Joseph Cardella, of 250 N. Main St., says he will vote May 17 to override Proposition 2 'k for the schools, “but reluctantly.” He stops for a moment on Main Street to talk about the issue with a reporter.

election May 17. Both overrides pertain to the schools.

Mr. Cardella, who has lived in Andover since 1941, told the Townsman, “I’m going to vote yes, but reluctantly. I’m 91 and don’t make much money.”

Paul Bursey, of 49 School St., didn’t attend Town Meeting last week, but he will vote no on both override questions.

“We waste enough money as it is,” he said. “We’re taxed to death. If she (pointing to his daughter, Alicia Rose Bursey) was going into public school I probably would, but she probably won’t be.”

Ricky goes to school - at homeBy Christina Bracero

Two poodles, about eight rabbits, a sister, a brother, a mother, a father and a soon-to-be-acquired horse. Those are the residents of the Robidoux household, who live at 21 Brundrett Ave.

The 13-year-old sister, Kara, is an eighth-

grader at West Middle School. Like most middle-school students, she finds homework stressful, but she is doing well. Her 11-year-old brother, Ricky, is in school, too. But Ricky is in school at home.

Ricky Robidoux has what his mother

Working on the overrides of Prop. 2%By Neil Fater

y law, the School Committee and other school officials can do little to

influence the upcoming vote on whether Andover will override Proposition 2S to pay for the $40.5 million school buildings project. But school officials hold a trump card in their legally-tied hands.

Interestingly, this figurative card is known as ACE.

ACE, the Andover Community for Education, is a group of Andover residents in support of a limited-time debt-exclusion override to fund both parts of the school buildings project.

According to Debra Silber- stein, co-chairwoman of the Bancroft Overcrowding Task Force, the group is planning a door-to-door and telephone campaign of registered voters

The day was just about perfect for runners, cool but sunny with a west wind behind them,

for the 26.2-mile trot from the start in Hopkinton to the finish line at Copley Square in Boston.

And though a bit cool for standing still, it was a good day for watching the race as well. Just ask former runner and marathon participant Buzz Stapczynski, Andover’s town

The Robidoux family in the kitchen, the learning center: from left, Richard, Ricky and Lynn.

Going to school at home(Continued from page 1)

calls “a slight learning disability," ADD, attention deficit disorder. That means he has difficulty concentrating on his classwork. He is easily distracted by conversations and children around him.

His inability to block out other children's activities made it difficult for him to grasp the school material. This frustrated Ricky and he felt inferior to other children, said his mother. Because of this, Ricky had difficulty making friends.

So Ricky’s parents, Richard and Lynn Robidoux, believing the problem would only get worse if Ricky remained in the public schools, decided to teach him at home.

Ricky thought it was a great idea.

"I was having so much trouble in school with kids whispering. Now it's so much quieter. There's no noise. Just the dogs when Dad comes home,” says Ricky.

So, for the past eight months, Ricky has been attending class at home, with the kitchen table as his desk and his house as his classroom.

He is taught about the human body, using a kit. Since he has trouble writing, he uses workbooks to answer reading comprehension questions instead of writing book reports. He is taught about the care of animals.

“We have books on every animal we own or have owned. We have had turtles, fish, hamsters, dogs, rabbits. He’s read about them all,” says Mrs. Robidoux.

Mrs. Robidoux is Ricky’s teacher. She was working in the family hardware store until Ricky and his family thought it best to teach him at home. She has a high school diploma, so feels comfortable teaching Ricky middle-school material.

When setting up the curriculum plan, Mrs. Robidoux received helped from Cathy

Costello, a learning specialist at West Elementary School.

“She got me a spelling book, social studies book and an outline of subjects that had to be covered," says Mrs. Robidoux.

One day a week, Ricky tackles mechanical projects with his father, Richard Robidoux.

"1 try to teach him how to follow instructions, to solve problems,” says Mr. Robidoux. “If he can solve problems on his own, it’s better than me always being there for him. To take things apart and put them back together again, you must pay attention. He's getting better with his patience. He’s not a quitter anymore.”

Ricky is also learning computer skills (word processing, typing and Logo Ryder), and the history and geography of the US.

Ricky no longer feels inadequate around his peers, his parents say. Although he is not involved in any town sports, he plays golf, has sleep overs, and goes to the movies. His parents plan to have him attend a high school, whether private or public, by' the ninth grade. Although Ricky is doing well, his parents are concerned with the lack of support for home- schoolers from the Andover school system.

The school system “prefers for kids to be in school, but you have to look out for your own child," says Mrs. Robidoux.

Richard Neil, assistant superintendent of the Andover school system, says, “The decision for home schooling is the parents’. I don’t think it’s good or bad. Obviously a lot of kids go to the schools.”

Mrs. Robidoux receives support from Quality Home Education Development (QHED), a group consisting of parents from such towns as Wakefield, Topsfield and Melrose, who are dedicated to providing quality home schooling. QHED organizes field

Group to train trauma intervention people

The Trauma Intervention Program (TIP) is seeking citizen volunteers for its crisis intervention program. Volunteers must participate in a 55-hour training program to learn how to help citizens in distress as a result of having been victims of a crime or other traumatic event. Volunteers are called to the scene by a police officer or firefighter to assist citizens who are despondent, victims of burglary and robbery, family members of suicide or sudden death, family disputes, disoriented older persons and other crisis situat ions.

"The period of time following a tragic event can bi' the most critical hours in a person's life," said .Jane Thompson, director of the program.

Training will begin Thursday, May 12. Preregistration is required. To register, write to Trauma Intervention Programs, 37 Appaloosa Drive, Methuen, Mass. 01844 or call 685-9931.

Due to the fact that TIP operates in the towns of Methuen, Lawrence, Andover and North Andover, only volunteers who live in these towns can be accepted into the program.

How home schooling worksThe procedure for obtaining

approval for home schooling is as follows:

The family wishing to pursue home schooling must first present a request for approval to the superintendent of the public schools. The proposal includes a proposed curriculum, the number of hours dedicated to each proposed subject and the number of days per year the student will "attend class.”

The family must also submit the name of the person planning to teach the student, along with

that person’s qualifications.The names of the instruction

material must be submitted, as well as a sample lesson plan.

The family must provide progress reports to the principal of the school the student would attend if he were still in the school system.

The family must also agree to allow the student to take any school- wide tests. If any of these requirements are not agreed to, the family is denied permission to educate the child at home.

Educating Ricky at home(Continued from page 2)

trips, curriculum plans, and material swaps for 60 to 70 families in the Boston area.

“It would be much better for (Ricky) if there were other Andover parents who are home schooling. There aren’t enough

parents to form a group," says Mrs. Robidoux.

There are seven other families in Andover who are teaching children at home, according to Mr. Neil.

Septic system soil testing begins

Everett Penney, director of Public Health, has announced that soil testing for installation of septic systems has begun. The Board of Health requires two soil tests before it will issue a septic system permit and building permit.

The soil tests measure the maximum high groundwater elevation (deep hole tests) and the porosity of soil where subsurface sewage disposal (septic) systems would be installed, Mr. Penney said.

Deep hole tests are conducted during March and April only.

Percolation tests may be run at any time, except during December, January, February and March.

Call the health department for a appointments for the test.

"We’ve been witnessing a larger number than usual of these tests this year due to the economic rebound,” Mr. Penney said. “Many individuals and contractors wait too long to book these tests and find themselves unable to get building permits because they have no soil test results.”

The test results are valid for two years only and must be repeated after that.

Voters don't see need for outside management auditFinance Committee members intrigued by idea, seek specificsBy Neil Fater

Can Andover be run more efficiently? That is the question that Dennis Teves, of 8 Mohawk Road, posed at last week’s Town Meeting.

By defeating Mr. Teves’ private article, seeking $100,000 for an outside management audit, residents effectively gave him his answer.

“Andover has not been around for 350 years because it has been mismanaged,” said Barry Finegold, 11 Lavender Hill Lane.

However Don Robb, Finance Committee chairman, said that the committee was intrigued by the proposal to hire an outside auditor. Yet, in its current state, the proposal was too vague to approve, he said.

Mr. Teves amended his article on the Town Meeting floor to earmark the money for a management audit of the municipal maintenance and public works departments. But the article gave no further specifics of how the funds would be allocated.

“Let’s not vote it down because we don’t know how to implement it,” let’s talk about how to do so, said Joseph Araujo, of 135 North St. "Again, nobody is questioning the ability of town officials. It just makes sense.”

“This audit would ensure that we’re getting value for the dollars we are spending,” said Dino Dia- mondis, of 11 Rutgers Road. “We should make sure we are spending our dollars wisely."

The outside management audit proposal was defeated after the Board of Selectmen and the Finance Committee recommended disapproval.

Mr. Teves and members of the Finance Committee seemed to agree on the concept of a man-

“I'm trying to do something, deep in my heart, I feel a lot of people agree with.Yon mean to tell me that tve have efficiencyand good management? All yon have to do is look around.” — Dennis Teves

Dennis Teves, speaking at

Town Meeting.

agement audit, but were unable to come together on a proposal.

"Members of the Finance Committee were very interested in this concept,” said Joanne Marden, committee member. “But (Mr. Teves) wouldn’t even talk to us about what he was looking for or make any effort to work with us.”

Ms. Marden said the committee has scheduled a special meeting to discuss Mr. Teves’ articles (he had two others on the warrant), but that at these meetings Mr. Teves said he would only comment at Town Meeting.

Ms. Marden said it would have been

difficult for the committee to approve the proposal anyway because $100,000 could be spent on many other items for the town.

Mr. Teves said he made few remarks to the Finance Committee because, based on his past experience with town officials and more recent conversations with members of the Finance Committee, he believed he had no chance of whining their approval.

"I called Ms. Marden, seeking her support on this article and she told me she didn’t see how they could support spending $100,000,” said Mr. Teves.

Gerald Mulligan, FinCom member,

said he did not see the need for such a proposal "unless you have a suspicion of things being run inefficiently or inappropriately (in a particular department).

“There is nothing that I have seen that has led me to believe (the town) needs outside," assistance, said Mr. Mulligan. Mr. Mulligan is a member of the subcommittee responsible for reviewing the Municipal Maintenance Department. He said the problems in that department may be taken care of once the computer system is up and running properly.

Mr. Teves said he had hoped the Finance Committee would amend his article at Town Meeting to create a proposal committee members believed would increase efficiency.

“I’m trying to do something, deep in my heart, I feel a lot of people agree with,” he said. “You mean to tell me that we have efficiency and good management? All you have to do is look around. I could go on and on (with examples, but) it’s their (the Fin- Corn’s) job. They’re supposed to watch out for the tax payers, not me.

"I work 50 to 60 hours a week. I just don’t have the time” to create an article acceptable to the Finance Committee, he said.

Finance Committee members are appointed by the town moderator, and

receive no salary for their work.

Mr. Teves said he did not speak at length on the Town Meeting floor because he sensed people were not interested in a great deal of discussion.

“It was three

nights in a row. I wanted to get out of there. Everyone wanted to get out of there,” he said. "I just wanted to express my point. This was not something that was thought about overnight."

Vandals dump load of sewage in BallardvaleBy Don Staruk

The Board of Health and police responded to 20 Dale St. in Ballardvale Sunday morning after vandals opened a valve on a sewage tanker truck and at least 1,000 gallons of raw sewage spilled onto the ground.

It appeared as though none of the sewage reached the nearby Shawsheen River, according to Dan Tremblay, town health agent who responded to the scene. A berm around the tanker contained the spill on the property of the former Eastern Products Co., according to police.

The spill was reported at 9:05 Sunday morning. A lock had been cut off the valve and the valve was opened, allowing the spill. The tanker can hold up to 10,000 gallons of sewage, according to police. There were conflicting reports as to how much sewage was in the tanker before the spill and how much

remained in the truck, if any, after the spill. Mr. Tremblay’s report said “thousands of gallons" were initially reported spilled, but Everett Penney, health director, said 1,000 gallons were spilled.

The spill was mostly cleaned up by Monday. Mr. Tremblay notified the state Department of Environmental Protection and asked that the DEP’s Water Pollution Control unit check the Shawsheen for any signs of contamination.

The 40-foot tanker is owned by Andover Septic Pumpers, at 12 Dale St., which leases the storage yard at Eastern Products from Steven Feinberg, property owner.

Mr. Penney said the spill was not a big problem and that the owner of Andover Septic Pumpers, Eddie Boyle, has permission to store the sewage in the tanker on that site.

Andover Septic has smaller trucks, which

provide septic service to homes, and the company then consolidates the loads into the larger tanker. The tanker is then supposed to be dumped at the Greater Lawrence Sanitary Dis

trict or another out-of-town treatment facility, according to Mr. Penney.

Police are investigating the incident.

School Choice is bock on the board's agendaBy Neil Fatcr

A public forum will be held Tuesday, April 26, on an issue the School Committee unanimously rejected months ago.

The School Committee unanimously voted to withdraw from the School Choice Program of the 1993 state Education Reform Act at the end of the committee’s Nov. 16, 1993 meeting. However, recent accusations of improper procedure have caused the item to be placed back on the School Committee’s agenda.

"Evidently at some point in time following our prior discussion of it, someone questioned whether that past discussion had been held at a public meeting,” said Susan Dalton, who is now committee secretary.

