Judicial Ruling on Ashley Street School project

By AMY PORTER Correspondent WESTFIELD – As news of a ruling in the city’s favor spread regarding the Ashley Street elementary school project, a meeting has already been scheduled for next week to look at next steps. BrianSullivan The ruling was regarding the appeal of an order lifting a temporary injunction filed in 2012 by some residents of Ashley and Cross streets, who opposed using a portion of the Cross Street playground for the school.

According to an article in The Westfield News in November 2012, “Hampden Superior Court Judge Tina Page issued the temporary restraining order in early September after a motion, filed by several residents of Ashley and Cross streets, who contended that the city is violating state and federal law by using part MAYOR BRIAN of the Cross Street playground for the $36 million P. SULLIVAN school project. The residents filed the suit earlier this year, charging that the city is violating Article 97 of the Massachusetts General Law which sets preservation protection for open-space land.”

The injunction was overturned by Judge Daniel A. Ford that same year, who said the property did not fall under Article 97, a decision that was appealed by the residents opposed to the project. An article in The Westfield News from October 15, 2014 detailed the court vacating the injunction.

Yesterday, the Massachusetts Appeals Court said Judge Ford was right, according to Mayor Brian P. Sullivan.

“The appeals court affirmed the ruling of the lower court, saying yes, the lower court got it right, and the appeal is denied,” Sullivan said. “The city is now in good standing in regards to building the school,” he added.

Sullivan said that one of the reasons for the meeting next week is to make sure they have the proper direction to move forward. He said he has met with the Massachusetts School Building Association (MSBA) since taking office to make sure the financial agreement they promised four years ago to build the school is still intact. He said the city will also reconvene the School Building Committee as part of the process.

“We’ve been waiting for this decision to come,” said WPS Superintendent Stefan Czaporowski. “We want to STEFAN CZAPOROWSKI See Ashley Street, Page 7

Westfield High School Principal Charles Jendrysik holds Meet and Greet

By AMY PORTER Correspondent WESTFIELD – At the end of his first full week, Charles Jendrysik, Westfield High School’s new principal held a Meet and Greet in the library for teachers, parents, and community members.

Several teachers arrived first, to introduce themselves and chat about the upcoming first week of school. Jendrysik outlined some initial plans and spoke about his first week on the job, which included a packed freshman orientation on Wednesday morning.

He said the auditorium was full, standing room only in the back.

He shared some pictures he took to prove to his wife and kids that he wasn’t exaggerating.

“It’s been go, go,go,” Jendrysik said. “Everybody’s been super friendly, super accommodating, super welcoming.”

As teachers gathered in the room, Jendrysik took a few minutes to share his background. He said he has spent his entire 15-year career in Chicopee, where he also grew up and graduated from Westfield High School Principal Charles Jendrysik at Meet and Greet. (Photo by Amy Porter)

By DAN DESROCHERS Correspondent WESTFIELD–On Sept. 6, the Whip City will have art hidden throughout the city, and those lucky enough to find it can keep it.

It is all part of Art Drop Westfield, an event coordinated by former Westfield resident, current Southwick resident and photographer Richard Cowles, in conjunction with ArtWorks | Center City Westfield. The event is part of a larger international project that began in 2013, and has taken place in New York City, Seattle, Tokyo and several other cities around the world. This will be Westfield’s first year involved with the event.

“Here in Westfield musicians have done a lot for the rebirth of culture downtown,” Cowles said. “This is an opportunity for visual artists to kick in and contribute.”

Cowles said that there are currently five artists, including

City Resident Hosts ‘Business Mixer’ For Business Owners

By LORI SZEPELAK Correspondent WESTFIELD-City resident and real estate agent Lesley Lambert has invited Amber Danahey, the city’s new community outreach coordinator, to share her insights of the business community during a Westfield Business Mixer event on Aug. 30.

Lambert had conducted a similar event more than a year ago on her own for the business community and realized the importance of the networking referral potential for business owners.

“The first event I hosted included a workshop on using Facebook to share and like each other’s promotions,” said Lambert during an interview in her office at Park Square Realty on Elm Street. “The event was well received so I was encouraged to try the concept again.”

Crafty! Beer-testing lab helps students learn chemistry PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A Maine professor is hoping to brew interest in her chemistry class by keeping the topic on beer.

University of Southern Maine professor Lucille Benedict tells the Portland Press Herald it can be challenging to keep students engaged in chemistry, so she started using beer as a testing medium.

Benedict oversees the school’s new Quality Assurance/Quality Control and Research Laboratory. The lab has partnered with the Maine Brewers Guild to provide testing and training for breweries and brewmasters.

Students say the beer-testing lab allows them to use science to solve real-world problems.

Classes for brewers begin in the fall.

They focus on how a flawed brewing process can contaminate or ruin beer.

Brewers can also send samples to the lab for testing.

The lab charges $25 for basic testing.

In this July 20, 2016, photo, student Jason Richards, right, checks a sample of beer wort strength with instructor Brett Langschied before the boiling process begins as part of a craft brewing, packaging and service operations certificate class at Grand Rapids Community College's Secchia Institute for Culinary Education in Grand Rapids, Mich.

TODAY IN HISTORY

Today is Saturday, Aug. 27, the 240th day of 2016. There are 126 days left in the year.

O

n Aug. 27, 1883, the island volcano Krakatoa erupted with a series of cataclysmic explosions; the resulting tidal waves in Indonesia’s Sunda Strait claimed some 36,000 lives in Java and Sumatra.

