Celina Cass’s death ruled a homicide BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
CONCORD — The suspicious death of an 11-year-old Stewartstown girl last month has been officially ruled a homicide by the state medical examiner’s office, but that same agency is declining to release how the child died. “After further investigation and receiving toxicology results, Deputy Chief Medical Examiner Jennie V. Duval, M.D., has ruled Celina Cass’s manner of death to be a homicide,” according to a Thursday afternoon press release from the Attorney General’s office. “While Dr. Duval has also determined the cause of death of Celina Cass, that result is not being made public at this juncture.” The statement goes on to say that investigators believe that to release their findings would have a negative impact on the “integrity of the investigation,” which is ongoing. Cass was reported missing on July 26, after last being seen at her computer the prior evening. Her stepfather, Wendell Noyes, reported her missing the next
morning. A week later, her body was found nearby in the Connecticut River. The disappearance of the girl triggered a massive search effort with the F.B.I., state and local police, Fish and Game, local fire departments, U.S. Border Patrol, and volunteers searching the area. The search effort received national attention and the F.B.I. posted a $25,000 reward for information about her whereabouts and the arrest and prosecution of a suspect. Although not vocal during the initial stages of the investigation, Cass’s mother, Louisa, recently gave an emotional interview to WMUR. In that interview, Louisa told the news organization that she and Noyes separated shortly after Celina’s body was discovered. According to a story posted on WMUR.com, Noyes’ family members said he suffered a mental breakdown and is receiving care in Berlin. No suspects have yet been named in this case and the investigation remains active.
Jolbert Street fire under investigation by authorities BERLIN — A small fire on a kitchen stove drew plenty of attention Thursday morning, especially since that stove is in an unoccupied home on Jolbert Street. Fire crews were called to 118 Jolbert at 8:32 a.m. on Sept. 22, after neighbors heard smoke detectors sounding in the residence next door. According to Fire Chief Randy Trull, the neighbors who called in the alarm, said the most recent tenants had vacated the location a week or so ago. Trull said that when firefighters arrived they witnessed smoke see FIRE page 5

Randolph open to change in area education administration BY GAIL SCOTT THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
RANDOLPH—A straw poll at the end of the discussion on Wednesday night found that just under 50 percent of those in attendance favor combining the area’s two school administrative units, high schools and middle schools, while leaving elementary schools as they are. Of Randolph’s approximately 275 voting age population, 23 turned out for the Randolph session of the regional forums on the future of education in the Androscog-
gin Valley that are in the process of being held from Shelburne to Errol. Faced with dwindling enrollments and dwindling finances, area school leaders hope that these forums, funded by a $15,000 grant from the Neil and LouiseTillotson Fund, will help them gauge the climate for change in area education. Historically such discussions have gone nowhere, but the world is a different place now. As School Administrative Unit Supersee RANDOLPH page 8
NH investors to buy Groveton mill BY MELISSA GRIMA THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
Neighbors were able to quickly raise an alarm for a small fire in this vacant home on Jolbert Street thanks to working smoke detectors that could be heard outside the residence. The fire is under investigation by state and local authorities.
GROVETON — A group of Northern NH businessmen have signed an agreement to purchase the former Wausau and Groveton Paper Board mill. Ken Miller, Executive Vice President of NJ-based Perry Videx, the company that currently owns the property, confirmed the “property is under agreement of sale.” Miller said he could not disclose the names of the potential purchasers, but
did say that they were New Hampshire businessmen and guessed that they plan to use the property for multiple business ventures. Miller explained that the agreement was signed on Monday, Sept. 19 and the buyers have approximately two months to complete their due diligence. The mill site has been vacant since 2007.

