Vt. Wood Manufacturers meeting in Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show Jan. 18-20 at Essex Junction Middlebury
Celebrate Vt.'s hunting, fishing heritage
newmarketpress@denpubs.com MIDDLEBURY — The focus of Vermont wood manufacturers will be in Middlebury later this months. Members of the Vermont Wood Manufacturers Association (VWMA) will hold their annual meeting at the downtown Middlebury Inn, Jan. 25. The meeting will start at 9 a.m. and concludes at 1:45 p.m. The statewide meeting will kick off at 9 a.m. with a membership tour of Middlebury College's biomass gasification plant which uses wood chips as fuel. Following the tour, the annual business meeting, along with various industry presentations, will follow the inn. Included at the meeting will be updates about the VWMA Working Lands Enterprise Fund, as well as reports by members of the VWMA Working Lands Enterprise Board, Agricultural and Forest Products Development Board, and Working Lands Coalition. According to Erin Sheridan Lorentz of the association, “VWMA members will share what WLEF projects they have submitted for initiatives and other industry members will share their proposed projects. Feedback from members will be sought from the boards and the Coalition. Attendees will also hear from Northern Forest Center officials about their upcoming initiatives.” Woodworker of the Year and Friend of the Industry awards will be presented, Lorentz said, with lunch to follow.

newmarketpress@denpubs.com ESSEX JUNCTION — Nineteenth-century frontiersman, scout, hunter, and fur-trapper Hugh Glass probably could have learned a thing or two by visiting the annual Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show held at the Miller Expo Center in Essex Junction. In August 1823, while hunting for food as a scout for the overland Henry Expedition along the Grand River in what later became Dakota Territory, an angry momma grizzly bear charged Glass and nearly mauled him to death. Left to die in the wilderness by his companions, Glass eventually crawled and limped his way more than 200 miles to the safety of Fort Kiowa. Early on, during the bloody odyssey, Glass rested his mauled, oozing back on a rotting log for two days. He wanted maggots to consume his dead flesh as a means to prevent gangrene. Now if Glass had attended the hunting and fishing presentations at the Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show, he might have learned, first, that you can be easily rid of a ticked-off momma grizzly with a few sprays of UDAP Magnum Bear Spray—a highly condensed mixture of pepper spray-in-a-can with a range of 20 feet; it’s the world’s best guarantee to ward off any bear attack. It’s certainly better than fumbling with a muzzleloader or a Bowie knife. But then, Glass never heard of the Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show let alone the Miller Expo Center. The old scout might have made good use of a selection of handheld GPS units in the field, too; they’ll be on display at the annual Vermont outdoor show. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Yankee Sportsman's Classic Show—and the great American spirit of Hugh Glass, as well as every other outdoorsman (and woman) to follow in his footsteps, will be celebrated. This 20th edition of the show will be held Jan. 18-20. For three full days, the 100,000 square foot Essex Junction expo center will welcome an estimated 15,000 sportsmen and women—including youngsters—to revel in Vermont's hunting and fishing heritage. And what better way to salute the state’s outdoors heritage than with 175 exhibitors. There’s something for everyone here—from guns and ammo to bait and bear repellant.
Joe DiNitto and Jim Massett, Adirondack trophy hunters and trackers, will be guest speakers at the 2013 Yankee Sportsman’s Classic this weekend. Visitors can attend seminars and check out the latest hardware. Check out the new lake and river boats, pickup and utility trucks, mini tractors, ATVs, RVs, and off-road motorcycles. Included at the show are some pretty good product sales, too. For example, a special truckload sale on Cannon gun safes will take place. And what better place to talk with Vermont wildlife and fisheries experts, even book a hunting or fishing adventure, or have your trophy officially scored by the Vermont Big Game Trophy Club. Gut deer? Well, 12 of the greatest whitetails ever taken will be available for viewing as part of the NRA’s Great American Whitetail Collection. See YANKEE SPORTSMAN’S CLASSIC, page 9

