Hike for
water rates
By Susanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff
susanna@duxburyclipper.com
An increase in water rates
will mean higher water bills
for most Duxbury residents.
This week, selectmen vot-
ed unanimously to support a
new four-tier water rate struc-
ture that replaces the current
three-tier structure beginning
March 1.
The purpose of the four
categories is to foster water
conservation and meet the op-
erating costs of the Water De-
partment.
Under the new rates, the
annual base charge will in-
crease for both seniors and
non-seniors and the first cate-
gory of water usage is divided
into two new tiers.
There are 5,400 house-
holds on town water and the
majority of them, over 50
percent, fall into the second
tier of usage of 21,000-60,000
gallons.
“Residents who fall within
tier 1 are rewarded for their

Parents want more kids wearing bike and

A group of parents is lead-

bike riders and skateboarders
in Duxbury wearing helmets
–– although they are holding
off on a plan to present a hel-

Selden Tearse said she
has grown concerned over the
number of kids in Duxbury rid-

without a helmet.
“Last summer there were

School Committee

The Duxbury School

levels by asking reporters to

In addition to the viola-

the School Committee failed
to answer two letters from the
DA’s office, dated Oct. 5 and
Nov. 4.

As a result of the viola-

publicly that they violated the

meeting on Sept. 23, 2009.
They must specifically admit
that they violated the law by
telling the public to leave an

The Duxbury Beach Preservation Society is presenting “Our

In 1998, the Duxbury Beach Reservation, Inc. buried eight
16-foot-long stainless steel rods along the beach from the Pa-
vilion parking lot (Blakeman’s) to Plum Hills (near Gurnet-
Saquish). Twice a year, Geo/Plan Associates takes measurements
at these locations. Dr. Rosen, a coastal geologist, professor at
Northeastern University, and a principal in Geo/Plan, will speak

profiles. He will also describe the processes that created Dux-

Library hours cut back DBMS open

By Susanna Sheehan, Clipper Staff
susanna@duxburyclipper.com
Due to budget cuts, library
patrons can expect the Dux-
bury Free Library to be open
only twenty Sundays from Oc-
tober to May, a reduction from
the current 30 Sunday sched-
ing the school year.
A shrinking budget also
will mean reduced custodial
services at the library. The two
library custodians will not lose
any work hours but will be
employed at other town build-
ings, allowing them to be used
ally. These funds are used to
purchase materials and create
programming, said Winquist.
They are not used for salaries
or building maintenance.
In her capital budget, Win-
quist is requesting $2,000 this
year and for the next two years

Board of Selectmen this week,
library director Elaine Win-
quist explained that a $20,000
cut in her budget will result in
the Sunday closures as well as
reduced custodial services for
the library.
Winquist said the library
plans to be open on “our busi-
est Sundays.”
Due to budget cuts in
2005, the library was forced
to close on Sundays during
the summer as well as remain
shuttered on Monday morn-
ings throughout the year. Win-
quist said she looks forward
to the days when there will be
enough money in her budget
to re-open on all Sundays dur-
ple are coming to the library
than ever before. Every week,
4,500 people use the library
and over 10,500 residents hold
library cards, she said. Circu-
lation, programming and other
library services, such as online
subscriptions and public com-
puter use, have all increased
between ten to 80 percent.
To meet the demand, the
library depends on funding
sources outside of its town
budget, said Winquist. The
Duxbury Free Library, Inc.,
a charitable organization,
will give the library a grant
of $45,000, and the Friends
of the Library raises between
$10,000 to $15,000 annu-