(NY Times) — Singlesex education is ineffective, misguided and may actually increase gender stereotyping, a team of psychologists asserts in a paper to be published Friday. The report, “The Pseudoscience of Single Sex Schooling,” to be published in Science magazine by eight social scientists who are founders of the nonprofit American Council for CoEducational Schooling, is likely to ignite a new round of debate and legal wrangling about the effects of single-sex education. It asserts that “sex-segregated education is deeply misguided and often justified by weak, cherry-picked or misconstrued scientific claims rather than by valid scientific evidence.” But the strongest argument against single-sex education, the article said, is that it reduces boys’ and girls’ opportunities to work together, and reinforces sex stereotypes. “Boys who spend more time with other boys become increasingly aggressive,” the article said. “Similarly, girls who spend more time with other girls become more sextyped.” The lead author, Diane F. Halpern, is a past president of the American Psychological Association who holds a named chair in psychology at Claremont McKenna College in California.

records are from 1886 to present
In death-penalty debate, Davis execution offers little closure (NY Times) — After decades of litigation, the final legal ruling allowing the execution of Troy Davis was a one-sentence order from the United States Supreme Court so terse that it could have fit neatly into a Twitter message with room to spare. But it is hardly the last word on the case, or in the national debate over the death penalty. The finality of Mr. Davis’s
sentence, and the outpouring of protest worldwide, leaves in its wake more than its share of questions — some that go beyond the facts of the case to encompass fundamental issues relating to capital punishment itself. Because the Savannah police officer he was convicted of killing in 1989, Mark MacPhail, was white and Davis was black, the progress of Davis’s case
House Republicans regroup after vote blocks spending bill
WASHINGTON (NY Times) — House Republicans struggled on Thursday morning to find a way to pass legislation to fund the government through mid-November and provide assistance to natural disaster victims, following an embarrassing defeat of a bill that would have offset disaster relief with cuts in other programs. The House took emergency steps to clear the way for a quick vote on a new measure. It was unclear whether House leaders would attempt to win over more Republicans, many of whom want even more short-term cuts in spending than those agreed to last summer as part of a deal to lift the debt ceiling, or more Democrats, who want even higher levels of disaster aid without the spending cuts to pay for it. With Congress scheduled to be in recess next week and financing for the entire federal government due to expire Sept. 30, the leadership was searching for a way to push a bill to the president’s desk even as Senate Democrats made clear that they did not intend to pass a bill without including money for the Federal Emergency Management Agency than proposed by the House.
over two decades widened fault lines on the death penalty and, in particular, over the question of whether a black person in the South could be guaranteed the same justice as a white one. The nature of those doubts and the arguments for Davis’s innocence — which one judge dismissed as “smoke and mirrors” — could be, and will be, debated endlessly.
Wall Street down over 3 percent (NY Times) — A day after the Federal Reserve announced another measure to stimulate the economy, global financial markets on Thursday declined steeply as pessimism about the outlook for the economies of the United States and Europe was deepened by weak data and the Fed’s own grim assessment. The downcast mood appeared to be reflected across the board. Stocks fell in Asia, Europe and on Wall Street, where equities were down more than 3 percent as the market closed. Bond prices soared for a fifth consecutive trading session, pushing the United States benchmark yield to new lows. Com-

N.H. looks at how to cut more BY TOM FAHEY THE UNON LEADER
CONCORD — House members spent more than two hours Wednesday discussing the need for $35 million in budget cuts, but the Senate is not nearly as interested. A recent federal administrative decision requires the state to pay back $35 million in Medicaid funding from 2004. The state has asked the federal panel to reconsider the order, but several witnesses at House Finance said they do not expect any change. Payment would be due before July 2012. Speaker of the House William O’Brien, R-Mont Vernon, wants a plan for cuts in place within two weeks. Tax hikes or fee increases are out of the question, he said. The full House will vote on the plan Oct. 12. No matter how quickly the House acts, the Senate will not consider the proposed cuts until January, since Senate President Peter Bragdon has
no plans to bring the Senate back this year. He and Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Morse, R-Salem, said they think it is Gov. John Lynch’s job to solve the problem, with help from Health and Human Services Commissioner Nicholas Toumpas. Morse said a governor’s job is to manage a budget with the resources he has. The Medicaid issue involves less than 1 percent of state revenues over the next two years, he said. “I think the prudent thing to do for state government is to fight Washington on this issue,” Morse said. Lynch and Toumpas, he said, “need to get this done at their level.” Lynch spokesman Colin Manning said the state’s request for reconsideration is a first step. “That’s something we continue to work on. Obviously, should there be a decision rendered that is adverse to the state, the governor will be closely working with the Legislature to address the $35 million,” he said.

