After 74 years, Pearl Harbor


memories still bring tears

Troop B
spruce-up tells
public, Were
here for you

By Karen Bartomioli

By Karen Bartomioli

NORTH CANAAN While


its vintage neon sign continues to
get a complete makeover, Troop
B commander Lt. Bill Baldwin
continues his crusade to spruce
up the barracks and boost morale there.
The three-story brick building was built in the 1940s and
includes a dormitory where state
troopers used to sleep during
shifts that spanned several days
in a row.
Baldwin, who was a rookie
trooper here 30 years ago, said
the building and grounds should
send a message to the community
that this is a place where public
safety is assured.
There has been some instability and anxiety surrounding the
troop in recent years. First came
rumors that the building would
be closed down, following the
transfer of dispatch services to
Troop L in Litchfield.
Then in September, former
civilian dispatcher Brian Johnson
was shot in his North Canaan
home during a domestic dispute.
Johnson worked at Troop B for
27 years before retiring in 2003
to care for his elderly parents.
In June 2013, Catherine
Cappy Tatsapaugh, also a
retired civilian dispatcher died
unexpectedly.
She is remembered as mom
by the troopers. She welcomed
them to her North Canaan home
and brought home-cooked meals
to the barracks. She worked there
for 22 years.
Two flowering fruit trees were
recently planted at the barracks
in honor of both Tatsapaugh and

Three area restaurants


are closing this month
By Cynthia Hochswender
MILLERTON Two Millerton restaurants have closed
or are closing this month. And
Lakevilles Pastorale has closed
(for that story, turn to Page A3).
On Main Street, No. 9
restaurant has closed. On
Route 44, the McDonalds
restaurant will close as of Jan. 1.
Last fall, Four Brothers
restaurant chain co-founder
Peter Stefanopoulos purchased
the Main Street building that
has been home most recently
to the No. 9 restaurant and inn.
Stefanopoulos had said at
that point that Tim and Taryn
Cocheo, who owned No. 9,
would remain there as tenants.
Last month, however, the
Cocheos closed their business

and moved to Vermont.


Stefanopoulos, who also
owns The Boathouse in Lakeville, said hes already hired the
best chef and is mapping out
new architecture and design
for a replacement restaurant.
He hopes to open next
spring. So far, theres no official
name.
As for the McDonalds, it is
owned by the parent corporation, not a local franchise. A
request to the corporate public
relations department had not
been answered by press time.
According to a worker at
the restaurant, at this point
there is no new business expected to take the place of the
McDonalds. The building
had previously been home to
a Burger King.

MILLBROOK On the morning of Saturday, Dec. 5, an accident claimed the life of Millbrook School Athletic Director Edward
Allen, 32, and injured his two daughters, 3-year-old Codie and
1-year-old Tatum.
According to the Dutchess County Sheriff s Office, both children
were taken to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital, then were airlifted
to Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, one with life-threatening injuries. The accident occurred on Route 44, 4 miles from the
Millbrook School.
The car was traveling west on Route 44 when Allens 2006 BMW
X5 crossed the line and was hit head-on by a dump truck that was
headed east. The SUV was pushed off the road. The truck, driven

MILLERTON For Sandy


Berger, the little village of Millerton was like the memory of
Rosebud in the film Citizen
Kane. It was a small but mighty
part of his life, the place that
shaped him into the man he
later became.
Berger died Dec. 2, 2015, at
home in Washington, D.C., from
a cancer of the bile duct that had
been diagnosed about a year ago.
He was 70.
Sandy was my cousin, so
even though its not newspaper
style, Im going to refer to him
for the rest of this article by his
first name.
Sandy was an important person important enough that
there were feature articles on
him in the New York Times and
Washington Post within hours
of his death. The announcement
of his passing came from his
business partner, Madeleine K.
Albright, the former secretary of
state. She and Sandy had served
together in the Clinton administration. Sandy was first the
deputy national security adviser
under Anthony Lake and then the
national security adviser during
Clintons second term. You can
read about that in the national
newspapers.
But what was important to
him was the little village of Millerton in Dutchess County, which

crowd that gathered as the sun
set on the Doughboy Monument
in North Canaan on Monday,
Dec. 7, was appreciative of the
nice weather and the daylight
start to the ceremony.
But they would have been
there no matter what the conditions, as they have come in recent
years to honor the veterans of
the Dec. 7, 1941, attack on Pearl
Harbor. Americas involvement
in World War II followed the
surprise attack that killed more
than 2,000 Americans, most of
them Navy sailors.
It is especially poignant here,
where the town counts among
its residents one of those survivors: Isadore Izzy Tadiello.
He is 94, but still comes out to
the ceremony, with the help of
his son, Bill, and this year with

Kent photographer Alexander Kearney journeyed north to Salisbury and spotted this fox sparrow at Mary V. Peters Park
on Long Pond (Lake Wononpakook) last month. This is another one of those types of birds that is not a common bird to
be seen in this area of Connecticut, except during migration, and even then many people do not get an opportunity to enjoy
their presence, he said.

Honors for efforts of trooper, other police


Troop B State Police and Winsted Police Department officers
were recently commended for
outstanding service.
Trooper First Class Christopher
Sorrell, the Salisbury resident state
trooper, received the Medal for
Outstanding Service for tenacity
and dedication in the investigation of a theft and the fire set to
cover it up.
Three days after a March 2014
fire at a Salisbury home, according to the press release about the
award, the homeowner contacted
Sorrell about a coin and cash collection missing from the attic area
where the fire occurred. The collection was worth nearly $30,000.
Sorrell called in an investigative
team of local firefighters, the fire
marshal and the state fire marshals
office. It was determined the fire
had been set to cover up the theft.
Sorrell then uncovered a scenario of three workmen who were
working for a contractor at the
home, had drug addictions and
had access to the stolen items. He
was able to locate and recover a
portion of the stolen items that
had been sold by the head of the
contracted company,and to obtain
a full confession of the theft and
arson from him.
The owner also consented to a
search of two company vehicles,resulting in the seizure of heroin and
the arrest of two of his employees.
Unit Citation Awards were
given to troopers and officers at
Troop B in North Canaan and
the Winsted Police Department
(WPD) for their apprehension
of a murder suspect who was
attempting suicide.
On May 7, 2014, State Police
troopers and WPD officers responded to a report of a vehicle
parked at the former KFC restaurant in Winsted, with plates that
matched those of a car driven by
a wanted man.
He was believed to be armed

and responsible for the murder


of his wife and serious wounding
of his mother-in-law earlier in the
day in Oxford.
Troopers and officers approached the vehicle and found a
lone male occupant in the drivers
seat with a hat pulled down over
his face and an item completely
covering his hands. The vehicle

engine was running, the doors


were locked and a hose led from
the exhaust pipe into the passenger
compartment.
The front and rear passenger
windows were smashed to gain
access. The suspect was alive and
taken into custody. The murder
weapon was recovered.

Bright lights, holiday songs as town gathers to celebrate

PHOTOS BY PATRICK L. SULLIVAN

The only thing missing was snow. The Salisbury Band Christmas Brass and Hot Chocolate
Society (above) provided the instrumentation, the public (right photo) did the singing, led
by Joanna Seaton, in front of The White Hart inn on Sunday, Dec. 6, for the annual Christmas tree lighting.

SALISBURY The tree


lighting, Christmas caroling and
Parade of Lights were focused on
The White Hart this year.
Parents and children began
congregating inside the inn
around 4:30 p.m., to visit with
Santa Claus.
As darkness fell, the youngsters amused themselves with
an improvised game involving
a stuffed animal toy and a lot
of running in circles, while the
grownups worked out the lighting of the Christmas tree.
Things got going in earnest a
little after 6 p.m. The Salisbury
Band Christmas Brass and Hot
Chocolate Society wound up
playing from The White Hart
porch. Joanna Seaton led the
singing with the easy grace of
the seasoned professional.
During the caroling, the Parade of Lights came through on
Main Street, and doubled back
south on Undermountain Road,

giving everyone two chances to


look at the festively decorated
fire and rescue vehicles.
It was a smaller parade than
in previous years, and some of
the entries had their own mu-

sic the theme from the film


Ghostbusters came from one
vehicle, and Chuck Berrys Run
Run Rudolph from another. It all
made for a cheerful cacophony.

SALISBURY The Board of


Selectmen convened on Monday, Dec. 7, at Town Hall for an
information meeting about the
Lakeville Community Conservancys proposal to renovate park
space in the village of Lakeville.
The groups plans to date include five areas: the green space
at the junction of Routes 41 and
44 (next to the former firehouse);
the small park across Route 41,
next to Community Field and the
Patco convenience store; Bauer
Park, the grassy area on the Holley Street end of Factory Pond;
Bicentennial Park, at Route 44
and Holley Street; and the area
around the old railroad depot on
Ethan Allen Street.
After some discussion, the
selectmen and the conservancy
representatives, including Susan Galluzzo, agreed to confine
discussion at the Dec. 7 meeting
to the first two areas on the list.
First Selectman Curtis Rand
expressed reservations about the
proposals including concerns
about damaging tree root systems, the dam at Factory Pond
and the idea of putting steps in
Bicentennial Park but also
said, None of us are against
anything to make Lakeville look
better.
There is a set of plans on
display at Town Hall.
Other news
Rand asked the selectmen
if they agreed with the idea
of resubmitting a request for
a state Small Town Economic
Assistance Program grant for
construction of the new transfer station. Both Salisbury and
Sharon asked for the maximum
amount, $500,000, last year and
were turned down. Selectmen
Jim Dresser and Kitty Kiefer were
both in favor of reapplying.
Rand said there should be a
decision on a request for a federal
grant for the new transfer station

by the end of the year. He noted

Lake says farewell to Tim Hughes
By Jennifer L. K. Clark

SHARON The Silver Lake


community gathered Sunday,
Dec. 6, to bid farewell to the
conference centers longtime
director, Tim Hughes.
Hughes has been executive
director of the camp and conference center since 2014. Prior
to that, he spent 11 years as
co-director with his wife, Anne
Hughes. Anne left that position
in 2014 to pursue a career in
social work.
Silver Lake Conference Center in Sharon is owned by the
Connecticut Conference of
the United Church of Christ.
The conference purchased the
property in 1957 to use as an
outdoor ministry site for youth
programming. Over the past 58
years, the operation has grown
from a summer camp to a conference center offering off-season retreats to church groups,
schools, hobbyists and other
groups. The camp has both high
and low ropes courses, as well as
meeting spaces for day retreats,
and serves meals in the dining
hall to retreat participants.
Friends, board members,
colleagues and former summer
staff members offered tributes
in word and song. Recurring
themes were Hughess work to
develop leaders and his and his
wifes efforts to improve the
camp, both financially and in
the physical plant.
Tim has worked so hard to
put church in church camp, said
Charlie Kuchenbrod, executive
assistant conference minister
for the Connecticut Conference.
There is no doubt that Silver
Lake is in a much, much better place today [than when he
started].
Kuchenbrod spoke both as a
colleague and as a parent of Silver
Lake campers. He said how grateful he was for Hughess guidance
of his own children, who were
campers and then summer staff
members. When we say our
mission is to develop leaders for
the world and the church, I think
he got that.

