Ice wreaks havoc at library
Town employees work to remove snow from roof, stop leaks
By Stephanie Spyropoulos
Express Staff
Several town employees
gathered to remove snow from
the roof of the Hanson multi-
service center and library
Monday following a week of
leaking ceilings.
Town Engineer Al
Hanscomb planned to at-
tend the Board of Selectmen
meeting Tuesday to begin the
process of deciding how best
to deal with the water damage
at the library, but the meeting
was postponed because of yet
another winter storm.
The roof eventually will
need to be replaced, but com-
ing up with how to pay for it
has yet to be discussed, Town
Administrator René Read said
“There is not a large
amount of damage, but it has
been an ongoing problem, and
it needs to be dealt with as fast
as possible,” Read said.

Cappellini said it had been a

passed a strong anti-bullying
law last spring, teachers and
students at Hanson Middle
School decided it was time
to act themselves. As part of
their summer reading, sev-
enth and eighth graders were
assigned “The Revealers,”
a novel by Doug Wilhelm.
The novel is about a group
of students at the fictional
Parkland Middle School
who, finding themselves ha-
rassed and bullied, decide to
fight back in courageous and
creative ways. As the title
implies, the characters com-

The senior center had a

of early Monday.
Town custodian Brian
Clemons, Read, Fire Chief
Jerry Thompson and Hanson
Fire Lt. John Rothwell spent
two hours Monday on the roof
removing snow and ice, which
was in layers from the several
weeks of melting and refreez-
ing.
Clemons was able to put
ice melt over the roof follow-
ing the clearing, according to
Read.
With anticipation of back-
to-back storms by mid-week,
Read said Monday he is not
happy with the weather as it
has the town operating in defi-
cit spending on snow and ice
removal. At a recent select-
men’s meeting, the board ap-
proved deficit spending for the
Highway Department in order
to keep up with the countless
inches of snow that fell in De-
cember and January alone.
“The tremendous snow-
fall is costing the taxpayer,
between snow removal, man
hours, salt, sand and equip-
ment,” Read said.
The snow and ice budget
also has to cover overtime for
highway and town employees.
Because of the sheer volume of
snow over the past few years,
the Board of Selectmen and
Finance Committee had voted
an increase in snow removal
funding back at Town Meeting
in June.
Town Meeting voted to
increase snow removal to
$85,000. Read said he would
like to get more in line with
what is happening with the
budget and gradually increase
it over the next years.
His purpose is to protect
the free cash, money left over
at the end of the fiscal year, that
can be used for other items,
which he sees as important to

of using it to cover the over-
flow caused by snow cleanup.
“The snow and weather
have been devastating. We
did not have the money to put
toward the budget. The funds
for snow removal have been
grossly under funded,” he said.
“We increased as much as we
could, based on the amount of
money we had to use.”

Richardi) and new girl Cat-
alina Aarons (Jessica Veneto).
Each of them is bullied by dif-
ferent students — a hardscrab-
ble loner, a group of jocks and
a queen bee. The play explores
the different kinds of bullying,
from the verbal threats and
physical assaults of boys to
the rumor mongering and so-
cial ostracism of girls.
During the course of the
play, the three students —
Russell, Elliot and Catalina —
become friends. They talk to
one another about their prob-
lems and support one another
in their struggles — in person,
by telephone and by computer.
Russell solves his problem the
old-fashioned way by meeting
his bully and standing up to
him. Elliot and Catalina make
use of a computer network to
publish their stories and oth-
ers’ stories of victimization
and in so doing are able to re-

claim their dignity.
The show was full of many
strong performances. Among
them was Jimmy Fagan, who
was effective as intimidating
but oddly likable bully Richie
Tucker. And Kristen Small
was vicious as resident queen
bee Bethany DeMere.
The soundtrack, an eclec-
tic mix of angst-ridden rock
from the Ramones to Vam-
pire Weekend, played before
the performance and between
scenes, and set the tone of ad-
olescent heartache and exulta-
tion.
The genesis of the Hanson
performance is an interesting
story itself.
“We contacted the author
of the novel, Doug Wilhelm, to
ask his permission to adapt the
book as a play,” Candler said.
“Imagine our surprise when
Wilhelm responded saying he
had already adapted it himself
and that he would be happy
to send us the script with his
blessing.”
Wilhelm himself even vis-
ited the school to meet with

