WARRENSBURG — Persistent rain latelast week fed raging rivers throughout War-ren County, pr ompting widespr ead flood-ing.
States of emergency were declared Thurs-day in the towns of Johnsbur g and ChesterThursday April 8 after the Hudson River re-portedly reached a record level. Flows in theHudson wer e r eported at 10 times normalvolume, or 30,000 cubic feet per second, ac-cording to Warren County Public Works Su-perintendent Jeff Tennyson. He said the riv-er flows on Thursday were twice the normalannual high volume.
The flooding, some of the worst in r ecentdecades, closed a half-dozen low-lyingroads in the region that were underwater, hesaid.
“This is a massive amount of water, muchmore than normal, especially with no icejams,” Tennyson said.
One woman in Pottersville was evacuatedby boat, and a dozen or mor e homes in thetowns of Luzerne and Hadley were flooded,as wer e pr operties in Stony Cr eek, NorthCreek and elsewhere along the Hudson andSchroon Rivers.
In North Creek on Thursday April 28, therail station serving the county railway wasflooded, including a locomotive turntable.Nearby, the Kellogg pr operty with a r ow ofhistoric buildings were also flooded. The ac-cess road to the rail station was closed, as itwas underwater.
Old River Road in Chester near NorthCreek was under four feet of water , cuttingoff a number of homes fr om transportation.Nearby, the water was flowing 15 feet deepat the Rte. 28N bridge.
In Johnsbur g, Thirteenth Lake Road wasclosed after heavy rains washed debris intoculverts, clogging them up and causingroads to wash out in several places, T en-nyson said.
State T rooper Jarr od Bowman of theChester substation pr esided over an evacu-ation by boat of an elderly woman from herhome on Valley Farm Road in Pottersville.
A neighbor of the woman provided a flat-bottomed boat, and he and a r elative of thewoman and Bowman r escued the womanfrom her home — wher e she lived alone —which was surr ounded by rising waters ofthe nearby Schroon River. Bowman had beencalled by the woman’s daughter , a CliftonPark resident. Area rescue squads assisted atthe scene, Bowman said.
State Rte. 8 was closed mid-Thursday of fto all traffic between North Creek and Indi-
an Lake due to water covering both lanes oftraffic. Johnsburg Supervisor Sterling Good-speed said he had never seen this happen inhis lifetime.
Areas of Thousand Acres Golf Course inStony Cr eek and Cr onin’s Golf Course inWarrensburg wer e underwater mid-day onApril 28. Low-lying pr operties near Thou-sand Acres Resort were flooded extensively,and the Stony Creek-Warrensburg Road wasblocked of f mid-morning. Crazy Cr eekCampground near Camer on Road nearThousand Acres was under a foot of water ,Tennyson said.
Some pr operties along Schr oon RiverRoad and East Schroon River Road were alsoflooded, including some homes. An area ofparticular concern was at the northern endof Schr oon River Road near the GlendaleBridge near the hamlet of Pottersville, T en-nyson said.
Although the floodwaters dismayed orworried many, some local rafters wer e ap-parently quite happy. A raft and two kayaksmade the trip from North Creek to The Glenthis afternoon, and witnesses said theycheered as they passed by.
High winds accompanying the rains
brought down tr ees throughout the county,some landing on roadways.
Tennyson said the raging flows wer ethreatening to scour the abutments of sever-al smaller bridges — with shallow founda-tions — and county employees were watch-ing them to monitor their safety.
Bridges most vulnerable to flood damage,he said, wer e the Crane Mountain RoadBridge and the Back to Sodom Road Bridgeand the Claude Straight Bridge, all in Johns-burg, and the Adirondack Road Bridge overMill Brook in Chester.
Tennyson said county workers wer e also
surveying the county railr oad, making sureno culverts were blocking up, so costly trackwashouts could be avoided.
He said highway workers wer e busythroughout the county for the past 24 hoursinspecting roadways and infrastructure.
“At this point we’r e chasing it,” he said.“We’re hoping the rain subsides so we canstart reconstruction,” he said.
By late Thursday afternoon, however, thethreat of further flooding subsided after therain ceased.

Thechurch will continue tomeet on the SonRiseproperty until furthernotice, and does not in-tend to leave the vicini-ty of Pottersville,parishioner Betty Os-olin said Tuesday.
“We would like towelcome you to join usas we serve the Lor dand each other ,” shesaid.

L A K E G E O R G E — F o ryears, the r esort village ofLake Geor ge has hostedsome unusual conventions— like one celebrating Poly-nesian-pop artifacts — andnow a new special-inter estgroup with national pr omi-nence is seeking to call LakeGeorge home.
A world-wide or ganiza-tion of collectors of pressur-ized-gas appliances has cho-sen Lake Geor ge Village asthe site for its 2012 conven-tion.
The International Cole-
man Collectors Club is nowmaking arrangements tohold its 2012 convention atFort William Henry Resortin Lake George from June 28through 30, 2012, and hun-dreds of gas-lamp fans fromacross the globe ar e antici-pated to attend. Club mem-bers attending past interna-tional conventions havecome fr om as far away asGermany, Japan, the Nether-lands, and England. Thegroup has a large contingentin Canada, as well as manyAmish members from Penn-sylvania and Ohio.
In prior years, the group’sconvention has been tradi-tionally held in the midwest
U.S. and Pacific northwest— and this would be thefirst time ever for the north-eastern U.S., club of ficialssaid Monday.
Stephen and Robin Millerof Queensbury, members ofthe gr oup, ar e or ganizingthe thr ee-day event, whichincludes a gas-applianceexpo, dozens of vendors,demonstrations, an auctionof vintage appliances, andseminars on Coleman lamphistory, collecting, and r e-pair.
