Marland Street development choice

Safer or prettier?By Andrea Gregory

If a fire truck drives down Marland Street, a narrow, dead­end road on the edge of Ballard- vale, it has two options - drive out in reverse or turn around in a resident’s driveway. The same is true for ambulances and delivery trucks.

But that could change if a plan from developer James Gri- foni is adopted. Then again, trucks just might have more dri­veways to choose from, if an alternative plan is adopted.

Quarters will add up to $105KIncreasing meters to 25 cents expected to provide boostBy Meir Rinde

Todd Clarizia isn’t overjoyed the cost of parking in town lots will more than double in coming months, but the proposed fee increase does not really bother him, either.

“It's just a revenue-raising technique, whether they do it through fees or property taxes." Clarizia said yesterday after­noon. after pulling his Buiek LeSabre into a tow n lot at P;irk and Bartlet streets. "You’re going to pay for it one way or another."

The proposed hike from 10 to 25 cents per hour, approved with a 5-0 vote by the selectmen last night, is the latest in a series of increases in town fees over the past six months. Buying a town cemetery plot, getting a building permit, taking the bus to middle school - they have all gotten a little more expensive or will in the near future.

Clarizia said he is already helping the town by paying more for dog licenses, which rose from S16 to $20 for his two pooches. Considering all the other fees charged by the town, the parking meter increase is trivial, he said.

"The fee doesn’t really intrigue me much." said Clarizia. an engineer who lives just out­side downtown, on Railroad Street. “It’s still a pretty good deal.”

According to Police Chief Brian Pattullo the increase will affect 400 meters in four down­town lots, starting July 1. The lots are at Park and Bartlet streets, behind Olde Town Hall, next to Memorial Hall Library, and next to the Olde Andover Village shopping area off Main Street.

Pattullo said the town collect­ed about $80,000 per year from its parking meters when it charged 10 cents per hour. With the increase to 25 cents per hour. Pattullo estimates Andover will collect $195,000 annually, an increase of about $105,000 per year.

If every meter in town had been used eight hours per day in previous years, the town could have collected as much as $92,000 annually. The increase to 25 cents per hour will gener­ate a potential maximum of $250,000 per year.

The proposal, which Pattullo presented to selectmen Monday, also introduced a plan for the police department to eliminate meters from individual spaces. That way the town would expend less time and money emptying, maintaining and replacing parking lot equipment.

Instead of using meters, dri­ver would deposit money into a central pay machine, which would issue time-stamped tick­ets for users to leave undertheir

100 to 150 meters in a lot. we’d be maintaining one or two machines," Hashem said.

Two parking superv isors and a police officer will continue checking that ears are paid up. and issue citations to those that are not. he said.

“The same amount of moni­toring would take place." Hashem said. "Instead of look­ing at a meter for violators, would look at tickets on the windshield or dashboard."

When drivers leave lots, they will take their tickets with them. The new payment method elimi­nates the chance of finding a meter with time left on it. poten­tially raising even more revenue.

The fee increases come as the state expects to cut the amount of income tax money it is able to send to cities and towns. Andover’s 2003-2004 budget anticipates $10 million in state aid, down $1.4 million from last year.

Town Manager Buzz Stapczynski told selectmen sev­eral months ago to expect a range of fee increase proposals.

Since then, dog licenses have risen from $8 to $10; building permits increase from $7 to $10 per $1,000 of a project’s value; and Spring Grove Cemetery plots jumped 11 percent to $600.

Sunbathers who declined to give their names enjoyed the warmer weather this week by lounging in the Park. They could soon be enjoying a park renamed in tribute to veterans of World War II, on the suggestion of veteran Ted Cole.

“Everyone I mention it to, whether they’re World War II or not, thinks it's a great idea," hesays.

Cole says the Park is a key part of Andover and has offered enjoyment to many generations. He remembers climbing trees and playing with friends as a child and says others who served with him from town trea­sure the same memories.

town fought in World War II. That was about 25 percent of the population at the time, he says, yet there is nothing in town rec­ognizing their efforts. Cole says connecting the Park with the war efforts of his time seemed like an easy solution - and a gratifying idea.

“Why not? You don't have to build anything," he says. “I just want something really nice, real­ly pretty and I don’t think you can beat this. The more you stand here and look at it, the prettier it gets.”

Major says he jumped on the idea as soon as he heard about it and has already brought it to his fellow selectmen. “I fell in love with it right away,” he says.

“The Park has remained nameless, waiting for the right opportunity, and this is it,” says Major. “This is absolutely per­fect for it.”

He points out every other war seems to have a memorial in its name. The Civil War has the second floor of Memorial Hall Library, World War I has Memorial Auditorium at Doher­ty Middle School and there are memorial bridges for the Korea, Vietnam and the first Persian Gulf wars.

To pay for the monument, the selectmen would help to private­ly raise money, says Major. “All that can come after you dedicate the Park." he says.

Major says he's planning on bringing up the idea for a sec­ond time when the selectmen map out their goals and objec­tives.

The Park is home to many patriotic events each year, including Fourth of July and Memorial Day ceremonies and activities.

IN BRIEF

past and present Hood memories

OLDER PHOTO COURTESY Of ANDOVER HISTORICAL SOCIETY MODERN D4V PHOTO BY TiM JEAN

The Stowe School - named after Harriet Beecher Stowe - remained on Bartlet Street from 1888 to 1971, on the plot of land that now houses a small playing field just south of Doherty Middle School. Today one can still see stairs that appear unnecessary since there is no building there. The Senior Center Task Force is considering using the former Stowe School site for a new senior center.

Townsman internRussell Seamans, 90, of 468

Lowell St. remembers when the Hood Farm still stood on River Road. Today, and for the past 73 years, the St. Francis Seraphic Seminary stands on the site.

Both institutions were pic­tured in the Past and Present section of the May 15 Towns­man.

Russell Seamans remembers his father, Joseph Seamans, working on the farm as foreman from 1909-1922. His duties included plowing the fields, dri­ving the milk route delivery truck, and replacing any employees who failed to show up for work. As told to Bar­bara Innes, Seamans recalls the land to be ‘marvelously land­scaped, surrounded by a wall with picturesque stone, and wrought iron gates. Many cupolas majestically adorned the all encompassing ham."

Charles I. Hood was able to purchase hundreds of acres of land along River Road, stretch­ing from north Tewksbury through west Andover because he made his money by his sar­saparilla laboratory in Lowell, which produced not only sarsa­parilla. but apothecaries as well. The farm grew to include Jer­sey stock and Berkshire swine, and according to Innes, eight champion-bred heifer calves were sold for $3,140 at auction.

In 1922. Hood Farm closed due to Hood's failing health, and in 1930, the Friars of St. Francis purchased the farm­house.

about it) it's a done deal," she said at Tuesday's meeting. Kruse said her child's teacher and other teachers were not aware that the new math pro­gram eliminated the advanced classes.

MacDonald said she planned to keep her eye on how the advanced students were handled in the new program. "We don't want it to be where they’re just given extra work to do on their own," she said.

But advanced math students will benefit from the language components of the new pro­gram. said MacDonald. “It includes more reasoning and communication of information.” she said. MacDonald said advanced math students tend to have weaker language abilities and prefer to solve workbook- style problems that don't involve reading.

Doherty Middle School Prin­cipal Floyd McManus said the teachers and administrators on the curriculum council would not have chosen the program if it did not challenge advanced students. "We have an obliga­tion to provide for our more motivated students and for all our students," he said.

McManus said the sixth- grade “Every Day Math" pro­

gram does not provide for a class of advanced students, but 2001 MCAS scores have improved. He said the percent­age of Doherty sixth graders scoring in the "advanced" cate­gory had gone from 32 two years ago to 42 percent last year. The percentage of students scor- ing in the “warning" range dropped from 13 percent two years ago to 5 percent last year. Scores at West Middle showed a similar trend, he said. Converse­ly. the MCAS scores for eighth graders - who have separate classes for advanced students - in both "advanced" and “warn­ing" categories were much more

static.McManus said that if the

middle school principals had seen MCAS scores drop by those percentages, they would have quickly dropped the sixth grade program.

McManus said the middle- school math program has been the focus of teacher and admin­istrator scrutiny for three y ears. MCAS requires a background in geometry that was previously missing from Andover's middle- school instruction. McManus said the challenge was to pro­vide that background while keeping algebra instruction up to par.

union members. These days are volunteered from members reg­ularly to make up a “sick bank." Sick bank time must be approved by a board made up of teachers and administrators. The board also investigates suspect­ed sick-leave abuse.

Meyers said teachers playing hooky in Andover is a rare occurrence. “It’s not often that you have people off that aren't legitimately ill,” he said. He stressed the importance of atten­dance to the profession. “You want to be here because you’re interacting with kids,” he said.

Meyers said figures pointing to higher teacher absence on Mondays, Fridays and before and after official vacations could be reflecting teachers’ personal days. Sometimes legitimate sick­ness does coincide with the beginning or end of a vacation, he said.

Meyers pointed to himself as an example. Meyers said he once had to attend a wedding that coincided with the end of Christ­mas break, and used a personal day. Another time he was sick after February break.

Andover High School teacher Albert Cayot used 14 sick days in the 2001-2002 school year and said he usually needs the time to care for his elderly par­ents.

Cayot said his long years in Andover were a factor in his willingness to take days. “I’ve been around long enough that I'm not afraid of what anyone

thinks of me. That’s the secu­rity that comes with teaching in a district for 28 years."

Andover High School teacher Rebecca Ledig said she knew of teachers who were absent and had good reason to be so. Andover has lost teachers in recent years to cancer and other illnesses. She said she wasn't surprised that teachers are more likely to leave early for vacations or come back late. “The kids do too,” she said.

Chemistry teacher Tim Van Wey also said he didn't believe sick-leave abuse was a problem in Andover. “The vast majority of teachers use their sick time for their and their family’s illnesses," he said.

Van Wey said he was sur­prised a teacher would take a day off when he or she was­n’t sick, because teachers must make up missed time and teach the scheduled lessons when they return from a sick day. "I personally don't like to miss my class because it means I'm behind." he said.

Van Wey also said Andover MCAS scores and college acceptance rates were high, so sick leave couldn't be hurting the students very much.

Andover Livery Cab ‘parked’ for 3 daysSelectmen find 13 violations of town bylaws, leading to suspensionBy Andrea Gregory

A blue-green mini van with New Hampshire plates parked at the Andover train station caught the eye of Safety Officer Robert Cronin at 7:11 p.m. on May 1. A young man was slumped over in the front seat, he said, and in the win­dow was a sign for Andover Livery Cab Company.

Not only did Cronin issue a wake-up call for the driver that night, but the inci­dent was one of two selectmen consid­ered during a public hearing before giv­ing Andover Livery Cab Company at 19 Barnard St. a wake-up call of its own - a three-day suspension. The three-day sus­pension is scheduled to start June 30 at 9 a.m. and end July 3.