Man charged with OUI
after crashing into garage
A Hanson man is facing OUI and other charges
after he crashed his truck into a garage on Lazel
Street early Sunday morning, then landed in a snow
bank when he tried to back out.
Police dispatch received a call around 3 a.m. Sun-
day, Jan. 30 from a resident who said there was a man
who appeared to be intoxicated causing a disturbance
in a pickup truck outside a home on Lazel Street. As a
cruiser arrived to search the area, a second call came
in reporting that a male party was trying to break into
a garage on the same street.
Upon arrival, the officer observed a pickup truck
that had backed into a snowbank and got stuck. The
operator was still in the driver’s seat and revving the
engine, trying to get the truck out, but the wheels
were just spinning. The officer approached the vehi-
cle and ordered the driver several times to shut off the
engine, but the driver continued to rev the engine and
at one point allegedly turned the wheel toward the of-
ficer, Whitman Police Chief Christine May-Stafford
said. The man finally turned off the engine, and the
officer approached, noting the smell of alcohol on the
driver’s breath.
The driver, Stephen J. Kemmett, 22, of Bay State
Circle, Hanson, reportedly blew a .23 on the breatha-
lyzer test, May-Stafford said.
Kemmett was arrested and charged with operating
under the influence, negligent operation of a motor
vehicle, malicious destruction of property over $250
and assault with a dangerous weapon (for attempting
to drive the vehicle in the officer’s direction).
Kemmett was released later that day and arraigned
Monday in Brockton District Court.

Do you need assistance? –––––––––––––––––
If you know of a senior or infirm person
who may need assistance during emergencies,
please contact Mary Collins at the Hanson Se-
nior Center, 781-293-2683, ext. 7.
The Hanson Senior Center maintains a list
of persons who may be seniors, elderly, infirm,
homebound and/or frail to help the town provide
assistance to them during various emergencies,
including snowstorms. This information be-
comes crucial during power outages, where the
need to have back-up or emergency electricity
may be required (such as in-home dialysis, etc.)
or other medical needs (such as oxygen).
As a result of this season’s storms, and in
an effort to assist the Senior Center’s public

To request exclusion from mosquito control
The Plymouth County Mosquito Control
Project understands that there may be some in-
dividuals who want to have their property le-
gally excluded from the pesticide applications
used in mosquito control. As a result, the Proj-
ect would like to inform those individuals of
the steps necessary to make such a request, as
specified by Massachusetts Department of Ag-
ricultural Resources regulations.
Such application is made by a person living
on, or legally in control of said property.
The application must be sent in the form of
a certified letter to the municipal clerk’s office
by March 1st (annually).
The letter must include the name, address,
and telephone number of the person making the
request.
The letter must include the address of the
property to be excluded.
The letter should include a description of
the types of pesticide application programs for
which exclusion is requested.
Free home energy audit
For information about a free home en-
ergy audit residents should e-mail Green
Hanson at greenhanson@gmail.com. Mas-
sachusetts Climate Action Network is work-
ing hand in hand with several organizations
in 2011 to encourage residents all around the
state to get their homes checked for energy
efficiency and conservation, and to follow
suggestions of the assessors to get quick en-
ergy savings. In addition to saving money
by using less energy, residents will also be
cutting down on carbon emissions. And the
assessment now can include a blower door
test and infrared analysis, two technologies
that greatly improve the assessment’s use-
fulness.

assistance to these residents are met. Therefore,
we are asking that if any resident who may fall

of Hanson residents that may need this type of
assistance) could contact the Senior Center with
their current contact information we would be
most appreciative.   fective Secretary of Veterans’ Affairs Retired

Additionally, the person requesting the
exclusion has the responsibility to mark the
boundaries or areas to be excluded at least ev-
ery 50 feet with orange surveyor’s tape to clear-
ly define the area of exclusion. These mark-
ings shall be made known to the Project and the
Project will be responsible for communicating
the details of the markings to the individuals
who will carry out the pesticide applications.
While the application is sent to the munici-

that the role of clerk’s office in this process is
simply to be the recipient of the certified let-
ter. All questions concerning these regulations
should be directed to the Plymouth County
Mosquito Control Project at 781-585-5450 or

