The Board of Health has ex-perienced many changes over the past two years, from new membership to adjustments in the way they do business, in-cluding handing over control of the town’s solid waste and recycling to selectmen.

With one of the board’s long-standing projects, the landfill capping, set to move forward this summer, the board is going through an-other transition. On Monday, the board met with selectmen to jointly appoint a new mem-ber, Donna Bagni, to fill long-

time member Lisa Cullity’s seat. Cullity stepped down in October.

The board also is search-ing for a new health agent af-ter former agent Fred Leary was let go on Oct. 19. Leary, who served as the town health agent for 17 years, had been on sick leave since about last November.

Town Administrator Ed Thorne said Building Depart-ment employees and Board of Health members have been pitching in to do much of the work, including perc testing

As toy catalogs arrive on doorsteps and kids of all ages write out their holiday wish lists, one local family is taking a different approach.

Chris and Barb Devine and kids Erin, 13, Brendan, 10, Sean, 8, and Logan, 5, are getting reading to downsize this weekend, reducing their belongings by about 80 per-cent in an effort to check off one big item on their wish list:

a new family room.They’re getting some

help from friends, who will be providing volunteer labor and support Thursday through Sunday in a marathon effort similar to those depicted on reality shows like TLC’s “A Clean Sweep.”

“We’re calling it ‘A Devine Clean,’” said Kathy Cincotta, who met the family through St. Joseph the Worker Church

Anyone who has felt the chill of a late autumn breeze knows there’s plenty of wind activity around Pembroke. Local

inventor Bob Mann is hoping to harness that wind to make electricity for his home, using something else Pembroke has plenty of: trees.

Once weather permits, the High Street resident plans to install his self-made Treetop Wind Turbine at the top of an 80-foot pine tree near his home. The prototype is the result of about three months of work, including design, construction and testing. The tur-bine will convert wind power into electricity, ulti-mately helping Mann and his wife Susan cut down on their energy bill.

American Legion Post 143 has been serving Pembroke

since 1919. The organiza-tion, named for Arthur Briggs Church, who died in World War I, has been generous to the community. Now, under the leadership of Commander Wayne Woodward, the post looks to continue the many outreach programs for our community. Having served in the U.S. Navy from 1962-68, Woodward is starting his fifth year with the organization and has lived in town for more than 22 years. He is proud of the accomplishments of the group and the impact on the town.

What is the role of the American Legion? We do a lot of community activities and support a large number of groups. There are multiple programs for the youth and veteran’s support programs including the Veteran’s Ad-ministration (VA) hospitals. We help out both Boy Scout troops in town, have an Amer-ican Legion baseball team and contribute to a women’s softball team. We also assist in some youth programs such as the student trooper pro-gram to learn about becoming a state trooper. We also have a program where high school students can learn about the United States government. We also work closely with the member of the Women’s Aux-iliary to support the patients at the VA hospitals.

How active is the Pem-broke post? We are very ac-tive. There are so many activi-ties that we do. One new thing is a spaghetti dinner for the

quadriplegic patients at the VA hospital. We also help out the Town Memorial Commit-tee with the Veterans Day and Memorial Day programs.

How would somebody join your post? All they have to do is show up at one of our meetings. The American Le-gion is open to anyone who has served or been honorably discharged from the armed services. The difference be-tween our group and the Vet-erans of Foreign Wars is how you served. The members of the VFW fought in a foreign war. You only needed to serve in the armed forces to be eli-gible to be a member of the American Legion.

How frequently does the group meet? We meet month-ly on the fourth Thursday of the month. We may have to go to a second meeting because we are so busy. Our meetings are held in the Bryantville Meeting House, which used to be the Grange Hall. We just started meeting there this past January or February after hav-ing met in the Town Hall.

Where does the organiza-

tion obtain the funds to sup-port so many organizations? We receive money from dues paid by our members and are grateful to receive some funds through private donations. We currently have about 100 mem-bers of the American Legion in Pembroke. The town has over 1,100 veterans with over 100 currently serving worldwide; that includes 35 serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Do you feel we take suf-ficient time to reflect on the contribution of those who have served our country on Veterans Day? Yes, I think we do pretty well. Just three years ago, Pembroke’s Veterans Day services used to be in the Council of Aging. Two years ago, we had so many people they were nearly out the door so we moved to the Veterans Commemorative Town For-est, which is near the middle school. I think the whole thing is pretty nice, even though it does get a little chilly. I think it is important for our commu-nity to take the time to reflect on giving the respect to the veterans that they deserve.

Selectman Dan Trabucco has expressed concern over plans to use water from Sil-ver Lake to cool a natural gas power plant in Brockton.

The project, proposed by Brockton Clean Energy, has already received approval from the Department of En-vironmental Protection and the Energy Facilities Siting Board, a state agency that oversees the licensing process for major energy plants. But the company recently changed part of its plan, requiring addi-tional public hearings. Instead of using treated waste water from the city to cool the plant’s turbines, the company wants to tie into the city’s drinking water supply, which mostly comes from Silver Lake.

Trabucco said he wanted to know how the use would impact Pembroke’s water ta-ble, and that of surrounding communities.

Selectmen on Monday au-thorized him to send a letter to Senator Therese Murray and State Rep. Dan Webster ad-dressing these concerns.

“The town of Pembroke is concerned that an amendment to the power plant’s original approval has been requested by the plant’s owner to use public drinking water to cool the plant rather than the ap-proved use of waste water as coolant. This has a direct im-pact on Pembroke and the re-gion, in that Brockton draws its water supply from Silver

Lake, which is partially situ-ated in Pembroke,” Trabucco wrote in the letter to state of-ficials. “A specific concern is that the town does not know what impact this draw of wa-ter will have on the water table of Silver Lake, the immediate area as well as the Taunton River Watershed.”

