Bartlett teachers to get $1,000 longevity stipends on top of proposed pay raises

BY LLOYD JONES

February is Puppy Month

MT. WASHINGTON VALLEY’S DAILY NEWSPAPER

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

BARTLETT — Most Bartlett teachers will be getting $2,700 raises each year over the next two years if voters approve a new two-year contract between the teachers'

union and the Bartlett School Board.

With or without a new contract, many teachers will automatically receive $1,000 as a longevity stipend — something they've been receiving for years separate from their salaries.

If the contract goes through, 23 of

Bartlett's 32 teachers will be in line to get more than $10,800 in raises over four years — $2,700 in each of the last two years and $2,700 for each of the next two years.

Musical presidents

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– DIGEST––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

(NY Times) — President Obama sang again on Tuesday night, letting loose a few lines of “Sweet Home Chicago” in the finale of a tribute to the blues at the White House. It was the encore to his Apollo Theater snippet of Al Green at a fund-raiser on Jan. 19, and while no one will be suggesting he give up his day job for a pop career, he did fairly well.

With his few phrases of song, Obama joins the list of presidents who have gone public as musicians, from Harry S. Truman’s love of classical piano through Bill Clinton’s tenor saxophone.

But there’s risk and reward in any presidential display of musicianship. If every presidential act is symbolic, then showing an interest in music humanizes the chief executive, claiming a connection to culture and emotion. But performing in public — especially in the YouTube era — means that an amateur faces comparison to professionals, while the choice of repertory also gets scrutinized.

The repertory for political figures has changed radically over the decades, moving from Eurocentric high culture to American popular culture — or, perhaps, from elitism to the vernacular, as presidents have been demystified, and pollsters ask voters about which candidate they’d prefer to share a beer with. Both Truman and Richard M. Nixon studied classical piano.

Santorum left on defensive over vote for education law

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

LONDON (NY Times) — A United Nations panel concluded on Thursday that “gross human rights violations” had been ordered by the Syrian authorities as state policy at “the highest levels of the armed forces and the government,” amounting to crimes against humanity.

The panel of three investigators, led by Paulo Pinheiro of Brazil, did not release the names of the officials it had identified as bearing responsibility. Instead, the panel delivered the names in a sealed envelope to the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva.

The 72-page report said that the insurgent

Free Syrian Army, made up of defectors from forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad, had also committed abuses, but those were “not comparable in scale and organization to those carried out by the state.”

The investigators said the report was based on 369 interviews with victims, witnesses, defectors and other people with “inside knowledge” of the situation in Syria. They also examined photographs, video recordings and satellite imagery to corroborate some witness accounts.

The investigators said they were not allowed to enter Syria to conduct inquiries themselves.

MIAMI (NY Times) — President Obama, confronted by the political perils of surging gas prices in an election year, defended his efforts to wean the United States off imported oil on Thursday, even as he conceded there was little he could do to immediately ease the pain at the pump.

Speaking to students at the University of Miami,

in a swing state where the average price of gasoline is $3.69 a gallon, Obama said: “Just like last year, gas prices are climbing across the country — this time, it’s happening even earlier. And when gas prices go up, it hurts everybody.”

The president offered what he called an “all-of-the-above” response, based on increased

domestic oil production, development of alternative fuel sources, and more efficient vehicles.

And he drew a sharp contrast with Republicans, whom he ridiculed for recycling a “three-point plan for $2 gas.”

“Step one is to drill, and step two is to drill, and step three is to keep drilling,” Obama said.

PHOENIX (NY Times)— Former Senator Rick Santorum found himself on the defensive on Thursday after a testy presidential debate on Wednesday night, forced to explain an admission that he had voted for the No Child Left Behind education law even though “it was against the principles I believed in.”

The candid acknowledgement — Santorum said he had “taken one for the team” — threatened to undercut a central message of his campaign: that he is the unimpeachable conservative in the Republican nominating contest, guided by deep-seated values, not the political currents of the moment.

Mitt Romney and his supporters, sensing a new political opening just days before crucial primaries in Arizona and Michigan, repeatedly assailed the remarks on Thursday, suggesting that they had reflected a lack of personal and political conviction, a charge typically leveled against Romney.

Icy parking lot unsafe, apartment residents say

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, February 24, 2012— Page 3

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — An icy apartment parking lot on Grove Street makes running errands dangerous for elderly and disabled residents and their visitors, according a woman who delivers Meals on Wheels to the complex and several residents who wish to remain anonymous.

The president of the property management company says he's aware of the problem and is doing what he can to keep the parking lot clear and safe.

"It's not in our best interest to have anyone slip and fall," said Foxfire's Stephen Dupre.

Christie Catino, who has been a volunteer driver for Gibson Center's Meals on Wheels program for 11 years, says the parking lot for Pinewood Apartments is dangerous because portions are covered with thick sheets of ice. The Pinewood Apartments is a 32-bedroom complex for the elderly and disabled.

The parking lot is icy almost every year, says Catino. Despite this winter's mild weather, the ice is still a problem. Catino says she's fallen while making deliveries, as has her 17-year-old son. Cantino made complaints to Foxfire Property Management in Concord, which oversees

Pinewood Apartments.

"I've done everything in my power to help my clients with the unsafe parking lot conditions," she said.

"People are afraid to walk ot of their apartment building."

This winter the ice got so thick that in certian spots it completely enveloped a soda can. In contrast, Catino says other senior apartment parking lots in Conway that she delivers to aren't so icy.

Residents The Conway Daily Sun spoke with confirmed that the parking lot ice is a problem. Residents said they have fallen or knew someone who had.

"It's a mess," one elderly woman said of her parking lot.

Another resident says the ice creates big ruts that makes her worry about the impact on her car.

Arthur Drew, who lives at another Foxfire property called Millbrook, says he has fallen twice in his parking lot. Arthur used to live in Pinewood and says the parking lot is better at Millbrook. Drew is wheelchair bound but can stand for short periods of time by using two canes.

"You feel like you're in jail," said Drew.

Catino said her car was damaged recently when she drove over an ice divot at Millbrook.

Stephen Shackford has driven a plow for 30 years. He said Foxfire could scrape the ice and put down some salt and calcium. Shackford's mother-in-law lived at Pinewood and is moving into the county's nursing home.

"There's no reason for it to be like what it is," said Shackford.

Dupre, of Foxfire Property Management, said the parking lot has an ice issue for two reasons: It's shaded by large trees, and the drainage is poor. Salt doesn't work well enough to solve the problem. Foxfire has struggled with ice for 20 of the 27 years the company has managed the property.

"We probably saved too many trees," said Dupre, adding that out of 50 properties Pinewood is their most difficult parking lot to manage.

Too much salt can have the unwanted impact of killing the

lawn. Sand wasn't helping because the ice would melt during the day and then freeze back over. When it's warm enough Foxfire will bring out a heavy equipment to chip the ice.

Another issue with clearing the parking lot is having to move resident cars out of the way. Foxfire tried volunteering to move people's cars but that isn't the best option because it presents liability issues, said Dupre.

