Airport appointment
receives challenger
Add the name Tom Dolby
to those to be considered
as the next member of the
Barnstable Airport Commis-
sion.
Dolby, the former school
committee chairman and
COMM water commissioner,
was nominated from the
town council floor last week
by Councilor Greg Milne.
The name coming out of
the council's appointments
committee for that posi-
tion was Daniel Santos of
Centerville. Santos has ex-
perience with the cleanup of
the Massachusetts Military
Reservation.
Dolby was interviewed for
the position by the appoint-
ments committee. The final
vote on the appointment is
expected at the council's
Aug. 17 meeting.
Osterville Councilor Jim
Crocker asked that the
nomination for the board
of health be postponed to
allow the appointments
committee time to consider
other candidates. While
he commended the quali-
fications of the nominee,
Junichi Sawayanagi of West
Barnstable, Crocker noted
the importance of the three-
member board and the
need to consider a variety of
candidates.
Youth Center request
moves to $18M
What was to be a $2 mil-
lion addition to the Hyannis
Youth and Community
Center project is now a $3
million request.
The town manager is
proposing to reallocate $3
million from the Barnstable
Unified Transportation
and Parking System for the
construction of the youth
center, moving the overall
appropriation to $18 million.
As originally outlined, $2
millionfrom the BUTAPS
project was to be moved,
but after meeting with coun-
cilors on the project , the
request was increased.
A public hearing on the
request is scheduled for the
council's Aug. 17 meeting.
Visit the Pilot House
The Pilot House shelter
at 120 Yarmouth Road in
Hyannis will host an open
house Tuesday from 4 to 6
p.m.
The new location includes
not only shelter services
for homeless people who
are dealing with substance
abuse and mental illness
problems but also a transi-
tional residential program
for those who have been so-
ber for at least six months.
Church appeals to
higher authority
Our Lady of Victory
Church will be before the
Old King's Highway Region-
al Historic District Com-
mission Tuesday to appeal
the Barnstable committee's
denial of a certificate of
approval for landscaping
and parking changes at Our
Lady of Hope Chapel in West
Barnstable.
The meeting will begin
at 7:45 p.m. 7:45 p.m. in the
community room of the
Yarmouthport Fire Station
on Route 6A.
Warnings issued hy
licensing board
Bud's Place and La
Paz Surf Cantina, both in
Hyannis, received warnings
from the licensing authority
Monday after show-cause
hearings.
The board found that
Bud's management had not
exercised "a high degree of
supervision over the con-
duct of the licensed estab-
lishment"in May when a
fight broke out over who had
the next turn at a pool table.
Although a staff member
separated the quarreling
parties and the dispute ap-
peared to be settled , when
one man attempted to play
he was struck by the other
with a pool cue and injured
seriously. Bud's has since
removed the pool tables.
(In an unrelated matter,
the venue will reduce its
occupancy to a maximum of
99, thus avoiding the need
for a full sprinkler system
under a new state law. Part
of the club will be made into
a storeroom.)
Surf Cantina's owners ad-
mitted they were overcrowd-
ed the night a police officer
stopped in after reportedly
seeing a drink being passed
from an outdoor seating
area to someone standing on
the sidewalk.They received
warnings for the overcrowd-
ing and the passed drink,
One of the owners objected
to what he described as the
aggressive manner of the
officer.
The third show-cause
hearing was for The Wind-
jammer, now known as the
Wianno Grille, and action
was postponed until Aug. 7.
That's to give owner David
Peckham and attorney John
Kenney time to straighten
out the snarled licensing
situation that led to charges
of failing to post a license
and permits to operate the
business. The state Alco-
holic Beverage Control Com-
mission told Kenney the
license transfer has been ap-
proved months ago, he said,
but the paperwork remains
in Boston.

looked blissful as they bobbed around.
I enjoyed wandering about listening to
all the spiels watching with enthusiasm
as kids played the games and sometimes
won. The Rising Waters game seemed to
be the most popular. The goal was to be
the first to get the water to the top of the
tube using a water pistol.
We had a bite to eat and sat in one of
several picnic areas where we had an
opportunity to watch the crowds. Along
came a person in a crazy hat he had won
in a bowling game. Other colorful won-
ders were tall humans dressed in bright
animal costumes playfully interacting
with the children. A clown was bopping
about trying to get even the poutiest
child to laugh.
After our snack we wandered along to
see the 4-H drill team , eight girls on their
horses putting the beasts through their
paces. Once the drill was done they wan-
dered over to the fence where we had an
opportunity to pet the horses. One came
right up to me and bobbed her head,
seeking the attention that her owner says
she loves.
We then went over to the demolition
derby where old beat-up cars were bash-
ing each other around , crashing and spin-
ning in a whirlpool of dust. Heat number
one even featured a woman driver, though
she did not win.
By this time , The Wild West was calling
us where a Conestoga wagon rested be-
side an open wood fire. Corn in
the husk was being grilled and
the cook was giving out samples
of corn bread he had made on
the fire. One could even pan for
gold like the '49ers and get up
to $5 worth of gold , if luck held
out.
It was time to hit the agri-
cultural area where many farm
animals, such as cows , alpaca ,
goats , horses and more , plus
a variety of poultry including
hatching chicks , were on view.
Sheep wearing blankets piqued
our curiosity. We were told that
when the sheep were sheared
in the shearing contest they
were then washed and put into
blankets to keep them clean for
the show. To us they looked as if
they were getting ready for bed ,
which was sounding like a good
idea at this point. We were get-
ting tired.
Two more rides and we were
on our way back home after
an interesting experience. The
sheets awaited us and we were
ready to hit them.
The Barnstable County Fair continues
through Saturday at the fairgrounds on
Route 151 in East Falmouth.
