Hudsons First Baptist Church has a new pastor

and they held a ceremony on Sunday evening to
make it ofcial. The First Baptist Church was 200
years old in 2005, which makes the beautiful,
white church in the original center of Hudson 209
years old today. When the Hudson First Baptist
Church was celebrating its 65th year in 1870, Baptist
missionaries Rev. Dr. and Mrs. E. W. Clark traveled
to Nagaland, India, to bring Christianity to that small
corner of world, where they began their work in what is
now the largest Christian country in the world.
The coming of Pastor Moa Imchen and his family to First
Baptist Church of Hudson, NH is a remarkable story. It is a
story of the faithful coming full circle. Both Rev. Moa Imchen
and his wife Akum Longcharare are the results (while several
generations removed) of the work and teaching of those American
Baptist missionaries in Nagaland. Now, God, in his amazing way,
is bringing Rev. Moa as spiritual leaders to serve at First Baptist
Church of Hudson, NH.
Now, we invite you to meet the Reverend Moa Imchen, who
was installed as the Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Hudson
on Sunday amid hymns of faith, greetings and blessings from
pastors from four different states, but who have passports with
many different stamps from many different countries. All knew
Rev. Imchen and talked about serving God and bring His word to
others.
A Very Special Calling
Rev. Moa Imchen and his family came from San Francisco to Hudson in July of
2014. Moas educational preparation for ministry began at Eastern Theological
College in India. Moa taught Old Testament and biblical languages at a seminary
in India before coming to Union Theological Seminary, in New York. It was
here that he studied for his Master of Sacred Theology in Hebrew Bible. He
is nishing up his Ph.D. dissertation in biblical studies, specializing in Old
Testament at the Graduate Theological Union, Berkeley, CA.
He was ordained at First Chinese Baptist Church of San Francisco in 2010. He
served as English Pastor at the Chinese United Methodist Church in San Francisco
beginning in September 2009 and led his last ofcial worship service there on
April 20, 2014. He also served as Assistant Minister at First Baptist Church,
Antioch, CA from 2004-2006. Besides his church ministry, he also taught biblical
Hebrew at San Francisco Theological Seminary, San Anselmo, CA, from 2006 to
2009. He also has been engaged in preaching ministry at several other churches
in the Bay area.
When asked about nding his career in service to God, the Reverend had a
very different story. His parents were the proud parents of four girls. However, in
Nagaland, having a son was very important in the social system of their land. His
parents went to the tribal elders and asked them to pray to
God for a son - with the promise that if God granted them
a son they would make sure he went into the ministry
and dedicate his live to teaching the word of God. He
was born with his career path chosen for him. Today he
will admit it has worked out, but he has many stories
about testing his faith as he grew up with the things
that most young men try. But, in the nal analysis, he
always was brought back to God.
Moa, who possesses excellent communication
skills, explained his work he experienced straight
from the seminary. He encountered drug abusers and
troublemakers on the streets of Nagaland. It was here
that he learned to work with people and reinforced how
important Gods message is to everyone. He had to wear
Converse sneakers and t-shirts and jeans to get them talk
to him. But while the church fathers werent real happy
with his work, he continued and helped many people
with their struggles.
While this story needs to be wrapped up neatly so we
can get this paper to press, it really has no ending except
to say, Welcome to Hudson. To learn more about
Nagaland and the work of the missions there visit www.
rstbaptisthudson.com and go to the pastor page.
Rev. Dr. Bertha A. Perkins, pastor of NW Fellowship Baptist in Nashua, who
was a pastor at First Baptist many years ago, ofers congratulations to Rev. Moa.
Te blessing from the new pastor, Rev. Moa Imchen, at the end of the installation.

Hudson School Superintendent Bryan Lane has advised the
Hudson School Board that he passed all the requested budget
increases on without making any changes.
As a result spending is up 4.6 percent while revenues will
be down. He was, unfortunately, not able to give the school
board a gure for the amount that taxes would go up as a result
of both actions. Instead he discussed how much the increased
spending would increase the tax rate, but failed to include how
much the decreasing revenues would impact the tax rate. Thus
a complete overall picture was not presented for the school
boards initial review.
With school enrollments declining, revenues will decline.
State aid is based on a per pupil assessment so declining
revenues will always result in fewer adequacy dollars.
However, a stipend is paid for every special education student
so when that population grows, revenues will also grow with
both state and federal support based on per pupil assessments.
Lane wrote, We are anticipating a decrease in revenue of
$870,668, noting that this would result in a $ .34 increase per
thousand of assessment to tax payers.
The presented budget is $51,150,723, which is an increase of
$2,239,529. Lane did not present expected enrollments for the
school year so it is impossible to calculate how much spending
per pupil has changed. Nor did he make any academic
assessment on the proposed increases and said that the
materials presented represent no reductions from the budgets
proposed by the principals or SAU staff.
This will leave rst the board and then the Budget Committee
in the difcult position of making academic assessments that
used to be made by superintendents and principals in initial
budget reviews.
The only recognition that Lane made of the shrinking
enrollments was, We are looking to nd ways to consolidate
positions and hire full-time staff which, in the long run, will be a
cost savings. Instead he said that staff had been added.
Although Lane said that for the rst time, we are budgeting
for tuition for students who are court-placed and for students
with 504 plans who do not fall under the special education
umbrella, his predecessor always included court-placed tuition
and 504 plan expenses into the budget. Apparently this will be
a rst since Lane became superintendent. In fact, under Bell
a Capital Reserve Trust Fund was set up to cover unbudgeted
special education needs, which would cover tuition for a
student not in district during budget time.
Lane said the increase in salaries would account for an
increase of $ .49 per thousand on the tax rate and noted the
total salary and benet increase in this years budget was
$1,266,953. Utilities are also expected to go up and Lane said
that increase accounted for $ .07 per thousand on the tax rate.
Aging computers and equipment plus a request to paint the SAU
building at a cost of $31,000 are also included.
All of this will need careful consideration by the school
board, who will also need to calculate why school budgets are
increasing more than the ination rate while student population
shrinks. It will be a difcult budget year again.

A beautiful stone bench sits outside the
vocational wing at Alvirne High School. On
Tuesday, on a rainy autumn New England
afternoon, the spirit of the FFA students and their
mentors from the school was unbridled, authentic
excitement.
Emery Pierre Booska was a lifelong advocate for
education and all forms of agriculture. From 1956
to 1967, Booska was the Vocational Agriculture
Instructor, Farm Manager and Vocational Programs
Supervisor at Alvirne High School. During his
tenure he was the advisor for the Alvirne Chapter
of the Future Farmers of America.
After his leadership at Alvirne, he continued to
be involved with the FFA at the state and national
level. As a judge and as an instrumentally valuable
fund raiser, he was honored with a National FFA
Lifetime Achievement Award in 2011.
This memorial was organized by Roger Pellerin,
a former Alvirne agricultural program student.
Pellerin states he heard of Mr. Booskas death
which led to working with Alvirne Principal Steve
Beals with regards to the bench design, engraving
and placement of honor of the memorial stone
bench at the school. Words cannot do justice to
the bench that Pellerin produced at his company,
Gate City Monuments. Once the proper location
at the school was determined, workers from Gate
City Monuments arrived to expertly install the
bench. When one sits on the bench, the expansive
sweep of the farm buildings, cattle yard, the elds
and woodland beautifully and gracefully viewed
before you. Beals, in addressing those gathered,
spoke about growing up in Hudson and coming
to see the cows as part of his family trips. As a
student at Alvirne, he learned the importance of
agricultural education. Now as principal of the
A Very Fitting Memory to Emery Booska
Principal Steve Beals, Suzanne Booska and FFA student with the Booska
memorial bench donated by Roger Pellerin of Gate City Monuments.
Emery Booskas widow, Suzanne,
is overwhelmed when she unveils
the bench in her husbands memory.
Assisting and supporting her is
Elizabeth Craig of the Alvirne
Veterinary Science program.
Te view from the new Emery Pierre
Booskas memorial bench
school, he learned how very special, rewarding and inspiring the vocational programs are
to many students. He noted that the bench location will allow many more to see the great
expanse that these programs offer.
Manny Catala, the FFA State President, spoke passionately about Booskas legacy to the
guests assembled. He is a senior at the University of New Hampshire, in their Agricultural
program. Catala was accompanied by Future Farmers of Americas State Secretary Maria
Daneault, who is a student at New Hampshire Technical Institute in Concord.
Catala spoke of Booskas spirited advocacy, love and dedication to the vocational
studies and how his work had impacted the students he worked with. Perhaps one
of Booskas more notable and memorable legacies include the 600 current state FFA
members who walk on the foundation that Booska laid.

Get Back On My Feet You'll Be Sorry). Julia Blogs About How She Overcame Adversity
With Choice, Attitude, And Purpose As Well As Her Stroke, Recovery,
Patient Perspective, And Life Lessons Using Humor To Cope.
Speaking from the patients perspective, she espouses the value of quality
patient care. It is important to illuminate the issues patients face beyond their
illness. Doctors, as they treat the medical condition, must remember that their
patients are individuals with unique personalities who deserve to be treated as
well with dignity and respect. She also speaks to patient advocacy and community
outreach groups where she shares her story of personal triumph against
overwhelming odds.
Some of the key points Julia makes to these audiences include:
Ways to improve the doctor/patient relationship
Importance of positive attitude and laughter in overcoming adversity
Medical diagnosis must take into account the patients intuition as well as the
science
Patient focus vs. disease focus delivers better recovery results
Objectives:
Participants will gain insights to health care from the patients perspective
Participants will learn how a positive atmosphere contributes to recovery
Participants will identify strategies for integrating humanity into the science of
medicine
Participants will better understand the medical professional/patient partnership

The steam railroad crossed the Merrimack River into
Hudson just south of what is now Veterans Memorial
Bridge as you cross from Nashua into Hudson. It then
made a path easterly and slightly north through Hudson.
The tracks crossed Lowell Road at Central Street and then
on to Hudson Center and West Windham. The one railroad
station in town was at Hudson Center just off Greeley
Street and behind the Town Hall (now Wattannick Hall).
In this 1896 photo we are standing on the tracks near the
station looking west along the tracks and the Greeley Street
crossing. The corner of the station house can just be seen
in the right of the photo. Greeley Street is a narrow dirt
road and the area on the opposite side of Greeley appears
as a wooded area or eld. Today there are few reminders
of the railroad bed. The area on the left is now the parking
lot of the Baptist Church and the area on the right is
the Greeley Street playground. Photo from the Hudson
Historical Society collection and courtesy of Len Lathrop.

