Funding approved for new Snow School Plan is to build elementary school on middle school property BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

FRYEBURG — Two years of work behind the scenes by a number of citizens and educators has paid off. C. A. Snow School has been chosen as one of only six schools in Maine to receive funding for construction or renovation. With state funding, the current plan is to build a new K-5 school on the Molly Ockett Middle School site. "It was great news," Gary MacDon-

ald, superintendent for MSAD 72, said, earlier this month. "We were No. 5 on the list of about 80 schools in Maine who applied last fall. This is incredible news and everyone here is so excited — now the reality is the work really starts." Building committee members George Cunningham, Dave Knapp, Kit Trumbull, Billie L'Heureux and Zacary Shivers, all of Fryeburg; along see SNOW SCHOOL page 16

Checking colon lowers rate of cancer deaths

Tonight Low: 27 Record: -7 (1999) Sunset: 5:24 p.m.

(NY Times) — A new study provides what independent researchers call the best evidence yet that colonoscopy — perhaps the most unloved cancer screening test — prevents deaths. Although many people have assumed colonoscopy must save lives because it is so often recommended, strong evidence has been lacking until now. In patients tracked for as long as 20 years, the death rate from colorectal cancer was cut by 53 percent in those who had the test and whose doctors removed precancerous growths, known as adenomatous polyps, researchers reported on Wednesday in The New England Journal of Medicine. The test examines the inside of the intestine with a cameratipped tube. “For any cancer screening test, reduction of cancerrelated mortality is the holy grail,” said Dr. Gina Vaccaro, a gastrointestinal oncologist at the Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health and Science University who was not involved in the research. “This study does show that mortality is reduced if polyps are removed, and 53 percent is a very robust reduction.” Colorectal tumors are a major cause of cancer death in the United States and one of the few cancers that that can be prevented with screening.

2 journalists among dead in Syrian shelling ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– WORLD/NATION–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

CAIRO (NY Times) — Syrian security forces shelled the central city of Homs on Wednesday, the 19th day of a bombardment that activists say has claimed the lives of hundreds of trapped civilians in one of the deadliest campaigns in nearly a year of violent repression by the government of President Bashar al-Assad. Among the scores of people that activist groups reported killed by rockets and bombs through the day, two were Western journal-

ists, the veteran American war correspondent Marie Colvin, who had been working for The Sunday Times of London, and a young French photographer, Rémi Ochlik. The two had been working in a makeshift media center that was destroyed in the assault, raising suspicions that Syrian security forces might have identified its location by tracing satellite signals. Experts say that such tracking is possible with sophisticated equipment. Activists, civilian journalists and foreign

correspondents who have snuck into Syria have infuriated the authorities and foiled the government’s efforts to control the coverage of clashes, which have claimed thousands of Syrian lives in the last year and which Assad portrays as caused by an armed insurgency. Quoting a witness reached from neighboring Jordan, Reuters said the two journalists died after shells hit the house in which they were staying and a rocket hit them when they were trying to escape.

Obama unveils plan to cut Governor of Virginia calls corporate tax rate to 28% for changes in abortion bill

3DAYFORECAST

Today High: 42 Record: 63 (1997) Sunrise: 6:32 a.m.

Cancer, like any other illness, is a bore.” —Alan Bennett

WASHINGTON (NY Times) — President Obama asked Congress on Wednesday to scrub the corporate tax code of dozens of loopholes and subsidies to reduce the top rate to 28 percent, from 35 percent, while giving preferences to manufacturers that would set their maximum effective rate at 25 percent. Obama’s proposal, outlined by Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner at a midday briefing, also would establish a minimum tax on multinational corporations’

foreign earnings — a feature that Republicans immediately denounced. On Wednesday, Mitt Romney, whom the Obama camp has long viewed as the likeliest Republican nominee, proposed cutting by one-fifth the marginal rates paid by taxpayers at every income level, meaning that even the highest-earning individuals would pay no more than 28 percent. Romney’s plan would cut the corporate tax rate to 25 percent.

(NY Times) — Gov. Bob McDonnell of Virginia reversed his position on Wednesday on a bill requiring women to have an ultrasound before undergoing an abortion, saying he wanted changes in the measure before he would sign it. On Wednesday, Governor McDonnell, a rising star in the Republican Party who is often talked about as a candidate for vice president, yielded to that pressure, apparently with an eye to a broader national audience that might not look favorably on the passage of such a conservative bill by a legislature controlled by the governor’s party. In a written statement issued minutes before the House of Delegates was to debate the bill, known as Senate Bill 484, McDonnell said that after discussion with physicians, lawyers and legislators, he had concluded that amendments were needed to “help clarify the purposes of the bill and reflect a better understanding of prevailing medical practices.”

Streetlight issue continues to flicker BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The issue of streetlights came up before the selectmen for a third time last week, and while there was unanimous support to turn a number of the lights back on the board couldn’t agree on what move to make. “We must be ready to do something by now,” selectman Crow Dickinson said at one point, but that inclination proved wrong. A consensus formed over the course of the meeting around just turning the lights back on in North Conway Village without replacing them with LEDs, but it didn’t end there. “If you’re going to turn on one village,” chair David Weathers said, “you’re going to turn on both.” Selectman Michael DiGregorio turned to Janice Crawford, who first brought a proposal from the Mount Washington Valley Preservation Association to the town about lighting, and asked, “Where does it stand for you guys right now?” “I’m going to interpret what I believe I’m hearing from the constituency,” Crawford replied. Of a decision made by selectmen last year to turn off some of the streetlights, Crawford said it comes down to two things: “safety,” and “it’s not good for business.” “If I was making the decision I would do LED cobra-head lights in the strip,” she said, “and I would leave the fixtures in the village.” The town turned off the lights to save money, she said, but it hasn’t been worth it. DiGregorio agreed. Shutting the lights off cut the town’s yearly lighting expenses from $90,000 to $60,000, but he said it has proven to have been a shortsighted decision. “I believe we made a mistake,” he said. He suggested doing what Crawford suggested, turning the lights back on in both villages and changing over the

