WARRENSBURG — The health care bill that Congress passed Saturday would hurt small businesses and doesn’t include appropriate incentives for cost control and for prompting citizens to lead healthy lifestyles, U.S. Rep. Scott Murphy (D-Glens Falls) said Monday morning.

Traveling through Warrensburg and Thurman to meet with his constituents, Murphy answered questions on why he voted “No” on the Affordable Healthcare for America Act that the U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed Saturday in a historic 220-215 vote.

Murphy was among the few 39 Democrats who voted against the bill. While some political observers wondered how the freshman Congressman could vote counter to national Democratic leadership after President Obama lobbied so hard for the bill, others noted that his vote might have been condoned by Democratic leadership, after they had secured enough votes to pass the bill — to give Murphy leeway to bond with his constituency, which is heavily Republican.

But Monday, Murphy said his No vote was merely a matter of protecting the

QUEENSBURY — In a painstaking process Tuesday, each of 80 absentee ballots cast in the Town of Lake George was held up and shown to a panel of political observers for their inspection.

For two hours, representatives of the two candidates for Lake George Town Supervisor — Republican Frank McCoy and Democrat Dennis Dickinson — scrutinized one ballot after another.

At about 2:15 p.m., there was an apparent winner. Frank McCoy, who had led 592- 584 on election day, picked up an additional 14-vote margin with the absentee ballots. The results are unofficial, and have yet to be certified.

McCoy said he was relieved with the pending victory.

“It was nerve wracking,” he said. “I took a deep sigh of relief as the last few ballots were counted.”

Within minutes, McCoy called his wife Janet with the news.

“Congratulations, you earned it,” she said.

McCoy’s tenure in town politics has spanned 19 years. It includes six years on the town Zoning Board of Appeals, five years on the planning board, followed by eight years on the town board.

Dennis Dickinson gave McCoy a formidable challenge, right down to the last vote. It’s been almost three decades since the town was led by a Democrat — when Dickinson himself held the post for eight years, until 1982.

Dickinson, a professional engineer, had run on his impressive credentials and on new ideas that would help solve problems and conflict between local municipalities. Tuesday afternoon, Dickinson could not be reached for comment.

WARRENSBURG — Two students have been recognized by the Warrensburg Central School Board of Education for outstanding character traits.

Ninth grader Tyler Wilcox and first-grader Sean Powers, both described as thoughtful, caring individuals by their teachers, received awards at a recent school board meeting.

Tyler was nominated by band teacher Denise Foster, who said he goes out of his way to assist others.

“Tyler always says a friendly ‘Hello,’ and often holds the door open for people,” she said. “He’s not only talented, but he also has an outstanding attitude and goes out of his way to stay involved and be helpful to others — He’s an extraordinary young man.”

She said he’s considerate, he volunteers for additional work, and communicates well with teachers and peers.

Tyler has volunteered to perform in all-county festi-

vals, and has been involved extra community performances like Christmas in Warrensburgh. Plus, he puts in extra time preparing for regional annual music competitions.

Tyler has been nominated for additional music honors as a result of his participation in area all-state and statewide band director association competitions.

In addition to his many music accomplishments, Tyler achieves academically, and and is a talented athlete, his teachers have said.

“Through his words and actions, Tyler is a great example to his peers, and he consistently demonstrates pride in his school community,” a school board official said.

The second student awarded this month by the Warrensburg Board of Education is first-grader Sean Powers.

Sean was nominated by his teacher, Shari Raymond.

“Sean is a very quiet student, but full of surprises,”

Murphy

the bill’s final version.

“We’ve got to design incentives so people are prompted to take care of their health and reduce some of the overall costs — we’ve got to get everyone in the nation involved in working on these health care issues,” he said.

“Health care costs are too big, and they’d be getting bigger in the reform act, without the incentives.”

He also said he staunchly opposed the bill’s provisions that would impose taxes on the area’s two largest industries: medical device manufacturers and paper mills.

The provision calls for medical device firms to pay a new tax of 2.5 percent of their sales revenues, and for paper companies to be excluded from a $1.01-per-gallon biofuel tax credit, which would be substantial for the local operations.

“If this bill comes back from the Senate with the same tax provisions, we’re going to do everything we can do to miti-

FRom page 1 viability of small businesses, avoiding the spectre of runaway health care costs, assuring that incentives were in place to boost health across the nation, and scrapping proposed taxes that would target local industries.

“In this legislation, we didn’t do nearly enough to control costs — we allowed a system in which big insurance companies have the ability to set a lot of their own prices, and we weren’t doing enough to fix some of the broken incentives,” he said.

Murphy said he had proposed provisions that gave citizens a premium discount if they kept their blood pressure and cholesterol down — but these specifics were cut out of

Raymond said. “I often witness him demonstrating acts of kindness to his classmates.”

Raymond said Sean is thoughtful, and routinely focuses on other’s needs.

“If students need a pencil or a crayon, he will offer one of his spares and if a student needs to catch up on missed work, Sean will offer to help.”

Sean also is well attuned to others’ emotions, she said.

“Sean has comforted students when they were upset

on the playground,” she said.

“Also, he is always the first one to volunteer to help out.”

Sean participates actively in the local junior football league, where he is known to cheer on his team, help teammates with equipment and demonstrate sportsmanship, Raymond said.

“Sean’s manners both in and out of the classroom are wonderful — as well as his hard work,” she said.

gate the taxes proposed for our local mills and medical device manufacturers,” Murphy said.

That’s not all he objected to.

He said the bill should focus more on quality of health care, rather than quantity. Doctors now are reimbursed according to the number of patients they see, he said, rather than the outcome of the examinations.

“They became doctors to get people well, not to see how many people they can run through in 10-minute appointments,” he said. “For the doctors to pay their bills, they have to jam through a whole lot of visits in a day — this frustrates the doctors and patients, and leads the system in the wrong direction.”

The other problem, he said, is the proposed 8 percent tax on businesses that have a payroll of $500,000 or more — which would burden tens of thousands of small businesses across the nation that are the main source of jobs for the nation’s workforce, he said.

Murphy said he was frustrated that the payroll cutoff for the 8 percent tax was far too low in the House bill, and that a proposed tax credit to

offset this staggering new tax would expire in only two years.

“So many of our small businesses can’t really afford to provide health care,” he said.

“In this bill, we’d see the health care costs explode, and we’d be putting our small businesses and government on the hook to pay for them.”

Murphy said he does support health care reform, if it’s designed right.

“There’s widespread agreement about the problem, but a lot of disagreement about the solution,” he said, noting that he fully supports the concept of getting every American covered with affordable health care coverage, that lifetime caps on health care payments should be banned, and that pre-existing condition exclusions should also be prohibited.