“Winter will most likely go on for “I think winter will go on for six
six more weeks.” more weeks.”
It’s a matter of trust
F
or a number of years now, the news has been filled
with stories about the people’s dissatisfaction with
government at all levels. At the federal level, the
controversy over healthcare regulation, so-called Obama-care,
is the leading topic of congressional debate. It is among the
primary reasons for the Republican resurgence in the mid-term
elections.
The budget deficit, the administration of the Social Security
Trust Fund and the viability of the Medicare system and illegal
immigration are also topics of great concern
and debate.
At the state level the killing of a Woburn
police officer by a paroled triple-life-sentenced
career criminal was catalyst for the sacking
of nearly the entire parole board and public
outrage and calls for eliminating parole all
By Emery Maddocks together. The unseemly firing of the very ef-
Navy Captain Tom Kelley, a Medal of Honor recipient, to be
replaced by a Democratic Party hack, has sent the veterans
community into paroxysm of rage. Corruption and careerism
in the Legislature, real and perceived, has driven taxpayers to
distraction.
At the state and local level, the inability of state and local
governments to deal with budget issues including public em-
ployee compensation and benefits has fueled more voter resent-
ment. There seems to be no truth in
criminal sentencing, no enforcement Getting real
of existing laws for illegal gun possession, drunk driving, im-
migration issues and so on.
Each of these issues is, in and of itself, serious, but col-
lectively they are really symptomatic of a much more serious
problem for our democracy. People have lost, or are losing all
faith and trust in our government to do the right thing. They
are coming to believe that even when the “government” wants
to do the right thing it lacks the ability to do anything right.
The perception is bad intent coupled with incompetence. The
taxpayers correctly feel put upon. Taxpayers feel they are get-
ting short value for long money. Something must be done to
correct this situation or we feel something sinister may occur.
Widespread distrust of all government leaves us vulnerable
to demagoguery and extreme movements that promise to fix
all problems and restore order in the public sector. History is
replete with stories of the systemic breakdown of formerly
stable governments when they lose the trust and respect of the
governed.
We’ve outlined the symptoms, now what is the cure? How
do our leaders restore the faith of our citizens? There would
appear to be few treatments and only a prognosis for gradual
recovery. First we need and should demand transparency at
every level of government. We must demand that leaders meet
regularly with the media for the hard give and take of real press
conferences. At the state level we need a constitutional amend-
ment to do away with a full time career Legislature and replace
it with what most states have, a part time legislature compen-
sated with stipends and expenses only. We must drive political
careerism out of Beacon Hill. We must demand that judges
enforce the law by further restricting judicial discretion in such
things as enforcing gun laws, making life sentences mean life,
by enacting legislation to put third felony conviction criminals
away for long periods of time, if not life without parole. We
must restore sanity to public employee compensation to save
needed public sector jobs and to put these public servants on an
economic par with their private sector contemporaries.
As in a marriage where there has been infidelity, restora-
tion of faith and trust will take a long period of time and many
discussions. Failure in marriage leads to divorce. Failure in our
relationship with our government could lead to a really messy
divorce that we may all regret. As citizens we can not take a
pass on this. We need to stay informed and engaged or there
will be no improvement. The choice is ours.

Legislators share budget
news at breakfast meeting

accounted for in the regular
budget or be eliminated.
For Whitman-Hanson Re-
gional School District, that in-
cludes three special education
teachers, a speech therapist,
reading and math tutors, all of
which have been added to the
district’s preliminary FY2012
budget presented at the Satur-
day morning meeting.
The preliminary opera-
tional budget, which totals
$46,979,637, would enable the
district to maintain its current
level of service with minimal
cuts, Gilbert-Whitner said. It in-
cludes adding back in $211,619
for teaching positions previ-
ously covered by ARRA funds
as well as adding in money for
the one furlough day that all
union and non-union school
employees agreed to take this
school year to save the district
money in the FY2011 budget.
The budget also incorporates
items previously covered by
other federal or state grants,
such as Jobs Bill funds.
The budget sets aside
funds for contract increases
— teacher contracts are up in
June and the School Commit-
tee is in the early stages of ne-
gotiating a new contract. And
it sets aside money for increas-
es in special education tuition
and transportation costs — the
district also is in the process of
negotiating a new busing con-
tract. Health insurance costs
also are expected to rise by
about 11 percent in FY2012.
In her introduction to the
budget, Gilbert-Whitner called
the FY2012 budget “especially
challenging.”
“For the past two years, the
district has relied heavily on
federal funding as a way to en-