lights on the strip. Selectman Mary Seavey agreed, but Weathers did not. “That’s wrong in my opinion,” he said. “I would vote against it if it does not include the residential areas.” Seavey protested, urging the board to take a vote and make a decision. The lights on the street she lives on were turned off, she said, and she has learned to live with it. The villages and the strip, however, are busy commercial centers that cannot afford to remain dark. “I really think we have an issue here of safety, safety, safety,” she said. She pushed for a vote, but the other selectmen were unwilling to move forward. Weathers said he wanted to wait for selectman Larry Martin, who was absent. Seavey protested further, pointing out that board business does not stop because a member is absent. Martin said the next day he would not have voted anyway. “I have abstained the last couple times when New Hampshire Electric Cooperative is involved,” he said, since he works for the utility. He shares his opinion in such matters, he said, but he doesn’t vote. Town manager Earl Sires, meanwhile, encouraged the selectmen to gather feedback from residents. “My only caution is to remember the public was involved in this first decision” to turn off the lights, he said, and the board should consider just how involved in the decision they want the public to be this time. While the discussion has dragged on, meanwhile, more and more lights have gone out. “It’s dark in the village because more than half the lights are out,” public works director Paul DegliAngeli said. Roughly 65 percent of the lights are out, he explained, because the town has held off spending money to change bulbs on lights that may get replaced.

Budget committe members disregard oath To the editor: The following is to identify a serious violation of Conway Budget Committee members disregard for their sworn oath of office primary duty to “faithfully and impartially discharge and preform all the duties incumbent on me as budget committee member according to the best of my abilities, agreeably to the rules and regulations of the Constitution and laws of the State of New Hampshire. So help me God.” The role of the budget committee, according to RSA 32.1 is to assist the voters in the prudent appropriation of public funds.” The N.H. Supreme Court, in Hecker v. McKernan, 105 N.H. 195 (1963) has said the purpose of the municipal budget committee is: “to provide a committee with special knowledge to oversee and analyze the expenditures of the various towns and districts.” Since all entities have a tendency to ask for more funds to perform their functions the budget committee becomes “an arbiter, given power by the legislature to reconcile these appropriation requests to maintain the tax load within manageable proportion.” — Baker

v. Hudson School Dist., 110 N.H. 390 (1970). It is abundantly apparent that several current budget committee members, in my and other’s opinion, are there only to ensure most all school board expenditure requests are approved. This is in direct conflict with their sworn duties as a budget committee member. This is confirmed by one member’s statement that she ran for the seat largely “to support the school.” (see The Conway Daily Sun headline article of Feb. 17. As to the petition to abolish the budget committee, that is an excellent avenue to assist the ever increasing school spending. Keep in mind that even with the budget committee oversight spending increase by 118 percent in 15 years and staff by 84 percent while enrollment decreased by 8 percent. Those promoting this uncontrolled spending vote in numbers without consideration for the ability of the taxpayer to afford said expenditures. Only an active voter at both deliberative meetings March 5 and 7 can help guarantee a reasonable choice on voting day, April 10, to prevent overspending! Bob Drinkhall Conway

Obvious overreach on religious freedom To the editor: The latest directive coming down from the Department of Health and Human Services that forces Catholic and other religious institutions, such as schools and hospitals, to provide health insurance that includes birth control and abortion meds like the morning after pill. This has Catholics and several other religious organizations stand-

ing up against the Obama administration for an obvious government overreach on religious freedom. This is also against our NH state constitution Part 1 Article 1 Sec V that states: Every individual has a natural and unalienable right to worship God according to the dictates of his own conscience.

I propose planning for revaluations every 10 years To the editor: As you may know my name is Erik Corbett and I am running for selectman in Bartlett this year. As all residents of Bartlett know the town had a full revaluation done in 2011 to better determine the value of all properties in town. This hadn’t been done in 17 years despite the State of New Hampshire’s recommendation/ requirement that it be done every five years. Its been said that we saved quiet a bit of money by not doing a revaluation for 17 years. That is true, if we had followed the State of New Hampshire guidelines we would have done three in that same time period and spent

roughly $900,000. So we did save close to $1 million. Where is that money? Why didn’t we save some of it in a capital reserve fund, earning interest on our money, for a revaluation in the future? Instead we had to borrow $300,000 to get the job done and pay interest on that money. I believe we need to plan on doing revaluations more than once a generation in the future. I propose planning for revaluations every 10 years and setting up a capital reserve fund to set aside funds from each annual budget to at the very least offset some of the cost of the revaluation. Erik Corbett Glen

I propose elimination of the deliberative session To the editor: This April, you may find a couple of warrant proposals designed to decimate the Conway Budget Committee. This venture into abysmal arrogance was instigated by a certain smooth talking selectman with an almost perfect reputation of fiscal — and personal — irresponsibility. Furthermore, his demonstrated talents at spreading manure, enabled him to dupe at least a few dozen petition signers into climbing aboard his “honey wagon.” This is nothing but an absurd attack on an already toothless, but at least informative, government watchdog; an attempt to completely eliminate accountability and stifle oversight. Is it any wonder that such profound irresponsibility would cheerlead unbridled, out of control tyranny? Folks, if you buy into this nonsense, you may as well join the herd of the brainwashed; slip a ring in your nose and take your place in the corral. The already oppressive make-up of most of this town’s governing body will continue to relentlessly gut your livelihood, but this time without at least a glimmer of deliverance and with zero checks and balances. Who are the extremists; those who strive to ensure you get the best possible return for your tax burden, or the militant radicals who would never pass up an opportunity to steal the proceeds of your labor, only to support inefficient bureaucracies, bogus programs and featherbedding? Most rational individuals understand that, despite its stated pur-

pose, the budget committee is realistically, simply an advisory board. As long as there exist a cadre of dedicated freeloaders ready to do the bidding of the special interests, they will flood the deliberative with their flock and torpedo months of budget committee deliberation, discussion and debate. So in light of this ability, what could possibly be the reasoning behind this proposal? Well, I believe there are at least two: First, the takers will eventually cross a threshold and those paying oppressive taxation will become increasingly frustrated and cognizant of the theft and abuse, and they may finally do something about it. Second, these special interest are usually a lazy, non-productive bunch. Why go through the hubbub of trying to justify legalized municipal thievery in the first place? It takes work and sleazy deception to muster sufficient support for raiding the livelihood of others — and “what if we lose?” I propose a more rational approach: work to eliminate the deliberative session, not the budget committee. This way the entire voting body will have a clear choice: That of the school board, rife with special interest wants, propaganda, and nefarious failed programs, or the budget committee, a budget proposed by a (supposedly) balanced group of active citizenry, the result of analysis, debate and consensus? No brainer? An understatement! Raymond Shakir North Conway