“Insurance is supposed to help you under the worst circumstances, and it makes no sense to have these exclusions,” he said. “But if we don’t fix this cost growth in health care reform, it’s an open-ended problem for the government and individual families to pay those bills.”

U.S. Rep. Scott Murphy was in the area to talk about broadband connectivity and veterans issues, but he also spoke out on why he voted ‘No’ on the health care reform act passed narrowly by the U.S. House of Representatives. Here, he is pictured talking with Thurman Supervisor Red Pitkin Monday about efforts to bring broadband to the residents of Thurman and Johnsburg.

Readers Poll Was Scott Murphy justified in his ‘No’ vote?

Scott Murphy’s actions were justified. The bill as proposed hurts local businesses, is too expensive, and doesn’t encourage people to take appropriate care of their health.

Forget reform of health care in the U.S. The government shouldn’t be meddling in what can be provided best through free enterprise.

By Jessica Kane denpubs@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE — I’ve heard about this annual Black Velvet Art Party for years — I’ve seen the signs posted, I’ve heard the people talking about it, but I always chose instead to sit at home and nurse my cabin fever.

This year, our editor asked me to write an article about it, so I grabbed a dress from the closet, shoved the pedal to the metal and headed over to the Roaring Brook Ranch, one of those warm cozy Adirondack lodges with the moose and deer heads on the walls — but last night, it looked more like a vaudeville carnival.

Everything sparkled with glittery red streamers and balloons, like someone spent a week decorating it.

I was handed a ticket by a woman in aviator glasses who resembled Amelia Earhart, and stepped inside the main room, where a handful of people resembling airline pilots were drinking beer and exchanging small talk.

On the dance floor, a woman with bird wings was “getting down” with a man who looked like he was in his late 70s, and nearby a couple of young people dressed as angels were flitting about to the music created by the vivacious seven-

piece live band Pop Rock Circus.

The theme of the Black Velvet party this year I learned, was “fly” — which explained a some of the phenomena.

But fly has many meanings.

For instance, there was a gentleman walking around as giant undone zipper. I saw Superwoman. I saw a bearded man in a brassiere wearing reading glasses and a red velvety smoking jacket, gyrating.

Also, there was a woman in gold lamé≠ suit—who traveled all the way from Philadelphia and went to three thrift shops before she found the perfect thing to wear.

Just over 21 years ago, Lake George Arts Project board members dreamed up the Black Velvet party as they sat around a bar after hours — they thought it would be fun to throw a fundraiser honoring tacky, cheesy art. Of course they had no idea this would snowball into something that would last 21 years.

Nowadays, they couldn’t stop throwing it each year even if they wanted to. Annually, tons of people volunteer their time to make this an evening one to be remembered. And all proceeds from the event support the Courthouse Gallery exhibition series.

Over the years, they Black

Velvet party has hosted a wide variety of weird attractions: pink Cadillacs, Elvis appearing onstage out of a plume of smoke, a game of pin the ear on Van Gogh — and so much black velvet that one board member told me in thousands of years, archaeologists will probably sit around baffled trying to understand why so much black velvet wound up in the Lake George area.

This year, around the dance floor there was a UPaint mural, where anyone could paint whatever they wanted on a huge sheet of black velvet.

There was a silent auction of original donated black velvet art. My favorite was a comic strip featuring a super-hero called the middleaged mediocre menopausal woman.

The party featured a fashion parade in which the best costumes received awards — colorful beaded trophies which were works of art themselves. Also, the event included a raffle for scenic helicopter rides and hot air balloon rides.

I had a genuine aura reading by a legitimate energy healer who actually had to stop in the middle of my reading to play air-guitar because she couldn’t resist the music in the background.

Even the food was delicious — Asian duck stir-fry, squid and shrimp ceviche, and al-

mond caramel stuffed pancakes, to name a few.

The Lake George Arts Project really knows how to create a perfect space for people to make art, see art, be art, and of course, contribute to art. And what better way to take our experience of life to a higher, more deliberate level!

That’s what art is, is it not?

Taking something we find pleasurable or interesting or beautiful and giving it its own wall space? Or a night of its own? Definitely worth getting off the couch for.

$200,000 grant awarded to preserve Lake George wild lands More donations sought for mortgage LAKE GEORGE — The Lake George Land Conservancy recently received a grant of $200,000 from the Helen V. Froehlich Foundation to help support the environmental group’s most recent land conservation projects.

The Lake George Land Conservancy took on substantial debt to finance the acquisition of the Berry Pond Preserve in 2008 and the Last Great Shoreline Protection Project in 2009.

The Froehlich Foundation’s grant will help to meet these financial obligations, a Conservancy official said.

“It's impossible to overstate the importance of the Froehlich Foundation’s annual support for land protection,” Land Conservancy Executive Director Nancy Williams said.

“Their gifts pay our holding expenses for these lands as we continue to raise funds to pay off the loans. This year has been even more critical than most because the state has pushed many, if not all of its land acquisition projects to the unknown future.”

On February 27, the Lake George Land Conservancy ended nearly two decades of negotiations when it acquired the Gabriel land in the Town of Putnam for $4 million. Known as the Last Great Shoreline project, this acquisition caused a considerable debt load, Williams said. With another $300,000 of project expenses, the acquisition represented the Conservancy’s most expensive purchase ever, and the largest mortgage it ever undertook.

About one year earlier, the Conservancy purchased the 1,436-acre Berry Pond tract in southern Lake George, marking the organization’s largest single acreage acquisition. The $2.654 million purchase, made possible through a loan from the Open Space Conservancy, the Froehlich Foundation and other private donors, was considered a vital step in protecting the water quality of West Brook, which flows into Lake George. The Conservancy must raise around $175,000 annually to meet its mortgage requirements, Wilson said.

“We are thrilled that we were able to protect these parcels,” said Williams, noting that her group has already opened public trails on both plots. “Our current debt is over $6 million — we hope that those who use the lake appreciate the protected lands that protect the beauty of Lake George and send a check to the Conservancy.”

She added that there are other lands around the lake which the group would like to protect but acquisitions are at a standstill until they pay for the two recent purchases.

The Conservancy’s purchase of the Last Great Shoreline project, located in the Town of Putnam, was a crucial step in the protection of the Lake George watershed, she said. A to-

This view of ‘Anthony’s Nose’ peninsula, taken from Jumping Rock, depicts a swath of pristine lands that the Lake George Land Conservancy has recently acquired. The group is now seeking donations so it can make mortgage payments on this purchase. tal of 351 acres and 2,357 feet of shoreline were acquired as a preserve, and 70 acres and 1,613 feet remain in private ownership that is now protected by a deed restriction.

The Conservancy has developed more than one mile of hiking trails through diverse ecological systems, including along parts of the Sucker Brook wetlands, to the view of forested hills and mountains of Vermont, and to a view of Lake George.