A 4-0 vote by the selectmen issued the suspension after determining the company had commited a total of 13 bylaw violations. Selectman Brian Major left the room during the hearing and was not present for the vote.

“I’ve been asked not to comment on something that is possibly going to be appealed," said Cronin on Tuesday night the day after the meeting.

Arthur McCabe, the attorney repre­senting Andover Livery Cab Company, had no comments after the decision and

advised Michael Bellmore, the company owner, not to make a statement.

During the hearing, Cronin did not state the names of the two drivers involved in the incidents leading to the suspension, but McCabe said the driver from the May 1 incident was sitting in the audience.

Cronin, who oversees the applicants for livery licenses in town, said the dri­ver on May 1 had been denied a town livery license on Jan. 6, but was driving anyway. Cronin said after waking the driver he stated he knew he did not have a livery license for the town of Andover due to his criminal history. Cronin said the driver’s tainted past includes assault and battery of a police officer.

According to Cronin the driver did not give a clear answer when asked for whom he worked. He gave his boss' name, Bellmore, who also owns King Cab in Derry, N.H. According to Cronin, the driver admitted he didn't know where 4 Peabody Road Annex in Derry, N.H. is, even though it was on the regis­tration. Cronin also said the driver admitted he was being dispatched out of the Andover office and waiting to see if anyone would need a ride from the sta­tion. Only prearranged fares are accept­

able in Andover and authorized individ­uals performing livery service through an Andover company must drive vehi­cles registered in Massachusetts.

McCabe pointed out none of the four fares on the driver’s log sheet showed a pick-up in Andover. One did show a drop off. None of the fairs showed any involvement with Derry, N.H. or airport service. Cronin said based on his log sheet it appeared the driver was conduct­ing routine practice for an Andover liv­ery service.

The second incident before the select­men took place on May 22 when a dif­ferent driver from the same company was stopped by Sgt. John Pathiakis. The vehicle had New Hampshire plates and was transporting an intoxicated minor who was passed out in the back seat. Pathiakis said the driver told him he had picked up his passenger from River Road and was bringing him to another location in Andover. According to Pathi­akis, the driver did not have his livery license on him, but one had been issued to him. Town regulations require drivers to have their valid livery license on them and the incident was the second time in a month vehicle registered to another state was conducting livery service in town.

Fifth-grade

A laptop for each kid; $2,000 billfor everyBy Meir Rinde

Ever) fifth-grade student in town would have a laptop com­puter at school under a plan administrators presented last night.

Now they just need to find half a million dollars to pay for the proposal.

The scheme would expand the schools' existing program, in which four classrooms at South Elementary and one at West Ele- mentary are outfitted with $2.(XX) laptops paid for by par­ents.

Teachers and principals say having individual computers in the classroom allows children to use word processing, spread-

rm

parentsheets and graphics as tools in their education. They say stu­dents choose the software that helps them most and take con­trol of their own learning.

But with the district in the process of eliminating 53 jobs, in part through teacher layoffs, administrators said money to expand the laptop program would have to come from an outside source. The plan could cost as much as $510,757 in addition to the money parents spend on buying computers. Technology Director Ray Tode said.

Lauching a life boat of sortsBy Andrea Dickey

This month. “Lighthouse Kids." a vacation bible camp, has been assembling care packages to be donated to indigent seamen. This is being done with collaboration of Boston Seafarer's Friend and Andover's Faith Lutheran Church, and by working together, "Operation Shoe- boxes at Sea" is well under­way.

The campers have been decorating and assembling shoeboxes overflowing with little presents donated by the congregation and the local community. Boston Seafar­er's Friend will deliver the shoeboxes, complete with a handmade greeting cards to merchant mariners whose ships will dock this summer in the ports around Boston.

The congregation, approx­imately 800 people, has been collecting toiletries, station­ary, phone cards, socks, bat­teries, and many other items that may seem common, but are precious commodities on a ship that might not dock for a full year.

Other churches have stepped up to help, including St. Augustine in Andover, St. William in Tewksbury, Wind­ham Presbyterian in New Hampshire, and St. Michael and St. Paul Episcopal in North Andover. Combined, these churches have con­tributed items to be used in the shoeboxes. Residents of Andover have also been help­ful with donations.

In the last four years, the camp has grown to include campers from other churches, not just parishioners of Faith Lutheran, according to camp director Marie J. Lucca. There are currently 75 chil­dren in camp, as well as about 25 adults.

Shoppers such as Tony Clark enjoyed Bazaar Days, the Andover Center Association's annual downtown event. Clark looked over watches dis­played on Main Street by Athlete's Corner.

Though bargains are what bring peo­ple downtown for the event, food can keep them there. Travis Gagnon cooked up hot dogs from the Village Deli.

Though the forecast put a damper on the beginning of Bazaar Days, a bag offered by Bagette caught the eye of Stephanie Manners on Friday, June 13. Bazaar Days continued on Saturday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the weather was considerably more accommodating.

Michael Harney let out a roar once Uno the Clown finished painting a tiger face on him, as part of the extras provided by the Andover Center Association on Friday and Saturday.

Bazaar Days More cash for schoolsOther towns show way to grantsBy Ben Heilman

It was a rare scene. School Committee members Tony James and Art Barber moved around the meeting room energetically. The men spoke of money for education and possible good times ahead. They were present­ing their plan to bring more grant money to the Andover School System.

Barber and James found that five nearby commu- nities manage to cash in on state and federal grant money that Andover has previously over­looked. They thentoured those towns and schools to find out how they do it.

Brookline received $763 per student in state and feder­al grant money last year, they said. That was compared with Andover’s $218. At least four other nearby towns outdo Andover in securing such grants.

All of the towns have a full-time grant manager working for the schools. Many also had education foundations. Barber and James say this is the key to

dent Claudia Bach told the School Committee last night. "If we move forward (with the lap­top proposal) it would have to be through other means."

In the best scenario, the dis­trict would find government or private grant money to pay for the plan or a scaled-down ver­sion and begin the expansion in the 2004-2005 school year. Assistant Superintendent Marcia O'Neil said.

The laptop program began two years ago as an experiment with mobile computer labs - laptops on carts which were wheeled into classrooms at South School and the two mid­dle schools. Their popularity led the districts to create the laptop purchase program for a fifth- grade class and two fourth- grade classes at South School.

Some families donated extra computers so children who could not afford to buy their own could still participate, and the School Department provid­ed laptops for three teachers.

This past year the program expanded to one fifth grade classroom at West Elementary. Both schools also have laptops on carts that circulate through other classrooms, which have them for a week at a time.

Under the plan Tode present­ed yesterday, third graders would have simple word proces­sor devices in class, fourth graders would use the rotating mobile computers, and fifth

getting more money. “Folks, they’re doing it - we can do it,” said Barber.

He and James then made a televised request for commu­nity members to join a team they are in the process of constructing to get grant

money. The initial steps of their plan will require volun­teers, they said. The volunteers should be willing to devote time, have good writing skills, have knowledge of the grant-proposal process, a back­ground in negotia­tions or the willing­ness to learn, they said.

The next step of the plan will be to start an education foundation, which the men say will eventually require a full-time director that will act independently from the schools administration. The foundation would fund enrichment programs, staff development and special pro­grams. It would not fund the schools operating budget.

Those interested in con­tacting Barber or James can send an e-mail to them at [email protected] or tjames- [email protected].

graders would have individual computers. The district would spend $60,299 on the word processor devices. $44,800 on new batteries for the mobile lap­tops, $150,000 on laptops for fifth graders who could not afford to buy the machines and $50,400 on teacher training.

The plan also calls for $70,000 for backup computers and $20,258 for wireless access, printers and other equipment. Tode said the district should also hire an assistant network admin­istrator for $50,000, a technician for $45,000. and a clerical assis­tant for $20,000.

Extended out for five years, the plan would cost $1.5 mil­lion. he said.

School Committee member Christopher Smith and parent Leo Chan, who both work in the computer industry, contested Tode’s figures, saying they have seen high-quality laptops for under $1,000 and the program's total cost should be closer to $300,000.

Tode said he was presenting a “worst-case scenario.” and noted that parent groups choose the model and features of the com­puter they will buy for their chil­dren.

Smith also said he wanted to see data showing computers helped students achieve acade­mically before he voted for the plan. A team of Boston College researchers has been observing South School students who use laptops and will correlate the information with MCAS figures this fall.

Notable difference in sale units■ AFFORDABLE HOUSINGContinued from page I

towns such as Andover.“Overall the goal is to

increase affordable housing especially in suburban areas,” says Aaron Gomstein, executive director for the Citizens’ Hous­ing and Planning Association. “We think it's effective.”

Certainly, the “affordable” units in 40B rental projects are less pricey than the regular units in the development. But these “affordable" units cost about the same as many units that can be found in the newspaper classi­fieds or on real-estate lists.

Affordable and market-rate rental prices for the rental units proposed for the former Rolling Green Hotel site were suggested to the Planning Board last week.

The proposed Rolling Green project will have a number of amenities such as a swimming pool, tot lot, basketball court and gym, bonuses some would not immediately associate with “affordable housing."

The projected rents for the 48 “affordable" Rolling Green apartments? A one-bedroom apartment would cost $975 per month, a two-bedroom unit would cost $1,200 and a three- bedroom unit would rent for $1,800 per month. The remain­ing units - out of the 191 total - were priced an additional $500 or more per month.

Other rental units try ing to make their way to Andover under 40B show similar market- rate level prices (see sidebar).

JB Doherty, of Prudential Howe and Doherty Realtors, says he has a sense of the going market rates. According to him. a one-bedroom apartment can be found for around $1 .(XX). and a two bedroom between $ 1,200 and $1,300.

“Wow, that must be pretty nice," he says about a $1,600 two-bedroom apartment in town that showed up on his listing.

He says renting a small two- bedroom house for $ 1.500, or a three-bedroom for $2,000 is possible in town. He notes that location, size and amenities affect the price of units.

It is the Zoning Board of Appeals that gives the green light to 40B projects. Though some officials believe that a town under the 10-percent threshold has little hope of fight­ing 40B projects, Gomstein says zoning boards can negotiate rent costs during the approval process. Just as towns negotiate for longer terms for affordable units, Andover could negotiate less expensive monthly costs for its affordable 40B rental units.

“The Zoning Board of Appeals should maybe negotiate for lower rates,” says Gomstein. “I think it’s something that should be on the table."

“I'm not aware of any instances where rents have been negotiated," says Daniel Casper, zoning board chair. "It hasn't come before us yet."

Following the lawThe rents for the proposed

40B rental projects such as the Rolling Green project are com­patible with the guidelines man­dated by the state. The state says the units must be affordable for a household with a $52,010 yearly income, which is 70 per­cent of the median income for the area. The medium income for the area is $74,3(X). The state declares “affordable” units should cost around $1,300 per month for this area.

