7534 ROUTE 380, STOCKTON, NY

2013 season: June 22- august 25

By Patricia Pihl Managing Editor

Welcoming visitor and resident alike, the Chautauqua Institution kicks off its 2013 season with week one theme “Our Elegant Universe” and closes the season with the topic “Health Care: Reform and Innovation.”

Also planned is a multi-year in-depth look at topics such as health care and for the first time an inter-arts collaboration on what is called the “Romeo and Juliet Project,” which brings Chautauqua’s arts programs together.

With the incentives of free Sundays, the family entertainment series and community apprecia-

tion nights, Institution officials also encourage Chautauqua county residents to come to the grounds, whether for a day, lecture or a night of favorite entertainment.

25 million miles in orbit Kicking off week one is the theme “Our Elegant Universe,” which features an Amphitheater talk by Story Musgave, entitled “25 Million Miles in Orbit.”

Musgrave is an astronaut that has logged the most miles in space and is described as one of NASA’s “most colorful, dedicated and passionate astronauts.” Calling the week, “very interactive” George Murphy, Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, says there will also be a space exhibit, and participants are invited

to dress as astronauts.

Planned for Community Appreciation night on July 26, Murphy says that the fi lm ET, the Extra-terrestrial will be shown on a large screen in Bestor Plaza.

“You can hear the astronaut (Musgave) talk about space; take in the exhibit at Bestor Plaza and then bring your chair or blanket and watch ET - it should be a nice kick-off to the season.”

Romeo and Juliet Project A must-see event takes place on July 27, called “The Romeo and Juliet Project.” Murphy says the event is unique in that it is a collaboration of Chautauqua’s theatre, opera, dance, voice and symphony departments – all on stage at the same time to tell the

States Murphy, “It’s classically Shakespeare, but also the base for Westside Story.”

“We think it’s a first …the collaboration of all the art forms is “ just something you don’t see.”

Murphy adds, “If you were to come for any one event, this is going to be the most exciting.”

“… And that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from this earth.”

-Abraham Lincoln In light of recent scandals in many arenas of the federal government, there has been much commentary on radio, TV, internet and nearly every other media outlet available. Opinions like, ‘this is proof that the government is too big,’ or ‘we need a big government because we can’t govern ourselves.’

Personally, I’m of the former as far as opinions go. But I wasn’t really sure how to put words on it until recently. I was listening to the news on the radio, and the reporter said (and I don’t know if he was quoting someone or not) that these employees of government organizations had forgotten that they are in fact public service workers. Their positions exist because the people caused it to be so. They, as government, are there to serve the people, not be people to serve them as overlords.

What a revelation. I think the ultimate problem, though, runs much deeper than just in government. There is a general mentality that has crept through ‘the American dream’ that lines up with this. The ‘Dream,’ in its unadulterated state, is wonderful.

Work hard, and you’ll be rewarded for it.

Unfortunately, over the years, this dream has become tarnished by organizations that have come into existence to ‘help’ the people achieve it. Now, rather than work hard, the ultimate mentality has become ‘who can I step on to make my dream come true,’ and ‘how can I work less to get the same reward?’

Both of these ways of thinking are leading this great nation down a dark path. Almost as a

CoMMentarY, Continued froM pg 1 The government is picking up the mentality of what many Americans think about their work places today. ‘I do not exist for my employer, my employer exists for me.’ Oh, what a wholly selfish way of thinking.

Serve your spouse and your children. Serve your parents. The result will show up quickly as teamwork and mutual respect grow exponentially.

Maybe you like having a government that continues to grow more powerful, and more corrupt. But, as history has proven time and time again, there will come a day where that government stops existing for the people and starts lording over the people.

Let’s do what we can now to keep that from happening.

vations were created to protect the creek’s natural resources. A 33-acre Canadaway Creek Preserve located at the mouth of the stream is positioned on a major flyway.

During the fall and spring migration, the sanctuary protects around 140 species of birds. The second preserve is the Canadaway Creek Wildlife Management Area, which is located on a 2,180-acre tract of land that protects the headwaters. Its dense hardwood forest provides the nesting areas for a large variety of birds including the yellow-bellied sapsucker and great blue heron. The history of the introduction of steelhead to Lake Erie is complicated. The fisheries in Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York have, over the past hundred years, stocked many different strains and each strain has their own distinctive physical characteristics and spawning habits. Although all strains originally came from a few rivers in the Northwest, some of these strains have been manipulated over the years in hatcheries to assure the best returns from the Great Lakes. Canadaway Creek has become a beautiful little gem in the Western New York area.

We would like to preserve it beauty for future generations.

The Sportfishing and Aquatic Resource Educational Programming (SAREP) Youth Fly Fishing Program will be organizing the Canadaway Creek Conservation Project on Saturday, June 18 from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the gazebo behind the Fire Hall on Main Street in Fredonia. The project will entail educational presentations, a stream clean-up and dogwood tree planting program to stabilization the stream’s banks. Free lunch, caps and t-shirts will be provided to all participants.

S.A.R.E.P. Youth Fly Fishing Program is an not-forprofit volunteer educational program that provides children and community members with free information and experiences related to aquatic resources, conservation, ethics, and fly fishing. The ethics of the program promotes “catch and release” as well as respect for fellow fisherman and the land on which one fishes. It is the goal of the program to protect the local species and the land for future generations.

Our program closely ties together the importance of understanding nature with the rewarding act of

The History of Canadaway Creek The stream was originally settled by the Erie tribes and later by the Iroquois who called the stream “Ga-na-da-wa-o,” meaning “running through hemlocks.” The early European settlers from Eastern and Central Pennsylvania ended up pronouncing the name as “Canadaway.”

The Native American name probably referred to the dense canopy that still covers the deep gorge at its headwaters. Early surveyors named the creek “Cascade” after the scenic falls that are located in the town of Arkwright. The first non-native settlement along its banks occurred on 1804 and was called Canadaway, this settlement later became the village of Fredonia.

The mouth of Canadaway hosted the first naval battle in the War of 1812 where an American military company held off a British gunboat as it tried to seize a salt boat from Buffalo that had sought sanctuary in the creek. As the area became populated and settlements prospered along the stream, two preser-

YMCA Slates Family Swim to Celebrate Father’s Day The Jamestown YMCA, 101 East Fourth Street, will offer a complimentary open swim to all fathers and their families Saturday, June 15 from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. This free event, which is open to the public, is being held the day before Father’s Day since the YMCA is closed on Sundays during the summer months.

More than a century ago, Sonora Louis Smart Dodd

aspired to create a holiday to honor fathers. Dodd, the daughter of a single father and Civil War veteran, was inspired by a Mother’s Day sermon and wondered why there was no holiday for fathers. After securing support from ministers in Spokane, Wash., her idea came to fruition with the first Father’s Day celebration at the Spokane YMCA on June 19, 1910.