By law, the issue of school choice must be discussed at a public hearing and the public must receive appropriate notice. A public hearing is scheduled for 8:40 p.m., Tuesday, April 26, during the group's regular School Committee meeting.

"It’s really just to close the loop (and ensure) it is discussed with the proper notice,” said Ms. Dalton. “I think it’s a thin issue because we discussed it at a duly (posted) meeting.”

School Choice allows students from one community to attend school in another.

Ms. Dalton said she does not expect to change her vote, citing economic and space problems. Ms. Dalton also said that it is tough for a student from another community to take a full role in the after-school activities of another because of the transportation problems.

"The financial aspects are not advantageous to the receiving community," she said.

Since their Nov. 16 vote, the School Committee membership has changed, with Lloyd

Willey replacing Susan Jenkins. However, Mr. Willey does not seem to favor school choice for Andover either.

26. Chestnut Street, Andover • 475^8593

By Alix DriscollThe interior furnishings of the

Emerald Cottage, at 20 Post Office Ave., evoke the relaxed sophistication of an English cottage, European country house or dacha at the end of the 19th century.

To commemorate the turning of the seasons, Kim Boucher, the proprietor, displays several ceramic bunnies on a gate-legged table set for a spring luncheon. Dried rosebuds form a wreath around the rabbits’ necks. A blown- glass pitcher for margaritas or lemonade sits next to cactus-stemmed glasses.

Since she was 12, Ms. Boucher has crafted ceramics and given them as gifts. She says she learned the art from her mother.

Ms. Boucher says she missed contact with the public when she was a banker for 10 years at the I ,o well Five Cents Savings Bank. Although she considered banking and setting up her shop at the same time, she decided she couldn’t handle both. So, in the middle of last month, the Pepperill resident went into business. She chose the name because her birthstone is an emerald.

Flowered pillows are strewn over a venerable woven-lattice, a rocker from an Adirondack mountain house is painted robin’s egg blue. Sand dollars tied with ribbons and dried flowers hang in a nook. Ceramic watermelon bowls await a fruitful bounty. A two- foot ivory-colored lapin, clothed in a peach French bow, will be shipped to Virginia in celebration of spring.

For a spring garden, Ms. Boucher offers ceramic turtles with a rough granite finish that resembles stone,

Pike students tour Spain, FranceTwelve students and two

teachers from Pike School recently returned from an eight- day trip to Spain and France. The trip took place during the school's spring vacation.

The excursion was under the auspices of the American Council for International Studies. Two days in Spain were scheduled in Madrid for sightseeing and an exposure to the restaurants, stores and flavor of the city. Students traveled to Toledo and visited El Escorial and the Valley of the Fallen. After an overnight train ride, the group spent two days in Paris experiencing the sights and the Musee D’Orsay. Their itinerary included a trip to Versailles. The seventh- and eighth-grade students of French

and Spanish recorded their impressions of the week in their journals and sketchbooks.

French teacher Patty Smith and Spanish teacher Carmen Lonero accompanied students Jillian Booty, Tiffany Horne, Kim Johnson, Lisa Kletjian, Deborah Siller, Emily Simons, Shalu Umpathy and Patti Waters, all of Andover, Alexis Mallen, Morgen Peck and Lydia Shovan, all of North Andover, and Melina Otero from Lawrence.

International travel is an option for many students in the upper grades at Pike. In tho past five years the school has sponsored two supervised trips to Scotland and three to France and/or Spain. There is an annual trip to Quebec each spring.

When the paramedics arrived with Eric in our emergency department, we began to evaluate a very frightened young boy and a very upset and anxious mother. After a thorough

exam and x-rays, we were relieved to find that he only had

a broken wrist."

DOCTOR"A nurse talked to Eric initially to calm him and let him know' what we were doing. The challenge of meeting the emotional needs of

Eric and his Mother was as important as the care of his injuries. Even though Eric's broken wrist required the services of an orthopedist to set it and cast it, he was able to leave that day.

As Eric left, he complained about still being able to write his book

Exploration program plans informational meeting for students in grades 4-12

Boys and girls from the Andover area entering grades 4-12

and their parents are invited to a special Exploration informational meeting Sunday, April 24, at Wellesley College, from 2-3 p.m. in the Pendleton East building, Room 105.

Among the program’s participants this summer will be Andover students Michelle Vitale, Julia Henderson and Erika Gulezian at the Senior Program; and Jacob Berman, Deborah Siller and

Amy Henderson at the Intermediate Program.

Students and parents will have a chance to meet the program's directors, view a video of the summer and learn about Exploration’s three distinct programs: Senior Program for students entering grades 10- 12, Intermediate Program for students entering grades 7-9, and Junior Program for students entering grades 4-6. Each program offers two three-week sessions.

Both day and resi-

dential programs will be discussed. Transportation is available from most Greater Boston and Worcester communities for students in Exploration’s day program and day students are invited to stay overnight three times a week to weekend field trips and special evening

events on campus. The Junior Pro

gram is new this summer and has been created to offer an enrichment opportunity not met by traditional summer camps, while creating an environment that provides the structure, guidance and nurturing that students 8-11

years old need to meet their fullest potentials. To date, students from 16 states - representing every region of the country - have enrolled.

Students from across the country and around the world will write plays, discuss medical ethics, design

model cities, argue legal cases, launch new business ventures and make new friends.

The Junior Program is held on the campus of St. Mark’s School in Southbor- ough.

The Senior and Intermediate programs are held on the campus of

Wellesley College in Wellesley.

Another information meeting will be held at Wellesley College on May 14, and one at St. Mark’s School on May 15.

For more information, call (617) 329- 4488 or write Exploration, 124 High Rock Lane, West- wood, Mass. 02090.

Video Club at Andover High produces video for Mass Electric

Taping sports, school events and assemblies are standard fare for the TCI Video Club at

Andover High School. However, last year, three students were offered the opportunity to do something different - create a video for a professional situation.

Massachusetts Electric approached club adviser Karen L. Hayden of TCI Cablevision with the need to explain to ordinary people how electricity works. Ms. Hayden negotiated the terms between the two groups and selected the students who created the video.

Wendy Darling, then a senior, wrote the script and edited the final nine-minute tape. Mark O’Donnell, also a senior last year, created the opening sequence and shot additional footage. Ed Moore III, another senior, created animated computer graphics and served as co-host.

The tape, entitled “What Does Massachusetts Electric Do For You?” will premier on local Channel 12 on Tuesday, April 26, at 6 p.m., with a repeat on Thursday, April

Ms. Darling, daughter of Richard and Hannah Darling, is a first-year student at UMass Amherst and serves as public relations coordinator for the campus television station.

Mr. O’Donnell, son of Miles

and Marcia O’Donnell, is a first- year student at the University of Vermont at Montpelier studying biology.

Mr. Moore, also a first-year student and the son of Edward and Margaret Moore, studies communications at Hofstra University on Long Island, N.Y.

Termites?

Pausing in production of the video are Kristin Clancy of Massachusetts Electric and Stephen Janczura of TCI Cablevision in the front row; Mark O’Donnell, Ed Moore III and Wendy Darling are in the back

closely with Massachusetts Electric employees Kristin Clancy, who narrated parts of the video, and Michael Hailey, who taped some of the scenes used in it. All of the work was supervised by Ms. Hayden and Stephen Janczura of TCI Cablevision of Andover.

The final tape, edited at TCI Cablevision’s facility at

Andover High School, integrates footage shot by Massachusetts Electric employees, news teams and other individuals, graphics, music and narration. In exchange for the video, Massachusetts Electric donated $800 to the Video Club.

"The students who produced this tape leave behind a tangible legacy to the underclassmen," said Ms. Hayden. “They've set a high

By Virginia Lopez Begg AndoverHistorical Society

Those who have always dreamed of seeing their families or

their businesses go down in history now have that chance. To help celebrate Andover’s 350th birthday, the Andover Historical Society will publish Andover: A Century of

Change, 1896-1996, a history of the last 100 years in this old New England town. The book will also include a limited number of full-page business and family profiles. The fee for each profile will help defray the cost of the book, and more than half of the available profiles have aiready been reserved.

The updated Andover history, now being written by Eleanor Motley Richardson, will contain two parts. The first part will feature 224 pages of text and photographs. The story of a century of major changes will lie told in both words and pictures. From horse-and-buggy days to the space age, Andover has reflected the emergence of modern America. The decline of the family farm, co-education, superhighways and suburbanization are developments that have helped to create the town we see today.

The second part of the book will include business and family profiles. TheAndover Historical Society will provide ample assistance to anyone interested in a profile. The staff can offer suggestions on the kind of material that will best describe the contributions of a business or family to the town of Andover. Dates and anecdotes, photos and future plans will all be part of the process. The profile

will then be created by staff members and submitted for proofreading.

Sponsored by the Andover Townsman

and The Eagle-Tri

bune, the book will be published in October 1995, in time for

the kickoff of the year-long celebration of Andover’s 350th birthday. Copies may now be reserved at a special prepublication price. All proceeds from the book will help support the Historical Society’s

efforts to collect, preserve, exhibit and interpret objects and documents of local historical significance. The funds will also underwrite the society’s numerous educational projects in the community.

Nominate an outstanding womanTribute to Women in Industry (TWIN)1 is

sponsored by the Greater Lawrence YWCA. Outstanding women in Merrimack Valley business, industry and professions will be honored at the Tribute to Women in Industry awards luncheon Wednesday, May 18, at Andover Country Club.

The business and professional community has been asked to select female colleagues to be recognized by the Greater Lawrence YWCA at its 11th annual TWIN luncheon.

Honorees are women who have made outstanding contributions in their careers, demonstrated their capabilities by advancing in their field or organization and actively served as role models for others in their fields.

Honorary award recognition forms mailed to businesses and industries should be returned by tomorrow, Friday, April 22. Additional forms may be obtained by contacting the YWCA at 38 I/iwrence St., or calling 687-0331.

A committee representing a cross section of the professional community has been named to select one outstanding honoree to receive the 1994 TWIN award.

All honorees will receive a recognition award. Twenty women were honored last year with Luz Santana receiving the Tribute to Women Award. The former project coordinator for the Lawrence Youth Commission is a parent advocate and community organizer.

Earth Week begins Sunday; celebration fakes place May 1

Earth Week runs from Sunday, April 24, through Sunday, May 1. If you have seen the map at Memorial Hall

Library recently, you will know that there are still areas that have yet to be “adopted.”

Activities throughout the week are mainly practical: cleaning up trash and litter from streets, neighborhoods and parks. Trash bags are available from the Department of Community Services through Friday, April 29. Collected trash should be taken to dumpsters located at all public schools, the public works yard on Lewis Street, Recreation Park, Spring Grove Cemetery and the Water Treatment Plant on Route 133. Temporary dumpster locations include Pomps Pond, the Chandler Road ballfield, Penguin Park, St. Robert Bellarmine Church and the junction of Salem Street and Route 125. If trash is too awkward to transport, volunteers

should leave it by the side of the road and call 475-3580 for pickup.

As noted in last week’s News in Brief (Townsman, April 14, page 3) artist Joan Ellis will run a hands-on children's art project Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to noon and 2 to 4 p.m. The result will be a huge dinosaur keeping watch over Old Town Hall’s plaza.

The Earth Week celebration will take place Sunday, May 1, from 2 to 4 p.m. at Old Town Hall. The celebration will include live music and environmentally-oriented exhibits presented by groups such as Andover Trails, the Bicycle Committee and Andover students.

A GM Geo that has been retrofitted by Solectria Corp, of Wilmington to run on electricity instead of gas will be on display in front of Old Town Hall.

to bring out people supportive of the May 17 override vote.

"It’s a group of parents who are concerned about the needs of the schools,” said Madhu Sridhar, president of the South Elementary PTO. “Any concerned parent who wants to see this thing going is a part of this group.”

"We're just going to try to reach as many groups in town and people in town" as possible, said Ron Hill, treasurer of ACE. “We’d like to be able to turn out a pretty big vote on May 17."

A two-part plebiscite is planned for that date. The first ballot question will determine if the town will override Proposition 2 X to pay for $38.5 million in renovations and additions to Andover High School, and South and Sanborn schools. A second ballot question concerns approval of $2 million for what school officials call an equitable technology update to the remaining school buildings.

Although school officials mounted an impressive campaign to win approval for the total $40.5 million at Town Meeting, they must now take a step back.

"We’re supposed to minimize our involvement, by law, as a committee," said Hill Huston, committee member. “Elected and apj)ointed officials are not supposed to be doing any influencing of the community’s mind."

According to the 1978 Anderson v.

City of Boston case, the state Supreme Court concluded that a “municipality has no authority to appropriate funds for the purpose of taking action to influence the result of a (ballot question) proposed to be submitted to the people at a state election."

The court decision also stated that telephones, photocopying machines, paper and other supplies paid for by the taxpayers could not be used to influence the upcoming vote.

“But we don't have to give up our rights as citizens individually,” said Mr. Huston. As individuals, but not as a collective board, School Committee members will continue to try to inform and persuade residents regarding the buildings project, said committee members.

Still, the bulk of the effort will fall to the members of ACE.