AED fundraiser was a huge success To the editor: We wanted to publicly thank all participants in our recent fundraiser for an AED for Promenade Field. It was a huge success thanks to all of you! We sold 141 pizzas, which is a contribution of $705 made possible by our wonderful customers and staff. We also were handed numerous cash donations during the week as well as the day of the event. We as a community were able to collect close to $1,00 just from this one fundraising event! We were contacted by a concerned parent and friend and thought the idea was not only exceptional but also necessary. With the backing of the parents, friends, kids, customers and community not only from Gorham but also the surrounding towns
we achieved our goal. We also want to send out a special thank you to the previous owners, Lenny and Carol LaCroix for volunteering their time and hard work for this cause. We could not have done it without their assistance or the dedication of our amazing staff! We do not know many businesses that can say their customers were willing to wait two hours for a pizza, which is exactly what they did! Thank you so much for your patience and understanding during this event. In such a depressed economy and negative state of affairs this five hour window of time proved that united any goal can not only be attained but amazing things can happen by extraordinary people.

The Hype And The Reality The pitchers and catchers came first, although some infielders and outfielders were already honing their skills for what was to be greatest Boston Red Sox team ever to take the field. How could it not be? Hadn’t General Manager Theo Epstein spent over a quarter of a billion dollars of John Henry’s money on two All-Star players to add to an already potent line-up that was regularly at the top or near to it in most of the league’s offensive categories? They had three top of the rotation starters that were the equal of any team’s top three, and, given their potent line-up, the fourth and fifth starters should do just fine, as well. Spring was in the air, the Boston Red Sox were in their training camp, a third World Series win was all but assured, and all was right with the world. Well, at least the baseball world. But all the hype ends when the first pitches of the now-for-real 162-game season are thrown. Every pitch thrown matters. Every swing of the bat matters. Every Won or Lost mark on a team’s record matters. Now, as football coach great Bill Parcells used to say, “You are what your record says you are.” Now, in the first week of the new baseball season, it looked as though the Boston Red Sox would lose 100 games, instead of winning 100. Already in Red Sox Nation, there were those looking for someone to blame. Bad times must always be someone’s fault. Whose head should roll? But then the Sox ship righted itself, and the team began to live up to its springtime promise. Especially satisfying was the Red Sox domination of the hated New York Yankees. Yes, the always pesky Tampa Bay Rays were once again proving to be a thorn in their sides, but the Rays would surely fade. The American League East banner would be flown in Boston. And, for a time, it looked as though it would. At one time, Boston boasted three legitimate Most Valuable Player Award candidate’s in its line-up, including a sud-
denly power-hitting center fielder Jacoby Ellsbury as its lead-off man. For a time, the team was able to weather some of the injuries that were beginning to rear their ugly heads. Number three starter Clay Bucholtz went down. He would be lost for most, if not all, of the remaining months of the season. J. D. Drew, a steady, if unspectacular, player was lost for the season. Third baseman Kevin Youkilis’ Dirt-Dog-style of play began to take its toll on his body, and both his offense and defense faltered as a result. Carl Crawford, one half of the one quarter of a billion dollar All-Star additions to the Red Sox roster showed only occasional flashes of his multi-talented abilities. Fourth and fifth starters, John Lackey and Tim Wakefield were only occasionally effective, and the bullpen had to be called on far too often. September has seen an almost complete breakdown in all phases of the game. Friendly Fenway is no longer friendly, and now the team must finish its season on the road. At the moment, the New York Yankees, who have won the American League East banner, are the best friends the Red Sox have. They are able to beat the Tampa Rays, while the Red Sox are not. So the Sox still have a chance to win the Wild Card and make the league’s playoffs.Will it matter? Good question. Unless they can turn their dismal play of the last few weeks around, it’s hard to see them getting beyond the first round. Who, for example, will be their number 3 starter? Does the bullpen have enough left to be effective? What has happened to their defense of late?Perhaps, though, the bats will suddenly come alive and carry the day. They have won coming in by the backdoor before. And, in a short series, anything is possible. First, though, they have to get in through the backdoor. (Ithaca Bound is the pen name of Dick Conway.

