The Robert H. Jackson Center in Jamestown has secured ownership rights to a documentary that celebrates the only Western New York native to serve as a United States Supreme Court justice and chief prosecutor of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg. "Liberty Under Law: The Robert H. Jackson Story" is a fi lm that chronicles the life of Justin Jackson, who also served as U.S attorney general and solicitor general. Made by Lisa and Rich Gensheimer of Main Street Media, the documentary was made possible thanks to grant funding received from the Johnson Foundation and the Ralph C. Sheldon Foundation. Jackson was born in Spring Creek, Pennsylvania and spent most of his childhood in Frewsburg, where he graduated from high school. He later spent additional time studying at Jamestown High School, taking courses which were not offered at Frewsburg High School. He ended up spending most of his adult life in Chautauqua County, including time spent working as an attorney and as an active member of Jamestown's Democratic Committee. After the election of Franklin Roosevelt, Jackson began advancing his career as an employee of the federal government. Through the generous support of the Johnson Foundation, the producers finished editing the fi lm, with the Jackson Center acquiring full ownership of the documentary late last CONTINUED ON PAGE 4

In addition to a 90 minute version of the fi lm, the Center will receive a 60 minute broadcast version, with the hopes that the documentary can eventually air on WNED-TV, Western New York's PBS affi liate. “The Johnson Foundation is pleased to support a fi lm about Robert H. Jackson, who spent half of his life living and working in Jamestown," said Johnson Foundation Co-Trustee John Sellstrom. "The documentary captures early 20th century Jamestown history and is a tribute to our great city.” It is believed that the fi lm will be utilized by some area teachers to teach middle school and high school students about Jackson's numerous achievements, including that he is the only person in history to have been solicitor general, attorney general and an associate justice of the U.S. Supreme Court. The documentary will also provide insight into Jackson's work serving as the chief prosecutor of Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg Trials. Jackson played an important role in many court decisions, including Brown vs. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas, which was instrumental in ending separate schools for whites and African Americans. A possible venue for future viewings of the documentary

is the Fredonia Opera House. According to representatives from the Robert H. Jackson Center, the documentary plays an important part of their strategic focus on the relevance of Justice Jackson’s work. The fi lm was screened Monday (May 4) night at the Robert H. Jackson Center to coincide with the anniversary of Justice Jackson’s appointment as chief prosecutor and helped to recognize their 18 month commemoration of the 70th anniversary of the Nuremberg Trial. Additional funding in support of the production, acquisition and marketing of the documentary was provided by Chautauqua County Planning and Economic Development, Chautauqua Region Community Foundation, Community Foundation of Warren County, Doug Manly, In Memory of Ann James Manly, Gebbie Foundation, Arnold P.

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, MAY 8, 2015

By Katy Wise Contributing Writer

Sunday, May 10 is Mother’s Day; the day where people all over America recognize the important and vital role that mothers play in every family. Although I personally believe that mothers and grandmothers deserve more appreciation than just one day per year, this annual celebration on the second Sunday in May is a great opportunity to thank your mom for always being there. Whether your mom is your biological mom, a grandmother, aunt or a dear mother-figure who has taken on the qualities and/ or responsibilities of a mom in your life, she deserves to know just how much you care this Mother’s Day. Husbands - don’t forget that the mother to your children needs to know that everything she does doesn’t go unnoticed, especially if your children aren’t old enough to express their thanks yet. Regardless of your personal budget, there are plenty of ways that you can celebrate mom this Mother’s Day. Here are a few ideas to get you started, but remember there’s only a few days left!

1. The classic breakfast in bed. While breakfast in bed is a great idea, remember to think outside the box. Consider taking mom to a restaurant or possibly picking up some of her favorite

Ways to celebrate mom donuts or muffins the night before. This means nobody has to do the dishes or clean the kitchen, which is always a win-win.

2. Take her out for lunch. Don’t forget this could also be for dinner, or both! One way to bless a mom is to take some of her responsibilities away, one of which is cooking. And just like the idea of taking her out for breakfast as previously mentioned, lunch or dinner out also mean no clean up afterwards.