ON THIS DATE:

In 1776, the Battle of Long Island began during the Revolutionary War as British troops attacked American forces, who ended up being forced to retreat two days later.

In 1908, Lyndon Baines Johnson, the 36th president of the United States, was born near Stonewall, Texas.

In 1928, the Kellogg-Briand Pact was signed in Paris, outlawing war and providing for the peaceful settlement of disputes.

In 1939, the first turbojet-powered aircraft, the Heinkel He 178, went on its first full-fledged test flight over Germany.

In 1949, a violent white mob prevented an outdoor concert headlined by Paul Robeson from taking place near Peekskill, New York. (The concert was held eight days later.)

In 1957, the USS Swordfish, the second Skate Class nuclear submarine, was launched from the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in Maine.

In 1962, the United States launched the Mariner 2 space probe, which flew past Venus in December 1962.

In 1965, influential Swiss-born architect Le Corbusier, 77, died in Cap Martin, France.

In 1975, Haile Selassie (HY’-lee sehl-AH’-see), the last

emperor of Ethiopia’s 3,000-year-old monarchy, died in Addis Ababa at age 83 almost a year after being overthrown.

In 1979, British war hero Lord Louis Mountbatten and three other people, including his 14-year-old grandson Nicholas, were killed off the coast of Ireland in a boat explosion claimed by the Irish Republican Army.

In 1989, the first U.S. commercial satellite rocket was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida — a Delta booster carrying a British communications satellite, the Marcopolo 1.

In 2008, Barack Obama was nominated for president by the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

TEN YEARS AGO:

A Comair CRJ-100 crashed after trying to take off from the wrong runway in Lexington, Kentucky, killing 49 people and leaving the co-pilot the sole survivor. Two Fox News journalists, Steve Centanni and cameraman Olaf Wiig, were freed by militants nearly two weeks after being kidnapped in Gaza City. The action series “24” won Emmys for best drama series and best actor for Kiefer Sutherland; “The Office” was honored as best comedy.

Five years ago: Hurricane Irene, after striking Puerto Rico and the Bahamas, pushed up the U.S east coast, prompting evacuations in New York City and leaving major flood damage in Vermont. Hundreds of soldiers and federal agents raided a casino in Monterrey in northern Mexico, two days after an arson attack on a gambling house killed 52 people.

ONE YEAR AGO:

Visiting residents on tidy porch stoops and sampling the fried chicken at a corner restaurant, President Barack Obama held out the people of New Orleans as an extraordinary example of renewal and resilience 10 years after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. Ex-NBA star Darryl Dawkins, 58, whose board-shattering dunks earned him the moniker “Chocolate Thunder” and helped pave the way for breakaway rims, died in Allentown, Pennsylvania.

WGBY’s Commitment to Learning Is Yearlong Although many western New England students returned to classrooms in late August.

WGBY’s commitment remains yearlong.

All summer, our Education Department staff(thanks to the many Valley Gives donations we received last May), was able to visit the YMCA of Greater Springfield, Holyoke Chicopee Springfield Head Start Inc., and New North Citizens’ Council classrooms to help stem learning loss (known as the “summer slide”). Staff encouraged summer learning by distributing and reading books, playing interactive games via WGBY’s mobile media lab, and interacting with other hands-on activities.

As a public television and PBS member station, it should go without saying that our production team kept busy, too. In fact, we spent the summer gathering background about the region’s biggest event: Eastern States Exposition. The Big E takes place from Sept. 16 to Oct. 2 and is celebrating its centennial. Our crews will head to West Springfield to capture this season for a special documentary, 100 Years on the Avenue: The Story of the Big E, which will premiere on Monday, Nov. 28 at 8 p.m. Watch the trailer at wgby.org/bige.

To be a part of local community efforts and to help promote our bilingual public TV show Presencia, WGBY will show Puerto Rican pride at this year’s parade. Our very own Vanessa Pabón-Hernandez, WGBY’s Director of Community Engagement & Education, has been bestowed with the honor of Grand Marshal during the Sept. 18 parade for her work in community education and as executive producer of Presencia.

We will also be in Great Barrington this month recording the third annual BerkshireSPEAKS at the Hevreh. This year’s speakers include such longtime WGBY partners as John Downing of SOLDIER ON and public media journalist John Hockenberry.

Finally, this is also the month when the campaign season real-

ly winds up. Frontline’s “The Choice” and PBS Newshour Debates: A Special Report will be featured. Plus, you can get the local facts with WGBY’s Connecting Point series, which has curated ballot questionrelated videos for you at wgby. org/vote.

Yes, it’s been a busy summer and will be an even busier fall for this public television station — and it’s all possible because of public support it receives.

Tuesday evening we had the pleasure of attending the Open Mike night on the green which was hosted by Tom Sawyer. It was great. Well run and lots of very good talent. We will definitely be back. Could you please list how much longer this will take place?

Any one looking for great and free entertainment can find it here at the Park Square green. Once again, thank you to Tom Sawyer. Also, Raven Hollow Winery on Russellville Rd. has very good entertainment on Friday and Saturday evenings and Sunday afternoons. Many other small venues boast great local talent. I wish there was a listing these people could call into so the public could find all there is to do in the area.

Organizers of the Tuesday night music on the green have indicated that the series will continue into the fall, weather permitting.