Trustees haven’t heard how to formally accept funds To the editor: As a Tamworth Cemetery Trustee, I feel I must correct the implications in Michal Stepien’s letter to the editor Feb. 15. In March, newly elected trustee Alex Cook stated the Tamworth Community Guild was interested in donating funds to the Tamworth Cemetery Trustees for repairs of headstones, primarily in Riverside Cemetery. As a result of this, I, on behalf of the trustees asked the Attorney

General’s office for the proper procedure for accepting such funds and making sure they were spent for the designated purpose. We have not heard back. Selectman Farnum has not spoiled the gift in any way to my knowledge and has not been involved. I would like to thank Michal for his work in maintaining the cemeteries over the years as a paid contractor. John B. Wheeler, trustee of Tamworth trust funds and cemeteries Chocorua

with Carol Brooks and Jason LaMountain, both of Brownfield; Helen Ramsdell and Henry Banks, both of Denmark; and Joel Hardman, of Lovell, worked with staff members Jeanette Almy, principal of the Snow School; David Powers, maintenance/ transportation director; Madeline Bassett, business manager; Jay Robinson, principal of Molly Ockett Middle School; Tonya Arnold, assistant principal of Molly Ockett and MacDonald to develop the application that went to the Maine Department of Education. "This group worked over a period of about two years," MacDonald said. "Soon we hope to be forming a building committee that will be working with the state to develop specific plans. If any one is interested in being on the building committee they should contact this office." Maine Department of Education had not been accepting applications for construction or renovation for a number of years — it last approved funding in 2005 — but finally made finances available this year. MacDonald said the plan his group submitted was about an inch and half thick. "We really had a great building committee," he said. "We put our application together last fall. In Maine most of the school funding is not done locally, it's done through the state. The good news is you get a lot of funding, but the bad news is you have to wait quite a while for that funding." MacDonald said he was told to look on the Internet in December. "We checked online and the state had given support for the first five schools on its list including us. We've been in contact with the state and are waiting to hear back (about the next steps). The first step will be to meet with the state and review our conceptual plan. We just need to

hear some specifics from the state." MacDonald said the building committee hopes to go for a referendum question within the next 12 months to get local voters to support the project. "I think it's fair to say that if everything moves forward some time between the next three to four years we'll be in a new building," he said. "The school would be on the Molly Ockett site. The committee decided that site made the most sense." The C.A. Snow School currently is located on 11 Pine Street and the corner of Portland Street in Fryeburg Village. "Mr. Snow was superintendent in Fryeburg from 1923 to 1948," according to the C.A. Snow website. "The superintendent's office, formerly known as the annex building, was the original school established in 1903 when districts 1 and 2 united. In 1949, what is now called the Charles A. Snow School was brought on to the property to alleviate crowding." "The Snow School building desperately needs to be replaced," MacDonald said. "It was built in the 1950s and we've been patching and keeping it going for the last six years since we had the fire there. There are some real foundation and structural issues. There's also some safety issues with the bus loop and drop-off. "To be fair," he continued, "a renovation is really not in the cards. It's in desperate need to have a new building. We are all extremely excited to place so high on the list. It's going to take substantial amount of funding (for the new school) and we hope to get the majority of the funding through the state. The state has a huge part in determining what (the new school) will look like." Anyone interested in serving on the building committee can contact MacDonald at Maine School Administrative District 72 at (207) 935-2600.

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, February 23, 2012— Page 17

BUDGET from page one

Two budgeteers, Joe Mosca and Karen Umberger, each came up with separate plans to reduce the police budget and came within $65 or one another. Mosca sought to reduce the police budget by $66,000 which represented a 2 percent cut of the $3.1 million PD budget approved by the selectmen. The budget committee made recommendations of what to cut, including $10,000 less for gasoline, $15,000 less for medical insurance, $30,000 less for earned benefits and $11,000 less for vehicle and operations expenses like electricity, telephones, office supplies, vehicle maintenance and uniform maintenance. Mosca combined the $66,000 police reduction along with a $35,000 cut to the highway department budget. He lumped the two requests together for a $101,000 proposed cut. "I think there's more wiggle room than they're proposing," Mosca said of both departments. "I get very queasy at this last second of superimposing my judgment on the town," fellow committee member Ted Sares said. "We've had all these meetings, why wait until now to do this." "This is part of the process and the timing is right," Dave Sordi, budget committee chairman, said. "We could have argued this two or three weeks ago," Sares replied. "To go back at this now smacks of micro-managing." Sordi explained Mosca and Umberger, who recommended cutting the police budget by $65,935, were right in trying to offer a line item rationale for their cuts. "Last year we should of gone in and identified specific line items; instead we gave a bottom line figure," he said. "We were told we should understand the budget enough to be able to make sensible decision on what to cut. I believe that's what (Mosca and Umberger) have done." "I'm sorry I was off by $65 from what Joe recommended," Umberger said, smiling. "I chose a couple fop different areas but the bottom line we came up with separately amounts to about $66,000. I'm 150 percent in support of the cut proposed." Umberger sought to make the prosecutor position essentially a part-time post, reducing the salary by $38,000. "I for one am glad you pointed out the areas that should be cut," Mike DiGregorio, selectman's representative to the budget committee, said. "(The police department) returned nothing at the end of this year. In fact, they almost went over budget by $20,000." DiGregorio argued that the highway department budget shouldn't be cut. "I think that may be a little short-sighted," he said. "Paul D. (town engineer Paul DegliAngeli) has been doing this for a long time, he's very good at what he does. I don't support any reduction in the highway department and I hope everyone votes no." Budgeteers sided with DiGregorio and voted down Mosca's motion 11-6, with Mosca, Maury McKinney, Umberger, Doug Swett and Bill Marvel in the minority. Umberger's proposed police department budget cut was approved 11-6, with DiGregorio, Kelly DeFeo, Maureen Seavey, Sares, Sordi and Dick Klement in the minority. Budget committee member Bill Marvel sought to reduce the library budget by $4,898, the amount he said the library exceeded this year's budget by. Marvel, a former town library trustee, presented his colleagues with a handout outlining his proposed cut. "While unforeseen expenses for maintenance and repair were cited as the cause of over-expenditure, the library's Dec. 14, 2011 budget worksheet indicated that the director had already overspent in several discretionary categories, including Adult Books, Children's Books, Adult Periodicals, Electronic Materials and Technology. She overspent most of the those categories even further in the remaining 17 days of 2011, during which the normal monthly expenses should already have warned her that she would exceed her budget altogether by the end of the year. see BUDGET page 20

