Wally Higgins remembers hisdays with Tuskegee Airmen

By SHERRY VOLKAlfred Sun Reporter

ALFRED—Last week (March26 issue of the Alfred Sun) webegan the story of Alfred Stationresident Wally Higgins’ tellingabout his experience in servingduring World War II as aTuskegee Airman. We continuehis story here:

The pilot trainees learned tofly in biplanes, called Stearmans,but first submitted to a “joy ride”in a pre-flight Piper Cub, whichwas intended to see how well aman could endure dangerous andexciting conditions on the wing.

Wally recalls one landing thatwas very tricky because of astrong crosswind. The Redtails,(P-51 Mustangs) as they werecalled, because their tails werepainted the color, flown by blackpilots, escorted B-17 and B-24bombers on missions to the oilfields in Ploesti, Romania, whoseoil supplies were essential to theGerman war effort.

“They never lost a bomber,”Wally remarked.

Following victory in Europe,the pilots who had flown therewere sent to the Pacific theater,so the program at Tuskegee wascut back. Wally’s initial assign-ment was to the class designated44K (November, the 11th month,1944), but he got mumps andwas moved to 45A (January1945).

He was re-assigned to the Staff Sergeant Wally Higgins

1909th Battalion Aviation Engi-neers and was sent via LST(Landing Ship Tank), a freight-type ship, to Hawaii and then toSaipan, to develop air fields fromwhich the U.S. could launch partof the invasion of Japan.

The ship had to sail throughthe Straits of Magellan, andwould vibrate when it hit a wave.The crew was constantly weld-ing the boat to keep it together onthe journey.

Wally’s transport was at sea,midway between Saipan and Ok-

The Alfred Sun nearly fell victim to an April Fool’s prank this weekwhen it received an news release via e-mail detailing a preposterousplan in which Houghton College would build a biodome over itscampus and turn it into a tropical paradise.

Following journalistic standards, the janitor set out to verify the(mis)information but found that Houghton Public Relations SpecialistMarshall Green, who sent out the news release, was out of the office.

A second attempt to verify the (mis)information resulted in speak-ing with the campus operator, who placed the janitor on hold whileassuring that a person would take the call. Finally, Dan North ofAlumni Relations answered and explained that it was the academicinstitution’s attempt to show the world it has a sense of humor.

The story, however, was released with a date of March 31, 2015and was actually posted by WIVB as a news story, later being takenoffline. There are several athletic teams around the Alfred area whono doubt wish the story were true as it would provide a place for themto play in the predominately inclement weather this spring.

The hoax reminded the editor of this newspaper’s April 1 editiona few years back in which a “person who wishes to remain anony-mous” had donated millions to build a theme park on Jericho Hill.

Having been the culprit in that April Fool’s joke a few years back,the editor became suspicious of the Houghton story because of thedeclared “anonymity” of the donor.

Here’s the news release as received from Houghton:

New York’s Houghton College to Become First in Nationto Construct $84 Million Bio-dome over Main CampusNew dome to create a semi-tropical environment amid harsh northeast winters

HOUGHTON(March 31, 2015)–Houghton College announcedtoday that is has secured a donor gift of $60 million to fulfill theneeded funding gap in the $84 million bio-dome fundraising cam-paign. The single $60 million gift comes from a donor who wishesto remain anonymous.

Burial service April 11 for Winfield Fitz Randolph

dR.GeORGe W. HeRRICKRetired from Alfred State in 1983

ALFRED STATION- Profes-sor Emeritus of Alfred State Col-lege, Dr. George W. Herrick,died early Saturday morning(March 21, 2015) at his home onState Route 21, three days afterhis 88th birthday.

Born in St. Mary’s, PA. onMarch 18, 1927, he was the onlychild of the late William Whitingand Elizabeth Lipsie Herrick.

In 1944 he enlisted in the U.S. Navy, leaving high school theday he turned 17 and missed hiswhole senior year. (Pennsylva-nia had recently passed the lawto award honorary high schooldiplomas to World War II veter-ans). George kept the Herrickfamily line of voluntary militaryservice and graduated from Em-porium (Pa.) High School, in ab-sentia, in 1946. He was awardedhis high school diploma in 2002,after earning his doctorate in1969; following his discharge hespent a year at Kiski Prep inPennsylvania.

George and the former Phyllis“Chickie” Ballman arrived inAlfred in September of 1948where they met that fall andwere married the day after grad-uation, June 10, 1952 in theGothic, by Rev. Mike Sibley.Ray Wingate played the Carillonbefore and after the ceremonyand the reception took place atSigma Chi Nu. Days later theymoved into Saxon Heightswhere they lived for over a year.George went to graduate school,receiving his MS in Education in1953. On March 31, 1953 theirson, John Ballman Herrick wasborn and that summer; and, likehis father, he eventually contin-ued the family line of voluntarymilitary service. They moved toBarker, N.Y. where they boughta home and George began hisdoctoral program at the Univer-

sity of Buffalo (now SUNY atBuffalo).

Six years later George ac-cepted a position with the Catta-raugus County BOCES as anelementary supervisor at Hins-dale Central School and Guid-ance Counselor at PortvilleCentral School. They boughttheir second home in Portvilleand the following year Hinsdaleasked George to work full timefor them and they bought an-other home in Hinsdale. Georgewas still making the long trek toBuffalo to take courses as hecould. In Hinsdale in the fall of1961, they adopted their secondson, Lynn, who was born on De-cember 14, 1953.

While attending their 10th re-union at Alfred UniversityGeorge heard of an opening atAlfred State College in Psychol-ogy and began teaching there inthe fall of 1962, commuting 80miles daily. In December of1962 they bought their fourthhome, the former Samuel andMaria Whitford Farm in Rail-road Valley, moving in in Mayof 1963. For the first time theyhad the old home and lots ofland (180 acres) they had allworked for. Tree planting beganalmost immediately, to a totalover the years of 40,000. Be-cause of the abundance ofScotch Pine trees, and the familyname, the farm was calledScotch Hill Farm. A barn wasbuilt and later enlarged. Theybecame 4H leaders; the boysbought their own horses, and thefamily became countrified. In1972 they bought a contiguousfarm of 150 acres that borderedon the Greene Road. Since a cat-tle operation was in full swingthen, a road was built from thehighway up to the other farm. Itwas washed out in the 1972flood, as might be expected, buthas since been rebuilt. Severalyears later the herd had in-creased to about 50 head, but theprice declined and it was time tosell.

After receiving his doctoratein 1969 from SUNY Buffalo,George continued at Alfred StateCollege until retirement in 1983,an even beyond, beginning asassistant professor and retiringas full professor. During histenure at the college he was De-partment Chairman and alsobegan the Counseling Center. Hespent his working life in the ed-ucational field, mostly in mentalhealth and school administra-tion. He served as President of

the Allegany County MentalHealth Association for two termsand was inducted into their Hallof Fame in 2004, the same yearhis health began to decline.George was appointed twice tothe Board of Visitors ofGowanda Psychiatric Center, bytwo Democratic Governors (ararity for a Republican). He wasalso elected two terms as AlfredTown Justice and was a chartermember and Past-President ofthe Alfred Lions Club.