Over their tenure at Silver


Lake, the Hugheses have balanced the budget, reduced incidences of bullying, upgraded a
number of buildings, overseen
the construction of a new basketball court, new cabins and a
new health and welcome center,
and completed the renovation of
the oldest retreat building. They
have reached out to neighboring
states and now see campers coming in growing numbers from
Rhode Island, Massachusetts and
New York.
In addition to heartfelt tributes, the afternoon included a

lot of playfulness, capturing the


spirit of Hughess leadership
style. There were camp songs,
puns, a little bit of chocolate and
a lot of laughter.
When Tim started as director, some people said, How can
someone carry on the spirit who
has never been a camper here?
said Whendi Cook, a longtime
Silver Lake volunteer and personal friend of Hughes. I can attest
that Tim has been a camper here
every day of his tenure.
The new director has not been
named yet but an announcement
is expected soon.

Closing the window on new transfer station ideas


SHARON The Salisbury
Sharon Resource Recovery Authority and the Transfer Station
Building Committee had a special meeting at Sharon Town Hall
on Wednesday, Dec. 2.
Adjustments continue to be
made to the plans for the new
transfer station, which will be
built on property near Dimond
Road in Salisbury, near the Millerton/town of Northeast border.
The new transfer station must
be ready for use by Jan. 1, 2021.
The gates on the present
facility, in Lakeville, are going to be closed and the keys
turned over on Dec. 31, 2020,
said Bob Palmer at the Dec. 2
meeting. Palmer is a member of
the Transfer Recycling Advisory
Committee (TRAC).
At a recent informational
meeting in Sharon at which
(almost) final plans for the new
facility were presented, several
people asked if The Hotchkiss

School would relent and allow


the station to remain where it is.
Salisbury First Selectman
Curtis Rand had said adamantly
at that meeting that Hotchkiss
will not change its mind. He reiterated that at the Dec. 2 meeting.
Several specific suggestions
had been made at the Sharon
informational meeting on ways
to reduce the cost of building
the new transfer station. Builder
Mike Dignacco in particular had
offered a detailed list of possible
savings.
The committee members are
in the process now of meeting
with members of the public and
hearing their requests. Accommodations are being made when
possible. The building committee will meet in Sharon on Dec.
16 at Town Hall. The building
committee will meet first, at 5:30
p.m.; a TRAC meeting will follow.
After that, the committee
members plan to move forward

said. We cant have people coming to us in January and saying,

Weve looked at a lot of options.
Now its time to move.
We dont have the kind of

SHARON There will be

entries. Cash prizes of $100, $75 and $50 will be awarded.

Even though it was a chilly
evening, dozens of people then
gathered on the Green to see the
lighting of the evergreen tree. The
creche and the menorah were on
the Green already (Hanukkah

Before the lights went on,
everyone sang holiday carols and
enjoyed a musical performance

She said the survey came from
the Housatonic Youth Service
Bureau (HYSB) and has been

School. See story, below.

to write to the school board,

She said she was receiving resistance about putting the issue
on the meeting agenda, based on

Why there is an assessment survey


FALLS VILLAGE Nick Pohl, executive director of the
Housatonic Youth Service Bureau (HYSB), offered some clarification about the survey, in a phone interview on Dec. 8.
The survey is not actually put out by the Youth Service Bureau,
he said. It is an initiative of the Northwest Corner Prevention
Network, which is made up of several area agencies and individuals, including the HYSB.
The survey is not prepared locally. It comes from an organization in Minnesota called the Search Institute, which also
tabulates the results.
There are about 160 questions directed at young people
in middle school and high school. Many of them assess how
young people see themselves; how they relate to their parents
and families and the larger community; how they assess risky
behaviors such as taking drugs or engaging in sexual activity.
This is the third time the Prevention Network has sent the
survey out to the Region One schools. The first time was in
2009/2010; the second was in 2011/12.
The Youth Service Bureau offers to administer the survey
but, Pohl said, the elementary schools have chosen so far to
administer it themselves.
We give them the surveys and they decide how they want
to handle it.
The surveys have been completed and turned in from all six
elementary schools, including Cornwall Consolidated, where
Pohl estimated that there are fewer than a dozen students in
the seventh grade.
The results are used to help the prevention network and the
Youth Service Bureau try to help youngsters who are in danger
of engaging in risky behaviors of any kind, up to and including
taking prescription drugs illegally. There is a heroin epidemic
nationwide and in the Northwest Corner; there were 16 heroin
deaths in Litchfield County in the first six months of 2015.
The HYSB offers free counseling to students in Region One
and their families. It also runs prevention programs on everything
from drugs and alcohol to sexual harassment and date rape.
Pohl said that there is a great need for such services in the
area and very little funding. The surveys can also help with
getting grants.
When youre doing anything prevention related, its helpful
to have data; it guides your interventions community wide and
helps you do strategic prevention work. You always want to start
with an assessment of whats happening in your community.
Its also valuable to have a baseline so you can measure
whether your interventions and programs are working.
For more on the HYSB, go to www.hysb.org. There is also
information at the HYSB website about the Northwest Corner
Prevention Network.

The evergreen near Town


Hall is now lit for the holiday
season.

A holiday gift:
warm weather
for tree lighting
KENT For the third year in
a row, holiday revelers gathered
around the petite but handsome
tree on the Green next to Town
Hall. The sun had already set by
the time the crowd of about two
dozen adults and young children
came together to see the holiday
lights turned on.
First there was cocoa and
cookies. Then First Selectman
Bruce Adams welcomed everyone and shared a bit of the
trees history.
It was planted three years ago,
by the Kent Garden Club and
Bruce Bennett of Kent Greenhouse and Gardens.
The first Christmas after the
tree was planted, the weather
was perfect, with a light snow
creating the appropriate holiday
ambience.
The second year, Adams recalled, the ceremony had to be
canceled because the weather
was so bad.
This year, the temperature
was unseasonably mild and
there was no precipitation to
speak of. Although it didnt exactly scream out white Christmas, it made for a pleasant
evening for all who had gathered
together to celebrate the season.
Adams thanked Rob Giampietro of the Bulls Bridge Golf
Club and electrician John Gleason for running an electrical
conduit out to the tree, at no
cost to the town (a savings of
about $2,000).
And then the tree was lit and
a few holiday carols were sung,
with the help of musician and
singer George Potts.
More holiday lights are on
the menu for this Sunday, Dec.
13, when the Kent volunteer
firefighters will host their annual
Parade of Lights. It will begin at

KENT Children and adults rode through town on an oldtime carriage drawn by horses decorated with Christmas garlands
on Sunday, Dec. 6.
The carriage departed from Kent Greenhouse at 20-minute intervals, and stopped at the entrances of all participating businesses:
Kent Village Barns, Kent Wine and Spirit, Kent Pizza Garden and
Pantages Gems. Some businesses greeted riders with a special treat,
such as hot chocolate or candy.
The childrens faces lit up at the sight of horses wearing jingling
bells. They couldnt wait to mount the carriage.
Kids love it, and they love the horses, said Audrey King of Kent
Greenhouse.
Coachman Stephen Podhajecki and his horses came for the event
from Loon Meadow Farm in Norfolk. The business which is run
by Podhajeckis wife has provided its services to similar events for
roughly 30 years, he said. Horse-drawn carriages are very popular
for Christmas-related events, he added.
The carriage rides ran from noon to 4 p.m.

Kahn pastels at 25 Main St.


KENT The Morrison Gallery is no longer open at its
former Old Barn Road location. Its temporary location is at 25
Main St., across from Kent Wine and Spirit.
There will be a show there of pastels by Wolf Kahn, from
Dec. 12 to Jan. 31, with an opening reception on Saturday, Dec.
12, from 5 to 7 p.m.
Gallery owner William Morrison is planning to build a new
space in town.

At senior center:
forever (egg foo) yong
By Cynthia Hochswender

KENT The lunch options for Kent seniors just expanded.


Three restaurants in town will now contribute one meal a year to the
weekly senior meals, offered for $2 per person at noon on Fridays
at the Senior Center.
The Kent longterm care facility, which used to help provide food
for the weekly meal, has essentially closed, and a new provider was
needed to fill the gap. Other meals are provided by the private schools
in town (Kent, South Kent and Marvelwood).
First Selectman Bruce Adams approached some of the many
restaurants in town and got commitments from three of them to
provide one meal a year. On Dec. 11, there will be a meal from the
Shanghai Chinese restaurant; on April 1 the meal will come from
the Villager; and on May 27 the meal will be provided by the Fife
n Drum.
The program is open to Kent seniors with a suggested donation
of $2. The doors of the red barn at Templeton Farms on Swifts Lane
open at 11:30 a.m., and the meal is served at noon. The meals offer
a chance for seniors to get out, socialize and have a hot meal.
For more information on how to take part in the weekly meals,
call Park and Recreation Director Lesly Ferris at 860-927-1003.

Bringing a historic theater up to date,


without ruining the good memories
By Karen Bartomioli

NORTH CANAAN A live


concert scheduled for Dec. 19 at
the Colonial Theatre will mark
the reopening of the historic
landmark on Railroad Street.
The art deco decor and the
dinner theater-seating that
slopes down to a small stage
make it an ideal venue for live
concerts, plays and other events
that call for a more intimate
setting.
The upstairs ballroom, currently a second movie theater,
remains a large, open and flexible
space.
The theater closed in the mid1990s. Soon after, a group came
together to study how the theater
could thrive going forward. The
primary obstacle was the three
screens needed to make a profit
on first-run films.
And there was a valid concern
that trying to recreate what it had
been would only prove that you
cant go home again.
The property was later pur-

chased by David Ohler and Phil


Ghi, who refurbished the ceiling
paint and period wall sconces.
Old theater seats were replaced
with banquettes and dinner
tables on a series of platforms
above the stage to allow for
dinner and a movie. The movie

We need to give people a reason to come


here, and offer tie-ins
with other businesses,
so we can all benefit.
John Lannen
screen was added to the upstairs
ballroom. There is a full kitchen
and catering facilities.
New owner Ben Wohlfert gave
careful consideration to how the
theater can be reincarnated as a
financially stable business and
an asset to the town.
He had marketing sur-

veys done and invested about


$150,000 in a new heating system,
plumbing and other upgrades
and repairs.
He has hired John Lannen,
who has been coordinating the
annual Railroad Days festival, as
project manager.
Lannen agreed it seems
Wohlfert has hit just the right
note of keeping the old-time
movie house feel, without the
movies. They believe that live
events, such as the offerings at
Infinity Hall in Norfolk, will not
only attract locals but also people
from out of town.
You cant expect a business
like this in a small town to be
solely supported by the residents, Lannen said. We need
to give people a reason to come
here, and offer tie-ins with other
businesses, so we can all benefit.
That said, Wohlfert envisions
including in a future schedule
of happenings things like graduations, recitals, parties and
wedding receptions, much like
the old days.