Letter to the Editor

Neighborhood response to Judge’s ruling in elementary school case Dear Readers, In 2012, our lawyer, Thomas A. Kenefick III, shared his belief that because this case involves the Massachusetts Constitution, either the City of Westfield, or us, would eventually request a final decision from the Mass. Supreme Judicial Court. Though everyone wishes to win a case at every level, we have always been prepared, and have always expected, a request for this case to be heard by the SJC to be made.

Amongst its several statements, The Appellate Court ruled that the Cross St. Playground was not originally acquired by the City of Westfield for public recreational purposes, and therefore, is not protected by Article 97 of the state Constitution.

This train of thought places in danger of development, Boston Common as well as Westfield’s Park Square. Neither parcels were acquired for recreational purposes by their respective towns. Subsequent to their acquisition though, the towns transformed the parcels into public parks. Westfield acquired the James Noble land on Cross St. in exchange for approximately $100 in taxes owed by his heirs. Westfield then developed the Cross Street Playground on that site. Boston Common and Park Square were developed on their respective sites, too.

As Appellate Court judge, J. Milkey wrote in his opinion, “…nearly all of Boston Common was originally acquired by the town of Boston in 1633 for general purposes, but over time, ‘it is plain that the town has dedicated the Common and Public Garden to the use of a the public as a public park.”

Though Judge Milkey wrote that the Court’s ruling was constrained by the SJC’s interpretation of two other Article 97 related cases, he added,”I write separately…in the hope that the Supreme Judicial Court someday will revisit such precedent.” Our side couldn’t agree more.

Former Mayor Knapik’s 2010 Open Space and Recreational Plan clearly describes the CSP as being under “full” protection on page 37, and being a “Permanently Protected Open Space” on page 73. The Appellate Court wrote that that the Mayor’s Open Space Plan describes the Cross St. Playground simply as “open space”, as if the CSP were some ‘general purpose’ land without meaningful municipal designation. We wonder who informed the Appellate Court judges that the CSP was simply “open space”? Prior to its want for ‘free’ space to build a school upon, it is clear that the City of Westfield coveted the Cross St. Playground as a permanently protected public recreational facility. Westfield pulled the same trick in the 1980’s when it built the Paper Mill School upon ‘free’ (HUD granted land) on Paper Mill Road. The City claimed then that it had no idea THAT land was protected by the National Park Service.

Nevertheless, it is indisputable that the Cross St. Playground remains protected under the National Park Service. As far as we’ve been informed by the State, Westfield has yet to fulfill the NPS’ statutory requirements in order to use the playground for a school project.

This case has implications reaching far and deep into every Massachusetts city and town that possess “Cross St. Playgrounds” and the like. This is what the case means to us – the protection and defense all innocent neighborhoods being taken advantage of by their local governments.

All of us defending the legal use of protected recreational open space look forward to having an opportunity, if granted, to address the State Supreme Court on this issue.

Sincerely, Thomas P. Smith Daniel J. Smith

Clinton claims controversies behind her; Trump begs to differ

By LISA LERER and KEN THOMAS Associated Press NEW YORK (AP) — Hillary Clinton vigorously defended her family's foundation against Donald Trump's criticism on Friday and declared she's confident there will be no new blockbuster accusations on the foundation, her emails or anything else that could undermine her chances of defeating him in November.

She said the private Clinton Foundation's charitable programs would continue if she's elected, even as Trump and other critics argue they would present a conflict of interest.

In an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," the Democratic presidential nominee kept up her verbal assault on Trump's campaign, asserting it is built on "prejudice and paranoia" and caters to a radical fringe of the Republican Party.

Clinton is looking to counter Trump's attempts to win over moderate voters who have been unsettled by his controversial remarks and policy proposals. In the meantime, he has been softening his tone on immigration and reaching out to African-Americans, a traditional Democratic constituency.

Clinton is also targeting moderate voters — and especially Republicans — by depicting Trump and his supporters as extremists, and casting the race as "not a normal choice between a Republican and a Democrat." She has contrasted Trump with former Republican presidential candidates John McCain and Bob Dole, and former President George W. Bush, praising their decisive steps to counter racism and antiMuslim sentiment.

In turn, Trump is trying to paint Clinton as the racist.

He has released an online video that includes footage of the former first lady referring to some young criminals as "super predators" in the 1990s. The video also shows Clinton's former Democratic rival, Bernie Sanders, denouncing the phrase as "a racist term." Clinton has since apologized for using the term.

Trump tweeted Friday: "How quickly people forget that Crooked Hillary called African-American youth "SUPER PREDATORS" - Has she apologized?"

Trump also says Clinton is trying to distract from questions swirling around donations to The Clinton Foundation and her exclusive use of her private email servers for official business while secretary of state.

In her phone interview, Clinton was asked if she was certain there are no emails or foundation ties to foreign entities that would impact her presidential prospects. She replied, "I am sure," and mentioned her strong understanding about the foundation's work.

But neither issue appears to be going away soon.

This week, the State Department said it is reviewing nearly 15,000 previously undisclosed emails recovered as part of an FBI inquiry that did not result in charges concerning Clinton's use of a private server. The messages could become public in mid-October, just weeks before Election Day. Also this week, The Associated Press reported that more than half the people from outside government who met or spoke by telephone with Clinton in the first half of her term as secretary of state had given money — either personally or through companies or groups — to the foundation.