Sports Hall of Fame honors 13 Vermonters By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND — It was a long time coming, according to Dave Hakins, chairman of the Vermont Sports Hall of Fame. The new Vermont Sports Hall of Fame held its first annual Induction Ceremony and recognized 13 outstanding Vermont sports figures. “Members of the inaugural class represented 11 sports, several generations, and seven different Vermont counties,” Hakins
said. “Collectively, these individuals have earned multiple Olympic medals, won several team-sports world championships, and captured numerous individual and team accolades.” The inaugural inductees were announced by Hakins and included several sports categories: Larry Benoit, outdoors (Duxbury), Jen Carlson, soccer (Shelburne), Ray Collins, baseball (Colchester), Larry Gardner, baseball (Enosburg Falls), Albert Gutterson, track and field (Springfield), Bill Koch,
Nordic skiing (Brattleboro), Andrea Mead Lawrence, Alpine skiing (Rutland/Killington),John LeClair, ice hockey (St. Albans), Nicole Levesque Andres, basketball (Shaftsbury), Bob Yates, football (Montpelier), Tony Adams, contributor-media (Essex Junction),Jake Burton Carpenter, contributorsnowboarding (Londonderry), and Ken Squier, contributor-media/auto racing (Waterbury). Among the 13 inductees Haskins lauded at the award ceremony last week was John LeClair, a native Vermonter and world class
hockey player. “John encourages youth and supporting community organizations in Vermont including Prevent Child Abuse Vermont,” Haskins said. “John’s LeClair Foundation and Prevent Child Abuse Vermont have had a wonderful relationship for years. We are privileged Mr. LeClair used the occasion of his induction into the Vermont Sports Hall of Fame to publicly present his generous check to Prevent Child Abuse Vermont,” Hakins noted.
Magnante to return as Lake Monsters' skipper 2013 season begins June 17 BURLINGTON — Rick Magnante will return as manager of the Vermont Lake Monsters for the third straight season, the New York-Penn League team and the team's Major League affiliate Oakland Athletics announced last week. Pitching coach Craig Lefferts and hitting coach Lloyd Turner, both in their first season with Vermont, will join Magnante on the Lake Monsters field staff. Magnante, who has skippered the Lake Monsters since Vermont became an affiliate of the Oakland Athletics in 2011, will be the first manager in the team's 20-year history to spend three seasons at the helm of the Lake Monsters. Magnante led Vermont to a 39-35 record and the Stedler Division title in 2011 as the Lake Monsters made their first post-season appearance since 1996, while managing three first-round picks (Addison Russell, Daniel Robertson, Matt Olsen) and two second-round selections (Bruce Maxwell, Nolan Sanburn) during the 2012 campaign. Prior to coming to Vermont, Magnante managed the Athletics short-season team in Vancouver for five seasons (2006-10). Last September after the 2012 Lake Monsters season, Magnante managed the South African National team in a World Baseball Qualifying Tournament in Jupiter, Fla. Lefferts will begin his first season as pitching coach for the Lake Monsters, but his 11th season as a pitching coach in the Athletics organization. Lefferts pitched for six teams during a 12-year Major League career (1983-1994), going 58-72 with 101 saves and a 3.43 ERA in 696 career games. The Lake Monsters 2013 season begins on June 17 at Tri-City with Vermont's home opener on Thursday, June 20 vs. Connecticut at historic Centennial Field.
Dartmouth to host first evening Vt.-N.H. H.S. classic By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com Officials of Dartmouth College and the Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl Board of Governors have announced that the 60th Annual Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl—showcasing the best high school players of Vermont and New Hampshire—will be played on Memorial Field, Saturday, Aug. 3 as an evening game, with kick-off scheduled for 5:30 p.m. “This will be the first time in Bowl Game history that the game has been played at a
time other than early afternoon,” according to game official David E. Orr. Richard Ellis of Lebanon, president of the board of governors, said, “The board is sincerely grateful to Dartmouth College for not only hosting the 2013 game at its beautiful stadium, but allowing us to play the game as an evening game. This change should certainly help our attendance and the amount of money we’re able to raise for the Shrine Hospitals.” The traditional Pre-Game Shrine Parade is expected to still be held at noon. “Dartmouth is extremely proud to be host-
ing the Shrine Game for the 50th time,” said Dartmouth athletics director Harry Sheehy, “and we hope that the later start will help make it one of the most successful events in its history. It is truly an honor to partner with the Shriners in support of such a great cause.” Of the 30 Shrine Football games played every year across the country, the Shrine Maple Sugar Bowl ranks third in terms of money raised for the Shriners Hospitals. The event is sponsored by the three Shrine Centers of New Hampshire and Vermont — Bektash (Concord, N.H.), Cairo (Rutland) and
Mt. Sinai (Montpelier) and has raised over $4.5 million since it was first played in Nashua in 1954. The Shriners Hospitals provide care to children up to the age of 18. New Hampshire leads the all-time series 44-13-2. Both states select 36 of the top graduated high school senior football players from their respective states to square off on the gridiron every year since the game’s inception. More than 4,000 players have participated in the event, of which about twothirds still live in the two states.
Area Sports Men's hockey team thumps Tufts MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College’s Louis Belisle tied the school’s modern day record for goals (4) and points (6) in a game as 11th-ranked Middlebury (3-1-2, 2-0-2) earned a 9-2 win over Tufts (3-3-1, 1-2-1). The last Panther to score four in a game was Matt Snyder in November of ‘01, while the last six-point effort came from David Bracken in February 2000. Middlebury got on the board first with a goal on the power play at the 9:44 mark of the first period. Belisle scored on a wrister from the left wing in transition, converting a pass from Connor Frick. Belisle struck again for his third of the

