Bread for Lifeseeks

Thanksgivingday help

by Sandm C. Malneristaff writer

What Is needled more than any-

thing else, according to Darlene

Steele, Director of Bread Ior Life. are

volunteer drivers.

Steele is seeking to deliver 20 to

25 Thanksgiving Day meals to shut-

ins who ordinarily might not have the

opportunity to feast on the traditional

"We only need a• hour of their

:ime." she said. suggesting thatdrivers arrive at St. Paul's Episcopal

Church at 10 a.m. on November 23.The major task of locating the

•f•m ar five •l-:eys m•d h'-h•nun,h'-,g• for

the meal has been aceomplished, ac-

cording to Steele.

One donor, who ask not to be

identified, will deliver several apple

•les for the day.

There is even enough voluntary

staff to prepare the meal at 7 a.m.

Steele, who has shown up faith-

fully each Thanksgiving since 1984

has that task In hand. She is pre-

pared to serve 50 walk-ins and up to

25 take-outs.The meal will consist of the usual

menu, complete with appetizers. It

will be offered from 11:30 a.m. to I

p.m. at the church hail."The Thanksgiving season Is a

time for gathering together and shar-

ing." Steele said. However she was

quick to emphasize that the meal was

strlcfly a meal and not a part of any

religious service. "We don't want to

scare anyone away." she remarked.To volunteer as a driver, or to re-

fer someone for the home-delivered

meal call 276-8389.

Kilns to be installed before next semesterby Liz Hennessey

staff writer

The electric kilns that have been

sitting unused for over a year at thehigh school will soon be fired up.

The SHS Building Adtg•Ixon Com-

mittee and the board of edudi4.ion have

agreed to work together to make sure

the installation of the three kilns takes

place before the beginning of the next

semester.The school board has purchased

materials for the proper installation of

the kilns in an effort to move that pro-

Ject one step closer to comp[etion.

Hook-ups provided by the contractor

were made to accommodate gas. notelectric loins.

The board approached the commit-

tee last week to get the go-ahead for in-stallation. They agreed to pay the labor

costs ff the building committee would

pick up the cost for the materials.

Money that remains in the funds

for h,• v•,'•tional-a•-L,cu•ture and voca

tional-education additions cannot beused for work on the fine arts addition,

where the kilns are located, said Dr.

Louis Saloom, superintendent of

schools. "The money cannot be inter-

New monies will have to be appro-

priated for the fine arts account. When

the project is closed, money that re

mains will go to the town as reimburse-

ment.The committee agreed that the work

would be done In-house but on an

overtime basis, alnce the electrical staff

is new backlogged with work. Cost for

materials will be about $3,500. while

labor will total about $2,000, signifi-

cantl less expenalve than outside con-

tracting, at $3,840, would cost. Workshould take about five weeks.

committee Chairman Nicholas DePaola.

"It's costing rJlOney to keep the project

open."Although the committee began the

process of accepting the work at the

high school at their meeting last week,

some members called for a halt. •tating

that the architect s approval would be

needed before an official acceptance

could be made of the building

Saloom agreed. The committee tstaking a legal risk tf it goes ahead with

out the architect • approval, he said

The commlttee agreed to contact

the architect to move ahead with ap

proval of the building.

Also discussed at the commlttee

meeting was the recent leakage from

the high school addition roof. Water

from heavy rains of recent weeks found

Its way through holes and •aqhes m

the hatchway to the roof has been

oommittee update

Superintendent of Schools Dr

Louis Saloom ,•xtd the administration is

looking for savings that could accrue

over the cour•,e of the budget year But

the money saved •n't equal $212.000.he said

"At least a •ortion of the S212.000

wlli have to come from the supplemen

tal appropriation request." Saloom•ald

The account had begun the year mthe hole with a $33 000 defied that had

been carried over from the 1988 89

school year Art additional $20.000 was

cut from that account during budgetreallocataon

A tuitto•l cost increase for out-of-

town •pecial education programs added

to the growing deficit and student en

rollment after budget projections last

year and unexpected em-ollments this

fall have multiplied these costs.

