Being Rusty DeWees: The real Logger By Lou Varricchio lou@addison-eagle.com

MIDDLEBURY Ñ HereÕ s Rusty. Rusty DeWeesÑ better known to area residents as the Logger. The Vermont actor, humorist and impresario has appeared on stage and screen, but recently, heÕ s returned to his rootsÑ live performance. As a teen, DeWees attended Stowe High School, played well on the basketball court, and became an eager entertainer in several high school musicals. After graduating high school, according to DeWeesÕ s own biographical account, he worked as a school bus driver, basketball coach, stonemason and logger. Yes, the Logger wasÑ at least for a short timeÑ a genuine logger. Former Champlain College Head Coach Bob Tipson recruited the tall, slim athlete to play basketball on the junior collegeÕ s storied team. After graduating, DeWees found employment as a self-described “gas jockey” in Burlington. Despite a college education, DeWees has al-
ways been drawn to the simplicity and honesty of the blue collar life. In 1989, the world changed and set DeWees upon a new career path. He moved to New York City and found work for the auction house of William Doyle Galleries. The steady job supported him while he auditioned for T.V. series, films, commercials and soap operas. Developing his special talent for storytelling wasn’t difficult for the performer, either. A book, titled “Scrawlins”, showcases DeWeesÕ humor and sense of place and nostalgia. “Scrawlins” is a compilation of short stories and essays, many taken from his early 2000s weekly newspaper column in The Eagle. DeWees believes in giving back to the community and has helped with a number of regional charities such as the Make-a-Wish Foundation, Meals on Wheels, and the Ronald McDonald House. We spent a morning with DeWees at The Eagle office in Middlebury last week to learn more about the witty man behind the Logger. Eagle: So howÕ s Rusty DeWees doing?

