Jordan-Elbridge Schools could drop 30 employees this budget cycle

By Ned Campbell Under the Jordan-Elbridge School District’s preliminary budget, nearly 30 employees would lose their jobs; the tax levy would increase 7.3 percent.

J-E interim Superintendent Larry Zacher presented the 201112 budget to about 175 residents gathered at a public forum last Tuesday, revealing a spending plan of $27,596,582 — 4.6 percent higher than the current budget.

Staff members who could lose their jobs were notified March 30.

Zacher said the major sources

for budget increase are rising costs of health insurance, retirement costs, unemployment, debt service, legal fees, special education and energy costs.

Residents showed concern over increased legal costs; on Feb. 16, school board President Mary Alley told resident that the board had paid $70,000 in legal fees since Jan. 1. Some residents in attendance last Tuesday suggested the district drop two appeals against decisions made in State Supreme Court in February.

Zacher said savings from this would not be significant, adding that legal costs have resulted mostly from the actions of the

plaintiffs who have brought the suits against the district.

The district’s preliminary budget includes significant cuts to programming. A combined savings of $134,000 could come from eliminating all assistant coaches, golf, tennis and indoor track and modified athletics.

Zacher said the high school could move away from offering electives annually, and instead offer them every other year.

The board proposed reducing funding of marching band, drumline and winter colorguard by a total of $24,000. Students and alumni spoke strongly in supSee J-E Budget, page 19

The West Genesee school board voted March 30 to adopt a $68,326,530 budget for 2011-12 that includes a tax rate increase of 4.8 percent, 53 employee lay-offs, and cuts to programming in all areas.

“I don’t feel good about it, but I feel that it was the right thing to do considering the economic conditions that are out there,” said West Genesee Superintendent Chris Brown.

Two days later, following news that the state Legislature would restore substantial state aid to schools, the district chose to use incoming funds to bring the tax levy increase down to 3.8 percent.

“The little that will remain will go into our reserves to begin to build our budget for next year,” Brown said. The See West Genesee, page 13

Community News Camillus Memorial Day Committee readies for 65th annual parade May 30, 2011, will mark the 65th annual Camillus Memorial Day Parade and Ceremonies with the parade theme of “65 Years of Remembering.” It is also an ‘alumni year,” which is celebrated every five years with the appearance of the West Genesee Wildcats Alumni Marching Band — always a huge attraction.

“The committee is very excited about the events this year,” said Parade Chairman Don Laxton. “We’re working diligently to make this the best one yet, and will also soon announce our very special Grand Marshal.”

The parade and all ceremonies are sponsored and paid for by the Camillus American Legion and VFW Posts.

“Most bands who participate charge a fee,” he said. “Flags that are placed on military gravesites and handed out to parade goers along with several other costs are born by the two veteran’s groups who rely entirely on donations.”

This year, the committee is working with area businesses and individuals to help with fundraising efforts. In addition to the popular “Be a Star…Buy a Star” program, where families can remember a loved one by buying a $10 star painted with the name and placed on a board in front of the town hall, the

parade committee is instituting a “Buy a Flag” program.

For $1, people may purchase a paper flag and have Don Laxton it displayed with their name at participating businesses.

Also, CAM’s NY Pizzeria will host two fundraising events at their Kasson Rd. location from 4 to 9 p.m. April 18 and again all day May 15. CAM’s will donate a portion of their sales to the parade.

“We are looking for more businesses to help us out, both by selling and posting the paper flags and with other fundraising events they may like to hold,” Laxton said. “This is the largest community event of the year and we wanted to give the community an opportunity to participate in their very special event.”

Businesses wanting to help are asked to call Laxton at 3807634 or Co-Chairman Bernie Bunce at 672-5437. To “Buy a Star” for a loved one, call Bob Cudworth at 487-3906. Groups interested in participating in the parade itself are urged to call Laxton or Bunce now to assure placement.

Village of Marcellus proposes 20 percent tax hike editor@eagle-observer.com Marcellus village residents could see a tax rate increase of 20 percent, or $100 per $100,000 assessed property value, if the village board’s tentative budget is approved.

In addition to raising the tax levy, the village plans to cut services and eliminate one part-time clerk position and three police shifts in order to balance the budget. All village employees have also agreed to freeze their wage for the coming fiscal year.

Mayor John Curtin said one factor behind the tax increase was a $160,000 reduction in sales tax revenue from the county.

In January, village property owners received a combined

By Ned Campbell county and town tax bill that was nearly 23 percent lower than the previous year. This reduction was made possible by the county’s redistribution of the sales tax, Curtin said.

“Now there is a need for the village to make up for the revenue taken by the county and passed on to village property owners,” Curtin wrote in the village’s spring newsletter.

Curtin said a village resident paying taxes on a home assessed at $100,000 would have paid $151 less in county sales tax this year; village taxes for that resident would increase $100, making for a total savings of $51.

Another contributing factor toward the heightened tax levy was an increase of debt services

This pie chart, provided by Mayor John Curtin, shows how funds from a $600 tax on a $100,000 home would be applied in each category of the budget. by more than 60 percent. Curtin said this resulted from major infrastructure work on Reed See Village budget, page 12

Mayor Curtin hears back from Buerkle

By Ned Campbell Marcellus Mayor John Curtin heard back from Congresswoman Ann Marie Buerkle after writing her a letter of support for the federally funded, county administered Community Development Block Grant program. “[Community Development] grants have been most instrumental in helping to improve the lives of our residents by upgrading and modernizing village infrastructure,” Curtin wrote in a letter dated March 10. “It is money that has been very well spent and includes ... an investment by the residents them-

selves.”