“It's based on a formula, so it's not rocket science,” Gorn- stein says.

tions, there is nothing wrong with charging $1,200 or $1,300 for a two-bedroom affordable unit, though Gomstein admits "It seems a little high to me."

The difference in buyingSome 40B units - those for

sale, rather than for rent - do seem to be more obviously below market value.

“Your monthly mortgage could be less (than you pay for rent),” Gomstein says. “That's probably true at the low interest rates.”

Developer Bill Perkins has two forthcoming 40B projects. Ballardvale Crossing will con­sist of 68 units on Dale Street with a projected $160,000 to $ 180,(XX) price for its 17 afford­able units, compared to the mar­

ket price of $330,000 for the rest. Perkins also is hoping to bring 20 single-family homes, five of which will be affordable and projected to sell for around $ 180,000, compared to the mar­ket-rate homes which will cost $550,000.

“They'll be nicely done,” says Perkins. “I would expect for this you're going to see a lot of applicants.”

He says he won't be sur­prised to see 1,000 applicants hoping to call Greenwood Meadows home.

"I would encourage people to enter a lot of (housing) lotter­ies,” he says. "There's a lot of projects out there that are good."

Susan Stott, Andover Hous­ing Partnership Committee member, says Andover Commu­

nity Trust's lone house on Haverhill Street received about 100 applicants. The second ACT house, proposed for Heather Drive, isn't taking applications yet, but the project­ed price is $150,000. Stott says ACT is try ing to make the house affordable to a household mak­ing $44,580 per year, which is 60 percent of the area's median income.

"I just think that the tow n has been economically diverse for years," says Susan Stott, who does not want to see that diversi­ty lost by people tearing down less expensive, smaller homes and replacing them with larger ones. “Obtaining diversity is important to all of us," she says "I know how hard it is to get into Andover.”

Developer Steve Stapinski would like to turn his 69 Park St. structure into a place for both businesses and nine condominiums.

Park Street projectBy Andrea Gregory

When the harsh winds of late autumn strip the trees of leaves. Cynthia Good says she can see 69 Park St. from her home at the corner of Whittier and Summer streets. For the past four years, since she moved in, it's been a view of a single-family home, but Good knows that view’ will change once the plans of developer Stephen Stapinski are approved.

Stapinski wants construc­tion begins on nine condo­minium units and four busi­nesses. He says his impres­sion is the majority of the neighborhood supports his proposal and he notes he has been actively working with residents and their ideas.

But for at least some resi­dents. such as Good, the pro­posed plans, known as Park Street Crossing, raise some concern. As a member of the Committee of Neighborhood Residents, she says the pur­pose of expressing those con­cerns to the developer and Planning Board isn't about stopping the project, it’s about reaching compromises and opening the developer's eyes to the residential view­point.

The concept of a more compact use of the property - making the project 'smaller and lovely” - is key to what the neighborhood seeks, say s Good.

“I think it's really the space usage," Good says about what is raising con­cerns. "It fills that whole property "

She says the idea of losing so much green space to build­ing space and a 29-space parking lot is not appealing.

"Primarily the size is the first issue." she say s.

Another issue is whether the plans make the proper transition between the down­town business district and the Park Street's residential dis­trict. “I really think part of the issue is which way do you look down the street. I would like for him to keep looking to his left." in the direction of the residential zone, says Good.

A survey conducted by the Committee of Neighborhood Residents, completed by 25 neighbors, three of w hich w ere commercial, show ed the No. 1 concern to be the size and set back of the project and its perceived lack of green space.

But Stapinski credits him­self for his familiarity with the area, hav ing maintained a steady business at 66 Park St. for 25 years. He says he

believes his time there has given him a sense of what will thrive in the community and work w ithin the charac­teristics of the neighborhood.

"Unlike Main Street, Park Street touches the residential zone." he says. "There should be some thought to transition­ing the use."

Stapinski believes his pro­ject presents a good balance and an ideal use for a proper­ty zoned for mixed use on the border of residential and busi­ness zones.

"They all bought their homes after the zoning bylaw was in place." he says. "They all bought their homes know­ing that.

"And I purchased property knowing w hat the zone w as," he says.

He says he doesn't see the project getting any smaller and believes he has already complied with the request to scale back.

"I've already reduced the density," he says He went from seeking 11 units to 10 and now to nine, where he believes the drop off should end. He says one of the units will be affordable.

Another concern of some residents is the scale of a pro­posed tower at the front of the structure, but Stapinski says there is a misconception about the tower's actual size. The three-story -high building will have a two-story tower, but neighbors such as Good say they would much rather see a porch or gazebo in the front of the building.

"It just catches the eye," Stapinski says about the tower that easily appears larg­er than actual size due to the v iewpoint offered by some of the plans.

He say s he tried to ease the concerns of residents who have mentioned they want to see a smaller tower. "Some­times people don't listen, sometimes they really don't look." he says.

According to Stapinski, having the longest standing business on the street helps him know what is suitable for an area he acknowledges has a residential nature.

" Park Street really wasn't a premium street to be on." when he moved into 66 Park St 25 years ago. he says. "Over the y ears the OK place became a great place."

He s.ivs the zoning bylaw would allow a restaurant or large jew elry store to enter the neighborhood at 69 Park St.

"Those aren't bad uses, but they're certainly intense uses," he say s "Constant

Rental problems

Apartments in Andover the state considers

“affordable” under its affordable housing for­

mulas seem to be no cheaper than apartments people

can find looking in the newspaper and paying what

the market will bear. At least, that’s the case with the

expected cost of apartments in three Chapter 40B

developments proposed for Andover. Some of the

proposed “affordable” rental units are plush - com­

plete with access to swimming pools and a gym. But

the concept of affordable housing isn't to create

cheaper poolside verandas. It’s to create homes and

apartments for regular people looking for a reason­

ably priced place to live.

This is a mammoth flaw in the state's anti-snob

zoning law. Because the Chapter 40B law can help

developers skirt local zoning restrictions, neighbor­

hoods are often opposed to developers' large propos­

als. While some people may be opposed to any

development, others have legitimate concerns about

how projects will significantly affect where they live.

But if anti-snob zoning isn't even providing rental

units at a price below the current market rate, there is

a more basic problem with Ch. 40B.

What can be done? In the short term, Andover's

zoning board should try to negotiate lower rents for

proposed units, as suggested by Citizens’ Housing

and Planning Association, a non-profit organization

that advocates for affordable housing. The Andover

Housing Partnership Committee - a group formed to

address affordable housing - might play a more

active role. In the longer term, the state must contin­

ue to address the housing issue and look at rewriting

the existing standards for what is classified as an

“affordable” rental unit. According to MassINC. a

nonpartisan public policy think tank, a recent poll

shows 74 percent of state residents see the cost of liv­

ing in Massachusetts as a problem. The top area list­

ed as an area in need of "major improvement” is the

affordability of homes.

This will come as little surprise to anyone, espe­

cially those who keep an eye on the Andover housing

market. From 1998 to 2002. the expense for a family

of four to live in the Essex County/Andover area rose

25 percent, in large part because of the rising costs of

homes, according to the Women's Educational and

Industrial Union. In that time, the union reports,

housing costs have climbed from $675 to $923 per

month.

When Andover's Vision 21 Committee asked the

public what it wanted to see in the future, many resi­

dents said they wanted to help keep people from dif­

ferent economic backgrounds in town. If Ch. 40B

isn't getting this done, officials need to fix it.

LETTERS The $3,000 question

Web question

Ill or good will for teacher sick days?

Last week's TownsmanWeb-site question was:

Teacher cuts could mean 82- minute study halls for some Andover High students all year long, next year. What should be done?

63 people voted.• 5, or 8 percent, said

“Nothing, the study halls are helpful for many students.’’

• 38, or 60 percent, said "Money should be shifted to keep more high school teach­ers. High school students are the only ones losing time with teachers. It's time to look out for our older stu­dents."

• 20, or 32 percent, said “The budget is tight. Intern­ships, work programs and other free solutions are the best bet.”

This week's question:Andover teachers on

average took 7.4 sick days during the 2001-02 school year. Does this suggest

there is a problem with the system?

• Yes. it would be a bur­den for me to take seven days off from work even if I were sick - and I work year-round.

• Yes, this is a money issue because taxpayers must pay for substitutes for absent teachers. If the union wants residents to take its pleas for more money seriously it has to curtail its use of such extravagant benefits.

• No, teaching is a physi­cally and emotionally exhausting job and we want the best people available and in good physical and mental health when they are teach­ing our kids.

• With the system, yes: but you can't blame that on teachers. School officials should not allow such con­tractual benefits or should crack down on sick-leave abusers.

Against adiosEditor. Townsman:

I write concerning the impact of the budget cuts and the seri­ous neglect of the Andover school system.

As students at Andover High School, my classmates and I have seen a disturbing decline of not only funding, but also gener­al compassion and concern by the taxpaying public toward Andover's educational system. The thought hit me the other day when a Spanish teacher received the infamous "pink slip" on his desk. After teaching in our school system for one year, this teacher did not have the seniori­ty needed to stay when budget cuts so dramatically affected staff. Despite his substantial level of experience, having spent 14 years of his life living in a Spanish-speaking country, where he taught many subjects in a different language, this incredible teacher was asked not to return. This teacher tried to share his knowledge of the lan­guage and culture with students of the town where he grew up. What a sad commentary on the priorities of the taxpaying pub­lic! It is amazing to me how eas­ily people can dismiss great teachers without batting an eye, and yet find the money some­where to build a new senior cen­ter or safety center.

In my years at Andover High School, and having spent all of my school years in Andover. I was fortunate to have had some extraordinary teachers, but the decline in the level of education is palpable. Less classroom instruction and larger class sizes are commonplace. The people of Andover must understand that for years their town has upheld an exceptional educa­tional program. The town needs to keep it that way.

The citizens of Andover need to understand that these are their successors. Students are the future. In a town as wealthy as Andover, it is a shame that peo­ple can be so stingy. In times of serious financial constraints, the schools' share of the budget should be the last to be cut. The strong educational program is what influences people to move to Andover and it is what makes Andover such a desirable town. How could Andover, with such a prestigious school system, let education become a last priority?

Meredith Hutchins3 Poplar Terrace

Imagine you are sitting at your high-school gradu­ation with about 390 other kids. Perhaps you're think­ing about the year ahead, or the year that just ended. About throwing your goofy mortarboard in the air. About not tripping when you go to grab your diplo­ma.

And then the principal, in the middle of his speech about selfless people who

have done amazing things, calls out your name. He makes you squeeze by 20 other kids in your row and walk across an arena filled with people to stand next to him. He asks you if you'll be the representative of the entire class of 2003, and you answer “yes."

Then he gives you $3,000 and tells you that you can do anything you want with it - but you have to come back in four years and tell the grad­uating class of 2007 exactly what you did with it.

That, people, was graduation day for Andover High School’s Greg Martin, who was as dumb­founded as everyone else at the Tsongas Arena when Principal Peter Anderson gave him the money. Anderson told only one teacher about the gift beforehand, and it took the entire audience by surprise.