Water rates increase

continued from page one
conservation efforts while those
who fall in tiers three and four
will be responsible for funding
their own high consumption
rates,” stated a Water Depart-
ment memo. “It is the intention
of this tiered rate schedule to
promote conservation to fulfill
Department of Environmental
Protection requirements with-
out the town falling short of its
obligation to cover operating
expenses.”
There was some debate
over the degree of impact the
new rates will have on the av-
erage ratepayer. Selectman can-
didate Will Zachmann claimed
that under the new rates, some
water bills would be going up
between ten and twenty per-
cent. He wanted to know the
overall amount that the rate
increase would bring into the
Water Department.
“It would be appropriate to
do a rate calculation and show
how much you’re to get over-
all,” said Zachmann. “The bot-
tom line is a new rate structure
will cost people more.”
According to Water De-
partment office manager Chris
Smythe, the percentage is much
smaller.
She said that under the
new rates, a senior citizen us-
ing an average of 30,000 gal-
lons of water a year will pay
$5.40 more, or a 3.3 percent
increase, for a total annual bill
of $169.22. This includes the
base fee.
A non-senior citizen us-
ing 21,000 gallons a year will
pay $210.94, also an addi-
tional $5.40, or a 2.7 percent
increase.
“We’re trying to break
even and conserve water,” said
Selectmen Chairwoman Betsy
Sullivan, adding that water
rates have not increased since
2004. “The purpose is to cover
the expenses of the Water De-
partment.”
This year, $300,000 of Wa-
ter Department retained earn-
ings had to be used to balance
the current $3.1 million bud-
get. This practice goes against
Finance Director John Mad-
den’s mantra of making sure
that “ongoing revenues pay
for ongoing expenses” and not
using accumulated savings to
balance budgets. Without a rate
increase, the Water Department
would be running a deficit of
more than $334,000 by fiscal
year 2012, Madden said.
“It’s a dynamic problem,”
said selectman candidate
Shawn Dahlen, explaining that
the Water Department has fixed
costs but its revenue can fluctu-
ate because when water users
conserve water, the town re-
ceives less revenue.
Selectman Jon Witten asked
Department of Public Works di-
rector Peter Buttkus why there
were no increases to services
charges and system develop-
New rates
Annual base charge increases
from $65.44 to $80 and from
$32.72 to $40 for seniors.
The current three-tier rate
structure:
0-60,000 gallons - $4.37 per
1,000 gallons;
61,000 to 120,000 gallons -
$5.80 per 1,000 gallons
121,000 + gallons - $7.16 per
1,000 gallons
New four tier rate structure:
0-20,000 gallons - $4.55 for
1,000 gallons
21-60,000 gallons - $5.83 per

ment. He felt that developers
should pay more to hook into
Duxbury water than they are
currently being charged. Butt-
kus said he had not considered
altering these rates but would
look into it.
The new water rates were
recommended by the Water
Advisory Board as well as the
Fiscal Advisory Committee
and were chosen from a vari-
ety of options prepared by an
outside consultant hired by the
town to study the rates.

Volunteer Outreach: This month’s charity is Friends of the
Homeless of the South Shore. This is an organization that pro-
vides emergency housing to families in need. They also work
with state and local agencies to get these families affordable
permanent housing. When these families do get housing, they
have very little in the way of home goods. Please consider do-
nating these gently used items: Lamps, dishes, pot and pans,
bed linens and towels. Contact Christine Sovik, by telephone at
781-934-2082 or e-mail csovik@comcast.net to set up a time to
drop off the items. The donations will be delivered to Friends of
the Homeless on Feb. 28.   Macdonald

later amended in 2004 to in-

the age was raised to 16.
Tearse wants to raise pub-

up with some ideas for a more

officers to give certificates for

Life Insurance:
Can You Afford To Wait?
Critical decisions, such as buying a home, getting married or hav-
ing children, require deliberate, thoughtful consideration. Indeed,
the outcome of any one of these decisions can
irrevocably change your life for better or worse.
But, delaying the purchase of life insurance can
be a costly mistake for you and your loved ones.
Waiting just a few years can have a negative
impact on several key areas of a life insurance
policy.
Whole Life Insurance: Financial Protection
Plus Cash Value Accumulation
In its simplest form, whole life insurance pro-
tects the people who depend on you for finan-

