School Administrative Unit 53 is being accused of improperly creating a new administrative position to oversee curriculum and assessment for the five towns of Deerfield, Pembroke, Allen-stown, Epsom and Chichester. Rep. Kevin Verville of Deerfield, who serves on the town’s budget committee, contends that the law wasn’t followed when the SAU board approved the $90,000 position last October.

Verville maintains that state law that governs SAUs, says that new positions can be created “only after 50 percent or more of the school districts in the school administrative unit representing 60 percent of the total pupils in the school administrative unit has voted favorably upon the establishment of the position.”

Patty Sherman, co-superintendent of SAU 53, said that the district consulted with it's attorney who believes that this position meets the requirements of the statute. In October, the SAU board voted, 9-4, with two abstaining, to create the position, but Verville believes the vote needed to go to the individual districts

not by the SAU board by itself. “In that language, it’s very specific to separate school districts from school administra-tive units,” Verville said. “I’m reading the

plain language of the law. So I’m not sure how a school administrative unit board can do that.” Verville's appeal will be heard in late fall.

New Boston aids an honorary firefighter This year, Hailey Gelinas, a local teenager battling a chronic

condition, was included in New Boston's Fourth of July celebra-tion. Gelinas, 16, has been dealing with renal failure all her life and recently suffered a setback. About 10 years ago, her uncle actually donated a kidney to her, but now, the kidney has failed. Gelinas is on dialysis, spending most of her time at home, watch-ing TV. But this Fourth of July, she got to do something out of the norm: she participated in the parade as an honorary firefighter. To find out how you can help Gelinas with her medical expenses, call the New Boston Fire Department at 603-487-5532.

The usual huge crowd was on hand for New Boston's 86th Annual Fourth of July celebration, kicked off with a parade through the town, followed by a fair and festival games at the Hillsborough

New Boston holds its 86th Annual 4th of July CelebrationCounty Youth Association field. The day was filled with floats, barbecues, chicken races, cannons, cowboys, laser tag and of course, fireworks. The parade theme this year was "U.S. States," with floats representing Louisiana, New York and Maine attracting attention as they came through the town center.

Following tradition, the youngest citizen, Xavier Hippert, who was born on May 15, and the oldest, Howard Towne who will be turning 98 this year, are featured in the parade. This year's grand marshals were Jack and Brandy Mitroff, who have worked on the festival since the ’70s.

Brittany Cilley, a graduate of Winnisquam High School, visited Mrs. Charnley's second-grade class at Paul Smith School in Franklin, and explained how she lost her eyesight and had to learn to use Braille. The children all received Braille cards with the alphabet and their indi-vidual names.

The use of benzodiazepines and related drugs in-creases the risk of hip fracture by 43% in persons with Alzheimer’s disease, according to a new study published in the Journal of the American MedicalDirectors Association. Benzodiazepines are a class of psychoactive drugs used to treat a range of condi-tions, including anxiety and insomnia. They are one of the most widely prescribed medications in the United States, particularly among elderly patients. Benzodi-

azepines possess sedative, hypnotic, anti-anxiety, anticonvulsant, and muscle relaxant properties.

• • •In a population-based study published in the British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, use of commonly prescribed acid-suppression medica-tions such as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) was linked with an increased risk of intestinal infections with C. difficile and Campylobacter bacteria, which can cause considerable illness. Users of these medications should be particularly vigilant about food hygiene as the removal of stomach acid makes them more easily infected with agents such as Campylo-bacter, which is commonly found on poultry.

• • •Heart medication taken in combination with chemotherapy reduces the risk of serious cardiovascular damage in patients with early-stage breast cancer, according to results from a new landmark clinical trial. Existing research has shown some cancer therapies such as Herceptin greatly improve survival rates for early-stage breast cancer, but come with a fivefold risk of heart failure — a devastating condition as life-threaten-ing as the cancer itself. A new five-year study published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology shows that two kinds of heart medications, beta blockers and ACE inhibitors, effectively prevent a drop in heart function from cancer treatment.

This plane was pulled from Lake Sunapee after one of its pontoons started leaking.