“He had this whole speech about people who do great things, and then I hear my name," says Martin, "and I was like. Oh, wow - no pressure there.”

Anderson says the money comes from friends who wanted to do something for a student. Anderson selected Martin because “in the course of the speech I talked about five things about this graduating class, so I looked for a kid that I thought had all of those things," he said. Enter Martin. Adults fretting that the sky is falling - and that kids are too busy watching The Anna Nicole Show to notice - can take heart. Anderson says the members of the 2003 graduating class, such as Martin:

• have a clear sense of personal values;• possess a strong belief in the importance of

family;• give of themselves;• show concern for others in the school; and• take action that requires giving themselves

permission to succeed or fail."I have been more enthusiastic about this gen­

eration than I have been about my own, and it's because of these five things," says Anderson.

That last of the five - giving oneself permis­sion to succeed or fail - is why Anderson says Martin has complete freedom to use the cash as he sees fit," I was giving it to him as the agent for his class. Now. if he wants to go to Foxwoods and 'invest it' I guess he could too,” says Ander­son. "I think to put any restrictions on it would

Neil Fater

refute the part of giving yourself permission to succeed or fail.”

Sure, Anderson hopes the money will be used for a charitable activity in the name of the class. He laughs about Martin spending the money on four years of McDonald's burgers.

"I'd like to think he'd invest the $3,000 in the stock market, make some money and give it to something like cancer research, but I have no idea," says Anderson. “I ll be intrigued four years from now to find out like everyone else. It’s sort of like the time capsule waiting to open.”

Martin has already considered several options for what to do with the money.

He says his best friend, a second-generation Chinese-American, told him about an overseas program he's thought about supporting. “For $50 you can sponsor a child who otherwise wouldn't get an education," says Martin. He might also ask some of Andover's big businesses to match the $3,000 and create a new scholarship.

“I really don't want to stand up there in four years and say I lost the money on some stock that didn't do so well," says Martin. Anderson laughed with Martin when he retold the story of an Illinois kid who did lose all the money in the stock market, when Anderson was principal there. That took the pressure off, says Martin.

Anderson plans to give money to an Andover graduate each year. “If I do it long enough, maybe I will run into somebody who will go to McDonald’s and spend it all,” he laughs.

But Anderson doesn’t worry about that some­one being Martin. He has faith in the kid. Heck, he has faith in the kid's generation.

He notes Martin wasn't the valedictorian, but was a dilligent student. He won't get a full ride to college because he’s a athletic superstar, but he was a mainstay of the lacrosse team. He over­came personal challenges, including an illness, says Anderson, and Martin understands the importance of family. He started a program to help boys at the high school. Martin says the idea was to give younger kids who felt uncomfortable at the school someone older to say “Hi" to in the halls, someone who could show them the ropes, without giving them a rope bum.

“When he commits to something, he does it with as much energy as he can muster," says Anderson. "He’s a very modest kid and a very humble kid. In my mind, he was one of the right choices (to give the cash to).”

Martin, one of several kids Anderson could have given the money to, is considering exactly what kind of good he can do in the world with $3,000.

Who knows? When the time capsule opens, Anderson's investment just may be the best $3,000 investment of the 2003. Have a little faith.

There were times in the past when we felt our voices too weak and the United States too distant from countries like Cam­bodia, Rwanda, Romania and the former Soviet Union to stop dic­tators and fascists from mas­sacring innocents. We could only turn the pages of our daily paper in silent anger.

President George Bush recently took military action to stop Saddam Hussein in his tracks, but public support was divided as to the necessity of inflicting more damage on a suf­fering nation. Dictators and per­petrators of crimes against humanity, however, may soon be reminded that there is another consequence of their path of absolute and reckless power - a public trial in a U.S. court. Although there have been notable precedents, such as the trial of Slobodan Milosevic and the sentencing of former Nazi Gestapo guards, eyes will be on a lawsuit against the former leader of the People's Republic of China, Jiang Zemin, in a federal district court in Chicago on charges of genocide and other crimes against humanity.

unprecedented. No Chinese nationals at home or abroad have ever dared to hold top Commu­nist Party officials legally accountable for crimes they have committed. The PRC has been known to have a long arm. and fear of retaliation has kept silent all but the most determined indi­viduals.

This lawsuit may bring about positive changes in China. The publicity will discourage other Chinese officials from commit­ting human-rights atrocities.

Knowing that one day they may be held accountable, they will be more restrained in their crack­downs when carry ing out “orders from above.' If this case goes foreword, more lawsuits against other corrupt party officials in China and against dictators of other repressive regimes may soon follow, pax ing the way for a public review of repressive regimes where no real checks and balances exist.

Many foreign reporters in China will be happy to see a pub­lic lawsuit brought against Jiang. He has appeared five years in a row on the list of "Ten Worst Enemies of the Press" published by the Committee to Protect Journalists. In a single year, China imprisoned 22 reporters and retained its title as “the world's leading jailor of journal­ists" Also, China has attempted to railroad the implementation of Article 23 in Hong Kong, an "anti-subversion" law that would subject Hong Kong, which has a long history of freedom of expression, to the same choke- hold restrictions as the mainland.

This case against Jiang will be good news to persecuted groups such as Tibetans, Christians, pro­ponents of democracy and Falun Gong practitioners. Jiang consid­ers practitioners of Falun Gong, a spiritual meditation practice once actively promoted by the government for its health bene­fits, to be the most dangerous public enemies, even though they are primarily women and the elderly. According to the Falun Dafa Information Center, Jiang was responsible for the deaths of more than 700 practi­tioners, most of whom were tor­tured to death while in custody.

Already, the effects of this lawsuit can be felt. Reportedly,

after learning about the case, a terrified Jiang repeatedly pres­sured the U.S. government to drop this lawsuit. The Chinese ambassador sent letters to each of the 535 offices in the House and Senate, blasting it. Mean­while. the Bush administration wrote an amicus curiae brief to the court asking that the lawsuit be dismissed due to diplomatic concerns.

More than three dozen mem­bers of Congress responded with an amicus curiae brief urging the continuation of this lawsuit against Jiang. Citing interests in human rights and the separation of justice and diplomacy, the bipartisan congressional group criticized the Bush administra­tion for placing the interests of the PRC before the principles of the United States.

Of the 39 U.S. Congressmen who signed this amicus brief, five are from Massachusetts - Stephen Lynch, James McGov­ern, Barney Frank. Richard Neal, and Edward Markey. From the Massachusetts Statehouse. Rep­resentatives Martin Walsh and Mark Carron also initiated a "Dear colleague" letter to the state Congressional delegation in support of this lawsuit.

The genocide case against Jiang is more than a simple com­plaint. It is a nonviolent way to fully expose the crimes of the defendant and. by holding him publicly accountable, empha­sizes the vital importance of human nghts and the rule of law to all repressive, totalitarian regimes. It is setting a precedent for all humanity, while testing and re-establishing the power behind the principles upon which the United States and all democ­racies are founded - liberty and justice for all.

Planning to decide on one of two options POLICE LOG

land Street residents because itlooks nicer.

The board will review the waivers needed for both plans, but also look at the matter of land preservation and appear­ance versus safety.

Planning Director Steve Colyer has questioned why any­one would want to exacerbate a situation where fire trucks would need to use driveways to back up and exit an area.

"Why just keep building on bad planning?" he asked after a meeting last week.

But residents of Marland Street told the Planning Board they can live with the current exit methods for large trucks on their street if it means they can preserve more open space. The new plan - the one that would not allow a turn-around area for trucks - would donate two acres of land to the Andover Conser­vation Commission.

"The fire truck comes up the hill and back down," said Tim McCarron, of 33 Marland St. "Come and see. It's a very cre­ative process.”

Board members said they

were surprised to see a second set of plans come before them at this stage in the game, but listened to the residents and members of the development team. On Tuesday, June 24, the board will pick a plan it sup­ports and then resume the pub­lic hearing.

Two optionsSpeicher said if the cul-de-

sac option is selected, “it’s going to be really safe, but it’s going to be really ugly."

What the Planning Board must decide now is if a cul-de- sac is necessary for public safe­ty, or if preserving open space and the appearance of Marland Street is of more importance.

“The developer would pre­fer to build the second plan,” Speicher said. "We think it will look better. You’re not clearing a lot of trees. You're not putting in a massive amount of pave­ment."

Grifoni said the residents would “rather see less than more (development).”

According to Grifoni, the plan without a cul-de-sac is the result of neighborhood input. He said from the start he has

wanted to do limited construc­tion to the area and is trying to make whomever he can happy. Grifoni said he is aware the fire, police and public works depart­ments are in favor of having the cul-de-sac. He said he tried meeting their concerns.

“That’s when it kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger." Grifoni said about the plans for his development. And that made the plan less pleasing to the res­

idents. “At this point we’re just trying to please whomever.”

“The Planning Board has a tough job. They have a lot of things to consider,” said Speich­er. “I guess it would be easier if we said here’s one plan. It’s ugly, but it meets all of your regulations so you have to approve it.”

Both plans before the board call for a number of waivers.

TOWN TALK

Soon, another precinct heard from

State representative Barry Finegold of Andover and his wife, Amy, have some very big (and very obvious) news. They are expecting their first child this summer. The due date is Aug. 26. The ultrasound indicated the baby is most likely a girl, said Barry Finegold,

photo by tim jean but they’re not stocking Expecting: Barry and Amy up on things pink and Finegold. frilly just yet. “We’re

pretty sure, but you never know until the baby comes," he said. Whatever gender, the cou­ple is thrilled with the pending arrival of the newcomer to their home on Stirling Woods, off Haverhill Street.

The Finegolds were joined at last Friday’s police department ball by the baby-to-be’s great-grandparents. Meyer and Marian Shapiro sat with their grandson and were thrilled to tell passers- by that they just celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary.

Also from the ball...Traffic trials

Sick of the traffic around town during those peak commuter times? Well, it’s no wonder, as there is plenty of it.

Police Chief Brian J. Pattullo told the crowd at the police department’s ball that Andover ranks fifth in the state when it comes to “destination towns,” towns where people come to work. The location of two major highways - Interstates 93 and 495 - in town means the local police department handles some 65,000 residents and commuters on any given work day.

“Everyone thinks not much happens in our small town, but we just keep a low profile," he said.

Officer Black REMEMBERED

He’s the only Andover police officer killed in the line of duty and Andover police remember him with the Robert T. Black Memor­ial Award given to the top cop every year.

So, who was Officer Black and how did he die? Town records on file at the Historical Society say he was just 28 when the downtown tragedy struck on Dec. 4,1925. Officer Black wasstanding on Main Street, photo by tim jean

near Elm Square, when The Officer Robert T. Black he got a call in a nearby Memorial Award was given this phone booth. He was year to Sgt. John Pathiakis.told a bank had just been ..................................................................robbed in Lawrence. He was warned to be on the lookout for the Model T getaway car as it was headed to Andover. Soon after that call. Officer Black noticed a car with its left front brake smoking on Main Street. He stopped the car and a man jumped out.