tomorrow. Aside from providing money to your
beneficiaries to replace your income, whole life
insurance also offers guaranteed* cash value accumulation on a tax-
deferred basis, as long as the policy remains in force. If available, cash
value can be borrowed against to fund a child’s education, supplement
your retirement income, or meet an emergency cash need. Remember,
policy loans accrue interest at the current variable loan interest rate
and reduce the total cash value and total death benefit by the amount
of the outstanding loan and accrued loan interest.
The Effects of Waiting
Since a portion of the premiums paid accumulates cash value each
year, over the long term, cash value accumulation can be considerable,
especially since taxes on the growth are deferred. Generally speaking,
the sooner you start paying policy premiums, the faster your cash
value may accumulate.
A whole life policy is also eligible to receive dividends, if and when
declared by the insurance issuer. Unlike cash values, dividends are not
guaranteed and are subject to change by the insurer. In addition, past
dividends are not indicative of future dividends. As a policyholder,
you have several options for dividends usage. You can take dividend
distributions in cash or apply dividends to add insurance coverage
through the purchase of paid-up additional life insurance. Paid-up
insurance is also eligible for dividends, has cash value and requires no
tunity to increase the benefit paid to your beneficiaries.
Although you’re healthy now, you decide to delay purchasing whole
life insurance for five years. In five years, you may suffer an unexpect-
ed health condition, which may place your insurability in jeopardy.
In the worst-case scenario, if you were to die in the next five years, the
cost of waiting would be the death benefit your beneficiaries would
not receive.
Remember, purchasing life insurance is a major decision. So, it’s im-
portant to take the time to gather all the necessary information and
choose the coverage that best suits your needs. While the decision is
up to you, keep in mind that postponing your decision can prove to
be costly.
*Guarantees backed by the claims paying ability of the issuer.

Buell running for School Committee
M
ayflower Street
resident Mary
Lou Buell, moth-
er of four and Weymouth High
School teacher, announced her
candidacy for the school com-
mittee, saying, “Every child in
Duxbury deserves a 21st cen-
tury education.”
“Today’s students are chil-
dren of the 21st century. They
will not succeed by solely
learning content—it’s rapidly
changing. Our children need
the skills that will enable them
to learn, unlearn and relearn
evolving subject matter. As a
teacher, I am in the trenches of
21st-century education every
day. I look forward to bringing
that perspective to the table.”
Buell’s teaching experi-
ence will bring a fresh ap-
proach to the committee as
it steers the system through
tough budget cycles, the search
for a superintendent, improved
communications between par-
ents, teachers and administra-
tors and contemporary educa-
tion challenges.
Buell’s teaching creden-
tials give her unique insight
into allocation of resources in
the school budget.  “The most
important factor in whether or
not our students learn is the
classroom teacher.  The school

G
ary Magnuson
has announced his
candidacy for the
Duxbury School Committee.
Gary, his wife Sarah, and two
children, Ashley and Erik, are
ten-year residents of Duxbury.
“When we relocated to the
Boston area, we chose Dux-
bury because of the town’s
rich history, recreation, and
commitment to high quality
public education. With good
leadership, smart decision
making and community sup-
port, we can be one of the very
best school systems in Mas-
sachusetts,” said Magnuson.
“The Duxbury schools are at
a critical crossroad and face
many important and difficult
decisions. I am a candidate for
School Committee because I
can help meet these challeng-
es.”
“As the parent of DMS
and DHS students, I have ex-
perienced the many wonderful
opportunities that our schools
provide, including the award
winning musical groups, and
the State Championship soc-
cer team. While our commu-
nity is proud of our athletic
and musical accomplishments,
Duxbury should have state
championship level academic
achievement as well,” Magnu-
son said.