“We thought that W arrenCounty would be ideal tohost this convention, be-cause a lot of Coleman col-lectors ar e history buf fs,”
Stephen Miller said, notingthe ar ea’s historical attrac-tions including Fort WilliamHenry, the Saratoga battle-grounds and Fort Ticondero-ga.
Last week, Lake Geor gevillage of ficials expr essedenthusiasm about the groupcoming to Lake Geor ge, aswell as curiosity about theirspecialized interest.
The town board tabled thegroup’s request, however, touse Shepar d Park beach fortheir traditional “lamp light-up” event set for the eveningof June 29, in or der to seekmore information about it,and whether it would r e-quire standby fire protectionmeasures.
At Coleman lamp gather-ings, members light updozens or hundreds of theirvintage and collectablelamps simultaneously ,sometimes spelling outwords or setting them in apattern that depicts alantern.
Steve Cullins, a collectorfrom Hannibal, NY , saidthese displays at past con-ventions have been as lar geas a football field. This lastweekend, Cullins hosted adozen or more collectors fora regional meeting, and theyhung dozens of lanterns intrees near his hand-builtcabin in a mini light-upevent.
Stephen Miller said thatLake Geor ge was an appr o-priate site for the nationalColeman convention, con-sidering its historical promi-nence in camping, includingthe first camp-out ever of the
Boy Scouts of America, heldon the shores of Silver Bay.
“Gas lanterns and stoveshave a long history her e —they for ged the way in theAdirondacks, long befor eelectric lighting, particular-ly by wilderness guides,” hesaid.”We hope to get a lot ofpeople to come to our ar ea,enjoy a family vacation inthe Northeast, and hopeful-
ly they’ll come back year af-ter year.”
Cullins said he was look-ing forwar d to r eturning toLake Geor ge, wher e he andhis friends have held a light-up on one of the islands.
“There will be a lot of big-hitters in the collectingworld at the convention,” hesaid.

Health care in America consumesover 18 percent of our gross na-tional product (GDP), yet it is
one of the most fragmented industries inthis country. It still functions as a cottageindustry. This leads to confu-sion, inefficiency and de-creased quality of care. Let’sfollow a hypothetical patientthrough the system to try tounderstand this fragmenta-tion.
The situation: Alice, 45, ismarried and the mother oftwo children, aged 5 and 9.She and her husband eachhave health insurancethrough their jobs. Otherthan to have her two chil-dren, Alice has never been inthe hospital. Her mother isdiabetic; her father, 67, diedlast year of colon cancer; and her sister, 51,has just been diagnosed with breast cancer.“Doc Jones” is their family physician. Alicehas an OB GYN physician she used duringher two pregnancies. The kids go to Dr.Young, a pediatrician.
Because of her sister's breast cancer, Al-ice decides she needs to have a checkupherself. Where to start? At the urging ofher friends, she goes first to her GYN.
-She visits the GYN and asks for a mam-mogram. A limited exam is done.
-She has a mammogram at the House ofMercy Hospital. A sonogram is needed.
-She goes to the “Breast Imaging Center”at Metropolitan Hospital for a sonogram.
-She goes back to the GYN office to dis-cuss the sonogram. She needs a biopsy andblood work.
-She gets lab work done at Health Tech.Her blood work showed elevated sugar.
-She gets a biopsy at the Surgi Center.-She returns to the GYN, who recom-
mends a lumpectomy followed by a shortcourse of chemotherapy. First, she needs to
see someone about the elevatedblood sugar.
-She sees Dr. Sugarman. Hedecides she needs additionaltesting.
-She returns to Dr. Sugarman,and he confirms she has milddiabetes.
-She visits her primary physi-cian, Dr. Jones, who said he cantake care of the diabetes. First,she needs a general checkup,including a colonoscopy.
-When it comes time for thelumpectomy, the GYN wantsher to see Dr. Blood, the oncolo-gist for chemotherapy recom-
mendations. -She sees Dr. Blood. He orders additional
testing and sends her for a consultationwith Dr. Butte for a colonoscopy.
-At the colonoscopy, she is found to havetwo polyps, which are removed.
-She returns to Dr. Blood, and he ex-plains that one of the polyps also was sus-picious, and she is going to need a repeatcolonoscopy in six months. They go aheadwith a course of chemotherapy as a precau-tion for her breast lesion. This meansmonthly visits for injection of thechemotherapy and blood work the weekbefore each injection. This will go on forsix months, and then they will repeat themammogram and sonogram.

Letter to the Editor
David G. Welch, M.D.Thoughts from
Behind the Stethoscope
Adirondack Journal Editorial
Now that Warren County has at-tracted a railroad company tooperate train service — freight
hauling and tourist excursions — along itstracks through the Upper Hudson Valley,it’s time to find a solution for the rail linebetween Lake Placid and Tupper Lake.
The choices? 1) Invest in the railr oad by fixing and
maintaining 34 miles of tracks, extendingthe tourist train from Lake Placid to TupperLake.
2) Tear up the tracks and build a multi-use r ecreational trail fr om Lake Placid toTupper Lake.
3) Do nothing.Right now, nothing is being done. That
would be okay if a compr ehensive study,detailing the pr ojected costs and economicimpacts of — 1) investing in the tracks ver-sus 2) investing in a recreation trail — need-ed to be compiled. But we’re past that stage.A study, commissioned by AdkAction.org,was completed over the winter by CamoinAssociates and Barton & Loguidice.