The Jamestown Area YMCA the joins the nation in celebrating Father’s Day and recognizing the impact fathers and adult male role models make in children’s lives. Nationally, one out of three children lives in a home without their biological father, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. And, societal factors such as unemployment, work-life balance or a lack of resources

can affect fathers’ ability to seek support in strengthening their parenting skills and more fully engaging in the lives of their children.

The Y remains dedicated to providing resources and opportunities for fathers to further involve themselves in the well-being and development of their children.

“One way to improve child well-being is to increase the proportion of children

growing up with involved, responsible, and committed fathers and adult male role models,” said Mark Eckendorf, CEO, Jamestown Area YMCA. “Father’s Day reminds us why it’s important to provide fathers with the support they need to be the best parents and caregivers they can be.”

Studies show that children with close relationships with their fathers and other

adult male role models have more self-confidence and exhibit less depression, perform better academically and engage in significantly less drug and alcohol use.

WOMEN’S SECTION What’s Next?

Honoring the Invisible Man

By Dodi Kingsfield Contributing Writer

In the spring of May, we honor the women that birth us, but we reserve the warmer month of June to honor the men that serve as fathers to ourselves or our children. A father is not necessarily the man that biologically creates a child, he is the man that raises the child as one of his very own. As parents, the father is traditionally dominant, takes charge, works outside the home, makes tough decisions and doles out the punishments.

He supports his partner in family decision making, household responsibilities and problem solving. He helps the children with

sports, homework and job prospects. He lends a shoulder to cry on, provides financial support and gives out the keys to his car when asked. He provides the masculine perspective to the team as they raise the children together.

A traditional family household consists of a mother, father and one or more children. In today’s world, families are blended into a mishmash of steps and half’s, singles and doubles, gay and straight, parttime and full-time. There are yours, mine, ours and someone else’s. There are endless options that make up a family unit, which can make the celebration of modern Father’s Day a challenge.

For fathers that take an active role in their children’s lives, honoring Father’s Day can be relatively simple. Moms may or may not be involved, depending on the relationship they have with the father of their children. For other women, the father of their child may be deceased, so

his memory can be honored in place of celebrating his physical presence. Then there are those women that for one reason or another have no involvement with the father of her children or the father has no involvement with them. He is the invisible man. Without him, the child would obviously not exist physically, but that may be where his contribution to their livelihood ended.

When an absentee or invisible father is involved, Father’s Day can be acknowledged in one of several ways. One way is to not acknowledge the day at all. But many children without their biological father in their lives may have a father figure that takes their place. It can be a brother, uncle, grandfather or special family friend.

Father’s Day is the perfect day to thank this special individual for the fatherly position they take and how much it is appreciated by mom and her children.

When a role model father figure is in the picture, the

absence of a physical father has much less impact to the child and their family.

Another way that invisible man households can celebrate Father’s Day is to honor the parent that fills the shoes of a father.

In a single parent family, mom and dad are one and the same and playing both roles is not an easy task.

In dual parent households, one partner may naturally take on a fatherly or masculine role while the other is more feminine.

Honoring these women on Father’s Day not only removes the stereotype of what a typical father is, but it recognizes the hard work and contribution of parents in general.

Whichever household your family falls into, having an invisible man for a father does not mean that a family is fatherless. Thank the father figure of your family this Sunday, regardless of who he or she may be.

Happy Father’s Day, ladies. Women often play the role of mother and father in today’s modern families.

Happy Father’s Day.

Germaine, a retired accountant, passed away in April of this year, but he left behind more than an empty seat at Ryder’s Cup. “This was his home away from home,” said Cheryl Germaine, Wayne’s wife.

RELIGION SECTION the Weekly Word

Rev. Tim Stahlman Family Church Jamestown thenewfamilychurch.com

The Prince of All Peace When the serpent entered the Garden of Eden, his purpose was to destroy the peace that mankind had with God. When Adam and Eve ate the fruit they made the devil their lord. Sin came upon humanity and they were born again with the nature of their father, the devil. Man became an enemy of God, and as soon as the peace between God and man was dissolved, mankind became subject to sin, fear, worry, anxiety, poverty, hate, and sickness. While man was at peace with God, none of things could dominate him.

The serpent came to steal man’s peace and every blessing associated with it.

This is why the Gospel is called the good news! Mankind doesn’t have to remain at enmity with God. Jesus Christ came to work a

peace accord and create a loving truce between God and man.

Colossians 1:20 says, “And having made peace through the blood of His cross, by him ( Jesus) to reconcile all things unto Himself (God)...” When Jesus shed His blood upon that cross, He was making a peace offering to God on our behalf. God accepted that offering and has boldly declared that all things with humanity are reconciled back to Him in a perfect state of peace for those that believe upon Christ. God is simply saying, “By faith, man can be at peace with God again, and the benefits of peace are available to mankind.” Peace is more than possible; it is imminent for the one who will walk with God and keep His Word in their heart and mouth. Not a political peace, but a deep spiritual peace that will

forever change the landscape of your entire life.

Peace is God’s Name. One of the Old Testament Jewish names of God is “Jehovah Shalom”, which means, “The Lord our complete peace.” The word peace is defi ned as “nothing broken and nothing missing.” That’s who God is for us! He is our Lord of nothing broken and nothing missing. He is God our completeness.

He is God our wholeness of spirit, soul, and body. Jesus rescued that peace that was lost in the Garden of Eden. He has brought us back into peaceful fellowship with God. That is where your spirit will be made whole, that is where you soul will be refreshed, and that is where your body will be healed: In fellowship with God. Isaiah 9:6 says, “For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is giv-

en: and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, THE PRINCE OF PEACE.” Jesus is called, “The Prince of Peace.” This term denotes that He is the true source of every form of peace. His peace transcends all realms; spiritual and physical. Proverbs 14:30 says, “The heart at peace gives life to the body.”(NIV) If Christ is the Prince of Peace, He must also be our Healer because the Bible says that physical health is the result of peace in our hearts. Many church groups believe that Jesus only heals our spirit and not our body. Never again would they say that if they understood the depth of His peace. It permeates spirit, soul, and body!

tips to avoid new Scams targeting Seniors

StatePoint

While we are all taught to use good manners when answering the telephone, not everyone who calls you necessarily has good intentions.

According to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, a recent spate of lottery scams or advance

is crucial. Protect yourself by taking the following precautions: • Never pay money to collect supposed sweepstakes winnings. Legitimate operations won’t require you to pay to collect winnings.

It’s against U.S. law to play foreign lotteries. If you get a call saying you’ve won one, it’s probably a scam. fee frauds originating in Ja- • Never wire money to anymaica are targeting seniors one you don’t know. and other Americans by • Ignore unsolicited calls telephone. from anyone, even charities and companies with whom While the Jamaican and you already do business.

Knowing the difference • Place your telephone between legitimate telenumber on the National marketers and scammers

Do Not Call Registry. It’s fast and free. Visit www.

DoNotCall.gov or add your number to the registry by calling 888-382-1222 from the phone you wish to register.

