tweezers, and sting and bite
treatment. Check with your
town or school about the
availability of heart defibril-
lators. While these require
training and can be expen-
sive, they can save lives.

solid safety rules will not

There's No

Age Limit on

Mammograms

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I am 81 and have been get-
ting mammograms for as
long as I can remember. My
doctor insists I continue to
get them. At my age, is it re-
ally necessary? -A.C.

ANSWER: I can offer you
the recommendations com-
ing from different respected
sources. They don't all agree
in all particulars. Did you
know that half of all breast
cancers are found in women
65 and older? A consider-
able number are diagnosed in
women in their 80s.

The American Cancer So-
ciety says there are no age
limits for mammograms, and
women should continue to
have them if they are in good
health. The U.S. Preventive
Services Task Force, a panel
of experts, tells women to
have a mammogram yearly or
every other year if her life ex-
pectancy isn't limited by other
diseases. The American Geri-
atrics Society recommends
that women 75 and older get
a mammogram every two to
three years if they have a life
expectancy of four or more
years. Unless studies are done
that show no benefit to con-
tinued mammograms, I go
with those who favor a yearly
mammogram for all women
in relatively good health.

Breast cancer is a topic that
frightens all women. The book-
let on that cancer explains it
and its detection. To obtain a
copy, write to: Dr. Donohue -

ries. If you're playing sports
and you're older, be your
own advocate. Or if you're
the parent or guardian of
a youth playing sports, be
your child's advocate. Go
to practices and games, dis-
cuss practice conditions,
and teach safe sports rules.
If a player has an injury or
isn't feeling well, make sure
to communicate that to the
coach. It's a great time of
year to get outside and play
sports. Here's wishing you a
safe and fun season!

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
My wife has been going
through menopause for the
past eight years. We have
not been intimate through
these years. When I bring
up the subject of intimacy,
she quickly states that she
doesn't want to talk about
it. She won't even hug me.

My wife is only 53 years
old. It seems like she will be
going through menopause
for the rest of her life. I have
been more than patient, but
I would like to have my wife
back. If you could give me
some advice, it would be
greatly appreciated. -J.T.

ANSWER: Menopause
can lessen sexual drive,
but it shouldn't completely
eliminate it, and menopause
doesn't usually drag on for
eight years.

Sexual desire is a com-
plex process that involves
hormones, nerves, blood ves-
sels, general health and the
brain. The brain is, perhaps,
the most important element.
Your wife needs professional
help. Her total lack of sexual
desire at a young age and for
so long could be a physical
problem, so the family doc-
tor is the place to start. If, as
is more likely the case, it is
a psychological problem, the
doctor can start treatment for
that, or can refer her to a spe-
cialist.

You have been more than

patient.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I take a fish-oil supplement
daily. Can you tell me if
these tablets contain mercu-
ry, as some fish do? - P.C.

ANSWER: Take your fish-
oil supplement without fear.
Such supplements contain
negligible, if any, amounts of
mercury. They won't make
you sick. They could make
you well.

A Thoi/ght

PATIENCE . . . What a word. . . Much
has been written and said about this

eight lettered word

It has been said that many a man
thinks he is patiently when, in reality,
SCOTT DEWARE he is indifferent. It has also been said
that many a person takes credit for being patient when they
are simply putting off doing something unpleasant . . .And
then there is an old Dutch proverb which states: *'An ounce
of patience is worth a pound of brains.''

We especially Uke this quotation written by David Samoff :
'Tatience is a two-sided coin. If patience is to be a virtue
it must be employed in a 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."

ARIES (March 21 to April

19) Your Aries leadership qual-
ities can help bring order out of
all that confusion, whether it's
on the job or in the home. But
be careful to guide, not goad,
others into following you.

TAURUS (April 20 to May

20) Applying a more personal
view to a job-linked issue could
help provide better insight into
those persistent problems. Use
your keen Taurean logic to cut
through the double-talk.

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Taking some time off could
be the best way to get through
that seemingly endless round
of demands. You'll return re-
freshed and ready to tackle
things from a new perspective.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Restoring a sagging profes-
sional relationship takes a lot of
effort. By all means, state your
position. But also make sure
you pay close attention to the
other person's point of view.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
A hot prospect intrigues the Big
Cat, who is always on the prowl
for a promising investment. But
be careful that this "promise"
has a chance of being kept.
Check it out more carefully.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) A friend could use
some of your compassion and
concern. If he or she doesn't
ask for help, be sure you step
up and make the first move.
Also, check out a new career
possibility.

LIBRA (September 23 to
October 22) You might have
difficulty getting your opin-
ions heard because of all the
noise being made by the other

side. But hang in there. Others
should line up with you once
they learn the facts.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Offering to help
a colleague is commendable.
But before you commit your
time and effort, check to see if
that person's situation is all that
he or she has led you to believe
it is.

SAGITTARIUS (Novem
ber 22 to December 21) You
should scx)n be seeing positive
results from your recent efforts
on behalf of a family member.
On another matter, check that
you have all the facts regarding
a job assignment.

CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Your aspects
favor closer family relation-
ships this week. Take time for
visits, whether in person, by
phone, by mail or in cyber-
space. Let them know how im-
portant they are to you.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A missed oppor-
tunity isn't always a negative.
Maybe your instincts are telling
you not to rush into something
you "thought" was worthwhile.
Make time lor family this
weekend.

PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Your sense of humor
helps you get through a tricky
situation. But some stick-in-the-
muds might not be so willing to
make the changes that you and
others agree are necessary.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a gift for making everyone
you know - or even just met ~
feel important and welcome in
your life.

Conf d From Pa^e I
approached by the commu-
nity council and they asked
if they could take it over,
which I hoped for."

The drive has prospered
over the years. For the first
20 years, each blood drive
has averaged over 105 units.
The numbers have decreased
in the past five years, but are
still above the national aver-
age.

"Over the past five years
the blood donations have
dropped off, but we're
still one of the best drives
around," Charlie said.

Donors were greeted at
the door by Peter and com-
munity council member Jim
McCarthy, another driving
force behind the event. They
signed in and were brought
to one of the 12 nurses on
hand to draw blood for the
Red Cross. After giving
blood, they were encour-
aged to eat something sweet
from the seemingly limitless
supply of baskets and plates
of a wide array of desserts.

'The people who volun-
teer carried on my wife's
tradition of bringing in all
kinds of goodies,' Charlie
said with a laugh.

Ail donators also re-
ceived a T-shirt as a way of
thanks for taking time out of
their day to give blood.

Barbara Marcotte, a Red
Cross recruiter, said the

Houghs Neck drive is one
of the busiest in the area
for obvious reasons. "When
you have a drive in memory
of two very well-liked peo-
ple, we get a lot of special
friends and family," said
Marcotte. "It's something
like this that brings people
out of the woodwork."

"I hope it will go on an-
other 25 years and I'll be
here as long as I can," he
said. "This is one of the nice
things Houghs Neck does
and Houghs Neck does a lot
of nice things."

Charlie couldn't put his
finger on it, but has found
that people who donate

CENTRAL MIDDLE SCHOOL was buflt in the late 1800's and is long overdue for replacement,

Koch, Committee
Eye Fall Action On
New Central School

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Mayor Thomas Koch
and the School Building
Committee hope to move
full speed ahead this fall
on plans for a new Central
Middle School estimated to
cost roughly $20 million.

State funding is expected
to cover 63% (approximate-
ly $12.6 million) of the
building expenditures, ac-
cording to Koch. However,
school building assistance

does not cover the purchase
of land.

Both Koch and the com-
mittee want the new school
sited on Hancock Street
across from the Adams Walk
Park and Veterans' Stadium.

The properties targeted
include three parcels, rang-
ing from 837 Hancock St.
through 865 Hancock St.

Lori Ann's Lunch &.
Breakfast (formerly The
Egg & 1) currently occu-

pies portions of one parcel,
owned by Eastern Nazarene
College. The second houses
President City Inn, owned by
RINA, Inc.. while the own-
ers of Hancock Street Car
Wash are listed as Cordone
Gaetano Trustees (Hancock
Realty Trust).

"We're a built-out city. 1
don't see any locations bet-
ter than that. It fits the dis-
trict." Koch said recently.

Police Sgt. Paul Turowski Pulls
Nomination Papers For Mayor

Paul Turowski, a Quincy
police sergeant, took nomi-
nation papers out to run for
mayor Tuesday afternoon,
according to the Quincy
Election Office.

Turowski, age 49, of
125 Edgewater Dr., Houghs
Neck, is registered as an un-
enrolled voter.

There are no city ordi-
nances preventing city em-
ployees including Quincy
police officers or firefight-
ers from running for elected

office in the city, said City
Clerk Joseph Shea. Howev-
er, if elected, a city employ-
ee would have to choose
between their city job or
serving as mayor.

In addition, public em-
ployees seeking office in
Quincy would have to form
a campaign committee in or-
der to raise political funds.

There are already two
candidates for mayor who
have returned nomination
papers: incumbent Tom

Koch, who is seeking a sec-
ond term; and former Mayor
William Phelan, who served
six years as mayor before
Koch defeated him in 2007.

The last Quincy police
officer to be a candidate for
office was Richard Crespi
in 1991 when he ran unsuc-
cessfully for School Com-
mittee.

The last day to file nomi-
nation papers with at least
50 valid signatures is next
Tuesday, Aug. 4 at 5 p.m.

Koch, Committee Eye Fall Action On New Central

Cont'd From Pa^e I

adding that he hopes to
"maKe it happen this fall"

Koch and city officials
have begun talks with prop-
erty owners but, at least one
property owner. Eastern
Nazarene College, may have
misgivings about the project
and a sale of the land as the
project clashes with the col-
lege's plans for expansion.

Ashish Sangani, co-own-
er of the President City Inn,
this week complemented
crty officials, saying he is
pleased that the city has
been very open with him
about the proposed school.
However, there have been
no formal negotiations to
date.

As for the second parcel
owned by Eastern Nazarene
College, there may be more
complications. In a formal
statement issued Monday,
ENC President Corlis Mc-
Gee outlined the college's
history of ownership and
plans for their Hancock
Street property which was
purchased in the 1990's "as
part of the college's long-
term expansion plans.

In her formal statement.
Dr. McGee said that ENC
sold the motel property in
2003, "in order to focus on
our core educational mis-
sion, retaining the rest of the
property for possible future
expansion."

. Dr. McGee has discussed

the plans with the mayor's
office and indicated the
college will continue to
"monitor the situation and
participate in discussions.
She concluded, "We recog-
nize the community's need
for a new Central Middle
School..."

In fact, the century old
Central Middle School has
been targeted for major re-
pairs or replacement for de-
cades as press reports of a
"bulging wall in 1935" and
a roof collapse in 1988 drew
raised concerns about the
structure.

Despite the building's
condition, the 500-600 stu-
dents have matched or sur-
passed students in more
modem facilities. As an
example. Central's Grade
6 through Grade 8 MCAS
scores are consistently 10%
to 20% above the average in
the state's MCAS exams.

Learning still goes on the
school building declared the
"worst in the state" by state
officials and a structure that
Koch says can not be fixed.

Koch said the structure
is "all wood-frame. The old
building is well beyond re-
pair."

"My request is the Cen-
tral Middle School be sold.
Get that on the tax rolls,"
added Koch, noting that the
Central Middle School has
been discussed periodically
since Mayor Walter Han-

non's term and the build-
ing has not improved much
since.

The former Quincy High
School will be empty in
2012 but it is not suitable
for a middle school, accord-
ing to Koch who expects the
city will use the space for
municipal offices. He said
some city departments are
still in space leased from
private owners and others
departments are overcrowd-
ed.

"We like the (Hancock
Street) site," said School
Committee member Jo Ann
Bragg who described the
unanimous finding of the
nine-member School Build-
ing Committee.

Bragg and School Com-
mittee member Ann Ma-
honey are two members of
School Building Commit-
tee which unanimously ap-
proved the Hancock Street
location in late spring.

The Committee, also,
chose Tishman Construction
Co. as the Project Owners'
Manager.

"We've been working on
it for over a year," said Bragg
who served on the original
Central Middle School task
force during Mayor James
Sheets' terms.

Bragg noted that students
at the proposed new campus
could have access to a park
across the street, baseball
and soccer fields.

PRESIDENTS CITY INN would be replaced by a new Central Middle School under a plan sup-
ported unanimously by Mayor Thomas Koch and the School Building Committee which voted
unanimously to choose the Hancock Street location. Two other parcels, Lori Ann's Breakfast on
the left and the Hancock Street Car Wash to the right (not shown) would, also, be included as

part of the site plan.

"There were limited loca-
tions," said Mahoney who,
originally, favored the old
Quincy High School build-
ing as a possible location. "1
felt that was an option."

Mahoney said she be-
lieves the Quincy High
School site does not meet
the state agency's criteria

four candidates.

Now the committee must
consider architects' bids and
negotiate with the owners of
the property and that's just
the begirming, according to
Bragg and Mahoney.

Bragg outlined the vari-
ous steps which must be
taken for approvals from the

Quincy Sun Photo/Robert Noble
for the best we can for our
students."

Mahoney wants all the
fundamentals in place for
September, "Time is tick-
ing."

In addition, Mahoney
said that because of the con-
dition of Central Middle
School, the state's SBA has

"That would be one of
the hurdles." She said.

"We were looking at a

Bragg, referring to the

aspects of the construction
of a new Central Middle

IN THE PINK!

While the color pink seems a wide range of budgets
to be a perennial favorite, pink-
colored gemstones are making
exceptionally big splash

an

this season. This is entirely
understandable, of course, when
one considers that pink stands out
as the perfect complement to a host
of other gemstones with colors that
range from pastel shades of lemon
and lime to orange and turquoise.
In addition, pink gemstones
such as morganite, kunzite, and
rubellite,as well as pink sapphires
and diamonds, not only work with
many fashion colors, they also
flatter most skin types. The biggest
statements are made by pieces
with deep, shocking-pink colors.
Such gemstones are available at a
variety of price levels to appeal to

Tall Ship Ceremony Honors Quincy's Russell Erikson

French Officials Recognize World War II Hero

One of the littlest Tall
Ships may just have made
the biggest splash in Boston
Harbor for local residents
as French officials chose to
honor three of their Ameri-
can heroes on the deck of
the 123-foot schooner. La
Belle Poule.

La Belle Poule and her
sister schooner, L'Etoile,
both played important roles
in the liberation of France
during World War 11 as did
local heroes, Russell Erik-
son, Quincy; Walter Fitz-
maurice , North Reading , and
Joseph Terriault, Milton.

The two schooners made
their first trip ever across
the Atlantic to participate in
the Tall Ships Atlantic Chal-
lenge 2009 and to offer a
very French setting for the
July 9 ceremony honoring
the three men.

"Welcome to French Ter-
ritory," Franklin Simon, a
decorated WWII veteran and
previous Legion of Honor
recipient, said as friends
and family of the veterans

boarded La Belle Poule.

Francois Gauthier, Con-
sul General of France in
Boston, personally awarded
Erikson, Fitzmaurice and
Terriault, the Legion of
Honor medal for their part
in liberating France from
German occupation over 60
years ago.

Erikson served as a B-24
pilot flying out of Shipton,
England, dropping weapons
designed to force German
troops out of French fortifi-
cations.

The award is the highest
civilian and military honor
bestowed by the French
government and is officially
the "National Order of the
Legion of Honor."

"France doesn't forget."
Gauthier said after thank-
ing the three heroes for their
individual contributions and
their sacrifices as young
men. "Liberty has a cost."

Gauthier said he hopes
the values of the 'Greatest
Generation' will continue

I didn't vote for President Barack Obama in last fall's
election.
But after his inauguration seven
months ago, I put partisan politics aside
and decided I would support the President
as he tried to effect a positive change on
many issues. I would also keep an open
mind as he brought leadership to impor-
tant matters such as the nation's economy,
the war on terrorism, and most recently, a
national health care system.

Now, my political "honeymoon" with President Obama
is officially over.

And it had been building up for quite a while.

For starters, I was disappointed over the President's re-
marks months ago on late night television where he likened
his bowling ability to the Special Olympics. It was a bad
joke at best.

But in my book it missed the mark more so than the gut-
ter ball he tossed down the alley during last fall's election.
It was a very insensitive comment which offended people
in numerous circles, not just those who are physically chal-
lenged - but also those who are not.

Of course, the President apologized for his comments
soon afterward.

Then, a few weeks ago, he looked very non-Presidential
at Major League Baseball's All-Star Game in St. Louis. And
I'm not talking about his jeans which have been critiqued by
major news networks and celebrity fashion correspondents
alike. (The jeans passed my fashion standards if it means
anything, Mr. President.)

Instead, it was Obama's appearance in the locker rooms
before the game that had me scratching my head.

The camera followed the President as he met some of
the American League stars. There was New York Yankees
captain Derek Jeter with his hand stretched out to shake the
President's hand and give him a proper, dignified greeting.

Do you think Obama could have done the same?

Instead, the President opted for the "hey man, how ya
doin'?" routine. It was uncomfortable to watch and Jeter
looked uneasy too.

Okay, no big deal. Not a national crisis or anything but
am I asking too much for my President to carry himself with
a little more dignity?

The last straw to break my back was Obama's comments
during last week's nationally-televised press conference
when he was supposed to explain his case for a national
health care system. Well, he did for most of it but of course
the major headlines generated by the conference stemmed
from his remarks regarding the arrest of Harvard scholar
Henry Gates at his Cambridge home.

Gates was arrested for disorderiy conduct after he forced
open the jammed front door to his home. A neighbor re-
ported it as a break-in.

According to Gates, the police booked him even though
he showed his driver's license and Harvard ID to prove that
he lived in the house. However, the arresting officer, Sgt.
James Crowley, has said the professor was loud and abusive.
A disorderiy conduct charge against Gates was dropped.

WTien asked about the incident by a reporter, the Presi-
dent replied the Cambridge police "acted stupidly" when
they handcuffed Gates even though he didn't know all the
facts.

Didn't know all the facts?

Then why comment at all?

Boy, I hope the President doesn't use this kind of judg-
ment when he's contemplating sending additional troops
into Iraq or Afghanistan.

Obama has since revised his "stupid" conrmient and has
offered to smooth over tensions by having a beer with Sgt.
Crowley and Professor Gates at the White House.

But did it really have to get to this point?

I know there are two schools of thought regarding what
actually happened after police were called to Gates's home
in Cambridge. There are generally two sides to every story.
And often times the truth lies somewhere in between.

It now appears an independent review of the incident will
take place and perhaps the public will soon know exactly
what transpired at Gates's home.

Until that time, I am not taking sides on what happened
in the Gates' arrest scenario. I wasn't there; I don't know all
the facts.

CHRIS

PATRICK

I wish the President had steered clear from commenting
on this spiraling news story in the first place because he ad-
mitted he doesn't know all the facts, either.

But what is crystal clear is that the President's attempts at
humor are beginning to annoy me.

While trying to make a serious, salient point about race
relations in this country at the same press conference, he got
the urge again to try to be funny.

Obama, the nation's first black President, suggested that
police would have arrested him too if he had tried to jimmy
his way into his old house in Chicago because of the color
of his skin.

And if he tried to do the same at the White House?
Our President - who won't be confused with Jay Leno -
joked: "Here, I'd get shot."

Is that really supposed to be funny?
I'm not laughing.

Mr. President, you seem like a decent guy. And I'm also
available if you want to have a beer sometime.
But let's leave the one-liners to the professionals.
This country could use more leadership, and fewer
punch-lines.

HOW'D THEY GET THAT NUMBER? - I was sitting
in the dentist office the other day when my cell phone rang. I
didn't recognize the number so I sent the call to voice mail.

When I later retrieved it, a computer voice said: "If you
wish to be placed on the national do-not call registry, please
press 1."

Huh?

So, I needed to call the number back to make sure they
didn't call again?

Sounds like a Seinfeld skit to me.

Phelan's Tair Campaign Practice'

Am I to understand that
Bill Phelan sent a letter to
Tom Koch, asking for a
"Fair Campaign Practice?"

1 have read all the attacks
launched by Mr. Phelan
against Mr. Koch.

Where does the fair cam-
paign practice come in?

Mr. Phelan has blamed

Koch for everything under
the sun. Mr. Phelan blames
Koch for the economy, in
this city.

I blame both people for
the cross-town connector.

It was Phelan that dusted
off the plans for the connec-

Mr. Phelan claims that he

totally supports the Quincy

My question is: Who did
the firefighters endorse for

Mr. Phelan, stop the at-

Good Shepherd's Maria Droste Fashion Show Success

Each year, for the past
three years, Susan and her

hair styling for the models

at the annual spring fash-

task; the continual changing
of clothing requires many
touch ups. When an outfit
requires a special coiffure
they know just what the
right look should be. The

continued support and send
many "kudos" to her staff

Happy Birthday, Carmine D'Olimpio

This Week

1990

19 Years Ago

This July, my father Car-
mine D'Olimpio would have
been 81 years old. I figured
what better way to celebrate
his memory than here in
the 'Letter to the Editor.'
He loved to enter the fray
through the printed word,
a true believer that the pen
was indeed mightier than
the sword.

He was a man of deep
conviction, a fierce and
proud Democrat, firmly
rooted in the causes of the
workingman and woman.

I'm sure my father would
have been elated with the
election of Barack Obama
and supported his efforts
to move our country back
from the precipice the Bush
administration has lead our
nation.

Three principles marked
my father's life, family,
faith and fraternity. His love
for family is a legacy that
we who called him husband,
dad, brother, uncle and
grandfather will treasure.

Carmine's life was cen-

tered in his faith and he lived
out that faith by example.
We shared with him at the
Lord's Table at St. John's
Church every week. Com-
munion was an extension of
the daily meal he presided
over in his family home.

In fraternity of the labor
unions he was a lion who
championed the call for fair
and just wages, equal oppor-
tunity and community stan-
dards that raised the lives of
working men and women in
the South Shore and across

the state.

He called the neighbor-
hoods on Sumner Street,
Quincy, where he grew up a
mini-United Nations, where
families of all nationalities
and traditions shared the
burdens and joys through
the Depression and a World
War. He never forgot where
he came from.

Happy Birthday, Dad.

BAR HOURS ROLLBACK
ON A CASE-BY-CASE BASIS

In an effort to reduce vandalism, other crime and litter.
Mayor James Sheets is considering rolling back the hours

hours.

Last week, the mayor proposed forcing all bars to close
at midnight instead of 1 a.m., banning all-night convenience
stores and restncting the hours of fast food restaurants.

Sheets has asked John Gills, chairman of the License
Board, for a list of bar. lounge, convenience store and fast
food restaurant owners. The mavor said he would then meet
with them to discuss vandalism and litter problems and pos-
sible solutions.

LaRAIA: ANOTHER COMEBACK?

The Quincy Sun Sunbeams Column reported the pos-
sibility of a political comeback for former mayor and cit\
councillor Joseph LaRaia. The speculation, that in the 1991
city election LaRaia would seek a councillor at-large seat
and if successful, would build support for a future run for
mayor. (Editor's note: Joseph LaRaia would be an unsuc-
cessful candidate for councillor at-large in 1991 . However,
he would be appointed to the councillor at-large seat in
March 1993, replacing Pat Toland who resigned to accept
the position of assistant city clerk LaRaia would be elected
in the 1993 election, only to resign in July 1995 to accept a
seat on the Board of Assessors.)

Jean's Creamy Mac & Cheese

I had just returned from a trip to Cape Cod
when 1 was invited to dinner at my brother
Phil and Teresa's home. His daughters Jean
and Ann were also going to be there. At hrst
I said I didn't think 1 wanted to go out since
1 had to unpack and do laundry and the usual
things after a few days away.

Jean told me she was cooking a different
recipe for baked macaroni and cheese. And 1
hardly ever can pass up trying a new recipe,
especially when it includes pasta of any kind.
So after a couple of minutes , I called her back
and said 1 would go to dinner. And was I glad
I did, the dish was so creamy and delicious
and it also had a surprise.

The surprise was Jean's boyfriend Doug
has grape jelly with his mac and cheese. At
first we couldn't believe how that would work,
but both Jean and I tried it on one piece of
pasta and it tasted pretty good.
CREAMY BAKED

1 pound of mezzi Rigatoni macaroni (or
other small pasta)

1 quart whole milk

8 tablespoons butter (1 stick )

grated (about 2 cups

1/2 teaspoon

1/2 teaspoon peppers

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1 1/2 cups bread crumbs

Cook macaroni according to directions.

While that is cooking, heat the milk in a
small sauce pan. Do not boil.

in another pan, melt six tablespoons of
the butter and add the flour making a roux.
Cook over low heat for about two minutes
stirring with a whisk (or fork.)

While stirring, add the hot milk and cook
for another two or three minutes, until the
mixture is smooth.

Turn off heat, and add the two cheeses,
the salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add the cooked
macaroni and stir well. Pour into a casserole
dish.

Place the sliced tomatoes across the top.
Melt two tablespoons of butter and combine
with the breadcrumbs. Sprinkle on top of the

Quincy 's Sam Mele - Former Big League Scout - Helped Discover The Red Sox Legend

Rice's Hall Of Fame Induction Honor Long Overdue

By JOE REARDON

Quincy 's Sam Mele
clearly remembers the first
time he saw Red Sox legend
and Hall-of-Famer Jim Rice
play, long before he patroled
left field and was recognized
as the most feared hitter of
his era in the American
League.

Mele worked as a Red
Sox scout and instructor
after a 10-year career as a
player that included two
stints with Boston (47-49,
54-55). He saw early on that
Rice, who was inducted into
Cooperstown with Rickey
Henderson on Sunday, had
a sharp eye at the plate and
could hit to all fields.

Rice retired in 1989 with
382 home runs, 2,452 hits
and a .298 batting average.
The Gold Glove outfielder
was also an eight-time all
star.

"It took too long," said
Mele of Rice's induction in
his 15th and final year on
the ballot. "Part of it was he
didn't give into the press.
He did his own thing. You
ask any player in that era
who played with him and
they loved him.

"Pitchers did not want to
see him at bat. He wasn't the
fastest guy, but he could run
the bases. They forget how
good he played the left-field
wall, they forget how well
he ran the bases, he rounded
the bases perfectly and he
never threw to the wrong
base.

"He was the same type
of hitter as Manny Ramirez.
Power. Right-field line, cen-
ter, left-center, left field. He
wanted to play every game.
He never wanted to be taken
out of the lineup."

During Rice's speech in

upstate New York on Sun-
day, he thanked Mele and
fellow scout Mitch Brown
being instrumental in the
Red Sox drafting him back
in 1971.

That was heading to-
wards the 1971 draft during
a summer game in Ander-
son, South Carolina, the first
time Mele ever saw Rice in
action.

Mele took several notes
on Rice and talked over his
talents with Brown. When
the future hall of famer was
just a youngster Mele no-
ticed .when he played the
outfield. Rice would keep
his legs parallel when, nor-
mally, Mele would like to
see a right-handed thrower
keep his left leg slightly in
front because he's going to
throw from that side. "He
was a young kid and he hit
a few line drives that day,
I mean hard," said Mele,
who played right-field for
the Red Sox alongside Dom
DiMaggio in center and Ted
Williams in left. "He wasn't
a big guy then. And I re-
member, 1 was looking at
him and looking at him, and
thinking if he got those balls
in the air, they're gone.

"He hit a ball down the
left-field line hard, it hit the
fence and just caromed away
from the left fielder and he
had a stand-up triple. If you
look at his (career) stats he
hit a lot of triples because he
was a gap hitter.

Mele noted Rice's hustle
in the outfield and strength
in charging the balls hit be-
tween third and shortstop.
What Rice needed to do, and
eventually became one of
the best at in the big leagues,
was to slow down about 30
feet from the ball to set up a

strong throw.

The second time Mele
and Brown went to get a
good look at Rice, he wasn't
in the starting lineup or
on the bench. Rice finally
showed up in the third in-
ning.

"There's a Detroit (Ti-
gers) scout with us and
says 'Well that young fella
doesn't seem like he wants
to be a professional ball
player,' so he leaves," said
Mele.

After the game Mele
asked Rice why he was late
and Rice told him he worked
in a grocery store and the
boy covering the next shift
didn't show up. Rice decided
to stay at work and help the
owner. Mele was thoroughly
impressed by Rice's charac-
ter and that hasn't changed
over the years.

"That really shows you
just what kind of a guy he
is,^' Mele said. "To this day
he calls me Mr. Mele. 1 told
him to call me Sam, but he
still calls me Mr. Mele."

The third time Mele saw
Rice play, he pulled into the
parking lot and Rice was
batting. The opposite team's
coach must have known Rice
was a fearsome fastball hit-
ter and told his pitchers' to
mix it up with some break-
ing balls and curve balls to
keep him off balance.

Rice made them pay for
it when he stepped into the
batter's box.

"At that level the break-
ing ball isn't a strong pitch
and was tough to control,"
Mese said. "When the pitch-
er came back with the fast-
ball he wasn't about to miss
it. If he was going to get to

kinds of problems handling
a big league curve ball. He
wound up leaving before the

final inning, but Mele and ida, run by Mele, and Rice

Brown continued to watch.

Rice put on yet another
hitting display. "He's a little
bigger, a little stronger and
hitting line drives," said
Mele.

Houston, though, was
very much in the hunt for
Rice in the 1971 draft and
the Astros viewed him as
their top prospect. Hous-
ton wound up changing its
mind, deciding instead to
go after a pitcher. Boston

was on the list of players on
the roster.

vides the post-game cov-
erage on NESN, Mele is
confident the team is built to
take its third championship
in six years in October.

" This year's Red Sox

Morrissey Votes To Preserve Affordable Housing

The Massachusetts Sen-
ate has passed legislation
to preserve the stock of
publicity-assisted afford-
able housing units across
the state and protect the
rights of tenants by imple-
menting earlier notifica-
tion standards for property
owners and establishing a
non-partisan advisory board
representing tenants, prop-
erty owners, municipalities
and preservation experts to
work with the state in devel-
oping future regulations.

"With unemployment
rates skyrocketing in this
unprecedented financial
crisis, this piece of legisla-
tion seeks to protect con-
sumers from predatory rent
increases and maintain the
preservation of essential
affordable housing for our
must vulnerable citizens,"
said Sen. Michael Morris-
sey of Quincy.

The bill targets the
state's estimated 90,000
government-assisted rental
housing units, including so-
called "expiring use" units
whose affordability restric-
tions can end by owners
prepaying their subsidized
mortgages or not renewing
their rent assistance con-
tracts upon expiration. Mas-
sachusetts is at risk of los-
ing more than 23,000 units
by the end of 2012. Many
of the residents in "expiring
use" buildings are seniors or
people with disabilities.

The Senate legislation
establishes provisions that
will help preserve as many
units as possible. It requires
owners who want to sell

MICHAEL MORRISSEY

affordable rental property,
thereby ending its afford-
ability status, to offer a
right of first refusal to the
Department of Housing and
Community Development
(DHCD) or the local munic-
ipality to purchase the prop-
erty so that affordability can
be preserved.

The bill implementing
a string of notification re-
quirements also aimed at
preserving affordability and
protecting tenants. They in-

clude the following:

• Written notice must
be given at least two years
prior to the affordability re-
striction's termination;

• Written notice of in-
tent to complete termination
must be given at least one
year before termination;

• Owners must given
notice of intent to sell the
property;

• Owners, upon notices
of intent to sell, must make
documents, including ar-

chitectural plans, capital
expenses and the number of
vacancies available for re-
view by DHCD to help de-
termine property value and
purchasing options.

The legislation further
ensures the protection of
tenants by preventing unfair
rent increa.ses for three years
after the termination of af-
fordability restrictions and
forbidding no-fault evic-
tions.

Finally, to oversee com-

pliance with the bill and se-
cure future safeguards, the
bill gives DHCD authonl)
to establish a 13-member
advisors committee consist-
ing of housing advocates,
municipal representatives,
developers and the real es-
tate bar that will help pro-
vide regulatory advice and
recommendations

The bill advanced to the
House of the Representa-
tives for further action.

New Security Cameras
Guard Library Treasures

Wollaston Garden Club
members are circulating
their own "Most Wanted"
profile this week.

The Garden Club's Most
Wanted poster features a
thief in action on camera at
Thomas Crane Public Li-
brary, 20 Washington St.,
Quincy Center.

The culprit snatched
three framed photographs
from the Wollaston Garden
Club's photo exhibit last
December and Ruth Grif-
fin and other members said
the woman's picture should
be publicized and tracked
down.

The stolen photographs
were part of an exhibit of
100 photos of garden flow-
ers taken by 20 members of
the club.

Library Director Ann
McLaughlin said the club
members were given the still
photograph taken from a
video taping of the incident.
The effort may identify the

thief and perhaps dissuade
others.

McLaughlin said the li-
brary recently installed even
more cameras throughout

lin said a grate shut when

to dissuade petty thieves.

One of the most publi-
cized incidents of larceny at
the library occurred several
years ago when a thief ran
off with quilts from a library
exhibit. That thief was later
caught.

McLaughlin said security
guards patrol the library all
hours and the new surveil-
lance should be an extra aid.
However, nothing guaran-
tees that every item is safe
or that thieves won't swipe
items from future exhibits.

In addition to the cam-
eras, McLaughlin said the
exits have equipment that
will beep or buzz when
suspicious material passes
through.

Rick Doane New Executive Director
Of Interfaith Social Services

Interfaith Social Ser-
vices (ISS) announces Rick
S. Doane of Randolph has
been named executive di-
rector.

Doane, a Weymouth na-
tive, succeeds Laura Stracco
who was affiliated with In-
terfaith Social Services for
13 years before stepping
down.

Doane earned a bach-
elor of arts degree from
Brigham Young University,
and a master's in public
administration from Suf-
folk University.

For the past five years,
Doane was Allocations and
Operations manager at Proj-
ect Bread in Boston. In this
capacity, he oversaw the an-
nual allocation of funds to
more than 400 emergency
food providers through-
out Massachusetts, includ-
ing ISS. He also adminis-
tered all logistical concerns
for Project Bread, one of the
state's most prominent non-
profit organizations.

"Rick has always want-
ed to lead a social service
agency where he could
provide hands-on service
to persons in need," said
John Martland, president of
ISS. "When he learned that
Laura Stracco was stepping
down, he felt called to the
position."

"From 1999 to 2001 I
was a missionary in Sao
Paulo, Brazil," says Doane.
"My experiences in South
America opened my eyes to
global poverty and the im-
portance of service to oth-
ers. It further reinforced my
belief that families are the
bedrock upon which com-
munities are founded.

"My devotion to serv-
ing others has been strongly
influenced by my parents.

Granite City Self-Storage Celebrates 25 Years

Granite City Self-Stor-
age owners Don and Paula
McNally recently celebrat-
ed 25 years in business at a
ribbon cutting ceremony at
their newly expanded loca-
tion at 95 Old Colony Ave.
in Quincy.

On hand to congratulate
them were Mayor Thomas
P. Koch, City Councillors
Kevin Coughlin and Doug
Gutro, Quincy 2000 Collab-
orative Executive Director
Dean Rizzo, Quincy 2000
Collaborative Chairman
Ed Keohane, area business
owners, and staff.

While today's fiscal cli-
mate has certainly taken
its toll on some industries,
the self-storage industry is
one that has traditionally

remained recession-proof.
And that historic perspec-
tive, couple with 25 years
of experience in the busi-
ness, IS what gave Granite
City Self-Storage owners
Don and Paula McNally the
confidence to expand their
facility.

"With the economy the
way that it is, many people
and businesses are finding it
best to downsize from what
they have," said McNally.
"They are riding it out and
putting their belongings in
storage, which results in an
increase in demand for stor-
age space."

The newly expanded
facility has added 30. (KK)
square feet of space which
brings the total number of

units to over l,5(K) All
units are climate controlled,
secure, and well lit and may
be rented for cither short-
term or long-term use

"With an abundance of
apartments and condomini-
ums in Quinc), there is a
high demand for climate
controlled storage." said
McNally

In addition to the self-
storage component, the la
cility at 95 Old Colony Ave
also includes a mail center
and IS an authorized agent
for I PS and Federal Hx-
press.

Granite City Self- Stor-
age has three Quincy loca-
tions. 95 Old Colony Ave .

USS Salem To Host
Family Sleepover Aug. 22-23

The USS Salem, a 716--
foot U.S. Navy Heavy
Cruiser Gunship, will host
a Family Overnight Ad-
venture program during the
weekend of August 22-23.
This program is open to
families who are looking for
a fun, activity-filled week-
end; this will be the second
year that the museum ship
has opened up its overnight
program to families.

"We have operated our
Overnight Adventure pro-
gram for more than twelve
years now," said Michael
Condon. Executive Direc-
tor of the USS Salem. "Nor-
mally our program is tar-
geted toward youth groups

and school groups but last
year we decided to give lo-
cal families an opportunity
to participate and it was a
big hit."

The program, which runs
Saturday through Sunday
and takes place on board
the USS Salem at the for-
mer Fore River Shipyard
in Quincy, includes fun,
hands on and educational
activities, all your meals
and a Boston Harbor cruise
aboard the Harbor Express
water shuttle. Participants
eat their meals in the ship's
mess decks and sleep in the
crew's quarters.

"Thousands of kids have
participated in the program.

but until last summer you
had to be part of a school or
youth group to attend," add-
ed Condon. "We wanted to
give other families a chance
to have a fun weekend with
their children aboard a real
Navy ship. The Overnight
Adventure program is a great
way to spend time with your
kids in an organized and fun
environment."

The cost is $45 per person
and includes all activities,
meals and accommodation
on board the USS Salem. To
reserve your space, or for

Alexander Miner On Dean's List

Alexander Miner of
Quincy has been named to
the Dean's List at American
University. Washington, DC

for the Spring semester.

Miner is a junior in
American University's Ko-

god School of Business ma-
joring in business adminis-

Here's a new subject to
consider, one that firefight-
ers frequently experience
during late evening and
early morning incidents, the
impact of alcohol use and
the increase risk of fire.

Statistics indicate that
alcohol intoxication may
increase the risk of start-
ing a fire by impairing an
individual's judgment and
coordination. A smoker for
instance, under the influ-
ence of alcohol, is more
susceptible to falling asleep
and dropping a lit cigarette
onto upholstery or cloth-
ing. Cooking is frequently
left unattended when those
impaired by alcohol for-
get their prior efforts in the
kitchen and either leave the
premise or head off to sleep
in another room.

The effects of alcohol
may impair an individual's
sense of smell and retard
one's perception of smoke,
or impair an individual's
ability to hear an alarm de-
laying their response to a

fire incident. Escaping from
a fire can be hampered by
the loss of motor coordina-
tion and mental clarity.

According to the Center
for Disease Control and Pre-
vention, alcohol use and the
resulting impairment may
be the strongest independent
factor for death from fire.
One study concluded that
intoxication contributed to
an estimated 40% of deaths
due to fire within residenc-
es. Alcohol alters one's cog-
nitive, physiological and
motor functions increasing
the chance of starting a fire,
while reducing the chance
of survival during a fire.

Men have been found
to consistently outnumber
women among tire casual-
ties; this disparity increases
for men under the influence
of alcohol as well. Drinking
behaviors that are character-
istic of each gender and var-
ious age groups may explain
these findings.

It has been suggested
that alcohol-related injuries
have more to do with drink-
ing patterns rather than the
total amount of alcohol con-
sumed. Who drinks, where
they drink, what they drink
and under what social and
cultural circumstances they
drink under are perhaps

more significant factors
than the amount of alcohol
consumed by an individual.
For instance, a lone drinker
at home is probably at a
greater risk of fire than a
group drinking in a bar or
restaurant. The number of
drinks consumed in a sitting
seems to matter a great deal
as well.

In another study, alco-
hol related deaths begin in-
creasing at 4PM and peak at
5AM. Fatalities are relative-
ly constant throughout the
year, 70% of these fatalities
occur between the ages of
25 and 54 years of age.

Locally, we so often wit-
ness the effect of alcohol on
fire incidents. They do tend
to occur in the evening and
early morning hours. Unat-
tended cooking and careless
disposal of smoking materi-
als seems to dominate the
cause of these incidents.
Therefore kindly drink re-
sponsibly, and please keep
in mind that as studies indi-
cate, alcohol can be a con-
tributing factor in impairing
judgment, the consequences
of which can lead to resi-
dential fire incidents.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF MOST FOOT PROBLEMS

In 20 years, many feet
have passed through my
door. The reason for pain
in the majority of them is
due to the obliteration of a
funnel-shaped space in the
rear of the foot called the
sinus tarsi, which is located
between the talus and cal-
caneus.

Since we average up
to 15,000 steps a day, the
biochemical pathology can
lead to devastating foot
problems. There are three
phases of one's gait: heel
contact (rigid foot), mid-
stance (mobile adaptor
foot), and push-off (rigid foot
again).

If the arch collapses dur-
ing mid-stance, the foot is
flexible when it should be
rigid. This can lead to bun-
ions, hammertoes, heel
pain, and more. The best

way to prevent the oblitera-
tion of the space is to put a
spacer or stent in the sinus
tarsi. I have been using this
new technology In my prac-
tice. It is done at a local
hospital in day surgery. The
patient is back in shoes or
sneakers in a week.

Check out www.hyprcure.
com. You will see a detailed,
easy-to-understand expla-
nation of this wonderful new
procedure. Ankle, knee, hip,
and back problems are also
greatly relieved when the
foot is properly aligned. Ear-
ly morning, night and daily
appointments are available
by calling 781-986-3668. All
patients are welcome. Our
offices are located at Milton
Medical Building, Suite 221 ;
the Randolph Medical Office
Building, 999 North Main St. ;
and Quincy Medical Center.

Mayor Visits

Sacred Heart School's

New Peace Garden

Mayor Thomas Koch re-
ceniiy made a special visit to
Sacred Heart School to view
and learn about the newly
created Peace Garden. Mid-
dle school students gave the
Mayor a tour, explaining the
meaning of each section.

Julie Young, middle
schcKjl science teacher, gave
a speech on the lessons
learned in the creation of the
garden, from evolution to
the creation of life. Several
students shared essays about
what the garden meant to
them.

The Peace Garden sur-
rounds the memorial tree
for former student Leanne
Neenan. What started as
a small action of hanging
an ornament on the tree in
memory of a loved one, has
turned into a very personal

endeavor for the students.
"With determination and
hard work, the students have
transformed this area into a
beautiful place of peace and
tranquility," said Katherine
Hunter, Principal.

The idea of the Peace
Garden began last February.
As eighth graders watched
plants grow in the class-
room, a desire grew in the
class to leave something to
the school by which to re-
member them.

"I am so proud of the
teamwork you have shown,"
said Ms. Juli; Young. "So
much of your sweat and
tears went into making this
special place, and each of
you can be proud that you
did it all the old-fashioned
way." Making this garden
was an effective tool to

They also built an irrigation

Mayor Koch, a gradu-
ate of Sacred Heart School ,
said, "You can get closer to
God when you work with

God's Earth. As having for-
merly worked in the Qumcy
Parks Department, 1 can tru-
ly appreciate what you have
created here. One can see
the pride you took to make
such a spiritual place."

Many hands went into
the making of this garden.

ing a raised flower bed and

plants and vegetables. Pre-K

titled "The Lives of Dar-
furi Women" will be shown
Monday, Aug. 10 at 7 p.m.
at the Thomas Crane Public
Library, 40 Washington St.,
Quincy.

The conflict in Darfur
has led to the displacement
of three million people and
hundreds of thousands in ci-
vilian deaths.

In November, 2008, Phy-
sicians for Human Rights
and the Harvard Humani-
tarian Initiative sent a team
of four experts to gather an
in-depth picture of the lives
and concerns of Darfuri
women now living in the
Farchana Refugee Camp

in Eastern Chad. Some 88
Darfuri women spoke can-
didly and openly about their
lives in Darfur, the horrific
attacks that drove them from
their villages, their harrow-
ing flight to Chad, and the
struggles of their daily lives
in camp.

Research team mem-
ber Dr. Lin Piwowarczyk
of Milton and fellow team
member Dr. Sondra Crosby
will share their research
findings and personal reflec-
tions during the slide show.

years.

Fr. McCarthy was a well
known activist and advocate

Fr. McCarthy was honored
as The Quincy Sun's Citi-
zen of the Year and in 2004
he received the first Rabbi
Jacob Mann Social Service

trict Court. His real satisfac-
tion and enjoyment was in
helping others.

late Mary K. Perrone and
the late Rev. John J. McCa-

'There For The Grace Of God Go All Of Us

{The following article
was written by the Rev.
William McCarthy on the
occasion of the 50th anni-
versary of his ordination
and half century of devotion
to the poor, the hungry and
the homeless. The article
first appeared in a Quincy
Sun special supplement pu-
blished April 4 , 2002 .)

Working with the home-
less brings a great deal of
satisfaction, but also some
sorrow.

Seeing people regain their
self respect and dignity is
worthy as any sacrifice that
one can make. But seeing
some that do not wish to re-
solve their lives to start over
requires some patience.

Since we were esta-
blished as an Interfaith
Shelter we have an oppor-
tunity to express our ideals
and virtues according to the
law and counsel of the Lord.
This gives us a chance to
exercise what the Lord re-
quires. "Blessed is the one
who is considerate to the
needy and poor. Generous is
the one who is merciful and
lends."

No time of day should be
interruption in our duty for
the less fortunate. We should
not say, "Come back and I
will give you something to-
morrow." Generosity is one
thing that cannot admit to
delay.

What could be more

uplifting than to share our
bread with the hungry and
bring support to the needy
and provide housing for the
homeless with a joyful and
eager heart? The grace of a
good deed is doubled when
it is done with promptness
and speed. What is given
with bad grace or against
one's will is distasteful and
far from praiseworthy.

When we perform an act
of kindess we should rejoin-
ce and not be sad about it. We
may ask ourselves the ques-
tion, do we do this act with
hesitation and grumbling? If
we do so we are in danger,
sacrificing self satisfaction
and a feeling of doing some-
thing worthwhile.

Let us exercise Christian
charity whenever we are gi-
ven an opportunity to help
the poor and those today
who are homeless, so when
we leave this world we will
be received by Christ into an
everlasting dwelling place.

These words which we
have first expressed are one
of the reasons that we are
involved with the homeless.
We must be sensitive that
we often are serving those
who have experienced set-
backs which we have not
personally confronted.

Homeless people are not
only those we see on the
street, alleyways and village
greens, but also people who
had professional and high

paying jobs in the commu-
nity, such as doctors, engi-
neers, lawyers, bankers, etc.

We don't criticize these
people until we have walked
in their shoes. "There for the
grace of God go all of us."

From time to time we
have helped out people and
we have been advised by
others that they are unwor-
thy to receive any help
because they will use the
money to obtain liquor. Let
God be the judge of that. It
is a worthwhile experience
when after years a person
that you may of help out co-
mes to you and shows gra-
titude by repaying what you
have given them and says,
"When I was alone and out.

you were there for me."

This is the reason for
a place like Father Bill's
Place: to serve people who
need a helping hand from
time to time.

We are grateful to the
many within our communi-
ty - the volunteers and those
who have given donations
such as food and clothing
and those who have helped
us financially. They have
made Father Bill's Place
possible.

It is not any one person
who has made this possible,
but so many beautiful peo-
ple who have given of their
time, talent, treasure - and
with their heart - to make
our dream possible.

Fr. William McCarthy: 'The Good Shepherd'

Com 'd From Piii^e I

Church, 44 School St.,
Quincy Center.

'"With the passing of Fr.
William McCarthy, it marks
the end of an era."" said the
Rev. Richard Cannon, pas-
tor at Saint John"s Church.
"He touched many lives
at St. .John's, in the City of
Quincy and beyond. He was
an extraordinary priest and
shepherd who will be surely
missed. We all lo.^t a good
friend.""

Fr. .McCarthy shunned
the spotlight, and it seemed
whenever he was publicly
recognized as a "gentle
shepherd," he would deflect
the praise to others.

"In establishing Father
Bill's Place. I had a lot of
help and a lot of that help
is here tonight because
without your help and sup-
port, this place couldn't be
established," he told more
than 700 guests at the dinner
marking his 45th anniversa-
ry of his ordination in 1997.

"Everything which I have
asked for, you have been
there to support me and give
of yourselves."

Fr. McCarthy was also
fond of saying "only true
happiness comes from
squandering ourselves in a
purpose. When we look at
what we want and then com-
pare that with what we have,
we shall be unhappy. When
we think of what we de-
serve, then of what we have,
we certainly thank God."

Over the years, Fr. Mc-
Carthy was honored for his
many years of dedication
to helping the poor, hungry,
the homeless and all others
in need.

In 1994, The Quincy Sun
recognized Fr. McCarthy as
its Citizen of the Year. When
informed of his selection by
good friend and former Sun
publisher Henry Bosworth,
Fr. McCarthy replied, "It is
a great honor but I feel un-
worthy."

However, it was a truly
fitting honor.

Fr. McCarthy was nomi-
nated for the award by Rev.
Cornelius Heery, former pas-

tor of Sacred Heart Church.
In his nomination, Fr. Heery
cited him for "his great sen-
sitivity for the poor. Fr. Mc-
Carthy is a gentle shepherd
who fortunately does not
know how to say 'no,' espe-
cially to the poor.""

Fr. McCarthy was also
nominated by Deanna
Garzarian. a trustee at the
Woodward School in Quin-
cy. "for all the good he
has done for people of all
faiths.""

At the ceremony hont)r-
ing Fr. McCarthy on March
26. I99.'S. Fr. Heery praised
McCarthy tor "capturing the
message tiicked away in the
Gospel of Matthew in the
23rd chapter. "1 was hungry
and you gave me something
to eat. 1 was thirsty and you
gave me something to drink,
1 was naked and you clothed
me.'

"Fr. McCarthy has made
that a creed of his life ... 1
know he deserves this honor
for he lives the Gospel."

Fr. Heery, who also
served as vicar of the Quin-
cy catholic parishes, died
Jan. 12, 1996.

Fr. Peter Quinn, who suc-
ceeded Fr. McCarthy as pas-
tor, said at the Sun ceremony
honoring Fr. Bill: "He has
eased the anguish and suf-
fering of countless people
who were in physical, finan-
cial, spiritual or emotional
need. He has touched many,
many people."

Local officials, clergy
and friends offered these
tributes to Fr. McCarthy.

"Fr. Bill McCarthy had
a quick smile, and always
called me by name," recalled
Fr. John O'Brien, pastor of
Sacred Heart Church. "He
was a great example for the
priests of our Archdiocese.

"The poor and the home-
less knew that they had a
friend and an advocate in
the person of Fr. Bill. Our
best tribute to Fr. Bill Mc-
Carthy is to make sure that
his work continues."

Mayor Thomas Koch
said "Father Bill's entire life
embodied the Lord's mes-
sage: 'Whatever you did

for one of these least broth-
ers of mine, you did for me.
He rightfully earned a na-
tional reputation for his tire-
less work on behalf of the
homeless, but many of us in
Quincy will also remember
him as the beloved pastor of
Saint John's Church for so
many years.

"He will be missed," the
mayor said, "but his legacy
of faith, love and helping
others will without a ques-
tion live on forever."

Cong. William Dela-
hunt said Fr. McCauley
"will be sorely missed. He
was a wonderful friend
and someone who repre-
sented Christian values. He
not only preached them. 1
mentioned to his nephew
the day before he died that
even when he passed on, his
job wasn't done. We are all
counting of him to get us to
Heaven."

John Yazwinski, the
CEO of Father Bill's Place
and MainSpring, called Fr.
Bill "The People's Priest."

"I had the pleasure of
working side-by-side with
Rev. William "Father Bill"
McCarthy for the past 13
years. What I realized right
away was that he was the
people's priest. He was al-
ways true to the mission of
God, and never let political

pressure for an unpopular
issue influence his path, his
beliefs or his faith.

"He was someone who
taught a communit) how
to "love they neighbor" and
take care of a person when
they are strugglmg. He
never judged the individual
and believed in people, even
when they didn't believe in
themselves.

"He showed me the kind
of courage a person needs
to care for everyone who
comes to your door. He
taught us that when faced
with great challenges, our
belief in God"s work will
move us forward even when
we find ourselves without
the resources and answ ers to
the crisis.

"When the only teen shel-
ter on the South Shore was
threatened with extinction,""
Yazwinski continued, "he
miracously raised the funds
in one week to keep it open.
There was another house he
saved from closing whose
members had fled domestic
violence. These are just few
of many examples.

"Though the years, thou-
sands of people have been
assisted by Father Bill's
Place because he never took
'no' for an answer. Now
he has been called home,
we must remember how he

Former Quincy .Mayor

al loss."" He recalled how he

Tobin said one da)
while he was mayor, the
then Cong. Brian Donnellx
called him at Cit\ Hall and
said he needed a favor. Don-

Tobin said. "W hat do you

He said he was at St
Gregory's Church in
Dorchester and that Fr Mc-
Carthy was the priest that
married him and confided in
him and said he was going
to be transferred to Quincy.

So Tobin called former

Sheila Mclntyre. an-

daily during the acciden-
tal death of her 19-year-old
son Bill and then only nine
weeks later the unexpected
death of her husband, former
Mayor James Mclntyre.

She said she had worked
with a team to find a per-
manent shelter for Fr. Bill's
Place. She said at the time
Gov. Michael Dukakis was
governor. She said after
a couple of phone calls,
prompted by Fr. Bill, they
managed to get the former
Registry of Motor Vehicles
branch office in Quincy.

Mclntyre said when Fr.
Bill wanted something, he
would make up his mind,
find the site and then make
it happen.

She said he is resting
in peace m the "shelter in
heaven."

"I can almost hear he
say, 'Come on, get going for
some fundraiser," Mclntyre
added.

Joseph Finn, former ex-
ecutive director of Father
Bill's Place and now a city
councillor, said the main
thing that "sticks in my
mind" is the immediacy in
terms of responding to the
needs of people, that went
directly to that person at that
time.

"When I first met him,"
Finn said, "Father Bill said
he wanted to 'end the shel-
ter.

"And thought remains
for all of us who survived to
make his dream a reality."

Finn said "stories of his
genersosity and kindness is
something we'll never know
the full extent of."

Former Mayor James
Sheets said when he was
mayor, Fr. McCarthy would
come in and chat and word
around the hall was that

when he left he had what he
came in for.

Whether it was for a new
shelter, or a place for preg-
nant girls, he always got
what he asked for because
he did "wonderful things
that would help the needy.

"Father Bill had a vision
and understanding and is the
reason he was capable of
making things happen."

Sheets said when the late
Tom Flatley and Fr. Mc-
Carthy were together, they
were a "dynamic duo" with
their many legitiate needs
over the long haul.

"He will be missed tre-
mendously, but never for-
gotten for his kindness and
determination," Sheets said.
"Father Bill spread the spiri-
tual gospel as well as the so-
cial gospel with its wings."
Quincy businessman
Peter O'Connell, another
close friend, said: "When I
think of Father Bill, all 1 can
think of is he was always
there for everybody else, and
the little person came first."
O'Connell also mused that
Father Bill is "probably up
there chasing his old friend
Tom Flatley up in Heaven."
Former mayor William
Phelan: "Father married
Tracey and I and christened
our children, Rachael, Bri-
anne, Kerry and William at
St. John's Church. A couple
of years ago. Father came
to our home so that Tracey
and I could renew our wed-
ding vows. Needless to say,
he will be clearly missed by
Tracey and 1 as well as our
children.

"I was fortunate enough
last week to spend time with
Father, say a prayer togeth-
er, receive a blessing and
say goodbye to a friend.

"Father Bill didn't just
quote the Gospel of Mat-

27 locatfiOBift

thew when he said "what-
ever you do for the least of
my children you do for me."
He lived his life according
to it. Father had plenty of
friends in high places but
he always reminded folks
of the Gospel according to
Matthew and helped them to
aspire to the same high ceil-
ing. He always remembered
the little guy.

"My favorite Father Bill
story was when immediate-
ly after christening one of
my children he graciously
accepted a donation to the
church and within two min-
utes of receiving it he was
approached by an individual
down on his luck and he
passed the donation along to
him. No questions asked."

Former Mayor Frank
McCauley said Fr. McCa-
rthy never forgot those less
fortunate than himself.

He said during his time as
mayor, when Fr. McCarthy
was looking for a perma-
nent shelter, he was pleased
to turn over the building on
Broad Street that was the
former Registry of Motor
Vehicles branch office for
the use of a permanent shel-
ter facility.

McCauley said his "sym-
pathy goes out to his fam-
ily"

Ward 2 Councillor Dan
Raymondi called Fr. Mc-
Carthy "a great guy". He
said he had known Fr. Mc-
Carthy since he first came to
Saint John's because that he
is where he attends Mass.

Raymondi said the City
of Quincy is blessed by a
number of outstanding faith
community leaders, and Fr.
Bill was one of those.

He said he was a "spiritu-
al leader who had a tremen-
dous capacity to help those
in need."

A Strong Voice Always
For Those In Need

{The following story first
appeared in Fr. Bill's Gold-
en Jubilee, a special Quincy
Sun supplement published
April 4, 2(X)2, celebrating
Fr William McCarthy 's 50th
anniversary of his ordina-
tion.)

When William McCarthy
graduated from Peabody ju-
nior high school in 1941 , his
teachers made him Master
of Ceremonies because he
had the strongest voice in
class.

Little did they know then
how appropriate their selec-
tion truly was. For years to
come Bill McCarthy would
be a strong and clear voice
of thousands of people who,
for whatever reason, lacked
a voice of their own. The
poor, the homeless and the
people in need could always
find a voice of comfort, as-
surance and challenge in the
simple priest who made hu-
man beings the focus of his
life and ministry.

In reality. Father Bill is
a man of few words, but is
actions speak volumes. Al-
though he had always re-
ceived accolades as a parish
priest, what seemed most
remarkable was is commit-
ment to the poor and home-
less. From is days of relo-
cating families in Chelsea
and Dorchester, to his days
in Quincy helping to shel-
ter the homeless or working
with the St. Vincent DePaul
Society, his concern was for

V

Fr. WILLIAM McCARTHY

the unique individual before
him who was in need The
energy and outlook of Fa-
ther Bill gets him involved
in a score of community or-
ganizations.

He was recently re-ap-
pointed a Commissioner of
the Quincy Housing Author-
ity by Mayor William Phel-
an and confirmed by the City
Council where he continues
his role as a strong advocate
for affordable housing.

He has been an active
board member with man y
charitable and civic organi-
zations, among them:

Quincy Teen Mothers,
the Mayor's Commission
on the Family, My Brother's
Keeper, Friends of the Un-
born, Quincy Community
Action, South Shore Council
on Alcoholism, the Ameri-
can Red Cross, the Cancer
Society, Granite Place, the
Woodward School and as
spiritual director of the Fa-
tima Apostolate.

A longtime friend and
parishioner, Ed Martin says:
"There are few people in the
parish and beyond that Fa-
ther Bill hasn't touched with
his kindness and support."

The stories are legend -
the woman with five small
kids and a pet dog who rang
the bell at St. John's rectory
late one night asking for Fa-
ther Bill . She had no place to
stay. Father Bill found food
and a motel suite and later
talked a local contractor into
donating a house for her and
her family.. .Parishioners
emerging from Mass at St.
John's Church one morn-
ing, a few years back, were
stunned to see Father Bill
standing in the middle of
School Street direcfing the
movement of the house onto
church property. The house
would eventually provide a
rooming house for formerly
homeless women.

Sharing time, the will-
ingness to listen, the ability
to find the best in human
beings regardless of their
circumstances, all are great
gifts in a world seriously
in danger of losing its soul.
These are the gifts Father
Bill gives day in and day
out. sometimes at great per-
sonal cost to himself. Those
who encounter these gifts or
have been the beneficiary of
is attention often cannot help
but feel that they have stood
in the presence of some far
greater myster)'.

Feb. 1,1977 -Feb. 1,1995

Fr. Bill's 18 Years As
Pastor Of Saint John's

{Fr. William McCarthy
wrote this article summing
up his 18 years as pastor
of Saint John the Baptist
Church. The article ap-
peared in a special Quincy
Sun supplement celebrat-
ing his 50 years as a priest
which was published April
4. 2002.)

This is to sum up the 18-
year term of the Pastorate of
Rev. William R. McCarthy.

Seeing the need of a larg-
er gathering place for pa-
rishioners and also for more
accessibility, after consult-
ing with the Parish Council
it was decided to use a por-
tion of the lower church. We
left the chapel , and used the
remaining as a parish hall.
This was because it was less
costly of various proposals.
This work was done in the
fall of 1977 and completed
Jan. 1978.

Bingo was introduced in
Jan. 1978 to help in obtain-
ing additional revenue for
the parish. Bingo was dis-
confinued Jan. 1994.

We introduced giving
consolation booklets to the
families who lost a loved
one. We also tried to visit all
families on the occasion of
death.

In 1977, it was necessary
to reinforce the foundation
in the church because the
floor was sinking.

In 1979 we began the
R.C.I A. program for those
interested in the Catholic
Church which is still con-
tinuing.

To make the upper and
lower church more acces-
sible, an elevator was in-
stalled in 1982.

In 1987, we refurbished
the heating systems in the
school, church, and rectory.
We converted over to gas
at that time. Air condition-
ing was installed in the up-
per church. This was due
to large amount of money
($200,000) that we received
in a will to take care of the
expenses of this renovation.

In 1977 the St. Anthony's
Festival began by Father Dan

Graham and continued for
20 years. It grew with more
and more booths and went
from one day to two days.
The Mass for St. Anthony's
Festival was celebrated dur-
ing these years by Cardinal
Umberto Medeiros, Cardi-
nal Bernard Law, Most Rev.
Joseph Rocco, Most Rev.
Thomas Daily, Most Rev.
Roberto Gongalez, Most
Rev. Robert Banks, and
Most Rev. Alfred Hughes.

From 1978 to 1982 ren-
dered service on the Quincy
Housing Authority. At this
time because of the many
who had come for housing
or a temporary place to stay,
we became interested in es-
tablishing a place for people
who were homeless.

In 1984 we provided 20
beds in a basement of the
school for homeless men
until April 1985. From that
time on various temporary
shelters were established.

As part of the Massa-
chusetts Recovery Plan,
Governor Deval Patrick
has announced a First-Time
Homebuyer Tax Credit
Loan Program through
MassHousing that will al-
low first-time homebuyers
to borrow up to $8,000 in
advance of their federal tax
credit for homes purchased
with a MassHousing loan
before Dec. 1.

"These loans will both
help prospective homebuy-
ers achieve the comfort and
stability of homeownership
for their families, and also
stimulate the Common-
wealth's economy through
increased home sales, while
reviving neighborhoods im-
pacted by foreclosure," Gov.
Patrick said.

"Monetizing the First-
Time Homebuyer Tax Cred-
it will be a great help, and
further incentive, for Mas-
sachusetts residents who are
considering buying their first
home," said Lt. Gov. Timo-
thy P. Murray, chgairman of
the Interagency Council on
Housing and Homelessness.
"This is just one example of
the innovative way we can
work together to promote
homeownership and com-
munity development."

The First-Time Home-
buyer Tax Credit Loan will
allow Massachusetts home-
buyers to use the $8,000 tax
credit from the federal Hous-
ing and Economic Recovery
Act (HERA) of 2008 as a
funding source at the time
of closing to help purchase
the home. Under HERA, the
maximum available credit is
$8,000 and is claimed when

homebuyers file their 2009
federal tax return.

"It's an amazing oppor-
tunity for first-time home-
buyers like myself," said
Thomas Gusha, who bought
a home in Worcester and
will be seeking the first-
time homebuyer federal
tax credit. "This Tax Credit
Loan will be a great benefit
for homebuyers because it
will give them more money
up front when they purchase
their home and this will
hopefully encourage more
people to buy a home."

Homebuyers who take
advantage of the program
will have the principal and
interest payments on the tax
credit loan deferred from the
time of closing until the loan
due date of June 1,2010. If
the loan is not repaid in full
by June 1, 2010, the loan
will be amortized for 10
years at the same interest
rate as their first mortgage
loan.

"The Tax Credit Loan
will be of great benefit to
homebuyers, realtors and
MassHousing-approved
lenders, and we applaud the
Patrick-Murray adminis-
tration for its leadership in
promoting affordable hom-
eownership opportunities in
Massachusetts," said Mass-
Housing Executive Director
Thomas R. Gleason.

Qualifications for the
First-Time Homebuyer Tax
Credit Loan include:

• Applicants must be
first-time homebuyers using
a MassHousing mortgage
through a MassHousing-
approved lender.

• Homebuyers must use

the home as a principal
residence for a minimum of
three years (the Tax Credit
Loan cannot be used for in-
vestor properties).

• Homebuyers must pur-
chase a one, two, three or
four-family home from a

year," said Senator Edward
Kennedy.

"It's a vital step in stimu-
lating the local economy
more quickly and reversing
the negative impact of fore-
closures on communities. I
commend the Governor for

seller unrelated to the buyer his important initiative."

15-0 Loss To Clinton

Militia Knocked From The
Ranks Of The Unbeaten

Thursday, July 30, 2009 The Qixincy Siin Page 21

KAXX.XXXXXXXXXaXXX<><X><X><<><XX><X><X^^^

By JOE REARDON

CLINTON - With a 2-0
record, it was the Quincy
Mihtia's intent to go onto
Fuller Field Saturday night
and make a statement that
the team could not be over-
looked in the Eastern Foot-
ball League by the Clinton
Irish Blizzard.

The Militia did in fact
slow the Irish Blizzard of-
fense, holding Clinton
scoreless in the second half.
Quincy, though, simply
could not produce from the
red zone and came away
with a bitter 15-0 loss as
Clinton remained perfect at
3-0.

The defeat knocked the
Militia from the unbeaten
ranks in the Eastern Football
League heading into Satur-
day's contest on the road
against defending champion
Charlestown.

"This in my eyes is the
most powerful team in the
league," said Militia head
coach Vaughn Driscoll.
"They got 15 (points) in
the first half and that was
it. Four times inside the red
zone. Against a team like
that you have to utilize it.

"This was our wake-up
call."

Quincy 's Wilfred Cadet
gave the Militia prime field
position on the opening
kickoff of the game, break-
ing a tackle and bolting 63
yards to the Clinton 27-yard
line. But a swarming Irish
Blizzard defense and a Mili-
tia penalty stalled Quincy.

Clinton scored on its first
possession as quarterback
John Riccio connected on
passes of 38 and 12 yards
before hooking up with
tight end Ernie Adams for a
4-yard score. Jamie Caims
drilled the point-after kick
and it was 7-0 with 5:57 left
in the opening quarter.

The Irish Blizzard was
able to find the holes in
Quincy 's defense on its next

drive and drove 95 yards on
eight plays. Running back
Scott Allard busted in from
the 5 and Chris LeBlanc
scored on a botched snap
for a 15-0 lead with 13:56
remaining in the half.

Quincy quarterback Matt
Boyle connected on three
passes for 33 yards on the
Militia's next possession but
was forced to punt after a
costly delay of game penalty
and Adams' sack of Boyle at
the Quincy 44-yard line.

Clinton looked to be
on the verge of putting an-
other score into the Militia
end zone as Riccio started
to make a habit of finding
the openings in Quincy s
secondary. Defensive back
Domenique Milton made a
huge play, stuffing the drive
and giving the Militia a
much-needed lift in the pro-
cess, when he intercepted a
Riccio pass at the 22-yard
line with 4:16 left in the
half.

The defensive backfield
continued to make plays for
Quincy in the closing min-
utes with Clinton looking
to put the Militia in a huge
hole before the break. Riccio
connected on three consecu-
tive passes for 37 yards and
a first down at the Quincy
13-yard line with just over
a minute remaining. The
driven ended there when
defensive back Wail Askfa
killed the Irish Blizzard's
final scoring chance of the

half with an interception.

The somewhat spotty
defense in the first half was
due more to technique than
a lack of effort on Quincy's
part according Driscoll . "We
were reaching (while tack-
ling) instead of wrapping,"
he said.

It was the Militia which
came out flying in the sec-
ond half, led by Milton's
second interception of the
game. Quincy gave Clinton
a different look with A.J.
McLaughlin on the wildcat
offense and he answered
with a 13-yard run on the
Militia's opening play of the
drive to land just inside Irish
Blizzard terntory before
stalling.

Quincy threatened once
again on its very next pos-
session, but despite a runs
of 20 and 14 yards from
McLaughlin, and 12 more
from running back Dolan
Reid, the Militia offense
sputtered after driving 75
yards to the Clinton 5.

The Militia's final threat
of the contest came with just
under eight minutes left.
Faced with a fourth-and-8
from the Clinton 48. Boyle
hit wide receiver Kyle Walk-
er with a big 18-yard pass.
Two plays later Boyle con-
nected again, this time for
16 yards to tight end Alex
Perrone for a first down at
the Irish Blizzard's 12.

Quincy couldn't push it
in from the 7-yard line as
Reid fought to the 4 on a
fourth down sweep.

Notes: The Militia are
scheduled to travel to
Charlestown High School to
play a EFL road game ver-
sus the Charlestown Town-
ies on Saturday at 7 p.m.
The team's next home game
is scheduled for Saturday,
August 8 at 7 p.m. against
the Bridgewater Gladiators
at Veterans Memorial Sta-
dium.

game against the Brockton Bucs at Veterans Memorial Stadium. The Militia dropped its first
EFL game of the summer last Saturday against the Clinton Irish BUzzard, 15-0. The team's

record stands at 2-1 overall.

Team To Play for MA State Title This Week

QYB 14-Under Wins State
Sectional Championship

Quincy Youth Base-
ball's 14-Under All-Star
team, fresh off their cham-
pionship in the District 8
playoffs, came back to win
two straight games against
Aubum out of the loser's
bracket of the Massachu-
setts South Sectional Junior
League to capture the MA
South Sectional (13 & 14-
year old) Championship.

Last Friday, Quincy trav-
eled to Aubum having to
defeat the previously un-
defeated Auburn 14-Under
All-Stars twice in one night,
on Auburn's home field, to
win the Sectional title.

In Game One, Rudy Try-
on, Pat Verhault, Mike Gal-
lotto and Tom McDonald,
the first four batters in the
Quincy lineup, singled to
give the team a 3-0 first in-
ning advantage. That cush-
ion proved to be more than
enough for Tom McDonald,
the team's staff ace, who
scattered seven hits, struck
out six batters and allowed
only two runs to earn the
victory on the mound.

In the top of the fourth
Quincy added two insurance
runs. Josh Hay ward singled;
pinch runner Andrew Cur-
rie stole second, advanced
to third on a sacrifice bunt
from Jason Pekkinen and
later scored on a Matt Davis
sacrifice fly. Dan Cobban,
with two outs, singled to left
and scored when Tryon and

Verhault followed with hits.

Aubum would score one
run in the third and a run
in the sixth, but it was not
enough as Quincy won 5-2
to force a deciding Game
Two.

After a 20-minute break.
Game Two got underway
and Quincy 's Andrew Jaeh-
nig, after allowing a first-
inning run, pitched master-
fully.

The Quincy offense gave
Jaehnig all the support he
would need with a six-run
third inning. Jaehnig walked
to start the rally; Tryon
walked; Verhault singled,
scoring Jaehnig and tying
the game at 1-1; Gal lotto
walked to force in a run;
with one out. Josh Hay ward
singled and scored two runs
and Quincy tacked on two
more runs on a wild pitch.

With a 6-1 lead entering
the bottom of the fourth in-
ning, Quincy allowed four
unearned runs, allowing
Aubum to pull within a run
(6-5). After shutting down
Aubum in the fifth inning,
Quincy added an insurance
run in the top of the sixth
when Dan Cobban singled
and moved to second on
a sacrifice bunt by Currie.
Two walks and a hit bats-
man later, Quincy scored
their seventh run.

In the top of the seventh
inning after a 15-minute rain
delay, Quincy's Rudy Tryon

doubled and Verhault (two
hits) singled to score him
making the score 10-5. Au-
bum cut the lead to 10-8 in
the bottom of the seventh,
but a great defensive play by
right fielder Tom McDonald
ended the game and Quincy
was crowned State Sectional
Champions.

Quincy, which earned
their ticket to the South
Sectionals by winning the
District 8 title, started Sec-
tional play with a 8-3 vic-
tory over Seekonk. Mike
Gallotto (three hits, three
RBI), David Joyce (two hits,
two RBI), Rudy Tryon (two
hits), Andrew Currie and
Matt Davis were the offen-
sive stars.

Tom McDonald struck
out nine batters to earn the
victory.

Quincy followed this
win by dropping a 4-2 game
to Aubum but the team
bounced back with a 9-3
win over Southampton, MA
as they scored five runs in
the first inning. Joyce and
Verhault had multiple hit
games and Gallotto pitched
a strong game to earn the
win on the hill.

Quincy now faces North
Reading for the MA State
Championship in a best two-
out-of- three series, which
was held at LeLacheur Park
in Lowell on Monday.

10-3 Loss To New Bedford

Morrisette's Playoff Run
Ends In AL South Sectionals

By SEAN BRENNAN

A 10-3 loss to New Bed-
ford Legion last Wednes-
day afternoon in the loser's
bracket of Bracket B in the
American Legion South
Secfionals ended Morrisette
Legion's season.

Morrisette, which had ad-
vanced to the AL South Sec-
tionals following a 2-1 series
win over Norwood Legion
in the District 6 playoffs,
had upset New Bedford, the
top-seed in Bracket B, 10-9
two Sundays ago, but this
time around, with the season
in the balance, the team ran
out of baseball magic.

New Bedford Legion
went on to defeat Foxboro
Legion two straight times to
advance to the MA Ameri-
can Legion playoffs.

Morrisette 's Ryan Louis
(five plus innings) started the
game on the mound. Ricky
Salvucci (two innings) and
Ben Leahy (inning) came
in the game in relief. New

Bedford scored twice in the
fourth inning, twice in the
fifth and three times in the
sixth to break what had been
a 1-1 game wide open. New
Bedford expanded that lead
to 10-1 in the bottom of the
eighth inning.

Morristte scored twice
more in the top of the ninth.
Kevin Magoon reached base
on a two-out single that
scored John Ainsley and
Greg Nelson, but the game
and any chance of a late-
comeback ended when Alex
Tragellis lined out to third
base.

"We had a good season
and scrapped all the way to
the South Sectionals," said
Morrisette's Bill Marchand.
"No one, besides the players
and coaches in that dugout,
believed we would make it

this far. But we believed in
ourselves, worked hard and
had a nice season.

"We had a good mix of
younger and older players
and we did a lot of mixing
and matching to get to where
we got. The team should be
proud of what they accom-
plished this season."

Morrisette will need to
replace at least four every-
day players on its roster
next season. Those four are
Ricky Salvucci, Joe Vial-
pando, Alex Tragellis and
Ben Leahy.

"We have players who are
going to be too old to play
Legion ball next year, and
we have some players who
may or may not be back.
But we have talent coming
back and there is some great
talent that will be eligible
to play for us next year. We
will have to see how it plays
out next spring," added
Marchand.

Rash Of Car Breaks

Throughout the city, there
have been an unusually high
number of breaks into cars,
mostly at night.

Most of the breaks have
been into unlocked vehicles
either in the driveway of
individual homes or in the
street in front of the owner's
homes. There are multiple
car breaks on the same
street or adjoining streets.
In many cases, cash, credit
cards and small items have

been taken.

There are very few actual
cases where signs of force
have been used to gain ac-
cess into the cars. We ask
that all citizens be watchful
of anyone acting suspicious
in their neighborhood and
call the Police Department
before a crime occurs.

Let us check them out -
they may be legitimate or
they could be known for this
type of activity.

A Job Well Done

On Sunday, July 19 at approximately 8:35 p.m . De-
tectives Keenan and O'Brien of the Quincv Police Drug
Control Unit were workmg on
a case, based on reliable infor

cy Shore Drive Fhe suspect

firearm.

The detectives were met

tives Ward, Coen. Ryan and
Duran. who had set up sur-
veillance At 8:35 p.m., the
suspect pulled into the CVS
parking lot.

The surveillance team observed the driver and sole
occupant to be drinking from an open bottle of liquor
The suspect then parked his vehicle in the middle of the
CVS lot and waited. After a few moments, the detectives
made their move (jn the suspect's vehicle

Detective Ward parked in the spot in front of the sus-
pect as Detective Coen attempted to park next to De-
tective Ward's vehicle. Detectives Barkas. Duran and
Ryan approached on foot to the dnvers side door (and
open w indow) with their police badges displayed and an-
nounced ""Quincy Police."

The suspect looked directly at the three detec-
tives with their badges displayed and his eyes opened
wide when he realized they were the police The suspect

was exiting his car, pushing him backwards 15 to 20 feet
As this was going on. Detective Ryan attempted to stop

tective Ryan lost his gnp and his baton fell into the sus-
pect's vehicle. The suspect then fled the parking lot at a
high speed, heading south on Quincy Shore Dnve. while

hicle and fled from the Police Detective Coen estimat-
ed that the suspect reached speeds of over 80 MPH as

low line several times into oncoming traffic with com-
plete disregard for public safety. Detective Coen informed

istration, the direction of travel, that he could be armed

Burned By Sun-Protection Factors Of 100 Or More?

Cooking
for One

Cooking for one (or
even for just two people)
can be a chore, and too
often we opt to take the
take easy way out. Maybe
we'll load the grocery cart
with microwave dinners,
or we'll just have cereal
for dinner.

Our reasons are valid
ones: Packages are too big,
and we often waste food
because we don't eat it
before it goes bad. It takes

egg omelet, such as left-
over meat, vegetables and
cheese.

• If you have nearby
friends in your situation,
consider banding together
to prepare group meals
a few days a week. You
won't have to cook ev-
ery day - and you'll have
company while you eat.

• Make a big tray of la-
sagna or a one-dish chick-
en casserole, and freeze the
rest in meal-size portions.

• Experiment! Try
something new. Librar-
ies have cookbooks with

Public Health, on the newest
products touting very high
SPFs.

"It's dangerous to rely on
numbers alone since SPF is
only part of the story."

Current sunscreen ma-
nufacturers are required
only to label products for
the amount of UVB protec-
tion they provide. UVB is
ultraviolet (UV) light which
commonly causes sun tan-
ning and bums. Reizner says
the SPF number does not
make clear if it also blocks
UVA, light that penetrates
deeper into the skin.

Both UVA and UVB
cause skin aging and can
lead to skin cancer Newer

products do offer "broad
spectrum" protection with
better UVA blocking, but
they still remain less effec-
tive compared to how they
block UVB.

Add to this the increasing
SPF numbers advertised and
the public can be confused.

The Food and Drug Ad-
ministration (FDA) has pro-
posed a four-star rating sys-
tem to tell consumers about
the amount of UVA protec-
tion in each product. The
FDA also is considering a
50 SPF limit on sunscreen
products.

number SPF products is a

too much time to prepare eooking-for-one recipes,
food and then clean up af- ^

terward, and it isn't worth

it for just one person.

Cooking for one
doesn't have to be hard.
Here are some ideas:

• Buy individual por-
tions, even if they cost
more. For example, fro-
zen vegetables come in
one-serving size. Small
cans of vegetables or fruit
contain two servings.
When you consider that
there won't be any waste
at all, it's worth the ex-
tra money. Buy packaged
frozen chicken breasts or
fish fillets, and only use
what you want.

• Think omelets: There
are so many foods that
can go into a tasty two-

or look online at recipe
sites. Consider getting a
miniature slow cooker.
Load it up in the morning
with your ingredients , plug
it in and by dinner time,
you can have a delicious
meal all ready to eat.

We owe it to ourselves
to stay as healthy as pos-
sible, and a good part of
that is to eat as well as we
can.

Teeth that are chipped, dis-

easy repair known as looth
txxKJing." This (X)smetic tech-
nique involves the use of a
composite resin that the dentist
uses to coat and reshape tooth
surfaces, much in the way ttiat
a sculptor might use sculpt-
ing day. Bonding can be used
to lighten stains (by covering
them), dose minor gaps be-
tween teeth, and correct mod-
erately misshapen teeth. Once
the resin is applied to ttie tooth
surface, it is hardened with a
high-intensity light. Then, the
dentist sculpts the hardened
resin and polishes it. The resul-
tant restoration matches sur-
rounding teeth in terms of both
color and form. In nearly all
cases, tooth bonding involves a

If gardening is considered an Gardening can be enjoyable,

activity that is as strenuous and
healthy as walking and jogging,
it stands to reason that gardeners
face the same risk of injury
that walkers and joggers do.
Accordingly, gardeners should
approach their hobby with the
same amount of care that other
types of exercisers do, if not
more so. Aside from wanning
up a bit prior to heading into
the flower beds or vegetable
garden, gardeners should pay
close attention to equipment and
technique. For instance, because
weeding can be especially
hard on the back, gardeners
should be sure to take regular
breaks from their hunched-over
positions and perform this task
while kneeling on knee pads or
a cushioned mat.

muscles t)efore reaching for your

Number, Type

of Polyps

Determine

Next Exam

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
Will you talk about colon pol-
yps? I had polyps removed
during a colonoscopy. My
doctor recommends another
colonoscopy in three years. I
have retired, and my insurer
has declined to cover my co-
lon because I had something
removed from it. I will have
to pay for the colonoscopy.
When I was working, the
insurance company insisted
on colon procedures for pre-
ventive care. Please advise.
-A.C.

ANSWER: Polyps are
small growths sprouting from
the lining of many organs. In
the case of colon polyps, some
of them turn into colon cancer.
The problem is that a doctor
looking at the polyp cannot tell
if it has the cancer potential un-
less the polyp is removed and
viewed with a microscope.

More than 150,000 new cas-
es of colon cancer occur yearly
in the United States, and every
year there are more than 50,000
deaths from colon cancer. Co-
lon cancer and colon cancer
death can be eliminated by re-
moving all suspicious polyps.

Guidelines urge everyone
to have a first colonoscopy at
age 50. If a polyp is discovered
that measures more than two-
fifths of an inch, if the polyp
has microscopic evidence of
dangerous changes or if a per-
son has three or more polyps,
that individual is told to have
a repeat colonoscopy in three
years. Otherwise, if all is well,
the next colonoscopy can be
delayed for 10 years.

examination and its follow-up.
Perhaps a telephone call to the

come out of yoiu own pocket.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
What is a man to do for exces-
sive back hair? My husband is
embarrassed to take our girls
(7 and 9) to the town pool be-
cause of his hairy back, and
he is very self-conscious on a
beach as well.

I have offered to shave his
back, but he's worried that
the hair will come back thick-
er. Any suggestions? - L.C.

ANSWER: Yes. Shave your
husband's back for him. The
hair won't grow back thicker.
That's a fable some unknown
person started way tack when.

It's not true.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I
have been getting a monthly
B-12 shot for 20 some years.
I don't know why. Are these
shots necessary? -AS.

ANSWER: They're neces-
sary for people with pernicious
anemia. Those people can't ab-
sorb the vitamin. Twenty-some
years is too long to go without
knowing the reason for your
treatment. It's time you asked
your doctor why you're getting

the shots.

Dr. Donohue regrets that he is
unable to answer individual let-
ters, but he will incorporate them
in his column whenever possible.

''Whatever you do, you need cour-
age. Whatever course you decide upon,
there is always someone to tell you you
are wrong. There are always difficulties
arising which tempt you to believe that
your critics are right . To map a course of
action and follow it to an end, it requires
some of the same courage which a soldier
needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes
brave men to win them." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Each of us, as we go through life, strives to be a winner in
our own way. But it takes courage to be a winner, a winner
at responding to life. It takes courage to accept a friendship
and intimacy with other persons. It takes courage to take a
stand in an unpopular cause. It takes courage to choose reality
over approval. It takes courage to accept the responsibility for
your own chokes and dare to be yourself. New ways are often
uncertain ways and as Robert Frost expressed it: "Courage
is the human \1rtue that counts most - courage to act on lim-
ited knowledge and insufficient evidence. That's all any of us
have."

The great thing about courage is that, when we get the
hang of it, it becomes character. And character, after all, is
the referee of our success as a human being . . .

. TURNING 50
IN 2009

ARIES (March 21 to April

19) Your honesty is, as always,
admirable. But you might want
to be more tactful in discussing
a sensitive issue with a family
member. Remember: You can
give advice without giving of-
fense.

TAURUS (April 20 to May

20) An unexpected workplace
snag should be handled quickly
and efficiently so that it leaves
you time for family get-togeth-
ers. Also, you might soon get
that long-sought apology.

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Aspects favor family mat-
ters, especially where children
might be involved. Spending
time with loved ones helps re-
store some much-needed bal-
ance to your typically busy
schedule.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) That seemingly clear-cut
agreement might not be quite
so straightforward after all. Re-
check for language that could
make you liable for hidden costs
and other unpleasant surprises.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Careful, Kitty. Better to deal
with someone with proven re-
liability than with a big talker
who promises much but can't
confirm that he or she will deliv-
er. Your social life really zings
this weekend.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Your matchmaking skills
are at peak performance levels
both in helping to staff workplace
teams for upcoming projects and
for bringing people together on a
more personal basis.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) You're finally seeing
some progress with your new

venture. But be prepared for
it to confinue at a slower pace
than you're used to. Meanwhile,
a loved one could be preparing
a surprise.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) A family mem-
ber's success pulls you into
the spotlight as well. Enjoy it,
but don't let it overshadow or
otherwise obstruct what you're
doing with your own creative
projects.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Using what
you already know might not be
quite enough to get a proposed
project off the ground. Look for
any new informafion that might
help tilt the scales in your fa-
vor.

CAPRICORN (December
22 to January 19) Good news:
While a changing workplace
environment can be daunfing
for some, it could be the chal-
lenge you've been hoping for. If
so, confiront it with confidence
and move on.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) It's a good time to
recheck travel arrangements for
any changes that could work to
your advantage. Aspects also fa-
vor strengthening and restoring
old, fraying relafionships.

PISCES (February 19 to
March 20) Using your intuirive
reasoning helps you cut right
through the double-talk and go
straight to what's really going
on around you. Stay the course
unfil all your questions are an-
swered.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

radiate light and warmth, and

• * * On The Campaign Trail - City Election 2009 * • *

With the campaign season underway for this fall's city election, The Quincy Sun
will publish, from time to time and when space is available, press releases submit-
ted from candidates and their committees.

The articles are not written by Quincy Sun staff. The Sun retains the right to edit

Past, Present And Future
Of The Quincy School Budget

Phelan Opens Campaign
Headquarters At 70 Quincy Avenue

(The following letter was
submitted for publication
by Rebecca Mc Williams, a
candidate for School Com-
mittee.)

In an effort to educate
Sun readers about the 2010
Quincy School Budget, I've
laid out the historic data and
future implications of the
2010 budget, based on last
year's budget and a conver-
sation with Jim Mullaney,
School Administration Di-
rector of Business Affairs.

Chapter 70 (Ch7Q)Fund-
in^

Last year Quincy was
allocated $20 million from
the MA State Ch 70 Funds.
Unfortunately Ch 70 was
not fully funded and Quincy
only received $16 million
from the State.

This year the State al-
located $20 million for
Quincy 's Ch 70 Funds, but
every city and town in the
Commonwealth took a 1 0%
Ch 70 cut. To make up the
10% difference, the State
sent $1,695,948 in ARRA
funding directly to the
schools instead of the City
of Quincy. Quincy schools
received the same base $16
million as last year's bud-
get. This year, the State was
able to completely fund Ch
70 with a one-time infusion
of $4,308,342 Stabilization
funds to total $20 million.

Next year we will not
have Stabilization funds,
but the State is expected to
fully fund the $20 million
for Ch 70. If there are ad-
ditional cuts, like the 10%
taken out of the 2010 bud-
get, Quincy will receive
less funding.

ARRA Funding:

In 2010 Quincy received
a $1342,314 IDEA Grant.

Next year the IDEA Grant
will be slightly less due to
the State's overhead costs.

The 20 1 0 budget includes
$670,899 for IDEA Title 1 .
50% of this must be spent
on Maintenance of Effort to
prevent layoffs, the rest is
allocated for new programs
and jobs. In addition, Quin-
cy schools received $52,162
for PreK IDEA. Next year
these numbers will be ap-
proximately the same.

City Appropriation:

In 2009, the school
committee approved a
$84,405,229 budget. Of
that, the $3,171,667 Circuit
Breaker for Special Educa-
tion was removed. The final
2009 Appropriation was
$81,083,562: a 3.3% in-
crease from 2008.

This year Quincy 's
schools will receive
$4,308,342 in Stabilization
funds and $2,880,000 from
the Circuit Breaker. Fur-
ther, the school committee
found additional funds with
a one-time increase in user
fees netting $387,000. For
2010, the school commit-
tee approved a $89,330,061
budget, which is a 6% in-
crease from the original $84
million budgeted in 2009
before the Circuit Breaker
cuts. This budget is based
on the re-allocated ARRA
funding. Stimulus funds,
and increased user fees.

In 2011, the ARRA
funds will be slightly less
based on State overhead
costs, but the Circuit
Breaker will be cut by
50-60%, the one-time re-
directed ARRA funds will
be returned to the city,
and user fees cannot be
increased again. Hopefully
the State will fully fund Ch

70 because there will be no
Stabilization funds. With-
out these one-time cash in-
fusions, Quincy stands to
lose $3.5 million from our
school budget in 2011.

The city appropriation
has been typically running
at a 5% increase per year
based on the historic data
from the past 6 years. This
covers automatic increases
like Special Education tu-
ition, raises, and utilities.
The difference between lev-
el-dollars funding and level-
services funding is the cost
of these automatic increas-
es. For example, level-fund-
ing an $81 million budget
from 2009 to 2010 would
fall short because the cost of
oil, natural gas, and electric
service has increased to $87
million for the exact same
services. The implication
on level-service funding is
that losing $3.5 million in
2011 will impact more ser-
vices than it would in 2010
due to cost increases.

Creating the 2010 budget
was a heroic effort on the
part of the School Commit-
tee. Unfortunately without
more educational funding
from the city, our schools
will be in a worse fiscal situ-
ation in 2011. The School
Committee will face much
deeper cuts to teachers and
programs. What can we ex-
pect for our schools if this
continues?

If you value quality edu-
cation in Quincy, contact
your city councillor and the
mayor to commit during this
campaign season to make
funding Quincy 's schools
our top priority.

Hundreds of volunteers
and supporters stopped by
for the Saturday open house
of the Bill Phelan for Mayor
Campaign's new headquar-
ters at 70 Quincy Ave., and
Phelan told them the former
Sovereign Bank site "is a
fitting place from which we
will launch the fight to re-
store our city's fiscal foun-
dation."

Phelan took sharp aim
once again at what he termed
the Koch Administration's
"gross mishandling of
Quincy taxpayers' money"
and addressed the issue of
whether two years in office
is enough time for Mayor
Koch to prove himself.

"Two years was enough
for Mayor Koch to blow
through the $15 million
rainy day fund that the State
Department of Revenue
confirms 1 left him," former
Mayor Phelan said.

"Two years was enough
for Mayor Koch to increase

Quincy's taxes more than
any Mayor in history.

"Two years was enough
for Mayor Koch to increase
Quincy's taxes more than
any city in the state, and
nearly twice as much in one
year as I did in my entire
six-year term." Phelan con-
tinued

"Two years was enough
for him to show that public
schools are not a priont).
and two years were enough
for him to allow our streets
and sidewalks to fall into
disrepair.

"Two years were enough
for him to return the cul-
ture of entitlement to City
Hall, where insiders and the
Mayor himself enjoy spend-
ing tens of thousands of tax-
payer dollars on expensive
rugs and renovations, wide
screen TVs, fancy trucks,
and expensive over-time for
favorites," Phelan said.

"Two years was enough
for Mayor Koch to show his

allegiance is to the insiders,
not our city's taxpayers, and
more time in office will only
make that worse.

"Two years . . was
enough'" he said

"The fact that this head-
quarters used to be a bank
makes it a fitting place
from which we will work
to restore our citv's hscal
foundations, and launch the
campaign to once again put
taxpayers first at Cit\ Hall."
Phelan said.

Phelan vowed to put an
end to Koch's "gross mis-
handling of Quincy taxpa)-
ers' money, restore fiscal
discipline and accountabil-
ity to the city's finances "

Quincy High School
has been approved for a
$300,000 grant from the
Massachusetts Renewable
Energy Trust for a 30-kilo-
watt solar photovoltaic (PV)

array.

QHS is one of 16 K-12
"high performance green
schools" approved for a total
of more than $3 million in
state funds for incorporating
energy- and money-saving
features into new buildings
and additions/renovations.

The PV array is a linked
collecUon of photovoltaic
modules, which are in turn
made of mulfiple intercon-
nected solar cells. The cells
convert solar energy into
direct current electricity via
the photovoltaic effect.

The grant was lauded by
the city's legislative delega-
tion.

Sen. Michael Morrissey,
chairman of the Joint Com-
mittee on .Telecommunica-
fions and Public Uulities.

said the funding is being
awarded to eight additional
schools for solar PV arrays
and to six additional schools
for green school design as-
sistance; one additional
school is being awarded
funding for both green
school design assistance and
a solar PV array.

Manet Health Center
Honors Mariano

By JOE REARDON

Alive and viable.

That's what Representa-
tive Ron Mariano (D-MA)
believes is essential in qual-
ity health care and it starts
with the community health
centers. Mariano was hon-
ored by Quincy's Manet
Community Health Center
Inc., on Tuesday morning
for his leadership in health
care issues and support of
community health care.

"This is something I be-
lieve in." said Mariano. "If
we are going to do anything
in health care it has to start
at the community health
centers. We have to make
sure they're alive and vi-
able. 1 admire the work they
do here. Community health
care is the best treatment for
chronic diseases. Doctors
in an emergency room tend
to over treat to cover their
bases because they aren't
familiar with a patient's case
history.

"We have to let diabet-
ics know if they come in

for their once a month visit
to the health center, they'll
avoid that middle of the
night trip to the emergency
room," he said.

Mariano was presented
with a handsome plaque by
Manet Center Board Presi-
dent Alicia Gardner and
Chief Executive Officer
Henry Tuttle. "He's been an
incredible influence," said
Gardner. "He recognizes the
value of MCHC and does
everything he can on our
behalf."

Founded in 1%9, Manet
Community Health Cen-
ter serves the broad health
needs of South Shore resi-
dents through a family-
practice model of care. It
provided 49254 visits to
13,404 patients last year at
its five locations. The cen-
ter has been accredited by
the Join Commission since
1999. Today, America's
1 200-plus health centers
are "health care homes" for
more than 18 million people
in 7,000 communities.

Mariano, who has served
the Third Norfolk District
since 1992, is the House As-
sistant Majority Leader and
has been key in developing
the state's health care re-
form law. Mariano chaired
the Joint Committee on Fi-
nancial Services, which has
jurisdiction for all banking
and insurance matters.

"Representative Ron
Mariano is a very special
breed of politician," said
Tuttle. "We are all extreme-
ly grateful for his leadership
in health care issues, as well
as for his ongoing interest
in the critical role we play
in the greater Quincy com-
munity."

Gardner pointed out that
the center not only offers
health care for diabetic and
asthmatics, but care manag-
ers work with individuals
through instruction and var-
ious seminars. "It's a very
comprehensive program,"
she said.

If patients don't have
health insurance, outreach

workers will assist with their
insurance needs. There is
also a misconception, Gard-
ner said, that health care
centers are for people with
low income. "The vast ma-
jority of people who come
here have their own insur-
ance," she said.

MCHC, which marks its
30th anniversary this fall,
provides greater access to
affordable quality primary
care for low- and middle-in-
come residents. Patients pay
on an income-based sliding
fee scale. No one is turned
away, regardless of insur-
ance status or ability to pay.
Only about 37% of patients
have private insurance, pay

for medical care out-of-
pocket or are uninsured.

The ceremony kicked off
federally qualified commu-
nity health center's celebra-
tion of National Community
Health Center Week, from
Aug. 9-15. A series of open

members are invited to at-

August, was highly valued by
ancient cultures because it was
believed to free the mind from
envious thoughts. Thus, it was
considered to be an aid to friendship .
Today, this lovely green gemstone
is valued more for its rich color and
brilliance. Peridot also gives hints
of gold, which makes it a beautiful
complement to late-summer
wardrobes. In fact, peridot is one
of the few ^emstones that comes
in only one color, olive green,
which remains the same regardless
of the light. For this reason, it
was nicknamed "emerald of the
evening" by the ancient Romans.
Available in a wide range of faceted
cuts, peridot lends itself

earrings,
brooches, and rings.

Since it is the product of
volcanic activity, peridot is
sometimes combed from the black
sands of Hawaii. Found in other
U.S. states as well as Burma, peridot
is abundant, available in large
sizes, and well suited to today's
contemporary designs. And it looks
particularly well when paired with
diamonds. If you are looking for the
shimmering peridot, you are sure to
be dazzled by August's lovely green
birthstone. Ours are on beautiful
display at 1402 Hancock Street,
Quincy Center, or let us create a
special peridot piece just for you.

MBTA Backs Off
Plan For Large Billboards

Officials from Westwood
to Canton and from Brain-
tree to Quincy voiced their
relief this week when MBTA
officials announced they
were shelving their plan to
install 32 large billboards
in 19 Eastern Massachusetts
communities.

"While we recognize the
MBTA's fiscal troubles, we
believe strongly that bill-
boards would not add to
the quality of life of Quincy
citizens so we respectfully
asked them to reconsider."
Mayor Thomas Koch said
after the MBTA's armounce-
ment.

"We are appreciative that
they have apparently done
so," Koch said. Quincy of-
ficials are currently engaged
in another billboard battle
concerning an 80-ft struc-

ture in West Quincy.

Local officials, also, not-
ed that the city is currently
working to renovate Quincy
Center and most believe that
billboards would add blight.
The reaction was similar in
other cities and towns tar-
geted for the billboards.

After the MBTA's initial
announcement, state law-
makers began considering
new legislation banning the
MBTA from erecting bill-
boards without consulting
local governments.

However, MBTA offi-
cials insisted the agency was
exempt from local statutes
and had reinforcement from
the Supreme Judicial Court
(SJC).

In a case involving Med-
ford and Somerville, the SJC
ruled that the MBTA could

bypass local zoning.

As for Quincy, Koch
believed that the city had
agreements in place prohib-
iting the MBTA from erect-
ing billboards within the
city.

The billboard project was
expected to raise some $3
million in revenues for the
cash-strapped MBTA which
is currently operating with a
$160 million deficit.

THE QUINCY POLICE Department recently teamed up with the 7/i:ie\en Stoii <>ii Adams
Street to promote bicycle safety. Police officers and representati\es from 7/Eleven provided free
sandwiches and gave out coupons for free beverages, hot dogs and doughnuts. Front rfiw (from

to Quincy High School,"
said Rep. Bruce Ayers.

"We are pleased that this
grant will reduce energy
costs for Quincy High and
demonstrates the Common-
wealth's ongoing commit-
ment to renewable energy
and green school design,"
Morrissey said.

"The installation of the
solar array will be a valuable
teaching tool," Ron Mariano
added.

Eight additional schools
were also approved for solar
PV installation funding.

Through the Green

Schools Initiative, the Trust
has made awards to public
school districts for green
building design — including
green design team support
and energy, acoustic, and
daylight modeling — and for
renewable energy system
design and installation.

The initiative has led to
the adoption of state regu-
lations that have required
all new school or major
renovation projects ap-
proved for construction re-
imbursement from the Mas-
sachusetts School Building
Authority (MSBA) after
July 1, 2007 to imple-
ment numerous green de-

sign measures. The MSBA
has provided an additional
funding incentive of up to
two percent of construction
costs for MA-CHPS Veri-
fied high-performance green
schools. High-performance
green school buildings save
an average of 25% in en-
ergy costs over traditional
schools and have supenor
indoor environmental quali-
ties.

"Not only will this give
the students to gain practical
knowledge of green technol-
ogy, but also save Quincy

The Extraordinary Fr. Bill

"->4.

FR. BILL

"An ordinary priest who did extraordinary things."

Those wonderful words spoken by
the Most Rev. John Anthony Dooher
summed up the life and legacy of the
Rev. William F. McCarthy. Most Rev.
Dooher, regional Bishop - South Re-
gion, Archdiocese of Boston, was the
principal celebrant at Fr. McCarthy's
Mass of Christian Burial July 30 at the rev. DOOHER
church he led as pastor for 18 years:
Saint John the Baptist in Quincy Center.

Fr. Dooher also told the estimated 1 ,000 mourners -
including past and present city officials, family, friends
and citizens touched by Fr. Bill's generosity: "We pray
to God and thank God for the gift we received in Fr.
Bill McCarthy."

Rev. McCarthy, better known as Fr.
Bill for his many years of helping the
needy and less fortunate, especially |k ^^1^
the homeless, died July 24 at the age
of 82. He was buried in Saint James
Cemetery in Haverhill.

Some 50 priests and deacons ft"om
throughout the state and region at-
tended the funeral Mass. Among those celebrating Fr.
Bill's life was the Rev. Edward McLean of Hartford,
Conn. Fr. McLean and Fr. Bill were classmates at Saint
John's Seminary and were ordained on Jan. 10, 1952
by the late Richard Cardinal Gushing at the Cathedral
of the Holy Cross in Boston.

Fr. McLean, who is the director of the Catholic In-
formation Center for the Archdiocese in Hartford, CT,
remembered Fr. Bill as a "man of faith and hope."

In a phone interview, Fr. McLean recalled a day in
the summer of 1945 when he and Fr. Bill had a day
off ft-om Seminary School in Brighton and headed to
Hampton Beach in New Hampshire.

"Bill loved Hampton Beach. We are on our way up
to Hampton and there's a pelting rainstorm. It looks
worse and worse. But Bill, with his eyes on the sky,
kept saying 'I see some sun light back there.'"

The Sim never came out.

"But that was Bill," Fr. McLean said. "He was al-
ways encouraging people to keep going. He was a man
of faith and hope despite how dark life can be."

Fr. McLean, who is 82, hadn't seen Fr. Bill since
their ordination 57 years ago. "I never saw him at any
class reunions but I never forgot him," he said.

So, it was perhaps fitting that Fr. McLean drove
from Hartford - through a thunderstorm with pelting
rain - to attend Fr. Bill's Mass.

"It was a great effort for me to come up from Hart-
ford but I knew it was worth it. I did it for Bill."

Then, he added: "I know Fr. Bill's in Heaven. Af-
ter the Mass, a man who looked like he was fi-om the
streets came up to me and said 'Fr. Bill saved my life.
And I hope he's still praying for me to help with my
alcoholism addiction."

Fr. Bill would have been humbled by the turnout at
the Mass and the Rite of Reception held the day be-
fore his funeral inside St. John's. At least 1,000 people
paid their respects as he lay in repose during a Rite of
Reception.

It was a beautiftil tribute for the "people's priesf
who was loved by so many.

While there were notable dignitaries at the Mass,
there were far more common folk who wanted simply
to say goodbye to a dear friend and celebrate a life that
touched so many lives.

Fr. McCarthy was a considered a savior to many
people down-on-their-luck. Like the homeless drug
addict who was so desperate he even plarmed suicide
before Fr. Bill intervened and helped him find assis-
tance at Fr. Bill's Place, the homeless shelter named
for him.

There was also the time a flustered housekeeper

Fr. Bill's Funeral Mass - Pages 16, 17

came running to tell Fr. Bill that a bed and blankets
were missing from the rectory.

He wasn't surprised. He had given them to a needy
family.

If you had ever been in the presence of Fr. Bill, or
have spoken to a good friend or family member, there
are countless stories of his generosity. Stories that will
live on in the hearts of those blessed to have known
him. With Fr. Bill's passing, it's up to his followers to
keep his mission of ending homelessness alive.

It's a mission that Fr. Bill worked faithfully and
tirelessly for more than 25 years.

In 1984, Father Bill's Place, which began as the
Quincy Interfaith Sheltering Coalition, was formed by
Fr. McCarthy and other local clergy, community lead-
ers, and social service professionals. From its early
days of operating in the basement of the Salvation
Army, Father Bill's Place grew to become a communi-
ty-based shelter and social service agency.

The 24-hour shelter that bears his name on Broad
Street opened in 1988. According to shelter staff, last
year alone the emergency shelter served 954 men and
women. Since it first opened its doors to those who
have nowhere else to turn, an estimated 10,000 people
have been accommodated.

Fr. Bill's Place has 105 permanent beds but in the
wintertime, the shelter can serve up to 140 individuals
per night.

There are also four other shelters in the city that
provide housing to individuals and families.

Those shelters are intended to help people who are
homeless, or at risk of homelessness, until they can
achieve self-sufficiency.

Of course, Fr. Bill looked forward to the day when
homelessness would be eradicated from city streets
and he could rejoice knowing the "sign is down" at
the shelter.

Sadly, he never had a chance to see that day.

But, because of Fr. Bill, countless people have seen
better days because of his love and devotion.

In his homily at Fr. Bill's funeral Mass, the Rev.
Philip A. Davignon, pastor of Our
Lady of the Assumption Church in
Osterville on Cape Cod, likened death
to "two sides of a coin."

"On the one hand it is very sad, »
because someone we have known as i
a priest, a pastor, a relative, a friend
or benefactor is no longer with us and ^^' "^^^^jnon
we are accustomed to having that per-
son," said Fr. Davignon, a friend of Fr. Bill's for 47
years.

"On the other hand, we thank God and rejoice in our
Faith that tells us that death is not the end; it is merely
a door to a greater life for those who believe in Jesus
Christ and try to live His lifestyle. Our faith tells us
that even though Jesus lived, suffered and died, more
importantly. He rose from the dead and guarantees
resurrection from the dead and eternal happiness with
Him to His true disciples and friends."

He also said "In Heaven we shall recognize people
with whom we have had a special relationship; par-
ents, children, spouses, dear friends; but we shall see
everything in the light of God who is the Author of all
life. Just as plants and flowers turn naturally to the sun
for warmth and life so the saints in Heaven tum natu-
rally to God who is their Light and Life."

Fr Bill, Fr. Davignon pointed out, was "tmly the
hght of the world. He saved many lives from addic-
tion, homelessness and poverty."

For those who cherish the memory of Fr. Bill, his
light will shine forever.

Scenes From Yesterday

mm WKKL

THIS IS A February 1936 postcard reproduction show-
ing the nearly completed $2.4 million Fore River Bridge.
Built during the Great Depression, the total cost was
paid out of Federal Public Works Administration funds.
State engineers designed the bridge and managed its
construction by the V. Bartletta Co. of Roslindale. It took
only two years to build and put to work hundreds of un-
employed construction workers. But at the time people
and politicians were opposed to using federal funds for
local construction projects, and when completed, open-
ing dedication ceremonies were delayed for almost three
months due to bickering between federal, state, city
and town officials. Finally in May, Gov. James Michael
Curley, escorted by an armed military guard, stood at

the center of the drawbridge among several thousand
celebrants to dedicate the bridge. In his remarks. Gov.
Curley boldly lauded President Franklin Roosevelt
and his New Deal, which provided the funds. He added
that Quincy or Weymouth or Norfolk County never
would have built the bridge and so let us "thank God
for a man like Franklin Roosevelt." Now a new bridge
costing over $250 million is scheduled to be built here.
You wonder what happened to the blueprints of the old
bridge shown here that won an award in 1936 as the
most magnificent bridge built in America that year. To

Mandated Healthcare Being Rushed Through Congress

The federal govern-
ment mandated healthcare
program is being rushed
through Congress so that
we, the American people,
will not understand how it
operates, and therefore will
not be likely to call our sen-
ators and congressmen to
influence their votes.

The Obama administra-
tion does not want a thor-
ough debate on this massive
program attempting to have
both chambers vote before
the August recess when sen-
ators and congress-people
return to their districts.

This government health-

care program will not reduce
healthcare costs, and sources
of funding are deemed un-
certain according to private
and public research entities
including the Congressional
Budget Office, which states
there are no measurable
funding goals established.

This government pro-
gram will be the sole health-
care plan available to the
American people; nobody
will be allowed to keep his/
her current private health-
care plan-contrary to claims
of the Obama administra-
tion.

Everybody must register

in this government plan, and
must provide information on
their annual federal income
tax return of their member-
ship. If unable to provide
evidence of membership, or
have decided to self-insure
you will be fined $2,500.

Primary care physicians
could very well be assigned
by the government plan,
rather than the individual
member selecting the doctor
of personal choice.

Under this government
healthcare program, deci-
sions of healthcare treat-
ment, rather than being be-
tween doctor and patient.

mstead are though to be
ba.sed on criteria determined
by a politically-appointed
group, likely not concerned
as their first priority compli-
ance with the Hippocratic
Oath-provide for the good
of the patient and never do
harm.

This government health-
care program is being rushed
through Congress without a
deliberative debate, with
hardly a senator or con-
gressperson having read the
1 ,000-page document.

Unidirectional Water Main Flushing

Flushing Schedule

Houghs Neck (11 :00 PM - 4:00 AM) Wednesday. August 5, 2009 through Tuesday, August 18, 2009
Squantum (11 :00 PM - 4:00 AM) Wednesday, August 1 9, 2009 through Tuesday, September 1 , 2009
What is the Water Main (Hydrant) Flushing Program?

To improve water quality and minimize discoloration, City of Quincy water mains are comprehensively flushed by a technique
known as unidirectional flushing. This procedure is performed during warm weather months and involves the systematic
opening and closing of hydrants, one section main at a time, to force the water through the pipes at high velocity, removing
mineral sediment until the water is clear.

How will Flushing Affect Water Service?

When flushing crews are working close to your residence or business, you may experience periods of low pressure and/
or discolored water Such events should affect customers for a few hours at most. The discoloration is caused by iron (red
color) or manganese (black color) particles being dislodged from the water main which can stain laundry or porcelain. If
discoloration should occur open a cold water faucet nearest the water meter - to full flow until the water runs clear. In some
situations this may take 5 to 10 minutes. It is advised that you make sure your water is clear before doing laundry.

We ask for your patience and understanding during this critical main cleaning process. If you experience extended periods
of discolored water please call (617) 376-1910.

Preliminary Election For Mayor, School Committee Sept. 22

( out '(I From I'a^e I

63 Island Ave., a letter car-
rier in Weymouth, filed pa-
pers with 56 signatures.

A minimum of 50 certi-
fied signatures is required to
qualify on the ballot for any
elective office in Quincy.

The fourth mayoral can-
didate - Quincy Police Sgt.
Paul Turowski, age 49, of
125 Edgewater Dr., Houghs
Neck - returned his nomi-
nation papers just before 4
p.m. Election workers cer-
tified 287 signatures on his
papers.

Koch and Phelan submit-
ted their papers before Tues-
day. Koch submitted 509
signatures and Phelan 299,
according to the Election
Department.

This year will mark Quin-
cy's first mayoral prelimi-
nary in six years. The two
highest voter getters Sept.
22 will face off Nov. 3.

Koch, age 46, of 249
Newbury Ave., is seeking a
second two-year term.

Phelan, age 49, of 86
Monroe Rd., served six
years as mayor. Unseated by
Koch two years ago, Phelan
is trying to become the first
Quincy mayor to win back
the mayor's office in a sub-
sequent election.

Koch, former executive

director of the city's Park,
Forestry and C'emetery De-
partment, resigned from that
office in January, 2(K)7 to
challenge Phelan who was
in his third term. Koch de-
feated Phelan by a margin of
2,051 votes.

O'Malley and Turowski
will be seen as political un-
derdogs since neither has
run for office before.

O'Malley took papers
out in 2005 to run for mayor
but did not return them.

Turowski is the first
Quincy police officer to run
for elective office in Quincy
since former patrolman Jo-
seph Keegan ran un.success-
fully for Ward 1 councillor
in 2003.

If elected mayor, Tur-
owski would have to choose
between serving as mayor
or remaining with the police
ranks.

Phelan was first elected
mayor in 20O1 when he
defeated incumbent James
Sheets by a scant 17 votes -
the closest mayoral election
in Quincy history. Phelan,
a former school committee
member, was also re-elected
in 2003 with opposition and
in 2005 without opposition.

The last mayoral pre-
liminary was in 2003 when
Phelan was challenged by

Ward 6 C()uncilit)r Joseph
Newton and Quincy busi-
nessman Harvey Kert/man.
Phelan defeated Newton in
the final election that year.

Here's how the city's
other races shape up:
School Committee

The race for the three
seats on the School Com-
mittee will field eight candi-
dates. That number will be
pared down to six after the
preliminary election Sept.
22.

There is only one in-
cumbent in the field: Anne
Mahoney, age 44, of 1 2 Fer-
riter St., who is seeking her
second four-year term. The
other two current school
committee members - Ron
Mariano and Nick Puleo -
decided not to seek election
this fall. Both Mariano and
Puleo were elected by a spe-
cial convenUon of city coun-
cillors and school committee
members to fill vacancies.

Besides Mahoney, citi-
zens filing papers for School
Committee are:

• Matt Lockwood Mul-
laney, age 39, of 180 Glen-
dale Rd., a market manager
for Harvard Pilgrim's Mas-
sachusetts business.

• Rebecca Mc Williams,
age 26, of 24 Newcomb St.,
a licensed architect.

• Karl Roos. a^c 4! . ol K
Park St . who works m the
pharmaceutical industry.

• Michael Covais.age .^1 ,
of 23 Pope St., a local attor-
ney.

• Barbara I sola, age 52,
of 34 Randlett St, an as-
sistant district attorney in
Plymouth County.

• Emily Lebo, age 58, of
354 Highland Ave., direc-
tor of Career and Vocational
Education for the Boston
Public Schools.

• Steven Striffler. age 44.
of 63 Huckins Ave., a local
attorney

This will be the first pre-
liminary election for School
Committee since 2005 when
12 candidates campaigned
for three seats.

City Council

There will be three con-
tested races for City Council
this fall, but neither war-
rants a preliminary election
since there are only two can-
didates for each office.

In Ward 1, two political
newcomers from Houghs
Neck will face off in the
general elecUon Nov. 3:
Margaret Laforest, a com-
munity activitist and former
president of Houghs Neck
Community Council, and
Martin Aikins, chairman of
the Zoning Board of Ap-

peals and a business man- IHc three jiuumbcnt

Koch, Keenan Cite Progress In Diminishing Drug Traffic

Cont 'd From Page 1

"The number of drug ar-
rests is up by 22% and that's
not by accident," Koch said,
citing the two major factors.
"We've doubled the size
of the drug unit," and "We
were able to add some dogs
to the job."

"We're drawing the line
with drug dealers." Koch
said, adding. "We've seen

too many tragedies. Drugs
affect families from all
walks of life."

Koch noted that winning
the battle against illicit drugs
involves Enforcement, Edu-
cation and Treatment and all
are important.

"We can measure the
enforcement," Koch said,
describing the rippling ef-
fect of illegal drugs on other

"Drugs were one of my
priorities," said Keenan
who recalled visiting fami-
lies who lost members to
overdoses. The numbers of
sudden deaths from over-
dose were increasing, but,
often, he said that the fami-
lies weren't surprised.

'They just didn't know
when it would happen," said
Keenan, adding that Quincy
is a safe city, "I don't think
it has any higher percentage
than any other city."

Keenan credited a good
mix of young drug unit re-
cruits with the more experi-
enced veterans for the recent
successes and, just as im-
portantly, the department's
level -funded 2010 budget.

In addition, Keenan said
that his department has re-
established its ties with the
Drug Enforcement Agency
Administration (DEA) and
has assigned an officer to
work with them.

Interaction with the DEA
and other community police
departments offer "a fresh

set of eyes," said Keenan
who added, "It's a long jour-
ney."

"A lot of abusers need
treatment," said Glynn who
said police occasionally
make "therapeutic arrests"
for people in danger.

Glynn then outlined sev-
eral of the major arrests in
nearly every section of the
city in the past month which
netted over $60,000 in drug
money.

"Our focus is mid-level
dealers," said Glynn who
noted that search warrants
have been effective in track-
ing some dealers. Glynn,
also, encouraged residents
to call and report any suspi-
cious activity.

"The public is beginning
to provide more informa-
tion," said Glynn who urged
residents to report suspi-
cious activity on the police
web site or by calling 617-
328-4527.

Glynn said the resident
can call anonymously.

"We don't want to put a
Band-Aid on it." said Glynn.
"We want to remove it."

Glynn then described
police arrests and raids in
several sections of the city,
ranging from Quincy Cen-
ter, Houghs Neck, West
Quincy, Quincy Point to
North Quincy.

In recent weeks, police
seized some $71,000 in
cash, four cars, 100 bags of

heroin, marijuana, and hun-
dreds of Oxycontin pills.

The new efforts are
working, according to
Kathy Deady, a member
of the Mayor's Drug Task
Force, EDAN (End Drug
Abuse Now) and Family
Anonymous, who attended
the meeting..

Deady said, "The citi-
zens of Quincy have be-
come so proactive, letting
police what going on in their
neighborhoods."

However, it's important
that the courts back up the
police efforts, according to
Deady who praised Quin-
cy's Drug Court program
and said, "There's a lot of
good treatment available."

Coffee Break Cafe:
A Neighborhood Coffee Shop

Coffee Break Cafe lo-
cated right off of Beale
St. on Old Colony Ave in
Wollaston is your local
neighborhood coffee shop.
Quincy residents Jenn and
Donny Ormond opened
for business March 3'^'
1996 to fill the void for
the customer who wanted
to drink specialty coffee
and be served with good
old fashioned eye contact
and a smile. Coffee is like
wine or cheese: once you
begin to appreciate what
higher quality tastes like,
it is hard to go back to the
lower grade coffee that

can be purchased any-
where.

Coffee Break is known
for its iced coffee, the sug-
ar is always melted and
mixed and all flavors are
served 7 days a week year
round. Espresso based
drinks are a close second
in popularity to iced cof-
fee. Always hand made,
CBC uses real chocolate
and ooey gooey caramel
in our drinks, stirred by
hand and all shots are
properly extracted by
hand on the spot. Summer
time is also a very popu-
lar time for frozen drinks

like the Oreo Brain Freeze
or the Heath Bar Craving,
and can't forget about our
frozen cocoa.

CBC recycles and com-
posts. CBC gives back to
the community daily and
does business with other
local businesses who are
also values led.

CBC has continued to
grow despite this difficult
economy. Coffee is an af-
fordable luxury and it is
one that people deserve to
reward themselves with.

Coffee Break Cafe has
three locations in Quincy
and one in Braintree. Al-

though hours may var> ing the summer (6 a.m.
weekdays we open at 5:30 opening on weekends) and
a.m. and close at 9 pm dur- we only close one da\ per

Two women in Nevada

a cigarette igniting bedding.
To complicate the incident,
the electrical cord lead to an
oxygen concentrator.

A higher concentration
of oxygen within a room,

Morrissey Supports Sheriffs Reform Bill Rotary Club Donates $15,000 To Senior Center

The Senate and House
recently passed final legisla-
tion that could save taxpay-
ers up to $8 million a year
by transferring the remain-
ing seven county sheriff's
offices to the state payroll
and state health insurance
plan.

The bill is designed to
promote a more efficient
delivery of service between
state and county govern-
ments, and is the latest in a
string of reforms recently
passed by the legislature.

Sen. Michael Morrissey
said also, that "the bill "An
Act Transferring County
Sheriffs to the Common-
wealth, moves the Bristol,
Norfolk, Suffolk, Plymouth,
Barnstable, Nantucket and
Dukes county sheriffs of-
fices to the state payroll, and
the state Group Insurance
Commission (GIC), which
will provide sheriffs' em-
ployees with more afford-
able health care."

Sheriffs' office retirees
and current employees will
be moved into the QIC to

provide savings on health
insurance costs.

Morrissey said "In this
fiscal crisis, this piece of re-
form legislation will create
a more simplistic budgeting
and oversight process and
introduce efficiencies and
consolidates saving taxpay-
ers millions of dollars."

Transferring the county
sheriffs' offices will save
taxpayers millions by reduc-
ing heath care costs and es-
tablishing a reliable method
to build annual operating
budgets. This will eliminate
the uncertainty these sheriffs
have faced in the past.

The consensus bill also
addresses concerns about
the original proposal that
left counties with a sizable
unfunded liability by leav-
ing retired sheriffs' employ-
ees in the county retirement
systems.

The final legislation also
removes the $30,000 in pay
raises for the Dukes County
Sheriff's that were included
in the original proposal.
Instead the Dukes County

Sheriff's annual salary re-
mains at $97 .{XX) and the
Nantucket County Sher-
iff, who does not oversee a
house of correction, will see
his pay reduced by approxi-
mately one third of his cur-
rent salary.

The final bill also does
the following:

Sheriff's salaries will
no longer be tied to that of
an associate superior court
judge. They will now earn
their pay raises based on
merit.

It eliminates the current
practice of supplementing
the Nantucket County Sher-
iff's salary by allowing him
to keep an estimated $ 1 5 ,000
to $20,000 per year in civil
process fees. Those fees will
now go toward funding the
operations of the sheriff's
office, saving state taxpay-
ers money.

It also eliminates the ex-
isting County Finance Re-
view Board.

The bill would to into
effect Jan. 1, 2010. It now
goes to the Governor for his
signature.

Fr. William McCarthy: 'Truly A Light Of The World'

{The following is the text of the
homily given hy the Rev. Philip A.
Davignon at the Mass of Christian
Burial for the Rev. William R. Mc-
Carthy July 30 at Saint John the
Baptist Church, Quincy.)

My name is Fr. Phil Davignon,
pastor of Our lady of the Assump-
tion Church in Osterville on Cape
Cod. 1 have known Fr. Bill for 47
years.

Death for a Catholic Christian
is like 2 sides of coin. On the one
hand it is very sad, because some-
one we have known as a priest, a
pastor, a relative, a friend or bene-
factor is no longer with us as we
are accustomed to having that per-
son, in this case a dedicated priest
whose family extended beyom'
blood relatives.

On the other hand, we thank
God and rejoice in our Faith that
tells that death is not the end; it is
merely a door to a greater life for
those who believe in Jesus Christ

and try to live His lifestyle. Our
Faith tell us that even though Jesus
lived, suffered and died, more im-
portantly and this is the most im-
portant thing that we believe, more
importantly. He rose from the dead
and guarantees resurrection from
the dead and eternal happmess
with Him to His true disciples and
friends.

In Chapter 14 of John's Gos-
pel Jesus said to His disciples on
the night He died, "In my Father's
house there are my dwelling places
... I am gong to prepare a place for
you ... 1 will come back again and
take you to myself, so that where I
am you also may be."

In Matthew's Gospel, chapter
22, Jesus is challenged by some
who did not believe in life after
death or angels or spirits. They
said that if a woman died having
had several husbands who also
died, at the resurrection, whose
wife would she be, since she had

several husbands .' Jesus answered
them, "You do not know the Scrip-
tures or the power of God. At
the Resurrection there is neither
marriage nor are people given in
marriage. They are like angels in
Heaven." He went on to sa>. "Re-
member what God has said to you.
1 am the God of Abraham, the God
of Isaac, the God of Jacob. He is
not the God of the dead, but of the
living."

Of course m Heaven we shall
recognize people with uhom v\e
have had a special relationship:
parents, children, spouses, dear
friends; but we shall see every-
thing in the light of God who is the
Author of all life. Just as plants and
flowers turn naturalh to the sun
for warmth and life so the saints in
Heaven turn naturally to God who
is their Light and Life.

The Pascha[ Candle represents
Jesus, the Light of the World. It
was first lit last April at the Fas-
ter Vigil. The lights in the church
were dimmed; and as the candle
was brought slowK down the cen-
ter aisle, the faithful in the pews
lit their candles from the Paschal
Candle to remind them that they
too must be a light to the world.

Fr. BUI McCarthy lit his can-
dle from the Christ Candle many
times in the course of his life. He
truly was a light to the world He
saved many lives from addiction,
homelessness and poverty.

Recently in the Office of Read-
ings in the priests" breviary to
which Fr. Bill was very faithful.
the priests read the following from
one of Si .Augustine's sermons;

"Do not grieve or complain that
you were born in a time when you
can no longer see God in the flesh.
He did not in fact take this privi-
lege from you. As He say s. '\\ hat-
ever you have done to the least oi
my brothers, you did to me."

1 had asked Fr. Bill to give the
homilv at the Mass for mv 4()th

anniversary as a priest, because
1 always admired his concern tor
the poor and needy In a document
from the Second Vatican Council
titled "Decree on the Ministry and
Lite of Priest"" one of the things it
says IS

"Although he (the priest) has
obligations toward all. a pnest
has the poor and lowly entrusted
to him in a special way The Lord
Himself showed that He was unit-
ed to them, and the tact that the
(jospel v^as preached to them is
mentioned as a sign of Messianic
activity "■

The Catholic Church has a
wonderful teaching called the
Communion ot Saints. In the .\ew
lestament part of the Bible the
Christians sometime referred K^
each other as saints, because they
knev\ that they were called to ho-
liness. The Communion of Saints
means that in the My ^tical Body ot
Christ, the Church, there is a con-
nection, a ct)mmunion. a real com-
munication between the saints in
Heaven, the saints in purgatorv on
their wav to Heaven and the saints
here on earth, yt)u and me

When we have a problem, ot
course, we turn to God, we turn to
Jesus. But we can also pray -to the
saints who have gone before us

So today as we ask God to give
Fr. Bill eternal happiness, we ask
him to pray lor us: and we ask
him to continue to pray for the
homeless, to pray for the poor and
needv.

Fixing a
Leaky Faucet

Q^ I have a kitchen sink
• that has two faucets
(hot and cold) that drip all day
long, no matter how much I
tighten the handles. Is this
something 1 can fix? - Harry in
Palo AUo, Calif.

A^A faucet drip is a
• very common prob-
lem and certainly one that every
do-it-yourselfer should tackle, if
only to build moral fiber. There
will be a bit of elbow grease in-
volved, but when the drip stops,
it's a great feeling.

For your type of faucet,
you'll need an Allen wrench, an
adjustable wrench and a small
screwdriver. You'll also need re-
placement parts: a set of washers
and possibly new valve seats (if
the valve seats are removable;
otherwise, you'll need a seat
grinder, a special tool available
in the plumbing department of
your hardware store).

Turn off the water supply to
the faucet at the nearest valve.
Open the faucet to drain excess
water. When the supply has
stopped, remove the faucet han-
dles. Your kitchen handles prob-
ably have plastic caps on the top
- carefully pry up the caps with
a screwdriver and remove the re-
taining screw, then pry the han-
dles up from the bottom, being
careful not to scratch the finish.
What you'll see when the
handle comes off is the stem, and
about halfway down that stem
you'll see an area that bulges out
(wide enough to fit the opening

of the valve). Use an adjustable
wrench to unscrew the packing
nut ~ using a counterclcKkwise
motion - and pull it out.

At the bottom of this as-
sembly, you'll see a small brass
screw. This holds the seat wash-
er in place, and this is the washer
you want to get at. Remove the
small screw and replace the seat
washer with a new washer of the
same size.

While the packing nut is out,
inspect the valve seat: the recep-
tacle in the base of the faucet
body where the packing nut re-
sides. If it looks pitted or worn,
it needs to either be replaced or
smoothed with the seat grinder.
A valve seat that isn't built into
the faucet body can usually be re-
moved using an Allen wrench and
turning counterclockwise. If it's
stuck, or can't be removed, use
a seat grinder. Screw the grinder
into the valve seat, then turn back
and forth three or four times.

Reassemble the faucet han-
dles and open the faucet. Turn
on the water at the valve, then
turn off the faucets to see if the
drip is gone.

HOME TIP: Compression-
and ball-type faucets can usually
be repaired by the do-it-your-
selfer, while other types, such
as the cartridge, may require a
professional . Check manufac-
turer information before starting
faucet repairs.

Gain Value And Curb Appeal For Your Home

(NAPSI) Good news for
many homeowners who
want to do something to up-
date the look of their houses,
even in a tough economy:
You can still benefit from a
home remodeling project.

Smart investments, such
as sprucing up your home's
exterior with vinyl siding,
can pay off in value and
curb appeal. With today's
wide range of vinyl siding
profiles, architectural trim
and accessories, plus color
options to meet a variety of
architectural styles, vinyl
siding can deliver beauty
and durability at a great
value.

Here are five reasons vi-
nyl siding is a great home
improvement investment:

• Lowest installation cost

• High return on invest-
ment

• Easy to maintain

• Superior green building
performance

• Wide range of design
and color options

Lowest Installation
Cost and High ROI
Vinyl siding has the low-
est total installed cost of any
exterior cladding, yet offers
among the highest returns on

investment. Installing vinyl
siding on your home is one
of the top home improve-
ment projects in terms of
added value that is recouped
at resale. In fact, vinyl sid-
ing, unlike painting, can
qualify as a capital improve-
ment, providing breaks on
capital gains taxes when you
sell vour home.

Simple Maintenance
Vinyl siding also requires
little maintenance. While a
painted exterior needs to be
repainted every few years,
requiring time and money,
all vinyl siding requires is
cleaning with mild soap and
water. What's more, vinyl
siding is engineered to re-
sist heat, cold, moisture and
high winds, which means it
provides beautiful looks that
last.

When it comes to be-
ing green, vinyl siding is a
surprisingly smart choice.
Looking at its entire life cy-
cle, vinyl siding outperforms
other exterior cladding op-
tions on a host of energy
and environmental perfor-
mance factors. Insulated vi-
nyl siding, in particular, has
been shown to save energy
and reduce greenhouse gas

Great Design
and Color Options

You can be confident that
vinyl siding is a good in-
vestment but that's only half
the story. Vinyl siding also
offers many design options
that increase the curb appeal
of your home. Today's vinyl
siding comes in an increas-
ingly diverse selection of
profiles, architectural trim
and accessories. Color op-
tions now range from neu-
tral tones to deep reds, blues
and greens.

"Vinyl siding is now
available in bold colors. It
can suit a sweeping range
of architectural styles and
design tastes from historic
to contemporary," says Jery
Y. Huntley, president of the
Vinyl Siding Institute (VSI).
"In addition, vinyl siding of-
fers more color options than
any prefinished cladding
on the market today, 350 of
which are certified for color

retention."

Vinyl siding manufac-
turers offer a wide range of
choices and colors to create
diverse architectural styles,
such as Craftsman, Cape
Cod, Georgian, French Co-
lonial and Folk Victorian.
The good news is designing
with vinyl siding is easy and
within reach for the average
homeowner. One available
tool for builders, architects
and homeowners is "De-
signing Style: A Guide to
Designing with Today's
Vinyl Siding." It was de-
veloped by VSI and can be
downloaded free at www.
vinylsiding.org/design.

According to Huntley,
"Designing Style is a great
way to identify the style of a
home or select a new look to
create. It helps contractors
and homeowners choose
specific profiles, architec-
tural trim and accessories to
achieve an authentic look."

A Job Well Done

On Sunday, July 26, at approximately 8:50 p.m.. Offi-
cers Jay Borden, Tom Ford, Keith Wilbur, Sergeant Mark
Foley and K-9 Officer Scott
Smith responded to Columbia
Street on a report of a "B&E in
progress."

While en-route, QPD Com-
munications gave an up-
date stating that the male sus-
pect fled toward Centre Street
and was wearing a black back-
pack. Officer Borden-was in the
area of Fort Square when this
call came in, so he headed
there via Liberty Street to Cen-
tre Street. As he approached .
the intersection of Liberty and

Plain Streets, he observed a male with a black t-shirt rid-
ing a bicycle, and wearing a black backpack.

Officer Borden pulled next to the suspect and as he
asked a question, the suspect immediately took off to
Plain Street. Officer Borden followed the suspect onto
Plain Street and as he neared, the suspect jumped off the
bike and ran through the back yard of 80-82 Trafford St.

Officer Borden yelled, "STOP - Quincy Police," which
started a foot chase through the yards of 80-82 Trafford.
86-88 Trafford and then across the street behind 95 Traf-
ford St. When Officer Borden went behind 95 Trafford
St., the suspect was out of sight, but after a brief search,
he located the suspect ducking down behind a small
shed that was in the shared driveway of 95 Trafford St.
and 316 Centre St. The suspect at this time ceased running
and obeyed the Officer's direcfive to lie down and put his
hands behind his back so that he could be handcuffed.

Officer Borden had the suspect in custody, but the
backpack was missing. The suspect was sweating pro-
fusely and was out of breath. After providing the suspect
with his Miranda Rights, Officer Borden asked the suspect
where the backpack was, and he said, "What backpack?"
A few minutes later, Officer Wilbur found the backpack
in the driveway of 86-88 Trafford St. and brought it to Of-
ficer Borden, who confirmed it was the same one that the
suspect had in his possession.

Although the backpack was empty, the officers believed
that the suspect was going to use it to carry stolen items.
When asked where he was coming from, the suspect said,
"my friend's", and when asked why he took off when told
to stop by the Police, the suspect did not answer.

A search of the suspect uncovered a "Leather
Man" muhi-tool. There was also an expired license be-
longing to someone else as well as a Bank of America
Debit card belonging to a female party.

Officer Borden then went to the victim's home on Co-
lumbia Street to determine what occurred. The victims,
a couple, stated that they were in their basement watch-
ing television when they heard noises in their kitchen.
The husband stated that he went upstairs, then to his
front stairs, where he saw a male with a dark colored
back pack ride down his driveway on a bike. He stated
that the male headed toward Centre Street. The husband
checked the exterior of his home and noticed that the
screen to his kitchen window was damaged and it ap-
peared as though someone had tried to gain entry, so they
called the police.

The victims were brought to the location where the
suspect was being held in order to identify the suspect as
the same person on the bike in the driveway, which they
confirmed immediately.

The suspect, a24-year-oldhomeIess man (lastknown ad-
dress in Quincy) was placed under arrest and charged with
"Attempt to Commit a Crime (Unarmed Burglary), Pos-
session of Burglarious Tools (Leather man multi-tool), and
three warrants from Taunton and Wrentham District courts .
Additional charges may be added once the owners of. the
debit card and Bank of America card are located.

The bicycle used by the suspect may have been "bor-
rowed" from his brother, but at this time, no one has
claimed the bike, nor was there a report that one matching
the description was stolen.

Nice Work!

Car Breaks Prevention and Door-to-Door
Solicitations Information on QATV:

The Quincy Police Department recentiy taped a show
on QATV for residents to learn about recent car breaks,
the types of breaks and actions to take to avoid being a

The second part of the show covers door-to-door so-
licitations and the problems associated with opening
your home to them. As always, reporting any suspicious
beha^'ior to the Police helps us determine who is in our
neighborhoods.

Quincy Defeated No. Readings-
Heading to NJ To Play In Eastern Regional

QYB 14-Under Team Wins
MA State Championship

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Youth Base-
Ball 14-lJnder Travel All-
Star team will board a bus
for Freehold, New Jersey
on Friday morning lookmg
to continue to write new
chapters in what has be-
come a historic summer of
baseball.

The team, which con-
sists of 14 players, defeat-
ed North Reading, two-
games-to-one last week at
LeLacheur Park in Lowell,
winning the Massachusetts
State Championship in the
Junior Division (ages 13-
14) of Little League Base-
ball and earning the right
to compete in the 10-team
double-elimination East-
em Regional Tournament
against state champions
from Maine. Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Delaware and Maryland
(the host team rounds out
the 10-team field).

Quincy, which steam-
rolled through the District
8 playoffs (first phase) with
a 4-0 record, followed that
accomplishment up by win-
ning the MA South Sec-
tional Tournament (second
phase) with a 4-1 record.
The team's series win over
North Reading in the Mas-
sachusetts State Finals
punched their ticket to the
Eastern Regional.

According to some lo-
cal historians, this Quincy
team will be the first since
1975 to play in a tourna-
ment outside of New Eng-
land. The last team to ac-
complish such a feat was
the 1975 Morrisette Legion
team coached by Ray Cat-
taneo, a team that won the
State and Eastern Regional
American Legion Baseball
tournaments and traveled
to South Dakota where they
participated in the American

Legion Worid Series.

"These kids have played
almost 75 games, starting
back with training in the
winter, and this group of
players is a collection of all-
stars from the five teams in
the Quincy Youth Baseball
house league," said team
manager Mark Jaehnig.
"This particular team start-
ed playing games on June
30 and we have played and
won in the districts, section-
als and state playoffs and
now we are off to New Jer-
sey. From all we have heard
this will be the first time
since 1975 that any Quincy
team will be playing outside
the New England states in a
tournament.

"A big factor in how
well we have played is that
we have practiced every
day, even in the rain. These
kids have answered the call
to be the best and they have
put the work in everyday.
They have a lot of heart and
they believe in themselves.
We are planning on going
to New Jersey and win-
ning and then moving on to
play in the World Series in
Michigan."

Quincy 's road to New
Jersey was completed late
last week. The team, playing
their third game in less than
24 hours, dropped the first
game of the best-of-three se-
ries. 10-9, to North Reading.
Qumcy jumped out to an
early 3-0 first-inning lead in
Game One, but North Read-
ing stormed back to score
three runs in the second in-
ning, two more runs in the
third and four runs in the
fourth frame to take a com-
manding 9-3 lead

Quincy, which through-
out the summer has been a
team that thrives under pres-
sure (the team beat Auburn
two straight games to cap-
ture the South Sectionals),

scored five runs in the fifth
and one run in the sixth, in-
cluding a perfectly executed
suicide squeeze by Andrew
Currie. to tie the score at
9-9.

North Reading quieted
the Quincy fandom by scor-
ing the winning run in the
sixth inning to take the first
game. 10-9.

Jason Pekkinen and Pat
Verhault (three hits each).
Andrew Jaehnig and Mike
Gallotto (two hits each), and
Matt Davis. Rudy Tryon
and Tom McDonald (one
hit each) were the offensive
stars for Quincy in Game
One.

Facing the possibility
of being sent home for the
summer, Quincy responded
in Game Two with an of-
fensive display, winning by
a score of 23-6. In the first
inning, Quincy got a single
from Tryon followed by
a single from Verhault; a
fielder's choice by Gallotto
loaded the bases; McDonald
doubled in two runs; David
Joyce doubled in two more
runs and Jaehnig scored two
more with a single.

Trailing 6-0, North Read-
ing scored four times in the
bottom of the first, and af-
ter just one wild inning, the
score was 6-4 Quincy.

Quincy scored another
run in the second as Gal-
lotto (three hits, four RBI)
doubled in Verhault (four
hits, five runs scored) and
the team plated four addi-
tional runs in the fourth on
three North Reading errors,
a Verhault single and a Mc-
Donald (three hits) double.

A .seven-run fourth in-
ning put Game Two to bed.
Dan Cobban, Matt Davis
and Jaehnig (two hits) had
RBIs in the fourth Quincy
scored five more runs in the
fifth as Currie and Josh Hay-
ward produced run scoring

Cobban, after surviving
a shaky first inning, earned
the win on the hill, set-
ting up the deciding Game
Three, a game which Qum-
cy won. 11-1 .

In the win-or-go home
third game Quincy gave the
ball to its ace pitcher, Tom
McDonald (5-0 in playoffs),
and he delivered with a
monster performance. Mc-
Donald went six innings,
allowing two hits and sink-
ing out nine batters. He re-
ceived all the offensive sup-
port he would need in the
first innmg as pinch runner
Andrew Currie (23 stolen
bases in 12 playoff games),
on base following a walk,
stole second and third base
and scored on a wild pitch.

Another walk, a single by
Pekkinen and a double-steal
put runners on second and
third. Two quick outs later,
the scoring threat looked to
be in over, but Jaehnig came
through with a clutch single
to score a run and Trvon
doubled scoring two more
runs giving Quinc\ a 4-0
lead after one inning.

Quincy went on to add
another run in the fourth
when a walk, stolen base and
sacrifice bunt set the stage
for a Josh Hay ward sacrifice
fly RBI; the team stretched
their 5-0 lead to 6-0 follow-
ing a Hayward walk; Pekki-
nen sacrifice bunt and Tryon
RBI single.

.Matt Davis. Hayward and
Cobban had RBI hits in the
si.vth inning as Quinc\ tacked
on four additional runs.

"Tommy McDonald has
been our most consistent
pitcher throughout these
playoffs." said Jaehnig. "He

he has reall> pitched well all

defense has been solid and
that all comes back to pla\ -
ing as much baseball as vou

Against The Tide Event Aug. 15

Debra Tobin, Dotti Cappola
Participating In Breast Cancer Benefit

Two Quincy residents
will be participating in the
1 1th annual Against the Tide
Saturday. Aug. 15 at Nicker-
ston Park in Brewster.

Debra Tobin and Dotti
Cappola will take part in
the one-mile swim, two-
mile kayak, and three-mile
fitness walk to benefit the
Massachusetts Breast Can-
cer Coalition.

This fun and inspirational
morning event brings swim-
mers, kayakers and walkers
of all ages and abilities to-
gether from across the state
in efforts to stop the breast
cancer epidemic.

Tobin has been touched
by breast cancer.

"Each one of us knows
someone who has faced this
disease in one form or an-
other. In my family, my aunt
was diagnosed over 5 years
ago and today remains can-
cer free.

"However, my younger
sister was recently diag-
nosed with DCIS and under-
went a partial mastectomy.
This cause has always been
at the top of those that 1 sup-
port but in recent years it has
become intensely personal.

"Women are living lon-
ger but every day someone
still dies of this disease. We
MUST find a cure for breast
cancer - so that our moth-
ers, sisters, daughters, part-
ners, aunts, grandmothers,
cousins and friends have a
better chance of living lon-
ger, healthier lives," Tobin
added.

Cappola's cousin con-

quered breast cancer, and
her courageous fight against
the disease has motivated
her to overcome her own
fear of swimming in lakes in
order to support this event.

"My cousin stood up to
breast cancer with such cour-
age, nobility and strength...
If my cousin, my hero,
Linda Grant, could conquer
breast cancer with so much
grace and determination,
then damn it all, I can swim
in that lake."

She continued, 'I support
the Massachusetts Breast
Cancer Coalition because of
their focus on breast cancer
prevention which is neces-
sary in order to change the
legacy of breast cancer for
future generations."

(NAPS)-There's an
easy way to shape up that's
accessible, affordable and
can accommodate even the
busiest of schedules— it's
walking. No wonder it's
the No. 1 fitness activity for
adults. And with the simple
addition of a few fitness
goals and a pedometer, you
have everything you need to
elevate your walk to a work-
out.

Walk It Out

Many people don't real-
ize the walking they already
do each day is a positive step
to help them get fit. In fact,
studies at the Stanford School
of Medicine have uncovered
a long list of benefits from
walking, including reduced
body fat, lowered choles-
terol and blood pressure as
well as increased flexibility
and mental well-being. It's-
widely recommended that
adults take 10,000 steps a
day, the equivalent of about
five miles, which can be
achieved by walking 30 to
60 minutes at one time or
in multiple 10-minute incre-
ments over the course of the
day.

Walking is also a key
component to many fitness
plans, including that of train-
er-to-the-stars Ramona Bra-
ganza, who's helped shape
some of the hottest bodies

PRESCHOOLERS' RISING CAVITY RATE

A recent report from the U.S. diligent with their bnjshlng

Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention reveals that the cav-
ity rate among preschool chil-
dren Is rising. According to the
most recently available data, 28
percent of children between the
ages of two and five had decay
in primary teeth during a recent
five-year period. Much of the
blame for increased tooth de-

and flossing habits than they
should be. Your and your chil-
dren's teeth are intended to last
a lifetime - and they can, with
proper dental care. We will do
everything possible to ensure
that your visits to us will be as
comfortable and pleasant as
possible. We're located at 44
Greenleaf Street, where our

cay among very young children sole aim is to provide gentle,
is placed on reduced use of tap compassionate dental care of

water, which is likely to contain
fluoride. Bottied water, on the
otfier had, which has gained
widespread popularity in recent
/Mrs, contains no enamel-
protecting fluoride. Parents are
also advised not to put t>abies
to bed with bottles containing
jiMce or fonDula, wfiich contain
sugars that contribute to tooth
decay

As mwrtioned above, some
young people tend to be less

the highest quality. Please call

VOICE
FOR

HEALTH

by Dr. Gabrielle Freedman

Chiropractor

JJH,

SAVING YOUR OWN NECK

It is a very unfortunate fact of that something is wrong. Neck

pain is a common condition that
often demands attention. In many
cases, neck pain is minor and
goes away on its own. When neck
pain lasts for more than a day or
two, however, it may be time to
seek chiropractic care. Instead of
covering up your symptoms with
drugs, at the FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CMROPRACnC, we look to
correct the underlying problem.
For gentle and safe chiropractic
care, please call 617.472.4220 to
schedule an appointment. We're
located at 112 McGrath Hwy.,
Quincy, where we're currently
accepting new patients. Don't suffer
with pain - let chiropractic help you.
No matter where you live in Eastern
Mass.. we can offer you excej^ional
chiropractic service.

PS. Trampoline set-ups should
include enclosure^ that completely
surround the stretched fabric, as well
as covers that overlay the cords holding
the stretched fabric in place.

life that about 1 .5 million people are
treated in hospital emergency rooms
annually for head injuries and nearly
12,000 for neck fractures. While it
might be correctly imagined that
sports and recreational activities
play large roles in the frequency of
these injuries, causes also involve
other products used in and around
the home. For instance, after sports
are excluded from the accounting,
the top ten outdoor-related causes
of head injury (in the most recent
years for which there are statistics)
were ladders, porches/balconies,
swings/swing sets, fences/fence
posts, workshops, monkey bars,
trampolines, slides, playground
equipment, and garage doors.
Consumers and homeowners are
strongly advised to approach and use
these products with extreme caution.
Do you need to see a
chiropractor? Pain is the body's
universal system for indicating

in Hollywood, from Jessica
Alba to Halle Berry. "For
me, being fit is a lifestyle.
I'd be bored just going to the
gym every day. That's why 1
always recommend walking
to my clients as a great form
of exercise," Braganza said.
"Adding a few easy things
into your daily routine can
help you make sure that ev-
ery step counts."
A Passion for Pedometers

One of Braganza's favor-
ite fitness tools is a pedom-
eter, which can keep track of
the steps you're taking and
give you a benchmark for
measuring progress. Stan-
ford School of Medicine
research aljo shows using
a pedometer can increase
physical activity by about
2,000 steps— or an extra
mile— each day, proving
it's also a great motivational
tool that can push you to go
further.
Further Your Finish Line

"I arm all of my clients
with a pedometer to ensure
they're still held account-
able, even when I'm not
there," Braganza said, "it's
like having a personal train-
er in their pocket that keeps
pushing them to go further."

Braganza recommends
the GOsmart Pocket Pe-
dometer from Omron,
which features smart sen-
sor technology, making it
one of the most accurate
pedometers available. Using
smart sensors, it can count
steps whether it's clipped
at your hip, buried in your
pocket or even attached to
your bag, and since there
are no moving parts, there's
no annoying clicking sound.
Trusted for its accuracy, this

line of pedometers lets you
track steps taken, calories
burned and distance walked.
Coupled with a seven-day
memory, it provides what
you need to chart progress,
compare to your goals and
manage your shape-up strat-
egy-

Tip Sheet

Braganza's other get-fit
tips include:

• Warm Up First. Before
you walk, perform some dy-
namic stretching exercises
(arm circles, hip circles and
leg lifts) to get your blood
flowing and reduce the risk
of injury. Always wear com-
fortable shoes, preferably
ones with arch support.

• Mix It Up. Add variety
to your walking program,
especially if your personal
fitness goal includes weight
loss. Try alternating inter-
vals of fast walking with
intervals at a slower pace.
Walking up hills is also
great for a challenge.

• Add Cardio. Include
some upper body exercises
as you walk, such as arm
reaches overhead or to the
sides, to add another di-
mension to your walk and
increase calorie bum. Hold
small water bottles while
you do the exercises for
added resistance.

When it comes to keep-
ing fit, walking is more than
a step in the right direction.

4 Tmought

AU of us want our cars to run Hnoothly

and efficiently so ^e take time to have them

checked to make sure that all mechankal

aids are in running order . . . Let's think

about another important check-up to be

made. How's your driving mental attitude?

SCOTT DEWARE Can't you go over that and tighten it up a

little? Fill it with courtesy. For in that word . . . Courtesy . . . can be

found the key to most of our driving ills.

Courtesy is often nothing more than a highly developed sense
of fair play ... A friend told me once of driving ak>ng a narrow,
unpaved mountain road. Ahead was another car that produced
ck>uds of choking dust and it was a long way to the nearest paved
highway. Suddenly, at a wider place, the car ahead pulled off the
road. My friend, thinking there might be engine trouble, stopped
and asked if anything way wrong. "No," said the other driver. "But
you've endured my dust this far; I'll put up with yours the rest of
the way." There was a man of good manners, a man with an innate
sense of fiair play.

Perhaps if all motorists were more courteous, possessed of the
same degree of consideration as this driver, we woukl witness an
automotive (teath rate k)wer than ever imagined!

Slars

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Technology snafus tax your
patience. But before you throw
that computer or other bulky
hardware into the trash, take a
deep breath and call someone
knowledgeable for help.

TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) Don't be too upset if your
generosity goes unappreciated.
These things happen, and rather
than brood over it, move on. A
new friend could open up some
exciting new possibilities.

GEMINI (May 2 1 to June 20) A
loved one helps you get through
an especially difficult emotional
situation. Spend the weekend
immersed in the body and soul
restorative powers of music and
the other arts.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
You are pretty much in charge
of what you want to do this
week. However, it might be a
good idea to keep an open mind
regarding suggestions from peo-
ple you know you can trust.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Another chance to shine (some-
thing always dear to the Lion's
heart) might be resented by oth-
ers. But you earned it, so enjoy
it. The weekend brings news
about a family member.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) A suggestion that never
took off could become viable
again. Dust it off, update it if
necessary, and resubmit it. In
your personal life, a new rela-
tionship takes an "interesting"
turn.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Confronting a new
challenge to your stated posi-
tion could work to your advan-

tage by settling all doubts once
you're able to present a solid
defense backed up by equally
solid facts.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) You enjoy doing
nice things for others. But this
is a good time to do something
nice for yourself as well. You
might want to start by planning a
super-special getaway weekend.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 21) Some changes
you feel you need to make might
be reasonable and appropriate.
But others might lead to new
problems. Think things through
carefully before you act.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Good instincts
usually keep the sure-footed
Goat on the right path. So, what
others might see as stubborn-
ness on your part, in fact re-
flects your good sense of what
is worth supporting.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
Febmary 18) A period of in-
trospection could lead to some
surprising conclusions - and
also equally surprising changes
— involving a number of your
long held positions on several
issues.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) The financially practical Pi-
sces might want to take a sen-
sible approach to spending as
well as investing. Being prudent
now pays off later. A romantic
situation moves into another
phase.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
sense of curiosity keeps you
confinually alert for what's new
about people, places and things.

Lockwood Mullaney Launches Blog
On Future Of Quincy Public Schools

Quincy School Commit-
tee candidate Matt Lock-
wood Mullaney announces
he is starting a blog at his
website, www.quincysffp.
com, to spark a dialogue
on the future of the Quincy
Public Schools.

"My first po.st is called
'It's the economy, stupid!"
.said Lockwood Mullaney.
"Most people remember
that line from Bill Clinton's
1992 campaign. It's a little
provocative. It's meant to
get people thinking about
how important schools are
to our kids' future earnings
and to the economic success

of the city itself."

Lockwood Mullaney said
future posts, which will oc-
cur every week on Wednes-
days, will address questions
such as the powers and
duties of school commit-
tee, special education, the
culture of the schools, and
school funding.

"1 may take a week off
in mid-August when Jenny
and 1 are expecting our third
child," he noted.

Lockwood Mullaney
said reader replies will be
reviewed within hours to
ensure they are appropriate
and relevant to the schools.

"1 really want parents,
taxpayers, and even other
candidates for school com-
mittee to read and comment
online at www.quincysffp.
com," Lockwood Mullaney
said. "We need a lively, se-
rious debate on our schools.
I hope my blog can play a
role in that."

Lockwood Mullaney is
a market manager for Har-
vard Pilgrim Health Care's
Massachusetts business. He
earned his B.A from Har-
vard and MBA from MIT.

He lives at l8()Glendale
Rd. near Quincy Center with
his wife Jenny and their two
young children.

Roos Submits Nomination
Papers With Nearly 500 Signatures

Karl Roos, a candidate
for Quincy School Commit-
tee, announces he has sub-
mitted nomination papers to
the City Clerk's office.

Roos said he collected
close to 500 signatures. He
officially declared his candi-
dacy in January, prior to the
announced vacancies on the
School Committee.

"1 have been very en-
couraged by the response I
have received," Roos said.
"People have liked the solu-
tions that I have proposed.

"They like the reasons
that I am rurming. 1 have
three young children in the
Quincy Public Schools. I
have been involved in the
community for years, with
the PTO, WoUaston T-Ball
and the Cub Scouts and with
my 20 years of business
experience and a MBA in
finance, I think 1 can help,"
Roos added.

Roos said he has been
campaigning aggressively
for months, knocking on
doors, doing literature drops,
holding fundraisers and talk-
ing to various groups across
the city.

"It has been a great expe-
rience walking the neighbor-
hoods, meeting with voters,
being at events and coffee
hours, attending School
Committee and sub commit-
tee meetings.

"People understand that
we are and will be facing
challenging financial times.
The budget for the schools
and the city will not be get-
ting better in the next few
years. We will have chal-
lenges facing us.

"It is important to have
the right people with the
right qualities for the right
reasons on the School Com-

mittee. My ideas and rea-
sons for running have been
resonating with the voters,"
Roos said.

He said he looks forward
to the preliminary election
Sept. 22.

"1 still have a lot of work
to do between now and Sep-
ember and 1 am enthused to
contmue meeting and talking
to the voters of Quincy."

Quincy Youth Among Group Of 13 Boston College High School Students In Unforgettable Experience

John Sullivan Helps Build Aqueduct In Dominican Republic

John L. Sullivan of Quin-
cy was one of the 1 3 Bos-
ton College High School
studrats who recently spent
their spring break exploring
the stark realities of poverty
and oppression in an unfor-
gettable experience of ser-
vice immersion in the Do-
minican Republic and Haiti.
The students were based
at the Spanish mission-
styled ILAC center, (In-
stitute for Latin American
Concern) affiliated with
Creighton University. The
center serves as a base and
health clinic for medical
professionals who volunteer
their time and talent to serve
the neglected rural campesi-
nos, or farmers, outside San-
tiago.

Sullivan and the group
ventured into Santiago and
found its p)overty startling,
but imbued with a colorful,
relaxed Caribbean charm
right down to its myriad
stray dogs.

Next they went to Daja-
bon, where two days a week,
the streets become a frenzied
open-air market. Haitians of
all ages, from the youngest
toddlers to tired grandpar-
ents, must haul their wares
across the crowded bridge
that spans the natural border

the poorest nation in the
Western Hemisphere.

He next traveled to a
batey, a camp for poor Hai-
tian sugar-cane workers
and their families. The kids
there were enthralled with
the bags of balls and art sup-
plies, donated by the BC
High community. Sullivan
played soccer and colored,
and the children's smiles
brightened the dusty camp
of corrugated metal shacks.

The next morning they
traveled to Cien Fuegos,
"One Hundred Fires", San-
tiago's dump, a massive pile
of scraps and rotten food,
where adults work each day,
joined by their children af-
ter school, scrambling bare-
foot in search of metal and a
meal. He visited the school

for the children there, just
outside of the dump itself,
where he served bread and
milk, the only meal some of
the students would get that
day.

Sullivan next traveled
through the Dominican
countryside to the village of
La Vereda, his home for the
next two nights. The remote
campo had no running water;
the nearest source for dirty
water was two hours away.
The group then quickly went
to work on the BC High
main mission: finishing the
aqueduct that would bring
pure water into the homes
of La Vereda. The entire vil-
lage threw all their energy
into its completion, going at
the tough dirt with shovels,
picks, and bare hands. They

all celebrated with a Mass,
in which the village people
were sprinkled with holy
water right out of the newly
laid pipes.

After returning to the
city and showering off three
days' of sweat and dirt, they
visited the Angeles de Co-
nani orphanage in the heart
of Santiago. A government
home for abandoned chil-
dren with mental and physi-
cal disabilities, Angeles is
filled with rows upon rows
of sickly children, and its
small staff cannot show
each child the attention and
love he needs to develop
properly. They spent the af-
ternoon with the kids, keep-
ing in mind the words of
Mother Theresa: "We can do
no great things; only small
things with great love."

Eight Residents On Simmons Dean's List

JOHN L. SULLIVAN of Quincy was one of the 13 Boston
College High School students who recently spent their spring
break exploring the stark realities of poverty and oppression
in an unforgettable experience of service immersion in the Do-
minican Republic and Haiti.

Ayers Seeks Preservation Partner In New Quincy Center
Of Moon, Long Islands

By JOE REARDON

Two bills sponsored and
filed by State Representative
Bruce Ayers could determine
future access to Long Island,
as well as maintenance of
other harbor islands.

And his constituents like
what they have heard.

"The feedback has been
positive," said Ayers. "Peo-
ple want to have input con-
cerning Moon and Long Is-
land. This commission will

address that."

The bill hied by Ayers.
House Bill 696, would estab-
lish a commission to study
the future management and
maintenance of Long Island
and Moon Island.

"There are indeed se-
rious public safety, eco-
nomic, environmental and
access issues that must be
addressed," Ayers said.
"Along with jurisdictional
responsibility, particularly

the hazardous conditions on
the Long Island Bridge."

The secc^nd bill (House
Bill 3806) would prohibit
future development on Out-
er Brewster Island. There
had been past legislation
"that would have permit-
ted the Liquid Natural Gas
(LNG) terminal at this loca-
tion," thus bringing up envi-
ronmental risks and public
safety hazards.

Environmental Treasures Program Director Sally Owen Finds:

Secret Treasures Tucked In Every Corner

By LAURA GRIFHN

There may not be gold
in the earth or diamonds
in the rocks but treasures
and secrets abound all
over Quincy, according to
Sally Owen, founder and
director of the Park De-
partment's Environmental
Treasures program.

Owen can show you
where one of the most
unique glacial formations
in the world lies, where
Thomas Morton scandal-
ized the Puritans with
his Maypole dancing and
where the inventor of the
donut is buried, as well

as dozens of other singular
spots.

And, of course, the lo-
cales are all in Quincy and
on her walking and biking
tours.

At Faxon Park, one of
Owen's favorite sites, visi-
tors can find benches hewn
from massive boulders
and stone walls of great
beauty, all constructed by
workers employed through
Roosevelt's Depression fix,
the WPA (Work Project Ad-
ministration).

"There are over 20 of
them," said Owen who finds
different benches on every

visit. She described one fas-
cinating bench made from a
gigantic rock, "They just cut
the boulder in half."

Owen has launched 110
different outings for the
Environmental Treasures
Program and more than
1000 people have discov-
ered some of Quincy 's hid-
den glories and its secret
delights, ranging from the
"Fungus Among Us" tour to
the West Quincy rose gar-
den commemorating granite
workers, and the gardens at
the Dorothy Quincy Home-
stead.

"My goal is to get people

who live in Quincy to appre-
ciate it," said Owen. Each
tour focuses on a unique
aspect of a site so one tour
may focus on fauna, another
on the locale's geology, and
another the historical back-
ground.

"You get a totally differ-
ent group every time." said
Owen of the tours which
attract from ten to 100 par-
ticipants.

Unique Geology

Thanks to Owen, the par-
ticipants of one tour visited
Squantum Park and learned
of its "very complex geol-

Some $8 million in pub-
lic works projects are under-
way or m the design phase
within the city and that
doesn't include the demoli-
tion of the Quincy Fair Mall
building.

Of the $8 million, $4
million from state and fed-
eral agencies are funding
30 watermain. drainage and
road reconstruction projects
while city and state bonds
are covering the $4.3 million
reconstruction of McGrath
Highway. Phase 3 of the
cross-town Concourse.
President's Place

Jackhammers are ripping
up the walkways and rest
areas at President's Place as
workers overhaul the plaza
at the city's premier office
building at 1250 Hancock
St.

Raised planters will be
removed and replaced with
ground-level plantings, new
landscaping, and trees, and
the walkways and sidewalks
will be restructured, accord-
ing to Darcy Chella Amaro,
Property Manager.

"We're getting rid of the
trip hazards." said Chella
Amara of the planters.

Chella Amara said that
the walkways settled and
suffered weather wear and
the sidewalks became un-
even. She expects the work
will be completed in Octo-

ber.

Built in 1989, Presidents
Place is a 350.000 sq. ft of-
fice building of eight and
five story heights with an at-
tached 1 100 car garage. The
building is designed around
a five-story atrium.
Adams Academy

Repairs to the front fa-
cade of the historic Ad-
ams Academy should be
completed in a couple of
weeks, according to Dr. Jim
Edwards, president of the
Quincy Historical Society
which operates as steward
of the building.

Edwards said the work
will improve the appearance
of the building and, even
more importantly, make it
watertight and prevent leak-
ing.

This year's work by
Chapman Waterproofing
Co. will preserve the front
of the building which has
taken the worst hits from
weather and aging, accord-
ing to Edwards.

Once completed, the
building's solid granite
stonework will be anchored
by fresh mortar while the
ancient bricks are "being
replaced with comparable
brick." explained Edwards.

The great granite features
on the building are unique,
according to Edwards who
said the century-old Quincy
granite is still solid while the

aged bricks must be replaced
with similar products.

A national historic land-
mark, Adams Academy is
located at 8 Adams St., the
site of the birthplace of John
Hancock. President John
Adams deeded the land to
the city for a boys' prepara-
tory school which closed in
1908.

Edwards said the Soci-
ety is grateful for the Com-
munity Preservation grant
of $135,000 supported by
Mayor Thomas Koch and
for the $50,000 grant from
the Mass. Historical Society
which allowed this year's
improvements.
Public Works Projects

in late spring, DPW Com-
missioner Larry Prendeville
said bad weather hampered
the scheduling of some pub-
lic works projects, but the
department was still able
to maintain its 2009 sched-
ule for roadwork, sewer and
water projects

This includes four water
main replacements, 14 road
reconstrucfion, four drain-
age improvement projects
and design plans for seven
water main reconstruction
projects in 2010.

Total costs are estimated
at $4.4 million, paid primar-
ily through the state's Chap-
ter 90 funds and federal
Community Development
Block Grants.

ADAMS ACADEMY ARCHES. Tony Golden of Chapman Waterproofing Co. and Dr. Jim
Edwards, president of the Quincy Historical Society, inspect the arches over the Adams Academy
entrance after workers replaced the aged brick and mortar to preserve the unique structure.
Designed by Ware and Van Brunt and built in the 1870's, the building features Quincy granite.

rose (or pink) gold is emerging as
a favorite among designers. Rose
gold, an alloy of copper and gold,
possesses a color that is most
flattering to the skin. The stunning
beauty of the copper- gold alloy
stands in delicate contrast with
other metals, which makes it very
popular for multi-tone rings. In
fact, many simple engagement
rings and wedding bands
incorporate inlaid rose gold to
create unique color combinations.
Depending on the amount of
copper alloyed with yellow gold,
rose gold can range in color from
a light blush to a reddish tone.
Now popular among celebrities,
rose gold is set to make an even
tngger splash with consumers.

Heading For Boston's Chinatown?

City, Little Q Hot Pot May Settle
Demolition Issue This Week

By LAURA GRIFFIN

The Quincy Fair Mall
may still be demolished
this summer if city officials
finalize an agreement this
week with the owner of Lit-
tle Q Hot Pot Restaurant to
vacate the premises at 1585
Hancock St.

"Our goal is to try to
have this resolved by the
end of this week," Assistant
City Solicitor Kevin Mad-
den said Tuesday of negoti-
ations between city officials
and representatives of Little
Q Hot Pot.

"We continue to work
with Little Q on both the
date of vacating and relo-

cation expenses," Madden
said, referring to the city's
payments for relocation
of businesses in buildings
scheduled for demolition.

The Little Q Hot Pot Res-
taurant has been a hit with
hundreds of patrons, ac-
cording to owner Ming Zhu,
who said he serves between
100 and 300 diners a day.

On Tuesday, Zhu said he
has not heard from city offi-
cials in two to three months.

Zhu's Boston attorney
Mark Bourbeau said Tues-
day that he preferred not to
comment on negotiations
while they are in progress.

Keep Dogs Restrained,
Postmaster Urges Owners

Postmaster Jim Holland
recently called for the co-
operation of dog owners in
keeping their pets restrained
during mail delivery times.

"Dog attacks are no
laughing matter," said Hol-
land. "Last year, 3,000 letter
carriers nationwide were at-
tacked and injured by dogs.
That pales in comparison to
the more than 4.5 million
people, most of them chil-
dren and the elderly- who
are bitten by dogs each
year," he said.

Holland said the Postal
Service is not anti-dog, but
pro-responsibility.

"If your dog attacks a
letter carrier, you can be
held liable for all medical
expenses and other costs.
You can avoid this liability
by properly restraining your
pet," Holland said, urging
resident to "Help our let-
ter carriers deliver safely for

you.

Holland

offered four

suggestions for pet owners
seeking to avoid such situ-
ations:

1 . Keep your dog inside
when the letter carrier ar-
rives. Do not allow your
dog to bark, jump or bite the
mail when it comes through
the mail slot.

2. Don't let your child
take mail from the letter car-
rier in the presence of your
dog. Your dog's instinct is to
protect the family.

3. Obedience training
can teach your dog proper
behavior.

4. Spay or neuter your
dog as spayed or neutered
dogs are less likely to bite.

Restaurant is the last ten-
ant in the Quincy Fair Mall
building which is slated for
demolition under the plans
for cross-town Concourse.

Originally, the demoli-
tion was scheduled in June
and the bids have, already,
been finalized, according to
Madden.

However, Little Q Hot
Pot has remained in the
building.

Zhu said the last he'd
heard from city officials was
an eviction notice months
ago. "They probably want
us to stay."

While city officials are
ready, if reluctant, to bid
Little Q Hot Pot farewell,
the patrons want the restau-
rant to stay in Quincy as evi-
denced by four and five star
reviews on the web.

Many rave about the new
concept of hot pot cooking
in a restaurant setting, as
well as the delightful food
choices at Little Q Hot Pot.

In addition , there are such
web comments as, "They
keep torturing us and saying
they're closing in a week or
two. . . ." And "Can 1 move to
Quincy right now?"

Zhu confirmed that he
might be heading to Bos-
ton's Chinatown if and
when he leaves Quincy.
He's chosen a location but
the landlord keeps telling
him, "If you're not movmg
in, we have to give the space
to someone else."

Peter Sleeper of Peter
Sleeper Associates has han-
dled the relocation of other
businesses dislocated by the
Concourse project.

"They've pretty much
chosen a site in Chinatown. "
Sleeper said recentl). add-
ing. "We'd like them to stay
in Quincy."

After viewing the avail-
able locations in Quincy.
Zhu, apparently, has opted
for Boston, according to
Sleeper. "He just felt there's
more walking traffic. . . ."

WHILK CERTAINLY a l>tautiful spot for cit> residents to

swimming. cit> officials ad\ise. The water is not treated, and
there are physical features in the pool of the fountain that

dents may sit around the edges of the fountain or on one of the
nearby benches, but are reminded that the water is recycled
through the fountain and does not meet safe swimming stan-
dards, officials said.

Well, if you love city politics it probably feels like
Christmas came a little early last week.
Last Tuesday, two first-time candidates turned in nomi-
nation papers forcing a mayoral preliminary election, the
first since 2003.

While incumbent Tom Koch and former Mayor William
Phelan appear on a collision course for the general election
luesday, Nov. 3. they will still have to c(iiifend with a run-
off election in less than six weeks.

That's because first-time candidates Joseph CMalley. a
letter carrier: and Paul Turowski. a Quincy police sergeant,
filed papers with at least 50 signatures of registered voters
making it a four-candidate field for the preliminary. Voters
can choose only one candidate on the preliminary ballot,
but the top two vote-getters will be nominated and stjuarc
off Nov. 3.

Most political observers agree Koch and Phelan will
advance to the final election. Both have well-known name
recognition, campaign organization, and have been raising
money for their war chests.

But sometimes elections are like sporting events: a team
that looks great on paper doesn't aways win.

No candidate, of course, is assured of anything until all
the votes are counted after the polls close Sept. 22.

And one of those so-called political underdogs says he's
running to not only give voters another option at the ballot
box, but if elected, to bring the city's spirit back.

"1 want to go over to City Hall and open the windows and
clear the old air out," Turowski says.

"I'm in this to win this. I'm a third or a fourth option. I
don't expect to win. I don't expect to lose.
I'm not asking people to vote for me. I'll
introduce myself, I'll get my word out
there. They can vote for who they want.
That's the democratic society."

The 49-year-old lifelong Quincy resi-
dent said he's not a politician. Instead, he
stands for the people.

"Politicians used to be for the people.
But these (polificians) got in there and it's
changed to entitlement. 1 don't want to be
a politician. Do you have to be a politician to run this city?
1 don't think so. Look what the politicians have done with
it already.

"I'm your grass-roots gentleman coming in. 1 stand for
the people of this city. I stand for the workers of the city. I'm
pro-union as long as the union is fully for its people.

"It's not just the issue of wages all the time. Obviously
1 know there are going to be a lot of contract negotiations
coming up over time. 1 know there have been some wage
freezes that are going on now. The city needs to do that to
cope with the economic times. I'm not here to give the city
away. I am here for the worker. Total workers, not just the
majority."

He says running Quincy is "not rocket science."
"You don't have to be an attorney to run this city. I expect
to be another option for people who don't want to vote for
the other candidates. 1 am your everyday person, 1 am who
you get. If you ask the people who truly know me, you'll get
the true answer."

Turowski lives with wife Kathleen at 125 Edgewater Dr.
He marked 26 years on the Quincy Police force this past
Tuesday. He was promoted to sergeant in October of 1993.
Turowski graduated from the former Quincy Vocational
Technical School in 1977. He attended Quincy Junior Col-
lege and received an associate degree in liberal arts in 1979.
His instructors included former Mayor James Sheets who
was a history teacher at the time.

He said he's running for mayor for a variety of reasons.
For one, as a taxpayer, he's dissatisfied with the way the
city's been run during the Phelan and Koch administrations.
He contends both administrations have wasted taxpayer
money - notably delays associated with building the new
Quincy High School .

"My position is to hold on taxes and if I can, to lower
them, not to raise them. I am a humanistic person. I look at
the human side. From my own point of view, and from the
citizens of Quincy point of view, and the public employees
who work in the city. I strongly believe in that being first.
I want to take care of the workers of the city and the citi-
zens.

"The infrastructure comes second. It's nice to want to do
the downtown over and I have no problem with that. I would
like to see the downtown infrastructure get taken care of. It
needs some uplifting."

Turowski also says he shares taxpayers' frustration.
"1 feel for them. Obviously there are certain services
that the city has to provide. As far as tax issues, obviously I
won't know that until I get in there. Do I want to raise taxes:

absolutely, 100 percent no. Is it going to happen? 1 don't
know. 1 don't want to but services have to be met. I am for
the people.

"1 pay over $8,000 a year in taxes (living) on the water-
front. I'm not ashamed of it. Do 1 want to pay nK)ie? Ab-
solutely not. It's also because the house prices have come
down. Before you know it, your getting negative on the is-
sue on equit) on the homes and I don't think it's fair to the
pei)ple to still be paying on the higher end on their assess-
ments."

Other issues he feels strongly about:

• Reforming Civil Service appointments in the polite and
fire departments si) that top scorers are promoted. He says
b) passing top scorers hurts department morale,

• .Moving the soup kitchen that's presently located in the
basement t)f United First Parish Church in Quincy Center

Since he is a police officer, Turowski cannot campaign
while on duty, on vacation, or on personal days. He says
he'll do his campaigning after work and on the weekends.

Turowski collected about 310 signatures in four days to
qualify for the preliminary ballot. He says he intends to go
door-to-door building a grass-roots coalition.

He also said he plans to organize a campaign finance
committee and do some fundraising but "nothing overly ag-
gressive."

"I am not going to hire a campaign manager. I don't plan
on putting mega signs on people's yards. I'm not going to
be jumping out at a major intersection in front of your wind-
shield. I don't want that.

"1 will get my message out there as best as I can. I am
running on a people campaign."

If elected, Turowski said he would take a leave of ab-
sence from the police force and serve out his two-year term
as mayor.

"If 1 get in there, I'm not going to be playing games. If it
can be done financially 1 will do it. If it can't 1 will explain
why. I don't want to be owned by a company or a corpora-
tion. I want to go in there and do the job for the pe(»ple. I
am honest. I am not someone who is influenced by money."
he adds.

Turowski 's first job was working at a local car wash.

"Some people forget where you come from," Turowski
said. "I'm not someone who forgets where they came from.

"I'm not going to get in there and change. If I get in there
and change, vote me out the next time. You're not going
to have to do that because I'm not someone who has to be
reminded of that."

THE CITY suffered a great loss in the passing of Elmer
"Mike" Fagerlund. who served on the Quincy Board of As-
sessors for 24 years. Mr. Fagerlund was appointed to the
Board by former Mayor James R. Mclntyre in 1967 and
served as chairman under former Mayors Walter Hannon.
Jo.seph LaRaia, Arthur Tobin, Frank McCauley and James
Sheets. He retired in 1991 .

Among those mourning his passing was good friend
George G. Burke. For
many years, the two
friends had a competi-
tion has to who would
attend the most Quincy
High School -North
Quincy Thanksgiving
Day football games.
Burke to date has 65
consecutive games,
while Mr. Fagerlund had attended 73

games, including his four years in the service.

Burke had conceded that Mike should be given credit for
his four years of service during World War II. During the
War, Mike had received many medals, including a Purple
Heart and a Bronze Star.

"He was truly a hero, a dedicated family man, and he
loved Quincy," Burke says.

George and Mike were also brothers, as they both were
devoted to the same fraternity, Lamba Chi Alpha.

Mike was buried Aug. 3. The honorary pallbearers were
former Mayors Arthur Tobin, Walter Hannon, Frank Mc-
Cauley, William Phelan, Joseph LaRaia, and Mayor Tom
Koch. Also sitting with them was Burke, a former acting
mayor and former Norfolk County District Attorney.

Mike's son and daughter, John Fagerlund and Dee Dee
Mariano, both gave outstanding eulogies which truly dem-
onstrated the great love that they had for their father.

Looking ahead to this year's Quincy-North football
game, Burke says, "WTien Thanksgiving is celebrated this
year, and the football game commences, the spirit of Elmer
"Mike" Fagerlund will be sitting right beside me."

Sheriff's 'Are You Okay' Program Responds
To Emergency Medical Care Incidents

A 93 year- old woman
from Milton, and an 84 year
-old woman from Foxboro,
both received emergency
medical care in two sepa-
rate incidents during one
48-hour period, due to the
"Are You OK?" program,
initiated and run by Norfolk
County Sheriff Michael G.
Bellotti, and Quincy-based
Fallon Ambulance.

Help was summoned for
the Milton woman on Aug.
5 after she responded, "I'm
not OK," when she answe-
red her daily well-being
check phone call. An officer
from the Norfolk County
Sheriff's Office noticed the
woman's speech was slurred

and advised her to remain
stationary until help arrived,
and a Fallon ambulance was
dispatched to her address.
She was treated at Milton
Hospital.

Two days earlier, the
Foxboro woman was unable
to answer her daily phone
call from program officers.
An ambulance crew found
the women lying bloodied
and disoriented on the floor
of her home when they re-
sponded around 10 a.m. She
continued to be evaluated at
Norwood Caritas Hospital .

"I am so glad these two

partnership with Fallon Am-
bulance is working so seam-

them working with us in this
lifesaving program."

Sheriff Bellotti and Fal-
lon Ambulance officially
began their partnership last
month after budget cuts and
diminishing government re-
venues endangered the "Are
You OK?" program, which
is free-of-charge to the ne-
arly 300 elderly citizens it
serves each day.

"This program allows se-

"It also provides peace-

er relatives and loved ones
who know that a trained and
qualified professional is cal-
ling to check on them each
day," he added.

The two latest saves
marked the 63rd and 64th

Smart Shopping Strategies

Houghs Neck MOTHERS

Club Meeting Topic Sept. 15

Strategies for stretch-
ing your grocery budget
will be the focus of the
first 2009-2010 meeting
of the MOTHERS Club of
the Houghs Neck Congre-
gational Church Tuesday,
Sept. 15 at 7:30 p.m. in the
church's Fellowship Hall.

The program will feature
Louise Ricciardi, who will
share ways to maximize
money-saving techniques,
including sales, rebates, In-
ternet opportunities and us-
ing coupons effectively.

A coupon swap will also
be held: attendees may bring
unexpired coupons they
don't plan to use and swap
them for other coupons.

Founded nearly 65
years ago by a group of
the church's mothers, the
MOTHERS Club meets
monthly from September to
June and is open to all wom-

en in the community.

"We kept the acronym
MOTHERS to honor the
original group of women
who founded the club," said
club President CVol Hallett,
who stressed that members
do not need to be mothers or
members of the church.

"MOTHERS now stands
for Members Organized To
Help, Educate, Reach out
and Socialize."

Club meetings feature a
variety of special speakers,
programs and events.

Annual dues are $18 a
year. Dues for new members
who join during the month of
September, however, will be
$ 1 5 , or two for $25 for those
who join with a friend.

tional Church is located at

ogy" through NDrtheastern
University Professor Rich-
ard Bailey.

Bailey described the gla-
cial formations at Squaw
Rock as so unique that
Quincy is "one of only five
places in the world" where
they exist.

On another tour of Squan-
tum Park, the group crossed
the sandbar to Thompson's
Island on a trip that should
never be done alone or with-
out professional backup, ac-
cording to Owen.

Through the Treasures
program, bikers and hikers
have enjoyed the spectacu-
lar views from Nut Island,
the city's great variety of
birds, gardens, and sculp-
tures, thanks to guides who
are scholars and authorities
on each subject.

At Caddy Memorial Park,
others learned of archaeo-
logical finds traced to Na-
tive Americans and. at Nut
Island; participants traveled
five stories below sea level
at the Nut Island pumping
station.

Most of the tour lead-
ers volunteer their exper-
tise and want to share what
they know of the city's spe-
cial treasures, according to
Owen who marvels at "the
passion that people have."

"I try to collaborate with
others," said Owen, noting

Environmental Focus
A native ot Baton Rt)uge.
LA, Owen graduated from
Goucher College and Bos-
ton College Law School
After working several years
as a lawyer, she focused on
her environmental interests.
The tours began because
Owen wanted to encourage
more interest and care of
the environment, but they
have expanded over the nine
years.

"1 really care about the
environment." Owen said
during a recent interview at
her Wollaston home where
her laundry, hung on a
cU)thes-line. is sun dried and
her compost bin is three-
quarters full.

After Owen moved to
Quincy in the l^HO's and
chose to "...lead an envi-
ronmentally responsible
life." interest in the cits ua's
inevitable.

She believed there were
enough interesting places in
Quincy so she asked herself.
"Why use the gas to go all
the way to the White .Moun-
tains'.'" or any other distant
attraction.

Owen presented her pro-
posal to then Mayor Thomas
Koch, then Park Commis-
sioner Koch encouraged the
program which will mark
its tenth year next spring.
She said Koch should be
credited for encouraging the
program .

Ayers Seeks Preservation Of Moon, Long Islands

Cont'd From Pa^e /
The city of Boston owns
Long Island and Moon Is-
land, but both are under
the jurisdiction of Quincy.
There have been conflicts
in the past between the two
cities, most notably in 1993,
when the Boston Police
used Moon Island for a gun
range without going through
the process of obtaining the
proper licensing from Quin-
cy.

Ayers' Bill 696 would
study the maintenance and
protection needs of Moon
and Long Island . via a mech-
anism for "communication
and a constructive alliance"
between the two cities to
improve Boston Harbor and
Quincy Bay.

Elected officials, envi-
ronmentalists, community
leaders from both Quincy
and Boston would make up
the commission. "With pas
sage of this legislation, city
and state officials will be
able to facilitate communi-
cation and cooperation be-
tween the two cities and an
era of productive dialogue,"
Ayers said.

The Long Island Bridge
was built in 1951 and has
been repaired four times
since 1990. Constant e.xpo-
sure to salt water and salty
air, though, will continue to
corrode the steel structure.
Ayers said. Engineering
consultants, hired by the city
of Boston, wrote in a recent
report that the loose rust can

conceal holes, making the
bridge worse off than it ap-
pears.

Ayers said foot-wide
holes in the Long Island
Bridge, which connects
Quincy with Boston Harbor
islands, have left the span
a safety risk to drivers who
pass over it and boaters who
pass beneath it.

"Given the increasingly
limited state budget, I be-
lieve it may be more prac-
tical to consider simply
dismantling the Long Is-
land Bridge and investigate
establishing ferry service
to the island, rather than in-
vesting millions of dollars
revamping the bridge time
and time again in a useless
effort with no long term sus-

tainable benefit," Ayers told
the Committee on Environ-
ment, Natural Resources
and Agriculture last week.

State officials have said
that the bridge is not a prior-
ity because it is not widely
used and funds for bridge
maintenance and recon-
struction are limited.

It is estimated the cost to
the commonwealth or city
of Boston for rebuilding the
bridge is between $40-$50
million.

"In these tough econom-
ic times," Ayers said, "1 am
certain that these millions of
taxpayer dollars can be more
effectively utilized."

The bill also addresses
environmental concerns.
Lead from discharged am-
munition from the shooting
range on Moon Island, as
well as disintegrating paint,
rust and other unknown

chemical agents are still
present.

Local activist and Squan-
tum resident Jim Stamos,
who fished from Long Island
as a boy, believes Ayers' bill
is a "fantastic" idea and the
island's recreational uses,
including road races and
bike races, are limitless.

"Now that Bruce has
brought it to the forefront
there'll be a lot of com-
mentary on It," Stamos said.
"The bridge has got to come
down."

Ayers believes the com-
mittee should investigate a
ferry service to Long Island
and that the island be ac-
cessible to local residents
for fishing and sight-seeing.
"Squantum and Quincy res-
idents should have access
to the island," said Ayers.
"Creating an adequate ferry
service would be a cost ef-

fective, safe means of trans-
portation."

Ayers pointed out when
work was being done on
Deer Island, thousands of
laborers were transported
daily by ferry. "This is some-
thing we could research and
possibly duplicate," he said.

Bill 3806 would preserve
the 2().3-acre Outer Brewster
Island for "public use and
enjoyment of the lands and
waters," Ayers said.

The island is one of 34
that make up the Boston
Harbor Island National Rec-
reation Area and is unique in
its environmental diversity
and its support of breeding
water birds, and other wild-
life.

The bill would prevent
future attempts by the LNG
industry to build on the is-
land. If a terminal had been
built. Ayers said it would
have restricted hikers and
boaters from nearby islands
and waters.

"House Bill 38(){> will
prevent future attempts by
the Liquid Natural Gas in-
dustry to convert a one-of-
a-kmd national treasure into
a precarious industrial site.
which will remam a national
security threat well beyond
our tenure in the legislature
of the commonwealth." Ay-
ers said.

Manet Health Center Volunteers To Be
Honored For Expanding Health Care Access

The Massachusetts

League of Community
Health Centers will rec-
ognize Manet Community
Health Center AmeriCorps
volunteers Morgan Kutz-
man and Tim Shih for their
efforts increasing health
care access for Quincy resi-
dents.

The two volunteers are
being recognized this week
during National Health
Center Week.

Kutzman and Shih are
among a group of volun-
teers stationed at Commu-
nity Health Centers across
the state as part of a part-
nership between the Mas-
sachusetts League of Com-
munity Health Centers and
the national AmeriCorps"
HealthCorps program. The

program offers volunteer
opportunities for adults of
all ages and backgrounds to
serve through local and na-
tional nonprofit groups fo-
cused on increasing health
care access for vulnerable
and underserved residents.

The HealthCorps pro-
gram is a strong example
of how volunteers services
can impact communities
in need, particularly dur-
ing this difficult economic
fime," said James W. Hunt,
president and CEO. 'it is
more important than ever
to attract future leaders into
the community health care
network."

Kutzman and Shih spent
the bulk of their service
time on providing outreach
and enrollment assistance

to local residents in need of
health insurance, and in op-
timizing access for Manet
patients to essential health
services. In addition, both
worked with clinical leaders
to improve chronic disease
management and preventa-
tive care for the Center's
diabetic and asthmatic pa-
tients, and within the Wom-
en's Health department.

Kutzman, who is in the
process of applying to med-
ical schools, has opted to
remain on staff at the health
center as a medical assistant
through next year.

The HealthCorps pro-
gram attracts young recruits
from diverse racial, eth-
nic and educational back-
grounds who have an in-
terest in community-based
health care.

IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN made to the strip of state-owned land located at the intersec-
tion of Stedman Street and Bryant Avenue. The traffic island is available 'for adoption" by a
local group or business interested in maintaining the site.

Improvements Made To Traffic Island
At Stedman St., Bryant Ave. Intersection

Following a number of
meetings and phone calls
with representatives from
the Massachusetts Highway
Department, Ward 4 Coun-
cillor Jay Davis announces
improvements have been
made to the strip of state-
owned land located at the
intersection of Stedman
Street and Bryant Avenue.

Over the past six years,
Davis said he has had to con-
tact the State on a number
of occasions each summer
and spring to get the grass
at the intersection mowed.
He said the grass grows so
high that drivers, waiting
to take a left onto Bryant
Avenue, cannot see the on-
coming traffic exiting from
the expressway. Davis said
that in the past it has been

The Council on Aging

but can't afford them.

information.

extremely frustrating to call
the State and wait weeks for
the grass to be cut.

"It had been an accident
waiting to happen," Da-
vis said. "Since the Patrick
Administration came into
office, representatives from
Mass Highway have been
very responsive to my re-
quests to have the grass
mowed. Now the state has
removed the grass and re-
placed it with mulch."

Davis credited Paul Sted-
man and Steve O'Donnell
from Mass Highway for
working with him to ad-
dress local needs.

"They have met with
me on a number of issues
including this intersection
and the Furnace Brook off-
ramp. The response has
been excellent."

The Furnace Brook off-
ramp from Interstate 93
South was recently updated
with paving, line markings
and a new caution light.
O'Donnell is the former
Quincy DPW Commis-
sioner.

Davis said the long-term
solution would be to have
a local business or group
maintain the area.

"It is a great location for
a local business to dress up
and maintain. If adopted,
the group or business will
also be able to place a sign
designating their mainte-
nance of the area."

Davis said he has appli-
cations from Mass Highway
for anyone who is interested
in adopting and maintaining
the area. For more informa-
tion, call 617-834-3945.

Phelan Asks City Council To End
TVack Dispute As 'First Order Of Business'

Koch Campaign Unveils
^Virtual Coffee Hours'

In a letter sent to City
Council members this week.
Mayoral candidate Bill Phel-
an called upon them "to take
action at their next meeting
to finally give our student
athletes a track at Pageant
Field, and end Mayor Tom
Koch's wrong-headed waste
of taxpayers' money."

"I respectfully urge you
to stop this waste, and force
the Mayor to move forward
with the construction of the
Pageant Field track - for the
sake of our taxpayers, our
students, and all the citizens
of Quincy," Phelan wrote.

"Too much taxpayer mon-
ey has been wasted already,
in a year when taxpayers are
reeling under Mayor Koch's
enormous tax increase, the
biggest tax increase in city
history," Phelan wrote.

"After a long public
process, the City Council
and the School Committee
both clearly weighed the
facts and voted correctly
on the track issue," Phelan
wrote to Council members.
"Over $100,000 was spent
on planning for the track on
the Pageant Field site, and
tens of thousands more has
been wasted on the Faxon

Field site, yet Mayor Koch
continues to push for the in-
appropriate and far more ex-
pensive Faxon site. City en-
gineers have estimated that
a track at Faxon Field could
cost millions more than a
Pageant Field track."

"As a result of Koch's
unilateral decision and his
misguided and mismanaged
crusade, taxpayer dollars
have been squandered and
the will of the people has
been ignored," Phelan said.
"Meanwhile, our kids have
been denied a track facil-
ity for years, and with it the
opportunity to compete in
important competitions that
could give them opportu-
nities for scholarships and
other benefits.

"The City Council voted
on June 18, 2007 for fund-
ing that could only be used
to build the track on Pageant
Field," the letter continued.
"Mayor Koch has ignored
that vote, and the vote of the
School Committee, and is
unilaterally pushing his own
private agenda."

The Faxon Field site has
been widely criticized as un-
suitable because of concerns
about added expense, envi-

ronmental issues, flooding,
parking, traffic, and student
safety and health issues be-
cause the site abuts the busy
Southern Artery.

Phelan's letter says that
"enough time and money
have been wasted" and asks
the City Council to take ac-
tion during its next meeting
to immediately stop Mayor
Koch from misusing more
taxpayer dollars and delay-
ing the construction of the
track at Pageant.

"Too much time and
money have already been
squandered by Mayor
Koch's mishandling of this
issue," Phelan wrote to the
Council. "Further delay
means we risk losing yet
another construction season,
and our student-athletes will
lose yet another opportunity
to compete."

The School Committee
voted July 14, 2008 against
building the track on Faxon
Field. The City Council
voted June 18, 2007 to ap-
propriate money for the site-
specific purpose of building
a track on Pageant Field.
The Park and Recreation
Board also voted for a track
at Pageant Field in 2007, but
that Board was dissolved by
Mayor Koch and replaced by
a Board that he hand-picked,
which rubber-stamped his
decision, Phelan said.

Phelan's letter to City
Council members was sent
August 9th. A copy of the
letter appears on the cam-
paign website:
www.taxpayersforphelan.
com.

Mayor Tom Koch this
week unveiled a new series
of Internet videos taken
straight from question-and-
answer sessions with resi-
dents in which the Mayor
talks direcdy about the
problems he said he inher-
ited, the work done to date
to fix those problems, and
his vision for the future.

The first installment of
the Koch Campaign's "Vir-
tual Coffee Hours," features
several three- to four-minute
segments of the mayor dis-
cussing the millions of dol-
lars in hidden deficits he
inherited, the $46 million in
additional costs for the new
Quincy High School, and
the $32 million "disaster,"
referring to the Honeywell
energy program that is now
the subject of a state investi-
gation, Koch said.

"The people of this city
deserve truthful answers,
not dishonest attacks," Koch
said. "This mismanagement
cost the millions upon mil-
lions of dollars, and threat-
ened our future stability.
We still have not heard any
answers from my opponent -
only bitter, dishonest attacks
- two years later."

The videos are available
on Koch's website, www.
mayortomkoch.com, and
via YouTube by searching
for the mayortomkoch chan-
nel . Koch said the campaign
will be continually adding to
the library with the hopes of
having answers available
via the Internet on "every
question conceivable."

"We are talking directly
to as many people as pos-
sible, so this is just one more

way for us to get the honest
answers out there," Koch
said, specifically mention-
ing last year's tax bill and
the reasons for it.

"We stood before the
City Council with an open
book and highlighted what
we were left and said at that
time what it would mean for
us to right our City's ship
just four months after taking
office," Koch said.

"We talked about $5 mil-
lion inappropriately shifted
to the Water and Sewer fund
to pay for public safety. We
talked about the $4.1 million
in costs for the Honeywell
project that had to be added
to the taxes. We talked about
the $4.7 million unfunded
debt payments, unfunded
contracts, and misused re-
serves that threatened our
future, and we talked about
how we are working to end
the "credit-card" approach
to government."

In the first video, Koch
notes that his opponent bla-
med other officials and for-
mer Mayor James Sheets for
"everything under the sun
for six years," but has ne-
ver taken responsibility for
his own management of the
City.

In the videos, Koch de-
tails his opponents attacks
on state officials and mis-
management by the pre-
vious administration that he
said led directly to the City
losing 90 percent state reim-
bursement for the construc-
tion of Quincy High School,
Central Middle School and
Steriing Middle School and
the "total" lack of oversight
that led to millions of dol-
lars in inflated bills on the
Honeywell energy deal, a
$32 million contract mean
to save money by fixing
City buildings that will ul-
timately cost more than
$60 million through finance
charges and a maintenance
deals, Koch said.

The "Virtual Coffee
Hour" also includes seg-
ments on working together
with City unions to save
$10 million on health insu-
rance; joining forces with
the towns of Braintree and
Weymouth on a cost-saving
trash contract; moving for-
ward with the Quincy Cen-
ter redevelopment project;
and the community-wide
effort to finish two long-
standing projects. Upper
Merrymount Park and a new
Senior Center.

THE ROOT CAUSE OF MOST FOOT PROBLEMS

In 20 years, many feet
have passed through my
door. The reason for pain
in the majority of them is
due to the obliteration of a
funnel-shaped space in the
rear of the foot called the
sinus tarsi, which Is located
between the talus and cal-
caneus.

Since we average up
to 15,000 steps a day the
biochemical pathology can
lead to devastating foot
problems. There are three
phases of one's gait: heel
contact (rigid foot), mid-
stance (mobile adaptor
foot), and push-off (rigid foot
again).

If the arch collapses dur-
ing mid-stance, the foot is
flexible when it should be
rigid. This can lead to bun-
ions, hammertoes, heel
pain, and more. The best

way to prevent the oblitera-
tion of the space is to put a
spacer or stent in the sinus
tarsi. I have been using this
new technology in my prac-
tice. It is done at a local
hospital in day surgery. The
patient is back in shoes or
sneakers in a week.

Check out www.hyprcure.
com. You will see a detailed,
easy-to-understand expla-
nation of this wonderful new
procedure. Ankle, knee, hip,
and back problems are also
greatly relieved when the
foot is properly aligned. Ear-
ly morning, night and daily
appointments are available
by calling 781-986-3668. All
patients are welcome. Our
offices are located at Milton
Medical Building, Suite 221 ;
the Randolph Medical Office
Building, 999 North Main St. ;
and Quincy Medical Center.

NORFOLK COUNTY District Attorney WUIiam Keating, right, thanks conference speakers
Kathi Meyer, whose daughter Taylor died after wandering away from an underage drinking
party and Cory Scanlon, who was convicted of the motor vehicle homicide of his two best
friends after a night of drinking.

Nine From Quincy Attend DA Keating 's
Underage Drinking Prevention Conference

Nine Quincy officials and
more than 225 education
and law enforcement leaders
from across Norfolk County
met with District Attorney
William R. Keating to learn
community strategies to pre-
vent the problems related to
underage drinking.

"Teens who drink, even
moderately, are much more
likely to be injured in car
crashes, become victims
of sexual assault or injure
their futures," District At-
torney Keating said after
the conference. "Having so
many representatives from
the police and schools atten-
ding this conference clearly
demonstrates how seriously
Quincy takes this threat to
its young population."

Youth Counselor Shane
Abboud, Arlene Goldstein
from Impact Quincy, school
nurse Kristin Houlihan and
nurse leader Jane Kisie-
lius attended with Detective
Lieutenant Patrick Glynn,

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.

Lieutenant Peter Turowski,
Detective Sgt. Jennifer Tap-
per and community police
Officers James D'Entremont
and Kent Yee from the Quin-
cy PD.

District Attorney Keating
detailed research findings
that in some 90 percent of
acquaintance rape, one or
both of the parties involved
have been drinking. And
that automobile crashes are
the number one killer of
Americans under age 24.

The conference, organi-
zed by Keating, started with
Harvard Medical School
Dr. Marisa Silveri, detai-
ling research on the effects
of alcohol on the adolescent
brain. Dartmouth Medical
School professor Dr. Mar-
tha Straus then focused on
"Girls, Crisis and Substance
Abuse." Cory Scanlon, who
was convicted for the motor
vehicle homicide of his two
best friends and Kathi Mey-
er, whose daughter Taylor
died last fall after wande-
ring away from an underage
drinking party, dramatically

shared the personal conse-
quences to offenders and
victims. Attorney Richard
Campbell warned of the
financial and legal conse-
quences to homeowners
who host or provide alcohol
to underage drinkers.

"The conference was de-
signed so that we look not
from the narrow perspective
associated with our day-to-
day jobs, but look compre-
hensively, and recognize
how difficult this problem
can be," District Attorney
Keating said.

A video featuring Cory
Scanlon's story, produ-
ced by District Attorney
Keating 's office, and ad-
ditional underage drinking
resources are available at
www.norfolkda.com.

The conference, held
recently in Wrentham, was
made possible by U.S. De-
partment of Justice funding
provided through the Mas-
sachusetts Executive Of-
fice of Public Safety and
Security's Highway Safety
Division.

BTIMMEK

By Samantha Mazzotta

What's Love Got
to Do With It?

Q, Last weekend, my
• husband and I found
a house that we fell in love with.
It's a bank-owned property,
and has been vacant for some
time -- meaning that it has
sustained some vandalism and
the exterior lawn and bushes
are overgrown. Tm sure with
a little TLC we can restore it
to good condition. Do you have
any tips for first-time buyers
making home improvements?
- Laura in upstate New York

A^The most important
• thing at this stage of
the home-buying process is to
tread carefully, get as much in-
formation on the property as you
can. and make sure all your i's
are dotted and t's are crossed.
And. even though you're in love
with the property, be prepared to
walk away if the sale terms can't
be agreed upon or if the scope of
the needed repair work rises past
the cost and effort you're willing
to put into it.