Gibson Center executive director George Cleveland went to look at the parking lot on Thursday. He noticed there were some workers chipping ice on the walks. He said portions of parking lot were still icy. The Gibson Center has its parking lot salted and sanded multiple times per day when needed.

"It really should be kept clear," said Cleveland of the parking lot at Pinewood apartments.

EDITORIAL

In Tough Times, Bartlett Teachers Are Asking For Too Much Bartlett’s long-held mantra of “the greatest little town on earth” is no truer than for teachers at the Josiah Bartlett Elementary School.

In the last six years only one teacher has left, and during the past two years 23 out of 32 teachers have received $5,400 raises.

A new contract up for voter approval at the school meeting March 6 calls for more raises: 23 teachers would get $2,700 raises each of the next two years. Incredulously, the Bartlett School Board unanimously supports it.

And even if the contract is rejected, 20 teachers will receive $1,000 longevity stipends.

We value good, experienced teachers as much any anyone, but these raises aren’t realistic in these diffi cult recessionary times, and aren’t fair to the taxpayers, many of whom are long-suffering financially.

A Google search of “teachers laid off” yields an endless list of stories about teacher layoffs. Just last week, 7,000 teachers in New York were let go.

Closer to home, how many people who don’t work for a municipality have received regular raises in the last few years?

Twenty-one (up from 20 in 2010) Bartlett teachers made more than $50,000 in 2011; 17 of those (up from 15 in 2010) made more than $62,000; six of them (up from two in 2010) made more than $70,000. The highest paid teacher within the Conway School District makes $64,000.

If the new contract is approved one teacher’s salary will be higher than $80,000 excluding benefits while five will make more than $75,000.

That’s more money than the principal, who works a 215day schedule compared to 186 days for Bartlett teachers, makes at Pine Tree Elementary School, and it is more money than is being proposed for a new principal at John Fuller School in North Conway.

The Bartlett Fire Chief, who works year round, received a salary of $42,662 this year, which is less than what 24 Bartlett teachers make. Bartlett’s police chief’s salary is $61,703, which is less than the salaries of 15 Bartlett teachers.

None of Bartlett’s 14 town employees receive longevity stipends.

It’s time for Bartlett taxpayers to say enough already and vote down the contract on March 6. It’s time for the teachers and the school board to realize they are asking for too much.

The worst time in two decades to initiate revaluation To the editor: My name is “Hobo” Ed Furlong and I am running for Bartlett Selectman next month against candidate Erik Corbett and incumbent D. Garland.

In response to Mr. Corbett’s letter to the editor in the paper dated Feb. 23, with regard to the question he raised about where the $900,000 that the selectmen saved in not doing property reevaluations for the past 17 years went. I can answer that question: The money went out in attorney fees for the town to suppress local small businesses such as Mr. Corbett’s Good Tail Lobster, my business, Lil’ Man Snowmobile Rentals, Bart’s Deli and many other businesses. The Town of Bartlett has continued to use the citizen’s tax dollars to fight with small businesses regarding trivial matters such as banner flags, set back violations, and other various “non-compliance” issues designed to harass small business owners and hinder their business.

Two thirds of the selectmen’s office in Bartlett (Gene Chandler and Doug Garland) have been entrenched in their seats for many years (30 and 12 respectively). Undoubtedly, many Bartlett citizens are angry that these current selectmen have chosen the

worst time in two decades to initiate a revaluation of the property values.

We, as a town and as individuals, are struggling just to heat our homes and now are faced with hugely inflated increases to our annual tax bill despite the ongoing real estate market slump.

Most Bartlett citizens are now burdened with an unnecessary expense during these tough times. We as a town need to re-evaluate who we want making the decisions that affect our pocketbooks. We certainly need more transparency as to where our tax dollars are going, perhaps you could go to the Bartlett website to see … Oh no, wait, the Bartlett website has not been updated in years and really has no valuable information for its citizens other than contact information.

To find out more about your property taxes and get a breakdown and how they are revaluated do a Google search for the “Town of New Boston’s Property Tax Explanation.” It is a shame that I have send Bartlett citizens to another town’s website to get a relevant tax explanation.

Eliminating budget committee authority is wrong path To the editor: One of the underpinnings of our government is the idea of checks and balances. Our government, with its three branches, is designed to prevent each from overstepping its authority. In our town, the budget committee plays a role similar to the legislative branch, when it comes to financial matters. They provide an important check to the proposed budgets. The suggestion we need to eliminate the budget committee, for whatever reason, goes against this principal. Without a strong budget committee, the executive boards would have no check on the budgets they send to the voters.

After last year’s budget season I understand the concern the community has about the committee. But many have missed the fantastic job the reconstituted committee did this year. Seventeen members worked together to make sure the various budgets were financially responsible and met the needs of our community. But, to make the committee work, people need to fill the seats

on it. Fiscal and school “hawks” as well as moderates must participate to make sure the budget committee continues to work effectively.

Eliminating the authority of the budget committee is not the path we should take. Do we want to teach our children that eliminating a “check” in the government process is the best way to address a concern? Shouldn’t we be teaching them the best way to do this is to participate in the process? If change must be made to the budget committee, I suggest eliminating the option the budget committee has to change either the school or town budget. Instead, if the committee votes against a budget, the committee and board who submitted the budget must meet and come to a negotiated agreement on the final budget. This way, both the board’s and the budget committee’s thoughts are heard. This process would still provide an adequate check and allow for the executive board’s views to be heard.

Democratic Party caucuses will be held on Sunday To the editor: The Maine Democratic Party caucuses will be held on Sunday, Feb. 26, at many locations throughout our region. The caucus is open to registered Democrats and we are looking forward to greeting our long-time supporters as well as new faces motivated by the opportunity to participate in the 2012 election. Those who are not registered to vote or unenrolled in a party who wish to participate must register in advance at their town office, or arrive at the caucus location 30 minutes ahead of the advertised time to do so. The business of the caucus will be presidential preference voting, election of delegates to the June state convention, and election of town and county Democratic committees. Additional activities will include remarks by candidates or their representatives, supporting candidates by

signing nominating petitions or providing Maine Clean Elections qualifying contributions. There will also be collections of non-perishable items for local food pantries, and the opportunity to be entered in a drawing sponsored by the Maine Democratic Party to win two tickets to a reception in March with President Obama in Portland. The caucus is a great time to get together with other Democrats and to participate in a critical building block of our democracy.

A complete list of caucus locations and times is available at www. mainedems.org/caucus, or at www. oxforddems.org, or in our legal notice advertisement in the Feb. 22 issue of the Sun Journal. Those who do not have access to those sources of information, may call me at 875-2116.

Dorothy Alice (Trefethen) Pratt

Dorothy Alice (Trefethen) Pratt, 91, of North Conway, died peacefully at Memorial Hospital on Feb. 21, 2012 surrounded by her family. Dorothy had been living at the Mineral Springs Care and Rehabilitation Center under the care of a warm and loving staff. She was born in Lynn, Massachusetts on Nov. 5, 1920.

She was the daughter of Percy and Christine Trefethen.

