Andover children such as (from left) Carly and Chelsea Frei, Josh Riemer and Cody and Sierra Heneghan will be able to go trick-or-treating on Halloween night. They are also ready for Sanborn Elementary's Spooky Fun Fair on Saturday, Oct. 25.

Selectmen: No trick on HalloweenTrick-or-treat hours: Oct. 31 from 5-7:05 p.m.Mom at center of

candy controversyThe big brouhaha over moving trick-or-

treating hours in Andover to the day before Halloween put a local e-mail-writing mom at the center of the controversy.

It was Ellen Davidson of Chestnut Street, a mother of two, who wrote an e-mail to her "routing list made up of mostly Bancroft School people.” She and her husband have a

fifth-grade student there and a seventh- grader at Doherty Mid­dle School.

Her e-mail was meant to be amusing, asking readers, “Is our candy corn in dan­ger?...Today, we are told to move Hal­loween; tomorrow we will be told to move Thanksgiving to a Tuesday to prevent

Andoverites from joining that traffic hassle on the Mass Pike. I say NO,” she wrote.

“Next thing I know, there are two televi­sion trucks in my driveway,” said Davidson, noting that the e-mail went much farther than Bancroft Elementary School and ended up being excerpted in a Boston newspaper on Monday. Television crews appeared later that day.

But, just like candy com, the controversy was short and sweet. On Monday night, Andover selectmen quickly voted to keep trick-or-treating hours on Friday, Oct. 31 from 5 to 7:05 p.m. Davidson is enjoying the end result.

“It was democracy at work,” she said of the vote. “E-mails were flying and people gave input. Selectmen responded and there was a quick resolution.”

ELLEN DAVIDSON,

IN AN E-MAIL

By Andrea GregoryA push to move trick-or-treating to

Thursday, Oct. 30, the day before Hal­loween, flew off the selectmen’s table as quickly as a witch on a broomstick with a unanimous vote to keep the treat-giving hours on the actual holiday.

Selectmen set the trick-or-treat time for Friday, Oct. 31 from 5 to 7:05 p.m.. the same time that North Andover kids will take to the streets in costume.

Andover Police Chief Brian Pattullo had recommended that selectmen set trick-or-treat hours for the day before Hal­loween as some other communities are doing, including Lawrence and Methuen. Pattullo has said there would be less traffic on Thursday, making for a safer environ­ment. But, once word got out that the selectmen were considering moving Hal­loween hours to the day before, the select­

men were flooded with e-mails, they said Selectmen voted 5-0 on Monday to keep the trick-or-treating hours on Halloween night.

“This definitely brought as much enthusiasm and degradation as any other issue,” said Selectman Brian Major.

“Some of them bordered on rude and inconsiderate, and by the way, there was a lot of wrong information,” said Selectman Ray Hender.

The selectmen held up a stack of print­ed e-mails.

Most of the discussion at the meeting was light-hearted, and the topic was launched with Selectman Chairman John Hess brandishing a Halloween toy that made a spooky rattling sound.

“This has become much bigger than it should have,” said Hess prior to Monday

More layoffs seen for townSelectmen reject early retirement, keep projects

By Andrea Gregory

and Meir RindeTown Manager Buzz

Stapczynski said he will probably need to lay off 15 workers by next July to reduce fiscal year 2005 expenses by about $500,000. The school administration, which laid off 29 teachers and several other workers earlier this year, will also have to fur­ther reduce the number of employees on its payroll, he said.

Stapczynski had hoped selectmen would soften the

blow of job cuts by approv­ing an early retirement incentive on Monday night that could have enticed as many as 30 employees to leave their jobs. But the consensus of the selectmen and Finance Committee was that Stapczynski did not have hard facts to back his claim that the move would save any money - let alone $500,000.

“Assume, chance, if, unknown, uncertain," were the words most commonly used during the discussion, noted Ted Teichert, select­

man. “I’m just not going to take a gamble that this is going to work.”

“This is an estimated guesstimate on who we think would take it," said Stapczynski. He said he believed money would be saved.

“We thought the savings, as presented, were overly optimistic,” said Joanne Marden, Finance Commit­tee chairwoman. “We felt that really, a compelling case for this hadn't been made.”

Youth Services wants move to Old Town HallBy Andrea Gregory

For Nate Hass, walking the quiet hallways of Town Offices to reach Andover Youth Ser­vices is not a big deal. But the same cannot be said for all of the youth in Andover, some of whom are discouraged by the official location, he said.

That's why Bill Fahey, AYS director, wants to move youth services to Old Town Hall on Main Street. Andover Youth Services is currently located on the third floor of Town Offices on Bartlet Street.

“A lot of kids are just more nervous to come up here (to the current location). They think it would be weird.” said Hass, 14. “A lot of my friends wouldn’t come in.”

So the possibility of relocat­ing youth services to Old Town Hall, also known as the Town House, excites Hass.

“It’s less of a serious envi­ronment," he said. “It should definitely happen. We should definitely move into that build­ing. A lot more people will come in and a lot more ideas will come in.”

According to Hass, part of the problem is employees in Town Offices are trying to get work done, and, he admits, a loud game of foosball has been known to disrupt nearby work­ers.

“We’re outside, just having a good time, and people come out and say ‘this is a place of work,’” said Emily Cummings, 15, who frequents the youth service space at Town Offices.

According to the kids, hang­ing out downtown is already a popular activity, so moving youth services there would make the department seem more accessible to kids. The downtown space also might provide more room for youth services.

“If there’s a larger space more people would go and they wouldn't be so scared of the people at Town Offices,” said Cummings.

Fahey said if officials agree to let youth services move to Old Town Hall, it could double the 600 square feet they are cur­rently using.

“It could be a viable site for us, more visible to the public, more centralized," said Fahey. “It would just help us to be more a part of the community. I think it would be taking a build­ing and putting it to good use. The main thing is just really being out there in front of the community,”

After leaving group home, jail, man back on streetsBy Ben Heilman

As the weather turns colder, Harold Marsh - a homeless man who has been a conspicuous presence downtown for the past year - is back living on the streets of Andover.

Marsh left an Andover group home in August for reasons of his own and it is not clear whether he will move indoors as the weather gets colder.

Marsh was arrested last Friday for breaking a no trespassing order at a Shawsheen Plaza business. Papa Gino’s. He has been treated for mental illness in the past and arrested several times on non-violent charges.

Marsh, 50, was kneeling on the side­walk outside CVS Pharmacy on Tues­day after picking up his belongings at the Andover police station, he said. He said his case was tried on Monday and a judge threw it out. Steve O’Connell, J

spokesperson for District Attorney Jonathan Blodgett, said this week there are cur­rently no charges pend­ing against Marsh.

“He (the judge) said,‘Stay out of Papa Gino’s,'” said Marsh.The restaurant had complained of Marsh's loitering to Andover Police in the past and eventually took out a no trespassing order on him.

Marsh called Andover Police “rea­sonable friendly" but said, “When you’re arrested, you don't like it at all.” Marsh spent the weekend at the Middle- ton House of Corrections and said it was “pretty awful.”

Marsh started spending his days and nights in Andover at least a year ago when he began loitering in downtown businesses and was found sleep­ing behind a Main Street business. Marsh stayed outdoors overnight in sub-zero temperatures in December and Janu­ary.

Interested Andover officials tried to help Marsh last winter, but he refused assistance.

Shortly after an article about Marsh ran in the Townsman last January, he was contacted by Massachusetts Department of Mental Health workers and given a

Last Wednesday's storm not only knocked out power at three schools, but gave this tree on Bartlet Street a good wallop, too.

Parents: No redistricting againSeek other solution to some schools being overcapacity

Wednesday windstorm

Bach explains early school closing

By Ben HeilmanIf Brenda O' Brien, principal of High Plain Ele­

mentary School, gets her way, none of her stu­dents will be redistricted. O'Brien said High Plain Elementary parents feel the same way.

Reacting to School Committee discussions on solving High Plain Elementary’s problem with overcrowding, O'Brien said High Plain families want to try to make their current space work before turning to any redistricting plan. High Plain Elementary opened 13 months ago.

"Our parents are very, very concerned about our kids being redistricted again,” said O’Brien. O'Brien said letters will go home to parents and the matter will he addressed at High Plain’s November PTO meeting.

Andover High School is also handling more students than it was designed to hold as part of its recent building project. School Committee mem­ber Art Barber said kids are having trouble navi­gating crowded hallways to get to class on time. “It looks like Route 128 in the morning." he said.

The School Committee is encouraging High

Plain Elementary' and Andover High families to discuss creative possibilities to solve the enroll­ment problems at the schools.

Two weeks ago, Superintendent Claudia Bach suggested forming a task force with representa­tion from every school to study the problem of projected over-enrollments at AHS. current over­enrollments at High Plain and possible over­enrollments at South Elementary. At this week’s meeting. School Committee Chairwoman Tina Girdwood said she didn't believe such a large group of people should be involved. She suggest­ed the school administration could solve the prob­lem.

Girdwood and member Dick Collins both sup­ported the townwide redistricting two years ago. which resulted in the new High Plain Elementary School opening at capacity last year. They contin­ued to support that decision at Tuesday’s commit­tee meeting. "Despite where we are now, 1 think it worked rather well,” said Girdwood.

“This is an inevitable problem; it isn’t incom­petence in any way,” said Collins.

shed light on her decision to send West Middle School and Andover High School students home early on Wednesday, Oct. 15. Wind storms knocked out power in parts of Andover, affecting those two schools and Sanbom Elementary School that morning. Sending kids home caused difficulties for some families, since many parents were at work when their chil­dren were released.

Bach said Mass Electric assured her before 7 a.m. - as she sat in the dark of her own home - that electricity would be

restored to the schools.As late as 8:30 a.m.. Bach

said she was still being told the problem would be resolved. But because many of the school sys­tem's bus drivers have other jobs, she had to make her deci­sion by 9 a.m., to be sure that the drivers would be available to drive the students home. Bach also said she decided Io send Andover High and West Middle students home because there were no lights in the bathrooms and the schools could not serve kids a hot lunch.

Bach said she understood that her decision would cause trouble for families. “The last

thing in the world 1 would choose to do is release children from school early,” she said.

At Sanborn Elementary, back-up generators kept the electricity running and kids remained at school.

Andover High School’s gen­erator had a water-related prob­lem and failed to come on, said Bach. School Committee Art Barber said he wanted answers on why the AHS generator failed. He said the generator is only needed in bad weather, so it shouldn’t be prone to such prob­lems. Bach said Joe Piantedosi, plant and facilities director, was looking into the matter.

night's meeting. “I don’t think we would need to change it. Certainly, traditionally it’s been Oct. 31.”

“But this year we're going to move Thanksgiving to Fri­day.” joked Major, at one point.

Among those residents to voice their opinions on trick- or-treating hours were Shane Kearney, 13, and lan Kearney, 11, of 86 Poor St., both stu­dents at West Middle School.

The Kearney brothers left with a sense of satisfaction after witnessing the unani­mous call to keep the holiday trick-or-treating on Oct. 31. “You get to stay up later,” when the holiday is celebrated on a Friday, said Ian Kearney.

Already the two boys are looking forward to the day after Halloween - a Saturday they can spend eating candy, instead of a school day where they must wake up early to catch the bus.

“They shouldn’t change it. They shouldn't change a holi­day,” said Fran Kearney, the boys' mother.