In 1975 following the death ofGeorge’s father, his mothercame to live them and a smallhome was built (where they nowreside) for her behind their mainhouse where she spent manyhappy and secure years beforeher death.

During his retirement Georgecontinued to stay busy and en-joyed his lifetime hobbies ofhunting and fishing. George andChickie purchased an oceanfront condo in Myrtle Beach in1977 to celebrate their 25th wed-ding anniversary and they werepresently preparing to visit theircondo this spring. To celebratetheir 50th wedding anniversarythey endowed a scholarship atAlfred University.

His son, John, took leave fromhis job in the South to assist withthe care of his father and work-ing on the farm. George wouldsit by the huge window watch-ing not only his son working, butall the animals who “owned” thefarm, from deer, raccoons,skunks, turkeys, etc. and even anoccasional bear.

George was a great story tellerin the early years of dementiaand could embelish any one ofthem to get a laugh! His wholefamily loved the land and theywere determined to leave theland better than when theybought it, almost 60 years ago.

Besides his wife of 63 years,Chickie, and his sons, John andLynn, he is also survived by sixgrandchildren and eight great-grandchildren.

The Bishop & Johnson Fu-neral Home, Inc. in Hornell ishonored to serve the family ofGeorge W. Herrick.

To honor his wishes there willbe no calling hours or funeralservice. Those wishing may con-tribute in his memory to their fa-vorite charity.

Online condolences or re-membrances of George are wel-comed atwww.bishopandjohnsonfuneral-home.com.

DANVILLE, PA—Lisa (Smith) Hilfiger of Mansfield, PA, wasrecently diagnosed with stage 4 melanoma cancer. She underwentbrain surgery at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, PA on Thurs-day, Feb. 19. At the time there were four identified tumors in herbrain. The surgery aimed to removed two of the tumors that werebleeding and causing severe confusion. The cancer has been foundthroughout her body including the abdomen and in one of the lungs.

A website has been set up to help the Hilfiger Family with ex-penses. Please note all funds will go directly to the Hilfiger Family.Visit: www.youcaring.com and search for Lisa Hilfiger.

Lisa’s son, Jeremy Hilfiger, a student at Mansfield State Univer-sity who is taking a leave of absence to assist his father in caring forhis mother, updated the website recently with an overview:

“On March 10th, the day Mom was discharged from Geisingerrehab, we drove to St. Luke’s Hospital in Easton, PA to discuss fur-ther treatment of the systemic disease (the cancer throughout the restof the body). Most all treatments for melanoma are still in the de-veloping stages and to get treated with some of the newer drugs onemust enter a clinical trial. St. Luke’s has a melanoma team that isrunning several trials.

“We met with one of the doctors there who gave us informationon a trial that may be beneficial to Mom’s condition. However, shecould not start the trial immediately because she needed the brainradiation first, and the trial could not be conducted simultaneouslywith the radiation.

“On March 11th, we travelled home from Easton as we waited tohear from the radiation oncologists at Geisinger about radiationtreatment plans. The next day, Mom had to go back to Geisinger dueto some complications. On Monday, March 16th the doctor orderedanother MRI, and the results revealed eight more spots. The radia-tion oncologist informed us that the situation had obviously becomeeven more serious.

“They began ‘full-brain’ radiation on March 19th, a ten day treat-ment plan (not on weekends) that would run until April 1.

“The clinical trial will hopefully begin after the radiation. Thereare still details that need to be worked out concerning the trial beforeshe can begin. One of the important details is the effectiveness ofthe radiation on the brain. An MRI has been scheduled for Thursday,April 16th to ascertain the results of the radiation.

“If everything goes well with the radiation, and if Mom is suc-cessfully enrolled in the clinical trial, then hopefully she will begintreatments soon after April 16th at St. Luke’s Hospital. There arealso a couple other places we are in contact with about possible clin-ical trials, but at the moment, it seems like St. Luke’s is the directionthings are headed.

“Please continue to pray that the Lord would guide us through allthe logistics and details of things to come, and that He'd give Momstrength as she continues through the radiation and toward a clinicaltrial,” Jeremy said.

Lyla Stephens was a gentle, loving lady. She worked hard forher church, willing to take on any job, even though she spent thelast few years of her life in a wheelchair. Her gracious smile wouldinvariably greet you as she inquired about your family or what youhad been doing lately. She was interested in everything, especiallythe children and their activities. Her loving presence is sadly missed.

WORKING TOGETHER – COUNTYSTYLE

The March 23rd session of the AlleganyCounty Legislature began with the Pledge of Al-legiance. Former Army Sergeant James “Brad”Blouvet led those present in reciting the Pledge.Brad served in the Army from 1975 to 1983. Hecurrently serves as the Supervisor of the Town ofFriendship, where I have had the privilege ofworking with him for several years.

During Privilege of the Floor County Histo-rian Craig Braack was recognized and presentedwith a plaque for his service to Allegany County.He has served us with distinction for many years.Fortunately, Craig is continuing to serve us on apart-time basis. Anyone who has attended any ofCraig’s numerous presentations knows how dedi-cated and enthusiastic he is about his work. I en-courage everyone to take advantage of anyopportunity to attend one. His next presentation isat the Senior Forum on April 2nd at the GeneseeValley Central School in Belmont.

During the preliminary portion of our meetingChairman Crandall appointed Bryan Gamache tothe Comprehensive Plan Implementation Group.Legislator Phil Curran also introduced a LocalLaw for consideration. This proposed local lawwould allow for “Common, Safe Items to be Ex-cluded from the Dangerous Fireworks Definitionas Permitted by New York State Penal Law Sec-tion 405(5)(b).” Resolution 88-15 set April 13,2015 as the date for a public hearing on that pro-posed Local Law.

The Board considered 11 resolutions, includ-ing #88-15 referred to above. Resolution #89-15petitions Governor Cuomo and the State Legisla-ture to delay the proposed legislation which wouldchange the STAR Exemption from being a realproperty tax exemption to a personal income taxcredit. This change will make it harder to claimthis exemption, and will be a burden on those(such as senior citizens) who do not routinely filepersonal income tax returns. Our Board thinks thischange is a bad idea. Resolution #90-15 approvedcertain corrections on the 2015 County and TownTax Rolls. Resolution #91-15 authorized the

Health Department to apply to the AlleganyCounty Area Foundation for a Grant to assist withElectronic Medical Record Costs. Resolution #92-15 accepted Grant funds from the Division ofCriminal Justice Services for Community Serviceand Pre-Trial Programs, and authorized appropri-ating those funds to Alternatives To IncarcerationAccounts.

