Customers ask place: When is the best time to buy a Car or Truck?

The RIGHT answer: (Part 2) There are some times of the year that seem better than others. I already spoke about the end of the year. Another good time is toward the end of winter going into spring. We all know about the Presidents Day sales in February. Customers, dealers and manufacturers all are beginning to feel a little stir crazy from the long cold days of January and early February. As this holiday comes along there is a bit more excitement and a strong desire on the dealer and manufacturer to get selling for the spring and summer markets. Usually this is also a time in which the

manufacturers step up their advertising and incentives to support this goal. The model year changeover is a good time to buy. This is normally the September, October time frame. Incentives on the current model year are usually strong and inventories are still pretty good as the new model year is beginning to show up. Dealers will be making room for the next years vehicles and starting to trim inventories approaching the year end and holiday seasons. At Place Motor we will always do our best to save our customers as much as possible whenever you decide to buy. We will lay out all your options for you to see and make your best decision. We want the time you choose to be the right time to buy your new car or truck.

Booklovers’ Gourmet, located in Webster will celebrate 23 years in busi-ness this March. A destination store, which consists of a 1,000 square foot independent bookstore, coffee house & gift shop, Booklovers’ Gourmet opened its doors in early March of 1995 by own-er-operator Debra Horan, a Webster native and graduate of The Rhode Island School of Design.

From the very beginning, the shop was envisioned as a central gathering place where people could enjoy good books, local art, poetry & music and other cultural happenings in a cozy, inviting space. Still in its original loca-tion at 55 East Main St., Booklovers’ Gourmet carries a wide variety of new & used books on all subject matters and interests as well as hand selected gift items, many locally made, including pottery, garden & home decor, jewelry, candles, incense and greeting cards. Educational puzzles & toys by “Melissa & Doug” are featured prominently in

the children’s room. The café offers homemade pastries

by Phyllis’s Bakery in Putnam, CT and organic, micro-roasted coffee from Hogan Brothers Coffee Roasters in Framingham, plus other specialty bev-erages like smoothies, matcha green tea and apple cider.

There are many opportunities to socialize on a monthly basis-book dis-cussion groups, writers’ groups, open mics, author readings & signings, spe-cial workshops and artist receptions.

“The heart and soul of this type of community-based business is being able to offer cultural opportunities for everyone to enjoy without having to travel to the big city. To be able to expe-rience different ideas and viewpoints through these events or viewing art is vital and enriching for everyone,” said Horan.

Another example of this priority is showcasing the work of local and student artists throughout the year.

Booklovers’ Gourmet is a longtime member of trade organizations The American Booksellers Association and The New England Booksellers Association. Closer to home, Debra is active in the local business community as president of The Webster Dudley Business Alliance.

A special event is planned to mark the occasion and thank the community for their continued support. The celebra-tion will take place all day on Saturday, March 3 with discounts, giveaways, raf-fles & refreshments from 10a.m.-5 p.m. Live music with The Grey Whisker Pickers will take place from 12-2 p.m.

Winter hours for Booklovers’ Gourmet are Tuesday-Friday 10 a.m.-6:30 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m.-5 p.m.

For more information or listing of events, call (508) 949-6232, visit us online at https://www.facebook.com/book-lovers55/, or just stop in for a visit!

WEST BROOKFIELD — History continues to keep on keeping on in this happenin’ town. Last year, Cindy Larson decided to throw a party in honor of George Washington, and she and her husband own, she reasoned, a great place for it to take place. Ye Olde Tavern, a centerpiece in this town since 1760, hosted the country’s first president in 1789. He wrote about it in his diary; his horses were fed and watered whilst he enjoyed lunch.

“We’ve had calls throughout the year, requesting another birthday bash for George,” Larson recently remarked. “We had a great time doing it; it’s his-tory, it’s fun. People haven’t stopped talking about it. Rob Lyon will wel-come and entertain with period mil-itary music on historic instruments;

every item on our menu is appropriate to Washington’s time. The toasts, well, you just have to be there.”

Due to the popularity of the obser-vance last year, the tavern offers two evenings in which to celebrate this year: Monday, Feb. 19, and Thursday, Feb. 22. Dinner, $24.99, will be served from 5:00 to 8:00 P.M. each evening. For reserva-tions, call 508-867-9709. The seven-course meal will include hot cider with rum, served in a commemorative take-home mug. The room in which Washington would have dined, appropriately deco-rated for the occasion, may be visited.

The tavern was built by 18th centu-ry prominent citizen David Hitchcock, who also donated to the town a substan-tial portion of the land now the town common. Washington noted, in his

diary account of his stop there, the still-rugged land-scape; he compared the homes here to some he’d seen in Connecticut. He enthused over the beautiful Wickaboag Pond, and recorded his unfavorable opin-ion concerning the condition of the road from Palmer. Some things never change.

President John Adams visited in 1824, and General Lafayette in 1824.

Lafayette appears to have generated the most excitement among the towns-people. They placed candles in their windows in his honor.

Ye Olde Tavern is located at 7 East Main St., West Brookfield. If George were to attend, he’d be celebrating his 286th birthday.

They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder and when looking at a home there are typically several views on the value of the home. One price is the value a seller is willing to sell their home for. They may have what is called emotional equity in the home which caus-es them to believe the home is worth than a ready, willing

and able buyer would pay for the home. They may love the 30 year old carpeting and the newly wallpapered rooms. I am not saying that there are not buyers that would prefer these features but the majority of buyers are looking for hard-woods or tile floors and painted walls. If the buyers love the home except for those things then they will see the value as lower because they are consid-ering the cost of making the changes to the home to make it work for them. They usual-ly will assume a much higher number than the actual cost of the updates to take on risk of other repairs being needed to be made.

If inventory is low then you

may have buyer overlook these features just to get the home so they don’t lose it to another buyer. The Real Estate Agent that represents the seller will be pushing to get the value the sellers wants for the home and may even feel the home is closer to the value the seller believes the home to be while the agent representing the buyer will believe it is lower than the sellers agent. This is due to the agents clients many times will influence their opin-ion of value and they will buy into some of that emotional equity. The best buyer for the home that will pay the most money is the buyer that is simi-lar to the sellers and values the same features and that is why

highlighting the features that the seller fell in love with is the best route to go to find the best buyer for the home.

Another value is the appraised value which is an objective view of the apprais-ers professional opinion of the home. However, this is based on their opinion so I have seen an appraiser look at the home and give their opinion of value and another appraiser come in a week later with a value that is 10% off of the other appraised value. The challenge is many times the appraiser is only using data of sold homes which shows the past but if you are in an appreciating market then the market value will end up being higher than the

appraised value of the home is. I think most consumers look

at the assessed value by the town which is used for tax pur-poses and is not usually rep-resentative of the true market value of the home. You also have websites such as Zillow or Trulia or Redfin which just pull data from the local area for similar homes and come up with a value. If the data is incorrect the value will be incorrect, if your condition is inferior or superior to the sim-ilar homes it will be incorrect or if you have homes close to you that are in neighborhood with different values than your neighborhood it will make the value incorrect.

Musician Rob Lyon offers a toast to George Washington on the 286th anniversary of his birth. Lyon will welcome guests with period military fife music to Ye Olde Tavern for Washington’s birthday dinner on Monday, Feb. 19, and Thursday, Feb. 22.

