Photo Submitted: The Nelson M. Beard Memorial Scholarship has been established in the memory of a Salamanca educator who passed away unexpectedly in 2017. Beard is shown with his dog, Roy. SALAMANCA — Nelson Beard’s love for teaching took him across the globe — to South Korea and China to Hoke County, North Carolina — but he found a home as an educator in the Salamanca school district. Beard, who passed away unexpectedly in 2017 at the age of 35, became a steady fixture in Salamanca in just three years as a member of the technology community, the building improvement teams and instructional teams of both elementary buildings, as well as the district’s professional development cabinet. Beard energetically taught first-, secondand sixth-grade classes. His dedication to the school community led

the Salamanca Board of Education to vote unanimously to grant him tenure posthumously. Beard was a lifelong learner. A native of Youngstown in Niagara County, he graduated from Ithaca College with his bachelor’s degree in English before receiving his master’s in education from Niagara University. His family, though, remembers him as a creative problem-solver who looked outside of the box for answers. Beard’s creative and pragmatic approach to teaching is best remembered by his quote, “I choose to teach kids everything they need regardless of what it is,

when it is, or how often they need it.” The Nelson M. Beard Memorial Scholarship, established at the Cattaraugus Region Community Foundation by the Beard family, will celebrate his impact at Salamanca Central School and his creative problemsolving for students who embody his dedication and

creativity. An annual $1,000 minimum scholarship award, the Beard scholarship will be for a student from the school district who is planning to attend a two- or four-year college or trade/technical school. Second preference will be for a student from any school in Cattaraugus County who is planning to attend a two- or four-year college or trade/technical school. The student must be in good academic standing and should demonstrate a passion for their intended area of post-secondary study in their application goal statement. The award will also be for a student who demonstrates a need for financial support to attend college. Outside of school, Beard loved cooking, fishing and the outdoors. He applied the same passion for teaching to his hobbies, working to perfect his meat-smoking techniques by building his own smoker. He especially loved his dog, Roy. CRCF’s executive director, Karen Niemic Buchheit, commended the Beard family’s tribute through this scholarship fund. “Educators like Mr. Beard are pillars of the school community and the community as a whole,” Buchheit said. “People like Mr. Beard set an example that students aspire to.” Donations can be made to the Nelson M.

NYLE RR fall train rides begin Saturday in Gowanda

Deer falling prey to insect-borne hemorrhagic disease New York deer are being felled by an insect-borne disease and, as hunting season is underway, state wildlife officials are asking hunters to report instances in which they find the dead animals in the woods. Biologists with the state Department of Environmental Conservation wildlife pathology lab have been getting reports of dead and sick deer this fall. They are collecting carcasses to confirm the presence of epizootic hemorrhagic disease, or EHD. The illness has already been confirmed in parts of Greene and Ulster as well as Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties. So far DEC has received 750 reports of dead deer in those areas, although it may have spread elsewhere. EHD was also spotted in Albany County more than a decade ago. The illness isn’t transmittable to humans or

other animals, but hunters are nonetheless being urged to avoid handling or eating deer that may have been infected. The EHD virus is carried by biting midges, small bugs often called no-see-ums. Outbreaks usually start in late summer and early fall when the midges that carry the virus are abundant. Once infected, deer usually die within 36 hours. Symptoms include fever, hemorrhages in the muscles or organs, and swelling of the head, neck, tongue and lips. A deer infected with EHD may appear lame or dehydrated. DHE is not to be confused with chronic wasting disease, a contagious neurological disease affecting deer, elk and moose. It causes a characteristic spongy degeneration of the brains of infected animals resulting in emaciation, abnormal behavior, loss of bodily functions and death. The DEC says deer

EHD are often found near streams, ponds or other water sources due to the dehydration. The disease has been endemic in Southern states for a number of years and research suggests that drought conditions can help it spread to the north. “Recent research in fact has been tied to drought as an indicator and predictor of EHD outbreaks,” said Matt Ross, assistant conservation director for the Quality Deer Management Association, a group that works on deer conservation. Archery season for deer and bear started Oct. 1 in the state’s Southern Zone. Hunters or anyone else who believes they have encountered a deer felled by EHD can contact the DEC at https://www.dec. ny.gov/about/558.html. Despite the outbreak, DEC experts report the state’s deer population is robust overall.