Former President Bill Clinton said last week that if Hillary Clinton is elected president, the foundation will no longer accept foreign or corporate donations. He also said he would step down from its board and would no longer raise money for the organization.

On Friday, she promised to put in place additional safeguards to prevent conflicts of interest with her foundation should she win the White House.

"I appreciate the concerns that people have expressed, and that's why I have made it clear that if I'm successful in November we are going to be taking additional steps," she said. She said the foundation's charitable programs has been "in line with American interests and values" and must continue, perhaps through partnerships with other organizations.

Top Republicans have found common ground with Trump in his criticism of the Clinton Foundation and her use of the email server. But they have been noticeably quiet in defending Trump against Clinton's charges of racism in his campaign.

Teamsters endorse Hillary Clinton

By COGAN SCHNEIER and MARIANNE LEVINE Politico.com The 1.4-million-member Teamsters endorsed Hillary Clinton, the union announced Friday, in a unanimous vote by its executive board.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters is the nation's fourth-largest union, and the last of the country's labor giants to fall behind the Democratic presidential nominee — well behind the National Education Association, the Service Employees International Union, and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which all endorsed Clinton in 2015. Unlike these other unions, the Teamsters do not consistently endorse the Democratic candidate for president.

The Westfield News

“She will stand strong for the workers of America by fighting to reject job-killing trade deals, enforcing labor laws, and working to provide retirement security for millions of people who have sacrificed so much for the chance to retire with dignity,” Teamsters President James P. Hoffa said in a statement.

The endorsement comes after Clinton supported the Treasury Department's refusal earlier this year to cut pension benefits for Teamsters retirees at the request of trustees for the union's Central States Pension Fund. The trustees had sought permission to make the cuts to keep the fund solvent. Their application was filed under a bipartisan 2014 law intended to stabilize Central States and other so-called multiemployer pensions in financial distress.

At the time of the Treasury decision, former Rep. George Miller (D.-Calif.), who cosponsored the 2014 rescue bill, called it "a calculated response to sort of stop the discussion in this political year." For her part, Clinton called on Congress to “come together around an alternative solution." But the problem remains unresolved and will likely end up on Clinton's desk, should she become president.

Continued from Page 1 At Tuesday’s event from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Short Stop Bar and Grill at 99 Springfield Road, Lambert will welcome the attendees and introduce Danahey who will share some insight into her first 90 days on the job.

“I will explain what I’ve seen coming into this job, as well as my focus going forward and how we can all work together to help each other,” said Danahey.

Lambert noted that after Danahey’s presentation she will encourage attendees to network and explain to others what types of referrals they need.

“Come prepared to network with your business cards and referral wishes,” said Lambert, who has been an agent at Park Square Realty for 10 years and in the real estate business for 28 years.

Lambert encourages everyone to have a “short sound bite” about their business and then explain what types of referrals would help their business grow.

“Take the initiative to meet someone you haven’t met before and don’t feel uncomfortable about asking for a referral,” said Lambert, adding “it can be challenging to ask for a referral but we will all be there to learn how we can support each other’s businesses.”

Lambert is requesting that those business owners planning to attend the free event either call her at (413) 575-3611 or send an email to realestate.lesleylambert@gmail.com.

“We already have more than 30 business owners planning on attending and I want to ensure we have enough refreshments and seating available for everyone,” said Lambert.

Lambert said if Tuesday night’s event is a success she would welcome hosting a similar event in the future.

“My goal is to bring businesses together in a community setting so we can all proactively share ideas on how we can support each other’s businesses,” said Lambert.

The Clinton Foundation has taken in millions from foreign governments, such as the Saudis.

We need an energy policy that works for America, and puts Americans back to work.

The Saudis spend billions buying influence with Washington politicians, while boosting oil production in a slowing world economy creating a massive glut.Artificially low prices have devastated American energy companies and jobs, oncebright spots in our economy that is now growing at a paltry 1 percent.

America needs to create 1.2 million full time jobs each month to put our economy on track. Our economy is only creating a fraction of the jobs needed, and many are part time. A million good paying jobs in manufacturing and the trades go unfilled because our youth lack basic skills such as using a ruler or power tools they need to be trained. High unemployment, hopelessness,drug abuse, homicides and failing schools have ravaged our cities such as Detroit, Chicago, and Baltimore.

Enough is enough. We cannot do the same thing over and over again, and expect a different result. Trusting those who trade influence for access and power, either in government or the media, and are responsible for the mess and insecurity that America is in, with perpetual wars, a stagnant economy and job growth, only ensures more of the same.

Teamsters

Continued from Page 4

The Teamsters' inconsistent support of Democratic presidential nominees is a legacy of Robert F. Kennedy's aggressive investigation of mob ties to Hoffa's father, Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa, when Kennedy was general counsel of the Senate Rackets Committee in the 1950s and, subsequently, attorney general.

The elder Hoffa served a fouryear prison sentence for jury tampering and fraud, then disappeared in 1975 in what is presumed to have been a mob hit.

Richard Nixon's 1971 pardon for the elder Hoffa won the GOP 25 years of Teamsters presidential endorsements (with the exception of Gerald Ford in 1976). The union finally endorsed a Democrat, Bill Clinton, in 1992, possibly because of an investigation initiated by the Justice Department under President George H.W. Bush that put the Teamsters under strict federal supervision through a consent decree. The Justice Department announced last year that it wished to phase

out the consent decree, and a federal judge promptly assented. The union made no endorsement in 1996.