“My focus is always on the general fund. Special revenues and such come and go. The general fund did slightly better than anticipated in FY 2017. Revenues came in a little over $200,000 more. Most of that is related to Medicaid because you don’t budget that as a receipt and when it comes in it just drops to the bottom line. Expenses came in lower by about a million dollars. That’s a lot of money, but to put that in per-spective it’s just about two percent of the school budget which means the district was about 98 percent right. That’s a good crystal ball from a budgeting perspective,” Sullivan said.

Sullivan complimented the district in several areas, espe-cially revenues where he said the district was on point with expectations.

The district also shined in smaller areas as well. Sullivan also laid out the spending on assets for the 2017 fiscal year which added up to around $150,000.

“In capital assets there was a lot of activity this year. There was a $103,000 worth of assets added. The biggest thing was the new security system. I think the district bought four pho-tocopiers for about $11,000 each and the district bought one vehicle for $19,000. Also, I forget how much it was but there was a convection oven acquired also,” Sullivan said.

In the end, Sullivan said the district received an unquali-fied opinion, the best result they could hope for. Considered an A-plus in terms for school grading, Sullivan said these results speaks highly for the district and its fiscal responsi-bility over the last year.

“No adjustments were required to be made to the books. These are things that if we found them we’d ask them to be recorded permanently to the general leger and that was not necessary,” Sullivan said. “The audit opinion, which is really the only thing we own and all the pages in the financial state-ment was unquailed. That means, in laymen’s terms, it’s a clean opinion. You can’t get any better.”

February is American Heart Month, so before you think about what kind of flowers or type of candy to buy for Valentine’s Day, choose the Valentine that is better than any bouquet of expen-sive red roses or box of chocolates: show your love by supporting your sweetheart in quitting smoking.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, smoking is a leading cause of heart disease; it can lead to the narrowing of blood vessels and high blood pressure. Quitting smoking greatly improves heart health.

Give Valentine’s Day new meaning by helping your loved one become a nonsmoker. If your sweet-heart is thinking about quitting, here are some ways your gift of support can encourage them along their journey:

1. Let your sweetie know you’ll be their quit partner for as long as it takes – a smoker usually tries to quit many times before they quit for good.

2. Remind them that going cold turkey is not always the best option. Recommend that they talk to their doctor about stop-smoking medications. Smokers who use stop-smoking medicine are twice as likely to quit for good!

3. Help them celebrate the small victories – like the first 24 hours of being smoke-free, the first week, or the first time they make it through a stressful event without smoking.

4. Bring them little treats like sugar-free gum, mints, and healthy snacks to help keep their hands and mouth busy.

5. Distract them from cravings and help them relieve stress – take a walk with them, send them a reassuring text, or just run an errand together.

If it seems like your loved one is in a bad mood, try not to take it personally – nicotine is a very addictive drug! Quitting smoking is one of the most difficult things they will ever do.

Lastly, it is common for those attempting to quit to slip up and have a cigarette. If this happens to your loved one, don’t be discouraged or critical. Help them think about what they learned from that quit attempt and remind them of all of their good reasons for quitting. Most importantly, let them know you’re there for them when they’re ready to try again.

To learn more about how you can help your loved one quit smoking, visit makesmokinghisto-ry.org and click on the “Quit Now” tab. And, while you’re there, click on “What is the Helpline?” to learn more about how the Massachusetts Smokers’ Helpline can provide online and phone support.

This Valentine’s Day and American Heart Month, give the perfect gift; show your beloved just how much you care with the gift of support, and, ultimately, heart health.

The Central Massachusetts Tobacco-Free Community Partnership supports communities’ efforts to lower smoking prevalence and expo-sure to secondhand smoke; enhance state and local tobacco control efforts by exposing tobacco industry tactics, mobilizing the com-munity to support and adopt evidence-based policies, and changing social norms. Funded by the Massachusetts Tobacco Cessation and Prevention Program, Community Partnerships serve as a resource for local coalitions, health and human service agencies, munici-palities, and workplaces on tobacco intervention efforts.

Tyvon is an active ten-year-old boy of African American descent who loves being silly and making people laugh. Tyvon is also very artistic and can often be seen drawing and creating things on paper. During times of leisure, Tyvon likes

playing video games and watching television. When he gets a bit older, Tyvon says he wants to be a professional football, baseball or basketball player. In school Tyvon is working towards reaching his fullest potential. He proudly entered into the fifth grade this school year.

Tyvon is ready to find his forever family. Tyvon does well in family settings and could be placed with either a two-parent or single parent family. It would be best that if there are other children in the home that he is the oldest child and there are no children of competing ages.

Who Can Adopt?Can you provide the guidance, love and stability that a child needs? If

you’re at least 18 years old, have a stable source of income, and room in your heart, you may be a perfect match to adopt a waiting child. Adoptive parents can be single, married, or partnered; experienced or not; renters or homeowners; LGBTQ singles and couples.

The process to adopt a child from foster care requires training, interviews, and home visits to determine if adoption is right for you, and if so, to help connect you with a child or sibling group that your family will be a good match for.

To learn more about adoption from foster care, call the Massachusetts Adoption Resource Exchange (MARE) at 617-6273 or visit www.mareinc.org.

The sooner you call, the sooner a waiting child will have “a permanent place to call HOME.”

In previous columns, I’ve dis-cussed how popular vintage and antique advertising signs and other advertising memorabilia are with collectors. Most people are aware that there are adver-tising collectors who specialize in large national companies like Coca Cola. There are many adver-tising items from factories, stores, farms and other local businesses that also have collector value.

I discussed Worcester brewer-ies in a February 2017 column and will just touch upon beer advertis-ing here. Bowler Bros., Brockert and Worcester Brewing Company were some of the larger brewer-ies in Worcester. Oldbreweries.com lists some lesser known Worcester breweries including Gindele & Reuther Brewing Co., N. Hines Brewery John McNamara Brewery, S. B. Thomas Hotel & Brewery and Geo. Warren Webster Brewery.

Advertising memorabilia from local breweries is popular with both local memorabilia collectors and those who collect all types of breweriana. Even though Bowler Brothers celluloid (old form of plastic) and metal matchsafes aren’t uncommon, they can sell for over $100 in nice condition. Tadcaster Beer trays by Worcester Brewing Company often sell for $100 or more. We recently sold a Worcester Brewing company keg that brought over $125 at auction.

White and Bagley began producing Oilzum motor oil in 1888 in Worcester. The Oilzum logo picturing a driv-er with goggles is very pop-ular with automobile mem-orabilia collectors. “Oilzum Motor Oils Lubricants” is written across the driver’s cap. A later version of that logo features the driver inserted in a wedge design. Prior to the driver with gog-gles, Oilzum used “Bucky” “the bucked tooth kid” as an advertising character. You can sometimes find Cleanzum hand cleaner tins by Oilzum for under $25.

Older oil cans, in fine condition, typ-ically sell in the hundreds of dollars. There are many reproduction signs, but if you have an original, it should also sell for three figures. An Oilzum curb sign (shaped like a lollipop on a base) can bring thousands of dollars.

The Worcester Hoop Skirt Company was founded by David Hale Fanning in Worcester in 1861, according to the Metropolitan Museum of Art website. The company shifted production in 1872 and became the Worcester Corset Company. Fanning became president in 1888 when the company went public. The company was renamed to the Royal Worcester Corset Company in 1901. Paper ads promoting “Queen Bess”

and “Bon Ton” corsets are fairly com-mon and typically sell in the $20 range. An original Royal Worcester corset in excellent condition can sell in the low hundreds. As I write this column, there is a Royal Worcester corset advertising poster for sale priced at $900 online.