Resolution #93-15 Accepted Cost of LivingAdjustment (COLA) funds for the WIC Programin the amount of $23,147. Resolution #94-15 ac-cepted and appropriated $607 of User Fees for theACT II Batterers Program. Resolution #95-15transferred $449,120 within various Health De-partment Accounts. Resolution #96-15 approved athree year agreement with the Seneca Trails Re-source Conservation and Development Council forthat agency assist Allegany County with maximiz-ing the value of its forest lands, and approved pay-ment of $75,000 over the 3 year term of theAgreement. These funds will assist in the “NewForest Economy” initiative that is currently beingdeveloped at the Alfred State College campus inWellsville. Resolution #97-15 approved a contractwith VNA Home Care for home-delivered mealsfor long-term care clients.

Resolution #98-15 was approved by the Per-sonnel Committee at its March 18th meeting, buthad not been pre-filed. It was accepted “off theFloor” which required 2/3rds approval of theBoard. This resolution, approved by a 15-0 vote,ratified the five-year agreement between theCounty and Allegany County Deputy Sheriff’s As-sociation. The terms of this Collective BargainingAgreement (“CBA”) provide for a total 10% wageincrease over 5 years. That averages out to 2% peryear. It also provides for some changes in howcompensatory time can be accrued, and for someincreased employee contributions towards healthcare costs. The County didn’t get everything itwanted in these negotiations. However, the em-ployees didn’t get everything they wanted either.Both sides had to compromise. That fits the defi-nition of a good compromise. We continue to ne-gotiate (or engage in mediation) with the other 3Unions that represent County employees.

In the Ear of the Beholder and the Eye of the Hearer

If a tree falls in a forest, and there’s no one who perceives it,Did it make a din?

If a tree lifts up a Savior, and there’s no one who believes it,Did He rise again?

—Anon A. Mouse

ALBANY–Senator CatharineYoung (R,C,I-Olean) announcedMonday that the Senate hasbegun passing a fiscally respon-sible state budget that controlsspending, monumentally in-creases state support for educa-tion, and reduces the tax burdento help create jobs and grow theeconomy.

“For the fifth consecutive yearthe state’s budget will be passedon-time and will include manyinitiatives that make our state amore affordable place to live,work and do business. The finalbudget lives within a two percentspending cap and rejects unaf-fordable tax increases,” SenatorYoung said.

“Senate Republicans led thecharge to increase school aid. Asa result, this year’s budget willprovide schools a $1.4 billion in-crease in overall school aid, andincludes another dramatic reduc-tion in the Gap Elimination Ad-justment (GEA). This landmarkinvestment brings the total statesupport for education to approx-imately $26.7 billion and ensuresstudents continue to have the re-sources they need to learn andthrive. The final budget will pro-vide a more than 50 percent re-duction in the GEA and puts inplace enough progress for fullelimination next year, which isgreat news for our children’s fu-ture,” said Senator Young.

“We successfully pushed hardto make higher education more

Senator Cathy Young saysbudget ‘fiscally responsible’

affordable for thousands of mid-dle-class New Yorkers by in-creasing funding for TuitionAssistance Program by $45 mil-lion over last year and establish-ing a new merit scholarshipprogram, with $500 scholarshipsbeing awarded to 5,000 eligiblestudents. Support for higher edu-cation will also be continuedthrough a major new investmentin public and private universitiesand community colleges acrossthe state. Jamestown CommunityCollege, our local communitycollege, provides an outstandingeducation and this year’s budgetwill increases base aid by $100per pupil, representing a $20 mil-lion boost in support for thestate’s community college sys-tem,” she said.

“The 2015-16 state budget willensure that millions of hardwork-ing New Yorkers and their fami-lies see meaningful property taxrelief. This savings will bring re-lief to the family budget and en-sure homeowners are able toinvest in their future in New YorkState. This year’s budget willprovide homeowners across thestate with larger property taxfreeze rebate checks and recipi-ents of the STAR and EnhancedSTAR programs will continue tosee tax relief. Residents and busi-nesses will also see tax relief asthe onerous 18-a energy tax sur-charge, a surcharge included oneveryone’s energy bill, will be re-moved through an accelerated

phase-out,” said Senator Young. “The budget also continues

support for job growth and eco-nomic development. We foughthard to ensure that economic de-velopment funds are available tocommunities across upstate, sothat the state doesn’t choose win-ners and losers. As a result, atotal of $1.5 billion will bespecifically allocated for Upstaterevitalization. The WorkforceDevelopment Institute (WDI), aprogram I have long champi-oned, will also continue to re-ceive support to fulfill itsmission. With the continuation infunding, WDI will be able to as-sist with training programs andother support services that havebeen vital to job growth and eco-nomic prosperity in our commu-nity,” Senator Young said.

“Finally, the budget deliversfor our local farmers. Familyfarms have long been the back-bone of our upstate economy,and this year’s budget reflectstheir continued importance. Sev-eral initiatives were included tostrengthen agriculture, includingmodification to the tax codewhich will allow for familyfarms to be passed on to the nextgeneration without severe taxpenalties, strong support for theHarvest NY program, and con-tinued support for the FarmNetprogram which provides assis-tance for farms to improve oper-ations. By investing ininnovative operations and sup-porting on-farm improvementswe will continue to grow ourfarm and agriculture industry andour region’s economy,” said Sen-ator Young.

(Continued from front page)environmental concept is based largely on greenhouse physics.

The molded panels are formed with a patented technology involv-ing press molds that utilize extreme pressure and heat. Once formed,the 30 by 30-foot LPP panels are both transparent and virtually inde-structible. Additionally, 75 percent of the panel material is producedfrom first-generation recyclable products, which helps to ensure en-vironmental responsibility and reduces project costs by over 82 per-cent per panel.

“Without this new technology, this type of project would havenever been cost feasible,” commented Jeff Babbitt, director of mar-keting and communications for Houghton College. “Dealing with ex-treme winters like this past year has always been something we havewanted to overcome. Of course, we could not just relocate a 123-year-old campus, but now we have the opportunity to create a ‘new cam-pus’ right where we are.”

Each winter, the college spends hundreds of thousands of dollarson snow removal along with the salting and clearing of ice from roadsand walkways. The employee overtime and supply costs are a tremen-dous strain on the college. The new dome will alleviate the majorityof these costs, allowing the institution to refocus these budget allo-cations to bolster the academic experience.

The development of the bio-dome will be in two stages startingwith the main campus, which includes the quad, 10 buildings includ-ing classroom space, residence halls, and parking structures. A secondand smaller dome will enclose the arts building, gymnasium and thenew $23 million Kerr-Pegula Athletic Complex that opened in Sep-tember of 2014. The school has commented that the ski hill, eques-trian center and solar array will remain outside of the dome.

“Before your eyes glaze overwith the era of this play, prepareto discover how truly contempo-rary the play is as it confrontsthe power of individuals toshape or destroy lives throughvanity or violence or both,” saidProphet, “This beautiful butrarely performed play takes anaudience on a quest to discoverthe nature of life as real and theheady nature of life as the etherof dreams.”

The surprisingly modern un-derpinning of this play leads toexplorations of philosophicalquestions: How do we as humanbeings know and separate lifefrom dream? Is one’s destiny ac-complished through free will orpredetermined by fate? Is life adream or is its reality a terrifyingnightmare that disturbs the sleepthat surrounds our lives?

