Contributed Article Ben Lindquist

The 4th Annual One Ball Tournament for Testicular Cancer will return to Willis Hale Town Park in Frewsburg on June 25. In an effort to continue raising awareness and funds, the One Ball Tournament gives people an opportunity to showcase their backyard WIFFLE® Ball skills while breaking down

the barriers of discussing testicular cancer in a public setting. In the first three years, with the help of participants, sponsors, and friends, over $12,000 has been raised. Since its inception in 2013, the tournament has continued to grow and has now evolved into a 501c3 non-profit organization, One Ball Foundation, Inc. The tournament is limited to the first 24 teams to register, with each team having the choice to enter

one of two divisions: “Competitive” or “We’re Here for the Party”. Teams consist of a maximum of six players. All participants must be age 21 or over. For those not interested in playing but looking for a way to participate, we are also seeking volunteers who would be interested in helping out the day of the tournament. Volunteers are needed to help with player check-in, raffle ticket sales, and as field representatives to keep the scorebook during games. CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

JCC Offers Pre-Collegiate Math and Reading Program Contributed Article Jamestown Community College

Jamestown Community College has created a program to assist individuals who need to strengthen their math or reading skills before they enter college. The Pre-Collegiate Math and Reading program is open to anyone preparing to enroll in college, regardless of the institution, this fall. The non-credit remedial 30-hour courses will be offered at each of JCC’s sites throughout the summer and are designed to prepare students to stay on schedule with core courses once they begin the fall semester. Classes are held Monday through Thursday. The cost is $20 for each course. Individuals who have already taken JCC’s placement tests will be retested at the conclusion of the course free of charge. Registration can be done online at www.sunyjcc.edu/precollegiate or by calling 338.1005 ( Jamestown), 376.7506 (Olean), or 363.6500 (Dunkirk). Participants in the pre-collegiate math course will be prepared to enter collegiate level math courses and develop a basic foundation for mathematical skills required for employment. The course assumes individuals have no previous knowledge of algebra, but they should have an understanding of number systems, basic arithmetic operations, and their properties. Examples of course topics include manipulating polynomials, rational expressions, and radicals. The math course is offered June 6-30 from 4:30-6:30 p.m. on the Jamestown Campus, from 4-6 p.m. on the Cattaraugus County Campus in Olean, and from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the North County Center in Dunkirk. A second session will be held July 11-August 4 from 10 a.m.-noon at all three sites. The pre-collegiate reading course helps participants develop reading skills to be better prepared for proficiency in credit-bearing courses and beyond. The course focuses on understanding main ideas, inferencing, recalling facts, vocabulary in context, summarizing and paraphrasing, critical thinking, and an author’s approach to content. The reading course is offered June 6-30 from 10 a.m.-noon in Jamestown, 7-9 p.m. in Olean, and 4-6 p.m. in Dunkirk. A second session is planned for July 11-August 4 from 1-3 p.m. at all three sites.

Tickets went on sale this past week for two major events coming to Chautauqua County this summer: The LECOM Health Challenge July 4-10 at Peek’n Peak and the Lucille Ball Festival of Comedy August 4-6 in Jamestown. While these events are quite different, each has an important role to play in the landscape of our region’s economic development efforts. The LECOM Health Challenge will return the Web. com PGA tour to Peek’n Peak. Web.com is essentially a proving ground for some of golf’s finest players as they rise in PGA Tour status. Three out of four PGA Tour stars spend time on the Web.com tour as they move up the ranks in professional golf. The resort near Clymer previously hosted a PGA event from 2002 through 2007. The week-long schedule of events includes a Pro-Am on Wednesday, July 6 and four official rounds of tournament competition July 7-10, with a tournament purse of $600,000. The Golf Channel will air the LECOM Health Challenge live on those dates. Tickets range in price from $10 for a daily pass to $25 for a general admissions ticket book for ThursdaySunday. VIP tickets are available for $100 per day and include food and beverage service. Parking and shuttle service is complimentary for all patrons. You can purchase tickets online at www.LECOMHealthChallenge.com or by calling United Way of Southern Chautauqua County at (716) 483-1561, or onsite at Peek’n Peak during the week of the event.

The Lucille Ball Comedy Festival will feature a stellar lineup of acts this summer, including headliner Brian Regan, who made history last September with the first live broadcast in Comedy Central’s history: Brian Regan Live from Radio City Music Hall. Jerry Seinfeld called him, “one of my favorite, favorite stand-up comedians.” Regan will take the stage at 8:30pm, Saturday, August 6 at Jamestown Savings Bank Arena. Lewis Black, known as the “King of the Rant” will perform Thursday, August 4 at the Reg Lenna Center for the Arts. Trevor Noah, host of The Daily Show, will be on stage at the Reg Lenna on Friday, August 5. In addition, the daughters of three of the most influential comedians in stand-up history will appear together on stage during the festival, honoring the legacy of Lenny Bruce, George Carlin and Richard Pryor. Kitty Bruce, Kelly Carlin, and Rain Pryor will participate in this special roundtable event. You can also be part of a panel discussion with Peter and Bobby Farrelly as they discuss some of their cinematic comedy hits including Dumb & Dumber and There’s Something About Mary. The Farrelly brothers’ event will be filmed for inclusion in the National Comedy Center retrospective series. Tickets prices vary by event and all ticketing information is available at www.lucycomedyfest.com. While these events will draw people from all over the country to our corner of New York State, we also hope that local residents will participate as well. Right here in Chautauqua County we are fortunate to present world-class entertainment and sporting events. Be part of the excitement and get your tickets now.