Considine reviving storefronts


NORTH CANAAN Three
new businesses are in the works
in the town center and are expected to fill empty storefronts
in the coming weeks.
All will be owned by John
Considine, in conjunction with
various business partners. He
will continue to operate his
Country Classic Homes and
painting businesses.
Considine offered a tour
last week of the former Brewer
Bros. car dealership on Railroad
Street (Route 7), where work is
underway to transform it into
two businesses. The property is
owned by Riga Construction, a
new company Considine formed
with Roger Hedman.
The north end of the building
will be home to Northwest Auto
Sales and Service, where a new
main entrance will allow customers to avoid walking on the
narrow state highway shoulder.
The former Chrysler dealership closed in June after more
than a century in business. It
was purchased two years prior
by Jims Garage owner Bill
Hower, who consolidated the
two businesses.
Considine purchased only the
Brewer Bros. property.
It will pick up where Jims
Garage left off, Considine said.
We will be selling used Subarus
and any other good cars we can
find, and we will be servicing any
make of vehicles.
That includes quick oil changes.
The facade will transformed
with new siding and service bay

Warm winter
clothing at CCCC
NORTH CANAAN The
Canaan Child Care Center was
awarded a $1,000 grant from
the Community Foundation of
Northwest Connecticut, Inc. toward its warm apparel program.
The grant will ensure that the
children who attend the center
will have a winter coat, hat,
mittens and boots this winter.
If funding allows, items will be
provided for other children in
the community as well.
For more information, or to
make a donation, call Frances
Chapell at 860-824-0597.

doors. Considine, who has done


restoration work on numerous
commercial buildings, envisions
a gray barn door replica replacing
one of the large entryways on the
main road.
Inside, the old service garage
area is being remodeled to make
it more comfortable. There will
be a waiting room with coffee
and a glass wall for a view of the
garage interior.
On the south end, the former
car showroom will be remodeled,
with a new entrance just off the
municipal parking lot, for a millwork shop owned by Considines
Canaan Valley Group.
It will include a showroom
with a mix of wood and metal
custom cabinetry and other
pieces. A new picture window
will be lit up at night, adding

vitality to the town center.


Considine noted they are
getting rid of the old, bangedup metal guardrail at that end
of the building and replacing it
with more attractive posts that
will be encased in wood.
All of that is expected to be
completed within the next six
weeks.
Meanwhile, a couple of blocks
away on Church Street (Route
44), the recently closed Canaan
Tile and Stone (formerly S. J.
Masters) will re-open as Berkshire Design, with Considine and
partner Thomas Ball.
It will be a kitchen and bath
showroom, with tile and stone
they will sell and install.
Considine bought the two
buildings there two years ago.
Karen Bartomioli

I found the program from


my grandfather Fred Wohlferts
graduation that was held on the
theater stage, he said. That was
the Class of 1939, the last one to
graduate from the old Canaan
High School.
He is also looking into licensing to be able to show old films,
or marathons of really good
TV series. Had we been open
already, we might be showing old
Star Wars films or TV shows to
celebrate the new movie release.
Another program being offered there is the Music Lab,
now open in one of the theater
storefronts. It offers jam sessions,
free lessons and a place for paid
lessons to be offered.
Lannen has been busy sorting
through memorabilia to hang on
the lobby walls, and working on
details of the upcoming concert.
It will be a fundraiser for the
restoration of Canaan Union Station and feature The Steve Dunn
Band (Dunn is a North Canaan
native), Molliekate Dionne (a
rising star from town) and the
Winsted-based Belle of the Fall.
Tickets are $20 and include a
snack buffet. Wine and beer will
be sold. Doors open at 7:30 p.m.
The show begins at 8 p.m.
Purchase tickets at C.A. Lindells, Mahaiwe Jewelers, Olde
School Deli, North Canaan Town
Hall, the Fuller building, Print
Masters and The Cordial Shop.
Anyone interested in booking
the theater or seeking more information can call 860-824-7723.

Faces wreathed with smiles at annual FFA wreath night


By Patrick L. Sullivan

FALLS VILLAGE Wayne


Jenkins and Tracy Atwood,
members of the Class of 1962
at Housatonic Valley Regional
High School (HVRHS), were reunited at the wreath-tying table
on Wednesday evening, Dec. 2.
The occasion was the first of
two production nights at the
high school, sponsored by the
Housatonic Valley FFA chapter.
FFA President Shelby Jacquier (of North Canaan) said the
turnout was the highest she had
experienced in her four years at
the school.
She was shuttling around between the cutters, the bunchers
and the people tying the wreaths;
weighing in the boxes of clippings; and checking out clippers.
The students get points based
on production. The top producers earn a trip, destination to be
determined.
The wreaths are sold in the
FFA holiday store, which opened
Thursday, Dec. 3, and remains
open through Wednesday, Dec.
23 (hours are 10 a.m. to 4:30
p.m.).
The store also has Christmas
trees, poinsettias and other holiday decorations.
Last year, the store grossed
about $63,000. Jacquier said
this years goal is a little higher,
at $65,000.
FFA Treasurer Kevin Massey
(of Sharon) said the break-even
point is $56,000.
The FFA donates some of the
proceeds from the holiday store
to four area food banks.
Ryan Washburn, a sophomore
from Salisbury, was in charge of
the hot chocolate. Using a 100cup coffee maker, he poured
instant cocoa mix into the hot
water, and stirred carefully, trying to avoid any slopping over.
It wasnt a very precise recipe.
He finished with the second of
two 25-ounce cans, and eyed
the third.
They told me to put in at
least two cans, he said.
Someone came over for a taste
test, and advised him to add a
little more.
Cricket Jacquier, an HVRHS
alumnus, clearly had not lost his
wreath-tying touch. Clad in just
a T-shirt and jeans despite the
chill, he swiftly and efficiently
attached bunches of white pine
and red and white cedar clippings
to the wire wreath frame.
Asked his personal best time,
he said, Seven minutes.
Jenkins and Atwood were not
moving quite as fast. Atwood was
taking care to alternate different
bunches, for a pleasing effect.
Its what we call diversity,
he said.
HVRHS teacher Dave Moran
said a good production night will
result in 70 to 80 wreaths.
The workshop, as usual,
smelled strongly of pine, and
resounded with laughter and
good-natured kidding.

Shelby Jacquier, FFA president, advised a group of students and parents on how to proceed.

OBITUARIES
Arthur R. Taylor
SALISBURY Arthur R.
Taylor, 80, former president of
CBS Inc. and 10th President of Muhlenberg
College died Dec. 3,
2015, with his loving
wife, Kathryn, and
his beloved daughter,
Annie, by his side at
Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest in
Allentown, Pa.
A resident of Salisbury Township, Pa.,
and Salisbury, Conn., Taylor was
born July 6, 1935, in Elizabeth,
N.J. He was the son of the late
Marion (Scott) and Arthur Earl
Taylor.
A native of Rahway, N.J., he
graduated from Rahway High
School and went on to earn a
full scholarship and was a magna cum laude Phi Beta Kappa
graduate from Brown University, where he also received his
masters degree and later served
as a trustee.
Taylor began his business
career with the First Boston
Corporation. He went on to
become vice president of finance,
executive vice president and a
director of International Paper
Company. Taylor was one of a
group of young fast-rising executives known as the Whiz Kids,
when at age 36 he was named
president and a director of CBS
Inc., where he was responsible
for the operations of the entire
company including the CBS
Television Network, CBS News
and the New York Yankees.
Taylor was founding chairman and president of cable televisions Entertainment Channel
(now the Arts and Entertainment
Network A&E). He was also
the founding president of the
formidable New York City Partnership with Chairman David
Rockefeller.
In 1985, Fordham University named him dean of the Graduate School of Business Administration and dean of the faculty
of Business. In his seven years at
Fordham, he transformed the
young graduate school, which
subsequently awarded him an
honorary doctorate. Taylor then
served as president of Muhlenberg College for a decade
(19922002), during which time
Muhlenberg tripled its endowment, halved its debt and saw a
significant rise in admissions. Its
prominence as a fine liberal arts
college grew substantially.
Taylor served on the boards
of many corporations including
Toshiba, Eastern Airlines, Pitney
Bowes, the First Boston Corporation and The Travelers.
In addition, he held government advisory positions on
foreign policy under Presidents
Nixon and Carter.
He was a member of many
philanthropic boards including
New York Hospital, the Joffrey
Ballet, the Kiski School, the
American Assembly at Columbia
University (chairman), and he
was a member of the Council
on Foreign Relations.
He received numerous awards
and honorary doctorate degrees
from Bucknell, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Simmons
College, to name a few. Throughout his career and after retiring
from Muhlenberg he continued
mentoring young people. His

students from Muhlenberg


regularly sought his advice as
did numerous people with whom he
worked and lived.
He and his wife,
Kathryn, lived in
Salisbury in the Old
Bushnell Tavern, an
historic home, which
he truly loved. He was
proud to live in Salisbury and served as a
commissioner of the
Historic District Commission.
He was a founding member of
the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation and the Friends
of Washinee Park and was a
trustee of the Salisbury School.
He was incredibly proud of
his family. His three daughters
and their achievements were
everything to him. His four
grandchildren meant the world
to him and they felt the same
not a day went by that he did
not speak to at least one of his
grandchildren.
In addition to his family, he
adopted hundreds of surrogate
sons, daughters, nieces and
nephews who depended on
his love and guidance. He was
known as Uncle Arthur to
many. He loved people and was
truly larger than life.
He is survived by the love
of his life, his wife Kathryn
(Pelgrift) Taylor, from whom
he never wanted to be apart;
his daughters, Martha (Taylor)
Josephson and her husband, Jon
Carter, Anne (Taylor) Madden
and her husband, Sean, and
Sarah (Taylor) Rountree and her
husband, John; his four beloved
grandchildren, David Arthur
Josephson, Zoe Taylor Josephson, John Taylor Madden and
Brody McFarland Rountree; his
sister, Marilyn (Taylor) Rocks;
his brothers- and sisters-in-law,
Robert Y. Pelgrift Jr. and his wife,
Susan, Elizabeth P. Boak and her
husband, Jeffrey, Anne P. Crawford and her husband, Gregory,
James D. Pelgrift and his wife,
Sara, Nancy P. Kocian and her
husband, Matt, and Christopher
Y. Pelgrift; 15 nieces and nephews
for whom he cared greatly; and
his dear friends the Scarpa family
in Salisbury.
The family asks that in lieu

Tom Crawford
MILLERTON Tom Crawford of The Villages, Fla., and
formerly of Millerton, died Nov.
30, 2015.
Tom was the devoted, patient
and genuinely kind husband of
Susan Crawford.
He was the loving son of Lydia
Johnson of Millerton and the late
Francis Crawford and the younger brother to Linda Kaplan (of
Millerton, where she lives with
her husband, Sanford).
His easy-going, thoughtful
way won over Susans family
from day one. Uncle Tom was
adored and respected by numer-

ous nieces and nephews. In fact,


everyone loved Tom; he made
friends wherever he went, and
he will be greatly missed.
Tom bravely protected his
country, community and family.
He was an Army veteran who
served in Vietnam, and he was a
firefighter for the city of Poughkeepsie, N.Y.
A happy hour in his memory
was held Dec. 4 at Hacienda Hills
Country Club at The Villages.
A Celebration of Life will
be held on Dec. 13 at 1 p.m. at