Police hope voters will restore cuts BY ERIK EISELE THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — The police department plans to appeal to voters at the March deliberative meeting in hopes of getting back some of the $66,000 in cuts the budget committee made to the police budget. The cuts, which police commissioners said equated to a rejection of a new budgeting method the department used this year, were approved in an 11-6 vote at the budget committee meeting last week. Without that money, however, the commissioners said, the department will be in the same place it always is: scrambling to catch up. The budget gets pared way down each year, com-

mission chair Theresa Kennett said, “and then we’re in a fix.” Putting the money back will allow the department to “plan for and deliver good service to the town of Conway.” The new budgeting method, which commissioner Rodney King brought to the board, looks at threeyear averages and trends instead of just the previous year budget. In some areas, like the health insurance and the earned benefits lines, that led to substantial increases. The commission justified those increases by pointing to past experience. Most years a couple of officers leave, costing the department significant buyouts, see POLICE page 20

Granite Staters enjoy warm day

CONCORD -- The calendar says February, but on Wednesday, it felt like spring through much of the state. As it hit 55 degrees in Nashua, Granite Staters were out enjoying the mild weather. “In February, we normally have 2 to 3 feet of snow on the ground, so it’s nice to get out early,” said Dick Holden, of Concord. At the Beaver Meadow Golf Course in Concord, the driving range was open about two and a half months early. “It usually doesn’t open until the beginning of April, so this is a pleasant surprise,” said Mark Gerding, of Concord. Down the road at Rolfe Park, it was a playground day for parents and chil-

dren, and many said they were making plans to enjoy the weather while it lasts. “We’ll probably just come out to the park a couple more times, maybe go out to grandma’s and see the horses, that kind of thing,” said Spencer Dickinson, of Concord. For others, the nice weather was a chance to work, rather than play. Construction companies are welcoming the continued warm weather, saying it makes the work day and projects go by faster. “It’s great,” said Andrew DuBois of Tim’s Fabricators. “We’re used to the cold. We usually freeze our bums off, so it’s actually nice and a little bit of a change.”

POLICE from page 17

and several officers switch from individual health insurance plans to married plans or from married plans to family plans. The department knows these things are going to happen, the commissioners said, because they do every year. Planning for the inevitable makes good budgeting sense, they said. The budget committee, however, raised concerns when the commission explained that strategy last month. The department should be budgeting for known expenses, several committee members said, not putting in extra money for contingencies that might not happen. The commissioners promised that if those situations did not arise the department would return all unspent money, but that promise came on the heels of criticism for past years when the department burned through budget surpluses. The budget committee cut represents a 2 percent cut of the $3.1 million police budget approved by the selectmen. The budget committee made recommendations of what to cut, including $10,000 less for gasoline, $15,000 less for medical insurance, $30,000 less for earned benefits and $11,000 less for vehicle and operations expenses like electricity, telephones, office supplies, vehicle maintenance and uniform maintenance. Wagner made his own list of cuts should the voters opt not to add money to their budget. His list in many way mirrored the suggestions from the budget committee, which he said he had not yet seen, but with one notable exception. “Does that totally wipe DARE out?” said commissioner David Doherty, referring to the $5,000 reduction to the children’s drug awareness program. “Yes,” Wagner replied.

BUDGET from page 17

"That indicates either poor fiscal management skills or an indifference to the constraints of a budget — or both," Marvel continued. "Voluntary and unnecessary over-expenditure of a municipal budget is the very sort of management that should attract the unfavorable notice of a budget committee. "The committee should consider, when voting on this token reduction, that the extraordinary emergency expenses the library incurred in 2011 could have been covered entirely by the library's significant over-budgeting in other line items, including heating fuel, electricity, and postage. Heating oil alone was over-budgeted by 35 percent. Despite the improbability of having so many costly emergencies again in 2012, the library asks for a substantial increase in its budget even as usage is steadily declining in all areas. Visitation, circulation, computer use, and program attendance are all lower now than they were in 2009: program attendance is down 7.6 percent in the last year alone, while computer use dropped 21 percent in 2011. “The library's 2012 request represents a 6.4 percent increase over the budget of two years ago, while visi-

“$5,000 to keep one child from becoming a drug addict is worth it.” “I don’t agree with that,” Doherty said. The cuts would put the department in the same position it has been in every year recently, commissioner Kennett said: scrambling to make up expenses when an officer leaves or changes plans. If the recommended budget goes through, she said, “we’re right back in the same place we were a year ago, triaging crimes and coverage.” That may be true, Wagner said, but there is no guarantee the voters support the request. “We need to figure out where the money is going to come from.” Four of the cuts are crucial to get back, commissioner King said, pointing to the earned benefits line, the medical insurance line, the gasoline line and the DARE line. “$5,000 to keep one child from becoming a drug addict is worth it,” he said. The department will not, however, ask for the full $66,000 in order to fully fund their 2012 budget. One officer position has been vacant since Jan. 1, which the department said has saved $11,000. To get everything back, therefore, the department would need $55,000 this year. But even that may not be what the department asks for at the meeting. Kennett asked King, who has been the board member paying closest attention to the budget details, to look at how these cuts would affect the department. The commissioners plan to hold a special meeting next week to go over their plan, in order to be ready for the deliberative meeting the following week. tation at the library has declined 6.2 percent during that same period. Even with this reduction, the library budget would still be 3 percent greater than last year's budget, 5 percent higher than it was two years ago, and 7.9 percent more than the library actually spent in 2010, when usage was much higher. "The proposed reduction is probably less than close scrutiny of the library budget warrants, but it should be sufficient to put the library on notice that better management is expected," Marvel concluded. "I have to vote against this as the selectmen's representative, but Bill made some good points," DiGregorio said. The motion passed 13-3-1 with DiGregorio, DeFeo and Seavey in the minority while Sares, who is a current library trustee, abstained. The overall town budget, $9,052,925, was then approved 14-3 with DiGregorio, Seavey and DeFeo in the minority. The next step in the budget process is the deliberative portion of town meeting, which is set for Wednesday, March 5, at 7 p.m. in Loynd Auditorium at Kennett High School. Final voting on the budget is scheduled for April 10 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Conway Community Building in Center Conway.