year at 13:17, scoring on a backhander with an assist from Brendan McGovern after a turnover. The lead grew to 3-0 with 1:23 remaining when Robbie Donahoe made a quick cross-crease feed to Michael Longo for his third of the year. The period ended with the Panthers holding a 14-3 shots advantage. Trevor Pollock scored his first of the season 4:41 into the second period, tipping in a shot from the right point by Terrance Goguen. Robbie Dobrowski scored the first of his career at 10:32, converting a quick feed down low from Belisle. Belisle earned his hat-trick at 12:50 on an end-to-end rush, while tying the record just 1:04 later with a shot from the right point. Tufts got on the board late in the period with a power play goal. Dylan Plimmer won the face-off to Kyle Gallegos, who scored his team-leading sixth of the season. The Jumbos scored another power play goal 5:10 into the third period with a shot from the right point by Jared Barker. The goal was his third of the year, cutting the margin to 7-2. Belisle nearly netted his fifth of the game at the 14:10 mark,

but his wrister hit the crossbar. Dobrowski netted his second of the game at 15:26, while Chris Steele scored on the power play with 44 seconds remaining to round out the scoring. Nick BonDurant (40 min., 11 saves, 1 GA) and Mike Peters (20 min., 7 saves, 1 GA) combined for the win for Middlebury, while Derek Metcalfe (20 min, 11 saves, 3 GA), Brian Phillips (13:54 min., 5 saves 4 GA) and Greg Jenkins (26:06 min., 15 saves, 2 GA) each saw action for Tufts.
Women's hockey team settles for Trinity tie MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College outshot Trinity 4521 Dec. 1, but had to settle for a 1-1 road tie in game one of a two game series on Saturday. The fourth-ranked Panthers (3-1-1, 2-0-1) return to action on Sunday with a 3:00 p.m. start against the Bantams (2-0-2, 1-0-2). Trinity’s Hillary McNamara scored the game-tying goal with 12:14 left in the third period and goaltender Alexa Pujol finished with 44 saves in the game. Middlebury took a 1-0 lead with 3:42 left in the opening period when Molly Downey scored from Emily Fluke and Hannah Bielawski on a power play. Trinity held a 9-5 edge on shots after one period, but the Panthers peppered Pujol with 40 shots without a goal over the next 45 minutes. Trinity nearly tied it with just under five minutes left in the second, but Middlebury’s Annabelle Jones made one of her 20 saves with a glove stab behind her body against Trinity’s Lucy Robinson on a breakaway. McNamara netted the Bantam goal off a pass from behind the net by Whitney Colbert, while Lauren Fitzgerald also had a helper on the play. Pujol made multiple saves to help stave off a Panther power play later in the second period, and stopped Fluke one-on-one on the final bid of regulation with three seconds on the clock. The Trinity blueliners blocked three shots and Pujol made two saves while playing the last 1:50 of the overtime with three skaters against four.

The Panthers used a 16-6 run to open the second half, building a 49-34 lead with 12:34 on the clock. Three times the Thoroughbreds cut the lead to 11 over the next few minutes, but they could not get the deficit down to single-digits. Leading 56-45 with 8:48 remaining, Middlebury used a 12-2 burst to pull away over the next three minutes, cruising to the 74-53 victory. Five Panthers hit double-digits in scoring, led by Peter

MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College used excellent long distance shooting (7-14) and perfection from the free throw line (17-17) to pull away from visiting Skidmore in a nonleague contest 74-53 in Pepin Gym. Trailing by as many as eight points early in the game, Middlebury (8-0) closed out the half shooting 70 percent from the floor, including a perfect 5-5 from behind the arc, turning an eight-point deficit into a five-point lead at the break. Panton native Connor Merrill got the Thoroughbreds (52) going, starting a 7-0 run on a jumper. By the 11:06 mark, Skidmore’s lead grew to 16-8 on a three by Brian Moore. The teams traded a pair of buckets each before the Panthers started their blistering shooting performance to close out the half. Nolan Thompson’s first three sparked the run at 8:29, cutting the deficit to 20-15. After a pair of Panther buckets followed a Merrill lay-up, Thompson struck again with his second three at 3:27. Trailing 28-24 after a basket by Skidmore’s Doolun Anyam at 1:52, a trifecta of threes ended the half for the Panthers. Joel Kizel had back-to back treys, giving Mid-