The land contains 35 acres of wetlands — including a rare white cedar swamp, she said. These Sucker Brook wetlands provide a natural filtration system, contributing to the pristine water quality of Lake George. In addition, the legendary

CHESTER • ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 5

Legion launches recruitment effort, plans motorcyclists’ group thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN — After completing a fund drive and annual elections, the American Legion Post No. 964 is now seeking new members, and is planning to launch an organization of Legion motorcycle riders affiliated with the post.

On the weekend of July 4, the local Legion held its annual coin drop, and the effort was very successful, Legionnaire Joe Slattery said.

“We thank both our yearround residents and our summer residents for their generous coin drop donations,” he said.

The fundraising effort resulted in receipts about $400 dollars short of the Legion’s goal, Slattery said.

“This is not bad considering the economic situation,” he said.

The donations are used for many Legion projects including upkeep of the Legion Post, sending local North Warren High School students to American Legion Boys’ State, plus contributing to both the Wounded Warriors project and underwriting the local Boy Scout organization.

This next year, the Legion post will likely be starting a new branch of the post to help increase the post’s membership, Slattery said.

A new charter hopefully

will be established for a group called the American Legion Riders, an offshoot of the post, he said.

To become member, an individual must be a Legionnaire or a member of one of the Legion’s related organizations.

The Legion Riders will hold their own meetings separate from regular Legion post meetings and will conduct their own fundraising, both to help out Post No. 964, as well as making a positive contribution to the local communities, Slattery said.

Those veterans and spouses that are motorcyclists and interested in joining this new organization as charter members are urged to contact Joe Slattery at 494-5989 for more information.

Slattery said all the Post needs at this point to launch this this group is five new members.

The Legion Riders, he said, are likely to be highprofile in the community and welcomed by citizens, he said.

“As you seen in past weeks, the Patriot Guard escorted a local soldier home,” he said, talking about how a group of motorcyclists served as escorts for the wake and funeral of Jeremiah Monroe, a U.S. Army soldier who was recently killed in action in Afghanistan.

Several members of the

Patriot Guard, Slattery said, are members of American Legion Riders, both men and women, in and around Hudson Falls. Some riders came from longer distance to honor Monroe, he said.

“What a way to continue our service to our country, our state, and our community,” Slattery said of the proposed Legion Riders group.

Legion officers re-elected Elections were held recently for the American Legion Post No. 964, and the following officers were reelected for the 2009-2010 year: Joanne Ellsworth, Commander and Co-Adjutant; Louis Russo, 1st Vice Commander, Chaplain and Service Officer; John McConnell, 2nd Vice Commander; Joe Slattery, 3rd Vice Commander, Treasurer, CoAdjutant and Historian; and Ken Little, Sergeant-atArms Arms.

In related news, the American Legion’s Ladies Auxiliary group has recently welcomed three new members to their organization.

•100 Years Ago – November, 1909• Return the stolen butter, thief!

Farmers are busy doing fall plowing. Everything is dried up here. There is no water in the brooks and springs. Sunday was a beautiful day and autos were out in large numbers. Selab Pratt caught two foxes in West Bolton. Virgil Kenyon of Garnet killed a nice buck. Will the thief who stole a jar of butter from the ice house at Riverbank please return the jar?

Fiery death erupts on trolley car A mysterious explosion on a crowded Fort Miller trolley car of the Hudson Valley Railroad killed Howard Pattee, 22, a cousin of Mrs. Fred C. Loss, of Warrensburgh. Several other passengers were injured in the panic that followed. The Loss family is in a state of shock and deep mourning.

Pattee, who was standing in the rear vestibule, was a mass of flames from head to foot. The flames leaped from every stitch of clothing he was wearing and they licked at his face, penetrating his mouth and nostrils. Men rushed to his aid and made every effort to extinguish the flames but his face was practically burned to a crisp. His arms and legs were horribly burned.

The scene in the car was one of wild confusion and windows were broken. Some believe that Pattee was carrying a bottle of gasoline in his hip pocket and that it exploded. He was in frightening agony and had lapsed into a semi-conscious condition by the time he arrived at Glens Falls Hospital. He died just after midnight.

Road Oct. 15, 1909 and killed. The owners of the automobile, who were not injured, adjusted the matter with Mr. Ross.

Wrongful death suit settled The action brought by Mrs. Marion Wood against Spencer Trask to recover $20,000 for the death of her husband who was killed two years ago on the construction of the Trask cottage at Lake George, was settled out of court.

(Note…the “cottage” was built on Triuna Island, one of the Three Brothers islands in Lake George. Multi-millionaire Spencer Trask, of Saratoga and Lake George, died the next month, Dec. 31, 1909, in a railroad accident near New York City.)

News roundabout

Some unknown person or persons broke into Selah Fuller ’s house in West Bolton when Mr. Fuller and son, Lewis Fuller, had gone to vote in the election.

The thief broke the lock on the bedroom door, then went into the room and broke into a locked trunk and took $70 in money, two pairs of socks and a jack knife. This is the first time such a thing has happened in this area.

Wesley Morehouse of Sodom killed his hog. He thinks it will be cheaper to buy pork than to buy grain to make pork.

J.H. Wade is building a fine residence on Circle Ave,, North Creek with G.H. Rogers managing the job.

A daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. Victor Dickinson on Sunday, Nov. 7, 1909 at Bolton Landing.

Mrs. Edith Reilly of Newcomb, daughter of James Wilcox, fell down stairs in the new schoolhouse, hurting her knee and scraping her limb quite badly. Mrs. Charles Lanfear of The Glen underwent a serious operation for hernia at Saratoga Hospital.

Washington Chase of Newcomb was stepping into his boat recently and slipped and fell striking his side against the oar lock and cracking two of his ribs.

Lawrence Pratt of Warrensburgh and a few men are cutting and skidding the lumber on Orletta Cilley’s back lot. John Crane of Wevertown has gone to work for E. Wakely at his lumber camp.

Orrin Perkins of West Stony Creek is building a fine new house for the comfort of his large poultry flock.

Norman Bennett has moved from Putney Hill, Warrensburgh to the Mead Ellsworth farm which he has rented in Caldwell (Lake George).

Flames destroy hotel barn

Deer season the best ever

Thief robs Bolton man

Fire destroyed the hotel barn at Olmstedville owned by James McSweeney. The origin of the fire is a mystery, but it is supposed to have caught from a burnt match thrown in the hay. The flames had made such headway that it was impossible to save the building If it weren’t for the heroic work of the men who attended a dance at the hotel that same evening, the nearby dwellings owned by Margaret Bradley would have been in ruins as they narrowly escaped destruction.

In other news, a horse belonging to Ernest Ross, a liveryman at Bolton, was struck by an automobile on the Bolton

A party of 15 men, who had been camping in the west side of the town on Hays Flow, near the Hamilton County line, passed through Bakers Mills with 13 deer and a large black bear, the proceeds of a ten-day hunt.