Mononucleosis

Mononucleosis is a common infection caused by a virus known as the Epstein-Barr virus, or EBV. With an incidence of 500 cases per 100,000 people, mononucleosis, often referred to as mono, typically strikes the 10 to 20-year-old age population, although it can affect any age group. The Epstein-Barr virus is actually in the herpes virus family, although like many viruses in that family it has no relationship to genital herpes or cold sores. When the virus infects a person it invades the white blood cells and the cells that line the throat. Replication of the virus occurs, which leads to an inflammatory response within the immune system and Dr. Brian Irwin the classic symptoms of mono. The most typical symptoms of mono are fatigue, sore throat, enlarged tonsils and enlarged lymph nodes. In addition, enlargement of the spleen can occur, which can lead to congestion of the blood vessels in the system of veins that feed the liver as well. It is not uncommon for jaundice to develop in patients. The skin is typically spared in cases of mono, unless antibiotics are administered. Although antibiotics are not helpful for treating any viral infection, including mono, there have been cases where mono was mistaken as strep throat, as it often declares with the same throat pain and white patches that strep causes. If amoxicillin is given to these patients, nearly all of them will develop a red rash in short order. In the event this has happened to you or someone you know, the rash associated with antibiotic use in mono is not an allergic rash and does not constitute an allergy to that drug. It is possible to develop more serious complications of mono. In some rare cases patients experience a drop in their platelet count and even an anemic crisis wherein the patient’s red blood cells rupture and the count drops. These cases are very uncommon, and typically can be treated with steroids with good results. Considering the spleen is enlarged in some mono cases, it is advised to avoid contact sports if you have mono, especially during the first month of illness. A rugby teammate of mine in college disregarded this advice and played a game while recovering from mono. His spleen ruptured on the field after a tackle, sending him for emergency surgery to stop the internal bleeding. He did well, but this advice is important to follow if you’re diagnosed with mono. There is no cure for mono other than time. Patients typically recover within a month, however recovery can take two or three times this long in some cases. Aside from time, aggressive hydration, the use of anti-inflammatory drugs and throat lozenges can help soothe the symptoms. Steriods are reserved for patients who have severe airway involvement or those with the aforementioned anemia or platelet issues. Mono is a common disease, one that can act just like strep or even just a mild viral infection. If you have symptoms of mono, talk with your PCP today about precautions, treatments and prevention of transmission. Dr. Brian Irwin is a family physician at Tamworth Family Medicine, a division of Huggins Hospital.

Memorial employees raise funds to help battle cancer

CONWAY — Jen’s Friends has launched a Pink Flamingo Flocking fundraising effort and Memorial Hospital employees are flocking to Jen’s Friends to help raise critical dollars. Proceeds from the fund-raiser will provide valuable assistance and other resources to Mount Washington Valley cancer patients and their families who are uninsured, underinsured, or financially challenged. The help makes it possible for patients and their families to focus on battling cancer without worrying about the financial burdens that inevitably seem to arise. Another team of Memorial employees has signed up to join The American Cancer Society Relay For Life in Gorham on June 16 and 17. Michele Whiting, captain of the team, said: “We assembled a dedicated and enthusiastic team last year that found the event to be a very moving experience that allowed us to celebrate the lives of people who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and join with others in the fight back against the disease.”

Memorial Hospital employees (from left to right): Steve Wyrsch, COO, Ruthanne Fabrizio, RN, Shauna Ross, clinical manager, med/surg, and Ethnee Garner, vice president of nursing, are joining hands with other hospital employees to help raise funds for Jen’s Friends. Marta Ramsay, nursing coordinator (not pictured), is also participating.

In the meantime, if you encounter a flock of large pink birds in the sky or in your yard, not to worry, the flamingoes are there as a reminder that contributions to the Jen’s Friends Cancer Foundation are much

appreciated. The foundation is currently supporting 62 families in the Mount Washington Valley. If you wish to be flocked, or to make a contribution to Jen’s Friends, call 356-5083.

Integrative wellness fair part of Evergreen's 2012 special events

CONWAY – Evergreen Institute for Wellness has announced some of its upcoming special events for the new year, including an Integrative Wellness Fair on Saturday, May 19, at Purity Spring Resort in Madison. The daylong activities are being offered in partnership with Memorial Hospital and its medical practitioners. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the public is invited to participate in a wide variety of health screenings, wellness education, workshops and interactive programs. “Stress-Busting Workshops,” presentations on acupuncture, nutrition, osteopathy and more will be available throughout the day. Designed to treat body and soul as one, “integrative medicine” combines the best of traditional health care with the holistic arts and therapies. Evergreen expects more than 50 exhibitors at the event as they join with Memorial Hospital to promote wellness through education about integrative modalities and how they can help prevent disease. From 4 to 7 p.m., a special “Treatment” area will offer people the opportunity to personally experience some of the integrative therapies. The weekend will conclude on Sunday with a special keynote presentation.

“We’re very excited to bring this full day of opportunities to the Mount Washington Valley community,” said event coordinator Kat Alden. “Good health begins with an understanding of wellness and each individual’s potential for improving his or her own well-being. Evergreen is committed to providing the knowledge, skills and inspiration that encourage people to take responsibility for their own health.” Scott McKinnon, president and CEO of Memorial Hospital, said the hospital and its providers are pleased to partner with Evergreen as a sponsor of the event. “We appreciate having the opportunity to share our knowledge of more conventional modalities of care that can be combined with integrative approaches to further promote wellness and improved self-care.” Planning is already underway and the organization is looking for sponsors and exhibitors to make the day a big success. Special pricing is available for non-profit exhibitors. More information about the event, along with sponsorship, advertising and exhibitor forms are available for download at Evergreen’s website, evergreenforwellness.org. For more information, call Kat Alden at 651-7475 or email evergreenforwellness@gmail.com.