Dorothy graduated as a Horace Mann Scholar from Worcester Classical High School in Worcester, Mass. in 1937. She was hired directly from high school by the Paul Revere Insurance Company. She took great pride in her work and truly enjoyed the camaraderie of her peers. She met her husband through a work colleague, Priscilla Pratt, who later became her sister in law. Arnold T. Pratt and Dorothy were married on Oct. 16, 1948 in Worcester, Mass.

Arnold and Dorothy started their family in Worcester, Mass. and in 1958 they moved their young family to Westborough, Massachusetts. In 1986, they retired to the Mount Washington Valley. These were the years when they traveled extensively, visiting and appreciating the beauty of the United States and Canada. In their earlier years, family vacations centered around exploring the beauty and charm of their native New England. Dorothy’s children loved these family vacations which were filled with many memorable adventures. Most of these trips were spent with Arnold’s sister and family. They shared many

special times in Vermont, Prince Edward Island, Monhegan Island and their treasured villages of Prospect Harbor and Ogunquit, Maine.

Both Dorothy and Arnold instilled a deep appreciation of our natural world and to this day is a gift treasured now and forever by their children.

Dorothy was predeceased by her beloved husband of 57 years, Arnold T. Pratt. She is survived by her children, Helen Christine Pratt, of Seattle, Wash., Elizabeth “Lassie” Dorothy Pratt, of North Conway, and her partner, Richard Viau, of Londonderry, Tyler Pratt and his partner, Normand Bonsant, both of Ogunquit, Maine; proud grandmother of one grandchild, Benjamin Tyler DeBenedictis, of Burlington, Vt.; her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Priscilla and Loring Briggs, of Worcester, Mass.; her nephew, Steven Pratt Briggs; nieces, Barbara Priscilla Ball and Melissa Briggs Lefferts.

A private family service will be held at the Furber and White Funeral Home on Saturday, Feb. 25, followed by a gathering of friends and family at 1:30 p.m. in the Bretton Woods Dining Room at Mineral Springs Care and Rehabilitation Center in North Conway.

On Saturday, May 12, at 11 a.m., a graveside memorial service will take place at the Kearsarge Cemetery. Following the service, a reception will be held to gather family and friends.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Dorothy’s memory to the Shooting Star Fund, P.O. Box 124, North Conway, NH, 03860.

ity stipend, a teacher must work 10 consecutive years within the Bartlett School District. In addition to the 20 teachers receiving the stipend, a 21st teacher will receive $600 for working two-thirds of the time.

The average salary for all teachers in the state in 2010-11, according to N.H. Department of Education, was $52,706, excluding benefits.

Bartlett's average teacher salary is above the state average, coming in at $56,990 while Conway's average teacher salary for 170.2 teachers is $40,857, excluding benefits. Twentyone (up from 20 in 2010) Bartlett teachers made over $50,000 in 2011; 17 of those (up from 15 in 2010) made over $62,000; six of them (up from two in 2010) made over $70,000.

If the new contract is approved March 6, the teachers will receive $5,400 in salary increases as well as $2,000 in stipends over the next two years. That will bring one teacher's salary to over $80,000 excluding benefits while five will be over $75,000.

Annual school meeting is Tuesday, March 6, at 6:30 p.m. in the gymnasium at Josiah Bartlett Elementary School.

Just four citizens turned out to the school board's budget hearing Feb. 7, and, while the operating budget is down, due largely to a drop in health insurance and special education costs, the bulk of the discussion during the 30-minute hearing focused on the pending teachers' contract.

The state's average salary for starting teachers with BA degrees was $33,603, excluding benefits, in 201011. Bartlett ranks 153rd in minimum starting teacher salary out of 160 districts, according to the New Hampshire Department of Education, coming in at $28,000.

Under the previous contract, teachers received back-to-back $2,700 raises (plus $1,000 in longevity stipends each of those two years) and would have continued to do so as it

was one of the first contracts in the state negotiated under the controversial Evergreen Law, which was repealed last year by New Hampshire legislators.

The raises will continue, however, under the latest proposed new twoyear contract, negotiated by Dan Perley and Ryan Murphy for the school board and Carol Penza, Vance Pickering and Kurt Erickson for the Bartlett Education Association. Twenty-three of the 32 teachers at Josiah Bartlett will received $2,700 raises in each of the next two years.

In essence, three-quarters of the teaching staff will have received a $10,800 raise if they remain with the district into 2014.

A new teacher on the lowest step ladder would receive a $500 raise.

Bartlett has not had any teachers leave in the past four years. According to last year's annual school report, 10 teachers have worked at Josiah Bartlett Elementary School at least 23 years while one member has been teaching at the school for 45 years.

The school district has hired just one teacher in the past six years, a two-thirds time music teacher. Counting the music post, Bartlett has just five other positions under 10 years in the district.

Health insurance had jumped over 50 percent in the previous three years until this year's slight dip. Two years ago the community absorbed a 27.5 percent increase in health insurance (an increase of $168,682 over the prior year).

Bartlett teachers pay a zero deductible for their health insurance and will continue to do so until a new contract is reached.

Switching to a district-funded $500 deductible, which the Conway teachers' union agreed to do last year, has been explored by the school board, but members and school Superintendent Carl Nelson said there really are no financial savings. see TEACHERS page 10

Because of the size of the teachers' union, which is less than 100 members, Nelson explained there really is no savings by going to the $500 deductible.

Because of the language Bartlett carries in its contract, board member Dan Perley said the board has a clause that states taxpayers will pay 80 percent of the lowest cost plan, and if there is a lower rate for a comparable plan, the board has the option to switch.

In 1995 when principal Joe Voci was initially hired, there were roughly 340 students and 22 regular education teachers at the K-8 school, creating an average class size of about 15 students. Next year's projection is for 244 students and 32 teachers for a 7.6-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio.

School principal Joe Voci said he is proud of the staff he has and appreciates the long-term commitment the educators have made to this community.

"We have a lot of experienced staff who have stayed and are on the top of their game," Voci said. "They've been here 20 to 30 years, and then we have another big group that's been here between six and 12 years, which I believe is a really good thing. They've come here, built homes and stayed in the community. One of the reasons we've been so successful is we have a core of faculty — they get it and are really committed. We have awesome people in this building."

The Bartlett School Board voted Feb. 7 to unanimously support the contract.

Shakir files for another term on budget committee CONWAY — Day two of the filing period for town and school offices saw three incumbents return to town hall to declare their candidacy.

Ray Shakir became the first of four incumbents to file for a three-year HOCKEY from page one

senior Kevin Murphy, who netted a pair of goals, became the school's alltime leading scorer, surpassing Griffin Meador (Class of 2010). He now sits on 159 career points.

The loss dropped the Eagles to 15-1 (16-1 overall) in Division III play, while Pelham-Windham improved to 13-3 and moved into third place in the standings.

"I don't want to take anything away from Pelham-Windham," Michael Lane, Eagles' head coach, said, "but I just don't think we had the eye of the tiger. While I don't think we played terrible, I don't think we played with a sense of desperation either. You've got to give credit to (the Wolfpack) for coming to play.

