Night football appearsto be profitable venture

by Susan FaberHolding night football games at

the John J. Mills Athletic Complexat Watertown High School hasproved to be a revenue booster,officials said. But the success hasalso led to questions about the useof the field.

Delays in installing the new 75-foot-high light poles might haveincreased their cost, but moneytaken in through ticket sales hasmore than covered the expense.

"We certainly have taken inenough in football revenues to takecareof any shortfall," said the schoolboard's facilities committee chair-man, Bernard Beauchamp, onTuesday. The revenue "was beyondmy expectations," he added.

In September, the Ansonia nightgame drew a crowd estimated atbetween 2,500 and 3,000 people,while estimates of between 1,200and 1,500 people attended theBrookfield and Seymour contests.Two more night football games willbe played this month.

Purchasing the lights has been alengthy project undertaken bymembers of the WHS GridironClub, who predicted that nightgames would boost both revenueand school spirit.

After the project was approvedby the Watertown Fire District inJuly, a portion of the field had to beblasted after ledge was discovered.Another snafu occurred in Septem-

by Susan FaberAs the town prepares to initiate

a new police bicycle patrol, somelocal businesses have come for-ward to help the project. JimmyBreidenbach, owner of WatertownCycle Center on Main Street, hasdonated aRaleigh mountain bike tothe police department

Another bike has been donatedby the BraxWn Manufacturing Co.

"I thought it would be a goodidea for the community," Mr. Brei-

denbach said. "I knew that moneywas tight, particularly regardingsomething new, and I decided todonate a bike."

Raleigh bikes are specially de-signed for police patrolling and wereoriginally designed for the Seattle(Wash.) Police Department.

"This is the Porsche of policebikes," Mr. Breidenbach said. "Ithas been a resounding successwherever it's been used." The bi-cycles are extra sturdy in the wheels

and frame and are built with a frontsuspension for a controlled ride.They include front and rear strobelights, a rear carrier, a water bottlepump and a computerized speed-

'Winnie's1 impact on Taftrevealed in new biography

by Susan FaberA recently published biography

on Winifred Taft, the wife of theTaft School's founder, Horace Taft,has shed new light on her influence

In Section 2:Fall Home & Garden

pages 37-48

and on an era that later ignored hermemory. The lack of informationabout Mrs. Taft gave Anne Ro-mano the impetus she needed towrite the book entitled Winnie Taft.

Mrs. Romano, a Taft Schoolteacher arid archivist, read Mr.Taft's autobiography Memories andOpinions and found "only a coupleof lines about her," she said. "Itsparked my imagination."

The next six months were spenton sabbatical, researching the book.

"It was like digging for gold,"Mrs. Romano said. "I had to siftthrough a ton of dirt to find a tinypiece of gold. Then I tried to put thepieces together."

Ironically, Winifred Taft's obitu-ary was one of the most valuablepieces of information she foundand she discovered it at the Water-town Historical Society Museumwilh the help of Town HistorianFlorence Crowell. The document

by the Watertown-Oakville Ecu-menical Council, takes place lo-cally Sunday, October 19, at Veter-ans' Memorial Parkoff upper NovaScotia Hill Road.

Registration will beat 1:30p.m.,with the walk starting at 2. The-walk will start around the track andgo through the woods "for goodhealth and for food, not only in far-away places, but also for Water-town-Oakville right here in Con-necticut," said Olga Brace, one ofthe organizers.

The event is held each year incooperation with Church WorldServices, and is open to anyonewishing to participate, young orold. It helps fight hunger both lo-cally and worldwide.

Recipients include displacedfamilies, battered women and theirchildren, the unemployed and eld-erly, as well as many areas in theworld where people need to walkgreat distances to obtain water.

Last year the walk raised morethan $4,500, although there wereonly 35 walkers with sponsors. Aquarter of proceeds raised go to theWatertown Food Bank.

According to statistics cited bythe church council, one in eightpeople the world over is chroni-cally hungry, and 40,000 childrendie each day from hunger-relateddisease.

This year marks the 50th anni-versary for the CROP Walk itselfand Church World Services will beproviding another style of T-shirtsthis year with more colors. Therealso will be T-shirts for youngstersup to age 8.

The CROPWalkCommittee willbe promoting the same offer as it

4 — Town Times, October 16,1997

Opinions/Perspectives

One down, one to goThe Town Council last week filled its vacancy by appointing Repub-

lican Tom Durso to fill the seat left open by the resignation of partymember Scott Musselman. The appointment, supported by the currentRepublican members, did not "officially" get the endorsement of the threeDemocratic members, who abstained from the balloting.

Neverttieless, Mr. Durso now is abonafide member of the nine-personpanel, and has fewer than four weeks to muster an election campaign, asall council terms are up for grabsNovember4. Should he notbe re-elected,this would have to rank as one of the shortest incumbencies in the town'spolitical annals. Unfortunately, the delay was not of Mr. Durso's doing.There's bound to be some voters out there who if not in the ballot booth,will be rooting for this underdog in their hearts.

Getting a new town manager has proved ID be a much more difficultcase to solve. The two top choices both said thanks but no thanks, so thesearch is back on. The town's hiring consultant is sifting through theresumes again and is expected to shave the list down to about eight viablecandidates.

It is conceivable, and now appearing very likely, the council will havea different, if not substantially altered, makeup when it comes time toofficially have someone sign on the dotted line to take the job. Councilmembers seated now might not be around then, so if a candidate doesquickly move to the forefront and is chosen soon, he or she might face awhole new batch of council people next month.

In this town that's known for its politics, that one-word response in thebanking commercial frequently seen on TV appropriately describes thebizarre situation here.

Typical.

("Where will the 20th be?") in

Op-EdWhat have you done for me lately? A lot!

by M. Jodi Rell

"What have you done for melately?"