Selectman Arthur Boyle said Furnace Pond feeds into Silver Lake and that the plant’s use of water from the lake could adversely affect both bodies of water.

The Energy Facilities Sit-ing Board opened hearings on the proposal Tuesday in Brockton, and additional hear-ings are scheduled for Mon-day, Nov. 15, Thursday, Dec. 2 and Monday, Dec. 6.

Both of the original deci-sions by the DEP and by the Energy Facilities Siting Board are currently being appealed. Brockton Clean Energy also must obtain zoning and other permits from Brockton city boards before the project can move forward.

In other business Monday, selectmen met with Fire Chief Jim Neenan to discuss signing a mutual aid agreement with surrounding towns for fire-fighting services. The issue was tabled for two weeks

The board also met with Community Preservation Committee chairman Brian VanRiper to discuss issues that arose at the fall Town Meeting regarding historical Community Preservation Act projects.

Brockton plans may affect town


Teen leads police on cross-town car chase

A 15-year-old girl led police on a chase through Pembroke and Hanover early last Thursday before a police barricade finally slowed her down.

The teen, whose name was not given be-cause she is a juvenile, was pulled over on Church Street around 1:30 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 4 when an officer on patrol noticed she had a defective taillight. While the officer was at his cruiser, the teen suddenly took off, driv-ing in the area behind the North River Plaza before heading back out onto Route 139 and then driving up Route 53 to Hanover. Hanover police were able to lay out a barricade that took out the vehicle’s tires, though it also damaged tires on both a Pembroke and Hanover cruiser, according to Pembroke Police Lt. Mike Jen-ness. The young driver continued on at a slow speed to the Hingham line, where she was eventually forced to pull over because of the damaged tire.

According to reports, the girl told police she had borrowed her mother’s car so she could meet up with a boy she met online in Marsh-field. The mother told police she was not aware her daughter had taken the car.

The teen was charged with unlicensed op-eration of a motor vehicle, failure to stop for police, negligent operation, marked lanes vio-lation and a third offense of using a motor ve-hicle without authority. She also was cited for a motor vehicle lights violation and for speed-ing.

Man charged with OUI after hitting utility pole

A Pembroke man who lost control of his vehicle on Schoosett Street, crashing into a utility pole, is facing a charge of OUI.

Gary Zullig, 48, of Hilltop Road, was ar-rested Saturday around midnight after he failed to negotiate a curve on Schoosett Street near Water Street. Police believe he was traveling “well over” the posted speed limit of 45 miles per hour, according to Pembroke Police Lt. Mike Jenness.

Zullig was charged with OUI liquor, neg-ligent operation, marked lanes violation and speeding. He was arraigned Monday in Plymouth District Court.

House broken into twice in one year

A Congress Street home was broken into last week for the second time this year.

A glass door in the side of the house was shattered but nothing major was taken in the break-in, which occurred

sometime on Thursday, Nov. 4.Police were called to the home around 7

p.m. by the resident, who said she had returned from work to find her front door open and the side door shattered. She also found a pair of hedge shears on the ground, which police be-lieve were used to try to pry open the door, ac-cording to Pembroke Police Lt. Mike Jenness.

The bedroom was the only room that ap-peared to have been rummaged through. The jewelry box and bureau drawers were left open, but the only item reported missing was a pillowcase from the bed.

The house was one of several that had been broken into in January. The resident had re-turned home to find her door smashed in and several pieces of jewelry missing.

Attempted break-in on Washington Street

Police are looking into a house break-in on Washington Street that may be related to a break-in that occurred last week on Congress Street.

The resident told police she left the home Monday afternoon around 1:45 p.m. and re-turned around 3:30 p.m., finding that her front door had been partly kicked in, though the dead bolt remained secured. Though the door was damaged, it did not appear the perpetrator made it inside, Pembroke Police Lt. Mike Jen-ness said. No one in the area reported seeing or hearing anything at the time of the attempted break-in.

Jenness said the incident was similar to other break-ins around town in that the perpe-trator attempted to enter by brute force; how-ever, because of the time of the incident and the distance from other breaks, police are not sure the Washington Street attempt is related.

HELPING NEIGHBORS KEEP WARM: The Pembroke Giving Circle, a group of friends devoted to helping those in need around the community, held a fall open house on Saturday, Oct. 23, featuring soups, chowders and stews around a blaz-ing fire, all to benefit the Pembroke Fuel Assistance Fund. The group raised $1,935 for the fund and collected two bags of food and a bag of gloves, socks and hats for the Pembroke Food Pantry. Above, Giving Circle members Donna Frano, Donna Donovan, Terri Schreiber and Phyllis Bopp hand a check for the fuel fund to Mary Willis, director of the Council of Aging. The Giving Circle’s next event will be a pajama drive, with details to be announced. Courtesy photo

The Dull Men’s Club had its first meeting on Nov. 24, 2000 with about seven mem-bers. Among that original group was the club’s founder, Council On Aging senior aide Joe Collins, who died earlier this year, and current member Connie Church. In the last few years, the club has expe-rienced a sustained growth in membership. The DMC now has almost 30 members and averages 23 at their weekly meetings, Wednesdays at 10 a.m. at the senior center.

To celebrate a decade of service to the men of Pem-broke, the Dull Men will hold a birthday bash after their meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 24. At 11:15 a.m., the group will head to the Knights of Columbus Hall on Schoos-ett Street for a turkey dinner. Members wishing to attend this event need to advise club president Al Radin by Nov. 17. All members, or anyone just curious, is invited to join them and see what keeps Wednes-days from getting dull.

I hear this past Halloween ➢was a quiet one. Lauren Cur-ley and Courtney Garvey from Tara Drive were out and about that evening. They had a great time and they even visited a haunted house along the way. They both agreed, however, that it was like a ghost town along the route that they traveled that night.