“Hopefiilly, our task will be easier, but there are still a lot of people with a lack of information,” said Ms. Sridhar.“I think our job is essentially to make sure that we inform the people of the real numbers."

PTO members conducted an unofficial poll concerning the school buildings project at the March 28 Town Election. According to Ms. Sridhar, the results showed that most people were in favor of the project, but that there were a number of people who were misinformed. School officials used this information in preparing for the Town Meeting presentation.

“Some of you have honest misconceptions, but they are misconceptions none-the-less, about what we are planning to do at the High School,” said

Dick Muller, School Committee chairman, at Town Meeting. “Let me reassure you, there is no pool, no elevated track, and the hill is not coming down.”

Now, ACE members hope to use the same information in their outreach.

“In many, many cases, as soon as people get the facts straight and look at it objectively they come around,” said Mr. Hill.

Andover Community for Education is currently in the process of gathering volunteers, according to Ms. Sridhar.

ACE has divided the town into precincts and appointed precinct heads. A strategy session is planned for Monday night, April 25. Mr. Hill said he hopes to have several hundred people involved in the outreach operation, drawing several thousand to the polls

John Sullivan, a former School Committee member, was one of many who spoke at Town Meeting last week in favor of Article 20.

Mike Morris, outgoing president of the Andover Chamber of Commerce, tells Town Meeting last week that the Chamber endorses the $40.5 million schools project article. That’s former School Committee candidate, Bill Josephson, behind Mr. Morris, waiting to speak in favor of the article.

May 17."If every one of them reaches 20 or

30 people - you do the math,” said Mr. Hill. “We hope that it will be a full town-wide effort. It’s not just a kids- related issue."

Postcards containing basic information about the project may be mailed out to residents, funded by the "modest sum" group members have been collecting, said Mr. Hill.

“All the reasons point to the fact that we should act now rather than postponing the decision,” said Ms. Sridhar. “It’s the most obvious thing to do.”

If the May 17 override is approved, school officials plan to submit plans to the state by the June 1 deadline, assuring the $38.5 million project will receive 60 percent state reimburse-

tion Tuesday, May 17, when registered voters will be asked to approve a 20-year debt-exclusion override of Proposition 2 X as a means of funding the school buildings project. There will be two items on the ballot. A simple majority is needed to pass each item.

The first ballot question will ask if voters will approve an override to fund $38.5 million in renovations and additions to Andover High School, South and Sanborn schools. If the vote is approved and plans are submitted to the state by June 1, Andover will receive 60 percent state reimbursement for both the principal cost and interest.

The second ballot question concerns approving an override to fund a $2 million technology update to the remaining schools. Andover will be entirely responsible for payment of this $2 million segment.

The last day to register to vote in this special election is Wednesday, April 27, when the town clerk’s office will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.

A special registration will also be held at the town clerk’s office for the same purpose on Saturday, April 23, from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m.

ment of both the principal and interest. State officials have informed members of the School Building Committee that after June 1, a considerably smaller percentage of the interest will be reimbursed.

“I’m very optimistic,” said Ms. Sridhar. “But the thing is, every single person must go and vote. Complacency will play a factor.”

The second ballot question concerns approving an override to ftmd a $2 million technology update to the remaining schools. Andover will be entirely responsible for payment of this $2 million segment.

It is the second override that concerns Rusty Dunbar. Ms. Dunbar, of 8 Alden Road, says she will vote for the override because it makes excellent financial sense. It is important for

keeping property values high, she says.

And she has words of praise for the School Building Committee.

However, Ms.Dunbar is “very concerned" about the technology override. She said she is in favor of hard wiring the schools for the new technology, but has questions about bonding for 20 years to purchase hardware that will be obsolete well before the end of that period.

The Rev. Thomas Goldthwaite, of 376 S. Main St., said he hadn’t made up his mind yet.

“I have to think about my congregation, the older people who would consider it a burden, and yet, I have a daughter in fourth grade in Bancroft School. I have interests both ways,” said Rev. Goldthwaite.

Sean Gresh, of 82 Elm St., on the other hand, is sure he will vote for the overrides.

"It is absolutely essential that we pass this," he said. “I’m going to do everything on my part to persuade others in town to vote for the override. I am very concerned. There are pockets in our community and in America (which have) the ‘cake-and-eat-it-too’ problem. The infrastructure has been neglected. We have to do it. The people who put together the proposal have

been very conservative and reasonable.”

Rolande Werner, of 700 Brookside Drive, said she needs more information, but is in favor of the overrides.

“I do know wehave a real number Rolandecrunch at the High WernerSchool,” said Ms.Werner. "We definitely need more space. It is my understanding the High School was made for three classes (sophomores, juniors and seniors) and didn’t allow for a fourth class.”

Ms. Werner has a suggestion for long-term planning regarding future school buildings.

"I disagree with making small elementary schools larger. I was hoping Andover would build a new school,” she said.

manager, who was offering support and taking pictures of local runners on the big downhill at about 15.5 miles in Newton Lower Falls, just before the beginning of the up-hill section of the course. Among those Mr. Stapczynski photographed was Andover attorney Reginald Marden, 46, of 10 Orchard St., who finished the race in 3:46:09 (hours: minutes: seconds).

Sam Nork, 30, of 12 Cameron Road, was the top Andover finisher in 2:43:19, good enough for 226th place in his age group (male open) and 304 overall.

“That was good for me. That was my best time by about 20 seconds,” Mr. Nork said Wednesday. “It was an ideal day to run.”

He bettered the 2:43:39 he ran in San Francisco last July to qualify for Boston. It was his fastest of 10 marathons, including six previous Bostons. Mr. Nork and his wife, Janet, just moved to Andover in December.

Lisa Doucett, 38, of 137 N. Main St., was the top female finisher from Andover in 3:37:26, which was 471 in her age group (female open).

Jonathan Stableford, 49, of Highland Road and an English teacher at Phillips Academy, was the second fastest Andover finisher with a time of 2:49:18, good enough for 90th place among male masters and 529th overall.

Christine Robertsen, 57, of Stevens Street and also a PA employee, was the top Andover female master with her 4:02:51. She was 61st in her age group (female veterans). Ms. Robertsen was ecstatic after both requalifying for next year’s race and, with the handicap for the slow start, breaking the four-hour barrier she had been after for years.

"I qualified and I ended up with a 4:02:51,” Ms. Robertsen said.

She needed 4:05 to qualify in her age

Lisa Doucett, 38, was the top female finisher from Andover.

group for next year. But her start was delayed by the crowds at the beginning and she took more than six minutes to cross the starting line, so her time was actually 3:57:52, she said. The Boston Athletic Association allows runners about five minutes leeway because of the start conditions.

“I’m ecstatic. I really trained hard this year. I was just so happy yesterday. I couldn't believe it.”

“Miles 23 and 24 were really tough,” she said. She had a hard time running down the hill into Cleveland Circle and then along the flats to Coolidge Corner. But she wouldn’t stop.

“I never walked. I ran the whole thing.”

A friend from her running club ran the last 10 miles with her and that really helped in the last couple miles, she said.

"I was just so happy. I never thought I’d finally qualify for Boston.”

Sharon Yu, 41, of 9 Shipman Road, finished her eighth marathon and fourth Boston, but wasn’t thrilled with her time of 3:59:11.

“I wanted under 3:50,” she said Tuesday.

“I felt great until after I got over the hills,” then her legs died on the downhill.

"My thighs were just trashed,” she said.

She qualified with a 3:45 at Lowell last November. Her best marathon ever was a 3:39 in Lowell in 1991. She needed a 3:50 to requalify for next year.

Bob Ragonese, 36, of 9 Enfield Drive, ran his first marathon ever Monday and finished in 3:55, about 10 minutes slower than what he was hoping for.

He was doing fine until about mile 22, where he started getting cramps.

"At the end it was really tough,” Mr. Ragonese said.

He has been running 15 or 16 years and runs 6:30 miles in shorter races, but this was a new experience for him. He was recovering Tuesday and feeling better than he did at the end of the race Monday.

“Definitely an unforgettable experience," Mr. Ragonese said.

David Chechik, 30, an AHS graduate now living in Salem, Mass., finished the race in 3:01:42, according to his mother, Paula Chechik, of 31 Far- rwood Drive.

"He called me about 7:30 last night and he said he felt wonderful,” Ms. Chechik said Tuesday. “He was very pleased.”

In just his second marathon ever, Bill Martin, 29, of Westford, a 1983 graduate of AHS and an employee at Hewlett-Packard in West Andover, accomplished Monday his goal and what many marathoners dream of - breaking three hours in Boston. He finished in 2:58:21.

His first marathon was last fall in Rhode Island where he finished 3:00:42.

He was a sprinter on the AHS track team and at college.

“In graduate school I got into training for biathlons - running and biking.”

“Heartbreak Hill was a little tough,” but he felt better after the hills, Mr. Martin said.

His last few miles wavered between 6:45s and 7:20s. After the race he was

dehydrated and went into the medical tent, but he did not require intravenous fluids.

Mr. Martin said he’s not sure if he needs to run 26 miles again now that lie's accomplished what he set out to do.

“I don't know if I’m going to run it again.”

Tom Jurgen, 28, and his sister, Diane Jurgen, 27, both from Andover and now living in Newton, finished the race in 4:45 and 4:40 respectively.

It was her fifth Boston and his second. Diane’s time was five minutes faster than her time last year. Tom was shooting for 4:15 this year.

John Green, 35, of Stoneybrook Cir- S

cle, completed the course in 3:08:38, beating the time he needed to requalify for next year, (3:15).

“I got back to the big dance for next year,” Mr. Green said Tuesday.

He was very impressed with the course, which he said was much tougher than Chicago where he quali-, fied. The difl'erence is "like night and day”compared to Chicago, where the challenge is the winds off Iâke Michi- K gan.

“I’ll take running into a stiff wind over Heartbreak Hill any day,” Mr. > Green said. "My thighs were completely numb and I still had five miles to go.”

He fell short of matching his qualify-| big time for this year, which was a 2:59 he ran at Chicago Oct. 31. Mr. Green fell on ice about a month ago and pulled some back muscles, so he lost three weeks of training and wasn’t sure what to expect on race day.

His thighs were “just murder” on Tuesday, but only another runner I would understand that it was a good I

Teaching civics to kids

While their parents were getting ready for and participating in Town Meeting during the last months and weeks, Andover public school students in grades 4-12 were preparing for and participating in their own Town Meeting. And like the adults, the kids worked hard, debated with intelligence and learned a great deal.

For the first-ever Youth Town Meeting, more than 120 students researched and prepared a warrant of 10 articles.

in many cases, they proved to be thoughtful voters, too. They approved the $40.5 million schools project article that the adults passed, too; and they turned down an article that proposed students design their own lunch menus.

Their adult mentors, including Dick Neal, assistant superintendent of schools who designed the Youth Town Meeting, had the good sense not to meddle too much in the students’ affairs. Kids took on the roles of selectmen, town manager, and so on, so they could get a feeling for running a town.

Like their adult counterparts, the kids gathered at the microphone, waiting patiently to speak on each issue. They made excellent points.

Some kids said Andover needs a teen center; others said a center would make students unable to do their homework and only attract a small group of students; they said the lower the student-teacher ratio, the better the education; they said they would learn about health and nutrition if they had a hand in designing school menus; they asked that the town bus route be expanded; and with no opposition, they agreed to restrict smoking in Andover, with AHS freshman Steve Milmoe suggesting, “Ex-communication should be (smokers’) punishment.”

We thank the adult cheerleaders who worked for Youth Town Meeting: Superintendent Mark McQuillan, Mr. Neal and Selectman Larry Larsen.

But most of all, we thank the students for their hard work and enthusiasm, for once again speaking their minds, and for showing us they have much to offer this community.


Andover High School freshman Steve Milmoe, 15, spoke about several articles on the Youth Town Meeting warrant last week, including supporting the no-smoking article.

She was a survivor on Schindler's listBy Perry Colmore

When Holocaust survivor Rena Finder finished describing her experiences of being saved from the gas chambers during World War II by Oscar Schindler, the packed audience at Phillips Academy continued to applaud forquite some time.Perhaps we feel guilty that she had to go through her ordeal? We are relieved that we didn’t, and wonder if and how we could endure what she did. _ _ .Maybe we could Perry Colmore

soften her nightmares if we clap,if we stand up for her. Does she understand we are in awe of her courage and strength?

She says survivors who are able, speak about the Holocaust. Those of us who can, I believe, have an obligation to write when survivors speak.

“I was 10 with the war broke out almost overnight,” began Ms. Finder, a short woman with dark hair, pleasant looking, well-dressed in a pink silk blouse and print jacket, wearing pearl earrings and necklace, “I

stopped being a little girl and became an enemy of the state."

In Krakow, Poland, where she was born in 1929, all the Jews were placed in a ghetto when the war began. Those under age 12 were evacuated and told they were being sent to a farm. She avoided being separated from her family because she was tall and her family falsified her birth certificate to say she was 12.

The Jews were required to wear a wide armband with a blue star of David on it. They weren’t allowed to walk on the sidewalk, not allowed to go to school, not allowed to pray, their businesses were taken away, bank accounts taken away, their synagogues were burned.

“They started to load Jews on trucks,” said Ms. Finder. “Families were separated. Dogs were trained to attack people. People begged to go with their families. They would be shot on the spot."