Author, Marine Goodell To Address JCC Graduates Contributed Article Jamestown Community College

Jessica Goodell, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and author of Shade It Black, will deliver the 2016 commencement address at Jamestown Community College’s Cattaraugus County Campus on May 20 and at the Jamestown Campus on May 21. The Cattaraugus County Campus ceremony begins at 7 p.m. in the Olean YMCA/JCC Physical Education Center on Wayne St. in Olean. The commencement program in Jamestown begins at 10 a.m. in the Physical Education Complex. Ms. Goodell earned a degree in social sciences from JCC in just two semesters, graduating at the top of her class and earning the college’s top social sciences award. She went on to earn a degree in psychology from the State University of New York at Fredonia in 2010 and is in the final year of a doctorate program in counseling psychology at the University at Buffalo. She hopes to work with veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorders and other combat-related mental illnesses. Her book, Shade It Black, is a memoir chronicling her service as a member of the Marine Corps’ first officially declared mortuary affairs unit at Camp Al-Taqaddum in Iraq. At the time of her service, Ms. Goodell was one of two women on the platoon and earned the rank of lance corporal. Ms. Goodell will be joined by Douglas Warn ’79 and Faith Baldwin Strong Donald ’75 in receiving the JCC Distinguished Alumnus Award during the Jamestown Campus ceremony. Chris Holland ’91 will receive the honor during the Cattaraugus County Campus commencement. Since 1980, the JCC Alumni Association has presented accomplished alumni with the Distinguished Alumnus Award, the association’s highest honor. The award honors those who have typified the college’s tradition of excellence and brought credit to the col-

lege through personal accomplishment, professional achievement, or humanitarian service. An author, speaker, and longtime clinician, Warn is the director of clinical training, supervision, and development at Project Renewal in New York City, a social service agency that serves homeless, addicted, mentally ill adults. Community service has long been a focus of Warn’s personal and professional life. His volunteer time is spent serving meals at the Church of Holy Apostles, which is home to the city’s largest soup kitchen. Warn earned a degree in psychology at JCC, a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Allegany College, a master’s degree at Syracuse University, and a master’s degree at New York University. Dr. Donald has spent her career as a healthcare provider and advocate. She was instrumental in establishing a community health center in Mississaugua, Ontario, Canada and guided the creation of HealthyOntario.com, a website designed to provide evidencebased health information to the public. Her research helped introduce and integrate the role of “nurse practitioner” to Canadian health care agencies. A graduate of JCC’s nursing program, Dr. Donald earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees in nursing at D’Youville College, a primary health care nurse practitioner certificate at Ryerson University, and a Ph.D. in nursing at McMaster University. Dr. Holland has spent his professional life working with youth. A “big brother” for the Big Brothers, Big Sisters programs, he has mentored youth in various capacities in six states, most recently as a tutor and counselor for Upward Bound programs. Now the vice president of student services at Florida State College, Dr. Holland earned a degree in liberal arts and sciences at JCC. He also earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees at the State University of New York at Fredonia; a master’s degree at SUNY Albany; and a doctorate at the University of Alabama.

This includes peace keeping and forgiveness. Ephesians 5:25 says, "Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it." How exactly did Christ love us? He made peace with us even though we were the ones in the wrong. Christ is the ultimate Peacemaker. Husbands that are going to live like Christ must be prepared to make peace with their wives regardless of how right you think you are. A Christ-like husband will take the blame to create peace in the home. The husband must be first in apologizing and letting things go. James 3:16 says, "For where envying and strife is there is confusion and every evil work." Seldom do we realize all the areas of life that are affected by strife. Strife will affect your health, finances, and mental stability. Notice it says "every evil work" is present when strife is allowed to remain. Husbands you must diffuse this threat. Be the first to apologize. Consider your wife first. Refuse to retaliate in anger. Lead with patience and tenderheartedness. It's a big assignment but well worth the rewards. Blessings, Pastor Tim

Falconer Wins Industry Design Competition

Contributed Article Chautauqua County Chamber of Commerce

The Industry Design Competition was one of the new and exciting events at this year’s STEM Wars & Career Search held on March 17 at Jamestown Community College. The competition, sponsored by Truck-Lite, encouraged students to create a design for a headlamp on a snowplow using Computer Aided Design (CAD). The team from Falconer Central School made up of Trenton Colburn, Colton Howard, Ben Bloomquist, Mitchell Walters and Paige King won first place with the best design as judged by the engineering team at Truck-Lite. Falconer Central School will hold and display the trophy for the coming year. The trophy is a replica of the Abraham Lincoln Memorial featuring the quote, “The best way to predict your future is to create it.” A nameplate recognizing the winning school’s team is included on the trophy, which will be given to each winning school to display for a full year as the competition grows. All Chautauqua County School districts were encouraged to participate in the Industry Design Competition in teams of four to six students. Five schools and teams competed in the first year. Each team was asked to submit a rough draft of its design to an industry professional assigned to the team by Dream

It Do It. That professional provided feedback to the teams so they could make adjustments and corrections before final designs were submitted. Brad Van Riper Sr., Vice President and CTO at Truck-Lite, said, the unique competition is “an opportunity to have the students use the STEM tools that they have been learning to try and solve an industry problem. We asked the students to redesign the product to improve the industrial design and integrate the new LED technology in to the products. We tried to limit the design constraints to try and gain a fresh approach to this product. We received some very interesting entries and very creative designs.” Falconer Central School Technology Teacher Steve Bower noted that projects like this one align nicely with the classroom curriculum, “This project ties in great with what the students are doing in the classroom. What they learned in Drafting, CAD and Electronics they get to use in real world application. Lots of problem solving and teamwork was observed throughout this project. Students can all agree on how important good communication skills are during the design process.” During the trophy presentation at STEM Wars the students were asked what they liked about the Industry Design Competition. The winning Falconer team students had a variety of answers. Paige King said, “We got to work on