As well as; local law enforcement agencies, the Berlin Daily Sun for donating a free ad and Larry Barker of the UNH Cooperative Extension. The CAC-CC is a not-for profit community partnership dedicated to the investigation, prosecution and treatment of child victims
of crime. The CAC-CC brings together all pieces of a multi-disciplinary team to one child friendly, neutral location so that one interview can be conducted and all relevant parties are represented and working together from day one of the investigation. Through the work of the CAC-CC, allegations of physical and sexual abuse are more thoroughly investigated, trauma experienced by children is reduced, parents are empowered to protect their children and children are connected to the support services they need. In addition, prosecution rates are increased by 40 percent when the investigation is facilitated by the CAC-CC. For more information you can find us on Facebook at Child Advocacy Center of Coos County or at nhncac.org. Finally, the Child Advocacy Center would also like to thank all of Coos County for supporting the agency during this extremely successful fundraiser. The CAC-CC would not be in existence today if it were not for the continued support of our public partners who help support us in our mission of protecting the children of Coos County.

intendent Paul Bousquet explained at the close of the meeting, “When you starting talking about change, people say, “But my kids went to Berlin or my kids went to Gorham and (that was fine). But the kids in five years may not have the opportunities that yours did, so let’s talk about it. . . . If we find out the communities want us to try something different, we can look at the laws and the student information and we can move from there. That is the conversation that this (forum) has initiated. . . . Where this will go, I have no idea, but at least we are having this conversation. . . I don’t have the answers. No one does. But we want to make sure our kids can compete, be members of society who can contribute and do great things, but if we keep shrinking, for whatever reason, I still want my kids to have the programming that they deserve from pre-k to 16 (including post-high school).” Indeed, as Cathy McDowell suggested during the meeting’s discussions, the area education discussion should include student education from pre-K to that provided at the White Mountain Community College, but that, suggested Bousquet, is putting the cart before the horse. “When I sat down and wrote this grant,” Bousquet said, “the object was to have this conversation, to go ahead and ask about things that people don’t want to talk about. They want things to stay the same. But I tell you this: we have two classrooms that are closed this year, 13 teachers (in Berlin; 5 teachers, three full-time paraprofessionals in Gorham) were let go, because of a lack of students and a lack of money. If my kids can’t have calculus, how do we get it so
my kids can have calculus and a shot at looking at Dartmouth College, if they want to. “Tell us what your ideas are,” he said. The straw poll, presenting previously prepared alternatives, was presented to the group at the end of the meeting after intensive small group discussions focused on the pros and cons of consolidation in area education. The poll did not necessarily reflect the discussion points, but presented ten alternatives. * The first was to do nothing and got no votes. * The second was to keep the two area SAUs (20 for Gorham, Randolph, Shelburne, Milan, Errol; 3 in Berlin), but consolidate more services. Two voters chose this alternative. * The third was to combine the SAUs but keep the schools the same, which got one vote. * The fourth was to keep the status quo for the elementary schools and SAUs * The fifth was to keep the SAUs and k-8 the same but combine the high schools, which got three votes. * The sixth was to combine the SAUs and the high and middle schools but keep the status quo for elementary schools, which got eleven votes. * The seventh was undecided which got one vote. * The eighth was to create a study group which got no votes. * The ninth was to adjust elementary schools by class size which got no votes. * The tenth was to combine the SAUs and have one high school, one middle school and open enrollment at the elementary schools which got three votes. The discussion groups made a variety of pro and con points about the question see RANDOLPH page 9