The Teamsters became more reliably pro-Democrat starting in 2000, when they endorsed Al Gore. They subsequently endorsed John Kerry in 2004, and Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012.

WWII Vet Recalls the Battle of Falaise Pocket

By LORI SZEPELAK Correspondent WESTFIELD-For Jay Yaple, 72 years seems like yesterday when he recalls the day he was captured by the Germans during the Battle of the Falaise Pocket, two months after D-Day. Yaple, now 90, is among the 855,000 veterans remaining of the 16 million who served our country during World War II. For Yaple, the wounds he suffered on Aug. 16, 1944 at the hands of the Germans are still a vivid part of his memory.

“I was a private in Company A, 359th Infantry Regiment, Third Army,” said Yaple in his home on Francis Street, as a copy of Patton’s Third Army sat on a table next to his easy chair. He had joined the U.S. Army on Nov. 12, 1943.

“On Aug. 16, our lieutenant sent four of us in the squad to go into town to help tighten up the Falaise Gap,” he said.

The Battle of the Falaise Gap, also referred to as the Battle of the Falaise Pocket, was the decisive engagement of the Battle of Normandy during World War II, according to Wikipedia resources. A pocket had been formed around Falaise where the German Army Group B, with the 7th Army and the Fifth Panzer Army, were encircled by the Western Allies. The Falaise Gap was a corridor which the Germans struggled to maintain which would allow their escape. From Aug. 12-21, the battle resulted in the destruction of most of Army Group B west of the Seine River, which opened the way to Paris and the German border for the Allied armies, according to Wikipedia.

After the closing of the gap, General Dwight David Eisenhower had recorded that “The battlefield at Falaise was unquestionably one of the greatest killing fields of any of the war areas. Forty-eight hours after the closing of the gap, I was traversing through it on foot, to encounter scenes that could be described only by Dante. It was literally possible to walk for hundreds of yards at a time, stepping on nothing but dead and decaying flesh.”

Yaple has a vivid account of his time on the Falaise Gap battlefield.

“I had my M-1 rifle and after walking into the town I saw a German soldier who threw a grenade at me,” said Yaple, noting he then had shrapnel in his right foot. “I was able to fire one round and then recessed into an alleyway, and as I pivoted on my foot, a second grenade went off which caused shrapnel to penetrate my left leg.”

Yaple said he “hollered out” he needed a medic since he had been hit.

“I heard a voice say ‘Can you walk? Go to the command post,’” said Yaple.

Yaple said as he was contemplating his situation German soldiers approached him and he soon found himself sitting in a house with one soldier about 15 years of age who was tracking the situation from a window and another soldier who created a commanding presence in the room.

“One of the German soldiers was a big guy, about six feet tall, and had an automatic weapon on his right hip,” said Yaple.

“I thought he was going to kill me.”

Yaple added he was resigned to his fate.

“I didn’t mind dying,” he said, adding “I just didn’t want to hear the gun go off. When you get into a situation like that, you nullify it or get out of it.”

What seemed like an eternity lasted only a few hours since Yaple says he woke up in a field hospital run by the Americans.

“I don’t know how I got there,” he said. “When I woke up I was surrounded by wounded German soldiers. At first the Americans questioned who I was.”

After a fingerprint test confirmed Yaple’s story, he was “patched up” and flown to England on a C-47 transport plane to recuperate.

“I was one of the first patients to be flown out of France,” he said.

Yaple said while he was in the hospital in England his brother Harold walked in on him.

“Harold served in the 8th Air Force,” said Yaple. “My brother said, ‘you better write home,’ because our parents had received a letter from the U.S. Army said that I had been seriously injured.”

Yaple said he called his mother as soon as he was able to and assured her he was fine.

“I told my mom I got scratched,” he said.

While he was recuperating, he said his therapy required him to start walking.

“I was starting to walk but my right foot was killing me,” he said. “Officials at first did not believe I was injured and took X-rays to confirm that I had three pieces of steel in the arch of my foot, as well as shrapnel in my left leg.”

He eventually arrived “stateside” and served in a non-combative role during his continued recuperation and tour of duty.

Since the shrapnel pieces were in areas that physicians were not comfortable operating on, Yaple said he has lived all these years with the wounds of war inside his body.

“My leg and foot still bother me,” he said, adding his legs still swell up periodically.

By V-E Day (Victory in Europe Day) on May 8, 1945, which signaled the end of World War II in Europe, Yaple said he was told “we don’t need you now” and he was honorably discharged May 20, 1945.

Wikipedia notes that the Falaise battle claimed at least 15,000 German lives as well as nearly all of their vehicles, guns, and tanks. Also, another 50,000 men surrendered or were captured, adding to Germany’s total of 400,000 men killed or captured since D-Day. The Allies had also paid a price for their victory – since D-Day, 209,703 Allied soldiers had been killed, wounded, or captured – 125,847 were Americans.

For Yaple, a native of Woodridge, N.Y., he settled in Westfield and worked as a finishing carpenter for many years, as well as for the former Stevens Paper Company as a slitting machine operator. He proposed to his first wife, Helen Hildack, on a “little bridge on Lockhouse Road,” and they raised three

Jay Yaple of Westfield, a World War II vet who was captured during the Battle of the Falaise Pocket, enjoys the solitude of his indoor garden pond complete with koi.