"Now we've got to get back to work and concentrate on Souhegan (10-52) this Saturday (at Ham Arena at 6 p.m.)," he added. "We need to win this game if we want to hold onto the No. 1 seed."

Prior to Saturday's face-off, Kennett will recognize its seven seniors — John Bishop, Gabe Lee, Matt Kelly, Chris King, Murphy, Cody Richard and Gabe Rivera — for their contributions to the program.

"It's a special group," Lane said.

"Hopefully, we'll get a good crowd out

to support the team. We'll do a short presentation, then we'll get down to the task at hand."

Lane has a ton of respect for Souhegan.

"They're a very good team," he said.

"They have five losses but two of them were against Alvirne and both of those were in overtime. Plus, they lost 6-4 at Pelham-Windham and the final goal was an empty-netter in the closing seconds. They've got a dynamic power-play, so we've got to stay out of the (penalty) box."

Kennett out-shot Pelham-Windham in the first period 12-9, yet found itself trailing after the opening 15 minutes 1-0. the Wolfpack struck with 6:37 left in the first period.

The Eagles were able to knot the score just 46 seconds into the second period when Murphy scored on a breakaway and became the school's all-time leading scorer.

"It's really a great accomplishment," Lane said.

Kennett fans had little time to celebrate the milestone as the Wolfpack reclaimed the lead 63 seconds later.

Murphy tied the game again two minutes and 14 seconds later when Connor Todd sent Dillon Smith and Murphy in on a two-on-one and the sharpshooter made no mistake.

Penalties plagued Kennett from that point on with the Eagles picking up four penalties in a row and were forced to play shorthanded for eight minutes.

Pelham-Windham cashed in on two of its power-play opportunities to secure the victory.

The game-winner came with 4:42 left in the second period, and the visitors added an insurance goal with 2:15 to play in the period.

"We got into penalty trouble and they capitalized on their chances," Lane said.

Pelham-Windham out-shot Kennett 16-8 in the second period. The Eagles out-shot the Wolfpack in the third but never scored again.

"We left a lot of chances on the ice," Lane said. "We've got a lot of work ahead to prepare for Souhegan. They're coming here looking at a chance to get a home playoff game if they win. A win should get them fourth, but a loss will probably push them to fifth. This game is going to be a real big test for us."

Lane praised the play of junior winger James Gallo and Bishop in goal.

"James was fantastic, he was all over the place," he said. "Bish made a number of big saves that kept us in the game. He gave up four goals, but there was nothing he could do on any of them."

Questions swirl around legality of budget committee articles

BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The warrant articles looking to turn the budget committee into an advisory-only board appear legal, according to the town’s attorney, but he still has a number of questions that need answering.

Peter Malia said he has asked attorneys at the Local Government Center to review the articles and the charter. “Basically I’m going back and forth with them right now. The legality is still a work in progress.”

The town charter requires the town have a budget committee, but it does not lay out whether that committee’s powers are advisory or statutory. Supporters of the petition say that gives the voters the right to change the role of the committee if they so choose.

Their petitioned articles, however, have the potential to put the town in direct violation of the char-

ter. The question is posed in two articles — one that would rescind the budget committee, and a second that would replace it with an advisory board.

If just the first article passed, however, the town would be in direct violation of the charter.

“We have to emerge from town meeting with a budget committee,” Malia said, “either advisory or official.”

If the first article passes and the second fails, he said, “we either have to declare the vote on [the second article] null and void,” or the selectmen would have to change the charter. There is even the potential that if the second article has to be declared null and void the first article will also be declared null and void, he said, so there are still a lot of questions to be addressed.

The second article already directly contradicts the charter on the makeup of the committee. The char-

ter requires 12 at-large members, while the petition seeks to reduce that number to six. It is unclear what that discrepancy would mean if the article were adopted.

The selectmen, meanwhile, briefly discussed the effort at their meeting on Tuesday.

“There are people who are wondering if this is something the selectmen are in favor of,” selectman Crow Dickinson said. “How do we feel about it, people are asking me.”

The question has come up, he said, because of selectman Michael DiGregorio’s prominent role in the effort.

DiGregorio said he had authored the articles, but that he was not speaking for the board when he did so.

“You certainly have the right to give your opinion,” he said. “My hope is that on deliberative night we’ll be able to debate this.”

Commissioner says somebody broke into file cabinet, opened sealed letter

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

OSSIPEE — County commissioner Asha Kenney believes someone snuck into her locked file cabinet in the commission's office to open a sealed letter.

Kenney said she reported the incident to the sheriff's office and another "authority" she declined to name.

Kenney said the incident took place a few weeks ago inside an office the commissioners share at the Carroll County administration building. Kenney said she locked the sealed letter inside the cabinet and when she returned the letter had been slit open.

"I don't know who went into it but someone went into it," said Kenney.

Kenney said she got the file cabinet from the sheriff's office. Kenny said there must have been another

key because someone was able to unlock the cabinet.

Commission chairman David Sorensen suggested Kenney could keep her documents in another cabinet in the commission office. He said that cabinet had two keys.

"I want to have my own lock and bring in my own two keys," replied Kenney.

But Sorensen suggested that posed a problem.

"If something happens and unfortunately you get into an accident and get killed how do we get into that filing cabinet?" Sorensen asked.

In that case, Kenney said someone could drill the cabinet open.

Sorensen also asked Kenney if she trusted him and commissioner Dorothy Solomon.

"I don't think there's a lot of trust," said Kenney adding Sorensen didn't report the "break-in" when she told him about it.

The letter pertained to an employee complaint in 2010, said Kenney. She said Sorensen gave it to her when she asked for similar letters from 2011.

Kenney said other things have gone missing since she was elected.

Earlier in the meeting Kenney asked why Sorensen made a $500 charge on the county credit card for registration for a National Association of Counties conference. Further Kenney said she wasn't aware the credit card even existed.

Sorensen replied that as the president of the New Hampshire Association of Counties, he's going to a conference in Washington D.C. in December. He said the expense would be reimbursed. Sorensen said he used the county credit card because the National Association of Counties didn't accept his personal credit card.

"I'm not going on county dollars," said Sorensen.

Fryeburg man pushes town audit petition Page 12 — THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, February 24, 2012

BY DAYMOND STEER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — A petition calling for a forensic audit of the town's books is being pushed by a former budget committee member.

Bill Harriman, 56, sat on the budget committee from 2008 to 2011. During that time he noticed various "discrepancies" in the town's books. Harriman said he got motivated to investigate after controversy erupted over a recent special town meeting where officials asked voters to deem part of the downtown a slum in order to apply for $150,000 in federal funds for new sidewalks and other improvements.

"The three selectmen would not reappoint me (to the budget committee) because they accused me of negativity," said Harriman.

Harriman alleges the clearest example of such a

discrepancy was in the 2010 protection equipment and fire department truck budgets. According to Harriman, $94,962 that voters never appropriated was moved into the protection equipment fund. Then Harriman alleges that $100,322 was moved out of protection equipment and into the fire truck fund, which was brought to $118,322.