Board chairwoma.n Cheryl Waacksaid that the finance board should be

made aware that the special educatmn

tuition deficit is one over which the

s•hool board has no control, but that It

takes prior|ty

"Our respons•hility is to determine

our needs and our needs budget." saidboard secretary Peter Martin It Is the

job of the finance board to decide

where the money will come from "It •s

our Job to tell them our needs." he said

Walter Derynoski. another board

member, said that a deficit in the spe

clal education account is nothing un

usual. "It occurs in special education

each and every year." he said "We start

out with a fixed budget and in the end

w• have a deficit " But since a commit

merit had been made. it has t9 bc me,'.

he said.

School officials have done a lot to

keep the students in the school system,

but tuition costs still go up for those

placed in out of town programs.Derynoskl said The board will have to

tighten its belt and look to other ac

counts for savings, he said

"This •s a projection." said fellow

board member Zaya Oshana }le sug

gested waiting to see how much of adeficit develops during the budget year

"I'm glad we're able to put a finger

on the deficit in October. with eight

months to go in the budget," said Sa

loom.Saloom said he would prefer that

the school board was up front with the

finance board on this deficit, including

it on the wish list. The special educa-

tion deficit should be an immediate pri-

ority, replacing other less immediate

needs on the list. he said.Otherwise, he said, "it's kind of like

CAC AUDITED CIRCULATION • PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY OF THE YEAR

It's an education systemnot a penal system

A decision made by the board of education to expel four students al-

leged to have been Involved tn the sale of LSD at the high school was crib

Iclzed recently by residents attending a board meeting.

The students, 16 years old and younger, were expelled for terms rang-

ing from one month to the rest of the school year. While out of school

they will be tutored at home at the town's expense.

The move to expel is the most severe action the board could take yet it

didn't go £ar enough for the residents attending theft meeting. Many of

them were openly irritated that the school system Is plcking up the tab

for the home teaching service. Others contended that the four youths be

sent back to school as part of the punlshment, and shunned by fellow

students.Thls suggestion should be Ignored.

Public scourge has not been used as a punitive measure for nearly

150 years by our penal system. It also raises a question: If attendance in

school Is part of a punlshment, how are the other students suppose to

view theft presence at the facthty?

The school board acted within Its stated role in their action: The role

being the safety and edification of the students In Southington.

The school board Is not running a penal colony.

The apparent craving for more punishment may be satiated once the

police investigation into the matter is complete. It is likely the students

will be granted youthful offender status t9 fur.t•er, gt{ar,•n.tee thei.r

anonymity when and if they are charged with a crime, and processed

through our legal system.

The irritation of those residents who spoke out at the board's meeting

is understandable and we share theft frustration. President Bush's prime

time address to the nation is still ringing in our ears, along with vivid

network news specials on the pervasiveness of drugs in our society. All of

this is enough to make anyones blood come to a boll. However solutions

will be found in more sober thought.

Those seeking severe penalties for the four students should address

they're wishes to the court system. The Southington Board of Education

has done it's Job. F.J.P.

FROM THE SENATOR'S DESKHow many farmers does it take to fix a fence?

Apparently. one -- and only one. And that man is Stanley Smoron. And

the real test for Smoron - here's the kicker, here's the real slde-splltter - a

Superior Court Judge has given Smoron to Dec. 31 to accomplish the feat.

Did you ever go to a barn raising? No, probably not. Events like that

aren't really vogue in the 1980s. Those kind of happenings are scraps of

Americana society has chosen to ditch. Folks Just don't go looking for a barn

to raise on Saturday afternoon nowadays.

Society has turned its cold face. The best neighbors are those that can

neither be seen nor heard.

That front ym-d is picture perfect. The marigolds line the walkway: the

grass is llke a carpet. It's been a good day. Admire it from the shade of that

old oak that sits squarely at the edge of the lawn. Then take those clippings.

all that nice green grass, and dump it over the pasture fence. Stanley

Smoron won't mind. After all. it's feed for his cattle. Besides, he's not look-

ing.What happens Is, those cows get a craving for that fresh green grass. The

pasture, after all, isn't groomed nearly as well. Only shoots of quack grass

remain. That green lawn looks mighty tasty.

