From the editor
Farmers and taxes Last month, the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives (NCFC) expressed strong opposition to provisions included in the recently released Unified Framework for Fixing our Broken Tax Code that would increase taxes for farmers across the country. By eliminating the Section 199 deduction that is passed down by farmer co-ops to their memberowners, money will flow from the pockets of farmers and rural communities to investment bankers on Wall Street and venture capitalists in Silicon Valley. Section 199, also known as the Domestic Production Activities Deduction was enacted as part of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and applies to proceeds from agricultural products that are manufactured, produced, grown, or extracted by farmer cooperatives, or that are marketed through coops. The great majority of farm cooperatives pass the
Guest viewpoint
benefit through directly to their farmer members. It is estimated that the deduction returns nearly $2 billion annually to rural areas in all 50 states. “Farmer co-ops have consistently supported tax reform and related policies that support economic growth in rural America as well as the broader economy,” said Chuck Conner, president and CEO of NCFC. “The elimination of the Section 199 deduction for agriculture increases the tax burden on farmers and their co-ops and obviously runs counter to that goal. In a time of continued low commodity prices, those hardworking Americans who grow our food can ill afford for Congress to pass a law that will raise their taxes. “As both the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Finance Committee begin considering detailed tax reform packages, they must preserve the Section 199 deduction
for agriculture and recognize that lower rates by themselves will not offset a loss of the deduction,” Conner continued. “It would be a strange irony indeed if a Republican Congress and a Republican president pass a law that increases taxes on America’s farmers.” Since 1929, NCFC has been the voice of America’s farmer cooperatives. Our members are regional and national farmer cooperatives, which are in turn composed of over 2,000 local farmer cooperatives across the country. NCFC members also include 26 state and regional councils of cooperatives. Farmer cooperatives allow individual farmers the ability to own and lead organizations that are essential for continued competitiveness in both the domestic and international markets. - The Eagle & NCFC ■
Wage warrior misjudges minimum wage By David Flemming Recently, Raise the Wage Coalition member Nathan Suter wrote an editorial entitled “Economic Evidence Points to Broad Benefits of a $15 Minimum.” The letter makes several dubious claims in support of Vermont raising the minimum wage to $15/hour. To make his case, Suter relies on four Berkeley studies, one of which was subjected to political interference by the pro-minimum wage Seattle mayor, and four Economic Policy Institute studies (EPI received 27% of its funding from labor unions, which often peg their contracts to a minimum wage baseline). If Vermont’s experience with a $15 minimum wage is anything like Seattle’s experience, workers are in for a rude surprise. The University of Washington discovered that Seattle businesses adapted to an increase in the minimum wave to $13 minimum wage
by reducing the hours for workers in low-wage jobs ($13-$19/hr.) by about 9 percent. The result was a loss of 14 million hours annually. Hourly wages in low-wage jobs did increase by 3 percent, but the net impact was that low-wage earners lost an average of $1,500 annually because of the cut in hours. And Seattle’s minimum wage has not even reached its zenith of $15/hour in 2021. While Suter claims that past research shows “little negative impact on employment or hours,” Vermont’s Joint Fiscal Office (JFO) estimates that Vermont’s economy will have 2,830 fewer jobs by 2028 if Vermont enacts a $15 minimum wage. The Heritage Foundation estimates that Vermont could lose as many as 11,000 jobs. It is difficult to estimate the job loss because the “academic literature” has been confined to minimum wage increases “affecting 10% or less of those employed,” according to the JFO, while the $15
minimum wage increase is projected to impact 25% of Vermont’s workforce. To compound the risk, there is the possibility that the Vermont-New Hampshire border could become what the JFO calls the “largest historical (wage) spread on record.” Should New Hampshire keep its minimum wage at $7.25 (and they show no signs of changing), this would be less than half of the proposed $15/hour minimum for Vermont. According to 2015 data from the Census Bureau, all six Vermont counties that share a border with New Hampshire have a lower median household income than the Vermont average. This suggests Vermont businesses along the border are less able than other counties in Vermont to afford a minimum wage increase. Vermont businesses will be forced to lay off workers in order to remain competitive with their New Hampshire counterparts who will have far lower labor costs.
The JFO notes that a $15 minimum wage’s “positive effects will be largely offset” by 1) lower quantities of products produced at Vermont businesses (not the “boost in business sales” Suter claims) 2) fewer federal transfer payments that the State has no control over, 3) higher Federal income and payroll tax payments for Vermont employers and workers, 4) higher local prices resulting in lower quantity demanded, and 5) an increased reliance on technology to take over work that is too expensive to pay employees to accomplish. So, far from “offset(ing) a significant portion of the higher cost for employers” as Mr. Suter claims, a $15 minimum wage would not only make Vermont employers lives more difficult, it would make the lives of Vermont workers more difficult. - David Flemming is a policy analyst at Vermont’s Ethan Allen Institute think tank. ■