The College Board recent- ➢ly recognized students as AP Scholars for receiving scores of 3 or higher on three or more AP exams in May 2010. The 2010 recipients from Pembroke High School are: Michael Carter, Michael DiTocco, Gregory Johnson, Kevin Kell, Robert LaMarre and Jacob Schis-sel. In the 2011 National Merit Scholarship Program, com-mended students placed among the top five percent of more than 1.5 million students who took the 2009 PSAT. The recognized students are: Michael Cum-mings, Gregory Johnson and Krista Mizzoni. Senior Robert LaMarre is a National Merit semifinalist in the 2011 Nation-al Merit Scholarship Program. Semifinalists are the highest scorers in each of the 50 states and represent less than one per-cent of each state’s high school seniors. Be sure to congratulate all of these students for their ac-complishments when you see them around town.

The Insolia family has just ➢returned from their 23rd annual mission trip. Francesco Inso-lia, wife Suzanne Thompson, daughter Marguerite Insolia, son Alessandro Insolia and longtime neighborhood friend Mike O’Connor spent two weeks in the Dominican Re-public on a dual medical and construction mission. The In-solia group, working with other mission doctors, nurses, inter-preters and construction crews, were stationed in San Pedro de Macoris and traveled by bus each day to the mission sites of Angelina and Santa Fe. In these impoverished small villages, four doctors, three nurses, two pharmacists and three interpret-ers saw about 160 people daily. A wide range of medical issues were treated and followed. The intense heat and humidity com-bined with lack of running wa-

ter and virtually no sanitation facilities, along with an unem-ployment rate of 65-75 percent, contribute to the many difficul-ties faced by these people. The Insolia group has followed this batey (small village) population on multiple missions and have formed strong bonds. Mike worked daily in the steamy 100-plus degree heat to build a new home for an aging woman whose shack was decimated in a recent hurricane. The group’s next mission is scheduled for March.

Mary Lou Chase ➢ , program chairwoman for the Mattakee-sett Garden Club, has engaged Carol Stocker for their Novem-ber program to be held on Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. at the Pembroke Public Library. Carol has inter-viewed most of the gardening world’s celebrities, from Martha Stewart to Tasha Tudor. She is a three-time winner of the Gar-den Writers Association award for the best newspaper garden column in America. She has appeared regularly on “Greater Boston with Emily Rooney,” WGBH-TV and New England

Cable News. Everyone is wel-come to attend the meeting.

On Nov. 4, at the Oak Point ➢Ballroom in Middleboro, the Plymouth and South Shore As-sociation of Realtors presented “Realtors Got Talent” — a va-riety show to benefit Homes For Our Troops. Two of the participants in the performance were Michael Serode, owner of Salon Serode in Pembroke, and Pembroke resident Kris Som-ers, who received his training at Berklee College of Music. As Sonny (Kris) and Cher (Mi-chael), they did a fantastic job of singing “I’ve Got You Babe” accompanied by Sonny playing the guitar. In a separate act, Kris performed a solo called “Sonny Bono Plays Guitar.”

North Pembroke Elementa- ➢ry School, located at 72 Pilgrim Road, will hold a Holiday Fes-tival on Sunday, Nov. 21 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be crafters and vendors, shopping and gift-wrap areas for the kids. Six trees, each decorated with a different theme, will be raffled off. I hear one of the trees will be decorated with lottery tick-ets. The winner will take home all the items on the tree. Don’t miss out on the Cake Walk. With a $2 raffle ticket, if your number is drawn, you will have a choice of any cake, pie, or gin-gerbread house on display. This year, Jan Goodman, owner of Cityscapes, will have poinset-tia plants, greens, wreaths and swags for sale. There is some-thing for everyone. All proceeds will be used for enrichment pro-grams for the students at North Elementary School. If you are a crafter and would like to reserve a table ($35 each), please call chairwoman Susan Gannon at 781-826-1463.

John and I must have celebrated an anniversary sometime in the past at Flemmings Steak House

in Boston. Just recently, John received an e-mail from Flemmings inviting us to have dinner at that restaurant any eve-ning within 30 days before our anni-versary. The e-mail went on to say that they would discount our bill 1 percent for every year of marriage. For us that would mean 45 percent off, and we thought that was a great deal! So a few weeks ago we made reservations and had dinner at Flemmings. We were treated like royalty and at some point during the evening everyone from manager to chef to wait staff came over to our table expressing their congratulations on our special occasion. Some restaurants really know how to do things up right. And now let’s see what’s going on around town.

The Only Thing We Overlook is a Golf Course & Pond!

DOING HIS CHER: Michael Serode, owner of Salon Serode in Pembroke, performed as Cher at the “Realtors Got Talent” vari-ety show to benefit Homes For Our Troops on Nov. 4. Serode was joined in the act by Pembroke resident Kris Somers as Sonny.



for septic systems and water samples at the local ponds. He also hired outside contractors to do food service inspections as needed.

“We’ve done it, but it’s been rough,” Thorne said of filling in for Leary. “I think we were lucky the economy was slow [and there was little new construction].”

The board is accepting applications for the agent po-sition this month and hopes to have someone in place by December, according to chair-man Tom Driscoll.

Leary said, though he knew the town needed some-one on the job, he was disap-pointed they couldn’t find a way to keep him on. He met with Thorne to discuss his op-tions a week before receiving the termination letter. One op-tion was to look into retiring early, but Leary said he did not want to use up his pension early.

“I want people in town to know that if there were any possible way I could do my job, I would do it,” he said. “It’s not just for the money. I loved my job. I miss doing it. This whole thing is through no fault of my own. I’ve tried to get better.”

Leary said he started ex-periencing trembling fits and suffering from muscle aches and joint pain around Decem-ber 2008. His doctor initially diagnosed him with Parkin-son’s, and he began treatment for that, but the symptoms worsened.

Leary changed doctors about three months ago and was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease and mercury poisoning — both of which he believes he contracted through his work for the town. He is currently being treated for both.