Table Talk Bakery still sells pies in Worcester, but Town Talk Bread is no longer in business. The Worcester Historical Museum website states that Town Talk was in business from 1912 to 1973. Town Talk employed 125 people in Worcester and 50 in Dedham after World War II. A search of past auction

records shows some signs selling for $75. The highest sold for $550, which is quite a bit of dough.

Webster and Dudley both have a green arrow to turn,” the chief told select-men during a Feb. 6 meeting. “I believe there’s a ten second delay so as you approach the light from one direction it will turn green with a green arrow. That will go for about ten second and then the arrow shuts off and traffic then gets let out of Webster. Once the traffic from Dudley stops the next green arrow lights up to turn (left) down Schofield Avenue.”

The intersection is home to numer-ous businesses and has been the cen-ter of repaving projects in addition to attempts to mediate traffic over the past

few years. It also provides easy access to Village Street, which leads to Dudley Elementary School, among other facili-ties of note in addition to being the last four-way intersection between Dudley and Webster along Route’s 12 and 197. According to Wojnar the traffic signal and new signs aren’t the last of the changes commuters can expect at that intersection, which has gained a repu-tation as one of the busiest four-ways in the town.

“That is one of those intersections that at some point is going to need a major redesign and work,” Wojnar said. “We have gotten some positive feedback on it so at least it helps to alleviate the traffic there. Where working on getting some signs there to ask people not to jam up the intersection.”

Editorial Several areas in town are the subject of traffic complaints. Recent upgrades to the traffic signal at the intersection of Routes 197 and 12 (West Main Street and Schofield Ave.) have finally taken place. Thanks to an initiative spear-headed by our Town Clerk, Ms. Ora Finn, a new traffic sig-nal was approved

at town meeting and installed. Turn arrows and a new cycling of lights enable drivers in the area to pass through the intersection safer. This should help alleviate backups and limit crashes at this location. I wanted to make drivers aware of this upgrade.

This intersection is divided into turn lanes for both east and westbound traf-fic. One of the problem spots at this intersection involves West Main Street traffic heading to Webster. Much of the traffic intending to turn left onto Village Street, had difficulties passing through safely. This resulted in backups and a number of crashes. The addition of des-ignated turn arrows in both directions on West Main Street will assist to limit these situations.

The lights cycle in two stages for the West Main Street traffic. When drivers are headed east toward Webster, the green signal and arrow will activate first. This will stay active for approxi-mately 10-15 seconds. The green arrow then fades out while the through traffic is allowed to proceed. At this time, the solid green signal for the westbound traffic starts. After several seconds, the eastbound traffic will have the red sig-nal. When this occurs, the westbound green arrow activates, allowing traffic to turn onto Route 12 south (Schofield Avenue). Of main concern at this point is some vehicles have a tendency to enter the intersection without the turn arrows active. This causes many issues for traffic in other directions trying to proceed. We are asking drivers cooper-ation to avoid blocking the intersection.

This is one of the locations in town that is heavily traveled and requires a major upgrade. These new signals are helpful, however; they are considered more of a temporary solution. We are looking into long term fixes. In the meantime, it is important for people to pay attention to signals and not block the intersection. This area is very tight for the volume of traffic and it has been the site of many crashes. The extra attention and cooperation of drivers is greatly appreciated.

Valentine’s Day is almost here – and it’s a pretty big business. In fact, U.S. consum-ers spent about $18 billion on their valen-tines in 2017, according to the National Retail Federation. Of course, recipients certainly appreciate flowers, candy, jewelry and so on, but this year, consid-er going beyond the traditional favorites to give your loved ones something more long-lasting – a financial gift.

And, while you’re doing so, why not also go beyond the traditional definition of a “valentine”? After all, not all that $18 billion went to spouses or signifi-cant others. A sizable amount also went to non-romantic connections, including children, parents, friends, teachers – even pets. So, in the spirit of ecumeni-cal Valentine’s Day gift-giving, here are some suggestions for financial gifts for your loved ones:

For spouse or significant other – One valuable gift to your spouse or signifi-cant other might be an IRA contribution. While you can’t directly contribute to someone else’s IRA, you can certainly write a check to that person for that pur-pose. This gift is particularly valuable because many people have trouble com-ing up with the maximum annual IRA contribution, which, in 2018, is $5,500, or $6,500 for individuals 50 and older. As an alternative to an IRA contribution, you could give shares of a stock issued by a company whose products or services are enjoyed by your spouse or significant other.

For your children – It’s never too soon to start saving for college for your chil-dren. Fortunately, you have a few attrac-tive college-funding vehicles available, one of which is the 529 Savings Plan. You can generally invest in the plan offered by any state, even if you don’t live there. If you do invest in your own state’s plan, you might receive a tax incentive, which could include a deduction, match or credit. Plus, all withdrawals from 529

Savings Plans will be free from fed-eral income taxes and, in most cases, state income taxes as well, as long as the money is used for qualified col-lege or graduate school expenses of the beneficiary you’ve named. (If a withdrawal is

taken from a 529 Savings Plan but not used for a qualified expense, the portion of the withdrawal representing earnings is subject to ordinary income tax and a 10% federal penalty.)

For your parents – You can probably find a number of thoughtful and valu-able financial gifts for your parents. You could, for example, offer to pay a month’s worth of their premiums for their auto or health insurance. Even if they are on Medicare, they may still be paying for a supplemental policy, so your gift may well be appreciated. But you might want to go beyond helping them with just a single component of their financial sit-uation and instead provide them with assistance for their “big picture.” To do so, you could arrange a visit with a trust-ed financial professional, assuming your parents aren’t already using one. This person could look at all issues, including investments, retirement accounts, long-term care and estate-related financial strategies, and then make appropriate recommendations and even referrals to other professionals.

Everyone likes the hearts, flowers and sweets of Valentine’s Day. Nonetheless, give some thought to making financial gifts – they can make a difference in your loved ones’ lives long after the chocolates are eaten and the roses have faded.

Consider financial gifts for all your Valentines

All you need is…

It’s two days after Valentine’s Day, and the week of Presidents’ Day. We honor both George Washington and Abraham Lincoln in a single holiday; keeping it to a Monday holiday for the sake of workers and school children, but at least we do still remember two of the presidents who made huge marks on American history.

Washington was the first duly elect-ed president, he didn’t really want it, but felt he was honor bound to take the office because someone needed to guide the fledgling country into being. He had helped create the atmosphere for the Revolution, he had helped draft the new laws taking shape to create the country, the baby constitution was still barely taking steps and a lot of people were already trying to dismantle it, saying the whole idea just wasn’t going to work.

He had a lot of support, he had been a war hero in several wars, not just the revolution but the earlier scrimmages with the French too. And he was well liked by politicians, military people, and even the not so well known but able to vote bourgeois. He helped keep the country going those first few years, and the grand experiment was held together to take a few more steps under a new regime, changing hands without revo-lution or rancor just as it was meant to.

Lincoln stepped into a minefield not of his making. Nor was he comfortable with much of his own presidency. There are multiple biographies of the man, who describe him as “conflicted” and “ambiguous” about the questions that ultimately took the country into its civil war. He wasn’t necessarily anti-slavery; nor was he pro-slavery. He was hoping for some sort of compromise. But when that didn’t look promising, he chose. And he backed it up. Then he made every effort to reunite the country in some manner.

He didn’t want the war; but he sup-ported his troops and his men. He qui-etly wrote about the losses, to both sides in the conflict, and reminded others that they were fighting “ourselves.”