Jay Yaple of Westfield has vivid memories of the day he was captured by the Germans in World War II. He is seen in his home with one of his favorite books. girls and one boy. Helen Yaple passed away due to cancer and in later years he would marry Grace Shay and the couple had a daughter.

For the past 15 years, Yaple has had the delightful company of Pat Broderick of West Springfield, and both enjoy long drives in the countryside and making dinners together.

“I’m still very active,” said Yaple, adding a lot of his time is spent gardening as well as tending to an indoor koi pond that is surrounded by lush vegetation.

As Yaple soon celebrates his 91st birthday in early September, he still thinks about those war days more than 70 years ago.

Yaple tears up and says, “I’ve often wondered what happened to that 15-year-old boy who I had been held hostage by.”

himself, that will be hiding pieces throughout the city. The event will begin at 12:01 a.m. Sept. 6, and run until 11:59 p.m.

Cowles will be leaving photographs throughout the city, while other artists’ works that will be left include paintings and illustrations.

“I plan to drop three pieces with shopkeepers to get people into the shops,” said Cowles.

Each piece that is left will also have contact information for the artist who created the work. From there, whoever found the art can reach out to the artist. Cowles said that this is done to promote increased communication and connection with the artists and the community, as well as help increase interest in the art.

In order to find the pieces, people can check social media for clues as to where it is hidden. Cowles said that most of the clues will end up on his professional Facebook account, “Richard Cowles Photography,” as well as on the ArtWorks | Center City Westfield Facebook page. Additionally, there is an “Art Drop Westfield” event page on Facebook where people can get more information.

Also, if any artists are interested in participating, Cowles is trying to recruit more for the event. Cowles said that participants do not need to sign up, but it does help to organize and spread the word more if they do. Those interested can contact Cowles by emailing richardcowlesphotography@comcast.net, or by calling (413)896-8968.

You can also see additional works from Cowles, along with his daughter’s poetry, at the mixed media art presentation “Words and Pictures” At American International University, currently displayed until Sept. 29.

Rix said $36 million is budgeted for the whole design and construction process. He estimates that once the ground is broken, it will take 18 months to build a facility.”

Czaporowski also said that now that the elementary project is moving forward, MSBA can consider approving upgrades to both high schools in the city, both of which are in need of new science labs.

“We apply every year. The elementary

school holdup has been holding up progress elsewhere,” Czaporowski said.

“That’s down the road,” Sullivan said, regarding the high school building project. He said the city made the decision four years ago that the elementary school is the Priority 1 project for the school department. With this ruling, the high school and voc-tech science wings have moved up in the priority queue.

“That will be Priority 1A. We need it dearly,” Sullivan said.

Chicopee High School in 1997. After getting an undergraduate degree from Westfield State, a master’s in education from Framingham, and a certificate of advanced graduate studies (CAGS) also from Westfield State, he returned to Chicopee Comprehensive High School to begin his teaching career. There he taught social studies and served as department head, before becoming one of the vice presidents five years ago.

One of the teachers commented that a lot of people at the school are lifers – went through Westfield Public Schools, got their teaching degrees at Westfield State, and teach at the high school.

The first day of school is Thursday, September 1 . Picture day is Tuesday, September 6, all day. Open House will be held on Thursday, September 8, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.

Applications being accepted for two more Westfield Neighborhoods and General Informational Sessions planned WESTFIELD —Westfield residents are seeing Whip City Fiber trucks all over town these days. The high-speed fiber optic project, powered by Westfield Gas + Electric, is continuing to roll out across Westfield with two new neighborhoods now accepting applications. Residents of the Wildflower Circle/Munger Hill Road area as well as the Eastwood Acres/Scarfo Heights area are now eligible to complete their service applications at whipcityfiber.com.

Customers in these areas who submit their applications before September 30 will receive a free month of service.

Whip City Fiber offers full fiber optic service to residential and commercial customers at speeds of 1 gigabit or 1,000 Mbps for upload and download.

“The residents of Westfield are anxious for high-speed internet to be available in their neighborhoods and the installations are really rolling now,” said Dan Howard, Westfield Gas + Electric General Manager. “It’s great to open the process to additional customers in these new areas.

It’s really an exciting time for this project.”

These two neighborhoods now join eight others where Whip City Fiber construction and service activations are currently underway. The public is invited to attend an informational social gathering between the hours of 6PM and 8PM on Monday, August 29th at Paper Mill School and again on Tuesday, August 30th at Munger Hill School.

Representatives from Whip City Fiber and Westfield Gas and Electric will be there to answer any questions relating to the construction and service installation techniques of Whip City Fiber. There will also be educational materials and displays available for those who wish to learn more about “cutting the cord” and viewing their video entertainment “over the top” utilizing the various streaming technologies available. In addition, there will also be raffle prizes and light refreshments available.

Men’s Cross Country Second in Preseason Poll WESTFIELD — The Westfield State men's cross country team is projected to finish second in the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference, based on the preseason coaches' poll released today.

The Owls received 31 points and received one first-place vote in the poll, while top-ranked Fitchburg State led the poll with 35 points and garnered five first-place votes. Bridgewater State was picked third with 27 points and also received a first-place vote.

The balloting mirrored the top three finishers in order at last season's MASCAC Championship meet.

Westfield State will need to replace top finisher Mike Skelly, lost to graduation, who won the league's individual title last year.

Senior Derik Noland is expected to be one of the Owls leaders in 2016. Westfield will open the season at the Fitchburg Invitational on September 3.