In her response, dated March 14, Buerkle thanked Curtin for sharing his concerns on funding for the program, which awards matching grants to communities that are eligible based on income level.

“Every federal program is a candidate for scrutiny,” Buerkle wrote. “However, I understand that in these difficult economic times, the CDBG program has played a critical role for localities such as Marcellus. That is why I voted against cutting an additional $100 million from the CDBG program during the recent consideration of Continuing Resolution amendments.”

Marcellus Volunteer Fire Department opens its doors Saturday protection for its residents. Now more than ever, they need more of their neighbors joining their fire department.

On Saturday April 9 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., the Marcellus Fire Department, located on Slate Hill Road, will join volunteer fire departments across the state at their respective firehouses for the first-ever unified recruitment drive, as part of National

Volunteer Week 2011.

“Come on out and join us for this unique recruitment day at our firehouse,” said John Rossiter, Marcellus Fire Department Chief.

“Our current members love what they do; they are everyday heroes who help neighbors in need. We hope our recruitment day will inspire other area residents to join our fire service family.”

In brief Marcellus VFD seeking new members

The Marcellus Fire Dept. is seeking accountants, physicians, business owners, managers, teachers and skilled tradesman who would like to join the department but do not necessarily want to become a firefighter or attend firefighting classes. Anyone interested in becoming a member and helping out with accounting practices, fund raising, policy development, strategic planning and construction projects should call department president Jeff Berwald at 263-4373.

Throughout the day, the Marcellus Fire Department will conduct tours of the station and firefighter apparatus, allow visitors to try on turnout gear. The fire department will discuss the requirements to be a volunteer, answer questions and let visitors know how to get involved in the fire department.

Opinion

A method for the madness

Five weeks ago in this space, I offered the notion that March, and college basketball’s post-season, arrived with a large dose of uncertainty about it, that there was no super team, that the upcoming NCAA Tournament would surprise and confound us before it was done.

Well, I turned out wrong. It wasn’t surprising or confounding. It was downright shocking.

Okay, some people thought Connecticut would stay hot and that Kentucky would continue its late surge and get to Houston. But Butler again? Virginia Commonwealth? What is going on here?

The Rams’ run to the Final Four, after being one of the last four teams in the field and forced to play an extra round, drew particular attention, as much for the vehement criticism that followed Shaka Smart and company everywhere.

Right from the moment the selections were announced, commentators and columnists tripped over each other flogging VCU and griping that the likes of Virginia Tech and Colorado weren’t selected. They questioned the tournament committee’s intelligence, among other potshots.

And even after the Rams’ extraordinary performance in the Dance, these same “experts” lined up again to take one more whack, begging the NCAA to never, ever let the tournament expand again. Better to point fingers elsewhere than admit you were wrong about VCU. See Blackwell, page 11

Assemblyman responds to state budget passing Assemblyman Will Barclay (R,C,I — Pulaski) issued the following statement today after the budget passed when session continued late into the night: “I’m pleased the budget was enacted — on time and without new taxes. By no means was this an ideal plan, but it is the first budget that reflects the economic difficulty New York has faced over the last three years. Previous leaders refused to deal with the financial reality, which is why

cuts in state aid this year are severe. I am hopeful that the tough choices made this year will set the state on a new course — one that creates jobs and grows our economy.

Barclay Job growth would restore funding to those areas and programs which experienced steep cuts this year — such as healthcare and education. This

budget closes the deficit, enacts a better Power for Jobs plan, decreases spending and does not create new borrowing. All of these are important to the overall health of our state, and are priorities I have long fought for.

Moving forward, we need to create mandate relief for local governments and school districts, which would help lower property taxes for New Yorkers and keep residents and jobs here.”

Marcellus Memories

50 years ago, 1961 “Memories of Marcellus” by Frank Griffing went as follows… This week I will tell you about teasels. George Phillips, my wife’s grandfather, came over from England in 1833. He brought teasel seeds with him and settled on West Hill.

He sowed the seed in 1834, and as it takes two years to grow a crop, he harvested his first crop in 1835 and in the fall, he went down east where the large woolen mills were at that time and sold his crop and came home and trimmed and packed the teasels in large boxes and shipped them and that was the beginning of raising teasels in Marcellus and Skaneateles. Teasels were a good money crop when farmers got three or five dollars a thousand, ten lbs. made a thousand. I do not believe they were grown in any other place in the state, other than in Marcellus and Skaneateles. Gallop Brothers of Marcellus were large buyers of the teasels. They had a number of women and men trimming and packing the teasels in the boxes to be shipped. Carl Wood owned the building that was used for trimming. When I was a boy, I worked for George Stuckey and he raised teasels, so I know how it was done. I believe there are some teasels grown now in Oregon and some in France. The last teasels that I know of raised around here were grown by Jack Byrne on Limeledge Road and Will Rickard on Rickard Road.

Happy Birthday notes went out to Ronald Frost, Alice Frost and Belva Taylor on March 31, Michael Wheeler and Charles Schuyler on April 1, Glenn Snell on the 3rd, Jean Whalen on the 7th, Helen Hunt on the 10th and Donald Newell and John Newell on the 11th. Belated

Dannie Smith treated his Kindergarten class at Kasson Road School to cupcakes to celebrate his 6th birthday.

Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Frost celebrated their anniversary on April 2. Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Ryan celebrated an anniversary on April 4.