Lindquist turned 100on March 18, 2015

ALBANY–“Always keepingbusy” has been the life philoso-phy for Henry Lindquist, a Boli-var resident who turned 100 onWednesday, March 18. Repair-ing and restoring antique clocksand cars, woodworking andwelding are just a few of the pas-sions that have helped him liveout this philosophy over the lastcentury.

On Saturday, March 21, Sen-ator Catharine Young (R,C,I-Olean) joined Mr. Lindquist,along with his friends and fam-ily, for a very special birthdaycelebration.

“Henry is most known to hisfamily, friends and neighbors for

his constant willingness to lenda hand to those in need. Sur-rounded by so many of his lovedones on Saturday, you couldtruly feel the remarkably posi-tive imprint he’s left through alifetime of hard work and gooddeeds,” said Senator Young.

“In spite of his age, Henryshows little sign of slowingdown and I can’t imagine he’llchange his philosophy any timesoon. He still drives every dayand his passion for working onengines and clocks was on fulldisplay when we talked.”

Mr. Lindquist was married tohis late wife Ellen Haines for 67years. The couple raised fivechildren together, Jon, Nancy,Andy, Lou Ann, and Amy and

today he is a loving grandfatherof five and great-grandfather ofeight.

After leaving high school, Mr.Lindquist worked in the oilfields for Messer Oil Corpora-tion for nearly 30 years beforeserving as School Building,Grounds and Transportation Su-pervisor for the Bolivar CentralSchool District until his retire-ment in June 1977. Among hisnotable achievements, Mr.Lindquist helped construct theFaith Bible Church in LittleGenesee, which held its firstservice in December 1971.

“Henry is a remarkable manand I extend my best wishes tohim and his family,” SenatorYoung said.

The AU choralprogram often uses the churchsanctuary for concerts as theacoustics are absolutely wonder-ful for choral singing, and thepipe organ often is needed forchoral masterworks. Unfortu-nately the quality of the piano inthe sanctuary is not up to per-formance level. AU chorus di-

rector Luanne Crosby and ac-companist Laurel Buckwalterare starting a campaign to raise$3,000 toward the purchase of agood quality acoustic piano.This piano will also be used bythe two churches (Seventh DayBaptist and Union University)that use the sanctuary.

The ideal piano for the spacewill be movable and smallenough so the accompanist cansee over it to follow the conduc-tor but with a full tone to supportthe chorus. The piano will be

hold a tuning and have a neweraction in good condition that canbe played expressively.

If you plan to attend the con-cert, your generous contributionwill be greatly appreciated. Ifyou cannot attend but value theAU choral program and want tohelp, please mail a contributionto Laurel Buckwalter at 5744East Valley Road, Alfred Sta-tion, NY 14803. Checks shouldbe made out to the Alfred Sev-enth Day Baptist Church withPiano Fund on the memo line.

CORNING—For many peo-ple in this city, the Corning Mu-seum of Glass is more like a palthan a museum. On March 20,CMOG opened its new contem-porary glass wing and thousandsstopped to see the ribbon cuttingand stroll through the expansiveelegance that shines under theglass roof of this admired com-munity member.

The new wing is not only ex-quisite in design and functionbut the staff of CMOG was gra-cious in every way. Admissionwas free all weekend as werecelebratory snacks and bever-ages and a legion of volunteerswas on hand to answer questionsand beam with pride over whattheir community has created.

The new wing is spaciousenough to allow 3 dimensionalworks to be viewed from allsides. There is room to step backor to lean forward. The light ofthe day filtered through the glassroof, reflecting on work andpeople.

For the grand opening, manyof the artists stood with theirwork answering questions andtelling what it meant to them,how they made it, what they are

doing now. That’s just one moreway that CMOG shows how it isa museum with a personality.

In keeping with the idea thatthis museum is a communitymember there is a page(http://glassapp.cmog.org/#/so-cial) specifically for visitors topost a photo of their favoriteimage. The images of personalconnections shows friends pos-ing with art to attractions, im-ages celebrating color or texture,of course, the many interestingreflections and shadows that amuseum full of glass, underglass can offer.

In keeping with the personal,my favorite was ContinuousMile (2006-2008) by Liza Lou.From a distance, it’s a large,coarse rope. Upon approaching,it’s a glittering landscape ofblack, glass, seed beads. Look-ing inward, it is a story of patienthands and many people in aworld thousands of miles away.

The rope is made of millionsof tiny, black glass beads sewnonto a continuous mile-long cot-ton rope, coiled into a circle. Inleaning over the glass and walk-ing around and peering andwondering, there seems to be notone bead out of line with the oth-ers.

Lou spent years working witha team of bead workers inKwaZulu-Natal, South Africabut she did more than createContinuous Mile. She listened tothe women talk, in the way thatwomen once talked as theyquilted in a cabin. She learnedabout their lives and taught themabout hers.

She employed them and did sowith the intent that the ropewould be created in a labor in-tensive, slow motion, mile longjourney, allowing time to reflectand to see changes in the livesinvolved in the project. Shemade a work of art that is asmuch story as it is glass, asmuch purpose and influence asit is visual.

The Corning Museum ofGlass is open most days of theyear. Children and teens are al-ways free and there is a signifi-cant discount for people livingwithin Allegany County.

(Continued from front page)School in Rochester had opened a special veteran’s group for “fel-lows like me,” so he attended and earned his high school diploma.

His chemistry teacher, who was from Canisteo, drove him to Al-fred, where he met Professor Kurt Ekdahl, whom he rates highly bothas a teacher and as a designer. He entered Alfred University as a Ce-ramic Design student, graduating four years later.

He was hired by Glidden Parker as a model and mold-maker, anddid limited design work for Alfred’s famous Glidden Pottery. He latertook a job at Alfred University (AU) and began a whole new career– teaching. He retired from AU in 1985 as an Associate Professor.

During his college studies, he met Norma Miller of Elmira, whowas another Design student, one year ahead of him in the samecourses. He smiled and said that they’ve now been married for sixty-three years, and had four children.

They enjoyed a very active retirement, traveling to Sri Lanka, Mo-rocco, Egypt, Central America, Brazil, Israel, and to consulting jobswithin the United States.

He also began a family ceramic business, New Frontiers, whichproduced, among other things, terra cotta burial urns and clocks, oneof which is cherished in my home.

The designers there also made molds to restore an angel on the cor-nice of Greene Hall on Main Street in Alfred.

Wally says, ”Life in general has been fairly good. We are saddenedby the loss of our number two son, Verne. My wife, Norma, will endher days in a close-by nursing home. But the unfortunate and thegood things give us strength to carry on. Where did the time go?”

The series known as the Bergen Forum wasbegun by Rich Bergen, who taught at the Univer-sity in the ’70s when he was inspired by learningof the gatherings that AU students in the 19th cen-tury were known to conduct in Alumni Hall to dis-cuss community issues. After Bergen’s death in1974, the University decided to continue the tra-dition in his name. Various faculty members havetaken on the coordinator duties since that time.