Harriman says the fire truck capital reserve fund originally had about $12,000. So over $5,000 seems to have come from nowhere, he said, and no one from the state government can explain the discrepancy.

"There's no state oversight over our town office — none," said Harriman.

Harriman says there's a discrepancy about where the $118,000 went after it was put into the fire truck fund. He said at a March meeting a selectman told him the money was mistakenly moved to the general fund while Jackson said it was mistakenly spent.

Harriman said there are problems with other accounts.

But town manager Sharon Jackson says Harriman doesn't seem to understand what happened with the money. Officials found claims Harriman makes cannot be be substantiated. She said town officials have spent a lot of time trying to explain things to him but have had no success.

"Everything is where it's supposed to be," said Jackson.

Jackson also said in the past some mistakes were made with those accounts that Harriman referenced.

Those mistakes have been corrected, she said.

At the end of fiscal year 2009, there was $12,000 in the fire department capital reserve account which should have been in the fire truck capital reserve fund, said Jackson. At the end of fiscal year 2010, the $12,000, and another $6,000 that had been appropriated was moved into the truck fund. The capital reserve fund was eliminated.

"The FD truck fund and the FD capital reserve were actually the same account, which caused part of the confusion," said Jackson. "The auditor combined the two to be called FD truck fund, which was the intent of the money appropriated."

There was nothing nefarious going on with the town's books, said Jackson.

Officials transferred $100,322 ($94,962 plus $5,360) into the fire truck fund because that money had been incorrectly booked to other accounts. The $94,962 was money that accumulated because bills were being paid from the wrong accounts.

"If this money had been expensed from the accounts it should have been, there would have been zero balances," said Jackson. "Instead, these accounts showed balances at the end of the fiscal years that lapsed into the general fund. This booking error never changed the cash balance."

The petition circulated by Harriman calls for an independent entity to do the forensic audit. Harriman needs 10 percent of the voters to sign the petition.

The audit would cost $10,000 to $15,000, according to Harriman. The petition calls for anyone found guilty of criminal activity to be held responsible for costs the town incurred and to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

There are 2,740 registered voters in Fryeburg.

Therefore, Harriman would need 274 signatures. On Tuesday afternoon Harriman had about 50.

"I'm hoping for more than that," said Harriman.

Maine State Auditor Neria Douglass said the state law allows town residents to petition for a post audit, which looks at the overall financial health of the town. That's the same type of audit the town already gets yearly. A forensic audit is much more costly and detailed. Forensic audits are used to look for evidence of a crime, she said.

ALBANY — A man was killed early Thursday morning when his pickup truck went off the road on Route 16 and collided with a tree. State Police are withholding the man’s identity until his family can be notified.

“The preliminary investigation revealed that the vehicle had been attempting to pass another vehicle in the legal passing zone when the operator lost control of the vehicle and drove off the roadway and collided with a tree,” according to State Police Lt. William Magee.

The accident occurred near Nickerson Road at around 6:33 a.m. Traffic both northbound and southbound was diverted around the scene, said Magee.

The man died at the scene.

The preliminary investigation shows speed, weather and roadway conditions were possible factors in the crash.

State Police was assisted by the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office and the Tamworth Police Department. The investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information is asked to call N.H. State Police at 223-8838.

Tin Mountain hosts author Michael Wojtech Saturday ALBANY — Join the Tin Mountain staff on Thursday, March 1, for a birding trip to Plum Island, one of the region’s primer winter birding locations. The first stop ion this annual Tin Mountain migration is the Merrimack River nears Salisbury, Mass. where bald eagles, great cormorants, golden-eye ducks, and mergansers are among the local inhabitants. After a brief stop at Joppa Flats to view shorebirds and ducks, it’s on to the Parker U.S. Wildlife Refuge on Plum Island, and to Salisbury Beach, where participants are sure to make numerous unique sightings.

“If you feel like you know all the birds at your birdfeeders by name, this is a great opportunity to see some new avian friends,” said Tin Mountain executive director Michael Cline. “This is a great birding trip because we always have unusual sightings.”

This is an all day birding trip, and participants should bring warm cloths, lunch, and binoculars (or borrow a pair from Tin Mountain). The trip will leave from the Tin Mountain Conservation Center on Bald Hill Road in Albany at 7:30 a.m. Individuals with all levels of birding experience are encouraged to come along.

MACDONALD CONWAY /BRIDGTON

Set during the late 1920s into the early 1930s, “The Artist” marks the transition from silent film to talkies.

George Valentin (Jean Dujardin), like many silent actors of the time, goes from being a huge star to unemployed once talkies gain popularity. In his place, Peppy Miller (Bérénice Bejo), an actress he helped get her first job, rises to fame. George struggles with his pride as Peppy offers to help him.

Of course, silent films aren’t truly silent as they have music. What they lack is spoken dialogue and realistic sound effects. This means that silent actors had to be very expressive and that the film score was even more important in getting across a sense of tone and mood. “The Artist” has an excellent score by Ludovic Bource that alternates from light-hearted whimsy to wistful melancholy. The score even quotes Bernard Hermann’s score for “Vertigo” to interesting effect.

Dujardin is an actor who seems like he was born in the wrong era.

He seamlessly fits into the silent film format. He makes George part Charlie Chaplin, part Douglas Fairbanks and part Gene Kelly. With a broad smile and expressive face, he is effortlessly charismatic. He is paired with an adorable dog named Uggie who, excuse the cliche, will melt hearts.

Bejo, who like Dujardin has a bright smile and the ability to say everything with just a look, also seems made for silent film. John Goodman, who plays a movie studio head, is clearly relishing the opportunity to be broadly expressive. He has a great moment when he begrudgingly concedes to one of Peppy’s wishes.

“The Artist” does an excellent job of emulating the style of the silent film era, but some critics of the film have claimed that you’d be better off watching the classic work of Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd and others.

It is true that “The Artist” doesn’t best classic silent film, but it is a good entry point. Writer/director Michel Hazanavicius is also using the silent film format to comment on silent film in a way that the originals could not.

There is a dream sequence in which Dujardin’s George can’t speak, but suddenly the world around him does have sound. It is brilliant allegory for the transition from silent to sound movies.

Many actors could no longer work because they had terrible speaking voices. Ironically talkies silenced them.

“The Artist” also gets to add more modern acting techniques to the silent format. While the actors do perform broadly in many cases, there also moments of quiet introspection that seem to be more a reflection of today’s acting styles. It is fascinating to see the two acting styles working so well next to each other.

One of the other joys of “The Artist” is a dance sequence that recalls the work of Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. Modern dance scenes are highly edited, but Hazanavicius shoots his dance number like they used to: one long take with the actors in full frame so you can see their every move uninterpreted. Dujardin and Bejo aren’t flawless dancers, but it is a wonderful sequence because, like the rest of the film, it is a reminder of a time not quite forgotten.

“The Artist” is playing at the Majestic Theatre at Conway Cafe.

Sweet weekend on the trails...

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Friday, February 24, 2012— Page 17

BY TOM EASTMAN THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

AND SO — DARE WE say it? — it looks as though some natural snow is on the way today, Feb. 24, just in time for the end of the first February vacation week and just prior to the start of week two for southern New Hampshire visitors.