Kathy Gildersleeve entertained friends at a St. Patrick’s Day Party.

Guests were Pam Oley, Priscilla York, Christine Estlinbaum, Cathy Lynch, Diane Rozelle, Susan Grinnell, Nancy Stevens, Betty Gettner, Ellen Macholl and Christine Florczyk. A wonderful time was had by all, even though St. Patrick’s Day was over.

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sweeney announced the arrival of their daughter, Patricia Ann born on St. Patrick’s Day.

The seven members of the East Hill Green Boys completing the project were: Dixon Bishop, Duane Eibert, Don Oliver, Jr., David Wright, Jim Hotaling, Jim Lathrop and Jim Oliver. Their leader is Don Oliver, Sr. The members of the West Hill 4-H Club were Bill Lukins, David Lukins and Jim Wood. Their leader is Bill Schneider.

Replacing the Valedictorian and Salutatorian of former years, Marcellus Central School has recently selected ten students as members of the 1961 Honors Group. As indicated one year ago, the purpose of this change is to honor more students who have excelled in their studies at a time when graduating classes are growing in size. The Honors Group is composed of those students who have in January of their senior year earned a 3 ½ year grade point average of 3.5 (A minus) or higher, and are eligible to receive NYS Regents Diplomas. This year the Honors Group includes the following students: David Bush, David Driver, Rose Anne Frost, Dawn Harkness, Roberta Little, Elizabeth McNally, Susan Raynor, Christopher Wiles, David Smith and Mary Ann Wilcox.

The West Genesee District-Wide Diversity Committee hosted the third annual Culture Fair from noon to 4 p.m. April 2 at the high school in the cafeteria, the upper gymnasium and the library. The event featured dancing, live music, cultural demonstrations, food samples, artwork, T-shirts, kids crafts, an activity area and much more. Students and families took advantage of the opportunity to celebrate cultural differences and similarities. The event and committee coordinator was Theresa Williams. CLOCKWISE FROM TOP: Seniors Anisha Shetty and Bindya Zachariah set up a booth celebrating Indian culture. Seniors Marianna Gillis and Caitlin Williams at the “Stop the Hate, Spread the Hope” booth.

The K. C. Heffernan Elementary School Sitebased Team staged the fifth-annual Discover Your Talent Day Saturday March 26 at KCH School. The format of this community event provided the opportunity for children to participate in two handson workshops designed to introduce students to something they’ve always wanted to try.

“We are so happy to be offering a day like this for our students,” said Principal Gary Bissaillon. “It promises to really enhance their learning at every level.” More than 300 students had the opportunity to participate in the event which included 24 workshops designed to introduce students to a new skill or something they might like, but have never tried before. Coordinators Peggy Morocco, Sheila Kelly, and Principal Gary Bissaillon are put together this innovative learning experience that was filled with hands-on learning, talented and creative adult role models, meaningful activity and most importantly, just plain fun.

A special thanks goes out to the KCH parents, teachers and community members who donated their time and talent to this exceptional project.

Just as impressive was the creativity and excitement of the wonderful children who attended this joyful day of discovery.

Marcellus High School inducts NHS members

By Dave Taddeo “Some people make it happen, some people watch it happen, and some people ask ‘what happened’. I implore you to go out there and make it happen.”

With these words Marcellus Senior High School Principal John Durkee welcomed students and families to the 2011 National Honor Society Induction ceremony held Sunday March 27 at the high school cafeteria. The ceremony was organized by faculty advisors Heidi Busa and Laura Kuhns along with senior class members of honor society.

the Wildcats still saw the teams of Andrew Albert-Brett Smith, Erik Breault-Mike Plunkett and Shane Heyn-Tanner McGuire all prevail.

Up in singles, Tyler Arnold got a small challenge from Bryan Swierczek, but won in straight sets 6-4, 6-2. Brent Boleslav earned a 6-1, 6-3 win over James Garzia.

New league, new opponents, new class – but it’s the same Bishop Ludden baseball team with the same high ambitions to claim Section III and state honors before the spring is done.

At one point in 2010, the Gaelic Knights were the state’s no. 1-ranked Class B team.

But it could not even get out of the sectional playoffs as neighbor and rival Westhill avenged two regular-season losses to Ludden by winning the sectional final at Alliance Bank Stadium, then winning its second straight state championship.

For 2011, just about everything is different. Ludden has moved from the Onondaga High School League Liberty to Freedom divisions and, at the same time, will move

from Class B to A once playoff time rolls around.

This does keep the Gaelic Knights from meeting all of its neighbor schools – though it will play Westhill in the May 21 regularseason finale – but it gains a new set of quality opponents, including “Holy War” rival Christian Brothers Academy, whom it will face April 11 and May 17.

At least Ludden is prepared for the promotion, with most of its lineup back from last season – and it wasted little time showing its new league foes what it could do.

On a chilly, overcast Thursday afternoon, the Gaelic Knights began 2011 by displaying both pitching and power (especially from Mike DePalma in the latter See Ludden, Next page

Westhill, Marcellus win lacrosse openers

By Phil Blackwell Westhill’s boys lacrosse team enters 2011 still gloating over its nice post-season run of a year ago, with the intention to do more – though it will have to deal with Marcellus, among others, to meet those high expectations.

After going 9-7 in the 2010 regular season, the Warriors, as a no. 7 seed in the Class C playoffs, bashed Onondaga in the first round, then shocked no. 2 seed Cazenovia 9-6 in the quarterfinals before falling to LaFayette in the semifinals.