In January 2013, Craig andBecky Prophet travelled to thestate of Tamil Nadu in southernIndia, to teach art to students ina residential school called ShantiBhavan. The school—the namemeans “Haven of Peace” inHindi—educates some of India’spoorest children from pre-K toGrade 12.

The founder, Dr. MatthewGeorge in unabashed followingof the teachings of Ghandi-Ji,believes that the true way tochange India’s social structureand the economic status of manyIndians is to educate the poorestin order to have them give backto their families and their com-munities through their educa-tion.

“We found ourselves at ShantiBhavan for twelve weeks underthe auspices of an amazing or-ganization that has artists pro-vide people of all ages with thecreative and expressive outletsof art,” said Becky Prophet,“Artists Striving to End Poverty(ASTEP), challenged us to helpthe children of Shanti Bhavangrow in their understanding ofthe world and pride in them-selves,” she said.

“Our time there became anideal combination of two artists,who want to save the world,”she said, “We helped 200 ‘un-touchables’ come closer to un-stoppable in our twelve weeksojourn. Our lives are changed

I love Easter time! One of my favorite traditions is Easter eggcoloring, especially when you can get creative and make your owndyes from ingredients in your kitchen! There are two ways to do nat-ural egg dying; you can add the ingredients while boiling your eggs,or you can soak the egg in the dye once it is cooled overnight. I pre-fer dying while boiling because it makes a much more vibrant color.Try it for yourself! Below are some of my favorite dye colors.

NATURAL EGG DYINGHere’s What You Need:

*Local eggs- Alfred has an abundance of these!! (Rogue Carrot,Stearns, the neighbor down the road)*1T White vinegar (per 4c of water)*Natural dye ingredients- see below

Place eggs one layer thick in bottom of pot. Cover with roomtemperature water and vinegar. Add dye ingredients; bring to a boilfor 10 minutes. Cover and let sit until desired color is achieved.

Natural Dye Ingredients:*Violet- red onion skins, hibiscus tea or red wine*Blue- purple cabbage leaves, blueberries, purple grape juice*Green- spinach, kale or collard greens*Yellow- chamomile, citrus peels, carrot tops or turmeric*Orange- chili powder, paprika, or yellow onion skins*Pink- beets (pickled work best), or cranberries*Red- cherry juice, or raspberries*Brown- coffee, black tea

ALFRED–Members of the English and Humanities Departmentat Alfred State invite the public to a free spring poetry reading at 6p.m. Wednesday, April 8, in the Allegany Room of the Central Din-ing Hall. Come and enjoy music, desserts, and artwork, all createdby Alfred State students.

Faculty, staff, students, and community members are invited tobring either a favorite or an original poem to read. Staff membersof Ergo, a campus creative arts magazine, will read from their works.

ALFRED–Murray Deutsch, a first-generation child of Holocaustsurvivors, will speak at Alfred State at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 16, inthe small-gathering space in the Student Leadership Center.

Deutsch will talk about his family history, including pre-war, theHolocaust, and post-war lives of the Berkovics and Deutsch fami-lies. Many members of both his families perished in Auschwitz. Hisparents immigrated to the United States after spending two years ina displaced persons camp in Torino, Italy.

Deutsch resides in Dansville and is in private practice as a licensedclinical social worker. He is married to Karen Acomb Deutsch, thedirector of the Gunlocke Library in Wayland.

The talk falls on Yom Hashoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day.According to the U.S. Holocaust Museum’s website,www.ushmm.org, the internationally recognized date for HolocaustRemembrance Day corresponds to the 27th day of Nisan on the He-brew calendar and marks the anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Up-rising.

Refreshments will be served after the talk, which is jointly spon-sored by Alfred State and Hillel at Alfred, the Jewish students’ or-ganization at Alfred State and Alfred University.

ALFRED–Teenage girls from the Allegany County area won’thave to pay a cent to look like a million bucks this prom season,thanks to Alfred State’s Project Prom Dress Extravaganza.

Held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, April 11, at the Pioneer Cen-ter on the Alfred campus, the event allows attendees to select fromhundreds of new or lightly used prom dresses and take one homewithout any cost. People may also make donations that day, includ-ing dresses, shoes, and gear.

Unfortunately, last week’s story in the Alfred Sun included a con-tact e-mail address that was incorrect. For more information, readersshould contact Alyshia Zurlick, assistant director of the Office ofStudent Engagement, at [email protected].

Pictured is Olivia Ciesla, president of Delta Chi Omega, whichruns the Project Prom Dress Extravaganza every year, alongwith the Emerging Pioneer Leadership Program Gold Group.

"A Fairy Tale"Not so long ago, in a village

very near, there lived a happy,industrious, good-hearted peoplewho loved flowers. Their hillsand valleys, lawns and fields andwoods bloomed with a profusionof colors and kinds, both nativeand introduced. Wild or tame,the villagers loved them all.

As summer moved into fall,different flowers blossomed, andevery bush and tree blazed witha hundred thousand hues. Butthen came winter, and all theflowers died. The only colorsleft were brown and black andwhite. The people were sad, yetthey knew that all living thingsneed rest, so they brought a fewplants inside, and patientlybegan to wait for spring.

All through November andDecember the cold winds blewand the snow fell. The peoplehid in their houses, cheeringthemselves up with holidays andparties. January and Februarywere even colder. The snow fellas if it never would stop, and lifewas very hard. The villagersspirits were sinking. They had-n't seen any flowers in so longthat they had almost forgottenhow they looked and smelled.They felt sad and grew short-tempered with each other. Andstill the winter dragged on.

By March, things were gettingvery dismal indeed. The coldhad eased a little, and some ofthe snow melted on sunny days,but spring was still a long wayoff. The people were desperatefor a shred of color, a whiff offragrance, and felt as if theywould die if flowers didn't comesoon. And then a marvelousthing happened!

Some snowbirds carried wordto the Flower Fairy, in her warmsouthern winter home, of theplight of the village. She tookpity on the people in their mis-

ery, and decided to help them.She caused a crystal mansion tobe built at the edge of town, andset a hundred of her elves to fillit with every kind of flowers andfoliage. Then she invited all thepeople to come and enjoy thespectacle for three days.

They came in droves to crowdinto the mansion. It was warminside, and deliciously humid.They shed their heavy wintercoats and wandered the flower-decked halls, breathing deeply,and smiling from ear to ear.They praised the elves for alltheir hard work, and said nicethings to each other, and thesound of laughter rang through-out. Some of the halls werearranged in charming storybookscenes, with fountains, plasterbunnies with colored eggs, andsummer bird songs coming fromhidden speakers. Others heldnothing but row after row afterrow of plants in full bloom, intidal waves of scent and color.

The villagers were deliriouslyhappy. Many of them, havingfinished the tour, went back tostand in line, waiting to gothrough again. For three daysthey came to saturate theirsenses with the sights and smellsof the flowers they loved sodearly. Of course they knew itwasn't truly spring, but therespite from the bleak winter re-stored their good humor, andgave them the courage to wait alittle longer for the real thing.They were so grateful to theFlower Fairy, that she promisedto come back every year at thattime, with a preview of spring torenew their hopes. For manyyears, she kept her promise, andit made the harsh northern win-ters seem shorter.