Sinking plane retrieved from Lake SunapeeLake Sunapee emergency crews spent part of their night pulling

an airplane out of the lake. A Chicago man flew his seaplane to Lake Sunapee to spend the Fourth of July weekend with his family. Just before 6 p.m. the family was about to head out to dinner when it called Sunapee fire and rescue. They told firefighters that the plane, moored just about 50 feet from shore, had started to take on water. The owner quickly got to the plane to get all his personal be-longings out and then tried to keep it from sinking further. Booms were set around the craft to prevent any fuel or oil leaking into the lake. Once the craft was upright the plan was to have it towed to Sunapee Harbor for inspection.

Medical/Mental Health registration program in Bow July 17thThe Bow and Dunbarton Police

Departments, in conjunction with the Goffstown Police Department's Commu-nication Center, is pleased to announce a Medical/Mental Health Registration Event to be held on Monday, July 17th from 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm in the Bow High School Library located at 55 Falcon Way, Bow, NH 03304.

The Medical/Mental Health Registra-tion program allows any citizen to provide information regarding themselves, a fam-ily member or friend so police can be bet-ter prepared to effectively assist an indi-vidual that may be suffering from a mental health emergency or medical condition. This program is intended to aid Emergen-cy Dispatchers and Police Officers in their response to calls for assistance involving individuals with mental health or medical impairments in order to provide the best possible level of service. The registration may also include key lock box information in the event there is an emergency at your home and first responders need to make entry into your home.

The information you provide is kept on file and will remain confidential. It will

be accessed only by emergency personnel who are engaged in a crisis situation. Ad-ditionally, if a juvenile is reported missing by a parent or guardian and the parent or guardian has completed registration paperwork, law enforcement officers will

be aware of de-escalation techniques, trig-gers, stimulants, physical descriptors and the most-likely places where the juvenile may go. This will allow us to locate the juvenile faster and more efficiently. The more we know, the better we can serve.

There will be an Open House at Bow's new Public Safety Complex on July 13th from 4-7 pm with a Ribbon Cutting at 4:00 pm. Eric Anderson photo.

Manchester man drowns at Lake SunapeeFish and Game divers recovered the body of a 46-year-old

Manchester man from Lake Sunapee Saturday night. Kevin Karolian fell out of a boat and drowned, despite efforts by friends at the scene, officials said. “His companions attempted to throw flotation devices to Mr. Karolian, but he was unable to use them,” Fish and Game officials reported. According to Fish and Game conservation officers, a 911 call was placed around 3:14 p.m. Sat-urday by a female passenger, identified as Karen Forziati, 44, of Boston, who was aboard a pontoon boat. She said Karolian had jumped into the water and became distressed. He was last seen in the vicinity of Dunning Point on Lake Sunapee.

Historic Francestown General Store closing its doors soonThe second- oldest continuously

operating general store in the country is expected to lose that title today when its owners plan to close the doors on the business.

Rob and Christina Wohle, who bought the 202-year-old store four years ago, attempted to raise money from the com-munity to pay town property back taxes so that the store would not be deeded to the town, but in the end the store is being auctioned by the mortgage-holder.

The Francestown Village Store is be-ing auctioned off by the bank on July 20, store clerk Ruth Sarkisian said Wednes-day. All day Wednesday the store had a 10 percent off sale for customers.

“People are coming in and expressing their sympathies,” Sarkisian said.

The store will open today at 6 am, but will shut its doors before the usual 8 pm closing time, she said.

Last month, the Wohles held a fund-raiser to help pay the $20,573.25 in town property taxes owed for the years 2014, 2015 and 2016.

According to the couple, the store never made the revenue they were told it

established in 1814 as The Long Store. It has been home to banks, a post office, a

harness maker, jeweler, and the town’s fire department. The two-story wood-frame building includes a three bedroom apartment upstairs.

Publishers Perspective by Leigh Bosse

To The Editor:Remembering An Era. Growing up in

Suffern, New York during the 1960's I don't think I will ever forget Wednesday evenings when one of my favorite TV shows, Batman starring Adam West and Burt Ward came on. The 60's were a great time when we could dream big as we watched America's Space Missions and we realized that we could reach beyond the stars as my genera-tion witnessed Neil and Buzz taking the first steps on the Moon during that long ago Summer of 1969. This most pivotal decade in Post War America saw so much cultural change, the good, bad, Counter Cultural