Situation seen as 'emblematic’■ HOMELESSContinued from page I

place to live in a group home in town, said Marsh. Marsh said he enjoyed living there, hut left the home in August for reasons he couldn't articulate.

Lester Blumberg, Chief of Staff for Massachusetts Depart­ment of Mental Health was unfamiliar with the details of Marsh’s situation. He said DMH needed more resources, but if Marsh left the home by his own will, there is no way to force him to live there. “1 can't comment on whether this case is a resource issue. (Marsh) is certainly emblematic." he said.

Homelessness is an issue that affects most Massachusetts towns and cities more than it affects Andover. Carol Malone, policy director for Human Ser­vices at Andover state Sen. Sue Tucker's office, said that men­tal health services were under­funded by $13 million this year. “Mental health has been hit pretty hard." she said.

Caritas Holy Family Hospi­tal, where Marsh was taken at least once last winter to be examined, closed its mental health facilities this year.

But if housing is offered to Marsh and he turns it down, there isn't anything the state can do unless he becomes a danger to himself or others. "We don't have a mechanism in Massachusetts to force people to live where they don't want," said Blumberg.

Harold Marsh, a homeless man who has spent many days in Andover during the past year, is again living on the street, after choosing to leave a group home in town. He was recent­ly released from jail after being charged on a warrant for tres­passing at a local eatery.

Downtown developer convicted of witness tampering in N.H.DiNapoli, owner of Musgrove Building, serves 20 days

Prior to his conviction, DiNapoli was wrapped up in a civil suit filed against him by Dobson and Pinci law firm. The firm was suing DiNapoli for alleged unpaid legal fees. The trial took place in July 2001.

According to court docu­ments, Dobson and Pinci intend­ed to call Tim Ferris, a former employee of DiNapoli, to testify against DiNapoli.

According the evidence pre­sented by the state, this is what allegedly happened:

Following the first day of the trial, DiNapoli and Ferris had dinner. DiNapoli asked Ferris if he would testify on his behalf regarding DiNapoli’s under­standing of the events and DiNapoli offered $2,000 to $3,000 cash. Red Sox tickets, and future employment in exchange for the testimony. Though Ferris told him he was too busy to testify, he agreed to talk with him again.

The next day Ferris called the plaintiff's attorneys. They took the information to the judge who then declared a mistrial.

As a result, DiNapoli was charged with witness tampering, a felony. Jn the criminal trial, Ferris said if he had gone along with DiNapoli’s request he would have been lying.

DiNapoli’s lawyer argued that DiNapoli had merely offered the money to Ferris to compensate him for his time. Being involved in the civil trial could have taken 20 hours of Ferris' time, according to infor­

By Andrea GregoryBig time land owner Antonio

DiNapoli, of 65 Central St., spent time in a New Hampshire House of Corrections this sum­mer after being convicted of wit­ness tampering.

DiNapoli was sentenced to 12 months in the Hillsborough House of Corrections, but had all but 30 days of his sentence continued for three years. His time behind bars was served in August. In addition, DiNapoli was slapped with a year of pro­bation. a $3,000 fine and 100 hours of community service.

According to DiNapoli’s New Hampshire lawyer, Paul Hodes with the law offices of Shaheen & Gordon, only 20 days of his sentence was actual­ly served and the courts agreed to let DiNapoli serve his time in August so it would be “the least inconvenient" for his client.

“It's never a good time,” admitted Hodes.

DiNapoli is the owner of sev­eral recognizable properties in Andover such as the Musgrove Building in Elm Square, the Nathan Frye Complex on North Main Street, a building and parking lot off Post Office Avenue, a two-family home on South Main Street, and two properties on Central Street.

According to Steve Colyer, Andover planning director, DiNapoli has only been pur­chasing land in Andover for about five years and currently does not have any proposals before town boards.

mation in DiNapoli’s summary of the case. Court files show that DiNapoli’s lawyer noted Ferris makes $100 to $150 per hour, which he argued accounted for the $2,000 to $3,000 offer.

“Following his lawyer’s advice Mr. DiNapoli talked to the witness,” said Hodes.

Hodes did not represent DiNapoli during either the crim­inal or civil trial, and said he began representing him when the criminal case against DiNapoli was in the process of winding down, but before he went to jail this summer.

“Unfortunately a choice was made for (DiNapoli) not to testi­fy. He did not get to tell his side of the story." said Hodes.

Hodes said DiNapoli’s previ­ous legal advisor told him it was acceptable to pay witness expenses, and then testified in the criminal case. As for the Red Sox tickets, “that was a casual thing that happened at the end of a conversation," said Hodes.

When asked if he was pursu­ing action against DiNapoli’s former lawyer, Hodes said, “It would not be appropriate as something for me to comment on at this time.”

When asked if DiNapoli would want to comment now, his lawyer said, “I doubt it."

“He is very disappointed in the outcome of the matter,” said Hodes. “There was nothing in his mind that he meant inappro­priately in any way. I believe this is the first time he ever had criminal trouble.”

Local Voice of the Faithful groups become one bodyMass of Rededication as,group plans to continue workBy Andrea Gregory

The Voice of the Faithful groups at three local Catholic Churches are joining forces to create a stronger Voice of the Faithful affiliate and coordi­nate their efforts. Though a settlement between the Archdiocese of Boston and sexual abuse vic­tims was finalized this week, members say their work is not finished.

A Mass will be held at St. Michael’s in North Andover on Wednesday, Oct. 29 at 7 p.m. to cel­ebrate the Voice of the Faithful’s one year anniversary and the merger of local groups that will create a 250-member Greater Lawrence branch.

During a difficult time in the Catholic Church, when the priest sexual abuse scandal surfaced, many individuals were finding it difficult to fully support the Church. The Voice of the Faithful emerged to welcome Catholics suffering or strug­gling in their relationship with the church.

Almost a year has passed since Andover Catholics established their own VOTF chapter in what has grown to become a national organiza­tion. JoAnne Nowak, of Fossen Way, was among those to bring Voice of the Faithful to the St. Robert Bellarmine Parish in Andover.

“There are a lot of reasons for the celebration now,” she said. “As an organization, we still have a lot of work to do. A lot of people think with a new bishop and the settlements, it’s over. It’s not over.”

According to Nowak, it is a time for celebra­tion, but it will never be a time to forget the sins and suffering that took place. She admits she was among those who first sought out the group as a place to vent and channel her anger.

“People initially joined out of anger. I was either going to leave (the church) or be a part of the solution. We are part of the change that is hap­pening with the church,” she said.

She said the initial anger among members has calmed and the mission is to seek positive changes and prevent another abuse scandal from ever happening again. She said part of the preven­tion is remembering that it happened.

“The pain and suffering of the victims doesn’t end with a payment,” she said. “And I can’t let people forget that."

Emilie Gilbert, of Chestnut Street, has been active with Voice of the Faithful, helping to seek out and participate in part of the solution.

“Even in our parish, we’ve seen some structur­al changes start to happen,” she said.

She attended training classes for abuse preven­tion and awareness to offer certification to clergy, staff and volunteers in the church. The certifica­tion is mandated by the Boston Archdiocese and those who do not attend a session will no longer by eligible to serve the church after Dec. 31.

Criminal background checks are now adminis­tered and will need to be resubmitted every year for clergy, staff, parish council and volunteers.

“It helps with their healing to know these types of things are being done,” said Gilbert, of abuse victims. “I am prayerful and hopeful there is more change to come.”

She said the recent past of the Catholic Church may be “ugly,” but ignoring it or forgetting it will not make it disappear.

“If we don’t look at it, we could be living it. It’s when people start to look at it and communi­cate that it will end,” she said.

The move would be tempo­rary while the long-awaited youth center is built in West Andover.

“It’s not like we’re moving in for 20 years,” said Fahey. "It's one of those ideas that seems to make sense, but there’s probably more than meets the eye and we would just like to talk about it,” said Fahey. “I think there would have to be some serious discus­sion around it.”

FinCom, selectmen don’t see cost savings from early retirement■ BUDGETContinued from page I

Marden said the Finance Committee looked at the num­bers and savings before voting 5- 2 against offering the early retirement option.

“We didn’t come up with any savings,” she said, adding the cost of implementing the pro­gram could pose an additional burden to the town. “You may have to eliminate a position just to pay the cost of this program.”

“I question the motive behind this. I think it is a political one,” said Don Robb, of 36 York St. “This allows us to do business as usual, but it does not have us rethink the way we do business in Andover.”

“This does give us an oppor­tunity to thin from the top,” said Stapczynski. “(Town employees) who you couldn't touch with a lay off.”

Selectman Ray Hender was the only selectman who thought the early retirement incentive would be worth trying, given the

something that may be useful to give them a presence down­town,” said John Hess, select­men chairman. “It’s certainly on the table. If the space is there it should certainly be put to good use.”

No formal discussion has taken place, but decision-mak­ing officials have been asked to consider letting AYS move to Old Town Hall.

Buzz Stapczynski, town manager, said he does not think AYS moving twice is a good idea. He called Old Town Hall a

lack of solid evidence of cost savings.

Stapczynski also asked select­men if they wished to shift some money destined for capital improvement projects - includ­ing maintenance of town build­ings, replacement of aging vehi­cles, and other long-term expenses - to the town’s gener­al fund. Selectmen did not.

The town follows a guideline of spending 2 percent of the bud­get on capital improvements, plus 20 percent of “new growth” taxes collected on homes and businesses built during the past year. Selectmen voted to stick with that formula rather than shift the new growth taxes to other parts of the budget.

In the next phase of the annu­al budgeting process, Stapczyns­ki and selectmen will review projects proposed by town departments and decide which ones will go before Town Meet­ing for approval in the spring. The current draft budget num­bers call for the town to spend $2.3 million on capital improve­

“fragile” building, and said he did not think it would be a good fit for AYS.

“I think they’re perfectly suit­ed here where they are,” said Stapczynski.

Though Stapczynski said he is open to discussing the matter, he suggested talks should center around whether more space is really needed. Considering the state of Andover’s budget, he added, this year and next are not times for departments to expand. “We’re not in an expanding mode,” he said.

ments in fiscal 2005, up from $1.8 million in the current year.

Budget numbers

While nobody knows exactly how the sluggish economy will affect state tax collections over the next year, Stapczynski said he estimates the legislature will again slash the amount of aid it sends to Andover by 10 percent, as it did at the start of the current fiscal year.

His projections show that the amount of state education assis­tance will drop from almost $5 million to $4.5 million, and lot­tery money will fall from about $1.6 million to $1.4 million, he said.

The town budget will increase slightly next year to about $104 million, he said. One of the fast­growing expenses will be health insurance for town employees, climbing 20 percent to $8.4 mil­lion. Special education and other non-wage school costs will jump by almost $1 million to $10.8 million.

By Meir RindeDespite concerns for child

safety, the School Committee is considering giving the town the two Doherty Middle School soccer fields it needs to build the proposed $5 million senior

center.In addition to parking and

safety worries, School Commit­tee members said they were concerned that Town Meeting would not approve an expen­sive new building project dur­ing a budget crunch that has already forced the schools to lay off 29 teachers and is expected to require more town layoffs next year.

“Is the town willing to do this?” asked Committeeman Richard J. Collins. "We have suffered tremendously in this school system, and our children have suffered tremendously. I’m the only senior citizen on this board, but I’m very con­cerned about our schools.”