That was a question recentlyasked of me following a speech toa Middletown area civic group bya twenty-something businessmanwhose forthrightness was onlyoutdone by his rudeness in wag-ging his right forefinger in myface for extra emphasis.

Resisting an effort to soundlike my mother (and hopefully hismother) by scolding him for hisimpolite finger movement, I didnot hesitate to answer thequestion in great detail. When Ifinished, the gentleman thankedme — not just for answering hisquestion, but for making himaware of all that has in fact been"done" in the last three years.

So, just what have we done forthis gentleman and for you lately?

Under the Rowland/Rell Ad-ministration state taxes have beencut by an astounding $1.2 billionsince 1995. We have cut the stateincome tax, instituted a propertytax credit, reduced the corpora-tion tax, trimmed the gas tax,phased out the inheritance tax, cutthe data processing tax and more.We have taken money out of thestate's coffers and put it back intothe economy and the taxpayers'wallets where it belongs.

We have produced threebudget surpluses in a row. How?By cutting stale spending. Theoverspending of the lale '80s andearly '90s that led to record

deficits and record tax increasesis a thing of the past. Spendingincreases in each of the past threeyears have been held belowinflation levels, a rarity in .government circles.

For seven consecutive years— until 1995, no deposits weremade into the state's Rainy DayFund. In fact, the fund wasdepleted and was empty forseveral years. In each of the pastthree years, we have depositedsurplus funds into the Rainy DayFund, and it now carries itslargest balance ever — $336.9million.

We have also paid off $ 1billion in state debt that wasoriginally incurred in 1991 whenthe state had to borrow money tocover accumulated past budgetdeficits. We were able to prepaythis debt, easing budget con-straints in future years.

Fifty-eight thousand, sixhundred new jobs have been cre-ated since 1995. In fact, we haveregained 55 percent of the jobswe lost during the prolonged eco-nomic recession that gripped ourstate for too long. Also, morethan 140 new companies havemoved to Connecticut in the lastthree years, bringing 9,900 newjobs to the state.

We have moved 7,000 off ourwelfare rolls and have saved inexcess of $110 million in stalefunds by passing welfare reformlegislation that has served as a

model for the nation.We have also passed several

new state laws aimed at combat-ting child abuse, enacted man-aged care reform which willincrease the state's oversight ofthe managed care industry andexpand consumer rights, estab-lished a statewide "schoolchoice" program to improve edu-cational opportunities for all ourstudents, and created a lax-de-ferred college savings programthat will help parents meet thefuture higher education costs oftheir children.

These are just a few of the sig-nificant accomplishments of thepast three years. Much more re-mains to be done — and will bedone.

So, if you happen to run intosomeone who wants to knowwhat we have been doing for youlately at the stale capiiol, tellthem: quite a lot!

M. Jodi Rell (R) is Connecti-cut's lieutenant governor.

yesterday's Town Times (October7, 1997), I found some wrong in-formation that I fee! should be cor-rected.

You have written that now is agood time for the townspeople tolet us know their feelings aboutnext year's Oktoberfest, which isall right with us. The only thingwrong is that you told any of thesepeople with thoughts and prefer-ences to call or write the committeeat the Watertown Recreation De-partment

Yes, it's true that we used LisaCarew's office to meet, but that'sall it was, a meeting place. Lisadoesn't need any more paperworkor phone calls than she already has.

Even though some of the towndepartments assist the OktoberfestCommittee we are a separate or-ganization and not connected to theTown of Watertown. So could youplease let anyone know that wouldlike to contact us to please write atthe following address: WatertownOktoberfest Committee, P.O. Box372,Watertown,CT 06795.Thank-you.

(Ed. Note: We appreciate the not-ing of the official address for theWatertown Oktoberfest Committee.Many times the town's recreationoffice, simply by virtue of its heavyinvolvement in community activi-ties, becomes a "trading post" andsounding board for ideas and con-cepts.Ms. Carew andretireddirec-

tor Donald Stepanek would attestto this, no doubt. But yes, we agreeMs. Carew has enough to do al-ready. So, folks, send those com-ments to the committee while Okto-berfest memories are still fresh andlet's see what evolves.)

I am writing to express myamazement of the article written byJim Dreher in the October 7,1997Town Times. For a moment, Ithought I was reading the wrongpaper. The Town Times is our local,community paper, not one to bashour town.

I am a parent and loyal supporterof the Watertown High Schoolvolleyball team. How dare you writesuch a horrible article about thegirls and their team! I do not be-lieve you have been lo any of theirgames and 1 know for a fact youhave never contacted the coach.Words like "dismal," "personalscratching post," "a season that hasveered badly off course" and "in-flicted ultimate humiliation" do notbelong in an article about a highschool team.

These girls practice every day,and do the best they can. Not eve'team can be on top, but they con.out of each game with a positiveattitude, camaraderie, and the de-sire to do well.

These girls deserve an apologyfor such a degrading article. Nohigh school team or any learn for

Candidates,election '97To The Editor:

November and the elections arecoming; I would urge all registeredvoters to exercise their rights andget out to vote.

When you enter the voting boothto pull down the levers of yourchoice, remember the past yearunder a Republican-controlled(Town) Council-Board of Educa-tion.

The first Republican fiasco thatcomes to mind that cost the taxpay-ers of Watertown unnecessarymoney was the new town hall loca-tion; we the taxpayers spent moneyon surveyors' fees, architect fees,and voting booth fees, just to men-tion a few. The town hall was aRepublican failure, but we the tax-payers paid the price. .

The next fiasco that comes tomind is the new school on Buck-ingham Street. Not that I'm againstthe new school, I'm not, but I amskeptical of a pre-K through secondgrade system that was pushed downour throats by yet again the Repub-licans.