I wish I could say that they alllived happily ever after, but evenin fairy tales, bad things happen.A man who hated flowers came

to live in the village. He rose toa position of power and, little bylittle, he persuaded other men inhigh offices that flowers wereuseless, silly things that took uptoo much space. One summerday, when nobody was payingattention, he called in the bull-dozers, and they smashed thecrystal mansion into a millionpieces. The Flower Fairy was soangry that she vowed never toreturn to the village again beforeMay.

The moral of this story is bestsummed up by the chorus fromJoni Mitchell's song, "Big Yel-low Taxi."

"Don't it always seem to go,That you don't know what You've got 'til it's gone?They paved paradiseAnd put in a parking lot."

Growing Up in AlfredBy JUDE FRECHETTE

Special to the Alfred Sun

Visiting artists perform improv,offer installation at AU Gallery

ALFRED–The Institute for Electronic Arts in the School of Art &Design at Alfred University (AU) hosted Sine Qua Non, an improv-isational performance featuring Brett Sroka and Jeremiah Cymerman,at 7 p.m. Wednesday, April 1, in the Robert C. Turner Gallery, McGeePavilion on the AU campus.

Developed by Sroka at the Institute for Electronic Arts at Alfredand the Vilnius Academy of Art, Nida Art Colony in Lithuania, SineQua Non is an improvisational dialogue between Cymernan, a clar-inetist, and Sroka. Cymerman’s performance was sampled andprocessed live by Sroka, making Cymerman, in effect, Sroka’s ac-companist, continuing through electronic abstraction and acoustic re-sponse. As the performance concluded, the sampled fragments slowlytook over, and continued to evolve through generative processing.

A discussion of the work by the artist followed the performance.The piece will continue as an installation in the Immersive Gallery,located in the McGee Pavilion, during normal gallery hours throughApril 4. More information and samples of the performance may befound on Sroka’s web site: http://www.brettsroka.com/sqn/

Dear Editor: On March 16 and 17 we presented ourproduction of The Mikado to two wonderful audiences.We’d like to thank all of the people who were so appre-ciative of our efforts. Actors “feed” on an audience’s re-sponse and put forth even greater effort. We have beenblessed with wonderfully loyal fans who attend all ourproductions and give us unwavering support. Two ofthese fans have especially hearty laughs that we look for-ward to hearing in our audiences. The week before ourplay these two people received anonymous postcardsthat said: The kids have worked very hard on the upcom-ing Mikado. Please try to control your laughter in theaudience. Not only are you a distraction to the kids butyou are extremely annoying to anyone unfortunateenough to sit near you. I’m sure you mean well butplease have some consideration. Thank you. We wereappalled—first, that anyone would have the nerve tothink one person could dictate the response of others;but most of all that anyone could be idiotic enough tothink that when you are doing comedy you don’t wantlaughter from your audience. Fortunately for us, our au-diences did not believe this. They gave us laughter andan overwhelming response that helped us give even bet-ter performances. The cast, crew, and directors greatlyvalue our audiences and especially our two hearty laugh-ing fans. Very truly yours, Ellen L. Shultz, Director ofDrama, Alfred-Almond Central School.

By LINDA STAIGERThis is the last of the Study in

Spiritual Maturity series…it’sbeen good, thought-provoking,thinking about how to grow inour faith. This began in the firstweek of Lent…a time of reflec-tion.

Easter is the Holiest day of theChristian Calendar and so wehave this 40 day season of Lentto prepare ourselves to celebratethis Holy Day. It’s a time to ex-amine our lives and get rightwith God—change and/or re-pent. We spoke of Perfectionwhich is getting serious aboutour sin, repenting and trying toeliminate sin from our lives.Deal with the sin in our lives andlet the Holy Spirit do His re-deeming work.

We spoke of being conformedand transformed into the like-ness of Christ. As we turn toGod and seek to follow Him asclosely as we can, the HolySpirit comes in and does this

����������� ������������������������������������������������� �������� ����������������������������������������������������� �������� ��� ����

transforming work in our lives.We talked of the role of the

church—it’s not to take care ofus, it’s for us to take care of oth-ers. The role is to reach out tothose outside the church, to besalt and light in our community,that they may experience God’sgrace through us.

Too many of us think that thechurch should be there to takecare of us—they don’t realizethat they ARE the church. Beingcomplete in Christ…prayer,Bible reading and study, fasting,fellowship..these put us in aplace where God can work in us,where the Holy Spirit will com-plete us.

This week we look at trialsand the role they fill in our spir-itual maturity. “We as believersshould expect to suffer as an in-evitable part of our calling. Tobelieve is not to evade suffering;it is to face it with new confi-dence and hope.”

When we were small and trou-

ble came our way, we went tosomeone who was bigger,stronger to help us…climbed upon Daddy’s lap or went intoMommy’s hugs. This is God,our Father—He is the refugewhich grants us asylum, safeharbor from the storms of life.God allows trials in our lives forthat very reason. To bring uscloser to Him.

Trials affirm our adoption—we are His. Trials are the priceof godliness...no discipline ispleasant at the time, but it pro-duces a harvest of peace. Trialsdevelop trust..we need to trust inGod. When you suffer, commityourself back to God and con-tinue to be faithful—He will seeyou through.

Trials develop character. Suf-fering produces perseverance,character and hope.

Trials deepen fellowship. “Ifone part suffers, every part suf-fers with it; if one part is hon-ored, every part rejoices with it.”I Corinthians 12:26.

Trials draw us to the Lord.Here we are..full circle. Wedon’t like seasons of suffering,but sometimes we need them togrow to that next level. And apart of growing to spiritual ma-turity is allowing God to dothose things we might not like,but that we need.

So, come…next Sunday—Easter. Pastor Steve’s last wor-ship service with us. Share thistime with us..all are welcome!Breakfast, 8:30-9:30, Worship at10:30. Can I hear an “Amen”?

ABOUT seventy Wellsville area residents gathered at the David A. Howe Library for a brain-storming session on changes they’d like to see in their community. (Elaine Hardman Photo)

EGRET droppings on the Brooks’ RV. Is that any way to treata bird lover like Betsy Brooks?

By ELAINE HARDMANAlfred Sun Reporter

W E L L S V I L L E — T h eWellsville Development Corpo-ration hoped to gather a few peo-ple and hear their suggestionsfor change in Wellsville. Theyhad about 70 people pile into theexhibition room of the David A.Howe Library and heard ideas,opinions and memories.

Neil Benedict set the rules fora brainstorming session andSpencer Peavey took on the roleof moderator while a crew ofrecorders made notes on largepads.

Nancy Monroe started byreminiscing over the old, huge,and much-loved WellsvilleCommunity Outdoor pool.When the highway went in, thepool was removed and, in itsplace, a pool was built in the oldBrooklyn Middle School. Manyin the group remembered hoursin the pool and felt that the com-munity needs that pool back.