Eagle Scout Candidate Frank Cunniff, accompanied by Boy Scout Leader Joe
Undercoffer, explained the work done on his now completed Eagle project. First I held
a fundraiser at Lions Hall. Then we built the ve dog agility apparatus equipment off-site
and then nally, we installed it in the dog park.
Cunniff said that the equipment included a dog walk, a tire jump, weaving poles, a
hurdle and a seesaw. He reported that it took a lot of man hours to install the equipment.
When Selectman Ben Nadeau commented that the site of the dog park used to be a
parking lot and there were lots of rocks buried, Cunniff reported that they dug only with
hand tools and that they had encountered a lot of rock.
Selectmen unanimously accepted the donation of the equipment valued at $485.
Board of Selectmen Chairman Roger Coutu said he had been at the dog park and seen
dogs using the equipment.

Ulery Working with Dartmouth
on Criminal Costs Project
submitted by Jordan Ulery
Represent Ulery is working with the Policy
Research Shop of the Nelson D. Rockefeller
Center at Dartmouth College on the costs of
incarceration in the New Hampshire State Prison
system. A team of students under the direction
of Visiting Assistant Professor Matthew Cravens
is using a previously introduced bill which Ulery
Co-Sponsored with Senator Sharon Carson to
attempt to control the costs of imprisonment as
a starting point. That bill was held for Interim
Study and needed additional information.
The introduction of the bill was an attempt
to bring to light the high costs associated with
imprisonment and seek alternatives said Ulery
of his support. Ulery commented that while
New Hampshire is ranked as one of the safest
States in the nation, we have some of highest costs per person.
That is an area that can and should be addressed.
The students in the project hail from as far away as Korea, but
include folks from Memphis and Ft. Lauderdale as well. Ulery will
bring his work in Criminal Justice in the past, recommendations
from fellow legislators, association with Right On Crime think tank
[http://www.rightoncrime.com/the-conservative-case-for-reform/
statement-of-principles/ ]and his participation in ALEC to the
task. The Research Group will examine alternative approaches
to incarceration that have reduced costs in Hawaii and Texas.
Perhaps more importantly, such approaches have reduced
recidivism and thus criminal activity in those states. Said Ulery,
It is hoped that the scholastic research of this group will develop
data to help New Hampshire reduce criminal behavior and reduce
what some estimate as the $33,000/per prisoner annual costs [
http://www.jailnation.com/nh/ ]. Armed with the data developed
and analyzed over the next few months effective legislation
supporting the goals of reducing recidivism and prison costs is
planned to be introduced by Ulery should he be re-elected.

The Hudson Fish and Game Junior
Rie Team put together a clinic in
September to teach 15 kids ages 10
through 16 about the NCAA and
Olympic sport of competitive rie
shooting. The team boasts some of
the nations top smallbore and air rie
talent. Members past and present are
national champions and own over 50
national records.
The rst night began with each coach
and current team member introducing
themselves and talked about who they
are, how long theyve been on the
team, and what theyve accomplished
while with the team.
The group were then given an
introduction to the sport of shooting,
teaching the safety rules, range
etiquette, parts of the rie, and an
explanation of the fundamentals of a
good shooting position. Next, the participants
were led into the range where four current
senior members each demonstrated a position
or discipline: Victoria DAmico of Bedford
demonstrated the prone position, Zachary
Wambsganss of Hudson demonstrated the
kneeling position, Bailey Urbach of Hudson
demonstrated the standing (also called offhand)
position, and Elizabeth Dutton of Derry
demonstrated the standing position with her
air rie. Afterwards, the juniors were coached
in shooting groups from the prone supported
position.
The next night, the juniors returned for a
review of the previous nights lessons and a
few more targets. Once their second round of
training with ve shot groups was complete,
the competition began. Each competitor would
receive one target, one coach,
and 20 minutes to shoot. The
competition was very tight among
the top ve with only 9 points
separating them including a tie for
second place.
Samuel Stratton may have been
the low scorer with a 33 before
coaches noticed that his sights were
loose! His brother Joshua had no
such trouble and posted a very
respectable 74. Kenneth Roundtree
red a 41, while Mason Jeffery and
Christian Lorenzo both shot a 67.
Owen Casciotti red a 70. Ashlee
Gibson, despite a broken foot
edged past Casciotti with a score
of 71. Caige Frost edged out the
elder Stratton by a point, ring a 75. Cooper
Moran nished 5th overall with a 77. The
battle for the third and fourth spot came down
to the Roessling brothers Paul and the younger
Heinrich. Heinrich bested his elder brother by
a point to take the third-place trophy posting a
score of 80 to his brothers 79. Jillian St. Onge
relied on a tiebreaker to lift her over the younger
Roessling to hold on to the second-place trophy.
The nights champion, David Wikman, made no
doubts about his rights to the rst-place trophy
with a dominating score of 86!
Some of the clinic attendees will be joining
the team to carry on the tradition of safe and
responsible rearm use in a competitive and
fun setting. Many thanks to all of the teams
coaches and members who helped run the
clinic as well as the continued support of the
Hudson Fish and Game Club.

Genuine Concerns Lead To Honest Skepticism
Folks can make up their own minds regarding the text of the Cornwall
declaration.
We believe Earth and its ecosystems created by Gods intelligent design
and infnite power and sustained by His faithful providence (emphasis
mine) are robust, resilient, self-regulating, and self-correcting, admirably
suited for human fourishing, and displaying His glory. Earths climate
system is no exception.
Oxford defnes Divine Providence as: the protective care of god or of
nature. Its fairly plain. Signatories believe that Earths climate is under
Gods protection. So, either signatories believe that God will care for and
protect the climate for our fourishing, or they dont. If the conclusion is
that God will take care of it, then what evidence could be shown that hasnt
already been produced in the scientifc literature that would convince the
signatories that we might need to start actually doing something.
Tere is a place for honest skepticism in all things, including
anthropogenic global warming (AGW). In my opinion, scientists are
generally skeptics. You will rarely hear one speak in absolutes but rather in
terms of what is more or less likely. Skeptics keep things honest. Skeptics
dont misrepresent data. Tere are genuine concerns regarding a small
portion of the data in the scientifc literature, but when all of the data
is taken as a whole, it tells a diferent story than the one Mr. DAleo is
trying to tell. Tis graph below is the whole graph that Joseph DAleo
misrepresented in the October 3rd issue of the HLN, curiously showing the
start in the late 90s.
(Source data for the graph can be found here http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/
data/temperature/)
As far as the claim that I exaggerated my position regarding the
overwhelming consensus in the scientifc community. I stand by the claim.
Tere have been several studies published in respected science journals,
Dorann, Zimmerman 2011, Anderegg et al 2010, Cook et al 2013, and
others . Im not even convinced that there is a need for a consensus. In any
case, Mr. DAleo seems to think there is a worldwide conspiracy.
Again, for a good no nonsense discussion of the misinformation presented
by both sides of the AGW argument and how the media adds to the
confusion, please see http://tinyurl.com/ljrryu3.