MIDDLEBURY | Kittens, kittens,
I arrived at the shelter in October as a stray from Pittsford and I am so happy to be here at the shelter away from the stray life. I love having all the comforts of home right here for me instead of me having to fend for them outside on my own. At the shelter I have a warm comfy spot, all of my meals and my favorite things including toys and a scratching pad. I am currently in a cat room here at the shelter and can often be found sitting on the scratcher waiting for the next visitor.

If you’re looking for a companion to get you out the door this fall I may be your guy.
I am as handsome as they come. I am a shy fella who is looking for a patient owner who lives in a quiet household. I came to RCHS on Oct. 13 because my owners could no longer care for me. When I was with them they said I was overall a very nice fella. It is taking me some time to adjust to shelter life but hopefully I will be in my forever home soon. The staff here visits me and I do come out of my shell after a pet and scratch or two behind the ears. I am clean and use my litter pan and I love to snack on the occasional treat. ■

» Farm Program Cont. from pg. 1 Surrounded by curious cows and intrigued students, the governor shared his enthusiasm for Vermont’s highly effective model of farm to school and its unique ability to bring real-life learning to the classroom, while also supporting the economy and student health. With help from the Agency of Education, the Department of Health and other partners, more than 40,000 Vermont students have become more connected to local food, farms and their community through the Farm to School Grant Program. “Through the Agency’s grant program, more than $1M has been invested in 138 Vermont schools. It’s really connecting people to the land, the animals and giving them lifelong skills that are so valuable to all of us,” said Sec. Tebbetts. The visit highlighted the many benefits of the farm to school model:
• Every $1 spent on local food in Vermont schools contributes an additional 60 cents to the local economy. • According to 2015 Youth Risk Behavior Survey, students whose schools have a Farm-to-School program are more likely to eat at least two fruits and three vegetables a day. • Last school year Vermont schools served 46,000 meals a day, thanks to the farm to school program these meals are becoming more nutritious, helping kids eat and learn better. The program is currently accepting applications until Nov. 14. Visit agriculture.vermont.gov and search “Farm to School” to apply or contact Ali Zipparo at Alexandra. zipparo@vermont.gov or call 505-1822. ■
According to Gov. Phil Scott, for every $1 spent on local food in Vermont schools, an additional 60 cents is added to the local economy. Photo provided