Buell recognizes the need
of the School Committee to
set the course for the school
system but also to reflect the
pride and values of the com-
munity at large. The first task
awaiting new school commit-
tee members is selecting a new
superintendent.  Buell says the
make-up of the committee is
crucial to Duxbury attracting
and employing a highly quali-
fied candidate.   “Superinten-
dents want to work with school
committee members who can
see the big picture—who be-
gin with the end in mind.”
Buell earned a BA in jour-
nalism from American Uni-
versity, and a M.Ed from the
University of Massachusetts,
difficult decisions and I stand
as a candidate with no “hid-
den agendas,” he said. Mag-
nuson acknowledges that with
two new School Committee
members, a superintendent
search, potential future build-
ing projects, and the current
budgetary pressures, signifi-
cant challenges face the Com-
mittee. “The selection of a
new superintendent provides
an opportunity for a fresh start
with a professional educator
who can bring our schools to
the next level,” he added. “Al-
though schools are a lot more
than just buildings we need to
address our aging facilities in
a fiscally responsible manner.
I will bring experience, leader-
ship, communication and col-
laboration to the Committee
to help the Duxbury Schools
succeed.”

dent at Citizens Financial

DA rules against School Committee
continued from page one
to refrain from having any pri-
vate meetings in the future.
The meeting of Sept. 23
was deemed by committee
members a “workshop” meet-
ing and was held in a room at
the high school, rather than the
group’s normal meeting place
at the Alden School. At the be-
ginning of the meeting, School
Committee Chairman George
Cipolletti asked two reporters
ports and an eyewitness state-
ment.
She said that even in the
letter from the attorney, the
district was admitting a vio-
lation of the law because it
stated Cipolletti had asked re-
porters and the camerawoman
to leave.
“The law could not be
clearer” she wrote. “It is im-
permissible for the Committee
even to ask any person to leave

that the committee had the
right not to record the meet-
ing. Although board members
threatened to cancel the meet-
ing at an additional cost to the
taxpayers, a Clipper reporter
was allowed to stay after he
refused to leave.

The purpose of the meet-
ing was to work through some
of the differences and conflicts
between board members that
had been arising at public meet-
ings. Some members argued
that the constant criticism of
the superintendent amounted
to “micro management,” while
others said they were elected
to speak for the parents.
Lee based her decision on
information provided by the
school’s attorney, media re-

In July, a group of teenag-
ers from Holy Family Parish
will give up a week of their
summer vacation to travel
hundreds of miles in cramped
vans, sleep on the floor of an
old school or hospital, to help
change the lives of people
whom they have never met,
but who are in great need. For
each of the past seven years,
teenagers have participated
terferes with and essentially

to be present.”
Lee also dispelled the no-
tion that the meeting was a
“workshop” not covered by
Open Meeting Law, although
she noted the committee
had essentially conceded the
point.
“Anytime the School
Committee discusses any pub-
lic business or public policy
matter over which it has su-
pervision, control, jurisdiction
or advisory power, the discus-
sion constitutes a meeting,”
Lee wrote.
Lee also expressed con-
cern over a notion voiced at
the workshop, namely that the
committee should share con-
cerns with the superintendent
and the chairman prior to the
dreds of families, living far
below the poverty level, apply

The Alliance of The First Parish Church
invites everybody to a Pot Luck Supper at 6:00pm followed by
The Best of Broadway
Presented by Jack Craig
Music - With Class!
Saturday - February 27th - 7:00pm
Program begin at 7:15pm
From ‘Second Hand Rose’ (1921) through ‘Send in the Clowns’ (1973),
the songs in this program celebrate the high point of American
musical theatre. Standout productions like ’Showboat’, ‘South Pacific’,
‘My Fair Lady’, and ‘Hello Dolly’ are all included as well as unique hits
from writers such as Noel Coward, Kurt Weill, and Irving Berlin. The
program concentrates on the “golden age of musicals” by Rodgers and
Hammerstein, Lerner and Loewe, and Stephen Sondheim - but all of
the 28 songs we will be singing are classics!
Please bring a dish to share for the supper. Fellowship is the order
of the day. Questions please call Polly Lanman 781-934-5412 or