“There’s no question in my mind that they both came from work,” Leary said. “The Lyme disease thing is hard to prove, but the only time I was ever out in the woods was do-ing perc tests or doing some-thing else for work. The mer-cury poisoning isn’t hard to prove because I got that from a box of thermometers that were under my desk.”

Since about 2000, the town has offered a service where residents could turn in their broken thermometers for dis-posal. The thermometers were wrapped up and kept in a col-lection bucket in the office un-til the annual hazardous waste disposal day, Leary said.

“I knew as a health agent that you don’t handle mer-cury, but I found out from my doctor that it actually gives off a vapor all the time and, over a long period of time, you can eventually get mercury poi-soning,” Leary said. As soon as I found out that there was

a high level of mercury in my blood and my hair, I let Ed Thorne know that that box was under the desk and that he should not only get rid of it but also have other people in the office tested.”

Thorne said he had dis-cussed the issue with Leary but did not know of anyone else in the office who had come down with symptoms. He said he did not believe any thermometers currently were being kept in the office.

Driscoll, who was elected to the board in May, said he was surprised to hear the ther-mometers were stored in the office at all.

“At no time did we au-thorize or advise Fred to keep thermometers under his desk. We had numerous hazardous waste disposal days while he was there,” Driscoll said.

Despite believing he be-came ill on the job, Leary said he has not pushed for aid from the town.

Instead, Leary said he is focusing on getting healthy, though he does not believe he will be allowed to return to work in Pembroke.

“I’ve managed to keep up my licenses,” Leary said. “”I want to return to the industry as soon as I can get better.”

Meanwhile, the Board of Health is moving forward as well. Donna Bagni, a local real estate agent, will be joining Driscoll and Liz Cytrynowski on the board.

“I have been a resident of Pembroke for 26 years and have come to a point in my life where I want to really get involved in the commu-nity,” Bagni said Monday. “I knew that the seat was avail-able for the Board of Health; I thought I’d give it a shot. I’m a licensed real estate agent, have been for 10 plus years in the town of Pembroke. I have experience outside of the box on septic systems, because it is part of my daily business as a Realtor. I also had years of working in different res-taurants, being not only in the service end of it, but also in the training aspect of it.”

Bagni raised two children in Pembroke with husband Gerry and was active on the PTO board when her kids were in elementary school. This is her first position in town gov-ernment.

Bagni said she hasn’t de-cided whether she will run for the seat in the spring election.

“Right now, I want to see how it goes, if this position works for me and the Pem-broke Board of Health,” she said.

Bagni replaces former Board of Health member Lisa Cullity, who said she decided to step down, in part because the landfill project — which she helped work on for many years — was nearly complete. She also said she is looking to

pursue new career opportuni-ties, including applying for the health agent position in Pembroke. To be eligible for the job, she must be off the board for at least 30 days.

“I think I would probably apply for it,” Cullity said of the Pembroke job. “Being unemployed for as long as I have, it would be ridiculous not to pursue it as an oppor-tunity, but that’s not the only opportunity I’m pursuing.”

Cullity, a licensed electri-cian, has been out of full-time work for about two years.

Residents Gary Fine and Vince Flaherty also applied for the open seat. Flaherty ran for an open Board of Health seat in the May town election but lost to Driscoll.

Flaherty said he plans to run again for the open seat in the next town election.

Mann, an auto mechanic who specializes in Volkswa-gens and Audis, has been trying to build up a business converting vehicles to run on natural gas as well as gaso-line. He has sold several kits and converted vehicles and drives two converted bugs of his own, including one that doubles as an advertising ve-hicle for his business — a modern black bug with bright yellow daisy detail.

Mann fills up his vehicles at a natural gas pump installed at his home, paying about 60 cents per gallon and getting about 40 miles to the gallon.

But with the federal gov-ernment pushing solar and wind power, natural gas as a clean-energy option has taken a backseat.

“I was trying to get money from the federal government to promote [natural gas vehicles] for this part of the country. I end up selling my cars in Utah, Missouri — where they have natural gas pumps. We never really got it to take off over here,” Mann said. “In the in-terim, my electric bill was get-ting very high, and I thought if I couldn’t get any money from the natural gas project, I’d de-velop a wind turbine for the house and cut my electric bill. So I developed a wind turbine that goes on top of the trees.”

The windmill features blades that spin vertically rather than horizontally, the kind typically seen in coastal areas such as the town of Hull. Mann said his design has sev-eral advantages over horizon-tal, “propeller-type” wind tur-bines.

“This makes no noise, where the other ones — even the smaller versions — make a noise. They sound like a plane up in the air,” he said.

Birds can better see the vertical blades and are less likely to fly into them, he said.

Mann said his turbine also does not require a pole, and thus does not need special per-mitting.

“It’s designed to go up there where the wind is always moving,” he said. “I’ve been working with Newcomb’s [Tree Service], going over some of the different tree set-ups. They just trim a little bit at the top, the turbine is bolted on, and the power’s driven by a car alternator that’s been re-furbished.”

The 100-pound turbine

connects via cable to a grid inverter tied into the house’s elec-trical system. When the wind spins the turbine’s blades, the cable pumps power into the system, slow-ing down the meter and thus lowering Mann’s electrical bill. If the turbine creates more power than the house needs, it turns the meter backward, actually feeding elec-tricity back into the system used by other Pembroke residents.

“Hopefully, if I produce enough elec-tricity from the wind, I can offset my bill by at least half. On a small home, one of these [turbines] would probably pro-duce enough electricity to back-feed the meter, which National Grid would actu-ally pay you for,” Mann said. “One of these [turbines] will offset the bill quite a bit. It makes about 300 watts, which is enough for the refrigerator and some lights and stuff like that, at like a 20-mile-per-hour wind, which is a fairly good breeze up there.”