There is no help forthcoming from local entities. The police charged him

for disorderly conduct. Neighbors complain that his roaming cattle destroy

those perfect lawns. And Southington has decided in all its wisdom to take

him to court.

What will eventually happen to the 200-acre farm where Stanley Smoron

has lived all his life remains to be seen. But some projects do come to mind.

Business condominiums - now that would be a grand use of the land. A fac-

tory - good idea. Finally. get rid of that horrid cow smell and get some de-

cent, civilized sulfur-dioxide drifting on the wind.

There will be other legal battles to fight over the property at 53 Spring St.

The law la a wonderful thing, but it lacks emotion. And right now Stanley

Smoron is fighting a battle of his own, to save his way of life - and save his

cowB.There are legitimate arguments for fixing those fences. Wandering cows

are a danger to drivers, and wandering cows desftoy property. The fences

should be repaired.

The concern among Democrats isbecause the next statewide races maybe critical In determining which partywill control Connecticut's political agen-da for the next four years.

Throughout the 1980"s. and going

back to 1974. the Democratic Party gen-erally has controlled the General As-sembly. A Democrat has been callingthe shots from the governor's chair.

Republicans wrested control of theLegislature from the Democrats for one

Reagan's landslide. But they lost to theDemocrats and O'Nelll in 1986.

Will 1990 be a turning point in statepolitics?

Wlli next year provide the state's Re-publicans with a chance to make a po-litical comeback? Will they be able toelect a governor or gain control of atleast one chamber in the General As-sembly?

He blasted Republicans for offeringwhat he describes as cliche responsessuch as "freeze the budget." But Peltounderstands that raising taxes can car-ry a political price.

Only as the election year unfoldswill you be able to see whether O'Neilland the Democrats can turn around po-

litical opinion. O'Neill could decide tocall it quits, even though he continuesto talk and act like a governor runningfor re-election.

Are Republicans better off runningtheir frontronner, U S. Rep John Row-

the absence of the party lever miflce theselection of a gubernatorialcandidate more or less important tocandidates for the state Senate andHouse of Representatives?

President Bush carried Connecticutover Gov. Michael Dukakis. but stateDemocrats were able to overcome theBush victory. They elected enoughDemocrats to retain control of the Gen-eral Assembly.

By the time election day comes nextNovember. O'Neill will have 10 years inoffice. Some political insiders believe hewill have to spend more time fightingthe theme that "It's-time-for-a-change"than defending his tax and spend poll-cies

If it's time for a change, will thatchange be led by a Republican chal-lenger or a Democratic challenger? WillO'Neilrs decision make a difference?

The next election Involves more thanthe personality of the person who will be

sitting in the governor's office. It's aboutpower - and about which party will beable to exercise that power at the startof a new decade.

Legislating moralityYou hear the

call from time to ;Legalize drugs.

Here are someof the compellingarguments for thelegalization of now-illegal drugs:

You can't legis-late morality. You cannot save peoplefrom themselves by means of legislation.Prohibition didn't work to eliminate theuse of alcohol because It was so firmlyrooted in American culture, and druglaws are Just as ineffective.

By making drugs legal, you wouldeliminate the criminal element and hier-archy involved in their sale. asspeakeasies gave way to nightclubs.

If drugs were legal, the governmentcould regulate their quality and tax rev-enue could be gained from what is now amassive underground economy.

The spread of AIDS could be curtailedby the use of clean needles by users of le-gal drugs.

Et cetera.Bunk Drugs are illegal for good rea-

sons and they should stay that way.

Let's look at some rational argu-meals. No. you can't and we don't wantto legislate morality. Drugs are a dangerto public safety. People using drugs canhurt other people. That certainly falls un-der the purview of lawmakers. We can'tsave people from themselves, but we can- and will - legislate publlc safety

Prohibition didn't work, they say.