Seven seniors are gone from that squad, including the likes of Tris Nicola, Alex Lesins, Dylan Tripodi and John Dillon.

But goalie Mark McAnaney is back, as are John Zimmerman, Owen Nicola, Connor Byrne and Austin Webb, so there’s reason to think Westhill could get better.

At least the opening act proved a success, as the Warriors went to Fulton last Wednesday night and took charge in the middle stages

of an 18-6 romp of the Red Raiders.

Already up 3-1, Westhill used a seven-goal spurt in the second period to put Fulton away. A strong second half followed, too, as Zimmerman, with four goals and three assists, led a potent attack.

Webb and Nicola both had three-goal hat tricks of their own. Byrne and Richie Easterly produced two goals apiece, while Jack Centore, Justin Selbach, Ryan Suddaby and Luke Longo also took turns landing goals. McAnaney got an assist as Chris Lawton, with four saves, saw more time in the net.

At the same time, Marcellus, who plays Westhill this Wednesday, had its opener against Clinton – and also prevailed, overcoming a rough start to beat that other group of Warriors 14-5.

This was the debut for new Mustangs head coach Leo McInerney, who took over after previous coach Jim Morrissey left to take a position in Connecticut.

Having gone 8-9 a season ago, Marcellus may have felt some concern as Clinton took an early 3-2 lead. But just like Westhill, the Mustangs scored seven times in the second period to take charge – even though, without injured top faceoff man Luke McNaney, the Warriors won 22 of the 25 draws.

Still, R.J. Linder found the net five times as Tyler Tomeny added a three-goal hat trick.

Both were fed by Luke and Tom McNaney, who both finished with four assists to go with single tallies. Connor Wheeler added two goals and one assist, with Carey Mielnicki and Kevin Hutchings also converting.

On Friday, Marcellus made it back-to-back wins, spoiling Jordan-Elbridge’s season opener with a solid 16-6 victory over the Eagles.

J-E had gone through a tumultuous opening month of practice. Long-time varsity head coach Rick Young and JV coach Mike Smart were removed by the school board,

a cause of considerable controversy in the community.

In stepped B.J. O’Hara, onetime coach at Hobart College, who currently coaches the Rochester Rattlers of the Major Lacrosse League. He was only on the job for a few days before J-E had to open up against Marcellus, a tough task even in the best circumstances.

The Mustangs were steady and strong throughout the first half, building an 11-4 lead. And even when Marcellus cooled off a bit in the third quarter, the Eagles could not catch up, even though Gale Thorpe had five of his team’s goals and Zach Stevenson also converted.

Tomeny took the lead, scoring five times and adding an assist. Mike McNaney, just an eighth-grader, impressed with the first three-goal hat trick of his varsity career as Linder got two goals and two assists. Dalton Wenzel and Tom McNaney both finished with two goals and one assist. J-E goalie Ben Cheney made 14 saves.

category) in an 11-0 shutout of Fulton.

Ryan O’Kane started and went four innings for the win, striking out seven while allowing four hits. Relievers James Murray and Corey Hunter combined for five strikeouts and just one hit allowed in three innings of work.

Meanwhile, Mike DePalma crushed Fulton pitching, twice going deep for home runs and finishing with seven RBIs. Murray also had a round-tripper, part of a threehit barrage that included a double, single, four runs scored and two RBIs. O’Kane and Corey Poplawski also drove in runs as Chris Davis added a pair of hits, including a double.

Before the first clash with CBA, the Gaelic Knights are set to face Fowler and East Syracuse-Minoa this week, weather permitting. Westhill, meanwhile, is set to begin its quest for a third straight state title Friday when it hosts Cazenovia.

Marcellus girls lacrosse edged by Skaneateles

By Phil Blackwell So another season where the Marcellus girls lacrosse team feels that, at last, it will get to the top of the Section III Class C ranks is underway.

Yet a haunting and familiar theme lingers from seasons past – namely, close and agonizing defeats to its neighbors from Skaneateles.

The latest chapter in the Marcellus-Skaneateles saga unfolded last Thursday night, the Mustangs taking a 9-8 defeat where it led by as many as four in the second half, but could not hold on.

Having smashed Cicero-North Syracuse 16-3 in its opener two nights earlier, Marcellus arrived with a full amount of confidence, even though Skaneatlees returned most of its starters from 2010, when it lost the Section III Class C final to Carthage.

Right away, the Lakers’ plan was obvious – stop Floridabound senior Nora Barry and slow the tempo down.

On both ends in the first half, Skaneateles succeeded, holding Barry without a point by putting two defenders on her at all times, even when she didn’t have the ball. Then when Barry did gain possession, as many as four defenders would swarm her.

Still, the Mustangs erased three different one-goal deficits

LOWER RIGHT: Skaneatles senior Dianne Vitkus defends sophomore Molly McGuane of Marcellus. to lead 4-3 at halftime. Catherine Nolan scored twice, while Ellen Brooks and Molly McGuane also

converted, the goals coming on solo runs through space opened up by all the attention given to Barry.

Early in the second half, Barry started finding space to operate – and promptly burned Skaneateles for three straight goals (two of them 32 seconds apart), stretching the Marcellus lead to 7-3. Yet the Lakers rallied and, thanks to goals by Carly Davis and Erin Callahan 15 seconds apart, moved within 7-6 midway through the half.

Barry’s fourth goal made it 8-6 with 11:19 left, but the Mustangs would not score again, giving Skaneateles ample time to catch up.

