Take the Fast Lane to homemade cooking

TWO-FOLD The Fast Lane offers goods for sale and a dining area to meet in South Dayton. community and having the family atmosphere is important to Koningisor. “I like that people have a place to go… a family atmosphere,” Koningisor said. The space, formerly Jenny Lee, is equipped with tables, chairs and bar seating for customers to enjoy their food and spend time with friends and family. When deciding to open the business, Koningisor said she sat down with her children and discussed the opportunity and what it would mean for them to be part of the journey. Koningisor said after their discussion they all decided “Let’s do it.” It was their passion for racing at Holland Speedway that the family decided on Fast Lane for the shop's moniker. After owning the Jenny Lee store once in the 1990s, Koningisor was familiar with the business and workload end
of owning and running a business. After owning the business she also worked at Jenny Lee, giving her an extra advantage in understanding all sides of the operation she was about to open. As an investment not only for herself, but for her children, Koningisor hopes to see her children own Fast Lane one day and it remains a “family” business. Eventually the store will see deep-fried food items, milk, eggs, Lotto and beer, Koningisor said, “It all takes time.” In the meantime, Koningisor said, “Town people can come and eat great food, be in great company. We are very upbeat and a happy-go-lucky place.” Fast Lane Country Store and Diner is open seven days a week: Monday through Saturday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Veterans' exemptions a go in Gowanda
By Megan Pankow-Walker
Opened early last November, Fast Lane Country Store and Diner is right in the heart of South Dayton on Park Street, and offers homemade cooking and friendly service to its patrons locally and those passing through. Owned by Noreen Koningisor along with her children, Destiny York, 18 and James Spruce, 11, the restaurant and convenience store offers soups, sandwiches, pies, a breakfast and lunch special every day and convenience items like pop, candy and gum. The store’s Facebook page (search “Fast Lane”) posts daily specials and upcoming events. On Jan. 10 there will be a Chili Cook-Off from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. inviting contestants to bring their chili to the store (sign up by Jan. 5). The public may purchase tickets for chili samplings and then vote for the best. The store also plans to participate every local event. A table at the restaurant's front was set up on Dec. 6 for visitors to sit and frost a cookie free of charge after patrons visited with Santa and attended the craft show at the fire hall down the street. “I want to do fun things like that when other events are going on,” Koningisor said.

