BAINBRIDGE – Trish Guokas and Marie Sroka will play
the title roles in the Out of the
Woodwork Players production
of Grace and Glorie this weekend in the Bainbridge Town
Hall Theatre.
Sue Atkinson directs this Tom
Ziegler comedy about a 90-year
old country cancer patient and
her NYC transplant volunteer
hospice worker. Curtain is at
7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday,
Nov. 7 and 8, with a 2 p.m. matinee on Sunday, Nov. 9.
Combining hope and humor
in doses driven by the all too
poignant theme of dignity in
dying, Grace and Glorie takes
us to the Blue Ridge Mountain
home of Grace (Guokas) who
has checked herself out of the
SUGGESTED PRICE 75¢
hospital to die alone in her beloved cottage. Glorie, (Sroka)
a seemingly sophisticated Harvard MBA, arrives with her
own emotional baggage. While
the battle with cancer wanes, the
battle of wits is just beginning.
In keeping with the battle
for cancer awareness and the
Bonnie Box project promoting
good cheer for those undergoing treatments for cancer, OWP
has joined forces with the tritown area Red Hat Pussycats
chapter who participate in the
national Bonnie Box project.
There will be a drop box at the
performances for items appropriate to the Bonnie Box gift effort. These shoebox-size boxes
are filled with needed supplies
and cheerful gifts for cancer

the holidays right around the
corner, cheer for those isolated
due to their health, is a most important ingredient.
Needed donations range from
unscented medically related
items like hand lotion, chapstick, pocket-sized hand sanitizer, little tissue packets and Dove
sensitive bar soap, to edibles
such as dark chocolate candy,

Guzy to Go Before
Grand Jury On
Murder Charge
BAINBRIDGE - The case
of Bainbridge resident John
M. Guzy, accused of second
degree shooting in the death
of Derek Prindle, 26 of Afton,
will go before a grand jury
later this month.
A felony hearing for the
retired New York City police
officer and recently hired corrections officer in Chenango
County, was held in a packed
Town of Bainbridge Court Friday, Oct. 31.
After hearing the testimony
of several witnesses, including three members of the New
York State Police called by
Chenango County District Attorney Joseph McBride, Judge
Brian K. Barnhart decided
there was reasonable cause to
believe Guzy had committed
a felony.
The grand jury will determine whether or not there is
enough evidence to indict him
on a second degree murder
charge.
BAINBRIDGE - There’s
something special about Pine
Ridge Grocery on Rt. 206 outside Bainbridge. Customers are
drawn to the store that offers
a selection of top quality deli
meats and cheeses fresh from
the Pennsylvania Dutch area
including the unique Stoltzfus
milk and cheese curds, as well
as a wide assortment of Dutch
Valley Bulk items for cooking, baking and snacking. And
that’s not all; there are also
delicious homemade breads,
pies, cookies and coffee cakes
prepared by Noah Gregory
and unique crafts from Lancaster, Pa.
It’s not just the food and
crafts that bring in customers,
it’s the friendly, helpful service provided by owners Michael and Lydianne Kauffman,
their family and 10 employees
who are friends and members
of the Grace Christian Fellowship Church.
Because of its value to the
community, Pine Ridge Grocery has been selected by the
Bainbridge Chamber of Commerce to be recognized as the
Business of the Year. They will
be honored at the chamber’s
Commitment to Community
dinner this Saturday, Nov. 8.
The business has an 18-year
history in the area including
eight years under the current
owners. Michael and Lydianne Kauffman and their family, Jeff, Mike, Josh and Heidi.
The Kauffman’s moved to
Bainbridge from Eaton, N.Y.
in Madison County in 1996
and 10 years later, in January
of 2006, became the owners
of Pine Ridge Grocery.
Pine Ridge Grocery has
operated under three families
since Steve and Rhoda Kauffman first opened its doors in
1996 and has undergone several expansions including the
building of an addition by the
second owners, Jim and Bren-