It was the largest attendance in years at Lutheran’s 38th Annual Employee Recognition Banquet held at Moon Brook Country Club. Honorees had reached milestones ranging from two years of service to 35 years. Members of the Lutheran board of directors and the management team attended, as well. Clark Poppleton, chairman of the board of directors welcomed the employees and their guests and thanked staff members for their years of dedication and service. “Tonight’s theme for the evening is ‘One Lutheran’,” said Tom Holt, Lutheran president and CEO, as he welcomed the guests. “One Lutheran means whether you are a teacher in the Learning Center or a housekeeper in Hultquist Place or a nurse in the nursing home, or a maintenance worker at the senior housing apartments or a foster care employee in Buffalo – we are all One Lutheran.” The theme ties into a program that was launched a year ago called Living the Lutheran Experience.

Buttermilk-Honey Fried Chicken Fingers

Contributed Recipe Food.com

These are the best homemade chicken fingers I've ever tasted. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce; I like honey mustard. Toss any leftover chicken fingers with salad greens for a nice lunch. The Nutrition Facts show a high calorie count because the whole quart of oil for frying is being included. This recipe comes from Pam Anderson. Total time: 35 Mins Prep: 20 Mins Cook: 15 Mins Servings 8 INGREDIENTS Chicken Fingers • 4 teaspoons honey • salt • 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper • flavoring, of choice (see below) • 1 1⁄3 cups buttermilk • 2 1⁄2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breast halves, each cut crosswise into 8 to 9 strips (about 6 large) • 1 quart vegetable oil or 1 quart canola oil or 1 quart peanut oil or 1 quart corn oil • 3 cups all-purpose flour Classic Flavoring • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Maryland-Style Flavoring • 1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning Curry Flavoring • 1 tablespoon curry powder Cumin Flavoring • 2 teaspoons ground cumin • 2 teaspoons paprika • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

DIRECTIONS • In a large bowl or shallow baking dish, mix the honey, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper, and flavoring of choice into the buttermilk. Add the chicken and • turn to coat. • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over high heat until it reaches 375 degrees. • Meanwhile, mix the flour and 1 tablespoon salt in a doubled paper bag (I've also used a large ziploc bag). Drop about 8 chicken strips into the flour, close the bag, and shake to coat the chicken.

Place the chicken pieces on a wire rack set over a baking sheet (or newspaper for easy cleanup). Repeat with the remaining chicken. Working in 4 batches, drop the chicken pieces into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning if necessary to ensure even browning, about 3 minutes. Transfer to another wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain. Keep first batches warm in the oven while the rest of the chicken cooks, making sure the oil comes back up to 375 degrees after each batch.

Birds & Blooms Walk at Fredonia College Lodge

Contributed Article Audubon Nature Center

The only thing that could improve a trail walk during the spring woodland wildflower and bird migration season would be enjoying it with expert guidance. You are invited to join a “Birds & Blooms Walk” on Wednesday morning, May 25, led by retired SUNY Fredonia professor Terry Mosher. The 9-11 a.m. opportunity offered by the Audubon Nature Center will be at the College Lodge Nature Preserve in Brocton, New York. The Nature Preserve supports some of the most diverse habitat in Chautauqua County, including old growth forest, northern hardwood and hemlock forest, evergreen plantations, forested swamp, shrublands, and open fields. It is one of only five Chautauqua County birding sites noted in the resource “Where to Find Birds in New York State” and harbors a number of rare and unusual plants. For 36 years, Dr. Mosher taught cours-

es in environmental literature, English education, and poetry at SUNY Fredonia. The longtime birder and amateur naturalist is Past President of the Lake Erie Bird Club. Mosher will help walkers to see and hear the many birds that are passing through or settling in to breed in our area. In addition to looking up, participants will also keep their eyes on the ground to look for spring wildflowers. While many of the early bloomers will be done by this time, others will just be coming into color. Participants should dress for the weather, wearing sturdy shoes or boots. Bring binoculars if you have them. The SUNY Fredonia College Lodge and Nature Preserve is located at 8067 Route 380 in Brocton, New York. Rain date is Saturday, May 28, 2016. The program is free, but space is limited. Reservations are required by Friday, May 20: Call (716) 569-2345 during business hours or click on “Birds & Blooms Walk” at www.jamestownaudubon.org. The Birds & Blooms Walk is the second

of six free programs to be offered in the northern part of Chautauqua County to introduce residents to the types of programs offered at the Nature Center. This outreach series is made possible by funding through a Community Benefit Grant by the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation. The Audubon Nature Center is at 1600 Riverside Road, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown, New York, and Warren, Pennsylvania. The building, with its collection of live animals, interactive exhibits and the Blue Heron Gift Shop, is open 10 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 1-4:30 p.m. Sundays. The grounds, including trails, gardens, picnic tables, arboretum, and Liberty, the Bald Eagle, are open from dawn until dusk daily. To learn more about this and other programs offered by the Audubon Nature Center, call (716) 569-2345 during business hours or visit www.jamestownaudubon.org.