Charlotte, Vermont’s whale of a fossil By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
CHARLOTTE | Before there was a Lake Champlain there was a prehistoric Lake Vermont and the Champlain Sea. In the case of the Champlain Sea, it was a deep, wide tongue of the Atlantic Ocean reaching into Vermont and New York. To give you an idea of the depth of the chilly Champlain Sea, the ancient surface was approximately 490 feet above the level of the surface of modern Lake Champlain, putting most of the modern residents of the Champlain Valley underwater. This deep lobe of the Atlantic lasted for only 2,500 years, not a very long time on the geological timescale. Between 10,000 and 13,000 years ago, most of lowland Vermont, west of the Green Mountains, was submerged under cold, subarctic waters. “At its peak,” according to Canadian geologist P.J. Barnett, “the sea extended inland as far south as Lake Champlain and somewhat farther west than the city of Ottawa, Ontario, and farther up the Ottawa River past Pembroke.” Despite the polar-like conditions, the Champlain Sea was home to a diverse population of sea creatures including marine mammals. We know this because one of the most famous fossil skeletons of the 19th century was discovered right here, in Vermont In 1849, during the construction of the first railroad line linking Rutland and Burlington, site workers exposed the bones of a large creature while digging a ten-foot-deep trench in clay on Ferry Road in Charlotte. While the railroad workers didn’t seem to care much about their find—just some old bones, they thought, probably a Colonial-era workhorse—a nearby Charlotte resident, John G. Thorp, took a keen interest; one day, while sauntering past a mound of exposed clay, Thorp observed the fragments of white bone. Thorp talked to the railroad foreman and convinced him to move his men downline, so that the clay could be examined and the bones extracted. Vermonter Wesley Alan Wright, along with former UVM geologist and author Jeff Howe, have created an online “electronic museum” about the whale fossil. Called “Charlotte,
A living beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) at the Atlanta, Ga., aquarium. This what prehistoric Charlotte the Whale looked like in life. State historical marker of fossil site near the railroad tracks in Charlotte. Whale photo by Greg Hume Marker photo courtesy of UVM
the Vermont Whale”, the website includes tidbits about the fascinating history of the fossil discovery. The website’s co-creators have a strong interest in preserving the legacy of Charlotte the Whale. Wright is a member of the Center for Teaching and Learning at the University of Vermont and Howe, a geologist, is the author of the definitive work about the fossil, titled “How Do You Get a Whale in Vermont?” In 1993, when Howe was the curator and exhibits designer of the Perkins Museum of Geology at the University of Vermont, he helped promote a bill—now a state law— designating the Charlotte whale as Vermont’s official state marine fossil (the 1848 Mount Holly woolly mammoth remains are the state’s official terrestrial state fossil). Over the years, Howe has continued to research the story
Voters to decide gas line easements By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
MIDDLEBURY | Middlebury residents will attend a special town meeting, Nov. 6-7. All legal voters of the town were warned and notified to meet at the Mary Hogan Elementary School Cafeteria-Gymnasium, located at 201 Mary Hogan Dr. on Monday, Nov. 6, at 7 p.m., for an informational meeting on Article 1, and on Tuesday, Nov. 7, from 7 a.m. through 7 p.m. at the new Middle-
bury Town Offices, 77 Main St., to vote by Australian ballot on Article 1 as provided by the Middlebury Town Charter. The text of the Article 1 on the ballot reads as follows: “Shall the legal voters of the Town of Middlebury approve the current Deed of Easement agreements as approved by the Selectboard at their meeting on June 27, 2017 and convey three land easements (one behind the town office and Ilsley library, one near Mr. Ups Restaurant, and one on Mill Street) to Vermont Gas Systems?” ■
of the famous whale; he has helped secure its place in the cultural and geologic history of the Green Mountain State. Charlotte’s scientific name is Delphinapterus leucas. It is 12 feet in length and, although ancient, is nearly identical to the modern beluga. And while its sex can’t be determined by experts, its tooth wear and bone sutures are signs that, in life, it was an adult. Today’s declining population of Beluga whales in the Gulf of St. Lawrence represent the final remnant of Champlain Sea whales, of which Charlotte was a member. You can view Vermont’s official state fossil, the original Charlotte fossil whale skeleton, on display at the University of Vermont’s Perkins Geology Museum.