Time to
say our
goodbyes
I
t is with great sadness we announce that our
publisher, David Sumner Cutler, has been forced
to step back from his duties here at the Clipper. In
early fall David began treatment for a metastasized cancer.
However the cancer is now progressing, treatment is no
longer effective,
and David is now
making the most
of his remaining
days in peaceful
communion
with family and
friends.
As many of
our longtime readers know, David is both a native son of
Duxbury and one of its strongest advocates. His parents John
and Bobbie started the Clipper almost 60 years ago and it has
remained a family enterprise ever since.
It is not our intention here to herald and highlight David’s
many accomplishments and talents. We’ll leave that for
another day. But we know that many of our readers would
like to send David and his family their best wishes and
words of encouragement—perhaps even share a cherished
memory or two of their time with David. To that purpose,
David’s family has set up a Web site where you can post your
sentiments, offer encouragement, share memories or just say
‘hi!’ We will endeavor to make sure all postings are read to
David.
You can reach David at: www.caringbridge.org/visit/

All his life David has loved Duxbury. Now we can let
him know the feeling is mutual.

The truth about North Hill ————————
T
his is an attempt to
correct some mis-
information about
North Hill Golf Club. (The
North Hill Golf Club, a course
owned by the town of Duxbury,
is now being operated by John-
son Golf Management, Inc.
under an order issued by Judge
Herman Smith of the Middle-
sex Court, that “Johnson Golf
continue to manage and oper-
ate North Hill under the terms
of its previous contract until
the above captioned case is re-
solved or further order of this
court.” The case is over the
bidding process of the new con-
tract. Johnson has been operat-
ing the course on a temporary
basis for over a year.)
A new computerized irriga-
tion system was put in by the
town, not by Johnson Manage-
ment, and a new clubhouse was
built to Duxbury specifications
as part payment for the ten-year
lease contract with Johnson
Management. The building has
been owned by Duxbury since
its inception.
The town of Duxbury has
spent over a million dollars for
improvements at North Hill.
Other improvements include a
new cart barn with fenced-in
area, the purchase and instal-
lation of a new pump station,
new 40’ x 60’ metal mainte-
nance building, above-ground
fuel depot (gas and diesel), pes-
ticide storage vault, and new
tees on holes one, four, seven,
and eight, all sand traps rebuilt,
new handicap parking at club-
house level, a new parking lot
built and paved, and over 1,000’
of asphalt cart paths installed.
There were several discrep-
ancies and violations of the ten-
Don’t skimp on CPA funds ————————
I
read with interest Mr.
Cipoletti’s editorial in
the Feb. 10 edition of
the Clipper. There is the sug-
gestion that taxes could be in-
creased, perhaps through an
operational override, to meet
the ever increasing challenges
of our educational system.
Mr. Cipoletti suggests that we
have a “short” moratorium on
CPA funding to meet this need.
There is no question that we
have a responsibility to pro-
vide a sound education in an
environment that in conducive
to learning and creativity, but
at the loss of a program that
has served our community so
well? The CPA was largely
enacted to protect our natural
resources and remove property
from development; growth that
places additional demands on
our schools, services, and re-
sources. CPA funds were used
to purchase the Delano proper-
ty that was undergoing review
for a 51 unit 40B development.
It now houses an affordable
single family home and group

year contract.
The management compa-
ny eliminated coupon books,
raised the price of the coupon
book, and overcharged junior
members on green fees. In
2009 after the court ordered
an extension of the contract,
all membership fees were in-
creased.
The management firm was
to have a team consisting of a
class “A” professional who was
to supervise all golf play, man-
age the pro shop and golf repair,
and oversee a starter and ranger
who were to be employed from
may to September. This was
not done.
A plan to handle 18-hole
play, used for many years, was
cancelled by Johnson and no
alternative put in place.
The Duxbury Clipper quot-
ed an e-mail sent Feb. 22, 2009
by Johnson to Gordon Cush-
ing, Recreation Director: “I’m
the bully who took a dump of
a golf course and a clubhouse
filled with drunks and druggies
and invested to make it into a
first class facility.” There were
no drunks or druggies that I
was aware of, and it was the
town that invested.
The contract stated he was
to maintain all facilities, build-
ings and grounds at North Hill.
All buildings need paint and lit-
tle has been done for ten years
until the last few months of the
contract. Some of the buildings
need work and some of the cart
paths are dangerous to use.
The course was given to
Johnson Management in good
condition and was the best
nine-hole course in the area
with a sold-out membership
and a waiting list every year.
home for handicapped adults.
CPA money, in combination
with funds from the Wildlands
Trust, private donations and an
agricultural grant preserved the
O’Neil Farm; one of the few
remaining dairy farms in south-
eastern Massachusetts. This
property could have supported
an 11 lot subdivision or possi-
bly 22 lots under Chapter 40B.
The Berrybrook and Jaycox
properties, which now support
agriculture, could have been de-
veloped for eight more homes,
or at least twice as many under
Chapter 40B. For every dollar
that a modest new home pays in
taxes, it costs twice that amount
to provide municipal services
to that home. Imagine the im-
pact that 80 new homes would
have on our schools! Mr. Cipo-
letti refers to the Wayland and
Lincoln-Sudbury districts as
the benchmarks to which Dux-
bury compares. These are CPA
communities! Lincoln-Sudbury
is looking for an override this
year to meet the overcrowding
in their schools and Wayland