da Walters who purchased the
business in 1999.
Because of its growing
popularity adding to the need
for more space, the current
owners, Michael and Lydianne Kauffman, expanded the
building twice, once in 2009
when warehouse space was
added and again in 2013.
“The addition in 2013 allowed us to increase our selection of products by 50 percent,” said the Kauffmanns.
While Michael and Lydianne
recently moved to Lewisburg,
Pa., the store continues to be
managed by their sons Josh
and Mike. This past April, Jeff
too moved to Pennsylvania to
work in construction.
“We look forward to continuing to serve this community,” said the Kauffman family.
While customers have
shown their appreciation by
patronizing Pine Ridge Grocery, in return it has become
a tradition for Pine Ridge to
hold a Customer Appreciation
Day. This year was their 8th
event. It was so popular they
gave away over 700 hot dogs,
as well as cinnamon rolls and
drinks.
The Bainbridge Chamber
of Commerce will officially
recognize Pine Ridge Grocery
as Business of the Year at their
Commitment to Community
Dinner this Saturday, Nov. 8
at The Cream of the Crop, Rt.
7, Bainbridge. There will be a
social hour at 6 p.m. and dinner at 7 p.m.
Also being honored at the
dinner as the Citizen of the
Year will be Dave Worden.

Crash Zone Safety Act Helps Keep
Emergency Responders Safe on Roadside
AFTON - Answering the
concerns of local firefighters
in Afton, Senator Tom Libous
announced his “Crash Zone
Safety Act” at Prospect Terrace. The bill is designed to
help keep emergency responders safer while they’re saving
lives on the highway.
Existing law tells drivers to
slow down and move over, but
the new bill would establish a
specific 500-foot emergency
speed zone for the crash site
and beef up penalties for violators. The law also creates an
education program so new and
experienced drivers are more
aware of roadside hazards and
how to keep emergency workers safe.
“Every day, firefighters,
police and emergency workers respond to accidents only a
couple feet from traffic going
60 mph,” Libous said. “At that
speed, they’re an eye blink
away from serious injury or
even death.”
Afton’s Assistant Fire Chief
Chuck Sherman hopes the bill
will help his firefighters and
emergency personnel do their
jobs while protecting their
safety.
“We’ve had several occasions on I-88 where members
of our crew have had close
calls,” said Sherman. “As Assistant Fire Chief not only do
I have a responsibility to help
those who need it, but I also
have a duty to keep our crew
safe. Too many times we’ve
been put in risky situations because drivers are not proceeding through a crash site with
caution. An accident scene is
dangerous, especially depending on weather conditions. We
thank Senator Libous for hearing our concerns.”
The Crash Zone Safety
Act includes the follow
provisions:
•Requires drivers must slow
down to a minimum of 20 mph
below the normal speed limit
and give wide berth to emergency vehicles responding to
an accident.
•Creates an education program to make sure drivers are
aware of the new law.
•Violators are subject to
triple damages if they’re sued
for damages of death, personal
injury or property damage.
•Violators also face a mandatory surcharge of $100 to
$250 in addition to any traffic
fine. That money will go directly to an Emergency Zone
Safety Education Fund.
•Repeat offenders can face
vehicular assault, vehicular
manslaughter and criminal
mischief charges.
“I’d like to thank Senator
Libous for this legislation,”
said New York State Professional Fire Fighter Association
President Mike McManus. “I
represent over 18,000 professional fire fighters across the
state – the job is dangerous
enough without having to look
over your shoulder when responding to a call on the highway. There’s no doubt that
in the future this legislation
could prevent serious injury or
worse.
Nationwide, 136 police officers were killed between
2004 and 2013 at roadside
emergencies and traffic stops,
including Port Dickinson Officer Aldo Rossi in 2008, struck
as he was marking a downed
tree on Route 7 in the village.
Firefighters, medics, fire
police and tow truck operators all face similar danger,
like Town of Maine Fire Police Officer Joe Vargason, who
was killed in June 2001 when
he was struck by a car while
directing traffic at a fire scene.
“When I hear the dangers
– the horrors, really – that the
Afton volunteers and other
emergency service workers
face every time they respond
to a roadside accident, I knew
we needed to do more,” Libous said. “Recent tragedies
just highlight the dangers
emergency workers face every
day. We need to do everything
we can to make them safer.”

