That's where we try to be objec- tive, to treat everyone fairly and equally.

Keep news out Dear Sir: After reading your December 29, 1981 issue of the Ticonderoga Sen- tinel I have decided not to waste my money and buy your newspaper again. I have always enjoyed reading the Sentinel, but due to an item in your recapping of 1981, I no longer find it a newspaper that deals in human feel- ings and is very insensitive to the feelings of the peo- ple. On January 4, 1981, my sister and her husband were the ones involved in the accident on Chilson Hill. Last year, the front page of your newspaper was splashed with a pic- ture of the car, and sensa- tional headlines that were only part true. I am not going to go into the truth and false of the article, but somebody's facts were not true and they were repeated again this year.- My sister and her husband suffered a great loss, one that can never be recovered and they did not need to be reminded of it again, especially splashed in your paper again. It seems to me that the feelings of the people involved should be taken into consideration before something is repeated in your paper. Granted it was news, was, why make people relive it. Couldn't you find any good news to recap? It seems to me the in- teresting side of this acci- dent involving a DWI would have been a follow up to see what the driver got as his reward for the suffering he caused his victims. Nothing I'm sure compared to the pain suf- fering and loss he caused his victims. Nothing is ever followed up to see if this person got any stiff restrictions that is sup- posedly law in New York. No, no one cares if he's put back on the highway to repeat his act, and maybe next time it will be two or three he kills. This is where you should have put your energies, not making his victims relive it. A week or so after the spash on your front page, two letters appeared writ- ten to the editor, saying just about what I am. Ap- parently, what your readers think has no bear- ing on what is written, because here it is again on Jhe front page, minus the picture. I give your competitor a lot of credit. Not only did he not recap it, but he did not splash it on the front page at the time. He ap- parently has regards for his readers and their feel- ings, which is more than I can say for you.

M«W $1h«- By Aletha Haley The wind-up of holiday festivities in this part of the North Country is the party, an annual affair, hosted by Fran and Rita Murdock. Their large home was a perfect setting on January 2. for the 30 geusts to minlge. The bar was in the den, thfe. h6rs d'oeurves (Hot and^. co$r||pfilled the dining^table arid the kit- chen bar. Rita and Fran introduc- ed Rita's boss, Attorney Randolph Parker and his wife. Practically everyone congratulated them on the way they have had their home, the former Jim Cheney hall redecorated, the color, blinds including the lawn and stone wall have added a -lot. They invited us to see the changes inside "even more attractive" said Mrs. Parker. We enjoyed visiting with Rita's daughter Keye Belles and her husband Arthur who live in Essex Junction, Vt. Among the guests from out of town were Mary and Peter Car- riero, and Bill and Ina Speackley, from New Jersey. The clever hosts, near the time for the party to break up, served one for the road, eg: bread, cheese, ham etc. ap- peared on the kitchen counter and guests made their own sandwiches. For five days everything in every detail was super for a little 7 year old girl, until a lack of com- munications caused tears. Not really tears, but sobs. It had taken us a few hours to get Julia in the frame of mind to want td return to Lake Placid on' the Adirondack Trailways at 4:35 New Years Eve. The jwo of us prepared a light lunch, one package for Julia, another for a friend of her/mother's, who was .returning to Lake Placid on the same bus.

All the stores in the area are closed but when the bus was late we did sit in the car and turn- ed on the motor...with the window open. Suddenly, Fran Mur- dock drove by and called out that the bus was at Stewart's Ice Cream. From where we were we couldn't see the bus and Franks' shout shook us up. The sobs started as we had to take her luggage parked in front of the Sugar Bowl to put it in our little VW. One suitcase, one large duffle bag, a pair of skis and ski poles, plus the heavy ski boots. Not to forget the lunch. The sobs continued even when we reached the bus. Stewart's is great but the public should be ad- vised. There was a man parked in front of the Sugar Bowl waiting for the bus who heard Frank's call, and he spoke to us as we drove to Stewarts. Tex and Anita had lun- choen with us when they drove in from Manhasset on December 22. Tex volunteered to pick up Eddie at the bus terminal to save his daughter-in- law a trip from Hoffman. Eddie got off at Stewart's, where the bus stopped, a long city block from the Sugar Bowl. The highlight of Julia's five day visit was Tuesday when she skied with her instructor who took her high-up on the mountain on three trails, then that same afternoon we stop- ped on the way home,at the Bombas arid were in- vited to a delicious leg of lamb dinner cooked -by _, Kafhy L^Bflrg^;.