Enough Is Enough!
One of our most valued rights is the 1st Amendment, Freedom of Speech.
I have read the constitution and nowhere in there is Freedom of Ignorance
listed.
Every Friday, like most Hudson residents, I head to the mailbox to grab
the HLN. Like most Hudson residents, I head straight for the comic
section. I mean Tumbs up, Tumbs Down. For the last two years I have
had to put up with people constantly bashing Alvirne Principal Steve Beals.
Last week I fnally had enough. If Steve knew I was writing this letter he
would have forced me to hit delete.
Most of the things that have been written have been downright lies and
misinformation. I had twins graduate from the high school last year and
we would laugh at some of the things that were written, which they knew
to be untrue. I fnd it comical that people will drop anonymous notes to
bash someone in the paper. So I guess this letter is written on behalf of all
the people, most who give their time to this town free of charge and look for
nothing in return, as well. I am not saying that you cant disagree with the
way things are, but if you do, be an adult about it and sign your name!
Tis may sound corny, but Steve and his family are one of the jewels of
this town. He grew up here, went to school here, married his sweetheart
here, raised his family here, and was over the moon when his dream job
came available. He was chosen as principle of Alvirne for a reason. Tere
is nobody more dedicated to the well being of the students at Alvirne than
Steve. Everything he does has their best interest at heart.
I have coached with him on the baseball feld for the last two years and I
fully admit he can be a little left of center sometimes but he gets through to
the kids and they are better for having him. As a matter of fact, he recently
flled in for the JV Soccer coach who was very ill, if he hadnt the game
would have been a forfeit. Te man exudes Bronco Pride and bleeds maroon
and gold.
As for being the highest paid bus driver ever, get your facts straight
before sending misinformed emails. Steve drives the Alvirne vocational kids
to Nashua to participate in programs. If he didnt bring them, they would
not be able to do so. He acquired a CDL license with his own money to
drive the bus and by doing so, saves the taxpayers of Hudson money. If you
were interested in the job, it was posted, but nobody applied! Please before
sending another nasty thumbs down, keep in mind that he has children that
are being raised here, and going to school here and if you have kids they
are probably classmates. Hopefully they dont ever read the Comics. Do
you sit around the dinner table and say to your kids yeah, I wrote that? I
doubt it!
I am proud and honored to call Steve Beals and his family my friends and
friends of my family. We should all be so lucky to know such fne people.
As I see it, all he is guilty of is being a little left of center... but arent we all?
Charlie Huggins, Hudson
What Tis Election Is About
President Obama himself put it quite clearly, this election is about my
policies. So, lets take a brief look at some of those policies and their results.
Lets start with the Obama economic policies. Tey are typical of a
left wing Democrat, consisting of strangulating regulation, higher taxes
and looser welfare distributions. Te results are also typical. Today, we
have 46 million Americans on food stamps. While the unemployment
rate has dropped to below 6 percent, that statistic is extremely deceptive.
Unemployment has dropped, not because of robust job creation but simply
because people who want to work but have become discouraged are not
counted as unemployed. Also, 7 million of us who want full time jobs could
only fnd part time work. However, these underemployed workers do not
show up on that dubious statistic, either. Are you better of now than you
were 6 years ago? Im not and I doubt you are, either.
Lets look at the Obama foreign policy. Obama was handed a pacifed
and peaceful Iraq and promptly and wrongly withdrew all American troops,
snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Now, ISIS, a terrorist group even
worse than Al Queida, has flled that vacuum, taking over a huge portion of
that country, threatening even Bagdad itself. Russia became emboldened,
seized Crimea and threatens the rest of Ukraine. America has become
the laughing stock of its enemies and a questionable partner to her allies.
America is no longer respected in the world as a reliable defender of freedom.
Lets look at the Obama administration, itself. Te Justice Department
has given guns to the drug cartels, directly resulting in American deaths. Te
IRS has unlawfully targeted Obamas political opponents. Te VA has tried
to cover up its ill-treatment of our vets. Te NSA, despite direct denials, is
spying on American citizens. Our borders have become a wide open, come-
one, come-all free for all. Despite knowing about the Ebola epidemic since
March, the CDC has failed to prepare America for it. To this day, Obama
refuses to stop commercial travel between the US and West Africa, putting
political correctness ahead of public safety. On and on it goes, scandal after
scandal, lie after lie.
Finally, lets take a look at what Obama calls his trademark achievement,
Obamacare. What has happened to your healthcare costs since Obamacare
was enacted? Mine have nearly doubled! Why? If you are a couple or a
woman in your 60s, you are now forced to pay for maternity coverage you
dont need. Perfectly stable people are forced to pay for mental health and
drug addiction coverage they will never use. Te deductibles are so high,
fling claims is a farce. All this the Supreme Court calls a tax that Obama
many times promised he would never foist upon the middle class. Lets not
forget the most egregious lie of them all, if you like your doctor, you can
keep your doctor, period!
President Obama wants your vote as a referendum on his policies and I
urge you all to comply. If you are happy with the above, by all means, vote
for Jeanne Shaheen and the Democrats. As their record shows, they will
continue to support these ruinous policies to the hilt. But if you want to
send Obama a message that you are as unhappy with his polices as I am, then
vote for Scott Brown and the Republicans. Are the Republicans perfect? No,
not by a long shot. But at the very least, they are by far the lesser of two evils.
Andrew Levin, Hudson
Who Would You Rather See in the Majority?
In 2010 we succumbed to Tea Party propaganda and sent to Concord a
Republican majority led by the extremist Bill O Brien. OBrien claims that
under his leadership the budget was reduced by 9.2 percent but the cuts
attached to the reductions became absorbed by the cities and towns, pushing
up property taxes. Historically, in New Hampshire, our communities share
some revenues with the state. Te towns of Hudson and Pelham rely on this
sharing to maintain infrastructure, to support education and to sustain the
environmental health of our towns. Te state always has been a partner with
municipalities in the NH Retirement System through paying a portion of
the costs of retirement.
Te legislature, under the leadership of OBrien, downshifted costs to the
towns by eliminating the state contribution to the NH Retirement System.
Tis amounts to around $125 million dollars over the two year biennium
(2012-2013 budget). Te Republican majority under OBriens lead failed
to reinstate state revenue sharing ($50 million over the biennium) and the
lack of state aid grants to communities for water and waste water treatment
($8.8 million). Downshifting those expenses is hurting local communities
and costing jobs at the same time.
Te argument to justify the reductions cites the slow recovery following
the Bush-era recession, but this argument does not explain why the OBrien-
led legislature reduced revenue sources. Just one example of balancing the
budget at the expense of our communities was the reduction of ten cents per
pack on cigarettes, leading to a loss of $20 million in state revenues. On the
last couple of years a more pragmatic, Democratic legislature worked closely
with Republican leadership to craft the budget in a bi-partisan manner
improving the conditions for our communities. Included was a Medicaid
expansion that will cover healthcare to more than 50,000 of the citizens of
the Granite State, recovering around $2 billion of our own tax dollars paid
to the federal government. Medicaid expansion reduces the pressure of the
uninsured on our hospitals and on local welfare budgets. State aid grants for
water and waste water infrastructure have been reinstated, as has the funding
for the Land and Community Heritage Investment program, rendering
more than $8 million to our communities over the present biennium.
So, who would you rather see in the majority? Tose who cut taxes while
downshifting costs to our towns, or those who understand that economic
growth comes from a partnership between the state and communities?

Memorial Library will be hosting two

Poor Howard Stith at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m.

barrelhouse blues for over 40 years. He has
performed across the U.S., Europe and Japan,
entertaining audiences in coffeehouses, bars and
at festivals with his dazzling guitar, heartfelt voice,
and seemingly endless supply of anecdotes, puns
and shaggy dog stories. Poor Howards blues style
is drawn from the tradition of Huddie Ledbetter
(Leadbelly) and Blind Willy McTell, incorporating
a powerful bass line along with ashy nger-
picking, his guitar style and poignant vocals
can carry the listener into the world of rowdy
barrelhouses or into the eld at the end of a long
day of weeding crops. This is sure to be a concert
to remember. Rodgers Memorial Library, 194

and Steve Gannon, 25 Years of Service; Tim
Kearns, 30 Years of Service; Clint Weaver, 35 Years
of Service; Ed Shiebler, 40 Years of Service; and
John Abbott, 50 Years of Service.
Chief Robert Buxton presented three awards to
Dave Hebert, Jen Reil and Dave Cormier.
The rst award was presented by the Chief was
to Inspector David Hebert, an individual who
consistently exhibits excellent job performance,
who regularly shows concern for others, who
is always willing to assist to meet the needs
of the community, who has worked diligently
at maintaining their workload - all the while
pursuing training to assist the departments vision.
This person often can be found working behind
the scenes, assisting other divisions of the Town
of Hudson. He is always willing to utilize his past
experiences to help the community.
Chief Buxtons second award was presented
to a leader in the organization who has shown
the ability to lead with a belief in teamwork,
professionalism, integrity and dedication to our
purpose as a group.
This person can often be found as being the
rst to offer their support to an initiative as well
as offer their criticism or input when requested.
This individual represents the organization
with great pride and was one of the
principle parties to accomplish the
chiefs number one goal last year,
which was to successfully negotiate a
collective bargaining agreement with
HFD greatest assets - the employees.
This was accomplished through a lot of
trust, transparency and effort on the part
of all parties, but this individual carried
their effort from the negotiation room to
the re house helping to develop a new
level of trust within the organization.
The Chief took a moment to thank this
individual for their hard work.
He said, I am proud to present
this Fire Chiefs Award to Fireghter
David Cormier for his hard work and
dedication to the Town of Hudson and
the Hudson Fire Department.
The third Chief award was presented
to Executive Secretary Jennifer Riel, who
was recognized as being an integral part of the
organization. Prior to Jennifers employment with
the Hudson Fire Department, her understanding
of what the HFD did was limited to processing
the nancial needs. Since her arrival, said
the Chief, She has assisted with modernizing
our administrative practices, become an active
member of the Hudson Fire Departments Relief
Association and has made it possible for the Fire
Chief to stay focused on achieving our goals.
Jennifer is not afraid to share her view on a topic
or advocate for a position on a topic. Again, I
would like to thank this employee for their hard
work and dedication.
The presentations continued as Todd Berube
received Fireghter of the Year from the Lions
Club Award.
Dr. James Martin of Saint Joseph Hospital
was presented the Dr. David Connor Award
for his assistance and training with the Hudson
Paramedic and EMT service. This honor was
presented by Lieutenant Michelle Rudolph, EMS
Supervisor.
Josh Hansen was presented the Citizens Service
Award from Chief Buxton for his work at the re
stations and his ability to keep everyone on their
toes, including the Chief!
Jeremy Dowd was presented the Explorer of the
Year Award. Jeremy is a junior at Alvirne High
School and is in his second year as a Fire Explorer.
His mother mentioned that ever since a Big Truck
day in Hudson where Jeremy climbed through
a re engine, it has been a constant theme in
this life. She spoke about the program and the
positive inuence that Captain Morin has on the
scouts.
Captain Morin announced the Explorer ofcers
for the next year, the scouts are put thought the
same procedures that a professional reghter
would see when seeking a promotion. Dylan
Conway was promoted to the rank of Explorer
Chief, Explorer Patrick Bue was promoted to the
rank of Explorer Captain, Explorer Jeremy Dowd
was promoted to the rank of Explorer Lieutenant,
and Explorer Devin Carol was promoted to the
rank of Explorer Lieutenant.
Chief Buxton closed the ceremony with the
following statement: I would like to thank the
members of the Awards committee for making
this night possible and congratulate our award
recipients. It has been said that you should
choose a job you love, and you will never have to
work a day in your life. I believe this to be true
and for the last twenty plus years do not believe,
as hard as it may be at times, that I have had to
work yet.