This $20 million-plus sectionofland and building comes completewith a tenant that we (as a town)will charge rent and be responsible

for some of its upkeep, again aRepublican fiasco, a $20 millionfiasco.

When a citizen goes before thecouncil to speak, he or she does notalways expect to be listened to,because they are the elected leadersand know better than us. But whatwe do expect is courtesy and notrudeness. Some of the town's citi-zens have been called asinine andridiculed because of their accent. Isthis how our elected leaders areexpected to treat us? Well, they (theRepublicans) have done just that.

Do they think we the voters areso stupid that we don't rememberhow we have been treated the pasttwo years by the Republicans; "betthey do!"

Well, come November remindthem of their errors, and vote theirasinine bottoms out. The Demo-cratic party needs your vote to makethe difference; we listen, we care.

The voting booth lever is yourway of saying listen to me, I'mimportant, I count, and you workfor me. So in November make theright choice; pull the Democraticlevers. We're people like you work-ing for you the people.

Sincerely,Nicholas Reynolds,

Watertown

To The Editor:The Republican members of the

Town Council feel a need to replyto Mr. (Robert) LeBlanc's letter ofOctober9,1997. Whether you haveseen ourre-election brochure ornot— the facts are clear! •

The projects listed below will befunded by various grants — notbonds/borrowing. You, your chil-dren.and grandchildren will onlyenjoy, not pay for these. UnderRepublican leadership the town hassecured in excess of $ 15,000,000 ingrants or, commitments for grants.

Had the town of Watertown notapplied for these grants, you, thetaxpayers, would have paid the sameamount in state and federal taxeswithout personal benefit. Webrought the funds to Watertownrather than having these funds go toother towns.

To The Editor:As election day for Watertown

Town Council draws near, I haveheard little comment about thepolice investigation set into motion

by the Town Council last winter toinvestigate thehistoricdistrictpeti-tions. This is an important issuethat must be addressed by the can-didates.

You may recall the sequence ofevents. The Town Council adoptedan ordinance to establish a historicdistrict. The Watertown town char-ter allows the citizens to overturn aTown Council ordinance by a peti-tion and referendum vote. Withindays the petition-circulators gath-ered sufficient petition signaturesto force a referendum. The townclerk certified the petitions.

However, the historic districtproponents, including the Republi-cans on the Town Council, realizedthat a referendum open to the en tireWatertown electorate would spelldefeatforthehistoricdistrict. There-fore, theRepublican Town Councilattempted to kill the referendum onthe basis of a technicality. Theyclaimed that the petitions wereinvalid because some of the signa-tures supposedly were not witnessedby the circulators of the petitions.

The legal relevancy of whetherthe petitions were witnessed de-pends upon what law controlled thepetition process. If state law con-trolled the process, the witnessingof the signatures-may indeed havebeen.relevant. If the town chartercontrolled the process by which thepetitions were signed, then thewitnessing of the signatures was

totally unnecessary and the peti-tions were unquestionably valid.

Instead of obtaining a simplelegal opinion to determine whatlaw controlled, the RepublicanTown Council chose a more diffi-cult and intrusive route. They ap-proached the State Elections Com-mission to investigate. The com-mission declined. The Town Coun-cil next requested the state's attor-ney to investigate and prosecutecirculators who may have failed towitness the signatures. The penaltycould have been up to one year inprison and a fine of $2,000. Thestate's attorney declined to investi-gate, apparently because they be-lieved no laws were broken.

Finally, the Republican TownCouncil requested the WatertownPolice Department to investigate.They did.

The police investigation zeroedin on Democrats although no morethan half the circulators wereDemocrats. The police questionedat the police station two Demo-cratic members of the Town Coun-cil, the chairman of the DemocraticTown Committee and other mem-bers of the Democratic TownCommittee. The police also ques-tioned the chairman of WOTA(Watertown-Oakville TaxpayersAssociation).

The police pressed the "sus-pects" to withdraw their petitionsin order to end the investigationtargeted at them. The police alsotold the Democratic suspects toencourage other Democratic circu-lators to withdraw their petitions.

When the investigation wascompleted, no arrests were madebecause the police concluded thatthe town charter, not state law,

controlled and the town charter didnot require the petitions to be wit-nessed. Therefore, an investigationwas not necessary in the first place.

The Republican Town Councilknew or should have known aninvestigation was not necessary.Instead of admitting their error, theRepublicans expressed disappoint-mentthatno arrests had been made.

The whole incident is regret-table. The circulators of the peti-tions were intimidated by the possi-bility of prosecution and punish-ment. Citizens who merely signedpetitions needlessly feared they hadcommitted a crime. Who todaywants to circulate or sign a peti-tion?

The Town Council's involve-ment of the police in a politicalissue has no place in Watertown or,for that matter, any other town inthe United States. I hope that allcandidates for the Town Council— Republicans and Democrats,incumbents and newcomers alike— will agree that the petition in-vestigation was a mistake andshould never be repeated.

I invite — no, implore — allcandidates to pledge that they willnever request the police to becomeinvolved in a political issue. Ulti-mately, the voters have the abilityto determine that this tactic shallnever be employed again.

Sincerely,William Breg,

Watertown

To The Editor:During the last two years of a

Republican-con trolled Town Coun-cil, it was proven that the Republi-can slogan of "Just Do It" was livedup to on at least two occasions.

The first occasion was the firstcouncil meeting after the Republi-

cans gained control in 1995. At thattime they voted to table a vote on apossible referendum of asking thetaxpayers their opinion of a site fora new town hall. The informationon the proposed referendum wasgained through the work, of twoyears, by a Blue Ribbon Commit-tee.. In the ensuing months a new

plan, wilh drawings, came to light.To this day it cannot be ascertainedwhere this plan for a campus-stylftown hall was developed. But othing for sure they figured "Just DoIt" — ignoring the two years ofwork by the select committee andattempting to ram a plan similar tothe old campus-style Polk Schooldown the throats of the taxpayersby having a referendum on the planalong with propaganda and a modelof the proposed plan.