The previous day we rode the Gondola as a passenger as did Mrs Rice. Patrice Munsel was sick New Year's Eve. She had an appointment with Dr. Sawyer early in the after- noon who told her to be quiet, etc. She and her husband, Bob Schuler did get to services at Our Lady of Lourdes Church on New Years Day. Four people described the very chic outfit that Pat wore, a scarlet-red cape high boots. Bob wore the same Russian-type boots. Pat told us she* had to get well, with the concerts schedul- ed in January. Also among the sick on New Year's Eve was Jim Gregory's sister, Mrs. Leonard of Saranac Lake. Both she and her husband have delightful voices. We missed them but twleve of us toasted in the New Year, drinking Moet & Chandom champagne. We could hear our son Jim tell Neil to stop talk- ing. We telephoned within minutes after Pitt's exciting Sugar Bowl win on New Year over second ranked Gerogia. Pitt- sburgh after it loss to Penn dropped from No. 1 to 10th place in the coun- try. Terry Dillon stopped Sunday after Christmas at the Glens Falls Hospital, to visit Pat Morissey. Pat was walking in the cor- rider. It was the day the nasty snowstorm made driving so difficult.

And in this Ticonderoga will one day soon find itself in the mid- dle of an exciting con- troversy. Four principals are seeking to undertake hydroelectric develop- ment of the oudet stream of Lake George that feeds into Lake Champlain. There's about a 200 foot elevation difference bet- ween the two bodies of water and significiant hydroelectric power can be generated with that type of flow and that elevation. International Paper Company, lan- downer along the LaChute River, is in- terested. Long Lake Power Com- pany has filed permit ap- plications on the LaChute and many other potential hydro sites throughout the state. The Essex County Economic Development Commission is looking in- to the possiility. And finally, DEC has filed an application to construct a 14 million dollar hydroelectric power pro- jet on the creek that flows through Ticonderoga. As we understand it, DEC proposes to build a tunnel under the village funnel water to one of its propos- ed hydro plants. The reason this is going to be interesting is that New York state law, established firmly after many many years of water * ! i us"* 4 ?;* cMtofeha^|fe#quires cipiSy3i|»Pf!«!r«a- The^\^o|p^i»nng th&su^ni0|^|||^'i[ow from tie li^e is practical- ly nil as ; a : i*t^Spfre-lake level «ontroklaw$.vWhen the old IP Papir Jvlill was powered Iff. hydro, in- dustry was aligned against recreationa for the oppor- tunity to draw, down the lake as water was needed in dry periods.

ACC Anniversary o—' Celebration Friend Ed Morette of Ticonderoga has an- nounced that the 35th An- nual Meeting of the Adirondack Conservation Council will he held die second weekend of May, starting Friday night, the 7th, and running through the 9th. Site of the affair will be the Trout House Village Resort at Hague, New York. Morette is Chairman of the Anniversary Meeting and is putting together plans for an outstanding weekend commemorating this leading Adirondack conservation organiza- tion's anniversary. Founding President Ed Worthington of Saranac Lake will be honored at a special recognition dinner as will all other past Presidents, according to President Jerry Pendas. A top Washington en- vironmental offical has been invited to be guest of honor and we'll let you know more about him at a future date when we know whether he can make it. Assemblyman Andy Ryan More sessions called for w ^ J One of the worst pro- blems we have had to face in the legislature in recent years is the uncertainty of not knowing what the coming order of business is and what will be on the agenda on any given day. The reason for this is that the state legislature's duties have become much more complex irt recent years and it is taking an increasingly greater period of time each year to complete the scheduled business. Now, a proposal design- ed to alleviate some of the problems created by this legislative burden has been proposed by Assembly- Republican Leader James L. Emery. . The plan calls for the divi- sion of thje legislative year into three regular sessions which would include: —A session, opening January, for the con- sideration of the State Budget as submitted 'by the Governor. During tiUs session 'no,, other major legislative business would he brought" before either t house. * - i, 1—The second phase, hegitining - afyer tjie •*'* passage of the budget, would consider program bills and, such local legislation as lawmakers had brought from their home districts.