of consolidation. On the con side, groups pointed out that Gorham and Berlin have different governmental bodies which affect school administration: Gorham has an elected school board; Berlin has a school board but is governed by the city council. Travel distance was another issue as was cultural identity. “If you stay separate, you keep the identity you have now,” remarked Bill Demers. “That was a big deal when I was a kid.” Sarah Parlett remarked that she had heard that there seemed to be a fear that Gorham would just become a suburb of Berlin as opposed to being a unique, separate town. The separate schools seem to promise smaller classes and better individual attention, four of the discussion groups suggested. One of the groups assumed that there were more special needs students in Berlin so that students without special needs would have less attention … or, put another way, that there is a potential for better quality education where there are fewer special needs students. At this point in the discussion, Bob Potter remarked that the group didn’t know any facts. “Is there anything up there (on the list being recorded by Bousquet on a flip chart) that doesn’t need more research?” Potter asked. Demers said that his group had pointed out that Gorham has been carefully investing in its schools. “If you combine,” he asked, “would that process start all over again?” McDowell remarked that her group had discussed the question of whether
or not the federal prison would open. “What if we make this big change and the prison comes in and the economy changes. There is uncertainty about the future. Maybe it would be better to wait a little while,” she said her group had mentioned as a con. Jean Malick said her group had remarked that Berlin and Errol have 40 percent of their students on free or reduced meals while Gorham and Milan have 20 percent. “I don’t know if that means that they have more low income people or lower property taxes, but there is a big discrepancy there,” she said, her group having speculated whether or not that made a difference. Bousquet responded that for years the SAU 20 had 18 to 19 percent but that number had shot up to 27 percent “almost overnight.” Sarah Parlett remarked that she would like more information. “We’ve mentioned the cost per student (note: $13,000 to $14,000 in the area as opposed to $12,000 statewide average—these figures exclude the cost of special education tuitions) and buildings. If we merged, would there be an impact on any of the town’s tax bases?” she asked, but got no answer. Martha Sappington said that her group had discussed the “SINI” (School In Need of Improvement) and “DINI” (District In Need of Improvement) and what might that mean for consolidation. These are No Child Left Behind designations. It was said that Berlin is a DINI. On the pro side, groups noted a number of points. Four of the groups thought students see RANDOLPH page 10

RANDOLPH from page 9
would have a wider choice of courses, sports and non-sport activities. All groups noted the probable cost savings of consolidating the schools’ administrations, in addition to a possible benefit of greater consistency in area education. Another group noted that there would be more flexibility in institutional space and a concentration of energy costs. Architect Tim Sappington pointed out that there would be a more efficient use of space. Guy Stever noted the advantage of bringing the students in the two towns together.
Another group noted the advantage of combining technology resources, both for student education and for following the progress of all students. Betsy Hess said her group had noted that special education could be better targeted. Groups of similar students could work together in one place which would lead to a better use of specialized staff. Hess also remarked that a consolidated district might be in better position to take advantage of new technologies and to have a grant writer to discover new benefits for area education—a comment echoed by Martha Sappingsee RANDOLPH page 11

who pointed out that Gorham had lost its Title One services (note: Title One is federal financial aid to improve “the academic achievement of the disadvantaged”). Three attendees had been at the previous forum in Berlin and so was separated as its own group. Of these, Bill Parlett had a long list of questions, seeking more specific information about the potential effects of consolidation. He is profoundly disturbed by the process of forming opinions without sufficient data to support those opinions, particularly as the forums are discussions without
a meaningful data base, followed by the straw poll to garner opinions. Speaking as a father, he said, “I would want to see data comparing Berlin and Gorham (before coming to a conclusion).” He gave his list of questions to the discussion facilitator, Cheryl B. Baker, CAGS (Certificate of Advance Graduate Study—Masters in Education), Director, Graduate Recruitment and Outreach, at the Plymouth State University College of Graduate Studies. Joe Rodgers, of Gorham, said that “no matter what (alternative) you choose, you need more research. We are not going to fix it tonight. I looked at this an

an opportunity for the schools to take the lead in really showing the community our leaders. These two communities (Berlin and Gorham) are really very small and everything we do could be collaborated. We could be one town. Why do we have two police departments? Why does Berlin have one fire department? Why do we pay two town administrators? Let’s figure out what we need for the schools and what we need for the Androscoggin Valley.” The straw poll followed these small group discussion conclusions. In conclusion to the evening meeting, Paul Bousquet told the group that the
two discussion leaders from Plymouth— the second being Kathy McCabe, a former assistant school superintendent and presently graduate adjunct professor at PSU—would put all the conclusions from all of the forums together and would present these at two meetings: one on Oct. 19 in Gorham and one in Berlin on Oct. 25. The next town forums planned are: The Milan Village School library, ThurS., Sept. 22; the Gorham Middle/High School cafeteria, Wednesday, Sept. 28; Shelburne Town Hall, Tue., Oct. 4; and Errol School cafeteria, Wed. Oct. 5.,7-9 p.m.