When the war began, there were 50,000 Jews in Krakow, said Ms. Finder. A short time later, there were 30,000 left and they were all in a ghetto in the middle of town, all living in an area that was two streets long and three avenues wide.

Mother, father and young Rena Finder left their home with one suitcase and a very small pushcart with

21

some pots and pans and some covers. While they walked through the streets of Krakow toward the ghetto, people were yelling and screaming. "They were happy to see us go.”

"The ghetto was extremely crowded.” Three families would live in an apartment room that measured 10- feet by 12-feet.

In Krakow “they built workshops. People knew how to make hats, shoes. We were all working. They felt if they were all working, making money for the Germans, that they would let us live.”

Jews would leave the ghetto every day and work and come back at night. Oscar Schindler, a German industrialist whose story is told in Steven Spielberg’s film Schindler’s

List, “came in to make money to become rich. He knew nothing about the business (of making pots and pans) and so he became friends with us.”

Ms. Finder called Mr. Schindler “very handsome, a very kind man.” She said he was always bribing the Germans with silk shirts, for example, gambling to make money so he could pay for workers - Jews - whom he would insist he needed to make the factory work.

Still, “We never had enough food,

LettersAlderbrook issue livesEditor, Townsman:

It is truly sad when the safety officer of a town reports that a road is a serious safety hazard and advises the town that it should be paved but the selectmen and the townspeople vote not to pave the road. This is what happened with Article 22 regarding the paving of Alderbrook Road. Why do we have a safety officer if we aren’t going to listen to his recommendations?

Mr. Heitz said at the Town Meeting that my husband and I have “no interest” in the road because our frontage is on Countryside Way. The fact is that Paul and I own a portion of this section of Alderbrook Road and could be held liable if someone were injured on our property. 1 feel this means we do have an interest in this. My husband was hoping to speak at Town Meeting, but the vote was called before all the speakers got their chance to speak. This leaves me wondering if Town Meeting was the place for this type of decision. Why hadn’t the town sat down with the four owners and worked out a reasonable and safe compromise?

We have been told by the town that we do own the road and we are liable for the road, but we cannot close it because it is a road. A former owner who had access to the type of equipment needed to maintain a road like this has moved, leaving the road completely unmaintained and in the worst shape it has been in since we moved (Continued on page 38)

water, electricity.”"The Nazis came all the time to take

people out, take them away. People tried to hide ... We were in danger of the SS, the Germans and also our neighbors, who were Polish. They were totally indifferent to us. They never asked where did my neighbor go. Nobody ... Not only were the murderers responsible, but so were the bystanders. Dogs attacked innocent people. But nobody saw it.”

Ms. Finder said she rarely saw the face of a German because she didn’t want to look one in the eye. “If he didn’t see me, he wouldn’t kill me.”

Her father was arrested on New Year’s Eve. Her grandparents were taken away. An only child, Ms. Finder made it through the war with her mother. But the rest of the family, which included many aunts, uncles and cousins, perished, except for one cousin.

Later taken to concentration camp, Ms. Finder said at that site a loud speaker was “always yelling and screaming, dogs were barking.”

To a totally quiet audience at PA’s Tang Theater, including adults and children crammed into the seats and also sitting on the floor, Ms. Finder said, “On March 13, 1941 in Krakow, 1,800 elderly, young children and little babies” were killed.

here 10 years ago. Because the road can’t be closed, I feel the town should periodically fill the potholes and clean all the dirt and sand that accumulates on the comer of Countryside Way and Alderbrook Road (another safety hazard because of the dirt road).

It was unfortunate at the Town Meeting that accusations that Vickie Rauseo works for the town were not addressed by Mr. Stapczynski, our town manager, who was at the meeting. Vickie was a member of the Finance Committee about seven years ago. Since leaving this position, she has not been involved with town politics, the town hall or any town-related business. She has been busy raising her five children. Vickie is one of the nicest, kindest and most generous people I know. She has been very involved with her children’s schools and is an asset to our community. I felt it was disgraceful that Mr. Heitz insinuated that Vickie was pulling strings to get the road paved.

I was hoping that this hazardous section of road was finally going to be addressed, but unfortunately the selectmen in this town let us all down by not taking a firm stand for the safety of our town’s citizens.

(Thank you Mr. Downs for being the only selectmen to vote yes on Article 22.)

Sandy Parziale 1 Countryside Way

Letters are due. Monday at 5.

In camp, there was a huge dog named Rolf, “and we had to address him as ‘Herr Roll'.’

“Every morning we were exposed to public hangings, public beatings.”

Unable to understand the Germans’ reasoning, Ms. Finder said, “Germany was a very cultured country. Its citizens were highly educated, and yet all the German people, sons, brothers, husbands, they became cold-blooded murderers. They killed without mercy. They never talked about us as people.”

When the Germans talked about the Jews, said Ms. Finder, they were called “pieces.” How many pieces could they ship in a boxcar, or fit in the gas chamber in one day, for instance.

“We were not pieces; for Oscar Schindler, we were people.”

When they worked for Oscar Schindler, the Jews had more food, more clothes. The SS guards were not allowed to come into the factory, she said, and they were not allowed in the barracks.

“Every morning he would walk through the factory and wink. He would light a cigarette and leave it by a man who he knew smoked.”

One day the factory foreman accused then 12-year-old Rena Finder of sabotage when the machine she was working on broke down.

“Someone went to get Oscar Schindler. He came strolling down and

Alderbrook accidentEditor, Townsman:

I, unfortunately, was not able to make it to the Town Meeting on Tuesday night because of a serious family illness. However, after reading in today’s Townsman (April 14) that Joanne Zelubowski told the voters at Town Meeting not to listen to the "scare tactics’ of those who say the lack of paving is more dangerous, I have to say that I can tell you firsthand that the dirt section of Alderbrook Road is very dangerous.

Four years ago, my 10-year-old daughter was riding her bike down the dirt section of Alderbrook Road. She hit a pothole, went flying over the handlebars, broke her two permanent front teeth and had multiple facial cuts, bruises and lacerations. She was so hurt and upset that she couldn’t con tinue home. A neighbor brought her home crying and covered with blood. We had to rush her to the hospital and to a dentist immediately.

Some people say the dirt road shouldn’t Ik? paved, however, in my situation the unpaved road caused extreme emotional trauma and disfigurement to my daughter.

Not only was this a traumatic accident for my daughter, but a costly accident, as well. I'm still paying for the dental work she will have to have done for the rest of her life.

I understand that the Planning Board approved this article, the safety

asked, ‘What happened?’ The foreman said I sabotaged the machine.”

Mr. Schindler stood up for Ms. Finder. “After that he remembered me,” she said with a smile, "and he would wink at me, and it was just wonderful.”

At one time, Rena Finder was loaded into a train with her mother and hundreds of other Jews. “We couldn't sit down, we had to stand; we were more loaded in than in the movie. Women were crying. There was no air, no water, no bathroom facilities. Nobody paid attention to us.”

They had arrived at Auschwitz, where the stench of burning bodies was unbelievable, she said. “Ashes were falling on you. There was such smoke that our eyes watered. We ran toward the bath houses. They sent some people to the right, some to the left.

“My mother and I would pinch our cheeks. We wanted to look healthy. We were told to strip. They shaved us head to toe. We were pushed into a room that was very dark. A light went on. Water came down. I looked around. I didn’t recognize anyone, we were so totally de humanized, so totally traumatized. It felt like I lost my soul, I lost my self.

“The water stopped. We went into another room. There were no towels. There were women with whips. There were piles of clothes, piles of shoes, wooden boots, too big, too small, dress

officer reported that the road is definitely a safety hazard and recommend it be paved, and still the selectmen didn't vote to make this area safe for its residents.

What will it take before something is done about this dangerous road?

Stop Willey bashing

Editor, Townsman:

Having just completed a vigorous and highly competitive issues-oriented School Committee race against four top-quality individuals, I have personally been dismayed at the “pounding" one Lloyd Willey - has received in various Townsman letters.

I did not know Lloyd prior to the campaign. I quickly discovered that he’s a sincere, serious, hard-working1 and competitive individual whose goal is to succeeds. Having had the opportunity to observe first-hand and speak individually with Lloyd on numerous occasions both during and subsequent to the campaign,I am convinced that there isn’t anybody who cares more about our school system than Lloyd Willey.

Lloyd will attempt to deliver to Andover an optimal quality school system while being fiscally responsible. His vision is for a challenging curricu-

es too big, too small. 1 took a chiffon dress. It was winter. We stepped outside. I surely thought we must have died already and we were in hell.”

Ms. Finder said when the war was over and Oscar Schindler was leaving she cried because she was so frightened his Jews wouldn’t be OK without him, even though she had heard Winston Churchill’s broadcast saying the Germans had surrendered. The part in the movie where the men had some gold removed from their teeth so the Jews could make a ring for Mr. Schindler was true, she said.

Oscar Schindler has died, but on May 19, Ms. Finder will visit Mrs. Schindler, she said.

Someone from the audience asked Ms. Finder if she bears ill will toward the Germans today. “1 cannot blame the young Germans for their parents and grandparents,” she answered.

Still answering the audience, she said she has not been in Poland since 1945, but she is thinking of going, to take her grandchildren.

Virginia Tyler, director of religious education at Christ Church, asked Ms. Finder if she sees anything today that is like the Holocaust. Ms. Finder said what is happening today in Bosnia is “absolutely what happened to us and here we are, sitting and hundreds and hundreds of people are dying, which Is what happened to U9.”

I’ve also found that Lloyd can be blunt at times, thereby leaving himself open to being misconstrued or openly disagreed with. 1 believe that political disagreement is positive for our community and should be aired. But my hope is that the people of Andover recognize that, in my opinion, they’ve elected an exceptionally bright, dedicated, concerned and decent-individual to our School Committee in Lloyd Willey.

Evils in society

Editor, Townsman:The room upstairs at Memorial Hall

Library was filled to capacity with over 100 people. Those who attended on April 13 got to see and hear Dan Eeder speak about several evils in society, one among them being legal abortion, which has left 30 million dead in our pountry since 1973.

Mr. Feder tied abortion with other ills, such as sexual promiscuity, sexual perversions, illegal drug use and the breakup of families to the influence of secular humanism. Secular humanism is replacing traditional belief in God and the morals of the Judaic-Christian heritage with “feel good” individualism and relativism. It was an enlightening speech and the audience gave Mr. Feder a standing ovation.

His speech was taped and will air on Andover’s cable Channel 11 in the near future and I highly recommend it to

•anyone who’s wondering what's causing so many of society’s problems.

Black labrador was smoking a cigarette; no scooper in sight

Editor, Townsman:Casually I peered through my win

dow and was appalled to see what appeared to be a black Lab wearing shades (obviously to avoid identification) with a cigarette hanging from its mouth, devoid of a pooper-scooper, relieving itself on my lawn.

My sense of civic duty overcame the need for caution. I raced down my driveway in an attempt to apprehend the perpetrator and make a citizen’s .arrest. I chased the creature up the road, through-the woods without a

thought for my own safety. 1 shlossed through the mud, stumbled over the rocks, ripped my pantyhose, bramble- scratched my face and finally, buffing and puffing, 1 ashamedly admitted defeat.

I am proud to say, however, I made plaster casts of the paw prints, salvaged the cigarette butt and secured a sample of the feces. I feel confident that examination of the paw prints and a DNA performed on the feces and saliva should enable the local authorities to capture this fiend and see that appropriate punishment is metered out.

Save the notice board at Elm Green

Editor, Townsman:Every time I see the plans for “Elm

Green" and its apologia, I am ever further saddened as I read and am reminded of the further loss Andover is to suffer by the planned unmarked entombment of Andover’s notice board.

The small bit of park is intended, according to the literature accompanying the model, to remind us of “all who served and who serve." And so must die, to achieve this purpose, the notice board which has, at least since I returned to Andover in 1981, served to notify the town of the many who every day celebrate life.

I have placed notices on that board and I have spoken to the people who were pleased to see those notices. If our purpose is to remember those who gave that we might live, let it not take yet more from the living - there are many ways to include an attractive bulletin board in the plans for Elm Green, thus giving living notice that we continue to thrive. Please.

Parents were rude to those who opposed schools project article

Editor, Townsman:Monday night’s (April 11) Town

Meeting was a revelation. For the most part I endorse the School Committee’s Article 20, but was disheartened to find myself surrounded by parents who displayed utter discourtesy and disregard for anyone who stood to comment against or question the article.

If we are to continue to have town meeting as a forum at which citizens are allowed to speak freely, we should respect this right. When the vote was taken, there was much adverse comment about those who stood opposed. Perhaps we do need a secret ballot after all if standing for what you believe in is an earmark for ridicule.

I hope the parents who were so

quick to pass judgment on others will support our schools not only with their dollars but by keeping their children in the system through graduation, by participating throughout the high school years and, most of all, by practicing the respect they ask of their children and allow the process for us all to have a voice.

Susan Willis 26 Bancroft Road

Voting against the Prop. 2% overridesEditor, Townsman:

Andover is fortunate to have an educated, fiscally responsible population. Which makes it so hard for me to believe the action taken by the majority of Town Meeting in passing Article 20, the school building and technology funding proposal, as presented.

