story with others,becoming
an outspoken advocate for
the Thyroid Foundation and
collaborating with Dr.Larry
Wood, a Falmouth resident.
"I am workingwith Dr.Wood
to help other people deal
with these very silent, very
emotional symptoms they
are strickenwith,"saidBrad-
ley. "If this is happening to
me, there's no telling how
many women are dealing
with this every day."
While Bradley, now in the
LPGA Hall of Fame, still
relishes a great game of
golf, what she delights in
most is hearing from fans
who have also struggled
with thyroid disease. "I am
amazed at the number of
people that come up to
me and say, 'I have thyroid
disease, too!'" said Bradley.
"Knowing they weren't the
only ones let them know
there was hope."
Being able to use golf as a
means of raising awareness
of thyroid disorders issome-
thing Bradley considers a
blessing. "Golf bringspeople
together," she said of the
Oyster Harbors tournament.
"It'sone of the greatest ways
to spend four or five hours
with a group of people for a
good cause.
"The game has been so
great to me over the years. It
isbecause of the game of golf
that Ihave recovered. This is
my way to give back."

BHS Field Hockey
The girlsvarsityfield hockey
team notched another win
early this week when they
defeated Sandwich 2-1 on
MondayinSandwich.Theloss
wasthe first for the host team
all season.
Although the Blue Knights
had the earlylead, Barnstable
answered right back, tying
the game 1-1 with nine min-
utes left in the period when
Meaghan Delaney sent one
into the goal.
Two minutes later Lynne
Donohue clinched the win
for Barnstable when she sent
one in out of a scramble. The
win brought the Raiders to
7-1-1.
BMS Field Hockey
The Barnstable Middle
School field hockey team
downed Nauset thisweek 4-2
at home,with Olivia Costello
proving to be the star of the
match.
Costello, who is new to
the sport , was instrumental
in the win. Just before the
end of the first half, she was
sent a long shot hit by Ryan
Kalweit from just outside
his striking circle. Costello
took the ball past Nauset's
defense and into the goal for
an early lead.
The dynamite duo snagged
the second goal at 17:05 in
the second half, bringing
BMS to a 2-0 lead.
AlthoughNauset answered
with two goals of its own,
Barnstable was determined
to keep the lead and secure
the win.
The third goal for the
Raiders came from Alex
Hapenny and Lauren Logan
in an impressive thread-the-
needle play.
Barnstable clinched the
victory when Costello passed
one to Chelsea Hayes, who
wasted no time in sending
it into the net.
Defensively for BMS ,
Sarah Greene , MaryAJice
Machado , Katelyn Bess ,
and Madison Wolters were
stellar.

Council review committee...

for a two-year term in 2003.
In 2005, she was elected to a
four-year term.
She said this week that if a
reconfigured mode of election
could avoid that situation for
others, it would be a good
thing.
In 2005, there was a lot of
activity and discussionabout
creating a new charter com-
mission, with petitions being
taken out and circulated.
When health issues affected
one of the driving forces
behind that movement, the
charter drive went silent.
As detailed in the item, the
committee would be appoint-
ed by the council president ,
and would meet beginning
Nov. 1 and file its report by
Feb. 1, 2007.
Whilethe council couldhave
acted thisweek,it wasn't clear
whether the item would be
voted or held off to a future
meeting. Crocker said that
there seemed to be support
to move ahead to a vote.

wind is coming, so they can't
fly. Ijust admire them."
And Ranta worked withhis
bees,tendinghisfruit andveg-
etable gardens in the house
his father helped him build
just over the line from West
Barnstable inMarstonsMills.
The insects pollinated the
growing things while he gave
hands-on care, maintaining
the gardens organically.
"I never sold anything," he
said. "I gave it away.The bees
never charged me anything.
When you start dealing with
money, the good fellowship
disappears slowly."
Sometimes the documen-
tary showed Ranta sitting
down as he spoke , but he
seemed constantly on the
move, pointing out his wood
pile, holding up a mahogany
clock case he'd made,or show-
ingoffhandmade fishingplugs
in his workshop (and noting
that the tail on the end was
from a deer "locally shot.")
If the film left the impres-
sion that this was a man who
could find satisfaction on a
desert island,Rantadispelled
that notion when he rose to
speak Tuesday.
"One person alone can't do
it," he said of protecting the
Cape 's natural bounty. He
saluted BARS for "keeping
things on an even keel for
our resources ," even as he
mourned the local dearth of
wild birds, the scallop, and
the American eel.
"When you go to the polls,"
Ranta said, "think of the re-
sources as the primary thing.
We have some wonderful
resources here. We've got to
do a lot of hard work to keep
it going."