• Check unfamiliar area codes before returning calls. Be aware that there are many three digit area codes that connect callers to international telephone numbers.

• If you don’t make international calls, ask your telephone provider to block incoming and outgoing international calls.

• Never provide anyone with personal information, such as bank accounts, pin numbers or Social Security numbers.

• Prevent criminals from

accessing your money.

Contact your bank, brokerages, as well as the Social Security Administration to add a password to your accounts.

• If callers insist on speaking with you, tell them you’ll call them directly.

Don’t take a number offered by a potential fraudster. You’re safer looking up the number independently.

• Scammers often create false deadlines. If you feel pressured, hang up. You’ve spent a lifetime earning your money. You deserve time to choose how to spend it.• Help others from falling victim to scammers by warning friends and family. If you’ve received a call, mail or email you think might be from a scammer, report it to the

Federal Trade Commission by calling at 877-FTCHELP (877-382-4357) or contact local authorities.

“The Jamaican Government is resolved to successfully combat this scourge.

We have put in place both legislative and operational measures that will ensure that persons who prey on vulnerable seniors are held accountable,” said. Jamaica’s Minister of National Security, Peter Bunting, who is working with U.S. officials to stop new Jamaican lottery scams.

You don’t have to live in fear to avoid being a victim. By becoming informed of the latest tactics used by scammers to defraud consumers, you can protect yourself and your finances.

new technology Helps Boomers and Seniors Have Fun and Stay in touch

StatePoint

Whether you’re a technophobe who is reluctant to make new purchases, or you warmly embrace every

trend, you may be excited to hear about user-friendly innovations, such as touch screen computers, that can make life easier and more fun: • Show and tell: Miss your

grandkids? New desktop computers, laptops and two-in-one detachable PCs like the HP SlateBook x2 make it possible to communicate face-to-face without the need for travel.

Use a Skype account and a built-in webcam to video chat with loved ones and friends. Set up afternoon appointments with your grandkids where they can share the big news of the school day with you in real time or read them a bedtime story from hundreds of miles away.

• Dig up the past: Get the family together to take a quick trip back through

time and explore your family heritage. Discover the root of your surname and explore your history.

You’ll spark great conversation and maybe even a few funny stories from the past.

Online software can help you create a family tree.

• Be artistic: Need a stressrelieving activity? Why not take up painting? But rather than get your hands dirty, try a free application, such as Windows 8 FreshPaint, which offers a realistic alternative to oil painting, without the mess.

And you don’t have to shell out for painting supplies.

• Be a chef: You may

already have a collection of favorite tried and true recipes. But it’s never too late to enlarge your collection. If you have an Internet connection, use it to fi nd new recipes and save them to a computer program, such as HP Recipe Box, which is an easy way to organize and store them.

You can even print out a grocery list to save you time while planning.

• Take it easy: For those with arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome, or those who just like things to be plain and simple, a touch screen desktop PC such as the HP ENVY 23

TouchSmart All-in-One can provide much needed relief. You can browse the web, play games, and keep in touch without the need for a keyboard and mouse.

More information can be found at www.HP.com.

• Play a game: From Scrabble to poker, you can play any of your favorite games even when you’re home alone. Either compete against the computer or play with far-away friends.

You may not jump on board every consumer technology trend, so if you’re going to be selective, look for those technologies that can enrich your life.

Fredonia President Hosts Tea Pot Tour in Historic 1855 College Home

By Peter Hamilton Star Contributing Writer

SUNY Fredonia College President, Dr. Virginia Horvath picked out one of the six teapots arranged on the fireplace mantel at the historic house on Central Avenue and remarked about the handle and the shape of the spout. “This is one of my favorites.” She admits, however, to having over 280 “favorite” teapots, as she welcomed guests to her home for a Chautauqua in June Teapot Tour of the President’s House recently.

There were all kinds of them throughout her home: tiny, large, multicolored, solid-colored, ceramic, porcelain. Many resembled animals in appearance: a camel; its rounded hump lifts away as the lid; a lustrously bleach-white porcelain elephant, a peacock, plume fanned for the handle; a parrot-shaped pot with multihued ceramic feathers, the beak as its spout.

Others were common

objects, fashioned into teapots: a British streetside mailbox, the bright red hexagon with the mail slot serving as the pourer.

One in the classical silhouette, its sapphire polish set within a silver rim.

“But,” Dr. Horvath confessed as she led the tour group into another room of the president’s house of SUNY Fredonia, “this one might actually be my favorite,” and took it down from the shelf. The teapot was made in the manner of an old-fashioned camera—the kind with the viewfinder at the camera top. Her grandfather was a professional photographer during the early last century and the teapot shape reminds her of his cameras.

Dr. Virginia Schaefer Horvath, President of SUNY Fredonia, was the demonstrator and cordial host for The Teapot Tour as part of the Lifelong Learning Program put on by the university.

She explained that the home initially was a paral-

lel structure, meaning it had a symmetrical floorplan: similar wings of the house on each side. A fire destroyed one of the wings decades ago, “so, it’s not so symmetrical anymore.”

The group met in the grand reading room of the house where two signed prints by Salvador Dali hung prominently.

“Potters, ceramic artists, porcelain novelists, made teapots into expressive designs.” – Dr Virginia Horvath, SUNY Fredonia.

“Where did you get all of these,” one of the participants of the tour asked about all the teapots.

“I got my first one when I was nine years old,” she answered. “Then, sometime later, I got two more.”

Then much later, about

1985, she recalled, she began collecting them. “I suppose when you find that you have three of something, then it seems like you’ve got a collection.”

And, undeniably, collecting enough to exhibit on several shelves; displayed amiably, welcoming them to be taken down and handled.

Many are on view in unpretentious places: between books; tucked into cubbies; on bedroom furniture.

Explaining their source further, she said that many of them came through eBay. Others, “in my travels,” she accounted, pointing out a wooden teapot and its six accompanying saucer-less cups. “That one is from Haiti.” Two signed Salvador Dali prints hang on the wall of the greeting room. Dali’s signature looked like an oblong ticktack-toe puzzle.

Dr. Horvath was inaugurated president one year ago. She has taught literature and writing for several decades and previously served as V.P of Academic Affairs at SUNY. The teapot tour was a part of one of many SUNY extended learning programs.

Teaching and instructing came easily for Dr. Horvath the day of the tour.

Instructionally, she said that the teapot probably derived from the ceramic kettles and wine pots which were also made in bronze and other metals, were a feature of Chinese cultural life for thousands of years.

“Potters, ceramic artists, porcelain novelists, made teapots into expressive designs,” she explained.

As an example, she indicated to one in the shape of fireplace. The mantle clock

on it could be pulled up for tea leafs.

A luncheon was served as a part of the tour. Before seating, each of the participants was told to roam freely throughout the house and select a teapot in which their selected flavor of tea would be steeped. All reassembled at the table for a meal that began with sweet

shortbread cookies. A baking specialty passed on to Dr. Horvath by her father.