The Gowanda Village Board approved offering property tax exemptions to military veterans at the Dec. 18 board meeting. Qualified veterans can receive a 15 percent exemption from village taxes; combat veterans, 25 percent; and disabled veterans can receive an exemption equal to the percentage of their VAapproved level of disability. The exemptions will be available beginning in fiscal year 2016. Treasurer Cynthia Schilling commented on the property tax cap override that the village board previously approved. The 2.98 percent increase in the total village tax levy will actually be only 1.07 percent. She said the upcoming village tax levy was being compared to the amount from two years ago instead of last year’s figures. Thus the village is in full compliance with Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s tax cap goals, and village taxpayers may be eligible for a small refund. Trustee Carol Sheibley attended a tax cap workshop and brought back an information packet for the board to study. The state wants the village to have a plan in place for joint projects with other municipalities that result in cost savings. The Gateway Park construction on Palmer Street was mentioned as an example of inter-municipal cooperation. The board approved a draft contract with Healthy Community Alliance for the Safe Routes to School program which will provide a 100 percent grant of $150,000 for improvements to sidewalks and crosswalks near school zones. Under the grant, the village will receive $15,000 for administrative costs, plus $135,000 in construction funding to be paid quarterly over three years. Funds proposed for the now-postponed Creekwalk from School Street to Aldrich Street will be used for sidewalk construction. The project zone includes Aldrich Street from West Main to North Water
Street, St. John and College streets, as well as extending sidewalks on Caroline Road and Allen Street from Seneca Street to Aldrich Street. Design and construction work will be done by New York State. Sheibley gave Disaster Coordinator Nick Crassi’s update on FEMA flood relief. The village is awaiting an engineering study of the Point Peter Reservoir which should arrive shortly. Once that comes and a cost estimate for repairs is received, the process of financing the project can begin, Schilling said. Money for street repairs and asphalt should be coming soon, Schilling reported. She said about $23,000 approved by FEMA will be put back into the village’s general fund. Crassi’s report said there has been “no action at all” on removing the trailers parked at the east end of Chestnut Street. They were used as temporary space for the medical center until a permanent addition was built last year. TLC Health Network, which owns the trailers, was to have them removed months ago. However, progress has been stalled by TLC’s ongoing bankruptcy proceedings. “We need to put the bankruptcy trustee on notice,” said Village Attorney Deborah Chadsey. Public Works Superintendent Jason Opferbeck said he would check the street inventory list to see if the trailers are in a public right-of-way. “We always plowed beyond the (neighbor’s) driveway,” Opferbeck said, indicating the trailers may be parked in a public roadway. Chadsey said the village should send TLC a notice that the village will remove them and sell them for scrap if TLC doesn’t move them. “Their bankruptcy hearing is winding down,” Chadsey said. “We are close to knowing if their properties are to be sold and their assets liquidated.” Clerk Kathleen Mohawk gave the November police activity report. There were 190 total calls answered, three domestic complaints, three motor vehicle
accidents, 10 arrests, 10 traffic summonses issued, and 4,229 patrol miles logged. The village received $2,897.25 from the 2013 Stop DWI program, $6,271.73 in reimbursements for new vests, and $250 in court fines from the Town of Collins. Mayor Heather McKeever commended the Gowanda police and the Southern Tier Regional Drug Task Force for recent drug arrests. McKeever said that beginning in January, the village board will hold one regular business meeting a month, on the second Tuesday, beginning at 7 p.m. The same time slot on the fourth Tuesday will be reserved for public hearings or special purpose meetings. “This gives us the ability to get more things done at the business meetings,” McKeever said, noting that some meetings have been running upwards of three hours, including public hearings and discussion. In other business, the board: • Acknowledged receipt of $89,000 in CHIPS funds for local street repairs. • Approved hiring Brianna Stelley, Jenna Stelley and Ben Tessmer as winter recreation employees on an “as needed” basis at minimum wage. • Accepted the fire protection contract with the Town of Perrysburg. • Acknowledged a donation from Edward Palen to be applied to the shade tree budget. • Authorized Village Attorney Deborah Chadsey to negotiate renewal of the cable TV contract with Time Warner Cable. The village wants a maximum renewal term of seven years, and Chadsey is asking the cable company for a definition of revenue under the contract. • Declared a 2000 International dump truck with an old plow and sander as surplus to be put out for bids on an Internet auction site. The next regular board meeting is Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2015 at 7 p.m. in the Village board room, 27 East Main Street.

Sobriety checkpoint trailer set to hit road
Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz was joined by omembers of the New York State Police and public safety officials as a new trailer to expand capacity in conducting sobriety checkpoints in the county was unveiled. The trailer, which was purchased with DWI fine revenue and will be used by Troop A of the State Police, is a 10 foot towbehind version marked with Erie County STOP-DWI and NYSP logos. “The anti-DWI partnership between Erie County and the Erie County Executive Mark C.

All Eyes
Bible Answer: “Looking unto Jesus…” (Heb. 12:2). Comment: Prince William and Kate Middleton visited NYC recently and all eyes were fixed on their every movement. Every clothing detail was noted as well as their words spoken or written. The press cameras flashed continuously during their three day visit. People waited for hours in the rain to get a glimpse of the royal pair. Does this royal attraction have any lessons for Christians today? Indeed. Do we fix our eyes on Jesus, the King of kings? Do we follow His words and keep His commandments in our daily lives? Do we wait on the Lord for His directions? Are we looking for His second coming with great anticipation? The Bible states “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith…” (He. 12:2). This looking is more than casual observation. Rather it implies seeing with understanding and paying heed to what is seen. Jesus said “If any man serve Me, let him follow Me…” (Jo. 12:26). “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (Jo. 10:27). 1Peter 2:21 states “…Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps.” How can we follow Jesus today since He no longer walks on this earth? We do it by reading the Bible and obeying His words as we make our daily decisions; by talking to God in prayer and fixing our inner thoughts on Him. Jesus said “Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul and with all thy mind” (Mt. 22:37). If you truly love God your inner eyes will be fixed on Him. This is not holding a supposed picture of Jesus in your mind. Rather it is obedience. All eyes were on the royal couple during their visit. All Christian’s heart eyes should continually be on Christ the heavenly eternal King? What do you see?