On Wednesday morning, May 25, longtime birder and retired SUNY Fredonia professor Terry Mosher will lead a “Birds & Blooms Walk” at the College Lodge Nature Preserve in Brocton, New York. Pink Lady Slippers, like those pictured here, should be in bloom then. Thanks to support from the Northern Chautauqua Community Foundation, this Audubon Nature Center program is free and open to the public, but reservations are required. (Photo by Jeremy Martin)

Because cataract surgery is performed by a physician rather than an optometrist, Medicare Part B covers the surgery, including lens implants. And following that surgery, it can pay its share for one pair of eyeglasses. How much it pays for the glasses depends on whether you get new frames, and if so how much they cost. Medicare Part B will pay for both lenses and frames, but only basic frames. If you buy more expensive frames than the basic ones approved by Medicare, you'll have to pay out of pocket for the difference between the standard amount Medicare pays and the amount your frames actually cost. With Original Medicare, you have to pay a coinsurance amount for both the surgery and the glasses which is 20 percent of the amount Medicare approves for the surgical procedure and for the glasses and frames. Before you choose new glasses after your surgery, make sure to let the doctor's or optometrist's office -- depending on which one you are ordering your glasses from -- know that you want the bill for your glasses sent to Medicare, and ask what frames they have that are fully covered by Medicare (not counting your 20 percent coinsurance amount). While coverage for dental, vision and hearing continues to be an increasing health insurance need for seniors, finding out what your current doctor accepts for insurance coverage is a good starting point to determine what insurance might be right for your specific needs and easy on your pocketbook!

WCA Home Changes Fundraiser to Trunk Sale on Campus June 4 Contributed Article WCA Home

Instead of the annual “Front Porch Sale,” The WCA Home in Fredonia will be holding a “Trunk Sale” as its fundraiser this year. The event is set for Saturday, June 4, from 8 a.m. to noon at Parking Lot Number 7 on the SUNY Fredonia campus. The event will be held during the weekend of the Fredonia Chamber of Commerce Attic and Seller Days. “A century ago, The WCA Home was created by local women with a special mission to be affordable,” Board of Directors President Christine Davis Mantai said. “Donations from individuals and fundraising events really help us make that mission sustainable today.” As a New York State-licensed Assisted Living Pro-

gram facility, The WCA Home is a residence for women who can no longer live successfully at home or need more care than is provided in Adult Homes. It is the only state-licensed Assisted Living Program in the north county. The Trunk Sale is a version of a typical yard sale or flea market. It will feature many vendors in one location who are selling items out of the “trunks” of their cars, or out of their vans or trucks. A donation of $40 to The WCA Home allows the vendors to use two reserved parking spaces (one vehicle only) to set up. Anything can be sold except food. The proceeds of their sales are theirs to keep. The $40 purchase of the permit is a tax-deductible donation to The WCA Home. The two-tiered Parking Lot Number 7 is located behind the Alumni House on Central Avenue. Vendors will be parked on the upper tier, and the browsers

and buyers will park on the lower tier. Members of the Board of Directors of The WCA Home will be staffing the event. They will also be advertising the sale to potential buyers, providing signage on Central Avenue, and giving directions and help at the event. “We’ve obtained permission from the university to use the two-tiered parking lot, which we think is an ideal location for vendors and buyers. It is fullypaved, centrally located, right in the middle of Attic and Seller Days, easy to find, and accessible to the handicapped,” Ms. Mantai said. A committee of Board members is organizing the fundraiser: Lucinda Coon, Barbara Servatius, Janet Brown, and Marjorie Maloney Plaister. To obtain a permit or make a donation, call Marnie Ulkins at The WCA Home, 672-7961, or email her at wcamarnie@netsync.net.

Local Talent Featured In Fredonia Pops Concert Contributed Article Fredonia

Talent from both the campus and the local community will come together when Rockefeller Arts Center at the State University of New York at Fredonia presents its traditional Commencement Eve Pops concert. “The Music Man in Concert” will be presented on Friday, May 13 at 7:30 p.m. in King Concert Hall on the Fredonia campus, continuing Rockefeller Arts Center’s long-running tradition of commencement eve entertainment. Set in Iowa in 1912, “The Music Man” centers on con man Harold Hill, who poses as a boys’ band organizer and leader in an effort to sell band instruments and uniforms to the naïve townsfolk. Hill promises to train the new band, but his real plan is to skip town without giving any music lessons. The town’s librarian and piano teacher, Marian Paroo, sees through him. But when Hill helps her younger brother overcome his lisp and social awkwardness, she begins to fall in love. Hill experiences similar feelings and risks being caught to win Marian. The cast for this concert version of Meredith Willson’s Tony Award-winning musical comedy is a large one. A total of 27 Fredonia students have roles. In lead roles are: - Jeff Kringer, a sophomore Musical Theatre major, as Professor Harold Hill. His credits

The cast of the Rockefeller Arts Center production of “The Music Man in Concert” includes, front, Adam Hartung (Winthrop) and, back from left, Michaela Tramuta (Eulalie Shinn), Stephen Keefe (Mayor Shinn), Jeff Kringer (Professor Harold Hill), Lucia Helgren (Marian Paroo), Christine Boehm (Mrs. Paroo) and Kiernan Matts (Marcellus Washburn). The Commencement Eve Pops event will be presented Friday, May 13 at 7:30 p.m. in King Concert Hall at the State University of New York at Fredonia.