Eleven people, eleven different teapots—presumably characteristic of one’s personality—gathered for with their choice.

In addition, the family entertainment series, features free performances each Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 5 and 7 p.m. in Smith-Wilkes Hall and at the Amphitheatre. The series appeals to family members of all ages providing fun, interactive entertainment ranging from music to mime, puppetry, dance and more.

During Community

Appreciation nights on Wednesday, tickets are half priced at $20, which Murphy states provides another reason for visitors to come on the grounds and experience Chautauqua.

Special Studies Chautauqua’s Special Studies program offers over 300 courses over the summer months. About 8,000 participate in the courses, which encourage lifelong learning through a variety of topics - including professional and artistic development, writing, and literature to name a few topics. Approximately 20% of those who attend are

from the local community, according to Murphy.

Health Care The most intense immersion in a subject takes place during week nine when the Institution tackles the topic of health care. According to Murphy, because health care reform is on everyone’s mind, the subject will be part of a three year theme from 2013-15. The number of workshops will also be increased on the subject to 25 per week, in what the marketing director calls “a real immersion in health care at the highest level,” and will cover everything from the massive

Due to the complexity of health care and health care reform, Murphy says the Institution will continue to offer lectures and forums as part of a multi-year look into the subject.

event Celebrates CanCer survivorsHip; raises $109,000

More than 500 participated in the 2013 Relay For Life of Dunkirk Fredonia on June 8, commemorating its 15th anniversary and the 100th birthday of the American Cancer Society. This year’s Relay included 38 teams, and has raised over $109,000 so far, according to Kate Hinds Morrison, current Marketing & Publicity Chair and the originating Event Chair.

Teams of runners and walkers from all walks of life gathered on the track at SUNY Fredonia taking turns walking, jogging or running laps in the 12-hour relay, which has since its inception in 1985, grown internationally and has become the signature event for the American Cancer Society. Its duration of 12-24 hours is symbolic of the non-stop fight against cancer and the endurance of cancer survivors.

Taking place from noon until midnight locally, the first laps of the race are taken by cancer survivors, which is referred to as a “victory lap.” Joining them in the second lap are caregivers and others who have supported them in their fight. “You see survivors take to the track, or, sometimes, a caregiver without

their survivor, and for it can be very emotional,” says Morrison. “It’s equal parts cheers and tears.”

More than just a fundraiser, the ACS characterizes Relay as a nationwide movement that offers communities an opportunity to participate in the fight against cancer at a grass roots level as well as celebrating cancer survivorship. For those fighting cancer, Relay is also a healing experience that offers a chance to meet others who have claimed victory of cancer.

One of the very special moments in each Relay for Life is the luminaria ceremony, which marks the last event of the evening.

Each candle is purchased in honor of a person who is alive and still fighting, someone who has been declared cancer free, or in memory of a love one.

“Solemn and introspective are two words to describe the luminaria,” states Morrison, “but it is also an amazing testament to progress we’ve made in the fight against cancer. There are so many more “In Honor” Luminarias now then there were when we started in 1999.” Afterwards, some take to the track and continue the walk.

Funds raised in the Relay for Life are focused on research, as well as patient

services, said Morrison.

For research, the focus is on unique and potentially groundbreaking research, where funds might otherwise be unavailable.

Patient services funded by Relay include Look Good, Feel Better, Man to Man, Reach to Recovery and Road to Recovery.

Honorary chair for this year’s Relay for Life was Christine Phelka. Catherine Gilven and Nancy Flitt served as event co-chairs.

Relay for Life began in 1985 in Tacoma, Washington through the efforts and vision of Dr. Gordon Klatt, a practicing colorectal surgeon, who ran and walked solo around the track at the University of Puget Sound, raising $27,000 for the fight against cancer. Dr. Klatt ran 83 miles the first year.

Since the first Relay For Life, the event has raised more than $4 billion, and in 2012, Relay for Life raised over $378 million.

More than three million people, or one in 100 Americans will take part in Relays this year. Half a million of them are cancer survivors.

acS penn-York Section recognizes outstanding High School Students Contributed Article ACS

The Penn-York Section of the American Chemical Society (ACS) honored area high school chemistry student recently at their annual awards night (Thursday, June 6, 2013) at the Dudley Hotel in Salamanca, New York.

The American Chemical Society is a congressionally chartered independent membership organization that represents professionals at all degree levels and in all fields of chemistry and sciences that involve chemistry. Penn-York is one of the largest geographical sections of the ACS, covering the western Southern Tier of New York and the adjacent area of Pennsylvania.

All high school teach-

ers in the Penn-York area were invited to select their outstanding chemistry student and submit his or her name to the Section.

The teachers, students and their families were invited to the dinner, where Chair Nancy Bryant, Professor of Chemistry at Jamestown Community College ( JCC) Olean Campus, welcomed everyone.

Secretary-Treasurer Charles Brininger, retired and adjunct Professor of Chemistry at JCC’s Jamestown Campus, gave background on the ACS and joined event organizer Donna Brestensky, Professor of Chemistry at St. Bonaventure University, in presenting the awards.

After receiving their $50 cash, each youth spoke briefly on their academic plans and professional aspirations.

The two students recognized from Chautauqua County were Jessie Caprino from Falconer and Alyssa Merrill of Cassadaga Valley.

Jessie’s teacher, Michelle Black, accompanied her.

Cattaraugus County students present were Francis Cardamone, West Valley; Mikeena Dowen, AlleganyLimestone; Jacob Shawley, Cattaraugus-Little Valley; and Finn Wilson, Ellicottville. Teachers Meghan George-Baker of West Valley and Dale LaChausse of Cattaraugus-Little Valley participated.

searCHing tHe Web

By Phil Bens Star Contributing Writer

I’ve always looked at the Internet and the WorldWide-Web as a tool more than a source of entertainment. Like many people, I use the Web as a resource to find answers to questions. There are so many ways to find information through the web, but in this article I will discuss the most popular tool to search, Google.

Google started in a garage back in 1995 by a couple of young college men that were attending Stanford.

Almost 20 years later it has become the main search engine that people use to locate information. Google is made up of hundreds

of supercomputers that are networked together.

These computers are programmed to look at web pages on the Internet and then create an index of these pages. So if you look at the Web as one big encyclopedia, Google would be the index to that encyclopedia.

As Google’s supercomputers analyze each webpage, they look at different parts of the page. Google looks at different characteristics of each page, one of the most important characteristics is the links that are on a page and what those links refer to. As Google finds a link it will check that link out and inspect that page and repeat the process. Some people refer to this process of going through the web as “crawling” or “spidering”. Google is constantly crawling the web to update its index. As new pages are created they will eventually become part of the index.