By Holiday Mathis they were when you found them. This is difficult when others around you are messy and thoughtless. You may be the only responsible one, but keep up the high standards. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Learning to think differently can be the most difficult habit to change. But it doesn’t have to be so hard. Mostly, you will dwell on the lovely thoughts you prefer, and the shift happens quite naturally. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll create an emotional climate around you. It will be as though you have your own personal weather system following you around wherever you go. It’s quite sunny and fair where you are. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The chatter in your head is as distracting as a television blaring when you’re trying to read or converse. You can quiet the mental noise by telling someone trustworthy what’s on your mind, or by writing in a diary. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Meetings are often unnecessary, and today is no exception. However, unnecessary things can still be quite helpful. And today it will benefit everyone to get together and make sure you’re all on the same page. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 23). You approach many areas of your life with a strong sense of professionalism. Because you accept the trials and hard work, you will also accept the rewards. In October, you’ll connect with someone in a fleeting moment and turn this connection into a bond that lasts years. There’s a move in March. You’ll learn a new skill. Leo and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 13, 6, 4, 2 and 19.
Get Fuzzy
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll apply yourself in all sorts of unusual ways to please the powers that be. It works especially well when the one who happens to be in power is you. And you are certainly worthy of a pleasing effort. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You will see a relationship from the other person’s point of view, which makes you a kind of emotional genius. The ability to leave yourself and see things as another person might is a rare gift. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You probably won’t feel like taking a direct route. Wandering around requires a great deal of time, but it’s worthwhile. You’ll have different thoughts along this meandering path. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Cupid’s arrow hits. You’re likely to fall in love and stay in love. You may not be falling for another person, though -- it will probably be a project or an area of interest that captures your heart. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll enjoy a day of clear-headedness and ordered thinking. You will be decisive, partly because you feel there’s no time to waste and partly because the right answers seem so obvious to you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you’re not sure what to do, you will make the effort to appear knowledgeable. You will be convincing in this endeavor, making others feel at ease. People will believe what you say. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll feel empowered to take on the world, and yet you’ll wisely realize the world doesn’t always need to be “taken on.” Things are already leaning in your direction, so all you have to do is go with the flow. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You always try to leave things better than

by Abigail Van Buren
HIGH IN THE SKY IS NO PLACE TO TEACH MANNERS
DEAR ABBY: I am a flight attendant for a major carrier. I encounter rude passengers every single day, as well as people (including children) with no manners. I accept that not everyone will be friendly to me. Some people are not capable of being friendly, and others may be going through personal issues and not realize they’re being rude. I have a colleague, “Joel,” who can’t get past this. If a passenger doesn’t say “please” or “thank you,” Joel will respond with, “What do you say?” or, “What’s the magic word?” or a sarcastic, “You’re welcome!” if a thank-you hasn’t been given. I am appalled by this. While I agree that manners are important, I don’t feel it’s my place to educate our passengers. Joel gets his point across with a rude, condescending tone. What’s your take on this? Is Joel out of line or offering a valuable lesson? How can I voice my objection and tell him he’s embarrassing his co-workers, the passengers and himself? -- ATTITUDES IN ALTITUDES, IN FLORIDA DEAR A IN A: From my window seat it appears there may be stormy weather ahead for your co-worker. However, this is a lesson he will have to learn for himself, so stay out of it. One of these days when he asks a passenger what the “magic word” is, someone is going to give him one that can’t be printed in a family newspaper. Yes, Joel is out of line, and when enough passengers complain about him to the airline, he will suffer the consequences. DEAR ABBY: I am an accepting person who can make friends with just about anyone. Among my friends there are some who identify as homosexual. I value their friendship because they are caring, honest and funny -- traits I look for
in any friend. My grandparents -- whom I am close to -- are not so accepting. They have strict beliefs regarding homosexuality. So whenever I want to talk to them about something interesting that happened when I was with my friend and his or her partner, I’ll catch myself hesitating. I want to be able to talk to them, but I feel like every time I mention a gay friend it causes tension. Is there a way I can be graceful about this without stirring up bad feelings? -- RAINBOW GIRL IN SPRINGFIELD, MASS. DEAR RAINBOW GIRL: Yes. Ask your grandparents if they’d prefer you tell them all about your activities and whom you spend time with, or if they’d rather you remain silent about your gay friends. Explain that you sense tension when you’re open with them, and ask if they’d feel better if you were selective in discussing your life, your friends and your interests. That way the choice will be theirs. DEAR ABBY: I am a middle-aged man with an older sister who criticizes the way I sneeze. She thinks my sneezing isn’t “restrained” enough. It’s not a question of direction or whether I put my hand in front of my mouth or not. She believes if I don’t try to stifle my sneeze I’m uncouth. In my opinion, sneezing is a natural automatic response and serves to relieve whatever causes it. What do you think? -- SOMETHING TO SNEEZE AT DEAR SOMETHING: I agree with you. And I am not convinced that trying to stifle a sneeze is healthy because it’s nature’s way of expelling something from the nose that is irritating. Sneeze away, and -- God bless you!