Now it’s time for the state of New York tomake a decision, as it is the state Depart-ment of T ransportation that owns the railline.
Our opinion: If New York state doesn’tsign a railroad contract with a private com-pany — offering freight hauling and touristexcursions — by next spring, the tracksshould be torn up, and a multi-use r ecre-ational trail should be built fr om LakePlacid to T upper Lake. That would of fermore recreational options for residents andthe traveling public at a better price for theuser.
The Adirondack Scenic Railr oad (ASR)currently operates tourist excursions out ofUtica, Thendara, and between the SaranacLake and Lake Placid train stations on a sea-sonal basis. T rains use the tracks to trans-port r olling stock between Thendara andLake Placid in the spring and fall, yet mostof the line is unused during the warmmonths. In the winter , when the snow isdeep enough, snowmobiles use the corridor,yet the season for good snow coverage isrelatively short. For most of the year , it iswasted space, and taxpayers foot the bill formaintenance.
A group of Tupper Lakers — Next Stop!Tupper Lake — wants the ASR to extend itstourist train service fr om Saranac Lake toTupper Lake. In the Tupper Lake Junction a
few years ago, local volunteers r e-built areplica of the old train station. Tupper Lakeis ready for the train, and it seems the trainis ready for Tupper Lake. But the tracks arenot ready; they need an expensive overhaul.
Let’s weigh the costs and benefits.
Rail lineConstruction cost: $10.6 millionAnnual maintenance: $45,000Net new regional spending: $758,000Permanent jobs created: 13User cost to the public: A round-trip tick-
et from Lake Placid to Saranac Lake current-ly costs $19 per adult, and tickets to TupperLake may be more expensive.
Recreation trail (permanent)Construction cost: $14.6 millionAnnual maintenance: $51,000Net new regional spending: $1.2 millionPermanent jobs created: 20User cost to the public: It would be fr ee
for the public to use.
It’s simply not worth the taxpayer dollarsto renovate and maintain a tourist excursiontrain from Lake Placid to T upper Lake un-less a private rail company — not a not-for-profit group of railfans such as the Adiron-dack Scenic Railr oad — invests in the railline, like Iowa Pacific Holdings, Inc. is do-ing in Warren County.
The newly named Saratoga and NorthCreek Railway will soon re-open to freight,and Iowa Pacific has agr eed to operatetourist excursions fr om North Cr eek, in-cluding ski trains in the winter. The compa-ny will pay for track r epairs up to $50,000,insurance and taxes. And the county will re-ceive at least $82,000 during the first year.
Adirondack Scenic Railroad officials andlocal politicians have been lobbying forfreight service to the T ri-Lakes for severalyears, unsuccessfully, and no contract hasbeen signed. It’s time to move forward. Geta contract now, or tear up the tracks.

LaFoy fundraiser showed that area citizens have heart
To the Adirondack Journal:
A tr emendous show of support fr om theBolton community and surr ounding ar easmade this last weekend’s benefit event forBrittany LaFoy a tr emendous success. Over200 people came out on a beautiful Sundayafternoon and enjoyed a plentiful buf fet ofdelicious food that was donated by theWooden Barrel, Duffy's Tavern, Bella's Deli,the Lakeside Lodge, Cate's, as well as afriend Kayla, and the friends and family ofBrittany
More than 100 gifts wer e raf fled of f tolucky attendants, all having been donatedfrom the hearts of local citizens. Ther e wasa large array of prizes including gift certifi-cates fr om local r estaurants and services,gift baskets jammed the tables, along withbeautifully handcrafted items made locally.
The money raised will go far in offsettingsome of the ongoing medical and rehabilita-tion expenses that Brittany and her familyare now facing as a r esult of her serious in-juries in a 2009 car crash.
The weather was perfect and childr enplayed in the bounce house donated byBounce Around while their parents mingledhappily on the deck. Hans W inter and thestaff at the Wooden Barrel did an exception-al job insuring the comfort of attendees.
All of us on team "Benefit for Brittany"would like to give a special Thank You toChrissy's Fund, to Art and Nicole Baker ofThe Lakeside Lodge, along with all of thegenerous people who donated items, and thewonderful people who came out last Sundayto show their support for Brittany.
The feeling of community was heart-warming. Over 200 people that day felt likeone big happy family! It is impossible tothank everyone individually as many dona-tions were anonymous, but we need you allto know that we are incredibly thankful foryour support!
And to the Adirondack Journal, thanks forall of your help getting this into the publiceye, you sure helped raise our attendance!
Sincerely,“Team Brittany:”

•100 Years Ago – May, 1911•
Shocking murders prompt fearThe headless bodies of two babies, girls
about seven months old and appar entlytwins, wer e found sewed up in a sack andconcealed in the mouth of an abandonedmine at Mineville. The gr uesome discoverywas made by some boys who wer e playingball near the Old Bed pit. They lost their balland when they went hunting for it they cameupon the sack. It was carefully sewed up.
Being curious, the boys opened it andwere horrified to find the poor little bodiesso cruelly mutilated and they hastened withtheir find to the home of Dr. R.T. Saville.
The bodies were in good condition and itis of the opinion that they had not been deadfor mor e than thr ee weeks. It has been im-possible to identify them but str ong suspi-cions prevail. A rigid investigation is beingmade to bring the br utal mur derers to jus-tice.
Small town heroesA number of boys riding their bicycles
near the W arrensburgh Fair grounds the af-ternoon of May 12, 191 1 saw a column ofsmoke rising into the air behind the highfence on the south side of the grounds. Theyinvestigated and found a lively little blazejust getting a start in the edge of the woodson the property of Dr. Cyrus S. Merrill. Theflames were creeping through the pine nee-dles and dry grass covering the ground and—fanned by a stiff breeze —were advancingtoward the W arren County Fair Associa-tion’s property about 30 feet away.