Google uses a formula, or an algorithm, to rank the pages in its index. The formula is pretty sophisticated and is based on the links in a web page, the key words on a page, and on pages that have linked to that

page. Based on this formula, searches that are entered into Google’s search page should retrieve pretty relevant results. Google also will place ads in the right hand margin and at the very top of the search results that will be relevant to the search. That is how Google makes money.

Online businesses want their pages to be high in Google’s rankings, so businesses will employ people that specialize in increasing their rank in search results.

This is known as search engine optimization (SEO).

If your online business or blog is highly ranked, it is likely to receive more traffic, which in turn, should produce more customers and advertising revenue.

Many experts claim that Google is not in the “search business” but they are in the “advertising business”.

It is easy to understand why.

Next week, I will discuss how to make your web searches more effective and efficient. There are some easy tips to cut through the billions of pages and get what you want quickly.

projector, so it will simulate actual fl ight.” Centi commented as well about the “Mars Yard” exhibition saying “the Mars Yard ties in with how the rovers are exploring Mars. People will learn basically about remote sensing and how NASA is working with the soil and the atmosphere of Mars.”

Then there is the new planetarium, which is still being developed, but promises to be a truly unique feature of the museum as well. “ The planetarium will be offering programs once everything is organized and the first program will be called Cosmic Cast A-ways, says

Centi. “We will be able to show people the sky at different times of the year, and when they come in for a program we can tell people what’s in the nighttime sky and they will be able to see it simulated.” For those who may not know, a planetarium is simply a dome, which is situated in a large dark room, with a projector that projects images of space onto the dome.

But the fun doesn’t stop there, as the museum also offers many hands on attractions for those who may be a little more interested in learning about space.

For example, visitors can assemble a tube rocket at one of the stations in the museum and then launch it using two different types of fuel. There is also a “mission to Mars” activity where one can assemble what they think an extra terrestrial planet habitat might look like and there is also a Bernoulli machine that simulates fl ight by sending an air current over a curved surface.

Interestingly, there is also a vintage Great Lakes Bi Plane Trainer that sits in the museum, which has been assembled in part by high school age teens who are involved in the S.E.A.M. program (student exploratory aircraft mechanics.) The program is run in cooperation with Jamestown Community College and M.T.I where kids can weld together the parts for the plane, now that’s hands on! The newest exhibit is a hot air balloon basket and envelope with all the paraphernalia donated by John Owens, long time owner of “Balloons over Chautauqua.”

If you are interested in the history of aviation then there are also some attractions here for you as well.

There is a Vietnam War exhibit set up with the very

extensive collection of gear and avian effects stemming from Ed Martiny’s own personal collection from when he served in the Viet Nam theater of Operations as a navy pilot. There is also a TDR I display which displays parts from actual TDR I’s which were secretly produced at the Jamestown airport during early 40’s. This display also gives information on the local test pilot, Warren Skelton, who test flew the models made here.

“We have been at the airport since 1986 since receiving its charter from the New York State Education Department as a not-for-profit 501 (c) 3 operating out of a hanger, “said Centi, adding “the museum was started by the late pilot and attorney, David Blossom and engineer Joseph Minarovich who served as curator until 2009.”

According to the pair, New York State forced the closing of the museum to the public due to building codes, which would have cost $162,000 dollars

to make the hanger code compliant. The museum board decided to come down town where they could work with the LucyDesi museum, and be more visible to people visiting downtown.

There is no admission cost, however, the museum does accept donations.

Hours are 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Monday through Saturday.

blessing. Because, despite the challenging market, they have created an opportunity to build relationships, and explore a different musical avenue.

These factors are so important because our era is accommodated with such rapid exchange that there’s a natural decrease in the overall value given to essentially everything, but specifically face-toface relationship building. At this shop, kinship can sprout from similar musical passions between community members.

Building a collection, obtaining all the equipment and fi nding time to simply sit and connect can create hurdles for many. Therefore, those that overcome them do it because of a specific appreciation for vinyl, allowing passions to meld from person to person and outwards to the overall community.

Certain factors have accounted for changes in popular social gather-

ings, moving away from record stores as a regular.

Historically, many people spent extra time socializing at them, but now rival chains have privatized these businesses to the extreme, and made them less likely for the majority to approach.

John stated in regards to these current trends, “I had an epiphany recently… I think the coffee shop has really taken the role of the record store in our society.”

In a sense, old is being lost to new. But, that’s natural.

What creates the strength of Good City Records is that music and commerce are taking a step backs towards classical avenues.

At the same time, they offer modern-day music, which doesn’t limit who can be pleased with their selections.

John and Andrew are currently opening their online store to a wider audience, found at www. goodcityrecords.com.

They are doing it with a strong conscious, crafting a collection of merchandise that appeals to their taste as well as their customers. They decided for a thoughtful and individual approach in favor of the mainstream “catchall approach”, as Andrew explained.

Anyone bearing interest for the first time needs to know this is a dedicated approach to music. Costs and some hard work are both necessary. Things slow down a bit, literally and figuratively; creating solidarity in the personal connection someone has when they play their music.

Good City Records is open every Saturday and Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. While their foundation stems from an earlier generation, they have expanded it into the contemporary community, creating a very worthwhile and special opportunity for the city of Jamestown.

One highlight of the book is from the collection of the George Eastman House in Rochester, New York.

The stereo image, taken in 1873, shows a large, lighterthan-air balloon in front of the 1000 Island House as it was being fi lled with gas (mostly hydrogen) prior to a 20-mile ride.

Tom French teaches English in Massena, NY. His

work has been featured in Mac|Life, Adirondack Life, Thousand Island Life, and The Watertown Daily Times. Several of his commentaries have aired on North Country Public Radio.

He also maintains a website dedicated to the oral history of the 1000 Islands, Riverstories.org. The site includes many recordings from the 1970s through 1990s of now deceased individuals discussing the history of the 1000 Islands as well as home movies from the 1940s on. There are also a number of old photographs and newspaper clippings featured on the site.

The Stereo World article contains fourteen stereoview reproductions, five from Chautauqua, and outlines the history of the Religious Camp Ground Movement from its roots in the early 1800s through the present day. The images are reproduced as whole stereocards, allowing readers to experience the original 3-D if they use a 3-D viewer or are familiar with a viewing method known as freeviewing (http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy - Freeviewing).

There are many modern day 3-D viewers available. Membership in the National Stereoscopic

Association (http://www. stereoworld.org/) includes a plastic hand-held stereo viewer with which to enjoy the many 3-D images presented in every issue of the glossy magazine. It is published six times a year.

The Chautauqua stereoviews are from the Chautauqua Institution Archives, Oliver Archives Center. Their collection of almost 200 stereoviews can be found online at http:// www.ciweb.org/ — search for stereo and view (2 words).