Snack Attack Everybody needs a snack now and then. Energy gets low. Tummies gurgle. If a bag of chips and a soda is your idea of a snack, you’ve got trouble brewing. Sooner or later that trouble is going to show up on your waistline, hips or thighs. Even worse than the physical ramifications of poor snacking habits, are the long term consequences to your overall health. Poor snacking habits lead to poor health. Let’s take a look at some healthy snacks and see if we can’t replace high fat/high sugar with real “pick-me-ups” that will keep us full and well nourished at snack time. When choosing snack items for anyone over the age of two, The American Heart Association recommends keeping the following criteria in mind: • less than or equal to 200 calories per snack • no more than 35 percent calories from fat, with the exception of nuts and seeds • no more than 7 percent calories from saturated fat

• Zero trans fat (less than 0.5 g per serving) • no more than 480 mg of sodium • less than 35 percent calories from total sugars with the exception of: fruits and vegetables without added sugar; unflavored non-fat and low-fat yogurt and flavored non-fat and low-fat yogurt with no more than 30 grams of total sugars per eight-ounce serving. When it comes to what snacks to keep on hand in your desk, Better Homes and Gardens recommends tuna salad in a pouch, nuts, fruit cookies, animal cookies and single-serving soups. Of course you’ll want to keep the criteria above in mind when choosing which items will be stashed in your desk. Fruit of any kind is great to keep at your desk. Just don’t leave it behind if you don’t eat it. Banana mush never looks good on a presentation. When it comes to night-time snacks, know what your cravings usually are and make substitutions that will still tickle

your taste buds and satisfy you. If you crave ice cream, try freezing some fruit and grain bars. Low fat or no-fat yogurts are great treats. Healthy cereals are great for munching. Ask any toddler about their favorite snack and you’re bound to hear “cheerios”! If you’re a salty snack craver, tame that salt craving by gradually weaning yourself. Try salted popcorn at first and gradually work your way down to a healthy snack of air popped corn. If cakes and cookies are your nemesis, try out those 100 calorie packs on the market. Of course, you have to limit yourself to eating only one packet. Snacking doesn’t have to be a bad habit. With a little planning and some willpower we can all snack without guilt.

American Cancer Society’s 35th annual Hope on the Slopes Race To Beat Cancer a success CONWAY — Last weekend's 35th annual American Cancer Society’s Hope on the Slopes Race to Beat Cancer raised over $17,000 for cancer research and Mount Washington Valley patient services. A hundred volunteers participated in a fun-filled day on the slopes including skiing, snowboarding and tubing races at Cranmore Mountain, North Conway. “Mount Washington Valley residents, second home owners, and visitors alike really showed their spirit this weekend," said Kathy Metz, community executive for the American Cancer Society. The top three individual fundraisers were 15-year-old Jessi Frechette of Colebrook who brought in $1,332, Richard Ayer of Glen, who raised $1,310 from friends and family and 12-year-old Neville White of Jackson collecting $1,120 in donations. Special mention goes to 11-yearold Jillian Adams of Westwood, MA who raised $1,100. Metz said that money raised in the 2012 Hope on the Slopes Race To Beat Cancer will be used to speed up the search for new weapons to fight cancer. “Cancer will soon become the number-one killer in America as Baby Boomers grow older.

James Powers

N.H. State Representative James Powers, 73, passed away Feb. 22, 2012 at his home in Portsmouth, from cancer. He was surrounded by family members and under the care of Seacoast Hospice. Jim was born in Montague, Mass., the son of the late James and Helen Powers, and traced his lineage back to the Mayflower. Jim was married to his wife, Eva, for 53 years. They have two sons, Wayne and Glenn, and two grandsons, Austin and Samuel. The family moved from Boston to Jackson in 1970, where he helped start the Jackson Ski Touring Foundation. They moved to the Seacoast in 1979, but kept close ties to Jackson and maintained a home there in recent years. Jim was an avid learner and reader. He was a Phi Beta Kappa at Amherst College, a Woodrow Wilson Fellow, earned a master's at Harvard, M Ed. at the University of New Hampshire, and a doctorate in psychology, Boston University. Jim worked as a management consultant, a small business owner, as a guidance counselor and later as a psychologist in the public school system. He and his wife had a private psychology practice in Portsmouth. Jim was elected a N.H. State Representative, 2004-2008 and was reelected in 2010. He served on the environment and agriculture committee in the House. The N.H. Psychological Association presented him with its 2005 distinguished contribution award for "work on human welfare

through the legislative process." He was active in Democratic politics and worked on supporting public education and health care, ending discrimination against same-sex couples, and improving the environment. Dr. Powers was a President and Fellow of the NH Psychological Association, a Board Member of the Seacoast Anti-Pollution League, a yeoman of the Beefeaters' Club, and a Division Commander for the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary. He was a member of the Sierra Club, Audubon Society, Appalachian Mountain Club, Seacoast Land Trust, Clean Water Organization, the Nature Conservancy, and he was on Barack Obama's NH environmental committee. For relaxation, Jim liked to work in the garden, hike, walk and ski with his dog Braveheart and wife Eva. He sang bass with the Seacoast Men of Harmony. He would say, "Exercise, nature, and music -- how can you go wrong?" A memorial service will be held Sunday, Feb. 26, at 3 p.m. The service will be held at South Church at 292 State Street in Portsmouth. Jim had a great passion for animals, wild and domestic. His family hopes that in lieu of flowers, friends will celebrate his life through donations to the NH SPCA (www.nhspca.org/ contributions.html, NH SPCA, P.O. Box 196, Stratham, NH, 03885) or the Center for Wildlife (www.yorkcenterforwildlife.org/donate.htm, Center for Wildlife, PO Box 620, Cape Neddick, ME, 03902).

James R. Clemons Sr.