I'm in whole hearted agreement we need to alleviate overcrowding in our schools. But I totally resent the insult to my intelligence and incomplete financial analysis propagated by the proponents of Article 20. To state the cost of this bonding proposal is fixed and will go away forever when paid off is preposterous. Fact the facts, people, we’re not adding empty space to our school buildings. The additional space has to be lighted, heated, cleaned and maintained. New classrooms mean new teachers with additional salary, health insurance and retirement costs.

All these expenses add to the budget base and will not go away. I would have preferred to see an analysis of the real impact of Article 20 to make an informed decision, rather than listen to the rhetoric put forth last Monday evening. I challenge any business owner or business manager in town to undertake a physical plant expansion without data on operating costs. You wouldn’t hear of it.

Regarding the computer technology proposal, consider an analogy. If you were purchasing new vehicles for your family, or leasing for your business, would you finance them over 20 years? Of course not; it’s fiscally irresponsible and imprudent to finance a vehicle with a two- to five-year service life over 20 years. You wouldn’t even consider it, yet alone ask a bank. But this is precisely what Town Meeting did by approving the second half of Article 20.

Computer equipment is one of the few commodities actually dropping in price. The longer we defer this purchase the more money to be saved. And based on the presentation at Town Meeting, most of this equipment is for the future,, post construction use, making a spending allocation today even more unreasonable.

It is with much regret that I’ll cast a vote against the override and urge others to do the same. It’s time to send a loud and clear message to our School Committee and School Building Committee that we want a responsible fiscal analysis on which to base a decision and a tenable capital equipment

plan.Steven Reef

Partridge Hill Road

Voting for theoverrides of Prop. 2%

Editor, Townsman:I have to respond to the comment at

Town Meeting that a 5 percent increase in the school budget was much too high given the rate of inflation. (The national average rate of inflation for the last year was 2% to 3 percent.) The implication was that Andover’s school budget should be on par with the nationwide average.

But Andover has never considered itself average. Ask anyone, especially our real estate brokers: Our property values don’t suggest that we are average. Another speaker suggested that we should settle for the same old quality of school buildings found in neighboring towns, again implying that the average or old is good enough. I respectfully suggest that Andover is better than this, and that its residents, and children, deserve better than the national average.

Keeping up with the rate of inflation means staying in the same place. But most of us aspire to more. If all we could hope for is to stay with the rate of inflation, many of us would have quit our jobs long ago. It is the prospect for improvement that keeps us going. Why shouldn’t our teachers and students expect more? Is it fair to expect them to do with less than we ourselves expect?

Finally, to all those who criticize our public servants, I challenge you to devote the extensive time that they do and to come up with a fool-proof proposal. It is easy to sit at Town Meeting and to criticize the proposals presented. It is easy to talk the talk, harder to walk the walk.

As citizens and voters, we have the legal right to attend most meetings and to obtain records. If we want to influence public decision, we should exercise our rights year-round to influence change within the confines of democratic government. It is grossly unfair, in my opinion, to ask our public servants to account for every nickel and dime, and all 99 other school building proposals at Town Meeting.

There is much more to say about why the citizens of Andover should vote to pass the school building project, but I defer to my fellow citizens. I urge all parents and other interested persons to take this next 45 days to canvas neighborhoods, workplaces and anywhere else to gather votes for the school building project.

Success at Town Meeting does not ensure success at the polls. There is much work before us.

pain, he said.“It’s a great soreness."David Doyle, 26, of 15 Barrington Drive,

a first-time marathoner, ran a 3:37:15.Keith Driscoll, 27, of 8 Joseph St. and a

1985 graduate of Andover High, ran his second Boston, in 3:35:28.

He was one of 75 people who ran as part of Team in Training, a Leukemia Society of America group whose members raised money for leukemia care and research with their runs. His goal going in was to beat his time of 3:40 from two years ago, and to raise the money. He succeeded at both.

Mr. Driscoll was a hurdler on the track team at AHS, where he said his idea of long distance was a quarter mile.

Tom McCarron, 37, of 16 Balmoral St., despite laying off the hamburgers this spring, finished his second Boston Marathon in 3:48:14, a bit slower than his 3:36 last year, and his goal of 3:30 for this year.

Leo Blais, 16, of 8 Rasmussen Circle, who runs track and cross country for Andover High School, reached one of his goals in just completing the marathon this year after dropping out at 21 miles last year.

He finished in 4:12:13, just short of his second goal, which was to break four hours.

Susan Siefcr, 47, of 16 Balmoral St., fin ished her third marathon in 4:25:16, bettering last year's finish of 4:35, but short of the 3:58 qualifying time she ran at Rhode Island in November. She needed 3:55 to requalify, but was just trying to break four hours.

Bob Cronin, 38, Andover police patrolman, was not able to run this year because

he had the flu. His wife, Sue Cronin, 43, did run and finished in 3:40:14, (3:36:23 with the handicapped start).

Rick Jaffe, 37, of 125 Main St., and his brother, Keith Jaffe, 39, of Bradford, both Andover High School graduates, ran their 22nd marathon together, their 13th Boston, hut separated after just 12 miles. Rick finished in 4:45 and Keith in 4:04.

“Just say I finished with a smile on my face,” Rick said Wednesday.

Rick said his muscles were already starting to stiffen up at 12 miles.

“I hit the 12-mile water station and told my brother to go.”

He walked and ran to about 17, where he started feeling better and was then able to run the rest of the way in.

He’ll be back next year and already has his sights on the centen nial run in 1996, Rick said.

“I'll always come back. 1 need to do something once a year.”

Felix Gregorian, 39, of Chelmsford and a pharmacy technician at CVS/Pharmacy in Andover, finished

was ecstatic.

his sixth marathon in 5:30 Monday.“This is the first year in six years

my calves aren’t responding at all, yesterday and today,” Mr. Gregorian said Wednesday.

He said he lacked sufficient training and would stop to walk, but when he saw the crowds cheering him on and he realized they had been standing there all day, he would t ry to run.

“Sometimes you say , ‘I got to run. I can’t walk.’ ” But then he would cramp up and have to stop again.

Other Andover finishers were:Stephen S. Anderson, 30, Phillips

Academy (2:56:36): Mark Hagan, 36, 4 Sevilla Road (3:23:30); Janies Batts, 52, of 16 Argyle St. (3:31:33); Mark Longwell, 33, (3:38:03); Maureen Mahoney, 29 (3:38:38); Sean Hagger

Kevin Sullivan, 45, .55 North St., was entered but did not run.

No finishing information was available for Beth Benson, 32; John lullucci, 51. 3 Pendant Court; Lawrence Rosenblatt, 30; or Arthur Derbyshire, 49, of 8 Argyle St.

The UMass Lowell Center for the Arts will present the puppet play Dream Catchers with the award-winning Theatre Sans Fil from Montreal on Sunday, May 1, at 2 and 4 p.m. Dream Catchers is described as “an often funny, always magical journey into the world of imagination. Designed for children ages 6-12, the show features 25 giant puppets ranging from 3- to 12-feet-tall and special effects, including black light, neon and onstage fireworks. Inspired by real dreams collected from children, the play follows two young children, ages 10 and 7, as they share their dreams with each other. The children decide to act out their dreams, recalling the characters, both frightening and friendly, who visit them at night.” Following the performance, the troupe will discuss dreams and demonstrate the operation of the giant puppets. Call the Center for the Arts at 934-4444.

Bats carry AHS to victories2 game, 20-run output powers team to impressive winsBy Rick Harrison

Rebounding with a vengeance from a season- opening one-run loss to Phillips Academy, the Andover High varsity baseball team scored 20 runs and banged out 27 hits in consecutive non- league victories over Merrimack Valley Conference rivals Tewksbury, 9-5, and Methuen, 11-1.

The wins led Coach Ken Maglio’s crew at 2-1 entering yesterday's scheduled league opener at home against Wilmington (0-2).

Tomorrow afternoon the Golden Warriors host Methuen (1-1) in a league game (2 p.m.), and next week the locals are at Tewksbury (Monday), home versus Haverhill (Wednesday) and home against Billerica (Thursday).

Eight of the first 12 games are at home before a stretch of four straight away games and seven of the last eight on the road.

“We’ve really cmshed the ball and played well offensively so far," said Coach Maglio. “I expected us to hit, but not this well. A lot of the kids had ofT years at the plate last season and they worked hard to got ready.

“There’s much room for improvement defensively, although we've turned three doubleplays.

“Todd Murray bounced hack with a strong pitching elTort against Methuen, and having Matt Wolcott back solidifies the rotation. Matty is the way we spell relief," said Coach Maglio.

Toby Guzowski has knocked in 10 runs on seven hits during the first three games.

Andover 9Tewksbury 5

Junior lefthander Cris Brown (1-0), with the magical No. 22 on his uniform shirt, started and picked up his first varsity pitching win with four frames of one hit hurling.

He survived seven walks and pitched out of several jams, as the visiting Redmon left seven runners aboard in the first four innings.

The Golden Warriors inched ahead in the bottom of the first when Captain Jeff Lembo rapped a Icadoff double to left field, stole third and scored on Paul Allard’s sacrifice fly.

Seniors Toby Guzowski and Bob Daley followed

with consecutive two-out singles to center, but Tewksbury starter Herb King averted further trouble with a pickoff.

DH Tom Gardner led the Andover second with a double to center. Dana McCann folowed with a walk and both advanced on freshman Brian Tis- bert’s sacrifice bunt.

I/?mbo drew a two-out walk to load the bases.Allard then stroked a 2-2 pitch to deep short,

and when the fielder hesitated on his throw the Andover catcher had an RBI infield single.

King escaped another problem when the next batter popped out to the mound.

Tewksbury closed the gap to 2-1 in the third when Brown walked Don Bibo, Herb King and Brian Morris before an infield error rescued Bibo.

A 6-4-3 doubleplay from shortstop Tom Tanin to second baseman Tisbert to first baseman Guzowski kept the Warriors’ ahead.

Andover sent 12 men to the plate, lashed seven hits and scored seven runs to blow the game open in the bottom of the fourth.

Key strokes were a two-run single by junior outfielder Mike Maguire and RBI singles from Lembo, Tanin and Daley. Two throwing errors chased home the other two runs.

The Redmen, whose assistant coach is Andover’s Leo Gravell, pecked away with two runs in both the fifth and sixth.

Tom Clarke and Tim Caverly worked in relief for AHS before Todd Murray came in to slam the door shut by getting the final two outs.

Bob Daley led the 14-hit assault with a perfect 3- for-3 afternoon, plus one walk, while Lembo, Allard, Guzowski and Maguire contributed two safeties each.

Eight of Andover's nine starters hit safely in the game.

Catcher Chris Snow powered Tewksbury with an RBI triple and single.

Defensive standouts for Andover were second baseman Tisbert, who handled four chances flawlessly, and Dana McCann with a run-saving catch to end the Tewksbury fourth when it was still 2-1.

Masters live up to nameSwimmers establish 15 league records

Early season a day at the beach for confident 6-0 netmenBy Rick Harrison

The main thing Andover High boys’ volleyball Coach George Sullivan must guard against now is over-confidence on the part of his players.

"1 overheard several of them telling one of our (high school) administrators that we won't be challenged by anyone until we play New Bedford (May 23)," said Sullivan. “That’s dangerous talk and I had to nip it in the bud."

New Bedford is a month down the road, to be sure, and there are 10 matches between now and then.

Still, it's hard to argue with success and the Golden Warrior netmen have shown few flaws in their first six matches.

Andover boosted its overall record to a perfect 6-0, including 3-0 in the North Alliance, with its fifth and sixth 2-0 sweeps over league rivals Methuen and Lowell.

No opponent has even come close to challenging the locals thus far.

They are now in the midst of a 12-day spring vacation break, and won’t return to the court until next Wednesday when they host Chelmsford at the Dunn Gym (3:30

p.m.).

The first round of North Alliance matches concludes next Thursday at Billerica.

Coach Sullivan, whose team lost some valuable practice time at the AHS gym last week because of Town Meeting, gave his undefeated club several days off after the victory over Ixiwell.

“If all you do is practice it’s easy to get bored and stale,” explained Sullivan. “We’ll return to the gym on Wednesday (yesterday), and I’m working on a couple of scrimmages before the Chelmsford match to keep everyone sharp.”

Andover 2Methuen 0

Despite the absence of senior Captain J.P. Guerard (flu) for the second straight match, the Warriors cruised past the host Rangers 15-3,15-5 at the Methuen High Field

House.“We served very well throughout the

match,” said Coach Sullivan. "We mixed things up and everyone played. We were in control the whole way after a few mistakes at the beginning, it looked like our kids were pumped up too much. We hit a few shots wide early in the match before getting

“We looked like a pro team in the opening game," said Coach Sullivan.

“But we continually shot ourselves in the foot during the second game. We took a 3-2 lead and then got stuck. There was one complete serving cycle without a point being scored.

“The home crowd eventually got our kids going again,” continued the coach. "There was plenty of action in the middle, and both Alex (Raymond) and (Glenn) Wilson gave Lowell trouble with their hits.

“We also had a lot of strong second and third efforts to keep the ball alive.”

By Rick HarrisonA resounding victory in the 21-school

Wilmington Invitational for the girls, and a rare dual meet loss for the boys, created an interesting week in Andover High track.