While the deadline for students to sign up for the 2013 Brain Bee has passed, those already signed up are looking forward to the big Feb. 3 statewide event to be held on the UVM campus. The Vermont winner goes on to the National Brain Bee in Baltimore in March during Brain Awareness Week. The NBB winner, in turn, will then be eligible to attend the International Brain Bee.

MIDDLEBURY — Neuroscience is one of the fastest growing areas in medical science. It is also an area with superior career opportunities for students with the drive, discipline, and scientific skills to get involved. “The Vermont Regional Brain Bee is an exciting, creative way to promote interest and awareness, especially among young people,” said Lisa Bernardin, coordinator of the Bee. “It was established as a competition for high school students who are interested in neuroscience and the human brain. Students demonstrate their knowledge at the annual Vermont Regional Brain Bee which is held at the University of Vermont in February.” Bernardin coordinates the Brain Bee, which was developed and run by Diane Jaworski, Ph.D., a UVM associate professor of anatomy and neurobiology. Jaworski’s founding premise for the Brain Bee here in Vermont was to present a challenge to area high schools: “To motivate our young students to learn about the brain and inspire them to seek careers in the basic and clinical neurosciences to help treat and cure diseases of the brain and nervous system.” As a school speech-language pathologist, Bernardin has a logical reason for getting interested in the Vermont Brain Bee. But she is also a survivor of brain injury, so that makes her doubly committed. Her involvement with the Brain Bee is a testament to her own struggle in overcoming the injury. As a result, the Brain Bee has benefited from her personal touch; it was the recent recipient of “a small and inspiring” grant from the Vermont Community Foundation. Dr. Mark Stefani, a Middlebury College neuroscience professor, dispatches his undergraduate students to teach Vermont high school students about the exciting field. In addition to Stefani, Bernardin has successfully motivated other educators—and

Vt. heat tax a bad idea Are kids pointed in the right direction? V O
ermont’s history is replete with examples of terrible laws made by good intentioned, but ultimately misguided lawmakers. And since “we the people” elected these misguided lawmakers to state office, it becomes our job to manage them, and minimize the damage caused by their good intentions. Here’s the latest example of Vermont’s good intentions that has managed to torque off lots of voters—from homeowners to small business owners. The newest “progressive” idea floating around the capitol building is to establish a statewide excise tax on heating fuel—possibly up to 11 cents per gallon. Blame this one on the Vermont Department of Public Service’s Thermal Efficiency Task Force. It wants to raise $276 million in new taxes that would, in part, fund a new government program to encourage Vermonters to use less heating fuel. As a Vermont homeowner, renter, or small business person, do you really want to pay another tax to compel you to use less heating fuel? It makes me wonder where all those button-down, Jimmy Carter-style cardigan sweaters will come from when we’ll really need them? The Vermont Heat Tax proposal is very bad idea. For starters, state records show that heating-oil consumption has been declining statewide since the 1970s. And this has happened at the same time Vermont’s population has been increasing by 55 percent. According to the Energy Information Administration, the Vermont average per home consumption declined 45 percent by 1990, 52 percent by 2000, and 61 percent by 2010. Ergo—Vermonters don’t need to be told by Montpelier to use less heating fuel. We already are. In fact, I’d say we’ve done a pretty darn good job of reducing our fuel consumption without state government officials butting in. Hello? We don’t need to be taxed to use less. Now, if you do the math regarding the proposed Vermont Heat Tax, the average homeowner—you and me—will end up paying an additional $88 to Montpelier. Eighty eight dollars may not sound like a lot of money to some of you, but for me, and others like me, we don’t happen to have an extra $88 in our pockets to donate to the cause. According to a statement by the Vermont Fuel Dealers Association regarding this regressive tax, “Vermont businesses currently pay a sales tax, a gross receipts tax, and a petroleum cleanup fee on every gallon of fuel oil (purchased). When you add the proposed Vermont Heat Tax, 10 percent of the heating bill for a Vermont business owner will go to Montpelier.” Wouldn’t you rather keep the 10 percent for yourself? I know I would. Besides, low-income Vermonters who are already struggling to survive the winter will be hit hard by the Vermont Heat Tax. And no matter how you look at the Vermont Heat Tax, it’s going to be a big job killer. Which begs the question—why is this being proposed in the first place? And why would a business choose to expand, locate, or even stay in Vermont if forced to pay this energy tax? Lou Varricchio