A second occasion of "Just DoIt" to the taxpayer comes to mind.State statutes require minority rep-resentation on all boards and com-missions, even in Watertown. Butthe Republicans in control on thecouncil and the Board (of Educa-tion) refuse, when requested, toallow minority representation onthe New School Building Commit-tee and on the New School Execu-tive Committee. I wonder if theyare afraid of outsiders learningsomething.

The Republican-controlledBoard of Education is also livinguptothesloganof"JustDoIt."Theselection of an architect for the newschool without going out to bid isone example of "Just Doing It" tothe taxpayer. It seems incredulousthat a town agency is allowed toaward a $900,000 contract withoutgoing through the bidding process,and that, Dear Taxpayer, is just thearchitectural fees.

Imagine what they are going todo with the rest of the school con-tracts. Again they "Just Did It."

The Board of Education's re-fusal to relinquish Old Polk Schoolto the town or to state when theywill give it back to the town isanother occasion of the board "JustDoing It" to the taxpayer. The boarddid have a plan for Old Polk Schoolin the last proposed school budgetand that was a line item of $60,000

The obituary pointed Mrs.Romano in the direction of othersources which she verified through-out her research.'

Horace Taft, son of an upperclass, politically-oriented family,married Winifred Thompson in1892.

"Mrs. Taft left an impression onthe school which goes on decadeafter decade," wrote Horace Taft'sbiographer, the Rev. John Dallas,in 1949. He went on to describe"the charm of her personality, herpracticality and common sense

point of view in regard to moneyand a way of bringing light andcolor as well as breaking into darkcorners."

A sympathetic picture emergesof Mr. Taft also. "He was an ex-tremely generous man," Mrs.Romano said, and her researchshowed "an honest and genuinelover of education" who helped toreform secondary schooling in thiscountry.

"He wanted to educate kids sothey could minister to others."

His wife "was so devoted to hisdreams. That was her life's mis-sion. Winifred Taft should havetaught at the Taft School," Mrs.Romano commented later on in herbook. "Her era would, unfortu-nately, not have looked favorablyupon a woman teaching boys in aprivate school."

"She thoroughly believed thateducation should be a continuousand lifelong process," wrote SextaFeira member Mrs. F. G. Woods, in1957.

Mrs. Taft's involvement withTaft came to an untimely end as thecancer she battled soon becamedebilitating. After undergoing sur-gery for a brain tumor, she died atage49 on December 17,1909. In aletter written to his brother, Mr.Taft described his wife's death as"the kind of blow that divides aman's life in two."

Mysteriously, as Mrs. Romanofound in her research, he seldomspoke or wrote about her in theyears after her death and her photo-

graphs vanished.The silence was "inkeeping with

the conventions of the times," Mrs.Romano surmised. "He kept thepersonal side to himself. He spokeof her seldom and had great re-serve. Her memory started to fadeaway."

Childless, the Mrs. Taft left noheirs. However, she left an endur-ing contribution to the school.

"She set the standard for today'sarchitecture," Mrs. Romano said.During her years as headmaster'swife, she worked with architects todesign the main building on thecampus in a Gothic collegiate sf

similar to Eton College in Engla. .Although she never lived to see thethe school's buildings completed,"she had dreamed about them andplanned them," Mrs. Romano said.

The architectural style has car-ried through to the most recentfacilities, including the new LadyIvy Kwok Wu Science and Mathe-matics Center dedicated on Sep-tember 27, and the renovated li-brary.

Mrs. Romano presented her find-ings on Mrs. Taft at an informalpresentation to Taft students onValentine's Day this past year. "Iwanted to introduce her to the stu-dents in the contextof a love story."The Tafts "formed an exquisitebalance," she said, which "broughtthe school to life. They both lovedthis place."

VNA receives grant for hospice programWATERBURY — A $5,000

grant from the United Way of theCentral Naugatuck Valley's Hos-pice Grant Fund has been awardedto VNA Health at Home, Inc., ofWatertown.

VNA Health at Home requestedthe funding to preserve its missionto provide care to people in need,the agency said, noting the goal ofVNA services is to reduce the riskof inadequate health care by im-oroving access to services for those/ho have limited financial means.

Hospice care services may re-quire nursing, home health aide careor social work services for patientsand families that exceed the levelcovered by insurance, but remaincrucial to keeping a patient safe andwell-cared for at home. The Water-town agency has observed the ac-tivity of home care required bypatients is becoming more and moreintense. Despite this lack of cover-age, need for home care or hospiceservices remains constant.

For thehome care patient with aserious chronic illness, additionalrespite services provided by a homehealth aide will preventbreakdownsin the care-giving system. For hos-pice patients experiencing a termi-nal illness, progression of the dis-ease significantly increases the levelof care required by the patient to apoint that may exceed the caregiver's ability to keep the patientsafe and comfortable at home with-out more intensive "hands-on"support by the hospice team duringthe last days or weeks of life.

By providing additional homehealth aide or nursing services, thedemands upon the care,giver willbe more manageable andthereforeassures the patient's continued careat home, VNA said. Patients in needof nursing home placement or otherin-patient care may remain safe athome with increased services until

the process of securing placementis complete.

Medical social services are amajor benefit to home care andhospice patients and families. Thesocial worker helps to facilitate theuse of community resources, andprovides counseling and bereave-ment support to patients and fami-lies faced with a serious or life-threatening illness.

VNA services arc provided byregistered nurses, therapists(speech, occupational, and physi-cal), medical social workers, homehealth aides, homemakers, trainedvolunteers, a registered dieticianand pastoral care.