Dry
Mouth, also
called
xerostomia,
results from
an
inadequate
flow of
saliva.
When
salivary flow
is reduced intraoral soft
tissues may become irritated,
inflamed and more
susceptible to infection.
Without the cleaning and
buffering properties of
adequate salivary flow,
bacteria can thrive resulting
in increased tooth decay
and periodontal disease.
Denture stability also
decreases since the thin film
of saliva that allows for
proper denture adhesion is
absent.
Xerostomia affects a
variety of individuals,
including; older adults,
individuals with certain
diseases such as diabetes and
leukemia, and those receiving
radiation therapy to the head
and neck region.
A major cause of dry mouth
is the use of certain
medication. there are several
hundred commonly
prescribed and over the
counter medications that
produce literature
accompanying the
medication, or consulting with
your physician, pharmacist or
dentist may provide valuable
insight whether dryness is a
side effect.
Taking excellent care of your
teeth and tissues is critical if
you have xerostomia to
prevent dental disease. Use of
sugarless lozenges to stimulate
salivary flow, artificial saliva, or
fluoride rinses may be
necessary to reduce the
effects caused by long term
decreased saliva production.

A Spooky Good Time with Jeff Belanger
DAR Welcomes Schools
to Participate in Essay Contest
Fall Open House at Applewild
Hudson Candidate for State Senate
by Laurie A. Jasper
It was a dark and stormy night
perfect for the Hudson Historical
Societys program: A Supernatural
Evening with Jeff Belanger. On
Thursday, October 16, at Alvirne High
Schools Checkers Restaurant, well-
known explorer of the unexplained
Jeff Belanger presented highlights
from his adventures investigating,
researching and writing about
ghosts, aliens and urban legends.
His entertaining style of storytelling
made for spooky good fun for those
in the audience. He began his talk
about Rathcroghan Cave in County
Roscommon, Ireland. Where
Halloween was born, said Jeff. It
was believed that the dead would
return during Samhain, which was
the Gaelic end of the summer and
beginning of the darker days that pre-
dated what is now known as Halloween. In order to
confuse the spirits, people began to dress up in costume
to stay safe. There are more ghosts around in October-
only because were paying more attention, said Jeff.
Areas of local legend include Americas Stonehenge in
Salem, the Windham Restaurant in Windham, and the
Mount Washington Hotel. He also shared interesting
accounts from his childrens book,
Whos Haunting the White House?
and mentioned famous legends
including those made into movies
such as The Amityville Horror and the
more recent Annabelle.
Jeff is the author of over a dozen
books and is the Emmy-nominated
host, producer and writer of the PBS
show New England Legends, the
writer and researcher for the Travel
Channels Ghost Adventures, and the
host of 30 Odd Minutes. He is also
a very popular guest and lecturer,
especially at this time of year.
Jeff denes a ghost as, The past
coming to the present, and has
had his own encounters, dating
back to his younger days growing
up in Connecticut. The audience
wondered if perhaps a playful spirit
had intervened that very evening in
Hudson, when Jeffs audio and video feeds suddenly
stopped working, and his back up equipment wouldnt
work, either. History is a ghost story, Jeff reminded the
audience. What do you think?

Applewild School will hold its fall admission
Open House on Saturday, November 15 at 1
p.m. Families interested in the kindergarten
through grade 8 program or the preschool and pre-
kindergarten programs at either the Fitchburg and
Devens, MA locations are invited to pre-register at
www.applewild.org/preregister.
The Open House will include student-led
campus tours and hands-on class activities with
Applewild teachers. Participants will experience
what its like to learn at Applewild and meet
teachers, administrators and Applewild parents.
An informal child-friendly reception with healthy
snacks will conclude the event.
Students come to Applewild from 32 different
communities in central Massachusetts and
southern New Hampshire. Transportation is
available to the campus at 120 Prospect St. in
Fitchburg. The new Applewild at Devens facility
serves as a transportation hub and after-school
program for K-8 students attending the school in
Fitchburg, a convenience for families living east
of the main campus. There is an after-school
program on the main campus as well.
Applewild offers two preschool and pre-
kindergarten programs. At the main campus,
families with children 2.9 to age 5 can enroll the
year-round program at the Child Development
Center at Applewild. The same program is offered
at Applewild at Devens, 27 Jackson Rd. in Devens.
Both preschools offer a curriculum-based program
with pricing in line with other quality preschools
in the area.
Admission and Financial Aid Director Jen Wing
is happy to answer questions about all aspects of
the Applewild program, including the Affordability
Initiative, designed to make an Applewild
education affordable to more families. Limited
scholarships are available in addition to nancial
aid. She can be contacted at (978) 342-6053, ext.
110 or at jwing@applewild.org.
Kate Messner, long term
resident of Hudson, announces
her run for State Senate, District
14. She ran in 2012 and won
41percent of the vote and is
looking for that last 10 percent
this time around. A well-rounded
professional whose experience
is primarily in small high tech
companies, Kate comes with a
great deal of real world business
experience. When asked to
select her top three issues, Kate
chooses: Campaign nance
reform, healthcare for all and
education. (Besides jobs, of
course, as that is understood as paramount.)
Disturbed by the amount of money needed to run for ofce, she
brought forward the recent ballot initiative on getting money out of
politics which won in our March elections. She has also been active
in NH Rebellion (see NHrebellion.org), a group which is committed
to ending corruption in campaign nancing. I do believe this is the
single greatest problem facing our democracy today, she says.
Kate remembers how mobilized people were several years ago
when it was quite common to see t-shirts with I am a healthcare
voter printed on them. There was an enormous groundswell
of support for healthcare for all. Now, those who oppose the
Affordable Care Act have painted it with a very broad black brush
says Kate; and While there is no doubt that there is room for
improvement, there is no reason to scrap the entire Act and go back
to where we were before, where tens of thousands of Granite Staters
were without care.
Having raised four children, all in successful careers at this time,
Kate is well aware of the role that the quality of education her kids
received has a whole lot to do with their current career achievement.
We need more young people in our state, and that begins with
providing help for higher education and allowing for the renancing
of student loans, she states.
As a newcomer, Kate brings a fresh approach to politics. She
prides herself in working effectively with all different types of people
regardless of race, religion, education or socio-economic status.
She believes strongly in the power of the average person to be the
change they want to see.
I am so very grateful for those in the community who have spent
time talking with me over the last several weeks, and look forward to
continued contact with these, and many more, Kate concludes.

Jackson, Pancreatic
Cancer Awareness
Network
The month of
November has been
ofcially proclaimed
as Pancreatic Cancer
Awareness Month by
the Town of Litcheld
complete with a
proclamation from
Town Administrator
Jason Hoch which
was presented to
Connie Jackson.
We appreciate their
support along with
the City of Nashua
who also issued a
proclamation.
Pancreatic Cancer
Facts:
An estimated
46,420 Americans
will be diagnosed
with pancreatic
cancer in the U.S., and over 39,590
will die from the disease.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the few
cancers for which survival has not
improved substantially over nearly
40 years.
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth
leading cause of cancer-related death
in the United States.
Pancreatic cancer has the highest
mortality rate of all major cancers.
Ninety-four percent of pancreatic
cancer patients will die within ve
years of diagnosis only 6 percent
will survive more than ve years.
Seventy-four percent of patients die
within the rst year of diagnosis.
The average life expectancy after
diagnosis with metastatic disease is
just three to six months.
Few risk factors for developing
pancreatic cancer are dened.
Family history of the disease,
smoking, age, and diabetes are risk
factors.
Pancreatic cancer may cause only
vague symptoms that could indicate
many different conditions within the
abdomen or gastrointestinal tract.
Symptoms include pain (usually
abdominal or back pain), weight
loss, jaundice (yellowing of the skin
and eyes), loss of appetite, nausea,
changes in stool, and diabetes.
Treatment options for pancreatic
cancer are limited. Surgical removal
of the tumor is possible in less than
20 percent of patients diagnosed with
pancreatic cancer. Chemotherapy or
chemotherapy together with radiation
is typically offered to patients whose
tumors cannot be removed surgically.
Pancreatic cancer is a leading
cause of cancer death largely
because there are no detection tools
to diagnose the disease in its early
stages when surgical removal of the
tumor is still possible.
The National Cancer Institute spent
an estimated $105.3 million on
pancreatic cancer research in 2012.
This represented a mere 1.8 percent
of the NCIs approximate $5.8 billion
cancer research budget for that year.
Its time to pay attention to this
cancer. On October 26, the NH
Chapter of Pan Can will be presenting
a *Purple Light* event at Veterans
Park in Manchester. This event will
include food, special guests, speakers
and remembrances of loved ones
who have passed from Pancreatic
Cancer and celebrating those who
have beaten the odds! Look for the
Purple Lights on Elm Street.

Litchfeld Declares November
to be Pancreatic Cancer
Awareness Month
by Adam Therrien, Litcheld Middle School
On September 23, the sixth graders at Litcheld
Middle School went on a trip they would never
forget. They left their families for four days to
embark on an ultimate adventure experience at
Natures Classroom in Charlton, Massachusetts.
Natures Classroom is a place where there are
no electronics, just nature. The sixth graders
enjoyed nature hikes through Natures Classroom
property, participated in classes on dissection,
bottle rockets, bubbles, survival, camouage,
and much more. They joined in demonstrations
led by camp counselors that included a variety
of experiments, night hikes team work and team
building events. In between learning time and
meals, the students had transition time. This was
a time where they could play with their friends,
relax or read a book. During meals, students were
encouraged to not take more food than they could
eat because at the end of the meal the counselors would collect any leftover
food and weigh it. This process was called Ort, and it was used to show the
students how much food can be wasted by not making smart food choices
and by not eating wisely. At the end of the day, students enjoyed a quiet sing.
This was the time when the counselors would play guitar and sing three songs.
After that, it was off to the dorms to get ready for bed and a good nights sleep.
The students enjoyed getting to know the counselors and appreciated
all of the time and effort it took for them to make Natures Classroom the
best experience possible. The sixth grade would like to thank the dads and
teachers who chaperoned the trip and made it possible. Thank you to Mr.
Snell, Mr. Pearl, Mr. Cavanagh and Mr. Therrien for taking time out of your
busy schedules to come with us to Natures
Classroom. Special thanks to Mrs. Sidlau,
Mrs. Langton, Mrs. Medieros, Mrs. Dwyer,
Ms. Durant, Ms. Martin, Mrs. Thayer, and Mrs.
Seiberg. Our trip will be an experience we will
always remember.