I recommend you work with
a real -estate agent, if you haven't
contacted one already. You'll
also want to retain a building
inspector and a real-estate attor-
ney, once you decide to make an
offer on the house.

The agent can lead a walk-
through of the house so you
can view it from top to bot-
tom. Agents will disclose any
known issues with the property,
like water damage — although a
problem with bank-owned prop-
erties is that agents often don't
know any more about the house
than you can learn in the walk-
through. So bring a notebook, a

flashlight and a camera to record
gcxxl and bad impressions of the
house.

A good agent also can look
for similar properties for you
and will help you through the
entire buying process.

A building inspector does a
more thorough examination of a
house and its systems ~ plumb-
ing , electrical , heat and structure
- and provides a report prior to
the sale. Many problems aren't
seen during a walk-through, so
this report can be invaluable
when negotiating the sale. And
a real -estate attorney can pro-
vide additional advice - and
ferret out information about the
house that may not have been
disclosed.

Finally, take a realistic as-
sessment of the home-improve-
ment work that the property will
need. Do you have the time and
skills to do the.repairs yourself
Do you have the funds to hire
a contractor for complex jobs?
Can the repairs be staggered
over time?

In short, take the time to re-
search the house and the local
market as thoroughly as possi-
ble, and don't let love blind you
to possible problems.

HOME TIP: The increasing
number of bank-owned proper-
ties can mean good deals for
home buyers, but unless you're
swimming in money, make only
educated, informed decisions
and work closely with an agent.

repair tips to homeguru2000@

Patrick-Murray Administration
Announce Record Year For MassHousing

Governor Deval Patrick
announces that MassHous-
ing had its best lending year
in state history in fiscal year
2009, providing more than
three-quarters of a billion
dollars for affordable hous-
ing.

The landmark year was
due to a surge in lending
to first-time homebuyers.
They have flocked to Mass-
Housing's 30-year fixed
rate-mortgages with low
downpayment requirements
- a feature that has virtually
disappeared from the pri-
vate lending market in the
wake of the mortgage lend-
ing crisis.

"Providing quality af-
fordable housing for work-
ing people is a critical part
of our plan to strengthen our
economy and our communi-
ties," Gov. Patrick said.

"MassHousing is helping
thousands of low and mod-
erate-income homebuyers
get a toehold in the middle
class."

"The MassHousing loan
has proven to be a tremen-
dous incentive for first-time
homebuyers," said Lieuten-
ant Governor Tim Murray.
"The surge in lending shows
that this tool is truly assist-
ing families with the means
to afford their first home."
Agency- wide, Mass-

Housing made a total of
$753.2 million in loans last
fiscal year, an increase of
7.3% over last year's total
of $702 million and nearly
5% more than the previous
Agency record of $720.5
million set in fiscal year
2007.

Approximately $506
million of last year's loans
went to more than 2,600
Massachusetts borrowers
to buy or refinance a home.
Lending to homebuyers was
up 8.5% over the last fiscal
year, and up 92% from just
3 years ago.

MassHousing Executive
Director Thomas R. Glea-
son attributed the Agency's
strong performance over the
last several years to a two
critical factors.

"Certainly one of the
reasons we did so well in
home ownership lending
is that we are one of the
only lenders still offering
low- and no-downpayment
options," Gleason said.
"We've also had consistent
access to capital, so we have
money to lend, and with
those two factors combined,
we've managed to double
our market share in the last
18 months alone."

MassHousing's mort-
gage insurance fund also
had a record year. The

fund — which private lend-
ers often tap into to insure
some of their affordable
"portfolio loans" - guaran-
teed nearly $140 million in
non-MassHousing loans, an
increase of 183% from last
year's total of $49.2 mil-
lion Those loans, financed
with the banks' own capital,
are affordable to buyers with
modest incomes, but would
not have been made without
the MassHousing insurance.
In addition to afford-
able home mortgage loans,
MassHousing also finances
apartment buildings where
at least 20% of the units are
affordable to lower income
renters. MassHousing's fis-
cal year 2009 lending for
rental housing accounted
for approximately $ 1 07 mil-
lion, which was a significant
achievement given the dif-
ficult rental housing market
conditions.

About MassHousing
MassHousing (The Mas-

sachusetts Housing Finance
Agency) is an independent,
quasi-public agency created
in 1966 and charged with
providing financing for af-
fordable housing in Massa-
chusetts. The Agency raises
capital by selling bonds
and lends the proceeds to
low- and moderate-income
homebuyers and homeown-
ers, and to developers who
build or preserve affordable
and/or mixed-income rental
housing. MassHousing does
not use taxpayer dollars to
sustain its operations, al-
though it administers some
publicly funded programs
on behalf of the Common-
wealth. Since its inception,
MassHousing has provided
more than $5.6 billion for
rental housing and more
than $4.8 billion for hom-
eownership.

A Job Well Done

On Thursday, July 23, at approximately 11:30 a.m.,
members of the Quincy Police Drug Unit took part in
the execution of a search
and arrest warrant on Chub-
buck Street. Members of the
Drug Enforcement Adminis-
tration (DEA) were also pre-
sen.

Two occupants of the home
were immediately handcuffed,
given their Miranda Rights
and a copy of the search war-
rant. As the warrant was being
executed. Detective Duran,
who was covering the exterior
of the home, observed a UPS

delivery truck drive by the residence. The Detective
knew the driver from past incidents and knew that this
was also his route.

Once the building was secured and the search under-
way. Detective Duran went inside to assist in the evi-
dence collecfion. Detectives immediately found in plain
view a clear plastic baggie with 35 green pills believed to
be Oxycontin, estimated street value at $2800.

In the living room area, the detectives noticed that the
suspect's computer in the living room was logged
onto the UPS Tracking Information web page, showing
that a package delivery from UPS was expected for one
of the residents now in custody. The detectives monitored
the screen and noted that the package status changed to
"Delivered" at 12:47 P.M. and signed by one of the resi-
dents in custody.

Members of the Quincy Police and the Drug Enforce-
ment Administration were on scene from 11:29 a.m. "un-
til about 1:38 p.m. and at no time were deliveries made to
the residence. At about 1:25 p.m., while outside the resi-
dence, detectives observed a UPS truck traveling east on
^Chubbuck Street. The detectives and DEA agents jumped
in a cruiser and stopped the truck, driven by the same
employee seen earlier driving by the house.

The driver was advised of his rights per Miranda
to which he stated he understood. When asked about
the package delivered to the suspect home, the driver
first said he gave the package to an un-named female
on Chubbuck Street whom he believed lived at the resi-
dence, but when asked to show where the person signed
for the package, the driver first stated that the female
didn't sign for it and then said she did, but couldn't find
the information on his handheld computer.

After a few moments, the driver said that he knows the
male suspect at the house and he had purchased Perco-
cet tablets in the past from him five and ten times while
inside the house. He also said that he had a package to
deliver to the male suspect at the house- and knew that it
contained prescription medication. He also stated that the
male suspect phoned him today and asked him if he could
deliver the scheduled package to the house "early."

A check of the driver's phone under "Received
Calls" showed an incoming call from the male suspect's
cell phone. The driver told the Detectives that when he
turned from Washington Street onto Chubbuck Street
at 11:29 a.m. as previously mentioned, he saw members
of the Quincy Police and DEA in front of the residence
and got "nervous." Instead of stopping at the house with
the package, he continued westbound on Chubbuck
Street. The driver then said that he phoned a female friend
and told her what had just happened and set up a meeting
with her on Edinboro Road.

The driver then gave the female friend the package
to hold for him. The driver revealed that the female
friend agreed to hold the package and was aware that the
UPS package she took possession of contained prescrip-
tion medication. The driver told the detectives he was
willing to get the UPS package from her, then called her
to meet him at the Pizza Hut.

Soon after, the female friend pulled into the lot where
she was confronted by detectives. Under the seat, detec-
tive Ryan retrieved an opened yellow shipping envelope.
Inside the envelope was a prescription bottle contain-
ing 66 Oxycodone tablets. A small amount of cocaine was
also discovered inside the prescription bottle.

The yellow shipping envelope was addressed to the
male suspect at his Chubbuck Street home. The prescrip-
tion was for his wife.

The UPS driver and his female friend were then
placed into custody and advised of the charges. A further
search of her car showed a plastic sandwich baggie con-
taining a green leafy substance believed to be marijuana.
In the trunk of the vehicle, detectives found three sand-

Militia Earn Huge Victory
Over Bridgewater

- >>C<<^</CKX/OX^.

^ Sun Sports

By JOE REARDON

With the bye week fast
approaching and the Quincy
Militia in danger of faUing
out of the Eastern Football
League race in a hurry,
the last thing they needed
was a match-up against the
chest-thumping, undefeated
Bridgewater Gladiators.

Guess again.

The Militia pounced on
two big Bridgewater penal-
ties in the closing minutes
and was solid on defense
when it had to be to edge
the Gladiators 24-21 at Vet-
erans Memorial Stadium.
The victory was enormous
for Vaughn DriscolTs club
in its inaugural season in
the EFL. Quincy knocked
Bridgewater from the ranks
of the unbeaten (4-1) and
upped its own record over
.500 (3-2) to put the skids on
a two-game losing streak.

Quarterback Matt Boyle
completed 9-of-16 passes
for 204 passes and a touch-
down, while tight end Alex
Perrone made a pair of big
catches late in the game, in-
cluding the game-winning
catch with 5 1 .7 seconds left
to seal the victory.

More importantly, the
grumbling that goes along
with losmg was gone and
chances are another defeat
would have been disas-
trous after coming up on
the short end the past two
week against Clinton (15-
0) and defending champion
Charlestown (34-6).

"We were falling apart
inside," said Driscoll. "I had
to get them back together
as a team. They stepped it
up. This is our house and
Bridgewater was coming in
our house. We really had to
take it to them."

Quincy put together a
strong drive on its first pos-
session with quarterback
Matt Boyle bolting for 13
yards and fullback Denniel
Falconei busting a 15-yard
gain to give the Militia a
first down at the Bridgewa-
ter 12-yard line. Will Moore
booted a 24-yard field goal
with room to spare, four
plays later, and the Militia
had the 3-0 lead.

Bridgewater stormed
back on its first possession
and needed just four plays
to take the lead. Quarterback
Matt Letoumeau put a pass
into Vincent Ventosi's hands
for a 52-yard gain down the
right sideline to give the
Gladiators a first down at
Quincy 's 11. Running back
Mike Masse scampered in
from the 6 and Rick Witt
added the point-after kick
for a 7-3 Bridgewater lead.

The Militia lost fumbles
on its next two possessions,
but the Gladiators weren't
able to break the game open

FOOTBALL

Quincy - 24
Bridgewater - 21

because Quincy made some
huge plays to stay within
striking distance.

Defensive lineman Jo-
seph Kearney pounced on a
loose ball to give the Gladi-
ators great field position at
the Militia 49-yard line. Le-
tourneau completed passes
of seven yards to Vincent
entosi and an 1 1-yard strike
to Eddy Constant and the
Gladiators looked to be on a
roll to the Militia end zone.

The momentum switched
in a hurry, though, as line-
backer Chris Tufo stuffed
Masse for a yard loss and
defensive lineman Greg
Ryan chased Letourneau
for a 12-yard loss on a sack.
Tufo was in the mix again
when he picked off a Le-
tourneau pass.

Quincy continued hav-
ing trouble holding onto the
ball with a nice drive from
its own 25 being wiped out
with a fumble inside the
Bridgewater 12-yard line,
but went into the half trail-
ing by just four points.

A quirky pass play and
a nifty run by running back
A.J. McLaughlin led to
Quincy moving ahead on
its first possession of the
second half. Sitting at the
Bridgewater 49-yard line,
Boyle faded back to pass
and threw down into the
right flat. A Gladiator de-
fender swiped at the ball
and Milton made an acro-
batic grab off the deflec-
tion for a 29-yard gain. On
the next play, McLaughlin
switched gears on a sweep
play around the left side and
went in untouched for a 20-
yard score. Moore drilled
the kick for a 10-7 Quincy
lead.

Some sloppy tackling on
Quincy's part gave Bridge-
water the lead right back
when tight end Jeremy
Chumack broke away from
two Militia defenders after
hauling in a Letomeau pass
down the right sideline for
a 55-yard score and a 14-
10 lead with 1:04 left in the
third.

To its credit, Quincy re-
mained unflustered and con-
tinued to go at Bridgewater.
Boyle completed a 67-yard
pass play to Milton and
McLaughlin capped the 14-
play, 95-yard drive, when
he scampered in from a yard
out. Moore's kick was per-
fect and Quincy retook the
lead 17-14 with just 4: 1 1 re-
maining in the game.

Letoumeau picked Quin-
cy's secondary apart on its
very next possession, com-
pleting 4-of-5 passes for 41

yards. Fhe biggest being
a 5 -yard strike to tight end
Justin Council with 1:50
remaining for the 21-17
Bridgewater lead.

That was it for the Gladi-
ators putting points on the
board, however, as Quincy
took over and dominated
the remainder of the game.
Two consecutive personal
fouls by the (iladiators.
one coming on a big, 20-
yard pass completion from
Boyle to Alex Perrone gave
the Militia a first down at
Bndgewater's 22.

Driscoll emphasized to
his team to avoid getting
mouthy with the Bridge-
water team and ignore any
of Its comments it hoped
to use to rattle the Militia
with. Quincy didn't bite and
it was the Gladiators who
became frustrated late in the
contest.

"They lost their heads
a little bit," said Driscoll.
who has nothing but admi-
ration for the Bridgewater
team, many of its players
who he has coached in the
past. "They made two huge
mistakes.

"But that's a great fran-
chise and a great bunch of
guys."

Boyle went to Perrone
again on the very next play
for the scored. Moore's kick
made it 24-21, Quincy.

Letourneau went to the
air on the Gladiators' final
drive, but there was nothing
there with the Militia backs
in their prevent defense.
Letourneau did force a pass
to Constant for an 1 1 -yard
gain, but the next pass fell
incomplete and the interior
linebacker made a great play
on the next pass, diving to
getting his hand on the ball
and knocking it wide. Mil-
ton ended the Bridgewater
drive with an interception.

"We were playing in a
prevent," said Driscoll. "We
were bending, not break-
ing."

Defensive coordina-
tor Kevin Callahan didn't
mind the completed passes
by the Gladiators as long as
the Militia kept the plays in
front of them. "We were in
a prevent defense so we sat
back and protected the end
zone," said Callahan.

The Militia will have a
bye this upcoming weekend
and will travel to Exeter.
NH to play the Seacoast Vi-
pers at 1:00 p.m. on August
23. The teams next home
game is set for August 29

Weymouth All-Stars Defeat Quincy 15 -year Olds, 1-0, in Championship Game

9"" Annual Patrick White
Jimmy Fund Tournament Raises $20,000

By SEAN BRENNAN

In a thrilling conclusion
to the 9'*' Annual Patrick
White Jimmy Fund Baseball
Tournament, which was held
■ a Quincy 's Adams Field last
week, the 15-and-underteam
from Weymouth defeated the
15-year old Quincy team,
1-0, to earn the tournament
fide.

The annual event, which
has been held over the years
in memory of Quincy 's Pat-
rick White who passed away
in the fall of 2005 after a
lengthy and courageous six-
year batde with Rhabdomy-
osarcoma, a form of tissue
cancer, included six teams
from all over the South
Shore and included two en-
trants from Quincy.

In the championship
game, held last Wednesday
at Adams Field, Quincy 's Joe
Alibrandi and Weymouth's
Sam McCay engaged in a
"^ classic pitchers duel. Both
Alibrandi and McKay al-
lowed just three hits and
no earned runs. Weymouth
would score the game's only
run in the first inning as Jon
Wilson reached base via an
error; he stole second base
and scored on a PJ McElroy
RBI base hit.

The 1-0 loss to Wey-
mouth in the final game of
the tournament ended up be-
ing the only loss Quincy 's
15-year olds would have all

week long. In earlier games,
pitchers Tim Liuzzo, Bob
Kozlowski and Sam Lawlor
all earned victories on the
mound. Kozlowski, Lawlor
and Adam Nazzaro were the
hitting stars throughout the
tournament for Quincy.

The city's other team, a
collection of talented 14-
year old all-stars finished
the 9*^ Annual Patrick White
Tournament with a 3-1
overall record. The team's
lone loss was to the 15-year
old Quincy team. The high-
light of the week for the
14-year-old team was Bill
Campbell's two highlight-
reel -diving catches in the
sixth inning of the Quincy v.
Quincy game.

This year's tournament,
through the work of dedicat-
ed volunteers, an extensive
donor base and the participa-
fion of the eight teams, con-
tinued the success of raising
money for the Dana-Farber
Jimmy Fund. Over $20,000
was raised this year, placing
the nine-year total raised at
$183,000.

As in year's past, family,
friends and past teammates
of Patrick White volunteered
to work at the concession
stand, announce the games
and toss out ceremonial first
pitches. Paul White and Bob
Griffin, tournament co-di-
rectors, expressed their grat-
itude to all those who made

"From a financial per-
spective we reached our
goal of raising $20,000, and
that includes having a Friday
night rain out. It is a credit
to the fans who come out
every year in support of this
great event," Griffin said.
"The tournament was also a
success because of the con-
tinued support from teams
outside of Quincy. Teams
from Weymouth, Braintree,
Hingham and Scituate have
participated every year and
we couldn't hold this tour-
nament without these teams
being involved. It was a suc-
cessful year."

Members of the 15-year
old all-star finalist team
from Quincy included Dan
Higgins, Mike Stille, Jus-
fin**Coscia, Bob Kozlowski,
Adam Nazzaro, Dennis Sul-

livan, Joe Alibrandi, Sam
Lawlor, James Dunn, Ed
McDonough, Torrey Gusfin,
Tim Liuzzo, Andrew Ro-
ganfino, John Fisher, Zach
Steams and Ryan Doherty.

Members of the Quincy
14-year old all-star team in-
cluded Nick McGaughey,
Bill Campbell, Ryan Young,
Chris Kerin, Coleman
McLarron, Alex Loud, Mike
Steele, George Whitley, Mike
Alibrandi, Colin Edgerly,
Tom Garland, Alex Heffer-
nan, Thanapat Songsit, Dan
Gould and Pat Gould.

This 14-year old all-star
team finished the tourna-
ment with a 3-1 record and
ended their 2009 season
with a 16-6-1 overall record,
including a 9-2-1 record in
regular season play.

PATRICK TiiilE

the 9* Patrick White Jimmy
Fund Tournament a success
again.

"The tournament contin-
ues to be a success because
it is a community effort,"
said Griffin. "It brings to-
gether many of Patrick's
family, friends, and former
teammates. We don't even
advertize the event, people
who read about the tourna-

ment just come out and vol-
unteer."

Griffin also expressed
thanks to the fans that came
out in support of the Patrick
White Jimmy Fund Tour-
nament and the dedication
of the teams from outside
of Quincy who continue to
come to Adams Field ev-
ery year to take part in the
event.

Tips To Minimize Colds And Flu

(NAPS)- The Centers
for Disease Control esti-
mates that nearly -22 million
school days are lost to the
common cold every year.
Ihis is no surprise to moms,
according to a surve> con-
ducted by Braun Research.
Nine in 10 moms agree that
other children who go to
school with cold or flu vi-
ruses have caused their child
to get sick.

To share some easy strat-

egies for minimi/.ing eKp<»^
sure to cold and flu bugs, the
Kleenex brand has teamed
up with school nurse Jean
Orabeel. A mother of two
with over 30 years of experi-
ence in the health care field.
Grabeel sees thousands of
students each year,

"While Its true that cold
and flu viruses are their
worst from October through
March, it's important to re-
member that bugs are out

there all sear.'" said Cjrabeel
"In lact. the .National As-
sociation of School .Nurses
found that nearlv 70 percent
of 2008 student illnesses
didn't happen during the
tvpical' cold and flu sea-
son."

Here are some tips Jean
recommends practicing

• Wash your hands olten

Screen for Alzheimer's, Save Millions

In a recent study pub-
lished in Alzheimer's & De-

medicine at the UW School
of Medicine and Public
Health, and UW public-pol-
icy researcher David Weim-
er calculated the financial
consequences of not provid-
ing two interventions: early
screening for Alzheimer's
disease and caregiver sup-
port. The lack of such in-
terventions means that the
burden of Alzheimer's care
falls largely on the health-

care system (primariK in the
form of long-term care).

that people perceive little

Another argument for
early screening is that cur-
rent Alzheimer's medica-
tions appear to be more ef-
fective early in the disease
for some people. Sager said
the medications don't work
as well in advanced cases.

Data from the WAl's
memory clinics around the
state of Wisconsin show
that one out of five people
over the age of 65 w ho are
screened has unrecognized
cognitive problems.

TAKING A STAND AGAINST BACK PAIN

It you spend a good deal OF CHIROPRACTIC. we

of time in a stooped position,
you can avoid lower back pain
by taking frequent walking
and standing breaks. That is
the conclusion of researchers
who used a device known as
an "accelerometer" to measure
spinal posture in employees.
What came to the researchers'
immediate attention was that
employees who e.xpenenced
low back pain spent much more
time t)ent over forward from the
waist than those with no back
pain. It was found that spending
more time with their backs flexed
more than ten degrees resulted
in the highest incidence of back
pain. By changing their posture
frequently, employees were better
able to tight fatigue and reduce
strain on their backs.

Among people seeking back
pain relief alternatives, most
choose chiropractic treatment

a wide variety of conditions.

Fast Heartbeat
Sometimes a
Family Affair

DEAR DR. DONOHIK.
W hat Is SVT? What causes it.*
W hat is heart ablation?

My grandmother. my
mother and I all have had SVT
episodes. I required heart ab-
lation. - J J*.

ANSWER: -SVI- is short
for "supraventneular tach>-
cardia." Tachycardia is a last
heanbeat . "Supraventricular '
indicates that the fast beat arises
in the upper heart chambers,
the ones abtne (supra) the ven-
tricles, which are the heart's
pumping chambers. rh(,)se upper
chambers are the atria.

S\T covers many difterent
conditions. Since vou spiike ol
■"episodes," 1 a.ssume vou had
PS\T. paroxvsmal supraven-
tneular tachycardia - fast heart-
beating that comes on suddenly,
doesn't last ttxi long and slops
abruptlv.

Causes lor PS\"1 can inv olve
the little electnc generator that
delivers a small jolt of electnc!t\
that initiates the heartbeat. Or it
can come from an extra pathwav
that the electric impulse takes on
its way to the kwer heart cham-
bers. Both conditions can be
there from birth, and Knh can be
a lamilv aflair.one controlled bv
genes. It sounds like yours is the
genetic kind.

Medicines often can keep
supraventneular tachycardia
controlled. Vour treatment, abla-
tion, is a permanent cure Liter-
ally, "ablalion" means "a taking
away." In the case o( supraven-
tricular tachycardia, tissue that
imtiatcs the fa.st heartbeat is de-
stroved. That's done with a cath-
eter - a soft, thin tube advanced
into the heart from a surface
bkxxl vessel. Ihe catheter emits
radio waves. When it reaches
the place that gives rise Us the
last beats, the radio waves are

Every evening, mv v*ife and I
take a long nalk. Its our daily
exercise. I attract mosquitoes,
but she doesn't. Why? Is
there a medical explanation
for this? -L./*.

ANSWER: People who emit
more carK^n dioxide than others
draw mosquit(,>es to them The
mosquitoes are attracted by it

.Mosquito magnets also ha\c
tnher compounds on their skin
that entice mosquitoes. Choles-
terol on the skin seems to draw
them to a person Skin cholesterol

DEAR DR. DONOHIE:
1 am a carrot eater and have
been so for a long time. Some-
one told me that people who
eat lots of carrots get cancer. Is
that true? - ST.

ANSWER: That -someone"
has confused a message about
beta carotene, a substance found
in carrots ( and oiher fixxls ) It s a
precursor of vitamin A

Smokers should not take beta
carotene supplements It raises
their risk for getting lung cancer
You don't have to worry atx>ut

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Dealing with a difficult person
can be the kind of challenge you
Aries Lambs love. Or it could be
an energy-draining exercise in
futility. Be certain your goals are
worth your efforts.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
The Divine Bovine might be see-
ing red at having your crisis-res-
olution efforts overlooked. But
others know the truth, and they
can be expected to step forward
when the time comes.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
You should be well on your way
to finally making that imprtant
decision. Having the support
of loved ones will help when
crunch time comes. Keep a posi-
tive attitude.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Feeling uneasy about a move
might not mean you're having
a case of Cancerian wavering.
It could be your irmer sense is
warning you to reassess your
situation before taking action.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Your pride could get in the way
of admitting you might have
erred. Best to 'fess up now be-
fore a small mistake turns into a
big misunderstanding. Make the
weekend a special family time.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Trying to please someone
with a less-than-glowing opinion
of something you value could be
a waste of time . If you like it , stay
with it. The week's end brings an
answer to an old mystery.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) There might be time to
make a change. But be honest
with yourself: Is it what you real-

ly want, or one you feel pressured
into making? Your answer should
determine your next move.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) Change is dominant,
but so is caution: Proceed care-
fully, checking each step along
the way to avoid encountering
any unwelcome surprises that
might be lurking along your
path.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 2 1 ) It could be
a mistake to rely on someone to
keep his or her promise without
checking out previous perfor-
mances. What you leam now
could save you from a painful
lesson later.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Taking a strong stand
on an issue you feel is too impor-
tant to ignore could inspire oth-
ers to follow suit. The weekend is
a good rime to socialize with old
friends and make new ones.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Your sensitive na-
ture gives you an insight into the
problems of someone close to
you. Your offer of support could
be just what this person needs
to start turning his or her life
around.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Financial matters continue to
need even more careful analysis
than usual . Use caution with in-
vestment possibilities. A personal
relationship might take an unex-
pected turn by the week's end.

BORN THIS WEEK: You ap

predate the wonders of the worid
and enjoy sharing your delight
with others.

Decisions, decisions, decisions. . .
Life is one hectic round of decisions -
and none is harder than the one you
have to make in the split second when
the cafeteria line passes the dessert
counter!

Many people have difficulty in mak-
ing decisions. Some make decisions too
quickly and others too slowly. Some people make decisions
easily. There are others who appear to do nothing but
wring their hands and bite their fingernails when they are
confronted with the necessity of make a decision.

Every day, each of us makes decisions that determine
the direction in which our lives will move. No one, no mat-
ter how wise or how highly principled, can make the right
decision every time. To err is no disgrace. The disgrace lies
in not learning from our mistakes, not recovering from our
defeats, not picking ourselves up, brushing ourselves off
and trying again.

Yet, many of life's problems are insoluble.They just have
to be Uved with. And, yes, the problem of making decisions
is certainly one of these . . .

Koch: 'We Have A Contractual Obligation

City Must Cover
$2.7M For Quinn Bill

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Mayor Thomas Koch
said Monday that the city
will cover nearly the entire
Quinn Bill cost this year,
approximately $2.7 million
of the $2.9 million total,
but that will not change his
pledge of "no new taxes."

"We have a contractual
obligation." said Koch who
cited the city's contract with
the police union.

The contract terms re-

the Quinn Bill regardless of

2 Fire Dispatchers Disciplined
For Not Hearing 911 Call

By JOE REARDON

A 30-year veteran of the
Quincy Fire Department has
been reprimanded after he
didn't hear the 91 1 call for a
woman in labor last week.

Another dispatcher, cov-
ering a shift, will no longer
be assigned that duty at
the city's fire department's
headquarters again.

The penalties, handed
down by Quincy Acting
Fire Chief Joseph Barron
Tuesday afternoon, comes

on the heels of an Aug. 13
call, which was phoned in at
4:04 a.m.

Quincy Police and Fallon
Ambulance responded im-
mediately to the call at 32
Buckley St. in West Quincy.
The woman gave birth in
the apartment bathroom and
was then transported to the
Brigham & Women's Hos-
pital in Boston. B> the time
the fire department arrived,
the mother and baby were
on the way to Brighams.

"The cit>s response was
on time and the baby was
delivered successfully," said
Barron. "Clearly, we should
have responded."

It is standard procedure
for the fire department to
dispatch personnel when a
call of a woman in labor is
reported. The dispatch team.
Barron said, was prtimpt in
responding to a call about
30 minutes eariier.

CREATING THE ILLUSION

One way to make the most
of a diamond solitaire is to use an
illusion setting that supports the
diamond in prongs within a larger
surface of white gold that is, in
turn, supported in a larger setting.
Created by French jeweler Oscar
Massin in the 1860s, this style
creates the illusion of the diamond
being larger than it really is by
surrounding it with light-reflecting
metal that appears to be part of
the stone. The metal surrounding
the diamond usually has an
interesting design that evokes the
feeling of an heirloom. The halo
effect of an illusion setting can be
put to good advantage by creating
an appealing piece that looks
larger and more expensive than it

At Faxon Field

Timmins Asserts Track
Will Meet DEP Standards

B LAURA GRIFFIN

Plans for a high school
track facility at Faxon Field
are moving forward, accord-
ing to City Solicitor James
Timmins who is handling
the legal challenges to the
site.

"The track is on track."
Timmins said, suggesting
that the state will approve
the Faxon Field track plans
in the near future.

Mayor Thomas Koch
chose the Faxon Field track
location in 2008 shortly af-
ter his election, canceling
previous plans initiated by
his predecessor, Mayor Wil-
liam Phelan who sought a
track at Pageant Field.

Both sites have been con-
troversial.

At this time, the Faxon
Field site is being reviewed
by the state's Department of
Environmental Protection
(DEP) because of flood stor-
age issues.

"It's our belief we will
succeed in getting this
through..." Mayor Thomas
Koch said of the DEP re-
view.

"We believe that is a via-
ble place," Koch said of the
Faxon Field track location
and discounted some chal-
lenges to the site.

"It's a disappointment to
me because the kids have
been waiting for a track,"
said Koch. "Our kids de-
serve a new facility."

Quincy's high .school
students have not had an
regulation track facility for
nearly a decade and all track
meets must be held in other
venues.

Koch referred legal ques-
tions to Timmins' office
but said he believes Faxon
Field will meet all the re-

quirements as it has served
as a football practice field
and Softball field in the past
and offers track meet par-
ticipants access to the high
school facilities.

Timmins responded to
questions regarding an Au-
gust 10 request for data on
the Faxon Field site from
Jill Provencal, Environmen-
tal Analyst for DEP. Proven-
cal is on vacation this week.

Provencal wrote that the
applicant (the city) had not
demonstrated compliance
with the required standards
for flood storage at all el-
evations in the plans for the
track facility.

In that letter, Provencal
wrote that "...flood storage
must be provided at each el-
evation."

Timmins said the city's
contractor, Gale Associates,
would respond to the re-
quest with the required data
and said the letter does not
imperil the track plans.

"She's looking for an
analysis," said Timmins,
noting that Gale Associates
will provide the required
calculations.

Timmins said he expects
the DEP to issue a super-
seding Order of Conditions
shortly which would allow
the project to move for-
ward.

"They've been all over
this site because of the ear-
lier high school process,"
said Timmins, adding that
the letter represented a re-
quest for the final details.

One of the opponents of
the Faxon Field track is Paul
Kodad, Cifizen Group, who
is, also, familiar with the lo-
cation because of the origi-
nal high school proposal.

Kodad said he opposed

building a high school on the
property and, now, opposes
the track facility. He pointed
out that Provencal's letter
was identified as a Second
Information Request.

Timmins said that only
means Provencal's office
had asked for other informa-
tion during their review of
Faxon Field.

•'This is not a second re-
quest (for the same informa-
tion)," said Timmins.

"They have not even ap-
plied to the Army Corps (of
Engineers) which is neces-
sary (for approval)," said
Kodad of the federal agency
which oversees certain wet-
lands and flood zones.

Timmins said he has been
in contact with the Army
Corps of Engineers and they
will not review the plans

While Timmins expects
the DEP to approve the
track proposal, he said that
won't be the end of the chal-
lenges.

"I know they will ap-
peal it," said Timmins of
the Faxon Field opponents.
He adding that the issue will
then be subject to a review
and summary judgment.

A FIRE in a vacant building at 441 Quincy Ave. .Sunday aftern<M)n was set, according to Quincy
police. According to one witness, a man was seen going behind the building carrying a bucket
around 1:10 p.m. Smoke then began pouring from the r(K)f at about the same time, police said.
The building once housed the Arter\ Fruit Store. Firefighters quickly brought the blaze under
control after cutting padlocks on metal sheets co\ering the windows and d<K)rs to gain access to
the building which officials believe had been vacant for at least 30 years. The scene was exam-
ined by officials from the state's Fire Marshall Office. Fhom B\ Mk hael J iVhnrle\

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

•On Aug. 23, 1784, four

counties in western North
Carolina declare their in-
dependence as the state of
Franklin. In defiance of
Congress. Franklin survived
as an independent nation for
four years with its own con-
stitution, Indian treaties and
legislated system of barter
in lieu of currency.

• On Aug. 21, 1903,
America's first transconti-
nental auto race, stretching
from New York City to San
Francisco, is completed.
The race was finished by
Tom Fetch and M.C. Kar-
rup in two Model F Pack-
ards, which traveled an
average of 80 miles per day
for 51 days.

• On Aug. 20, 1911, a
dispatcher in the New York
Times office sends the first
telegram around the world
via commercial service.
The message left New York
at 7 p.m. After it traveled
more than 28,000 miles, be-
ing relayed by 16 different
operators, the reply was re-
ceived by the same operator
16.5 minutes later.

•OnAug. 19, 1921,TV
producer Gene Rodden-
berry, best known as the
creator of "Star Trek," is
bom in El Paso, Texas. Al-
though "Star Trek" ran for
only three years and never

placed better than No. 52 in
the ratings, Roddenberry's
sci-fi series became a cult
classic and spawned four
television series and nine
movies.

• On Aug. 22, 1935, au-
thor Annie Proulx is bom
in Norwich, Conn. Her
second novel, "The Ship-
ping News," about an out-
of-luck joumalist and father
who rebuilds his life after
moving to Newfoundland,
won the Pulitzer Prize.

• On Aug. 17, 1969, the
grooviest event in music
history — the Woodstock
Music Festival - draws to
a close after three days of
peace, love and rock 'n' roll
in upstate New York. A total
of 186,000 tickets had been
sold, but close to half a mil-
lion people showed up.

• On Aug. 18, 1977,
Gordon Sumner (better
known as Sting), Stewart
Copeland and Andy Sum-
mers give their first perfor-
mance as The Police at a
nightclub in Birmingham,
England. Sting, nicknamed
for a black and yellow
shirt he frequently wore to
his early gigs, was bom in
Newcastle, England. Before
becoming a full-time musi-
cian, he worked as a teacher
and ditch digger.

Election May Be Last For Voting System

SHEA

This fall may mark an end at the city's ballot box
and it has nothing to do with the candidates run-
ning for mayor, school committee and city council.

That's because City Clerk Joseph Shea hopes this
fall's city elections will be the last time Quincy voters
use the current balloting system.

The city has utilized the Eagle 3P
Opti-Scan voting method since the
Presidential Primary of March 1996.
But the machines are showing their
age and servicing them is becoming
an arduous task, the city clerk says.

"We'll stay in the opti-scan field
but update it considerably," Shea
says when discussing a replacement system. "I'm not
a fan of using touch-screens to cast ballots. There is
no back-up with touch-screens. There's no paper trail
with a touch screen."

Shea said a new opti-scan voting system could cost
the city around $2 million. He said he is seeking feder-
al and state assistance to help ease the financial burden
cost- wise. He's already written a letter to Secretary of
State William Galvin applying for state funding.

"I'm in conversations with Mayor Koch (about re-
placing the current system) and I have introduced this
topic at a city council budget hearing. We're going to
need a new system sooner rather that later. I hope to
have something in place by next year," the city clerk
says.

Shea said the current system is "still working fine
but it's out-dated and the election printer and supplier
doesn't service old machines."

Q

The city-wide preliminary election Sept. 22 will
cost the city between $80,000 and $85,000, according
to City Clerk Joseph Shea. The cost covers 200 elec-
tion workers to man the city's 30 polling precincts (by
law each precinct is required to staff a warden, clerk
and four election workers); 45 police officers; printing
ballots for the city's 55,000 registered voters; postings
and advertising; and programming election machines.

The preliminary election features a four-candidate
field for mayor and eight-candidates running for school
committee.

The mayoral contenders are incumbent Mayor
Tom Koch, former Mayor William Phelan and politi-
cal newcomers Joseph O'Malley, a letter carrier from
Houghs Neck; and Quincy Police Sgt. Paul Turowski,
also of Houghs Neck.

Voters will be asked to vote for one candidate for
mayor but the top two vote-getters will be nominated
and appear on the final election ballot Tuesday, Nov.
3.

The school preliminary election candidates are in-
cumbent Anne Mahoney, Matt Lockwood Mullaney, a
market manager for Harvard Pilgrim's Massachusetts
business; Rebecca Mc Williams, a licensed architect;
Karl Roos, who works in the pharmaceutical indus-
try; Michael Covais, a local attorney; Barbara Isola, an
assistant district attorney in Plymouth County; Emily
Lebo, director of Career and Vocational Education for

SHEETS

O'CONNELL

LaRAU

McGRATH

Boston Public Schools; and Steven Striffler, a local at-
torney.

Voters will be asked to vote for not more than three
candidates in the school committee preliminary elec-
tion. The top six vote-getters will advance to the gen-
eral election Nov. 3 and compete for three School
Committee seats.

Q
LOOKING AHEAD City Clerk Joseph Shea is
forecasting a turnout of about 30 percent for the pre-
liminary election Sept. 22. If that number holds true,
that figure would top the preliminary of 2003 but fall
well-short of 1989.

Twenty years ago - with an open mayor's seat -

four well-known
candidates were vy-
ing to succeed for-
mer Mayor Frank
McCauley who an-
nounced he would
not seek re-election
at his mid-term ad-
dress in January.

On the ballot
for the 1989 pre-
liminary were then
Councillors James
Sheets and Steve
McGrath, former
Mayor Joseph

LaRaia and Quincy businessman Peter O'Connell.
Turnout was 46 percent and Sheets and O'Connell
were nominated. Sheets would defeat O'Connell in the
final to become mayor and serve six terms until he was
unseated by Phelan in 2(X)1 .

The 2003 preliminary election was a three-way race
with incumbent Phelan seeking a second term. He was
challenged by Ward 6 Councillor Joseph Newton and
Quincy businessman Harvey Kertzman. Phelan and
Newton advanced to the final with Phelan winning his
second term.

Turnout that year was 24.4 percent.

G
VOTERS IN WARD 1 Precinct 2 will cast ballots
in a different location for the first time in 50 years next
month.

Shea said the polling precinct will move from the
Snug Harbor School to the adjacent Germantown
Neighborhood Center at 366 Palmer St. in time for the
Sept. 22 preliminary run-off election.

ANOTHER "SIGN" that election season is here:

Candidates will be allowed to place campaign signs
on commercial property beginning Sunday, Aug. 23.

Signs will not be allowed to be placed on residential
property until Saturday, Sept. 12.

Restrictions on political signage are outlined in City
Ordinance 17.32.080. The ordinance also calls for all
signs be taken down from both commercial and resi-
dential property within 72 hours after the Nov. 3 elec-
tion.

Eastern Nazarene College Offering Free Writing Workshops

Aspiring writers will have
a chance to have their work
reviewed and critiqued at a
series of free writing work-
shops offered by Eastern
Nazarene College beginning
in September.

To be held in the college's
Nease Library, the 90-min-
ute workshops will be held
on Tuesday evenings and
Saturday afternoons and are
open to the community.

At each session, writers
may bring four to six cop-
ies of a work in progress
for reading, discussion and
feedback, with sessions fa-
cilitated by ENC English de-
partment faculty and senior
creative writing students.

"This is a great oppor-
tunity for writers to receive
constructive feedback in a
welcoming and supportive
creative environment," said

English Professor Mari-
anna Krejci-Papa. "It's not
necessary, however, for
participants to bring works
for critique in order to par-
ticipate. Developing writers
can learn much simply by
participating in the reading
and discussion process."

The first writing work-
shop will be held from 7:30
to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 8
in ENC's Nease Library, 23

East Elm Ave., WoUaston.

Additional workshops
will be held from 2:30 to
4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 19
and 7:30 to 9 p. m. Tuesday,
Sept. 22.

Sessions will continue
throughout the school year.

sion or to receive a com-
plete schedule of upcoming
workshops e-mail marianna.

Scenes From Yesterday

QUINCY BAY. WOULASTON. QUINCY. MASSACHUSETTS

i.

THIS 1942 postcard shows the moored floats stretch-
ing out from the Wollaston Yacht Club into Quincy
Bay. All of the boats of that era were made of wood and
many were homemade, especially the skiffs and small
rowboats, but also many of the sailboats. There is one
powerboat shown on the left here but there were not
many outboard motor boats at the time. Gas rationing
during World War II had pretty much curtailed its use

for pleasure in anyway. In the days before marinas
there were hundreds of small boats in Quincy Bay.
Every night in the summer sailboat races were held
by the yacht clubs. Dozens of sails can be seen in the
distance here. Some of the popular classes of sailboats
were the Hustlers, Indians, IlO's and 210's, Catboats,
Thistles and Turnabouts. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail

Art Exhibit 'Breaks' Through
Stigma Of Mental Illness

Young adult*; from the
TRACS Program (Transi-
tion Resources and Com-
munity Supports) of South
Shore Mental Health invites
the community in viewing
"Break These Chains" to
reduce the stigma and nega-
tive stereotypes that affect
individuals living with men-
tal health issues.

The exhibit is on display
through Friday, Sept. 11 at
the Akillian Art Gallery,
Massasoit Community Col-
lege, Canton campus.

A reception will be held
from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesday,
Sept. 1 where photographers
and others involved in the
project will be available to

discuss the exhibit.

The exhibit will focus
on the photographers' ex-
perience of living with and
overcoming mental health
issues and the accompa-
nying stigma. The images
shown in the exhibit offer
insight to the world as the
young adults see and experi-
ence it. They hope the com-
munity will be moved by
viewing the exhibit and that
individuals and groups will
leave with more understand-
ing and hope for those who
combat these challenges.

Photovoice is a unique
blend of advocacy, self-dis-
covery, and photojournalism

involving the use of pho-
tography for social change.
It invites groups of people
who are rarely heard from
to use cameras and accom-
panying narratives to record
their lives and use this cre-
ative outlet to promote posi-
tive change in their commu-
nities.

Chief Warrant Officer James Freeman
Retires After 30 Years With Coast Guard

Pork Chops With Vinegar Peppers

There are a couple of restaurants around
that serve grilled pork chops with vinegar
peppers. And it is a favorite of many.

I picked up the pork chops and decided
to make my own vinegar peppers, very easy
and with a bit more flavor than the jarred
ones. The combination of the peppers over
the top of the chops is so delicious and if
you don't* have an outside or inside grill,
you can certainly fry them in a pan.

The following recipe serves about four
people, but two chops can be used as well.
Pork Chops with Vinegar Peppers
4 pork chops
salt and pepper to taste
garlic powder

3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons cider vinegar

2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce

2 medium sized green peppers (cut in
strips)

1 medium onion (sliced)
1 clove of garlic

3 tablespoons olive oil

First prepare the chops for grilling - 1
used salt, pepper garlic powder, the soy
sauce and a smidgen of oil, but any favorite
seasoning can be used.

In the hot oil, saute the garlic, onion and
then add the peppers. Cover and cook for
about 10 minutes. Add the two vinegars,
uncover and cook slowly until they are ten-
der.

Grill or saute the chops and then serve
with the peppers smothered over the top.
With that i served sweet potatoes and as-
paragus.

Schools Adopt Mayor's
Regional Strategy

Mayor Thomas Koch
said Tuesday that the Quincy
School Department is taking
a page from the city's inno-
vative regional trash collec-
tion contract that is saving
millions of taxpayer dollars
by launching a cost-saving
collaboration on custodial
supplies, air filters and light
bulbs.

The Quincy School De-
partment, Quincy College,
Hanover public Schools and
South Shore Regional Voca-
tional Technical School are
combining their purchas-
ing power to save money
on bulk items such as pa-
per towels, soaps and other
necessary supplies, officials
said.

"As we all work together
through these challenging
times, we must continue to
do everything possible to

save money and be more
efficient," Koch said. "We
are already seeing the ben-
efits of our trash contract,
an the School Department
deserves to be congratulated
for thinking creatively and
getting the most out of ev-
ery dollar."

Supervisor of Custodians
Kevin Segalla said the re-
gional bidding process will
save upwards of $50,000,
especially important since
purchase prices are rising
roughly 9 percent over last
year due to price increases
"for raw materials and gaso-
line.

"This collaboration has
already proved tremendous-
ly effective, and we are go-
ing to continue to look for
cost effective purchasing
models," Segalla said.

He said the School De-
partment is also purchasing
environmentally friendly
cleaning supplies for glass
and floors, another off- shoot
of the "green" trash collec-
tion contract implemented
last year.

The new contract signed
by Mayor Koch, Weymouth
Mayor Sue Kay and Brain-
tree Mayor Joseph Sulli-
van created what is called
a "single-stream recycling"
program in the city. The new
program boosted household
recycling by 700 tons in its
first year and reduce gar-
bage by 2,000 tons.

"We are very proud of
the strides we have made to
date and we are going to see
continued cost-savings and
increased recycling in the
years to come," Koch said.

Davis To Host Meeting Aug. 26 On
Residential Parking Sticker Program

Ward 4 Councillor Jay
Davis will host a neighbor-
hood meeting Wednesday,
Aug. 26 from 4 to 7 p.m.

Representatives from the
city's Traffic and Parking
Department and the Police
Department will be avail-
able to answer questions
about the program and help
residents apply for parking

Crew Cutz: A 'Good Old'
Modern Barbershop

Crew Cutz is a modern barber-
shop that gives a nod to the good
old days, located in the historical
Elks Lodge Building at 1212 Han-
cock Street in Quincy Center.

The shop decor is red and blue
and has touches of industrial metal,
which gives a retro feel. It has a
free Internet cafe, snacks, TV's and
plays customer music requests.

Crew Cutz offers the following
services: Haircuts for men, wom-
en & children as well as tanning,
massages, razor shaves, waxing,
coloring, and shoe shining. They
also carry a range of hair prod-
ucts, including American Crew.
The "crew" specializes in cutting

all types of hair, and styles range
from old-school to new-school
hairstyles. "Mohawks with designs
are coming back," says owner John
Smith. "Everything that was in the
past is sort of re-emerging."

Smith cut hair for several years,
while attending college and earning
his masters degree. After moving
to Quincy in 2007, Smith said he
realized he found a good place to
open his shop. "1 noticed that there
wasn't a barbershop that remained
open to accommodate working pro-
fessionals," he also said. "Quincy
is a good place for a barbershop
that can cater to a diverse group of
people."

Three Community Activists Shifting Roles

Three veteran commu-
nity adviKates are taking on
new responsibilities at City
Hall and the Quincy School
Department following the
retirement of Isabel Ventre,
who managed the School's
program assisting home-
less families for the last 15
years.

Linda Stice, the execu-
tive director of the Afford-
able Housing Trust and the
14-year head of the Mayor's
Commission On The Fam-
ily, has accepted an offer to
take over for Ventre, calling
it a "wonderful opportunity
to help Quincy families who
need it the most."

Stice will be succeeded
by Thomas Fabrizio, who

Department at City Hall and

professionally in this city
than Linda, Tom and Bri-
an," Koch said. "They have
given much to our commu-
nity over the years, and 1 am
proud they will each contin-
ue to play a vital role."

Fabrizio leaves his May-
or's Office post while the
city is in the middle of a ma-
jor overhaul in how resident
requests for services are
handled, in his first days in
office last year, Koch elimi-
nated the Constituent Servic-
es Department and shifted
its functions directly to the
Mayor's Office, downsizing
the number of employees in
the process. Last month, the
city launched a new web-
site, w wwiquiPcyina .gov,
with a streamlined new plat-
form to handle request's to
fill potholes, replace street
lights and dozens of other
city services.

Koch called having
someone to directly oversee
constituent requests a vital
component toward creating
"the more open, more re-
sponsive and more efficient
government we have talked
about for some time."

Buckley, most recently
the chief of Norfolk Coun-

BRIAN BUCKLEY

ty's RSVP senior volunteer
program, was also a youth
coordinator for the city in
addition to serving as El-
der Services director for 18
years. He also spent more
than 40 years as a part-time
coordinator for the Quincy
Recreation Department and
has been a high school and
college basketball coach for
31 years.

Members of the Afford-
able Housing Trust Com-
mittee recommended Fab-
rizio for the position, citing
his long-standing commit-
ment to social services and
housing issues in Quincy.
The committee is charged
with administering afford-
able housing projects in the
city as required by the City's
Inclusionary Zoning Ordi-
nance. Prior to his City Hall
work, Fabrizio was a social
worker for 17 years.

Stice, who served on the
Quincy School Commit-
tee for 16 years, said she
worked with "some truly
terrific people" during her
time on the City Hall side of
government, but added that:

"I am looking forward to
get back to the school sys-
tem," she said.

Cont 'd From Page I

The department monitors
police calls and responds to
"life threatening" situations.
The 911 calls go directly
to the police department in
Quincy. Calls of live fires go
to the fire department im-
mediately.

Barron said his focus
was on the call itself in the
investigation and the person
on the line was very calm.
The dispatcher told him it
was "muffled" because of
the noise in the office, Bar-
ron said.

Barron couldn't recall
an incident similar to last

Thursday's and is always
looking to improve on the
job. "After every incident
I've ever responded to I've
felt I could have done a bet-
ter job," he said.

Barron said he was not
going to make a rush to
judgment after the incident
because he respected the in-
tegrity of the two dispatch-
ers. Barron, who declined to
identify the dispatchers, was
to meet with Mayor Thomas
Koch and Police Chief Paul
Keenan this week to ad-
dress the matter further and
to identify ways to improve
communication.

Buying Friends' Alcohol Could Mean Fines, Jail

Cont 'd From Page I

Minors get their alcohol
from their homes and from
their older peers.

"That immediately gave
us the direction of trying
to address the issue," said
Rivera whose agency, also,
works with jX)lice officers
engaged in educating and
testing at liquor stores.

Once the results were in.
Impact Quincy distributed
information to 2000 parents,
cautioning them to reduce
access to alcohol in their
homes.

In a recent interview, Ri-

IMPACT QUINCY DIREC-
TOR Alejandro Rivera and
his agency are working to re-
duce underage drinking and
opoid overdoses in Quincy.

City Must Cover
$2.7M For Quinn Bill

Cont 'd From Page I

Bill costs.

The program known as
the Quinn Bill increases
the salaries of police offi-
cers who obtain advanced
degrees with a 10% bonus
for an associate's degree, a
20% bonus for a bachelor's
degree and a 25% bonus for
a master's degree. These bo-
nuses are added to the offi-
cer's base salary.

"We were aware that
it could be an issue," said
Koch, adding that the costs
were factored in to budget
projections.

The Quinn Bill bonuses
originated in the 1970's after
Congress approved funding
for law enforcement educa-

tion programs. Eventually,
254 of the states 350 plus
municipalities adopted the
program.

Some cities and towns
have refused to pick up the
state's tab as the agreement
is not part of their contracts.

While the increased
Quinn Bill costs will affect
the budget, Koch repeated,
"I am not increasing taxes."

"The numbers for July
seem to be firm. We're
holding the line across the
board." said Koch, noting
that local receipts appear to
be steady.

However, Koch said he
does expect additional bud-
get adjustments in the fall
and possibly mid-year.

vera stressed that the project
is not aimed at adults' drink-
ing or adults' use of alcohol,
but rather at protecting un-
derage children.

The agency's messages
to parents suggested that
they "keep track of liquor"
in the home and "Be mt)re
discreet (in storage) or lock
the liquor (cabinet)."

While parents were eas-
ily accessible via mail, the
agency still had to reach
young adults.

Step one was a meeting
with a focus group of young
adults, 21 years old to 27
years old.

According to Rivera,
the coordinators found
the young had almost no
knowledge of the Social Li-
ability legislation and most
said they wouldn't risk the
penalties to buy liquor for
younger peers.

"Unanimously, every-
body acknowledged that if
they knew the consequenc-
es, they would never had
done it," said Rivera.

gram Coordinator, at Impact

vey distributed in mid-June
to 2,4^>8 Quincy residents,
age 21-27. Nearly 7 percent
of the surveys or 169 were
returned and the findings
mirrored the statements at
the focus group.

Some 37% of the re-
sponders had seen an adult
provide alcohol to indi-
viduals under the age of 21
and more than 5(V/( had no
knowledge of the Social
Host Liability Law.

In addition, the respond-
ers were almost unanimous
in their concern regarding
violence, underage drinking
and minors' access to alco-
hol.

As for Quincy, about
27% said it would be "very
easy" for persons under
21 to obtain alcohol while
roughly 14% said it would
be difficult. The remaining
responders were neutral on
the question.

"I would be worried,"
said Rivera of the results.

professionally in this city
than l.inda, Tom and Bri-
an," Koch said. "They have
given much to our commu-
nity over the years, and 1 am
proud they will each contin-
ue to play a vital role."

Fabrizio leaves his May-
or's Ofhce post while the
city is in the middle of a ma-
jor overhaul in how resident
requests for services are
handled, in his first days in
ofhce last year, Koch elimi-
nated the Constituent Servic-
es Department and shifted
its functions directly to the
Mayor's Office, downsizing
the number of employees in
the process. Last month, the
city launched a new web-
site, w WW .ciumcymii .iiy y ,
with a streamlined new plat-
form to handle requests to
hll potholes, replace street
lights and dozens of other
city services.

Koch called having
someone to directly oversee
constituent requests a vital
component toward creating
"the more open, more re-
sponsive and more efficient
government we have talked
about for some lime."

Buckley, most recently
the chief of Norfolk Coun-

BRIAN BUCKLEY

ty's RSVP senior volunteer
program, was also a youth
coordinator for the city in
addition to serving as Kl-
der Services director for 18
years. He also spent more
than 40 years as a part-time
coordinator for the Quincy
Recreation Department and
has been a high school and
college basketball coach for
31 years.

Members of the Afford-
able Housing Trust Com-
mittee recommended Fab-
rizio for the position, citing
his long-standing commit-
ment to social services and
housing issues in Quincy.
The committee is charged
with administering afford-
able housing projects in the
city as required by the City's
Inclusionary Zoning Ordi-
nance. Prior to his City Hall
work, Fabrizio was a social
worker for 17 years.

Stice, who served on the
Quincy School Commit-
tee for 16 years, said she
worked with "some truly
terrihc people" during her
time on the City Hall side of
government, but added that:

"I am looking forward to
get back to the school sys-
tem," she said.

Cont'd From Page I
The department monitors
police calls and responds to
"life threatening" situations.
The 911 calls go directly
to the police department in
Quincy. Calls of live hres go
to the fire department im-
mediately.

Barron said his focus
was on the call itself in the
investigation and the person
on the line was very calm.
The dispatcher told him it
was "muffled" because of
the noise in the office, Bar-
ron said.

Barron couldn't recall
an incident similar to last

Thursday's and is always
looking to improve t>n the
job. "After every incident
I've ever responded to I've
felt I could have done a bet-
ter jt)b," he said.

Barron said he was not
going to make a rush to
judgment after the incident
because he respected the in-
tegrity of the two dispatch-
ers. Barron, who declined to
identify the dispatchers, was
to meet with Mayor Thomas
Koch and Police Chief Paul
Keenan this week to ad-
dress the matter further and
to identify ways to improve
communication.

^Job Well Done

On Saturday, Aug. 8, at approximately 12:20 a.m.. Of-
ficers Steven O'Donoghue and Siobhan O'Connor were
dispatched to the rear park-
ing lot of 530 Willard St. for
a possible robbery that had just
occurred.

Officer O'Donoghue met
with the male victim, who was
seated on a wall in the rear of
the building with his mother
and a neighbor. The victim
stated .that he just finished
work and drove his motor-
cycle to the rear parking lot of
530 Willard St.

As he was getting off
his motorcycle, the victim

caught some movement out of the comer of his eye. A
male (first suspect) came up from behind and asked, "Do
you have a cell phone?" The victim said he didn't but did
recognize the male because he went to school with him
and observed him in the neighborhood. As the victim
attempted to lock his motorcycle, his attention was di-
verted to another male voice (second suspect) from be-
hind him who asked, "Do you have the motorcycle key?"
The victim stated that he immediately recognized the
voice behind him and as he turned to answer, suspect 1
quickly "jumped on my back" and attempted to place him
in a chokehold. The victim said he struggled to get free,
but was thrown to the ground by the first suspect, who
was then joined by the second suspect in kicking the vic-
tim as he lay on the ground.

During the kicking assault, one of the suspects removed
the victim's cell phone from his pocket. The vicfim said
that he recognized the second suspect's voice because he
also went to Quincy High School with him too. He added
that the second suspect was a neighbor and they actually
"hung out together" but he couldn't remember either sus-
pect's name. A description of both suspects was given out
along with the direction of travel to addifional units.

Officer O'Connor began checking the area as the vic-
tim and Officer O'Donoghue

continued the interview. The vicfim said he could defi-
nitely idenfify suspect 1 because of the excellent lighting
in the parking area. As for suspect 2, the victim said that
he did not get a good look at his face but did recognize the
voice from prior conversations and did see his shoes and
pants while on the ground.

Officer O'Connor relayed via radio that she was out
with three males approximately 100 yards from the rob-
bery scene. She stated that spotted the suspects near a
guardrail and as she slowed her cruiser, the suspects
immediately stood up and began walking away. Officer
O'Donoghue arrived and separated the suspects, who
matched the descriptions given, then questioned where
they were coming from. He received three different an-
swers.

The officers then requested another Officer pick up the
victim to identify the suspects. The suspects that met the
description immediately became hostile and denied doing
anything wrong. Suspect 2 displayed aggressive behav-
ior, growing very angry as he clenched his fists. The of-
ficers, outnumbered, for their safety handcuffed suspect
1 . Suspect 2 said, "You better lock me up too - if you
lock him up," so the Officers handcuffed him too. The
third male was told to stand near a telephone pole and he
complied.

Officer Keith Wilbur picked up the victim and he was
brought to the scene, where he was first shown the male
next to the telephone pole. The vicfim said that this male
was not a suspect. Suspect 1 , now un-cuffed, was told to
walk toward the vicfim, who confirmed that he was 100%
sure he was one of the suspects.

The victim also identified suspect 2 as the other sus-
pect. The suspects, both 18-year-old Quincy residents,
were arrested and charged with "Unarmed Robbery
and Assault and Battery with a Dangerous Weapon."

Neither of the suspects had the phone on them. The
third male was sent on his way.

Officer O'Connor conducted a search of the area where
she had first observed the three suspects and located the
victim's cell phone. Nice Work!

LYONS TURNING MILL. The crumbling structure, called the cathedral in the woods and
Quincy's Stonehenge, was almost destroyed for expansion of the landfill. Now, the building
needs some $200,000 in structural repairs.

PROPOSED MUSEUM SITE. The Quincy Quarr> and (>ranite Workers Museum group hopes
to repair the Lyons Turning Mill for a museum.

Lyons T\irning Mill Site May House Quincy Museum

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Just one year since its
incorporation, the 100-plus
members of Quincy Quarry
and Granite Workers Mu-
seum, Inc. celebrated by
staking out the site for their
future museum, the former
Lyons Turning Mill, Quarry
Hills Drive, West Quincy.

The group's sign pro-
claiming the "Future Home"
of the museum, also, depicts,
through a sketch, some of
workers and equipment at
the 35 quarries that once
operated in Quincy, and of-
fers a graph of the group's
meager, but growing, build-
ing fund.

The goal is a museum
honoring the quarries' work-
ers and their achievements
in centuries past when Quin-
cy was known as the Granite
City. Today, only one small
park in West Quincy is dedi-
cated to that industry.

"It's a win, win situation
for everybody," Bina said,
adding that the museum
would draw new tourists
to the city, its restaurants
and businesses and to the
27-hole Granite Links Golf
Course.

Bunker Hill Monument,
as well as Customs' Houses
all over the country. King's
Chapel, Boston, the Titanic
memorial in Washington,
D.C., and hundreds of other
historic buildings locally
and nationally feature Quin-
cy granite.

"It was known as one
of the best equipped turn-
ing mills in the country,"
Al Bina, president of the
museum group, said of the

Lyons Turning Mill which
was almost buried in trash
30 years ago when the city's
landfill was expanding.

Today, Lyons Turning
Mill presents an eerie vis-
age of the past when thou-
sands of workers dug, cut
and blasted granite from the
deep pits of Quincy.

Other workers operated
the equipment that carved
and polished great columns
as long as 22 feet, spheres
with diameters up to six feet
and measured great blocks
for builders.

"Quarrying was danger-
ous work. It was hazard-
ous," Bina said. "There
were many, many people
killed." Those who worked

at stonecutting and polish-
ing, also, risked consump-
tion and other lung diseases,
according to Bina.

Today, the only building
left at the quarries is the Ly-
ons Turning Mill with only
three jagged walls stand-
ing. It has been called "the
cathedral in the woods" and
the Stonehenge of Quincy
because of its fascinating
appearance.

"Our long-range plan is
to build a museum there,"
said Bina of his organiza-
tion which was officially
designated non-profit status
on July 9.

Bina envisions a 3200
sq. ft. museum adjacent to
the mill structure which

must first be stabilized. Both
the museum and the old mill
will hold the tools, records,
memorabilia and machinery
of the industry, currently
held in private homes and
stored by the city.

"The Quarry Museum is
actively searching for arti-
facts related to the granite
industry," Bina wrote in a
recent report to the mem-
bers.

Since the museum
group's founding, local
families have donated rare
photos of the industry with
narratives and identifica-
tions, a stone hammer, a lift-
ing chain, grinding wheel,
and blacksmith tools which
will be displayed in the mu-

QUINCY'S GRANITE INDUSTRY lasted nearly 200 years until the last quarr\ closed in the
1950. The Lyons Tiiming Mill ( 1894- 1907)housed lathes for cutting and jennies for polishing and
was operated by a 150 horsepower boiler and 100- horsepower engine. The company's specialty
was turning and polishing great columns, such as the 32 columns at Boston's Custom House.

"Everybody's on board,"
said Bina, describing sup-
port from the city. Discover
Quincy, and the Quincy
Business Association,

"We've got the endorsement
of Granite Links '

What the group doesn't
have is much money, ac-
cording to Bina. "This is the
world's worst time to start
something like this "

In spite of the economic
times. Bina's been delighted
by the response to the muse-
um plan, the growing mem-
bership, hundreds of web
site hits. and. especially, the
gift of legal and architectur-
al services from experts.

In the spring, the group
received the second of two

$10.(XXJ grants awarded
through the Community
Preservation Act. The grants
must be used for studying
the site, and drawing plans
for repairs and building.

In addition, the Boston
law firm of Ni.xon & Pea-
body worked pro- bono to
help the group obtain its
non-profit status.

Now. Bina said the
Quarry Museum can begin
fund-raising. "We have no
money."

The Nixon & Peabody
attorneys are. also, filing
for the more difficult and
intricate 50 IC designation
\\hich will allow the group
access to more grants.

WHAT YOL R AUTO POLICY WON'T COVER

Aside from stating the types
of damage and mjur\ that your
automobile insurance policy will
cover. It will also list a number
of things that it will not cover.
These so-called "exclusions"
may include intentionaJ injury,
meaning that your policy will not
pay for damages if you were to
intentionally drive into another
vehicleorpieceof property. Neither
will an auto policy cover property
that is owned or transported in a
vehicle. For instance, if your golf
clubs are damaged in an accident,
look to your homeowners policy
to repair or replace them. Nor will
a personal auto policy provide
coverage if you use your vehicle
to transport people/property or
otherwise use your vehicle for

Getting Rid of
that Mildew Smell

Q: Our home has a fin-
ished basement that
has stayed dry until recently,
when we had several weeks of
steady rain. Last week, I no-
ticed a large bubble in the (la-
tex) paint in one comer of the
basement, and the carpet in that
comer was wet. We sopped up
the water as best we could, and
thankfully it has stopped rain-
ing, but now the basement has a
mildewy smell. How can we get
rid of the odor? - Jack and Sha-
ron in Chelmsford, Mass.

A^ In order to get control
• of the mildew smell,
you'll first need to stop the mois-
ture from entering the basement.
It sounds like the basement was
fairly watertight, but over time
a little settling of the house and
foundation may have occurred,
creating tiny gaps or cracks that
the heavy, soaking rain eventually
found its way through.

The leak appears to be local-
ized in one comer of the basement,
which is good - the problem may
not be too big. Check the outside
of the house in that area. Is there a
downspout located at that comer,
or a leaky gutter pouring water
onto that spot? Is water pooling in
that area, or does the ground seem
damper than other areas .'

L(X)k at the foundation itself,
checking for cracks or gaps near
ground level. If you see a prob-
lem, contact a contractor - prefer-
ably one who specializes in foun-
dations andyor basements - to
look for hidden damage and make
a lasting repair.

Meantime, dry out carpeting

and any items that might have got-
ten wet when the leak occurred.
Furniture, boxes and portable
items should be taken upstairs or
put outdoors to dry.

For the carpet, sop up excess
water with old towels, repeating
until no more water can be soaked
up this way. Peel up the dampened
comer of the carpet to expose the
backing and the basement floor. If
mold has set in to the wet comer
of the carpet, cut away the dam-
aged carpet and backing, dry the
area thoroughly, and patch after
the comer leak has been repaired.
If the carpet just smells mildewy,
continue sopping out as much ex-
cess water as possible. Put a fan
nearby so that air will circulate
through the area, helping the dry-
ing process.

A home remedy that can ease
the mildew smell at this point is
plain old window cleaner: that's
right, ammonia and vinegar.
Spritz the carpet and padding with
it throughout the drying process.
The mixture will kill off surface
mildew and reduce the odor. An
important note: Don't use ammo-
nia if you have previously used
or are using bleach in the area
- blending these two chemicals
creates deadly fumes.

HOME TIP: Good air circu-
lation is paramount to reducing
mildew smells in the home. If hu-
midity is a problem, keep ceiling
fans running and change the air
conditioner filter monthly.

Moving Ideas: The Three 'E's' Of Easy Moving

(NAPSI)-According to
the U.S. Census Bureau,
some 40 million Americans
move to a new home every
year. The next time you're
among them, it may pay to
heed Clive Pearse, host of
HGTV's "Designed to Sell"
and "Design Star." His ad-
vice: Focus on three "E's"
to make your move eco-
nomical, environmentally
responsible and efficient.

The good news is you can
be green while saving some
green-his tips are designed
to save money and be goou
for the planet.

"First," Pearse said,
"movers can be economi-
cal by simply moving less
stuff." He recommends get-
ting started by re-evaluating
your belongings and selling
anything no longer needed

or wanted online or at a yard
sale. You can also donate
many items to charity and
so save the cost of moving
them.

"Next, think free packing
materials- why pay for them
when there are items all
around you that will do the
job and are free," continued
Pearse. Items such as plas-
tic grocery store bags and
dishtowels make great filler
when you're packing boxes.
Ask friends to save pack-
ing materials from pack-
ages they've received, such
as Bubble Wrap and Sty-
rofoam peanuts, and reuse
them. Ask stores you shop at
for any empty boxes that are
usually thrown away. This
not only saves money but
helps the environment, since
items are being reused.

Finally, efficiency pays
off. Save time and avoid
frustrations once you've
moved by arranging to have
your utilities and services
hooked up when you arrive
at your new home. "Here's
a tip that will save several
phone calls. Connect your
TV, phone and Internet with
one quick call or online visit
by using the Cable Mover
Hotline," said Pearse. Go
to www.cablemover.com
or call (877) 9TV-M0VE

and you can transfer your
services from your current
cable company to the com-
pany at your new home. It
doesn't matter if your move
is across town or across the
country.

Keep these tips in mind
and you may find you can
keep more of your money for
fixing up your new home.

Changing homes can be
a chance to help save the
Earth's ecology and your
own money.

Fun Outdoor Activities That Will Motivate Kids

(ARA) - These days it's
not uncommon for children
to spend more time in front
of the TV and computer than
they do playing outside.
When the weather is nice,
this leaves many parents a
bit perplexed.

Keeping kids physically
active is an important part of
a well-rounded and healthy
lifestyle. So how do you get
your kids excited about go-
ing outside? Here are some
ideas sure to get you and
your kids fired up about out-
door fun.

garden

Involving kids in plant-
ing and nurturing a garden

Female Facial

Hair Can Be

Hormone-Related

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
Fm a 26-year-old woman with
an embarrassing problem. I'm
growing a mustache. What
^ causes this? I have started to
shave, but I worry that shaving
is going to make the hair grow
faster and coarser. I see some
hair on my breasts, too. What
can I do about this? - VJT.

ANSWER: Hair growth in
females in places where it should
be found only in males is hirsut-
ism (HERE-suit-izm). Such ar-
eas include the skin above the
upper lip, the chin, the chest, the
thighs, the upper back and the
abdomen. Hair in those places
is sensitive to the action of male
hormones. Common causes for
such hair growth are idiopathic
(a definite cause not found),
menopause (when female hor-
mone production dips) and poly-
cystic ovary syndrome.

Polycystic ovary syndrome is
fairly common. Signs of it are a
diminution or complete stoppage
of menstrual periods, hirsutism,
obesity and large ovaries with
many cysts. One of the mecha-
nisms responsible for some
polycystic ovary symptoms is
an overproduction of androgen

— male hormones. The unwant-
ed pattern of hair growth stems
from androgen excess.

Idiopathic hirsutism ~ hair
growth without a cause found

- might be a mild form of poly-
cystic ovary syndrome. That's

*^ a popular theory expounded by
many experts.

Rarer causes of hirsutism in-
clude adrenal gland overactivity,
tumors of the adrenal gland or

^ ovary, pituitary gland tumors and
some prescription medicines.

You're not going to solve this
on your own. You need a doctor
to evaluate your hormone status.

sponsibility at the same
time. Start by researching
appropriate planting times
and plants that will grow in
the hardiness zone where
you live. If it's too late in
the season for planting in
your area, consider taking
the kids to a local farm that
allows you to pick your own
fruits, berries or vegetables.

After you're done, take
the fun one step further by
picking a healthy recipe you
can all make together. Fruits
are great for all-natural fro-
zen popsicles, salads and
bakery items like muffins.
Veggies can be easily used
in pasta recipes or as side
items.

2. A simple walk has nev-
er been more fun

The appropriate treatment hinges
on finding a specific cause.

When a cause cannot be
found, shaving, electrolysis, de-
pilatories (chemical hair remov-
ers) and laser treatments are op-
tions. Shaving doesn't make hair
grow faster or coarser.

Vaniqa cream, a prescription
item, gets rid of unwanted hair
quite well. Birth-control pills
work when a woman needs es-
trogen. Spironolactone, a water
pill, can counter the influence
of male hormones and is often

useful.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I have a fungus infection on
my left foot and toes. What
causes it? How do I get rid of
UT-LJ).

ANSWER: A fungus causes
it. Fungi are germs that are a bit
larger than bacteria. Fungi thrive
in warm, moist places. Keep your
feet dry. Wear sandals when you .
can. Change socks twice a day.
Have two pairs of shoes, and
alternate their use. You can find
numerous medicines for athlete's
foot (which is what you have) at
the counters of all drugstores.
Lotrimin AF, Micatin , Absorbine
and Tmactin are a few names. If
those medicines fail, the oral
medicine griseofulvin usually

can do in the fungus.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
How much are the vitamins in
vegetables destroyed by cook-
ing? Is microwaving more
destructive than boiling on a
stove? -S.r.

ANSWER: Some vitamins
do trickle into the boiling water
from cooking vegetables. Keep
the amount of water to a mini-
mum, and bring it to a boil be-
fore you put in the vegetables.
Don't cook them to death. Let
them keep some crunchiness.

Microwaving preserves more
of the vegetables' nutrition than
does boiling. Steaming is an-
other way of keeping vitamins
intact.

Dr. Donohue regrets that he is
unable to answer individual let-
ters, hut he wil! incorporate them
in his column whenever possible.

A family walk is not only
quality time spent together,
but it gets muscles moving.
Enjoy your community and
take a walk to your favorite
park, playground or beach.
If you have little ones, use
a wagon like the Radio
Flyer Pack 'N Go Canopy
Wagon. It's a great alterna-
tive to strollers with a 360
degree view and tots enjoy
the fun ride. Plus this wagon
features a canopy to protect
riders from the sim's harm-
ful rays and a storage bag
that can keep water and oth-
er supplies cool.

Make an afternoon of
it and pack a picnic lunch.
Don't forget to keep it
healthy ~ make sandwiches
ahead of time, pack fruits,
snacks and other favorites
along with water and juice
boxes so everyone stays hy-
drated as they play.

3. Plan a nature treasure
hunt

It's no secret that kids
love games. A game of tag
or soccer is always fun, but
how about planning a unique
activity to get them excited
about being outdoors? Con-
sider plaiming a scavenger
hunt that incorporates items
from nature.

Plan ahead and create a
list of things that you could
find in your area. Include
some easy-to-find items and
others that are more difficult
to locate. To make it more
educational, add photos to
items on the list they might
not recognize so they can

learn as they hunt. For ex-
ample, add a photo of differ-
ent kinds of leaves, flowers,
rocks or feathers and have
the kids seek them out.

4. Organize a group
scoot

A great alternative to
bikes is the scooter, and
kids are taking notice. First,
make sure your child has a
safe scooter to ride on. The
Radio Flyer EZ-Rider is the
first and only scooter made
specifically for intermedi-
ate-level riders, designed
to help children master bal-
ance while allowing them
to keep a steady pace. The
extra- wide wheels, low deck
and rear foot brake ensure
safety. Always remember
a helmet is a smart idea no
matter what type of scooter
your child rides.

Once your young rider is
ready, get a group of their
friends together and go on
a group scooter adventure.
Choose a specific name for
your group and ride through
the neighborhood or park.
Don't be surprised if it be-
comes a weekly activity.

Today's kids might need
a little encouragement, but
once you get them involved
in some exciting and new
outdoor activities, they'll
be asking to play outside
more often rather than sit-
ting in front of the computer
or television. To learn more
about fun outdoor activities,
visit www.radioflyer.com.

In recent years, increased head restraints in your vehicle.

attention has been paid to the
placement and effectiveness of
head restraints in automobiles.
In order to work properly, head
restraints should be positioned at
a height that is commensurate with
the height of seated passengers'
heads, and no more than two inches
back. That way, head restraints can
prevent heads from experiencing
so-called "whiplash injuries"
during rear-end collisions. These
violent, whip-like, back-and-forth
movements of the head have the
potential to inflict serious injury
to the neck and shoulders of
automobile occupants. To prevent
these injuries from occurring,
it pays for both drivers and
passengers to make sure that the
head restraints on their seats are
properly positioned immediately
after they are seated in a vehicle.

QBRL to Host Q & A Session Aug. 26

Quincy Babe Ruth To Hold
Informational Meeting

Babe Ruth Baseball, one
of the premier amateur base-
ball programs in the world, is
alive and kicking in Quincy.

Quincy Babe Ruth League,
Inc (QBRL) will be holding
an informational meeting for
parents on Wednesday, Aug.
26, at 7 p.m. at the Richard
J. Koch Park and Recreation
Complex. Come and join
b<iard members for an in-
formal discussion regarding
1 3-to- 1 S-year old Babe Ruth
Baseball here in Quincy. Ask
questions, get answers and
make informed decisions.

Quincy Babe Ruth
League fields a team in the
Babe Ruth League-endorsed
13-year old Prep League.
This program is designed to
prepare 12-year old players
for competition on the stan-
dard 90-foot diamond and to
alleviate their fears of play-

ing with more experienced
and older teammates. Every
child matters; every child
plays in every game. League
teams are well balanced
and competitive and players
participating in other base-
ball programs (high school,
AAU, travel, etc.) are wel-
comed.

The Quincy Babe Ruth
program adheres to Babe
Ruth and QBRL playing
and tournament rules and
strongly emphasizes respect
for these rules by all par-
ticipants. All QBRL coaches
have completed the Babe
Ruth League Coaching Certi-
fication Program and a CORl
background review. Coaches
manage their own teams
within Babe Ruth League
and QBRL guidelines.

QBRL has a solid rela-
tionship with Babe Ruth

League, Inc Commission-
ers. Our teams participate in
Babe Ruth Tournaments and
for years Quincy and QBRL,
Inc have been host to many
Babe Ruth Tournaments with
more to come. QBRL has
financial stability. All um-
pires are certified members
of the South Shore Umpires
Association, Inc, promoting
professionalism, sportsman-
ship, respect, integrity and
the love of the game.

Considering a 1 3-to- 15
year old baseball program
for your child? Come to the
Quincy Babe Ruth informa-
tional meeting on Aug. 26
at 7 p.m. at the Quincy Park
and Recreation Center. Talk
with Board Members and
other interested parents and
bring your questions.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
A chaotic atmosphere taxes the
patience of the Aries Lamb,
who prefers to deal with a more
orderly environment. Best ad-
vice: Stay out of the situation
until things settle.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Tension runs high in both per-
sonal and workplace relation-
ships. This can make it difficult
to get your message across.
Best to wait until you have a
more receptive audience.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
This is a good time to take .a
break from your busy schedule
to plan for some well-deserved
socializing. You could get news
about an important personal
matter by the week's end.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
An offer of help could come
just when you seem to need
it. But be careful about saying
yes to anything that might have
conditions attached that could
cause problems down the line.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Sometimes a workplace col-
league can't be charmed into
supporting the Lion's posi-
tion. That's when it's time to
shift tactics and overwhelm the
doubter with the facts.

• VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) You continue to earn respect
for your efforts to help someone
close to you stand up to a bully.
But be careful that in pushing
this matter you don't start to do
some bullying yourself.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Don't ask others if
they think you're up to a new
responsibility. Having faith in
your own abilities is the key to

dealing with a challenge. PS.:
That "private" matter needs
your attention.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 2 1 ) This is a good time
to use that Scorpian creativ-
ity to come up with something
special that will help get your
derailed career plans back on
track and headed in the right
direction.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) While
change is favored, it could be
a good idea to carefully weigh
the possible fallout as well as
the benefits of any moves be-
fore you make them.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) The Goat contin-
ues to create a stir by following
his or her own path. Just be sure
you keep your focus straight
and avoid any distractions that
could cause you to make a mis-
step.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A colleague's
demands seem out of line.
But before reacting one way
or another, talk things out and
see how you might resolve the
problem and avoid future mis-
understandings.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) A personal matter appears
to be making more demands on
your time than you feel you're
ready to give. See if some com-
promise can be reached before
things get too dicey.

BORN THIS WEEK: You re

able to communicate feelings
better than most people. Have
you considered a career in the
pulpit or in politics?

SCOTT DE WARE "Yq each of us, it serans that we never

have enou^ time in our days,and yet we are aO allotted the same number
of ours. How we use up our hours is our own choice. We came across
some thoughts on time that we think are good and we want to share them
with you:

Time is money ... we have no time to waste it

Time is power ... we have no right to dissipate it.

Time is influence ... we have no right to throw it away.

Time is life ... we must vahie it greatly.

Time is God's. . He gi\es it to us for a purpose.

Time is a sacred tiust. . . we must answer for every moment.

Time is wisdom. . . We have no r^t to be ignorant.

Time is preparation for etnuity ... we must redeem it.*

discourage new investment

said.

"When Bill Phelan was
mayor, he had a comprehen-

plan to make sure Quincy's
roads were repaired quickly
and efficiently. You can see
what happened after Mayor
Koch got rid of that."

"Tom Koch's misplaced
spending priorities are hurt-

of putting it together," said
Binaof the 501 C application
which can take considerable
time and expertise.

In addition, Bina said
Richard Bertman of CBT
Architects of Boston pro-
vided advice and direction
for plans for the museum
building.

CBT is an internation-
ally known architectural
firm which, also, designed
the addition to the Thomas
Crane Public Library and
to the Museum of Fine Arts,
Boston.

Thanks to CBT's help,
Bina contracted with John
Wathne, PE, of Structures
North, who recently com-
pleted a structural study "to
see what we have to do to
stabilize the structure."

Bina said the repairs
are estimated between
$185,000 to $219,000. He
expects Wathne will provide
a detailed study and plans,
including specifications, on
the repair work.

In the future, there are
other legal issue which must
be addressed, according to
Bina who pointed out that
the entire quarry area is
leased to Granite Links.

In order to proceed, law-
yers must decide whether
Quarry Hills can "sublease
it to a private entity" or
whether the city would pull
the museum portion "back
into the city."

Whatever the decision,
Lyons Turning Mill has a
better future than it did in
1979 when Mayor Arthur
Tobin said it was "right
smack in the middle of
Phase 4," the final step of
the landfill expansion.

"It almost became Phase
4 of the landfill," said Bina
who recalls the efforts of
Harold Crowley, President
of the Friends of Thomas
Crane Library, in saving the
site. Crowley, a member of
the group, donated all the
official documents from that
episode to the museum

Also, anxious to save
Lyons Turner Mill from the
dump were George Homer,
then chairman of The Lyons
Turning Mill and Quarry

Committee, and the Quincy
Historical Society.

Bina said the museum
was supposed to be built
back in the 2004 "when
they started to build Granite
Links." The project would
have been built with funds
from the State's tipping fees
from the Big Dig dirt.

"All that money evapo-
rated," said Bina. "There
wasn't any money left for a
quarry museum."

Bina said his group
meets monthly and many^of
the members, like him, are
descended from the original
quarry workers. Most mem-
bers are from Quincy, but,
there are members from out
of state like Connecticut,
and, locally, from Lexington
and Kingston.

Bina's been working for
the museum since his re-
tirement from the chemical
engineering department of
Northeastem University.

"Both of my grandfathers
worked in the quarries,"
said Bina of his maternal
grandfather, Angelo Zanolli,
who worked as a blacksmith
and his paternal grandfather
John Bina who worked in
the Granite Rail Quarry.

Bina believes the diver-
sity of the immigrant labor
force was one of the marvels
of the era which, basically.

ended in the 1950's. There
were Italians, Scots, Finns,
Irish and Swedes.

"When my grandpar-
ents came over," Bina said
that they heard what is said
today of immigrants with
different customs, "Those
foreigners don't speak Eng-
lish." "We're hearing the
exact same thing today,"
said Bina. "Historically, it
was the same then."

In a recent report, Bina
thanked the many people
who have helped at pre-
sentations, such as Louise
Pagliccia, and who have re-
cently donated photos and
artifacts, including Harold
Crowley, Joe Contelli, Anna
Tanner, Joan Pritchard and
the Collins family, Marion
Coclough, Gloria Marini,
Rena Testa Harrison, and
Dave Bristol .

Officers of the museum
group are Bina, president;
Lauren B. Chotalai, Trea-

han, James Davis, 3"^, (Ward

"Deal or No Deal" tele-
vision game show models
Lindsay Clubine and Katie
Cleary recently made a stop
in historic Quincy as part
of the "2009 Follow Me to
Bliss" promotion that was
sponsored by the New Eng-
land Mercury Dealers.

The women spent two
days traveling 500 miles
throughout New England,
making stops in cities and
towns where they partici-
pated in fun challenges at
different wedding-related
businesses (Clubine is en-
gaged to Red Sox pitcher
Clay Buchholz).

The trip was filmed for
short videos titled "Follow
Mg To Biigs" that will be
available on www.follow-
metobIiss.com.

Clubine and Cleary spent
over 90 minutes at the Hal-
lowed Herbs Tea House
on High School Avenue in
Quincy, where they expe-
rienced an authentic "High
Tea" with proprietor Lisa
Tavakoli and participated in
a challenge that had Cubine
blindfolded while Cleary
guided her as she raced to
pour water from one teacup
into teapots.

PURE Chocolate on
Franklin Avenue in Quincy
delivered a gift box of choc-
olates to the models at the
Boston Harbor Hotel , where
they spent the night prior to
their arrival in Quincy.

The stop in Quincy came
about because of local busi-
nessman, Wil Porter from
Ansaphone Service, Inc. An

avid Twitter user. Porter read
a "tweet" about the project
that requested information
about potential wedding-re-
lated stops in New England.

"I immediately thought
that Quincy would be a great
place for them to stop and
thought about which local
businesses would want to
get mvolved," said Porter.

"Hallowed Herbs Tea
House and PURE Chocolate
were both natural fits be-
cause I knew that they were
unique and different and
the organizers immediately
picked up on the request."

Porter spent the next
month coordinating the
event with the promoters.
"It was great to be able to
involve the local businesses
and see how it finally all
came together," said Porter.

The newly opened Ken-
nedy Center is available to
seniors as a cooling center.
Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Tuesday.

The new senior center,
opened last month, is fully
air-conditioned. Koch and
Elder Services Director
Thomas Clasby said seniors
without available air-con-
ditioning should consider
visiting the center-at the for-
mer Myles Standish School
on East Squantum Street-to
beat the heat.

"This can be a difficult
time of year for our seniors,
and we want to make sure

they know that they have an
open invitation to- this facil-
ity," Koch said. "This is a
first-of-its-kind facility for
our city and we are going to
continue to maximize its po-
tential going forward."

The center is open Mon-
day to Friday from 8:30
a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and there
is also water and cold drinks
available in the building, of-
ficials said.

Clasby said that since
the Kennedy Center opened
last month, more than 3,000
seniors have signed up for
programs held at the new
facility.

Previously, the dozens of
programs offered by Elder
Services were held in vari-
ous community centers and
other locations across the
city, which led to schedul-
ing, accessibility and logis-
tical problems.

Among the programs of-
fered at the Kennedy Center
are: a computer lab. fitness
programs, game rooms, arts
and crafts, library programs,
movies, a music room and
expanded meal programs,
Clasby said.

The location of the new
senior center is directly next

door to a large senior hous-
ing center and near a reno-
vated WoUaston Beach and
a state-walking path, and
officials believe it will make
a great spot for a walking
club.

The project cost no ad-
ditional money to taxpay-
ers as roughly $1 million in
renovations to the building
were funded through an ex-
isting capital improvement
bond that was budgeted and
borrowed to pay for a new
garage at the Department of
Public Works more than two
years ago.

Koch Plans Private
Interviews For Fire Chief

REVIEWING PLANS for a new park on Cleverly Court are (from left) MWRA Executive Di-
rector Frederick Laskey, Mayor Thomas Koch and Ward 2 Councilor Daniel Raymondi. The
park is being funded by the MWRA.

Quincy Point Park
Construction Underway

Construction is begin-
ning this week on a new
park and playing fields on
Cleverly Court in Quincy
Point that will be paid for
by a settlement deal with
the Massachusetts Water
Resources Authority, Mayor
Thomas Koch and Ward 2
City Councillor Daniel Ray-
mondi announced Tuesday.

The project, which will
transform a former MWRA
parking lot and construc-
tion staging area into a
park, is being paid for by
the MWRA. The new park,
directly across the street
from the former Fore River
Shipyard, will include two
40-yard-by-60-yard youth
soccer fields as well as new
trees, other plantings, and
green space, officials said.

"This is an area of the
city that can very much use

the additional green space,
and we are looking forward
to getting this project done
so the entire community can
enjoy a beautiful new park,"
said Koch. "I am grateful
to the MWRA for working
together with us and for the
work Councillor Raymondi
does everyday advocating
on behalf of Quincy Point
residents."

Added Councillor Ray-
mondi:

"Creating new green
space is absolutely vital
when possible, and this park
will be a great passive addi-
tion to the community and
provide great utility for the
many youth groups that will
use it as well," said Ray-
mondi. "We will continue to
work together with Mayor
Koch, the MWRA and other
agencies to make projects

like this possible."

The 2.8-acre parcel and
$250,000 for the project
comes from a settlement
agreement with the MWRA
regarding an old dispute
related to the agency's
Weymouth-Braintree tunnel
project. Before the parcel
was designated as open-
space by the city, it had an
appraised value of approxi-
mately $2 million.

"We are quite proud of
the partnerships we have
forged with the City of
Quincy, and this park will
be another example of that
relationship," said MWRA
Executive Director Freder-
ick Laskey. "Mayor Koch
and Councillor Raymondi
are true advocates for this
community and we will con-
tinue working closely with
both of them."

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Mayor Thomas Koch
said Monday he will begin
interviewing the three eli-
gible candidates for the po-
sition of fire chief within the
next week to 10 days.

While both Civil Service
Commissioners and the City
Council recommended an
outside review panel and
open public hearings for
candidate interviews, Koch
said that he will follow tra-
dition and interview the can-
didates privately.

The new fire chief will
fill the position vacated by
Chief Timothy Pettinelli
on July 15, 2008 and filled
since then by Acting Chief
Joseph Barron.

The eligible candidates
are Captain Edward Fenby,
Deputy Chief Gary Smyth
and Barron who met re-
quired scores on a March
Civil Service examination.
The scores are not public at
this time.

According to Chris Walk-
er, Koch's Policy Director,
the mayor requested an in-
house Civil Service exami-
nation which limits the can-
didate field to officers in the
Quincy Fire Department.

This will be the second
review of candidates under-
taken by Koch.

Following Pettinelli 's re-
tirement, Koch offered the
position to two eligible can-
didates on the exisfing Civil

Service list. Both candidates
declined the position, leav-
ing Smyth as the only eli-
gible candidate.

However, Koch called
for a new Civil Service list,
asserting there were not a
sufficient number of candi-
dates. Koch did not offer the
position to Smyth.

Subsequently, Smyth
challenged the mayor's han-
dling of the search and filed
complaints with the Civil
Service Commission and
the state Supreme Judicial
Court.

While the Civil Service
Commissioners upheld

Koch's decision, they, also,
recommended a "more
transparent" process for the
city, including public inter-
views by an outside panel
and faulted him for appoint-
ing Barron as Acting Chief.

This week, the state Su-
preme Judicial Court (SJC)
dismissed Smyth's appeal
on technical grounds and is-
sued no finding.

According to City Solici-
tor Jim Timmins, the SJC
agreed with the city's re-
sponse to Smyth's suit and
found the appeal was not
filed within the proper time
frame and should have been
filed in superior court, rather
than the SJC.

Timmins said the SJC
agreed with the merits of the
city's response.

A brief summary of the

candidates' background as
provided by the Human
Resources Department fol-
lows.

• Bom in 1960, Captain
Edward Fenby served in the
Air Force and the Air Na-
tional Guard. He was hired
by the Quincy Fire Depart-
ment in July, 1987, studied
Fire Science with the Air
Force and obtained an asso-
ciate's degree.

Fenby was promoted to
lieutenant in October, 1996,
and captain in 2002.

• Bom in 1966, Deputy
Chief Gary Smyth was hired
in 1987, promoted to lieu-
tenant in 1998, captain in
2002 and deputy chief in
2006.

Northeastern and University
of Massachusetts and Fire
Science at Quincy College.

Smyth was commended
twice, once in 1988 and
again in 1998 for off-duty
actions in Quincy. In one in-
cident he entered a burning
home and in the second ad-
ministered CPR to a victim.

• Bom in 1954, Barron
was hired by the Quincy
Fire Department in 1978,
and studied at Bunker Hill
Community College.

THE BIG NEWS IN WATCHES

It may not be stretching the
truth to say that men feel about
wristwatches nearly the same way
that women feel about shoes and
handbags. The fact is that some men
cannot get enough of them while
others have two or more specialized
watches to match their mood or
occasion. In any case, today's
big trend in watches is oversized
watches. The most desirable of
these have decidedly retro looks
and mechanical movements.
Moreover, the preference for big
watches is not limited to men.
Women are also wearing oversized
men's wristwatches that have big
faces, but they are not fitted to the
wrist. Instead, they feature loose
bands, which allow them to be

worn like bangle bracelets.

Watches come in a wide
variety sizes, shapes, and prices,
and selecting one should be based
on the same criteria as purchasing
fine jewelry— personal taste.
Whether you're choosing one
very special watch or a wardrobe
of watches as fashion accessories ,
you'll want to shop where you
can trust the knowledge and
count on the integrity. For ail
your fine jewelry needs, you
can always rely on us. And for
the expert repairs you deserve
for your time pieces or jewelry
pieces, stop by and see us at 1402

West Nile Virus Confirmed
In Mosquitoes From Quincy

The Massachusetts De-
partment of Public Heahh
(MDPH) announced Tues-
day that West Nile virus
(WNV) has been detected in
mosquitoes collected from
Quincy.

There was one WNV-
positive Cule.x pipiens/
restuans mosquito sample
identified.

Last year, for 2008, 136
WNV positive mosquito
samples were identified in
59 Massachusetts town and
1 1 counties. Quincy had one
WNV positive mosquito
sample identified in 2008.

To date, the state has
reported six positive mos-
quito pools from at least
six communities. While
WVN can infect people of
all ages, people over the age
of 50 are at higher risk for
severe infection. WNV is
most commonly transmitted
to humans by the bite of a
mosquito infected with the
virus. The City of Quincy
Health Department and the
MDPH recommend that the
public continue to take ac-
tion to avoid mosquito bites
and reduce mosquito popu-
lations around their home
and neighborhoods by:

Limiting your time out-
doors during peak periods
of mosquito activity (dusk
and dawn) or, if you must
remain outdoors, wear a

long-sleeved shirt and long
pants.

Use a mosquito repel-
lent that contains DEET
or Picaridin. Oil of lemon
eucalyptus may also be
considered. Products with
permethrin should only be
used on clothing. Always
follow the directions on the
label. Repellents should not
be used on children younger
than two months of age. Oil
of lemon eucalyptus should
not be used on children un-
der three years of age.

Take special care to cov-
er up the arms and legs of
children playing outdoors.
When you bring a baby out-
doors, cover the baby's car-
riage or playpen with mos-
quito netting.

Fix any holes in your
screens and make sure they
are tightly attached to all
your doors and windows.

Remove any standing
water around your home
that is available for mos-
quito breeding. Mosquitoes
will begin to breed in any
puddle or standing water
that lasts for more than four
days. Make sure water does
not collect and stagnate in
ceramic pots, trash cans, re-
cycling containers, old tires,
wading pools, bird baths,
etc. Remove leaves and de-
bris that may prevent drain-
age of roof gutters.

attend North Quincy High

The ballot positions have been drawn and Labor Day
weekend is approaching which means city politics will
soon be heating up as much as the recent spell of hazy, hot
and humid weather.

Speaking of heat, 1 took a little myself a few weeks back
for the column I wrote on Quincy Police Sgt. Paul Turows-
ki, one of four candidates running for mayor this fall. One
reader wondered why I hadn't included the other political
newcomer and mayoral contender; Jo-
seph O'Malley of Houghs Neck.

I assured the reader I would be talking
to Joe very soon.

And so 1 did last week.

So, in the interest of fairness of course,
I would like to shed a little light on
O'Malley 's candidacy and the reasons
he's seeking the mayor's office.

O'Malley, age 43, has lived in Quincy
for six years after moving from South Boston. He graduated
from Weymouth North High School in 1985. He's worked
many jobs since 1981 including being a disc jockey. He was
hired as a full-time letter carrier in 1988.

He calls himself a frustrated taxpayer but a reasonable,
common-sense guy.

And he has strong opinions about the way city govern-
ment is being run.

He says he has two main reasons for wanting to serve
Quincy as its mayor.

"I see a city divided into two political camps which I
believe has had a negative impact on the quality of work and
work environment. Second, 1 see taxes going higher along
with dwindling city services."

O'Malley calls himself a true outsider in this campaign
since he doesn't work for the city and is not originally from
Quincy. "I have no political connections in the City of Quin-
cy. I am running for mayor without a campaign finance ac-
count. No fundraisers. No signs. Just word of mouth and a
belief in the voters of Quincy."

He knows he's a long-shot to win in November but thinks
this election is more about sending a message that politics as
usual is over in Quincy.

"I am doing this as a wake up call. I'm asking the citizens
of Quincy to send a message to the politicians of Quincy
who I feel are 50-50 split in this city that they are tired of
politics as usual. Quincy, the state, the federal government
cannot afford to continue down this path we're on. Every-
body talks about cutting and stream-lining but no one really
wants to face some of the real issues however unpopular
they may be. We have to start changing our ways.

"I'll guarantee you if the voters elect me or put me on
the ballot in November it's going to send a chill at the State
House that someone with no campaign, no financial coimec-
tions, no paid advisors, no campaign war chests ... I have
just my belief . . . that the citizens and taxpayers of the City
of Quincy are at a point that we need a change or you need
to change even if you do get in."

O'Malley sees the mayoral race of 2009 as a potential
watershed moment in Quincy.

"I am hoping that I have my finger on the pulse of the
voter and the time is now. If not now, you're going to put up
two more years of declining city services and ever-raising
taxes and I'm not saying that I won't raise taxes but rest
assured I'd go after the fat and do away with take-home ve-
hicles and other luxuries. There might have been a day when
we could afford to do that. We can't afford to do that now."

O'Malley also believes the Phelan and Koch adminis-
trations have failed to maintain all the city's parks, play-
grounds and fields.

"In Houghs Neck, I see ever-rising taxes and an inabil-
ity by both the (Koch and Phelan) administrations to su-
pervise their employees to get on some kind of itinerary
on maintaining properties in the Houghs Neck area and the
city of Quincy. It baffles me that they have the inability or
the unwillingness to do it. It's frustrating as a taxpayer that
your taxes go up and you expect the whole city to be treated
equally on the city services and that's just not happening."

Asked to cite an example, O'Malley said: "Brill Field.
Kids are playing on the baseball field and the grass is over-
grown on the baselines and on the field. There are trees
growing in the grandstands which is curious enough that the
city actually came out and cut down. I find it strange that
now that I'm all of sudden nmning (for mayor) that they cut
the trees that were growing underneath the stands."

O'Malley says if the city is going to raise taxes, then he
wants better services for his money.

"I just think there's been a lack of general maintenance.
All the parks and playgrounds deserve attention. I am not
asking that these things get done all the time - but when you
drive down there and you can see it and it doesn't look good,
that's when you should get out there and do it."

And if the city can't afford to maintain all city-owned
property, O'Malley says "they should sell it - plain and sim-
ple. They shouldn't be buying property they can't afford to
take care of when they can't take care of the property they
have already."

To get his message to voters, O'Malley said he plans to
utilize public access on Quincy Community Television. If
he wins one of the two nominations on Sept. 22, he says he
plans to use other local media to get his word out.

If elected mayor, O'Malley says he would work with the
city council and all the department heads and school com-
mittee. "We have some pretty good professionals and we
should listen to them all. I would take in what they have to
offer to help educate me and then develop a game plan."

Another subject he feels strongly about is redeveloping
Germantown to extract as much view tax as possible.

"I am in favor of trying to work with the federal and state
governments to try to do something about Germantown as
we know it. To try to do what they did with Columbia Point
projects in South Boston. Intergrate the high-level living
with the subsidized housing.

"1 feel it's unfair for the City of Quincy to charge me
more than the average taxpayer because I have a (water
view) and allow Germantown to exist as it is and lose mil-
lions of dollars in potential revenue. I feel they're derelict
and they're supposed to be caretakers of our tax dollar and
they're unjustly taxing people probably at a higher rate to
compensate for the loss revenue in Germantown.

"A city that's looking to raise revenue 1 think they'd be
more than eager to want to do something with Germantown
as it is. We have to try to maximize our dollars in this city
and 1 feel we're losing millions of dollars."

He also believes people who receive any form of govern-
ment assistance who get convicted of a crime should be re-
moved from public housing. "If someone needs taxpayers 's
money to live then you will be held to a standard of being a
good citizen," O'Malley says.

If elected, he would also take steps to move the metha-
done van out of the city and require the homeless to pay
a small fee or work a few hours in order to stay in local
shelters.

"I am not heartless but taxpayers have been taken for
granted. We do not have an endless well of money. I'm not
cold-hearted but we can't be everybody's life boat. What's
wrong with getting something in retum? Let's take our city
back to working families and reward them for good behav-
ior."

His bottom line message: "I'm a taxpayer that's sinking.
I'm trying to stay above water. I've never asked anybody for
any help and I'm sure there are plenty others out there.

"If we can help spur more activity in government from
regular outsiders it would absolutely be a win for me. It's
already a win - that I have achieved what I have right now
and I'm not going away. If I fail this time, I will be back
again if warranted.

"If the next mayor can actually go after bad behavior and
stream-line waste, I think we'd be a better govenunent, re-
gardless of who's in there."

Scenes From Yesterday

Sea Street looking West,
Houghs Neck, Quincy, Mass

THIS IS A 1914 postcard view of Sea Street in Houghs
Neck looking southwest from Bayview Avenue. The
building on the left has been replaced w ith Louis Cross-
ing restaurant. The two peaked roofed buildings further
down on the left still exist but everything else in this
scene is pretty much gone including the trolley tracks.

V.

The tall building on the right was the Palm Theater, one
of many amusement and commercial attractions that
made this end of Houghs Neck a popular summer resort
in the beginning of the last century. Today, almost 100
years later, this is mostly a residential neighborhood. To

Separate, But Equal, Is Not The Way For Quincy

In 1954 the United Sta-
te Supreme Court ruled in
Brown v. Board of Educati-
on that the doctrine of "se-
parate, but equal" had no
place in public education.

The ruling stated that
American school systems
could not segregate students
based on race, and further
that such practices depri-
ved children of the minority
groups educational opportu-
nities.

Despite the ruling, segre-
gation continued in many
forms, and attempts to era-
dicate it often led to great
turmoil. In October 1957
the United States Army was
called to safely escort black
students to Central High
School in Little Rock, Ar-
kansas.

beginning in 1973,
busing rankled Boston. Bu-
ses carrying black students
were stoned. In view of the
Old State House, a white
protestor was photographed
spearing a black business-
man with the American flag.
The title of the image: The
Soiling of Old Glory.

Much work has been
done to heal these wounds
and cleanse the soilings of
the turbulent past. Despite
these gains, much work re-
mains to be done to eradi-
cate the barriers created by
segregationist policies of
long ago and those de facto
circumstances that exist to-
day.

Yet .there are those among
us who choose to ignore the
Ics^oii'^ orhistoiA.

h^ m\ very i:ieat tlis-
nia\. I icctiiliv learned that

i •■ -d
t, siithusctts I de-

partment of Elementary
and Secondary Education
that would spawn renewed
segregation right here in
Quincy.

A proposal by nine rela-
tively unknown individu-
als, eight of whom are not
residents of Quincy, would
create a new Asian charter
school dubbed the "Hanlin
International Academy" that
would open in September
2010.

Under current law, this
school would be funded
with the tax dollars of local
residents, but would be out-
side the oversight of elected
officials.

An application was sent
to the Department in late
July without the input or
review of the school super-
intendent or school commit-
tee. Its executive summa-
ry states: "new American
parents will finally get a
viable education option for
their children."

Such a statement reflects
a complete lack of know-

ledge for the programs and
policies of the Quincy Pu-
blic School system.

Nor does it show even
the slightest glimmer of re-
spect for those teachers and
administrators who have de-
dicated their lives to educa-
ting new Americans.

Moreover, the applicati-
on goes on to outline frigh-
teningly segregationist poli-
cies.

Essentially, the group,
which posses little under-
standing of our citizenry or
school system, seeks to re-
move Asian children from
the classroom and place
them in a Chinese-themed
learning environment. They
claim that Quincy's schools
offer little to new Ameri-
cans.

To solve this perceived
inequality they seek to divi-
de the school system along
racial and ethnic lines. In
their minds, separation
would somehow give birth
to equality.

History tells us different.

Furthermore, the pro-
posal would have negative
economic consequences for
the city.

Under current Mas-
sachusetts Law. charter
schools could consume as
much as 9% of the Quin-
cy Public Schools" budget.
In addition, state officials
could approve the school
without the support of local
officials.

Like a thief in the night,
this group would undermine
the financial stability of our
school system in a Ume of
dire financial straits.

The Hanlin proposal
ignores both history and law .
It flies in the face of Brown
V. Board of Education,
would depnve its students
of education opportunities,
and would be a step back-
ward for public education.

I would urge all residents
to contact the Department of
Education to make it clear
that segregation has no place
in Quincy or in America.

Suzie's Gourmet Pasta Salad

As 1 was helping to prepare lunch at a
recent visit to Cape Cod. my daughter Suzie
was already busy preparing her pasta salad
for dinner.

I was watching her prepare it and was
surprised at some of the ingredients she was
adding to it.lt came out sogreat that I quickly
asked her for the recipe.

1 have to add that anything Suzie cooks is
strictly healthy and usually contains organic
ingredients. And today's recipe is no excep-
tion. She starts out with rice pasta, but of
course and other favorite can be used. (She
also cooked two pounds, but today 's recipe is
for one pound). The one nice thing about this
dish, is the only thing that has to be cooked
is the pasta, and how good is that on these
hot late summer days?

PASTA SALAD

1 pound rotini (spring like pasta)

1 bottle Annie's Green Goddess Dressing

8 ounces goat cheese (crumbled)

1/2 medium cucumber (diced)

1 bag of frozen broccoli florets (un-
cooked)

2 fresh tomatoes (diced) or
red pepper (sliced thin)

a few chopped pitted black olives

First cook the pasta as directed generously

adding salt giving it more flavor after all else

is added. Suzie added sea salt.
Then just as soon as it is drained, place in a

large bowl , add the broccoli first and then the

dressing, and then the rest of the ingredients.

Mix well until blended and refrigerate.
It went well with the grilled salmon.

Group Seeks Asian
American Charter School

(Conf V/ From Page I )
city.

Charter schools are ap-
proved by the state and do
not require approval by
city's municipal or school
officials. However, funding
for each project is raised
through a percentage of
Chapter 70 funds based
on the number of students.
"Our whole entire point is
to bring the community to-
gether," said Dean Chin of
Stoughton, spokesman for
the eight board members
who submitted the prospec-
tus.

Chin suggested that some
opponents have a "knee-jerk
reaction" to such a charter
school and said the school
would stress American and
Quincy history.

"How do we bridge the
gap between Eastern and
Western education?" is the
question that Hani in Acad-
emy will address, according
to Chin who dismissed the
idea of a segregated school

enrollment.

"Maybe it was (misinter-
preted)," said Victor Ng, a
Quincy community activist
who said the idea is to meld
some of the Asian education
techniques with Western
techniques.

"Both will learn," said
Ng, calling the goal a "fu-
sion" of the best of both.
Ng pointed out that students
from Asian countries fre-
quently appear to outrank
those of other countries in
international testing scores.

According to both Chin
and Ng, the academy would
teach the histories and cul-
tures of both Western and
Eastern countries, and es-
pecially inform students of
Quincy history.

Nq resigned from the
Hanlin Academy board to
avoid a possible conflict of
interest but he said there is
support for the academy
in Quincy, particularly m
the Asian community that

represents over 2W( of the
city's population.

Mayor Thomas Koch
said Monday that he had not
received any details of the
proposal but was concerned
that any charter school
would reduce the city's
Chapter 70 funds for public
schools.

School Committee mem-
ber Nick Puleo outlined his
objections to the proposal in
a letter to the editor on Page
5. Puleo charges the acade-
my will result in segregation
and drain money from the
city's schools.

Chin said he had spoken
briefly to school officials.
The Quincy Sun was un-
able to contact School Supt.
Richard DeCristofaro.

Ng said that one board
member, Helen Wong, lives
in Quincy. Board members
include the following: Chin,
Auston Habershaw, Claire
Smithney. Ryan Daniels.
Jay Sun, Chi Leung Fung.
Zifeng Zou. and Wong.

INCUMBENT ANNE MAHONEY - one of eight candidates for School Committe - draws the
eighth ballot position last Friday inside the City Council Chamber of City Hall. At right is City
Clerk Joseph Shea.

MICHAEL COVAIS, another candidate for School Committee, draws the second spot on the
ballot for the School Committee preliminary election Sept. 22.

for the Sept. 22 mayoral pre-
liminary went to:

• Mayor Tom Koch, age
46, of 249 Newbury Ave.,
who will be listed second.

• Former Mayor William
Phelan. age 49, of 86 Mon-
roe Rd. who will be listed
third.

• Joseph O'Malley, 43, of
63 Island Ave., a letter car-
rier, will be listed fourth.

According to state law,
preliminary election ballot
positions must be drawn
randomly.

The ballot for the Nov. 3
election will list candidates
alphabetically, with incum-
bents listed first.

Also for the preliminary
election, Koch will have the
designation "candidate for
re-nomination" listed under
his name. Phelan will have
the words "former mayor"
appear under his name.

The other two candidates
- Turowski and O'Malley -
who are both first-time can-
didates - will not have any
designation.

All four candidates will
also have their street 'ad-
dresses listed under their
names.

The mayoral preliminary

election will narrow the
field from four to two can-
didates. Voters will be asked
to vote for one of the four
candidates.

The top two vote getters
in the preliminary will be on
the Nov. 3 ballot.

For the school commit-
tee ballot, incumbent Anne
Mahoney drew the first dice
— which was number 8 - so
she will have the last spot on
the ballot.

School committee can-
didate Michael Covais was
also present at the drawing.
Covais drew number 2 for
the second spot.

None of the other six
school committee candi-
dates were present for the
drawing.

This is the order of names
on the school committee
ballot for the preliminary
election:

• Barbara Isola, age 52,
of 34 Randlett St., assistant
district attorney, Plymouth
County.

• Michael Covais, age 41 ,
of 23 Pope St., a local attor-
ney.

• Emily Lebo, age 58, of
354 Highland Ave., direc-
tor of Career and Vocational

Education for the Boston
Public Schools.

• Matt Lock wood Mul-
laney, age 39, of 180 Glen-
dale Rd., a market manager
for Harvard Pilgrim's Mas-
sachusetts business.

• Karl Roos, age 41 , of 8
Park St., who works in the
pharmaceutical industry.

• Rebecca Mc Williams,
age 25, of 24 Newcomb St.,
a licensed architect.

• Steven Striffler, age 44,
of 63 Huckins Ave., a local
attorney.

• Anne Mahoney, age 44,
of 12 Ferriter St.

All of the School Com-
mittee candidates ~ except
for Mahoney - will just
have their name and ad-
dress listed on the ballot.
Mahoney will also have the
designation "candidate for
re-nomination" appear un-
der her name.

The preliminary election
Sept. 22 will narrow the list
of school committee candi-
dates from eight to six. Vot-
ers will be asked to vote for
not more than three of the
eight candidates in the pre-
liminary election.

The top three vote-getters
in the final election Nov. 3
will win four-vear terms.

Revamped Fire Inspections
Worliing Well, Koch Says

State Offers Reward For Tips On Fire

Quincy Ave. Building Will Be Razed

Mayor Thomas Koch
said Tuesday that an over-
haul of how tire safety in-
spections in city schools are
conducted has led to quicker
resolution of outstanding
problems and dramatically
improved communication
between school and fire of-
ficials.

The new school year be-
ginning next month will be
the second for the new re-
porting system, and both fire
and school officials said they
believe that issues that led to
reports in 2007 of dozens of
fire code violations in city
schools being ignored for
several years have largely
been resolved.

'There was clearly an is-
sue with this process when
we took office, and the
progress we have made is a
clear indication of the posi-

tive results that can happen
when everyone is working
together and communicat-
ing regularly," said Koch.
"1 am proud of the work the
School Department and the
Fire Department have done
to address these issues and
develop an inspection sys-
tem that works and keeps
our schools safe."

The new inspection pro-
cess requires quarterly meet-
ings between school and
fire officials, a sign-off on
inspection forms for school
principals, coordinated fol-
low-up visits to schools to
address any extraordinary
issues or violations, and a
streamlined reporting sys-
tem that provides the ap-
propriate information to
individual schools, adminis-
trators and fire officials, of-

ficials said.

Fire Capt. Richard Bryan
and Director of Custodians
Kevin Segalla, who worked
together to create the new
system, both said that the in-
spection process has been a
"tremendous success."" with
a number of long-standing
issues resolved and areas of
contention addressed much
easier with the improved
and open lines of communi-
cation.

Bryan said many of then
most serious issues outlined
in the 2007 reports-includ-
ing missing and expired fire
extinguishers-have been ad-
dressed. And Segalla noted
that the system with school
and fire officials working
together provides a "check
and balance that has been a
huge success."

State officials are offer-
ing a reward for m forma-
tion related to a fire at 441
Quincy Ave. where an Aug.
16th blaze gutted much of
the structure.

"All accidental scenarios
have been ruled out." Jenni-
fer Meith, spokesperson for
the state fire marshal's office
said Monday. "Investigators
believe it was intentionally
set."

As a result. Mieth said
that the incident has been
listed with the state's Ar-
son Watch Reward Program
which offers "up to $5000
for information which helps
to solve the crime."

Persons with informa-
tion should call the Watch
hotline, 1-800-682-9229,
according to Mieth who said
that state investigators are
working with the city's po-

lice and fire investigators.

Police officials are still
investigating the incident,
according to Captain John
Dougan who said, "It's still
considered undetermined."

"The fire started outside

but (there is) no evidence
of an accelerant," said Dou-
gan who reported that one
person has been interviewed,
"They saw somebody be-
hind the building."

Dougan said that any per-
son with informafion should
contact Police Detective
Dave Pacino who has been
assigned to the invesfiga-
fion.

While the invesfigation
is underway, the city did get
some good news from Build-
ing Inspector Jay Duca who

said Tuesday, "1 hey agreed
to tear it down."

Duca was referring to an
agreement by the owners of
the building and property,
the Schofield Realty Trust
to demolish the former fruit
stand which stands at the
base of Falls Blvd.

Even before last week's
fire, city officials had sought
to remove the building.

In October, 2008, city
councillors voted unani-
mously to support its demo-
lition through a resolution
submitted by council presi-
dent Jay Davis, Ward 4.

At the time. Acting Fire
Chief Joseph Barron called
the 58-year-old building a
hazard and Duca attempted
to get a court order for de-
molition of the structure.

Forrest charged that 150

Delahunt 's office has

After Sarah Palin, the

constantly, according to
Laforest who said the word
was, "Granny is at risk."

Off
Campus
Housing

Here's a refresher on a
timely subject, off campus
housing of college students.
Parents of college stu-
dents will be motivating
their children back out of
the house, back to school,
while many will be occupy-
ing off campus housing for
their first time. While preoc-
cupied with meeting the stu-
dents' needs, and prepara-
tion for another school year,
take a moment to consider
and prepare for their safety
as well.

Typically, colleges are
quite proactive when it
comes to life safety issues
within campus dormito-
ries. I can't speak for their
involvement regarding pri-
vately owned off campus
housing, while I can add
some suggestions here for
a safer school year while
children are residing within
these buildings. Therefore,
let me convey a few words,
which will focus on a few
specific areas of off campus
housing requiring some at-
tention.

Make certain that there
are working smoke detec-
tors outside bedrooms, and
at the base of stairwells.
Heated smoke naturally
rises, while stairwells can
act as chimneys funneling
smoke upwards. The base of
stairwells is then a practical
location for early notifica-
tion of a smoke condition
on another level. In mul-
tifamily dwellings, smoke
detectors should be present
within common hallways to
alert residents of a smoke
condition within another
unit of the building.

I suggest a carbon mon-
oxide detector be placed
outside of bedrooms as well .
Our Nicole's Law is quite
specific requiring CO detec-
tors on each habitable level,
while 1 can't speak for the
requirements, if any, in oth-
er states. Carbon monoxide
is colorless, tasteless, odor-
less and deadly, so consider-
ation for detection should be
made prior to moving into
housing.

All exits must be clear
of storage and obstruction.
Remember, in an emergen-
cy, windows can be used
in the event that secondary
egress is required, especial-
ly if they afford access to
roofs. Therefore, make cer-
tain windows can be easily
opened.

FIRE SAFETY

by Captain Tom Lyons

Fire Prevention Bureau
Quincy Fire Department

Occupying bedrooms
within a basement or attic
without adequate secondary
means of egress is hazard-
ous and must be avoided.
You can contact the build-
ing department within a
city or town to confirm the
legitimacy of a basement or
attic unit. Adequate second-
ary means of egress from
a bedroom or apartment is
essential during an emer-
gency, anything less is un-
acceptable.

Candles, their use being
popular with students, must

not be left unattended. Keep
them a safe distance from
combustibles while they
should be inaccessible to
pets. Do not leave lit candles
unattended!

If you or others smoke,
accidental ignition of up-
holstered furniture and
mattresses is the leading
cause of residential deaths
throughout the United States.
Smoking with alcohol use
exacerbates this problem, if
you must smoke, please do
so responsibly.

Finally, cooking is the

leading cause of residential
fires, while unattended cook-
mg IS the leading behavioral
factor. Do not leave cooking
unattended as well.

With all that parents and
students have to think about
while preparing to emigrate
to cities throughout this
country, off campus hous-
ing safety might not be at
the forefront of their efforts
at this moment. I therefore
suggest that some consid-
eration and preparation be
given to this subject to as-
sure a safe college year.

Phelan Would Push
To Consolidate 911 Dispatch System

Former Mayor and May-
oral candidate Bill Phelan
has called on the city to
consolidate Quincys dis-
patch operations and get rid
of a system that he called
■'dangerous, wasteful, and
out-dated."'

"When I was mayor, I
proposed merging the city's
police and Hre dispatch op-
erations into one central
location after I studied the
issue and determined that
there was a way to improve
public safety and save mon-
ey at the same time." Phelan
said. "And if 1 get back into
office, 1 will hnish the job."

Phelan proposed consol-

idating the dispatch and cut
the funding for the current
system in his FY 05 budget,
but the union opposed the
move.

"The current system,
which is rare or even unique
in Massachusetts, makes
it all too easy for calls to
be missed," Phelan said.
"Thankfully, last week's
missed call ended without
anyone hurt, but are we go-
ing to wait until something
bad does happen before we
tix this ineffective system?"

Under the current sys-
tem, 91 I calls in Quincy are
answered at the city's new.
state-of-the-art dispatch
center by trained dispatch-

ers, while two uniformed
firefighters are employed
to listen in 24 hours a day
to the calls from a separate
location two blocks away.
The firefighters then decide
whether the fire department
should respond. Most cit-
ies in the state have a single
dispatch point.

"Not only is the system
unsafe, as was demonstrated
last week, but it also costs
more. Why should we pay
more taxpayer dollars for
a system that is dangerous
and inefficient?

"We will fix this system,
we will make Quincy safer,
and we will save taxpayer
money in the process."

union.

That non-response re-
sulted in a flurry of press
conferences, investigations,
and. finally, disciplines for
the two dispatch officers on
duty that night.

But the response issue
won't go away for two rea-
sons.

First, the firefighters'
union is blaming ineffective
and 12-year-old equipment.

Secondly, the incident
highlights questions of
duplicate response raised
last Spring during the City
Council's fire department
budget review and, also, by
former Mayor William Phel-
an, a candidate for mayor, as
detailed on page 14.

In media reports, both
Hector and Katie Gonzalez
were quoted as saying there
were more than enough
emergency personnel on
hand during Soledad's birth.

Katie Gonzales said m a
WBZ report. "I would have
felt more overwhelmed than
I already was. If the fire truck

had been here, it would have
been overkill."

Arienti said this week
that the firefighters' dispatch
problem"... had to do with
the equipment and little
quirks in the equipment it-
self."

At the same time. Arienti
discounted suggestions that
the dispatch system should
be reviewed.

"In the City o f Quincy.
the way it's dispatched is
the best possible way," said
Arienti.

Both Mayor Thomas
Koch and Acting Fire Chief
Joseph Barron said nearly
the same thing this week
when asked whether the
city's medical response sys-
tem should be overhauled.

"We have an excellent
system... 1 don't know
that there are better models
out there." Barron did note
that he'd discussed the inci-
dent with Police Chief Paul
Keenan and both will work
for additional improvement.

Citing the recent ex-
ample. Barron said that the

response would not always
be the same with out the fire
department, if the incident
occurred on one of the city's
peninsula! Houghs Neck or
Squantum).

Koch said he would be
happy to work toward a re-
imbursement plan for the
city's medical response
teams but is satisfied with
the present system.

Last May, City Council-
lors discussed the cost of the
fire department's medical
response system in dollars
and manpower after review-
ing statistics showing the
department answered 5,050
medical calls and 766 fires.

At the time. Councillor
John Keenan. Chairman of
the Finance Committee said,
"There's a lot of money out
there that we are not get-
ting."

Both Keenan. Ward 2
Councillor Daniel Ray-
mondi and Arienti referred
to the payments made to the
ambulance companies af-
ter firefighters do the initial
work.

Koch Campaign Launches
* Getting The Job Done' Website Series

'Parents For Pageant' Ask Council
To Review Proposal For City Track

Mayor Tom Koch's cam-
paign this week launched a
new website series entitled
"Getting The Job Done,"
which will provide in-depth
detail of the problems the
administration confronted,
what it did to solve them,
and the mayor's plans for
the future of Quincy, the
campaign announced.

The first installment will
detail the administration's
work to end the turmoil in
the Quincy Police Depart-
ment and confront the city's
drug problem that the mayor
said was "ignored for too
long at City Hall."

The second issue will be
City finances and the milli-
ons of dollars in unpaid bills
and hidden deficits Mayor

Koch said he worked to fix
upon taking office.

The campaign will add
to the series with a new is-
sue almost every day from
now until Preliminary Elec-
tion Day on Sept. 22.

The series is available on
the Mayor's website, www.
may ortomkoch com

"Out there talking with
people, our residents want
honest answers to serious
questions - not dishonest at-
tacks and negative antics,"
said Koch. "We are talking
about these issues every day
in every possible forum, and
using the website is another
helpful tool."

Koch said further issues
will include: Economic de-
velopment, challenging the

Colleen Cleary
On Dean's List

Colleen Cleary, of Quin-
cy, was named to the Dean's
List for the 2008-2009 aca-
demic year in the College
of Nursing at Villanova
University. Cleary just com-
pleted her junior year.

Honeywell energy deal and
its inflated bills, reforms in
the water and sewer depart-
ment, the new regional trash
contract, negotiations for a
new health insurance pro-
gram for City workers and
negotiations a wage freeze
that saved millions of dol-
lars among others.

He added that the work
ordered by state regulators
and independent auditors to
fix the city's finances are a
primary discussion point
when he talks to residents,
saying that people want to
hear about "the $5 million
inappropriately shifted to
the Water and Sewer fund
to pay for public safety; the
$4.1 million in costs for the
Honeywell project that had
to be added to the taxes; and
the $4.7 million unfunded
debt payments, unfunded
contracts, and misused re-
serves that threatened our
future."

The group "Parents for
Pageant" is requesting that
the first item on the City
Council's agenda when they
reconvene be to review the
proposal to build a track in
the city of Quincy on Faxon
Field.

"We submitted to the
council a petition in Octo-
ber of 2008 consisting of
3,000 signatures of Quincy
residents opposed to plac-
ing the track on Faxon Field
and in support of the origi-
nal site of Pageant Field,"
said group spokesperson
Maureen Keeley.

"Quincy 's City Council
has appropriated site specif-
ic moneys for a track to be
placed on Pageant Field. We
note that the School Com-
mittee is in favor of placing
the track on Pageant Field.

"At the time par-
ents4pageant gave the city
council our petition with
3,000 signatures, we also
requested, in a cover let-
ter, for the council to have

a meeting and introduce a
resolution that would bnng
to vote the City Council's
continued support of site
specific funding for a track
at Pageant Field.

"By doing this, we be-
lieve it would have stopped
the mayor from wastmg
more taxpayer's moneys
on the ill conceived Faxon
Field site. In addition, we
know and understand that
the City Council cannot tell
the Mayor where to place
the track. However, the city
council must approve the
money for the track to be
built, something the Mayor
alone cannot do."

Keeley also said, "If the
council were to vote to reaf-
firm their site specific fund-
ing of Pageant Field, the
Mayor would have no other
option than to abandon the
ill conceived track plans for
Faxon Field. At this point,
the Council has done noth-

ing in regard to introduc-
ing any resolutions and the
Mayor has been allowed to
continue to waste taxpayers'
moneys at an alarming rate

"The point we are try-
ing to make is this. .Mayor
KcK'h has thrown away over
106k on the Pageant Field
designs plus spent 75k or
more on Faxon Field with
no certainty that a track at
Faxon Field will be allowed
by the Mass Department of
Environmental Protection
or the US Army Corp of
Engineers.

"The Mayor has done
this without any approval
of moneys from the Quincy
City Council. So, at this
time, we would like the City
Council to heed to a recent
letter from Mayoral Candi-
date William Phelan to in-
troduce this resolution and
keep the money site specific
for the Pageant Field track
plans," she added.

COVERED WITH MOLD?

While exp<^)sure to mold ma> not
necessanly pose a health problem,
some people can expenence allergic
reactions to mold growth m the
home that is active, excesswe, and
persistent. Moreover, uncontrolled
mold growth can potentiallv
damage interior surfaces and even
structural components of the home
In light of these p)ossible outcomes,
homeowners ma> wonder if their
homeowners insurance policies
provide coverage The answer to
this question depends on both the
specific language used in the policv
and the cause of the contamination.
Homeowners policies that are
"specific peril" policies require
proof that the mold resulted from
a covered loss ("listed peril").
Otherwise, mold growth and
damage that results from something
other than a water-damage claim

would not be covered.

Mold IS an airborne irntant that
can cause people to experience tear> .
red eyes and damage the surfaces
and structure of a home Removing
mold and repainng its damage can
be costlv. so It IS important lu check
your insurance fjolicy to make sure
you have the nght coverage At

Second Leg Of The 'Hike Heard
Around The Neck' Aug, 31

Mike Berry Hikes
35 Miles To Concord

Troop 6 Scout Leader
Mike Berry started his walk
to raise money for Houghs
Neck Community Council
in the first official heat wave
of the summer.

Berry walked from
Houghs Neck to the North
Bridge in Concord Aug. 15
and didn't let the heat and
humidity stop him from
reaching the bridge.

According to Berry's
pedometer, he covered the
nearly 35-mile trek in 10
hours, 47 minutes and 28
seconds. The number of
steps taken totaled 79,101 .

The walk, called "The
Hike heard around the
Neck," started at the Houghs
Neck Congregational

Church at 310 Manet Ave
at 5 am. He walked to the
Old North Church in Bos-
ton's North End and then
followed the colonial route
to the Lexington Green and
then on to the North Bridge.

The return trip from the
North Bridge was postponed
from Aug. 16 to Aug. 31

After reaching the bridge.
Berry had planned to walk

the six-plus miles back to
the hotel for the night and
start out at 5 a.m. the fol-
lowing morning for the
return trip. However, high
humidity and heat kept him
from keeping his feet dry
and blisters start to form on
the balls of his feet. The hot
spots on his feet would be-
come blisters the next day,
if he walked the return trip,
so the return trip was post-
poned until Aug 3 1 (weather
permitting.)

Berry was nominated for
the hononary title of Mayor
of Houghs Neck by Marty
Aikens and Mike Cheney.
They nominated Berry for
the contest as a way to thank
him for his many years of
community involvement.

At the kick off break-
fast for the 2009 Mayor of
Houghs Neck Contest, Kim
Fallon, another candidate
for Mayor of Houghs Neck,
came up with slogans about
each of the other candi-
dates.

Fallon's sign for Mike
was "Mike take a hike" and
that is just what Mike did.

MIKE BERRY (right), a candidate for the honorary title of
"Mayor of Houghs Neck," receives a good-luck send-off from
Marty Aikens before starting his 35-niile walk from Houghs
Neck to the Old North Bridge in Concord.

Clubfeet refers to a defer- range of therapies and surger-

L

mity of the foot exhibited by a
curled shape or twisted posi-
tion of the heel and toes. The
majority of clubfeet can be
corrected in infancy in about
six to eight weeks with the
proper gentle manipulations
and plaster casts. Treatment
is based on an understanding
of the anatomy of the foot and
the responses of its muscles,
ligaments, and bone to c»n-ec-
tive position changes gradually
obtained by manipulation and
casting. Some babies with this
condition may need surgical
correction. However, results
are better if bone and joint sur-
gery can be avoided. In order
to take advantage of the favor-
able elasticity of the tissues,
the treatment should begin in
the first week or two of life.

Podiatrists are medical pro-
fessranals who use a wide

to foot structure and function.
If your foot problem concerns
pronation, we invite you to
consult with us about HyPro-

ing necessary to perfonn this
minimally invasive procedure

Bemazzani Students Visit Quincy Medical Center

Two busloads of third and
fourth grade students from
the Bemazzani Elementary
School in Quincy recently
visited Quincy Medical
Center (QMC).

Fortunately, their visit
was a field trip and not the
result of a mass disaster.
QMC staff from a variety
of departments gave the stu-
dents a behind-the-scenes
look at what happens in
each area of the hospital and
introduced them to the wide
variety of health care career
opportunities.

QMC President and CEO
Gary Gibbons, MD, and
Elizabeth Cadigan, senior
vice president of Patient
Care Services, welcomed

the students, teachers and
chaperones, before staff
members escorted them on
a tour, which included stops
in the infection control, ra-
diology, laboratory, respira-
tory therapy and emergency
departments.

The students also got a
chance to talk to staff from
FaJlon Ambulance and ex-
plore two ambulances.

Quincy Medical Center
is a 196-bed acute care com-
munity-teaching hospital,

ity, most personalized and

A Job Well Done

On Tuesday, Aug. 18, at approximately 5:30 a.m., Quin-
cy Police Officers A J. Carthas and John McGovem were
dispatched to the CVS Pharmacy on Beale Street for a shop-
lifting incident that had just oc-
curred.

Dispatch informed the re-
sponding units that the suspect
fled in a black Mercedes af-
ter stealing numerous types of
body wash and soaps. Moments
later, Officer Robert Kelly told
Dispatch that he was stopping
the suspect vehicle on the Nep-
onset Bridge. Officer Carthas
joined Officer Kelly as they
approached the male operator
and a female passenger. Officer
Kelly asked the driver where he
was coming from and the driver replied he just picked up
his passenger at CVS. When asked, the driver denied going
into the CVS. The passenger said she just went in to use the
bathroom.

As the Officers questioned the occupants, they observed
seven containers of baby formula and a bottle of Tide laun-
dry detergent laying on the back seat. Officer Kelly asked
both occupants for identification, but they did not have any.
Back at the CVS, Officer McGovem interviewed an em-
ployee who saw the male suspect trying to leave the store
with a bag full of items. When she noticed he was about
to walk out the door, she got the attention of another em-
ployee who was able to stop him and get back the bag of
items. While they were trying to retrieve the bag, the suspect
kept stating that, 'it is not my stuff-I was just carrying it for
someone else." The suspect then fled and that is when the
employees were able to get the description and matching
plate of the vehicle.

Officer McGovem then informed the Officers with the
suspects that the surveillance tape were viewed and the fe-
male was seen on camera leaving with a bag of her own
unpaid items. The description of the video matched the oc-
cupants of the vehicle.

Officer Carthas informed the male driver that he was seen
on video inside the store trying to leave with a bag of items
that weren't paid for; he again said that he was carrying the
bag for someone else and when prodded, he said it was for
his female passenger. When questioned about his original
statement about not being in the store, the male suspect re-
plied, "That stuff ain't mine." The female suspect again de-
nied buying anything and said that after using the bathroom,
she left the store looking for the male suspect.

Officer Carthas then transported the male suspect back
to CVS so that the employees could positively identify
him. The employees confirmed that the male suspect was
the same man attempting to take the bag out of the store.
The Officer then mentioned the cans of formula found in the
suspect's backseat, so a quick check was made and it was
noted that several containers were missing. A list of items
recovered totaled $134.76 for the bagged Body Wash, soap
and lotion, and the second total was for $158. 14, which
consisted of the formula and the laundry detergent; both re-
ceipts totaled $292.90.

Based on the witness' accounts, video evidence and state-
ments made by the suspects, the male suspect, a 42-year old
Dorchester resident and the female suspect, a 43-year old
Dorchester resident, were placed under arrest for "Larceny
over $250," a felony. During the booking process, it was
learned that the male suspect gave a false name, which also
revealed that he did not have a driver's license. Based on
these additional factors, he was additionally charged with
giving a "False Name to Police Following Arrest and Unli-
censed Operation."

The female suspect was also booked and she too pro-
vided a false name, but through the fingerprinting process,
her real identity showed that there were seven warrants for
her arrest; she too was charged with giving a "False Name
to Police Following Arrest."

HEALTH AND SAFETY FAIR: Saturday, Aug 29,
from II a.m. to 3 p.m. at Hannaford's Market on Hancock
Street. There will be child fingerprinting, child car seat in-
stallation, and blood pressure checks, along with vehicles

tion, contact Lt. Dan Minton at 617-745-5719.

DRIVE: From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 29 at Han-
naford's Market, as part of the Health and Safety Fair. The
Quincy Police Department, Children's Hospital of Boston,
and the Glennon Family urge you to support this community
event. For more information or to set up an apf)ointment,
contact Lt. Dan Minton at 617-745-5719. The blood drive is
a rain or shine event.

BEWARE: According to Detective/Lt. John Steele,
there is a diamond scam going around the Asian business
community. A person walks into the business and identifies
himself as a diamond wholesaler, then exhibits a selection
of diamonds at a great price. To establish authenticity, the
wholesaler suggests that you take the diamond to a jeweler
for appraisal. Once you agree to a price, the suspect will
give you a different diamond instead of the one you had as-
sessed. At this time, it is unknown how the diamond switch

Steve Holler of Houghs
Neck was recently elected
president of Ihe Boston
Harbor Lobsterman's As-
sociation, a group of more
than 50 independent lobster-
man, mostly from the South
Shore, but some as far north
as Billerica.

As these lobsterman
are all self-employed, the
BHLA gives them an oppor-
tunity to meet monthly, dis
cuss issues relative to their
industry, including pncmg
issues, insurance, necessary
gear, etc. While these lob-
sterman are in competition
with each other on the mar-
ket, they realize the impor-
tance of uniting as a group
to have a stronger voice in
the community.

The president of the
BHLA represents the group
in speaking on conservation
issues, construction projects
in local waters and learns
what other organizations
are dealing with while ex-
pressing the concerns of the
BHLA. Many members are
also members of the Massa-
chusetts Lobsterman 's As-
sociation, of which Hollqr
is a delegate and executive
committee member.

Holler grew up in

Houghs Neck and as young

child he'd often see the

-blue fish breaking in front

STEVE HOLLER

of his house Hed grab his
rod and catch a few before
he'd head to Great Hill Ll-
ementary School, As he got
older, he hustled for tips at
Harvey "s VV hart , Hrst carry-
ing gear for the fisherman
then graduating to filleting
flounders.

Steve's father. Fred Hol-
ler, took up lobstering as
his retirement job. and thes
fished together for 16 years
side by side. When Fred
was ready to stay ashore.
Steve took over the boat and
continues today as owner
operator of the "November
Gale." (The boat name refers
to the Gales of November
that took down the "Mighty
Fitz" Edmund Fitzgerald in
the Great Lakes in 1975).

Upon being elected
President of the BHLA.
Holler "It's quite an honor

to be elected President of an
organization representing
people like Paul I rbanus.
Ken Cnspo, Skjp Ryan and
my uncle Chuck, all Quincy
lobsterman. who 1 ' ve kK)ked
up to my entire life "

rhe BHLA is known for
Its community involvement
Its most popular event is
"Vet's Da>," where the
lobsterman take veterans
out for a day fishing The
BHLA lobsterman donate
their boats and their time
to give the veterans a day
at sea.

For some, it's the only
da> they get out of the VA
all year.

"I've been participating
in Vet's Day for over 20
>ears and it's the highlight
of the year for the BHLA."
Holler said

Another communits out-
reach project undertaken by
the BHLA is a boat ride giv-
en to the Sunrise House in
Hull . a summer camp for in-
ner city kids, and the BHLA
volunteers there boats and
their time to take the kids
on a boat ride

Holler celebrates the
Christmas season each >ear.

Fall is the time of year to
get your house in order be-
fore winter sets in. For most
homeowners, this means
it is once again time for a
good, old-fashioned gutter
cleaning.

Here are a few tips and
tricks for safe and effective
gutter cleaning:

Ladder Safety: Always
let someone know you will
using a ladder to work on
your roof or gutters. Use a
safe and sturdy ladder, pref-
erably with a small shelf
strong enough to hold a
five-gallon bucket to col-
lect gutter debris. Make sure
to secure the bucket with a
lanyard. We recommend a
four-legged step ladder for
a single story home, and an
extension ladder for a two-
story home. An orchard
ladder is not recommended
because there are only three
legs for support and they can
become unbalanced.

A wooden ladder is also
not recommended because
they are often wobbly and
difficult to safely balance.
Fiberglass ladders seem
to be the sturdiest, but are
also the heaviest. If you are
cleaning gutters for hours
upon hours, muscle fatigue
can set in from moving the
heavy ladder numerous
times. If this is the case, try
using an aluminum ladder,
which is the second-choice
option for strength and sup-
port.

Inspect the ladder for
defects, dents or loose parts
before climbing. If your lad-
der is fastened together with
screws and bolts, make sure
all parts are tightened. When
opening up a step ladder,
make sure the extension-
hinge arms are fully extend-
ed and locked in place.
Before climbing the lad-

der, lightly jump on the first
rung a few times to make
sure the ground is secure.
Sometimes the soil is soft,
or there might be a gopher
hole underneath one of the
ladder legs. Either condition
could cause the ladder to
collapse with the combined
weight of the ladder and a
person. A piece of half-inch
plywood can be placed un-
der the ladder legs to keep it
level and steady.

When climbing the lad-
der, always remember the
"Three Point Rule." As
much as possible try to have
both legs and one hand firm-
ly secure on the ladder at all
times to provide stability
and balance while cleaning.
Conversely, do not lean out
from the ladder balancing
on one leg while using two
hands to clean debris from
the gutter. Oftentimes, it is
this stretching and reaching
for that last scoop of debris
that lands a person in the
hospital. Lastly, if at all pos-
sible, have someone hold the
ladder to provide additional
safety while climbing.

Garden Hose: To use a
garden hose with normal wa-
ter pressure (30-40 psi - the
standard for municipal wa-
ter services), simply attach
a pistol-grip trigger spray
nozzle. This type of spray
nozzle allows you to adjust
the water pressure with the
use of just one hand. This
style of spray nozzle comes
with a handy pistol -grip trig-
ger, allowing it to be easily
hung over the front edge of
the gutter while moving the
ladder, or while using a gut-
ter scoop. This type of spray
nozzle can be purchased at
any hardware store.

Spraying out the gutter
is generally best when most
of the larger debris has al-

ready been removed. It's
difficult to spray out leaves
and pine needles that have
piled up over the summer
and fall. Spray toward the
downspout (leader pipe)
so the small, murky debris
flows down the downspout.
If the downspout is connect-
ed to an underground drain
that goes out to your street,
the base of the downspout
needs to be disconnected so
the debris can be released at
this point, preventing a po-
tential clog further down the
system under your lawn or
driveway.

Gutter Scoop: Scooping
out the leafy debris seems to
be the best overall method
for cleaning out the gutter.
An excellent tool for this
job is the bright orange plas-
tic "Gutter Getter" scoop,
which can be purchased at
most hardware stores. This
tool is unique because the
front scooping edge is very
thin and it forms itself to the
bottom of the gutter trough,
making it easy to scoop out
even the toughest of debris
in any size gutter system.

Stay away from using a
metal scooping tool because
the bottom of the gutter and
seams can be damaged.
Scraping the bottom of a
steel gutter can introduce
areas to rust, and if the bot-
tom of the gutter is already
rusting, the rusting process
could speed up. Using a
metal scooping tool can also
damage seams in the gut-
ter because the motion of
scraping out the bottom of a
gutter with a metal tool can
damage the caulking that
seals two ends of a gutter to-
gether (called a seam).

Wear Gloves: Gloves
can help protect hands
against dirty, rotting leaf de-
bris that often contains bird,
pigeon and squirrel drop-
pings that are ridden with
bacteria. Gloves can also
prevent painful cuts from
the torn metal shards of an
old, ragged gutter. Cotton
gloves can soak up dirty wa-
ter that exposes skin to bac-
teria. Leather gloves are not
as maneuverable and tend to
shrivel up when they dry af-
ter cleaning. Rubber gloves
can get poked or torn by
metal shards in the gutter.
Thick, suede glove material
is recommended because it

is superior to cotton, thin
leather or rubber gloves.
Protective Eye Wear:

Eye protection is a must be-
cause one never knows what
might fly out of the down-
spout when cleaning gutters.
People have experienced
rats, birds, frogs, wasps and
bees leaving at high speeds
once they start removing a
clog, and the last thing they
want to have happen is an
eye injury.

Rake Off Roof: Rake
all debris off the roof first.
Otherwise, the next rain will
wash all the debris down
into the clean gutter, clog-
ging it up again. Also, debris
left on the roof can lead to
water damming up in val-
leys or around the chimney,
which can cause erosion and
roof leaks over time.

Rubber Shoes: If walk-
ing on the roof is necessary
to perform gutter clean-
ing, it is good to use rubber
soled shoes. Rubber soles
tend to adhere best and pre-
vent slipping and falls. Roof
tops tend to be moist in the
morning, so it is best to walk
on the roof after the sun is
well up in the sky and has
dried up all the moisture.
Late mornings or early af-
ternoons are the best times
to walk on a roof.

DownspoutsUnclogged:
Make sure the downspouts
(leader pipe) are clear. After
all the gutters are cleaned
out, run the water hose
down the downspout at full
pressure. If the water backs
up out of the top, a clog is
present. Normally, it can be
unclogged by tapping on
the side of the downspout.
But if that doesn't work, the
downspout and back need to
be removed, and it should
be flushed from the bottom.
If a clog is present, and the
downspout is connected to
an underground drain, it is
best to disconnect the bot-
tom of the downspout from
the underground drain. Oth-
erwise, the clog may move
to the underground drain.

CAUTION: When un-
clogging the downspout,
make sure protective eye-
wear is being used, be-
cause anything can escape
from the downspout at high
speeds once the clog is be-
ing removed.

Played in Support of Breast Cancer Awareness

NQHS Girls Soccer 3'"
Annual Game A Success

By SEAN BRENNAN

The North Quincy Red
Raiders girls soccer pro-
gram held its third annual
Alumni Soccer Game last
Saturday at Veterans Me-
morial Stadium, and it was,
again, a rousing success.

52 former players, from
as far back as the Class of
1986, came back to the soc-
cer tields of Quincy in sup-
port of the program they
love. There was also an-
other reason these women
joined the current 2009
varsity team on the turf:
they were all there playing
in support of Breast Cancer
Awareness.

The teams both wore
pink t-shirts, the primary
color of support for this
cause, and at the beginning
of the game, all of the play-
ers from both teams were
introduced and all went to
midtield and stood in the
formation of the Breast
Cancer Awareness ribbon.

"It was a great day of
soccer and we had so many
former and current play-
ers come back to join us in
supporting this cause and to
play in this annual game,"
said NQHS head coach
Paul Bregoli. "The alumni
came back on a mission.
They all still love to play
and they all still get after
it on the field and the out-
come of the game was bit-
tersweet for me . The al umni
spanked the current varsity

team, 4-1.

"It was great to see them
all still playing at a high
level, which is a testament
to their love of the game
and to this program, but it
also showed me and this
year's team that we have a
lot of work to get ready for
the upcoming season."

The alumni squad
jumped out to a 2-0 lead
just ten minutes into the
game. Betsy Stone, the sec-
ond leading scorer all-time
for the Red Raider program
with 62 points, scored the
game's first goal and by
halftime the score had bal-
looned to 2-0.

"They (the alumni) came
out firing and really took
control of the game," added
Bregoli. "It was rewarding
to watch them all play so
well . All of these girls, over
my last 14 years as head
coach, have helped put the
North Quincy girls soccer
program on the map. There
was a great sense of pride
from that alumni team and
the overwhelming response
that we got from former
players was great to see.

"It is nice motivation to
the current team that if they
want to continue the suc-
cess we have had over the
last 14 years then they need
to improve their game and
play hard all the time."

The 2009 team would fi-
nally get on the scoreboard
in the second half. Senior

Maria DiPietro found se-
nior Colleen Cunningham
on a breakaway, but that
would be all the scoring the
varsity team could manage
against the stout alumni de-
fense.

"The game was fun but
to see so many spectators
and players come out and
support both the program
and Breast Cancer Aware-
ness was special," said
Bregoli. "We had people
at the gate give money for
that cause when donations
were not asked for. We
also had support from local
business such as Fratelli's
Pastry Shop, which donat-
ed breakfast for everyone
there, and Bob Keezer, who
donated the t-shirts for the
game.

"I would also like to rec-
ognize NQHS graduate Mi-
chelle Gardiner who sang
the National Anthem and
the Quincy Park Depart-
ment who donated their PA
system for us to use during
the pre-game ceremonies.
Overall, it was a successful
day."

The 2009 season will of-
ficially begin today (Thurs-
day) when tryouts for the
upcoming year start with
double-sessions at Quarry
Hills.

the next two weeks, will be
doing fall previews for the
upcoming 2009 high school
sports season.

Team Captured South River League Title

Quincy Youth Junior 's

League 14-Under Team

Wins Championship

Quincy Youth Baseball's
Junior League's Under- 14
baseball team added another
piece of hardware to the al-
ready successfiil QYB 2009
summer of success.

On the heels of Quincy
Youth Baseball 14-Under
All-Star team winning the
Massachusetts State Title
(Quincy Sun issue Aug. 5),
the Junior League 14-Un-
der team captured the South
River League Champion-
ship. The team finished their
season with a 13-2 record.

Combining solid pitch-
ing, tight defense and excel-
lent base running, most no-
tably by Matt McPhail and
Padraig Geaney, the team
entered the South River
League playoffs determined
to win it all.

In the first playoff game,
Quincy defeated Marshfield,
21-6, with every Quincy
batter hitting safely. Playing
without Tom Largey, one of
Quincy 's top hitters, the rest
of the team picked up the
slack. Mike Mollins, Robbie
Munroe and Mike Augus-
tine each had three hits and
Geaney, John Laveilee and
John Calla each finished the
game with two hits each.

Brendan Cox played well
at catcher and McPhail and
Munroe pitched well for
Quincy, holding Marshfield
in check all game long.

In the semifinals, Quincy

knocked off a strong Tri-
Town team, 7-4. John Lavei-
lee, after allowing three runs
in the first inning, setded
down and allowed one run
in the second inning, before
shutting down Tri-Town
over the next four innings.
Ben Martin came on in relief
in the seventh and struck out
the first two batters he faced,
and then got the next batter
to ground out to shortstop to
end the game.

Two defensive plays in
the fifth inning were the dif-
ference in the game for Quin-
cy. Trailing Tri-Town 4-3,
third baseman Dylan Porter
fielded a hard ground ball
over third base and gunned
down a runner at the plate
to prevent anoiner Tri-Town
score; second baseman Alex
Beers, who had a key double
play in the first round game
against Marshfield, followed
Porter's play by racing out
into short right field to make
a highlight reel catch to end
the scoring threat.

Quincy would score two
runs in the sixth and seventh
inning to earn the win.

Mike Mollins (two hits),
John Laveilee, John Calla,
Mike Murphy and Tim
Martin all had big hits for
Quincy.

In the South River
League championship game
against Hull, Quincy had
to overcome the absence of

four key players at short-
stop, second base, catcher
and left field (due to family
vacations and a non- baseball
injury), but the team still had
enough firepower to soundl}
defeat Hull, 8-1.

Mike Augustine pitched
a complete game to earn
the clinching win and Mike
Mollms, Dylan Porter and
John Calla had two hits each.
John Laveilee and Mike Ha-
ley also had hits for Quincy.

Defensively, John Ya-
cano played a great game at
shortstop and Matt McPhail
and Haley were solid in the
outfield.

The 15-member team,
success on the baseball dia-
mond aside, was judged to
be one of the finest groups of
boys ever to represent QYB
and the city. Every player on
the team benefited from con-
stant encouragement from
their teammates; gained
confidence as the season
progressed and measurably
improved their play at the
plate and in the field.

The team's outstand-
ing behavior was due in no
small part to their coach,
Tom Hobin, who in addiUon
to giving solid baseball in-
struction, was exceptionally
fair and considerate in play-
ing each boy equally and by
his providing a great model
of good sportsmanship.

with individual and group
instruction, skills and condi-
tioning training, and played
in organized games. Many

that they particularly en-
joyed the five-on-five scrim-
mages where they had the
opportunity to show off the
new skills they had leamed
with parents and coaches on
hand on the last day of the
three-day camp.

The final day of camp
also featured competitions
among the campers; Kevin

Tran won the Free-Throw

Quincy Father Cycles For His Kids,
Other Children Struggling With Serious Illness

Rodman Ride For Kids Sept. 26

Tips For Teens

Warding Off Acne Flare-Ups

On Saturday. Sept. 26,
Jerry McNeil of Quincy will
hit the road for the 5th year
to cycle in the 19th Annual
Rodman Ride for Kids.

As part of Starlight Chil-
dren's Foundation's Bike
Team, he's raising funds for
Starlight's local programs
that brighten the lives of seri-
ously ill children. Jerry rides
for all of Starlight's children
and families, but most im-
portantly, for his own sons,
J.T. and Nicholas.

When J.T. was 4, he was
diagnosed with a condition
that forces him to deal with
chronic pain. This news
came around the same time
his younger brother. Nich-
olas, was having kidney
surgery.. J.T.'s first grade
teacher, who witnessed
J.T.'s daily struggles, told
the McNeils about Starlight
Children's Foundation, and
they have been members
ever since.

Starlight helps seriously
ill children and their fami-
lies cope with their pain, fear
and isolation through en-
tertainment, education and
family activities. Starlight
reaches out to families with
children and teens suffering
from chronic or life-threat-
ening medical conditions to
provide fun and interactive
programs both in and out of
the hospital.

For example, Starlight
hosts monthly family activi-
ties called Great Escapes to
give families a break from
the daily challenges of fight-
ing childhood illness and

create life-long memories.
The McNeils have been
part of Starlight's commu-
nity since J.T.'s diagnosis
and regularly attend Star-
light's Great Escape events.
The Rodman Ride for
Kids brings together a gen-
erous group of people dedi-
cated to helping children in
need across New England
and raises critical funds for
Starlight's local programs
that touch the lives of more
than 100,000 children and
families in the region.

Through the Ride. Jerry
McNeil has raised close to
$5,000 for Starlight.

"The Ride is a way for
me to say thank you to Star-
light, but it's also a way to
give hope to other Starlight
families," Jerry says.

"My entire family par-
ticipates; my wife and sons
volunteer and greet me and
all the finishers at the finish
line!"

Jerry has recruited cous-
ins from Carver, secured
support from his brother and
sisters, and has invited ev-
eryone he knows to support
Starlight by making a dona-
tion through his personal
fundraising page.

One day, J .T. and Nicho-
las hope to ride with their
dad, even if it is just the last
mile or two. Until that is
possible, the boys will cheer
their dad on, as he cycles for
Starlight New England.

This is Starlight's 6th

CHECKING OUT CURVES AT THE POOL

As children flcKk to beaches,

lakes, and potils this summer,

parents should take the opportunity

to check their backs for abnormal

curvature of the spine. Scoliosis is

a lateral and rotational curvature

of the spme that occurs in the mid-

and/or lower-back. The curvature

may begin to form as early as

age three, but some cases of

juvenile scoliosis do not become

noticeable until the child reaches

adolescence. The most common

form is adolescent scoliosis , which

is severe far more frequently in

teenage girls than boys. Parents

can also check footprints in the

sand and at poolside for signs of

flat feet. Tilted postures may also

be more noticeable when children

(and adults) have their swimwear

on.

Chiropractic care for
children offers your family a
scJid foundation for wellness.

Throughout pregnancy, birth,
and childhood, the chiropractic
lifestyle offers choices and
benefits for your greater health and
well-being. If you're interested in
safe conservative care for yourself
and your loved ones, schedule
an appointment with a doctor of
chiropractic. Give the FAMILY

an appointment. We have the
experience and expertise to give
you the care you need. Let us

time of the year

GETTING YOUR TEETH INTO SHAPE

It only takes an irregularity or providing you with the per-

defect as seemingly slight as a
small chip or worn edge on a
fronttooth to significantly detract
from a smile. Fortunately the
dentist may be able to restore
the smile to its former beauty
through tooth contouring and
reshaping. This cosmetic pro-
cedure involves changing the
size or shape of the in-egular
tooth, thereby restoring it to its
fonner appearance. The proce-
dure typically entails one office

sonalized, gentle care that
you desen/e. We believe ev-
ery patient should always be
fully in charge of his or her
own dental health, and we are
here to help. Our commitment
includes providing information
that helps you to make more
informed decisions about your
oral health needs. Your dental
health is our number one prior-
ity. Please call 617-479-6220
to schedule an appointment for

visit, during which the dentist gentle dental care. We're lo-
uses various tools to carefully cated at 44 Greenleaf Street,

polish small areas of the sur-
face enamel. Then, the edges
of the newly reshaped tooth are
smoothed. After contouring, the
treated tooth fits in better with
adjacent teeth in temis of both
shape and size.

When you visit with us your

smile is our top priority. Our

ing new patients. We offer the

As teens head back to
school, many of them will
have to face their peers whi-
le suffering from an acne
breakout.

Acne affects almost eve-
ryone at some point in their
lives, and teenagers can ex-
pect to experience at least
one agonizing acne epi-
sode. The hardest hit are te-
enage boys. The good news
is that acne is not caused by
eating chocolate or French
fries. The bad news is that
acne is typically caused
by hormone fluctuations,
which is something teens
can't control.

South Shore Skin Center
offers these tips to help teens
ward off acne flare-ups:

• Wash (don't scrub) your
face twice a day with a very
gentle soap or water based
skin cleanser. Oil and dead
skin cells are typically the
cause of pimples, so avoid
any cleansers that contain
oil such as cold creams.

• Never squeeze your
pimples as it can cause an
infection, worse acne and
potentially scar your skin.

• Try using an over-the-
counter product that is de-
signed to unclog pores and
dry up oil and blemishes
(such as Clearasil or Stri-
Dex). Be sure to follow the
package instructions. Too
frequent use of these over
the counter medications
may actually cause acne to
become worse.

• Try not to touch your
face. Although you can't see
it, your hands contain oil
which is transferred when
you touch your face and can
cause a break-out.

• Your hair is another
culprit that can transfer oil
to your face. Find a hairsty-
le that keeps hair away from
your face and do not use a
lot of hair gel or other hair
products because they tend
to contain oil.

• Sunlight can actually
aggravate acne. Try to limit
your sun exposure. If you
are going to be in the sun, be
sure to wear (oil-free) sun-

screen.

"Acne is caused by
overproduction of sebum
(oil), which is regulated by
hormones, coupled with
the obstruction of the po-
res. People can get acne at
any age, but teens are most
likely to experience it be-
cause it is triggered by hor-
mone changes. Stress and
some prescribed medica-
tions can contribute to hor-
mone fluctuation. Acne is
not caused by foods such as
chocolate and greasy French
fries. In fact, severe acne is
hereditary." explained Dr.
Ramzi Saad, dermatologist
at South Shore Skin Center.
While most acne suf-
ferers' breakouts are not
serious and do not result in
scarring, at least 40 percent
of all cases need to be trea-
ted by a physician.

For severe acne (up to a
hundred or so pimples cove-
ring face and body) that may
potentially result in scarring,
South Shore Skin Center
offers several types of tre-
atments including: Gentle
YAG. which is a gentle, safe
and effective type of laser
treatment; Photodynamic
Therapy which uses a light
source in conjunction with
chemical therapy; and Ther-
mage, which is a minimally
invasive procedure that uses
radio frequency.

South Shore Skin Center
also offers several treatments
to erase acne scarring.

Dr. Saad continued,
"Most cases of teen acne are
not severe and can be trea-
ted at home. For severe acne
and scarring, medical tre-
atment is advisable and we
offer several innovative th-
erapies to heal and improve
the skin."

A Thought
fOR Th£ iVieff

A tradition Ls defined as an unwrit-
ten belief, law or custom. Generally a
tradition is an expression or means of
implementing a principle or belief, but
as time passes frequently the principle
is forgotten. Being the creatures of habit
that we are, we continue a tradition be-
cause others before as did it that way . But ,
if tradition has replaced or smothered
principle, it is time for change. . . There is a story told about a
young couple preparing their first Ham dinner. In preparing
it the young wife asked her husband to "cut the end off the
ham." When asked "why?" she said, "Mother always did it
that way." Mother was called and asked why she always did
this. Her answer was, "Because Grandma always did it that
way." Grandma was then called and asked why. . . Her answer
was, "Because the pot was not big enough!"

As we see if this illustration, oft times a practice is continued
and the reason forgotten. Grandma followed a principle; oth-
ers just followed Grandma. Granted, it is not wrong to follow.
T^ditions are not in themselves wrong. But if our actions are
not based on principle, if we follow blindly, if we do not seek
after knowledge, we can come to a place of confiisron or defeat

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Despite your Aries penchant
for wanting to tackle a problem
head-on, you might want to take a
little more hme to see how a cur-
rent situation develops. It could
surprise you.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Taking on the role of peacemaker
in a disruptive environment is a
challenge. But you can do it. Just
continue to have the same faith in
yourself that so many others have
in you.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Although your work schedule
keeps you busy, you should make
time to start preparing for that
important upcoming family event
you'll want to celebrate in a spe-
cial way.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Home is where the Moon Child
wants to be eariy in the week. But
by week's end, a chance to travel
raises her or his excitement level,
and that of the lucky person who
gets to go along.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Be
careful not to be a copycat when
dealing with someone who uses
unfair or even unkind methods
to reach a goal. As always, do
the right thing the right way, and
you'll win in the end.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) An offer could have many
good things attached to it that are
not apparent at first glance, in-
cluding a chance to move into an-
other career area. You might want
to check out its possibilities.

LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) With responsibilities surging
both in the workplace and in the
home, it's important to prioritize

how you deal with them. Be pa-
rient. Pressures will begin to ease
starting eariy next week.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) A positive reaction to
a suggestion could indicate that
you're on track for getting your
message to the right people. De-
vote the weekend to catching up
with the special people in your
life.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 2 1 ) A new attitude
from those in charge could make
things difficult for you unless you
can accept the changes without
feeling as if you're being pres-
sured into doing so.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) Family matters once
again dominate much of the week.
But don't neglect your workplace
duties while you deal with them.
An offer to help could come from
a surprising source.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A difficult work-
place simation begins to ease, but
there are still matters that need
to be dealt with before it's fully
resolved. There's also a more
posifive turn in domestic rela-
tionships

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Don't let yourself be rushed
into making a decision about an
intriguing financial arrangement.
Asking quesfions and checking
it out now could pay off in a big
way later on.

BORN THIS WEEK: You might
have a tendency to be more than
a bit judgmental, but others un-
derstand it comes from a warm,
loving heart.

Spillane Law Offices
Win Contested Will

A will contest involving
an estate worth approxi-
mately $600,000 ended in
victory recently for South
Shore law firm Spillane Law
Offices.

The last will of John
L. Sullivan was contested
by his estranged adopted
daughter Valerie Sullivan
Inconiglios, represented by
Boston law firm Bums &
Le Vinson, LLP.

Attorney Robert J.
O' Regan from Bums &
Levinson presented an out-
dated, hand-canceled, pho-
tocopied will naming Ms.
Sullivan Inconiglios the
altemate beneficiary of Sul-
livan's entire estate after his
predeceasing wife.

Attomeys Kathleen L.
Kane and Katsri MacDon-
ald-Bouseleh of Spillane
Law Offices represented
Susan Paine, tlie nominated
executrix of the estate and a
long-standing friend of John
Sullivan and his deceased
wife.

Mr. Sullivan and his at-
torney had drafted four
separate wills between 2002
and 2004, each revoking
all previous wills and nam-
ing three family friends as
the intended beneficiaries.
The 1995 photocopied will
presented by O' Regan on
behalf of Ms. Sullivan In-
coniglios predated these
four and bore the handwrit-
ten words "not valid copy"
in blue ink across the front
page.

Over six trial days span-
ning from September 2008
to June 2009 in the Norfolk
County Probate and Family

Court, O' Regan presented
theories that Mr. Sullivan
did not possess full mental
capacity when the four wills
were created, and that he
was unduly influenced by
his wife of 47 years.

These theories were
strongly refuted by close
friends of Mr. Sullivan and
his wife as well as by wit-
nesses and notaries public
present at the execution of

of Spillane's expert witness.
Dr. Barry H. Roth, M.D., a
clinical instructor in psy-
chiatry at Harvard Medical
School, supported Mr. Sul-
livan's medical records and
the case of Susan Paine. Dr.
Roth's report stated there
was a "medical certainty"
that Mr. Sullivan was of
sound mind when he execut-
ed the wills and that there is
no evidence of undue influ-
ence.

A judgment was reached

bate and Family Court ear-
lier this month in favor of
Susan Paine and the three
rightful beneficiaries of Mr.
Sullivan's estate.

nificant victory for Spillane

million settlement of a per-
sonal injury case in 2007, a
forged will case Kane won
at trial eariier this year, and
a second will contest re-
cently settled in excess of
$80,000.

Honest Leadership

While there are those engaging in dishonest

and negative attacks, Mayor Koch is busy

getting the job done for the City we love.

In Mayor Koch's first 18 months in office, he:

• Uncovered millions of dollars in hidden deficits and unpaid bills that state
regulators and independent auditors said threatened Quincy's future, and he
spoke honestly to residents about what it would take to restore fiscal responsibility
to City Hall.

«

Protected public safety and education amid a serious economic crisis.

Cut spending by $4.4 million in this year's budget and will not raise property taxes.

Negotiated a new health care deal that will save $10 million in the first year alone.

Repaired broken relationships with state officials, leading to $1 million in cost cuts
to the new Quincy High School project.

Negotiated a wage deferral with employees, saving jobs and millions of dollars.

Brought Quincy, Weymouth and Braintree together for a first-of-its-kind trash
contract that is saving us millions.

Ended the turmoil in the Quincy Police Department and put the focus where it
belongs: Fighting crime and the City's drug problem.

Created a vision to redevelop Quincy Center and is making it happen, which will
lead to the largest private investment in our City's history.

"We have accomplished much in our first

"That was something that
Sen. Kennedy fought for,"
said Yazwinski, "more re-

According to Yazwinski,
his agency will work with
South Shore veterans in
need of jobs or retraining.

"We're getting the re-
sources from the Depart-
ment of Labor," Yazwinski
said, noting that eligible vet-

erans will be able to access
job search networks and re-

"We know that with the
economy, a lot of people
have had jobs and been
laid off," said Yazwinski
who noted that some may

be directed to certification

such as Quincy College or

Quincy Taxpayers To Save Most On Health Care Deal

r**<» I OiMTMn

Oiamon(i>...WMcltM...JMMiry

The agreement between
Mayor Thomas Koch and
city workers to join the
state-run health insurance
program will save Quincy
taxpayers more money on
health care costs than any
other community in the
state, according to a recent
state report.

A report issued by Gov.
Deval Patrick this month
showed that Quincy will
save $10 million in health
insurance costs this year,
more than three times more
than any of the 17 cities and
towns that joined the state-

run Group Insurance Com-
mission this year.

Koch and city work-
ers negotiated the deal last
year after more than 20 bar-
gaining sessions, which the
mayor said, "shows what
can happen when doors are
kept open and everyone has
aseat at the table."

"This is $10 million that
will keep teachers in our
classrooms, police on the
street and firefighters on the
job during these historically
challenging times," Koch
said. "We still have plenty
of work to do to get through

this economic crisis, but I
will always be confident in
our city's future when ev-
eryone is willing to work
together to meet our chal-
lenges."

The Patrick Administra-
tion's report showed that the
City of Pittsfield will save
the second-most money on
health care costs with $2.6
million; Watertown will
save $2.6 million; and the
town of Norwood will save
$1.5 million.

In addition to the 17 com-
munities that have joined
the GIC, six school districts

and three regional planning
councils have joined the
program since a 2007 law
allowed local governments
to negotiate with employees
tojointheGIC.

Koch began negotiations
in Quincy shortly after tak-
ing office last year.

The agreement affects
about 2,500 active em-
ployees and 2,500 retirees.
Teachers, retirees, firefight-
ers, city hall employees and
a number of smaller unions
all voted in support of the
agreement after talks with
Koch.

Charter School Applicants To Seek Local Members

No Quincy residents cur-
rently serve as board mem-
bers for a proposed Asian
American charter school,
the Hani in International
Academy, but that may
change soon, according to
David Chin, spokesman for
the board.

Chin is the chairman of
the eight-member board
which has developed a pro-
posal for an Asian American
charter school in Quincy.

The proposal is currently
being reviewed at the state
level where the concept
must be approved as well as
the funding.

Under the proposal, the
school would open in 2010
with an initial enrollment

of 88 students, 44 of Asian
background and 44 non-
Asian and combine Eastern
and Western educational
techniques.

Chin said Tuesday that
the current board members
offer their expertise in edu-
cation and technical fields.
"They tend to be
ists,"

However. Chin said that
the board will soon begin
recruiting Quincy residents
as board members. "Now
it's all about community
outreach."

Chin, a Stoughton resi-
dent, said he is already
familiar with Quincy and
Quincy schools where he
taught high school physics

and earth science for three
\ears. He graduated from
Bridgewater State College

Chin said that another
board member. Vincent
Fung, is a property owner
in Quincy. Fung graduated
from the University of Wis-
consin and earned a mas-
special- ter"s degree from Columbia

Remembering Ted Kennedy: A Special News Maker

The passing of Sen. Ted Kennedy cer-
tainly marks the end of an era in Mas-
sachusetts and national politics.

But for this weekly newspaper, Ken-
nedy's death Aug. 25 after a courageous
battle with brain cancer closes a different
kind of chapter.

He was, in my estima-
tion, the last major pub-
lic servant - considered
by some the greatest
U.S. senator ever - who
made news at our office
the old-fashioned way:
by sitting down and talk- TED KENNEDY
ing face-to-face about
the issues of the day.

"Where do you want me to sit? Okay,
what do you have for questions?"

That was Ted Kennedy. The news mak-
er.

Since the Sun's inception in 1968,
many political luminaries have visited
the newsroom. Former Alabama Gov. and
four-time Presidential candidate George
Wallace, former Congressman and 1976
Presidential candidate Mo Udall and Ro-
salynn Carter before she became First
Lady to name a few.

But with the advent of the internet,
cable news and other electronic news
dissemination, the sit-down, one-on-one
newspaper interview with political big-
wigs is becoming an endangered species.

And for a small weekly, finding fresh
stories can be challenging.

But not when the state's senior U.S.
senator came to town. Throughout his ca-
reer in public service, he made numerous
stops at The Quincy Sun's office.

Kennedy - the erstwhile patriarch of
America's most prestigious political fam-
ily, former Presidential candidate and
arguably the most effective legislator in
U.S. history - consistently made himself
available to be interviewed one-on-one or
with the Sun editorial staff whenever he
came to Quincy.

He was called a champion of "the little
guy" and local newspapers like this one
understood that sentiment. With three
major daily newspapers casting major
shadows in Quincy, the city's weekly pa-
per could always count on Ted giving us
some of his undivided attention to gener-
ate some news for our loyal readers.

From a news perspective, we looked
forward to Kennedy visiting the office
whenever his staff called ahead to arrange
an interview. His presence brought some
excitement to the Sun. And one year, he
also brought the Secret Service with him
who checked the phone lines before he
entered the building.

One thing that did ring true after a few
minutes with Kennedy was his sincerity.
He didn't brush off any questions. He
chose his words carefully but he always
seemed to speak from his heart.

He never came across as self-serving.
He seldom, if ever, seemed interested in
making his own headlines.

Instead, he served us - the community
paper. He wanted to give us the chance to
give our readers a national perspective on
local matters as well as other interesting
issues of the day.

I remember the first time I interviewed
Kennedy. It was September of 1987. At
the time. The Sun also had a local news
channel on Quincy cable and we would do
a taping for cable and take the notes and

Other Photos,
Coverage Pages 16-18

also do a story for the paper.

One afternoon a Kennedy aide called
my father to let him know the senator
would like to stop in the next day.

Henry got off the phone and clapped
his hands once. A boost of adrenaline, he
knew a fresh story was about to unfold.

"Okay, Ted Kennedy's coming in to-
morrow," he said walking through the
newsroom.

My ears perked up. Would I get the in-
terview, I thought?

"Bobby, come in here," Henry said as I
followed him into his office.

"You and Jane can interview Ted," he
said. Jane was Jane Arena, one of our
reporters. He figured we could share the
interview and ask him about 9 or 10 ques-
tions.

"Okay, sounds good to me," I told
him.

In the morning, before Kennedy ar-
rived, Henry asked me what kind of ques-
tions I had come up with. I mentioned the
MWRA, the shipyard, the local economy.

Henry nods and then says to me, "Okay,
but ask him if he's going to be a candidate
for President again."

It was a question Henry liked to ask
whenever Kennedy came to town after his
unsuccessful bid for the White House in
1980.

That year, just a few months after end-
ing his pursuit of the Democratic presi-
dential nomination at the party's national
convention in August and endorsing Presi-
dent Jimmy Carter's re-election bid, Ken-
nedy stopped at The Sun. In an interview
with Tom Henshaw, Kennedy was asked
if he would be a presidential candidate in
1984.

"I'm j ust looking forward to 1 980 now,"
the senator said. "I'm taking it one step at
a time. I'm looking forward to working in
the Senate and I'll let the future take care
of itself."

So, seven years later, it was my turn to
ask Kennedy the same question. And he
essentially said the same thing. He would
not be running for president and he could
better serve the people of Massachusetts
as their senior senator.

I'm not sure why my father insisted I
ask that question. Perhaps Henry thought
Kennedy would at least leave the door
open to any future presidential aspirations.
Or even come right out and say "yes, I am
seriously thinking about it."

But we now know that story never
played out.

Instead, Sen. Kennedy would return to
Quincy as a staunch advocate for so many
causes. The shipyard, health care, the min-
imum wage, jobs. Always willing to lend
his support to those things that mattered
most to him - and his fellow citizens.

Before Sen. Kennedy left the Sun of-
fice following that 1987 interview, Henry
invited Ted into his office. Behind his
desk on the wall is a framed photo of
President John F. Kennedy that I had pur-
chased for my father as a birthday present.
The oversized photo bears this quote: "We
have come too far, we have sacrificed too
much, to disdain the future now."

Kennedy glanced at it, read the quote,
and smiled. "That was Jack," he nodded.

But for thousands of mourners who

We deeply appreciate the time he

And we'll never forget that chapter of

Q

IF YOU'RE A MOVIE BUFF you may
want to circle Nov. 6 ~ that's the sched-
uled release date for The Box, a horror
film that features scenes shot in Quincy
nearly two years ago.

The film, originally scheduled for re-
lease Oct. 30, is now set to hit the silver
screen Nov 6.

Some scenes for the
movie, which is set in
Richmond, Virginia in
the year 1976, were ac-
tually filmed in at the
Adams Shore Supermar-
ket on Sea St., Adams
Shore, over the course of
a few days in December,
2007. Film crews made
significant changes inside the market - as
well the sign on the store's facade - to give
it a mid-70's feel.

Photos from the filming at the market
are on display inside Adams Shore Mar-
ket which is owned by Nicholas Phillips.
Some of the photos include members of

DIAZ

the Phillips family with Cameron Diaz,
who stars in the film along with James
Marsden.

Based on the 1970 short story "But-
ton, Button" by author Richard Matheson,
the film stars Cameron Diaz and James
Marsden as a financially strapped married
couple. One night, they receive a box con-
taining a button. The next moming a mys-
terious figured stranger (Frank Langella)
tells them that pushing the button on the
box will have two consequences. First,
someone in the world who they know will
die. Second, they will receive $1 million.

Over the years, Hollywood has come
to Quincy to film movie scenes. One that
comes to mind is The Departed, starring
Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack
Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen
and Alex Baldwin. One scene in that mov-
ie ~ released in 2006 — was filmed near
the former Fore River Shipyard.

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS IS A 1930's postcard view of the Dennison Air-
port that was on the corner of East Squantum Street
and Quincy Shore Drive in Atlantic. The corner is now
the site of a Dunkin' Donuts shop. Harold Dennison, a
Quincy architect and builder, built these buildings and
a few dirt runways on filled marshland leased from the
U.S. government in 1927. One of his financial partners
was Amelia Earhart who later learned to fly here. In its
heyday, the airport hosted a variety of activities includ-

ing weekly air shows, private flying clubs, and scenic
passenger flights for the public. In 1941, the govern-
ment took back the property to expand the adjacent
Squantum Naval Air Station. Housing was later built
here to serve Squantum and South Weymouth naval
personnel. Today, most of this land behind the donut
shop is home to The Moorings at Squantum Gardens, a
223-unit rental community for seniors. To contact Tom
Galvin, e-mail tmgalvin@verizon.net.

Quincy Medical Center Remembers Ted Kennedy

On behalf of Quincy
Medical Center, I offer our
deepest condolences to
the Kennedy family on the
loss of their husband, fa-
ther, grandfather, uncle and
brother. Senator Kennedy
exhibited tremendous cour-
age throughout his career,
especially during this last

year. We have been moved
and inspired by his commit-
ment to finishing the work to
which he dedicated his life.

As a safety net community

Center has always viewed
Senator Kennedy as our
hero and guiding force in

our battle to provide a high
quality and equitable health
care system to all and espe-
cially for those most in need.
He fought^so hard on be-
half of others who couldn't
— we owe him the honor
of continuing that fight and
working together in a col-

to develop a rational health

Thanks Mayor Koch For Repairing Francis Avenue

I am writing in relation to
the piece in the Sun on Aug.
26, "Phelan campaign seeks
nomination for worst streets
in Quincy."

Well, until a little over a
month ago, 1 could have sent
in a nomination. During all
of Phelan's administration,
my neighbors and I could
get no results after calling
many times. We even sent
pictures of the broken ce-
ment sidewalks, blocks of

cement sticking up.

Many times I called Phel-
an's office and left messages
with his personnel at his of-
fice, and left my name and
phone number, as they told
me to do and never received
a call back.

A little over a month ago,
I contacted Mayor Koch on
the condition of our side-
walks, never expecting any
response and to my surprise,
he appeared at my front
door. I never met or knew

Mayor Koch before this.

He didn't talk down to
me, as many do today, he
listened. He saw conditions
and said he would have the
engineering department look
into it. Well, to my surprise,
not only were the sidewalks
fixed, the whole street was
reconstructed including new
water mains. Everything
new.

What a wonderful sur-

prise and this was not in
the plans anywhere in the
future.

So you see. 1 can't nomi-
nate my street for the worst ;
maybe I could nominate it
for the best. It was a plea-
sure to meet such a wonder-
ful mayor and person.

Thank you. Mayor Koch.

Thomas Berry

Francis Ave

Quincy

An Amazing Coincidence

What an amazing coin-
cidence that former mayor
Phelan's campaign would be
compiling a "top-ten lest" of
Quincy streets in dire need
of repair and planning to use
that against Mayor Koch.

After begging Bill Phel-
an to do something about
the horrific state of Francis
Avenue throughout his term
of office and getting no re-
sponse, one of my neighbors
wrote to our present mayor
this summer for help.

Mayor Koch walked over

from City Hall at nine in the
morning to speak to him and
promise something would
be done immediately. And
it was!

Most politicians talk and
nod and profess their inter-
est and do nothing.

If anyone needs a "con-
crete" example of how well
Mayor Koch keeps prom-
ises, just drive down our
brand new street someday.

Readers Forum

Hanlin International Academy:
^Bridging The Greatness Of Quincy'

(A copy of the following
letter was submitted to The
Quincy Sun for publica-
tion.)

Dear Friends,
It is with tremendous
shock and dismay that we
inform you of (and/ or re-
spond to) an allegation that
our former pastor. Rev.
Frederick L. Ban. Jr.. sexu-
ally abused a mmor about
twenty years ago. it is un-
clear as to where Fr. Ban-
was stationed at the exact
time of the alleged conduct,
however. The Patnot Ledger
reports that Fr. Barr was a
parochial vicar of Our Lady
of Good Counsel Church on
Sea Street in the 1980s, and
that he left Quincy in 1985
for an assignment at St.
Luke Parish in Belmont.

As a result of the allega-
tion, Fr. Barr has been placed
on administrative leave from

his current assignment as
pastor of St. Patrick Parish
in Watertown. Police have
been notified of the allega-
tion and an investigation is
underway.

We do not have any
other information about the
allegation other than what
has been reported through
the local media. As of the
time this letter was written,
there was no information
on the Archdiocese of Bos-
ton's website or The Pilot's
website with respect to the
allegation. The Patriot Led-
ger, however, has obtained a
press release from the Arch-
diocesan public affairs of-
fice which reads, in part:

"The decision to place Fr.
Barr on administrative leave
represents the Archdiocese's
commitment to the safety of
all parties and does not rep-
resent a determination of Fr.

Barr's guilt or innocence as
it pertains to this allegation.
The Archdiocese will work
to resolve this case as expe-
ditiously as possible and in
a manner that is fair to all
parties."

We have no further com-
ment regarding this allega-
tion except to say that given
the timeframe in question,
we have no reason to be-
lieve that any such alleged
conduct on the "{)art of Fr.
Fred was committed during
his assignment at our be-
loved Mary, Star of the Sea
Parish. We will, of course,
keep you updated of any
further information we be-
come aware of, and we pray
for a fair and just resolution
tb this matter.

God bless,

Sean Glennon

The initial negative re-
action by a few to Hanlin

ethnically segregationist
and separafist was expected.

Why Quincy?

The City of Quincy has so
many wonderful American,
Western, and Eastern his-
torical and cultural resourc-
es. This makes Quincy an
ideal location for this kind
of school- an institution that

our positions by explaining can be the perfect cultural

Stricter Enforcement Of Residency
Requirements For Quincy Schools

The school year is about
to start. The school budget
for Fiscal 20 1 0 has been bal-
anced after being presented
to the School Committee
with a $1.8 million deficit,
by increasing fees and cut-
ting services to the families
of Quincy students and by
laying off 40 people.

Looking ahead, we are
still facing challenging fis-
cal times. State Revenue is
not likely to increase; Lo-
cal Aid could be cut again.
Many city employees have
accepted a wage freeze for
this fiscal year, real estate
taxes are close to the levy
limit.

Given the situation and
what has been asked of both
the city workers and the
taxpayers, it is important
that we do all that we can to

control cost so that we can
continue to provide the best
services and education for
our students.

We need to vigorously
enforce the residency re-
quirements for our schools.

I suggest having one of
the School Department's
Attendance Officer moni-
tor the North Quincy T sta-
tion during the first week
of school to see who comes
off the south bound trains.
Now is not the time to sub-
sidize other cities and towns
by allowing non-Quincy
residents to attend Quincy
Public Schools.

We need to let the pub-
lic know that we are seri-
ous about our enforcement
of residency requirements
to attend Quincy Public
Schools.

Will this prevent and stop
every non-resident from at-
tending Quincy Public
Schools? No.

Will this solve all of our
fiscal problems? Absolutely
not.

It will send a message,
it will make things a little
more difficult, and it will
prevent some non-residents
from attending.

1 have a feeling that the
money that we will save by
strictly enforcing the resi-
dency requirement will be
needed before the end of
this fiscal year. We owe this
our students, taxpayers and
city employees.

and respect the contribu-
tions of past immigrants just
as much as the older immi-
grant groups have to under-
stand from where these new
immigrants are coming. We
fully expect to implement
a formalized local Quincy
history curriculum to pro-
vide this vital insight to the
new Americans the school
will educate.

What is Hanlin?
Similar in cultural signif-
icance to Plato's Academy,
which also was in operation
for about a thousand years,
Hanlin Academy was the
most distinguished Classi-
cal Far Eastern scholariy
institution that was founded
in the 8th Century China
during the Tang Dynasty.
The Academy lasted until
1911. The name was cho-
sen for several reasons. The
Founding Group wanted
the local, state, national,
and international communi-
ties to acknowledge and be
conscious of the Far Eastern
contribution that this char-
ter school wishes to give
in terms of American edu-
cation. Secondly, charter
schools that seek to serve
ELL populations have a dif-
ficult time reaching out to
such populations. Since an
overwhelming majority of
Quincy's ELL students are
of Chinese descent, we need
a powerful name to attract
these students and families.
In this sense, the name was
chosen for demographic rea-
sons. Explaining the name
to non-Chinese is a simple
chore.

We look forward to con-
tinuing this important con-
versation with the Quincy
community as we seek to
host town hall meetings in
the near future.

We will keep you posted.

Robotics Firm Set To Open Plant At Shipyard

Cont 'd From Page I

Thomas Koch announced
that Bluefin Robotics plans
to locate in Quincy.

Bluefin 21 is the smallest
of the AUV's manufactured
by tHe company while the
largest model is about 20
feet. All are about 20 inches
in diameter.

"We're producing about
1 ,000 a year," said David
Kelly. Bluefin's president
and CEO. "We expect those
counts to go up. We run
them in every ocean in the
world."

AUV's are used in port
and harbor security, mine
counter-measurers, oceano-
graphic survey, environ-
mental monitoring, archeol-
ogy and scientific research,
according to Kelly.

"We anticipate bringing
90 jobs to the community,
and expect our growth to
mclude more Quincy resi-
dents," said Kelly before
noting "The work we will
do here, in Quincy, will con-
tribute to maritime efforts

on a global basis."

As an example, the Blue-
fin 21 has enough capacity
to collect data for 40 hours,
surfacing occasionally to
orient itself by GPS and to
send collected data.

Some 50 observers ap-
plauded as Koch and Ward 2
Councillor Daniel Raymon-
di welcomed Bluefin Robot-
ics to Fore River Shipyard.
Both called the underused
shipyard, "Quincy's last
frontier."

Koch and Raymondi ,
also, congratulated Cash-
man for attracting the Blue-
fin company to Quincy and
cited his continued consis-
tent work on behalf of the
city.

fhe lease agreement is
contingent on City Council
approval of a TIF or Tax In-
crement Financing, a public
financing method used for
redevelopment and commu-
nity improvement projects.

Raymondi said he will
introduce the TIF agreement
at Tuesday City Council

meeting.

"Jay Cashman's com-
mitment to Qumcy over the
years has never wavered
and his work to create new,
exciting opportunities at the
shipyard durmg these his-
torically challenging times
is a testament to that com-
mitment." said Koch.

Bluefin'sXelly expects to
open the facility next Octo-
ber and unify the company's
engineering, manufacturing
and marine operations in
a 53,000 sq. ft building off
South Street leased from
Cashman's company

The company's neighbor
may be the New England
Aquarium, which is plan-
ning a holding facility at the
site. The Aquarium is await-
ing permit approvals at this
time.

"We need to expand our
tax base," said Koch who
estimated that the Bluefin
Robotics could bring a total
of 135 job to Quincy at its
peak.

City May Appeal Arbitrator's Order

Cont 'd From Page 3
Jan. 3, 2008.

Immediately follow-
ing the promotions. Act-
ing Commissioner Michael
Coffey received grievances
filed by several members of
Local 1 1 39 of the Laborers'
Union challenging the pro-
motions.

"We inherited an ap-
peal (by the union) of the
appointments of these two
individuals," City Solicitor
James Timmins said this
week, referring to the griev-
ances.

In late January, Coffey
held hearings on the griev-
ances and rescinded both

promotions in early Febru-
ary which the employees
challenged.

Koch referred all ques-
tions regarding the issue to
the city's legal staff.

After hearing of the ar-
bitration decision favoring

the employees, Phelan was
asked for a comment.

"I am happy for the
workers and their families.
It's unfortunate they had to
wait to receive what they
worked for and deserved,"
Phelan said.

Plans To Close Quincy Mental
Health Center Concerns Legislators

North Quincy Man Pleads Innocent

Cont 'd From Pa^c I

the proposed closure, the
legislators said.

The delegation was
briefed on the significant
fiscal challenges DMH is
facing this year: an immedi-
ate structural deficit of $13
million; a signficant reduc-
tion to community services
after the FY09 9C reduc-
tions; and an estimated 200
of 788 adults in DMH inpa-
tient units who are ready to
discharge without available
community placement op-
portunities.

The Inpatient Study
Commission Report, which
was presented to DMH on
June 30, recommended the
conversion of the 16-bed
inpatient unit at Quincy

Mental Health Center to
community placement op-
portunities. This will affect
patients who no longer need
inpatient level of care and
will increase opportunities
for them to live indepen-
dently in the community.

Experienced local staff
will oversee the discharge
of patients from Quincy
Mental Health Center. As
each patient prepares for
discharge, there will be a
careful planning process in-
volving DMH staff working
with individuals, families,
and community service pro-
viders to ensure successful
transition from the hospital
to the community. The team
will work with each pa-
tient to ensure that services

family preferences.

Future patients who
would otherwise have been
admitted to Quincy Mental
Health Center and Westbor-
ough State Hospital (which
is undergoing accelerated
closure based on the Inpa-
tient Study Commission
Report's recommendation)
will be either referred to ap-
propriate community-based
mental health services or to
another Department inpa-
tient facility.

"We continue to express
strong concerns over the
availability of alternate ser-
vices," Morrissey said. "We
have urged the Commission-
er to meet with the board
of directors of the Quincy
Mental Health Center, the
families, and the patients
to discuss the possibility of
other alternatives to meet
the needs of those the facil-
ity serves."

Rep. Mariano said he is
hopeful the dire fiscal situ-
ation facing DMH can be
resolved with the best in-
terests of the mental health
community in mind.

"The conversion of Quin-
cy Mental Health Center is a
loss to the community, but
we are confident that every-
thing possible is being done
in order to ensure individu-
als with serious mental ill-
ness in the region are well
served despite the economic
restraints," Mariano added.

gree murder charges in the
death of a 33-year-old Wol-
laston mother found dead on
Sunday.

Beatty, a Safford Street
resident, was arraigned in
Quincy District Court and
remanded without bail to

Granite City Self Storage:
25 Years of Service Excellence

Granite City Self Stor-
age, with two facilities in the
Wollaston section of Quincy,
is a family owned and oper-
ated self-storage business
with more than twenty-five
years in providing service
excellence to a wide array of
customers. Owners Don and
Paula McNally started the
business w hen the self- storage
industry was nearly unknown
in the northeast. Since its in-
ception in 1983. Granite City
has grown to include three
storage facilities with more
than 1,500 storage units. In
April of this year, a state of
the art building was opened
adding 30,000 square feet to
the existing facility at the 95
Old Colony Avenue location.

which is complemented, by a
second self-storage facility at
148 Old Colony Avenue.

Storage units range in
size from a small closet to
a garage. The need for self-
storage space is as varied as
the customers who use them.
In addition to serving the stor
age needs of business. Granite
City found a niche market in
serving condo and apartment
dwellers with a need for stor-
age space. The "extra closet"
concept for storing seasonal

Phelan Says Facts Refute Koch*s Political Attacks

legniding th? high school
"M»tyoi Koch claims that
Hill Phelan caused the city to
pay $46 inillltin more for the
high sihool," Dwyer said "I
was involved with (his proj
eel trout Ihrs veiy heginnliig,
and Koch's claim that Hilt
I'lic^lait was In any way r«
NpoitNlhle for any increase in
costs is simply untrue,"

The I'helan latnpaign
aUu pointttd to what a local
environmentalist had to lay
about the high school proj
ect

"People nerd to remein
her thai Tom Koch wns h k^y
playoi and wpiit along with
an ailminlsltatlon that would
havr put tho high school on

lai t)iiviiotuupiilnllsi PJ
holey ••Whiltf lorn KiK'h

insiders, Hill l*h(ilan had lht»
courage to stand up and pro

way, W(i'd be In the same t\K
as New Bedford, wherii par
ems are asking why no one
sto|)ped thdir schoiil ttoin
being huilt on a toxic waste
site"

The Phelan campaign
noted It would provide
sources to all of the claims
above m its website, tan
payersforphelan A-(»m, and
it wcnild continue to call
out (he Koch's campaign's
"desperate disiorttoni"

"The facts and ttu^ truth
are (m our side," Ward said.
"We welcome the chance
to compare Hill's outstand
ing record of standing up
for taxpayers while Tom
Koch's recoid of leikless
spending and enormous tax
imi eases "

Facts tmcked up by Hide
pendent sources including
Wall Street Htuiding ugen
cies, the state's Depart-
nient of Revenue, and loctd
elected officials pmve that
Mayor lorn Koch's itttest
campaign hiochure attack
ing Hill Phelan "is hlled
with diktonions, misrep-
resentations, and outright
falsehoods," Phelan Cam-
paign Manager Michael
Ward said in a statement
released Tuesday,

"In a desperate politi
cal attempt to blame for
mer Mayiir Phelan for Ibm
Koch's record biettking tax
incic«ase, the Koch cum
paign's attack mailing al
legeii that Phdau left the city
with enormous dcbln and a
tisctti mes!)," Wurd said.

"Hut factuttldala from all
independent stances proves
the opposite: that Phelan's
skilled fiscal stewardship
strengthened Quincy 's fi
nancial situation, improved
its bond rating, and kept
Quincy tax increases the
lowest of any in the state "

Ward said "Quincy vot-
ers don't have to believe
our campaign or the Koch
campaign on these issues,
l-ook at the frffcts from In
dependent suurcei, such as
hard nosed Wall Street bond
salesman who don't care
a hg about Hill Phelaii or
Tom Koch, They only care
about the fiscal strength of a
city based on the facts, and
those facts led them lo im-

prove Quincy 's l)ond lating
twice while Hill Phelan was
mayor.

"If Tom Koch were tell-
ing the truth and Hill Phelan
made a mess of Quincy 's
finances, why would tw(»
Wall Street bonding agen
cies have twice Improved
Quincy 's bond rating," to
AV?" Ward asked,

Robert Haley, a founder
of the Quincy Taxpayer's
AsscK^iatum, verified that
Phelan 'i solid fiscal per-
formance as mayor Is also
evidenced by years of in
dependent reports issued by
the state agency responsible
for overseeing ihe finances
of cities and towns

"When Hill Phelan look
office , he inherited a record
deficit and a fiscal mess so
bad Ihe state's Department
of Revenue (DOR) refused
to certify Quincy's tax rate,"
Haley explained "Over Hill
Phelan's six years as mayor,
DOR reports verify that he
turned the city's finances
around and left the incoming
Mayor Koch with more than
$ 1 S million in two accounts;
$5.7 million in fVee caah,
and another $10 million in
the stabilization fund,"

Ward pointed out that the
$l5-f million surplus can be
seen on the Massachusetts
Department of Revenue's
website, "and even Koch's
own mailer acknowledges
that the money was there,"

"The state DOR data
also verifies that despite

increase (axes more than
any mayor In Quincy's his
tory, increasing taxes nearly
twice as nuich in one year as
Phelan did in six years, and
Increased taxes more than
any city in the state," Ward
said.

"And while every city In

Ing to make up wttys to try

mess Tom Koch ciettted,"
Ward said "Hut facts are
stubborn things, as ,lohn Ad
ams said, and Quincy voters
deserve the truth."

The statement released
by the Phelan Campaign
also stated Koch's other po
Utlcal attacks on Phelan's
handling of school projects
were also deemed false by
elected School Committee
members and a local envl
ronmentalist familiar with
the iiiues,

"Mayor Koch claims

deadline and cost the city a

School C(»mmlUee memlier
Dave McCaithy. "that is
completely untrue, tie did

A Job Well Done

On Monday, Aug. 24, at approximately 1 a.m.. Of-
ficers John McGovem and A. J. Carthas were dispatched
to Panera Bread on Hancock Street to investigate a re-
port of a "B&E in progress."

As the units responded,
QPD communications per-
sonnel questioned the caller/
employee, who stated that
the suspect, a bald male, left
the restaurant carrying a box
in the direction of Kend-
all Street.

Upon arrival. Officer
McGovem interviewed the
ovemight bakers, who stated
that they heard a loud noise in
the storage room in the rear of

the building. This room, which has an access door from
the outside, is usually locked, contains items needed
to run the restaurant, from light bulbs to cooking instru-
ments.

As Officer Carthas searched for the suspect, Officer
McGovem learned from the bakers that they were in
the back room when they heard the alarm go off for the
storage room. They went to check and observed a male
with a shaved head in the building, carrying a gym bag
and a large box on his shoulder.

Upon seeing the two employees, the suspect fled
the store across the parking lot. During the interview,
Officer Carthas notified communications that he had a
suspect stopped on Atlantic Street and he is carrying
a Black & Decker toaster in an unopened box on his
shoulder. The location of the stop is within six blocks
of Panera Bread.

When questioned about the toaster, the suspect said
he bought it from "a guy at the T," but then changed
his story to "from some guy at McDonald's." Although
the officer did not believe the suspect's story, both
the North Quincy T station and McDonald's are directly
across Hancock Street from Panera Bread, which would
place him in the area. The suspect said that he was on
the way to his "old lady's" house.

Officer Carthas contacted Officer McGovern inquir-
ing if a toaster was missing. The bakers confirmed that
this was the type of item found in the storage room, so
Officer McGovern asked Officer Carthas to bring the sus-
pect back to the restaurant. Officer Carthas pulled into
the well-lit parking lot and after a brief viewing, both
bakers stated they were 100% sure that the suspect was
the same man.

Officer Carthas placed the suspect, a 49 year old
homeless man, under arrest for "Breaking and Enter-
ing in the Night Time," a felony offense. To make mat-
ters worse for the suspect, who was caught red-handed
with a toaster blocks away from the scene of the crime,
the store manager arrived and informed the Officer that
video security footage of both the rear and interior of the
store would be available to help in the prosecution of the
suspect.

A Look Back At 1980 Interview At The Quincy Sun

Sen. Ted Kennedy: He Made News When He Came To Quincy

(Editor's Note: Sen. Ted Kenne-
dy, who was laid to rest Saturday
near his two brothers at Arlington
National Cemetery, made numer-
ous visits to The Quincy Sun dur-
ing his career in the U.S. Senate.
Reprinted below is a story written
after an interview with the Sun ed-
itorial staff in October, 1980, a few
months after the senator's unsuc-
cessful candidacy for the Demo-
cratic nomination for president.)
By TOM HENSHAW

Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, on
a pre-election visit to the South
Shore, has suggested that a reju-
venation of the General Dynam-
ics Quincy Shipyard could be just
around the comer.

"Over the next several years,"
he said, "the greatest need for our
defense is going to be conventional
force which is going to mean both
additional shipbuilding and reha-
bilitation of existing ships.

"We are working closely with
General Dynamics and with Presi-
dent Carter to ensure that the ship-
yard is going to be the vital force
that is has been and should be in
the future."

Kennedy, who ran unsuccess-
fully for the Democratic presiden-
tial nomination, spoke at a South
Shore Chamber of Commerce lun-
cheon at the Lantana in Randolph.
He also visited The Quincy Sun
office.

"My first conversation with

President Carter after the Demo-
cratic convention," he said, "we
talked about the future of the yard
itself and what it meant in the terms
of the Massachusetts economy.

"We are facing some tight times
right now but there are some really
important opportunities to be pur-
sued.

"I've been a strong supporter
of strengthening our conventional
forces although I have had some
serious questions about some areas
of the strategic force, like the B-1
bomber.

"What I think we need is the
basic elements of a strong mili-
tary force - not gold-plating the
military - one that is capable of
defending our interests around the
world and that means ships.

"We've been meeting with the
management of the yard and the
unions as well as the Navy and
President Carter to stress the im-
portance of this yard and its solid
reputation for quality."

Kennedy declined to look past
next Nov. 4 to his own plans for
1984, the next presidential year.

"I am just looking forward to
1980 now," he laid. "I'm taking
it one step at a time. I'm looking
forward to working in the Senate
and I'll let the future take care of
itself."

He predicted that President
Carter will win re-election in a
close contest.

SEN. TED KENNEDY

"The fundamental question is
whether people believe that the
election of Ronald Reagan is going
to be in the interest of the work-
ing people and their families," he
said.

Clearly, Kennedy doesn't be-
lieve it.

"Take for instance Mr. Reagan's
tax policy," he said.

"Everyone on the South Shore
making over $2(X),0(X) a year gets
a $12,000 tax credit. At $20,000 a
year you get about $200. 1 don't
think that's fair and equitable.

"I think people are going to
start thinking about the election in
economic terms."

John Anderson, the Republican
congressman who is running (for
president) as an independent, is a

factor in the election, particular!)
in Massachusetts. Kennedy said

'Polls show he's running close
to 20 percent." he said. "In a close
election one to five points is a fac-
tor.

"1 don't think he'll carry any of
the states, but he is a factor if he
gets a significant vote in a swing
state. He is doing that now."

Kennedy devoted most of his
lime at the Chamber of Commerce
luncheon to fielding questions from
the audience, composed largely of
bu.sinessmen

He told them that, contrary to
the popular view, he is not an in-
discriminate defender of the role
of big government in the economic
and social life of the country.

"Each generation." he said,
"ought to define what the appro-
priate role is and we should have
the willingness and courage to de-
fine it and get out of the areas we
shouldn't be in and get into areas
where we should be in.

"I am suggesting that there is an
appropriate role for government at
different times In the 1930s it was
appropriate to regulate airlines to
try and help them get started in an
area where we don't have much of
an industry."