acquire the cones, signage, and other traffic control materials to be transported within it. Prior to this, traffic control services at all sobriety checkpoints in the county (including those conducted by the NYSP) had been supplied and funded solely by the Erie County STOP-DWI office. The NYSP, which has its own traffic control protocol, will now be able to conduct both law enforcement and traffic control functions at a checkpoint with no additional cost to Erie County STOP-DWI. “Having traffic control material in one location and easily deliverable to any location makes checkpoints easier to perform and more efficiently organized,” added Commissioner of Central Police Services, John Glascott. “This partnership strengthens both parties, with motorists and all county residents benefiting as potentially dangerous drivers are removed from the roads.”
significant fire hazard,” said Lorraine Carli, the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) vice president of Outreach and Advocacy. NFPA statistics show that nearly 40 percent of home fires that begin with Christmas trees occur in January. Although these fires aren’t common, when they do occur, they’re more likely to be serious. On average, one of every 40 reported home structure Christmas tree fires resulted in a death, as compared to an average of one death per 142 total reported home structure fires. While many people choose to keep their Christmas trees and holiday decorations up for a few weeks after the holidays, the continued use of seasonal lighting and dried-out trees after the holidays presents increased fire risks. “Our hope is that once people understand the fire hazards associated with Christmas trees, particularly as they continue to dry out over time, they’ll choose to remove them promptly,” said Carli. When people do dispose of their trees, NFPA recommends
using a local community’s recycling program, if available. They should not be put in the garage or left outside. In addition, NFPA offers these tips and recommendations for safely removing electrical lights and decorations from Christmas trees, and ensuring that they’re in good condition for the following year: · When unplugging electrical decorations, use the gripping area on the plugs. Never pull the cord to unplug a device from an electrical outlet. (Doing so can harm the cord’s wire and insulation, which can lead to an electrical fire or shock.) · As you put away electrical light strings, take time to inspect each for damage. Throw out light sets if they have loose connections, broken sockets, or cracked or bare wires. · Wrap each set of lights and put them in individual plastic bags, or wrap the lights around a piece of cardboard. · Store electrical decorations away from children and pets, and put them in a dry place where they won’t be damaged by water or dampness.

State 'Fracking' ban keeping rural areas poor says Young
New York State Senator Catharine Young (R,I,C- Olean) has taken exception to Governor Andrew Cuomo's recent banning of hydro-fracturing methods to retrieve natural gas locked in shale formations. Young called Cuomo’s decision to ban exploration of natural gas a “Punch in the gut to the Southern Tier.” In a formal statement responding to the governor's ban, the Senator said, “The governor has a moral obligation to explain to the people of our region how he will alleviate rural poverty.
Families desperately need jobs and economic opportunity, not government handouts. Our young people are leaving in droves because they feel they don’t have a future here. Our rural communities are dying a slow, painful, poverty-stricken death and hope is scarce. “Recovering our abundant natural resources would have brought an economic boom not seen for more than 100 years. It would have brought good paying jobs, relief for our overburdened local taxpayers, tax revenue to improve our
schools, funds to fix our local roads and bridges, and income for struggling farmers. I am already hearing from numerous local officials who are deeply upset by the Governor’s decision. With three of the counties I represent ranking among the 12 poorest in our state, today’s announcement only serves to highlight our continued economic struggle. ” According to the senator's office, thirty-two states across the nation, including California, Pennsylvania and Illinois are all safely conducting hydraulic
fracturing. Young would rather see the use of recent court decisions that allow for local control with communities deciding for themselves whether to allow drilling. She believes safeguards could have been put in place to protect water resources and people’s health. Young said, “This truly is an opportunity lost. Albany has forsaken rural New York. We urgently need hope and economic opportunity in the Southern Tier. ”