N.Y. STATE SENATOR
JAMES L. SEWARD
A Time To Honor Our
Veterans
On Veterans Day, Americans should pause and reflect
on the sacrifices made by our
veterans. Whether combat
veterans or Cold War veterans, all who served need to
be given proper praise for a
job well done. Our veterans
have faced hardships that a
non-veteran could never fully
understand. Some have faced
death in defending our nation’s
freedom. Veterans possess the
core American values of loyalty, duty, respect, honor, selfless service, personal courage
and integrity.
We need to teach our children the true meaning of Veterans Day and the best way
to do so is for adults to set a
good example. We must keep
the torch of memory alive and
never forget the sacrifices of
our veterans. We must get
American military history
back into the classroom and
the home. The youth of today
have to learn about the heroes
of yesterday.
All veterans, whether combat veterans, combat-era veterans or Cold War veterans
have had their lives altered
by their time in the service.
Prior to entering the service,
some soldiers had never left
their home community, yet
while in the service they may
have visited places throughout
the United States or overseas.
Some may have never have
had the opportunity to live,
work and play with other ethnic groups. These life experiences are what make veterans
unique and better members of
their communities.
We all lead busy lives and
at times overlook the meaning
of the service of our veterans.
They did their job so well
that our nation feels safe and
secure from a very dangerous world. Veterans deserve
to know that we appreciate
their service. We must let our
veterans know that we truly
believe America is better because of their service and sacrifice. Take the time to thank
a veteran, not just on Veterans
Day, but any day that you get
the chance to meet a veteran.
In recent years, I have been
afforded a wonderful opportunity to pay special tribute
to our homegrown veterans
through the New York State
Senate Veterans Hall of Fame.
The hall of fame was created
to honor and recognize outstanding veterans from the
Empire State who have dis-
tinguished themselves both in
military and civilian life.
Nominees from across the
state travel to the Capitol for
a special induction ceremony
on the floor of the state senate.
Among those gathered this
year was my inductee from the
51st senate district – Edward
Rossley of Bovina Center.
Edward Rossley wore multiple uniforms and proudly
served our nation in World
War II, the Korean War and the
Vietnam War. He first enlisted
at the age of 15 and when he
finally retired he had earned
over a dozen medals including
the Purple Heart. His decorated military career is matched
only by his continued devotion to his community.
In his post-military life, Edward went on to work for the
State University of New York
Police at the Delhi campus, retiring in 1990 after 20 years of
dedicated and faithful service.
He is a 42 year member of
American Legion Post 190 in
Delhi and has also spent three
decades serving as a member
of the Bovina Fire Department
including time as captain of
the emergency squad.
You can read more about
Edward and the rest of the hall
of fame inductees on-line, at
www.senatorjimseward.com.
Also, I will be seeking additional nominees next year, so
if you know a worthy veteran
be sure and advise me when
I solicit applications in the
spring.
Veterans Day is the time we
recall the courageous legacy
of soldiers who fought in our
nation’s wars, from the War
of Independence to Operation
Iraqi Freedom. Today our
soldiers, men and women, are
carrying on a legacy of valor
and service that soldiers before them established throughout our nation’s history. Our
country was made safe by
their sacrifices.
On November 11 let’s remember our veterans and their
service to our country.

November 6, 1959
Lee Pierce, Democrat, was
elected supervisor of the Town
of Unadilla at Tuesday’s election when he defeated Earl
Winger, Republican incumbent, by 67 votes. Pierce was
the only Democrat elected in
this predominantly Republican township. According to
opinions expressed in various sections of the town, the
county sales tax issue played
some part in the election results. However, two years ago,
the same two candidates ran a
close race for supervisor in
which Winger defeated Pierce
by about 134 votes.
LETTER TO
THE EDITOR
Treat Turned
Into a Trick
On Halloween
I debated about whether
writing this letter would reach
the responsible parties and decided that perhaps it will reach
their families.
I was ill on Halloween Eve
but had purchased candy to
hand out to the neighborhood
kids, so I put it out with a
“help yourself” poster. That
way the neighborhood kids
would not be faced with another dark door with adults
hiding till trick or treating was
over. What happened? Some
individuals stole the bowl that
held the candy.
I lost my favorite stainless
steel salad bowl and was saddened by the knowledge that
persons like this live in my
neighborhood.
I am content in knowing
that “what goes around, comes
around.”