We say about time, right?

Despite the lack of natural snow so far this season, judging by business this week, indications are that visitors did believe that there was good skiing to be had here in the valley, even though temperatures felt more like late March than late February.

Things were busy over the weekend and beginning of the week, and leveled off during the week, many reported.

“Once the holiday went by, the larger crowds from the weekend have thinned a bit. But with more seasonal temps and plenty of snow in the forecast, the phones are ringing off the hook again today with questions about skiing, lessons and lodging for the New Hampshire vacation week,” said Dan Houde of King Pine Thursday on the eve of the storm.

Likewise, Thomas Prindle of Attitash and Wildcat said things have been “on par” with past February vacation weeks.

“Having been out there today, I can tell you the skiing has been absolutely excellent. With the forecast, it could set us up for an excellent weekend. We had a strong last weekend, and then there was what I call the shift change that occurs during the middle of the week for people vacationing and things level off. But we hope the snow will kick off this weekend in a strong way,” said Prindle.

His and Houde's comments wereshared by Ben Wilcox, general manager and president of Cranmore Mountain Resort.

“Given the end-of-week forecast we got at the begniing of the week, we were concerned, but the weather has been fantastic and people are really enjoying the skiing along with all the other ativities we have here.

The snow if it comes will be great to add to our base,” said Wilcox. “With southern New Hampshire kids having their vacation weeks next week, and the snow storm, it could be a good week next week as well.”

More than 200 skiers participated in Black Mountain's Mountain Dew Vertical Challenge Wedneday, according to Krissy Fraser.

Our ace photographer, Jamie Gemmiti, was at Wildcat for the lunch tray race Wednesday and at Black Thursday, and he concurred that the skiing was “excellent,” and “very spring like.” In February, no less.

Many restaurateurs say it's been a good week if not a record-breaker.

“It's been strong,” said Mary McArdle of May Kelly's Irish Cottage Thursday.

Dick Delaney of Delaney's Hole-in-the-Wall, who is also president of the Valley Originals, agreed it's been steady.

“It's been good. Solid. Today [Thursday] was a soft lunch for us, but the weather is so nice I think everyone is out skiing,” said Delaney. “People are saying great things about the skiing. I, too, have heard that some of the lodging properties are off, that people may have sort of been waiting 'til the end to book and that they were 70 or 80 percent full, but that's not bad, considering. So I am positive and we have had a good week on par with last year. Anecdotally, Lanette and I had Wednesday night off, so we went ski touring on the Ellis River before going to the Shannon Door, and we couldn't believe how much snow is out there in Jackson.”

TAPPING IN: The weird thing is that the extended warm temperatures have led to the start of the maple syruping season, and it's not even March 1 yet.

“We tapped some trees two days ago, and I started boiling some syrup today — which is well ahead see next page

HOOTIN IT UP: Two places that were very busy this week when we stopped by to play were Maestro's Open Mic with Kristin Corrigan and Jeff Hayford upstairs in the lounge Sunday night, and at Hoot Night at the Wildcat Inn and Tavern Tuesday night.

A highlight of the Maestro's open mic was when 80-year-old out-oftown listener Cathy Barrett rose to accompany Al “The Rev” Shafner on the Righteous Brothers’ “Unchained Melody.” Al had stepped outside and hurried to learn the song at her request, and they nailed it.

That's a 5km classic ski, a 5km skate ski and a 3km snowshoe run.

Why? Well, because they can.

In the classic and skate skiing, Piotrow can generally be found in the top 10 and Newton in the lower third.

In the scant snowshoe division, they readily finish in podium positions with Newton winning the first week, and Piotrow ever since.

Piotrow, 48, a self-employed online retailer and rookie coach of the Bartlett Nordic Team, is a five-year Nordic Meister who added snowshoeing to his competitive arsenal last season (a year after it was offered) basically "because it was there."

Piotrow is a multi-sport athlete, competing in largely short events like King Pine, Top Notch and Graniteman triathlons. Last spring he soloed in the Tuckerman Inferno Pentathlon and competed in the first Whitaker Woods Winter Triathlon (XC, mountain bike, snowshoe) in February.

He started cross-country skiing while in his 30's and credits Nordic Meisters with inspiring him to learn both classic and skate.

"The snowshoe appealed because it looked like a fun way to stay in running shape during the winter," he said.

Piotrow blocks out the morning for his Meister time. He accounts for warming up, taking a short break between legs and socializing. It takes about 2 and 1/2 hours.

He does classic, followed by skate and finishes with snowshoeing. A runner, snowshoeing is his strongest leg.

"Of course, by the time to get that point I'm pretty wiped out so I can't say I really enjoy it," he said. "It's more of a death jog by then."

He's a better classic skier than skater. He's also easy to spot, carrying skis, boots, poles, snowshoes, extra clothing, snacks, drinks, wax and all.

"It's a small miracle each week when I don't forget something," he said.

Piotrow applauds Nordic Meisters and Great Glen for doing an amazing

job of organizing the series from marking the trails to posting the results and making it a fun family-friendly event as his wife Meredith and sons Foster and Darren are often on the trails too.

"I especially enjoy the Meisters because it's great motivation each week and I like how it's competitive and casual at the same time," he said.

Newton's a longtime Nordic Meister who races for himself.

"Not to be the fastest," he said. "Not to be first. But to have fun."

In his world three events equals three times the fun.

Over the years, he's participated in du- and tri-athlons. He's a runner.

Newton, 56, a physician's assistant in internal medicine, estimates it takes him 1 hour, 15 minutes to complete the three events before he heads to the timing booth in the afternoon.

He's strongest in snowshoes — it mimics running — and weakest in the skating leg, blaming a lackluster technique. Every Tuesday he brings a set of skate skis and boots; classic boots and two sets of classic skis (wax and waxless depending on conditions) and snowshoes with a form of trail shoes or boots based on conditions.

"Over the years, I have dabbled in a variety of winter sports," he said.

"What I have done has depended on where I was, who was around, conditions, what else was going on in my life. Basically, I like to play outside and want to be able to do something regardless of whatever else is happening."

Newton is quick to deflect his triMeister role and heap praise upon not only Steve ("an outstanding athlete"), but the entire skiing and bicycling family. Last season Steve's wife Meredith did all three events, but her work schedule precludes it now. She still competes (she's fast; often near the top of the women's classic group) as do the Piotrows two young sons Foster (junior skate at Nordic Meisters) and Darren (Bartlett Nordic Team).

"They're the kind of family that gives me faith in the world," Newton said.

Priscilla Noel

Richard E. Leavitt

Richard E. Leavitt, 62, of Moultonborough Neck, died peacefully in his sleep of natural causes at Laconia General Hospital on Feb. 14, 2012. He was born in North Conway on Jan. 5, 1950, the son of Herbert and Lillian (Lyman) Leavitt.

Along with his parents, Richard, was predeceased by his brother, Billy, and sister, Vera. He is survived by his siblings John and Betty, nephews John, Jeff, Richard and Daniel, guardians Dawn and Scott Ferguson as well as loving extended family.