Polly Jo Masters
ANCRAMDALE We
mourn the passing of Polly Jo
Masters of Ancramdale, who
died peacefully at home on
Dec. 4, 2015, surrounded by her
children, at the age of 91. The
family thanks the community
of caregivers and friends who
encircled her with love, companionship, laughter and music since
2008: Diane F., Keavy B., Joni F.,
Elizabeth M., Gaye P., Peggy O.,
Lolly S., Anne C., Julia H., Jackie
H., Mandy L., Mary S., Carol P.,
Brian C., Becky R., David H.,
Harold H., Terry B, and Gregg B.
Born in Beckley, W. Va., on
March 14, 1924, she was the
daughter of Effie Lajo Stalnaker
and Dr. John H. McCulloch.
After graduating from the
University of Kentucky, fate
ushered her through the doors
of Beckleys WJLS radio station
in 1947 where, as Side-Saddle
Sue, she hosted a weekly radio
program. She played banjo and
ukulele, singing cowboy music,
reading local news and engaging
in easy humor.
A year or so later she departed
for New York City, where she pursued a career in musical theater.
She sang cabaret, stage-managed
many productions including
Oh, Captain!, and was a principal in the summer traveling
company of Brigadoon.
In 1951, she and a business
partner, the director George
Quick, renovated several old
stables and barns on the Vanderbilt Estate in Hyde Park,
N.Y., establishing the Hyde Park
Playhouse. While in Hyde Park
she also assisted the late Eleanor
Roosevelt with the New York
State Literacy Project. When
theatrical success required a
press agent, she and Quick hired
a young writer, Hilary Masters.
Polly and Hilary fell in love,
married and ran the Playhouse
for the next seven years.
In 1960 they sold the Playhouse and moved to their
new home on Woods Drive in
Ancramdale. From the mid1960s she was very active in her
community. She volunteered for
the American Cancer Society,

worked with the local PTA and


was a friendly and welcoming
face at the polls during election
time.
In 1968 she ran successfully
for president of the Pine Plains
Board of Education, becoming
the first woman in local history
to hold that honor. She held that
post until 1975 and was, among
many other things, instrumental
in the conception and building of
the Stissing Mountain Junior-Senior High School, also the first
of its kind in the region.
From 1979 until the mid1990s she contributed a regular
column for a local newspaper,
the Roe-Jan Independent, under
the heading, One Side to Everything. She wrote about politics,
local and national education,
television, rural homeownership, the origins of linguistic
memory and the diminutive interior dimensions of the original
Ancramdale Post Office.
She was predeceased by her
brother, John H. McCulloch
Jr.; her parents; and her former
husband, Hilary Masters, whom
she divorced in 1985.
She is survived by her sister-in-law, Carolyn McCulloch
of Beckley; her three children,
Joellen Masters of Lexington,
Mass., Catherine Masters of Deer
Isle, Maine, John D.C. Masters of
Paros, Greece; and a grandchild,
Kaolin R.E. Pitcher of Portland,
Maine.
She was a mother, a grandmother, a prescient community
leader, a lover of Broadway musicals and English mysteries, a
fount of knowledge and a source
of no-nonsense unending love
and support to all. She covered
the ground she walked on. The
family will announce a memorial
gathering at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorial
donations may be made to the
Polly Masters Educational Fund
for Young Women at Pine Plains
Stissing Mountain High School.
Arrangements are under the
direction of the Peck and Peck
Funeral Home in Copake, N.Y.

THE LAKEVILLE JOURNAL, Thursday, December 10, 2015

I had the privilege of knowing


Samuel R. Berger for 65 years.
Sandy, as everyone knew him,
died on Dec. 2, 2015, at age 70.
Our friendship began in Mrs.
Hultslanders kindergarten class
at the Millerton School, and my
wife, Meg, and I last saw him on
Nov. 8.
Sandy had a keen interest
in people. As former President
Clinton humorously observed
at his Memorial Service at Temple Sinai in Washington, D.C.,
on Friday, Dec. 4, Sandy was a
great humanitarian, but unlike
many who profess to be such, he
actually liked real people. Add to
that his natural empathy and his
wonderful sense of humor, and
the result was a person with a
rare capacity for true friendship.
As has been mentioned in
some of the national coverage
of his death, Sandy was a passionate baseball fan and that
may have been the greatest test
of our friendship. He loved the
Brooklyn Dodgers and I was an
insufferable Yankee fan. During
our childhood in Millerton, the
Yankees and Dodgers were often in the World Series and the
Dodgers seldom won. Sandy, ever
patient and taking the long view,
knew his time would come. It did
in our freshman year in college.
The Dodgers had moved to Los
Angeles and were playing the
Yankees in the World Series. They
swept the Yankees four straight.
Mel Allen, the longtime Yankee
announcer, did the television
play-by-play for the final game.
He had laryngitis and by the end
of the game could hardly talk.
Two hours later a man knocked
on my dorm room door and
handed me a telegram. I opened
it and read: Ed. Even Mel Allen
choked. Sympathy. See you soon.
Sandy.
Sandy could have left Millerton and never looked back, but
he didnt. He enjoyed visiting
the area to the extent his busy
schedule allowed. Whenever we
saw him, after inquiring about
us and our family, his next ques-

OBITUARIES

SPORTS

In appreciation: Sandy Berger

Macneil earns
title from NIAAA

tions were about his friends in


Millerton and Amenia and what
was going on in those communities. When we saw him in early
November, he was delighted to
hear that our classmates George
Kaye and Victoria Perotti had just
been elected supervisor in their
communities and asked me to
send him their e-mail addresses. For many years, he kept his
subscription to The Millerton
News and especially enjoyed
Bernie Silvernails column on
local history.
During the memorial service,
former President Clinton, former Secretary of State Madeleine
Albright and Vice President Joseph Biden all spoke of Sandys
wisdom, wit, warmth and perseverance as did, most eloquently,
Sandys daughter Sarah and son
Alex. When speaking at a gathering of his family and a group
of close friends afterward, I told
them that many of those qualities
could be traced back to his time
in Millerton.
Sandys parents, Rose and Albert Berger, were business people
with a strong sense of civic and

social responsibility. They were


actively involved in the effort
to consolidate the Amenia and
Millerton school districts into
the Webutuck Central School
District, and Al was a member
of its first Board of Education.
They purchased the department store business from Lena
Bloch in 1952, located in what is
now Oblong Books and Music,
and it became Bergers Department Store. Two years later, Al
Berger died from a heart attack.
Sandy was 8 and his sister, Laurie,
was 12. Sandy once told me how
difficult it was for his mother. Not
only had she unexpectedly lost
her husband, but her education
had prepared her to be a teacher,
not a business person. Sandy and
Laurie worked in the store, and
Rose successfully continued the
business until both children had
graduated from college.
We attended Webutuck when
it was under the aspirational
leadership of Superintendent
Mike Rindsberg, who was so
committed to seeing we got
into the right colleges that he
would drive us to visit them.

Sandys interest in history and


government was nurtured by
exceptional teachers, my mother,
Leola Downey, and her close
friend, Violet Simmons, whose
admonition to her students was:
The difficult we do right away,
the impossible takes a little longer. His confidence to express
himself publicly was helped
enormously by his participation
in our school plays under the
direction of our gifted English
teacher, Jack Bower.
Sandy and I came of age in a
world that valued public service
as a way to help people improve
the quality of their lives. Given
Sandys rare combination of intellect, personality and sense of
social responsibility, a career in
public service was a natural fit.
That his work would take
him to a point where he would
become one of the key architects

of our nations foreign policy,


and by extension the worlds, is
remarkable but even more remarkable is that it never changed
him. I believe it was his capacity
to keep the important things in
life in perspective that drew an
estimated 1,000 people to Temple
Sinai to remember Sandy and
celebrate his life.
As usual, Sandy said it best
when in an Aug. 25, 1999, interview in The New York Times he
told R.W. Apple: Where I grew
up is very important to what I am.
My perspectives are still more
Millerton 1960 than Washington
2000. The small-town sense of
community and social responsibility thats the lasting imprint
of Millerton on me.

of the law firm of Downey, Haab

EDITORIAL

It affects us all

hat is it that radicalizes people who have lived


their lives as law-abiding citizens with connections
to their communities, as well as to non-radical
family and friends? Its a question that has too many answers,
which experts on terrorism say are unique for each individual. Yet in some ways, they must all share some level of
disgruntlement with their lives and the society in which they
live. They must have some things in common, which those
around them could observe and define.
In a New York Times interview Saturday, Dec. 5, Secretary
of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson said he believes there
must now be an entirely new approach to the global terrorist
threat. There will have to be more reliance on people watching one another carefully and then reporting suspicions, he
said. When President Barack Obama spoke to the nation
Sunday night, Dec. 6, he agreed with Johnson, and described
the U.S. governments approach to combating this growing
threat. There are programs already in place to give citizens
the opportunity to report anything they see as suspicious,
but those without training in such matters and without a
natural bent toward an understanding of secrecy might be
hard-pressed to catch the signals of violent plans hatching
around them.
California, where the San Bernardino shooting occurred
last week, has gun laws that are among the tightest in the
nation, and the structure for support of those struggling
with mental illness is better than in many other states. Yet the
two shooters there were able to obtain weapons capable of
killing and injuring many people in a short period of time,
and they also built homemade bombs in an attempt to cause
even more damage during their attack, now being universally
defined as terrorism. The married perpetrators presented a
seemingly credible facade to the world, one which did not
crack under the observation of their family, neighbors and
coworkers (whom the man saw regularly, and who were the
target of his and his wifes attack).
How can Americans, or anyone across the globe who
might be victimized by such profound hatred, see through
such a determined plot? Noticing the gathering of high-powered weapons could give a clue, even without spouting of
radical rhetoric accompanying it. Its not easy to take the
step, though, of going to the authorities to accuse a neighbor, family member, friend or acquaintance of suspected
terrorism. Yet this is just the kind of thinking that law-abiding people will need to accept and embrace in order to stop
shootings like the one in California.
The presidents stated desire for universal background
checks throughout the nation for those buying guns should
also become a reality. As long as people with bad intentions
can circumvent the more stringent laws in one state by
purchasing their firearms in a more lenient one, it will be
more difficult for law enforcement, or observant citizens, to
foresee violent events. As those who fear that their Second
Amendment rights will be violated stock up with firearms
(as they did in record numbers on Black Friday), those
close to them may find they cannot easily tell the difference
between someone who uses their guns for target practice and
someone who has secret plans to kill.
Why do people turn radical? Perhaps its better just to accept that some people do, without fully understanding why.
Americans and moderate people all over the world are going
to have to accept a long-term reality of vigilance, as has been
the case since 9/11, but now on a very personal level, in order
to spot possible terror suspects. The challenge will be to continue living open lives in a free society, which is after all what
those who turn to terrorist acts want to end.

Opinion

If theyd stay tax-exempt, why sell the hospitals?