If passed, the two-story, 27,000-square-foot center would be built on the fields just south of the Doherty Middle School on Bartlet Street. The

School Committee will vote to hand over land ownership Nov. 18.

Selectman Mary Lyman and Senior Center Task Force member Donald Robb - both former School Committee members - said they under­stood the town’s problems, but said the need for a larger Senior Center made it imperative that the town borrow money to finance the project. The current senior center is near the new location in the school adminis­tration building behind Town Offices.

“The Senior Center Task Force, like everyone involved in town affairs, is keenly aware of the budget problems we face this year,” Robb said. “If peo­ple want this, they have to be able to pay for it.”

Committee member Antho­ny H. James said from his expe­rience with building projects, early cost estimates end up bal­looning by as much as 30 per­cent before the work is done.

“As we go forward, let's make sure we have realistic numbers,” he said.

James also said the site was almost too small for a senior center, a concern neighbors of the soccer fields have raised in the past.

“It seems to me we’re trying to squeeze something into the site, where if we had 100 feet more on each side we’d all be more comfortable," he said.

With the land under select­men's control, the task force will ask April Town Meeting to approve $500,000 in borrowing to pay for construction plans, Robb and Lyman said. The rest of the borrowing would require approval of debt exclusion, a type of Proposition 2/ override allowing taxes to increase over 20 years to pay off the debt.

The construction costs would have to be approved at both Town Meeting and at the ballot box. The earliest the new center would open is 2007, Lyman said.

During the 1990s, a private group called Friends of Andover Seniors tried to raise the money to build a senior cen­ter it could donate to the town, but its effort fell short.

>■

Yes, Virginia, there is a HalloweenT

here are hundreds of more important issues in this town besides which Andover kids will be

allowed to trick-or-treat. Unless you're a kid.If you are a kid, trick-or-treating on a day other

than Halloween - a Friday this year - is akin to being

an adult and ringing in the New Year on Dec. 30. It just wouldn't feel the same. People want to celebrate

their holidays on the holiday.So some Andover parents with young kids were

turning the shade of candied apples this week

because Police Chief Brian Pattullo asked selectmen to move trick-or-treating hours to the day before Halloween. Instead of trick-or-treating on a Friday, Pattullo was asking for the candy-giving to happen

one day early. He and other local police chiefs had talked about aligning several Merrimack Valley towns so that all trick-or-treating would occur on the

same day. More importantly, he believed there would be far more traffic during the dark Friday Halloween night than on Thursday, Oct. 30. He believed a

Thursday event would be safer. “That’s what they ask me to do, look out for public safety," said Pattullo.

Accidents can happen at any time. No one would

want one on Halloween. But drivers know to be on the lookout for little candy-toting ghouls every Oct.

31, whether it falls on a Friday or Thursday.

In addition, most kids might have only one Friday night Halloween in their trick-or-treating lifetime. This year is one year when kids can grab their loot

and not worry about doing homework for the next day, or about waking up for school before 7 a.m. Selectmen made the obvious and correct choice not to

turn out the porch light on the town's kids this Friday.

Web question

Youth services on Main Street?

Last week's TownsmanWeb-site question was:

High Plain Elementary over­crowding prompted Superin­tendent Claudia Bach to sug­gest redistricting elementary schools in west Andover. Is this a good idea?

58 people voted.8, or 14 percent, said,

“Yes. Because of overcrowd­ing, some kids are not getting an equal learning environ­ment compared to peers at other Andover schools.”

38, or 66 percent, said, “No. Redistricting was an emotional ordeal for the kids who moved into High Plain from other schools. They shouldn't be forced to move to another elementary school.”

10, or 17 percent, said. “If school leaders think it should be done, fine. But the process should be transparent and every kid should be subject to the same rules.”

2. or 3 percent, voted "Other.”

This week’s question:Andover Youth Ser­

vices wants to use Old Town Hall as a temporary youth center until the new center in West Andover is built. Is this a good idea?

• Yes, kids need a place to hang around after school. Old Town Hall is a central loca­tion where kids can be watched by the community.

• Yes, kids say don’t like to socialize in Town Offices where youth services current­ly resides.

• No, downtown Main Street is a bad place to encourage lots of kids to con­gregate because it is heavily congested with traffic after school. It will be dangerous for kids, and traffic will only get worse with parents travel­ing over there to pick up and drop off.

• No, it will disrupt down­town businesses.

• Other.To cast a vote, surf to

Librarian’s lost work could fill a bookEditor, Townsman:

Kudos are due to the many people who have stepped up to volunteer at the Doherty Mid­dle School library. But let us not think for even one minute that re-shelving and checking books is anything close to the job that Annetta Freedman has done.

In her years as a school librarian, she brought school libraries into the high-tech age. She helped thousands of stu­dents learn the important skill of researching. She helped build character and confidence in every student she interacted with.

No one will ever know all that Freedman has done; she is too modest and fine to mention it. She opened her library early many mornings (way before her scheduled hours), so that students with working parents had a place to go.

So the Andover schools leaders are saving a paltry amount by cutting her hours. Shame on them - they have no idea what the students are real­ly losing.

Looking at a gift horseDrive down Lowell

Street and you could easily miss the sign for Ironstone Farm. But there are hun­dreds of people who wouldn't miss their appointment at Ironstone for the world.

People with a variety of disabilities go to Ironstone Farm to ride horses as part of a program called Chal­lenge Unlimited, which cel­ebrated its 20th anniversary

this weekend. Somehow, when they get on the horse, they feel better, they look better, their ail­ments seem to melt away.

“It’s not just young people, it’s the older peo­ple with MS (multiple sclerosis),” said resident George Behrakis, who was honored this weekend with his wife, Margo, for their donations to CU. “I would say the young people know what day they’re coming. I bet they're raring to go.”

The experts call the Cowboy Up treatment hip- potherapy. They say the movement of the horse simulates the walking movement of the rider, leading to improved coordination and endurance.

But regular folks have other words for the treatment: amazing, touching, emotional.

“It’s almost a tear-jerker when you look at it. I’m very impressed with the volunteers. I think they’re the heroes, not myself or my family just because we gave the financing,” Behrakis said. “I think we should have this all over the country.”

Deedee O'Brien has been the executive direc­tor of CU for each of its 20 years. She said that in the 1970s the farm's owner. Richard “Dick” Donovan decided to offer groups of dis­abled people the chance to ride horses. Quickly, she said, “You could see. It was not just something you do for fun, it was really having benefits.We started to research the benefits and to do it on a regu­lar basis.”

O’Brien still remembers one of the first days this hit home, when David Nierman, a young man with cerebral palsy came to the farm. “His father wanted him to ride and I didn’t want to put him on a horse because I was afraid he'd be hurt,” said O'Brien."The father said, ‘He deserves the chance, just like the other kids.’ ”

Neil Fater

The owner, Donovan, agreed, so O'Brien ner­vously put the man on a horse.

"When he got up, we had to hold him on. After about 15 or 20 minutes, his legs began to relax. By the time he finished the session, his legs were dangling. That was an eye-opener for me. I didn’t even know that was possible.

“That was his first session with us. He’s still coming. He's about 42 now.”

“He’s eager to get on the horse,” said David’s mother, Sylvia. “His room has a number of rib­bons and awards from events that he’s participat­ed in. It's a part of his life that’s important to him, particularly as he’s gotten older.”

As David Nierman has gotten older, the curva­ture of his spine has worsened. But when he gets on the horse. Sylvia Nierman said, he sits much taller and straighten "I've taken him to physical therapy after his morning horseback riding and they always seem to notice his ‘tone’ is better after horseback riding,” said Sylvia Nierman. “He’s much more relaxed.

“I'm sure what they're doing has helped main­tain him as much as possible,” she said.

That's why businessmen such as Behrakis keep supporting Challenge Unlimited.

“The faces. That’s what gets me. The happi­ness on the faces when they have so many obsta­cles to overcome,” said Behrakis.

For 20 years now, the folks who come to Iron­stone Farm have had a horse to help them leap over those obstacles, to leave obstacles behind - if only for a few minutes every week. Who would want to miss that?

Cell phones + no parents = party

Parents, teens must work to stop weekend destructionEditor, Townsman:

The following is a must read for high school parents because this could happen to them.

Suppose they have a great kid. She/he is a successful and hardworking student, a leader in a varsity sport, and has never been in trouble. One night his/her parents go to a family weekend at the “great kid’s” sis­ter’s college.

While left behind to work the weekend, the son or daughter invites a few close friends to watch the Red Sox game. Seems harmless enough, but apparently this is part of a major problem in our town. The word spreads across town in minutes with the help of cell phones and instant messaging to a town of teenagers looking for a place to hang, be with friends, drink alcohol and smoke pot.

As the word spreads, kids show up at the front door. The “good” child does not let the growing crowd into the house, but the party grows outside. This student is confident that he or she can control the situation, especially being a senior at AHS, and that the kids will just leave when not invited in. But the outside party grows and causes neighbors or drivers passing by to call the police.

As the police arrive, panic takes over. Kids hide in closets, climb out on the roof, and over­all, are disrespectful to our town's police officers by using obscenities and throwing things at them.

The police officers see a dis­orderly and loud house without any adults present. They arrest the child as the homeowner and clear every one from the house.

The child is cuffed and jailed for hours, and appears in adult criminal court. It’s an experi­ence that will never be forgotten.

Now the kids that were not invited and not allowed into the house think this student deserves to be arrested because he or she did not act in their best interest and let them in to pro­vide a place to party.

Recognize this is a problem

in Andover. The police know

that it is and, sadly, so do

many parents.

I forgot how brutal teenagers can be to each other.

Why wouldn’t my own son/daughter call the police with a growing number of kids think­ing this is the Andover party of the night? Because kids think they can handle the situation and that other kids will respect each other - my child was wrong on both counts.

The police told us that this happens every weekend in Andover and that the policy is zero tolerance. They said the word spreads with cell phones and IM and often without peo­ple being invited to the home. People should consider them­selves lucky if there is no major damage to their home and no one is hurt.

In looking back on the situa­tion, we know that kids should not have been invited, even if it was only a few close friends. Unfortunately, the risk of creat­ing an out-of-control event is the

reality.Mistake No. 2, the child

should recognize the situation is not within his or her control. This may be logical for adults, but may not be for omnipotent teenagers. The police should have been called right away.

So, I offer this call to action to parents:• Recognize this is a problem in Andover. The police know that it is and, sadly, so do many parents.• Talk to your kids about the problem and how to handle if they are ever faced with this situation.• Know what your kids are doing. Are they staying out after 1 a.m. and you don’t know where? Have them home at a reasonable hour and don't drop them off at a party without knowing that the parents, are home.

To our teenagers in Andover who will be going on to college and have a more privileged life than 99.8 percent of the rest of the world:• Respect each other• Treat fellow classmates the way you expect to be treated• Don’t participate in abusive and destructive behavior• Do not tell anyone that your parents are not home

We have a great town that is a complete bore to some teenagers looking for action. We need to all work together with other parents, our kids, the school, and the police depart­ment in order to improve the current environment.

Support for literacy effort something to write aboutEditor, Townsman:

The Leadership & Literacy Foundation is overwhelmed with the public support for our Literacy for Life Event which was held Sunday, Oct. 5 at the Wyndham Andover. More than 180 people attended our first annual event and helped raise more than $15.(XX). The contri­butions will be used to support literacy programs, training ses­sions, literacy kits for libraries and community centers, as well as leadership training programs for adults and teens.