The boys tried to beat the fire out but whenunable to do so, several went for help whilethe others continued to fight the flames. Aforce of firefighters soon gathered and underthe dir ection of Jim Harrison, car etaker ofthe Merrill property, they soon had it undercontrol. Had the distance fr om the fair-grounds fence been less the flames wouldhave undoubtedly swept away every build-ing on the fairgrounds property. It is thoughtthat a car elessly dropped cigarette or cigarstub might have caused the blaze.
(Note: The fairgrounds stood on the prop-erty where there is now a housing develop-ment behind Ashe’s Hotel. Dr. Merrill, an Al-bany eye doctor and his daughter , Grace C.Merrill, spent their summers at what is to-day the Grif fin House Restaurant andGrace’s Pub. Dr. Merrill’s wife, Mary Grif f-ing died in 1905. Father and daughter missedthe fire scare that year because they did notarrive in W arrensburgh with their servantsuntil May 24, 1911.)
Thrown out and ran overAt the spring term of Supr eme Court at
Lake George on May 15, 191 1 before JusticeVan Kirk, the case of Helen Buckley as ad-ministrator of the estate of James Buckleyagainst the Hudson Valley Railroad Compa-ny was begun.
The plaintif f sought to r ecover damagesfor the death of her brother who was ejectedfrom one of the defendant’s cars at a pointbetween Glens Falls and Hudson Falls, fellacross the track and was run over and killedby a railroad car. Justice Van Kirk stated thatthe conductor acted entir ely within the lawby ejecting Buckley from the car and shouldnot be held r esponsible for the man’s later
death.
Baby saved from pounding hoovesA drunken man in a wagon, lurching heav-
ily against his four-year-old baby girl sittingon the seat beside him, powerless to helphimself or her, with the reins dragging on theground and the horse going whither itwould, attracted attention on downtownMain Street, Warrensburgh.
The rig was stopped and the child r e-moved fr om her danger ous position andcared for while the Lake Geor ge man waslaid away until he slept off his drunkenness.
Brand new automobilesTwo of T.J. Smith’s boys have bought new
automobiles. Frank W . Smith has bought afour-passenger Cadillac automobile and ranit to Glens Falls Sunday after only a fewhours’ instr uctions. His br other, Bert J.Smith of Riparius also bought a new ma-chine and was in W arrensburgh on Sundayshowing it of f. (Note: Frank W aters Smithwas proud of his big five-passenger Cadillacand in October of 1914 he was driving it, ac-companied by his wife, Bertha near the War-rensburgh County Home on their way toBolton. A fire started fr om a leaky gas pipeand Frank jumped out and threw dirt on thefire to no avail. The car was a total loss, butwas well insured. In 1926, Frank Smith, a De-mocrat, became supervisor of W arrens-burgh.)
Deaths in the areaHosea Remington, 93, died at Chester-
town, the morning of May 16, 191 1 at the
home of his son-in-law , ex-Sherif f W .W.Bowyer. He was the father of Daniel Reming-ton of W arrensburgh. Burial was at NorthBrant Lake.
Ellis Dunkley, 73, a life-long r esident ofBakers Mills, died May 16, 1911 of paralysis.He is survived by his son, Andrew Dunkleyand four daughters.
Until a few years ago befor e his healthfailed, the deceased lived on a farm near thevillage which he cleared and brought undercultivation in his early manhood. Burial wasin the Bates Cemetery, Johnsburgh.

9/11 remembered from page 1
through his company’s trading office on the84th Floor of the W orld T rade Center ’sSouth Tower in New York City.
“The death of Osama bin Laden does notbring the peace to me that people mightthink it would,” she said Monday . “Mybrother ’s still gone, there’s nothing that willbring him back, and bin Laden, this person-ification of evil, got to live on 10 yearslonger than my brother did.”
For years, Frasco has been grieving theloss of her brother, whom she raised from in-fancy — beginning with changing his dia-pers, helping teach him to talk and walk,and later watching him, with joy and pride,grow into an adult.
“As a Christian, I know I shouldn’t be rev-eling that this guy is dead, but in a way I am,and I know I’ll have to atone for it,” Frascosaid.
Frasco’s son, Brad — who 24 hours afterthe attack dug thr ough the smolderingwreckage at Gr ound Zer o, fr uitlesslysearching for any clues of the uncle who waslike a brother to him — was one of those cel-ebrating Monday, Patricia Frasco said.
“He’s ecstatic — the uncle he was so closeto — his death is now avenged,” she said.
Years after the attack, Brad Frasco wasmoved by a sense of patriotism to serve inthe U.S. military . He was deployed toAfghanistan in 2008 as a member of theArmy National Guar d, Frasco said, r eflect-ing again on bin Laden’s death.
“My son went into harm’s way because ofthe actions of this evil person, so I can’t sayI’m not glad he’s of f the face of the earth,”she said. “And I am glad that our service-men and women have seen this day come.”
She said she’s worried, however, that thekilling of bin Laden might spark r evenge
from other al Qaeda operatives.“I’m concerned now about r etaliation,”
she said. “I’m worried that mor e innocent,good people in this world are going to die.”
She added that she’s trying to maintain asense of perspective — she’s avoided watch-ing the repetitive news reports, because shedoesn’t want to r elive the horr or of herbrother ’s death.
