According to officials with

the Vermont Fish and Wildlife

Department, deer populations

are down nearly 15,000 animals

from last year, although the

overall numbers are where they

are supposed to be.

Vermonts pre-hunt deer

population is estimated at

123,000 this year with the great-

est number of deer found in the

southwest, east-central, and

northwestern regions of the

state, Wildlife Director Mark

Scott said last month. This is

about 10 percent fewer deer

than last year, but it is comfort-

ably within the limits of the

deer population goal set in

Vermonts 2010-2020 Big Game

Management Plan. Analysis of

fawn and buck body weights

and reproductive capacity indi-

cates the deer population is in

very good condition.

Despite the decline in

Vermonts deer population,

hunters who spend the time in

the woods should find them-

selves successful.

According to Deer Hunting

in United State: Demographics

and Trends, a U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service study released

in September, hunters who har-

vest a deer spend twice as many

days in the woods, on average,

than those who do not.

The report, which is based

on 2006 data, revealed that hunt-

ers in Vermont spend an aver-

age of 12 days hunting. However,

successful hunters (those who

actually harvested a deer) spent

an average of 16 days in the

woods compared to just 10 days

for hunters who were unable to

harvest a deer.

Those figures are very simi-

lar in neighboring New York

State (the New York state rifle

season begins on Nov. 19)where

successful hunters needed, on

average, 17 days to harvest a

deer whereas unsuccessful

hunters spent 11 days in the

woods.

Regardless of whether

theyre successful or not, hunt-

ing remains extremely impor-

tant to the states economy.

In 2010, 79,603 people pur-

chased Vermont hunting licens-

es and those hunters spend

more than a $189 million in the

state annually.

92 percent of license buyers

hunted for whitetail deer, mak-

ing it the most popular large

game animal by a large margin.

Although serious hunting

accidents are rare, officials

encourage hunters to use cau-

tion in the woods and follow

several guidelines so they and

others remain safe.

Hunters should remember to

treat their gun as if it were

loaded, know whats behind

their target and not shoot over

the top of a hill.

Its also a good idea to wear

blaze orange, especially when

youre moving around so people

can identify each other in the

woods.

Local hunters will want to

keep in mind that the antler

restriction that was enacted in

2005 remains in effect this year.

According to the restriction,

hunters may take a deer that

has at least one antler that con-

tains two points one inch or

longer from base to top. Thus,

spike-antlered deer are protect-

ed.

The Vermont deer hunting

rifle season runs through Nov.

27; muzzleloader season run

from Dec. 3-11.

Vermont hunting licenses,

including a buck tag and a bear

tag, cost $22 for residents and

$100 for non-residents, a slight

increase from last year. Hunters

under 18 years of age can pur-

chase a resident license for $8

and a non-resident license for

$25.

Licenses are available on the

Fish and Wildlifes website and

from license agents statewide.

deer hunting season, including

rules and regulations and a list

It was the robbery of the

Citizens Bank on Poultneys

Main Street that provided the

crucial citing which helped

police to crack the case and

catch both suspects.

Roberts said he was not sure

exactly why the woman in a non-

descript car caught his attention

initially, but once she was out

the door is was clear something

was going on.

On a day considered balmy

for the Northeast in fall, about

65 degrees and sunny, the woman

was wearing a heavy, dark-col-

ored hooded sweatshirt with

the hood up.

I got kind of suspicious

right away, he said.

Having heard news reports

of the area robberies, Roberts

said he was also aware police

were looking for a dark colored

car with New Jersey license

plates.

This car had New Jersey

license plates.

When the woman in the hood-

ie returned it was plain to see

something was wrong because

Roberts said her bag was billow-

ing purple-colored smoke.

A teller at the Citizens Bank

inserted a dye pack into the

money handed over to Ludwig,

the remnants of which could

later be seen on her hands when

she was apprehended outside of

Paul Family Pizza in Hydeville.

Ludwig got into the car and

left the area.

Roberts said he didnt need to

call 911 because police were at

his door asking if he had seen

anything within minutes of the

car pulling out.

It was Roberts taking down

the license plate number when

the suspicious-acting woman

got out of her parking spot at

the Stewarts Shop across the

street that led to the capture of

the pair of suspects in the five

area bank robberies.

It was a good thing I wasnt

busy at the time, Roberts said.

His barber chair faces away

from the windows that look out

on the spot where Ludwig

parked her black 2000 Ford

Taurus Nov. 2 before walking up

the alley and entering the

Citizens Bank branch on Main

Street and showing the clerk a

note threatening a gun and

demanding money.

Ironically, it was the same

spot, Roberts said, that bank

robbers used in 2008 when a

man robbed the same Poultney

bank.

He got 40 months, Roberts

said.

He too was caught thanks to

the observations of Roberts. The

barber brushes off suggestions

he is anything other than a man

who was paying attention in the

right place at the right time.

Im not a hero or anything;

the police who caught him did

all the work. I just gave them the

information, they did all the

work, Roberts said Friday

morning as he finished off

another haircut. They did a

good job; I think it was excellent

work.

In less than an hour after

Roberts gave police the descrip-

tion, Ludwig and Maynard were

in handcuffs.

The following day, Nov. 3, the

couple was charged with three

bank robberies in Vermont

including the Merchants Bank

in Rutland, the Lake Sunapee

Bank in West Rutland and the

Poultney Citizens Bank branch.

Officials have said the couple

will face charges for both

Granville robberies as well, at a

later date.