3. Clean.

Offer to help clean the house for a day, maybe helping with a project that she hasn’t been able to accomplish on her own. Help her out by dusting or vacuuming or if you’re feeling extra ambitious, you might consider scrubbing the kitchen floor for her. If you’re not the best at cleaning, you could also arrange for someone to come clean for her or buy a gift certificate from a cleaning service.

4. Flowers.

This is a gift that you can never go wrong with. Some colorful flowers to dress up the dining room table are sure to make her day. Or maybe some perennials or a tree from a local greenhouse that can be planted to remind her of this Mother’s Day for years to come.

5. Her favorites.

Whether it’s her favorite flower, soap, candy, or per-

fume, the thought that you listened and took notice of what she likes the best will mean a lot to her.

6. Pampering.

Everyone could use some pampering once in awhile, especially the ones who are so good at pampering others. Manicures, pedicures, a massage or a haircut would make any woman feel appreciated and cared for.

7. Tell her ‘thank you.’

Although this one does not require any money, it is by far the most important. Whatever you do to celebrate the mom in your life on this Mother’s Day, make sure you tell her thank you for everything she has done. That is the reason for this very holiday, after all. Thank you for reading, and a very happy Mother’s Day

to all the fellow mommies out there! Whether this is your first Mother’s Day or your fiftieth, we hope that you have a blessed day to remember with your family, and thank you for being a Mom!

MOTHER'S DAY

Nature Center Wildﬂower Walk on Mother’s Day Contributed Article Audubon Center and Sanctuary

Continuing a decades-long tradition, on Sunday afternoon, May 10, naturalist Jack Gulvin will lead the Audubon Nature Center’s annual Mother’s Day Wildflower Walk at the Bentley Sanctuary. The walk starts at the Sanctuary and meanders through the woods in search of spring wildflowers. The hike features all the spring flowers, from Spring Beauties to Marsh Marigolds. The 2-4 p.m. Mother’s Day Wildflower Walk is an opportunity to take a couple hours to enjoy the breathtaking beauty of even the smallest and the most common wildflowers. You can learn which are native and which were brought here by Europeans eager to see a familiar sight from the home country. You will also learn about some that tagged along uninvited. Jack Gulvin is a naturalist at Chautauqua Institution, where he leads nature walks Friday mornings at 9 a.m. during the Chautauqua season. He also oversees the Purple Martin colonies, leading walks the first four Fridays of the season at 4:15 p.m. Anyone interested is invited to meet at 2 p.m. at the entrance to the Bentley Sanctuary. The Sanctuary is located at the end of Bentley Road, off Fluvanna Road to the right (if heading north), near the Fluvanna Community Church. Bring sturdy, mud-proof footwear and dress for the weather. With the wonderful background information Gulvin provides, a pencil and paper are often welcome accessories. Since it is also a great time for birds, consider bringing binoculars. The fee is $8 or $6 for Friends of the Nature Center. Reservations are not required. If you can’t make it on May 10, you can visit the Bentley Sanctuary on your own any time between dawn and dusk. To learn more, call (716) 569-2345 or visit www. jamestownaudubon.org. For decades the Audubon Nature Center has been offering a special treat on Mother’s Day: a guided tour of beautiful spring wildﬂowers at the Bentley Sanctuary. This Dutchman’s Breeches photographed by Nature Center Program Director Jennifer Schlick is one of the spring wildﬂowers that reward the observant trail walker.

Chelsea Cotter, Maria Sena, Andrew Becker, and Zachary Jackson

Contributed Article JCC

Four Jamestown Community College biotechnology students participated in the inaugural State University of New York Undergraduate Research Conference at SUNY Brockport in early April. Presentations, poster sessions, and creative performances by 550 students representing 35 SUNY schools were featured. JCC was represented by Maria Sena (“Meprin Alpha Mediates CCL2 Activity in Murine Bone Marrow Cells Using a Model of Chemotherapy”), Andrew Becker (“A Survey of Mosquito Populations for Evidence of Lateral Gene Transfer”), and Chelsea Cotter and Zachary Jackson (“Analysis of Borrelia in Lipotena cervi (Deer Keds) as a Model of Infection in the White Tailed Deer Population of New York State”). A field of interest grant from the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation helped enable the JCC students’ participation. Several workshops, including those focusing on student transitions from community college to four-year institutions and from four-year institutions to graduate school, were offered to conference participants. George D. Kuh, a renowned higher education innovator in the field of undergraduate research, was the keynote speaker.