The defending champion AHS girls also slugged Chelmsford, 80-51, in a Merrimack Valley Conference Large School Division dual meet to up their record to 2-0 and extend their regular season win streak to 12.

The girls team, second to Masconomet Regional in this meet last year, after winning it several times in the past, returned to the top.

"The conditions certainly weren’t the best (intermittent, heavy rain), but the weather didn’t seem to bother our girls at all,” said Coach Collins. “It was a terrific

effort.’’Andover’s 108 points were among the

.most scored in the event’s history, and the margin of victory (52 points) was the widest

ever.Second place Lowell was followed by

19 points.Teams from as far away as Dennis-

tral Mass, township Harvard made the trek to Wilmington to participate.

AHS added four second places to its five firsts and scored in 15 of the 17 events, coming up empty only in the discus and 100- meter high hurdles.

Individual winners for the champs were junior Jamie Barron in the long jump (16'8”), senior Captain Sarah Witman in the 440 yard dash (62.7) and sophomore sensation Susan Ashlock in the two-mile (12:06.7).

Ms. Ashlock ran by herself for most of the race, pulling away early and winning by approximately a half-lap (200 yards). Second place Kendra Kiley of Somerville was 37 seconds behind in 12:43.8.

“Dick has himself another great find (Ashlock),” said meet director Frank Kelley of Wilmington. "She’s already a terrific distance runner. No one came close to challenging her in this race.”

Andover also placed first in both the 4x110 yard and 4x440 yard relays, the sprint team consisting of sophomore Randi Spiegel, junior Amy Levesque, Jamie Barron and senior Captain Stacey Iâvoie (53.3) and the mile crew comprised of freshman Samantha Witman, senior Valerie Gould, Susan Ashlock and Sarah Witman (4:24.4).

Ms. Barron capped a solid all-around performance by adding a second place in the 100 meter dash (13.2), while other runners-up were Ms. Levesque in the 220 yard dash (27.7), junior Amanda Verreault in the 880 yard run (2:40.3) and junior Eveline Yang in the triple jump (33’5”).

Andover took three of the six available places in the triple jump, junior Rebecca Goldenberg fifth (32’1”) and sophomore Allyson Ahem sixth (31’10”).

Capturing thirds were Ms. Spiegel in the 100 meters (14.1) and sophomore miler Erin Collins (5:56.2), while fourths were secured by juniors Kim Daher in the shot put (30’2”) and Leah Mason in the javelin toss (87’8”).

Completing the Andover scorers in sixth were junior Julie Rozopoulos in the 330 yard intermediate hurdles (51.6), Ms. Verreault in the high jump (4’6”) and the 4x880 relay squad of freshman Abby Clarke, senior Captain Leigh Clarke, junior Beth

Cummins and Amy Twohig (11:02.5).The AHS coaching stafT decided to pull

New England champ Stacey Iâvoie out of the 100-meter high hurdles event for her own safety.

It was raining hard at the time of that race’s trial heats (no finals were held), and the talented AHS standout did not want to aggravate a leg injury suffered during the winter season.Andover girls 80Chelmsford 51

The Warriors, now 30-2-1 in their last 33 spring meets, placed first in nine events and swept the long jump and shot put to key the victory over the visiting Lions.

Stacey Lavoie and Jamie Barron were double winners, the former in the 100-meter high hurdles (15.8) and high jump (4’8”) and the latter in the long jump and 100 meter dash (13.5).

Ms. Barron's leap of 17’6-3/4" was a new personal best for Andover's indoor Eastern Regional (fourth place) and New England Meet long jump qualifier.

The pair also joined Amy Levesque and Randi Spiegel on the victorious 4x100 meter sprint relay team (51.7).

Other individual first places went to Kim Daher in the shot (32’1”), Eveline Yang in the triple jump (33’8”), Ms. Levesque in the 200 meters (26.9), Sarah Witman in the 400 meters (61.7) and Susan Ashlock in the deuce (12:04.0).

Completing the sweep of the long jump were Ms. Yang (15’7”) and sophomore Laura Burkle (15’3”), while 2-3 in the shot put went to freshman Sue Tully (27’6”) and junior Stephanie Casey (27*5”).

Rebecca Goldenberg nailed down a pair of seconds in the triple jump (32’6”) and 100 meter hurdles (17.2), while other runners- up were Ms. Daher in the javelin (94’6”), Ms. Casey in the discus (86’9") and Amanda Verreault in the 800 meters (2:34.0).

Warriors are hit hard inBy Rick Harrison

The top-to-bottom strength of the Merrimack Valley Conference hit the young Andover High varsity softball team hard in opening league games against defending State Division 2 champ Wilmington and Haverhill.

The Lady Warriors dropped a 15-6 decision to visiting Wilmington and lost 9-2 against Haverhill.

“We had quite a few outstanding athletes and still finished 8-12 the past two years,” said Coach Ken Pellerin. “After we beat North Andover (7-6), I think a few of our newer girls forgot how tough our schedule is.

"We opened against two very good teams after graduating some quality players. It’s going to take time for our first-year starters to develop their skills. In most cases you can't step in and take over immediately."

Andover, 1-2 overall, returned to MVC play earlier this week against winless Methuen (0-2) and was scheduled to play at Tewksbury (0-2) this afternoon (2 p.m.).

Billerica (home, Monday), Lawrence (away, Wednesday) and Chelmsford (away, I'Yiday) are on the agenda next week.

“Wilmington, Haverhill, Dracut and Chelmsford, because of their pitching and athletic ability, appear to be a notch above everyone else," said Coach Pellerin. “But we’ll get our share of victories."

Girls and boys tennis teams sweep matchesBy Rick Harrison

There is this slight annoyance called the regular Merrimack Valley Conference season that the Andover High boys’ and girls’ tennis teams must go through each spring.

This year started the same as virtually every other one during the past decade, with Coach Tony Russo’s AHS girls and Coach Mike Wartman’s boys steamrolling to 5-0 victories over Wilmington and Haverhill.

Both local squads were slated to host Methuen last Tuesday, and this morning they swapped strokes with Tewksbury.

Junior Aprille Canniff stepped in and did a fine job against Haverhill.

Wilmington 15Andover 6

The Lady Warriors managed five hits, including a pair of home runs by Andrea Marino and Aprille Canniff, against Wildcats’ ace Adrienne Eay who fired a no-hitter two days later versus Lowell.

But a pair of six-run Wilmington outbursts in the third and sixth innings keyed the defending MVC Small School champs’ victory.

Senior Jen Thomson made her first varsity start and pitched two innings of one-hit, one-run ball for the locals.

Sophomore Vanessa Blank worked the final five frames, yielding eight hits, but a combination of eight AIIS errors and 10 walks hastened the team’s downfall.

Four walks and two errors helped the Cats score six in the third, as they grabbed an early 7-0 lead.

eran Heather Young each routed respective singles’ opponent Janie Cassinello, Allison Murray and Jessica Roberts without surrendering a game.

It marked auspicious AHS varsity debuts for both Ms. Mogilevich and Ms. Young.

In doubles action, junior Jackie LeMaitre and sophomore Andrea Marvin stopped Amy Herman and Melanie Johnson 6-2, 6-0 while seniors Amy Fenton and Captain Laura Cavic- chi bageled Katie Senisi and Kim Tarr 6-0, 6-0.

It was more of the same against Haverhill, although the Billies managed to capture four singles’ games and one doubles game in the 10 sets.

Automatic Ms. Georgian (2-0 record) hammered out a 6-1, 6-1 decision at No. 1 versus Samantha Cerasuolo, Ms. Mogilevich (2-0) toyed with Ann Marie Driscoll 6-1, 6-0, and Ms. Young (2-0) overpowered Christina Murphy 6-0, 6-1.

In doubles, Andrea Marvin and


opening softball gamesThe Lady Warriors bounced back

with three runs in the fourth frame when Eileen Sweeney laced a one-out single, advanced to third on a bunt by Mindy Eox, and scored when Ms. Blank dropped a double into left-center. Ms. CannilT followed with her two- run homer, a gap shot to right-center.

The rivals scored two runs each in the fifth to make it 9-5, Andover producing on a two-out walk to sophomore Jen Munroe and Andrea M;irino's two- run homer to the right Centerfield alley.

Wilmington’s second six-spot in the top of the sixth put the game away, and Andover retaliated with one run in the bottom of the seventh. Ms. Munroe drew a two-out walk, stole second, and came around when the catcher’s throw sailed into center field.

Vanessa Blank finished 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles.

Defensive standouts, despite the eight miscues, were sophomore third baseman Elaine Licata and senior second baseman Mindy Eox.

Vanessa Blank had much better control, walking only two and striking out three in a route-going performance, but the host I fillies (2-0) chipped away with to hits and runs in every inning except the second and fifth.

Jackie LeMaitre (2-0) squashed Ellen Torosian and Kerri Fudge 6-0, 6-0.

Senior Carrie Green and junior Jen Griffin stepped in at No. 2 doubles and dominated Erika Anderson and Stacey Albanese 6-0,6-1.

Andover boysThree 6-0, 6-0 sweeps highlighted the

Golden Warriors’ opening romp over Haverhill at the Billies’ Winnekinni Park courts.

Senior Captain Dan Queen had no trouble at No. 1 singles as he ripped Justin Cifra 6-1,6-1.

Sophomore Mike Stein, undefeated in all matches last spring, extended his string with a 6-0, 6-0 rout of Justin Lupa at second singles.

Senior Captain Adam Monahan kept things moving with a quick 6-0, 6-0 dispatch of Jason Lizewski at third singles.

Stepping up to first doubles. Captain Jon Iarrobino and sophomore Kurt

Bretton scattered four Andover safeties and impressed Coach Pellerin en route to her second win.

“She reminds me of Sheri Martino (former Haverhill and current Northern Essex Community College ace) in both style and physique,” said the AHS coach. “She throws hard and keeps the ball at the knees.

“Their first four batters are all huge. Sarah Jewett (leadoff hitter) killed us with 3-for-3, three RBI and four runs scored.

"We played a better game, much sounder defensively and with fewer walks, but Haverhill has so many athletes,” noted Coach Pellerin.

Andover scored once in the top of the second to tie the game briefly at 1-1. Elaine Licata singled, stole second, took third on sophomore Sue Cook son’s bunt and came home when sophomore Deana Gray’s grounder was misplayed.

The second run came in the seventh as sophomore standout Meghan “Skip- py” Lynch reached first on a dropped third strike, Ms. Gray singled her to third, and she crossed uncontested on Andrea Marino’s infield out.

Vanessa Blank and Ms. Marino contributed one single each.

Defensive standouts for Andover were senior first baseman Mandy Wilson (10 putouts), catcher Aprille Can- nilTand pitcher Blank (eight assists).

Dahlstrand cruised past Huy Giang and Andre Quadrado 6-0,6-0.

Showing little mercy at No. 2 doubles were senior Akil Palinsamy and sophomore Andy Ravens who crushed Phang Phom and Chris Foss 6-0, 6-1.

It was more of the same versus Wilmington, beginning with No. 1 and 2 singles where Dan Queen (2-0) and Mike Stein (2-0) whitewashed the Wildcats’ Steve Smith and Mark Trinchera 6-0, 6-0.

Adam Monahan (2-0) also conducted a clinic at No. 3 singles with a 6-0, 6-1 romp over Ryan Swasey.

In doubles, Jon Iarrobino and Kurt Dahlstrand (2-0) had just enough competition to keep it interesting en route to a 6-3, 6-3 conquest of Bryan McFeeters and Dan King.

Wrapping things up at second doubles was the AHS tandem of Will Hall and sophomore Ravi Tharisavi who posted a 6-1, 6-0 triumph over Tom Casella and Kosta Radosavljevit.

WRING OUT THE SPONGEII a driver finds that the brake

pedal (eels spongy upon braking, it may be an indication ol air in the hydraulic system. Repeotod pumping ol the brake pedal producing significantly higher pedals positions may serve to confirm this suspicion II so. the problem can bo rectified by having the auto technician 'bleed* the system of air On rare occasions, a spongy brake pedal may result from brake fluid vapor lock This occurs duo to localized boiling at the brake fluid which, in turn, results Irom the heat generated by torcelul braking and moisture in the brake fluid Moisture lowers the boiling point of brake fluid, which readily attracts water Therefore, brake fluid should be replaced periodically to rid the system of moisture.

The brakes of your car are very important to keep healthy. II you ever feel at all uncertain ol your brakes* operating abilities, it is imperative that you have them inspected by a qualified service technician Here at Nassar Ford, our service and parts department is one ol the most modern and complete in the area.

Smoke the night away(Continued Irom page 1)

conducted what they hoped would be the first of many cigar-smoking evenings.

“There is sort of an old world charm to cigar smoking,” said Steven Leed, who named Davidoff as his cigar of choice.

"I don’t see what the problem is. We’re not lepers, we’re not out to hurt anyone. It’s good food, it’s taste," said John Photakis of the Owl Shop tobacco store in Worcester. “There's probably going to end up being smokers’ clubs.”

If that’s the wave of the future, Mr. Photakis plans to be right on the crest. Some day he may even turn his building into such a club, he said.. But on

•March 31 he was simply one of several men to take part in "The Big Smoke,” an inaugural night of stogie-smoking, salmon-savoring, drink-downing fun.