Before funds are allocated, anevaluation will be completed thatincludes the patient's physical andemotional care needs, availablesupport systems, the physical andemotional needs of the primary caregiver, their financial resources, aswell as the time frames and scopeof services required.

Elizabeth Gridley, hospice pro-gram manager at VNA, reflected"these monies will allow us to pro-vide services in cases where thereis a defined scope of need," adding,"we are very grateful for this sup-port from United Way."

VNA Health at Home, Inc.,based at 27 Princeton Road, hasbeen providing for the home careneeds of patients and families innorthwest Connecticut since 1939.The agency is a private, non-profithealth care organization with alongstanding tradition of qualitycare to residents of 17 towns, in-cludingand surrounding the GreaterWaterbury area. The agency con-tinues to evolve and expand itsexpertise to meet growing needs torestore health and promote well-ness for patients challenged by ill-ness or other types of health

WATERBURY — "Who shalltell the consequences of this deed?"The words were spoken by me MostRev. Daniel A. Cronin, Archbishopof Hartford, in celebration of the90th anniversary of St. Mary'sHospital on October 4. His wordswere taken from the original ad-dress offered in September 1907for the laying of the cornerstone forSt. Mary's, and provide a verbalcornerstone for the recentcvent thatdrew more than 1,500 area resi-dents to reminisce and celebrate.

As chairman of the board ofdirectors for St. Mary's, the arch-bishop offered his congratulationsand blessings and marveled how atiny seed of hope planted nine dec-ades before had blossomed into atowering giant of "consequences."Today, St. Mary's is a $130 mil-lion-a-year health center, licensedfor 347 beds. It has been designateda Level 2 trauma center and isknown for its outreach to the com-munity, including the medicallyunderserved.

On the day of the celebration agiant block party was held at thefront doors of the hospital. Clownsand magicians roamed through thecrowds and a teddy bear clinic at-tracted attention from pint-sizedcare-givers. Four community cho-ruses entertained the assembly andthe Choir of the Immaculate Con-ception Church in Waterbury closedthe musical program with the tradi-tional rendering of "The Bells of St.Mary's."

The hospital was founded by anearly pastor and permanent rectorof the Immaculate ConceptionChurch Parish, Monsignor WilliamJ. Slocum.

In a rousing finale, all the choralgroups gathered on stage for a uni-son performance of the hospital'snew anthem, "It's About Life; It'sAbout You." The special eveningconcluded with a dimming of streetlights and the illumination of thehospital facade with tens of thou-sands of tiny lights, each one sym-

bolic of a child bom here over thepast century. The main buildingswere washed in soft blues andgreens, the facility's new signaturecolors, and giant searchlightscombed the skies.

The speaking program wascoordinated by Walter J. Biscardi,president of Biscardi Enterprises inSouthbury, who began by intro-ducing longtime hospital volunteerJoseph Vanderman, a retired Wa-terbury pharmacist who turned 90this past summer. Mr. Vandermancut the first piece of birthday cakeas everyone present participated ina hearty version of "Happy Birth-day."

Sister Margaret Rosila Kenny,C.S.J., a Waterbury native andgraduate of the St. Mary's HospitalSchool of Nursing, offered theopening prayer. The former presi-dent of St. Mary's prayed for acontinuing sense of wonder at allthe good the hospital continues toaccomplish and she asked theHeavenly Father to bless all wholabor for the health of the commu-nity.

Other speakers included SisterMary Kelly, C.SJ., the provincialsuperior of the Sisters of St. Josephof Chambery, headquartered inWest Hartford. She traced the in-volvement of her religious commu-nity and noted that each of the sixpresidents of St. Mary's has been aSister of St. Joseph.

Remarks followed by attorneyStephen R. Griffin of Cheshire, thevice chairman of the hospital'sboard; Dr. Peter J. Jacoby of Woo-dbury, chairman of the hospital'sDepartment of Emergency Serv-ices; and Waterbury AldermanLinda Wihbey, who offered con-gratulations on behalf of the City.

Sister Marguerite Waite, C.S.J.,president and chief executive offi-cer of St. Mary's Hospital, con-cluded the formal program. Shebegan by greeting special guestsincluding John Tobin, president andCEO of Waterbury Hospital, andDr. David D'Eramo, president andCEO of Saint Francis Hospital andMedical Center in Hartford.

Sister Marguerite took stock of"90 years of striving and 90 yearsof amazing accomplishment." Shenoted that the hospital admittedmore than 12,000 outpatients lastyear alone, and through its Emer-gency Department and off-site clin-ics, it cared for another 170,000people.

"More than 1,300 of the com-munity's youngest residents gottheir start at St. Mary's last year,"according to its chief administra-tor, "and we're so proud of the role

we were able to play in making surethey began their journeys healthyand whole. It is a partnership, wetrust, that will mature and groweven as Uiey do, over the manyyears to come."

Sister Marguerite noted thathospiialsknow more than their shareof suffering and sorrow also. "Thegreat mysteries of suffering anddeath are played out here everyday," she explained, "and some-times our role is limited to easingpain, to holding a trembling hand,or standing by those who watch andweep."

St. Mary's Hospital, which shehas headed since 1986, has under-gone enormous changes in the pastfew years, at an ever-acceleratingrate. She expressed the institution'ssense of moral obligation in termsof spending health dollars wisely."The total budget for St. Mary'sHospital since just the beginning ofthe decade is more than a billiondollars. Pressures mount," sheacknowledged, "from managed careproviders and consumers alike tokeep our costs at the minimum."

Sister Marguerite closed herremarks by noting that surely therewere among the celebrants at thehospital's anniversary those whowere born even before St. Mary'swas founded. "I welcome you alland ask you to hold a special placein your hearts for the youngstersamong us tonight.