His work, though unfinished, kept a presidency alive through a difficult time, and moved it thorough what could have been the end of the entire country as we now know it. We could have been two countries, perhaps even more, had the fight among ourselves gone much differently or the pieces reunited been done so in a different manner.

Then of course, we have Martin Luther King Day and the entire month paying homage to a people who for many years were less important in our history. Not because they didn’t do valuable work, but because their work wasn’t valued. That has changed, or is changing rather, because it isn’t finished. And while we might choose to honor Black History Month, what about Asian History Month? Or Scandinavian History Month? Or Indian History Month? Or Icelandic History Month? Or Australian History Month? Or Uruguayan History Month?

See, we have a habit of over reaching. We bend over too far in attempting to right wrongs sometimes. Yes, people were ignored when they shouldn’t have been; text books and histories and tele-vision shows were way too narrow in showing diversity for way too long, and still are. But we can’t fix that with a single fix. We can’t say, ‘here, we’ll cel-ebrate everybody’s everything for one week this week and another next week and there, everybody’s recognized.’

Let’s celebrate real accomplishments by real people no matter who they are. When someone does something…good! Hurray! We don’t care if you are purple!

Let’s not rewrite all the books, some of them very good books; or put movies out of circulation, very good movies; because someone somewhere isn’t well represented. That isn’t real life.

It isn’t always going to be entirely fair; or righteous. But we can celebrate the goodness. And admire the ones who we missed when we weren’t aware.

A Roundup of Timely Tips

The groundhog saw his shadow and that means another month or so of cold, wintry weather and the threat of cabin fever. Thankfully, readers in our area have used some of their cooped up cre-ativity to share with oth-ers some tried and true tips and tricks. Read on for the latest submissions, and remem-ber readers, send in your favorite hints and you could win dinner for two at the Publick House!

This reader has the solution for a gen-erations old household challenge:

I FINALLY figured out how to fold a

fitted sheet by myself!I lay it in half the long way on a

queen bed. Then fold the edges in on the top, bottom, and the open side. Usually about nine inches when matching the seams. Then it is so easy to fold the sheet in a perfect size for storage. I like to store the set together with the pillow cases in the center!

Happy and healthy New Year to all your readers.

Claire HorvathSturbridge**A duo of helpful hints from a regular

contributor saves both money and time!

Tip #1: We are all creatures always aiming to please and simplify our lives, at least I am hence always organizing. Moving photographs beneath a sheet of glass at my work space is much less cumbersome as I took a wine cork (now recycled), sliced it into x 4 equal eighth inch round slices. I installed one beneath each corner of the sheet of glass and can now update and rearrange pho-tos easily.

I love looking at family member and friends’ photos or can add an affirma-tion there for the day or a memorable poem etc.

Tip #2: With a 30 minute lunch break

I often bring vegetables etc. on the run and then find myself in a crunch at lunch time, Today it took only one to two minutes prep and seven minutes on high in the microwave to cook two acorn squash halves I cut, removed the seeds, added olive oil and spices, then turned them face down on a dinner plate. I put about an 1/8 cup of water on the plate and inverted a ceramic

mixing bowl over the top of both squash halves. In seven minutes, a healthy meal side was ready!

Viola BramelNorthbridge**A quick swipe and this

repurposing tip cleans up!

I use a dryer sheet to wipe the dust off

my TV screens. Works great!Terry MaioranaAshford, CT** Unconventional but true? This resub-

mitted tip bears repeating (and trying)! This tip works: If you have leg cramps

during the night, keep a bar of soap (any kind) wrapped or unwrapped in your bed. It works and everyone I’ve told says so too!

Wally BoutinDanielson, CT **Prize WinnerCongratulations to Claire Horvath of

Sturbridge. Her name was drawn for Dinner for Two at the Publick House! She offered the sheet folding tip above.

**Dinner for Two at the Publick HouseYour tips can win you a great dinner

for two at the historic Publick House Historic Inn in Sturbridge! Simply send in a hint to be entered into a random drawing. One winner per month will win a fabulous three course dinner for two at the renowned restaurant, located on Route 131 across the town common in historic Sturbridge. Because I’m in the business of dispensing tips, not invent-ing them (although I can take credit for some), I’m counting on you readers out there to share your best helpful hints!

process I’m more than willing to apologize and help us get back to a constructive working relationship for the citi-zens of Dudley,” Brackett told Ruda and his fellow selectmen. “For all the years I’ve been practicing law, I’ve always under-stood that a motion for reconsideration had to be filed within ten days – I have always filed a motion for reconsider-ation within a ten-day period because the issue of the order that we’re asking for reconsider-ation is still fresh in the mind of the judge who may have made that deci-sion. The whole idea of filing the motion of recon-sideration was because I truly felt this judge had made a mistake of law and several mistakes in fact.”

Brackett said he had sent out an email in December requesting correspondence with

Ruda after first learning of the concerns over the inconsistencies in the date. Bracket admitted he did not expect the matter to be discussed in pub-lic, but it was when Ruda openly commented on the issue during a meeting in January.

A clearly frustrated Ruda was very forward in his statements towards Brackett, and said he felt selectmen weren’t only misled, they were lied to, and thus presented wrong information to the residents as a result.

“Now that Attorney Brackett is representing that an error was made when he realized that error, and apparently, the motion hadn’t been mailed out yet, he didn’t call (Town Administrator Greg Balukonis) and let him know that was the case. We have it on record,” Ruda said. “It should have come as no surprise that we wanted to vote on this.”

Bracket defended his actions as ones with the

best interest of the town in mind, although he did acknowledge that his decision making was in some way impacted by an emotion related to his rivalry with Talerman during the cemetery debate. Still Bracket stood by his actions and said he felt he was doing what was right to protect the integrity of his client, the town of Dudley.

“I had established that Mr. Talerman lied in his original complaint. I’ve been practicing munici-pal law for 44 years. This is the first time I’ve filed a motion for contempt for someone falsifying a pleading, whether it’s land court or superior court. Did I feel strongly coming into that meet-ing on Sept. 25 about the wrongs that Mr. Talerman had commit-ted? I think it was sort of a conclusion to all of the things that had hap-pened during the course of those proceedings,” Brackett said. “I’m sup-posed to represent my

client vigorously against what I feel to be wrong statements. In this case, they were falsified state-ments. Did I make a mis-take on the evening of Sept. 25? I did. As I said at the beginning of this presentation and as I said to Mr. Ruda when I sent him the email on Dec. 22, I was simply asking for an opportunity.”

As the meeting pro-gressed to over an hour and a half worth of discus-sion frustrations boiled over with Selectman John Marsi openly show-ing frustration over the continued impact the cemetery debate has had on Dudley even in terms of the issues with attor-ney Brackett.

“I know there was some assumption on (attorney Brackett’s) part. We’ve gone for this up until now, but when you start getting told no, I don’t know. I can see things from a higher level. This is politics, even at the judicial level. Nobody was going to touch it,”

Marsi said. “I just think that we got way ahead of ourselves on this. No one was going to change anyone else’s mind – Now this spiraled into something that it proba-bly shouldn’t have been. Selectman Ruda has the right to bring stuff for-ward to the board and we all have the right to talk about it.”

Ruda was also very for-ward with his frustration stating at the one hour mark that he felt like he still had no answer and that Brackett was beating around the bush. This led Ruda to state he felt it was time for Dudley and Bracket to part ways.