Fredonia Rodgers and Hammerstein classic ‘South Paciﬁc’ closes pops series Contributed Article Fredonia A concert version of one of the most popular works in the canon of Rodgers and Hammerstein will be presented as the 2015 commencement eve pops concert at the State University of New York at Fredonia. “South Pacific in Concert” concludes the DFT Communications Pops Series on Friday, May 15 at 7:30 p.m. in King Concert Hall at Rockefeller Arts Center. Set in an island paradise during World War II, “South Pacific” follows two parallel love stories that are threatened by the dangers of prejudice and war. Musical highlights include “Some Enchanted Evening,” “I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair” and “Younger Than Springtime.” Rockefeller Arts Center Director Jefferson Westwood serves as producer and artistic director for the annual commencement eve pops concert. The musical director is Glen Cortese, conductor and artistic director of the Western New York Chamber Orchestra, and the stage director is Tom Loughlin, chairman of the Department of Theatre and Dance. “Glen is a great musician and conductor. He understands the material very well,” Westwood said. “Tom is a very versatile director. He’s at home in everything from contemporary world premiere dramas to Shakespeare

to musical comedy.” As for “South Pacific,” Westwood said it is “second only to the ‘Sound of Music’” when it comes to popular Rodgers and Hammerstein works. He noted there is good reason for this. “These days, it seems so many American musicals rely on special effects and all kinds of stage magic,” Westwood said. “‘South Pacific’ relies on wonderful music, a great story line, memorable characters and fabulous orchestration. It doesn’t need bells and whistles.” While almost 70 years have past since “South Pacific” was written, its subject matter is still timely today. “This particular work makes a strong statement on race relations and prejudice that is still relevant today,” Westwood said of the love stories at the center of “South Pacific.” The pops production is based on the 2006 concert version that starred Alec Baldwin, Reba McEntire and Billy Stokes Mitche “We have a terrific cast,” Westwood said. “South Pacific in Concert” is sponsored by DFT Communications and the Fredonia Penny Saver as part of the 2014-15 Lake Shore Savings Season. Tickets are available through the Campus Ticket Office in the Williams Center, by phone at 6733501 and online at fredonia.edu/ tickets.

By Tonja Dodd Contributing Writer

I have reported on four principles that will help you stay active: do it for you; make it enjoyable; make exercise convenient and listen to the science. There is a fifth principle: get support. Get support from social networks and tracking tools. Having support from the people around you will make it easier for you to stick to your active lifestyle. Oth-

ment. Step one cannot be completed without the acceptance of accountability. Automatically you’re asked to take control of your life, and move the responsibility of goal acquisition off external stimuli, effectively placing it on yourself. No longer can you think “if it’s supposed to happen it will”. You will now need to utilize the Power within and CREATE change. Thankfully, this power can be accessed at our disposal, and is able to do things above and beyond our human understanding. It has authority over all, and

is Greater than all. Therefore, when led you must EXERCISE YOUR POWER, have faith, and ACT. Fear and procrastination cannot be allowed to get a grip. Always remember, external stimuli can’t quell the power of your action. Thoughts can’t subdue the faith you have. And the words of others can’t stop the movement action creates. Step two is the best part; walk in joy. EVERY. SINGLE. MOMENT. Act as if you’ve already tangibly received that which you’re believing for. And show happiness to

the world. Realize joy is more of an action than a feeling…Take time to let that statement sink in, and use it. How do we apply these steps to fitness? Well, if you’re anything like the average American, and not satisfied with your current level of health, we can go through the steps. Instead of wishing 20 pounds off, realize you must take action. Now, you choose where to start... But if you’re stuck, here is my suggestion: Go for a walk. That’s an action. A simple one. It starts the cycle,

gets you over the hump, and moves you toward your goal. Remember, no matter how slow you go you’re lapping those on the couch… Want to take it one step further and truly activate your fitness? Then show JOY during your walk. It doesn’t matter how you feel, joy is an ACTION. Show it because you’ve started the process, meaning you’re one step closer to the finish line. And most importantly, show it for the moment, because THIS moment is special. THIS moment was created for a reason. It’s the only one in which you can live. Make it a BLESSING.