of the Panama Canal on East Coast traffic – Continental 1 is gaining attention as a critical component of Northeast, Midwest and Canadian commercial and personal transportation.” In New York State, the advocacy group plans to continue to focus on the restoration of $6.7 million in funding for the Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (SEIS) that was previously allocated, but according to the group was “swept” into the general fund during the state’s budget crisis in 2010. The SEIS is considered a necessary step toward any additional work to be done on the completion of Route 219 beyond the improvements finished in 2010, which terminate in Ashford Hollow. There is hope that a portion of the state’s $4.8 billion settle-
ment with BNP Paribas will be dedicated to strengthening the state’s infrastructure. Continental 1’s Pennsylvania and Maryland agendas focus on three tracks, namely: Collaboration with PennDOT to identify “trouble spots” related to safety or congestion along Route 219 north of I-80; Increased stakeholder engagement in communities not currently served by standing Route 219 committees; and “Staying the course” in the processes on the two separate projects – 11 miles (construction phase) and 9.5 miles (planning phase) – between Meyersdale and I-68 in Maryland. “While the mission of Continental 1 remains completion of a 1,500-mile dedicated fourlane highway from Toronto to Miami, from an advocacy
perspective that concept is a difficult one for people to wrap their head around with its size and scope, particularly in today’s transportation funding environment,” said Henry Cook, president of Somerset Trust Company and 2015 board president for Continental 1. “Our 2015 agenda reflects the next steps necessary to move the corridor close to that goal, while providing the flexibility to address immediate concerns along Route 219.” Continental 1 marks its 15th year in existence in 2015, having successfully advocated for signature projects along the Route 219 corridor, including 28 miles of four-lane, limited access highway in New York between the I-190 and Ashford Hollow, and the Bradford and Johnsonburg by-passes in Pennsylvania.

Sellers of banned toy guns under fire by Attorney General
New York State Attorney General Eric T. Schneiderman has sent cease and desist letters to several major retailers, including Wal-Mart, Amazon, K-Mart, and others for allegedly selling prohibited toy guns online to residents of New York State, and, in at least one case, in a K-Mart store in suburban Rochester. The letters, stemming from an ongoing investigation, call for retailers to immediately stop the in-store and online sale and shipment to New Yorkers of toy guns that violate New York State law pending the resolu-
tion of the Attorney General’s investigation. “When toy guns are mistaken for real guns, there can be tragic consequences,” said Schneiderman. “New York State law is clear: retailers cannot put children and law enforcement at risk by selling toy guns that are virtually indistinguishable from the real thing.” State law prohibits the sale of imitation guns in realistic colors such as black, blue, silver, or aluminum, unless it has a non-removable one-inch-wide orange stripe running down both
sides of the barrel and the front end of the barrel. One of the retailers sent a cease and desist letter, Wal-Mart, was the subject of an earlier investigation by the Attorney General’s office into in-store sales of such toys, which resulted in a court order prohibiting them from selling toy guns in New York State. It now appears that those sales have moved to the online marketplace. This new investigation reveals that many prohibited toy guns, priced from less than $10 to as much as several hundred dollars, can
be easily purchased online and shipped into the state. The recent investigation also uncovered that at least one retailer is selling illegal toy guns in its stores. According to the Attorney General's office, since 1997, at least four individuals have been killed in the state, and one child seriously wounded, when law enforcement officers mistook toy guns for real guns. To report the sale of illegal toy guns, consumers are encouraged to contact Attorney General Schneiderman’s consumer help line at (800) 771-7755.

Food pantry gives families a holiday boost pecting 100 families on this day. Woyton announced to the group that a donation from the Salvation Army allowed for the purchase of many of the presents on hand. “We also received donations from the churches in the area,� Woyton added. Ruth Bucki serves as Treasurer for the Eden unit of the Salvation Army and today, she was also helping distribute food. “We collected about $3,000 this year through our kettle drive,� said Bucki. “We had to send that money to Syracuse, but we requested funding for the pantry and it received $1,200.� Don and Rosella Schasel are two of the most public faces in the organization.

Twice each month, the volunteers of the Eden-North Collins Food Pantry, fill tables with a variety of fresh, canned and packaged foods for those who need a little help. But at Christmas time, the pantry tries to make the distribution a more special event. And on Dec. 17, the Holy Spirit Parish Hall in North Collins was abuzz with volunteers making final preparations. The Pantry serves those in need in the two towns it takes its name from, along with portions of the towns of Brant and Collins. Tables filled the hall, almost equally divided in two with one side stocked with fresh produce and meats along with dry and canned goods, the other, filled with mystery packaged presents ready for clients. Maureen Woyton of the Pantry staff, was checking lists for expected clients that day. “We handed out wish lists to our clients at our last distribution and tried to match up the gifts,� Woyton said. She informed that clients would receive a number that day with which they could claim the gift provided just for them. The Pantry has been in existence for over 15 years now, first housed at the Eden United Methodist Church. Many of the earliest volunteers still help on distribution days, including

Doris Hadley was helping distribute food and spoke of her involvement. “Well, when your sister is the pastor at the church where the pantry started, you really don't have a choice,� she joked. However, Doris' involvement has gotten deeper as well. “I'm a member of the Eden Police Group,� she said, “and when we were looking for a group to donate to, we chose
this pantry.� That involvement was mirrored by Joan Warner who said, “This is a great place. I volunteered at the old place for seven years. I've been doing this for fifteen years now.� Woyton said that 106 families are currently registered with the food pantry and regular semi-monthly distributions find an average of 60-65 families seeking a little help.