Officer Black chased him into a nearby alley when the man turned and shot the officer, point blank.

“It was a Model T, that's all we know," Lt. William MacKen­zie said of the incident. “The investigation was never complet­ed."

Town records on Officer Black's death include a line that says “murderer escaped."

The murderer escaped, but the Officer Black tragedy will never be forgotten.

Belted by letter

Rookie state representative Barbara L’ltalien, who represents a brand new district that includes some of Andover, was intro­duced to the crowd. She talked about being busy with her vote to let police pull over people who are not wearing seat belts. Then - apparently referring to a letter to the editor from a resi­dent who disagreed with her vote - she announced she “took a hit in the Townsman” on the issue, before moving on to salute the local police force. “It is great to be here," she said, noting that her dad was an FBI agent for 30 years.

Recruits and retirees dance the night away in tradition from '40s

ONE OF THE OLDEST balls O on the Andover social O scene, where the men

and women in blue put aside their badges and pistols to hit the dance floor for a good cause.

The Andover Policeman's Ball was held last Fri­day night at Andover Country Club. A great mix of police retirees and new recruits, and a strong con­tingent of com­munity support­ers, were among the 350 people who attended.Proceeds benefit the Andover Police Relief

..................................... Association.It’s an event

that dates back to the 1940s, according to Lt. William MacKenzie, who has organized the party for the past few years.

“Back then, the guys wore their uni­forms and the ladies wore gowns,’’ he said.

The dress may be more casual these days, but the celebration continues to be near and dear to local cops, because it benefits their own. When an Andover police officer gets hurt on the job, it’s the Andover Police Relief Association that often steps in to help pay for unex­pected costs. Proceeds from the ball's $30-per-person ticket go to the associa­tion, which is regulated by a state insur­ance commissioner.

“It’s all about taking care of people... At left, Jennie Murnane and Andrew Cornell. At right, Andrew's parents, Nancy and Doug Cornell,

sometimes benefits expire or someone needs help with medication costs,”MacKenzie said. “That’s where we come in.”

Police officers are not the only ones to hit the ball's dance floor, however.The> are joined by residents and family members, such as the Cornells of Andover.

“We’re here to show our support for our son and the Andover Police Depart­ment," said Nancy Cornell, who was dancing with her husband. Doug.

Their son, Andrew Cornell, is the APD's youngest recruit, hired just two years ago. He attended with his girl­friend, Jennie Murnane, also of Andover.

On the opposite end of the police spectrum was a table filled with several retirees of the APD. Many worked in the police department for more than 30 years. Collectively, they represented more than 193 years of service to the town, MacKenzie said. They included Lloyd Belbin, Joseph Hastings, Jake Jacobson, George Miller, Frank Froburg, Joe Ouellette and Joe Bern­hardt.

Former Andover Police Chief David Nicol was remembered warmly by the crowd. He died earlier this year. He joined the force in 1937 and worked up the ranks to police chief, serving from 1953 to 1980.

Salutes were also plentiful for three current police officers honored for the good job that they do. Sgt. John Pathi-

Bunny and Bill Downs are among the couples sharing a dance at the Policeman's Ball.

akis received the Officer Robert T. Black Memorial Award, named in honor of Andover’s only police officer killed in the line of duty. The police force votes for the recipient every year.

Known as "johnny-on-the-spot' around the police station. Pathiakis senes as training supervisor and works closely with new recruits.

“I once saw him in his pajamas in the office. He’s always working." MacKenzie said.

Pathiakis didn't deny his work ethic, as he thanked his wife, Nancy, at the podium when

he got the award from Chief Brian Pattullo."I want to thank my wife for putting up with

me. She sees me seldom." he said, which prompted MacKenzie to joke, "as long as there’s a (payicheck every Wednesday, she’s fine.”

Next up for awards were Sgt. Rick Edson and Officer James Haggerty, who received Meritorious Lifesaving Medals. They respond­ed to a car fire onYork Street last Feb­ruary and pulled an unconscious man to safety.

All computers in the lab automatical­ly open up to the page he designed. He also created the "Senior High­light" video, showcasing the senior class trip, the prom and other memo­rable events.

Nelson's interests don’t end with computers and technology. He orga­nized the Andover Film Festival, held at Old Town Hall, where stu­dents from Andover or from nearby colleges submitted their own films. This year, the event was canceled due to lack of interest, but in the past, there have been too many entries to accommodate. “Last year, we had 20 entries, and we had to cut it down, to keep it under two hours," Nelson said. He estimates that several hun­dred people were in attendance.

He said teacher Joe Spanos deserves credit for inspiring him, not only in his TV production class, but also by sponsoring numerous inde­pendent studies in film-making and

If Nelson changes his mind about film-making, he might gain plenty of material this summer. This past Tuesday he started out on a two- month, cross-country road trip with fellow graduates Ian Wittenber and Scott Chamberlin.

They will be driving a 1993 Dodge Caravan through Chicago. Denver, stopping at Arches National Park. Zion National Park, and the Grand Canyon, with hopes that the van won’t break down. They 'll finish by driving through Las Vegas. Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

Chief Pattullo said the good-sized crowd was indicative of the police support around town and “it was great to see."

"The 75 people who work in the building are the best people to have to protect the town," he said "I'm the envy of the Merrimack Valley police chiefs because I have such a great group of people .”

THE TOWNSMAN, JUNE 19, 2003 11

TOWN TALK

Soon, another precinct heard from

State representative Barry Finegold of Andover and his wife, Amy, have some very big (and very obvious) news. They are expecting their first child this summer. The due date is Aug. 26. The ultrasound indicated the baby is most likely a girl, said Barry Finegold,

photo by tim jean bm they’re not stocking Expecting: Barry and Amy up on things pink and Finegold. frilly just yet. “We’re

pretty sure, but you never know until the baby comes,” he said. Whatever gender, the cou­ple is thrilled with the pending arrival of the newcomer to their home on Stirling Woods, off Haverhill Street.

The Finegolds were joined at last Friday’s police department ball by the baby-to-be’s great-grandparents. Meyer and Marian Shapiro sat with their grandson and were thrilled to tell passers- by that they just celebrated their 62nd wedding anniversary.

Also from the ball...Traffic trials

Sick of the traffic around town during those peak commuter times'1 Well, it’s no wonder, as there is plenty of it.

Police Chief Brian J. Pattullo told the crowd at the police department's ball that Andover ranks fifth in the state when it comes to "destination towns,” towns where people come to work. The location of two major highways - Interstates 93 and 495 - in town means the local police department handles some 65,000 residents and commuters on any given work day.

“Everyone thinks not much happens in our small town, but we just keep a low profile,” he said.

Officer Black

REMEMBERED

He's the only Andover police officer killed in the line of duty and Andover police remember him with the Robert T. Black Memor­ial Award given to the top cop every year.

So, who was Officer Black and how did he die? Town records on file at the Historical Society say he was just 28 when the downtown tragedy struck on Dec. 4.1925. Officer Black was standing on Main Street,near Elm Square, when The Officer Robert T. Black he got a call in a nearby Memorial Award was given this phone booth. He was year to Sgt. John Pathiakis.

told a bank had just been ...................................................................robbed in Lawrence. He was warned to be on the lookout for the Model T getaway car as it was headed to Andover. Soon after that call. Officer Black noticed a car with its left front brake smoking on Main Street. He stopped the car and a man jumped out.

Officer Black chased him into a nearby alley when the man turned and shot the officer, point blank.

"It was a Model T. that's all we know," Lt. William Macken­zie said of the incident. "The investigation was never complet­ed.”

Town records on Officer Black's death include a line that says “murderer escaped.”

The murderer escaped, but the Officer Black tragedy will never be forgotten.

Belted by letter

Rookie state representative Barbara L’ltalien, who represents a brand new district that includes some of Andover, was intro­duced to the crowd. She talked about being busy with her vote to let police pull over people who are not wearing seat belts. Then - apparently referring to a letter to the editor from a resi­dent who disagreed with her vote - she announced she “took a hit in the Townsman” on the issue, before moving on to salute the local police force. “It is great to be here,” she said, noting that her dad was an FBI agent for 30 years.

Recruits and retirees dance the night away in tradition from '40s

Son the Andover social

scene, where the men and women in blue put aside their badges and pistols to hit the dance floor

for a good cause.The Andover

Policeman's Ball was held last Fri­day night at Andover Country Club. A great mix of police retirees and new recruits, and a strong con­tingent of com­munity support­ers, were among the 350 people who attended. Proceeds benefit the Andover Police Relief Association.

It’s an event that dates back to the 1940s, according to Lt. William Mackenzie, who has organized the party for the past few years.

“Back then, the guys wore their uni­forms and the ladies wore gowns,” he said.

The dress may be more casual these days, but the celebration continues to be near and dear to local cops, because it benefits their own. When an Andover police officer gets hurt on the job, it’s the Andover Police Relief Association that often steps in to help pay for unex­pected costs. Proceeds from the ball's $30-per-person ticket go to the associa­tion, which is regulated by a state insur­ance commissioner.

“It’s all about taking care of people... sometimes benefits expire or someone needs help with medication costs,” Mackenzie said. "That’s where we come in.”

Police officers are not the only ones to hit the ball’s dance floor, however. They are joined by residents and family members, such as the Cornells of Andover.

“We’re here to show our support for our son and the Andover Police Depart­ment,” said Nancy Cornell, who was dancing with her husband, Doug.

Their son, Andrew Cornell, is the APD’s youngest recruit, hired just two years ago. He attended with his girl­friend, Jennie Murnane, also of Andover.

On the opposite end of the police spectrum was a table filled with several retirees of the APD. Many worked in the police department for more than 30 years. Collectively, they represented more than 193 years of service to the town, Mackenzie said. They included Lloyd Belbin, Joseph Hastings, Jake Jacobson, George Miller. Frank Froburg, Joe Ouellette and Joe Bern­hardt.

Former Andover Police Chief David Nicol was remembered warmly by the crowd. He died earlier this year. He joined the force in 1937 and worked up the ranks to police chief, serving from 1953 to 1980.

Salutes were also plentiful for three current police officers honored for the good job that they do. Sgt. John Pathi-

Known as “johnny-on-the-spot" around the police station. Pathiakis serves as training supervisor and works closely with new recruits.

“I once saw him in his pajamas in the office. He's always working." Mackenzie said.

Pathiakis didn't deny his work ethic, as he thanked his wife, Nancy, at the podium when

he got the award from Chief Brian Pattullo.“I want to thank my wife for putting up with

me. She sees me seldom." he said, which prompted Mackenzie to joke, "as long as there’s a (pay (check every Wednesday, she's fine."