sure that students are provided
with high quality educational
experiences,” she said. “The
Whitman-Hanson Regional
School District budget for the
2011-12 school year is the
product of the thoughtful input
of administrators and directors.
[…] While we are mindful of
fiscal constraints, the FY2012
budget book also proposes
several additional programs
and positions that we believe
are necessary for the education
of our students, some of which
have been funded by federal
stimulus grants.”
Though funding is tight on
all levels, there is some sign
that Chapter 70 state aid to
Whitman and Hanson will not
be cut significantly this year,
legislators said.
“The governor has done
remarkable in his House 1 bud-
get in mitigating severe cuts
on Chapter 70,” Senator Tom
Kennedy said. “The cherry
sheet’s another story for local
towns, but he has promised to
hold back on education, and
he’s come through with that.”

Maquan cares!
Pennies for patients
Thank you to our very
generous community of staff,
children and parents. The chil-
dren collected $400 in pennies
to provide funding for vital
research for blood cancer and
to help financially-challenged
families deal-
ing with leu-
kemia and
lymphoma.
This is the
second year
in a row that
By Ellen Stockdale we have col-
Principal
Maquan Elementary lected “Pen-
School nies for Pa-
tients” and we
are very proud of our students
and have a wonderful letter
from the Leukemia and Lym-
phoma Society thanking our
students for the good work
they have done. We have a
motto at Maquan and it is …
“Maquan Cares!” We will al-
ways explore other ways we
can help those less fortunate
than ourselves.
Maquan Happenings
Please plan a visit to
Maquan to see the wonder-
ful work of so many fabulous
children. Travel down our
main hallway and see the mes-
sages written from the hearts
of children about our goals of
acceptance and understand-
ing. “We are all alike and we
can be different.” The children
have been very busy promot-
ing the message of Dr. Martin
Luther King and our own Re-
sponsive Classroom message
and our 2010-2011 school
climate message of caring for
one another and appreciating
our individual differences.
The message of Respon-
sive Classroom is to build so-
cial, emotional and academic
growth in a strong and safe
school community. Dr. King
had a dream that his children
would one day live in a “nation
where they will not be judged
by the color of their skin but
by the content of their char-
acter.” Our children are learn-
ing important messages about
caring, sharing and character
in the 21st century every day.
We live by “Every Day, Every
Child.” We thank you for your
continued support.
Read Across America
Once again, we will com-
memorate the birthday of Dr.
Suess! During the week of
March 7, Maquan will wel-
come many important celebri-
ties to our building as “Com-
munity Readers.” Celebrities
from all across the Whitman-
Hanson Regional District will
be invited to read a favorite
book to the children in grades

Thursday: Macaroni and cheese with a ham slice and pineapple, dinner

Career Ladder
Reporter
Clipper Press is looking for a
full time news reporter for our
small but hardworking staff.
This position requires strong
writing and reporting skills and
a passion for community
journalism. Must be able to
report on the stories that need
covering and uncover the
stories that need telling – all
under the pressure of
deadlines.
Reporter will cover a range of
town government fare,
including the school board,
selectmen, ZBA and police
news, but also be encouraged
to seek stories outside the box.
The job title says reporter but
the right candidate must also
be somewhat of a Jack-or-Jill-
of-all-trades. Position includes
some responsibilities for copy
editing, photography and
layout. Person does not need
to be an expert, but should be
comfortable with computers
(Macs, a plus) the Internet and
certainly AP style. Familiarity
with Adobe InDesign is also a
plus.
This is not an entry-level
position per se, though we will
consider applicants with strong
college newspaper experience
and journalism degrees or
significant internship
experience
If you are not from the South
Shore area please indicate how
quickly you would be able to
relocate and how you would be
available for an interview. We
prefer candidates who live
close to our South Shore based
office. Please include salary
requirements with your resume
and clips.
If you are a hardworking
journalist who wants to learn
the newspaper business this
could be the perfect position
for you.
Clipper Press is an independent
family-owned newspaper
company that's been delivering
hometown news since 1950.
We offer a good salary and
benefits package including IRA
with match, profit sharing.