“I don’t have any con-fidence in Gary any-more. He lied to me. That means everything when it comes to this kind of situation,” Ruda said. “He didn’t file the paper-work on the date that he told us he did. He didn’t do it. So, I brought it back to the board and I find myself under attack here for not responding to his

email when it took me six weeks to get his response. It’s outrageous. Attorney Brackett misrepresented something to us that we brought back to the pub-lic – I’m not satisfied with this and I don’t have con-fidence in him anymore.”

Even with the vote looming Brackett was steadfast, arguing that he did not lie to the town or selectmen in September and that a mistake was made that he owned up to, his first on record since beginning his ten-ure with the town in 1994. In the end the vote came down 4-1 to terminate the town’s partnership with Bracket with Selectmen Paul Joseph being the only dissenting vote as he believed Brackett earned the opportunity to make things right.

“There’s no attempt at some kind of trust build-ing or remediation at all. It’s just a termination,” Joseph said. “I think remediation with a long time town council ought to be recognized.”

It’s time to break out the seeds and potting mix to start your garden plants indoors. It’s a great way to keep your green thumb in shape over winter. Plus, you’ll save money, increase your variety of plants and jump start the growing season when you start seeds under LED grow lights.

Indoor growing condi-tions often offer limited light and that can mean tall leggy transplants with weak stems. You can greatly increase your success by investing in quality grow lights. Adding artificial light to your seed starting regime results in stout trans-plants with strong stems and deep green leaves.

Invest wisely when shopping for indoor plant

lights. Fluorescent tubes used to be the standard because they provided a wide spectrum of light needed for plant growth and flowering, were relatively inexpensive and readily available. Unfortunately, they used significant amounts of electricity and need-ed to be replaced every few years. Then many gardeners shifted to full spectrum fluorescent grow lights. Many last longer than the older and larger fluorescent tubes, but new LED grow lights (gardeners.com) provide even better light intensi-ty with much less energy.

If you’ve looked at LED lights in the past, you may have suffered stick-er shock. Fortunately, the prices have dropped.

And if you c o n s i d e r LED plant lights typ-ically use half the energy of f l u o r e s -cent tubes, p r o v i d e consistent light quality and last up to five times longer, the long-term savings out-weighs the initial invest-ment. Plus, they’re mer-cury-free and won’t add contaminates to landfills.

When replacing fluo-rescent tubes with LED grow lights, look for com-patibility. Some of the newer LED grow lights are compatible with existing T-5 light setups. You just replace the bulb, not your whole lighting

system.Y o u

w i l l get the m o s t out of y o u r invest-m e n t a n d g r o w

better transplants with proper use. Move seed-lings under lights as soon as they start break-ing through the soil surface. Keep the lights about six inches above the top of seedlings. This means you’ll need to raise the lights or lower the plants as the seed-lings grow. Make your own light stand using adjustable supports to raise and lower lights as needed. Use a reflector

above grow light tubes to direct the light down-ward toward the plants. Bounce light back onto seedlings by using reflec-tive surfaces under and around the plants. Even easier, invest in a quality grow light stand like the SunLite® Garden.

Set the lights on a timer. Seedlings need about 14 to 16 hours of light. Plants do need a dark period, so running the lights longer wastes electricity and is not good for the plants. If you are using grow lights to sup-plement natural daylight, you may only need to run the lights a few hours a day. Monitor plant growth and increase the duration if plants appear leggy or pale.

Increased light along

with proper watering, fertilizer and growing temperatures will ensure you have a bumper crop of transplants for your gardens and containers.

to shows about every other year in Carney’s early years as director.

That changed this year in large part because of a $16,000 grant from the Janet Malser Foundation. Normally, Nashville costs about $700 per student, but with the grant, they only need to raise $280 each.

“It’s a lot easier to fundraise,” he noted, having previously observed, “They’[re fundraised-out If it wasn’t for [the foundation], we wouldn’t be having this opportunity. They’ve worked to make their show really good because we’ll be on a national stage.”

Brodeur also thanked Bartlett’s music parents’ association, saying, “We wouldn’t have anything without them.”

“They’re people who have seen us grow,” senior Alana Parrott added. “If we don’t do it for us, we’ve got to do it for them.”

This year’s show is a somewhat eclec-tic collection of pieces tied together with the theme of “competition – the strug-

gles, the highs and the lows,” Carney added. In practice, that has meant a bit of competition with oneself for each or them; he noted he’s tried to make them a bit self-critical, and “sometimes they don’t see the talent they have.”

To Bsoumai, it means setting goals. “We know we have to practice,” he

said. “We know when it’s time to have fun and when it’s time to prepare. When you think you’re doing too much, you’re not doing enough.”

“We’re not settling with what we have now,” Brodeur agreed. “We pushing to the end of the year.”

To senior Ethan Wolfram, winning out of the gate – Shepherd Hill was their first competition of the year; Tantasqua last weekend was second, and a third remains besides Nashville – means reminding himself “we can’t get cocky and need to keep going.”

It also means changing things. Carney noted their choreographer Darvin Hernandez watched them at Shepherd Hill and revised the routines. They also had a “clinician” who reviewed the judges’ comments and notes with them.

“He made it better,” Carney noted

regarding Hernandez. “We’ve got a good team.”

All of the teens noted they “grew up in the music wing,” in Parrott’s words, in some way. Some were in choir in middle school. Most came from the band side of things before joining choir, playing one or more instruments, although Wolfram said he’s been “sing-ing forever.”

If they had their way, some would love to craft their own stage shows. Bsoumai said he’d do one on the evolution of Bartlett, noting the school “started from nothing and was looked down-upon, but now we’re at the top.”

Parrott said she’d pick a broader topic – the evolution of music, incorpo-rating routines from centuries of musi-cal history.

She noted her interest came from how she got into music – her first show choir camp had a Motown theme, and gave her the wish to do something with “all kinds of music.”

Show choirs themselves have changed a lot over the years, and differ in various parts of the country. Some, such as in California, have sets that are

“crazy,” with “a lot more story-story shows,” Brodeur said. Parrott agreed, noting the concept was really born in the Midwest, where judges expect less complex shows. To her, the shows that have lots of props “can be too distract-ing” for both audience and performers.

“It needs to get back to the basics,” Bsoumai added.

Carney said the show choir “started to get a little more focused on musicals” several years ago. He started directing in 2000, and one of them in his early years was The Who’s “Tommy,” but he said his favorite was one themed on the “life of a politician.” That one started with the American dream, but “then you found out they’re all dirty,” he recalled.

Besides the choir as a whole winning, Brodeur and Parrott took home judges’ awards, as did pianist Nick Rockwood. Brodeur was named Outstanding Performer, while Parrott was named, as she termed it, “Diva-licious Queen of Everything.”

“Basically, I got a judges’ award for being me,” she laughed. “I don’t know what to say about that.”

in. Representative Durant and I are optimistic that hopefully these trends will continue as we go towards the end of the fiscal year.”

Fattman said the Senate begins deliberations in May and explained he has a few proj-ects already in the pipeline for Dudley. Specifically, he wants to focus on transportation and addressing the ongoing educa-tion cost concerns that have plagued Dudley and Charlton in the last few years.

“I’ve worked with Senator Gobi about regional transpor-tation funding. She and I are part of the regional transporta-tion caucus. We have asked for that to be funded at 100 percent. Unfortunately, the governor’s budget is at 65 percent which is essentially level funded from the year previous. We’re hoping

we can get that up. We’re also looking at special education cir-cuit breaker funding. That was also funded at 65 percent. We’re trying to move it $33 million to 75 percent,” Senator Fattman said,

The Senator added that he is seeking more funding for edu-cation cost relief, although that looks a tab bit less promising that the transportation fund-ing for now. “One of the com-ments I made (back in the fall) is programmatic budget items are things I don’t like to neces-sarily fund because they’re here one year and gone the next,” Fattman said. “However, capital items are something that I do think merit a lot of attention and they have identified a genera-tor for the school which I guess has failed previous at the begin-ning of school. That’s something I know Representative Durant and I are going to be advocating for, about $160,000 in the state budget.”