Local 4-H teens visit Wisconsin From Staff & News Reports THE EAGLE
VERGENNES | Fifteen outstanding young Vermont 4-H dairy members had an opportunity to participate in the National 4-H Dairy Conference in Madison, Wisconson, this year. The event, held in conjunction with the World Dairy Exposition, took place on the University of Wisconsin campus, Oct. 1-4. More than 200 4-Hers, ages 15 to 18, from throughout the U.S. and Canada attended to learn about the dairy industry and career choices through seminars, keynote speakers and tours of dairy operations and agricultural businesses. Vermont 4-Hers who participated were Adele Biasini and Hillary Mitchell, both from Morrisville; Kelsey Cram, Whiting; Aislynn Farr, Richmond; Olyvia Fortin, Newport; Katherine Howard, East Thetford; Abagail Hurd, Hardwick; Alexis Lawson, West Burke; Maddie Nadeau, Derby; Jacob Patenaude, Derby Line; Joseph Real, Georgia; Chandra Stanley, Enosburg; and Averi Salley and Brianna and Raymond VanderWey, all from Ferrisburgh. Chaperones were Martha Seifert, University of Vermont (UVM) Extension 4-H educator; and Brian and Cindy Kayhart, Vergennes. Eligibility was based on overall 4-H dairy achievements including excellent 4-H dairy project record books and participation in county and statewide UVM Extension 4-H dairy events. Applicants also had to be enrolled for three or more years in the 4-H dairy project. The 4-Hers learned how to be advocates for dairy and the science behind dairy foods. They also had a choice of several seminars on topics ranging from dairy reproduction, genomics and farm finance to marketing dairy products and new technologies for monitoring herd health, among others.
They visited several agricultural enterprises including ABS Global, Nasco International, Crave Brothers Farm and Farmstead Cheese and Hoard’s Dairyman Magazine and its registered Guernsey farm. In addition, they toured the National Dairy Shrine Museum and attended the World Dairy Expo, an international dairy industry trade show featuring national dairy cattle shows, commercial exhibits and
expert-led seminars. Funding for the trip was provided by the State 4-H Foundation, the Vermont Dairy Industry Association and several businesses and private donors. To learn more about the Vermont 4-H dairy program, contact Wendy Sorrell, UVM Extension 4-H livestock educator, at wendy.sorrell@uvm.edu. ■

Vermont remembers the fallen, veterans By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
SHARON | Over 135 Vermonters died in the decadelong Vietnam War, their stone-etched names—along with color and monochrome photographs of their wartime experiences—stand as a lasting tribute to their blood sacrifice. When Vermont’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated at a large public gathering on Oct. 30 1982, the national wounds of the war were still largely unhealed. Two weeks after Vermont’s memorial opened in the Town of Sharon at the state’s Welcome Center along Interstate 89—the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Highway—the U.S. Vietnam Memorial Wall opened with sustained national attention. By the mid-1990s, the memorial was on the endangered list as Montpelier listed rest areas, including Sharon, on the closure list. In response to the threat to the memories of their fallen brothers and sisters, members of the Vietnam veterans of America Vermont State Council rallied to save the memorial. “On the phones, in communities, and in the halls of the State House, they reminded lawmakers of this cherished tribute. The governor and legislators listened, pledging to keep the monument in Sharon and to involve veterans in planning anew center,” according to Louise Ransom, a Gold Star mother of a Vietnam veteran at the time. “We will remember hot they looked the last time we saw them.
We will also remember the weddings never attended, the houses never built, the children never born, the fields never plowed, books never written, and the songs never song.” On Aug. 20, 2005 a new, expanded memorial was reopened—rededicated to tall the men and women from Vermont who served in the war and gave their lives in defense of democracy in the former South Vietnam. As of 2013, a record four million individuals have visited the monument and spent time in reflection. This beautiful monument honors the dead in both native Green Mountain stone and living green plants. Scrims with superb photos of Vermont soldiers, taken by award-winning Vermont photographer Jack Rowell, hang in the memorial space indoors and rotate on a video wallscreen. Outdoors, the memorial amphitheater is open year round; it is a special place for quiet meditation and reflection. Also outside, a perpetual flame flickers at the memorial. An adjoining glass-and-steel greenhouse—housing native, tropical plants of Vietnam and heated by solar and geothermal heat—gives visitors a spectacular 360-degree view of the surrounding Green Mountains and Connecticut River Valley. In such a place, it is easy to remember youth, better days and promises unfulfilled. This Veterans Day, veterans and their families will gather at the Vermont Vietnam Veterans Memorial to remember their comrades and a time, while long ago now, is never too far away. ■