We have much work ahead of us in the Greater Merrimack Valley. Lawrence is currently facing a staggering 14 percent unemployment rate - an unac­

ceptable number when we look at the abundance of jobs and opportunities available in other areas of our state. Unacceptable when we look at our neighbors living at or below the poverty level.

The Leadership & Literacy Foundation is working with fed­eral. state, local, public and pri­vate organizations to change those numbers for the better. By providing residents with a strong sense of community and civic responsibility, we can begin to help those who struggle to rise from their circumstances and work to shape a stronger, more resilient community. With a solid foundation in leadership and literacy skills, our neighbors

can achieve what was once an impossible dream. We continue to strive for a strong community that will be a nurturing village for not only our children but for entrepreneurs, small businesses and corporations alike.

We look forward to building a stronger Merrimack Valley region. With support like we received this month, we know that community members are equally as excited to begin this journey with us as we continue to extend our reach into the community.

GREATER LAWRENCE CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT

Brothers grieve after worker falls to death at tech school

PHOTO BY CHARLIE RUSSO

A police officer comforts the brother of Vichey Phoung last week after the vehicle Phoung was driving fell from the second floor of the Greater Lawrence Technical School, killing Phoung.

By Ben Heilmanand Charlie Russo

A construction worker fell to his death in view of his brothers and several other men on Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 15, after accidental­ly driving his Bobcat construction vehicle off the second story of Greater Lawrence Technical School.

Vichey Phoung, 23, of Lynn was pushing debris out the window of a second-story room to the ground below. At about 5 p.m., Phoung’s Bobcat went off the edge and landed upside down. He died from massive head trauma, police said.

Superintendent Frank Vacirca said students and teachers were spared from witnessing the after- hours incident.

Vacirca said grief counseling was made available by school coun­selors and the Trauma Intervention Program (TIP), a business that offers emergency counseling at the scene of accidents. Vacirca said that no student of teacher required coun­seling.

Jayan Conlin, an Andover resi­

dent and owner of TIP, said coun­selors were on the scene to help the brother of Phoung. She called the situation "very tragic - devastating" for the workers who witnessed the accident. "In general there is an overwhelming sense of helpless­ness - survivor guilt, shock, disbe­lief, denial, a numb feeling, like you're under water,” she said.

TIP called the family of the vic­tim to offer it information about long-term grief counseling.

Phoung has three brothers - Saroeum, Perry and a man whose name police did not know. Saroeum and Perry were at the scene, one of them dropping to his knees and sob­bing while rescue workers scram­bled over the upside-down vehicle with hydraulic saws and cutting tools. The head trauma was severe enough that rescue workers soon gave up, realizing the accident was fatal.

The windows from where the debris was being dumped have small barriers at their edges. But the front loader of Phoung's Bobcat 753 might have been over-weighted or the barrier might have broken

from repeated rams, allowing the vehicle to crash through, said police Lt. Kevin Winters.

Kenneth Tarbell, vice president of TLT Construction, the contrac­tors performing the work, arrived on the scene shortly after the acci­dent. “We’re just going to assist officials with the investigation,”

Tarbell said. He said this was the first fatal work accident he could remember in 25 years working at TLT.

The Greater Lawrence Techni­cal School is undergoing a $51 mil­lion renovation, with work sched­uled to be completed next year. It is located on River Road.

Boy hit in eye

with arrow

Sunday Oct. 19 - At 4:47 p.m., an 8-year-old boy was shot in the eye with an arrow by a 12-year-old hoy while playing in the Belle Haven Drive neighborhood.

Detective Sgt. Donald Pat­tullo said the 8-year-old was playing with an older boy who had a compound bow made for children. “It just boggles my mind that these things (compound bows) would be made for children and that anyone would buy them,” said Pattullo.

Police said the boy injured was blocking the arrow with a toy shield and the arrow deflected and went into his eye. The injured boy was brought to Massachusetts General Hospital by ambu­lance.

A compound bow is built in three sections, a center sec­tion where the grip is located, and the two end sections or limbs. The compound bow uses a system of cables and pulleys or cams to provide more power with less effort required by the user. They are popular among hunters and target shooters because once the string is drawn back halfway the cable system reduces the amount of effort required of the archer to hold the bow at full draw, which is helpful when aiming the bow at a target or wild game.

At 11:47 p.m.. a Bullfinch Drive resident reported someone knocking on her door, but she was afraid to answer it because she couldn’t see anyone from the peephole. An officer report­ed it was an elderly female lost and looking for her apartment.

Andrea Shea Cirbee in her antique but updated 250-year-old kitchen on Lowell Street. Her home was once a stagecoach tavern and was named to the National Register of Historic Places nearly 40 years ago.

COOKING UP HISTORY

Peek into 8 historical kitchensOne-time tavern hasBy Judy Wakefield

t’s a secret now, but organizers are hoping an upcoming tour of eight his­toric kitchens in Andover will become a

hot topic.The kitchen tour is meant to raise money

for the Andover Historical Society, which is pairing it with a silent auction later in the day on Saturday, Nov. 1.

Organizers are hush-hush on the exact location of the eight kitchens being fea­tured, saying only that the kitchens are scat­tered around town and offer a picture of what Andover life was like during various eras. They want the destinations unveiled for tour ticket holders on the day of the tour.

Judy Matulsky of the Andover Historical Society would only say that the eight kitchens include one that belonged to an Andover shoemaker in the early 1800s; another that once belonged to artist H. Winthrop Pierce in the early 1900s; and a Shawsheen brick home’s historic kitchen features appliances from the 1930s.

An historic kitchen at 161 Lowell St., at the comer of Kirkland Circle, is also on the

the whiskey bottles ltour. There, homeowner and fairly new res­ident of town Andrea Shea Cirbee, was happy to talk about her kitchen. She is a new historical society member and happily shared the history behind her kitchen.

She and husband Stephen Cirbee have been mixing the old with the new at their 250-year-plus-old home since they moved to Andover from Roanoke, Va. in July 2001.

Named to the National Register of His­toric Places in 1966, the home was built around 1750 by Hermon Abbot. It was a stage coach tavern until the 1830s when the home was sold to the White family.

Empty whiskey bottles have turned up numerous times during restoration, leaving Andrea Cirbee often wondering about what life was like in her kitchen some 200 years ago.

“If only these walls could talk,” laughs the outgoing new owner, as she points to an exposed beam in the kitchen that is missing a chunk. She says files at Andover Histori­cal Society reveal the kitchen was once struck by lightning that knocked a pie of out the hand of Mrs. White as she was putting it in the oven.

“That's what I like so much about the historical society." she says. “I stopped by one day last June wondering if they had information on my house and they had a file. I think they are a great resource."

Besides that beam, the magnificent hearth, an original fireplace with a beehive brick oven, a wide-plank pine floor and an oversized porcelain farm sink, make this kitchen tour-worthy. Local history buffs applaud the Cirbees for protecting the kitchen’s historical integrity, but Andrea Cirbee points out “being functional" was just as important to them when they redid the kitchen shortly after moving in.

They have four children - triplets Michael, Thomas and Jack, who are 9, and

a daughter. Shea Marie, who is 8 - and a dog and guinea pigs, so the kitchen also needed to be family-friendly.

“I mean, I need lots of space for grocery shopping alone. You should see all of the bags," says Cirbee.

“We go through nine gallons of milk each week," she says. “And, I love to cook.”

As a result, while the giant, old kitchen fireplace works, the family opted not to have wood burning in the room with young children coming and going. Instead, they installed a wood stove in the fireplace.

Wilson's Pulitzer Prize-winning drama Fences to audiences throughout Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts.

The first Broadway play ever to win all five “Best Play” hon­ors (Pulitzer Prize, Tony Award, NY Drama Critics Circle, Outer Critics Circle. Drama Desk Award), Fences is the story of Troy Maxson, a black man in the turbulent 1950s whose failed dream to become a pro­fessional ball player alienates him from his athlete son.

Chosen by Time/CNN as one of America’s best artists, playwright August Wilson has been at work for nearly a quar­ter century on a series of plays documenting the lives of black

Americans during each decade of the 20th century. Those plays include Ma Rainey’s Black Bot­tom, The Piano Lesson and his latest. Gem of the Ocean, which opened at Chicago’s Goodman Theatre before traveling to LA’s Mark Taper Forum. Fences remains his most popular work; the original Broadway produc­tion starring James Earl Jones grossed more than any non­musical in history. Critic Clive Barnes hailed the play as "the strongest, most passionate American dramatic writing since Tennessee Williams.”

“August Wilson is one of the hottest playwrights in Ameri­ca," comments Weston Play­house producing director Steve Stettler, “and we are honored to be producing the (local) pre­miere of his most celebrated work." Wilson is, in fact, very much in the news. The screen­play of Fences is set to be pro­duced by Scott Rudin (The Hours), and Minneapolis’

For centuries people have appreciated the richness and balance of the Episcopal Church. Sadly, in the last several years many things have changed. In 1992 a new Episcopal denomination

was created, The Charismatic Episcopal Church ("The CEC”). It keeps the centuries tested fullness of liturgical worship and it insists on upholding God-given Biblical doctrine and moral teaching. There's a

CEC church right here in Plaistow, New Hampshire and we're hoping to form addi­tional congregations.

While we build our own building we're wor­shiping at the Vic Geary Center, Greenough Road, on the east side of Timberlane Region­al Schools, Plaistow. Service, with Sunday School and Nursery, is at 10 a.m. each Sun­day. There are mid-week events, too. For fur-

AHS ROUNDUP

Tournament time for varsity teamsBy Rick Harrison

Andover High varsity sports teams were generally successful as regular season play wound down, or concluded, and they all geared up for imminent MIAA Tourna­ment games, meets and matches.

GIRLS SOCCERThe Andover High girls varsity soccer

team clinched another Merrimack Valley Conference Division I championship recently, edging Central Catholic 2-1 for the second time this season to nail down its 13th title in 18 years.

The Lady Warriors had some help from former standout player Anne Marinaro's Chelmsford squad, which upset second- place Billerica 2-0 to knock the Indians out of contention.

However. Marinaro's revitalized team then beat Andover 2-1 Tuesday night at Lovely Held on a goal by MVC scoring leader Jenna Tulley with just 20 seconds to play.

AHS also dropped a recent 2-1 non­league decision to North Andover under the lights at Ah ah G. Hayes Stadium

In earlier action. AHS saw its dreams of an undefeated season shattered by south shore power and nemesis Notre Dame Academy of Hingham which registered a hard-fought 2-1 victory over the Lady War­riors under the lights at Lovely Field.

ln a crucial MVC first-place showdown against Billerica, prior to the Chelmsford loss, Andover battled the host Indians to a 0-0 standoff.

Those mixed results left AHS at 12-3-2 overall, including 9-1-2 in the conference. Billerica fell to 8-2-2 in the conference.

ScheduleRegular season play concludes with the

MVC finale tonight at home versus Methuen (7 p.m.). and the non-league rematch Saturday at Notre Dame Academy of Hingham (noon).

Tonight is also the annual Senior Night, with the team's 12 seniors and their parents to be recognized at special pre-game cere­monies.

Lovely Field is the site of the annual MVC All-Star Games this Sunday after­noon, with the girls playing at I p.m. and the boys at 3 p.m. At presstime it was not known who would represent Andover.