County committee heads named Fired MMah Central School District art teacher Sandra Smitii was vindicated last^eek when a State Labor Relations Board arbitrator in Albany ruled that she should get her job back. Miss Smith was denied tenure in 1970 by die Moriah CSD Board of Education, going against favorable evaluation report by then Superintendent of Schools Mlton Tesar. Residents also presented petitions calling for her rentention. At the hearing in Albany, the district was represented by Atty. John Sissman, and the Moriah Teachers Association and Miss Smith by New York State United Teachers Field Representative Lee Clark and various NYSUT attorneys. Arbitrator Jonathan Liebowitz also ruled, however, that Smith was not entitled i a her back pay, some $30,000, that she had sought. He said the district acted six weeks late on her dismissal and had not completed re- quired evaluations of her teaching performance. Smith was in the final year of a three-year pro- bationary period and the ' ruling would have her reinstated for the equivalent of the third year with no guarantee of employment after that. Smith now teaches in the Albany School District and the art program has been eliminated at Moriah so her opting to return would appear unlikely. Crown Point to get new truck Appointments and bid discussion occupied the Crown Point Town Board at their January 7 meeting. The board decided to seek bids for a new dump truck for the highway department and a bid will also be entered for a used salt spreader being of- fered for sale by the Town of Ticonderoga. Consideration will also be given to the purchase of a new 3/4 ton pickup truckfor the highway department and bids will be sought for that vehicle. The meeting was the first for Town Supervisor Charles Mazurowski, elected in November. Town attorney will be John Silverberg; health officer, Dr. Michele Moore; justice clerk, Jane Smith; interim constable and dog officer, Leonard Woods; supervisor's clerk, Cora Cook; assessor chairman, Larry French and water district superintendent, William Burrows. Mazurowski appointed Councilman Leo St. Pierre as deputy super- visor, and deputy town clerks will be Lorraine Dudley, Jean Breed and Cathy Smith. Heading up various town committees will be Joseph Duval, constable committee; Leo St. Pierre and Joseph Duval, highways; Carl Ross and Joseph Duval, buildings and grounds; Robin Knapp and Simeon Mcln- trye, street lights; disaster and civil defense, Robin Knapp; and Terry Hurlburt. economic development. The Ticonderoga Sen- tinel was named the of- ficial newspaper for the Town of Crown Point. Men found with drugs A Ticonderoga resident was arraigned on several charges after being stop- ped by police for a trafic violation on January 3. Ticonderoga Town- Village Police Officers George Reeves and Steve Yaw stopped Stephen J. Bevins, Jr., 18, Montcalm St., Ticonderoga at 12:45 a.m. for driving at an un- safe speed. Due to his alleged condition, police also charged him with driving while intoxicated. While being processed, police reported a small bag of marijuana was found on Bevins and he was charged with drug possession. Arraigned before Town Justice James Donovan, Bevins was committed at the time to the Essex County Jail at Elizabethtown in lieu of S500 bail. He was later released on bail. In another incident, State Police at Schroon Lake charged Richard L. Vanderwarker, 25. Ticonderoga with misde- meanor criminal posses- sion of marijuana and felony criminal possession of a controlled substance (LSD) after Vander- warker was pulled over by Tpr. James O'Connor for a traffic violation in Ticonderoga. Several new appoint- ments to committees of the Essex County Board of Supervisors at Elizabethtown were made last week by Chairman James Morse of Essex Town. The most dramatic change is the switch from Schroon Town Supervisor John Kelly to Chesterfield Town Supervisor David Butler as chairman of the influential Ways and Means Committee. Kelly ran for chairman of the board of supervisors, but withdrew his bid after a secret straw poll was taken in a caucus before the Jan. 4 session. The poll favored Morse.

Recently, a reader took us to task for reporting bad news about her family. She accused the paper of being insensitive.