Beaney stepping down from Midd hockey program From Middlebury College News Reports
MIDDLEBURY Ñ Legendary Middlebury College Coach Bill Beaney, the NCAA career leader in Division III menÕ s hockey coaching wins, announced that he is stepping down as head coach of the menÕ s hockey program after one of the most successful careers in collegiate history. At a press conference March 4 on the Middlebury College campus, the coach of eight national championship teams recalled his years of coaching as “a wonderful journey full of challenges and opportunities.” Beaney earned his 600th win on February 7 and finishes his stellar career with a record of 602-260-59 (.696). He spent 28 of his 35 seasons at the helm of MiddleburyÕ s menÕ s hockey program, where he posted a record of 516-184-51 (.721). He led the team to a total of eight NCAA championships, including a record five in a row from 1995-99, with three additional titles from 2004-06. “I have been truly blessed to have had the chance to coach at Middlebury College, a place that believes deeply in the concept of the student-athlete,” said Beaney. “A coach is only one part of a successful program. It requires the commitment of the entire institution, from the president to the director of athletics, from the faculty to the entire coaching staff, and of course to the quality and character of the players.” Beaney, though best known for his success on the ice, will remain on staff as the head coach of the menÕ s golf program, which he has led for the last 21 years, while also taking on other duties within the department. “Bill has had a tremendous and impactful career as a hockey coach,” said Director of Athletics Erin Quinn. “He is one of the most successful hockey coaches in terms of wins and championships, but that only begins to illustrate his success. The true measure of his success is the impact he has had on the young men who have played for him at Middlebury.” Middlebury President Ronald Liebowitz called Beaney a “Middlebury legend” who will be missed by the campus community and the many alumni who have played for him and cheered on his teams. “For a generation of Middlebury students, Bill’s name has become synonymous with Middlebury men’s hockey,” said Liebowitz. “Today we all honor him for his service to the college, the surrounding community and to amateur hockey, to which he has given so much.” After taking over the hockey program in 1986, BeaneyÕ s teams qualified for 13 consecutive NCAA tournaments from 1995-2007
(winning eight of those) and won eight NESCAC championships. His 1996 national champion squad set school records for most wins in a season (26), highest winning percentage (.929), and longest unbeaten streak (29 games). He has also led the team to six ECAC Tournament appearances, with a championship in the 1990-91 season. The school record for wins was broken by the 2003-04 team with 27. Kent Hughes Õ 92, who played forward and was a team captain under Beaney at Middlebury College, said “Coach Beaney was the best coach I ever played for, and was one of the best college coaches of his generation at any level. Not only is he a great teacher of the game, but also he taught us how to win the right way, with sportsmanship, class and as a team. It takes incredible leadership to steward a team to as many championships as coach Beaney did. Without looking back at the individual scores, I suspect that there were multiple one or two goal games in each championship run, where his presence behind the bench was the difference between a great season and a championship season.” “It’s always dangerous to measure one’s success numerically,” said Beaney. “I would hope that most coaches look beyond wins and losses. Hopefully, youÕ ve had a chance to have a little bit of impact on some people in the important facets of life. ThatÕ s what drives you every day Ð to see the young people grow and learn how to make good decisions, to solve problems and deal with adversity. I think that’s how perhaps you measure your success.” NESCAC rival Amherst College menÕ s hockey coach Jack Arena praised Beaney upon hearing the news of his decision: “Hockey will miss Bill. He made us all better by establishing a level of excellence that weÕ ve had to strive to match or risk being left behind. Not only did his teams win championships, but they did so playing the right way and always represented Middlebury in a way that made the college and community proud. His record speaks for itself, but his legacy will be measured by the number of people he’s influenced. In the hockey world, his innovative style of play and approach to coaching has changed the way the game is taught.” At Middlebury, Beaney was selected as the New England Coach of the Year in 1989, 1991, 1995 and 2006. He also earned the Edward Jeremiah Award as the National Coach of the Year in 1990, 1995, 2004 and 2006. In 1998-99, he was named the USOC National Hockey Coach of the Year. His successes with the Panther menÕ s golf team have been noteworthy as well. He currently has the team in the midst of its most successful stretch in school history. Over the past eight seasons,
the Panthers have won the NESCAC Championship on five different occasions (2007, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014), advancing to the NCAA Tournament in each of those five seasons. Aside from coaching, Beaney has been involved in several other areas of Middlebury College life. His J-term class has been a favorite of students with a waiting list of interested atCoach Bill Beaney tendees each year. The class, Middlebury College photo which is expected to return in January 2016, brings in a number of well-known guest speakers each year. He also served as the schoolÕ s womenÕ s soccer coach from 1987-1993. Beaney was also heavily involved with USA Hockey. He served as the head coach of the U.S. WomenÕ s Junior National team in 1996 and 1997. From 1985-97, Beaney coached USA HockeyÕ s Junior Olympic team, while serving as an assistant coach for the 1994 U.S. Junior National team. In the summer of 1993, Beaney served as head coach of the gold medal East Team at the Olympic Festival in San Antonio. In addition to his duties with USA Hockey, Beaney was a member of the NCAA Hockey selection committee for six years. “I will still be involved with hockey through the USA program as well as spending more time creating programs and mentoring for youth and high school players and coaches through outreach initiatives locally,” said Beaney. The Lake Placid, N.Y., native attended the University of New Hampshire, where he played four years of varsity hockey and captained the 1973 team. He began his coaching career in 1974 at Bellows Free Academy (Vermont), leading his teams to three straight championships. He then moved to the college ranks, taking over the reins at New England College in 1979. He promptly led his teams to four-consecutive ECAC Tournaments and one NCAA berth. He was named the New England Coach of the Year in 198182 and 1983-84 at New England College. He was also recently named to the Olympic Regional Development AuthorityÕ s board of directors in his hometown of Lake Placid, N.Y. Quinn said that the college would begin a search for a new coach soon.

Publisher’s Column
From the Editor
or those of us who grew up as fans of televisionÕ s original “Star Trek” during the 1960s, the news last month of 83-year-old actor Leonard NimoyÕ s death struck an especially sad note. While he lived a long and prosperous life as a popular screen and stage actor (as well as a fine-arts photographer), Nimoy will always be remembered for his best roll--the roll which warped him into interstellar superfame: Mr. Spock. In case youÕ ve lived under a pop cultural rock, Spock first appeared in 1966 as the half-human, half-alien science officer serving aboard the fanciful, 23nd-century starship, U.S.S. Enterprise. While Nimoy wrestled with Mr. Spock’s fame, expressing his conflicted emotions about playing the character-on both T.V. and later big screen film-in his two bestselling autobiographies, titled “I am Not Spock” and later “I am Spock”, fans had already made up their minds. NimoyÕ s dramatic talents, along with the words he uttered, penned by various screenwriters--including the characterÕ s creator Gene Roddenberry-made Mr. Spock the most memorable, fictional, deep-thinking person’s character since author Arthur Conan Doyle created logical detective Sherlock Holmes in 1887. Spock’s fictional alien philosophy echoed those of the ancient Greek stoics. Apparently agnostic and rooted firmly in the cosmosof an experiental reality, here and now, Spock was the quintessential scientist. Self-proclaimed at being removed from emotion yet brilliant in his observations of emotion. Of course, fans knew that just beneath the supermind of SpockÕ s intellect was his very conflicted human side. In being able to wrestle with the two on screen, Nimoy portrayed a character that will live on, at least for as long as the “Star Trek” legacy is available in a video format.