THE MILLERTON NEWS The Winsted Journal

ommunity support for


the acquisition of Waterbury Hospital and
Eastern Connecticut Health
Networks Manchester Memorial
and Rockville General hospitals, all nonprofit hospitals, by
Prospect Medical Holdings, a
for-profit company, has been
based largely on the expectation
that the new owner would start
paying millions of dollars in
municipal property taxes each
year. Because of their nonprofit
structure the hospitals now are
tax-exempt.
But as the Journal Inquirers
Don Michak reported the other
day, Prospects applications with
state government show that it
wants the property tax exemption of the hospitals to continue
indefinitely while it tries to repair
their finances.
Its not clear how continuing
the tax exemption after the
change in ownership could be
arranged. Presumably either the
municipalities involved would
have to grant the exemption
by ordinance in the case of
ECHN, joint action by town
government in Manchester and
Vernon or the exemption
would have to be imposed by new
state law. How long would the exemption last and what would be
the criteria for ending it? Theres
no telling at the moment.
In any case Prospects requirement for indefinite property
tax exemption has exploded the
rationale for the hospitals communities to support their sale.
That rationale was weak to begin
with. For the money that would
flow to municipal governments
from the hospitals in property
tax revenue would come only
from higher bills to hospital
patients and their insurers, and
these higher bills would constitute a hidden tax on the public.
(No wonder so many municipal
officials and local legislators like
the idea.)
The hospitals say they are
losing money, so all along the
big issue with their sale has been
exactly how a new owner would

make them profitable, and particularly what a new owner could


do to make them profitable that
the hospitals couldnt do on their
own. Prospect and the hospitals
themselves have been vague
about this, thereby indicating,
as might be expected, that the
only economies likely to save
substantial money and produce
profit for the new owner would
require reducing staff, staff compensation, and medical services,
reductions that could not be
acknowledged in advance of any
hospital sale without generating
prohibitive opposition.
So the decisive issue with

the hospital sales may be only


whether these economies are to
be exacted by outside ownership
answerable to an out-of-state
leveraged-buyout company like
Prospect or to ownership by a
community foundation answerable to the people being served.
Of course if the current
boards of the hospitals had the
necessary courage, they might
have made the unpleasant decisions already. Instead, offering
the hospitals for sale, their boards
have given up, unwilling even
to cut executive salaries that, at
Waterbury and ECHN, range
from $700,000 to more than a
million dollars.
But if theres not enough
community engagement and
backbone to do what needs to
be done to preserve the hospitals, the financial predators will
be only too glad to take over. In
many respects thats whats happening throughout the country.

Its time to scold childish adults

arent remember children


saying they didnt want,
perhaps, to eat broccoli
with a petulant, I hate broccoli. Or peas, or liver, or fish,
or whatever. And as parents we
scolded our kids for saying they
already hated something they
had not tried or, if they had
tasted it, there was no way they
could hate it perhaps they
could say they did not prefer
it, or perhaps even they could
say they did not like the taste of
broccoli. But hate the plant itself? How irrational to say you
hate something when in reality
all you can say is that you do
not like it very much.

Psychological Association, hate
is a dangerous state of mind.

Disregarding the personhood of others can easily lead

I never met a Syrian, they smell?
Their beards, what do they hide? Are they so psyched
Theyd blow us down to the ninth circle of hell
Or are they just immigrants, the Statue of Lib
They take her words so literal, perhaps a little fib
Is what she tells, your tired, your poor, your huddled masses
ReThuglican governors and their border passes
Yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse
Of your teeming shore. Or deserts, parched; lets lose

have, like spoiled children, chosen to hate instead. You hear it


all the time, they hate this and
hate that. Their speech is peppered with hate and words that
demonstrate their physiological
pathological? hatred for
things they do not agree with.
For example, the Internet and
public demonstrations are filled
with people saying they hate
the president, or that they hate
their congressmen and women, or the police, or that they
hate Muslims, Christians, Jews.
And politicians and would-be
elected officials spout the rhetoric of hate to cuddle up to baby-minded people, condoning
and magnifying the most base
and most childlike behavior
with hate speech.
And yet, when you speak
with someone who had, for
example, said they hate illegal immigrants, and you ask
this question, Do you really
hate them as individual people
or do you disagree with their
illegality and dislike what they
have done? Dislike or disagree
with that is normal human
thought, normal consideration.
People are allowed opinions,
even prejudices. Civilized conversation can follow providing
that leap off the spoiled childs
cliff of hate does not become
the manifestation of what is, after all, only opinion.
Remember, if you hear
someone say they hate this or
that doesnt that remind you
of the child who hasnt tasted
broccoli and yet is dead certain
they hate it? Spoiled brats all.

Due process rights may be


weakened in U.S. courts of law

lthough much progress


has been made in affirming basic human rights
and freedoms in the United
States, there are too many recent
cases of U.S. courts backsliding
on procedural rights of due
process, sometimes undermining longstanding constitutional
interpretation, legal precedent,
legislative intent and common
sense.Here are some examples
expressed, for simplicity, in the
form of a few rhetorical questions:
When police make a warrantless, no-knock invasion of a
suspects home, shouldnt evidence thus obtained be excluded
from the courtroom during trial,
under the exclusionary rule?
That long-standing rule has
proved in the past to be the best
guarantor of law enforcements
compliance with the U.S. Constitutions ban on unreasonable
search and seizure.Why do we
see more and more cases where
this basic rule is overlooked by
courts of law?
When seeking evidence of
suspected criminal or terrorist
activity, shouldnt law enforcement nevertheless respect the
basic constitutional right of the
People to be secure in their
persons, houses, papers and
effects, and shouldnt Warrants be issued upon probable
cause?When concerned citizens
report wholesale government
violation of their privacy and
rights, why are they often treated
as unpatriotic whistle-blowers,
when it is they who are actually
defending the U.S. Constitution?
When the prosecution in a
criminal trial has information
that might exculpate (that is,
prove the innocence of) the accused, shouldnt the prosecution
be required to share that information with the defense? That
was a long-standing principle
of due process. Why is it that,
in case after case of what turns
out to be unquestionably false
conviction and incarceration,
the key information that later
justifies reversal of conviction
appears to have been known to
the prosecution all along and
withheld from the defense, while
the judges have turned a blind
eye to what is going on in their
own courts?
When a plaintiff seeks access
to the courts of law in order to
claim compensation for injury
due to a dangerous or faulty
product (such as a defective auto
part or a carcinogenic herbicide),
shouldnt it be enough for the
claimant to submit a clear statement of right to relief, as civil tort
law specifically calls for, without
having also to provide proof of
all the facts normally obtained
during the discovery phase and
finally decided by trial jury? Why
are some courts setting up such
biased barriers to court access,
thereby protecting corporate
defendants at the expense of
injured citizen plaintiffs?
When on camera and in the
public eye, for all the world
to see, a policeman shoots or
strangles an unarmed suspect,
or an errant child, shouldnt it
automatically be the case that
the officer concerned be subject
to independent, impartialinvestigation and that the ultimate
factual determination be made,
not by law enforcement, but by a
jury of independent citizens?In
all too many obvious cases today,
law enforcement fails to indict,
thus shielding its own from
independent investigation or
prosecution. Are they saying,
in effect, that the objective truth
doesnt count, or that, Black lives
dont matter? Why do our courts
of law tolerate this?
When a suspected criminal
or even a suspected terrorist is
imprisoned or detained, and
no evidence can be obtained or
offered to justify initial arrest
let alone incarceration (as was
the case of over 90 percent of
Guantanamo detainees), or
when subsequent information,
such as DNA evidence, is found
to prove the prisoners innocence
(as in dozens of actual cases in the
U.S. today), shouldnt that person be immediately freed from
incarceration and receive full
and fair compensation for false
imprisonment, mistreatment
and denial of due process by the
state?Shouldnt our legislatures
enact this into law, and the courts

Insight

Anthony Piel
enforce it?
When a death row convict
reasonably objects to the use
of a faulty lethal injection drug
cocktail (e.g., in Oklahoma),
shouldnt it be for the state and
not for the convict himself to
come up with the alternative
chemical to kill him? How can
he do so from behind bars?Arent there so many mistakes and
defects in the actual practice
of killing prisoners, especially
innocent ones, that the time has
come for legislatures and the
courts to abolish capital punishment entirely as a violation of the
U.S. Constitutions proscription
of cruel and inhuman punishment?
When considering the rights
of Persons and People in
plain English under the U.S.
Constitution, doesnt it seem
inescapable that, as Justice John
Paul Stevens wrote in Citizens
United, Corporations have
no conscience, no beliefs, no
feelings, no thoughts, no desires;
they are not themselves members
of We the People, by whom
and for whom our Constitution
was established.What does this
imply for the new-found impunity of corporations to evade
campaign finance laws, or to
deny their employees the right
to family planning insurance
and health services on supposed
religious grounds?
When hundreds, and even
thousands, of women working
for a major corporation (such as
WalMart) complain of unequal
pay for equal work, or unequal
opportunity for promotion,
shouldnt these women as a
group have status to bring a class
action lawsuit, or must each
complainant bring a suit by herself?How can she demonstrate a
pattern of discrimination affecting the entire group when she
can only represent herself?Why,
in the eyes of the courts, does
the corporation deserve more
procedural protection than the
employees?

In every one of the above


examples, courts have recently
decided key procedural issues
against the interests and rights
of ordinary citizens.Whats the
answer?Once again, the solution
begins in the electoral voting
booth.We have to elect executive leaders and legislators who
will not only stand up for civil
due-process rights law, but equally important will appoint court
judges who will base their rulings
on objective constitutional and
legal principles, and not on the
basis of their own undemocratic
ideology or self-interest. The
informed, intelligent, and concerned voter is the answer. As
they say, if you dont vote, you
dont count.