WOODSVILLE -- The winless Woodsville Engineers boys soccer team may have pulled the midseason shocker for the boys’ Division IV soccer by defeating a very good Gorham team, 3-2. Woodsville’s Jordan Wilson scored at 28:35 of the first half off a direct free kick, 20 yards out from the Huskie goal. The shot made it past the Gorham defensive wall into the upper right corner of the net for a 1-0 lead. Gorham their offense going just 3:34 into the second half. Junior Hunter Lambertson took a centering pass from teammate Sam Jensen. Lambertson’s shot found the lower left corner from eight yards out. The goal was Lambertson’s ninth of the season. The Engineers’ Matt Abrams made it 2-1 for the home team at 13:23 of the second half. The shot came from 16 yards away and struck off the far left post. Woodsville looked to put Gorham away moments later. Engineer Nick Elliot scored off a scramble in front of the Huskie goal for the 3-1 lead. Jon Chabot finally connected on his first goal of the fall. The hard nosed Huskie senior has recieved plenty of attention this fall from opponents. The goal came from a Jensen throw in at 67:59 of the contest.
Berlin Harriers capture wins at Newfound Invitational BY JEAN LEBLANC THE BERLIN DAILY SUN
BRISTOL -- The Berlin boys and girls cross country teams made a statement to the rest of the teams in Division III, winning both the boys and girls events at the Newfound Regional invitational in Bristol Tuesday. The girls were first at 27 points, Belmont second at 60 points, Littleton 76, Newfound 88 and Mascoma 110. Lexi Basillia of Sanborn Regional High School was the first to cross the finish line in 19:18. Berlin’s team of runners was led by senior Lindsay Dumont in fourth overall, with a time of 20:50. Thirteenth was Moriah Lanteigne in 22:08, 15th Elizza Stiles in 22:31, 16th Ashley Bergeron 22:47, 17th Meghan Crammer 23:00, 18th Christina Morin 23:03, and 45th Sam Labans 27:27. The Mounties boys team scored a team total 63 points, good enough to capture the overall team event. Finishing runner-up to the Mounties was

The Chabot boot was a long lofting drive from 20 yards out on left side and nestling in the upper right corner making it 3-2. Unfortunately for Gorham, that was all of the scoring and Woodsville had earned their first win of the season. Saves during the game were six for Gorham’s Tyler Sanschagrin, and eight blocks for Woodsville’s Skyler Clough. The Huskies outcornered the Engineers 7-1. “We came out a little flat and Woodsville came out hungry for their first win,” said Gorham coach William Goodrich. “We managed to regroup at the half and apply some constant pressure resulting in a goal. A shot that Jon Chabot actually got past the keeper only to have him pounce on it on the goal line, and a great break away chance by Hunter where the Woodsville keeper made a great save. Kids played a much better second half and hopefully some of these 1 goal losses will turn into 1 goal wins the second time around.” The Gorham boys will get a tough challenge this coming Saturday during homecoming, battling the Profile Patriots.

From where I was, I did not recognize her right away. This was by far her best event and just makes the girls team that much stronger if she continues to run this well. Most of our girls ran personal bests today.” The cross country teams will travel to Moultonborough on Saturday for the next meet.