ne thing we never seem to be short of are studies in human behavior. Several recent studies point to some alarming concerns for the future of our country. Reading survey outcomes is a little like reading tea leaves. Each person can see what they want to see in the results, but these results have more than just a few experts reaching similar conclusions. The first is the American Freshman Survey, which has accumulated data for the past 47 years from 9 million young adults. The survey reports that college students are more likely than ever to call themselves gifted and driven to succeed, even though their test scores and time spent studying is decreasing. American students have increasingly given themselves "above average" ratings on several attributes but bragged most regarding their "drive to achieve." Almost four-fifths of survey responders say they're above average in this category. The other survey from Pew Research Center, asked respondents if they had ever received benefits from any of six major federal entitlement programs — Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, welfare, or unemployment benefits. Pew found that in addition to the 55 percent of adults who had received benefits, another 16 percent said that while they had not received benefits themselves, a member of their household had — meaning 71 percent of adults belong to a household that has benefited from at least one of these six major programs. If veterans’ benefits and federal college loans and grants are included, the share of households with at least one recipient rises to a surprising 86 percent. When you combine the results and begin looking at other factors one has to question if our youth will be prepared to be fully self sufficient when their time comes to take the reins and support a much larger and aging Boomer population. Not only do entitlements breed a certain dependency but look at the popular trends today like Facebook or Twitter where young people can fool themselves into thinking they have hundreds or thousands of “friends.” They can block anyone who disagrees with them or pokes holes in their inflated self-esteem. They
can choose to show the entire world only flattering, sexy or funny photographs of themselves, speak their mind on short posts and publicly connect to big name Dan Alexander movie stars, proThoughts from fessional athletes, Behind the Pressline politicians and musicians to whom they are digitally connected. They can quickly Google search any facts as easily as asking their phone for the answer. It is a society where everyone is considered a champion, schools push underperforming students along, reality shows rule the airwaves, children who don’t fit the norm are drugged to conformity, energy drinks are the beverage of choice, video games are the great past-time and, as a nation, we keep borrowing money that this generation will someday be forced to payback. It’s great that government and the taxpayers can lend a hand when you need it, but what happens when government reaches the point they can no longer treat the masses as special and individuals are forced to fend for themselves? What happens when reality really becomes real and it’s no longer just a do-over video game or TV show? Will our youth be prepared for the challenges which surely lie ahead of them in the future? When you are young you’ve got nothing to compare to accept the events of the day. As you age you understand the difference between good times and tough times. As a nation we’ve been and continue to be on a good run economically, but at the rate we are currently spending one has to wonder how much longer the government can continue to borrow to support those who may not be up to the challenge of supporting themselves, let alone when they’ll need to support the Boomer generation.

Money available to mitigate disaster damage By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com MONTPELIER — Cities, towns, and certain non-profits in Vermont are once again eligible for taxpayer funds to help prevent future damage during natural disasters. Vermont is accepting applications for funding under the federal Hazard Mitigation Grant Program or HMGP. The program awards money to municipalities to fix public infrastructure, buyout homes and businesses, and other projects. Projects are designed to avoid damage in floods and other natural disasters. In the past these have included flood proofing, raising, or relocation of public buildings; culvert replacement and repairs to drainage systems in areas that frequently flood; buying private properties and businesses in flood prone areas; and other measures that help mitigate the human and monetary cost of future disasters. Towns and agencies in all Vermont counties are eligible to apply for the program. HMGP covers up to 75 percent of project costs; with a 25 percent local match requirement that is the responsibility of the applicant. Unlike prior HMGP funding rounds, the state is not able to commit the 25 percent local match share for property acquisitions as funding for this purpose is not certain. HMGP is funded through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and is administered by the Vermont division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security. Communities must submit a letter of intent to EMHS by Jan. 18. Completed applications are due by Feb. 1. An HMGP application can be downloaded from EMHS’s website at http://vem.vermont.gov/mitigation. or contact the State Hazard Mitigation Officer at 800-3470488 or ray.doherty@state.vt.us for an application or assistance in applying for funds. HMGP funds are awarded on a competitive basis and all applications are reviewed and selected by the state mitigation project selection committee, then subject to approval by FEMA.