Bulletproof Vest
Requested
by Lynne Ober
Hudson Police Chief Jay Lavoie met with selectmen in order
to get approval to spend $905 from the Bullet Proof Vest Capital
Reserve Fund in order to purchase one vest. According to Lavoie,
a frequently worn bulletproof vest has a lifespan of about ve years
before it starts to deteriorate.
Lavoie explained that the Capital Reserve Fund was started back
in 2006 to 2008, so that vests could be replaced without asking for
a large capital purchase. We save a little each year to the Capital
Reserve Fund and then we can buy vests as we need them. Lavoie
also said that next year he expected to ask for a large re-order of
vests about 40. We buy them as we need them and, in this case,
we have a single vest, but next year will be a large order as we need
to replace worn vests.
Selectman Rick Maddox commented that the Capital Reserve
Fund was doing exactly what was intended. We save bit by
bit, and then we do not have to ask taxpayers for a large amount
for replacements. He was pleased to see the funds working
exactly as intended and to avoid a hit against the tax rate for such
replacements. We are taking little bites rather than asking for a
large expenditure.
Selectmen unanimously approved the request for the replacement
vest.

Daylight Donuts
The First Location in New England
Daylight Donuts was started by a couple in Tulsa,
Oklahoma, in 1954. Tommy and Lucille Day set
out to create a new kind of donut mix - one with a
distinctively light texture and avor. The light and
luscious donut recipe became Daylight Donuts.
Now after 60 years there are nearly 1,000 retail
outlets worldwide and is deliciously growing each
day.
Daylight Donuts of Hudson is the very rst New
England location. Up until now, they were mostly
found in the south and west.
Each day you can nd an assortment of freshly
made daily donuts, breakfast sandwiches, apple
fritters, Kolache (smoked sausage and cheese) and
so much more. When you try their own blend of
Daylight Donuts coffee you will surely agree; it is a
delicious, aromatic medium roast.
Owner James Pich has started ve Daylight
Donut stores from Texas, Alabama, Mississippi
across the country and now has opened one here,
in Hudson. We couldnt be happier about this
sweetest addition to our home town. Stop in to
Daylight Donuts and say hello. For a truly melt-in-
your-mouth experience, dont miss their signature
glazed donut holes.
To sweeten the deal and to tempt your tastebuds, when you buy
a dozen glazed donuts, you get a dozen glazed donut holes free.
Dont miss this tasty offer from Daylight Donuts, your sweet tooth
will thank you.

Annual PumpkinFest Draws a Big Crowd
by AJ Dickinson
The eighth Annual Kiwanis PumpkinFest
was held this past weekend starting on
Friday, October 17 through Sunday,
October 19. With the riots unfolding in
Keene, many New Hampshirites found
themselves seeking a more family friendly
festival to celebrate the fall festivities here
in Hudson. As what started out as a small
event behind what is now Soho at the
Kiwanis softball eld just eight years ago
has grown into a large carnival which now
is considered by some to give Old Home
Days a run for its money.
Visitors to the festival were able to enjoy
the variety of over 85 vendors, such as the
fan favorite Syds Big Apples of Merrimack,
who have been bringing delicious apple
treats to the event for the past four years.
Laurae English, owner of Syds, loves being
here almost as much as the locals love
her treats. She says, We really love the
atmosphere, love the kids, we love Trick
or Treating, plus fall is our favorite time
of year. As far as Pumpkin Fest goes, the
people are really great here, everyones
super nice and really friendly.
Over 25 local non-prots were proudly
represented, such as the Rotary Club,
Hudson Republicans, baseball and soccer
clubs, just to name a few.
Every year, Pumpkin Fest raises money
for high school scholarships for both
Alvirne and Campbell High Schools. The
schools themselves also came together
which contributed to the success of
creating such a well-rounded event. This
year, Alvirne seniors will receive $10,000
in scholarship money while Campbell
seniors will be receiving $5,000.
Families could be seen enjoying the
many fun carnival rides, the delicious
foods, decorating pumpkins, riding live
ponies and getting close up and personal
with the lovely and plentiful animals of the
petting zoo exhibit. The star of the petting
zoo had to be the vocal and not at all shy
donkey. Her overly dramatic and frequent
long-winded heehaws provided endless
peals of laughter from the young and the
young at heart who were hanging around
her stall.
Although the weather went from a
70-degree day on Friday to rain showers
on Saturday, locals were not deterred away
from the much-anticipated 20-minute
reworks display held at 8 p.m. on
Saturday night. This show was courtesy of
R.S. Fireworks of Hudson. The reworks
show always draws a big crowd. People
always come out for that, said Mike
Falzone, PumpkinFest organizer and
driving force behind the festival. Well
done, and a heartfelt thank you from
the community, Mr. Falzone. This years
Pumpkin Fest was a resounding success.

Comcasts Call Center Employs 100 With Room To Grow
by Len Lathrop
Early this spring, Comcast, in conjunction
with the town of Hudson, announced that
Comcast would be opening a call center at 55
Executive Drive. Last Friday, Comcast invited
New Hampshire and Hudson top ofcials to
a ribbon cutting at the new facility. On hand
was Matt Cohen, vice president of customer
care for Comcasts Greater Boston Region. He
announced that 100 employees were already
working at the facility and another 60 people
were being trained. Furthermore, Comcast
had projected that there will be at least 200
employees expected to also be hard at work by
the end of this year.
The 127,000 square foot facility in the
Presstek complex boasts a full-service business
technology suite, a tness center, a cafeteria,
outdoor walking trails and has the capacity to
house up to 600 employees.
Many state and local ofcials attended
the ribbon cutting, including Governor
Maggie Hassan, Senator Jeanne Shaheen,
Executive Councilor Debra Pignatelli,
Michael Bergeron of the State Department of
Resources and Economic Development, Town
of Hudson Selectmen, plus representatives
of both Hudson and Nashuas Chambers of
Commerce.
This reects innovation at all levels. This
building and its people represent Comcasts
commitment to New Hampshire, said
Governor Hassan.
Hassan also noted that competition from
other states was erce when the company
began looking for the perfect home for its
regional call center.
We worked closely with DRED
(Department of Resources and Economic
Development) to ensure New Hampshire was a
welcoming place for Comcast, she said. We
knew that it all needed to make sense from a
business point of view.
Following the ceremony, the group toured
the facility and had the ofcial ribbon cutting
in the actual call center facility.

Many people have been touched by breast cancer. Whether you
have dealt with your own diagnosis or that of a friend or family
member, the prevalence of breast cancer has left few people without
a story to tell about a personal experience with this potentially
deadly disease.
According to Breastcancer.org, a nonprot organization dedicated
to proving reliable, complete and up-to-date information about
breast cancer, roughly one in eight women in the United States will
develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her life, while the
Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation notes the gures are slightly
more optimistic in Canada, where one in nine women is expected to
develop the disease during her lifetime.
Many of the women who develop breast cancer will be diagnosed
with invasive ductal carcinoma, or IDC, which the National Breast
Cancer Foundation notes is the most common type of breast cancer,
accounting for between 70 and 80 percent of all diagnoses. While
women and even men who develop breast cancer are most likely
to be diagnosed with IDC, there are less common forms of breast
cancer, and learning about these rare cancers may help save your
life or that of a loved one.
Medullary carcinoma
Though medullary carcinoma diagnoses are rare, this is an
invasive type of breast cancer that begins in the milk duct and
spreads beyond it. The tumor that forms when a person has
medullary carcinoma is a soft and eshy mass. Medullary carcinoma
cells typically appear like aggressive, abnormal cancer cells, but
these cells do not grow quickly and often do not spread outside the
breast to the lymph nodes, which makes medullary carcinoma a
relatively easy cancer to treat. Medullary carcinoma can occur at
any age, though it typically affects women in their late 40s and early
50s.
Tubular carcinoma
Tubular carcinoma is a type of IDC that starts as
small, tube-shaped structures known as tubules that appear similar
to normal, healthy cells. Tubular carcinoma cells grow slowly and
are unlikely to spread outside of the breast, and, for that reason,
tubular carcinoma typically responds well to treatment. Though
tubular carcinoma once accounted for a very small percentage of
breast cancer diagnoses, they are now being diagnosed more often,
thanks in large part to the prevalence of screening mammography
that has been catching cases of breast cancer before doctors feel a
lump. Tubular carcinoma may feel less like a lump and more like a
cushiony area of breast tissue.
Mucinous carcinoma
Mucinous carcinoma is also a rare type of IDC in which tumors
are made up of abnormal cells in mucin, which is a part of mucus.
Many types of cancer cells, including the majority of breast cancer
cells, produce some mucus, which lines most of the inner surface
of the normal human body. But when a person is diagnosed with
mucinous carcinoma, the mucin has become part of the tumor, so
when examined under a microscope, the cancer cells appear to be
scattered in pools of mucus. Mucinous cancer can affect people
at any age, though it is especially rare in men and most often
diagnosed in women after they have gone through menopause.
Mucinous carcinoma is a less aggressive type of breast cancer than
others and is less likely than other types to spread to the lymph
nodes. As a result, it typically responds well to treatment.
Pagets disease of the nipple
Pagets disease of the nipple is characterized by breast cancer cells
that collect in or around the nipple. The cancer typically affects the
ducts of the nipple rst before spreading to the nipple surface and
areola, which is the dark circle of skin around the nipple. Both the
nipple and areola can and likely will become irritated, itchy, red,
and scaly when a person has Pagets disease, and these signs may
be the rst indicators that breast cancer is present. While Pagets
disease of the nipple is rare, the National Cancer Institute notes the
importance of recognizing its symptoms, as 97 percent of people
with Pagets disease also have cancer elsewhere in the breast.
Though the NCI notes that Pagets disease can develop in both
men and women, it is more common in women, among whom the
average age for diagnosis is 62. HEALTH/MEDICAL