Since it was a brainstormingsession, the idea expanded to in-cluding a warm water pool fortherapeutic use as part of a well-ness center with art therapy andnature study courses that wouldall work with conventional med-ical services.

Skip Sullivan from Alfred

ALMOND—Notice is herebygiven that a special meeting ofthe Board of Education of Al-fred-Almond Central Schooldistrict will occur on April 22,2015 at 8:00 a.m. in the BoardRoom of the Alfred-AlmondCentral School.

NOTICE is given that thisspecial meeting is called to dis-cuss and vote on the GSTBOCES 2015-16 AdministrativeBudget and to elect (4) fourBOCES Board members and actupon any matters which mayproperly be brought before theBoard of Education in the samemanner and to the same effect asif said Board of Education wereconvened in regular session.

It seems that every winter wehave a ‘bird of the trip.’ Lastyear is was the Roseate Spoon-bill, because almost every daywhen I took my morning walk atLetulle Park across the roadfrom our RV park in Bay City, Iwould feast my eyes on from 2to 14 spoonbills in all their glo-rious pink plumage.

Since spoonbills feed on smallfish, shrimp, mollusks, snailsand insects and the spoonbillswere there every day, there musthave been a major change in theconditions at the small lake inthe park.

Actually, sometime betweenlast winter and this winter, therewas a major cleanup of the parkwhich included draining thelake.

Whatever they had to do to re-move all the trash that had beenthrown in the lake over the re-cent years, it must have changedthe food source of the spoon-bills, because I never saw onethere for the almost three monthswe were staying at the RV park.

I did see several near Surfsidebeach as we were driving to BayCity in January, and severalmore on a distant sandbar atRollover Pass on the way home.

Another winter the bird of thetrip was my first ever CanyonWren which I watched singwithin close range in Rio GrandeVillage in Big Bend NationalPark.

After a few minutes of incred-ibly beautiful song, a Road Run-ner darted in and snatched thewren and proceeded to beat it todeath on a rock! Not all ‘birds ofthe trip’ are totally happy expe-riences!

Other birds of the winter tripswere Couch’s Kingbird at BayCity, my first Crested Caracaraat a chicken farm near Riviera inSouth Texas, my first VermillionFlycatcher in Castalon camp-ground in Big Bend, a pair ofPainted Buntings at Bay City,my first Tricolored Blackbird ata rest stop in California andmany others.

I had one ‘lifer’ for me thiswinter … and it was right at myfeeder outside the RV window.At first I thought it was somespecies of western oriole, butwhen I looked more closely, Isaw it had a grosbeak bill. It wasa very handsome adult maleBlack-headed Grosbeak, myfirst ever!

But it didn’t make my ‘bird ofthe 2015 winter trip’ list! Thathonor went to the Great Egretbut not just one particular GreatEgret but the interesting flockwe had at Bert’s RV Park mostof the winter.

Smiley loved to run along theirrigation canal behind the parkand for some reason one Great

Egret started flying along thecanal alongside of Smiley. A fewdays later, two more GreatEgrets came in and began doingthe same thing.

The numbers of egrets in-creased until there were 13 ofthem. There was an old railroadtrestle across the canal about 300yards down the canal and afterthe chase, all the egrets wouldline up on the trestle and waituntil Smiley started walkingback, at which time the egretswould fly back up the canal.

(I spent a long time trying toget a photo of all 13 on the tres-tle, but they would fly just as Igot within range of a decentphoto).

Smiley’s path along the canal.I know the egrets knew where

Smiley lived, and after a whileone or two would come and siton the top of our RV! It was asif they wanted him to come outand play!

We could hear their sharp toe-nails scratching the roof of theRV. If Smiley stayed inside,eventually they would get tiredof waiting and leave. But theyalways defecated on the RV roofand overhead window as theyleft!

The egrets never posed longenough in any one place for meto get a good photo, but I did geta photo of the RV front overheadwindow they decorated!

By now, it was already thefirst week in March. Stay tunedas Dick makes a major decisionabout our return trip to Alfred!

State said that the college pays$250 per hour for their hockeyteam to practice on the ice inOlean. If Wellsville had ahockey rink, that money couldstay in Wellsville.

Rich Rawley brought up park-ing, always a topic of interestand ire in Wellsville. He sug-gested building a small parkingramp or changing the street toallow for diagonal parking. Healso suggested that people whoseem to accept parking fines ona regular basis be charged dou-ble if they are ticketed on con-secutive days and then tripled iffined on a third day, etc. The re-quest to remove all parking me-ters murmured through theroom.

Barb Hetzel thought therecould be a commercial enter-prise set up to bottle springwater that that some people haveon their properties and market itas “Wellsville Water.” Bill Dib-ble is interested in creating amap for running and walkingroutes in the area. Tagging ontothis idea was a walking map ofhistoric buildings.

It was suggested that all townand village board meetings, andeven meetings such as this groupbrainstorming session, be held ina school building so that they areaccessible to people with mobil-ity issues.

QR codes were proposed.Each building on Main Street,and side streets, could have atleast one QR code in the win-dow. There are many destina-tions for these QR codes: Thewebsite or Facebook page forthe store operating there. A pageshowing the history of the par-ticular building. A realtor’s list-ing for the sale or rental of thestore.

If a store front is empty, thewindows could be painted byarea artists and the QR couldtake phones to that person’swebsite. An empty store frontcould be used to display postersor artifacts about upcomingevents, with the QR link to thatwebsite. It was also suggestedthat the upstairs windows ofapartments could have curtainshung or painted in them so they

look occupied.Ken Lotter suggested that

ping pong or shuffleboard or oldmovies be offered to kids at thefire hall. Later in the conversa-tion, Kieth Chase said that thatYouth for Christ (in the oldChristian Temple) has a basket-ball court and more and is open2 days a week after school. Theconversation identified a need tobetter inform the public aboutfacilities and events.

Major events were discussedand with the idea that Wellsvillehave an event every month theway Hammondsport does. Thereare already several events suchas the Balloon Rally, FishingDerby, and Allegany ArtisansStudio Tour. Some would like toadd fireworks on July 4, a pa-rade on St. Patrick’s Day and afew more to fill out the year.

It was proposed that theseevents and changes all focus onmaking downtown Wellsvillethe destination and that moreBed and Breakfast facilities areneeded to bring people to partic-ipate and stay. Some B&Bscould offer packages with sport-ing or art activities.

The community garden cameup. Andrew Harris said that itwill cost $2000 to put waterservice on that lot and that theowner is willing to grant longterm use to the community gar-den. At this point, not muchmore will happen without water.The community garden is look-ing for a service group interestedin making that happen. AndrewHarris can be contacted at Sun-set Farms.

In summary, ideas were clas-sified as something that might bedone soon or deserves lookinginto or may be a long range proj-ect. The WDC called for volun-teers and collected informationto create an email list of support-ers.

