their defense, and Maloney's
game-winningbucket was the
only field goal for either team
the rest of the way.
With the home crowd on
its feet throughout the final
three minutes, Barnstable
made one-of-two free throws
on consecutive tripsto the line
to take 69-68 lead. Marshfield
took its final lead with a min-
ute to go before Maloney and
Pane sent the faithful home
happy.
Donovan praised Marsh-
field' s play, but also his own
club's.
"We're pressing with guys
that I don't think are that
athletic, but they play with a
lot of heart," he said, "which
is almost better."
Junior Donny Campbell led
the Raiders with 17 points,
and Klotz and Pane each
added 12. Maloney had 10,
Norton 8, senior Zack Lowe
6, Moran 5, senior Patrick
Sullivan 2, and Riley 1.
The win evened Barnsta-
ble's record at 7-7, and 3-2 in
the Old Colony League, with
league-leading Taunton com-
ing to Hyannis tonight. The
Raiders need to win three of
their six remaining contests
to secure a state tournament
berth.

1946
We wonder how many of
our readers are beginning
to dread picking up a daily
paper for fear of finding on
the front page a photograph
of some dear little WarBride,
her little tot in her arms, and
her dear little G.I. husband
standingfatuously alongside.
We are not Anglophobes ,
isolationists , misogynists,
misogamists, or in anyway
anti-social. We welcome the
warbrideto America.Wehope
she'll be happy here among
us. We admire her spirit and
the strength of her devotion
toherhusbandin breaking all
her home ties to start a new
life inaforeign land. Wedo not
castigate her for the plethora
of infantile cheesecake. We
do hope that when she sees
a newspaper photographer
she'll run like anything.
1956
First reaction of most
Barnstable residents when
they learn of the proposal to
set up a trailer park and the
district back ofthe Barnstable
MunicipalAirportisdirect and
simple - "Phooey on that"...
they say.Then when they hear
more about it and learn that
the idea is to get the trailers
out of scattered backyards
throughout the town and to
some place where they are
inconspicuous and manage-
able, most persons change
their minds. At a meeting in
Barnstable last week it was
the almost unanimous opin-
ion that the idea of creating
the trailer park is sound, but
whethertheproposed location
is the best site available was
another matter.The decision
wasnot without humor."Why
are they trying to push the
district overinto Barnstable,"
it was remarked. "If they are
having complaints in Oster-
ville, let them take care of it
over there. Let them set up a
trailer park district in Oyster
Harbors -that would go over
big."Thismoved another wag
to observe that "Yarmouth
and Dennis seemed not to
mind trailer parks -why not
set up Barnstable's down in
one of their towns."
1966
Grammy Edwards, Ibi Ed-
wards, and Mrs. Basil Duke
Edwards Sr. Are like me,
myself and I - one person.
And no one person could be
more humane than Mrs. Ed-
wards. Once she was a sum-
mer resident of Barnstable
of Barnstable, but not she
lives her year round and is
contending with the rigors of
our typical Cape Cod winter.
This week she found herself
in something of a quandary
... her pipes were frozen.
When the plumber arrived to
investigate, he told her that
herpipescertainlywerefrozen
and would continue to be un-
lessthe skunkor skunksliving
in her cellar ceased chewing
away at the house founda-
tion. These little black and
white polecats had a made
hole big enough to get in and
keep warm,and big enough to
expose the pipes to the cold
February nights.
1976
Thevotetopurchaseortake
the 1,080-acre conservation
area in West Barnstable oc-
curred almost a decade ago.
Followingthevote,Barnstable
Selectmen never signed 'an
order of taking," but decided
instead to work out negoti-
ated purchases. Without the
taking order, however, prices
werenot frozen. Despite rapid
progress inthe beginning,the
project becametangledbythe
death oftheprincipalattorney
and was nearly abandoned
when SelectmanJohn Aylmer
moved on to the senate. But
this spring, the conservation
area will be back before the
town meeting. But with 182
acres of those acres still held
privately, and only $90,000
left in the conservation area
fund, town meeting will have
to raise a considerable sum
of money to finish the town's
acquisition of the land.
1986
Is the building boom con-
tinuing? Yesit is.But the pic-
ture has changed. Although
some 90 fewer homes were
builthere lastyear,their value
wasup $2million,And overall,
thevalueofconstructioninthe
town of Barnstable increased
$11.8millionwhilethe number
units built dropped by al-
most 60.New home construc-
tion rose in Centerville, West
Barnstable and Hyannis.
1996
The reintroduction of Dr.
EdwardTynanasBarnstable's
interim superintendent ol
schools - a position he held
for 23 years -is a bittersweet
reunion. Embroiled in the
largest budgetary dilemma
ever faced by the town, the
school committee called upon
Tynan after the resignation
of Dr. Albert Davidian, who
replaced Tynaninthe summer
of 1994 assuperintendent.The
resignation, while coming at
a tense and emotional time,
is largely viewed as the best
course of action, given the
circumstances, by members
of the school committee and
town council.

on the classic 19-foot boat
constructed in 1886 by Os-
terville's Herbert F.Crosby,
now sitting out in front of
the Hyannis museum.
After the better part of a
year's work in the museum's
boat shop, Sarah clearly
reveals her unique lines.
With her oak timber molds
framed with hull length
inch-and-a-half spruce rib-
bands, the rake, sheer and
beam of the boat marks
Sarah as a member of one
of the most popular sailing
work boat designs ever to
ply local waters. The soon-
to-be-attached garboards ,
which connect to the lowest
part of the keel at the port
and starboard stem, are, like
the rest of the outside hull
planking, made of cypress.
This is an extremely rot
resistant and durable wood
that once grew in abun-
dance on Cape Cod.
Mature heartwood pieces
of cypress are difficult
to find anymore, even in
areas away from the Cape.
The museum was indeed
fortunate to acquire some
seasoned one-inch think,
two-inch-wide, old growth
pieces from a smalltown in
Florida. This wood will be
used for the strakes that will
sheath Sarah' s hull.
The next stages of the
project , which is funded by a
Federal Institute for Mu-
seum and Library Services
grant, will see Sarah fully
planked and decked. Her
cabin will be finished so that
she can handle four to six
sailors who will learn first
hand the various aspects
of handling a sailingvessel
that would have been part
of the education of most
19th century men on Cape
Cod and the islands.
The boat's projected
launch date is expected to
be sometime before the end
of 2006.