Three magnificent deer heads are on exhibition in the show window of Floyd & Williams Jewelry Store in the Woodward Block, Warrensburgh. They are owned by Berry W. Woodward, E.C. Austin and Lee F. Stockton, who shot the animals in the Harrisburgh country of Stony Creek. The heads were set up by C.H. Downs, taxidermist of Blue Mountain Lake.

Orange Underwood and Miss Grace Herrick, two of the most estimable young people of the Methodist congregation, were married at the home of the bride’s aunts, Lila and Mary Herrick on Elm Street, Warrensburg. After the honeymoon, they will begin housekeeping in the cozy flat over J.G. Herrick’s store on River St,

Warrensburgh news briefs Van Jones, blacksmith, has changed his place of business from lower Main St. to Horicon Ave., opposite the Warren House barns. (Note…the barns were where the Dragon Lee restaurant is now located. The old blacksmith building is still there across the street.

William Taylor was thrown from a wagon, drawn by a team of oxen which became frightened at an automobile, and struck his head receiving a concussion of the brain.

Delbert E. Pasco has put up a large building near his hardware store (now Curtis Lumber Co.) and stocked it with oats, corn, feed, wheat, buckwheat flour and pork. He intends to do his own grinding after this winter.

About 20 friends of Gertrude Sturdevant tendered their best wishes to her on Oct. 22, 1909 at her home on lower Elm St., the occasion being her 17th birthday anniversary.

(Note…her home was at the bakery building of her father, James Sturdevant, now called Riverside Gallery. She married Judge Loren Hoffman, had a son, Billy and died young.)

A son was welcomed at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Wood. The remains of Mercy Ellsworth were brought from Thurman for internment in the Harrington Hill Cemetery.

A lady’s black cloth cape trimmed with lace and passamenterie was lost at the Warren County Fairgrounds (behind Ashes Hotel) and has not yet been located. A reward will be paid if it is taken to the Warrensburgh News office.

Warrensburg election fallout: behind the scenes T

he election in Warrensburg is now history, and the campaigns, up to the last minute, had some surprising twists and turns.

First of all, it was interesting that Kevin Geraghty won his supervisor post back on a Conservative line in a staunchly Republican town. Geraghty had lost the G.O.P Primary to challenger Maynard Baker by a substantial

margin.

Routinely, it's difficult in a November general election to reverse the results of a Primary because so many of the voters, particularly the elder ones, pull down all the levers on the G.O.P. line. Plus, the Conservative and independent party candidates are scattered on the page below, down near the Communist and Worker party levers — questionable company, to be sure. Such ballot placement taints a candidate, regardless if he or she is absolutely patriotic and mainstream. Many Republican candidates have tried to overcome this disadvantage after losing a Primary, but failed.

Apparently Geraghty's strength with the independent voters and Democrats helped boost his tally Tuesday.

But I also think the flak over the Baker-Rounds advertisement in the Adirondack Journal, falsely accusing DPW chief Rick Galusha of misconduct, backfired badly for Baker and Rounds.

It not only reflected poor ethical judgement by whoever placed it, but it showed a lack of political leadership. Even if Baker and Rounds didn't personally draft the ad, the public expected the two to take responsibility for it — but the two candidates indicated they weren't sure how the allegations got printed.

Next interesting twist: Sometimes the things that almost happen are newsworthy enough to write about.

The false allegations prompted Don Bagwell to immediately get a large sign made that read: "Maynard and Bryan are Lying to You. Don't Vote for a Lie." Bagwell was going to put the sign up at the corner of Library and James streets, near the polls at the Warrensburg Elementary School. Geraghty heard about Bagwell's plans, and asked him convincingly not to display the sign, because the sign might hurt his effort more than help it out.

"It was very important to me to take the high road," Geraghty said Wednesday. "I don't like negative campaigning, and I didn't want any of it done on behalf of me — There was no way I was going to be shrill."

However, Bagwell's truck, fire-engine red, was indeed parked there at James and Library on Election Day, but that sign Bagwell had commissioned was stuck inside the truck bed and never saw the light of day.

On the other hand, his truck did bear the lettering: "Don't Let this Town Go Backwards, Re-Elect Kevin Geraghty." Observers said this sign on his truck, being so close to the polls, may have prompted a few votes against Ger-

aghty, however.

Another thing that may not be generally known: John Alexander had pledged to leave office if Baker was elected.

Alexander said Wednesday he had drafted a letter of resignation that he would have presented to the board if the election tally had been only a little different.

"I wasn't bluffing," Alexander said.

By Thom Randall Alexander said he was irked about how Baker might steer the town away from long-term planning.

Baker, of course, for decades has been a staunch advocate of property owners' rights, and decades ago, he campaigned against local planning and zoning when it was first introduced. Planning on a regional level, of course has been chiefly in the hands of the Adirondack Park Agency, which has throttled economic development — and Baker has fought for years against the APA, since the early1980s when he formed the Adirondack Freedom Fighters to curb the encroachment of the APA on property rights and individual freedoms.

Baker ’s fight has won him strong support through the years. Alexander recognizes that Baker ’s a political icon in the region, but he has followed a more moderate approach, believing that planning protects quality of life here.

Of course, there's another source of conflict between Baker and Alexander — they are competitors in the funeral business, and it's a tough time for all who are in this particular enterprise.

Anyway, stay tuned.

Town board meetings are likely to be lively now, as Rounds was elected to the board and he joins the "rebel" faction on the board, which as of Jan. 1 has a 3-2 majority.

It will be interesting to witness the outcome, month after month, of this new alignment on the Warrensburg Town Board.

State policies boost land access To the editor: We at the Adirondack Park Agency PA offer this response to the recent letter to the editor penned by Adirondack Park Local Government Review Board Director Fred Monroe: The Adirondack State Park Forest Preserve and its 2.5 million acres — 43 percent of the Park — is within a day’s drive of 83 million people and provides state residents and visitors with some of the greatest outdoor recreational opportunities available in the U.S., if not the world. The state Constitution, the State Land Master Plan and the Unit Management Planning process ensures the public has numerous and diverse recreational opportunities to pursue on the people’s land in the Park.

Recognized worldwide as one of the truly unique and extremely rare wild places, the Adirondack Park offers abundant recreational uses. Businesses, facilities and services in the Park’s 103 towns and villages benefit from nature-based tourism and serving as gateways to the Forest Preserve.

Millions of people snowmobile, ski, paddle, motorboat, camp, fish, hunt, hike, and climb throughout the Park’s open spaces. Recreational pursuits on state lands help sustain the outdoor recreation and tourism industries which have been significant components of the Adirondack economy since the 19th century and represent a major economic growth opportunity.