Following the terrorist attacks, she was atGround Zero and shedding tears, watchingrescue workers on their hands and kneesdigging thr ough the r ubble for r emains ofloved ones. W eeks later , she attended asomber memorial cer emony ther e. For along time, her grief was like a living night-mare, she has said.
“I’m now trying not to dwell on it — Idon’t like to have that wound r eopened allthe time,” she said Monday. “It’s not goingto change my life at this point — My son ishome, he’s safe.”
She said, however , that the 1 15-month-long pursuit of bin Laden by the U.S. mili-tary and security for ces makes a powerfulstatement to the world about America’s re-solve and determination to see justice ac-complished.
“It’s been a long time coming,” she said.“It sends a message that Americans don’tgive up.”
Instead of dwelling on her family’s heart-wrenching loss of her brother, Patricia Fras-co spent time on Monday with her son Bradand his wife Laura, who just br ought theirnew baby home from the hospital.
During the visit by his mother , Brad r e-ceived a text message from a friend who ex-pressed the hope that the military strike thatconcluded with bin Laden’s death created asafer world for Brad and Laura’s brand-newbaby girl to live in, Patricia Frasco said.
“The message touched Brad,” she said.“The cycle of life is going on.”

WARRENSBURG — With several key victories now intheir 2011 score book, the Warrensburg High School baseballteam has a surprisingly solid start to their season.
In recent years, they’ve struggled initially and racked upwins later.
Not this year — they’ve started out 3-1 in the AdirondackLeague.
“At the beginning of the season, I wasn’t sure what we hadgoing,” Bur gher Coach Rex Reynolds said T uesday night.“But now it seems we have this explosive offense we can tapinto.”
Monday against per ennial powerhouse Corinth, the firstfive batters in the lineup stepped up to the plate and demon-strated this ability.
Within minutes, after a flurry of hits, all five scor ed runsagainst their storied opponents.
“Right now, the kids are showing their natural talent anddesire to win,” Reynolds added. “And they’re buying whatI’m selling — they’re very coachable.”
One of those hits Monday was a triple by Aaron Seeley, amissile which bounced only twice to strike the left fieldfence. It was the first of two triples for Seeley in the game.
Then in the fourth inning, the Burghers hit another 5 runs.They finished off with a few runs in the 5th, 6th and 7th in-nings. Lucas Nelson hit a triple, and Austin DeMarsh hit atwo-bagger. Jacob Siletti struck out six in the 17-1 win.
Friday’s victory at home against Whitehall may have fu-eled the big win Monday on the Corinth field.
Against the Railroaders, Warrensburg staged a memorable
come-from behind victory that thrilled their fans.The Burghers were down 5-1 in the 5th inning, with the
one run a solo homer by Lucas Nelson.With the game on the line, Reynolds called a quick team
meeting, and ur ged them to step up their of fense and givesupport to their pitchers.
The Burghers did just that, ripping of f another flurry ofhits. Whitehall rebounded to have the edge at 5-4, and therewere two outs in the 6th inning. Mike Curtis was r eady togo to the plate, and Reynolds challenged him.
“Put this team on your back and carry us,” he advised,borrowing a quote from The Natural “I really need you to doit.”
On the first pitch, Curtis slammed a thr ee-run homer.Rounding the bases, he had a broad grin on his face.
The score was now 7-4 favoring the Burghers, who neverlooked back.
Pitcher John Joseph pitched a complete game, tallying 14strikeouts, Reynolds recalled. Joseph and Nelson both were3 for 4 at bat in the 9-5 turnaround victory.
“Joseph really shut down some serious hitters,” the coachsaid.
With the crushing homer and some impressive statistics ascatcher, Mike Curtis was named Player of the Week by War-rensburg Car Care.
Two days earlier the Burghers played Bolton.In this showdown, Warrensburg set a new school r ecord,
hitting 8 doubles. Half of them wer e shots in the gap, theother were over the fence in Bolton’s cramped left field.
The Warrensburg athletes showed their explosive offensewith no less than 9 r uns in the first inning, scoring in eachstanza of the game but two.
The game ended up 24-5, a testimony to the Burgher play-ers’ long hours this season in the weight room.
Their offense against Bolton was matched by savvy pitch-ing. Starter Tyler Williams tallied 10 strike outs, and he wasrelieved by Justin Baird, who had five in two innings.
“It was a good win,” Reynolds said. “W e’re gelling as ateam. The players work har d,” he said, noting they spendextra time in practice.
“They’re a great bunch,” he added. “Our goal is to be com-petitive every night no matter who’s on the mound or whowe’re facing. Our kids know every night could be a dogfight,but they always have a solid opportunity to win.”

Fast forward one year. Alice has completed the chemother-
apy for her breast lesion, and she hascontinued treatment for her diabetesand had a second colonoscopy. At thatcolonoscopy, another suspiciouspolyp was removed and she is nowback in the office of Dr. Butte to dis-cuss her third colonoscopy. He feelsthat the third polyp is abnormalenough that he wants to do a partialcolon re-section and schedules her forthat surgery.
Before that surgery, which is to bedone at Mega Medical Center Hospi-tal, she needs several more tests tolook for possible metastases.
What we have is a woman whothought she was in good health andwound up with visit to half a dozen
providers, three hospitals two imag-ing centers and three labs. Does thissound familiar to anyone?
Fragmentation issues here andproblems are many but very real inour system.
The first issue is that there was noone place where her data was kept.Every time she saw a new provider,hospital or facility, she went throughthe whole registration process againand again.
Second, only Dr. Blood took a thor-ough history and realized the familyhistory of diabetes and cancer.
Third, there was poor or limitedcommunication between theproviders.