The Deadline for all

is Monday at noon.
The previous management
team did a great job in mar-
keting North Hill for residents
of Duxbury from beginners to
seasoned golfers. No junior
was ever turned away due to
lack of funds.
Today, 13 years later, with
all the money the town has
spent, the membership has de-
clined and the tee times are
about the same as ten years
ago.
If North Hill is to be rated
as one of the best nine-hole
golf courses, we need a man-
ager who doesn’t violate the
contract, doesn’t alienate or
disparage the North Hill golf-
er, doesn’t say a “small group
of members” had preferential
treatment on 18-hole play when
they followed standard policy
available to any golfer.
The North Hill Advisory
Committee, all volunteers,
should not be involved in a
lawsuit for giving suggestions
for the Requests For Proposal.
Many residents made sugges-
tions to the town manager on
what should be in the RFP, but
the RFP is the sole responsibil-
ity of the town manager and no
one else.
Johnson Golf Management
is now suing or has sued the
towns of Abington, Auburn,
Beverly, New Bedford, and
Boston as well as Duxbury over
contracts. It has also had dis-
putes with Hingham. All suits
have been or are being heard in
Middlesex Court.
The management of North
Hill for the past ten years leaves
a lot to be desired.
Robert E. Doyle
Old Cove Road
is planning to renovate or re-
place its High School. Recog-
nizing the impact of growth,
these communities have used
CPA funds to take land out of
development. What is most in-
triguing is that Moody’s Inves-
tor Rating Service positively
recognizes Duxbury’s and
Wayland’s CPA Funds because
it provides towns with an addi-
tional degree of financial flex-
ibility! The Community Pres-
ervation Committee reviewed
at least a dozen proposals this
year and five will be presented
at the Annual Town Meeting;
requesting a total in appropria-
tions of $500,000. We have
managed our financials well
and expect a fund balance of
$2.3 million for FY 2010 for
each of the three purposes; open
space, historic preservation and
affordable housing. Building
up our reserves will put us in a
more favorable position for the
future.

Dragons take on Oliver Ames
Hope to top Tigers again in Division ll South Sectional opener
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
It doesn’t always work out
this way, but Duxbury Coach
ÃÌ>ÌiÃ
Gordon Cushing should have
a pretty good idea what it will
take to knock off Oliver Ames
in the first round of the MIAA
Division II South Sectional on
Wednesday night in Duxbury.
Having beaten the Tigers
(72-55) in the first round of the
IAABO Tournament just 10
days ago at Bridgewater State,
there should be no surprises
like last year’s opener against
the Academy of Public Service
(Dorchester High School).
The 15th seeded Bears
came into town and throt-
tled the Dragons with a dy-
namic trio that scored 65 of
Dorchester’s 77 points.
While OA doesn’t present
that kind of explosive offense,
they do have sophomore Nick
Bruha, who was good for 17
Girls 4th in States
By Mike Halloran, Sports Editor
sports@duxburyclipper.com
The Duxbury girls’ swim
team took fourth place at
Sunday’s Division II State
finals at the Blodgett Pool at
Harvard University.
Wayland High School
dominated the field to win the
title with 233 points, while
Weston (202), Marblehead
(115), Duxbury (112), and
Northampton (95) rounded
out the top five.
Duxbury’s first points
came in the 100-yard back-
stroke, as Kaitlin Buckley
took fifth-place in 1:01.21,
finishing behind Patriot
League and Middleboro star