Over 95 percent of the Park’s state land today is classified as either Wilderness or Wild Forest; Wild Forest accounts for 51 percent of these lands. The Wilderness classification prohibits the use of motor vehicles while motor vehicle use is allowed as determined by the unit management planning process on Wild Forest state lands. This balance accommodates the diverse interests of our citizens and visitors while ensuring the preservation of the Adirondack Park’s natural resources for present and future generations.

Statements that the state owns or controls 75 percent of all the land inside the Park are grossly inaccurate. Over the past decade, the State has spent millions of dollars acquiring conservation easement rights to maintain working forests; these easement lands also provide additional recreational opportunities for residents and visitors. According to the Adirondack Park Regional Assessment Project, only 338,097 acres — or six percent of the land — are identified under public conservation easements. These private lands were previously off limits to the public for centuries but are or will become accessible for public recreational motorized and non-motorized uses.

Within the mix of Wilderness, Wild Forest and Easement lands, Wilderness by its very definition is not easily accessible and is intentionally managed to provide important opportunities for solitude and remoteness. Lows Lake is one of these special places.

As a part of the 1985 centennial celebration for Article

www.adirondack-journal.com 14’s “Forever Wild” designation in the New York State Constitution, the SLMP committed the state to the preservation of the wild character of the Hitchins Pond, Lows Lake and Oswegatchie River area as a wilderness canoe route without motorboat or float-plane use. Lows Lake is a critical part of this outstanding canoe route — a paddling experience so wild in character that National Geographic Adventure magazine rated it one of the top wilderness canoe routes in the world!

The majority of land surrounding Lows Lake is already part of the Five Ponds Wilderness. There are three private properties on the lake and “in holdings” are not banned from Wilderness. In fact, private in-holdings exist in many State Land Wilderness Units with no degradation to the general public’s wilderness experience.

Lows Lake is also one of only three lakes, including Lake Lila and Little Tupper Lake, greater than 1,000 acres in size where public motorized access is prohibited. Public use of motor boats on Lows Lake was prohibited in 2006 and floatplane use will cease after December 31, 2011.

With hundreds of lakes and ponds open for motorized use, and more than half of the Forest Preserve classified as Wild Forest, there is a commitment at the APA to promote the long-standing vision established in the Master Plan to preserve Lows Lake as a wilderness paddling experience.

Additional motorized use on Wild Forest state lands includes snowmobiling. Last year the Agency rendered a Master Plan interpretation that allows for the potential increase of snowmobile trail mileage 15 percent over current levels.

In November, the Agency may issue additional interpretations on snowmobile trail guidance that would resolve many important Master Plan issues and pave the way for approval of Wild Forest Unit Management Plans that include snowmobile trails.

The Agency is always in the position of considering a range of stakeholder advocacy positions concerning the present and future of the Adirondack Park. There is an ongoing need for accurate representation of the facts, regardless of opinions, to facilitate a positive and constructive dialogue to ensure outcomes that are beneficial to the Adirondack Park’s people, communities and environment.

The Agency remains open to engaging in dialogue with all stakeholder groups.

Respectfully, Keith P. McKeever Adirondack Park Agenc

Couponing's Best-Kept Secrets: Don't Believe Everything You See

O

ne of the most common misconceptions about coupons is that the item that you buy must match the picture that appears on the face of the coupon. It's true that you can use the coupon to purchase the item that's pictured. However, you want to pay close attention to the text on a coupon, too. After all, the text contains the precise information that the coupon's bar code is programmed to deliver at the checkout counter. Which brings us to this week's tip.

Super-Couponing Secret: Forget the Photos, Read the Fine Print It's a very common marketing technique for a manufacturer to show a new or more expensive variety of a product on the face of a coupon in the hope that you will buy this new or more expensive variety. If you read the coupon, though, you'll discover that the offer is good for "$1 off any [brand] product." Consider a coupon for a new variety of cold medicine put out by a leading manufacturer. The coupon may show the new, multi-symptom medicine in the picture, hoping that you will want to try it, but the text states clearly that you can use the coupon on any medicine from this manufacturer.

Learning to distinguish between what the photo suggests and the full terms of the deal that the text actually spells out is a skill that can really help shoppers, giving us more freedom to buy the item we may prefer versus the variety shown in the photo. I recently had a coupon for a new variety of skin-care product. It showed a photo of the lotion, and the text read "$1 off [brand] lotion, body wash, or any [brand] product." That wording is key! When I didn't see a good sale for the company's lotions or body wash, I did see a bar of the same brand of soap - for 99 cents.

With my coupon, it was free.

Brand-name sandwich meat is an area where it can pay to read coupon wording closely. People often ask me how to save at the deli counter. It's not always easy to get discounts on fresh-cut cold cuts. But many meat manufacturers sell pre-packaged deli meats, too, and there are often coupons for those. Look closely at the wording on these

Denton Publications, Inc. We’re more than a newspaper, We’re a community service.

coupons. While the coupon may show a boxed or bagged variety of meat, the wording often spells out a wider deal, such as "$1 off 1 package of [brand] sliced meat, or 1lb. of [brand]

By Jill Cataldo sliced meats at the deli."

These coupons are a great way to save on fresh-sliced meats of the same brand at the deli counter.

Ready for another tip? This one involves brand loyalty.

While we all have favorite brands of things, our brand loyalty can cost us in the long run if we aren't shopping smart for those favorite-brand items when they're on sale. Major brands often engage in what the industry calls "price wars" with one another. We see this frequently with items such as pasta sauce, where numerous brands compete to sell what is essentially the same product. Brand A may be cheap one week, but next week Brand B barrels in with an even lower price. This works out well for shoppers who aren't particularly partial to any specific brand. But, if we think "I really like Brand A, and I will always buy it no matter what," it's great when Brand A is on sale for $1.29 a jar and we've got a 75-cent coupon for it.

Arnolds welcome new grand-baby Congratulations to Lisa and Bill Arnold who will be doing a lot of baby sitting, we hear. This happy couple became grandparents to Aiden James, son of Rachel and Adam, on Sept. 28 and to Benjamin Kenneth, son of Ashley and Josh, on Oct. 28.

This makes seven grandchildren for the proud Bowen Hill Rd grandparents.

What will be taken away next?

Many years ago we learned of freedom in the U.S.A. as we daily attended the one-room schoolhouses. Many of us were born and raised in this free North Country and as the years went by we took it for granted that things would stay the same.

If our parents or grandparents needed to put up a small building for pigs, chickens or for an ice house. They did it or helped a neighbor build a barn.

Then as we got older and had our own home, and a few acres of land and never dreamed things would drastically change.

Then the Adirondack Park Agency was put in place, and we needed permits to put up any pig pens or outhouses. The only thing that didn’t change was the fact that taxes had to be paid.