Read the statistics and you will find that That still doesn't make it right.the jury Is still out on that one. Because Worst of all. legalization would sent aalcohol Is legal, does that legitimize dope?

Because we are too late to stop one sub-stance, do we open the floodgates onthem all? Do we really need more meansof suppressing reality?

Alcohol is an old. old drug. New "de-signer drugs" are hitting the market everyday. We must try to stem the tide ofchemicals that serve no purpose but toblunt consciousness.

They say that legalization of drugsshould get the criminals out of business.Arguably true. The criminals who peddlemind-altering substances would now belegal businessman, subject to taxes andregulation. If you can't beat "em. tax 'era.

clear message to the child and childlike:It's OK now. We've been fighting for gen-eration to keep our piece of the worldclean and we can't, so we'll stop trying.We've been trying to warn people awayfrom the trap of drugs, but the trap is toobig

Why the turkey

with that one ac-

ceptable style of

dressing? Wky

the weird co•coc-

tlon of tulfnlp•

and the one par-

ticular pumpkin pie?

Local Flantsville and Mdldale resl-

dents cl•a-ifled some of the mystery.

for th• seasonal festivities, which at

theft •iouse requires two birds.•ach 24 pound turkey is stuffed

. a different but traditional stuff-

"Bill likes bread stuffing, but my

sister IAnda likes to make sausage, so

we stuff each one differently." Corrig-

an said. In actuality, she said that her

twenty guests could be served with

Just one turkey.The other ls cut up and usei•i

sandwiches and leftovers which go

home with her children and grand

and setting the table at night.Corrigan likes to take out fan

cy crystal serving dishes and really

fuss. Her grandson Ryan. age 6 usually composes his own prayer, being

careful to include a special remem-

bra• of Lee Ann, Corrigan's grand-child who died in childhood several

years ago.Most of the family attends the tra-

ditional Southington High School foot-

ball game. "It doesn't matter that no

annual Turkey Day at son Bob's

home. She is famous within the family

for her meat pies. The recipe Is one

handed down from her mother. Her

son said it wouldn't be Thanksgiving

without the pastry.Because of the size of the family.

the whole Bafuma clan will not gather

in one spot this year. But daughter Liz

Cocchlola said each person does

something special.She recalled the hand written

prayers of Michael and Michele. Bob

and Marie Bafuma's children, the

youngsters expressed their senti-

We here in Southington take our

gabage for granted.

What I mean is that when we

throw something away, it GOES

away; we never glve it another

thought. This is going to change in

the not-so-distant future.

When the state of Connecticut

mandate on trash recycling and

waste management goes into effect in

January 1991, we'll have to look at

every peice of our garbage with a

more critical eye and ask "Is It pa

per? Is it glass? Is it hazardous?"

Many of our fellow citizens across the

counffy have been asking these ques

t.lons for some time now. and respond

accordingly.

Rural residents in the northeast

have long burned that which is burn-

able. and hauled the rest to public orprivate dumping facilities. Much of

the waste in various communlties on

We wish to thank the Observer for

the recent published apology concern-

ing an editorial about the Water De-

partment in October 17th issue. How-

ever. due to the misleading nature of

this editorial, we feel that our capital

improvement plans deserve further

clarification and •xplanation.The $12.3 million is the esthnated

cost to cover the total amount of a two

phase five year improvement plan. Ap-proximately 16% of the cost involves

replacing or rehabilitating old or under-sized pipe. most of which is to be done

concurrently with Town and State

roadway improvements. The remaining

84% is composed of new facilities and

mains that will provide for the future

growth of Southington as well as en-

hance the quality of service to our ex-

isting customers.

When completed a new state-of-theart. high tech filtration plant will be

built at our reservoirs, along with a two

million gallon storage tank. New stor-

age tanks and mains in the northwest

and southeast portions of town will

bring much needed increased pressure

to customers located in the higher ar-

eas of town such as Loper St., Mill St.and Jeremy Woods Drive. Finally two

new wells are included that will in-

crease our total water supply by 3 mil-

lion gallons per day.While the total cost of these pro-

Jects may appear high, we must re-member that it will be spread out over

There is a concerted effort by

State Boards of Education to modify

the present binding arbitration law.