Killington ‘lost skier’ incidents taxing local police resources By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com
KILLINGTON — On Jan. 8, at approximately 4:30 p.m., the Vermont State Police received two 911 calls from two skiers who had intentionally skied off the main trails at Killington Mountain and were now lost. They were identified as:Trevor Smith, 21, and Christopher Feehan, 21, both from New Jersey. The skiers became lost and had separated from each other. Smith was advising that he was not doing well as he had gotten wet during the decent. State Police began tracking the two skiers via GPS and eventually the two located each other and were being talked down when Smith began experiencing serious fatigue, became incoherent, and would not respond to State Police and ski patrol requests to keep moving. Smith eventually stopped moving, was reportedly unconscious and Killington ski patrol rapidly sent four members in via a hiking trail in Mendon. Both Smith and Feehan were eventually assisted out at approximately 10 p.m., five and a half hours after the first call to 911 and were both checked out medically and released. In less than two weeks, the new year has seen an unacceptable amount of skiers, primarily at Killington Mountain, intentionally leaving the marked trails and eventually having to call for assistance to get out of the woods. According to the Vermont State Po-

lice, such “lost skier” calls place a large drain on State Police resources. In a news statement, the VSP said it will look to work with Killington Mountain in an effort to curtail “reckless and poorly thought out acts” by
skiers “who are not physically and mentally prepared” to deal with harsh winter conditions. Other ski areas have also heard from the VSP regarding "lost skier" incidents.
Civil War medicine is focus of Charlotte historian By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com
FERRISBURGH — On an afternoon in July 1987, when I lived in Pennsylvania, I was fortunate enough to see a skilled Gettysburg re-enactor display his collection of Civil War-era medical instruments which he carried with him to an off-battlefield reenactment. In case you didn’t know, reenactments are not permitted on the hallowed ground at Gettysburg. The reenactor I saw lectured his mesmerized audience about 19th-century medicine from the back of a replica U.S. Army field ambulance. I learned that Civil War medicine isn’t pretty to contemplate. The Gettysburg re-enactor ’s vivid descriptions of sawedoff limbs and permanently maimed veterans—on both sides of America’s bloodiest conflict—kept me awake longer than I liked later that night. But if you have an interest in the primitive state of medicine during the 19th century—or would like to gain a better appreciation for the miracles of modern, western “allopathic” medicine—then you should check out “Pills and Potions, Liquor and Laudanum: Medicine in the Civil War Era” presented by the Ferrisburgh Historical Society. The society is inviting the public to attend a special presentation on the topic by local history expert Dan Cole. It will be time well spent for anyone interested in the Civil War and medical science. Cole, a resident of Charlotte, will describe and show the various medical treatments available to physicians and nurses during the war—I suppose it’s not for those with weak stomachs. Cole’s talk springs from his research with authentic letters written by wounded Vermont soldiers to their families—several from Chittenden and Addison counties. Included in Cole’s presentation, we are told, will be references to Vermonter Cassius Frederick Newell of Charlotte. According to Cole, Newell joined the ranks of the Union Army as a private at the age of 16, having run away from home to do so, and died in 1862. He was Charlotte’s first reported soldier ’s death. As with 60 percent of casualties of the Civil War, Cole said, Newell’s death was attributed not to wounds incurred in battle, but to dysentery and diarrhea. These disease were rampant among soldiers North and South With odds against a wounded soldier ’s surviving his doc-

tor ’s “dirty fingering,” it’s any wonder thousands of veterans managed to live out their lives after the war ended. “Typhus, measles, scurvy, diphtheria, and mumps were also root causes for the deaths of many soldiers,” Cole said. “Upon their return, many soldiers were emaciated, malnourished, and crippled due to the level of medical care they received. Many of those who survived to return home from battle would then have to battle chronic pain and stress throughout their remaining years.” Cole is one of the leading experts locally on the topic of Civil War medicine, so listening to him is a font of information. Cole holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in history and literature from the University of Vermont and is an active and respected freelance researcher, writer, and genealogist. Recently, Cole was honored by being invited as a guest lecturer at the Cambridge Historical Society’s Civil War Days. He was also appointed to the Vermont Governor ’s Sesquicentennial Commission. The presentation will be held at the Ferrisburgh Town Hall Community Center, Wednesday, Feb. 13, at 7 p.m. For more information, contact Gail Blasius, 425-4505.