Tournament pairingsThe Division 1 North Tournament pair­

ings are scheduled for release next Wednesday.

The Andover girls should be seeded among the top five and should get at least one home game.

Leading scorersThrough 17 games ultra-talented sharp­

shooter Jackie Powers led the attack with 17 goals and seven assists for 24 points.

Emily Pallotta is next in line with six goals and nine assists, while Erica Weeks has six goals, four assists and Jen Hagopian five goals, four assists.

Lothrop sidelinedSenior defender Jeannie Lothrop turned

in an excellent performance in her final game against Notre Dame Academy of Hingham.

The standout has been diagnosed with mononucleosis and will have to sit out the remainder of the season.

Andover rankedEarlier this month the Lady Warriors

cracked the national Top 25 rankings in USA Today.

Andover, undefeated at the time, stood at No. 23 in the country until it dropped back out of (he listing following the losses to NDA-Hingham and North Andover.

Chelmsford 2 Andover 1

This heartbreaking loss, to a team Andover whacked 4-1 earlier this month, was decided w ith 20 seconds left in the 80- minute game.

Senior forward Jenna Tulley, who notched her KMJth career point earlier this season, took a through pass from Elise Gal­lagher and went I-on-1 with an AHS defender.

Using her body to shield the ball from the defender. Tulley moved in close and poked a shot into the far lower comer of the net.

The Lady Warriors had taken a I -0 half- time lead when Amanda Carlson scored with 30 seconds left, the assist credited to Christie Spang.

The slender advantage held up until Lions' sophomore forward Ashley Hans- bury converted a Tulley pass 13 minutes into the second half.

That set the stage for Tulley's last- minute heroics, as Chelmsford improved to 8-3-1 in MVC I and9-5-l overall.

"We had some dings and bruises earlier in the season that contributed to our slow start,” said former AHS star player and Chelmsford coach Anne Marinaro.

"Tonight I couldn't single anyone out. Everyone stepped up and played well They had to for us to beat a team of Andover's caliber.”

AHS goalkeeper Micaela Smith fin­ished with 13 saves and Chelmsford's Alli­son Wellman made seven stops.

North Andover 2 Andover 1

Jenny Meltz of the Andover High girls swim and dive team competes against Methuen at the Greater Lawrence Technical School pool last Friday, Oct. 17. Andover beat Methuen, 99-76, to improve to 10-0 this season.

The Lad\ Warriors struck first, midway through the opening half, when Jen Hagopian scored off a hard-working assist from Jackie Powers.

Powers brought the ball down the left wing side, cut across the end line and fed a pass to Hagopian at the near post for a Hick shot that eluded the NA goalkeeper.

The Scarlet Knight (8-4-3) tied it just two minutes later, however, and netted the game-winner in the 20th minute of the sec­ond half.

The locals finished with a 14-5 shooting edge as Micaela Smith made three saves in

net."We had two or three other great scor­

ing chances in the first half, but their keep­er played well (13 saves),” said coach Dick Loschi. “About half our shots were testers.

"Even though we outplayed them we really didn't look ready tonight." added Loschi. "We were slow to the ball and most of the time we were just spinning our wheels out there."

Andover 2 Central Catholic 1

Jackie Powers gave Andover a l-0 lead at 21:00 of the first half, once again outrun­ning the defense to the ball after a through pass by sophomore midfielder Emily Pal­lotta.

Junior middie Brittany Moriarty added what proved to be the winning goal at 3:30 of the final half, boosting the lead to 2-0 by depositing a low shot inside the far post.

Lindsey Timko notched the assist on the second goal with another through pass from the left wing side.

Central spoiled the shutout bid. and caused a few anxious moments, when it scored with just 1:20 left in the game.

"This was a good win against a difficult league opponent that is young and improv­ing all the time." said coach Loschi. "They made us work very hard for the two points.”

AHS goalkeeper Arianna Miliotis made two saves, and defensive standouts were

midfielder Amanda Carlson and defender Maura Daniels.

Earlier Games NDA-Hingham 2 Andover 1

Notre Dame scored a pair of goals five minutes apart, late in the second half, to wipe out a 1-0 Andover lead in this battle of potential state championship con­tenders.

NDA (10-1-1) threw a defensive blan­ket over Lady Warriors' scoring machine Jackie Powers to help in the victory.

"They marked her close in the first half." said coach Dick Loschi. "We pulled Jackie back to midfield in the second half, to break up and counter what they were doing, and it worked until their two late goals.”

Junior midfielder Michelle Pirro snapped the scoreless tie with her first goal of the season just 1:15 into the second half.

Capt. Erica Weeks notched the assist after booting a crossing pass to Pirro break­ing in on the left side.

The slender 1-0 lead stood up until 29:04 when NDA's Amy Avilable tied it, and with six minutes left in the game a fine individual effort by the visitors' Jessica Haeffner produced the winning goal.

Haeffner received a pass with her back to the net. and in one motion turned quick­ly to her right and fired an accurate shot.

“It was a very athletic play,” said Loschi. "Our keeper (Micaela Smith) had

no chance."Smith played the entire game and fin­

ished with two saves, while Notre Dame's Holly Sands made three stops in the defen­sive struggle.

Loschi lauded the defensive play of Jeannie Lothrop and Capt. Layal Hannah.

“I guess you could say it was a game between North and South powers." noted Loschi. "The victory was there for the tak­ing — but we just didn't get it.

"We haven't been able to break through against Notre Dame the last few years.

They’ve had our number.”The Lady Warriors have a second pre-

tournament chance when the archrivals col­lide again in the regular season finale Oet.25 in Hingham.

Andover 0 Billerica 0

Lady Warriors’ goalkeeper Micaela Smith had to make just one save to record her second solo shutout and the team's fourth whitewash of the fall.

These two teams also tied the first time they met, 2-2. in the second game of the

season.Defensive standouts for the locals were

Layal Hannah and Mallory Jaracz."I felt we had total control and dominat­

ed the game from start to finish,” said coach Loschi. "Billerica did not have a shot on net in the first half. We bottled them up and were on their side of the field 90 percent of

the lime."(Keeper Brett) Maron made two spec­

tacular saves for them to preserve the tie.”The Indians also paid special attention

to Jackie Powers and kept her off the board for the second straight game.

"They marked her all over the field,” noted Loschi. whose team was shut out for the first time all season.

For Billerica, it was an impressive eighth shutout in the last nine games and lOth shutout overall.

"We call our defense the ‘no-goal patrol' and we've allowed only one goal in the last nine games,” said Billerica coach Tom Severn.

Maron was credited with five saves, and the BMHS skipper lauded the hustle of full­backs Alicia Leblanc, Jenna Carideo, Michelle LaMar and forward Sydney Fitz­patrick.

Andover 2 Waltham 0

The last time these teams played soccer was in the Division I North Tournament quarterfinals in 2000, with Andover rout­ing the undefeated and higher-seeded Hawks, 6-1, at Leary Field in Waltham.

This latest victory over the Lady Hawks, once again at Leary Field, kept AHS unbeaten against Waltham all-time with a perfect 6-0 mark.

"Waltham approached us for this game,” said Loschi. "Their league did some realigning and they wanted a more chal­lenging non-league schedule.”

The locals scored a goal in each half, and held Waltham to a mere one shot on net, as they won the game played through intermittent rain on a slick-but-not-danger- ous field.

“Waltham’s performance was some­thing of a surprise,” said Loschi. "They were more physical than expected and they forced the play.

“Not that our control was ever threat­ened — but they made us work hard which

is a good thing.”Erica Weeks netted the first goal at 6:40

of the opening half, taking a comer kick and watching as the ball bent (like Beck­ham) and curved over the keeper’s head into the net.

It remained 1-0 until Jackie Powers scored her 14th with six minutes to play.

The insurance goal came off another patented foot race, as Meredith Johnson sent a pass deep into the Waltham end where Powers beat the Lady Hawks’ defense to the ball.

Her hard shot nestled into the net in the lower right hand comer.

Micaela Smith chalked up her first solo shutout and the team's third of the season.

FOOTBALL

Take notice: Warriors are winning bigBy Rick Harrison

Don’t look now, but the Andover High varsity foot­ball team is alone in second place in the Merrimack Valley Conference.

The Golden Warriors, a surprise to almost everyone but themselves, are 4-2 overall and 3-1 in conference play following a resounding 35-14 romp over Haverhill at Lovely Field.

Coach Ken Maglio’s crew trails only three-time reigning champ Chelmsford (5-1, 4-0 MVC) in the standings.

If the locals can manage to run the table in their final four conference games, they would qualify for the East­ern Mass. Division 2 playoffs and be on the threshold of their first Super Bowl berth since 1975 — which com­pleted an impressive string of three straight Bowl appearances and two state titles.

Assuming Andover can avoid looking past tomor­row night’s opponent, Dracut, a potential first-place showdown with Chelmsford is looming on Nov. 7 at Lovely Field.

In between Dracut and Chelmsford is undefeated reigning New Hampshire State Division 2 titlist Exeter (Nov. 1). Staying healthy will be a prime concern when the locals travel to Eustis Field in Exeter to battle the Blue Hawks (7-0).

The final two regular season games are on the road at improving Billerica (2-4, 2-1 MVC), which edged Lowell 14-13 last weekend, and Thanksgiving morning at Veterans Memorial Stadium in Lawrence against Central Catholic (5-1).

Central is a half-game behind Andover in the con­ference, at 2-1, and if both continue to win the Turkey Day showdown could be for the MVC title and playoff berth.

□ □□High-powered Andover, surpassing 30 points for the

second straight game and fourth time this fall, once again dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball and raced to a commanding 21-0 halftime lead

against Haverhill.The locals were never in danger thereafter.The unhearlded AHS defense completely stymied

the Haverhill ground game, limiting the visitors to 15 net yards on 24 carries.

Keying the stop squad, which has allowed an aver­age of only 11.7 points per game, were junior line­

backer Nate Wiech and junior comer John Fox with eight tackles each.

Junior linebacker Mike Muccio (six tackles) and 270-pound tackle Phil Perkins (five) were all over the Haverhill ballcarri­ers as well.

The Hillies did have some success through the air, completing 11 passes for 229 yards, but sophomore free safety Buddy Farnham had his fifth interception of the season while Shaheen Ghandchi added a pick.

Utilizing their superior size and speed, the explosive Golden Warriors unleashed a devastating ground game that featured the fancy footwork of Ghandchi and Matt Hen­

nessy.Both running backs scored a pair of

touchdowns, while quarterback Geoff Stevens added one TD and also completed 9-of-l 1 passes for 98 yards to set up sever­al of the scores.

Placekicker Joel Keefe went 5-for-5 in PAT boots and now has 18 for the season.

Ghandchi finished with a game-high 151 yards rushing, while Hennessy added 72 yards to suipass 600 for the season.

With the big horses like Perkins up front doing some ferocious blocking in the trenches, AHS wasted no time taking the lead as Ghanchi raced 51 yards for the first TD on the second play of the game.

A short time later, on just his second carry, Ghanchi broke loose again and sprinted 56 yards for six more points.

Early in the second quarter Hennessy joined the fun with a three yard TD plunge.

and Keefe’s third conversion kick of the night made it 21-0.

Andover was knocking on the door again in the final minute of the first half, marching to the Hillies’ five yard line before a sack set up a field goal try that missed connections.