Physical Activity & Fitness Guidelines ers can offer support by simply being “ok” with you taking 30 – 60 minutes several times a week to exercise. Set up a schedule so you and your spouse alternate days to cook dinner which allows designated days to exercise after work. Or alternate mornings and take a walk/go to a Yoga while your spouse gets the kids off to school and vis versa. Ask your significant other, neighbor or friend to take a walk with you after dinner every night. Join a club, the local Y, senior center, golf league or swim group. Having someone to back you up when other life issues crop up, helps you keep your exercise

“appointments”. Others can also help you from slipping – a walking buddy keeps you accountable – if you have a bad day and don’t feel like taking the evening walk, you will still go because you don’t want to let your friend down. Don’t have anyone in your life to count on? Take an activity you enjoy as an opportunity to make a new friend. If you play tennis, join a tennis club, check out meet-up groups online, or post a notice at your local recreation center stating you are looking for a partner and you may find a new friend who shares your interest! There are also communities online that offer a forum to discuss

tennis, for instance. You will find you can get moral support and ask peers and experts very specific questions. Also, find support through tracking tools. Tracking tools track your progress and give you feedback. Tracking helps set concrete goals and recognize patterns and successes. So, what should you track? Your vision – where do you want to be in 1 week, 1, 3 and 6 months? What are your specific goals – will you walk Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday for 20 minutes this week? Track your daily activity including how intense (what was your heart rate, what pace did you go, how hard did it feel using a 1 – 10

effort scale). And how many minutes was each bout of activity – did you walk for 15 minutes twice or 40 minutes once today? Last, how did you feel during the session(s)? Tracking progress does several things – it reinforces your commitment to being active. We sign papers when we purchase a car, home, get a job, get married – so, sign up, write it down and commit to exercise! Track the old-fashioned way and use a paper and pen log (which by the way some expert say logging this way is more effective than typing). Find a fitness app or website on your smartphone, tablet or com-

puter that will fit into your life to support your effort. These resources all have trackers and online communities. Explore options like LiveStrong, Runkeeper and MyFitness Pal. Use a device like a pedometer, fitness watch or other wearable - they often come with software or link to an app – devices like the FitBit, Jawbone or Nike gear are some examples. Health insurance and employersponsored wellness programs likely have a fitness program, website or app with a tracker and online community built-in - inquire with your insurance or workplace human resources office.

Spearheaded by lead sponsor TruckLite and major sponsors Cummins, United Refining Company, The Bilicki Law Firm and Alstar EMS, along with associate sponsors, Veracity Benefits and Jamestown Savings Bank, LINKS Charity also announced that it is once again taking a leadership role in the local fight against breast cancer by making a new four-year, $400,000 pledge toward the purchase of the Discovery 630 System. This cuttingedge nuclear medical technologywhich boasts lower radiation, better image resolution, and shorter exam times-will aid in an earlier and more accurate diagnosis. The Discovery 630 system will compliment the Digital Mammography which is now operational in the Center for Imaging & Medical Arts at WCA. In total, LINKS Charity has now raised $1,184,000 toward enhancing local cancer care efforts. “We believe that the Discovery 630 System will work in conjunction with the new Digital Mammography suite at WCA, by boasting lower radiation, increasing image resolution and aiding in earlier and more accurate diagnosis. ” says Brad Van Riper, Senior Vice President for Truck-Lite and Executive Director for LINKS Charity. “The $400,000 pledge is an aggressive goal, but we are confident that the community will support this effort to more effectively diagnose breast cancer.”

“Once again, LINKS Charity is proving its extraordinary commitment to local cancer care,” said Betsy T. Wright, President/CEO of WCA Hospital. “We are so thankful that through the hard work and generosity of many that the Center for Imaging & Medical Arts at WCA will stay on the cutting edge of technology which will benefit everyone.” LINKS Charity, established in 1991, was co-founded by Mary Blair and Sondra Anderson. Their commitment and passion along with many benevolent volunteers, including Allen Short, Executive Director for the first nineteen years, has been remarkable. LINKS Charity continues in its mission to link the community, business, and industry together to enhance local cancer care at WCA Hospital. LINKS Charity is spearheaded by lead sponsor TruckLite and major sponsors Cummins, United Refining Company, The Bilicki Law Firm and Alstar EMS, along with associate sponsors, Veracity Benefits and Jamestown Savings Bank. WCA Hospital’s Cancer Care Program, the only program in the region recognized for cancer care excellence by the American College of Surgeons (ACoS) Commission on Cancer (CoC), is staffed by a team of expert physicians and health care professionals under the medical direction of a board-certified radiation oncologist. The program provides a wide range of cancer care services from routine screenings to the diagnosis and treatment of patients diagnosed with cancer.