In addition to the cover photo, views from Chautauqua included in the article are Dr. J. H. Vincent’s Tent — At Chautauqua, an image of the

Chautauqua founder’s tent which as since been razed at what is now referred to as “The Bishop’s Garden” (Dr. Vincent was at one point in his life a Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church); Fairpoint Camp Grounds, a view of the original speakers stand along with rows of wooden benches and lighting poles from which pine knots were burned in small boxes fi lled with dirt; Palestine Park — At Fairpoint — Chautauqua Lake, a picture of the early Sunday School visual aid, the scale model of the Holy Land which is still present to this day; and Rev. Rich’d Newton and Children’s Day, a 3-D photograph from 1875 showing

an older gentleman surrounded by a large group of children.

Many 3-D books are available on various historical subjects from Gettysburg to the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake, and places from New York to London, Washington, and Minneapolis.

Queen guitarist, Brian May, an avid collector of stereoviews, has even published a 3-D book. A Village Lost and Found presents a series of views from an Oxfordshire village taken in the 1850s, one of the focuses of his collection.

French’s book is divided into three sections highlighting the early growth

In addition, Brown says the men were also sent to the NYS Fish Hatchery, to complete fish rearing ponds, working there for a week at a time, traveling the country roads from Panama to Randolph.

Participation in the Local Community Young men also contributed to the social activities of the area by speaking or entertaining for church and civic groups, which helped create good will between the campers and the locals.

Brown states that there were also newspaper clippings stating CCC men participated in a local talent show.

Once they also searched for a missing child in nearby Jamestown and dug a water hole used by local firefighters to extinguish a fire at a remote farm.

Brown also says that local families would take the non-residents in for a weekend, if they were far from home and there were also marshmallow roasts and chaperoned dances at the camp. In addition, the camps were also seen as an economic benefit for the surrounding communities, through the sale of produce and dairy products to the camp.

While the Harlem- Company 246-C, was not warmly welcomed, men from the group also participated in the local community. According to Brown, Some were golden glove fighters from New York City and would compete against the locals in Celeron Park. Fight outcomes would be predicted and reported in the sports section of local papers. Both companies, also had their own newsletters as well, the first called The Panama Echo, and the second,

because the war industry created better paying jobs closer to home and ultimately, conservation took a back seat to the defense of the country. On October 11, 1937, the Post-Journal reported that the CCC camp would be abandoned with the remainder of Company 246-C being transferred to another camp, Hungry Hollow.

Both companies of men accomplished the work set out for them at the Panama CCC camp. Brown writes, “The predicted abandonment of the Panama camp due to racial intolerance is a perfect example of what occurred in many locations throughout the United States.

Roosevelt Establishes Civilian Conservation Corps To address the environmental damage, as well as create work for the country’s most needy young men, President Franklin D. Roosevelt took action in 1933 by establishing the Civilian Conservation Corps. Every state participated in the CCC initiative throughout its nine-year span, but NYS program was the largest, according to Brown’s research, with 208 CCC encampments between 1932-1944.

Past Panama Rocks on Goshen Road was the site of Chautauqua County’s one and only CCC camp, which in a two-year span, would be occupied by two groups of men. The first, Company 1219, arrived on June 9, 1935, and was comprised mainly of young white men from Chautauqua and nearby Cattaraugus counties. Later, when it was replaced by a group of black men from Harlem, Company 246-C on April 6, 1937, the move would bring a great deal of controversy and racial unrest among locals who objected to the camp’s new work force.

Racial Unrest According to Brown’s research, The Department of Labor worked through local relief bureaus to screen CCC applicants and fulfi ll camp quotas, and it was only after CCC director Robert Fechner had threatened to withhold funds did

some states enroll AfricanAmericans. The camps, it was decided, would be segregated. According to Brown, many towns completely rejected the idea of African-Americans living close by, despite the CCC mandate that 10% of recruits be black.

The 200 young men, aged 18-25 were also bound by other requirements. Applicants had to be unemployed, unmarried, healthy, not in school and from a needy family capable of doing the assigned work. The men received $30 a month for their work, $25 of which would be sent back to their families. In return they received room and board and often took classes after their daily work was completed.

“They had a really strict regimen- when they got up, they did exercises, went out to work and came home around 4 p.m.,” says Brown. “Afterwards they might take classes in writing, reading or science. It was very comprehensive, so some who were illiterate came out with an education.”

Work Projects The men were engaged in all types of conservation work. In New York State, the Conservation Department planned and supervised the work projects of 115 sites, which included the recreational development of state camps, pest control, reforestation and fish and game management.

According to a Aug. 14, 1936 newspaper article, completed work from the Panama camp the first year included 1,467 acres of trees planted, 1,000 acres of land mapped, 1,845 acres of ribes eradicated, 585 acres of fire hazard reduction, 169 acres of forest stand improvement, 31 miles of firebreak constructed, five miles of

bounced a wild pitch past catcher Reyanne Strong. Without missing a beat Mott charged home as Strong raced to collect the ball.

The throw to Mott just beat the runner for the third out of the inning and the fi nal out in the careers of eight Frewsburg seniors.

Clafi n was superb for Sandy Creek. The senior allowed just four hits. She struck out eight of the first nine Lady Bears that stepped to the plate.

But on this day, Mott was just better. The righty scattered four hits and allowed just one walk.

She did hit three batters but struck out six in the big win.

Going out on the very top of the Class C softball scene were Mott, Strong, Cass, Blanchard, Shawna Raymond, Bethany Steele, Annie Berg and Bobbi Jo Whippo.

The Lady Bears’ semifinal game against Section 11’s Pierson/ Bridghamton wasn’t anywhere near the nail-biter as the final as Frewsburg cruised to a 7-0 victory.

Strong, Raymond and Cass — Frewsburg’s No. 1-3 hitters — combined for six hit and six runs in the win. Mott and Blanchard combined in the circle to spin a sixinning no-hitter. The pair struck out 10 while walking just one.

The third time was the charm for the Lady Bears as they will bring a New York State Public High School Athletic Association Class C softball title back to Frewsburg.

Playing in the State Finals for the third straight year, Frewsburg rode the right arm of Sam Mott to a 2-1 win over Section 3’s Sandy Creek in the championship game, Saturday at the Adirondack Sports Complex in Queensbury.

The game was the epitome of drama. The Lady Bears took a 2-0 lead into the bottom of the seventh inning thanks to a second-inning solo home run from Mott and Alanna Blanchard’s sixth-inning RBI single that brought home McKenzie Cass.

Mott had been throwing the ball so well that a two-run lead might as well have been 20, but Sandy Creek wasn’t going to go down meekly. After a leadoff walk, Shania Darling smoked an RBI double to left to cut the lead in half. Then with two outs and the tying run just 60 feet away at third base, came perhaps the play that will defi ne Mott’s career.

Congratulations to frewsburg, fredonia and others

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

Winning a state championship can’t be easy. Yet the Fredonia baseball and Frewsburg softball teams accomplished that feat last weekend. For that, I offer a hearty “Great Job!” Winning in team sports in general can be very hit-or-miss, especially in high school. An exceptionally talented player or two might be coming up through the system, but unless the rest of the team can hold its own, those players won’t ever see a championship. Even with a team whose talent level is out of this world, one bad game by a pitcher or a fielder can dash those dreams in the one-and-done playoff format of high school athletics.

