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.

of Route 28 last November
in the Centerville Chain Saw
Massacre , howls rose from
public official and such diverse
wounded parties as area resi-

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.