Nothing could be further from the truth. One of the things that raises most weekly papers over dailies is their sensitivity to the feelings of the community, and their involvement in the area they serve.

We try our best to consider the feelings of our readers before something sees print. Good taste and common sense are used as a guide to publishing photos and stories. (And we do make mistakes).

dent, a crime, or any negative event would want their name printed. They would all tell us Id "keep it out."

That's where we try to be objec­tive, to treat everyone fairly and equally. The idea is not to let anyone think that they are so special or important that by pick­ing up the phone they can prevent the publication of a certain story.

If they could, it would be wrong. Newspapers were founded. on

the public's Right To Know and their right to publish is guaranteed in the US Constitution. Our primary intent is to inform our readers, not cater to the wants of any certain person or pressure group.

And now, about getting items in the paper: we're always interested in what people are doing, club meetings, social events, anything that others would want to read. Any such articles can be mailed in or brought to our office, and we're happy'to print them.

Keep news out Dear Sir:

After reading your December 29, 1981 issue of the Ticonderoga Sen­tinel I have decided not to waste my money and buy your newspaper again. I have a lways e n j o y e d reading the Sentinel, but due to an item in your recapping of 1981, I no longer find it a newspaper that deals in human feel­ings and is very insensitive to the feelings of the peo­ple.

On January 4, 1981, my sister and her husband were the ones involved in the accident on Chilson Hill. Last year, the front page of your newspaper was splashed with a pic­ture of the car, and sensa­tional headlines that were only part true. I am not going to go into the truth and false of the article, but somebody's facts were not true and they were repeated again this year.-My sister and her husband suffered a great loss, one that c a n n e v e r be recovered and they did not need to be reminded of it again, especially splashed in your paper again. It seems to me that the feelings of the people involved should be taken

into consideration before something is repeated in your paper. Granted it was news, was, why make people relive it. Couldn't you find any good news to recap?

It seems to me the in­teresting side of this acci­dent involving a DWI would have been a follow up to see what the driver got as his reward for the suffering he caused his victims. Nothing I'm sure compared to the pain suf­fering and loss he caused his victims. Nothing is ever followed up to see if this person got any stiff restrictions that is sup­posedly law in New York. No, no one cares if he's put back on the highway to repeat his act, and maybe next time it will be two or three he kills. This is where you should have put your energies, not making his victims relive it.

A week or so after the spash on your front page, two letters appeared writ­ten to the editor, saying just about what I am. Ap­p a r e n t l y , what y o u r readers think has no bear­ing on what is written, because here it is again on

Jhe front page, minus the

picture. I give your competitor a

lot of credit. Not only did he not recap it, but he did not splash it on the front page at the time. He ap­parently has regards for his readers and their feel­ings, which is more than I can say for you. Former Readers, Mr. & Mrs. John A.Childs Moriah, New York

(Editor's Note: We cer­tainly regret any conster­nation (he recapping for our annual news summary may have caused you, however, we are in the business of reporting news, not supressing it. You put as aft the same position as the messengers of ancient Greece, who were sometimes put to death if they bore bad news. As for your com­ment that nothing is ever followed up, there has been nothing to follow up.

M«W $1h«-By Aletha Haley

The wind-up of holiday festivities in this part of the North Country is the party, an annual affair, hosted by Fran and Rita Murdock.

Their large home was a perfect setting on January 2. for the 30 geusts to minlge. The bar was in the den, thfe. h6rs d'oeurves (Hot and . co$r||pfilled the dining^table arid the kit­chen bar.

Rita and Fran introduc­ed Rita's boss, Attorney Randolph Parker and his wife. Practically everyone congratulated them on the way they have had their home, the former Jim C h e n e y hall redecorated, the color, blinds including the lawn and stone wall have added a -lot. They invited us to see the changes inside "even more attractive" said Mrs. Parker.

We enjoyed visiting with Rita's daughter Keye Belles and her husband Arthur who live in Essex Junction, Vt. Among the guests from out of town were Mary and Peter Car-riero, and Bill and Ina Speackley , from New Jersey.

The clever hosts, near the time for the party to break up, served one for the road, eg: bread, cheese , ham etc. ap­peared on the kitchen counter and guests made their own sandwiches.