Erie County parks ready for winter
The Erie County Department of Parks, Recreation & Forestry is prepared to offer a full slate of family-friendly winter activities at county parks once measurable snow arrives. Activities including sledding, ice skating, cross-country and downhill skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and tobogganing can be enjoyed in various Erie County parks. “Our Erie County parks system has a lot to offer year-round, and winter is a great season to be outside enjoying time with family and friends in our beautiful natural settings,” said Erie County Executive Mark C. Poloncarz. Winter sports offerings are updated daily at http://www2. erie.gov/parks/ and it is recom-
mended to check the website and weather conditions before heading to the Park. Groomed cross-country skiing at Grover Cleveland golf course is a new offering this year, with snowmobiles standing by to groom the course. When the weather permits, sledding will be available at six parks (Akron Falls, Chestnut Ridge, Como Lake, Ellicott Creek, Elma Meadows, and Sprague Brook), ice skating at two (Akron Falls and Como Lake), ungroomed cross-country skiing at eight parks (Akron Falls, Chestnut Ridge, Como Lake, Ellicott Creek, Elma Meadows, Emery, Forestry, and Sprague Brook), groomed cross-country skiing at three parks (Elma Meadows, Grover Cleveland, Sprague
Brook), downhill skiing at Emery, snowboarding at six parks (Akron Falls, Chestnut Ridge, Ellicott Creek, Elma Meadows, Emery, and Sprague Brook), snowshoeing at all Erie County parks, and tobogganing at Chestnut Ridge. Said Commissioner of Parks, Recreation & Forestry Troy P. Schinzel. “Once the snow is here and we get a good freeze, there will be plenty of winter fun to go around.” When the ground is frozen and there is at least six inches of snow, snowmobile trails will also open in select Erie County parks. More information can be found at: www.wnysnowtrails. com/ .
Burstein says eCigarettes can be fatal to children Dr. Gale Burstein, Erie County Commissioner of Health, reminds residents to be vigilant should family members, guests or visitors use eCigarettes. eCigarettes or “vaping” uses bottles or vials of liquid nicotine. The vials can be attractive to children with their bright colors and fragrant flavors that sound like candy: chocolate, butterscotch, bubble gum, strawberry, watermelon, grape and pineapple to name just a few. These “e-liquids” or “e-juices” are powerful neurotoxins. Tiny amounts, whether ingested or absorbed through the skin, can cause vomiting and seizures and even be lethal. Burstein continued: “Parents need to be aware that friends or

ATTRACTIVE-The vials holding liquid nicotine are colorful and can prove enticing to children and pets. family that they visit may be using eCigarettes that are filled with liquid nicotine. A teaspoon of even highly diluted e-liquid or e-juice can kill a small child. Many of the accidental poisonings that have been reported in the United States have been traced to the problem of adults being unaware of the risks of having these liquids near children and being careless with control of the vials of liquid nicotine. Tragically, the death in Fort Plain, N.Y. of a one-year old just weeks ago has been attributed to the ingestion of liquid nicotine.” In addition, unlike nicotine gums and patches, e-cigarettes and their ingredients are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration at this time. Until proposed FDA regulations go into effect, precautions like labeling and child-proofing liq-
uid containers are not required. The nicotine levels in e-liquids can vary with the majority at between 1.8% and 2.4%. At this level of concentration, it will cause sickness in a child, but rarely death. However higher concentrations, such as 7.2% or 10%, are widely available on the Internet. As quoted in a New York Times article “Selling a Poison by the Barrel: Liquid Nicotine for E-Cigarettes” (Matt Richtel, March 23, 2014) “A lethal dose at such levels would take “less than a tablespoon,” according to Dr. Lee Cantrell, director of the San Diego division of the California Poison Control System and a professor of pharmacy at the University of California, San Francisco. “Not just a kid. One tablespoon could kill an adult,” he said.