The lack of a common database formedical information on patients likeAlice is one of the biggest failings inU.S. health care. It is made worse be-cause providers collectively do not do
a good job of sharing patient informa-tion.
Over the years, there have beenmany attempts to place the burden ofcoordination of care on the primarycare physician. What happens is theybecome a recipient of information butdo not do a good job of sharing thatinformation with all of the other con-sultants. Too often, as in this scenario,Dr. Jones did not have nor share infor-mation with all the other providers inher care.
For the patient, the frustration isthat every new provider becomes aneed to repeat the whole story allover again and often results in repeat-ed and unnecessary testing. It canalso result in missing important cluesas in her case of family disease.

(Interviews conducted May 2 by Adirondack Journal Editor Thom Randall)
Q U E E N S B U R Y — F o ryears, W arren County Su-pervisors have complained— or suffered public embar-rassment — about the ex-pensive train platforms theyhad constr ucted primarilywith grant funding for thecounty railway.
Two platforms, one atHadley and the other inThurman had cost $2.5 mil-lion to build — an expensethat anger ed and puzzledthe public, considering thesewere not complete train sta-tions as people had envi-sioned nearly a decade agofor the tourist railway.
But last week, with acounty railway to be r un-ning trains as soon as thissummer under an ambitiousnew operator, the county su-pervisors endorsed a plan toerect str uctures, howevermodest, at these two stops.
Passengers traveling therail line may soon have atleast a r est room and a r oofto keep rain of f their headswhen they visit the twostopovers in Hadley andThurman.
At the suggestion of LakeLuzerne Supervisor GeneMerlino, the county en-dorsed a plan to spend up to$47,626 in leftover federalgrant funds to put up wallsand r oofs, and at least onerest room at each of the twoplatforms.
Merlino suggested thatvolunteer labor to build thestructures could be recruited
from the communitiesserved by the railway , andthe grant money could bestretched to bankr oll mor eupgrades besides buildingmaterials, like lighting andsignage.
County Department ofPublic W orks CommitteeChairman Dan Belden, Su-pervisor of Hague, saidspending the money to up-grade the passenger experi-ence would be a good use ofmoney that would otherwisehave to be handed back tothe government.
“We fought to get thefunds, and I hate to turn itback in,” he said.
The pr oposed str uctures,however, fall far short ofplans drafted five years or soago, which called for ar chi-tect-designed train stationswith historic detailing, com-plete with lobbies, luggagerooms, and concessionbooths.
The str uctures endorsedApril 25 may merely be fourwalls made out of cheappressboard siding — andthey could be upgraded inthe years to come, with fullstations as once envisioned,supervisors said.
But Merlino said last weekthat the interim str ucturescould be as extensive as thevolunteers wanted, as longas they build it.
Thurman Supervisor Eve-lyn Russell said the con-struction of the ThurmanStation would be up to a lo-cal citizens committee.
Thurman Station Commit-tee president Perky Grangersaid Tuesday, May 3 she was
pleased with the countyvote, and the idea of draftingplans and r ecruiting volun-teers would be addr essedsoon by her group.
She said her committeenot only consider ed Thur-man Station to serve as a sitefor community events, buttheir early dr eams of a his-torically-detailed enclosedstation had been put on holdin r ecent years, during anera that county supervisorspursued budget cuts.
“We always thought thatsomething historic would beappropriate,” she said.Meanwhile, her gr oup hasbeen seeking to locate the ca-boose now sitting in Ripar-ius and outfitted as a r e-freshment stand, to be r elo-cated to Thurman Station.Any development of Thur-man Station would benefitWarrensburg and StonyCreek as well as thurman,she said.
“We want the station ben-efit the local economies,”she said.
Meanwhile, county lead-ers are moving forward withthe new train operators’ am-bitious plans. Last week, thecounty endorsed an inter-municipal agr eement withthe Town of Corinth regard-ing the railway. The contractcovers how r evenue, ex-penses and r esponsibilitywill be shared. Yet to be rat-ified by Corinth, the agr ee-ment calls for the county tohandle most administrativeduties, plus coor dinate andoversee r epairs and infra-structure inspection as nec-essary.
The supervisors also vot-ed to raise an emergency re-pair r eserve fund — to bebankrolled over time fr omreceipts from railway opera-tions — fr om $500,000 to $1million. The move was in re-sponse to warnings fr ompublic Works Superintend-ent Jef f T ennyson that therailway bridges along theline have an aggregate valueof $31 million, and costly re-pairs would be likely overtime.
In r ecent years criticizedas a money-losing, doomedoperation, a new pendingagreement for the railwaythrough rural Warren Coun-ty promises an array of newpassenger services and ex-cursions, as well as fr eighttraffic — together envi-sioned to jumpstart theeconomy in the lowerAdirondacks.
Several weeks ago, countyleaders approved a contractwith Iowa Pacific Holdingsthat guarantees local tax-payers an income of $81,958to $190,000 — six per cent ofthe rail line’s gross revenues— depending on the successof the rail service.
That revenue is to be splitbetween the town of Corinthand Warren County after thereserve fund is bankr olledand specific expenses ar epaid.
The operator also pledgesto operate at least 100 round-trip passenger trains fr omMay to October, and a mini-mum of 30 ski trains and atleast 50 dining excursions.
The “r ecovery” of specialstipends to various town employ-ees, however, is the one suggestionthe town is not likely to followthrough on.
The town board voted to retroac-tively af firm those “T itle Pay”stipends and legitimize all suchpayments to employees — fr om afew hundred dollars up to $15,0000annually — in a vote taken lastweek by the board at their monthlymeeting.