Neighbors may have seen Mann driving around town testing the turbine, which was bolted down to the back of his truck. While driving at different speeds, Mann kept an eye on the inverter to see how much energy the spinning blades produced.

But though the sight of the truck-mounted turbine may have drawn some inter-est, Mann said people haven’t even noticed the system at his house.

“I was testing it on the post here at the house and had people pulling in all the time, and it was spinning away and nobody noticed it,” he said. “It doesn’t make a peep.”

Eventually, Mann said he would like to get grants or in-vestors and put people to work building the Treetop Wind Turbines, which he expects could sell for about $3,000, including installation. The re-turn on that investment could be about three to five years. Mann has been attending clean energy conferences trying to learn how to take advantage of available state and federal funds but said it has been dif-ficult to get a foot in the door.

“If I can get [the Tree-top Wind Turbine] to market or get some help getting it to market with some grants, that’s great. And if not, I’ll just build them one at time for the people around here, and we’ll

put them up,” Mann said. “My philosophy is to build it. If it works, you just sell it, and help people cut their bills down.”

About five years ago, Mann drew some publicity when he invented the Mosquito Blaster, a device that used the muffler on a lawn mower to produce mosquito repellant fog while in use.

“I did very well with it. I sold some of the units, and it worked, but I just couldn’t get

the public to grasp it,” he said. “But the people who had it loved it.”

Mann said he has been in-venting since he was a kid and, along with the natural gas ve-hicle conversions, has several other projects in the works. But these days, he has one thing on his mind.

“Everywhere I look, I see windmills on top of trees. That’s where I’m at right now,” he said.

High Street resident Bob Mann stands with one of the Volkswagen Beetles he converted to run on natural gas as well as gasoline. The black bug, which features bright yellow daisy detail, doubles as a moving advertisement for Mann’s business (cngvw.com).

Once weather permits, Mann plans to install his wind turbine at the top of an 80-foot tree near his garage.

University founder called Pembroke home

By karen proctor, express coluMnist [email protected]

Often, when Pembroke residents decide to attend law school, Suffolk University in Boston is one of the schools they may investigate I’m not sure, howev-

er, how many realize that this well-known school was actually founded by a former Pembroke resident and blueberry farmer.

Gleason Archer, LL.D was born about 1880 in Plantation 33, Hancock County, Maine, the son of a blacksmith. In about 1900, he left his rural Maine for law school in Boston. From a mod-

est apartment in Roxbury, he at-tended law school while earning money washing floors in a “hash house” on Staniford Street and later as a waiter at Floyd’s res-

taurant at South Station. In 1906, after passing the bar, rather than taking a job at a law firm, he decided to make a career teaching other “poor boys” to become lawyers. From that same Roxbury apartment, he began to teach nine “enthusiastic, but desperately poor” working men.

Within 16 years, he was at the helm of a large school special-izing in night education and “in giving the poor boy a chance.” In a newspaper article by Francis X. Clement, Archer said, “I have modeled my school on no other school, nor have I stud-ied systems of teaching. Instead, I have devised a plan of my own. Many people have complained about it, but the results speak for themselves. A poor man has the right to study law and become a lawyer if he so desires.”

There were no rigid entrance exams; a high school edu-cation was suggested but, if after talking to an applicant Archer deemed him to have the brain power necessary to pursue a law education, he was allowed into the school. The school was growing and its graduates were going on to prominent positions in Massachusetts legal life, but it could not confer degrees. After a lengthy legal battle with then Massachu-setts governor Eugene Foss, new governor David Walsh signed a bill on March 10, 1914, and Suffolk Law School was legitimate. In August 1920, Governor Calvin Coolidge laid the cor-nerstone for a new building at Temple and Derne Streets. In 1934, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences opened at Suf-folk University.

Eventually, the founder of this highly esteemed school and author of 13 law textbooks, as well as several other books, came to Pembroke to run his Archer’s Blueberry Nursery at the corner of Old Washington and High streets.

What business would you like to see come to Pembroke?

SENd itEmS for the opinion page to [email protected].

dEadliNE for all letters & commentaries is tuesday at noon.

In his 1931 book “Epic of America,” American histo-rian James Truslow Adams

wrote, “The American Dream is that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for ev-ery man, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement. It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by oth-ers for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.”

The “American Dream” has not turned out as Adams envisioned. The dream became ma-terialistically a “dream of motor cars and high wages.” The dream has benefited no one except those with the wherewithal to afford its pur-suit. The American dream became a promise of wealth creation by politicians and advertis-ers that sold Americans a bill of goods designed for their own political or profiteering purposes. Television game shows like “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” and games like Monopoly help perpetuate that dream. It is a promise that every American through hard work, or determination, can achieve wealth; that every American can have a new car and own a home; that everyone can make it big in the land of riches. For every-one except those at the top, the American dream turned out to be just that, an illusion, which for all practical purposes most Americans will nev-er achieve.

America’s dream took the wrong path. The result: a credit-driven profligate America that is now debt-ridden, an economic collapse that has yielded erosion in the standard of living, and an income disparity that has undermined the prom-ised dream. It even looks like America may have created a permanent class of the unemployed.

In Fareed Zakaria’s Nov. 1 cover story for Time magazine, “How to Restore the American

Dream,” he writes, “There are solu-tions, but they are hard and involve painful changes — in companies, government programs and personal lifestyles.” Zakaria has offered pro-posals, which he says “are inherent-ly difficult because they ask the left and right to come together, cut some spending, pare down entitlements, open up immigration for knowledge workers, rationalize the tax code — and then make large investments in education and training, research and

technology, innovation and infrastructure.”Zakaria has not offered any new proposal.