Kennedy said that he got "some
satisfaction" out of passage of
legislation that deregulated air
fares. He called it "the most anti-
inflationary that passed Congress.

1 was proud to have authored the
bill.

"We have seen the application
in the last three weeks of lower
air fares between Boston and New
York and Washington and other
parts of the country" he said

"We were able to take the les-
son from airline deregulation leg-
islation and pass it over into other
areas of transportation .

"It's going to make new oppor-
tunities for small business to enter
into the trucking area. Hopefull)
this will mean lower costs to ship-
pers, and savings of about $5 bil-
lion to consumers

"Five billion dollars in that area
is 4 lOths of one percent reduction
in the infiation rate "

Kennedy said he doesn't think
It's big government or small gov-
ernment that most concerns peo-

"I think it's competent govern-
ment that basicalK people are ask-

nating waste and inefficiency and
1 yield to no one on that

"But I also think we ought to
be creative and compassionate
enough to be able to make some-
thing work without getting caught
up in sloganeering and that's been
true of both political parties.

challenges of the 1980s "

A Message From School Supt. Dr. Richard DeCristofaro

Quincy Public School Staff Eager
To Start Another Excellent Year

By DR. RICHARD
DeCRISTOFARO

Superintendent of Schools

Welcome back!

The entire staff of the
Quincy Public Schools is
excited and eager to begin
another excellent school
year!

Our Maintenance and
Custodial Teams have
worked hard during the
summer so that many im-
provements were completed
and our buildings are clean
and welcoming.

Our professional staff is
truly looking forward to the
challenges and opportuni-
ties that are ahead in the
2009-2010 school year. We
know that the key ingredi-
ents to our students' success
will always be the commu-
nication, respect, and trust
between the Quincy Public
Schools and our parents.
Parent involvement in a
child's education offers a
marked improvement in all
aspects of school life.

RICHARD DeCRISTOFARO

Our Mayor and School
Committee worked diligent-
ly in April, May and June to
do the absolute very best in
regard to sustaining the qual-
ity class size, curriculum,
materials, program staffing,
and extended opportunities,
while never ceasing to focus
on the health, safety, and se-
curity of our students.

The Quincy Public
Schools Leadership Team,
our Mayor and School
Conmiittee took budget ac-
tion in order to protect the

core curriculum and class-
room needs. More actions
were taken in order to sus-
tain our valuable classroom,
program and support staff.
Details in regard to Student
Transportation, Food Ser-
vices, Activity and Athletic
Fee information are pres-
ent on the Quincy Public
Schools website at www.
quincypublicschools.com
and Channel 22. If you have
any questions in regard to
these changes, please call
your respective school or
my office at 617-984-8700.
The American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act have
assisted our school system
during these difficult eco-
nomic times. A highly quali-
fied and specially trained
teaching staff has been hired

to enhance Special Educa-
tion Literacy, and Title 1 pro-
gram delivery. Also, through
ARRA funding, new educa-
tional technology has been
purchased that will be quite
beneficial for many students
in our school system.

As we wish good luck to
or class of 2009 graduates,
we are excited to welcome
700 new children into our
full-day Kindergarten. As
the final days of summer
break pass, please be as-
sured that our school system
remains committed to every
student and every family in
our City.

As always, it is an honor
and a privilege to serve this
historical and educationally
rich City of Quincy.

Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Tuesday the city's
Park and Recreation depart-
ments will host a "Back to
School" free movie at Ad-
ams Field in Merrymount
Park Saturday, Sept. 12 at 7
p.m.

"We have so many won-
derful traditions that bring
the community together,
hopefully this will start a
new one," said Koch.

The movie will be shown
on an inflatable screen and
the film of choice is Walt
Disney's "Angles in the
Outfield." The "PG" rated
family movie tells the story
of a young boy who hopes
for a chance to have a fam-
ily if the last-place Califor-
nia Angles win the pennant.
The approximate run time is

103 minutes.

"What better venue to
feature an outdoor film, es-
pecially a baseball film, than
Adams Field," said Kristen
M. Powers, executive direc-
tor of the Park, Forestry and
Cemetery departments. "We
strive to showcase the versa-
tility of our park system and
a family movie night at Ad-
ams is a perfect opportunity
to do just that."

Residents are encouraged
to bring blankets and chairs
for comfortable seating and
restroom facilities will be
open on site. Additionally,
refreshments will be avail-
able.

partment at 6 1 7-376- 1 25 1 .

Foreclosure, Home Buyer Assistance Information

Norfolk County Reg-
ister of Deeds William P.
O'Donnell announces an
addition to the Registry
website www.norfolkdeeds.
org providing resources
for information regarding
foreclosure counseling, in-
formation on the First Time
Homebuyer Tax Credit, first
time homebuyer program
and the downpayment assis-
tance program.

'This information can
be of great assistance to the

residents of Norfolk County
who are looking for hous-
ing assistance information,"
O'Donnell said.

The website informa-
tion compilation includes
links to internet postings by
the Federal government's
HUD and IRS departments,
the Massachusetts Attor-
ney General's Office, and
the Massachusetts Office
of Consumer Affairs. The
Norfolk website, www.nor-
folkdeeds .org, also includes

a chart of helpful informa-
tion, internet addresses and
telephone numbers specific
to each of the County's 28
municipalities.

The Norfolk County
Registry of Deeds, located
at 649 High St., Dedham, is
the principal office for real
property in Norfolk County.
The Registry is the basic re-
source for homeowners, title
examiners, mortgage lend-
ers, municipalities and oth-
ers with a need for secure,

accurate, accessible land
record information.

Hundreds of thousands
of Registry land records
back to 1793 are already
available for on-line view-
ing. The Registry's on-line
index is available from 1947
forward and continues to
expand to include earlier re-
cords.

Go Green And Save Money Using The Sun's Energy

(ARA) - Green-minded
homeowners can continue
to turn to the sky for help
in coping with rising en-
ergy costs for years to come
thanks to an extension of the
solar tax credit program by
Congress.

The legislation extends
the benefits for residential
systems under the old law
for eight years. This will en-
able consumers to recoup 30
percent of the cost of solar
thermal water heating up to
$2,000.

Jim Cika, manager of
solar products for VELUX
America, recommends that
consumers do their home-
work on the various solar
technologies available, as
well as reviewing calcula-
tions for how solar-friendly
their homes may be.

While a solar thermal
system usually costs more to
purchase and install than a
conventional water heating
system, it can save money
in the long run and is much
kinder to the planet.

Cika says that the cost

of an installed ENERGY
STAR certified system from
his company will vary de-
pending upon the volume of
heated water required in a
home. Two to three rooftop
solar collector panels will
usually be installed and so-
lar hot water holding tanks
are available in 80- and
120-gallon sizes. An aver-
age installation is projected
to cost $8,000 to $11,000,
with some complex instal-
lations running as much as
$12,000.

"On average," he says,
"if you install a solar water
heater, your water heating
bills should drop 50 to 80
percent - not an insignifi-
cant sum when you consider
that the Department of En-
ergy says that water heating
can account for 14 to 25 per-
cent of the energy consumed
in our homes."

According to Cika, in the
construction of a new home,
where the cost of the system
is rolled into the mortgage,
homeowners can save more
on their monthly energy

bills than the increase in
their house payment. "So-
lar water heating provides a
positive cash flow from the
day of move in," he says,
"effectively giving an im-
mediate payback."

"In the case of an instal-
lation in an existing home in
an area that has both federal
and state rebates and incen-
tives," he says, "the payback
can vary from three to nine
years."

There are two primary
solar technologies available
in the market right now, so-
lar photovoltaic (PV) and
solar thermal. The photo-
voltaic process uses the sun
to generate electricity and
solar thermal uses the sun
to heat water. Solar thermal
often is the technology of
choice for homeowners for
a number of reasons. Kevin
Hughes, a writer for Green-
BuildingElements.com, who
installed a solar thermal sys-
tem in his San Francisco
home, explains why.

"1 prefer solar thermal,
specifically solar hot water,
a much older technology. It
is much cheaper to install,
much more efficient, and
has a much faster payback,"
he says.

For homeowners con-
sidering an installation, the

Internet offers a number of
Web sites that can be help-
ful with an analysis and then
with locating products and
installers. Findsolar.com
and nabcep.org list certified
installers by state. Solar-rat-
ing org lists certified solar
equipment manufacturers
and certified installers for
VELUX units are listed at
www.veluxusa.com.

Eere.energy.gov/con-
sumer includes a link to a
calculator for initial cost, an-
nual operating costs and de-
termining payback, as well
as a consumer's guide to so-
lar thermal, while nrel.gov
offers a consumer's guide
to photovoltaic. Federal and
state tax credit information,
by geographic area, is avail-
able at dsireusa.org.

Cika says that solar water
heating represents a logical
first step for homeowners
who want to harness the
power of the sun because it
is relatively simple technol-
ogy compared to generat-
ing electricity from the sun.
"The technologies accom-
plish different objectives,"
he says, "but they both will
pay increasing dividends
to homeowners who utilize
them now and in the fu-
ture."

Dealing With

Repeat Bladder

Infections

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I have a problem with blad-
der infections. I have been
getting one every month for
the past three years. I am a
49-year-old female. My doc-
tor gives me Cipro and the
infection goes away, but it
returns in a month. I have
tried some other antibiot-
ics with the same result. A
doctor examined my blad-
der with a scope and found
nothing w rong. Do you have
any ideas on what I could
dol -LJi.

ANSWER: Recurring
bladder infections plague many
women. They have to do with
female anatomy. The female
urethra -- the tube that drains
the bladder -- is much shorter
than the male urethra, and it
opens to the outside world in a
place where there is luxuriant
bacterial growth. Bacteria can
ascend up the urethra to the
bladder with ease. Sexual rela-
tions contribute to the problem
because contact massages bac-
teria into the urethra.

Some steps should be
taken. One is a culture of
your urine to see if this is the
same recurring bacterium and
to determine its sensitivity to
antibiotics. You might have
a resistant germ, one that no
longer completely responds to
Cipro or the other medicines
you have taken.

One way of handling this
■ problem is to stay on a small
dose of antibiotic daily or
three times a week for a pro-
tracted period of time so that
eradication of the bacterium
takes place. Bactrim (sulfame-
thoxazole with trimethoprim)
and nitrofurantoin are two an-
tibiotics often chosen.

Or your doctor can give
you a prescription for anti-

biotics to have on hand. You
start them immediately when
symptoms arise. Early treat-
ment increases the chance of
completely getting rid of the
germ.

A third option is to take an
antibiotic after intercourse.

Cranberry juice (not cran-
berry cocktail) has helped
many to stave off repeat blad-
der infections. The dose is 8
ounces a day (one glass).

The booklet on urinary
tract infections explains this
common disorder in detail.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
My teen wears flip-flops all
day, every day. We live in a
fairly warm climate, and he
wears them even during the
winter months. I don't think
this is good for his feet. Do
you have any information
on this? - WM.

ANSWER: 1 don't think
flip-flop manufacturers intend-
ed them to be substitutes for
shoes They're for the shower
room, beach and a couple of
other similar places.

Researchers at Auburn
University have examined
flip-flop use and have found
that constant wearing of
them can present potential
problems. The foot instinc-
tively adapts to flip-flops to
keep them on the feet. Users
unconsciously take shorter
steps, and their feet strike the
ground at a slightly differ-
ent angle than shoe wearers.
When flip-flop users go back
to wearing shoes, these foot
mechanics persist and cause
fo«t discomfort. Flip-flops
provide no arch support and
very little cushioning.

ters, but he will incorporate them

depression and back pain is

something of a chicken-and-egg

phenomenon, as no one is exactly

sure which comes first. While back

pain can certainly cause someone to

become depressed, it also stands to

reason that lethargy and inactivity

can give rise to back pain. In any

event, the experience of back pain

couplnl with depression may

indicate a visit to the chiropractor,

who can prescribe treatment that

will get energy flowing again

moderate to severe depression

are experiencing mild to chronic
lower back pain, contact us to learn
about different treatment options
available. Lower back pain can be
treated effectively with chiropractic
therapy, and may be a viable
alternative to painkiller medication
and other treatments that do not
treat the source of the problem.
At the FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC, we can help
you with back problems. Have
you considered chiropractic health
care? Call us at 617.472.4220 to

HEALTH and FITNESS

Ik

End Of Summer Can Begin Healthy Habits

When sizzling summer
temperatures start mellowi ng
into cooler autumn days
and back-to-school bells
command attention, a new
season of adventure and
learning begins. A fresh start
can also dawn for a healthy
lifestyle through TOPS
Club, Inc. (Take Off Pounds
Sensibly).

Many times, a renewed
commitment to an exercise
routine and weight-loss
program is bolstered by
encouragement. As summer
begins to give way to fall,
TOPS experts provide
guidance to boost back-to-
program resolve.

Amy Goldwater, M.S.,
educator, former body-
building champion, and
physical fitness expert for
TOPS, offers advice to get
exercisers motivated as brisk
days provide a comfortable
outdoor environment. She
points out that TOPS has
long promoted walking as
a way to get in shape and
has encouraged the use of
pedometers to help walkers
track their progress.

Goldwater suggests that,
using a pedometer, walkers
are motivated by being
able to see their progress
right away, and that helps
encourage them to not only
stay committed, but to go
further, too. "The pedometer

can help people set goals and
gives them instant feedback
about how they're doing in
reaching those goals," she
adds.

Goldwater teaches that
walking three times per week
is a good goal for beginners.
Follow a schedule that
eventually leads to walking
30 minutes per day most
days of the week at a pace
of about 3.5 miles an hour,
she advises.

Strategies for Change
Patricia M. Amborn,
M.S.M., educator and
wellness author and expert
for TOPS, offers some
suggestions on attaining
goals. "1 think sometimes
we fail because we think
we have to wait for the right
person to come into our life
at the right time to inspire
us, but it's really a lot of
little steps," she says.

Amborn outlines a.
four-step process to effect
change. She starts with
George Bernard Shaw's
quote, "Life is not about
finding yourself. Life is
about creating yourself."
She advises keeping in mind
that each of us creates his or
her own self.

Her second point is
that self-improvement is a
persona] choice. Whether
good habits or bad habits
prevail, it's a choice.

"Remembering this prevents
excuses," Amborn notes. "It
puts the onus back on the
person because it's his or her
choice to change or not."

Amborn believes that
no one actually has to be
motivated in order to get
moving. "You can start
something, and you'll
become motivated," she
says. She gives the example
of someone who knows he
or she should get outside
and go for a walk, but can't
find the willpower to do it.
If that person simply puts on
sneakers and starts putting
one foot in front of the
other, the action will create
the resulting motivation to
doit.

She also says that
everyone needs to practice
self-reflection in order to
set goals. "How do you
know what to move toward
if you don't know what's
important to you?" Amborn
asks. "September, when
school starts, could be a
time to learn more about
ourselves."

Self- Work Tools

To promote self-
reflection, Amborn suggests
the following methods:

Use self-talk with
affirmations such as, "I can
achieve this." Negative self-
talk is a defeating drain on
energy.

Positive thinking is
another tool. "We would
be surprised to find how
often we sabotage ourselves
with negative thinking,"
she observes. "An example
is: i'm too overweight
already so why bother?'
We often pick on ourselves.
Recognize it for what it is
and tell yourself to stop."

"Create a vision board;
cut out pictures from
magazines of how you'd
like to look and keep them
in a prominent spot to view.
Have some fun with it. You
could also journal to record
your dreams and success
stories, along with failures,
because you learn from
failures," Amborn adds.

With practice, the self-
work tools get easier. "It
can be hard to master some
of these techniques but,
once you do, it's powerful."
Amborn says.

Along the way, she
emphasizes, practice

patience. Visualize enjoying
a life that is newly created.
"Practice stopping the
negative self-talk; use the
other tools, and be patient,"
she advises. "Start and end
with self-love. Starting with
that will help you create the
life you desire in the first
place. And, end with self-
love, because you are worth
it."

Back Safety For The Annual Big Move

Each September, the
streets of the Boston area are
littered with moving trucks,
vans, packed cars, clumsy
amateur movers and any
friends and family members
they could persuade to par-
ticipate in the big move.

The biggest moving day
of the year surely comes
with its hazards, as a variety
of these movers maneuver
their way into new digs, one
heavy box at a time.

To prevent this event
from being a "back-break-
ing" one, Marie-Josee McK-
enzie, physical therapist
in Rehabilitation Services
at Brigham and Women's
Hospital, has some tips for
movers.

Preparation is key;
McKenzie offers general
tips to keep in mind before
the move:

• Pack boxes over time to
avoid sore muscles on mov-
ing day.

• Disperse heavy items
in the bottom of a box with
lighter items on top to main-
tain even weight distribu-
tion. The heavier the items,
the smaller the box should
be.

• Place boxes on an ele-
vated surface while packing

to avoid repeatedly bending
over.

• Secure boxes with tape
to prevent contents from
spilling when lifted.

• Dress for the task: wear
lightweight, comfortable
clothes and supportive and
sturdy shoes (avoid san-
dals).

• Stretch your muscles
and warm up with a light
activity as you would before
any exercise.

Improper lifting tech-
niques can cause a variety of
injuries: neck and back mus-
cle strain, ligament sprains,
herniated discs and even
compression fractures of the
spine. To prevent potentially
serious and lasting injuries,
McKenzie provides smart
techniques for movers.

• Know your limits: lift a
comer to test items first. Ask
for help with heavy or bulky
loads.

• Establish a firm grip
and a wide stance before
fully lifting. Hold the heavi-
est portion of the load clos-
est to the naval , your center
of gravity.

• When lifting objects,
always bend at the knees,
keeping your back straight
and your abdominal muscles

firm. Reverse the motion,
avoiding an arched back, to
lower objects.

• When lifting items
from inside a vehicle, place
one foot in the vehicle to in-
crease your mechanical ad-
vantage.

• Never hold your breath
when lifting a load, as this
may cause elevated blood
pressure levels.

• Know where you plan
to place an object before
lifting and carrying it. Keep
paths clear and move slowly
while maintaining a clear
line of vision.

• If another person is
sharing the load, commu-
nicate to lift and lower in
unison.

• Avoid twisting, which
compounds stress in your
back and affects balance. If
you must turn, move your
feet to change direction and
pivot with your whole body.

• Push, rather than pull,
to maximize use of your full
body weight.

• Rest heavy or awkward
items on waist-level surfaces
midway through carrying,

• Avoid reaching over-
head with objects. Keep
elbows close to sides when
lifting.

• Consider using devices
such as handcarts, back sup-
ports and stepladders to ease
strain.

• Take frequent breaks
and drink plenty of water to
prevent dehydration.

Some are at higher risk
for injury while moving.
McKenzie cautions indi-
viduals to think twice before
lifting heavy objects if they:

• Have a history of neck
or back injuries

• Currently experience
neck or back pain

• Have poor cardiovas-
cular endurance and do not
exercise regularly

• Have respiratory and
cardiac conditions

• Are at risk for obesity,
high blood pressure, diabe-
tes or bone density disor-
ders

• Are pregnant or think
they may be pregnant

Manager Sal Salvatore Moving On After 51 Years

Quincy Babe Ruth 14- Year Old All-Stars
Had A Great Summer Of Baseball

By SEAN BRENNAN

When the Quincy Babe
Ruth 14- Year Old All-Star
team lost to Hingham, 8-0,
in the championship game
of the Suburban League
playoffs on Aug. 8, it not
only marked the end of a
successful campaign for the
team, it also was the last
game in Quincy Point native
and veteran Manager Sal
Salvatore's 51 -year coach-
ing career.

It was a bittersweet fin-
ish for Salvatore. who will
be packing up and moving
to Florida later this year to
be closer to his family, but
one loss does not tarnish the
good his team accomplished
in the summer of 2009.

"I love baseball and I
loved working with and
coaching these kids," said
Salvatore last week. "I have
been coaching baseball in
Quincy for 51 years and this
team is one of the best and
most talented group of play-
ers I have had the privilege
of coaching.

"It stung that we made it
all the way to the Suburban
League championship game
and lost, but these kids prac-
ticed hard and played hard
all season long and the were
committed to the goal of
playing sound baseball and
that is all I could have asked
for."

Salvatore, who was bom
and raised in Quincy and
was a 1961 graduate of the
old Quincy Trade School,
works in the Maintenance
Department at Quincy Med-
ical Center. During his 51-
year coaching career he has
worked at the AAA-level,
the Junior League level, and
at both the Babe Ruth and
Senior Babe Ruth levels.
He and his wife Judith, who
also has been active in youth
baseball in Quincy, have de-
cided that it is time to move
on and leave their beloved
Quincy behind.

"I was

bom and

raised in this
city, but it is
time to move
on," he said.
"As soon as
we can sell
our house,
we are going
to move to
Florida to be
close to fam-
ily. I was hop-
ing to hang on
for one more
vear because
these kids are
going to have
the opportu-
nity to play
in the Babe
Ruth Region-
al Tournament next summer
at Adams Field, and I want-
ed to be a part of that, but it
time to go.

"But this year was a
great way to end my career.
We finished with a 16-6-1
record, we advanced all the
way to the championship
game and we had fun play-
ing in the annual Jimmy
Fund Tournament."

In the final game of the

Quincy 15- Year Old All-
Stars, 15-1. The highlight
of the game was two div-
ing catches by left fielder
Billy Campbell. Pat Gould,
Edgerly, Steele and Heffer-
nan all had hits for Quincy's
younger all -stars.

"Playing in the Jimmy
Fund Tournament was one
of the best thing we did this
season," said Ryan Young at
a pizza party held Monday
atGennaro's.

Added Alex Heffeman,

"It was a really good season
and we did well, but playing
in the Jimmy Fund Tourna-
ment was great."

In the Suburban League
playoffs, Quincy beat Can-
ton, 6-5 (Loud was the win-
ning pitcher), defeated Sci-
tuate, 7-2 (Steele was the
winning pitcher), and beat
Duxbury, 12-3 (hitting stars
were McGaughey, Loud.
Songsit, and Steele) to reach
the finals against Hingham.

After playing seven
games in five days, Quincy
ran out of gas and lost to
Hingham, 8-0.

"It kind of stunk that we
made it all the way to the fi-
nals and lost," said George
Whitley. "But we had a
great season and played well
all summer long."

"This was my first year
playing baseball and it was
fun," added Songsit. "We
had a great team and a great
coach."

For most of the players
on the Quincy Babe Ruth
14- Year Old All-Star team
the loss to Hingham will just
be one game of many they
will play over the course of
the next five, ten, or twenty
years, but for Salvatore, it
was his finale. He has put in
his time and is now (how-
ever reluctantly) hanging up
the score book and moving
on to the next stage of life.

"1 will miss being on the
field and coaching young-
sters the game of baseball.
1 love baseball and love
working with kids. I did my
best over the last 5 1 years to
make sure everyone got the
chance to play. If you played
for me, you always got the
chance to play, to hit and to
field. That was important to
me.

"It is time to do some-
thing else, but 1 will remem-
ber and cherish the baseball
memories I have made in
Quincy."

A 'Thank You' From
Quincy Babe Ruth

Quincy Babe Ruth,
which played host to an
eight-team 13- Year Old
Massachusetts State Tour-
nament July 23-30 at Ad-
ams Field, issued the fol-
lowing statement of thanks
and recognition last month
to The Quincy Sun:

"Quincy Babe Ruth
would like to thank all
the parents who helped
with the 13-Year Old State
Tournament that was held
at Adams Field from July
23 thru July 29.

"Our congratulations to
the Weymouth 13's who
won the tournament and
went on to the Regional
Toumament in Leominster,
Massachusetts.

"We would also like to
thank Roger Homan from
radio station 1510 at Mari-
na Bay for his support and
for volunteering and also
thanks to John Perry who
was our official scorer.

"And, of course, thanks
to the Park Department. As
usual , they did a great job
on the field."

QYB 14-Undef All-Stars
Dream Season Ends in NJ

Quincy Youth Baseball's
14-under District All-Star
team's "dream season" came
to an end at the Eastem Re-
gional Junior League Tour-
nament, which was held in
Freehold, New Jersey at the
beginning of August. Quincy
lost both games they played
in the Eastem Regional.

Quincy had advanced to
the Eastem Regional after
defeating North Reading and
capturing the Massachusetts
State Championship during
the last week of July at Le-
Lacheur Park in Lowell.

Following a send-off at
Adams Field with many
well-wishers; including fam-
ily, friends, and many local
politicians, the team traveled
seven hours to Freehold, NJ
in a bus donated by the Car-
ey Transportation Company.
The team got a big kick out
of seeing the "Good Luck
Quincy Youth Baseball" mes-
sage on the Local 103 elec-
tronic message board off the
Southeast Expressway. The
team made a nice entrance to
the Friday night welcoming
banquet with their new QYB

golf shirts and the freshly
cut "Mohawk-style haircuts"
thanks to team barber Tim
Hay ward.

On Saturday morning, the
Quincy team was introduced
as the "Massachusetts State
Champions" to a large crowd
at the opening ceremonies
along with the state cham-
pions from Maine, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, Delaware,
Pennsylvania, Maryland and
the host team from Freehold.

On Sunday, Quincy faced
the state champions from

New Jersey at Michael Tighe
Stadium in front of a huge
and loud home crowd. NJ's
leadoff hitter tripled and
scored on a groundout, giv-
ing NJ the early 1-0 lead.

Quincy pitcher Tom Mc-
Donald, after overcoming
some first inning jitters, set-
tled down and behind some
solid defense, held NJ in
check over the next few in-
nings. In the fourth inning,
Quincy staged a two-out ral-
ly and took a 2-1 lead. Sin-

LALLY-FARRELL BOXING CLUB: Quincy residents (from left) Chaz Waterman, Gary Janes,
Brendan Lally and Devin Alexander take a break from their training at the newly opened Lally-
Farrell Boxing Club in Quincy Center earlier this week. The new club will officially open on
Sept. 8.

Lally-Farrell Boxing Club
Set To Open Sept. 8

By SEAN BRENNAN

For the hundreds of
Quincy kids out there look-
ing for a way to get in shape,
refocus their lives or just
stay active, the brand new
Lally-Farrell Boxing Club,
located at 1452 Hancock
Street, Quincy Center, may
be their best bet.

The boxing club, founded
by Jack Lally and Jimmy
Farrell, has a mission state-
ment that states that the club
is "open to all boxing and
fitness enthusiasts over the
age of eight from all over
the area with the objective of
promoting amateur boxing
in accordance with standards
under the rules prescribed by
the United States of America
Amateur Boxing Federation.
Inc and local Boxing Com-
mittee."

Farrell, who has been
training local boxing talent
for years and is a four-time
Golden Gloves champion,
a former AAU profession-
al and is a member of the
New England Boxing Hall
of Fame, has helped boxers
qualify, compete and win at
national levels, including 28
national champions, and he
sees the new boxing club in
Quincy as a way to help keep
youngsters in shape and in
some cases, keep them out
of trouble.

"We are expecting to have
a number of Quincy kids and
some others from the sur-
rounding communities come
and train at our club," said
Farrell. "I have been training
boxers for years, including
local talent like Ryan Kiel-
czweski and Nick Cyr, both
North Quincy High School
graduates and we feel like
this is a good opportunity to
get more local kids involved
in the sport. There is plenty

of talent in this city.

"Boxing is a way for you
to gain some .self-esteem and
confidence. Boxing helps
you form bonds with those
you train with and form
friendships made in blood."
The Lally-Farrell Box-
ing Club's goal, according
to Farrell and his partner
Jack Lally, is to "train box-
ers of any age, but particu-
larly young boys and girls
with programs that will
instill sportsmanship, fair
play, physical conditioning
and mental, spiritual and
emotional health. Under the
guidance of our coaches and
trainers, all of whom are
volunteers, our young box-
ers, many of which are con-
sidered at risk youth, will
develop self-confidence and
self esteem while learning
pugilistic skills and self-de-
fense. More than just a place
to go to get off the streets,
our programs will reward
youngsters for academic
achievement, community
service and positive acUons
and attitudes both inside the
club and out in the commu-
nity."

Lally, whose son Bren-
dan is among the many tal-
ented boxers training at the
club, sees boxing as an out-
let for youngsters who may
be headed down the wrong
path.

"It (boxing) helps set
kids straight," Lally said. "If
we can take one kid out of
lOO and help them get their
life and priorities in order,
that can make a huge differ-
ence."

On Monday, which was
the unofficial opening of the
Lally-Farrell Boxing Club
(the official opening date is
Sept. 8), a handful of Quincy
youngsters were already in

the basement gym working
out. All of them were there
for the similar reasons. Be-
sides the obvious reason
of being at the club to get
shape, they were also there
to learn how to box and be-
come better fighters, with
the goal of being able to
compete against other talent
in the area.

"I am here because I love
to box," said Brendan Lally.
"It is my dad's gym, but I
have always enjoyed it and
now I have a place in Quincy
to work out and train. That is
why I am here."

"I always wanted to learn
how to box and 1 want to
compete and get better.'"
added Quincy resident Devin
Alexander.

The club, boxing skill sets
and training aside, is also of-
fering a personal training
boot camp under the direc-
tion of Alfredo Denizard.
This personal training boot
camp is a 60-minute class
designed to challenge the
intermediate and advanced
and will contain full-body
muscle toning, fun agility
exerci.ses and cardio drills.

"I will be training the
fighters but I am also here
to help anyone who wants to
lose weight by using some
of the same exercises and
concepts that we are going
to use to get the boxers ready
for competition," Denizard
said.

If you are interested in
finding out additional in-
formation about what the
Lally-Farrell Boxing Club
has to offer you can visit the
gym at 1452 Hancock Street
Monday-Friday from 10
a.m. to 8 p.m. or call either

or Alfredo Denizard at 857-

American Football Club
Accepting Enrollment

The American Football
Club (AFC) has opened en-
rolment in the U8 Founda-
tions Soccer Skills Program.
The fall program is open to
local first-and-second grade
boys and gids ages 6-7-years
old.

The Foundations Soccer
Program provides extensive
soccer skills development for
young players and it is AFC's
preparation program for par-
ents interested in having their
children get a head start in or-
ganized league play. In Mas-
sachusetts, young players are
not allowed to participate in
travel league play until they
are UIO or entering third and
fourth grade (age 8-9).

Enrolled players train an
hour-and-a-half. three times
a vveek. over a nine-week pe-
riod. The structured program
places emphasis on individu-
al ball work and ptissession
skill development. During
each of the three da>s, pla\ -

ers work directly with their
stxcer ball for about a half
session and learn feigns and
other changes of direction
moves.

"Our training emphasis
is not on passing the ball but
on keeping possession of it,"
said AFC Academv Direc-
tor James Abundis. "Passing
skills are dexeloped at later
ages. Players at this age need
to develop basic ccwrdination
and ball control skills."

Abundis and the AFC
training crew try to maxi-
mize the number of touches
the players have on the ball
while they are training.

"The thing with IS pla> ers
is that yiHi train them h) plac-
ing a lot *")f games," Abundis
added "It is kind of like pla\-

Dream Season Ends in NJ

Con d On Paf>e 28

McDonald, David Joyce and
Matt Davis scored two runs
but Quincy's Andrew Currie
was thrown out at the plate to
end the inning.

Quincy held that 2-1 lead
thanks to McDonald's pitch-
ing and strong defense by
shortstop Pat Verhault and
third baseman Jason Pekki-
nen who snared a line drive
to rob a sure RBI double. Un-
fortunately. McDonald had to
be removed from the mound
due to the 95-pitch count rule
after throwing five solid in-
nings. David Joyce, who had
two hits in the game, was
called in to pitch in the si.xth
inning and did a nice job.

Quincy's defense again
came up huge with a man on
first and two outs. A NJ bat-
ter drove the ball to the right
field fence that looked like
it would tie the game at 2-2,
but Josh Hay ward made a
good throw to Pekkinen who
in turn made a perfect throw
to the plate. Catcher Andrew
Jaehnig caught the relay,
blocked the plate with his left
leg and made the tag.

NJ tied the score at 2-2 in
the seventh, but Quincy re-
gained the lead in the eighth.
Matt Davis led off with a
walk and advanced to third
on an error and scored the go-
ahead run on a wild pitch.

NJ ended the game by
scoring two runs with two
outs in ninth, winning in
walk-off fashion, 4-3.

A disappointed and un-
dermanned Quincy team was
forced, as a result of the 4-3
loss to N J , to play on Monday
at 1 p.m. against the Maine
state champions. Quincy
jumped out to a 2-0 lead
when Rudy Tryon (three hits)
led off with a single. Special
runner Andrew Currie went
all the way around to third
base on a pre-planned steal
and sacrifice bunt by Ver-
hault. Mike Gallotto knocked
him in with a single and later
scored when Jason Pekkinen
worked a bases loaded walk.

In the second inning,
Maine took advantage of
a questionable balk call to
score two runs and later took
the lead with two runs in the
third, but Quincy would not
give in . Josh Hay ward opened
the fourth inning with a walk
and Currie stole second and
came around to score on a
Jaehnig RBI double.

Maine regained the lead in
the fifth inning on a triple and
single, but Quincy tied it up
again when Hayward again
drew a walk, stole second
and scored on a RBI single
by Tryon.

Maine would regain the
lead in the sixth when they

scored two runs with twoouts,
but again, Quincy battled
back in the last frame. Gal-
lotto singled; Joyce walked;
Currie walked and Hayward
walked (scoring Gallotto).
Down by a run, and with
the bases loaded, the game
and the season ended with a
groundout to shortstop.

"The players, coaches,
parents and fans of the Quin-
cy Youth Baseball 14-under
team will never forget the
summer of 2009 when they
became the first Quincy base-
ball team to win a state cham-
pionship," said head coach
Mark Jaehnig. "It marked
the first time in 35 years that
a Quincy team of any age
earned the right to travel to
a tournament outside of the
New England states.

"Congratulations to team
members Dan Cobban, An-
drew Currie, Matt Davis. Bri-
an Fahey, Mike Gallotto, Josh
Hayward, TJ Hobin, Andrew
Jaehnig, David Joyce, Tom
McDonald, Jason Pekkinen,
Mike Pugsley, Rudy Tryon
and Pat Verhault. Paul Ce-
drone and Mike Joyce were
coaches.

"Thanks to all of the
fans and Quincy residents
who supported the team and
wished us well."

the 2009 baseball season
with a 9-9 overall record and
finishing one-point out of

The team, needing that
one last point to qualify for
the South Shore League
playoffs, came up short in
their final regular season
game of the year. Wollaston

erage).

Head Coach Steve Rear-
don acknowledged the help
and support of many vol-
unteer coaches, his special
group of veteran players and
the Quincy Park and Recre-

ation Department and par-
ents.

"You need a special group
of volunteer coaches to try
and keep 18 kids happy and
ready each game and we had
them giving up many of their
hours from May 1 to July 19
with Pete (move your feet)
Delgardo, Ross Stiffler and
Dave Sheridan. With spe-
cial thanks to Andy Martin,
Dwight Jayne and team cap-
tain Sean McDonald who
kept everyone on their toes
one way or another.

"Lastly, thanks to the
Parks and Recreation De-
partment and the parents of
all the players."

fOR TH£ ^hk

Labor Day, today, fm* most Americans has
become a traditional last-fling-(rf'-the-sunimer
weekend. It is mudi more than diis concep-
tion...

Labor Day has been a natimal holiday since
1894. It became a holiday in recognition d'those
SCOTT DE WARE inen anj women wlio are the working segmmt
(rf our nation. (OriginaDy it was probably meant only for those wtw were
employed in factories; to the workers in the nation's industrial develop-
ment) But not today ... the labor force today is the secretary, the farma-,
the school teacher, the (rffice manager, the executive, the firmian, the law
officer, phis hundreds of others.

Today, we are concerned about the numba" of unemployed ... those
who want jobs and can't find them - those who can't hold on to jobs - but
at the same time, we need to appreciate and praise the millions who are
on the job eveiyday ... on every conceivable job one can think of .. .

We need to pro vide education, both fixNn books and learning to do with
our hmds, so that every man and woman is capable (rf' woridng. Above

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Be careful not to allow the back-
ers of a new financial "deal" to
pull the wool over the Lamb's
eyes. It could hold fewer plus-
ses and more negatives than you
were first led to believe.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
It's a good idea to fwiish all in-
complete tasks so that you can
devote your attention to next
week's projects. The weekend
could hold surprises for roman-
tic Fernandas and Ferdinands.

GEMINI ( May 2 1 to June 20) A
workplace suggestion you made
a while ago that you might have
forgotten could come back with
a request to turn it from idea to
reality. Your social life picks up
considerably this weekend.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Someone from the past could
return with an intriguing oppor-
tunity for a future project. Check
into it, by all means. But don't
neglect your current responsi-
bilities in the meantime.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Keeping your claws sheathed
and using good humor instead
to counter someone who's bad-
mouthing the Big Cat isn't easy.
But it's the best way to avoid
more problems down the line.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) A workplace situation
could improve if you're less
critical and more supportive of
those who are, after all. trying
to do their best. Let them know
you're there to help when neces-
sary.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) A new job offer might
not carry all the benefits you're

seeking. Make sure you know
what you're entitled to, what is
off the table and what is negotia-
ble before you make a decision.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) A social obligation
you would rather get out of could

He also owned and operated
his own printing company in

He was proud of be-

Visit To Quincy In 1980

Cont 'd From Pa^e 1 7

a step backward from the
wage and price controls he
advocated during his cam-
paign for the presidential
nomination.

"I made that recommen-
dation at a time when our in-
terest rates were in excess of
19 percent, unemployment
was increasing and inflation
was as high as 14 to 17 per-
cent," he said.

"There is obviously less
need at the present time for
that particular method of
controlling inflation. Man-
datory controls are abso-
lutely the last resort."

Kennedy said he fears a
Reagan victory in the Nov. 4
election for the lasting effect
it might have on the judicial

system, particularly the U.S.
Supreme Court.

"The new administration
will have the opportunity to
appoint three, perhaps four.
Supreme Court justices," he
said. "I am much concerned
that Mr. Reagan would fol-
low the ideological test for
judicial office that is in the
Republican platform.

"I think the test for ser-
vice on the Supreme Court
ought to be judicial compe-
tency and integrity.

"1 have supported for ap-
pointment to the Supreme
Court of Justice Lewis F.
Powell, Jr, who is consid-
ered to be a very conserva-
tive individual, and I think
he has been an outstanding
member of the Supreme
Court."

A funeral Mass for Walter
T. Belcher of Punta Gorda.

28.

Born in Rhode Island, he
grew up in Quincy. He was
a 1952 graduate of North
Quincy High School and at-
tended Wentworth Univer-

Mr Belcher worked as

FACT: Bill Phelan buried $5 mUlion in taxes by using

department budgets in an election year.

FACT: Bill Phelan never budgeted any money for his
Honeywell deal, including $4.1 million in costs that
had to be added to taxes.

FACT: Bill Phelan left taxpayers another $4.7 million
in unfunded employee contracts, unfunded debt
payments and misused reserves, all of which had to be
added to tax bills.

Bill Phelan Never
Speaks Honestly About Taxes

• Bill Phelan blamed former Mayor Jim Sheets for
every tax increase over six years, including a record
hike in 2003.

• The Patriot Ledger reported in 2003 that "The
average tax bill will soar nearly 18 percent," two years
after Bill Phelan took office.

• Now he's trying to shift blame again for bills he left
on the desk of our new mayor.

• Bill Phelan increased spending every year during his
tenure, but takes no responsibility for taxes.

$500,000 Set Aside For Homehiiyers

Housing Trust Will Aid
Workers Seeking Homes

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Potential homeowners
just short of the cash needed
to buy their own home will
get a boost from a new pro-
gram funded by half a mil-
lion dollars from the city's
Affordable Housing Trust
Fund.

Entitled "At Home In
Quincy," the program is

geared to "...working fami-
lies who need a little bit of
help," according to Thomas
Fabrizio, Executive Director
of the Trust which is funded
by contributions from de-
velopers.

"At Home In Quincy"
targets individuals, couples
or families who can raise
at least 3% of the bank's

required down payment for
the property and whose in-
come is at or below 120% of
the city's median income.

Applicants will be con-
sidered on a "first come,
first serve" basis, regardless
of their family or marital
status, according to Fabrizio
who said completed applica-
tions will be time-stamped

to safeguard the process.

Zoning Overhaul Submitted Program Aims To Fix

Leak-Prone Water Pipes

Mayor Thomas Koch this
week formally delivered a
proposal tor the what city
officials are calling the most
substantial overhaul of city
building and zoning rules
in a generation to the City
Council.

The revamped zoning
code proposal - which of-
ficials have worked on for
more than a year - is the
product of Koch's Zoning
Task Force, which started its

plan that protects our neigh-
borhoods and drives devel-
opment toward commercial
centers, and 1 believe this
proposal does that," Koch
said in a statement released
Tuesday. "I thank all mem-
bers of the task force for their
work, and we look forward
to working together with the

we are going to continue to
cut costs is to find all the
leaks and fix them, and stop
the ocean water from getting
into the sewer. The MWRA
charges us for all of that."

The first phase of the
plan, which will be con-
ducted over the next several
months, calls for an expan-
sion of an existing leak de-
tection program in the Water
Department. That program
has already reduced the
amount of water lost pri-
marily through leaks from
32 percent to 17 percent of
all water billed to the city

will save about $1 .2 million
every year.

The plan will be formally
presented to the Quincy City
Council in coming weeks,
with funding coming from
the MWRA grants, the Sew-
er Rehabilitation Fee paid by
builders, and cost-savings
from previous reforms.

The program comes in
the wake of reforms over
that 18 months that elimi-
nated a $3 million deficit in
the department, indentified
unmetered hookups and cor-
rected a series of other prob-
lems that plagued the Water
and Sewer Department for
years, officials said.

PEARLS' LUSTER WEARS ON

w^w^v .steak:xii»s .coivi

The most important factor
to take into consideration when
evaluating the beauty of pearls is
their "luster." This characteristic,
which sets pearls apart from other
gems, refers to the inner glow
and surface brilliancy that are
released by reflected light. While
a pearl's luster is dependent
upon several factors, nacre (the
pearly substance that the mollusk
secretes in layers around an
irritant) thickness is foremost. For
the best luster, the nacre must be
translucent and layered in such a
way that the pearl seems to be lit
from within. To gauge this quality,
hold an object next to a pearl and
look at its reflection. The sharper
the reflection, the better the luster

and the more valuable the pearl.

Pearls from the sea or gemstones
from the earth— when one deals
in fine jewelry of any kind, the
pieces should be classic, creative,
and everlasting. They make a
statement for today, and they'll
continue to make a statement ten,
twenty, or fifty years from now.
We welcome you to come in, visit
with us, and see some exceptional
examples of the exquisite peari
and other fine jewelry. We know
there is a difference here, and we
invite you to 1402 Hancock Street,

Using $10,000 Raised By Charity Golf Tournament

Koch Submits Order
Asking Council To Reinstate
Senior Abatement Program

Thui-Mlay, SeptemtMr 10, 2009 Tbe Q\&izi.cy Svui PaKf 3

A program offering tax
rebates to seniors in return
for volunteer service will
be reinstated this year with
$10,000 in proceeds from
the Mayor's Cup Charity
Golf Tournament held last
year.

At Tuesday's City Coun-
cil meeting, Mayor Thomas
Koch submitted a financial
order asking councillors to
use the money for the Senior
Worker Abatement Program
(SWAP), in which seniors
can volunteer to give 100
hours in community service
in return for a $500 abate-
ment on their property tax

bill.

The program was origi-
nally sacrificed as part of a
$4.4 million in spending cuts
in the city budget, but can
be reinstated thanks to funds
from the Mayor's Cup, of-
ficials said. The tournament
raised about $70,000 last
year, and most of the money
went to pay for a fuel -as-
sistance program for needy
families in addition to other
charities.

"This is a worthwhile
volunteer program, and I am
proud that we will be able
to find the funding to con-
tinue it during these histori-

South Quincy Italian
Festival Cancelled

Organizers of the South
Quincy Italian Festival have
notified city officials that
this year's festival has been
canceled and any future fes-
tival is unlikely.

The festival had been
held the weekend after La-
bor Day for the past 24
years.

"It is with deep regret
we inform you of this deci-
sion," said the organizers.
Steve Maze, Harry Bertoni
and Rick Speranzo in their
official notice to City Clerk
Joseph Shea.

Maze. Bertoni and Sper-

anzo thanked city officials
and agencies for their help
in the success of the festival
in past decades

The 2009 event would
have marked a quarter cen-
tury for the festival which
brought fnends and families
back to South Quincv everv
September to celebrate their
Italian heritage and their
roots in South Quincy and
to raise scholarship funds
for Quincy students.

The letter cited some
of the practical reasons for
ending the tradition.

"Our decision was dif-

ficult, but necessar). Some
of the factors we considered
were insurance, liability, co-
operation of vendors, declin-
ing attendance, declining
number of vendors, lack of
volunteer help, higher costs
for entertainment, and diffi-
culty raising donations"

Thev, also, cited the un-
certaint) of available park-
mg m the area.

"Our intention is to con-
tinue to award scholarships
until our funds are deleted.
Our future is uncertain."" the
letter concluded.

Welcome To Quincy, Doug And Debbie Burr

Morrissey Office Hours Friday

Sen. Michael Morrissey
will hold office hours Fri-
day, Sept. 11 from 9 to 10
a.m. in the second floor con-
ference room of City Hall,

You might call them the new kids in town.
And they are eager to make friends and become part
of the fabric of the community as they settle into their new
posts.

They are Majors Doug and Debbie Burr, the new pastors
and administrators of the Salvation Army Quincy Temple
Corps based on Baxter Street.

The Burrs arrived in Quincy a few months ago and of-
ficially succeeded Majors Doug and Linda Jones on July 1 .
The Joneses, who served the Quincy Temple Corps for eight
years, were transferred to Manchester, CT.

"We're really glad to be here." Debbie says, "and we're
anxious to make friends in the community and get to know
people. We have an open-door policy. If anyone wants to
come by just to meet us and introduce themselves, we're
very open to that."

The Burrs come to Quincy after serving two years in
Rhode Island as state coordinators. This is their first assign-
ment in the Bay State. Other assignments have included
Homestead, Long Island; White Plains. NY., Spring Val-
ley. NY., Newark and Union, N.J., Red Bank, N.J. (for nine
years) and then Bangor, ME for seven years before Rhode
Island.

They are quickly finding Quincy - and its citizens - to
their liking.

"We like the city a lot," Doug says. "We've always trav-
eled through Massachusetts but never really spent any time
in this state, other than a quick trip to Boston. Rhode Island
is not too far away and we're still near the water here. We
spent seven years in Bangor, ME and that's like the edge of
the world up there so coming into this area is just wonder-
ful"

Debbie adds: "I'm still trying to get used to it all. I
thought (the city) was larger than it feels. The downtown
has that small downtown feel but it's not that small. It feels
comfortable and that I like."

One of the first adjustments for the Burrs has been the
traffic in and around the city.

"We are finding the traffic is crazy," Doug says. "Wlien
we left Maine and went to Rhode Island we thought 'oh, no,
the traffic's going to be horrible.' And we had some prob-
lems here and there but nothing like here. We're learning the
places where we're going to hit the traffic."

"And," Debbie adds, "we're trying to learn all the short-
cuts, too."

Most importantly, the Burrs are finding Quincy resi-
dents - especially those associated with the Salvation Army
church and its programs - have rolled out a big welcome
mat.

"We are very much enjoying the people associated with
the Salvation Army here, especially the church. We have a
very good congregation and we're very pleased. We're find-
ing a lot of similar interests and they've made us feel very
welcome here."

They are also looking forward to working with the staff
of the pre-school and other programs offered by the Salva-
tion Army as the fall season gets underway.

Doug, age 52, was commissioned an officer in the Salva-
tion Army in 198 1 . He was bom into a Salvation Army fam-
ily as both his mother and father were officers. He was bom
in Homestead, PA - a suburb of Pittsburgh - but spent less
than a year there before his parents were relocated. Growing
up he also spent time living in parts of Ohio, New Jersey
and New York.

Debbie hails from Winsted, Conn. She was commis-
sioned an officer in 1982. They have been married for 27
years and have two children: a son who is finishing his stud-
ies at the University of Northwestem Ohio in Lima, OH; and
a daughter who is married and working in Orlando, FL.

They have one grandson and are expecting their second
grandchild early next year.

The Burrs are both college educated. Debbie has a bach-
elor's degree in Christian ministry from the Salvation Army
Booth College in Winnipeg, Canada.

Doug graduated from Montclair State University in New
Jersey with a degree in music performance. In 2003, he re-
ceived his master's degree in leadership and ministry from
Greenville College. His college work includes writing pa-
pers on theology of worship and a discipleship curriculum.
They are also musicians. Doug plays the bass trombone,
trombone, and euphonium. Debbie dabbles with the alto
hom. Although she professes not to be very talented, Doug
begs to differ. "She is quite good, don't let her kid you."

The Salvation Army has its own 1 5-piece band in Quincy
which performs at its Sunday services.

Besides being spiritual leaders of its congregation, the
Burrs are in the process of reviewing all the programs the

SALVATION ARMY Majors Debbie and Doug Burr outside
the Quincy Temple Corps on Baxter Street. Their new appoint-
ment began July I.

Salvation Army has to offer in Quincy. They include the
adult day health care program, emergency assistance, holi-
day assistance and senior vacations as well as youth pro-
grams such as the SonShine Pre-School and Camp Wonder-
land Camperships.

"Administratively, we need to make sure the budget bal-
ances out," Doug says. "Typically there's been a lot of activ-
ity and programming going on here."

They also would like to focus their ministry on building
relationships with younger adults.

"We are very much interested in connecting with the
Eastern Nazarene College students so we expect that to be a
new thmst of ours. I remember my college years and you're
kind of stretching your wings and going off on your own.
It's very easy to slide away from church and maybe not be
as connected as you should be," Doug says.

"Our ministry focus for a number of years," Debbie ex-
plains, "has been working with high school young adults. So
one of our goals for our pastoral ministry is to get something
like that kicked off. Just having a relationship with the stu-
dents and being available to help them."

The Burrs recently met with pastors and other church
leaders comprising the South Shore Clergy Association.

"There's been some discussions about getting the church-
es together for different events. We look forward to that,"
Debbie says.

But as they begin their new appointment, the Burrs say
their paramount need right now is listening to God.

"I could come in with some brilliant ideas and thoughts
that I've created but it's not necessarily about what I want to
do; it's really what God has in store and it takes some time
to really figure that out," Doug explains. "Our approach is
really to spend a lot of time listening to God as far as okay,
what do we need to do here with this appointment and what
are the specifics of what You have for us to accomplish.

"Once you sort through that, then you really begin to
know what he wants you to do and then you'll know what
you are doing will be successful because that's what He
wants.

"I say that God is not obligated to fund or support my
brilliant ideas," Doug continues. "But He does obligate
himself to do what He wants done. So if we follow His will
and do what He wants for us then I can be confident the
finances will be there, that the program will work and will
be successful. We're still in that development stage in trying
to figure that out."

Debbie adds: "We're still in that fact-finding stage. And
that will take a while."

"And that's true for the office work and business work as
well," Doug says. "Sitting down and looking at our budget
and looking at our programs and talking to the people and
finding out from them why they are here and why do we do
this program. Why is it effective? Why is it good? Can we
change something? Do we need to change anything?

"We like to ask a lot of questions because that's how you
get your basis for what you can do and where you can go.
Once you get it all sorted out, then you begin to have some
ideas.

"It's not good to come in right away and make sweeping
changes when you really don't know what's going on. And
there's a lot going on here."

The Burrs also convey this message to the community
and their congregation: "God has a great plan for our lives.
I think He is very patient and has a lot of grace and mercy.
We tend to make God in our image so we think God thinks
like we do.

"That's not the case at all. He's a lot more merciful and
a lot more loving and kind. Scripture says God is love and
yet we talk all the time about God punishing people. Judg-
ment is a part of the process and 1 understand that but that
will come. But right now. He's all about bringing us in and
trying to work with us.

"God loves you and certainly has a good plan for your
life and we'd like to help anybody find that."

Yesterdays

THIS 1906 postcard is a view of Great Hill at the end of
Houghs Neck from Morton Street, now known as Bay-
swater Road. Note the absence of trees. Before the Great
Portland Storm of 1898, the area in the foreground was
an open inlet from Quincy bay that provided salt water
to the lowlands right of here, all the way to what was
Manet Lake. The storm sealed off the inlet and today
Bayswater Road cuts through here from the lower left

of the picture to Parkhurst Street that comes down the
hill just behind the house on the right. Used many years
for commercial marine purposes, the land under water
in the foreground was recently purchased by the city for

Commends Quincy Police Department

(A copy of the following
letter was submitted to The
Quincy Sun for publica-
tion).

Paul Keenan, Chief of
Police

Quincy Police Depart-
ment

Chief Keenan,

This letter commends
your department on a tre-
mendous job of recovering
a family heirloom that was
stolen from our home.

On Friday, July 31, we
discovered my mother-in-
law's hand-crafted diamond
ring was missing from our
bedroom after receiving a
call from a credit card com-
pany asking about unusual
activity on our account from
a previous day. (The call
prompted us to look for oth-
er valuables that might have
been stolen).

We immediately called
the non-emergency lines for
the Quincy Police and were
told an officer would be by
shortly to take a statement.
Within minutes. Officer Mi-
chael O'Brien arrived and
assessed the situation.

We informed him that we
had contractors working at
the house all week and as-
sumed one of the four peo-
ple at the house had some-
thing to do with the theft.
We had also called the head
contractor and asked him to
meet with us and the police
at our house. The contractor
arrived shortly after Officer
O'Brien

Upon hearing the story
of the ring that was missing,
Officer O'Brien immedi-
ately began to focus the dis-

cussion with the contractor
toward recovering the ring.
This ring was given to me
by my mother-in-law just
before she passed away last
August. The ring was to be
given to my daughter when
she is older so that she can
have a piece of her grand-
mother's history.

Needless to say, we con-
sider the ring to be priceless.
Unfortunately, because 1
wear the ring every so often,
we didn't have it in a safety
deposit box. Subsequent
to the initial conversation
with the contractor. Officer
O'Brien involved the detec-
tive on the duty that night.
Detective Rick Wash.

The detective came to the
house to attempt to retrieve
fingerprints from the bed-
room. He also called a few
days later to review the de-
tails of the ring and ask for a
copy of the appraisal we had
on file for the ring.

On Thursday, Aug. 6,
Detective Wash called me to
ask if I had a picture of the

ring for his file. He arrived
a few minutes later and told
me he hoped to have addi-
tional information the next
day.

Detective Wash called
the next day (Friday, Aug.
7) to ask us to meet him at
the police station. When we
arrived, he explained that
he had been working with
the Boston Police Depart-
ment all week to determine
who stole the ring and the
credit card and what chain
of events followed the theft.

At this point, we assumed
he was merely going to tell
us the case had been closed
due to the lack of evidence
or for some other reason.
We were amazed when he
said he was able to recover
the ring! While the ring
sustained severe damage at
the hands of a pawn shop
owner, we had our heirloom
returned to us within one
week of it being stolen and
can now plan to have it re-
paired.

Police officers see the

worst side of people at
times. I'm sure it's easy to
become jaded in this line of
work. However, 1 can't tell
you how much it meant to
me and my husband (and
my 16-month-old daughter)
to know we didn't lose the
ring forever.

Knowing how tirelessly
Detective Wash worked this
case all week to recover this
priceless item shows a dedi-
cation not seen in too many
professions or individuals
these days. He didn't raise
our hopes throughout the
week, but he sure made us
aware that the police don't
take these things lightly
- even when it's only one
piece of jewelry!

If there is a more formal
way for me to commend De-
tective Wash, please let me
know. I want everyone in
the city to know the kind of
person we have investigat-
ing what other people may
have determined to be a lost
cause.

Says Koch Got The Paving Job Done

Bill Phelan may not real-
ize what a can of worms he
opened.

Mr. Phelan is asking the
taxpayer for a list of worst
roads in this city. I have seen
the articles written by home
owners, criticizing his lack
of judgment in this case.

I, for one, asked Mr.
Phelan back in 2002 for
help in re-paving my section
of Willard Street, from Shea
Rink to Hay den Street. This
part of Willard Street WAS

the worst of Ward 4.

Mr. Phelan stated that
there was no money in the
budget to do that kind of
repair.

Now comes Mayor Koch.
I sent Mayor Koch an e-mail
in March of 2008 request-
ing the same job be done to
Willard Street. Mayor Koch
responded to my request by
telling me that he himself
put my street on the list of

streets to be re-paved before
the fall of 2008.

We not only have a new
street, but also new side-
walks as well.

It was Tom Koch that got
the job done, while only in
office four months.

Mr. Phelan was in office

six years, and all we got was

higher taxes and no track.

of age from Neuroblastoma. Manning the stand are (second from left): Jade Arsenault, Natasha
Sautter, Marie McDonald, Jenna Arsenault, Nicole Adams and (foreground) .Joshua Welch. The
youngsters stood out on the sidewalk in the pouring rain to draw attention to the stand which
was partially hidden on the front porch. Many people stopped by not for the lemonade but to
make a donation to this cause.

Eastern Nazarene College
Hosts Army Battalion Family Day

Sixty soldiers and their vicemen and their families,

when the Christian liberal ship agreement, ENC will

Transportation Battalion
based out of Dorchester.

The event, held on the
college's athletic fields, fea-
tured a barbecue and field
games, as well as arts and
crafts and a moon bounce
for children of battalion
members.

The Rev. Timothy Ey-
ring, coordinator of ad-
missions for ENC's Adult
Studies "LEAD" program,
delivered the invocation for
the event, while the battal-
ion's commander, Lt. Col.
Richard Rollins, presented
ENC President Corlis Mc-
Gee with a plaque in recog-
nition of the college's sup-

uled to deploy to Iraq in Jan-
uary - and will provide free
computer access to family
members who wish to send
e-mails to their loved ones
overseas.

ENC's Campus Kinder-
haus early childhood center
will also adopt the battalion
and sponsor a letter-writing
campaign to the soldiers
once they are deployed.

Sergeant First Class
Mike Kent, an ENC gradu-
ate who now serves as the
college's liaison to the mili-
tary, helped arrange ENC's
sponsorship of the 164"'
Battalion, of which he is a
member. Kent has first-hand

port for the battalion and its experience with the special

families.

"We are so pleased to
be able to make our campus
available to the 164"" Bat-
talion for its Family Day,"
said McGee, who noted that

circumstances faced by ser-
vicemen trying to complete
their education.

"I was one class shy of

ment with the battalion.
"ENC is committed to sup-
porting both our U.S. ser-

gree while 1 was overseas.
Now, I want to help the
college build a relationship

with the military so that oth-
er servicemen and veterans
can achieve their education-
al goals like 1 did."

Dr. Timothy Wooster,
vice president for enroll-
ment and institutional re-
search, said ENC's spon-
sorship agreement with the
164"' Battalion is just one
component of the college's
efforts to support service-
men and veterans, and to
help them further their edu-
cations. He said the col-
lege has embraced the new
Yellow Ribbon Program,
whereby colleges work with
the federal government to
cover any gap between a
school's tuition and a stu-
dent's GI Bill benefits.

"Partnering with the
federal govemment allows
Eastern Nazarene to provide
students with the maximum
tuition benefit possible."
Wooster said. "And among
credit-beanng institutions,
ENC is leadmg the state
in its commitment to help-
ing soldiers and veterans
through the Yellow Ribbon
Program."

Located in Quincy,
Eastern Nazarene College
(ENC) is a fully accredited
liberal arts college.

SCHOOLS OR OUR KIDS, AND HE NEVER WILL!

As a parent of two public school children, a public school graduate and the brother of three sisters who
have taught for a combined 85 years in Massachusetts public schools, I know the value of a quality public
education. Not only did I benefit from a diverse student body and committed teachers, my public education
also prepared me well for Syracuse University and Suffolk Law School. Today my daughters, Madison and
Meghan, are benefiting from those same positive experifnces in the Quincy Public Schools. As your City
Councilor, I have been a tireless advocate for our schools. Whether it has been the construction of the new
Quincy High School, planning of the new Central Middle School, or preventing cuts in school funding, 1
have always been there as a voice for our children and their future.

Other candidates lor the Ward 4 Council seat can talk about their commitment to our public schools, but only
one candidate has been there, everyday, through good times and bad times, supporting public education.

to get a little bit of help for are having a hard time pay-
ing the private insurance,"
said Nancy Callanan, a
trustee and member of the
Planning Department.

The guidelines outline
the fund's plan to cover the
insurance as follows:

"The Affordable Hous-
ing Trust Fund will pay for
the cost of private mortgage
insurance. This loan will be
forgiven if the homeowner
lives in the home for five
years.

"If the homeowner sells,
refinances or transfers the
property before five years
from the date of the sale, the
City will prorate the amount

of mortgage insurance costs
duetotheAHTF."

Applicants must be pre-
approved for the mortgage
by one of the three banks
participating in the program
and must meet all 13 of the
program's guidelines.

"We have to train the
banks who are going to be
participating," said Trustee
Nancy Callanan of the Plan-
ning Department.

The banks were chosen
after responding to a Re-
quest for Proposals and their
staff will be trained in mid-
September by teams from
Mass Housing, according to
Fabrizio.

The participating banks
are Bank of Canton, South
Coastal Bank and Rockland
Trust.

Among the 13 guidelines
are the following three:

*Applicants are not eli-
gible is they have had a real
estate equity interest in a
primary residence in the

past three years

*Applicants are not eli-
gible if they have more than
$75 ,000 in assets

*The borrower's total
debt to gross income ra-
tio must not be higher than
41%. (Total debt includes
principal, interest, taxes and
insurance on the property as
well as outstanding loans,
such as student and automo-
bile loans)

Fabrizio said the pro-
gram would not require any
additional city employees as
the banks will provide the
mortgage paperwork.

Under the current rule,
applicants at or under 120%
of the median income may
qualify for the program. He
said that figure is subject to
change.

According to Fabrizio,
120% of the median mcome
levels follow: Household
of one, $69,450; of two,
$79,425; of three, $89325
and of four, $99225.

Interested persons may
contact Fabrizio at 617-376-
1123.

Chairman of the trust is
Planning Director Dennis
Harrington with the follow-
ing members. Donna Acker-
man, Mass Housing Servic-
es; Rev. Sheldon Bennett,

Mayor Tom Koch's cam-
paign Tuesday released
documents showing that
former Mayor Bill Phelan
paid a bill for his $66 mil-
lion Honeywell in 2007 wit-
hout budgeting for it or get-
ting approval from the City
Council, a move that the
independent auditing firm
Powers and Sullivan later
stated "could be considered
fraud."

The $700,000 bill was
paid via a wire transfer in
November 2007, but was
never approved by the
Council or included in any
budget, the Koch campaign
stated in a release Tuesday.
Documents related to the
wire transfer, memos war-

ning about it, and the full
description taken from the
City audit can now be found
on www.mayortomkoch.

Koch said the billing is-
sue "underscores a pattern
of spin and concealment

shows the need for my opp-
onent to stop the dishonest
and negative attacks, and
start talking honestly about
his own record."

"We are out there giving

my opponent's campaign
without making him answer
to his own record."

Koch said that while the
audit's forceful conclusions
have been public for quite
some time, they were not
emphasized at the time of
its release because "we were
more intent on cleaning up
the mess we were left than
assigning responsibility for
it."

To live his life in the world he will have to live in, will require faith and love and courage.

So, World, I wish you would sort of look after him. . . Take him by the hand and teach
him things he will have to know.

But do it gently, if you can.

He will have to learn, I know, that all men are not just, that all men are not true.

But teach him also that for every scoundrel there is a hero. . . that for every crooked
politician there is a great and dedicated leader. ... Teach him that for every enemy there
is a friend.

Steer him away from envy, if you can. . . And teach him the secret of quiet laughter.

to have faith in his own idea^, even if everyone says they are wrong. . . Teach him to be

Adams Family Opposes
New Track At Pageant Field

Members of the Adams
family formally decided
they would not support a
running track in any form at
Pageant Field shortly before
the 2007 city election but
kept the decision private in
an effort to stay out of local
politics, Peter Boylston Ad-
ams said in a televised inter-
view last week.

Adams, who acts as liai-
son between the Presidential
family and the City of Quin-
cy, spoke on Mayor Thomas
Koch's weekly Quincy Ac-
cess Television program
and detailed the family's
position on the future of the
field, which was donated by
the family as part of Merry-
mount Park.

"The family came to con-
clusion with no equivoca-
tion that we would not sup-
port a track at that site," said
Adams, a direct descendent
of President John Adams

and John Quincy Adams.
"It was simply the opinion
of the family that it would
be contrary to the original
intention of Charles Francis
Adams (the family member
who donated the land). We
just felt the views and the
open space would be signifi-
cantly impaired."

The Park and Recreation
Board with the support of
Mayor Koch voted to pre-
serve Pageant Field from
plans to build a track there
shortly after the Mayor took
office last year. Plans are
now proceeding with a track
adjacent to the new Quin-
cy High School on Faxon
Field.

The family made the deci-
sion during an annual meet-
ing held at the "Old House,"
better known to the public as
the Adams National Historic
Park. The decision was not
made public until after the

city election, in which Koch
was elected.

"We wanted to avoid be-
ing put in a position where
we would be making a po-
litical statement rather than
a statement grounded m the
family's opinion on the is-
sue," Adams said.

Pageant Field was part of
parkland donated by Charles
Francis Adams in 1885.

On the television pro-
gram, Adams also talked
about reading old family
diaries about children visit-
ing Pageant Field and the
surrounding area and then
visiting the park himself
soon after.

"It was amazing that I
could stand there on top of
Pageant Field looking out
at Quincy Bay and see this
land exactly how it was de-
scribed in this brief diary en-
try unchanged. That's some-
thing the citizens of Quincy
should be proud of."

For more than five years,
members of the Global Out-
reach Committee at St. Ag-
atha Parish in Milton have
been traveling to St. Rock,
Haiti, to provide medical
and humanitarian assistance
to the impoverished resi-
dents of this rural mountain
village near Port Au Prince.

On Saturday, Sept. 26,
the committee will hold a
benefit to raise money for
the St. Rock Clinic in Haiti.

The fundraiser begins at
7 p.m. at St. Agatha Parish
Hall, 432 Adams St., Mil-
ton.

The evening will include
silent and live auctions,
raffles, light fare and music.
Tickets are $25 each and
can be purchased by email-
ing Mary Gallagher at mgal-
lagherC". stagathapansh.org .
Auction and raffle items are
also needed.

Catherine Liberies, a
registered nurse and board
member of the St. Rock
Haiti Foundation, will be
making her lO"" trip to Haiti
this fall, accompanied by
more than a dozen members
of St. Agatha Parish. While
she is inspired by the many
lives they have saved at the
clinic, she is also haunted
by the memories of chil-
dren who did not survive.
"We had an 8 month old
baby die at the clinic from
a completely treatable in-
fection," Liberies said. "In
Milton or Quincy, the same
symptoms in a child would
have prompted a quick trip
to the pediatrician and a pre-
scription. The source of the
child's infection was likely
contaminated water. This is

the very water that you see
five year old children carry-
ing in two 3 gallon contain-
ers up the mountain in the
90 degree heat."

Bob Kachinsky is a civil
engineer from Quincy with
experience in environmen-
tal water projects. He was
recruited two years ago to
advise the St. Rock clinic
on their system. Although
Kachinsky frequently trav-
els to underdeveloped coun-
tries, he was appalled by
the conditions in St. Rock
and by the lack of sanitary
drinking water in particular.
His initial plan to dig a well
had to be scrapped because
they would be forced to go
to 1,500 feet to find water.
Given the village had no
electricity for a pump, the
plan simply wasn't feasible.
Kachinsky is now advis-
ing the group on alternative
ways to provide safe drink-
ing water to the clinic and
local residents. Liberies
can't wait, noting "the most
important thing you can do
in a third world country is
provide a source of clean
water."

Since members of St. Ag-
atha Parish started volunteer-
ing at the clinic, the number
of patients the medical staff
treats each year has grown
from 600 to 7,000. Liber-
ies admits this rapid growth
has put a severe strain on the
clinic. Her goal is to raise
$50,000 at the September
fundraiser to both complete
work on the water purifica-
tion system and to also build
a small addition to the clinic
and expand physician staff-
ing to five days a week.

Mayoral Candidates Talk Issues At Houghs Neck Forum

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Two political novices
livened up the 2009 mayoral
contest at the Houghs Neck
candidates night last week
when they matched wits
with political rivals, Mayor
Thomas Koch and former
Mayor William Phelan.

The mayoral and school
committee preliminary elec-
tion is Tuesday, Sept. 22.
The final city wide election,
is Tuesday, Nov. 3.

Both newcomers Paul
Turowski, a Quincy po-
lice sergeant, and Joseph
O'Malley, a postal worker,
view their candidacies as
long shots, but, more impor-
tantly, as an opportunity to
shed a different light on the
city's future, problems and
solutions.

The pair did that last
week as they raised ques-
tions about payback to the
city from developers, coast-
line development in Ger-
mantown in place of public
housing, and abatements for
abutters to wind turbines.

"I'm dead set against
being an ATM machine for
the City of Quincy," said
O'Malley who wants the city
to "go after the ones who
owe. Freeze abatements, do
away with the preservation
fund," and look into funding
from non-profit agencies.

"Maybe we can shake
down the developers. We
need a break. Ask them to
refurbish the fire stations,"
O'Malley said, asserting
that the developers, invari-
ably, make a profit in the

city. He later suggested that
developers could at least
"buy chalk for the schools."

Turowski believes there
may some municipal jobs
that could be eliminated and
he called the city's energy
contract with Honeywell "a
big mistake.

"I want to change the
personnel structure in the
city," said Turowski, a 27-
year police veteran. "I've
been fighting the city for 1 3
years."

Brian Laroche, president
of Houghs Neck Commu-
nity Council (HNCC), mod-
erated the event and over
150 observers offered solid
applause after all four can-
didates spoke.

"We created the night so
that it would be a gauge of
the candidates," said Laro-
che, adding, "We were hop-
ing that people would come
without their minds made
up"

However, Koch and
Phelan's supporters filled
the hall in faidy equal num-
bers as they did the streets
and sidewalks leading to St.
Thomas Aquinas Hall prior
to the program.

In some respects, the
front-runners, Koch and
Phelan, rehashed the de-
bates of two years past with
attacks on each other's re-
cord.

• Koch claimed that
Phelan left the sewer and
water fund in disarray and
the city awash in debt from
his credit card mentality and
left some city departments

THOMAS KOCH

in upheaval. "We inherited
a fiscal mess," the mayor
said.

• Phelan charged Koch
with "mismanagement of the
city," said he left $ 1 5 million
in reserves, and, repeatedly,
dubbed the 2007 real estate
tax increase as the largest in
the city's history.

• Koch rebutted the high-
est tax increase claim by cit-
ing a 2003 tax hike, blamed
Phelan for losing millions
in state funding for the
school's building program,
and called Phelan's Hon-
eywell energy agreement a
boondoggle paid for by the
residents,

• Phelan described lay-
offs in the school depanment
and, particulariy, the forced
layoff of veteran firefighters
replaced by five new hires
who had automatic seniority
under Civil Service rules.

Laroche offered each
candidate an opportunity to
answer the eight questions
judged most important by
a survey of Houghs Neck
residents.

While several questions
targeted budget problems
and taxes, residents are.

also, concerned about drug
problems, wind turbines
and developers and unique
Houghs Neck issues.
DRUGS AND
COMMUNITY POLICE

Residents asked about
the reduction in the Houghs
Neck Community Police
program, which was cut
from three officers to one.
The residents also ques-
tioned efforts to combat a
drug problem in the area.

Bill Phelan blamed former Mayor Jim Sheets for

The Patriot Ledger reported in 2003 that 'The
average tax bill will soar nearly 18 percent," two years
after Bill Phelan took office.

Now he's trying to shift blame again for bills he left
on the desk of our new mayor.

Bill Phelan increased spending every year during his

FIRE SAFETY

by Captain Tom Lyons

Firt Prevention Bureau
Quincy Fire Department

Quincy Center Zoning District TVee Inventory

Stay Fire Smart! Don't Get Burned

Fire Prevention week
takes place on Oct. 10'"
through the 16'".

The theme for this year
is "STAY FIRE SMART!
DON'T GET BURNED."
This week was established
to commemorate the Great
Chicago Fire, a conflagra-
tion that killed more than
250 people in October 1 87 1 .
The fire began on the 8™,
while much of the damage
was sustained on the 9™;
100,000 were left homeless
while the fire destroyed more
than 17,400 structures.

According to legend, a
cow belonging to Mrs Cath-
erine O'Leary kicked over
a lamp igniting the contents
of her bam. While historians
believe the fire started in the
vicinity of Mrs O'Leary 's
bam, over fime, some be-
lieve the cow has taken a
bad rap, adding doubt to this
legend.

In 1920, President Wood-
row Wilson issued the first
National Fire Prevention
Day proclamation, while
Oct. 9' ", the date of the worst
sustained damage from this

fire, is always within the
dates of observance for this
week. Fire Prevention Week
is the longest running public
health and safety observance
on record, (taken from a
NFPA Press Release)

The Quincy Fire Depart-
ment will observe the intent
of this week by holding an
Open House at Fire Head-
quarters, 40 Quincy Ave.,
between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
on Oct. 10th. All are wel-
come while there will be ex-
hibits and demonstrations of
interest for both adults and
children.

We enthusiastically en-
courage all to attend while
various agencies will be
present to answer any ques-
tions you or your children
may have.

I've frequently written
about our underlying op-
timistic wish that tragedy
can't find us. Our frustra-
tions as firefighters occurs,
where we have witnessed
the tragedy of fire, the dev-
astation, both in lives lost
and property loss, and real-
ize that it can.

Through educafion in
general, and through out-
reach programs such as the
upcoming open house, we
attempt to bridge the gap be-
tween that optimistic wish
that says it can't happen
here, and the reality of our
experience which conveys
that it can, but this is all you
have to do to minimize its
occurrence or the impact if
it does.

Therefore, please join
us as we observe Fire Pre-
vention Week, be part of
our efforts to "STAY FIRE
SMART!" Come share in
this educational effort while
sharing in some lighthearted
fire department fun.

The fire apparatus will
be on display for children.
Sparky will make an appear-
ance as well.

We are here to serve you,
while this effort is one more
attempt at doing so. Please
join us in this proacfive ef-
fort towards a safer commu-
nity.

We look forward to meet-
ing you, and sharing in this
day. See you on the 10™!

The City of Quincy De-
partment of Planning and
Community Development
is conducting a survey of
street and other public trees
located within the Quincy
Center Zoning District with
the help of Susan Karim, an
Intern from the Landscape
Architecture Department
at the Boston Architectural
College.

The survey will cata-
log a number of features
and conditions of the trees
in the district. Information
gathered will be linked to a
Global Information System
(GIS) map, showing the lo-
cations of the trees and al-
lowing for the information
to be accessed by clicking
on each location.

The GIS mapping will be
available to the Quincy Park
& Forestry and Engineering
Departments for monitor-
ing the urban forest and can
eventually be expanded to

other areas of the City.

The American Planning
Association (APA) has pub-
lished a number of articles
on Urban Forestry and the
importance of trees in urban
situations. According to the
APA, both Philadelphia and
New York City have recent-
ly conducted Tree Counts
and use the data collected
to set priorities for their tree
collections. In those city ar-
eas with blank canopies or
with concentrations of trees
in poor condition will be the
first to be addressed.

"The Planning Depart-
ment's interest in trees is as-
sociated with our promotion
of 'green' development,"
said Dennis E. Harrington,
Planning Director.

"My administration is
committed to 'green de-
velopment'," said Mayor
Thomas P. Koch.

"Trees absorb atmo-
spheric carbon, and there-

fore, an urban forest can be
used to reduce the carbon
footprint of the City."

The Planning Depart-
ment also believes that trees
may someday be used for
carbon trading as that mar-
ket evolves.

Studies show that trees
in an urban area can reduce
the cost of air conditioning;
mitigate human discomfort;
and improve air quality.

In addition. Environ-
mental Protection Agency
stormwater permits allow
cities to use urban forests as
part of their best practices.
Trees reduce runoff and
they can reduce water treat-
ment costs by up to seven
percent.

As wildlife habitat, urban
forests provide residents the
opportunity to see birds,
butterflies, and other small
creatures. Such contact with
nature is an amenity that is
a long under-rated public
health benefit.

Phelan said he would
seek public input and com-
munity involvement and
make "sure some revenues
go back into Houghs Neck"
"if the community is not
in favor of it, it's not some-
thing we'll support," said
Koch of the MWRA pro-
posal .

Phelan rebuked the cur-
rent administration for lay-

ers and keeping new hires as
well as for cutting available
services, such as the rescue

Cahill Bid
For Governor

Com d From Page I
ams Inn in North Quincy.

Cahill had been strongly
considering a gubernatorial
bid as an independent can-
didate. Speculation was fu-
eled after the state treasurer
officially changed his party
affiliation from Democrat to
unenrolled in July.

Cahill would become the
fourth candidate to officially
declare a run for governor
in 2010. Other candidates
are incumbent Gov. Deval
Patnck, a Democrat; and
Republicans Christy Mihos
and Charlie Baker.

By changing his party
affiliation from Democrat
to unenrolled, Cahill would
avoid a primary election and
be on the final election bal-
lot next November.

Cahill, age 50, who
once owned a small cafe in
Quincy Center, began his
climb up the political ladder
as a Quincy city councillor
at-large in 1987. He was
re-elected seven terms and
served until 2003.

Cahill received a bache-
lor of arts degree in political
science from Boston Uni-
versity in 1981 He and his
wife Tina have four children
and live in Quincy.

Firefighters
To Mark 9/11

Cont 'd From Page 1

Firefighters will roll their
apparatus out of the stations
at 9:45 a.m. Friday and stand
at attention until 10 a.m.
when chimes are sounded
commemorating the call to
New York's fire stations to
the burning World Trade
Center towers.

The flag will be lowered
to half staff for a moment
of silence during the cer-
emony.

Each fire station will
mark the time and the hour
with a special ceremony at
fire department headquar-
ters where Rev. John Menz.
Chaplain, will offer an invo-
cation.

Residents are invited to
attend the ceremonies in
any area of the city or pause
when the sounds of the
chimes fill the morning.

In addition, Phelan said
the city's dual 911 system
should be streamlined as the
duplicate effort costs tax-
payers thousands of dollars
that could be channeled to
manpower and equipment.

"We have to live within
our budget," Koch said of
the reductions, then fired
back at Phelan regarding the
911 system, "You had six
years to change the response
system (and didn't)."

"A city that's not grow-
ing is dying," O'Malley
said, but also worried, "I'd
like to know about the hid-

once again that developers

"What you don't want
to do is stop growth," said
Phelan who believes that
the developers should be
required to guarantee the
bonds raised by the city for
infrastructure.

Turowski deplored the

over-abundance of condo-

A Job Well Done

On Sunday, Aug. 27, 2009, at approximately 1 1:30
p.m., Officers James Flaherty and Tom Ford were dis-
patched to "a larceny of bicycles" call in the area of
Ridgeway Street and Frank-
lin Avenue.

Upon amval. Officer
Ford questioned a witness,
who stated that he saw three
young males, wearing back-
packs, take two bicycles off
a neighbor's porch. The wit-
ness also stated that only one
of the suspects was riding a
bicycle at the time as they
appeared to be canvassing
homes.

The two suspects without
bicycles then walked up to the victim's home, entered
the porch and then exited with the bikes on their shoul-
ders, while the other suspect acted as a look-out. When
the suspects entered the porch, the witness called,
"91 1 ." The suspects rode off towards Rice Road. The
witness then went to the victim's home and informed
her of the incident.

Officers John McGowan and Keith Wilbur respond-
ed to the general area to help in the search. Officer
McGowan located three males meeting the description
of the suspects on Quincy Shore Drive across from Sa-
chem Street.

As he stopped suspect 1 , the other two fled on bikes
toward Rice Road. Officer Keith Wilbur caught up to
the other two suspects and detained them near Rice
Road. During this time, Officer Ford interviewed the
victim, who stated that two Specialized brand moun-
tain bikes, one red and the other black, along with a
bicycle tire foot pump had been stolen from her un-
locked, three season porch.

Officer McGowan 's suspect was operating a
red Specialized mountain bike that had a bicycle foot
pump in a back pack.

Officer Wilbur's suspects were riding a black Spe-
cialized mountain bike and a red Fuji mountain bike.
Based on this information, the officers brought the
suspects and the bikes back to the scene of the crime,
where the victim confirmed that two of the bikes and
the pump were hers. She did not recognize the Fuji
bicycle. After getting a look at the suspects, the wit-
ness stated he was 100 percent sure the three suspects
were the same ones that walked out of the drive-
way and rode off up the street.

The three suspects, 15, 16 and 17 year olds from
Boston, were charged with Breaking and Entering
in the Night-time with the Intent to commit Felo-
ny and Larceny of property over $250. The Fuji bi-
cycle is at the Police station awaiting the owner.

Nice Work!

Home Opener Friday At Veterans Stadium

Presidents Kick Off
Season Against Cohasset

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Presidents
2009 football season will
officially kickoff on Friday
night (7 p.m.) at Veterans
Memorial Stadium against
Cohasset High School. For
second-year head coach Bill
Reardon and his team, this
game will also begin a new
chapter playing in the Pa-
triot League.

Last year, Quincy was
part of the Patriot League's
Keenan Division, this sea-
son, the Presidents have
moved into the league's
Fisher Division. It is a move
that now places Quincy in
line to battle for a spot at the
end of the season in the Di-
vision 111 playoffs.

In 2009, the Fisher Divi-
sion includes Quincy. Ha-
nover HS, Middleboro HS,
Rockland HS, Pembroke HS
and Randolph HS.

"We have switched di-
visions this season, but the
competition is still going to
be tough every week," said
Reardon last week. "Teams
like Hanover and Rockland
are good teams and they
should present some chal-
lenges to my team. Five
teams, besides us, will be
fighting for a Division III
playoff spot and we will
need to be ready to compete
each time we take the field.
It all starts for us against
Cohasset."

The Presidents finished
last season with a 5-6 record
and lost their top-five scor- .
ers to graduation, so accord-
ing to Reardon, this year the
team is going to need some
of its returning players to
pick up the slack, both from
a football standpoint and
leadership standpoint.

"We only have about 38
varsity players on the roster
this fall, so we are going to
need our seniors and upper-
classmen to pick up some
of the slack and production
that we lost to graduation,"
he said. "1 am not exactly
sure why the numbers are so
low, although enrollment is
down at the high school, but
this comes in cycles. Hope-
fully once the new high
school is completed, we will
see more kids coming out to
play ball, and we do have a
large and talented freshmen
team, so our future is bright
and hopefully next year we
are right back to having
depth in numbers.

"But we have some
real talented kids back this
year and as long as we
stay healthy, which will be
the key to our season, we
should field a very competi-
tive team."

On offense this fall, the
Presidents do return senior
quarterback Lance Peter-
son. Heading into his final

year under center, Reardon
expects Peterson to take the
next step in his progression
as a field general and team
leader.

"(He) was very good last
year and he is smart, which
is what you look for in your
quarterback. He is a team
captain this year and is one
of 12 seniors on the team.
With Lance, I feel comfort-
able with his decision-mak-
ing with the football. He and
1 tend to see similar things
when it comes to opposing
defenses and he has the per-
fect personality to play that
position. We should be in
good shape there."

Peterson, who last year
had a number receiver
in Anthony Raddatz (ten
touchdowns), will have a
new number one target this
fall in Ngozi Aguguo and
Reardon sees the potential
for these two to have a huge
and producfive year work-
ing together.

"We will be looking for
Lance to throw to Aguguo
quite a bit this year. He has
some big shoes to fill in re-
gards to matching the pro-
duction we got out of Radd-
atz, and that will not come
easy, but the coaching staff
thinks that he will be a huge
player for us this year."

Behind Peterson in the
backfield. two seniors will
do most of the work running
the ball. James Nguyen and
Kenny Nguyen are expected
to provide depth and leader-
ship at this position. Both
have the ability to break a
big play and both are good
leaders on the field.

"At running back, I am
expecting James and Kenny
Nguyen to handle most of
the work. I am looking to
them to provide leadership
and give us production.
They are both team captains
and both are very good foot-
ball players.

"With the passing ability
of Lance and the running of

James and Kenny we should
be able to mix it up on of-
fense and do a little of both
throwing the ball and run-
ning the ball. 1 have to do a
good job of switching it up
depending on the defenses
we see each week because
we have the ability to do
both very well."

The offensive line, the
backbone of any successful
offensive scheme, will be
anchored by senior center
Rich Friedman. Friedman
gained experience last year
as a starter and he will be
expected to lead a young
and inexperienced O-Line.

"We are counting on the
0-Line to help keep our
offense on the field. Rich
gained some experience
last year when he started on
Thanksgiving against North
Quincy. 1 am looking to him
at that position to be a leader
because it may take the rest
of the 0-Line some time to
put the pieces together."

On defense, the Presi-
dents will be utilizing speed
over bulk.

"Last year we used a lot
of 3-4 defense (three defen-
sive linemen, four lineback-
ers), but this season you
may see more of a 3-5 de-
fense," Reardon said. "We
are makmg this switch be-
cause we do not have a lot
of big linemen talking the
halls. We are going to put as
many athletes on the field
as we can and try and take
advantage of their speed and
quickness."

One player to keep an
eye on is junior middle line-
backer Akim Hey wood.

"We need a monster sea-
son out of Hey wood," said
Reardon. "'He is a variable
that we are counting on this
season. His play is going to
determine how well our de-
fensive scheme plays out."

Other players to watch on
defense this year are Agu-

22 Seniors Lead Veteran Team

North Quincy Looking
To Make Noise

By SEAN BRENNAN

The North Quincy Red
Raiders will open their 2(J()9
season on the road Friday
night (7 p.m.) against Bos-
ton Latin School. This year s
team, under the direction ot
head coach Jim Connor, will
be looking to continue its
string of winning seasons,
with the ultimate goal of
making a run at a Division
2 A playoff spot.

North Quincy will be
playing this season in the
Patriot League's Keenan
Division after playing last
year in the league's Fisher
Division. This change in
divisions places the Raiders
in competition with some of
the best teams on the South
Shore.

In 2009, the Patriot
League's Keenan Division
includes North Quinc>,
Duxbury HS. Silver Lake
Regional HS, Scituate HS.
Hingham HS and Whitman-
Hanson HS.

"There is a significant
difference in the two divi-
sions," said Connor last Fri-
day. "Both the Fisher and
the Keenan Divisions have
some talented teams with
great football programs, so
we are going to have to plav
well and focus on one game
at a time in order to be suc-
cessful .

"This year in order for us
to make a run at the play-
offs from our division we
are going to be facing some
tough teams like Duxbury
(10-0 overall last year). Sil-
ver Lake and Hingham We
cannot look ahead and we
need to be prepared to play
hard every week. It will be a
challenge all season long."

For the Red Raiders, the
outcome of this season is
going to come down to how
well the team's large senior
class (22 of them' plays. The
team returns three of its top-
five scorers off last sear's
6-5 team, ineiudunj quarter-
back Mike Stanton, runnmg
back Terrence Stale) and
wide receiver Paul Reamer,
and Connor sees the poten-
tial for a third straight win-
ning season after ten con-
secutive losing seasons.

"Our approach this
year will be the same as it
has been the previous two
years." he said. "We will be
prepared for each game and
the expectations are that we
will win the games that we
should win and we will not
back dow n in the games that
may present additional chal-
lenges.

"Knowing my team and
knowing this senior class
vse will be in e\er\ game v\e

on last year's 6-5 record and
hopefully we can finish this
year with a winning record
That IS one of our goals."

A strength for North
Quincy this season should
be the play of the offense
Senior quarterback Mike
Stanton returns for his tinul
season at the helm and Con-
nor sees in him the potential
tt) have another great \ear

"".Mike IS an excellent
player at the most impor-
tant position on the held and
he has all the intanglble^ ti'
be a great field general for
us,"' Connor said. "\V hat he
needs to be sure he does this
year is be a vocal leader As
t)ne of our team captains, he
needs to have that "refuse to
lose' attitude and he needs
to keep that competitive
edge and be an example for
the younger guys "

Stanton will receive sup-
port from fellovN captain
Terrence Staley. who will
handle the majority o\ the
work at running back Sta-
ley IS coming off a season in
which he scored live touch-
douns and uirned himselt
into a big play running
back.

Terrence will have a
productive season lor us,"
Connor said. "We have some
depth at the skill positions,
including running back.
with Staley being joined by
juniors Sheyi Stdesuyan and
Mike Curran and senior Bri-
an Donaghey It should be an
advantage for us to be able
to give guys a rest during
the course of games w ithout
really losing a step."

When Stanton kx>ks to
pass this season he will
have a threat in senii^r F*aul
Reamer. Reamer >coreJ iv^ >

touchdowns last year and he
should continue to improve
on those stats this year

On the offensive line,
the Raiders should be solid.
Senior captains AJ Morfe
and .Mike Benoit and senior
Owen Kilcullen anchor a
veteran core

"We lost some key guys
off of our O-Line. but with
the return ot Woric. Benoit
and Kilcullen. we should be
able to control the line oi
scrimmage and keep oppos
ing deteiises on the held."
said Connor "If v\e can give
Stanton time in the pocket to
throw to guys like Reamer
and it v\e can open holes
for our running backs, our
offense should be able to
contn^l the cKuk and keep
defenses on their heels "

On detense. which this
year in under the direction ol
veteran coach Ken .McPhee.
the Raiders should he strong
at the linebacker .md sec^
ondary positions Playing
at inside linebacker, seniors
Colin Hayes and Brian
Donaghey are starters Kii
cullen will play at oinside

ented secondary

Reamer will start at free
safety and will be joined by
junu)rs .Mike .\lorr!st)n and

"Defensively, our motto
IS to have 1 1 hats on the
ball." said C\innor "We
preach to oui defense to try
and limit big plays With the
players we have at lineback-
er and with the athletes we
have in the secondary, we
should be tough to move the

son for Connor, his
coaching staff and his team
is to get off to a good start,
and that begins on Friday
against non-league oppo-
nent Boston Lafin School.

"We have scouted them
all pre-season long and will
be ready to go on Friday,"
Connor said. "We have lost
three season-openers in a
row and the key is to get
off to a strong start. We fin-
ished last year at 6-5, but at

one point we were 6-2, go-
ing 5-1 in the middle of the
schedule, so it is important,
especially playing in the
Keenan Division this year,
to start off with a win."

Under the direction of
Connor, the Red Raiders
have consistently played the
game the right way. For two
straight seasons the team has
been recognized by league
coaches with the Team
Sportsmanship Award, and
this is something he hopes
continues this year.

"We look for not only
good football players but
good people both on and
off the field. I like players
that are tough, the type of
person you would want on
your side in a street fight.
We have been successful the
last two seasons with this at-
titude and that is our hope in
2009.

"This will be a challeng-
ing season, but we believe
that we will be ready to go
when the season gets going
next week."

guo (safety), Kenny Nguy-
en (comerback) and James
Nguyen (linebacker).

"A lot of our offensive
starters are also going to be
key on defense," Reardon
added. "Aguguo will be a
huge player for us, and Ken-
ny is as good as they come
playing at comerback. And
James plays a solid line-
backer and has been great at
forcing tumovers. If we can
utilize our speed on defense
we should force some tum-
overs and get our offense

back on the field."

Coming into his second
year leading the Presidents,
Reardon's expectations are
to improve on last year's re-
cord and to make a serious
mn at a post-season berth.

"It all starts with us be-
ing healthy, if we get hurt,
all bets are off. If we play
like we are capable then we
should have the potential to
be in the mix for a playoff
berth.

"I look for a player who
is a tough kid and who isn't
afraid to hit someone. I

don't care how big or small
they are as long as they are
a tough kid who is will-
ing to work hard and make
sacrifices for the team. If
we have a team of unselfish
and disciplined players then
we should achieve the goals
that we set out at the begin-
ning of the pre-season.

"Look for us to come to
play each week. I am not
sure how many wins or loss-
es we will end with, but this
team will play hard and will
be exciting to watch."

(NAPS)- While you
can't stop time, you can
keep your face from reflect-
ing your age. Here are a few
hints on how:

Skin Care Smarts

• The experts at the U.S.
Centers for Disease Control
(CEXT) say one of the best
ways to protect your skin
is to stay out of the sun. Ul-
traviolet light causes deep
wrinkles; dry, rough skin;
liver spots and serious disor-
ders such as skin cancer. Try
to avoid the sun between 10
a.m. and 4 p.m. Wear wide-
brimmed hats and sunglass-
es and use sunscreen with a
sun protection factor (SPF)
greater than 15. Apply it
liberally 20 minutes before
going out and reapply every
two hours or after being in
water.

• Don't smoke. Smoking

accelerates skin aging and
increases wrinkles. It nar-
rows blood vessels in the
skin, which decreases blood
flow, depleting the skin of
oxygen and nuidents, such
as vitamin A. It also dam-
ages the fibers and collagen
that give skin strength and
elasticity.

• Wash your skin gen-
tly. The CDC says to wash
your face with soap or mild
cleanser and water in the
morning, evening and after
exercising. Use warm water;
hot water removes oils from
your skin.

• Pat dry. After washing
or bathing, gently pat or blot
your skin dry with a towel
so some moisture remains
on the skin. Moisturize im-
mediately to seal in natural
moisture levels.

ORAL CANCER SCREENING

While some regard the inci- to have regular screenings for

dence of oral cancer as rare,
the Oral Cancer Foundation
reports that about 1(X) people
In the United States are newly
diagnosed with this fonm of can-
cer each day. Fortunately, early
diagnosis arxJ treatment greatly
inaease the chances of surviv-
al. With this in mid, dentists rec-
Iommend oral cancer screenings
once a year for all patients, twice
a year for smokers. Aside from a
visual exam, oral cancer screen-
ings also Involve the use of a
device known as a VELscope, a
handfieW instrument that emits
a blue light tfiat reveals any
abnormalities that may exist be-
neath the surface of the gums,
tongue, and other soft tissues of
the mouth. The painless exam
takes aboU two minutes.

NOT A LEG TO STAND ON

It can be quite disconcerting and diagnosis be done. There

I fiviyone, without regard to age tkxi with a regular tootthdean-
lor gender, it is very important mg and check-up.

when a leg becomes weak, numb,
or painful. Unlike the temporary
numbness of a leg that has "fallen
asleep," continuing numbness
can compromise one's ability
to perform everyday functions
and tasks such as walking and
driving a car. Limb weakness
can be even more disturbing
as heaviness in the leg creates
the feeling of having to drag
the leg along when walking or
climbing stairs. As far as leg pain
is concerned, it is important to
discern whether it is constant or
intermittent, dull or severe, and
affected by leg position. Once
these symptoms are made clear
to the chiropractor, diagnosis and
treatment of the nerve responsible
can be undertaken.

The most important thing
when dealing with numbness in the
legs is that a correct examination

are a variety of different reasons
why you can have leg numbness.
The conditions we address
are as varied and as vast as
the nervous system itself. At
the FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC, our goal
is not merely to bring relief to
your pain, but to identify and
correct the source of it as well.
We're currently accepting new
patients and welcome you to
call 617.472.4220 to schedule
an appointment. We're located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass., we can offer you
exceptional chiropractic service.
PS. Compression or pressure
on any of the nerve roots in
the low back can cause pain,
numbness, or weakness along the
nerves that pass down through
the leg and into the foot.

Asthma Can
Appear at Any Age

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I am 47, and my doctor tells
me I have asthma. Is that
possible? I thought it was a
children's disease. One of the
medicines the doctor put me
on is a cortisone-type inhal-
er. This has me scared silly. I
don't want to stay on a corti-
sone medicine for life. I have
heard it does too many bad
things. What do you have to
say about this? - MX.

ANSWER: Asthma can
make an appearance at any
age. The incidence of it peaks
between the ages of 4 and 10,
and again in the 40s. It's not
only a childhood illness.

During an asthma attack,
the airways (bronchi) narrow
because the muscles wrapped
around them go into spasm.
That makes it hard for air to
get into and out of the lungs.
Added to the airway constric-
tion is an outpouring of thick
mucus within the airways, an-
other obstruction to the flow of
air through these passages.

For an acute asthma at-
tack, medicines that relax the
muscles wrapped around the
airways are used, most often
delivered via an inhaler. The
onset of action of these medi-
cines is quick, but their dura-
tion is only about four to six
hours. So it Is also important to
administer to asthmatics medi-
cines that la.st longer.

Inhaled cortisone medicines
are such drugs, and they're
essential for asthma control.
They soothe irritated airways
and. prevent the contraction
of airway muscles. They also
prevent the prtxluction of thick
mucus, it can take up to four
weeks before the effect of these
medicines is appreciated.

Inhaled cortisone doesn't

cause the serious side effects
that prolonged use of oral and
injectable cortisone can. Your
health isn't going to be in dan-
ger from its use. Your health is
going to improve with its use.
You might not have to use it
for life.

The asthma booklet gives
a detailed explanation of this
common condition and its
treatment. Readers can obtain a
copy by writing: Dr. Donohue

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:

Enclosed is an ad for vitamin
B-4. Is it as good as the ad
says? - LJF.

ANSWER: Sometime in
the past, scientists thought
there was a vitamin B-4
whose lack was responsible
for slow growth in animals. It
was called adenine. Adenine
is real, but it's not a vitamin.
It's the building material for
DNA and RNA. It's found in
many foods. You don't need a

supplement of it.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
When my 68-year-old hus-
band exercises, he smells like
rotten onions. He claims that
deodorants and antiperspi-
rants are harmful. He says
you need to let your armpits
breathe. 1 say he's wrong. -
Anon.

ANSWER: Many people
believe that deodorants and
antiperspirants are harmful.
I'm not one of them. Armpits
don't breathe. The lungs do.

Your husband can wash un-
der the arms before and after
exercising. Skin bacteria cause
the odor, not sweating.

Dr. Donohue ref^rets that he is
imahle to answer individual let-
ters, hut he will incorporate them
in his column whenever possible.
Readers may write him or request
an order form of available health
newsletters at P.O. Box 536475.

tober 22) You still might want
to do more investigating before
taking on a new commitment.
Later would not be the time to

try to fill in any crucial gaps in
what you need to know about it.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) A new opportunity
should be carefully studied. It
might offer some of the things
you've been looking for. Or it
could contain new possibilities
you never considered. Check it
out.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) You might
have to work harder this week to
get people to listen to what you
have to say. But if you stay with
it, you could start to get your
message out to many by the
week's end.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Although fam-
ily matters again take up a big
chunk of the Goat's time, the
week also offers a chance to ex-
plore a new career move you'd
been contemplating for a while.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Applying your
practicality (what does it offer
me?) and your creativity (how
can I improve on it?) could pro-
vide sound reasons for seriously
considering that new offer.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) The single set will find that
keeping their romantic aspira-
tions on high gives Cupid a bet-
ter target to aim at. Paired Pisces
will find that this week helps re-
inforce their relationships.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

believe in encouraging others
to demand the best from them-
selves. You would be a fine
sports coach, as well as an en-
lightened teacher.

BUSINESS

Total Attraction Dance Studio
Under New Ownership

Total Attraction Dance
Center, located at 152
Franklin St. in Quincy Cen-
ter, which has been in busi-
ness for more than 40 years ,
is under new ownership

Former owner Fran-
ces Jancaterino recently
sold the business to Laurie
O'Connell-Graf, one of her
former students.

"In a way this was like
having a 30-year job inter-
view," said O'Connell-Graf,
a lifelong Quincy resident
who has been teaching for
Total Attraction since she
was a teenager "I plan on
keeping the standards high
for our dancers just as Ms.
Frances always did but of
course would like to put my
own stamp on the studio."

O'Connell-Graf is off to
a great start.

One week after taking
ownership of the studio, five
of her dancers got to strut
their stuff in a movie being
filmed locally.

"It was a wonderful op-
portunity for my dancers to
team up with children from
other local programs like
Children's Comer, a dance,
drama and voice studio for
children on the South Shore.
We were very proud, espe-
cially when the director told
us how impressed he was
with our dancers."

Bank Of Canton
Donates $1^00
ToQMCWalk

The Bank of Canton has
donated $,1500 to the Quin-
cy Medical' Center to help
support QMC's amiual Can-
cer Walk scheduled Sunday,
Sept. 27 at Pageant Field in
Merry mount Park, armounc-
es Bank Resident and CEO
Stephen Costello.

The QMC Cancer Walk
benefits the Marie A. Curry
Fund, a permanently en-
dowed fund at QMC sup-
porting free cancer screen-
ings, educational programs,
medical equipment and
outreach to the South Shore
community.

"Quincy Medical Center
plays a critical role in mak-
ing sure the residents of the
South Shore receive the
comprehensive healthcare
they need," said Bob Curry,
chairman of the QMC Board
of Directors and the QMC
Cancer Walk.

Costello said, "At Bank
of Canton, we value op-
portunities to support or-
ganizations that share our
commitment to community
betterment through involve-
ment. The QMC Cancer
Walk is a tremendous event
that encourages preven-
tion and early detection of
cancer for women and men
throughout the South Shore
area. We are proud to lend
our support to such a worthy
cause and organization," he
added.

This month, the two
groups are teaming up once
again as they were asked to
perform in Boston for the
premiere of the move Fame.

"It is great to give these
girls such incredible op-
portunities. I hope that by
continuing to expand our
connections with locally
talented groups, we will be
able to present our dancers
with a well-rounded ap-
proach to performing arts,"
O'Connell-Graf said.

Part of that expansion
includes Ann Ryan, the can-
tor for St. Ann's Church in
Quincy and local performer,
who will be offering voice
lessons on site.

O'Connell-Graf is put-
ting her stamp on the studio
in other ways as well. This
fall, every student who reg-
isters has the opportunity
to submit an idea for a new
name for Total Attraction.
The winning name will be
announced in December,
and the wirmer will receive
three months of free tuition.

Total Attraction is a small-
er studio than some others in
the area but O'Connell-Graf
says that suits her just fine.

"We are not a factory that
is satisfied with turning out
mediocre dancers. We have
a highly qualified teaching
staff that prefers to know
each dancer and his or her
family very well.

"It is about quality not
quantity for us."

The studio is also adding
a variety of fitness programs
for both their dancers and the
community. The studio will
have three fitness experts on
staff who have come up with
a very well-rounded and fun
program which will include
a "Super Fit Kids " program,
Zumba, yogalates (a yoga
and pilates mix) and Boot
Camp among other things.

"I feel very blessed for
the opportunity to carry on
the tradition of excellence
and after all the work of
getting the studio organized
this summer, 1 honestly just
can't wait to get back into
the studio with my dancers
again."

Peter Boylston Adams Guest Speaker At Lecture Hall Ceremony

Education, Adams Legacy Message At QHS Hall Dedication

By JOE REARDON

When John Quincy Ad-
ams was 80-years-old, he
took his grandson Henry's
hand and walked a mile with
him to school in sweltering
heat. Henry was in no mood
for school that day, but that
mattered little to Adams.

The sixth president of the
United States, as the story
goes, walked Henry into
the classroom and led him
straight to his desk. Adams
knew the value of education
and learning, and was deter-
mined to instill his beliefs in
young Henry.

"The message was, 'Hen-
ry, this is where you belong.
This is important,'" said
School Superintendent Dr.
Richard DeCristofaro, who
recounted the story. "The
family really had a mission

Those with a taste for both
chocolate and diamonds can
combine these two favorites into
one pleasing package. Chocolate
diamonds combine all the usual traits
of diamond with an unusual color.
The deeper the chocolate color, the
more desirable and expensive the
gemstone is likely to be. Aside from
chocolate, there is cognac (deep
reddish orange hue) and Champagne
(warm, golden brown), as well as
clove (olive brown) and cinnamon
(light brown). The most popular
designs utilizing chocolate diamonds
consist of a chocolate diamond at
the center of the piece, surrounded
by white diamonds, or vice versa.
Chocolate diamonds also pair
particularly well with aquamarine,
which symbolizes a happy marriage.

In fact, aquamarine/chocolate!
diamond rings are currently quite]
popular.

Cashman To Invest $5 Million

Finance Committee

Clears TIF Agreement

For Robotics Firm

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Bluefin Robotics is half-
way to leasing its new home
on the Fore River in Quincy
now that city councillors
have thrown down the wel-
come mat.

The Finance Commit-
tee headed by chairman
John Keenan voted Mon-
day to approve a tax incen-
tive agreement (TIF) with
Bluefin's potential landlord,
Fall River Marine Terminal,
LLC.

The Cambridge-based
Bluefin Robotics and the
New England Aquarium,
both agreed to lease space
at the Fore River Shipyard
provided the city approve a
tax incentive plan wiu. sav-
ings passed along to them.
They should move in by Oc-
tober 2010.

The TIF agreement must
now be approved by the City
Council.

As part of the TIF agree-
ment. Fall River Marine
owned by Jay Cashman will
invest $5 million in real es-
tate improvements at the
former Fore River shipyard
site and the tenants, Bluefin
and the aquarium, will give
Quincy residents, local con-
tractors, and vendors prior-
ity on contracts and jobs.

In return, the city will

exempt the owner from in-
creases in the property's val-
uation due to the anticipated
$5 million in real estate im-
provements.

The exemptions apply
only to the increased taxes
from the property improve-
ment and begin with a 75%
exemption on the improve-
ments in the first year.

The exemptions are,
then, reduced on a sliding
scale annually from 75% to
a 5% break in the 20th year,
the last year of the agree-
ment. The savings must be
passed on to the property's
tenants.

Over the 20-year period,
taxes on the property, un-
der the TIF agreement, will
increase from $160,030 to
$323,411 annually for a to-
tal of over $5.3 million, ac-
cording to statistics prepared
by New England Economic
Development Corp.

Without the $5 million
in improvement, the taxes
would only increase by $4.3
million over the 20-year pe-
riod, almost $1 million less.

Planning Director Nick
Verenis introduced the pro-
posal Monday after describ-
ing efforts to draw attrac-
tive tenants to the shipyard
which he described as a
"blighted eyesore."

Alan Perrault, Vice Pres-
ident at Cashman, said the
company will employ about
80 persons offering good-
paying white and blue col-
lar jobs while David Kelly,
chief executive of Bluefin
said the new location should
"set the stage for future
growth" of the company.

Walter Flaherty, CFO,
New England Aquarium,
said the project at the ship-
yard was critically important
to the group's mission and,
at a future date, there may
be opportunities for school
children to visit the site.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi described
the plans for the property
enthusiastically, citing the
jobs for Quincy Point and
the city and said. "We look
forward to the development
of the larger parcel that Mr.
Quirk owns.

City Council will meet
Tuesday. Sept. 29.

Keenan, Delahunt To Receive

Good Scout Award Oct. 8

At Granite Links Breakfast

The Boston Minuteman
Council, Boy Scouts of
America has selected two
community leaders from
Quincy to receive the 2009
"Good Scout" Award. This
year's recipients - Council-
lor John Keenan and Cong.
William Delahunt - will
be honored at a breakfast
Thursday, Oct. 8 at the
Granite Links Golf Club in
Quincy.

The award recognizes

the recipient's commitment
to living their daily lives
through Scouting values and
to their significant contribu-
tions to their community.

The breakfast will ben-
efit scouting in the City of
Quincy and the Boston Min-
uteman Council, Boy Scouts
of America.

For information about
attending the breakfast, or
sponsorship opportunities,
call Harold Pinkham at 61 7-

They are not a political party, per se, but they have be-
come the biggest voting bloc in Quincy.

But just barely.

That bloc is the number of registered unenrolled voters
here.

Last November, the number of unenrolled voters in
Quincy surpassed the number of Democrats for the first time
in the city's history, according to statistics from the Quincy
Election Department.

And the latest figures show unenrolled voters have main-
tained their lead but their margin has dwindled.

According to the breakdown of eligible voters last No-
vember, there were 56,364 registered voters in Quincy. Of
that figure, unenrolled numbered 25,170 - 285 more than
the second largest group which is Democrats which listed
24,885 voters. Republicans were third with 5,966. All other
parties and designations totaled 343.

The latest statistics show unenrolled voters still have the
top spot but the gap has narrowed.

As of Sept. 2, the total number of all registered voters
in Quincy was 55,032. Of that number, there are 24,625
unenrolled voters (44.7 percent), 24,576 registered Demo-
crats (44.6 percent) and 5,535 registered Republicans (10
percent). So there are only 49 more unenrolled voters than
Democrats.

The other one percent is comprised of registered voters
representing two recognized minor parties and more than a
dozen political designations. Those minor parties are Liber-
tarian (147 registered voters) and Green Rainbow (76 reg-
istered voters).

Voters in designations include Green Party USA (8 vot-
ers). Veteran Party America (4) and America First Party (2
voters).

City Clerk Joseph Shea said he is not
surprised by this trend of voters not align-
ing with the major political parties.

"Most new voters are registering as un-
enrolled," Shea says. "Voters are becom-
ing more and more independent thinkers
and I don't believe the (political) party
structure is as strong as it used to be."

This trend toward "voter independence" can be traced
over the past decade or so.

Just 10 years ago, the city listed 50,437 registered voters
and Democrats were clearly the dominant party. In 1999,
there were 25,932 registered Democrats or 51.4 percent
of all voters in Quincy. Unenrolled voters totaled 17,639
or 34.9 percent and Republicans 6,533 (12.9 percent). The
other one percent were scattered among fringe parties and
designations.

But the trend towards more voters selecting unenrolled
status appeared to gain momentum about four years ago
when Democrats began losing their advantage.

Voter statistics for 2005 in Quincy show there were
54,899 total registered voters. Of that number. Democrats
numbered 25,490 (46.4 percent) and uneru-olled had 22,422
(40.8 percent). Republicans were again third with 6,508 or
11.8 percent).

Minor parties/designations still represented about one
percent of all registered voters.

Some political observers believe new voters opt for un-
enrolled status and but eventually change to a party affilia-
tion after becoming familiar with a particular candidate.

Another theory: unenrolled voters are free to vote in a
Democrat or Republican primary during a state or Presi-
dential election year. (City elections, on the other hand, are
nonpartisan which means there are preliminary or nm-off
elections based on the number of candidates - not a political
party - for a specific post. After a preliminary election nar-
rows the number of candidates, those nominated move on to
the final in a city election).

But during a state or Presidential election year, voters
affiliated with a specific party can only vote in that party's
primary. So, for instance, a voter who is registered as a
Democrat can only vote in the state Democratic primary for
governor next year.

However, the unenrolled voter can choose a Democrat or
Republican ballot, vote, and then switch back to unenrolled
status after casting their ballot. So there's a little more selec-

SHEA

tion associated with unenrolled status.

Shea says some unenrolled voters do not participate in
primary elections and in some cases, the primary may deter-
mine the eventual winner in November. "That's the danger
in becoming an unenrolled voter - not participating in the
primary process," he says.

One thing is certain: the number of registered voters in
Quincy has decreased since last year's Presidential Election.
As of November, 2008, there were 56,364 voters, which is
1 ,332 more than the number registered as of Sept. 2.

"We lost about 1,300 voters since last fall's Presiden-
tial Election," Shea says, "but it should begin to start rising
again and peak towards the next Presidential year in 2012."

And in case you are wondering what precinct holds the
top spot for the most registered voters in Quincy?

That distinction belongs to Ward 2 Precinct 2 - which
has 2,701 voters. That precinct includes the 10(X) Southern
Artery senior citizen housing complex.

And the precinct with the lowest amount of registered
voters? That would be Ward 1 Precinct 2 in Germantown
with 1,360 voters.

And a few more figures to ponder:

Quincy 's total population, according to the city's census
in January, was 91 ,750. The number of registered voters is
55,032 which is about 60 percent of the city's population.
However, according to the city's Election Department, there
are an estimated 79,519 Quincy residents who are of voting
age; that is, age 18 or older. So, the percentage of Quincy
residents who are eligible to vote and are registered is about
70 percent. But that number is probably higher since the
voting age group includes non-U.S. citizens who are not eli-
gible to vote.

Confused? Perhaps, so I will stop there because it can get
a lot more confusing.

SPEAKING OF NUMBERS, last Wednesday was appar-
ently considered a lucky day by a half dozen couples who
decided to get married in civil ceremonies at City Hall.

The date - 09/09/09 or Sept. 9, 2009
- was busier than usual for City Clerk
Joseph Shea and Assistant Clerk Mau-
reen Hallsen who are also justices of the
peace. They presided over six ceremonies
in the clerk's office on that especially rare
numeric day.

"We usually perform one or two civil
marriage ceremonies a week," Shea said.
"But six in one day is unusually high. It must have been
the date. Some consider dates with the same numbers very
lucky. It was a Wednesday aftemoon and we didn't do any
weddings on Tuesday (9/8/09) or Thursday (9/10/09)."

14. Quincy 's Election Department at City Hall will be open

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS 1912 postcard is a view of the old Tubular Rivet
and Stud Company building in Wollaston. This view
shows Weston Avenue running through the middle of the
picture that was taken just before a third floor was added
to the large building in the center. Additional buildings
were added by the company, including one of the lot in
the foreground, before they moved to Braintree in the
1960s. Many tenants used the buildings over the next

several years, including The Bargain Center, Boston
Gear Works, a corrugated box manufacturer and a lamp
manufacturer. Today, the buildings in this view are part
of the Mellon Bray Condominium complex named for
the founder of the Tubular Rivet Company. To contact

Group Says Puleo Misled Public About Charter School

It is time to shed light on
School Committee Member
Mr. Nick Puleo and his mis-
conceptions and deceptions.

Mr. Puleo knew about
the proposed Quincy charter
school, Hanlin International
Academy, before the Pro-
spectus was delivered to the
Department of Elementary
and Secondary Education on
the due date ofAug. 3, 2009.
In fact, on July 24, 2009, Mr.
Puleo had a cordial social
meeting with Mr. Victor Ng,
a Founding Group member
at the time. In that meeting,
Mr. Ng told Mr. Puleo about
the proposed charter school
to hear his opinion.

Even though Mr. Pu-
leo's response was highly
negative, his concerns were
deemed fair and legitimate.
Mr. Ng then suggested to
Mr. Puleo to meet with
the other Founding Group
members to have a dialogue
about the school .

That meeting never ma-
terialized.

Mr. Puleo then published
an Op-Ed piece in the Quin-
cy Sun on Aug. 27, 2009,
after a full month of know-
ing the existence of the pro-
posed charter school.

Over the past several
weeks, the Founding Group
has made a concerted out-
reach effort to city and school
officials, including Mayor
Koch, all of whom met with
Founding Group members.
The Founding Group will
be making greater outreach
efforts to the general public
soon with town hall meet-
ings to address the concerns
of the general Quincy com-
munity.

There was a recent mis-
statement by Mr. Victor Ng
to the Quincy Sun regard-

A Response From Nick Puleo - Page 8

ing Helen Wong's city of
residence. Ms. Wong is not
a Quincy resident; she pres-
ently resides in the City of
Boston.

Mr. Ng was contacted by
Laura Griffin of the Quincy
Sun, during the workday,
for an impromptu statement
regarding the Hanlin Inter-
national Academy. When
asked which members of
Hanlin's Founding Group
currently live in Quincy, he
stated that he thought Helen
Wong did.

The question was unex-
pected, and he responded
with what he believed to be
the truth. At that time, he
also gave the interviewer
Ms. Wong's contact infor-
mation, and recommended
that she contact her directly
to confirm. The accuracy
of this information was not
confirmed before being
printed.

Mr. Ng would like to as-
sure the residents of Quincy
that it was neither his nor
Ms. Wong's intention to
make any misrepresenta-
tions regarding her city of
residence. When Mr. Chin
was contacted for a state-
ment about the proposed
charter school, the issue of
Helen Wong's residence
was never brought up, so he
was unaware on what was
to be published concerning
this matter.

Later, reporter Laura
Griffin followed up with Mr.
Chin about Ms. Wong's res-
idential status and he con-
firmed it. In no way did Mr.
Chin ever attempt to mis-
represent Ms. Wong's resi-
dency. Therefore, Mr. Chin
never perjured himself.

The correct name of the
proposed Quincy charter
school is "Hanlin Interna-
tional Academy." It is the
named used in the submitted
Prospectus.

The Quincy Sun reported
the name as such on Aug. 27,
2009 in its front page story.
Even in Mr. Puleo's page 5
"Readers Forum" piece in
the same dated publication,
Mr. Puleo wrote using the
correct name. Recently, the
correct name of the school
is used again in two more
articles in the Quincy Sun
published on Sept. 3, 2009.

In the "Readers Forum"
piece, written by several
Founding Group members,
the correct name of the pro-
posed school even headlined
the article's tide.

Like many charter
schools, if it receives a
charter, Hanlin Internation-
al Academy will set up a
501(c) (3) non-profit to hold
its assets and to manage its
fundraising efforts. There-
fore, any defamation of the
school's branding may have
an adverse material effect
for this entity.

The Founding Group
wishes to make sure the pub-
lic understands that charter
schools are defined as public
schools, essentially making
them a government entity,
more specifically a Local
Education Agency (LEA).
Only the state can grant a
charter school .

By deliberately rebrand-
ing the school to "Hanlin
Asian Charter School" and
then use that false name to
justify fear monger claims

of racial segregation in his
Sept. 4. "Puleo: Charter
School Group is Misrepre-
senting Itself press release
and blog, www.nickpuleo.
com, Mr. Puleo is mali-
ciously and unethically li-
beling and vilifying the pro-
posed charter school and its
Founding Group.

Mr. Puleo does all of
this while using his official
Qumcy School Committee
title.

Thus, the Founding
Group is demanding a full
public retraction from Mr.
Puleo of such statements
about the proposed charter
school and the Founding
Group.

The Founding Group
does wish to acknowledge
that Mr. Puleo is not a true
reflection of the great City
of Quincy and its gracious
city officials.

Hanlin International

Academy is a proposed 6
-12 grade American-Asian
charter school that will
open in September of 2010
in Quincy. This school will
open with a class of 88 sixth-
and seventh-grade students
enrolled by lottery, growmg
to a maximum of 308 stu-
dents. The school's mission
is to close the achievement
gap between Quincy 's new
Americans and their native-
born peers, while ensur-
ing all students will benefit
from a superior academic
program immersed in a fu-
sion of classical Far Eastern
and Western instruction,
delivering future college
graduation and international
readiness.

ENC To Present Free Author's Lecture
About Wounded Knee Massacre

The Eastern Nazarene
College History Department
will present a free lecture
next week by the author of
a forthcoming book examin-
ing the Wounded Knee Indi-
an massacre tonight (Thurs-
day) at 7 p.m.

The public is invited to
attend.

The lecture, to be held in
Room 26 of Gardner Hall,
will be given by Heather

Cox Richardson. The title
is "Wounded Knee: Gilded
Age Economics and the
Road to an American Mas-
sacre."

Richardson, an associ-
ate professor of history at
UMass-Amherst, will base
her lecture on her forth-
coming book. Innocence
Lost: American Politics
and the Road to Wounded
Knee (Basic Books, 2010).

Richardson's book argues
that the 1890 South Dakota
massacre of the Sioux il-
lustrates how political and
campaign rhetoric can have
devastating consequences
for the lives of individuals
far removed from the seat of
power.

Eastern Nazarene Cam-
pus is located at 23 E. Elm

Education, Adams Legacy Message At QHS Hall Dedication

Cont'd from Page 2

several guests at the hour-
long dedication along with
Mayor Thomas Koch, Quin-
cy High Principal Frank
Santoro and Adams National
Historical Park Superinten-
dent Marianne Peak. Mem-
bers of the Quincy High stu-
dent council and National
Honor Society were also in
attendance.

Guest speaker Peter
Boylston Adams, a seventh
generation descendant of
John Adams, told the stu-
dents they had a tremendous
opportunity through their
education to influence fel-
low students. "What you do
and how you interact with
other students can make and
impact on your peers," said
Adams.

Adams, a helicopter
squadron commander dur-
ing the Vietnam War, de-

cided he wanted to "provide
some service to give ba;k to
the community," much like
his descendents did, after
many of his acquaintances
never made it home from
the war.

He pointed out that John
Adams gave the city 86
acres of land in 1822 where
a church and schools could
be built. Henry Adams, too.
purchased parcels of land in
1 885 that eventually became
Merry mount Park.

Peak said she believed
the Adams' were visionar-
ies and has learned much
of the family history from
Peter Adams. "1 often turn
to Peter Adams for insight
as only an Adams can give,"
said Peak. "You are all in the
right place at the right time.
Embrace education now and
all through your life."

Adams said he was truly

touched by the ceremony.
"This dedication of the hall
is a huge honor to my fam-
ily"

Koch pointed out that the
Adams legacy helped define
Quincy "All through his-
tory, the Adamses have been
part of our great city," he
said. "Ihis truly was their
city, their neighborhood."

Several speakers have al-
ready given lectures in Ad-
ams Hall and Santoro said
there will be man} more to
come. Holocaust survivor
Ries Vanderpol and Doug
Gutro of the Environmen-
tal Protection Agency were
guest speakers in April.

Santoro said the hall
will be the venue for much
educational discourse in the
future and tying in multiple
disciplines. "We try to put

Sophomore student

council representative Don-

a more intimate setting for
the audience and the guest
speakers. She's looking for-
ward to attending more lec-
tures in the future and called
the speakers "good role

of my history back in the
1970s, fighting the federal
court order that like Puelo
oppose an charter school
that would choose students
based on, race. That would
not be good for Quincy or
America. A charter school
is in fact a public school
financed by our taxes, if it
can't be an open school for
all, it shouldn't get charter
school status.

1 have always supported
good quality schools as
close to home as possible.
Parents not government are
the primary educators. It
is one thing to have Asian
markets in Quincy but quite
another to have Asian pub-
lic schools which charter
schools are. Is there a need
in Quincy for Asian kids to
go to school with each other
or with all their friends in
the neighborhood. Would an
all African-American char-
ter school fly? I think not.
Just like a school with 44
seats set aside for white kids
wouldn't fly.

Quincy needs to get more

inclusive and perhaps, the
backers of this proposed
charter school need to re-
think what they are doing
and way. They should also
think of what is it that Quin-
cy Public Schools aren't
doing right now in their
opinion. Strengthening the

existing public school seems
like a better goal to attain.
Creating the Asian-Amer-
ican charter school might
actually have a negative im-
pact on quality education for
Asian students.

One final thought. Forty-
four Asian seats are guaran-

teed. Who is Asian? Will the
44 Asian seats be subdivided
between Chinese, Taiwan-
ese, Cambodian, Vietnam-
ese, Laotian, etc. More food
for thought, huh?

National Direct Support
Professionals Recognition Week

1 am extremely thankful
that the late Sen. Ted Ken-
nedy, Sen John Kerry, and
several of their Senate col-
leagues have designated
the week of Sept. 14* as
''National Direct Support
Professionals Recognition
week" throughout he entire
country.

Direct support profes-
sionals at Work Incorporat-
ed, of North Quincy, myself
included, provide residential
services, vocational training,
and community job place-
ment for individuals with
disabilities. Direct support
staff have the task of provid-
ing services for some of the
most vulnerable members
of our society. We take great
pride in our career paths
knowing that we make a dif-
ference in the community.

In a sector of more then
185,000 employees, the im-
portant work of supporting
the mentally or physically
disabled population can of-
ten be overlooked.

While our profession is
not the most recognized or
well paid, the services we
provide can also help easy
economic tension by provid-
ing outstanding work force
members that allow compa-
nies to then flourish. In ad-
dition, family members of
those served have the secu-
rity of knowing their loved
one is a valued community
member which relives fi-
nancial constraints.

This week has a special
meaning for me, as well
as my peers, as it recog-
nizes the efforts made and
obstacles overcome by all
direct care staff to provide
quality support to so many
individuals who are in need.
1 appreciate the national
recognition for the field of
direct support professional,
and look forward to building
awareness for this profes-
sion and the population we
serve throughout Massachu-
setts communities as well as
the country.

JAY DAVIS HAS NEVER QUIT ON OUR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS OR OUR KIDS, AND HE NEVER WILL!

As a parent of two public school children, a public school graduate and the brother of three sisters who
have taught for a combined 85 years in Massachusetts public schools, I know the value of a quality public
education. Not only did I benefit from a diverse student body and committed teachers, my public education
also prepared me well for Sjracuse University and Suffolk Law School. Today my daughters, Madison and
Meghan, are benefiting fi"om those same positive experiences in the Quincy Public Schools. As your City
Councilor, I have been a tireless advocate for our schools. Whether it has been the construction of the new
Quincy High School, planning of the new Central Middle School, or preventing cuts in school funding, 1
have always been there as a voice for our children and their future.

Other candidates for the Ward 4 Council seat can talli about tlieir commitment to our public schools, but only
one candidate has been there, everyday, through good times and bad times, supporting public education.

On Tuesday, November 3rd, Please
cast your vote for Jay Davis!

Maureen Glynn Candidate
For Ward 6 City Councillor

Maureen Glynn, a local
businesswoman and long-
time community activist,
announces her candidacy
for Quincy's Ward 6 council
seat.

i grew up in Quincy and
I understand what Quincy
ta.xpayers are going through.
1 am concerned about where
our city is heading," Glynn
said, "and 1 believe I can do
a better job for the people in
my ward. Ward 6 residents
encouraged me to run be-
cause they want a stronger
and more dependable coun-
cillor who will speak up for
them especially on taxes."

If elected, Glynn said
she intends to hold the line
on property taxes. She said,
"Funding education, our
public services, senior pro-
grams and public works
must be done through sen-
sible budget management"
and she "will not be a rub-
ber stamp for any and all
spending requests."

Glynn has over 20 years
of community service ex-
perience on a broad range
of issues. She is known for
her ability to bring people
together to solve problems.

MAUREEN GLYNN

Glynn led the fight that pre-
vented the USS Salem from
being moored at residential
Marina Bay. She said she
continues to lead the fight
to help prevent what she
called a "traffic nightmare"
in Quincy when the Nepon-
set Bridge is repaired this
fall and to get a state-funded
commuter ferry to relieve
road and bridge traffic con-
gestion.

In addition, Glynn has
served on the Quincy Con-
servation Commission (six
years). South Shore Cham-
ber of Commerce ( 1 3 years) ,
Marina Bay Civic Associa-
tion, Director (seven years),

and Quincy 2(K)0.

Glynn, owner of Results
Real Estate, Inc.. since 1986,
said she is a businesswoman
who understands the impor-
tance of creating and keep-
ing jobs in Quincy. Previ-
ously, Glynn served City of
Boston, Personnel Depart-
ment, Administrative Assis-
tant (1981-85), and City of
Boston Health and Hospitals
Department, Personnel Su-
pervisor (1975-1981). She
is a member of the National
Associafion of Realtors,
Plymouth and South Shore
Board of Realtors, and a
Trustee and Chairperson of
Marina Point. She is also a
Northeast Region supporter
of St. Jude's Hospital.

Glynn was educated at
the University of Massa-
chusetts-Boston, B.S. de-
gree, business management;
Mass. Bay Community Col-
lege, Associate's degree,
business administration and
Cardinal Gushing Central
High School.

Glynn grew up on East
Squantum St., lived 21 years
in Dorchester, and now lives
on Marina Drive with her
husband, Frank.

Firefighters Endorse Davis In Ward 4

The Quincy Firefighters
Association, I.A.F.F., Local
792 recently announced its
support for Jay Davis in the
Ward 4 City Councilor race.

Quincy Firefighters As-
sociafion President Ernest
Arienti said that throughout
his career in public service.
Davis has "shown unbridled
devotion to not only the peo-
ple of Ward 4, but to all the
cifizens of Quincy as well."

"Because of Councilor
Davis' insight, experience
and commitment to always
do what is right, no matter
the political fallout, Quincy

is a better place," Arienti
said.

A major reason for many
of the union members' votes,
Arienti noted, was Davis'
understanding and support
for the firefighters' needs
during recent debate over
area development projects
and during difficult budget-
ary hearings.

The Quincy Firefighters
Association represents 200
firefighters in Quincy.

Davis thanked the mem-
bers of the Quincy Firefight-
ers Associafion for their
support.

"These brave men and
women risk their lives every
day for the safety of the cifi-
zens of Quincy," Davis said.
"What they ask for in return
is respect for their needs and
the needs of their families.

Davis said as president of
the City Council and chair-
man of the council's Public
Safety Committee, "1 have
drawn upon my years of
public service experience
to address the needs of the
Quincy Fire Department.

"I am extremely proud to
have their support."

Mdp Me Keep Our Schools A FrtorUy!

Quincy s School System is strong and vibrant, but like most
cities and towns our schools are under a great deal of
pressure. My three school age children are a constant
reminder of how high the stakes are. Over the next four years
we will need strong, creative and independent people to
represent our School Committee. During the past four years
I have tried to live up to these ideals. I have never been afraid
to ask questions of any administration, I have championed
causes that benefit all of our children and I have proposed
and delivered real solutions for our system. My opinion has
always been "A city is known by the schools it keeps - great
schools, attract great people!" With. your support, we can
maintain the focus on the quality of our schools. I believe I
have demonstrated a passion for the children and families of
our great city. 1 look forward to working even harder, to
make our school system the best it can be.

I respectfully ask for one of your 3 votes
on Tuesday, September 22nd!

/ am number ^ on your ballot!

Quincy Medical Center Cancer Walk Sept. 27

The 12th Annual Qumcy
Medical Center Cancer Walk
will be held Sunday, Sept.
27 at Pageant Field in Mer-
rymount Park in Quincy.

Registration begins at
8 a.m., and the four-mile,
non-competitive walk starts
at 9:30 a.m.

The QMC Cancer Walk
Committee is lead by Chair-
man of the QMC Board
of Trustees Bob Curry, of
Curry ACE Hardware, who
started the walk in 1998 as
a way to support The Marie
A. Curry Fund at Quincy
Medical Center (QMC).

The Curry Fund was es-
tablished in 1995 by Curry
and his family as a lasting,
living memorial to his wife
and their mother who died
of breast cancer. Since its in-
ception, the Walk has raised
more than $1.5 million for
the Curry Fund.

Now in its 12th year, the
QMC Cancer Walk supports
the fund's mission to:

• promote the early de-
tection and prevention of a
wide range of cancers;

• ensure that women and
men in our community can
access free and potentially
life-saving cancer screen-
ings;

• purchase state-of-the-
art medical equipment, such
as new digital mammogra-
phy and stereotactic breast
biopsy equipment, to better
diagnose and manage pa-

about a combined $2,300.

The $5^50 sum col-
lected will go towards youth
programs and events of the
Houghs Neck Community
Council.

"We've already decided
to eliminate admissions fees
to our Harvest Fest and Eas-
ter Bunny Fun Day since the
candidates did so well this
year," said Houghs Neck
Community Council Presi-
dent Brian Laroche.

"We are even making
plans to add more games
and rides to our 3rd of July
Family Day. This comes at
a time when families need a
break and we are so happy
that we can offer these free
programs," Laroche said.

"What these four indi-
viduals have done for our
community is stunning, our
appreciation to their efforts
is hard to put into words, we
are so grateful to them," he
added.

The candidates kicked off
their campaign at a Mayor
Breakfast and raised money
all summer. Although Berry
will be recognized for his
efforts with a trophy, he will
not be the only winner: the
community is the real win-
ner.

There will be another
contest judged that day:
neighborhood residents will
vote to decide which restau-
rant and individual serves
the best chowder.

The "chowda fest" is Sat-
urday, Sept. 19 from 2 to 6
p.m. at the Maritime Center,
137 Bay view Ave.

The festival will have
restaurant and individual
categories. Contributing
restaurants include: Captain
Fishbones, the Clam Box,
The Fours, Hancock Tavern,
The Inn at Bay Pointe, the
Jury Room, Louis Crossing,
Roche Brothers, Villa Rosa,
all in Quincy; and Peggy
O' Neil's Pub in Dorchester
and the Wood Road Deli in
Braintree.

The event will also fea-
ture 10 individual entries
into the contest with clam,
fish, corn, salmon and many
other styles of chowder.

Quincy Police Depart-
ment Marine Unit will have
the police boat Guardian
docked at the Maritime
Center and will give boat
rides during the event. The
Guardian is a retired U.S.
Coast Guard 41 -foot Utility
Patrol Boat.

In addition, the Wey-
mouth Police Marine Unit
will have their police boat
Sea Watch at the Maritime
Center and will also give
boat rides.

The Quincy Police De-
partment Marine Unit will
also demonstrate the use of
their Remote Operated Ve-
hicle, a small, unmanned
submarine, to show how the
equipment is used to retrieve
objects lost underwater.

ENC Launches New Quincy High School Car Show, Flea Market Oct. 24

Branding Campaign

More than I 200 students
recently returned to classes
at Eastern Nazarene Col-
lege in Quincy, as the Chris-
tian liberal arts institution
launched a new branding
campaign built around the
slogan, "Discover your pur-
pose."

The most visible elements
of the new campaign include
a new student "viewbook,"
brochures, postcards and
a newly revamped college
website (www.enc.edu) fea-
turing profiles of ENC stu-
dents who "discovered their
purpose" at the college.

ENC President Coriis
McGee said the new slogan
and campaign are the results
of a year-long process that
began by surveying college
staff, faculty, students and
alumni.

"We wanted to learn
what our core constituen-
cies felt were the hallmarks
of an Eastern Nazarene edu-
cation." McGee said. "From
this research, we identified
four themes that resonated
across the ENC community:
academic quality; the cam-
pus's proximity to Boston;
our caring. Christian com-
munity; and our commit-
ment to developing global
Christians."

McGee said the new slo-

of making a positive impact
on the world around them."

The new slogan will be-
gin appearing in advertise-
ments, on billboards and in
other marketing materials.

Shea also based his
turnout estimate on recent
preliminary elections that
included run-offs for mayor
and school committee.

In 1989, voter turnout
was 46 percent as four well-
known candidates vied to

A Letter To The Voters From
Mayoral Candidate Joseph O'Malley

To the voters of Quincy:

Sept. 22 is upon us. You
must decide between four
candidates for mayor. Now
we can stay the course with
the two better known can-
didates and watch city ser-
vices decline and taxes go
up and bad behavior to con-
tinue to rule the city.

Or you can vote out the
mayor and prevent the re-
turn of the ex-mayor come
Sept. 22 allowing new
blood into the office. The
two professional politicians
have had their chance and
they both failed the taxpay-
ers. I will cut all bad hab-
its, such as managers who
don't follow up workers to
make sure they do the jobs
that need to be done. 1 will
stop managers taking home
municipal vehicles and not
allow the city of Quincy ve-
hicles to leave city grounds
after normal working hours
without checking with man-
agers. No take home ve-
hicles whatsoever. We can't
afford it.

I will ask all department
heads to weed out any bad
work habits and to rid Quin-
cy of expenses we can do
without including workers
if need be. i will ask for an

immediate audit to investi-
gate the claims made by the
professional candidates.

1 want to set up at the
Quincy Courts a tracking
system of anyone interested
and convicted of a crime
who receives any form of
government assistance. If
they live in Quincy housing
they will be evicted. If an
occupant of public housing
allows a convicted person to
stay in Quincy housing they
will be evicted. Anyone who
receives any form of public
assistance who is convicted
of a crime will have their
government checks gar-
nished until the city is made
whole. If you need assi::t?.nce
then you will be a good citi-
zen period. 1 will force drug
dealers out of Quincy. I will
demand that the methadone
van be moved to another
community.

I would like to start the
process of redeveloping
Germantown Housing and
any other public housing
which stands on prime real
estate. Developers could
build high end housing on
prime water views and the
city could extract as much
view tax as possible. How is
it fair that hard workers with

water views pay more than
others in the city and yet
people on government as-
sistance are allowed to live
on prime real estate and not
pay a fair tax?

Quincy is losing millions
in tax dollars and doing
nothing to increase revenue.
I believe that is criminal
neglect. I want every le-
gal citizen of Quincy to be
treated fairly. No one group
of people will be treated dif-
ferently than any other. It's
time Quincy taxpayers start
taking back a city that pays
workers very well and hold
City Hall accountable.

Go after bad behavior
and give taxpayers a break
if possible. No more shell
games. Give the political
lifers a reality check. Vote
them out.

I have no political con-
nections. It's up to you
come Sept. 22. Good luck
and hold on to your wallet.

63 Island Rd.

O'Malley is one of four
mayoral candidates on the
ballot for the city prelimi-
nary election Tuesday, Sept.
22.)

Koch Garners Education Endorsements

Four- Year Term
For Mayor?

A trio of School Commit-
tee members have endorsed
Mayor Thomas Koch in
Tuesday's preliminary elec-
tion, saying he has "never
faltered in his commitment
to education," during his
first 19 months in office.

In a letter to voters this
week. School Committee
members Jo- Ann Bragg,
Ronald Mariano, and Ni-
cholas Puleo highlighted
Koch's education record
built while the City grasps
with the worst financial cri-
sis in a generation.

"While communities
across the Commonwealth
are drastically reducing
school budgets and pro-
grams, Quincy is weather-
ing the storm and fK)ised

to emerge with a stronger
school system thanks in
great part to the leadership
of Mayor Koch."

Bragg, Mariano, and
Puleo listed a series of
accomplishments under
the Koch administration.
Among others they cited:

• He maintained Quincy 's
tradition of small class sizes
and commitment to all-day
kindergarten despite cuts in
state aid;

• He worked together
with our teachers to reach a
landmark agreement to join
the state-run health insur-
ance program, which saved
millions of dollars and kept
teachers in our classrooms.

• With budget cuts still
necessary, he worked to-

gether with every member
of the Quincy School Com-
mittee to preserve programs
and minimize the extent of
cutbacks.

• He repaired broken
relationships with state of-
ficials, leading to nearly a
million dollars in savings
on the new Quincy High
School project.

The three school com-
mittee members added:

'This is an election year,
and many things will be
written and said. We believe
the facts are clear: Mayor
Koch is deeply committed
to education and the vital
role it will play in the future
of our great City."

In addition to the let-
ter, Manano, a state repre-
sentative who has .served
for more than 17 years on
the committee, said Koch's
place in the Mayor's office
is especially vital for school
construction projects after
the City lost 90 percent state
reimbursement for school
buildings several years ago.

"1 worked very hard
and was deeply involved in
helping obtain the 90 per-

cent state reimbursement.
It remains deeply troubling
that the mistakes of the pre-
vious administration left us
without that reimbursement
rate, but reassuring that we
are moving forward by once
again working together with
our state leaders "

For his part, Puleo added
to the letter by reviewing the
tax arguments made by Bill
Phelan and pointing to easy-
to-find links on the Mas-
sachusetts Department of
Revenue website that show
clearly that "Bill Phelan is
not being honest" with resi-
dents about his tax record
with residents, he said.

Puleo's report can be
found on his website, www.
nickpuleo.com.

"People deserve an hon-
est debate about the issues,
particularly on taxes. But
the facts show that Bill Phe-
lan is twisting numbers to
his own benefit," Puleo said.
"There's no complicated
formula needed to look at
these numbers. It is all there
in black and white and easy
to find on the Department of
Revenue's website."

This year's election has
once agam ignited debate
over term lengths for the
city's mayor.

Under the charter. Quin-
cy "s mayors serve for two-
year terms and periodic ef-
forts to change the length
have been defeated.

This year's mayoral elec-
tion has revived the issue,
according to City Council
President Jay Davis who
wants the mayor s term in-
creased to four years,

Davis said he's been go-
ing door to door for his own
re-election bid and the ques-
tion of the mayor's term is a
constant.

"One of the most com-
mon questions I get is wh\
don't we have a four year
term (for mayors)." Davis
said last week after asking
City Council to review the
issue and support the effort.

After the meeting. Davis
said a four year term would
increase stability for the
city's government, allou
long term planning, and aid
mayors in attracting talent to
City Hall. He first raised the

issue after his own election
to council president and he
wants op>en hearings before
the council session ends in
December

"It's been brought up for
discussion." Davis said, add-
ing that, in other cities, "the
vast majoritv have four-) ear
terms "

"It makes sense," Davis
said, adding that the change
is supported b) former ma\ -
ors and other councillors

Former Mayor Frank Mc-
Cauley said this week he's
not onl\ in favor of a four-
year term, but he tried three
times to change the term in
the 1980'sand 1990s

"1 just think two years is
too short." said .McCauley.
"You get a \ear and then
you're running again "

McCaule). also, thinks
that councillors should,
also, be elected for four vear
terms and the cit\ would
save the $160,000 in elec-
tion costs.

Former .Mavor Walter
Hannon. also, agrees with
the change. "I'm ver\ much

in favor of it. It's the only
way to go"

However, Hannon

stressed that he, also, favors
term limits, "Two terms
only. Eight years and you're
out."

Neither of the former
mayors supports reducing
the mayor's powers or ad-
vocate any recall provisions
as part of a package for
change.

Ordinance Committee
Chairman Doug Gutro said
Monday the issue will be
considered at a future meet-
ing.

According to McCauley,

the change requires a two-
thirds vote of the council,
approval by the legislature
as a Home Rule petition and
approval through a voter
referendum.

Residents may, also, ini-
tiate the process, according
to McCauley, who said the
petition must be filed by
certified voters and, again,
approved through a voter
referendum.

City Solicitor James
Timmins said he is review-
ing the issue as requested by
council. Timmins said that
state legislators appear more
likely to approve a citizen
initiative on such issues.

SERIOUS SUCCESSION PLANNING

Gcxxi business planning calls
for business partners to anticipate
what would happen to the company
if one or more partners were to die
or become disabled. One viable
way to deal with these and other
potential occurrences that pose a
threat to the continuing smooth
operation of the business is to draw
up a legal document called a buy-
sell agreement. Customized to fit
business owners' circumstances,
and properly funded by life and
disability insurance, a buy-sell
agreement guarantees that a
business owner's death, disability,
retirement, or divorce will guide
the buyout with other partners. A
key player in creating a buy-sell
agreement is usually a life insurance
agent, who has experience in
dealing with problems of business
succession planning.

Your business has its own

unique features, which require
thorough insurance review to cover
the associated risks. At JAMES
J. SULLIVAN INSURANCE
AGENCY, we specialize in careful
analysis of each client's operations
and the crafting of a comprehensive
insurance package that protects
your businesses in the event of
an unexpected loss. Our policies
include key-person insurance,
business interruption, theft, and
liability. Please call us at 617-328-
8600 to schedule a consultation. As
an independent insurance agency, we
offer competitive rates and prompt
settlements of claims. Our office is
located at 151 Hancock Street.

NOTE: With a cross purchase
plan, business partners enter
into a buy-sell agreement that is
funded by life insurance policies
that partners take out (and pay the
premiums of) on each other.

City councillors and the
School Committee discussed
the charter school concept
last week as both bodies
considered the potential ef-
fects of a charter school on
Quincy public schools,

"We have not had a char-
ter school in Quincy," Ward
5 Councillor Doug Gutro
said before introducing data
compiled by the Massachu-
setts Municipal Association
(MMA) to the council.

Gutro said the statistics
indicate, "They are, frankly,
a budget buster."

As for their educational
benefit, "1 think we have a
pretty dam good school sys-
tems," said Gutro. "The jury
is out on charter schools,"

Gutro sought council re-
view of the financial impact
of a charter school on the
school department's budget

after discussing an applica-
tion for an Asian American
charter school proposed for
Quincy.

The Finance Committee
will consider the issue.

At last week's meet-
ing, the School Committee
members, also, discussed
the application for the char-
ter school which would be
called Hanlin International
Academy and open in 2010.

Dave McCarthy, vice
chairman of the School
Committee, said after the
meeting that committee
members are concerned
about the cost to the city
and its impact on the public
schools.

The state funds char-
ter schools by deducting

prove of the concept.

McCarthy said the char-
ter school board did not
contact committee members
directly.

While the cost to the city
is important, McCarthy said
the public schools already
offer the Asian community a
solid and diverse education
platform.

Decisions on charter
schools are made at the state
level, according to City So-
licitor James Timmins who
described the state's calcu-
lation for funding.

"It's governed at that lev-
el," said Timmins.

Timmins, also, said there
are costs that are not consid-
ered in the state's formula
and noted the Hanlin Inter-

the sum due a municipal- national Academy would be

ments on a cost per student hours that are beyond the
basis.

According to McCarthy,
the committee received
copies of the Hanlin Acad-
emy proposal in late sum-
mer through Superintendent
Richard DeCristofaro and
members basically di sap-

school department's busing
schedule.

"We're going to be le-
gally obligated to provide
busing," said Timmins of
the additional costs.

Charter schools were
once a local option, ac-

cording to Ward 2 Council-
lor Daniel Raymondi who
served on the School Com-
mittee.

"It used to be the School
Committee would take a
vote (for or against charter
schools)," said Raymondi
who recalled the consistent
votes of the former School
Committees against charter
schools,

Raymondi said he favors
a Home Rule Petition which
would allow local school
committees to approve or
disapprove of a charter
school within their commu-
nities.

According to prospec-
tus, the Hanlin International
Academy would open in
September 2010 with 88
students, 44 Asian and 44
non- Asian, chosen by lot-
tery.

The school would fo-
cus on blending the best of
western and eastern educa-
tional techniques, according
to Dean Chin, spokesman
and chairman of the Hanlin
Board of Directors.

State Treasurer And Former Councillor Launches Independent Run For State 's Highest Post

Quincy Gives Cahill A Rousing Start To Governor's Race

By ROBERT BOSWORTH

State Treasurer Tim Cahi-
ll, who is running for gover-
nor as an independent candi-
date, got a rousing send-ofF
to his gubernatorial bid at a
fundraiser last Thursday at
the Best West Adams Inn in
North Quincy.

About 500 friends and
supporters attended the rally
for Cahill who a day earlier

launched his gubernatorial
campaign at a press confer-
ence at Boston's Omni Park-
er House Hotel. The former
Quincy city councillor who
still hails from this city cited
his 20-year history of solv-
ing problems at all levels
of government, his fiscally
conservative approach to
managing finances, and his
independent status.

he would prioritize growing

an effort to spur economic
growth in Massachusetts.

"I do not enter this race

or party," said Cahill. "I'm

we need new leadership to

brant place where jobs grow

Rock Solid Education for the Granite City

Mike Covais believes that

nothing is more important in our free

society than the education of the

next generation of Americans.

Our students must now compete with others from all over
the world. We must give them the tools they need to excel in
this global economy. We need to emphasize the importance
of excellence in math and science to maintain our edge in
technology. We need more - not less - literature, art, music
and theater in our schools to foster creativity and critical
thinking. All these elements are necessary to develop the
potential in our leaders of tomorrow.

and the economy rebounds,
where taxes are cut both to
keep the state competitive
and to lessen the burden on
the middle-class."

Cahill pledged to collab-
orate with elected officials
from across the political
spectrum, as well as the pri-
vate sector, to find the best
solutions to the problems
facing Massachusetts today.
"As you all know, two
months ago I un-enrolled
as a Democrat and will be
running for governor as an
Independent," Cahill said.
"Many on the inside have
said that only a Democrat
can be sympathetic to work-
ing people or that only a
Republican can lower taxes
on businesses. I know that
neither party has a monopo-
ly on good ideas."

Emphasizing his fiscal
responsibility and speaking
about his family, Cahill said
"I understand what it is like
to have to sacrifice and make
tough decisions. I will al-
ways, as governor, have the
interests of the middle class
at heart because I go home
to a middle class family ev-
ery evening after work.

"The issues that my wife
Tina and I deal with, trying
to raise and educate four
daughters, are the challeng-
es that families across our
state face every day. I will
work to improve the lives
of working famiHes by cre-

ating job opportunities and
growing our economy."

Cahill will try to become
only the second Quincy res-
ident to be elected Massa-
chusetts governor. Founding
Father and Declaration of
Independence signer John
Hancock, who was bom in
Quincy, served as governor
for approximately 1 1 years,
from 1780 until 1793. Han-
cock stepped down from
office for about two years
during that time but was re-
elected governor and served
until his death.

The last Quincy resi-
dent to run for governor
was Francis X. Bellotti who
sought the state's highest of-
fice three times. In 1 964, as
lieutenant governor, Bellotti
defeated incumbent Gov.
Endicott Peabody in the
Democratic primary but lost
the general election to John
Volpe.

Bellotti, who also served
as state Attorney General,
also sought the Democratic
gunbematorial nomination
in 1970 and 1990 but lost
the primary election both
years.

Cahill's decision to leave
the Democratic party and
register as an unenrolled
voter in July clears the way
for him to be on the general
election ballot next Novem-
ber and avoid a primary
election with incumbent
Gov. Deval Patrick. Patrick,

a Democrat, announced ear-
lier this year he would seek
a second term next year.
However, some political ob-
servers believe Patrick may
opt out of the race and allow
Lt. Gov. Timothy Murray to
carry the Democratic mantle
into next year's state elec-
tion.

On the Republican side,
there are two declared
candidates for governor:
Christy Mihos, who ran as
an independent in 2006; and
Charlie Baker, the CEO of
Harvard Vanguard Medical
Associates.

In 2002, Cahill won a
four-way Democratic pri-
mary and was elected Mas-
sachusetts state treasurer
and receiver general. He
was re-elected in 2006 with
the highest vote total of all
the statewide elected offi-
cials.

Prior to his service as
state treasurer, he was Nor-
folk county treasurer, a
Quincy city councillor, and
ov/ned a business in down-
town Quincy, then known as
Handshakes Cafe.

As treasurer, he reformed
the Massachusetts School
Building Authority, created
a Job Growth Initiative, re-
turned close to $5 billion
in Lottery local aid to cit-
ies and towns, oversaw the
growth of the state pension
fiind, and reunited $L.l bil-
lion in Abandoned Property
with its rightful owners.

In 2007, Cahill was
awarded an Eisenhower
Fellowship and traveled to
India and Ireland studying
urban growth.

In 2009, Cahill changed
his party affiliation fi-om
Democrat to independent
because he felt the Massa-
chusetts Democratic Party
no longer reflected his val-
ues and beliefs - fiscal re-
sponsibility, taxpayers first,
and relief for the problems
faced by the middle class.

likely to see a hike in their
insurance rates.

Such incidents are occur-
ring more and more across
the city and in neighboring
cities and towns, according
to Minton who is asking
residents to be aware and to
inform police of suspicious
activity.

Minton said there has
been a surge in the number
of incidents of burglarized
cars reported in Quincy,
Boston, Braintree and other
locales.

According to police re-
cords, the numbers increased
by 10% from 2007 's 504 to
568 in 2008 . As of this week,
the 2009 numbers may have
leveled off with 443 inci-
dents so far this year.

They are still too high for
Minton and his unit.

In most cases, Minton
said the cars are unlocked
and the thieves can see the
GPS device, a cell phone,
pocketbook, 1-Pod, and even
the charger. He estimates

that 96 of every 100 looted
cars or SUV's are unlocked.
Minton issued a warning
in late July when he cited the
increasing number of breaks
into cars, mostly at night in
unlocked cars in driveways
or in front of homes.

In most cases, he warned,
"There are multiple car
breaks on the same street or
adjoining streets."

Thieves will be look-
ing for "anything you leave
in your car," according to
Minton who described a
closed boxful of empty cans
and bottles that occasioned
a car break -in. The box
looked attractive as if it held
valuables.

"It's a crime of opportu-
nity," said Minton who be-
lieves the items are sold on
E-Bay and pawnshops and
on the street where buyers
can pick up a hot bargain in
electronics.

Minton 's team patrols in
unmarked cars and on bicy-
cles and has arrested "over
a dozen suspects in the last
three months."

However, even catching
the thieves can be frustrat-
ing as the suspects raise
bail and are back out on the
street in no time, according
to Minton.

"I'm rto sociologist but I
think it's a sign of the econ-
omy," Minton said, add-
ing the crimes also sustain
"drug habits."

While police crack down
on suspects, they, also, need
residents to lock their cars,
take preventive measures
and report suspicious activ-
ity, according to Minton.

"Nobody writes down se-
rial numbers," Minton said,
noting that such numbers
are essential in identifying
the proper owners of cell
phones, 1-Pods. and GPS
devices and are helpful in
court cases.

While there are groups
or rings of thieves that op-
erate together. Minton said
they are very loosely joined.
They may target one area
together and pool their loot
for sales.

In such cases, police have

Minton planned to dis-

Tuesday evening.

It's important not to wait
until after a crime occurs,
according to Minton, who,
several times, said that resi-
dents could help stem the
problem by contacting po-
lice about any suspicious
activity.

In addition to thefts from
cars, Minton said residents
are concerned about door-
to-door solicitors, all of
whom must have a permit
issued by the city.

Minton warns residents
not to open the door to
such solicitation but to talk

A Job Well Done

On Monday, Sept. 7, at approximately 2:40 p.m.,
Officer Annemarie Reilly was dispatched to Chick-
atabot Road and Sea Street for a report of an un-
armed robbery. Numerous
other units were dispatched
as well due to the nature of the
call.

Quincy Police Commu-
nications informed respond-
ing units that a brown Hon-
da Accord fled the scene.
Upon arrival, the Officer
interviewed the 14-year-old
victim and his two female
friends, also 14 years of age.
to get additional information
out to Officers in the area.

The victim appeared upset and spoke rapidly, stating
that he and his two friends were walking to Dunkin Do-
nuts on Sea Street.

As they were walking on Squanto Road, a brown
vehicle with two males inside drove by them and
then abruptly stopped. The victim said that a male got
out of the passenger side of the vehicle, walked around
it, then started walking towards them. The victim said
that he got a bad feeling that something wrong was about
to happen, so he told his two friends to keep walking as
the male approached him.

The male (suspect 1) yelled to the driver, "I'll
be back." The driver drove off as suspect 1 engaged
the victim in a conversation, stating that they knew each
other from Quincy High School. Suspect I then asked
the victim if he could see his phone, then without per-
mission, reached into the right front jean pocket and
took the victim's phone and a $1 .00 bill. At this time, a
resident, who observed the interaction, called out from
a house and asked if there was a problem. The victim
tried to show concern on his face but was afraid to yell
for help due to the suspect's presence. At this time, the
driver of the suspect vehicle drove back towards them.
Suspect 1 kept the phone, got back into the car and they
drove off.

The victim provided the license plate, make of ve-
hicle, stickers on the car as well as a full description of
suspect 1 and the driver, (suspect 2). The victim used
one of his friend's phones to call "91 1 ." Meanwhile, Of-
ficer Tom Pepdjonovic spotted the suspect vehicle trav-
eling northbound on Quincy Shore Drive with two males
inside, so he stopped them at 90 Quincy Shore Drive.
Detective James Dentremont and Officer Matt Mill-
er transported the victim to the suspect's location, to
determine if they were the suspects. Officer Reilly then
interviewed a neighbor who called in the suspicious be-
havior. He said that he overheard the conversation about
Quincy High School , but could see that something was
not right, so he called out and the susp>ect said things
were o.k. Soon after, the suspect vehicle drove by and
the neighbor noted the license plate as it drove off,
then called the Quincy Police to report the suspicious
behavior. The victim had the opportunity to see both
suspects and confirmed that they were the ones involved
in the crime. Once under arrest. Officer Steve Cleary
found the victim's phone on suspect 1 . The suspects
were transported to the station for booking. Suspect 1 , a
16-year-old Dorchester resident, was charged wjth "Un-
armed Robbery" and Violation of a Probation Warrant.
Suspect 2, the driver, a 20-year-old Dorchester resident,
was charged with "Unarmed Robbery" "Conspiracy to
Commit a Crime" and "Contributing to the Delinquency
of a Minor."
Nice Work!

In this case, the victim handled himself very well.
His first action was to recognize that "something was
wrong", even though no action was taken against him
at the time. His next action was to remove the two girls
from harm by sending them away from the potential
threat. The victim did not resist when suspect 1 took
his phone. Instead, he remained calm and became an
excellent eyewitness, noting the make, color and plate
of the car, along with accurate descriptions of not only
suspect 1 , but also of the driver.

I would also like to recognize the neighbor, who
called the Police because he was concerned about sus-
picious behavior of the suspects. He didn't wait for a
crime to happen, he called because he too sensed some-
thing was wrong.

The Quincy Police Department urges people to call
the Police when they have reason to believe a crime is
about to, or is, or has been committed. As an example,
in last week's story, if the witness had called when the
suspects entered their neighbor's yard, even though they
didn't do anything at that point, it could have resulted in
Officers catching the thieves red-handed. An unknown
person in your neighbor's yard certainly is reason to call
the Police.

Historic Survey For Quincy Center Now Online

A sweeping study of
Quincy Center's historic
buildings and resources, the
first of its kind in 23 years,
will provide a critical tool
in the city's $1 billion plan
to redevelop downtown
Quincy and is now avail-
able for the public to read
on the city's website, Mayor
Thomas Koch and Planning
Director Dennis Harrington
announced last week.

"An important part of
our work downtown is to
use our existing historic re-
sources as a foundation that
will guide our redevelop-
ment plans going forward."
said Koch. "This survey
provides important informa-
tion on those resources that
will help ensure our plans
meet the important historic
and cultural standards that
have defined downtown for
generations."

History and Historic Pres-
ervation consultants. Gray
& Pape, Inc, of Providence,
Rhode Island, recently com-
pleted all four phases of
the Historic Survey Update
of the Quincy Center Zon-
ing District, incorporating
cultural resources from the
initial European presence

up to about 196() for about
75 buildings in the Quincy
Center Zoning District.

A team, lead by Nick Av-
ery. Senior Principal Inves-
tigator in Architecture and
Landscape History for Gray
& Pape, conducted the sur-
vey according to the Massa-
chusetts Historical Commis-
sion's analytical framework
for cultural resources relat
ing to the historical evo-
lution of cities and towns
within the Commonwealth.

"This is the first update of
the historic properties survey
for the Quincy Center area
since the 1986 community-
wide survey, 23 years ago,"
said Harrington. "We will
have this tool at hand for the
city, the Historical Commis-
sion and developers to use
as we consider redevelop-
ment in the downtown."

The project was funded
with grants by the Massachu-
setts Historical Commission
and the Quincy Community
Preservation Act. Mary A.
Smith, RLA. Principal Plan-
ner in the Quincy Planning
Department, applied for the
grants, and then organized
and directed the yearlong
survey project. Through her

Chrisom Family Benefit
Set For Sept. 25

efforts the City of Quincy
Planning Department was
awarded program grants to-
taling $29 .(XX).

The survey identi-
fies buildings and structures
that are architecturally and
historically significant in
the history and development
of the Quincy Center Zon-
ing Districts. The survey
includes both representative
and outstanding examples
of the building forms, types,
and styles present within the
district.

The consultants used a
variety of resources dur-
ing their research and were
grateful for assistance from
staff of the City of Quincy
Department of Planning and
Community Development,
as well as the Quincy His-
torical Society, the Massa-
chusetts Historical Commis-
sion and the Thomas Crane
Public Library. In addition.
The Patriot Ledger photo
collection offered a collec-
tion of old views of the Cen-
ter and Tom Galvin provid-
ed some interesting views of
Quincy Center from his vast
postcard collection.

The Survey Final Report
includes: an abstract, meth-
odology statement, street
index, a discussion of the
themes and contexts u.sed
to define National Register

eligible districts and areas,
as well as a GIS base map
showing the location of all
inventory resources.

of the study area, contain-
ing information on all of the

Drive area of Houghs .Neck.
Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Tuesda) .

The city is applying for
millions in dollars in state
and federal grant mone\
to initiate a permanent hx
to seawall problems, but a
short-term strategy is now
underwa) to ensure that
pipes and tide gates are clear
to prevent flooding issues

"This IS a long-standing
issue that we are commit-
ted to addressing once and
for all," Koch said "We are
putting resources in the right
place, and leaving no stone
unturned when it comes to
seeking federal and state
money for this important
work. Seawalls are vitally
important to our coastal
neighborhoods, and we need
to do everything possible to
protect this infrastructure "

Ihe cit\ expects to have
a neighb()rh(M>d meeting on
the issue in coming weeks
to discuss current and future

The seawall effort is part
of the broader reform effort

Tips For Choosing A Mortgage

(NAPS)- Doing a little
homework before choosing
a mortgage could help save
homebuyers plenty of cash.
Still, many consumers ac-
cept the first loan they're
offered, often not realizing
they may be able to get a
better deal .

On any given day, lend-
ers and brokers might offer
different interest rates and
fees to different consumers
for the same loan. In fact.

neither lenders nor brokers
are required to find the best
or most affordable loan for
you. According to the Fed-
eral Reserve Board, the best
way to avoid overpaying
for a mortgage is to shop
around. The Fed offers these
tips:

• Know What You Can
Afford— Review your

monthly spending plan to
estimate what you can af-
ford to pay for a home. Be

sure to include mortgage,
property taxes, insurance,
monthly maintenance and
utility costs in your calcu-
lation. It's also important
to check your credit report
to ensure all the informa-
tion it contains is accurate.
A higher credit score might
help you get a lower interest
rate on your mortgage.

• Know the Benefits and
Risks— Mortgages have
many features. Some have
fixed interest rates and some
have adjustable rates. Still
others have payment adjust-
ments or allow you to only
pay the interest on the loan
for a period of time before
you pay against the loan
amount. There are also cer-
tain loans that charge penal-
ties if you pay them off early
and some that have a large
payment due at the end of
the loan. A mortgage shop-
ping worksheet can help you
identify the features of dif-
ferent loans. You can find a

FLAVIN

sample of one at www.fed-
eral reserve.gov/pubs/mort-
gage/work sheet.pdf.

• Know Your Options—
You can get a loan from a
mortgage lender or a mort-
gage broker. Brokers ar-
range mortgage loans with
a lender, rather than lend
money directly. Be sure to
shop around for the best
deals.

• Get Advice You Can
Trust— A mortgage loan is
one of the most complex
and expensive financial
commitments many people
ever assume. It's OK to ask
for help. Talk with a trusted
housing counselor or a real
estate attorney who you hire
to review your documents
before you sign them.

Help! I was clean-
ling the bathroom
yesterday, and I noticed the
floor behind the toilet was
wet. I dried it out, but when I
came back a few hours later
it was wet again. What's go-
ing on? - Ella in Buffalo,
NY.

A^ It's hard to say with-
• out more informa-
tion, but you can make some
observations on your own to
determine what is causing the
wet floor behind the toilet.

First, do you notice con-
densation on the outside of
the toilet tank? During hot and
humid days, moisture can con-
dense and run down the sides
of the tank and onto the floor.
If this is the case, put a catch
tray on the floor beneath the
tank for now, and purchase
either a fitted terrycloth cover
for the outside of the tank, or
a fitted liner for the inside of
the tank (available at home-
improvement stores).

If condensation isn't a
problem:

• Flush the toilet and ob-
serve the underside of the tank.
Do you notice _ any leakage
during flushing - particularly
where the back of the bowl and
the bottom of the tank meet?

• Look for cracks on the un-
derside of the tank or the toilet
bowl .

• Check the water-supply
connection on the underside
of the tank. Is it damp or drip-
ping"^

• Likewise, check the wa-

ter-supply connection at the
shutoff valve (usually on the
wall behind the tank).

• Take the lid off the tank
and check the flapper valve
during a flush action. Is it prop-
erly seated before and after a
flush? Does it look damaged or
deteriorated in any way?

A loose water-supply con-
nection can be quickly tight-
ened - although care must
be taken when tightening the
connection to the tank, as the
porcelain can crack if it's too
tight. Turn off the supply valve
and flush the tank to empty it.
Using two locking wrenches
- one for the outer connec-
tion under the tank, the other
for the interlocking connector
at the bottom of the water inlet
tube -r adjust the connection
until water no longer leaks.

If the flapper valve or other
rubber or plastic parts appear
deteriorated, replace the valve
- or even the entire flush as-
sembly (kits are available in
the plumbing section of the
home-improvement store).

If the tank is cracked, it will
need to be replaced.

HOME TIP: Don t use
bleach-based cleaner cakes in
your toilet tank. Bleach cor-
rodes the rubber seals inside
the tank, .so they'll have to be
replaced far sooner than nor-
mal.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
It might not be wise to pursue
goals involving others, unless
you can stop impulsively re-
jecting new ideas. Either open
your mind or wait until next
week, when this "ornery" mood
passes.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
It's a good time for the Bovine
to be creative and practical for
yourself and your surroundings.
Shop wisely, not impulsively,
and keep your Bull's eye fo-
cused on quality, not quantity.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
You should feel more confident
about moving ahead with plans
that had to be delayed by an un-
expected turn of events. Also,
family matters might need more
time than first anticipated.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Be considerate of others as you
move into a new area in your
professional life. Take time to
meet people and discuss mutual
goals. The more you get to know
each other*, the better.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Cre-
ating a fuss could get your ideas
noticed quickly. But it would be
best to present your case, and
then wait for a reaction to follow
in due course, rather than try to
force it to happen.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Unkept promises might
cause plans to go awry this
week. You can either grumble
about people "letting you down"
or find a way to make the best
of it and move on. The choice is
yours.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Putting off making a
commitment early in the week
could be a good move. Best to
act when you know you're mak-

ing an informed decision. Ex-
pect more facts to emerge by the
week's end.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 2 1 ) A recent act of kind-
ness on your part could take on
special meaning this week. Also,
look for signs of ujx:oming
changes in both your personal
and professional relationships.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Many of
the tougher communication
barriers between you and oth-
ers in the workplace or at home
could begin breaking down this
week. Expect some surprises to
emerge.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Your "lough
love" attitude toward someone
you care for could be misunder-
stood. Try to be less judgmental
and show more consideration in
the way you relate to that per-
son.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) An unexpected
workplace challenge could be
daunting. But take what you
know (and you know more than
you realize) and apply it to the
problem, and you should see
positive results.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Recent relationship changes
for both single and paired Pisces
continue to influence much of
your week. Keep your focus on
developing the positive aspects
as you move along.

BORN THIS WEEK: You set

your goals with assurance and
influence others to follow suit.
You would be an excellent phi-
losopher and teacher.

Pass the
Chocolate!

Last year, medical re-
searchers said dark choco-
late was good for lowering
blood pressure. It's the an-
tioxidants that do the trick,
they determined, by increas-
ing nitric oxide and opening
blood vessels.

Now there's even better
news: Chocolate can reduce
the risk of dying from car-
diac problems, according to
an article in the Journal of
Internal Medicine.

Researchers in Sweden
studied men and women be-

anything, especially sweets,
can lead to weight problems.
And if you have another
condition such as diabetes,
you'll have to skip the choc-
olate.

If chocolate is on the list
of foods you must avoid,
there are other ways you can
get beneficial antioxidants
in your diet. A U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture study
lists foods having the high-
est levels of antioxidants:
small red beans, blueberries
(wild and cultivated), kid-
ney beans, cranberries, arti-
chokes, blackberries, prunes,
raspberries, strawberries.

eight years after they had a

heart attack, with special

emphasis on their diet - and

how much chocolate they

consumed. Both men and

women had the good results.

Specifically, chocolate
can cut the risk of dying
from heart problems by al-
most 70 percent if you eat
chocolate regularly. Snack-
ing on chocolate only once
a week can cut the risk in
half. Eating chocolate only
now and then still has an ef-
fect and cuts the risk by 27
percent.

There are cautions, of

plums.

If you can't eat chocolate,
ask your doctor about incor-
porating the above foods
into your diet, and get advice
about the quantities.

If you're one of the lucky
one who can eat dark choco-
late, ask about that, too!

CAUGHT IN A PINCH

As women in high heels can you give chiropractic a li^. We

attest, suffering for the sake of
fashion is a common occurrence.
The most recent fashion victims
may have been at a loss to
e.\plain so-called "tingling thigh
syndrome," which leaves them
with the feeling that their legs are
asleep. E.xperts enlisted to identify
the cause of this loss of sensation
found that constant pressure
exerted by overly tight jeans on
the femoral cutaneous nerve was
the culprit. This leg-numbing
condition, known medically as
"meralgia paresthetica," occurs
when the skin-tight denim pants
referred to as skinny jeans cut
off the femoral cutaneous nerve.
Wearing high heels increases
the prospect of tingling thigh
syndrome because the shoes tilt
the pelvis forward, increasing
pressure on the nerve.

Today's informative column

(NAPS) — Newborns
are not the only ones in the
family who need to be im-
munized against diseases-
most adults, especially new
parents and their family
members, do too.

That's the advice of doc-
tors at the Centers for Dis-
ease Control and Prevention
(CDC), who say adults and
adolescents should speak
with their health-care pro-
viders and make sure that
they are up-to-date on all
of their recommended vac-
cines. It's particularly im-
portant for those who have
close contact with young in-
fants to be vaccinated with
the tetanus, diphtheria, and
acellular pertussis (Tdap)
booster vaccine to help pro-
tect themselves and their in-
fants against pertussis, com-
monly known as whooping
cough.

While pertussis in adults
and adolescents may take
a milder form that is often
mistaken for a cold or bron-
chitis—the disease is serious

and can be deadly in infants.
In fact, data indicate that 90
percent of reported pertus-
sis deaths have occurred m
infants younger than four
months of age.

Sadly, when a source
could be identified, about
50 percent of babies diag-
nosed with pertussis had
contracted the disease from
their parents. The Hispanic
population — which is the
fastest growing and larg-
est minority in the US —is
particulariy hit hard by per-
tussis. Hispanic babies may
be at higher risk for con-
tracting pertussis, and the
risk of dying from pertussis
may be higher in Hispanic
infants than in non-Hispanic
infants.

"I didn't know how se-
rious pertussis could be
for an infant." says actress
and singer. Jennifer Lopez.
'"When 1 learned that 1 could
help protect myself from
contracting pertussis and
reduce the chance of spread-
ing the disease to my babies

New Technology Makes
Hearing Aids A Hot Accessory

(ARA) - When you think
of a hearing aid. the image
of a large piece of plastic
Sitting behind an ear likely
comes to mind. There has
been a stigma attached to
hearing instruments because
for many years they were
big, bulky and looked "old."
Today's hearing aids are
sleek, sophisticated pieces
of technology, and most are
neariy invisible when worn.

At its most basic, a hear-
ing aid amplifies sound
that enters the instrument
through a microphone and
then delivers that sound via
a speaker into the ear. Early
hearing aids fell far short of
the natural ear's ability to
tune out background noi.se
so that the listener can fo-
cus on particular sounds
such as speech. Historically,
some of the most common
complaints hearing aid us-
ers have include not being
able to hear in noisy situa-
tions; whistling (referred to
as feedback) w hen the wear-
er put on a hat or hugged a
loved one; occlusion - the
feeling of the ears being
plugged; and poor perfor-
mance when the wearer was
talking on the phone.

Today's top-line hearing
aids use the most advanced
technology available to ad-
dress all of the complaints of
hearing aid wearers. These
hearing instruments are like
small computers that use
complex algorithms to con-
stantly identify and separate
mcoming sounds.

For example, when the
hearing aid picks up ambi-
ent noise, it will turn off a
microphone collecting the
background sounds and turn
on a microphone to focus
the hearing aid on speech.
These hearing instruments
are designed to provide the
closest thing to normal hear-
ing possible, and they suc-
ceed in that task better than
ever before.

Hearing aids also incor-
pi^rate a number of other
interesting features no\\
that never would have been
possible before. For ex-
ample. Minnesota-based
Starkey recently introduced
T2 technology in its S Se-
ries instruments, which al-
lows wearers to use a cell
or touch-tone phone to con-
veniently switch modes or
adjust volume without using
additional hardware. Hear
mg aid wearers can choose
from a w ide variet\ of voice
options for their indicators
-like when the battery is
low -- including a number ol
languages and even golf leg-
end Arnold Palmer's voice

In addition, hearing aids
can now be fit more precise-
ly with a prescriptive ap-
proach, which uses hearing
and lifestyle assessments, to
help ensure that the instru-
ments match the individual s
heanng loss, lifestyle needs
and ear shape.

Duxbury Next Opponent; Game Set for Sept. 25

Cohasset Shuts Down
Quincy, 39-0

By SEAN BRENNAN

Cohasset High Schcxil
rained on the Quincy Presi-
dents parade last Friday
night in both high schools
2009 season-opener at a wet
and cold Veterans Memorial
Stadium.

The Skippers shutdown
Quincy and walked away
with a dominant 39-0 non-
league victory. Quincy (0-1
record) will have this week
off (bye), and must regroup
and refocus their efforts for a
Patriot League showdown on
Sept. 25 against powerhouse
Duxbury High School.

"We need to be better at
what we do on the field," said
QHS head coach Bill Rear-
don. "1 think what happened
last Friday was 1 .) Cohasset
is a very good team; it would
not surprise me to see them
win their league and make
the playoffs this year, and,
2.) We only have seven guys
who have any real varsity
experience on the team.

"This game was the first

time most of these kids have
played in a varsity football
game, but still, we need to
do a better job against Dux-
bury in a lot of areas. Cohas-
set is a good team and we
took our licks. Now we have
to turn our attention to the
next game."

Quincy was attempting
to give payback to Cohasset
this year following a 28-27
season-opening loss to the
Skippers in 2008, but this
time around, the Presidents
had no answer for senior
running back Dana Valen-
tine (13 carries, 90 yards,
three touchdowns). Valen-
tine scored on a 32-yard run
and on an 1 8-yard run in the
first-half, and at the halftime
break, Cohasset held a 23-0
lead.

The Skippers recorded
a safety in the third quarter
to extend their lead to 25-0
and a 35-yard touchdown
reception by John Maher,
a 30-yard fumble recovery
for a touchdown by Kyrell

Jaundoo and an eight-yard
touchdown run by Valentine
wrapped up the scoring in
the second half.

"Valentine is a hard
working player," said Rear-
don. "He, along with their
whole team, did a better job
all game than we did. He is
a strong runner and he broke
a handful of arm tackles. We
need to fix that moving for-
ward."

The Presidents received a
scare late in the fourth quar-
ter when senior quarterback
Lance Peterson was forced
to leave the game after jam-
ming his throwing hand on a
helmet.

"It was 25-0 in the fourth
quarter and I saw an oppor-
tunity to get Ryan Shultz
(backup quarterback) some
reps," Reardon said. "Lance
will be fine, but Ryan had
never taken a snap in a var-
sity game and it was the
right time to give him that
opportunity."

Quincy will have two

was a result of impressive
play on both sides of the ball
and it sets up North Quincy
with an opportunity to open
the season with two straight
wins. The team will play
host to Sharon High School
today (Thursday, Sept. 17,
6 p.m.. Veterans Memorial
Stadium).

"Getting that first win
takes the pressure off as we
move into our schedule," said
NQHS head coach Jim Con-
nor. "It is a great feeling to
have played so well against
Boston Latin, but, like I told

the team, we can enjoy this
win, but we have to move on
to our next game.

"It doesn't matter what
we did in this game when we
line up to play Sharon. Our
goal during this short week
is to make sure that the team
is prepared for this game.
TTie short week should not
be a problem for my team,
and it probably will not be
an issue for Sharon. Most of
my players have been in this
system now for three or four
years and we will be ready to
go and hopefully we can get

that second win.'"

Senior running back and
team captain Terrence Staley
was the offensive star for the
Red Raiders against Boston
Latin School. Staley rushed
for 2 1 2 yards and four touch-
downs, including TD runs of
50, 90, four and two yards.
His 90-yard touchdown run
in the second quarter opened
the floodgates as North
Quincy went into the half-
time break up 26-7.

Staley also scored from
four yards out before the
break and piled up the stats

with two additional scores
in the second half. His per-
formance rushing the ball
allowed senior quarterback
Mike Stanton (4 of 7, 51
yards) to manage the game
and limit turnovers. Staley
was also provided excellent
protection and space from
the Red Raiders veteran of-
fensive line as the team
rushed for close to 300 yards
in the game.

"Staley had a great game
and he got the stats to go with

his performance, but I need
to give credit to the entire of-
fense," said Connor. They
played with a physical pres-
ence, especially the offense
line which is anchored by
team captains A J Morfe and
Mike Benoit, and it showed
in the way we ran the ball all
game long.

"Mike Stanton played a
solid game as well. He played
a poised, clean game. He lim-
ited his mistakes and those
intangibles allowed us to
have so much success running
the football. Great game all-
around for the offense."

On the defensive side of
the ball, junior defensive back
Kyle McKay was a force.
McKay returned a fumble 30
yards for a touchdown in the
first half and also intercepted
two passes.

"Just like Staley. McKay
got the stats," added Connor.
"He returned a fumble for a
touchdown and had two inter-
ceptions playing at the nickel
safety. But he would not have
had those opportunities if it
were not for the play, both
physical and mental , from the
entire defense.

"Our defensive line brought
pressure and sacked their
quarterback, which caused the
fumble McKay returned for a
touchdown. Our linebackers'
play allowed McKay to be

m the right position tor those
picks and I thought we set the
tone early in the game that
we would be the more physi-
cal and the stronger team. It
showed in our defense's per-
formance on the field."

Senior defensive lineman
Owen Kilcullen finished with
five tackles for loss.

North Quincy will have
its hands full today against
non-league foe Sharon High
School. With its run game al-
ready in full effect, the team
will be looking to continue its
dominant play.

"As well as we played last
Friday we still have plenty we
need to work on." said Con-
nor. "We need to tighten the
screws and fix some of the mi-
nor problems we had against
Boston Latin. 1 thought we
were penalized too much and
we need to be 100% mentally
prepared if we expect to win
this game.

"I like what I saw in our
sea.son-opener and 1 expect
it to continue, but you can
never be satisfied. The team
is anxious to get back out on
the field and hopefully we can
make it two wins in a row and
go from there ."

A non-league game on Sept.

Home Opener for Both Teams

NQ Red Raiders Blank
Quincy Presidents, 5-0

The first game of the fall
season for the North Quincy
Red Raiders and the Quincy
Presidents was scoreless
until the 24"" minute when
NQ freshman Shannon
McCleary scored her first
varsity goal (unassisted)
after stealing a clearing
pass and beating Presidents
goalie Michaela Walker on
her short side. The Raiders
would tack on four addition-
al goals and won 5-0.

"1 have to give Quincy
some serious credit," said
NQ head coach Paul Brego-
li. "They came out with tons
of energy and adrenaline in
the first 15 minutes of play
and played us even or better.
It was great to get that first
goal and that helped us set-
tle in and we played a strong
game the rest of the way."

The momentum from the
McCleary tally reached the
next level when NQ junior
Jillian Carchedi, with an
assist from senior captain
Sammi Bonanni, scored on
a breakaway right before the
halftime break. With a 2-0
advantage, the Raiders had
little to complain about, but
Bregoli acknowledged that
his team missed opportuni-
ties to increase that lead.

"In the first half, Bonarmi
missed on a breakaway,
McCleary had a shot that
skimmed the cross bar and

Cara Murtagh had a header Cleary, scored the fourth
that their keeper saved," goal of the game and Mc-
Bregoli said. "We played Cleary (two goals, assist)

real well after those first 15
minutes and we kept it up in
the second half."

Murtagh, a senior captain,
collected a pass from fellow
captain Devon McKay, and
scored North's third goal of

plotted her second score of
the contest to close out the
scoring.

Sophomore keeper Sara
Sullivan finished with seven
saves in her varsity debut.

"Sara has worked hard

the game to open the second all summer getting ready for
half . Sophomore midfielder, the season," said Bregoli.

beautiful cross from Mc-

THE RAIDERS' Devon McKay heads the ball away from
Quincy's Janelle Leone. North won the season-opener for both
teams, 5-0.

"She is going to be good be-
cause she wants to get bet-
ter. It was a good start for
the team all around."

Defensively, Shannon
Coleman, Lindsey Reppucci
and Jaclyn Scuzzarella led
the Raiders.

Quincy played well
throughout the game but
could not get any offense go-
ing against the strong North
defense. Playing well for the
Presidents, a team which is
looking to move the pro-
gram forward after finish-
ing the 2008 season winless,
were seniors Amanda Sulli-
van (captain), Brianne Phel-
an (captain) and sophomore
Janelle Leone.

The Presidents are sched-

NQ Girls Soccer Talented
Mix of Young and Old

By SEAN BRENNAN

An intriguing mix of se-
niors and underclassmen
could give the 2009 North
Quincy Red Raiders girls
soccer program a chance
to be a special team this
fall. Coming off a season in
which they missed the post-
season for the first time in 1 1
years, scored just 19 goals
in 20 games and graduated
13 experienced seniors, this
year's team is already off
to a fast start (three straight
wins) and seems poised to
make noise in the competi-
tive Keenan Division of the
Patriot League.

"It has been a great start
to the year," said NQHS
head coach Paul Bregoli.
"Last year we lost our first
game and it put us behind
the eight-ball and we missed
the post-season because of
our slow start. We also had
trouble last season scoring
goals and we were shutout
nine fimes, already this fall
we have increased our goal
production and we are start-
ing to gain an identity. We
couldn't have had a better
start than the one we have
had."

Three games into the
schedule, two players, one
a senior and the other a

freshman, have provided
North Quincy with the scor-
ing punch that was miss-
ing in 2008. Senior captain
Cara Murtagh and freshman
Shannon McCleary (four
goals, three games) have
given the Raiders that goal
scoring punch that had been
missing last year.

"The key for Cara is that
she has been injury free,"
Bregoli added. "McCleary
has been a nice addition.
We saw that she was a goal
scorer during the summer,
but to her credit, she has
made the right plays and has
not shrunk from the pressure
of playing varsity soccer.
She has soccer instincts that
you cannot teach."

Other players to watch for
on offense in 2009 include
seniors Dana Djerf, Kristen
Peterson, Maria Dipietro
(captain), Emma Smith and
Colleen Cunningham, ju-
niors Jill Keezer and Jillian
Carchedi, sophomores Ka-
leen Campo, Courtney Tim-
mins, Jessica O'Donovan
and Jonlyn Lydon and fresh-
men Liz Kelly and Lauren
Campo.

"We have some flexibility
with our depth this year on
offense," Bregoli said. "The
maturity level of a player

like Jillian Carchedi is obvi-
ous, but so far we have been
able to get some pressure on
the opposing goal, and have
been able to put the ball in
the back of the net. That is a
good sign because last year
we had serious trouble scor-
ing goals."

With what looks like a
potent offense ready to con-
tinue its fast scoring pace.
North Quincy is also loaded
on the defensive side of the
pitch. The team returns all
four of its primary defenders
this season. Seniors Lindsey
Reppucci, Devon McKay
and Samantha Bonanni and
junior Shannon Coleman
should provide sophomore
goalie Sara Sullivan with ad-
equate protection from op-
posing offenses. It is a team
strength that Bregoli sees as
being a major factor for his
team moving forward.

"These four all returned
from last year's team and
they have all taken their
lumps and gotten better,"
he said. "We have allowed
one goal in three games, and
we have given Sullivan the
protection she needs in her
first year in goal. As we get
into the meat of our Patriot

this group."

Other players who will
see time on defense this year
include seniors Jackie Kel-
ley, Rachel Lucier and Mabel
Setow and juniors Maggie
Lynch, Courtney Byrne and
Sarah Gardiner and fresh-
man Jaclyn Scuzzarella.

After playing last year
in the Fisher Division of
the Patriot League, North
Quincy was moved into the
Keenan Division and will
be up against teams from
Duxbury, Silver Lake, Scitu-
ate, Hingham and Whitman-
Hanson in their bid for a di-
vision title.

* "There are some very
good teams in the Patriot
League, but the Keenan Di-
vision is tough," said Brego-

li. "Duxbury, Hingham,
Whitman-Hanson and Sil-
ver Lake are all very strong
programs, so it will be a real
test for us as we get into that
part of the schedule. We are
going to have to play hard
every game if we want to
be competitive in the league
this .sea.son.

"1 am confident that we
can play with every team
on the schedule. These kids
know they can be good and
we will be a tough team to
play."

North Quincy played
Hingham HS on Tuesday
and are scheduled to play
Whitman-Hanson HS at
home today (Thursday) at
3:30 p.m.

Communion' or 'the Eucha-
rist," and we may celebrate
it in many different wa^s
and we certainly hold many
different beliefs concerning
it. Nevertheless, this sacra-
ment makes all Christians

breads will be used for Holy
Communion.

tion of her recent trip to
Ecuador. She served as a

dor for six months, and re-
cently returned for a visit.

using Water and Sewer fees to pay for police and
fire department budgets.

FACT: Bill Phelan didn't budget any money for
his sweetheart Honeywell deal, including S4.1

• FACT: The State Department of Revenue ordered these shell games to stop when Mayor Koch
took office.

• FACT: Bill Phelan tried to prevent an independent review of City finances by signing a three-
year contract with his hand-picked auditing firm on New Year 's'Eve 2008, just days before leaving
office.

City finances "Deteriorated Significandy" under Bill Phelan.

PRELIMINARY DECISION - Kathy Dewey casts her ballot during T\iesday's preliminary
election for mayor and school committee at the Squantum Elementary School, polling precinct
for Ward 6 Precinct 5.

By LAURA (iRIFFIN
and ROBERT BOSVVOR I H

Incumbent .Ma>()r loni Koch and former
Mayi)r William Phelan easily turned aside
challenges tn)m two political newcomers in
Tuesday's Preliminary Election setting up a
spirited mayoral rematch Nov. 3

Koch, age 46. of 249 Newbury Ave.,
seeking a second two-year term, topped the
ballot in Tuesday's four-man mayoral runoff
with 7. 970 votes.

Phelan. age 49, of 86 Monroe Rd., who
was unseated by Koch in 2(X)7 in seeking a
fourth term, was second with 7,318 votes.

Koch's margin over Phelan was 652
votes. The mayor carried five of the citys
six wards, while Phelan won Ward 1 How-
ever, Phelan's margin m Ward 1 was the
widest - 508 votes. Koch's margins in the
other wards were 262 (Ward 2); 298 (Ward
3); 112 (Ward 4), 177 (Ward 5); and 311
(Ward 6).

Two Houghs Neck residents - making

(their first bid for elective office - could not

muster a serious challenge at the ballot box.

Paul Turowski, a Quincy police sergeant,
and Joseph O'Malley, a postal worker, fin-
ished third and fourth with 469 and 329
votes respectively Turoswki. age 49. of 125
Edgewater Dr and O'Malley, age 43, of 63
Island Ave. ran lowMsibility campaigns as
"political outsiders."

The ncucomers were easily out-financed
bv the cil\ "s belter knt)v\ n mavoral contend-
ers in the weeks leading up to Tuesday s

Council Salutes McGettrick As Beachcomber l\irns 50

By LAURA GRIFHN

Jimmy McGettrick has
heard thunderous applause
on thousands and thousands
of nights in the past five de-
cades.

But not tor him.

McGettrick 's seen a lot
of spotlights too.

But not for him.

City Council turned the
tables on McGettrick re-
cently when they put the
spotlight on him and saluted
him with a City Council
commendation as a Quincy
legend.

McGettrick owns the no-
frills, wood-shingled night-
club, the Beachcomber on

Quincy Shore Drive.

There, crowds have
cheered local and legend-
ary entertainers, jazz musi-
cians, rock-and-roll bands,
comedians, the Irish and the
country singers for five de-
cades.

Ward 5 Councillor Doug
Gutro presented the coun-
cil commendation in honor
of McGettrick and of the
Beachcombers' Golden An-
niversary.

"Thanks to Jimm^
McGettrick and his family,
Quincy, particularly WoUas-
ton Beach, has been home to
iconic musical and comedy
acts for more than 50 years

A FIERY MIX

October's birthstone, opal, is
hydrated silica, which is a hardened
gel of silica and water. When the
tightly packed silica spheres refract
light in precious opal, there is a play
of color (or "fire") that dazzles the
eyes. So captivating is this effect,
in fact, that the ancient Greeks
prized opals as much as diamonds.
Even today, exceptionally fine
black opals can be as valuable
as diamonds. The variety known
as "fire opal," which has red and
yellow as its dominant colors,
produces flame-like reflections
when viewed from different
angles. Other desirable types of
opals include "white opals," which
possess a good play of color, and
coloriess "water opal," which is
clear with flashes of color.

City Delegation Split On Appointment Of Interim Senator

Governor To Name Interim
Senator To Fill Kennedy Seat
Until Special Election Jan. 19

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Gov. Deval Patrick will
appoint an interim United
States senator to fill the
state's second senate slot,
left vacant by the death in
August of Senator Ted Ken-
nedy.

Supporters of the mea-
sure won a majority in both
the state's Senate and House
of Representatives, but not
with Quincy legislators.

The city's state legislators
voted 3-1 against the legis-
lation authorizing Patrick to
fill Kennedy's vacant senate
seat on an interim basis.

Senator Michael Morris-
sey voted against the legis-
lation in the senate's session
on Tuesday, but said he sup-
ports efforts to change the
law in the future.

"1 strongly favor an elec-
tion of ournext United States
senator," Morrissey said. "1
didn't want to change the
rules in the middle of a ses-
sion.

"The people of Massa-
chusetts should elect their
next senator," said Morris-
sey, citing the importance of
the healthcare issue.

Morrissey said Patrick's
appointment will have a
very short period of impact
as the current senate session
is nearly over and the "great
bulk of the session" is con-
cluded.

Morrissey noted that the
state would have been at
a greater loss in regard to
legislation if Kennedy had
died in January. ,

Under those circum-
stances, Morrissey said he
would have supported the
appointment.

In fact, Morrissey favors
reinstating the law that al-
lows gubernatorial appoint-
ments.

Prior to the senate vote,
Morrissey filed an amend-
ment, which would make
the legislation effective Jan.
20, one day after this year's
special election date.

That amendment failed
by a 32-7 senate vote.

A second amendment
requiring full disclosure by
governors of all meetings
and discussions with poten-
tial appointees, also, failed.

The House Bill 656 al-
lows Patrick to appoint a
senator for the interval until

THE HISTORY CHANM

• On Sept. 21, 1780.

American General Bene-
dict Arnold commits treason
when he meets with British
Major John Andre to discuss
handing over West Point to
the Bntish. In return, Arnold
was promised a large sum of
money and a high position in
the British army.

• On Sept. 22, 1862,

President Abraham Lincoln
issues a preliminary Eman-
cipation Proclamation, which
sets a date for the freedom
of more than 3 million black
slaves in the United States
and recasts the Civil War as
a fight against slavery.

•On Sept. 23, 1944, Pres-
ident Franklin D. Roosevelt
defends the honor of his small
dog, Fala, who had recently
been the subject of a political
attack. Critics had circulated a
story claiming that Roosevelt
had accidentally left Fala be-
hind while visiting the Aleu-
tian Islands, and that the pres-
ident sent a Navy destroyer,
at a taxpayer expense of up
to $20 million, to go back and
pick up the dog.

• On Sept. 26, 1957,

"West Side Story," composed
by Leonard Bernstein, opens
on Broadway. The play was
a reinterpretation of William
Shakespeare's "Romeo and
Juliet" transposed onto New
York's West Side. It tells the

tale of a love affair between
Tony, who is Polish Ameri-
can, and Maria, a Puerto
Rican, set against an urban
background of interracial
warfare.

• On Sept. 25, 1978, a

Pacific Southwest Airlines
jet collides in mid-air with
a small Cessna over San Di-
ego, killing 153 people. The
fuel in the jet burst into a
massive fireball upon impact,
and a witness on the ground
reported that she saw her
"apples and oranges bake on
the trees."

• On Sept. 27, 1989, ac-
tress Zsa Zsa Gabor storms
out of a courtroom in Bev-
erly Hills, Calif., where she
stood accused of slapping
Officer Paul Kramer during
a traffic stop and having an
open container and expired
license. Gabor violated a
court-imposed gag order by
calling a prosecution witness
"a little punk with a hairdo
like a girl."

• On Sept. 24, 1996,

bestselling author Stephen
King releases two new nov-
els at once. The first, "Des-
peration," was released under
King's name, while the sec-
ond, "The Regulators," was
published under his pseud-
onym, Richard Bachman.

In six weeks, Quincy voters will elect a mayor who will
serve for the next two years.

But when that term is up, voters will cast ballots not only
for mayor again but may also vote on extending the mayoral
term from two to four years.

That's because a proposal to double the number of years
the city's chief executive serves will likely be debated by
the City Council before the year is out.

And after researching the city's charter, it appears the
question of extending the term of mayor to four years will
be eventually rest solely in the hands of Quincy voters.

We support giving citizens the opportunity to vote this
measure up or down at the ballot box. However, this news-
paper does not support a four-year term.

Let's look at how this question could reach voters and
then some of the reasons we're against it.

According to the city's charter, there are two provisions
that spell out how the charter could be amended to adopt a
four-year term.

The first is a home-rule petition which would require a
2/3 vote of the city council, and approval by the mayor, the
state legislature and the governor. That's been tried - and
failed - before: in 1988 the measure was defeated by the
City Council. In 2000, the proposal passed the council but
did not advance in the state legislature.

Generally speaking, state legislators have become more
reluctant to debate and decide home rule petitions which af-
fect the scope of elected officials in a municipality, accord-
ing to one source who is close to the issue. They prefer a city
or town decide charter changes on their own.

Which brings up option number two: a citizens initiative
petition.

Such a petition would have to be signed by five percent
of the city's registered voters, which today would be 2,751
(five percent of 55,032). The deadline to collect and submit
those signatures would be 60 days before the date of a regu-
lar city election.

The petition would then be placed on the ballot and ask
voters this simple question: "Shall the term of office of may-
or of the city of Quincy be four years?" Yes to extend, no to
keep it at two years.

The earliest this binding referendum could be put on a
ballot would be the next city election in 201 1 , and not next
year's state election, because the charter stipulates "next
regular city election."

And if voters approved the referendum in 201 1 , it would
not take effect until 2013 - meaning the winner of the may-
or's race in 2013 would be the first chief executive to serve
foiu- years. His or her term would run until January, 2018.
(Of course, if the mayor at that time were re-elected in No-
vember, 2017, he or she would serve another four years.)

We think amending the city's charter is serious business
that deserves careful consideration amid compelling rea-
sons.

The present charter was adopted in 1916 when the city
switched to a Plan A form of government. Since that time,
over the past 93 years, there are have been 13 attempts to
amend the charter; eight have been approved.

The last charter change occurred in 1957 when the city
adopted a provision for six ward councillors. Before the
change, the city council comprised seven at-Iarge council-
lors. Today, we have three councillors at-large and six ward
coimcillors.

Here are some of the charter changes proposed over the
years and their fate:

• 1920 - provision of ward councillors - approved.

• 1926 - provision for preliminary elections - approved.

• 1938 - change to Plan E form of government - defeat-

• 1973 - increase number of wards from 6 to 8 - de-

• 1988 - increase term of mayor from two to four years
-defeated.

• 2{XX) - Increase term of mayor and city councillors
from 2 to 4 years (passed council, no legislative action) -
defeated.

City Council President Jay Davis, who raised the issue
of four-year terms in February of 2008, says another two
y^rs would increase stability for the city's govemment, al-
low long-term planning, and aid mayors in attracting talent
to City Hall.

He also says he wants open hearings on the issue before
the council session ends in December.

Perhaps the hearings would provide a better barometer
about how citizens feel about this matter. Maybe there is
a groundswell of support for it. Then again, there may not
be.

We know some former mayors support a four-year term.
And some city councillors do, too.

But it's the electorate's opinion that matters most. Voters
decide who serves as mayor. And it should be the voters'
decision if the term should be doubled.

It's been argued that changing the term for mayor -
along with city councillor - to four years would save the
city money in election costs.
Not quite.

The School Committee has staggered terms, primarily to
ensure some stability within the school system. Every two
years, three of the board's six seats are up for re-election.
And that staggered term was considered important enough
that it became part of the charter in 1953.

So, even if the mayor and council served four years, the
voters would still head to the polls every two years for a
city- wide election for school committee.

Changing the term of city councillors to four years and
not staggering the school committee terms
would require two more charter changes.
Other proponents of a four-year term
argue a two-year term is insufficient for a
mayor to accomplish an agenda.

"The trouble with two-year terms,"

says former mayor and four-term term

supporter Frank McCauIey, "is that you

get elected and before you know it, it's

election time again."

One staimch opponent of the four-year term was former

Quincy Sun Publisher Henry Bosworth, who emphasized a

two-year term provides accountability to the voters.

"The best argument against a four-year term is electing
the wrong mayor. Having to wait four years to correct an
election day mistake is a long wait. Too long," he wrote in a
Sunbeams colunm in February, 2008.

"A mayor (or councillor) doing his
(her) job should have no fear about facing
the jury - the voters - every two years,"
Heiuy added.

Dan Raymondi, who opposed the
4-year term proposal in 2(XX), summed it
up this way.

He called it "The Incumbent Protec-
tion Action."

"I see no good reason for four-year
terms," he says. "There would be less accountability to the
people. Four years would be a long time to wait to make a
change in the mayor's office if it was needed."

Some proponents note Weymouth and Braintree have
changed to a city govemment with a four-year term for
mayor.

"That's Weymouth and Braintree's choice but no valid
reason for us to copycat," Raymondi says.

And there are residents in those towns who would have
preferred two-year terms.

We support giving the electorate a chance to weigh in
on this issue if a citizens initiative petition collects the re-
quired signatures and the question is put on the ballot in two
years.

But we believe the current electoral system is not broken
in Quincy.