include “It’s a Wonderful Life: The Radio Play,” “HAIR: The Tribal Love-Rock Musical,” and “The Laramie Project/ The Laramie Project: 10 Years Later.” - Lucia Helgren, a junior Vocal Performance and Arts Administration double major, as Marian Paroo. Her recent credits include the Hillman Opera productions of “The Merry Widow” and “Susannah,” the 2015 Commencement Eve Pops production of “South Pacific in Concert” and “The 2014 Big Band Christmas Spectacular.” - Christine Boehm, a junior Musical Theatre major, as Mrs. Paroo. Her credits include “Cabaret,” the 2015 Commencement Eve Pops production of “South Pacific in

Concert” and “HAIR.” - Kiernan Matts, a senior Musical Theatre major, as Marcellus Washburn. His credits include “Cabaret,” “James and the Giant Peach,” “Footloose” and “The Odd Couple.” - Michaela Tramuta, a sophomore Musical Theatre major, as Eulalie Shinn. Her credits include “Balm in Gilead,” “Man of La Mancha,” “Lizards” and “Suburbia.” A graduate of Fredonia Central School, Tramuta played the title role of Millie in Fredonia High School’s 2013 production of “Thoroughly Modern Millie” and the lead role of Rosie in the 2014 production of “Bye, Bye Birdie.” Tramuta is not the only Fredo-

nia resident in the cast; three members of the community have key roles in the production. Stephen Keefe will bring reallife expertise in acting and politics to the role of Mayor Shinn. Keefe has extensive credits as an actor. He first appeared in “Street Song,” an original play written and directed by Albert Sorci of Fredonia. He has performed in productions by the D & F Players, including “A Thousand Clowns,” “You Know I Can’t Hear You When the Water’s Running,” “Cahoots” and “Murder at the Howard Johnson.” Most recently, he had a cameo role in Brocton Central School’s production of “Annie.”

Play Ball! JAMESTOWN JAMMERS OPEN 2016 SEASON ON JUNE 1 By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

Baseball will be back at Diethrick Park when the Jamestown Jammers kick off their season with a home contest against the Newark Pilots on June 1. The Jammers join the Perfect Game Collegiate Baseball League this season. The league consists of 13 teams, including many former NY-Penn League teams. Numerous PGCBL alumni are currently on Major League rosters including J.D. Martinez and World Series champion Hunter Pence. Another 78 former PGCBL are currently on professional rosters at the Minor League level. “The league is for college players aspiring to play professional baseball,” head coach and office manager Anthony Barone explained. “It’s routinely rated as one of the top five collegiate leagues in the country.” The move to a new league comes with definite advantages for the players and staff. “Travel is going to be a big difference from last year,” Barone admitted. “The longest trip this year is six hours. Last year we were traveling 13 hours out to Missouri. And you’ll see the same level of baseball, maybe better.” Collegiate summer baseball leagues draw players from all over the country. The Jammers’ roster already includes players from New York, Tennessee, North Carolina, Texas, Connecticut, Alabama, Georgia, Pennsylvania, California, New Jersey, Kentucky and even Ontario, Canada. “Our roster is very talented,” Barone said excitedly. “We have 26 Division I

added. “We have a new groundskeeper down here. He’s doing a really good job. The park looks beautiful. It’s a historic place and there’s value to that.” Of course, what’s baseball without fun off-the-field activities? “One event I’d really like to highlight is July 9,” Barone noted. “That’s going to be Pink the Park Night. WCA Hospital is the presenting sponsor for that. We’re going to encourage people to wear pink. We’re going to be wearing pink jerseys. There will be an auction. It’s going to be a special night for the community.” Barone was as excited about the team in the office as the team on the field. “We have a really good group of interns coming in,” he shared. “It’s mostly locals. JCC has been a big help. The Community Foundation has done a wonderful job, too. They pulled from their pool of scholarship candidates. I had a really players from all over the country.

COMMENTARY

By The Numbers: The Best Players By Stefan Gestwicki Star Sports Editor

Monday was Tony Gwynn’s birthday. MLB.com celebrated the late, great San Diego Padres great with 19 facts about the Hall of Famer (19 being, of course, Gwynn’s uniform number). Not only were the stats positively astounding (Gwynn had 11 more four-hit games than games with multiple strikeouts) but it got me thinking about other athletes who wore number 19. It’s not a number that elicits memories of a ton CONTINUED ON PAGE 24