What Are Friends For?

laine Winquist, Duxbury
Free Library Director, told
me I should check them
out, the Friends of the Duxbury Free
Library – the Friends. I swear she
had a twinkle in her eye, and she was
certainly beaming. She used words
like “fun” and “energy” and “laughs.”
Apparently, the world of serious
volunteer library support is not the
stodgy, dusty wasteland I might have
suspected. Had I not been inadvertently

points in a losing effort, along
with 6’4” Mason Pires, who
did some solid work on the
boards throughout the first
half.
Playing in the always
tough Hockomock League,
the Tigers had an incredible
advantage in the first quarter
when they played the Drag-
ons, but couldn’t capitalize
on its 10-1 foul advantage in
the first quarter that saw Dux-
bury’s 6’7” Aaron Kramer get
whistled for two quick fouls in
the first 1:30.
Ending the first eight min-
utes of play trailing by two
(17-15), Duxbury showed
plenty of confidence despite
their adversity and slowly got
back in the game by stopping
OA’s easy transition game.
“Sure there is the thought
about our kids being over-
confident, but I think there
are enough of them here from
Janelle McDonald, who won
the event in :59.72.
Sarah Goldberg was the
next point scorer for Dux-
bury, as she took sixth-place
in the 200-yard freestyle with
a time of 1:58.53, six sec-
onds off the pace set by All-
American winner Sara Li of
Longmeadow, who covered
the distance in 1:52.13.
The Lady Dragons turned
in excellent performances in
the relays where they scored
most of their points, finishing
fifth in the 200-yard medley
relay, fifth in the 200-yard
freestyle relay, and second to
Weston in the 400-yard free-
style relay.
WHAT’S GOING
ON HERE?
left behind by a series of unforeseen
excuses, I would have interviewed
current Friends President Sarah
Keating, or Deborah Hill Bornheimer,
the group’s founder (with “a team
of dedicated volunteers” in 1976).

Fourth Friday film series

The Duxbury Free Li-
brary’s next film in the Fourth
Friday Film series, “Volver”
directed by Pedro Amnodovar
will screen on Friday, Feb. 26
at 7 p.m. in the Merry Room,
library lower level. Anyone
with questions about Pené-
lope Cruz’s talent as an actor
will have all the answers after
watching this film. Almodó-
var treads familiar ground and
works with some of his favor-
ite actresses—including Car-
men Maura, Lola Dueñas, and
Chus Lampreave—to create a
film of genuine emotional res-
onance. The film is rated R.
Film screenings are pre-
ceded and followed by lively
discussion led by Prof. Man-
drell. Admission is free and
refreshments are available.
March 26: Songcatch-
er (USA 2000) dir. Maggie
Greenwald. 109 mins. PG-13.
Although somewhat anach-
ronistic, the music and Janet
McTeer’s pitch-perfect perfor-
mance more than make up for
whatever is less than apt for
the period. With Pat Carrol
and Aidan Quinn, as well as a
surprisingly affecting Emmy
Rossum in her first feature
film.
April 23: Ma vie en rose /
My Life in Pink (France 1997)
dir. Alain Berliner 88 mins.
Rated R. A family with a secret
that it tries desperately to keep
under wraps. Eventually, ev-
erything comes out—doesn’t
it always?—and everyone has
to make a choice about what is
important to them and why. A
subtle and sweet film with 13-
year-old Georges Du Fresne
in a remarkable debut perfor-
mance.
May 28: Next Stop Won-
derland (USA 1998) dir. Brad
Anderson. 104 mins. Rated
R. Who says that a mother
doesn’t know best? Who bet-
ter to place a personal ad for
her single daughter in a local
paper? Yet another romantic
comedy with the advantage
of terrific writing, outstanding
performances, and a Boston
location. Not to be missed.