"I am bold enough to hope thatin 90 years, they may bring theirchildren and their children's chil-dren to this spot and celebrate iheaccomplishments of another era.And may they say, as we do at thismoment, that they were able toaccomplish so much, through thegrace of God, because they stoodon the shoulders of giants."

St. Mary's Hospital plans a se-ries of public events in the next 16months to celebrate its jubilee, lead-ing to a festive conclusion in Feb-ruary 1999, when the hospital willmark the 90th anniversary of itsformal dedication.

Leg PainLeg pain is much too common in our

society today. The majority of all leg painoriginates in the soft tissue structures of thelow back and pelvis. By soft tissue structuresI mean either discs, ligaments, muscles, orjoints. Regardless of which tissue isinflamed, it is almost always irritated by theabnormal motion of a nearby joint.Research shows that the safest, quickesttreatment for normalizing joint motion andthus reducing leg pain (especially when thepain has been there for three months or less) is manipulationwhich chiropractors call adjustments.

Indians take Heart(s), Crusaders on deck

by Jim DreherWATERBURY — Like any

good learn does, the WatertownHigh School footbal squad got thejob done against Sacred Heart intheir 28-0 NVL victory on October11.

Not to say that the Indians stilldon't have a few kinks to work out;they certainly do.

However, it is also safe to saythatthe Indians have recovered fromtheir loss to Ansonia two weeksago, producing a pair of fairly easywins against opponents who havethe talent able to be handled.

This week presents a somewhatsuffer challenge, as the Indians willreturn to Municipal Stadium to faceHf "joss.

That's still ahead; for now, theIndians can look back at getting thejob done against a winless Heartsteam that was forced to start nofewer than five sophomores.

Against the experienced (andstronger) Indians, that was a recipefor disaster, as the loss dropped theHearts to 0-5 overall.

Using their bruising runninggame, and mixing in enough passesby quarterback Bruce Lavoie, theIndians piled up close to 300 yardsof total offense.

Senior back Frank Brevetti wasresponsible for over 140 yards onthe ground, and scored there first-half touchdowns on short runs; hehas visited the end zone 13 times.

Erevetti's first pair of scorescame on runs of six yards, with onecoming in the first quarter, thesecond in the second.

His final score came on a one-yard run with just under 30 secondsremaining in the second quarter.

Lavoie (5-for-ll, 108 yards)connected with Bob Belforti on a37-yard catch-and-run to set up thescore.

In the the third quarter, the Indi-ansscoredtheirfinalpointsonBrianPalmer's two-yard run; after that,coach Roger Ouellette, knowingthat the outcome wasn't in doubt,pulled most of his starters.

The Indians seem to have over-come their one dose of adversitythis season; the conclusive answershould come on Friday evening.

ABOUT HOLY CROSS: TheCrusaders come into the contestmuch like the Indians, with a loss toAnsonia the only blemish on their3-1 record (2-1 NVL) Afterstruggling to a 9-6 victory overCrosby in the opener, the defend-ing NVL champs and Class L run-ner-up have won two of three, andare coming off a 35-14 non-confer-ence win over Berlin.... Be on thelookout for: QB Tom Brunetti, TBBen March, FB Tom Perrelli....Last season, Crusaders defeatedIndians at WHS, 36-18.

HASHMARKS: Indians returnhome next Friday night, October24, to face Wilby, with kickoffscheduled for 7:00 o'clock. . . .Tickets are available in advance atthe WHS Athletic Office ($5 adults,

$3 students).... All tickets on gamenight are $5.

KEEPING IT LOOSE: Watertown High School cross countrycoach Jeromie Schumacher (in white hat, center) demonstratesproper stretching techniques to his boys team, which has respondedto his with undefeated record to date and first regular season titlesince 1982. Photo courtesy of Dick Beveridge.

NVL Cross Country Champsby Jim Dreher

WATERBURY — "This justgoes to show what a lot of hardwork and commitment will bringyou."

With those words, WatertownHigh School cross country coachJeromie Schumacher summed upwhat his 1997 Indians are about

They are about being champi-ons.

The WHS boys wrapped up theirfirst NVL title since 1982 on Octo-ber 7, as they defeated Crosby, 20-37, to raise their record on the sea-son to 11-0.

An elated Schumacher, who inonly his fourth season turned amediocre program completelyaround, gave the credit to his run-ners.

"They really earned this, andI'm very proud of them," he said.

Indian runners claimed five ofthe top 10 spots to ice the cake, ledby the trio ofTonyPerugini (18:20),Ken Moscaritolo (18:22) and BillGalpin (18:26), who finished 2-34over the 3.1-mile Crosby course.

James Ocampo in sixth (18:47)and Scott Scholl in eighth (18:54)places were the other top finishers.

Not content to let his team reston their laurels, Schumacher addedthe Nonnewaug Invitational inWoodbury on October 10 to theschedule.

Competing without Perugini,theirNo. 1 runner, thelndians foundthe going tough and Finished fourthwith a score of 126 points.

Galpin was the top WHS fin-isher, his 17:10 time earning him a

sixth-place finish, while Kris Hal-liwell clocked 18:36, placing him28th.

"We had a tough time scoringwithout Tony, but I was pleasedwith Bill, who ran another greatrace," said Schumacher.

Keith Nagy's 19:54 placed him12th in the boys' JV race.

' GIRLSAt the Nonnewaug Invitational

on October 10, Meghan Allen ledthe WHS finishers with a 12th-place finish of 16:55 over the 2.4-mile course in Woodbury.

On October 7, the same after-noon the boys clinched NVL lau-rels, the girls fell to Crosby, 35-22,to drop lo 1-5.

If the improving times and fin-ishes of Indian underclassmen arean indication, it shouldn't be toolong before this team mounts aserious title challenge of their own.