Representative Peter Durant concurred with Fattman saying that challenges are on the hori-zon for the new budget year, but he would like to keep the needs of Dudley and other towns in focus. “I do expect those things about Chapter 70 and circuit breaker funding, things of that nature we’re always going to fight for and try to get those increased. I think we’ll see some of the local aid increases that the governor has been steadfast on as keeping those up with the budget increas-es and keeping them at the same level,” Representative Durant said. “We’ll have more informa-tion obviously as this process goes on.”

The two lawmakers closed their nearly 20-minute discus-sion leaving officials with high hopes that as the new budget sea-son approaches Dudley will be in good hands in Boston despite all the uncertainties still to be ironed out.

This past Saturday had numerous anglers ice fish-ing on local ponds, hoping to catch a few fish for the dinner table. The Whitinsville Fish & Game Club also held its annu-al ice fishing derby this past Saturday and had a good turn-out of members that enjoyed the warm weather, and they caught some nice trout. John Meagher of Whitinsville brought along his granddaugh-ter Hanna Dunohue shown in this week’s picture holding a rainbow trout. The fishing derby ended at 11:00 a.m., but Hanna was still fishing, hoping to catch a larger trout than her granddad. A large group of ice fishing anglers con-verged on Lake Nipmuc this past Saturday, and had a great day of fishing and eating some great food from the grill. The heavy rain of this week sure took a toll on the ice thickness, and totally wiped out all ice on the Cape. Anglers will need to head out to the western part of the state to find safe ice.

Local fishing legend Dan Southwick hauled in a few more pike in the last two weeks at his favorite fishing hole. Dan caught two more pike that were larger than the ones I reported on a few weeks ago. Setting in at his fishing hole at 3:00 a.m. is common practice for Dan, and the bait that he uses remains the secret for catching big pike.

What a monster!!!!This is the time of year to

do some rabbit hunting, if you are fortunate enough to have a couple of good beagles. Although the local rabbit pop-ulation is down considerably from earlier years, they seem to be making a comeback. Local hare populations are also down locally, but a short trip to the western part of the state could have you enjoying some good hunting for these elusive rabbits. The bare ground that we are enjoying can only add to a day of great rabbit hunt-ing. Listening to the hounds baying as they trail a rabbit is music to my ears. Only a true rabbit hunter can appre-ciate the sound of a couple of beagles as they chase a rabbit through swamps and fields. I sure do miss the rabbit hunting that I enjoyed through my ear-lier years. The Cape can also provide the rabbit hunter with some good hunting, but you need to do your homework. Rabbit hunting out of state is another option.

This week’s picture shows my two sons David and Ralph Jr. with pheasant and rabbits taken locally with my first bea-gle Joe, which was purchased from the late John Bolanzo, of Douglas many years ago. My Joe dog won numerous trials that were held at the Blackstone Valley Beagle Club in Douglas. The Beagle Club was formed in 1962 by a group of sportsmen that enjoyed run-ning their dogs on snowshoe hare, that were purchased live by area clubs from a trap-per in Canada. At the height of the trapping season, area clubs purchased 1,500 hare annually, and stocked them in

areas like the Douglas State Forest. The continued stock-ing of snowshoe hare kept a good population of hare in the area for sportsmen to train and run their dogs during the off season.

We spent many nights at the Douglas State Forest running our dogs at Bear Swamp, and at what was called the “old pine tree “ on the old Thompson Road in Douglas.

Listening to the hounds bay-ing as they trailed the hare was indeed the most enjoyable and exciting time of our lives, which has left me and my bud-

dies with many great memo-ries.

The Beagle Club purchased a large tract of land for unpaid taxes back in the ‘60s and it is still being maintained by a group of local sportsmen, however the beagles are now absent from the clubs run-ning of snowshoe hare, due in part to the elimination of snowshoe hare being import-ed to Massachusetts. Anti-hunting groups voiced strong opposition to the importation of hare into Massachusetts and succeeded in stopping the annual stocking of hare

called “Operation Snowshoe”! Because of new predators like fisher cat, bobcat, and coyotes it is unlikely many hare would have survived today in local covers.

With all of the complaints of coyotes killing residents’ pets, and attacking a couple of young children recent-ly (which is extremely rare) a group of sportsmen decid-ed to hold a contest for the largest coyote harvested in the area, hoping to eliminate the threat. It did not take long for a couple of anti-hunting groups to oppose the event. SAD!!!!

Do not forget the upcoming sportsmen’s show at the Big-E in Springfield Feb. 23-25. More on the show next week.

STURBRIDGE — Trailing by four points with 90 seconds to play, the Tantasqua Regional boys’ varsity basketball team scored the final eight points of the game to overcome a mon-umental 3-point shooting per-formance by Bartlett High’s Logan Paranto and defeat the Indians, 71-67, on Thursday, Feb. 8 at Tantasqua Regional Junior High.

Paranto, a sophomore, fin-ished with a game-high 25 points, 21 coming on shots from beyond the arc.

“This was a good win for us. We had to battle the whole way. They’re young and aggressive and they play that run and gun style. Tony [Paranto, the Bartlett coach] always seems to reload,” Warriors’ head coach Tom O’Neil said. “His son was phenomenal tonight. He hit so many big shots. We knew com-

ing in that he could light it up. He hit seven 3’s and he had a hand in his face on a lot of them.”

With 1:32 to play Bartlett senior Dom Palmerino (12 points) hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key to give the Indians a 67-63 lead. Try as they might — and the Indians did — they would not score again.

Chase Freeland, Tantasqua’s junior point guard, scored his only points of the night with 1:20 to play, hitting a left side 3-pointer to pull the Warriors to within a point, 67-66. With 51 seconds to play Paranto looked to extend the Bartlett lead, but his layup attempt after a nifty baseline drive — on which he cut between two defenders — rolled around the rim and fell out, not in.

Nine seconds later Tantasqua junior Hayden Peterson (14 points) put the Warriors ahead for good, 68-67, on a follow-up, put-back basket off a team-mate’s miss on a shot from the perimeter. With 23 seconds to play Bartlett looked for the go-ahead basket on another layup attempt, this one from Dylan Paddleford, after a crisp through-the-lane pass from Wilson Aybar, but that shot somehow stayed out as well.

Tantasqua senior Evan Couture (a team-high 17 points) gave the Warriors a 69-67 lead with 19.3 seconds to play when he hit one of two free throws, and senior Drew Peretti (13 points) closed out the scoring and sewed up the victory with a pair of three throws with 1.5 seconds to play to account for the 71-67 final.

“We kind of found out who we are a little bit tonight. Some of the guys stepped up,” said O’Neil, whose team improved to 11-5. “Cam Arello [11 points, all in the second half], he final-ly showed up for the first time in a while. He’s been up and down. Hayden’s always been a phenomenal rebounder for us, but tonight he played great defense, had a key block and scored on the follow-up on the layup.

“I told the guys tonight, this game is about heart. I asked them, ‘how much heart do you guys have?’” O’Neil contin-ued. “We played South [Feb. 6] and it was an awful game. We didn’t play well and they played great. I told them we had to bounce back and that this would be a great team to go against because they’re one of our rivals and we’ve always had battles with them. It was fun.”