Cattaraugus-Little Valley/Pine Valley grappler Reggie Goodmote, right, takes on Grand Island’s Ben Wright in a 195-pound match at the Dunkirk Duals Dec. 29. Goodmote scored a key win in the Timberwolves’ win over Southwestern back on Dec. 16.
Timberwolves grapplers best perennial power By Mark Benton SPORTS REPORTER
By the narrowest of margins, the Cattaraugus-
Little Valley/Pine Valley varsity boys wrestling team defeated Southwestern by a score of 40-39 on Dec. 16 inside the Cattaraugus-Little Valley gymnasium. It was the first dual meet win of the season for the Timberwolves. “Ron Howard picked up his first-ever varsity win and Adolf Zollinger recorded his
first win of the season by a pin,”Timberwolves coach Sam Grey said follow the bout with one of the perennila powers of the southern tier wrestling circuit. “Dylan Rhinehart earned two back points in the last 20 seconds of his match to win a major decision that gave us the lead.” However, it was Randy Grey’s second win of the
season that guaranteed the victory for Catt.-LV/ PV. Other important wins came from Alex Kelly, his eighth win of the season, Reggie Goodemote’s fourth win of the year and Justin Dickenson’s third win of the season. There was also a double forfeit in the 99-pound weight class. With an exciting win against an established wrestling program like
Southwestern, the Timberwolves moved on to the Southern Tier Holiday Classic Tournament that was held on Dec. 19 and 20. Catt.-LV/PV had four wrestlers place in the top four to earn their team valuable points. “Alex Kelly won the championship in the 182-pound division with a 6-1 decision over Fredonia’s Steve Mignoli,”
according to Rex Brown, one of the Timberwolves co-coaches. “He also defeated Adam Gullo from Jamestown in the semifinals with a pin at 2:16.” Kelly had been the most valuable wrestler in the Catt.LV/PV program so far this season.

Kruszka tops Gowanda XC athletes that Area sports report earned all-star honors for strong year By Mark Benton SPORTS REPORTER
By Mark Benton SPORTS REPORTER
In what turned out to be another banner season for both the boys and girls cross country teams at Gowanda Central School, several individuals were recently awarded with all-star honors. For the boys team, which was the fourth-ranked small school in Western New York this past season, the fruits of labor were plentiful.

BILL WENDE/SECTION6RUNS.COM
Matt Kruszka was named the CCAA large school division’s Runner of the Year.
• The Silver Creek High School varsity boys basketball Team lost its first game of season to Nichols School by a score of 59-43. This matchup was part of the AdPro Public/ Private School Challenge that was played at St. Joseph’s Collegiate Institute in Kenmore on December 19. The Black Knights had won their previous two games to start the 2014-15 season. Silver Creek stayed close to the Western New York No. 3 ranked large school in the first half and only trailed by four points at intermission.However, the Vikings outscored the Black Knights 24-9 in the third quarter and never looked back. Trevon Thompson led Silver Creek in scoring with 14 points. Teammate Bill Brooks chipped with 10 tallies.
• The Cattaraugus-Little Valley varsity boys basketball team could not keep up with Randolph and lost to the Cardinals, 80-45. The game was played on the Timberwolves’ home court. Catt.-Little Valley seniors Darnell Pritchard and DJ Stevens led their team in scoring with 13 and 10 points, respectively. The Timberwolves record fell to 1-5 heading into the Christmas recess. • Adrian Galloway found the scoring column in Immaculata’s 49-39 win over Niagara Catholic. Sara Kwiatkowski netted six points in Springville’s 45-38 win over Pioneer to push the Griffins’ season record to 4-1. Galloway and Kwiatkowski were 2012 graduates of St. Joseph School in Gowanda.