CHAUTAUQUA STAR FRIDAY, MAY 13, 2016

SPORTS COMMENTARY, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 23 of great athletes for me. As my slightly deranged sports-centric mind works, I obviously had to look up other athletes that wore 19. Where are we now? Well, a list of the greatest players to wear each uniform number. Please note that I don’t know much about soccer, lacrosse, etc. This list is mostly the four major North American sports. Enjoy! No. 00: Robert Parish, NBA — There obviously aren’t a ton of options for the ol’ double zero, but Parish is a fine way to start off this list. The Boston Celtics big man was a four-time NBA champion and nine-time All-Star. In the running: Jim Otto, NFL – Pro Football Hall of Famer. No. 1: Oscar Robertson, NBA — Robertson was just in the news for appearing to be a crotchety old man, but don’t let that take away from his ludicrous accomplishments on the court. “Big O” was a triple-double machine who revolutionized how the point guard position was played. In the running: Ozzie Smith, MLB – He was more than just backflips, Smith had nearly 2,500 career hits. Warren Moon, NFL – led the league in passing yards in both 1990 and 1991. No. 2: Derek Jeter, MLB — I can’t imagine anyone reading this needs me to argue for Jeter, but when a guy collects 3,465 hits and wins five World Series titles while playing for the league’s premiere franchise, it’s hard to pick anyone else. In the running: Moses Malone, NBA – a 12-time All-Star that currently sits eighth on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. Malone won an NBA title in 1983 with Philadelphia. No. 3: Babe Ruth, MLB — In what I assume will be one of the easiest numbers on this entire list, Ruth gets the nod here. As arguably the game’s greatest, most iconic player of all time, Ruth not only made the world fall in love with the long ball, but he won a stunning seven World Series titles with the Yankees. In the running (kind of ): Allen Iverson, NBA – No amount of practice would have gotten Iverson in over Ruth, but “The Answer” had a prime that won’t be matched any time soon. The best pound-for-pound player the NBA will ever see. No. 4: Bobby Orr, NHL — In addition to being a hilariously common crossword puzzle answer, Orr is also one of the greatest players in NHL history and a Boston legend. He was a pair of Stanley Cups in addition to eight (8!) Norris Trophies as the league’s top defenseman. In the running: Brett Favre, NFL – retired as the career leader in just about every NFL passing statistic. Lou Gehrig, MLB – The Iron Horse is somehow a vastly underrated player. A two-time MVP and .340 career hitter, Gehrig’s life was famously and tragically cut short by ALS. No. 5: Joe DiMaggio, MLB — We’re only on No. 5 and already we have a third New York Yankee

Is Derek Jeter sports’ greatest No. 2 of all time? He is according to my list. (AP Photo)

with a fourth being “in the running.” I promise I’m not a Yankees fan, but I can’t deny these guys their due. Joltin’ Joe (like another MLBer that will surely be coming up on this list) missed three years in his prime while serving in the military. His age 28-30 seasons were lost, making his numbers even more amazing. His 56-game hitting streak is among the records that might never be broken. In the running: Kevin Garnett, NBA — One of the fiercest competitors of all time is currently finishing up a sure-fire Hall of Fame career. Nicklas Lidstrom, NHL — A seven-time Norris Trophywinning defenseman who played 20 seasons for the Detroit Red Wings and won four Stanley Cups. No. 6: Bill Russell, NBA — This turned out to be another fairly easy number to choose and it’s another Boston sports legend. Russell is the subject of my favorite photo of all time in which the Hall of Fame center is shown holding his ELEVEN championship rings. He won more rings that he had fingers. No big deal, but he was also a five-time NBA MVP. In the running: Julius Erving, NBA — Dr. J is one of the ABA/NBA’s biggest stars, winning four MVP awards and three championships. His dunking skills are legendary, but Erving had an all-around game that made him one of the game’s greats. No. 7: Mickey Mantle, MLB — Huh, a Yankee. Fancy that. There was no leaving Mantle off of

this list, however. As a three-time MVP. 20-time All Star and seven-time World Series champion, Mantle is on the short list of men who could claim the title as the greatest hitter of all time. He won the Triple Crown in 1956 and is certainly the greatest switch hitter to ever play the game. In the running: John Elway, NFL — Elway was the poster boy for never winning “the big one” before winning a pair of Super Bowls and retiring on top. Now the architect behind Denver’s latest Super Bowl team. No. 8: Alexander Ovechkin, NHL — Here’s a pick I could take some heat for, but I’m not convinced there’s a right answer. Yet in an era when scoring is way down, Ovechkin has scored 50+ goals in three straight seasons. Still at just 30 years old, Ovi has 525 goals and 966 points in 839 games. It feels weird putting him alongside legends, but when all is said and done, I have no doubt Ovechkin is going to be regarded as one of the NHL’s all time greats. In the running: Kobe Bryant, NBA — Kobe would be the obvious choice here but he changed to No. 24 in 2007. Steve Young and Troy Aikman, NFL — A pair of great NFL quarterbacks from the same era. Both guys won Super Bowls and are Hall of Famers. Teemu Selanne, NHL — Probably Ovi’s biggest competition here T was from his own sport. Selanne has the 11th most a goals (684) in the history of the game. (EDIT: I totally forgot about Cal Ripken, Jr. somehow. He probably would have been the choice here). C No. 9: Ted Williams, MLB — I plugged The P Splendid Splinter in here before doing any research, but there’s one obvious challenger that I’m sure NHL fans will be clamoring for. As it is, Wil- P liams would get my vote for greatest hitter in the m history of MLB. He’s the last man to hit .400 in a season. He slugged 521 home runs and collected 2,654 hits. Oh, and he missed three seasons due a to military service. Those three years came after K back-to-back seasons of leading the league in home l runs. When he came back, all Williams did was hitT .342/.497/667. Good grief. In the running: Gordie p Howe, NHL — “Mr. Hockey” won four Stanley s Cups and six Hart Trophies (MVP). Hockey News listed him as the third greatest hockey player of all T time. Drew Brees, NFL — He wasn’t really in the 1 2 running, but it’s hard to argue that Brees hasn’t had a brilliant career while bringing a Super Bowl 1 to New Orleans. 2 That’s all I have room for this week. Perhaps as soon as next week I’ll do Nos. 10-19 (or more). Did 2 I get any wrong? Did I forget anyone (extremely 3 possible)? Send me an email at stefan.gestwicki@ 3 star-mediagroup.com. 4 2 4 5 5

ACME Donates Freezer To Vince Messina Golf Tournament Contributed Article WCA Hospital

Shortly after retiring from WCA Hospital after more than 35 years of dedicated service within the Radiology Department, Vince Messina tragically died. After his passing, Vince’s wife Kathy created the Vincent A. Messina Memorial Scholarship Fund to provide scholarships to students enrolled in the WCA Hospital School of Radiologic Technology. Vince was a very proud member of the radiology school’s first graduating class in 1969 and loved the game of golf. The 3rd Annual Vince Messina Tournament, to be held on Saturday, May 21, at Conewango Valley Country Club, Warren, Pennsylvania, will help grow the Scholarship Fund. There are still spots available for golfers.