While it was fun for Tantasqua, the game — and more specifically the loss — was heartbreaking for Bartlett, who dropped to 7-10 and was eliminated from a chance to qualify for the Central Mass. Division 3 Tournament. The Indians, however, did not go quietly, jumping out to a 6-0 lead to start the game and lead-ing 15-8 after one, 32-28 at the half and 52-49 after three quar-ters. Senior forward Johnny Torres added 18 points to the Bartlett effort and all of them seemed like big scores at key times.

“We played really hard; we looked like a team of the future tonight. I thought we played with enough poise to be in

this game. I thought we took care of the ball as much as we could; better than we have been taking care of it,” coach Paranto said. “I’m proud of the kids. The kids played really hard. They played disciplined tonight. I thought we made shots when we needed to. I was proud of the way they played.

“In the game of basket-ball, though, you need a lit-tle bit of luck and the ball

just didn’t bounce our way,” coach Paranto explained. “On Logan’s ball, he drives and pen-etrates baseline and his layup rolls out when everything has been going in for him all game. Then we’re down two and still in it and they take a shot and we box out pretty well and we can’t come up with the rebound; it goes to them. We didn’t get the bounces tonight.”

BOLTON — Jim Hackenson, head coach of the Shepherd Hill Regional girls’ varsity basketball team, called Nashoba Regional — the Rams’ opponent on Friday, Feb. 9 — “a quali-ty team,” and it appeared that the Chieftains were going to be able to play right with the Rams in their matchup.

The Hill held slim leads of 11-8 after the first quar-ter and 28-24 at halftime,

but they turned in an impressive second half — they won the third and fourth quarters by a combined 34-24 — to pull away for a 62-48 victory.

“We really picked it up in the second half and the kids responded very well,” said Hackenson. “They’re a good team, and good teams find a way.”

“It was a long ride here and we don’t really do well on long rides, so we started off slow but at halftime we regrouped

and really picked it up. We came out strong,” added Shepherd Hill’s Molly Springer.

Springer, a center, was a force down low, espe-cially in the second half. She opened the third quarter with a defensive rebound followed by a layup down the other end of the floor on two sepa-rate occasions. Mix in a deep jumper from senior guard Sarah Bellantoni, a 3-pointer from senior guard Bailey Savage (13 points) and a jumper from sophomore guard Isabella Nascimento (18 points, 12 rebounds) and the Rams had an 11-0 run to open up a 39-24 advan-tage.

Hackenson thought that the team’s defense led to offense, stating, “I think our half-court man defense was outstanding. They [Nashoba] live and die by the 3’s, and we got a lot of rebounds. And we got into a transition game with them and we scored off the transitions.”

Nashoba won first half rebounding, 18-17, but the Rams dominat-ed the glass in the latter two quarters, 28-14. As a result, The Hill outre-bounded the Chieftains, 45-32. Springer pulled down an astronomical 18 boards to go along with 19 points, both game-high totals.

“That’s outstanding,” Hackenson said when

hearing about Springer’s numbers. “She worked hard for every point she got and she had a lot of rebounds. I [also] thought Julia Dandridge rebound-ed really well.”

Dandridge, a senior forward, had six points and nine rebounds.

“Julia and I both have older brothers, so we’re used to fighting and the contact,” Springer said of the hard work down low.

Shepherd Hill contin-ued its impressive third quarter and ultimately won the frame, 21-4, to lead, 49-28, entering the final period.

With 5:40 to go in the fourth quarter and after Nashoba had scored six of the first eight points, Dandridge hit Springer

with a pass in stride down low and Springer finished off a lefty layup. Then, with 2:48 left, Savage dribbled the ball on the fast break and looked right before pass-ing left to a wide-open Springer, who again hit a lefty layup to push the lead up to 59-42.

Springer is naturally right-handed.

“I feel like when I go up left I’m more nervous, so I focus more. I usual-ly make more left shots than right shots, it’s real-ly weird,” Springer said of the quirky — but effec-tive — habit.

Nashoba junior for-ward Brienne Donahue finished with 14 points and 13 rebounds, but totaled just three points

and three boards in the second half. A combi-nation of Dandridge, Springer and junior for-ward Kayleigh Irish were effective in slowing down Donahue’s role in the final two quarters.

Senior guard Sarah Gilloly scored a team-high 15 points for the Chieftains, who dropped to 12-5.

Shepherd Hill improved to 15-2 and has one regular game to go — to be played after press time — before partak-ing in the Westborough Invitational Tournament and then the Central Mass. Division 1 section-al tournament.

CHARLTON — The Assabet Valley boys’ varsity basketball team scored the final 13 points of its game with Bay Path Regional, turning a tense and taut one-possession lead into a 69-53 final, a score that made the game look like a blowout when it was anything but.

With the win, their ninth straight, the Aztecs improved to 15-1 overall and 12-1 in the Colonial Athletic League Large Division. Bay Path dropped to 12-7 over-all with the loss. The Minutemen are 8-4 in league play.

With five minutes to play in the game Assabet led by six points, 56-50. With 4:21 to go Bay Path’s Joren Ellis (a team-high 17 points, three 3-pointers) cut that lead in half when he canned a trey from the top of the arc.

The Aztecs’ Gerry McManus (18 points, three 3-pointers) answered Ellis’s triple with one of his own, pushing the Assabet lead back to six, 59-53, with 3:22 to play. McManus’s 3-pointer started Assabet’s game-ending string of 13 straight points. Jeff Hunter, who scored a game-high 23 points, had seven of the points in the run while McManus scored the other six.

“It was anybody’s game early in the fourth quarter, but down the stretch we couldn’t hit a shot and they couldn’t miss,” Bay Path head coach

Al Greenough said. “The last couple of weeks, before tonight, we had fallen into a rut offensively and defensively that I didn’t really like. That was really the goal tonight, to get out of that rut, and I thought we did that.

“Assabet is a quality team, one of the best teams in Division 4,” Greenough continued. “These kids came out tonight and did pretty much everything I asked them to do. It was back and forth the whole game, and it was an exciting game. Then, in the fourth quarter, there was that one stretch where they hit five shots in a row and we missed five shots in a row and that was the difference in the game.”

Also scoring in double figures for the Minutemen, with 11 points, was Kody Sandgren. Caiden Ellis added nine points, while Cory Cotton and Pat Dyer scored five points each.

Assabet began to take control of the game — which had 11 lead changes and eight ties in the first half — at the beginning of the second half. The Aztecs scored the first five points of the third quarter, turning a one-point (30-29) half-time deficit into a four point lead, 34-30, less than a minute into the quarter.

The third quarter lead for Assabet got as high as nine points (48-39, 1:12 left in the quarter) but Dan Keefe hit a pair of free throws and Dyer banked home a shot to cut the Bay Path deficit down

to five, 48-43, as play entered the fourth quarter.

The Minutemen cut the lead down to three, 48-45, 30 seconds into the period on a post move my Jamie Rodriguez, but Hunter answered with an old school three-point play to push the Assabet lead to six, 51-45, with 7:12 left.

Bay Path scored the next five points to pull to within one, 51-50, with 6:37 remaining. Joren Ellis hit a right side 3-pointer to begin the mini-run and Caiden Ellis finished it with a layup off a drive through the lane.

Assabet answered the Bay Path run with one of its own, scoring the next five points to take a 56-50 lead with 5:13 to play. D.J. Bass scored his only basket of the game, on a drive and layup, to make it 53-50, and McManus followed with a left side 3-pointer to extend the Aztecs’

lead to 56-50.