"Tobacco, wine and food," said Nick Valhouli, owner of Petro’s. “That’s always played a role in classical cuisine.”

“Why do people get together? They have common interests. What the antismoking has done is pushed us closer together as a group,” said Mr. Photakis. “This shows me that there are people out there with good taste. The anti-smoking has snowballed dramatically.”

Few of those without an interest in selling tobacco products said they viewed the night as a response to the

' growing anti-smoking legislation, however. It was a nice opportunity to smoke openly, and, of course, indoors.

'ANDOVERTVWN^MAN

“I think people who smoke cigars look for a reason to smoke cigars,” said Rick Sedler of West Newbury. But he said cigar-smoking has become a rare pleasure.

“We usually get banished to the garage,” said his friend and former neighbor, Jim Sheppard of North Andover.

Though the event was dubbed the debut night, cigar smoking at Petro’s has not been a rare pleasure in the past. After dinner and the closing of the restaurant, Mr. Leed of Royal Jewelers, Frank Cieri, of 6 Martingale Lane, and Mr. Valhouli often enjoy cigars together, according to Mr. Leed. One evening Mr. Leed brought Mr. Photakis, and he seemed to fit right in. An idea was born.

“I suggested one night - where Nick already knew John and enjoyed cigars - that we put this together,” said Mr. Leed. “That’s how it came to be.”

Most present said the cigars were an added pleasure to an otherwise mouthwatering evening.

“Cigars are nice, but wine and food are more important,” said Stuart Peck of North Andover. “I’m here because 1 love Nick’s food and I love Sam’s wine. A special event here is what draws me.”

*,‘I-actually agree with a lot of the anti-smoking legislation," said Jim O’Connell of Boston. “But something like this is a great event.”

In addition to the cigars from the Owl Shop, "The Big Smoke" night also featured hors d’oeuvres, salad, two

entrees and dessert by Petro’s cafe, and wine by Messina's Liquors, with Ken Powers of West Roxbury’s Carolina Wine Company assisting in the selection.

What made this event special, though, was the chance to sample several fine cigars. This was particularly tempting to relative newcomers to the stogie scene.

Jesse Page, of Lincoln, for instance, said he just became interested in cigars when “1 was up at my grandfather’s house and I discovered an old box of Cubans, and then I heard about this."

“It is getting tougher and tougher" to find a place to light up, said Augie Papetti of Georgetown, who chuckled

as be pointed at a friend across the table. “He’s got a fan and exhaust system (in part of his house) to get the smoke out.”

Check out your car or RV before the vacationMillions of families will be vacation

ing by car, light truck, van and RV this summer, but some trips will be ruined by mechanical breakdowns. Summer’s heat and stop-and-go traffic can cause components to fail. To help lessen the chances of a breakdown, the non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) offers the following advice:

• Don’t wait until the day before your vacation to begin a crash-course in car maintenance. Routine mainte

A weekly maintenance check will prevent costly repairsAuto dealers and mechanics agree,

giving your car a quick five-minute maintenance check each week will prevent costly repair bills and prolong the life of your car.

The only tools necessary for the check are a rag or paper towel, tire gauge and multi-purpose lubricant.

On a weekly basis, or when filling up at a gas station, professional mechanics recommend checking:

• Oil levels: Check and change oil on a regular basis. Check automatic transmission fluid monthly by parking with engine running (not hot). Add fluid if dipstick reads low. It’s time to check the brake fluid when the pedal has to be pushed closer to the floor to stop.

• Tires: Examine for worn tread and incorrect alignment of the tires. The

nance is be a year-round investment.• Read your owner’s manual; follow

all recommended service intervals and keep good records.

• Inspect your vehicle periodically for unusual sounds, odors, changes in performance and handling, leaks, drips, etc. Be prepared to mention these symptoms to your auto technician.

• Look for ASE-certified technicians. ASE technicians have taken tough exams to prove their competency to

tires are out of alignment if there is uneven wear on the threads. Check tire pressure with a pressure gauge.

• Coolant: Check radiator fluid level when car is cool by examining coolant overflow tank or removing radiator cap. Add water if necessary. Replace antifreeze/coolant solution annually.

• Corrosion: Check for clean battery connections. Make sure terminal and cables are free of corrosion and are firmly attached. A quick spray of WD- 40 will remove this corrosion. (It also helps unstick power antenna, gummed door locks and can even remove tree sap and road tar from your car’s chrome and painted surfaces.)

• Air filter/fan belts/hoses/clamps: Check car for frayed fan belts, broken clamps, damaged radiator hoses or an

their employers and to you. They often wear blue-and-white ASE shoulder insignia, while their employers display the blue-and-white ASE sign.

• A summer inspection should cover the following: air conditioning system, belts and hoses, engine performance and fluids. Also check condition and tightness of belts and hoses, radiator, brakes, tires (including spare), suspension and steering, all lights and bulbs, the battery and windshield wipers.

• Carry some tools, road flares and a

air filter that needs to be replaced.• Windshield wipers/fluid: Check

windshield solvent and wipers monthly.

• Test lights/signals: Test front, rear, brake, parking, low and high beams and turn indicators monthly. Replace bulbs and ftises and keep lights clean.

To help identify problems in advance, experts also suggest keeping a fuel and oil log for your car. Note the

Cabriolet isAudi's high performance sports sedan

To its range of sports sedans, midsize luxury, high performance and ultra-luxury models, Audi adds for 1994 a handsomely styled convertible - the Audi Cabriolet.

With the striking lines of a classic roadster, Audi’s first-ever Cabriolet features a power top that at the push of a button folds into a covered storage area.

A sell-out success in Europe since its introduction there in 1991, the U.S. version Cabriolet is powered by a 2.8- liter, 172-horsepower, V6 engine with an electronically-controlled, four- speed automatic transmission. The V6 pulls well all the way to the red line while the transmission moves easily up and down the gear selector range.

“The Cabriolet is a fun car," said Gerd Klauss, vice president in charge of Audi of America.

“Yet with all of the excitement of open-air motoring come such practical features as front-wheel drive and dual airbags.

“As much as it is a car for fun in the sun,” he said, “the Audi Cabriolet is a car for all seasons."Standard features include:

• A beautifully crafted insulated, power-operated soft top with headliner, a large plastic rear window and a fan-assisted rear-window defogger.

• A central switch that operates all four windows simultaneously.

• Driver and front passenger airbags.

• Five-spoke alloy wheels.• Leather seat upholstery.

Power soft topAt the turn of the T-handle wind

shield-header latch and the push of a center-console button, the driver can open and close the top without getting out of the car.

The electro-hydraulic powered soft top releases easily and then withdraws into its own compartment, where it is stowed out of sight. To close the top, the button is pushed and the T-handle is secured to the windshield frame. Each process takes about 30 seconds and, for safety reasons, can only occur when the Cabriolet is parked with the handbrake fully engaged.

The easy-to-operate top encourages open-air driving on shorter trips while offering greater security when the car is parked for short periods.Structural rigidity

To bolster the Cabriolet’s body strength and torsional rigidity, Audi reinforced the door sills, the door pillars, cross members, longitudinal chassis members and windshield frame.

A special stiffener is installed

The ConvertibleBuilt From The Ground Up.

Not The Top Down.Years ago, we could have brought you a soft top, or we could

have modified one of our other models. But that’s not our style. In

the Audi Cabriolet, we built a great car first, a convertible, second.

We gave it a 2.8 liter, V-6, 4-speed

automatic powertrain and the road-handling you

expect from a car developed near the Alps. So,

for the first time in North America, you can put

the top down on an Audi, go find a winding road

and let the good times roll.

And you can really leave all the hassles behind when it comes

to maintenance. You get a 3-year or 50,000-mile scheduled

maintenance plan covering even wiper blades and oil changes at no

charge. There’s much more, but why waste your time reading?

Come in and see us for a test-drive now.

Lexus ES 300 performs in good weather or badLexus has been tested by the ele

ments.This past New England winter, 17

storms and more than eight feet of slushy, icy white stufT tested many a vehicle. For almost five months, cars and drivers faced the daily stress of perilous conditions. And Lexus prevailed. The perfect car for weatherabil- ity now, and in the harsh New England winters in the future, is the Lexus ES 300.

A Lexus is perfectly suited for the weather that has just passed. But it also puts the driver in touch with the delights of spring. The Lexus ES 300 gives luxury with a front-driving automobile.

According to Don Stephenson, Lexus Eastern area manager for Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc., when Saab and Volvo owners were queried on what attracts them to the various Swedish vehicles, the list included reliability, front-wheel drive, comfort, a knowledgeable dealer and service department, good mileage and versatility.

Lexus ES 300 easily meets these same criteria. When Lexus accordingly changed its regional advertising, placing the ES 300 in snow, sales rose 9 percent.

Lexus listened to its customers and made several improvements for 1994. The new Lexus ES 300 includes an allaluminium, 24-valve, 3.0-liter V-6

engine that’s lighter and stronger than before. Its finely tuned brain is engineered to offer more horsepower and better economy. This is the new four- speed electronically-controlled automatic transmission with intelligence called ECT-1.

Drivers have a choice of either a “normal" or “power” mode to choose from. The Lexus offers only automatic transmission.

To greater please its customers, Lexus has engineered out noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) as a standard feature.More safety features

In 1994 a passenger-side airbag was added to the Lexus ES 300. Its seat cushion height is adjustable.

There’s an outside temperature gauge to measure the extremes of New England weather. To prevent stalled batteries, the Lexus ES 300 dashboard has a lights-on indicator.

In response to customers requests, Lexus ES 300 offers a remote key entry system.

The 3-D backlit dash is one of the best ever designed and clearly visible at all times.

Adding to the security that comes with a sense of safety, Lexus offers anti-lock brakes (ABS) as a standard feature.

The Lexus ES 300 has a non-CFC refrigerant in its climate-control system.

$389 a monthAny CEO-in-training would appreciate doing business in a Lexus ES 300. It has a luxurious interior to carry your staff, an optional phone and a great view. So have your person call our person. Your Lexus dealer, Ira Lexus in Danvers, will be happy to set up a meeting.

Cellular phone capabilityLexus ES 300 comes all prewired

from the factory for a cellular phone hookup. This optional cellular phone can also be portable.Test drive in New England

During a 200-mile drive through hilly New England terrain the car is comfortable and quiet. The engine is so quiet and vibrationless on start-up that one must look at the tachometer to see if Ihe needle jumps, indicating the engine has started.

In addition to dual airbags, safety features include bracing to the sills and center tunnel, extra stiffening for the A-pillars and strong extruded beams in the doors. According to Audi tests, the Cabriolet meets 1997 U.S. government side impact standards. The windshield frame is reinforced with high-strength plastic to resist bending.

Even at high speed, the Cabriolet is stable and sure footed with interior buffeting negligible to non-existent. Other standard features

Standard technical features include front-wheel drive, power rack and pinion steering, anti-lock brake system, 195/65 HR 15 all-season tires, anti-theft vehicle alarm system, fully-galvanized sheet metal and CFC-free air conditioner.

Standard exterior features include aerodynamic halogen headlamps with high-pressure washer jets, 5 mph bumpers, body-colored protective side moldings and outside mirrors, front elliptical projector fog lights and a single rear fog light, headlight-washer system, polished/chromed cockpit surround, trim and windshield frame and metallic paint.Options

Options are limited to a windscreen that covers the rear seat area, protecting front passengers from buffeting and an all-weather package that includes heated front seats, heated windshield washer nozzles and heated door locks.Colors

New Lexus ES 300 offers luxury and road performance(Conlinued from page 5A)

On the road, the ES 300 is as competent as one would expect from a car of this stature. Performance is very good. Economy is better. Low-end power exists, but there’s more top-end speed. Selecting "power” alters the transmission shift points and, although not needed for passing, it provides added muscle.

Power-sensitive steering allows the driver to feel the road in the higher speeds but it does not strain in slow city-driving situations. There’s no trace of torque-steer in this front-driver. The four-wheel independent MacPherson strut suspension system gives the Lexus ES 300’a quality ride expected from a luxury vehicle.

The Lexus ES 300 ride remains smooth and true to the road. The 4- wheel ABS compliments this superbly- engineered vehicle. A 3.0-liter engine (188 hp) is equal to the challenge of demanding terrain.Luxury options

The Lexus ES 300 offers, as an option, leather-covered seats ($1,300), firm and smooth like butter. Heated seats ($400) are part of the short option list, but leather seats are required with this package. However, a very responsive heater and cooling system might make that option unnecessary. There is no cold weather package available; such items must be ordered separately.

A power moonroof ($900) helps driver and passenger celebrate spring.

Cutting edge sound systemThe Lexus has an eight-speaker pre

cisely-tuned system. With all its parameters precisely defined, music surrounds the driver and each passenger. A 180-watt stereo delivers sufficient power.

On the highway, the Lexus ES 300 averages 30.16 mpg in mixed, combined driving.

Lexus sold 23,773 units last year, an U-percent increase. Owner loyalty is such that in the East, 75 percent of all Lexus owners said they would buy another.

Proper disposal of used motor oil is essentialBy Norm Hudecki

If you perform your own oil changes you may not be sure what to do with that gallon of black, used motor oil sloshing around in your drain pan.