Don't take away the right of the people to make their
judgement every two years in electing the city's chief ex-
ecutive.

Scenes From Yesterday

-iiMw^ . '^SkiJb'

THIS IS A February 1936 postcard reproduction show-
ing the nearly completed $2.4 million Fore River Bridge.
Built during the Great Depression, the total cost was
paid out of Federal Public Works Administration funds.
State engineers designed the bridge and managed its
construction by the V. Bartletta Co. of Roslindale. It took
nearly two years to build and put to work hundreds of
unemployed construction workers. But at the time many
people and politicians were opposed to using federal
funds for local construction projects, and when com-
pleted, opening dedication ceremonies were delayed for
almost three months due to bickering between, federal,
state, city and town officials. Finally in May, Governor
James Michael Curley, escorted by an armed military

guard, stood at the center of the drawbridge among
several thousand celebrants to dedicate the bridge.
In his remarks, Gov. Curley boldly lauded President
Franklin Roosevelt and his New Deal, which provided
the funds. He added Quincy or Weymouth or Norfolk
County never would have built the bridge and so let us
'Hhank God for a man like Franklin Roosevelt." Now a
new bridge costing over $250 million is scheduled to be
built here. You wonder what happened to the blueprints
for the old bridge shown here that won an award in
1936 as the most magnificent bridge built in America
that year. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail tmgalvin®

Are You Okay' Program Assists Quincy Woman

A 93-year-old Quincy
woman was evaluated by
an emergency medical team
after officers from Norfolk
County Sheriff Michael G.
Bellotti's "Are You OK?"
program determined that
she needed help.

The elderly woman did
not answer her daily phone
call from the Norfolk County
Sheriff's Office on Wednes-
day morning. The "Are You
OK?" officer immediately
notified the Quincy Police,
who went to her home short-
ly after 7: 15 a.m. and found

her lying on the floor.

The woman declined
to go to a nearby hospital,
and the emergency medical
team determined she could
stay home after giving her a
thorough check.

"We're ecstatic that this
woman did not need to be
hospitalized," said Sheriff
Bellotti. "At the same time,
we're glad we could get her
the medical attention she
needed."

Each Morning, officers
from Sheriff Bellotti's of-
fice place calls to nearly 300

senior citizens living alone
throughout Norfolk County.
If the person does not an-
swer or indicates somethmg
may be wrong, the "Are
You OK?" officer summons
help.

"This latest case marks
the 63"^ time we have sent
help to people in need since
we started this program in
2001." Shenff Bellotti said.
"This program works ex-
tremely well and is impor-
tant in maintaining the well-
being and independence of
our beloved elders."

Bellotti said the Norfolk
County Sheriff's Office's
recent partnership with
Fallon Ambulance - whose
Qumcy headquarters now
serves as the base of opera-
tions for "Are You OK? " -
is working seamlessly. The
two public safety agencies
joined forces in July.

Anyone wishing to learn
more about "Are You OK'.'"
or to sign up for the program
should call the Norfolk
County Sheriff's Office at
1-866-900-7865.

disapproval of the proposal

"I'll do everything in m\ power to keep this station from
being built." said Robert Cerasoli . Democratic candidate for
State Representative in the First .Norfolk District. Rep Jo-
seph Brett, while affirming he was in favor of rapid transit
extension southward, stressed that. "We don"t need a termi-

Gov. Patrick Nominates
Paul Yee To Quincy District Court

Governor Deval Patrick
nominated civil and crimi-
nal attorney Paul M. Yee Jr.,
to the Quincy District Court
on Monday.

He also nominated Pa-
mela M. Dashiell to the
Dorchester Division of the
Boston Municipal Court

"1 have no doubt that
these nominees will serve
their courts and communi-
ties well," said Governor
Patrick said. "The depth and
breadth of their experience,
in combination with their
empathy and commitment to

justice, make them uniquely
qualified to sit on the BMC
and District Court."

Governor Patrick's se-
lections will go before the
Governor's Council for an
interview before a final vote
is taken. The council was
expected to meet yesterday
(Wednesday) to schedule a
hearing for the interviews.

A Brookline resident,
Yee will fill the vacancy that
opened with the retirement
of the Honorable Gregory
R. Baler. Yee began his le-
gal career in New York as

a Reginald Heber Smith
Community Lawyer Fellow
and then Staff Attorney with
Brooklyn Legal Services
before becoming a Senior
Attorney representing the
Boston Housing Authority
in the courts and administra-
tive agencies of the Com-
monwealth.

Before stating his own
practice, Yee served as an
Assistant District Attor-
ney in Suffolk County. Yee
graduated from Northeast-
em University and Suffolk
University School of Law.

STRATEGIES

IS COVERAGE CUTTING A GOOD IDEA?

Dunng these difficult hnancial
times, most people are doing
ever>thmg they can to stretch their
budgets. Some even give thought to
dumping their insurance coverage
as a means of savmg on the cost of
premiums. While doing so provides
some short-term gains, it also paves
the way for real financial disaster
in the event of an unexpected loss.
Even homeowners who have never
made a claim on their homeowners
policies cannot say with any sense
of assuredness that their good
fortune will hold out. If it doesn't,
homeowners stand one disaster away
from losing their home and all their
possessions . At that point , a premi um
would be considered a small price to
pay for being made whole again.

Dunng recessions, many people
either cut their spending in general

or postpone large-scale purchases.
Don't put your long-term financial
security at nsk. Be sure to maintain
your homeowner's insurance at
the right level. Please call JAMES
J. SULLIVAN INSURANCE
AGENCY at 617-328-8600 if you
have questions or if you would like
to schedule a consultation. We offer
home insurance, condo insurance,
and floater insurance. Our staff
provides competitively pnced
proposals for your consideration and
fast, courteous, efficient service and
claim processing. We are ItKated at
151 Hancock Street.

NOTE: The best way to cut
insurance costs involves conducting
a review with an insurance agent
to review your policies, reassess
your needs, and identify the most
suitable coverage.

Eleanor Roosevelt served as
First Lady for 1 2 years from
1933 to 1945, the years dur-
ing which the country sur-
vived the Depression and
World War II.

Bernstein's portrayal
begins with the shy, awk-
ward girl Anna Eleanor
Roosevelt bom in 1884, the
niece of President Theodore
Roosevelt.

The program progresses
through Eleanor's long stint
as one of the country's most

effective First Ladies and
concludes with her last doz-
en years when, as a widow,
she continued her work for
the United Nations, for civil
rights and for human rights.

Bernstein's bases her por-
trayal of Eleanor Roosevelt
on a review of the First La-
dy's private papers.

Club members invite the
public to bring their chil-
dren, their grandchildren,
and friends to the presenta-
tion.

as they learned of the secu-
rity issues.

Addressing the School
Committee, McCarthy out-
lined a number of dangerous
situations that concern him,.

After the meeting, Mc-
Carthy issued a statement.

'i would not want to
have any accidents in there
happen because of the con-
tractor and city's neglect."

"The gates have been left
open," McCarthy said, add-
ing that he actually bought
and padlocked several gates
around the high school after
walking around the site.

McCarthy,also,described
graffiti painted within the
fenced-off construction area
and said workers don't paint
graffiti onsite.

McCarthy said the graf-
fiti indicates that youngsters
are on the property and, pos-
sibly, in danger.

In the most serious inci-
dent, an intruder started up
a piece of heavy machinery
and crashed through a gate
onto Woodward Avenue.

Driscoll said that Gil-
bane instituted a sign-out
procedure after learning in
August of the problems.
Workers must sign out on

a central board and the last
worker is responsible for
locking down the area and
checking the gates.

According to Driscoll,
there are 10 to 12 contrac-
tors on site on a regular ba-
sis and roughly 1 20 workers
at any one time.

Driscoll said most of the
mcidents are not recent and
the incident with the heavy
machinery occurred more
than a year ago and the po-
lice handled it.

As for the padlocks,
Driscoll said, "We returned
them to him."

Driscoll, also, said there
would be 24-hour security at
the site once the glass is in-
stalled in the new building.

Several members of the
School Building Commit-
tee, also, believe that the se-
curity has been improved.

"Gilbane has instituted
a new policy," said Elaine
Dwyer, the School Com-
mittee's representative on
the School Building Com-
mittee. Dwyer described the
sign-out board that tracks
workers at the end of shifts.

of Staff for Mayor Thomas
Koch, also serves on the

NEUROPATHY IN THE FEET

.^IfeiOi., i^

Neuropathy leaves the feet
insensitive to pain. Without
this warning, the feet are in
danger of cuts, blisters, or
thickened calluses that can
lead to ulcers. Due to the lack
of feeling, these ulcers can
go unnoticed, possibly lead-
ing to infection. If you suffer
from neuropathy, it is impor-
tant that you inspect your feet
every morning and evening.
Look for cuts, blisters, or red-
ness. Calluses are a warn-
ing sign that an excessive
amount of pressure is being
put on that area of your foot.
Wear white socks as much
as possible, and avoid socks
with large seams. Choose
shoes with lots of room, and
look for foreign objects before
putting on your shoes.

Whenever our patients are
dealing with a medically relat-
ed problem, we will work with

all their healthcare providers
to ensure maximum treat-
ment and comfort. We don't
treat the entire body, but our
experience shows that foot
problems can affect, and be
affected by, the rest of the
body's health. We do treat
all manner of foot diseases,
conditions, disorders, inju-
ries, and bone deformities.
For a compassionate, con-
servative approach to foot-
care, coupled with advanced
pediatric technology, call us
at 781-986-3668, QUINCY
MEDICAL CENTER, for an
appointment. Office hours are
also available at 999 North
Main St., in the Randolph
Medical Office Building, and
Milton Medical Building in
Suite 221.

HINT: Neuropathy is most
common, but no exclusive, to
diabetics.

them."

Galanti, a member of
the Navy Light Jet Attack
Squadron 216, flew 97 com-
bat missions before being
captured in June of 1966
when his A-4r Skyhawk
was shot down. He spent
nearly seven years as a POW
in North Vietnam.

Stratton was part of 22
combat missions before his
Skyhawk jet went down in
thelbnkinGulfin 1967. He
spent more than si.\ years in
the "Hanoi Hilton," where
U.S. Senator and former
presidential candidate John
McCain was also held. Mc-
Cain has been invited to the
ceremony but has not yet re-
sponded.

Stratton, who graduated
from Georgetown Univer-
sity and Stanford, where

he earned a masters de-
gree, spent 30 years m the
military. He worked as a
drug abuse counselor for
members of the service after
retiring in 1993.

Brudno, an MIF gradu-
ate who majored in engi-
neering and aspired to be
an astronaut, was shot down
over North Vietnam in 1965
while flying a mission in an
F-4 Phantom. He was held
for 7-1/2 years, one of the
longest stints of any POW.
Brudno was in the same
building as McCain and the
two communicated for 3- 1 12
years by tappmg on the wall,
never seeing each other face
to face during the duration.

Brudno died in June of
1973, just four months after
being released at wars end
Brudno's widow, Deborah
Brudno. is hoping to attend
the ceremony.

Brudno's name was add-
ed to the Vietnam Veterans
Memorial in Washington,
D.(\, in 2(M)4. after a cam
paign by his brother Robert
and other former POWs.
including McCain. The tor
ture he suffered as a POW
contributed to his death,
they said, and was as much
a casualty as those soldiers
killed during the war

The monument will be
roughly the size of a cem-
etery headstone with Strut
ton's and Brudno's names
along with the inscription
"Never surrendered, never
brt)ken. never forgotten."
The A Monti Granite Co..
of Quincy will design the
memorial, which is believed
to be one of only a handful
of memorials in the country
that honor POWs freed at
the end of the Vietnam con-
flict.

SCHOOLS OR OUR KIDS, AND HE NEVER WILL!

As a parent of two public school children, a public school graduate and the brother of three sisters who
have taught for a combined 85 years in Massachusetts public schools, 1 know the value of a quality public
education. Not only did 1 benefit fi-om a diverse student body and committed teachers, my public education

Meghan, are benefiting from those same positive experiences in the Quincy Public Schools. As your City
Councilor, I have been a tireless advocate for our schools. Whether it has been the construction of the new
Quincy High School, planning of the new Central Middle School, or preventing cuts in school funding, I
have always been there as a voice for our children and their future.

Other candidates lor the Ward 4 Council seat can tall( about their commitment to our public schools, but only
one candidate has been there, everyday, through good times and bad times, supporting public education.

Non-Dairy Real Chocolate Cake

Most everyone loves anything chcKolate,
and I am no exception. The best chtKolate
cake ever was one in which my mother
always baked. And how lucky I am that she
wrote all of her recipes in a book, which I
treasure. She made everything from scratch
and was way ahead of her time regarding
healthy eating.

For instance, todayis recipe has no eggs,
milk or butter. But you will never know
it when you taste it. it is dark, moist and
delicious.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
REAL CHOCOLATE CAKE
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1-cup sugar

1 -teaspoon vanilla

1 Vi cups flour

1 -teaspoon baking soda

Vi teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon white vinegar

Vi cup vegetable oil

1-cup cold water

In a bowl place the flour, sugar, salt,
soda and cocoa, and blend together. Now
add all the other ingredients and beat until
well blended.

Place in a slightly greased cake pan and
bake for 35 minutes.

Add a favorite frosting.

You can also make cupcakes with this
recipe.

Fontbonne Academy Congratulates
Allison Foley '09

Allison Foley of Quincy is attending The University of Massachusetts
at Amherst this fall, having been accepted into their nursing program.
Highlights of her Fontbonne career include being the captain of the
volleyball team, a member of the basketball team, a member and
treasurer of National Honor Society, and a member of Spanish
National Honor Society.

"Fontbonne Academy offered me an opportunity to grow and develop
into my own person. I did not have to fit one stereotype, I was
the jock, the geek, and the occasional girlie-girl. Fontbonne fosters
an encouraging environment where each person embraces their
peers for their differences in race, religion, shapes, and sizes without
judgement. Fontbonne has provided me not only with a challenging
and demanding educational background, but a foundation where I
have developed from a teenager to a young woman, ready to face the
challenges ahead."

QMC Cancer Walk Sunday
At Pageant Field, Merrymount Park

Sarah May, MD, and
Gregg Miller, MD, will
serve as medical co-chairs
for the 12"^ Annual QMC
Cancer Walk Sunday, Sept.
27, announces Quincy Med-
ical Center Chairman of the
Board and QMC Cancer
Walk Founder and Chair-
man Bob Curry.

The cancer walk will
be held Sunday at Pageant
Field in Merrymount Park
in Quincy.

Registration begins at
8 a.m., and the four-mile,
non-competitive walk starts
at 9:30 a.m.

The QMC Cancer Walk
supports the Marie A. Curry
Fund at Quincy Medical
Center (QMC), which was
established in 1995 by the
Curry Family of Quincy as
a lasting, living memorial to
their wife and mother who
died of breast cancer.

The Curry family and the
City of Quincy's Commis-
sion on Women joined to-
gether in 1998 to create the
walk to support the Curry
Fund.

Now in its 12* year, the
QMC Cancer Walk sup-
ports the Fund's mission
to promote early detection
and prevention of a wide
range of cancers; to pur-

Dr. SARAH MAY

chase state-of-the-art medi-
cal equipment and to fund
cancer education programs
for caregivers and the com-
munity. The walk has raised
more than $ 1 .6-million for
the Curry Fund since its in-
ception.

"1 am very happy to serve
as medical co-chair for this
year's QMC Cancer Walk,"
says Dr. May, who special-
izes in medical oncology
and hematology with Com-
monwealth Hematology-
Oncology. "Clearly, this is
a very special event for me
because it raises money for
cancer education and pre-
vention right here in our
community. Many of my
own patients have benefited
from the programs support-
ed by the walk."

Dr. Miller, director of
Oncologic and Musculo-

Dr. GREGG MILLER

skeletal Imaging at Quincy
Medical Center and Assis-
tant Professor of Radiology
at Boston University, said,
"In addition to free commu-
nity cancer screening and
educational programs for
patients and families, the
QMC Cancer Walk also sup-
ports our annual Marie A.
Curry Breast Cancer Sym-
posium for community phy-
sicians, and provides funds
to purchase the latest imag-
ing tools, including our new
digital mammography and
stereotactic breast biopsy
equipment, which help us to
better diagnose and manage
patients with various forms
of breast cancer."

Maureen Glynn, a local
businesswoman and long-
time community activist,
has announced her candi-
dacy for Quincy 's Ward 6
council seat.

Glynn grew up on East
Squantum St., lived 21 years
on Dorchester St., and now
lives on Marina Drive with
her husband, Frank.

"1 grew up in Quincy and
1 understand what Quincy
taxpayers are going through.
I am concerned about where
our city is heading," Glynn
said, "and I believe I can do
a better job for the people in
my ward. Ward 6 residents
encouraged me to run be-
cause they want a stronger
and more dependable coun-
cillor who will speak up for
them especially on taxes."

If elected, Glynn said she
intends to hold the line on
property taxes. Unlike the
current ward six councillor,
Glynn said she pays proper-
ty taxes to the city and says
she is not interested in rais-
ing them. She said, "fund-
ing education, our public
services, senior programs
and public works must be
done through sensible bud-
get management" and she
"will not be a rubber stamp

New Telephone
Scam Numbers:

Quincy resident Ken Slattery called to inform me that
he received telephone solicitations from "877-888-8888"
and "202-747-7306" as shown on caller ID. Ken stated that
there was no conversation on the other end so he hung up.
After some research, I learned that both of these numbers
are used throughout the country and many people have ex-
perienced the same silence. Others have been offered credit
card "deals", auto warranty extensions and "cash advanc-
es."

The common theme here is that these callers are violating
"Do Not Call" lists. The "877" number is toll-free, while
the "202" exchange is from the Washington, D.C. area and
shows up on caller ID as "Tele Europe 2." This company
has a history of customer complaints for "dead air" calls
too. I received a call about the auto warranty extension and
when I asked which car they were referring to, the caller
hung up.

Some people stated on the Internet that they are so frus-
trated by the calls that they have used an air horn or a whis-
tle on the caller, who most likely is using a headset! So,
if you see these numbers on your caller ID, don't bother
answering.

A Job Well Done

On Monday, Sept. 14, at approximately 6:30 p.m.. Offi-
cers Edward Bagley and William O'Neil were dispatched
to Independence Avenue for
a man threatening to take his
own life with a knife.

Upon arrival, the officers
approached the door and an-
nounced, "Quincy Police" as
they knocked, but there was
no answer. After a few mo-
ments, a female came to the
door and waved for the of-
ficers to follow her. Since
she didn't speak English,
the officers did not know
what the problem was or

what they were walking into. The female led the offi-
cers to the third floor bedroom, then motioned for them
to go inside. As the officers entered the bedroom, they
found a 25-year-old male lying on the bed holding a razor
knife to his throat. Officer Bagley immediately removed
the female from harm and directed her down stairs.

The officers drew their weapons and ordered the male
to drop the razor knife but the male refused, instead, an-
grily telling the Officers to "shoot me." Officer Bagley
notified communications of the situation as they attempt-
ed to calm the male.

Sergeant Robert Bina, Lieutenant Richard McCusker,
Officer Joseph Paccioretti, Officer Barry DeFranco and
Officer David Zupkofska arrived on the scene minutes
later. At this time, the male got up from the bed and took a
few steps towards the officers in the doorway while hold-
ing the knife to his throat. The male looked directly at
Officer Bagley and in a desperate plea, he again asked the
officer to shoot him. The male gradually made his way
out to the hallway as the Officers diffused the situation by
backing away.

The officers continued counseling the male, but he
kept repeating that he wanted the officers to shoot him
and at one point, he threatened that he was going to come
at the officers and try to stab them so that they would have
to shoot him.

The male then demanded that his girifriend be
brought to him at 7:30 p.m., and if the officer did not
comply, he would force the Officers to shoot him. The
officers attempted to calm the male down, but now the
male was very agitated and increased the verbal threats.
It was clear to the officers on scene that the male was not
going to end the situation peacefully. Officer Paccioretti
and Sergeant Bina positioned themselves close enough to
the male and then sprayed him with mace.

The male then fled back into his bedroom and tried to
lock the door behind him, but the force of numerous Of-
ficers pushed the door open and after a brief struggle, the
male was disarmed and handcuffed.

The razor knife was recovered along with a wood chis-
el and a tire iron. The male was placed under arrest for
Assault by means of a Dangerous Weapon to wit a knife
and Resisting Arrest. The male was then transported
by Fallon Ambulance to the Quincy Medical Cen-
ter for a psychological evaluation, under p)olice guard.
Officer Bagley then interviewed the male's girlfriend,
who stated that they had dated for six years and broke up
recently.

She said that he never acted violently while they were
dating but after the break up, he did show up at her home,
where he also used to reside, with a baseball bat asking her
to marry him. She said that she received a telephone call
from him this night stating that he was going to her house
to kill himself with a knife. The male arrived at the house
and after a brief conversation with her, proceeded up to
the bedroom. She then called the Quincy Police.

The victim was given a Quincy Police Department Do-
mestic Violence form and advised of her Abuse Law Pre-
vention rights.

The victim declined an emergency restraining order.

City Delegation Split On
Appointment Of Interim Senator

*HIZZONER OF HOUGHS NECK' - Michael Berry (left) receives the Rounder Trophy as the
winner of the "Mayor of Houghs Neck" campaign. Presenting the award Ls last year's "mayor,"
Ralph Jacobs. Berry won the race for Houghs Neck mayor - and the bragging rights that go
with the honorary title - as the top fundraiser among four candidates. Berry raised $2,950;
the other three candidates - Kim Fallon, Steve Holler and Wayne Batson - raised a combined
$2300. Berry was "inaugurated" at the recent Houghs Neck Chowda Fest. Photos from the
Chowda Fest will appear in next week's Quincy Sun. Quincy Sun Photo/ Robert Noble

Tobin voiced similar
concerns. "1 don't like the
idea of appointing some-
one who's going to do what
they're told. I only want
someone elected by the
people."

"The decision was not
an easy one," said Mariano
who supported the measure.

"Massachusetts should
not be denied full represen-
tation for the four months in
the lead up to a special elec-
tion," Mariano said in his

the issues and described the

Koch issued the follow-
ing statement Tuesday, "1
have spoken directly to the
contractors supervising the
site about security related
issues and they have as-
sured us they will continue

"We made it very clear
that we expect the construc-

formal statement.

"Because of the recent
downturn in the economy,
the progress we have made
on the redevelopment of the
South Weymouth Naval Air
Station is in limbo," said
Mariano, Assistant Majority
leader in the House.

"The Southfield project
will be an essential engine
of economic development
for the South Shore. With-
out two senators strongly
advocating for the passage
of this legislation, the de-
velopment of this parcel and
the creation of much needed
jobs in this region are in
jeopardy."

In contrast, Tobin be-
lieves the move by to re-
verse the same legislation
approved five years ago
"fosters cynicism."

"This was seen as po-
litical gamesmanship," said
Tobin who described wide-
spread indignation among
his constituents.

As for the overhaul of the
national health care system,
Tobin said, "It's a good thing
the summer recess slowed
that down."

Tobin believes it would

be harmful to enact a bill
without pro[>er scrutiny, "...
to enact a proposal that's
not well thought out....
The legislative process is
designed to be deliberative
and thoughtful so we can fix
them."

House Bill 656 and the
senate version will reverse
state legislation enacted in
2004.

At that time. Mitt Rom-
ney was the Bay State's
governor and Senator John
Kerry was a candidate for
president.

The Democratic legisla-
tors enacted a statute revis-
ing the state's succession
laws. Under the change, a
vacant senate seat would
only be filled through an
election.

The change was made to
prevent Romney from ap-
pointing a Republican to fill
Kerry's senate position if he
won the presidency.

According to the Sec-
retary of State's office, the
2010 United States Senate
special election in Massa-
chusetts will take place on
Jan. 19, 2010, with a party
primary election on Dec. 8.

Koch, Phelan In Mayoral Rematch Nov. 3

Cont 'd From Fai>e I

night, Koch said, "I'm ab-
solutely delighted. We have
a great team. We have a
grass-roots organization.
We continue to take the high
road and are not slinging the
mud like my opponent. We
talk about the issues and talk
about a vision for this great
city.

Phelan said: "Vm am
thrilled. We had a pt>werful
opponent. He outspent us
3-1. He threw everything
but the kiichen sink at us
and we were able to come
within striking distance of
him. The primaries always
favor the incumbent. I'm
convinced that we'll take it
in November."

In the SchcK>l Committee
run-off, the field was nar-
rowed from eight to six can-

didates. The six candidates
who will vie for three seats
on the Nov. 3 ballot - in the
order of their hnish Tuesday
- are:

• Incumbent Anne Ma-
honey, 44, of 12 Ferriter St.
topped the school commit-
tee held with 9.384 votes.

• Emily Lebo, age 58, of
354 Highland Ave., direc
tor of Career and Vocational
Education for the Boston
Public Schools - 4,927
votes.

• Karl Rous , age 4 1 , of 8
Park St., who works in the
pharmaceutical industry -
4,8{X) votes.

• Barbara Isola, age 52, of
34 Randlett St., an assistant
district attorney in Plymouth
County -4237 votes.

• Matt Lockwood Mul-
laney, age 39, of 1 80 Glen-

dale Rd., a market manager
for Harvard Pilgrim's Mas-
sachusetts business - 3,886
votes.

• Rebecca McWilliams
age 26, of 24 Newcomb St.,
a licensed architect - 3,05.^
votes.

Not nominated were Mi-
chael Covais. age 51 . o\ 23
Pope St., a local attorne)
who polled 2.761 votes and
Steven Striffler, age 44, ot
63 Huckins Ave., who re-
ceived 1.504 votes.

The voter turnout - as
forecast by City Clerk Jo-
seph Shea - was 30 per-
cent (294570. Votes from
the cit) 's 30 precincts were
counted and finalized by
9:20 p.m. Tuesday. Shea
said there were no problems
with voting machines.

If Tuesday's preliminary

election was seen as the un-
dercard to the mayoral race.
then the mam bout will take
center ring in six weeks
Tuesday, Nov. 3.

.As Koch aims for a sec-
ond two-year term, Phelan

or's post from the man who
unseated him two years

Flynn Auctions Scituate Home For $918,750

Dan Flynn of Daniel J.
Rynn & Company in Quin-
cy recently sold a Scituate
bank-owned home at auc-
tion for $918,750.

The auction was conduct-
ed on the premises with over
50 people in attendance and
22 bidders registered. The
seller was Gerrity Company
Incorporated of Newton.

A couple from Quincy
were the winning bidders.
The high bid was $875,000
plus a standard 5% buyer's
premium for a total sale
pnce of $918,750.

The newly constructed
colonial home is located at
409 Hatherly RD, in Scitu-
ate.

The property is situated
on a hill providing ocean
views. It features over 4,400
square feet of living space
with a 3 car attached garage,
separate in-law suite/home
office, pnvate fireplaced

master suite, bamboo floors,
moldings, two staircases,
cherry kitchen, cedar clos-
ets, 2nd fl laundry and full
stairway to attic. The home
has 4 bedrooms and 3.5
baths. It's situated on a 1.2
acre lot.

Two aspects made the
auction more attractive for
bidders; it was bank owned
and it was selling absolute.
The property had already
been through the auction
foreclosure process with the
mortgagee buying it back.
Now, bank-owned, the seller
was eager to sell the property
through an absolute method
for an accelerated sale.

As an absolute auction it
had no reserve price so the
bank would have had to ac-
cept any bid no matter how
low.

portunity that our company

Team Plays Plymouth South HS Today at 6 p.m.

Red Raiders Rolling
Right Along

By SEAN BRENNAN

The North Quincy Red
Raiders may have smoked
Sharon High School (and
they did, 41-22) last Thurs-
day at Veterans Memorial
Stadium, but like any good
head coach, NQ's Jim Con-
nor knows that if his team
wants to compete against
the big boys in the Patriot
League's Keenan Division,
his team still has plenty of
things that need fixing.

"We have been penalized
a lot in our first two games,"
he said Monday. "We need to
get to work fixing that prob-
lem and we need to continue
to limit how many times we
put the ball on the ground.
As we get into the depth of
our schedule, good teams
will continue to capitalize on
these mistakes, and not only
that, these penalties and turn-
overs are drive killers."

Saying that, Connor has
his team rolling. The Red
Raiders (2-0 overall) opened
the year by blowing out
Boston Latin School, 33-7,
and after last week's perfor-
mance. North Quincy has a
great opportunity to start the
season at 3-0 when they play
host to Plymouth South High
School today (Thursday) at
6 p.m.

"1 am very happy with
they way this season has
started out," Connor said.
"For the most part we are
playing good football and
we are executing on offense
and on defense. We like to
play an aggressive game and
sometimes you can get burnt
playing that style of football ,
but the team is very confi-
dent right now and we are

starting to play with a bit of
a swagger."

Leading the charge in the
first two games for the Red
Raiders has been senior run-
ning back Terrence Staley.
After running rampant over
Boston Latin Schtwl (212
yards, four touchdowns) in
the season-opener, Staley
ran for 214 yards and four
touchdowns against Sharon
HS. For those keeping score
at home, that is 400+ rush-
ing yards and eight scores
in less than eight quarters of
football.

"Terrence is playing out of
his mind," said Connor. "He
has not only been unbeliev-
able running the ball, but he
has been just as good leading
the team. He deserves credit
for his play, but you cannot
overlook the play of our of-
fensive line and the play of
running backs Seyi Adesuy-
an and Mike Curren.

"Both of them already
have 100+ yards rushing
and, as a team, we have av-
eraged close to 300 yards on
the ground in our first two
games. That is a testament
to our veteran 0-Line who
have been getting hats on
hats so far this season."

Against the Sharon Ea-
gles, North Quincy 's defense
forced Sharon to go three-
and-out on the first series of
the game. Starting at their
own 37-yard line, the Red
Raiders put together an im-
pressive eight-play drive that
resulted in the first of four
Staley touchdowns.

The drive included six
runs (Staley, Curren and Ad-
esuyan all picked up yards)
and two crisp pass comple-

tions from senior quarterback
Mike Stanton, including a
beautiful 1 8-yard completion
to senior WR Paul Reamer
inside Sharon's 20-yard line
that set North up first-and-
goal. After a defensive off-
side penalty, Staley scored
at the 5:36 mark of the first
quarter.

Adesuyan converted the
point after attempt (PAT) to
make it 7-0.

The Eagles responded by
driving from their own 39-
yard line all the way to the
NQ 27-yard line. Following
a tackle for loss by senior
linebacker Tommy Petitti,
an incomplete pass and an-
other negative run play, Sha-
ron faced a fourth down and
long to go. Understanding
that Sharon would look to
pass, the Red Raider defense
dropped into a zone cover-
age and junior defensive
back Kyle McKay stepped
in front of an Eagle receiver
and returned an interception
70+ yards for a touchdown.

it was McKay's second
straight game with a de-
fensive touchdown and it
put North up 13-0 with 41
seconds left in the opening
quarter.

"We are playing aggres-
sive defense and it is high
risk/high reward," added
Connor. "Kyle has been
everywhere these first two
games. He already has three
interceptions, a fumble re-
cover and two scores. Some-
times playing so fast and
aggressive can bite you, so
we need to continue to con-
trol ourselves and be in the
right position to make the
big plays on defense."

Sharon would get no-
where on its first drive of
the second quarter and North
Quincy took advantage of a
muffed punt on fourth down,
and recovered the football at
the Eagles' 35-yard line. An
11 -yard run by Adesuyan
was followed by a 16-yard
completion from Stanton to
Reamer; Adesuyan punched
the ball in from five yards
out to give North Quincy a
19-0 advantage with 5:02
left in the half.

"Again, give credit to the
0-Line," Connor said. "AJ
Morfe, Mike Benoit, Keegan
Byron and Owen Kilcullen
have stepped up their games
this year. The line is opening
up holes to run through and
they are giving Stanton the
time he needs to make good
decisions."

Sharon came close to put-
ting points on the scoreboard
during their last drive of the
first-half, but an acrobatic
interception by Reamer in-
side the Red Raiders' ten-
yard line ended that threat
and allowed North to go into
the locker room holding a

in the first-half of last Thursday night's 41-22 non-league victory over Sharon High School.
The win pushed NQ's record to 2-0 on the young season.

19-0 lead.

"We played well in all
three phases of the game in
that first half," said Con-
nor. "The second half was a
little sloppy, but we did have
some of our jayvee players
on the field during their last
two scoring drives."

Staley would score three
more times in the second half
and North Quincy walked off
the turf at Veterans Stadium
at the end of the fourth quar-
ter a confident team.

"You always want to get
that first win, and we did,
and now we have two wins,"
said Connor. "We are in a
good position and we are
feeling good about the way
we are playing, but there is
work to be done to clean up
some of our mistakes.

"It is all about preparing
in practice, doing repetifion
after repetition and getting
better. This program strug-
gled for a long fime. North
Quincy had losing seasons
for many years and some
of the current players had
brothers' play on those teams
when losing games was ex-
pected. Now we can see that
losing culture starting to
change. We have reeled off
three straight successful sea-
sons, including two straight
seasons finishing over .500.

"This team knows we take
it one game, one week at a
time, and that is what we are
going to do this week; forget
about Sharon High School
and get ready to play Plym-
outh South High School. If
we confinue to clean up the
mistakes we have made and
if we continue to play ag-
gressive, we should do very
well this season."

Quincy Presidents To Lean
On Experienced Seniors

NQHS To Host College
Baseball Showcase

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy High Schcxil
girls' soccer team in 2009
will have its growing pains,
as the team, this fall, is a
mix of seniors and a core of
young juniors, sophomores
and one freshman.

Last week, the Presidents
accomplished a feat that they
hadn't done in over a year as
the team-defeated Everett
High School, 5-3, in a non-
league game. Senior captain
Amanda Sullivan scored two
goals and sophomore Janelle
Leone also found the back,
of the net twice. Senior Liz
Carella scored the team's
fifth goal and sophomore
Victoria Wallace finished
with two assists.

"The girls were elated
with the win," said QHS
head coach Don Martin.
"It was the first varsity win
many of these juniors on the
team have had. We outplayed
Everett for 60 minutes and
led 3-0 at the half. They
outplayed us for 20 minutes
and that is when they scored
their goals.

"We have a young core of
kids, but if we play a simple
game, fight for every piece
of turf and do the little things
correctly we will be a tough
team to play. "

A key to the season, espe-
cially with such a young and
inexperienced team, will be
Sullivan and fellow captains
Leslie Campbell and Bri-
anne Phelan.

"We need to get leader-
ship from the captains,"
Martin added. "Sullivan
leads with her performance
on the field and off. She is
technically solid and could
play any position on the
field. She was a big part of
bringing the team together
in the off-season and she has
been there for everything.
Her actions speak to her
commitment to the team.

"Brianne is an unbeliev-
able athlete. She could play
the entire 80 minutes if
asked and Campbell is a nice
player and a great leader."

According to Martin,
junior midfielder Courtney
Peterson should be a major
player this season for the
Presidents.

"Courtney is a key player.
She does a nice job of calm-
ing things down at the mid-
field position."

Sophomore Janelle Le-
one, who scored two goals
against Everett HS, is a
player to watch out for this
season and sophomore keep-
er Michaela Walker should

only improve as she gets
more experience playing
goalie at the varsity level.

Freshman forward Jenni-
fer Scamici is also a player
that fans of the program
should watch out for over
the next four years.

The Presidents opened
their season with a 5-0 loss to
North Quincy High School
and the team members suit-
ed up for that game included
seniors Leslie Campbell, Liz
Carella, Jennifer Conroy,
Jess Drago, Brianne Phelan,
Deven Riley Marinr, Aman-
da Sullivan, Bianca Bucheri
and Vicky Tang, juniors
Nichole Campbell, Amanda
Liu, Giovanna Maurano,
Courtney Peters and Jamie
Shaughnessy, sophomores
Amanda Hyslip, Janelle Le-
one, Julia Regan, Caroline
Spada, Michaela Walker and
Victoria Wallace and fresh-
man Jennifer Scamici.

Team Notes: The Quincy
High School girls' soccer
team will be hosting a fund-
raising Zumba Class on Sept.
27 from 4:30-6 p.m. at the
Bernazzani School in Quin-
cy. The cost is $5 for stu-
dents and $7 for adults and
QHS jayvee coach Casey
Tate will run the class.

The North Quincy High
School baseball booster club
will host one of the largest
college baseball showcases
in the Northeast on Sunday,
Nov. 23 in the North Quincy
High School gym. This will
be the second year in a row
that NQHS has hosted such
an event.

The baseball clinic is for
players in grades 9-12. It is
designed for players who are
serious about playing base-
ball at the college level.

The showcase will fea-
ture coaches from Division
I programs such as Pur-
due, Creighton, Sienna and
Harvard, as well as several

other Division II and III
coaches from the New Eng-
land area.

Seniors; Talented Underclassmen Leading Way

NQ Off To Strong Start

By SEAN BRENNAN

An impressive 2-1 Patriot
League victory over Whit-
man-Hanson High School
on Sept. I7,ah)ng with wins
over Quincy HS (2-1, Sept.
9) and Milton HS( 1-0, Sept.
12). has the North Quincy
Red Raiders off to a strong
3-1 overall start in 200^).

The team dropped a tough
3- 1 decision to Hingham HS
on Sept. 15.

Last year, behind the all-
state play of Shane Regan,
North Quincy made the
post-season tournament for
the first time in nine seasons;
the Raiders also earned the
program's first post-season
win (2-1 over Marshfield
HS) in over 20 years. The
goal, this fall, is to get back
to the dance and, so far, ac-
cording to head coach Rich
Hanlon, things are going as
planned.

"We have had a good start
to the season and we are on
our way to accomplish-

ing our goal of making the
post-season again," Hanlon
said Tuesday. "We battled
against Whitman-Hanson
and we battled and showed
determination against Quin-
cy and Milton. Even the
game versus Hingham, one
of the Patriot League's best
teams, was close until the
final 20 minutes.

"Last year we relied on
Shane's scoring, but this
year I expect us to be more
of a defensive-minded team
The Patriot League is tough
and because we changed di-
visions (from the Fisher to
the Keenan), we are going to
have to face teams like Dux-
bury, Silver Lake, W-H and
Scituate twice. It will be an
uphill battle in every game
we play, so it was good to
get off to a strong start."

The Raiders' defense
should remain the team's
strength this fall because the
squad returns senior keeper
Ryan Louis, along with four

experienced defenders in
seniors Kevin Ihernen and
Iim Gillis, junior Ricky
Long and sophomore Matt
Costa.

"Ryan is a tremendous
goalie and I would not be
surprised if he ends up be-
ing the number one goalie in
the Patriot League." added
Hankm. "One of our biggest
pluses is that we return all of
our defenders off last year's
team. Costa, Therrien, Long
and Gillis, as defenders, all
have that expenence play-
ing at a high varsity level.

"As you can see from
the scores of the first four
games, we are going to be
a defensive-minded team.
Those guys are going to be
key."

Although replacing

Regan's offensive produc-
tion (101 career high school
points, now attending Holy
Cross), is almost impos-
sible. North Quincy does
have talent on the offensive

QNQ Cross-Country Open
Season With Tri-Quad Meet

The combined, coed
North Quincy and Quincy
High School varsity cross-
country team competed in
its first Tri-Quad Meet of
the fall season on Sept. 15
against Silver Lake, Ran-
dolph and Rockland High
Schools. The meet was held
at Silver Lake Regional
High School in Kingston.

The final results from
the boys' meet were Silver
Lake 16, QNQ 47. QNQ 24,
Rockland 33 and QNQ 24.
Randolph 34.

The final results from the
girls' meet were Silver Lake
24, QNQ 31, Rockland 24,
QNQ 32 and QNQ 24,
Rockland 37.

According to head coach
Geoff Hennessy, highlights
from both tri-quad meets
included twin captains Dan
and John Green overcom-
ing getting lost in the heav-
ily, wooded course to score
top-ten positions that helped
lead the boys team to two
victories.

The girls team saw Erica
Brady finish first overall and
Mary Schwartz third over-
all, but the team managed
just the one win. The loss
of number three runner Ju-
lie Ross, who was out with
an injury, was the difference
for the girls' team, said Hen-
nessy.

The enfire QNQ team
turned in a much-improved
performance at the Bay
State Mclntyre InvitaUonal
late last week. This meet
was held at Franklin Park.

John and Dan Green
both cIcK'ked low 18-min-
ute times and Erica Brady
and Mary Schwartz ran their
best times on the young sea-

son. Brady was awarded a
medal for her top-20 finish.

In the freshman race,
Lia Bonoli, Kelsey Fischer,
Elizabeth Green and Bori-
ana Tzvetkova ran well and
in the boys' jayvee race,
Nick Gillespie and Chris
Anderson turned in solid
performances.

Members of the 2(X)9

While we might not want
to think about it yet, colder
weather is coming. Getting
ready for winter doesn't
have to be a big job if we
take it one step at a time.

• Groceries: Start add-
ing a few things to your
weekly grocery list so you
can prepiire meals when it's
too cold or dangerous to go
out. Aim for at least a week
of meals on hand. Canned
goods (fruits, vegetables,
soups, stews) or dry foods
(side dishes, drink mixes)
store well. Work from a
list and keep track of what
you're accumulating. Add
paper products, light bulbs,
flashlight batteries and pet
food.

• Get Out/Stay Busy: If
you attend exercise classes,
start asking about rides if
the weather isn't good. Col-
lect names and phone num-
bers of people in the class
who live near you. If you
meet regularly with friends,
make plans for continuing
to get together through the
winter. Consider starting a
new hobby or project for
the cold months. If you love

to read, stcKk up on a few
books.

• Stay Warm: If your liv-
ing space needs winteriza-
tion. make calls to arrange
for help. Replace caulking
around doors and windows,
install storm windows (or
the special pla.stic that you
shrink with a hair dryer) to
reduce drafts. If you live
in snow country, make ar-
rangements now to have
someone shovel or plow so
you're not caught with the
tirst big snow storm and no
way to get out. Look for
sales on a coat, gloves and
non-skid boots, if you need
them. Invest in a favorite
new sweater or vest to wear
around the house.

• Stay Healthy: Ask
your doctor if you should
get a flu shot. If the answer
is yes. put a reminder on
your calendar. Declutter to
make sure paths through the
house are safe.

New Developments In Treating Joint Pain

(NAPS)— For a grow-
ing number of Americans,
joint pain is a fact of life.
For some, it is bad enough
to affect their quality of life.
Fortunately, new methods of
treatment are increasing the
options available for treat-
ing the condition.

In a recent survey, 68
percent of people over the
age of 45 revealed that they
currently experience some
level of joint pain. For 42
percent of these individuals,
joint pain presents a more
critical problem, interfering
with ever>day aspects of
their life, such as interac-
tions with friends and fam-
ily, their job or maintaining
their home.

Physicians work with
each patient to determine
the best way to restore mo-

tion in the joint and reduce
pain, including medications,
physical therapy and sur-
gery. With a baby boomer
population of approximate-
ly 70 million people who
are accustomed to leading
an active lifestyle, more in-
dividuals are looking into
surgical treatment options
eai lier instead of living with
pain until an older age.

Advancements in joint
replacement surgery are
making surgery an increas-
ingly viable option earlier
in the progression of joint
pain for certain patients.
Most recently, customized
approaches to joint replace-
ment have helped these indi-
viduals return to their active
lifestyles while providing
increased chances for long-
term success, playing a key

role in quality of life both
now and in the future.

One such customized ap-
proach is the Biomet Sig-
nature Personalized Patient
Care system, which uses
MRI technology to create a
three-dimensional model of
the patient's joint anatomy.
Until recently, surgeons re-
lied on two-dimensional X-
rays for preoperative plan-
ning. However, this only
provides a ver>' limited view
of the joint structure and re-
quires the surgeon to make
determinations about the
size and placement of the
implant during the surgical
procedure.

The new technology
provides surgeons with the
tools to create custom po-
sitioning guides in advance

of the surgery, allowing for
procedures that are more
efficient and less invasive.
Additionally, surgeons ben-
efit from such systems or
guides because they assist in
aligning the joint implant —
the most important factor in
a successful total knee re-
placement surgery.

"With Biomet 's Signa-
ture system, surgeons have
access to interactive soft-
ware to help develop the
initial preoperative plan and
patient-specific positioning
guides for precise implant
placement." said Adolph
V. Lombard i. Jr., M.D., or-
thopedics clinical assistant
professor at Ohio State Uni-
versity.

Eye Exams Can Help Students Make The Grade

(NAPS)-Oneofthebest
ways to help children learn
at school is to take them for
an eye exam.

Millions of students are
thought to have a vision
problem that may inhibit
their ability to learn and that
could ultimately affect the
rest of their lives.

A new report from the
National Commission on
Vision and Health reveals
that most children .start
school without this im-
portant exam. The report,
"Building a Comprehensive
Child Vision Care System,"
finds that the current system
of providing school screen-
ings falls short. It offers rec-
ommendations to improve
children's vision.

"This report finds that vi-

sion screenings are not the
most effective way to de-
termine vision problems,"
said Deborah Klein Walker,
EdD., principal author of
the report. According to re-
search studies, a school vi-
sion screening, while help-
ful, is not a substitute for a
comprehensive eye exami-
nation.

"Screenings vary in
scope and are not designed
to detect many visual prob-
lems that can significantly
impact tasks like reading,
where more than clarity
of vision is needed," said
Edwin C. Marshall, O.D.,
M.P.H., vice president for
diversity, equity and mul-
ticultural affairs at Indiana
University. "Comprehen-

WALKING A MILE IN YOUR SHOES

Walking barefoot not only
increa.ses foot strength and
flexibility, it may also improve
balance and gait. In fact,
examination of human fossils
indicates that our ancestors' feet
were healthier prior to the wide-
scale practice of wearing foot gear.
However, walking around barefoot
is hardly practical in today's
world. Perhaps that is why there
are numerous shoe manufacturers
who claim to have developed
shoes that mimic going barefoot,
thereby giving their customers
the best of both worlds. Before
selecting such shoes, however,
consumers are advised to practice
caution, particularly if they have
previous injuries or biomechanical
or balance problems. Consultation
with the chiropractor can
help gauge whether barefoot-
mimicking shoes beneficially alter
the biomechanics of the wearer's
normal gait and stride.

www.irMdnMMioMnMMni

Walking barefoot can have
real health benefits. Doctors
of chiropractic have always
recognized, developed, and
provided a wide variety of
treatment options specifically
suited to your health
needs. Chiropractic is not
a replacement for drugs or
surgery. It is an alternative. At
the FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC. we urge
you to try safe chiropractic care
before submitting to surgery or
drugs - if possible. We're located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy,
where we will only accept you as

by eye doctors are essential
for clear, comfortable and
healthy vision."

According to research
studies cited in the com-
mission's report, .screenings
missed finding vision condi-
tions in one-third of children
with a vision problem and
most of the children who are
screened and fail the screen-
ing don't receive the follow-
up care they need. This de-
spite the fact that many of
the vision and eye health
problems affecting children
can be managed or even
eliminated if they receive
treatment right away.

The American Optomet-
ric Association (AOA) rec-
ommends comprehensive
eye exams especially for
children entering preschool
and kindergarten. Parents
are cautioned that most eye
problems can be present
without symptoms.

The group says early
identification of vision
health problems by an eye
care professional can result
in better school achievement
and overall health outcomes,
which can lead to prevention
of potential developmental

delays or, in some cases, eye
disea.ses.

According to the report's
data, 83 percent of children
with families earning less
than 200 percent of federal
poverty level have not seen
an eye care provider during
the prior year.

"Due to a failure to pro-
vide adequate vision care,
we're asking children from
low-income backgrounds to
compete with children from
a more advantaged back-
ground and to do so without
basic tools necessary for
success," said David Rosen-
stein , DMS , MPH , professor
emeritus, Oregon Health &
Science University, and a
member of the commission.
"The lack of vision care is
handicapping our most vul-
nerable populations."

A visit to the eye doctor
could be one of the most
important steps to help your
child make the most of his or
her education. To learn more

Someone once said that the greatest

need for a vast number of church-goers

is not more spiritual food but more

spiritual exercise. . . Millions of people

attend church every Sunday,listen to the

mostcommendabiesentimentsexpressed

fit)m the pulpit, give silent, or audible

consent, and then leave the church and

do not do anything about the truth they

have listened to and approved.

As Jesus sent out h^ disciples He said to them: "As ye go,
preach. . ."Only a comparatively few people are ordained to the
preaching ministry, but every Christian believer is supposed to
preach . Not necessariIy,of course , by gathering a group of people
around him and addressing a sermon to them, but rather by
his way to life preaching Christian faith, joy, and fellowship.

A man's actions and attitude constitute the most effective
sermon he can deliver. Yes, the greatest senn<Hi a man ever
preaches, whether he be a minister of a layman, consists not of
the word he utters, but the life he lives.

Couldn't it he said that if the lives we lead have serious flaws,
these flaws arp sermons also, and they reflect every little credit
upon us and to little good to others? Emerson was right when
he said what we are speaks louder than what we say. . .

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
An offer to help with a stalled
project should reassure you that
you have a workable plan in
spite of the problems in getting
it up and running. The week's
end brings more positive news.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
A past problem about a work-
place situation re-emerges early
in the week. Talking things out
helps ease tensions by midweek,
but some hurt feelings could lin-
ger a few more days.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Optimistic aspects dominate
your efforts. However, expect to
confront some criticism, some
of which might be valid, so keep
an open mind. But overall, it's
your views that will count.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Social interaction with new peo-
ple, especially on the job, could
be a bit strained in the early part
of the week. But the awkward-
ness passes as you get to know
each other better.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Ex-
pect news about a follow-up to
a workplace change that could
make a difference in your career
path. Meanwhile, new friends
widen the circle for all you So-
cial Lions who love to party.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Enjoy your well-earned
plaudits for a job well done. But
be aware that some people might
not share your colleagues' ad-
miration, and you might have to
work harder to win them over.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) It's a good week to
recheck your probably already
overlong "to do" list and decide

what to keep and what to dis-
card. Lose the clutter and focus
your energy on what's really
important.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) This is a good time
to take a new perspective on
what you've been offered. Ex-
panding your view could help to
uncover any plusses or minuses
that weren't apparent at first.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 21) Applying the
usual methods to this week's
unique challenges might not
work too well. Instead, use your
creativity to find a way to resolve
any impasse that develops.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) So what if fate
throws some obstacles in your
path this week? Just keep in
mind that the sure-footed and
resolute Goat can get past any
barrier by focusing on the goals
up ahead.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) This week calls
for better communication with
people in both your private life
and the workplace. Start by
asking questions, and then pay
close attention to the answers.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Potentially beneficial work-
place changes could be closer
than you realize. Make sure
you know what's going on so
that you're not left high and dry
when the good things happen.

BORN THIS WEEK: You re

not timid about pushing to have
your aims realized once you've
set your mind to accomplishing
your goals.

MCAS Scores * Heading In Right Direction'

By JOE REARDON

Quincy's third and sev-
enth graders scored above
the state percentage of stu-
dents passing the English
portion of the MCAS, ac-
cording to a 39-page report
package reviewed at last
Wednesday's school com-
mittee meeting.

Ninety-one percent of
Quincy's Grade 3 students
passed the EL A (English
Language Arts) section, just

above the state mark of 90
percent. The seventh-grade
mark of 94 percent was just
ahead of the stale showing
of 93 percent. Fifth graders
equaled the state percent-
age of 92, as did Grade 8 at
94. Grade 10 was just under
the state result of 96 with a
95 -percent showing.

Quincy's Grade 3 stu-
dents bettered the state per-
centage of students passing

"This is a perfect ex-

Friends, Flags, Bagpipes Greet Soldier After J 3 -Month Deployment In Iraq

Squantum Welcomes Home Sgt. Christopher Baker

B> LAI RACJRIIFIN

Some H{) friends, neigh-
bors and well-wishers gath
ered last I riday at the canon
at Squantinu'.s enlrvwa)
to welcome Sgt. I ' Class
Christopher Baker home
from 13-months' service in
Iraq.

'it was unbelievable;
it gave me goose bumps,"
Beverly Baker said, describ-
ing her astonishment at the
large crowd, the flags and
the cheers and the bagpipes
that welcomed her husband
back to the home zone m
Squantum.

Sgt. Baker arrived at Lo-
gan Airport just a few hours
before arriving in Squan-
tum.

On hand for the lirst hugs
were his wife and three chil-
dren. Matt, Christopher, and
(\illie

The family ate out and
then, near sundown, headed
home where Paula Glynn
and Steve Roche had orga-
nized a very special Squan-
tum welcome.

None of the family ex-
pected the greeting at the
great rock at Squantum's
entrance at the fork of
Dorchester St. and East
Squantum Street.

Added to the cheers were
the bagpipe renditions of
"God Bless America" and
the Marine Corps hymn
played by bagpiper William
McCallum.

Baker said their friends
Cjlynn and Roche, had asked
if the) could plan a special .
'welcome home' for Sgt.
Baker. She expected greet
ings from a few friends.

"Ihey made phone calls.
It just snowballed," said
Baker of the spontaneous
outpouring. "It sent chills
through me."

"We thought it would be
nice if we did a community
thing," Glynn said Tues-
day, citing the "power of e-
mails" m the 24 to 36 hour
window.

"1 thought it was great,"
Sgt. Baker said of his home-
town greeting.

However. Sgt Baker is
not one for the limelight, ac-
cording to his wife who said
he talked of all the veterans
who return every day and
deserve tributes.

"He feels very fortunate."
Baker said of her husband
who voiced his concerns
about the "young soldiers
(in the Middle East) who
don't get anything."

Sgt. Baker has served
28 years with the Army
Reserves and is currently
IRR (Individual Ready Re-
serves). He was called out
of semi-retirement for his
tour in Iraq.

Baker said she was sur-

prised when her husbanti
w as called to serve as he was
approaching his mid-forties

"I knew they were short-
handed." Sgt. Baker said
of his active duty call. He
served at an air base in Tal-
lil. south of Baghdad, and
said that he feels good that
the unit accomplished their
mission.

His most significant
memory of those many
months is the support of the
people at home.

"It's great to have sup-
port." Sgt. Baker said, add-
ing his tour would have
been much more difficult

"if it wasn't for the support"
back home.

His only hope is that
people try to offer "any type
of support" so that every
service member is bolstered
and encouraged.

"It makes the time go
by," said Sgt. Baker, a mail
carrier.

The Bakers have lived
in Squantum for nearly a
dozen years. Their oldest
son Matt, a graduate of the
University of Vermont, is
an intern at the State House.
Christopher, 20, is a junior at
Worcester Polytechnic Insti-
tute and Callie, 12, attends
Atlantic Middle School.

The city has won several
concessions from the devel-
oper of a Walgreens store
in North Quincy in a settle-
ment deal that will end a le-
gal fight over the project, of-
ficials announced Tuesday.

Under the agreement, the
store at the former Foley
Chrysler lot at the intersec-
tion of East Squantum and
Hancock Streets will be
smaller than typical Wal-
greens stores; it will not
have a drive-thru, it will
not be open 24 hours; and
there will be no curb cut for

a driveway onto HoUis Av-
enue, which was a critical
concern of neighbors, offi-
cials said.

The agreement was
reached after talks between
the developer and Mayor
Thomas Koch's administra-
tion, which took issue with
the original approval for the
project.

"We sat at the table, talk-
ed openly about our issues,
and reached a settlement
that does everything possi-
ble to protect the neighbor-
hood and minimize traffic

impact," Koch said.

The settlement deal,
which was expected to be
approved by the Zoning
Board of Appeals Tuesday
night after the Sun went to
press, comes at a time when
plans to rebuild the Squan-
tum and Hancock Streets in-
tersections continue to move
forward.

An engineering firm is
now working on final de-
signs for the project, which
will overhaul traffic condi-
tions at one of the most dif-
ficult - and important - in-
tersections in the city, Koch
said.

The project has been ap-
proved by the Massachu-

setts Highway Department
for funding thanks to the
work of state Sen. Michael
Morrissey and Rep. Bruce
Ayers. Koch said.

The mayor said he plans
to host a community meet-
ing on the project when de-
signs are complete in com-
ing months.

Koch called the project
"criUcal" and "long over-
due."

"We have a high school , a
fire station, several commer-
cial buildings all converging
and it's a major commuter
throughway. It is absolutely
vital that we address the
long-term needs of this in-
tersection," Koch said.

Propane Tanks Explode

As Firefighters Battle

stove apparently ignited last
weekend's fire on Mollis
Street where propane tanks
exploded in the garage and
flames seriously damaged
the adjacent two-family
home .

Deputy Fire Chief Gary
Smyth who supervised the
response to the two-alarm
fire reported that propane
tanks were exploding as
firefighters arrived and the
fire spread to the house.

The fire was at the house
and garage at 97 Hoi I is Ave,
North Quincy, opposite At-
lantic Middle School.

"We actually had two
separate fires going that
were threatening another
house," said Smyth who de-
scribed the wind whipping
the flames to adjacent build-
ings.

"I'm ver\ proud c^f them,"
Sm>th said of the *retight-
ers from ail over the city.

Gaptain Joe Jackson who
headed the first response
from the North Quincy sta-
tion, found "a lot of expU)-
sives" detonating.

Jackson said the police
had evacuated the site of the
fire and homes in the area.

rage and construction crews

"Everyone was out of the
house," Deputy Chief Paul
R. Griffiths said Mondav.
adding Red Cross personnel
were on hand for the resi-
dents.

Smyth evacuated firefight-
ers from the house before
the roof collapsed.

When the flames from
the propane flared up, de-
stroying the roofs and en-
dangering nearby homes,
Griffiths said the units threw
"water curtains" up to pro-
tect neighboring property.

Other buildings may have

cording to Griffiths.

the house," Griffiths said.

In a strange coincidence,
police dispatcher Michael
Bowes, a resident at the ad-
dress, answered the first call
before 1 1 p m. Friday night,
according to Lt. Charles
Santoro.

Police cleared all the
homes in the immediate
area.

"Quincy police took over
the investigation." accord-
ing to Griffiths. He said the
cause of the fire appears to
be accidental .

Engines and ladder trucks
from the Hancock Street
and Wollaston stations and
an engine from Squantum
responded to the first alarm.

No one was reported in- according to Griffiths who

jured and residents appar-
ently are staying with rela-
tives and friends. Griffiths
said, adding 'There's a cat
that was missing from the
second floor apartment.

"One of the (residents)
had been outside burning
logs in a small metal stove
when the garage caught

ly cooking on a grill, Grif-
fiths said.

THE HISTORY CHANM

• On Oct. 11, 1793, the

death toll from a yellow fe-
ver epidemic in Philadelphia
hits 100 per day after refu-
gees from a yellow fever ep-
idemic in the Caribbean fled
to the city. Philadelphia was
the seat of the United States
government at the time, but
federal authorities simply
evacuated the city in face of
the raging epidemic.

• On Oct. 10, 1877, the
U.S. Army holds a West
Point funeral with full mili-
tary honors for Colonel
George Armstrong Custer.
Killed at the Battle of the
Little Big Horn the previous
year, Custer's body had been
returned to the East for buri-
al on the grounds of the U.S.
Military Academy at West
Point, N.Y., where Custer
had graduated in 1861... at
the bottom of his class.

•On Oct. 8, 1918, during

World War 1, U.S. Corporal
Alvin C. York is credited
with single-handedly killing
25 German soldiers and cap-
turing 132 in the Argonne
Forest of France, for which
he earned the Congressional
Medal of Honor.

• On Oct. 6, 1926, Van

kee slugger Babe Ruth hits
a record three home runs
against the St. Louis Cardi-
nals in the fourth game of

the World Series. The Yanks
won the game 10-5, but de-
spite Ruth's unprecedented
performance, they lost the
championship in the seventh
game.

• On Oct. 5, 1947, Presi-
dent Harry Truman makes
the first-ever televised
presidential address from
the White House, asking
Americans to cut back on
their use of grain in order to
help starving Europeans. He
also requested that the pub-
lic voluntarily forgo meat on
Tuesdays, eggs and poultry
on Thursdays and save a
slice of bread each day.

• On Oct. 7, 1960, the

television program "Route
66" airs its first episode,
relating the roadside adven-
tures of Buz and Tod as they
cruised the famous highway
in Tod's Corvette convert-

The Undecided Will Decide

0?!k^fk

KOCH

PHELAN

Drive down any street in Quincy - from busy Sea
Street to quiet Churchill Road and roads in be-
tween - and there are plenty of political signs
touting the candidacies of incumbent Mayor Tom Koch
and former Mayor
William Phelan.

Some signs are
staggered - a blue |j»«i;*^
Koch sign then a
green Phelan sign and
vice versa - all the
way down the street,
one after the other.

Then there are mul-
tiple signs for one candidate for as far as the eye can see.
Turn the comer and there's a swath of signs supporting
the other candidate.

Signs do indicate some level of support for those seek-
ing public office.

However, don't read too much into those signs. Signs,
we know, can't vote.

But the people who agreed to have those signs on their
front lawns do.

I view political signs the same way I read preliminary
election results.

It's really the unseen - or the unknown - that matters.

In other words, the race for mayor - which tightened
after last Tuesday's preliminary election - will be decid-
ed by the undecided.

The undecided electorate, that is, who didn't vote on
Tuesday.

Voters who have not made a contribution to either
campaign.

Who don't place signs on their front lawn.

Who don't participate in preliminary elections.

But are expected to cast their ballot for mayor on Nov.
3.

In Tuesday's preliminary election, 29.45 percent of the
city's 55,042 registered voters. That's a total of 16,208
voters.

Koch and Phelan finished one-two in the four-way
run-off. Koch received 7,970 votes or 49.45 percent
while Phelan polled 7,318 votes or 45 .41 percent.

The other two candidates - Quincy Police Sgt. Paul
Turowski and letter carrier Joseph O'Malley - received
469 and 329 votes respectively. There were also 30 write-
ins and 92 blank ballots.

Most political observers agreed going into the prelimi-
nary election that Koch and Phelan would prevail based
on city-wide name recognition, campaign organization
and fundraising. The real unknown was in what order and
by how much.

One political observer called Tuesday's election " in-
conclusive."

I think last Tuesday's mayoral preliminary results in-
dicate one thing: a very close race.

And I think there were encouraging signs for both can-
didates after the votes were tallied Tuesday.

If you're a Koch supporter, you're probably happy the
mayor finished first in the preliminary by 652 votes while
winning 5 of the city's 6 wards (he also carried 5 out of 6
wards in 2007 and won by 2,051 votes overall.)

If you're a Phlelan supporter, you're probably happy
the former mayor finished within four percentage points
while winning 12 of the city's 30 precincts compared to
2007 when he won only 7 precincts.

If you're with Koch, you may point to the results in
Ward 6 Precinct 5, the polling precinct with the highest
voter turnout in 2007 and last Tuesday.

In 2007, Koch's margin in Ward 6 Precinct 5 - which
is Squantum - was 15 votes. Turnout was 68.15 percent,
the highest among the city's 30 precincts.

Last Tuesday, Koch edged Phelan by 2 votes in Ward
6 Precinct 5. Turnout was again the highest, 49.64 per-
cent. Like 2007, the race is apparently a statistical dead-
heat in that area of the city. Could that be a good sign for
Koch supporters?

If you're with Phelan, you can point to the vote in
Ward 1 . Two years ago, Phelan won Ward 1 by only 15
votes. Last Tuesday, he defeated Koch in Ward I - which

SHEA

is Houghs Neck - by 508 votes. Turnout in Ward 1 was
53.20 percent in 2007, 37.25 percent last Tuesday. That
may be a good sign that Phelan is building a base of sup-
port in that area of the city.

And what about those votes that Turowski and
O'Malley received? Together they tallied 798 votes.

Neither candidate should spin it that they would likely
go to them in the final.

The people who voted for those political newcomers
sent a message that they don't favor Koch or Phelan.

And who's to say they will even turn out on Nov. 3.

Regardless of perceptions, the reality now is the pre-
liminary election is over. The final election is in five
weeks. And that's really the only election that counts.

City Clerk Joseph Shea - who accurately predicted a
30 percent voter turnout for the preliminary - is forecast-
ing a 50 percent turnout Nov. 3. That
means another 20 percent of the city's
electorate is expected to go to the polls
and cast their ballots for mayor.

So the race - as far as my perception
goes - will come down to the 1 1 ,000 or
so voters who stayed home last Tuesday
and haven't shown any signs of interest
in the mayor's race.

Not yet anyway.

□

THE 50 PERCENT turnout prediction by City Clerk
Joseph Shea for the city's general election would be
about 6 percentage points higher than the 2007 election.
That was the year Koch unseated Phelan who was seek-
ing a fourth two-year term.

If Shea's forecast is correct, it would be the highest
turnout for a city election since 2001 when Phelan upset
then Mayor James Sheets by a scant 17 votes - the clos-
est margin in mayoral history. The turnout in 2003 was
35 percent when Phelan won a second term by defeat-
ing then Ward 6 Councillor Joseph Newton. The turnout
dipped in 2005 to 25 percent (Phelan was unopposed) but
rebounded in 2007 to 44.12 percent.

□

THE SCHOOL RACE final election is set with one
incumbent and five first-time candidates vying for three
seats Nov. 3 .

Anne Mahoney, the only incumbent in the field, scored
an impressive victory in the preliminary election by top-
ping the school - and city-wide - ballot with 9,384 votes
(27.08 percent). The rest of the field, in order of finish,
are: Emily Lebo (4,927 votes or 14.22 percent); Karl
Roos (4,800 votes or 13.85 percent); Barbara J. Isola
(4,237 or 12.23 percent); Matthew Lockwood Mullaney
(3,886 votes or 1 1 .21 percent) and Rebecca Mc Williams
(3,053 votes or 8.81 percent).

Candidates eliminated from the school race were Mi-
chael A. Covais (2,761 votes or 7.97 percent) and Steven
R . Strif fler ( 1 ,504 votes or 4 .34 votes) .

Tuesday's preliminary marked the third time Ma-
honey has topped a school committee ballot. In the 2005
preliminary election, Mahoney finished first in a 12-can-
didate field. In the final election that year, she topped the
ballot in winning her first term. She received 6,751 votes
or 21.44 percent.

The 2005 school committee race also featured a crowd-
ed field and a preliminary election. There were 12 candi-
dates on the ballot for the preliminary. After Mahoney,
the order of finish was: Celeste McGlone, Kevin Mulvey,
James Timmins, Ronald lacobucci, and Joseph Keegan.
In the final , Mahoney topped the ballot followed by Mul-
vey and Timmins. McGlone slipped to fourth place and
did not win one of the three seats. Rounding out the rest
of the ballot were lacobucci and Keegan respectively.

Steven Striffler Congratulates School Nominees

1 want to congratulate all
the candidates for school
committee who are advanc-
ing to the general election in
November.

Quincy will be well rep-

resented by whomever the
voters select.

1 entered the race late and
was only able to campaign
for a short time prior to the
preliminary election.

I enjoyed meeting the
voters during my campaign
and met some great people.
It was a wonderful oppor-
tunity that 1 am thankful to
have had.

Thank you to everyone

who supported me especial-
ly my neighbors m Squan-
tum.

Steven Striffler

Former Candidate

Quincy School Committee

A Thank You From Matt Lockwood MuUaney

1 am writing to thank
voters for advancing me to
the next round with almost
4,000 votes. In neighbor-
hoods where I've spent
more time, I was the second
or third-place finisher. I look
forward to getting to know
more Quincy residents per-
sonally in the weeks ahead.

I also want to thank all
the candidates for a cam-
paign focused on the is-
sues. School Committee is
a "team sport" where work-

ing together is key to get-
ting things done. The debate
we've had speaks well for
our ability to cooperate after
Nov. 3.

Last, I want to clear up
some possible confusion or
questions. First, I am run-
ning for School Committee;
sorry for the small print on
my signs.

Second, I am not putting
down anyone who sends
their children to private or
parochial school. Our public

schools exist in a market-
place for K-12 education.
Parents have the right and
duty to make the best choic-
es they can. I am running for
School Committee to help
make QPS as competitive as
possible in that market.

Third, since people ask
sometimes, my last name is
a combination of my wife's
name (Lockwood) and mine
(Mullaney). As I like to
joke, she was too liberal to
take my name, and I was too

conservative to take hers.
Our three children. Evie.
Emmett and Eliza, all share
that long last name.

Congratulations to Anne

Mahoney for her strong

support and to Emily Lebo,

Karl Roos. Barbara I sol a.

and Rebecca McWilliams

for their excellent show ings

as well. Thank you again.

He Supports Brian Palmucci For Ward 4 Councillor

I am writing to you as
someone who has been a
long time observer of Quin-
cy politics and as someone
whose family has served the
City of Quincy in both elect-
ed and appointed capacities.

Not since Paul Harold
have I met someone who has
worked harder to get elected
than Ward 4 candidate Brian
Palmucci .

1 first met Brian last No-
vember when he knocked on
my door to introduce himself
as a candidate for councilor.
At first, 1 thought who is this
kid knocking on my door in

November?

Then, when 1 met him
for a second time in April
and he informed me that
he had already knocked the
whole Ward, I started to pay
attention. Finally, this past

weekend, he knocked on
my door again and 1 am now
impressed.

To have walked the ward
three times and have person-
al knowledge of the issues
that effect me and my neigh-

bors is worthy of my vote'
That is why I'm switching
my support from Jay Davis
to Brian Palmucci for Ward
4 Councillor.

will host the fall Hazardous
Household Waste Drop-off
Saturda) . Oct. 3 in the rear
oflheDPVVat55SeaSt.

The drop-off event, man-
aged by Clean Harbors of
Biaintree, will begin at X
a.m. and end at 10 a.m

Residents are encour-
aged to arrive early as the
line often wraps around Sea
St. onto Southern Artery.

Proof of residency is re-
quired.

The C^ity of Quincy pro-
vides this free service to
protect the environment
and assist residents in the
proper disposal of hazard-
ous waste.

"The quality of life in
Quincy depends heavily
upon its residents being able
to do the right thing for the
environment and for each
other." said Mayor Thomas
Koch.

The next HHW' drop-off
event is planned for next
June.

Some of the eligible
items for disposal are oil
based paints, thinners, strip-
pers, oils and varnishes, ail

household cleaners includ-
ing drain and plumbing
cleaners, automotive fluids
including i>il and gasoline,
chemical fertilizers and in-
secticides, polishes, iii-cad
and lithium batteries, roof-
ing tar and driveway seal-
ants.

are all mercury containing
products such as thermo-
stats, thermometers. flut>-
lescent tubes. CFL (swirly)
light bulbs, button batteries
and mercurochrome. Once
released into the environ-
ment, mercury persists for
long periods of time and
does not degrade into harm-
less chemicals. Mercury can
damage the nervous system,
brain, kidneys, liver and im-
mune system Developing
brains and nervous systems
of children are very sensi-
tive to mercury.

ucts for the drop-off event

containers and tighten all

caps and lids. Sort and pack
items separately in sturdy
upright bt>xes.

Never mix chemicals.

ing of the event and drive

Fontbonne Academy Congratulates
Camille Rivero '09

Canfilile Rivero of Randolph is attending The University of Massachusetts
at Amherst this fall with plans to major in Political Science and to pursue
a career as a lawyer. Highlights of her Fontbonne career include being
involved in Best Buddies, a contributor to Stylus, the Fontbonne creative
newsletter, and a member of the National Honor Society. She was also
a Fontbonne Ambassador and a leader for the Association for Diversity
in Action.

"Fontbonne Academy has made me, as its motto states, "a woman of
courage made strong." It challenged me in ways that made me confident
in my abilities and my successes. The Fontbonne community welcomed
me and became my home away from home. It was a place where I was
encouraged and comfortable enough to always be myself. Fontbonne gave
me the opportunities to become a leader, to further develop my gifts and
talents, and has helped me become a strong, confident young woman
who has the courage and the means to face whatever lies ahead."

Auditor, Sex Offenders, Funds

Councillors Have Full Plate
But Little Time In Session

Barron Tapped For Fire Chief

By LAURA GRIFFIN

There are only six regular
meetings scheduled for this
session of the City Council,
but councillors have a full
plate of unfinished busi-
ness.

Under the charter. City
Council President Jay Da-
vis can call special meet-
ings, but all decisions must
be voted before the session
ends Dec. 31.

Councillors will be sworn
in January and there will be
at least one new member.
There could be as many as
three new councillors seat-
ed.

Long-time Ward 1 Coun-
cillor Leo Kelly chose not
to seek re-election this year
and two other councilors are
facing challenges.

Several upcoming issues
are described below.

Davis himself asked fel-
low councilors to review a
potential amendment to the
city's codes which would al-
low the sale of food at gas
stations. That provision was
defeated in previous council
session.

Auditor

Among the major issues
facing this council session is
the appointment of an audi-
tor to fill the positit>n vacat-
ed in July of 2008.

Councillor Michael

McFarland recently asked
councilors to devise a plan
for screening candidates,
voting the job description
and requirements and seek-
ing funding from the admin-
istration.

Sex Offender Laws

Councillors Kevin

Coughlin, Ward 3 and Doug-
las Gutro, Ward 5, want ac-
tion on their proposed ordi-
nance restricting residency
for sex offenders.

The proposal, first raised
in February, drew consider-
able debate during early dis-
cussions.

Finance Questions

Councillors Joseph Finn
and Daniel Raymondi , Ward
2, sought a detailed report
from the public works de-
partment on the use of em-
ployee vehicles, the pur-
chase of gasoline and the
number of city vehicles.

Ward 6 Councillor Brian
McNamee wants a full re-

view of revenues that the
city receives from the two
golf courses. Quarry Hills
and Furnace Brook Golf
Course.

To date, the city has re-
ceived over $2.8 million
from Quarry Hills Associ-
ates through a lease agree-
ment. The payments have
been steadily decreasing
from a high of $1.25 mil-
lion in fiscal year 2006. The
funds are allocated to city
departments and the Gen-
eral Fund.

In addition, McNamee
wants to discuss possible
new revenue for the city
from energy agreements on
the golf course.

Some 150 issues remain
in this session "Matters
Pending Before the City
Council."

The great bulk deal with
resolves already addressed
and minor issues involving
parking, traffic, and the in-
stallation of lights or utility
lines.

The council met Tuesday
night after The Quincy Sun
went to press.

Coni 'd From Page I

in 1992, captain in 19% and
deputy chief in 2002.

Barron was the most
senior deputy when Koch
tapped him to be acting
chief last year following the
retirement of Chief Timothy
Pettinelli , taking over during
the worst economic crisis in
more than a decade. Koch
said Barron has ably man-
aged the department and
maximized services during
the fiscal crunch.

"I am humbled by the
honor and look forward to
the challenge," Barron said.
"We have a great fire depart-
ment in Quincy, and that is
for one reason: the men who

lives on behalf of this com-
munity."

The other applicants were
Captain Edward Fenby and
Deputy Chief Gary Smyth,
who finished first and sec-
ond on the Civil Service test
respectively. No specific
scores were available at
press time.

Commenting on Barron's
appointment, Fenby said, "I
have no hard feelings. I'm
number one on the deputy
chief's list."

Fenby is seeking to fill
the deputy chief slot vacated
in August.

Smyth's attorney, Betsy
Ehrenberg, told The Sun she
believes the appointment

work here and risk their will be appealed.

"We're very unhappy
with the news. Unfortunate-
ly, it's consistent with the
mayor's pattern of appoint-
ments. 1 think the cifizens of
Quincy should be very con-
cerned.

"We can't say anymore
about it," Ehrenberg said.
"We have no direct informa-
tion as to how or why the
appointment was made."

Ward 3 Councillor Kevin
Coughlin, chairman of the
City Council's Public Safe-
ty Committee, said he hoped
the appointment "closes the
chapter on what has been a
contentious Ume in the de-
partment. We have a lot of
good men, including the new
chief, in the department."

$950,000 Grant For
Long Island Dock, Ferry

By JOE REARDON

struction of a Long Island

that lack other means of
transportation where a high
passenger demand already
exists.

State Rep. Bruce Ayers
sponsored two bills in Au-
gust that would establish a
commission to study the fu-
ture management and main-
tenance of Long Island and
Moon Island, and prohibit
future development on Out-
er Brewster Island.

State Sen. Michael Mor-
rissey has also been an ad-
vocate of utilizing ferry
transportation rather than
buses to Long Island.

"The bridge is in deplor-
able condition and it would
cost $50 or $60 million
to repair," Morrissey said
Tuesday. "We should move
to plan the process of elimi-
nating the buses.

"It's a bridge that essen-
tially goes nowhere."

The funds can be used for
capital improvements to ex-
isting ferry operations that
could increase the number
of riders, relieve congestion
or address environmental or
operational concerns.

STRATEGIES

WHAT DOES LONG-TERM CARE MEAN TO YOU?

When the term "long-term care"
is mentioned, many people tend
to think of nursing home care. The
fact is, however, that there are three
types of long-term care and services.
"Custodial care," also known as
supportive care, is the most common
type of care in this country. It
involves someone who does not have
medical training assisting with daily
activities. In addition, homemaker
services offer assistance with daily
activities such as shopping, cleaning,
and transportation, as well as provide
companionship. "Intermediate care"
includes occasional nursing and
rehabilitative care by skilled medical
personnel. Lastly, "skilled care"
is physician-prescribed care by a
skilled nurse or therapist on a 24-
hour basis. Clearly, there is more to
long-term care coverage than simply
nursing home care.

At JAMES J. SULLIVAN
INSURANCE AGENCY, we
provide truly full service for
both personal and commercial
accounts. We offer insurance for
households and businesses. As an
independent insurance agency, we
offer competitive rates and prompt
settlements of claims. Quotes on
auto and homeowners insurance are
available over the phone. Please
call us at 617-328-8600 for more
information or to schedule an
appointment. We are located at 151
Hancock Street. Smaner Choice!

NOTE: All three types of care
described above can take place
either at home, in an adult day-
care center, in an assisted living
facility, in a nursing home, through
hospice care, or in a continuing-care

retirement community.

FIRE SAFETY

by Captain Tom Lyons

Fire Prevention Bureau
Quincy Fire Department

Fire Prevention Week Oct. 10-16

Fire Prevention week
takes place Oct. 10 - 16.

The theme for this year
is "STAY FIRE SMART!
DON'T GET BURNED."
This week was established
to commemorate the Great
Chicago Fire, a conflagra-
tion that killed more than
250 people in October 1 87 1 .
The fire began on the 8'",
while much of the damage
was sustained on the 9'";
100,000 were left homeless
while the fire destroyed more
than 17,400 structures.

According to legend, a
cow belonging to Mrs Cath-
erine O'Leary kicked over
a lamp igniting the contents
of her barn . While historians
believe the fire started in the
vicinity of Mrs O'Leary 's
barn, over time, some be-
lieve the cow has taken a
bad rap, adding doubt to this
legend.

In 1920, President Wood-
row Wilson issued the first
National Fire Prevention
Day proclamation, while
October 9'", the date of
the worst sustained dam-

age from this fire, is always
within the dates of obser-
vance for this week. Fire
Prevention Week is the lon-
gest running public health
and safety observance on
record, (taken from a NFPA
Press Release)

The Quincy Fire Depart-
ment will observe the intent
of this week by holding an
Open House at Fire Head-
quarters, 40 Quincy Avenue,
between 10 AM and 2 PM
on October lOTH. All are
welcome while there will be
exhibits and demonstrations
of interest for both adults
and children. We enthusias-
tically encourage all to at-
tend while various agencies
will be present to answer
any questions you or your
children may have.

I've frequently written
about our underlying op-
timistic wish that tragedy
can't find us. Our frustra-
tions as firefighters occurs,
where we have witnessed
the tragedy of fire, the dev-
astation, both in lives lost
and property loss, and re-

alize that It can. Through
education in general, and
through outreach programs
such as the upcoming open
house, we attempt to bridge
the gap between that opti
mistic wish that says it can't
happen here, and the real-
ity of our experience which
conveys that it can, but this
is all you have to do to mini-
mize its occurrence or the
impact if it does.

Therefore, join us as we
observe Fire Prevention
Week, be part of our efforts
to "STAY FIRE SMART!"
Come share in this educa-
tional effort while sharing
in some lighthearted fire de-
partment fun. The fire appa-
ratus will be on display for
children. Sparky will make
an appearance as well.

We are here to serve you,
while this effort is one more
attempt at doing so. Please
join us in this proactive ef-
fort towards a safer com-
munity. We look forward to
meeting you, and sharing
in this day. See you on the

Layaway Now

for a Paid-For

Christmas

Even though the econo-
my appears to be springing
back on a number of fronts,
most people still aren't will-
ing to increase debt right
now. But the holidays are
coming, no matter the state
of the economy or your per-
sonal financial situation.

More and more stores are
offering layaway again, not
only for holiday shopping,
but for everyday items. Lay-
away lets you spread out
paying for your items with-
out the high interest of credit
cards.

With layaway, you'll put
down a small deposit that in-
cludes a service fee and then
make regular weekly or bi-
weekly payments until the
item is paid off. Even though
there is a small fee for hold-
ing layaway items, it won't
be nearly as much as credit-
card interest would be.

In the past, not all types
of merchandise could be
paid for by layaway. Nowa-
days, stores are more willing
to expand the types of items.
Layaway can be helpful for
everyday items, even if you
don't need to take the whole
eight weeks to pay for them.
If you want to hold an item

lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

at a sale price even for just
a few weeks, layaway is
one method of ensuring that
your merchandise will be
available.

The downside of lay-
away is that you can't miss
any payments or the mer-
chandise will be put back
on the shelves. There is a
cancellation fee if you don't
finish paying and want your
money back.

If you want to lay away
items, begin shopping now.
Many stores require a con-
tract, and most of them are
for eight weeks. By shop-
ping now, your merchandise
will be paid for just in time
for Christmas.

If your preferred stores
don't normally allow pur-
chases to be put on layaway,
call anyway to inquire if
they're doing layaways for
the holidays. Many of them
are. To get an idea of just
how many stores are offer-
ing layaway now, go online
and put "stores that offer
layaway" in a browser.

The biggest benefit of
layaway is that your pur-
chases will be paid for by
the time you get them, and
you won't end up suffering
the credit-card blues when
the bills come in after the
hohdays.

David Uffington regrets that he
cannot personally answer reader
questions, but will incorporate
them into his column whenever
possible. Write to him in care oj

Stadium Sports Bar And Grill
Opens In Downtown Quincy

Boston-based company,
Commonwealth Restaurant
Group, recently opened its
newest addition to the Sta-
dium Sports Bar and Grill
brand in Quincy.

The restaurant's opening
night began with a ribbon
cutting with Mayor Thomas
P. Koch and a special party
for local businesses and
members of the community.

Located at 1495 Hancock
St., the restaurant has been
remodeled and refurbished
with high-definition tele-
visions and two function
rooms.

The Grey Goose Owner's
Box was once the original
bank vault in the space com-
plete with the original steel
door. This room has three
high-definition televisions,
dynamic surround sound
and XBOX and Wii gaming

systems.

This location is the third
for Stadium Sports Bar and
Grill. Director of Opera-
tions with Commonwealth
Restaurant Group, Chris
DeVoe, said they also plan
to open a Stadium restaurant
in Worcester next spring as
part of an expansion plan
that would roll out 10 Sta-
dium locations over five
years.

"We are really fortunate
to be able to expand in this
environment," DeVoe said.
"With the right people and
the right concept, you can
set yourself up for success."

Stadium Sports Bar and
Grill hosted a job fair in Au-
gust and hired its 50 - mem-
ber staff from more than 280
applicants.

Commonwealth Restau-
rant Group is based in South
Boston.

STADIUM SPORTS BAR and Grill recently opened its newest
location at 1495 Hancock St., Quincy Center. Staff join (from
left) Chef Ned Nichols, Mayor Thomas Koch, Chris DeVoe, di-
rector of Operations; and Mark Normandin, general manager
for Stadium Quincy at a ribbon cutting.

Lenders are paying
closer attention than ever
to a borrower's financial
information. In many cases,
appraisals are also taking
longer and things like home
inspections and title search-
es take time. So there may
be no time to waste.

"Homeownership is an
investment in your future,
and the temporary $8,000
tax credit can help many of
today's buyers start building
that future," said Lawrence
Yun, chief economist for the
National Association of Re-
altors® (NAR). "However,
buyers should be realistic
about the time it could take
between beginning the home

search and actually closing
on the deal. Anyone who's
serious about taking advan-
tage of this tremendous op-
portunity should start the
ball rolling soon."

In some cases, buyers are
able to receive the tax credit
immediately through short-
term bridge loans and either
increase their down payment
or supplement their closing
costs. A Realtor® can tell
you if the bridge loan pro-
cess is available to you.

Not a first-time home
buyer? Not a problem. Cur-
rent market conditions have
created a wealth of advan-
tages for all of today's buy-
ers, including:

• Lots of choices— More
homes on the market means
buyers can negotiate better
prices and terms.

• Low interest rates—
Mortgage interest rates
remain historically low,
making borrowing more af-
fordable for potential home
buyers.

• Affordability — Home
prices are more affordable
now than they have been
in decades, according to
NAR's Housing Affordabil-
ity Index.

These conditions, how-
ever, are temporary. Recent
housing statistics and trends
show signs that the market
may have already hit bot-
tom. Prices in many areas
have stabilized and are ris-
ing again.

'"Today's buyers are stay-
ing well within their budget
and realizing this is an in-
credible opportunity to own
a home of their own," said
Yun. "There's never been a
better time for people to start
building their future through
homeownership."

Warm Up To Energy Savings

Know How

to Dispose of

Household Waste

Q, Occasionally in
• your columns,
you Ml advise readers to
'^properly dispose of a
chemical such as latex paint
or thinner. What constitutes
proper disposal? — Chuck
D. in Cincinnati

A^ Proper disposal of
• household waste -
especially waste that is toxic
to humans, pets and wildlife
and waste that does not break
down easily in the environ-
ment - is a very important
chore both for your safety and
the health of the environment.
That's why the majority of
municipalities in the United
States have hazardous-waste
disposal guidelines and fa-
cilities, as well as recycling
centers. Here are a few tips
to efficiently dispose of trash,
chemicals and used home-
repair items.

• Look up requirements
for hazardous-waste disposal
for your city or county either
by visiting the municipaJ Web
site or contacting city haJI.

• Find out when recycling,
yard waste (tree trimmings,
leaves, etc.) and hazardous
waste are either picked up or
where and when they can be
dropped off. Each municipality
has different rules and facilities.

• Store toxic items marked
for disposal in a tool shed or

corner of the garage, away
from the house and inacces-
sible to children or pets.

• Don't put toxic items into
the recycling bin, even tempo-
rarily. Half-empty bottles of
cleaner, for example, might
get mixed up with empty plas-
tic containers and forgotten.

• Used motor oil is often
accepted for recycling by au-
to-parts stores and some auto
repair shops. Contact nearby
retailers for information.

Remember that any chemi-
cal, even seemingly innocent
cleaners, can be harmful to
living creatures and the en-
vironment. A product labeled
as "nontoxic" should still be
carefully disposed of - for
example, dumping bleach
down a sink drain can wreak
havoc on a septic system.
Latex-based paints, thrown
into landfills with regular gar-
bage, can leach chemicals into
the ecosystem. Taking a few
extra minutes to sort out and
properly store and dispose of
these items will have a posi-
tive impact on your home and
the environment.

HOME TIP: Read the la-
bels of household chemicals
and home-improvement prod-
ucts for information on how to
safely dispose of those items.

repair tips to homegurulOOO^

(NAPS) — Besides ma-
king your home chilly in
the cooler months, an old,
underperforming home hea-
ting system can also leave
you with high energy bills
that stretch your household
budget.

According to Energy
Star, a home's heating and
cooling system accounts for
as much as 50 percent of
that home's energy use.

As system efficiencies
decrease and energy costs
increase, it makes sense to
replace an obsolete heating,
ventilating and air-conditio-
ning (HVAC) system with
new. more energy-efficient
equipment. To end up with a
system that best meets your
needs, consider the follo-
wing steps:

Inspect. To analyze your
home's current heating and
cooling system, invite a cer-
tified technician to inspect
and service the system.
North American Technician
Excellence (NATE)-certi-
fied technicians, for examp-
le, can identify existing or

potential problems, take
steps to repair or avoid them
and, if appropriate, recom-
mend new systems that bet-
ter match your heating and
cooling needs.

Learn. Become know-
ledgeable about efficiency
ratings, heating and cooling
capacities and other factors
that affect equipment per-
formance. It's also a good
idea to research the types
and brands of systems avai-
lable.

Consider where the sys-
tem will be installed. Do
you require an outdoor unit
or will- you need to install
the unit in a basement, attic
or closet?

Think green. Taking an
environmentally friendly
approach to equipment pur-
chases and installations can
improve the indoor air qua-
lity in your home and reduce
your carbon footprint.

Fortunately, it usually
results in increased energy
savings, too. So choose a
heating unit that's sized for
the heating and cooling de-

mands of your home, and
be sure your home has suf-
ficient insulation and the
ductwork is properly sealed.
Otherwise, you may lose
some of the efficiency your
new system offers.

Fmally, as you shop for
a new system, consider the
compact, 33-inch fine of
Coleman multi-position gas
furnaces. These new fur-
naces feature some of the
industry's highest annual

fuel utilization efficiency
(AFUE) ratings— as high
as 98 percent— and offer
EcoTrak technology, which
provides homeowners with
customizable airflow and
comfort based on the cli-
mate in which they live. In
addition, these models also
qualify for most local utili-
ty rebates as well as up to
$1,500 in tax credits under
the American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act of 2009.

Fireplace Safety Tips

Homebuying Workshop, Oct. 5, 7

Buying your first home?
Not sure where to begin?
What kind of mortgage is

many others when you at-
tend one of our workshops.

income, these seminars are
educational and recom-
mended for all potential first
time homebuyers. Partici-
pants will have the opportu-
nity to speak with a lender
to discuss many mortgage
options.

Also covered at the

aspects of buying a home,
importance of home and
lead inspections and other
information. This workshop

is a pre-requisite for first
time homebuyers mortgage
and grant programs, and is
open to everyone through-
out the state of Massachu-
setts, regardless of income.

The next workshop, spon-
sored by Walpole Co-Oper-
ative Bank, is scheduled for
Monday, Oct. 5, from 5:30-
9:30 p.m., and Wednesday,
Oct. 7, from 5:30-9:30 p.m.
The workshop will be held
at Walpole Co-Operative,
982 Main Street, Walpole.

Attendance at both ses-
sions is necessary to receive
your homebuying certifi-
cate.

There is a $15 fee per
person. Call 617-770-2227,
ext. 31 for additional infor-
mation.

(NAPS) -When tem-
peratures drop, few things
top nestling in front of the
fireplace to keep warm and
cozy. But experts caution fi-
replace owners to take a few
safety steps before stoking
the flames:

Get Ready

A wood-burning chim-
ney should be inspected .
every year and swept clean
if it has built-up soot depo-
sits. Look for cracks in the
mortar or crumbling ce-
ment. This is a warning sign
that the chimney may need
repairs. Keep the top of your
chimney clear of tree limbs
and debris to avoid any pro-
blems. Consider installing
a chimney cap to keep ani-
mals and leaves out.

Examine the flue to make
sure it is clear. To ensure
proper ventilation, check
that the damper is working
properly. When open during
fires, it should allow the
smoke to get out. However,
when there's no fire, the
damper should be tightiy
closed to keep the warmth
in and cold out.

Choosing Firewood

"Well-seasoned fi-

rewood" is wood that has
been thoroughly dried for a
minimum of six months and
stored properly. It generally

has darkened ends with vi-
sible cracks or splits and is
relatively lightweight. It's
easy to start, produces more
heat and burns cleaner, re-
ducing the amount of dange-
rous buildup. "Green" wood
has high levels of moisture
in it, making it difficult to
start. It's also less efficient
to bum than seasoned wood
because it smolders.
Buying Firewood
Hardwoods are recom-
mended as the best wood
for burning in fireplaces.
However, they caa harbor
insects, such as the Asian
longhomed beetle (ALB),
which lives in and feeds on
hardwood trees. These beet-
les have already caused the
destruction of thousands of
trees. Because of these bugs,
it's important that you not
move firewood. Purchase it
close to where you plan to
use it and make sure that it's
from local resources. Don't
carry it across county or sta-
te lines, because the ALB, its
larvae or eggs may be inside
and can infest healthy trees
wherever you take it.

At the end of the cold
season, be sure to bum all
the wood that you have, so
that any larvae in the dead
wood can't spread to living
trees.

A Job Well Done

On luesday, Sept. 22. at approximately 5:4.^ p.m.
Officers A.J. Carthus and
James Sullivan were dis-
patched to Independence
Avenue for a report of
a "possible breaking and
entering in progress."

Ihe caller told the
dispatcher that he was
home watching I.V.
when he heard a loud bang,
followed by some argu-
ing. The caller stepped out
of his second floor apart-
ment, looked down and

noticed that the side door had been kicked in He ob-
served that there was splintering of the d(K)rframe as
well as to the door and that the dead bolt was still in
the locked position.

The caller saw that the first floor apartment door
was also damaged and this was when he called the
Police.

Upon arrival. Officer Carthas went directly
back to the side door and confirmed v\hat the caller
stated. The Officer knocked on the adjacent apart-
ment door and a male opened the door. W hen asked
if he lived there, the male, who appeared intoxicated,
said, "no it's m\ friend's place." then provided tv\o
names, adding that the\ were not home.

When asked where the friends were, he said the\
were at a bar down the street Officer Carthas kept
his focus on the male (suspect) but did obser\e that
the door to the apartment had sustained some dam-
age from being forced open The >uspect was ques-
tioned about the damage to both doors and he re
sponded b\ shrugging his shoulders stating. "1 have
no idea." The suspect was asked if anyone had been
arguing inside the apanment and the suspect said
there was but "that was a long time ago "

Officer Carthas asked the suspect w hat time he ar-
rived at the apartment and he said 15 minutes ago.
which was consistent with the time the call was re
ceived. W hen asked how he knew that his friends were
arguing earlier, the suspect changed his statement,
now saying he had been there all da\

Officer SuJJivan arrived on scene and the caller
was then interv iewed while the suspect w as held The
caller said that he was on his ct)uch watching J \
when he heard a loud bang causing his dog as well
as the 2 dogs inside the first flt>or apartment to go
"crazv ." Ihe caller said he thought there was arguing
but left the hallwav to call the Police The Officers
brought the caller out discrectlv so that he could see
the suspect. The caller said he never saw him before
todav. Although the Of liters had reason to believe
that a crime occurred. the> challenged the suspcc! to
call his "friends" in order to determine if he belonged
in the apartment, but he was unsuceesstul The Oiti
cers told the suspect that the> would bring him down
to the bars and it was at this time that the suspect be-
came unruly and said. "I don't even have a reason to
be here."

The suspect, a 44 vear old Boston resident,
was placed under arrest fi>r "Breaking and Hntenng
in the Daytime and Malicious Destruction o\' Proper-
ty over S25i) (damage to side door and frame as well
as the apartment door).

The suspect was given his Miranda rights and after
waiving them, he admitted that he did not live in the
apartment and kicked in both doors.

Mark Spendlove First- Year Head Coach

Senior Class To Lead
Team in 2009

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Presidents
are off to a slow start this
season, currently holding
a 0-5-1 overall record, but
according to first-year head
coach Mark Spendlove, it
has not been because of a
lack of effort.

"The effort has been
there from the boys," said
Spendlove. a native of Eng-
land who moved to Quincy
four years ago and. before
taking the Quincy High
School job, was an assistant
coach for the Haslern Naza-
rene College women's soc-
cer team. '"There is never
any doubt about the team's
effort on the held, but a few
times this season, a lack of
concentration has cost us.""

Quincy opened the sea-
son with a tough, but hard-
fought. 2-1 defeat to North
Quincy High School. Since
then, the team has lost four
and played to a tie.

"Honestly, we have been
inches away from turning
over the page and picking up
some wins," added Spend-
love. "We are a couple of
plays away from getting
over that hump and the goal
is to steadily improve as the
season moves along."

This year's team is load-

ed with experienced seniors
(13 of them), and leading
the way are Chris Clayton
(captain, sweeper), Cedric
Dybaud (captain, midfield-
er) and John Lewis Sherkel
(forward).

Through six games,
Sherkel leads the Presidents
with five goals, while Dy-
baud has scored once and
Clayton has improved the
team"s overall defense.

".Fohn Lewis is a force
to be reckoned with."" said
Spendlove. "Dybaud is
a great leader and a tire-
less worker and Clayton
has probably been the
pick of the bunch and has
played outstanding for us at
sweeper."

The rest of the senior class
includes Thomas Aronne
(defense). Romaine" Brown
(defense), John Conroy (de-
fense), James Finn (captain,
defense), Alex Marculetiu
(defense), Jonathan Mullin
(midfield), Steven Peterson
(captain, defense), Gustavo
Portillo (midfield), Filippe
Silva (forward) and Toby
Tang (forward).

The junior class will be
led by Martin Conroy (mid-
field), Alex Giurca (keeper)
and Armagan Sezer (de-
fense) and the four sopho-

mores on the team include
Nicholas Dolan (midfield),
Antonio Foleis (keeper),
Kevin Pattemo (forward)
and Jev Vaflor (midfield).

"We are not looking
ahead to next year, buf we
will be giving some playing
time to the younger players
this season,"' added Spend-
love who has been coach-
ing soccer for 20 years.
"Our goal is to reorganize
the program and build some
structure. We will build
from the bottom up. Our
jayvee team is strong and
we have some good fresh-
men to also build with.

"This season, playing
in the Patriot League, we
are going to have to play
at 1007r. all of the time
against these teams. If we
can keep our concentration
for 80 minutes we should be
able to compete with the po-
tential to win some games
moving forward."

Quincy played Mid-
dleboro High School on
Tuesday and will host Sil-
ver Lake Regional High
School today (Thursday)
at 3:30 p.m. The Presidents
will play North Quincy
High School on Oct. 7 at 7
p.m. at Veterans Memorial
Stadium.

Young Team Gaining Experience

Presidents Fall To
Duxbury HS, 33-6

K^<X<XX<^X'O</<X/<><Xa>>:<XXaX'0<>X<^

Sun Sports

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Presidents
challenged the defending
Division 2A Super Bowl
champions Duxbury High
School throughout the first-
half of last Friday's Patriot
League football game, but
eventually succumbed to the
Green Dragons, 33-6.

Quincy (0-2 overall, 0-1
in the Patriot League) trailed
7-0 after the first quarter, but
found the end zone in the
second quarter when junior
running back Ronn News-
ome scored from one yard
out. The Presidents gained
possession of the ball fol-
lowing a recovered fumble
on a kickoff at the Green
Dragons' one-yard line.

Duxbury's Matt Hallisey
caught a 23-yard touchdown
pass from quarterback Matt
0'Keefe(9for 13. 138, two
TDs) in the first quarter, the
Green Dragons' Matt Savard
returned a punt for a score
in the second quarter and
Henry Buonagurio scored
from five yards out, giving
Duxbury a 20-6 advantage
entering halftime.

'The game was a little
bit closer than the score

shows," said Quincy head
coach Bill Reardon. "It was
a 13-6 game late in the first
half, but we fumbled the
ball away in our own end
and they scored late in the
half to make it 20-6.

"We played hard and ac-
tually outhit them for most
of the game, but I have a
couple of juniors and soph-
omores who were playing
in only their second varsity
game and we made some
mistakes. With the inexperi-
ence we have on this team
we cannot have turnovers
and penalties. Those are
things we need to work on
before we play Hingham on
Saturday."

Duxbury upped their
lead to 33-6 in the third
quarter. Savard caught a 35-
yard pass from O'Keefe and
Kane Haffee scored on a 23-
yard rush.

The Presidents are young
this year on both the offen-
sive and defensive side of
the ball and, so far this fall,
they have had trouble point-
ing points on the board and
stopping opposing teams
from scoring. Through the
first two games Quincy has

scored six points and have
allowed 72 points.

"We need to have all 1 1
guys on the field doing their
job," added Reardon. "Guys
need to know what they
are supposed to be doing
and everyone needs to get
on the same page. We are
working on that and we will
keep using repetition to get
it right."

The Presidents were
also hit with the injury bug
against Duxbury, a factor
that forced Reardon and his
staff to move some guys
around.

"Our starting center Rick
Friedman was injured and
he couldn't play against
Duxbury," said Reardon.
"We had to move in some
new players and move guys
around. Even though we
have struggled in these two
games the effort is still there
and the team is remaining
positive. If everyone does
what they are supposed to
do, we will get better.

"It doesn't get any easier
this week against Hingham,
but we are working on im-
proving as a team."

The team will host

The North Quincy Red
Raiders watched as Plym-
outh South High School
scored 28 unanswered points
and walked off Veterans Me-
morial Stadium with a 28-
12 non-league victory last
Thursday night.

The Raiders (2-1 overall)
were looking to start their
season at 3-0. After driv-
ing 85 yards on II plays,
the last one being a 14-yard
touchdown pass from senior
quarterback Mike Stanton
to senior wide receiver Paul
Reamer, to start the game.
North Quincy jumped out to
an early 6-0 lead.

On this drive, the Red
Raiders used a similar for-
mula to the one that had
earned them two straight vic-
tories to start the year. The
team ran the ball to set up
the pass. Running backs Seyi
Adesuyan and Terrence Sta-
ley churned up yards, while
Stanton picked his spots to
throw. The combination re-
sulted in a 6:45 minute drive
that ate up most of the first
quarter.

With the North Quincy
defense holding Plymouth
South 's offense in check,
the offense tacked on to the
6-0 lead in the second quar-
ter. Stanton finished off a
66-yard drive with a quar-
terback keeper from a yard

Over $2,000 Raised to Fight Autism

Beechwood Knoll,

Merrymount Neighborhoods

Play for a Great Cause

Big Stretch of Games On Horizon

Red Raiders Searching
For Consistency

Neighbors from the Mer-
rymount and Beechwood
Knoll sections of Quincy
got together recently at Pag-
eant Field to play in a char-
ity Softball game in an effort
to help fight autism.

The 2"'' Annual "Friends
Fighting Autism" softball
game was a competitive
and friendly way for these
neighbors to get together
and raise over $2,000 for
autism research. Last year's
game ended in a 12-12 and
this year's game, again,
came down to the last at-
bat. Merrymount came out
on top, 9-8.

Chris Bell, captain of the
Merrymount team, had a
well-balanced team of older
Softball veterans and young-
er talent, and Rick Radzik,
captain of the Beechwood
Knoll team, had a handful
of players from the Quincy
Police and Quincy Fire De-
partments.

Merrymount jumped out
to an early 4-0 lead on the
strength of home runs from

Ralph Richardson and Scott
Kelley. With Bell pitching
for Merrymount, he received
great defense from Coleman
McCarron, Dana Gillis,
and PJ, Mike and Mike, Jr.
Hussey, but the Beechwood
Knoll team, as they did in
2008, came back to take the
lead following a six-run fifth
inning.

John Cristiani, George
Wirtz, Sean Glennon and
Paul Brown had big hits for
Beechwood Knoll in the
fifth frame.

Larry Tagliere, Merry-
mount's shortstop, tied the
game at 6-6 with a two-run
home run, but Beechwood
regained the advantage, 8-6
heading into the seventh in-
ning, after hits from Radzik,
Paul Keams, Jamie Green,
John Kelly and Bob Bell.

Merrymount's Paul Ryan
had a big hit and scored the
tying run, a run that sent the
game into the last inning all
knotted up at 8-8.

In the last inning, Beech-
wood Knoll put two on with

two outs, but could not push
across the go-ahead run.
Merrymount's Larry Ta-
gliere led off the last inning
with a hit and came around
to score the game-wining
run on a Mike Pratt single to
left field. Final score: 9-8.

Joe Connor, Sean
O'Malley, Shane Hurley,
Mark Veasey and John Ryan,
the three Hussey 's, Coleman
McCarron, John Smith and
Scott Kelley played well for
the Merry mounters.

Paul Hellmuth, Barry
Glynn, Paul Matthews,
Mike McLaughlin, Matt
McLaughlin and Aidan
Brown played well for
Beechwood Knoll.

The two neighborhoods
would like to thank Paula
Glynn, Erin Nickerson and
their great crew for provid-
ing the PR, and food and
beverages for the kids in at-
tendance. Thanks also go out
to 98.5 'The Sports Hub"
and Quincy Mayor Thomas
Koch for help in providing
the raffle prizes.

Hosting Tri-Quad Meet On Oct. 6

Quincy-North Quincy Drop
Pair at Hingham HS

The combined, co-ed
Quincy-North Quincy cross-
country teams dropped a
pair of meets at Hingham
High School last week.

The boys' team lost 16-
47 to a strong Pembroke
High School team and was
defeated by Hingham High
School, 20-41. Q-NQ's top
runners, once again, were
John and Dan Green, both
finishing in the top-ten.

On the girls' side. Erica
Brady continued to lead the
Patriot League as the top
runner as she went wire-to-

wire to win her race. Mary
Schwartz finished fourth
overall.

Quincy-North Quincy
continues to be bitten by the
injury bug as five girls had
to sit out these two meets
with various illnesses and
injuries. Julie Ross, the
team's number three runner
who has been out recently
with a thigh injury and a
cold, should return soon.

The team hosted Hanover
High School on Tuesday af-
ternoon.

"We see a chance for

wins against Hanover," said
Q-NQ head coach Geoff
Hennessy. "A number of
kids all had problems early,
which means we'll be healed
up and healthy later in the
season when the big meets
come up. We are working
hard and are optimistic."

The team's next major
invitational is on Oct. 17 at
the Catholic Memorial Meet
in Boston.

The team will host a
Tri-Quad Meet with Dux-
bury and Middleboro High
Schools on Oct. 6.

By SEAN BRENNAN

North Quincy will be
looking for some consistency
as the team begins a stretch
of seven winnable games be-
tween now and Oct. 12.

The Red Raiders (3-4
overall) have dropped four
straight games (Hingham,
Whitman-Hanson, Silver
Lake and Duxbury) after
starting the fall season on a
three-game winning streak.
If this team has any chance
of advancing to the post-sea-
son (a preseason goal), they
will need to remain positive
(which they are) and will
have to start finding the back
of the net more often (which
they are not).

"The next seven games
are going to be critical to our
success this season," said
head coach Paul Bregoli,
who watched his team get
outscored 11-1 versus Patriot
League powerhouses Silver
Lake and Duxbury last week.
"We are remaining positive,
but we need to start playing
with more consistency in im-
portant stretches of games.
We seem to play well for long
periods of time, but then we
play poorly for short stretches
and it has cost us against the
iron of the Patriot League.

"No one is down on this
team right now. We tend to
start seasons off slowly and
once we figure it out and start
playing with a chip on our
shoulders we turn it around
quickly. We have that op-
portunity over the next two
weeks."

After dropping league

games to Hingham (Sept. 15)
and Whitman-Hanson (Sept.
17), the Raiders traveled to
Kingston to play Silver Lake
on Sept. 22. The final score
was 6-0.

"The score was not really
indicative of how we played,"
said Bregoli. "It was 0-0 after
19 minutes, but, again, we
quickly gave up three goals,
including two really bad ones.
We had chances to score but
just have not figured out how
to put the ball in net.

"We were dealing with
some key injuries, and were
forced to move some pieces
around, and sometimes that
doesn't work. Against a team
like Silver Lake, one of the
best in the league, you need
to play well for 80 minutes
and we didn't."

Bregoli singled out the
play of senior defender Ra-
chel Lucier for her perfor-
mance against the Lakers.

Against Duxbury, North
Quincy once again played a
tough Dragon team to a 0-0
tie through the first 19 min-
utes of the first-half, but three
goals in three minutes opened
the floodgates.

"It is a pattern that is
hurting us right now," said
Bregoli of his team's inability
to stem the tide for portions
of games. "All of a sudden
the Red Sea parted and they
scored three times. We had
our chances eariy but could
not convert. We are just not
finishing around the goal
right now, but hoj)efully that
changes soon."

Senior forward Cara

Murtagh finally put the Raid-
ers on the board. The assist
went to senior forward Maria
Dipietro.

Seniors Samantha Bonan-
ni and Devon McKay, sopho-
more Courtney Timmins and
freshman Lauren Campo
played well against Duxbury.

"Luckily the seniors are
keeping their heads up and
it is giving the rest of the
team confidence that things
are turning around," add-
ed Bregoli. "Some of the
younger players on the team
may have hit a wall, but they
are starting to turn the cor-
ner and it is a good sign. We
have the opportunity to get
back on track if we play to
our abilities."

North Quincy started this
critical seven-game portion
of the schedule on Tuesday
against Scituate HS and will
play today (Thursday) at
Hanover HS before return-
ing home this weekend to
play Archbishop Williams
HS (Oct. 3. 1:30 p.m.) and
Middleboro HS (Oct. 5,
3:30 p.m.).

Team Notes:

The Red Raiders will
play their second game of
the year against Quincy
High School on Oct. 7 at 5
p.m. The boys' teams will
meet in the second game
of the city double-header
beginning at 7 p.m. Both

STRIKING A FAMILIAR CORD

One common cause of lower-
back (lumbar) pain in older
adults is spinal stenosis. When
this narrowing of the spinal canal
exerts pressure on the spinal cord
and/or on the nerve roots, pain,
numbness, and/or tingling may
be felt in the buttocks, thighs,
and lower legs. The hallmark
of spinal stenosis is low back,
buttock, and leg pain that
worsens with walking or standing
and improves with sitting.
crouching, or leaning forward.
Ccoservadve treatment is initially
recommended. Another source of
low-back pain, spondylolisthesis,
which is much more common
in women than men, involves
a loratnr vertebra that slips
forward on fbe one below. The

SCOTT DEWARE

A Thought
For Th£ iVieff

Abraham Lincoln once said that people
are about as happy in this world as they
make up their minds to be. Plant that
seed in your mind and give it every op-
portunity to grow and bear fruit.
It is only human to feel discouraged at
times, but you should never think of giving up - in many cases
the low moment is the beginning of better things.

Here ai^e a few rules for getting out of a depressed state
of mind: Never make an important decision when you are
mentally at low ebb. Decide upon policies when you are in a
normal state of mind, never when you are feeling low.

Suggest to yourself that a depr^sed state of mind is a tem-
porary matter. Things will look different a few hours hence.
Make sure that your trouble is not physical. A badly digested
meal, or several hours k)ss of sleep the night before, may turn
a bright world into a place of gloom.

Because you have occasional spells of despondency, don't
despair. The sun as a sinking spell every night,butit rises again
all right the next morning.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Travel plans could be inter-
rupted by the re-emergence of
a workplace problem that was
never quite fully resolved. Deal
with it at once, and then take off
on that well-deserved trip.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Aspects favor cultural activities
for sensuous Bovines. Attend a
concert or an art show. Better
yet, create something yourself
(a poem, perhaps?), and dedi-
cate it to someone special .

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Respect any doubts you might
now be feeling about a new situ-
ation. They could be reflecting
your inner awareness that some
essential information might be
missing. Check it out.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
It's important to start the new
month with as clean a slate as
possible. Either complete all
those unfinished tasks or pass
them on to others who would
be more than happy to take
them on.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
This is a good time to cut down
on expenses and tame that urge
to splurge. Applying some fi-
nancial discipline now could
help the Big Cat ride out a pos-
sible monetary crunch later on.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Money matters are dom-
inant this week. Recheck your
accounts and make sure they're
up-to-date. Also, pay more at-
tention to personal issues before
they become major problems.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) You might be tempted to
employ the same tactics as your
adversary, but that could back-

fire. Better to use the same bal-
anced approach that has worked
for you before and could again.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) A changing work-
place environment could sfir up
confusion as well as apprehen-
sion. Best to ignore the rumors
and get the facts. You could find
that the changes bring positive
elements.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Communi-
cation is easier this week with
people ready and eager to hear
what you have to say. Also,
check for possible technical
problems before you start your
new project.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Aspects favor
change for the usually tradi-
tional Goat. Opening your mind
to jx)ssibilifies you had ignored
could lead you to make deci-
sions you once considered im-
probable.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Making f>ersonal
as well as professional adjust-
ments to changing conditions
might be easier with more infor-
mation explaining the "hows"
and "whys" of the situations in
question.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) With a growing tide of posi-
tive reactions to buoy your con-
fidence, this could be the right
time to put the finishing touches
to your new project and get it
well and truly launched.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a gift for setting an exam-
ple of quiet, calm reasoning in
the midst of chaofic condifions.

According To Tentative Deal Between City, Master Developer

Downtown Project Would Create
Construction Jobs For Local Residents

Twenty-five percent of
the construction jobs creat-
ed by the New Quincy Cen-
ter project would be targeted
for Quincy residents under a
tentative agreement reached
between the city and project
master developer Street-
Works LLC, Mayor Thomas
Koch announced Tuesday.

The $1.4 billion redevel-
opment plan is expected to
generate A 222 construction
jobs in Quincy. The final-

ized agreement would target
more than 1,050 of those
jobs for Quincy residents,
creating the largest infusion
of jobs specifically set aside
for residents in the City's
history.

"This is a wonderful op-
portunity to provide more
than a thousand good jobs
to this generation of Quincy
residents while creating a
new center that will be en-
joyed by many future gener-

ations of Quincy residents,"
Koch said.

In addition, the parties
agreed to give first prior-
ity to Quincy-based firms
placing competitive bids on
work related to new Quincy
Center.

Koch and executives
from Street- Works agreed in
principle to the targeted la-
bor set-asides and will work
out the details of the agree-
ment over the next several

months. Street- Works co-
founding partner, Kenneth
Narva, said the tentative
agreement reflects the firm's
desire to make New Quincy
Center a long-term eco-
nomic engine for Quincy
residents.

According to Morrissey.
the funds will be distributed
to help cover the unantici-
pated costs borne by the cit-
ies and towns.

"1 fully expect it will be
resolved in the next seven
to ten days." Morrissey said
after describing state legis-
lators' plans to file the re-
quired bills.

"We have to do that by
Oct. 15." said Mornssey.
adding that the "final defi-
ciency budget" allows for
"unanticipated expenses."

Morrisscv said the total

The anticipated costs of
the special election created
turmoil in the state s cities

already dealing with deficits

"This really impacts the
cities more than the towns."

Charity Golf Tourney
Raises Over $60,000

The annual Mayor's Cup
Charity Golf Tournament on
Monday raised more than
$60,{XX), with the Wollaston
Theater revitahzation effort
as this year's primary ben-
eficiary.

"We are incredibly grate-
ful to all of our sponsors and
golfers who participated. It
was a great day for a great
cause," Mayor Thomas
Koch said. "This will help
provide the seed money we
will need to kick-off what I
believe will be a true com-
munity effort to preserve the
Wollaston Theater and the
future of Wollaston Center."

Major $5,000 sponsors
of the golf tournament this
year were: Boston Scientific;
State Street; Jay Cashman,
Inc; Tishman Construction
and Eastern Insurance. Do-
nating $2J>00 sponsorships
were: Joy Flowers Counsel-
ing; Capitol Waste; Cova-
nta Energy; Quincy Credit
Union; Gilbane; National
Grid and the South Cove
Community Health Center.

At the mayor's urging,
the City's downtown rede-
velopment partners. Street-
Works LLC. purchased the

theater to save it from the
wrecking ball and allow the
City to mount an effort to
restore it into a community
theater.

A non-profit organiza-
tion, the Wollaston Theater
Foundation, is now coming
together with Hollywood
producer and Quincy native
Kris Meyer at the helm.

Proceeds from the golf
tournament will almost cer-
tainly go toward preserving
the building as final plans
are shaped, Koch said, add-
ing that those first steps will
be critical in helping deter-
mine long-term plans for
the theater and its potential
uses.

The 1200-seat theater
opened in 1926, but has
been shuttered since its last
movie played in 2003. Of-
ficials believe the building
will need substantial struc-
tural renovations to be via-
ble, with the ultimate goal to
open it as a fully functional
theater that can host mov-
ies, community events and
even concerts, akin to the
Somerville Theater or the
Coolidge Corner Theater in
Brookline.

250 Volunteers To Build
New Brill Field Park Playground

By JOE REARDON

The vision of 30 chil-
drens' idea for the perfect
playground will become
a reality on Oct. 15 when
more than 250 volunteers
will gather to build a state-
of-the-art play area at the
4.6 acre Brill Field Park in
Houghs Neck.

The grand opening of the
playground will coincide
with the Houghs Neck Com-
munity Council's annual
Harvestfest on Oct. 25 from
2-4 p.m. Games and acfivi-
ties are slated for the chil-
dren, along with live music.
Sports memorabilia will be
raffled off, including base-
balls autographed by Boston
Red Sox legends Luis Tiant
and Bill Lee. The biography
"Babe Ruth," autographed
by his daughter. Julia Ruth
Stevens, will also be part of
the raffle.

The 2J500 square foot
playground will be built in
one day by volunteers from
Home Depot, the national

non-profit organization Ka-
Boom and the HNCC. It
is being funded through a
$61,000 grant from Home
Depot and KaBoom, along
with a $7,500 contribution
from the HNCC.

KaBoom works with
communities to achieve bet-
ter public policy, funding
and public awareness for
increased play opportunities
nationwide. The organiza-
fion, now in its 13 years, be-
lieves in the importance of
places to play for children
within walking distance of
their homes. Home Depot
became the official sustain-
ability partner of KaBoom
this year. The two organi-
zations emphasize environ-
mentally friendly projects as
well as educating children
and communifies about the
importance of the issue. All
materials used for the proj-
ect will be recycled and any
unused materials left over
after the completion of the
playground will be donated

Reunion

to other organizations.

The playground project
began to take shape back
on July 1 when KaB(X)m
approached HNCC Presi-
dent Brian Larouche with a
grant for the Quincy area.
Larouche met with Mayor
Thomas Koch and Parks
and Recreation board mem-
ber Jack Nigro who were re-
ceptive to the idea of a new
playground at Brill Field.
"They were the first two I
approached and they gave
us the thumbs up," said La-
rouche.

Thirty kids from the Brill
Field Park neighborhood,
ranging in age from 4 to
10, came up with an array
of ideas as to what the fin-
ished product should look
like. "They presented their
concepts and designs to
the adults," said Larouche,
who wouldn't be surprised
if more than 250 volunteers
would show up. "They had
some really neat ideas. They
definitely wanted swings,
monkey bars and really cool
slides. We picked the equip-
ment based on what the kids
wanted."

A hopscotch court is in-
cluded in the plans as well
as a rock climbing wall. The
Hough Neck Garden Club
will be providing the land-

scaping and greenery near
the playground.

Brill Field Park is named
after Quincy residents Rob-
ert and John Brill. Robert
was drafted out of Quincy
High School in 1972 as an
18 year old by the Milwau-
kee Brewers and was part of
the deal that brought hall of
fame shortstop Robin Yount
to the Brewers in 1973.
Robert went on to play for
the St. Louis Cardinals. He
died of cancer in 1983 at the
age of 29. John Brill died
in a motorcycle accident in
1982.

"It's going to make Brill
Field one of the elite parks
in the city," said Parks and
Recreation member Joe
Brill, the brother of Robert
and John.

Thirty volunteers will
be doing prep work for the
playground on Oct. 13,
which includes digging
holes and receiving deliv-
ered materials for the play-
ground. The playground
will be built two days later
and additional side projects
in the area, including the
construction of benches and
fences, is scheduled for Oct.
17, Larouche said a butter-
fly garden will eventually be
constructed in the park with
HNCC fundraising money.

IF YOU HAD A NICKEL FOR EVERY TIME

Nickel is more ubiquitous
than you might ever imagine. It is
found in coins, pots and pans, and
jewelr>'. This is not realiv a matter
of concern except for the fact that
nickel can dissolve in perspiration.
When nickel ions penetrate the
skin, they can produce an allergic
reaction in susceptible individuals.
Nickel allergy, often provoked by
body and ear piercing, is a problem
for 1 1 % of women and 2% of men
largely because women are more
likely to have their ears pierced.
Those susceptible to allergic
contact dermatitis are urged to
have any sort of piercing the\'
undergo conducted with surgical
grade, stainless steel needles.
Beyond that, wearing platinum
or 1 8- or 24-K-gold jewelry can
guard against allergic reactions.

But Eye Water Pirates, Deadbeats

Council Approves Funds
For Water, Sewer Upgrades

City Councillors Monday
approved funding for sewer
and water system improve-
ments aimed at slashing the
city's MWRA charges in the
upcoming years.

At the same meeting, the
councilors sought an update
on the city's efforts to collect
payments from the roughly
50 companies and individu-
als who received unmetered
water in past years.

The program, outlined by
Michael Coffey, Business
Director for the Department,
will tackle water leaks and
sewer infiltration and inflow
(I&I).

Coffey told councilors
the MWRA water bill is $9
million this year, up one mil-
lion dollars from last year
while the MWRA sewer bill
is now $17 million.

"Our bill is twice as much
as it should be," Coffey said,
adding the city's needs a
comprehensive plan attack-
ing inflow and infiltration
(I&I) to reduce the costs.

Coffey then described the
infiltration of seawater, rain-
water and groundwater that
leaks into the sewer pipes
and is treated as sewage by
the MWRA and charged to
the city.

Other water, called in-
flow, flows into the sewer
pipes via sump pumps,
drains and storm drains.
Coffey said the city's centu-
ry old system of clay pipes

Both inflow and infiltra-
tion contribute to the $17
million dollar bill.

To rectify the problem,
Coffey outlined phase one
of an improvement plan that
he said will have a one-time

cost of $ 1 .2 million but save
the city some $1 million a
year in I&I charges by the
MWRA,

Under the plan approved
by the council, the MWRA
will cover $78K .4()<) through
an l&I remediation grant
while the balance of the
funds will be raised from
the sewer rehabilitation ac-
count.

'"We do not have to pa\
this back," Coffey said of the
MWRA grant, adding that
the million-dollar invest-
ment will have "no impact
on the ratepayer or taxpay-
er" and have an "18-month
payback,"

Under Coffey's plan, the
engineering design will be-
gin this week, and the proj-
ect will be completed July
1.

As for the water leak
detection plan. Coffey said
that DPW workers

have already been engaged
in leak detection and that
the two DPW employees
assigned to the task have
located $890,000 in previ-
ously undetected leaks.

Coffey said he wants to
speed up the detection pro-
gram and outlined a $72,000
program that will be funded
in part by a $49,000 state
grant and $23 .000 of in-kind
labor.

This program will not
cost the taxpayers or rate-
payers any additional mon-
ey, according to Coffey who

Council To Meet On 4- Year Mayoral Terms Oct. 14

Should Quincy 's mayor
serve a two year or four year
term?

That is the question the
Ordinance Committee will
discuss when members meet
next Wednesday, Oct. 14, at
6:30 p.m. in City Council
chambers.

The committee will con-
sider a proposed Home Rule
petition filed by Ward 4 City
Councillor Jay Davis who
supports a four-year term

for mayors and has initiated
the change.

There are two ways
in which the term can be
changed. The first is a Home
Rule Petition, the second, a
citizens' initiative and voter
referendum.

Under the first option, the
Ordinance Committee must
pass the proposal which
must then be approved by
a 2/3rds vote of the City
CA)uncil.

If the state legislature ap-
proves the petition, the four-
year term would be enacted.

Supporters of the four-
year term ma> take a dif-
ferent route and initiate the
proposal through a citizens"
initiative petition which
would require signatures by
five percent of the voters,
approximate!) 2.751

The petition would then
require a majont\ vote b\
residents.

The earliest this binding
referendum would be put on
a ballot uould be in 2r>l 1
because the city's charter
stipulates "the next regular
city election ""

Inder either scenario,
the earliest four-\ear term
would begin in Januar>.
2013.

THE HISTORY CHANNE

• On Oct. 13, 1792, the

cornerstone is laid for a
presidential residence in
the newly designated capi-
tal city of Washington. The
executive mansion soon be-
came known as the "White
House" because its white-
gray Virginia freestone con-
trasted strikingly with the
red brick of nearby build-
ings.

• On Oct. 12, 1915,

British nurse Edith Cavell
is executed by a German
firing squad for helping Al-
lied soldiers escape from
German-occupied Belgium
during World War I. When
Cavell and others were ar-
rested, she made a full con-
fession and was sentenced
to death.

• On Oct. 18, 1922,

"Robin Hood," starring
Douglas Fairbanks, opens
in Hollywood. As a pub-
licity stunt, Fairbanks had
posed atop a New York
hotel in costume, with bow
and arrow. He and several
others shot arrows from the
building, and accidentally
injured a man when an ar-
row flew through an open
window.

•On Oct. 14, 1947, US

Air Force Captain Chuck
Yeager becomes the first
person to fly faster than the
speed of sound. His X-1 air-
craft was lifted to an altitude

of 25,000 feet by a B-29
and then released through
the bomb bay, rocketing to
40,000 feet and exceeding
662 mph.

• On Oct. 15, 1964,

while trying to set a new
1 mile land-speed record,
Craig Breedlove inadver-
tently set another kind of
record after he lost control
of the Spirit of America jet-
jxjwered car on the Bonn-
eville Salt Flats in Utah.
The vehicle began to skid,
taking nearly 6 miles to
decelerate from more than
400 mph — the longest skid
marks on record.

• On Oct. 16, 1973,

Henry Kissinger and North
Vietnamese diplomat Le
Due Tho are awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize for nego-
tiating the Paris Peace Ac-
cords. Kissinger accepted,
but Tho declined the award
until such time as "peace is
truly established."

•On Oct. 17, 1994, taxi-
cab driver Jeremy Levine
returned to London, from a
round-trip journey to Cape
Town, South Africa. Pas-'
sengers Mark Aylett and
Carlos Aresse paid 40,000
pounds, or approximately
$65,000, for the 21,691-
mile trip, setting a world re-
cord for the longest known
taxicab ride.

Oct. 17 Hay ride Cancelled

The Friends of WoUas-
ton Beach announces a fall
hayride scheduled Saturday,
Oct. 17 has been cancelled.

The hayride was to take
place at Squantum Point
Park.

Touching tributes.
Heart-felt reflections.

Lxjving remembrances.

All for Henry,

All deserved.

It was a very special day for a very special man.

On Sunday, Sept. 27, the City of Quincy dedicated a
plaque in memory of Quincy Sun founder and longtime
Publisher Henry Bosworth in the Council Chamber of
City Hall, also known as the Mayor James R. Mclntyre
Government Center.

The ceremony was attended by family, current and
former Quincy Sun staff, friends, business colleagues
and past and present city officials, including six Quincy
mayors.

The handsome bronze plaque - which honors Henry's
life, accomplishments, service and humanitarianism -
will be placed on a wall somewhere in City Hall, perhaps
inside the foyer of "new" City Hall. The exact location
has not been determined.

Among those speaking at the ceremony was Ward
2 Councillor Dan Raymondi, who, along with Ward
1 Councillor Leo Kelly, sponsored a resolution for the
plaque shortly after Henry's passing in February.

"As you enter old City Hall, there is a place set aside to
honor certain members of the local media who have dis-
tinguished themselves in their professional and personal
lives," Raymondi said in proposing the special plaque
before councillors voted unanimously for the honor.

"His love of Quincy and Quincy Point was unparal-
leled and Henry was fond of saying, 'We are proud to
carry the name Quincy on our banner. That's what we're
all about, Quincy, the best city in the world."

The honor of the special plaques has been bestowed
only twice before when the city recognized two other ex-
ceptional members of the media: Fred Hunt of The Pa-
triot Ledger, and Herb Fontaine of radio station WJDA.

It is believed Henry helped write the inscriptions for
the other media plaques, as well as the one that honors
former City Clerk John Gillis.

But on the day the city dedicated Henry's plaque, it
was time for others to express their fondness for what he
meant to them: as a boss, grandfather, uncle, business as-
sociate, reporter, friend and a Quincy favorite son.

There were a few laughs, but more tears and some very
special sentiments shared by friends and family, includ-
ing a very touching expression of love from his grand-
daughter, Kellie Bosworth Newman, a junior at Quincy
High School - Henry's alma mater.

Capping off the ceremony was the unveiling itself.
Doing the honors were Henry's wife, Mrs. Dorothy Bo-
sworth, his brother, Richard Bosworth - another former
Quincy Pointer - and his wife (Henry's sister-in-law)
Irene Bosworth.

It was the type of tribute that Henry would have felt
truly honored - and blessed. He understood the magni-
tude of City Hall plaques. He's only one of a handful in
the city's "Hall of Honor."

But in true Henry style, he would have redirected the
spotlight to Quincy and its people and all the paper's sup-
porters down through the years.

When he was honored, he believed the Sun was hon-
ored.

But the plaque honor is all Henry's.

It's his name that became synonymous with the paper.
So much so that if the paper's banner were changed from
The Quincy Sun to The Henry Bosworth, readers would
still identify the paper as The Sun. And rightfully so.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to City
Clerk Joseph Shea for emceeing the event; to Park Di-
rector Kristen Powers for creating the program for the
ceremony; to Frank Brillo of Main Street for catering
the collation; and to John Ricciuti, co-owner of Hancock
Monument Co., who designed the 30-inch by 18-inch,
83-pound bronze plaque.

And I would also like to thank all of the speakers who
participated in the ceremony. You'll find those remem-
brances - which truly touch on so many facets of who
Henry was - on Pages 1 8 and 19 along with other photos
from the ceremony on Page 17.

MEMORIAL PLAQUE dedicated to Henry W. Bosworth Jr.
The inscription reads: In Memory Of Henry W. Bosworth, Jr.;
September 13, 1924 ■ February 7, 2009. Founder, The Quincy
Sun Newspaper, Distinguished Publisher and Beloved Com-
munity Leader; Devoted to His Family and His Profession; Re-
membered and Revered for His Integrity, Fairness and Friend-
ship to All. Dedicated September, 2009.

My tribute follows below:

Today is indeed a proud - but bittersweet - day.

The Bosworth family is grateful to the City of Quincy
and in particular Mayor Tom Koch, Ward 2 Councillor
Dan Raymondi and the entire City Council for bestowing
this honor in Henry's memory.

It is fitting that this special day take place today because
41 years ago this week, the very first issue of The Quincy
Sun made its publishing debut on Sept. 26, 1968.

Back then, Jim Mclntyre was the mayor, a new Ford
automobile cost $3,200 and gas was 34 cents a gallon.

The Page 1 lead story headline of that first issue:

"Major Delay Averted In Quincy MBTA Extension."

The Red Line wasn't quite here . . . but it was com-
ing.

But really, the headline could have easily have been:

"Henry Bosworth 's Dream A Reality"

With the overline:

"Quincy Pointer And Navy Veteran Establishes Publi-
cation In The City He Loves"

You see, it was Henry's dream to start his own weekly
newspaper in the city he loved: Quincy.

Quincy, to Henry, was the best city in the world. He
adored its history, its traditions, and its politics.

But it was Quincy people that mattered most to Hen-
ry-

And when the city's daily newspaper dropped the word

'Quincy' from its banner, Henry's opportunity knocked
loudly and clearly.

He jumped at the chance to start his own paper.

Soon, The Quincy Sun was bom, his Sunbeams col-
umn began and the city became a two-newspaper town.

Some predicted it would fold within six months . . .
but with Henry at the helm, the paper flourished.

It was a decision he never regretted.

Since that first issue, more than 2,100 issues have fol-
lowed.

Henry was grateful for the paper's loyal advertisers,
faithful readers, dedicated staff and small army of news-
carriers who have helped sustain the paper week after
week - and year after year - for more than four decades.

And so, The Quincy Sun became Henry's labor of
love.

Today, we know The Quincy Sun is Henry's legacy.

And while his heart was at the Sun's office, his soul
was here at City Hall.

This is where Henry met with city leaders, finding a
good scoop for Page 1 or a hot political topic for his next
Sunbeams column.

This is where he visited week after week - usually
on Wednesday - and took the time out of a very hectic
schedule just to stop by and shoot the breeze.

To Henry, City Hall was like the TV show Cheers: this
is where everybody knew his name.

So it is indeed fitting that he is memorialized in this
building.

His family knows Henry will live in our hearts . . .
and we are proud that this plaque will be a permanent
reminder of his devotion to the city he loved.

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS IS A 1915 postcard view of the Greenleaf Block
on the corner of Hancock and Granite Streets in Quincy
Square. Built in 1876, this was the first brick business
building erected in Quincy. It features two polished
Quincy Granite columns at the main entrance. The
Greenleaf Hotel, originally known as the Robertson
Hotel, was located on the top three floors until a fire de-
stroyed the roof and steeple leaving only the three story

building there today. On the left is Durgin and Merrill
block built in 1886; it is still standing but it's covered
with a metal facade. On the right down Granite Street is
the old railroad bridge w here the trains passed overhead
until the Red Line was built below the street. To contact

Says School Committee Members Acted Dishonorably

On Sept. 23, I stood be-
fore the Quincy School
Committee in open forum to
speak about a letter that had
been mailed to my home
from three school com-
mittee members; Jo-Ann
Bragg, Nick Puleo and Ron
Mariano, using their official
titles as a way of misleading
city residents that the school
committee itself, as a body.

endorsed a certain candidate
for mayor.

As I stood at the podium,
my words were stifled by
Ron Mariano, claiming that
their letter of endorsement
was not a school committee
issue, and I could only speak
about school issues.

The letter did indeed ad-
dress school issues; 1 should
have been allowed to speak.

Their letter tears at the
very fabric of the school
committee's integrity as a
governing body.

The letter was mislead-
ing because it appeared as
though it represented the
view s of the school commit-
tee as a body.

Each one has a right to
support a candidate; that's
not what the issue is here.

The fact that three school
committee members strate-
gically used their political
positions to purposefullv
misinform the public in at-
tempt to sway voters into
supporting their candidate
for mayor.

This act was immoral
and dishonorable, to say the
least.

Responds To Concerns Over Campaign Signs In Squantum

{The following letter was
submitted to The Quincy
Sun /or publication.)

To our friends and neigh-
bors of Squantum, especial-
ly the Seaside Gardeners.

I want to clear up any
concern about my political
signs being erected on the

northern side of the Squan-
tum causeway (East Squan-
tum Street). The signs are on
private property with per-
mission of the owner. 1 took
special care to make sure the
locations were selected so
as to not interfere with the
existing flower beds on the

same property.

I am not a big fan of po-
litical signs but I recognize
that they help alert the com-
munity that an election is
approaching soon. The good
news is that they will only
be there until Nov. 3.

I can assure you that all

of my signs will be removed
when the polls close on that
day and 1 encourage all other
candidates to do the same.

School Construction An Opportunity For Vocational Students

One of the challenges
of the School Committee is
to find affordable solutions
that benefit both the students
and the community.

With the building of
Quincy High School and
the likely construction of a
new Central Middle School,
there are opportunities to
benefit our vocational stu-
dents in the trades and the
community. It would be in-
valuable for the vocational
students to participate in the
actual construction of these
school related projects.

The students would work
in conjunction with the
unions , with union oversi ght .
The trade students could be
in a "pre-apprenticeship"
program for a small portion
of the construction projects.

The students would bene-

fit from having actual hands, students, who will be look- city,
on experience at a real job ing to join apprenticeship
site. The unions would ben-
efit both from demonstrat-
ing their goodwill to the
community and by helping

programs upon graduation.

An arrangement such as
this would benefit the stu-
dents, the unions and the

their original choreography to the music from both the 80's Oscar-winning film "Fame" and
the current release of the 2009 film. The 40 children from Quincy and surrounding communi-

The Thomas Crane Pub-
lic Library, 40 Washington
St., Quincy, will host a free
screening of the 2008 movie
"Twilight" Thursday, Oct.
15 at 7 p.m.

"Twilight," the widely
popular movie based on the
best-selling novel by Steph-
anie Meyer, is rated PG for
some violence and a scene
of sensuality.

The movie is 120 min-
utes. After moving to the
rainy little town of Forks,
Washington, Bella Swan
meets the mysterious and

dazzlingly beautiful Edward
Cullen, a boy unlike any
other. But their passionate
and unorthodox romance
is threatened when a clan
of new vampires comes to
town.

On Thursday. Oct. 22 at
7 p.m., the library will also
host a multimedia explora-
tion of the "Twilight" book
and movie phenomenon.

The presentation by Dr.
Patricia Bianco will include
character analysis, literary
and dramatic criticism, and
some humor, plus the inside

scoop on the "Hollywood-
ing" on the book, how the
movie's special effects were
achieved and scuttlebutt
about the actors and the
movie production.

A Quincy resident since
retiring in 2005, Dr. Bianco
is a theatre professor emeri-
tus at the University of Pitts-
burgh.

Both free programs are
sponsored by the Friends
of the Thomas Crane Public
Library. For more informa-
tion, call 617-376-1301.

Hearing On 4- Year Mayoral Terms Oct, 14

As the City of Quincy
Ward 4 City Councillor and
Council President I am writ-
ing to give some of the rea-
sons 1 support a four-year
term for the office of Mayor
of the City of Quincy. While
the voters will ultimately
decide if there is to be any
change, and any change
would not affect the term of
the victor in the upcoming
election, there is a hearing
concerning the issue on Oct.
14. 1 encourage interested
residents to attend and share
their thoughts

Successful government
requires effective manage-
ment. The city of Quincy
has a budget of 230 million
dollars. It is the job of the
mayor to manage that bud-
get. Effective management
requires long term planning
and policy implementation
It requires an awareness and
understanding of increas-
ingly complicated state and
federal statutes and regula-
tions. It requires hinng and
overseeing the most quali-
fied persons as department
heads. Under the current
system, by the time a new
mayor takes office, organiz-
es and assembles a leader-
ship team and deals with the
intricacies of a first budget.
It is time to start planning
lor a reelection campaign
if he/she wants to imple-

ment and see through his/
her long-range goals, proj-
ects and plans. In a city of
90,000 residents, it takes
months of work and consid-
erable fundraising to run an
effective mayoral campaign,
tasks that are time consum-
ing and distracfing for even
the most conscientious of
mayors, time that could be
better spent planning, imple-
menting and addressing the
numerous challenges facing
our city.

Another of my reasons
for proposing the change is
that it puts the city in a bet-
ter position for attracting the
most qualified individuals
for appointed jobs. To give
one example, in 2006 and
2007 the city was without a
traffic engineer. One of the
obstacles the Phelan admin-
istration faced in hiring a
qualified professional was
that the applicants could
only be offered two years of
employment while mayors

in other municipalities were
offering four.

1 feel that the City of
Quincy will benefit from
the consistency, long range
planning and stability that
will result from the change.
In the last 10 years both
Braintree and Weymouth
have changed to a city-form
of government. After con-
siderable research, the char-
ter commissions of both rec-
ommended mayoral terms
of 4 years

There are credible ar-
guments that can be made
both for and against the
change. The City Council's
Ordinance Committee will
have a hearing on the mat-
ter on Wednesday. Oct. 14
at 7 p.m. in the City Council
Chambers at City Hall. It
will ultimately be up to the
voters to decide this issue. I
encourage you to be part of
the process.

'■'«*? -^^ A

Julia Vannoni of Winthrop is attending Wellesley College this fall.
Highlights of her Fontbonne career include being the Secretary of the

"Fontbonne provided me with the confidence to achieve greatness.
They set the standards hard and always challenged me to succeed. They
never let me fall back and always pushed me to become involved and
to help others. I have learned how to be a whole person by attending
Fontbonne through their challenging academic curriculum and inviting

I received an attack ad
directed against Jay Davis
from his opponent in the
Ward 4 Council race. 1 have
only lived in Quincy for 12
years, but since that is about
6 times longer than Brian
Palmucci has. I feel I know
a little more than he about
the job Jay has done not just
as a councilor but as a long
time contnbuting member
of this community.

Whether it has been on
the City Council floor or
a youth Softball field, at

a neighborhood meeting.
schcKjl fundraiser or com-
munity center, inside a con-
stituents home. City Hall,
or a senior center. Jay has
worked tirelessly for the
people in this ward and city
He has been a strong voice
for Seniors, children, com-
merce, labor, homeowners,
public education and com-
munity conservation.

He has initiated and or
participated in multiple pro-
grams and activities aimed
at preventing crimes before

there are victims and has
been a leader in bringing
new businesses into town
which bring with them much
needed jobs and tax rev-
enues .Simply slated, there
IS no one who has worked
harder or cared more about
the people he represents
than Jay Davis.

Rather than support a
candidate who talks the talk.
I'm sticking with the gu)
who has walked the walk

Adams National Historic Neighborhood
Association Candidates Night Oct. 13

The Adams National
Historic Neighborhood As-
sociation (ANHNA) will
be sponsoring their second
Candidates night on Tues-
day. Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. at
the Neighborhood Club on
Glendale Road.

The theme of this years
event will be the preserva-
tion of Quincy's neighbor-
hoods.

Candidates for Ward
Council and Council at
Large have been invited to

participate.

Both mayoral candidates
Thomas Koch and William
Phelan will also be asked a
series of questions.

Quincy Attorney Jack
Milgram will serve as the
moderator.

ANHNA has been in-
volved in preserving the
neighborhoods in and
around Adams Street.

Opposition to the Even-
tide development and pro-
posals that would have ad-

verse effects to the character
of the neighborhood. En-
forcement the zoning laws,
the River- ways act and con-
servation rulings have been
the issues that ANHNA has
worked diligently since the
associations inception.

At the conclusion of
the event ANHNA will an-
nounce the associations
dedication the Bill Alyward,
a longtime activist .publisher
of the Blacks Creek News
and moderator of the 2007
ANHNA candidates night.

Environmental Issues Focus
At Oct. 14 Candidates' Forum

The Quincy Environ-
mental Network (QEN), an
affiliation of various envi-
ronmental groups operat-
ing in Quincy, is seeking
to learn the views of candi-
dates on a variety of critical
environmental questions.

A questionnaire com-
piled by QEN members was
recently sent to both incum-
bents and challengers in
races for Mayor, Councilor-
at-Large and Ward Coun-
cilor. The questions cover a
range of issues such as green
buildings, wind energy, and
stimulus money.

Candidates are asked to
respond to the questions via
email.

The QEN intends to use
electronic and print media

to distribute their unedited
responses.

"The purpose of sending
the questions is two-fold: to
inform voters of how can-
didates stand on the issues
and to keep the environment
in the spotlight during this
election season," said Mau-
reen Mazrimas, a member
of the Executive Commit-
tee, and moderator of the
upcoming events.

The written question-
naire is the first in a two-
part effort by the QEN that
will conclude with two can-
didates' nights.

The first was scheduled
for Tuesday, Oct. 6 and fea-
tured candidates for ward
council.

The second is set for
Wednesday. Oct. 14 for

councillor-at-large and

mayor at the Adams Cen-
ter m the new Quincy High
School from 7 to 9:30 p.m.

This venue was chosen
as an opportimity to show-
case a "green building."
This school is also LEED
(Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) cer-
tified.

The format for the can-
didate's night will be "ques-
fion and answer" with the
QEN posing questions to
the candidates selected from
a representative sampling of
those offered by members
of the group or the public at
large.

For more information, or
to propose a question for the
Oct. 14 Candidates' Night,

Mary's Massage & Spa: Providing Holistic Health Care

Quincy resident Mary Chau provides
professional health and wellness servic-
es for the North Quincy community at
Mary's Massage & Spa at 423 Hancock
Street. In addition to being a licensed a
Massage Therapist and Acupuncturist,
Chau is also a Reiki Master, Level III and
licensed as a Lymph Drainage Therapist
and Skin Care Specialist.

While many know about the benefits
of Massage Therapy, of less wide practice
is the use of acupuncture and herbal med-
icine; though they represent 2500 years of
quality holistic health care. Acupuncture
is still considered relatively "new" here in
the United States but according to World
Health Organization, and a vast amount
of research in China, many conditions are
suitable for acupuncture treatment. Since
ancient times traditional Chinese medi-
cine has used internal and external herbal
combinations to improve health and vital-

ity and in believe that in some instances
they will actually treat and cure specif-
ic diseasesA practice that is known to
a much lesser degree is Lymph Drain-
age Therapy, also available at this lo-
cation. According to Chau the proper
functioning of the lymphatic system is
critical to the body's ability to drain
stagnant fluid.

All of these above mentioned ho-
listic health practices are available at
Mary's Massage Therapy. Chau's pro-
fessional philosophy dictates that one
should "treat the cause not the symp-
tom" and sets about to discover the
cause before treating her clients in or-
der to ensure more successful results.
The adjacent salon offers a full menu
of hair and skm care procedures. Hair
styling, which may include cut and
color, as well as manicure, pedicure
and skin care are all provided by licensed

it you don't want to get
caught out in the cold.

"Autumn is a great time
for automotive mainte-
nance and repair," says
Jim MacPherson, car care
expert and automotive ra-
dio host for WTIC-AM in
Connecticut, "it gives us
time to repair the wear and
tear and allows us to pre-
pare for those colder days
ahead. Following a simple
maintenance checklist will
save drivers time and mon-
ey by extending the life of
their vehicle and ensuring
safer operation."

To keep your car in
top shape and running
smoothly as we transition
into cooler months, here
arc four big tips to keep in
mind:
Tires: Good pressure,
little wear and rotation

Tires lose pressure ev-
ery month, and more when
the temperatures drop. To
maintain proper pressure,
check your tires monthly

and make sure they're filled
up to their recommended
psi rating (which can be
found on the driver's side
door paneling, in the own-
er's manual or sometimes
on the tires themselves).

Drivers should also
check the tread on the tires
regularly for wear; replace
excessively worn tires. If it
has been over 5,000 miles
since your tires have last
been rotated, it is important
to do so because there's a
risk of having one tire wear
more significantly than the
others.

Finally, if you live in
a region where the tem-
perature consistently rests
around freezing during
the winter months, it's a
good time to start looking
around for winter tires.
Oil: Switch to synthetic

Lower temperatures can
add stress on your engine.
To prevent engine wear,
change your oil and oil
filter as specified in your

manual. A switch to syn-
thetic oil, if you're not
using it already, will help
your car operate more ef-
ficiently.

Synthetic motor oils,
such as Mobil 1 , are spe-
cifically designed to pro-
tect your engine in wide
temperature ranges. For
example, Mobil I's syn-
thetic 5W-30 flows rap-
idly to critical engine parts
during cold start-ups, pro-
vides outstanding wear
protection and keeps en-
gines clean and running
smoothly.

Cooling system:
Flush and refill

The cooling system (ra-
diator) should be checked
for leaks and low levels.
Additionally, it should be
flushed and refilled as rec-
ommended in the owner's
manual. When checking,
remember to never re-
move the radiator cap until
the engine has thoroughly
cooled.

While coolant may
mostly be associated with
warmer weather, a vehi-
cle's coolant (or antifreeze)
is equally important in the
colder months to make
sure the vehicle can with-
stand the temperatures. A
50/50 mix of anti-freeze
and distilled water is the
usual recommendation.

Full engine tune-up:
Systems and fluid levels

If you haven't had your
yearly-recommended ba-
sic tune-up, now 's the time
to have that done. Cooler
weather will only make
existing problems worse. A
tune-up will correct engine
problems such as stalling
and diminished power,
and will also ensure that
fluid levels (for brakes,
transmission, windshield
washer, etc.) are topped off
or replaced if needed.

Following a simple
maintenance checklist can
help extend the life of your
car.

Techs

(NU) - How can drivers
ensure quality work on their
vehicles? Motorists can find
professional auto technicians
by looking for national stan-
dards and qualifications.

The National Institute for
Automotive Service Excel-
lence, better known as ASE,
conducts the only industry-
wide, national testing and
certification program for au-
tomotive technicians. Unlike
vocational licensing, which if
often little more than a work
permit automatically issued
by a government entity for a
fee, technician certification of-
fers real meaning and value to
technician, employer and con-
sumer alike.

ASE certification signifies
competent auto technicians,
taking the guesswork out of
the search for a reputable re-
pair shop.

ASE-certified technicians
wear shoulder insignia: their
employers often post their
technicians' credentials in the
cos turner waiting area and dis-
play the blue and white ASE
sign ("The Blue Seal") on the
premises. Certified technicians
can be found at all types of re-
pair facilities, from dealerships
and independent garages to
franchises and service stations.
Shops with a high percentage
of ASE-certified technicians
are eligible to join ASE's elite
Blue Seal of Excellence Rec-
ognition Program. Visit www.
ase.com for car care tips.

Marty Aikens * Ward One Councilor i^A Voice for OUR Priorities

Dear Ward One Neighbor,

Ward One in Quincy is a very special place. I have had the privilege
of growing up here, buying my first house here and getting involved
in our wonderful community with so many of our neighbors.

I am running to be your next Ward One Councilor because I think we
need a fresh voice and someone with new ideas who understands
the needs of our residents. I share your concern that the City of
Quincy should be doing a much better job for its citizens and
instead of raising our taxes, our elected representatives should
instead be tightening the belt of city government.

I will be an effective voice for your priorities and I respectfully ask for
your vote on November 3.

NEWLY INSTALLED bicycle racks outside the Adams Shore Public Library.

City Installs 34 Bike Racks On Public Grounds

In order to take advantage
of the Massachusetts Area
Planning Council (MAPC)
Bike Rack reimbursement
program for 2009, the Quin-
cy Department of Planning
and Community Develop-
ment has purchased 34 bike
racks.

All 34 bicycle racks have
been installed on public
properties throughout the
city including the Commu-
nity Centers, the Ryan Boat-
house, the Adams Shore

Branch of the Thomas Crane
Public Library, and Pagnano
Towers (Quincy Housing
Authority).

The locations were
identified in Bicycle Park-
ing Study that was conduct-
ed during 2008.

This is the first time that
the city has taken advantage
of the MAPC Bike Rack Re-
imbursement offer. In 2010,
the city intends to expand
the program by working
closely with Quincy 2000

Collaborative and other or-
ganizations to increase the
number and locations of the
bike racks.

"With more and more
people choosing to ride a
bicycle than drive a car, we
are very pleased to be able
to increase the City's bike
rack inventory," said Dennis
E. Harrington, Planning Di-
rector. "Bicycling can help
enhance the vitality, sustain-
ability, and the livability of
our City."

State Seen Covering $5.5M For Special Senate Election

Cont 'd From Page I

Shea noted that cities
were already bracing for the
costs of their regular mu-
nicipal elections and those
elections cannot be com-
bined with the special senate
election.

After the meeting. Shea

wrote directly to Governor
Deval Patrick outlining the
need for the state to cover
the costs of the elections.

At that meeting, coun-
cilors suggested refusing
to call the special elections
until the state devised a plan
to pay the costs. Councillors

cited the requirements of
Proposition 2 '/^ which com-
pels the state to pay for all
state mandates.

"Cities have already set
their budgets and have no
way of raising revenue to
pay for this election," Shea
said in an Oct. 1 letter to

Gov. Deval Patrick, adding,
"The choice of reducing
other services, or draming
what little reserves there
may exist, makes the task of
fundmg these elections an
impossible one."

"Cities and towns need
to stand up and send a mes-

ways been to individual-
ize our designs to the areas
where they're based. Setting
jobs aside for Quincy resi-
dents is in perfect harmony
with this philosophy," Nar-
va said.

The Street-Works project
would widen Quincy Cen-
ter's sidewalks, alter traffic
flow, daylight a portion t>f
lown Brook, create open
civic areas and green space,
and add about 6X4.000
square feet of office space.
590,000 square feet of re-
tail space, 1,100 residen-
tial units, a hotel and 3.734
parking spaces.

According to an eco-
nomic analysis by the New
York-based firm AKRF, the
project will boost the city's
property tax revenues by
$10 million per year and will
generate 4222 construction
jobs in Quincy and 7.240
total direct and indirect con-
struction jobs in the state.

The project uili create
4JS60 permanent jobs, the
study found.

Koch and the Street-
Works team have stated that
the project would be vir-
tually impossible to build
without union labor and
have met with union leaders
to discuss the design and its

general timeline.

"We're pleased that
Mayor Koch and the Street-
Works folks met us at the
beginning of the community
outreach effort, and we're

looking forward to continu-
ing the conversation as the
project moves forward. " said

At the time, the esti-

S,5 5 million total had been
discussed with the Secretarv

NQHS Students Build Shed
At Quarry Hills Ball Field

North Quincy High
School students participat-
ing in the Career and Tech-
nical Education Carpentry
program recently received
many accolades for their
handiwork in the build-
ing of a 10-foot by 12-foot
wood shed at the Quarry
Hills Ball Field.

In a note from the Quin-
cy Youth Baseball League
president to the N.Q.H.S.
wood shop, a quote read,
"We are very pleased with
the shed. It came out beau-
tiful. 1 know carpentry guys
probably don't like the word

beautiful but it is."

The students were com-
missioned last spring to
construct the 10x12 wood
frame shed, complete with

Hancock Street for the use
of a box truck to transport
the shed components to the
job site.

To be honest, I'd rather
not be standing here right
now, talking about Henry
Bosworth. I'd much prefer
to be talking with him at his
home, in his living room,
like I normally would have
been doing on any other
Sunday. However, it's not
any other Sunday, and I'm
not there because he's not.

To many people, he was
different things. To me, he
was always simply Papa. I
grew up with a grandfather
and a pal all in one. Every
night from an early age, we
would talk on the phone, at
our usual time around 7:30.
Our conversations ranged
from world news, politics,
and school. My papa loved
hearing about the daily hap-
penings that took place in the
halls he once walked when
he was my age. "How did
the Presidents hold up this
year against the Raiders?"

papers, where Papa would

occasions that we've come

lot of work by an awful lot together as a community to

of individuals and the Bos-
worth family as well.

We gathered here this
afternoon to take a moment
from our busy lives but it's
important to take a moment
today to celebrate the life,
the humanity, and the mag-

honor an individual the way
we are honoring Henry Bo-
sworth.

That's remarkable and
it's a testament to his life
and his work.

We first did it in 1967 for
a reporter from The Patriot

ed themselves to the qual-
ity of life within the City of
Quincy.

My career began about
the same time Henry started
his newspaper - about 40
years ago.

When I thought about the
point I wanted to get across
today, I thought about the
enjoyment that Henry would
have had to be here today. .
. He would have been talk
ing about the days he would
come here early and leave
late. We knew Henry was
in charge and there was go-
ing to be a story but perhaps
more important to him, there
was going to be a column.

Henry would not only
talk about the individual, but
especially in this climate, he
would talk about the pre-
liminary election and the
final election. People want

And I still have the news-
paper clipping of a story he
wrote when I was in junior
high about how many "A's"
I had received: he even
counted them!

When I was working on
my bachelor's degree in
communication at B.C., it
was Uncle Henry who al-
lowed me to create an in-
ternship at the Quincy Sun

LESLIE DOUGLAS

Henry's Niece

that gave me lots of support
and advice... and the oppor-
tunity to audition as news
anchor on his new cable TV
channel: and he was right. . . .
it was great on 8!

Uncle Henry was a man
of commitment:

Committed to his fam-
ily... he was our comer-
stone...

The Cheerleader of our
achievements

The Rock through our
life tragedies

And the Promoter of all
our abilities

Committed to his faith

Committed to his com-
munity ...in the city he
loved so much [pause]

And he was even com-
mitted to remaining 39 on

participant in WW II, as a
journalist through a parade
of presidents, national and
local events, and as an inte-
gral part of the re-develop-
ment of the city of Quincy.

He reported history -with
clarity, with fairness, and
with great integrity.

He created history - when
he wrote about a lonely little
boy named Francis at Lakev-
ille Sanitarium with muscu-
lar dystrophy. This column
created perhaps his most
important and ongoing lega-
cy...one of global impact: it
led directly to the start of the
annual Labor Day Telethon
which has raised millions of
dollars to benefit children
with muscular dystrophy
and will someday lead to a
cure.

(...okay, maybe Jerry
Lewis helped a little, too.)

And finally. Uncle Henry
even inspired history -

Because by his example,
each of us who knew him
is challenged to reach that
same level of caring... of
action... of integrity that he
embodied.

How fitting it is today
that we have all gathered to
honor and to acknowledge
the man that he was... the

every birthday!

We all thought that was legacy he created ...and the
just a family joke... But in impact he leaves behind in
fact, it was the spirit and each of us.
to do more writing and learn energy of a 39-year-old that Eternally 39, Uncle Hen-

all about the newspaper Uncle Henry displayed as he ry was an uncle to look up

Uncle Henry was also

He observed history- as a

City Dedicates Henry W. Bos worth, Jr. Memorial Plaque

Remembrances From Family, Friends At City Hall Ceremony

*He Was A Reporter And Publisher
Of The Highest Standards'

(Remarks hy Sheila
Mclntyre, wife of former
Mayor-Senator Jim Mcln-
tyre, at the Henry Bosworth
Memorial Plaque dedica-
tion.)

It is truly a privilege to
participate today and to re-
call how Henry was a friend
to all of Quincy and an inte-
gral part of its political life.

Henry was an editor,
publisher, and ace reporter
but more importantly he
was a reporter and publisher
of the highest standards and
integrity. Every event of lo-
cal, county and state interest
was always covered openly
and fairiy, with his edito-
rial comments exclusively
reserved for his Sunbeams
column in which Henry left
no doubt where he stood on
issues.

Is the term "dogged re-
porter" still in vogue? 1
hope so for it recalls for us
the days of a sleuth follow-
ing a lead, determined to see
the story to the end. I can
attest that Henry was such
a reporter of local political
life.

Since Jim Mclntyre was
blessed to have the oppor-
tunities to serve the City
of Presidents and the Com-
monwealth for so many
years in varied capacities,
Henry was forever present
in our lives, never intrusive.

SHEILA McINTYRE

Wife Of the Late
Mayor-Sen. Jim Mclntyre

but genuinely interested in
campaign style of that era
and more importantly in the
philosophy of the candidate,
always reporting it in the
balanced, unslanted fashion
that reflected Henry's own
integrity and decency and
yet still presenting "just the
facts."

Henry covered every
office holder and aspiring
candidate with the same
style, addressing every issue
of concern to the citizens
and office holders with in-
formed, impartial reporting
and that is why so many of
our past and present officials
are here today.

I have photos of Henry in
our first headquarters for the
mayoral race with Amelio
Delia Chiesa. Those were
the days when copies of
just about everything were

made on a mimeograph ma-
chine with the candidate's
wife turning the handle over
and over. There was Henry
looking over my shoulder
to see what the latest copy
was. Quietly present but
never intrusive. Because
Jim genuinely liked people
so much. Henry, by accom-
panying him on a walk from
City Hall and observing the
discourse between mayor
and citizen would learn
what issues would be taken
note of, often jotted on a slip
of paper borrowed from the
reporter and added to the
mayor's pocket for later at-
tention.

Was the reporter in Jim's
pocket? Decidedly not, for
there was genuine moral-
ity and uprightness in both
those gentlemen and that es-
sentially is what they were -
gentlemen in every aspect of
their lives.

That is why we are here
today, in this Chamber of
the James R. Mclntyre Gov-
ernment Center honoring
a friend, a reporter of old
school style and yet one in-
formed about every issue of
the day, locally and nation-
ally.

This plaque will keep
Henry's memory alive and
be an inspiration to all who
pursue good government
and the reporting of it.

FAMILY AND FRIENDs of Henry W. Bosworth, including past and present city officials as well
as current and former staff of The Quincy Sun, attended the dedication of a bronze plaque in
memory of the Sun's late founder. Quincy Sun PhotoslRohert Noble

'He Had Courage To Start A
Business, He Built Goodwill'

f Remarks hy Quincy busi-
nessman Peter 0 Connell at
the Henry Bosworth Memo-
rial Plaque dedication.)

As I think about Henry
the two thmgs that come to
mind are courage and good-
will,

1 know recently that we
lost our friend Ted Ken-
nedy who we're lucky to
have so many great pictures
of Henry with him. But his
brother John over 50 years
agu wrote Profiles in Cour-
age. Henry wasn't in it but
Henry if we wrote Profiles
in Courage about Quincy
businessmen would have
the leading chapter.

Because when 1 think
back and the sacrifice and
courage that he had to start a
business it would be incred-
ible today to think about
somebody leaving his job
and starting a business. He
went from employee to em-
ployer overnight, something
that must have shocked his
family and something that
took great courage.

ing a family, the kids like

He was a special journal-

Henry. And yet he covered
the stories, and he covered

would consider, naming
an award for journalism to

the talented individual that
we are honoring today.

He would go back to
that magnificent room that
he called an office and beat
out that column on this
magnificent typew riter. And
he would talk the qualities
of the individual that we're
honoring. And he would talk
about the love that this man
had for his famil). And we
would talk about the unpar-
alleled loved that he had for
the newspaper business, for
reporting the story, for get-
ting the story and getting it
right.

He would talk about the
love that this man has for
Quincy - for Downtown
Quincy and the respect
that people had of him as a
business person who took a
newspaper that did not ex-
ist - the founding father of
the new spaper - and 40-plus
years later brought it to the
prominence that it is today.

And he would write
about his service to his
country as a World War II
veteran and he would wnte
about the magnificent heart,
the humanity and the char-
ity, that Henry Bosworth
lived each and every day

of his life. Not onlv raising

Now is a good time to de-

e.xtreme cold - such as a
tool shed or a comer of the

garage - and cover to pro-
tect from spills and dirt.

Wait until most of the
leaves have fallen from the
trees before raking them up
- it's no use trying to catch
them early - and add to the
mulch pile.

Your lawn will prob-
ably need one or two mow-
ings before winter sets in,
but once that last session
is done, lay out your gar-

damage. Clean away bits
of grass and dirt from the
blades and handles, and coat

reseeded area with a light
mulch mixture of dry grass

keep birds from eating most
of the seeds, while allow-
ing shoots to poke through

HOME TIP: Plant bulbs
(like tulips) now, before the

dormant until spring.

Norfolk County Quarterly Real Estate Activity Report

Norfolk County Reg-
ister of Deeds William P.
O'Donnell has issued a re-
port on real estate activity
in Norfolk County for the
quarter ending Sept. 30.

"Total dollar volume of
real estate sales in Norfolk
County for the quarter peri-
od from July to September,
2009, settled at $ 1 .35 billion,
an increase of $374 million
over the immediately previ-
ous April to June quarter. A
year to year comparison to
the July to September, 2(X)8.
quarter shows an increase in

this total value of just under
1 percent," O'Donnell said.
"The total number of
3,939 deeds recorded dur-
ing the July to September,
2009, quarter was also up
over the same quarter last
year increasing 1.3%. This
increase in the number of
deeds recorded is welcome
news in Norfolk County.
Another positive indicator
is the average sale price of
deeds over $1,000 (both
residential and commercial
properties) which increased
almost 2% over the same

quarter in 2008 to $525,714.
The increase is a strong in-
dication that prices may
have passed their low water
mark."

Mortgage recording ac-
tivity continued its run of
positive recordings rising
37.8% this quarter on a year
to year basis with 8,870 new
mortgages being recorded
in the quarter, according to
O'DonnelFs report. Total
mortgage value for the quar-
ter stood at $3.58 billion, up
over 32% from July to Sep-
tember, 2008.

"It is important to note
that this total mortgage value
amount does not necessarily
represent the true increase in
indebtedness as some mort-
gages may be recorded mul-
tiple times against different
parcels of land, are refi-
nances simply replacing ex-
isting debt, or are recorded
to secure equity credit lines
which may not be drawn to
their capacity." he added.

The Registry of Deeds,
located at 649 High St.,
Dedham, is the principal
office for real property in
Norfolk County.

Using Propane Safely: Know The Hazards

The Propane Gas As-
sociation of New England
(PGANE) urges all parents
to talk to their children
about the dangers of inhal-
ants and the safety hazards
of propane .

Children should NEVER
handle a propane tank, and
should never have unsuper-
vised access to a propane
tank. Propane is extremely
cold (it boils inside the tank
at 44 degrees below zero),
and is flammable.

The Propane Gas As-
sociation of New England
(PGANE) reminds every-
one, even the most seasoned
propane users, to review
propane hazards and safety
tips regularly.

When handled properly.

propane is a safe, clean, ver-
satile and highly efficient
fuel that can be used for
many consumer products.
To reduce any risk of an un-
wanted fire or burns from
propane, consumers should
routinely follow key guide-
lines for the safe operation
and maintenance of their
propane tanks:

General Safety Tips

• Talk to your children,
especially teenagers, about
the dangers of inhalants and
the safety hazards of pro-
pane.

• Designate the propane
tank area as a "No Play
Zone," keeping kids and
pets away from the equip-
ment.

• Do not smoke while

handling a propane cylin-
der.

• Always use and store
propane cylinders outdoors
in an upright position. Tip-
ping tanks can cause the liq-
uid to exert excess pressure
on the relief valve.

• Never use, store or
transport propane cylinders
near high temperatures.

• After filling or exchang-
ing a cylinder, take it home
immediately. While trans-
porting the cylinder, keep
your vehicle ventilated and
the valve closed or capped.

• Never use matches or
lighters to check for leaks.

What to do if you smell
gas

• Extinguish all smok-
ing materials and any other
open flames or sources of
ignition. Everyone should
vacate the building, vehicle
or area.

• Move away without us-
ing any electric switches,
appliances, thermostats, or
telephones.

• If you are able to, safely
close the gas shutoff valve
on the propane tank or cyl-
inder, turning it to the right
(clockwise).

• Immediately leave the
area and call 911 or the local
fire department from a cellu-
lar telephone or a neighbor's
telephone.

• Even if you do not con-
tinue to smell propane, do
not open or turn on the pro-
pane supply valve.

Do not re-enter the build-
ing, vehicle or area. Let a
quahfied propane service
technician and/or emer-
gency personnel check for
escaped propane.

• Have a properly trained
propane service technician
repair the leak.

Raiders Drop Patriot
League Opener

The North Quincy Red
Raiders, which opened its
2009 season with two straight
non-league wins over Bos-
ton Latin School and Sharon
High School, have suddenly
found themselves searching
for traction.

The Red Raiders (2-2
overall, 0-1 Patriot League)
dropped their second straight
game last Friday night against
Rockland High School, 33-
22. This loss follows a 28-12
loss to Plymouth South High
School two weeks ago. Tlie
team will look to rebound
against non-league opponent
Maiden High School on Fri-
day at Veterans Memorial
Stadium (7 p.m. start).

After the Maiden game,
the rest of the Raiders' sched-
ule consists of Patriot League
challengers. The team closes
out the season with games
against Duxbury, Hingham,
Scituate, Whitman-Hanson,

Silver Lake and Quincy.

Playing on the road at
Rockland High School,
North watched as the Bull-
dogs' Mike Driscoll (three
touchdowns) scored twice
in the first quarter (38-yard
run, two-yard run) to give
his team an early 14-0 ad-
vantage. Rockland would
push that lead to 21-0 on a
three-yard touchdown dash
from Terrence. Gibson early
in the second quarter before
the Raiders finally got on
the scoreboard when senior
quarterback Mike Stanton
connected with senior wide
receiver Paul Reamer on
a 97-yard pitch-and-catch,
bringing the score to 21-7 at
the halftime break.

North Quincy made it a
game in the third when se-
nior running back Terrance
Staley punched the ball in
from two-yards out (21-14),
bringing his team within one

score of tying the game en-
tering the fourth quarter, but
the Bulldogs would score
twice, once on a five-yard
run from Tim Fitzgerald and
again on a 20-yard scamper
from Driscoll. Rockland
missed both point after at-
tempts, placing the score at
33-14.

The Stanton-Reamer con-
nection produced the final
points of the game late in the
final quarter on an eight-yard
touchdown, but the Raiders,
for a second straight game
came up short in their come-
back attempt.

North Quincy will travel
to Duxbury HS on Oct. 16.

Notes: The Quincy Presi-
dents (0-3 overall) lost 55-6
to Hingham HS last Satur-
day at Veterans Memorial
Stadium. The team will play
on the road against Plymouth
South HS (3-0 overall) this
weekend.

ond day of tryouts for the
2010 spring baseball sea-
son on Saturday, Oct. 10

Quincy Youth BasebaWs Tourney Shortened By Rainy Other Commitments

Lions Club, Burke Club

Share 2009 Cal Ripken

Major Championship

Quincy Youth Baseball's
Cal Ripken Major League
championship tournament,
which was held back in June,
ended with the Lions Club
and the Burke Club sharing
the league title as co-cham-
pions.

In the tournament, the
Lions Club lost to the Burke
Club, 3-0, in their first head-
to-head game of the double-
elimination event; the Lions
then beat the Quincy Elks to
advance to the finals against
Burke. The Lions defeated
Burke, 3-1, in an II -inning
affair (a game that took two
days to finish) and because of
rain and the upcoming travel
season and district tourna-
ments, QYB and the coaches
decided to call it a co-cham-
pionship even though the
loss was the Burke Club's
only loss of the tournament.

In the final game, the Li-
ons' Joe Cochrane (two hits.

two walks) and Burke's Alex
Loughnane (ten strikeouts)
went head-to-head in a pitch-
er's duel. After six innings,
the score was 1-1 and David
Suslowicz and Scott Mele
(Burke Club) continued the
strong pitching through the
ll"* inning.

The Lions' first run came
in the third inning when
Greg Paulo got a base hit
and scored on a double by
Ryan Harty. In the fifth in-
ning, Burke's Quinlan Evans
walked and was forced by
Colin Evans, who was driv-
en home by Alex Loughnane
to tie the score at 1-1.

In the bottom of the ir\
which was played the fol-
lowing day due to darkness,
the Lions' Johnny Campbell
drew a walk and then Paulo,
with two outs, hit a game-
winning home run to right.

The Burke Club opened
the double-elimination tour-

ney with a 4-2 victory over
Burgin Planter. Drew My-
ers, Jake Latini (two hits)
and Nathan Campbell played
well against Burgin Planter.

The team won its second
straight game against the
Quincy Police, 4-3. Zach La-
tini's walk-off single was the
deciding factor. Mike Naz-
zaro and Jack Loughnane
played well for Burke and
Aaron Clancy and Pat Frasso
led the Quincy Police.

The Burke Club advanced
to the finals with a perfect
3-0 record after defeating
the Lions Club, 3-0. Colin
Evans pitched a complete
game victory and received
defensive help from Quinlan
Evans and John Mulcahy.
Kevin Fitzgerald had a big
game on offense.

Protect Yourself Against The Flu

Many Americans are not
aware of the true dangers
of the flu. On average, each
year the flu:

• Kills almost as many
Americans as breast cancer,
according to The Centers for
Disease Control and Preven-
tion (CDC)

• Kills two to three times
more Americans than HIV/
AIDS

• Kills the equivalent of
a major-league stadium full
of people

• Affects 65 million
Americans as they fall vic-
tim to influenza and flu-
related complications, such
as pneumonia, resulting in
200,000 hospitalizations
and 36,000 deaths, reports
the Journal of the American
Medical Association.

An influenza activity re-

port released by the CDC
found that 92 percent of the
pediatric deaths resulting
from influenza in the last
few flu seasons were in chil-
dren who weren't vaccinat-
ed. Each year, the influenza
strains change but, fortu-
nately, vaccinations against
influenza are also updated
each year to protect against
the current strains.

Whether you want a flu
vaccination for an elderly
parent, a child or yourself,
there are several online
educational resources to
help you with questions re-
garding the flu virus. You
can visit www.findaflushot.
com/clinic to access a flu
clinic locator, schedule a flu
shot reminder, read the lat-
est flu news and learn about
HlNl.

In addition, the CDC says
you can reduce your risk of
catching the flu by taking
the following precautions:

• Avoid close contact
with people who are sick

• Stay home when you
are sick

• Cover your mouth and
nose

• Wash your hands often

• Avoid touching your
eyes, nose and mouth.

Other ways to stay
healthy during this flu sea-
son and all year round:

• Get plenty of sleep

• Exercise regularly

• Drink plenty of fluids

• Eat nutritious foods

• Manage your stress
level.

reading skills.

What is Dyslexia?

Dyslexia is a language-
based learning disabilitv
that involves difficulties in
the area of reading, par-
ticularly with accurate and
rapid word identification.

GOING THROUGH

A comprehensive oral exam
Involves both an examination
of the teeth and a close in-
spection of the soft tissues of
the mouth. One condition the
dentist or hyglenist will be look-
ing for are leukoplakia." This
generic term applies to any
type of white patch that occurs
inside the mouth that cannot
be easily scraped off. In some
cases, leukoplakia are associ-
ated with smoking and regular,
heavy alcohol use. If so, they
are considered to be a pre-
cancerous condition. Smokers
and heavy drinkers may have
tongues with white or brown
coatings that are common
manifestations of leukoplakia.
Most cases are not serious,
but others could be life-threat-
ening if left untreated.

CHIROPRACTIC LEADS THE WAY

With all the discussion
concerning the need to curtail
rising health costs and revamp
the liealth-care system, there is
one undeniable fact: Healthy
individuals who take preventive
measures to maintain their well-
being will lead qualitatively better
lives and spend less on health care
than those who neglect their health.
This statement may seem to be as
obvious as it is simple; yet, far
too many people wait until their
health reaches a crisis point before
they seek costly interventions,
such as requiring a medical
regimen or surgery. However,
chiropractic has always offered a
non-invasive, drugless approach
to health care that stresses health
maintenance over symptoms and
health-crisis management. .An
ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure.

What are the most com-
mon misconceptions about
dyslexia?

One of the most com-
mon misconceptions is that
individuals with dyslexia
read "backw. ards " Although
many will reverse and con-
fuse letters — particularly
letters b. d and p because iti
their visual and sound sim-
ilarities—typically the main
problem relates to being able
to hear sounds in words and
conned those sounds with
the appropriate letters.

What are some of the
warning signs of Dyslex-
ia?

The following are some
of the characteristics pres-
ent in a child who may have
dyslexia and require further
evaluation from a qualihed
diagnostician:

The child reads be-
low his grade level.
The child has a slow or unusu-
al development of language
or vocabulary for his age.
The child has difficulty pro-
nouncing words (aminal for
animal), rhyming, or distin-
guishing sounds in words
The child makes manv letter
reversals (b d, u n, p q) or
transposes letters and words
(was. saw, on no) (auc-
tion caution, soiled solid,)
The child has difficul-
ty tinding the words he
wants to say or remember-
ing the words to songs
The child has dithculty re-
membenng the sequence of
the alphabet, months of the
year, number patterns, etc )
The child confuses the
concepts o\ right and left
The child has a poor con-

ce|)' •! time and ditti-
ciilt;. ^equenclng task^

A Job Well Done

On Monday, Sept. 28, 2009, at approximately 5:10
p.m., members of the Quincy Police Drug Control
Unit were working in the
West Quincy area. De-
tective Keenan observed
a male (suspect #1) standing
on the corner of Liberty and
Quincy Streets talking on a
cell phone. This Unit was in
that immediate area because
there has been drug activity
in the past that led to numer-
ous narcotics arrests.

As suspect # 1 was talking
on the cell phone, he con-
tinuously walked up and

down the sidewalk looking at every vehicle as it ap-
proached his location.

Approximately five minutes later, a black vehicle
pulled into a nearby parking lot and suspect #1 opened
the door and entered the driver's seat, with the fe-
male operator (suspect #2) moving over to the front pas-
senger seat. Another male (suspect #3) left a nearby tav-
ern and got into the back seat of the vehicle. Detective
Barkas observed the vehicle leave the lot and then drive
down the street to a vacant lot, then turn around and re-
verse direction.

The vehicle drove through Quincy Center, then
eastbound on Sea Street, stopping at Dunkin Donuts,
where the back seat passenger (suspect #3) exited the
vehicle and went inside. He then exited Dunkin Donuts
and walked next door to the gas station, where Detec-
tive Duran observed him purchasing what appeared to
be cigarettes. The vehicle then departed Dunkin Do-
nuts and traveled eastbound on Sea Street, turning left
onto Pequot Street, stopping at a house.

Suspect #3 went inside the house and the vehicle left,
traveling westbound on Sea Street. As the vehicle was
stopped in traffic on Sea Street, within 50 feet of the
front door of the Quincy Police Station, Detective Ryan
pulled beside the suspect vehicle and observed the driv-
er, suspect #1 with a magazine on his lap. On top of the
magazine were two white powdery lines, consistent with
the way narcotics are ingested.

At that time Detectives' Duran, Coen and Ward ap-
proached the vehicle on foot and saw the white powdery
lines. With badges displayed around their necks, the De-
tectives verbally identified themselves and opened the
door, retrieving the evidence while handcuffing the
driver, suspect #1.

Detective Duran opened the door and removed
the female passenger, suspect #2 and saw the white lines
on the book. Detective Barkas removed suspect #2
from the vehicle and advised her of Miranda rights.
Suspect #2 told the Detectives that she was having "a
very bad day."

Detective Barkas asked her if there were any other
narcotics inside the vehicle and she (suspect #2) vol-
unteered that she had a Klonopin inside her pocket-
book. Detective Coen then proceeded to look inside her
pocketbook and found a small plastic baggie with
white powder residue inside consistent with cocaine.
He also discovered ten Oxycontin pills and three
Klonopin pills without prescription. Suspect #2 was
placed under arrest too.

Suspect #l,a 28-year-old Whitman resident, was
charged with "Illegal possession of a class "B" sub-
stance (cocaine). Suspect #2, a 22-year-old Whitman
resident, was charged with "Illegal possession of a
class "B" substance (cocaine), possession of a class "B"
substance with intent to distribute, (Oxycontin) and
possession of a class "C" substance Klonopin. Both
arrestees were walked into the police station from the
crime scene, where they were booked in the usual man-
ner. The white powder was field tested and read positive
for cocaine.

A Thought

fOR THi ^£i/(

Of all God ^s gifts to man , laughter
is one of the most subtle and is one
of the most precious. It has neither
nationality nor religion. As an equal-
izer, it has no equal.

Laughter is one of the greatest
contributions that has been given to
mankind, and is one of the best things
that one person can give to another. Comedians try to give
that gift to us by telling jokes or humorous stories, but
we don't always need an entertainer to make us laugh.
We can give laughter to others; others can give laughter
to us: and best of all, we can give it to ourselves.

When was the last time you had a good laugh at
yourself? When was the last time you were in an em-
barrassing situation and didn't know what to do or
say? And when you thought about it later, you realized
the joke was on your and you could have just laughed!
Laughing can make you feel better in an embarrassing
situation and it certainly is better than crying. . . So keep
it as an important part of your life. As the saying goes:
when you laugh, the world laughs with you; when you
cry, you cry alone . . .

Stars

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
A changing situation calls for a
change in plans. Although you
might prefer the schedule you
had already worked up, you
could do better by agreeing to
make the needed adjustments.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
That once seemingly rock-solid
proposition you favored might
be hiding some .serious flaws.
Take time to check it more care-
fully and question anything that
seems out of kilter.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Finish up those lingering tasks
so that you can then arrange to
spend some time in quiet reflec-
tion. This will go a long way
in restoring both your physical
and spiritual energies.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
A family situation could heat up
and boil over unless you deal
with it as soon as possible Try
to persuade other family mem-
bers to w(uk with you to help
cool things down.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Cheer up, Kitty Cat! That low
feeling will begin to ebb by
midweek, and you should be
back in the social swiri in time
for the weekend. A long-post-
poned deal could be starting up
again.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) Going too fast and
too far on too little knowledge
could be risky. Best to slow
down and check for any gaps in
your information. It's what you
don't know that could hurt you.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Trying to make peace
among quarreling family mem-
bers, friends or colleagues can
be tough. Expect some resis-

tance, maybe even some ex-
pressions of resentment. But
stay with it

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Changing your
mind doesn't have to be a prob-
lem once you realize that you
might have good and sufficient
cause to do so. Make your ex-
planations clear and complete.
Good luck.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) An un-
kept promise can be irksome
and easily raise the Archer's
ire. But instead of getting into
a confrontation, take time to
check why someone you relied
on came up short.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 1 9) A new workplace
distraction creates an unneces-
sary delay. The sooner you deal
with it, the better for all con-
cerned. A personal matter also
should be attended to as soon as
possible.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Once again, the
Aquarian's gift for applying
both practical and creative
methods to resolve a situation
makes all the difference. Per-
sonal relationships thrive dur-
ing the weekend.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) A relationship appears to be
losing its once-strong appeal
for reasons that might be dif-
ferent from what you think. An
open and honest talk could lead
to some surprising revelations.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
life is bound by your belief that
character counts more than any-
thing else.

Stimulus Money
To Rehire Firefighters

Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Tuesday that $348,000
in Federal stimulus money will
be used to rehire four laid-off fire-
fighters as part of the administra-
tion's efforts "to do everything
possible to protect public safety"

amid the ongoing economic crisis.
Gov. Deval Patrick, working
with Mayor Koch and the Quincy
Fire Department, allocated the
money to the city from a share of
the state's stimulus money specifi-
cally set aside to offset cutbacks in

public safety departments across
Massachusetts.

"We are committed to protect-
ing public safety, and that means
keeping our neighborhood fire-
houses open and operational," said

86.102 square feet, respectively.

Several options had been ex-
plored, including razing the cur-
rent Central school and rebuilding
on the site. That option was dis-
missed because it would be impos-
sible to e.xpand on the school size
on just two acres of land. The cost

Vaccine Available Late November Or Early December

City Flu Clinics Postponed

Quincy residents looking to get
their flu shots in October now have
more than a month-long wait on
their hands.

A delay in the delivery of vac-
cine to the Quincy Health Depart-
ment from the State Health Depart-
ment has pushed the availability of
the vaccine to late November or
Early December.

The clinics were originally
scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 18,
Wednesday, Oct. 28 and Friday,

Oct. 30. Many other communi-
ties have been forced to postpone
community-wide clinics as well
because of the statewide problem.

Immunizations in November
and December are still effecfive
because seasonal influenza dose
not usually affect Massachusetts
until February or March.

Health Director Andrew
Scheele said 1,400 doses have
been delivered of the 2^00-dose
total. "We've got some in," said

postpone it."

The vaccine can be purchased
at Walgreens and CVS. but be-
cause a private company distrib-
utes it, there is a $20 cost. The city
vaccines are free.

DEP Approves New
Track Plan At Faxon Field

Court Orders City Pay
Adams Trust Audit, Legal Bills

State officials have ap-
proved plans for a running
track at Faxon Field next
to the new Quincy High
School, ruling that the plan
meets wetlands standards
and will not cause flooding
to the surrounding neigh-
borhoods.

The ruling by the Mas-
sachusetts Department of
Environmental Protection
upholds an earlier decision
by the Quincy Conservation
commission, which had is-
sued a number of conditions
on how the project should
proceed but otherwise grant-
ed it a green light.

Without allocating any
additional money for the
project, Mayor Thomas
Koch and the Quincy Park
and Recreation Board
moved last year to protect
Pageant Field from the con-
struction of a track and be-
gan work on a track next to
the high school.

"We are going to have a
first-class track facility for
the same amount of money
already approved, and we
will not be disturbing one
of our city's most beautiful
and scenic parks at Pageant
Field," Koch said.

Members of the Adams
family formally decided
they would not support a
running track in any form at
Pageant Field shortly before
the 2007 city election but
kept the decision private in
an effort to stay out of lo-
cal politics, Peter Boylston
Adams said in a recent tele-
vised appearance in Quincy.

"1 am proud that we are
abiding by the wishes and
vision of the Adams family
when it comes to Pageant
Field," Koch said.

The Department of En-
vironmental Protection,
in its decision, stated that
wetlands plans and storm-
water management "meets

the performance standards"
of state environmental
law. The ruling provided
a number of conditions on
construction, which largely
mirrored those given by the
Conservation Commission
in Quincy.

Plans for the 400-me-
ter track and field facility
will include a natural grass
infield, a storage building,
bleachers for 300 people
and off-street parking. The
track will replace existing
soccer, football and Softball
fields currently at the site.

As part of its work, the
DEP met with neighbors
in the area, and addressed
concerns about flooding and
other issues in the supersed-
ing order of conditions.

'"We were 100 percent
confident in the city's posi-
tion prior to this ruling, and
we remain 100 percent con-
fident in the city's position,"
said City Solicitor James
Timmins.

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Good deeds may or may
not be punished but they cer-
tainly can be costly as city
officials are learning in the
case of the Adams Temple
Trust Fund.

The City of Quincy is the
trustee of the Adams Fund
and the beneficiary since
1953 has been the Wood-
ward School for Girls.

However, school officials
have not seen much benefit
in years.

The Woodward School
received a payment from the
fund for $4 1 ,000 in 2008 but
the school had not received
any payments from the trust
in the four to five years prior
to 2008, according to Kevin
Madden, Assistant City So-
licitor.

Last Spring, the school's
attorney Sarah Kim of the
Boston law firm, Binghm
McCutchen LLP, filed suit
seeking an accounting of the
trust.

The courts agreed, or-
dered an audit back to 1953,
and, also, ordered the city,
as trustee, to pay the audit
bill.

City Councillors recently
balked at paying a $60,000
bill for that 56-year audit,
but that's only half the bill.

The $60,000 bill hasn't
been paid and another
$50,000 in additional bills
are on the wav.

Originally, council-

lors planned a hearing on
the fund, challenged the
$60,000 bill, and questioned
the city's role as trustee of a
private fund.

More recently, the coun-
cil placed the bill on file and
it has not been paid.

However, it is unlikely
the council has much choice
in the matter of the bills as
Judge Robert Langlois of
Norfolk County Probate
Court ordered the audit and
payment.

"The court ordered that

the city produce an account-
ing back to 1953," Madden
said of the decision issued
last spring by Judge Lan-
glois who, also, appointed
Attorney Jim McLaughlin
as Special Master of the Ad-
ams Temple Fund.

Madden noted that city
officials originally produced
reports on such trusts and
private accounts in annual
municipal report.

However, city officials
have not published an annu-
al report in nearly a decade.

So far, the bill for the
audit being conducted by
Newburg & Co., Wellesley,
totals $90,000, according
to City Treasurer Deborah
Coughlin who confirmed
that a $20,000 invoice has,
also, been filed for legal
fees.

None of the audit costs or
legal fees can be charged to
the fund under the terms of
the judge's order.

"At this point, the city
is the holder of the prop-
erty given in trust," Madden
said.

As of October 1 , the Ad-
ams Temple Fund totaled
$332,666.59, according to
Warren Sproul , Director
of the Municipal Finance
Department. Sproul said
the trust's principal is
$311,593.86.

According to Kim, "After
questions arose concerning
the city's management of the
two trusts. Woodward made
repeated requests to the city
for an accounting. . . ."

When no accounting was
forthcoming, Kim said in a
formal statement, "Wood-
ward filed suit seeking an
order from the court requir-
ing the City to provide an
explanaUon of its manage-
ment of the trusts."

The Adams Temple Fund
was established nearly 200
years ago by President John
Adams and another strand
later by his descendant
Charles Francis Adams.

The original trust was
intended to help build the
United First Church and,
later, to fund Adams Acad-
emy which opened in 1875
and closed in 1910 and, fi-
nally, to help educate Quin-
cy's children.

In 1953, the funds were
officially redirected to the
Woodward School for Girls
with the principal to remain
intact and payments to be
made from interest and in-
come from investments.

"Since 1953, the Wood-
ward School has been the
sole beneficiary of two
public charitable trusts es-
tablished by President John
Adams and Charies Francis
Adams," Attorney Kim not-
ed in a formal statement on
the matter.

"The probate action does
not allege any wrongdoing
on the part of President Ad-
am's descendants," stated
Kim who concluded, "The
accounting is necessary to
assure public confidence in
the administrator of these
valuable public charitable
trusts and to ensure that
Woodward may continue to
provide the best education
possible to its students."

If the trust is dissolved,
the remaining funds could
be assigned to a male heir of
the Adams family.

Madden said the case
won't be heard again in Pro-
bate Court until next June.

Councillors have not set
a date for a review of the is-
sues. The bills are due, but
they have been placed on
file.

BANDING TOGETHER

Today's marrying couples
relish the chance to choose
matching high-quality wedding
bands. For many, the search for
the perfect bands begins with
platinum, which is as durable as
it is gorgeous. A subdued matte
finish is currently the most popular.
Whatever precious metal is
chosen, couples favor comfortable
interior curvatures that fit the
finger perfectly. It has also become
perfectly acceptable for men to
sport diamonds in their wedding
bands, which ups the sophistication
and sparkle quotient considerably.
The gemstones are often set so that
they sit flush with the surface of
the ring, which provides a smooth
look. One popular look for men's
wedding bands incorporates round

'Never Been A Safety Issue '

Fatseas Asserts QHS
Electrical Problem Solved

Jim Fatseas, the mayor's
Chief of Staff, said last week
that electrical deficiencies
reported at the new Quincy
High School are being cor-
rected and never posed any
safety problem.

"This has never been a
safety issue," Fatseas said,
stressing that "No one was
at risk."

Fatseas spoke after con-
tacting the project manager
for the high school construc-
tion and receiving assuranc-
es that the problems would
be solved at no expense to
the city.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi raised the is-
sue of electrical deficiencies
at the Sept. 29 council meet-
ing and asked the Education
Committee to hold hearings
on the problem.

Prior to the discussion,
Raymondi read a Sept. 20
e-mail sent to councilors
by former Quincy science

teacher David Smith of
Wollaston.

Smith alerted councillors
to electrical deficiencies at
the new high school after
current teachers outlined
the problem to him. Smith
taught science in the Quincy
schools for 38 years.

In the e-mail. Smith de-
scribed problems with 'out-
lets in science rooms, "In
at least two rooms, exten-
sion cords need to be run
across the room in order to
plug things in and not blow
breakers. 1 was initially told
that the problem would be
fixed this summer."

In addition, Smith said
he was told the city would
have to pay a $150,000 bill
to correct the problem.

Contacted after the meet-
ing. Smith said, "Several
teachers told me about the
problem. I can't see how
a brand new multi-million
dollar school can have elec-

trical problems."

After the meeting.
Fatseas said the contrac-
tor will cover all corrective
actions as city officials told
them, "We don't think you
engineered it properly We
want it fixed... Not on our
dime."

"They're going to review
each outlet," Fatseas, refer-
ring to Tishman Construc-
tion, project manager for the
high school work.

After the review and ad-
justments, Fatseas said that
each outlet will be able to
carry "the full load that sci-
ence teachers think is ap-
propriate " He described the
contractor's plans to install
a G.F.I, or ground fault in-
dicator that should identify
all problems so that any de-
ficiency can be identified.

Smith said that Fatseas
has contacted him several
times and. hopefully, the
problem will be solved.

THE HISTORY CHANNE

• On Oct. 20, 1774, the
First Continental Congress
creates the Continental As-
sociation, which calls for a
complete ban on all trade
between America and Great
Britain of all goods, wares
or merchandise. It was one
of the first acts of Congress
behind which every colony
firmly stood.

• On Oct. 22, 1797, the
first parachute jump of note
is made by Andre-Jacques
Gamerin from a hydrogen
balloon 3200 feet above
Paris. As he failed to in-
clude an air vent at the top
of the prototype, Garnerin
oscillated wildly in his de-
scent, and he landed shaken
but unhurt.

• On Oct. 24, 1861,
workers of the Western
Union Telegraph Company
link the nation's eastern and
western telegraph networks,
completing the first trans-
continental line. The ob-
stacles to building the line
were huge. Among other
things, Sioux warriors had
cut a completed part of the
line and took a long section
of wire for making brace-
lets.

• On Oct. 19, 1931, Da
vid Comwell, later known
as spy novelist John le
Carre, is bom in Poole,
England. He joined the Brit-
ish Foreign Service in 1959.

His 1986 book. "A Perfect
Spy," was the first of his
novels not submitted to the
British government for ap-
proval and possible censor-
ship, given his former intel-
ligence status.

• On Oct. 25, 1944, dur
ing the Battle of the Leyte
Gulf, the Japanese deploy
kamikaze ("divine wind")
suicide bombers against
American warships for the
first fime. More than 1,321
Japanese aircraft crash-
dived their planes into Al-
lied warships during the
war.

• On Oct. 21, 1962,
Chubby Checker sings
his 1960 No. 1 hit, "The
Twist," on Ed Sullivan's va-
riety show. His appearance
boosted sales of the record,
and in January the song hit
No. 1 again, making "The
Twist" the only record ever
to top the charts twice .

• On Oct. 23, 1989, 23
people die in a series of
explosions sparked by an
ethylene leak at the Phillips
Petroleum Company factory
in Pasadena, Texas. A sub-
sequent investigation found
that the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration
(OSHA) had not done a
comprehensive inspecfion
of the plant since 1975.

Political Shades Of 1992

The special election for U.S. Senate to fill the unexpired
term of the late Ted Kennedy could trigger a significant
shift in the local political landscape.

It is also drawing comparisons to Election Year 1992.

Those are certainly worth pondering.

Seventeen years ago, the political dominoes began to fall
in March of 1992 when popular seven-term Cong. Brian
Donnelly announced he would not seek re-election. By the
time the landscape had settled that November. Quincy had a
new congressman (and a new congressional district), a new
state senator and a new state representative.

Soon after Donnelly's decision to retire from Congress,
then State Sen. Paul Harold announced he was a candidate
for the seat. Then Rep. Michael Morris-
sey announced he would run for Harold's
Senate seat. And Morrissey's state repre-
sentative seat attracted Ward 3 City Coun-
cillor Larry Chretien and Michael Bellot-
ti, son of former lieutenant governor and
attorney General Francis X. Bellotti. The
younger Bellotti had recently won elec-
tion to a four-year term as a Democrafic
state committeeman.

Donnelly's Congressional seat also drew interest from
then Norfolk County District Attorney William Delahunt.
But Delahunt dropped out of the race after a new redistrict-
ing plan for congressional districts removed them from
the open seat in Donnelly's district. Instead, Harold had to
square off in a new district - which stretched from Quincy
to the Cape and Islands - against long-time Congressman
Gerry Studds.

Despite amassing a 7, 695- vote margin over Studds in
(Quincy, Harold lost the primary and Studds would be elect-
ed the first congressman in the new district in November.

Other primary election winners who would win in No-
vember were Morrissey for Senate and Bellotti for state rep-
resentative in the First Norfolk District.

Fast forward to the special election (Dec. 8 primaries and
Jan. 19 final election) to fill Kennedy's senate seat.

The players are different but there
could still be some significant musical
chairs poliUcally speaking.

The first domino would be if Martha
Coakley, the state's attorney general, is
elected to succeed Kennedy in the U.S.
Senate. Coakley is seeking the Democrat-
ic nomination among a handful of con-
tenders, including Cong. Mike Capuano
of Somerville; Alan Khazei, co-founder
of City Year; and Stephen Pagliuca, managing partner of the
Boston Celtics.

If Coakley were elected senator, the state legislature
would appoint someone to fill Coakley 's unexpired term
as attorney general. The last fime the House of Representa-
fives and Senate appointed an A.G. was in 1969. That year,
former House Speaker Robert Quinn was appointed to fill
the seat vacated by former A.G. Elliot Richardson who was
named U.S. Attorney General in the Nixon Administrafion.

There would be no special election for Coakley's attor-
ney general seat if she won the U.S. Senate race. So, theo-
retically, her A.G. seat wouldn't be "open" because the Leg-
islature would name a replacement. And that replacement
- unlike Paul Kirk who is serving as interim U.S. Senator
until a successor for Kennedy's seat is elected - would be
free to campaign for a full four-year term as state attorney
general next year.

Some political observers believe filling Coakley's seat
would rest within the House because there are more rep-
resentafives than senators. But some lawmakers may shy
away from that appointment since the replacement would
have to face re-election and a primary would be about eight
months away. Perhaps that short fime span would not be
enough time to raise significant campaign funds or generate
name recognition.

As a result, some potential candidates outside the House
have began sizing up a campaign for attorney general in
2010.

Among them: Norfolk County District Attorney William
Keating. A former state senator and state representafive,
Keafing was elected Norfolk County D.A. in 1998. His cur-
rent term runs out next year.

Without Coakley's election, the speculation probably

COAKLEY

ends in these parts.

But it's Keating who may be the biggest factor in trigger-
^^^^^^^^^ ing a ripple effect.

^^m ^^H Because if Coakley is elected, but
^^4P fl^H Keating doesn't run for attorney general
^^ '^t^^^B ~ ^^^ instead opts to seek a fourth term
^^p^l^fl^H as Norfolk County D.A. next year, the
^^1 ^^^^1 speculation wheels grind to a halt.

^^" ** ^^" Keating has a decision to make: either
KFATINP

seek a fourth four-term term as Norfolk

County D.A. or make a run for the state

AG. post.

If the decision is the latter, then expect more political
tremors throughout the landscape. It is quite conceivable
that some of those dominoes would reach the Quincy legis-
lative delegation and perhaps the City Council.

A Keating for state attorney general campaign would
open up the Norfolk County district attorney post. Some ob-
servers believe State Sen. Michael Morrissey, an attorney,
would take a crack at running for Norfolk County DA. And
of course, if Morrissey did, his Senate seat would open.

Among those who would be considered likely candidates
for an open state senate seat would be Rep. Stephen Tobin.
Elected in 1989, Tobin would be a logical choice as a poten-
tial candidate since his father, Arthur Tobin, served as state
senator.

Steve Tobin represents the Second Norfolk District which
is the only state representative district entirely in Quincy.
(Rep. Bruce Ayers's First Norfolk District represents areas
of Quincy and Randolph, while Rep. Ron Mariano's Third
Norfolk District includes areas of Quincy and Weymouth.)