A.J.L.
A New Location for One of Hudsons Fire Stations
by Shannon Lindsay, Rivier University Intern
Two weeks ago, the Hudson~Litcheld News began a series on
the Hudson Fire Department with a history of the department: how it
began in our town, how it has changed over the past 122 years since
it was rst formed, and where it is now. This week will be the start
of outlining changes that our professional reghters and ofcers,
in conjunction with the Board of Selectmen, are hoping to ask the
voters to approve in March when the town holds its elections.
Currently, the town of Hudson has three re stations in use: The
Leonard A. Smith Central Station (located at 15 Library St.), the
Robinson Road Station (located at 52 Robinson Rd.), and the Burns
Hill Station (located at 88 Burns Hill Rd.). These stations are all
staffed full-time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week; however, the
Burns Hill Station was not originally meant to be.
The Burns Hill Station was built in 1981, and its original purpose
was simply as a place to house volunteer reghters temporarily, a
place they could stop at to shower and change after being called
onto the job, and a place to house equipment for the on-call
reghters. Despite its original purpose, it has been fully staffed
since 2001, even though it is not properly equipped for this job. The
rooms are not separated by walls; only lockers separate rooms
from one another. The chiefs bedroom doubles as an ofce, and
the kitchen doubles as a training room. There is also no workout
equipment or space for equipment storage. This is something which
needs to be xed if the town wants this station to continue to be
staffed full-time, but, rather than just renovating the station, there
may be reason to move it entirely to a new location.
The National Fire Prevention Association (NFPA) requires that
all re departments be able to reach 90 percent of their town
within four minutes, from at least one of the stations in the town.
Currently, Hudson is at 58 percent. There used to be a three
minute response time to any part of Hudson from one station or
another; however, at this point in time, thats no longer true. The
current 2014 data shows that the response times reach as high as
seven minutes for some parts of the town.
Back in 1980, when the Burns Hill Station was built, Hudson
was home to 14,022 people. Currently, Hudson is home to 24,645
people, quite a big difference from what it was over 30 years ago.
The extra 10,000 people living here now means that the towns
residential areas are expanding. More housing developments
have popped up everywhere these days and, quite simply, a larger
geographic area needs to be covered. In addition, a slight shift has
occurred in where people
are living within the town;
the majority of calls taken
now by the re department
are coming from the Lowell
Road area, which is one of
the more congested parts of
the town.
These changes in the
population size and where
people are living have made
it more difcult for the re
department to respond
quickly enough to every
area of the town when
necessary. The stafng
and the technology have
improved, but the amount
of area to be covered is
signicantly larger. Because
of this, it may be time for a
change in location for one
of the stations.
The Hudson Fire
Department would like
to propose that the Burns
Hill Station be relocated to
Lowell Road, which would
allow for the amount of area
that could be reached with a four minute response-time to increase
from 58 percent to 70 percent. This would also allow for the new
station to be more fully equipped as it should be for a full-time staff,
since the Burns Hill Station never was. Furthermore, the winding
back roads where the Burns Hill Station is located make it harder for
the trucks to get where they need to be quickly. Moving the station
to Lowell Road appears to be an all-around great solution to all of
these problems.
The location for this new station would ofcially be 204 Lowell
Road. To give a better idea of where this would be, it would be next
to Hardy Road and directly across from Fairview Nursing Home, in
between Mission Pointe and Market Basket. This land is currently
not in use, but is already owned by the town which would end up
being a huge cost saving if the project were to go forward. It is
1.145 acres of land, and it is currently valued at $77,100, a price
which the town would not have to pay. A re station is one of the
only buildings in a town that is location-driven, being that it needs to
be able to reach different parts of the town as quickly and efciently
as possible, so the town believes that this land which they already
own would be best used for this purpose.
Right now, the south end of Hudson is not easily reached by the
re department and is denitely not in the four minute response-time
area, but this new station would be able to reach highly populated
areas such as River Road and Dracut Road much faster than the
Burns Hill Station can. Much of the area which the Burns Hill
Station is able to quickly respond to is actually unbuildable land.
Though there are some houses over there, there are denitely more
near the south end of the town.
A concern which some people may have about this new location
for the re station would be an effect on trafc. However, this
should not be a problem. There is a new trafc light being proposed
currently as a joint-venture between Haffners, Fairview, and Market
Basket. Once this light was in use, the re department would be
given control of it. Whenever the department needed to go on a
call, they would simply be able to turn the light facing vehicles
coming from other directions to red, and the re trucks would be
able to pull out quickly and efciently. This disruption would be
a matter of seconds, and then the trafc ow would go back to
normal.
If it is voted yes in the March election, this project will begin as
early as January 2016. The Hudson Fire Department has been given
building plans by the town of Londonderry, from a station which
Londonderry had built not too long ago. These are the plans which
Hudson plans to use, almost exactly as they are, and this will allow
for cost-savings in this area; no one will need to be hired to come up
with plans.
The Hudson~Litcheld News will be running a series of stories
to keep you up to date on what is happening with the plans for this
station and will continue to provide you with more information
before the election in March, so stay tuned.

Lady Broncos Battle Bulldogs in Volleyball
by Marc Ayotte
In what was a crucial contest with playoff implications at stake,
the Alvirne girls volleyball team came up a bit short on Monday,
October 21. Bedford (9-7) came into Hudson, and despite a
valiant Lady Bronco effort that saw them push the third set to the
brink, downed Alvirne on Dig Pink night, three games to zero.
The annual Dig Pink event is held in October as a means of
volleyball players and coaches becoming more involved in the
promoting of Breast Cancer awareness.
The Bulldogs beat back several Alvirne runs to
defeat their hosts by scores of 25-22, 25-20 and 28-26
in a thrilling, decisive third set. With the loss, their
eighth straight setback, the Broncos dropped to 3-13
on the season, but more importantly, they are now
precariously situated in 16th place in the D-I standing,
with only the top 16 qualifying for post season play.
Fortunately for Alvirne, they are two games up in the
win column over Manchester Memorial, Keene and
Nashua South. Barring a torrid, two-game win streak
by South to close out the season, the Broncos, even
without another win, should be playing in the last
week of this month.
Against the 10th ranked Bulldogs, the visitors
jumped out to leads of 10-5, and 17-12 in game one
before a great dig by Vivian Susko, led to a point as
well as to Paige Simoneau taking serve. Simoneau
recorded four straight service point wins to pull
Alvirne to within a point at 17-18. However, Bedford
proceeded to inch-away, and despite a kill by Amanda
Wetmore to make it 21-23, the Dawgs held on for the
three point win.
In game two, a Malory Coronis kill, followed by
Jenn Bakers three straight service points (including an
ace) gave the Broncos an early 7-6 lead. But Bedford
went on a 7-0 run to grab a 13-7 lead, causing AHS
Coach Joe Walz to call a time out. Shortly after,
Alvirne used another Baker ace to pull within four at
19-23, but again, Bedford held on to go up two sets to
zip.
The third set was high energy and very entertaining
as the Broncos attempted to thwart the Bulldog
sweep. Despite falling behind 1-4, 4-11 and 13-18
Alvirne showed great resilience; due in large part
to the serving prowess of Baker. The Lady Bronco
put together a streak of six winning serves including
another ace that gave her team a 19-18 lead. Alvirne
was one point from taking the game, but Bedford
came out from their second time out to score three of
the next four points, tying the score at 25-25 before
repeating that feat and grabbing the two point win.
Leading the spirited Bronco effort was Paige
Simoneau with a team-high ve kills to go along with
three blocks and four aces, Jess Baker with four kills
and six aces, Steph Jones with 13 assists, eight digs,
three aces, Malory Coronis (four kills, 10 digs), Laure
Donahue (seven assists) and Vivian Susko who recorded
a team high 13 digs.
In their previous three out of four outings, Alvirne
faced the upper echelon of D-I opponents; going
up against three top 10 teams that currently own a
collective 37-11 record. On the road, the Broncos fell
to number 2 Pinkerton (15-1), three games to none by
scores of 16-25, 23-25 and 13-25. Statistically, they
were led by Steph Jones (seven assists,
two aces, seven digs). Jess Baker (four
kills, four digs) and Vivian Susko with
13 digs.
At home against fourth ranked Salem
(12-4), the Broncos were blanked again;
losing to the Blue Devils by scores of
19-25, 24-26, and 19-25. Steph Jones
posted a pair of team-high stats with 13
assists and 11 digs. Jess Baker (ve kills)
and Amanda Wetmore with four kills and
three blocks also performed nicely in defeat.
In the second game of a mini, two game home
stand, Alvirne incurred another whitewash,
dropping all three sets to eighth ranked Spaulding
(10-6); 16-25, 16-25 and 20-25. Notable entries
on the AHS stat sheet were Steph Jones (13 assists),
Vivian Susko (18 digs), Lauren Donahue (ve assists
and ve digs), Paige Simoneau with four kills and
Morgan Leonard (ve kills, nine digs).