Next up for awards were Sgt. Rick Edson and Officer James Haggerty, who received Mentorious Lifesav ing Medals They respond­ed to a car fire onYork Street last Feb­ruary and pulled an unconscious man to safety.

of Andover High School's graduat­ing class of 2003, he said. "There are

All computers in the lab automatical­ly open up to the page he designed. He also created the “Senior High­light" video, showcasing the senior class trip, the prom and other memo­rable events.

Nelson's interests don't end with computers and technology. He orga­nized the Andover Film Festival, held at Old Town Hall, where stu­dents from Andover or from nearby colleges submitted their own films. This year, the event was canceled due to lack of interest, but in the past, there have been too many entries to accommodate. “Last year, we had 20 entries, and we had to cut it down, to keep it under two hours," Nelson said. He estimates that several hun­dred people were in attendance.

He said teacher Joe Spanos deserves credit for inspiring him, not only in his TV production class, but also by sponsoring numerous inde­pendent studies in film-making and

editing.Nelson will be attending Bates

College in Maine this fall, to study liberal arts. Why not film ’ "If I study film. I'm worried that I won t eat. he said. He does plan to do plenty of skiing, and may join the lacrosse team.

If Nelson changes his mind about film-making, he might gain plenty of material this summer. This past Tuesday he started out on a two- month. cross-country road trip with fellow graduates Ian Wittenber and Scott Chamberlin.

They will be driving a 1993 Dodge Caravan through Chicago, Denver, stopping at Arches National Park. Zion National Park, and the Grand Canyon, with hopes that the van won't break down. They ’ll finish by driving through Las Vegas. Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

The Scouts were also able to investigate the Hiddensee, a corvette with a multi-national history. It was built in the former USSR for East Germany, then served the reunified German Navy. It was then transferred to the US Navy and used for testing and research before being put on display at Bat­tleship Cove.

according to organizers.It was a packed house Monday night at Glory

on Essex Street as many Andover women treated themselves to the perfect girls' night out that included food and drinks, capped off with a fash­ion show featuring apparel from Native Sun. also located on Essex Street. A group home on Juniper Road in Andover was the benefactor of this fash­ion show, which was the third show the two neighboring businesses have teamed up to create.

Previously, they have helped domestic abuse victims who use programs run by the YWCA.

Native Sun manager Ellie Fischbein said more than $3,000 was raised for the group home, where the son of one of her best customers lives.

Jake Scileppi. son of Olivia Scileppi of Long­wood Drive, is one of four young men living at 29 Juniper Road.

Olix ia Scileppi picked up the proceeds Tues­day and plans to use the money lor household items. She was truly touched by the fashion-show attendance and the outpouring of support she has received since her son's home was profiled in the Townsman last week.

"Incredible." she said. "People have been call­ing. wanting to donate money and items."

and assisted living community. 15 Stevens St., honored its many volunteers recently by holding its annual volunteer banquet, where volunteers of all ages were treated to a buffet-style dinner and given a gift of appre­ciation by Marland's social pro­gram director. Tracey Meech.

Marland Place has more than 50 volunteers age 10 and older. Most of Marland's volunteers come from Andover, but there are many who come from sur­rounding towns. Volunteering at Marland has many different meanings - many volunteer by visiting residents, helping out with activities and special events, doing crafts and running the country store.

Marland even has two "four­legged" volunteers, according to Meech. Two very friendly gold­en retrievers visit residents and guests on a regular basis.

To volunteer, even for as little as one hour a month, call 978- 475-4225.

Marija, which is narrated by actress Olyntpia Dukakis and co-produced by feminist writer and activist Starhawk, provides a lens into the world of Marija Gimbutas, who organizers say revolutionized the thinking about the origins of Western civ­ilization.

Gimbutas discovered, through excavations in Neolithic Europe, a culture which was peaceful and egalitarian and which had arich spiritual tradition based on life-affirm­ing goddess images.Marija has footage from the excava­tion sites, which pro­vides viewers with the living landscapes in which Gimbutas' discoveries were made. The film also contains interviews and archival materials, interspersed with on-location photography and still photographs.

Read is best known for her Women and Spirituality film trilogy (Goddess Remembered, The Burning Times, and Full Circle), which she directed, edit­ed, and co-produced with the National Film Board of Canada.

The talk and film are free and open to the public. No pre-regis­tration is required.

A reception with Read will follow her talk.

sounded at noon Monday for the public schools.

The maple tree at the comer of Elm and High streets, which was uprooted last week by the storm, was cut down Tuesday morning.

The electric lights were out Tuesday afternoon for an hour or two. The high-wind was the cause of this. The difficulty was quickly remedied.

A picture of F.O. Baldwin, former principal of Punchard, was presented to the school by the class of 2003 at the gradua­tion yesterday. It was painted by George Porter of Lawrence who has lately returned from Paris where he has been study ing. The painting is a fine likeness.

What has been known for some time by those on the inside, is made public today in the announcement that those who control the Lawrence Gas Company have purchased the stock of the Andover electric company, and the two will henceforth be under the same management.

Tony Covino. West Middle School's retiring assistant principal, is considering a return to the classroom.

Superintendent Claudia Bach for having taught 28 stu­dent teachers during her time in Andover. Baeh esti­mated Guerin had taught 860 students in her career. “It’s very nice to have touched so many lives in some way," she says.

Guerin saw what is now the Doherty Middle School go through two name changes while she was a teacher

at the school during her early years in Andover. When she started here, the school building on Bartlet Street was called Central Elementary . The name was changed to Doherty Elementary while she was there.

Since then, the downtown school has been called East Junior High. Doherty Junior High and now Doher­ty Middle School.

Slaying the school yearWood Hill students celebrate the end of the year with a Medieval Fair

By Ben Heilmanfter his many YEARS as West Middle School's assistant principal Tony Covino has a radical idea for his retirement - to go back to teaching.

The long-time assistant principal started out his edu­cation career in the classroom teaching history, and says he just might return. "Maybe. 1 wouldn't mind doing that." he says.

Covino sav s he enjoyed being in the classroom. He also enjoyed being assistant principal. "All that is. is a bigger classroom." he says. “It's been a great ride."

Covino is one of several longtime teachers and administrators who will retire this year.

He says he will enjoy the extra time with his family and grandchildren. The biggest adjustment he will make is not waking up at 5:30 a.m.

"I understand that takes some time." he says.

By Ben HeilmanUMMER ON THEIR MINDS,Wood Hill students had no problem getting into the

spirit for their Medieval Fair lastFriday. The fair was an end-of- the-year cultural event sponsored by the Wood Hill Parent Adviso­ry Council, though the kids were too busy having fun to notice such details.

Wood Hill's gymnasium was transformed into a carnival with three large, inflatable attrac­tions. A castle-shaped moon- walk, a bungee cord game and a “Merlin" ball toss were the big attractions. Students also squared off wearing large, padded suits of "armor" and brandishing padded bats.

The bungee game was the favorite of many students. They tied themselves to a bungee cord and ran as far as they could on an inflatable track. The bungee cord would stretch to its limit, and then yank the stu­dents' small, delighted bodies off their feet, sending the kids

Punchard class of ’54 making reunion plans

Punchard High School class of 1954 is now making plans for its 5()th reunion to be held Satur­day. June 19. 2004. Other peo­ple who would have graduated with this class are also welcome, organizers said. For more infor­mation. contact Joyce A. (Williams) Kater at 978-681- 9932, or Judy (Colmer) Avery at [email protected].

made a good show of fending off her friend Lauren Burry' in the cushioned knight jousting game. Emily got a little help from a teacher who helped hold her up because of the heavy armor. Emily landed a few good whacks at Lauren's heavily padded head before being top­pled. “It s the size of me,” exclaimed Emily about her suit, in a post-game wrap-up. Both girls are eighth-graders.

Some real fencing was going on in an equipment room near the gym. Rustin Zarkar and Jon Traub. both eighth-graders, are neighbors and take fencing classes through the Department of Community Services. “We fence after school, most of the time in my back yard." said Rustin. They did demonstra­tions and taught basic fencing technique to students who wanted to learn.

An eight-hole mini-golf course, built by sixth-graders, featured a rising and lowering drawbridge, medieval maiden, a catapult and a dragon.

Threatening rain clouds drove the fair indoors, which shot down a student-built tre- buchet demonstration, but did­n't dampen spirits. The tre- buchet was an intricate medieval machine that flung rocks at castles during sieges.

The students' model, more than five feet tall, flings soft- balls more than 100 feet. It is teacher Gordon Goyette’s inten­tion to add another 50 feet to the distance, which might be possible by tomorrow. Friday, the last day of school.

According to organizers, "Jesse, an outstanding student, exemplifies a true love of learn­ing and a heartfelt care for her community. She led a program called Book Worms throughout her high-school career, provid­ing a reading program for chil­dren at a battered women’s shelter. She also tutored at the high school, was the co-chair of Students against Destructive Decisions, and has taken over her mother’s old-time photo business at Canobie Lake Park.’’

AHS Principal Peter Anderson summed up Jesse’s nature, saying, “Jesse is a good example of someone who does noble work without seeking recognition. That is Jesse’s hall­mark.”

Fred Fitzgerald. AFE founder, and Jim McCon­aughy. president of AFE. pre­sented Szafarz with a dictionary along with the scholarship. Fitzgerald remarked. "A dictio­nary is the repository of human learning. We are glad to honor you with this small token of our admiration.”

He urged Szafarz to continue her determination to do the best that she can on every task and to maintain internal satisfaction in what she has done.

The daughter of Cort and Reenie Szafarz, she will attend Connecticut College this fall with an eye toward a career in teaching or medicine. Organiz­ers said, “She will continue her

love of learning so apparent in her animated description of her coursework in anatomy, as well as her eagerness to enroll in a wide variety of courses at col­lege.”

The Andover Fund for Edu­cation is a non-profit organiza­tion dedicated to enriching and supporting Andover’s public schools. The award is in honor of the group’s founder, Fred Fitzgerald.

Tony Covino. West Middle School's retiring assistant principal, is considering a return to the classroom.

Superintendent Claudia Bach for having taught 28 stu­dent teachers during her time in Andover. Bach esti­mated Guerin had taught 860 students in her career. "It's very nice to have touched so many lives in some way,” she says.

Guerin saw what is now the Doherty Middle School go through two name changes while she was a teacher

at the school during her early years in Andover. When she started here, the school building on Bartlet Street was called Central Elementary'. The name was changed to Doherty Elementary while she was there.

Since then, the downtown school has been called East Junior High, Doherty Junior High and now Doher­ty Middle School.

Slaying the school yearWood Hill students celebrate the end of the year with a Medieval Fair

By Ben Heilmanfter his many years as West Middle School’s assistant principal Tony Covino has a radical idea for his retirement - to go back to teaching.

The long-time assistant principal started out his edu­cation career in the classroom teaching history, and says he just might return. "Maybe. 1 wouldn't mind doing that." he says.

Covino says he enjoyed being in the classroom. He also enjoyed being assistant principal. “All that is, is a bigger classroom." he says. “It's been a great ride.”