Of course, Ayers and/or Mariano may take a good look at
an open senate seat, too.

And what if one of those state representative seats were
to open?

Consider this: There are two current city councillors who
live in Tobin's district: Ward 3 Councillor Kevin Coughlin
and Ward 5 Councillor Doug Gutro. (Both Coughlin and
Gutro are unopposed in the city election next month.)

Ward 4 Councillor Jay Davis, who faces a challenge by
Brian Palmucci, lives in Ayers' First Norfolk District.

Could they be interested in running for state representa-
tive?

Of course, there are a lot of political dots to connect be-
fore this type of scenario plays out.

Final thought: Recent polls show Martha Coakley de-
feating Capuano in the Democratic primary and defeating
State Sen. Scott Brown of Wrentham - who is seeking the
Republication nomination - in the final election.

Is that background music I hear for those musical
chairs?

THINK PINK - Quincy High School Senior Night Out
Committee has come up with an in-
teresting - and colorful - way to raise Q
funds.

It's called "Flocking."

This fun community fundraiser in-
volves putting a flock of plastic flamin-
goes on a family yard. The family is
asked to make a small donation to have
the pink flock sent onto another friend
or family's yard.

Proceeds from the flocking fund-
raiser help support all the activities re-
quired to have a successful All Night
Party after the traditional Senior Prom.
The party is hosted by parents, families and friends of Quin-
cy High School and provides a safe, non alcohol and drug-
free environment for the students to enjoy and lasts from 1 1
p.m. to 5 a.m.

Prefer to keep your green grass pink-free? Flocking
insurance is available to prevent your family from being
flocked.

If you would like to flock someone send a $20 check
made out to QHS Senior Night Out Committee with the
name and address of the family to be flocked. Open to Quin-
cy lawns only.

The address is: Senior Night Stay Out, Quincy High
School, 52 Coddington St., Quincy, MA 02169.

Says Jay Davis ^Has Always Been There For Me'

I have lived on Wil-
lard Street in Ward 4 for 72
years, all of my life.

When I first voted for Jay
Davis 1 did not know him
personally. Several years
ago 1 started having prob-
lems with flooding in my
back yard.

1 contacted the NFPA
several tines but he would
get the issue resolved prop-
erly. The water build up
around my garage froze. I

fell on the way to my car,
broke a tendon in my thumb
and ended up requiring sur-
gery. I didn't known what
to do about the flooding or
where to turn.

Jay Davis came to my
rescue. He went to work
with the NFPA. Jay and the
engineers came to my yard a
number of times and stayed
at it until the situation was
resolved.

I then suggested to my

They will discuss the role

er he and NFPA resolved her
issues.

Due to Councillor Da-
vis's effort and the NFPA's
cooperation, the natural run-
ning waterway behind my
property is now maintained
twice a year and my yard is
dry.

Over the years our neigh-
borhood has gotten more let-
ters from Jay informing us
about meetings and issues
that could affect us than 1
can count. 1 haven't been
able to attend every one of
the meetings, but I have at-
tended dozens. He really
listens to what we have to
say, and he always takes the

time to thank each one of us
personally for attending and
participating.

When you get older, you
sometimes feel that people
don't really listen to vou.
You sometimes feel neglect-
ed.

Jay Davis has always
been there for me. phone
call after phone call He has
always listened to me. He
has followed through time
after time

He is caring. He is de-
pendable. He is nou m\
friend.

We need to keep Jay Da-
vis in Ward 4.

License Board Action At Oct. 6 Meeting

Joan's Scrumptious Scallops

While working at the polls, my two co-
workers Judy and Joan and 1 talked mostly
about food and of course recipes.

And so it was last week when I was so
glad we had a lull, which allowed me to
write down the recipe for this delicious
scallop entree.

It was Joan who began to tell me about
how she prepared the scallops the night
before. Here is the easiest, most delicious
way, as you will notice after reading the
recipe.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees

BAKED SCALLOPS
1 -pound large scallops
Va cup of Ritz crackers (crushed)

1/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs
1/2 stick butter (melted)
1/3-cup half & half or 2% milk
Pepper for top

Combine the crackers, breadcrumbs, and
butter. Place half of this mixture on the bot-
tom of a 1 -quart baking dish. Sprinkle a
little pepper on top of each scallop. Then
place each scallop one by one all around the
dish on top of the mixture.

Then on the top, place the rest of the mix-
ture. Pour the half & half or milk around
the perimeter of the dish. (Not on top)

Bake for 30 minutes. Joan said she served
it with fluffy Jasmine Rice, which goes great
with the scallops.

Enjoy!

Plans For New Central Middle School 'Moving Forward'

Com 'd From Paf>e 1

seen first hand what a new
school can do," said DeOis-
lotaro. 'There is tremendous
goodness in a new school."
Mayor Thomas Koch
asked the board to consider

«

amending Bragg's original
motion to include havmg the
old site be returned to the
city and sold, which would
help funding the construc-
tion of the new school.

Bragg said she was a
"little reluctant" includ-
ing the amendment before
the acquisition of the new
land was official. "I'm not
comfortable making that
vote right now," Bragg said.

"This is a big step going for-
ward."

Koch understood Bragg's
sentiments and removed the
amendment, but said he
would like to see the funds
from the sale of the old mid-
dle school site to eventu-
ally be used. Koch, too, felt
confident with the Winfield
site. "This site makes a lot
of sense," he said.

Committee member

Elaine Dwyer also lauded
the site. "1 love this site,"'
she said. Tve always loved
this site for a new middle
school."

City Solicitor and former
School Committeeman Jim

limmins, a member ol the
Central Building Commit
lee, said the committee was
concentrating on sites north
of Furnace Brook f^irkway
because they were further
away from the congestion of
Quincy Center, which would
ease busing demands. Tim-
mins said the parcels' prox-
imity to the Atlantic and
Broad Meadows schools
was a positive for those stu-
dents who would eventually
be attending Central.

"One of the things it'll do
is assist Atlantic and Broad
Meadow," said Timmins.
"We have the opportunity
to go to a site and work
anew,"

Central Middle School: A Brief History

With the school commit-
tee's approval of a site for
the construction of a new
middle school, the days of
one of Quincy 's most recog-
nized landmarks are num-
bered.

The Central Middle
School, built in 1894, was
considered a modern archi-
tectural marvel for its time.
The structure is all brick
with granite trimming. It
was wired for electricity and
gas piping, both of which
were regarded as luxuries
in buildings more than KX)
years ago.

Central was originalK
built to relieve the over-
crowding in the former
four-room high school. Cen-
tral was capable of holding
just under .'^(K) students at
the time Rapid expansion
of Quincy 's population and
need for higher education
led to the school's enroll-
ment more than doubling in
1 0 years. In 1 905 , the school
committee voted to add 12

rooms and a gymnasium.

The year 1914 had one
of the most unique classes
in the histt)ry of the school.
Dubbed at the time as the
school's "worst class," by
teachers, not a single stu-
dent made the honor roll by
graduation. The class turned
out to have some of Quin-
cy's most famous sons and
daughters.

Probably the most no-
table was Oscar-winning
actress Ruth Gordon.

The building started to
show wear in 1935. Boiler
problems led to inadequate
heating for students and
teachers. Along with the
boiler repairs, the pla\-
ground was resurfaced and
the buildinjt; was given a
fresh new coat of paint, in-
side and outside.

In 1953, the school un-
derwent a renovation, which
included four new rooms.
the narrowing of stairways
and a re-done basement.
Repairs were also made to

the gymnasium roof and the
plumbing and electrical in
the building were updated.

A structural problem
known as the "Year of the
Beam" came to light in
October of 1988. Contrac-
tors added two classrooms,
removed the balcony and
enlarged the stage in the
Learning Onter section of
the building.

Central continued to
develop programs that of-
fered opportunities to help
students keep pace with the
change of the 21 ' century.

City Council unanimous-
ly accepted nearly $20,000
in donations, as well as of-
fice furnishings, from pri-
vate and corporate donors at
the Sept. 29 meeting.

However, councillors
postponed action on Oct. 5
on accepting a $7J>00 do-
nation from the Mayor's
Golf Tournament pending
a discussion of plans for
the revival of the Wollaston
Theater.

Councillor Joseph Finn
asked that the council vote
be delayed until Mayor
Thomas Koch's staff out-
lines plans and the financing
for the Wollaston Theater
project.

The theater building was
expected to be purchased
by the New York developer.
Street Works through a non-
profit entity.

According to Chief As-
sessor Marion Fantucchio,

Wollaston Theater Develop-
ment of White Plains, NY
purchased the property in
June for $1,145,000.

Mayor Thomas Koch has
made the restoration and re-
vival of the theater part of
his redevelopment plans for
Wollaston Center.

Koch designated a por-
tion of the donations from
annual mayor's golf tourna-
ment toward the project.

The 1 ,2(X)-seat theater
which opened in 1926 and
closed in 2003 is listed in
the National Register of
Historic Places.

A non-profit organiza-
tion, the Wollaston The-
ater Foundation, has been
formed to oversee the plans.
Quincy native Kris Meyer, a
Hollywood producer, is the
director.

At the Oct. 5 meeting,
councillors asked for a re-
port on how the city is in-
volved in the restorafion

effort.

At the previous meeting
on Sept. 29, Councillors did
accept a $12,200 gift from
various donors and the May-
or's Golf Tournament for
both the Wollaston Theater
and for charitable purposes.

In addition, councillors
accepted $525 from Han-
naford Bros. Co. for the
city's Crime Prevention
Program; $500 from Han-
naford for the Fire Protec-
tion events fund and a gift of
furniture from Daniel Quirk
for the Quincy Police Train-
ing Facility.

In a written report. Police
Chief Paul Keenan asked
that the furniture be accept-
ed for the training facility
classroom which is nearly
completed.

Councillors accepted all
the gifts and directed that
the donors be thanked on
behalf of the city.

Tips On Vehicle Maintenance And Repair

(NAPS) — Here's some
car maintenance advice
that will help keep your ve-
hicle operating properly and
hopefully save you money.

For starters, make sure
your car has the right brakes
and they're working prop-
erly. Today's vehicles are
composed of advanced tech-
nological systems.

Brakes are part of that
system and configured to
mteract with the other ve-
hicle components in a cer-
tain way. Brake replacement
work can be done just about
anywhere, but installing af-
tcrmarket brake components
not tested and designed for
that particular vehicle ma>
hurt other parts of the brak-
ing system and cause prob-
lems.

"If you have one weak
link in a system, the other
links have to work harder to
make up for that deficiency."

said Kurt Pursche. brake sys-
tems specialist. GM Service
and Parts Operations. "The
least expensive component
of the braking system is the
brake pad. but if you skimp
on the pad. it will cause the
entire system as a whole to
work harder, which could
lead to more expensive re-
pairs down the road."

Replacement brake com-
ponents are not regulated to
any specific performance
or design standards. That's
why it's important to have
brake work performed at a
dealer. Goodwrench tech-
nicians go through exten-
sive brake service training
that includes familiariza-
tion with complex braking
technologies such as anti-
lock brakes and Stabili Trak
systems. The company also
offers a full line of Genuine
GM Parts and ACDelco af-
termarket brake products

that are tested and manufac-
tured to meet specific brake
performance standards.

Chuck Greening, presi-
dent. Greening Labs, Inc.,
and his engineering team
have been testing and cer-
tifying aftermarket brake
components from a variety
of brake manufacturers for
more than 40 years. They
recommend consumers look
for brake components that
are designed and tested U)
meet speciHc performance
requirements for their in-
dividual vehicle when it's
time to have brake work
performed.

"There are no Federal
Motor Vehicle Safet\ Stan-
dards for aftermarket brakes,
so getting replacement brake
parts that have been tested
to meet certain performance
standards is essential." said
Greening. "Companies like
GM come to us to certify

that the brakes they offer
their customers meet spe-
cific design and quality stan-
dards."

How do you know when
it's time to replace the
brakes?

There are no specific vi-
sual characteristics to deter-
mine if a car's brakes are bad
without taking the wheel off
the vehicle. However, many
vehicles come equipped with
a small thin piece of metal
attached to the brake pad that
acts as a warning indicator
This device makes a chirp-
ing noise during brake appli-
cation and lets you know the
brake pad is getting low and
should be replaced.

Signs that a vehicle may
need new brakes:

1 ) Poor brakes may cause
whistling, squeaking, grind-
ing or pulsing or may make
the vehicle shimmy.

2) You need to press

harder on the pedal to make
the vehicle stop or the brake
pedal can be pushed all the
way to the floor.

3) The vehicle pulls to
one side when pressure is
applied to the brakes.

Some reasons for brake
failure include excessive
heat or using the wrong
product on the vehicle. Heat
can be caused by extreme use
(such as "riding" the brakes
while driving), constant use
in intense conditions (such
as mountain driving) or im-
proper calibration. Extreme
heat can damage brake ro-
tors, leading to more serious
and expensive problems.

Tips for making brakes
last longer:

1) Replace; brakes with
original equipment manu-
facturer replacement parts
designed and tested specifi-
cally for that vehicle.

2) Don't overload the ve-

hicle with too much cargo or
a trailer it can't handle.

3) Don't drag the brakes
while accelerating.

4) Make sure the parking
brake is in good working or-
der and test it often.

Goodwrench recom-
mends and performs regular
brake inspections as part
of its Multi-Point Vehicle
Inspection process every
time a car is brought in for
service. Additional brake
replacement recommenda-
tions are <nitlined in the ve-
hicle's owner's manual.

For more information,
visit vwvw.goodwrench.coni.

Taking a vehicle back to
the dealer for brake service
can ensure you'll get qual-
ity parts, brakes specifical-
ly designed and tested for
your car, and components
installed by trained techni-
cians.

The Problem

While motorists recog-

weather, few are aware that
prolonged exposure to heat
also accelerates the rate of
corrosion and contributes to
battery failure. Auto service

years in average climates,
but only two to three years
in areas with high heat or
extreme cold.

The Reasons

"There are many factors
that can cause a battery to
fail," says Alexia Hayes, a
product development en-
gineer and mother of two
young children. "Motorists
who take many short trips
on a daily basis, those who
frequently forget to turn off
their lights or make com-
mutes of less than 20 min-
utes are also at risk. The
combination of performing
many starting cycles, cou-
pled with short run times,
will leave a battery below
the ideal charge specifica-
tion for most of its short-
ened life."

Hayes notes that parents
with young children, new
drivers and seniors often
experience these driving
patterns and are therefore
especially vulnerable.

The Solution

Hayes advises, "A good
set of jumper cables with
the latest technology will

take the fear and guesswork
out of dead battery concerns
and make jump starts easy
and safe.

"Ordinary jumper cables
can cause sparking or short-
ing if they're not properly
attached, which can result in
serious injury to the user," she
adds, "and traditional jumper
cables can produce a power
surge that severely damages
a vehicle's expensive com-
puters and electronics."

Fortunately, there's in-
novative patented tech-
nology now available in
new Smart Jumper Cables
from Michelin, which of-
fer built-in surge protec-
tion and automatic polarity
adjustment. You can con-
nect either clamp to either
positive or negative connec-
tions. There's no guesswork,
sparking or shorting.

WIC Ramp Eases Access For jm
Women, Infants and Children

Making it to an appoint-
ment at the Women. Infants
and Children (WIC) Nu-
trition Program at Quincy
Medical Center is much eas-
ier for clients using strollers
or wheelchairs since a new,
accessible ramp and entry-
way were recently installed.

The project was com-
pleted thanks to the gener-
osity and know-how of a
group of local contractors
and businesses that donated
their services to bring the
project to fruition.

"We received a grant
from the Massachusetts De-
partment of Public Health
to purchase the materials
lor it. but we had no way
to actually build the sorely
needed ramp." said Irene
VanRompay, director of the
WIC program.

Hearing this plight. At-
torney Richard Barr>. who
is a member of the Quincy
Medical Center Board of
Trustees and the Rotary
Club of Quincy. approached
fellow Rotarian Frank
Trainor. president of Com-
monwealth Building, Inc.
for help with the project.
Trainor signed on as the
general contractor, supply-

mg the labor and oversight,
and enlisted Holmes and
Edward Architects, Inc.; A.
Graziano Concrete, Inc.;
U Rent It Tools; and Curry
Ace Hardware to donate ad-
ditional services, materials
and equipment.

"Every business owner
we contacted for assistance
could not have been more
receptive and generous."
Trainor said. "This was one
of the most gratifying proj-
ects that our own associates
have worked on. I tip my
hat to their genuine con-
cern about how important
this project was. and they
were able to see first-hand
how a simple access ramp
can make a huge difference
m the everyday lives of so
many people."

.Ion Nelson. QMC's as-
sistant director of Facilities,
worked closels with the
contractors during the six-
week construction project
and estimated the cost of the
donated services to be more
than $20,000.

"I can't say enough about
Commonwealth Building
and all of the other people
who made this project hap-
pen," Nelson says. "They

really did an outstanding
job."

efforts and "officiall>"

CREATING JOBS FOR THE CITY OF QUINCY

Sound economic development doesn't ravage a community; it revitalizes it. It doesn't suck the
life out of a neighborhood; it breathes life into it. It doesn't shut neighbors out of the process;
it invites them into it.

As the Ward Four City Councillor Jay Davis has worked with neighbors, City and State officials,
organized labor, and developers to bring new businesses into Ward Four including, Fallon
Ambulance, Lowe's and BJ's, while also keeping business such as P.V. Sullivan in Quincy. When
development has not been good for the area Jay has worked with and supported neighbors to stop
projects, including, Qifhvalk II, and proposed condominiums on West St. and Filbert St. Sound
economic development increases commercial tax revenue, eases the tax burden on homeowners,
and creates quality jobs for Quincy residents. Sound economic development doesn't just happen.

It hs^fpens because stroi^ lesMlers, like Jay Dam, work hart to make it hanmi.

On Tuesday, November 3nl,
Re-elect Jay Davis!

Stimulus Money
To Rehire Firefighters

Cant 'd From Page I
Koch. "We level-funded
both the police and fire de-
partment budgets, minimiz-
ing cuts compared to many
other cities in Massachu-
setts. We are managing this
crisis by working together,
and this funding will be
critical to help us weather
the storm."

Fire Chief Joseph Barron
said the award for his depart-
ment marks a first-round of
funding and other avenues
to maintain services for resi-
dents amid the recession.

Koch cast the Fire De-

partment funding as one
piece of a broader public
safety plan that also calls for
seeking federal assistance
to hire more police patrol
officers, expanding the de-
partment's drug unit and
maintaining neighborhood
patrols throughout the city.

There were no layoffs
in the Police Department
this year but a number of
retirements have been left
unfilled.

This summer, the Police
Department used existing
resources to double the size
of the Drug Unit, leading to

a 23 percent spike in drug
arrests during the month of
August.

The Mayor pointed to
two major agreements with
employees that he said pre-
vented wholesale cutbacks
to the school, police and fire
departments. An agreement
to join the state-run health
insurance program will save
$10 million this year, and a
number of unions, including
police and fire, agreed to a
one-year wage deferral that
will save several million
dollars more.

Legal Strategy For

Harry Potter Halloween Celebration Oct. 24

The Quincy Community ries Oct. 24 at 1 p.m. at the tion. Care of Magical Cre-

United Methodist Church,
40 Beale St., will host its
fourth community-wide Hal-
loween celebration based on
the popular Harry Potter se-

church.

Children and adults have
over the years attended
classes in Astronomy. Po-
tions, Herbology. Divina-

ations, etc.

For more information,
call the church office at 617-

773-3319.

City councillors want
speedy action on the city's
water pirates but City So-
licitor James Timmins said
the legal route takes consid-
erable time.

Timmins is currently
reviewing records indicat-
ing that 12 companies or
individuals disconnected or
redirected their water me-
ters and failed to pay water
bills.

Timmins said he believes
he has reached a tentative
agreement with one of the
12 parties. As for the pos-
sible terms and payments,
Timmins said he prefers not
to discuss the issue until the
agreement is firm.

Once an agreement is
reached, Timmins believes

the case could serve as a
model for the remaining
11 cases and save the city
lengthy and costly legal
battles that could fail due to
statutory limitations and the
lack of firm proof.

The only certainty at this
point, according to Tim-
mins, is that these legal cas-
es face numerous obstacles,
such as proving the owners
disconnected the water and
assessing the amount of wa-
ter used.

Timmins described the
legal issues at the Oct. 5
City Council meeting at
the request of City Council
President Jay Davis who
said residents want action
on these collections.

WOULDN'T COST TAXPAYERS A DIME

McNamee suggested publi-
cizing the names of the cul-
prits and embarrassing them
into paying their bill.

Despite efforts to collect
such bills, the ratepayers'
bills are likely to keep in-
creasing, according to Mike
Coffey, Business Manager
of the Department of Public
Works (DPW).

Coffey described several
projects that evening that
will reduce the city's water
and sewage totals but the
plan is to stabilize the city's
bill, as the MWRA's charges
just keeps going up. accord-
ing to Coffey.

Coffey, also, reported the
city has erased a $3 million
deficit in the water and sew-
er funds and expects a slight
surplus this year.

According to Coffey,
Quincy 's MWRA water bill
is $9 million this year with
unaccounted water at 17%,
down from a high of 32%.

The city's sewer bill is
$17 million, up one million
dollars over last year. Cof-
fey hopes to stabilize these
charges by improvements to
the city's 230-250 miles of
water and sewer piping.

made' Business interruption
insurance, which is added to
a property insurance policy or
included in a package policy,
provides coverage for lost income
when a business mu.st vacate a
property because of disaster-
related damage covered by the
policy. With business interruption
insurance, business owners can
expect to receive payments equal
to the profits that they would hav e
received (based on the business'
financial records) had the loss
not occurred. This is one form of
insurance business ow ners cannot
afford to overlook since it is vital

One candidate for Ward 6 City Councilor

does NOT pay property taxes...

that's why it's so easy for him to vote to raise yours?

It's your city.

It's your money.

It's time for a Ward 6 Councilor

who understands that!

Who will really
stand up for you?

Maureen Glynn pays property taxes.

She understands what Ward 6 families are going through.
She will hold the line on property taxes.

Maureen Glynn will not be a rubber stamp for every budget
request. She will fight for sensible city budget management.

Maureen Glynn spol^e up for Quincy at meetings with state
officials to prevent a traffic nightmare at Neponset Bridge
and to relieve our road and bridge traffic congestion.

Maureen Glynn believes a City Councilor must respond to
residents' concerns and all requests for help.

Ward 6 needs a harder working

and more dependable Councilor

...a chanqe for the better.

Brian McNamee has NOT paid
Quincy property taxes since 1999.

(No wonder he's smiling!)

Yet^ he vMed to raiaa them on everyone else

Brian McNamee votes to increase city spending
while raising fees and taxes for residents.

Brian McNamee never bothered to show up

Brian McNamee thinks it's enough to just go to

Here's a notice of a mod-

■

ified regulation which takes
effect January 1, 2010. It
has to do with the inspection
and cleaning of commercial
hoods and ductwork. It sets
more defined requirements
on inspections and cleaning
while requiring a certificate
of competency for those per-
forming these operations.

The schedule for inspec-
tion of grease buildup has
not changed that radically. It
is as specified below:

Inspection

Frctiueacy

Monthly

1>pc or Volume of

Systems serving solid

fuel cooking operations
Systems serving high-
volume cooking op-
erations such as 24-hour Quarterly
cooking, charbroiling, or

wok cooking
Systems Serving mod-
erate-volume cooking

operations

Systems Serving low-
volume cooking opera-
tions such as churches,
day camps, seasonal
businesses or senior
centers

Semi-
annually

Annually

However, only those
holding a Type 1 certifi-
cate of competency from
the State Fire Marshal can
actually both inspect and

clean the commercial cook-
ing systems of a restaurant.
Those holding a Type 2 "re-
stricted" certificate of com-
petency, also obtained from
the State Fire Marshal, can
only conduct cleaning activ-
ities for commercial cook-
ing operations that they own
or operate. An employee can
hold a Type 2 certificate. A
Type 2 certificate cannot be
used for cleaning those fa-
cilities other than their own.
Meanwhile, those holders
cannot conduct inspections,
only cleaning of systems on
their own property. Those
holding a Type 1 certificate
can only conduct the actual
inspection.

If a person holding a cer-
tificate of competency finds
a commercial cooking oper-
ation not in compliance with
this regulation, 527CMR
1 1 , they must notify the lo-
cal fire department. The fire
department can then order
a terminafion of operations
until the condition is cor-
rected.

If you have any ques-
tions pertaining to these
upcoming changes, or wish

to apply for a certificate of
competency, you can do so
by contacting the State Fire
Marshal's Office at 978-
567-3100.

Meanwhile inspectors of
the Quincy Health Depart-
ment will be assisting us in
handing out flyers to own-
ers of restaurants to hilite
these changes. We of course
are available to answer any
questions owners might have
concerning these changes
while we can be reached in
the fire prevention office
when questions arise.

Changes in regulafions
come frequently while we
have done our best over time
to offer advanced notice of
these changes to those they
affect. We don't create these
changes, while it's essen-
fial for us to assist in their
implementation to reduce
confusion and encourage
compliance.

I've yet to see newly im-
plemented regulations fade
away, while we do our best
to encourage that they be
embraced. We thank you for
doing so with this change as
well.

Aikens Calls On City To Do
Better Job On Streets, Sidewalks

Thunday, OctoNr 15, 2009 The Quincy Sun Pa^e 1 7

Ward 1 city council can-
didate Marty Aikens has
called on the city to develop
a more efficient, systematic
approach to maintaining
roads and sidewalks.

"1 have been going door
to door for many months
now to see old friends and
neighbors and meet new
friends in seeking support
for my candidacy," Aikens
said, "and the one main is-
sue that keeps coming up is
the deplorable condition of
our roads and sidewalks.

"in some cases, as 1 have
seen first hand, it is not safe
to walk down your own
street," Aikens stated.

Recognizing that fund-
ing for municipal services is
very tight, Aikens called for
a citywide analysis of the
condition of each and every
road and sidewalk and the
development of a structured
maintenance plan to prevent
the safety hazards currently

existing in many neighbor-
hoods.

"I know funding is tight
and city government has to
be more careful than ever
with every dollar it spends,"
said Aikens.

"That is why it is even
more important to have a
needs based plan in place
to address our worst condi-
tioned roads and sidewalks
first. It is simply unaccept-
able that in some cases our
own taxpayers cannot not
drive on their road or walk
on their sidewalk without
danger."

Aikens said he has visit-
ed neighborhoods through-
out Ward 1 over the past six
months. He said has taken
the initiative to alert the city
to some of the roads and
sidewalks most in need of
repair.

In August, for example,
Aikens asked the city to
address resurfacing needs
on Rockland Road. Work

crews recently began the
much needed repair to the
street.

"I am happy that the
neighbors on Rockland
Road are getting their street
repaired, but many other
neighborhoods are in dire
need as well," said Aikens.
"A comprehensive plan will
more efficiently address
these needs in the future."

Aikens said has also con-
tacted the city to encourage
repair to Albatross Road,
Moffat Road and Rock Is-
land Road and said he has
contacted state officials re-
garding sidewalk repairs on
Quincy Shore Drive in Mer-
rymount.

Aikens stressed, howev-
er, that though these neigh-
borhoods are in desperate
need of repair, his first action
on the city council will be to
request a citywide analysis
and the development of a
strategic maintenance plan
moving forward.

A Job Well Done

On Sunday, Oct. 4, 2009, at approximately 1:20 a.m..
Officers' James Parisi and Mike Raherty were dispatched
to School Street on a report
of a family disturbance, with
a gun involved.

Officer Jay Grazioso and
Sergeant Joe Lencki also re-
sponded due to a possible
weapon being used.

Officer Parisi arrived
first and made his way to
the fifth floor, but was then
advised by the caller that the
victim took the elevator. He
also learned that the suspect
was still in the apartment.
Officer Parisi notified re-
sponding Officers, who located the victim in the lobby.
Sergeant Lencki linked up with Officer Parisi and after a
brief observation of the apartment in question, they heard
a voice inside.

The officers made entry through the unlocked door
and found a male (suspect) in the kitchen cooking a meal.
They also saw that the suspect was standing next to a steak
knife. Sergeant Lencki announced the presence of the Po-
lice and asked the suspect what was going on. The suspect
responded incoherently.

Sergeant Lencki then asked the suspect where the
gun was. The suspect said, "My accomplice has it," add-
ing that "he" was in the other room. Due to the potential
escalation of violence surrounding domestic violence in-
cidents and the statement that there was another person in
the apartment with a gun. Sergeant Lencki handcuffed the
suspect for Officer safety purposes, then proceeded to
search the rest of the apartment. There was no one else in
the apartment and no guns were found. The Officers fur-
ther questioned the suspect about the location of the gun
and he said that he had two handguns stashed in a Win-
nebago in the town of Bridgewater. Sergeant Lencki for-
warded this information to the Bridgewater Police and
they sent Officers to search for the weapons.

Now that the situation was secure, the Officers asked
the suspect about the domestic violence call. He said this
is his girlfriend's apartment and they had been dating for
two months. At about 10 p.m., they went to a local bar for
a few drinks, got take-out and then came back home. The
suspect said that his girlfriend started making negative
comments about his ex-girlfriend, which led to a heated
argument. The suspect said that his girlfriend "lost it" and
that he went "overboard" as well.

The suspect said that the yelling and insults about his
ex-girlfriend upset him to the point where he threw the
Chinese food they were eating against the wall. The
suspect had been drinking but he was calm at this time.
The living room and kitchen were a complete mess, with
food and wrappers all over the place.

A large styrofoam container of Chinese food was on
the floor after leaving marks on the wall. A footstool was
overturned and it appeared some of its wooden edging
had broken off. Various other items that appeared to be-
long on tables or nightstands were strewn around the liv-
ing room. Sergeant Lencki photographed the apartment
for evidence purposes.

Officer Parisi then interviewed the victim, first asking
if there were guns involved. The victim said no but that
the suspect did own guns and he had shown them to her.
She said that they went out to celebrate her boyfriend's
(the suspect) birthday. She said that an argument start-
ed at the bar about his ex-girifriend and how he spends
too much time with the ex and not enough time with her.
Back at the apartment, the argument continued, which es-
calated when the suspect trashed the apartment by knock-
ing things over and throwing the food around. The sus-
pect then struck the victim in the face and tried to choke
her. The victim was able to flee the apartment and had a
neighbor call the Police.

The victim said that the assault "really hurt" and
she didn't want to see him again. The suspect, a 59-year-
old Quincy resident, was arrested on the charge of Assault
and Battery (domestic violence) and transported to the sta-
tion for booking.

The victim was advised of her rights and requested
an emergency restraining order, which was issued and
served to the suspect while in custody at the station. The
Bridgewater Police Department was unable to find the
Wirmebago but did find a pop-up trailer.

The suspect refused to give consent to search the trailer,
which he co-owns with a Bridgewate/ resident. A criminal
record check of the suspect showed that his license to carry
a gun expired in 1999 and that he has many firearms viola-
tions, including guilty findings for possession of a fire-
arm, possession of a machine gun, possession of a silencer
and firearm ID card violations. The Bridgewater Police
and the Quincy Police are working together to locate the
Wirmebago in order to secure the guns. Nice Work!

Normand Grenier Promoted To President

Robert Corley Executive Director Of Neighborhood Housing Services

Neighborhood Hous-
ing Services of the South
Shore (NHS), the areas
largest non-profit commu-
nity development corpora-
tion, recently demonstrated
it is not immune to change.
However, not all change is
bad news.

After 24 years as NHS'
executive director and a
long track record of leading
the agencies initiatives to
build and renovate afford-
able homes in Quincy and
beyond, Normand Grenier
has been promoted to presi-
dent of NHS of the South
Shore. Normand 's new role
will focus on NHS' strategic
planning, fundraising and
relationship building.

Taking over on the op-
erations side Robert Corley,
director of Real Estate, has
been promoted to execu-
tive director. In addition to
the responsibilities previ-
ously held by his predeces-
sor, Corley will continue to
oversee the agency's real
estate development depart-
ment. Additionally, Citi-
zens Bank Vice President
and NHS Board President
David Kilnapp will serve as
chairperson of the Board.

"NHS continues to fine
tune its focus and respond in
accordance with the needs
of the community," Grenier
said. He cited the agency's
proactive approach to deal-
ing with the nation's recent
foreclosure crisis.

In January of 2008, prior
to the start of the crises, NHS
opened a separate Foreclo-
sure Prevention office spe-
cifically to deal with what
it anticipated as a looming
issue on the horizon. The
plan was to slowly build up
services over time. But, as
the crises quickly unfolded
it became apparent to NHS
leadership that a swift re-
sponse was required.

"We went from two fore-
closure counselors to six in
a matter of months ."Grenier
said. "We were able to indi-
vidually counsel 450 hom-
eowners last year alone."

NHS is on track to assist
over 600 homeowners by
the end of 2009.

Corley said hi is aware
of what is at stake when it
comes to affordable hous-
ing, and is no stranger in

the development arena. The community also benefit be-

agency has seen the con-
struction of over 100 new
homes under his leadership
over the past 10 years.

Corley said the future
looks bright.

"We are focused on look-
ing at the increase in fore-
closure housing stock as an
opportunity for new hom-
eowners," he said.

NHS is collaborating
with the City of Quincy to
acquire, fix and sell previ-
ously foreclosed homes to
new homeowners.

"We want to purchase
these blighted properties,
clean them up, make them
safe and get them back into
responsible homeowner
hands. It's a win-win situ-
ation for new homebuyers
and existing neighbors, who
will see their home values
stabilize," Corley said.

The City and overall

cause these newly renovat-
ed properties will be back
on the tax rolls. In order to
qualify for the program buy-
ers are required to complete
a two-part intensive first
time homebuyer seminar.

NHS will make sure the
new home buyer receives
realistic financing, "to en-
sure the local housing mar-
ket doesn't end up in such a
volatile position again."

Identifying possible

homes for the program just
got a little easier for NHS
and community develop-
ment corporations state-
wide. The agency will
be using a newly created
Massachusetts Foreclosed
Properties Initiative "first
look" program, sponsored
by CHAPA. This program
gives approved commu-
nity based organizations

Home Sellers Could Do Well Targeting First-Time Buyers

Squeaky Stairs

ueaR

^ The stairs down
to my basement
squeak like crazy when
I walk on them. What's
causing this, too much
humidity? - Harriet S.,
Wheeling, W.Va.

A^ Humidity can
• cause wooden
stairs and floorboards to
swell slightly. Dry air
can have the opposite ef-
fect. Temperature fluctua-
tions also can play a role
in increasing the amount
of squeaking from a stair
tread. Wood is fairly reac-
tive to changes in its envi-
ronment - that's part of its
strength.

Of course, that doesn't
solve the problem of annoy-
ing squeaks from the treads
as you walk up or down the
stairs. So, tackle it head-on.
Or tread-on, as it were.
A stair squeaks when the

see water damage, cracked
boards, or misaligned treads
or risers? Any damaged
boards should be replaced.
If the damage was caused
by water, find and stop the
water problem, as it can
cause other issues through-
out the basement.

If a tread appears to be in
good condition but sags vis-
ibly when someone walks
on it, replace that tread.

Now, if there's no ma-
jor damage or sagging,
the squeaks can be dealt
with fairly cheaply. Have
a helper walk up and down
the stairs while you pin-
point and mark the squeaky
areas. Then, shim the pin-
pointed spots - drive small
wooden wedges (available
at the hardware store) be-
tween the underside of the
tread and the front riser at
each spot. Have your helper
test the shimmed tread; if it
worked, use wood glue to

(NAPS)- If you're still
having trouble selling your
house in this tough market,
these five words have never
rung truer: Think first-time
home buyers.

These newbies have ac-
counted for as much as about
50 percent of all monthly
home sales of late after hav-
ing waited patiently — too
patiently, if you're a seller—
for prices to come down to
more affordable levels. (The
historical average is more
like 35 percent, according to
the National Association of
Realtors.) And if you think
all they've been scooping
up are superdi stressed fore-
closures, you're wrong.

"First-time buyers are
skeptical of buying homes

that need improvement,"
Eric Mangan, of ForSale-
ByOwner.com, has noted.

In fact, supporting that
view. The Wall Street Jour-
nal reported that nearly
half of brokers polled for
a recent Coldwell Banker
survey found that while af-
fordability was foremost on
first-timers' minds, 81 per-
cent said "move-in condi-
tions" were very important,
too.

So how do you get those
newbies to make an offer on
your house? Here are three
strategies:

Closing Costs

While a lot of thf^ sales
action has been fueled by
the federal government's
tax credit of up to $8,000

for first-time buyers, they're
still responsible for paying
the closing costs. Offer to
cover it for them before they
even think to ask.

Home Warranties

Odds are these are renters
used to calling their land-
lords to fix anything that
goes wrong in their apart-
ments. Giving them a home
warranty covering major is-
sues could go a long way to-
ward easing any of their jit-
ters about homeownership.
First Impressions

Remember how we
started out by saying how
important move-in condi-
tions are? Well, in a tough
housing market, we're talk-
ing more than just a fresh
coat of paint or neatening
rooms. In fact, experts rec-

ommend improvements
such as adding a new roof
to enhance the value of your
home. Options like GAF's
Timberline roof shingles
provide a wood-shake look
without the cost or mainte-
nance issues associated with
real wood. Plus, they have
a Class A fire lating (the
highest rating possible) and
warranties that cover high
winds. They even come in
colors like slate, weathered
wood and charcoal, which
can help boost a home's all-
important curb appeal.

Web site even features a Vir-
tual Home Remodeler tool

on design elements for the
outside of your home.

foot) rubs agamst a riser
(one of the vertical boards
that support the tread). De-
pending on the amount of
"give" between the tread
and riser, the squeak can be
minimal, or rather loud.

Inspect the entire stair-

able to walk underneath it
and check things out with a
flashlight. Is all of the wood

HOME TIP: To tempo-
rarily stop small squeaks in

Winter Skin Care: Fact Vs. Fiction

(NAPS) — Winter-proof-
ing skin against frigid tem-
peratures and bitter winds
is easier said than done. Be-
fore you know it, your com-
plexion is as pale and dreary
as the weather outside your
window.

Being aware of a few
common skin care myths is
the first step to keeping your
complexion healthy all sea-
son long.

Dr. David Colbert, found-
er and head physician of NY
Dermatology Group, lays
the most pervasive of them
to rest for once and for all.
Read on for the facts:

Myth: Blasting indoor
heat will protect skin against
moisture-sapping winds and
frosty temperatures.

Fact: While limiting out-
door exposure is one of the

smartest ways to protect
your skin, turning up the
heat inside your home or
office can be extremely dry-
ing. On the other hand, run-
ning a humidifier indoors
can actually seem warming
while also preventing skin
from feeling dry and flaky.
Remember to keep the mois-
ture level above 60 percent,
and — if you do find yourself
outdoors — cover up with
hats, scarves and gloves.

Myth: The pain and
cracking associated with
cold sore outbreaks is an un-
treatable fact of winter.

Fact: People who are
prone to cold sore breakouts
often see painful flare-ups
during winter months due
to cold and flu season, or
even stress. Dr. Colbert rec-
ommends keeping an over-

at a time at home or at work,

you owe it to yourself to keep

your neck in a neutral position

as a means of avoiding neck and

shoulder pain. Your head should

be balanced directly over your

shoulders, not leaning forward

or to oat side. To achieve the

proper seating position, set your

chair height so that both feet

rest comfortably on the ground.

You should be sitting with both

buttocks far back in the chaii;

using a small pillow to support

your lower back if necessay. No

Reduce Your Risk For Flu
With Preparation And Education

By JUDY MENARD

Infection Prevention
Manai>er, Milton Hospital

Recently, you've likely
heard a great deal of dis-
cussion about novel HINI
flu virus, formerly known
as "swine flu," which has
sparked anxiety throughout
the country. It is important
to separate the myths about
HlNl from the medical re-
ality behind the virus. What
makes this strain of flu dif-
ferent? How dangerous is
this virus? What can we
do to protect ourselves and
our families? While many
may have questions, proper
preparation and education
will help prevent you from
becoming ill with the flu.
What Is The Swine Flu
and How Is It Differnet
from the Seasonal Flu?

A novel flu virus occurs
when a new strain develops
that spreads quickly and in-
fects large numbers of peo-
ple at the same time. These
are the conditions we are ex-
periencing this season with
novel HINI. Novel HlNl
flu virus emerged early in
the spring of 2009, when it
was identified in Mexico.

Like seasonal flu, which
affects many people each
year, novel HlNl is con-
tagious, but most people
who contract the illness can
be cared for at home. The
virus causes seasonal flu-
like symptoms such as fe-
ver, lethargy, body aches,
headache, cough, and sore
throat. Novel H 1 N 1 may be
accompanied by nausea or
diarrhea.

In Massachusetts, there
have been hundreds of cases
of novel HINI -related ill-
ness. In reality, HINI is
similar in severity to the
seasonal flu strains we have
seen before. HINI hospi-
talizations and deaths so
far appear to be on par with

those for the seasonal flu.

While the primary risk
group for the seasonal flu
is age 64 and older, HlNl
has a much younger risk
group of 6 months to 24
years old. Pregnant women,
those who live with or care
for children age 6 months or
younger, and those age 25 to
64 who have immune prob-
lems or chronic illness have
been identified as high-risk
groups for H 1 N 1 .

How Do We Prepare?

Vaccine is currently
available for seasonal flu.
The best prevention for
seasonal flu is to receive
this vaccine. Check with
your primary care physician
about scheduling a vaccina-
tion. Several local clinics
are also available. For a list
of clinics, visit the Masspro
Public Flu Clinic Finder on-
line at flu.masspro.org, or
call 781-419-2580.

The novel HINI vac-
cine just been released. It
is expected to be available
in mid to late October. Plan
to receive this vaccine in
addition to the seasonal flu
vaccine, as they are differ-
ent. Like the seasonal flu
vaccine, the novel HINI
vaccine does not contain a
live virus, which means it
will not infect you with the
virus.

In addition to vaccina-
tion, remember to wash your
hands frequently during the
day, especially after going to
the bathroom or coughing,
sneezing or handling used
tissues. Cover your mouth
with a tissue when you
cough or sneeze. Throw the
tissue away right after you
use it, then wash your hands
with soap and water or use
an alcohol-based hand sani-
tizer. If you do not have a
tissue, cough or sneeze into
your sleeve, at the bend of
your elbow.

If you visit the hospital,
be prepared for precautions.
If it is suspected that you
have the flu. you and your
family or visitors may be
asked to wear a mask. The
hospital staff caring for you
will also wear a mask as
they enter your room. If you
receive treatment in the hos-
pital for non-flu-related rea-
sons, please ask your family
and friends not to visit you
if they are ill.

Milton Hospital has cre-
ated an HINI Planning
Committee to monitor the
spread of the novel HlNl,
prepare staff for a potential
influx of flu patients and
communicate with patients,
visitors and staff about the
virus. This fall, the hospi-
tal will offer educational
programs where commu-
nity members can hear up-
to-date information and ask
questions.

Finally, prepare yourself
and your family for HlNl
by putting backup plans in
place. For non-healthcare
workers, officials have sug-
gested you may return to
school or work 24 hours af-
ter your flu-related fever has
broken (healthcare workers
should wait five days after
fever has broken). If you
are home caring for sick
children or loved ones, you
may return to work any-
time, provided you have
not become ill. Make sure
that you are prepared to deal
with extended absences that
may be necessary to prevent
further spread of the virus.

If you have further ques-
tions about HINI, contact
your primary care physi-
cian or visit the Massachu-
setts Department of Public
Health HlNl information
website at www.mass.gov/
dph/swineflu/.

Presidents Improving
Each Time Out

By SEAN BRENNAN

Injuries and inexperience
have slowed the progres-
sion of the 2{K)9 Quincy
Presidents, but that hasn't
stopped the team from giv-
ing 1C)0% effort. Ihe results
(0-4 overall) may not be
where head coach Bill Rear-
don would like them to be
four games into the season,
but according the coach, his
team is very close to turning
the corner.

This effort could be seen
last l-riday night as Quincy
played its best game of the
fall at Plymouth .South High
School (4-0 overall), losing
14-0.

"I cannot tell nou how
proud 1 was ot how the tccuii
played against Pl\ mouth
South," said Keardoii. "We
gave lOO'r cttorl aiui v, e hit
them on ever\ plav. \\c v\eie
a couple ot big pla\s away
from pulling out a victor\.
We dropped some passes
and had a missed defensive
assignment on the goal line,
but that is just our lack of
experience, and we can fix
those issues.

"The outcome of the

game came down to two
plays Plymouth South made
in the second half. Besides
those two plays, we had
every chance to win that
game. "

Ihe two plays Reardon
spoke of occurred after the
halftime break. Quincy bat-
tled Pi>mouth South to a 0-0
tie after two quarters, but
Panther quarterback John
Carroll (tt)uchdown pass,
touchdown run. 15 carries
for 1 10 yards) then threw a
62-yard ID pass to De\in
Dondero to give Plymouth
South a 7-0 lead and fol-
lowed that up with a 25-\ ard
touchdown run.

The Panthers earned the
shutout \ictor\ with an in-
terception late in the tniirtii
quarter !»> >top a promising
Presidents" dri\c

"We hail a number ot
players starting liieir hrsi
varsity game, including Icit
guard Brian McDonald and
nose tackle Phil Iruong."
said Reardon " These

younger players played
great and they are all get-
ting game experience, which
should help us moving for-

ward. Sophomore tight end
Tommy O'Brien also played
a good game."

The Presidents have six
regular season games left
on their schedule and will
pla> host U) Pembroke High
School this Friday at 7 p.m

■'We get into our divi-
sional schedule this week
and Pembroke will be an-
other test tor this team."
added Reardon "II wc give
the same effort that I saw
against Plymouth South, and
it we get a couple of bodies
back from injurv wc should
be OK. Like I said, with the
same effort and it we can get
a couple of big plavs uii of-
fense and limit the big pi t>s

A possible season-saving
2-1 victory over Patriot

High School last Friday has
given the North Quincv Red
Raiders a legit opportunity
to make it back to the post-

The win. which followed
a 4-0 victory over Quincv

at .500 overall (6-6-1 re-

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
You could be caught in a tor-
rent of advice from well-mean-
ing friends and colleagues this
week. But rememt)er. Lamb,
you are at your best when you
are your own inimitable self,

TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) Expect strong efforts to get
you to accept things as they are
and not question them. But ig-
nore all that and continue your
inquiries until you're sure you
have all the answers you need.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Heavier than usual family and
workplace duties compete for
your time this week. Try to
strike a balance so that you're
not overwhelmed by either.
Pressures ease by week's end.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) It's a gocxi time for the
Moon Child to show off your
uniquely inspired approach to
the culinary skills — especially
if they're directed toward im-
pressing someone special.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
You might be happy about the
re-emergence of a long-de-
ferred deal. But don't pounce
on it quite yet. Time can change
things. Be sure the values you
looked for before are still
there.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) Try to rein in your
super-critical attitude, even if
things aren't being done quite
as you would prefer. Remem-
ber: What you say now could
create an awkward situation
later on.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Although you can
expect on-the-job cooperation
from most of your colleagues
this week, some people might

insist on knowing more about
your plans before they can ac-
cept them.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) Creating another
way to do things is commend-
able. But you could find some
resistance this week from folks
who would rather stick with the
tried-and-true than try some-
thing new.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 2 1 ) You usu-
ally can keep your aim focused
on your goal. But you might
need to make adjustments to
cope with unsteadiness factors
that could arise over the course
of the week.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) News arrives
about a projected move. Be
prepared to deal with a series of
possible shifts, including start-
ing and finishing times, and
how much the budget will actu-
ally cover.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A new relation-
ship needs time to develop.
Let things flow naturally. It
could be a different story with
a workplace situation, which
might require faster and more
focused attention.

PISCES ( February 1 9 to March
20) Accept a compliment with-
out trying to troll for any hidden
reason beyond what was said.
After all, don't you deserve to
be praised every now and then?
Of course you do.

BORN THIS WEEK: You like
to weigh all possibilities before
making a decision. You would
be a fine judge, or even be a star
in a jury room.

Acrisis and confusion is a part of living.

Each of us must face some sort of crisis

or confusion sooner or later. To face a

crisis requires courage - and courage

is a personal matter. Courage can not

SCOTT DEWARE be lease, borrowed or bought. It must

be drawn from one's self for one's self. And when courage is

shown, confusion can and often does disappear.

Ever since time began, the greatest source for courage has
been traced to a foundation on a faith. Faith creates hope.
Without faith and hope, courage is difficult to come by. In
spite of dark clouds, faith, hope and courage will always be
the means to let us see the rays of sunshine again. . .

"Life would not be worth living without faith. Faith in
God; faith in ourselves; faith in our fellow-men; we should
omit none of the three. Without faith m God, there is no hope
for the soul; without faith in self, life is a miserable failure;
without faith in each other, we should miss the sweet joys of
friendship. Keep your faith bright, let its lustre never grow
dim!" -Ida Scott Taylor

and impressive special oc-

By JOE REARDON

With three elementary
school -aged kids between
them who are allergic to
peanuts, Mimi Hester and
Kathleen Colman are vigi-
lant in the foods and snacks
they give to their children.
And with Halloween just
around the comer, the Mer-
rymount residents are ex-
tra aware of the treats their

hobgoblins collect during
the witching hours.

For several years now at
Halloween time, Hester and
Colman have stocked up
on treats that don't contain
peanuts or peanut oil. With
3.1 million kids in the U.S.
with food allergies, the two
mothers believe in offering
alternative snacks for the
children who come to their

door.

"It's growing two-fold."
said Hester of the number
of children who suffer from
food allergies in the U.S.
"It's exploding "

"People don't realize it's
life threatening," said Col-
man. "They think the kids
just get hives and that's not
the case."

Hester and Colman have

found that kids who have al-
lergies are cognizant of the
fact they have to check w hat
they are eating. Both moth-
ers have seen it up close
with their own children and
others who knock on their
door at Halloween.

Only Issue They Agree On: No Charter Schools

^ch, Phelan Clash On Issues At Candidates^ Forum

V

THOMAS KOCH

By LAURA GRIFHN

Mayor Thomas Koch
and former Mayor William
Phelan clashed on all but
one issue last week when
they shared center stage
in the elegant ballroom of
The Neighborhood Club on
Glendale Road.

Both mayoral candidates
oppose charter schools be-
cause the state taps Chapter
70 education allotments for

funding, thus reducing the
state's total payments to the
city .schools.

On all other issues, the
two candidates minced no
words as they challenged
each other by quoting sta-
tistics, history, business
and union negotiation, and
parsed Quincy's past, pres-
ent and future.

The Oct. 16 Candidates
Night sponsored by Adams

National Historic Neighbor-
hood Association (ANHN A)
served as one of the final fo-
rums for Phelan and Koch
and candidates for City
Council as they near the end
of the 20()9 campaign sea-
son and the general election
Tuesday. Nov. 3.

Quincy attorney Jack
Milgram served as modera-
tor after being introduced by
Richard Sweenev. treasurer

of ANHN A.

Sweeney and .Milgram
w elcomed the 50-60 observ-
ers who offered fairly equal
applause for both mayoral
candidates and for the six
council candidates who pre-
ceded them at the podium

What fi)llov\s are the
candidates" views on some
of the issues tackled during
the evening.

Fenway Needs A Home ^^j^th Quincy Intersection Design Unveiled

Mayor Thomas Koch
Tuesday unveiled designs
for a $3 miUion state-funded
overhaul of the Squantum
and Hancock Street inter-
section in North Quincy in
a plan to dramatically im-
prove conditions for both
drivers and pedestrians in
the area.

"This has long been one
of the worst intersections
in the City, and 1 am proud
that by working together
with Senator Michael Mor-
nssey and Representative

Friends Of Butler Pond Meet Wednesday At Central Middle School

Ward 5 Councillor Doug
Gutro scheduled a meeting
for Wednesday at 7 p.m. at
Central Middle School for
the creation of a Friends
Group for Butler Pond.

Gutro said if bylaws are
adopted at the meeting, of-
ficers could also be elected

the same night.

Butler Pond, located be-
hind Central Middle School,
is a "wonderful natural oasis
in our urban environment
and often a source of pride
to those who live in the
neighborhood," Gutro said.

"In recent years, how-

ever, invasive plants, exces- neighborhood meeting to

Friends Group for Butler
Pond.

INITIAL IMPRESSIONS

One of the best ways that
women and girls can make personal
fashion statements is to wear an
initial pendant around their necks.
Start with the first letter of your
first name, and select the precious
metal of your choice. Not only do
initials vary by font style, they can
be studded with diamonds and
other gemstones. To vary the look
and add more signature style, layer
the initials of family members and
friends. Or. use initial pendants to
spell out your name or a preferred
word. These eye-catching pieces
also lend themselves beautifully to
gift-giving for birthdays or simply
to convey sentiment. Engraved
messages and birthstones
add further personality to a

Broad Meadows Marsh Restoration Receives $3.7M

Federal Funding Will Help Restore 80 Acres
Of Salt Marsh, Grasslands, Channels And Ponds

By JOE REARDON

Telling the Broad Mead-
ow School students "years
from now when you look
back on it, remember this
day," Congressman Wil-
liam Delahunt signed and
presented Mayor Tom Koch
with a $3,760,000 check
in federal funding for the
marsh restoration project
on Monday afternoon in the
school auditorium.

The restoration, which
will restore 80 acres of salt

marsh habitat, coastal grass-
land, and saltwater channels
and ponds, is expected to
take four years and give the
area a more diverse ecosys-
tem. With it could come the
reemergence of 15-20 spe-
cies of wildlife. The city is
putting $1 million into the
project.

The construction of grav-
el walking and jogging trails
are part of the project and
estuarine fish and wildlife
will return to the area as a

result of the restoration

"You are going to school
right in the middle of a liv-
ing laboratory," Delahunt
told the students.

Part of the dredged mate-
rial from the marsh will be
used to create an upland site
containmg walkways and
benches. The restoration
will be done by the Army
Corps of Engineers and give
people greater public ac
cess.

• On Oct. 26, 1825, the

425-mile Erie Canal opens,
connecting the Great Lakes
with the Atlantic Ocean via
the Hudson River. The work
was largely done by Irish
diggers, who had to rely on
primitive tools. They were
paid $10 a month, and bar-
rels of whiskey were placed
along the canal route as en-
couragement.

• On Oct. 28, 1886, the

Statue of Liberty, a gift of
friendship from the people
of France, is dedicated in
New York Harbor by Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland. On
the pedestal was inscribed
"The New Colossus," a
sonnet by American poet
Emma Lazarus that begins
"Give me your tired, your
poor, your huddled masses
yearning to breathe free."

• On Oct. 31, 1912,

"The Musketeers of Pig
Alley," directed by D.W.
Griffith , debuts . The movie ,
which followed the career
of a gangster nicknamed
the Snapper Kid, initiated
a long Hollywood tradition
of "gangster movies."

• On Oct. 30, 1938,

Orson Welles causes a na-
tionwide panic with his
broadcast of "War of the
Worlds" - a realistic radio
dramatization of a Martian

invasion of Earth. Perhaps
as many as a million radio
listeners believed that a
real Martian invasion was
under way.

•On Oct. 29, 1948, kill

er smog continues to hover
over Donora, Pa. During a
five-day period, the smog
killed about 20 people and
made thousands more seri-

ants emitted from a zinc
smelting plant and steel
mills appeared to have been
trapped by fog close to the
ground, where they were
inhaled by local residents.

• On Oct. 27, 1954,

"Disneyland," Walt Dis-
ney's first television series,
premieres on ABC. The

other entertainment. It ran
for 34 years under various
names.

• On Nov. 1, 1969,

"Suspicious Minds," by
Elvis Presley, hits No. 1 on
the Billboard charts. The
song was Presley's first

he failed to hit the Top 10
again before his death in
1977.

A homerun for Houghs Neck.
Make that a grand slam for the city.

An army of 250 dedicated volunteers from all walks of
life joined together last Thursday to build a state-of-the-
art play area at the 4.6-acre Brill Field Park at the comer
of Sea Street and Fensmere Avenue.

It was an inspirational and profoundly proud day es-
pecially for the Brill family who were among the volun-
teers who gathered in this close-knit seaside community
in Quincy and worked hand-in-hand for more than six
hours assembling the 2.500 square-foot playground.

Brill Field Park is named after Quincy brothers Robert
and John Brill, who grew up just a short-fly ball from
the field that now bears their name. Robert was draft-
ed out of Quincy High School in 1972 as an 18-year-
old by the Milwaukee Brewers and was part of the trade
that brought Hall -of- Fame shortstop Robin Yount to the
Brewers in 1973.

Robert Brill went on to play for the St. Louis Cardi-
nals but his life was cut short by cancer in 1983.

John Brill died in a motorcycle accident on Quincy
Shore Drive along Wollaston Beach in 1982.

This new playground - along with other upgrades to
the ball field including new benches and backstop - is a
shining example of what neighbors and friends can ac-
complish in the name of civic pride.

For the Brill family, the playground project was like a
Houghs Neck group hug. More than 200 people bonding
together, showing their love and appreciation to a small
area of the city that means so much to one local family.

"Look at these people who came out today. My broth-
ers are smiling - a little frown on their face because the
Red Sox didn't do it this year - but this has taken that
away. There is one big smile on their face," said Joe Brill ,
one of the Brill brothers and a member of the Quincy
Park and Recreation Commission.

It was truly a family affair for the Brills who chipped
in and assisted with various tasks throughout the con-
struction. Joining Joe Brill were his wife, Terry; sister
Cathy Brill Al-Janibi, brother Rich, and his mom and
dad, Clem and Bob Brill.

Asked what this day means to him personally, Joe Brill
kindly replied, "This really isn't about me, this about my
brothers and my family. This is really just incredible. My
mom and dad are here, my brother and my sister, my
aunt, my wife, friends.

"There's so much kindness and love here. It's really
good for everyone. This really shows what a close-knit
community can really do. It's just awesome."

The new playground is appropriately named "The
Harold and Priscilla Little Seaside Park at Brill Field" in
memory of Harold and Priscilla Little for their long-time
dedication to the youth of Houghs Neck.

"They never stopped doing and helping the youth of
Houghs Neck," Joe Brill explained. "They both gave so
much time and money to help with the youth center, Ma-
net football, and Quincy High football, just to name a
few.

"They both would have rolled up their sleeves today to
help build the kids park today. They always gave, never
took!"

Joe Brill was also quick to point out all the other help-
ing hands that made this project a reality.

Among them:

• Volunteers from the Home Depot, the national non-
profit organization KaBoom! and the Houghs Neck
Community Council. The project was funded through a
$61,000 grant from Home Depot and KaBoom!, along
with a $7,500 contribution from the HNCC. (The Brill
Family also donated $1,500 in memory of Robert and
John.)

• Houghs Neck Congregational Church, Office of
Norfolk County Sheriff Michael Bellotti, Stop & Shop,
Fratelli's, Hannaford's, Roxie's, and Durikin Donuts who
all donated food to this cause.

• Houghs Neck Garden Club provided the landscaping
and greenery near^the playground.

Organizers also praised the support of Mayor Tom
Koch and Park and Recreation Member Jack Nigro who
were receptive to the idea of building a new playground
at Brill Field.

"It was one team effort and this is what Houghs Neck
is all about. Houghs Neck is just a great community. And

Park. From left are: Cathy Brill Al-Janibi, Clem Brill, Rich

the city of Quincy is so wonderful, too," Joe Brill added.

Of course a huge assist came from the playground's
designers: about 30 local kids who were asked to make
drawings of their ideal playground. The kids from the
neighborhood - ranging in age from 4 to 10 - presented
their designs and concepts to about 20 adults.

"They definitely wanted swings,
monkey bars, and really cool shdes. We
picked the equipment based on what
the kids wanted," said HNCC President
Brian Larouche.

And the kids seemed quite pleased
by the end result: many of them held
colorful, homemade "thank you" signs
after the project was complete.

The two-day project began last Tues-
day when the site was cleared and prepped for Thurs-
day's construction. After the playground materials were
delivered, volunteers fanned out around the site raking
mulch and wood chips, bolting fixtures, carrying tim-
bers, planting flowers, painting hop-scotch numbers and
sweeping sidewalks.

Six hours later, around 2:30 p.m., the project was fin-
ished as smiling-but-some-sore volunteers congratulated
one another for a hard but satisfying day's work.

It was a total team effort. When it was all over, there
were handshakes and pats on the back, and a few tears
of joy.

Larouche said he was moved by the overwhelming
support the project received.

"We put out the call for help and we had to stop. We
had too many people who wanted to be here. That just
goes to show you what Houghs Neck's like. We were
short 10 wheel barrows - within a day we had 30. We
are very fortunate to have such a close-knit group down
here."

The playground opened Monday. A grand opening
will be held Sunday, Oct. 25 during the HNCC's annual
Harvest Fest from 2 to 4 p.m. The festival will also fea-
ture hay rides, face paintings and other games and activi-
ties for children.

That's really what this park is all about: fun.

And it's been that way for years. Once home to a roller
skating rink and the Great Hill School, the park now en-
compasses an in-line rink, half- basketball court, soccer
field and baseball field near the new playground.

The project rekindled fond memories from those who
spent much of their youth here.

"We used to steal my mother's flour to put (base) lines
down on the ball field," Joe Brill recalled. "We even made
our own little six-hole golf course here. We used to col-
lect money from all the kids and have a little tournament
here - knowing we were going to win it anyway.

"1 was very fortunate to grow up here in Houghs
Neck," Joe Brill said. "We did everything here. It was a
lot of fun."

And now - thanks to a community-wide effort - that
tradition continues at the new Hal and Priscilla Seaside
Park at Brill Field Park Playground.

Scenes From Yesterday

^t^iii^

THIS IS A 1920 postcard showing the parsonage of the
Swedish Lutheran Church on Cottage Street in Quincy
Center. The church, now known as the Faith Lutheran
Church, was across the square on Granite Street. Cot-
tage Street, which was mostly residential houses, ran
from Cottage Avenue to Revere Road through what is
now the Hancock parking lot. The parsonage and all the
surrounding buildings were taken by eminent domain
tand demolished when the city expanded its off-street

parking in 1953. For almost 40 years the city has been
trying to get that large underutilized parcel of land
back on the tax rolls, but the lack of roadway access has
kept developers from getting serious about it. Now , with
construction of the final links of the Concourse under-
way, along with the new downtown development plans,
perhaps that goal will finally be achieved. To contact

Menino Should Act Promptly, Responsibly On Ferry Service

Recently, U.S. Transpor-
tation Secretary Ray La-
Hood has announced $42
million in grants to improve
ferry services and build new
docks and facilities in 15
states. As a Quincy legis-
lator, I am very encouraged
that one of Secretary La-
Hood's priorities is the Long
Island Bridge in Squantum.

The fiscal 2009 Omnibus
Appropriations approved
and authorized by the Con-
gress, and signed into law
by President Obama, is a
great step in the right direc-

tion.

Working together, and, in
particular, with the support
of Senator Kerry and the
late Senator Kennedy, the
Transportation Department
has funded the Long Island
Ferry Dock Construction
and has secured over Nine-
Hundred and Fifty Thou-
sand Dollars ($950,000)
to fund a ferry boat project
that will provide critical ac-
cess to areas that lack other
means of transportation.

The Long Island Bridge
continues to be a high-risk,

public safety hazard to all
social facilities, employees,
and staff who utilize the
road, as well as a risk to the
commuters and boaters who
travel under it. It is more
feasible, in the interest of
public safety and econom-
ic well-being, that Mayor
Menino and the City of Bos-
ton act promptly, responsi-
bly, and aggressively in pur-
suing the ferry service now
that the funding is available
and, eventually, replace the
use of Long Island Bridge.
The Boston Harbor Is-

lands, in particular Moon
and Long Island, should and
ought to be preserved for the
historic, economic, recre-
ational, and environmental

Misconceptions About Putting Students Into Union Jobs

In response to Karl Roos'
letter of October 8, 1 want to
clear up some misconcep-
tions about the possibility of
putfing students into union
jobs.

As the Director of the
Career and Technical Edu-
cation programs in Quincy
Public Schools for over
eight years, I was lucky
enough to be a contributor
to the architectural and pro-
gram specifications for the
vocational programs at the
new Quincy High School . 1
saw this project as an excit-
ing opportunity for our stu-
dents. One ofthe first things
I did was to meet with the
representatives from the ar-
chitectural firm of Symmes,

Manni, and McKee Associ-
ates (SMMA), and asked
them to find a way to ensure
that the students had access
to the site through intern-
ships, after school and sum-
mer employment, and field
trips.

Although SMMA could
have not been more profes-
sional or responsive, they
were very clear that students
could not be employed in
the construction of the new
building. Their explanation
had to do with union rules.
They did, however, com-
mit to sharing the plans and
progress with the construc-
tion trade students and the
engineering students at the
high school .

I have heard from many
of my former colleagues in
the technical programs at
Quincy High School that the
experience ofthe living work
site next door has been very
educafional. Their students
have been allowed access to
the site and have interacted
with the many skilled union
workers as well as the engi-
neers and architects.

As the Director of Career
and Technical Education for
the City of Boston, 1 have
come to realize that the only
way to have construction
projects truly contribute to
the technical programs is to
get to the general contrac-
tors. Large contractors can

and do sponsor apprentice-
ships into the trade unions.
We need our city officials to
consider a Memorandum of
Agreement which would en-
courage the contractors on
large construction projects
in our city to partner with
our schools.

We need their support to
get our vcxrational students
into the unions by asking
them to sponsor our well
prepared graduates This has
been done successfully in
other communities and can
be done here in Quincy.

rrSY BUSY SPIDER VEINS

Spider veins can occur on professional advice for a podi

the feet. They are colored and
thread-like in appearance.
Although they do not tend to
hurt, they can worsen and
bleed. They are caused by a
backup of blood in the veins.
If the valves in the vein weak-
en, the blood leaks back and
pools. Spider veins are mini
versions of varicose veins.
They have the appearance
of tree branches, and they
appear closer to the surface
than varicose veins. Hormonal
changes, genetics, and expo-
sure to the sun can cause spi-
der veins the feet. Should the
spider veins cause discomfort,
socks specifically designed to
offer relief may be worn. Spi-
der veins can be covered with
special makeup.

Since life can be compli-
cated enough without having
to contend with foot problems,

atrist who has been specially
trained to care for feet is your
best defense. We're on your
side no matter what is causing
problems with your feet. From

ties to sports injuries, we feel

"It is no secret that to-
day's high cost of health in-
surance remains one of the
most pressing issues facing
any Massachusetts small
business owner," said Jon
Hurst, president of the Re-
tailers Association of Mas-
sachusetts.

"We are very please to
hear Governor Patrick's
announcement today of a

packaged of initiatives that
seeks to address the issues
surrounding small busi-
ness health insurance costs.
These are welcome and
important steps on the path
to achieving premium cost
fairness in the health insur-
ance marketplace for small
business owners and we
look forward to continuing
to work with the Governor
and the Legislature toward
that goal."

Hurst went on to say that
the cost of health care is a
huge concern for the small
business owner and believes
the four initiatives will put
the problem under a micro-
scope. "They're struggling
with cost and the cost we
hear over and over is health
care. This (proposal) is go-
ing to show the need for
small business health insur-
ance help."

Linda Fiore, the chair-
man of the Joint Committee
of Small Business has trav-
eled throughout the state
listening to concerns of the
small business owner. And
although their concerns are
unique, there has been a
"constant and clear plea" for
affordable health care.

Ward 4 City Councilor
Jay Davis praised the gover-
nor's proposal. "It's a great
opportunity for small busi-
ness to take advantage of
health care," he said.

Fontbonne Academy Congratulates
Mary Callahan '09

Mary Callahan is attending Loyola University of Chicago this fall with
plans to focus her studies on International Studies and Modern Lan-
guages. Highlights of her Fontbonne career include being on the vol-
leyball and lacrosse teams, being a member of the student council and
peer ministry, the National Honor Society and the Spanish National
Honor Society. She was also a math and science tutor and a member
of Fontbonne Academy's drama troupe, the Good Fountain Players.

"My four years at Fontbonne Academy helped me evolve from a timid
and inexperienced eighth grader into a confident leader with a global
perspective. Fontbonne provided me with a worldly view through
service, our social justice project, international students, and its di-
verse community. While at Fontbonne, I was challenged academically
and also developed important life skills. I have learned the importance
of integrity in- and outside of the classroom. The administration,
teachers, and students at Fontbonne Academy have guided me and
helped me become a responsible, independent, and intelligent young
woman."

^Recycling Fairies' Visit Quincy

in an attempt to increase
recycling efforts the City of
Quincy is randomly reward-
ing residents who recycle
above and beyond with
brand new 32-gallon Single
Stream recycling barrels.

lorthe last several weeks
a team of recycling "faines"
has fanned-out across the
city looking for overflow-
ing recycling containers and
leaving behind brand new
recycling barrels stuffed
w ith goodies and helpful in-
formation.

Single Stream recycling
requires larger containers
because there is no separa-
tion of paper and cardboard
from plastic, glass and met-
al. The larger barrel also
encourages residents to re-
cycle larger items.

However, city officials

stated the estimated mil-
lion-dollai outlay to sup-
ply every household with a
large recycling container is
way beyond the means of
today's tight fiscal budgets.

Instead, the City offers a
Single Stream "starter kit"
which includes recycling
stickers, how-to instruc-
tions and a coupon worth $5
off the purchase of a 32-gal-
lon recycling barrel at Curry
Hardware, 370 Copeland
St., and Danny's Hardware,
53 Billings Rd. These bar-
rels normally cost between
$15 and $20.

According to city of-
ficials, Quincy 's trash is
weighed and a bill is paid
for its disposal through
property ta.x bills. The city
budgets nearly $3 million
dollars a year to dispose of

trash.

Last year, the city saved
over $2(K),(M){) by divert-
ing 2,000 tons of trash into
Single Stream recycling. In
addition, recycling tonnage
increased 7(K1 tons earning
the City another $100,000
in revenue.

Mayor Thomas P. Koch
said, "Phis money is tun-
neled back into public
safety, education, recreation
and the infrastructure to im-
prove the overall quality of
life in Quincy."

For information about
trash and recycling in Quin-
cy go to the City's new web-
site at w\\jA:.qiiincynia,j^.()y.

Residents can also call
the recycle desk at 617-376-
1953 or e-mail recylequin-
cy(3 quincyma.gov.

began a career in the Oil industry back in
the early I94()"s. as a serviceman for Quin-
cy Coal & Oil. doing furnace repairs and
coal-to-oil furnace conversions. Bv the mid
I95()'s he was supporting a family of five
children and had started his own business,
called Reggies Oil Burner Service.

.k)e, Armando's third son, began to learn
the trade from his father in 1970 and worked
by his side for nearly a decade, in 1979, Joe
purchased the delivery side of the business,
which had been established in 1965, from
his older brother Paul and merged it with his
father's burner repair service, marking the
start of Reggie's Oil Company, Inc. To this

should still be OK to drive
on. And remember, tires don't
wear evenly so repeat the test
on several spots on the tire.

Keep the manufacturer's
advice in mind: Most manu-
facturers will give you an
estimated amount of miles
their tires will be safe for.
Be sure you know what their
recommendation is for your
tires and vehicle, and keep a
close eye on tire tread depth
as you approach that mileage
limit. If you're buying a used
vehicle, be sure to have your
mechanic check the tire treads
and hnd out from the current
owner when he or she last re-
placed the tires.

Well-cared-for tires are
safer tires: The quality and
condition of your vehicle's
tires directly affect your
safety on the road. Visually
inspect tires at least once a
month, looking for excessive
or uneven tread wear, cracks
or bulges on the sidewalls or
tread, tread separation, and
signs of punctures, or nails,
screws, gjass or stones im-
bedded in the treads.

Check for proper inflation
at least once a month. Under-
inflation is the leading cause
of tire failure, and can impact
how your car handles and its
fuel efficiency. Refer to your
vehicle's owner's manual
or the sticker on the inside
of your car's door jamb for
proper tire pressure.

Exceeding passenger and
cargo load ranges is the sec-
ond leading cause of tire fail-
ure. Check the code on your
tire's sidewall and your own-
er's manual for the maximum
load range for your vehicle
and don't exceed that range.

Finally, replacing all four
tires at the same time ensures
maximum safety, perfor-
mance and efficiency.

Marty Aikens ♦ Ward One Councilor *A Voice for OUR Priorities

Dear Ward One Neighbor,

Ward One in Quincy is a very special place. I have had the privilege
of growing up here, buying my first house here and getting involved
in our wonderful comnnunity with so many of our neighbors.

I am running to be your next Ward One Councilor because I think we
need a fresh voice and someone with new ideas who understands
the needs of our residents. I share your concern that the City of
Quincy should be doing a much better job for its citizens and
instead of raising our taxes, our elected representatives should
instead be tightening the belt of city government.

I will be an effective voice for your priorities and I respectfully ask for
your vote on November 3.

LITTLE THINGS MEAN A LOT

Over the past six years Ward 4 Councilor Jay Davis has received and responded to thousands of
constituent concerns, concerns that may seem like little things to some, but are very big things to
the people they affect. Whether it has been a handicapped parking space on Water Street, a street
light on West Street, a pot hole on Harris Street, a sidewalk on Verchild Street, a crosswalk on
Independence Avenue, a stop sign on Council Street, snow plowing on Town Hill Street, a street
sign on Argonne Street, rubbish collection on Wesson Avenue or a water main break on Grove
Street, Jay has been there getting the little things done for the residents of Ward 4.

Thousands of residents across Ward 4 can attest to one thing:
Jay Davis comes up big when it comes to the little things.

Six Candidates Support
Preservation Projects

Koch Announces Labor Endorsements

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Six City Council candi-
dates pledged their support
of preservation projects as
well as efforts to strengthen
the city's neighborhoods
and open space plans at last
week's Candidates Night at
the Neighborhood Club on
Glendale Road.

Speakers called citizens'
persistence a key element in
protecting neighborhoods
against blight and deteriora-
tion and encouraged the 50-
60 observers to repeatedly
contact city officials and
board members when prob-
lems persist.

"We depend on you folks
to contact us," said Ward 2
Councillor Dan Raymondi
who noted, "Sometimes it
requires court intervention."

Councillor John Keenan
described efforts in one
area where police received
200 calls in a year on the
one house that blighted the
neighborhood due to issues
of drug use and neglect.

"Be patient; be persis-
tent," Keenan stressed as did
Councillor Mike McFarland
who praised the work of the
city's Code Enforcement of-
ficer.

"It's always the neigh-
bors who tell us what's
going on," said Maureen
Glynn, a candidate for the
Ward 6 council seat.

All the candidates en-
courage growth in Quincy
Center, the shipyard and
Crown Colony but support
strong measures to protect
neighborhoods.

Keenan and McFarland,
unopposed candidates for
City Councillor At Large,
participated in the Oct. 13
forum sponsored by The
Adams National Historic
Neighborhood Association
(ANHNA).

Koch, Phelan Clash On The Issues At Candidates' Forum

Cont 'd From Foqe I

Charter Schools

"Folks who want to get
into the charter school busi-
ness apply directly to the
state. We have no oversight,"
said Koch as he outlined his
objections to charter schools
and St cssed that the state is
the sole authority on charter
schools.

Koch estimated the
city's potential loss with
a proposed charter school
at $7(K),(XK) plus. "If the
state wants to fund charter
schools beyond what they're
funding our public schools,
that's a whole different is-
sue."

Phelan had a similar es-
timate on a per pupil basis
and said that funds can't
be diverted from the public
schools unless "you want to
see neighborhoods go down.
When schools disintegrate,
so do the neighborhoods."
Finances
Both Koch and Phelan
charged, throughout the de-
bate, that their opponent was
responsible for the highest
tax increase in the city's his-
tory.

"I see a tax increase that
was crippling at a time when
most citizens. . . .can least af-
ford it," said Phelan of the
2008 tax rate.

Koch charged that in
2004, "Year two (of the
Phelan administration) had
the highest single average
tax increase on the single
family home in the city's
history."

Koch blamed Phelan for
the 2CK)8 tax hike. "Last
year's increase was really
due to the millions of dol-
lars of debts that you left
behind."

He later stated, "When
I took office, there were
millions of dollars worth
of bills that weren't paid,
contracts that were signed,
not funded; contracts with
employees signed, but not
funded in the millions of
dollars."

Koch contended that
the Honeywell energy sav-
ings contract promoted and
signed by Phelan "is an out-
rageous program under in-
vestigation by the inspector
general's office that this city
is going to be paying for, for
a long time."

As for Honeywell's work
in city buildings, Koch de-
clared the actual project
should have cost $15 mil-
lion instead of $32 million
which taxpayers will pay,
plus $16 million in financ-
ing and another $18 million
in maintenance contracts.

Phelan charged that
Koch "squandered" city as-
sets and the surplus he left
behind. "1 see a city being
mismanaged. 1 know Tom
Koch talks about the terrible
situaHon that he inherited
when he came into office.
I'm here to tell you that is
simply not true.

"Tom Koch raised taxes
twice as much as I did in
my six years in office," said
Phelan. charging that the
Koch's tax increase was
"twice as much as 3 1 out of
the 33 (comparable) cities"
in the state.

Phelan cited the positive
bond rating given Quincy
in 2007 during his term.
He also said when he took
office the state would not
certify the city's tax rate and
saved funds when he cut the
city payroll by eliminating
100 jobs.

Koch claimed millions
saved through progress dur-
ing his 21 -month adminis-
tration, such as $ 1 million in
savings through a tri-town
trash program, wage defer-
rals, and $10 million in sav-
ings from employee health
insurance costs.

"We were successful
in joining the G.I.C. state
health program. That's a
turnaround of about $10

Leadership. I have consistently advocated for Quincy Public School students by
holding leadership positions in various parent organizations, identifying problems,
proposing solutions and getting results. This includes working extensively with the
Citywide Parents' Council to improve the quality of education for our students citywide.

Cominitinent. For fourteen years I have demonstrated an unwavering commitment
to the Parent Teacher Organizations of the schools my children attended (Beechwood
Knoll, Central Middle School and North Quincy High School). In addition, I served on
the School Improvement Councils with administrators at each school to produce school
improvement plans.

million," said Koch.

"His whole campaign is
based on (statements that) 1
left him with a mess," Phel-
an said, adding, "It just isn't
true."

"Remember the teachers'
strike when Mayor Koch
was shaking hands with the
pickets. He negotiated one
major contract and he gave
out a 13% raise in the first
year of the contract," said
Phelan.

"1 negotiated contracts
with the bulk of the employ-
ees. We negotiated a 13%
increase over four years
with employees contribut-
ing more."

Koch countered that solid
companies are now moving
into the shipyard, that there
are potential future jobs for
residents. He charged that
"the finances of the city
deteriorated in the last year
(of Phelan 's term). There's
a new spirit of coopera-
tion, getting things done by
working together."

"The Honeywell program
is an outrage. You are pay-
ing every day in your taxes.
I inherited a police depart-
ment that was in complete
disarray," Koch said.
Schools
Both Koch and Phelan
outlined the essential im-

portance of schools in the
life of every city and raised
concerns about the future of
education under their oppo-
nent.

"People don't want to
live in a community if the
schools are not succeeding,"
Koch said while Phelan
noted, "There's one surefire
way to see a city go down
and that's not to fund the
school system."

Koch charged that, as
mayor, Phelan lost millions
of dollars in school building
funds by losing the state's
90% school building reim-
bursement.

Phelan maintained that
Koch's cuts to the school
budget endanger the system.
When he was mayor, Phelan
said he ensured the school
department was funded as
the highest in the city. Now,
he said, "It's almost been
the lowest."

"The schools in Quincy
are succeeding and they
will continue to succeed,"
said Koch, claiming that the
city's class size numbers
"are still among the best in
the state."

All city departments had
to endure cuts, according to
Koch, who maintained re-
peatedly that Phelan lost the
state's reimbursement for

new school building.

"Milton got three schools
built before we got a shovel
in the ground," said Koch
who charged that the cost of
the high school is $127 mil-
lion and "We're still only
getting $72 million."

"That school is costing
us $46 million more than
it should have," said Koch,
adding, "the next generation
of Quincy folk will be pay-
ing that bill"

In response, Phelan out-
lined the problems with the
original high school site
under former Mayor James
Sheets and noted Koch was
in his administration.

Phelan said that, due
to his administration, "We
have a high school we (^an
be proud of and it's not on a
toxic site."

Phelan also said that
Quincy was "never eligible
for 90% reimbursement. 1
hope people aren't fooled
by it."

As for future school
building, Phelan also chal-
lenged Koch's decision to
select the former Winfield
House location for a new
Central Middle School
without having the costs es-
timates in hand.

The Phelan Facts

Former Mayor Phelan 's $66 Million No-Bid Honeywell
Deal Is Under Investigation by the State Inspector General

Phelan Says. .
"I was in office for 6 of the 18 months

of construction"

Quincy Environmental Network Debate, 10/14/09

THE FACTS

These are the binders for
37 projects Phelan
oversaw, approved and
paid Honeywell for in
2007.

That's 99 percent of the
entire project.

46 Harbor View St. was his
address. "1 spend time there
(Fitchburg)," he said. "Due
to my work schedule I reside
at my home in Quincy. I do
m tne city, wnat spend time in Fitchburgh,
wasn't clear was his Quincy absolutely, and 1 do spend

time in Quincy on Harbor
View Street."

Like Bowes, Clasby
produced several pieces of
documentation including
his license, car registration
and automobile insurance
invoices with the Harbor
View St., address. Clasby
also told the board that he
has no affiliation with any
groups in Fitchburg.

He too believed his char-
acter was being challenged.
"I feel like this is a question
of my character," Clasby
said.

Wynn pointed out that he
wasn't asked for identifica-
tion when he registered to
vote and didn't have proper
notice about the hearing. "I
think this all could have been
avoided," he said. "I got my
notice yesterday. I should
have had two (days)."

Buonaugurio was not
present at the hearing, but
there was ample documen-
tation presented that he
was not a Quincy resident.
Among the documentation
with the 279 Spring St., ad-
dress were a declaration of
homestead dated April 22,
2009 and a deed dated Nov.
30, 2000.

Swanson said he didn't
believe the failure of
Buonaugurio to notify the
registrar's office of his ad-
dress change was done in
malice.

Collins said he has been

My priorities have always been my family and the families of Quincy

This year, I have children at every level of the public schools. I know
the pressures families face, and this understanding has shaped my
perspective on the School Committee. My opinion has always been
"a city is known by the schools it keeps, Great schools, attract great
people!" I have never been afraid to ask questions of any administration/
and I never will. Durmg most of my term we have made great strides,
increasing funding for needed programs and updating outdated
buildings But recently, due to the economy, we have had to cut
programs. With your support, I believe we can enhance the quality

know they're allergic "

Among the candies and
snacks the mothers give
out are small bags of Oreo
cookies, Hershey kisses.
Goldfish, pretzels. Skittles
and Gummy treats. "We
don't have a separate con-
tainer (of candy) at Hallow-
een because we make sure
everything's safe."

Hester and Colman
have found parents in their
neighborhoods to be recep-
tive to the idea of giving
out peanut-free candy and
snacks. They believe in the
importance of getting the
awareness out to those fami-
lies who don't have children
with food allergies.

"Most people are really
good about it," said Colman.
"It's just as easy to pick up
a bag of Goldfish as it is
candy.

"We want to raise aware-
ness of allergies."

Dr. Michael Young of
South Shore Allergy in
Weymouth, one of the lead-
ing authorities on allergies
in the country, said parents
are acutely aware of what
their children are eating dur-
ing Halloween.

"Most parents are even
more wary this time of

Save Gas and Money
Shop Locally

year," he said. "They're
usually pretty careful. We
try to educate the kids early
on. The children's friends
are very supportive."

Dr. Young, who wrote
the book "Peanut Allergy
Answer Book," said that
people with allergies should
be especially careful at
Thanksgiving, Christmas
and New Year's. "People are
eating out and they're not in
control of the food prepara-
tion," he said.

One Halloween a couple
of years back, Hester and
her kids. 6-year-old Ryan
and 7-year-old Sydney went
to a home and the parents
had Reese's Peanut Butter
Cups for the trick or treat-
ers. When they learned
the kids were allergic, the
parents came up with king-
sized Hershey Bars for Ryan
and Sydney.

The kids are as vigilant
as their mothers.

"I have to be sure to read
the label," said Sydney. "If it
doesn't have a label, I don't
eat it."

Eight-year-old Kaitlin
Colman knows there are
tasty alternatives to peanut
treats. "I like chocolate and
I love gum," said the cute
blond with the infectious
smile. "But I don't eat pea-
nut buttercups."

Ashley Colman isn't al-

lergic to peanuts, but stays
away from foods with pea-
nut products just the same.
And she keeps close tabs on
her friends. "I watch what
they're eating," she said.

And Ryan simply has
no problem cutting to the
chase. "I ask if (the candy)
has any peanuts," he said. "I
make sure I stay away from
them."

Symptoms of an allergic
reaction can be a tingling
sensation in the mouth,
swelling of the tongue and
the throat, difficulty breath-
ing, hives, vomiting, ab-
dominal cramps, diarrhea,
drop in blood pressure, loss
of consciousness and some-
times death. The symptoms
usually appear minutes to
two hours after the person
has eaten the food he or she
is allergic to.

There are no cures for
allergies, but children can
outgrow several when they
are older. Peanut, tree nuts,
fish and shellfish, however,
are often considered to be
lifelong allergies.

The strict avoidance of
the allergy-causing food is
the only way to avoid a re-
action. Reading ingredient
labels for all foods is the key
to avoiding a reaction. Indi-
viduals with food allergies
should not east a food if the
product is not labeled.

children ages 3-9. Each year
approximately 290 children
ages 3-9 die as a result of
fire in the U.S.

This project is made pos-

"Fire departments and
other safety educators reach
out to millions of children
each year to help them learn
how to keep themselves
safe from fire and other haz-
ards," said Judy Comoletti,
NFPA's division manager of
public education.

"As safety educators, it
is vital that we understand
and continually review what
types of messaging have the
greatest impact on children
when encouraging them
to practice safe behaviors.
Resources being developed
through this project will
guide us and others interest-
ed in ways to best reach this
young audience and their
families with life-saving in-
formation."

Through this project,
the two organizations are
seeking to increase safety
behaviors among children.
Children will be asked to
observe video vignettes that
vary how safety content
is communicated and how
safety messages are framed.
Researchers will evalu-
ate what they learn, which
types of messages have the
most impact on children and
how their parents react to
the program.

"The outcomes of this
study will contribute to un-
derstanding how children
and their parents react to
safety messages." said An-
drea Gielen. ScM, ScD, di-
rector of the Johns Hopkins
Center for Injury Research
and Policy.

"Despite the fact that in-

juries are the number one
cause of death for children
in the U.S., litde is currently
known about how best to
reach them with safety in-
formation," Gielen added.

To ensure the outcomes
of this study will impact fu-
ture health education work,
a guide for developing edu-
cational materials will be
developed to help others in-
volved in fire and life safety
programs.

The guide will be avail-
able on NFPA's Web site for
use by any fire department
or other fire safety organiza-
tion. The project is slated to
be completed by July 2010.

The Johns Hopkins
Center for Injury Research
and Policy is comprised of
a team of multi-disciplinary
scientists, teachers and
practitioners committed to
reducing the burden of inju-
ries through research, edu-
cation, and service. Using
a public health approach in
which science informs prac-
tice, and practice questions
science, the Center has been
able to save lives and reduce
the burden of injuries. Visit

NFPA has been a world-
wide leader in providing
fire, electrical, building,
and life safety to the public
since 1896. The mission of
the international nonprofit
organization is to reduce the
worldwide burden of fire and
other hazards on the quality
of life by providing and ad-
vocating consensus codes

cleaning is one of those
maintenance items that is

Preventive measures in-

oak, for example - produce
less creosote, a sticky, high-

If you maintain the roof
and gutters yourself, visu-
ally inspect the outside of
your chimney during the
maintenance task. Note any
damage to the bricks, mor-
tar or metal flashing around
the chimney.

Anything beyond that, a
professional chimney sweep
should come in. Once a
year, prior to the onset of
cold weather, schedule a
chimney cleaning service.
The professional should in-
spect the inside of the chim-
ney, the chimney stack, the
fireplace, flue and all asso-
ciated parts. He or she must

of necessary repairs and

A Job Well Done

On SuiKiax.Oci I 1 .at approximately 12: 15 p ni .Otii
ccr Aimcinanc Rcill> v\as dispatched to 227 Sea Street on
a report ot "unknown trou
hie"

I'pon arrival, the olticer
identiHed the unknown prob-
lem as a ear accident. .After
determining that there were
no injuries. Ofhcer Reilly
interviewed the driver of a
short bus. with eight elderly
occupants, who stated that
another vehicle struck the
bus.

The bus driver said she
approached the other driver

and after making sure she was uninjured, attempted to ex-
change papers. The other driver responded, "What for?"
The bus driver again asked the other driver for her infor-
mation and she responded, "Why are you making such
a big deal of this, let's just get out here."

The bus driver realized that the other driver was not
going to provide her accident information, so she asked a
passerby to contact the Police, fearing that the other driv-
er would leave the scene. Officer Reilly then approached
the two females standing next to the damaged vehicle and
asked who was driving.

One of the females identified herself as the driver and
said. "I don't know why she is making such a big deal of
this - 1 could have been killed." When asked for her driv-
er's license and registrafion. she handed the officer the
registration for the vehicle but stated. "I don't have my
license on me right now." The driver said she did have a
license and it was active, so the next step was to conduct
a license check.

Officer Reilly asked the driver for her date of birth and
the driver paused, looked quizzically at her friend and
said, "What is it again?" She was again asked for her
date of birth and she replied, it's October 7. 1987 - wait
let me think - yeah that's it."

With the information provided by the driver. Officer
Reilly. knowing the likelihood there was a problem with
her license status, contacted Quincy Police Communica-
tions Teletype Operator Sheehan to conduct a license and
warrant status check. Operator Sheehan informed the Of-
ficer there was no license for the information given.

The officer asked the driver for the spelling of her
name and for her date of birth again, to which she replied.
"October 7. 1997." Officer Reilly informed the driver
that based on this information, she would be 12 years old.
The driver hastily attempted to correct herself, by saying,
"oh yeah- wait, it can't be that."

She then gave the Officer the date of birth of October
7. 1984, but again Teletype Operator Sheehan determined
that there was no such person.

Officer Reilly knew that the driver was intentionally
giving false information, but she allowed this to continue
as she strengthened her case of misleading a Police Of-
ficer.

The officer advised the driver of the pending charge
and advised her to provide her true name and date of
birth. The driver then sighed and said her name and
date of birth, which were completely different than what
was given in prior statements.

At this Ume, Officer Reilly advised the driver, a 27 year
old Quincy resident, that she was under arrest for "Mis-
leading a Police Officer." Teletype Operator Sheehan was
given the updated information and a few minutes later it
was determined that the driver's license was suspended
and she was subsequently charged.

Presidents Earn First Win, 27-26

Quincy Comes From Behind
To Defeat Pembroke

Sun Sports

yyyyy'yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy'yyy^.-^,'^^^^^ -^y -^y ^ -

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Presidents
won their first game of the
season following a ct)me-
from-behind 27-26 victory
over Pembroke High School
last Friday night at Veter-
ans Memorial Stadium. The
Presidents, a team loaded
with underclassmen and a
handful of seniors, manned
up when it counted most,
outscoring the Titians 21-8
in the second-half and com-
ing up with big play after
big play.

Quincy (1-4 overall, 1-0
in Patriot League) finished
the contest with a lO-play
drive, a possession that end-
ed with senior quarterback
Lance Peterson scoring on
a one-yard touchdown run.
Junior Luke McDonough
kicked a successful point
after attempt (PAT) for the
game-winning point.

The winning drive was
set up by a fumble recovery
from junior Brian McDon-
ald. McDonald recovered
the bail at the Quincy 45-
yard line, and the big turn-
over came after Pembroke
had taken a 26-20 lead with
7:25 left in the game. Senior
Ngozi Aguguo had a spec-
tacular 26-yard reception on
the drive.

"Wc scored first but then
Pembroke went up IS-6 at
halftime." said Quincy head
coach Bill Reardon. "It was
a little concerning being

down like that, but 1 have to
give my team all the credit.
They came out in the sec-
ond half with tons of energy.
They fought hard on every
play. We limited the mis-
takes and made the plays we
had to make and it worked
out.

"On that last drive we
got contributions from a lot
of players. The young guys
stepped up and some of
our seniors like Ngozi and
Lance came up big when
we needed them to. It was a
great win."

Pembroke (1-5 overall.
0-1 in Patriot League) had
one last opportunity to win
the game but sophomore
Reggie Cesar blocked a po-
tential 35-yard game-decid-
ing field goal.

"(Pembroke) came down
the field and had a chance to
kick the winning field goal,
but they had had trouble all
game making kicks. Cesar
knocked it down and that
was that." added Reardon.
"The biggest play of that
final drive was a forced
fumble by Kenny Nguyen
that pushed Pembroke back
ten yards and made that kick
tougher than it could have
been."

Quincy had lost its first
four games of the season,
but tu () weeks ago, the team
plaved well in a 14-0 loss
to Pljniouth South High
School and Reardon and his

staff could feel the team's
confidence start to turn
around, especially the con-
fidence of the underclass-
men.

"A lot of these guys are
gaining experience as we
go." said Reardon. "We
played well against Plym-
outh South but we still were
0-4 going into this game.
We are starting to play with
an understanding of where
we need to be and whom we
need to block and what we
need to do to win games.

"The talent is there. Guys
like Cesar are just starting to
tap that potential and our se-
niors are doing well keeping
the team in line. We are 1-0
in the league and we will
take that record as we head
into the rest of the league
schedule."

The Presidents opened
the game by scoring first.
After an interception by
Quincy's Tom Lowry. the
Presidents fumbled the ball
away to Pembroke, but Mc-
Donough got the ball back
to the offense w ith an inter-
ception on the Titian's next
possession. McDonough "s
pick set up Quincy "s first
touchdown.

Peterson connected with
junior Tom Pahi//j (first
career touchdoun) on a ten-
vard ID to ei\e Quinc\ an
early 6-0 advantage.

straight times on a four-yard

On Quinc>'s next pos-

"Pembroke scored three
times including once on a
long interception return."
said Reardon. "It didn't look
good heading into halftime. 65-\ard touchdown run.
but like I said, the team
responded in the second
half."

Red Raiders Fall To 2-4 After Loss

Duxbury Outlasts
North Quincy, 21-6

By SEAN BRENNAN

The North Quincy Red
Raiders hung with the de-
fending Division II Super
Bowl champions Duxhiiry
High School throughout all
four quarters of last Friday's
game, but in the end. fell in
defeat. 2 1-6.

The loss, the Red Raiders
fourth in a row, drops their
overall record to 2-4 overall.
0-2 in the Patriot League.
North Quinc) will be look-
ing to get back on the win-
ning traclv Friday night at 7
p.m. against Hinghapi High
School. The game will be
played at Veterans Memo-
rial Stadium.

"1 don't believe in moral
victories, but this may have
been the best game we have
played as a team all sea-
son," said North Quincy
head coach Jim Connor.
"They way we performed,
they way we executed as a
team and they way we came
out as a cohesive group was
good. This game should give
us some confidence moving
forward. It showed that if we
can hang with the defending

Super Bowl champions then
we play with anyone in this
league."

The Dragons opened the
scoring in the first quarter
on a 4 1 -yard touchdown run
from Bob Murphy, but the
Red Raiders cut into that
lead before halftime after se-
nior quarterback Mike Stan-
ton scored on a one-yard QB
sneak. North Quincy missed
the point after attempt { PAT)
and Duxbury took a 7-6 lead
into the locker room at the
break.

Defense controlled the
majority of the third quarter
as both teams struggled to
get any offensive produc-
tion. The Dragons eventual-
ly added to the 7-6 lead late
in the quarter when Henry
Buonagurio scored on a ten-
yard touchdown run. Dux-
bury closed out the scoring
with three minutes left in the
game on a fumble recovery
for a touchdown.

"We definitely played
better against Duxbury
than we had the previous
few weeks," added Connor
about his team's perfor-

mance. "It was a one-point
game at halftime and they
didn't score until late in the
third. We had our chances
to put up some points and
didn't, but we were in that
game the whole way."

The Red Raiders will
have their work cut out for
them the rest of the way. The
team, after hosting Hingham
HS on Friday, is scheduled
to play back-to-back road
games versus Scituate HS
(Oct, 30) and Whitman-
Hanson HS (Nov. 6) before
heading back to Veterans
Memorial Stadium to play
Silver Lake Regional HS on
Nov. 1 3 . The team concludes
the season on Thanksgiving
against Quincy HS.

"We are still in the mix
in the Patriot League," said
Connor. "1 don't like to lose,
and the ultimate goal is to
win games, but we have
been improving and we are
heading in the right direc-
tion. If we fix some things
than we will be competitive
in all the games left on the
schedule."

NQHS Finishes Week 0-2

By SEAN BRENNAN

One week they are up,
they next they are down. That
has been the ebb and flow of
the 2009 season for the North
Quincy High School girls
soccer program.

Last week the team
dropped two Patriot League
games. A tough-to-take
3-2 loss to Rockland High
School, a game marred by
whistles and a late Raider
goal that was overturned, was
followed with a 5-1 defeat to
Hingham High School. The
two losses dropped North
Quincy 's record to 7-8-1 (15
points) with four games re-
maining on the schedule.

The Red Raiders need to
finish the remainder of the
season at worst, 2-1-1 (20
points), in order to qualify
for the post-season tourna-
ment. North Quincy has
Whitman-Hanson, Silver
Lake, Duxbury and Scituate
High School on the docket.
The first time North Quincy
played these four teams this
fall they finished 0-4 and
were outscored by a 25-1
margin.

"Same as last year, it is
going to come down to the
final week of the season,"
said NQHS head coach Paul
Bregoli. "We have played

three games (Archbishop
Williams , Hanover and Rock-
land) where we left points
off the board. With only four
games left, we need to play
our best soccer if we want a
shot at the tournament. We
are playing OK right now,
but we do need a strong finish
to qualify for the postseason.
This is going to be a difficult
stretch of games."

In the Rockland game,
played early last week, the
Red Raiders quickly fell be-
hind 3-0. A number of scor-
ing chances came and went
in the first half including two
shots of the crossbar from se-
nior captains Devon McKay
and Cara Murtagh.

"Last week's losses were
not because of a lack of ef-
fort," added Bregoli. " We
had our chances in the first
half against Rockland, but, as
has been the case this season,
we could not finish around
the goal. The Rockland game
maybe a game that comes
back to haunt us in the end. "

In the second half. North
Quincy rallied with two late
tallies. The first, with 16 min-
utes remaining came off the
foot of Murtagh and the sec-
ond, five minutes later, was
scored by freshman forward
Shannon McCleary (seventh

of the season). Junior Jill
Carchedi was credited with
an assist on both goals.

With four minutes left in
the game, the Raiders were
awarded a direct kick just
outside the Rockland box.
McKay's kick went in the
net, but the officials called
off the goal after claiming a
North Quincy player pushed
the Rockland goalie.

"We went down 3-0 early,
but battled back in the second
half to make it a 3-2 game,"
said Bregoli. "Near the end
of the contest we had a goal
called back on a bad call.
It hurt because a tie would
have given us a much-needed
point. The girls were frustrat-
ed and so was the coaching
staff. Sometimes the officials
need to let the game play it-
self out."

Bregoli noted that Carche-
di, junior Sarah Gardiner
and seniors Dana Djerf and
Kristen Peterson played well
against Rockland.

Against Hingham, North
Quincy trailed 3-0 at half-
time. Murtagh scored the
team lone goal in the second
half.

North Quincy will play
host to Silver Lake Regional
High School Friday at 3:30
p.m. at Teal Field.

has more than doubled over
the pa.st decade, and it seems
that small trampolines are no
less at fault than their larger
counterparts. Recent research
points to the fact that children,
particularly those under the
age of six years, are just as
likely to become injured using
mini-trampolines as they are
on full-sized trampolines. This
finding should serve as a caution
to parents who think that the
smaller trampolines pose less
of an injury danger to their
children. Children involved in
mini-trampoline accidents were
also found to be more prone to
head injuries, probably because
their relatively high centers of
gravity make it more likely that
they will land on their heads.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Caution dominates the Sheep's
monetary aspect this week.
Rams and Ewes might want to
shear their big spending plans
until a more favorable financial
picture begins to emerge by
week's end.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Thrift counts both at home and
at work. So you might want
to rethink major purchases or
investments. Also, be wary of
a so-called revelation about a
previous decision.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Both household budgets and
workplace accounts might ben-
efit from some judicious trim-
ming of unnecessary expenses.
A partnership could lead to an
unexpected challenge.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) A previously overiooked
opportunity could re-emerge
with a new travel-related mat-
ter. Check this out carefully to
see if it's what you really want
before you decide one way or
another.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
This could be the start of a new
career-changing phase, so start
marking down your many ac-
complishments for those who
need to know how much you
have to offer. Good luck.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) It's not too eariy
for the sometimes procrastinat-
ing Virgo to start making those
long-distance travel plans. The
sooner you decide where to go,
when to go and how to go, the
better.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) Financial matters once
again figure in any major action
you might take regarding ca-

reer, travel or other endeavors.
You'll want a ready reserve to
help you back up those moves.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21 ) Trying to resolve a
problem in a personal relation-
ship could be more difficult
than you'd expected. Look into
the possibility that someone
might be interfering for his or
her own reasons.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) A proj-
ect you once rejected might
be more attractive because of
changes that you feel you can
now work with. The weekend
is especially favorable to fam-
ily matters.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) This is a gtx^d
week for the gregarious Goat
to enjoy being with people you
care for. You might even want to
show off those creative kitchen
skills you're so adept at.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A colleague might
think your attitude is patroniz-
ing or even outright insulting.
True. That might be his or her
problem. But you might want
to take some reassuring steps
anyway.

PISCES ( February 1 9 to March
20) It's a good time to jettison
those old concepts about a fam-
ily matter you might have been
holding on to. This will help
make room for a new and more
enlightened way of dealing
with it.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

like to analyze a puzzling situa-
tion before you try to resolve it.
This makes you excel at getting
things done the right way.

Tie the arm to the side and it with-

% ers; cease exercising the mind for a

^^Mjjsmm ^^ prolonged period and thinking can

M^B ^^L ^^1 be recovered no more than spoiled

HHb^^_^^^h fruit can regain freshness.

What great energj there is in
thought! It can be good or it can be
bad! New ideas and powerful thoughts
have affected the destiny of mankind.

Thoughts become a part of us and are reflected in our
lives. If our thoughts are so filled with faith, cheerfulness,
gratitude,encouragement,happiness,love and friendship,
there can be no room for such destructive thoughts as
greed, despair, fear and vulgarity.

Our thoughts of today will be creating a new tomor-
row, adding purpose to life. Life without a purpose is like
a train without a track - all power but no place to go.

Purpose in thought adds depth to life - a depth of
faith; it adds dimension - the dimension of hope; it adds
a discipline of patience - an ingredient of a happy life . .

Incidentally, we welcome any thoughts you may have

On Tuesday, Keenan
said there are a number of
issues related to the Hon-
eywell project and cited
seven directives from the
City Council Energy Com-
mittee which, among other
requests, recommended that
Phelan appoint a clerk of the
works, requested indepen-
dent peer review through-
out the contract and asked
that the city receive "de-
tailed specifications for all
new equipment."

Councillor Michael Mc-
Farland introduced the Hon-
eywell subject at Monday's
meeting. McFarland, Ray-
mondi and Keenan asked
that councillors discuss the
issue in full at Monday's
meeting.

However, the council
majority. Councillors Brian
McNamee, Ward 6; Kevin
Coughlin, Ward 3; Jay Da-
vis, Ward 4; Douglas Gutro,
Ward 5 and Joseph Firm,
At-Large, voted to have the
Finance Committee conduct
the review at a later date.

Prior to that vote. Coun-
cillor Joseph Finn asked
that the council's Oversight
Committee conduct the
Honeywell contract review
but that motion failed.

Finn said Tuesday that
he wanted councillors to
analyze what happened in
regard to the Honeywell
contact and "How did it
happen?" through an over-
sight committee review.

"Quite honestly, there's a
lot of accountability to share
around the table. What was
the level of due diligence
by the council?" said Finn
explaining the need for
examination by the coun-
cil's Oversight Committee
so that we don't "consider
these questions only in a po-
litical season."

Maintenance Agreement Among Issues

Finance Committee Opens
Hearings On Honeywell Project

By LAURA GRIFFIN

rCity Solicitor James Timmins
stated Monday that an $18 million
maintenance agreement between
the city and Honeywell Interna-
tional appears to be a separate
contract that was never vetted or
approved by City Council.

Timmins outlined the main-
tenance contract and numerous
issues regarding the Honeywell
program and contracts during the
Finance Committee's first meet-
ing focusing on the city's energy
savings contract with Honeywell
International and Honeywell Fi-
nance.

'The energy maintenance con-
tract does not have a separate
council vote," said Timmins who
charged the maintenance agree-
ment was executed on a separate
page signed by former Mayor Wil-
liam Phelan and by Kevin Mad-
den, Honeywell's vice president
of Global Sales. Madden has no
relation to the city's assistant city
solicitor.

"Any contract for more than
three years has to be approved by
this body," said Timmins who at-
tributed some of the problems to
the fact that the contract was pre-
pared by Honeywell, rather than
the city or state.

Phelan Comment On
Maintenance Contract

Page 2

"We never authorized the
maintenance contract." said John
Keenan, Finance Committee
Chairman.

"Honeywell has taken a risk in
this contract," Timmins said, ex-
plaining the company's rationale
for the maintenance agreement.
Honeywell guarantees savings
over 20 years or the company must
pay the city the difference so the
equipment must be maintained.

"Our energy guarantees are tied
to the maintenance contract," said
Timmins.

According to Timmins, the
Honeywell project was publicized
as a $32.8 million citywide over-
haul.

"We all viewed this as a $32
million contact but it is not," Tim-
mins said.

According to Timmins, the
city's $15 million interest to Hon-
eywell Global Financial changes
the base $32 million figure.

"This is actually a $47 mil-
lion contract," Timmins said of he
base.

The city's total bill will then

increase to $66 million when or
if the $18 million maintenance
agreement with Honeywell kicks
in, according to Timmms,

Timmins cited the signature
page of the mamtenance agree-
ment and "what 1 believe to be a
separate contract. Its got its own
pay schedule." said Timmins.

According to Timmins. the
maintenance contract does not
have the signatures which signify
review by the city auditor, com-
missioner of public works, or city
solicitor. The main contract does.

Contacted after the meeting.
Phelan stated the maintenance
plan was a line item and part of the
contract. "The City Council voted
on this." Phelan said, adding. "It
then authorized the contract which
included the maintenance agree-
ment. The entire program, in-
cluding the mamtenance contract,
will be paid for by savmgs and
enhanced revenue." His full state-
ment is on Page 2.

Timmins said that he reviewed
the tapes of the City Council dis-
cussions of the Honeywell project
but found no reference to the $ 1 8
million maintenance agreement.

Several councillors said Mon-
day that they had no recollection

Phelan Comments On
Honeywell Maintenance Contract

Mayoral candidate

William Phelan issued the
following statement in res-
ponse to the City Council's
Finance Committee mee-
ting Monday night concer-
ning the Honeywell Main-
tenance Contract.

Here is Phelan's com-
ment:

"Maintenance is a criti-
cal element of the program.
You don't invest $32 mil-
lion in the program without
investing in the mainte-
nance of the equipment.

The City Council recogni-
zed that when it approved
the program, including a
line item in the program for
maintenance.

"The failure of the Koch
administration to maintain
the equipment jeopardizes
not only the energy savings
guarantee, but also the equi-
pment itself.

"A detailed financial
program was presented to
the City Council by my
Administration prior to the
approval in May 2007, in-

cluding the expected sa-
vings, enhanced revenue,
and the payment for the
costs, including payment
of the lease and the main-
tenance of the equipment.
The City Council voted on
this. It then authorized the
contract, which included
the maintenance agree-
ment.

"The entire program,
including the maintenance
contract, will be paid for
by savings and enhanced
revenue."

Finance Committee Opens Hearings On Honeywell Project

Con "t From Page I

of discussing the $ 1 8 million
maintenance agreement.

"It should have been dis-
closed," said Timmins who
said that Honeywell's en-
ergy savings are not guar-
anteed unless the city agrees
to funding the maintenance
agreement.

If the city doesn't use
Honeywell's maintenance
program and pay the $ 1 8
million, Honeywell does not
guarantee the energy sav-
ings.

During the same meet-
ing, Timmins cited other
issues ranging from equip-
ment problems, the lack of
engineering data, permits,
and cost data, and an unau-
thorized payment to Hon-
eywell in 2007 which was
labeled "fraud" by the city's
independent auditor. Powers
& Sullivan.

After councillors ques-
tioned Timmins, Chairman
John Keenan read into the
record an Oct. 23 letter from
Honeywell's Regional Gen-
eral Manager Tom Hamilton
who attended the meeting.

"We want to sit down and
resolve this," said Hamilton.
"We're not walking away. "
"Honeywell would never

intentionally misrepresent
the costs," said Hamilton
who warned city officials
that they're already behind
in maintenance of the new
equipment.

"1 can't stand seeing
equipment not maintained,"
said Hamilton who said
some equipment has already
been installed for over three
years, but not maintained.

"We are literally play-
ing with fire," said Ward 4
Councillor Jay Davis who
asked, "What in the world is
the city going to do to main-
tain these things?"

Councillor Michael Mc-
Farland said he would be
"very reluctant" to approve
the maintenance funding
until councillors are satis-
fied with all the projects.

"I'm concerned about the
quality," said Ward 3 Coun-
cillor Kevin Coughlin, refer-
ring to issues at one project.

Timmins described sev-
eral problems, particularly
with heating and venting at
several schools.

In his Oct. 23 letter to
Keenan, Hamilton asserts
that the project will save
"approximately $1 million
per year as a result of the
upgrades," and notes the

savings are guaranteed over
20 years.

Hamilton rejected claims
that the Wollaston Library
roof cost $224,512 as item-
ized on a company spread-
sheet and wrote that the city
has already accepted 95% of
the company's projects.

"Recent criticism of the
program cherry-pick indi-
vidual prices which is mis-
leading because most of
the services and materials
were acquired in bulk," said
Hamilton in his letter.

"We're not standing here
saying we've been perfect.
We admitted to some of the
blips," Hamilton told the
council. "We want to re-
solve this."

In his report, Timmins
said that Honeywell de-
clined to give exact prices
for equipment and Hamilton
acknowledged that such in-
formation would not be re-
leased.

"Honeywell considers its
interaction with its contrac-
tors proprietary and would
not share (the information),"
Timmins said who noted
that Honeywell did send that
information to the Inspector
General's office where the
project is currently undergo-

mg a review.

Ward 2 Councillor Daniel
Raymondi asked Hamilton
why his company's contrac-
tor would file a building per-
mit describing the Wollaston
Library roof as a $45,000
project while a spreadsheet
from his company listed the
roof at $224,512.

Raymondi said the per-
mit includes a warning that
statements are made under
penalty of perjury. He asked
how much the roof did cost.

None of the councillors
appeared happy with the

timing of the first meeting
on the Honeywell contract.
Davis noted the hearing was
just "eight days before an
election."

"What I'm currently
hearing is a biased presen-
tation on the eve of an elec-
tion," said Ward 6 Council-
lor Brian McNamee while
Ward 5 Councillor Douglas
Gutro noted he sought to
have hearings in 2008.

As chairman, Keenan
said he knew he'd be criti-
cized because of the tim-
ing. However, he called the

meeting as requested by the
council majority on Oct. 19.
Prior to that vote, Keenan
said that he had planned to
wait until after receiving a
final report from the Inspec-
tor General's office.

Keenan called 20-year
maintenance contract with
the city, "unconscionable,"
and said councillors must
institute safeguards so that it
"never happens again."

Both Keenan and Gutro
stated that the seven rec-
ommendations filed by the

By JOE REARDON

The Department of Pub-
lic Works is looking to se-
cure FEMA funds to battle a
Quincy Point flooding prob-
lem that has been ongoing
for more than 20 years.

The DPW wants to install
a new storm drainage system
in the area of Spence, Craig,
Charlesmount and Bums
Aves., and Circuit Road to
collect rainwater. The pre-
application has already been
approved.

City Engineer Shawn
Hardy said Monday night
that FEMA looks at the ben-

efit and costs when giving
out grants and stressed to the
residents of those neighbor-
hood to fill out the question-
naire that had been mailed
to them. As of Monday, he
had received five back of 40
that were sent out.

"We have received the
grants before," said Hardy.
"Every year we look at ar-
eas for funding. It's benefit,
cost. That's what they look
at."

Sue Spibo of 16 Spence
Ave. said she first wrote a

Committee regarding the

CUTTING-EDGE DIAMONDS

While diamonds were
discovered in India more than
two thousand years ago. they were
not deliberately cut because it was
thought that doing so would destroy
the gemstone's magical properties.
Even the Romans could not solve
the mystery of how to cut such a
hard material. Today, of course,
we know that it takes diamonds
to cut diamonds. While less than
one-quarter of all mined diamonds
are gem-quality specimens, more
than three-quarters of all mined
diamonds are used for industrial
purposes, including diamond
cutting. One diamond can be used
to cut another diamond based on
the fact that a crystal will be more
brittle in certain directions than in

;3»9!*£

others. Today, diamonds are also
cut by lasers.

In its natural state, a gemstone's
beauty is generally well concealed.
What makes it beautiful, what
unlocks the brilliance and fire
within to let it shine is the cut.

colored gemstones a cut above

said in a Sept. 28 letter ad-

and businesses.

Hardy said copies of
photos showing damage
of previous floods, insur-
ance claims and contractor
invoices for repairs due to
flooding were also required.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi said it was
important for people in that
area to be aware of the "ur-

he was committed in finding

Councillors Want Report
On Water Meter Fees

Ihursdav. October 29, 2(MW Tlie Qtxixicy Sun Paj;« 3

By JOE REARDON

The City Council's Pub-
lic Works Committee is
asking for a report from the
city soHcitor regarding the
legality of water meter fees
with the concern that certain
businesses are not paying
their bills.

A meter fee of $98.25
was added to the January
2007 water bill according to
an Oct. 2 letter from the Pol-
lard Place Condominiums
board of trustees to Ward
2 Councillor Daniel Ray-
mondi. The letter stated that
when the trustees called the
city about the charge, they
were told it was an insur-
ance policy premium.

"We were told by the city
that these meters would be
more efficient, and that there
would be no cost to the own-
ers," it said in the letter.

"We are asking you.
Councillor Raymondi, if
this fee or tax can be stopped
immediately and if our con-
dominium association can

get a credit for the two years
that we have paid this added
meter tax."

Michael Coffey, the De-
partment of Public Work's
business manager, said the
fee for the three-inch meters
covers the purchase cost, in-
stallation and repair of the
meters. The meters have a
one-year warranty, accord-
ing to Coffey.

There were immediate
problems with five meters
that proved to be defective.
Honeywell, the company
that installed and maintains
the meters, tested 65 of them
and several were also defec-
tive. Coffey said.

"It became clear it was
a small subset" of the total
number of meters according
to Coffey.

The cost to the city to re-
place the 650 meters would
be $1.5 million, which Cof-
fey called a "wild guess."
The ave^-age life expectancy
of the meters is between 15-
20 years and the cost of the

Wreath To Honor
John Adams Friday

A special memorial cer-
emony honoring the 274th
anniversary of President
John Adams birth, and fea-
turing the presentation of a
Presidential wreath from the
White House will be held
at Friday, Oct. 30 at noon
at the Church of the Presi-
dents, 1306 Hancock St. in
Quincy Center.

The memorial will fea-
ture guest speakers who
will reflect on the life and
times of President John Ad-
ams, a direct descendant of
pilgrims, John and Priscilla
Alden.

The program will also
feature guest musicians in-
cluding the Navy Brass En-
semble of Newport, R.l.

city to maintain them for
20 years would be approxi-
mately $3.7 million.

Raymondi asked just
how difficult is it to maintain
new meters and w hy there is
a fee for maintenance that
is already covered. He said
it has been a question many
residents are asking him.
"That's a good question
and I don't have the answer
to it," Coffey said. "I have
difficulty defending it as
well."

Ward 6 Councillor Brian
McNamee wanted to know
who has been found to have
faulty meters and how the
cost will be recouped. "It's
the number one question
and a very fair question,"
McNamee said. "We've got
to do something to collect
this money."

The companies that have
been found to be unmetered
include the Wollaston Yacht
Club. Clipper Manna, Suds
Plus Car Wash, Pier No. I
at the shipyard, the MBTA
Ferry Commuter Terminal,
several locations along Wol-
laston Beach of the Division
of Conservation and Recre-
ation, and Mass Highway on
Granite Ave., City Solicitor
James Timmins said.

"I don't know of any
other than this group here,"
Timmins added.

Timmins said he didn't
want to get into the esti-
mates of money to be re-
couped publicly, but Mc-
Namee thought it should be
made public to put pressure
on the companies that owe.

So, have you decided?
Do you know who you are going to vote for in the
contested races for mayor, school committee and ward
councillor next Tuesday?

If you were expecting - hoping - or anticipating - any
endorsements for those races in this week's Quincy Sun,
sorry to disappoint you but we are not endorsing any-
one.

The only endorse-
ment we'll make is
this: get out and vote.

The Sun has cov-
ered 20 city elections
since the paper's in-
ception in 1968. The
2009 election marks
city election number
21 for us. And over

that span of 41 years, The Sun has endorsed only one
candidate and that occurred some time ago - long before
this writer joined the staff in 1987.

Jt has been written in this space many times that The
Quincy Sun doesn't endorse for mainly one reason: we
believe the electorate is smart enough to make it's own
decision at the polls. Why should a newspaper try to ex-
ert any influence on the voting public?

Sure, newspaper endorsements are common else-
where. But not here. The Sun maintains voters willing to
take the time to cast ballots on Election Day are certainly
capable of forming their own opinions about those same
candidates on that ballot.

And this year is no exception.

There has been an abundance of information avail-
able for voters to sift through - from political ads and
campaign inserts to websites and mass mailings to letters
to the editor from supporters to press releases and an-
nouncements from the candidates themselves.

While some may argue campaign literature is mainly
political rhetoric, we've tried to gather our own facts
while gathering news on other subjects that readers de-
serve to know about.

In terms of the contentious mayor's race between in-
cumbent Mayor Tom Koch and former Mayor William
Phlen, we have attended candidate forums and reported
on what these two candidates have to say about issues
raised at those forums.

And we have published advanced articles on when
various forums will be held throughout the city - and
some of those televised - so that interested voters can see
for themselves what the candidates are saying by attend-
ing the fomms in person and/or watching them on TV.

We remind voters who are still undecided about their
choice for mayor that Quincy Access TV will replay the
last formal debate between Koch and Phelan on Channel
8 starting today (Thursday) at 11 a.m., 7 p.m. and 2 a.m.
and again Saturday, Oct. 31 at 1 and 7 p.m. and Sunday,
Nov. 1 at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.

This week - our last issue before Election Day next
Tuesday - we are also publishing profiles of all the candi-
dates in contested races. That's a total of 14 profiles - two
candidates for mayor; two candidates for Ward Council-
lor in Wards 1 , 4 and 6; and six candidates for School
Committee.

The profiles contain biographical information as well
as the response to this question: What is the most impor-
tant issue that you will address if elected and how will
you address it?

The profile is our last effort to shed light on these can-
didates and let them speak to the voters one last time - in
our paper, anyway - before Election Day.

In terms of the mayor's race, there have been a multi-
tude of issues raised and in some instances rehashed over
and over again.

Like the song goes, "if you don't know me by now,
you will never know me."

And we would hope our readers know these candi-
dates by now - their records and positions on the issues
that matter most to Quincy voters.

There are plenty of reasons to head to the polls next

Tuesday - and not just in the mayor's race.

Council and school committee candidates elected next
Tuesday will have some tough decisions to make dur-
ing his or her term in office. City finances, downtown
redevelopment, neighborhood issues, school projects and
education policy just to name a few.

Frankly, if you live in Quincy, pay taxes in Quincy,
have children in the city schools or are concerned about
the overall quality of life in Quincy, then there is no
reason to avoid the polls next Tuesday. That means just
about everyone who is a registered voter.

Unfortunately, there will be a significant number of
voters who will ignore the democratic process next Tues-
day.

City Clerk Joseph Shea has predicted turnout will be
about 50 percent of the city's 55, 581 registered voters.
That's about 11,000 more voters than the 16,000 voters
who cast ballots in the September preliminary election.

On the surface, it may seem like the 27,790 voters
who are predicted to vote Tuesday is a healthy number.
But there's still another 27,790 or so voters who will stay
home.

That's a truly disappointing fact.

But it hasn't always been that way.

In fact, before 1989, there were three city elections
where turnout was higher than 70 percent.

They are:

• 75.5 percent in 1959, headlined by the Amclio Delia
Chiesa - James Mclntyre mayoral race.

• 70.8 percent in I97I, Walter Hannon - Joseph Brett
mayoral race.

• 70 percent in 1 975 - Hannon - Joseph LaRaia may-
oral race.

The highest turnout in the last 20 years was in 1989
when Jim Sheets was elected to his first term over Peter
O'Connell . A little over 60 percent of the city's registered
voters turned out.

Certainly the city can - and should - do better than a
50 percent voter turnout.

And while we encourage voters to participate in next
Tuesday's election, we also have an eye on Wednesday,
Nov. 4.

This year's mayoral race has been one of the most po-
larizing in recent decades. We hope that after all the votes
are tabulated, the city can come together and support all
the winners.

So, vote next Tuesday.

There's no reason not to.

Q

IN THE RACE to succeed the late Sen. Ted Kennedy,
it would appear state Attorney General Martha Coakley
has the advantage - in Quincy anyway.

Coakley, one of four Democrats running to fill
Kennedy's unexpired term, has submitted the most signa-
tures (here) to get on the ballot for the Dec. 8 primary.

Last week the City Election Department certified
1 ,434 signatures of local voters from Coakley's nomina-
tion papers in Quincy.

Here are the number of certified signatures from the
other Democratic coritenders as well as the Republican
candidates:

Democrats: Stephen Pagliuca, a managing director of
private equity firm Bain Capital and managing partner of
the Boston Celtics - 860; Alan Khazei, co-founder and
former CEO of City Year - 706; Cong. Michael Capuano
of Somerville - 480.

On the Republican side. State Sen. Scott Brown of
Wrentham has submitted papers in Quincy with 1 29 cer-
tified signatures. Jack E. Robinson, who made a failed
attempt at Kennedy's seat in 2000, has submitted papers
with 33 certified signatures in Quincy. It remains to be
seen if Robinson will qualify for the Republican prima-
ry-

The deadline to submit nomination papers was Oct.
20. The candidates need a total of 10,000 signatures to be
on the ballot in their respective primaries. The election
department must return the nomination papers (with the
number of signatures) to the state Secretary of State's of-
fice by today (Thursday).

Readers Forum

Place 'Open Forum' Before School Committee Meeting

Each School Commit-
tee meeting has an "Open
Forum," which is an op-
portunity for the public to
comment on agenda items
and school issues. This is
a wonderful opportunity to
have a free exchange of in-
formation between residents
and their elected officials.

In years past, this fo-
rum was the first item on
the agenda; it was changed
a number of years ago to
follow the School Superin-

tendant's report. Because
of this, the public does not
know the exact time of this
forum.

On Oct. 14, 2009, 1 spoke
at open forum and urged the
School Committee to place
"Open Forum" at the begin-
ning of each meeting.

This change would have
a significant impact on at-
tendance. Residents would
know that beginning at 7
p.m., they would have an
opportunity to voice their
concerns. The public would

be able to predict the time of
open forum. This is benefi-
cial to all, especially to the
parents of school age chil-
dren who require care and
attention during the evening
hours. This would allow
parents to make appropnate
arrangements for childcare,
knowing the time that they
can speak. After making a
statement, speakers could
leave the meeting to attend
to their business at home
and view the meeting on

television.

This small change would
go a long way to encourage
more of the public to come
to the School Committee
to share their concerns and
questions. An open line of
communication assists the
committee in making deci-
sions for the Quincy Public
Schools. Lets make it easier
for more to attend.

earliest baking skills."

Insurance

STRATEGIES

by Jim SuMhran

ENABLE YOURSELF

How long do you think you
could survive without steady income
if you were to become di.sabled?A.s
you ponder this potentially dire
prospect, bear in mind the Council
for Disability Awareness says that
three in ten workers will become
disabled prior to retiring and that
the average long-term-disability
absence from work lasts 2.5 years.
For those fortunate enough to have
employer-paid group long-term
di.sability insurance, this type of
policy will take over where short-
term disability insurance leaves off.
It also comes as a no-cost benefit
to workers. However, unless the
employee takes steps to pay for
the premiums with his or her own
after-tax dollars, the disability
benefits are taxed. Ihis is where
mdividual di.sability insurance
comes into play

At JAMl-.S J, SULLIVAN
INSURANCL AGHNCY, call us
and let's discuss your auto or any
insurance matter you may have.
We develop insurance plans that
cover you and your family at every
stage. We look at each person and
each family as a special unit and
create the broadest and most cost-
effective insurance plan available.
Please call us at 6l7-.328-86()0 for
more information or to schedule an
appointment. We are located at 1 5 1

To Revitalize Quincy Center, Officials Say

$14M In Federal Stimulus
Earmarked For Downtown

Quincy Rotary Club Honors
Dolly Di Pesa With Harris Fellowship

Cong. Bill Deluhunt and
Quincy Mayor Ihomas
Koch announced Tuesday
that more than $14 mil-
lion in federal stimulus and
transpt^rtation funding will
be awarded to the City's
$1 billion plan to revitalize
Quincy Center.

'The money secured
with the strong support of
Senator Kerry and the late
Senator Kennedy will pro-
mote the economic vitality
of the region and will create
hundreds of much needed
jobs," said Delahunt. "May-
or Koch has made the revi-
talization of the downtown a
top priority and this infusion
of federal and state funding
is a testament to his leader-
ship."

"This is another major
milestone for New Quincy
Center, where tangible prog-
ress is now being made al-
most every day," Koch said.
"I wish to thank Con-
gressman Delahunt for his
support and hard work on a
project that is going to drive
our local economy for years
to come.

"New Quincy Center
is tailor-made to the spirit
of the stimulus program: it
will create 4,000 construc-
tion jobs, 7,000 permanent
jobs and will be the largest
private investment in our
City's history at more than
$1 billion. Most important-
ly, it will provide the new
commercial tax revenue we
need for schools, our police
and fire departments and in-
frastructure improvements."
On Monday, Gov. Deval
Patrick joined Delahunt to
announce that $8.1 million
in federal stimulus fundmg
would be awarded to the
construction of the long-
planned Quincy Center
Concourse, seen as vital to
the development plan. Also
on Monday, Delahunt and
Koch hosted a meeting with
federal and state transporta-
tion officials and with staff

from Sen John Kerry and
Sen. Paul Kirk, to give the
green light to allocate a $6
million federal earmark for
infrastructure improvements
related to the New Quincy
Center project.

The Quincy Center
Concourse will connect
Southern Artery (Rte 3A)
to Burgin Parkway, creat-
ing the first major East-West
artery through Quincy Cen-
ter. The federal funding will
pay for the construction of
the final phase of the project
where it crosses Hancock
Street, connecting what is
now McGrath Highway to
Burgin Parkway.

Officials consider the
concourse, on the draw-
ing board for more than 30
years, crifical to moving
traffic through New Quincy
Center and creating a foun-
dation for more than $1 bil-
lion in new development
that is driving the current
City's plans. Construction
on the second phase is on-
going today, and the final
phase is expected to begin

City officials say Qum-
cy is now in final negotia-
tions with master developer
Street-Works on a $1.4 bil-
lon overall plan.

The Street-Works project
would widen Quincy Cen-
ter's sidewalks, alter traffic,
daylight a portion of Ibwn
Brook, create open civic ar-
eas and green space and add
about 684, (XX)- square feet of
office space, 590 ,fXX)- square
feet of retail space, 1,I(X)
residential units, a hotel and
3,734 parking spaces.

According to an eco-
nomic analysis by the New
York-based firm AKRF,
the project would boost the
city's property tax revenues
by $10 million per year and
will generate 4222 con-
struction jobs in Quincy and
7, (XX) permanent jobs.

Koch recently reached
a tentative agreement with
Street-Works that would
guarantee 25 percent of all
construction jobs be set-
aside for Quincy residents.

jEAR HAMMER: I

wanted ti) relate t(i you
the recent "tun" my husband and
I had with our water heater in the
hopes your readers could use the
information.

We were hosting a dinner par-
ty last week when, near the end
of the party, my husband noticed
a hissing sound coming from the
utility closet. We both ignored it
as we said goodbye to our guests.
As I began to wash the dishes, 1
noted that the water was very hot;
then it quickly went lukewarm
and cold as I rin.sed the dishes.

About then, my husband
a.sked, "Who spilled wine in the
hallway?" He wiped it up, only to
return Hve minutes later to more
liquid. That's when we paid at-
tention to the hissing from the
utility closet. Opening it up, we
noticed water p(M)ling under the
water heater and beginning to
spill out into the laundry room
and hallway. The hissing sound
was water rushing through the
cold-water feed pipe into the wa-
ter heater. Water dripped from the
overflow valve and from the bot-
tom of the tank.

My husband quickly shut off
the gas at the water heater (using
the on/off/pilot control knob at
the bottom of the unit). He ex-
plained that even though the pilot
light had been doused and a valve
would keep gas from continuing
to flow, turning the controls to
"ofF' was an important safety
step. He also turned the tempera-
ture control to its lowest setting.
Then he tried to close the
shutoff valve for the cold water
feed pipe. Problem! The water

would not shut off, and it was
continuing to leak out into the
utility room.

While I contacted the mamte-
nance man for our condominium,
my husband kKated and shut oft
the main water valve for our unit.
This meant we would have no
water, but it also would .stop the
condo from being fl<H)ded.

The maintenance man came
right over, despite the late hour,
and drained the tank for us to stop
additional flcxxling. He noted that
the cold-water shutoff valve had
been improperly mstalled, which
is why it didn't work, and that he
would need to replace that as well
as the water heater.

In short, by acting quickly ti>
address the water heater break-
down, we were able to minimize
damage from the fl(X)d. We had
only a little di.scomfort at spend-
ing the night without running wa-
ter, but the heater was replaced
and the shutoff valve repaired.
1 hope your readers can u.se this
information if they ever hear a
strange hiss from the utility clos-
et. - Tress V.. Atlanta

DEAR TRESS: Many
thanks for the story! I'm
sure my readers will benefit. Mo.st
important is that your husband
knew where shutoff controls for
both the water and gas feeds were
located, and prevented additional
flood damage.

HOME TIP: Before an emer-
gency happens, take time to lo-
cate and note the location of main
shutoff locations for your home's
water, gas and electric feeds.

How Can Energy Efficient Windows Save Money?

During Hnergy Aware-
ness M(.)nth in October,
many hi)mec)wners may be
asking the question, "how
can energy-efhcient win-
dows save me money?"

Christopher Burk, prod-
uct manager with Simon-
ton Windows®, tackles this
question — and several
other window inquiries —
while offering sound advice
for consumers.

Q: How can energy-ef-
ficient vinyl replacement or
new construction windows
save me money?

A: Vinyl windows with
energy-efficient glass pack-
ages can dramatically help
prevent the natural transfer
of heat and cold into your
home during various sea-
sons of the year. By control-
ling this natural conduction,
you can better manage the
comfort level in your home.
You can save money-and
realize a significant return
on investment-by lower-
ing the amount of energy it
takes to heat or cool your
home throughout the year.

Q: When should 1 replace
the windows in my home?

A: Just like roofing and
siding on your home, win-
dows need to be replaced
every 20 years or so. Make
it a part of your yearly home
maintenance checklist to
carefully evaluate your

windows. Older windows
can lose efficiency, causing
heating and cooling bills to
rise. When it's time to re-
place the windows, research
upgraded window packages
that are ENERGY STAR®
qualified that can help lower
your monthly energy bills.

Q: How do I evaluate my
windows?

A: To determine if your
current windows are ener-
gy-efficient, Simonton rec-
ommends a few easy do-it-
yourself steps:

• Look for condensation
between the panes of glass
on double- or triple-glazed
windows. This could indi-
cate seal failure. If this is the
case, you might need to re-
place the glass or the entire
window.

• Check to see if there
are any "burnt out" areas on
your carpets and furnishings
where harmful ultraviolet
rays have damaged the in-
terior of your home. This is
an indication that your win-
dows need spectrally selec-
tive Low E glass to block
the sun's harmful rays.

• Research to determine
if you have the appropriate
glass package for where you
live. For example, if you
live in a cooler northern re-
gion you'll find increased
performance in the insula-
tion properties of a low U-

value. For more information

Q: What window frame
type is the most energy ef-
ficient?

A: Vinyl frames with
multi-chambered construc-
tion and fusion-welded
corners are one of the most
energy-efficient available.
Vinyl frames are especially
effective when combined
with a Low E glass pack-
age.

Q: What kind of glass
should 1 ask for in replace-
ment windows?

A: At a minimum, you'll
want to start with Low E
glass in your window. Then,
request a dense, harmless
(and odorless) gas fill, like
Argon or Krypton, be in-
serted between the panes of
glass. This gas fill acts as
a type of barrier and helps
prevent the transfer of heat
or cold into your home.
Controlling the amount of
convection between the
panes of glass will help you
use less energy to heat or
cool your home.

Q; Why should 1 consid-
er vinyl framed replacement
windows?

A: Vinyl replacement
windows are durable and
help you lower monthly
energy costs, increase the
value of your home, reduce
maintenance hassles and
add beauty to the interior
and exterior of your home.
According to the U.S. De-
partment of Energy (DOE),
the typical home loses
more than 25 percent of
its heat through windows.
The DOE reports that vinyl
windows have moderate to
high R-values, a measure of
both the construction of the
window and the materials
used versus heat flow. That

translates into reduced heat
loss and greater thermal ef-
ficiency that can help you
save money and reduce en-
ergy costs.

Another reason to con-
sider vinyl replacement
windows is that they can
be custom made to fit your
design and remodeling re-
quirements.

Q: Why should I be con-
sidering replacing my win-
dows right now?

A: You can gain immedi-
ate savings on your energy
bills starting the day your
new energy-efficient re-
placement windows are in-
stalled. And, right now, you
can receive up to $1,500 in
federal tax credit when re-
placing windows in 2009
and 2010 that meet certain
government requirements.
The windows must have a
U-factor rating of 0.30 or
less and a Solar Heat Gain
Coefficient (SHGC) of 0.30
or less to qualify for the fed-
eral tax credit.*

Q: What kind of glass
packages does Simonton
offer that meet the require-
ments for the federal tax
credit?

A: Simonton Windows'
Energy Tax Credit (ETC)
glass packages are guaran-
teed to meet the U.S. gov-
ernment requirements for
the energy tax credit. For
details and information,
visit www.simonton.com/
taxcredit.

Q: Where can I learn
more about energy-efficient
windows?

A: There are many re-
sources available to home-
owners. Visit the ENERGY
STAR site at www.energys-
tar.gov, the Home Energy
Saver at http;//hes.lbl.gov/

Sacred Heart School Sponsors
School Supply Drive For Casserly House

Sacred Heart School
sponsored a school supply
drive to benefit one of their
ministries, Casserly House,
to honor the selfless congre-
gation and remember those
less fortunate. Students
were asked to donate note-
books, pens, pencils, eras-
ers, markers or crayons.

The Sisters of Saint Jo-
seph of Boston served the
Sacred Heart Community
for many years as teachers
and administrators at Sacred
Heart School. The mission
of Casserly House, named
after Mother Regis Casserly,
the foundress of the Sisters
of St. Joseph of Boston, is

to be a living presence in the
neighborhood - a presence
which furthers the mission
of the Sisters: to foster unity
of people with their God and
unity of people with one an-
other. Staff and volunteers
position themselves to be of
service in the neighborhood
where they are located and
in the larger community of
Roslindale in whatever way
they are called upon, and for
which they have the neces-
sary skills and capacity to
respond. Collaboration with
local civic and neighbor-
hood associations is a hall-
mark of their ministry.
"Last year, when we

sponsored a similar drive
for Casserly House, we
were able to collect enough
to supply the ministry with
items for use during the
entire school year and sum-
mer sessions," said Kath-
erine Hunter, Sacred Heart
School Principal.

Established in 1961,
Sacred Heart School (SHS)
located in North Quincy, is
a Roman Catholic School
enrolling students in Pre-
Kindergarten through Grade
Eight. SHS is accredited
by the New England Asso-
ciation of Schools and Col-
leges.

In his book "Abigail
Adams," award- winning
historian Holten presents a
surprising look at America's
second First Lady.

Holten, a 2007 National

Book Award finalist, reveals
Abigail Adams that not only
wrote about rights and liber-
ties denied to 18th century
women, she championed
them - "in the public eye
and in her own home."

Abigail's charming and
literate letters to her often
absent husband, John Ad-
ams, are impassioned pleas
for justice and fairness to
all in the new and emerg-
ing nation. "Remember the
Ladies," Abigail entreated,
and her words are remem-

bered and celebrated to this
day.

Holten is an associate
professor of history at the
University of Richmond in
Virginia and the recipient of
the Guggenheim Fellowship
for "Abigail Adams." His
other award-winning books
include "Forced Founders:
and "Unruly Americans and
the Origins of the Constitu-
tion."

Proactive Approach
In Handling Bullies

Cont 'd From Page 1

them " said Tenaglia.

Committee member

Anne Mahoney believed the
interventions are important
because bullying "won't go
away" despite educating the
children about the problem.

Kids and Company is
introduced to second-grade
children and teaches them
basic safety skills, the buddy
system and communication
when dealing with a bully.
Assertiveness skills are em-
phasized in the program.

"We make it activity
based," said Tenaglia. "We
see what's on their minds."

Second Step is taught
from in the elementary

schools, kindergarten thru
fifth grade. Violence pre-
vention as well as empathy,
emotional management,
problem solving and coop-
eration are emphasized as
well.

At the fourth-grade level
the children are taught the
three "Rs" - recognize, re-
fuse and report when a prob-
lem with a bully arises in the
Steps To Respect program.
This method opens the door
to enable students to be part
of the solution to stop the
bullying.

Committee member

Elaine Dwyer praised the
program. "This is obviously
working because we hear
very little about bullying,"

she said.

Internet bullying and the
importance of parents in
being vigilant in what their
children are doing when
they are online was also dis-
cussed.

"Bullying on the internet
- students sometimes don't
know where to draw the
line," Mahoney said. "If you
know your child is in trouble
it's important to reach out to
the schools.

"Oftentimes the bully is
acfing out over something
that has grown over time,"

Tenaglia said the pro-
grams are also geared to
help the bullies and at-risk
kids to get the help and sup-
port they need.

ignored.

These included the need
for peer review and a clerk

Gutro suggested the
Committee set up four one-
hour committee meetings in
the future to discuss the fol-
lowing:

1 . The work done build-
ing by building

2. Maintenance contract

3 . Energy and water sav-
ings

4. Isolate the bills in
question.

In addition, Gutro asked
that all relevant documents,
and tapes be copied and dis-
tributed to all councillors

before the next meeting.

City Council received the
first council order referenc-
ing the energy savings pro-
gram on April 17, 2007 and
unanimously the project on
May 7, 2009.

Then Mayor Phelan
signed the contract and a

* • On The Campaign Trail * * ^^^ Recommends 4 For School Seats

QE A Recommends Koch For Mayor

TTie Quincy Education
Association announced
Tuesday that their Executive
Board is recommending that
QEA members and MTA
members who Hve in Quin-
cy vote for Thomas Koch
for mayor. The QEA also
makes that recommendation
to all citizens of Quincy.

Massachusetts Teach-
ers Association records
show that over 1,000 MTA
members live in the City of
Quincy.

In its announcement, the
QEA noted "that whoever
wins this election will hr the
Mayor for the next round of

collective bargaining for all
City unions. Our experience
of bargaining with Mayor
Koch has always been re-
spectful, and conducted in
private as allowed and en-
couraged by law. Mayor
Koch, working with all City
unions, reached agreement
on moving the health insur-
ance of employees to the
state Group Insurance Com-
mission, saving the City
millions each year.

"The QEA led the ratifi-
cation effort for that move,
in what proved to be a win-
win agreement, a benefit to
the City taxpayers and City

employees. That experience
exemplified what collective
bargaining should be.

"The QEA makes this
and all recommendations
to our members consistent
with our role as advocates
for educators, their students
and public education. We be-
lieve that those interests are
best served for our members
by voting for Tom Koch for
Mayor of Quincy. We enthu-
siastically recommend Tom
Koch to our members, our
colleagues and our neigh-
bors of Quincy," said Paul
Phillips, president of the
QEA.

The Quincy Education
AsscKiation announced

Tuesday that their Execu-
tive Board is recommend-
ing that QEA members and
MTA members who live in
Quincy vote for Barbara
Isola, Emily Lebo, Matt
Lockwood Mullaney and
incumbent Anne Mahoney
for Sch(X)l Committee.

In its announcement the
QEA stated:

"There are three seats
available and the QEA rec-
ommends four candidates.
This is due. we believe, to
the high quality of candi-
dates this year. The QEA
commissioned a committee
to interview candidates, and
their efforts, combined with
the decision of the Execu-

tive Committee of the QEA
resulted in four equal rec-
ommendations to the mem-
bership of the QEA. and to
the citizens of the City of
Quincy.

"The QEA values Anne
Mahoney for. among other
things, her understanding of
the educational issues and
policy issues from overuse
and misuse of testing, and
for her advocating to par-
ents and citizens to fullv un-
derstand the proper use and
function of test results.

"Barbara Isola is valued
by QEA for her long advo-
cacy for children, parents
and the public schools.

"Matt Lockwood Mul-
laney impressed the QEA
with his own educational
background, and his willing-

ness to listen and understand
all sides of an issue

"Emily I^ebo has long
demonstrated her commit
ment to Quincy s students
through her work in voca-
tional education, and we
believe shell understand
and advocate for the issues
important to teachers and
students.

"Ihe QEA makes rec-
ommendations lo Its mem-
bership and the community
respectful of each citizens
responsibility to carefully
cast their votes for those
who can best serve Quincy.
We do so as part of our re-
sponsibility to our member-
ship and the community to
educate and advocate for our
students." said Paul Phillips,
president of the QEA

A Refresher On The Hazards Of Carbon Monoxide

Here's a refresher on the
hazards of carbon monox-
ide (CO). I'm prompted to
write this after hearing of
a recent incident. Mean-
while it's good to review,
especially with this subject
matter where CO poison-
ing is highly seasonal being
more prevalent in the colder
months. Heating systems
will now be used more fre-
quently, and idling vehicles
are more common.

Carbon monoxide (CO)
is the number one cause of
poisoning deaths in the US.
However, CO poisoning
deaths have been on the de-
cline. The reason given for
the decline is the improve-
ment in combustion devic-
es, furnaces, motor vehicles,
stoves, water heaters, etc.
Automobile incidents com-
prise '/6 the non-fire CO inci-
dents; idling vehicles are the
cause of these incidents. 2/3
of all CO exposures occur in

the home. CO exposures are
not linked to sleeping, but as
previously specified, highly
seasonal. Fatalities over
age 65 are double the rate
of the general population
{23% fatalities while \2%
of the population). There
are 2 to 3 times more deaths
in males than females. CO
production rates can be
significantly increased by
problems with combus-
tion devices, furnaces, etc,
when abnormal conditions
of operation exist.

CO is treacherous where
it is poisonous, colorless,
odorless and tasteless.
It is undetectable unless
you have the appropriate
alarmed device monitoring
your in house atmosphere.
When breathed, it enters
the lungs where it competes
with oxygen. It attaches
to the hemoglobin in the
blood 200 times faster than
oxygen causing cells to die.

POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT

Exposure can result in flu-
like symptoms ranging from
headaches, nausea, dizzi-
ness, confusion, fainting,
unconsciousness and death.

Should you suspect an
exposure to CO; get out of
the house into fresh air; call
the fire department from a
neighbor's house and seek
medical attention.

Prevention consists of ap-
propriately installed, work-
ing CO detectors on each
habitable level of a dwelling
including habitable portions
of basements and attics.
They must be located outside
bedrooms, within 10' of the
bedroom doors and within
rooms containing approved
unvented gas heaters. In an
existing home, battery oper-
ated and plug in with bat-
tery backup are acceptable.
In addition, have a qualified
technician inspect appli-
ances; check vents, flues &
chimneys for blockages &

Announce Endorsement For Phelan

1 watched with fascina-
tion, and a growing sense of
anger, the events of the City
Council's Finance Commit-
tee meeting last evening.
The councilors as a body
should be outraged at the
actions that allowed a multi-
year maintenance contract
to be signed and funds trans-
ferred from the city without
their approval. The coun-
cil originally approved the
Honeywell energy contract
without the costly main-
tenance contract and with
stipulations that would al-
low the council to monitor
the performance and execu-
tion of that energy contract.
Both Councilor Gutro and
Councilor Keenan reiterated
those stipulations last eve-
ning. The stipulations were

not heeded and the council The council should ag-

should be outraged that their gressively continue to press

conditions were ignored, for answers. Regardless of

accountable both the vendor tion, the taxpayers of the

all others who authorized the Council should remem-

such actions. This reck-
less behavior threatens the
foundation of the council,
diminishes its purpose, and
undermines the council's in-
tegrity.

For the vendor's (Honey-
well) representative to stand
before the body last evening
and refuse to answer per-
tinent questions for fear of

ber those who elected them
to serve in the first place.

City Councillor at-Large
Mike McFarland has en-
dorsed Tom Koch for a
second term as Mayor of
Quincy.

In his endorsement, Mc-
Farland stated, "1 have had
the pleasure of working with
Tom as a member of the
Quincy City Council during
his first term as Mayor and
found him to have an incred-
ible handle on the issues of
city finances, public safety,
education and the general
quality of life in the City of

Quincy and the courage to
make difficult decisions.

"Tom is both honest and
fair and has used the rela-
tionships he has developed
over his 20-year public ser-
vice career to govern the
City of Quincy effectively.
A prime example of this is
the agreement forged with
Braintree and Weymouth on
waste removal costs.

"Tom's relationship with
the city's employee unions
and retirees has saved jobs
for the employees and mil-

lions of tax dollars for the
residents of Quincy. Tom's
energy and vision along
with his ability to work with
federal and state officials
and the business community
has turned the downtown
project into reality. Tom is a
true leader.

"I have known Tom for
over 25 years and have
found him to be a person of
high ethical and moral stan-
dards and 1 look forward to
working with him over the
next two years," McFarland
said.

50% Turnout Seen Here For City Election Tuesday

Cant 'd From Paj^e I
race officially became a
two-man battle.

Money matters have
dominated the mayor's race
and have trickled down to
the ward and school com-
mittee races.

In a message to readers
in this week's Quincy Sun,
Koch said the most impor-
tant issue he would address
if re-elected is "protecting
the core services of educa-
tion and public safety and
creating new revenue and
jobs for Quincy residents
through our economic de-
velopment."

Phelan, is his message
to Quincy Sun readers, said
the most important issue he
would address is "control-
ling taxes and spending"
and offered numerous ways
that he said would "protect
taxpayers."

Besides the mayoral race,
there are contested races for
councillor in Wards 1 . 4 and
6 as well as School Commit-
tee.

Running without oppo-
sition are the city's three
councillors at-large - Jo-
seph Finn. John Keenan and
Michael McFarland. It is
believed this marks the first
election in recent memory
that the councillors at-large
are unopposed.

There are three other un-
contested races on the bal-
lot next Tuesday. Council-
lors Dan Raymondi (Ward
2), Kevin Coughlin (Ward
3) and Doug Gutro (Ward
5) are also unopposed next
Tuesday.

Voters in Ward 1 will be
asked to elect a new council-
lor. Longtime Ward 1 Coun-
cillor Leo Kelly is retiring
and is not on the ballot.

Seeking to succeed Kelly
as Ward 1 councillor are two
candidates from Houghs
Neck: Martin E. Aikens and
Margaret E. Laforest.

Lebo, age 59, of 354
Highland Ave., is director of
Career and Technical Edu-
cation for the Boston Public
Schools.

Lockwood Mullaney, age
40. of 180 Glendale Rd., is
a manager of Strategy and
Planning for Harvard Pil-
grim Health Care.

Rebecca McWilliams,
age 27, of 24 Newcomb St.,
is an architect.

Karl Roos, age 42, of
8 Park St., is employed in
sales for Sanofi-Aventis.

Profiles of all the can-
didates in contested races
appear in this issue of The
Quincy Sun. Biographical
information includes their
education, family, commu-
nity involvement and other
public service.

All candidates were also
asked to answer the ques-
tion: "What is the most
important issue you will
address if elected and how
will you address it?" The
Sun asked the candidates to
limit their responses to 250
words.

Shea accurately predict-
ed the near 30 percent turn-
out for the Sept. 22 prelimi-
nary election. That's when
16,208 of the city's 55,042
registered voters went to the
polls.

Koch and Phelan finished
one-two in the preliminary
election. Koch received
7,970 votes and Phelan re-
ceived 7,318 votes. Koch's
margin was 652 votes.

The latest numbers from
the city's Election Depart-
ment shows the number of
registered voters has in-
creased 539 since the week
before the preliminary
election. The new total is:
55,581. If Shea's prediction
is correct next Tuesday, that
means approximately 27 ,790
voters will cast ballots. That
would be an increase of
about 11,582 voters from
the preliminary election.

One sign that turnout
will be higher Tuesday:
more absentee ballots have
been requested for the Nov.

3 election compared to the
preliminarv.

"We may have requests
for 1,100 absentee ballots
(for the tinal election), in
the preliminary, there were
727 absentee ballots," Shea
said, noting those requesting
to vote via absentee ballot

are generally shut-ins, nurs
ing home residents, service
men and women and voters
traveling outside the city on
Election Day.

Absentee ballots can be
requested up until noontime
on Monday, the day be-
fore the Election. They are
counted on Election Day,

Shea said.

Polls will open at 7 a.m.
and close at 8 p.m.. Shea
said. He said he anticipates
the final vote will be tallied
by 9:45 p.m. Tuesday.

The election will cost the
city approximately $80,000,
Shea said. Expenses include
printing the ballots, election

workers and police details.

Next Tuesday's Koch-
Phelan mayoral rematch
marks only the third time
in the city's history that an
incumbent mayor who had
been defeated for re-election
subsequently ran against the
mayor who defeated him in
the next election. In those

two prior occasions, the
former incumbent could not
defeat the sitting mayor.

The last time this politi-
cal rarity occurred was three
quarters of a century ago.

In the 1932 election,
Mayor Thomas J. McGrath,
seeking a fourth term, was
defeated by Charles A. Ross

QUESTION:

The most important is-

THOMAS KOCH

sue that I will address if re-
elected is securing our great
City's future by protecting
the core services of educa-
tion and public safety and
creating new revenue and
jobs for Quincy residents
through our economic de-
velopment efforts.

While we are weather-
ing this historic economic
crisis by restoring financial
responsibility and prevent-
ing devastating cuts to our
schools, police or fire de-
partments, our long-term
vitality as a community
depends on economic de-
velopment. That's why we
have worked so hard over
the last 22 months to bring
people together and attract
new investment to Quincy.

Today, we are on the

verge of the single-largest
economic development
project in our City's his-
tory in our plans to revi-
talize Quincy Center. I his
project will mean more
than $1 billion in private
inve,stment. millions of
dollars in new tax revenue;
4,000 construction jobs;
and 7,000 permanent jobs.
As part of negotiations,
we recently reached an ac-
cord that will guarantee 25
percent of all construction
jobs on the project be set
aside for Quincy residents.
We are creating Quincy
jobs for Quincy people.

With this historic eco-
nomic development will
come the new revenue we
need to keep our teachers
in classrooms, patrol offi-
cers on the street, our fire
houses open, and our parks
and streets well-main-
tained. The time is now,
and I could not be more
confident in our City's fu-
ture.

1 am deeply privileged
to serve the City we love
as Mayor, and I respect-
fully ask for your vote on
Novembers.

QUESTION:

The most important issue
that I will address if elected
and I will address is:

"The most important is-
sue that 1 will address if I
am elected is high taxes and
wasteful spending by the
City of Quincy. As a home-
owner and taxpayer I am up-
set at the high taxes and the

minimal level of services we
receive for those dollars.

In the last few years we
all have seen our paychecks
shrink, housing values de-
cline and an uncertain fu-
ture. Yet, our taxes continue
to increase at a frightening
pace and we have very little
to show for it. Our roads and
sidewalks are crumbling,
crime has increased, and our
neighborhood schools are in
peril.

We need experience,
leadership and a strong
voice on the City Council
that will challenge the sta-
tus quo and speak up for the
working people, the taxpay-
ers of this city.

If I am elected to the City
Council for Ward 1, I will
scrutinize every line item in
the city budget and vote to
root out any wasteful spend-
ing. I will fight and vote to
cut all unnecessary spend-
ing from the budget and di-
vert those scarce tax dollars
back to public safety, road
repair and the schools.

If I am elected I will work
with others to ensure we get
the services we deserve.

QUESTION:

The one issue that has
been a constant is taxes.
While the city has made cuts
in expenses by reducing the
labor force and city depart-
ments have done their share
of taking on extra work and
handled it well, the city
faces more financial chal-
lenges ahead. I do not feel

the individual taxpayer can
continue to carry the burden
and it is essential that Quin-
cy broaden its commercial
tax base.

As I look where 1 spend
my disposable income , while
the gas stations, Stop& Shop
and Roxies get money ev-
ery week, I frequently shop
at BJ's, the Derby Street
Shops, South Shore Plaza
and the Hanover Mall and
I'd rather be spending that
money in Quincy.

Working with Street-
Works and their $1 billion
investment in our city, we
can encourage business
growth which creates con-
struction jobs and will get
many tradesmen out of the
union hall and back on the
job site, creates steady jobs
whether part time for the
stay at home parent who
may want to work while
the children are at school or
the full time jobs that give a
business the foundation to
stay strong and grow with
the city.

More businesses in our
city strengthen our econo-
my as they pay a higher rate
than homeowners and it also
disperses the financial bur-
den over a larger amount of
taxpayers.

At the December 15, 2008 City Council
Meeting, Jay Davis said he accepts full
responsibility for voting for the largest tax
increase in the city of Quincy 's history,
saying that in the June 2008 vote he
knew that the average increase would be
$550.00.

There are many good reasons to vote
for Brian Palmucci for Ward 4 City
Councilor, but the biggest is. . .

QUESTION:
Although constituent ser-
vices is the most important
day-to-day job of a Ward
Councilor, the biggest issue
facing Quincy is the same
issue I have worked tire-
lessly on for the past 6 years
- sound economic develop-
ment. Since the 1970s the
City's commercial tax base

has eroded from ^5',i to
179^, placing an increased
tax burden on homeown-
ers. Sound economic de-
velopment must be done in
concert with neighborhood
involvement, but without it
homeowners will continue
to bear a greater burden of
the City's tax base.

We have taken steps in
the right direction. Street-
Works' commitment to de-
velop downtown Quincy
must be embraced. In South-
west Quincy, BJs, Lowe's
and Fallon Ambulance have
opened or will open in the
next year generating hun-
dreds of construction jobs,
over 500 permanent jobs,
and millions of dollars in
taxes.

To address this issue, 1
am going to continue to do
what I have been doing - at-
tracting new businesses and
keeping existing ones, as
I did when 1 worked with
the owner P.V Sullivan to
keep his business in Quincy.
standing up and fighting for
a project 1 believe in.

Sound economic devel-
opment doesn't just happen,
it happens because leaders
work hard to make it hap-
pen.

BRIAN F. McNAMEE

The most important issue
i will address if elected is
how do we maintain city ser-
vices when micro and macro
economic events require us
to cut the city's budget.

One of the primary rea-
sons residential property
owners have felt an addi-
tional burden from property
taxes is due to the declines
in real estate taxes collected
from commercial taxpayers.
At one time, the city collect-
ed 20 percent of its real es-
tate taxes from business. In
recent years, due to declines
in the commercial property

base. To accomplish this I
have an obligation to make
sure we are successful in re-
vitalizing the downtown. To
this end, 1 am committed to
making sure Street Works is
aligned with credible devel-
opment partners.

In revitalizing the down-
town we will need to create
discrete phases of develop-
ment as well as define mile-
stone events. With such met-
rics in place we will be able
to measure our progress and
make adjustments as neces-
sary. Going forward we are
going to need to know when
the MEPA (Massachusetts
Environmental Protection
Agency) application will
be filed. One might argue
this should be known be-
fore the City Council rati-
fies the Land Disposition
Agreement. We are also go-

request and budget increase
that is proposed. I will work
hard to hold the line on taxes
and fees and to demand ac-
countability for every bud-
get item.

Quincy residents want
an open accessible govern-
ment and a City Council that
plays its role as a check and
balance within city govern-
ment. I will ask the ques-
tions that Quincy taxpayers
want and need answered.

The Council must step
up to its responsibility on

budgets and spending. Ev-
ery councillor must take the
time to know what they are
really voting for. Not one
vote should be taken to au-
thorize additional spending
or fees until the Council has
thoroughly considered the
long and short term ramifi-
cations of each proposal .

State local aid has al-
ready been cut significantly
and more cuts are on the
way next year. Our city also
needs serious long term fi-
nancial planning to ensure
that our children's educa-
tion, senior programs, pub-
lic safety and critical com-
munity services do not fall
through the cracks.

I would propose estab-
lishing a permanent Finan-
cial Forecasting Committee
made up of elected officials,
business representatives and
citizens which would con-
sider all spending and bud-
get forecasts to make sure
Quincy is prepared for any
future circumstance.

To the Citizens of Quincy

TTigre has been a lot of discussion lately about the City of Quincy Emergency dispatch system. I am writing to every one of you to inform you, educate you, and put your minds
at ease.

First, I will tell you that the Quincy Emergency 911 system has been recognized throughout the state as the bet system that there is. It was the model that other municipalities such
as Weymouth and Braintree adopted when they designed their systems. It has served the citizens of Quincy well, and has saved many lives.

When the State of Massachusetts mandated all municipalities adopt the Statewide E-911 system, the City of Quincy in cooperation with Quincy Firefighters investigated all of
the E-911 systems that were available. While investigating the different systems, we found a disturbing trend; response times for fire departments throughout Massachusetts whose
municipalities had adopted the available systems were drastically increasing. When seconds mean lives, these delays could easily mean the difference between life and death. When
these facts were shown to the City, it was realized the citizens of Quincy could not be adequately protected by the proposed systems. It was then the Quincy Fire Fighters Association
drafted legislation that would allow Quincy to operate a duel E-91 1 dispatch system to insure the safety needs of the citizens of Quincy would be met.

Unfortunately, before this legislation was signed into law, Quincy was made to install one of the existing E-9n systems; the results, as you may remember, were tragic. When
this change took effect, we found that many emergency calls to which we usually responded were not being sent to us. We would find out about the emergency calls at the same time
everyone listening on their home police scanner found out. This caused the Quincy Fire Department to have long delays in our response time to those citizens in need of our care.
The final straw was when the Quincy Fire Department was not notified of an emergency medical call for a cardiac arrest in the senior citizens building at 80 Clay Street. The Fire
Department was not sent to that emergency and a person died. With help at the Wollaston Fire Station less than one minute away, it took emergency medical personnel over 10 minutes
to arrive at the scene. This tragedy solidified the Quincy Firefighters argument, and thanks to Quincy's Legislative Delegation, the legislative process was expedited and the bill was
signed into law rectifying the problem and granting the City of Quincy permission to install the first duel E-911 system in Massachusetts. Once the Statewide E-911 Board was the
success of the Quincy system they allowed passage of a similar law allowing all Massachusetts cities and towns to adopt the Quincy system.

Since, 1998, the Quincy Fire Department has monitored all 91 1 calls that are made in the City of Quincy. By monitoring the calls we are able to dispatch our apparatus immediately
resulting in the Quincy Fire Department being the first on scene emergency personnel, often while the call taker is still gathering information. This has resulted in numerous lives saved,
babies delivered, victims extricated from auto accidents enabling ambulances to immediately transport the victims to a hospital. In addition, we are also responding to fires faster for
rescue situations as we had done earlier this year. As it has been stated by every Fire Chief since 1998 as well as Police Chief Keenan, "The City of Quincy has the best Emergency
Dispatch system in the state."

Bill Phelan has stated that if elected, he will merge the fire and police dispatch operations to save money. He stated the current system is less safCj redundant, and more expensive
than the methods most cities and towns use. In reality, by merging the two dispatch centers there will be no savings. Back in 1997 the approximate cost of just merging the two systems
was three quarters of a million dollars. At today's prices we are looking at well over one million dollars to perform the same task. In addition, Quincy Fire personnel will still be
assigned to dispatch fire apparatus, the result would cost the taxpayers more money for a lesser system. As far as the other cities and towns cited by Mr. Phelan, many are using the
same system as Quincy, while other municipalities are too small to have their own system and depend on other agencies to field their calls. Finally, the whole idea of Enhanced 91 1
established by the Statewide E-911 System was redundancy, to insure those people who call for help would be heard. It is absurd for Mr. Phelan to want to remove the very premise
around which the E-91 1 System was designed. If you want to go backwards in time this is how you do it.

The Quincy Firefighters stand with the past three Fire Chiefs, the present Fire Chief and Police Chief stating that this is the safest form of dispatching there is. We are the
professionals who provide public safety to the citizens of Quincy. We are the ones that have fought for your safety and your protection for years. Why would Bill Phelan, if elected,
not heed the advice of these public safety professionals in their mission to protect you?

Mr. Phelan has also decried keeping Quincy Rescue 1 and Ladder 2 out of service due to manpower cuts, but it was Mr. Phelan who cut $ 1 ,000,000.00 out of the Quincy Fire
Department budget a few years earlier, effectively putting Rescue 1 out of service. His actions were punitive as he gave the money cut from the Fire Department to another public
safety department, which in turn returned the $1 million back to the City at the end of the year. Cutting Rescue 1 as well as other positions put the safety of the citizens of Quincy as
well as the Quincy Fire Fighters at risk. You must let Mr. Phelan know that your safety is not the area to be playing politics.

Do not be fooled by Bill Phelans' statements. The Quincy Firefighters have always been there watching out for your safety, protecting you from harm, and placing our
lives between you and danger. We have been there when you needed help; we will continue to be there to protect and serve you in the future; and we will always be there to
tell you the truth.

Maureen Glynn is NOT another Brian McNamee
and 4 other good reasons to make her our Ward 6 Councilor

1.

2.

Maureen Glynn pays property taxes in Quincy (unlike her opponent.)

She understands what Ward 6 residents are going through to keep up with the rising taxes and fees,

Maureen Glynn will NOT be a rubber stamp for every spending request and budget increase.
She will hold the line on taxes and fees for all of us and demand accountability for every budget
Item and prevent future Honeywell Contract rip-offs.

3. Maureen Glynn will fight to relieve the traffic nightmare on the Neponset Bridge.

As an average citizen, she has been speaking up to state and federal authorities for 3 years about it
(while the current Ward 6 councilor was missing in action) She will never give up on it.

4.

Maureen Glynn will actually return your phone call if you need your Councilor's help
(even if you aren't one of her opponent's favored few.) And she will stand by Ward 6 residents
at city hearings whenever you ask her to be there.

5. No, Maureen Glynn is NOT another Brian McNamee. She will be a hardworking,
responsive and respectful Councilor who will put people in Ward 6 first!

Marty Aikens ^^ Ward One Councilor ^ On YOUR Side

Dear Ward One Neighbor,

Ward One in Quincy is a very special place. I have had the privilege
of growing up here, buying my first house here and getting involved
in our wonderful community with so many of our neighbors.

I am running to be your next Ward One Councilor because I think we
need a fresh voice and someone with new ideas who understands
the needs of our residents. I share your concern that the City of
Quincy should be doing a much better job for its citizens and
instead of raising our taxes, our elected representatives should
instead be tightening the belt of city government.

I will be an effective voice for your priorities and I respectfully ask for
your vote on November 3.

The most important is-

I have a 3 -part platform for

Aim High calls for us to
set an ambitious goal for our
district. Modest goals, like

We should also capitalize on
the cultural and language
learning made possible by
our diverse city.

Invest Wisely calls for us
to identify, evaluate, pilot,
and then implement at full
scale the best, proven ideas
in educational improve-
ment. We invest $90M in
the school department today
and ~$30M more indirectly
through the city budget. If
we invest wisely, we will
improve education, attract
and retain more parents, and
raise taxpayer confidence in
the commitment we make to
schools.

I am focused on mak-
ing Quincy schools more
competitive among parents'
K-12 education options.
That said, I also subscribe
to the belief that "if it isn't

Dear Ward Four Voters,

In has been an honor to serve as your Ward Four Councilor for the last six
years. I have worked hard every day to live up to that honor. During the last
six months I have knocked on every door in Ward Four and mailed or
delivered more than 15,000 pieces of campaign literature focusing on my
qualifications, experience and record of commitment to this ward and
community - all in an effort to earn your vote, not by focusing on why the
other guy doesn't deserve it, but by working hard to convince you that I do.

nication, the Quincy Public
Schools website should be
opened for interactive use
with email blasts and a com-
prehensive event calendar.
All subcommittee meetings
need to be televised; and
videos should be published
online. Sending home prin-
ted announcements is not
always effective. Automa-
ted phone calls are a great
improvement, but a choice
for email messaging would
further improve communi-
cation. It is paramount that
we focus on upgrading our
contact methods to reach out
to our school community
using 21st century techno-
logy.

Like today's students. I
am highly sensitive to digi-

tal interaction, f rely on te-
levision and the internet for
communication and news.
I will help bridge the gap
between our students and
the technology decisions
the School Committee must
make impacting how they
learn and communicate.

Second, as an architect. 1
bring real -life school design
experience to share with the
School Committee as we be-
gin work on the new Central
Middle School. This buil-
ding has the potential to be
even more energy-efficient
than Quincy High School. 1
am committed to helping us
complete it on time and on
budget.

Third, as a sustainable
design professional, 1 am
an advocate for state grants
to cover the cost of solar
panels for all of our school
buildings. This will reduce
our electric costs and allow
us to redirect building ener-
gy funds to better use.

I have focused goals for
achieving quality results for
the next generation on our
School Committee. I ask
for your vote on November
3rd.

The most important issue

KARL ROOS

that I will address if elected
is the budget and fighting
hard to maintain the level
of service the students re-
ceive in the Quincy Public
Schools.

The fiscal pressure on the
schools will be tremendous
State revenues are down,
there is a threat of diverting
funds from the schools to a
charter school, and contrac-
tual raises are pending.

The key to success in the
Quincy Public School is to
maintain the lo\\est student
to teacher ratio possible in
the core subjects. We will
be faced with difficult deci-
sions on what to keep and

how to wring more savings
out of the budget

When faced with difficult
decisions it is important to
have someone who under-
stands the sch(M)ls and has
skin in the game when mak-
ing the decisions Currently
there are only 2 members of
the Sch(M)l Committee with
children in the schools I
would like to see a better
balance on the Sch(x>l Com-
mittee I am the only new
candidate with children in
the Quincy Public Schools
Fve had a child in the
schools for the last 9 years
and will have a child in the
schools for the next 9 years
I understand the schools and
will personally feel the im-
pact of any decisions

I'll provide practical and
creative solufions Whether
it"s advocating stncter en-
forcement of residencv re-
quirements for students, or
more aggressive recycling
in the schools for cost sav-
ings. I will always work

Ward 1 Councilor

What issues do you want your Councilor advocating for?

^ Downtown Development - Bringing new business to downtown will create
opportunities for jobs, tax revenue and return Quincy to it's South Shore prominence,

^ Public Safety/Drugs - Work with law enforcement, educate parents and children
and raise public awareness for prevention of drug abuse.

^ Public Works - From gas mains to sewer systems to road conditions, Quincy's aging
infrastructure needs substantial updates.

^ Promoting Environmental Awareness - Living on the waterfront, Margaret
appreciates our coastal environment and wants Quincy to be a "greener" city.

^ Preserving Quincy's History - At age 12, Margaret brought her idea for a
shipbuilding museum to city state and national political delegations and, after 7 years
of determination, returned the USS Salem to her home port. Over 20 years later, she
is still active in the historic preservation of Quincy.

As a fifth generation Ward One resident, Margaret brings commitment,
knowledge, enthusiasm and a proven track record of getting the job done.

Vote For A Competent Candidate

Quincy has been my
bona tide voting address
for over 30 years. In the last
20 years, 1 spent less than a
month here on account of
my vocation. Voting comes
in a close second place af-
ter religious observations in
my family. We monitor our
political landscape like our
vital signs. Both having a
direct beanng on our health.
My uncle spent three de-
cades as a court officer in the
General Court. He and a few
other officers had the gall
to neglect voting one year
and a senator from Quincy
/eprimanded them. I never
met Senator Mclntyre, but
his name is still recognized
and respected. At least one
thing Mclntyre and 1 had in
common though; we both
possessed Honorable Dis-
charges from the United
States Marines.

I was employed in Mon-
tana about 15 years ago. An
employer for a company
I worked for had a lot of
questions about John Ad-
ams, my first day on the job.
John Adams, the great advo-
cate. Defender of the British
Soldiers accused of mur-
dering some Bostonians.
Needless to say, he wasn't
particularly esteemed for his
defense. Except those who
valued the higher esteem of
honor. My employer hoped
to visit Quincy some day on
account of one of historical
heroes. Adams' reputation
still reflected on Quincy
over 200 years later. This
'observation was before John
McCullough's remarkable
biography on Adams.

Senator Mike Morrissey
asserted a couple of months
ago that, "There's a lot of
anger out there." Possibly at-

tributed to the current Great
Recession. Hardly any of
us are unaware of someone
who lost their job, savings,
family, or all of the above.
Yes, there is a lot of anger
out there.

No man can predict the
future. Nor can he jump in
the same river twice. We
have what appear to be only
two candidates running for
mayor, both illustrating con-
duct that would be best left
for a junior high elecfion.
Rather than assert their po-
litical aptitude, to at least
appear to have some politi-
cal prudence, Quincy "s citi-
zens are trying not to gauge
who is the better of the two,
but who is the least likely to
lower the value system the
most.

All the bickering is only
fostering a climate for future
conduct in our city. Quincy
seems to be beyond condi-
tioning of tolerating conduct
that reflects on Quincy and
lowers the value of every-
thing from the school sys-
tem to real estate. We can
accept that 'to the victor, the
spoils," but when we tolerate
officers in law enforcement
shooting off their pistols and
letting dating partners drive
their patrol cars around; or,
leading a high speed car
chase by a State Trooper and
then allowing that person
to become a police officer
begs decency. Next it will
be who the new high school
should be named after. As
if a new school is going to
raise education standards. It
wouldn't! Education begins
at home. Tolerance of sinis-
ter values evolves to encour-
agement.

The ideal candidate
shouldn't have to canvass

for votes. The ideal candi-
date would be called by the
voters. What appear to be
only two candidates running
for mayor is really nothing
more than the fallacy of the
power of literacy. There is
one more choice. Voters can
assert their voting preroga-
tive by choosing 'none of the
above,' and write in some-
one they feel more confident
representing our city.

Quincy needs leadership.
Not someone who can dig up
more dirt on his adversary.
If we have to raise taxes af-
ter all other prudent options
have been exhausted then
raise taxes. There is no free
lunch-old story. We'll sur-
vive. Quincy wants some-
one who can nurture and
cultivate high standards and
exercise prudence. The stan-
dards that include people to
spend disposable money on
local business. Or feel they
are getting a big bang for
their buck investing in real
estate in a city that has hon-
orable value and standards
and an education system
that has boasting rights.

I am not ready to concede
that all the honor and higher
value system that John Ad-
ams advocated is buried in
a crypt in the First Parish
Church in Quincy Square.

Quincy 's voters should
never lower their values to
feel as if they have to ask
for higher standards and
honor, we need to demand
it. Vote for a candidate that
is competent and deserving
of being honored with the
position of mayor, not nec-
essarily from what appear to
be the only options.

Davis Responds To Palmucci

In response to Brian Pal-
mucci's press release which
ran in last week's Quincy
Sun:

I made my decision to
run a positive campaign re-
alizing that although I chose
not to attack my opponent,
there was no guarantee that
I would not be attacked. In
his most recent attack, Mr.
Palmucci depicts me as a
person who, in the midst of
difficult- financial times for
us all, would stick it to my
constituents, to local busi-
ness owners, to my friends,
family, neighbors and co-
workers by choosing to
raise their taxes rather than
looking for and eliminating
millions of dollars in waste
from a city budget.

If Mr. Palmucci was
aware of millions of dollars
of waste in the city budget,
then where was he when it
mattered - during the pub-
lic hearing on the budget
where and when he had ev-
oy opportunity to stand up,
point to the specific aieas
of waste and prevent a tax

increase? Not only did he
not speak up at the public
hearing, he didn't attend it.
Now, three weeks before an
election, one year after the
tax increase, he has all the
answers.

I voted for the FY 09 bud-
get; I could have done what
elected officials in other
communities have done in
order to deal with a global
recession and massive cuts
in federal and state aid. I
could have cut even deeper
into what we had already
cut- voted to eliminate
school transportation, extra
curricular programs, trash
pick up, close fire stations,
libraries, lay off teachers,
police, public works, pub-
lic health employees - make
people pay out of pocket for
the things their tax dollars
used to pay for and then run
for reelection boasting that I
didn't vote to raise taxes. It
would have been the smart
pditical move. It would
have also been self-serving,
deceptive and irreqxmsible.
I cast my vote along widi

eight other City Councilors
and the Mayor; I publicly
stood up, explained the rea-
sons behind it, and took re-
sponsibility for it, but not
because I am oblivious to,
apathetic about or tolerant of
waste, but because the ser-
vices that would have had to
be cut are the very ones that
affect the public safety, pub-
lic welfare and public health
of every resident of this city
every day.

In over 15,000 pieces of
campaign literature, numer-
ous ads and press releases,
this is the first time I have
mentioned my opponent's
name or referred to him
in any way. I have striven
from the start to run a cam-
paign based exclusively on
my own qualifications, re-
cord and experience. I want
to earn your vote- not by fo-
cusing on why the other guy
doesn't deserve it, but by
wcHidng hard to coavince
you that I do.

Ward 4 City Councilor

The Houghs Neck Com-
munity Council wishes to
extend our sincere apprecia-
tion to all of the businesses
and volunteers who helped
make the new Harold and
Priscilla LitUe Seaside Park
at Brill Field such an amaz-
ing project. Especially Ka-
Boom!, who awarded us the
grant and to The Home De-
pot for funding the grant.

The new playground is
dedicated to Harold and
Priscilla Littie a husband
and wife who dedicated
themselves to the improve-
ment of Houghs Neck and
for their service to the youth.
Houghs Neck is blessed for
the efforts of so many in-
cluding Harold and Priscilla
who make Houghs Neck
such a great place to live.

At the playground there
are several memorials made
by several families to "lost"
boys who loved growing
up in Houghs Neck. The
names include: William "B"
Dunn, Jr.; John & Robert
"Bob" Bnll, for whom the
field is named for; Michael
J. Kane; Richard "Ricky"
Miller, Jr.; Daniel A. Mor-
rell, grandson to Harold and
Priscilla, Chris "Whitey"
White. In addition, there are
three benches that were do-
nated by Jim Dunn of Manet
Contracting, which are dedi-
cated to his sister Claire L.
"Dunn" Hynes and cousins
Richard "Ricky" Miller and
William "B" Dunn, Jr.

Many businesses were in-
strumental in the success of
the playground, none more
than Manet Contracting who
donated labor, materials and
equipment to make the con-
struction of the playground
go so smoothly. At the be-
ginning of the project Jim
Dunn, owner of Manet Con-
tracting was there to help
with the dismantiing of the
old Tot Lot. Without Jim's
expertise and specialized
tools our team of volunteers
would not have been able to

get the job done. Leading
up to the playground build,
Manet Contracting removed
40 yards of old sand and
dirt and provided our build
team with a fifty-by-fifty
foot lot for us to build the
new playground. If that was
not enough, on the prepara-
tion day, Manet Contracting
provided a Bobcat for drill-
ing and digging the 100 or
so holes that were needed
for the new fence, stage,
signposts and playground.
Throughout the project Jim
Dunn and his company were
instrumental in getting the
job done. Thanks.

We wish to thank the
businesses and individuals
that helped to feed our army
of volunteers on the prepa-
ration day and build day.
We thank Wendy Connors
for treating us to an incred-
ible spread of home cooked
gourmet food for breakfast
and lunch, which included
homemade granola, eggs
Benedict, home fnes, and
macaroni and cheese. Thank
you to The Houghs Neck
Congregational Church for
donating a wonderfully hot
breakfast on the build day
that was amazing with baked
treats, scrambled eggs and
sausages. We thank Sher-
riff Michael Bellottii for
providing the hot lunch on
build day, which included
hot dogs, hamburgers, sau-
sages and drinks. In addi-
tion, we thank Hannaford's
Supermarket, Roxies, Stop
and Shop for their donations
of cups, potato salad, plates
and napkins. Without these
donations we would have
never been able to gather
such a large group of volun-
teers. Fratelli's Pastry Shop
provided desert treats and
Dunkin Donuts provided
donations of hot coffee and
donuts on the prep and build
day.

In addition, we had tre-
mendous support from the
City of Quincy. At the be-

ginning of the project we re-
ceived guidance from May-
or Thomas Koch; review
and approval from the Park
Board; legal help from Jim
Timmins, City Solicitor; the
City DPW, John Sullivan
with help on trash manage-
ment and recycling and
from the Park Department,
Kristen Powers for help on
all aspects from project in-
ception to the completion
and QFD Safety Officer, Lt.
Peter O'Hare of the Quincy
Fire Department who was at
the build day manning a first
aid station.

We also wish to thank
Black Diamond Fence for
the help with installation of
the new fence and to help us
salvage and re-use the en-
tire existing fence. Thanks
to the Houghs Neck Garden
Club for their embracing the
project and designing and
installing the beautiful but-
terfly garden and landscape
beds. Thanks to the Ather-
ton Hough School Staff and
Children for their hard work
on our murals and donation.
Thanks to Joe Brill for so-
liciting enough raffle prizes
that we were able to hand
out over 50 gift bags to the
volunteers, which contained
prizes such as autographed
baseballs, gift certificates,
t-shirts, books and much
more. Louis Crossing donat-
ed restaurant gift certificates
towards the raffle prizes.

And finally thanks to
the army of volunteers who
helped us on the day of the
build, there were nearly 200
of you! We appreciate what
you've done for the youth of
Houghs Neck, go down any
day and see the playground
after school and you'll see
for yourself, the playground
has been packed with chil-
dren from the day it was
opened.

Thank you very much!

Community Council

Group: Track Flooding Not Addressed

We would like to address
a few issues regarding "DEP
Approve Track Plan" in the
10/15/09 issue of The Sun.
The DEP issued a Supersed-
ing Order of Conditions. Mr.
Timmins states for your ar-
ticle that the DEP says there
will be no flooding in the
area. Nothing could be fur-
ther from the truth. The DEP
does not address the flood-
ing at all . It states the project
is safe for the wetlands.

About the flooding. The
city added a drain pipe to
the project along with the
Conservation Committee
from Quincy. This was add-
ed to the plans to appease
neighbors who spoke out
against the i^ans. It was de-
signed to drain flooding and
a swampy area behind their
homes. When our appeal
was filed the City removed

this from the project. It was
not part of the original plan
and they knew it would not
fly with the DEP. Unfortu-
nately, some neighbors still
believe it is part of the plan.
During a public meet-
ing held at QHS last year,
the engineer in charge of
the project was pressed
about the flooding, he went
to great lengths to explain
several things to us. First,
the material used for the
track could tolerate being
in standing water with no
effect on the track itself.
Next, annual flooding at the
Framingham State Track
from the Sudbury River
was explained. No prob-
lem. The Fire Department
c(Hnes down after the flood
and hoses the deMs off the
track. Does this sound like a
|rfan confident about flood-

ing issues? We wonder what
the Fire Department would
think of this.

The cost is the next issue.
One of the conditions is that
an Environmental Monitor
be on site when the work is
within 100 feet of the buffer
zone, this involves the whole
project. Another condition is
that a wetland professional
be on site during the whole
replication portion and sub-
mit reports to the DEP five
different times as well as at
the end of each growing sea-
son. This isn't going to add
to the cost? The destination
of any materials removed
firom the site (including fill
and loam) will be disposed
of and records kept for the
DEP.

Why He's With Marty Aikens

Back in March or April
when Marty Aikens an-
nounced that he was running
for Quincy Ward 1 Coun-
cilor seat, the talk around
Houghs Neck began with
"What has Marty done for
the community?"

1 wanted to write and list
Marty's involvement not
only in Houghs Neck and
Quincy but all over Massa-
chusetts. Marty didn't want
it done; 1 honored his re-
quest and dropped the idea.

Marty and 1 shared grow-
ing up in Houghs Neck; I
have known Marty for near-
ly 45 years.

We also shared in doing

many community projects
or activities in Quincy, most
of which Marty will not let
me share. Why? Because
that was not the purpose of
doing them.

I can share this one,
one that made a difference
in the lives of many of the
younger Quincy residents.
In the 1980's, Marty, myself
and about 20 other Quincy
members of IBEW Local
103 join in on the lighting of
Quincy 's football stadium.
The lighting was done by a
large community effort; the
night the lights were turned
on was a proud monument
in Quincy 's History. Youth

sports teams form every part
of Quincy were on the field
as the lights got brighter.

We had no idea that our
daughters would be playing
soccer for Quincy High un-
der those light years later.

When 1 think of the work
done on that field by Marty
and everyone else involved,
1 think of the Margaret
Mead quote "A small group
of thoughtful people could
change the world. Indeed,
it's the only thing that ever
has."

That's why, I'm with
Marty.

Why She's Voting For Brian Palmucci

I have lived in Ward 4 for
28 years. I am outraged, as
are many of my neighbors,
at the way Councillor Jay
Davis handled the unsight-
ly billboard located in our
neighborhood.

The abutters to the prop-
erty that houses this mon-
strosity were not properly
notified, as is required by
law. Jay Davis should have
known what kind of contro-
versy this illegal billboard
would create and take the
time to notify residents, but
he did not.

Earlier this year I at-
tended a hearing regarding
the billboard at the Outdoor
Advertising Board in Bos-
ton. Brian Palmucci, Coun-
cillor Raymondi, Council-
lor Keenan, and many city
officials and residents were
in attendance to voice their
opposition. Jay Davis was
noticeably absent. It is Jay
Davis' job to represent ALL
of his constituents! Why
didn't he attend the hearing?
Is he a supporter of the bill-
board? It is my opinion that
Jay Davis was instrumental

in getting this illegal bill-
board erected.

My family and I are sup-
porting Brian Palmucci for
Ward 4 Councillor. I find
Brian to be an honest, dedi-
cated, hardworking candi-
date who takes the time to
hear the concerns of all resi-
dents.

Brian has promised to
involve all Ward 4 residents
on issues concerning all of
us, and I am confident that
he will.

Why She Supports Jay Davis

1 have lived in Ward 4
my entire life. 1 live in the
same neighborhood as Jay
Davis. I have watched him
come and go for a very long
time now, and while I know
people disagree on issues
during a campaign, for Jay's
opponent to picture him as
lazy and uncaring is ridicu-
lous. He's constamly off to
work, off to meetings, off
to coaching some sport or
another, volunteering some-
where or organizing some-

thing.

Say what you will, you
will never convince anylxxly
who sees Jay come and go
that he is lazy, and you will
never convince those of us
that know him best that he
is uncanng. If every chanty,
every organization, every
community center, every
program, every individual
in this city who has bene-
fited from Jay's canng were
to be listed. 1 really think it
would fill an entire page in

the newspap>er

It goes beyond that,
it's checking in on elderly
neighbors or neighbors liv-
ing alone, clearing out their
walkways and dnveways
after a snowstorm, and run-
mng their errands, spending
time with people who look
forward to some company
Jay is always doing the littie
things that matter, the little
things-things that lazy and
uncanng people don't do

Thanks City, Koch For Housing Help

To the City of Quincy
and Mayor Koch's Office,

I am writing to thank the
City of Quincy and Mayor
Koch's Office for helping
my four children and me.

I've been a resident of
Quincy for 18 years. The
house on Dale Avenue that
we had lived in for 15 of
those years is being lost to
foreclosure.

The kids and I have tried
to hang on as long as possi-
ble but in the end I could not
keep up with the mortgage
and the bank prevailed. We
are heartbroken over losing
our house. I've been check-
ing all available resources
for housing help but the
growing number of needy

families has put demands
above supply. I talked to ev-
ery possible source for help
but to no avail and I did not
know where to turn.

I was very much afraid
about finding shelter. And
then the City of Quincy and
Mayor Koch stepped in to
help. We are so grateful.

For the last four years I
have been working two and
sometimes three part-time
jobs at all hours, trying to
keep up with my family's
expenses and housing costs.
This opportunity through
the City of Quincy gives me
housing security and stabil-
ity for the next ten months.
In that time I'll be searching
to find a job that can take

advantage of my Northeast-
em University bachelor's
degree and my first line
management experiences. 1
hope to find an opportunity
and possible benefits and
I'm ready to start at the bot-
tom to build a career for the
future.

I am grateful to the City
of Quincy and hopeful that
Mayor Koch will be suc-
cessful in his campaign for
re-election for the Mayor's
Office this November.

I will be encouraging all
of my friends and family to
get out and vote for Mayor
Koch.

Thank you Mayor Koch.

Ward 4 Forum Provided A 'Revelation'

I attended the Ward 4

evening hosted by the ward

I was delighted with the
honest and frank discussion
of the issues that affect the

One particular revela-
tion came from City Coun-
cil President Jay Davis. Jay
was asked whether he still

accepted responsibility for
the largest tax increase in
Quincy's history, as he had
at the time of his vote

I was pleasantly sur
pnsed by his honesty. He
said that the city council was
"robbing the future" to keep
our property tax rate artifi-
cially low during the elec-
tion cycle. This revelation is
shocking and outrageous to

me as a taxpayer.

I find it unconscionable
that, then Ma\i>r William
Phelan manipulated the
City's finances dunniz an

Why He's Voting For Karl Roos

I'm writing this to those
Quincy voters who are se-
niors or single or whose
children have long ago left
home (those of us with no
kids in the Quincy Public
School system). If you are
like me you probably dis-
missed the race for school
committee as "something
that doesn't actually con-
cern me."

At least that's what 1
thought and therefore paid
littie attention to those dedi-
cated people who a running
for a seat. I was more into
the mayor's race to be con-
cerned with the school com-
mittee.

Then 1 met Karl Roos.
one of the candidates for
School Committee, and af-
ter listening to him. 1 real-
ized that 1 should indeed be
concerned. More than one

quarter of the city's budget
deals with matters of edu-
cation. That's a substantial
amount of taxpayer money!
Yes. 1 want the best for the
kids of Quincy but equally 1
want the most for my money.
1 don't want the money used
frivolously on the latest "it's
for the children" gimmick.

1 want a committee that
will weigh the needs of the
kids with the realities of
the available money. I want
committee members who
see all sides of the prob-
lem of educating the kids
in these times of tough bud-
gets. 1 want members who
understand and will adhere
to fiscal restraints ad not go
off half-cocked with halt-
baked ideas

Since Karl Ruox has three
kids in the Quiik\ School

HEALTH and FITNESS

From Milton Hospital

Halloween
Safety Smarts

QMC Hosts International
Healthcare Course On Qualilty

The leaves are chang-
ing, the air is cooling and
the candy is flying off the
shelves.

That can only mean one
thing - Halloween is just
around the comer. Although
this night is dedicated to fun
and fright, it also needs to
include a good measure of
smarts.

Here's a great list of smart
tips from Milton Hospital to
keep you and your children
safe this Halloween.
Street Smarts:

• Obey all traffic laws.

• Cross at the lights, stay
in the cross walks, and look
both ways before crossing.

• Walk on the sidewalks,
and avoid driveways and
running across lawns.

• Both adults and chil-
dren should carry a flash-
light, glow stick, or wear
reflectors.

• As a general rule, adults
should accompany elemen-
tary school aged children.

• Older kids trick-or-treat-
ing without adults should al-
ways travel in a group in a
familiar neighborhood.

• Only approach well -lit
houses with no obstructions
to the door.

Costume Smarts:

• Make sure costumes are
well-fitting with no hanging
fabric.

• Avoid oversized masks
that impair vision.

• Props like swords
and scythes should have
smoothed edges.

• Wear sturdy, well -fitting

footwear.

• Add reflective tape to
a costume's trim or acces-
sories.

• Always select flame-
resistant materials.

Treat Smarts:

• Do not allow children
to eat any treat until it is ex-
amined by a trusted adult.

• Provide a healthy snack
before treating to stave off
hunger and reduce the temp-
tation to snack on treats be-
fore they've been inspected.

• Never enter a house or
apartment building when
collecting treats.

• Do not offer or allow
your children to take perish-
able or unwrapped treats.

• Consider offering non-
food treats like stickers and
pencils.

• Host a neighborhood
party to provide an alterna-
tive option to trick-or-treat-
ing.

• Do not over-buy candy
to avoid "sugar shock" for
the month of November.
Remember to keep plenty of
healthy snacks in the house,
too!

• This year, Halloween
occurs on a Saturday night,
which poses another level
of challenges with adult par-
ties, j)erhaps accompanied
by alcohol . Be sure to have
your tricksters off the streets
by 7:30 p.m.

Be safe, be smart and
have fun this Halloween!

HOLDING TOO MUCH SWAY

Excessive inward curvature

of the lower back, icnown as

"lordosis" and more commonly

as "swayback," is a frequent

cause of lower-back pain. While

lordosis can be traced to spinal

problems that are present at birth.

the condition can also be caused

by excessive weight, pregnancy,

and sitting for prolonged periods.

Thus, desk workers and otherwise

sedentary individuals should bear

in mind that, as their bodies adapt

to a constant seated position, some

muscles shorten and stiffen and

others get stretched and weaken.

The resultant imbalance leads

to lordosis. To avoid and correct

this imbalance, those faced with

lordosis are encouraged tQ sit less,

stretch and exercise more, and visit

the chiropractor for treatment that

will result in improved posture.

If you do h^e a serious spinal
ciffve, make sure to research your

treatment options carefully. Our
goal is to help you and your
family achieve optimal health
through natural chiropractic care.
At the FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CHIROPRACTIC, our
goal is to understand our patients
and their needs. Whether
you're suffering from asthma,
headaches, backaches, neck/arm/
shoulder pain, low back/leg pain,
numbness, injury on the job,
or whiplash, call 617.472.4220

PS. Lordosis stretches and
weakens the abdominal muscles,
which places an inordinate amount
of stress on the muscles of the lower
back, resulting in lower-back pain

One Flu Shot
...or Two?

Confused about whether
to get a flu shot this year?
You're not alone. The flu has
been all over the news, and
some of the "facts" don't
match, depending where
you get your information.

There are two versions of
the flu right now: the season-
al garden-variety that comes
around every year, and the
swine flu, also called HlNl
flu. There are slightly differ-
ent symptoms for both, with
severity ranging from mild
to severe . There are two dif-
ferent flu shots, too, one for
each type. Just getting a sea-
sonal flu shot won't cover
you for the HlNl flu, and
vice versa.

The swine flu vaccine
naysayers have been busy,
putting out information that
might not be true. There's
even a question about who
really needs a swine flu
shot. (Do seniors really have
a built-in immunity to it?)
But it's possible to get cor-
rect information. The U.S.
Department of Health and
Human Services has a com-
prehensive Web site with
all sorts of facts about the
seasonal and HlNl flus and

vaccines at www.flu.gov.
Also check the Centers for
Disease Control and Preven-
tion's site: www.cdc.gov.

Should you have shots
for one or both types? That's
a question you need to ask
your doctor, and he or she
will decide based on your
health and personal medical
history.

For locations near you to
get a flu shot, go to www.
flu.gov and scroll all the
way to the bottom to "Use
Locator." Or use the locator
at www.flucliniclocator.org.
Another site, at www.finda-
flushot.com, has a reminder
feature.

Meanwhile, wash your
hands frequently. Carry a
small bottle of hand sani-
tizer in your pocket when
you go out. Use the sanitizer
wipes at the grocery store to
clean the handle of the cart
before you touch it. Don't be
around people who are sick.
Stay healthy: Get enough

rest and good nutrition.

Interstitial

Cystitis Causes

Bladder Pain

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I am writing to ask if you
would give me information
on interstitial cystitis. I was
told I had this after I had
a polyp removed from my
bladder. I know it has to do
with the lining of the bladder
wall. What causes it? What's
the treatment? Does it get
worse?- J. M.

ANSWER: Interstitial cys-
titis is also known as painful
bladder syndrome. It's a fairly
common condition that is com-
monly misdiagnosed. It affects
more women than men. It oc-
curs at any age, but typically,
the onset is around age 40.

Frequently, a woman has
symptoms for years and years
and is told she has repeated
bladder infections. Antibiot-
ics, however, provide no relief.
Trips to the bathroom are nu-
merous, and nighttime urination
disrupts sleep. Bladder pain can
be severe. Urination often re-
lieves the pain temporarily. In-
tercourse also can be painful.

One explanation says the
protective covering of the
bladder lining has thinned or
has disappeared, and urine ir-
ritants come in contact with
the sensitive bladder lining to
produce pain. How this comes
about is something that isn't
known with certainty.

Symptoms can get worse,
but treatments exist. One is the
oral medicine Elmiron. Ami-
triptyline and gabapentin are
also used for pain control .

If you find that a particular
food causes increased pain, stay
away from it. Spicy foods, cit-
rus fruits and juices, tomatoes,
chocolate, coffee, tea, carbonat-

such a distinguished delega-
tion to further the advance-
ment of healthcare quality
in the US and other coun-
tries."

The group visited QMC
Monday, Oct. 26, where
they heard about Quincy
Medical Center's Service
Excellence and Quality ef-
forts from Drs. Cadet and
Gupta, as well as presenta-
tions by QMC President &
CEO Gary Gibbons, MD,
and Janice Sullivan, Vice
President of External Af-
fairs. They then toured the
hospital.

ed drinks and alcohol are some
things on the list of irritants for
many with this problem.

If you feel lost about the di-
agnosis and its treatment, con-
tact the Interstitial Cystitis As-
sociation (800-435-7422; www.
ichelp.org) for information on
treatment and support for this
mystifying ailment that can com-
pletely throw life into turmoil.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
My doctor prescribed niacin
to lower my cholesterol. After
a month and a half, I devel-
oped shingles. Could niacin
have caused this? - J.

ANSWER: I can assure
you, without equivocation,
that niacin did not cause your
shingles. Shingles comes from
the chickenpwx virus that stays
in the body from the time of its
entrance until the time of that
person's death. Mostly at older
ages, the virus leaves the nerve
cell it found a home in. travels
down the nerve root to the skin
and produces the typical shin-
gles rash and pain.

Older people should consid-
er getting the shingles vaccine.

Shingles is a painful expe-
rience, and the pain can last
long after the rash has gone.

this common problem and how
it's treated. To obtain a copy,

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:

Do you consider toe-touches a

LT. DAN MIN TON

A Job Well Done

On Wednesday. Oct. 14, 2009, at approximately 5:55 p m..
Detective Duran was in an unmarked jx>lice car on Washing-
ton Street near Germain Avenue
when he observed a known her-
oin abuser, arrested as recent as
August of 2009, drive by.

Detective Duran decided
to follow the suspect as he
drove northbound on Washing-
ton Street and then onto South-
em Artery, stopping in the
parking lot of Wendy's Restau-
rant. The suspect (#1) bypassed
numerous empty parking spac-
es, then parked in the rear cor-
ner furthest from the restau-
rant entrance. Detective Duran
contacted Detective Keenan.
who sot>n after joined in the surveillance.

The suspect went into Wendy's, walked past
the cash registers and proceed directly to the bathroom
A few minutes later, the Detectives observed another vehicle
enter the Wendy's parking lot. The driver (suspect #2) got out
and walked into Wendy's, proceeding directly to the bathroom.
Less than ten seconds later, this man exited the bathnx)m
The Detectives knew through training and e\|X'rience that
drug dealers and abusers will often arrange to meet in places
that are out of public view and in places that will not arouse
suspicion when conducting drug transactions and/or when in-
gesting narcotics

They suspected that a drug transaction may have taken place
inside of the Wendy's bathr(K)m because a known heroin abus-
er was inside the bathri.x>m and the second male entered and
exited the bathroom within ten seconds, which in their opin-
ion was not long enough to use the bathroom or even wash
one's hands. As suspect #2 exited Wendy's. Detective Keenan
encountered him. identified himself as a Quincy Police Detec-
tive, asked him if they could speak with each other and then
read him his Miranda Rights.