This isn’t just true in sports like baseball, softball or basketball. I remember when I was running track for Dunkirk High School, the 4x800 relay was one of my favorite events. Yes, I realize loving the 800 meters is crazy as most people despise the event. But a relay team needs to be deep. We weren’t. Between myself and another runner we’d usually have a pretty decent lead, but handing off to a pair of rotating mediocre runners just doesn’t get the job done against top-flight competition. contInUED on pG 4

They're great teammates. They help us out. We certainly do all we can to help them out and help them grow and get stronger.''

Johnson hasn't done too bad, himself. He won his third race and his 63rd career Cup victory helped stretch his points lead to 51 over Carl Edwards.

He even survived a brief scare when the No. 48 had to make two attempts through post-race inspection because the car's weight was a bit off balance on the first try. The car was allowed a few moments to settle and passed on the second attempt, a common courtesy, NASCAR said.

The issue was about the way to slow down Johnson on Sunday.

Earnhardt's performance had tailed off a bit after opening the season with five

chautauqua Sports Hall of Fame announces Membership program

the perfeCt storm of unfortunate eVents

By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

My golfer’s diary will follow my golf outing(s) for the week. I’ll look at how course conditions, weather, equipment, playing partners, etc. affect the game we love. Please keep in mind that I only started golfing last year, so yes, my scores are hardly that of a scratch golfer. But that’s what makes golf great: You don’t have to be a zero handicap to enjoy the game.

When you golf poorly, you have to blame it on some outside factor right? It wasn’t my fault that I pulled it left, the wind took it and the sun was in my eyes.

Well that’s the kind of day I had Sunday golfing at Sugar Hill Golf Course in Westfield. For the days and days of rain we had prior to Sunday, the course wasn’t in bad shape at all.

The greens were actually pretty nice, albeit a little slow from being wet. There were a few low spots on the course that were a little swampy, but could be easily avoided.

The first factor that threw me off was the fact that I played alone again. Due to job interviews, babies being born and sudden illnesses, my foursome turned into a solo expedition. Sometimes

it’s nice to get out and just hit some balls by yourself, but I was looking forward to a foursome, so that was a major bummer.

As I was warming up on the practice green (and putting really well I might add), an older couple was teeing off on No. 1.

I figured it was a perfect setup because they’d be just far enough ahead of me by the time I was ready that I could just play right through. Well after roughly 10 minutes of stretching and getting loose, I fi nally teed off. I got to my ball, which was basically right next to the flag that marks the dogleg, and see the couple is only about 40 yards from the flag, right in the middle of the fairway.

Well rather than make them feel uncomfortable by playing right behind them, I decided to just pick up my ball and started on No. 7 (the tee box is fairly close to where I was). Apparently golf is a game of routine because not starting on No. 1 really threw me off. I hit one of the worst tee shots of my life starting No. 1. I then decided to take a mulligan and somehow, some way, hit a shot worse than my first one.

A masterful second shot

really helped save me, but I still ended up with a bogey.

Playing bogey golf is essentially what I strive for, but No. 7 is a hole that I know I can par, so I’d have to make it up somewhere else.

No. 8 didn’t go much better. Being a guy who comes up short on par 3’s probably 95 percent of the time, I went one club up from my usual and promptly tagged the ball over the green. To compound matters I hit an absolute dud trying to get it back on the green for a chance at par. Another bogey later and I was on my way to No. 9.

To make a long story short, a double-bogey on No. 9 didn’t exactly have me feeling confident headed back to No. 1. But alas, I briefly remembered how to golf.

An average tee shot was followed by an average second shot. But my third shot — a 5-iron — went just where I wanted it to. With some serious hills to the left of the green, that’s where you want to miss because it’ll roll back on the green.

My ball landed perfectly on the hill and SPLAT, stuck in the ground like it was struck with a hammer.

Darn wet ground just ate that ball up.

I had played Sugar Hill 11 times before I finally

recorded a par on No. 1.

Now I’ve done it on backto-back outings, so maybe my long irons are finally coming around and I’ll stop horribly yanking them to the left.

Due to a series of terrible shots, my next three holes were ugly, ugly, ugly. Three holes. Eight over par. That’s not a recipe for success. In fact, it’s downright embarrassing to write. A par on No. 5 helped, but that was followed by a triple bogey to close my day on No. 6. I was lucky to even get that after I literally skipped my ball across the pond on my second shot.

All in all it was a horrible round of golf. I had a streak of seven straight outings of under 50, but when I added my scores up on Sunday, I was disheartened to see a 50 looking back at me.

Maybe it was the weather.

Maybe it was starting on No. 7. Maybe it was golfi ng alone. Maybe it was the fact that I hadn’t played in 10 days. Maybe it was the putter or irons.

I just know it wasn’t my fault. It never is, right?

Fransen crowned Soap Box Derby champion

By Peter Hamilton Star Contributing Writer

The Soap Box Derby was once again held outside Diethrick Park in Jamestown on Saturday with Garret Fransen winning the championship race by fractions of a second.

“It was a quick race,” Derby organizer Tony Purpura said of the final race after a five-hour event. “It’s a great day for these kids.”

This year’s race had approximately a dozen boys and girls who entered heats. There are two race classifications: stock and super stock. The difference in the classification is the gross weight of the car and its driver.

According to Purpura, the driver is the greatest component of the competition. The Soap Box Derby regulations have a method to reduce individual car modifications. The wheels of each car are swapped out moments prior to the run down the track. The race begins immediately afterward. The tire swap simply enables sameness of each car. The skill toward racing victory is in the driver’s flair in handling and maneuvering the car.

“It’s the way you steer,” Fransen said. “The way you brake. As long as you don’t steer much, you’ll do good.”

“I try and not make it slow down,” second-place finisher Kaylee Lindual added

“It’s good sportsmanship and fun competition,” Purpura continued. “It’s a family affair.”

To be sure, it’s a family thing. Three generations of Soap Box Derby rac-

ers were represented at the day’s race. The Roller family — an unintentionally ironic surname for a family whose hobbies for over fifty years has been rolling race cars down slopes — were present that day. Grandfather, Phillip Roller, his son, Al Roller, and race driver, Caled, all worked together on Caled’s “Super Stock” racer. Phillip raced twice in 1953 and 1954. Al, Caled’s father, raced between 1985-1989. Neither dad nor granddad had come in at first place. Caled, however, came in third the day of the event. Phillip Roller made his own car back in the fifties. He said that it seemed like they — boys his age back then — had more time to do things like build racing cars; albeit, small motor-less ones. “Some kids nowadays are too busy, you know, with other things,” he said, motioning a pair of thumbs on an invisible touch-phone pad.

The winners of the Jamestown Soap Box Derby will advance to the Nationals to be held July 27th in Akron, Ohio.