James R. Clemons Sr., 86, husband, father, brother, friend, outdoorsman, hunter, carpenter, and all around great guy, passed away in his home, on Feb. 20, 2012. Jim was born and raised in Bartlett, and lived there his entire life. He was the last surviving sibling of 14 children born to Elwin and Laura Clemons. He was married to his loving wife Janet for 53 years, and lived next door to the house he grew up in. He was adored by his family, and particularly by his close nieces and nephews. His career with the U.S. Forest Service spanned 32 years. He was the sign coordinator in the 1960s and 1970s, responsible for making all of the signs in the White Mountain, Green Mountain, and Allegheny National Forests, maybe 2000 signs a season. Additionally responsible for the maintenance of WMNF campgrounds, such as making all the picnic tables and structures. He also spent many years as a trail inspector (lucky guy), logging hundreds of miles on the hiking the trails and peaks of the Whites to measure and inspect them, and to direct the maintenance of them. His favorite part of the job was the occasional helicopter flight required to bring materials to the job. After retiring, he and his wife, Jan, spent many good years in each others company, many times camping while

crisscrossing the country. In later years, he was content to sit on his back porch and watch the birds, or put a few cord of wood in each year, right up until his final days. He leaves his wife, Janet; his sons, James and his wife, Lucy, Doug, and Dana; his grandchildren, Teresa Papavlo and Shannon Allain and her husband, Keith Allain; his great grandchildren, and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and great neices/ nephews too numerous to list. His daughter, Barbara, predeceased him in 2010. Visiting hours will be 7 to 9 p.m, Sunday, Feb. 26, at the Furber and White Funeral Home in North Conway. Church services will be held at the Bartlett Union Congregational Church on Monday, Feb. 27. at 11 a.m. In lieu of Flowers, donations can be given to the local Hospice Services or the Bartlett Union Congregational Church.

Personality test wraps up ‘Exploring Reality’ series Next week on Tuesday, Feb. 28, at 6:30 p.m. the “Exploring Reality” series wraps up with a film titled “Discover Yourself with the Enneagram” The Enneagram of Personality is a tool for self knowledge developed by Don Richard Riso and Russ Hudson. The system worked out by the Enneagram Institute involves a test where you choose one of two statements in each question that best expresses your thoughts and feelings. The result leads to a deeper understanding of yourself and others. There are nine different personality types: reformer, helper, achiever, individualist, loyalist, enthusiast, challenger and peacemaker. The film provides a basic introduction to the Enneagram System and Philosophy. It’s also an easy way to increase your self-knowledge, opening up possibilities that can be life-affirming and liberating. For those interested in further study there will be a three week course in March on the subject. Details are online at www.eatonsatsang.org. Admission is free and the screening is open to the public in the Ham Community Room at the Conway Public Library. This is the final film of the “Exploring Reality” Series organized and presented by the Eaton Sat Sang.

by Scott Adams

By Holiday Mathis those parts of your personality in one project or mission. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your emotional evolution is in progress. This could be the day you make peace with what you cannot understand, an act that will free up your energy for truly fulfilling pursuits. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll distinguish yourself as a person of exemplary character and talent. You’ll do this by rendering a better and more complete service than the one that is asked of you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be assimilating bits of inspiration that have been coming to you over the past few weeks. The process results in highly original thinking. Write down some of those interesting ideas. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Is confession really good for the soul, or does it just involve more people in the problem? You have a stellar sense of how to actually fix things, which is better than talking about them any day. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Get some exercise, and you’ll be unstoppable, especially professionally and socially. What you don’t accomplish with good manners you’ll make up for with fast reflexes. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 23). Certain of yourself, you’ll know the right thing, and you’ll do it. March brings spontaneous moods and interesting predicaments, too -- some of them quite lucky. You’ll tell the story for years to come. A partner in play comes along in April. July shows you advancement through study. A powerful mentor helps. Aries and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 33, 39 and 15.

Get Fuzzy

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s OK to need help, and there should be no shame in it. Do be careful to ask the right person, though -- which is to say the one with the expertise that most matches your problem. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There will be ups and downs as life comes to you in its concentrated form. Sometimes this causes you to feel heavier in your boots, and moments later it’s as though your heart is as buoyant as a balloon. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll get the stretch of space and quiet you need in order to do your best. Take advantage of it! Don’t fritter your minutes away on emails and the Internet. Do the thing that will have lasting impact. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t have to wait for a problem to get really big before you ask for help. The response time to your problem will be determined by a mysterious algorithm having nothing to do with your problem’s size. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will enjoy being around that rare kind of person who has had the requisite share of follies and misfortunes and yet chooses not to talk about them unless it’s absolutely relevant to what’s going on now. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The one who compliments and assures you is also trying to persuade you in some way. Take it all in stride. Let your trust build over time. More will be revealed about the situation tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Good fortune stems from your artistic talent or your deep sense of justice. Great fortune stems from your ability to fuse

THE CONWAY DAILY SUN, Thursday, February 23, 2012— Page 31

Today is Thursday, Feb. 23, the 54th day of 2012. There are 312 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 23, 1942, the first shelling of the U.S. mainland during World War II occurred as a Japanese submarine fired on an oil refinery near Santa Barbara, Calif., causing little damage. On this date: In 1685, composer George Frideric Handel was born in Germany. In 1836, the siege of the Alamo began in San Antonio, Texas. In 1848, the sixth president of the United States, John Quincy Adams, died in Washington, D.C., at age 80. In 1861, President-elect Abraham Lincoln arrived secretly in Washington to take office, following word of a possible assassination plot in Baltimore. In 1870, Mississippi was readmitted to the Union. In 1927, President Calvin Coolidge signed a bill creating the Federal Radio Commission, forerunner of the Federal Communications Commission. In 1945, during World War II, U.S. Marines on Iwo Jima captured Mount Suribachi. In 1954, the first mass inoculation of children against polio with the Salk vaccine began in Pittsburgh. In 1965, film comedian Stan Laurel, 74, died in Santa Monica, Calif. In 1970, Guyana became a republic within the Commonwealth of Nations. In 1981, an attempted coup began in Spain as 200 members of the Civil Guard invaded Parliament, taking lawmakers hostage. (However, the attempt collapsed 18 hours later.) In 1992, the XVI Winter Olympic Games ended in Albertville, France. Five years ago: A Mississippi grand jury refused to bring any new charges in the 1955 slaying of Emmett Till, a black teenager who was beaten and shot after whistling at a white woman, declining to indict the woman, Carolyn Bryant Donham, for manslaughter. Democrat Tom Vilsack abandoned his bid for the presidency. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport became the first in the United States to begin testing new X-ray screening technology that could see through people’s clothes. One year ago: In a major policy reversal, the Obama administration said it would no longer defend the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, a federal law banning recognition of same-sex marriage. Today’s Birthdays: Actor Peter Fonda is 72. Pro and College Football Hall of Famer Fred Biletnikoff is 69. Author John Sandford is 68. Singer-musician Johnny Winter is 68. Countryrock musician Rusty Young is 66. Actress Patricia Richardson is 61. Rock musician Brad Whitford (Aerosmith) is 60. Singer Howard Jones is 57. Rock musician Michael Wilton is 50. Country singer Dusty Drake is 48. Actress Kristin Davis is 47. Tennis player Helena Sukova is 47. Actor Marc Price is 44. Actress Niecy Nash is 42. Rock musician Jeff Beres (Sister Hazel) is 41. Country singer Steve Holy is 40. Rock musician Lasse Johansson (The Cardigans) is 39. Actress Kelly Macdonald is 36. Actress Emily Blunt is 29. Actor Aziz Ansari is 29. Actress Dakota Fanning is 18.