Updating Vermont’s Vietnam Honor Roll RUTLAND | “Like it or not, we’re here,” Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) Chapter One’s Founding President Robert O. Muller of Rutland remembers Don Bodette and Jake Jacobsen telling him back in 1978. VVA is now 39 years old this year. How and where did it begin? Many trace the VVA’s founding to Muller, but there is more to the story than that. “We were going nuts in Washington with the legislative battles on Agent Orange and other issues,” said Muller in a recent interview. “I told him [Donny Bodette] that we just couldn’t do it. We didn’t have the time to deal
with a membership organization and chapters.” Chapter One. It sounds like a mythical entity whose story is passed from generation to generation in the oral history tradition. The fables and stories that surround these mythical entities are designed to provide an ethical and moral framework for those who follow. Chapter One is real. Chapter One is, was, and forever shall be in Rutland. Meanwhile, Chapter One of the Vietnam Veterans of America will update the Honor Roll of local veterans who served in the Vietnam War with the addition of several names in time for Veterans Day, Nov. 11.
The Honor Roll is located at the Rutland County Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Main Street Park in Rutland. The list of those who served has now grown to over 300 from an initial list of about 125. The memorial also lists the names of 18 men who were killed in action during the war. The memorial was dedicated on Memorial Day 2000. Eligible Vietnam veterans or family members are invited to submit service records by the end of October for inclusion on the memorial. The Honor Roll lists the names of those who served in Vietnam between 1959 and 1975 after
entering the military from Rutland County. Service outside of Vietnam qualifies if the person’s military record shows the Vietnam Service Medal (VSM) was awarded. A military service record, Form DD 214, is required to establish eligibility for the Honor Roll. Records may be mailed to VVA Chapter 1, 15 Wales St., Rutland, Vt. 05701. For further information call Andy Megrath, Chapter One president, at 775-1745 or Jack Crowther, secretary, at 775-1182. General information on Chapter One is available at vvachapter1.com. ■

Rutland honors veterans By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
RUTLAND | It may surprise many people to learn that 25 percent of those who die every year in the U.S. are Veterans.

Outreach Team helps Vermont vets
The Vermont Veterans Outreach Program provides ongoing assistance primarily to combat Veterans. Support is provided by identifying any potential needs and facilitating the process of accessing all available services. Partnering with the Vermont National Guard’s Family Assistance Specialists and other local, state and Federal agencies, in order to address the concerns of Veterans by responding in a prompt and confidential manner. Outreach specialists have diverse backgrounds and many of them have served in the different branches of the military. Their commonality is that they know what our veterans are facing every day. The Vermont Veterans Outreach Program has a proven track record in getting the job done-helping our veterans receive the services
they need and have earned for their service to our country. Specialists work with veterans from different eras including World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm and most recently Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Our veterans can expect to be treated with respect and be valued by the Vermont Veterans Outreach Program. “The genuine concern for the soldiers and their families is outstanding. As a first Sergeant, I asked the Outreach Program for help for my Soldiers and for my own family. In all instances, help was quickly forthcoming. My Soldiers and my family were treated with respect and compassion, and guided to resources that helped them resolve their problems. And they grew and became more self-sufficient as a result,” according to OIF in Iraq.
our l l a o t u o Thank y r the o f l e n n o s er military p u have made yo s e c fi i r c a s om. d e e r f r u for o
“I was involved in 18 IED attacks. I was a medic, and I went back out again and again. When I came home, I thought I was just having trouble adjusting. I was losing my balance, losing my temper. My wife sat me down and convinced me to call Outreach. It’s the people around you who notice something’s wrong- your family and the Soldiers you served with. My advice is, listen to them,” said another OIF. “I needed help and found it. The Outreach Program is very organized and has very caring people that work there. I am a Veteran and I needed help and found it through this Program. Thank you Outreach! I highly recommend the Outreach Program for all Soldiers. They really care about you as a person,” according to OIF in Kuwait. ■