Roberts&RQWLQXHGIURPIURQWSDJH

spent weeks at a time on

Lake St. Catherine. In August

of 2001 he re-visited our town

and the Lakes Region to write a

Weekend Excursion travel arti-

cle for The Times. The article

was a big hit in the commu-

nity and was posted in many

establishments. If you visit the

Historical Societys 1896

Schoolhouse, the article is still

posted on the stairway wall. It

represents a lasting memory of

how things ( and people) used to

be.

Strum was a reporter and

editor on the metropolitan desk

of the Times, and held various

editing posts on the national

and foreign news desks, as well.

He was also obituaries editor

for five years and, from 2006 to

2011 was associate managing

editor overseeing the night

news operations of The Times.

He is now a deputy national edi-

tor.

This lecture will be an oppor-

tunity to gain insight into the

%\&DWKHULQH02OLYHULRThe Poultney High School

Drama Club proudly presents

30 Reasons Not to be in a Play.

The author, Alan Haehnel,

wrote this play as a series of

vignettes with things that could

go wrong during a performance

for those who feel a call to the

stage.

The production will be held

in the PHS gym Fri., Nov. 18 at 7

p.m. and Sat., Nov. 19 at 2 and 7

p.m. Tickets at the door are $4

for adults; $3 for senior citizens

and students; and free for chil-

dren seven and under.

English teacher and drama

club director Scott Holliman

emphasized that all should

come support your local youth

and performing arts. Holliman

and his cast of students from

grades 7-12 play as many as

seven parts and are ready to

show you a great time!

Its a hilarious comedy,

said ninth-grader Emma Baker.

Theres a little bit of every-

thing for everyone. Its going to

be a blast!

Eleventh-grader and Swiss

foreign exchange student, Livia

Enzmann said, This is my first

play. Its been a great experi-

ence, and Im excited to per-

form.

The play is enthusiastic and

full of energy, said ninth-grad-

er Martin VanBuren III.

I feel that were ready and

sending mixed messages to kids

that may think of doing drama

later on. Plays are actually fun,

and thats why we spend our

time putting them on, said

eighth grader Calvin Brooks.

In a sense its funny putting on

this play due to the name of it.

That is why people will want to

see it.

Seventh-grader Casey

Thornton felt that things have

been going fairly well. People

will enjoy it because its a com-

edy, said Thornton. Weve put

a lot of time and effort, and Mr.

Holliman has made it excellent.

You wont regret coming.

Its over-dramatic in a funny

way, said seventh grader Sky-

lyn Mead. During rehearsal it

is hard not to laugh during cer-

tain parts.

Seventh grader Ethan Colm

said, I like it because it has

good depth to it, is well written,

and I like how we can change

from one scene to the next.

Dont forget to come! It will be a

memorable.

We work as a team, and like

Mr. Holliman said, were one

big family, said seventh grad-

er Kennedy Brayton.

Seventh-grader Alivia Morse

said, Its a funny play, and

were doing great as a team.

Other cast members include

Brockton Corbett, Sarah Coker,

Emma Dailey, Eleanor Dailey,

Lakes Region Police

Cadets, over the summer the

cadets partnered with Fair

Haven Concerts in the Park.

The cadets would show up

before concerts begin and help

set up, carry chairs for the

elderly, pass out raffle tickets,

stay until the end to clean up,

along with anything else that

was asked of them. They would

never expect anything in

return, and I was proud of

them.

This school year we have

been learning how to investi-

gate a crime scene, from the

time an officer arrives at

the scene until the time the

paperwork is sent to the State

Attorney. As of right now we

have learned how to arrive and

start the process of answering

who, what, where, when and

how. This week we will be tak-

ing a break in order to help our

school maintenance team num-

ber the classroom doors. This

will help to make the school

safer.

In December we will be help-

ing to attach the 911 signs to

residents homes in Fair

Haven. A bottle drive to raise

money for our program will

be accompanying this project.

We have one upcoming fund-

raiser that we are hoping to be

able to earn money to buy

equipment to help in more real-

istic training. It is a comedy

basketball game where the

Court Jesters will play against

the student and any faculty. It is

scheduled for April 14, 2012 in

the FHUHS gym.

Gift of Life MarathonWere going for the national

blood donation record! Lets be

a part of the Gift-of-Life

Marathons success story. On

the Morning of Tuesday, Dec.

20, FHUHS will be running

buses filled with donors to

Rutland in order to help reach

the national record goal of 1,969

pints of blood. Any interested

students or staff aged 17 or

older should sign up in the

office or during 5th period in

the lobby. Please see Jake Silver

if you have any questions.

Internet safety

Earlier this month, the

school hosted an Internet Safety

and Bullying Presentation by

Katie LeClerc Greer. Thanks to

grant funding, we were able to

bring this phenomenal speaker

to our school and community.

The students heard the presen-

tation in the afternoon and then

kept her busy with 30 minutes

worth of questions. She was so

knowledgeable concerning the

technology our students are so

familiar with, and the questions

they asked also showed how

much they were lacking when it

comes to keeping themselves

safe on line. She will continue

to answer questions via e-mail

for any students that have more

questions. She then came to the

faculty meeting to offer answers

to any of the school staff that

were left with questions and

encouraged them to attend later

that evening.

She returned at 6:30 that eve-

ning to speak to parents and

community members. This was

restricted to adults 18 and older.

Some of the content was fright-

ening for a parent to hear, but

she also provided solutions to

the cases she presented. It was

so much information and so

well presented. there was so

much information she left her

contact information. Her web-

site is www.klgreer.com and her

e-mail is [email protected] and

she encouraged parents and

students to contact her.