Unfortunately, those efforts ultimately did not come to fruition and the team will not be playing in the upcoming season.”

The Ironmen had a 3719-4 record in 2012-2103 season and finished second in the North Division during the regular season. The team then went on to win the North Division title in the playoffs and to the

Commentary continued from pg 1 Let’s take a closer look at this Fredonia Hillbillies squad. At the top, they’re coached by one of the most passionate baseball men I have ever met in Vince Gullo. Since starting at Fredonia, Gullo has done nothing but win. It’s his second New York State Class B championship after also winning the title in 2006.

He also has a very devoted coaching staff below him that really gets the team ready for competition.

High school baseball, like the Major Leagues, is all about pitching. But again, having just one outstanding pitcher won’t get the job done. After all, the Hillbillies had to win two games within a matter of hours to clinch the state title on Saturday. The same guy isn’t going to throw 14 innings of baseball. Luckily for Gullo, he has the luxury of three aces on his staff. Senior Trent Thompson has been one of the best in Chautauqua County for a number of years now and he’s joined by sophomore standouts Weston Ley and Cameron Voss. Voss, a lefty, nearly threw a no-hitter in the title game — giving up a seventh-inning single before finishing off the shutout.

The second thing Fredonia had going is defense. These guys could field like I’ve never seen a high school team field before. Not only would they make every routine play, but usually more than once per game somebody would treat spectators (and their pitcher) to an outstanding play. First basemen Christian Saden is absolutely solid as can be, routinely saving throwing errors for his infield.

Before putting up seven and nine runs in their two games Saturday, the Hillbillies actually struggled a little bit at the plate, but that was the exception, not the rule.

With the pesky Nick Hart at the top of the order and big thunder like Zach Buckley, Ley, Voss, Jude Gardner and Thompson in the heart of the order, runs came in bunches for Gullo’s gang.

From top to bottom, there were no easy outs in the lineup. Even players off the bench added some serious speed on the base paths or some pop at the plate.

The scary part is, this wasn’t just the perfect storm of seniors for Fredonia. Sure, Gullo will miss Buckley, Thompson, Hart, Gardner, Seb McAfee, Saden and Matt Coyle but this is anything but a one-year wonder team.

With Ley and Voss on the hill next year and I’m sure more help on the way, it would surprise absolutely no one if Fredonia was back at States next year.

Admittedly I didn’t see too much of the Frewsburg Lady Bears this year, but what I saw was eye-popping. This is another example of a program the just keeps churning out winners behind coach Jon Blanchard — a man who lives for this game.

Blanchard has seen it all in his time as a head coach.

In fact, his first victory of 2014 will be the 300th of his stellar career. He’s brought along some superstar players — including current Forestville softball coach Brianne Hazelton.

This year’s team was no exception. The thing that stood out to me about the 2013 Lady Bears was their

sheer athleticism. Never before have I seen a group of girls collectively run and move like this team. Every infielder had exceptional footwork and every outfield took perfect routes to the ball. Some of that is coaching for sure, but this is also a very gifted team. I watched most of the same girls on the basketball court when they won the Section 6 championship and the same athleticism was very evident.

If also helps to have a bona fide ace in senior Samantha Mott. This powerful righty not only has a fastball that she can blow by anyone, but her offspeed pitches are among the best in Class C as well.

Mott had a shutout until the seventh inning in the Lady Bears’ state championship game against Sandy Creek.

She gave up one run in the seventh, but shut the door as the game ended with her tagging a runner out at home.

Mott wasn’t just a presence in the circle either.

She served as Frewsburg’s cleanup hitter and launched a solo home run to kick off the scoring in the second inning of the state final game.

Now that’s a senior leader if I’ve ever seen one.

As with Fredonia, Frewsburg is far from finished despite losing an awful lot of players to graduation.

Mott, Reyenne Strong, McKenzie Cass, Alanna Blanchard, Shawna Raymond, Bethany Steele, Annie Berg and Bobbi Jo Whippo all played their final high school game.

But this was the third straight year that Coach Blanchard has taken a team to the state finals. This is a man and program that knows how to win. Again, nobody would be shocked when Frewsburg is back next year.

Major props also go out to both Pine Valley baseball and softball. Both teams fell in the state semifinals, but what a great accomplishment for the district to send both programs to states. It’s the second year in a row for the boys while the girls shocked team after team on their way to a Far West Regional title. It was a fun ride and one that no one should feel disappointed in.

Another exciting note from the Spring sports season came from a familiar name: Silver Creek’s Zed Williams. The three-sport standout concluded his lacrosse career as the nation’s, yes nation’s career points leader. While he was never able to hoist that state championship trophy, Williams’ career is one of the finest Chautauqua County has ever seen.

One last team I’d like to single out is the Westfield Wolverines baseball squad.

I admit, I wrote you guys off early. After losing so very much from last year’s team, combined with the fact that Westfield cut its jayvee program so coach Doug Kalenbach had a very young roster, I didn’t see much hope. Thank you for proving me wrong by winning a Section 6 title.

It was a fantastic Spring sports season for Chautauqua County. Enjoy the summer while we wait for football, cross country, volleyball, swimming and soccer.

It came down to Ouimet and Vardon with two holes to play, and the 17th hole proved pivotal. Vardon tried to cut the corner of the dogleg, found a bunker and had to pitch out sideways on his way to a bogey. Ouimet made a birdie putt, and suddenly the lead was three shots going to the final hole.

Ouimet closed with a par for a 72, while Vardon made double bogey for a 77, making the margin look more than it really was.

Ray shot 78.

Fredonia wins second title in eight years continued from pg 1 After falling behind early due to some uncharacteristically sloppy defense, the offense put up six runs to quickly take the lead. The support came via RBI hits by Ley, Voss and Thompson.

With the lead in hand, Thompson settled down and held Ogdensburg off the scoreboard the rest of the way. He only struck out one while allowing six hits and a pair of walks but helped himself with three RBI with the bat in his hand.

The six runs in the third were plenty, but the Hillbillies added insurance runs in the fourth, fifth and sixth innings as they secured their spot in the championship game.

Falling short in their quest for a state championship in Class D were the Pine Valley Panthers after losing in the semifinals, 4-0, to Fort Ann.

First Softball Title In frewsburg School History continued from pg 1 The state championship is the first in the school history after coming up just short each of the past two years. Head coach Jon Blanchard also saw his team win for the 299th — and presumably most memorable — time in his career.

It’s a win that each and every one of the Frewsburg players, their parents, friends and family will remember for a long time. Congratulations girls.

Coming up short in their quest for a softball state title were the Pine Valley Panthers.

Playing in the Class D semifinals, Pine Valley –which has been a bit of a Cinderella story this year — fell to Fort Ann, 5-2.

The Lady Panthers just never got the offense going against Fort Ann’s Molly Bailey. They mustered just five hits and

They’re certainly a team to keep an eye on in the future. Thanks for a fun ride and congratulations on a great season.