RUTLAND | Vermont Korean War veterans dedicated a new war memorial in Rutland to mark the 60th anniversary of the longest military cease fire in history. The plain, native stone memorial—inscribed with the words “freedom is not free” — located in Main Street Park (U.S. Route 7) honors fallen and living service members of the United Nations “police action” of the early 1950s. The monument stands at the opposite end of the park from the city’s Vietnam War memorial. Recent international concerns about North Korea remind us that while the Korean War ended in 1953, the armistice between the parties involved is considered to be a cease-fire agreement only and not an actual peace treaty. United Nations forces included 178,426 dead and 32,925 missing. Approximately 2.5 million civilians were killed and wounded. North Korea claims it was the victor of the conflict. Officers and members of American Legion and Veterans of Foreign War posts, and other veteran groups including the Vermont Korean Veterans organization, tend this lasting momonument to the men and women of America’s Forgotten War. ■

Veterans Day in Vermont
ST. ALBANS | World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, Nov. 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.” Soldiers of the 353rd Infantry near a church at Stenay, Meuse in France, wait for the end of hostilities. This photo was taken at 10:58 a.m., on November 11, 1918, two minutes before the armistice ending World War I went into effect. In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: “To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has
given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…” The original concept for the celebration was for a day observed with parades and public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m. The United States Congress officially recognized the end of World War I when it passed a concurrent resolution on June 4, 1926. In 1954, Nov. 11 became a day to honor American veterans of all wars. Later that same year, President Dwight D. Eisenhower issued the first “Veterans Day Proclamation”. In 1958, the White House advised VA’s General Counsel that the 1954 designation of the VA Administrator as Chairman of the Veterans Day National Committee applied to all subsequent VA Administrators. Since March 1989 when VA was elevated to a cabinet level department, the Secretary of Veterans Affairs has served as the committee’s chairman.

Most decorated veteran remembered By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
MIDDLEBURY | Middlebury resident John Clagett died in 2013 but he is still remembered as one of Vermont’s most highly decorated U.S. Navy veterans. During World War II, Clagett commanded a P.T. boat at the Battle of Guadalcanal and was severely injured in the sinking of P.T. 111 on Feb. 1, 1943. His many accomplishments included graduating from the Naval Academy, receiving a Ph.D. from Yale University, spending three years in Norway with the diplomatic corps, and being professor emeritus of English at Middlebury College. He was a devout member of St. Stephen’s Church in Middlebury. Clagett’s hobbies included skiing, fishing and reading; he was the author of 19 fiction and non-fiction books. Several of his historical novels, including “The Slot,” “Papa Tango,” and “Typhoon 1944,” explore the lives of men—and their

The Stone family: A tradition of service By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
RUTLAND | U.S. Army Vermont National Guard Specialist Henry Stone of Rutland has served the nation faithfully since 1978. He is a member of a proud military family that can trace its roots back to the founding of Vermont and the Green Mountain Boys. Nearly every generation of Stones, including in laws, have served the nation during war and peacetime. “I left the service for a time in 1983,” he said. “A fire destroyed our family house in Castleton. I came home for recruiter duty but then left to help my family. My Dad left my Mom when I was the age of 10. So I was working and sending money home ever since.” Stone rejoined in 1998 and later served overseas during Iraqi Freedom.
The USS Cunningham’s helmsman during the Korean War was Henry Stone, Sr., father of Rutland Guardsman Henry Stone. Photo provided
“My duty was at the Iraqi border and Gulf off of Kuwait. As a mechanic, I pulled a trailer around full of grease and rags. In the desert, I was the guy who changed tires, all kinds of