Cartoon by Bill Lee of Sharon and New York City

Young men need something to turn to

write this column as I turn


32 and another mass murder
pierces the conscience of our
country. This column isnt about
policy; its about people. And a
certain kind of person: those
in the gray area between boys
and young men. Its not about
psychology, but experience, my
experience. While it may not
be universal I hope it provides
some insight.
I started upon this reflection
wondering how certain killers
end up so nihilistically violent.
Then I remembered my flailing
adolescent efforts to defend my
pride. Over time I found my
identity and dignity, and recognized those same qualities in
others, but for a while I struggled
to prevent my anger from becoming violent.
The writers Chip and Dan
Heath borrowing from the
social psychologist Jonathan
Haidt use a metaphor of a rider
on an elephant to describe the relationship between our rational
thinking and emotions. The riders logic can turn the elephants
emotions, but only slowly over
time. The rider doesnt force the
elephant to do anything because

he cant. The elephant takes the


rider many places he doesnt want
to go because he can.
Perched atop the Elephant,
the Rider holds the reins and
seems to be the leader. But the
Riders control is precarious because the Rider is so small relative
to the Elephant. Anytime the
six-ton Elephant and the Rider
disagree about which direction
to go, the Rider is going to lose.
Hes completely overmatched,
the Heath brothers wrote in their
book Switch.
This metaphor describes mature adults. While my self-image
is one of a logical, thoughtful
person, at some level even I
know I am more controlled by
emotions than Id like to believe.
This metaphor must be adapted to describe adolescence, at
least my own. The elephant was
particularly temperamental and
the rider particularly helpless.
To say I easily lost control of
my emotions while a teenager
is an understatement. Yet, even
then I saw myself as rational.
Hardly.
I can remember an early phase
when insults to my pride led me

The Foundry

Zachary Janowski
to aggressively seek what I then
considered justice. Vengeance is
probably a better word. I plowed
through people on the soccer
field or pulled hair in a fit of
senseless rage. Thankfully, I did
no permanent harm. With time
and not very much of it I
felt remorse. I even found my
own actions incomprehensible.
I eventually learned to control
these outbursts, but that wasnt
the end of my anger or warped
sense of justice. Deprived of an
immediate outlet, I stewed in
anger. Ill show them, I thought.
The question was how.
Looking back I feel discomfort more than anything else. I
see myself trying to fit in, wearing uncomfortable clothes and
experiencing feelings that are
even more uncomfortable.
As I pondered how to get even
when a peer stung my pride,
two things in particular led me

to forego violence. First, I had


someone left to disappoint. Of
course, I really had many people left to disappoint, but in my
consciousness usually one or two
stood out. Second, I could imagine another way to show them,
by becoming more successful.
Sometimes, even when I
didnt care much about how my
actions would reflect on me, I
cared enough about how they
would reflect on others that I resisted the urge to lash out. When I
wanted the instant satisfaction of
revenge, I realized that by waiting
I could prove how wrong the
other person really was.
Perhaps, if my experience is at
least somewhat representative, it
points us toward the antibodies
that prevent nihilistic violence.
Adolescent males need meaningful connections and a way out
and into the future. Today, as an
adult, I would call these things
community and opportunity.
Together, they create hope.

Another mass murder, trot out the thoughts and prayers

ith word of another


mass killing, this one,
the worst since Newtown, the campaign consultants
issued their tweeting orders:
Send out the usual thoughts
and prayers tweet.
And within minutes, they did:
Praying for those impacted
by shooting Mike Huckabee,
3:34 p.m.
Praying for the victims, their
families Jeb Bush, 3:39 p.m.
My thoughts and prayers are
with the shooting victims and
their families Ben Carson,
3:45 p.m.
My thoughts and prayers
are with the victims, families
and brave first responders
Rand Paul.
My thoughts and prayers
go out to those impacted by
the shooting, especially the first
responders John Kasich,
3:58 p.m.
Thoughts and prayers are
with San Bernardino Lyndsey
Graham, 4 p.m.
Our prayers are with the
victims, their families and the
first responders Ted Cruz,
4:07 p.m.
Praying for those victimized

by the shootings Chris Christie, 4:25 p.m.


All of these carefully crafted comments came within 51
minutes or so, along with two
that had the benefit of sounding
original. They came, not surprisingly, from Donald Trump,
who, regardless of what else
may be said of him, does tend
to be original. He may have even
written them:
California shooting looks
very bad. Good luck to law
enforcement and God bless.
Donald Trump, 3:38 p.m.
Later, he was a bit more
secular:
Police and law enforcement
seem to have killed one of the
shooters and are in a shootout
with the others. Go police.
Trump, 6:53 p.m.
The Democrats were heard
from as well, but seemingly without a thought or a prayer or, like
their Republican cohorts, much
substance:
Enough is enough. Its time
to stand up to the NRA and enact meaningful gun safety laws.
Martin OMalley, 2:36 p.m.
I refuse to accept this as
normal. We must take action to

Prickly frost

If You Ask Me

stop gun violence now. Hillary


Clinton, 3:26 p.m.
Mass shootings are becoming an almost everyday
occurrence in this country. This
sickening and senseless gun violence must stop. Bernie Sanders,
4:08 p.m.
Compliments to Martin
OMalley, the candidate with the
poorest chance of becoming his
partys nominee, for being the
only candidate to mention the
unindicted coconspirator, the
National Rifle Association.
Finally, nearly four hours
later, at 7:47 p.m., the last sound
bite was issued by a candidate.
Rick Santorum, the winner of
the 2012 Iowa Caucus, must
have done a lot of praying and
thinking before tweeting, Our
thoughts and prayers are with
the victims, their loved ones and
all those impacted.
After all these Republican
comments failed to mention

PHOTO BY JOEL ERNST

guns and the Democrats didnt


say their prayers, each side accused the other of politicizing
the tragedy and, of course, each
side did exactly that.
Then things got a bit more
testy and a little closer to home
when The New York Daily News
framed the clich-laden Republican comments around a front
page headline, God Isnt Fixing
This and Connecticut Sen. Chris
Murphy told his colleagues,
Your thoughts should be about
steps to take to stop this. Your
prayers should be for forgiveness
if you do nothing again.
Within hours, Senate Republicans stopped doing nothing.
They killed a bill that would
prohibit those on the anti-terrorist No Fly List from buying
guns. Since the list of 10,000
was created, 1,321 people on it
have bought guns, even though
as candidate and Sen. Marco
Rubio pointed out, just one evil
person out of 10,000 Syrian immigrants could commit an act
of terror. Senator Rubio voted
against the bill.

As the investigation continued, Rush Limbaugh and the


other rightwing radio raconteurs concentrated on President
Obamas unwillingness to smear
an entire religion by calling
the terrorists who are Muslims
Islamic terrorists or extremists.
Of course, he didnt call the
Evangelist who did the Planned
Parenthood killing a Christian
terrorist either.
The radio bloviators were,
however, silent when New York
Cardinal Timothy Dolan told
CNN on St. Patricks Day that
labeling an entire faith Islamic
terrorists would be akin to calling
the violent and often murderous
Irish Republican Army Catholic
terrorists.
The IRA claimed to be Catholic, said the cardinal. They
were baptized, they had Catholic
identification, but what they
were doing was a perversion of
everything the church stood for.

NATURE
Continued from Page A1
Professor and anthropologist-in-residence at New York
Citys Department of Sanitation Robin Nagle looks at how
that metropolis generates some
11,000 tons of throwaways a day.
In Picking Up: On the Streets
and Behind the Trucks with the
Sanitation Workers of New York
City (Farrar, Straus & Giroux),
Nagle is not satisfied to offer perfunctory history and dry facts.
She goes into the streets, first to
follow and observe sanitation
workers the nearly invisible
workforce that residents seldom
acknowledge then, after taking the exam and waiting her turn
on the hopefuls list, becomes a
sanitation worker herself.
Nagle gives us the lingo (fruit
wagon is another name for a collection truck) and describes the
workings of management and
labor and the atrocious habits
of some homeowners.
Graphic artist John Derf
Backderf approached the topic in
reverse order. He worked as a garbageman in 1979 and 1980 then
as an artist drew stories which he
turned into Trashed: An Ode to

the Crap Job of All Crap Jobs


(Abrams Comic Arts).
Main character J.B., in need
of employment, responds to a
village help-wanted ad and is
immediately hired for the
sanitation crew. In entertaining
visuals, Backderf visits many
of the same topics as Nagle, interspersing stories of trashmen
encountering unimaginably
noxious and belligerant bags of
trash or getting their revenge
on aggressive homeowners with
graphic full-page drawings of
the size of a pile of 1,460 bags
of trash, the amount (weighing
more than 7,387 pounds) an
average family of four discards
each year.
Nagles book has its light
moments but one has to plow
through the obligatory meat of
the subject.
Backderf s book has lots of
light moments but makes ecological aspects of closed landfills and
their toxic gases entertaining, if
nevertheless appalling.
Take your pick, youll come
away from either book more
concerned about our solid waste
issues.

Johnson.
It was the idea of Penny Terry,
another retired dispatcher, Baldwin said. She and her husband
bought the trees. Volunteers
from the troop landscaped the
two front corners of the building
and planted them.
There was also a ceremony at
the new dispatch center, which
was dedicated in memory of
Johnson.
While Baldwins request to
the state to pay for renovation
of the State Police, B neon pole
sign was denied, he believes it
triggered an assessment of the
grounds. A sign that marks the
property with the State Police
patch got a facelift, with a new
decal applied last week.
The refurbished neon sign is
expected to be completed and
reinstalled this month.
I am very grateful to Phil

[Ghi] and Gary [Rovelto] at Ghi


Sign for volunteering to redo the
sign, Baldwin said. They are
very professional and its going
to look terrific.
That effort is being done on
an absolutely volunteer basis,
despite word going around that
Ghi Sign was charging for the
work. They are collecting donations toward about $4,000 in
costs, with any extra funding to
be used toward work on the neon
State Police sign over the front
door, which is only half lit; and
for the Toys for Tots program.
The finishing touch, for
Baldwin, would be the removal
of Trooper Smurf. The bright,
blue call box was installed when
the barracks was locked at night.
We want it out, but the department says its keeping it up.
We put a sign on it telling people
to come inside and talk to a live
person. Thats what were about.

in 2000, when he and his older
sister, Laurie Gross, came back
for a multi-generational reunion
for the Webutuck Central School
District. He and Laurie were
enjoying the summer sun on
the front porch of the former
Simmons Way inn on Main
Street. He had a Secret Service
detail there keeping an eye on
everyone who walked up the
steps to see him.
There are still plenty of people
around the area who remember
him. One of his closest friends,
from the time they were in
kindergarten, was Ed Downey.
Ed shared some memories with
me of Sandy, in his office late
on Thursday, Dec. 3. He and his
wife, Meg, were flying to Washington the next morning for the
memorial service.
I also talked at length to my
cousin Laurie (Sandys sister);
she and her husband, Phil, were
in their car driving from their
New Jersey home to Washington,
also for the service and to be with
Sandys widow, Susan, and the
three Berger children.
Bergers Department Store
Sandy and Lauries childhood
here in Millerton has a kind of
mythic quality. Of course my
family always talked about the
tragic early death of their father,
Al Berger. But after I moved
here to the Tri-state region 20
years ago, I used to hear about
Als death from people in town,
especially Lew Saperstein, who
was a few years younger than
my cousins but knows their
history well.
In part, this could be because
the Saperstein family and the
Berger family had parallel businesses. They both ran apparel
shops in the center of town. If
you read the national newspapers, they all say that the Bergers
owned an Army Navy Surplus
store here in town. Thats a
correct but incomplete version
of the familys businesses. Ed

grandson, Erick who gave
Tadiello a loving hug in front of
the monument where he would
later lay a wreath.
At 5, Erick is too young to
comprehend what happened
on that day, a turning point in
history; but Tadiello will never
forget every detail.
While there were prayers,
poems and thanks for all who

served, Tadiellos mind goes


back those 74 years. Every time
he tells the story, it brings him
to tears. It begins with the young
sailor enjoying the tropical
sunshine on a Sunday morning
and ends with him removing
the body of a Japanese pilot from
the crane on his nearly sunken
ship tender.
This years service was expanded with a three-gun salute.
Marine veteran Brian Richard-

son of the Marine Corps League


bugled a poignant taps to end the
ceremony.
But it was Tadiellos humble
words, spoken softly to a crowd
that moved in close to hear, that
everyone took with them.
I am very pleased to be here.
It was just a matter of having to
do what we were supposed to do.
I greet all of you people here this
afternoon, and thank you very
much for your attention.