Broncos Stun Defending D-I Champions
by Marc Ayotte
If the thought of being down 2-0 to Hanover seems painfully
reminiscent, its probably because youre still recovering from last
years Bronco loss to the eventual state champs in the NHIAA soccer
title game. Nearly 365 days after that bitter tasting defeat, Alvirne
once again found itself on the light side of a 2-0 score in the second
half against the same Marauders.
But this time the Broncos showed their collective resolve and
fought off a torrential downpour to score a pair of second-forty
goals to force the game into overtime. And with less than one
minute remaining in the rst extra session, Anthony Oliviera, on
an assist from Anthony Holzhauser, beat Hanover keeper Konrad
Mitchell in thrilling fashion for the 3-2 victory.
As such, the Broncos season mark improved to 12-3, keeping
their hopes alive for a top-4 nish, which is rewarded with home
eld advantage up to the semi-nals. Meanwhile, Hanover slipped
to 10-4-1 with one game left on their schedule.
It was perhaps the most improbable of comebacks; overcoming
a two goal decit against a team revered for its team discipline,
offensive skills set as well as a seemingly impenetrable defense that
had allowed a stingy 11 goals in 14 games prior to entering Bronco
Nation.
In a high octane-paced rst half, Hanover controlled the ow
of the game and capitalized on a scoring opportunity with 23:26
showing on the clock to take a 1-0 lead. Halftime would soon
come, bringing with it heavy rains falling from the ominous sky that
approached Hudson from the east. But not before Bronco keeper
Jake Schoeld (seven saves), with less than two minutes left in the
rst forty, made a brilliant, lightning-quick left hand save on a
Marauder striker, strategically positioned in the six box. (see photo).
Schoelds dazzling rejection kept Hanovers lead at a single goal
and proved to be even more important early in the second half when
the Marauders made it 2-0 just seven
minutes in. In what were rapidly
becoming miserable and potentially
hazardous playing conditions, the
two game ofcials met at the muddy
center of the eld to presumably
discuss whether or not to continue the
game. With the decision to proceed,
and after a third Hanover goal was
negated on an offside call, the
Broncos went to work.
With 26:40 on the clock, Brett
Richardson, with the ball seemingly
on a shoestring, found his way into
the Hanover 18 box and in turn found
Matt Lubinski whose shot made its
way to the back of the net; beating
Mitchell between the wickets as he
came sliding out to try and make the
save. Just 67 seconds later, Holzhauser
put the Broncos right back in it; scoring from the right side to knot
the score up at two apiece.
The score remained tied for the ensuing 23 minutes, but with less
than 2:00 minutes remaining in regulation, the Broncos escaped sure
defeat, when a Marauder forward made his way into the 18 box and
eventually got past Schoeld. With nothing but an open net lying in
wait, major shank 2 occurred as the shot miraculously drifted to the
right and clanked off the outside part of the right post, resulting in an
Alvirne goal kick.
Just seconds after the Marauders maladroit bid to seal the win
gave Alvirne a new life, the Broncos were the recipients of a direct
kick resulting from a Hanover hand ball. Raul Stedile, from the
27 yard line as depicted on the Broncos American Football eld,
blasted a shot earmarked for the top left portion of the goal. Keeper
Konrad Mitchell soared through the air to his right; keeping the ball
from entering just under the crossbar with an incredible two-sted
save. That set the stage for Olivieras O.T. heroics. With 2:00
frozen on the clock, and well inside the 18 box on the rain-drenched
eld, he slid his shot inside the right post, past a miffed Mitchell for
the game winner.
Alvirne closes-out its regular season when they celebrate Senior
Night on Friday, October 14. In yet another crucial game with
implications on the nal standings, the Broncos will host Concord;
its third top six opponent in the last four games.

For the second time in as many weeks, the Campbell defense
turned in a stellar performance, this time holding their opponents to
a paltry 160 yards of total offense. Combine that with the special
individual offensive performance turned in by Kevin Moreau, and
the Cougars had a winning formula on Saturday, October 18;
blanking the visiting Farmington/Nute squad to the tune of 21-0.
With the victory, Campbell improved to 4-2 on the season and
solidied third place in the eight-team South Conference.
The Cougars were carried by the exploits of their workhorse
running back, Moreau, who accounted for all of Campbells 21
points. In the rst quarter, he took a Kyle Manning (QB) screen pass
to the house; scampering 83 yards to give CHS a 7-0 lead which
prevailed heading into halftime.
In the third quarter, Campbell doubled its lead over the Tigers
with an eight-play, 57 yard drive that took 3:15 off the clock. The
big play on the drive was a 22 yard pass play from Manning to Tyler
Walton which gave the Cougars a rst and goal at the F/N two yard
line. Moreau than scored his rst rushing touchdown on the day
when he punched-it-in on the next play.
Later in the quarter, both teams proceeded to go on lengthy,
though inconsequential drives as F/N turned the ball over on downs
after their 11 play drive zzled. Similarly, the Cougars nine-play
drive stalled on their own 48. Nonetheless, Campbell owned a
14-0 lead heading into the nal frame.
With 4:15 left in the game, the Cougars started their nal drive
of the day on the Tigers 35. Nine plays later, Moreau (20 carries,
87 yards) ran it in from 10 yards out, and after his third successful
point-after on the day, produced the 21 point
victory. Our defense is playing pretty good,
noted Coach Greg Gush of his teams aggressive
play that caused ve Tiger fumbles. Leading the
defensive effort was Moreau, who recorded eight
tackles. He was followed by Christian Kamacho
(seven), and Michael Killoran and Connar
Quigley who recorded ve apiece.
Offensively, Manning had a quiet day at the
quarterback position, completing only four of 16
passes for 129 yards, but did run for 39 yards on
10 carries. Tyler Walton gained 21 yards on his
only carry; a sweep to the left side of the eld
in the rst quarter. In the receiving department,
Walton (one for 22 yards), Andrew Smarse (one,
16) and Kyle Kopaczynski (one for 8 yards)
added to Moreaus 83 yard TD catch and run.
Campbell will celebrate Homecoming and
Senior Night in Friday Night Lights action on
October 24, when they host Bishop Brady (4-2),
in a key, South Conference matchup.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down?
Thumbs up to the place
in Hudson for her delicious
chicken noodle soup that I
ate and has made me feel
better as I have been sick for
two weeks.
Thumbs down to the
establishment in Hudson
who always brags about
their meals and friendly
atmosphere. A while back
we were told not to believe
any of that and to stay away,
now we certainly know why.
Portions are declining also.
We notice a lot less people
there. Instead of expanding
why dont you concentrate on
improving what you have and
be grateful? Youre getting too
big too fast; youll never last
the way youre going.
Thumbs up/Thumbs down.
Voting republican means
interest rates will go way up
and the value of your houses
goes way down. Voting
republican means going
deeper into war for more
oil and prots. This causes
hardships and republicans do
it every time. Just use your
memory or look it up.
Thumbs up to the new ice
cream store on Route 3A on
the Tyngsborough line. The
ice cream is very good; the
people are lovely and best
of all you can eat inside all
winter long.
Thumbs up/Thumbs
down. Ebola, ISIS Terrorism,
Russias Resurgence, the
Entero Virus outbreak on top
of domestic terrorism by the
IRS and the EPA with tragic,
almost comedic ineptitude
of the Secret Service clearly
points to either outright
incompetence or something
far more sinister by Shaheen
and Obama. But these
policies were well known by
the 2012 election. The real
guilty parties are the people
that voted for Obama and
Shaheen, they were the ones
who deliberately voted to
place New Hampshire lives
in harms way. Without their
vote, neither Obama nor Shaheen would have
been able to hurt so many women and children.
Thumbs down to the Obama and Shaheen voters,
you are the real monsters and you WILL be held
accountable!
Thumbs down. Lets put a stop to all the
ooding in the world by having the republicans
stop their crying.
Thumbs up. Budgets are like sausages, it
is better not to see them being made. Watch
Hudson Selectmen plan the 2016 budget only if
you have a strong stomach.
Thumbs down to local contractors who are
paid in full and never come back to nish the job
they promised to do.
Thumbs up! Hey, did ya here the news?
Bush was exonerated this week! There actually
was WMD in Iraq, and your dear leader and his
incompetent cult appointees, covered up that
information to you ... Not at this point it matters
to most low info voters anyways, they dont pay
attention, but I know you do! I hope your head
hurts with trying to dig up something to explain
that away.
Thumbs down to the
laundromat in north Hudson. I
have never seen a business run
like this in my life: no attendant
ever there, the ladies room is a
disaster with no soap or towels,
broken washing machines for
months on end never getting
xed, half the dryers have dried
on bubble gum that cant be
removed, many dryers simply
dont get hot enough to dry,
and whats worse, owners who
dont seem to care. If you dont
care about your customers you
shouldnt be in business.
Thumbs down. When you go to the polls,
remember what Basil Bunting wrote in the early
1920s, But their determination to banish fools
foundered ultimately in the installation of absolute
idiots.
Thumbs up to VP coach Ramon
and our Football coordinator coach
Chris! You both put in countless
hours and we truly appreciate
everything you guys do. Dont
listen to these useless, negative
cowards. This organization needs
the both of you keep doing what
you do. Thank
you!
Thumbs
down to the
granddaughter
for whistling
to get her
grandmothers
attention in
church on
Sunday.
Thumbs up to
Mr. Lecklider for
being responsive,
as always! After listening to
concerns about the DC trip dates,
he made a thoughtful decision to
change it. We appreciate the way
you do business at LMS!
Thumbs
down to the
older man with
grey hair who
drives a sedan
with a black
decorative
line across the
doors (possibly
a golden
Toyota Camry).
Apparently
your source of
feeling manly is
to berate a fth
grader coming
off her school
bus and crossing
the road. In case
you didnt notice
the school bus
had its red lights
ashing and stop sign out. Karma
... enjoy it when it comes back
your way.
Thumbs down. Whoever
wrote nothing turns out to be so
oppressive and unjust as a feeble
government must know most of
Hudsons Selectmen.
Thumbs down because I
strongly disagree with a recent
Thumbs Up about an auto repair service near the
old quarry. A recent and very negative experience
at that business, not even as a customer yet, is all I
needed to decide its not a business to put my trust
in or money into.
Thumbs down. Once again the cable
coverage of Mondays School Board meeting was
sub-par. Give the franchise fee back to the cable
viewers and take a golf club to the equipment.
Thumbs up. A huge thumbs up to Liz
MacDonald and all of her work with the Grifn
Memorial plantings and garden. The buttery
garden is a wonderful addition and makes me
smile every time I pass it. The mums and fall
plantings are beautiful. Every year it gets better
and better! Please know your hard work has not
gone unnoticed. It looks great!
Thumbs down. Are you scared? Halloween
and tax bills are coming soon!
Thumbs up/Thumbs down. For some time
now, weve had a neighbor who decided to park
a rusty, yard-work trailer on our neighborhood
street rather than in their own back yard. Its was
an eye-sore. Recently the trailer was moved with
no ask required, so a few of us on the street are
giving a big thumbs up of appreciation. Happy
Holidays.