tires, hundreds and hundreds of them. All of that with the temperature standing at 130 degrees. It got so hot we’d go inside a tent where it was a cool 110 degrees. Stone returned to Vermont in 2004 assigned to a hospital unit. “I requested to go back to my old unit in Rutland and have been there ever since.” Stone’s family has a storied past in the military. His father, Henry Stone, Sr. served aboard the destroyer USS Cunnigham during the Korean War. As a helmsman, the senior Stone served during the three year duration of the first Cold War conflict. “My Dad’s first cousin was Lou Stone and he served in Korea with the U.S. Army from Oklahoma. He died on Heartbreak Ridge. At the time,my father didn’t even know he was in Korea.” Stone’s stepfather, Ned N. Hayes, also served in the U.S. Army Air Force in Texas. “I don’t have much information about him in the Air Force,” he said. A decade later, Stone’s Uncle Earle served in Vietnam. He has also traced his family’s service going back to the American Revolution. “Then there’s my grandfather PFC Alpha Stone. He served in World War 1 was later Pres-
ident Harry Truman in the Missouri-Kansas National Guard, Battery A Company. He also served with the famous Sgt. Alvin York.” York received the Medal of Honor for leading an attack which saw him seizing 35 machine guns, killing 25 German soldiers, and capturing 132. “Alpha Stone was in the Battle of the Argonne Forest in 1918. The battle lasted until the last day of the war. It cost 28,000 German lives and 26,277 American lives. He remained in uniform for 20 years. He died before I was born,” Stone said. Going back even more in time, Stone said that his ancestor Gregory Stone was a member of the Green Mountain Boys. “Then there’s Gardener William Stone from Fitzwilliam, N.H. He was a Puritan. He married a few times and that branch of the family moved west which explains how I, a Midwesterner, returned to my Vermont roots. Stone said his mother became a Mormon when he was a child. She had discovered that the family was also related to both founder Joseph Smith and Brigham Young, both cousins many times removed. “I love genealogical research. I’ve learned a lot about my family’s long and proud service to the nation.” ■

Former students recall integration From College News Reports MIDDLEBURY | Four adults gathered at Middlebury College last week for a conversation about their experiences when Jones County, N.C., integrated its public schools in 1968. At the event, “How I Shed My Skin: Fifty Years Later,” the group shared their recollections of their time as white and black students and former classmates. In the fall of 1968, Dorrine Rose, Fernanda Copeland, and Rose Strayhorn, three black girls, entered the all-white sixth grade classroom at Alex H. White Elementary School in Pollocksville, N.C. That village, like all the towns, hamlets, and cities in eastern North Carolina, remained a segregated enclave governed by the same Jim Crow laws that had been in place for generations. The legacy of slavery,
war, and reconstruction provided the backdrop for the segregated social order. Rose, Copeland, and Strayhorn participated in a conversation with Jim Grimsley, whose memoir, “How I Shed My Skin: Unlearning the Racist Lessons of a Southern Childhood”, tells the story of the three women and their impact on him, a white boy in that sixth-grade classroom who found himself confronted with his own ideas about race and difference by the presence of three black girls. Grimsley first spoke at Middlebury last year about his experience of school desegregation in the south. Last week’s event with Grimsley, Rose, Copeland, and Strayhorn was part of the college’s Critical Conversations series and was sponsored by the Alliance for an Inclusive Middlebury at Wilson Hall in the McCullough Student Center. ■