Indeed, in our Zeitgeist, it is what needs to be done macroeconomically, but the real solution is long-term and more profound than that. It turns out that Greenspan’s phrase “irrational exuberance” is as applicable as it was when he addressed the “dot-com bubble,” because it is what got us into this mess, an overreach by Wall Street and Main Street over its lust for money. The solution requires a paradigm shift in think-ing and changes in lifestyle, requiring every American to assiduously refocus and recreate themselves in order for America to move for-ward; to understand that things cannot change on the drop of a dime; to understand that what attributed to our current fiscal tribulations were self-serving interest and irrational behavior.

Beyond the Zeitgeist, the “American Dream” must be an epic world journey leading universally from a money-based to a resource-based economy, to world peace, and to advanc-ing up the Kardashev scale to a type 3 civiliza-tion, where mankind has gained the knowledge to control all those things that economically, physically, and environmentally plague us, and we have, as Dr. Michio Kaku expressed, “colo-nized the galaxy itself, extracting energy from hundreds of billions of stars.” No matter how esoteric and utopian this may sound, it’s simple; humankind will not survive if we don’t change our ways.

By Horatio Green

Perspectives

Where does America go from here?

I’d like to thank the voters of Pembroke for coming out to

vote in last week’s election. While we came up short in the end, I remain very en-couraged by the response and take only positive mem-ories from this experience. Special thanks to our terrific Pembroke campaign team and all the folks who held signs, collected signatures, made phone calls, canvassed, helped with mailings, lit dropped, installed lawn signs, sent e-mails, signed cards, hosted cof-fees and generally put up with a hardworking but frenetic and over caffeinated candidate over

the past nine months.I offer my congratulations

to Mr. Webster for his victory and wish him well over the next two years. We are facing a difficult fiscal climate and we all should work together to make the best of it.

Right now, I am enjoying spending more time with my family and eagerly awaiting the birth of our new daugh-ter (any day now!). What the future holds after that we will decide in due course. Thanks to all. I wish everyone a healthy and peaceful holiday season.

Josh CutlerDuxbury

Many worked hard in election

Josh Cutler and team: Chin up! Your candi-dacy motivated this

citizen of Pembroke to get in-volved in the first campaign of her life. I witnessed commit-ment, intellect, dedication and genuine belief in Josh Cutler and his message of change for the better. While I did not en-counter the incumbent in my daily travels, it seems Josh was everywhere! At the Pem-broke Center Dust Bowl cam-paign HQ, picking up Meals on Wheels at the rear of the senior center, walking and knocking in neighborhoods in those worn out, old shoes and, magically, I saw his Navy Jeep Cherokee at every traffic light in town!

After 12 years as a Pem-

broke citizen, I chose to vol-unteer to do my small part to support the Cutler campaign. In doing so, I became more engaged within my own com-munity, met new people, found new ways to serve my community after the election and, for the first time, felt like a citizen of my own town, and not just a commuter to a sub-urban home. For that, I am forever grateful to the Cutler campaign. Thank you, Team Cutler, for introducing me to my hometown and to my fel-low citizens of all political leanings. Congratulations and chin up for leading a dignified campaign that reflected the good, decent citizen you are.

Leona RoachEdgewater Drive

Campaign introduced citizen to her community —————

Rachel Muriph Oletree Road

“I think that many major retail stores are missing from

Pembroke because the demand for these stores in Pembroke

is low and the current economy doesn’t support it.”

Lisa MacLeod Cranberry Road

“I think that there really is pretty much everything that we need in Pembroke. No businesses really

need to be added.”

Taylor Nicholaw Bagnell Drive

“I would maybe like to see a Wendy’s come to Pembroke because it would get a lot of

customers and the town would love it.”

Joe Porter Prince Way

“A business to find jobs for people who have lost their jobs. This would be helpful because many people can’t find jobs.”

Ryan Ahern Fox Path

“I want a Starbucks in the center because all we have is Dunkin’

Donuts and Marylou’s.”

Respect and Dig-nity! I could not agree more that all

Pembroke voters should rise above that which divides us as Republicans and Democrats and instead focus on mutual respect and dignity for one an-other. However, these words coming from Mr. Patrick Chilcott ring quite hollow.

Mr. Chilcott is the one who is allowed to use this space to foist his one-sided vitriol and hyper-partisan agenda. Mr. Chilcott is the one who refers to our president as “B. Hus-sein Obama” in a juvenile at-tempt at fear-mongering. Mr. Chilcott is the one who re-ferred to Sarah Palin as “Alas-ka’s Joan of Arc.” Mr. Chilcott

is the one who spent the last weekend of this campaign driving around Pembroke and putting anonymous flyers on voters’ mailboxes attempting to slander Josh Cutler.

None of those sounds very respectful, or dignified.

in Hanson and is coordinating the project. “I watch the [TLC] show a lot, and I saw the need. I know the family really needed to get into that other space.”

The “other space” Cincotta referred to is an unfinished ad-dition to the Devine home.

“About five or six years ago, we put on an addition that was going to be our new living room, because we definitely needed more space, but then we couldn’t seem to do the rest of the work,” Barb Devine said. “You can’t work and take care of four kids and do Cub Scouts and CCD and baseball and finish the addition, too. It became overwhelming.”

With Chris out of work for several months, it also was hard to find extra money to fin-ish the room, Barb said.

“We have money to pay the mortgage. We don’t have a penny to do this project,” she said.

Now, like on the show “Clean Sweep,” the Devines will be selling their extra be-longings at an indoor yard sale on Saturday, Nov. 13 at St. Joseph the Worker Church, 1 Maquan St., Hanson. The sale will be held in the fellowship hall from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and proceeds will help the family complete their room and reno-vate the rest of their home with paint and other improvements.

The kids in particular are looking forward to turn-ing their soon-to-be emptied computer and toy room into a “chill room” — a place with comfortable chairs where they can play, bang on their drum set and “just chill.”

The Devine kids are all do-

ing their part for the project, agreeing to go through their toys and pick just 10 of their favorites to keep.