Lady Broncos Honor Their Seniors but Lose Nail Biter to Bedford
Alvirne Lady Bronco Seniors and their parents. Players, left to right, Samantha
Mata, Brianna Wiggans, Sarah McAdam and Ashleigh Lavery
submitted by Frank Rosier
The Alvirne Broncos girls soccer team had two games this week
as their season winds down. On Tuesday, they went on the road to
take on the Timberlane Owls. On this beautiful fall day, the Lady
Broncos enjoyed the weather and a much needed win as they put
up their fth shutout of the year, beating the Owls 2-0. Goals by
Danielle Ross and Kristen Decoste powered the Alvirne offense
while Jillian Houle and Sammi Giannelli anchored the defense in the
win. After the win, Alvirne returned home for a tilt with Bedford on
Friday which proved to be the perfect night to honor their seniors.
The game was originally scheduled for Thursday but was postponed
due to the weather. The Lady Broncos have four seniors graduating
this year and celebrated their year with an on the eld ceremony at
halftime. Captain Brianna Wiggens, midelders Ashleigh Lavery,
Samantha Mata and Sarah Mcadam were
presented with owers by their parents, posters
and commemorative t-shirts from their teammates.
Each girl posed with their parents and their team
during the smile lled and emotional halftime
event. The event was made even better as the
team was tied with the Bedford Bulldogs 0-0 at
the half.
The second half remained a stale mate as
Alvirne looked to tie their third major opponent
of the year. Earlier ties against Nashua North
and Londonderry (both headed to high seeds in
the upcoming division one playoffs) marked high
points in an overall tough season. Unfortunately
an inadvertent handball at the edge of the box
caught the eye of an ofcial with just seven
minutes remaining and Bedford was awarded a penalty kick. The
kick slipped by Giannelli and the game ended 1-0. A disappointing
ending to a great night. You never want a game to be decided on a
penalty kick. However the Broncos held their heads high knowing
they held one of the top teams to only one goal.
Next up, Concord. Their nal game of the season will be played
at SNHU at 7 p.m. on Wednesday as Concord honors its seniors.
Good luck, ladies!

Seventeen year-old Derek
Grifth and the Grifth race team
is excited to be competing at the
2014 World Series, taking place
at the prestigious Thompson
Speedway Motorsports Park on
October 17-19.
Grifth, a Hudson native, will
complete his third full season
with the Granite State Pro Stock Series by racing in their
season nale 50-lap race. Derek currently sits fourth in the
points battle, just 38 points out of the top spot.
Our focus to this point has been consistent nishes and
the World Series is no different. Dont get me a wrong, a
win would be great, in front of the big crowd at Thompson,
but you need to nish, to win, so thats our goal. said
Grifth.
Derek most recently competed at Lee USA Speedways
Oktoberfest event, held on October 12. He nished the
50-lap Pro Stock race on the podium, in the third position.
Derek talked briey about that race. We had a great car,
going from 11th to third and racing against some great
talent is all you can really ask
for. The MOMs of Manchester
Toyota Camry was very strong
through the corners and thats
a result of Louies [Crew Chief
Louie Mechalides] set-up.
Also noteworthy is that Grifth
will also be competing at the
Thompson World Series race
against long-time friend of Crew
Chief Mechalides, Jason Boyd. One of the premier stock
car drivers in the Florida area, Boyd is making the trip up
to Thompson and will pilot a Louie Mechalides prepared
Pro-Stock. Its going to be awesome to race with Jason;
Louie and Jason have raced and won at New Smyrna
Speedway during Speedweeks, hes one of the best,
remarked Grifth.
The action from Thompson Speedway Motorsports
Park started Friday, October 17. Go to www.
thompsonspeedway.com for event information.

ended the year on a high note with a trip to
the New HAYFSC Flag Superbowl hosted in
Derry on Saturday, October 18. Excitement
was in the air as the players were able to
utilize the skills that they had learned all
season from blocking, passing, ag pulling,
and running in touchdowns. The boys
worked hard this year and when they were
on the eld, it truly showed. They met head
to head for four games with Londonderry,
Elks Purple, Elks Yellow and Force White
for 20 minutes each. In the end, the boys
walked away with Superbowl
T-shirts, medals and miles of
smiles. The players consisted of
Brady Beckwith, Billy Brandy,
Joey Christakos, Timothy
Cwiklik, Kyle Danton, Derek
Emanuel, Tegan Moreschi, Chase
Noone, Will OBrien, Jacob
Plante, Ben Robinson, Evan
Robinson, Zach Slingerland,

Broncos Victimized by Fairweather Conditions
AHS quarterback Mike Roberts (#9) hooked-up with tight end Josh Warrington
on a fourth-quarter, 15 yard touchdown pass.
by Marc Ayotte
Mother Nature did her part; providing unseasonably warm
weather in Bronco Nation for the D-I football battle between
Londonderry (6-1) and West Conference leading Alvirne (3-3).
Unfortunately for the Broncos, atmospheric conditions changed
when a sudden tornado of sorts ripped through town in the form of
Eric Fairweather. The Lancer quarterback rushed for over 200 yards,
threw for one TD and led a ground game that devastated the Alvirne
defense with four touchdown runs of 40 yards or more, on the way
to downing the Broncos by a 41-15 margin.
Under the Friday Night Lights, spectators from each town were
on hand not only to see the highly anticipated gridiron contest,
but also to see the friendly battle of the bands between, arguably,
the areas two pre-eminent high school bands. And at halftime
when the bands took to the eld to entertain the bleacher-packed,
school contingents, it was still a game as Alvirne trailed by only a
touchdown, at 14-7.
The Broncos stayed with the one-loss Lancers for most of the
opening frame; that was until Fairweather went on a one-man
scoring drive. With 1:05 left in the quarter, the Lancer QB called
his own number and proceeded to scamper 80 yards for a 7-0 lead;
using up just 13 seconds on the clock.
In the second quarter, Alvirne knotted things up. On a third
down and seven from his own 33, Alvirne quarterback Dan Brown
pulled a David Coppereld out of the Bronco playbook when he
escaped from a certain sack, and found wide out George Notini for
a 24 yard gain down to the Londonderry 43. Brown then hit Brycen
Yarmo cutting across the middle on another key, third down play.
Andrew Stevens then got in on the pass and catch act (27 yards)
when he took Browns pass down to the Lancer one. Jack Mahoney
then culminated the 67 yard drive with the short TD run, followed
by a Brown point-after with 8:31 showing on the clock. However,
the Lancers came back less than four minutes later on a 41 yard
touchdown run to take a 14-7 lead into the half time festivities.
Things went south in a hurry for the Broncos in the second half.
After receiving the opening kickoff, Londonderry went on another
one-man, 80 yard drive; this time compliments of running back
Dennis Bishop. The Lancer back took just one second longer than
his QBs effort; taking the pigskin into the end zone on the rst play
from scrimmage. As a result, with 11:46 still showing on the clock,
Londonderry had opened up a 21-7 advantage.
The Lancers made it 28-7 late in the third, but not before they
had touchdown runs of 66 yards (Fairweather) and 65 yards, called
back; one for an illegal formation and the other for a forward lateral.
With 2:01 left, Fairweather connected with receiver David
Wiedenfeld on a 16 yard touchdown toss to push the Lancer
lead to 21 points, heading into the fourth quarter.
After Londonderry scored two more touchdowns to take a
41-7 lead, the Broncos marched 66 yards for the nal score
of the night. Mike Roberts, who replaced Brown at the QB
position, hooked-up with junior Josh Warrington (TE) on
a 15 yard pass play with just 19 ticks left on the clock. A
two-point conversion from Roberts to receiver Jacen Hudson
produced the 41-15 nal.
Statistically for Alvirne it was a relatively quiet night,
although the offense did pick up over 200 yards through the
air via Brown (14-28, 187 yards) and Roberts (2-7, 21 yards,
TD). On the ground, it was Mahoney that again paved the
way, rushing for 81 yards on 23 carries. Mason Miller was
impressive in his role, gaining 21 yards on four touches.
Rounding out the remaining ball-carriers for Alvirne were:
Brown (four carries, 15 yards), Ryan Godschall (four, 10)
Roberts (one, 8), and Kyle Heidebreder who ran for 4 yards on his
lone touch.
Although it was Josh Warrington (two receptions, 21 yards) who
had the only TD catch of the night for Alvirne, the Bronco staples of
Andrew Stevens (79 yards on six catches) and George Notinin (three
for 63 yards), once again led the receiving corps. Harold Leete
(junior) and Brycen Yarmo posted identical stats; each making two
grabs for a total of 22 yards. The Broncos travel to Stellos Stadium
in Nashua for their Saturday matinee on October 25 versus Bishop
Guertin (2-5).