Neighbors along Halladay Road in Middlebury pitched in to remove a downed white pine tree across the right-of-way while waiting for a Green Mountain Power crew. Another tree and snapped utility pole on the road had traffic detoured to Route 7. Power outages and downed trees were extensive around the region. Photos by Lou Varricchio » Windstorm Cont. from pg. 1 By Lou Varricchio STA FF W RITER
MIDDLEBURY | A storm front hundreds of miles in length, stretching from Pennsylvania through Quebec converged with a fast moving tropical disturbance, as it passed off the New England coast Sunday night, to create heavy rain, some scattered lake effect snow, and high, damaging winds. The National Weather Service had issued a high wind warning as early as last Friday for areas of Vermont covering Sunday into Monday. Southeast winds uo to 80 miles per hour with gusts up to 60 hit Addison, Rutland and Chittenden counties.
The tropical storm-like winds brought with them plenty of downed trees, tree limbs, and power lines causing scattered power outages. The winds also carried flying debris at dangerous speeds, from ubiquitous maple seeds to backyard hot-tub covers. More than 45,000 homes and businesses were affected leaving more than 112,500 Green Mountain Power customers, in all, without power across the state. “When you include all Vermonters served by other utilities, it’s about one-third of Vermonters affected by the storm without power,” Mark Bosma of Vermont Emergency Management said. “Conditions are extremely dangerous and many poles are broken, making repairs slow. More wind expected Monday afternoon were expected to cause additional outages. Crews warn the public to stay clear of downed
trees and power lines and call 911 if you see a line down.” Until the weather event was over, Bosma continued the warning. “Homeowners, renters, and business owners are encouraged to remove or secure anything from outdoor areas that could be blown around in high winds and create a hazard. Protect your home by asking neighbors to do the same,” he added. Bosma said that Vermont residents should monitor forecasts, social media, and traditional media for updates on conditions and warnings. Around the Middlebury area on Monday residents who lost power during the night headed out early for places such as Maple Fields convenience store in East Middlebury to get their morning coffee and pastry. If you lost power or need shelter call 2-1-1. ■

Soccer to Connecticut College for NESCAC Quarters MIDDLEBURY | The fifth-seeded Middlebury men’s soccer team began the quest for its fourth NESCAC Championship when it travels to fourth-seeded Connecticut College last Saturday for a quarterfinal matchup. Tufts was the top seed for the first time since 2014. Amherst and Bowdoin rounded out the quarterfinal hosts. The highest remaining seed following Saturday’s action will host the semifinals and final on Nov. 4-5. One matchup of the quarterfinal round
featured no. 4 Connecticut College (9-2-4, 4-2-4 NESCAC) versus no. 5 Middlebury (10-5-0, 5-5-0 NESCAC). The Camels, who are in search of their first NESCAC title, are hosting a quarterfinal match for the second time in three years. Connecticut College earned a top-four seed thanks to a potent offense that has produced 31 goals, while allowing just nine markers (0.56 GAA). The Panthers earned the fifth seed following a 1-0 victory over Williams in the regular-season finale. Middlebury enters the postseason having
won four of its last five games and has eight shutouts on the year. The Panthers, who own three NESCAC Championships, have advanced to the semifinals 15 times, including 2006, the last time they were the no. 5 seed. Connecticut College posted a 2-1 road win at Middlebury in the second game of the season. The Camels and the Panthers last mett ials in the postseason in the 2007 quarterfinals with the Panthers posting a 3-0 victory. y.•■

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont (BCBSVT) is happy to be able to engage directly with Vermonters again this year. We can help businesses with up to 100 employees enroll in qualified health plans or provide other guidance. Reach us online, by phone or in person in Berlin or at South Burlington’s Blue Mall.
Three steps to coverage for small businesses If you own or manage a business with up to 100 employees (including full-time employee equivalents), you can purchase qualified health plans directly from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont. Follow these steps and our team will make sure your coverage meets Affordable Care Act and state law requirements.
We’ll see you through.
Published by New Market Press, Inc.
1.
Decide: Keep things the same or change them? If you’re currently with us and want to offer the same plan or plans you offer now, you don’t need to do a thing. If you want to change your BCBSVT plan offerings, our online Employer Resource Center offers easy-to-use tools to help you compare our plans. If you don’t currently offer a Blue plan, please take a look at our plans at www.bcbsvt.com/find-a-plan.

Decide on plans and your contribution level. You can offer employees their choice of BCBSVT plans. In fact, we place no limits on the number of plans you may offer, no matter the size of your group. Of course, the choice is up to you. You may decide to offer one plan or all available plans. No matter how many plans you offer, you set the contribution level that works for your business.