Lifestyles, J.F.K., The Beatles, Hippies, Yippies, R.F.K., M.L.K., Woodstock,..... It was a time when we had Real Heroes as a nation watched in pride as the likes of John Glenn, Alan Shepard, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and so many more as they waved to the crowds as they made their way along the Canyon of Heroes in New York City. The 1960's certainly left a very impressive watermark. What a great time to be a kid! But, in looking back on that decade through a child's eyes, those Wednesday evenings in our living room so many life times ago watching in awe as those Caped Crusaders headed off to the Bat Cave taking off in the

I was upset to read Chris O'Connor's retort last week to J.P Marzullo's column the week before. Chris falls into the same trap our liberal friends occupy when they refuse to debate the merits of the issues facing us. They ignore the message, if you will, and simply attack the messengers with hateful labels. Rather than counter J.P.'s arguments with facts, Chris simply resorts to age old lib-eral banter, accusing the Republican agenda of making "the Filthy Rich even richer." That lie falls alongside of those claiming Repub-licans "hate women," "despise poor people," and "want to eliminate social security."

Chris's suggestion that "If Mr. Mar-zullo wants to know who is to blame for the nastiness in the American political system,

he should look in the mirror." This comes the same week that: Hillary Clinton says if Republicans pass a bill to repeal Obamac-are, “they’re the death party;” Sen. Bernie Sanders says if the bill passes, “Thousands of people will die;” Sen. Elizabeth Warren calls the repeal of Obamacare taxes “blood money;” and former President Barack Obama says “This bill will do you harm.”

Please remember Chris; it is not Republi-cans or conservatives who riot, burn and pil-lage when a decision turns against them. It is not Republicans or conservatives who refuse to let differing views speak on campus, and if they do, shout them down. Let's drop the name calling and have a true debate on the merits of the great issues facing us.

Goffstown Club President Michele Sheppard presents the Rotarian of the Year awards to Dur-wood Sargent (left) and Robin Morrell, (right).

Bat Mobile off to their next great destina-tion to conquer the evil doers. Going to Woolworth's in Downtown Suffern to get the latest trading cards was one of the happiest moments in the kid universe.

Not unlike my parents generation of Jack Armstrong, the all American Boy, The Shadow Knows, Dick Tracy, etc., these Super Heroes really stand the test of time. I guess that is why there was such a sense of poi-gnancy when I read of Adam West's passing as these bits and pieces that connect us to our youth are now gone (There were many in the last year and a half David Bowie, Glenn Frey, Greg Lake, Keith Emerson...) these lost

connections of my generation brings to mind in a rather heavy handed reality check by the passage of years is that we will never be young again.

This concept sometimes hits like a ton of bricks at times. I also think of the family and friends that were with us that have passed away and how much I miss them all. So, rest in Peace, Adam West as you take that last ride in the Bat Mobile as you enter your next greatest destination of all... Holy Heaven! And oh yes, what times those Wednesday nights were...

Diane Hill, Contoocook*****************************************

Work on rebuilding Goffstown's Main Street continues. Crews from the Depart-ment of Public Works are reclaiming, re-grading and getting ready to pave the section of Main Street from the bridge up to Moun-tain Road. The plan is to also reconstruct the roundabout in that area where Route 13

splits off from Route 114 by Mountain Road. The next phase of work, which will begin in the coming months, will be from Main Street to Elm Street. The final phase of road work will be done in the fall and includes North Mast Road from Summer Street to West-lawn Cemetery.

Progress made on Goffstown's Main Street project

Sunapee Police bust 2nd underage partyOn Friday, June 30th, Sunapee Police observed suspicious activ-

ity at a location on Route 11 in Georges Mills. After a brief investiga-tion, a gathering of under age persons was found to be taking place with a large quantity of alcohol at the location. All alcohol was con-fiscated and 11 teenagers were taken into custody and transported to the Sunapee Police Department where they were processed and released on personal recognizance bail. All of the underage persons were released to parents or relatives and were given a court date of August 1, 2017 at 8:30 a.m. at the 5th Circuit Court in Newport. The Sunapee Police were assisted at the scene by the New London Police Department. This is a similar incident as to what took place on June 22nd when 39 persons were arrested at the same location, the Georges Mills cottages on Otter Pond in Georges Mills. Nearly all of the individuals arrested on June 22nd are from Braintree, Massa-chusetts. All of the 11 persons arrested on June 30th are from Brain-tree, Massachusetts. All of those arrested were charged with crimes relating to underage possession and consumption of alcohol. The Sunapee Police Department is currently working with the owner of the Georges Mills cottages to stop this type of activity from occurring.