When asked what he was doing in Wendy's, suspect #2 said
he just went to the men's room to go the bathroom. He told De-
tective Keenan that by coincidence, he bumped into his friend
in there. When asked how long they had known each other,
suspect #2 said "for a week."

While Detective Keenan was with suspect #2, Detective
Duran entered the Wendy's men's room to check on suspect
#1 . He noticed that someone was sitting on the toilet inside of
the bathroom stall. Looking under. Detective Duran could see
that whoever was sitting on the toilet was not going the bath-
room, but just sitting on a toilet. Detective Duran knocked on
the bathroom stall door and the male voice responded, "It's go-
ing to be a few minutes. I'm taking a $%^&."

At that time. Detective Duran looked over the bathriwm stall
and observed suspect #1 sitting on the toilet. On his lap was a
metal spoon with a brown substance on it and an un-capped hy-
pcxlermic syringe. Detective Duran announced "Quincy Po-
lice" and ordered the suspect to open the locked stall door, but
the suspect did not resp>ond.

Fearing that the suspect would destroy evidence, the De-
tective attempted to force his way into the stall but the toilet
flushed before he could get in. Once in the stall. Detective Du-
ran observed a wet metal spoon and an uncapped syringe next
to the toilet. The Detective took suspect #1 into custody and
then read him his rights per Miranda to which he stated he un-
derstood. The suspect said that he just flushed "a forty bag"
of heroin, which refers to the value at forty dollars. This infor-
mation was then relayed to Detective Keenan, who was still
questioning suspect #2.

The second suspect was asked how he knew the first suspect
was in the bathrcxim. since he was in a stall. Suspect #2 said
that he heard and recognized suspect #' ! voice because he was
talking on his cell phone while in the stall. Detective Keenan
told the second suspect that he found it odd that someone he
only knew for a week could so easily recognize his voice. The
second suspect was told that the first suspect was observed en-
tering and exiting the bathroom without talking on a cell phone
or even with a cell phone in his hands.

The second suspect recanted and said that he met the first
suspect in the bathroom near the sink before he went into the
stall. During the questioning of suspect #2. his two cell phones
in his possession rang frequently. Detecfive Keenan then ap-
proached the vehicle suspect #2 arrived in and located a female
standing outside. Detective Keenan asked her what she was
doing at Wendy's and she first told him that her boyfriend was
just using the bathroom, then staled that they weren't sure
if they wanted to eat there. The female appeared extremely
nervous while speaking with Detecfive Keenan, who informed
her that her passenger (suspect #2) was in custody. The fe-
male admitted to Detective Keenan that she was at Wendy's
so her husband could meet someone regarding "heroin or pos-
sibly sh(X)ting heroin."

Detective Keenan received consent to search the vehicle,
which was in disarray with trash strewn about the interior In
a backpack, Detecfives found several capped hypodermic s>-
ringes, 25 cellophane baggies and a brown powder believed
to be heroin. A digital scale was also found. At this time, sus-
pect #2. a 26-year-old Quincy resident, was placed under arrest
and charged with Distribution of Class A Drug, Possession of
Class A Drug with Intent to Distribute. and Conspiracy to Vio-
late Drug Laws. He had $300 in left front pants pocket and this
was confiscated. Suspect #1 . a 28- year-old Quincy resident,
was charged with Conspiracy to Violate Drug Laws.
Nice Work!

when the 2009 high school
postseason tournament be-
gins in two weeks.

Both schools have al-
ready secured their spot in
the dance. Quincy (16-0
overall) captured the 2(X)9

while North Quincy (12-
6 overall) should also be a
top-seed.

The Presidents, coached
by Jacqui Niosi, has domi-
nated every match this sea-

more than one game (teams
must win three games to
capture the match) against
any opponent. Quincy of-

their first eight matches, re-
lies on a steady senior class
and a handful of underclass-
men. April Kwong (libero).
Sarah Minton (middle), Jes-
sica Ainsley (setter), Nerry
Francois (middle). Hong
To (outside), Christine Tran
(setter) and Jen La (defen-
sive specialist) lead the se-
nior class.

beth Sullivan (opposite), Ol-

ivia Umoren (middle), Mi-
chelle Cole (middle), Emma
Ainsley (outside) and Ra-
chael Chu (setter) and fresh-
man Roe Bennett (middle)
have provided youth and en-
ergy to the Red Raiders.

Kerry Ginty coaches the
team.

North Quincy, 3-1. The
Presidents, led by Yee (15
assists). McCarthy. Blakes-
ley. Kozlowski and Shea,
with help from Sorensen (25
digs). Parry (15 assists) and

the game.

(six kills), J. Ainsley (22 as-
sists) and Kwong (13 digs),

Two Wins in Last Three Matches

expected to get a top-seed when the state playoffs begin in two weeks.

Quincy Golf Finishes Season On Positive Note

TTie Quincy High School
golf team finished their sea-
son with two wins in its last
three matches to finish the
season with a 4-4 record in
the Patriot League's Fisher
Division.

A second win over Rock-
land Hi£h School (45-27)

and a rain-shortened vic-
tory over Middleboro High
School (25.5-15.5) to close
out the year gave fifth-year
head coach Lou Venturelli a
reason to smile heading into
the off-season.

"We weren't very com-
oetitive against the Keenan

Division (0-6), but picking
up some victories in our own
division (Fisher) certainly
felt good for the kids," said
Venturelli .

Quincy was led all sea-
son by a group of seniors
who consistently scored
well. Co-caotain Pat Con-

ley played at #1 all year and
remained competitive with
the. best golfers in the Patri-
ot League. He was named to
the Patriot League's all-star
team.

"Pat gave the Hingham
golfer his only loss of the
vear and battled last vear's

State Champion 5-to-4 in
match play," added Ven-
turelli.

Gaining league honor-
able mention honors for their
consistent golf were Quincy
seniors, Tim Young (co-cap-
tain) and Kevin Keith.

"I'm verv haonv for Tim

considering the improve-
ment he has made since he
came to us as a freshman,"
said Venturelli. "He has
worked very hard to im-
prove his play and it really
showed this year."

Team Falls Short of Play o^ Bid

Red Raiders To Miss Postseason

By SEAN BRENNAN

A dillicult Patriot League
schedule ended a bid by the
North Oiiincy Red Raid-
ers to qualify for the MIAA
postseason tournament.

The Raiders dropped two
league games last week De-
spite playing one of their
best games of the season, the
team lost 1-0 to Whitman-
Hanson HS on Oct. 21 and
officially were eliminated
from the postseason follow-
ing a 4-0 loss to Silver Lake
Regional HS last Friday.

With two games left on
the docket (Oct. 27 versus
Duxbury HS and Oct. 29
against Scituate HS), North
Quincy's record stands at
7-10-1 overall.

"We have been eliminated
from any chance of making
the postseason, " said head
coach PauUBregoli. "These
last two games we will be
playing for pride and we will

play as hard as we have been
playing all season The ef-
fort is going to be there "

Against Silver Lake.
North Quincy. according to
Bregoli. came out flat and
it cost them as the Lakers
scored a goal si.x minutes
into the contest. A late first
half tally deflated the Raid-
ers and put them in a tough
2-0 hole at the break. Silver
Lake added on two addition-
al goals in the second half.

"We came out flat against
them," said Bregoli. "It
could have been the result of
our tough loss to Whitman-
Hanson, but that is what
happened. They scored early
in the game and then late in
the first half and we could
not recover.

"We played better in the
second half. It was a physi-
cal game and we responded,
but, just like it has been all
season, we could not score a

goal when we needed to '"

In the Whitman Hanson
game the Raiders watched as
one of the top-ranked teams
in the state jumped out to an
early 1-0 advantage North
Quincy played W'-H even the
rest of the way, but, again,
could not lind any clutch
scoring.

"Ihis was the best we
played all year." added
Bregoli. "Unfortunately
it was the same song and
dance. We could not finish
around the goal. Senior C'ara
Murtagh did hit the cross-
bar late but we just couldn't
score when we really need-
ed.

"1 am proud of the way
the team played against
W-H. And 1 believe that if
we could have tied them it
would have had a bigger
impact on the Silver Lake
game."

I ind the listed words in the diagram They run in all directions -
forward, backward, up, down and diagonally.

SaloiTK^'s

Slars

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Lots of choices could make it
difficult to select what is best for
your needs. Avoid snap judg-
ments. Take the time to check
them all out to find the one that
really meets your goals.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
You could once again experi-
ence pressure from others who
would like to see you move
in another direction. But heed
your Bovine instincts to stay on
your own path.

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Taking charge of a project
that seems to be about to stall
or collapse altogether could be
a challenge. But once every-
one knows what you expect of
him or her, things should go
smoothly.

CANCER (June 21 to July
22) Avoid the pressures of the
upcoming holiday period by
setting a time right now to dis-
cuss how to divide up the re-
sponsibility of helping a loved
one come through a difficult
period.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) It's
not too eariy for all you Leonas
and Leos to start making long-
distance travel plans. The soon-
er you stop procrastinating and
start deciding where, when and
how you're going, the better.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Someone you've known
for years might disappoint you,
or even make you feel you've
been betrayed. But check the
facts carefully before you make
charges that could backfire on
you.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) A holiday plan might
need to be revised to accom-
modate an unexpected compli-

cation. Come up with an alter-
native arrangement as soon as
possible to avoid more prob-
lems down the line.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Don't accept
halfway explanations for a situ-
ation that requires full disclo-
sure. The more you know now,
the better able you will be to
handle any complications that
might arise.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 2 1 ) The coop-
eration you relied upon might
not be easy to get. Maybe
there's an information gap. See
if everyone understands the
situation. If not, be sure to offer
a full explanation.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Problems caused
by that recent workplace dis-
traction should soon be easing,
allowing you to resume work-
ing at a less frantic pace. That
personal matter also begins to
ease up.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Changing your
mind about a job decision isn't
easy for the usually committed
Aquarian. But once you check
it out, you'll find facts you
didn't know before. And facts
don't lie.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Your unique way of siz-
ing up a situation gives you an
edge in resolving that upsetting
workplace problem. Stay on
your current course regardless
of any attempts to distract you.

BORN THIS WEEK: You are

emotionally attuned to what's
going on around you, and you
easily pick up on people's
needs.

4 Tmoi/ght

One vote has many times made the
difference, even in national elections.
Three of our early Presidents were
made head of our country by a one- vote
margin over their opponents: Thomas
SCOTT DEWARE Jefferson, John Quincy Adams and
Rutherford B. Hayes. . .

The Ballot Box is the best instrument to attack the prob-
lems of our time - whether it be in a presidential election or
a local election. The Ballot Box is the best way to legislate
and clarify issues.

The right to vote is the most fundamental of all our rights
because the behavior and performance of officeholders, at
every level of government, is dictated by the knowledge that
periodically they must come before the bar of public opinion
in the poUing booths.The caliber of a man or woman in public
life is a direct reflection of the wisdom and judgment exercised
by voters. . . It is your right to vote. . . use it. . . Remember
that if that right be refused or taken away, we would have
anarchy at its worse! . . .

HARD TO RESIST TOPAZ

27 locatfaovis

Not only is topaz a truly
beautiful gemstone, it is one of
the hardest. Known to symbolize
love and affection, this November
birthstone is notable for its pale
yellow and pink coloration;
blue topaz has also become
very popular in recent years. In
fact, the finest examples of blue
topaz can be compared with
more-expensive aquamarine.
The affordability of the equally
beautiful blue topaz can largely
be traced to the discovery of large
deposits of the gemstone in recent
history. Prior to that, topaz was a
comparatively rare gemstone,
from the times of the ancient
Greeks and Romans through the
mid- 19th century. Since then.

rV» 7 ottmom

the relative availability of topaz
has worked to the advantage of
lovers of this lovely gemstone.

Topaz offers enough variety
in color to suit every taste, as
well as an outstanding price
range to suit every pocketbook.
Especially striking when paired
with diamonds, topaz makes
wonderfiil anniversary gif^ too,
with blue topaz being the accepted
anniversary gemstone for the 4*
year, and the rare, orange-red
imperial topaz the gemstone for
the 23"* year of marriage. We
welcome you to 1402 Hancock
Street, Quincy Center, where we'd
like to show you our selection of
fine topaz. PH: 617-773-3636.

Administrative Changes Ahead

Preservation Funds Up
$73,000 From Last Year

The Community Pres-
ervation Fund edged up a
notch this year to $ 1 ,663 ,905
for 2010 projects. Last
year's total was $1^80,900
or $73,000 lower.

Mayor Thomas Koch
submitted the appropria-
tion request to City Council
which approved the funds
on Sept. 8 with the follow-
ing allocations:
Administrative Account:
• $83,195
Affordable Housing:

•$166^90
Historic Preservation:
•$166390
Open Space:
•$166390
Reserve Account:
•$1,081340
In addition, Koch request-
ed and the council approved
a transfer of $905,450 to the
CPA debt service account
which covers bonds issued
for the purchase of lands
in past years. These funds
will be transferred from the
CPA's Open Space Account
and Reserve Account.
The program aimed at

preserving histt)ric land-
marks and open space and
supporting affordable hous-
ing will begin its fourth
year in November with a
new schedule, according to
Steve Perdios, Chairman of
the Community Preserva-
tion Committee (CPC).

Perdios said the com-
mittee has planned several
scheduling changes this
year to expedite their review

and financial details of the
program.

Councillors plan to re-
view all CPA accounts at a
later date.

Most of the CPA fund-
ing originates through a
surcharge on the real estate
tax bill.

For the person owning
an average home valued
at $347,200, the surcharge
foir the CPA this year was

of the dozens of applications $31 .15, according to Asses-

submitted for CPA funds.

The annual public meet-
ing which "kicks off our ap-
plication season" has been
moved up to Nov. 12, ac-
cording to Perdios who said
the applications will be due
in early January.

The earlier deadlines will
allow the committee "more
time to deliberate," said Per-
dios who expects grant an-
nouncements in May.

THE HISTORY CHANNE

• On Nov. 10, 1775. the
Continental Congress pass-
es a resolution stating that
"two Battalions of Marines
be raised" for service as
landing forces for the Conti-
nental Navy. The resolution
created the Continental Ma-
rines and is now observed as
the birth date of the United
States Marine Corps.

• On Nov. 14, 1851,

"Moby Dick," a novel by
Herman Melville about the
voyage of the whaling ship
Pequod, is published. Ini-
tially the book was a flop.
By the 1920s, scholars had
rediscovered Melville's
work, and "Moby Dick" be-
came a staple of high-school
reading lists across the Unit-
ed States.

• On Nov. 15, 1867, the

first stock ticker is unveiled
in New York City. The ad-
vent of the ticker made up-
to-the-minute prices avail-
able to investors around
the country. Prior to this
development, information
from the New York Stock
Exchange traveled by mail
or messenger.

•On Nov. 11, 1918, at the

1 1th hour on the 1 1th day of
the 11th month, World War
I ends. At 5 a.m. that morn-
ing, Germany - bereft of
manpower and supplies and
faced with imminent inva-

sion - signed an armistice
agreement with the Allies in
a railroad car outside Com-
piegne, France.

• On Nov. 9, 1938, in an

event that would foreshad-
ow the Holocaust, German
Nazis launch a campaign of
terror against Jewish people
and their homes and busi-
nesses in Germany and Aus-
tria. The violence left ap-
proximately 100 Jews dead,
and 7^00 Jewish businesses
damaged. An estimated
30,000 Jewish men were ar-
rested.

• On Nov. 12, 1954, El

lis Island, the gateway to
America, shuts it doors af-
ter processing more than 12
million immigrants since
opening in 1892. Today, an
estimated 40 percent of all
Americans can trace their
roots through Ellis Island,
named for merchant Samuel
Ellis, who owned the land in
the 1770s.

• On Nov. 13, 1982, the

Vietnam Veterans Memorial
is dedicated in Washington.
The long-awaited memo-
rial 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.

The 2009 city election officially concluded Tues-
day night.

But there are still two positions up for grabs.

And that's the next city council president and school
committee vice chairperson.

We'll know for sure who will fill those posts at the
city's inauguration ceremonies Monday, Jan. 4, 2010
when all elected officials will be sworn into office and
the city council and school committee hold their orga-
nizational meetings.

It appears, as of this writing anyway, that the next
council president
and school commit-
tee vice chairper-
son will be Ward 3
Councillor Kevin
Coughlin and School
Committee woman
Anne Mahoney re-
spectively.

Coughlin was re-elected without opposition to a
fifth two-year term as the Ward 3 councillor while
Mahoney was re-elected to a second four-year term
Tuesday.

The city council president is elected to a one-year
term and council rules allow the president to succeed
himself for another one-year term. Coughlin, if he is
elected president, would succeed Ward 4 Councillor
Jay Davis who is wrapping up his two years as city
council president.

There are a host of responsibilities and duties in-
cluded in being the council president, including serv-
ing as the acting mayor in the absence of the mayor.

Other duties include:

• Selecting the seating arrangement for councillors
in the Council Chamber.

• Appointing the various council committees and
chairmen of those committees including the three
committees which all councillors serve on: finance,
oversight and ordinance.

• Preside at all city council meetings.

Coughlin was first elected Ward 3 councillor in
2001. He has worked 31 years as an assistant chief
probation officer in the Middlesex County Probate and
Family Court.

The school committee vice chairman also makes
committee appointments and presides at the school
committee meetings in the absence of the mayor who
serves as chairman of the school committee.

Mahoney, a marketing and communications con-
sultant, would be succeeding School Committee Vice
Chairman Dave McCarthy who has served as vice
chairman since 2008.

G
LOOK FOR SCENES filmed in
Quincy if you plan to see the new hor-
ror film "The Box" - starring Camer-
on Diaz and James Marsden - which
opens in theaters tomorrow (Friday).
Some scenes of the movie, set in
Richmond, Virginia in the year 1976,
were filmed at the Adams Shore Su-
permarket on Sea Street, Adams
Shore, over the course of a few days in December,
2007. Film crews made significant changes inside the
market - as well as the store's fa9ade - to give it a
mid-1970'sfeel.

Photos from the filming at the market are on display
inside the Adams Shore Market which is owned by
Nicholas Phillips. Some of the photos include mem-
bers of the Phillips family with Diaz.

In one particular scene (if it made it into the movie)
Diaz is wearing a long red coat and is seen waiting in
the check-out line inside the market. Hopefully that
scene did not make the cutting room floor.

Based on the 1970 short story "Button, Button," by
author Richard Matheson, the plot focuses on Diaz and
Marsden as a financially strapped married couple.

One night, they receive a box containing a button.
The next morning, a mysterious disfigured stranger

SPEAKING OF BASEBALL, the fall issue of Itali-
anAmerica magazine mentions former Red Sox out-
fielder and longtime scout Sam Mele of Quincy.

The magazine, which is the official publication of
The Order Sons of Italy of America, announces a first-
ever limited edition set of heritage cards honoring Ital-
ian American baseball heroes is available (visit www.
osia.org).

"Everyone knows Joe DiMaggio, Phil Rizzuto,
Tommy Lasorda and Yogi Berra, but how many re-
member the other fabulous DiMaggio brothers or Sam
Mele, manager of the year in 1965?" the article states.

Mele was named the American League's Manager
of the Year in 1 965 when he led the
Minnesota Twins to the pennant. His
Twins lost to the Dodgers in the World
Series that year in seven games.

Mele -one of the nicest guys you'll
ever meet - was a rookie with the Red
Sox in 1947. He later served as a scout
for the Red Sox for some 25 years.

There are 100 cards in the heritage
set. Here's a look at Mele's card (at right).

Scenes From Yesterday

R. R. Station, QUINCV, Mass.

THIS IS A 1915 postcard view of the old Quincy Cen-
ter railroad station on the Old Colony railroad. It was
located just south of where the present Red Line and
commuter rail station is today. The view is looking north
from what was Irving Place, a short dead-end street west
of the tracks that later became part of today's Burgin
Parkway. Either Depot Avenue or Saville Street - both
of which are now under the walkways of the Mclntyre
Mall - was used to reach the old depot from Hancock

Street. The storefronts visible under the canopy on the
right were at the base of the Hancock House Hotel,
which became the site of Mclntyre Mall. The building
on the left was the A J. Richard & Sons Company, the
local source for hay, grain and mason's supplies, none
of which is in high demand in Quincy Square today. To

Community Preservation Committee
Seeks Input At Pubic Hearing Nov. 12

In November of 2006,
Quincy adopted the Com-
munity Preservation Act
(CPA) with 57% of the vot-
ers supporting it. This will
be its fourth year in Quincy.
Thirty-three projects were
funded with money raised
through this program. Four
open space sites have been
protected, three affordable
housing projects were assist-
ed, improvements to parks
were funded, and several
historic sites were granted
money for restoration.

Each year the City of
Quincy's Community Pres-
ervation Committee (CPC)
must hold a public hearing.
This meeting is designed to
allow the public the oppor-
tunity to suggest ways that
this money should be spent.
As the CPC looks forward
to Quincy's fourth year, the
public hearing meeting has
been scheduled.

On Thursday, Nov. 12, in
the City Council Chamber
of City Hall, the CPC will
hear suggestions from the

public as to how this year's
money should be spent. All
are welcome to attend. The
meeting will begin at 7 p.m.
with an overview of what
the CPA is and an explana-
tion of how money from the
first three years of the pro-
gram has been spent.

This meeting will also
mark the opening of year-
four applications. The pub-
lic will be able to get an
application at this meeting.
All applicants are due to be
received in the City Solici-

tor's Office no later than 4
p.m. on Jan. 8, 2010 for
consideration for funding
this fiscal year. Application
will also be available at the
Solicitor's Office and on-
line at the uww.quincvma.
gov until Jan. 8, 2010. Some
advice and instructions re-
garding the completion of
the applications will also be
provided at the meeting on
Nov. 12.

Paper Takes Her Back To The Good Old Days

I look forward to each
weekly paper; it always
takes me back to the good
old days living in Wollas-
ton.

A recent article on the
Winfield House brought
back so many wonderful

memories and happy times
and also all the changes
happening in the city since
1 moved there when my
daughter entered first grade,
graduated from North Quin-
cy and granddaughter re-
ceived her LPN at Quincy

Junior. The years past so
fast.

I also check out the
obituaries-so many people
from year's ago-neighbors
and friends that have past
on. 1 find it interesfing on
the number of children and

grandchildren they had and
active lives.

It is very interesting on

how many people were

born in "Southie," move to

Dorchester, then to Quincy.

KEN TARABELLI (left), president and CEO of Bay State
Community Services, was recently honored by the Association
of Behavioral Healthcare. At right is Bill Spinks, director of
Prevention and Intervention Services at Bay State Community
Services, Inc.

Receives Unsung Hero Award

Ken Tarabelli Of Bay State
Community Services Honored

Ken Tarabelli, presi-
dent and CEO of Bay State
Community Services, was
recently recognized by the
Association for Behavioral
Healthcare (ABH) (for-
merly Mental Health and
Substance Abuse Corpora-
tions of Massachusetts, Inc.
(MHSACM)), a statewide
organization.

Tarabelli received an
Unsung Hero Award for his
dedication to individuals
with mental illness and sub-
stance abuse disorders.

The award was recently
presented at ABH's annual
Provider Celebration.

Each year, ABH recog-
nizes human service em-
ployees, young people, con-
sumer and family advocates
and others who have made
outstanding contributions to
the fields of mental health
and substance abuse treat-
ment.

Bay State Community
Services was formed in
1991 through a merger of
five community-based agen-
cies that had a l(X)-year col-
lective history of providing
innovative, responsive, and
accessible programming to
the people of the Greater
Boston and Southeastern ar-
eas of Massachusetts.

Tarabelli served as the
executive director of one of
those agencies since 1975.
Under his leadership the
agencies merged and he was
chosen as the new executive
director.

"The Provider Celebra-
tion allows us to honor in-
dividuals like Ken Tarabelli
who work without fanfare
to stand up every day to
make life better for indi-
viduals with mental illness
and substance use disorders
and their families," said Vic
DiGravio, ABH's President/
CEO. "Ken's devotion to
his work is truly inspiring."

Bay State is dedicated to
improving the social func-
tioning of adults, adoles-
cents, and children within a
framework that recognizes
the primary importance of
family and community.

"It is with thanks to
Ken's leadership, and his

State Rep Martin Walsh of

"In the past, some ab-

Koch Cruises Past Phelan For 2nd Term

Coni 'd From Pa^c /
"Ward i is very much abt)ut
your dues. Just being out
there knixking on doors and
seeing what people were
concerned with made a dif-
ference."

In Ward 6, Ward Coun-
cillor Brian McNamee eas-
ily turned aside a challenge
from Maureen Glynn who
was making her first run for
elected office in Quincy.

McNamee, 52, of 133
Commander Shea Blvd.,
won by 949 votes. He polled
2,598 votes while Glynn,
age 62, of 10()1 Marina Dr.,
received 1,649 votes.

In the race for school
committee, incumbent Anne
Mahoney rolled to a second
four-year term topping the
city-wide ballot with 13,977
votes - just one vote more
than Councillor at-large
John Keenan.

Also winning seats were
Emily Lebo and Karl Roos
but a recount loomed in the
school race as Roos edged
fourth-place finisher Bar-
bara Isola by only 1 vote.
Lebo's vote total was 8,701
while Roos and Isola re-
ceived 8,573 and 8,572
votes respectively.

Isola has seven days to

request a city- wide recount.
She would need to acquire
60 signatures - 10 in each of
the city's six wards - to file
the recount.

Reached Tuesday night
after the votes were tabulat-
ed, Isola said she is leaning
towards a recount.

"What we're going to
do is take a deep breath and
make a decision on all the
information we gather," she
said.

According to City Clerk
Joseph Shea, a city-wide
recount would cost approxi-
mately $20,000. Ballots
would be counted by hand,
he said.

Rounding out the six-
candidate field for school
committee were Matt Lock-
wood Mullaney, who fin-
ished fifth with 7,633 and
Rebecca McWilliams who
was sixth with 4,469.

cilor. I know that Margaret
will work hard for Ward
One and I look forward to
working with her to make

taught by the missionary
nun Mother Teresa.

He read nine lines of "Do

begins: "People are often
unreasonable, irrational and
self-centered. Forgive them
anyway."

munity leaders and fans.

Fuel System Added To Four City Vehicles

Mayor Thomas P Kt)ch
announces the installation
of Aqua Tune H\dr<>gen
Fuel Systems in four city
vehicles.

The component, installed
by the owners of Aqua Tune.
increa.ses fuel efficiency by
25% and augments horse
power by up to 30%. offi-
cials said.

The four vehicles, two
Ford Trucks, a Ford Explor-
er, and a 1995 Crown Victo-
ria, all have realized signifi-
cant increases in gas mileage
and horsepower. The system
uses distilled water to purify
the fuel system, increasing
fuel efficiency and lowering
emissions.

Sal Rizzo. a lifelong
Quincy resident, represents
Aqua Tune in the greater-
Boston area. He reached

out to the City to install the
.system and was optimistic
that the program could be
enlarged, bringing greater
savings to the City "Know
ing Mayor Koch's desire to
provide innovative solutions
to complex problems, I ap-
proached him about Aqua
Tune. After researching the
product, he quickly wel-
comed the opportunity "

"This product has already
proven to be a tremendous
benefit to the citv." Koch
said "There is limitless po-
tential here, and it is another
step in m\ administration's
commitment to bring cost-
effective, green technolo
gies that will save monev
and protect the environ-
ment." the ma\<)r added

SNUB THE STUB

Stubbing a toe is a painful best assurance of a speedy

experience. This unfortunate
accident may occur due to
walking barefoot or in sandals
that expose the toes. If the
object you hit Is hard enough,
you can actually lose a slice
of your toenail. The simplest
way to avoid such a calamity
is to wear shoes that protect
your toes, if only by a thin
layer of rubber or cloth. Make
sure to trim your toenails so
they do not exceed the length
of the toes. If your toenails
are too long, and you do stub
your toe, you may injure the
nail to the point where it does
not grow back properly, leav-
ing the toe exposed and vul-
nerable to infection.

Whether you're dealing
with toe problems, sports in-
juries, bunions, fungal infec-
tions, or heredity conditions,
professional attention is the

recovery and prevention of
future consequences. If your
foot problem concerns prona-
tion, we invite you to consult
with us about HyProCure™.
I am one of only two podia-
trists In Massachusetts who
has the advanced training
necessary to perform this
minimally invasive procedure
that requires no casting and
has patients back in their
regular shows in just one
week. Footcare for the fam-
ily is available at QUINCY
MEDICAL CENTER. We can
be reached at 781-986-3668.
Office hours are also avail-
able at 999 North Main St., in
the Randolph Medical Office
Building, and Milton Medical
Building in Suite 221 .

apply ice right away to reduce
the swelling.

Q^I read your re-
• cent article on
dishwasher, and it prompt-
ed me to ask about how
to deal with an odor from
my front-loading washer.
When washing, very little
detergent is used along
with watered-down fabric
softener and bleach that
is added to the dispensers.
The rim and all dispensers
are kept clean. This odor
makes the clothes smell
sour and makes doing the
laundry very difficult. Just
what can you recommend
for getting rid of this odor
both in the washer and the
clothes? - Lani B., Kissim-
mee, Fla.

A^ Washer odor is ac-
• tually pretty com-
mon, particularly in areas
that are hot and humid much
of the year. Odor problems
tend to develop over time,
even if the washer is not used
every day.

The culprit is not dirty
dispensers or rims, or even
leaks (most of the time). The
problem is a buildup of soap
scum in parts of the washer
that can't easily be reached,
such as the outer tub and the
inside or just under the agi-
tator. Because this buildup
sticks very well to surfaces,
common home remedies like

lem.if at all.

A number of remedies,
both homemade and commer-
cial, are available to tackle it.
Commercially available for-
mulas include Smelly Washer
(smellywasher.com), a solu-
tion that can be used to re-
duce mildew odors. Glisten,
a dishwasher cleaner, can be
used to clean clothes washers
as well. Home-improvement
stores and appliance sales or
repair centers stock these or
similar items.

Home remedies involve
running the empty washer
through a full cycle with a
cleaning or disinfecting in-
gredient added. Add a cup
of baking soda to the wash
water; or 3/4 cup of Calgon
clothes detergent. A cycle
using white vinegar also can
be run (but don't run baking
soda and vinegar together in
the same cycle).

HOME TIP: To prevent
mildew odors from plaguing
your laundry room, keep the
washer door open when not
in use, and use less detergent
in order to reduce soap scum
buildup.

Mayor Thomas P. Koch
and Planning Director Den-
nis E. Harrington announce
the creation of a first-time
homebuyer program called,
"At Home in Quincy," which
will provide financial assis-
tance to first-time homebuy-
ers that meet certain income
requirements.

The program will provide
qualified applicants with up
to 2% assistance with down
payment andybr closing
costs, and may pay an ap-
plicant's private mortgage
insurance premium.

"This program will be
a phenomenal opportunity
for renters who want to be-
come homeowners, and for
young couples just starting
out," said Koch. "I am very
excited about making this
program available at no cost
to Quincy taxpayers."

All homes purchased
through this program must
be located in Quincy. The

program is also limited to
those who work or have
lived in the City of Quincy
for two out of the past five
years.

Households must have
a combined income of
$105,720 or less in order to
meet income restrictions.
Qualified applicants must
not have owned a home in
the past three years.

"At Home in Quincy"
will be made possible
through a partnership be-
tween the City of Quincy 's
Affordable Housing Trust
Fund and MassHousing (the
state's affordable housing
bank).

Bank of Canton and
South Coastal Bank will ad-
minister the program. Both
banks were selected after
having met the minimum
criteria through a Request
for Proposals process.

For more information,
interested applicants should

contact Thomas Fabrizio, Committee, at 617-376-

fessional distinction which
places Segura among the
top 25 percent of all agents

NAR's strict Code of Ethics

Some Bay State hom-
eowners are still being so-
licited to pay a private com-
pany $59.50 for "certified
deeds" they could get direct-
ly from the Norfolk Registry
of Deeds for just $2.

"It may be legal, but I
still think it's outrageous,"
said William P. O'Donnell,
Norfolk County's Register
of Deeds, of a direct-mail
solicitation thousands of
Massachusetts homeown-
ers recently received. "I am
bringing this to the public's
attention in response to a
number of recent inquiries
about this practice by ho-
meowners here in Norfolk
County."

O'Donnell called this an
ongoing problem.

In a recent TV news re-
port, O'Donnell outlined
how the solicitation works.

In an official-looking let-
ter that includes the hom-
eowner's Norfolk Registry
Book and Page deed cita-
tion. National Deed Service
Inc. writes: "The U.S. Gov-
ernment Federal Citizens
Information Center website
recommends that property
owners should have an offi-
cial or certified copy of their
deed. If you don't already
have this important docu-
ment, you may obtain one
now."

The letter offers hom-
eowners one certified copy
of their deed for $59.50, and
then appears to offer a bar-
gain by charging only $20
for a second certified copy.

The firm's letters do dis-
close that many of these
records "are available free

or at a nominal cost from
government agencies," and
notes that it is not affili-
ated with any governmental
agency.

O'Donnell said that
doesn't sit well with him,
however.

"I just want to warn all
the residents and businesses
of Norfolk County that this
practice preys on those who
don't realize how easy and
inexpensive it is to contact
the Registry directly to ob-
tain a certified copy of a
deed or any recorded docu-
ment," said O'Donnell.

"For just $2, our custom-
er service staff will process
your request and mail you
out a certified copy of your
deed."

The Norfolk Registry of
Deeds, located at 649 High
St., Dedham, is the principal
office for real property in
Norfolk County.

The Registry is the basic
resource for homeowners,
title examiners, mortgage
lenders, municipalities and
others with a need for se-
cure, accurate, accessible
land record information. The
Registry land records back
to the founding of Norfolk
County in 1793 are avail-
able for online viewing at
the Registry website, www.
norfolkdeeds .org .

A full service customer
service staff is available
over the telephone at 617-
461-6101 or at the Reg-
istry's walk-in center to
assist the public with certi-
fied copies or deeds, other
documents or any Registry
related matter.

Q

A representative of the
Liberty Mutual Insurance
Company approached us
with a fire safety program
they're promoting. In fact the
gentleman manned a table at
our most recent Open House
joining us in our efforts at
promoting fire safety at that
time. Education is such a
large part of our effort; we'll
use whatever angle as a
means to a safer community,
open house included. Here
however, is another effort
which I will hilite.

Liberty Mutual has a
web site: BeFireSmart.com.
Adults and children can sign
on and respond to a 10-ques-
tion quiz. The questions are
simple, yet thought provok-
ing. Each has to do with
household fire safety. I've
taken it and the simple ques-
tions made me stop and think
on the subject matter. They
couldn't have been simpler,
yet they provoked thought.

Here's an example: As
you leave a burning build-
ing, leave all doors open;

true or false?

Here's another: What is
the leading cause of home
fires in the winter months;
heating equipment, holiday
lights or cooking? Answers
are given after completion
of each question.

There are two reasons
why we are on board with
this effort. The first and
most important being, it
will draw attention to our
own fire safety educational
efforts if only for 2 min-
utes. Any time directed to-

A Job Well Done

On Wednesday. October 2 1 , 2tX)9, at approximately
4:10 a.m.. Officers James Parisi, Danny Church and
Siobahn O'Connor re-
sponded to a call of suspi-
cious people in the area of
Common Street.

The first officer arrived
on scene and reported that
three parties fled in differ-
ent directions. The officers
had prior knowledge that
three parties were wanted
after having stolen several
hundred dollars worth of
tools. During that search,
at least one suspected par-
ty was spotted by Officer Coen trying to steal a car
and fled from the Police. The officers checked the area
thoroughly but did not find any suspects.

At 5:48 A.M. Officers' Parisi, Jay Grazioso Jr. and
Sergeant Joseph Lencki responded to the area of Day-
ton Street on a report of a Breaking and Enter-
ing into a motor vehicle that just occurred. The call-
er reported the suspect was a male wearing a dark
shirt who fled in the direction of Jenness Street.
Approximately three minutes after being dispatched
Sergeant Lencki radioed that he was making con-
tact with a party at the intersection of Furnace Brook
Parkway and Adams Street. Officer Parisi assisted and
saw that Sergeant Lencki had detained a male wearing
a dark shirt, black cap, dark sweat pants, a black glove,
and light colored sneakers.

Within seconds, the victim approached the offi-
cers and said, "He broke into my car! He's wearing
my clothes! That's my jacket!"

Officer Grazioso Jr. arrived on scene and further
interviewed the victim while Officer Parisi went to
Dayton Street to view the location of the theft. The
father of the victim said that he was in bed sleep-
ing when he heard the garage door open and his wife
said she woke to the sound of car doors slamming. She
then went to the bedroom window and called out ask-
ing who was there. She heard a male voice respond
that he was "taking a %^&*" in her yard. She told the
man to leave and saw him walk from the side of the
house and turn toward Jenness Street, talking on a
I cell phone. The mother woke her son, then called 911 .
She told the officer that a girl's bike leaning against
the side of the house was stored in the back of the
garage. With the officer, she looked through the ga-
rage and saw that several items had been moved
out of the way allowing the bike to be taken out. She
was certain the door had been closed, as well as the
six-foot privacy gate with a hook and hole latch that
needs to be undone from the inside. The mother, who
saw the suspect, said that she believed that she could
identify him again. Officer Grazioso Jr. transporte*^! the
suspect to the scene of the crime, where the witness
stated that it was the same clothing but she was unsure
if it was the same man. The victim said that he did not
actually see a crime being committed, but was sure that
the clothing on the suspect was his. The victim said
that the jacket was taken from the garage.

The suspect, a 29 year old resident of Quincy was
charged with "Breaking and Entering a Building
at Night with Intent to Commit a Felony, Breaking and
Entering a Motor Vehicle at Night with Intent to Com-
mit a Felony, MGL Ch 266 Sec 30 Larceny Under
$250. He was transported to the station by Officer
Grazioso Jr.

A check of the yard produced a black shoe and
two pair of socks that did not belong to the victim
family. The house directly behind them also has a
fenced yard and their gate was open. It appeared that
the susf)ect entered the vicfim's yard via the neigh-
bor's yard, then jumping the fence.

The Officers believed that the suspect then put the
stolen clothes on top of his own to change his appear-
ance, then fled.

At the station, the suspect was searched and a li-
cense belonging to a male from Dedham was found in
his wallet. Quincy Police dispatcher Tim Sheehan was
able to locate a report from the Dedham Police Depart-
ment that showed the license was stolen.

The suspect had one guilty finding for Knowing-
ly Receiving Stolen Property from Dorchester Dis-
trict Court, so he was charged with a subsequent offense
A default warrant for Unarmed Burglary was located
for the suspect, from South Boston District Court.
Nice Work!

Quincy Finished
Season A Perfect 17-0

By SEAN BRENNAN

A perfect 17-0 regular
season, capped off with a
Patriot League champion-
ship has set the Quincy
High School girls volleyball
team up with the opportu-
nity to become one of the
more successful teams in
the program's distinguished
history.

Quincy is expected to be
one of the top seeds in the
Central -East playoffs when
the tournament pairings
are announced this week.
Getting to where they are
has been a combination of
senior leadership, steady
underclassmen play and a
determination to be the best
team on the court in every
match

"We have really played
very well as a team this sea-
son," said fourth-year QHS
head coach Jacqui Niosi,
who is a 2001 graduate of
Quincy High School; a cur-
rent culinary teacher at the
high school and an alumni
of the volley program. "I
have five seniors, a sopho-
more setter and middle
hitter and a junior outside
hitter and libero. Overall,
we have played as a team,
we have practiced hard, we
have worked on the basics
and we have mental tough-
ness.

"This team has been fo-
cused on playing volleyball
and fighting for every point
from 1 to 25. As a defen-
sive-minded team, we work
on setting the tone in every
match we play and I don't

think the girls were shocked
that we ended the year un-
defeated."

Quincy has steamrolled
through the regular season
beating all comers. The
['residents have played 17
times and not once has the
team lost more than one
game in a match. The domi-
nance shown by this group
speaks highly of the level of
talent and grit of the team
as a whole.

"We have yet to have a
match go to five games,"
said Niosi. "We have played
some close games against
tough competition including
twice against North Quincy
and that has been good for
us, but 1 am not sure how I
feel about not playing any
matches to five games. It
would have been nice to
play a fifth game before the
tournament, but these girls
played in close matches last
season so that should not be
a problem for us."

A senior class that has
been playing together since
their freshman year leads
the 2009 Presidents. Julia
Yee (captain), Kylie Ko-
zlowski (captain), Meghan
McCarthy, Becca Shea
and Bianca Blakesley have
competed on successful
teams, including a team
two years that made the
South Sectional semifinals,
but, according to Yee and
Kozlowski, this year's team
could be the best of the
four.

"We are the true defini-
tion of a team," said Yee.

"Tnere are no superstars.
Hveryone is equal and ev-
eryone is a good player. The
seniors and the underclass-
men know that in order for
us to be successful in the
tournament we have to give

ll()7r."

"We need to keep up our
intensity," added Kozlows-
ki about Quincy "s upcom-
ing tournament run. "There
is a lot of experience on
this team and when we play
with that intensity we are at
our best."

Both captains were in
agreement that an unde-
feated season and a league
championship means noth-
ing if the team does not
play up to that level in the
postseason.

"We have the potential
to make a serious run." said
Yee and Kozlowski. "We
want to be state champions.
We are a defensive team
with a quick offense, so if
we play like we know we
can we should have suc-
cess."

And success is some-
thing that Niosi 's teams are
accustomed to achieving. In
four years, she has led her
teams to four straight tour-
nament appearances, but,
for her and this year's team,
it is the aura of what Quincy
volleyball means that helps
drive all involved.

"We are all dedicated
and invested in Quincy vol-
leyball," she said. "There is
a certain history involved
with Quincy volleyball and
these girls are aware of it

Squantum Storm v.

North Quincy Apaches

A game that was billed as
a hard-hitting battle for brag-
ging rights of the North Quin-
cy-section of the city saw the
undefeated Storm take on the
red-hot NQ Apaches, a team
that entered the semifinals on
a four-game winning streak.

The Apaches, behind the
play of quarterback Patrick
Frasso, started the game with
a 15-yard pass completion
to fight end Aaron Clancy.
Running back Ed Guinto
and Frasso ran the ball well
on the opening drive, but
the Storm defense made two
consecutive plays to turn the
tide.

Defensive end Zach Bai-
ley stopped Andrew Currie
for a five-yard loss and on
the next play Storm safety
AJ Shaughnessy intercepted
a pass intended for tight end
Nick Frasso and returned
it 50 yards for the game'
first score. Shaughnessy 's
fifth INT of the season gave
Squantum a 6-0 lead. Storm
quarterback Steve Roach ran
the conversion up the middle
for a 7-0 lead.

Behind the offensive line
play of Anthony Green, Da-
vid Capone, Nick Manning,
Exavier Romero, Andrew
Jaehnig and Patrick Janiero,
Storm running back Antoine
Allen scored from 45 yards
out later in the half to give
Squantum a 13-0 advan-
tage. Jaehing (11 tackles),
Conor Houlihan, Romero,
Roach, Janiero, Visal Min,
Greg Clarke, Shaughnessy
and Eddie Riley led a Storm
defense that shutdown the
Apaches and helped Sqaun-
tum score a late first-half
touchdown.

After Allen's touchdown
run, the Storm defense forced
a tipped pass by Frasso that
was intercepted by Romero.
His return put the Storm back
in scoring position. Allen ran
the ball inside the 10-yard
line and with only seven sec-

onds left in the half, Roach
found Shaughnessy for a
touchdown to give the Storm
a 19-0 lead at the break.

Allen capped off the
Storm scoring with another
long touchdown run in the
second half. Solomon Umo-
ren, Zach Dangora, Alex
Barsamian, Andrew Kiley
and Joey Gaglione all played
well for the Storm and team
captain Ranee Gillespie gave
the team an emotional lift
when he entered the locker
room in uniform before the
game.

The Apaches' Vincent
Tran scored from 65 yards
to close out the scoring. Matt
Donovan, Mike Camevale,
Kyle Richardson, Andrew
Currie, Mike Connelly and
Jake Bergonzi all played
hard for the North Quincy
Apaches.

West Quincy Elks v. Quin-
cy Point Panthers

Alex Alexandre, Jerry
Verrill, Bobby Salvucci,
Alex Leo and Jalen Chase
played outstanding for the
West Quincy Elks as the
team came back to defeat
the Quincy Point Panthers,
19-13.

Jonathan Aikens, Matt
Kozlowski and Ivan Sical
led the Panthers.

Quincy Shuts Down
Randolph, 13-0

By SEAN BRENNAN

An opportunistic offense
and a sfingy defense help)ed
the Quincy Presidents pick
up their second win of the
season, 13-0, last Friday
night at Randolph High
School. Quincy "s (2-5 over-
all) first victory of the fall
came on Oct. 16 following
a come-from-behind 27-26
decision over Pembroke
High School.

"It was a good effort over-
all from the whole team,"
said QHS head coach Bill
Reardon about his team's
performance against the
Randolph Blue Devils. "The
defense played as a unit and
the offense came together.
We are improving every
week."

The Presidents' offense
scored its first touchdown
in the second quarter. Junior
running back Ronn News-
ome capped off the scoring
drive with a 12-yard touch-
down run. Following the
halitime break, senior tight
end Tom Lx)wry (three catch-
es, 81 yards, TD) caught a
20-yard pass firom senior
quarterback Lance Peterson
to give the Presidents a 13-0
advantage. That score would
hold as the Quincy defense
shutdown the Blue Devils

offense all game long.

"Lowry played a good
game," added Reardon. "He
filled in for an injured play-
er at tight end and not only
scored his' second touch-
down of the season but had
over eighty yards receiving.
The offense really played
well together and we had
a number of players pro-
duce and contribute in this
game."

Besides Newsome, the
Presidents received a mon-
ster game from sophomore
running back Reggie Cesar
(17 carries, 153 yards). But
Reardon was quick to point
out the play of his offen-
sive line and the job they
did opening up lanes for the
backs to run through.

"Ouroffensive line played
very well," he said. "Akeem
Haywood (left tackle), Bri-
an McDonald (left guard),
Keenan Daniels (center),
Joe Spargo (right guard) and
Ryan Boyle (right tackle) re-
ally gave our backs the space
to make some plays. It al-
lowed Cesar, who is coming
into his own this season, and
Newsome the opportunity to
run the ball."

On the defensive side of
the field, Quincy got solid
performances from seniors

Ngozi Aguguo (two inter-
ceptions), James Nguyen
and Kevin Rhodes.

"A real good effort from
the whole defense," said
Reardon. "Aguguo contin-
ues to make plays for us
and Nguyen is a player who
is a key for our success. He
played a great game. Kevin
Rhodes also stood out on de-
fense."

The Presidents' next op-
ponent is Rockland High
School (Friday, Nov. 6, 7
p.m.. Veterans Memorial
Stadium) and, according to
Reardon, this game will be
another test for his young
team.

"Rockland is one of the
better teams in the Patriot
League," said Reardon. "It
will be a tough game but
if we continue to play well
and play as a team we have
a chance. They have a huge
game against Hanover High
School the following week,
so maybe we can surprise
them on Friday."

Association recommends the
use of a cartamide peroxide
solution (available in 10%,
16%, and 22% concentrations)
in a custom-fit tray for use
at home. These customized
mouth guards help ensure that
the tooth-whitening solution re-
mains in contact with the teeth
for maximum whitening while
minimizing the potential for Ir-
ritating gums and other soft tis-

tooth-whitening also provides
the benefit of consultation with
the dentist in the event that
the patient experiences undue
tooth sensitivity. If so, the den-
tist can provide a tooth whitener
of tower concentrations or a de-
sensitizing gel for use immedi-

sidered to be one of the safest

Chiropractor _^^^^^_^^^^^^

UP TO YOUR ELBOWS

Lateral epicondylitis ("tennis
elbow" ) is caused by inflammation
on the outside of the elbow where
the wrist extensor muscles attach
to the humerus (the long bone
in the arm that runs from the
shoulder to the elbow). Because
pain results from any movement
involving the contraction (or
moderate stretching) of the
wrist extensor muscles, "tennis
elbow" is not limited to tennis
players. The goal of chiropractic
treatment of this problem largely
rests with relieving pressure on
the joint space, where tightening
of the wrist extensor muscles
has caused friction and pain.
Adjusting the wrist may also
prove to be beneficial. By actively
addressing the cause, chiropractic
hopes to eliminate the unwanted
effect, not simply mask painful
symptoms with pain relievers.

Treatment of tennis elbow
aims at reducing pain and

inflammation, promoting the
healing process, and regaining
normal strength and flexibility.
Call the FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CfflROPRACTIC at
6174724220 to schedule
an appointment for quality
chiropractic care. We can make
a difference between life with
pain, disability, and sickness,
and a life of true recovery,
activity, and accomplishments.
We utilize the most advanced and
comprehensive equipment and
procedures to deliver the finest
chiropractic care. We're located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass., we c£m offer you
exceptional chiropractic service.

PS. A tennis elbow band
may serve as an effective adjunct
to chiropractic treatment by
decreasing the pressure exerted
by the wrist extensor muscles on
the elbow.

• Great progress is being
made in reducing tobacco
use in the U.S., with adult

Pregnancy

Possible in

Diabetics

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
This past week, our 29-year-
old daughter was diagnosed
with type 1 diabetes. Our
family is devastated. We
thought this was a juvenile
illness. What is the long- term
prognosis for this disease?
Should pregnancy be avoid-
ed? She was hoping to start a
family. -BJS.

ANSWER: Type 1 diabetes
used to be called juvenile dia-
betes because it often strikes at
young ages, but it doesn't do so
exclusively. The name change
reflects that fact. It also was
called insulin-requiring dia-
betes because almost all type
1 diabetics must inject insulin
for blood sugar control .

The long-term progno-
sis for diabetes is good if the
person can keep blood sugar
controlled. Diabetes has many
complications - kidney dis-
ease, heart disease, artery dis-
ease, nerve disturbance and
eye problems - but good con-
trol of blood sugar can usually
keep these complications to a
minimum. Most people with
type 1 diabetes lead the kind
of lives they wish to lead, and
most can be as active as they
desire. Nowadays, people with
diabetes check their blood sug-
ar routinely and frequently ad-
just their insulin dose accord-
ingly. New varieties of insulin
make ii easier to keep blood
sugar within norms.

Your daughter can have
children unless her doctor has
told her otherwise. It's very
important for a potential dia-
betic mother to maintain near-
normal blood sugars at the time
of conception and throughout
pregnancy to prevent any dis-
turbances in the growth and
development of the embryo

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
Will you discuss the best way
to take multiple medicines in
a 24-hour period? I have a
friend who downs 13 pills at
the same time. Does mixing
numerous medicines change
their effectiveness? -A' ./4,

ANSWER: It's hard not
to imagine that, in a batch of
13 different medicines, one or
two, at least, would be incom-
patible with the other II or 12.
The incompatibility might be a
lessened drug absorption in the
digestive tract or it might be
that some of those drugs react
chemically with others in the
blood. Your friend should get
this straightened out with the
doctor or with the pharmacist.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
In my family when I was
growing up, Epsom salts were
used for everything. I never
hear people say they use them
these days. Why not? Don't
they work? - SM.

ANSWER: Epsom salts
come from the mineral waters
of Epsom, England. When the
water evaporates, magnesium
sulfate is left. Local entrepre-
neurs promoted the salts as a
cure-all for many ailments.

One use was soaking sore
muscles or joints. No harm
comes from using the salts for
that. Others used Epsom salts
as a laxative. That's not a ter-
rific idea. They're too harsh on

the digestive tract.

Managing Director

On the morning of Veteran's Day the
awe-inspiring ceremony which begins with
the traditional laying of the Presidential
Wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown
Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery is
held. Not only in Arlington, but all over the
world there are places hallowed by those
who could say as did AJE. Housman in his
famous "Epitaph for the Fallen" - "Here
lie we dead because we did not choose to shame the land from
which we sprung."

We do not know what great things those who gave their all might
have accomplished. . . We do know they were Americans all. It did
not matter whether they were rich or poor; what their color was;
whether they were Protestant, Catholic or Jewish. Theirs was not
a divided nationality. They were just Americans who loved their
country enough to offer their lives that those ideals of justice and
democracy might not perish from the earth.

As Americans, we too, must not "shame the land from we
spring." Do we not have a duty as binding upon us as that of any
soldier? Do we not have the duty of seeing to it that they did not
die in vain; that the ideals which formed the United States be not
set aside for lesser material advantages? Do we not have the duty
to see to it that American remains ^rong - spiritually as well as
materially - so that those who come after may live as free people,
unafraid in a free world? . . .

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
A rejection of your attempt to
be friendly leaves you with two
choices: Try again, or give up.
If you want to make another
effort, go slowly. Let things de-
velop without pressure.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
It could be a problem dealing
with unfamiliar people who do
things differently from what
you're used to. But rely on that
strong sense of purpose to get
you through this difficult pe-
riod.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
To avoid neglecting a personal
matter because of a demanding
new workplace schedule, start
prioritizing immediately. Know-
ing how to apportion your time
takes a little while to set up.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
It won't be easy to avoid some
of the pressures that come with
change. Best advice: Take things
a step at a time, and you'll be
less likely to trip up while things
are in a chaotic state.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) A
much-talked-about workplace
change could be coming soon.
Be sure to get all the details in-
volved in the process, and once
you have them, you can decide
how you want to deal with it.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) You might still believe
that your trust was betrayed,
although the facts would appear
to prove the opposite. But by
the week's end you should learn
something that will help set the
record straight.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) Holiday plans could be
a challenge because of shifting
circumstances. But a more set-
tled period starts by midweek.

SalofTK^'s

Stars

allowing you to firm up your
plan-making once and for all.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) The facts continue
to be on your side. So make
use of them in dealing with any
challenge to your stated posi-
tion. Also, open your mind to
the offer of help from an un-
likely source.

SAGITTARIUS (Novem

ber 22 to December 21) There
could still be a communication
problem holding up the resolu-
tion of a troublesome situation.
Stay with it, and eventually your
message will get through and be
understood.

CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) A possible change
in your workplace schedule
might create a chaotic situation
for a while. But once things be-
gin to settle down, you might
find that this could work to your
advantage.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A recent job-
linked decision might need to be
reassessed because of the pos-
sibility of finding benefits you
might have overlooked. Check
out all related data to help in the
search.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) A personal situation you
agreed to might not be as ac-
ceptable to the other person
involved in the matter. Avoid
pressuring and bullying. In-
stead, seek common ground by
talking things through.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a gift for touching people's
minds as well as their hearts.
You would make an outstanding
educator.

"Oh, most beautiful flower of Mt.
Carmel, Fruitful vine, splendor 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 you
from the bottom of my heart to suc-
cor me in this necessity. There are
none that can withstand your pow-
er. Oh, Mary, conceived without
sin, pray for us who have recourse
to thee (three times). Holy Mary,
I place this cause in your hands
(three times). Say this prayer 3
consecutive days, and then you
must publish and it will be granted
to you. H.C. 10/30

Second US. President Honored With Presidential Wreath

Life, Legacy Of John Adams Remembered On Birthday Anniversary

By JOE REARDON

In many of his letters
to his wife Abigail, John
Adams often said he was
"unequal to the task" of the
trials he faced as a founding
father and second president
of the United States.

History, though, has
shown Adams was very
much equal to the task,
whether it be his stubborn
support of the Declaration
of Independence on the floor
of the Continental Congress
or preaching the importance
of education for all men.

City officials, the staff of
the U.S.S. Constitution, lo-
cal historians, high school
students and citizens gath-
ered Friday in the United
First Parish Church, the
"Church of the Presidents"
for the wreath-laying cer-
emony in honor of the city's

MISHA LEISTER, a senior
at the Woodward School for
Girls, was among the guest
speakers at the presiden-
tial wreath-laying ceremony
marking the 274th birthday
anniversary of John Adams.

most famous son's 274'**
birthday anniversary.

Adams was born Oct,
30, 1735 in what is today
Quincy, formerly the north
precinct of Braintree. He

was one of the signers of
the Declaration of Indepen-
dence and served as the first
American Ambassador to
Great Britain.

The large, colorful White
House wreath was placed on
Adams' tomb by command-
ing officer of the U.S.S.
Constitution, Timothy Coo-
per.

Cooper said he stopped
in his tracks a few weeks
back when he first visited
church basement where the
tombs of John Adams, John
Quincy Adams, Abigail Ad-
ams and Louisa Catherine
rest.

"The simplicity of the
room helped magnify their
greatness," Cooper said.

He believed Adams had a
special bond with the Navy,
having drafted the first set of
rules and regulations for a

THE ALLERTON WAY

Allerton House at Hancock Park, Quincy, MA
by Kelly Richards

A relative newcomer to
Allerton House at Hancock
Park in Quincy, Eileen Byrne
moved to her spacious new
apartment just this past
summer. She says, "I moved
from my family home, where I
had lived from the age of two.
My family was concerned
about me staying there,
especially after I developed
some vision issues." Eileen
took her family's concerns to
heart, did her research, and
moved to the Allerton House
assisted living residence.

Eileen Byrne, a resident of Allerton
House at Hancock Park and the
assisted living community's Activity
Assistant Lisa Puffer, share a hug.

Eileen has always been an
active person, enjoying her ^aa^^^^^mm
family, her career, participating in church
activities, traveling and playing sports. "I was
an avid golfer for 45 years," she says. When
her vision problems arose, Eileen joined the
Milton Council on Aging's Low Vision Group.
"I've met a lot of people through the Council.
In fart, I attended a two-week training
program at the Cartoll Center for the Blind
and had a wonderful roommate there. To this
day, not a week goes by that we don't talk."

Today, Eileen enjoys outings with her new
acquaintances at Allerton House, saying she
has met some wonderful people since she
arrived. Her recent trip to an apple farm is a
prime example. A self-proclaimed "picky
eater," she also has good things to say about
the variety of menu items in the dining room,
as well as the availability of religious services
and other ongoing artivities at Allerton House.

Eileen established herself as a hard-working
professional woman after completing her
education. An administrative/secretarial role
for the federal government brought her to
Washington, DC, working in the office of the

assistant secretary of defense
during the Korean Conflict. "I
loved working in Washington, "
she says. Eileen also worked
for the Massachusetts state
government, the New England
Regional office of the United
States Postal Service and the
Milton School System.

Family has always meant the
world to Eileen and she
enjoys visiting with her
siblings, nieces and nephews.
The family feeling at Allerton
House is one of the things
Eileen likes best. She says,
"I wanted to meet Mrs. Welch
■^■^■^^^^^ (founder of Welch Healthcare
and Retirement Group, which owns and
manages Allerton House) because 1 had read
about her and what she has accomplished. I
had the opportunity to do so at a luncheon in
honor of National Assisted Living Week.
Mrs. Welch's heart and soul are in everything
she does, and she has passed that on to
her children and to every staff member at
Allerton House. They are very kind, very
accommodating and always open to
suggestions. The Welch's have a strong
foundation based on family values and hard
work, similar to my own family. "

Kelly Richards is the Marketing Director at
Allerton House at Hancock Park in Quincy.
The 42-apartment assisted living community is
owned and managed by Welch Healthcare <&
Retirement Group, which is celebrating 60 years
of service to seniors. Call Kelly for a personal tour

man was about."

Misha Leister, a senior
at the Woodward School,
said Adams was a great in-
spiration to his cousin, Eb-
eneezer, who founded the
school .

She stressed Adams' be-
lief that every man should
have a solid education and
he was committed to educa-
tion. "Any history of John
Adams tells us he was a true
scholar," Leister said.

Mayor Thomas Koch
looks to Adams as an inspi-
rational figure in American
history.

"It's hard not to believe
there was no divine inter-
vention that brought to-
gether this great country,"
said Mayor Thomas Koch.
"Those of us in public life
look to John Adams for in-
spiration."

Peggy Baker, the direc-

tor of the Pilgrim Hall in
Plymouth, said Adams was
a man that got things done
and stepped aside to allow
Thomas Jefferson write the
Declaration of Indepen-
dence, a more "glamorous"
role than Adams' staunch
defense and avocation of
the document in front of the
Continental Congress.

Baker believed Adams
was "too honest" to be a
great president, but was the
warmest and wisest of the
country's founding fathers.
"Adams knew himself as
few men do," she said.

Arthur Ducharme, direc-
tor of the Historic Interpre-
tive Program, spoke of Abi-
gail Adams' influence on her
husband and the challenges
that buffeted them through
their lives. "They're one of
history's great romances,"
said Ducharme.

Text, E-Mail Snow
Alerts Coming This Year

It's that time of year.

With snow emergencies
and school cancellations on
the horizon as winter ap-
proaches. Mayor Thomas
Koch announced Monday
the city's residents can re-
ceive snow-related alerts
via text message or e-mail
by signing up at www.quin-
cyma.gov.

The alert system will
send out a text message and
e-mails as soon as snow
emergencies are declared
and when schools are can-

celled.

"We are constantly add-
ing new features to our web-
site to improve communica-
tion with our residents, and
this is another great way to
do that," Koch said. "1 en-
courage all of our residents
to take advantage of the alert
system and all of the new
features on our website."

The e-mail signup form
is among dozens of new
features on the new website
launched this summer, in-
cluding a regularly updated

calendar of city meetings
and events, an e-mail news-
letter, the ability to pay bills
on line, and dozens of new
downloadable forms and ap-
plications.

The site also boasts a
new system for submitting
and managing service re-
quests, from filling potholes
to replacing street lights.
The system will allow offi-
cials to streamline requests
to the right department, and
provides a tracking compo-
nent that will follow every
request until it is closed.

Isola To File Recount
In School Committee Race

Cont'd From Page I)
to be filed in the city's Elec-
tion Department by today
(Thursday).

There is no provision in
the city charter which man-
dates an automatic recount
when candidates finish
within a certain number of
votes of each other.

In last Tuesday's city
election for School Com-
mittee, Karl Roos edged
Isola by one vote to claim
the third seat. Roos polled city approximately $10,000.

• Ward 2: Isola 1,343,
Roos 1,048.

• Ward 5: Isola 1,799,
Roos 1 ,422.

• Ward 6: Isola 1,627,
Roos 1,533.

A total of 24,857 vot-
ers - or 44.72 percent of
the electorate - cast ballots
in the election Nov. 3. In a
recount, ballots are counted
by hand.

City Clerk Joseph Shea
said a recount will cost the

8,573 votes while Isola tal-
lied 8,572 votes. The other
two seats were won by in-
cumbent Anne Mahoney,
who topped the city-wide
vote with 13,977 votes, and
Emily Lebo who polled
8,701 votes.

The recount could be-
gin as soon as next Tues-
day, Nov. 17. Votes will be
counted in the second floor
conference room in "new"
City Hall.

count occurred in 200 1 when

The city's method of vot-
ing was the same in 2001 as
it is today. Ballots are cast
using the opti-scan method.
This system replaced the old
key-punch cards in 1996.

The last school commit-
tee recount happened in 1993
(when punch cards were
used). That year, Christine
Cedrone tallied an 8-vote
victory margin on Election
Night over Sean Barry in an
apparent win for the third
school committee seat. (Fin-
ishing in the top two spots
and wirming the other seats
were Rep. Ron Mariano and
Jo-Ann Bragg.)

Barry filed for a recount.
After the recount, Barry and
Cedrone were tied.

The decision then went
to a joint convention of the
City Council and School
Committee. Barry was
elected at the convention by
a 9-4 vote.

Asked if he expects the
vote to change in the Roos-
Isola recount. Shea said, "In
a one-vote win, anything
can happen."

The last recount occurred
in 2003 but that was for a
ward council seat and was
not city- wide. In the race
for Ward 6 councillor six
years ago, Alicia Gardner's
winning margin over Brian
McNamee had decreased by
one vote - from 26 to 25 -
after the recount .

Gardner served one two-
year term before stepping
down in 2005. McNamee
won the open Ward 6 seat
that year and was re-elected
to a third term last Tuesday.

Councillors, Commissioners OK Faxon Park Plan

Master Plan Presented

By LAURA GRIFFIN

City Councillors recently
joined Park Commissioners
in approving a master plan
for Faxon Park which, at 88
acres, now surpasses Mer-
rymount Park as the largest
parkJand in the city.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi initiated the
council motion on Oct. 19
after Kristen Powers, Direc-
tor of the Park Department,
presented the Master Plan.

Park Planning Associates
of Milton prepared the draft
which was approved by The
Park and Recreation Board
on Oct. 6.

Raymondi called the
Master Plan, "a vision for
generations to come" that
could take 1 5 to 20 years to
complete, but he pledged,
"This plan is not sitting on
a shelf."

"There is an awful lot of
excitement across the city,"
said Raymondi, adding that
of all his community proj-
ects, "None has provided
me with more satisfaction."

Raymondi congratu-
lated the Friends of Faxon
Park, describing them as an
"army of citizens, a cadre,
ready and willing to pick up
their shovels" and work to
improve the park and their
community.

Later in the meeting,
Raymondi identified over
five dozen residents who
participated in clean-up.
planning and meetings for
Faxon Park's future and
Powers complimented Brad
Croall, Ward 2; Joe Brill,
Ward 4; and School Com-
mittee member Dave McCa-
rthy for their work.

"It's important to have a
long-term vision for such an
important and historical par-
cel," .said Powers.

Both Raymondi and Pow-
ers acknowledged there are

no city funds available for
the Faxon Park Master Plan
improvements estimated at
$4.4 million.

"We're not seeking any
money," said Powers

However, both said they
would support efforts to ac-
cess state, federal and pres-
ervation grants for the proj-
ect.

Ward 5 Councillor Doug-
las Gutro, also, congratulat-
ed the friends' group, said
that Faxon Park has been
neglected and is in need of a
facelift but asked, "Would it
supercede other projects?"

Gutro described three to
four preservation projects in
his ward that are in need of
attention.

"TTiis is not an attempt to
put this ahead," responded
Raymondi, noting there's a
huge competition for preser-
vation funds. He called the
Master Plan, a blueprint for
"how this site ought to be
built out over the next 15-20
years."

"We'll have to be cre-
ative," said Powers who
highlighted such less costly
and immediate goals as
improved safety, signage,
stonewall repairs, a cross-
country running track, and
continuing an accessible
loop through all areas of the
park, as well as restoration
of the park's historical char-
acter and control of invasive
plant species.

Raymondi cited the need
for road and water access
for firefighting and public
safety.

Improvements can be
made inch by inch, accord-
ing to the report which
stressed the role of the pub-
lic in reporting vandalism
and undesirable behavior,
recommended the instal-
lation of lighting, speed
bumps, and bulletin boards.

THIS S I OiS t WALL - which encompasses 6,500 feet of Faxon
Park - was built by Quincy workers under the Roosevelt ad-
ministration's Works Projects Administration. Some repairs
and revisions are recommended in the Faxon Park Master
Plan.

Rematch More Like A Rerun

KOCH

PHELAN

The rematch was more like a rerun.
Numbers-wise anyway.

Incumbent Mayor Thomas Koch defeated challenger and
former Mayor William Phelan in last Tuesday's city election
in much the same fashion as he did when he unseated Phel-
an two years ago: by winning a vast majority of the city's
neighborhoods from
Squantum to Quincy
Point and many parts
in between.

In contrast, Phelan
won only a few of the
same neighborhoods in
those two elections.

Furthermore, elec-
tion reports from 2007

and 2009 show just a handful of the city's 30 precincts
changed hands while Koch rolled to a comfortable re-elec-
tion win in the first mayoral rematch in 75 years.

In many respects the numbers from 2007 and 2009 mir-
ror each other.

In his victory two years ago, Koch won 23 of the city's
30 precincts while Phelan notched only seven in his win col-
umn. This year, Koch carried 24 precincts to Phelan's six.

The vote totals from 2007 and 2009 are pretty close,
too.

Koch won by 2,051 votes two years ago, polling 12,672
votes to Phelan's 10,621. The percentages were 54.16 per-
cent for Koch and 45.39 percent for Phelan.

This year, Koch's margin was 1 ,955 votes (96 fewer than
2O07's margin); he polled 13,230 votes to Phelan's 1 1 .275.
The percentages were almost identical: 53.80 percent for
Koch and 45.85 percent for Phelan.

Even the overall voter turnout was very similar: in 2007,
44.05 percent of the electorate voted (23.586 voters out of
53.540 registered). This year, turnout was 44.72 percent
(24,857 voters out of 55.581 registered).

However, 2007 and 2009 were not carbon copies at the
ballot box when you look at the complete precinct-by-pre-
cinct breakdown. But pretty dam close.

By my tally (and I know former mayor and top-notch
political historian Frank McCauley is going to be checking
his figures and I'll be getting a phone call if I'm off), seven
precincts changed hands between 2007 and 2009. And three
of those precincts are found in Ward 1 .

They are:

Ward 1, Precinct 1: Phelan won in 2007 by 73 votes but
Koch won in 2009 by 29 votes.

Ward 1, Precinct 2: Koch won in 2007 by 8 votes but
Phelan won in 2009 by 90 votes.

Ward 1, Precinct 4: Koch won in 2007 by 1 13 votes but
Phelan won in 2009 by 122 votes.

Ward 3, Precinct 1: Phelan won in 2007 by 1 vote but
Koch won in 2009 by 28 votes.

Ward 4, Precinct 5: Koch won in 2007 by 83 votes but
Phelan won in 2009 by 2 votes.

Ward 5, Precinct 3: Phelan won in 2007 by 27 votes but
Koch won in 2009 by 19 votes.

Ward 6, Precinct 3: Phelan won in 2007 by 75 votes but
Koch won in 2009 by 93 votes.

The other precincts fell in the same win columns for
Koch and Phelan in both elections. Phelan prevailed in three
other precincts while Koch kept 20 precincts.

Here's a look at those numbers:

Phelan won these three precincts in both elections:
Ward 1, Precinct 3 (Spear Street area of Quincy Center,
upper Merry moimt near Mount Wollaston Cemetery) - by
42 votes in 2007, 89 votes in 2009; Ward 1 Precinct 5
(Houghs Neck) by 21 votes in 2007, 45 votes in 2009 and
his home precinct Ward 5 Precinct 1 (Presidents Hill - the
area near the Quincy Neighborhood Club) by 45 votes in
2007, 69 votes in 2009.

Koch's winning precincts and mar^iins of victory for
2007 and 2009 respectively:

In Ward 2: Precinct 1 (46 votes, 51 votes); Precinct 2:
(161 votes, 203 votes); Precinct 3: (86 votes, 89 votes);
Precinct 4: (120 votes, 106 votes); Precinct 5 (43 votes, 99
votes).

In Ward 3: Precinct 2 (31 votes, 117 votes); Precinct
3 (89 votes, 114 votes); Precinct 4 (141 votes, 174 votes);
Precinct 5 (H3 votes, 59 votes.)

In Ward 4: Precinct 1 (151 votes, 142 votes); Precinct
2 (63 votes, 55 votes); Precinct 3: (176 votes, 13S votes);

Precinct 4 (66 votes, 27 votes).

In Ward 5: Precinct 2 (140 votes, 195 votes); Precinct 4
(65 votes, 90 votes); Precinct 5 ( 169 votes, 167 votes).

In Ward 6: Precinct 1 ( 100 votes, 53 votes); Precinct 2 -
Koch's home precinct near Newbury Avenue - ( 170 votes,
147 votes); Precinct 4 (186 votes, 101 votes); and Precinct
5(15 votes, 79 votes.)

Not sure how history will remember election 2009. Cer-
tainly the fact it was the first mayoral rematch in 75 years
will be an important footnote. Phelan, who served three
terms as mayor after unseating six-term former Mayor
James Sheets by 17 votes in 2001 , made a spirited attempt
to win back the third floor office at City Hall. But like the
two other rematches in city history, the former incumbent
couldn't climb over the hump.

What was the major issue of 2009?

Depends who you ask.

Some voters told us it was taxes, Honeywell and the state
reimbursement for the new Quincy High School construc-
tion that propelled them to the voting precinct. Others men-
tioned education issues, after-school programs or something
else. Of course, without polling every single voter, it's im-
possible to pin-point what mattered most.

Since it was a mayoral rematch, the two mayors had to
defend their own records while attacking each other's. Give
Phelan credit for stirring the political pot and forcing pu-
blic debate on some worthy issues. Give Koch credit for
articulating the reasons why he - and not his predecessor
- should be the mayor for the next two years.

But perhaps what it boils down to is this: a majority of the
voters who decided they wanted a change in 2007 decided
against change this year. Instead, they opted to give Koch
another two years to work on his mayoral agenda that began
when he was sworn into office as the city's 33rd mayor in
January, 2008.

For the most part, voters have given the mayor a second
term down through the years. Four years is a better baro-
meter to measure the city's chief executive's performance
than two.

G

WARD l.had the highest turnout last Tuesday, and was
the only ward in the city to eclipse the 50% mark. Ward 4,
on the other hand, had the lowest turnout.

Here's the voter turnout breakdown by ward, and how
the mayoral candidates fared:

• Ward 1: 55% turnout (4,777 ballots cast, 8,687 regis-
tered voters). Phelan 2,504 votes - Koch 2,187 (53.20% to
46.46%).

• Ward 2: 38.36% turnout (3,711 ballots cast, 9,673 re-
gistered voters). Koch 2,101 - Phelan 1.553 (57.23% to
42.30%).

• Ward 3: 43.39% turnout (4,006 ballots cast, 9,233 re-
gistered voters). Koch 2.220 - Phelan 1,728 (56.02% to
43.60%).

• Ward 4: 38.24% tumout (3,610 ballots cast, 9,440 re-
gistered voters). Koch 1,954 - Phelan 1,597 (54.78% to
44.77%).

• Ward 5: 46.93% tumout (4,198 ballots cast, 8,945 re-
gistered voters). Koch 2,278 - Phelan 1,876 (54.67% to
45.02%).

Ward 6: 47.43% tumout (4,555 ballots cast, 9,603 re-
gistered voters). Koch 2,490 - Phelan 2,017 (55.16% to
44.68%).

a

WARD 6 PRECINCT 5 (votes at the Squantum School)
had the highest tumout out of the 30 precincts with 66.79%.
Ward 1 Precinct 5 (Saint Thomas Acquinas Hall) was se-
cond with 64.80%.

The lowest tumout: Ward 4 Precinct 4 (Lincoln-Hancock
Community School), 30.80%.

G

TUESDAY'S ELECTION also marked a political rarity
that has not happened here in 48 years.

Ward 4 Councillor Jay Davis, the sitting council presi-
dent, was defeated by first-time candidate Brian Palmucci.
Davis had sought re-election to a fourth term.

The last fime an incumbent ward councillor - who was
also the city council president - lost re-election before last
Tuesday was in 1961. That year, Ward 6 Councillor (and
council president) William C. Ellis was upset by Richard
W. Barry, a young Quincy lawyer. Barry's father, Richard J.
Barry, had served one term as a councillor at-Iarge in 1937-
38.

Scenes From Yesterday

Our Quick Delivery Service.

THE WOLLASTON COAL Company tliat was located
at 33 Weston Avenue alongside the railroad tracks in
Wollaston published this 1912 advertising postcard. The
company specialized in Lehigh and Lackawanna coals
from eastern Pennsylvania that were widely used at the
time in home heating furnaces. As the ad proclaims, this
new Quincy company was one of the first to use motor
trucks for quick delivery service. The business later be-
came the Ralph Coal Company owned by two brothers
from Wollaston. They continued retail coal operations at
this location until the late 1950s. Although they carried

a wide variety of coals and coke, Ralph Coal special-
ized in very hard and shiny Pennsylvania anthracite
they marketed as "Blue Coal." It was lightly sprinkled
with blue power for effect. The powder had nothing to
do with the fact that the coal burned naturally with a
very little flame that had a blue hue. Before the wide
spread use of oil and natural gas for home heating fuels,
there were over a dozen companies selling coal and coke
in Quincy. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail tmgalvin#

Morrissey Endorses Health Care Provider Protection Bill

Sen. Michael Morrissey
of Quincy announces his
support of Senate Bill 1753.
"An Act Relative to Assault
and Battery on Health Care
Providers."

This legislation would
enhance current Massachu-
setts law to protect nurses,
psychologists, physical
and occupational therapists
from physical assault from
patients.

"The existing law does
not protect workers who
are extremely vulnerable to
assault in the workplace,"
Morrissey said. The legisla-
tion would mandate that any
person who assaults a health
care provider be fined a
minimum of $500, jailed for
a minimum of 90 days, or
both. The legislation wouyld
allow the courts to impose a
penalty on a person who as-

saults a healthcare worker
to pay a fine of not less than
$500, or be jailed for a pe-
riod of not less than 90 days,
or both, at the discretion of
the court.

"It is my hope," Morris-
sey said, "that we will pass
this legislation as soon as
possible. By simply add-
ing these four professions,
we would extend the same
protections that ambulance

drivers and emergency med-
ical technicians are already
afford."

rhe bill, filed by Sen.
Michael Moore, is currently
before the Joint Committee
on the Judiciary.

"Some of the recent at-
tacks on our healthcare pro-
fessionals that have been
highlighted by the media
clearly demonstrate the need
for this legislation." Morris-
sey added.

Watercolor Art Exhibit At Crane Library

An art exhibit, featur-
ing the watercolor paintings
of South Shore artist Lilly
Cleveland, is on display
through Nov. 30 in the Co-
letti Reading Room of the
Thomas Crane Public Li-
brary, 40 Washington St.

Hours for viewing are
from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mon-
day through Thursday, from
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and
Saturday, and on Sundays
from 1 to 5 p.m

A public reception and
gallery talk will be held to-
night (Thursday) from 5:30

to 7:30 p.m.

The exhibit includes
still life, floral and land-
scape, and figures created
with translucent watercolor
paints, gauche, gesso and
charcoal .

Cleveland uses nontra-
ditional methods to create
unusual works, which incor-
porate color, shape and tex-
ture. Many of the paintings
are created over time, with
layers of bright wash, pa-
per stressing and scrubbing
with a toothbrush or other

stiff bristle brush, resulting
in an atmospheric and lumi-
nescent effect.

Cleveland, who resides
in Duxbury, is a juried art-
ist at the South Shore Art
Center, the Cape Cod Art
Association, and the New
Hampshire Art Association.
Her work has been featured
and won many awards in re-
gional and national shows,
and has been seen in several
New England museums.

Eastern Nazarene Col-
lege will present a family
concert by the Quincy Bay
Chamber Orchestra at 3
p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14 in
the Cove Performing Arts
Center on the college's main
campus in WoUaston.

Tickets for the concert
are $10 general admission,
with students and children
admitted free.

Presented as part of
ENC's Musica Eclectica
concert series, the perfor-
mance - directed by ENC
Professor and Quincy con-
ductor Delvyn Case - will
feature American composer
Aaron Copland's famous
"Appalachian Spring" Suite,
one of the most beloved
pieces of American classi-
cal music. The score, which
was awarded the Pulitzer
Prize for music in 1945, is
best known for its use of
the Shaker hymn "Simple
Gifts."

The performance of
"Appalachian Spring" will
be accompanied by a dis-
play of artwork inspired
by the music that was cre-
ated by second graders from
Quincy 's Beech wood Knoll
Elementary School . Dur-

ing the fall. Case worked
with Beechwood Knoll art
teacher Jonathan Bough-
ton to develop a program
in which students created
works of art while listening
to the various movements of
the Copland's piece. The re-
sulting works of art will be
projected on a screen while
the orchestra performs.

"In this way, the students
will get the thrill of really
collaborating with the or-
chestra to put on this perfor-
mance," Case said. "It will
be a unique experience for
them, for the audience, and
for the orchestra."

The orchestra will also
present the world premiere
of a composition for strings
by Quincy composer Jen-
nifer Leigh Harris. Now
a graduate student at the
world-renowned Longy
School of Music in Cam-
bridge, Harris graduated
in 2008 from ENC as the
school's first-ever music
composition major.

Founded in 2(X)8 by Case,
the Quincy Bay Chamber
Orchestra is the city's only
fully-professional orchestra.
The mission of the ensemble
is to present high-quality

performances of classical
music in the city of Quincy
in collaboration with local
institutions and organiza-
tions.

The QBCO is a "cham-
ber" orchestra in that it is
much smaller than a sym-
phony orchestra like the
Boston Pops or the Quincy
Symphony.

"The music that a cham-
ber orchestra plays can be
quite different from that
played by a large ensemble,"
Case said. "The smaller size
of the group also allows the
audience a much more inti-
mate and immediate experi-
ence of the performance, as
well as a more relaxed envi-
ronment for the concert."

In August the QBCO
opened its season with a
concert at the new Kennedy
Senior Center sponsored
by the Quincy Council on
Aging. The group will also
present a concert Feb. 13th
at the 1(XX) Artery Senior
Center and in June at Quin-
cy's Rag Day Parade.

Wollaston Garden Club
Visits Strawberry Banke

Nancy Nickerson of the
Wollaston Garden Club was
instrumental in the recent
day trip and tour of Straw-
bery Banke in New Hamp-
shire.

The tour, headed by
Jenny Isler, Horticulturist
at Strawbery Banke showed
the origin of the Strawbery
Banke. and the lifestyles
of European settlers in the
early part of the IT"" cen-
tury, the population growth,
as well as many pitfalls en-

countered during the years.

Also included in the tour
were some of the onginal
homesteads and gardens
that lent a good perception
of how households lived,
and how they dealt with and
planned survival gardens for
their family's livelihood.

Those attending were
able to walk through the area
to see the neighborhood and
how it was developed by the
homesteaders in those early
days.

As his major goal, Koch

reality of that vision under-

A firestorm erupted dur-

StreetWorks, LLC of White

that those promises could

On the local front, Koch

Honeywell Financial, and
an $18 million maintenance
contract tied to the savings.
"We're waifing to see
what the Inspector Gen-
eral is going to issue for a
report," Koch said, adding
later, "It's my hope we'll be

The only alternative is

During the mayoral

careful how we make cuts,
how we project revenues."

As one example, he cited
the veterans' department,
noting that he'd combined
two jobs but said. "1 can't cut

We're at a record number of
veterans' benefits."
Quincy Center Vision
Koch acknowledged the
campaign was a distraction

that the city require Street-
Works to bond the cost of
infrastructure improvements
which could run to $200
million.

Koch said that a bond
won't be necessary, as the
city will not pay for the in-

officials to resolve problems
with Honeywell.

He said the promises

past year.

"They said the same thing

what they've been saying to

lors that Honeywell would
correct all problems.

with Honeywell," Koch said

after noting, "We reached
the frustration point because
they weren't making good.
TTiere were too many un-
answered questions and no
detail."

Koch noted that Hamil-
ton didn't provide any de-
tails to City Council at their
meeting Oct. 26.

In addition, Koch said
he would review an Oct.
30 report published by the
Los Angeles Times that de-
scribes an Army audit of
a Honeywell contract and
suggests the federal govern-
ment could lose billions on a
number of other energy sav-
ings contracts.

Referring to a Honeywell
contract, that report stated,
"Over the 25-year life of the
project, the Army could lose
more than $100 million, ac-
cording to internal Army
documents."
Central Middle School

Koch will continue to
work on plans for a new
Central Middle School to
replace the 1 1 8-year-old
structure.

"One step at a time,"
is the way Koch said he
is approaching the school
building challenge. Despite
the "challenging financial
times, you can't bring ev-
erything to a stop. You have
to continue to work on these
projects."

In fact, the tough econo-
my could save the city mon-
ey, according to Koch.

"The flipside is, it's not a
bad time to be building be-
cause prices will be better.
Companies will be sharpen-
ing their pencils. Land costs
are cheaper. Bond rates are
lower."

As for possible contami-
nation at the chosen Han-
cock Street site, Koch said
the parcel will be thoroughly
reviewed by the state which
will assess its value and all
other issues.

"It's been a hotel for de-
cades, a restaurant and a car
wash. We'll be doing test-
ing of the land but we're an
old urban city. There's very
little virgin land.

"I don't know what level
is in there. I'm sure there's
something in there. How
that affects the value and
what the cost would be to
clean it up. We'll deal with
that when we go through
due diligence."

Campaign Aftermath

In the waning days of
the mayoral campaign,
Phelan raised questions
regarding a possible con-
flict of interest involving
Tom Clasby, Executive
Director of Elder Affairs.
"We're looking at that ques-
fion," said Koch, adding,
"We are looking at that issue
and we will make a determi-
nation."

"I know the opposing
camp had filed some docu-
ments and letters asking for
it to be looked at, at differ-
ent levels. 1 don't know
where that is at the state and
federal level.

"1 think it's been blown
out of proportion," said
Koch in support of Clasby
who served in the Phelan
administration and is serv-
ing in the Koch administra-
tion.

Koch said he believes the
questions will be resolved
but will wait for a report
from state and federal offi-
cials.

(Contacted by telephone
after the interview, Clasby
said his parents never sought
nor received any preferential
treatment, and have never
received any subsidies.

They "were on the list for
ten years and no one was dis-
placed as a result of their oc-
cupying an apartment. There
was an available apartment
the entire time for the family
from the Deep South.")

WRAPPED AROUND HER RING FINGER

All a man has to do to impress
a woman with the strength of his
feelings for her is buy her diamond
jewelry. Whether the piece consists
of half-carat earrings, a three-
quarter-carat pendant, or a three-
carat ring, nothing gets a woman's
attention as much as diamonds
do. Both men and women are in
general agreement that diamond
jewelry is "the ultimate gift of
love." Both the beauty of the gift
and its significance are bound to
create a sparkle in the eyes of the
person receiving it that is equal to
that of the diamond itself There
are good reasons why diamond
jewelry is the preferred gift for
engagements, anniversaries,

birthdays, and holidays. Diamonds

Quincy Politics

Koch is philosophical
but, obviously, glad the
election season is over.

"That's life. It's a tough
business. Politics. This is a
very political city.

"The people have spoken
again. We had a healthy win.
I'm grateful for the people
who supported me."

As for healing a divided
city, Koch was less than op-
timistic.

"I continue to reach out.
I've been very inclusive
in my first two years. I'm
not going to change," said
Koch

Koch said he welcomes
all, "Hopefully, over time
some of those folks will
respect what we're doing. I
can't worry about (the op-
position). We're going to
continue to make tough de-
cisions for the city."

City Council recently ad-
dressed a proposal to change
the mayor's term from two
years to four years.

Koch took a pass on that
the term issue.

"I'll leave that to the
voters," said Koch, adding,
"The best approach to that is
to have it on the ballot."

"This is a busy job as it
is. It's day and night. It's one
that 1 truly love and cherish.
Obviously, the campaign
becomes a great distraction
from the hours you want
to put in on those other is-
sues."

And while Koch ac-
knowledged the campaign
involved considerable time
and effort, he still managed
to find some humor in the
office renovation issue that
dogged him for two years.

Koch warned his visitor
not to sit in a broken chair
in his office but said he dare
not get it fixed.

If he gets the chair fixed,
he said, "It will be tomor-
row's headline."

Nick, Bangie Phillips And Family Meet Film Star

Adams Shore Supermarket
Scene Featured In ^The Box'

Councillors Plan To Discuss
Auditor Appointment^ Fios

By JOE REARDON

When Nick and Bangie
Phillips see the sci-fi motion
picture "The Box" later this
week, the film is sure to con-
jure up pleasant memories of
their brush with Hollywood
nearly two years ago.

The Phillips' Adams
Shore Supermarket on Sea
Street was transformed into
a 1970s market Ukrops
where a pivotal scene of the
movie was filmed with ac-
tress Cameron Diaz.

Diaz and James Marsden
play Norma and Arthur Lou-
is, a suburban couple who
receive a wooden box as a
gift. A mysterious stranger,
played by Frank Langella,
delivers the message that the
box promises the owner $1
million dollar with the press
of a button. Pressing the but-
ton, however, will cause the
death of another human be-
ing they don't know some-
where in the world.

The Phillips got a first-
hand look at the amount of
work that goes into filming
one scene of a major mo-
fion picture. "The reason
they picked us was because
the market was built in the
1970s," said Bangie.

To put the scene in the
proper time frame, both
the scratch ticket and ATM
machines were moved, the
freezer was restocked with
name brands of ice cream
and beer from the '70s and
traffic was rerouted outside
to allow cars from that gen-
eration to pass by.

A cigarette rack at one of
the cash registers had to be
raised because Diaz would
have had to duck under it
in the scene. Signs on the
windows had '70s prices of
items in the store.

"They didn't leave any

stone unturned in making
it look like the '70s," Ban-
gie said. "It was fascinating.
You just have no idea the
process they go through to
get everything just nght."

One woman came mto
the store a few days after
filming was completed ask-
ing if the eggs were still on
sale, not realizing the prices
reflected those of more than
30 years ago.

Outside the store in the
parking lot, a mock Christ-
mas tree business was set
up and when the scene was
filmed there was fresh snow.
The Adams Shore Library
can be seen in the back-
ground.

"They were lucky," Ban-
gie said with a laugh. "It just
happened to be snowing like
crazy that day."

We all make mistakes. The legal judgments stemming from

only question is: Are you going
to pay for yours? If you are a
professional who owns a business
liability policy, you should know
that it almost always excludes
coverage for professional errors.
Homeowners policies exclude
liability coverage for anything
that is business-related. So,
professionals and consultants are
strongly urged to purchase an
insurance policy that will provide
coverage in the event they were
to make a job-related mistake
that hurts a client. A professional
liability policy, also known as
"errors and omissions insurance,"
explicitly provides coverage for
professionals in their chosen line
of work. A comprehensive policy
will also cover defense costs and

a professional's responsibility for
the error.

At JAMES J. SULLIVAN
INSURANCE AGENCY, we
specialize in careful analysis
of each client's operations and
the crafting of a comprehensive
insurance package that protects
his or her business in the event of
an unexpected loss. Our policies
include errors and omissions
insurance. As an independent
insurance agency, we offer
competitive rates and prompt
settlements of claims. Please call
us at 617-328-8600 to schedule a
consultation. Our office is located
at 1 5 1 Hancock Street.

NOTE: Errors and omissions
coverage may save a professional s
reputation.

Diaz was the consummate
professional during filming
After a scene, she would
confer with director Richard
Kelly to see if there was any
way to perfect it with anoth-
er take. One scene, Bangie
said, went to 15 takes before
it was wrapped.

Diaz met the enfire Phil-
lips family and they found
her to be very unassuming.
"She was very business-like
when she was working but
she was very pleasant and
sociable," Bangie said.

Nick and Bangie plan
to get a group of friends
together to see the movie.
"We were just talking about
it last night," she said. "A lot

Welch Family Values Suit
Eileen Byrne Just Fine

THE ALLERTON WAY

Alleilon House ai >lancock Park, Quincy, MA
by Kelly Richards

A relative newcomer to
Allerton House at Hancock
Park in Quincy, Eileen Byrne
moved to her spacious new
apartment just this past
summer. She says, "I moved
from my family home, where I
had lived from the age of two.
My family was concerned
about me staying there,
especially after I developed
some vision issues." Eileen
took her family's concerns to
heart, did her research, and
moved to the Allerton House
assisted living residence.

Eileen Byrne, a resident of Allerton
House at Hancock Park and the
assisted liinng community's Actnnt)
Assistant Lisa Puffer, share a hug.

Eileen has always been an

active person, enjoying her ^,^^1^^,,^^^

family, her career, participating in church
activities, traveling and playing sports. "I was
an avid golfer for 45 years," she says. When
her vision problems arose, Eileen joined the
Milton Council on Aging's Low V^ision Group.
"I've met a lot of people through the Council.
In fact, I attended a two-week training
program at the Carroll Center for the Blind
and had a wonderful roommate there. lo this
day, not a week goes by that we dc^n't talk."

Today, Eileen enjoys outings with her new
acquaintances at Allerton House, saying she
has met some wonderful people since she
arrived. Her recent trip to an apple farm is a
prime example. A self-proclaimed "picky
eater," she also has good things to say about
the variety of menu items in the dining room,
as well as the availability of religious services
and other ongoing aaivities at Allerton House.

Eileen established herself as a hard-working
professional woman after completing her
education. An administrative/secretarial role
for the federal government brought her to
Washington, DC, working in the office of the

assistant secretary of defense
during the Korean Conflict. "1
loved working in Washington,
she says. 1 ileen also worked
for the Massachusetts state
government, the New England
Regic^nai office of the United
States Postal Serv^ice and the
Milton School System.

Family has always meant the
world to Eileen and she
enjoys visiting with her
siblings, nieces and nephews.
The family feeling at .Allerton
House is one of the things
Eileen likes best. She says,
"I wanted to meet Mrs. Welch
■■■'^■■■■■^^" (founder of Welch Healthcare
and Retirement Group, which owns and
manages Allerton House) because 1 had read
about her and what she has accomplished. I
had the opportunity to do so at a luncheon in
honor of National Assisted Living Week
Mrs. Welch's heart and soul are in ever\lhing
she does, and she has passed that on to
her children and to everv' staff member at
Allerton House. They are very kind, very-
accommodating and always open to
suggestions Lhe Welch's have a strong
foundation based on family values and hard
work, similar to my own family"

Kelly Richanis is the Marketing Director at
Allerton House at Hancock Park w Quimy.
The 42-apartment assisted living; commumt}' is
owned and managed Ir^' Welch Healthcare Si
Retirement Croup, which is celebrating 60 years
of service to seniors. Call Kelly for a personal tour

Faxon Park Plan OK'd

Cnnt 'd From Page 3

from the surrounding native
rock.

Powers outlined the
park's history which dates
back to 1885 when Henry
Faxon donated the 26 to 27-
acre centerpiece identified
as the "Heart of the Park"

Faxon Park has tripled in
size Ml its 123 years with ad-
ditions in 1935. 1940, 1998
and 2(K)7. With each growth
'-pun canie major improve-
ments and recurring con-
cerns icgarding vandalism,
debris, teen drinking ant!
lire

in 1972. then Mayor
Walter Hannon proposeil a
major plan which included
a children's zoo. senior
citizen's lounge, parking
for 200 cars and basketball
and tennis courts but lack
of funding cut that vision
to roadwork. the basketball
and tennis courts, and a new
Little League field.

FIVE SECTIONS

Faxon Park, located at
the top of Penns Hill and
accessible from Faxon Park
Rd., has five distinct sec-
tions which need new access
roads and a contiguous loop,
according to the report. The
park borders Braintree and
Viden Road.

Section One. The 'Heart

of the Park' includes the
major recreation facilities:
playing fields, a basketball
court, picnic shelter and the
park's overlook circle. The
report descnbes the area as
in generally gotxl condition.

Section Two. Graf-
fiti and trash mar the beauty
of the lO-acre 'Northern
Woods' which, under the
plan, would be left in its nat-
ural state with paths allow-
ing exploration and some
parking for the children's
playgnnind.

Section Three Two for-
mer quarries and the V\ PA
boundary wall highlight
this 19-acre area known as
'Highland Woods" which
borders residential areas and
Faxon Woods.

Highland Woods has the
highest elevations of Fax-
on Park and has become a
youth hangout and drinking
spot as well as a dumping
ground.

Last Apnl, volunteers fo-
cused on this section in their
spnng cleanup efforts, but
fire department officials cite
the need for an access road
as the dry woodlands and
youth activity also make
this area the primary site for
fires in the park.

Section Four- This 12.4-
acre parcel is "The Mead-

ow." but it's better known
as an early and unsuccess-
ful choice for the city's new
high school.

"This area was a former
dump and materials han-
dling area and suffers from
soil contamination," begins
the report de.scnption.

Powers said the section
must be capped.

Gutro asked Powers to
detail plans for decontamina-
tion and questioned whether
visitors are exposed to en
vironmental contaminants
m 1 he .Meadows which
encompasses one sixth of
Faxon Park.

Powers described work
by Wesson and Sampson to
identify contamination as
well as ongoing efforts to
get state or federal funding
for complete decontamina-
tion.

Section Five— This 18.7
acre property includes the
16 plus acres purchased in
2007 with Community Pres-
ervation funds as well as a
2.2-acre proposed acquisi-
tion.

Little maintenance is
anticipated for the property
which includes a wet mead-
ow and pond and would al-
low completion of a loop
connection for the entire
park.

Opinion

Healthcare Vote The ^Cruelest Attack'
On Senior Citizens In American History

By JAMES SHEETS

Saturday's vote by the
United States House of
Representatives marks the
crudest and most inhumane
attack on a group of vulner-
able and needy citizens in
American history. A group
that fought to keep America
and the world free; helped to
build the greatest American
economy in history; pro-
vided their children and all
others in the United States
with ihe highest quality o\
life in the worid, a senior
group called the "Great-
est Generation" by Tom
Brokaw, is now being asked
to make yet another sacrifice
by Congressmen who have
no shame.

These seniors are be-
ing told that they must now
sacrifice their Medicare
funds, money that has been
set aside for them to help
heal their bodies, to provide
greater longevity in life to
enjoy their children and
grandchildren longer, and
to allow them extra years
to live in dignity. They are
now being told they must
surrender $500-$600 bil-

lion dollars of their Medi-
care funds over the next ten
years so that healthcare can
be extended to others, .some
who do not want healthcare
or those who cannot afford
healthcare are unwilling to
work to provide healthcare
for themselves. After Con-
gress spent decades extol-
ling the virtues of healthcare
for the elderly and talking
about the hope seniors had
for a longer and better way
of life. Congress is now vi-
ciously taking it away. In
what little debate there was
on the healthcare bill in the
House. Democrats extolled
the virtues of Medicare
and asked. "What is wrong
with Medicare?" "It works
beautifully." Congress, on
Saturday, just showed every
senior what is wrong with
Medicare, they (Congress)
can cut Medicare funds any-
time they choose, rationing
senior care, and reducing
senior quality of life.

It is little wonder that
all ten Massachusetts Con-
gressmen, on July 21 , 2009,
signed and sent a common
letter to Henry Waxman,
Chair of the House Energy
and Commerce Committee,
expressing their concern that
the cutting and redistribu-
tion of Medicare funds away
from Massachusetts seniors
and hospitals could impact
the quality of healthcare for
our seniors since 70% of all
Medicare funds go directly
to the elderly. Yet with a
cold, heartless action, with-
out reading the bill, without

public debate on the bill and
without giving citizens the
opportunity to know what is
in the bill, they voted to do
just that. Their letter asked
that this cutting and redis-
tribution of existing Medi-
care funds be further studied
and that Congress and not
President Obama should be
responsible for cuttmg and
redistribution of Medicare
funds.

But, we seniors are told
we should fear not, Obama-
care will not forget us Af-
ter final passage of the bill,
we will receive a letter from
Obamacare informing us
that because of our age and
in accordance with new US
healthcare policy, it is time
to discuss our "advance care
options" with government
"healthcare planning con-
sultants."

Our letter will also ad-
vise that henceforth every
five years-or sooner if we're
diagnosed with a serious
illness-this panel of govern-
ment-selected doctors and
experts will "assist" us in
making further medical de-
cisions.

Congress is now substi-
tuting for family and God.
But, we should never for-
get that all power rests with
the people, and we can or-
ganize and vote out every
Congressman who voted to
reduce healthcare for our se-
niors and the "Greatest Gen-
eration."

(Editor's note: James
Sheets served six terms as
mayor of Quincy.)

For Spurring Action On Master Plan

Friends Of Faxon Park
Lauded By City Council

Bv LAIRA (iRIFFIN

It may or may not take a
village to raise a child, but
It tletinitely takes a village
to protect natural resources,
parks, and neighborhotxls,
according to speakers at a
recent City Council meeting
focusing on Faxon Park.

Kristen Powers, Execu-
tive Director ot the Park De-
partment, said community
support was the major fac-
tor in spurring action on the
Faxon Park Master Plan.

"it reinforces the need
for the plan," said Powers
who called the residents" en-
thusiasm ""uplifting."

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi described
large groups attending meet-
ings on Faxon Park and the
outstanding cleanup effort
la.st April when residents
arrived with ""barrels, bags
and shovels in hand" for the
park cleanup.

Faxon Park friends, also
cut the mile-long hiking trail
through from the Hazeltine

property into Faxon Park.

"" there's an awful lot of
excitement across the city
to do good work," said Ray-
mondi.

Ward 5 Councillor
Doug Gutro who has active
friends' groups in his district
said that friends' groups are
even recognized by state

agencies.

Gutro congratulated the
Friends of Faxon Park and
said such friends' groups
not t)nly improve areas, but
transcend the politics of the
moment and empower the
neighborhoods.

"They transcend politi-
cal administrations. " said
Gutro. "They create a local
sense of stewardship and
advocacy and empower the
neighborhoods."

Raymondi read and then
presented council com-
mendations to each of the
Friends attending the meet-
ing and read the names of
those who could not attend.
Among those saluted for

their work on behalf of Fax-
on park was Steve Perdios,
chairman of the CPC, and
his wife Courtney as well as
former police officer Frank
Calabro and his wife Carol
and Joseph and Virginia Per-
rone. They were contacted
after the meeting.

"It's important because
Faxon Park's the best park
in the entire city," said Per-
dios describing the Master
Plan as es.sential. "You've
got to have a roadmap for
the future."

"'1 live nearby and usually
1 walk the park every day,"
said Calabro who now takes
his grandchildren to Faxon
Park. "It's kind of gone
down since I was young."

Calabro said his father
helped build the stonewall
which is a major highlight
of the park interior, "The
wall goes around the whole
park."

As for the Master Plan,
Calabro said, "They've got
a lot of work ahead."

MEMBERS OF THE "Friends of Faxon Park" join with City Councilors after the new Faxon
Park Master Plan was submitted during a recent Council meeting.

Quincy High School Competes
In State Math Olympiad

Eighteen students from
Quincy High School's Math
Club recently took part in
the 46"' Annual Mathemat-
ics Olympiad Competition
sponsored by the Massachu-
setts Association of Math-
ematics Leagues and the
Actuaries' Club of Boston.

"This contest opens doors
for students who are inter-
ested and talented in math,"
said coach Evelyn Ryan. "It
challenges them to achieve
very high levels of profi-
ciency. The sponsors of this
test will be sure to contact
the students who excel with
information about college
scholarships and profession-

al opportunities in the field.
So I see it as a great college
and career pathway for our
students."

Math Club members also
compete annually in six New
England Math League com-
petitions and the Moody's
Mega Math Challenge.

"Quincy High School is
dedicated to teaching our
students the skills they will
need to compete in the 21"

century," said Principal
Frank Santoro.

"Problem-solving, using
systems thinking, making
judgments and decisions,
and reasoning effectively
are focal points in our Sci-
ence, Technology and Math
Academy. The Math Club is
an important co-curricular
component of that acad-
emy."

I would like to offer my sincere gratitude to everyone
thatvoted for and supported me. I am again humbled
by your show of confidence. It is encouraging to know
that so many of us believe that our schools are the
foundation of our great city. Now the real work begins!
I pledge to be a tireless advocate for Quincy's schools
and families. The next year will present us with many
challenges, both budgetary and social. I need your
voice as well as your support Immediately, a proposed
charter school threatens to weaken the fabric of
what we have accomplished as both, a school system
and a community. Budget cuts loom on the horizon
and we must come together to make sure our schools
are represented equally. To find out how you can help

23 Quincy Students Receive B.C. High Awards

NFPA HRE PREVENTION Week Speaker Mike CoUins with (from left to right) Lisa Braxton,
NFPA Public Education Project Manager, Sharon Gamache, NFPA Director of High Risk Out-
reach Programs, and State Rep. Bruce J. Ayers.

Fire Prevention Week Speaker Highlights
Challenges For People With Disabilities

As part of Fire Preven-
tion Week, The National
Fire Protection Association
recently hosted a presenta-
tion at its headquarters in
Quincy on the topic of the
common challenges faced
by people with disabilities,
especially in emergency
evacuation.

State Rep. Bruce Ay-
ers and Linda Kelly, of the
Quincy Commission on
Disabilities, were among
those in attendance.

Mike Collins, who is
quadriplegic, is the execu-
tive director of the National
Council on Disability, an
independent federal agency
charged with advising the
President and Congress on
the broad spectrum of issues
of importance to people of
disabilities.

During his talk he en-
couraged NFPA staff and
guests to become ambassa-
dors for each other's safety,
looking out for people who
don't have the physical
ability to check their smoke
alarms, for example, or to

escape m an emergency.

Collins related an in-
cident in which he was
trapped during a wildfire in
California and had to con-
tinue driving because he
knew emergency shelters
were not accessible to him.
Also, other people with dis-
abilities were affected.

He said notification sys-
tems did not include com-
munication methods that
would work for people with
disabilities. For example
emergency announcements
posted on the bottom of
the television screen in a
"crawl" format could not
be seen by people who were
blind. Also, deaf people
had trouble with notification
because news programs did
not always include subtitles
or sign language interpreta-
tion.

Emergency services per-
sonnel making announce-
ments through loud speakers
from emergency vehicles
could not be heard by people
who are deaf. Transportation
was not adequate for people
who could not drive or did

not have vehicles. Paratran-
sit systems were not operat-
ing in some areas.

He said many shelters
were inaccessible to people
with disabilities. Some peo-
ple were diverted to hospi-
tals and nursing homes even
though they didn't need
medical services.

Collins is the chairman
of the NFPA Fire Safety
for People with Disabilities
Task Force, which advises
the NFPA Public Education
staff on developing educa-
tional materials that are ac-
cessible, technically accu-
rate and include people with
disabilities.

These materials are free
and can be downloaded
from the website at www.
nfpa.org/disabilities. They
include "The Workplace
Safety for People with
Disabilities" brochure,

the "Personal Emergency
Evacuation Planning Tool
for School Students with
Disabilities," and "The Sce-
nario Card Lesson Plan for
Teachers of Children with
Disabilities."

Here's a change worth
noting; it takes effect Janu-
ary P', 2010, 1 touched
upon it a few months ago
in an article to give ever\
one a heads up It will be
enforced as individuals sell
their homes when they are
required to obtain a smoke
detector certificate from us
I hat certificate confirms
compliance with Mass. Gen
eral Law Chapter 148, Sec-
tion 26F That law is now
being modified by the intro-
duction of 527CMR Section
32 specifying the following:

It is no longer enough
to have working, properly
placed smoke detectors
withm your home to comply
with the law. You must now
have specific types as well.

There are two types of
smoke detectors, loniza-
Uon and photoelectric. The
majonty of those currently
found within residences uti-
lize ionization technology.
This will change.

Within 20-feet of an en-
try way to a kitchen or bath-
room, the detector must
now be of the photoelectric
technology. A bathroom
is defined as one having a
bathtub or shower.

Beyond 20-feet, if in fact
a detector is located that far
away from an entryway to
a bathroom or kitchen, you
must have an ionization/
photoelectric combo, or two

separate units, one photo-
electric and one ionization
detector side by side, fhe
20-f()ot measurement shall
include and extend into com-
mon areas ot multi-famil)
dwellings, if applicable.

In common areas, smoke
detectors are required on the
ceilings of the landings If
a landing is located within
2()-teet of a kitchen for ex-
ample, that detector must
be photoelectnc. if the de
tector within that landing is
beyond 20-feet. it must be
an ionization; photoelectnc
combo, or have one separate
ionization and one separate
photoelectric detector side
by side

Placement requirements
have not changed. Within a
residence, smoke detectors
must be installed, "..on
the ceiling of each stairway
leading to the floor above,
near the base of, but not
within each stairway, and
an approved smoke detec-
tor shall be installed out-
side each separate sleeping
area."

In a two or three family
residence, smoke detectors
must be placed on the ceil-
ing of each common land-
ing and on the ceiling at the
base of the cellar stairs. Bat-
tery powered is acceptable
within a two family, hard-
wired and interconnected is
required in three families

and above

1 have visited the retailers
within this citv to determine
the availabilitv of photoelec-
tnc detectors, combos in-
cluded Ihev are out there
1 have suggested to them as
well that there will be a run
on photoelectnc and photo-
electric ionization c(»mb()\
after the first of the vear
.Meanwhile. I recommend
that realtors determine their
source well in advance of
Januar) J^'

Determining the technol
og> of a detector is not easv
to accomplish when one
looks at the packaging alone
You must examine the fine
pnnt However, it is appar-
ent that the manufacturers
will be making the packag-
ing more user fnendly while
placing a "P" for photoelec-
tric and an "I" for ionization
on the front of packaging
and detectors alike

We will get through this'
Studies have indicated that
photoelectnc detectors are
more effective in detect-
ing most residential fires
Over nme, this new change
in code will catch up with
those studies when house-
holds evolve from using ihe
more prevalent ionization
detectors, to the more effec-
tive photoelectnc detectors.
.Meanwhile, we must work
through this change togeth-
er. Thank you for doing so.

Monument Dedicated In Honor Of Two Quincy Vietnam PO Ws

or guards, representatives of
Amencan Legion Posts and
other veterans' groups, sol-
diers and ROTC members
and the Quincy and Boston
Police Departments, who
marched through the mall as
bagpipes played the theme
songs of each branch of the
military.

Capt. Brudno passed in
1973, a few months after
being released by the North
Vietnamese at war's end.
His brother Robert fought to
have Brudno's name added
to the Vietnam Veterans Me-
morial in Washington, as he
felt the torture suffered by
his brother during intern-
ment contributed to his sub-
sequent death.

Brudno, who had gradu-
ated third in his class at
M.I.T., had helped the
POW's figure a way to com-
municate with each other by
devising a "tap" code. Sena-
tor John McCain, former
presidential candidate, was
one of the prisoners who
used this code.

Capt. Stratton was shot
down over North Vietnam
in 1967. A few months later
he was forced to participate
in a press briefing in Hanoi
where he intentionally made
wooden, robot-like bows,
appearing to be drugged and
unfocused.

This conference brought
world attention to the treat-
ment of POW's in Vietnam
and to the mind-altering tac-
tics employed by the North
Vietnamese in order to break
their prisoners.

In his brief address to the

audience Stratton said, "We
should never forget the im-
pact of combat and war and
losses on our families. . a far
greater impact than it is on
the actual warrior himself."

He urged the audience to
carry on the tradition of sup-
porting the families of those
serving overseas, and the
families of first-responders,
like police, firefighters and
emergency personnel.

Alan Brudno's widow
recalled the day, 44 years
ago, that an Air Force of-
ficial told her "Your hus-
band's plane has been shot
down over hostile territory"
as though it were yester-
day. She thanked Brudno's
brothers and all the Quincy
Vietnam Combat Veterans
for their constant support
and encouragement.

"Alan was very proud
to be a Quincy nafive, and
would bring me here often
to show off his home town
and to attend family occa-
sions. I know he would be
thrilled with all that is going
on today, and for that I thank
you most of all."

Lawrence Norton, presi-
dent of the Quincy Chap-
ter of the Vietnam Combat
Veterans Combined Armed
Forces, and VCVCAF
member and former Quincy
Police Lieutenant Thomas
Bolinder both spoke mov-
ingly of the sacrifices made
by Viet Nam veterans.

Alan Brudno's brother
Robert praised Quincy's re-
membrance of its veterans.
"This gesture by the City of
Quincy to honor two of its
native sons is not just for

them. You continue to bring
long-overdue respect to the
service of all of Quincy's 48
boys who were lost during
the Vietnam War.

" What you may not real-
ize is that you are also wel-
coming home all of the hon-
orable soldiers who served
in that thankless war."

Brudno told of a July
1966 event when, in viola-
tion of the Geneva Conven-
tion, Vietnam War prisoners
were marched through the
streets of Hanoi, where sol-
diers and citizenry were en-
couraged to kick, beat and
spit upon the captives, who
had been instructed to keep
their heads down in submis-
sion.

There is a photo of his
brother Alan Brudno, which
appears in the book "Hon-
or Bound" at the front of
the march and wincing in
pain because he was being
stoned, with his head clearly
up.

Guest speaker CDR. Paul
E Galanti, U.S.N, (retired)
who himself spent nearly
seven years as prisoner
of the North Vietnamese
and was good friends with
Brudno, praised the city of
Quincy for its dedication to
recognizing those who had
served their country.

He commented that au-
thor David McCullough
author of the John Adams
biography, which was sub-
sequently filmed as an HBO
special, had once told him
that he thought Quincy was
the most patriotic town in
the whole world.

Galanti recalled that

Honor monument in honor of two Quincy natives, VS. Navy Capt. Richard A. Stratton and the
late VS. Air Force Capt. E. Alan Brudno. From left: Robert Noble, World War II; and Vietnam

when being interviewed by
a TV documentary team and
asked to name three things
he learned while a prisoner
of war, he felt pressured to
limit his answer to just three
things,.

He responded that he first
had learned that he wasn't
as tough as he thought he
was. "Second," he said, "I
learned that no matter how
bad the torture, someone
else had it worse. And final-
ly, that there's no such thing
as a bad day when you have

a doorknob on the inside of
the door."

Also attending the cer-
emonies were State Senator
Morrissey, and State Repre-
sentatives Ayers and Tobin,
City of Quincy Councilors,
Mayor Koch and former
mayors Sheets, Hannon, and
Phelan.

Along with the names
and ranks of Brudno and
Stratton, the etching on the
granite marker reads: "Capt.
Brudno and Capt. Stratton.
Quincy Men courageously

endured years of capfivity.
Remained faithful to their
country and their fellow
prisoners of war. Returned
home with honor." At the
base the memorial reads
"Never surrendered. Never
forgotten. Never broken."

Designed by the A . Monfi
Granite Co., the monument
was unveiled by the Strat-
ton and Brudno families as
bagpipes played "Amazing
Grace," followed by a rifle
volley by the Second Ma-
rine Division.

A Job Well Done

On lucsday, Nov. 3. 2(K)9. at approximately 5:{K)
p m . the Drug Control Unit were conducting sur-
veillance in the Quincy
Square area

Detective Barkas was
situated in the area ot
Blockhuster Video, lo
cated at the torner of Han
cock Street and Idni Street
when a pu k up truck
pulled into the Hlockbuster
lot and parked a tew spaces
awa\ in plain \iew There
were two males in the
truck A few minutes later,
both males turned towards

each other over the center console as they looked dow n
ward

Detective Barkas notified Detective Ryan of the
situation and he responded to the scene. Detective Bar
kas observed the pa.ssenger raise his hands, holding
what appeared lo be a hypodermic needle. The driver
then briefly exited the vehicle and with the interior light
on, the Detective was able to see the passenger wrap-
ping some type of tourniquet around his left arm.

As Detective Ryan pulled into the parking lot and
parked his vehicle near the pickup truck, the driver
got back into his truck. Detective Barkas approached
the driver's side of the vehicle and Detective Ryan
went to the passenger side with badges displayed as
they identified themselves as Quincy Police Officers.
The passenger held the door shut in an effort to prevent
Detective Ryan from opening the door.

Detective Barkas ordered the driver to show his hands
and turn off the vehicle. Fhe driver then rolled up his
window, put the truck into reverse and slammed his
foot on the ga.s pedal. Detective Ryan then breached
the passenger window. As the truck traveled back-
wards, the detectives both jumped away to prevent be-
ing struck. Ihe truck, in reverse, with tires skidding
and burning rubber, briefly stopped and the driver then
sped off out the rear ramp and onto Mechanic Street.

Dispatch was notified that the suspect vehicle was
la.st seen turning onto Revere Road and that the two oc-
cupants were wanted. Detective Ryan jumped into his
unmarked cruiser and turned ontt) Him Street, where
he observed the suspect vehicle coming toward him
with lights off. Directly behind the vehicle was Officer
Whedbee who had just turned his blue lights on.

The suspect vehicle stopped across from 170 Wash-
ington Street, but only the driver was inside. It was
determined that the passenger exited the vehicle some-
where between the corner of Mechanic Street/Revere
Road and Him Street. A description of the passenger
was broadcast to area units.

Ihe driver, a 2.3 year old Weymouth resident, was
taken into custody without incident and charged with
"Assault by Means of a Dangerous Weapon to wit a
motor vehicle, failing to Stop for Police while Operat-
ing MV and Operating Recklessly so as to endanger."
Officers Barry DeHranco and John Mclsaac ob-
served an individual matching the description of the
passenger walking along Him Street, approaching Me-
chanic Street.

At this time. Detectives Duran and Keenan arrived
on scene to assist. This suspect appeared as though he
had been running and had fresh bleeding cuts in
the palms of both hands. Detective Barkas responded
to their location and confirmed that he was the passen-
ger in the vehicle.

This suspect was advised of his Miranda Rights and
a search was conducted. In his front right pocket was
a piece of broken glass, consistent with the glass from
the vehicle's passenger window . He also had a fresh nee-
dle mark on his left forearm, but no drugs were found
in his possession. Since there were no warrants, this
suspect was sent on his way.

Detective Men/., who had responded to the area
to assist, observed brt>ken glass on the ground outside
of 45 Revere Road. After speaking to a witness. De-
tective Menz learned that five to ten minutes earlier, a
young male jumped out of a truck, ran to the back of
his house and jumped over the fence

The witness pointed to the broken glass on the ground
and said, "that's exactly where he jumped out." Detec
five Menz observed a Samsung Verizon cell phone, bro-
ken glass, and a hypodermic needle on the ground. 1 he
cell phone and hypodermic needle were turned over
to Detective Ryan.
Nice Work!

excitement and enthusiasm
despite the unfamiliar com-
petitors and daunting dead
engine jetty starts which are
used extensively in Europe-
an and World championship
competitions, but which the
American pilots and crew-
were unaccustomed to us-
ing. All APBA (American
Powerboat Association)
championships are run using
a flying countdown start.

The I'S A-Feam con-
sisted of two drivers, I'ony

IS national champion with
a sidewa) s hat and a chip on

relief of the CS leam. the
Saturday morning drivers
meeting v\as held in the na-
tive language of Polish and
then translated to Hnglish
which IS the recognized lan-
guage of the DIM.

The qualifying time trials
required each driver to com-
plete three full laps of the
1S(K) meter (just under one
mile) circuit with no more
than tour boats on the circuit
at one time. The twelve fast
est were automatical!) ipial
ified for the tour heat tea
ture final with the last four
ciualitvmg posilKMis coming
from the top two hnishets ot
the two last chance qua! i tier
heals to round out the six-
teen finalists.

The two IS drivers
missed the first qualifving
cut b) a couple tenths of a
second with Allen in the
sixteenth pctsition and Lorn
bardo in twenty-second.
Ihis put them in the last
chance qualiHer elimination
heals. In heat 1 A of the last
chance qualiher Allen could
not seem to get off the Jetty
with the resl of the field, and
coming out ^^\ the first turn
in seventh position, knew he
had some vvcuk to do to get
to second place and a spot
in the final. The borrowed
Italian CISC hull Allen was
driving vsas running well
and on the move through
the pack when Allen tried

Bli.IA All

to duck under two drivers in
the corner on lap three. I'n
lorlunately. a spun boat was
sitting pr(.)ne at the buoy and
there was no chance of Al
ten missing it The crash put
Allen out of the race with
boat damage, thus dashing
his hopes ot being in the Ii
nal 16.

In heal IB. Lombardo
tared a bit better, finishing
his heats but not in the lop

able lo compete in the con-
solation tinal. Lombardo

Easy Tips For Eating Well On A Budget

In a tough economic en-
vironment, eatnig well on a
budget can be challenging

lemplmg low-cost, high
calorie comtort foods are
readily available, but often
lack important nutrients that
are sacrificed in exchange
for convenience

With a few key skills and
strategies from TOPS Club
inc. (lake Off Pounds Sen
sibly), the nonprofit weight-
loss support organization, it
can be relativel) easy to cre-
ate flavorful, well-balanced
meals without busting the
budget.

Eat In More
And Out 1a"ss
The IS Department
of Agriculture's hconomic
Research Service found that
spending on food away from
home accounted for nearly
half of every American food
dollar, or $!S65 billion, in
2(K)S.

While they retjuire more
planning, home cooked
meals are an excellent way
to minimi/e your grocery
bill and the> are typically
healthier than the options
you may find when dining
out.

According to Katie ( lark,
M.PH , R D . (\D.P: , As-
sistant Clinical Professor of
Nutrition at the University
of California - San Fran-
cisco and nutrition expert
for I OPS, "Bating at home
is a great way to save money
and create nutritious meals;
because you control exactly
what goes into your food,
you are mi)re likely to avoid
excess calones as well."

To save money while
cooking at home, try some
of these tips:

• Make at least one meal
meatless Choose recipes
that utili/e eggs or dried
beans like pinto or north-
ern beans - as the main pro-
tein,

• Double your recipes
and freeze leftovers or extra
amounts of meat, bread, and
cooked vegetables. Bring
to work for lunch or use the
excess ingredients as inspi-
ration for future meals.

• f:at dinner as a family,
or consider having a weekly
potluck with neighbors to
reduce the cost per person
of your meals.

• Clip coupons, avoiding
"new food" coupon gim-
micks that often are low in
nutritional value

• Subscribe to a healthy
cooking maga/ine.or peruse
recipe books for healthy
ideas.

Plan Meals For
The Week In Advance

A meal planning chart or
simple shopping list for the
week are great tools for the
budget minded, health-con-
scious consumer. Knowing
what you already have in
the pantry and what you in
tend to make ahead of time
reduces impulse spending,
saves time, and improves
the nutritional value of your
meal .

weeks menu. .Search "meal
planning charts" on the In-
ternet for a variety of tem-
plates and convenient shop-
ping tools.

ket circulars in your local
newspaper, or look online

our feet ofTthe ground, this heavy
responsibility falls to the second
metatarsal bone of people with
Morton's toe. Because the second
metatarsal bone is not designed
to absorb this much pressure,
the foot overcompensates b\
overpronating (rolling the ankle
toward the inside of the foot). As
a result, pain may be felt all the
way up to the spine.

ning.

f'ost meal plans on the
refrigerator door where the
entire family can see it and
refer back to it throughout
the week. This also helps
avoid the dreaded question,
'What's for dinner?"
Only Shop
Once A Week

In addition to shopping
at grt)cery stores. Clark rec-
ommends trying local mar-
kets and even dollar stores

"Deals often abound on
seasonal items, and you can
find a wide varietv of qual
ity produce, meat, and lish,"
she notes. "Butchers offer
occasional fresh or specialty
Items on sale. When you
can select the exact quantity
you want, you end up saving
more money than you would
with larger "value" packs
that you may not use or that
contribute unnecessarily to
your daily caloric budget."

.Some other suggestions
include:

• Only shop once a week
This makes it easier to avoid
unnecessary purchases and
encourages yt)u to stick to
yi)ur weekly menu.

• Have a snack before
you visit the grocery store.
Shopping on an empt)
stt>mach can lead to impulse
buying.

"'Shop the perimeter,"
remembering that the least
healthy and most i>verpriced
packaged foods are concen-
trated in the middle aisles.

• If fresh fruits and veg-
etables are cost-prohibitive,
try the fro/.en or canned
versions. Frozen produce
is often flash frozen at the
source, locking in nutrients.
Rinse canned vegetables be-
fore cooking to reduce the
sodium content.

• Buy generics, which are
often less expensive than
name-brand items.

• Choose prepared foods
with short ingredient lists
and minimal additives or ar-
tificial ingredients.

Use Unit Pricing
To Get the Best Value
Savvy shoppers know
that using unit pricing can
maximize their purchasing
power. Commonly listed in
small print below or to the

side of the total price and
as dollars or cents per unit
of weight - such as pounds,
ounces, or grams - unit pric-
ing can be a valuable tool
that helps you make an in-
formed choice about your
purchases

Grocery stores don't al-
ways post the costs on sale
Items; bring a calculator
with you to the supermarket,
or use the calculator on your
cell phone.

Buying "economy" or
■family size" containers is
sometimes, but not always,
a better buy Larger pack-
ages that have a lower cost
per unit than their smaller
counterparts are only going
to save you money if you
will truly eat all of the food
in the package. If it spoils
and has to be thrown away,
it could just be a waste of
your money.

Packaging Gets
Downsized

Be cautu)us of stores'
shrinking food packages
and their content while pric
es stay the same. Common
changes include packaging
redesign that holds fewer
ounces by way of indented
container bottoms, cartons
that hold 1/4 less of a quart,
and boxes that remain the
same size but actually have
smaller bags of product in-
side.

""I recommend taking
a few extra moments to
examine the containers of
your potential purchases be-
fore you buy," says Clark.
"If you're not careful, you
could be paying the same
amount for what used to be
one or two more servings,
ounces, or pounds per con-
tainer. Ensure that you are
getting the same products
that you have purchased in
the past."

loss education and support

lished more than 61 years

loss support and success.

Strength
Training OK for
Young Children

DKAR DR. DONOHl E: I
would like to give my lO-year-
old grandson some condition-
ing advice. He loves basket-
ball. It has occurred to me
that upper-body strength is
helpful in shooting long shots
and in positioning for re-
bounds. In high school, I had
a well-developed lower body
but a poorly developed up-
per body. This handicapped
me when shooting long shots.
I have added pushups to my
daily exercises, and this has
helped me in shooting three-
pointers.

My questions are: When
is a good time for a boy to
start building muscle? Are
there any exercises you
would recommend for upper-
body strength building for a
10-year-old? -yjV/.

ANSWER: The sports com-
munity, until recently, frowned
on strength training (ueightlift-
ing. muscle building, resistance
exercise) for children who had
not reached puberty They
thought that children, before
the male hormone surge that
takes place at puberty, would
not benefit from it. It's been
shown that they do. and that
children as young as 7 show
improvement in strength.

The .sports community also
feared that weightlifting ptised
a health threat to young chil-
dren whose bones are not com-
pletely calcified. Young bones
have growth plates, sections
of btme that have yet to be-
come real bone. Growth plates
permit h)one elongation. These
areas are areas of weakness. A
well-supervised, well-designed
weighUifting program doesn"t
injure growth plates. In fact,
such a program protects chil-
dren from common sports inju-
ries. All this applies to girls as

quired. Results will be sent

ing all food or drinks except
water, is required.

or $40 for both.

well as boys.

Your grandson can do the
same exercises you do with
less weight Your pushups are
a gcKxl example Body weight
IS the weight being hoisted.
Chin-ups are another strength-
building exercise in which
body weight is the stimulus
for muscle growth. He also can
lift barbells and dumbbells. He
should start with a weight that
he can lift 12 consecutive times
without straining. When he can
perform two sets of 15 consec-
utive lifts, you can increase the
weight by one to 3 pounds and
go back to the 12 lifts. Barbell
and dumbbell curls and bench
presses are gcxxl upper-h)ody
strength-building exercises.

A visit to the local library
will pay off with books that
show the details of many
strength-building exercises.

DEAR DR. DONOHIE:
A TV doctor claimed it is
better to eat a big meal at
lunchtime. If you eat a big
meal at dinnertime, you go to
bed without burning it off. I
thought weight depended on
total daily calorie intake ver-
sus total daily calorie burn-
ing, without regard for the
time of the day. Am I wrong?
-B£.

ANSWER: Tm with you
This advice is similar to the ad-
vice not to eat anything after 6
p m becau.se those late-in-the-
day calories aren't burned when
you sleep. Calorie-burning is a
round-the-ckx:k business, and
calories eaten at 10 p.m. can be

burned the next day at 10 a.m.

'An Honor To Head This Department'

Joseph Barron Sworn In
As Quincy 's Fire Chief

By JOE REARDON

Joe Barron remembers hang-
ing around the fire department
when his father Wilham was
working. He knew early on that
he wanted nothing more than to
fight fires.

"Ever since I was a young
boy, anyone who ever knows me
knows I wanted to be a firefight-

er," said Barron.

Barron took a big step up in
the ranks yesterday when he was
sworn in by City Clerk Joe Shea
as the new fire chief during a cer-
emony at City Hall on luesday.

Barron was nominated by
Mayor Thomas Koch in Septem-
ber, one of three candidates for the
position. Koch said Barron's expe-

nence m the fire department and
the respect shown to him by the
city's firefighters were key fac-
tors in his decision.

"It's really an honor to head
this department," said Barron,
whose wife Patricia pinned the
chief's badge on his dress uni-
form him after being sworn in.

PLAYING THE PLATINUM CARD

The popularity of platinum
jewelry reached its zenith in the
early 1 900s, but its use was severely
restricted during the Second
World War. Today, this noblest of
precious metals has re-exerted its
hold over subsequent generations
with its long list of advantages. It
is preferred by m£iny because its
purity virtually eliminates the skin
reactions that may be associated
with lesser jewelry containing base
metals. In addition, platinum will
not wear down or abrade like gold.
Moreover, because it is stronger
than gold, it is the preferred
metal for securing gemstones in
prong settings. When the strength,
purity, and enduring white luster
of platinum are all taken into
account, this precious metal stands

in a class by itself

No other metal is as distinctive
to own and wear as platinum. Its
lustrous sheen and rare beauty are
coveted worldwide. Whether you
are choosing an engagement ring,
diamond earrings, or a necklace or
bracelet, you will find shimmering,
sophisticated platinum designs
at 1402 Hancock Street, Quincy
Center In fact, you'll find fine
jewelry of both platinum and gold
in unique, one of a kind designs,
set with enticingly beautiful
precious gemstones. And if you
don't see what you're looking for
in our displays, discuss custom
designing a special piece created
to your specifications. PH: 617-
773-3636.

Veterans day gatherings over
the years. I, having been in
Quincy only a short time,
have been to this great loca-
tion for the last seven years,
along with many of you. 1
am not sure what prompted
Tom (Stansbury - Quincy 's
Veterans' Services director)
to ask me to speak today,
but I accepted without a mo-
ment's hesitation.

Throughout my life, 1
have been blessed to work
with many veterans, in the
service and out. 1 firmly
believe that veterans are the
central thread in the strong
fabric that binds our society.
Our nation honors veterans
in many different ways.

We bestow medals and
ribbons for their heroic or
long lasting actions.

We build museums to
house the memorabilia of
great accomplishments,
highlighting remembrances
of valor in time of war and
in time of peace.

We build monuments
that reflect and depict the
struggles and sacrifice of
the men and women of our
armed services.

In addition, with heavy
heart, we build memorials
to honor those who did not
return from the battles to
preserve our freedom.

While in the Air Force,
I served a combat tour in
Vietnam. The wall, do I
need say more, in Washing-
ton D.C., is one memorial
that is close to the heart of
my generation of warriors.
Each generation has their
own, the one that tweaks
at the heart whenever it is

one I believe transcends all
others, one honoring of our
veterans' service. It is the
Tomb of the Unknowns.

I returned safely from
Vietnam. Many did not, and

many, over 2000, remain
unaccounted, still listed as
missing in action. 1 hope
that our nation will con-
tinue the quest to determine
these warriors' fates. With

advances in technology,
as these men and women
return, we should have no
more unknowns. This is a

Isola Ties Roos Early In School Committee Recount

Expected To Be Finished Wednesday

The recount for the third
seat on the Quincy School
Committee from the Nov.
3 election showed a tie be-
tween Karl Roos and Bar-
bara Isola Tuesday evening
as The Quincy Sun went to
press.

Roos finished one vote
ahead in the Nov. 3 election
over Isola: 8,573 votes for
Roos and 8^72 votes for
Isola.

However, one provi-
sional ballot opened just as
the recount got underway in
the second floor conference
room of City Hall went to
Isola. Six provisional ballots
had gone through to the Sec-
retary of State's Office and
two were found registered.
Shea said.

Ballots in Ward 1 were
recounted just as the Sun's
deadline neared Tuesday
evening. Shea said he ex-
pected the slow and method-
ical recount would go as late
as 10 p.m. Tuesday evening
and continue Wednesday
morning.

Among those overseeing
the recount were the city's
Board of Registrars, Elec-
tion Department staff, war-
dens and clerks. Candidates
and their lawyers, represen-
tatives and observers were
also part of the recount pro-
cedure.

Last week, Isola turned in
the necessary 60 signatures
( 10 in each of the city's six
wards) to the Quincy Elec-
tion Department to set up

Tuesday's recount. Roos
also submitted signatures
in order to make sure the
recount would involve all
six wards. If he hadn't, Iso-
la could have stopped the
recount if she had pulled
ahead. Shea said.

In the event of a tie, a
joint convention of the City
Council and School Com-
mittee would convene and
vote to select the winner be-
tween Isola and Roos.

"There would be no re-
count of a recount," Shea
said, adding the candidate
on the short-end of a recount
could take the matter to Su-
perior Court.

A total of 24,857 vot-
ers - or 44.72 percent of
the electorate - cast ballots

THE HISTORY CHANNE

•On Nov. 27, 1095, Pope
Urban II makes perhaps the
most influential speech of
the Middle Ages, giving
rise to the Crusades by call-
ing all Christians in Europe
to war against Muslims in
order to reclaim the Holy
Land. Between 60,000 and
100,000 people responded
to Urban's call to march on
Jerusalem.

• On Nov. 28, 1914, the

New York Stock Exchange
reopens for bond trading
after nearly four months,
the longest stoppage in the
exchange's history. The
outbreak of World War I in
Europe forced the NYSE to
shut its doors on July 31,
1914, after large numbers
of foreign investors began
selling their holdings.

• On Nov. 26, 1922, car-
toonist Charles M. Schulz is
bom. In 1947, Schulz began
drawing a comic strip for
the St. Paul Pioneer Press
called "L'il Folks," featur-
ing Charlie Brown and his
gang of friends. In 1950,
after several rejections,
Schulz sold syndication
rights to United Features,
which renamed the strip
"Peanuts."

• On Nov. 23, 1936, the

first issue of the pictorial
magazine Life is published,
featuring a cover photo of
the Fort Peck Dam by Mar-

garet Bourke- White. Life
was an overwhelming suc-
cess in its first year of pub-
lication. Almost overnight,
it changed the way people
looked at the world.

•On Nov. 29, 1942, cof-
fee joins the list of items ra-
tioned in the United States.
Rationing was generally
employed to guarantee a
fair distribution of resourc-
es and to give priority to
military use. All together,
about one-third of all food
commonly consumed by ci-
vilians was rationed at one
time or another during the
war.

•On Nov. 24, 1971, a hi-
jacker calling himself D.B.
Cooper parachutes from a
Northwest Orient Airiines
727 into a raging thunder-
storm over Washington
State. He had $200,000 in
ransom money in his pos-
session. Cooper's fate re-
mains a mystery.

• On Nov. 25, 1995,

WTiitney Houston's song
"Exhale" debuts at the top
of the charts. It was the
third Houston single to top
the charts on the day of its
release. Houston grew up
singing in a church choir
and landed professional
management by the time
she was 15.

His career in public service began when Richard
Nixon was in the White House, Watergate was
just a hotel in Washington, D.C. and the Boston Bruins
were a few months away from winning their second
Stanley Cup in three years.

The year was 1972 and the public
servant: 24-year-old Daniel Raymon-
ds

Now, nearly 38 years later, Ray-
mondi is the dean of the City Coun-
cil as its most senior member and is a
fixture in local politics. He has served
on the school committee or as a ward
councillor with six mayors: Walter Hannon, Joseph
LaRaia, Arthur Tobin, James Sheets, William Phelan
and Thomas Koch.

If Dan Raymondi were a TV show, he'd be Meet
the Press or some other long-lasting program. His ca-
reer in public service spans parts of four decades - the
1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. His service will reach
a fifth decade when he is sworn in again as Ward 2
councillor Jan. 4, 2010.

This year, he'll complete his 28* year in public
service in Quincy. That consists of eight years on the
School Committee and he'll wrap up his 20'*' year as a
Ward 2 councillor at the end of this year.

With his election to an overall 1 1''' term as Ward 2
councillor on Nov. 3, Raymondi is also approaching
a personal milestone and membership in an exclusive
"club" in local government. When he completes his
11"' term in 2012, Raymondi will become just the third
public official in Quincy to serve 30 years in elected
office.

Only two other public servants in Quincy 's 121-
year history as a city have reached the 30-year club.

Topping the list is the Dr. Nathaniel S. Hunting who
served 36 years on the Quincy School Committee. In
second place is former Mayor Frank
McCauley with 32 years. McCauley
also holds the distinction of being the
only resident to be elected to all foiir
offices: mayor, school committee,
councillor at-large and ward council-
lor. McCauley served 8 years as may-
or, 12 years as councillor at-large, 4 as
Ward 1 councillor and 8 years on the
school committee.

Raymondi 's political career began in 1971 while he
was a student at Boston College Law School. That fall,
Raymondi - a former football standout at Quincy High
School and Holy Cross - won his first election: a four-
year term on the Quincy School Conmiittee. His term
began in January, 1972.

In 1975, Raymondi won the Ward 2 councillor seat
vacated by Clifford Marshall who was elected sheriff
of Norfolk County in 1974. Raymondi was re-elected
in 1977 and 1979.

In 1981 , Raymondi vacated his ward seat to run for
the open mayor's seat after incumbent Arthur Tobin
announced he would not seek re-election. At the end of
an intense campaign, Raymondi came up short bowing
to fellow city councillor Frank McCauley.

But in 1992, Raymondi returned to local politics
and won a seat on the Quincy School Committee. In
1995, he ran again for the Ward 2 council seat, this
time left vacant by the retiring Ted DeCristofaro. Ray-
mondi won that election and has been re-elected seven
consecutive times.

A skilled orator and an accomplished campaigner,
Raymondi has long been an advocate for improving
the quality of life for his constituents as a ward coun-
cillor. During his time on the school committee, Ray-
mondi was instrumental in expanding and upgrading
school facilities. It was during his second tfirm on the
school committee that he, along with fellow School
Committeeman Ron Mariano, spearheaded the effort

McCAULEY

to construct the new Clifford H. Marshall elementary
school in Quincy Point.

Dan Raymondi and local government: hard to imag-
ine one without the other.

HOW EXCLUSIVE is the 30-year club? The num-
ber of individuals who have served in local municipal
offices (mayor, councillor at-large, ward councillor
and school committee) will reach 478 when the city's
inauguration ceremonies are held Jan. 4. And of that
group, there are only 14 individuals who have served
20 or more years. So just getting to the 20-year mark
is a milestone in itself.

Besides Hunting, McCauley and Raymondi, here
are the other 1 1 members of the "20 Year Club":

• Frank Anselmo - 29 years: all on the Quincy
School Committee.

• James A. Sheets - 28 years: mayor 12 years; ward
councillor 16 years.

• John J. Quinn - 24 years: councillor at-large.

• Joseph J. LaRaia - 22 years, 5 months: mayor 2
years; councillor at-large 14 years, 5 months; ward
councillor 6 years.

• Charles A. Ross - 22 years, 3 months: mayor 9
years and 3 months; councillor at-large 9 years; ward
councillor 4 years.

• Amelio Delia Chiesa - 22 years: mayor 8 years;
councillor at-large 8 years; ward councillor 6 years.

• Beatrice Walker Nichols - 21 years: school com-
mittee.

• Thomas S. Burgin - 20 years, 5 months: mayor
7 years, 5 months; councillor at-large 16 years; ward
councillor 4 years.

• Carl W. Anderson - 20 years: councillor at-large
16 years; ward councillor 4 years.

• A. Wendell Clark - 20 years: School Committee.

• Charles T. Sweeny - 20 years: School Commit-
tee.

A CAMPAIGN RALLY for former Quincy city
councillor, current State Treasurer and now an Inde-
pendent candidate for governor Tim Cahill will be
held tonight (Thursday) from 7 to 9
p.m. at the Quincy Elks, 254 Quarry
St., Quincy.

Admission is free. All are wel-
come.

Cahill, who will speak at the rally,
announced his gubematorial bid in
September. He began his career in
public service when he was elected a
Quincy councillor at-large in 1987. He was re-elected
five times. Cahill also served as Norfolk County trea-
surer before being elected state treasurer in 2002. He
was re-elected state treasurer in 2006.

Q

FROM TIME to time I'll research local political
history by reaching for Quincy, Massachusetts: A Po-
litical History, ] 889-2000, written by former Mayor
Frank McCauley. It's a tremendous resource featur-
ing recaps of local elections, selected biographies and
other political topics and information.

The book is available at the Quincy Historical So-
ciety.

Frank's been encouraged by some to write an ad-
dendum to the book chronicling the last 10 years in
local politics. Certainly the mayoral elections of 2001 ,
2007 and 2009 would make good copy.

Any chance Frank?

HOW DO YOU feel about a four-year mayoral
term?

Residents will have a chance to express their views
and opinions about amending the city's charter to ex-

VER SH

PBUILDING CO., QUiNCY, MASS.

THIS IS A 1907 real photo postcard showing the plant of
the Fore River Shipbuilding Company in Quincy Point.
A fellow who worked in the building with the arrow
mailed it to a friend in Maine. The view is from South
Street looking south toward Weymouth; Bent Creek is
in the foreground. Over the years the creek was partially
filled, substantially widened and dredged to create large
shipbuilding basins. Today, the USS Salem is moored
in the waterway far to the left of this picture. The only
thing remaining in this 100-year-old view is the large

machine shop building with the arrow in the center. It
has been used in recent years for scenes in movie films.
The large overhead crane visible over the buildings on
the right was later the site of the Goliath crane is now
also gone. The large crane on the gantry dock on the left
is on the site of today's New England Fertilizer Plant.
The little sailboat in the center would be pretty close to
the railroad tracks that now run across the foreground

Supports A Longer Mayoral Term

Nothing, save a coup
d'etat, will delay or stop an-
other election for mayor of
Quincy in two years. We can
expect to see the campaign
signs rooting for their pre-
ferred candidate in about a
year's time.

Benjamin Franklin wrote
a book that can be read dur-
ing a lunch break pertain-
ing to general economics: "
The Way to Wealth." A must
read for anyone who aspires
to increase their net equity
or wishes to flaunt a more
impressive financial self-
worth. Mr. Franklin stresses
that by reducing waste, time,
and energy, and making wis-
er monetary decisions, too,
the net gain in economics, is
more valuable.

A longer tenure for mayor
is inevitable. Fifteen years
would probably appeal to
the next winner, but not to
the supreme court - public
opinion. Three years may be
adequate. A campaign not
only taxes the resources of
the sitting mayor, equally
important, it taxes the very
city in which he is repre-
senting as the executive ad-
ministrator.

Former Mayor Phelan, is
learned in the profession of
jurisprudence. Keen on the
value of our adversary sys-
tem, and not unacquainted
with the value of strategic
offense, he delivered a vol-
ley of charges, insinua-
tions, innuendos, half-truths
and what not to tax Mayor

Koch's resources. Koch was
compelled to defend his po-
sition. If the candidate's per-
sonal dollar amounts spent
on the mayor's race alone
doesn't flabbergast Quin-
cy's taxpayers, consider the
amount of the city's time
and money consumed from
an incumbent's defense of
his position!

When a mayor is com-
pelled to weigh time for ad-
ministration policy, versus
his own interest to canvass
for votes, the essence of time
spent, both physically and
mentally, will mirror per-
sonal interest. Cultivating
a political position, despite
what a candidate may assert
is not an altruistic trait; con-
sult with the respected testi-
mony of the second entry of
Ecclesiastes.

The Mayor's Office
and the City Council will

demonstrate political apti-
tude addressing this issue
promptly. Essentially it is an
economic issue.

A longer term is inevita-
ble. Two years concept was
ample time in the past. Now
it is not enough for a mayor
to establish momentum to
address a wider scope of
relevant issues. A longer
term will afford us, and the
mayor, a fair opportunity to
appreciate aptitude without
the assumed distractions of
an election approaching so

soon.

Changing the time space
will not be ex post facto.
For those who did not vote
for Mayor Koch or agree
with his political convic-
tions, rest assured. Whether
or not the established tenure
is modified, and hopefully it
will, we will see a mayor's
campaign race in two years.

And may this please the
court .

'Christmas Time In Ireland Show' Dec. 6

At a recent gathering at my daughter Su-
zie's house, there was a lavish buffet, and
one of the dishes was so different that 1 had
to get the recipe from our friend Pam. It is a
dehcious way to serve potatoes for Thanks-
giving instead of the usual mashed potatoes.

Pam said she got it from the Manet Health
Care Center's cookbook. It is easy to prepare
and can be done ahead of time.

POTATO CASSEROLE

16 ounces of sour cream

2 cans of cream of potato soup

1 cup chopped onion

I bag of hash brown frozen potatoes

Mix all of the ingredients together until

gree oven for one hour and a half.

Since we are in the Thanksgiving mode,

HAMMERTOES

l^fP^

617-^:7-2' 0100

Hammertoes are a com-
mon toe deformity in which
the middle of the toe bends
upward, resulting in foot pain.
Hammertoe is caused by a
muscle imbalance in the foot.
Once it begins to form, it is
progressive and ultimately be-
comes rigid and fixed. Due to
the configuration, the toe usu-
ally develops a painful callous
on the top. It may also cause
a callous under the ball of the
foot. Depending on the sever-
ity of the pain, surgery may be
necessary in order to straight-
en the toe. One procedure
entails removal of the largest
part of the middle joint in the
toe, allowing it to straighten
out. Ultimately, the patient can
anticipate a good result.

Don't despair if surgery is
recommended for hammer-
toes or any other pediatric
condition. Although the prob-

lems haven't changed all that
much, pediatric procedures
have greatly advanced over
the past few years. If you are
the victim of hyperpronation,
for instance, you might want to
know that I am one of the only
podiatrists in Massachusetts
with the advanced training
necessary to perform HyPro-
Cure™, a surgical procedure
used to eliminate the exces-
sive, abnormal motion of the
foot and ankle. We're located
at QUINCY fy/lEDICAL CEN-
TER, with office hours also
available at 999 North Main
St., in the Randolph Medical
Office Building, and Milton
Medical Building in Suite 221 .
PH: 781-986-3668.

HINT: Absorbable pins may
be used in hammertoe sur-
gery. They hold the area in
place and dissolve in about
six months.

Bellotti Not Running For State Auditor;
Norfolk County Sheriff Seeks Re-Election

Norfolk County Sheriff
Michael Bellotti will not
seek the open state auditor's
seat and instead will focus
on seeking a third term as
sheriff next fall.

Joseph DeNucci, who
has held the state auditor's
post since 1987, announced
on Monday he would not
seek re-election next year.

Bellotti, considered

a potential candidate for
state-wide office by politi-
cal observers, told the Sun
Monday that he is focus-
ing on running for a third
six-year term as sheriff in
2010.

"Thejobof sheriff is very
important because of the im-
pact it has on the muncipali-
ties in Norfolk County in
terms of our senior citizen
and youth programs as well
as our re-entry with inmates
program. We've also intro-
duced cost-saving measures
while downsizing staff.

MICHAEL BELLOTTI

"Being sheriff is a great
job and I am focusing on
my re-election campaign in
2010," the Quincy Demo-
crat said.

Bellotti, a former state
representative, was elected
Norfolk County Sheriff in
1998 when he defeated Re-
publican Jack Flood. Flood
had been appomted sheriff
by then Gov. William Weld
to fill the unexpired term of
longtime Sheriff Clifford
Marshall who died of cancer
in August of 1996.

Marshall had served as

sheriff since 1974. He was
known as an innovative cor-
rections official who opened
the first "highway jail" on a
median strip on Route 128
m Dedham.

DeNucci 's decision to
not seek re-election will set
off a political scramble to
fill his seat. However, the
liit of potential candidates
may include just one from
the South Shore: former
Braintree State Rep. Su-
zanne Bump.

Bump is the .secretary
of the Executive Office of
Labor and Workforce De-
velopment in the Patnck
Administration.

Another Democrat seen
making a bid for the state
auditor's seat is Worcester
County Sheriff Guy Glodis.

On the Republican side.
Mary Connaughton, a mem-
ber of the Massachusetts
Turnpike Authority Board,
has already declared her
candidacy.

Joseph Barron Sworn In As Quincy's Fire Chief

Cont 'd From Page I

"The firefighters do such
a great job."

The selection was ap-
proved by Civil Service
before the swearing in cer-
emony could take place.
Barron had served as acting
chief for a year after the re-
tirement of Chief Timothy
Pettinelli.

The other applicants for
the position were Captain

Edward Fenby and Deputy
Chief Gary Smyth. They
finished first and second on
the Civil Service test, re-
spectively.

Fire Department Chap-
lain Ed Arambasich recited
the firefighter's prayer and
wished Barron luck. "1 know
he will carry on with the tra-
dition of great chiefs," said
Arambasich.

And although the com-

petition for the j)osition was
stiff, Koch said the decision
was not a difficult one. "I'm
delighted we're here today,"
he said. "No matter what
position we're trying to fill,
we always have great candi-
dates.

"It was an easy decision,
quite frankly. We're grate-
ful with the great job you do
putting yourself on the line
every day."

'Honor Those Who Serve And May All Veterans Return Home'

Cond't From Fa^e 2

it changes the way we view
the discovery of our missing
veterans.

As they are discovered,
no matter the war, our nation
can now determine who the
fallen warrior is and return
him or her to their honored
place throughout our coun-
try. This was not always
the case, which is why our
nation established the Ibmb
ot the Unknowns. I want to
tell you a story about this
tomb. But, I want to give
credit at this point. 1 could
not recall all the facts, so as
I prepared for today, I used
several websites: they are
"homeofheros.com." and
"arlingtoncemetery.net."

I gleaned a lot of facts
from those websites to re-
fresh my memory. This is
the story of "X-26". As I
recount the story of "X-26",
1 hope we can come to un-
derstand why we can never
give up the task of bringing
our veterans home. I bring
to you a story of one veteran
in particular who made the
ultimate sacrifice and who,
by fate, long after he was
gone, played a major role
in the way we now honor
veterans. He had an effect
on the lives of many oth-
ers. "X-26", - that was his
designation as an Unknown
from Vietnam. "X-26" was
once in the Tomb of the Un-
knowns, placed there as the
unknown soldier to repre-
sent the Vietnam War. No-
tice the past tense. He is not
there any more. A look back
helps us understand what
happened to this veteran and
to this monument to the un-
known.

In 1973, our country
needed an unknown soldier
from Vietnam. I suppose it
was part of the healing pro-
cess. However, even at that
time, science insured there
were very few fallen warriors
who remained unknown. So

when in 1973 Congress, as
is their wont, passed Pub-
lic Law 93-43, directing the
Secretary of Defense to inter
an unknown from Vietnam
in the tomb, it took until
1984 before remains "X-26"
were finally deemed un-
identifiable and relea.sed for
burial in the tomb. These
remains came from An i.oc.
a small city 60 miles North
of Saigon, where the 1972
North Vietnamese spnng of-
fensive came to a halt when
United States and South
Vietnamese forces drove the
North Vietnamese Army out
of the south.

It was a long and terrible
battle, as most great battles
are, with great cost in hu-
man life. X-26 was one of
them. Eventually, long after
the battle was over, the re-
mams of X-26 were found,
but there very few clues to
establish identity. This war-
rior could have been one of
nine individuals known to
have been lost in this area,
but there was little evidence
to prove his identity. While
some of the other remains
were eventually identified,
X-26 was not.

There were shrouds from
a parachute, some cloth
from a flight suit, some
leather from a weapons hol-
ster, but nothing definitive.
At the time, these items did
give the remains a "BTB,"
that is in the parlance of
graves registration, "be-
lieved to be." Again, noth-
ing concrete could be linked
to X-26 to establish identity,
so eventually the "believed
to be" tag was dropped.

X-26 remained unknown
for years and eventually,
when X- 26 was chosen as
the unknown to be interred,
he was returned to the U.S.
from Hawaii, where he had
been for over 1 2 years. This
warrior was given full mili-
tary honors and rites, includ-
ing the Medal of Honor. On

Veterans' Day. 1984, Presi
dent Reagan presided over
the burial of the remains at
the sarcophagus between
the WW 11 and Korean Un-
knowns. As is custom. Pres-
ident Reagan also accepted
the flag as next of kin. Ihal
flag IS in the Memorial Dis-
play Room.

Ihus, the remains of
X-26 were laid tt) rest in
the Tomb of the Unknowns.
Then, a decade after the re-
mains were interred, fate
intervenes. A family in
Missouri receives an anony-
mous call saying that the
remains of the Vietnam Un-
known might be identified
and then, the life upending
words, "1 think your broth-
er's in the tomb." The caller
forwarded a copy of a book
written by Susan Sheehan in
1 986 titled A Missmg Plane.
He also forwarded a list of
all Americans killed on May
1 1 , 1972 near An Loc. There
was a single name on the
list. While this list turned
out to be incorrect, it started
a chain of events that would
alter our country forever.

Anyone who has visited
the Tomb of the Unknowns
leaves with the indelible
impression of the sanctity
and sacredness of those
graves. Guarded 24 hours
a day, they are the ultimate
tribute to the fallen veterans
of our country. On the tomb
is inscribed - "Here rests in
honored glory an American
soldier known but to God."
Likewise, every Ameri-
can knows that our country
will leave no path untaken,
no stone unturned, no task
undone in our efforts to
account for every soldier,
sailor, airman, or marine
who fails in defense of our
nation. We leave no war-
rior behind. Therefore, as
this family firmly came to
believe and as the evidence
began to accumulate that the
Vietnam Unknown could in

Sellers of single-family
homes, condominiums and
two-family dwellings were
spared major losses while
owners of multiple dwell-
ings of three or more units
suffered the largest drop.

The median sale price of
single family homes, con-
dominiums and two-family
dwellings in 2008 dropped
by about $13,000 in each
category, according to Tarel-
lo's statistics which listed
the median sale of a single
family in 2008 at $333,000
and at $320,000 in 2009.

Tarello explained the
median sale price reflects
the halfway mark between
all the sales with 50% of the
total sales at a higher price
and 50% of the sales lower
than the median value.

Hardest hit, according to
Tarello's survey, were multi-
ple dwellings but he warned
the small sales sampling of
multiple dwellings may not
reflect actual market trends.

"Most values declined
from 2007 to 2008 and this
trend continued in 2009
as of 10/1/09," according
to Tarello's formal report
which illustrated losses in
the median sales price of
categories ranging from
single family homes to four
to eight family homes and
commercial properties.

The few sales of com-
mercial property indicated
a drop in value from the
7/07 to 7/09 median sale of
$535,000 to a 2009 median
sale of $500,000. Howev-
er, Tarello warned that the
number of recent sales, only
16 in 2009, was too low to

make solid conclusions.

"I think the commercial
(sales) might get worse in
the future," said Tarello who
added he believes the resi-
dential sales decline may
have hit bottom.

Tarello's report indicates
that the changes were un-
even throughout the city.
Five of the city's 11 neigh-
borhoods remained fairly
steady or under the 5% de-
cline while the median sale
in the Montclair neighbor-
hood, actually, reflected a
minor increase.

The following is a list of
the 2008 median sales price
of single family and mul-
tiple dwellings from two-
family to eight-family in
the city's 11 neighborhoods.
The amount reflects the
mid-way point of all sales in
each neighborhood.

For example, there were
39 sales in Houghs Neck
and $285,000 represents the
halfway mark between 19

higher sales and 20 lower
sales. The median sale price
in Houghs Neck and in the
following neighborhoods is
also lower than the current
assessments.

• Germantown, 8 sales,
$237,250.

• Adams Shore, 35 sales,
$365,000.

• Quincy Point, 47 sales,
$289,000.

• South Quincy, 48 sales,
$326,500.

•Quincy Center, 41 sales,
$400,000.

In the following neigh-
borhoods, the median sale
price is slightly higher than
the current assessment.

• West (Juincy, 52 sales,
$340,000,

• Wollaston, 88 sales,
$381,250

• Montclair, 57 sales,
$346,000.

• North Quincy, 39 sales,
$372,000.

• Squantum, $357,500.

STRATEGIES

by Jim Swihrnn

PROMOTING TEENAGE DRIVING SAFETY

Parents, insurers, and lawmakers

have all come to recognize that

automobile accidents are the leading

cause of death among teenagers in this

country. According to the National

Highway Traffic Safety Administration,

nearly 6.000 teenagers are killed

annually and more than 300,000 teens

are injured. To effectively address

this problem, states are increasingly

introducing "graduated drivers

licensing" laws, or GDLs, which vary

from state to state. Many prohibit

nighttime driving, driving on a learner's

permit without a licen.sed adult present,

and driving with teenage passengers In

each state, as student driven progress,

their restrictions are gradually lifted.

Studies show that this is the only proven

method to reduce teen auto fatalities,

and it is endorsed by insurers as such.

As soon as your teenager begins
to drive, notify us that there will be an
additional driver in the house. Since
teenagers are inexperienced drivers, tfiey

tend to get into a lot of accidents. This
can sometimes be reflected in higher
insurance rates. We recommend you call
us with all of your insurance questions.
You can rely on our experience and
knowledge to provide you with a clean
and precise insurance assessment. At
JAMES J. SULLIVAN INSURANCE
AGENCY, our clients include both
personal and commercial accounts
with premiums that range from a few
dollars to hundreds of thousands of
dollan. Please call us at 617-328-8600
to arrange an insurance consultation.
We provide truly full service and
professional, caring guidance. Our
office is located at 151 Hancock Street
Happy Thanksgiving Day!

NOTE: While parents incorrectly
believe that the primary cause of teen
crashes is drunk driving, it is really
distractions caused by cell-phone
use, having friertds in the car, eating/
drinking or tuning the radio or
changing CDs

Super Fitness Adds Evolution Lifestyles In Quincy

Super Fitness is proud to working within the Medi- goals that member has set.

add Evolution Lifestyles to its
Quincy and Watertown loca-
tions. "Evolution Lifestyles is
the future of how we will de-
feat all the diseases associated
with obesity and inactivity,"
says Richard Langella owner
of Super Fitness and co-owner
of Evolution Lifestyles. Evolu-
tion Lifestyles makes all mem-
bers "accountable" to a trainer
at an affordable price.

Ed Mazzuchelli co-owner
of Evolution Lifestyles knows
what it takes to get people
healthy. Mazzuchelli, a very
decorated trainer who has
worked with all types of cli-
ents from athletes to CEO's of
major companies, has teamed
up with Langella and is now

cal Fitness field. "There is a
great need to bridge the gap
between the Medical field and
the Fitness field," says Maz-
zuchelli, "and that's exactly
what we've done with Evolu-
tion Lifestyle."

The secret to the success of
Evolution Lifestyles is mem-
ber "accountability." In the
program a member works with
their trainer once a month,
once a week or three times a
week depending on the clients'
needs. "Most people fail hit-
ting their fitness goals because
they are taught a program and
then are sent out on their own,"
says Langella. "Now we set the
member up with a trainer who
keeps them accountable to the

Evolution Lifestyles will be
opening their fourth location
soon in Marshfield. "With the
medical field now sending us
referrals every day for Type
2 Diabetes, pain management
and Cardiova.scular rehab, 1
see no slowdown in the fu-
ture expansion of Evolution
Lifestyles," says Mazzuchelli, |
'The futures looking healthy,
so should you."

State To Hold Public

Hearing Dec. 14 On

Proposed Charter School

Cont d From Paf>e I

the state Department of Ed-
ucation (DOE) said the final
decisions are scheduled for
February.

Considine said Monday
that city officials and resi-
dents may offer their opin-
ions at the hearing and are
welcome to send written
comments to the DOE. 75
Pleasant St., Maiden, MA,
02148.

Local officials filed a
strong resolution opposing
the plan with the DOE after
recent votes at City Council
and the School Committee.

City councillors voted
unanimously at their Nov. 9
meeting to formally oppose
the proposed Hani in Inter-
national Academy Charter
School .

With their vote, the coun-
cil joined Mayor Thomas
Koch and the School Com-
mittee in unanimously sup-
porting the resolution which,
also, opposes any and all
charter schools in the city.

Councillor Michael

McFarland submitted the
council resolution which
had been approved by the
School Committee on Oct.
7. (Rep. Ron Mariano was
absent.)

School Committee mem-
ber Anne Mahoney who
prepared the resolve said

she wanted city officials to
"stand together in unity" in
opposing the charter school.

The resolution "rejects
the notion that any ethnic,
social, linguistic or cultural
group (in Quincy) is being
underserved in their attempts
to improve language and ac-
ademic proficiency. . ."

Mahoney said there is
power in numbers and she
will now encourage resi-
dents to write to the DOE,
expressing their opposition
to the charter school.

City Council President
Jay Davis also said it is
important that city officials
work together to protect the
quality of schools and orga-
nize efforts to fend off the
charter school effort.

Davis said he had been
invited to join trustees of
the Hanlin International
Academy. He said he firm-
ly declined and described
the benefits of the Quincy
schools to the caller.

Local officials have es-
timated the charter school
would cut the city's .school
aid by some $600,(X)0 to
$700,000 a year but Ward
3 Councillor Kevin Cough-
lin said the losses could be
much higher.

At the council meeting.
Coughlin cited a study by
the Massachusetts Munici-

pal Association (MMA) es-
timating that Quincy could
lose more than $4.5 million
in local aid with the approv-
al of a charter school .

"They looked at each city
and town and determined
what would be siphoned
off," said Coughlin.

Dean Chin, spokesman
for the charter school trust-
ees, said fewer than a dozen
persons attended this week's
information session at the
main library.

However, Chin was opti-
mistic after the presentation.
"We got enough information
out to dispel some of the
misinformation," he said.

One of the major prob-
lems, according to Chin,
is the belief that the school
would cater strictly to stu-
dents of Asian background.
In fact, the enrollment plan
for student body would be
equally split.

Under the plan, the
school would open in Sept.
20)0 with 88 in Grade 6 stu-
dents and expand to a total
of 308 students in Grades 6
through Grades 12.

By JOE REARDON

The Germantown Neigh-
borhood Center is calling
out the public to help its an-
nual fundraiser by donatmg
a vanety of food and gift
items for over 2,000 people
in Quincy.

"As we approach a time
of very high unemploy-
ment, high fcKxl costs, and
a greater need in the com-
munity, we don't want area
families to have to make the
hard choice between keep-
ing their homes or staying
wann this winter," said Kar-
en Quigley, director of the
Germantown Neighborhood
Center.

The center's annual holi-
day program kicks off ever)'
year in October and runs

Quincy Public Sch(H)ls, Fa-
ther Bill's Place and Faith
Institutions.

Last holiday season the
center served a record-
breaking 4JS00 people liv-
ing in the City of Quincy
and it is expected that re-
quests for assistance dunng
the 2009 season will easily
surpass last year's numbers
The program not only helps
with nutntious meals and
gifts, but also offers ci^nh-
dential adv(K'acy. crisis in-
tervention, and time-limited
services to participants in
need

Among the food items the
center is lotjking for are gift
cards to local supermarkets,
meats, eggs, juice, fresh
prcxiuce. milk, butter, cere-
als, fruits, spaghetti sauce,
nee, pasta, peanut butter,

ucts, laundry detergents,

ed sweatshirts in mens and

cards to .McDonalds. Burg-
er King and the Gap

"Your donation will help
us to fulfill the needs of in-
dividuals and families dur-
ing the holiday season." said
Quigley '"The center utilizes
your donation to purchase
gift certificates from l(Kal
businesses such as super
markets, mails, departmeni
stores and gas stations We
also purchase toss and pro-
vide support to families by
purchasing needed clothing
and household items "

I'm sitting here thinking
of a follow-up inspection 1
recently made in an apart-
ment housing two adults and
two children.

Previously, it had come
to my attention that the unit
was missing working smoke
and CO detectors. The land-
lord installed both detectors
on a Saturday after I met
with him; 1 returned to in-
spect the unit on Monday,
the tenant had already re-
moved a battery from one of
the newly installed smoke
detectors. Reacting to the
tenant's action, I did so in
utter frustration and disbe-
lief.

On a bi-monthly ba-
sis, the NFPA publishers a
trade magazine called NFPA
JOURNAL. It's a great
source of data for discussion
on the causes of fire while
the examples hilite defi-
ciencies in human behavior
surrounding the cause, or
existing conditions result-
ing in fatalities. Like most
tragedies, there are lessons
to be learned. This article is
another attempt at sharing a
lesson.

In the vast majority of
residential fire fatality in-
cidents, as is noted in these
examples, smoke detectors
have either been removed,
or their batteries have been
removed rendering them
functionless. As I have so
often attempted to empha-

size, early notification is
essential when one needs
to evacuate a household in
a fire emergency. Even with
notification, you typically
have as little as one minute
to escape.

The NFPA JOURNAL
is loaded with examples of
fires where eariy notification
was absent do to the absence
of working detectors. The
examples hilite incidents
where it is apparent that the
occupants themselves re-
moved the batteries and or

Clean House Naturally With Inexpensive Improvements

Dishwasher
Phobia

Q:

My husband
went to add
dishwasher soap to the
dishwasher yesterday
morning, but instead of
soap he accidentally put
Zep commercial drain
care into the soap dish

- and turned it on! Now
I'm afraid to use either
the dishwasher, or any of
the dishes or silverware
that came out of it. What
should I do? -Alice S., via
e-mail

A ^ Check the drain
• cleaner bottle's
label for either directions
on cleanup of the chemi-
cal, jf the manufacturer's
phone number. Zep also has
a Web site at www.zep.com,
where you can find informa-
tion on that drain cleaner in
the Products section under
"General Maintenance," as
well as a Contact Us sec-
tion.

My instinct tells me that

- if it's household-grade
drain cleaner - running the
dishwasher through its full
cycle several times while
empty should clear it, and
washing and drying the af-
fected dishes and silver-
ware with soap and water

a few times should clear
any residual drain cleaner.
Wear rubber gloves while
washing them, and keep
the kitchen well-ventilated
while the dishwasher is run-
ning.

However, you don't have
to do this if you're uncom-
fortable Like you, I'm a
big fan of making absolute-
ly sure the di.shwasher and
dishes are safe. That's why 1
would recommend contact-
ing the company directly,
either by calling the number
on the label of the bottle,
or contacting Zep through
its Web site, if you don't
get a satisfactory or timely
answer, contact a plumber,
who can either guide you
through a cleanup process,
or can come over to assess
the situation and provide a
solution that you can live
with.

HOME TIP: For best
results, run your kitchen's
hot-water tap for a few
seconds before starting the
dishwasher to make sure
the first water fill is hot.

Telephone 617-471-3100

(ARA) - You narrowed
the long house-hunting
search down to your favor-
ite option, made an offer
the homeowners couldn't
refu.se, and are well-posi-
tioned to take advantage of
that $8,000 first-time home
buyer federal housing tax
credit. All that's left to do is
move in.

But the excitement of
making a home your own
can dim the first time you
open a cabinet door or look
in the oven to realize not
everyone shares the same
commitment to good house-
keeping.

Whether cleaning your
new home before moving
in, or lookmg for a way to
juggle the increase in house-
work that comes when you
move from an apartment
to a larger condo or single-
family home, tidying up
your environment doesn't
have to be a tough or ex-
pensive task. Moving into a
new place is a great time to
start fresh, breaking out of
old routines and trying dif-
ferent things, including liv-
ing a more natural lifestyle
at home.

"Movmg into a new
home can be exciting and
overwhelming at the same
time, but a few simple steps
can ease the transition,"
says Jen Singer, family life-
style expert. "Think of it as
a clean slate for your family,
regardless of whether some-
one previously lived there."
Start Off Fresh
It's the dirty little secret
of home buying - sometimes
the previous owners leave
a mess behind when they
move out ■'Even if they
don't leave a mess, you'll
still want to give your new
home a good cleaning so it
truly feels like you're mak-
ing a fresh start," Singer
says.

Before you settle into
your new home. dust, mop
and scrub everything from
the ceiling to the floor. It'll
save you from feeling like
you're living in someone
else's dirt, and give you a
brand new start in your new
home.

Divvy The Chores
You may love the fact that
your new home affords you
more living space, but with
more space comes more
chores. Start t)ut by fairly
distributing chores among
family members.

"It might be fun to play
with your new washing ma-
chine now, but doing all the
laundry all the time will get
old fast," Singer says. "So
task your spouse with grab-
bing a natural laundry stain
remover that cleans power-
fully to tackle tough stains,
such as Nature's Source
Laundry Stain Remover by
Shout. The line also has oth-
er natural cleaners I like to
use for other chores around
the home by trusted brands

things multipK to take up all

and more stuff can add up lo
clutter and ultimate!), more
waste.

■Resist the urge to hi!

warns "Instead, look at new
ways of using pieces >ou al-

Another clutter-cutting
tactic - if you just moved
boxes that you packed two
moves ago and haven't un-
packed since, get nd of them
'"You may not even want to

suggests "After all. what-

you've done just fine with-

Personalize With Paint
bven if the sellers of vour
new home put a fresh coat of
paint throughout the house
before they left, repainting

to personalize your environ-

LT. DAN MINTON

On Friday, Nov. 6, at 1 :15 p.m., Officers Mark Millane,
Mike Brandolini, Steve DesRoche and Mark Smith re-
sponded to a call for Citizens Bank being robbed at
371 Hancock St.

Upon arrival. Offi-
cer Millane met a witness
who said that the suspect,
wearing a red baseball hat
and a dark jacket just went
down Glover Avenue and
took a right onto Pierce
Street. The witness said that
the suspect came out of the
bank in a hurry, with money
in his hands. As the suspect
approached Glover Avenue,
a dye pack exploded in his
hands, which caused him to

drop the money and flee, with the dye on his hands and
clothes.

Officer Millane broadcasted the description of the sus-
pect as well as what occurred to responding units, then
checked the area and retrieved some of the money with
the dye on it. As he was collecting the monies, he also
located a handwritten note with "Give me Money" writ-
ten on it. The officer then questioned other witnesses who
confirmed the original account.

Next, Officer Millane interviewed the teller, who
said that the suspect gave him the same note that Officer
Millane found. The teller said that the suspect was given
three packs of tens and twenties, along with loose cash
estimated at a total of $ 1 300. Officer Millane then inter-
viewed other witnesses and learned that there was a red
four door vehicle parked on Pierce Street facing Glover
Avenue, containing two males, but was no longer there.
Detail Officer Paul Delahoyde radioed that he was in the
area and had detained a white male who fit the descrip-
tion on CHover Avenue. Officer Brian Mahoney and his

A Job Well Done

K-9, along with other units, responded to the area.

Lieutenant Detective John Steele arrived on scene and
questioned the suspect, who said that he was headed to his
mother in laws house near the stadium in Wollaston after
getting off the train from Pembroke. The suspect denied
any knowledge of the bank robbery and told the Officers to
check the cameras at the bank to show that he was not in-
volved. Lieutenant Steele asked the suspect why he would
get off at the wrong station and the specific address he was
going to.

The suspect said he needed a drink before going to his
mother in laws and stopped off at a North Quincy bar. He
did not know the address of his mother in laws home. The
suspect consented to being transported back to the bank so
that the witnesses could determine if he was the suspect.
Officer DesRoche waited with the suspect outside the bank
while detectives reviewed the video. The officer observed
that the suspect's cell phone kept ringing, so he looked on
the phone screen and saw the contact name was "Jim."

After a few more calls from "Jim," Officer DesRoche
asked the suspect who "Jim" was and he responded by
providing the last name as well as stating, "Ohh... Jimmy
is my friend." Officer DesRoche then used his mobile data
terminal and was able to produce a driver's license photo
of "Jimmy"

The suspect confirmed that the photo was his friend's.
The address of "Jinmiy" was on Channing Street, which
the suspect confirmed. At this time. Detective Lieutenant
Steele, after watching the video, confirmed that the man be-
ing detained was not the suspect.

With reason to believe that the suspect was involved
in something but without sufficient evidence to implicate
him in the robbery, the suspect was released. The video
did show that the suspect in the bank was wearing a black
Bruins jacket and a new updated description was given out
to officers.

Officer DesRoche then contacted Sergeant Duggan
and informed him of the information he received from the
suspect and was going to investigate further. They were
joined by Officer Brandolini at the Channing Street ad-
dress, where a red Sable was parked in the driveway. This
was key because of Officer Millane's broadcast that a red
car, possibly a Taurus, was seen in the area with two men
in it. Officer Brandolini immediately went to the vehicle
and felt the hood and tires and stated that both were warm
and that the car had been driven recently.

Officer DesRoche continued around the side of the house
and noticed an open screen window with three males in-
side. He armounced his presence and "Jimmy" told him to
come in. "Jimmy" stated that his girlfriend was the ten-
ant of the apartment and that he was staying there.

Officer Brandolini asked "Jinuny" who owned the ve-
hicle in the driveway and he replied, "A couple of friends."
Sergeant Duggan asked "Jinmiy" if there was anyone else
inside and he stated, "Yes... my two friends." Sergeant
Duggan received permission from "Jimmy" to speak with
his friends.

Once inside, Officer Brandolini asked who owned the
car and one male said "friends." Officer Brandolini then
asked who was driving it recently and one of the males
said that it hadn't been driven in days. Officer Brando-
lini then observed a black Bruins jacket resting on top of
the washing machine in the kitchen in plain view. With
this new evidence, all three males were given their Miran-
da warnings by Officer Brandolini .

While Officer Brandolini was speaking to the suspects.
Officer DesRoche examined the Bruins jacket and found
a red spot on the yellow collar of the jacket. The sus-
pects again denied that anyone used the car and that they
were asleep prior to the Police at their door. The officers
all noted that the suspects were very evasive and nervous
as they kept changing their stories.

"Jimmy" told the Officers that he and three friends

Played Central Catholic HS in State Semifinals

Presidents Two Wins
Away From State Title

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy Presidents
just keep winning-no matter
what it takes-and now the
team is two wins away from
capturing the program's first
state title since 1988.

After rolling through
the Division 1 Central/East
quarterfinals (3-0 match
sweep over Brookline HS)
and semifinals (3-0 match
sweep over North Quincy
HS), the Presidents escaped
a five-game match over
Newton South High School
last Saturday evening m the
Division 1 Central/East fi-
nals.

Quincy (20-0 overall), the
top-seed in the bracket, had
yet to play a match of more
than four games all fall, but
against Newton South, the
team fought and battled for
an impressive win. And the
end result was a trip to the
Division 1 state semifinals
against Central Catholic
(21-0 overall), held Tuesday
night, with the winner of
that game advancing to the
Massachusetts Division 1
state final on Saturday at 6
p.m. at Algonquin Regional

High School in Northboro.

"We got to this point by
playing good defense and
serving aggressively," said
QHS head coach Jacqui
Niosi. "We are working well
as a team. We do not have
that one star player, but in-
stead, this team is made up
of a number a good players
and they have bought into
the team concept and it has
worked well for us in the
tournament."

The Presidents lost Game
One against Newton South,
17-25, before rebounding
to win Game Two, 25-17.
Newton South took a two
game-to-one lead following
a 25-22 Game Three vic-
tory, but Quincy evened the
match with a 25-17 Game
Four win. That game win set
up the winner-take-all fifth
game.

The Presidents, playing
in their first deciding game
of the season, responded to
the pressure. Quincy trailed
early but took a 14-11 ad-
vantage late. After Newton
South scored two straight
points to cut the Quincy ad-
vantage to 14-13, the Presi-

dents won the match, 15-13,
on a missed service point.

"(The fifth game) could
have went either way," .said
Niosi. "It was a little stress-
ful having to play our first
fifth game of the season
in this match, but the girls
had been playing mentally
tough against Newton South
in earlier games and they re-
sponded. It was great to see
the team step up and contin-
ue to play their game."

The victory over Newton
South highlighted the depth
and talent of this year's
Quincy team. Senior outside
hitter Meghan McCarthy
(12 kills) and juniors Kori
Sorensen (libero, 26 digs)
and Stella Edwards (out-
side hitter, 16 kills) played
outstanding games as did
seniors Julia Yee and Kylie
Kozlowski and sophomore
Nicole Parry.

"It has been incredible
to have made it this far with
two sophomores starting
on the court," said Niosi.
"We have depth, but we
also have a team of unself-
ish players who are willing
to do whatever it takes to

North Quincy Red Raiders, Quincy Presidents Lose Final Game Before Annual Matchup

IT^ Annual Thanksgiving Day Tilt On Tap

By SEAN BRENNAN

With the regular season
winding down, Quincy and
North Quincy High School
will both be looking to fin-
ish the 2009 season on a
high note; that opportunity
conies next Thursday at
the 77"' annual Thanksgiv-
ing Day football game (10
a.m.. Veterans Memorial
Stadium).

Last weekend the city's
two teams both fell in de-
feat, officially ending tough
years against Patriot League
foes. North Quincy (3-7
overall, 1-4 in Keenan Di-
vision play) lost to Silver
Lake Regional High School

(5-4-1, 2-3 in Keenan Divi-
sion), 21-0, while Quincy
(2-7 overall, 2-3 in Fisher
Division play) dropped a
28-7 decision to Middle-
boro High School (2-8, 2-3
in Fisher Division play).

The Red Raiders, playing
their first year in the strong
Keenan Division against
teams from Duxbury, Sci-
tuate, Hingham, Whitman-
Hanson and Silver Lake,
earned their lone division
win over Whitman-Hanson,
14-7 two weeks ago. This
division, the stronger of the
two in the Patriot League,
was won by Duxbury HS
(8-2, 5-0), which knocked

off Scituate HS (8-2, 3-1)
last weekend in overtime
to capture a spot in the Di-
vision 2A playoffs against
Marshfield on Dec. 1 .

North Quincy had previ-
ously lost to Duxbury (21-
6), Hingham (35-14) and
Scituate (34-6) before los-
ing to Silver Lake last Fri-
day at Veterans Memorial
Stadium.

The Presidents played
against teams from Ha-
nover, Rockland, Pembroke,
Middleboro and Randolph
this season in the Fisher Di-
vision. Rockland (6-4, 5-0)
defeated Hanover (6-4 , 4- 1 ) ,
14-7, over the weekend to

Diabetes Prevention Is The Best Remedy, Medical Expert Says

Tomorrow may be too
late when it comes to pre-
venting or improving a dia-
betes condition, according
to TOPS Club. Inc. (Take
Off Pounds Sensibly), the
nonprofit weight-loss sup-
port organization.

Diabetes is a disease in
which the body does not
produce or properly use in-
sulin, a hormone needed to
convert sugar, starches, and
other focxl into energy need-
ed for daily life. Obesity is
one of the leading risk fac-
tors for developing the most
prevalent form of diabetes.
Type 2 (adult-onset). Typi-
cally affecting individuals
age 40 and older, the Na-
tional Center for Chronic

Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion notes that
Type 2 diabetes has been re-
ported among children and
adolescents with increasing
frequency. According to the
American Diabetes Associa-
tion, one out of every three
children bom today will face
a future with diabetes if cur-
rent trends continue, if not
treated properly, diabetes
can lead to serious compli-
cations, such as blindness,
kidney failure, heart disease,
foot ulcers, and the need for
limb amputations.

Employ the following
tips from TOPS to prevent
the development of diabe-
tes:

• Eat smart. Choose low-

fat, fiber-rich, and whole
grain foods, which have all
been associated with im-
proved blood sugar control.
Increase servings of fruits,
vegetables, and nuts to help
you feel full and even pro-
mote weight loss.

• Aim for at least 30
minutes of physical activity
five days a week. Exercise
helps keep your blood sugar,
blotxl pressure, and choles-
terol levels within a normal
range, if you can't find a
solid block of time to be
active, even ten minutes of
exercise spread out over the
course of the day, like brisk
walking, can help.

• Quit smoking. Accord-
ing to the American Diabe-

tes Association, smoking
increases blood sugar, blood
pressure, and cholesterol
levels (also raising your
risk of a heart attack). The
Rhode Island Department of
Health notes that smoking
even one cigarette can re-
duce the body's inability to
ilse insulin by 15%.

• Reduce chronic stress,
a prolonged state of stress
that can continue for days or
weeks. The American Dia-
betes Association has found
that, when under stress, the
body responds by raising
blood sugar levels; a study
by the BMJ (British Medical
Journal) found that chronic
stress has been linked to the
development of heart dis-

well . Try relaxation or stress
management techniques,
such as beginning the day
with a few minutes of yoga
or meditation. Breathing ex-
ercises, listening to soothing
music, or watching a funny
television show can help al-

Putting Out
the Fire of

How To Prepare For A Medical Emergency

ease and other conditions, as BumiUS XOHCUe

By ERIC GIORDANO, RN
Clinical Nurse Manager,
Quincy Medical Center

Emergencies are by na-
ture unplanned, but having
personal medical informa-
tion readily available can
help make an emergency
situation easier to handle for
everyone involved.

Having emergency in-
formation readily available
helps EMS providers get
you to the hospital more
efficiently. Last year, there
were 1 1 ,500 calls for emer-
gency medical services in
Quincy, according to Chris
Grazioso, a supervisor and
Paramedic at Fallon Ambu-
lance Company, who said
another way to prepare is
to make sure your house is
well lighted and the house
number is easy to see.

What medical informa-
tion is needed in an emer-
gency? That answer is
basically the same for ev-
erybody - name, age, phy-
sician contact information

and instructions for whom
to contact in an emergen-
cy. However, people with
chronic medical conditions,
multiple medical problems
and potentially life threaten-
ing medical conditions, like
diabetes, seizure disorders
or heart problems, should
be prepared to provide thor-
ough, detailed emergency
medical information. There
are a number of ways to do
this.

Bill Cronin, an EMT and
supervisor at Fallon Am-
bulance, said he has emer-
gency information down-
loaded on his iPhone, using
an application called ResQr
MedTag that offers emer-
gency first aid instructions.
Grazioso offered less high-
tech solutions, including
the "File of Life" (www.fo-
life.org) and "Vial of Life"
(www.VialofLife.com) pro-
grams, which provide easily
accessible forms, decals and
magnetic refrigerator stick-
ers with essential medical

information. Another simple
way to prepare is to "ICE"
your cell phone, meaning to
include "In Case of Emer-
gency" numbers.

Perhaps the quickest,
albeit lowest tech solution,
is to have a 3x5 card with
emergency information list-
ed as follows:

Name:

DOB: (date of birth)

Ins: (insurance informa-
tion)

PCP: (primary care phy-
sician and telephone num-
ber)

Allergies: (you can use
the mnemonic "NKDA" for
no known drug allergies)

Meds: List all medica-
tions, including over the
counter supplements. You
may need a separate piece
of paper if you are on many
medications, and be sure
to include the name of the
medication, the dose and
how frequently you take it.

PMH: (past medical his-
tory)

Other information that
should be readily accessible
in a medical emergency
could include, a copy of a re-
cent ekg (depending on your
past medical history) and a
copy of your Advanced Di-
rectives, the documents that
explain the extent to which
one wishes to be treated in
the event of a life-threat-
ening situation and health
care proxy information that
names the person whom you
trust to make decisions for
you if you should become
incapacitated.

One always hopes to
avoid unplanned visits to
the hospital or emergency
department, but being pre-
pared is one simple way to
protect the safety and well
being of you and your loved
ones.

sized medication record, call

SUGAR SUBSTITUTE

Approved for use in fcxxj in
the United States since 1963,
the sugar substitute xylltol
has already been proven to
have decay-fighting ability as
an ingredient in chewing gum
among school-age children
with permanent teeth. More re-
cently, researchers have found
that mudh younger children,
who received eight grams of
xylitol daily In symp form, also
experienced a significant cavity-
fighting benefit, in fact, the baby
teeth of children between the
ages of 9 and 15 months who
received the daily dose of xylitol
experienced up to a 70 percent
reduction in tooth decay. How-
ever, researchers were quick
to point out that this is not to
be construed as a sitver-bullet
^)proach, as fighting tooth de-
cay should be a multi-pronged

DON'T TAKE IT EASY!

While aches and pains
may influence many people to
take things easier, the human
body was not created to rest for
prolonged periods on a couch.
In fact, inactivity can lead to
stiffness and muscle weakness.
In cases of disc problems, lack of
activity deprives these malleable
"shock absorbers" of the
nutrition they need to function
effectively. Moreover, exercise
promotes the exchange of fluid in
spinal structures, which, in turn,
reduces swelling and irritation in
the tissues surrounding injured
discs . Overall , chiropractic firmly
endorses the notion that active
exercise is the natural stimulus
for the healing process over the
entire body. The chiropractor
can suggest exercises and
techniques that are customized
to each patient's unique set of
conditions.

In general, a reasonable
amount of exercise that
is performed daily and
utilizes activities that are
enjoyed is recommended
for patients undergoing
chiropractic treatment. At the
FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC , we are well
trained to help you . You can trust
our experience and expertise.
For effective chiropractic care,
call 617.472.4220 to schedule
an appointment and find the
relief that natural health care
can give you. We are located
at 112 McGrath Hwy., Quincy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass., we can offer
you exceptional chiropractic
service.

PS. Activity avoidance due
to symptomatic pain can lead to
a downward spiral of continuing
symptoms.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I have burning tongue syn-
drome. At times, it is 3lmost
unbearable. The only thing
that helps somewhat is a salt-
water mouth rinse. My den-
tist, my internist and a neu-
rologist haven't offered any
relief.

I also get sores in my
mouth and on my tongue.
Any insight? - PJi.

ANSWER: Burning tongue
syndrome is also known as
burning mouth syndrome be-
cause the gums, roof of the
mouth and lips also can feel
like they are on fire. It happens
mostly, but not exclusively, to
women after menopause. Al-
though painful and disturbing,
it's not a health threat. No one
knows the exact cause, but it
might be that nerves serving the
tongue and mouth are malfunc-
tioning.

Let me give you a few home
remedies for it: rinsing the
mouth with cold apple juice;
and combining equal parts
Benadryl elixir and Kaopectate
as a mouthwash. Don't swallow
these rinses, and use them four
times a day. Another remedy is
six drops of hot pepper sauce
(Tabasco sauce) in a teaspoon
of water and swishing it around
in the mouth four times daily.
It might increase the burning
at first, but after a day or so it
should lessen it. If it doesn't,
abandon it.

Don't eat or drink spicy
or acidic foods or beverages.
Don't use mouthwashes with
alcohol in them. Change your
toothpaste brand. Chew sugar-
less gum.

When burning mouth fails
to respond to the above, the
medicines Klonopin, Elavil or
Neurontin might help.

leviate anxiety. If possible,
aim for at least seven hours
of sleep every night, which
also can be helpful in con-
trolling stress levels.

For more information on
diabetes, consult your phy-
sician.

Have your doctors looked
for things like dry mouth, B
vitamin deficiencies, anemia,
diabetes, lichen planus, thyroid
problems and Sjogren's syn-
drome?

Sores on the tongue and in
the mouth are not ordinarily
a part of burning tongue syn-
drome. Get to a doctor when
the sores are present. You might
have recurrent canker sores and

not burning mouth syndrome.

***

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
Will you please define claudi-
cation? Is there any treatment
for it? - RL.

ANSWER: Claudication is
leg pain that comes on with ac-
tivity and is due to clogged leg
arteries. Depending on where
the clog is, the pain can be felt
in the buttocks, hips, thighs or
calves. The medical name of
this condition is peripheral ar-
tery (or va.scuiar) disease.

Quite often, pain arises in the
calves. Affected people have an
uncanny ability to predict how
far they can walk before they
have to stop because of pain.
Resting relieves the pain, and
walking can then resume.

Plenty can be done for it.
Medicines can sometimes keep
the pain from developing. An-
other way to attack claudication
is to open the clogged artery
with a balloon -tipped, slender,
pliable tube (catheter), just as
they do for clogged heart arter-
ies. Or the same kind of heart
artery operation in which grafts
replace the obstructed artery
can be done for leg arteries.

The booklet on peripheral
artery disease explains this ill-
ness and its treatment. Read-
ers can obtain a copy by writ-
ing: Dr. Donohue - No. 109W,

We like this quotation by Robert
South - "If there be any truer measure
of a man than by what he does, it must
be by what he gives."

BE GENEROUS -
SHARE YOUR LIFE
Do I always think in terms of money
when I think of being gracious?
If I think about being generous with the richness that is always
a part of my life, I lift the limitations I have set upon myself
and always have plenty with which to be generous.

I can be generous with words of praise and encourage-
ment.

I can be generous with my smile.
I can be generous with my time.
I can be generous with my friendship.
I can be generous with my talents and skills.
I can generous with my prayer.
I can Ik generous with my word of appreciation.
I can be generous with my example of a faith-filled God-
flirected life.

Yes, I can be generous with the richness of my life.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
While it seems that chaos is
taking over, you get everything
back to normal, even if it means
being more than a little assertive
with some people. Expect to hear
more job-related news soon.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Expect to be able to move ahead
with your workplace plans now
that you have a good idea of
what you might have to face.
You also can anticipate a wel-
come change on the home front.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
A quieter period settles in, giv-
ing you a chance to catch your
breath, as well as allowing for
more time to handle some im-
portant family matters. The arts
dominate this weekend. Enjoy
them.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
The frustrations of last week
have pretty much played them-
selves out. You should find
things going more smoothly, es-
pecially with those all important
personal matters.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Once again, you find a creative
way to resolve a pesky problem
in short order. However, a mat-
ter involving a pxjssible breach
of confidence might need a bit
more time to check out.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Reuniting with an old
friend could lead to the sharing
of some great new experiences.
But be careful you don't find
yourself once again being super-
critical or overly judgmental .

^IBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) You should be seeing
some positive results following
your move toward repairing that

unraveling relationship. There
might be some setbacks, but
staying with it ultimately pays
off.

SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) Encouraging a
friendlier environment in the
home could go a long way to
help dissipate anger and resolve
problems, especially those af-
fecting children. It won't be
easy, but you can do it.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22
to December 2 1 ) A recent act of
kindness is beginning to show
some unexpected (but very wel-
come) results. On another note,
expect to hear more about a pos-
sible move to another locale.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) The good news
is that the sure-footed Goat can
rely on his or her skill to get
around obstacles in the work-
place. The not-so-good news
is that new impediments could
turn up later.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 1 8) A change of pace
is welcome but also confusing.
Before you make decisions one
way or another, be sure you
know precisely what it is you're
being asked to do.

PISCES (Febniary 19 to March
20) Don't fret if you don't get
the gratitude you think you're
owed for doing a nice thing for
someone. There might be a good
reason for that. In any event,
what's important is that you did
it.

BORN THIS WEEK: You have
a way of making the sort of wise
decisions that lead to shedding
new light on dark situations.

Cont'd From Page ?'

slept there and when they woke up, one of his friends
was gone. When asked what his name was, it turned out
to be the same person that Detail Officer Delahoyde had
originally stopped. At this time, while speaking with "Jim-
my," the front door opened up and the suspect originally
stopped by Officer Delahoyde, was now standing there ask-
ing "what's going on?"

While Officer Brandolini and Sergeant Duggan
were speaking to the other suspects, "Jimmy" asked Officer
DesRoche if he could speak privately. He said that when
he woke up there was no one around, so he went down to
his son's bedroom and noficed the other two men who had
slept over "sitting on the bed counting money."

Officer DesRoche informed Detective Lieutenant Steele
of the statement, then went into the kitchen and conducted
a pat frisk of the suspects. On the pants of one suspect, he
found a red smudge similar to the red stain on the jacket
found inside the kitchen.

The suspect was asked how he got this on his clothes and
he responded, "I spilled a beer." Both suspects were taken
into custody at this time.

When the other suspect stood up, a baseball hat that was
very similar to the one in the bank's video was found. The
two suspects in the house, one a 49 year old homeless per-
son, the other a 50 year old Disney, Oklahoma resident, were
charged with Unarmed Robbery. The suspect originally de-
tained by Officer Delahoyde, a 44 year old Pembroke resi-
dent was charged with Misleading a Police Investigation.

Back at the station, the suspects were questioned by De-
tectives David Pacino and Sean Biggins. One suspect con-
fessed to being the driver and told how the plan was or-
chestrated. He also said that the man originally stopped by
Officer Delahoyde had been in the car during the robbery,
was aware that the robbery was occurring, but walked away
prior to the suspect emerging from the bank.

The suspect in the bank returned to the car with his hands
covered in red dye. He added that they returned to Chan-
ning Street, where they went into the bedroom and counted
the money, all with red dye on it.

Much of the money was recovered hidden in the pants of
the suspects.

Evening Formal Ceremony And Social Event
Combined At North Quincy High School

Koch Plans To Cut
Jan. 4 Inaugural Costs

Mayor Thomas Koch an-
nounced Monday the city's
Jan. 4 inaugural will be a
substantially "scaled-back
affair" in an effort to cut
costs and reflect the difficult
economic times faced by the
city and nation.

Koch, who will be
swom-in to a second two-
year term, said that formal
ceremonies and the tradi-
tional community social
event will be consolidated
into a single location at
North Quincy High School.
It will also be the first time
that the inaugural will be
held in the evening, so both
the swearing-in and social
can be combined essentially
into one single event.

The mayor said the inau-
gural in the North Quincy
High School gymnasium
will likely save the city be-
tween $10,000 and $15,000,
the amount the city has tra-
ditionally spent to rent a
large enough function room
to accommodate more than
1,000 people.

Koch's first inaugural -
in 2007 - was held at the
Quincy Marriott Boston Ho-
tel, with formal proceedings
in the morning and a ball
later that evening.

"It is an appropriate rec-
ognition of the times we are
in to cut costs and scale back
on the festivities," Koch
said. "By the same token,
it is also an important time
for the community to come
together to share our collec-
tive optimism for Quincy's
future, so we still plan to
make it a positive event open
to all of our residents."

The evening schedule,
the mayor added, will allow
residents who may not nor-
mally be able to make the
traditional morning swear-
ing-in an opportunity to at-
tend the ceremonies.

All nine city councillors
and three school committee
members will be swom-in
with the mayor. The coun-
cil will vote to install a new

Coughlin - and a new vice
chairperson of the School
Committee.

Koch said he is working
with City Clerk Joseph Shea
on cutting back on some of
the other traditional formali-
ties of the inaugural in an ef-
fort to shorten its length.

"By making it essentially
a single event, we think it's
appropriate to try to be a
little more efficient when it
comes to time," Koch add-
ed.

The mayor said the
School Department will be
heavily involved in the in-
augural, with the Culinary
Arts program providing
foods, the combined North
and Quincy High choirs
performing, and the ROTC
programs playing their tra-
ditional roles.

Koch said some previ-
ously scheduled repairs and
maintenance upgrades at
North, such as fresh paint-
ing and new windows for

president - presumably doors will be completed in
Ward 3 Councillor Kevin time for inaugural.

Animal Shelter Reopening, Bazaar Dec. 5

THE CITY PERMANENTLY planted an 18-foot Norway Spruce Monday at Mclntyre Mall
outside City Hall. The tree, grown in South Hampton, N JI., can reach 75-feet tall. The city
typically spends about $1,000 every year to get a seasonal tree and have it temporarily planted.
The permanent planting, which cost about $1,500, will eliminate that recurring cost and will be
a full-time addition to the public mall that the community can enjoy in all seasons, city officials
said. From left are: Paul Franz of the Quincy Park Department, Mayor Thomas Koch and Dan-
iel Provost of Landscape Contractors in Ipswich, who sold the tree to the city. The crane to help
plant the spruce was donated by Hansen Tree and Landscape Service of Quincy and Abington.

S/ep^ Off At 12:30 P.M.; Special Salute To Quincy-Based National Guard Unit Headed To Afghanistan

90 Units In 57th Quincy Christmas Parade Sunday

The Christmas Parade Route

The city will usher in
the official start of the holi-
day season Sunday, Nov. 29
when the 57"' annual Quincy
Christmas Parade steps off
at 12:30 p.m. t the corner of
Elm and Hancock Streets,
Quincy Center.

Some 90 units including
bands, specialty units and
floats will be featured in this
year's parade. Among the
returning favorites: the pop-
ular Hallamore Clydesdales,
the Boston Red Sox mascot
Wally the Green Monster
and some 30 Aleppo Shri-
ners Clowns,

There will also be an
array of Corvette and an-
tique cars, color guards and
the star of the show: Santa
Claus riding on a Quincy
Fire truck.

This year's parade will
also have a very special
send-off and salute to a
Quincy-based National

Guard battalion that is set to
be deployed to Afghanistan
Jan. 4.

Jack Nigro, a member of
the Quincy Christmas Festi-
val Committee, said at least
36 National Guard members
are expected to march in
Sunday's parade. Company
C, 186"' Support Battalion
- based at the Quincy Ar-
mory on Hancock Street and
Furnace Brook Parkway,
consists of members from
Quincy and other South
Shore towns.

Historically military

groups have not participated

in the parade which has be-
come a city tradition. But
because it's the first group
from Quincy being de-
ployed, Nigro said the com-
mittee decided to make an
exception.

"We want people to un-
derstand this situation and to
give them a nice send-off,"
Nigro said.

This year's parade theme
is "Precious Memories of
Christmas" submitted by
' Quincy native Kathleen De-
Cristofaro, now a resident
of New Hampshire. Her
theme was selected by the
committee from numerous
entries received, said Parade
General Chairman George
White. White, who prom-
ises a "super parade," has
served as general chairman
since 1980.

As parade theme winner,
DeCristofaro will ride along
the 3-mile parade route in a
convertible and receive a gift
from the Christmas Festival
Committee at the awards
presentation in North Quin-
cy High School.

An estimated 200,000
each year turn out to watch
the parade along a route that
proceeds down Hancock
Street in Quincy Center to
East and West Squantum
Streets at North Quincy
High School.

Rain date is Sunday, Dec.
6, also at 12:30 p.m. If the
parade is postponed, an-
nouncements will be made
on WATD radio in Marsh-

THE HISTORY CHANNE

• On Dec. 4, 1872, the

Mary Celeste, an American
vessel, is spotted sailing er-
ratically but at full sail near
the Azores Islands in the At-
lantic Ocean. The ship was
seaworthy, its stores and
supplies were untouched,
but not a soul was onboard.
The reason for the abandon-
ment of the Mary Celeste
has never been determined.