Ashley Monahan (#936) and Jessie Cardin (#923) lead the way for Westfield State's cross country team.

Owls Women’s XC Nabs Top Spot in MASCAC Poll WESTFIELD — The Westfield State women's cross country team has been picked to win Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference, based on in the preseason coaches' poll released today.

The Owls claimed six of the seven first-place votes for 36 points. Worcester State ranked second with 29 points, while Bridgewater State was third with 26 points.

Westfield has captured the title in the five-team MASCAC league in each of the last 12 seasons.

Westfield returns its top two runners from a season ago. Junior Jessie Cardin (Sutton, Mass.) won the individual title last season, and senior Ashley Monahan (Agawam HS/Springfield, Mass.) earned all-conference honors at the circuit's championship meet.

The Owls will open the season at the Fitchburg Invitational on September 3.

DERIK NOLAND

Volleyball Picked 3rd in MASCAC Poll WESTFIELD — The Westfield State Owls have been selected by the coaches from around the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference to place third in the 2016 preseason poll.

While Westfield State tallied 25 points, Framingham State leads the poll with 35 and MCLA comes in a close second with 32.

The Owls netted a 4-2 mark during MASCAC play last season, falling to Framingham State, 3-1, in the semifinals.

Reigning MASCAC Rookie of the Year Lizzie Taylor (Medfield/Medfield, Mass.) will look to repeat the success of her freshman season with the team. She led the conference in digs per set (5.12) and total digs (563) while also having second most service aces per set (0.63).

Westfield State also returns senior middle hitter Jen Green (Shepherd Hill Regional/Charlton, Mass.) averaging 1.28 points per set and junior defensive specialist Tiara Vaughn (Falmouth/Teaticket, Mass.) averaging 1.86 digs per set.

The Owls open the season September 2nd at 7:00 PM for a non-conference game in Springfield, Mass. against Rochester Institute of Technology.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Aug. 27, 2016: This year you will be more expressive than you have been in the past. Others seem to flock toward you as a result. If you are single, this sensitive side of your personality gets you far. You might want to date several different types of people.

You will learn a lot about yourself in the process. If you are attached, you need to make your alliance to your significant other abundantly clear. Your sweetie will appreciate having clear boundaries, and the trust and caring between you will grow as a result. CANCER loves to hang out with you.

ZACK HILL John Deering and John Newcombe

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Stay on top of a personal matter. Your intuitive ability will help you process a problem. Express your sensitivity when dealing with someone in your day-to-day routine. You have a way of letting others know where you are coming from. Tonight: Stay close to home.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Express your feelings, and be more responsive to others. Emphasize what is important. Make plans with a friend that will allow greater flexibility, and you are likely to create a memorable adventure. Tonight: Stay in touch with a key person, even if you are out and about.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You suddenly might become aware of the costs of your weekend plans.

You could be planning to host an extended afternoon barbecue or some other type of event. Whatever goes on, you’ll create goodwill wherever you go. Tonight: Let the good vibes flow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You might be more in sync with someone than you realize. Share some of this person’s thoughts with your friends. Your translation seems to have meaning to others. Detach and imagine what it might be like to walk in someone else’s shoes. Tonight: All smiles.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Be willing to lie low and let others take the lead. Note that it won’t be as easy for them to bring people together as it is for you. Practice makes perfect.

Seize the moment to spend special time with a loved one or a dear friend. Tonight: Be unavailable for a change.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Make a point of bringing loved ones together. What occurs could be a spontaneous and memorable party. A partner’s imagination feeds the moment, the activity and the conversation. Be optimistic and share your positive attitude with others. Tonight: Wherever the action is.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your intuition will help you understand what is ailing someone who is close to you. Opportunities come forward because of your awareness. You might opt to spend special time with one person instead. The choice is yours. Tonight: Touch base with an older friend.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Reach out to a loved one at a distance. You have not had time to visit with this person, or even chat on the phone, as much as you would like. Make plans to get together soon. Make special time for a child who means the world to you. Tonight: Bask in the moment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You seem to have little choice but to relate to a key loved one. This person knows how to get your attention. A conversation could trigger your imagination and might lead to a spontaneous gettogether! Invite friends over. Tonight: Don’t forget about a loved one.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Understand what others want from you. You might enjoy how a loved one tries to organize a get-together in an attempt to imitate you. Rather than offer suggestions, just enjoy the moment.

News from a distance could be music to your ears. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Stay in touch with friends. You might want to check out the price of a special item you have been thinking about buying. A loved one could be excessive in his or her willingness to spend money. Understand that you can control only yourself. Tonight: Play it low-key.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Romance is close to the surface, whether you’re with your sweetie or a new friend. You nearly twinkle in delight as you experience these feelings, especially if you are in a long-term bond.

Let go of a need to be so disciplined.

Make the most of the moment. Tonight:

THE WESTFIELD NEWS QUESTIONS & ATTITUDE Compelling questions... and maybe a few actual answers

Any NASCAR future for rosin?

Or is it resin?

SPEED FREAKS A couple questions we had to ask — ourselves Is Harvick back near top of your championship odds board?

GODSPEAK: Not showing the dominance of 2014-15, so he’s off the list for now. Ask me in three weeks.

KEN’S CALL: He never left.

He hadn’t won in a month of Sundays, but it’s not like he’s been running way back there with Jimmie Johnson.