MUSINGS
by JHC
• Trying to solve the country’s
problems with Congressional
oratory is like trying to untangle
a traffic jam by honking the
horn.
• He talked as if he thought the
whistle pulled the train.
• Arthur Balfour said Herbert
Asquith’s clarity was a liability
because he had nothing to say.
• The Antarctic ice cap is the
world’s largest supply of fresh
water.
• It has been said that an imma-
ture artist imitates and that
mature artists steal.
• William White, author of sev-
eral best sellers, was once fired
from the Washington Post “for
incompetence in every depart-
ment of the newspaper.” Jules
Verne was also fired from a
newspaper, as was Franklin P.
Adams. But as F.P. A. put it,
they were fired with ambition.
• Life is like an onion. You peel
if off layer by layer and some-
times you weep.
• Asinine sights: Big league
baseball players blowing bubble
gum.
• Santa Clause has the right
idea: Visit people once a year.
• Reading is sometimes an
ingenious device for avoiding
thought.
• If you are a boss, sometimes
be blind; if an employee, some-
times deaf.
• When Bill O’Dwyer wavered
about running again for the
mayoralty, a rival said: “There’s
one thing about O’Dwyer — you
never have to be in doubt about
him until he makes up his
mind.”
• “A liar’s punishment is that he
is not believed even when he
tells the truth.” The Talmud.
• We’ve all heard the statement
that there are three kinds of lies:
lies, damned lies, and statistics.
But do you know who first said
it? It was Benjamin Disraeli.
• “The secret of staying young is
to live honestly, eat slowly, and
lie about your age.” Lucille Ball
said it.
• Will Rogers was ethical as well
as funny: “I would rather be the
man who bought the Brooklyn
Bridge than the man who sold
it.”
• Money doesn’t start ideas;
ideas start money.

was supposed to tempo run, so no one was running at full
capability. Nevertheless, these kids were faster than me

to the point where, after about two or three minutes, they
were out of my field of vision. At this point, I made a life
decision that, there was no way I was going to catch back
up, I might as well walk. Then, the kids showed up on the
other side of a pond from me and, trying to save what little
face I had left, I ran again until they disappeared and it was
safe to resume my leisurely fitness stroll.
This worked until I came to a fork in the path and
hadn’t seen the kids in so long that I had no idea which
way they went (this was about five minutes into the prac-
tice). Luckily a middle-aged woman was hiking around
and when I asked her if she had seen some kids running,
she replied “Oh yes, they came by a while ago” as vaguely
as you please. All in all, I think I ran/jogged about 40 yards
and walked the rest.
I eventually made it back to Zopatti and spent the rest
of the practice talking to him about what he does for kids
who join the team and are as bad at this as I am and how he
works with them while trying to get his elite runners ready
for their races. He told me stories of kids who couldn’t run
from the high school to the Hobomock Ice Arena around
the corner when they started and are now running full
practices without the slightest hint of the nausea that I was
trying to hold down from my glorified power walk.
My goal was to try to figure out the appeal of cross-
country running, because both towns I cover have teams
that rival if not eclipse the size of the football teams, and
they compete to win championships rather than get in
shape for another sport. The answer to why you would
spend your afternoons running up and down hills, through
forests and swamps is, it would seem pretty simple: so
you can do it again faster. There is a unique sense of ac-
complishment that comes with one day being able to do
something that seems like torture without breaking a sweat
and then adding another challenge to be completed. Add
that to the team aspect of high school sports and it truly is
a unique experience, albeit one I will never try again after
eating at Burger King.