COUPLE CAN’T COME TO TERMS OVER BATHROOM BATTLEGROUND

DEAR ABBY: My otherwise loving, honest, generous, kind and attentive husband of 10 years feels it’s his right to walk into the bathroom whenever he wants, even when I’m in there. He says it’s coincidence, but I think he does it intentionally. We don’t have locks -- or even doors -- to shut our master bathroom. We do have other bathrooms in the house. I have asked him repeatedly not to come in or to make some noise so I know he’s coming. He says he “forgets.” If I’m in the shower or bent over with my head upside down blow-drying my hair and turn around or look up and see another person, I get startled. My adrenaline pumps and I end up yelling at him. I’d prefer to get clean and pretty in peace. My husband thinks I’m overreacting. Am I? -- BOTHERED IN THE BATHROOM DEAR BOTHERED: Feeling as strongly as you do, it’s surprising that you would move into a house in which the master bedroom and bath are set up this way. And yes, I do think you’re overreacting. However, you have a couple of options: The first would be for you to get clean and pretty in one of the other bathrooms. The second would be to start a remodeling project and have a door (or doors) to your master bath installed so your husband can knock before entering. DEAR ABBY: I am married to a wonderful and unique man. Despite his privileged upbringing he is very down-toearth. His parents’ affluence afforded him many opportunities and still does. Unfortunately, my in-laws are snobbish, self-absorbed and competitive. They are critical of everyone

-- especially their grown son. They put him and each other down constantly. They cause scenes and can’t enjoy life. My husband is trying to be patient because he knows his parents aren’t going to change at their age. But they consume so much of our energy with their constant dramatic highs and lows. Any advice for dealing with drama queens (and kings)? They do love us and can be considerate. -- LIVING IN THE REAL WORLD IN NEW JERSEY DEAR REAL: It may help you and your husband to understand that people who act the way your in-laws do are usually insecure on some basic level. They put others down to inflate their egos and reassure themselves that they’re “OK” by magnifying (or inventing) flaws in others. When your inlaws start to criticize, be pleasant and make a point of saying something positive about their target. It will short-circuit the rant. DEAR ABBY: I’m a 40-year-old working mother raising a daughter who is the joy of my life. Once in a great while I’ll accept an invitation to go on a date and hire a baby sitter to watch my daughter. My question is, who should pay for the sitter? The man who asked me out or should I? I have yet to have a suitor offer to pay. Is that just the way it is, or are these men just cheap? -- MOM ON A BUDGET DEAR MOM: Paying for your daughter’s sitter is YOUR responsibility. When you become involved in a steady relationship and the cost of a sitter becomes a financial burden, discuss it then with your boyfriend, who should be willing to share some of the cost.

Coe-Brown continues its late season run at Kennett’s expense, win 85-61 BY LLOYD JONES THE CONWAY DAILY SUN

CONWAY — Despite a fantastic third quarter effort, the Kennett High boys basketball team was unable to overcome a 27-5 second period on the road at the hands of Coe-Brown Northwood Academy on Tuesday night and ended up falling 85-61. The win lifted the playoff-bound Bears to 8-8 in Division II play while the Eagles fell to 1-15. They will play their home finale today (6:30 p.m.) when the Eagles welcome Laconia (4-12) to The Nest. “Coe-Brown had been seen as a top eight team during the preseason,” Steve Cote, Eagles’ head coach, said. “They struggled due to injuries in the first half of the season, but when you get an All State caliber player (Skylar Mitchell) back, good things tend to happen. I can tell you right now they’ll cause some teams problems in the playoffs.” Kennett trailed 14-11 at the end of the first quarter, but then the Bears went on big run over the next eight minutes to lead 41-16 at the half. “In the second quarter we got into a bit of a footrace with them,” Cote said. “We played to their tempo and stopped making the extra pass and things got away from us.” While the Eagles were cold from the floor, the Bears hit just about everything they threw up in the second period. Cote said the boys from Conway played well in the third quarter and were able to cut the lead to 12. “We had a great surge in the third,” he said. “That was keyed primarily by Nate Ela, who had 10 points, and Seth Davison and Scott Conner, who both had

seven points apiece.” Cote said Coe-Brown, who has a reputation of being aggressive around the basket and looking to get to the hoop constantly, had a great night from the foul line making 28 of 33 free throws. Kennett was 10-14 from the charity stripe, but didn’t attempt its first foul shot until early in the third period. “Overall,” Cote said, “I was very happy with the way the guys fought back, we just lost to a better team. …We love coming to Coe-Brown, it’s one of the funnest places to play in the state. They’re a classy program, plus it’s a terrific venue with a great crowd and a great rock band that can be very loud. (Laughing) I asked the (Coe-Brown) Athletic Director if he wouldn’t mind asking the band to play a few more ballads during timeouts because my guys couldn’t hear a word I was saying. He said there’s a reason why the amplifiers are pointing our direction.” Davison led the Eagles in scoring with 12 points while Conner added 11; Ela, 11; Robert Starkey, 6; and Ryan Vajentic, 4, while a handful of players had two points each. Darren Doyon scored a game-high 21 points with 10 rebounds to lead the Bears while Tom Darling scored 19 points and Skylar Mitchell added 17. Tonight, the Eagles will recognize their six seniors (Conner, Davison, Michael Lautenschlager, Alex Milford, Starkey and Dustin Stewart) before the tip-off. “Those six guys have kind of been the bedrock of the team this season,” Cote said. “It’ll be nice to recognize them.”