That being said, there are plenty of foods that you may be adding sugar to that are already sugary on their own -- from cereal to fresh fruit.

The post office, which long held the name of Vermont, was changed to Gerry about 1876, and the station on the Dunkirk, Allegheny Valley & Pittsburgh railroad was changed from Vermont to Gerry as late as 1881.

JAMESTOWN’S CARLSON TO PLAY FOOTBALL, STUDY AT PRINCETON

By Erik Tingue

Star Contributing Writer

Jamestown’s two-time First-Team All-State member and the Connolly Cup winner of the 2014 football season, Stephen Carlson. has decided to sign with the Princeton Tigers and will be playing football for them in the Fall of 2015 and studying bio-engineering as well. “It’s definitely really exciting playing at a top university for academics and I’m definitely thinking about it a lot,” Carlson said. “But right now, I’m living in the moment and when summer time comes, then I’ll really start focusing on Princeton and what I have to offer.” Carlson not only applies himself on the football field, but he also applies himself in the classroom and he believes his mother has influenced him in becoming the man he is today. “My mom is definitely my role model,” he said. “She never complains about anything and I can really find strength in the stuff that she does because she’s just always smiling and she makes me realize how easy life can be.” To go along with his great success in school and football, Carlson does his best to give back to the community by volunteering as much as he can. For example, he has volunteered at WCA and he’s a religious education instructor. Head coach of the Jamestown football team, Tom Langworthy, is another person who has also had a big influence on Carlson’s achievements including the decision to sign with Princeton. “He’s one of the greatest guys I have ever met,” Carlson said of his high school coach. “He’s just an all-around, family-oriented, good-valued person who knows where his priorities should be. He’s very passionate about what he does, which makes him a great coach. “On my first visit to Princeton, I got a chance to see how beautiful the campus was and how prestigious the classes were and how careful every student and kid was there,” Carlson added. “It’s a top school in the country and I just couldn’t say no." Carlson will be studying bioengineering and knows he’s going to have to study hard with such a tough major in addition to playing collegiate sports at such a competitive

school. “I’m ready to really buckle down and start working,” he admitted. “This opportunity is going to be setting up the rest of my life. I’m going to take advantage of what I’m being offered. What motivates me is thinking about the future. I like having a vision of what kind of man I want to be when I’m older and how I want to be living. While most in Chautauqua County know Carlson for being a superb athlete, what many people don’t about Carlson is that religion plays a huge role in his life and many of the lessons he learns are from what he reads in the Bible. “Religion is probably the biggest aspect in my life,” CONTINUED ON PG 31

IRRELEVANT NBA TEAMS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 26 I was driving with a friend the other day when talk of Phillip Rivers getting traded to the Tennessee Titans came up on sports radio. That got us thinking: Which team is the most irrelevant in each of the four major sports? The Titans have to have a good claim, no? There are theoretically worse teams, but is there a team that matters less to the casual NFL fan? I joked at the time that the topic would make a good commentary, but the more I thought about it, it really would. So let’s take a look at the candidates for each of the four major professional (North American) sports and I’ll give you my picks at the end. This isn’t all about wins and losses. In fact, I hope winning percentage is a minor detail. Star power, market size, history — these are the things that matter. The candidates: NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION Minnesota Timberwolves: The T’Wolves had a brief era of relevancy with the first go-around of Kevin Garnett. Actually, while I’m on the topic, can we take a second to appreciate just how awesome KG was in his prime? Dear heavens that guy was dynamic on both ends of the floor. In this age, though, you’d be hardpressed to find anyone that even knows Minnesota has a professional basketball team. They were 29th (secondto-last) in attendance this past year, down from 27th in 2013-2014. They have a potential star in Andrew Wiggins, but time will tell if even his immense skills can bring the Wolves back from the brink of total irrelevan-