captain Michaela O’Neil
O
’Neill has captained her basketball team to a 5-7 record so far
this season. She shares her thoughts on …
…choosing a college. I’m applying to Sacred Heart Uni-
versity, Quinnipiac University, Springfield College and
Bridgewater State. My top choice is Sacred Heart because I
really like the campus, and it’s two and a half-three hours
away so it’s far enough away, but not too far.
…selecting a major. I’m majoring in athletic training
because I’ve been involved with sports for my entire life
so I just think it’s a field that I won’t lose interest in. I also
like that it’s a career where you get to help people.
…her favorite sport. My favorite sport is definitely
basketball. I’ve been playing since I was little and I like be-
ing part of a team. I feel like I understand the game well,
and I like when the team comes together on a well-executed
play.
…her best sports memory. My best sports memory was
last year during basketball season when we played our last
regular season game against New Bedford. Going into the game,
they were undefeated and we had suffered a pretty bad loss to them
earlier in the season. We realized that we had nothing to lose and
played with a lot of heart and determination. We managed to come
out with a win and put an end to their undefeated record.
…her future goals. I hope to continue playing basketball in
college, whether it’s the actual school team or an intramural team,
and hopefully get a good job maybe working with a professional or
semi-professional sports team.
…her hobbies outside of sports. Hanging out with my friends,
spending time with my family, reading and going to the beach.

The two teams that met for
the 2009 state championship
went at it again on Thursday,
and again, it was Fontbonne
Academy coming out on top
of the Whitman-Hanson/
Pembroke girls hockey team.
However, the girls were able
to end the week on a high note
by pulling out a 2-2 tie at the
Gallo Rink in Bourne against
Sandwich on Saturday after
losing to the Blue Knights ear-
lier in the season.

“Whenever a team goes

coach Joe Coulter said. “The

with the manner they are com-

Coulter was also happy
with his team’s effort in their

are currently ranked fourth in
the state. Jackie Sullivan got

The team had to resched-

Jim Daley
stepping down
Athletic Director to retire in June
By Dave Palana, Sports Editor
dave@hansonexpress.com
Next year, Jim Daley still
plans to be on the sidelines
as the Whitman-Hanson girls
basketball coach, but someone
else will be occupying the cor-
ner office outside the gym.
Daley, who replaced Bob
Bancroft as Whitman-Han-
son’s athletic director in 2005,
said he will be retiring from
the position at the end of the
school year in June.
Daley said he made his re-
tirement plans official earlier
in the school year once it had
been finalized by the retire-
ment board.
“It’s been a very good ride,
but it’s exhausting when it’s
done right and, to be honest,
I’m tired,” Daley said.
Daley took over the job
as the Panthers moved into
the new high school gymna-
sium and the new Dennis M.
O’Brien field, and the school
has added boys and girls varsi-
ty lacrosse and girls ice hockey
teams under his tenure.
Looking back on his time
on the job, Daley said institut-
ing the athletic academy for
incoming students and switch-
ing Whitman-Hanson from
the Atlantic Coast League to
the Patriot League are two of
the things of which he is most
proud.
“It has been a wonderful
change for us,” Daley said of
the move to the Patriot League.
“It’s been a blessing to have all
our old rivals back, and with
gas prices going up, it’s nice to
be close. The athletic academy
has been great and, of course,
making sure everything was
ready for the 100th anniver-
sary of the Thanksgiving game
this year.”
However, Daley said he
regrets the fact that the ath-
letic fees had to go up during
his time as A.D. due to the
school’s budget constraints in
recent years.
“It really bothers me that
they have gone up quite a bit,”
he said. “We did things like
the Panther Service Program
[to help families with the fees]
and I’m very, very cognizant
of how much it costs and I feel
very, very bad about that.”
Daley said he met with the
applicants for the athletic di-
rector job and will meet again
with his eventual replacement Junior
after Whitman-Hanson prin-
cipal Jeff Szymaniak and the MacKenzie
search committee finalizes
their selection. He added that Hatfield

classroom.
“I don’t want to just re-
tire,” he said. “I really enjoyed
teaching history, and I’d like
to do again in some capacity. I
like to say that I’m not retiring,
I’m redirecting.”
