Early Files... CONTINUED FROM PAGE A:6 lower Cape district. A newsy, very readable little paper of genuine Cape origin and not aspurious subsidy of off-Cape interests,it shouldservewella section of Barnstable County that has long been neglected by the Fourth Estate. Wel- come, "The Cape Codder," and best of luck! 1956 Dark tragedy struck unex- pectedly on asunnyafternoon in OstervilleVillageyesterday when two boys died when fire burned out the interior of a home on Main Street lessthan 300 yards from the center of town. The victimswere Harry C. Rice, 5, son of Air Force Sergeant and Mrs. Harry Rice, and Paul Nese, 5 , son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter E. Nese. Authorities said the boys had been playingoutsidethe home which the Rice family had rented when Mr. And Mrs. Rice left shortly before the fire to go uptown on an errand. Apparently the fire started in the kitchen in the vicinity of a clothes drier and when the flames were discovered by a passerby the entire interior of the house was ablaze and flames were breaking out through the kitchen window, WilliamWhiteley,Jr.,35,one of the first Osterville fireman at the scene, donned agasmask and entered the rear of the house in an attempt to locate the children. A sudden burst offlames seriouslyburnedhim on the forehead and ears and he was forced back out of the building. 1966 Barnstable HighSchoolRed Raiders camewithin8seconds of suffering their first defeat at the hands of an on-Cape rivallast Saturday when they barely managed to gain a 1-1 tie with an upstart Falmouth squad. Barnstable 's unde- feated streak dating back to the Cape League'sinception, is an impressive 39-0-2. This streak was on the line last Saturday, as with 8 seconds left and the Raiders trailing 1-0, Kevin Sullivan scored on a blazing back hand shot to preserve the Raiders' skein. 1976 West Barnstable Fire Dis- trict has been rubbing buffa- loes off nickels since anyone there can remember, with the result that the village's 644 registered voters enjoy the lowest fire district tax rate in the town. But West Barn- stable's miserly approach to spendingtax dollarshasled to acorrespondinglyfrugal selec- tion of services.Thevillagefire station is so small, Fire Chief John Jenkinskeeps the village ambulance in his barn, and when the weather is cold, the village's enormous pumper mustbestoredlikewise.More- over, West Barnstable is the only village in town without its own water supply, so its 1000 and some odd residents must rely on a mixed bag of home well water, some of it good, some of it undrinkable, much of it hard and heavy with iron. 1986 In the wake of the fatal school bus accident in Mar- stons Millslast week,inwhich a six-year old girl was run over after disembarking the bus, the school committee will ask May town meeting for added school bus service that conceivablycouldinclude a second person on buses to monitor attendance and maintain discipline. The idea received major attention at a meeting last night at with some 150 parents and other discussed school bus safety with not only the school com- mittee but the state Registry of Motor Vehicles, police and a representative from the State Department of Educa- tion and Mass School Bus Contractors. - 1996 When Colonial Gas Co.,s tree-removal contractor swept along the north side of Route 28 last November in the Centerville Chain Saw Massacre , howls rose from public official and such diverse wounded parties as area resi- dents and the management of a shopping mall. The mission ofAllenbyTree and Landscape Service of East Falmouth was to clear the way for Colonial Gas's $200 ,000 project to replace its pipeline along a mile of state highway from WestMain Street to Old Stage Road.Theutilitycompanyhas agreed that more trees were removed than planned.