Allen's time of 17:46 over the2.5-mile Crosby course was goodfor fourth place, while JamieScholl's time of 20:12 took 10thplace,

"Too many Crosby runners filledin between our No. 1 and 2 runners,and it hurt us in the end," saidSchumacher.

DOT, DOT, DOT: The NVLChampionship, which had beenscheduled for October 15, has beenmoved to this afternoon (Thurs-day) at Hop Brook The CIACDivisional race will be held onOctober 25 at Wickham Park inManchester, with the State Opennext on October 31, also at Wick-ham.

who were playing their third con-secutive game without injured DaniBrown (10 goals), down to theirsecond shutout defeat in those threecontests.

SOUTHINGTON DOWNEDThe Indians bounced back from

a shutout loss to Amity by postinga blank of their own on October 7,as the Indians defeated Southing-

ton, 3-0.Sam Stanley posted the shutout

that lifted the Indians' record to 5-2-1 on the season.

Scoring for the Indians wereMelissa Aesif, Fior Arrindell andCarolyn Slupczewski.

Boys' Soccer tumbles out of NVL title chase

by Jim DreherFor the first Ihree minutes of

their crucial NVL boys soccer matchagainstNaugatuckonihegloriouslysunny afternoon of October 10, theWatertown High School Indianskept the pressure on the Grey-hounds.

The Indians didn't capitalize ontheir burst of energy out of the gate,however. The quicker Naugy team,once (hey found their legs, con-trolled play the remainder of theway, posting a 4-1 victory at Al

Deland Field, one which essentiallyknocked the Indians out of therunning in the NVL title race.

Thankfully, the match was ab-sent of the antics that had producedmultiple yellow cards and a prema-ture ending to the previous contestbetween the teams back on Sep-tember 23.

Penetrating Indian goalkeeperTom Benedict's crease with appar-ent ease, it seemed only a matter oftime before Naugy would break theice, as they forced Benedict to

handle the ball frequently.Moments after the Indians'

Alban Ajro and Mike Christoff justmissed connecting of fa direct kick,Naugy stormed up the field, withMatt Galliette taking a feed fromShefi Vinca andbeating the desper-ate lunge of Benedict at 22:58 forthe first and only goal of the half.

"They're going to come at youwith everything they've got,"Naugy coach Art Nunes told histeam at half time, butby the time theIndians did, it was already too laic.

NVL goal-scoring leader JustinNunes was stopped on a breakawayby Benedict with only one minuteexpired, but the 'Hounds weren'tfinished creating opportunities forthemselves.

Off a throw-in, Galliette scoredhis second goal of die game at 3:35to put the Indians in a 2-0 hole.

"Be careful in that first minute'."after the goal, coach Nunes re-minded his team.

That bit of advice almost rangprophetic, as the Indians' DaveGroben hit the post to the right ofNaugy goalkeeper Derek Bosticexactly 60 seconds after the goal.

Justin Nunes, who had been keptunder control for the most part bythe close marking of the Indians'Josh Hazelton, beat Benedict on arebound for his 17th goal at 5:22.

This was when the Indiansstarted taking chances, and thestorming of the Naugy goal finallypaid off with six minutes remain-ing, as Nick Gugliotti took AlbanAjro's pass and beat backup Naugygoalie Chris Carreira to narrow thegap to 3-1.

Hopes of a miracle comeback

Raiders rallied to knot the score at2-2 in the second half.

Alban Ajro rode to the rescuewith theeventual game-winner of acrisp Groben feed, and headed theball past Torrington goalkeeperChris Hochne.

Ryan Amaral and Benedictcombined for the win in goal.

byJimDreherWOLCOTT—Don'tbe fooled

by the final score; not for an instant.The Watertown High School

girls soccer team, as healthy asthey'vebeen all season.ran Wolcottragged in their 1 -0 NVL victory onMonday afternoon.

There's a good reason for that,said Indians' coach Meeghan Cof-fey after her team's league recordimproved to 4-2-2.

"Our passing game was reallysharp today, and we had some ofour injured players back on the fieldtoday, so this one felt pretty good,"she said.

Playing the great majority of the

match in the Wolcott zone, theIndians peppered Eagles' goal-keeper Lisa Zappone at will almostfrom the outset.

"Our passing game allowed usto spread the field out, putting theball to the outside, then back intothe middle," said Coffey.

Not only did the Indians outrunand outshoot Wolcott for the sec-ond time in as many outings (WHSwon a 4-1 decision on September16), they also ouducked them.

Kim Welch, who ran the balleffortlessly throughout the after-noon, hit a Wolcott defender with ashot,butXannieNelson,intherightplace at the right time, buried the

rebound past Zappone at 24:22 toget WHS on the Scoreboard.

"It just came right out the me, itwas such a hard shot by Kim," saidNelson. "I was just able to get itover her hands."

Not content with sitting on thelead, the Indians pressed the attack,utilizing their speed, with Coffeyfeeling confident enough in herdepth to keep fresh legs on the field.

"We have a depth on the benchnow that when I make a substitu-tion, it really doesn't change thepace of our game, which reallyhelped out today," she said.

After an initial foray into theIndians' zone in the openingmoments of the second half, theIndians resumed their assault, asDawn Ruscitto, Fran Cassuilo andWelch just missed great scoringopportunities to keep the scoreclose.

But not that close.On the rare instances when In-

dian goalkeeper Jess Freeman andher backs had to be counted upon,they kept their cool.

"They played really well, de-spite not getting a lot of action, theyplayed theirmarks really well," saidCoffey.

With the Indians firing high onZappone, who was staring into abright October sun.Cassullohitthecrossbar at the 26:00 mark.

On their counter, Wolcott cameascloseastheywouldtoscoring,asa shot bounced past an out-of-posi-tion Freeman, but was cleared awayat the last moment.

Freeman was credited with threesaves on the afternoon.