The teams traded touchdowns in the second half, AHS keeping pace on a five yard run by Hennessy and a two yard dive by Stevens.

Haverhill scored twice on a pair of one-yard plunges by T.J. Pare and quarterback Andy Byron.

The Hillies, plagued by poor first halves all season, fell to 2-3 overall and 1-2 in conference play.

The Golden Warriors, whose last previous win over Haverhill was 41-22 in 1999. now own a 13-7-3 series edge since 1980.

□ □□Andover’s balanced scoring is led by Buddy Farn­

ham with 36 points while Stevens. Hennessy and Ghanchi have 30 points each, Keefe 18, Ben Newman 12 and Dennis Collins six.

□ □□Tomorrow night's game against Dracut has a 7 p.m.

kickoff at Lovely Field.If not taken seriously, the Middies have the potential

to give any MVC opponent a tough time.Dracut enters the game tied for last in the MVC with

an 0-3 mark after losses to Lowell (21-13), Tewksbury (14-13) and Haverhill (20-7).

Dracut completely outplayed Lowell in the second half, without its top rusher and scorer Jon Schiripo, and nearly erased a 21-0 deficit.

The agonizing defeat to Tewksbury came when the Middies squandered a 13-0 lead, the winning points on a safety with 2:29 left after a center snap went over the Dracut punter's head and through the end zone.

Coach John Gibson’s team is 3-3 overall with non­league wins over North Middlesex Regional (34-24), Middlesex League member Watertown (31-8) and Lawrence High (28-7).

Schiripo. although he missed one game (illness) and was less than 100 percent for two others, leads the Mid­dies with seven TDs and 42 points. He also has 494 yards rushing including exactly 100 last weekend

Andover 4 Methuen 2

Jackie Powers made it six two-goal games, as she netted the second goal and the eventual game-winner to spark the attack in the Tuesday afternoon game at Methuen.

Emily Pallotta broke the scoreless tie at 32:31 of the first half, arching a shot over the Rangers’ goalkeeper and just inside the far post after taking a ground-ball crossing pass from Erica Weeks.

It remained 1-0 until Powers connected seven minutes into the second half, blasting a hard shot to the lower left comer follow­ing a right-wing crossing pass from Jen Hagopian.

Methuen (6-5-2) then came alive with consecutive goals at 13:16 and 26:07 to forge a 2-2 tie.

Three minutes later (29:04) Powers pocketed the clincher, gunning a 15-yard

shot to the top left comer after Meredith Johnson took a high ball out of the air and headed it to the AHS scoring machine.

Amanda Carlson added some insurance at 34:44, driving home a low shot from directly in front after Pallotta intercepted a Methuen clearing pass.

Arianna Miliotis played the entire game in net and finished with four saves.

Coach Loschi lauded the play of Maura Daniels, Johnson and Carlson.

"Daniels played her best defensive game of the season. We needed that, especially after Megan Finn hurt her ankle. We were already a player down with Mallory Jaracz away for one game," said Loschi.

"Johnson was a force all day in front of their net, and Carlson was all over the field making plays."

BOYS SOCCERCapt. Tim Bengston scored his first hat

trick of the season, and the team's second, while also setting up a fourth goal as the Andover High boys varsity soccer team

qualified for the Division 1 North Tourna­ment with a recent 4-0 whitewash of Chelmsford at Lovely Field.

lt was the fourth time this fall the Gold­en Warriors have beaten an opponent by four or more goals.

Bengston had another goal on Tuesday afternoon, and Jarrett Mackin netted the game-winner, as the locals continued their fine play heading into the MIAA Tourna­ment with a 2-1 squeeze past Central Catholic in Windham. N.H.

Those victories lifted AHS to 10-5-1 overall, including 7-4-1 in Merrimack Val­ley Conference play, and the locals are 7-1- 1 in their last nine games.

The host Raiders' Sean Bakhtiari tied it l-l on a penalty kick late in the opening

half.Jarrett Mackin, with some unexpected

help from an official, broke the deadlock by netting the deciding goal in the second half.

The ball glanced off a referee who was standing on the end line, bouncing to Mackin who then fired home his l Oth goal of the season.

"We’re doing what we have to do to win." said AHS coach Mike Wartman. "We played fairly well in this game and we con­tinue to come together as a team."

FIELD HOCKEYIt all came down to yesterday afternoon

(Wednesday), after Townsman presstime, for the Andover High varsity field hockey

team.The Lady Warriors, embroiled in a torrid

three-way battle with Tewksbury and Chelmsford for the* Merrimack Valley Con­ference championship, were in the driver’s seat as they entered a showdown at Tewks­bury.

Entering that game, Tewksbury was 12- 2-1 in conference play for 25 points, Andover 11-1-2 for 24 points and Chelms­ford 9-1-5 for 23 points.

Andover, 12-1-2 overall, had two MVC games left while Tewksbury and Chelms­ford both had one.

AHS has an all-important makeup game in hand with Lawrence, a team it crushed 6- 1 on Sept. 12 and figures to beat easily once again in the MVC finale today (Thursday).

Assuming Andover will beat Lawrence, the Lady Warriors needed a tie or win against Tewksbury to clinch the title out­right. If Tewksbury won yesterday it clinched the title by taking a three-point lead.

Chelmsford tixik itself out of the picture when it tied Methuen 1-1 on Monday.

□ □□In recent games, Andover also battled to

a 1-1 deadlock with Methuen and white­washed Haverhill, 3-0.

Those results extended the Lady War­riors' undefeated streak to 12 games.

The goal by Methuen snapped a string of seven straight shutouts for AHS, which has registered 10 whitewashes in its last 12

games.The locals have allowed only five goals

in 15 games this fall while outscoring the opposition by a wide 38-5 margin.

ScheduleBusy AHS wraps up regular season play

tomorrow afternoon at non-league Bedford (3:30 p.m).

The annual MVC All-Star Game is set for this Sunday afternoon (1 p.m.) in Low­ell.

Andover’s representatives will not be known until the coaches convene for the All-Star meeting tonight.

Tournament pairingsThe Division 1 North Tournament pair­

ings are scheduled for release next Monday.Andover should be among the top three

or four seeds. The Lady Wamors could get a first-round bye and will have at least one home game in the single-elimination tour­

ney.

Shea shatters recordAdrienne Shea, who has scored more

than 50 percent of the team's goals this sea­son, tops the Andover point parade with 20

goals in 15 games.Shea’s 20 goals are believed to be a new

school single-season record, eclipsing the mark of 19 set just two years ago by Grace Farnham.

Farnham and Stephanie Casper still share the single-season AHS mark for total points with 25 each.

Shea is second in the MVC scoring race behind Tewksbury's Courtney O'Brien (21 goals, five assists).

Leading scorersJamie Maltz is the second leading scorer

with three goals and nine assists, Krissy Levis has two goals and eight assists, Jacqui Munro one goal, nine assists and Allison Abreau three goals, three assists.

□ □□

Goaltender Elissa Slovin has nine solo shutouts this season and 18 for her AHS career. She has also shared in four other whitewashes.

Andover 1 Methuen 1

Adrienne Shea gave the Lady Warriors a l-0 lead at 16:31 of the first half, with the assist credited to Casey Salois.

The advantage held up until Methuen tied it with eight minutes to play in the

game.The Rangers' goal snapped Andover

junior netminder Elissa Slovin’s impressive shutout streak at 472 consecutive minutes.

Slovin finished with 10 saves, and strong efforts were contributed by midfielders Krissy Levis and Brittany Wadbrook.

Andover 3 Haverhill 0

Adrienne Shea launched the scoring with a first-half goal off a comer, tipping in an across-the-crease pass from Jacqui Munro. Jamie Maltz was also credited with an assist after starting the play.

Shea made it 2-0 with her record-break­ing 20th goal early in the second half. Maltz stole the ball at midfield and passed to the left post where Shea was stationed.

“Adrienne was in the right place at the right time. It happens to her a lot,” said coach Maureen Noone.

Sophomore right wing Casey Salois added a second insurance goal with an assist to left inner Allison Abreau, whose pass to the right post was popped in by Salois.

Elissa Slovin earned her ninth solo shutout and the team's 10th of the season.

Haverhill goaltender Jen Salvi kept the score respectable with 12 stops.

Coach Noone lauded the play of Capt. Krissy Levis and Jacqui Munro at midfield, Capt. Stephanie Sweeney on defense and Maltz at forward.

Munro returned to the lineup after miss-

Theresa Manzi Amore. BC-HIS

Amore Hearing

Hearing is one of life pleasures that most of us take for granted, until there’s a problem. Theresa Manzi Amore, of Amore Hearing Consul­tants, has ottered diagnostic testing and expert hearing-aid fitting for more than 40 years. She still takes pride in helping people regain their hearing, and her many loyal cus­tomers appreciate her caring and warmth.

Theresa says that over the years she has seen many dramatic improvements in hearing-aid tech­nology. Recent developments in the speech industry have heightened people's quality of lite and ability to communicate. Advancements in hearing-aid technology are also pro­viding even more options for those with hearing loss. Cochlear implants provide excellent amplification for hearing impaired children. By using highly sophisticated digital hearing instruments, as opposed to analog hearing instruments, a teacher can now understand a child’s question in the classroom if she was using two digital hearing aids as opposed to

analog hearing aids.Another recent technological

development is the SONGBIRD Dis­posable Hearing Aid. This is an ideal solution that could change the lives of those with a mild to moderate loss of hearing. It is.easy to get, easy to use and affordable, costing only $79 per pair. Due to the convenient dis­posable design, there are no batter­ies to replace and no need for repairs. The hearing aid has proven to be unbelievably comfortable, and same-day fitting is possible.

People who suspect that they may be suffering from hearing loss, shouldn’t postpone taking the first crucial step. A free hearing test and consultation is available at Amore Hearing Consultants and is easy to schedule.

To make an appointment with Theresa or one of her certified audi­ologists in Andover at 11 Chestnut St., call 978-470-4500. For an appointment in Haverhill at 3 Wash­ington St., Room 210, call 978-372- 4851. The number to contact the Lawrence offices is 978-682-4730.

TOWN TALK

Trees dropping, men hoppingLast Wednesday night’s windstorm cost the town about

$1,200, and a clean-up process the town expects to last one month is now underway.

Harsh winds blew through Andover on Oct. 15, ripping branches and limbs from many trees and even knocking some trees over. Wires were tom down, roads were blocked and a four-man tree crew raced around town to address the damage.

“They were hopping. They were really hopping all over the place,” said Joe Piantedosi, plant and facilities director.

The crew was needed until 10 p.m. Wednesday, attending strictly to emergencies. Workers returned early the next morning when Piantedosi pulled others from his department and assigned them to help with the tree clean-up.

Clean-up efforts had been calculated to cost about $1,200 for 40 hours of overtime for plant and facilities department workers, according to Piantedosi.

“We try and budget overtime to handle normal occur­rences like this,” he said, but all departments have faced cutbacks and more storms like this “would chew up the overtime very quickly. You can't budget or plan for that.”

5K walk raises $28KMore than 200 participants volunteered their time and

energy Oct. 5 to raise $28,000 as part of the 11 th annual five-kilometer walk for the Professional Center for Child Development.

“We’re celebrating our 30th year,” said Elaine Rotolo, development director. “We’re trying to raise $30,000 for our 30th year.”