And it was 8-7 when, with 1:16 to

play, a yellow card left Marcellus a player short for the remainder

of regulation.

Taking full advantage, Skaneateles tied it when Shelby McNeilly converted with 52.3 seconds left. The Lakers won the ensuing draw and earned a free position with 5.6 seconds to play. Instead of shooting, Callahan passed it to Dianne Vitkus, who snapped a shot past Renee Poullott 2.2 seconds before time expired.

Before this, the Mustangs opened at home against CNS and systematically took the Northstars apart. Marcellus nearly put together a first-half shutout, holding CNS without a goal for more than 22 minutes as it steadily built an 8-0 lead.

When Barry scored for the third time late in the half, she reached the 200-goal mark for her career, and would tally three more before it was done, adding an assist.

Nolan put together three goals and three assists, with McGuane also finding the net three times.

Brooks got two goals as Carli Brienza, Courtney Tomeny and Emily Hennigan each found the net, too.

The Skaneateles defeat hurt, but there will be a rematch May 9 on the Lakers’ home turf. In the meantime, the Mustangs are home again Thursday night to face Cazenovia.

Carrying the usual amount of maximum expectations, accompanied by maximum effort, the West Genesee boys lacrosse team are on the field again.

Coach Mike Messere’s Wildcats are out to win a 10th consecutive Section III Class A title. Many thought that Corcoran, who visited Camillus Friday night and lost to WG in last year’s sectional final, were a real challenger to the throne.

Yet if this is what passes for a challenge, then it might prove a long spring for all the others who yearn after the Wildcats’ throne. Corcoran got slapped around, WG excelling in all phases of the game during a 17-2 romp over the Cougars.

What mostly changed, in the two days since WG opened the season with a hard-

fought 8-5 win over Carthage, was the way its offense performed. Everything, from face-offs to passes to ball movement to scoring when the opportunities arose, was better in this second game of the season.

It took just 22 seconds for the Wildcats to get on the board against Corcoran. Right after Matt Schattner won the opening faceoff, Tim Barber got open, charged in and beat Corcoran’s sophomore goalie, Noah Galvan, who would struggle the entire evening.

Barely a minute later, defenseman Pat Brown took the ball in his own end and made an 80-yard run to the other net, throwing it home to make it 2-0.

Other than when the Cougars cut it to 21 on Dillon Brown’s tally, the visitors never were close. In particular, Corcoran senior See Wildcats, page 17

Eagle Observer, April 6, 2011 11

All this has caused me to ponder the very nature of the tournament and its components – power conferences, mid-majors, and everything in between.

Then I would ask the question – how big should the tournament be? Then, once that is figured, who should get in?

Maybe the 64-team model was perfect, but those days are gone. The current 68 is incomplete if the snubs are obvious. The much-discussed 96 doesn’t feel right, and though the late John Wooden would have loved it, inviting everyone into the field already happens, to some degree, with conference tournaments everywhere except the Ivy League.

Eventually, the number I settled on was 80 teams. Before you say it’s too much, though, let me show you how we would get to that number to insure that (1) the best possible field takes the floor and (2) no more class time is missed, which the NCAA constantly carps about. Here goes: Give the non-power conferences the option of discarding their tournaments (which don’t make much money anyway) and just send the regularseason champion. Then protect their place in the tournament, even if it’s a no. 17 through 20 seed.

- Big or small, every regular-season conference champion goes into the main field. Most likely, a Big East, ACC, Big 12, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC champ would be a no. 1 to no. 8 seed anyway. That rewards the regular season.

- In all, 48 teams would be protected – the top eight seeds in each region, with all the major conference champions and top at-large teams, plus the champions of the 16 lowest-ranked conferences that, in tournaments past, never had better than a 13 seed.

- Then, take the 32 remaining teams, all of them at-large selections by the tournament committee, and play 16 games Tuesday and Wednesday, rather than the “First Four� we saw this year.

Make them earn their place in the field. To save time and travel, use the same sites as the next two rounds Thursday through Sunday.

Under this system, VCU would not have to justify their place in the field. For all you Syracuse fans, the Orange, instead of getting snubbed in 2007 and ’08, would have made it, with a chance to play their way in. All possible snubs, from power con-

From page 4 ferences or mid-majors, would get their chance, too. And TBS, TNT and TruTV would be glad to telecast all of them as the appetizer for the main event, once it’s pared down to 64.

In short, it’s an oldfashioned compromise between those who say that having 64 teams is the ideal format (because of bracket pools, no doubt) and those, like Jim Boeheim, that insist on expansion because, among other things, coaches get canned for not making the Dance.

With nearly 350 teams in Division I basketball, even an expansion to 80 would still mean that less than 25 percent of the schools get in. That’s less than the NBA, NHL or NFL playoffs, about the same as Major League Baseball, and far less than

the bloated college football system where more than half the Division I schools can flag a bowl bid, even if they’re 6-6.

Five years ago, George Mason broke new trails when they stunned Michigan State, North Carolina and Connecticut on their way to the Final Four. Butler did even better, going to the big show twice, and VCU’s stunning rise further confirms that college basketball, at least in late March, is no longer confined to the big names.

Deal with it.

The NCAA Tournament needs to deal with this changing reality, and make sure that the powers and dreamers alike have their chance at glory.

Maybe, with an 80-team field, that could happen.

Parkway and Reed Street.

Debt services account for more than 25 percent of this year’s budget, as opposed to 16 percent last year.