All the boar d members voted infavor, except for Fran Heinrich, whoabstained. She said Monday she haddone so because she had been anemployee of the town for manyyears. She said, however, she wasn’tsure whether she had actually r e-ceived such extra stipends duringher 17 years working in the townplanning office. She retired from thetown in 2003, and started serving onthe town board in January 2010.
“I didn’t know how it all workedwith Title Pay,” she said. “I only sawwhat I was getting in my check.”
She said she was not aware of re-viewing any Title Pay allocations toother employees, either, during hertenure on the board.
“I don't know, I haven’t thoughtabout it,” she said. “If I did, it’s,skipping my mind.“
McCoy said that about 20 yearsago, former town supervisor LouTessier created a line in the budget
called “Title Pay” which over theyears included specific extraamounts above base pay andlongevity stipends for certain em-ployees, based on merit, education-al certification, or extra work de-tails.
In past years, some of thesestipends wer e not formally ap-proved by the town boar d, and attimes, certain boar d members maynot have been awar e of them, Mc-Coy said.
The public might not have beenfully aware of the stipends, either.
The title pay amounts wer e notlisted in pay ledgers published forthe public and appr oved in annualorganizational meetings, McCoysaid. They were only listed in an ag-gregate sum under a special budgetcode, town officials said.
McCoy said these extra stipends,over the most recent five years thatthe auditors wer e focusing on, ac-counted for $234,000 — and perhapsfar more if the auditors had taken all20 or mor e years and examined allthe town’s employees payr ollrecords, rather than just 20 employ-ees records.
“These wer e not indiscriminateraises,” McCoy said. “T itle Pay”was awarded to those who deservedit based on performance, extratraining, or working above and be-yond expectations.”
Former Lake George Town Super-visor Lou Tessier defended his prac-tice of awarding the extra stipends.
He said that Title Pay was award-
ed based on extra work performedor additional r esponsibilities. hesaid it was a way to assure that newemployees would not start out atthe higher pay levels earned bythose employees who retired.
“Our employees wer e paid well,and they provided good services tothe town’s r esidents,” Tessier said.“They got paid what they de-served.”
He said that the state should havevoiced their objections to T itle Payyears ago in three audits performedover 26 years. He said an auditorhired by the town over many yearshad no objection to the practice ei-ther.
Tessier said that town boar dmembers over the years were awareof the practice of awar ding specialstipends, although they wer en’tvoted on by the board, or detailed inpublished pay documents.
“The board was involved in thesedecisions,” he said.
Former T own Boar d memberGeorge McGowan disagr eed. Heserved on the board for 12 years, upthrough 2008.
“I never never hear d of Title Pay— absolutely not,” he said thisweek. “Board members didn’t knowwhat they wer e voting on duringthe budget process.”
He said that Tessier only present-ed the board with “endless pages”of budget listings, identified onlywith codes.
Since his tenure on the board, Mc-Gowan has, as a citizen, repeatedly
urged the board to fully identify thebudget line items, rather than usingcode numbers.
He said he assumed that the em-ployees were only receiving the paythat was published in the annualcompensation statements distrib-uted annually to the public, whichdidn’t include extra stipends.
“I asked the bookkeeper forcopies of employees’ W -2 state-ments, but I couldn’t get them.” hesaid.
Tessier defended his practices,and said ther e was no attempt tohide the extra pay.
“There wer e public hearings onthe budgets, but few people evershowed any interest in the budget,”he said. “They could have come into the town hall at any time andasked the bookkeeper for the fig-ures.”
Board member Scott W ood, whoassumed his seat in January 2008,said he was awar e only of some ofthe stipends, primarily raises, anduntil the audit, he wasn’t aware thetown’s compensation practiceswere against state policies.
Wood agr eed with McGowanabout how the budgetary code num-bers and various code numberscould obscure employees’ total pay.
“The budget was very confusingin the past,” W ood said. “I won-dered why it wasn’t made real sim-ple.”
Wood credited McCoy for leadingan ef fort to get payr oll practicesstraightened out, and praised his
work towar ds getting budgets un-derstandable.
“Frank’s done a very good job,”he said. “W e’ve enacted a lot ofchanges since Louie (T essier) r e-tired.”
Bill Reynolds of the state Comp-troller ’s Of fice said he couldn’tcomment on the extra stipends — orhow they’d potentially be r ecov-ered, until after the audit becomespublic.
“This is not something I can com-ment on,” he said. “However, I willsay ther e wer e some issues withpayroll control.”
Other issues cited by the audit in-clude:
• Resolving deficits in operatingfund balances for suf ficient cashflow.
• Adopting realistic budget esti-mates for expenses and revenue andfund balances.
• Properly recording and payingback inter-fund loans.
• Publicly and officially authoriz-ing salary incr eases, separationpayments, and making sure they arein accor d with town policies anddistributed equitably among em-ployees.
Town Supervisor McCoy said allthese concerns have been ad-dressed, with the town implement-ing new payr oll controls —and thetown board has assured the auditorsof these specific changes in pr oce-dure.
ELIZABETHTOWN — Su-pervisors in Essex Countyhave their fingers cr ossed,hoping that President BarackObama will declar e the r e-gion a disaster area.
“I have had thr ee conver-sations with Congr essmanBill Owens, and he is r eallypushing for us,” CountyBoard of Supervisors Chair-man Randy Douglas said atthe May 2 boar d meeting.“This does have a gr eat shotto get a federal declaration.The pr eliminary numbersshow that there could be $10to $12 million in damages inEssex County.”