The one goal would have to do,but there was no doubt about thebetter team, and there'sareason forthat, according to Nelson.

"We're getting healthier andstronger," said Nelson, who is alsooptimistic about the Indians'chances to make some post-seasonnoise.

"By the tournament, we shouldbe like we were last year."

"This meetwentvery well," saidan enthused WHS coach GarrySmith. "Most of the gfirls swamwell, some swam very well, and afew were simply amazing."

Given a chance to stand out bySmith, freshman Cara Bellagambaplayed an instrumental role in thevictory, taking part in both the 200-yard medley relay (with fellow froshLaurenFogartyJunior Lisa Francisand senior Jenn Way in 2:13.21)and 200 free relay (with CarolynMcDermott, Nicole Groody andTina Polletta in 2:02.50) teams.

"We got some times that we didnot expect to see until the NVLs,which are still down the road," hesaid, noting that the team is nowbeginning to reap the benefits ofnot giving up after the slow start.

"We should have a lot more good

swims before the end of the year,"he said. "The hard work is startingto pay off."

UGLY WIN"Swim meets are often things of

beauty, and a lot of fun to watch,"said Smith after his team's 99-84victory over St. Paul's of Bristol onOctober 7.

"This one wasn't, but it was awin and we'll lake it," added theboss after the Indians' third straightwin, which raised their record to 3-5.

Lisa Francis led the Indians withtwo individual first-place finishes,taking the 50 free (-.27.32) and 100fly (1:05.10).

Stephanie Marcucio captured the200 IM (2:34.03), and LisaMarkewicz led the field in the div-ing competition with a score .of128.70 points.

The Indians' 400 freestyle relayunit of Francis, Marcucio, RosePolletta and Kate Mulreed finaishedfirst in 4:10.46.,

"We won some very close racesand did what we needed to do towin," Smith said.

All told, WHS swimmers posted12 personal best times, with Pol-letta's three (400 free relay, 500free, medley relay) standing out.

"Our depth overcame their front-line speed, and that was enough,"added Smith. "Just wasn't pretty isall."

Project helps students learn business skillsby Susan Fafeer

Local shoppers didn't have farto travel to a mall on Friday, Octo-ber 10. Fifth graders in CarolynSavarese's classroom at St. MaryMagdalen School set up their own"mini-mall" and sold their wares totheir schoolmates.

"Young Enterprises Day" wasthe offshoot of a reading unit thatfocused on children who get jobs,Ms. Savarese explained. Her stu-dents wanted to sell their ownhomemade products and learn howto handle money and make a profit.

Selling skills came into play asstudents of all ages streamed pastthe booths with dollar bills safelytucked into envelopes. StephanieCummings and Kathleen Griffineagerly sold bags of homemade

caramel popcorn to first graderswho visited the classroom.

"My family has made it in thepast," Stephanie explained. "Wedecided it would be a good ideabecause we both liked it So farwe've sold five bags."

"We need more change!" ex-claimed young entrepreneurs whorushed to a "bank" located in thecenter of the room. The supply ofDevil Dogs, silly spiders, stickangels and "the best cookies onearth" quickly dwindled.

Samantha Almeida, Jesse Jal-bert and Amanda Faroni sold teddybear cupcakes at their booth. Theiridea came from a cookbook, theysaid, and the treats, decorated withgreen icing, small paper umbrellasand teddy bear cookies, were sup-

posed to bring to mind a "picnic."Nearby, Krista Burnham and

Caitlin Van Stone invited youngvisitors to their booth to buy home-made chocolate lollipops.

Before theirbusiness venture gotunderway, students made an initialpresentation to the class, con-structed booths and advertised theEnteiprise Day throughout theschool. They also learned newvocabulary words such as "supplyand demand" and "free enterprise."

All proceeds from the sale willbe donated to the Holy ChildhoodAssociation based in WashingtonD.C., Ms. Savarese said. The or-ganization, focusing on childrenhelping children, distributes fundsall over the world for missionarywork.

HAPPY FACES: The bumpers of local school buses have some newdecorations that are also safety measures. Bus drivers affix "SmileyFace" magnets to the bumpers after they have checked that no child hasbeen left on the bus, said Diana O'Neal, manager of Ryder StudentTransportation in Watertown. The word "empty" also appears on themagnets. The buses are checked in the mornings and the afternoonsfollowing bus runs, and the magnets are then put on the bumpers. "That'sour assurance that the bus has been checked and is empty," Mrs. O'Nealsaid. "It's well worth the investment." — Times Photo, Faber

New England Streams and Lakes

Stream

The recently published STREAM MAP

OF NEW ENGLAND is just like another

map - known to Pennsylvania anglers

as the "Lost Stream Map."

The "Stream Map of Pennsylvania"

was completed in 1965 after a

thirty-year effort by Howard Higbee, a

former Penn State Professor.

Professor Higbee succeeded in

creating a map of the highest detail

possible...a map that shows every

stream and lake. He painstakingly

plotted by hand, the location of

45,000 miles of streams onto a 3 x 5

foot map.

. The map sold extremely well --

until it was lost several years later.

Incredibly, the printer entrusted with

the original drawing and printing

plates, declared bankruptcy, then

carelessly hauled Higbee's 30 years

of work to the landfill.

The few remaining dog-eared

copies became a prized fisherman's

possession. Professor Higbee was

offered $400 for one of his last maps.

And state agencies were forced to

The experts had always told

Professor Higbee that reprints were

impossible, because the maps were

printed in non-photographic blue.

Then, in 1991, at the age of 91 ,

Howard Higbee's dream came true.

Computers made it possible to reprint

the map. Holding an updated map,

Howard said, "I never thought I'd live

to see this day."

Then, by combining Professor

Higbee's knowledge with computer

technology - the STREAM MAP OF

NEW ENGLAND was created.