It stems from the perception

that the present law is unjustly weight-

ed in favor of the teachers.The Southlngton Board of Edu-

cation, following a recommendation by

its Superintendent Louis D. Salaam,

has voted to support proposals tochange the binding arbitration law.

Of particular concern to

Southington Board of Education mem-

ber Peter Martin is "We're not asking to

asking Is to give us a fair shake."

•: AN ENDANGERED

Dear Senator LiebermamThe elephant problem facing our

world has reached a critical stage and re-

quires our immediate attention.It is extremely important that U S

delegates to the Convention on Interna-

tional Trade in Endangered Species(CITES) fight hard for an unamended Ap-pendix I listing which would list the ele-

phant as an endangered species Thesebeautiful animals are falling victim to

poachers interested in their valuableivory. This is an injustice which must be

stopped.Ms. M.Mo

Dear Ms. M.M.:I agree, the illegal slaughter of ele-

phants for commercial gain is appalling

and a disgrace. It is inconceivable that

70,000 elephants have to dle every year

Just to meet the world's demand for ivory

If we do not do something to stop this

devastation, elephants will soon Join the

list of those other species than man has

destroyed.Fortunately. delegates to the Conven-

tion on International Trade in Endan-

gered Species recently voted to declare the

elephant an endangered species byputting it on an Appendix I listing. This

decision will result in a ban on all inter-

national commercial trade in ivory. Andalthough this step alone will not resolve

the crisis, I am confident it is an Impor-

tant beginaing.

cerntng waste disposal. The problem

id that not one of the sohitlons is

easy and none of them are cheap.

These are facts which can not be al-

tered. The new recycling and waste

management laws will require segre-

gation of trash at the point of pickup

or the point of actual disposal. Trash

haulers will heave to comply, and the

costs will be passed on to the con-

sumers. Adding insult to injury, so to

speak, there is no longer a market for

trash.

effective and efficient solution to our

nation's garbage problems, has re-

ceived a cool reception among the

'South f), cific' has its ups and downsby Ken DtMa•-ofamily living editor

"South Pacific" has long been afavorite production of area dinner the-aters because of the durability of mostof the songs in the show. In the 40years since the Richard Rodgers andOscar Hammerstein musical first hitthe stage, tunes such as "SomeEnchanted Evening," and "Youngerthan Springtime" still hold up wall.

In addition, because "South Pacific"'is staged on a desert island paradise,the set preparations needn't be tooelaborate- place a few potted palmsand a hut or two. and you have theappropriate stage design.

"South Pacific* is being presentedby the Candlelight Players at the Beck-Icy Dinner Theatre at 197 EpiscopaiRoad in Berlin on Fridays and Satur-days through Nov. 25.

Though the play is often done bydinner theaters, it is not automaticailypopular because many people remem-ber its long run on Broadway and the1958 motion picture of the same nam•

1 HEATER

REVIEW

Dinner theater production companieshave to choose people with strong voic-es and stage presence, or most theater-goers will go home saying, "She was noMimi Gaynor" or "He didn't remind meof Rosanno Brazz• in the movle."

In the 1949 Broadway production.Mary Martin was Nellie Forbush andEnz•o Pinzo was Emile Debecque. Nineyears later, in the motion picture,Gayner was Nellie and Brazzi portrayedEmile.

Actually, comparisons betweenmulti.million-dollar Broadway musicalsor motion pictures and dinner theaterproductions on a shoestring budget arenot really fair. It's like comparingSouthington to New York City.

"South Pacific" is a tale of two lovestories, one between vivacious NurseNellie Ferbush and French plantation

owner Emile Debecque and the otherbetween Lt Joseph Cable and nativeglrl Ngana.

The Beckley production had its fairamount of talented individuals. RichBlake, who portrayed Captain Brsckett.had a strong stage presence and was afine choice for the commanding officer.Chad Shipley. as Lt Cable, also did afine Job with his role. His singing voicewas strong and had good range.