Douglas said that he hasstayed in contact with Gov .Andrew Cuomo since he vis-ited the town of Moriah April29.
“We gave the governor apreliminary package at thattime,” Douglas said. “Oursituation is on their radar ,and their communicationwith me was, ‘For get about
the red tape and we will dowhatever we can to helpthese communities out.’”
Douglas said that the gov-ernor and federal representa-tives would continue to mon-itor the situation. If the coun-ty r eaches the $25 millionplateau in terms of damages,then the ar ea could be de-clared a federal emer gencyzone.
Several supervisors talkedabout the damages they have
seen in their communities.“We ar e losing a r oad at
Port Douglas,” ChesterfieldSupervisor Gerald Morr owsaid. “There are things in ourcommunity that are now justshowing up, so I am sure thatthe number needed for fund-ing is going to rise.”
“We ar e still looking atnumbers, but we ar e ap-proaching $500,000 in dam-ages,” Westport SupervisorDaniel Connell said. “We are
looking at $200,000 to$400,000 for just one road.”
“We have farms that havelost their bridges and this isa prime season for them,”Keene Supervisor W illiamFerebee said. “They can’tmove.”
“We have been going allover with the roads that havebeen washed out andclosed,” Moriah SupervisorThomas Scozzafava said.“There is going to be mor ecoming to the surface as faras damages as time goes by.”
“We ar e keeping track ofeverything and hopefully ,we can get some help,”Schroon Supervisor CathyMoses said.
“We do have some damagein the ar ea that is r elated towhat is going on in the vil-lage of Saranac Lake,” St. Ar-mand Supervisor JoyceMorency said. “Ther e hasbeen a br each at our sewerplant that brought a declara-tion fr om the state Depart-ment of Health.”
Currently, the county hasauthorized the use of up to$2.5 million fr om unappr o-priated fund balance to dealwith repairs and reconstruc-tion work, which it is hope-ful to r epay through federalfunding.
While several supervisorsbrought up areas where pri-vate property has been dam-aged, county Emer gencyServices Dir ector DonJaquish said that the infra-structure needed to be ad-dressed first in or der to ob-tain federal funding.
“It’s har d to tell privatehomeowners that we can’tdo anything right now , butthat is the way that it is at themoment,” Jaquish said.“What each homeownerneeds to do is take pictur esand keep track of all the ex-penses and losses that theyhave.”
Jaquish also gave countyleaders places to look for fur-ther damages.
“Be sur e to look at yourparks and your beaches,”Jaquish said.

Town of Moriah Supervisor Tom Scozzafava points out the damage to the Broad Street Bridge April 29 to Gov.Andrew Cuomo and other officials, including Sen. Betty Little and Essex County Board of Supervisors Chair-man Randy Douglas (far right). Afterward, Cuomo held a press conference declaring a state of emergency inEssex County due to the extensive road damage caused by flooding. The bridge, located on County Route 4between the hamlet of Moriah and the village of Port Henry on Lake Champlain — the busiest r oad in thecounty — collapsed April 27 after a flash flood.
BOLTON LANDING — One day last week a raucouscheer erupted from the band practice room in Bolton Cen-tral School.
Band director Stan Walkanowski prompted the uproar,as he announced to his marching band they’d have an op-portunity few young musicians would ever experience intheir lifetime.
The Bolton High School Marching Band has been invit-ed to perform the “Star Spangled Banner” at the begin-ning of a New York Mets baseball game Thursday May 5against the San Francisco Giants at Citi Field in Queens.
The 36-member band is scheduled to play the patriot-ic anthem just prior to the first pitch at some point be-tween 12:50 p.m. and 1:07 p.m., Walkanowski said.
“When I broke the news to the band members, they lit-erally jumped out of their chairs and went crazy,” he said.“And when the news settled in, several kids still didn’tbelieve it.”
Walkanowski said he is r etiring in June after 20 yearsas a music teacher and band dir ector at Bolton Central,and he had been telling the band members he was goingto arrange a special trip for them during his final year.
Walkanowski’s r epeated calls to the Mets of ficeprompted the gig that will be giving the students theirfive minutes of fame as they play the Star Spangled Ban-ner, in formal garb, right in front of the Mets team dugout.
He was prompted by a friend who made the suggestionafter hearing that Bolton Superintendent of Schools RayCiccarelli, guidance counselor Steve Showers, andWalkanowski were all ardent Mets fans.
Walkanowski then googled “high school band,”“Mets,” and “national anthem.” The search revealed thename of a band in Michigan that had made a similar per-formance for the Mets. He then phoned the band directorand got some tips on how to lobby for such a tr easuredprivilege.
Despite an initial cool response from the Mets, Walka-nowski persisted. W alkanowski sent the Mets manage-ment a CD of the band playing the national anthem inpractice, and a photo of the gr oup performing in theSouth Glens Falls Holiday Parade. Mets officials respond-ed that they liked the CD and the looks of the band, andthey offered the gig.
While they’ll be in the national spotlight May 5, theband has performed the national anthem on a more localpublic setting — at the Glens Falls Civic Center before anAdirondack Phantoms hockey game.
Walkanowski said anticipating the Phantoms’ gameperformance put him on edge.
“I was nervous, but their performance for that gamewas the best I ever heard,” he said.
The Mets appearance includes images of the band be-ing displayed on video scoreboards at the field.
Walkanowski said it is unusual for the national anthemperformance to be part of the televised segment, but heis now lobbying SportsChannel NY to extend their cov-erage to beam Bolton’s appearance statewide.
He said performing in such a famed venue in a nation-al spotlight will not only prompt lifetime memories, butbe character-building, particularly boosting confidence.