Retirement and health benefits for village employees also rose more than 20 percent this year, an increase over which the village has no control.

The mayor expects taxpayers to question certain aspects of the budget, such as 13 percent of expenses going toward the village police department. “Just having the police around helps to diminish crime and vandalism,�

Curtin said. “Once you start eliminating the police, you open [the village] up for crime.�

For a resident paying $600 in village taxes, $78 of that would go toward the village police department. “It’s a cheap piece of security,� Curtin said.

The proposed budget includes revenues from the recent sale of the village reservoir for $31,000, and $27,067.450 from the county’s Village Infrastructure Program. The village also received $772,775 from the sale of the fire station to the town of Marcellus, which was finalized March 15; all funds from that sale were used to pay off the outstanding debt on the fire station, Curtin said.

From page 3 The village board presented its proposed budget during a public hearing at 7 p.m. Monday April 4 at Village Hall. Curtin said approval of the budget would likely take place at the April 25 monthly board meeting.

In other board news The village board held a pubic hearing at 7 p.m.

Monday March 28 to inform residents of its request for Onondaga County Community Development Grant Program funding.

Curtin said the estimated cost of the project being requested is about $150,400 and the grant would provide 80 percent of the funding, with the village providing 20 percent. “The project will include the trenchless rehabilitation of 907 feet of the sanitary sewer system on Scotch Hill Road, as well as the rehabilitation of five sewer manholes,� he said. “Currently, the village sanitary sewer system has an infiltration problem that is increasing overall costs for sewage treatment, which are borne by all residents in the village.�

Design of the project is expected to occur during the fall and winter of 2011 and production should commence in the summer of 2012, provided the grant funds are awarded.

Sewer rehab on Chrisler and Old North streets The board approved the

hire of engineering firm Barton & Loguidice for the trenchless sewer rehabilitation project of Chrisler and Old North streets in the amount of $14,400.

Spring brush pickup dates announced The highway department announced that the dates for brush pickup in the village will be from April 1 to April 29. The town of Marcellus announced dates for the trash transfer stations.

Those dates: 3 Noon to 3 p.m. Fridays: April 29, May 6 and May 13, 3 8 a.m. to noon Saturdays: April 30, May 7 and May 14 Residents can drop off electronic waste, but there will be a flat $6 fee per television or monitor, town officials said. The required permits are issued through the town clerk’s office, which can be reached at 673-3269.

Olde Home Days committee to meet

The next meeting to plan the annual Olde Home Days Parade is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday April 7 at village hall. The committee meets the first Thursday of every month leading up to the parade, which runs the first weekend in June. This year’s parade chair is Kevin O’Hara, Marcellus Town Councilor.

budget as it was adopted Wednesday used $2.3 million of its $4.4 million in available reserves.

This district will not bring any employees back as a result of the restored aid.

Brown said that from listening to Gov. Cuomo speak, he expects future budgets to pose challenges for West Genesee.

“He’s still very much after the [2 percent] tax cap,” Brown said, adding: “I think if you bring something back, you’re just going to end up cutting it again next year.

We just need respond to the conditions out there, take a leadership role and make do with what we have.”

The 2011-12 spending plan is about $1.6 million less than the current year’s $69,938,455 budget. The district’s proposal includes 53 employee lay-offs for next year and deep cuts to programming in order to close a gap of $5.63 million.

“I don’t feel good about it, but I feel that it was the right thing to do considering the

ings from athletic programs. Modified sports teams will be combined, assistant coach positions will be reduced and game schedules will be shortened.

About $450,000 was saved by reducing fine arts programs. The Chris Brown adopted budget proposes cutting the third-grade string program, fourth-grade band and one year of middle-school art. Middle school students in band, orchestra and chorus will be removed from general music classes and high school art electives will be cut if there is a shortage of students enrolled or staffing is needed in other areas. $100,000 was saved by reducing extracurricular activities; $60,000 was saved by closing the teaching center. $200,000 was

From page 1 Brown said.

In February, employees district-wide voted to freeze their salary for the coming fiscal year, which saved $900,000 and well over 100 positions, Brown said.

“The wage freeze was a true showing of trust and support in our school community and I think the cuts that we had to make, while unfortunate, I think spread pretty evenly through every part of our organization,” he said.

What’s being eliminated The budget calls for the elimination of three administrators — an assistant high school principal, an assistant principal intern at the high school and the athletic director.

Camillus Middle School assistant principal Mike Burns will take over the duties of athletic director for Anthony Pascale when he retires June 3. He will continue to serve as assistant principal. This change goes toward about $300,000 in sav-

taken from the district’s technology budget, $100,000 from utility expenses, and overtime costs were reduced by $15,000.

Aides and hallway assistants will be reduced, and high school electives will need at least 15 students or they will be removed. There will also be fewer issues of the school newsletter next year.

West Genesee, which now has 400 teachers, will have 21 less teachers next year. 8 1/2 of these lay-offs are due to declining enrollment or changes to programming, Brown said.

29 clerical staff, teacher aides and teacher assistants will be eliminated. In addition, the superintendent said he will work without a secretary.

Residents will have a chance to respond to the budget during a public hearing at 7 p.m. May 4 at the West Genesee High School library, 5201 W. Genesee St., Camillus. The budget vote is set for 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. May 17 in the high school auditorium.

Syracuse Home specializes in short-term rehabilitation In a blink of an eye, Michelle Rurka’s life changed forever. On her way to visit her family in New Jersey, she hit a patch of black ice on the highway and lost control of her car.