Lady Panthers came close to program records “XC” from page B1 A total of eight Panther long distance runners received recognition. Topping the list was sophomore Matt Kruszka. He was voted “Runner of the Year” for the CCAA large school division. Kruszka qualified and ran in the New York State Championship meet this past fall for the second consecutive season. “Going to the State meet two years in a row was awesome,” Kruszka said. “We should do very well again next year as a team.” M a t t ’s b r o t h e r, J o e Kruszka, was voted onto the first all-star team. The junior was Gowanda’s second-best runner. His absence in one of two Panther home meets this past fall was noted as Gowanda lost to two schools by a small margin. Classmate Ian Warrior also received a first team selection. Warrior and both of the Kruszka’s will return next fall to give Gowanda a trio of excellent runners. Second team honors went to junior Ben Myzel. Zack Bogardus, Lyle Warrior, Gavin Kennedy and Ryan Monat received honorable mentions. The Lady Panthers re-
ceived four first team all-star selections. Leading the way was senior and MVP Colleen Steward. She was a first team all-star. “Colleen finished fifth at the county meet and also at the sectional meet” head coach Peter Palmer noted. “She continued to improve as the season progressed.” Joining Steward on the first team were sophomores Lexi Latona and Nina Roman, plus junior Katelyn Jaroszewski. Katelynne Heary received honorable mention status. “I was amazed at how well the girls did this past season with seven out of 12 girls lost to graduation from the previous year,” Palmer said. “With five first-year runners in the program, we finished with a record of 22-6, just slightly behind the school record (25-2) that was set the previous season.” The co-ed cross country program at Gowanda Central School has been one of the most consistent programs for the Panthers over the past decade. With almost everyone returning, both teams will be in the hunt for a championship next October.
History of Coach Irving Halstead By Mark Benton SPORTS REPORTER
There have been many coaches who have graced the gymnasium and/or athletic fields at Gowanda High School over the past 115 years. Several have led the Blue and White to sectional and conference championships. Others were very good teachers of the sport they coached and good athletes themselves. Irving Halstead was all of the above. Halstead came to Gowanda at the beginning of the 194344 school year. He was hired to fill the vacancy left by Howard Hillis, who went off to fight in World War II. Like Hillis, Halstead would teach physical education and be the
school’s head varsity football, basketball and baseball coach. Two of the three sports that he guided would become championship-caliber teams during his three-year stint at GHS. It is fair to say that Halstead had little interest in or knowledge of football. The program that Hillis led to the 1941 Southwestern Conference championship and had posted a winning record in seven of the previous eight seasons was no more than a glorified intramural team during World War II. Under Halstead, the Blue and White barely managed to win a game in all three years that he stood in for Hillis. However, Halstead made his mark as the school’s mentor in basketball and baseball. For the three seasons that Halstead coached the basketball team,
Gowanda’s overall record was 45-12. His 1945-46 team posted a final mark of 18-2. Hillis returned from the War the following season and Gowanda went undefeated. They also won the Section VI title. Former player Ed Urbank stated that it was Halstead who put the wheels in motion for that undefeated team in 1946-47 even though he had moved on from the district at that time. In the spring of 1944, Halstead took over the varsity baseball program, now in its’ third year after a 15-year hiatus. Behind the pitching of Bill Edwards and Dick Rooney, Gowanda posted its only undefeated baseball season in school history by winning all nine of its scheduled games. Edwards had moved to Gowanda from Eden
because he wanted to play for Halstead. Rooney, who resides in California, said Halstead was an “excellent coach and well respected.” Gowanda’s overall record in baseball during Halstead’s three year reign was 24-5. When World War II ended, the United States troops that included Hillis returned home. Hillis was re-instated back into his coaching and teaching positions. Halstead moved to the White Plains area and coached several more championship teams. He also signed a major league baseball contract with the Brooklyn Dodgers and played a few years for their minor league affiliate in New Orleans. Halstead passed away while living in Florida a few years ago. He was 92 years old at the time of his death.

Pine Valley girls basketball notches first win of season By Mark Benton SPORTS REPORTER
The Pine Valley High School girls varsity basketball team won its first game in four tries with a come-frombehind victory over Clymer by a score of 44-33. The game was played on Dec. 17 on the Panthers’ home court. Things did not start out well for coach Bryelle Cortright’s team as the Panthers fell behind 13-1 at the end of the first quarter. The Lady Panthers did, however, manage to make the proper adjustments in the second
frame to stage a comeback by outscoring the visiting Pirates 17-11. That resurgence cut the deficit to just six points as both teams headed to their respective locker rooms for intermission. “We got down early in the game and had to battle back.” “We were only down by six points at the half,” Cortright stated. Pine Valley then came out in the third quarter and its defense went to work. The team did not allow Clymer to score any points while the Panthers netted 12 points to take their own six-point lead after three periods of play.
“We took control in the third quarter with a 12-0 run,” Cortright said. “I was very impressed with our refuse-to-lose attitude and defensive intensity.” With the score 30-24 in the Lady Panthers’ favor, they continued to play well over the final eight minutes of the game. The end result was an 11-point victory. Pine Valley’s Jamie Wilcox was the game’s leading scorer with 13 points. Alex Bentham was next in line with nine tallies. She was a perfect 7 for 7 from the charity stripe. Although Cortright was pleased with the outcome
of her team’s first win in the 2014-15 season, she was concerned with the 22 turnovers her players committed. “We had too many unforced errors,” she said. Pine Valley will have to take care of the ball in upcoming games if it is going to be successful according to Cortright. Pine Valley will host backto-back games in its gym following the Christmas recess. Forestville will visit on Monday, Jan. 5. One week later, North Collins will venture down from Erie County to take on the Lady Panthers. The tip-off for both games is slated for 7:30 p.m.

