Could this happen here?
School officials in the town of Rochester,
NH, are debating the future of Spaulding
High School's Native American mascot.
Superintendent Mike Hopkins is worried
that the "Red Raider" is politically incor-
rect and might become a civil rights issue
in the future.
The school board, however, is divided on
whether to continue usingthe symbol-the
profileofanAmericanIndianman'sface-and
the nickname on uniforms and apparel.
Apparently NH tribes are discussing the
matter. Some school board members are
hoping to hear from them regarding their
opinions of the mascot and name.
Complaints about the use of the Red
Raider have cropped up inthe past,includ-
ing in April of 2006 when an alumnus of the
school requested a change,statingthat the
mascot is "racist."
A publicforumto discussthe issueisbeing
looked at by the school board.
The Barnstable Red Raiders have been
such for more than five decades,sincebeing
so named by esteemed local sports writer
Ed Semprini.

one time he was adorned in war paint, but
inrecent years the paint has been removed.
There has alsobeen more widespread usage
of a more updated logo, the BHS "B" sur-

in pushing them over the
limit."
So what truly makes
them athletes? "We have
just as many risks as there
are in other sports," said
Demko. Almost all of those
on the team possess tum-
bling skills and several are
gymnasts. Nearly everyone
on the squad is capable of
turning an impressive back-
flip or back handspring,
including the sole man on
the team, Josh Capra.
While the team is cer-
tainly confident in their
strength and agility, they
feel it is their bond that
helps them achieve success.
"Everybody gets along so
well," said Andrea Camelio.
"We're not your typical
cheerleaders."
Demko echoed her senti-
ments as she continued ,
"This season we were much
closer. We all have our
groups that we hang out
with, but we hang out with
each other, too."
Indeed , the team enjoyed
several Saturday night
spaghetti suppers while
preparing for their various
championships and Friday
night football halftone
shows. "We love halftime,"
said Camelio. "All our
friends are there."
Last Saturday's game
marked the end of high
school cheerleading for the
seniors, and the end of the
season for the rest of the
team. While some, like Chel-
sie Sherbertes, plan to con-
tinue cheerleading in college,
others have mixed emotions.
"I'm not sure," said
Demko. "I don't think I am
ever going to find the same
thing I found here."
Another Hyannis area...

ThanksgivingDay-drug deals
going on inthe driveway of the
store. "If you're competent
at it, the deal is done in 30
seconds - too late to call the
police,"she said. Cullum said
she has alsonoticed an uptick
in general disregard for the
law in the area.
About a dozen neighbors
met to plan strategy Tuesday
night with Klimm, interim
Police Chief Paul MacDonald,
Deputy Chief Craig Tamash,
Town Councilor Harold Tobey,
police Sgt. Mark Mellyn and
Alan Goddard , representing
the Hyannis Civic Associa-
tion.
The police are responding
to the Sea Street initiative
with gusto, said Tobey, who
initiated the police reaction to
the Captain'sQuarters plight
last month after houses were
shot at and a woman's face
was disfigured by arazor-type
instrument.
Shortly after those inci-
dents , former Chief John
Finnegan stepped down, 18
months before his contract
was to end. MacDonald was
named interim chief the next
day.
MacDonald saidWednesday
a uniformed police team was
to begin pollingresidents yes-
terday along Sea Street and
other side streets by knock-
ing on doors and handing out
pamphlets.
"We want to find out what
the neighborhood's percep-
tion of problems is," he said.
"The police presence won't
be as intense as it was on
Hiramar Road. That was
something we did on our own.
This is different.Unlike Fresh
Holes (Road), we've been in-
vited and people will talk to
us. We should be more suc-
cessful there. We're literally
going to walk every street in
the neighborhood." He said
some people believe there
is drug activity while others
see problems with school-bus
stops and other quality of life
issues.
MacDonald said the police
want to narrow the problem
areas and then concentrate
a police presence there to
stabilize the neighborhood.
He said the rolling command
post would also be stationed
in the Sea Street area.
"Iwasn't expecting allthis,"
a grateful Cullum said on
Wednesday of the town and
police response to the neigh-
borhood' s effort to assure
the problems of the Captain's
Quarters neighborhood do not
transfer to Sea Street.
There is historical prece-
dence for concern about the
Sea Street area, which some
years ago had areputation for
housing trouble , particularly
with college-aged summer
workers living in gang rent-
als.
The town responded then
by forming BIRST, a team of
police and housing inspectors
who clamped down as a team
onlandlords rentingsub-stan-
dard housing to large groups
of student-workers.
It was a successful under-
taking for the area that was
followed by housing sales to
individuals who upgraded
property and brought a sta-
bilizing family-type presence
to the area.
A loose association was
formed in the Sea Street
quarter several years ago
to combat a perceived rise
in drug-related activity, but
intramural squabbling over
pet peeves and issues led to
its termination.