Comic relief was offered fromPatrique Alton Hurd as Bloody Maryand Frederick Desh-uini as Luther Bfl-lis. Hurd played to the hilt the loud,obnoxious and uproariously funny"queen of the island mamas" who triesto sell the sailors everything they don'tneed• Desimini reminded many in theaudience of Lou Costello. His dough-faced, pleasant looks and stocky frameprovided many laughs, especially whenhe performed a hula dance resplen-dentl in grass skirt, blonde wig and

coconuts.Perry Zanett. as Commander Ha•bl-

son, was selld in his supporting role.

Zanett. a former theater reviewer for

The Observer, apparently wanted to seehow the other half lives. Already,Zanett has had severai roles in commu-nity and dinner theater productions.From his performance in "South Pacif-ic,* one would have to say he has madethe transition well.

Unfortunately. there were a fewproblems in the production. JohnGuerin. who portrayed FrenchmanDebecque. seemed .limited •. his rolebecause of his thick Louis J0rdan-typeaccent. Though his singing volc• wasable and strong_, his acting was weak.in his efforts to maintain the accent, helost sight of the vunerability andstrength-through-adversity the roleshould have had. In the story line.Debecque is driven out of his nativeFrance because he once killed a bully.His native wife has passed away and hehas two small children to raise. And totop It off. he has fallen in love with awoman nearly half his age.

That woman is Nurse Nellie For-bush. portrayed by Mary J. Cantoni.Though Cantonl's voice was fine for adinner theater production, and she

sang her numbers capably, a strongstage presence is what the rolerequired. Cantoni seemed lost andsomewhat confused in the role. Theaddience was looking for someone toJump up and steal the show. andunfortunately, CantonI wasn't that per-SOn.

"South Pacific" at Beckley is beingproduced and directed by Kris McMur-ray. Vocal director is John Guerln.Choreographers are Caroline Austinand Susan Netupskl.

"South Pacific" is being presentedon Fridays and Saturdays through Nov.25. An additional performance will beheld on Thursday. Nov 16. Doors openat 7 p.m., with dinner at 7:30 and theshow at 8:30. Those wishing reserva-tions should call 632-7925.

hanksgiving remembered on the slopesby Tony Crespifor The Observer

Holidays evoke a sense of nostalgia.Oddly enough, same folks choose not tosleep late on the holidays. I have anumber of friends who ski virtuallyevery Thanksgiving and Christmas.One family typically awakens at dawnto enjoy a family breakfast before mak-hag their way to the base lodge at theresort near their home. All this beforemoat folks have even cleated their pil-lows.

These friends are not alone ofcourse. In fact. sametlmes the holidaycrowds can make one quite weary. Butwe're getUng away from the point. Formany families, Thanksgiving ski out-ings are a tradition. Killington Is oneresort which has long been a favoritebastion for ThanksgivLng skiers. Folkshave returned to ski such favorites asBunny Buster, Downdral•t. and Cascadeyear after year. For many, Thanksgivingsignals the official start of a new sea-son, With six mountains, and one ofthe most sophisticated snowmakingsystems in the country, many chooseKiIlington because of its ability to con-sistenfly provide a reliable and snowyexperience. With such a vast expanseof acreage, it would be a rare seasonwhen Klllington could not offer skierssome delightful challenge.

There are other areas which caterto holiday skiers too of course. Okemo'sstartling transformation from a sleepy,friendly giant to a state-of-the-art mod-em ski resort has also made It a popu-lar holiday destlrmtion. The close prox-imity of so many chalets and condoshas made Okemo a favorite haven forfamilies. Then too, with a strong snow-making system, and with one of thefinest children's centers in the East.Okemo seems determined to provide anexperience equal to or superior to thatfound anywhere.