HISTORICAL MINUTES NO. 1,110
by Charles J. Decker, Afton Town and Village Historian
NOVEMBER 2014
On Sunday, November 2, the Rev. Dr. Cheryl Alfond was our guest minister at the Afton Presbyterian
Church. It was All Saints Sunday. Her sermon was entitled “Ordinary Saints.” In “Webster’s New World
Dictionary of the American Language” of 1966, saint is defined as “a person who is exceptionally
meek, charitable, or patient.” Different churches have additional religious definitions.
Celebrations honoring saints have been held since earliest times, even in the 4th century. In medieval English times, the festival was known as All-Hallows Day, from which Halloween got its name
as it is the evening before All-Hallows or All Saints Day. Similarly, Christmas Eve precedes Christmas
Day.
All Saints Day, at least in Protestant churches, is not a day of great note. Halloween has become
a day celebrated in many countries, but may have no religious connection. At one time the Roman
Catholic Church combined pagan customs and a Christian feast into the Halloween festival. Today we
hear more about Halloween than about All Saints Day.
Celtic observances were primarily pastoral. As a result, crops, flocks, and herds had to be protected
from demonic forces, which were strongest at the turn of the year. This was combined with fire rites,
divinations, funerary practices, and masquerades. I once read that the original purpose of a jack-olantern was to scare away evil spirits.
Immigrants to the United States in the late 19th century, especially the Irish, introduced secular
Halloween customs to this country. Mischief-making by boys and young men was the customary activity, causing much damage. Even in my youth in the 20th century, this was common. My Uncle George
Decker had an outhouse which got tipped over every year, but he kept having it set back up. Chalked
inscriptions and streamers of toilet paper were also common and can still be seen today.
Today, trick-or-treaters are seen on the streets on October 31, often accompanied by their parents.
Householders must keep an ample supply of candy and snacks. Halloween decorations are prolific
on houses.

Juliet V. Still
HANOVER, N.H. - Juliet
V. Still, 96, beloved mother,
grandmother and great-grand-
mother, died Monday, Nov. 3
at Hanover Terrace, Hanover,
N.H.
She was born in New
York City on Sept. 27, 1918,
daughter of the late Joan and
Michael Ramoin.
She was predeceased by her
loving husband, Richard W.
Still in 2008; and her sister,
Helen Fletcher in 1974.
Her memory will always be
alive in the grateful hearts of
her daughter, Judy (Larkin)
Fothergill and son-in-law,
Todd of Round Rock, Texas;
her granddaughter and spouse,
Rachel (Larkin) and Jonah
Jackson of Austin, Texas; and
her twin great-grandchildren,
Davis and Audrey Jackson of
Austin, Texas.
She grew up on Staten Island and graduated from high
school there with courses in
dress design. She worked as
a seamstress for the House of
Mainboucher, New York City,
before moving to Afton to
marry Richard on May 8, 1943
in St. John Catholic Church,
Bainbridge. They were married for 64 years and 58 of
those years were spent as active members of the community and tireless workers for
the good of St. Agnes Parish
in Afton. Dick was the custodian of the church and Juliet
a member of the ladies guild.
She used her sewing talent to
make aprons, Christmas crafts
and baked goods for the yearly
church holiday bazaar. She became especially renowned for
her delicious molasses cookies, which were always the
first to sell out.
When Dick and Julie
bought the house on Academy
St., across from the growing Afton Central School, the
principal asked if they would
consider taking in teachers
who needed room and board
during the school week since
at that time there was no lunch
cafeteria at the school. They
consented and Juliet began
producing three meals a day
for the two teachers and her
family of three. Her fondness
for cooking and baking, surely
inherited from her father, a
trained hotel chef, served her
well then as it did all her life.
Two of the teachers “the Farley cousins” stayed through
their teaching tenure and were
always more like family than
boarders.
In addition to her housekeeping and charitable works,
Julie found time and joy making many clothes for her only
daughter (and her daughter’s
dolls) as well as herself. She
volunteered as an aide at The
Hospital in Sidney, worked as
a cashier at Jenks & Swart in
Afton, did piecework in Bendix in Sidney, retiring after 14
years. During those years she
also supported and cared for
her parents and in-laws as they
aged and needed care. She was
a role model of how to care for
the aging of one’s family.
There will be no calling
hours. A funeral Mass will
be celebrated at 10 a.m. on
Thursday, Nov. 6 at St. Denis
Catholic Church, Hanover,
N.H. Interment will be in the
summer of 2015 at Glenwood
Cemetery, Afton, and will be
announced at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in her name
to St. Denis Church Helping
Hands, 8 Sanborn Rd., Hanover, NH 03755 or St. Agnes
Church Needy Fund, c/o 34 S.
Main Street, Bainbridge, NY
13733.