Richard lived most of his life in Conway with his family. New Horizons (formerly Center of Hope) was a large part of his social life and connection to the community. It was through New Horizons that Richard was able to realize his unique ability to connect with people. His volunteer work always involved socializing with people whether it was delivering meals on wheels or greeting people at the Gibson Center for lunch. Richard loved music, never missing a chance to go to sing-a-longs, dances or karaoke. He liked listening to Patsy Cline and Elvis and could melt any ones heart when he sang “Let Me Call You Sweetheart.”

When Richard was 45, he moved to a group home in Conway where he could always find a peer to talk with and practice his wry sense of humor. At age 54, Richard joined the family of Don and Nancy Barnhart in Chocorua. With the Barnhart’s, Richard expanded his social circle.

He enjoyed going to community concerts and traveled to many places in New England. At age 58, Richard joined the loving family of Dawn and Brent Trombly in Moultonborough Neck. The Trombly household included teens and toddlers, all of whom enjoyed Richard. Especially close to him was Brooklyn Trombly, who at 20 months old soaked up all the good things Richard had to offer.

Guardians and those close to Richard wish to thank the doctors and nurses who cared for Richard at Laconia General Hospital and the staff at Golden View Health Care Center in Meredith.

A graveside service and then celebration of Richards’s life will be held on May 19, times to be announced.

Service will be arranged by The Lord Funeral Home, Ossipee. Condolences and fond memories may be left at www.lordfuneralhome.com.

Priscilla Noel, 80, of Richardson Road, Hiram, Maine, died Monday, February 20, 2012 at Bridgton Hospital.

She was born in Haverhill, Mass., a daughter of Desire and Alice Langlois Noel and attended local schools, graduating from Haverhill High School.

Priscilla was employed for many years as a lathe operator for Saunders Brothers woodworking mill in Fryeburg. Priscilla enjoyed fishing, camping, and the Fryeburg Fair.

She was predeceased by two brothers, Roland and Lucien Noel, one sister Alice DeBrosky, and her companion Dolly Blake. She is survived by her long time companion and friend Bev-

erly Garland and her cat Patches of Hiram, two brothers Jean and Ernest Noel both of Orlando, Fla., a niece Sheila and her husband Pino Palermo, and many other nieces and nephews.

Visiting hours will be from 1-2 p.m. on Friday, March 2, 2012 at Wood Funeral Home, 9 Warren Street, Fryeburg followed by a funeral service at 2 p.m.

In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to Harvest Hills, 1389 Bridgton Road, Rt. 302, Fryeburg, ME 04037. Arrangements are made with Wood Funeral Home, Fryeburg. On line condolences may be expressed to the family at www.woodfuneral.org.

David L. Barnicoat, 83, of Albany and Cape Cod, Mass., passed away Monday, Feb. 20, 2012.

David owned and operated Barnicoat Monuments in Albany. He enjoyed the ocean, fishing, clamming, cribbage, farming and woodworking.

Survivors include his wife, Sally; six sons, David, Fred, Wayne, Greg, Danny and Teddy; five daughters, Caryn, Joni, Tammy, Terri and Cindy;

many grandchildren and great-grandchildren; a sister, Doris; a sister-inlaw, Barbara and nephews, Bill, Steven, Jack and Bucky. He was predeceased by a son Joshua.

A memorial service will be held on a fishing trip on Cape Cod in warmer weather.

The Furber and White Funeral Home in North Conway is in charge of arrangements.

Open auditions for 'Burn This' Feb. 27, 28 CONWAY — Auditions for "Burn This," will occur Monday, Feb. 27, at 6 p.m., and Tuesday, Feb. 28, at 6 p.m. at Your Theatre, home of M&D Productions located at 1857 White Mountain Highway in North Conway.

Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Rehearsals will begin in March and the show will run in April 2012. Bring conflicts for this timeline.

Written by the late Lanford Wilson and directed by Richard Russo, "Burn This" is set in the bohemian art world of downtown New York. This vivid and challenging drama explores the spiritual and emotional isolation of Anna and Pale, two outcasts who meet in the wake of the accidental death by drowning of a mutual friend. Characters needed are Anna, early to mid 30s, a former professional dancer, who is dry, contemplative, never one to wear her heart on her sleeve; Pale, early to late 30s. a restaurant manager, who is tough and abrasive, but ultimately an extremely sensitive man dealing with his brother's death (and not well); Larry, mid-20s to mid-30s, an ad man, who is a likeable, (not stereotypically) gay man with a caustic sense of humor and sarcasm; Burton, early to late 30s, a screenwriter, who is optimistic, trusting, and earnest, sometimes to a fault.

Those who are unable to attend one of these auditions dates can contact Richard Russo at dante43@ roadrunner.com to schedule an alternate audition time if possible.

Ice Cats drop two games, rebound for win Saturday –––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– SPORTS–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

BY CHARLIE TRYDER

The Ice Cats managed to keep the Kennebunk game at a 1-0 deficit until third period. At that point the Rams’s depth started wearing the Cats down. Kennebunk scored three unanswered goals in the final frame for the 4-0 final.

The Kennebunk game, according to Coach John Moran, played out as most knowledgeable fans would have expected.

A stronger, deeper team wore down a determined Ice Cats team in Kennebunk, but against the Poland-Gray-New Gloucester Knights, the Cats did not play well.

Moran clearly was disappointed in the Ice Cats’ performance, “game against Poland/Gray-

New Gloucester was surely the season low point for the Ice Cats. If anything could go ‘south’ in that game...it did. We just didn’t ‘show-up’ for that one...plain and simple. Perhaps we suffered from that all too common error of not going into the game believing it was serious competition.

Our opponents simply wanted it more than we did...no excuses. Losing 8-1 was the strongest wake up call of the season.”

Gray-New Gloucester/Poland jumped out to a 1-0 lead after the first period, but Russo scored with assists from Hill and Leach three minutes into the second period. Gray/Poland then answered the Russo goal less than a

Raider girls third at Western Maine Indoor Track Conference Championships

minute later, and scored another two minutes later.

The low point of the game turned out to be the third period when Cats fans thought that they would claw back and take over the game.

Instead they saw the Knights run off five goals for the 8-1 Gray-New Gloucester/ Poland win.

Although the Cats did not respond the way Moran hoped to the Gray/Poland lead in the third period of their game, they did respond to the loss properly.

Hosting Mt. Ararat on Saturday, the Cats came ready to play. Goalie Pavle Stepanovic shut out Mt. Ararat with 23 saves, and seniors Donny Kellough, T.J. Leach, and Patrick Hayes provided the Cats with outstanding leadership.

Moran lauded the effort, “We dominated from start to finish, spending the majority of time in their end and converting on two power plays as well. It was the polar opposite of the previous game and as of this date it helped secure the Ice Cats a slot in the playoffs.”

Ethan Green and Tyler Hill scored in the opening period for a 2-0 Cats’ lead. Tyler Harnden added a power play goal in the second period and Hill scored with a man advantage in the third period for the final 4-0 score.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

The Lake Region-Fryeburg Academy Ice Cats lost two games early this week, but picked up a win on Saturday.