Small Dog Electronics helps with gifts for shelter families By Lou Varricchio
newmarketpress@denpubs.com RUTLAND — Thanks to the employees of Small Dog Electronics, families in need at the Rutland County Women’s Network & Shelter had a brighter and happier Christmas than they might have expected in 2012. Small Dog Electronics, which is opening a
storefront in Rutland in spring 2013, wanted to launch the 2012 holiday season with a little special cheer and asked the RCWNS how they could help. When Jen Mayer, Small Dog’s district manager, and Kali Hilke, the Apple product firm’s director of marketing, learned that several of the children living at the emergency shelter wouldn’t be receiving any
gifts, she and her associates sprang into action. “Thanks to our friends at Small Dog, a veritable Santa’s bag of toys was delivered a few days before the holiday weekend,” said Marianne Kennedy, the shelter ’s executive director. “It really made a difference to the women and children that we serve. Just a little bit of cheer, and a sense that things can
get better, is a big help during a difficult time. We’re so grateful to Small Dog, and to all the individuals and businesses who support the important work that we do, for their help.” The Rutland County Women's Network and Shelter is non-profit human service agency dedicated to assisting survivors of domestic and sexual violence.

BARRE — Thunder Road co-owner and founder Ken Squier received the prestigious Buddy Shuman Award during the 2012 NASCAR NMP Myers Brothers Award Luncheon in Las Vegas, Nev. The award is given to an “individual who has played a key role in the continued growth and success of Cup racing.” “Ken helped bring not only a voice, but also a face, to Cup racing,” said Michael Proud, director of marketing for Federal-Mogul who sponsored the award. “During every race there are dozens of drivers out there battling for track position. He was the first to bring those drivers’ personalities into the race coverage. That was a huge step that helped make the sport much more accessible for millions of fans.” The owner of Radio Vermont and former CBS broadcaster was the 56th winner of the Buddy Shuman award. The award is in memory of former NASCAR Grand National driver and chief technical inspector Louis Grier “Buddy” Shuman, who passed away in a hotel fire in 1955. “It is such an honor to receive an award like this,” said Squier. “That was really something. I didn’t expect it.” Squier is a popular figure in the motor racing world. He is well know for deeming the Daytona 500 “The Great American Race”, and has played a key role in many motorsports innovations such as the in-car camera, as well as convincing CBS to cover the Daytona 500 beginning in 1979. The track Squier built at age 21, Thunder Road, now enters its 52nd year of operation. Squier was also the co-founder of the Motor Racing Network, which is now entering it’s 34th.