Those taxes on a 40-acre plot and home in Athol went from $2.58 to $2,500 per year in just several decades.

Now in 2009 we’re informed that we can not burn papers in our burning barrels? So what do we do, especially with cereal boxes, a weeks supply of junk mail, and newspapers, boxes from food products? We all have to buy extra garbage cans or build an outside fireplace and roast hot dogs often? What happened to the days when a big truck set in the Grand Union parking lot in Warrensburg and was being loaded with newspapers?

Boy Scouts went around collecting these papers?

(Editor’s Note: Such paper products should be recycled at the local landfill, according to state law, to save resources and save pollution. Burning inked or bleached paper products has been shown in scientific studies to release toxic dioxins, as does burning plastics, a practice that is illegal. The Boy Scouts do still occasionally collect paper products. Contact the Warrensburg troop leaders for details.)

Next is going to be our license plates, a mandatory replacement at $25 or more, I have some old yellow ones from the 1930s. Maybe we can change to them?

What do you foresee in our Adirondack future? Do not cut any trees? Do not have a wood burning stove, no cooking on barbecue grills, paint your last name on your roof for the convenience of helicopters, and your town will be run by state officials? I’m sure you can think of more.

Endorsements of local politicians?

When I first wrote for a newspaper I was advised to keep political opinions impartial and today when I see the Post-Star, I am shocked to see the editorial writers trying to sway the voters. By the way, my first writings were for a Cobleskill newspaper in the late 1950s. Is progress good?

Halloween was a quiet event at the Kenyontown end of town. It was a very rainy day with a bitter, furious wind in the afternoon and evening. Residents sweet treats will last a while, as there were few Trick-or-Treaters venturing out for handouts.

By Evie Russell denpubs@denpubs.com ATHOL — More than 30 children attended the annual Halloween party on October 24 sponsored by the Thurman Youth Commission and held at the town hall.

Prizes were awarded for Best Costume. The two top winners were a bumble-bee/butterfly getup and a Scarlet O’Hara disguise. But so many others were indeed humorous, scary, and or pretty. It was difficult to choose only two.

Therefore, many other prizes were given and each child took home a goodie bag.

Children played games, and assembled crafts including teddy bear magnets. An indoor parade was held, and cookies, cupcakes, and punch were served.

The event’s organizers express thanks to Bob, Martha, Shirley, Susan, Lisa, Ted, Bruce, Nancy, Don, Cheryl, Kylelee, Jessica, Amanda, Norma, and everyone else who helped to make this a special day for the kids.

North Warren High School prepares Thanksgiving dinners

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — North Warren High School students Jessica May and Lindsey Meade sorted through boxes of donated food, gathered in preparation for the school’s annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner.

“It’s good that people who can’t afford a Thanksgiving dinner, or have no one to share it with, can come to the school and enjoy it with families and people they know,” she said.

Lindsey agreed as they took an inventory of the food and made plans for the dinner, set this year for 4 to 7 p.m. Saturday Nov. 14 in the school cafeteria.

“It’s so nice to have our community come together, and let people know that

others care,” Lindsey Meade said. “It’s awesome.”

In 2008, the dinner served 284 people; and North Warren students, faculty, staff and administration all contributed money, time, effort and food for the event — which has now become a treasured tradition in the area.

For last year ’s dinner, this team gathered and prepared 21 turkeys, 175 potatoes, and a lot of squash, North Warren Principal Teresa Andrew said.

Forty of the meals were take-outs, delivered to elderly shut-ins, with squads of students traveling to Pottersville, Adirondack, Brant Lake and elsewhere with meals, an accompanying treat, and a large dose of good cheer.

For the sit-down meal at the school, students wait on tables, preparing plates

full of food for citizens just as they custom-order.

School faculty members said this week that it was Andrews that launched the tradition eight years ago, along with the school yearbook staff, as a way to reach out to all who call the towns of Horicon and Chester their home.

“We decided we wanted to do something for community, giving back for all the y do for us, particularly with sports and fundraising,” Andrew said. “Since then, it’s grown every year — we not only have the returnees, but we see new faces each year.”

She said that everyone pitches in to make it a mainstay event in people’s lives.

“It’s become a community and school thing,” Andrew said.

Hyde offers $10,000 prize drawing

Non-winning ticket stubs may be dropped off at Scoville’s downtown Glens Falls location no later than Sunday, Dec. 13 at 1 pm, when a drawing will be held for a $500 Scoville gift certificate.

All proceeds will support exhibitions and educational programming at the Museum. Tickets may be purchased at The Hyde Museum Store, 161 Warren St., Glens Falls or by calling 792-1761, ext. 23.

This year the offerings will include a wide range of varietals, whites and reds from dry to sweet, ports, and dessert wines.

Burghers look ahead to 2010 after season that disappoints their coach

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Despite his football team’s late season slump that included a string of losses, Warrensburg Football Coach Mike Leonbruno said he is optimistic about the prospects for next year’s gridiron action.

The Burgher football team’s 2009 season ended Oct. 17 with a loss of 46-12 to Bishop Gibbons at a game held in the outskirts of Schenectady.

The game was in the first level of Section II tournament play.

Leonbruno, who is quarterback of the Glens Falls Greenjackets, said that the Burghers had two maladies: the players’ lack of confidence and the fact that many were sidelined due to the H1N1 flu that has been near epidemic proportions at the school.

“It was same thing we’ve experienced all year — the guys just didn’t come out ready to play,” Leonbruno said.

Highlights of the game, however, featured individual performances that show promise for 2010 and beyond, he said.

Among the game’s high points, Leonbruno said, were the two touchdown pass receptions by sophomore receiver and defensive end Hunter Werner.

“They were long balls, and Hunter pulled them down,” he said.

Leonbruno said Hunter is likely to perform well next year if he beefs up.

“We’re trying to get him to work out in the

weight room,” he said. “We’re looking for a lot of good things from him, and we’re really excited for his future.”

The 2010 squad will be in need of some offensive firepower, considering the talent pool that’s headed for graduation, including Seniors Brendan Frye, Jason Power, Mike Perrone, Cole Tennant, Donovan Santisteban, and Kendall Converse.

Among the players showing promise — stepping up during late season — were Jacob Armstrong Chris Turner, Leonbruno said.

year, but we didn’t show it all the time on the football field,” he said. “I never got 100 percent from the team.”

Despite Leonbruno’s gloomy review of the season, the players had fun.

“The players enjoyed it, but they would have enjoyed it a lot more if we won as many games as we should have,” the coach said. “It was a frustrating season.”

All the players, he said, will need conditioning.

“One of best things of the 2009 season was that the Seniors admitted they lost out by not getting in weight room as much as they could this year,” he said. “Hopefully by letting our underclassmen know this fact will inspire then to get in the weight room and work out.”