Former President Bill Clinton was among the guests at Sandy


Bergers 70th birthday party in October.
shared with me an old newspaper clipping that described Als
arrival here in town, in 1929,
when he was in his 20s (Rose
followed later).
In case youre wondering,
Rose was a member of the Lehrman family, and so am I. Thats
how Sandy and I are cousins.
Al moved here from Brooklyn
and opened Bergers Army and
Navy Store, which he ran until,
interestingly, he was drafted into
the U.S. Army. That store was
on South Center Street, Ed said.
It burned down in a fire several
years ago; the playground for the
Northeast Community Center is
on the spot where the store used
to stand.
Laurie remembers her father
as an entrepreneurial type, who
started several businesses here
and then sold them. According
to a 1952 newspaper article
that Ed shared with me, when
Al returned from his military
service he bought the Parsons
Glen-Lake Laundry in Millerton;
he later opened and operated
New England Cleaners, which is
still open, on Route 44 (he sold
the business in 1951). He also
at one point owned a business
that made aviator suits during
the Korean War.
In 1952 he purchased what
was known kind of grandly as a
department store in the center of
town, in the building that is now
home to Oblong Books and Mu-

sic. According to the newspaper


article, the store had been around
for 68 years and had been owned
by two men named Goodman
and Strauss and then by Irving
Bloch. Blochs Department Store
became Bergers Department
Store.
Laurie remembers that this
was the first business in which
her father actively involved her
mother.
She had been a schoolteacher
and didnt feel she was suited to
business, but it turned out she
had great business acumen, Laurie recalled. My father trained
her, and Sandy and I worked
there too. He swept the floors
and stocked the shelves. I helped
with sales.
Laurie wonders now if her
father had a premonition that he
was in failing health. Perhaps, she
thinks, he knew that he needed
to prepare his young family to
survive without him. Two years
after opening the store, he died
suddenly of a heart attack at age
44. Laurie was 12, Sandy was 8.
At first our mother wasnt
sure what she should do with the
store, she said. But she decided
eventually to give it a try. She
though it would give her some
financial security, so she could
pay for us both to go to college.
The Central School District
Education was important to
the family. Laurie recalled that
Rose Berger was part of the group

that helped regionalize the small,


town schools into what is now
the Webutuck Central School
District.
According to the local news
article about his death, Al Berger had been a member of the
new Central School Board of
Education.
Millerton schools were
closed for a half day March 16
in memory of Mr. Berger, the
article said. Many Millerton
business places were also closed
during the funeral services on
March 16.
The article described Al
Berger as one of Millertons
most civic-minded residents.
Certainly this legacy was passed
along to his son, Ed Downey said.
Next week: Bergers legacy of
public service.

A team of experts to help with healing wounds


By Cynthia Hochswender

There have been significant


changes at Sharon Hospital in
the past year or two but one
department that has remained
stable and productive is the
wound care center.
Inaugurated in October 2011,
the center has treated about
890 patients with wounds that
werent healing. Program Director (and registered nurse) Renee
Maus said that about 96 percent
of the wounds treated at the center are healed with interventions
that range from simple consultations to specialized synthetic
skin substitutes or the use of the
centers two hyperbaric oxygen
chambers.
Those are the most extreme
cases, explained the centers medical director, Dr. Douglas Finch.
The hyperbaric chamber is
the most advanced treatment
we have, he said, adding that it
is in use every day of the week.
Its used primarily with patients
who havent healed after 30 days
or more of standard wound care.
Not all wounds respond to the
hyperbaric treatment, cautioned
Dr. John Zboinski (known at the
wound care center as Dr. Z). A
podiatric specialist, his particular
area of expertise is helping patients who suffer from diabetes.
Many diabetics are prone
to foot wounds, because they
have vascular problems and
neuropathy, Dr. Zboinski said.
Neuropathy, he explained, is a
loss of sensation due to diabetes.
The end result of these
wounds for many diabetics is
amputation.
Our goal is limb salvage,
Zboinski said.
The hyperbaric chamber can
help.

With hyperbaric oxygen


therapy, the patient is in a pressurized chamber breathing in
air with a high concentration of
oxygen, Maus said.
The pressure in the chamber
forces the oxygen into the tissues
at a higher concentration, Finch
added.
Many other protocols are tried
before the hyperbaric chamber is
called into use, the medical team
explained. Sometimes all it takes
is a simple consultation with a
patient about his or her lifestyle.
We do a full assessment on
each patient, Maus said. We
look at circulation, sensation,
nutrition and vascular status.
We make sure theyre seeing
their primary care doctor and
trying to control their diabetes,
Zboinski said. We check their
diet and make sure theyre eating
the right foods. We check their
prosthetics, if they have them,
to be sure they fit correctly. We
check their shoes, too, to make
sure they fit well. If there is a
wound, its important to have
shoes that fit properly so the
pressure on the wound can be
offloaded.
If they have an infection, I
get involved, to make sure they
are getting the right treatment,
said Finch, who is an infectious
disease specialist.
Its an interdisciplinary approach, said Maus. It includes
podiatry, surgery, infectious
disease and nutrition.
If it sounds like there is a heavy
emphasis on aiding patients
who are diabetic, thats because
there is.
Theres a lot of diabetes in
the general population, and so
there is also a lot of it here in
the Tri-state region, Finch said.
I was one of the people who

really pushed for us to have a
wound care center here, because
there is so much diabetes, and
because I was seeing so many patients with wounds that werent
healing, Maus said.
There was no expert structured approach to follow-up after
someone was discharged from
the hospital, Finch added.
And then theyd end up back
at the hospital with another
infection, and sometimes there
would end up being an amputa-

tion, Maus said.


The elderly are another highrisk group for wounds.
There are a lot of people
with venous stasis ulcers, Maus
said. Those are caused by poor
circulation and its a problem
many of our older patients have.
Of the patients they see,
Maus estimated that 40 percent
are diabetics (from teens to the
elderly) and about 60 percent

Teamwork, selflessness will be key for Housy hockey


By Will Burchfield

FALLS VILLAGE The


Housatonic Valley Regional
High School (HVRHS) boys ice
hockey team suffered substantial
attrition due to graduation last
spring, but coach Dean Diamond
believes his returning core can
lead the Mountaineers to another
strong season.
The caveat, though, is this:
The players must embrace a
team-first approach.
They need to buy into the
concept that the win is more
important than any individual
thing you do, Coach Diamond
said. Its not about personal
stats, its about team stats.
That message rings true for
any team, but especially so for
the Mountaineers, who must
fill the holes left by last years
seniors through a group effort.
In all, Housy lost six players to
graduation in 2015, including
starting goalie Eric Chin and
leading scorer James Huftin.
Those arent easy pieces to
replace, but the departure of
one group of players opens
the door for another. And so
opportunities abound for the
Mountaineers, who will see new
faces emerge in key roles from
the drop of the puck.
On offense, Housy will be
led by senior co-captain Jason
Diamond, whose 36 points last
season ranked second on the
team. (Hockey is typically a game

controlled by bigger players; at


5-foot-6, the talented Diamond
is the exception to the rule.) He
will be aided up front by junior
Finn Bambery and senior Chris
Richards, the latter of whom
seems primed for a big season.
He could have a breakout
year, Diamond said of Richards,
who will likely center the teams
first line between Diamond and
Bambery. He definitely could
be an impact player.
In goal, the teams makeup
isnt quite as clear. But whoever emerges as the starting
net-minder will be supported
by a stout defensive corps led by
senior co-captain Seth Sherwood
and senior Garett MacLaren, who
will serve as an alternate captain.
After that, the Mountaineers
are noticeably young on the blue
line, but what the defense lacks
in experience they make up for
in talent.
Theyre young, but theyre
certainly capable, Diamond said
with conviction.
Housy opens the season
with a three-game homestand
beginning Monday, Dec. 21
against Byram Hills. After that,
the Mountaineers face off with
Suffield, the defending Division
II champions. For the Housy
team, which plays in Division
III, Diamond believes it will be
the toughest game of the year.
Get it out of the way early,
he said with a laugh.
And, ideally, learn from it. It

will certainly be a challenge for


the Mountaineers, but one that
is likely to pay dividends as the
season progresses.
Other notable matchups
include a pair of games each
against Woodstock Academy
(Jan. 18, Feb. 19), and Tri-Town
(Jan. 9, Feb 5), who knocked the
Mountaineers out of the state
tournament the past two years.
Itd be nice to get some revenge on them, said Diamond.
All of the teams home games
will be played at The Hotchkiss
School.

After a 13-5-2 finish last season, coach Diamond feels 12 wins


is a realistic target for this years
team. After that, he said, their
goal is to advance past the first
round of the state tournament.
To do that, the Mountaineers
will have to fuse their many different pieces into a cohesive unit.
It all starts with selflessness,
said Diamond. Whether in
practice or in games, you need
to work hard to do whatever you
can do make the team better.
It should be fun. The kids
are ready to go.

In the Midst of Life


We Are in Art

I
PHOTO BY MARSDEN EPWORTH

Danielle Mailer with her mural of a horse on the wall of a brick building on Maiden Street in
Torrington.

t just seemed to appear one


day, a very large mural of a
crow and a swanning figure
of a woman on one of the red
painted bay doors in Lakevilles old firehouse. Where did
that come from? Why is it
there? And, most urgently, who
made it?
It is clearly and distinctly
the work of Danielle Mailer,
with its fanciful scrolls and minuscule details, and the feeling
of figures caught in a spirited
and benign wind.
Mailer painted the mural two years ago and it has
hung for a time on a wall in
the Roger Smith Hotel in New
York City. It was quite a hit, she
says, with people taking selfies
of it, sending her the images
now and then.
But cities are dynamic places and beautiful things make
room for other beautiful things
and, recently, the hotel needed
to take down that wall. So
Mailer, with her husband Peter
McEachern, piled into their
1998 black rusty Mazda pickup
truck and drove to New York
to bring the image, broken
down to its seven pieces, back
to home territory. Wondering what she would do with it,
Mailer called Susan and Tino
Galluzzo, owners of The White
Gallery in Lakeville.
If you want something
done, these are the people to
call, Mailer told me. And thats
how the mural landed, at least
for now, on the old firehouse
door in the middle of Lakeville.
This is public art: images,
figures, shapes on city streets,
like Mailers Mountain Lion
above the Scoville Library
steps in Salisbury and the
horse on Maiden Street in Tor-

rington. It is a beautiful horse,


pinned to a brick wall with
great curls of a mane, limbs
decorated with petals and
winged creatures grasshoppers, butterflies, dragonflies,
hovering, magical.
Its transformative, Mailer
says of art in public places
on steps, on walls, on buildings. I am putting out small
messages of optimism. I try to
shift the cosmos a bit.
And she does. Its a thrill to
see something beautiful and
inventive in a place where
everyone walks and drives
and lives their ordinary lives.
It stops us in our tracks. It
inspires a moment of surprise
and joy.
Now, Mailer is at work on a
new and gargantuan project.
With the aid of people like
Amy Wynn of the Northwest
Connecticut Arts Council, numerous Torrington officials including the mayor and the city
planner, State Representative
Roberta Willis, many financial
contributors, enthusiastic supporters and, of course, a cadre
of devoted painters, young
and not so young, Mailer is
making a spectacular mural to
run 200 feet along the exterior
back wall of Staples overlooking Franklin Street, right in the
middle of downtown Torrington. For the moment, its
brilliant pink and yellow and
marine blue sections of dibond
trout are spread like puzzle
pieces on the floor in donated
space opposite the Warner
Theatre on Main Street. But
she figures it will be up and
swimming above the Naugatuck River bed by the fall of
2016.