For five days everything in every detail was super for a little 7 year old girl, until a lack of com­munications caused tears. Not really tears, but sobs.

It had taken us a few hours to get Julia in the frame of mind to want td return to Lake Placid on'

the Adirondack Trailways at 4:35 New Years Eve. The jwo of us prepared a light lunch, one package for Julia, another for a friend of her/mother's, who was .returning to Lake Placid on the same bus.

Bowl was closed at 4 p.m. But it wasn't snowing and the early darkness wasn't scary as the street lights were warm. All the stores in the area are closed but when the bus was late we did sit in the car and turn­ed on the motor...with the window open.

Suddenly, Fran Mur­dock drove by and called out that the bus was at Stewart's Ice Cream. From where we were we couldn't see the bus and Franks' shout shook us up.

The sobs started as we had to take her luggage parked in front of the Sugar Bowl to put it in our little VW. One suitcase, one large duffle bag, a pair of skis and ski poles, plus the heavy ski boots. Not to forget the lunch.

The sobs continued even when we reached the bus. Stewart's is great but the public should be ad­vised. There was a man parked in front of the Sugar Bowl waiting for the bus who heard Frank's call, and he spoke to us as we drove to Stewarts.

Tex and Anita had lun-choen with us when they drove in from Manhasset on December 22. Tex volunteered to pick up Eddie at the bus terminal to save his daughter-in-law a trip from Hoffman. Eddie got off at Stewart's, where the bus stopped, a long city block from the Sugar Bowl.

The highlight of Julia's five day visit was Tuesday when she skied with her instructor who took her high-up on the mountain on three trails, then that same afternoon we stop­ped on the way home,at the Bombas arid were in­vited to a delicious leg of lamb dinner cooked -by

The group skied all day; the Wards, O'Leary's and Margaret Rice left North Creek for Long, Island; Karen and Sinead Bommbs, two col lege friends of Karens and Julia returned to the Bom­bas around 6 p.m. Karen said they had been on the mountain all day, using the G o n d o l a . T h e previous day we rode the Gondola as a passenger as did Mrs Rice.

Patrice Munsel was sick New Year's Eve. She had an appointment with Dr. Sawyer early in the after­noon who told her to be quiet, etc. She and her husband, Bob Schuler did get to services at Our Lady of Lourdes Church on New Years Day. Four people described the very chic outfit that Pat wore, a scarlet-red cape high boots. Bob wore the same Russian-type boots. Pat told us she* had to get well, with the concerts schedul­ed in January.

Also among the sick on New Year's Eve was Jim Gregory's sister, Mrs. Leonard of Saranac Lake. Both she and her husband have delightful voices. We missed them but twleve of us toasted in the New Year, drinking Moet & Chandom champagne.

We could hear our son Jim tell Neil to stop talk­i n g . W e t e l e p h o n e d within minutes after Pitt's exciting Sugar Bowl win on New Year over second ranked Gerogia . Pitt­sburgh after it loss to Penn dropped from No. 1 to 10th place in the coun­try.

greatest ideas which has, come down the pike in .many a year is the statewide effort to under­take hydroelectric power projec t s that will at r e a s o n a b l e cost with minimal environmental damage deserve our total support. And in this Ticonderoga will one day soon find itself in the mid­dle of an exciting con­troversy.

Four principals are seek ing to undertake hydroe lectr ic deve lop­ment of the oudet stream of Lake George that feeds into Lake Champlain. There's about a 200 foot elevation difference bet­ween the two bodies of water and significiant hydroelectric power can be generated with that type of flow and that elevation. International Paper Company, lan­d o w n e r a l o n g t h e LaChute River, is in­terested.

Long Lake Power Com­pany has filed permit ap­plications on the LaChute and many other potential hydro sites throughout the state. The Essex County Economic Development Commission is looking in­to the possiility. And finally, DEC has filed an application to construct a 14 m i l l i o n d o l l a r hydroelectric power pro-jet on the creek that flows through Ticonderoga. As we understand it, DEC proposes to build a tunnel under the village funnel water to one of its propos­ed hydro plants.