Should you:A. Pour it down a drain or into the

sanitary sewer system?B. Pour it over a gravel road to keep

down the dust?C. Pour it over the ground in an out-

of-the-way corner of your yard?D. Place it in a sealed container in

your trash?If you answered “yes” to any of

these choices, read on.

The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that 61 percent of do-it-yourself oil changers improperly dispose of their used motor oil.

Do-it-yourselfers produce about 391 million gallons of used oil a year, so almost 240 million gallons of used motor oil are dumped into our soil and water each year.

Pouring used oil into the storm sew er or sanitary sewer system is like giving it a direct pipeline to the water sup ply. If spread over the ground, the oil will seep into the groundwater, and

One quart, of oil can ruin the taste o f 250,000 gallons o f drinking water, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. That same quart, can produce a film two acres tvidc on the surface of water. It can hill plants and animals in water and cause serious damage to equip

eventually the water supply. The same is true of putting oil in the trash - when it is taken lo the landfill, the container will break and the oil will run into the soil and water.

One quart of oil can ruin the taste of 250,000 gallons of drinking water, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. That same quart

can produce a film two acres wide on the surface of water. It can kill plants and animals in water and cause serious damage to equipment at water treatment facilities.

On the other hand, used oil can be collected and reprocessed for new products, such as a fuel oil substitute for industrial uses. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that if all of the used motor oil generated in the U.S. could be collected and burned for electricity, it would meet the needs of 900,000 homes a year.

So what can you do with that used motor oil? The best solution is to find a used motor-oil collection center in your community that will take your oil and properly dispose of it.

Valvoline Instant Oil Change, which operates more than 275 quick lube service centers, recently announced that it would accept used motor oil from do- it-yourselfers. Many service stations, independent quick lubes and retail stores that sell new motor oil will also accept used oil.

Some state and local organizations have established networks of used oil collection sites in their areas and can

A reminder on foul weather for motorcyclistsIf you ride a motorcycle remember

this: decreased traction due to rain or sleet on the road, plus decreased visibility due to rain, fog, or other weather conditions, means take special precautions.

These safety tips, from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administra

tion, may help motorcyclists in rough weather:

• Wear protective gear: The helmet is the most important piece of protective gear and can greatly reduce the severity of injuries in a crash.

Jackets and pants should be of stur

dy material. Durable gloves are especially important and should be of a non slip material such as leather for a firm grip on controls.

• Dress to be seen: Wear bright col ors especially on the upper body. Wear a brightly colored helmet.

If you must wear dark colors, bright

en clothing and headgear with fluorescent straps or reflective tape.

• Always ride with headlights on. This will ensure that you are more'easily seen by motorists, day or night.

Remember, the helmet is your most important piece of protective gear.

Protect your auto investment with regular maintenance

1994

With new car prices averaging $15,000, it makes good financial sense to protect your automotive investment through regular maintenance and service.

But unless you are a skilled do-it- yourselfer, you’ll need to find good auto repair. Here are hints on how from the experts at the non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE ):

Get involved. Read the owner’s manual, even if you do not intend to do the repairs yourself. Be certain you have your vehicle serviced according to the recommended intervals found in the

Tips on buying a car stereo one piece at a timeQ. My car came with a sound sys

tem. Are there other ways to buy one?

A: Certainly. In addition to buying a car with a factory-installed sound system, you can buy a separate sound system from the same car dealer or from an auto radio dealer, or buy the compo

manual.Don’t go it alone. Ask your friends,

relatives, and business associates for the names of shops they recommend.

Use local consumer groups. The Better Business Bureau can tell you if the shop in question has many complaints lodged against it.

Look for signs of professionalism. ASE offers the only national, industrywide credential available to working technicians.

Shops which employ ASE technicians often display the blue-and-white ASE outdoor sign, while the certified technicians wear matching shoulder

nent parts separately.If you decide to buy the system piece

by piece, look for an AM-EM stereo radio receiver; a cassette and/or compact disc player; a power amplifier; anywhere from two to six speakers and a Digital Audio Tape player (now available, but still expensive).

Just make sure the units of the sys

insignia.Look for organization and shop poli

cies. Does the shop appear to be orderly, relatively clean, and free of clutter and old parts? Are the policies concerning labor rates, guarantees and estimates clearly posted in the customer service area? Is the staff helpful?

Remember, timely maintenance will save you money in the long run and give you i«ace of mind as you drive.

Choose the correct tire for sport utility vehiclesAs families and economists know,

light trucks have become one of the nation’s most desirable vehicles, comprising five out of eight of the top-selling vehicles.

All those new truck owners will soon need to re educate themselves about tires when replacement time rolls around.

Light truck owners range from professional people who never take their vehicles off the road to avid outdoors people who tackle tough wilderness trails.

To meet these varied demands tire companies are producing an ever- wider range of light truck tires. Deciding on the right one depends on driving style and anticipated need. Choices range from all-terrain and “max” trac

tion to basic highway-rib designs.Bruce Bradshaw, consumer prod

ucts marketing specialist for Firestone, explained that if a sport utility vehicle is used primarily to go to work, to transport kids to school and haul groceries home, then an all-season, highway-rib design tire makes sense.

Mr. Bradshaw offered Firestone's Firehawk R4S as an example. Its rubber compound provides long wear and a rib-type tread design minimizes road noise while offering excellent all-season traction. This type of tire works well on a sandy beach, but its off-road capabilities are rather limited.

A truck that is used on and ofT road should have an all-terrain tire with its aggressive tread pattern, Mr. Bradshaw said. These tires, typified by the

Firestone Firehawk ATX, are sure-footed over most trails and in the snow. Yet they deliver a smooth ride on the highway, though not quite as smooth as a highway-rib design.

At the other end of the spectrum are the inax-traction tires, which are targeted at the light truck owner who drives in the most challenging environments.

Firestone’s version, known as the Firehawk RMT, for “recreational max traction,” features the latest in max- traction technology.

A max-traction tread pattern enables the tire “to chum through the deepest mud and up the steepest inclines of rock or dirt without debris getting clogged between the tread," said Mr. Bradshaw. “When this hap

pens, a tire becomes slick and traction disappears.”

Some drivers might be tempted to buy a max-traction tire for its aggressive look and in case they ever got into some serious trail driving.

This would be a mistake, however, because the max-traction tire is not as quiet on the highway as the less aggressive tires and it does not wear quite as long.

"Tremendous strides have been made in developing max-traction tires that are quieter on the highway, but they still can’t totally match the road manners of a highway-rib design tire,” Mr. Bradshaw explained. "The best advice is to match the right tire with the drivers’ needs, and tire dealers can help consumers with these decisions.”

Prepare your vehicle for use in an emergencyImagine you suddenly have to evac

uate your neighborhood because of a flood or other disaster. You round up your family, jump in the car and start the engine. Is there enough gas in the tank? Are there blankets and maps in the trunk? How about family medications?

Once an alarm sounds, it may be too late to gather these vital items together. If you keep your car equipped with

useful supplies, you’ll be better prepared for any possible hazard.

To prepare your car for emergency, just follow these three simple steps:

1. Keep your vehicle fueled. If electric power is cut off, gas stations may not be able to operate their pumps for days. Don’t, however, store gasoline in your garage or trunk because the Rimes can be dangerous.

2; Stock your auto with emergency

equipment including a battery-operated radio and extra batteries, blankets, booster cables, a five-pound, all-purpose A-B-C rated fire extinguisher; a first aid kit with manual; a flashlight and batteries; shovel; tool kit; and flares.

3. Add such other necessities as area maps; non-perishable, high-energy foods such as raisins, canned goods and the like; bottled water and any spe

cial items needed by infants, the elderly or those requiring medications.

Check these supplies regularly to be sure they’re all there and working.

Consider these tips on finding a good mechanicBy Pat Lazzaro

Finding a good mechanic needn't be a wrenching experience. The key word is TRUST. That’s for Training, Recommendation, Understand, Survey and Trial.

First, the amount of training mechanics have is vital to getting the best care your car can receive.

Look first for signs outside the shop ffiat read ASE, or NIASE, for example. These are organizations that certify mechanical expertise. Check the walls for certificates of training specialties such as alignment and air conditioning from manufacturers, suppliers and retailers.

Then consider recommendations, which are some of the best ways to find a good shop. Friends who have had good service experiences are great resources. Feel free to check with an independent source, however, such as the Better Business Bureau.

Learn all you can about car basics to help yourself better understand your car’s systems and their maintenance requirements.

Next, you need to survey the market by calling 4-5 shops that meet the above qualifications whom you would consider for maintenance. Which ones instill confidence in their people and procedures? Which ones help you best on the

phone? Which seem prompt and friendly?

Finally, trial. Let your top selection handle something simple like an oil change. How were you treated? How was the service? Do you feel confident coming back again for a more significant repair? Build a relationship with a mechanic as you would a physician. Take your car to them with minor problems, so when you have major ones, you’ll have a mechanic you can TRUST!

Pat Lazzaro is a certified auto mechanic and professional race car driver who serves as an advisor to Firestone Tire and Service Centers.

Let your top selection handle something simple like an oil change. IIow were you treated? How was the service? Do you Jeel confident coming back again for a more significant repair?

How to communicate for better auto serviceAs summer arrives, many motorists

will be having their vehicles serviced before warmer weather sets in. Here are some tips from the non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence on communicating effectively with repair shops:

Do your homework before taking your vehicle in for repairs or service:

• Read the owner's manual to learn about the vehicle’s systems and components.

• Follow the recommended service

schedules; keep a log of all repairs and service.

Use all of your senses to inspect your car for:

• Unusual sounds, odors, drips, leaks, smoke, warning lights, gauge readings; worn tires, belts, hoses.

• Changes in acceleration, engine performance, gas mileage, fluid levels.

• Problems in handling, braking, steering, vibrations.

Note when the problem occurs:• When did the problem first start? Is

it constant or periodic? When the vehicle is cold or after the engine has warmed up?

• At all speeds? Under acceleration? During braking? When shifting?

Once you are at the repair establishment:

• Be prepared to describe the symptoms; but do not suggest a specific course of repair.

• Do not be embarrassed to ask questions.

• Don’t expect an on-the-spot diagnosis, but ask to be apprised of the prob

lem, course of action, and costs before work begins.

• Be sure you understand policies regarding diagnostic fees, labor rates, return of old parts, guarantees, etc.

A Note about ASE: The mission of the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) is to improve the quality of automotive service and repair through the voluntary testing and certification of automotive technicians. Certified technicians wear ASE shoulder insignia. Their employers often display the ASE sign.

ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT, THE ANDOVER TOWNSMAN, APRIL 21, 1994

The automotive equivalent of a decathlete

A quick glance al the marketplace reveals any number of sedans that comply with the superficial criteria of a so-called luxury car. What

is exceptional about the new Mercedes Benz C-Class sedans is their sheer automotive substance.

A C220 or C280 sedan rewards its owner not merely with comfort, convenience and performance, but with a full measure of Mercedes-Benz engineering excellence.

The C-Class achieves what the driver desires: refined driving pleasure, impeccable craftsmanship and environmental concern.

In brief, a C-Class sedan is the automotive equivalent of the decathlete. It will excel over the widest possible measure of automotive attributes.Controls

From the grouping of critical controls within easy reach to the integration of the optional cellular phone, the Class-C driving environment takes ergonomics to a new level.

The new Class-C sedans feature improved headlamps and standard fog lamps that increase brightness and projection to aid nighttime visibility.

Within the cabin, all switches are illuminated and gauges are backlit.

Convenience features are designed to be operated in the most intuitive manner.

This ease of operation extends even

to the factory prewired optional cellular telephone. With its overhead console-mounted microphone, the indash control unit allows the driver to make most calls without using the handset. Structure contributes to safety

The Class-C body is made from high- strength, low alloy steel. The extra strength improves structural integrity without adding excessive weight to the car.

The C-Class passenger cabin is a rigid safety cell built to withstand extremely high stress in the event of an accident. Side impact protection is integrated into the doors, rocker panels and floors. Roof pillars are made of triple layers incorporating high- strength steel to help improve protection in case of a rollover.

Within the rocker panel, a special brace helps maintain the integrity of the passenger cabin.

The full-size spare tire is placed so as to aid in absorbing some of the energy of rear-impact forces.Safety features give confidence

Class-C features a fourth generation Antilock Braking System (ABS) that helps prevent brake lockup in extreme braking conditions. Four-wheel disc brakes provide suj>erb stopping power. Cooling ducts help brakes resist fade from heat.

Passive safety features include driver and front-passenger airbags. The

Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan

Class-C sedan offers three-point belts for driver and the front seat passenger. The brake jwdal swings forward, away from the driver’s foot to prevent injury in a crash.Comfort

The rapid air circulation of fresh, temperate air throughout the passenger cabin is vital to keeping the driver alert and the occupants comfortable.

In a Class-C sedan, an automatic climate control system helps maintain the preset temperature of the cabin

year-round. It uses a CFC-free refrigerant. k

In addition, the Class-C sedan has a "Rest" feature that allows the system to recirculate heated air for 30 minutes after the engine has been turned ofT on a very cold day.

An electrostatic filter removes dust, pollen and pollutants to maintain air quality.