Harrington Gallery to Host
Dan Harenza’s Photographs
SIDNEY – Being raised in
a rural setting, Dan Harendza
often spent days exploring in a
creek or in the woods close to
his home. He began early on to
develop a love for the outdoors
that deepened as he grew older.
Camping with the Boy Scouts
and weekend trout fishing trips
with his dad, uncle and brother
bolstered his appreciation of
nature. His dad always had a
camera to capture those great
memories, so it was exciting for
Dan to get his first Canon SLR.
His love of the outdoors will
be on display in the form of his
photographs which will be on
display at the Harrington Gallery, located inside Harrington
Photography, Art and Framing
on the corner of Main Street and
Cartwright Avenue in Sidney,
across from Houndstooth.
Dan’s nature and country
scenes will be in the gallery
now through Nov. 22.
“Over the years, autumn became my favorite season, with
the beauty of its changing colors. I made good use of that
camera. Years later it was the
transition to a digital SLR that
generated a more serious interest in photography,” Dan said.
With encouragement of family and friends, and having more
time after retiring from the U.S.
Postal Service, he joined the
Fine Arts Society of the Southern Tier to exhibit and possibly
sell some photos. “I am pleased
to have had some success. But
what I enjoy most about my
photography is the time spent
outdoors and the chance to
share the beauty of nature and
rural back roads which many of
us not often get to see,” he said.
Harrington’s is your one stop
for almost anything art or photo
related, Dan Harrington said.
He can restore old or damaged
photos (working from prints
or negatives), make professional grade prints on paper or
stretched canvas, and has a full
indoor photo studio. He specializes in custom framing. If you
are not sure Dan can do it or
how much it will cost you are
urged to bring it to his shop for
a free quote.
For the holidays, Dan offers
a reasonably priced print package. He urges customers to stop
in soon to insure your project
can be finished in time for the
holidays.
He is open Tuesdays and
Thursdays from 3:30 to 6:30
p.m., and Saturdays from 11
a.m. to 4 p.m. He operates the
photo studio by appointment on
Wednesdays and Fridays. You
can call Dan anytime at 2260570.

GILBERTSVILLE - The
Gilbertsville-Mt.
Upton
School Drama Club will present Rodgers and Hammerstein’s first musical collaboration, Oklahoma, Nov. 6, 7
and 8 at 7 p.m. in the school
auditorium.
Set in Indian Territory in the
early 1900s, the show follows
the courtship of Curley (Will
Schwartz) and Laurey (Elle
MacPherson) on the farmstead
of Aunt Eller (Jenna Bakhuizen) where hired hand Jud Fry
(Brandon Barrows) longs for
more of Laurey’s attentions.
Elaina Palada plays Laureyís friend, Ado Annie, the
girl who “can’t say no” to her
boyfriend Will Parker (Lu-
cas Piedmonte) or to the Persian peddler man Ali Hakim
(Tim Picozzi). Annie’s father,
Judge Andrew Carnes (Cameron Earl) stays hot on the
trail of his daughter’s wouldbe wooers as well as keeping
the peace in the community
of farmers, cowmen and their
families.
Some 18 others round out
the cast of Oklahoma and add
their voices to the chorus of
classic songs.
Curtain is at 7 p.m. Friday
and Saturday, Nov. 7 and 8.
Thurs. Nov. 6 is the performance for senior citizens
which follows a dessert at
6:30 p.m. Curtain is at 7.
Tri-Town Theatre Prepares To
Stage “The Addams Family”
SIDNEY - As Tri-Town
Theatre is entering its 51st
year and they are excited to
be back in the newly remodeled Sidney High School auditorium. The Addams Family
is from the book by Marshall
Brickman and Rick Elice with
music and lyrics by Andrew
Lippa.
TTT is happy to announce
Dan Spencer as director and
Karen Clark as musical director. Dan and Karen are both
veterans of TTT and we are
happy to have them working
on this production.
Dan is from Sidney and is
an elementary music and chorus teacher at Sidney School.
He is the director of operations
for the New York Summer
Music Festival in Oneonta,
there are over 300 music students hosted from around the
world each summer. He is no
stranger to community theatre
as he has been in Krazy for
You, Big the Musical, 9 to 5,
Kiss Me Kate, Sound of Music, and dramatic productions
such as Arsenic and Old Lace,
The Housekeeper, The Night of
January 16th and Our Town.
Karen settled in Greene in
2009 with her family and is
the band director for Afton
MS-HS and a private clarinet
and piano teacher. Most often
she can be found in the orchestra pit at the keyboard or
playing woodwinds for many
community theatre companies
in the area. When she isn’t performing or playing the role of
wife/mom, she can be seen in
a library working on her PhD
in educational research. Karen
was in TTT Willy Wonka as
Mrs. Gloop. Karen is very
thankful for being given this
opportunity to be the music director of The Addams Family.
Rehearsal has been under
way for two months and it is
coming together very nicely.
We have a cast of over 15 people from all over the tri-county
area, some are new to TTT and
we welcome them to our theatre group.
The Addams Family will be
staged on Nov. 21, 22 and 23
at the newly remodeled Sidney
High School auditorium. Tickets are on sale now at Century
21 in Greene, Rainbows End in
Sidney and Hometown Hardware in Bainbridge. Watch for
further information about the
play in your paper.
This play is being produced
with the generous assistance
of the Sidney United Way, of
which TTT is a proud member
agency.