Breast Cancer Signs and Symptoms

A proactive approach is a key component of protecting oneself against breast cancer. While the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc.® notes that many breast cancer symptoms are invisible and not noticeable without a professional cancer screening, women can keep an eye out for certain signs of breast cancer they might be able to detect on their own. Monthly self-exams can help women more easily identify changes in their breasts. During such self-exams, women can look for the followtng signs and symptoms and are advised to report any abnormalities they discover to their physicians immediately. • Changes in how the breast or nipple feels. The NBCF says nipple tenderness or a lump or thickening in or near the breast or underarm could Salamanca

indicate the presence of breast cancer. Some women may notice changes in the skin texture or an enlargement of the pores in the skin of their breast. In many instances, skin texture has been described as being similar to the texture of an orange peel. Lumps in the breast also may indicate breast cancer, though not all lumps are cancerous. • Change in appearance of the breast or nipple: Unexplained changes in the size or shape of the breast, dimpling anywhere on the breast, unexplained swelling or shrinking of the breast, particularly when the shrinking or swelling is exclusive to one side only; and a nipple that is turned slightly inward or inverted are some signs and symptoms of breast cancer that can

affect the appearance of the breast or nipple. It Is common for women’s breasts to be asymmetrical, but sudden asymmetry should be brought to the attention of a physician. • Discharge from the nipple: The NBCF notes that any discharge from the nipple, but particularly a clear or bloody discharge, could be a sign of breast cancer. The NBCF also advises women that a milky discharge when they are not breastfeedlng is not linked to breast cancer but should be discussed with a physician. Learning to recognize the signs and symptoms of breast cancer can increase the likelihood of early diagnosis, which greatly improves women’s chances of surviving this disease.

Second wave of coronavirus is hitting Cattaraugus County A second wave of coronavirus is hitting Cattaraugus County as an 11th COVID-19 death was recorded Friday and 11 new residents tested positive, pushing the total to 300. “We are experiencing the second wave of COVID-19,” said Dr. Kevin D. Watkins, the county’s public health director. “The first wave was pretty mild. This is penetrating our community. It seems there are a lot (of positives) in our healthcare community.” Two school districts, Portville and Pioneer, were closed on Friday and held all remote learning due to positive tests for COVID-19. Both are planning to reopen on Tuesday. A staff member at Portville tested positive and two at Pioneer. On Sunday, Olean City School District shut down in-school learning Monday through Wednesday after an employee at Washington West Elementary and a high school student tested positive for COVID-19. Classes in the district’s schools resumed for Thursday and Friday. More than 60 healthcare workers in the county have tested positive for COVID-19, Watkins said. It’s difficult to say why, he said — more than one-fifth of the cononavirus cases in the county have been among healthcare workers. Weekly testing of healthcare workers in nursing homes and assisted living facilities has found most of the cases, with many of the workers being asymptomatic. Another one tested positive on Friday. “We can’t pinpoint one thing or cluster” responsible for the recent rise in local COVID-19 positive tests, Watkins said. “It all goes to our going back to school, houses of worship and restaurants.” In addition, there are more people congregating without masks or social distancing, Watkins said. This is partly responsible for the increased cases in the county. “We are going to have to double down and go back to doing things the way we were when this first came out in March and April,” he said. “It’s really getting quite concerning,” Watkins said, noting there have been four deaths this week alone. There were 18 positive COVID-19 tests reported on Thursday. “It’s not easy to pinpoint a source,” he said. “They are scattered all over. It includes whole families.” Watkins urged residents to take precautions to

prevent the spread of the coronavirus by always wearing a mask in public, keeping a social distance and washing hands frequently. Watkins said the 11th county resident to succumb to COVID-19 was a 71-yearold woman who experienced respiratory failure and was unable to overcome her illness despite aggressive treatment. He expressed condolences to her family. The 11 positive COVID-19 tests received on Friday included six women and two men from the southeast part of the county, which includes the Olean area, a husband and wife from the northwest and one woman from the northeast. Of the 11 individuals, five women were asymptomatic and three were symptomatic. Also, two of the men had symptoms and one was asymptomatic. The department’s active positive COVID-19 caseload is now 66 as there are 223 residents who have recovered from COVID-19. The department has begun a thorough contact tracing investigation for those individuals that they have been in contact with and the places that they have visited. Any resident who experiences a fever, cough, shortness of breath or whole body aches should contact their health care provider. In an effort to determine the prevalence of COVID-19 in our community, any resident interested in getting tested, can register for a test at www.cattco.org/ covid-19-test or call 9389119 or 938-2265.