Even five-year-old Logan is on board, though early this week he was still bargaining to keep 15 toys, because, as he explained, “I’m littler.”

But Logan also had boxed up a pile of Diego toys that he was ready to part with, and when asked if he was worried about getting rid of his things, he responded, “Nope. Not at all.”

Cincotta said she wanted to help out a family that does a lot for Pembroke. Both parents are active in Cub Scouts, youth baseball and through their church — Chris is Cubmaster of Pack 43 and has coached baseball, while Barb is a Eu-charistic minister and CCD teacher at St. Joseph’s.

“They do so much for our community, and I know it’s really hard for them to accept other people doing something for them. But they’re allow-ing us to go in and help them,” Cincotta said.

She is asking anyone who wants to help to call her at 781-

924-1880 or stop by the sale at St. Joseph’s on Saturday.

For Barb Devine, the help of friends seems heaven sent.

“We know a lot of people in town, so it’s kind of weird to be putting this out there. But in the same respect, we’re just witness to what love can do, to what people can do,” she said.

“We are experiencing something a lot of people don’t experience, and maybe it will show people that some-thing may happen in your life because you let it, because in-stead of saying no, you just say yes.”

Along with a new family room and a fresh coat of paint, Devine said she is looking for-ward to getting rid of a lot of the clutter.

“I grew up in a house where accumulation was a good thing, and I want to change it for my kids,” she said. “I want them to know less is more. It leaves a lot of room for love.”

Jon Hooper over the middle for a 34-yard touchdown pass to tie the game.

“That was really a key for us,” Bancroft said. “Last week, we were down two touchdowns, so we knew we could do it, and as the game progressed, we felt even with them. We recovered and did a nice job.”

Hooper returned to action after suffering a concussion against Hingham two weeks ago, and made an immediate impact. He torched the Indian defense for a 55-yard run for Pembroke’s first score before

catching the touchdown pass from Nagle.

“Getting Jon Hooper back helped us,” Bancroft said. “They really went after [Pat Walsh] because he was the key for us last week, and Jon took up the slack.”

Hooper also confused the Indian defense in the second half by lining up at quarterback in the Wildcat formation and picking up two first downs to bring the Titans within striking range for their second touch-down.

“[Hanover] did a great job scouting us, and this time of year, you really don’t have many secrets, so that was

something new,” Bancroft said. “Coaches Mike Driscoll and Kevin Regan did a nice job coming up with that. This time of year, you have to have something new like that.”

Hanover drove back into the Pembroke red zone after Hooper’s touchdown, but Bri-an Tinkham picked off Lane’s pass to the end zone. It was the second big defensive play for the Titans, who blocked a Ha-nover field goal earlier in the game.

The Titans played conser-vatively so close to their end zone and had to punt, but on their next possession, Nagle hit Allen for two deep passes and

then lofted a pass to captain Luke Leavitt in the back corner of the end zone for a 25-yard touchdown pass to give the Ti-tans the lead and the win.

“Luke threw some unbe-lievable balls,” Bancroft said. “These last few weeks he’s be-

come a real leader for us.”The Titans will host the

Sailors, who are coming off a 35-7 thumping of the Quincy Presidents, at the high school on Friday in their final game before their annual Thanksgiv-ing game with Silver Lake.

A date for the semi

DAVIS SAVES THE DAY: The Titans mob keeper Alex Davis (top) after she saved Alyssa Anderson’s penalty kick (bottom) to win Pembroke’s quarterfinal game over Sandwich on Tuesday.

Titans take down Sandwich in PKs to advance in tourneyBy Dave Palana, SPortS eDitor

Jenna Bostwick, Michelle Coate and Jordyn Rourke didn’t miss, and with the game on the line, neither did Alex Davis.

Davis dove right to knock down a shot by Alyssa Ander-son and propel Pembroke into the semifinals of the MIAA tournament with a penalty kick win over the Sandwich Blue Knights at the high school on Tuesday.

“I just guessed right; there is not much else you can do [on a penalty kick],” Davis said. “It was my first PK and it was the most nerve-wracking thing ever, but it was worth it.”

Head coach Kara Connerty alternated between Davis and sophomore Brooke Musial in net during the regular season, but elected to stick with Davis for the tournament. She said the senior’s experience paid dividends in the shootout.

“She was incredible,” Connerty said of Davis. “The pressure on you after a game like that is intense. What a ter-rific athlete she was to make a save like that.”

Sandwich’s Kenna Garri-son scored on the first penalty kick, but Bostwick answered for the Titans. After Katie McKenna missed wide for the Knights, Coate put the Titans ahead, and Rourke gave them a two-goal lead after Emily Duerr also missed wide for Sandwich. Davis then stopped Anderson’s shot to seal the win.

“Penalty kicks are so tough; the pressure on the kicker and the goalie are huge,” Con-nerty said. “Three years ago, we lost to Dedham in PKs and we didn’t want to repeat that. What a great way to finish [on

our home field]. What a job by Jenna, Michelle and Jordyn.”

While the Titans were dead on during the penalty kick round, they hung on for dear life during the final min-utes of the second half and the two overtime periods.

The Blue Knights tied the game off a corner kick with just under 17 minutes to play in regulation and kept the pres-sure on the Titans for most of the remaining time. In the final five minutes, Sandwich earned two corners and a direct kick that Davis punched away. Da-vis came sliding out of her net to break up a scoring chance for the Knights in the first overtime period, and Sand-wich couldn’t connect on two open crossing passes that went across the face of the Titan net in the second overtime. Duerr also had a chance to win the game for the Knights with less than two minutes to play in the second overtime when she got an open look at the net, but her shot hit the outside netting.

“At the end of the first half I thought that we started to get into our game, but it is so hard under these conditions and I think we panicked a bit,” Connerty said. “But we got through. Megan Ford, Aman-da Pugliese, Sarah James and Jordyn Rourke were just ter-rific for us defensively. [Sand-wich’s] strength is in their offense. To end with penalty kicks is not ideal, but to end with a win is pretty good.”