Unatego Gets Another Crack at Tioga after
Holding Off Seton CC in Football Semifinals
Champions! Harpursville Volleyball
Claims First Sectional Title
OWEGO – For the third
straight year, Harpursville
faced Tioga in the Section
IV Class D volleyball
championship match.
This year, things finished
differently for the Hornets.
After losing two years in
a row, Harpursville finally
knocked off their postseason
nemesis – sweeping the
previously unbeaten Tigers in
Saturday’s title match, 3-0, at
Owego Free Academy.
The Hornets became the first
Midstate Athletic Conference
team to win a sectional title.
Game scores were 25-20, 2520, 25-20.
Harpursville (19-0) will
advance to the NYPHSAA
regional playoffs on Saturday
at Cicero-North Syracuse
High School.
Sarah Miller and Madison
Paugh led the dismantling
of the two-time defending
champion Tigers with 11 and
9 kills, respectively. Sarah’s
twin sister, Abbie, set up the
majority of those kills with
19 assists and also added
three aces, as the Harpursville
service game was solid
throughout the day.
So strong was the play of
Harpursville that their largest
deficit was a 5-0 hole to start
the match in game one.
Malley Bowen had seven
kills and nine assists for Tioga,
who finish 18-1.

Franklin Girls Trail Early, Fall Just Short To
Milford In Class D Soccer Semifinal
ONEONTA – Hannah
Saggese scored twice and
Milford took a 3-0 lead before
Franklin mounted a huge rally
that came up a goal short in a
3-2 victory for the top-seeded
Wildcats in a Section IV
Class D girls’ soccer match
last Wednesday (Oct. 29) at
the Wright National Soccer
Campus in Oneonta.
The rubber-match victory
(the teams split two earlier
matches, including Franklin’s
win over Milford in the TriValley League championship)
propelled Milford (17-1) to
the title match, where they
downed Delhi.
Saggese put Milford on
the board 6:30 into the match
when she picked off a bad clear
by the Franklin and scored
unassisted. She scored again
with 12:46 to play before half
when she converted Emilie
Mertz’ s pass.
Less than three minutes into
the second half, Mertz scored
her own off a Sharla Woodrow
helper, setting up Franklin’s
comeback bid.
Mariah McNeilly started
things with 28:43 to play
when she steered a low, hard
shot into the left corner of the
net, cutting it to a two-goal
deficit.
The goal lifted Franklin’s
play and several close calls
beckoned over the next several
minutes, but it took until 5:08
left to play before the second
goal would come, as Terry
Peterson’s hard shot clanked
off the hands of Milford
keeper Rukiye Henderson,
who missed a bit of time after
injuring herself defending a
cornerkick, and trickled over

One last chance for Franklin
came with 2:28 left when Jess
Downin’s cornerkick was
curving precariously toward
the goal, but Milford’s Rileigh
Griffiths was able to head the
ball out of danger and the
Wildcats staved off any other
trouble.
Franklin outshot Milford