On Monday, the Cats ventured to Kennebunk to play a strong club. On Thursday, they traveled to Hebron Academy to play a Poland-Gray-New Gloucester team on Thursday and hosted Mt. Ararat on Saturday. The powerful Kennebunk team defeated the Ice Cats 4-0. Despite their 2-13 record, the Poland –Gray-New Gloucester team spanked the Ice Cats 8-1, but the Cats rebounded for a nice 4-0 victory on Saturday.

BY CHARLIE TRYDER THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — The Fryeburg Academy girls indoor track team placed third in the Western Maine Conference on at USM in Gorham on Saturday.

Greely dominated the event with 214 points, and Falmouth finished second with 91 points. The Raiders totaled 69 points. The Raider boys finished sixth with 40 points. The York boys won the event with 182 points.

The Fryeburg girls were led by their consistent performers from the year: Corin Bedell, Saige Hennessey, Emily Heggie, Nikki Shivers and Jamie Gullickson.

Shivers, Hennessey, Bedell and Heggie combined to win the 4x200 with a 1:52.03 time.

Bedell also won the 400 with a 1:00.38 and finished third in the 200 with a 27.40 time.

Heggie won the high jump by clearing 5 feet.

Hennessey finished second in the 55 (7.70) and 200-yard sprints (27.09).

Gullickson finished third in the pole vault with an 8’6” jump.

All of these girls met entry requirements for the State Meet, so their seasons will continue at the championships during February vacation.

For the boys, Scott Pelkie placed third in the shot put with a throw of 40’3.25”.

Kenny Boucher finished second in the 400 and third in the 55 hurdles.

Although they did not place at the conferences Austin Ward and Devine Dockery did qualify for the State Meet.

The Raiders will be bringing a number of participants to the state meet and coach Kevin McDonald is optimistic about their chances.

“We hope to do well at States and if injury and illness stay away we will see many podiums,” he said.

DAILY CROSSWORD TRIBUNE MEDIA SERVICES

by Lynn Johnston

by Scott Adams

DILBERT

By Holiday Mathis to consider your message.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You eventually will outgrow these conditions that right now feel so much like who you are. Disassociate yourself from what is happening for a moment, and acknowledge that you’re bigger than this circumstance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

One way you can tell that you are fully engaged in life is that when you move, the world naturally adjusts and reacts, making way for you. Notice your special power today and enjoy it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Take pause from striving. You don’t have to achieve or succeed at anything to be secure in the universe. You always have a place. Whether you are feeling it at the moment or not, you fit.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It would be absurd to avoid reading a story because you’re afraid of how it will end. It is equally absurd not to start a relationship because you don’t know how it will end. Go forward in good faith.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have much to give now, and there’s a demanding task on the table just waiting for someone to take charge.

Self-confidence and dedication will be required, and you have plenty of both.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 24).

Your flexible attitude helps you move with the times. Loved ones wine and dine you in the weeks to come, and you deserve the extra attention. You’ll sign important documents in March. In June, a fellow adventurer encourages you to move forward into unexplored territory. You’ll make money using new skills. Cancer and Capricorn people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 2, 41, 20 and 24.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Avoid the person who insists on helping you regardless of whether you need or want them to. Notice how this overly helpful energy feels repellent, and heed the warning in that feeling.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You know what you know, and you’re not so worried about the rest because you also know where you can find out more if you need to. You show your true intelligence through what you choose to share (and leave out).

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s better to be real about who you are and what you can do (and want to do!) than to try for sainthood. A fallen halo becomes a leash. Avoid over-promising. Don’t give anyone a reason to have one up on you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You please people every day, but you’re not a “people pleaser” who sacrifices his or her own joy to satisfy others. It just so happens that when you make yourself happy, others smile, too.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). “There is no terror in a bang,” said the iconic suspense filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock, “only in the anticipation of it.” May these wise words from a fellow Leo help you stop fretting and move forward.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Instead of laboring over a decision, you weigh the pros and cons in an instant. You trust your subconscious mind to pick up the details that you miss with your conscious mind and give each item the proper credence.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Avoid asking, “Do you know what I mean?”

It’s important that you sound incredibly self-assured. The words you choose send a signal to others about what you’re trying to say and how seriously

RESENTFUL HUSBAND’S LIES HAVE BROKEN MARRIAGE BEYOND REPAIR

DEAR ABBY: I have been married to “Roman” for 13 years.

He has always been a man of few words who didn’t initiate much on his own, so I stepped up to bat and did everything. I took over all aspects of our married life -- from bill paying to home maintenance to romance. He would tell me how grateful he was to me for doing it.

His adult daughters from a previous marriage have always been cold to me, and I recently found out why. It turns out Roman made up horrible, untrue stories behind my back. He painted himself as the victim of abuse! His daughters staged an “intervention” to save their dad, and Roman went along with them. He cleared out our bank accounts, hid money and assets and filed for divorce. I was stunned.

Abby, he went along with the charade for a week -- until his guilt got the better of him, and he admitted he had made it all up. He claims he doesn’t want to divorce me after all. He said he made up the stories to get his daughters’ attention.

Roman and I are now going through counseling, and I am assuming responsibility for my part in this mess. He harbors strong resentment toward me and resorted to passive-aggressive revenge. We’re both doing our best to establish forthright, honest and open lines of communication.

The problem is his daughters still believe the lies. They hate me and won’t speak to their father unless he divorces me. I’m not sure what to do. Roman has lost his family and he may lose me, too. The damage is so widespread I don’t know what can be regained. Have you any advice for me?

-- OLDER, WISER AND HEARTBROKEN DEAR OLDER, WISER AND HEARTBROKEN: Your letter made me furious. It proves that with your husband no good deed goes unpunished. Had you not taken on the func-

tions your husband avoided, your credit would be shot, your house would be a wreck and your sex life nonexistent. And for this your husband slandered you?

That he would lie to his daughters about you is disgusting. That he then made a money grab and hid assets is appalling. What have you to gain from continuing this marriage?

If I were you, I’d contact a divorce lawyer AND a forensic accountant, divide the assets and let the daughters take care of their ingrate of a father.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I belong to a supper club comprised of four couples. We have enjoyed our monthly gatherings for years and have developed a strong bond with each couple. As a rule, each one takes turns hosting the event in their home. The recent behavior of one hostess has us baffled.

For starters, “Lynn” sometimes seats herself and her husband at a separate table, even though there’s room at the main table. She also involves herself with activities I consider rude -- taking calls on her cell, perusing Facebook, doing paperwork. It’s beginning to feel as though we are an obligation rather than wanted guests.

Members of our group have been hesitant to discuss this with her because we don’t want to create tension in the group we have come to hold dear. Any suggestions? -- GETTING SERVED A COLD DISH DEAR GETTING SERVED: It appears there is already tension in the group you have come to hold dear. For a host to behave the way Lynn has is rude. Whoever in the group is closest to Lynn should have a chat with her about it -- preferably face-to-face -- and ask her to explain. It’s possible that the responsibility of hosting has become too much for her.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.