The registration and driving range will open at 11:30 a.m.; lunch will be served at noon; and a shotgun start at 1 p.m. To reinforce Vince’s love for the game of golf and to pay special tribute to him, friends, co-workers and numerous businesses and individuals have joined together to sponsor, play or contribute to the cause.

Bills Taking It Slow With QB Cardale Jones By John Wawrow AP Sports Writer

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -- The first step in Cardale Jones' development in Buffalo began with the Bills focusing on the rookie quarterback's first step. ''We started switching up my feet a little bit,'' Jones said after taking the field for the first time since the Ohio State player was selected by the Bills in the fourth round of the NFL draft. ''I'm used to staggering my left foot and then taking a fall step, and that's even worse,'' Jones added Friday, when the Bills opened a three-day rookie camp. ''Just trying to break the habit. It shouldn't be too hard just because I learned the habit three months ago.'' Everything is essentially raw and undeveloped about Jones. And that has led to the Bills taking a startfrom-scratch approach in their bid to develop a quarterback who displayed vast potential and glaring inexperience during what boiled down to a flash-inthe-pan three-year college career. Making the tremendous jump from third-stringer to starter during his sophomore season, Jones went 11-0, including leading the Buckeyes to win the 2015 national championship. And yet, that wasn't enough to relieve lingering concerns about his decision making and accuracy; Jones was benched after seven starts last season. The task now falls on Bills quarterbacks coach David Lee to begin an extensive grooming process to determine whether Jones can one day compete at the NFL level. It's going to take patience. ''He's got the physical gifts you look for, there's no question about that,'' said coach Rex Ryan, referring to Jones' 6-foot-5, 253-pound frame, big hands and strong arm. ''But you also notice that he's just going through everything like, it's spinning right now. He's throwing behind guys. He doesn't know where he's going right now with it. So he's got a long way to go.'' Ryan's assessment came after Jones' inconsistencies were readily apparent during his first practice. At times, he effortlessly zipped the ball into tight holes to make completions - and sometimes incompletions, because his receivers seemed unaccustomed to how hard Jones can throw. On other occasions, he bounced short passes a couple of feet in front of his intended target. Jones described his first day as a positive one, and was particularly pleased with the pointers he received regarding footwork and a tendency to drop his elbow. ''It's not overwhelming,'' Jones said. ''Overall, I think I'm keeping my head above water.'' The key is staying open-minded to accept, rather than question, what he's being taught.

''You have to trust, not just trust but have faith in the coaches,'' Jones said. On the bright side, Jones' development doesn't need to be rushed, something Bills general manager Doug Whaley took into account upon drafting him. ''He's got some stuff to work on, but he doesn't have any muscle memory already ingrained in him that's bad,'' Whaley said. ''So we've got a piece of clay, and we can mold him.'' Tyrod Taylor returns as Buffalo's starter, with EJ Manuel in place as the primary backup. Both, however, are in the final year of their contracts, leaving the position uncertain for 2017. Jones accepts his place in the pecking order, while understanding it's on him to work his way up. ''I didn't come here saying I want to take over anything,'' Jones said. ''I'm going in here knowing and believing that Tyrod is our starter. I'm going in here knowing that EJ is the backup. I'm going in here learning and working as hard as I can every day.'' Jones balked at a question regarding how far he needs to go before showing he's capable of running an NFL offense. ''I feel like that's a weird question to ask,'' he said. ''Whatever it takes. In my personal opinion, I can be ready whenever they need me to be ready.'' Rookie defensive lineman Adolphus Washington, who played with Jones at Ohio State, noted the quarterback already made a good first impression. Jones asserts his command in the huddle by calling out plays and, when necessary, demanding players cut the chatter.

''I was hearing some of the guys in the locker room talking about it,'' said Washington, Buffalo's thirdround pick. ''I was proud to hear that, because that's one of the things that he probably needed to work on.'' One step at a time.

Kyle Busch Finally Gets First Sprint Cup Win At Kansas By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) -- Kyle Busch has seemingly dozens of reasons to despise Kansas Speedway, from the two times he crashed out of Chase races to the innumerable misfortunes in other series. Now he has one big reason to speak fondly of it. Busch sailed away from Kevin Harvick after a late wreck collected several of the leaders Saturday night, and finally won a NASCAR Sprint Cup race at one of three tracks that had eluded him. ''I didn't know we'd have that much speed in our race car. I guess I should have known,'' said Busch, who still needs to win at Charlotte and Pocono to knock off every current track in the series. ''We had a topfive car in the middle part of the race. We kept making improvements to it, kept making it better.'' Busch won for the third time this season, and gave team owner Joe Gibbs his sixth victory already this season. But this one may have been the sweetest given Busch's history at Kansas. ''This is a place that's been tough on me over the years, and probably almost caused me to go into retirement,'' Busch said, laughing. ''There's been a lot of rough days at Kansas, that's for sure.'' Harvick was second after making major changes to his car following a poor qualifying effort. Kurt Busch was third, Matt Kenseth finished fourth and Ryan Blaney wound up fifth. ''You know, it's our best finish of the year. That's the bright side,'' said Kenseth, who was alongside Busch on the final restart with 19 laps to go. ''I thought we were as good as the 18 if we could have had position, but it was tough restarting on that bottom.'' Martin Truex Jr. won his first pole in two years and looked like he'd be the one to finally get the victory that has eluded him at Kansas, drawing away for big