ENDICOTT – Hopefully,
the third time is the charm
for the Unatego football
team when it faces Tioga in
Friday’s Section IV Class D
championship football tilt.
The Spartans earned its
latest matchup with the
defending champion Tigers
by getting past a pesky Seton
Catholic Central club, 41-27,
in a Halloween night semifinal
at Union-Endicott’s Ty Cobb
Stadium.
The fourth-seeded Spartans
(8-1) and Tioga (8-1) will
square off at 5 p.m. at Ty
Cobb. Unatego has had its past
two seasons ended by Tioga,
including an epic, recordsmashing 80-53 championship
game.
Friday night’s game wasn’t
in the bag until the very end
when Josh Wilsey picked
off SCC quarterback John
Giangreico’s desperation pass
and ran it in from 40-yards out
with no time on the clock.
Wilsey, whose defense was
key all night, also scored on a
5-yard run on 4th-and-1 with
1:51 left in the third quarter
that gave Unatego a 35-21
lead. However, SCC’s Sam
Crowley scored his second
3-yard touchdown of the
second half, finishing off a
nine-play, 47-yard drive with
7:41 left in the game. Dan
O’Brien’s PAT kick, however,
clanked the right upright,
forcing the Saints to have to
score and make a tough twopoint conversion to tie
After Unatego went threeand-out on its next possession,
SCC needed just three plays
to go from its own 39 to the
Unatego 29. However, the
Saints were backed up 15
yards after a tripping penalty.
Two plays later and facing a
4th-and-7 from the 31, SCC’s
trickery backfired when an
attempted reverse was forced
out of bounds after only a
two-yard gain, turning the ball
back to Unatego with just over
four minutes to play.
That gave the Spartans
possession with 4:05 left.
Unatego, behind three Wilsey
runs, picking up a key first
down. Just as important was it
forced the Saints to use all of
its timeouts. By the time they
got the ball back, Seton had
just over a minute to cover
69 yards for a potential tying
drive.
Wilsey, however, put an
end to the effort when he
made a leaping interception
of Giangreico’s pass in the
middle of the field, got to the
right sideline and sprinted
to the end zone as the clock
struck 0:00.
Unatego led 21-7 after a
quarter, as quarterback Josh
Feyerabend threw touchdown
passes to Ryan Marszal and
Kyle Spaulding and also ran
in a score from seven yards.
Crowley, who led SCC
with 146 yards rushing,
scored on one-yard run to cut
the lead to 21-14 with 3:46
before halftime, but Tanner
Winchester’s 5-yard run
gave Unatego back its twotouchdown lead with 1:45 to
play in the half.
Feyerabend completed 9-of17 passes for 134 yards and
Wilsey had 49 tough yards on
15 carries for Unatego, who
forced foru turnovers.

Whitney Point could not get
shots past Afton goalie Tori

keeper in the second half and
went on for the 3-0 victory
over the Crimson Knights
in the Section IV Class C

Six minutes later, Elaina
Burchell collected up a

Quote of the Week
Quote of the week is from
David Allen: “You can do anything, but not everything.” As
a comment I would say that
it’s true, we can do anything
if we try, and we can try to
do everything, which means
whatever we consider everything to be.
School News
Good luck to all students in
grades 7 -12 this week as they
are doing quarterly assessments all week.
Parents don’t forget you
have parent/teacher conferences on Nov. 6 and Nov. 7 for
students UPK-6 only with half
day each day.
SAT tests will be taken on
Saturday, Nov. 8 in the high
school cafeteria at 8 a.m.;
good luck to all.
There will be no school on
Tuesday, Nov. 11 in honor of
Veterans’ Day. Let’s not forget
our men and women who gave
their lives so we could be free.

there will be a high school
band and chorus fall concert in
the high school auditorium at

On the Farm
This week has been quite
busy with some family members helping to fill the cellar
with our winter’s wood supply.
We all have been stacking the
wood that has been cut up in
the woods and put in the cellar.
On Saturday everyone came
down with a load of wood and
one of the grandchildren spotted a cow coming up the lane
with her calf following. We
sent for some help and everyone came to open the gate for
her to come into the barn. This
is quite rare that happens here,
that a calf follows the mom to
the barn. Our grandson said,
‘that’s great, I didn’t have to
get her from the hill, that was
easy!” Harold said, “I guess
she just wanted to be milked.”
The calf is a heifer and we are
having a time trying to get her
to suck the bottle, though we
have to keep on trying. Sunday was another day of getting
wood with our family. Everyone was wet, cold and tired but
there is another load to stack.
Hunters Ham Supper
Our committee is preparing
to get some calls this week for
donations for the supper on
Saturday, Nov. 15, the first day
of rifle deer season. We will be
having a peeling bee on Friday,
Nov. 14 beginning at 9 a.m. at
the church. All are welcome to
help, if you have some time it
sure would be appreciated. If
you have questions, call Anne
Scott at 265-3368.

flowers, bubbles, small notebooks, crossword puzzle and
word search books with pens
keep isolated patients entertained. Reading material should
be light such as magazines and
small inspirational books. Cases