Symphony teams up with McComb for concert GLENS FALLS — The Glens Falls Symphony Orchestra is offering an afternoon of water-themed music Sunday Nov. 22 featuring acclaimed contralto Meredith Parsons McComb of Bolton.

In a concert entitled “Sound Waves,” the 4 p.m. performance in the Glens Falls High School auditorium includes Elgar ’s “Sea Pictures,” in which McComb is the vocalist.

“Sea Pictures is a wonderful musical romp, and it’s sung in English,” McComb said this week. “I’m excited to be performing with symphony orchestra again.”

Sea Pictures is considered a major masterwork for contralto, about 20 minutes in length, a symphony publicist said.

“The music will move in magical waves, connecting to your heart and soul,” he said.

Handel’s “Water Music Suite” begins the program. The afternoon concludes with Schumann’s “Symphony No. 3,” also known as the Rhenish Symphony.

Ticket prices are $25 for adults and $10 for students. With ticket purchase for this concert, discounted mini-subscription for the remaining three concerts is being offered.

Meredith Parsons McComb, a resident of Bolton Landing, has sung leading roles in operatic productions in the U.S., Canada, France, Mexico and Israel. She has been featured in international radio broadcasts, including National Public Radio programs with the Metropolitan Opera and the Boston Symphony. She also appears on Deutsche Grammophon recordings and a video of Wagner ’s “Ring Cycle” with James Levine conducting.

The Glens Falls Symphony’s 2009-2010 subscription season continues with three concerts at Glens Falls High School on December 6, March 7 and May 9. All concerts are on Sundays at 4 p.m. For details, call 793-1348 or visit www.gfso.org.

By Jonathan Alexander denpubs@denpubs.com The size and allowable development density within Adirondack towns were primarily determined in the early 1970s as part of the creation of the Adirondack Park Agency.

And as towns officials look to expand their allowable density and home-rule authority, they are required to petition the APA for amendments to the zoning map — often as part of a comprehensive plan process.

But as with so many contentious issues in the park, the give and take between local government and the APA, combined with ingrained local fear of the agency, the process of negotiating more development is often doomed.

Dr. Richard Lamb, professor at SUNY Plattsburgh, acts as liaison between the APA and town officials seeking map amendments and hamlet expansion.

Provisions in the APA Act allow towns to request map amendments to change the land-use categories, based on criteria set by Agency policy, he said.

Over the past several months, the proposed map amendments of three communities have been stalled after public outcry against the projects.

“So what we have done here is develop proposals that we felt were approvable and put them in front of the public,” he said. “As it turns out,

Specialist

the public doesn’t want any of them, so be it. That’s the way it goes.”

In 2006, the town of Minerva petitioned the agency to expand its two hamlets. Town officials said that it would allow for commercial development and the construction of affordable housing.

Minerva Supervisor Mike McSweeney said the proposal was shot down in his town.

“I think that it didn’t turn out exactly they way the people in town thought it would,” McSweeney said. “What happens is that the APA makes you give up density to gain density. In a lot of cases you are giving up a lot more acreage then you are gaining.”

After nearly three years in development, the plan was proposed to the town’s citizens in March.

The fact that the APA proposal would have downgraded over 3,000 acres to more restrictive density designations, while 1,445 would have been upgraded — roused the local public and defeated the project.

The lands that would have been downgraded are located well outside of the hamlets, pursuant to the APA’s mandated goal of channeling development to hamlet areas while limiting development in wild forests.

But for property owners located outside of the hamlet, the downgrades represent a devaluation of the land as they reduce the number of lots that a plot could be subdivided into.

stalled after negative local reaction have recently occurred in Inlet and Johnsburg.

Following intense public outcry against the Johnsburg proposal, Supervisor Sterling Goodspeed has spent much of the week distancing himself and the town from the plan.

Johnsburg petitioned for the changes during the administration of former Johnsburg supervisor and current local APA Commissioner Bill Thomas.

Each proposed zoning revision was at the request of the town.

But for Lamb, the literal give-and-take is simply how the process works, and it is designed around the concept of limiting uncontrolled development.

“Instead of just having rural sprawl all over through the mountains, which would result in a highly developed area all over the mountains, the plan was to channel growth into specific hamlet areas,” Lamb said. “The whole plan was designed to promote growth into the hamlet areas.”

The town of Warrensburg is currently in the process of creating a comprehensive plan and hamlet expansion is one of the town’s top priorities.

Warrensburg Town Supervisor Kevin Geraghty said recently that increased restrictions on outlying properties are expected.

“We’re going to reach out to them; they aren’t going to come to us. We will have to reach out and try to negotiate the best deal for our people,” Geraghty said. “What we have to avoid is undue ‘take’ when we decide to do it.”

ADIRONDACK JOURNAL - 13

Absentees FRom page 1 McCoy said Dickinson had nearly won — in a town with an overwhelming Republican margin — because of the Democrat’s expertise and public service.

“Dennis is a local guy who’s lived in Lake George for 60 years, and he’s served the town and done a lot of work for local people,” McCoy said.

“He had a lot of credibility with the voters.”

But the Democrats have done well in the region recently, with the economic collapse occurring nationally under a G.O.P. president, and Scott Murphy, a Democrat, winning the area Congressional seat this last Spring.

“It’s been a throw-out-theincumbent year, and there’s been a backlash against any one who’s been in office,” McCoy said, explaining his slim

Hunter’s out of their senses D espite the fact that humans beings have evolved into a civilized society over the course of thousands of years; we are still considered to be the apex predators on this planet.

For untold millenniums, human beings functioned through the evolutionary process in the role of ‘hunters and gatherers’. Subsistence depended upon what could be caught or gathered from the water and the land. This process was accomplished while simultaneously avoiding being caught or eaten by the some of the very species being hunted.

Until humans attained the capacity for agriculture, the survival of our species depended upon fine tuning the skills of our natural, predatory abilities.

The development of agriculture was essential to the development of civilizations.

Once humans learned to raise food, they rapidly lost the natural ability to hunt.

In his biophilia hypothesis, Harvard University professor E.O. Wilson described this nature heritage in an effort to better understand the human need for nature.

Professor Wilson theorized that despite the fact that humans no longer function as true hunter/gatherers; we remain focused on the natural world. We are attracted to green spaces and we need the outdoors. It is in our genes!

I believe the best proof of Wilson’s theory is evident when a toddler first picks up a stick. Although the child may never have seen a gun or a spear before, there is often an innate response that makes the child point the stick as if it were a weapon.

The same situation occurs when a little boy gets his first b-b gun. There is a certain, inexplicable draw that makes him point the gun at the first bird to fly by or the first frog to jump. It’s a reaction that occurs across geographic, cultural and economic boundaries. Where does it come from if not a hunting instinct in our genes?