I have a very old Boston Rocking chair that was passed on to me by my grandparents. Can you please give me a brief history of this type of chair? Thank you in advance for the information. I enjoy your column. K.S. North Collins, NY The Boston rocker originated in 1820 in the Boston, Massachusetts and surrounding New England area. This American form of furniture resembles a Windsor chair with turned wooden spools for the back support, a seat with curved wood in the back, and a scrolled top back piece. Is a Buddy L metal delivery van worth anything? The condition is good and all the wheels move. There is a number 803 on the bottom of it. This is the type that a child would sit on and ride. Thank you. C.H. Gowanda, NY Manufactured between 1945 and 1948, your 23” long
Buddy L Deluxe Rider Delivery Truck warrants an approximate value of $550.00 in the described working condition. The Buddy L company was started in 1921 by Fred Lundahl who ran the Moline Pressed Steel Company in Illinois. At that time, all the toys manufactured by the company were pressed steel which were strong enough to support a rider. The company was named after Lundahl’s son Buddy. I wanted to ask you about a Christmas ornament that I have. It is not very old but I know it is a collectible. It was made by Hallmark and is part of the Nostalgia Collection. It is a rocking horse ornament and is in brand new condition. What value would this have? W.I. South Dayton, NY In excellent condition, the Hallmark Rocking Horse Ornament in your possession has a value of $165.00 in today’s market. This 1975 collectible may not be very old, but it is
a highly sought after ornament by collectors. I don’t remember the exact year, but somewhere around the mid 1950s I was given a metal Jackie Gleason toy bus for Chanukah. I still have this bus and it is in very good condition. It says Honeymooners’ Special on it. What is it worth? Thank you. M.T. Hamburg, NY Manufactured in 1955 by Wolverine in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the 12” by 5” tin lithographed Jackie Gleason Bus has a value of $450.00 $480.00 in very good working condition. Wolverine was most known for their “Sandy Andy” toys. • • • Jeffrey Furash has over 35 years experience in the field of antiques and collectibles.

VILLAGE CHRISTMAS TREE – This undated photo shows the Christmas tree that graced the Gowanda village square many years ago. One has to wonder how it stayed upright and where the electric power came from to keep the lights and star illuminated. The iron bridge (18891962) is visible at left and Gene Babinger’s service station on South Water Street is on the right.
Off-beat-winter sports Winter sports like skiing anWhile skiing and snowboarding may dominate the outdoor winter sports landscape, there are plenty of off-the-radar outdoor sports that are growing in popularity among people looking for something a little different. Snowkiting Snowkiting has found a fan base among people who enjoy kiteboarding when the weather is warm. Snowkiters use kite power to glide across the
snow or ice. Foil kites once dominated the snowkiting landscape, but many snowkiters now prefer inflatable kites. Snowkiting can be very difficult to master. Fat biking For athletes who love riding bikes but have had to put their bikes in the garage once the temperatures dip there are Fat bikes. Similar to traditional bicycles, but with oversized tires and wider rims that make it possible for the bikes to
handle unstable terrain, even when covered in snow. Ice boating Ice boating is a great way to fulfill a winter fix for sailing. Similar to sailboats, they are typically fitted with runners, also called skates, or skis and designed to run over frozen waters instead of through water. Ice boats can sail across ice-covered surfaces at high speeds, and that can make already cold conditions even colder for ice boat sailors.

Bingo celebrates birthday ‘Small Camera Types’ is Topic of Photo Club number combinations dwindled. By the time the task was completed, Professor Leffler had gone insane. By 1934, an estimated 10,000 bingo games were played each week in churches and elsewhere across North America. Today it is estimated that more than $90 million is spent each week on bingo in North America. Online bingo enables people to play bingo on their computers, phones and tablets.

The game eventually became popular in France, Germany and North America. In the United States, players played their own variation of the lotto game featuring numbered cards and beans.