What to expect from the 2013 Vermont Legislature Gov. Peter Shumlin (D) has a sweeping program of action for Vermont’s new General Assembly, and it’s a safe bet that he’ll get ninety percent of what he wants. Here’s a quick snapshot of the leading issues: The FY14 General Fund deficit is currently estimated at $50-70 million. The governor has told agencies to level fund and absorb pay increases. The highly touted “Challenge for Change” process (2009-2011) apparently didn’t enable the state to live within its revenues, even allowing for the unexpected Tropical Storm Irene costs. Further, Congress’s resolution of the “fiscal cliff” may result in both higher taxes and large reductions in Federal spending, for instance, on Medicaid, 30 percent of Vermont’s General Fund budget. Act 48 of 2011 requires the Administration to explain by January 15 how it plans to raise as much as $3 billion a year to fund Green Mountain Care in 2017. Already the Administration is hinting that maybe everybody should just wait another year to find out, during which time the machinery of single payer will rumble forward. Gov. Shumlin will push hard for more mandates and subsidies to force Vermont toward his arbitrary goal of 90% renewable en-
ergy by 2050 and greenhouse gas emissions reduced to 50 percent of 1990 levels by the same year. He has never wavered in his peculiar belief that Vermont must show the world how to defeat the “unspeakably horrid” menace of global warming, and “claim our energy independence” – no matter what the cost. Since driving up the cost of electricity, motor fuel and heating fuel – essential if low cost energy is to be replaced with high cost renewable energy – socks the poor and middle class much more than the rich, look for new energy taxes to include a new subsidy scheme for the middle class, to compensate them for being made to pay the higher energy costs required of them to save the planet from Al Gore’s heat death. With the state and federal governments pressing hard for more electric vehicles, motor fuel revenues will increasingly take a hit. Will someone propose a new tax on electric vehicles to compensate the Transportation Fund for maintaining the roads, thereby can-
Guest Commentary
Home is a memory By J. Kirk Edwards
newmarketpress@denpubs.com Home is that special place that resides in the memory. Composed of images from childhood, it’s always with you; however, the return trail to this perception is erased like Alice’s path in Wonderland. These remembrances for some may be concrete, asphalt and stickball, others it’s tract home neighborhoods. Still again for others it is woods, fields and solitary amusements. The sentiments conjured up by “home” evoke the desires for peace and security, enjoyed only in the womb. Unfortunately, life strips away the golden fuzzies; leaving only a chiaroscuro house, not home. Note: Former Ferrisburgh, Vt., resident and New Market Press photographer J. Kirk Edwards now lives in the South.
celling out the subsidies that caused the people to buy overpriced electric vehicles in the first place? The party now in power was put there in large measure by labor unions, and for them it’s payback time. Shumlin will push through unionization of day care workers, raising the costs of day care, and unionization of home care workers, raising the costs of Medicaid. The unions will pocket all those union dues and use them to underwrite the next big unionization push. The grand $100 million Vermont State Hospital proposed in 2007 has faded away, but Shumlin is determined to build a new 25-bed psychiatric care facility in Berlin, whether FEMA will help pay for it or not. Meanwhile he is lauding the distribution of the seriously mentally ill back into “communities”. Exactly what this means is not clear, but it directly relates to the homeless population on the streets. State bureaucrats are historically allergic to (lower cost) extramural arrangements that reduce patients’ dependence on permanent control by unionized state employees. At the same time, legislatures are allergic to major new spending for mental health patient support. Shumlin has repeatedly declared his support for public school choice, but his 20112012 legislature failed to act on it. (The bill then under consideration comically allowed a student to switch public schools, but al-
lowed the sending school to keep all the money.) There’s not much likelihood that school choice will move forward in 2013, especially if Shumlin appoints anti-choice, pro-consolidation Education Commissioner Armando Vilaseca to be the first secretary of education. The basic household education property tax rate will almost certainly increase again, from 89 cents to 94 cents of grand list value (increased in each district by a spending multiplier). This is partly because local voters, undeterred by penalties, keep voting higher budgets; partly because grand lists are shrinking; and partly because in 2011 Shumlin snatched $27.5 million out of the transfer to the Education Fund to fund his other General Fund priorities. Lurking in the background is the ever growing problem of woefully underfunded obligations to retired state employees and teachers. The two funds have a $60 million annual contribution shortfall just for retiree health care expenses; the teachers’ annual expenses are simply siphoned out of their (underfunded) retirement fund. Overall, the two funds are actuarially $3 billion in the red. Just who is going to make good on these unfunded promises? Other issues – like marijuana and assisted suicide – will get lots of media coverage this year, but how the legislature grapples with the foregoing big ticket issues will strongly influence Vermont’s near-term – and perhaps long-term – future. John McClaughry is vice president of the Ethan Allen Institute.

Wood meeting
Chapman earns First-Team All-American Honors
Undefeated Tufts edges Panther women's basketball
MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury College football player Billy Chapman (Greenwich, Conn.) has been named a first-team AllAmerican by the AFCA (American Football Coaches Association). The senior tight end did not disappoint this season, setting career-bests with 61 receptions, 693 yards and eight touchdowns. He is also a two-time AllEast and All-NESCAC selection. A team captain, Chapman helped lead the team to a 71 mark in ’12, owning sole possession of second place in the NESCAC. Chapman was second only to teammate Zach Driscoll in all three receiving categories in the NESCAC, an impressive feat from his tight end position. He was twice tabbed as tight end on D3football.com’s weekly national team this season, giving him four for his career. The senior went over 100 yards four times, collecting two touchdowns in three wins. Chapman finishes third all-time at Middlebury with 135 catches and 15 touchdowns, placing sixth with 1,531 yards receiving. Chapman is also a member of the men’s lacrosse team in the spring at Middlebury.
MIDDLEBURY — Ninth-ranked Tufts used stifling defense to top Middlebury College, 54-41, in NESCAC women's basketball action on Saturday afternoon at Cousens Gym. The win moves Tufts to 13-0 on the season and 2-0 in the NESCAC. Middlebury falls to 6-5 (1-1 NESCAC). The first half was a struggle for both offenses as Tufts led 20-18 at the break. The Jumbos shot 30 percent (7-30) while the Panthers were 29 percent (7-24) from the field. Sophomore Hayley Kanner led Tufts with nine points on 4 for 8 shooting in the first 20. Middlebury's leading scorer after one stanza was junior Scarlett Kirk with six points. Junior Katie Pett had nine first-half rebounds. There were two ties and four lead changes. Kirk and junior Laura Lowry had 10 points each for Middlebury. Lowry was 3 of 6 from three-point range. Kirk added 10 rebounds to complete a double-double. Pett finished with 15 rebounds for the Panthers to go along with seven points. The Jumbos held a 45-38 rebounding edge, including 17-10 on the offensive glass.