Cancer patients undergoing surgery and chemotherapy may require red blood cell or platelet transfusions, the Red Cross says. In fact, patients fighting cancer need more blood than those with any other disease, using nearly one-quarter of the nation’s blood supply. The Red Cross notes that it is testing blood, platelet and plasma donations for COVID-19 antibodies. The test may indicate if the donor’s immune system has produced antibodies to this coronavirus, regardless of whether an individual developed COVID-19

symptoms. Red Cross antibody tests will be helpful to identify individuals who have COVID-19 antibodies and may now help current coronavirus patients in need of convalescent plasma transfusions. Convalescent plasma is a type of blood donation collected from COVID-19 survivors that have antibodies that may help patients who are actively fighting the virus. COVID-19 antibody test results will be available within one to two weeks in the Red Cross Blood Donor App or donor portal at RedCrossBlood.org. Upcoming blood donation opportunities: • Allegany — Oct. 15, noon to 5:30 p.m., American Legion Post 892, 4350 Route 417W. • Olean — Oct. 22, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Bethany Lutheran Church, 6 Leo Moss Drive, and Oct. 30, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Olean Center Mall, 400 N.

GOWANDA — Gowanda’s Historic Hollywood Theater is shining in the autumn sunshine thanks to a recent facelift. One the theaters’ most unique and recognizable features, a Tympanum of painted brickwork above a semi-circular arch with the name “HOLLYWOOD” on it that faces North Main Street. These outstanding features rise above the marquee and easily distinguish the Hollywood as the centerpiece of the Gowanda Village Historic District, said Deb Harris of the Hollywood. “With the Hollywood’s iconic marquee still removed for restoration, masons and restoration specialists working on lift equipment have been busy working on the upper facade of the theater,” Harris

said. “What they found were loose and chipped bricks, layers of peeling paint and cracked and broken wooden letters spelling out the name ‘Hollywood.’” Masons removed, secured and pointed several rows of brickwork. After removing layers of light blue paint, Brett Swiatek of Swiatek Studios, discovered that the original color of the masonry arch was a much deeper blue. He scraped off the layers of faded paint and repainted the arch in the original shade of cobalt blue. Harris said, “The original wooden letters were held together in brittle pieces and could no longer be restored. Steve Swiat, of Northwood Restoration, fabricated replicas of the original letters out of medium density urethane. The letters were gilded in 22k gold leaf and installed.” The restoration of the facade was made possible with funds from the State Office of Historic Preservation and a 2019 grant from the Community Foundation for Greater Buffalo. “Cars along Main Street have been going just a little bit slower as drivers take a peek at the facade improvements,” Harris said. “When the marquee is re-installed, the Hollywood should stop traffic all together.”

How older drivers can approach vehicle maintenance and social distancing

The outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19 in the winter of 2019-20 required people of all ages and backgrounds to make changes in their daily lives. Elderly men and women were among the groups the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention identified as high-risk for severe illness from COVID-19. That forced people 65 years and older to be especially cautious when engaging in otherwise normal activities,

including having their vehicles serviced. In recognition of the threat posed by COVID-19, many auto dealerships and service shops implemented changes to their operations to ensure the safety of their employees and their customers, including those in high-risk groups. Seniors can take additional measures to ensure they stay safe while having their vehicles serviced. · Inquire about safety measures. Before booking vehicle maintenance appointments, seniors should call the dealership or body shop to determine what’s being done to keep everyone safe. Many such businesses quickly implemented new safety protocols so they should be ready and willing to share this information over the phone. Look for specific information about sanitization practices. Are vehicle interiors being sprayed with disinfectant before and after maintenance appointments? Are employees wearing masks each day? Are employees being checked for COVID-19 symptoms before each shift? These are some of the simple yet effective measures many dealerships and body shops are taking to ensure the safety of their customers. · Ask about pickup service. Some communities that have reopened are encouraging high-risk segments of the population to adhere to stay-at-home measures. Elderly men and women are still vulnerable to COVID-19 even if the number of reported cases in their towns has decreased. Pickup service, in which a service shop employee will come pick up and then drop off a customer’s car once the work is done, can be a great way for elderly drivers to have their vehicles serviced without going out in public. Even if pickup is not policy, ask if it’s possible and request that your vehicle be disinfected upon being returned. If pickup is not an option, ask a younger friend or family member to drive your car in for maintenance in your place.

· Only visit safe facilities. Elderly drivers who must visit a dealership or body shop in person should confirm that waiting rooms feature socially distant seating. If possible, drop the car off and then go for a walk or find somewhere safe off the premises to read a book or listen to music while the work is being done.