It flipped several times before resting on its roof.

The impact of the crash broke her back.

Once stabilized in the hospital weeks later, she chose Syracuse Home’s short-term rehabilitation to help her recover from her injuries. “I am so grateful for the care I received at Syracuse Home.

The therapists are welltrained, supportive and committed to helping us return home to our families,” says Rurka.

Syracuse Home’s comprehensive short-term rehabilitation has rapidly become one of Central New York’s most recommende d prog rams.

Short-term rehabilitation at Syracuse Home focuses on recovery by helping individuals build the strength, independence and confidence they need to return home.

The professional rehabilitation therapies staff works with individuals with orthopedic conditions resulting from elective surgeries like hip or knee replacements or injuries such as multiple fractures resulting from accidents.

Physical and occupational therapies develop skills that enable residents to lead independent lives. “After my accident, I never thought I would walk again. Within three weeks of rehabilitation, I returned home. Words cannot describe how wonderful it felt to actually walk into my home. I can’t say enough about my

experience. The nurses went above and beyond their normal duties to address my individual needs. I highly recommend Syracuse Home for short-term rehabilitation,” says Rurka.

Occupational therapies address muscle strength, range of motion, plus cognitive and visual skills that enhance every day activities. When appropriate, speech therapies address treatment and management of communication impairments as well as swallowing disorders.

Located on a beautiful 150-acre campus in historic Baldwinsville, Syracuse Home offers a full continuum of healthcare programs and services for seniors including; independent retirement living, assisted living, memory care, respite care, skilled nursing care and short-term reha-

HOA is comprised of 16 physicians, 22 nurse practitioners/physician assistants and 200-plus clinical personnel in four locations including one in Rome and three in the greater Syracuse area. They are privileged to have patients entrust them with their medical care and allow them to be an integral part of their healthcare journey. HOA treats about 2,500 new cancer patients and 1,300 new patients with blood disorders each year.

HOA is one of just 50 National Cancer Institute Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP) participants in the U.S. There are times when HOA’s patients can benefit from clinical trials using new cancer treatments or technologies that are unavailable anywhere else in Upstate NY. Everyone at HOA is deeply committed to offering their patients the most advanced treatments available. Their clinical staff is highly skilled and certified in their Oncology specialty.

HOA’s comprehensive cancer sites offer infusion therapy and radiation therapy via two advanced Varian linear accelerators for IGRT (Image Guided Radiation Therapy). Their East Syracuse facility also houses the CyberKnife, the world’s most

HOA is deeply committed to offering their patients the most advanced treatments available. accurate radiosurgery weapon, which painlessly treats tumors with minimal effects on nearby healthy cells. The CyberKnife tackles tumors throughout the body including the spine, brain, lung and prostate – even those deemed inoperable.

Because it’s so effective, patients need far fewer treatments.

HOA also offers in-house CT imaging, giving their treatment teams quick, desktop access to each patient’s cumulative imaging, so physicians can closely monitor progress. In addition,

their certified laboratory offers extensive on-site testing for exceptional results and patient convenience.

source that helps to improve the examiner’s ability to identify abnormalities that may have been missed under normal lighting.

Your dental professional will conduct the exam as follows: 1. First your dental professional will exami=ne your mouth and look for any abnormalities.

2. Next, you will rinse with a solution that will help your dental professional conduct the ViziLite Plus exam.

3. Then, your dental professional will examine your mouth using ViziLite.

4. If a suspicious lesion is detected, it will be marked with TBlue, a blue dye, and documented.

What will my dentist see?

Most of the time your dental professional will conduct a thorough oral cancer screening examination that includes ViziLite Plus, and will see that everything looks completely normal. That is good news!

However, there may be times when your dental professional identifies something that looks abnormal. At that point, your dental professional will use their expertise and may ask you to come back in a few weeks to follow up, or may refer you to an oral surgeon for a biopsy.

One American dies every hour from oral cancer.

The typical risk factors for oral cancer such as tobacco use and chronic alcohol consumption may be commonly known, however a new risk factor called HPV is now chang-

ing the face of oral cancer.

HPV has long been known to cause cervical cancer in women and recent studies show that it may play a role in more than 25 percent of oral cancer cases.

The human papilloma virus is a common sexually transmitted virus that is thought to be causing oral cancer in an increasingly younger patient population. Few people, if any, even know they have it.

That is why your dentist recommends a potentially life saving screening exam called ViziLite Plus.

During April, this $50 procedure will be offered at $25 in recognition of Oral Cancer Awareness Month.

“Many small banks face a merger at the time executive and senior officers retire,” she said. “The continued viability of Seneca Federal is not only a tribute to the board, but also to the retiring officers and employees who provided others with the knowledge and skill sets necessary for the association to carry on for many more decades under the thrift charter and to this end we are very thankful to be given this opportunity entrusted to us.”

Looking ahead to 2011, management remains committed to maintaining a steady course in carrying out the responsibilities entrusted to them by the board, as the merger between the Office of Thrift Supervision and the Office of The Comptroller of the Currency occurs in July of this year.

“The extensive regulatory changes brought about by the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) and the passing of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in 2010 marks yet another transformation in banking activities, which can stretch the resources of small community banks,” points out Russo.

Reform will be far reaching into such areas as Federal consumer protection law compliance, state law compliance, and Homeland Security Regulations. The regulatory burden is always disproportionately heavy for reputable lenders such as Seneca Federal as attempts are made by the federal government to police the dishonest few. Russo is emphatic that the association will continue an ongoing commitment to educate and train its employees regarding new and changing compliance regulations to better assist both customers and noncustomers.