The reason this is going to be interesting is that New York state law, established firmly after many many years of water

One of the worst pro­blems we have had to face in the legislature in recent years is the uncertainty of not knowing what the coming order of business is and what will be on the agenda on any given day.

The reason for this is that the state legislature's duties have become much more complex irt recent years and it is taking an i n c r e a s i n g l y g r e a t e r period of time each year to complete the scheduled business.

Now, a proposal design­ed t o alleviate some of the problems created by this legislative burden has b e e n p r o p o s e d by A s s e m b l y - R e p u b l i c a n Leader James L. Emery.

. The plan calls for the divi­sion of thje legislative year into three regular sessions which would include:

—A session, opening January, for the con­sideration „ of the State Budget as submitted 'by the Governor. During tiUs session 'no,, other major legislative business would he brought" before either

t house. * -i, 1—The second phase,

passage of the budget, would consider program bills and, such local legislation as lawmakers had brought from their home districts. Legislators would be given die oppor­tunity before session reopened to return to their home districts for local fact gathering to find out what the people most need.

—The final session, which would be called to order in the fall,, would consider the Supplemen­tal Budget, any items which had arisen since die previous Sessions, and adoption of measures to implement.., ited,eral Budget aUocatibhs to New York Stijtei-/ ;

Moriah teacher wins appeal

Fired M M a h Central S c h o o l D i s t r i c t ar t teacher Sandra Smitii was vindicated l a s t ^ e e k when a State Labor Relations B o a r d a r b i t r a t o r i n Albany ruled that she should get her job back.

Miss Smith was denied tenure in 1970 by die Moriah CSD Board of Education, going against

favorable evaluation r e p o r t b y t h e n S u p e r i n t e n d e n t o f Schools M l t o n Tesar. Residents also presented petitions calling for her rentention.

At t h e h e a r i n g in Albany, the district was represented by Atty. John Sissman, and the Moriah Teachers Association and Miss Smith by New York State United Teachers Field Representative Lee

Clark and various NYSUT a t t o r n e y s . A r b i t r a t o r Jonathan Liebowitz also r u l e d , h o w e v e r , that Smith was not entitled i a h e r back pay , s o m e $30,000, that she had sought . He said the district acted six weeks late on her dismissal and had not completed re­quired evaluations of her teaching performance.

Smith was in the final year of a three-year pro­bationary period and the ' ruling would have her r e i n s t a t e d for t h e equivalent of the third year with no guarantee of employment after that. Smith now teaches in the Albany School District and the art program has b e e n e l i m i n a t e d at Moriah so her opting to return w o u l d appear unlikely.

Men found with drugs A Ticonderoga resident

was arraigned on several charges after being stop­ped by police for a trafic violation on January 3.

T i c o n d e r o g a T o w n -Village Police Officers George Reeves and Steve Yaw stopped Stephen J. Bevins, Jr., 18, Montcalm St., Ticonderoga at 12:45 a.m. for driving at an un­safe speed. Due to his alleged condition, police also charged him with driving while intoxicated.

While being processed, police reported a small bag of marijuana was found on Bevins and he was charged with drug p o s s e s s i o n . Arra igned b e f o r e T o w n Jus t i ce James Donovan, Bevins was committed at the time to the Essex County Jail at Elizabethtown in lieu of S500 bail. He was later released on bail.

In another incident, State Police at Schroon

Lake charged Richard L. V a n d e r w a r k e r , 2 5 . Ticonderoga with misde­meanor criminal posses­sion of marijuana and felony criminal possession of a controlled substance ( L S D ) af ter V a n d e r ­warker was pulled over by Tpr. James O'Connor for a traffic violation in Ticonderoga.

Several new appoint­ments to committees of the Essex County Board of S u p e r v i s o r s at Elizabethtown were made last week by Chairman James Morse of Essex Town.

The most dramatic change is the switch from Schroon Town Supervisor John Kelly to Chesterfield Town Supervisor David Butler as chairman of the inf luent ia l Ways and Means Committee. Kelly ran for chairman of the board of supervisors, but withdrew his bid after a secret straw poll was taken in a caucus before the Jan. 4 session. The poll favored Morse.