Assabet head coach Bob Corazzini said he was pleased with the poise his team showed in a tight game, in the fourth quarter, on the road.

“That’s something we’re learning as the season goes along; that’s something we had to learn this year,” Corazzini said. “I think last year and in seasons’ past, we may have lost this one. But I think the guys are starting to under-stand that they have to keep their com-posure in those situations.

“I told the guys, the harder you play the luckier you get,” Corazzini contin-ued. “If you keep the intensity up and you continue to play hard, you’re going to get those close calls, you’re going to get those loose balls, and you’re going to get those long rebounds. That’s what this game came down to.”

MARLBOROUGH — On Saturday, Feb. 10, the New England Sports Center played host to one of the fierc-est rivalries in all of high school hockey throughout Central Mass. when the Auburn/Millbury/Shepherd Hill/Tantasqua varsity squad took on Hudson High. The Rockets officially tied the Hawks to open the

season, 1-1, but it was in the Dana Willard Memorial Christmas Tournament so a winner had to be deter-mined to move on. Hudson won in the shootout, leav-ing a sour taste in Auburn’s mouth.

But the Rockets exacted some revenge and took home a 3-1 win over the Hawks, as Auburn moved to

an impressive 10-5-3. They close the regular season at the Wallace Civic Center versus Leominster High at 4 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 15 before hosting North Middlesex Regional at the Horgan Arena on Saturday, Feb. 17 at 7 p.m. The Rockets will then partake in the Central Mass. Division 3 sectional tournament.

AUBURN — Junior for-ward Amalia Monson scored twice, including a goal with 26 seconds left in regulation, to secure a 2-2 tie for the Auburn High girls’ varsity co-op hockey team — which also includes student-athletes from Shepherd Hill Regional, Tantasqua Regional, Oxford High, Douglas High, Grafton High, Holy Name High and Notre Dame Academy — against Framingham High on Monday, Feb. 5 at the Horgan Arena.

Time was counting down and the Rockets were a goal behind despite their immense effort in the third period to stay in the game. With less than a min-ute left, the Rockets continued their aggressive play, looking for the equalizer.

“We knew we needed to win, I just pressed on them to come out and work hard. We had two lackluster first two periods where we let them outshoot us and beat us, so I told them that we had to come out strong in the third period and they did,” said Auburn head coach Peter LaPrad. “They came out strong and saw an opportunity, popped a couple in, which is good.”

There was under 30 sec-onds left in regulation and, after passing the puck into Framingham’s defensive zone, Auburn senior forward Carrianne Fortier slapped a shot that was padded out by Framingham goalie Hailey Vandelstyn, but junior cap-tain Julia Siemen rocketed another shot off the rebound that was blocked once again by Vandelstyn. From there, Monson cleaned up the rebound and put the puck into the back of the net to tie it with 26.7 seconds left in the game.

Both of Monson’s goals came in the third period.

Throughout the whole dura-tion of the contest, Auburn’s defense was its strength despite the two goals allowed. Due to their good defense and superb goaltending by senior captain Colleen Fellows, the Rockets were able to be in the position they were in late in the game.

“That is a focus of ours,” explained LaPrad. “I run this team from the back end out, strong defense, good goalten-ding and then up to the for-wards, so it is critical for us, we work on it a lot. It is our focus. Our focus is to be defensive mined, have them quarterback the play and they do a good job of it and they did again

tonight.”Throughout the course of

the season Auburn has had its struggles, but has grown immensely and it is starting to show with their recent play.

“We are maturing, it is funny we have a lot of seniors on the team, but we also have a lot of young players and the young players are active. They are out there getting game time and I think they’re starting to mature a little bit,” LaPrad stat-ed. “When they start out, the young players are not used to the pace of play because they’re so young and they have that four-year span in high school, so I think they’re getting a little used to it and starting to get over the butterflies, starting to mature a little bit.”

With the season winding down for the 3-8-3 Rockets, they have goals they want to hit before the end of the year.

“We have six games left; I would love to see us win all six of them. One or two of them are against tough opponents and in those games I just hope

that they go out there and do as good as they can,” LaPrad expressed with a lot of hope. “We would like to get at least

three or four more wins on the season, that would be our goal.”

Obituaries

PHILLIPSTON- William “Bill” Nutting, 67, of Phillipston, MA passed away on Friday, February 2, 2018. He is survived by two sisters, three sons, a step-son and a long haired miniature dachshund. Bill was born on July 8, 1950 in Westfield MA, the son of Roger Nutting and Marguerite (Amblow) Nutting. He spent most of his youth in Fitchburg, MA, where he attended pri-mary and secondary schools and went on to graduate from Fitchburg State College with a BS in Secondary Science Education. In 1972 Bill embarked on what came to be a forty-five year career when he acquired a job as a lab techni-cian at Mount Wachusett Community College in Gardner, MA. While assist-ing professors, developing labs, and running the school’s greenhouse, Bill

continued his education obtaining his Masters in biology and eventually becoming a professor himself for near-ly three decades. Bill loved to teach and to learn. He had an insatiable curi-osity that was evident by an always increasing pile of books. An extensive traveler and certified scuba-diver, Bill had the good fortune to experience once-in-a-lifetime moments that he loved to relate to a willing ear. A short list of Bill’s other accomplishments would be: designing and building his own home, creating college courses, obtaining a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, a skilled gardener, and a mad quil-ter. Bill will especially be missed and remembered as a great conversation-alist and as a model of how to sustain a state of wonder.

William Kames (aka Kamizirides), 91, passed away on Saturday, Feb. 10th, in the UMass Memorial Medical Center, University Campus, Worcester, after a sudden illness.

His wife of 55 years, Elpida (Lambrianidou) Kames, passed away in 1997. He leaves his son with whom he lived, Alexander Kamizirides and his wife Despina; his daughter, Eleni Kamizirides of Dudley; his grandchil-dren, William, Jason, Nick, Elpida and Christina; and his great grandchil-dren, Amanda, Alexandra, Magdalena and Leonidas, who will miss him very much. He also leaves his two broth-ers, Stathi Kamizirides of New York, NY and George Kamizirides of Greece; his sister, Parthena Tsakovridou of Greece; and many nieces and neph-ews. He was predeceased by his two infant children, three brothers and two sisters. He was born on Oct. 13, 1926 in Mesovraho, Kastoria, Greece, the son of Haralambos and Elisavet (Apatzidou) Kamizirides. He got mar-ried at the age of 15 and took the role of ‘man of the house’ to his wife’s 3 sisters and mother who lost their father and husband.

In 1956, William won the town lottery,

giving him and his family a chance to come to America. With $100.00 and one suitcase, his journey to make a better life for his family had begun. He quick-ly became employed at Press Wheel in Southbridge, until the company moved. He then began working at the American Optical Co. in Southbridge, retiring in 1983. William continued working alongside his son, Alex, with their business, Alpha Machine. His talents reached far beyond his jobs, he was a ‘jack of all trades’. As the years passed and was physically unable to do certain things, he enjoyed Sudoku, facts and figures, world events and playing cards with his daughter, Eleni. Nothing brought him more pleasure than seeing his family. He will be deep-ly missed.

William’s funeral will be held on Friday, Feb. 16th, from the Daniel T. Morrill Funeral Home, 130 Hamilton St., Southbridge, with a service at 11:00am in St. George Greek Orthodox Church, 55 North St., Southbridge. Burial will follow in Oak Ridge Cemetery, Southbridge.