• On Dec. 6, 1907, in

West Virginia's Marion
County, an explosion in a
network of mines owned
by the Fairmont Coal Com-
pany kills 361 coal miners,
it was the worst mining di-
saster in American history.
Nationwide, a total of 3,242
Americans were killed in
mine accidents in 1907.

• On Dec. I, 1913, the

Ford Motor Company intro-
duces the continuous mov-
ing assembly line. Ford's
new assembly line could
produce a complete car ev-
ery two-and-a-half minutes,
allowing the company to
sell cars for less than any
competitor.

• On Dec. 3, 1947, Mar-
lon Brando's famous cry
of "STELLA!" first booms
across a Broadway stage,
electrifying the audience
during the first-ever perfor-
mance of Tennessee Wil-

liams' play "A Streetcar
Named Desire." When the
curtain went down on open-
ing night, the crowd erupt-
ed into a round of applause
that lasted 30 minutes.

• On Nov. 30, 1954,

the first known modem in-
stance of a meteorite strik-
ing a human being occurs
at Sylacauga, Ala., when
a meteorite weighing 8.5
pounds crashes through the
roof of a house and into a
living room, bounces off a
radio and strikes a woman
on the hip.

• On Dec. 5, 1964,

the first Medal of Honor
awarded to a U.S. service-
man for action in Vietnam
is presented to Capt. Roger
Donlon of Saugerties, N.Y.,
for his heroic action earlier
in the year. During an attack
on July 6, 1964, Donlon
was wounded four times,
but kept fighting, refusing
medical attention.

• On Dec. 2, 1975,

Ohio State University run-
ning back Archie Griffin
becomes the first player in
history to win the Heisman
Trophy two years in a row.
In the 1976 NFL Draft, he
was the first-round draft
choice of the Cincinnati
Bengals.

Danny and Patrick Joyce of
West Quincy.

The political plot thickens.
Another week, another open seat, and the spec-
ulation mounts as to which "horses" will step into the
starting gate next year and be part of some potentially
wide-open state, county and legislative races.

It's still too early to say how election year 2010 will
shape up and what cast of candidates will emerge.

But one state-wide seat drawing some serious at-
tention is the one being vacated by retiring State Audi-
tor Joseph DeNucci. The former boxer who has served
as state auditor since 1987 announced Nov. 16 that he
would not seek re-election next year. (The state trea-
surer's seat will also be open since Quincy 's Tim Ca-
hill is running as an independent for governor.)

So, the door has swung wide open for any aspiring
politicians who have ever contemplated a campaign
for a state constitutional office.

One local public official took himself out of the state
auditor sweepstakes last week. That's Norfolk County
Sheriff Michael Bellotti who will seek re-election to a
third six-year term as sheriff next year.

But now another local public ser-
vant with considerable political roots
in the city and Norfolk County is con-
sidering at a run for DeNucci 's seat.

Patrick McDermott, the Norfolk
County Register of Probate and for-
mer Ward 3 city councillor, told The
Sun he's taking a good look at a cam-
paign for state auditor. He also said he
finds the Norfolk-Plymouth Senato-
rial Seat, presently held by Sen. Michael Morrissey,
"most intriguing" if Morrissey decides to run for Nor-
folk County District Attorney.

Morrissey 's decision to run for Norfolk County
D .A . , of course , depends on whether present Dist . Atty .
William Keating runs for state attorney general. And
that scenario would likely occur if Attorney General
Martha Coakley is elected U.S. Senator to fill the un-
expired term caused by the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy.
(We say "likely" because there is a chance that Keat-
ing wouldn't run for attorney general, political observ-
ers say, if there's a little maneuvering with Coakley's
potential open seat. We'll get to that in a minute.)

McDermott served three terms as a Ward 3 city
councillor from 1996 to 2002 before he was elected
Norfolk County Register of Probate in 2002. He was
re-elected to a six-year term in 2008. That means he is
not up for re-election as register until 2014. Transla-
tion: he could wage a run for auditor or state senator
without risking his register's position.

McDermott is also an elected Democratic State
Committeeman representing the Norfolk and Plym-
outh Senate District. He worked for Morrissey as a
constituent services aide and knows the district pretty
well. He also worked for former State Rep. Michael
Bellotti as an aide.

Another possibility - although less likely - for Mc-
Dermott: running for state representative in the 2"''
Norfolk District if Rep. Steve Tobin vacates his seat
to run for Morrissey 's open Senate seat. McDermott
lives in Ward 5 Precinct 1 in the Hospital Hill neigh-
borhood.

So for those who crave political speculation, there's
plenty to go around. But here's some caution. One ru-
mor making the rounds is Secretary of State William
Calvin being elected by a joint session of the House
and Senate to fill Coakley's open attorney general seat.
If that happens, it's highly unlikely Keating would run
against Calvin for attorney general next fall. They are
pretty good friends. (Galvin has dismissed that specu-
lation as gossip.)

The first major step in this domino effect will come
Tuesday, Dec. 8 when the primaries are held in the
special U.S. Senate race. Coakley is the perceived

frontrunner among the four-candidate field. The Dem-
ocratic winner would also be in the driver's seat in the
final election Jan. 19.

If Coakley wins Kennedy's seat, and someone oth-
er than Galvin is named her replacement as attorney
general, election 2010 will be off to the races. Keating
could go for attorney general, Morrissey for district
attorney. Reps. Bruce Ayers and Steve Tobin and Mc-
Dermott might seek the State Senate seat, and other
local politicians would eye those open rep seats.

Ayers' district comprises Ward 3 Precincts 3 and 4;
Ward 4 Precincts 1 and 3; Ward 5 Precincts 2 and 5;
and all of Ward 6.

Tobin's district includes all of Ward 1 , Ward 3 Pre-
cincts 1 , 2 and 5; Ward 4 Precincts 2 and 4 and Ward 5
Precincts 1, 3 and 4.

Perhaps an open state rep seat or two would cause
Ward Councillors Kevin Coughlin, Doug Gutro or Bri-
an McNamee to toss their hat in the ring.

Stay tuned.

G

OWARD 3 COUNCILLOR Kevin
Coughlin has secured the necessary
votes to become the next president of
'"sji^ the City Council.
^^/^^^ "I am tremendously grateful for
t^mmJKBi ^^^ support and confidence of my col-

COUGHLIN leagues in giving me the honor and
opportunity to serve going forward as
Council President. It is my intention, in cooperation
with my colleagues, to maintain the integrity of the
Council as a legislative body and its role of check and
balance while at the same time making every effort to
work collaboratively with Mayor Tom Koch to con-
duct the people's business," Coughlin said.

"It is critically important as well to provide for both
an efficient and effective forum for healthy, vigorous
but respectful debate and deliberation while ensuring
that everyone who comes before the council is treated
with decorum and civility," he added.

Coughlin will officially become the next council
president at the city's inauguration ceremonies Mon-
day, Jan. 4. He will become the first councillor from
Ward 3 to serve as council president since former
Councillor Jack Lydon was council president from
1982 to 1983.

QUINCY HISTORIAN and prolific postcard col-
lector Tom Galvin will mark a special
anniversary on Thanksgiving: 5 con-
secutive years of walking each and
every day.

Galvin, who is known to Sun read-
ers through his collection of historical
postcards featured in "Scenes from
Yesterdays," has been a walker for 15
years. But when he laces up his sneak-
ers and goes for his walk this Thurs-
day, it will mean he's walked three miles daily for five
years straight. That's 1,825 days in a row (not includ-
ing Leap Year!).

In the good weather, he'll stroll around his Quincy
neighborhood. When the weather is too inclement,
he moves indoors and walks inside the South Shore
Plaza.

Congratulations, Tom. Quite an achievement.

LORDY, LORDY, look who's gonna be 40!

Patrick McDermott, the Register of Probate for
Norfolk County, will celebrate the big 4-0 Wednesday,

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS IS 1910 real photo postcard reproduction showing
Brewers Corner in South Quincy. The view is looking
west down Copeland Street from Water Street. Granite
Street crosses through the middle of the picture. On the
left behind the utility pole and across Granite Street was
the grocery store owned for 30 years by Frank Brewer
for whom this corner was named. He retired about the
time of this photo and lived another 30 years in Quincy.

The tall building in the center was the Casey Block
with the Brewers Corner Drug Store on the first floor.
It was destroyed by fire in 1958. That site is now home
to the Southwest Quincy Community Center. Brewers
store site is now home to an apartment building and
Joe Uppling's shoe store on the left is now the site of The
Granite Street Cafe'. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail

Roos Congratulates Isola, Candidacy 'A Positive Experience

First 1 have to congratu-
late Barbara; she worked
hard and earned it. She won
the race fair and square. It
was a great field of candi-
dates; 1 expected the race to
be tight and it was. My hat
goes off to all of the candi-
dates.

1 entered the race because
I care about our schools,
especially since my chil-
dren are in them. I thought
I could help and wanted to
make a difference. The re-
sults of the race don't change
any of that. I will find other

ways to help.

I never gave much
thought before as to what is
exactly involved in running
a manual recount. It is a dif-
ficult, arduous task. 1 have
to give credit to Joe Shea
and his team. They did a
good job running the re-
count. I have no complaints
with how the process was
done.

I have to thank so many
people for all of their sup-
port and effort. 1 am so
proud of the effort that we
put in and how we ran the
campaign.

I have to thank my wife,
Marsha and my family for
enduring the sacrifices and
disruptions that a campaign
causes. My campaign man-
ager, Kathy Hubley, did
such incredible job of orga-
nizing and communicating,
anyone who has seen her
run the Citywide PTO meet-
ings knows that. 1 could not
have been nearly as success-
ful without her help.

Running was a positive
experience; it was a lot of
work but was an incredible
opportunity to meet so many
great people across the

city. It is impressive how
many people care about our
city and our schools. Right

Has Mixed Feelings Over Bellotti's Re-EIection Decision

As both a police officer
and political activist, I have
mixed feelings about Nor-
folk County Sheriff Michael
Bellotti's decision to seek a
third term as sheriff and not
run for State Auditor in the
2010 Democratic primary in
the wake of the announce-
ment by longtime Auditor
Joe DeNucci who will be
retiring from office unde-
feated to spend more time

with his family.

I believe as a law en-
forcement officer that Mi-
chael Bellotti has become a
bona fide public safety offi-
cial rather than simply being
a political office holder. He
truly likes his job as sheriff
and looks forward to bring
more improvements and
newer ideas to the Norfolk
County Sheriff's Office.

However, 1 also think

More Letters On Page 8

Bottle, Can Drive At
Quincy Armory Dec. 12

Bellotti will eventually rise
in polifics because he is very
effective at communicating.
There is no disconnect be-
tween him and the constitu-
encies he represents across
Norfolk County. He is still
relatively young politically
and the future appears open
for him. Whether as a state
representative prior to his
election as sheriff in 1998,
he has always been a good
listener as well as a voice
for those he has served so

diligently.

If he had decided to run
for state auditor, he would
have gotten my support. 1
am still hoping that in the
not so distant future he gets
an opportunity to serve in a
statewide office. The Com-
monwealth of Massachu-
setts could use his brand of
leadership as Norfolk Coun-
ty has experienced in nearly
10 years as sheriff.

Isola Commends Roos, Thanks Her Supporters

Magazine Names Quincy
Top City In State

As a result of the School
Committee vote on Election
Day, I requested a recount
because of the one-vote
margin between myself
and Karl Roos. I wanted to
ensure the accuracy of the
vote.

Thank you to the Board
of Registrars and all of the
city workers who partici-
pated in the recount process.
The recount was run in a

professional manner and
city workers and many vol-
unteers for both candidates
worked so hard. I wish that
more of the public had the
opportunity to observe the
recount, because it shed a
spotlight on a fair and or-
derly process that helps to
ensure that the will of the
voters is carried out. The
sanctity of the vote is one of
the cornerstones that our de-

mocracy was built upon.

I commend Karl Roos
on the manner that he com-
ported himself during the re-
count. Although we were in
an adversarial situation, we
both treated each other with
respect and let the process
play out. In the end, Karl
was gracious in defeat and
was a true gentleman.

A special thank you to all
of my supporters who gave

so much time and energy
during the campaign and the
recount.

I look forward to the hard
work ahead as a member of
the School Committee and 1
pledge to do my best for our
children and our City.

Business Week Maga-

best city in Massachusetts
to raise a family based on a
series of quality-of-life sta-
tistics.

The magazine, which
ranked cities across the
country with populations
greater than 45,000 people,
cited Quincy 's school sys-
tem, its low crime rate, af-
fordability, its proximity
to Boston and 27 miles of

so much future potential."

Business Week, working
with OnBoard Informatics, a
New York-based provider of
real estate analysis, picked
one city and two runners-up
for each of the 50 states.

The data included school
performance, number of
schools, household expen-
ditures, crime rates, air
quality, job growth, family
income, museums, parks,
theaters, other amenities.

After 15 hours i)t careful-
ly t-Dunting 24.857 ballots bv
hiind in a city wide recount.
Barbara Isola emerged with
an 1 1 vote win over Karl
Rods liir the third seat on
the (,)uincy School Commit-
tee last week.

Ihe tv\o-day lecount re-
versed Koi)s"s one-vote win
over Isola m the general
election .Nov. 3.

Ihe tinal numbers
showed Isola with K.616
votes and Roos with 8.605
votes.

Isola told The .Sun she
was relieved by the results
and looks forward to begin-
ning her tour-year term in
January.

"As you can imagine.
it's a lot of hours and it was
nerve racking Looking
around yon could see that
the (recount) system works
and that's unbelievable.
Running for office brings
out how blessed 1 am to
have great people in my life.
It's very humbling."

She commended Roos
and his supporters. "1 can't
say enough about Karl and
his campaign."

Roos congratulated Isola
on her victory. "Barbara
worked hard and earned it.
She won the race fair and
square. It was a great field
of candidates. 1 expected the
race to be tight and it was
May hat goes off to all of the
candidates.

"1 entered the race be-
cause I care about our

schools, especially since
my children are in them I
thought I could help and
wanted to make a difference.
Ihe results of the race don't
change any of that 1 will
find other ways to help." he
said.

City Clerk .loseph Shea
said the two da> recount cost
ihe city S^.StK). Ihe recount
got underwav last luesdav
and resumed Wednesday
Ihe linal tall> was recorded
around 11:15 p.m. .Nov. IX
when Isola was declared the
winner.

All si\ candidates in
the sehool eominillee lield
picked up additional votes
m the recount. Ihe tinal
numbers showed incumbent
Anne Mahoney. who won
a second two-year term,
with 14,057 and second
place winner Emily Lebo -
who also won a seat - with
8.734.

Finishing in the fifth and
six spots were Matthew
Lockwood Mullaney with
7,665 votes and Rebecca
.McWilhams with 4.499
votes.

Only seven ballots were
challenged by Isola and
Roos during the recount. In
all. another 251 votes were
recorded amongst all six
candidates.

Shea primarily attributed
the disparity between the
Nov. 3 machine-vote tally
and the recount numbers to
ballots that were originally
counted as blank. "But in a
recount, it's the intent of the

voter that counts." he said.

For instance, some votes
cast Nov. 3 were not count-
ed because the voter failed
to connect the candidates
name with the proper arrow
on the ballot In that case,
the opti-scan machine failed
to read the vote.

But in a recount, the bal-
lot is counted if marks on
the ballot fairlv indicate
the voter's intent according
to state election law. Such
marks include underlining
or circling the candidate's
name or putting a check
mark next to the name.

In addition, the machine
tally doesn't count an "over-
vote ballot." That's when a
voter votes for more than
the allotted number of can-
didates in a particular race.
In the school race, voters
were asked for vote for not

more than tliree candidates
However, there were some
ballots that showed voles
for three candidates but the
voter also wrote his or her
name on the line that reads
■write-in candidate." 1 hat
would void the vote because
the machine reads four
votes.

Adams Montessori School
Receives $750 Grant

Adams Montessori

School in Quincy recently
received a $750 grant from
the Exxon Mobil Educatio-
nal Alliance program to sup-
port the school's programs.

Labebe Awde of AWDE

officials to secure the grant,
which is one of 2,400 avai-
lable to schools across the
country served by Exxon or
Mobil stations. The grants
were made possible by fun-
ding from the Exxon Mobil

Corporation.

"Adams Montessori

School works hard to make
learning interesting and
joyful," Awde said. "As an
Mobil retailer, 1 am proud to
help the young people of the
community."

Awde met stringent eli-
gibility criteria before app-
lying for and being awarded
this grant, including having
a commitment to provide a
superior buying experience
for customers.

Your pet's health and happiness are our #1 priority!

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Rules for everything
from boarders to boats, from
political signs to adult en-
tertainment and from home
businesses to kennels are
addressed in a citywide zon-
ing overhaul recommended
by the Mayor's Zoning Task
Force.

"This is essentially the
playbook for how we devel-
op the city over the next 10
to 20 years," Ward 5 Coun-
cillor Doug Gutro said of the
proposed zoning ordinance.

Gutro heads the Ordi-
nance Committee which be-
gins review of the proposal
this week after the Quincy
Sun deadline.

All zoning changes must
be approved by the City
Council after public hear-
ings.

"It's my intention to go
line by line," Gutro said,
adding the committee will
scrutinize every word.
"We're going to roll up our
sleeves and go through (ev-
ery issue)."

The document contains
dozens of changes address-
ing current issues, legalizing
some activities and prohibit-
ing others.

For example, the Task

Force recommendations
would allow two boarders
by right, banish long-term
boat storage and campers to
carports or "enclosed build-
ings." in residential areas,
restrict adult entertainment
venues and allow political
signs to stay up all year.

But those are just a smat-
tering of the hundreds lines
of legalise that would be
added and subtracted from
the city's zoning ordinance
under the Task Force recom-
mendations.

More importantly, the
Task Force addresses neigh-
borhood and business con-
cerns on development, ap-
pearances, lot and unit size,
signs and site plan review
and numerous other issues.

Under the proposal, new
powers and duties would
be assigned to the Planning
Board and the Zoning Board
of Appeals, both appointed
boards.

In addition, offenders
would face $300 a day fines,
up from the current $100 a
day fine and other penalties
and costs may be incurred
for filing fees and reviews.

THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL!

Currently, there seems to be Speaking of colored gemstones,

now is the time to indulge in the
biggest one of your choice.

Choosing jewelry for yourself
or someone else is always a
special occasion because it
makes such a personal statement.
When we design any jewelry
for a client, whether a bracelet,
necklace, earrings, ring, or
brooch, we strive for a piece of
jewelry that, the more you look at
it, the more it says and the more
you feel. We believe a design
should have an enduring, magical
quality to it. See the magic of our
custom designed jewelry at 1 402

no letup in the big-is-beautiful

trend in jewelry. When it

comes to earrings, necklaces,

and bracelets, there is renewed

interest in large-scale designs.

TTie trick to successfully pulling

off this look rests with an ability

to wear oversized pieces that do

not compete with one another.

One way to accomplish this feat

involves developing a theme that

can be carried out throughout

all the pieces being worn. For

instance, match round bangles

with circular pendants and

necklaces with big beads. Take

care to wear gemstones with

complementary colors and the

same precious metals throughout.

and edited, for legal pur-
poses, the original 103-page
ordinance submitted by the
Mayor's Task Force in June
and described the two main
categories of the modifica-
tions.

Madden said that, first,
the city must align its zon-
ing with current state legis-
lation and must, also, revise
ordinances to adhere to de-
cisions of Massachusetts ap-
pellate courts.

As one example, the
city's current rules on politi-
cal signs on private property
limit the size and the number
and establish time limits.

That ordinance, appar-
ently, does not conform to
court decisions so the modi-
fied ordinance only prohib-
its posting signs on public
property and only requires
the permission of the prop-
erty's owners.

There are no limits on the
time that a sign on private
property may stay up, their
numbers, or wording so
those "Koch" and "Phelan"
signs could stay put until the
next election.

The second part of the re-
visions, according to Mad-
den, deals with "quality of
life" issues. "For example,
the committee completely
redrafted the provisions
regarding the use of one's
home to conduct business.

"The Committee also rec-
ommended major changes

to control and regulate the
creation of additional dwell-
ing units in single-family
homes."

Several examples fol-
low:

• For those with a single
family but oversized home,
the new ordinance could al-
low, after site plan review,
an "accessory apartment" or
what's known as an "in-law
apartment" in other munici-
palities.

The owner must continue
to live in the house but the
newly created 9(X)-sq. ft.
apartment may be rented
to any tenants chosen by
the owner provided there is
additional parking and the
external structure remains
unchanged.

• Tough laws would pro-
hibit kennels, auto service or
repair service or the storage
of commercial landscaping
equipment or contractors'
equipment anywhere in resi-
dential areas.

• Garaging or parking
commercial vehicles will
be prohibited in Residence
A and Residence B districts.

• Under the proposed or-
dinance, "Fences shall not
be higher than six (6) feet,
except not higher than three
(3) feet within ten (10) feet
of the front lot line.

• Distinguishes between
those Home Occupations
allowed by right and those

Councillors Seek Kirk's Clout For Adams' Legacies

By LAURA GRIFFIN

City councillors voted
unanimously Nov. 16 to ask
the state's interim senator.
Sen. Paul Kirk, to support
two measures intended to
enhance the Adams' family
legacy.

Councillors acted on a re-
quest by Ward 5 Doug Gutro
who explained the need for
Congressional approval of
the legislation.

One bill would add the
Dorothy Quincy Homestead
to the Adams National His-

HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS

With so many Americans
feeling helplessly victimized by the
rising cost of health insurance and
provided with seemingly few viable
alternative options, it is time to talk
about "'health savings accounts"
(HSAs). While many employees
may express a willingness to take on
more of the responsibility for their
health care, relatively few know
what a health savings account is. In
fact, the plans, which were created
by the Medicare Prescription Drug
Modernization Act of 2003, are
typically combined with qualified
high-deductible health plans
(which have minimum deductibles
of $1,150 for single coverage and
$2,300 for family coverage). HSA
contributors can put pre-tax dollars
into HSAs to pay deductibles
and out-of-pocket expenses and
withdraw the funds on a tax-free

City Council scheduled a
public hearing on the city's
201 1 tax classifications at 7
p.m., Monday, Dec. 14.

Tax classifications for all
categories of property deter-
mine the final tax rate which
is set by the Department of
Revenue (DOR).

Mayor Thomas Koch
and his administrative team
will prepare the recommen-
dafions which must be ap-
proved by the council.

The DOR then reviews
the municipal assessments
and approves, or rejects,
each city's tax rate.

The new tax rate will be
reflected on the Jan. 1 tax
bill which will include all
data from the recent interim
revaluation.

"The changes will be re-
flected on the bills that go
out Jan. 1 ," Marion Fantuc-
chio. Chairperson of Board
of Assessors, said, referring
to the new assessments. The
DOR must, also, approve
the new valuations.

Once, the appraisal infor-
mation is approved by the
DOR, the new assessments
will be posted, according to
Fantucchio.

the new assessments pro-
vided by Visual Appraisal
of Northboro are a double-
edged sword as described
below:

On the one hand, their
property values are stable
or have even increased in a
stumbling real estate market
while other properties are
losing value and sales ap-
peal.

On the other hand in-
creased vajues and assess-
ments mean increased real
estate taxes.

Residents in five city
neighborhoods are likely
to see higher valuations on
their property, as are resi-
dents who built additions or
made other improvements
to their homes.

The five city neigh-
borhoods with properties
deemed undervalued by Vi-
sual Appraisal after the re-
cent review are Montclair,
Squantum, Adams Shore,
North Quincy and West
Quincy.

Property owners will be
able to access updated real
estate values on the city's
website after the DOR ap-
proves the new valuations.

Also hit by higher as-
sessments, and subsequent
higher taxes, are the city's
elder housing properties,
according to Ward 2 Daniel
Raymondi .

At the Nov. 16 City
Council meeting, Raymondi
described the vicious circle
of tax hikes which he be-
lieves endanger the city's
senior citizen residences.

Raymondi said the prop-
erties are assessed as to
their actual value and their
income, but each year that
the taxes increase, the rents
must be increased.

Those increases increase
the assessments and, subse-
quently, the tax bill.

Massachusetts oilheat re-
tailers are letting consumers
know that it's not too late for
them to save on winter heat-
ing costs by tuning up their
heating oil systems and tak-
ing other simple, practical
steps to conserve energy.

New oil furnaces are
highly efficient, but an an-
nual tuneup also keeps
existing equipment func-
tioning at top performance,
according to the heating oil
industry's Massachusetts
Oilheat Council (MOC).
Propedy maintained boilers
and furnaces can operate at
higher temperatures, while
burning less fuel, and thus
reduce heating bills by up to
10 percent.

"Havmg a trained oilheat
technician come to your
home lor an annual tune-
up can truly help you save
money on your energy, bills
this season. You'll use less
fuel, plus your system will
operate at its highest capa-
bility," said MOC President
Michael Ferrante.

In addition to the ease of
automatic delivery based on
degree-day usage, consum-
ers should also consider the
financial benefits of a budget
payment plan for their ener-
gy purchases that can spread

out fuel oil costs at the same

monthly level throughout

the year.

HEAT SAVING TIPS:

EASY DOs

• Get a heating system
tuneup — it'll ensure you
get maximum performance
from every drop of heating
oil burned.

• Open shades and drapes
when the sun is out to let
it help warm your home.
Close them when the sun
goes down.

• Turn back the thermo-
stat at night or when you are
awa\ from home; for ever>
degree you lower your ther-
mostat for 8 hours or more
each day. you'll save 2 per-
cent on your heating bill

• Wrap \our pipes to
guard against heat loss and
prevent them from freezing.

• Stop drafts by eliminat-
ing any gaps between your
door and the threshold on
the floor,

• Use a bottom seal that
can be attached to the bot-
tom of the door - it should
brush up against the floor to
seal up the threshold.

• Caulk or re-caulk ex-
terior spaces between the
windows and walls of your
home.

• Close your kitchen vent.

gutters around the roof so toolbox or storage box will

Inside your home, the
furnace is of prime im-
portance during the cold
season. Schedule a mainte-
nance checkup of the entire
system if you haven't done
so yet, and have repairs
made sooner rather than

ing rust or water damage to
the box or its contents.

A Job Well Done

LT. DAN MINTON

On Monday. Nov. 16, at approximately 10 p.m., Offi-
cers Michael Sullivan, Tim Simmons and Sergeant Patrick
Faherty responded to the Chipotle Mexican Grill locat-
ed at 60 Newport Ave. on a report of a disorder involv-
ing a knife. Sergeant Faherty
was first to arrive on scene and
learned that a knife was used
as part of an attempted armed
robbery. He broadcasted that
the suspects fled over the
foot bridge located behind 60
Newport Avenue leading to
Billings Road.

Officer Sullivan inter-
viewed the manager of Chipo-
tle, who stated that two white
males, one armed with a
knife, had just fled over
the foot bridge after attempt-
ing to rob the restaurant. The officer then interviewed
another employee who observed the incident. He said
that he was behind the service counter when a heavy set
male, dressed in a black winter coat, black knit hat, and
black pants entered the restaurant and asked to use
the bathroom.

The suspect left the restaurant and returned a few
minutes later with another male, dressed in a blue hood-
ed sweatshirt, black sweat pants with a grey stripe, and
a black baseball cap. The employee said that suspect 1
ordered a burrito, while suspect 2 just stood by the ser-
vice counter.

Once the burrito was made, suspect 1 approached
the cash register holding a knife and demanded that the
employee open the register. The employee told the sus-
pects that he could not open the register. Suspect #1 again
demanded that the register be opened. The employee then
shouted, "He has a knife," alerting the other employees in
the restaurant. The suspects then ran out of the restaurant
towards the foot bridge.

Another employee, who was washing dishes, heard
his co-worker yell out about the knife, so he went toward
the cash register and saw one suspect holding the knife as
he and the second suspect fled the restaurant. Another em-
ployee who heard the commotion by the register, ran after
the suspects as they fled, then called "911." At approxi-
mately 10:25 P.M., Detecfives' Coen and Ward located a
suspect fitting the description in the area of Dominos Piz-
za on 61 Hancock Street.

Detective Coen identified himself and the suspect con-
sented to speak with him. The suspect said he was com-
ing from tbe train station, was homeless and looking for
a place to stay for the night. Detective Coen noted that
the suspect had more facial hair than the inidal descrip-
tion provided, namely, a goat tee and light facial hair on
the side of his face. Sergeant Faherty confirmed that the
suspect did in fact have a goat tee.

Sergeant Faherty told Detective Coen that he
would come to the location because he just watched the
surveillance video of the suspects. Upon arrival, Ser-
geant Faherty told the Detecfives that he believed that
the suspect was the same man involved in the armed rob-
bery. The suspect was advised of his Miranda rights to
which he stated he understood and he stated he was will-
ing to speak. When asked if he was at Chipotle Mexican
Grill, the suspect said he didn't know the name of the
place but he was at a Mexican restaurant.

Detective Ward asked the suspect to tell what hap-
pened and he proceeded to admit to the armed robbery.
He stated that he entered the restaurant with another
male with the intent to rob the establishment of food
and money. The suspect stated that he did not know the
name of the suspect with him as he only met him once
before. The suspect said that the other suspect gave him
the knife and as they arrived at the cash register, he raised
the knife towards the cashier and demanded money from
the register. The suspect said that one of the employees
pushed nim and he and the unknown suspect ran out of the
restaurant. He also said that he took off his grey hoodie
and the unknown suspect handed him a blue hoodie and a
blue knit hat that he was wearing.

The unknown suspect took the knife back from him
and took his St. Louis baseball hat and placed it on his
own head. Once they crossed the foot bridge over the
train tracks, they split up, running in opposite direcfions.
Sergeant Faherty arrived with the witnesses and they con-
firmed that he was one of the suspects.

Officer Michael Sullivan arrived on scene and
placed the suspect, an 18 year old homeless man, un-
der arrest for armed robbery. A search revealed two hood-
ed sweatshirts (blue & gray) and a blue knit hat in the sus-
pect's backpack. The video from the surveillance camera
will be used to identify the second suspect, who is also
believed to be homeless.

lished by The Quincy Sun as a public service to make local
residents more aware of any crime activity in their neigh-
borhood.

Questions concerning the Hot Spots list should be di-
rected to Crime Prevention Officer Lt. Dan Minton, 617-
745-5719.

ANOTHER SCAM: The victim reports that he received
a telephone call stating that he was the prize winner of

He forwarded six money orders via Western Union, for a
total of $14,693 to a company "that does not translate into
English", according to the victim.

The 21 year old victim is now out the money. Appar-
ently, he never inquired as to what contest it was, nor did
he consider how he could have won if he didn't enter the
sweepstakes!

U.S. Marines will con-
tinue the tradition of collect-
ing "Toys for Tots" along
the Quincy Christmas Pa-
rade route Sunday, Nov. 29
which begins at 12:30 p.m.

The custom of collect-
ing the distributing toys for
needy children began on a
nation-wide basis 60 years
ago.

On Sunday, local Marine
reservists will walk along
the approximate 3-mile pa-
rade route placing toys in
the vehicles provided.

In Massachusetts last
year, more than 450,000

toys were distributed to chil-
dren in the Greater Quincy
area.

Due to the call-up of
Marine reservists, the need
to donate and collect these
gifts for the Toys for Tots
program is greater than it
ever has been.

In the Quincy area, the
Toys for Tots program is
directed by the 1st Battal-
ion, 25th Marines with the
cooperation of civilians and
former Marines.

To donate to the Toys for
Tots program, the public is

invited to bring new, un-
wrapped, non- violent toys
to the parade where they will
be picked up by the Marines
and placed in trucks passing
along the three-mile Han-
cock Street parade route.

The Quincy Christmas
Festival Committee mem-
bers, organizers of the 57*
Quincy Christmas Parade
are hopeful this year's spec-
tators will show the same
"Semper Fidelis" spirit that
they have shown in the past,
playing a role to the continu-
ing success of this Marine's
Toys for Tots program.

Turning On The Christmas Lights Friday

The Quincy Christmas
Festival Committee will
kick off a weekend of holi-
day programs with the Turn-
ing on the Christmas Lights

ria, across from Quincy City
Hall), 1250 Hancock St.,

tume characters will give

candy canes to children.

way at 7 p.m. with the an-
nouncement of the winners
of the elementary school
poster contest. The winners'

HEALTH and FITNESS

Mindful Eating For A Healthy Holiday Season

The holiday season can
be the most challenging time
of year to stick to a diet, lose
weight, or simply maintain
healthy eating habits.

Some individuals re-
luctantly choose to deny
themselves holiday treats or
substitute with unsatisfying
alternatives, while others
are unwilling to forgo the
holiday smorgasbord and
may overindulge.

Julie Redfem, RD. man-
ager of the Nutrition Con-
sult Services at Brigham and
Women's Hospital (BWH),
offers some useful ideas on
how to stay on track durmg
the holiday season without
completely missing out on
this delicious time of year.

To find a balance between
overindulgence and depriva-
tion when it comes to eating
during the holidays, Redfem
suggests these tips:

• Have a light snack be-
fore heading to holiday par-

ties. Arriving hungry often
results in over eating, and
most likely consuming foods
that are high in saturated fat
and calories.

• Offer to bring your fa-
vorite healthier choice dish
when attending a party to
ensure that you have some
healthy food options.

• Research healthy ingre-
dient swaps for your holiday
favorites. By switching out
whole milk and cream to 1 %
milk in a traditional eggnog
recipe saves you almost 2(X)
calories and 20g of fat per
serving.

• When attending holi-
day events, stop dressing for
excess. Choose form fitting
slacks that leave very little
"wiggle room" for over in-
dulgences. People tend to
overeat without realizing
it if they are wearing lose
clothing.

• Situate yourself far
from the food table. Close

proximity to food makes it
more difficult to resist.

• Carrying a clutch or
handbag can help keep your
hands busy and not grabbing
every hors d'oeuvres that
passes your way.

• Using a small plate
or no plate at all is a great
way to avoid overeating at
holiday events. You will ul-
timately eat less if you have
to walk back and forth from
the hor d'oeuvres table.

• It's all about portion
control. A dinner plate
should be half vegetables, a
quarter protein, and a quar-
ter carbs; and try to avoid
going back for seconds and
thirds.

• Channel your inner food
snob. Resist the foods you
can and save the calories for
your favorite holiday treats.

• Don't deprive yourself
of desserts, instead choose
the goodies that you like the
most and have smaller por-

tions.

• Serve big holiday meals
buffet style. Getting up for
seconds helps prevent mind-
less overeating that can oc-
cur if the food is within
arms reach. Wait at least 20
minutes before getting up
for seconds, as it can take
that long for your brain to
realize >ou are full

• Cut out some tat bv
skipping the skin on lurke>
or chicken and tr> refriger-
ating grav) and then skim
ming the fat off the top once
cooled.

• Be mindful of high
calorie holida) drinks like
apple cider and eggnog. tn-
joy only a small cup of your
favorite drink and sip lots of
water to help curb your ap-
petite.

• Eat once, not all night.
Picking at the food table all
night can quickly add up
calories, and you are more
likely to eat less healthy

American Cancer Society Offers A Meaningful
Alternative To Traditional Wedding Favors

A growing number of

ditional wedding favors and
choose to honor their guests
with a donation to their fa-
vorite charity, such as the
American Cancer Society.

For a donation, the So-
ciety offers meaningful fa-
vors that support lifesaving
cancer research, education
and prevention programs,
patient support services, and
advocacy efforts on behalf
of cancer patients, survi-
vors, and their caregivers.
The favor will reflect the
couple's needs; whether
they want to honor a person
close to them, or just want
their guests to know they are

making a difference in the
fight against cancer.

bookmarks, place cards,
scrolls, tent-fold cards, or

VOICE
FOR

HEALTH

ON THE RISE

As skiers and snowboarders
take more risks by going faster
and attempting more acrobatic
jumps, there has been a sharp rise
in serious head and spinal injuries.
According to one study, spinal cord
injury among child snowboarders
and skiers has climbed 1 30 peicent
during a recent 25-year period.
During the same time, adolescents
on the slopes experienced a 407
percent rise in similar injuries.
Snowboarders were found to be
more likely to sustain serious head
or spinal injuries than skiers, and
younger men were more at risk
for these injuries than their female
counterparts. Because these injuries
have potentially devastating long-
term consequences, skiers and
snowboarders are urged to never
ski/snowboard alone, wear helmets
and appropriate gear, and quit
before tiring.

From professional athletes to
weekend warriors, from young

to old, and for all those active
baby boomers in between, the
FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC specializes
in treating sports and recreational
injuries. Have you suffered injury?

PS. According to the research
mentioned above, ski- and
snowboard-related injuries are
most likely to occur on ungroomed
and rough snow than on soft snow.

New Treatments

for Rheumatoid

Arthritis

DEAR DR. DONOHL E: 1
developed rheumatoid arthri-
tis four years ago. I am still
working, lifting 70 pounds
and pushing up to 150 pounds
in a handcart, and I work 10
hours a day. I had been on
methotre.\ate, but it made
me sick. Then I went on hy-
droxychloroquine. Next was
Enhrel, and now rituximah.
I am a 47-year-old woman
and have worked 22 years at
my job. Mv insurance com-
pany Ls denying me cover-
age for rituximah because I
don't take methotrexate. So I
have hit a wall. People tell me
to write to you for a cure. Is
there one? -G.G.

ANSWER: There isn't a
cure for rheumatoid arthritis,
but so man\ newer treatments
exist that control of it is pos-
sible for most patients. Rheu-
matoid arthritis is the less com-
mon kind of arthritis. It usually
strikes between the ages of 35
and 50. and more women have
it than men.

Rheumatoid arthntis. unlike
osteoarthritis -- the common
kind of arthritis - is more than
a joint disease It's a systemic
disea.se That means the en-
tire body IS affected by it. and
many organs can be involved
- the lungs, the lung coverings,
the heart, bkxxl vessels, eyes,
spleen and bones. Systemic
symptoms include fatigue and
weakness The hands, wrists,
knees, feet, elbows and neck
are the joints most affected.
They become swollen, red, hot,
painful and often deformed.
The goals of treatment are relief
of pain, reduction of inflamma-
tion, stopping joint destruction
and maintaining joint function
There are some things you
can do on vour own. Exercise

• If you find yourself
lonely bored during the hol-
idays try treating yourself
to something you might not
treat yourself to on a regular
basis Ideas can range from
a trip to the movies, a nap. a
manicure, or co/ying up to a
good book or magazine uith
a cup of warm tea

ANSWER: Glaucoma

comes about from a nse of fluid
pressure in the eye and from
damage to the optic nerve at the
back of the eye Lowenng fluid
pressure - often with eyedrops

- preserves the optic nerve and
vision.

Caffeine can slightly raise

if the rise of pressure would be

77th City Football Championship

Quincy Presidents vs. North Quincy Red Raiders

Senior Leadership To Be Factor

Presidents Aiming To
Make It Eleven Straight

By SEAN BRENNAN

After completing a de-
cade of dominance follow-
ing last year's 27-17 victory
over North Quincy in the
annual Thanksgiving Day
football game, this year's
Quincy Presidents will be
playing, on Thursday, for
their eleventh straight Tur-
key Day win over the Red
Raiders.

Quincy finished the regu-
lar season with a 2-7 overall
record. The team, playing
this season in the Patriot
League's Fisher Division,
opened the fall with four
consecutive losses (Cohas-
set. Duxbury, Hingham and
Plymouth South) before fi-
nally earning their first win
with a come-from-behind
thriller over Pembroke HS
(27-26). That win was fol-
lowed by a loss to Hanover.
Quincy won its second game
of the fall following a shut-
out of Randolph HS, 13-0,
on Nov. 6 before closing the
year with straight losses to
Rockland and Middleboro.

But that was then. The
annual tilt with North Quin-
cy is now.

"It is especially nice in a
season like this where it has
not gone the way anybody
had hoped," said QHS head
coach Bill Reardon when
discussing how his team's
season has played out and
what the annual Thanks-
giving Day game means in
terms of finishing the year
on a high-note. "So, you
kind of get to say alright,
that season is over and now
you have a one game sea-
son because really if we are
fortunate enough to win on
Thursday that is all the kids
will remember."

And, for Quincy High
School, a win on Thanks-
giving has become almost
conmionplace. In Reardon 's
first go-around as head foot-
ball coach at Quincy in this
game, he relied on a number
of seniors and experienced
players to carry his team to
victory. This year, the Presi-
dents can be considered a
little wet-behind-the ear in
regards as to what to expect
on Thanksgiving, but even
with that factor in mind,
Reardon has stuck to what
has worked for the last ten
.seasons and he expects his
team to respond to the chal-
lenge.

'The game plan changes
because the personnel has
changed, but in terms of the
message we are sending and

our preparation we kind of
keep it standard," Reardon
said about the way his staff
and team has gotten ready
for this game. "We are very
superstitious so whatever we
have done the last ten years
we continued doing."

Even after finishing an
up-and-down 2009 cam-
paign, a year that saw Quin-
cy struggle to score points
on offense (8.8 points per
game), the Presidents do
have an ace up their sleeve
in senior quarterback Lance
Peterson. Peterson (three
TD passes), along with fel-
low senior captains Kenny
Nguyen (rushing TD) , James
Nguyen and Ngozi Agu-
guo (receiving TD), have
been successful offensively
against North Quincy and if
the Presidents want to keep
their streak intact, the team
is going to have to rely on
this core, along with a hand-
ful of other seniors, juniors
and sophomores, to get the
job done.

"I want to make sure
that one, we take care of
the football. We can't throw
interceptions and we can't
fumble the ball," Reardon
said about what his offense
needs to do in order to be
successful against a fast
and physical Red Raider de-
fense. "And two. particular-
ly on the offensive line, that
we execute our assignments.
If we are supposed to block
right, make sure we block
right. If we are supposed
to block left, make sure we
block left.

"The way it is set up we
cannot afford to give North
Quincy extra opportunities.
If we shoot ourselves in the
foot it is going to be a very
long day. We have to play
well and execute."

When Peterson is be-
hind center, he will have a
number of weapons at his
disposal. Besides Ken and
James Nguyen and Aguguo,
other players to watch for
when Quincy has posses-
sion are senior Tom Lowry
(TD), juniors Rorm News-
ome (three rushing TDs)
and Tom Paluzzi (TD) and
sophomore sensation Reg-
gie Cesar (two TDs, all-
league selection).

"(I) remind Lance all the
time that he is the team lead-
er, and he is fine with that,
and he is very good about
putting the team on his
back," said Reardon about
his senior quarterback. "He
needs to be head strong be-
cause there is not much ex-
perience here and we need
him to be our leader. I ex-
pect him to do well . The rest
of the guys on offense are
young, but they have gotten
better each week.

"Obviously. Reggie has
gotten better and my offen-
sive line has improved. Ronn
has been a nice addition. He
is a quick kid, a tough kid
and he is our leading scorer.
When Lance throws he will
be looking to Ngozi who is
our big guy and, he has the
size and, he is always easy
to find, and James Nguyen,

77th City Football Championship

Quincy Presidents vs. North Quincy Red Raiders

Looking To End 10-Game Losing Streak

North Quincy Starving
For Win On Thanksgiving

By SEAN BRENNAN

The last time the North
Quincy Red Raiders have
walked off the field at Veter-
ans Memorial Stadium vic-
torious on Thanksgi ving , the
majority of the current roster
was in elementary school; it
has been that long.

Since claiming the city
championship with a 21-6
victory in 1998, North Quin-
cy has dropped ten straight
Thanksgiving Day games
to Quincy High School, in-
cluding last year when the
team lost 27-17. Entering
the 77"" annual game, the
Red Raiders will be looking
to put that losing streak be-
hind them and forge a win-
ning streak of their own.

North Quincy will bring
a 3-7 overall record into this
year's contest. The team,
playing their first season in
the Patnot League's Keenan
Division, opened the season
with consecutive wins over
Boston Latin Academy and
Sharon High School before
losing six straight games to
Plymouth South, Rockland,
Maiden, Duxbury, Hingham
and Scituate; the Red Raid-
ers earned their third victory
of the year with a 14-7 deci-
sion over Whitman -Han son
HS before closing out their
regular season with a 21-0
shutout loss to Silver Lake
HS.

But when it comes to
Thanksgiving, you have to
wipe the slate clean. It is
now just a one-game sea-
son and that is the approach
North Quincy must take
when play gets underway on
Thursday.

'The game in general , not
including the streak, is very
important, the kids are aware
of the size and magnitude of
the game," said NQHS head
coach Jim Connor speak-
ing about the annual game
versus Quincy. "I spent the
first few years coaching try-
ing to ground them as best
I could. I tried to tell them
it was just another game,
don't get nervous, lets just
go out and play. I tried that
approach but now when you
add in the streak, the weight
gets even heavier and each
year we don't win, and it has
been ten years, the kids feel
the pressure.

"But it doesn't matter
who has been better, who
has played better, who has
the better record, because
in these games emotions
take over and both teams are
even and because it is even
and because we haven't won

in a while, I think we are the
underdogs until we do win.

"It is now a one-game
season. You can feel the
emotion in the school, you
can feel it in the hallways
and you can see it in prac-
tice. The tempo in practice
has been better and more
intense, so there are a lot of
great things that go into pre-
paring for this game.

"The worst thing in the
world is when you lose this
game. It deflates more than
half the city, it would be
nice to have the competi-
tion a little closer for future
games."

With the pressure on, the
Red Raiders have the senior
leadership and experience
on offense to end this streak.
The team has an all-league
quarterback in Mike Stan-
ton (five TDs), a veteran of-
fensive line, a solid number
one receiver in senior Paul
Reamer (four TDs) and a
core of productive running
backs, led by senior Ter-
rence Staley (nine TDs).

"We do have a lot of se-
niors but we also have some
seniors playing in their first
Thanksgiving Day game,
but we have more starters
returning than Quincy," said
Connor. "It is great to have
this experience under our
belt going into this game
and hopefully we will see a
little more poise.

"For Mike, unfortunate-
ly playing quarterback, he
probably has a little more
pressure, but that pressure
is the same for every senior
playing in this game. Mike
has been solid all year for
us and he has received great
blocking from our returning
starters on the offensive line
including Mike Benoit (all-

league), AJ Morfe and Owen
Kilcullen. We also returned
tight ends Brian Donaghey
and Trevor Richardson and
our two new offensive line-
men Greg McDouglas and
Keegan Byron have played
well."

If North Quincy can uti-
lize its size and depth on
the line, the team's running
backs could have a field day
against the Presidents. Staley
has been productive the last
two seasons (14 TDs), but
he also has received support
from juniors Seyi Adesuyan
(three TDs), Mike Morrison
(TD), Mike Curren and Kyle
McKay this fall.

"If these guys do what
we have done occasionally
this season, and I think this
may be the most talented
team I have coached, we
should be in good shape,"
said Connor. "Staley is a
1 ,(XX)-yard rusher. Seyi is a
special player; he is big and
strong and was the MVP of
the junior varsity team last
year. With these two and
with Kyle, Mike Morrison
and Mike Curren we could
be good in this game and
next year."

When Quincy has the
ball, the Red Raiders will
lean heavy on a number of
returning starters on de-
fense. Players like Benoit
(OL/DL), Kilcullen (OL/
DL), Reamer (WR/DB).
Donaghey (TE/LB), Rich-
ardson (TE/DE) and Co-
lin Hayes (OL/DL) will be
asked to make the big plays
to get Stanton and the of-
fense back on the field.

"I expect these returning
starters to play with a lot of
enthusiasm, energy and in-
tensity," said Connor, "but

QuIncy Presidents vs. North Quincy Red Raiders

James Nguyen, Reggie Cesar,
Mike Stanton & Mike Benoit

2 Presidents, 2

Raiders Patriot

League All-Stars

The North Quincy Red
Raiders and the Quincy
Presidents, members of the
Patriot League, had a com-
bined four players named
to the Ali-League-AII-Star
team for the 2009 season.

A panel of the league's 12
coaches meet last week and
made the all-star selections.

The Red Raiders (3-7
overall, 1-4 in the Keenan
Division) had two student-
athletes named to the all-
league team. Senior quar-
terback Mike Stanton (five
touchdowns, l,(X)0-»- yards
passing) was named to his
second All-League team
while senior offensive/de-

fensive lineman Mike Benoit
was named to his first All-
League team.

Both Stanton and Benoit
were team captains this fall
for North Quincy.

The Presidents (2-7 over-
all, 2-3 in the Fisher Divi-
sion) also had two student-
athletes named to the Patriot
League all-star team. Senior
James Nguyen (a team cap-
tain) who played at running
back and linebacker was
named to his first all-star
team and sophomore run-
ning back Reggie Cesar (two
touchdowns) earned his first
all-star nod, as well, this
fall.

1947 Game Drew Largest Crowd

As the 77'*' annual foot-
ball game between North
Quincy and Quincy ap-
proaches tomorrow, the
debate about which of the
previous seventy-six af-
fairs drew the biggest crowd
comes down to either the
game in 1946 or 1947.

It appears the 1947 game
had the largest paid atten-
dance, reported to have been
18,003. In 1946, the paid at-

tendance was 16,065.

Many esfimate that close
to 25,000 saw the 1947
game, if you count those
who watched from the walls
and trees, and those who
lined the bus yard where the
MBTA garage now stands.

The biggest previous
crowd prior to 1946 was
the 15,000 who watched the
1939 game.

Two Running Backs Lead The Way

N. Quincy 's Terrence Staley, Quincy 's
Ronn Newsome Leading Scorers

North Quincy and Quincy
will both be looking to end
the 2009 football season on
a high note when the kickoff
of the 77"' annual Thanksgiv-
ing Day game gets underway
at 10 a.m. Thursday at Vet-
erans Memorial Stadium,
and every year, without fail,
a player or players have
stepped up and contributed
in a major way; this year will
be no different.

The Raiders will take a
3-7 record into the game and
will be looking to come away
with a victory for the first
time since they won 21-6 in
1998. North Quincy, through
ten games, is averaging 15.5
points per game while al-
lowing opponents to score at
23.2 points per game pace.

Quincy will enter the 77"'
annual showdown with a 2-7
record and will be aiming for
their eleventh straight vic-
tory on Thanksgiving. Quin-
cy won 27-17 in 2008. The
Presidents are averaging 8.8
points per game while allow-
ing opponents to score 28.7
points per game.

This Thursday, on the of-
fensive side of the field, both
high schools will be leaning
on their respective leading
scorers, as well as a number
of other productive players,
including running backs, re-
ceivers and quarterbacks.
North Quincy Red Raiders

For North Quincy, se-
nior captain Terrence Staley
(nine rushing touchdowns)

leads the way. Staley opened
the year with gangbusters.
He exploded for four touch-
downs (2, 4, 50 and 90 yards)
and 212 yards against Bos-
ton Latin Academy as the
Red Raiders started the sea-
son off with a 33-7 victory.
Staley followed that perfor-
mance up with an impressive
encore against Sharon HS in
the season's second game, a
41-22 victory. Staley ran for
214 yards and four touch-
downs against the Bulldogs.

He scored his ninth rush-
ing touchdown of the fall

14 touchdowns the last two

Senior wide receiver

nior and senior year with six
touchdown receptions.

Staley and Reamer scored
TDs in last year's 27-17
Thanksgiving Day defeat to

This season, junior run-
ning back Seyi Adesuyan was

a nice complimentary back
to Staley. Adesuyan scored
three rushing TDs this fall.
He scored on a five-yard run
against Sharon HS, scored
against Hingham HS and
scored the Red Raiders' lone
touchdown in a 34-6 loss to
Scituate HS on Oct. 30.

Senior quarterback Mike
Stanton (captain) threw for
five touchdowns this season
and rushed for two of his
own. He scored in his team's
28-12 loss to Plymouth
South HS and also in North's
21-6 loss to Keenan Division
champion Duxbury HS on
Oct. 16.

Junior defensive back
Kyle McKay scored two
defensive touchdowns for
North Quincy. He returned a
fumble 30-yards in the sea-
son-opener against Boston
Latin (he also had two INTs)
and followed that game-
changing play up with a 70-
yard interception return for a
TD against Sharon HS.

Junior Mike Morrison
caught a TD pass from Stan-
ton and sophomore defen-
sive back Marquis Chase re-
turn a blocked punt for a TD
in North Coney's 14-7 upset
win over Whitman-Hanson
HS on Nov. 6.

Quincy Presidents

For the Presidents, junior
running back Ronn News-
ome led the team with three
rushing touchdowns. News-
ome scored his team's only
TD against Duxbury HS on

Sept. 25 (33-6 loss); he found
the end zone on Oct. 30 in a
13-0 win for Quincy over
Randolph HS and scored his
third touchdown of the sea-
son on Nov. 6 in a 28-14 de-
feat against Rockland HS.

Newsome 's battery mate
in the backfield, sophomore
Reggie Cesar, found the end
zone twice this year for the
Presidents. Cesar scored a
go-ahead touchdown against
Pembroke HS (a game in
which he ran for 105 yards
and blocked a game-wiiming
field goal attempt) on Oct.
16 and scored again in a
35-6 defeat to Hanover HS
on Oct. 23.

Senior quarterback Lance
Peterson (three TD passes)
scored two rushing touch-
downs this season, both
against Pembroke HS. Peter-
son's TDs propelled Quincy
to its first victory of the sea-
son, 27-26.

Senior wide receiver Tom
Lowry caught a TD pass
from Peterson in Quincy's
13-0 win over Randolph
HS (Oct. 30); junior run-
ning back Tom Paluzzi had
a touchdown reception in
the Presidents' 27-26 win
over Pembroke HS; senior

28-14 loss at Rockland HS
(Nov. 6) and senior Kenny

Presidents Aiming To
Make It Eleven Straight

Cant 'd. From Pas^e 20

our fullback is our leading
receiver.

"So if we can stay fo-
cused and be prepared we
should be able to move the
ball against North Quincy
and with these seniors and
the experience they have
playing in this game we
should be able to respond to
any adversity."

On defense, Quincy is
going to have its hands full.
North Quincy is led by All-
League quarterback Mike
Stanton (five TD passes, 2
rushing TDs, 1 ,000+ passing
yards). Stanton's favorite
target when he drops back to
pass is senior wide receiver
Paul Reamer (four TDs), but
his greatest asset is a strong
offensive line and a stable of
productive running backs.
Stanton can hand the ball
off to senior Terrence Staley
(nine rushing TDs, 1,000+
yards rushing) and juniors
Seyi Adesuyan (three TDs),
Mike Morrison (TD) and
Kyle McKay. This depth is
not only going to challenge
the Presidents defense but
will put additional pressure

on Peterson and the offense
to control the time of pos-
session.

"Stanton is an all-league
quarterback but the most
important thing we have to
do on defense is we have to
tackle," said Reardon. "The
first guy that gets to Staley
has to hold on and not let go.
We have to keep Reamer in
front of us, and we need to
get pressure on Mike.

"If he is standing there
comfortable he is going to
pick us apart even if we got
the guy covered. We got to
pressure him."

Reardon, though not di-
rectly coming out and say-
ing it, needs his seniors (and
defensive line) to show up
on defense, and according
to him, it all starts with the
play of James Nguyen.

"James, a senior captain,
is a key for us. If he plays
well we are in the game and
if he doesn't we are not, but
1 expect him to play well as
he has most of the year. The
defensive line will also have
to play solid. They need
to stay low and not stand
up and if that happens we

should be able to get off the
field."

For Reardon the legacy
of Quincy 's football success
on Thanksgiving is under-
stood. Last year the pres-
sure to keep the streak intact
was a factor; this season not
much has changed. Quincy,
the last ten years, have dom-
inated this game, winning is
expected, and that will con-
tinue to be a driving force
when kickoff commences at
10a.m. Thursday.

"There will always be
pressure just because it is
Thanksgi ving , and you don't
want to lose," said Reardon.
"At the same time, having
won last year, we know what
to do in order to win.

"We may be young, but
it is matter of keeping ev-
eryone focused and in check
and as I always say it the fa-
miliarity of the kids you are
playing against. They know
Staley, the know Stanton,
they know Mike Benoit;
they have grown up with
these kids. They won't be a
fish out of water when the
game starts. It should be an-
other good game."

North Quincy Starving
For Win On Thanksgiving

QUINCY'S RO^fN NEWSOME, shown here trying to break a tackle against Cohasset High
School, led the Presidents in scoring this season with three rushing touchdowns. Newsome
scored the game-winning touchdown against Randolph HS on Oct. 30.

Cont 'd. From Page 20

I really want them to show
some poise, to call out some
tendencies, and understand
what we have scouted. That
is what I want to see, not just
here comes that crazy undis-
ciplined animal at Thanks-
giving. 1 want them to know
their responsibilities and
play with technique."

Quincy, on offense, will
present North with a bevy of
challenges. Senior quarter-
back Lance Peterson (three
TDs) is a winner and the
Presidents have a number
of running backs, including
Ronn Newsome (three TDs),
Kenny Nguyen (TD), James
Nguyen (leading receiver)
and Reggie Cesar (two TDs,
all-league selection), who
can do damage running with
the ball. Senior wide re-
ceiver Ngozi Aguguo (TD)
is also a threat catching the
deep pass.

"Quincy has Cesar, an
all-league running back,
who is incredible fast and

every Ume we watch film on
him he seems to get better
and better," Connor added.
"You got the Nguyens who
are scary and productive and
then you have Lance Peter-
son, who is a guy who gets
the job done against us.

"He is a threat that we are
worried about. He can throw
it to Ngozi. It is that kind of
stuff that we will prepare for
and hopefully be ready for
when they are on offense."

Losing ten straight games
to your archrival has amped
up the Red Raiders, and Con-
nor has noticed the increase
in his team's motivation in
an attempt to make sure this
is the year the losing streak
comes to an end.

"Starting last Monday, we
have done a lot of film work,
both in our pass game and of
course watching some film
of Quincy, and have gone
back to basics, and slowly
started to implement new
things that we are going to do
against Quincy on offense.

defense and special teams,"
said Connor about how his
team has prepared to face the
Presidents. "Everything is
installed and we will practice
it and try and get it as close
to perfect as we can."

Even with a losing re-
cord entering Thanksgiving,
the first under-. 500 season
in two years, Connor has
brought the North Quincy
football program back to re-
spectability. A win on Thurs-
day would go a long way to
cementing that success in
stone.

"It is all about building a
program with good people
with good character," said
Connor. "I think we are get-
ting to a point, although ob-
viously our record this year
may not indicate it, that
things are heading in the
right direction. If we can win
on Thanksgiving, finishing
4-7 and playing in a tough
division, it can help save the
season ."

NORTH QUINCY'S TERRENCE STALEY, shown here fighting for yards against Sharon
High School, led the Red Raiders in scoring this season with nine rushing touchdowns. Staley
ran for close to 1,000 yards.

On Thanksgiving Day, let us be grateful

that we, as Americans, live in a country

which is committed to the conviction that

there are extraordinary possibilities in

ordinary people.

SCOTT DEWARE Let US, as Americans, be grateful that

in our country a man can go as far as his God-given talents

and his determination will take him.

Let us, as Americans, be grateful that in our country every
man is held endowed with certain unalienable rights and among
these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Let us, as Americans, be grateful that our country is dedi-

and that each racial or cultural or reUgious group is encouraged
to be true to itself and thus contribute its distinctive note to the
symphony of our democracy.

Above all, let us, as Americans, be grateful that we are free
to express our love for our country by criticizing it, by pointing
up its still unfinished business, by trying to make it a better
country tomorrow than it is today.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
There could be an unexpected
change in plans for your upcom-
ing holiday travels. But keep in
mind that a little flexibility goes
a long way in resolving any dis-
appointments.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
A new relationship might not be
responding quite as quickly as
you'd hoped. Could you be ex-
pecting too much ttxi soon? Try
to ease up and let things happen
at their own pace.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
As we approach the frenetic
pace of pre-holiday planning,
take time out now to recon-
nect with the wonderful people
who share your life, especially
the one who also shares your
dreams.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
A misunderstanding should be
resolved before you get caught
up in the flurry of holiday prepa-
rations. Set your pride aside and
deal with it, regardless of who
might have hurt whom first.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Be-
ing told that a colleague might
have been trying to undercut
your effectiveness might or
might not be true. Get all the
facts before you even think
about acting on this so-called
information.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) It's a good idea to start
your holiday preparation plans
eariy in order to avoid a time
crunch if an unresolved work-
place situation causes a prob-
lem. That old friend might have
some welcome news.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) A family member's
actions continue to surprise
you, but this time with posi-

SalOITK^'S

Slars

five results. Could be your wise
counsel finally got through. It's
like having an eariy holiday gift,
isn't it?

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) Your reluctance to
act in a current situation could
be traced to your inner self ad-
vising you to take more time to
study its complexities before
you attempt to deal with it.
Good luck.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Soothing
hurt feelings before they can
ignite an angry outburst is the
wise thing to do. And, of course,
when it comes to doing the "wis-
dom thing," you do it so well.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Budget your time
so that you can handle both your
workplace duties and your per-
sonal holiday planning - includ-
ing travel arrangements - with-
out burning out on either end.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) You might find
that you still need to firm up one
or two of those still-outstanding
decisions so that you can fi-
nally move forward as you had
planned. Weigh the facts, then
act.

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) You usually don't carry
grudges, but you might feel this
is one time when you're justi-
fied in doing so. But aren't you
spending too much energy hold-
ing onto it? Let it go and move
on.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a way of using your quiet
strength to persuade people to
follow their better instincts and
do the right thing.

Sweeping Changes Proposed
To Revamp City's Zoning

STUDENTS GOVERNMENT LEADERS from Quincy and North Quincy High Schools were

Zoning Task Force Winds
Down After Nearly Two Years

Mayor Thomas Koch appointed a 10-member Zoning
Task Force in early 2008 with the goal of organizing and
revising the city's zoning regulations.

The Task Force did that as evidenced by the detailed up-
dates and revisions to the zoning code presented last June to
Koch and submitted to the City Council in September with
the final draft last week.

"Mayor Koch's zoning task force worked for over 16
months reviewing, word by word, every section of the city's
zoning ordinance," said Kevin Madden, Assistant City So-
licitor, in a written report to the council.

Now, that document has been reviewed and edited by the
city's legal department and the final decisions on the zoning
overhaul are up to the City Council.

The Task Force included the following members: Ar-
chitect James Edwards, Engineer Robert Kachinsky, Atty.
Gregory Galvin, Atty. Steven Striffler, former Zoning Board
of Appeals member William Cunniff, retired City Planning
Director Richard Meade, Councillors John Keenan and Jo-
seph Finn and residents Jimmy Wong and Melissa Kelleter-
Stamos.

Business C District have a
maximum m FAR (Floor
Area Ratio) of three and five
tenths, minimum lot size of
forty-two thousand square
feet, minimum lot area per
dwelling unit of 500 sq.
ft."

As presented, the pro-
posed ordinance does not
include the wind turbine or-
dinance enacted recently by
City Council.

Councillors will, also.

review at a later date new
ordinances adding two ad-
ditional zoning districts the
Wollaston Center and the
North Quincy business dis-
trict to Special District Zon-
ing.

That Special Districts,
also, includes the Quincy
Center, Flood Plain and
Open Space Districts previ-
ously enacted and basically
unchanged in the proposed
revision.

4- Year Mayoral Terms Draw
More Support Than Opposition

FLOAT ENTRY by the Jamie Cochrane Memorial Road Race Committee was the grand
prize winner in Sunday's 57th annual Quincy Christmas Festival Parade. The committee,
which organizes a road race in memory of the late Quincy police officer, received the Fr.
Thomas Ticmey TVophy and a cash prize of $1300.

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Supporters of a four-year
mayoral term outnumbered
opponents 1 1 -2 at Monday's
public hearing called by the
City Council. Four spoke in
favor of the change while
one opposed a change.

Those favoring the
change cited the cost and in-
stability of short terms while
opponent Joseph O'Malley
fears "lifers" and lack of
oversight for long-term of-
fice-holders.

Speaker Bill Zamzow
tied a longer term to a pn>-
cess for recall or impeach-
ment so. "We wouldn't be
stuck with a problem."

Nearly all said the issue
should be a ballot question
and cited the financial cost
of constant campaigning to
the city, the candidates and
residents.

"The people should have
an opptirtunitv to vote on
this." said the first speaker,
John Gillis. a Norfolk Coun-

ty Commissioner and tormer

ONE OF A KIND

Those bom during the month the world
of December should take great
delight that their birthstone is quite
rare. As its name implies, gorgeous,
blue Tanzanite is found only one
place in the world — Tanzania. It
was virtually in the shadow of
the famed Mount Kilimanjaro
in this east African nation that
tanzanite was first discovered in
1967. Whether or not it has lived
up to its enthusiastic billing as the
"gem stone of the 20* century,"
there is no denying that this
beautiful gem possesses a deep-blue
hue surrounded by a hint of purple
that warrants comparison with blue
sapphire. This remarkable color
combines with lovely transparency
and exclusivity to make it one of
the most desirable gemstones in

Street- Works LLC, mas-
ter developer of New Quin-
cy Center, has entered into
a key alliance with Boston-
based Suffolk Construction
in the $1.4 billion private-
public reconstruction of the
historic center.

"We are very pleased
to have John Fish and Suf-
folk Construction as an inte-
gral part of our team," said
Street- Works co-founding
partner Kenneth Narva.
"Suffolk exhibits all of the
strengths and priorities we
think are crucial, particular-
ly in the successful execu-
tion of a project as complex
as the New Quincy Center
master development plan.

"John and his team at
Suffolk bring a unique set of
skills and invaluable experi-
ence to the table, and have
made the rethinking of all
aspects of the construction
process for large scale proj-
ects the top priority. From
the impact of sustainability
and green initiatives on the
built environment, to con-

structability and the role of
tomorrow's technology on
every component of the site
and buildings that comprise
a project like Quincy, they
are committed to helping us
build quicker, smarter, and
more cost effectively. While
construction means and
methods have changed little
over the past 100 years, they
must if future development
is to 'aeet the demands of
today's very different eco-
nomic and urban landscape"
Narva added.

Among the strengths
necessary to insure suc-
cess for this alliance are an
insistence on collaborative
teamwork, a passion for
creative problem solving, a
commitment to strong and
open public-private sector
working relationships, and
a "laser focus on ensuring a
positive impact for the com-
munity," Narva said.

"John Fish and his team
exhibit every one of these
strengths, as well as a his-
tory of working effectively

in Quincy," Narva said.

The Street-Works/Suf-
folk alliance comes at a time
when local and national real
estate and development are
at a crossroads. The events
of the past 18 months are
reshaping the landscape
and value of almost all real
estate. Many major area
projects of all types are at a
standstill, and may well be
for the foreseeable future.

"But in Quincy we con-
tinue to move forward on
all fronts. This alliance with
Suffolk is a joining together
of the successful track re-
cords and experience of two
firms positioned to help re-
alize the once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity before us," said
Narva.

Over the past 26 years,
Suffolk has become one of
the most successful private-
ly-held building contractors
in the country, with offices
in Boston, Virginia, Florida
and California.

"There are many aspects
of the New Quincy Cen-

ter project that make it an
incredible opportunity for
Suffolk, including the im-
portance of this project to
Quincy, the exciting design,
and the chance to work with
a developer and administra-
tion committed to creating
an outstanding urban space.
We are absolutely thrilled to
be a part of this team and to
play a critical role in making
the vision for this project a
reality," said Fish, president
and CEO of Suffolk Con-
strued on.

The Street-Works plan
will introduce major design
and infrastructure changes
to Quincy Center while re-
inforcing and retaining the
area's distinctive roots, his-
tory and feel. The plan will
create a revitalized down-
town neighborhood with a
new residential community,
new office space focused on
wellness, education and cor-
porate users large and small,
two new hotels, and an ap-
propriate venue for selected

City Considering Litigation Over Honeywell Contract

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Lawyers from two inter-
national legal powerhouses
have joined the fray as dis-
putes mount between Hon-
eywell International Inc.
and the City of Quincy.

"We're contemplating
all our options, including
litigation," said Chris Walk-
er, policy chief for Mayor
Thomas Koch who has con-
tracted with the legal firm of
Mintz Levin to handle issues
related to the Honeywell en-
ergy contract.

At the same time, Honey-
well's legal counsel Nixon
Peabody, another interna-

tional legal firm, has already
fired off a warning to city
officials.

Nixon Peabody 's Nov.
20 e-mail invited the city to
"move the (energy) project
forward in the interests of the
parties," but also cautioned
city officials that Honeywell
guarantees are tied to using
Honeywell contractors for
maintenance.

The e-mail from Atty.
David Vicinanzo referred to
Koch's request for approval
of a $200,000 transfer for
additional building main-
tenance due to the alleged
failure of Honeywell equip-

ment. Councillors consid-
ered request on Nov. 16.

Under Koch's plan, the
funds would be transferred
from a $672,000 set-aside
for payments to Honeywell
for maintenance in the 2010
budget.

Honeywell's lawyers
claim the city can't contract
the maintenance out without
jeopardizing the contract's
energy savings guarantees.

At Monday's Finance
Committee meeting. Ward
5 Councillor Douglas Gutro
asked for an update on the
energy savings data which
would support or negate

Honeywell's energy savings
promises.

"We do not have the veri-
fication," said Jim Fatseas.
Koch'sChief of Staff. "The
monitoring equipment still
has not been installed (by
Honeywell) The data col-

lection device isn't com-
plete."

Gutro asked that the ad-
ministration collect monthly
energy and water bills for
a review school-by-school
and building-by-building
throughout the city.

Irregularities

On Monday, councillors
also reviewed irregularities
by city officials in the first
interest payment to Honev-
well in 2(K)7

THE HISTORY CHANNE

• On Dec. 10, 1901, the

first Nobel Prizes are award-
ed in Stockholm, Sweden,
on the fifth anniversary of
the death of Alfred Nobel,
the Swedish inventor of
dynamite and other high
explosives. Although No-
bel offered no reason for
his creation of the prizes,
it is believed he did so out
of moral regret over the in-
creasingly lethal uses of his
inventions in war.

• On Dec. 12, 1917, in

Omaha, Neb., Father Ed-
ward J . Flanagan, a 3 1 -year-
old Irish priest, opens the
doors to a home for troubled
and neglected children. To-
day "Boys and Girls Town"
includes a grade school, a
high school and a career vo-
cational center on a farm 10
miles west of Omaha.

• On Dec. 7, 1925, fu

ture Tarzan actor Johnny
WeissmuUer sets the world
record for the 150-yard
freestyle swim. Already a
gold medalist from the 1924
Olympics, WeissmuUer
competed again in 1928,
taking five gold medals
in all. In 1931, MOM cast
WeissmuUer to play the ti-
tle role in "Tarzan the Ape
Man."

• On Dec. 11, 1946, in

the aftermath of World War
II, the United Nations votes
to establish the United Na-

tions International Chil-
dren's Emergency Fund
(UNICEF), an organization
to help provide relief and
support to children living in
countries devastated by the
war.

• On Dec. 13, 1950,

an unknown actor named
James Dean appears in a
Pepsi commercial . Dean
would later personify the
angry, restless youth culture
in the film "Rebel Without a
Cause" (1955). He died in a
car crash in 1955 at age 24.

• On Dec. 8, 1987, at a

summit meeting in Washing-
ton, D.C., President Ronald
Reagan and Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev sign the
first treaty between the two
superpowers to reduce their
massive nuclear arsenals.
Previous agreements had
merely been attempts by the
two Cold War adversaries
to limit the growth of their
nuclear arsenals.

• On Dec. 9, 1992, Brit-
ish Prime Minister John
Major announces the for-
mal separaUon of Charles,
Prince of Wales and heir to
the British throne, and his
wife, Princess Diana. The
report came after several
years of speculation by the
tabloid press that the mar-
riage was in peril .

It still Bothers Me - And Always Will

Editor's Note.* The following Sunbeams column written
by Henry Bosworth was a favorite o/Quincy Sun readers. It
last appeared Nov. 26, 2008 -four days after the 45th anni-
versary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The intrusion of two "party crashers" - Tareq and Mi-
chaele Salahi - at President Obama 's State Dinner at the
White House Nov. 24 has placed the Secret Service under
renewed scrutiny. We think it is fitting to reprint this col-
umn since Henry was a "party crasher" in Presidential his-
tory and was always troubled by the apparent lack of Secret
Service protection the night JFK was elected President 49
years ago and perhaps on that tragic day in Dallas, Nov.
22, 1963.

It still bothers me and I guess it always will.
It's been 48 years now and I can't stop wondering
about President John F. Kennedy and the Secret Service.

Was the Secret Service really doing its job the night of
Nov. 10, 1960 in Hyannisport? And, in Dallas, Nov. 22,
1963?

The 45* anniversary of Kennedy's assassination Sat-
urday brought me back to that night three years before in
Hyannisport - and still wondering if the Secret service was
lax in its duty to protect him.

I was standing in the living room of former Ambassador
Joseph Kennedy's home in the Kennedy compound waiting
for the President-elect to appear.

Where was the Secret Service, I wondered? I wasn't even
supposed to be there but no one questioned that.

Word was that 18 Secret Service agents had moved in
swiftly to protect the next President of the United States af-
ter Richard Nixon conceded after a night of see-saw election
results.

But if they were around the house-inside or outside-they
were invisible. They weren't checking on me or anyone
else. 1 could have had a gun in my pocket.

I've written this story before. And I think it's worth an-
other look on this 45"' anniversary of JFK's assassination.

Let's go back to Nov. 10, 1960.

I was a Boston Traveler reporter covering the election at
press headquarters in the National Guard armory in Hyan-
nis. With me were Dave Farrell of the Boston Herald and
photographer Frank Kelly of Quincy, taking photos for both
papers.

We were at the armory all election night checking the
returns until Nixon finally conceded in the early morning.

We were informed that Kennedy would hold a press
conference later in the morning at the armory, his first as
President-elect.

Out of that conference came such headlines as:

"Hoover, Dulles To Stay," "Kennedy Says Election Re-
pudiates No One"... "Ike Asks JFK Meet Him Soon On
Takeover."

The whole Keimedy clan seemed to be there; Jacqueline,
3 1 , radiant and expecting John John in a few weeks; parents
Joseph and Rose Kennedy; brothers Bobby with wife, Ethel ,
Ted, sisters Eunice Shriver, Jean Smith, Pat Lawford and in
the background brother in-law Peter Lawford.

Kennedy made a brief victory statement that was a hint
of the theme of his coming Inaugural Address:

"The election may have been a close one. But I think
there is general agreement by all of our citizens that the su-
preme national effort will be needed in the years ahead to
move this country safely through the 1960's."

(Inaugural version: "Ask not what your country can do
for you. Ask what you can do for your country.")

Word was passed that Kennedy would host an informal ,
off-the record party for the press in his father's home that
night. It was for the press that had traveled with him through
the campaign.

But three party-crashers - Farrell , Kelly and myself - got
there, too. It was too good to miss and we weren't going to
miss it.

The bus to take the press into the Kennedy compound
was parked outside near the armory. We stepped aboard. No
one asked to see our press credentials. We rode inside the
compound and walked into Joseph Kennedy's house. No
one checked on us.

Maybe, as I look back, anyone could have gotten on that
bus that night. Maybe even someone like Lee Harvey Os-
wald.

None of the Kennedy's were in sight when we arrived so
the invited members of the press and the three party crashers
started browsing around.

On the living room wall were framed letters written by
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to Ambassador Ken-
nedy.

On the fireplace mantle was a model of the USS Joseph

PRESIDENT-ELECT John F. Kennedy and former Quincy
Sun Publisher Henry Bosworth chat at Barnstable Airport in
Hyannis, Nov. 11, 1960. Kennedy was leaving for Palm Springs,
FL after his election. Behind them are aides Kenneth O'Donnell
and Pierre Salinger. Frank Kelly photo

P. Kennedy, Jr., the destroyer named after the oldest son
who was lost on a dangerous World War II mission. He had
plans for a political career.

The living room connected with the dining room. On the
dining room table was a punch bowl and cups. Someone
said to help ourselves. So we did and wandered back into
the living room.

I was returning my cup and was the only one in the din-
ing room when a screen door swung open and in stepped
John F. Kennedy.

He walked over to me and we shook hands. "Congratula-
tions Mr. President," I said. It wasn't correct protocol. He
was still a Senator and President-elect. But he seemed to
like being called "Mr. President" and smiled.

We were alone for a few moments. The other reporters
then spotted him and we were soon surrounded.

Kennedy looked tired from the strain of the campaign
and those final agonizing hours when the election seemed
like it could go either way.

One reporter asked him what he thought made the final
difference.

"He (Nixon) stayed around too long in the South," Ken-
nedy replied. (Stayed wasn't the exact word he used.)

Soon, other members of the family joined us: Jacqueline,
Rose, Bobby, Ted, sisters Eunice, Jean and Pat and brother
in-law Sargent Shriver.

Kennedy said he was flying to Palm Springs, FL the next
day to relax and "maybe play a little golf."

"But don't mention golf," he laughed.

He didn't want the country to think it was getting another
golfer like Dwight Eisenhower for President.

I got to chatting with Rose Kennedy who wanted to
know about Quincy-bom Presidents John and John Quincy
Adams. I told her as much as 1 knew and said 1 would ask
Quincy Historian Bill Edwards to send her more informa-
tion. (And he did.)

Someone produced gift-wrapped bottles of liquor from a
cabinet in the kitchen.

And then a sight you couldn't forget: the next President of
the United States pouring drinks for members of the press.

It was a night to fondly remember - and cherish.

The next day, the Kennedy family flew out of Bamsta-
ble Airport aboard the family plane "Caroline," named for
daughter,* Caroline, who looked like a young, Shirley Tem-
ple back then.

I got one more chance to talk with Kennedy before the
plane took off.

"Good luck, Mr. President," I said to him.

"Thank you," he replied, breaking into a grin at being
called "Mr. President" for the second time.

I later told Farrell and Kelly that someday I would write
the story about how we crashed the Kennedy compound and
the party. But not until Kennedy was out of office. Which
I figured would be eight years because he surely would be
re-elected to a second term.

I remember also telling them:

"I'm going to write how we got by the Secret service
that night."

And, kiddingly added:

"And I'm going to write about how I could have shot the
President of the United States over the punch bowl in the
dining room of his father's house."

But who could have imagined then the tragedy that wait-
ed in Dallas?

I just can't help wondering about the Secret Service that
night in Hyannisport. And that day in Dallas.

It has bothered me all these years.

And, I guess, it always will.

Scenes From Yesterday

NORTH JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL. ATLANTIC. MASS.

THIS 1926 postcard is a view of North Junior High in
Atlantic just before it opened. Quincy had adopted the
Junior High program in the early 1920s and had to
build four junior high schools and a new High School
to accommodate its fast growing student population.
Previously the grammar schools were grades 1 to 8 and
the one high school was 9 to 12. This junior high school
^as grades 7 to 9 and began adding one high school

grade each year in the early 1930s, with six grades
here, two wings had been added to the building. In
1959, the seventh and eighth grades were moved to the
new Atlantic Middle School leaving grades 9-12 here
at North Quincy High School. To contact Tom Galvin,

Hanlin International Academy Responds To City Officials

The Founding Group
has been extraordinarily
respectful to the city, its of-
ficials, the law, and the pro-
tocols and values of justice.
Unfortunately, that has not
always been reciprocated.

According to the Nov. 19
edition of The Quincy Sun,
the Quincy City Council
voted unanimously against
all future charter schools
for the City of Quincy and
to formally oppose the pro-
posed Hanlin International
Academy. The resolution
and the vote against a con-
structive educational ini-
tiative for the families of
Quincy was self-righteously
prejudiced.

The Final Application
was submitted to the De-
partment of Elementary and
Secondary Education and
the Superintendent on Nov.
13, the due date of submis-
sion. Therefore, none of the
city officials read the Final
Application before mak-
ing the vote. In addition,
no member of the Found-
ing Group was officially
invited to speak on behalf
of the school or future char-
ter schools before the City
Council during this process.

Even more disheartening,
the Founding Group made a
concerted effort to outreach
to these officials. Four
days earlier on Nov. 5, the
Founding Group even invit-
ed Mr. Jay Davis through an
email to be a member of the
Board of Trustees of which
he declined silently by not
responding to the emailed
solicitation.

Quincy needs

Quincy 8** graders is not

proficient on the Math and
Science MCAS, there is a
need for a charter school.

are not even closely met,

and selfish identity philoso-
phy of the far left. Nor does
the school claim that one
culture is wholly superior to
another, rejecting the mono-
lithic nature of the philoso-

The school does reflect
the educational philosophy
of the Founding Fathers, in

No Loss of Money
for Public Schools

Charter Schools are pub-
lic schools. When a parent
or legal guardian decides
to send their child to our
school .the tuition that would
be spent on educatmg their
child would transfer over to
our school from the sending
district. The district is then
reimbursed by the state:
100% the first year; 60% the
second; and 40% the third.
For every dollar that is trans-
ferred to the charter school ,
district receives $2.00 back
from the state over a three-
year penod.

school at www.haniininter-

Dec. 9, an information ses-

Among Six Community Hospitals That Maintain Unfunded
Mandates Have Resulted In Signficant Financial Losses

QMC Suing State Over Unreimbursed
Payment For Healthcare Services

QHS Student Xiaojun Chen
Named National Finalist

Six community hospitals
- including Qiiincy Medi-
cal Center - are suing the
Commonwealth for millions
of dollars in unreimbursed
payment for healthcare ser-
vices delivered to residents
m communities that stretch
from Cape Cod to the Berk-
shires.

The hospitals are known
as "disproportionate share
hospitals" (DSH) because
at least f>?>7( of their patients
are covered by public insur-
ance. While healthcare re-
form has brought the state
closer to universal coverage,
the unintended consequence
of that success is many DSH
hospitals are experiencing
significant shortfalls in pay-
ments as they treat addi-
tit)nal patients whose public
insurance doesn't cover the
full cost of care.

"Our mission is to pro-
vide health care for all our
community, regardless of
their ability to pay or what-
ever special needs they may
have," said Dr. Gary W. Gib-
bons, president of Quincy
Medical Center.

"Providing access is the
right thing to do, but com-
munity hospitals like QMC
must be reimbursed fairly
and that's what we're ask-
ing for - fair reimbursement
for the vital services we pro-
vide," Gibbons added.

According to hospital
officials, QMC's three-year
Medicaid shortfall and ad-
ministration budget cuts to-
tal $3.5 million.

Besides Quincy Medical
Center, the other plaintiffs
in the lawsuit are Berkshire
Medical Center in Pittsfield,
Signature Healthcare Brock-
ton Hospital in Brockton,
Cape Cod Hospital in Hyan-
nis, Holyoke Medical Center
in Holyoke, and Merrimack
Valley Hospital in Haverhill

The lawsuit was filed
Tuesday.

The hospitals claim that
the state has violated a law
requiring financial reim-
bursement equal to the costs
of providing care to Med-
icaid recipients. The hos-
pitals say that the state has
set Medicare, Medicaid and
other reimbursement rates
so low that many of them
are facing severe financial
distress as they fulfill their
state mandate to care for
more and more individuals
covered by public insur-
ance.

"The community hospi-
tals involved in this lawsuit
are unfairly bearing the cost
of healthcare reform. The
under funding at Merrimack
Valley Hospital in Haverhill
and at the other hospitals
is a significant detriment
to serving our patients and
community. All dispro-
portionate share hospitals
deserve fair and equitable

DR. GARY GIBBONS

treatment with respect to
healthcare reimbursement,"
said Michael Collins, chief
executive officer of .Merri-
mack Valley Hospital.

According to the suit, cu-
mulative state cuts to Med-
icaid (the state's MassHealth
program), and an additional
capping of hospital pa)-
ments last December, have
left the hospitals with a
combined funding shortfall
in excess of S70 million in
just the past three years. On
average, the state's .Medic-
aid program has paid only
between 407( and 867r of
the costs of providing care
to the elderly, low income,
and uninsured populations it
is supposed to cover.

"The Commonwealth
made a commitment to pro-
vide access to health care for
all citizens but we cannot do
that at the expense of these
vital community hospitals,"
said State Senator Michael
Morrissey. "We all know
that resources are tight but
there has to be a way to pro-
tect these safety net hospi-
tals that are so critical to our
communities, especially if
we can find a way to lever-
age federal dollars."

While the state has been
focused on finding a soluUon
to address a similar lawsuit
brought by Boston Medical

Center, the community DSH
hospitals handle nearly four
times as many patients cov-
ered by government insur-
ance, as measured in patient
days, than Boston Medi-
cal Center and Cambridge
Health Alliance combined.
The hospitals provide care
for more than 1 5 million pa-
tients and handle more than
3(X),0{X) and emergency care

visits annuall). Some of the
hospitals are the onl\ hospi
tal within 2.^ miles in their
communities.

The hospitals maintain
that the unfunded mandates
have resulted in significant
hnancial losses as well as
prevented or delayed in-
vestment in capital projects,
equipment, and other updat-
ed healthcare resources for
their communities

4- Year Mayoral Terms Draw More Support Than Opposition

Cant 'd From Page I

Once the first year is
over, the mayor must begin
campaigning again, accord-
ing to Gillis who described
his work in Weymouth dur-
ing its transition from town
to city.

"1 made certain the
Weymouth mayor had four
years," said Gillis. adding
that the Weymouth term
length has been successful.

"Going to four years is
only going to dig the lif-
ers in deeper," countered
former mayoral candidate

O'Malley, adding there are
too many lifetime politi-
cians.

O'Malley also said it is
essential that campaign fi-
nance reform be undertaken
immediately in order to open
the process

"Every time you run for
office, it takes a lot of mon-
ey," said Steve DesRoche
who believes the thousands
in costs every year would be
a "nice little savings for the
city."

"This race every two
years is too much," said

West Quincy 's Al Bina who
took an unofficial poll of his
family before the meeting.
He found a unanimous eight
votes in favor of the four-
year term.

Bina described the wast-
ed sign holding and flier
drops that drain energy from
candidates and office-hold-
ers. "We've got to give these
councillors and the mayor a
real good shot."

"You can not change
one without the other," said
Zamzow who wants the
council terms changed to
four years with staggered
elections, more public input
at City Council, and im-
proved transparency in city

government.

Zamzow noted the set-
side at School Committee
meetings for CitizenSpeak
and said it works well.

As an example, Zamzow,
a financial analyst and con-
sultant, described his efforts
to verify the exact increase
in the firefighters' jast con-
tract, an issue in the last
election.

Through Freedom of In-
formation requests and his
own analysis, Zamzow add-
ed the raises and increased
benefits, such as educational
options, and determined the
increase was 23%.

None of the councillors
spoke during the public

hearing which drew 16 per-
sons to council chambers.

Following the speakers,
seven other residents signed
in favor of the change and
one signed in opposition.

After the meeting, City
Council President Jay Davis
who proposed the mayor's
term change said he's re-
ceived many calls on the
issue with 80% favoring the
change and 20% in opposi-
tion.

Davis said he hopes to
convince five of his fellow
councillors to vote for the
change. If that does not suc-
ceed, he said he knows at
least a dozen residents ea-
ger to collect the signatures
need to put the issue on the

ballot.

The latest official count
of registered voters is
55,847. Five percent or
2,792 signatures are needed
for a citizens' petition.

At the Finance Commit-
tee meeting that followed,
councillors spent several
hours trying to unravel the
irregular finance maneuvers
involved in the Honeywell
energy contract.

"This situation would
not have been uncovered if
we didn't have the two-year
term," said Ward 2 Council-
lor Daniel Raymondi, who
warned that none of the
Honeywell problems would
have become known with-
out a change in mayors.

Street Works Forms Alliance With Suffolk Construction

new larger-format retailer
tenants to complement the
smaller street-level retailers
that drive the sense of vital-
ity and place.

The design will be laced
together with a network of
wide sidewalks for outdoor
dining and browsing, and a
series of green spaces and
public areas that will honor
Quincy 's history, enhance
the center's walkabiiity. and
heighten its appeal to visi-
tors and residents alike.

According to an eco-

nomic analysis by the New
York-based firm AKRF, the
project will boost the city's
property tax revenues by
$ 10 million per year and will
generate 4^22 construction
jobs in Quincy and 7,240
total direct and indirect con-
struction jobs in the state.

The project would create
4,560 permanent jobs, the
study found.

In addition to announc-
ing the Suffolk alliance.
Narva congratulated Quincy
Mayor Thomas Koch on his
Nov. 3 re-election to a sec-

ond two-year term.

"Mayor Koch has been an
outstanding, untiring cham-
pion for New Quincy Cen-
ter. His re-election was not
only a victory for his cam-

paign, but for New Quincy
Center itself," Narva said.

M(Q)IM F€)E YCDHJ HIEl.
Quincy's Best Kept
Presidential Secret

iitihiom:

It is a secret that has little to do with any ref-
erence to history but rather with a connection to
tourism and business. For a visitor to the City of
Quincy who is a history buff or beachcomber, this
motor lodge is but a short walk away from both of
those interests. The Presidents City Inn, for many
years has been tucked into a residential commu-
nity on Hancock Street in the Wollaston section of
Quincy; passed by often, virtually unnoticed, by
locals and commuters alike.

Though this motor lodge is on a much more
modest scale than the larger area hotels, the man-
agement offers many of the same type ameni-
ties. Complimentary continental breakfast, free
cable TV and wireless internet, with some Jacuzzi

rooms available and lots of parking on site to name
a few.

Perhaps the best reason most visitors choose
this location is the proximity to Boston, by cab
or via the MBTA. For extended stays the rooms
are equipped with microwaves and refrigeratt)rs
as well. The small, less commercial setting is a
very attractive alternative for most guests to the
more urban locations in the Boston area. The fact
that it is less than 10 miles away from Boston's
downtown Fanueil Hall and that city's waterfront
aquarium makes it a winner for tourists. Presidents
City Inn is located at 845 Hancock St.. telephone
617-479-6500.

City Considering Litigation Over Honeywell Contract

Cont 'd From Page 3

e-mails and documents pre-
sented to the committee, the
first payment of $694,637.44
was wired to Honeywell in
November of 2007 without
being either budgeted or ap-
proved as an appropriation
by the council.

Originally. Rick Fitz-
patrick, auditor at the time,
raised questions about the
payment while others ques-
tioned the source of the
funds which, eventually,
was transferred from Free
Cash. According to testi-
mony, the fund transfer was
not recorded until May of
2(X)8.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi asked for the
investigation and referred

to an auditor's report which
labeled the transaction as
fraud.

Raymondi said a full
report of the committee's
findings was necessary. In
addition, councillors believe
last year's reorganization of
the city's financial structure
should help avoid such is-
sues in the future.

While the Finance Com-
mittee focused on internal
municipal problems related
to the Honeywell account
this week, a detailed review
of the project is planned.

Chairman John Keenan
said the committee would
begin a review of specific
Honeywell issues and con-
sider Koch's request for the
$2(X),(X)() transfer on Dec.

9.

$200,000 Transfer

The transfer request was
originally considered on
Nov. 16.

After the meeting, Nixon
Peabody's attorney Vici-
nanzo challenged comments
attributed to City Solicitor
James Timmins regarding
the contract .

At the Nov. 16 meeting,
Timmins, school and city
building officials spoke in
support of Koch's request
for the $200 .(KX) transfer to
the Public Buildings -Con-
tractual maintenance ac-
count.

Speakers said the transfer
would remedy some of the
alleged failures of equip-
ment installed under the

Honeywell energy savings
contract and protect students
from cold classrooms.

In the appropriation re-
quest to City Council, Koch
asked that the funds be
transferred from this year's
$672,000 budget set-aside
for payment to Honeywell
for maintenance.

The $672,000 was desig-
nated as the first installment
in maintenance payments
due Honeywell. The pay-
ments would guarantee the
city's $47 million invest-
ment in energy savings.

"We're not paying it to
Honeywell," Timmins told
the City Council while ex-
plaining the request for the
transfer.

Timmins said the mainte-
nance account "can be used
to maintain" the equipment
by the city.

After discussing the is-
sues, councillors referred
the request to the Finance
Committee which will dis-
cuss the issue on Dec. 9.

With Timmins at the
council meeting were Kevin
Murphy, Director of Plant
Facilities for the schools,
and Building Inspector
Thomas Peccaro.

Murphy and Peccaro
outlined major problems
with boilers, insulation and
ventilation systems installed

through Honeywell after
Timmins presented Koch's
request.

They, also, said some
equipment was not installed
properly and Honeywell
did not respond to calls for
help.

The speakers described
city maintenance personnel
manually operating utilities
that they said were touted
and installed by Honeywell
as high tech items designed
for keyboard adjustment.

"We're running into a
problem," Timmins said,
citing the imminent cold
weather and outlining the
need for urgent repairs that
city officials claim Hon-
eywell has ignored. "The
heating season is upon
us and this appropriation

makes sense," said Ward 1
Councillor Leo Kelly.

Councillors referred the
appropriation to the Finance
Committee after Murphy
and Peccaro assured them
the city's maintenance ac-
count funds are currently
sufficient to cover Decem-
ber payouts.

On Nov. 16 and this
week. Ward 5 Councillor
Doug Gutro asked whether
the city would use Honey-
well approved contractors in
repairing and adjusting the
equipment in order to hold
Honeywell to its guaranteed
savings.

"Does this jeopardize the
performance guarantees?'
asked Gutro.

The committee will con-
tinue its review on Dec. 9.

Water Main Replacement
Underway on Willow Ave.

The Water Main Replace-
ment Project for Willow
Avenue began this week,
according to Ward 5 Coun-
cillor Douglas Gutro.

Residents can expect
construction crews working
in the area from 7 a.m. to
4:30 p.m. for the next 30-45
days.

The contractor will no-
tify residents 24 hours in ad-
vance of all water shut-offs.

A city engineer will be

on site to oversee the project
and answer any questions.

Any resident interested
in converting to natural gas
is must make arrangements
as soon as possible as once
the road is resurfaced, a
five-year moratorium on is-
suing street opening permits
will take effect.

The road will be tempo-
rarily resurfaced and perma-
nently resurfaced in 2010.

• Stephen G. Pagliuca.
age 54, of Weston, is co-
owner of the Boston Celt-
ics and managing partner of
Bain Capital, a private eq-
uity investment firm.

Running in the Republi-
can Primary are:

• Scott P. Brown, age 50,
of Wrentham, is a state sen-
ator representing the Mid-
dlesex, Norfolk and Bristol
District since 20()4. He is
also a practicing attorney.

• Jack E. Robinson, age
49, of Duxbury, is a former
executive for Eastern Air-
lines and also founded his
own cell phone company.
He ran unsuccessfully as a
Republican for Kennedy's
Senate seat in 2000, for Sec-
retary of State in Massachu-
setts against William Galvin
in 2002 and also lost to in-
cumbent U.S. Rep. Stephen
Lynch for Congress in the
9"^ District in 2006.

Quincy officials are
hopeful the state will reim-
burse the city for election-
associated expenses since
Quincy 's election budget for
the current fiscal year is de-
pleted. Shea said the special
primary next Tuesday and
the special final election Jan.
19 will cost $70,000 each.

The city has been spared
from the $12,000 cost to
print ballots since the state
is picking up that tab.

"We had budgeted
enough money for two mu-
nicipal elections and the
school committee recount
(which cost about $7,500)
used up the rest," Shea said,
adding the state has request-
ed the city submit a detailed
list of expenses as the first
step toward reimbursement.
How much of the cost will
get covered by state dollars
is still a question mark.

Shea predicted about
11,169 voters in Quincy -
approximately 20 percent of
the 55.847 registered - will
go to the polls next fues-
day.

[he most recent registra-
tion numbers show there are
more unenrolled voters than
any other group in the city.
The breakdown: 25,254
unenrolled; 24,727 Demo-
crats: 5JS63 Republicans;
and 162 Libertarians. The
other groups have less than
75 each.

Polls will be open at the
city's 30 polling precincts
from 7 a.m. until 8 p.m.
next Tuesday. Shea said he
expects Quincy 's vote to be
tallied by 9:30 p.m.

Avery Glennon Christmas Party To Benefit The Jimmy Fund Dec. 11

The first Avery Glennon
Christmas Party to Ben-
efit the Jimmy Fund will be
held Friday, Dec. 1 1 from 7
p.m. to midnight at the Sons
of Italy, 120 Quarry St.,
Quincy.

Tickets are $25 and all
proceeds will directly ben-
efit the Pediatric Patient As-
sistance Fund at The Jimmy
Fund/Dana- Farber Cancer
Institute.

The fundraiser is being
organized by Sean and Jo-
Anne (Hidalgo) Glennon in
honor of their six-year old
daughter, Avery. Shortly be-
fore her first birthday, Avery
was diagnosed with optic
glioma, a cancerous tumor
that is growing around the
optic nerve in her brain.
Avery endured 13 months
of chemotherapy, which has
successfully shrunk the tu-
mor by 30 percent.

Throughout this ordeal.
The Jimmy Fund/Dana-
Farber Cancer Institute has
been extremely supportive
of The Glennon Family.

"The team of doctors at
the brain tumor clinic and
the entire staff are amazing.
They have always made us
feel as though Avery was
their number one priority
and they have helped make
what would normally be an
unbearable situation a lot
less stressful," Sean Glen-
non said.

Because they have ex-
perienced firsthand what
it's like to have a daughter
with cancer, the Glennons
wanted to do something to
"pay it forward" for other

After speaking with Dana
Kelly, Development Officer
for Special Events for The
Jimmy Fund, Glennon real-
ized that a Christmas Party
Fundraiser that supported
the Pediatric Patient As-
sistance Fund would be the

ideal way that they could
help others who need it
most.

The Pediatric Patient
Assistance Fund supports
families of children being
treated at the Dana-Farber/
Children's Hospital Cancer
Care program. This support
includes grocery gifts cards.

pharmacy gift cards, prepaid
telephone cards, prepaid gas
cards, gift certificates to the
local hospital food court,
and gift cards to help strug-
gling families during the
holidays.

"The response so far has
been outstanding. Business-
es have been donating items

for the silent auction- draw
ings and individuals have
been buying tickets in ad
vance," Sean Glennon said

"It seems like people are
looking for ways to help oth-
ers during these tough times
and Its been great to see
how generous people can
be even with the economy
being the way it is," Sean

added"

Share The Pier Plan
Wins Wide Support

Cont 'd From Page 3

outlining the potential for
increasing the city's public
access for kayaks and ca-
noes to visit nearby harbor
islands. "Thayer is footing
the bill."

But there's still a lot of
red tape and permits needed
before the project material-
izes.

Park Commissioners
approved the contract last
spring and the Conserva-
tion Commission plan a site
visit before issuing an Order
of Conditions. The project
was on the commission's
Wednesday agenda.

"It's before the Conser-
vation Commission," said
Bob Daylor, vice president
of Tetra Tech Rizzo, the firm
developing the plans for the
Park Department .

Daylor outlined numer-
ous other permits and ap-
provals needed for the proj-
ect.

A former Houghs Neck
resident, Daylor is as en-
thusiastic about the project
as any of the city's officials
and recalled his delight in
taking out his ocean shell, "I
spent many a morning row-
ing down Houghs Neck."

"It's a great place for nov-
ice high school kids learning
to row," said Daylor of the
protected Town River site.

Daylor believes that af-
ter "a few years of dedicat-
ed work, you could have a
Quincy and North Quincy
(competition)."

Under the terms of the
agreement, Thayer Acade-
my will build the pier; create
parking, a boat enclosure,
and walking access through
and around the site, as well
as ongoing maintenance.

Currently, the area lo-
cated off Southern Artery is
a magnet for homeless and
used as a dumping ground.
Its boardwalk is in hazard-
ous condition.

The agreement also spec-
ifies that Thayer, will clear
the land, clear the lot and
shall have priority for use of
the parcel during the fall and
spring high school season.

However, Thayer's ac-
cess to the site located be-
hind the on Southern Artery
will not be exclusive under
the agreement.

"They're really just in-
terested in getting to the wa-
ter," Welch said of Thayer's

crew team. He noted later,
"Thayer doesn't want the
land; they want the ocean."

"They're building the
pier," Welch said. "Every-
one will benefit. There's no
exclusive use of the pier."

Welch is not alone in
viewing the Thayer partner-
ship as a win-win proposal.

"I think it's something
that's long overdue," Ward
1 Councillor Leo Kelly said
this week, suggesting the
project will "start perking
that whole area up."

The park area is in Kel-
ly's ward but borders that of
Daniel Raymondi in Ward 2
who said, "It's a great con-
cept."

Across the city line,
there's similar enthusiasm
at Thayer Academy.

"In the end everyone will
benefit," said Ted Koskores,
Headmaster at Thayer, in an
official statement.

"The residents of Quincy
will have a new recreational
waterfront facility that can
provide opportunities for
various water activities and
Thayer Academy will have
a new home for its growing
crew program."

EXPECTING FOOT PAIN

Pregnancy can trigger foot hard-working feet to a spedal-

pain. Natural weight gain and
the alteration of a woman's
center of gravity created added
pressure on the knees and feet.
The result may be pain at the
arch, the heel, or the ball of the
foot. For someone who is expe-
riencing these pregnancy-relat-
ed foot issues, there are numer-
ous steps that can be taken to
alleviate the discomfort. Elevat-
ing the feet as often as possible,
wearing seamless socks that do
not constrict circulation, and tak-
ing regular breaks to stretch the
legs are recommended. Exer-
cising regulariy, drinking plenty
of water, and eating a diet tow in
sodium help prevent fluid reten-
tton. If ttie swelling is not similar
in both feet, a podiatrist should
be consulted immediately.

Just as you put your prenatal
care in the hands of a special-
ist, so should you entrust your

ist - a highly trained, specially
skilled podiatrist. It's tome to
pay attention to what your feet
are trying to tell you when each
step is more painful than the
one before. Dont ignae foot
problems, whether caused by
pregnancy, injuries, diseases,
or inherited conditions. Call us
instead at 781-986-3668. Our
state-of-the-art footcare facility
is tocated at QUINCY MEDI-
CAL CENTER. Offtoe hours

fits property during pregnancy.
Since feet will probably change
size during pregnancy, have
them measured.

A Job Well Done

i;r. DAN MIN ION

On Tuesday, Nov. 24. 2(K)9. at approximately
10: 15 p.m.. Officer David Zupkotska was at the sta-
tion's gas pumps when he observed a white Dodge
Magnum heading east on Sea Street at a speed of
65-75 m.p.h. He got into
his cruiser, attempting to
locate the vehicle as he in
formed dispatch.

At this time. Officer
Matt Patten was driving
west in the area of 6(K)
Sea Street when the sus-
pect vehicle passed him at
a high rate of speed head
ing into Ht)ugh"s Neck.
Officer Patten attempted
to locate the vehicle but

it was no longer in sight. Moments later, dispatch
received numerous calls of a car into a tree near 98
Darrow St. Callers stated that the two occupants
ran from the vehicle and that the driver was head-
ed down Darrow Street. Officers William O'Neill
and Matt Tobin, Sergeants Mark Foley and Dan
Flaherty. Detective Jim Lencki and Trooper Brian
Dunn all responded to the scene.

Dispatch updated the Officers with information
that one suspect just cri)ssed Macy Street to Edge-
water Drive. Two witnesses stated that the suspect
went into the ocean. Using their flashlights, the Of-
ficers spotted the suspect waist deep in water about
50 yards out They called out to the suspect to come
in, but instead, he went out further. Fearing that
the suspect might dnnvn or succumb to the 45 de
gree temperature and cold water. Sergeant l^laherty
and Officer Zupkofska removed their gun bells and
waded into the water.

The suspect was difficult to locate due to the
darkness. He was over his head and going under
the water. The suspect moved out about 25 yards
deeper. The officers continued out and caught up
to him. The suspect was cold and tired and could
not stand. The Officers dragged the suspect to the
shore, where an awaiting ambulance transported
him to the hospital. The officers did note a strong
odor of alcohol coming from the suspect. The sus-
pect provided his name, which was the same as the
owner of the crashed vehicle.

While assessing the accident scene, a woman
approached the Officers and stated that her son
was a passenger in the car and that the suspect was
about to drop him off prior to the accident. She
added that she lives on Sea Street and was actu-
ally standing on her front stairs when she saw the
suspect vehicle "go flying by." She made several
attempts to call her son's cell phone but no one an-
swered. She saw the police cars and came down to
the scene. She said that her son was 24 years-old
and was concerned about him. The officers said
that the son was not wanted for any crime and that
they would continue the search for him. A review
of the accident scene showed that the suspect was
traveling at a high rate of speed when it hit a parked
car on Darrow Street, knocking the driver side rear
tire from the vehicle approximately 25 feet down
the street. There were also marks on the pavement
that were made by the rim of the suspect vehicle.
By following these marks, it showed the path of
the suspect vehicle down T)arrow Street to Rock Is-
land Road, where the suspect vehicle left the road-
way, striking a telephone pole, splitting it in two.

The vehicle crossed the lawn and then back onto
the road, where it came to a stop in front of 1 28 Dar-
row St. Both airbags deployed. The suspect, a40 year
old Fitchburg resident, has a very extensive driver
history and criminal record, is currently on proba-
tion for drunk driving and charged with Ol'l 4th
Offense, Operating to Endanger a Motor Vehicle.
Leaving the scene after property damage. Speed-
ing. Operating After Revoked Registration. Oper
ating an Uninsured MV, Operating After Revoked
License, Operating a Motor Vehicle w/ Expired In-
spection Sticker and Resisting Arrest (running from
scene, swimming away).

Woodpile Tips

e a bit I

Mv housemates
>and I are hav-
ing a bit of an argument.
We purchased a cord of
firewood for use this win-
ter in the fireplace. They
want to store the wood on
the side of the house, near
the back door, so it can be
accessed quickly. 1 think
this will bring bugs and
other pests into the house.
What's your take? -Jim in
Boulder, Colo.

A ^ You" re right that
• pi Hug the wood at
the side ot the house isn't a
good idea, as outdoor wood
piles tend to attract hugs
and rodents. Poorly stacked
wood also retains nn)isture
from rain and snt>w and can
mold and rot. And the stack
could damage the house's
siding, either from impact
with the siding or from
mold.

However, you don't have
to store the wood too far
away from the liouse. either,
as long as it is stored cor-
lecth. Here are a tew tips on
proper!) storing firewood:

• Store tirewDod about
410 feet from the house,
not mside or against the sid-
ing.

• Split Hrewood logs to
relatively the same size pri-
or tt) stacking.

• Keep the stack off the
ground by placing across
two parallel wood or metal
rails

• Shelter the pile from
rain and snow if possible.

• Don't stack higher than
4 feet.

• Cross-stack firewood
(one row facing one direc-
tion, the ne.xt row facing an-
other direction) to promote
airflow through the wiH)d-
pile, which reduces moisture
and pest infestation.

• Shovel snow from
around the stack and brush
off the logs after each
storm.

• Bring in only as much
firewood as you need for
each tire.

• Store firewood brought
indoors in a hre-resistant
container.

• If the firev\()od outside
IS too damp to burn proper-
ly, bring a small amount into
a dr\ area of the ht)use sepa-
rate from \()ur living area
(such as the garage) and al-
low to dry tor a week prior
to burning.

• lake w ood from the top
of the stack, and restack the
wood periodicall).

HOME TIP: lo carry
firewDod. wear sturd\ work
gloves and long slce\es.
Don't (i\erload - carry onl\
what \ou can comfortabls
rest on both arms while
negotiating slippery walk-
vva)s.

Legislation Extends Home Buyer
Tax Credit Through April 30, 2010

The Massachusetts As-
sociation of Bu\er Agents
(MABA) announces it is
"relieved" that the Home
Buyer lax Credit legisla-
tion, which pnnides a max-
imum SS. ()()() tax credit to
first time home buyers, has
been signed and the dead-
line extended through April
30,2010.

Now, first time home
buyers who are in the pn>-
cess of purchasing a home
don't have the Nov. 30,
2(K)*-) deadline hanging over
them It \m11 also enable
e\en more first time buyers
to take advantage of the pro-
gram over the next several
months.

Due to a pnnision in the
American Recover) and
Reinvestment Act of 20W.
taxpayers who ha\e not ow -
ned a primary residence m
at least three years time are
considered "first time home
buvers" and are eligible for
a tax credit oi' up to 10 per-
cent of a home's purchase

price (maximum SS,(HM)).

Ihe legislation has not
onl\ been extended, but
expanded to include more
buyers A provision tor ho
meowners who have lived
in the same house for five
consecutive years and are
purchasing a new home
meeting the remaining gui-
delines has also been ad
ded to the act Those home
purchasers may be entitled
to a credit of up to S6..'s00.

In addition to the tax
credits, the Federal Hou-
sing Administration (IHA)
is allowing first time home
buyers [o use their tax cre-
dit towards a dow n payment
i>r closing costs on the new
purchase home.

The Home Buyer credit
program is ideal because the
tax credit that the home bu\ -
er receives will not have to
be repaid and mav be used
to purchase a home. l:s
sentiallv. the program has
stimulated the market to a
point where home sales are

"In the game, we went

that was great to see. We

Spread Joy - Not Germs - During Holidays community Health screenings

Before you go over the
river and through the woods
to grandmother's house this
holiday season, consider
what a University oi Wis
consin- Madison infectious-
disease specialist calls key
myths about travel and ill-
ness.

"Many people have
misconceptions about how
viruses and bacterial infec-
tions are transmitted from
person to person, especially
on airplanes.' says Dr. Jmi
Conway, an associate pro-
fessor of medicine at the
UW School of Medicine and
Public Health (SMPH) and
pediatric infectious-disease
physician at the American
Family Children's Hi)spital.

"If you combine common
sense with accurate informa-
tion, you'll have a much bet-
ter chance of staying healthy
during the holidays."

Conway says the myths
fall into three general cat-
egories.

Myth #1: ^tale airplane
aji IS jj major source of con-
ta^puir. di&£asg.

"Ihere are very few
things that fly through the
air and magically infect
other people," says Conway.
"Viral infections like flu
and colds spread when you
have contact with a droplet
from someone's sneeze or
cough. It's transmitted be-
cause humans can't seem to
keep their hands away from
their faces," says Conway.
Viruses last several hours on
surfaces while bacteria can
last lor weeks.

Myth #2: Immune-boost-
ing products will protect you
from holiday illnesses .

Conway says there is no
reliable evidence that shows
products marketed as "bol-
stering the immune system"
work. While the products
contain heavy doses of vi-
tamins, Conway says its
not ever been denK)nstrated

"HlNl: What You Need
to Know" will be the topic of
epidemiologist Dr. Paul Et-
kind, as the guest speaker at
Temple Shalom of Milton's
monthly Breakfast Lecture
Series Sunday, Dec. 20.

He will discuss some of
the many questions about the
seasonal filu and the HlNl,
often called the "swine" flu.

Dr. Etkind is the Senior
Analyst for Immunization
Policy at the National Asso-
ciation of County and City
Health Officials, which is
the professional organiza-
tion that represents local and
county health departments
in the United States. He
has spent over 30 years as

a public health epidemiolo-
gist and program manager,
mostly with the Massachu-
setts Department of Public
Health and in Nashua, New
Hampshire.

He is a past president of
Temple Shalom and a Mil-

The public is invited to
the breakfast, which begins
at 9:30 a.m. A $5 donation

DO MEN BRUSH AS OFH-EN AS WOMEN?

When the American Den-
tal Association recently con-
ducted a national survey, they
found that men and women
differ when it comes to taking
care of their teeth and gums.
According to the nationally
representative survey of 1 ,000
Americans ages 18 and older,
86 percent of women brush
their teeth twice or more a day
while only 66 percent of men
make the same effort to keep
their teeth clean. As far as
flossing is concerned, there is
room for improvement for both
genders. Slightly less than half
of those surveyed (49%) indi-
cated that they floss their teeth
once a day or more. One out
of three people surveyed think
that bleeding gums after flush-
ing their teeth is normal - but
it is not.

Your teeth can last a lifetime
if you practice basic dental

care, which involves brushing
and flossing regularly, eating
a mouth-healthy diet, and vis-
iting us for regular checkups
and cleanings. Keeping teeth
and gums healthy will contrib-
ute to overall health and enjoy-
ment of life. We 're located at
44 Greenleaf Street, where
teaching you how to prevent
dental disease and preserving
your natural teeth for a lifetime
are our primary goals. Please
call 617-479-6220 to sched-
ule an appointment. We offer
the services of anesthesiology
with a fully trained and quali-
fied anesthesiologist. Visit us
on the web at www.quincyden-
tist.com.

PS. According to the sur-
vey mentioned above, women
replace toothbrushes every
three to four months on aver-
age while men retain theirs an
average of five months.

in any clinical studies that
a few chewables or tablets
will instantly make the im-
mune system stronger.

Myth #3: Surgical masks
provide more protection
against contagious viruses .

Conway says this is a
myth with a shred of truth
in it. Surgical masks won't
stop colds and other viruses
because these viruses are
not airborne like the patho-
gens causing tuberculosis,
smallpox and measles.

"Since it would be rare
to come in contact with a
contagious disease that's
airborne, the only reason to
wear a mask on a commer-
cial airplane is that you don't
trust yourself not to touch
yt)ur mouth, eyes and nose,
not to prevent someone from
breathing in contaminated
air OR if you are coughing

by minimizing spread of

says, "lo protect yourself,
though, you're much better
off spending 89 cents for a
bottle of hand sanitizer and
keeping your hands below
your neck."

Conway says people may
be tired of hearing it, but
the prescription for staying
healthy during the holidays
is frequent hand- washing,
the use of hand sanitizer and
keeping your hands away
from your face. In addi-
tion, make sure everyone
in the family has received
their influenza vaccine, and

GETTING A LEG UP

^_^

Although pain, numbness,
and/or weakness ma\ be felt
in the legs, the source of these
symptoms does not always
emanate from where the
svmptoms are experienced.
Thus, any diagnosis should go
beyond an examination of the
legs and hip to also encompass
the lower back. The lumbar
region of the spine may be the
site of compression or pressure
on the nerve roots that extends
down to the lower extremities,
if so. consequent interruption
of nerve signals may cause leg
numbness or tingling. Sometimes
leg weakness or heaviness results
in the symptom known as "foot
drop." which is characterized by
having to drag the lower leg and
foot. The chiropractor mav be
able to isolate the root cause of
these symptoms.

Injury to the nerve can

occur an\ where from the spine
region all the way down to
the area of the knee. The next
time a health problem strikes
someone in your family, think
about chiropractic care. At
the FAMILY PRACTICE

believe chiropractic is the most
effective and widespread form
of preventative health care.

Basketball Season

Here, So Is

Jumper's Knee

DEARDR.DONOHUE:
1 play basketball - a lot.
My right knee has started
to hurt. It hurts the most
when I start to play, and
then it eases off. My coach
and dad say it is jumper's
knee. Mv coach savs to plav
through it. My dad says I
should rest it. What do you
say? - BJ.

ANSWER: Give me a
breaic. What do you think I'm
going to say? 1 side with your
dad.

At the start of every bas-
ketball season, 1 get many
letters asking about jumper's
knee. It's a common malady
of that sport, but it affects
players in many other sports,
like volleyball . The forces on
the knees and the knee ten-
dons when a jumper lands
on the ground can be greater
than nine times body weight.
That's a great deal offeree.

Jumper's knee is an in-
flammation of the tendon
that runs from the bottom of
the kneecap to the top of the
lower leg bone. The inflam-
mation comes from too much
use with too little rest. It
gradually builds up over two
to three weeks before a play-
er starts to complain. Early
on, the knee hurts the most
when a player starts to move
around and gradually lessens
as he or she continues to play.
If you don't let the inflamma-
tion quiet down, the pain will
worsen and last longer. At its
worst, it is present even when
you're sitting.

If you press on the area be-
neath the kneecap, you'll tind
it s tender if you have jump-
er's knee. A week or two of

Sunday, Jan. 24.

All are welcome.

For more information,
call Lola Tom. manager.
C\)mm unity Outreach and
Development, at 617-376-
5493.

rest is all that's needed m the
early phases. Combining rest
with Aleve, Advil or Motrin
can speed the healing.

When vou get back to
playmg, apply heat to the
knee for 10 or 15 minutes be-
fore you start. After you play,
ice it for the same amount ot
time.

1 respect both your dad's
and your coach's diagnostic
abilities, but, if things don't
turn around shortly, I'd have
a doctor examine your knee,
loo many other things cause
similar pain.

DEARDR.DONOHUE:
When you are obese and
then lose weight, how does
fat leave your body? Does
it go through the diges-
tive system? Does it pass
through your gallbladder,
liver or kidneys? 1 recently
lost quite a bit of weight
through hard work. I have
had two attacks of digestive
distress since I began to
lose the weight and wonder
if they were gallbladder at-
tacks. My husband says the
fat fairy puts weight on and
takes it off. I was looking
for a more scientific expla-
nation. - M£.

ANSWER: Fat is a fuel,
just like the gasoline in your
car's gas tank. When we need
energy to power physical
movement, much of the ener-
gy for it comes from fat. Car-
bon dioxide is one byproduct
of fat-energy burning, and we
exhale that. Other byproducts
leave in the urine. We also
bum stored fat when we re-
duce our calorie intake.

Rapid weight loss can lead
to gallstones and gallbladder
attacks. How quickly did you
lose the weight?

1 like your husband's ex-
planation. It's poetic and

mystical .

4 Thought
For THi fV£it(

A wise man once stated . . . Learn
all there is to learn and then choose
>()ur own path. . .

As we travel along life's different
paths, each and everyone of us ha>e
many choices to make. We establish
our ow n choices { or priorities) accord-
ing to our values, and each person has
a different set of priorities. We have to decide what is most
important, less important and relatively unimportant.

One might ask- wouldn't life be so much less complicated
if all we had to choose betw een w as the good and the bad - if
evervthing were black or white? But what about the vary-
ing .shades of gray, the variables and the imponderables?
Choices are often between the good things and the better
things; between the better and the best; or between our
best and God's best. And yes, sometimes we have to make
choices between the lesser of two evils. As we travel along
our life's path there are so many things that compete for a
place in our thoughts in our lives. . .

Wouldn't today be a good day to take stock of our lives
and reorder our priorities, if necessary?

Volunteers, Food, Clothes And Cash Top Elves ' List

Clock Ticking For Helping Hands' Holiday Success

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Time is running out for
the elves banding together
to bring holiday joy to those
in need throughout the city.
With just two weeks left un-
til Santa's visit, his workers
are sending out urgent calls.

Local agencies report the
number of those in need is
still growing at a staggering
pace as detailed in the re-
ports below.

At the same time, they
say, solid middle class do-
nors of years past, devastat-
ed by lost jobs, eviction and
threatened homes, are now

on the elves' lists.

"This is the first year that
we have not had enough
donors for those children,"
reported Beth Ann Strollo,
Executive Director of Quin-
cy Community Action Pro-
gram, (QCAP).

"The times are terrible,"
said Strollo whose 2009
QCAP list of children tops
500. Last year, the number
was 444.

Gifts can be as simple as
canned food, boxes of stuff-
ing mix or cans of gravy or
turkeys, hams and desserts
to fill out a food basket at

Interfaith Social Services.

New and warm hats,
scarves, mittens and socks
will stave off the winds of
winter for residents at Fa-
ther Bill's Place which is
constantly filled with guests
sleeping on cots in the re-
ception and dining areas.

This is the season for
children. In every ward and
in every comer of the city,
youngsters dream about
those special gifts listed on a
cards hung from the branch-
es of the "Giving Tree" at
St. John's Church or the
toys and warm new clothes

and coats from the Salvation
Army or Germantown Com-
munity Center.

Many of the agencies
listed below, such as DOVE
and Quincy Community
Action Program, organize
'adopt a family" or a child
program where each mem-
ber of the family provides a
wish list for donors.

While coins, dollars,
small and large checks, food
and clothing are especially
needed, some agencies, like
the Quincy Cnsis Center,
are seeking volunteers to
deliver baskets of cheer, and

to sort, wrap and label the
gifts.

The big delivery da\ for
Quincy Crisis Center is Dec
19 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

According to agency
leaders, there's never been
a shortage of helping hands
in Quincy, but many can't
remember so many hard-
working folk in such dire
straights.

"Just in the last ten min-
utes, we got two calls." said
Rick Doane. Executive Di-
rector of Interfaith Social
Services, who reported 706
visitors to the food pantry

in October, the most in 60
years."

"We just don't know
where it's going to end."
said Doane.

"We're inundated with
requests," reported Phyl-
lis Lawless who volunteers
with her husband Bill Law-
less, president of the St
Vincent de Paul Society at
St. John's Church, 21 Gay

Thursday y Friday Outside City Hall

Community Leaders To Man Salvation Army Kettle

^

A host of community
leaders will gather outside
Quincy City Hall today
and Friday to ring the bell
for the Salvation Army to
help raise money for those
in need this holiday season
and throughout the year.

The ringing gets under-
way today (Thursday) at 9
a.m. when Mayor Thomas
Koch and several former

mayors man the familiar red
kettle. Groups will continue
ringing the bell until 4 p.m.
today and start up again Fri-
day, Dec. 1 1 from 9 a.m. to
4 p.m. when the last shift is
finished.

The difficult economic
fimes mean requests for
assistance from the Salva-
tion Army is increasing.
As such, the Quincy Corps

has set a fundraising goal
of $170,000 this year for its
area- wide kettle campaign.
That figure represents an
increase of $10,000 from
last year and is 18 percent
of the Quincy Corps' total
budget for its entire annual
operation, said Major Doug
Burr of the Salvation Army
Quincy Corps.

"The kettle effort is the

largest income line item
in our budget," Burr said.
"We count on that money
not only to provide for the
needy dunng the Christmas
season, but also throughout
the whole year.

"Money raised in De-
cember will actually help
people in need all the way
through to next September.
We work hard to stretch our

donations as far as possible
and our track record shows
we do a good of that."

This is the first Christmas
in Quincy for Major Burr
and his wife. Major Debbie
Burr. They succeeded Ma-
jors Doug and Linda Jones
earlier this year as leaders of
the Quincy Corps.

City Marks 68th Anniversary Of Japanese Attack With Wreath Laying At Mount Wollaston Cemetery

Pearl Harbor Survivor Frank Connolly 'Saw The Planes'

By JOE REARDON

Frank Connolly saw the
planes on the horizon as
he stood on the deck of the
USS Saint Louis with an en-
sign on the morning of Dec.
7. 1941.

The 20-year-old Connol-
ly, a range-finding seaman
at the No. 1 turret, assumed
that the low-flying crafts
were U.S. planes doing
maneuver exercises, just as
they did every morning. He
thought nothing of it.

"We watched about 25 to
30 planes coming in," said
Connolly. "I said to him,
'Sunday, another drill.' They
weren't aiming for us. They
were aiming for the battle
ships."

When the first wave of

planes went by, Connolly
knew there was something
horribly wrong.

"The first two planes
didn't fire at us," said the
88-year-old Quincy resi-
dent. "They (the pilots) just
smiled. 1 saw them. I said to
the ensign those are Japa-
nese planes. They caught
us at the perfect time. They
caught us doing the colors."

Connolly was ordered
to cut the awnings so the
Saint Louis' turrets could
move and fire at the incom-
ing planes. "There was no
chance firing the guns so I
spent the morning cutting
the awnings," Connolly
said.

The Japanese attack of
Pearl Harbor proved to be

FRANK CONNOLLY

Seaman - World War II

devastating to the United
States fleet docked in Ha-
waii. Waves of 183 and 170
planes, under the command
of Admiral Isoroku Yama-
moto, pounded the anchored
fleet.

SUNDAY, DEC. 7, 1941

"At exactly 7:56 the ship sounded General Quarters to
repel Japanese torpedo, dive, and horizontal bomber's at-
tack. At 10:00, after shooting down 6 Japanese planes and
still undamaged we got underway at 10:20 we were leaving
the mouth of the channel when a sub attacked us with 3 tor-
pedoes. They hit a reef with 2 of them and the other missed
the stem by about 5 yds. About 10 minutes later we repelled
3 dive bombers and a tin can (destroyer) accounted for the
other sub. (We fired Mtl at the first sub and shot the bonning
tower off. She blew up and turned bottom up and sank). We
escaped unscathed along with the Phoenix and Detroit.

Summary; We lost 3 battleships 2 tin cans, a whole army
air field (Hickam file, the 2"^ largest in the worid) , a couple of
hangers in the air station, about 15 P.B.Ys and a few smaller
ships. We had damaged also 4 battleships, 2 light cruisers, 1

• On Dec. 19, 1986,
Michael Sergio, who para-
chuted into Game Six of
the 1986 Worid Series at
New York's Shea Stadium,
is fined $500 and sentenced
to 100 hours of community
service. However, Sergio
was later held in contempt
of court for refusing to re-
veal the name of the pilot
who flew the plane. As a
result, in May 1987, he was
sentenced to six months in
federal prison.

John Hancock Birthday
Plunge Jan. 16 To Benefit
Interfaith Social Services

The Quincy Beaches
and Coastal Commission,
Friends of Wollaston Beach
and the Department of Con-
servation and Recreation
will present the John Han-
cock Birthday Plunge at
Wollaston Beach Saturday,
Jan. 16 at 11:30 a.m.

The plunge into Quincy
Bay will benefit Interfaith
Social Services.

Since 1947, Interfaith
Social Services (ISS) has
been helping families and
individuals in need on the
South Shore.

This will be the fourth
annual plunge which is a
tribute to John Hancock, the
first signer of the Declara-

tion of Independence, prom-
inent Patriot, and a former
resident of Quincy.

"Plungers" can help by
soliciting sponsors using a
pledge sheet.

Free "Plunge" tee-shirts
will be given to each "Plung-
er." Prizes will be awarded
in the following categories:
most money raised, most
unusual "get-up," and oldest
and youngest participants.

For more information
about the plunge and for a
pledge sheet, contact Leo
Kelly, QBCC chairman at
617-773-1534, or Chickie
Abdallah, QBCC member
and event coordinator at
617-479-2142.

Did Martha Coakley give local politicians an early
Christmas present by winning the Democratic nomina-
tion for U.S. Senate in Tuesday's special primary?
That gift being a big box of political opportunity?
With her Democratic nomination Tuesday, Coakley
took a giant step towards succeeding the late Ted Kennedy.
The current Massachusetts attorney general will square off
against Republican nominee Scott Brown, a state senator
from Wrentham, in the special final election Jan. 19. The
winner on Jan. 19 will officially fill out the balance of Ken-
nedy 's term that ends Jan. 3 , 20 1 3 . The winner can also seek
re-election to a full six-year term in 2012.

Coakley is the heavy favorite to win the Senate seat next
month. One reason: there hasn't been a Republican U.S.
senator in Massachusetts in 31 years. That was former Sen.
Edward Brooke who was first elected in 1966.

The Republican Brooke served two six-year terms until
he was defeated by the late Sen. Paul Tsongas in 1978. Sen.
John Kerry now holds that Senate seat.

Another good omen for Coakley: Kennedy's Senate seat
has been in Democratic hands for nearly 58 years. The last
Republican to hold that seat was Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr.
He was defeated in a bid for re-election in 1952 by a young
John F. Kennedy.

Of course, times have changed. Party politics aren't what
they used to be and unenrolled voters are the single biggest
voting bloc not only in Quincy by state- wide.

Brown certainly has a chance to win the Senate race.
But if Coakley becomes the state's first female U.S. sena-
tor Jan. 19, that could trigger a domino effect throughout
Quincy 's political landscape.

So much so that you may need a
scorecard to figure out who's running for
what.

This we do know:

A Coakley Senate win could lead to
open seats for Norfolk County district at-
torney, state senator and perhaps as many
as two state representative seats.

Norfolk County District Attorney Wil-
liam Keating, a Sharon Democrat, has in-
dicated he will run for attorney general if
Coakley wins the Senate sweepstakes. If Coakley does win,
the Massachusetts House and Senate would convene to ap-
point her successor. That successor would face re-election
next fall when Coakley 's attorney general term is up.

One insider told The Sun that Keating would run against
virtually anyone who is selected to fill Coakley's seat - ex-
cept Secretary of State William Galvin. He and Keating are
pretty good ftiends and would not run against one another,
the source said.

An open Norfolk County D.A. seat is
drawing a lot of attention. Sen. Michael
Morrissey of Quincy and State Rep. Jo-
seph DriscoU of Braintree have said they
will run if Keating does not seek re-elec-
tion as D.A.

Morrissey - who is also an attorney -
is one of the longest serving legislators on
Beacon Hill. He served as a state repre-
sentative from 1977 to 1992 and as state
senator since 1993. Morrissey succeeded
the late Paul D. Harold who vacated his senate seat to run
for Congress in 1992. Harold was defeated in the Demo-
cratic primary that year by Cong. Gerry Studds in a redrawn
congressional district.

Other potential D.A. candidates have popped up as well.
One is Norfolk County Register of Deeds William
O'Donnell. O'Donnell, a Norwood Democrat, ran for dis-
trict attorney in 1998. He finished second - behind Keating
and ahead of John J. Corrigan of Brookline - in the Demo-
cratic primary. O'Donnell's vote was 26,608 to Keating's
38,313.

Another possible candidate: outgoing Ward 4 Council-
lor Jay Davis. The three-term councillor who is complet-
ing his second year as council president is
managing partner of a Quincy law prac-
tice. Davis's professional background in-
cludes two years working as a prosecutor
in the Plymouth County D.A. office. He
has also represented criminal clients in
Stoughton, Wrentham,
Dedham and Quincy
District Court.

Davis said he is also
considering rurming for
state senator if Morrissey runs for D.A.
and state representative if Rep. Bruce Ay-
ers runs for senate.
AYERS Asked if he's interested in running for

McDERMOTT

MAHONEY

MORRISSEY

DAVIS

an open senate seat, Ayers replied: "I have a great district
and constituency, but we'll see how the race unfolds."

One state representative who would definitely vacate his
rep seat and run for senate is Steve Tobin. He told the Sun
he's in - but only if there's an open seat.

Tobin who was elected state representative in 1988, held
a fundraiser Wednesday night. He's also
riquired about leasing space on Hancock
Street in Quincy Center for a campaign
headquarters.

A "Tobin for Senate" candidacy would
represent a "back to the future" moment
^^I'l^'j^^Bj in local politics.
J^BJI^^H Tobin 's father, former mayor and
^^TOBIN Quincy District Court magistrate Arthur

Tobin, was elected to the same senate seat
in a special election in 1971. That year,
former Mayor and Senator Jim Mclntyre vacated the senate
seat to become Counsel to the Massachusetts Senate.

Arthur Tobin held the senate seat until he was defeated
by Paul Harold in 1978.

Another potential candidate for Morrissey 's senate seat
is Patrick McDermott, former Ward 3 councillor and present
Norfolk County Register of Probate. Mc-
Dermott is also thinking about running
for the open state auditor's post (Joseph
DeNucci is not seeking re-election next
year) .

McDermott 's term as Register of Pro-
bate is not up again until
2014. So he could wage
a campaign for another
office next year and not
risk losing his current post.

There's also strong speculation that
School Committeewoman Arme Mahon-
ey, who recentiy topped the city ballot
in wirming a second term in November,
would seek an open state senate seat. Ma-
honey - who received over 14,000 votes
and topped the six-candidate field - will be elected vice
chairwoman of the School Committee at the city's inaugu-
ration ceremonies Jan. 4.

Naturally, one or two open state representative seats
would also draw considerable interest from other potential
candidates - especially current city councillors and perhaps
other school committee members.

Besides Davis, another current city official weighing his
options is Ward 3 Councillor Kevin Coughlin.

Coughlin - who was elected to a fifth term in November
- will become the next council president Jan. 4. He lives in
Tobin's representative district. But he also has property in
Ayers's district so technically he could run for either seat.
Davis also lives in Ayers's state representative district.
Another ward councillor - Ward 5's Doug Gutro - says
he is not interested in running for an open senate or rep seat.
Some observers believe he is a future mayoral contender.

Election Year 2010: Might need a list and check it twice
for all those would-be candidates.

G
QUINCY GOVERNMENT will mark a historic mile-
stone on Jan. 4: that's when six women will be serving in
elective office, the most at one time.

They are: School Committeewomen Anne Mahoney, Em-
ily Lebo, Barbara Isola, Elaine Dwyer and Jo-Ann Bragg;
and Ward 1 Councillor Margaret Laforest.

Mahoney was re-elected to a second four-year term while
Lebo and Isola were elected to their first terms in Novem-
ber. Dwyer and Bragg are mid-way through their four-year
terms.

Laforest was elected Ward 1 councillor in November.
She'll be the fifth woman to serve as a city councillor - and
the first from Ward 1 .

In all, there have been 26 women elected to three munici-
pal offices: school committee, ward councillor and council-
lor at-large.

THIS REAL PHOTO postcard is a view of the Quincy
Armory on Hancock Street just after it was built in
1924. Designed to resemble a fortress, it has mock tow-
ers on the corners and the front entrance; it even has
a moat under the bridge from the roadway. The stone
facade of the front portion of the building is Weymouth
seam-faced granite that was widely used at the time
for churches and civic buildings. Today, this armory is
home to the Massachusetts National Guard Company
G, 186th Support Battalion that has completed training

and is now on their way to Afghanistan. It is also used as
a military recruitment office. Until recently, the building
was also used for driver license testing by the Registry
of Motor Vehicles. Over the years the rear portion of the
building has had many other community uses including
as a dance hall for the city's high school proms and as a
gymnasium for boxing and wrestling events. To contact

Quincy Public Schools Meet The Needs Of Students

Representatives of the
Hanlin International Acad-
emy have been publicizing
their opinions about MCAS
data, particularly in Math
and Science..

It is important for parents
to understand that Quincy
MCAS results match State
results. For Grade 8 Math,
the percentage of Quincy
students who scored Profi-
cient or Advanced is higher
than the percentage of stu-
dents statewide who scored
Proficient or Advanced.
The percentage of Quincy
students who scored Profi-
cient or Advanced on Grade
8 Science is also higher than
the state percentage.

Further, Massachusetts is
proud to showcase national
test results in Grade 8 Math
that are the top in the nation,
with an average score (299)
that is higher than the aver-
age score of public school
students nationwide (282).

Parents need to under-
stand that the MCAS is a
challenging test. When
Quincy School students
match the state on this chal-
lenging MCAS, and Mas-
sachusetts is the leader in
the nation on the nationwide
NAEP assessment, then I
believe that Quincy Schools
are preparing our students to
compete when they gradu-
ate.

It is always important
for parents to look at the
progress of their own stu-
dent, and to talk with their
student's teacher about the
ways their child is learning.

Parents need to question

the opinions that the found-
ers of the Hanlin Interna-
tional Academy are publi-
cizing as they look for ways
to start their school with
public funds.

The Hanlin Interna-
tional Academy claims to
have reached out to City
Officials. I have been a sit-
ting member of the Quincy
School Committee for the
last 4 years and have just
recently been re-elected. I
have always made myself
available for questions yet,
1 have never once been ap-
proached by any member of
this proposed school, with
one exception. At the end
of a candidate's night I was
offered a sign location by a
new acquaintance. Unfortu-
nately, after researching the
proposed charter schools'
website, I discovered that
this very person was a mem-
ber of the Hanlin Board. He
did not disclose this infor-
mation to me. Needless to

say the sign was removed
from that location. This may
not be a big deal to some, but
I have been vocal about my
views on this charter school
and for this member not ti>
disclose this inforraation is a
direct reflection on how this
proposed school chooses to
represents itself.

1 believe the Quincy
Public Schools are meeting
the needs of our students.
This proposed charter school
tears at the very fabric of the

Quincy Public School Sys-
tems mission; To educate
ALL of our student popula-
tion. Please do not let this
happen to our School Sys-
tem. To learn more, please
visit my website Mahoney-
SchoolCommittee.com and

cal issue.

Twenty schools from
eastern Massachusetts -
including Quincy High
School - have been chosen
to compete on High School
Quiz Show, the new weekly
series debuting on WGBH
on March 22, 2010.

The competition will cul-
minate in a statewide play-
off for the championship, as
four teams from WGBY's
academic game program, As
Schools Match Wits, arrive
in WGBH's studios to com-
pete with High School Quiz
Show's four top qualifying
teams.

The producers of High
School Quiz Show selected
schools with consideration
given to location, size, di-
versity, and the commitment
of a team coach. More than
70 schools from eastern
Massachusetts applied to
participate in the first season
of High School Quiz Show,
and based on WGBH's cri-

teria, the selection was nar-
rowed to 20.

"To make it fair - and
fun - we wanted a complete
representation of schools in
Massachusetts," said High
School Quiz Show producer
Hillary Wells. "The partici-
pating schools range from
large to small in size, from
urban to suburban, from
charter schools to public.
The initial match-ups be-
tween the schools will be
chosen randomly, with team
names pulled from a hat."

The competing high
school teams and their en-
thusiastic supporters will
gather at WGBH's Brigh-
ton studios over the course
of three days - Jan. 30, 31
and Feb. 6 - for 10 qualify-
ing rounds, as a live studio
audience of families, fel-
low students, and commu-
nity members cheer on their
hometown teams from the
sidelines.

On May 1 and 2, the top
four qualifying teams from
High School Quiz Show
will meet at WGBH to
tape the state quarterfinals,
semifinals and champion-
ship with four teams from
As Schools Match Wits,
the long-running series pro-
duced and broadcast by sis-
ter station WGBY in asso-
ciation with Westfield State
College. The state finals and
championship will be broad-
cast in June on WGBH and
WGBY

Quiz questions for the
teams will correlate with
the core Massachusetts
high school curriculum, in-
cluding literature, history,
and science, together with
current events, sports, en-
tertainment, and general
knowledge. High School
Quiz Show is endorsed by
the Massachusetts Depart-
ment of Elementary and
Secondary Education.

Baker Chocolate Company
History Slide Lecture Dec. 15

A free slide lecture about
the history of the Baker
Chocolate Company will
be presented by Anthony
Sammarco, author of "The
Baker Chocolate Company:
A Sweet History" Tuesday,
Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. at the
Thomas Crane Public Li-
brary, 40 Washington St.

In 1765, Dr. James Baker
of Dorchester met John Han-
non, a penniless Irish immi-

Peanuttiest Peanut Butter Cookies

Anytime I read a recipe that needs to be
chilled 1 by pass it. and almost never use it.
But recently while sitting in the doctor's of-
fice 1 found a great recipe for peanut butter
cookies. And after all. the chilling time was
only an hour.

Over the years, I've made several peanut
butter cookie recipes, some that didn't even
need baking. This one caught my eye because
1 had all the ingredients at home.
PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES

Vi cup peanut butter

Vi cup butter) melted)

Vz cup brown sugar (softened)

^ cup sugar

Vz teaspoon salt

1 -teaspoon baking soda

I-'Va cups flour

J egg

1-cup water

1 -teaspoon vanilla

a few halved peanuts (I placed mine
around the perimeter of the cookie.)

Mix together the butter, peanut butter,
brown sugar, sugar, salt, and baking soda.
Add the egg. water, vanilla, and flour. Add the
peanuts if you want them inside the cookie.
Otherwise keep until the end and add them
around the cookie. Beat until smooth.

Chill for one hour. On a cookie sheet drop
the cookies about 2 inches apart, and bake in
a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes.

Since 1 love large sized cookies. 1 made
them twice the size of a regular cookie and
they took about 25 minutes to bake.

DIAMOND-ENCIRCLED WRISTS

While there certainly sure to make their way onto the

has been no drop-off in the
popularity of diamond rings,
earrings, and necklaces, women
are increasingly looking to
wear diamond bracelets to
make fashion statements. This
trend was bolstered by the First
Lady's decision to wear a wrist
full of diamonds on the night of
the Inaugural Ball. After that,
celebrities such as Demi Moore,
Kate Winslet, and Frieda Pinto
("Slumdog Millionaire") could all
be seen walking the red carpets of
various award shows ensconced
in vintage diamond bangles, a
three-row diamond bracelet, and
a fifty-three-carat rectangular
diamond bracelet, respectively.
Variations of these bracelets are

STRATEGIES

SAFETY

Many of the safety features
in today's automobiles, such as
anti-lock brakes and electronic
stability control, exert themselves
without the driver ever having
to intervene. However, there are
drivers who tempt fate by driving
more aggressively than they would
otherwise without the safety
systems. Wvers must realize that
their lack of attention to safety can
cancel out the safety advantages
that airbags and other safety
devices bring. The so-called "offset
hypothesis" holds that drivers
"adapt" to safety innovations by
becoming more relaxed and less
vigilant about safety. Instead,
drivers should hold themselves to
the same high safety standard that
automobile manufacturers expect
of their own products. Safe driving
behavior is the most important

FIRST!

driving safety factor.

The safety features built into
today's vehicles do not replace the
need for drivers to follow conmion
sense: obey speed limits, avoid
distractions such as talking on the
cell phone, and be sure to have the
right type and level of insurance
coverage. Please call JAMES
J. SULLIVAN INSURANCE
AGENCY at 617-328-8600 for an
auto insurance quote by phone or
to arrange a consultation. Because
we represent many major insurance
carriers, we offer policies for cars,
trucks, SUVs, and motorcycles at
very competitive rates. Smarter
Choice! Smarter Move! Our office
is located at 1 51 Hancock Street.

the safety belt, only works if you
buckle it.

Quincy Credit Union Kicks Off
Caring For Quincy Campaign

Quincy Credit Union an-
nounces its Caring for Quin-
cy Campaign to benefit the
Germantown Neighborhood
Center.

The campaign focuses on
those in need from all Quin-
cy neighborhoods. Many
families throughout the city
will struggle this holiday
season. Christmas gifts are
low on the priority list; in-
stead, basic necessities are
desperately needed.

With food pantries at
critical levels, many work-
ing families are having dif-

ficulty making ends meet.

"During these difficult
economic times, we need to
rally together as a team and
help our Quincy residents
who are affected," said
Kathy Quigley, director of
the Germantown Neighbor-
hood Center.

QCU's campaign offers a
few different ways to help.

For stocking stuffers.
Milliard's chocolate candy
bars are being sold for $2
each and monetary donations
large and small are being ac-
cepted to help Germantown

Neighborhood Center pur-
chase items needed for most
families.

"The Caring for Quincy
Campaign should inspire us
to help those less fortunate,"
said QCU Senior Vice Presi-
dent of Marketing Judy Bra-
zil. "If everyone who visited
the credit union purchased a
$2 chocolate bar, or donated
their loose change, we could
certainly make a few spirits
bright this holiday season.

"Every little bit helps,"
Brazil added.

the British had invented ra-
dar that was being sent to
Pearl Harbor.

"They smelled a rat then
and that was in September,"
Connolly said. "They posi-
tively knew there was going
to be a war, but they didn't
know when or where. The
good old British invented
the radar and saved a lot of
ships."

The Saint Louis made

it out of the harbor later in
the morning as the attack
continued. They followed
the U.S.S. Nevada, which
was taking a pounding by
torpedoes. "We didn't get
any dings," Connolly said.
"We were the first major
ship to get out and that was
at 11a.m.

"The Nevada got hit
with two-man subs. When
it beached itself, we went by

them. Torpedoes went right
by us. One hit a reef and
the other missed us by five
feet."

Following the attaclc.
Connolly was assigned to
the boat that had the grue-
some task of recovering the
bodies of the sailors who
were killed.

"We piled them up like
logs," said Connolly. "Bod-
ies floated to the surface for

a month."

Connolly retired from the
Navy as a Gunner's Mate
First Class on Nov. 8, 1946.
Among the medals he was
awarded include the Ameri-
can Defense Service Medal,
Presidential Unit Citation,
Occupation of Japan Medal,
American Area Campaign
Medal and the Asiatic Pa-
cific Area and Campaign
Medal .

Updated Downtown Plan Expected Early Next Year

Cont 'd From Page 3

for a "Land Disposition
Agreement" in the early part
of the year. The agreement,
which will set the financial
terms of the development
project, is unrelated to spe-
cific design components of
the project.

The agreement will be
the subject of City Council
hearings and will require
Council approval. The over-
all project, including design
elements will be subject to
a special permitting pro-
cess by the Quincy Planning
Board, and a number of
other state and local permits
will be required.

The extensive public
process anticipated for 2010
follows more than 20 pub-
lic meetings held on pre-
liminary designs last year
to introduce residents to the

project.

"As we said before, this
will be the most significant
investment in our City's his-
tory and it will also be the
extensive public process for
any project in Quincy's his-
tory," Koch said. "We are
listening to the community,
and we will continue to do
so as the project moves for-
ward."

The Street-Works plan
will introduce major design
and infrastructure changes
to Quincy Center while re-
inforcing and retaining the
area's distinctive roots, his-
tory and feel. The plan will
create a revitalized down-
town neighborhood with a
new residential community,
new office space focused on
wellness, education and cor-
porate users large and small,
two new hotels, and an ap-

propriate venue for selected
new larger format retailer
tenants to complement the
smaller street-level retailers
that drive the sense of vital-
ity and place.

The design will be laced
together with a network of
wide sidewalks for outdoor
dining and browsing, and a
series of green spaces and
public areas that will honor
Quincy's history, enhance

the center's walkability.
And heighten its appeal to
visitors and residents alike.
According to an eco-
nomic analysis by the New
York-based firm AKRF, the
project will boost the city's
property tax revenues by
$ 10 million per year and will
generate 4^22 construction
jobs in Quincy and 7,240
total direct and indirect con-
struction jobs in the state.

Name Entity: Quincy Chamber Of Commerce

Quincy 2000, Discover Quincy
Form New Partnership

Two prominent non-prof-
it organizations in the City
of Quincy - Quincy 2000
Collaborative and Discover

into a partnership.

The partnership - effec-
tive Dec. 2 - creates a new
organization that combines
their respective programs

single entity. The name of
the new organization will
be the Quincy Chamber of
Commerce.

"We are very excited
about the new possibilities
that will be realized by join-
ing forces," said Edward
Keohane, chairman and
president of Quincy 2000
Collaborative.

"It further strengthens
our goal to support our 475
existing members, attract
quality commercial invest-
ment, and help make our
great city a better place in
which to live, work, visit
and invest," Keohane add-
ed.

Thepartnershipwill result
in the creation of one single,
clearly defined organiza-
tion with an internationally
recognized name that rep-
resents the economic, busi-
ness and tourism interests
of the City of Quincy. All
existing and new programs
and services provided by
Quincy 2000 Collaborative
and Discover Quincy will
operate under this organiza-
tion and will represent all
that encompasses economic
development, business de-
velopment, cultural and arts
enhancement, and tourism

Business leaders from

provides better name rec-
ognition to service the over
300,000 tourists that visit
the Adams National Park
annually; the over 6,000
commercial enterprises con-
ducting business in the com-
munity daily; and the local,
state and federal agencies
that support the programs
and services undertaken by
each organization.

"There is no other busi-
ness and tourism name
like the Quincy Chamber
of Commerce that is more
identifiable and has the
distinctive significance

apparent to all economic
and tourism communities
worldwide," said Michael
McGurl , chairman and pres-

ident of Discover Quincy.

The Quincy Chamber
of Commerce will be a
new and reenergized entity
that will match the quality
and dynamism- of the new

ment. Positioning the orga-
nization with the resources
to successfully implement
a professional, organized,
comprehensive and com-
petent business, tourism,
and economic development
vision in partnership with
a new 21st century urban
downtown will support the
long-term growth and sus-
tainability of both.

Merrymount School In Special Salute To Veterans

Day lessons by attending

grade class.

was the master of ceremo-
nies.

thanking our veterans were

han, Thomas Jaehnig, Ali
Mokalled and Mark Rear-
don.

Evan Bausemer, Stepha-
nie Stalder, Michael O'Brien
and Kelsey Dunn enacted a
play about veterans.

ciation. They were: Kevin

Morrissey Supports Utility Company Accountability

The state Senate and
House of Representatives
have approved a House-
Senate Compromise Bill in-
tended to increase ratepayer
safety and utility quality
service.

The bill was in reaction
to the intense ice storm last
winter which crippled an
unprepared electric com-
pany, and left thousands of
customers without power
for up to two weeks in Cen-
tral Mass.

Sen. Michael Morrissey
of Quincy, as chairman of
the Committee on Telecom-
munications, Utilities and
Energy, led the 6-member
conference committee of
House and Senate members
to produce the final bill.

The bill requires each
utility to file emergency re-
sponse plans for approval
by the Department of Pub-
lic Utilities that outline
emergency communication
procedures with local offi-

cials, account for those with
documented medical needs
for electricity, safety of cus-
tomers and employees, and
mutual aid and assistance
programs.

"It is important that we
know that our utility compa-
nies are prepared for emer-
gencies, and that they will
work with local officials
in such events," Morrissey
said.

Upon the declaration of
a state of emergency by the
governor, the Department
of Public Utilities will now
have increased authority to
immediately step in to re-
store necessary utility ser-
vices by issuing response
orders to the company, or
tapping other utility compa-
nies to assist in the restora-
tion efforts.

In the interest of longer-
term public safety, the attor-
ney general may petifion the
court to place a small utility
company (under 100,000

customers) into receivership
for an appointed amount of
time. The attorney general
may act on his or her own
initiative, by request of the
Department of Public Utili-
ties, or by the request of the
local governing body of an
affected city or town.

"The residents of Central
Mass. saw firsthand the re-
sult of poor emergency re-

sponse planning. The new
increased authority of the
Department of Public Utili-
ties will ensure that ali of
the state's utilit\ companies
are prepared to keep the
ratepayer safe in the event
of an emergency or storm
through greater oversight,
emergency response plan-
ning, and penalties for poor
service," Morrissey said.

Spangled Banner" by 5*
grade student Alex Cox.

The assembly was just a
part of the school's activi-
ties to recognize and honor
Veterans this year.

Squantum teacher Mi-
chelle Painter organized
many of the activities around
the Veteran's Day holiday
which also included a can
and goods drive. Donations
were recently shipped to the
troops serving overseas.

"We collected more than
a few hundred pounds of
cans and goods as a way
to support our troops," said
Mrs. Painter. "This is just
another way to say thank
you for all they do," she
added.

A wider crack can be

chisel and hammer, smooth
the inside walls of the crack
and angle them slightly so
that the crack is slightly
wider at the bottom than at
the top. Mix up a batch of
concrete - just enough to
fill the crack, plus a little
extra. Spray a little water
from a handheld spray bot-
tle into the crack, then use
a trowel to smooth the con-
crete into the crack. Pack
the concrete in firmly until
it mounds over the surface;
then smooth it even.

Allow the patch to air-
dry for a couple of hours.
Then, cover the patched sur-
face with plastic sheeting to
prevent any moisture from
getting in. The patch must
cure for about five days.

HOME TIP: When pur
chasing concrete, buy only
what you need for the job,
as it doesn't store well and
is very susceptible to mois-
ture.

(ARA) - Interior design
continues to evolve rapidly
But it's not just going in one
direcfion - it's branching out
in new ways and giving ho-
meowners fodder for ideas
about how they can turn
their existing house into
their dream home. There is
something for every taste,
too, as different design con-
cepts become more fully de-
veloped, catering to all peo-
ple and all styles of homes.
The wide variety of op-
tions that homeowners have
means that they need to keep
focused on a specific design
goal. Exposed ductwork or
industrial-looking concrete
floors won't work in some
houses, while antler chande-
liers or tufted chaises won't
work in others. There are

a few elements that can be
mixed and matched across
styles, but the inclusion
of organic materials, par-
ticularly wood like Western
Red Cedar, for interior de-
sign works for all styles of
homes.

Today, more homeown-
ers are improving and reno-
vating their homes - updat-
ing both the decor and the
functional elements - rather
than taking on the chal-
lenge of selling and buying
in the current market. Many
of them are also using and
developing their own skills,
when it comes to both de-
sign and bnnging their ideas
to life. And as winter closes
in, do-it-yourselfers are
looking for low-cost, high-
impact projects that will

make their homes feel up-
dated and more inviting

Figuratively, bringing
the outdoors in can have
a warming effect on your
home. Look to nature for
inspiration on everything
from color to materials to
elements that reflect the
landscape that surrounds
your home.

Minor structural addi-
tions and intenor treatments
add appeal to a stagnant
room. Al.so new. environ-
mentally friendly clay treat-
ments are available in a
variety of colors, and add
a rustic but subtle tacfile
quality. The nch color and
attractive grain of Western
Red Cedar panel provide
immediate interest without
the added struggle of learn-

"Homeowners are adding

•Mackie of the Western Red
Cedar Lumber Association.
Look for a stable wood that
will not warp and twist over

choice for ceiling, picture
and floor moldings, as well
a- other trims, because of its
uniform grain.

Western Red Cedar is
also a great choice to cre-

home, or to conceal visu-
ally distracting elements
like support beams or duct

f A Job Well Done

On Saturday, Nov. 28, at approximately 2:55 a.m..
Officer Patrick Folan was dispatched to the area of
the Sovereign Bank located at 1 150 Hancock St. to
meet a female victim of an unarmed robbery.

Up)on arrival. Officer
Folan interviewed the vic-
tim, a, 33 year-old female,
who stated that a young
man stole her purse. She
said that she did not know
the suspect, however,
she met him earlier in the
night at a local bar. She
provided a description
of the suspect as a man
with dark hair, in his early
twenties and was wear-
ing light colored camou-
flage clothing. This information was given out to all
patrolling units. The victim added that she went out
with friends earlier in the night and the suspect was
invited by one of her friends.

At the end of the evening, the victim and suspect
were the only ones of the group remaining. The
suspect told her that "he was down on his luck and
needed help getting home." The suspect and the
victim walked over to the rear parking lot of the
Sovereign Bank, where the victim told the suspect
she had to go to the bathroom. She walked over to
the rear of the building, leaving behind her purse.
When she returned moments later, both the purse
and the suspect were gone.

The victim used her cell phone to call the Police
for assistance. She stated that the purse contained
persona] items including her credit cards. Tlie victim
was given a ride home and advised to cancel all her
credit cards.

At approximately 3:35 a.m.. Officer Chris Kli-
er stopped a person resembling the description of the
suspect near Quincy High School. Officer Klier ra-
dioed Officer Folan, inquiring what the victim's last
name was. Officer Folan responded to the scene and
found the suspect sitting in the cruiser handcuffed,
wearing a camouflage jacket.

Officer Klier stated that he asked the man
where he was coming from the and man respond-
ed, "I just found some $%^& tonight." The man
then handed Officer KJier a baseball cap filled
with two packs of cigarettes and three bottles of pre-
scription medication. Officer Klier observed that the
name on the bottles were the same as the victim's.

Officer Klier then conducted a pat frisk and the
man stated, "I've got credit cards too." Inside the
suspect's wallet, the officer found 5 credit cards
with the victim's name. At this point, the suspect
said, "I did it - I'm guilty. Do they have blankets in
the cells?"

The suspect said that he met the victim in the bar,
describing her as strange and weird. They ended up
in a parking lot, where she asked him to hold her
purse while she went the bathroom. He said that as
soon as she was out of sight, he took off with the
purse, taking the items out and discarding the purse
at the T station. The suspect, a 23 year old Quincy
resident, was charged with two offenses - Larceny
and Possession of Controlled Substances. Officers
searched for the purse to no avail .

Nice Work!

Q

SCAM OF THE WEEK: Officer Karvelis in-
vestigated a case where a female was the victim
of fraud. The woman stated that she filed for a job
online with Priceline Inc. and soon after received a
check, with instructions to deposit it in her account
while keeping 6% for herself. After depositing the
check for $3,238.00, she was alerted by the bank
that the check was fraudulent. The victim, who sent
her check, minus the 6%, to an address supplied
by Priceline Inc. (not to be confused with Priceline
Travel) is now out the money.

piled ai^ submitted by the Quincy Police Department.

HS Winter Sports Season
Starts This Weekend

By SEAN BRENNAN

Winter does not officially
begin until December 21,
but for the student-athletes
at Quincy and North Quincy
High School, it (the winter
sports season, that is) began
in earnest last week when
tryouts for hockey, basket-
ball, wrestling, girls swim-
ming and winter track got
underway.

It is time to put away
the soccer balls, football
pads, volleyball nets and
golf clubs and break out
the pucks, high tops, and
mats and swim gear. The
2009-20 10- winter season
is here and with it come
dreams of team and individ-
ual success, and this season,
there is plenty to be excited
about if you are a fan of high
school sports in Quincy.

Starting next week. The
Quincy Sun will begin pre-
views of all of the city's
teams, but this week, we
take a quick glance at some
early-season games.

QUINCY HIGH SCHOOL

Boys Basketball

The Quincy Presidents
will be looking to rebound
this winter from a dis-
appointing campaign in
2008-2009. Quincy sat on-
the-outside looking in, in
regards to the Division II
South Sectional basketball
tournament last season after
finishing the year with a los-
ing record (5-12 overall).

This year's team will
play in the Patriot League's
Fisher Division after play-
ing last year in the Keenan
Division.

Quincy had made the
tournament three straight
seasons leading up to 2008-
2009.

Under the direction of
head coach David Parry; the
Presidents open the season
on Dec. 15 against Pem-
broke HS before hitting the
road to play PL foes Ha-
nover (12/18) and Randolph

(12/22) before Christmas
Day.

Quincy will play in the
John Adams Classic at
Braintree HS over the holi-
day break, getting back into
league play on Jan. 5 against
Rockland.

This season, due to
continued construction at
QHS, the Presidents will be
playing all home games at
NQHS.

Girls Basketball

A core of returning play-
ers should help improve on
Quincy's 4-16 overall re-

Catch This! Quincy's

Dick Laracy Named

MVP of 'World Series'

By SEAN BRENNAN

Not many folks 70-and-
older can still do what Quin-
cy's Dick Laracy is doing
(and doing at a high level)
on the baseball diamond, but
he hopes that there is some-
one out there in this city
who would like to at least
give it a try. And why not?
If Laracy, who at the age
of 77, still plays baseball's
toughest position (catcher),
can do it, he is confident
that there may be a player
who wants to dust off their
old bat and glove and join
him next year playing for
the New England Red Sox
in what will be the second
Over-70 Baseball World Se-
ries in Florida.

"This year's team had a
good series," said Laracy
about the New England Red
Sox's 6-1 run in the first-
ever Over-70 World Series
held November 16-22 at the
Boston Red Sox and Min-
nesota Twins spring train-
ing facilities in Fort Myers,
Florida. "We lost to the San
Diego Silver Foxes in the
championship game, but we
played well."

The team may have fin-
ished one game short of a
World Series title , but Laracy
did everything in his power
to bring that title to New
England. He was named the
World Series Most Valuable
Player (MVP) after batting
.529 and catching every in-
ning of the tournament. Not
bad for a player many in
baseball circles consider the
oldest active catcher in the
country.

"1 had a good series, 1
ran well and hit well." he
humbly said last week in
an interview at his Quincy
home. "But the main reason
for us talking is that we need
players. 1 am blessed to be
able to work out three times
a week and my body feels
fine. 1 get a little tired come
the seventh or eighth inning.

but 1 know that there are
players out there who if they
came out and got in shape
they could do it as well.

"If you played baseball in
the past, you can still play.
We are hoping that there are
local players who want to
join our team and play next
year."

Laracy mentioned that
every Thursday at 10 a.m. a
group of older players con-
verge on O'Rourke Field
in Quincy and take batting
and fielding practice, and
he wants to get the word out
that that option is currently
available.

"We want folks to come
out on Thursday and play,
but finding 70-and-Over
players is sometimes impos-
sible," Laracy noted. "Most
of the time we have people
come one time and never
come back; our current New
England Red Sox team has
only myself and three other
local players on the team.
The majority of the players
come from Florida. Califor-
nia and North Dakota. We
would like to have a few
more New England play-
ers.

For Laracy, being a base-
ball catcher has been a pas-
sion of his since a very early
age. He was a three-sport
athlete at North Quincy High
School, but it was baseball
that was his first love.

"I was bom and raised
in Quincy and played three
sports at North Quincy High
School, but baseball was al-
ways what 1 loved," he said.
"1 always was a catcher.
You are more in the game,
not out in the outfield day-
dreaming, but after playing
competitively for a long
time, it was time to move on
with my life and start a fam-
ily and get a job.

"I retired as a Detective
Sergeant with the Quincy
Police Department in 1997
and as a retirement present

I was given a trip to the Red
Sox' fantasy camp. It was
fun and 1 was named MVP
of the camp after hitting
.500 and that experience
kind of got me back into the
competitive baseball spirit.

"The New England Red
Sox asked me to join their
team but 1 said no, but then at
age 72 1 decided to get back
into it and have been play-
ing for them ever since."

The New England Red
Sox is not the only team for
which Laracy is the team's
primary catcher; he also
plays for the Naples (Flor-
ida) Men's Senior Baseball
team between January and
May, the Massachusetts
Warriors in the New Hamp-
shire Men's Senior Baseball
League from May to August
and he travels to Coopef-
stown (New York) at the end
of the summer to play in the
Legends of Baseball League
(a league that has already
awarded Laracy with a Life-
time Achievement Award),
but it is his New England
Red Sox team that he hopes
someone will want to play
for next year.

"We are just looking for
some help," he said about
the prospect of adding
70-and-Over players to any
of his teams, especially his
New England Red Sox. "We
are just looking for some
publicity to get people to
want to play with us.

"Baseball is my sport. I
love playing it and 1 hope
there may be someone else
out there who wants to come
and play."

tion about the New England
Red Sox 70-and-Over team,
which plays in the Roy
Hobbs Timeless (70+) Divi-
sion, visit www.royhobbs.

some Thursday at O'Rourke
Field in Quincy, he'll be
there, will you?

Sun Founder Among QTC
Hall of Fame Inductees

QUINCY'S DICK LARACY played in the first-ever 70-and-Over Baseball World Series in
Fort Myers, Florida back in November. Laracy and his New England Red Sox lost in the cham-
pionship game to the San Diego Silver Foxes, but he was named World Series MVP after bat-
ting ^29 in seven games.

DICK LARACY, pictured here in his full catching gear, is considered by many to be one of, if
not the oldest active catcher in the country. Laracy and his New England Red Sox are currently
looking for 70-and-Over ballplayers to join the team in time for next year's World Series.

HS Winter Sports Season
Starts This Weekend

By JOE REARDON

Former Quincy Sun Pub-
lisher Henry Bosworth joined
a select group with his recent
posthumous induction into
the Quincy Track Qub Hall
of Fame.

Bosworth, who passed
away in February, is one of
just 25 individuals honored
with the local track club's
most prestigious award. He
was honored at the club's Oct .
1 banquet at Lombardo's.

Long-time director Geoff
Hennessy said the honor was
very much deserved.

"Henry was very good to
us at all stages of the pro-

gram. We felt that after he
passed away it was appropri-
ate to induct him. Henry had
a great relationship with the
program. He was wonderful.
Anytime I came into the Sun
to buy an ad or drop some-
thing off, he'd always want
to talk and ask how things
are going."

Noted Boston press pho-
tographer Frank Kelly found-
ed the Quincy Track Qub in
1974. He passed away two
years later and Hennessy
took over at the age of 19.

The club has introduced
hundreds of kids to track and
field over the years. Drawing

between 250-450 members
per summer, aged 5-14, the
grassroots club has been a
launching pad to a boatload
of talent, not only in track
and field but other sports as
well.

Former members include
Olympic bronze medalist in
speed skating at the Lille-
hammer Games, Karen Cash-
man; 10,000-meter Olympian
Kate O'Neill; two NFL play-
ers; three athletes featured
in Sports Illustrated's
"Faces In The Crowd;" 54
Boston Globe All-Scholas-
tics and 28 NCAA/NAIA
All- Americans.

lies."

The Society and other
churches sponsor the "Giv-
ing Tree" with branches
holding the names of chil-
dren and gift wishes but
Lawless said, "Money is
very tight. People don't
have the money to support
it."

John Yazwinski, direc-
tor of Father Bill's/Main-
stream, also, reported "more
working people coming into
the shelter," but Yazwinski
said there's also been an in-
crease in senior residents,
those 60 years and older.
"We can't stop the flow at
the front door," said Yaz-
winski who reported new
visitors at a rate of three or
four a day.

What follows is a list of
some of the agencies and
their needs this season and
year-round. Donors are en-
couraged to call to verify the
changing needs at the agen-
cies.

Germantown
Neighborhood Center
Gifts for teenagers and
new winter coats for chil-
dren and adults, any kind of
food, and all size cash and
check donations are wel-
come now and year-round at
the center, 366 Palmer St.,
Germantown. Additional
information is available at
617-376-1384.

The center serves only
Quincy residents with refer-
rals from school and other
agencies and gift deliveries
are underway right up to
Christmas Eve, according to
Director Kathy Quigley.

Throughout the year, so-
cial workers at the center
help or refer families and
seniors experiencing prob-
lems securing housing, food
or prescriptions and provide
a food pantry throughout the
year.

Over the past year,
the widespread need has
strained and, sometimes,
outstripped the center's re-
sources as evictions, job
losses and hunger strike
more residents.

"We're struggling," re-
ported Quigley, noting the
food pantry had to close
down several times in the
past year. "We ran out and
we had to apologize and tell
them to come back."

The center's food pantry
served 2,768 families and
1,430 seniors and adults in
the past year.

Quigley said the center
participates in the Holiday
Coalition through which lo-
cal agencies share their lists
to avoid duplication. Not all
agencies do.

According to Quigley.
the database helps assure
donors that all of their gifts
and all of their cash dona-
tions are directed properly.

The center seeks extra
help during the holiday sea-
son, but the need is year-
round.

Interfaith Social Services
Volunteers known as
Santa's Helpers make the
Adopt-A-Family program
at Interfaith Social Services
(ISS) a success, but it's out-
side donors who make the
program possible.

ISS is located at 105 Ad-
ams St.

Through Adopt-A-Fam-
ily, interested persons or
families can 'adopt' a family
of two. three or more per-
sons and provide the gifts
for each of the family mem-
bers. The volunteers then
deliver the gifts and baskets
to those families.

The numbers are increas-
ing on a daily basis, accord-
ing to Rick Doane, Execu-
tive Director of ISS.

"Just in the last two
minutes, we got two calls."

Doane said, explaining an
interruption during his in-
terview.

Doane was illustrating
the explosive increase in the
number of individuals and
families m need this season
and efforts by his all -volun-
teer staff to help all.

"We just don't know
where it's going to end."
said Doane, reporting that
the agency's food pantry
served the largest number
(700) at is food pantry in its
6()-year history, "Our food
expenses are up 507r over
last year."

Most of the volunteers
are Quincy residents and
more than 607f of their cli-
ents are from Quincy.

In the hnal tally last year,
friends of ISS adopted 175
households and over 500
children. With two weeks
to go, ISS has a list of 163
households and over 500
children in contrast to the
2007 final figures of 127
households and 400 chil-
dren.

Doane said ISS offers
one-stop help for local fami-
lies and individuals in need
through the food pantry,
counseling and a booming
thrift shop which operates
five days a weeks.

In addition, the agency
provides help for homeless-
ness prevention and a 'ca-
reer clo.set' that offers clients
help in providing a business
wardrobe.

Donations of clean used
clothing and small house-
hold items are welcome at
the center's thnft shop.
Quincy Crisis Center
"We need volunteers to
help us make deliveries on
Dec. 19 through Dec. 24."
said Kathy Garrison of
Quincy Crisis Center, 282
Billings Rd. The telephone
number is 617-847-6967.
Right now, the center's

volunteers are busy prepar
mg the "Help for the Holi-
days" deliveries for Quincv
and nearby South Shore
towns.

Families, friends, church
and youth groups often make
their delivery day a special
occasion for building their
holiday spirit, according
to Garrison who said that
sponsors are also needed to
adopt some children hoping
for special Christmas gifts
The center still needs non-
perishable foods to fill out
the baskets.

Donations may be
dropped off at the center
Monday through Friday
from 9a.m. to 6 p.m.
DOVE
DOVE, the domestic
violence agency and shelter
based in Norfolk County, is
asking supporters to con-
sider adopting one of the
families it serves for the
holidays.

According to Fiona Mc-
Garry. each client was asked
to develop a wish list for her
and her children DOVE
then matches the client with
an individual or business
interested in helping spread
holiday joy.

"The holidays are stress-
ful for many of DOVE's
clients and so staff and vol-
unteers at the agency strive
to make them as special as
they can, but resources are
limited," McGarry said in
formal statement.

DOVE not only offers
emergency shelter to vic-
tims of domestic violence,
but, also, provides such
community-based services
as legal advocacy, individu-
al and group counseling for
its clients.

Volunteers and sponsors
should call 617-770-4065.

J he agency has housed 140
a night all this month, near-
ly 50 more than the number
of regular beds at father
Bill's.

"We have women (sleep-
ing) in the resource room,'
said Yazwinski after de-
scribing male guests on cots
in other makeshift quarters

What's even more trou-
bling for Yazwinski and
other scKial service workers.
"We've got a major housing
problem for families."

What Yazwinski is see-
ing are more families and
more senior citizens. Fami-
lies always get shelter either
at Father Bill's or through
placement by the state, but
the numbers are multiplying
by the day.

Yazwinski said his shel-
ters have a capacity for 82
families while just in the
past month. 30 new fami-
lies signed on due to evic-
tions, foreclosures and loss
of jobs.

In other respects, the
agency has made great
progress in relocating per-
sons due to grants under the
federal Rapid Rehousing
Initiative, according to Yaz-
winski. "We're moving a lot
of people out."

While \eterans are get-
ting additional, if not suf-
ficient help, there's no such

Yazwinski said that the
agency is helping former

Leaders To Man Salvation Army Kettle Today, Friday At City Hall

Cant 'd From Page I
we saw a big increase in
people seeking our help due
to the economy. This year,
during the Christmas sea-
son, we are already seeing a
bit of an increase in people
seeking our help," Doug
Burr said.

"We expect to serve up-
wards of 500 families with
food vouchers, gifts for
children, warm coats and
a variety of other services,
many, specific to a particu-
lar family's situafion. We
often help with rent, utilities
and the like - whatever the
need is, we try to find a way
to fulfill it."

Major Doug Burr says
the Salvafion Army "often
serves as a safety net which
catches people who fall
through the cracks of our
system.

"After they have sought

help through a myriad of re
sources, only to find they are
not 'eligible,' the Salvafion
Army can step in and figure
out some way to help them.
And we are very creative."
he adds.

The community leader
kettle was initiated many
years ago by the late Henry
Bosworth, founder of The
Quincy Sun newspaper and
longtime member of the
Salvafion Army Advisory
Board.

This year, many lead-
ers are coming together to
remember Mr. Bosworth 's
efforts with the Salvation
Army and to help a very
worthy cause.

How to Address Holiday Depression

The holidays can be a
stressful time.

With pressures and re-
sponsibilities coupled with
economic strains, many
find this season may be
overwhelming and even
depressing. The common
misconception that suicide
rates increase during the
holidays may be false, but
Laura Miller, MD, director
of Women's Mental Health
in the Department of Psy-
chiatry at BWH, says there
are a number of factors that
can contribute to feelings of
depression during this time
of year.

Dr. Miller outlines sev-
eral scenarios that can insti-
gate holiday depression, and
some suggestions on how to
handle them:

Scenario: You have sea-
sonal depression: mood that

worsens in fall and winter.

Strategy': Speak to your
doctor about using a thera-
peutic light box in the morn-
ings. Exercise is also a great
way to prevent depression,
including seasonal depres-
sion. Choose enjoyable
ways to increase your physi-
cal activity, but check with
your doctor about how to do
this safely.

Scenario: The holidays
are just too busy and stress-
ful.

Strategy: Schedule plea-
surable events. Planning
in advance for fun, joyful
experiences can help ward
off feeling overwhelmed.
Anything enjoyable counts!
This includes reconnecting
with a friend, taking a walk,
meditating, and exercis-
ing. Of course, stick to your
plan, share your plan with

VOICE
FOR

HEALTH

by Dr. Gabrielle Freedman

Chiropractor

GIVE YOUR BODY A

Chiropractic believes

that, given the chance, the

body has the ability to repair

and properly maintain itself

Central to this belief is the

knowledge that the brain stands

at the head of a vast network

of nerves that exerts control

on virtually every organ in the

body and every bodily process.

In the event that the impulses

along nerve roots are prevented

from traveling to their

designated site, the area served

by them will suffer. Thus, the

chiropractor's primary goal is

to find places along the spinal

column where nerves are

impinged by an obstruction and

relieve the blockage. Once the

nerves are returned to proper

functioning, they can direct the

body to heal itself

Numbness and tingling are
symptoms generally associated

with nerve damage or irritation.
At the FAMILY PRACTICE
OF CHIROPRACTIC,

we provide state-of-the-art
chiropractic care in a warm and
caring environment. We are
educated and trained to help
you with your discomforts.
Chiropractic is a science, an art,
and a philosophy that concerns
itself with the relationship
between the nervous system
and the function (health) of the
body. Call us at 617.472.4220 to
schedule an appointment. We're
located at 112 McGrath Hwy.,
Quincy. Chiropractic may be the
answer to your pain. No matter
where you live in Eastern Mass.,
we can offer you exceptional
chiropractic service.

PS. Chiropractic is a
natural health-promoting

system that does not rely on
drugs or surgery.

a friend or family member
and commit to keeping each
other accountable.

An important way to fit
joyful experiences into an
already busy schedule is to
maintain perspective about
the purpose of holidays,
and eliminate doing things
that are more stressful than
joyful. This might include,
for example, buying some
prepared foods rather than
cooking everything from
scratch.

Scenario: You become
anxious in social situations,
and feel stressed at parties
and large social gatherings.

Strategy: Well in ad-
vance, get a self-help work-
book to learn skills for
conquering social anxiety.
Practice the skills step by
step so you'll feel ready to
enjoy holiday gatherings.

Scenario: You are fi-
nancially strapped and feel
stressed and embarrassed by
not being able to afford the
gifts you would like to give

Strategy: Remind your-
self that people who are
worth pleasing care about
the thoughtfulness of your
gift, not its cost. Give in-
expensive or cost-free gifts
that show your caring, such
as finding a poem some-
one would enjoy, or baking
something.

Scenario: You benefit
from the structure of your
usual routine, and feel iso-
lated, lost or confused with
long stretches of time off
from that routine.

Strategy: Put some struc-
ture into your time off by
continuing to wake up and
go to bed at close to your
usual time, and scheduling
activities, especially fim and
satisfying activities.

Scenario: You have lost
a loved one, and you espe-
cially remember that loss
during holidays.

Strategy: Plan a special

way to remember your loved
one, such as playing the per-
son's favorite music during
a family gathering, or visit-
ing the person's grave with
supportive friends or family
members.

Scenario: You don't
have loved ones or friends
close by to be with during
the holidays.

Strategy: There are lots
of people in the same situa-
tion. Find others who want
company, and plan to cel-
ebrate together. Consider at-
tending a church or commu-
nity-sponsored event geared
for people in this same situ-
ation.

Scenario: You have
emotional conflicts about
religious observance, giv-
ing and receiving, or other
intense feelings brought up
by the holidays.

Strategy: Notice your
feelings, respect them, and
put them into words. Then
decide to address the feel-
ings and conflicts, but not
to let them get in the way of
your "here-and-now" enjoy-
ment of the holidays.

Some people become de-
pressed during the holidays
despite their best efforts to
prevent it. If this happens to
you, please see your doctor,
who can help you to deter-
mine whether you are expe-
riencing clinical depression,
and can help you get the
treatment you need.

tion helps you, it doesn't do
much for me.

Start treatment of your
headache without drugs. Heat
packs to the neck or head might
ease them. If heat doesn't do
the trick, try ice. Massage
sometimes work, especially
neck massage. Get enough
sleep, but not too much. Too
much is as bad as too little.

Popular tension headache
medicines are aspirin and Ty-
lenol (acetaminophen). If they
aren't effective, tablets that
combine them with caffeine
can be. Caffeine enhances
their painkilling properties.
Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin),
naproxen (Naprosyn) and
Ketoprofen (a prescription
drug) have a good batting
average against these head-
aches. Don't overuse medi-
cine. Constant use promotes
constant headaches.

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
My son is almost 3. He
reaches for everything
with his left hand. I want
to train him to use his right
hand. Being left-handed is
such a drag. What are your
thoughts? - G.S.

ANSWER: Who says be-
ing left-handed is a drag? The
10 percent to 15 percent of
the population who happen
to be left-handed adjust to it
without any great physical or
psychological trauma. Leon-
ardo da Vinci, Pablo Picasso,
J.S. Bach and Sandy Koufax
were lefties. They did all
right for themselves.

I'd let your son accept

what nature has dealt him.

Tension Headaches

Are Most

Common Kind

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I went to the doctor because
of headaches. On examin-
ing my eyes, she discovered
that my pupils don't con-
strict and dilate. She sent
me to an eye doctor. He
said I have an Adie's pupil.
Is this a disease or a syn-
drome? Can this be causing
my headaches? He told me
it was nothing.

My headaches feel like
there's a tight cap on my
head. Please enlighten me
on these things. - GS.

ANSWER: An Adie's
(AID-ease) pupil is one that is
slightly larger than the other
pupil and it narrows very slow-
ly when a bright light is shined
on it. It's not an indication of
illness and has nothing to do
with your headaches. If other
signs are present, like a loss of
the knee-jerk reflex when the
knee tendon is struck with a
rubber hammer, then you call
the mix Adie's syndrome.

Your headaches fit the
description of tension head-
aches, the most common kind
of headache. People who
have them say they feel like
a tight band encircles their
head or that a weight is on
their head or that their head
is squeezed or, as you say,
that they are wearing a tight
cap. Pain is felt on both sides
of the head, and rarely is it
throbbing pain, as it is with
many other headaches. The
pain lasts from half an hour
to seven days.

These headaches are
called tension headaches be-
cause at one time they were
believed to result from con-
traction of the scalp muscle.
Now the explanation is that
innocent brain signals are
misinterpreted by the brain as
oain signals. If that exolana-

A Thoi/ght

Of all God's gifts to man, laughter is one
of the most subtle and is one of the most
precious. It has neither nationality nor
religion. As an equalizer, it has no equal.
Even science which can do so many things
cannot teach us to laugh. It has been said
SCOTT DEWARE that mirth is from God, duUness from the
devil. When we laugh we agree with God that all is good. . .

It would be a pretty inhuman world without laughter, but it
would be a pretty frivolous world without serious thought, medita-
tion and occasional weeping. Yes, one of the most wonderful gifts
God has given man is the gift of humor; the ability to laugh and to
see the fiuuiy side of things.

Humor can take the antagonism out of differences. It can pro-
mote a congenial atmosphere. It opens the line of communication
and breaks down barriers. Some people can't express humor even
though they appreciate it, just as some people appreciate good music
even though they can't carry a tune. . .

Laughter is not the final solution to life's problems, but it eases
many a difficult situation. A very wise person once commented that
the most utterly lost of all days, is that in which you have not once
laughed . . . Have you had your laugh today?.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Make your holiday preparations
one step at a time in order to
avoid being overwhelmed and
leaving things undone. That
confusing family situation con-
tinues to work itself out.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
Ease this year's holiday money
pressures by letting your thrifty
side guide you as you look for
those perfect gifts that typically
reflect your good taste and love
of beauty.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
You'll have a good handle on
potential holiday problems if
you delegate tasks to family
members, friends or co-workers
- most of whom will be more
than happy to help out.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Right now you are especially
vulnerable to holiday scams that
seek to take advantage of your
generosity. Best advice: Check
them out before you send out
your checks.

LEO (July 23 to August 22) The
upcoming holiday season gives
the Big Cat much to purr about.
Relationships grow stronger,
and new opportunities loom on
the horizon, just waiting to be
pounced on.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) A changing situa-
tion brings conflicting advice
about how to go forward with
your holiday plans. Your best
bet: Make the decision you feel
most comfortable with.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) Holiday plans get back
on track after some confusion

alx>ut the direction you expect-
ed to take. A potentially trouble-
some money matter needs your
immediate attention.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 2 1 ) Your holiday prepa
rations are on track. But you
need to confront a personal situ-
ation while you can still keep it
from overwhelming everything
else.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) Tight fi-
nancial matters ease a bit during
this holiday season. But the sa-
gacious Sagittarian is well-ad-
vised to keep a tight hold on the
reins while shopping for gifts.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Don't put off
making decisions about this
year's holiday celebrations,
despite the negative comments
you've been getting from sev-
eral quarters. Do it NOW!

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) The holidays will
bring new friends and new op-
portunities . Meanwhi le , be care-
ful to use your energy wisely as
you go about making holiday
preparations.

PISCES ( February 19 to March
20) There's good news coming
from a most unlikely source.
And it could turn out to be one
of the best holiday gifts you
have had in years. Remember
to stay positive.

BORN THIS WEEK: You are

respected for your honesty and
loyalty. You make friends slow-
ly - but with rare exceptions,
they're in your life forever.

The extended COBRA
Continuation Protection
Act of 2009 extends by six
months a provision from the
American Recovery and Re-
investment Act to provide
funding to cover 65 percent
of health insurance premi-
ums to individuals eligible
for COBRA benefits who
have been involuntarily ter-
minated during the econom-
ic recession.

The bill extends COBRA
benefits in three main ways.
First, it extends by 6 months
- from 9 to 15 months -
the total allowable time an
unemployed worker can
receive COBRA premium
assistance. This will allow
workers who enrolled in the
program in February to con-
tinue on until at least next
May. Second, it extends
this assistance to individu-
als who are involimtarily
terminated between Jan. 1
and June 30, 2010. Third, it
extends eligibility for tradi-
tional COBRA coverage an
additional 6 months, from
18 to 24 months, for those
terminated at the beginning
of the economic recession in
2008.

No extended COBRA
premium assistance or ex-
tended COBRA benefits
would extend beyond Dec.
31,2010.

ENJOYING MANET COMMUNITY Health Center's recent 30th anniversary auction and din-
ner are (from left): Alicia Gardner, president of Manet's Board of Directors; Joseph Kennedy
III, and Mrs. Maureen Ayers.

At 2 1/2-Hour Public Hearing

Charter School Proposal
Criticism Outweighs Praise

By JOE REARDON

The proponents hailed it as an
alternative to public schools with
its diversity and multi-cultural ac-
ademics. Opponents argued that it
offered nothmg that wasn't avail-
able in the Quincy Public Schools
and its move forward would drain
funding for Quincy 's schools.

The two sides made their com-
ments known regarding the pro-
posal for the Hanlin International

Academy Charter School in a
heated, 2-1/2 hour hearing Mon-
day at the Thomas Crane Public
Library.

Opponents of the proposal fear
it would sap funds from the $4.5
million of state aid. The proposal
calls for the sixth- 1 2'^ grade Amer-
ican-Asian charter school to be
open in Sept. 2011 with a class
of 88 sixth and seventh grade stu-
dents enrolled by a lottery system.

It will eventually grow to a maxi-
mum of 308 students.

Currently, there are 62 charter
schools in Massachusetts, made up
of 55 Commonwealth and seven
Horace Mann schools. At the start
of the 2009-2010 school year, the
waiting list for the schools is at
24.066. The state board of educa-
tion is slated to vote on the pro-
posal in February.

then split on plans for a
replacement with Finance

Funeral Mass Saturday

Council Meeting In
Memory Of Olin Taylor

June 1 was "Olin A.
laylor Day" in Quincy and
c<uinci!U)rs rcmenibcred
that day tondly when they
dedicated Monday s meet-
ing to Mi. layhir's memory
after learning of his death
earlier in the day.

Ward 2 Councillor r3an-
iel Raymondi praised Mr.
Taylor's long-term contri-
butions to the city, particu-
larly his work in preserving
veterans' memorials as did
Mayor Thomas Koch.

In remembering Mr.
Taylor, Koch said, "He was
a true gentleman, a public
servant by serving on the
Conservation Commission
and the Library Trustees
and serving his fellow vet-
erans over the years.

"He took a very special
interest in our deceased
veterans by repairing hun-
dreds of grave markers
over the years.

"Our city is a better
place because of Olin Tay-
lor. We extend our deepest
sympathy to his wife and
family."

The 92-year-old Worid
War II veteran served as
a lieutenant in the United
States Army and never
forgot America's other vet-
erans. He visited them in
hospitals, drove them to
medical appointments, vol-
unteered at Veterans' Hos-

pitals, and cared for their
graves.

As Koch and Raymon-
di and hundreds of others
knew, Mr. Taylor helped
to maintain and repair the
3, 000 veterans markers at
graves in Quincy even into
early last summer.

At the June ceremony
in council chambers, Ray-
mondi noted that he was
still taking care of the vet-
erans' memorials.

In 1996, Mr. Taylor was
honored as The Quincy
Sun's Citizen of the Year.

A native of Texas, Mr.
Taylor moved to Quincy
after his discharge from the
Army and lived here for
65 years. He and his wife,
Frances I. (Hunt) Taylor,
were married 64 years.

A funeral Mass will be
celebrated Saturday at 10
a.m. in Saint John the Bap-
tist Church, Quincy Center.

Mr. Taylor's obituary

Now . . . Not Showing:
A Bigger Billboard

The new movie, "2012,"
creates cataclysmic disaster
for the earth but an ad for
the movie on the West Quin-
cy billboard raised quite a
bit of real dust recently as
reported by Ward 4 Council-
lor-Elect Brian Palmucci.

His Ward 4 constituents
reported that the owners
of billboard increased the
height of the billboard to
accommodate an ad for the

movie "2012"

The added eight-foot
height didn't last long after
Building Inspector Jay Duca
notified Boston Outdoor
Advertising they could face
$1,000 a day fine if they
didn't restore the billboard
to the original height.

Duca said the company
acted immediately on re-
ceipt of his notice.

Gemologist

BY Jeffrey M. Bertman

GRADUATE GEMOLOGIST

A CELEBRATION OF BIRTH

Children, in particular,
experience a sense of discovery
upon receiving birthstone jewelry
and learning that their birth month
is asscKiated with a specific
gemstone. Their interest is sure to
heighten further upon finding out
that a birthstone exerts influence
on those who wear it. This idea
most likely stems from the ancient
belief that gems came to earth
from the heavens. In more modem
times, the custom of wearing
birthstone jewelry originated in
1 8th-century Poland and has since
spread throughout the world.
While some cultures associate
gems with the signs of the zodiac,
others ascribe particular gems
to certain months of the year.

/9»«

Either way, birthstone jewelry is a
meaningful birthday gift.

Start your own family tradition
by giving the gift of birthstone
jewelry to the next newborn in your
family. At Rogers Jewelry, we have
a tradition of giving our customers
only the finest in friendly, personal,
knowledgeable service as well as
custom jewelry of exquisite design
and workmanship. In fact, many
in the Quincy area tell us that no
one comes close to providing what
we do. For birthstone jewelry

New QHS Will Make City 'The Proudest School System'

New Building Expected
To Open Next September

By JOE REARDON

The contrast of walking
down the corridor from the
old Quincy High and into
the completed state-ot-the
art Science and Math wing
is not only enormous on an
aesthetic level, but as Prin-
cipal Frank Santoro points
out, on an emotional one as
well.

It should reach a fever
pitch as the school year goes
on.

"The kids are excited
now," said Santoro. "When
you walk into the new wing,
there's a whole new de-
meanor of excitement."

With winter fast ap-
proaching, the $126 million
project, which has been ban-
tered about for years, is on
budget and expected to be
completed when the weath-
er turns warm again in June
at the end of the school year.
The state has footed $72
million of the bill with the
city carrying $54 million.

The finished product will
be regarded by many as the
blueprint for high school
construction for years to
come. Tours of the com-
pleted Science/Technology/
Engineering/Math Academy
have already been given to
members of the public. And
the 150 seats in the Adams
Lecture Hall have been filled
with students at numerous
assemblies.

Some of the featured guest
speakers include Holocaust
survivor Ries Vanderpol,
Doug Gutro of the Environ-
mental Protection Agency
and John Adams descendent
Peter Boylston Adams, who
spoke at the halls dedica
tion in September.

"Well be quite a place
and be visited by many,"
Santoro said. "We are now."
Representatives of Fish-
man Construction and Gil-
bane Building Company,
along with Santoro and
School Superintendent

Richard DeCristofaro gave
a positive update i)f the proj-
ect at Monday's City Coun-
cil meeting.

Jim Driscoll of Gil bane
said there are currently 1 20-
140 workers on site per day
but that number is expected
to increase when the sub-
contractors, including paint-
ers and tile workers, begin
the finish work. Driscoll
told the councillors that the
project was in compliance
of the Responsible Employ-
er Ordinance.

Santoro said work on
the new high school hadn't
disrupted the school day for
students or teachers. "There
has been very little disrup-
tion in education," he said.
"We're excited to see a lot
of dreams come true."

Meet Margaret Laforest; More Candidates Eye Potential Open Seats

LAFOREST

Tim Cahill couldn't do it. Neither did Frank McCauley or
the late Paul Harold.

But Margaret Laforest did.

Cahill, McCauley and Harold are all
household names in Quincy with impres-
sive public service careers. But they all
lost their first campaigns.

But not Laforest. She made a suc-
cessful political debut when she won the
Ward 1 council seat in last November's
city election.

Laforest has already made political
history here. She'll become the first wom-
an to serve as Ward 1 councillor when she
is sworn in Monday, Jan. 4 at inauguration ceremonies at
North Quincy High School.

She's also just the fifth woman to be elected a Quincy
city councillor.

We recently sat down with Margaret as she prepares to
represent Ward 1 on the City Council .

Here's some biographical background on the lifelong
Quincy resident and her thoughts on a myriad of subjects.

Name: Margaret (McLean) Laforest

Age: 34

Family: Margaret and her husband Jeff, a Verizon union
employee, are the parents of two daughters: Kelsey and
Krista who are the sixth generation of Margaret's family to
live in Houghs Neck.

Education: Atherton Hough, Sacred Heart, Broad Mead-
ows, Quincy High (graduated with distinction). University
of Miami Environmental Science Major, Boston University
Project Management Program graduate, Associates Degree
(business major) Magna cum laude, Eastern Nazarene Col-
lege

Address: 236 Rock Island Rd.

Question: Who or what motivated you to become po-
litically active?

Answer: When I was a child, my mother, Betty McLean,
was active in local politics. I was her constant companion
when she volunteered to hold signs, do literature drops or
attend political events. During her work as a campaign
manager for a Ward One Council Candidate in the 1980's,
it became clear to me that some day I would run for this of-
fice. During my campaign, I similarly thought it important
to have kids involved in my campaign. I think introducing
kids to politics and engaging them civically is very impor-
tant as it shows them a responsibility to society and teaches
a love for our City.

You will become just the fifth woman - and the first
from Ward One - to serve as a city councillor in the city's
121-year history. What does that mean to you?

This summer I received a full scholarship to the WTiite
House Project, a training program for women interested in
leading a polifical life. The information and experiences
shared by these women are invaluable to me. As a mother
of two daughters, I feel it's imperative that they witness di-
versity and feel no limitations when pursuing their future
careers.

What did you learn about yourself as a candidate for
ward councilor?

WTiile deciding to run for the City Council, I knew it
would have a tremendous impact on my family. While I
knew what I wanted to do, I needed to seriously consider if
being an elected official was the right thing for my family.
Many who are close to me, cautioned me. I learned that as

involved as you are politically, it's different being the candi-
date and there's no way to explain the demands on you and
your family. With that, we decided that it was time to follow
my dream and run for public office.

Looking back at the worries, 1 have to say while they
were all justified, this campaign strengthened my family and
friendships. My husband, Jeff, has had only minimal politi-
cal experience prior to this campaign, yet each day would
keep me focused asking what my goals were for the day,
where 1 needed to be, and then made sure things were run-
ning smoothly on the home front, and of course that all the
campaign signs were in tact.

We are lucky to have great friends who helped carpool
the girls to their activities. With six weeks left in the cam-
paign, my mother was hospitalized. Being an only child,
her health care needed to be the top priority for our family. I
am a practicing Catholic, who's faith is strong, and with this
felt the saying God only gives you what you can handle was
a statement to be challenged. I knew if I believed, we'd get
through this, and while I didn't need anything else on my
plate, I learned how strong a person 1 am and with the sup-
port of family and friends you can handle whatever comes
my way.

People will come to your aid in ways you could nev-
er ask. When you have good friends and neighbors those
needs are met without question.

How do you perceive your role as an elected official
in Quincy?

I am honored to serve as the Ward 1 councillor and see
myself as the constituent representative looking out for and
monitoring the needs of Ward One. I will be actively seek-
ing input from residents and businesses and will consistently
keep them apprised of matters before the Council.

You are succeeding longtime Councillor Leo Kelly.
What has Leo meant to Ward 1?

The Ward 1 community is grateful to Leo for his de-
cades of service. Leo's passion for nature, conservation and
particularly the beaches, is his legacy to our city. Leo has
kindly offered to help me learn the ropes and I look forward
to learning from his experiences.

What do you want all the residents of Ward 1 to know
about you as their ward councillor?

The most important role of the ward councilor is constit-
uent services. I want the residents to know that they should
contact me with their concerns. Don't ask yourself if it's
worth calling about, if you're thinking about it, it's worth
it.

Ward 1 is comprised of great neighborhoods that have
deep pride and community activism. It represents a large
geographic area and I want to be in tune with what's impact-
ing each neighborhood.

To do that, I will need input from constituents, to be able
to do my job well. I am employed part time and have a flex-
ible work schedule. So, I am accessible during the day and
evening. Call my home at 617-471-1806 or email me at
ml @ margaretlaforest .com at your convenience.

What goals do you hope to accomplish during your
first term?

There are so many issues facing Ward 1 and Quincy
overall , but the common theme I heard on the campaign trail
is communication. Residents want to be kept informed of
what's going on 4n the city and what city issues they need
to be aware of.

While campaigning, I developed an email list of 800-»-
Ward 1 residents, and I encourage others to sign up for my
e-communication newsletter via my website www.Marga-
retLaforest.com

I also utilize social media, such as Facebook, Linkedin
and Twitter, which people are welcome to join me there as
well.

8. Finish this sentence: "The most important piece of
political advice ever received was:

While people may have reason to support your opponent,
know that they may be with you the next time."

From former Mayor Frank McCauley.

KEATING

THE LIST OF potential candidates for next year's state
election continues to grow.

City Councillor John Keenan says he
will definitely seek an open state senate
seat if Michael Morrissey runs for Nor-
folk County District Attomey.

"If the Norfolk and Plymouth Senate
seat becomes available, 1 will seek the
seat," Keenan said Monday. "Many peo-
ple have asked me to run, and after con-
sidering the matter with my family, I have
made my decision."

Keenan has served as a councillor at-large since 2003.
On the council he has served since 2004 as chairman of the
Finance Committee.

Since 2001, Keenan has worked as the executive direc-
tor of the Norfolk County Retirement System. The system's
membership comes from 41 governmental units (towns,
agencies and authorities throughout Norfolk County, in-
cluding the town of Holbrook.)

The Norfolk and Plymouth Senate District includes the
City of Quincy, eight precincts in Braintree, and the towns
of Abington, Holbrook and Rockland.

Morrissey 's decision to run for Norfolk County DA.
hinges on whether Martha Coakley wins the U.S. Senate
seat in the special election Jan. 19 and if Norfolk County
D.A. William Keating vacates his seat to run for attomey
general. The latter looks like a sure thing.

Keating told the Sun last week he would run for attomey
general regardless of who is appointed
to fill Coakley 's seat (if she defeats Sen.
Scott Brown Jan. 19). The Massachusetts
House and Senate would convene and elect
a replacement for Coakley if she wins the
U.S. Senate race. That replacement would
fill out Coakley 's A. G. term which expires
at the end of next year. So, Keating would
campaign against any replacement in an
effort to win his own four-year attorney
general term next fall.
Another declared candidate for an open Senate seat is
Rep. Steve Tobin. He too says he will certainly nm for Mor-
rissey's open Senate seat.

That, of course, would open Tobin's
representative seat in the 2nd Norfolk
District.

Joe Keegan of Merrymount says he
will definitely seek Tobin's state repre-
sentative seat if the seat opens up. Kee-
gan, a former Quincy police officer, is an
attomey with a Quincy Center law office.
He ran for Ward 1 councillor in 2(X)3 but
bowed to Leo Kelly in the final election
by 268 votes. (Kelly polled 1 ,901 votes to
Keegan's 1,633).

Another elected of^cial who is strongly considering a
run for Tobin's seat is School Committee-
woman Elaine Dwyer. Dwyer, an Adams
Shore resident, has served on the school
committee since 2002 when she was ap-
pointed by a joint convention of the City
Council and School Committee to fill Wil-
liam Phelan's unexpired term after Phelan
was elected mayor in 2001 . She was elect-
ed to four-term terms in 2003 and 2007.

Dwyer also said she will not be seek-
ing re-election to the School Conmiittee
when her current term is up in 201 1 .

And Ward 1 Councillor Leo Kelly of
Houghs Neck, who did not seek re-elec-
tion this fall and will be stepping down
officially Jan. 4, says he too has some
interest in Tobin's state representative
seat.

The 2nd Norfolk District - which
Tobin represents - includes precincts in
four of the city's six wards. But Ward 1
- which is primarily Houghs Neck, Mer-
rymount, Adams Sore and Germantown - is the only ward
entirely in that district. The other precincts in the district are
Ward 3 Precincts 1 , 2 and 5; Ward 4 Precincts 2 and 4: and
Ward 5 Precincts 1 , 3 and 4.