Mary Kate Cole thankedeveryone for attending andasked them all to get involved.To share more ideas or to volun-teer, visit the website: Wellsvil-leAreaChamber.com or call585-593-5080. To post an eventor find one visit the website:www.DestinationWellsville.com

HITS AND MISSES:Big-Time "congrats" are in order for Raegan Ryan as she has

been named the National Christian Athletic Association/2014-15Womens' Basketball Player of the Year! The senior paced herCedarville Lady Jackets team to a (27-4) mark and was named theGreat Midwest Athletic Conference Player of the year as well. Ryanwas the leading scorer and assist person on her squad as they qual-ified for the NCAA tournament. A fitting end to a great career!

It is "Final Four" time in the NCAA Division I men's basket-ball tournament with undefeated Kentucky still leading the wayalong with the likes of Wisconsin, Michigan State and Duke. TheWildcats (38-0) held off Notre Dame in a classic regional final toadvance, the Badgers finally put away Arizona in a battle of heavy-weights, the Spartans nipped Louisville in overtime to move on andDuke pulled away from the 'Zags to land in the final grouping oncemore. Legendary coaches, traditional powers and a team shootingfor destiny. Of the teams left in the tournament would have to saythat Wisconsin is the only one that can beat UK. The Badgers havethe size and shooters to give Kentucky fits but they'll need to playas well as they did against Arizona to pull out the win. Coach Izzoof MS always has his team ready this time of the year. They willtake on Duke and Coach K. Sticking with Kentucky but definitelythink the Badgers can win. Whoever survives this encounter shouldbe favored on Monday nite. Have to go with the Blue Devils overMichigan State and setting up the Duke-UK championship! Hmmm.The depth of UK, and size, will be too much for the smaller Dukesquad. Kentucky prevails (yuk).

If Kentucky becomes an undefeated (40-0) champion, wherewill they stand with the great NCAA teams of all-time? Perhaps thebest college squad of all-time is the UCLA team (29-1) of 1968when Lew Alcindor was the top Bruin. Others would have to be theBill Walton UCLA team (30-0) of '72, Christian Laettner and Duke(34-2) in '92 plus Indiana (32-0) from 1976. Hard to compare dif-ferent eras but the Alcindor-Walton teams could easily dominatetoday, Indiana had future pro players galore and the Duke trio ofLaettner-Hill-Hurley was pretty solid. At (40-0) Kentucky wouldhave to be in the conversation.

The NIT men's last four grouping was Stanford-Old Dominionand Miami-Temple. Predicted champ: Stanford and Coach JohnnyDawkins (Duke) over the Miami Hurricanes.

Half the women's NCAA Division I "Final Four" was set as ofSunday past as it'll be Notre Dame and South Carolina squaring offthis weekend and then probably UConn and Maryland on the otherside. Sticking with UConn over Notre Dame in the championshipgame. UConn was at Albany in their regional. The weekend gamesare in Tampa.

Wisconsin-Stevens Point grabbed another NCAA D3 men's bas-ketball championship trophy as they topped Augustana, 70-54 towin the title. UW-SP also won the championship in 2004-05-10.Thomas More of Kentucky won the women's title.

Eric Musselman is the new head coach of the men's basketballprogram at Nevada. He used to be a regular on the Jim Rome Showwhen it was in the Rochester market and always enjoyed his bas-ketball insight. Believe "Hilly" Moses knows him!

Steve Lavin is out as the St. John's men's basketball coach andChris Mullin is potentially in line to take over that spot. Mullin, theformer St. John's great, had a solid NBA career and was on the orig-inal Dream Team. Lavin, the ex-UCLA coach.

And former UCLA head coach Ben Howland is now off to Mis-sissippi State. Howland had success at Pitt before heading west tocoach the Bruins, led UCLA to a bunch of "Final Fours" and is nowback in the coaching ranks.

The Dugout continued...'Shaq in the Orlando Magic Hall of Fame?

Honor him after he bolts for the LA Lakers?The RIT Tigers pulled off a major upset in the

NCAA Division I hockey tournament as they up-ended #1 Minnesota State, 2-1 in their regionalsemi-final before being blasted by Nebraska-Omaha, 4-0.

The Rochester Knighthawks (7-4) are in sec-ond place in the East Division of the NLL indoorpro lax league. The Toronto Rock (Korn) haveclinched the division. Edmonton (7-4) leads theway in the West Division.

Katy Herbst (Webster Schroeder) of SUNYNew Paltz will play professional volleyball in thePremier Volleyball League (PVL). The all-SUN-YAC player will be on the roster of the Iroquois-Empire Volleyball Association (IREVA). The teamhas already enjoyed success in a Boston tourney.She is the younger sister of Jess Herbst, whoplayed soccer at the University of Vermont andregularly joins 3L and myself at our Indian Lakesummer retreat!

Daughter Lauren competed in the PhillyHalf-Marathon over the weekend, as did StephenBaker, and had a time of 1:45:43. 3L was 716thoverall, 260th female and 61st in her division. Re-sults were not available for Baker but I am happyto report he did indeed finish the race and the for-mer UPenn soccer player was able to hook-up with3L later on in the day.

Major League Baseball starts next week.Yikes! The NBA and NHL playoffs haven't evenstarted yet but the MLB season will be underway.In the AL, division winners will be: Baltimore,Detroit and Oakland. Wild cards to Boston andCleveland. Over in the NL, division winners willbe: Washington, St. Louis and Los Angeles. Wildcards to Pittsburgh and San Francisco. The 'Natsand Dodgers might be the best two teams in all ofbaseball. Will go with Washington over Clevelandin the World Series. "Hair" Torrey and the 'Tribe!

Speaking of the "Traveling Sports Fan" fromAlmond, the ex-cager at A-A was off to Clevelandand Syracuse over the extended weekend past tak-ing in NCAA tournament games.

Wrapped up a pretty good vacation week inLeesburg, Florida. Didn't get a chance to golf withBob Baker, which was disappointing, but other-wise did accomplish most there. Golfed at theMount Dora GC in the Molokai League Big Daleused to run and later at the sweet CC of MountDora with Len Stillings (Vermont) and a couple ofother guys from the league. Still know about 10-12 golfers there but no Andy Laramie again thisyear? Coffee one morning with Tony & GinnySchon as my mom and Don see them often. Greatseeing them again. Dinner at Jeremiah's on Fridayas brother Steve & Dee joined us (late). Lunchwith Big D and Janis King the next day at Ram-shackle's. Plus my standard "to do" list from mymom! And, a profitable nite at the Molokai IceCream social. A solid two-week vacation inFlorida.

Almost time for The Masters. Go DUKE !!

In the second quarter organ-ized mayhem ensued, with theteams combining for eight goals.The Ducks were first on theboard to grab their first lead ofthe day.

Woodshowed off his athletic prowessin front of the net, spinning off aDucks defender while ripping ashot from low to high, meetingthe twine to grab the lead for theSaxons, 4-3.

Only two and half minuteslater Stevens knotted the gameagain on a man-up goal. Never-theless, Lynch found the back of