Cosino is one of several longtime teachers and administrators who will retire this year.

He says he will enjoy the extra time with his family and grandchildren. The biggest adjustment he will make is not waking up at 5:30 a.m.

“I understand that takes some time,” he says.

Jim Sutton, director of Memorial Hall Library, Is plugged into a good “book.” The library Is loaning mp3 books and players.

Road trip ‘reading’Memorial Hall’s digital booksBy Kyle McCauleyTownsman intern

With the vacation season on the horizon, many trav­elers will need something - music, or a book on tape, for instance - to pass the time between destinations. Memorial Hall Library now offers a new alternative for its dig­

ital-age patrons: books in mp3 format.The first library to offer such a service in Massachusetts,

Memorial Hall provides about 124 titles in various genres including mysteries, fiction, biographies and classic children's stories. For many steeped in fast-paced technology, the conve­nience of instantly accessing portions of the book will make books on tape obsolete - and time spent traveling a little more bearable.

Patrons with their own mp3 players can load the books.Memorial Hall also offers cassette adapters to residents, and a Link-it device, which broadcasts the book over an FM radio, so that several people can enjoy the readings during a car trip.

"People really like them, they 're grateful for the technology," says Gerry Deyermond, librarian.

She says the advantages of mp3 players lie in their sturdiness. Unlike books on CD, the audio doesn't skip, because there are no moving parts or laser readers in the players. Also, their con­venient size makes them ideal for nearly any travel situation, work-out session, or day on the beach. A player is about the size of a pack of playing cards.

The quality of the audio is also more clear, as books on tape often wear down and books on CD can get scratched.

Currently, the library gets two to three requests daily for use of its 30 Otis mp3 players, which can be borrowed for up to three weeks at a time. The library has recently upgraded the memory on two of its players to accommodate lengthier titles, which would normally require multiple downloads.

Welcome to summerSummer season kicking off in spite of the weatherBy Judy Wakefield

The hot weather may not have arrived just yet, but hot fun has indeed arrived in town.

Summer may officially arrive Saturday, June 21, but the town’s summer season kicks off a day earlier with school ending tomorrow, June 20. The town’s recreation department is ready and wait­ing for the onslaught of enter­tainment-seekers.

Pomps Pond is now open and some new playground equipment was installed earli­er this week. The whopping 75-percent hike for a pond parking sticker has not deterred pond-goers, who are forking over the $60 fee and $5 second-car fee with no complaints, according to the Department of Community Services. Last summer, the fee was $35 and S5 for the second car. Sticker sales are keeping pace with last year’s sales.

One of the reasons may be because, for the first time,DCS had a booth at last week­end's Bazaar Days event downtown. Many residents got stickers there and also signed up for summer pro­grams. according to Vem Loschi of DCS.

Residents can get stickers at the DCS office. Senior citizens pay $25 for a sticker.

Pomps Pond hours are noon to 7 p.m. through Aug. 2. From Aug. 3 to 17, the hours are noon to 6 p.m. The Pond View

Summer officially begins Saturday, but Andy Comeau has a head start paddling across Pomps Pond on Tuesday afternoon under sunny skies. Kayaks are available to rent at the pond.

concession stand will also be open at noon throughout the summer, and will close an hour before the pond does. Kayaks, canoes and sailboats are available to rent.

Numerous day camps for kids of all ages are being run by DCS and all of them start Monday. June 30. For more informa­tion, stop by the DCS office in Town Offices at 36 Bartlet St.

Fourth of July will be celebrated as usual, with the Pancake Breakfast in the Park served by selectmen from 8 to 11 a.m. The cost is $4 per person, up $1 from last year. The Horribles Parade lines up at 9 a.m. and the event starts at 9:30 a.m. in the parking lot at Town Offices near the Park. Budget cuts canceled the moonwalk this year, but plenty of games for kids will take place in the Park from 10:30 a.m. to noon.

The Andover Community Skate Park, located behind West Middle School, will be opening soon. It was supposed to open last Saturday but it needs a paint job. which had- n't been done as of Townsman presstime this week. When the skate park does open, the hours will be noon to dusk every dav but

Monday, when it is closed. The cost is S35 for a season pass per kid, with a $100 max­imum for families. Day-skaters pay $5 per visit. The park is available for birthday - party rentals on Sundays only. Skateboard­ing lessons will be held on Tuesday. Thurs­day and Saturday mornings. For more infor­mation, visit the park and talk to an Andover Youth Services staffer.

The free summer concert series in the Park begins July 9. All concerts are held on Wednesday evenings beginning at 6. The Park is located at the comer of Chestnut and Bartlet streets. If it rains, concerts will be held Thursdays, rain or shine. It it rains on the rain date, the concerts w ill move indoors to the nearby Memorial Auditorium at Doherty Middle School.

that can be dev oured in a day. Hot new mysteries.

The latest tell-all autobiogra­phies. These are the staples of summer for many looking to take a break.

"People have a lot more time to read. The tastes change a lot more to lighter reading,” says Andover Book Store assistant manager Julie Carlson.

Like most people interested in reading, Carlson has a num­ber of novels to recommend to summer readers.

The No. 1 book she is sug­gesting for readers is The Secret Life of Bees, by Sue Monk Kid. The book is set in the South in the 1960s, where a 14-year-old who lost her mother struggles to find her history. "It’s a book that makes you feel good. There are few of those,” says Carlson. “We suggest that to anyone.”

Memorial Hall Library book club member Hannah Heisetz recommends The Story Behind The Painting, by Leo Rosten. The book gives stories behind the great masters’ paintings, and details about their lives. Heisetz says the art and poetry that people leave behind is what matters. "The computer we bought last year is out of date. These things are priceless. Words are priceless," she says.

When Heisetz. 79. began to lose the sight in one of her eyes she was afraid she might not be able to read anymore. She con­sidered books on tape. “It’s not the same," she says. When she reads she can stop and look up a word, underline a sentence, or just think about what she just

chases a secret hinted at in Da Vinci's paintings and protected b\ a secret society since the day s of Christ. Carlson say s the book is popular at her bookstore

as well.Hillary Clinton’s Living His­

tory is also in demand and on order at the bookstore.

The Devil Wears PraJa by Lauren Weisberger is a popular title with women at the library "All our female readers are ask­ing tor it. says librarian Bethany Hinton The new Harry Potter book Ham Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the most frequently requested item at the library The book will hit bookstores this Satur­

read. She can still read, and is thankful for it. “After my chil­dren, reading is my greatest blessing," she says.

Heisetz leaves the Rosten book on her coffee table for people to look at, and would recommend it to anyone. “It is filled with gorgeous reproduc­tions - and I don’t use that word lightly," she says. The yitle. out-

of-print, is still obtainable, says Heisetz. She recently bought four copies and gave them to her children. “It's a delightful book - a tribute to the human spirit." says Heisetz.

As a reaction to any number of traumatic life experiences (including accidents and natural disasters), those with PTSD develop many stressful reactions stemming from the memory of the original event. Difficulty sleeping is common among those with the disorder and researchers have now round that wear patterns along the necks of the teeth are also an apparent potential consequence. Moreover, tnose suffering with the anxiety of PTSD also have worse oral hygiene in general, includ­ing greater incidence of gingivitis. These symptoms provide dentists with means o, detecting PTSD. While it has already been established that general stress gives rise to tooth-grinding (bruxism), those suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) grind their teeth and clench their jaws more than usual.

Realizing the relationship between oral health and a patient's overall health, your family dentist uses many techniques to diagnose, treat, restore, and promote total patient well-being We offer this column to our readers in the hopes of educat­ing the general public about the benefits of good oral health. If we can help, either by answering questions about bruxism or by providing comprehensive dental care, please call us at 978-475-2431 We're locafed at 296 Lowell Street (Rt 133), with easy access off Rt. 93

THE TOWNSMAN, JUNE 19, 2003 23

By Kyle McCauleyWith the onset of sum­

mer and the sweltering New England heat invari­ably come trips to the local ice-cream shop.Now residents Steve and Maggie Repucci give Andover and its surround­ing towns a new alterna­tive: Mad Maggie’s.

With the closing of such local spots as Gina Marie's, the Repuccis, of 1 Delphi Circle, saw a lack of Andover ice-cream choices. The couple opened Mad Maggie's roughly three weeks ago, with the intent of filling that void and satisfying the craving for summer’s guilty pleasure.

Maggie's was original­ly slated to open for busi­ness in Andover, but the couple says it could not find a suitable storefront in town. “We wanted to be in Andover,” says Mag­gie Repucci, "becauseAndover needs it (an ice- ___________cream shop) so badly.”

The Repuccis are still targeting Andover for a shop in the future. "We're hoping to expand to Andover,” says Maggie Repucci. “This is kind of a stepping stone.”

According to Steve Repucci, Mag-

Mootone brings ‘Andover maki/ food cooked at the table

Authentic decorations of the Japanese culture to match the cuisine and compliment the dining experience can be found inside the doors of Andover’s newest restaurant at 15 Railroad St., next to the commuter-train station.

The selectmen approved the victualer license for Mootone last Monday. So now it’s sushi - or cooked table food - for everyone.

In fact, the restaurant offers 180 different dishes, from teppanyaki items to “party boat” options for fam­ilies or larger parties.

Lunch specials are offered from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekdays.

MV Chamber begins summer

Yizhong Yin, owner of Mootone. is no stranger to Railroad Street, or the world of Asian dining. His Teatone, a Chinese restaurant, opened two doors down from the Mootone site in 2001. So Andover residents now have a choice between Chinese items such as fried crab ran- goon at Teatone and Japan­ese selections such as Cali­fornia maki at Mootone.

Mootone is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 9:30 p.m.

Health-care trendsThe Merrimack Valley

Chamber of Commerce's Human Resource Associa­tion will present “Health Care: Emerging Trends and Practical Solutions for Employers” co-sponsored by Betsy Hole of AITAC today, Thursday, June 19 from 11:45 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Wyn­dham Hotel in Andover. Lunch will be served. The cost is $20 for members. $25 for Merrimack Valley Cham­ber members, and $35 for people who are not mem­bers.

This seminar will cover the different options employ­ers have these days for health and dental insurance. Topics will include:

• Health plan definitions

25 different flavors with which to indulge their taste buds. Prices range from $1.75 for a chil­dren’s cone to $4.50 for a large sundae.

The Repuccis, 10-year residents of Andover, named their shop after the initials of their children. Micheal, Amanda and David and, of course, after Maggie herself. Feeling left out, the Repucci’s youngest daughter, Kristen, demanded to have her name associated with the business, too - resulting in the flavor "Kristen Crunch.”

Unlike large ice-cream chains, Maggie’s ice cream is homemade. "We want to produce a high quality product,” says Steve Repucci.

Customers like Dave Coombs, 33, of Salem, N.H.. who dropped by the First Essex branch in Pelham. N.H.. last Friday, will be watching. Coombs became a First Essex bank customer after his last bank made mistakes on his account after another merger.