Cutting prison ed is shortsighted
T
he Community High School of Vermont (CHSVT) is the fully licensed and accredited high school and vocational training and certification program for inmates in VermontÕ s corrections system. For many students, it is the only opportunity they will have to acquire the academic, social and technical skills they need to get a jobÑ and to be able to contribute to our state in a positive wayÑ when they reenter the community. The administration of Gov. Peter Shumlin was no doubt searching for budget cuts that impact the fewest Vermonters. That makes educational programs for inmates are inviting targets. After all, who wants to defend convicts over legitimate budgetary demands of other, more influential and less controversial constituencies? We do. Here is why: The economic and social value of CHSVT and its programs is significant. The money you invest in it as a taxpayer produces a meaningful and measurable return. The school has about 650 students Ð 504 enrolled students, plus an additional 150 students participating in workshops, seminars and internships. Last year, students earned 332 trade certificates and more than three-dozen students completed high
school. CHSVT also provides remedial services for inmates who graduated from the public high school system, but who still have startling academic needs in core areas like reading, writing and mathematics. VermontÕ s prison education and training programs are one of the most effective tools the state has for preventing repeat offenders. In fact, a 2014 study by the Rand Corporation (How Effective is Corrections Education and Where Do We Go from Here) analyzed 30 years of research about corrections education programs and noted, “on average, every dollar spent on prison education programs results in a savings of four to five dollars in the cost of re-incarcerating prisonersÉ due to lower recidivism rates.” In other words, those who participate in these programs are much less likely to return to prison. Instead of returning to jail, CHSVT students return to their communities with the social and technical skills to move forward. Through employment they generate tax revenue that helps to reimburse us for the cost of their incarceration and invest in other services. Most importantly, these students are able to care for themselves and their families (they frequently have children) in a way that helps to break the multi-generational cycles of poverty and crime. This is why a corps of retired teachers founded the school. And every Vermonter understands that
thereÕ s no better anti-poverty, anti-drug and anti-crime tool than a good education. The administrators and faculty continuously enhance the school’s efficiency and productivity. Over the last several years CHSVT has reduced spending by more than $1 million, while sustaining its results. Nevertheless, CHSVT has shouldered a lopsided share of budget cuts required throughout state government, in fiscal years when overall state spending increased about 5 percent each year. The governorÕ s proposal guarantees that more inmates are returned to our communities without the skills they need to get their lives Ð and the lives of their children Ð on a stable and successful path. The Legislature should not support this debilitating cut.

Letters to the Editor
It’s Time for a Carbon Tax To the Editor: Energy Independent Vermont recently proposed adopting a revenue neutral carbon tax in Vermont. The concept is simple. Tax what you donÕ t want Ð carbon pollution Ð to drive demand for cleaner, carbon-free forms of heat, transportation and electricity. As a mother who wants to leave my daughters a healthy planet and a sustainable economy, I support a carbon tax because it is the best way to achieve both. Critics contend a carbon tax would bring economic stress. Yet research indicates that a revenue neutral carbon tax could actually strengthen our economy. According to a Dec. 5, 2013, New York Times article, “Mainstream economists have long agreed that putting a price on carbon pollution is the most effective way to fight global warming.” Even Exxon MobilÕ s website views a revenue neutral carbon tax favorably: “We believe this approach ensures a uniform and predictable cost of carbon, lets market prices drive solutions, maximizes transparency to stakeholders, reduces administrative complexity, promotes global participation, and is easily adjusted to future developments in climate science and policy impacts.” Exxon Mobile is not alone. There are dozens of other successful US corporations, including Wal- Mart, DuPont, General Electric, Google, and Walt Disney, that are already including a price
on carbon into their long-term strategic planning process. They see the writing on the wall. A carbon tax makes sense for Vermont. ItÕ s a relatively simple, market-based solution to a serious economic and environmental challenge. Vermont wonÕ t solve this all on our own, but we can be part of the solution and follow British ColumbiaÕ s lead. Since instituting their revenue- neutral carbon tax in 2008, fuel use in BC has dropped by 16% and their economy has slightly outperformed the rest of Canada. In other words, itÕ s working. LetÕ s do this, Vermont! Support a carbon tax and so we can build a better energy future and a brighter Vermont. Today. Wendy McArdle Bristol
Nutrition panel tells all To the Editor: The U.S. Advisory Panel on Dietary Guidelines has finally mustered the courage to recommend that Americans eat less meat and dairy products. And not just to lower our risk of heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, and obesity, but also because it slows the rate of climate changes, with its own devastating consequences.
The 572-page report released on Thursday notes that half of all Americans have preventable diet-related chronic diseases and that two-thirds of adults and one-third of children are overweight. It concludes that a dietary pattern higher in plant-based foods and lower in animal-based foods is more health promoting and associated with lesser environmental impact than the current U.S. diet. The 1977 recommendation that Americans eat less meat by the Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs was quashed by the meat industry, and subsequent dietary guidelines panels have been very cautious. The 2010 dietary guidelines panel merely shoved meat and dairy off the official MyPlate icon, representing the U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Though the experts have now told the truth, our familyÕ s health is still up to us. Fortunately, local supermarkets offer a variety of meat and dairy-free options and the Internet has lots of advice on vegan recipes and transition tips. Gunner Mickelson Cornwall