Trends come and go, but the use of rosin on Bristol’s concrete track last week (to improve grip in the bottom groove) was highly interesting. Rosin might not be as versatile as vinegar, but it’s close. The stuff is also used by string musicians, bull riders, ballerinas and a wide variety of others who need grip.

Resin, by the way, is the liquid parent of rosin. Resin comes from trees and becomes rosin after heating and vaporizing. That’s it for science class.

3 THINGS WE LEARNED FROM BRISTOL

Kyle vs. Kez – possibilities?

From my angle, Kyle Busch is eternally petulant, and in racin’, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Brad Keselowski is headstrong and prone to overthinking things. Last Friday at Bristol, these two longtime non-friends had an incident in the Xfinity race, leading Kyle to simply say of Kez, “He’s a dirty racer.” Them’s fightin’ words, assuming anyone fights anymore.

Biggest Bristol surprise: Stenhouse 2nd or Buescher 5th?

GODSPEAK: Chris Buescher is having a Cinderella season.

Considering his 26.9 average finish in 2016, this is amazing.

KEN’S CALL: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. second. I’d practically forgotten about him entirely.

Any similar surprises at Michigan this week?

GODSPEAK: The prime-time drivers will be stacking the lead pack again at Michigan.

KEN’S CALL: Nope. No Stenhouse or Buescher in top 10 this week.

ONLINE EXTRAS news-journalonline. com/nascar facebook.com/ nascardaytona

So forget about it?

Bristol winner Kevin Harvick gets out of his No. 4 Chevy to celebrate the win with his car owner Tony Stewart in the No. 14 Chevy at the Bristol finish line. CHEVROLET/HAROLD HINSON

1. Chevy can win

2. Rosin roll

3. No more Gordon?

Since 2008, Chevrolet has only four wins at Bristol, and one of those drivers, Jeff Burton, was up in the TV booth calling the race last week. Kevin Harvick’s win was the first for Stewart-Haas Racing at the half-mile oval.

Chevy’s last win at Bristol was 2013 with Kasey Kahne.

In order to give the bottom racing groove at Bristol more grip, the track applied rosin in the turns. It worked pretty well, until Kurt Busch missed the rosin stripe on Lap 373 and ignited an 11-car pileup on the backstretch. Busch said he missed the groove “by inches.”

Jeff Gordon finished 11th subbing for ailing Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the No. 88 Chevy. Gordon won’t drive for Junior next week at Michigan because of schedule conflict.

Alex Bowman will wheel the car in the Irish Hills. We may have seen the last of Gordon as a stock-car driver.

Not entirely, because as the playoffs approach and eventually ensue, these two may do what modern-day racers do: “Get in each other’s way” on the track when the chips are down. This is highly entertaining, of course (recall Logan vs.

Kenseth last year), but all the yapping and dented sheet metal always makes you miss the days when racers would take care of these things in caveman fashion.

3 THINGS TO WATCH

Busch

KYLE BUSCH VS. JUSTIN ALLGAIER: Busch’s No. 18 Toyota was sideways on the track, and Allgaier slammed into his disabled car while everyone else was able to clear him in traffic.

GODWIN KELLY’S TAKE: Busch was not happy. He called Allgaier a moron. “I’ve been wrecking for half a lap and they just come on through and clean us out.

That’s stupid,” Busch growled.

1. Done deal SPRINT CUP POINTS 1. Kevin Harvick 2. Brad Keselowski 3. Kurt Busch 4. Carl Edwards 5. Joey Logano 6. Kyle Busch 7. Denny Hamlin 8. Martin Truex Jr. 9. Jimmie Johnson 10. Matt Kenseth 11. Austin Dillon 12. Chase Elliott 13. Jamie McMurray 14. Ryan Newman 15. Trevor Bayne 16. Kyle Larson 16. Kasey Kahne 18. AJ Allmendinger 19. Ricky Stenhouse Jr. 20. Ryan Blaney 21. Dale Earnhardt Jr. 22. Greg Biffle 23. Danica Patrick 24. Paul Menard 25. Clint Bowyer 26. Aric Almirola 27. Tony Stewart 28. Casey Mears 29. Landon Cassill 30. Chris Buescher

762 735 692 689 684 674 659 630 612 604 596 588 583 576 541 537 537 518 514 508 461 441 432 431 407 406 400 375 355 328

After being declared the winner of rain-plagued Pocono II a few weeks ago, we all knew it would be just a matter of time before Chris Buescher would go into the “Chase eligible” column. Buescher finished fifth Sunday afternoon to move up into the top 30 in points. Coincidentally, precipitation again was a factor since the Bristol race was rained out Saturday and staged on Sunday. Does Buescher have a rain dance?

2. Chase countdown With Buescher currently in, that leaves only four openings for the Chase field. The drivers trying to get in on points look rock solid right now, including Austin Dillon, Chase

Elliott, Jamie McMurray and bubble boy Ryan Newman, who is 35 points up on Trevor Bayne. Behind Bayne are Kyle Larson, Kasey Kahne and AJ Allmendinger. Look for Larson and Kahne to make a hard run at a Cup victory in the next three weeks.

3. Johnson blues Jimmie Johnson scored two early-season wins and went into summer hibernation. In

his past 10 starts, “Six Time” has a pair of top-10 finishes, including seventh at Bristol Sunday. In that 10-race span, he has four DNFs, all raceending crashes. There is still time left in the season, but it doesn’t look like Johnson in particular or Hendrick Motorsports in general will get its racing genie back in the bottle.