heavens. And that’s playing in an Eastern Conference with some historically beatable teams like Philadelphia and the legendary 7-59 Charlotte Bobcats (though admittedly the Magic made the playoffs that year). Still, it can safely be said that it’s not longer “cool” to be a Magic fan…or even know that the Magic still exist. Memphis Grizzlies: Wait, you mean the Grizzlies aren’t in Vancouver anymore? Who knew? But seriously, the Grizzlies are the perfect example that win-loss record isn’t the be-all, end-all of these irrelevant teams because this is a franchise that has actually been quite successAn NBA game between the Orlando Magic and the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Last week I wrote about hitting the ball really well off the tee, but the rest of my game suffered. *Editor’s Note: The Golfer’s Diary was started three This time out, it was nearly the polar opposite.

I hit a beautiful (truly, it was aweGolfer’s Diary is one of my weekly contributions some) 7-iron off the tee and landed pin-height to the Chautauqua Star.

T t s -

see Arnie (Ryan’s incredibly friendly dog). Nick works overnights, so he went home to get some sleep, but Bryan and i headed to No. 10, where both of our drives were hilariously bad. We decided we probably deserve a we-just-hada-beer-and-sat-down-for-15-minutes mulligan. I think that’s in the rule book, actually. Our second drives were much better and our scores were much better than the fi rst time through. Actually, the back nine started really t well for me. It wasn’t anything earth-shattering, A T but bogey, bogey, bogey, par, bogey is a solid i stretch for me. It basically shows that I’m not 2 messing up too terribly on any aspect of the game. I’m simply not skilled enough to drop a L 170-yard shot onto the green most of the time, s T so greens in regulation isn’t really a thing for me. I still feel like a relatively new golfer, so I’m m i okay with that. But after being only 4-over par after five holes, T I royally messed up No. 15. From 573 yards out, d there’s not a ton of room for error. You’ve gotta o hit some nice shots to get to the green with any p chance of scoring well. Well, my drive was ter- h rible and my second shot was popped way up in a the air and didn’t get any distance. So I was in t extremely rough shape after two shots. My third shot was dynamite, but it was too little, too late. I snowmanned it. I think snowman is a verb. C Either way, golfers know what I’m talking about. A bogey on No. 16 was fi ne as I wasn’t in great shape after a pulled drive. But then Bryan admitted that his ankle was really bothering him, so we quit after 16 holes. I bogeyed five of the seven holes on the back nine with one par, but that one triple-bogey really messed up what could have been a good nine holes. But seeing as how we were quitting, maybe it was for the best. I don’t have to worry about what could have been. As soon as we sat down in the car my calves felt like they were lit on fi re. Walking 16 holes is a lot, but exercise is one of the main reasons why I play golf. I certainly don’t judge people that take carts, but maybe try walking nine the next time you play. See if you play any better or worse. See how you feel afterwards. I’d love to hear some of the results. Golf is great. Go get some.

IRRELEVANT NBA TEAMS, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 27 transplants from around the country, so even in Arizona, they probably aren’t terribly popular. That’s especially true when the team isn’t making the playoffs, which it hasn’t since way back in 2009-2010. They’re stuck in a division with both Los Angeles teams and Golden State, which assures of a tough trip to the playoffs every season. The drafting has been bad, the roster management has been bad and as a result, the team is irrelevant. Toronto Raptors: As the only team in Canada, the Raptors should have an entire country of fan support. The problem is that they don’t play hockey. The Raptors are actually fi fth in home attendance, proving that people in Toronto actually care. Or at least some of them do. We’re talking about the largest city in Canada, so it’s

hard to say. Professional sports simply do well in attendance in Toronto. But when you look at road attendance, the Raptors fall all the way to 25th. That’s an enormous drop-off. And that’s not an insignificant stat. It shows that fans of other teams have no interest in seeing the Raptors when they come to town. The Vince Carter era was fun and the team made the playoffs this past season, but playing in the East almost assures any even mediocre team a playoff bid. Utah Jazz: I’m going to use the same argument for the Jazz as I did for the Raptors — road attendance. The Jazz were a more-than respectable 10th in home attendance, actually beating out the Lakers. But Utah dropped to dead last in road attendance. Dead. Last. Long gone is the Stockton-Malone Era that made the Jazz a must-