Despite this ingrained hunter/gatherer heritage; man has become a civilized creature. Many of us have lost these once vital senses.

Many humans no possess a natural sense of direction, a keen sense of hearing or smell. Some have purposely ‘tuned out’ these senses to block the bombardment of sensory overload that prevails in the modern world.

However, through the long, evolutionary process, our senses have also atrophied from the lack of use. The keen senses that once protected humans from danger and insured our survival are no longer necessary because modern man gathers more and hunts less. Few of us use our senses strictly for hunting purposes anymore.

However, the most successful hunters concentrate on utilizing their natural senses.

In the natural environment,

our senses are stimulated and exercised. As a result, senses become sharper and keener and we begin to hear, taste and smell better. This may even explain why food always tastes better in camp.

For deer hunters, a constant awareness of scents, sounds and sights is key to success.

Despite the fact that ‘scent, scent free and no-scent’ products have become a mini-industry within the hunting products industry; hunters spend little time concentrating on their own sensory awareness skills.

Try a few simple exercises to illustrate the point. Shut your eyes and listen to the wind. Take a few deep breaths and smell the air to see if you can taste it. Crumple a leaf and listen closely to the sound.

When one sense shuts down, others will compensate for the loss. When you can’t see, you’ll hear better; you’ll feel the wind on your cheek and smell the mustiness of autumn’s decay.

In the blackness of an early morning’s watch, a hunter may hear every twig snap.

But once the sun is is up, the sensory concentration focuses on what we can see rather

than what we hear or smell.

The most successful hunters are those that can tune-in to the hunt. They have learned to process the scents, sights, sounds, taste and textures of the woods and to tune out the nonessential attractions.

Whitetail deer utilize scents constantly. They use them for protection, for feeding and for breeding. A deer’s nose provides it’s greatest protection.

It can pick up a scent at a distance of a quarter of a mile.

Successful hunters are those that possess a greater sensory awareness of themselves and their quarry.

Vermont moose season ends Vermont’s moose hunting season finished on November 1 for the 2009 season. It was the state’s 17th moose hunting season in modern times, the first occurring in 1993 when 30 permits were issued and 25 moose were taken by hunters.

According to Fish and Wildlife officials a preliminary count shows that 516 moose were taken with 1,230 hunting permits issued for the 2009 season.

David Godfrey of Holland, Vt shot the heaviest moose this year while hunting in Charleston on October 21.

Godfrey’s 965 lb bull moose also is the second heaviest ever shot in Vermont.

margin.

What resonated with the local voters this year? McCoy said it was the proposed town-village consolidation, without a doubt.

“People in the town are 100 percent against taking on the village and its debts,” he said Tuesday after his win.

McCoy said he would be taking the town in a slightly different direction, after the retirement in December of Lou Tessier, who’s led the town for 26 years.

“I’ll be aggressively exploring grants for water and sewer upgrades in town,” he said.

“Also. we have to use our bed tax money more effectively.”

Observers said the vote turnout was extremely high for a year without a U.S. presidential election.

Tuesday, McCoy said he wanted them to get a message.

“I want to thank all the voters whether they voted for me or not,” he said.

Take a kid along A child is overwhelmingly more likely to hunt and fish if they have a parent who hunts and fishes. However, research reveals that only 25 percent of youths from hunting households are active hunters.

14 - ADIRONDACK JOURNAL

Elections From page 1 on top with 687 votes, followed by former town Planning Board member and chair Bryan Rounds (R), a Baker ally with 610 votes. Incumbent Joseph Barlow (C,I) 547, an insurance executive and a political moderate, was ousted with 547 votes.

Baker had alleged that Geraghty had been extravagant with the taxpayers' money — which Geraghty supporters vehemently disputed.

Then just last week, the Baker-Rounds campaign took an unexpected turn a week ago Thursday when they placed an ad in the Adirondack Journal accusing long-time town Public Works Superintendent Rick Galusha of neglecting the town sewer plant, prompting a state mandate of a $500,000 expansion that would result in Galusha's personal gain — but both were false allegations. Galusha took out a full-page ad in the area daily newspaper disputing the claims, and political observers say that the false allegations hurt Baker, not Geraghty as they were intended to — maybe costing Baker the election. Baker denied knowledge of the ad's origin this week when confronted by the daily's editor.

Geraghty said he was pleased to win, particularly because it was very difficult to win on an independent line in Warrensburg, a staunchly Republican town.

"Despite all the negative campaigning, people recognized that I've been doing a good job, and I appreciate it," Geraghty said.

Geraghty, who shuns door-to-door campaigning, was up against Baker, who some say knocked on most every door in town, delivering a compelling message.

"I didn't like some of Baker's strategies, but he's a consummate campaigner," Geraghty said late Tuesday night.

Neck-and-neck in Lake George race Competition was also heated in Lake George, where Councilman Frank McCoy, trained and anointed by retiring Supervisor Lou Tessier, garnered a slim 592- 584 margin over

former Town Supervisor Dennis L. Dickinson (D), a professional engineer who campaigned to open up local government and make it more responsive.

McCoy had to overcome the allegations that he represented a continuation of a good-ole-boy network that maintained a stranglehold on local politics. A total of 80 absentee ballots were being counted Tuesday as this issue was headed to press.

For the town board seats, status quo was victorious in a five-way free-for-all.

Vincent Crocitto (R,Ic), seven-year councilman since 2002, 582 was on top, followed by Fran Heinrich (R) with 581 votes, who was promoted by the local G.O.P. power brokers.

They were trailed by former Lake George Village Trustee Marisa Muratori with 421 votes. Muratori was known for her innovative solutions to issues, but may have been hampered by running under a Democratic label after not gaining the support of her Republican Party.

Iconoclastic, straight-talking candidate George McGowan, who said the town government was run with secrecy and a dictatorial approach, netted 355 votes. Janie Green (D) trailed with 183 votes.

Independent Candidate Pitkin Wins in Thurman In Thurman, new Supervisor Lawrence "Red" Pitkin (Ic.,I) defeated long-time assessor Thomas "Tuck" Birdsall (R), another straight-talking non-politician, in a vote of 212 to 163.

Democratic candidate Randy Oppitz dropped out of the race just before the election, but he still received 13 votes.

For two open board posts, the incumbents won their seats back. Former Warrensburg Central School Athletic Director Albert Vasak (R) received 267 votes, and incumbent Charles Bills (R) garnered 196. Former Town Justice candidate Glenda Duell (I), who for many months has kept informed on town issues and offered unconventional but savvy solutions to town problems, received 2 votes.

Bolton, Stony Creek, Horicon and Hague results In the town of Bolton, Republican Ronald Conover (R,Ic.), a retired city planner with extensive public political experience, won the Supervisor post, beating former Supervisor