YouÕ ll need to have them up-todate on their rabies shot so please check with your veterinarian and make an appointment, if necessary. Did you know that Vermont state law requires all cats to have their rabies shots, too? If youÕ re not sure, please check with your vet to make sure your dog and cat are up to date on their shots.

IÕ m a playful gal who is full of energy. I love to play with toys and be where the action is. You may notice that I only have three legs and my tail was partially amputated. You see I was hit by a car before I arrived at RCHS so I had to get fixed up. Having only three legs doesn’t slow my down at all.” MOJO 10 month old. Neutered Male.

howder is a handsome, 5 • year old Large Mix breed who came to Homeward Bound near the end of February. He was transferred to us from another Vermont shelter as he had been there close to a year and needed some new experiences. We are hoping that with this transition, we can help Chowder find his forever home! The staff at the other shelter told us that he is a super clean guy, is eager to go on walks, and loves to play! Since being here, we have been able to see all of this in Chowder! He has a favorite stuffed animal that he came with that he loves to toss around, likes chasing tennis balls, and playing tug of war. He likes being able to play outside (especially if his human friends go out with him!) and going for long walks. Chowder is reactive to other dogs and smaller animals, so it is necessary that he go to a home where he is the only furry family member. He is a rambunctious dog and will require close supervision around small children. He does know some basic obedience commands such as Sit, Down, Paw, and Stay and is a great listener. Stop by the shelter to meet this amazing guy. You are sure to fall in love with him, we have. Adoption Center Homeward Bound, Addison CountyÕ s Humane Society 236 Boardman St. Middlebury, Vt.

Midd Girls Hockey Team wraps up season By Lou Varricchio
lou@addison-eagle.com MIDDLEBURY Ñ The Eagle salutes MiddleburyÕ s girl hockey players. While winning isnÕ t everything, these young athletes deserve accolades for their sportsmanship and dedicated play throughout the season. According to Karen White, “Five of the girls have been playing hockey with each other since they were very little. Erika Carroll drives from Proctor to play with these girls and she has been doing this for the past three years.” Player Carey Anne HowlettÕ s father, Tim Howlett, has coached these girls since the team first started playing hockey. Coach HowlettÕ s daughter, Carey-Anne, is the last of the five girls in his family to play hockey. “All of these girls on this team were the winners of last yearÕ s Division II title and were lucky enough to make it to the Gutt and play in the Division 1 championship game,” according to White. “I don’t believe this has ever happened in history. They deserve some recognition.” Indeed they do. Pictured at right: Middlebury hockey senior girls Carey Ann Howlett, Baily Ryan, Harper Smith, Angela Caraone, Alli White, Erika Carroll at the end of the 2014-15 season.

Vermont Watchdog Report From page 1
per-ounce tax on sugary drinks. Sponsored by state Rep. Alison Clarkson, D-Woodstock, H.235 aims to raise about $34 million by taxing beverages like soda, fruit juice, teas and sports drinks. While the tax would help fund VermontÕ s budget obesity, the bill claims to be a solution to a personal obesity crisis. ClarksonÕ s legislation reads like a warning from the World Health Organization: “Vermont is facing a serious public health crisis as the incidence of preventable illnesses related to obesity, such as Type II diabetes, heart disease, and many forms of cancer rise with overall rates of obesity in VermontÕ s populationÉ There is overwhelming scientific evidence that consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages is directly linked to the incidence of obesity, obesity-related diseases, and dental caries.” The proposed legislative solution is to give the state two pennies for every single ounce of “sugar sweetened” liquid sold in stores. Far from being a solution to a public health crisis, a new study finds that sin taxes like those proposed in H235 take money from the poor while doing nothing to curb consumption. The study, “Regressive Effects: Causes and Consequences of Selective Consumption Taxation,” examined the impact of price hikes on commonly sin-taxed food products. Of 12 items examined in the economic study, which ranged from soda and alcohol to donuts and chips, none saw a significant change in consumption based on the consumersÕ purchasing power. While alcohol spending correlated slightly with consumer purchasing power, spending on other items showed little to no correlation. Moreover, the economists conclude that sin taxes are regressive in nature, since low-income Americans consume sugary foods and beverages at disproportionate levels. “Because the types of goods targeted by these taxes have relatively inelastic demand Ñ meaning consumers will keep purchasing them regardless of increases in price Ñ the taxes are regressive in nature,” researchers wrote in the report summary.