leads on every restart. He still had a comfortable lead entering the final round of scheduled stops with 54 laps to go, but Truex radioed to his team that he had a loose wheel after leaving his stall. He had to come down pit road again and dropped off the lead lap, another late-race gaffe costing him a chance to win. Truex led 95 laps at Kansas last spring, but fuel and tire strategy conspired left him ninth. His team also

made a strategic mistake that cost him earlier this season at Texas. ''I couldn't believe it,'' he said. ''Went around 1 and 2 C and was like, 'Damn, the wheel is loose.' I kept telling N myself maybe it's not. ... Frustrating but that's how it goes.'' Tony Stewart briefly took the lead in his return to the T No. 14 full-time, but everything changed when Ricky a Stenhouse Jr. slapped the wall moments later. That o bunched up the field and ultimately led to the only o major wreck after last weekend's crash-filled race at i Y Talladega. u Brad Keselowski and Denny Hamlin got sideways s going through a corner, and that forced Kyle Larson w into the wall. Joey Logano had nowhere to go, slam- o ming into Hamlin and ending both of their nights. t ''I was just going for it. We got to win. It's win or L nothing with this type of format, so why not go in there and take a chance?'' said Hamlin, who admit- Y ted to pressing the issue after two speeding penalties e p on pit road cost him track position. ''I have to get C better on pit lane to give us a chance.'' w Logano was strong once again after winning two of f the past three races at Kansas. i ''It's just racing, the end of a race,'' he said. ''It kind b of stinks, two weeks in a row I'm walking out of the a infield care center. ... It's just racing. Things happen.'' t Busch elected to stay on the track to protect his posi- L tion, rather than pit for tires, hoping that the clean b air of running in front would pay off. It was a risky L gamble by crew chief Adam Stevens, but one that he ( was willing to make to change his team's fortunes at p s Kansas. s ''It's always cool to get to Victory Lane, but to knock p off another place we haven't won at is really special,'' t Stevens said. ''He's had a really storied career and done a lot of great things, and to help him accomplishD o one of the things he hadn't done is really cool.'' u fl o a i

Kentucky Derby Champ Nyquist Arrives At Pimlico By David Gingburg AP Sports Writer

BALTIMORE (AP) -- When it comes to selecting a stall for his Kentucky Derby winner at Pimlico Race Course, trainer Doug O'Neill doesn't care much for tradition. He'd rather go with his own tested method for success. Unbeaten Nyquist arrived at Pimlico on Monday and was eased into Stall 24 of the Stakes Barn with six other horses trained by O'Neill. The Kentucky Derby winner is usually kept in highly regarded Stall 40 of the Preakness Barn, home of several Triple Crown champions, including Secretariat

and Seattle Slew. O'Neill spurned Stall 40 in 2012 with Derby winner I'll Have Another, choosing instead to keep the horse in the Stakes Barn. I'll Have Another won the Preakness, and Nyquist's handlers can only hope this horse does likewise. ''It really keeps the horses happy. It worked with I'll Have Another and we're going to do the same thing with Nyquist,'' assistant trainer Jack Sisterson said. Nyquist improved to 8-0 after winning by 1 1/4 lengths at Churchill Downs. He will seek to make in nine a row in the 1 3/16-mile Preakness on May 21. Nyquist was transported by plane from Kentucky on Monday afternoon. He CONTINUED ON PAGE 35

Chautauqua Lake Walleye season opens on Saturday, May 7th. 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. Yellow perch fishing has been very good along weed lines, with live minnows working best. The crappie bite has been tapering off, but anglers are still catching some near dawn and dusk on small jigs with minnows or small plastics. Inland Trout Fishing Most of the regions trout streams are in good fishing shape. Some of the larger creeks are still running a little high. The majority of action is still below the surface on nymphs. Small streamers or buggers also work. Productive offerings for spinning anglers include worms, salted minnows and small inline spinners. If you are a catch-and-release anglers and use spinners, it is good practice to outfit your spinners with a single hook rather than a treble hook. Western New York anglers have a variety of Wild Trout Streams and Stocked Trout Streams to choose from. In addition, Public Fishing Rights Maps are available for many of the region's best trout streams. Check out the Fishing For Stream Trout page for introductory information on trout baits, lures, fishing equipment and techniques.

SPORTS COMMENTARY, CONTINUED FROM PAGE 34 covered the final leg of the trip with a police escort from Baltimore-Washington International Airport before being led to the barn shortly after 6:30 p.m. It isn't often that the Derby winner arrives so soon in Baltimore, but that's what O'Neill and owner J. Paul Reddam did four years ago and the strategy proved sound. ''We can do anything with Nyquist,'' Sisterson said. ''It worked with I'll Have Another. So we kept kind of the same routine and got him over here early. He gets acclimated and he gets to turn over the stuff he'll run on.'' The plan is to go easy on the horse this week.

''He'll walk the next couple days and then we'll get him back to the track jogging,'' Sisterson said. ''Then he'll do like we've done his whole career. He jogs one day and then gallops the next. ''We won't change anything. Again, the beauty with Nyquist mentally is that whatever we put in front of him, he handles it. His whole career, we've kept him on the same training routine, and we're not going to change it now.'' Sisterson will oversee the care and training of Nyquist until O'Neill arrives on Thursday.