The fact that so many familieschoose to spend the holidays in themountains, at whatever particularresort best meets their needs anddesires, is not surprising really. In fact,I think it may reflect some old and trea-sured values. I know my friends enjoythe exercise, savor the vigorous moun-

taln alr. and find great satisfaction in aholiday meal prepared ha the shadow ofa fine New England mountain. As afamily with one son in college, it affordsan opportunity for quiet get-away andski vacation together. Amazingly. theyeven ski together.

1 must point out that there is noth-ing wrong with those families who donot ski Over the holidays. As a young-ster, although 1 dreamed of northernski trips, I typically travelled sauth toenjoy the holidays with my grandmoth-er. It was a tradition I enjoyed most

during the last remaining years of herlife,

One fall, though, i experienced therare opportunity ha spend Thanksgivingin the heart of the Colorado Rockies. Itis a memory I treasure. That year I hada small apartment located some 200miles from Denver - deep in the moun-tains. We awoke early that Thanksgiv-ing, enjoyed a marvelous day of skiing -some 12 inches of fresh powder hasJust fallen - and ended the day by gath-axing together for a large feast. We werea mixed group - a dozen skiers far fromour families. Our blending together wasa day of unmatched warmth andfriendship.

It is unfortunate when folks com-pare holiday experiences. It is like ski-hag: it implies that same experience isgood and another bad. Personally, Icannot recall very many days when Ihave not enjoyed skiing. Some yearsago my brother and I enjoyed a mar-velous day at Mount Snow. The weath-er'? It was snowing on the North Face -and raining near the base. The rainnever dampened our spirits though. Weslmply were enjoying the day far toomuch.

I believe something happens to thehuman spirit when the holidays areapproached positively. It has nothing todo with barometric pressure or atmo-spheric conditions. It has something todo with emotional turbulence.

I think most of the friends I know,who enjoy the holidays in the moun-tains, understand this. They are notthe type to feel gloom if It rains. Rather,each seems to delight in the enjoymentof skiing together, and in the uniquepleasure which accompanies a holiday

New Departure.And there are others who view

Smoron's plight even morecompassionately, lyon Masse. 30, of 21Irving St. in Bristol said he read aboutSmoron ha the newspaper.

"I read about this old farmer thatSouthington was taking to courtbecause he couldn't keep his cows inthe pasture," Masse said. "It seemedlike a matter of neighbors whowouldn't help neighbors. I decided 1had to go help him."

Masse, who works third shift atPratt & Whitney in Southington, saidhe gets out of work at 7 a.m. Then hegoes over to the Smoron farm and putsin same time setting fence posts and

stringing wire. He has been buildingfences for Smoron for almost threeweeks.

"ALl Mr. Smoron has is his cows andhis ducks and his chickens." saidMasse. "These people that took him tocourt - and arrested him - and eventhe judge that gave him a few weeks toflx his fences - haven't got any idea ofthe magnitude of help that Mr. Smoronneeds."

Masse said that a young mancouldn't possibly accomplish the taskordered by the court In the timeallowed. The fence posts are rotted andmust all be replaced. Masse said, andthe wire has rusted away.

"There's no way humanly possible,unless he gets more help." said Masse,"- but we're going to try."

SKI TIP FOR THE WEEK: St;me

years ago, when I was actively coachingJunior racers. I encountered two skierswho could not quite establish a smoothand polished rhythm to their turns.Finally, after observing their move-menlo carefully, I had beth skiers leavetheir poles at the base of the mountain.

At first, not surprisingly, things canfeel a bit awkward without poles. Soonthough, one's skiing can began tochange. Sometimes, unfortunately,poles hinder rather than enhance bal-ance. Without poles we very much haveto use our feet more efficiently. Instruc-tively, when our poles are missing, wefind the center of our skis. our balanceimproves, and we learn to inltiate ourturns more effectively. When poles areflrmlly restored, the timing can then berefined to a new plateau.

Residents say BOE(continued•f•m page 1)

"Our Job is to say "this Is what weneed." said board Secretary Peter Mar-tin. The Job of the town council and fi-nance board is to find the resources forthese needs. Then the school boardmust llve within those resources allot-ted to its budget, he said.