It helps me see a bigger picture and that everything is not all about me. Life is more about helping other people out than trying to get what you want” said Carlson. Despite nearly unprecedented success, Carlson is a very humble and respectful young man with nothing but good intentions on his mind. Overall, Carlson has already accomplished so much at the age of 18 and is on his way to doing big things at the University of Princeton with support from his friends, family, and the city of Jamestown.

see team. They’ve been a team with veteran, replacement-level players and failed draft picks for many years and there’s just no way that I could listen to an argument that the Jazz matter to anyone but Utah fans. I truly thought that the NBA version of this was going to be the most difficult of the four sports, but it turned out to be the easiest so far. I probably could have kept going with teams like the Charlotte Hornets, New Orleans Pelicans, Philadelphia 76ers, Detroit Pistons, Denver Nuggets and even the Atlanta Hawks. The NBA is really the college sports-iest of professional sports. There are only a handful of teams that matter. That’s not a compliment, in case you’re reading this, NBA.

The women's track and field team finished in sixth place with 100 team points. "The women's conference right now is extremely competivie, but we had some great performances topped off with the 4x4," head coach Tom Wilson said. "That's the first relay conference victory in school history for the women, which is amazing. They really leaned on each other to get the job done today."

present. Anglers have reported good early season perch action, including some limit catches. There have even been some walleye catches mixed in. Depths around 50 feet between Cattaraugus Creek and Sturgeon Point are good starting points. Live emerald shiners fi shed near the bottom works well for perch. With cold water temperatures in the low 40s, walleye season could be off to a slow start. Trollers usually hit the nearshore spawning shoals/shallows when the season opens. Shorehaven Reef, Bournes Beach, Green Hills, Van Buren Bay, Evans Bar, off Hamburg and near the mouth of Smokes Creek. The typical program involves trolling in 6-15 feet of water with shallow diving stickbaits or worm harnesses over rocky areas. If the shoal bite is slow, trolling or bottom bouncing in deeper areas off the spawning shoals is worth a shot. The harbors are good spots for smallmouth bass when the special season opens on Saturday. These areas warm quicker than the open lake, drawing in smallmouth bass. Anglers at Buffalo Small Boat Harbor have seen decent yellow perch and crappie at times. Perch and sunfi sh can also be found in other sheltered areas with weeds around the greater Buffalo Harbor. Lake Erie Tributaries Cattaraugus Creek is currently in the best shape its been all spring. The smaller streams have moderate to low and clear flows. There are still decent numbers of steelhead in the creeks, consisting mostly of drop-backs. Smallmouth bass are moving into the lower ends of the tributaries and action has been excellent at times. Woolly buggers and minnow imitation patterns are good bass offerings for fly anglers, and spinning anglers generally do well with stickbaits and natural baits like minnows, crayfi sh and worms.

Upper Niagara River Lake Erie ice is gone and the ice boom has been removed. With warming river temperatures, look for the yellow perch and sunfi sh bite to pick up at harbor, bay and inlet sites. Small minnows, worms or grubs are good baits. Also look for crappie schooling in the backwater areas of Tonawanda Creek, between the confluence with the Erie Canal and the Niagara River. Anglers usually catch some rainbow trout at this time of year from the Bird Island Pier and Broderick Park. Target trout by drifting egg sacs and minnows, or by casting spoons and spinners. Chautauqua Lake Walleye season opens on Saturday, May 2nd. Targeting walleye along shallower shoreline areas at night is a good early season tactic. Boaters can slow troll with stickbaits and worm harnesses, or drift and work jigs with nightcrawlers or leeches. Shore anglers can connect by casting stickbaits, especially in areas near stream inlets. Anglers were recently seeing good crappie catches at times in the canals and at open lake sites, as well as plenty of perch and bluegill in the same areas. On the open lake, target crappie in 6-10 feet of water in the sheltered bays and around structure. Recent crappie catches have been reported at Lakewood Bar, Rock and Grass Islands, Ashville Bay, Burtis Bay and off Mayville. Catches are best from before dusk through dawn. Small jigs (1/32 and 1/64 ounce) with a small minnow, one inch tube or other small plastic and fi shed under a pencil float works well. A small minnow on a bare hook is another simple, but effective method for crappie.