The Titans only managed one shot in the second over-time, but nearly won in the first sudden death period. The ball bounced over the head of Sandwich keeper Sharon Pi-etryka, but McKenna kicked the ball away from the net be-fore it crossed the goal line or Titan forwards Becky Stoyle and Renee Troudeau got a chance to knock it in as they crashed the net.

While Sandwich dominat-

ed the later stages of the game, the Titans were in control for most of the first half only to be stonewalled by Pietryka, who made two saves on shots from Coate while Sarah James had her drive hit the crossbar. The Titans broke through in the 35th minute when Stoyle was taken down just outside the box to earn an indirect kick for the Titans. Coate sent the kick across the field to Christen Ca-hill for a shot, and Stoyle fired the ball through the scrum and past Peitryka for Pembroke’s lone goal.

It was a much different win for the Titans than their 4-1 victory Monday over Nor-ton in the first round on the tournament.

Trudeau gave the Titans a 1-0 lead in the first half when she scored on a penalty shot, and Coate put the game away in the second half with a head-er goal off a Michaela McIsaac corner and a penalty-kick goal of her own. Trudeau then added her second goal with a rainbow shot over the Norton keeper’s hands from 25 yards out before Norton scored late in the second half.

“It was fitting because Re-nee and Michelle were our lead-ing scores all year,” Connerty said. “Defensively, I thought we played a great game. That Tri-Valley is a strong league, so we didn’t know what to ex-pect, but you have to play 80 minutes in tournament and I feel like we did that today.”

The Titans advanced to the semifinals for the second time in school history. They will play Medfield at Scituate High School Friday night at 7 p.m.

“It feels terrific for the 13 seniors,” Connerty said. “Any-thing can happen in tourna-ment and you have to prepare for every game, but we are just happy to get to the semifinals once again.”

Nick Burns had a tough day Friday. The Hanover Indi-ans seemed to have singled out the sophomore cornerback as the target of their aerial attack for most of the football game at the high school. But with no time left on the clock, Burns saved the day for the Titans and preserved one of their big-gest wins in recent years.

Hanover quarterback Matt Lane lobbed a desperation Hail Mary pass down the sideline that Pembroke captain Matt Al-len tipped in the air. However, Allen’s deflection knocked the ball right to a Hanover receiver that was behind the Pembroke defense, but Burns dove back and kept the Indians out of the end zone to nail down a 21-14 win for Pembroke.

“That was unbelievable,”

head coach Bob Bancroft said. “Nick Burns got beat two or three times in the game, but he did a nice job to get that

tackle.”With the win, the Titans

leapfrogged the Indians into second place in the Fisher Di-vision, and a win over Scituate next week would give Pem-broke a share of the banner.

“I’m just so excited,” Ban-croft said. “We’ve never been in this position in Pembroke, and these kids have worked their tails off to get us here. I’m really proud of them. We’re

going to enjoy it, go to work and see what we can do against Scituate.”

Things weren’t looking good for the Titans early in the game. Hanover struck first when Matt Stearns ran into the end zone from two yards out after Hanover marched down the field on the Titans. After Pembroke pulled even on a Jon Hooper touchdown, Hanover drove down the field in less than

two minutes on a scramble by Lane and a big catch-and-run by Bill Rooney. Lane capped the drive by hitting Stearns on a five-yard slant in the end zone to put Hanover back up with less than one minute left in the half.

However, the Titans stole the momentum in the second half when Luke Nagle found

For the Pembroke volley-ball team, Friday afternoon may have seemed liked a bad case of déjà vu.

For the second year in a row, the Titans opened up the MIAA tournament on the road at Bishop Feehan High School in Attleboro. And for the second year in a row, the Shamrocks bounced them from the tournament 3-0.

The Titans struck first in all three matches, but had trouble putting strings of points together, scoring no

more than four in a row in the first set, which they lost 25-14.

“The first two games, our serving struggled,” head coach Dave Rix said. “We had five service errors in the first game, which was un-characteristic; we typically serve around 90 percent. I think they were just a little jacked up on adrenaline.”

The Titans had more trouble with Feehan’s strong serving in the second set, los-ing 25-11, but they refused to exit the tournament quietly. Pembroke played their best game in the third set, taking a lead, but Feehan’s power hit-ting was too much for the Ti-tans as they suffered a game-ending 25-22 loss to wrap up

their season. “Bishop Feehan has got

some serious hitters and we didn’t have the blockers to do anything about it,” Rix said. “We played the best defense we could and I’m proud of our girls for fighting and stay-ing in it. They never quit and I’m proud of them for that.”

Feehan’s depth also played a role in their win. The Shamrocks boasted

nearly triple the Titans’ ros-ter for the match. The Titans also played without starting middle Alana Atchison and senior Rachel Crovo, who both had the flu.

“We’re missing a few people and that hurt us a little bit,” Rix said. “Alana is big and strong in the middle, and we needed that defensively. Rachel also plays well de-fensively, and that was a sub-

stitution we missed making. But we did what we could.Sara Short stepped into the middle in Alana’s spot and did a did a great job.”

The match was the last for captains Meagan Hall and Lisa Higgins, as well as fellow senior Tricia Stacy, all of whom Rix said will be missed. The Titans will have a strong net game next sea-son with Atchison, Short and junior outside hitter Lauren Tressel as well as setter Bay Edwards and libero Katie Wandell each coming back for their third season on var-sity. So much returning talent has Rix hopeful that the Ti-tans will have another crack at the tournament next sea-son.

“We are incredibly young,” he said. “I couldn’t be more proud of our young girls for fighting hard today. We’re in a situation where we have some talent, and especially over the next few years we have something to look forward to.”