Scenes From Yesterday

THIS IS A real photo postcard reproduction showing
Quincy Center from Granite Street in the foreground
south down Hancock Street towards School Street. Last
minute Christmas shopping is nothing new; this picture
was taken at 3:30 p.m. Christmas Eve in 1938; 20 years
before this became known as Shopperstown. On the
right, Thorn McCan's shoe store had just moved up the
street to this corner where it stayed for over 50 years In
1938, they had over 650 stores across the country. Today
they are all closed, but shoes are still sold under that

brand name. Further down on the right were Carroll's
Cut Rate Store and the Lincoln, Fanny Farmer and
Kresge Stores. Across Hancock Street on the left were
A&Pand First National grocery stores and the Sanborn
& Damon's hardware store. The vertical sign was Mor-
gan's Furniture Store. You can't see them in this picture,
but there's nothing new about beauty parlors, either; in
1938, there were 28 beauty parlors in Quincy Center. To

Giving Thanks For Community Meal Assistance

Gandhi once said, "The
best way to find yourself is
to lose yourself in the ser-
vice of others."

The staff and students at
the Quincy High School Vo-
cational Culinary Arts Pro-
gram certainly found them-
selves pressed into service
on behalf of those served by
Father Bill's & MainSpring,
a non-profit dedicated to
ending homelessness across
Southeastern, Massachu-
setts.

Chefs Mark Kelly and
Patrick Noe, and more than
24 students worked tire-
lessly a few days before the
holiday to prepare almost
60 turkeys in their state-of-
the-art kitchen at President's
Cafe at Quincy High School
(QHS). The turkeys were
then served to more 200
guests at the annual commu-
nity meal at Christ Church,
Quincy on Thanksgiving
Day.

"This was a great les-

son in multi -tasking for the
students, while benefitting
the community," said Keith
Segalla, coordinator of the
program. The staff at QHS
rearranged their holiday
schedule to accommodate
our request for help. The
new kitchen, part of phase
one of the new QHS, was
instrumental in helping us
manage the volume of tur-
keys we had to prepare.

The turkeys were dressed
to perfection, and bright-

ened the holiday for so
many. With 60 volunteers on
hand to serve the meal, this
event was a great example
of a community coming to-
gether to help those in need.
The partnership of our vol-
unteers and of Quincy High
School has been invaluable.
Thank you to everyone
who participated and we
look forward to seeing you
next year!

Animal Shelter would like
to thank everyone who at-
tended the recent Holiday
Bazaar we held on Saturday,
December 5*^ at the Bryan
VFW Post. This was the
first time we held a bazaar
of this size outside the Shel-
ter and it proved to be a ter-
rific idea.

People enjoyed baked
goods, raffle prizes and the
various sale items offered
by local vendors. The event
also gave us the opportuni-
ty to show off some of our
adoptable kittens and cats.

While attendees were
enjoying the Bazaar at the
VFW, just down the road,
the Shelter opened its door
to the public after having
been closed for 3 months
due to a ringworm outbreak
in August. Visitors met the

adoptable adult cats and
dogs who reside at the Shel-
ter while waiting to go to
their forever home.

At the end of the day, we
found that we had raised
over $2400 in sales and do-
nations. The money will go
towards paying the $10,000
bill we incurred in medical

and related costs while we
were closed. In addition to
the money raised, we also
found homes for 8 of our
cats and kittens and dogs -
which is the best news of
all.

This special time of year
seems to bring out the best
in people and it was very

evident last Saturday. Happy
Holidays from everyone at
the the Quincy Animal Shel-
ter (2 legged and 4 legged).

the Shelter visit us at quin-
cy animal shelter.org.

Lombardo's recently
hosted one of the premiere
holiday gatherings on the
South Shore, the 12th An-
nual Feed the Hungry Gala
Fundraiser to benefit Inter-
faith Social Services.

The event brought in
over $75,000 to help impov-
erished families, tying last
year's tally of $75,000.

"It is incredible that in
this economy the event did
so well," said Interfaith Ex-
ecutive Director Rick Do-
ane.

"We have all been plan-
ning and praying that things
would go well because de-
mand has been so high for
our services. This Thanks-
giving we served 43 percent
more people than last year.

"The recession has hit
many families hard and as
the holidays approach they
are feeling the strain more
than ever and we are trying
to help them cope. In the
past few months we have
seen thousands of families
come through our doors ask-
ing for help.

"We are grateful to the
hundreds of party goers that
helped make this event so
successful, and allowed us
to continue feeding, cloth-
ing and assisting the needy
on the South Shore," Doane
added.

Participants enjoyed en-
tertairmient from a Motown
tribute band, an elegant din-
ner, raffles, games, silent
auctions and a live auction.
Bidders fought over items
such as tickets to the Ameri-
can Idol season finale, an

African safari , Patriots Tick-
ets, amongst other fabulous
items.

The event was co-chaired
by Paula Lombardo-Colia

Tom Williams. Attendees
included Bob Rivers, presi-
dent of Eastern Bank; Jay
Kennedy of Kennedy Car-
pet Cleaners, Inc.; Ms. Mas-

Taylor Doherty Helps Rebuild
Hurricane-Hit Area Of New Orleans

Courtney Ward Wed To David Eaton

Taylor Doherty, a junior
at Fontbonne Academy and
Quincy resident, spent five
days in New Orleans last
month helping to revital-
ize the area which is still
recovering from Hurricane
Katrina.

As part of the National
Student Leadership Confer-
ence, Doherty flew to New
Orleans and spent Nov. 8 to
13 renovating and rebuild-
ing a home and a church
in the Lower 9th Ward and
Saint Bernard's Parish.

Taylor worked side by
side with a team of about
a dozen peers at each site,
completing tasks ranging
from pamting and remod-
eling to using a machete to
clear an area.

"It was a great learning
experience for me. 1 really
enjoyed working as a team
with the other students,"
Taylor .said.

The National Student
Leadership Conference fos-

ing team exercises and of-
fering talks on the various
facets of leadership given

ship trainer who facilitated
the workshops.

The trip was filled with
many moving stories from
hurricane survivors.

"We met a man who had
lost his mother and grand-
daughter, who told us how
he survived," Taylor said.

"It was so sad. Many
people said, 'We thought
everyone forgot about us.'"

A mission trip such as
this has lasting value for ev-

eryone involved.

Taylor is studying hard
at Fontbonne Academy and
ju.st recently was inducted
into the National Honor
Society. She hopes to pe-
ruse studies in medicine.
"I would love a career that
helps others," she adds.

Fontbonne Academy is

Mary's Jell-O Ice Cream Parfait

I am blessed lo have many first cousins,
and recently v\ e had a Christmas Party w here
12 of us gathered.

Bach one ot us had to bring an appetizer and
dessert. And I was so e.xcited when 1 tasted
a strawberry, ice cream combination that 1
decided to use it today tor my recipe hoping
you will enjoy it as much as we all did.

It looks just like Christmas with the two
colors

In fact, I am going to make it for my
Christmas dessert instead of the usual pies, it
IS the easiest dessert that 1 have ever seen or
printed in the newspaper, so here goes. Our
"adopted cousin" Mary brought it in.

ICE CREAM, JELL-O PARFAIT
4 packages strawberry jell-0
4 cups hot water

Vz gallon vanilla ice cream

I package of whipped cream (TRIJ whip

is the best)

And a bundt pan

Boil the water. Add thejell-o and mix until
blended. Slowly add the half-gallon of vanilla
ice cream. Blend it well. Pour into the bundt
pan and refrigerate until done (takes as long
as if it were jell-o)

When ready to serve, tip the pan over
and surprise it is a pretty dark pink mound.
Then when you add the cream in the middle
of the mound... it slices like a cake... isn't
that easy?

Strawberries look nice around the dish.
And delicious! Merry Christmas!

PS. Any color Jell-0 can be used. Green
would look nice also.

Quincy High Competes
In 5th Academic Decathlon

Quincy High School
was among the 32 schools
that recently participated at
Ashland High School in the
Massachusetts combined
large-and-small-school re-
gional scrimmage in prepa-
ration for the 2010 United
States Academic Decathlon.

Local, regional and state
competitions can lead to
the national finals which
this academic year will take
place in Omaha, Nebraska
in April.

"This year our team
brought home medals for
the first time," Coach Eve-
lyn Ryan said. "We finished
in 8th place, but only the
first six large school teams
made it to states."

The U.S Academic De-
cathlon was created to
provide opportunities for
students to experience the
challenges of rigorous team
and individual competition.

Each team competes in
ten events — economics.

Ryan said. "The students

preparation for competition.
There's really no way to
lose taking part in an event

Charter School Proposal Criticism Outweighs Praise

Cont d From Puj^c I

According to the school's
mission statement, it will
meet academic demands of
Quincy students by provid-
ing "unique multicultural
learning experience that
will open new dcwrs of op-
portunity and success for
Quincy 's children "

Senator Michael Mor-
rissey was the first of more
than two dozen people who
said they were "strongly op-
posed" to the charter school.
Morrissey said there was no
pressing need for a char-
ter school in the city and
it would hurt funding for
Quincy 's schools.

He praised Quincy 's
teachers for their excellence
in the classroom. He point-
ed out that Business Week
magazine recently named
Quincy as the best place to
live in the Commonwealth
and much of the reason is
because of the school sys-
tem.

"A charter is only going
to drain funds," Morrissey
said. "It's a program that is
unproven and unnecessary."

School committee mem-
ber Nick Puleo wrote to the
board of the Department of
Elementary and Secondary
Education (DESE) request-
ing the denial of the pro-
posal, citing that the school
committee and Quincy City
Council adopted a resolu-
tion opposing the school.

Puleo said the applica-
tion should be denied be-
cause it violates a number
of state and federal laws.
The curriculum, too, en-
dorsed Confucian religious
tradition of the Far East.
"This curriculum would in
no way represent a balance
of international or religious
thought," Puleo said.

Coordinator of Early
Childhood Education, Edith
Hughes, said she was "ap-
palled by the application's
vagueness," and said it
would have been handed
back to her by the literacy
department.

School Committee mem-
ber Anne Mahoney found
the "most disturbing" aspect
of the proposal was that no-
where did it show how they
would improve opportuni-
ties for the children. She
criticized the application
for giving data that is not
accurately represented and
doesn't give the complete
picture.

Parents, too, came out to
defend and oppose the char-
ter school proposal. Chris
Meyers, whose two chil-
dren graduated from Quincy
High School, said his chil-
dren "embraced education"
and much of the reason
was because of the excel-
lent teachers in the schools.
Quincy schools, he said,
give every child the chance
to be a great student. Mey-
ers believes there is a need
for charter schools in towns
other than Quincy.

"If this charter school
wants to of)en up, go find a
place where it's needed."

John Tong said his four
children received a tre-
mendous education in the
Quincy school system and
doesn't believe the charter
school is a "silver bullet" to
solve the problems schools
are facing.

Suzanne Lambert,

though, said the Quincy
schools didn't serve chil-
dren well. "They don't cater
to a lot of variety," she said.
Lambert said her child's
love for learning was de-
stroyed in the city's public
schools. And while there are
a lot of excellent teachers in
the school system, there is
also a lot of "dead wood."

"There's an uneven qual-
ity of teachers," Lambert
said. "We're talking about
an addifional school in
Quincy."

Tina Markarian, an ELL
teacher at the Atlantic Mid-
dle School, told the board
that 99-percent of her stu-
dents are of Asian descent
and they learned very little
English in China. "They

ARE YOU PAYING TOO MUCH FOR AUTO INSURANCE?

Cell phones have changed the
way we communicate. Unfortunate-
ly, talking on a cell phone or hands-
free cell phone can compromise a
driver's ability to avoid an accident.
No one plans to get into an accident.
Whether you are hit by another car
or cause an accident, it is comfort-
ing to know that you have auto in-
surance. At JAMES J. SULUVAN
INSURANCE AGENCY, we offer
coverage from 9 auto insurance
carriers for cars, trucks, SUVs,
and motorcycles, and can save
you up to 15%. Our staff provides
competitively priced proposals for
your consideration and courteous,
efficient service and claim process-
ing. Please call us at 800-818-8600
to schedule a consultation and let's
compare premiums. We are located
at 151 Hancock Street. Happy holi-
day season!

If you think that a hands-free
ceil phone is safer to use than a
hand-held model, think again.
A recent study placed drivers in
driving simulators and asked them
to brake in response to brake lights
in the vehicle ahead of them. When
drivers were asked to perform
other simple tasks (pressing a
button or saying a word aloud),
simultaneously, the drivers braked
more slowly. On average, the slower
response time translated to 16 added
feet of stopping distance in a vehicle
going 65 mph. The delays were the
same whether the drivers performed
tasks requiring visual or audio input
or vocal or manual responses In
short, they could not look, listen,
and respond at the same time.

NOTE: Even a conversation with
a passenger is enough of a distraction
to drivers to present a safet\ issue.

Ihirty-five ol Markar
ian's students participated in
the school play where Eng-
lish was spoken. She credit-
ed the ELL department and
its strong staff.

The ELL department
head, Beth Hallet, said the
program is a strong one and
the Hani in proposal shows
little time devoted to ELL.
"What can your school do
better than Quincy public
schools?" she asked.

Hanlin founding mem-
ber Ryan Daniels said the
charter school's success or
failure would be determined
in five years. "I like the fact
that the charter schools are
accountable for their ac-
tions," Daniels said.

Michael Ellis, the Eng-
lish Department head at

Quincy High School, said
thai 25 percent of LLL stu-
dents pass the HLL test the
first time they take it, an
impressive score, given that
the test IS taken after just
one year of English.

Ellis believed it was
clear there were a si/eable
percentage of people in at
tendance who were opposed
to the sch(M)l. "When youre
standing in front of a dead
horse, there's no reason to
beat it." he said.

One of the school's
founding members. Sean
Carpenter, pointed to John
Quincy Adams and how he
sought out a diverse educa-
tion by traveling to Europe.
Carpenter stressed that the
board needed to look at the
diversity of the application
and support it.

"This is an age of change

and we have to t.iii[)i;icc
change," he said

Ward 3 City Councilor
Kevin Coughlin attirmcd
his opposition as a city ot

three kids graduated from

he said

Quincv Cit\ Council-
lor At-Largc John Kecnan
was afraid the students in
the Quincy schools would
be the ones who suffer if
the charter school proposal
went through A lot of the
budget cuts could be across
the board and the public
schools would be further
weakened with the charter
school drawing from their
funds.

"They would be asked
to bear an unfair burden."
Keenan said.

Maura Icnaylia the I)i

proposal and opposition to

Public Support For $10,000 Grant

Gift Ideas That Express Love
And Protect Loved Ones

Here's an article previ-
ously printed while I value
its timeless content. While
I wouldn't offer a fire ex-
tinguisher for example, as
a top tier gift for my wife
during this holiday season,
it could make for a practical
stocking stuffer if the stock-
ing is large enough.

1 believe that each gift
suggested below, expresses
concern for another's wel-
fare and well-being. There-
fore, if lost for an original
Christmas gift idea this year,
here are some local fire pre-
vention bureau suggestions
for gifts for loved ones who
are homeowners, tenants or
students living in off cam-
pus housing:

Battery operated single
stage smoke detectors situ-
ated on every level of habi-
tation can offer early notifi-
cation of a smoke condition
within that loved one's resi-
dence. Rest assured your
thought filled gift will help
keep them protected in your
absence.

Having working smoke
detectors within a residence
can double one's chances of
survival while the intent of
the gift expressers your con-
cern for the ongoing welfare
of another or others as well .

With these winter months
upon us, a carbon monox-
ide detector on every habit-
able level of a residence can
detect the presence of car-
bon monoxide, an asphyxi-
ate gas which can be gener-
ated 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 pres-
ence of carbon monoxide
from a malfunctioning unit
or blocked flue. It's another
gift idea to express your
concern while doing some-
thing about it.

A properly placed fire
extinguisher is a good first
aid tool against small fires
before they become larger
more destructive fires. A
multipurpose fire extin-
guisher, suitable for use on
all 3 classes of fire, ordinary
combustibles, flammable
liquids and electrical, can
offer some assurance that
one is using an appropriate
extinguisher on a specific
fire.

Typically an extinguisher
is accompanied by instruc-

tions for its use as well.
Hang it in the area where you
consider it might be needed,
however not too close to the
potential hazard, while the
importance of hanging it
near an escape route cannot
be overemphasized. It's a
practical gift.

A flashlight or other light
source generated by batteries
in lieu of candle use can be
safer during a power outage.
While candles can be deco-
rative and functional when
used properiy, unattended
burning candles account for
approximately 60% of all

Consider resting easier
knowing a loved one is pre-
pared for the unexpected,
using long lasting battery
operated lighting during a
power outage.

I'll obviously use what-
ever angle 1 can to promote
the tools available for a safer
household. Expressing care
for others in these unique
ways included.

ideas mentioned above are
both practical and inexpres-
sive. They all keep giving
long after the holidays end.

We continue to pursue a
$10,000 grant for the Quin-
cy Fire Department and your
participation is needed.

We're making every ef-
fort to get the word out
while this article is one last
attempt. We are well in the
running for this grant, while
any successful race isn't
complete until the finish line
is crossed.

Therefore kindly consid-
er taking a brief quiz on the
web site designated above if
you haven't done so already.
The final day for participa-
tion is Dec. 21.

Here's how to enter:

Liberty Mutual is offer-
ing a $10,000 grant to the
fire department in the city or
town with the greatest par-
ticipation in their fire safety
quiz. Adults and children
can sign on and respond to
a brief 10-question quiz.
The questions are simple,
yet thought provoking. Each
has to do with household fire
safety. I've taken it and the

Visit: BeFire Smartxoni

simple questions made me
stop and think on the subject
matter. They couldn't have
been simpler, yet they pro-
voked thought.

There are two reasons
why we are on board with
this effort. The first and
most important being, it will
draw attention to our own
fire safety educational ef-
forts if only for 2 minutes.

Any time directed to-
ward prevention can make
a difference for individuals.
Modifying the simplest of
habits can make for a safer
household. Inciting and pro-
moting fire safety thought
can make a difference. This
simple quiz can do that as
well.

Secondly, there is a
$10,000 grant given to the
community fire department
with the most involvement.
That involvement is deter-
mined by individuals such
as yourself or your children
signing on the site, taking
the quiz and identifying

erty Mutual representative

Finn Challenges Mayor's Partnership Plan For Pier

Cont 'd From Paf^e I

will provide help in estab-
lishing crew teams at the
city's high schools.

"I have strong misgiv-
ings about gifting (public
land) to a private school
without bringing it to City
Council," said Finn, adding
that a number of constitu-
ents have, also, raised issues
regarding the plan.

Finn cited the pier part-
nership as one of two ex-
amples that KcK'h is not con-
sulting or informing council
members of the administra-
tion's plans.

"1 want them to come
and explain (the project),"
Finn said after Monday's
meeting, adding that it is es-
sential that the project be "in
compliance with state law. It
needs a broader audience."

After the meeting, City
Solicitor James Timmins
said he saw no problem with
the park department's plan
as the city is simply allow-
ing access to "navigable wa-
ters."

Chris Walker, Koch's
Chief of Staff, cited sev-
eral public hearings called
by the Park and Recreation
Board last Spring and stated

JOSEPH FINN

that the Park and Recreation
Board has jurisdiction.

Finn joins Ward 1 Coun-
cillor-Elect Margaret Lafor-
est in questioning the part-
nership plan with Thayer
Academy. Laforest said
believes any plan should in-
clude upgrades to the histor-
ic Souther Tidal Mill which
abuts the property.

Laforest said recently
that she'd like to see pres-
ervation plans for the tidal
mill underway. She de-
scribed Souther Tidal Mill
as a major historical site,
marking the city's impor-
tance, not only in the granite
industry but also in coastal
commerce.

Approvals Needed

Conservation Commis-
sioners recently approved

TOM KOCH

plans for the construction
of a pier, parking, and im-
provements on waterfront
parkland off Southern Ar-
tery.

This is the first of numer-
ous approvals required for
the project due to its water-
front kxation abutting an
historical landmark, accord-
ing to city officials.

"We're just the first
step," said Commissioner
Jeff Graeber who chaired
the Dec. 2 Conservation
Commission meeting. "We
approved the plan for pur-
poses of the Conservation
Commission."

"It satisfied conservation
issues. We're not passing on
historical issues," Graeber
said, referring to the abut-
ting parcel which houses

Souther Tidal Mill.

1 he plans must also clear
state and federal reviews,
and possibly that of the
Coast Guard, according to
Barry J. Welch, the city's
Director of Recreation

In addition, the Historical
Commission must approve
the plan as the development
area abuts the Souther lidal
Mill.

Now. City Councillors
are. also, asking to review
the plan

Ihe Order of Conditions
approved by the Conserva-
tion Commission requires
that the plan be approved
under Chapter 91. undergo
a review by the Historical
Commission and that space
be set aside for lobstermen
to have continued and im-
proved access.

The property, which
abuts the CVS Pharmacy at
686 Southern Artery, once
housed the Quincy Lumber
Co. The parcels, now ne-
glected and frequented by
homeless, features pockets
of trash scattered through-
out and a hazardous board-
walk. After the meeting,
Koch described the benefits
of the plan, "This is a text-

book public-private partner
ship and we are thrilled that
rhayer has agreed to make
this kind of substantial com
mitment to the City""

"We will have a new

park and new opportunities
tor our kids and Ihaycr will
have the access to the water
it wants for its own pro-
gram All at no cost to our
residents '

PHYLLLS L. DOUCETTE of Quincy was recently honored
with the 2009 Chancellor's Years of .Ser>ice Award for her
years in the Center of Survey Research. With her is LMass
Boston Chancellor J. Keith Motlev.

GIVE ME A BREAK

Bones usually break when a specialist in foot and ankle

something happens to cnjsh,
bend, twist, or stretch them. Toes
are often broken when they ac-
cidentally kick something hard.
Heels are often broken when
a person falls from a height
and lands on his or her feet.
Other bones in the foot some-
times break when an ankle is
sprained or twisted. Occasran-
ally, small cracks can fonn from
repeated stress on the bones
of the foot over a long period
of time (known as stress frac-
tures). Broken bones In the foot
cause pain and swelling. Bnjis-
ing or redness of the foot with a
broken bone is common. It is im-

Quincy Police Participate In
Counter-Terrorism Exercise

The Quincy Police De-
partment recently took part
in a training program on ter-
rorism at the Auburn Mall.

Using their specially
trained bomb detection
dogs, five Quincy Police
Officers learned how to
protect students on school
buses and citizens at shop-
pmg malls.

This department has six
K-9 handlers and all are ca-
pable of finding lost persons
or wanted fugitives. Two
of the dogs are trained to
detect illegal narcotics and
the remaining four dogs are
trained to detect firearms
and explosives.

This specialized unit is a
great asset to the Police De-
partment and to the safety
of all residents.

Koch's Plan Will Lower
Tax Bill By $2 On Average

Cont 'd From Page 1

lor John Keenan, chair-
man of the Finance Commit-
tee warned that home values
in some neighborhoods have
remained steady and even
increased. Those taxpayers
will see an increase in their
tax bills.

The proposed rate hinges
on the transfers of over $2
million from the Stabiliza-
tion Fund and $700,000
from Free Cash needed to
cover last year's Snow and
Ice Removal deficit.

The transfers reduced
the Stabilization Fund by
40%, leaving a balance of
approximately $3.4 mil-
lion. By the meeting's end,
the city's Free Cash account
was near zero as Councillors
approved a $150,000 trans-
fer for election costs later in
the meeting.

Another $2 million was
transferted from the Reserve
Fund for Open Space, Park
& Recreation and Tourism
and carry-over and closed
accounts.

The transfer requests
alarmed Ward 5 Councillor
Douglas Gutro who fears a
bargain of "short term gain

Council President Jay Davis
who warned of the future
impact on bond rates for
school building.

"We're depleting our Sta-
bilization account," said Da-
vis who suggested that a mi-
nor increase in taxes would
protect future bond rates.

"It may have an impact,"
said Keenan .

'The decision was made
to maintain the zero on taxes
this year," said Jim Fatseas,
Koch's Chief of Staff, add-
ing later, "Taxpayers and
residents are up against
it...."

Davis asked councillors
to delay the vote for a week
and to discuss the Stabiliza-
tion Fund issue with bond
council but the motion was
defeated 8-1.

"I don't know what other

New QHS Will Make City
'The Proudest School System'

Cont 'd From Page 3

Quincy High School
Building ("ommittec mem
ber HIaine Dwyer said, "We
will be the proudest sch(K)l
system when the building
opens in September "

Project manager Iiugene
Caruso of lishman said the
school is 70 percent com-
plete and is on schedule and
under budget with a compie
Hon date of Aug. 20

The school received a
$3(MJ.(K)0 grant from the
Mass Technological Col-
labrative to have solar pan-
els, which generate electric-
ity, put on the roof.

Parking has also been
increased with 234 spaces
in the North Parking area.
Parking along Coddington
Street will remain the way
it was before construction
began. Twenty-nine spaces
were also added between the
school and Quincy College.

With 150 adult employ-
ees and 50-60 students who
drive to school, Santoro
said there would be more
than enough spaces to fit the
need.

Along with the new

school comes a different ap-
proach to teaching Gone are
the days of keeping the vo-
cational disciplines separate
from academics From car-
pentry to automotive tech,
every shop has a technolo-
gy-based classroom, and the
courses offered range from
the cuiinarv arts to plumb-
ing, welding and metal tab-
rication.

The medical assistant and
patient care technical certifi-
cation programs have class^
rooms that model hospital
rooms. Interactive boards,
which provide quick access
to the internet, have replaced
blackboards while manv of
the disciplines interact with
one another Santoro point-
ed out how robotics is made
up of physics, engineering,
welding and mathematics

"All these disciplines
make up robotics." he said
"We don't live in a bubble "

Students in the culi-
nary arts department have
been busy in the spacious
kitchen. The aspinng chefs
baked 200 pies for Thanks-
giving and will be involved
in the food preparation for

the mayor's Christmas part)
and inauguration

"We train all our students,
no matter what their major
IS. to upplv tor four \ ear
colleges." Santoro said

I he new wings will offer

compass the entire second

A first-fioor cafetena will

restaurant, open to the pub-
lic IS also in the works

Although there is plentv
of excitement around the
permanent move. Santoro
believes there is also a
twinge of sadness in leaving
the old high school.

"We will be saddened as
we say goodbye to Quincy
High School as we know
It. \et we will be excited to
be a part of what is about to
come." Santoro said.

City Planners To Receive Four National Awards

The C'ity of Quincy De-
partment of Planning and
Community Development
will receive four '"Outstand-
ing Planning" awards later
this month from the Mas-
sachusetts Chapter of the
American Planning Asso-
ciation (APA). announce
Mayor Thomas P. Koch and
Planning Director Dennis E.
Harrington.

The Planning Depart-
ment applied for the awards
in early October and were
recently notified of the re-
sults. The awards will be
presented to the Planning
Department at a holiday lun-
cheon at Parris in Boston's
Quincy Market Friday, Dec.
18.

The Planning Depart-
ment has won first place
awards under the categories
of "Social Advocacy" and
"Media", and won honor-
able mention awards under
the categories of "Planning
Project" and "Student Proj-
ect". Quincy 's four awards
represent nearly 25% of all
awards that will be present-
ed at the luncheon later this
month.

The Social Advocacy
award was selected due to
Quincy 's success in imple-
menting a "Housing First"
model of shelter, which is
designed to provide barrier-
free housing for those indi-
viduals that have struggled
the most and are the toughest
to house. "Housing First" is
a cheaper and more effec-
tive model of housing than
emergency shelter. Sean
Glennon, Senior Planner in
the Planning Department,
was the team leader for this
award application. Other
planners contributing to the
award application included
Nancy Callanan, Commu-
nity Development Director,

and Stephen Connelly, As-
sistant Planner.

The Media award was se-
lected due to the amount of
media coverage generated
by Quincy 's celebration of
National Community Devel-
opment Week 20()9, which
was held from April 13-17
of this year. The week-long
celebration generated radio,
television, print, and elec-
tronic media coverage.

Sean Glennon was also
the team leader for this
award application, in col-
laboration with Nancy Cal-
lanan.

The Plaiming Project se-
lected for honorable mention
is the Quincy Public Art and
Place-Making Ordinance,
which was approved by the
Quincy City Council in June
of this year.

The Quincy Ordinance
is the only one of its kind in
Massachusetts, and provides
a means for managing a pub-
lic aris fund and establishing
a Public Arts Commission.

The team leader for this
award application was City
Planner Mary A. Smith,
RLA, who also supervised
the entire process for all
award submissions. Con-
tributors to this award ap-
plication included Elizabeth
Manning, Principal Planner,
and Robert Stevens, Senior
Planner.

The Student Project se-
lected for honorable mention
is "Retum to Main Street: A
Revitalization Plan for the
WoUaston Neighborhood
Center," which was pro-
duced by Sasaki Associates
in Watertown, in partnership
with the Quincy Planning
Department. The revitaliza-
tion plan was created by a
group of students interning
at Sasaki over the summer.
The internship team com-

pleted an intensive analysis
of the Wollaston area; de-
veloped three conceptual
schemes for the Wollaston
Business District; and then
produced a comprehensive
master plan for the area,
which could be used as a
guide for future planning in
that part of the city.

The Plaruiing Depart-
ment's team leader for this
project was Kristina John-
son, Principal Planner, in
collaboration with Nicholas

Verenis, Economic Devel-
opment Plaimer.

The awarded projects
were chosen for their in-
novation, quality, transfer-
ability, implementation, and
comprehensiveness.

The Planning Depart-
ment won four out of the
five award applications it
submitted to the APA. The
department has also been
informed by the APA that
more than twice as many
submissions were received

in each category this year
than in years past, which
heightens the significance
of Quincy 's awards.

"1 am extremely pleased
with the American Planning
Association's recognition of
our Planning and Communi-
ty Development activities,"
Koch said.

"1 thank Planning Di-
rector Dermis Harrington
and Mary A. Smith, RLA,
as well as Nancy Callanan,
Stephen Coimelly, Sean

Glermon, Kristina Johnson,
Elizabeth Manning, Rob
Stevens, and Nicholas Ve-
renis. These awards recog-
nize our continued efforts to
provide a better quality of
hfe for all residents in the
City of Quincy."

These APA awards rep-
resent the 7th, 8th, 9th, and
10th national awards that
Quincy 's Department of
Planning and Conununity
Development has won since
2(X)5.

LT. DAN MINION

A Job Weil Done

On Mondu), Dec 7, 2(KW, at approximately 3: 15 a in.,
Oftieer Danny Chunh u as on patri>l on C\)mnu)n Street ap-
proaching Quarry Street, where he sto[)ped For a red light.
He observed a pickup truck to his left stopped on Quarry
Street at the saine nitersection.
When the light turned green
for the pickup truck, it did not
move. Thinking that the driver
could be stopped to allow the
Officer to turn right onto Quar-
ry Street, Officer Church made
the turn slowly, watching the
truck in his rear view mirror.

The truck continued to sit
idle, although the traffic signal
was green, so the Officer re-
turned to the intersection and
observed that the operator ap-
peared to be asleep or passed

out. Officer Church pulled in behind the truck and placed
the beam of his spotlight through the back window, then
stayed there as the traffic signal cycled twice (red. green,
red, green) without the vehicle prtxeeding.

At thi- (v,in[. Ot'-cc! Chiiioli approached the dnvfr's
window and liHind ilic operator, the lone occupant. Miun^
with his head down and his eve-, dosed. Ofiiccr (luuvli
tned selling to the driver but there was no response A!
iti banging on the window as he veiled. Olhcer Church
uas able In j^ot a rer nonse as the driver lifted his he;-. J and
opened h, ■'iwas jv^kcd fn: his Ikvivc a.--j

registration. \],c unvt-i uoddccJ. 'ki; ''id nc» p-.iN r,\ ;,:,«
vide the docunu-nls. | he driver was toid to pui his vehicle
in park. He looked at the steering wheel, nodded, but took
no action.

He was instructed again to put his vehicle in piirk but he
did not move. Officer C^hurch, at risk to himself (being as-
saulted or dragged), reached over the steering column and
placed the gearshift into park When told to shut the vehicle
off, the driver pulled the gearshift into reverse, causing the j
vehicle tti roll back towards the cruiser. Officer Church
again reached over the steering column, placed the vehicle
in park, turned the \ ehicle off and took the keys from the
vehicle.

Vv hen asked if he had been drinking, the driver respond-
ed,'"one Winthrop and tvxo uon Winthrop.'" Not knowing
what that meant. Oiiieer Church asked the driver to clariiv
and got tui incoherent slur, which sounded somewhat simi-
lar to what he just ^aid

When asked where lie was coming from, the driver
said, "Winthrop. and when asked where he v\as going, he
said. •"Winthrop." Aliei- asking approximately six clanfv-
ing questions and receiving mostly indiscernible slurs, 'it
appeared that he w as coming from Barr> Street in Winthrop
and traveling to his home on Winthrop Street in Quincy. It
should be noted that during bcx)king, the dnver gave an Eiist
Boston address (as did his license) as his home address.

During this conversation. Officer Church detected
glassy eyes and a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming
from the driver's breath. ITie driver said that his name was
"Scott" and when asked for his license and registration, the
driver nodded, reached into his pcxket and retrieved a key
on a small key ring, then handed it to Officer Church. When
asked again, the driver gave Officer Church a hand and foot
warmer from the console. On the third request, the driver
provided his license.

The driver, suspected of being under the influence of
alcoholic beverage, was explained and exhibited field so-
briety tests. On the first test, the driver attempted the alpha-
bet test, but started with the letter "G" and stopping at the
letter "N." On the next attempt, using a flat, dry surface,
the driver attempted the one-legged test, and after several
attempts, the driver kept his leg up for about four seconds,
then lowered the leg to regain balance. He tried again, but
failed to count out loud each second, then after eight sec-
onds, he lost his balance and lowered his leg.

Officer Church showed the driver how to do the "Walk
and Turn" test, and then asked him if he understood the
test.

The driver said, "Of course I do." The driver kept repo-
sitioning his feet to prevent losing his balance. As he tried
the test, the driver was "airpianing," swinging his arms
in attempts to maintain balance. Based on all information
available. Officer Church determined that the driver, a 30-
year old Boston resident, was intoxicated and incapable of
driving. The driver was placed under arrest for OUI and
ti-ansported to the station where he took the Breathalyzer
test, with a result of 0.14%, well above the legal limit of
0.08%. A fingerprint check revealed that the driver did pro-
vide the correct date of birth but gave a false name. On
his criminal record, it also showed that he provided false
names in the past and he was charged with OUI in January
of 2003 in Braintree. Due to the failed blood alcohol test,
the suspect's license was confiscated too.
Nice Work!

Opened Season With 52-47 Win Over Ply. South

North Quincy Expecting

Big Things

By SEAN BRENNAN

Two years removed from
a 16- win season, a season
which saw the North Quincy
Red Raiders advance to the
second round of the Divi-
sion I South tournament,
and one year after struggling
through a unrewarding 4-13
campaign, the 2(X)9-10 Red
Raider boys basketball team
has lofty goals and high ex-
pectations.

"We returned mostly ev-
erybody in terms of contrib-
utors from last year's team,"
said NQHS head coach
Kevin Barrett on Monday.
"I am looking at a number
of returners to step up their
games and produce for us
this season. Last year was a
learning experience for this
team as a lot of them were
playing their first year on
varsity.

"It takes a year to get
your feet wet (from jayvee
to varsity) and I see these
players maturing this season
and taking that next step."

Barrett spotlighted se-
nior captains Mike Stanton
and Jonathan Coates as two
players who he sees having
major impacts on the suc-
cess or failure of this year's
Red Raider team. Both play-
ers bring dynamic skills to
the court, according to their
coach.

"Mike Stanton and Johna-
than Coates bring leadership
and experience. I am looking
to them to lead the way and
help us get back to being a
competitive team that no one
wants to play against.

"Stanton has the chance
to be one of the premier in-
side players in the Patriot
League. He is a good re-
bounder and always threat
to score inside. If Mike can
establish his position down
low he has the opportunity to
be a real tough matchup both
on offense and defense.

"And Johnathan is also a
matchup problem for teams.
He is a threat from the pe-
rimeter where he can score
beyond the arch, but he
can also put the ball on the
floor and get down into the
paint. He is a gifted athlete
and he knows how to get his
points."

With Stanton and Coates,
North Quincy has a solid one-
two punch, but the team will
also be looking for produc-
tion from seniors Chris Del-
aney (starting point guard),
Ned Gould (forward), Pat-
rick Ouellette (center), Luis
Valentin (guard), Terrence
Staley (guard), Jessie Col-
lins (guard), Matt Jayne
(forward) and Nino Martins
(guard).

"Delaney does a great job
directing the offense as the
point guard," said Barrett of
his senior point guard. "That
position is all about chemis-
try and Chris has done a nice
job in the off-season work-
ing on his game and getting
comfortable running our of-
fense. He is a very good ball
handler."

North Quincy 's ten-mem-
ber senior class should be
supported this season by ju-
nior Mike Morrison (guard)
and sophomores Matt Costa
(guard) and Tim Liuzzo
(forward); but it is the se-
niors who Barrett expects
will place NQHS in the Pa-
triot League championship
mix and ultimately back to a
tournament appearance.

"One of our goals this
season is to be in the mix for
a Patriot League champion-
ship," added Barrett whose
team has switched from the
Patriot League's Fisher Divi-
sion to the Keenan Division
this winter. "It doesn't matter
what division we are playing
in since you have to play ev-
ery team in the league any-
way. We have never strayed

away from a challenge; we
are going to be competitive
in every game this year.

"Our other goal is to get
North Quincy back to play-
ing in the Division 1 South
tournament. Two years ago
we made some noise after
qualifying and then knock-
ing off Bridgewater-Rayn-
ham in the first-round before
losing to Framingham.

"We want to get back to
that level of play. I want us
to be right there in the thick
of it playing against some of
the best teams in Division
I South and if we play they
way 1 think we can, that is
where we will be at the end
of the season."

North Quincy got their
season started off on a win-
ning note last Friday. The
team knocked off non-
league opponent Plymouth
South HS, 52-47. The Raid-
ers played a Patriot League
game on Tuesday versus
Hingham HS and are sched-
uled to host Whitman-Han-
son HS (Dec. 18) and Silver
Lake HS (Dec. 22) before
Christmas.

"We got off on the right
foot against Plymouth South,
but Hingham, Wliitman-
Hanson and Silver Lake
are going to show us where
the league is at and where
we are compared to other
teams," said Barrett. "It is
going to be a tough league
all-around."

Team Notes: North
Quincy will play in the John
Adams Classic at Brain-
tree HS (Dec. 27-28) along
with Quincy, Weymouth and
Braintree... NQHS and QHS
will play each other on Jan.
15 at 7 p.m ... North Quincy
is in the Patriot League's
Keenan Division with Dux-
bury. Scituate, Hingham,
Silver Lake and Whitman-
Hanson.

Opened Season Tuesday Ai^(nnst Pembroke HS

Presidents Ready To
Face New Challenges

By SEAN BRKNNAN

Ihc Quinc) Presidents
opened Iheir 2(K)9-|()-has
ketball season on luesdav
evening against Patriot
League opponent Pembroke
High School For Quint),
It marked the beginning on
what should be an exciting
winter of hoops.

"I can't believe that the
season is already here, it
seems like yesterday that last
year ended," said QHS head
coach David Parry earlier
this week. "We should have
a competitive team this sea-
son. Last year was a learning
year for many of these play-
ers, trying to figure out what
each could do to be success-
ful, but this year 1 see this
team playing together as a
unit.

"This group of players
has been playing together
since last season ended and
although we may be a young
team, we have game expe-
rience, which is something
we are going to need as we
kick off our Patriot League
schedule this week."

Leading the way for the
Presidents this year will
be senior captains Kenny
Nguyen and Robbie Bina
and junior captain Brian
Malger.

"We are going to be a
young team, but we do have
a bunch of seniors who
should be able to produce,"
added Parry. "Players to
keep in eye on include se-
nior captain Kenny Nguyen
and senior Adusei Kusi and
junior captain Brian Malger.

"We are loaded with se-
niors this year and 1 expect
them to step up and keep us
competitive in every game
we play."

Along with Nguyen, Bina
and Kusi , seniors Chris Clay-
ton, Cedric Dybaud, Danny
Andrade and Jed Leger will
be looked at to provide the
leadership needed with a
younger team.

"Most of these seniors

have been with tfie program
tor vears and I respect the
lovaltv and commitment that
thev have shown." said Parrv
"Like I said. 1 am expecting
them to step up when asked
this season I hat is going to
a big ke> to our success "'

With .Malger as the
headliner of a talented ju-
nior class. Parry is also ex-
pecting big things out of
juniors Brendan .M\ers,
Oliver O'Sullivan, Lukas
McDonough, Seth PuUum.
Austin Tobin and Kevin Mc-
Donagh. Sophomore Reggie
Cesar should also play a sig-
nificant role this winter for
the Presidents.

"(This team) is young but
we are expenenced. Many of
these underclassmen saw a
lot of playing time last year
so I expect them to improve
this season," said Parry.

One area on the court that
Quincy is going to be chal-
lenged this winter will be
on the offensive and defen-
sive boards. The Presidents,
according to Pany, do not
posses the height that many
of the teams in the Patriot
league have, so Quincy is
going to have to battle for
ever> possession and re-
bound.

"Our one Achilles heel
may end up being our lack
of height." said Parr> whose
tallest player is listed at 6'3"
(K. McDonagh). "We are go-
ing to have to really get after
it on the boards and try and
play pressure defense when-
ever we can. 1 have been
trying to drill it into the kids
that because we are not very
big we are going to have to
find ways to overcome that.

'This team is going to
have to come to play every
night and be ready to battle
in every game. The Patriot
League is loaded and every
game is going to be a chal-
lenge."

After playing last sea-
son in the Keenan Division,
the Presidents switched

to the fislicr Division this
season, and that means the
team needs to be prepared
to matchup against teams
from Rockland. Hanover.

■Rockland is the team
to watch out for in this di-
vision," he said "In a ver>
strong division thev are an
elite team, but you also have
teams like Hanover. Ran-
dolph. Middleboro and Pem-
broke who should be tough.
Most of these teams have re-
turned the majonty of their
starting lineups and it will
not be an easy task playing
against any of them "

Another challenge that
Presidents are going to have
to deal with this winter, due
to the ongoing construction
at Quincy High School, is
playing their home games at
North Quincy High School
Not an ideal situation, but
according to Parr>. also not
an excuse

"We are really going to
have to be road warriors
this year." he said "Playing
at NQHS will be different
But the kids have had the
time to get used to that court
and atmosphere during prac-
tice and hopefully the home
crowd follows us there and
gives us the support we are
going to need.

"But we are really excited
that the season is here We
are ready for the challenge
this year should bnng and if
we remain resilient and play
together as a team we should
be very competitive "

10 Tips For A Healthy, Happy Holiday

QUINCY RESIDENT Patti Flannery, executive assistant, Sul-
livan & Worcester LLP; and Chris Bullock, paralegal, SulUvan
& Worcester LLP, of Hull, co-captains of the Making Strides
Against Breast Cancer "Law Firm Challenge*' at the firm's re-
cent in-house silent auction.

Patti Flannery Helps Raise
Funds For Cancer Society

Patti Flannery of Quincy,
an employee at Boston's
Sullivan & Worcester law
firm, was instrumental in
the firm's recent fundrais-
ing efforts for the American
Cancer Society's Making
Strides Against Breast Can-
cer initiative.

S & W won the Law Firm
Challenge for the 4th year in
a row by raising more than
$40,000 for the cause.

Thousands of cancer
survivors, their friends and
families came together for
the annual "Making Strides
Against Breast Cancer"
walk to find a cure for breast
cancer. The team from Sul-
livan & Worcester walked
again this year, after winning
the Law Firm Challenge for
the third time last year.

They also recently host-
ed a fundraiser on at the Sul-

livan & Worcester office in
Boston. The team of fund-
raisers, led by executive as-
sistant Patricia Flannery, and
paralegal Chris Bullock of
Hull, ran this unique event,
comprised of a silent auc-
tion (run through the firm's
intranet in all three offices),
a raffle, and a sale of differ-
ent items, many handmade
or donated by S & W staff,
their friends and their fami-
lies. There was everything
from a Sullivan & Worces-
ter Cookbook, to baskets
full of to-die-for chocolate
chip cookies (these are pre-
ordered and usually cause
a bidding war), to offers of
trips, flights and coveted
sporting event tickets. The
proceeds from this event, as
well as other activities, such
as their pizza floor wars,
will go towards the team's
overall fundraising goal .

The holiday season
doesn't have to create havoc
on your weight-loss goals,
says TOPS Club, Inc. (Take
Off Pounds Sensibly), the
nonprofit weight-loss sup-
port organization.

Follow these 10 strate-
gies to navigate the eating
season for a great time with-
out a great gain.

Don't go hungry. Arriv-
ing at a party on an empty
stomach is a recipe for
disaster that can lead you
to overeat and make poor
choices. Have a light snack
of a low-fat, high-fiber food
a half-hour before you go,
such as yogurt, an apple with
a teaspoon of peanut butter,
a piece of string cheese, or
vegetables with low-calorie
dip. This will help curb your
appetite and make it easier
to control your intake.

TVeat yourself. There's
no need to ban your favorites;
decide what you want to try
and then set a limit. Cakes,
cookies, and pies are avail-
able year-round, so indulge
in small portions of only
the best seasonal, holiday
foods. Just a taste of some-
thing special can be enough
to quell a craving without
going overboard.

Take controL Offer to
bring a low-calorie dish or
platter to holiday gatherings.
By preparing something that
you know fits into your meal
plan, you'll have at least
one healthy item on hand
and other guests will likely
appreciate it. Your hostess
may also be grateful for the
lessened stress of preparing
multiple dishes.

Slow yoar pace. Eat

slowly until you are satis-
fied, not stuffed. It takes
about 20 minutes for your
body to signal that you're
feeling full, so enjoy each
bite and give yourself time
to know when you've had
enough. You'll likely con-
sume less than usual.

Mind your beverages.
Drink plenty of water to
help feel full and hydrated.
Adding a twist of lemon or
lime to sparkling water is a
lively alternative to alcohol
and coffee drinks, which
can actually make you feel
sluggish. Alcohol can also
impair your judgment and
make it difficult to stick to
healthy eating resolutions.
If you do choose to im-
bibe, select light beers and
wines, and limit your intake
to one or two drinks per oc-
casion. Drink high-calorie
seasonal favorites, like egg
nog, punch, and full-fat hot
chocolate, in moderation -
or steer clear of them alto-
gether.

Pair up with a friend.
Make a pact that you will
support and help keep each
other on track. Don't hesi-
tate to lean on each other
if you need encouragement
to resist tempting treats or
power through a workout.
Remember, you're not the
only one refraining from
holiday overindulgence.

Keep moving. It's easy
to let workouts fall by the
wayside. If you aren't able
to set aside time each day
for exercise, commit to at
least 30 minutes three days
per week. Many people
continue their regular walk-
ing or jogging schedules

year-round, but also con-
sider walking in malls or the
building where you work.

Indoor pools, weight-
workout rooms, tracks, and
basketballs courts are com-
monly available in commu-
nity facilities and schools.
Municipal ice skating rinks,
both indoors and out, offer a
change of pace from the usu-
al routine, while cross-coun-
try skiing and hiking let you
build up your strength while
enjoying nature's beauty.

Maintaining a workout
routine also can help you
manage holiday stress by re-
leasing "feel-good" endor-
phins and provide a "time
out" from worry and harried
thoughts.

Rest up. Make adequate
sleep - seven to eight hours
- a priority, especially dur-
ing this busy season. Get-
ting enough rest can help
repair your body, keep you
mentally sharp, and enable
you to be more productive.

Make friends and fam-

ily a priority. Although
food and drinks can be a big
part of the holiday season,
they don't have to be the fo-
cus. Set aside time to spend
with good friends and fam-
ily, making memories that
make the holidays worth-
while.

Keep your perspective.
Be realistic and maintain
a long-term view of your
weight-loss goals. Overeat-
ing one day won't make or
break your plans; just aim to
eat healthy and in modera-
tion the next day. Dieting
can be especially difficult
during the holidays. Focus
on maintaining your present
weight and look toward the
new year as a fresh start.

Remember, there will be
many more holidays to en-
joy. Employ these tips and
come January, you will feel
as good about yourself as
you did before Thanksgiv-
ing - one more reason to
celebrate.

MATTRESS SELE

If you wake up with a stiff

back, your mattress may be to

blame. Back pain should be

mildest in the morning before

you get out of bed. While you

might think that a very finn

mattress is best for addressing

back pain, research shows that a

medium-finn or firm coil mattress

provides the most benefit. To see

which mattress best suits your

needs, try out various models in

the store. Test each mattress for

five minutes, and start with lying

on your back without a pillow.

Your hand should slide snugly in

place at tl^ small of your back.

When you turn on your side, you

should not notice any additional

pressure being exerted on your

hips or shoulders.

People can get back ache,
headache, body pain etc., if
the mattress they sleep on is
not good. One third of our
life is spent on a bed. To stay

healthy we need to sleep well.
Sleep promotes good health
and improves concentration.
If a person does not sleep well
then he cannot work efficiently.
Hence we need to have a good
mattress to sleep comfortably.
At FAMILY PRACTICE OF
CHIROPRACTIC, we focus on
good health and optimal function.
Please call il7>472>422f to
schedule an ai^intment and
let us help you enjoy life to
the fullest. We're located at
112 McGnith Hwy., Qtdiicy.
No matter where you live in
Eastern Mass., we can o£fer you
exceptional chirc^ractic service.
P.S. In addition to sleeping
on an appropriately siqjporttve
mattress, select a pillow that
supports your head without
overly propping it up and out of
aligrunent with the rest of your
spinal column.

Dry Winter Air
Promotes Nosebleeds

Tilt your head back to
stop a bloody nose?

That old-fashioned ad-
vice for kids is just plain
wrong.

Unfortunately, there's
a lot of misinformation on
how to stop this common
childhood malady.

Dr. E>iane Heatley, asso-
ciate professor of surgery
(otolaryngology) at the
University of Wisconsin
School of Medicine and
Public Health, says old-
time remedies like lying
down or holding the head
back will not work, becau-
se children's nosebleeds
usually start in blood ves-
sels in the front of the
nose.

"If you make the child
lie down or hold back the
head, blood will run into
the throat and make the
child choke," she says.
"The child should actually
sit up and lean forward so
blood can enter the front of
the nose, and then gendy
apply pressure by squee-
zing the nostrils together
for at least five minutes un-
til normal clotting occurs."

"A cold cloth or small
ice pack on the bridge of
the nose will also slow
blood flow by constricting
blood vessels ~ if your
child will tolerate it," she
adds. "But an ice pack on
the back of the neck won't
do much."

Heatley, an ear, nose
and throat specialist for

children, says nosebleeds
most frequently happen in
the fall and winter when
indoor heating systems can
dry out the air as well as a
child's nostrils. This often
makes the nose crusty and
itchy, and kids seek relief
by rubbing or picking at it.

"Since nosebleeds result
from dryness, the inside of
the nose should be kept
moist to reduce the irrita-
tion," she says. Headey's
specific tips for preven-
tion:

Apply petroleum jel-
ly with a cotton swab
to the area at night be-
fore the child goes to bed.
Kids can wear socks
over their hands at bed-
time if they pick their
nose while sleeping.
Over-the-counter saline
sprays may be another so-
lution. "Salt water is beco-
ming more recognized to
treat kids with chronic no-
sebleeds," she says. "It's a
way to get moisture further
up the nose and reduce ir-
ritation."

However, Headey en-
courages parents to get
their kids to a doctor if no-
sebleeds occur at least twi-
ce a week over an extended
period of time. In those
rare cases, surgery may be
required.

"Nosebleeds will stop
99 percent of the time if
the child applies pressure
to the nostrils, and keeps
fingers and other objects
out of them," she says

lights the way to the spirit and brotherhood of Christmas

New Christmas Song, Play At
Quincy Point Congregational Church

On Sunday, Dec. 20 the
Sunday School Children will
perform a play entitled, "The
Legend of the Christmas
Poinsettia" at 10 a.m. wor-
ship service at Quincy Point
Congregational Church, 444
Washington St., Quincy.

The play - set is a small
Mexican Village on Christ-
mas Eve - is part of the
church's ongoing celebra-
tion of Christmas traditions
from different countries.
The deacon of the day will
be Deanna VanSchagen and
the lay reader will be Alyson
Greer.

A new Christmas song,
"Put a Candle in the Win-
dow," will be sung at the
6:30 p.m. Candlelight ser-
vice Thursday, Dec. 24 at
the Quincy Point Congrega-
tional Church.

The original song is a

'Put A Candle In the Window' Lyrics Page 27

collaboration between Pro-
fessor Delvyn Case who
composed the music and
The Rev. Ann Suzedell who
wrote the words.

The song is a response
to the episode in the Christ-
mas story when Joseph and
Mary are on their way from
Nazareth to Bethlehem and
seek shelter at their destina-
tion. The title of the song
comes from the Irish custom
of putting alighted candle
in the window of a house
on Christmas Eve, signify-
ing welcome to Mary and
Joseph.

The song is dedicated to
the spirit of Fr. Bill McCa-
rthy who was a persistent
advocate for those whose
lives are burdened by home-
lessness and those who are
at risk of losing their hos-

ing. His aim was not just
to provide temporary shel-
ter through Fr. Bill's/Main-
spring, but to envision a time
when homelessness would
no longer pose a threat to
folks in our communities.

"Put a Candle in the Win-
dow" is also offered with
thanksgiving for the congre-
gation of the Quincy Point
Congregational Church.

A Musical Prelude by the
Quincy Point String Quartet
will begin at 6:10 pm.

Music will also be per-
formed by the Chancel choir
and the point handbell ring-
ers.

Put A Candle
In riie Window

(New Christtmis Soni;}

Bethlehem, their destination
Mary, Joseph on the way
Seeking shelter, solace, safety
Will there be a place to stay?

Slowly walking, sadly talking

Trying doorways here and there.

Busy people rushing by them
Fail to see this special pair.

Humble setting, holy moment

Heaven's reach embraces earth.

By the manger, shepherds gathered
Angels praise our Savior's birth.

Folks still wander seeking shelter
Worried daily, knowing fear.

Think of Mary, think of Joseph

Will they find a welcome here?

Put a candle In the window

Sign of hope for those in need.

Light the way to home and welcome
Honor Christ in word and deed.

Managing Director

A Thoi/ght

George Bernard Shaw once said that
progress is impossible without change;
and those who cannot change their minds
cannot change anything . . . Indeed, one
of the key words of our modem life is
"change."

We in our profession, the Funeral
Service, have not been immune to these
changes. Today we are coming to see, more and more, that
Funeral Service has a greater meaning to our society than
probably every before in ourliistory.Today 's public is probaUy
the most knowledgeable in the history of mankind. Yesterday's
"taboos," misconcepCions and questions are being forthrightly
discussed and answered. .. and this is the way it shouU be. Gone
are the days when a director was called upon lamply because (^
religious beliefe and family custom. In today's society a funeral
home's clientele cuts across ethnic and religious backgrounds.
(Again, this is the way it should be.)

At Deware Funeral Home we are proud that we have always
adapted to constantly changing times. We are (Mvud of our
home and of our staff, who are always striving to give you the
very best in unmatched service and thoughtfiilness.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Your love of the holidays cre-
ates a special bond between you
and the people in your life. Use
this as a way of building stron-
ger relationships that will carry
over well beyond this time.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
A new approach could go a long
way toward resolving a painful
estrangement, especially at this
holiday time. And since your
aspects favor friendship this
week, why not go ahead and
try it'.'

GEMINI (May 21 to June
20) Your positives continue
to dominate, and any negative
factors that squeeze in can be
dealt with easily. The secret is
to tackle them at once and not
allow them to benefit by your
neglect.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Good news: A colleague's re-
marks could help you move to-
ward ultimately resolving that
persistent workplace situation.
Meanwhile, enjoy the holidays
with loved ones.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
No one reflects the bright holi-
day more than all you Leos and
Leonas who love the shimmer
and glimmer of the season.
PS.: There just might be a very
sf)ecial something from Santa.

VIRGO (August 23 to Sep-
tember 22) Celebrate the holi-
days by being more receptive
to new experiences. Overriding
the Virgo reluctance to try new
things could be the best gift
you've given yourself in a long
while.

LIBRA (Septeber 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Good news about a
loved one makes the holidays
even more festive. Expect

some unexpected gifts, so be
prepared with a few nicely
wrapped packages of goodies
to offer in return.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 2 1 ) The holiday season
provides an opportunity to meet
new people, some of whom you
might even consider "w()rthy"
enough to join the Scorpio's se-
lect group of friends.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) You al-
ways bring your own wonder-
ful sparkle and light to the holi-
days, and don't be surprised
if this year someone special
reaches out to respond to your
warmth in kind.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Togetherness
is the dominant theme for the
Goat's holiday celebrations
this year. That means reaching
out to bring everyone you care
for into your very own special
circle of light.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A reminder of a
very special moment from the
past makes the holidays more
memorable for the romantic
Aquarian. New friendships
hold the promise of a romantic
future as well .

PISCES (February 19 to March
20) Getting into the swim of
things for all you party-loving
ttsceans is easy enough this
holiday season. And, of course,
you can expect to impress peo-
ple wherever you go.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
dedication brings you the suc-
cess you strive for, and your
generosity impels you to reach
out and help others on their
way up.

hours trying to keep these
traditions of safe boating,
sailing, sportsmanship and
volunteerism alive.

This year, after a foggy
start the first day, the sailors
returned for the second day
to find many of their sail-
boats swamped or sunk at
the mooring.

With the help of a number
of volunteers. Harbormaster
Morrissey coordinated and
recovered thirteen sailboats
that had sunk during the
nighttime storm.

With a new pump that the
Harbormaster Department
had purchased this year,
the boats were raised by the
Harbormaster and towed to
the Maritime Center docks
with the help of the Quincy
Police vessel Alert and Of-
ficer Bob Bell .

Swimmers at Quincy "s
beaches will be able to swim
more safely next summer
thanks to a grant received
by the Quincy Beaches and
Coastal Commission.

The $2^00 grant award-
ed by the Blue Hills Com-
munity Health Alliance will
be used to install swimming
safety buoys at Front Beach
in Adams Shore.

A previous grant re-
ceived last year funded the
installation of buoys along
Back Beach - also in Ad-

increasingly concerned by
the number of boats operat-
ing close to Quincy 's shore-
line.

"1 swim for exercise and
I felt that some of the boats
were jeopardizing my safe-
ty, often coming really close
to the beach." Innis said.
"I think boaters aren't used
to seeing people swim at
Quincy's beaches again."

After first making some
homemade buoys out of
empty water cooler bottles,
Innis volunteered to write

ams Shore -as well as along the grant applications that
Edgewater Drive in Houghs secured the funding to pur-

Neck.

The safety buoys were
the brainchild of Adams
Shore resident Laura in-
nis. The Health Education
& Outreach Coordinator
for the state Department of
Public Health, Irmis became

chase and install the more
visible, regulation safety
buoys.

Working in collabora-
tion with the Quincy Parks
Department - which installs
the buoys - the Coastal
Commission hopes to even-
tually seek funding to have

the markers installed at all
of Quincy's beaches.

To support those efforts,
Innis said her husband, mu-
sician Ben Porter, plans to
hold a benefit concert fea-
turing his band, desolation
angel, sometime in the fu-
ture.

Ultimately, she said, the
goal is to not only improve
the safety of Quincy 's beach-
es, but to raise awareness of
how much their water qual-
ity has improved so that one
day, Quincy's beaches will
be filled with bathers and
swimmers as they were in
generations past.

"Swim buoys will do a
lot more than protect the
safety of swimmers at our
neighborhood beaches," In-
nis said. "They'll serve as
a constant visual reminder
that the water really is clean
and safe for swimming."

Councillors-elect Attend Orientation Session

Laforest^ Palmucci Praise
Coughlin^s ^Council College^

City In Line For $8M For
2nd Phase Of Concourse

By LAURA GRIFFIN

Ward 3 Councillor Kevin
Coughlin organized a five-
hour orientation session for
the city's two new council-
lors recently and both novic-
es gave the forum a Double
A rating.

They said they appreci-
ated Coughlin's efforts to
inform them prior to the for-
mal 2010 session scheduled
to begin Jan. 4.

Coughlin is expected
to be elected City Council
President when the council
reorganizes in January.

Ward 4 Councillor-Elect
Brian Palmucci described
the Saturday session as
'Council College' and de-
clared he'd learned a lot as
did his colleague Ward 1
Councillor-Elect Margaret
Laforest.

Both Laforest and Pal-
mucci won contested elec-
tions for their ward council
seats at the Nov. 3 election
and will be sworn in as
councillors on Jan. 4.

Neither has served on
the council in the past so
Coughlin planned a Satur-
day workshop patterned af-
ter the one he enjoyed eight
years ago when he was first
elected to City Council.

"I still to this day main-
tain the packet," Coughlin

MARGARET LAFOREST

said, referring to the stack of
basic materials pertaining to
city government that he was
given in 2001.

Ward 2 Councillor Dan-
iel Raymondi organized
the original orientation and
joined Coughlin, Council-
lor John Keenan and Ward
5 Councillor Douglas Gutro
in welcoming the new coun-
cil members and discussing
their duties.

"It was a helpful opportu-
nity that Margaret and I had
to discuss the workings of
the City Council," Palmucci
said after the forum.

Laforest found the orien-
tation, " a great opportunity
to talk to some of the city of-
ficials."

On hand for the ses-
sion were City Clerk Jo-

seph Shea, Chief Assessor
Marion Fantucchio, Build-
ing Inspector Jay Duca and
Planning Director Dennis
Harrington.

Shea outlined the work-
ings of a council session,
the rules, procedures and
processes while Duca ex-
plained his department and
the procedure for filing
complaints.

Both Keenan and Fan-
tucchio focused on finances.
Keenan explained the du-
ties of the Finance Com-
mittee which he chairs and
the power of the council in
reviewing budgets, expendi-
tures and requests for funds.

Fantucchio described
the role of the assessors in
setting the tax rate and the
abatement process while
Harrington outlined the
workings of the Planning
Department and Planning
Board.

In addition, Harrington
explained the purpose and
uses of the new Site Plan
Review revamped recently
by City Council

'There was a lot of give
and take," said Coughlin, re-
ferring to questions from the
new councillors and anec-
dotes provided by the speak-
ers to illustrate issues.

Laforest said she better
understood council proce-

dures, such as distinctions
between motions and or-
ders."

There was a lot of "good
information." Laforest said,
adding, "You're always
learning, talking and asking
questions."

"It offered me a better
understanding of how to
deliver basic city services,",
said Palmucci who's already
received more than a half-
dozen calls from his con-
stituents.

Residents' calls and e-
mails to Palmucci included
questions on traffic, reports
of speeding, tree limbs in the
street, plowing and taxes.

And those were just from
his first days as a councillor-
elect representing the busy
West Quincy area.

Several residents report-
ed an illegal 8-foot height
extension of the billboard on
Willard Street which Duca
rectified.

Palmucci said he also
appreciated a one-on-one
meefing with Mayor Thom-
as Koch who welcomed the
new councillors-elect and
offered his services in the
future.

Coughlin plans a final
session focused on the Open
Meeting Law and Ethics.
Under recent state legisla-
tion aimed at government
reform at all levels, Cough-
lin said the ethics compo-
nent is essential.

"All court, city and state
employees must -participate
in ethics training," Cough-
lin said, describing the new
legislation which became
effective in August.

Little Q Hot Pot
Owner Signs Off
Quincy Mall Spot

Little Q Hot Pot, a popu-
lar Asian restaurant at Quin-
cy Fair Mall, kept the city's
feet to the fire for nearly a
year as its owners legally
challenged their eviction
notice.

Now it's over.

The restaurant owners
agreed to vacate their Han-
cock Street spot by Jan. 15,
according to City Solicitor
James Timmins.

"We have a settlement,"
Timmins said when he an-
nounced last week that the
restaurant owners and the
city reached an accord.

No details on the reloca-
tion agreement were avail-
able as the settlement is sub-
ject to a final review by the
state's Bureau of Relocation
of the Department of Hous-
ing and Redevelopment.

The Little Q Hot Pot's
departure will finally empty
the Quincy Mall of its last
tenant and allow the city to

access some $8 million in
stimulus grants for the Con-
course project.

A portion of the Quincy
Mall building lies in the path
of the Quincy Concourse
and was scheduled for de-
molition last spring.

The federal stimulus
grant was awarded subject
to a 'shovel -ready' timetable
beginning in March.

"The parties are happy it's
behind them," said Timmins
of the case which threatened
to tie up the Concourse proj-
ect in a prolonged civil dis-
pute. We think it's a produc-
tive settlement of a disputed
claims that is respectful of
both parties," he added.

The owners of Little Q
Hot Pot were not available
for comment prior to dead-
line but a worker said the
restaurant will close Jan. 10
and relocate to Boston with
an opening planned for May
or June.

HANGING CHANDEUERS

If chandelier earrings are big
now. they are going to get even
bigger, both in size and popularity.
Styles that feature bold, colored
gemstones that cascade down
from the ears and frame the face
add a touch of glamour during
the day or night. Dazzling drops
add a touch of sophistication to
simple outfits. One of the hottest
styles is vintage-look chandelier
earrings, which often feature
pearls and multiple matching
gemstones. Lace-like filigree
styles also add a shimmering
effect that recalls the romanticism
of bygone eras. Whatever style
is chosen, chandelier earrings
have proven themselves to be a
favorite fashion accessory.

taken an upswing as well,
according to city officials.

Compared to the same
five months (July-Novem-
ber) last year, trash tonnage
has increased 174 tons while
recycling has increased 54

indicate a 1,116 decrease in
trash tons and a 27 1 -ton in-
crease in recycling over the

expansion."

The $8.1 million project
is the second phase of the
three-phase Quincy Con-
course project. It includes
1 ,900 feet of roadway con-
struction and realignment.
Quincy Fair will be demol-
ished.

The road will connect
with the Paul Harold Bridge
that gives motorist and pe-
destrian access over the rail
corridor. The Phase II proj-
ect will connect the final
phase of the overall project,
which is now under con-
struction by the city.

Infrastructure invest-
ments are important pieces
of Governor Patrick's Mas-
sachusetts Recovery Plan,
which combines state, fed-
eral, and, where possible,
private efforts to provide
immediate and long-term
relief and position the Com-
monwealth for recovery.

"New Quincy Center
will be the largest job cre-
ator and the largest engine
for new economic growth
in our City's history total-
ing more than $1 billion in
private investment, and the
Quincy Center Concourse
is absolutely vital to making
it happen," said Mayor Tom
Koch.

"Governor Patrick and
our entire federal delegation
deserve great credit for their
focus and hard work on a
project that will ultimately
create more than 7,000 jobs
in Quincy."

Delahunt, who recalled
the proposal for revitaliza-
tion of the downtown area
years ago when he was a
city councilor, said he was
happy to finally see it come

to fruition.

"This is a win-win," said
Delahunt. "It was an excel-
lent choice. It was a good
decision for the governor.
His decision was critical in
the revitalization project.

"The fruits are obvious.
Today is a new beginning

Mayor Tom Koch praised
the project for the jobs it will
generate immediately and
more permanent jobs when
it is completed.

"New Quincy Center

focus and hard work on a
project that will ultimately
create more than 7.0(K) jobs

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

• On Dec. 28, 1869, the

Knights of Labor, a labor
union of tailors in Philadel-
phia, hold the first Labor
Day ceremonies in Ameri-
can history. The Knights of
Labor was established as a
'Secret society of Pennsyl-
vanian tailors earlier in the
year.

• On Dec. 29, 1878, the

first game is played between
two teams of the "first pro-
fessional baseball league
in Cuba. Baseball had first
been introduced in Cuba
around 1864, when some
students returned home
from studying in the United
States and introduced their
fellow islanders to the bat
and ball.

• On Jan. 3, 1892, leg-
endary author John Ronald
Reuel Tolkien is bom in
Bloemfontein, South Af-
rica. In 1925, he became a
professor at Oxford. As the
legend goes, Tolkien found
a blank page in a student's
examination book while
grading papers one day and
wrote on it: "In a hole in the
ground there lived a hob-
bit." This idea grew into the
eminently successful chil-
dren's book "The Hobbit."

• On Dec. 30, 1905,

French driver Victor Hem-
ery, driving a gasoline-
powered Darracq automo-

bile, sets a new land-speed
record in Aries-Salon,
France. He reached a speed
of 109mph.

• On Jan. 2, 1941, the

Andrews Sisters record
"Boogie Woogie Bugle
Boy" on Decca Records.
The song became a classic
World War II hit. The An-
drews Sisters were the most
popular "girl group" of their
time, selling millions of re-
cords and setting the stage
for the "girl group era" of
the mid-1960s.

• On Jan. 1, 1951, the

Zenith Radio Corp. of Chi-
cago demonstrates the first
pay television system. The
company sent movies over
the airway via scrambled
signals, and the 300 fami-
lies who participated in the
test could send telephone
signals to decode the mov-
ies for $ 1 each.

• On Dec. 31, 1978,

flags at both the American
embassy in Taipei and the
Taiwanese embassy in the
United States are lowered
for the last time as U.S. rela-
tions with Taiwan officially
come to an end. On Jan. 1 ,
1979, the United States of-
ficially recognized the gov-
ernment of the People's Re-
public of China in Beijing.

Sunbeams history this week.

And we hope our readers don't
mind.

For many years, the Christmas is-
sue has featured a letter to Santa from
Henry Bosworth, the founder of The
Quincy Sun. In his letter Henry sug-
gested presents for local officials and
other residents that Santa could drop
off while in Quincy Christmas Eve.

So, again, this year, in the spirit
of Christmas and more so in Henry's
memory we offer our own list of
goodies - some serious and others
humorous.

J^fERRY CHRISTMAS
from QUINCX MASS.

Largest Christmas Tree in United States.
85 feet high contributed by Retail Merchants.

CONTINUING WITH A Christmas tradi-
tion in The Quincy Sun, this is the 15th year
that we have featured this postcard that was
published 75 years ago in 1934. This 85-foot
fabricated Christmas tree was decorated
with 600 lights and two stars on top that
blinked alternatively. The Merchants Divi-
sion of the Quincy Chamber of Commerce

erected the tree. This year the Granite Trust
Company building is marking its 80th year
having been erected in 1929 by Theophilus
King, who was president of the bank for
over 50 years. The first floor banking hall
is now home to a branch of The Bank of
America. To contact Tom Galvin, e-mail

Christmas Lights And Music In Germantown

By KATHY HOGAN

Everyone at the rotary
was delighted as Gabriella
Sharpe delivered her beau-
tiful rendition of "Mary's
Boy Child" in the clear,
cool night air. It was Thurs-
day, Dec. 3 at 6 p.m. when
people gathered to see the
Christmas Tree Lighting in
Germantown.

In her senior year at Mil-
ton Academy, Gabby came
back to share her warm,
rich vocals with everyone.
Among the crowd that was
there, a treat was in store for
those who had never had the
pleasure of hearing her sing
before, as well as for those
who had heard her sing when

she attended Snug Harbor
and Central Schools.

That included organizer
Grace Raymondi of the
Crowley Court-Obrien Tow-
ers Association , Kathy Quig-
ley, director of the German-
town Neighborhood Center,
Jean Kennedy, commission-
er of the Quincy Housing
Authority, Jay Mac Ritchie,
director of QHA, David Fer-
ris, QHA maintenance di-
rector, Mark Kennedy, QHA
maintenance. Councillor
Leo Kelly, Councillor -elect
Margaret Laforest, Council-
lor Doug Gutro, State Rep.
Steve Tobin, Rev. Bill Eng-
lish, pastor of Holy Trinity
Church, Bill Mitchell and

several community police
officers who helped with the
traffic, deejay Ken McCon-
nell, and volunteers Brian
Shields, Pat Kennedy, Jean
Kennedy, Janet Bergermeis-
ter and many others from
the Germantown Neighbor-
hood Center.

Santa Claus made an
appearance, of course, and
joined in singing "Santa
Claus is coming to Town"
and "Jingle Bells: with all
the families who attended.

Larry Shea and Kathy
Hogan of the choir at Our
Lady of Good Counsel
helped lead the singing and
Frank Hogan passed out
candy canes, to the delight

of the 'children

When then lights were
switched on, red and white
bulbs lit up several trees on
the Germantown rotary. Af-
terward, the crowd walked
over the Germantown Cen-
ter for cake and punch.

Sponsored by the Harbor-
view Residents Committee,
this is the 24th year for the
Germantown Christmas tree
lighting. Ms. Raymondi of-
fers kudos to the Parks De-

Merrymount School Spreads Holiday Cheer To Overseas Troops

Community Supports Efforts
To Ship 50 Care Packages

By JO-ANNE HURLEY

On behalf of the Merry-
mount School families who
came together to send care
packages to members of our
military serving overseas,
we would like to extend our
sincere appreciation to those
who made generous dona-
tions to our effort.

Those donations made
it possible for us to send a
total of 50 packages to our
military in Afghanistan,
Kuwait and 17 countries in
Africa. Dozens of children
wrote letters made colorful
artwork to send in the pack-
ages: these were messages
of thankfulness, hope and
cheer.

A special thanks to the
Broad Meadows Worker

Bees for their tremendous
help and leadership with our
children.

Wonderfully caring and
giving members of our
Quincy community brought
treats to send and donations
to cover the cost. It was a
truly amazing experience
from start to finish and we
are grateful to all who joined
us sending a thank you gift
to the troops this Christmas
season .

Our packages went to
Marine security detachments
in Abidjan, Cote D'lvoire;
Abuja, Nigeria; Accra, Gha-
na; Algiers, Algeria; Ba-
mako, Mali; Cairo, Egypt;
Conakry, Guinea; Drakar.
Senegal; Lagos, Nigeria;
Lome, Togo; Monrovia,

Packages also went to
Quincy friends serving with

and the U.S. Army in Af-
ghanistan.

Many people were instru-
ment in making this effort a
success including: Arthur
and Shirley Tobin, Rep. Ste-
phen Tobin, Sen. Michael
Mornssey, Ward 4 Council-
lor Jay Davis, and Ward 1
Councillor-elect Margaret
Laforest.

Ann Pegg, pnncipal of
Merrymount School and
the amazing group of pro-
fessionals who work with
her and engage our children
each day, gave us their sup-
port and encouragement as
well as donations.

Retiring Ward 1 Councillor Kelly Reflects On A Proud Legacy And Looks Toward The Future

Leo's Leaving The Council . . . But Adds: 'Vm Not Done'

By LAURA GRIFFIN

In politics as in baseball,
the old saw uttered by Yogi
Berra's tits, "It ain't over til
it's over."

And tor Ward 1 Council-
lor Leo Kelly, his political
career is far from over, "I'm
not done, absolutely not
done "

"You haven't heard the
last of me," Kelly said dur-
ing an interview focused
on his decades" working for
Quincy and the city's resi-
dents.

Last summer, he passed
on a run for a tenth term as
city councillor, so his last
meeting was Monday after
The Quincy Sun deadline.

At the outset of the in-
terview, Kelly said that he's
now looking to the State
House. "I'm thinking of run-
ning for state representative.
I'm very serious about it."

Right now, there's no
opening on the state level
so Kelly put that discussion
on the back burner as he
discussed his legacy as city
councillor for 18 years and
his lifetime as an active citi-
zen devoted to Quincy, par-
ticularly Houghs Neck.

Kelly said he will con-
tinue as chairman of the
Beaches and Coastal Com-
mission.

Chief among Kelly's
accomplishments are his
success in protecting open
space, the harbor, and his
success in creating Manet
Community Health Center.
Open Space

Kelly leaves the City
Council just as the fed-
eral government is about
to spend the $7 million he
helped obtain for one of his
favorite projects, the revital-
ization of the Broad Mead-
ows marshes.

"They have the moneys'' ,
Kelly said. He described the

\

LEO KELLY

design for creeks, the pro-
tection of the hummocks,
and the projected removal of
elephant grass as major im-
provements for the public.

"You'll be able to canoe.
There'll be passive recre-
ation," Kelly said, adding,
"You'll be able to kayak out
of there."

Kelly envisions access
from the pier planned by the
city with Thayer Academy
on the parkland off Southern
Artery.

"That's why it's so im-
portant to get something
going at the tide mill; Broad
Meadows overlooks the tide
mill area, that waterfront.
So we will have both sides
of it owned by the city," ex-
plained Kelly.

With elephant grass erad-
icated, the chance of fires
will be cut, according to
Kelly who called the grass
"very dangerous."

It's only right that the
federal government is foot-
ing the bill, according to
Kelly who said that, prior
to the 1940's and before his
time, federal agencies dam-
aged Broad Meadows.

"They dredged the chan-
nels and dumped the silt.
They brought it into the bay
and dumped it."

Developers, utilities, the
state and the city also devel-
oped marshes.

They were still develop-

ing marshland tor projects
"just 30-40 years ago, not
that long ago." noted Kelly
who cited the State Street
buildings on Newport Av-
enue which were built on
marsh in the 1970's as were
homes in Squantum and
Houghs Neck.

At different times, he
said planners eyed marsh-
lands for an electric plant
for Edison, the relocation of
Quincy College, and a sec-
ond sewage treatment plant
for the Metropolitan District
Commission (MDC).

It was his love of the
marshland near his own
home that first brought Kel-
ly into the open space fray.

"They tried to develop
that, private and city," said
Kelly, adding that after it
was declared open space, "A
lot of it was donated by the
people who owned it."

"I stopped them from
filling that in," said Kelly
of the nearby marshland.
"They weren't protected.
The MDC wanted to build
a huge secondary sewage
plant there. It would have
destroyed that area."

"Now, it's untouchable,"
said Kelly who declined to
discuss his views on a wind
turbine project on Nut Is-
land.

"1 don't want to put any-
one in a box," said Kelly,
leaving that debate to his
successor.

There's no debate on
Houghs Neck's beauty, ac-
cording to Kelly who cited
just two spectacular views in
his ward. Few, he said, can
match the panoramic view
of Boston Harbor from Nut
Island or the glorious sight
of The Crusher, another area
he worked to protect.
Clean Harbor

Blocking the plans for a
second sewage processing

plant in Houghs Neck in the
late 1970's wasn't easy as
Kelly recalls.

The opponents had to
prove the harbor waters were
contaminated from the aged
plant then operating at Nut
Island and the MDC wasn't
buying that argument.

Kelly and other oppo-
nents cited the constant
spillage from the existing
sewage plant as a threat to
not only the bay water, but
to residents.

"It used to spill over into
Quincy Bay," Kelly said of
the sewage overflow from
Nut Island that he remem-
bered from his youth. "The
MDC denied it."

At one of the meetings
with the MDC, Kelly said a
Squantum doctor, "brought
jars of polluted water." That
still was not enough.

The battle wasn't won un-
til the late 1970's when local
boats acquired scum up to
the watermark, a song was
written about "Dirty Water,"
and Governor Michael Du-
kakis got sunk nationally for
the filth in the harbor.

"The turning point was
when the City of Quincy
brought the MDC to court,"
said Kelly who worked with
residents from both sides of
Quincy Bay to prevent the
sewage plant and what had
looked to be inevitable.
Empty Beaches

Once the harbor waters
were clean, local leaders
strove to entice people back
to the beaches, according to
Kelly who outlined the goal
of the Beaches and Coastal
Commission.

"I'm going to stay with
that," said Kelly who was ap-
pointed chairman by Mayor
James Sheets when the com-
mission was formed.

"The cleanup was done,
but the beaches were emp-

ty," recalls Kelly, explaining
the goals of the commis-
sion which sponsors sum-
mer events, a kite festival,
a beach guide, and 'beach
bashes" to attract young
people.

"We promote the beach-
es," said Kelly who be-
lieves the efforts are work-
ing and praised the efforts
of the commission's vice-
chairman Councillor Doug
Gutro, Ward 5.

"1 had a lot to do with
discouraging people from
going in the water when it
was polluted," said Kelly. "I
had an obligation to encour-
age people to come back and
use the bay.

"It's as clean as it can be.
You get a better swim than
you get in your swimming
pool and it's free, probably
the only thing free left in the
world."

John Hancock plunge in
January which raises over
$7,000 a year for Interfaith
Services.
Neglected Quincy Hero

Kelly said it was his idea
to name the January fund-
raiser after John Hancock,
the revolutionary hero and
Quincy native who signed
the Declaration of Indepen-
dence first as President of
the Continental Congress.

"I've been trying to pro-
mote John Hancock in the
City of Quincy for years,"
said Kelly. "I don't think
he gets the recognition he
should. I think he would
be a tremendous tourist at-
traction if you developed it
properly."

Kelly said that everyone
in the country, probably the
world, knows John Han-
cock's signature and "he
should be recognized" as
even more important than
the Adams'.

As for the signature, Kel-
ly said, "He did that know-
ing every day that he could
be hung, literally hung."

removal in Ward I , Ward 2
and parts of Ward 5.

"Our drivers and staff
worked hard, we had great
cooperation from the Police
Department, our residents
did their part, and the pri-
vate contractors are working

toward new levels of effi-
ciency." Koch said.

Department of Public
Works Lawrence Prendev-
ille said a few adjustments
will be needed for future
storms, but said overall the
weekend storm showed
clear signs of improved per-
formance and responsibility
from snow contractors.

"With accountability and
efficiency comes higher per-
formance, and we should
see that trend continue as

winter moves forward." he
said. "Ultimately, it will
mean that other resources
can be allocated elsewhere,
and in the end, that's where
we will see cost-savings."

Prendeville estimated
the total cost of the storm
at about $25().0(X) and that
includes $62 per ton of salt,
and $12.50 per ton of sand;
the Riley Brothers contract;
about 50 additional private
trucks and overtime for City

Leo's Leaving The Council
But Adds: 'I'm Not Done'

Cont'd From Pas^e 10

"He and Sam Adams
are probably the cause of
the Hrst shot (in the revolu-
tion)," said Kelly who de-
scribed Hancock as a "down
to earth kind of gu> "" but not
as wild as Sam Adams.

It is at the site of Han-
cock's birthplace, the Ad-
ams Academy, that Kelly
took one of his early stands
in protecting local history
and the environment.

It wa.sn't easy, but very
satisfying, according to Kel-
ly who said this was long
before any of the current
overseers of the building
were in office.

"They were going to
brick in the windows at Ad-
ams Academy. They wanted
the wall space inside. It
would have looked like a
warehouse.

"The brick was already
purchased to close up the
windows. All the bricks
were on palettes beneath the
windows ready to go.

"We stopped it. Those
windows that are there now.
Behind that is a wall. We
saved the windows" with
what Kelly calls " a little bit
of ingenuity.

"1 took a lot of abuse.
They said it was none of my
business," recalled Kelly
who describes the victory as
"one of my proudest accom-
plishments. I'm very proud
of that because it would
have been disastrous."

Not only is the site the
location of Hancock's birth-
place, but also a panel at
Adams Academy is from his
original birthplace, "from
the wall of the parsonage
where Hancock was bom."

Manet Health Center

Kelly is known for his
work on open space and the
environment, as the harbor
is clean, and the blues, the
flounder and the bass are
coming back.

However, Kelly is just as
proud of his work in initiat-
ing the Manet Community
Health Center as he is of any

achievement in his career.

Thanks to an influx of
federal funds through Hous-
ing and Urban Development
(HUD) in the 1970's, Kelly
and city officials set up the
community center in Houghs
Neck which housed the Ma-
net Community Health Cen-
ter, a community center and
a local library.

"Its pretty isolated,"
Kelly said of Houghs Neck
where residents, especially
senior citizens lacked access
to good health care. At that
time, it was even more iso-
lated."

The resident had little ac-
cess to quality health care
until Manet was formed and
now there are five centers in
the city and one in Hull.

"We started Manet. We
worked on it. We found a
director, Diane Luby," said
Kelly who called the health
center one of the first in the
state.

"1 think Neponset (Health
Center) was before it," said
Kelly.

"Almost Joey's," a local
barroom, was demolished
to make way for the center
which eventually featured
not only the health center,
but a local branch of the
library and a community
room.

No one cried over "Al-
most Joey 's" demise , accord-
ing to Kelly who described
its boisterous clientele.

"It was terrible place, a
hang-out. They used to sit
up on the roof. They drove
the poor neighbors crazy,"
recalled Kelly of the tavern
at Sea and Macy Sts.

"Now they've got one of
the quietest neighborhoods
in the city." Said Kelly.

The health center is still
operating but the public li-
brary was closed and a com-
munity library of lending
and sharing pre-read books
is in its place.

The HUD funds flowed
freely into Houghs Neck
at they time and were also
used for home improvement
loans, grants and municipal
projects.

"We surfaced every street
in Houghs Neck with money
from HUD," Kelly said.
Politics and Home

Kelly grew up in Houghs
Neck where he learned to
love the beaches and ocean
and community.

As a youth, he dug clams
with former mayor Frank

McCauley and recalls pock-
eting a good income from
the digs, as did "a lot of kids
on the mudflats."

In those years, the farm
of George Hodgkinson, the
rhubarb king, was thriving
in Germantown.

Hodgkinson would send
a bus over to Kelly's neigh-
borhood where he recruited
young workers to plant,
cut rhubarb, pick tomatoes,
package the bounty, weed,
and turn the ground.

"I liked the farming,"
said Kelly, adding that at
that time, "If you couldn't
eat it, you didn't grow it.
Now, it's all flowers."

Kelly attended the
Atherton Hough Elemen-
tary School, Central Middle
School and graduated from
Quincy High School. He
joined the United States
Navy and served as a Boat-
swain 2"*^ class from 1950-
54 during the Korean War
but was not assigned to the
Pacific or combat.

On his return, he became
a skilled barber and became
involved in community ser-
vice as chairman of Sgt.
Lawrence Grenham Center
for boys and giris.

It wasn't a big step to
run for ward councillor and
Kelly concentrated on his
council work until he was
appointed to the Quincy
Housing Authority. He then
dropped off the council for
ten years.

The 77-year-old Kelly
said he's grateful to his
campaign manager George
Murphy and the committee
that's helped him through
campaigns and elections for
the past 20-years, including
his return to the office for
the past six years.

And he believes they'll
be with him for his next
challenge.

Kelly, also, credited his
significant other Margaret
Milne for his success as
well.

"She's a super help and I
love her very much," Kelly
said of the woman he calls
his soul mate for 20 years
and the "love of his life."

Kelly and Milne live not
far from Kelly's boyhood
home where his sister Bema-
dette now lives. His brother
Jack lives in West Quincy,
Edward in Tucson, AZ and
his brother, the late Joseph
Kelly, lived in Bridgewater.

A Job Well Done

On Thursday, Dec. 10, at approximately 10:21 a.m.,
Quincy Police Communications received a call from a
woman stating that her male tenant was unresponsive
in his bedroom. She also said that he was in possession
ot a firearm.

Officers James Goldrick,
Steve O'Donoghue, James
Cassidy and Fallon Ambu-
lance were dispatched to the
Quincy Point address. Upon
arrival. Officer Cassidy met
with the caller, who said that
her tenant was now in the
bathroom. The officers ap-
proached the bathroom and
asked the tenant to open
the door, which he did. Due
to the information about a
firearm, the tenant was imme-
diately handcuffed, pat frisked and told why the officers
were there.

When asked the whereabouts of the firearm, the ten-
ant said that it was in the top drawer in his room. After
locating the firearm. Officer Cassidy interviewed the
caller, who stated that she owns the house and rented a
bedroom to the man, who claimed to be a Boston Hous-
ing Police Lieutenant and is required to carry a firearm.
She said that the tenant was given permission to keep
the firearm in his room as long as it was stored cor-
rectly.

The caller became concerned for her tenant when he
started acting "bizarre" and she thought he might be de-
pressed. She related an incident yesterday around mid-
night when her tenant, either on drugs or drunk, caused
a disturbance in the kitchen.

He became irate, then claimed to be sick and told her
to leave him alone. The caller said that this placed her in
fear for her safety, so much that she felt uncomfortable
sleeping. She called the Police in the morning after she
couldn't wake the tenant.

Fallon Ambulance evaluated the tenant and then
transported him to Quincy Medical Center. A check
with the state firearms registry revealed that the tenant's
Class A License to Carry Firearms was revoked by Wey-
mouth Police, so Sergeant Duggan responded to Quin-
cy Medical Center and after determining that the tenant
was coherent, read him his Miranda rights.

The tenant waived his right to remain silent, stating
that he is a Security Officer in Boston, but has been out
on injury since May. He also said that he was unaware
that his License to Carry was revoked. He then said that
the gun in his drawer was not his but a friends.

Sergeant Duggan received permission from the ten-
ant to thoroughly search his living quarters. Officer
Cassidy called Officer Brian King of the Weymouth Po-
lice Department Firearms Licensing Unit to find out
why the tenant/suspect's license to carry was revoked in
February 2007. Officer King stated that the tenant/sus-
pect was arrested for Impersonating a Police Officer in
December 2006 and that the tenant/suspect was advised
of this while being served in hand the reason for the re-
vocation.

Officer King stated that he had in his possession the
tenanty suspect's original License to Carry, supporting
the fact that the tenant/suspect was aware of the status
of his License to Carry.

Officer Dan Francis and K9 Officer Paul Foley with
partner Rex, arrived on scene and assisted in the search
of the suspect's room. Officer Foley's K9 partner
is trained and certified to detect the presence of fire-
arms, explosives, and ammunition.

The search came up with the following items; a
Clock 40 Caliber Handgun, 2 Clock Magazines -1 emp-
ty magazine w/10 round capacity and 1 high capac-
ity (13) magazine containing 6 .40 SW rounds, 5 .38
Speed loaders with 6 .38 SW rounds, 1 American Ea-
gle Ammo Box Containing 33 .38 Caliber SW rounds,
1 Box Containing 21 .40 Caliber SW rounds, 1 Bottle
of Oleoresin Capsicum (Mace), a bullet proof vest,
a Boston Police light blue short sleeve dress shirt
with Sergeant stripes on both sleeves, a blue police bub-
ble light, handcuffs, a switch blade knife and baton.

The next step was to contact the owner of the firearm
found in the drawer, who said that he let the tenant/sus-
pect borrow the gun "last year" to go practice shooting
at the range, but was unaware that his license to carry
was revoked.

The suspect, a 47 year-old Quincy resident was re-
leased from the Quincy Medical Center and then placed
into custody for the following charges: 1) Possession of
Firearm w/ out ID 2) Illegal Possession of Ammunition/
Chemical Substance (X2) 3) Unsecured Firearm.

In addition, a restraining order was issued against the
tenant/suspect by the court on behalf of the caller/land-
lord. Nice Work!

Morrissey, Legislators, Keating File Legislation
To Address Definition In Attempted Crimes

State Senator Michael W.
Morrissey (D-Quincy) and
Norfolk County District At-
torney William R. Keating
have been joined by several
state senators and district at-
torneys in filing a bill that
would update the defini-
tion of what is an attempted
crime used by courts for
convictions of individuals.

The legislation, filed
by Morrissey and Keating,
and several Legislators and
District Attorneys across
the Commonwealth, is in
response to a recent Su-
preme Judicial Court ruling
overturning the conviction
of Kerry Van Bell, initially
found guilty of attempted
child rape in 2004. The
court upheld the convic-

tion for soliciting sex with
a child, but found that Van
Bell's preparation did not
come near enough in time
or ability to the crime of
attempted rape to sustain a
guilty verdict.

The Court decision relied
on a case from 1897 in in-
terpreting the definition of
attempt in Massachusetts
Law.

"The Court left the door
op>en for the Legislature,
and specifically stated that
any change to the definition
must be made by the Leg-
islature, and referred to the
Model Penal Code," Morris-
sey said.

Attempted crime issues,
as interpreted by the courts
since the time of Judge Oli-

ver Wendell Holmes, have
required the courts to review
the actions left to take by the
defendant.

"The Worcester District
Attorney's Office did yeo-
man's work in proving the
defendant's actions in prep-
aration of the crime though
solicitation, negotiation, ac-
ceptance of the contract for
sex, and an agreement to
go to the child," Morrissey
said.

"The court's rejection of
attempt in this case high-
lights the fact that it's time
for Massachusetts to adopt
the more modem attempt-
ed crime definition of the
Model Penal Code, which
focuses on the actions taken
by a defendant, rather than

what the defendant had left
to do," he added.

The bill is sponsored by
ten State Senators and three
District Attorneys, includ-
ing Worcester County Dis-
trict Attorney Joseph Early
who prosecuted the Van Bell
case.

Morrissey said "the bill's
sponsors believe that based
on the totality of the situa-
tion, and the facts proved by
District Attorney's Office,
that a more modem defini-
tion of attempt would have
allowed the court to uphold
the conviction, and that it is
time to change the definition
to address this issue and oth-
ers that might be faced by
prosecutors across the Com-
monwealth."

FOR PAIN SUFFERERS, 50 IS THE NEW

Anyone who suffers from
chronic pain can testify that it
can have a debilitating effect.
According to new research, pain

researchers looked at a sample of
individuals aged 50 and older,
they found that those with self-
described "moderate" or "severe"
pain had functional limitations
that were roughly equivalent to
those of a person two to three
decades older. That is to say that
a 50-year-old with significant pain

old without daily pain. Of course,
many pain sufferers address this
problem by taking medication.
However, pain-killing drugs only
mask the symptoms; the drugless
chiropractic approach believes in
getting to the root of the problem
naturally.

Most people see a chiropractor

because there are a lot of
reasons not to drink. Maybe
we can't mix alcohol with

feared falling.

This new study, how-
ever, shows that there is a

groups.

That's a lot of alcohol.

Have seniors developed
a tolerance over the years,
and therefore need to drink
more to get the same re-
sults? The study suggests
this might be the case.

Still, that amount of al-

Yes, there are fewer se-

lot more than those who are

Focus Makes

New Year's

Resolutions Stick

When the calendar turns
to Jan. 1, 2010, many will
choose goals for the new
year.

Patricia M. Ambom,
M.S.M., educator, wellness
author, and expert for TOPS
Club, Inc. (Take Off Pounds
Sensibly), says New Year's
resolutions offer a fresh start
for those with self-improve-
ment intentions.

"With a resolution, it's a
commitment to take care of
what you value," Ambom
shares. "Start with self-love.
If you value yourself, you
will make a concerted effort
to take care of yourself."
Visualize Changes
When forming individ-
ual New Year's resolutions,
start by dreaming a little.
Ambom cites research that
shows people are most pro-
ductive and creative when
relaxed. She suggests taking
advantage of a daydream
state to visualize weight-
loss success.

To be most effective, she
recommends, write resolu-
tions down.

"Scientists have proven
that when you write some-
thing down in the present
tense, your brain thinks
you've already done it, and
believes it. For example, T
am eating better. I am ex-
ercising more. I am getting
appropriate rest,' " Ambom
explains.

Change, even positive,
can be overwhelming, so
start small, she advises. One
way to kick off a new reso-
lution might be to assertive-
ly state it to your household.
Your announcement could
be as simple as, "I want to
make 2010 a healthy year."
List expectations of how
family members can sup-
port this goal . Ambom adds,
"A week or two later, repeat
the statement. Those words
sound assertive and repre-
sent boundaries and expec-
tations being established."
Develop an Action Plan

Define core values as you
work to set and attain goals.
Ambom says, "One way to
define your values is to vi-
sualize yourself at the end
of your life, thinking of the
legacy you want to leave be-
hind. 2010 is a fresh start.
Ask yourself: How do I di-
rect myself to build a foun-
dation for my legacy? The
action plan has to become
specific."

To develop a plan of ac-
tion, set a weight-loss goal
and establish it as a prior-
ity. Recognize obstacles and
double resistance to them.
Build determination. For
example, if pressured to

eat tempting, high-calorie
treats, say, "Thanks, but I'm
not hungry right now." Vi-
sualize saying this in pres-
ent tense, and rehearse turn-
ing down tempting holiday
food.

Take Concrete Steps
Practice new "small pic-
ture" habits while keeping a
focus on the "big picture,"
to fuel motivation. Make the
following changes that can
add up to big improvements
by the end of the year.

Place workout gear by
the front door to minimize
excuses about exercising.

Find a supportive work-
out buddy who has also
resolved to live a healthier
lifestyle. Make regular ap-
pointments with each other
to exercise.

Maintain a food log and
keep track of everything eat-
en during the day to reflect
on your eating habits and as-
sess your diet.

Toss out or give away
treats from the holidays that
are lingering in the house.

Post a "healthy living"
tally on the refrigerator
door. List pounds lost, miles
walked, inches lost, and
other measurable progress.
It's a powerful reminder of
what's been accomplished
and a deterrent to raiding the
refrigerator.

In addition, follow these
recommendations from Am-
bom to make your resolu-
tions stick and promote mo-
tivation.

• Don't moum the past,
when weight was gained. It
wastes time to be mired in
regrets. Simply start your
2010 action plan.

• As weight comes off,
look for hidden rewards.
Every few pounds will yield
additional health benefits.

• Confront negative be-
liefs held by both you and
others. Each of us has "a
rebel inside us" who urges
us to give in to temptations.
Even if we failed in the past,
that doesn't necessarily
mean we'll fail again.

• Take responsibility for
each day. Reflect on how
the day went. If you ate too
much food, recognize it,
move on, and plan for to-
morrow.

• Believe in yourself.
Don't be afraid to ask for
help. TOPS chapter meet-
ings each week are a trea-
sure trove of support.

"Remember this is for
your benefit. You have to
love yourself enough to do
it," says Ambom. "It's about
the kind of life you want to
live in the new year and in
the years ahead."

of floats and marching bands
took part.

"As usual it was a won-
derful event," said Conway-

(ARA) When people
think of winten/.mg their
homes, most often their
heating bills spring to mind
- along with insulation and
weather stripping The win-
ter months bring not onU
high energy bills, but also
an increased chance of cer-
tain kinds of damage to your
home and its contents

A few precautions can
help protect you from seri-
ous losses and disruptions
this season.

INDOOR FLOODS

While home fires make
headlines, water damage
is more common and often
just as severe. The most fre-
quent cause is faulty or bro-
ken pipes. In fact. Fireman's
Fund Personal Risk Con-
sultants see a surge in wa-
ter damage during the first
three months of the year,
when pipes are most likeK
to freeze and burst. Be sure
to insulate exposed pipes.

If you leave your home
to spend time in warmer
climates t)r even just a
weekend on the ski slopes,
always leave the heat on in
your home and set it to at
least 55 degrees. Don't let
high fuel pnces tempt you
into going lower. The pipes
that come in through your
foundation or run through
external walls can reach
temperatures much lower
than the setting on your
thermostat. Have someone
check on your home while
you are away.

A foolproof way to pro-
tect your home from broken
or leaking pipes at any fime

Bob McGillicuddy New Head Coach

Q/NQ Swim & Diving
Team Expecting Big Things

By SEAN BRENNAN

The Quincy/North Quin-
cy swimming and diving
team is looking to make a
splash this winter in the Pa-
triot League and under the
direction of new coach Bob
McGillicuddy, this year's
team has the opportunity to
accomplish just that.

McGillicuddy. a seventh
grade science teacher at
Sterlmg Middle School, has
an impressive swimming/
diving background. He
swam and played water polo
at UMass-Amherst (1983-
1987); he currently began
his 15'*' year as the extramu-
ral swim coach for Sterling
Middle School; he is a coor-
dinator of the Quincy Mid-
dle School Championship
Swim Meet and last year he
was an assistant swim coach
for the South Shore YMCA
Strypers (SSYS) and the
lead coach of the Strypers
summer team.

His experience coach-
ing swimming and diving,
and the talent that his Q/NQ
team possesses should result
in an improvement of the Q/
NQ program this winter.

"This season 1 want the
team to improve upon last
year's result and to get bet-
ter each meet," said McGil-
licuddy. "At our first meet (a
tri-meet against Scituate and
Cohasset High Schools), I

was truly impressed by the
team's camaraderie and the
enthusiasm they displayed
cheering each of their team-
mates on.

"I think the captains cre-
ated a wonderful experience
for the Q/NQ swimmers/
divers and for our competi-
tors. There are a lot of good
swimmers in the Patriot
League, but 1 am hopeful
because of the determina-
tion and tight of all the Q/
NQ swimmers and divers
that we will do well."

Swimming and diving,
according to McGillicuddy,
isn't a sport for the tame. It
takes serious commitment
and dedication, which in-
cludes early morning prac-
tices and afternoon prac-
tices, but this year's Q/NQ
team has already grabbed
hold of these challenges and
has the ability, this winter,
to make waves in the pool.

"With swimming and
diving everyone has the op-
portunity to improve and
take it to the next level," he
said. "It takes commitment
to improve on your goals,
it uses every muscle in the
body. Our goal is to com-
pete and so far I have been
pleased with how the kids
have responded."

On the girls' side, sopho-
more diver Taryn Urbanus,
who McGillicuddy calls

"dynamic," has the talent
to be among the best in the
state. Others swimmers and
divers to watch for include
seniors Hannah Flattery
(captain), Sharon Lee and
Danielle Urbanus, juniors
Leahnora Anderson, Kami-
lah Gonzales, Kendra John-
ston (captain), Madeline
McDonough, Deanne Sori-
celli, Nicolette Soricelli,
Victoria Tan, Heidi Van and
Hillary Wong, sophomores
Kelsey Bina, Andrea Chan,
Bonnie Chen, Samantha
Enbar-Salo, Cindy Luu,
Devin McDonough, Jessica
O'Donovan, Angelica Shin-
cavage and Erin Squarey
and freshmen Amelia Wool,
Leslie David and Jennifer
Chau.

The boys' team is head-
ed by seniors Raymond
Cheung (captain), Cian
O'Connor (captain), Geof-
frey Chen, Mike Ghos-
sorb, Brian Le, Edmund
Ng, Geoffrey Quach, Dylan
Roche, Andrew Tsang and
Wilson Zou, juniors James
Lee, Thomas Nigl, Johnny
Ly and Austin Rowe, soph-
omores Philip Zeng, Chaz
Waterman and Anthony
Chen and freshmen Cyril
Caparanga, Diego Espinola,
Johnson Pong, Emmitt Har-
row, Jeffrey Law, Sheng Li
and Edward Tang.

Freshmen Among Top Performers

Q/NQ Girls Track Opened
Season Against Scituate HS

The Quincy/North Quin-
cy girls' track team opened
their 2009- 10- winter sea-
son on Dec. 15 with a hard-
fought, 66-34, loss to Patriot
League opponent Scituate
High School.

The 33-member team,
which includes 18 fresh-
men, received top perfor-
mances from junior Erica
Brady (winner in the two-
mile) who set the Patriot
League' fastest time in that
event by running a 12:06;
freshman Kayla Sugrue
(55-meter dash); freshman
Rose Bennett (55 -meter
hurdles, high jump and long
jump); freshman Shannon
McCleary (55-meter hur-
dles); senior Mary Schwartz
(300-meters, two-mile and
high jump), freshman Lia
Bonoli (6C)0-meters0; junior
Julie Doyle and freshman
Jennifer Scamici (1000-me-
ters); junior Julie Ross (two-
mile); freshman Jessica Ab-
ban (55-meter winner) and
seniors Cristina Doherty and
Sarah Minton (shot put).

"In all six freshmen
scored and Brady was domi-
nant in the two-mile," said

Q/NQ girls' track coach
Geoff Hennessy. "Abban,
the 55-meter dash winner in
a time of 8.83 is one of those
talented freshman. The team
also swept the two-mile,
taking all three spots.

"We're young and feeling
our way around, but we've
got good upper class leader-
ship and a great staff."

John Green, Kim Dela-
ney, Casey Tate and Fred
Harris assist Hennessy with
the team.

Quincy/North Quincy
Swimming Results

The Q/NQ co-ed swim-
ming team opened the
2009-20 10- winter season
on Dec. 15 at the Lincoln-
Hancock Pool with a tri-
meet against Scituate and
Cohasset High Schools.

The following are the re-
sults of those two meets:
Girls Team

Despite an impressive
season-opening perfor-
mance, the Quincy/North
Quincy High School wom-
en's swimming and diving
team (0-1 overall) slipped
to visitors Cohasset HS, 53-
40, and Scituate HS, 51-42,
in a tri-meet at the Lincoln-
Hancock Pool .

Q/NQ touched the wall
first in five of 11 events
against Cohasset; however,
Cohasset won all three re-
lays to amass almost 40
percent (21 points) of its
total scoring. The hosts also
established an edge by gar-
nering victories in five of
eight individual events ver-
sus Scituate. Scituate took
the final event, the 400-yard
freestyle relay, to earn the
nine-point victory.

Q/NQ was led by junior
captain Kendra Johnston
who erased Hope Kissick's
(Cohasset) body length lead
in the final 25 yards of the
freestyle leg to earn the
meet's best time of 2:25.63
in the 200-yard individual
medley. Johnston's times of
1:16.50 and 1:19.25 in the
100-yard butterfly and 100-
yard breaststroke events, re-
spectively, were the meet's
second-best efforts.

Q/NQ's Hillary Wong
topped the field in the 100-
yard backstroke (1:15.80)
while also clocking the
event's second-best fime
of 2:27.91 in the 200-yard
freestyle. In the meet's
opening event, Wong's 50-
yard backstroke leg of the
2C)0-yard medley relay gave
her teammates the lead.

Freshman Kathryn

O'Coimor debuted with
extraordinary efforts in
both the 100-yard freestyle
(1:01.91) and the 50-yard
version (28.00) of the same
stroke. Both swims mer-
ited the meet's second-best
times.

Boys Team

Q/NQ (0-1 overall) fell
to visiUng Cohasset HS, 58-
22, and Scituate HS, 72-18,
in a tri-meet at the Lincoln-
Hancock Pool on Dec. 15.

Led by Edmund Ng, the
senior class paced Q/NQ.
Ng's efforts of 2:29.60 and
7:36.16 in the 200-yard
and 500-yard freestyle
events earned the meet's
second-best times. Class-
mate and team captain Cian
O'Connor swam 1:00.56 in
the 100-yard freestyle for
second overall. In half the
distance, O'Connor clocked
the meet's fourth-best ef-
fort of 26.87 in the 50-yard
free.

Freshman Emmitt Har-
row swam a 1:01.78 in the
100-yard freestyle.

Both teams swam and
dove in a tri-meet with
Pembroke and Norwood
High Schools yesterday
(Tuesday) at the Lincoln-
Hancock Pool.

ing, but heartbreaking, 43-40

senior captain Cara Murtagh
(six points, 11 rebounds,
eight assists), with produc-
tion also coming from junior
Emily Gray (10 points, six
rebounds) and senior captain
Devon McKay (11 points).

With Murtagh, McKay
and Anna Holcomb as the
only seniors on the team
this winter, juniors Montana
McBimey (captain), Kelsey

Powers and Gray along with
sophomores Amber Jones,
Courtney Timmins, Shannon
Blaser, Olivia Umoren, Julia
Murphy and Erin Renken
will be asked to carry some
of the offensive and defen-
sive production.

North Quincy traveled
to Silver Lake High School

City Councillor at-Large
Joe Finn and Family

It would be to stop world
hunger because many people
are dying from starvation
and if everyone donated one
food item this Christmas we
could help stop world hun-
ger.

Andrew McGuinness

*

It would be for everyone
to have good medical care.
That is important for the
whole world.

Thomas Tran

Sacred Heart School

It would be for world
peace. Some countries don't
get along so I'd want them
to get along and to not have
any wars with other coun-
tries. I also want the home-
less to have homes to live
in.

Liam Tollenger
Merrymount School

It would be for my fam-
ily to have a great life and
achieve all their goals. I
want this for my life be-
cause I have everybody in
my family. This is all 1 need
for one wish - a great life
for my great family.
David Jean-Baptiste
Merrymount School

It would be for that 1 get
lots of gifts for everyone
in my family. I would get
everything on my list and
more! The top-five things
on my list that I would get

would be the newest phone,
an Ipod touch, a pet monkey
named Steve, my own five
star hotel, and a 100-inch
TV to hang in my room. I
would give 30 gifts to the
homeless.
Kevin Hurley
Merrymount School

It would be for world
peace because it would be
nice to end war and vio-
lence. I think it would be
nice because then people
who are in the war can stay
with their families instead of
fighting for us.
Stephanie Stadler
Merrymount School *

It would be for world
peace. I want everyone to
agree to stop the wars and
have all the soldiers come
back. Each and every coun-
try should be free to do what
they want.

Evan Bausemer
Merrymount School

It would be to get a lot
of toys and gifts. I love toys
and gifts. 1 like opening gifts
on Christmas. I like giving
gifts to my friends and my
family too.

Crystal Whynot
Merrymount School

It would be for world
peace because thousands of
people die every year from
wars, terrorist attacks and
much more. Without world
peace, some people can't

go outside because of wars.

Those are the reasons I want

world peace.

Michael O'Brien
Merrymount School

It would be to have the
best Christmas ever. I would
want to have a great time
on Christmas Eve with my
family. I want to have lots of
fun with my cousins.

Andrew Kraunelis

It would be world peace
because people have been
fighting and some people
have been having rough
times. I want the world to
be magnificent. No more
fights!

Kevin Wong

It would be to have a
beautiful, brand new Irish
step dress. It would be navy
blue with dark pink and
neon green embroidery that
would look good on me. It
would also have a five-panel
skirt that has nice white lac-
ing at the bottom.

Ryley McCarron

It would be for President

It would be to preserve
the rainforests. 1 want this
wish because the trees give

oxygen. Also, the ramforest

birds live in the trees. If we

Quincy Point Con-
gregational Church, 444
Washington St., will hold a
Christmas Eve Candlelight
Service Thursday, Dec. 24
at 6:30 p.m.

A new Christmas song.
"Put a Candle in the Win-
dow," will be sung at the
Candlelight service.

The original song is a
collaboration between Pro-
fessor Delvyn Case who
composed the music and
The Rev. Ann Suzedell who
wrote the words.

The song is a respon.se
to the episode in the Christ-
mas story when Joseph and
Mary are on their way from
Nazareth to Bethlehem and
seek shelter at their destina-

tion. The title of the song
comes from the Irish custom
of putting alighted candle
in the window of a house
on Christmas Eve, signify-
ing welcome to Mary and
Joseph.

The song is dedicated to
the spirit of Fr. Bill McCa-
rthy who was a persistent
advocate for those whose
lives are burdened by home-
lessness and those who are
at risk of losing their hos-
ing. His aim was not just
to provide temporary shel-
ter through Fr. Bill's/Main-
spring, but to envision a time
when homelessness would
no longer pose a threat to
folks in our communities.

"Put a Candle in the Win-

dow" is also offered with
thanksgiving for the congre-
gation of the Quincy Point
Congregational Church.

A Musical Prelude by the
Quincy Point String Quartet
will begin at 6:10 pm.

Music will also be per-

A TWUGHT

The American Christmas is a pag-
eant of something old, something
new, a great deal borrowed and all of
it blended into the happiest holiday
of the year.

SCOTT DEWARE ^0 other day combines such a har-
monious pattern of religious, pagan, seasonal and national
traditions from so many corners of civilization.

Three favorite symt)ols of Christmas are fairly new: the
glittering, gift laden Christmas tree, the greeting card, and
Santa Claus as he is known today.

However, let us not forget the Christ child, born in a lowly
manger, God's gift to man. It must not be forgotten that the
first Christmas song was sung in the night. When the world is
dark, the light shines, not from among men but from heaven
- what a comforting fact.

As the strains of the old familiar, well-loved Christmas
hymns and carols usher in another holiday season, may we at
Deware Funeral Home extend to each one of you our sincerest
wishes for a Merry Christmas.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
The New Year brings challeng-
es that can change many things
in your life. You need to be
prepared not only to confront
them, but also to deal with what
happens afterward .

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)
You have what it takes to set
your goals quite a bit higher
this year. Leam what you need
to know and put what you leam
into your efforts. A partner of-
fers loving support.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
In true Gemini Twin fashion,
you're conflicted about a deci-
sion you know you'll have to
make in this New Year. Best
advice: Get the facts before you
make any commitment.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
A friend offers you an exciting
opportunity for this New Year.
Although your positive aspects
are strong in most respects,
caution is advised. Investigate
before you invest.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
You can make this New Year a
roaring success. Start by read-
justing your goals to reflect the
changes in the economy. Your
den-mate offers both wise and
loving supf)ort.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) The New Year brings
new opportunities for change.
But you need to be ready lo
move from the comfortable
status quo to the challenging
unknown. It's up to you.

LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Your most important
New Year's resolution should
be to work out problems with

a family member in order to
avoid continuing misunder-
standings. Do it soon, for both
of your sakes.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 2 1 ) The New Year has
much to offer the intensely de-
termined Scorpian, who isn't
afraid to take on challenges and
stay with them until they sur-
render their rewards.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) You'll
have many fine opportunities in
this New Year. But be warned:
Reject offers of "help." You
work best when you're free to
be your own creative self.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) The New Year
offers changes that you might
feel you're not quite ready for.
Best advice: Deal with them
one step at a time, until you've
built up your self-confidence.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) Travel is a domi-
nant aspect of the New Year.
This could mean relcxating to
another city (or even another
country) in connection with
your education or your career.

PISCES ( February 1 9 to March
20) This New Year brings news
about a change you've been
anticipating. You might have
a problem persuading a loved
one about your new plans, but
he or she will st)on go along
with them.

BORN THIS WEEK: You

have a gift for making people
feel safe and protected. You
would make an excellent youth
counselor.

Miller Family Donates $1,000 To Quincy Schools

THE MILLER EAMILY of Hough.s Neck recently presented the Quincy Public Schools
physical therapy staff with a check for $1,000 for the purchase of equipment to work with
the schools' children. The money was raised by the Richard Miller Foundation, which has
provided donations to numerous organizations and charities for over 20 years. The founda-
tion was created by the Miller family in memory of their son, Richard, who was killed in
a tragic car accident along with three other Quincy youths in 1987. From left: Macy Mae

62- Year-Old Resident
Dies In Sawyer Towers Fire

QUINCY EVERGREEN PROGRAM chairman Leo Kelh stands in front of an evergreen tree
that was planted some 20 years ago at the traffic island at the corner of Bird and Sea Streets
in Houghs Neck. The tree grew from a 12-inch sapUng that was distributed h> the program in
exchange for a recycled Christmas tree. The island is maintained by the Houghs Neck American
Legion Post. After 20 years, Kelly - along with major sponsor Jay Cashman - will not be dis-
tributing saplings this year. But the city will still collect and recycle Christmas trees and wreaths
curbside and at the DPW Yard on Sea Street. See Son Beams, Page 4.

Mayor's Race, Quincy Center Plan, QHS Project Top Local News Stories

By TOM HENSHAW

Quincy managed to
steer through the rocks
and shoals of the recession
with little damage in 2009
and the voters rewarded
Mayor Thomas Koch with
a second two-year term in
the front office.

Koch defeated his chal-
lenger, former Mayor Wil-
liam Phelan, the man from
whom he had wrested the
job in 2007, in the first
such rematch in many
years, making it the top

story in Quincy during the
past 12 months.

The complete makeover
of Quincy Center took a
major step forward with the
acceptance of a $1 billion
plan by Street Works LLC of
White Plains, N.Y.. to trans-
form the struggling down-
town into a modem mix of
residences, retail stores and
offices.

The long-awaited new
Quincy High School finally
arrived with the opening
of the first building in the

I 2009 The Year In Review

three-building campus and
the controversial high school
track facility appeared to be
settling in on Faxon Field.

The city lost one of its big-
gest boosters with the death
of Henry Bos worth, the vet-
eran reporter who gave up
the security of a good job to
found The Quincy Sun and
supervise its growth to jour-
nalistic maturity.

year in news during 2009

Last Gavel Dec. 21 For Outgoing City Council President

Davis Proud Of City Council Record, Looks To Future

By LAURA GRIFFIN

City Council President
Jay Davis said this week
he is proud of his six-year
record representing Ward
4, but was humbled by the
praise of his colleagues
when he struck the gavel as
president for the last time on
Dec. 21.

At that meeting. Mayor
Thomas Koch and City
Clerk Joseph Shea joined
city councillors in com-
mending Davis not only for
his successes but, also re-
peatedly described his gen-
erous spirit.

Councillor John Keenan
cited both Davis' "generosi-
ty of time" and his contribu-
tions "behmd the scenes," as
did Ward 2 Councillor Dan
Raymondi who described
Davis' numerous donations,
including such raffle items
as Red Sox tickets.

"This guy, he understands
it. He gets it," Councillor
Mike McFarland said of his
first impression of Davis
years ago while Councillor
Joseph Finn recalled how
Davis stuck up for all the
kids when coaching base-
ball, particularly those who
may have gone unnoticed.

Finn, also praised Davis
for "your advocacy" of the
public schools while Shea
said that Davis contributed
to every cause that came
through the City Clerk's of-
fice.

Shea also recalled Davis'

finesse as council president
when he presided over such
major development propos-
als as the B.J.'s Warehouse
project at Crown Colony,
the Lowe's Warehouse plan
for Burgin Parkway, and C-
Mart's bid for a supermarket
at the former Boston Gear
Works.

"You never shut the mike
off," Shea said, referring to
the C-Mart meetings when
500 to 600 persons filled
North Quincy High School
auditorium and nearly 100

speakers addressed the
council, then acting as the
Special Permit Granting
Authority.

While his fellow council-
lors bid farewell and good
luck, few believe it's a final
good-bye to Davis' public
service.

Several said they expect
him back to serve the city
in some capacity despite
Davis' loss of his Ward 4
council seat in the Nov. 3
election.'

"I was very humbled by
the words of the council-
lors," Davis said this week.
"I was surprised. It made

me feel very appreciated. It
made me feel special ."

Davis' wife of 19 years,
Honor, and his two daugh-
ters, Madison, 12, and
Meghan, 9, listened from
the audience as Davis was
praised at his last meeting.

"I'm obviously going to
spend more time with my
family. They've given the
ultimate sacrifice," said Da-
vis who thanked his wife
and daughters for their sac-
rifices. He estimated that
council work involves some
30 hours a week.

As for future political
plans, that door is open on
all levels, but not right now.
Davis said, "I'll wait and
see."

Davis said he wouldn't
change anything that he's
done as councillor, that's
he's proud of his pro-busi-
ness and pro-schools re-
cord.

"I'm proud of that and
I'm not going to change,"
said Davis.

"I worked hard, answered
thousands of e-mails and
phone messages. Everybody
makes mistakes. We can all
improve," said Davis in as-
sessing his service.

The billboard on Willard
Street was a major factor in
his election loss, according
to Davis. "It greatly impact-
ed my campaign. I never
supported the thing."

CliffWalk 2 was another
unpopular proposal which
Davis said was defeated
because the neighbors ob-
jected.

"That's a perfect example
of the neighborhood coming
together in the right way,"
said Davis.

For Davis, the success of
the Lowe's and BJ's appli-
cations highlight his major
goal of bringing new busi-
nesses to Quincy as does
his work in keeping Fallon
Ambulance Service and P.V.
Sullivan in Quincy.

B.J.'s and Lowe's bring
construction jobs and long-
term employment opportu-
nities to the city as well as
increasing the tax ba.se, ac-
cording to Davis who. also,
cited mitigation agreements
from the two firms.

Those agreements total
over $1 million and will
help signalize and recon-
figure "the most dangerous
intersection in the city" at
Liberty, Water and Pleasant
Streets, according to Davis.

"They've already started
surveying and designing..."
Davis said he expects con-
struction to begin in the
spring.

Davis noted that he and
Ward 2 Councillor Dan Ray-
mondi were the only self-
employed councillors with
a payroll, taxes and dues to
worry about and such voices
are important.

"I brought a different
perspective. You can't sit
back and wait (for busi-
ness opportunities)," Davis
said, adding that businesses
won't come "if we are not
aggressive."

"I've only been here 20
years," said Davis, who

quickly noted that his daugh-
ters are lifelong residents
and that his family lives in
the hou.se built by his wife's
grandfather 60 years ago.

Many consider Davis
one of Quincy 's biggest
"cheerleaders," and Davis
concurs.

Davis cites just a few of
the city's assets, such as its
infrastructure, its proxim-
ity to Boston, its educated
residents, the solid real es-
tate base with stable values
and the varied economic
options, such as manufac-
turing, business, service and
residential construction.

While he's stepping back
from politics for now, he
still supports a four-year
term for mayor.

"I think there's a great
deal that needs to be done,"
said Davis. "I have to do
more research."

While he's not certain,
he'll lead the effort for the
change, he will continue to
advocate for the changes.
Davis said that the two-year
terms waste money and
manpower.

The 44-year old Da-
vis is a managing partner
of the Graeber, Davis and
Cantwell law firm in Quin-
cy. He coaches youth sports
and volunteers at commu-
nity centers, is a member of
historic preservation groups
and active in parent/teacher
organizations.

Davis will be succeeded
by Brian Palmucci who will
be sworn in with other elect-
ed officials Monday.

INTERNAL FEATURES

The term "inclusion" refers
to internal features found in
gemstones that consist of solids,
liquids, or gases that became
trapped in the growing crystals.
Inclusions may also consist of
cleavages, cracks, and fractures
that filled the host crystal after
it stopped growing. While some
regard inclusions as flaws,
inclusions may also be valued
for the interest that they lend to
a stone. For instance, the stars
in star rubies and sapphires are
caused by needle-like crystals of
rutile (titanium oxide) that formed
parallel to the faces of the host
corundum crystals. When these
gemstones are cut en cabochon
(domed, with a polished surface).

light reflecting from these internal
needle-like inclusions may create
a cat's-eye effect (chatoyancy) or
star stones (asterism).

We're proud of our knowledge
and experience in dealing with
the beautiful gems of the world,
and we'd be happy to share with
you all we know about their
individual characteristics. We
hope you'll feel comfortable

Thousands Attend Funeral For Boston FF Kevin Kelley

Cont 'd From Page I
"The city's financial con-
dition has significantly dete-
riorated over the last several
years," noted the auditors.
"If this condition is not re-
versed, the city's ability to
provide essential core ser-
vices will be adversely af-
fected"

Mayor Koch delivered to
Lt. Gov. Timothy Murray a
request for $125 million in
federal funding for public
projects as part of the eco-
nomic stimulus program
planned by President-elect
Barack Obama.

Mayor Koch began talks
with union leaders about a
wage freeze beginning July
1 . He said he is asking more
than 2,000 city workers to
give up contracted pay rais-
es for the upcoming fiscal
year as part of the city's ef-
fort to weather the economic
crisis.

Mayor Koch further
tightened the purse strings
at City Hall by ending the
practice of taking home 30
city-owned by municipal
employees. Only the police
chief, the fire chief and the
public works commissioner
escaped the ban.

Thousands of firefight-
ers from across the country
attended a funeral Mass in
Quincy for Lt. Kevin Kel-
ley of Wollaston, the Boston

firefighter who died when
his engine went out of con-
trol and struck a brick wall
in Mis.sion Hill.

City Clerk Joseph Shea
was recovering from kidney
surgery at Quincy Medical
Center.

Ward 2 City Council-
lor Daniel Raymondi and
Councillors at-Large John
Keenan and Joseph Finn
filed resolves suggesting
specific draconian measures
to meet expected increases
in costs and cuts in revue in
Fiscal 2010.

Keenan 's suggestion
would include cuts in per-
sonnel in all departments,
closure of the Wollaston
and Adams Shore libraries
and the sale of advertising
on fire engines. Raymondi
and Finn would have the Fi-
nance Committee draw up a
mission statement for delib-
erations on the Fiscal 2010
budget.

The Outd(K>r Advertising
Division of MassHighway
rejected Quincy 's bid to ban
a controversial electronic
billboard that delivers its
message to drivers on the
Southeast Expressway 24
hours a day and night. The
city planned an appeal.

War 5 City Councillor
Doug Gutro, former Ward
6 Councillor Alicia Gard-
ner and Norfolk County

Register of Probate Patrick
McDermott had seat tick-
ets to the inauguration of
President Obama but they
couldn't get in.

"We got there about 7:30
a.m.," said McDermott, "and
we waited for hours. But
there was a security breach
right in front of us. Some-
body sneaked in through our
gate and they shut it down."

Neariy 1 50 people braved
the wind and cold for the
third annual John Hancock
Plunge on snow-covered
Wollaston Beach to raise
money for Interfaith Social
Services but only 25 actu-
ally went in the water, in-
cluding Shawn Kelly, 9. of
Quincy, the youngest.

George Burke, former
district attorney, state rep,
city councilor and commu-
nity philanthropist, was se-

THE HISTORY CHANNEL

• On Jan. 5, 1643, in the

first record of a legal divorce
in the American colonies,
Anne Qarke of the Mas-
sachusetts Bay Colony is
granted a divorce from her
absent and adulterous hus-
band, Denis Clarke, by the
Quarter Court of Boston.

• On Jan. 10, 1901, a

drilling derrick at Spindle-
top Hill near Beaumont,
Texas, produces an enor-
mous gusher of crude oil,
signaling the advent of the
American oil industry. The
geyser flowed at an initial
rate of 100,000 barrels a
day. Within a year, there
were more than 285 active
wells at Spindletop. Today,
only a few oil wells still op-
erate in the area.

• On Jan. 6, 1936, Porky
Pig makes his world debut
in a Warner Brothers car-
toon, "Gold Diggers of '49."
When Mel Blanc joined
Warner Brothers the fol-
lowing year, he became the
famous voice behind Porky,
as well as the Warner Broth-
ers characters Bugs Bunny,
Daffy Duck, Sylvester and
Tweety.

• On Jan. 7, 1959, six

days after the fall of the Ful-
gencio Batista dictatorship,
the United States recogniz-
es the new Cuban govern-

ment of Fidel Castro. The
U.S. government believed
it could work with Castro
and protect American inter-
ests in Cuba, but less than
two years later, the U.S.
severed diplomatic ties and
unleashed the Bay of Pigs
invasion.

• On Jan. 8, 1966, rock-
and-roll TV variety show
"Shindig" on ABC airs its
last episode. The show had
debuted in September 1964,
featuring acts including the
Everly Brothers, the Rolling
Stones and the Beach Boys.

• On Jan. 9, 1972, in

Hong Kong harbor, a fire
breaks out aboard the lavish
Queen Elizabeth, and by the
next morning the famous
vessel lies in a wreck on the
bottom of the sea floor. Be-
fore her days as a passenger
liner, the Queen Elizabeth
steamed across the ocean as
a transport vehicle during
World War II.

• On Jan. 4, 1996, Gen-
eral Motors announces that
it will release an electric
car, the EV-1. While sales
were quite modest by the
standards of internal-com-
bustion cars, the EV-1 was
the best-selling electric con-
sumer car of its time.

City Extends Single Stream
Recycling Barrel Bucks Program

Mayor Thomas P. Koch is
extending the Single Stream
Recycling Barrel Bucks
program.

In an effort to increase
recycling and decrease the
cost of trash disposal, the
city is offering a limited
supply of coupons worth
$5 towards the purchase of
a 32-gallon, Single Stream
Recycling Barrel (one to a
family.)

Households are encour-
aged to convert to a plastic,
32-gaIlon recycling con-
tainer. No sorting is nec-
essary; paper, cardboard,
glass, cans, plastic can all

go in together, in any order.
The larger barrel allows for
greater recycling and the
coupon makes the purchase
a little easier.

Coupons will be avail-
able March 1 at the City
Hall information desk, 1305
Hancock St., and at the
DPW Office, 55 Sea St.

Coupons are still honored
at Curry Ace Hardware,
370 Copeland St., Danny's
Hardware, 53 Billings Rd.,
North Quincy.

You may have them
mailed to you by e-mailing
recyclequincy @ci .quincy.
ma.us or by calling 617-
376-1953.

The idea was way ahead of its time - well before
"going green" was today's environmentally-con-
scious catch phrase - and just grew and grew and grew.
Like the very trees themselves.

And after 20 years, the Quincy
Evergreen Program - under its origi-
nal sponsorship and leadership team,
anyway - is history.

Chairman Leo Kelly and major
sponsor Jay Cashman - who marked
20 years with the Quincy Evergreen
Program last winter - have decided
the time is right to step away from the
program after saving countless Christmas trees from
landfills and distributing thousands of saplings suit-
able for planting.

There is a chance, however, that the program may
be resurrected perhaps as early as next winter, city of-
ficials say, but with different principals and sponsors.

It's also important to note that the city will still be
accepting Christmas trees (and wreaths) for recycling.
Capitol Waste will collect trees and wreaths curbside
on regular trash days from Jan. 4-15.

Residents can also drop off their trees and wreaths
at the DPW yard on Sea Street between 7:30 a.m. and
3 p.m. Monday through Friday beginning Jan. 4.

Under the program, residents who dropped off
Christmas trees at the Quincy Park Department were
given a coupon for an evergreen sapling. The coupons
would be redeemed in April for a variety of 12-inch
evergreens, including spruce and balsam trees.

Kelly estimates the program, over the past 20 years,
distributed 15,000 trees to Quincy residents only - but
the trees themselves were planted all over. In fact,
some have grown and grown as far away as Cape Cod
and New Hampshire.

"During the first few years we gave out two or three
thousand a year because it was so popular and it dwin-
dled down because people had planted saplings all over
the place and they didn't need anymore," Kelly noted.

Christmas trees that were turned in for mulching
also created an instant benefit: they weren't taking up
precious space in landfills. Instead, they were mulched
but the mulch from the trees was too acidic to be wide-
ly used in the city. So, the city swapped its Christmas
tree mulch with another mulch provider. That mulch,
in turn, has been used throughout the city's parks.

"I feel great about the program. I think any time you
can contribute to the health of the envirormient and
earth it's a tremendous feeling of worth," Kelly said.

"The people who recycled their trees really felt like
they were part of cleaning the environment. And the
planted saplings grow into trees - some of them are 20
feet tall or taller - that clean the air," Kelly i>oints out.

One such tree that has grown from one of those sap-
lings was planted on a traffic island at the comer of
Sea and Bird Streets in Houghs Neck. The tree's tips
are as high as utility lines.

Another original sapling that is towering on private
property is in front of a home on Mechanic Street in
Quincy Center.

But now, after 20 years, Kelly says his involvement
in the program and Cashman 's sponsorship, have sim-
ply run its course.

"We had set out to do 20 years and we just made
it into our 20'*' year last year. We felt we did what we
wanted to do and we accomplished what we wanted
to do," Kelly said. "It was getting to the point that a
lot of the people who were recycling their Christmas
trees were repeaters and they had as many trees as they
could possibly plant."

While Kelly thanked a lot of people for making the
program a success, he had the highest praise for Cash-
man.

"The program was my idea and I approached Jay
Cashman to sponsor it. He said 'I'll sponsor the pro-
gram if I'm the only sponsor. And he's been the only
sponsor. He's paid for everything the last 20 years.

"Without Jay, it wouldn't have been done. Jay's an

outstanding advocate for the envirormient and he was
the principal contractor in the cleanup of Quincy Bay
and Boston Harbor."

Kelly estimates the sponsorship price-tag is "well
into the thousands." Costs associated with the program
picked up entirely by Cashman included advertising,
printing flyers and the tree saplings themselves.

Kelly says he's also grateful for the mayors who
supported the program - James Sheets, William Phelan
and Tom Koch - as well as the dedication of his good
friend, Margaret Milne who's been "tremendously
helpful. She and I were the committee and the mayor
would be a part of it."

Also lending their support: the Quincy Park Depart-
ment, School Department, Park and Recreation Board,
Boys and Girls Scouts, local Christmas tree vendors,
the mayor's office as well as the late Henry W. Bos-
worth, founder of The Quincy Sun newspaper who co-
ordinated news stories promoting the program.

"The program was the first of the kind in the state,
maybe even the country," Kelly says. "I'm extremely
proud of all the people who supported and participated
in the program year after year."

Leo Kelly's been a lot of things in the city, includ-
ing a Ward 1 city councillor.

He now can have a new title: Quincy's 'Johnny Ap-
pleseed." Or how about "Leo Evergreen?"

Quincy's Evergreen Program has strong roots in the
city. Even if the program is not picked up by another
sponsor, it's certainly made the city cleaner - and quite
greener - these past 20 years.

Wollaston Garden Club Winterizes Intersection Planters

The Wollaston Garden
Club, led by Civic Beautifi-
cation Chairwoman, Jo Cos-
tello, winterized the seven
intersection planters at
Southern Artery on Quincy
Ave. in Ward 2.

In the spnng, the garden
club had worked with Kns-
ten Powers and the Quincy
Parks Department to begin
the work of planting inter-
section planters with peren-
nials for winter interest.

The garden club pur-
chased seven dwarf ever-
green shrubs along with
huechera and gaura to anchor
various annuals planted. The
Park Department helped the
garden club with the plant-
ing of the shrubs and wa-
tering during the summer.
The garden club monitored
the plants, removmg dead
leaves and tlowers.

Recently a small group
of the garden club's civic

Hydrogen Processor
May Be Key To Improving
Efficiency Of City Vehicles

By JOE REARDON

Sal Rizzo slipped the key
into the ignition and turned
on his Lebaron GTC. The
car's engine came alive
and idled smoothly without
the slightest hint of wear or
tear.

Rizzo has logged plenty
of miles in the vehicle -
280,000 to be exact - and
he credits the smooth ride
to an Aqua Tune hydrogen
processor. Eventually, Rizzo
would like to see all of Quin-
cy's city vehicles equipped
with the processor.

The system separates or
"cracks" the oxygen mol-
ecules from hydrogen. It
allows just enough distilled
water to enter the combus-
tion chamber to cool the
oil temperature by approxi-
mately 25 degrees as the
hydrogen and oxygen is va-
porized. As a result, the en-
gine does not sense a knock
condition.

There are several no-
ticeable changes in the ve-
hicle once the processor is
installed. The engine runs
smoother and the exhaust
coming out of the tailpipe is
"cleaned up." The engine be-
comes more powerful with a
change in horsepower.

"What I have in there
is pure water," said Rizzo.
"When I do my demos at

car shows I drink the water.
•They can't figure out how I
can use water as a fuel ."

Rizzo tested the proces-
sor for a year and achieved a
greater mileage increase. He
was sold on the product and
shortly thereafter became a
Massachusetts distributor
of Aqua Tune. Rizzo then
approached Mayor Tom
Koch and told him he'd be
able to save money on the
yearly fuel bill of the city's
vehicles.

Koch got back to Rizzo
the next day where he met
with the department heads,
informing them he could
hybndize the city vehicles,
which would make them run
more efficiently.

The processor was retro-
fitted by Aqua Tune founder
Nick Foy in three vehicles
at the DPW garage; a 2009
Ford F250, a 2005 Ford
F250 and a 1997 Ford Ex-
plorer. An hour and a half
after installation, the driver
of the Ford 2009 came back
to find the vehicle had a 4.4
gallon increase where before
it had achieved 7.2 miles per
gallon. The increase was a
whopping 54 percent.

The processor was then
installed on a truck that had
a rough sounding engine. An
hour after it was installed the
engine was turned on.

A TOE-BENDING EXPERIENCE

Excessive bending of the lems Is vital to your program of

toes can cause capsulitis, an
Inflammation of a ligament. Liga-
ments are tough tissues found
where two bones come togettier
to forni a joint. If there Is stress
placed on the joint from repetitive
motion, the ligaments can over-
stretch and become inflamed.
Symptoms include aching dis-
comfort, and a sharp pain with
pressure and with nx>vement
of the toe. Doing electrical and
plumbing vKxk, dimbing ladders,
and stooping while gardening
all require nx)vements that may
cause capsulitis. Wearing very
high heeled shoes can also
cause inflammation. Cortisone
injections, rest, Ice, and oral anti-
inflammatory medications can
alleviate the discomfort for the
short term. In some cases, sur-
gery to repair the damage may
be indicated.
Proper care of toe joint prob-

overall good health. Our office
provides comprehensive care in
managing foot and ankle prob-
lems as well as helping prevent
them before ttiey occur. We
specialize in ttie evaluation and
treatment of many problems
affecting the lower extremities.
For your feet's sake and your
well-being, fa acute iriji^ies or
chronic conditions, call us at
781-986-3668 for an appoint-
ment for leading-edge, compas-
sionate podiatric care. We're
located at QUINCY MEDICAL
CENTER. Office hours are also
available at 999 North Main St.,
In the Randolph Medical Office
Building, and Milton Medical
BuiWing in Suite 221. I am af-
filiated with the Brockton and
Good Samaritan Hospitals.

HINTT: When capsulitis in-
volves the iDig toe joint, it is
son)etimes l<nown as Turf Toe.

"it was clacking like
crazy when we started it and
then it just stopped and ran
smooth," said Rizzo.

The marked increase was
more than the 25-percent
that Aqua Tune Hydrogen
Fuel Systems Inc., guaran-
tees, but even the 25-percent
number is a huge increase.

The processor also guar-
antees a gain of up to 30 per-
cent in horsepower, lower
oil temperature, drastically
lower emissions, the ability
to switch to a lower octane
of gas, reduction/elimina-
tion of turbo lag and the pro-
longing of the engines life.

Rizzo's love affair with
mechanical and automotive
wonders began years ago.
His first endeavor was fixing
up a 1934 Ford convertible.

Rizzo later attempted
to build an American "Hot
Rod," a 1932 Ford convert-
ible. Two years later it was
competed and became a
show car. At the time he sold
it for $1,100.

More recently he saw the
car on sale for $44,900.

"Oh well," Rizzo said.
"Like Sinatra said, 'That's
life.'"

Rizzo has had numer-
ous installations around the
Boston and Quincy area
and all have had signifi-
cant increases in mileage,
along with a smoother ride.
The unit can also be used
on boats motorcycles and
standing generator engines.
The beauty of the processor
is that it has no moving parts
to wear out.

Watercolor Exhibit At Crane Library

Watercolor artist Lisa
Goren will exhibit her
paintings of Antarctic land-
scapes from Jan. 2 to 31 at
the Thomas Crane Public
Library, 40 Washington St.,
Quincy.

In 1997, Goren traveled
south to Antarctica, where
she encountered a landscape
that has fascinated her all of
her life.

"Seeing this landscape
made me rethink how we
perceive water and ice,
which have so many mani-

festations that are beautiful
and ever changing. In Ant-
arctica, dirt and snow algae
can create amazing effects
in what might be assumed
to be totally white landscape
and icebergs are so dense
that the only light waves
which pass through are what
1 call a Caribbean blue."

Goren 's interest in water
and its variations encour-
aged her foray into watercol-
or painting, in which water
is a critical tool. Although
the nature of water is tran-
sitory, some of the scenes

she painted include ice that
is millions of years old. The
increasing impact of global
warming also inspired her to
document this unique polar
landscape before it changes
beyond recognition.

Goren has been painting
and showing her work in the
Boston area for seven years.
The Boston resident was
named Watercolor Maga-
zine Artist of the Month in
June 2008.

Early Notification Of Fire

I'm sitting here thinking
of a follow-up inspection I
recently made in an apart-
ment housing two adults and
two children. Previously, it
had come to my attention
that the unit was missing
working smoke and CO de-
tectors.

The landlord installed
both detectors on a Satur-
day after I met with him; I
returned to inspect the unit
on Monday, the tenant had
already removed a battery
from one of the newly in-
stalled smoke detectors. Re-
acting to the tenant's action,
I did so in utter frustration
and disbelief.

On a bi-monthly ba-
sis, the NFPA publishers a
trade magazine called NFPA
JOURNAL. It's a great
source of data for discussion
on the causes of fire while
the examples highlight defi-
ciencies in human behavior
surrounding the cause, or
existing conditions result-
ing in fatalities. Like most

tragedies, there are lessons
to be learned. This article is
another attempt at sharing a
lesson.

In the vast majority of
residential fire fatality in-
cidents, as is noted in these
examples, smoke detectors
have either been removed,
or their batteries have been
removed rendering them
functionless. As I have so
often attempted to empha-
size, early notification is
essential when one needs
to evacuate a household in
a fire emergency. Even with
notification, you typically
have as little as one minute
to escape.

The NFPA JOURNAL
is loaded with examples of
fires where early notifica-

lege. She will graduate in

tion was absent do to the ab-
sence of working detectors.
The examples highlights
incidents where it is appar-
ent that the occupants them-
selves removed the batter-
ies and or detectors. Doing
so, they've substantially
decreased the odds of their
survival if a fire occurs.

Fire does not typically
announce itself, while fatal
fires typically occur during
sleeping hours. To awaken
to a moderate or heavy
smoke condition within your
bedroom in the middle of
the night, and to then make
life saving decisions un-
der stress, heat condifions,
visual obscuration while
having difficulty breathing,
is avoidable. It's better to
respond than to react. Prop-
erly located smoke detec-
tors within your home give
you the notification to avoid
having to make life or death
decisions within seconds
under these conditions.

One of the highest hurtles
I've had to overcome as an
inspector, is when it is appar-
ent that individuals are not
willing to help themselves.
It frequently happens. It

highlights how much is ac-
tually out of your control
when you expend energy in
an attempt to gain compli-
ance time and time again in
pursuit of life safety issues,
you realize the importance
of your efforts, you success-
fully accomplish your goals,
and your efforts are soon
dismantled by an occupant's
indifference. Unfortunately
they themselves might suf-
fer the consequences of that
indifference, while it is ap-
parent that our efforts and
salesmanship alone is not
enough. However, you just
have to keep trying despite
what you experience at
times.

This is not written to
share in occasional discour-
agement, but to emphasize
once again the importance
of early notification of fire.
The subject is too important
and I intentionally frequent-
ly revisit it.

Test your detectors
monthly, change your batter-
ies yearly, and maintain the
presence of working smoke
detectors. Your life may de-
pend upon them. Thank you
for doing so.

the Quincy call, according
to Smyth and Ward 4 Coun-
cillor Daniel Raymondi.

"It was an awful tragedy,"
said Raymondi who was at
the scene and witnessed the
difficulties of the residents.

What eased their confu-
sion, according to Raymondi
and Smyth, was the collabo-
ration of the various groups
in aiding the residents.

"They were terrific," said
Raymondi who described
some of the fears of the
residents who worried about
their cats and birds left be-
hind, their medicines, such
as insulin, and valuables
and clothes left in the unat-
tended apartments.

Some residents were
transported to the Salvation
Army headquarters on Bax-
ter Street. There, they were
offered coffee, cocoa, tea,
and a warm shelter while
their apartments were as-
sessed, relatives called, or
temporary housing found.

Others stayed warm on
the T bus which remained
at the scene until those resi-
dents were able to return to
their apartments.

The QHA has, also,
housed some residents at
The Best Western Adams
Inn, Hancock Street, while
the water and smoke dam-

age to their units is being
assessed.

Two residents were trans-
ported to Quincy Medical
Center as a precaution, ac-
cording to Smyth who said
firefighters knocked on ev-
ery apartment door in the
building.

"I'm really proud of the
efforts of the men in (han-
dling) the fire, rescue and
evacuation," said Smyth
who described the time-
consuming efforts of knock-
ing on each door.

Smyth said the two-alarm
was sounded at 7:54 a.m.,
Saturday, Dec. 26. Firefight-
ers immediately doused the
flames which were concen-
trated in only one apart-
ment.

However, Smyth said,
"We had a report of a wom-
an who lived in the apart-
ment and was not accounted
for."

The 62-year-old victim
was identified as Donna
Marani who died in her third
floor apartment.

Smyth estimated the fire
and water damage at rough-
ly $200,000,

"Preliminary indicafions
are that the origin of the fire
was smoking materials,"
said State Fire Marshal Ste-
phen Coan in formal report

curbside collection on your regular trash day between January 4 and the 15. Please do not place trees curbside af^er this
date, as it will cost the city a disposal fee. Please remove all decorations. Do not wrap in plastic bags. You can always bring
your trees and yardwaste to the DPW yard in the rear of 55 Sea St. year-round M-F from 7:30 AM to 3 PM.

RECYCLE YOUR CHRISTMAS LIGHTS

Don't throw your old incandescent lights in the trash. Send them to HolidayLEDs.com, Attn: Recycling Program, 118 Rosehill Dr., Suite 1,
Jackson, MI 49202 and they'll recycle them for you and send you a coupon for 15% off a new purchase. The program ends at the end of February
2010. Please include your name and email address. All coupons will be emailed so we must have an email address.

THE PERFECT TRASH AND RECYCLING BARREL

The perfect barrel for both trash and recycling in Quincy is a 32-gaUon plastic barrel and lid. Residential trash and Single Stream recycling is
collected manually once a week. There is no machine to lift the barrel and empty the contents. According to OSHA regulations the barrel and its
contents should not weigh more than 50 pounds. Many of the more popular wheeled barrels today weigh up to 20 pounds when empty and are
large enough to hold up to 100 pounds. These barrels are designed for "automated" handling and pose a problem for handlers.
Single Stream recycling allows residents to place all recyclables into a single barrel. No more separating paper and cardboard from plastic, glass
and metal. Therefore, Single Stream recycling requires a 32 -gallon barrel. For Single Stream recycling purposes, at least 2 blue Single Stream
recycling stickers should be placed on the recycling barrel.

$5 RECYCLE BARREL COUPONS

Mayor Thomas P. Koch is extending the Recycling Barrel Bucks Program. In an effort to increase recycling and decrease the cost of trash
disposal, the City of Quincy is offering a limited supply of coupons worth $5.00 towards the purchase of a 32-gallon, Single Stream Recycling
Barrel (one to a family). Coupons are available March T' in the City Hall Information Desk, 1305 Hancock St., and at the DPW Office, 55 Sea St.
Coupons are still honored at Curry Ace Hardware, 370 Copeland St. Danny's Hardware, 53 Billings Rd. Quincy.
You may have them mailed to you. By calling 61 7-376-1953, or by e-mailing your request to

PLEASE RECYCLE

Your trash is weighed and the city is billed for its disposal. Recycling cardboard, paper,

glass, metal and plastic reduces the weight of trash, and provides revenue to the city.

In fiscal year ending June 30, 2009 Quincy residents reduced trash by 2,374.52 tons for

a savings of over $200,000. Another $100,000 was realized in actual revenue from recyclable material

The Year In Review

Quincy, a reporter of Quincy
news for 60 years, the last
40 as founder and publisher
of The Quincy Sun, died un-
expectedly at Quincy Medi-
cal Center.

"Henry exemplified the
Greatest Generation," said
Mayor Thomas Koch. "He
served his country in the
Navy and, when he came
home, he served his family
and his community for the
rest of his life.

"The Quincy Sun has
been a vital part of our
community fabric since its
inception 40 years ago and
Henry's love of Quincy was
on clear display in every is-
sue."

Students coming back
from the winter vacation
returned to the first phase of
the long-awaited new Quin-
cy High School - the state
of the art Science/Math/
Technology Academy wing.
Principal Frank Santoro
predicted the building lay-
out, designed and equipped
for the 21" century, will al-
low a new approach to in-
tegrated learning that will
make Quincy ""the beacon'
in educational practices that
others will follow."

The design of the new
building literally connects
various fields of science
math and technology, such
as nursing classes with bi-
ology and engineering with
math, which Santoro re-
ferred to as interdisciplines.
The 200-member Quincy

firefighters local voted over-
whelmingly to accept wage
freeze requested by Mayor
Thomas Koch as part of the
city's plan to confront the
most serious fiscal crisis in
a generation. City officials
expected the decision would
save more than $5(X),0(X).

City officials advertised
three buildings for demoli-
tion and finalized the last
land-taking for the Hancock
Street Crossing phase of the
proposed cross-town artery.
DemoliUon was scheduled
to begin in March.

The state inspector gener-
al was investigating alleged
inflated costs and faulty
work in the $32.8 million
Honeywell energy manage-
ment program, which began
in 2007, a project that was
supposed to save Quincy
both energy and taxpayer
money.

City Solicitor James Tim-
mins filed suit challenging a
claim by B.J.'s Wholesale
Club that It had a special

Henry P. "Hank" Brad-

FAREWELL, QUINCY - The Goliath Crane departs Quincy Bay on a Saturday afternoon in
March. This photo was taken from atop Grade Hill in Houghs Neck. The 328-foot tall crane, a
fixture in the city skyline since 1975, was enroute to a South Korean-owned Black Sea shipyard

in Mangalia, Romania. The crane was renamed in memory of Quincy Point native Bobby Har-
vey, an ironworker killed last August in an accident during the crane's dismantling.

Street- Works Eyes $1 Billion Investment In Quincy Center

MARCH

Richard Heupes. a part-
ner in Street-Works De-
velopment LLC' of White
Plains. NY., said his firm is
prepared to invest more than
$1 billion in Quincy Center
with office buildings, resi-
dences and retail establish-
ments.

Heapes said the new
downtown would include
1,100 units of housing, a ho-
tel, one or two major shop-
ping centers and side walk
cafes tied together by a wide
sidewalk with full-grown
trees from day one.

"We're very bullish on
it," said Mayor Thomas
Koch, predicting "a down-
town we can all be proud
of." He described the cur-
rent downtown as "tired"
and long overdue for reha-
bilitation.

"I couldn't be more ex-
cited," said Peter Forman,
president and CEO of the
South Shore Chamber of
Commerce. "It will make
the whole South Shore more
attractive to Boston profes-
sionals. It's a great regional
story."

Street-Works also ex-
pressed an interest in pur-
chasing the 83-year-old
Wollaston Theater, which
had been closed and deterio-
rating for the past six years.
Street-Works had "the

Wolly" under contract
but any deal was far from
finalized.

Meanwhile, the J . Deren-
zo Co. of Brocktt>n won
the bidding for the second
phase of the Quincy Center
Concourse, an overhaul of
McGrath Highway, a major
part of the $1 billion plan.

City Hall workers voted
overwhelmingly to accept
Mayor Koch's request for a
one year wage freeze which
figured to save the city about
$170,000. The Quincy Pub-
lic Employees Association
was the third union to ac-
cept the plan. And the Police
Patrol Officers Association
was the fourth.

Anthoney Wilkerson,
16, a junior at Quincy High
School, was killed when the
jeep in which he was riding
overturned in Hopkinton,
N.H. Friends petitioned to
name a hallway in the new
high school in his memory.

A dismantled 328-foot
Goliath Crane, a landmark
at the Fore River Shipyard
since 1975, left Quincy on
a barge for its new home
in a South Korean-owned
shipyard on the Black Sea in
Rumania.

State Treasurer Tim
Cahill of Quincy told The
Quincy Sun: "I do not plan
to run for governor now. If
there is an open seat, I'm in;
if not, I'll wait and see. You
can say I'm considering."

State Inspector General
Gregory Sullivan recom-
mended that the city "contact
an independent appraiser to

conduct a full evaluation of
Quincy College to determine
the fair market value of this
public asset " before cutting
the college loose from the
school system.

Gov. Deval Patrick told
an audience of some 200 at
the Atrium at the Thomas
Crane Public Library that
deferred maintenance on the
state's roads, bridges and
rail system would cost $15
to $19 billion over the next
20 years.

March roared into Quin-
cy like a lion, dropping 10.2
inches of snow on the city,
running the season's total to
75.5 inches.

Plans were afoot to link
the 57-acre Faxon Park
and the 1 3-acre Avalon Es-
tates through an open space
of some 15 acres, making
Faxon the largest park in
the city, bigger than Merry-
mount Park's 80 acres.

The Planning Board re-
versed an earlier decision
and approved the location of
B .J .'s Wholesale Club ware-
house in the Crown Colony
Office Park after a land court
judge ruled that the Board
didn't have the authority not
to approve it.

Veterans Graves Regis-
tration Officer Tom Stans-
bury was named to fill the
post of Veterans Services
Director left vacant by the
retirement of Henry "Hank"
Bradley.

The Centers of Light, a

religious organization, with-
drew its plan to purchase a
seven-room mansion at 301
Adams Street for a group
home with 50-seat chapel.
More than 2(X) opponents
showed up at a Zoning
Board of Appeals hearing.

City Council President
Jay Davis told the Finance
Committee reviewing the
$15.4 DPW budget that one
way to cut it was to stop
residents of Milton, who are
charged a fee for each bag
of trash, from leaving their
garbage in Quincy for free
pickup.

Kristen Powers, execu-
tive director of the Park,
Forestry and Cemetery De-
partments, said the city is
running out of gravesites
at Pine Hill Cemetery and
rattlesnakes are preventing
its expansion in nearby open
space.

Col. James C. McCon-
ville of Quincy, a graduate
of Archbishop Williams
High School, was promoted
to Brigadier General and
Deputy Commanding Gen-
eral (Support) of the lOP'
Airborne Division.

The John F. Kennedy
Presidential Library award-
ed a JFK Make a Differ-
ence Award to the Broad
Meadows Middle School's
activism club known as Op-
eration Day's Work-USA,
whose motto is "Kids help-
ing global kids to help them-
selves."

Stephen J. Finnegan,
general counsel for the Mas-
sachusetts Association of
School Committees, ren-
dered an opinion that Mayor
Koch controlled enough of
Faxon Field to permit con-
struction of a track facility.
David McCarthy, vice chair-
man of the School Commit-
tee and an advocate of Pag-
eant Field, disagreed.

Enrollment in the 18
Quincy Public Schools in
2008 was set at 9, 154 .The
statistics from the state in-
dicated that the makeup of
the student were 57% white,
30.8% Asian, 5.65% Afri-
can American, and 4.6%
Hispanic.

Police Chief Paul Keenan
revealed that cameras have
been installed in critical ar-
eas of the city for Homeland
Security with live video
being fed directly to police
headquarters. The chief said
he would like to extend the
coverage to traffic signals
and schools.

Keenan also warned
the City Council's Finance
Committee that his depart-
ment would have to be
trimmed by three lieuten-
ants, one sergeant and seven
patrol officers due to Fiscal
2010 budget restrictions.
The positions would be
cut by attritions and retire-
ments.

W. Quincy Fire Claims 3 Lives;
City On Alert For Swine Flu

MORE MARCH

Oudah Frawi, a refugee
from the war in Iraq, and his
sons, Ali, 1, and Hassan, 2
months, died in a fire at 1(X)
Robertson St., West Quincy,
in March, touching off an
investigation into illegal
housing in the city.

Building Inspector Jay
Duca said he received 20 re-
ports of illicit apartments in
just four days following the
fire in the Robertson Street
basement apartment and the
City Council heard a reso-
lution enabling a faster re-
sponse to similar tragedies.
APRIL

Michael Coffey, business
manager of the DPW, sug-
gested that an annual $100
fee charged to the city's
30,000 households would
cut the department's $6.7
million budget almost in
half.

The State Civil Service
Commission ruled that the
city acted appropriately
when it started a fresh se-
lection process for a new
fire chief to succeed Timo-
thy Pettinelli after two of
the three needed candidates
withdrew.

The Commission dis-
missed the appeal of Deputy
Gary Smyth, who alleged
that he was bypassed when
the city started the selection
process. But Smyth persist-
ed, claiming an exception
to the ruling when Deputy
Joseph Barron was named
"acting chief."

The firefighters union
filed a grievance claiming
that Barron removed Ladder

2 from the Wollaston sta-
tion, then put it back in ser-
vice without adequate man-
power. The union said that,
unlike the city's other two
ladder trucks. Ladder 2 re-
quires four men, not three.

Groundbreaking began
for the phase of the Quincy
Center Concourse that in-
cludes McGrath Highway
from Southern Artery to
Hancock Street. The first
portion of the scheduled
18-month project would re-
locate utilities underground.

The City Council ap-
proved a special permit for
the QBJ Land Development,
LLC, clearing the way for
construcfion of an 84,000
square foot B.J.' Wholesale
Club in Crown Colony.

Philip H.Markoff, 22, an
upstate New York man liv-
ing in Quincy, pleaded inno-
cent in the death of Julissa
Brisman, 26, a masseuse,
who's name he discovered
on Craigslist, the personal
services list on the Internet.

Mayor Koch and Plan-
ning Director Dennis Ham-
ilton received accolades
from the U.S. Department of
Housing and Urban Devel-
opment for their innovative
use of Community Develop-
ment Block Grant (CDBG)
funds.

The City Council heard
statistics that, in 2008, the
Fire Department responded
to 5,050 medical calls and
only 766 fires. Ernie Arien-
ti, president of the firefight-
ers' union, suggested it was
time to consider reducing
the number of medical calls

Quincy was on the alert
for the swine flu, which was
creeping across the United
States after killing 149 in

an application by his client,

tion was said to be 30% to
40% Asian.

Mayor Koch called At-

sult to the City Council, an
insult to me personally and
an insult to the residents of
the community of all races
who have voiced their opin-

Koch Seeks 2nd Term;

Phelan Explores Rematch;

Kelly, Mariano Stepping Down

MAY

Mayor Thomas Koch
kicked oft his candidacy for
a second two year term, tell-
ing more than 8(X) support-
ers in the Quincy Elks ball-
room that there "is nothing
we cannot achieve when we
come together as a commu-
nity."

The mayor cited the
city's financial situation,
how he worked with the
unions to save millions of
dollars in health insurance
costs, allied with Braintree
and Weymouth to save on
trash collections and other
actions to deal with the his-
toric fiscal crisis.

Promising "no new tax-
es," Koch submitted a pro-
posed $226.5 million bud-
get for Fiscal 2010 to the
City Council, some $4.6 or
2% lower than the previous
year.

"People are hurting out
there," said the mayor. "We
want to keep the tax levy the
same."

Former Mayor William
Phelan said he has formed
an exploratory campaign
committee to test the pub-
lic's reaction before mak-
ing a decision to challenge
Mayor Koch, who knocked
him from office in 2007.

It never rained but it
poured in Quincy's financial
picture.

Quincy's legislative del-
egation predicted a 15%, or
about $6 million, reduction
in state aid in Fiscal 2010.
"It's as bad as you will ever
see it except next year," said

Phelan In Mayoral Bid; Merrymount Park Fountain Dedicated

JUNE

Former three-term Mayor
William Phelan announced
that he will run against in-
cumbent Mayor Tliomas
Koch "to get the city mov-
ing again."

Koch ousted him in
2007.

"Despite current prob-
lems, despite the sense that
Quincy has gotten off track,
what I heard most was from
people who believe in this
city," he said.

"Everywhere I heard
from people full of pnde
in Quincy 's past and full of
hope for Quincy's future."

The Rainbow Flag, a
sign of equality with the
gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and
transgender community, was
stolen from the United First
Parish Church. The contro-
versial banner was quickly
replaced.

Mayor Koch met with
state Inspector General
Gregory Sullivan to discuss
the ongoing probe of the $32
million Honeywell energy
program that was begun
when the Koch administra-
tion said it found failings in
the plan.

Sullivan toured the boiler
installations at the Atherton
Hough, Merrymount and
Broadmeadows schools,
which Koch said had cost
the taxpayers three or four
times more than standard
prices under the Honeywell
program .

The City Council ap-
proved a Public Art Com-
mission to supervise the
aesthetic development of
the $1 billion Quincy Cen-
ter improvement plan. "This
commission will work with
StreetWorks to make pub-
lic space more attractive,"
said Ward 1 Councillor Leo
Kelly.

2009

The Year In Review

Mayor Koch released a
consultant's report hat pre-
dicted the revitalization of
downtown Quincy would
create more that 4,6(X) per-
manent jobs and generate
more than $10 million annu-
ally in tax revenue.

Sasaki Associates, a
world-renowned architec-
tural firm, picked Wollaston
as the site of it summer in-
ternship program. Graduate
students work with the Plan-
ning Department to develop
a master plan for the Wollas-
ton Business District.

Mayor Koch was drag-
ging his feet on signing a
City Council-passed anti-
noise ordinance, calling
it "too watered down" to
have any practical impact.
"Perhaps there is a middle
ground we can find," said
the mayor. "If not, we will
seriously consider an out-
right veto."

The Council revived the
ordinance, decided it was
better to have no anti -noise
ordinance at all than to have
one that was ineffective so
members decided to post-
pone action on it.

Ward 5 City Councillor
Doug Gutro drew unani-
mous support from his col-
leagues in an effort to have
the Dorothy Quincy House
included in the Adams Na-
tional Historic Park. Previ-
ous attempts had ended in
failure.

Firefighters, police and
emergency workers who
fought the fatal fire at 100
Robertson St., West Quin-
cy, were honored by the
City Council. One person
survived the blaze, Terri
Knight, whose husband and
two children died in the

flames.

The City Council ap-
proved the $95,0(X) pur-
cha.se of the former Howard
Johnson spot on the South-
east Expressway as an open
space project. The site was
declared too dangerous for a
restaurant with cars entering
and leaving the superhigh-
way.

United First Parish
Church won $80,(XK) in
grant funding from Part-
ners in Preservation to help
restore the bell tower and
improve the public corridor
to the crypt and tombs of
Presidents John and John
Quincy Adams.

Students at the Lincoln/
Hancock School planted
an Abraham Lincoln Li-
lac Shrub on the schools
grounds in recognition of

no longer reflects my fiscal
values or those of the work-
ing families of the Com-
monwealth."

Center, the former Myles
Standish School and Beech-
wood by the Bay, was dedi-
cated, the first ever senior

Koch-Phelan In Rematch; Cahill Enters Governor's Race

SEPTEMBER

Mayor Thomas Koch
and former Mayor William
Phelan easily beat back chal-
lenges from two political
novices in the preliminary
election to set up a rematch
of their 2(X)7 contest. Koch
drew 7.970 votes to 7318
for Phelan.

Paul Turowski, a Quincy
pc^lice sergeant, got 469
votes and Joseph OMalley,
a postal worker, had 329.

Phelan was seeking his
fourth term in the mayor's
office m 20()7 when he was
upset by Koch, who re-
signed as director of Parks
and Recreation, to run. It
was the first rematch of two
former election foes in 75
years in Qumcy.

State Treasurer Tim Ca-
hill, who began his politi-
cal career as a Quincy city
councilor 22 years ago, an-
nounced his candidacy for
governor as an Independent
in the 2010 election.

By changing his party
from Democrat to unen-
rolled. Cahill would avoid
a primary contest with Gov.
Deval Patrick, the Demo-

running for a second term.

"I do not enter this race
to run against any individual
or party," he said.

"I'm running because I
believe we need new lead-
ership to make Massachu-
setts a vibrant place where
jobs grow and economy
rebounds, where taxes are
cut both to keep the state
competitive and to lessen
the burden on the middle
class."

The Quincy and Wey-
mouth legislative delega-
tions expressed concerns

noM

over plans by the Depart-
ment of Mental Health to
close the 16-bed inpaUent
unit at Quincy Mental
Health Center and turn to
community placement op-
portunities.

A year-long study of
Quincy Center's historic
buildings and resources, the
first of its kind in 2.3 years,
was completed to be a criti-
cal tool in the development
of a $ 1 billion plan for a new
downtown Quincy.

A granite marker was
placed on Mclntyre Mall
next to City Hall honoring
U.S. Navy Capt. Richard
Stratton and the late U.S.
Air Force Capt. Alan Brud-
no. both North Quincy High
School graduates, who spent
more than six years as pris-
oners of war in Vietnam.

Stephen Kozlowski and
Mark Pitts, DPW employees
promoted by former Mayor
Phelan a few day before his
term ended and quickly de-
moted by Mayor Koch were
reinstated by a mediator
after they claimed Koch's
action was poliUcally mofi-
vated.

Peter Boylston Adams
said the Adams family, who
gave Merrymount Park to
the city, was opposed to a
high school track facility
at Pageant Field and would
have said so in 2007 buy
they didn't want to influence
the Phelan-Koch election.

City Council President
Jay Davis said the ques-
tion he hears most as he
campaigns for reelecUon is:
"Why don't we have a four-
year term for mayor?"

OCTOBER

Acting Fire Chief Joseph
Barron, 55, a veteran of 31
years in the Quincy depart-
ment, was nominated by
Mayor Thomas Koch to take
over the position permanent-
ly pending approval from
the State Civil Service.

Mayor Koch and for-
mer Mayor William Phelan
clashed on virtually every-
thing during a candidates
night at the Neighborhood
Club as they neared the end
of their second campaign
against each other for the
office of mayor. Their only
agreement was opposition
to charter schools.

Twenty-five percent of
the expected 4,222 con-
struction jobs created by
the $1.4 billion New Quin-
cy Center redevelopment
project would go to Quincy
residents under a tentative
agreement between the city
and developer StreetWorks
LLC.

Mayor Koch and Cong.
William Delahunt an-
nounced that more than $14
million in federal and trans-
portation funding will be
used in the city's $1 billion
plan to revitalize Quincy
Center.

The State Department of
Environmental Protection
approved plans for a track
facility at Faxon Field, rul-
ing that the plan meets wet-
land standards and will not
cause flooding in the sur-
rounding area.

Corcoran Development
withdrew a Planned Unit De-
velopment plan to-purchase
land from the National Fire
Protection Association and
construct a %-unit apart-
ment building off Willard
Street in West Quincy.

Mayor Koch unveiled
designs for a $3 million
state-funded overhaul of the
intersection of Hancock and
Squantum Streets in North
Quincy in a plan to improve
conditions for both drivers
and pedestrians.

The city received a fed-
eral grant of $3,760,000
for the project that will re-
store 80 acres of the Broad
Meadows marsh, grassland
and saltwater channels and
ponds. The city will add $1
million to the project, which
is expected to take four
years.

The Board of Registrars
removed two individuals
from the voting list but re-
tained Elder Services Direc-
tor Thomas Clasby Jr., who
was said to live in Fitchburg
and not 46 Harbor View St.
in Quincy as he claimed.

Sparks from an outdoor
stove touched off propane
tanks and the fire destroyed
a house and garage at 97

2009

Mollis Ave. The blaze ap-
peared to be accidental but
police opened an investiga-
tion just the same.

Ihe city reached an
agreement with Wal greens
company to build a pharma-
cy at the intersection of East
Squantum and Hancock
Streets. The new Wal greens
will have no curb cut onto
Hollis Avenue, which was
of critical concern for the
neighbors.

The School Committee
unanimously voted to ac-
cept the site of the former
Winfield House restaurant
on Hancock Street for a new
Central Middle School, a
major step forward in a plan
that has been in the works
since 1997.

More than 250 volun-
teers gathered to build a
state-of-the-art play area at
the 4.5 acre Brill Field Park
in Houghs Neck. It was the
perfect playground as envi-
sioned by 30 children ages
4 to 10 from the neighbor-
hood.

Gov. Deval Patrick al-
located $348,000 in federal
stimulus funds to Quincy
and Mayor Koch said it
would be used to rehire
four laid-off firefighters as
part of his effort "to do ev-
erything possible to protect
public safety."

Hank Klibanoff, winner
of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize
for history with his The
Race Beat: the Press, the
Civil Rights Struggle and
the Awakening of a Nation,
was the featured lecturer at
Eastern Nazarene College.

Congressman William
Delahunt and City Council-
lor John Keenan were hon-
ored with 2009 Good Scout
Award by the Boston Min-
uteman Council of the Boy
Scouts of America.

A report reviewed by the
School Committee showed
that Quincy 's third and sev-
enth graders scored above
the state percentage of stu-
dents passing the English
portion of the MCAS. Each

grade beat the state average
by one point.

Deaths in October in-
cluded:

Alice Guilmartin, 95, of
Quincy, co-founder of the
Retired leacher's Scholar-
ship Fund.

John M. Keeley, 85, of
Quincy, retired major in the
Massachusetts State Police.

Robert H. Brandt, 83, of
Quincy, CEO and president
of S. Gunnar Myerbeck, an
advertising agency.

Richard F. MacKenzie,
79, of Quincy, retired build-
ing inspector.

NOVEMBER

Thomas Koch retained
his job as mayor with a re-
sounding victory over for-
mer mayor William Phelan,
in the second matchup for
the post by candidates from
two of Quincy 's most formi-
dable political families.

"I'm humbled by the vote
of confidence from the peo-
ple of this city," said Koch.
Then he had a word for the
opposition, quoting Mother
Theresa: "People are often
unreasonable, irrational and
self-centered. Forgive them
any way."

Koch got 13,230 votes,
or 53.80 percent, to 1 1 275.
or 45.85 percent, for Phalen.
Koch had upset then-Mayor
Phelan two years before.

State Police Exercise Educates NQHS Students

Drunk-Driving Simulated Go-Cart
Drives Home Real Consequences

By JOE REARDON

John Ainsley deftly navi-
gated the State Police simu-
lated go-cart through the
first lap of the orange-coned
layout in the North Quincy
High gymnasium.

The second circuit didn't
go nearly as smcxithly for
the 18-year-old senior. The
go-cart was programmed to
simulate the reaction time
of a drunk driver. Ainsley
bumped into several of the
cones and was more than
a little surprised by how
vastly different the second
go-around was. He knew
it would have spelled big
trouble if he were driving a
vehicle in live traffic.

The state-of-the-art go-
cart has electronic steering
and brakes that can be set
to delay. The delay of just a
couple of seconds simulates
the reduction in a person's

response time while under
the influence.

Ainsley got the message
loud and clear.

"1 had no idea what to
expect," said Ainsley. "You
get used to it a little bit. The
second time you're going
driving impaired. I'm never
going to drive impaired, I'll
tell you that much. The con-
sequences in here are hitting
a cone. Outside it's more se-
rious."

Several State Police
troopers recently spent two
hours educating more than
50 NQHS students not only
about the dangers of driv-
ing while drunk, but also of
texting and huffing while
driving. North Quincy be-
came the first school in the
state where the program was
presented. The program co-
incides well with National
Distracted Driving Month.

"This is the first one
we've done," said David
Procopio of the State Police.
"This is a new progression
we're doing today. We'll
talk to the kids of the con-
sequences of being impaired
or distracted while driving.
It's a program we're excited
about."

Members of the school's
SADD (Students Against
Destructive Decisions) and
Contemporary Issues class
were among the students
who participated in the pro-
gram.

Ryan Hurley, the school's
Health Intervention counsel-
or and SADD advisors, said
the program goes beyond
the hazards of drunk driv-
ing in its message. "It isn't
all drunk driving," he said.
"There are other concerns.
This is a great program for
any kid."

State Police Sergeant
Dan Griffin told the kids
that there have been 4,497
arrests for drunk driving and
552 car accidents responded
to by the state police alone.
Mary McNamara of MADD
(Mothers Against Drunk
Driving) pointed out how
unsafe the roads can be,
particularly around the holi-
days, and told the students
they can make a difference.

"Together we can work
towards a wonderful goal
for our community," said
McNamara. "The elimina-
tion of drunk driving "

Ainsley had a new aware-
ness of the hazards of drunk
driving following his two
laps on the course.

"I can't believe people
do it (drunk drive)" he said.
"It's stupid, to tell you the
truth."

A Job Well Done

On Tuesday, Dec. 22, at approximately 1 :07 a.m.. Of-
ficer Chnstopher Klier was dispatched to the gas station at
the comer of Coddington and Sea Streets (next to the Po-
lice Station) for a disorder. Officer Dave Cooper, who was
just leaving headquarters, no-
tified dispatched that he would
be going out on the call.

As Officer Cooper pulled
into the lot, he immediate-
ly observed a male suspect
standing in the middle of the
gas pump area flailing his
arms and yelling. Due to the
hazardous area and the sus-
pect's bizarre behavior, the
officer quickly approached
the suspect and clearly heard
him yelling, "You're all
5%@#&*n*&^%$."

Officer Cooper interrupted the raming, asking what he
(the suspect) was doing. The suspect paused, just looked
at the officer and began laughing. The suspect then started
yelling again, but now started pointing his finger at the
officer. Due to the violent verbal outburst, at least one cus-
tomer drove in and then out without getting gas and traffic
slowed to see what was occurring.

Officer Cooper attempted to calm the suspect down but
the request was ignored as the yelling continued. The sus-
pect then closed in on the officer, still pointing his finger
in the area of the officer's chest. Officer Cooper instructed
the suspect to stop moving towards him, but the suspect
failed to heed the warning, so the officer grabbed the
suspect's arm and brought it up behind the suspect, then
placed him against his cruiser.

The suspect was held in a wrist lock until Officer Klier
arrived on scene and placed handcuffs on him. As the of-
ficers directed the suspect over to the awaiting cruiser,
the suspect kept yelling and then started kicking his feet
and swung his shoulders- to avoid arrest. The suspect then
reared back and kicked Officer Cooper in the left shin.

At the cruiser door, the suspect struggled to avoid be-
ing placed inside. After being pushed inside the cage area
of the cruiser, the suspect pulled his legs up to his chest
area, then with great force, thrust them (snow boots on)
into the chest area of Officer Cooper. The officers were
able to shut the door behind the suspect and he was trans-
ported to the station without further incident.

Officer Cooper then interviewed the victim, who said
he was unloading fuel from the tanker truck into the un-
derground gas storage units when the suspect "came out
of nowhere" and started kicking the hoses going into the
ground. The victim told the suspect to get away, but in-
stead, the suspect came toward the victim, who then went
to the gas station office for help.

The suspect then started yelling at the victim, "Go back
to your P&^%$# country." The victim called "911" for
help. The suspect, a 50-year-old Quincy resident, was
charged with Assault and Battery on a Police Officer, As-
sault and Battery on a Police Officer with a Dangerous
Weapon (shod foot), resisting arrest and disorderiy con-
duct. Nice Work!

THINK BEFORE YOU DRINK
- FEES and INCARCERATION
The holiday season is in full swing and there are many
occasions to consume alcoholic beverages. The conse-
quences for drunk driving can be extraordinary. Consider
the estimated costs for a drunk driving conviction:

• Towing - $ 100 • Car storage per day - $30

• Bail fee - $40 (min) • Defense attomey fee - $5,0(X)

• Minimum fine - $500 • Victim's Trust Fund - $50

• Loss of two days work - $250

• Victim's witness fee - $35

• License reinstatement - $300

• Head injury surcharge - $125

• Driver alcohol education - $600

• Insurance increase (3 years) - $5,000

• Court Costs - $250 • Probation fee - $360

• Personal embarrassment - priceless

• I*ublic humiliation - priceless
TOTAL: minimum $13,000
There is also the possibility of being incarcerated for

"not more than 2 1/2 years House of Correction," for the
first offense. There are significant increases for each ad-
ditional offense. Your licensed will be suspected for 180
days for failure to take the Breathalyzer test. This can be
added to the one-year license suspension for the convic-
tion .There are circumstances that would bring the cost
considerably higher.

Remember, these numbers reflect the basic drunk driv-
ing charge. If there is an accident where someone is in-
jured or killed, the penalties are much stiffer. ^

Will Drywall

Work Affect

Mom's Health?

Q^ My mom's house -
• built in 1950- was
caught in hurricane Char-
ley in 2004. 1 here are some
medium-sized water stains in
the drywall that need to be re-
paired before the living room
Ls painted. My mother suffers
from emphysema, and 1 am
worried that work being done
on the drywall will affect her.
What would be the best way
to deal with this project, and
what products are best to be
used. Don't suggest opening
the windows, because this
house is so old the windows
are stuck closed. -Ama/ida H.
in Florida

A^ Actually, just open-
• ing windows to
ventilate the house would not
improve air quality if the water-
stained drywall also has a mold
issue. If black mold is visible
on the water-stained area, make
sure no one attempts repairs
without properly protecting
their lungs and eyes.

Even if black mold is not
a problem, other molds or ad-
ditional particulates, such as
dust from deteriorating sections
of drywall, can cause irritation.
At the least, while repairing
the damage, wall off the area
being worked on with sheets
of plastic that drape from ceil-
ing to floor, and wear a filter
mask (not a paper dust mask,
but a face -covering mask with
filter connections). Professional

repair crews often set up a fan
that moves air outside, helping
keep dust particles from build-
ing up.

However, if you're very
concerned about how well your
mother will fare m that environ-
ment, arrange to have her stay
with family until the repair is
completed and dust has been
cleared away.

Repairing the damaged dry-
wall is not too difficult. Ideally,
if the drywall can be removed
at the seams - which generally
line up along a stud - then the
replacement sheet can be hung
in the same spot with little trim-
ming needed. I unfortunately
can't go into too much detail
here, so I recommend picking
up a book on drywall installa-
tion and repair before taking on
the task. If you have a friend or
two with experience in hanging
drywall - even better.

Before placing the replace-
ment drywall, inspect the in-
terior wall to make sure no
additional damage or mold
has occurred and that no more
water leaks are happening If
you detect water leaks, find the
source of the leak and repair it
before replacing the drywall.

HOME TIP: Store drywall
sheets flat, and place them well
away from areas that get a lot
of foot traffic, to keep the edges
from being damaged.

Tips To Protect Your Home From Severe Weather

(ARA) - The v^'inter
months bnng not only high
energy bills, but also an in-
creased chance of certain
kinds of damage to your
home and its contents.

A few precautions can
help protect you from sen-
ous losses and disruptions
this season.

Indoor floods

While home fires make
headlines, water damage
is more common and often
just as severe. The most fre-
quent cause is faulty or bro-
ken pipes. In fact. Fireman's
Fund Personal Risk Con-
sultants see a surge in wa-
ter damage during the first
three months of the year,
when pipes are most likely
to freeze and burst. Be sure
to insulate exposed pipes.

If you leave your home
to spend time in warmer
climates or even just a
weekend on the ski slopes,
always leave the heat on in
your home and set it to at
least 55 degrees. Don't let
high fuel prices tempt you
into going lower. The pipes
that come in through your
foundation or run through
external walls can reach
temperatures much lower
than the setting on your
thermostat. Have someone
check on your home while
you are away.

A foolproof way to pro-
tect your home from broken
or leaking pipes at any time
of year is to install an auto-
matic water shutoff system.
Attached to your home's
main incoming water line,
the device senses increased
water flow caused by a burst
pipe and automatically shuts
the system off. Fireman's
Fund Insurance Company
recommends the Leak De-
fense System from Sentinel
Hydrosolutions. A 5 percent
premium discount is avail-
able to policyholders who
use this system, so let your
insurance agent know if you
install one.

Chimney and

furnace fires

While hre presents a year-
round risk, certain causes of
fire cKcur more frequently
during the winter. Chim-
neys, boilers and furnaces
are particular risks. Approx
imately 25 .(KK) residential
fires begin in a fireplace or
chimney every year, accord
ing to the Consumer Product
Safety Commission.

Why so many? Over time,
a layer of unburned carbon -
ba.sed residues (sometimes
referred to as fireplace creo-
sote) builds up along the in-
side walls of your chimney
and can eventually catch
Hre. Ihe solution is to have
a trusted, professional chim-
neysweep clean and inspect
your chimney annually.

An annual inspection is
just as important for those
with furnaces and boilers.
And. remember, your fur-
nace room should never be
used for general storage.
Wood scraps, old books,
paint, solvents and other
flammable liquids are signif-
icant fire hazards and should
be removed and stored else-
where.

Ice dams and old trees

Snow and ice storms can
create a number of potential
threats to your home. One of
these is ice damming, which
occurs in the days after a
snowstorm.

Icicles hanging from
your eaves, while they may
be beautiful, usually indi-
cate that a dangerous ice
dam has formed. An ice
dam is a build-up of ice that
can form at the edge of your
roof when snow melts but
is blocked from draining.
When more snow melts and
is trapped behind this ice.
the resulting water backup
can soak through your roof
and cause damage to ceil-
ings, walls and more. The
most common causes of ice
dams are clogged gutters
and insufficient insulation,
both of which are easy to
remedy.

HEALTH and FITNESS

' Deter miNation' Is Key To Keeping New Year's Resolutions

(WARWICK, Rl) - This
year, many Americans will
make a New Year's resolu-
tion to loose weight and/or
become more physically ac-
tive to improve their health.

Keeping resolutions can
be difficult, but those who
plan ahead and set a goal
have the best chance for
success.

The American Cancer
Society's new "Determi Na-
tion" program offers op-
portunities to participate
in kKal endurance events
such as marathons, half-
marathons, tnathlons. and
cycling events, that will
not only help the individual
with a goal to reach that
New Year's resolution while
reducing their own cancer
nsk. but to dedicate their

training and participation to
a lifesaving effort to fight a
disease that has already tak-
en too many lives.

Veteran athletes and
those new to training are en-
couraged to challenge them-
selves to find an event, set a
goal, and help make every
mile more meaningful.

"The Determi Nation
program represents the hard
work, strength and commit-
ment needed to compete in
an endurance event, and
these are the same qualities
the American Cancer So-
ciety calls on every day in
the race to save lives." said
Donna Abruzzese. Ameri-
can Cancer Society. New
England Division vice pres-
ident of special events.

The American Cancer

Society DetermiNation en-
durance event program will
provide the support, train-
ing, and fundraising tools
needed to achieve personal
victory - first to raise funds
that will help save lives, and
then to cross the finish line
on race day.

While raising money to
support the American Can-
cer Society's efforts to fight
the disease, participants
receive numerous benefits
to help them achieve their
personal victories, including
free local or group training
with Greater Boston Run-
ning Company and a 10%
discount to its Lexington
or Hingham stores, race
weekend amenities, fund-
raising incentive prizes and
more. Fundraising commit-

ments vary by event.

In Rhode Island, official
race partners include the
the Cox Sports Marathon &
Willow Tree Half Marathon
in Providence, RI (May
2). Other DetermiNation
events around New England
include the upcoming Hyan-
nis Marathon, half marathon
and lOK (February 28), a
Boston Marathon qualifier
race and the KeyBank Ver-
mont City Marathon in Bur-
lington, VT (May 30).

Runners who have quali-
fied and registered for the
Boston Marathon (April 19)
may also choose to raise
funds for the American Can-
cer Society through Deter-
miNation.

In addition, the Society
will host its second annual

Tips To Relieve Winter's Achy Knees

(ARA) - The tempera-
tures drop, the skies cloud
over and your knees are ach-
ing. As the winter months
settle in. so can osteoarthri-
tis (OA) pain in your knees.

While researchers aren't
exactly sure why tempera-
ture and barometric changes
trigger achy joints, a 2007
Tufts University study sup-
ports evidence that the two
are linked.

More than 10 million
Americans suffer from OA
in one or both knees. The
cartilage that protects the
ends of the bones slowly
weakens, and the synovial
fluid, or joint fluid, may lose
its ability to absorb shock.
Stiffness, loss of movement
and joint pain are the result.

if you suffer from OA.
what do you do to ease your
pain as the cold weather de-
scends across the country?
Here are some helpful hints
to help you overcome the
aches of winter:

• Regular exercise. Al-
though it may seem counter-
intuitive, exercising an ach-
ing knee is one of the best
things you can do for it. By
keeping your knees moving
you can increase flexibility,
strengthen the muscles that
support the knee and help
maintain a healthy weight.
You can find detailed in-
structions on knee exercises
at OAKneeRelief.com in-
cluding: supine straight leg
raises, short arc quad exten-
sions, modified partial lung-

es and step ups. Talk with
your doctor about which ex-
ercises are best for you.

• Viscosupplement in-
jection. This treatment is
specifically designed for
osteoarthritis of the knee. It
involves the injection of a
gel-like substance into the
knee to supplement the joint
fluid and restore the shock-
absorbing properties. A
single injection can provide
up to six months of pain re-
lief and the treatment can be
repeated if the pain returns.
Typically a specialist such
as an orthopaedic surgeon
provides this type of treat-
ment.

• Anti-inflammatory
medications. Arthritis
causes inflammation of the

joint, and using nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs can
reduce this swelling and re-
lieve pain. There are options
for both over-the-counter
and prescription products to
help ease the pain.

• Surgery. Usually a last
resort, surgery involves
cutting away damaged car-
tilage, removing particles
from the joint, or a complete
joint replacement, depend-
ing on the extent of the ar-
thritis.

If you are suffering from
knee pain this winter, make
sure you ask your doctor if
osteoarthritis may be the
reason and what possible
treatments might be appro-
priate for you.

INCORRECTLY PEGGED

So-called "peg laterals" are
small, cone-shaped teeth that
devetop on either side on the top
two frontteeth.These undersized
teeth appear to be "t»aby teeth"
sun-Qunded by larger penmanent
teeth. As a result, the smile looks
imbalanced. Fortunately, the
dentist can restore peg laterals
to the size of nonnally devel-
oped incisors by building them
up with composite material. Tbis
tooth-cx)lored resin restoration
requires no anesthetic and can
be accomplished in one visit.
After the dentist acid-etches the
tooth's enamel so It can property
accept the resin, layer upon lay-
er of resin is applied to the tooth.
After the cornposite material
cures properly the augmented
looJh is shaped and polished.
TTie result compares favorably
with sun-Dunding natural teeth.

GET A GRIP!

A firm handshake gives an
indication of a man's personality
as well as provides clues about
his longevity. According to one
study involving middle-aged
Japanese men, those with the
strongest handgrips enjoyed a
48 percent lower death rate than
men with the weakest grips, even
after factors such as cholesterol,
blood pressure, body mass index,
smoking, and drinking were taken
into account. Another study,
involving British men between
ages 40 and 59, showed that those
who lost more than 1.2 inches in
height had a 64 percent higher 20-
year mortality rate than men who
lost less than 0.4 inches in stature.
Grip strength and preserved height
are indicators of musculoskeletal
fitness and physical strength,
which play roles in preserving
longevity.

What Is

Secondary

High Blood

Pressure

DEAR DR. DONOHUE:
I am a 42-year-old male who
has had high blood pressure
for the past two years. I have
been on many medicines, but
my pressure doesn't go much
lower. I don't smoke or drink.
No one else in my family has
high blood pressure. I am
about 25 pounds overweight.
My doctor mentioned that I
might have secondary high
blood pressure. What is that?
-R£.

ANSWER: Ordinary high
blood pressure, or hypertension,
is essential hypertension - high
blo(xl pressure that comes on
its own. Secondary high blood
pressure is an elevation of pres-
sure due to another process.

A leading cause of second-
ary high blood pressure is a nar-
rowed kidney artery. Because of
the narrowing, the kidney thinks
body's blood pressure is too low.
It begins to turn out large quan-
tities of renin, a kidney-made
chemical that raises blood pres-
sure. TTiis kind of high blood
pressure is known as renovascu-
lar hypertension. It can be cured
by relieving the blockage in the
kidney artery.

Adrenal gland tumors, Cush-
ing's disease and a very unusual
tumor called a pheochromocy-
toma are other causes of second-
ary high blood pressure.

The bright side of secondary
high blood pressure is its cur-
ability when the "secondary"
process is treated.

Your young age and the fact
that your pressure doesn't re-
spond to the drugs well are two
factors that suggest a secondary
process might be going on

The American Cancer
Society helps people stay

or detecting it eariy; get
well , by being in their comer
through every step of their

DEAR DR. DONOHUE: I
have jogged for many years.
It's kept my weight down, and
I do feel really fit. Twice I have
sprained an ankle by stepping
in a pothole I couldn't see.
What's the right way to treat
a sprained ankle? - GA.

ANSWER: I can't improve
on the time-honored RICE rec-
ipe.

"R" is for rest. Don't put
weight on a joint whose pain in-
creases by so doing.

"I" is for ice. A good way to
apply ice is to put it in a plastic
bag and then put a thin towel
between the bag and the injured
joint. Keep the ice in place for
15 minutes. Repeat the icing
three or four times in the first
day or two. Then switch to hot
packs.

"C" stands for compression.
An elastic wrap does just fine.

"E" is for elevation. If it's
the ankle that's injured, the leg
should be propped up. All these
steps are done to prevent bleed-
ing and swelling during the first
two days of an injury.

Use pain medicine as need-
ed. Tylenol is a good choice.

ters, hut he will incorporate them

By SEAN BRENNAN

When North Quincy's
Mike Morrison blocked a
game-winning three point at-
tempt from Quincy's Kenny
Nguyen, as the game clock
dwindled toward {K):(X), the
Red Raiders completed a
come-from-behmd win over
their city nval,6l-59.

The fine defensive play
by Morrison ended what had
been an exciting back-and-
forth affair in the third place
game of the John Adams
Basketball Classic at Brain-
tree High School. The Raid-
ers (3-3 overall) trailed the
Presidents 44-31 at the half-
way point of the third quar-
ter until a 14-2 scoring run
(including eight points from
senior captain Johnathan
Coates) propelled North
Quincy to a 47-46 lead en-
tering the fourth quarter; the
Raiders never trailed again.
North Quincy finally put
away Quincy when senior
forward Matt Jayne com-
pleted a three-point play
(layup and free throw, 60-
56) with under a minute left
in the contest.

"We took care of the ball
a little better in the second
half," said NQHS head coach
Kevin Barrett who watched
as his team left the court at
halftime trailing Quincy 35-
27. "Costly turnovers kmd
of dug us a hole early on in
the game, but I thought we
maintained our poise a little
bit better in the second half.
We took care of the ball and
that resulted in some scoring
opportunities."

In the second half of the
game, those scoring op-
portunities Barrett refer-
enced came from multiple
sources. Coates, a scoring
threat from the perimeter,
dropped 12 second-half
points on the Presidents; se-
nior captain Mike Stanton
(12 second-half points) and
senior forward Matt Jayne
(eight second-half points)
also produced when North
needed them most.

Jayne, starting in place
of the injured Tim Liu/./o,
had the game's biggest
bucket. With under a min-
ute left in regulation, Jayne
took a pass from Morrison
and .scored on a layup in the
paint. On the shot, he was
fouled, and. he then calmly
stepped to the foul line and
drained the free throw Ihe
three-point play gave .North
Quincy a 60-56 lead, fol-
lowing a clutch three-point
basket from Quincy's Ce-
dric Dybaud that made it
a one-point affair (60-59).
Jayne connected on one of-
two free throws at the other
end of the court and when
Morrison blocked Ngu)ens
final prayer it was game-sei-
match Red Raiders

"(Jayne) did a great job
not only offensively but he
gave us a great boost defen-
sively," added Barrett about
his senior forward. "He, and
the rest of the team, did a
great job both in our 1-3-1
and a 3-2 half-court .set de-
fense. We did a great job in
the second half getting out
and contesting shots on their

shooters because they have
a handful of them."

For Quincy (2-3 overall),
the loss to North Quincy was
a game that got away Ihe
Presidents led 13-11 after
one quarter, and after junior
Oliver O'Sullivan drained a
three-pointer near the end of
the first half, Quincy held a
35-27 advantage. Starting
the second half up seven
points. Quincy pushed that
lead to 13 points (44-31)
following an 8-2 scoring
run. During this run. juniors
Seih Pullum scored on :: •
layup. Brian .Malger buried
a three-pointer and Kevin
McDonough hit two tree
throws, but North Quincy
responded with that 14-2
run. a scoring streak that
gave the Red Raiders the
lead for good

Ihe final quarter saw
North Quinc) lead by aN
man> as five points (57-
52) Quinc). twice, cut the
deficit down to one-point
(57-56 and 60-59). and fol-
lowing Ja>ne's one-of-two
perfi)rmance al the line, the
Presidents had one final shot
at victory. Nguyen took a
pass in the right corner and
had an open look, but Irom
the top of the key. Mor-
rison fiew into the picture
and deflected the ball away
Quincy could not get anoth-
er shot off before the game
clock expired.

The win pushed North
Quincy back to 5it) and in
the process, according to
Barrett, it should give his
team some added confi-

dence moving forward this
season.

"It is a big one (vmu)."
said Barrett "We have kind
of weathered the storm in
terms of some injuries We
lost our starting point guard
Chris Delaney. we lost our
starting power forward lini
Liu/v.o and that has kind ol
created some opportunities
for some other guvs

"Now we just need to gel
health) and move on from
here. But it is a big win and
should propel us in the right
direction"

Sacred Heart SchcK)rs
Science Teacher Joseph
Wappel recently challenged
middle school students with
an egg drop experiment,
which involved not just a
lot of creativity, but also the
school principal on the roof.
Students in grades 5-8
were asked to create a con-
tainer of low mass using
the scientific method using
materials from home that
would protect a raw egg
from a two-story drop. Wap-
pel wanted the students to
understand how difficult it
was to create a rocket to the
moon that was safe enough
for man.

Students used materials
such as cardboard boxes,
tupperware, styrofoam

balls, foam rubber, saw dust,
and tissue. Containers were
designed and tested in class
pnor to the big event.

Sacred Heart School
students gathered in the
schoolyard and excitedly
watched their Principal
Katherine Hunter and Fa-
cilities Manager Paul Hines
parachute each egg from the
roof, while Wappel assessed
from below which egg made
it safely down without a
crack. The winner of this ex-
periment was Sixth Grader

Chri stina Forde , whose con- tai ner and egg had a mass of 68 grams

ARIES (March 21 to April 19)
Events could inspire adventur-
ous Lambs looking to make a
major career or personal move.
But as always, get all the facts
before rushing into any sort of
deal or commitment.

TAURUS (April 20 to May
20) What seems to be a great
opp>ortunity could cause even
usually practical Taureans to
ignore their inner caution cues.
Best to move carefully to avoid
falling into unseen traps.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20)
Need a holiday now that the
seasonal festivities are behind
you? Good idea. Plan to go to
someplace wonderful. You'll
return refreshed and more than
ready for a new challenge.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22)
Progress continues to be made
on that pesky workplace prob-
lem. Meanwhile, don't assume
a personal situation will work
itself out. Best to get more in-
volved earlier than later.

LEO (July 23 to August 22)
Catnaps are definitely recom-
mended for Leos and Leonas
who had been going at a hectic
pace over the holidays. Adding
relaxation time to your sched-
ule helps restore your over-
drawn energy reserves.

VIRGO (August 23 to Septem-
ber 22) Sure, some of the new
friends you made over the holi-
days might move out of your
life at some point. But at least
one might show significant
"staying power" with some en-
couragement.

LIBRA (September 23 to Octo-
ber 22) Encourage family mem-
bers to join you in supporting a
relative who could be facing a
difficult emotional challenge in

the New Year. Showing your
love and concern helps keep his
or her hopes up.

SCORPIO (October 23 to No-
vember 21) While a long-de-
ferred decision suddenly might
take on some urgency after
news on a related matter, you
still need to weigh all factors
carefully before deciding one
way or the other.

SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) This is a
gcxxl time to reassess the ear-
lier plan you made for the New
Year. Some elements you felt
you could depend on to make it
work might no longer carry that
assurance.

CAPRICORN (December 22
to January 19) Forming a re-
newed connection with a for-
mer associate is only the first
step toward working out your
new plans. Be prepared for
problems, and deal with them
as soon as they arise.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) A romantic situ-
ation that was going smoothly
not too long ago might take a
new turn. Be honest about your
feelings before you decide
whether to follow it or take an-
other path.

PISCES ( February 1 9 to March
20) The wise Pisces (that's you,
of course) will make sure ev-
eryone knows you plan to keep
your options open and listen to
all sides of the situation before
making any decisions.

BORN THIS WEEK: Your
honest approach to life and
living is always an inspiration
for others fortunate enough to
know you.

ARE YOU PAYING TOO MUCH FOR AUTO INSURANCE?

Some auto safety features, such drivers and passengers can reduce

as headrests, are effective only if
positioned correctly. At JAMES J.
SULLIVAN INSURANCE AGEN-
CY, we remind readers that having
the right type and level of insurance
is important to protect their personal
assets in the event of an accident. We
have over 53 years of excellence in
service and can review your current
insurance policy and identify any
gaps in coverage. Please call us at
800-818-8600 if you have questions
about your auto insurance policy. We
provide truly full service and profes-
sional, caring guidance on all your
auto insurance needs, with savings
of up to 15%. We represent 9 auto in-
surance carriers and can offer you the
t>est possible coverage. Our office is
Kicatcdat 151 Hancock Street.

According to the Insurance
Institute for Highway Safety,

the likelihood of whiplash injury
significantly by properly positioning
the headrests in their vehicles.
Numerous studies have shown that
more than 70 percent of drivers
leave their adjustable headrests in
the lowest position, where it has
minimal chance of preventing the
head from lurching backward in the
first stages of a rear-end collision.
For better protection of the head and
neck during a crash, the headrest
should be positioned so that the top
of the restraint is at about the same
level as the top of the driver's head.
The headrest should also be no more
than four inches from the back of the
head.

NOTE: To reduce the distance
that the headrest sits from the back
of the head, it may help to adjust the
tilt of the seat backward.

SEX OFFENDERS
LIMITS

Councillors unanimously
approve an ordinance estab-
lishing 'safety zones.' The
ordinance which must be
approved by Mayor Thomas
Koch prohibits Level ?> sex
offenders from entering
schools, parks, recreational
centers or elderly housing
without written approval of
officials or administrators at
the location.

SNOW PLOWING

Larry Prendeville, Direc-
tor of Public Works, outlined
the pilot program for snow
plowing currently under-
way in the city. Prendeville
said the program won't cost
more than the traditional
system, but should be more
efficient.

HONEYWELL

Councillors declined to
support a formal complaint
regarding the wire transfer
of $694,637 to Honeywell
to pay the first installment
due the company. The Nov.,
2007 transfer was not ap-
proved by City Council un-
til May of 2008. Councillor
John Keenan and Ward 2
Councillor Daniel Raymon-
di supported the report and
complaint.

Planning Director Dennis
Harrington and members of
his staff for their outstand-
ing work which has won a
series of "Outstanding Plan-
ning" awards.