Leading contributors were Sarah and Sydney Eberth and the Fournier family of Starwood Crossing. The Eberth girls, 10 and 8 respectively, led the youth pledges, raising more than $500 by collecting pledges from family, friends and neighbors. The girls volunteered last summer at the center where their mother, Laura Eberth, works as a nurse.

The Fournier family ran a multi-family yard sale and donated the profits, an impressive $1,200.

The money will be used by the center to fund and expand programming, allowing the nonprofit organization to carry out its mission of eliminating barriers to growth and devel­opment for youth with special needs.

Many local businesses assisted the cause, including Ath­letes Corner. Starbucks and Perfecto’s Cafe. The center encourages more tax-deductible donations.

The Professional Center for Child Development, 32 Osgood St., was founded in 1973 when a perceived lack of services for special needs children prompted two Andover nurses to open a nursery for handicapped children, accord­ing to the center. They did so with the sponsorship of the rector of Andover's Christ Church.

Accepting the ChallengeChallenge Unlimited at Ironstone Farm, a program in

Andover that uses horse riding to change the lives of dis­abled people, celebrated its 20th anniversary last weekend.

As part of its celebration. Challenge Unlimited paid trib­ute to Andover residents George and Margo Behrakis. by giving them the Ironstone Farm Spirit of Giving Award. Since the beginning of the program, and during the past 20 years, the Behrakis family has supported the program finan­cially, said Deedee O’Brien.

“They’ve been contributors for many years and among the first donors for our first capital campaign to purchase the property,” she said. "They have been first for us and allowed us to get projects going.”

In fact, at this weekend’s event, the Behrakis family rose to the Challenge again, said O'Brien. They brought 150 people who had never heard of Ironstone Farm to the event, and when these people saw a video of the work done at the farm, they were so touched they opened their wallets, con­tributing about $ 100,000.

“They were really shocked. Their wives were crying looking at the video. It became very emotional,” said George Behrakis. “We’re very proud to be affiliated with (Challenge Unlimited).”

Margo and George Behrakis of Andover received the Ironstone Farm Spirit of Giving Award as the program that uses hippotherapy to help disabled people celebrated its 20th anniversary last weekend.

Ready for Olympic trialAfter 2:45 marathon, local runner qualifies to competeBy Ben Heilman

Forty-three-year-old Andover runner Nina Caron qualified for the US Olympic Trials last week. The

mother of four will attend the Olympic Trials to compete with the country's women's team in St.Louis, Mo. in April.

Caron qualified for the trials after completing the Chicago Marathon in 2 hours and 45 min­utes - three minutes before the Olympic cutoff.

“I can’t even tell you how I felt when I crossed that line. It was the most exciting moment of my life,” she said. Caron knew at the finish of the race that she had come in under time. “I just had to remain very focused,” she said.

Caron expects to step up her training for the event in January, but she hasn’t discussed her game plan with her coach.

Caron has always run for pleasure, but got serious in the last three years after meeting trainer Fernando Braz, who coaches the Merrimack Val­ley Striders run­ning group.

Caron credits her success to Braz’s training.

"It’s been an Nina Caron says,“If you have unbelievable a goal in your head - partnership," said anything’s possible.”Caron. ............................................................

When Braztold Caron that he thought she could qualify for the Olympics, she laughed it off with a friend afterwards.

“I'm a very unassuming per­son," she said. But three months

ago she ran in a race in Stow and believed that the Olympic quali­fying time was within her grasp.

Caron has run locally in the Boston Marathon and other races, including 10 Feaster Fives, the popular Thanksgiving Day road race in Andover. The trick to run­ning a marathon is being able to "manage your head," she said.

Runners must manage dis­comfort such as fatigue, pain, and mental distraction.

As a mother of four, with a dog and a husband who works a lot, worrying about only herself for a few hours isn't tough, she said.

“For me only to have to focus on me - it’s nothing," Caron said.

Her family has been support­ive of her running. “My family is thrilled," she said. “It’s great for

kids to see a parent work towards a goal and succeed.”

Until Caron started taking running seri­ously, she said she did not know the com­mitment it entailed.

“I didn’t fully under­stand or respect the sport,” she said.

The personal trainer and fit­ness instructor hopes that her success can be a model for others

- regardless of their age or place in life.

“I think it’s just great for women or anybody. If you have a goal in your head - anything’s possible.”

The not-so-secret life of Dr. OlansAward-winning physician finds time for funBy Ben Heilman

Andover doctor Richard Olans is on the front line in the battle against the microbe. More than a physician,

Olans divides his time between his patients, his students and the disease-causing germs which he said have the advantage in a war that predates human existence.

Olans’ contributions to this war were rec­ognized recently when he won a clinician award from the Infectious Diseases Society of America - one of two such awards given annually. The society cited his compassion, clinical research, patient education and com­munity service.

They omitted his drawing skills.Olans is a cartoonist and humorist, in

addition to carrying a full patient caseload, serving as an assistant professor at Boston University School of Medicine and running the Infectious Diseases Departments at three Boston-area hospitals.

Olans paints a picture of himself by describing his medical school interviews. “When I was asked what kind of doctor I wanted to be, I told them I wanted to be Dr. Seuss,” he said. He said that answer went over better at some interviews than others, but 30 years later he still counts Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) as one of his idols.

Gary Larson, creator of The Far Side comics, has become a close second.

Growing up in Medford as the son of a general practitioner, Olans said it wasn't long before he knew what he wanted to do with his life. In the seventh grade, he did a microbiology project for a science fair. He said he was taken with microscopic crea­tures with long, exotic names almost imme­diately. But he said he did not want to spend his life in the laboratory in the absence of people. He describes it with a Robin Williams schtick, saying. “1 wanted to work with big people - very big people - and small organisms - teeny-tiny organisms."

Infection finds its way into all branches of medicine, so Olans finds himself working with doctors of all specialties on a variety of cases. He also gets to translate his experi­ence with patients to the laboratory and vice versa. “Fm a liaison between clinicians and

the lab," he said.Olans said the fun of fighting disease is

the ever-changing challenge presented by the germs. “It's always new. What we con­quer today will only mutate into a new prob­lem tomorrow,” he said.

Olans recognizes that germs - which have a generation gap of about five minutes - have the upper hand. "The fact that every single one of us isn't infected every single day is miraculous,” he said.

But Olans doesn't mind making light of it. He likened the disease-causing germs to the Shmoo. the armless bowling pin-shaped creature from cartoonist Al Capp’s Lil' Abner. The Shmoo lived on practically nothing and spread very quickly, threaten­ing human society.

And why not have fun with it? “It's better to be irreverent than irrelevant." said Olans.

In the tradition of Larson, Olans draws bugs and cellular-level creatures in human terms doing human things like going to the movies or shopping for groceries.

Olans also writes nonsense verses a la The New Yorker, and has published a humor essay taking off on James Thurber’s The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

“The Secret Life of a Hospi­tal Epidemiologist...With Apologies to Dr. Mitty” has Olans’ thinly-veiled protagonist Dr. Richardson moving through his day using deductive reason­ing and experience to solve a multitude of problems, from infection to plugged-up toilets to salesmen selling sterile paint.

“That is a very typical day,” said Olans.

In the tradition of Mitty, Olans' character sees himself in romantic terms. Olans’ places him in Kj^ig Arthur’s court, on

the bridge of the Starship Enter­prise and in the shoes of Sher­lock Holmes on a case.

Olans’ said the Holmesian analogy is apt. Holmes' creator Arthur Conan Doyle was a physician and he based his detective character on a medical instructor. Olans said deductive reasoning is important to rule out illnesses.

But Olans said the closest lit­erary likeness is Dr. Seuss’ Bartholomew Cubbins, who was noted for wearing 500 hats.

Olans said his roles at work and at home - he is married to Rita Olans and the couple have two daughters - keeps him changing hats often, which is fine with him.

“I love changing hats,” said Olans.

Andover doctor Richard Olans, a humorist and a cartoonist, draws one-celled creatures performing human activities such as going to the movies. Here some single-celled amoeba-type bugs go to see “Shqpeless in Seattle."

Reading specialist Elly Seavey of South School is one of 10 Literacy Champions statewide. From left are Naomi Bledsoe, Seavey and Molly Machain. working in Ellen Buckley's fourth- grade classroom on Monday, Oct. 20.

hen Ell 11.\ M. Si avey handed out copies of the book Molly’s Pilgrim to a group of second-graders on a recent afternoon. she saw an eagerness that would make any

teacher smile.“I'm going to start it nght now," said student Una O'Toole.“Do we have to read the whole entire book ?" asked Stephen

Moreland.“Yes," Seavey said."Then I'm going to start it today," Moreland said.Over the last four years, Seavey has headed the effort to create a

comprehensive literacy program at South Elementary School with the aim of making children love to read. She was honored this week as one of 10 Literacy Champions statewide at a breakfast in Boston attended by Gov. Mitt Romney.

The newly created award from the Massachusetts Literacy Foun­dation includes a grant to benefit Seavey s program and makes her part of a team that will act as literacy ambassadors to schools and educational programs around the state.

The 35-year veteran of the Andover schools will spend the year discussing her team's techniques - including a lunchtime reading group for advanced students, costumed Reader's Theater perfor­mances; a Reader's Radio activity; a Web site; adult literacy volun­teers; a program where older students read with younger ones before the start of the school day; and a detailed analyses of each child's reading ability.

Like the other activities, the Morning Reading Partners program becomes a pleasure for the students, a motivation and incentive for them to spend more time sharpening their language abilities, Seavey said.

"It's really to develop a love of reading, to make reading a habit on a daily basis to build fluency, and for the older children, that added attribute of being a role model to another child," she said. "There's nothing more joyful for a teacher than to have a child come up and say, ‘Can I be a morning reading partner'?' ”

At a recent meeting of the second-grade group, the students read their favorite pet poems into a play microphone for Reader's Radio, composed a new poem, wrote down questions about the reading and added to their vocabulary lists.

They met in the Literacy Room, a classroom-sized space occu­pied by specialists' desks and low round tables surrounded by child-sized chairs.

On one wall, colorful books in plastic bags filled scores of cub­byholes. each text selected and categorized according to reading level and subject matter.

"Remember the word monotonous?" she asked the students. "That's a hard one to spell. You know why? Because it's mo-no-to- nousf she said, clapping her hands lightly at each syllable. "Is this a monotonous group?"

"No," they said in unison."It's not repeating over and over," said student Eli Sands."What's the opposite of monotonous?" Seavey asked."Boring?""Short?"After hearing a couple of clues, Madison Moulder came up with

the answer: "Exciting.”The Literacy Room is also open to teachers looking for materi­

als to give their classes. Fourth-grade teacher Jennifer Rich, who helped run the lunchtime Reader's Cafe, said Seavey's team has been particularly critical as a budget crunch has strained the staff and led to larger class sizes.

I ll often go in and say I need something for kids to read on such and such a theme, and she’ll go right to the shelves and make suggestions for ways to enhance the curriculum." Rich said. “She understands children, where they are developmental^ and what they are able to do. She helps them to really build well-crafted essay s and express themselves poetically.

"Most importantly, she makes things fun for the students. She has that little microphone, and they really enjoy it.”

Seavey said she shares the award with her literacy team and with the South Elementary principal. Dr. Eileen Wcxrds, one of the peo­ple who nominated her. She said supportive parents have also been key to the program's success.