THEATER: MARSDEN EPWORTH


A Christmas Carol

A Familiar and Beautiful


Holiday Tale of Redemption

eres a take on Charles


Dickenss A Christmas
Carol that an actor
like John Cleese could own
comfortably. Even admirably.
Half Moon Theater, performing
this holiday standard at the
Culinary Institute of Americas
theater in the Marriott Pavilion, gives this tale, in a tightened adaptation by Patrick
Barlow, a kind of zany snap.
And Darrell James, whose
Ebenezer Scrooge projects a
lean and angry look, tosses in
an occasional and unexpected
shot of antic glee.
The story is unaltered, of
course: a look at the indifference, even the hostility
that 19th-century haves had
toward the have-nots around
them. When women seeking charity for the poor visit
Scrooge, they are rebuffed. I
hate Christmas, Scrooge says,
many times. He just loathes
it, except for the profits he
makes when people borrow to
finance the season. And then
he jacks up the rate of interest
and diminishes the time for
repayment.
He is a bitter fellow, but
then Belle (Maria Silverman),
his fiance, had left him years
earlier, probably because he
was more interested in finance
than love. Scrooge is all alone
in the world with his trunkful
of gold coins.
The first act, though beautiful to look at, has a kind
of one-note quality: all of it
rather forced. But thats the
nature of any such tale bent on
revelation and reform. Dickens
was appalled by the poverty

he suffered in his youth and


the poverty of others in 19thcentury London. So instead of
writing pamphlets, he wrote
A Christmas Carol, listing the
plight of the impoverished, the
disdain of the privileged and
the consequences of letting
these inequities continue. It is,
after all, a mans soul at stake,
he is telling us.
So Scrooge rejects invitations to holiday feasts and
rails at his clerk Bob Cratchit
(Wayne Pyle), grudgingly paying him for the day he spends
with his family on Christmas
instead of at work.
The story is a familiar one,
with Scrooge receiving ghostly
visits from his old partner,
Marley, warning him to reform.
Although Michael Schirallis
direction is obvious, at times,

and things drag a bit, the acting


of Half Moon players is lovely,
with Shona Tucker, Ryan Walter, Pyle and Silverman playing everyone but Scrooge, are
delightful. Oliver Renfroe Katz,
stumbling in on his stump of
a crutch makes an appealing
Tiny Tim, and the costumes, set
and lighting are gorgeous. Most
particularly fine is Alex Levys
playing the violin. It was expert
and affecting.
A Christmas Carol by
Charles Dickens, in an adaptation by Patrick Barlow, runs at
the Culinary Institute of Americas Marriott Pavilion in Hyde
Park, NY, through Dec. 19. It is
a beautiful theater in one of the
CIAs many beautiful buildings.

A Day in the Studio of Peter


Woytuk with Friends

eter Woytuk's studio in


Kent, CT, may remind
you of an auto repair
garage. Every surface and shelf
is chock-a-block with bronze
or iron fruits, birds, tiny animals. Three laptops lie open
on a dusty table. The space,
just behind the Kent firehouse,
is huge, with a warehouse
door on one side that opens
to a grass and dirt field big
enough for bronze bulls to
come and go, but not enormous elephants.
Woytuk, of course, is the
most famous sculptor from
the Northwest Corner. In fact,
many consider him the finest
sculptor of animals in the
world. His robust bulls have
for years welcomed students
and parents to The Hotchkiss
School campus, while his lifesize elephants have enlivened
Columbus Circle in New York
City. Woytuk makes smaller

pieces, too. In his last show in


Kent, a group of small, heavy,
resting bulls created from
brown and green translucent
glass were showstoppers.
Casting large pieces requires expert foundries with
unusual capabilities. Woytuk
years ago found companies in
China and East Asia that could
meet his requirements, so he
moved to Thailand, where he
and his wife built a large compound north of Bangkok. He
spends about 10 months a year
there, receiving commissions
he has a lengthy backlog
and designing pieces on his
computers.
Now Woytuk is opening his
Kent studio to the public for
the first time. Working with
Judith Singelis of Argazzi Art
in Lakeville, CT, who now
represents him along with his
major gallery in Santa Fe, NM,
Woytuk has spruced up his

space, though not too much,


and painted a wooden partition wall white to show work
from six other artists. Two are
friends of his, four are Argazzi
artists.
Woytuk intends to show a
variety of new work, some created within the last week. (Be
sure to look for the delightful
salt and pepper shakers made
from small birds.) He will
explain how he works if asked,
but he is self-effacing. Dressed
in work clothes and a close-fitting knit cap last week, he was
open to questions, anxious to
show photos of his compound
in Thailand and his three
beautiful daughters. His wife,
equally beautiful, has flown in
from Bangkok for the event.
Woytuk has asked his
friend, Ken Daniels, to show
some drawings. He has invited
Phil Grausman, too, the maker
of large and small sculpture
portraits in white, stripped of
detail to reveal the structure of
faces.
Singelis will have the lovely
pictures of abandoned structures by Victor Mirabelli, the
vertical, abstract nature paintings of Michael Kessler, the
ceramic and bronze vessels of
Ann Mallory and the drawings
and paintings of Liz Dexheimer, whose pictures of nature
straddle abstract art and
impressionism. (I hope one of
her gorgeous, watery paintings
of koi will be there.)
Peter Woytuk's studio will
be open Saturday, Dec. 12,
from 3:30 until at least 7 p.m.
There will be music, food and
wine. The studio is located at
28 Maple St., behind the Kent
firehouse, just east of Rte. 7.

A Stunning View of Earth


And What Commerce Has Done

auru is an island made


up of palm trees and
bird droppings. Bird
droppings, as it happens, turn
into phosphate, and mining
this phosphate has made the
population of the 8.5-squaremile island nation in the South
Pacific among the richest in the
world. Of course mining this
rock of phosphate has leveled
the island, the environment
is in tatters, the revenue has
stalled and the population
is looking to Australia as sea
levels rise. This disaster made
Nauru a perfect subject for artist Jeremy Starns Mirrors in the
Sky, a beautiful and provocative
exhibit at Noelke Gallery on
Water Street in Torrington, CT.
The United States Geological
Survey, for which Starns father
works, makes these satellite
images of heat and light and
color available, without cost,
to anyone who can download
them on a computer. So Starn,
24, a fellow deeply interested in
how globalization has affected
life on Earth, has collected

thousands of them and, over


the last three years, he has been
layering them in Photoshop
into sometimes gorgeous and
always startling and abstract
images.
Among them, the layered
images of Nauru is the most
straightforward: a minuscule
rock in a vast expanse of blue
South Pacific water viewed
through tufts of cloud. Then
you learn, because Starn will
tell you, that nothing grows
there anymore, save a ring of
palm trees at waters edge,
and that almost all the food
is imported and processed,
contributing to the populations
startling obesity. Oh, and one
more disaster. Because foreign
corporations can no longer dig
phosphates out of Nauru, the
unemployment rate is amongst
the highest in the world.
You are looking at humanitys imprint, here, Starn says of
this image. You are looking at
its mark on the planet.
The marks are disturbing,
such as his view of Al-Jouf

Province in the Kingdom of


Saudi Arabia. This is about the
most important agricultural
area in the country, producing olives, dates, wheat and
other fruits and vegetables.
This sprawl of green and umber
hills is defaced by hundreds of
crowded-together brown spots,
pivotal irrigation wells sucking
up the underlying aquifer that
may run dry if the demands of
industrial agriculture are not
reduced.
And then there is the Kokaral Dam in Kazakhstan, built
to keep the Aral Sea from disappearing from the planet. Starn
says this lake figured, at one
time, the fourth largest in the
world was siphoned off to
fuel irrigation projects in the
1950s. The dam, built in 2005,
protected a small northern portion of the lake. Still, Uzbekistan is draining a river feeding
what remains of the Aral Sea to

aid its global cotton industry.
Starns image, collected from
satellite views and refined in
Photoshop, is a stunning look
at arid and desolated patches
of earth pressed against a small,
blue sea.
In all, Starn is exhibiting
images collected from satellite
views of varied spots including
the Korean Demilitarized Zone,

The Las Vegas Valley in Nevada,


New Orleans, LA, the Crimea
and one of Brazilian deforestarion.
All of them beautiful. And
sobering.

Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict

An Unerring Eye for Art


And a Complex Life

his documentary film,


Peggy Guggenheim:
Art Addict, by Lisa Immordino Vreeland, examines
the life of art patron, gallery
owner and all-American screwball Peggy Guggenheim.
The film follows her life
chronologically, from Guggenheims upbringing (her father
went down on the Titanic)
to her adolescent (and subsequent) rebelliousness and
unassailable ability as a spotter
of artistic talent.
The film makes good use of
audio tapes of interviews toward the end of Guggenheims
life by her biographer, Jacqueline Weld.
The tapes, made in 1979,
two years before Guggenheims
death, have the woman speaking
bluntly about her life lovers
(many of them famous), the tragedies associated with her family,
seven abortions, the soaring
price of art and why she helped
Jackson Pollock buy a house.

Her recollections are all


delivered in the speaking style
known as Long Island Lockjaw, in which the speaker tries
to move the lips, tongue and
jaw as little as possible.
Weld, who appears on camera, reveals that the speaking
style was learned at a Manhattan girls school that the young
Peggy and all the other daughters of wealthy Jewish families
attended.
A good cache of audio tapes
doesnt help with the visual side
of a documentary, so Vreeland
combines period photographs,
clips of avant-garde filmmaking (including Maya Deren
and Man Ray), and on-camera
interviews with assorted art
experts.
And she provides the audience with what amounts to a
crash course in 20th-century
art, via stills of the artworks
and the name of the artist ( for
rubes like me, who can tell a
Dali from a Picasso as long as

the light is good).


Guggenheim herself comes
across as an interesting and
very flawed character: narcissistic, pretentious, an indifferent mother.
But she had an uncanny
knack for finding the right art
and exhibiting it at the right
time and the wherewithal to
make things happen.
So Art Addict is a worthwhile film even for someone
who isnt especially interested
in art. Its a look back at a time
when it was possible to cause
a scandal by carrying on with
a married man or showing a
painter like Pollock.
Since we have no taboos left,
except perhaps cannibalism,
Guggenheims extravagances
and excesses seem positively
quaint. Charming, even.
Peggy Guggenheim, Art
Addict is playing at The Moviehouse in Millerton, NY. This film
is not rated.