She believes that it’s reassuring for members to know our officers and employees have the capability and initiative to successfully implement programs required by the complex regulatory environment. This ability is just as necessary as financial performance in keeping community banks viable as dictated by the federal examination process.

home refinancing, auto loans and other consumer loans, business needs, or our community and charitable financial support, Seneca Federal will be here.”

CANCER BEWARE “I had cancer.

Cancer never had me.”

Yesterday, I got out my fishing rod. I couldn’t help thinking of everyone at HOA. It was last spring when I found out. I was overwhelmed, distraught – and scared. I thought my fishing days were over. Then I went to HOA. My medical team all said, “We have the technology to fight this thing!” and showed me the CyberKnife. It sounded scary, but when I learned how it worked and how safe it was, I had hope for the first time.

Your attitude really inspired me, your staff always encouraged me and your plan of action worked. I may have had cancer, but cancer never had me. Today, my kids and I are heading up to the lake.

At least WG had time to work through those errors, though, because its defense remained first-rate. In particular, Brown and John Sabert stood out.

Brown smothered Carthage’s top player, Tom Grimm, holding him to one assist, and Sabert did a similarly strong job tailing Nick Pirolli and holding him in check. Goalie Tim Birchler had a solid effort in the net, too, earning 11 saves.

Only once was the game tied, at 1-1 in the first quarter. And after Hunter Craig converted, Air Force Academy-bound Dylan Donahue answered 15 seconds later, giving WG the lead for good.

Donahue also finished with three goals.

Tim Barber and Jim

Cordon’s goals increased the margin to 4-1 in the second quarter. Craig got his second and third goals to cut the margin to 4-3 by halftime, but the Comets never got as close again after a thirdquarter shutout. Senior Cody Hoose had both of WG’s goals in that period, and Donahue and Connor Khammar converted in the fourth quarter.

WG now takes its 2-0 mark to its first road game of the season Tuesday, at Baldwinsville, before returning home Thursday night to deal with Liverpool - both of them teams with similar championship ambitions like Corcoran, but in search of a far more competitive result.

Gasparini and R.J. Tinklepaugh also took turns putting in goals.

All told, Hoose had four goals and four assists. Herrington also found the net four times, adding two assists as Donahue earned an assist to go with his three goals.

Many familiar faces are back for WG - 25 players, to be exact, from the 2010 roster. Yet the Wildcats still had to watch a pair of AllAmericans, midfielder John Glesener and defender Joe Fletcher, depart, which had various effects.

Without Glesener, various players must assume playmaking duties - and against Carthage, that effort proved uneven, with a fair amount of wild passes and other mistakes that led to

Derek Eccles struggled, never finding open space as Brown tailed him all game long and held him without a point.

Me anw hi le, B arb er earned a pair of assists as Cody Hoose, Connor Khammar and Corey Herrington converted to make it 5-1 early in the second quarter. By halftime, Hoose had a three-goal hat trick and WG enjoyed a 7-2 lead, but the rout was just beginning.

Dylan Donahue, shut out in the first two periods, poured in three goals during a second half where WG found the net nine times without an answer. During the run, Hoose scored twice in an eight-second span and Herrington nearly matched him with two goals in 10 seconds. Schattner, Bobby

Obituaries William Fesko, 93

Built Marcellus Lanes, co-founded Borodino VFD William (Bill) Fesko, 93, of Borodino, passed away Sunday March 27, 2011, after a brief stay in Community General Hospital. Born in Gary, Ind., on July 31, 1917, Bill moved to Spafford when he was five years old. Raised on a dairy farm, he was one of the students in Spafford’s one-room schoolhouse and went on to graduate from Morrisville College in 1939 with a degree in dairy science. He became the owner of the Borodino IGA Grocery Store in 1945 and then went on to build Marcellus Lanes with his brother George Fesko in 1959. He was also one of the founders of the Borodino Volunteer Fire Department and proudly served the community for many years.

Bill is survived by his three children – Connie Klassen, Gail Shenfeld and Chip Fesko, and four grandchildren. He was predeceased by his wife of 44 years, Agnes Hribick Fesko, in 1991.

Services were held Thursday March 31 at William Fesko the Borodino United Methodist Church. Burial was in Borodino Cemetery. Arrangements were by Robert D. Gray Funeral Home, Skaneateles. Contributions can be made to the Borodino Fire Department.

James R. Dorris, 87 Rotarian, WWII veteran

Jim joined the Skaneateles Rotary club on March 10, 1988 and was sponsored by his close, long time friend, Bob Feldmann, who preceded Jim in death just a short few weeks ago. Jim served as club’s president in the 92-93 Rotary year, and held many positions in the club over the years, including a member of the Board of Directors for a number of years. He was also very active in the Rotary District level as the Governor’s Representative, and later as Assistant governor for the eight clubs that made up the south west corner of district 7150. He was always there when there was a job to be done; regardless of the size of the task. Jim supported Rotary’s international projects through his generous contributions to The Rotary Foundation, and had just reached the Paul Harris Fellow, plus three, level a few weeks ago. He was predeceased by his wife of 63 years Patricia in 2008 and a

grandson Kyle.

He is survived by a daughter Amy (Glenn) Faber; three sons James (Darleene), Edward (Nancy), Kelly (Deb); nine grandchildren Jessica, James and Brittany Faber, Josh, Jim, James R.