"! am just so fortunate to work at this school.” she said. “We don't work in isolation. So we are truly a literacy community, in every' sense of the word."

By Ben HeilmanCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS WILE HAVE

seventh-grade math teachers con­dense the second section of the new

"Connected Math Project" curriculum - asection on fractions - so kids can finish it more quickly than they did the program's first section. The announcement came after weeks of parent complaints that the new math program isn't challenging enough for their kids.

Both the first and second sections are considered reviews of Andover students' sixth-grade material.

Assistant Superintendent Marcia O'Neil made the announcement at an information­al meeting about the controversial new math program at West Middle School on Monday night. Approximately 80 parents showed up at the meeting, which was orig­inally scheduled later in the semester, but was moved up after parents' complaints.

O'Neil admitted to parents that the first section of the program had moved slowly because teachers were still learning to teach it. "We're all doing this for the first time,” she said. "We’re going to pick up the pace."

The announcement wasn't enough for some parents, who left the meeting saying the administrators failed to address their concerns. Many parents asked how the schools could tell the program is working while so many students are unhappy with it. Some parents asked how long the schools planned to use the program if parents and kids continued to believe it was failing.

O'Neil said teachers would monitor the program monthly and students would be tested in math on the MCAS test when they got to grade 8. Seventh-grade students are not tested in math on the state exam.

Parents' frustration was apparent throughout the two-hour meeting on Mon­day. Many parents who did not get a chance to speak showed their support for critical questions about the math program by laughing and applauding after questions.

West Middle School Principal Kathy Hammond threatened to end the meeting early if parents grew hostile. “I don't think we need to attack," Hammond said. "Things are getting edgy."

Parents voiced concerns at School Com­mittee meetings in June and July. They said the program eliminated a class for advanced students, and charged that teach­ers and parents were left out of the loop in the planning stages of the program. In Sep­tember. parents of students who would not have been in advanced classes also com­plained that the new program was too slow.

Teacher union representative Kerrie Costello said teachers were not given enough time to prepare for the program and that some feared repercussions if they

spoke their minds about it. O'Neil and Superintendent Claudia Bach have repeat­edly said teachers were involved in the planning of the program, and they say the decision-making process took six to seven years.

At Monday night's meeting, O'Neil said teachers would move quickly through the next section of the program, a review sec­tion on fractions and decimals called “Bits and Pieces 2."

“We don't plan to spend much time on that section at all," she said. O'Neil didn't know how long it would take teachers to get through the section. When she estimat­ed two weeks, some teachers in the room said it would take longer.

Mother Jill Perry asked why the teachers had to cover the section - prescribed for sixth- graders by publisher Pren­tice Hall, and a review for Andover seventh-graders - but O’Neil said it could hurt the process. "We don't want to move so fast that we compromise the design of the program she said.

Perry said afterwards she appreciated the administration’s attempt to educate parents about the program. “But it’s hard to sit and listen to that when we’re wading through sixth-grade mate­

rial (with our kids),” she said.Mom Phyllis Cerullo spoke out against

the program during the meeting. After­wards she described the meeting as a “fias­co.”

“Parents were very upset last night, no questions got answered, again, it was just again, trying to justify this program," she said.

Parent Chris Quartararo supported the change from the old math program, which he said was “lousy - repetitive computa­tion."

He said the problem seemed to be with the implementation of the new program. He said students had spent two weeks writing a poem and four weeks counting squares, and his comments prompted parents' laughter.

Chris Quartararo asks why the new math program is moving so slowly.

Book Review

Dial-A-Ghostby Eva IbbotsonReviewed by John Chartierand James Caron

In the lust few reviews for young read­ers, 14-year-old Andover residents John and James have been honoring one of their favorite authors. Roald Dahl. This week, just in lime for Halloween, the reviewers select a book with a spooky theme.

It is that time of year again. The time when the ghostly glow emitting from the graveyards flickers in a spectral jubilee. The time of year when the silhouette of a grue­some enchantress soars across the glowing harvest moon. It is time for Halloween!

One of our favorite Halloween traditions is sitting by the glowing embers of a mysti­cal fire and reading an enchanting story. This week's book happens to be one of our favorites - Dial-A-Ghost.

Oliver Smith spent 10 years of his life in an orphanage, with no idea that he is the sole inheritor of Helton Hall Manor.Obviously, when he learns of his inheritance, he is thrilled. But his cousins Frieda and Fulton are not nearly as pleased. They are to become the sole inheri­tors of the manor if any­thing should “happen" to Oliver.

So Frieda and Fulton call the Dial-A-Ghost agency to scare Oliver out of the house. But when their shipment of horrific ghouls is sent to a convent, and the convent’s shipment of delightful demons is sent to Helton Hall, everyone’s lives (well, those who have one)

are turned upside down.Both of us believe Eva

Ibbotson is a top author, and we think her books will become classics quickly. Ibbotson has previously writ­ten The Secret of Platform 13, Island of the Aunts, Which Witch?, The Great Ghost Res­cue, and most recently Not Just a Witch.

We give this book a ghoul­ish 8 out of 10 rating. It is full of the atmospheres and feel­ings that will get readers in the mood for Halloween. Creaky old floorboards, bats in the attic and ghosts in the

basements are a few of the things that make this book great.

So climb onto a broomstick and fly to pick up a copy of Dial-A Ghost. It’s a treat!

Your Dental Healthby Richard D. Hopgood, D.M.D., F.A.C.D.

ON THE FRONT LINESDental hygienists play an important role in combating tooth decay and gum disease by,

essentially, fighting on the front lines of decay and disease Dunng regular professional clean­ings. dental hygienists remove soft and hard deposits from teeth, as well as provide other pre­ventive dental care, they examine patients' teeth and gums, recording the presence of dis­eases or abnormalities. They remove calculus, stains, and plaque from teeth and take and develop x-rays. Hygienists apply such cavity-preventive agents as fluorides and prt-and-fissure sealants Moreover, hygienists educate patients on the relationship between diet and good oral health as well as the importance and practice of healthful dental habits that lead to fewer cav­ities and reduce gum inflammation.

A very big threat to dental health, as well as to overall health, is gum disease. And, as usual, the best way to deal with gum disease is to prevent it. with daily brushing, flossing, and seeing your dentist on a regular basis. If its been awhile since your last dental visit, now is the perfect time to call us at 978-475-2431 And as most dental insurance allows two cleanings per year, why not maximize your coverage and arrange an appointment here at 296 Lowell Street (Rt 133). We have easy access off Rt. 93.

P.S. Ask the hygienist to teach you the proper way to floss your teeth if you have any ques­tions.

Seating By Design

New furniture shop offers design expertiseBy Judy Wakefield

If you’ve got a safe, neutral furniture look happening in your home, it may be time for an update.

That’s according to a team of local interior design professionals who make up Seating By Design, a small new furniture store at 63 Park St., where custom orders rule.

The quaint second-floor shop sells seat furniture, like sofas, chairs and bar stools, and will customize any order. The custom order selection includes more than 3.000 fabrics. The shop also has a small selection of accessories, including lamps and end tables, that can match any room.

It’s a niche that needs to be filled, according to the company’s owner, Phyllis Cerullo, who has been on the Andover interior design scene for the past 12 years. She said local clients want more color in their furniture and often want a punch wall or faux painting to liven up living spaces.

“You know that TV show. Trading Spaces, where the homeown­ers leave and come back to a new room?” she asked. “Well, we can do that. We have the experience to make any room look fresh.”

Together, this company's interior design team has some 40 years of experience and includes Linda Hartnett, Paula Bakies, Debra L. Laudani, Lee Reinhold and Sandy Schall, in addition to Cerullo.

“We’re a design co-op, not interior designers,” said Cerullo. “We are a furniture store that provides interior design expertise.”

“We can make rooms more interesting,” chimed in Reinhold, who specializes in faux painting and whose painting samples are displayed on the shop's walls.

Potential customers have a chance to check out the store tomor­row, Friday, Oct. 24 when it officially opens. These designing women are hosting two grand opening receptions, serving coffee and pastries from 10 a.m. to noon while wine and appetizers will be served from 7 to 9 p.m.

The new shop is located above Pasta Villagio in the Park Street Village development.

By Andrea Gregory

More than 100 women and a handful of men ven­tured out in last Wednes­day night’s windstorm to admire the jewelry of David Yurman and meet the maker at Royal Jewel­ers on Main Street.

For a while Yurman stood at the door, welcom­ing his Andover clientele, but soon he was engaged in conversations and lost in a sea of jewelry buyers and browsers in the back room of the store.

The back room show­cases the rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches of David Yurman all the time. About once a year the man known for creat­ing accessible jewelry suitable for everyday wear stops by the Andover shop.

“That’s our David Yur­man store within a store said Steven Leed, who co­owns Royal Jewelers with his sister, Paula Leed. “Almost every design David has is within that room.”

Steven Leed said the night at Royal Jewelers was a success, as almost everyone who attend­ed bought a Yurman piece, dou­bling the sales produced by pre­vious years' Yurman events. He said a great deal of the success comes from Yurman being so open and able to embrace crowds of admirers.

“He was just really chatty,” said Steven Leed. “Here’s a guy who is the No. 1 jeweler in the United States, who flew in on his private jet and was very down-to-earth and cool with everybody.”

“What’s nice is you can real­ly stop and talk to him,” said Audrie Bloom, of 3 Durham Drive. “I think his jewelry is beautiful. I like the fact that he uses different stones.”

Last Wednesday was Bloom's second encounter with Yurman in Andover. She said

last year she felt a little guilty stealing him away for 45 min­utes. Bloom said Yurman has a way of making a conversation feel comfortable and. before she knew it, she was confessing to him she had been studying gems and stones - often on a home shopping channel. According to Bloom, the two had a good laugh when Yurman admitted he watches the chan­nel, too.

As wine was poured and plates of appetizers made their way around the room, Yurman could be spotted signing velvet jewelry bags and engaging in dozens of conversations. Yur­man blended in with the crowd, and unless shoppers knew who they were looking for, it was difficult to pick out the man of the evening.

"He’s a real person, he watches stupid TV shows like everyone else," said Amy Gold­

man, of 22 Belknap Drive and a friend of Bloom.

Goldman, who was sporting some of her Yurman pieces, remarked on how fitting she believes they are for everyday use. Fans like Goldman also believe Yurman accessories have a distinctive look. His items might feature bold gems of bright colors, a simple string of black pearls, watches with hot pink straps or silver jewelry with a rustic look that is occa­sionally touched with classic yellow gold.

Yurman said his look has been evolving since the 1980s when he started his business.

“It’s distinctively mine," said Yurman. “For me, it’s an art form."

Yurman declares he has been an artist since his high school days. He said he spent more than a decade as a sculptor before making it big. Jewelry, at

first, was a side pursuit. “So easy to make and turn into cash," he said about his start in the jewelry world. “It wasn't an overnight success.”

So where does Yurman's suc­cess stand now?

"(I’m) probably the leading jeweler in America. That’s what they say,” Yurman said with a humble smirk and a bit of a laugh.

According to Yurman, his jewelry fits with an Andover lifestyle.

“This is just a great market for us," he said. “It’s so wear­able. It’s not something you have to worry' about putting it in the safe and taking it out.”

Yurman said he enjoys his stops in Andover and other com­munities for a chance to mix and mingle with his customers. “I see what appeals to them," said Yurman. “It’s also nice feed­back."