The authors expressed concern that such taxes would serve to increase the plight of the poor. “Individuals who continue to purchase ‘unhealthy’ items after a tax has been levied or raised will see a decline in their disposable income Ñ the money they have available for spending on

From page 1 Eagle: YouÕ ve made the Logger a household name in the North Country. The humorous character represents the rugged, do-it-yourself, blue collar VermonterÑ actually he represents the idealized backwoods man. Everyone associates you with this quintessential Vermonter. Are you a native of Vermont? DeWees: “I was not born in Vermont. My parents are from the Philadelphia area and I was born there. My family vacationed in Stowe. They liked it so much they moved there when I was age 7. So, I lived in Vermont most of my life. Stowe was dreamland Americana, a fantasyland to grow up in. Today, Stowe is known as a touristy place, but when I was growing it, it was old Vermont.” Eagle: How normal was life for the LoggerÑ Rusty DeWeesÑ growing up? DeWees: “My father was a Greyhound bus driver. When he transferred here from Philly, he got the Montreal to New York City route. My mother worked as business manager for The Stowe Reporter newspaper for many years. She did everythingÑ sheÕ d even bundle up the papers for the post office. I grew up working for the paper and helping my Mom. Later, my parents moved to Elmore, Vt. That’s where I live now.” Eagle: You spent a lot time in New York City to follow your dream. DeWees: “I’ve been back in Vermont since the year 2000. After my first Logger video, I decided to devote my attention to the character full time.

other goods — making it more difficult for them to climb out of poverty,” the researchers added. The researchers suggest educating the public about healthy diets as a more sensible and moral option for addressing obesity. Contact Bruce Parker at bparker@watchdog.org.
I was 40 and I was going back and forth a lot. I was doing T.V. and film work—”Saturday Night Live”, “Law and Order”, “Cosby Mysteries”, and lots of soap operas—”As the World Turns”, “All My Children”, “The Guiding Light”, then a public television sitcom, “Windy Acres” in Vermont, even national T.V. commercials for Chevrolet, Radio Shack, Coke, WendyÕ s. I appeared in films, too, such as “The Devil’s Own” with Harrison Ford and Brad Pitt, “Black Dog”, “Pieces of April” with Katie Holmes, and many of Jay Craven’s and David Giancola’s films. I was going to be in “Illegal Aliens” with Anna Nicole Smith but there was scheduling conflict. “Anyhow, my first Logger video—I sold 12,000 tapes in 1998—convinced me to focus on that. I liked writing stories, too; people were laughing at my story telling, like when I was a concrete worker at age 18. I was selling videos, producing, sweeping up the theater after my shows. I was doing it all. That was so much more interesting to me than anything else.” Eagle: When did you discover you had a talent for acting and comedy? DeWees: “In Erdenheim, Pa., when I was six years old, I appeared in a Christmas nativity play at my parents church. I had one line to speak on stage and I didnÕ t say it. The teacher whispered it from the off stage wings, but I still wouldnÕ t say it. I was very nervous, but the audience that it was funny. I dug itÑ the laughter. After the show, parents came up and then I uttered my line.” •To be continued• EditorÕ s note: An expanded version of this interview will appear in the Spring 2015 edition of (free) North Country Living magazine in local stores the week of April 5.
Gov. Keyser
From page 1 victory marked the first time Republicans had lost the governorship since the founding of the Republican Party in Addison Couny during the 1850s and as of 2013 is the last time an incumbent Governor of Vermont has been defeated for reelection. From 1965 to 1970, Keyser was general counsel for the Vermont Marble Company, and he was Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board from 1970 to 1979. From 1967 to 1972, he was on the board of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and he was a director of the Central Vermont Public Service Corporation and chairman of the board. In 1980 he organized the Rutland law office of Keyser and Crowley. Keyser also served as a director of the Union Mutual of Vermont insurance company. He died at his daughterÕ s home in Brandon on March 7 at the age of 87. He will be buried at Highland Cemetery in Chelsea.