"l don't mean for one minute weshould lower our goals," said Kelsey."We have to open political channels

Board Chairwoman Cheryl Wascksaid she felt the board had made an ef-fort to open up communications withthe other town boards and the town'speople by offering open forums andworkshops.

But the effectiveness of the commu-nication depends on how receptive theaudience is to what the school board issaying. Waack sald.

Ordy 37 percent of the town's regis-tered voters cast ballots in the localelection this year, Waack said. "You caninform people, but if they're not goingto exercise the right to vote....You can'tspoon-feed people."

"If we stay away from emotional re-sponses and deal with it on a factualbasis, we will make more progress,"sald Forrest.

Martin suggested making more ofan effort to bring townspeople through

problems, but most people don't under-sland thls." he sald.

"l think we have to make people un-derstand what w•'re asking for andwhy we're asking for it," sald Johnson.

"There are a large number of peoplein town not in favor of making a flrmn-

ould get more politicalcial commitment to good education."said Edward Rosenblatt. "That decisionis based entirely on the pocketbook.They see it as an expense without di-rect compensation."

He called for "political activlsm" onthe part of all those who have made acommitment to quality education inSouthington's schools.

A grassroots approach will notbring about the changes that are de-sired in the school system, said Rosen-blatt, who had proclaimed education ashis primary concern during his cam-palgn for a Democratic seat on the fi-nance board in the recent election. Helost the race to incumbent Philip Pore-

There's a tug of war between a con-cern for the mill rate and a demand forservice, said Saloom. "The Board of Ed-ucation is trying to catch up on whatshould have been done at a regularrate."

"We have not asked for an extrapenny from the town in two years." Sa-loom said, whereas other boards askfor additional appropriations everymonth.

Some of the other residents whospoke pinpointed items of concern forthe next year's budget.

Joyce Kogut. although noting that

some progress has been made in li-brary media, asked that the board worktoward having a media center at eachof the 12 town schools. The expansionof school libr•xtes under the board's fa-cilities plan makes the position of me-dia coordinator essential, she said.

The safety of playground equipmentwas another matter of concern forKogut. It seems that no one has taken

"They topped the one they had a few years ago," Steele said of the drive.The timing couldn't be better, she said.

"We anticipate an increase (in those served) for November. Decemberand January. and aider the kids get out of school (for the year), we antici-pate another increase."

The dinners in the summer months are made possible largely throughthe food drive conducted by Crttikon Inc.

The Boys Sceuts are another group that has begun having an annualfood drive. Its goal in Southington is 4.500 items or about two and a halftons.

Aocording to Dennis Prefontaine of the Qulrmipiae Council of BoyScouts of America. this weekend participating scouts will distribute gro-cery bags to their neighbors, who will fill them with non-perishable foods.

The grocery bags will be collected the following week and taken to the

Southington Armory and ultimately the CormecUeut Food Bank in NewHaven. which will re-distribute them to food programs in the area.

Prefontaine said the scouts decided to have

a food drive to help the boys learn to confront aproblem such as hunger among the needy andto perform community service.

According Mary Jane Corn, director of theSouthington Food Bank, the town's residents

have responded to a problem her agency was

*The community has certainly rallied behind

our needs," said Corn, who noted that the f¢•;ibank's reserves w•re nearly depleted recently.

"We've been receiving food from some indi-viduals in the community and some of the

churches," she sald. In addition, cash dona-tions have been used to purchase food.

For reasons Corn can't explain, the foodbank assisted 56 people in August, 82 inSeptember and 102 last month. A total of 330bags of food were distributed during this perl-ed.

Corn said the majority of the people need-ing assistance belong to single-parent families.

The shelves of the food bank, located at theSouthlngton Vlsi•h-•g Nurses Association, 80Meriden Ave., should be re-stocked in the nexttwo months, which are typically the busiest.Two schools, Plantsvilie Elementary andKennedy Junior High will have completed theirdrives that will benefit the food bank.

"Last year we collected over 2,000 cans."said Joseph CasseIia, the student council advi-

sor at Kennedy. "Hopefully, this year we•I col-lect that much.