“So long as every­thing stays the same.I’m fine with it. but if they start whacking me with fees. I'll jump. I could jump to Citizens or to the credit union on (Route) 28." Coombs said.

Philadelphia- based Sovereign Bancorp announced last Friday it had agreed to buy First Essex Bancorp, one of the Merri­mack Valley's last local, publicly- held banks, in a deal worth about $400 million. If regulatory agencies and First Essex shareholders approve the sale, it would be complete some­time after Dec. 31. bank officials said.

The news sent shares of First Essex Bancorp soaring nearly 26 per­cent last Friday, closing at $46.88 on the Nasdaq exchange. Shares of Sov­ereign Bancorp fell 4.5 percent, clos­ing at $15.68 on the New York Stock Exchange.

Sovereign Bank has more than 500 branches and more than 1.000 ATMs and about 8,000 employees in Pennsylvania, New Jersey. Connecti­cut, New Hampshire, New York. Rhode Island, Delaware and Massa­chusetts. It has $23.5 billion in deposits.

First Essex, based in Andover, is a $1.8 billion bank holding company with 11 community banking offices in Massachusetts and nine in New Hampshire. It was one of the Valley’s oldest financial institutions, founded in 1847 as Essex Savings Bank by the same people who built Lawrence's Great Stone Dam.

“For the customers, it means a very large and substantial bank that can bring a whole array of cash man­agement and loan products that we could not," said Leonard Wilson. First Essex Bancorp's chairman and CEO, who will retire as a result of the sale. "This brings a bank that has the same attitude of service that First Essex has. Sovereign bank is a com­munity bank, and if you visit their office, the focus is on people and cus­tomers and relationships."

Past working relationships among top officers of First Essex Bancorp and Sovereign Bancorp helped set up last Friday’s acquisition.

“When you know somebody , it's a lot easier to understand their strategy and philosophy,” said Joe Campanel­li. chief operating officer of Sover­eign Bank in New England. Campan­elli. his CEO John Hamill and First Essex's Wilson all worked at the defunct Shawmut Bank.

Although Wilson. 63. was known to be looking toward retirement, Campanelli said the First Essex acquisition wasn't an auction-style

“For customers it

means a very large and

substantial bank.”

LEONARD WILSON

RETIRING FIRST ESSEX CEO

sale. The banks came together because of their like-minded focus on customer service and small-business loans, he said. "We had a couple of meetings.”

By acquiring the Merrimack Val­ley's leading local bank. Sovereign will take first, second or third place in each community’s market share, as measured by deposits, Campanelli said.

Campanelli said he will be "disap­pointed" if Sovereign doesn't retain

close to 99 percent of its First Essex accounts in the first year after the deal closes. The company's official estimate is that it will retain about 95 per­cent.

Many banking cus­tomers became famil­iar with Sovereign

when the company acquired 285 Fleet branches three years ago. Regu­lators required Fleet to divest after its merger with BankBoston.

"Having gone through the largest branch divestiture in the country just three years ago, we're very sensitive to consumer needs," Campanelli said.

First Essex customers can expect "minor adjustments" in the bank's offerings, but Sovereign wants to avoid disruption, he said.

Along with a leading market share. First Essex has a highly visible chief executive in Wilson. Campanel­li promised local leadership for Sov­ereign's newly acquired territory. "That is our plan, to have local peo­ple living and working in the com­munity.”

As he paused outside a First Essex branch in Pelham, local business owner Rick Hammar, 50. couldn't decide how Sovereign's bid for the smaller First Essex would affect Pel­ham. When Citizens Bank came to town, the large New England bank had marketed itself by going door-to- door to small businesses in the area and offering a competitive deal.

Still, the banks Hammar said he remembered most fondly were the small community banks like Pelham Bank and Trust, which owned the branch at Pelham Plaza before First Essex. Hammar remembered how Louis Fineman, Pelham Bank's pres­ident and chairman, gav e him his first car loan to buy a Camaro. w hen he was still a teen and had no credit his­tory. When his father needed a loan to build the building that would become the family 's art supplies and sign store in Pelham. Fineman made the loan.

"He always took the time to come out and give people personal atten­tion." Fineman said.

When it bought it a decade ago. First Essex had worked hard at pre­serving the small-town feel. Hammar said. A portrait of Fineman still hangs in the Pelham branch as does a huge mural of the town center behind the branch's row of tellers. The mural and portrait w ere the things Hammar said he most wanted Sovereign to leave untouched.

"If they can keep those homey touches in Northern Mass, and Southern New Hampshire, so people don't feel like they have to move to Vermont, then it's OK with me." Hammar said.

Saturday the locals travel to face Gloucester Post 3 at O'Malley Field in Gloucester (4 p.m.), and Sunday Andover hosts Lynn Post 6 at Aumais Park (5 p.m.).

Righthander Kyle Ahern (1-0) is the scheduled starter tonight, while righiy Jon Shaw will pitch Saturday and Bateson on Sunday.

“They are the 1-2-3 pitchers in our rotation,” said Iarrobino. “Peter Burke- Wallace. Brian Buckley and Tom Arrigg could also do some spot start­ing or relieving.”

□ □□The Danvers game was rained-out

last week and has yet to be resched­uled.Injury report

Post 8 is down two key players, catcher Paul Skinner and first baseman Joel Keefe, both of whom suffered a hand injury recently.

Skinner cut the index finger on his right (throwing) hand and needed 14 stitches to close the wound, suffered while working in the lab of a Woburn tech company on his first day of a sum­mer job.

Keefe, who throws lefty, cut a ten­don on his right (glove) hand and needed 12 stitches and surgery.

Skinner is out indefinitely and Keefe, whose hand and forearm are in a cast, is expected to be sidelined 4-5 weeks.

Paul Chiozzi, Tim Hughes and Ryan Shepard will share the catching duties in Skinner’s absence, while Chris Vining has taken over for Keefe at first base.

Andover 11 Saugus 4

After grabbing a 5-0 lead in the fourth, Post 8 needed four runs in the sixth and two more in the seventh to break open a 5-4 game in Saugus.

Starting pitcher Jon Shaw (l-0) worked four shutout innings before a four run Saugus fifth made it interest­ing briefly.

Peter Burke-Wallace earned a save with 2 1/3 frames of hitless relief. He got the third out in the fifth and fanned the side in the sixth.

After a one-out error in the seventh, the game ended on a 6-4-3 double play from Chris Hanlon to Matt lorio to Chris Vining.

Post 8 notched an unearned run in the first when leadoff batter Paul Chiozzi singled, took second on Sam Basta's bunt and scored on an error.

In the third Chiozzi and Basta sin­gled, both advanced on a passed ball, Brian Buckley laced an RBI single to center and Hanlon lofted the first of four Andover sac-flies.

Andover Major League Baseball

The stage is setTown Championship Series on horizonBy Rick Harrison

The regular season forAndover Major Little League baseball players

is winding down, setting the stage for both the 2003 Town Championship Series and the annual District 14 Tournament upcoming later this month and in July.

The best-of-3 Major Division (9-12 years) Town Champi­onship at the Deyermond Field complex is tentatively scheduled for June 29 (Sunday), July 1 (Tuesday) and July 3 (Thursday, if necessary).

Neither the American nor the

National League has determined a champ yet, with four teams still in the wide-open AL mix and a three- or four-way playoff possible next week.

An amazing success story is taking play in the NL where coach Ed Taylor’s Braves, 0-16 last year, are 14-0 this season and bidding for the title.

□ □□The American and National

League Major 11-12 All-Star teams were selected earlier this week.

Both are scheduled to begin play in the double-elimination District 14 tourney on Saturday,

The Andover Public Schools Physical Education Deparment conducted its annual 4th- and 5th-grade track and field relay meet at the high school track facility recently.

More than 900 students participated in at least one of six differ­ent events, all done in four-person relay teams. Events included 4x100 meters, 4x200 meters, medley relay, softball throw, long jump and triple jump. Students competed against other students in their same grade and gender, from all public elementary schools in town.

Dan Fisch, grade 4 from South School, runs the medley relay.

Mackenzie Koravos, grade 4 at High Plain, edges out Hannah Kreiger, grade 4 from South School, in the medley relay.

Adams, Mass., the locals beat Wellesley and lost twice to eventual World Series partici­pant Jesse Burkett of Worcester, 3-0 and 9-0.

In 1988 the Andover Nation­als defied the odds and won dis-

June 28.The Nationals will battle

Chelmsford Lupien and the Americans will face Lawrence Tower Hill, with the site and time of the games yet to be announced.

District winners advance to Sectional play, which is fol­lowed by State and Regional Tournaments. Regional winners move on to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pa. in mid-August.

Last year the Andover Amer­icans won the District title and played in the Sectionals at Weafer Park in Woburn, where they also claimed the crown with victories over Danvers National (3-0). Arlington Amer­ican (8-6 after trailing 6-2) and Lynnfield (2-1). They also lost to Lynnfield (5-4).

At the State Tournament in

trict, sectional, state and region­al championships, qualifying for the World Series where they went 1-2 and were eliminated after an opening 8-2 loss to Southwest Regional champ Spring, Texas.

Jim Arnold, who managed that team, is an assistant coach for the Andover Americans this year.

Rich Crowley is head coach of the 2003 American All-Stars and Guy Ehlbeck heads the Nationals.

□ □□The Major 9-10 All-Star

teams will be selected within the next two weeks. Their division of the District 14 tourney starts later.

Major 9-10 head coaches are Paul Conway for the Americans and Ed Taylor for the Nationals

Kyle Ahem mopped up with an inning of hitless relief, end­ing the game on a 1-6-3 double play after issuing a one-out walk.

“Bateson had a low pitch count and was cruising,” said Iarrobino. “Ahem came in to get a little extra work."

Post 8 scored all the runs nec­essary in the first. Paul Chiozzi reached on an error, took second on Sam Basta's infield out and scored on Brian Buckley's dou­ble to left-center.

A fielder's choice grounder by Chris Hanlon erased Buckley at third, and Hanlon later

crossed after singles to left-cen­ter by Matt Hennessy and Ryan Shepard (RBI).

It remained 2-0 until Andover put together consecu­tive four-run innings in the fifth and sixth.

Buckley’s long three-run triple to center cleared the bases in the fifth, after Matt Iorio sin­gled to right-center, Chiozzi reached on an error and Basta walked. Hanlon rescued Buck- ley with a single to left.

The locals loaded the bases again in the sixth when Iorio singled to center, Chiozzi sin­gled to left and Basta walked. Peter Burke-Wallace was safe on an error as Iorio scored. Han­lon's infield chopper plated Chiozzi and Hennessy drilled a two-run single to right.

Post 8 turned two double­plays and the keystone combo of shortstop Hanlon and second baseman Iorio played strong defensive games.

Buckley doubled, tripled and

drove in four runs, while and three runs scored. added two hits each. Basta andChiozzi finished with two hits Hennessy, Shepard and Iorio Iorio both scored twice.
