She holds bachelor's and master's degrees from Comell University and serves on the Central New York Hospital Association's executive committee. We expect 1993 to be signifi- cant because we're facing two issues. The first is the state. it's going to have a deficit again this year, and the hospital industry seems to be a likely candidate for fur- ther cuts or increased taxes. That has been Gov. Cuomo's approach for the past three reimbursement cycles.- --- This past year, he put into effect -a tax - he didn't cut -our -health care dollar, but he did tax us. The idea was to provide that money for a period of time to help the state get out of its budget problems. For hospitals, this tax was set at OS percent to 0.675 per- cent of gross receipts, depending on the facility's proportion of Medicaid inpatient revenue to total inpatient revenue. It was supposed -to sunset in March 1992, but it didn't, and all hos- pitals are taxed a flat 0.7 percent of their gross receipts. Another challenge facing the hos- pital will be -President Clinton's pian for health care. He has decided that a part of his economic reform package will have to be a major change in the health care system. We don't disagree with that — we feel there must be sig- nificant changes in the system. But right now he's talking about the possibility of global budgets and he's talking about cost control in one particular area of the economy.

No has controlled the cost of my equipment or has controlled my phar- maceutical costs. In New York State, we've already had global -type budget- ing, we've already had all -payer status; and the hospitals in New York State have done significantly worse than hospitals across the country. If we start with a global budget in a state -that already has significant problems in the health-care system, you're going to make those problems even worse. Our concern is that (with a nation- ally mandated cap on health care expenditures) we are taking as much as -$200 billion out of the health care delivery system by 2000. I believe that in New York State those kinds of cuts won't be able to be sustained by the average community hospital. I believe there will be additional hospital clos- ings in the. state and ... we are going to be seeing an aging population that will need more health care, not less. As long as our expectation for the -health-care system is open-ended, we're going to see cost increases. I think we do need to make sure that everyone has access to health care, but it's going to cost more, not less. You have to start with changing expectations. We ought to have some serious societal discussions. I think health care ought to have a roundtable of its own, and begin to let the American -public to know exactly what will have to be done, to have a system that will control access to con - trot costs. There's no way around that. Right now, I can't see how you're going to have significantly less money spent on health care, with the aging of the population we're going to be see- ing and the expectations that people now have.

By upgrading its daytime power from 1,000 to 5,000 watts, WPIE — located at 1160 on the dial —will expand its potential audience of 1 mil- lion listeners, said Joe Loverro, who will become the general manager. Loverro said the upgrade will allow the station's signal to be heard from Lake Ontario to the Pennsylvania border, but other local radio execu- tives said a 5,000 -watt station usually can't broadcast clearly for more than 50 miles. Pending formal approval from the Federal Communications Commis- sion, the new owner of the station will be Corning -based Pembrook Pines Media Group, which bought the sta- tion for $150,000 from WPIE Broad- casting, a corporation owned by Wrlliaixi Sit�manJcel Clawson, Mike Barry and Jim Zifchock. The station went on the air in January 1990. Sitzman, the most active partner in running the station, said the sale will free him to work with a radio syndi- . eating company, Music for All Sea- sons, and his 20 -year old independent broadcast consulting firm. Pembrook Pines owns six other sta- tions — WLVY-FM and WELM-AM in Elmira; WVIN-FM and WABH- AM in Bath; WACK-AM in Newark and WNNR-FM in Newark and greater Rochester. Robert Pfuntner of Corning is the company's president. Loverro said Pembrook Pines plans to change WPIE's easy -listening for- mat, but hasn't decided on a replace- ment yet.

He wishes he could just stop the clock — again, like countless other boys - But this boy reaches for the pendulum and..: stops time. The Boy Who Stopped Time, written by Enfielder Anthony Taber, starts with this effortless leap from the ordinary into the magical. It continues as the boy, Julian, takes a tour of people and places familiar to him but which he experiences in a completely new way because he has, by a simple act, frozen them. He comes to appreciate time, and even, at the end of the book, bedtime. iMs is a theme in everything I do, the idea of ending where you began," says Taber. "But when you've gotten to the end, every- thing has changed:" You can see this theme even in Taber's cartoons, which-, he has been selling to magazines for almost 30 years. In the series that led to his book Night Cats, a woman's cats grow to gigantic proportions and guard her house through the night. Then at dawn, they shrink back to normal size, and she realizes nothing. But no one who has read the cartoon will see those cats — or perhaps any cats — in the same way The Boy Who Stopped Time, which was published last week, will find a special place in Ithaca's libraries and homes, because Julian is not a fictional character. He is Taber's son, and the people and places familiar to him are also famliar to many of us. Open this book and you'll recognize the toy department at Woolworth's, the public library, and many other real local places and people articulated in breathtakingly detailed pencil drawings. The people in this book are part of Julian's world," says Taber. "Most of them are good friends we've known for many years. I wanted to gather together and encapsulate his world for him so that when he's an old guy my age he can look back on it and see all the people and places that were significant in his life. Fm really the boy who's stopping time." How does Julian feel about finding himself in print? "He likes seeing himself in drawings," says 1 1T ; 7f� '9 any A MODEL SON: Julian considered posing for the book "a pain," says Taber. "lie was embarrassed at having to go downtown in his pajamas." his father. "All the scenes are real; that's fun for. him also. The kitchen is his kitchen, the dog was the family dog. The kids in the playground scene are his cousins." Julian, who is 13 years old, is enjoying some celebrity now that the book has been -pub- lished, but he was a hard-working model during the six years it took his father to finish the book. "He sort of grew up with it. Mostly he thought it was a pain. He was embarrassed at having to go downtown in his pajamas. I had to pay him $ll) a half-hour! Tony Taber laughs when he talks about the response he expects from his other models. "When you draw :somebody's image, you're freezing something that is never static, it's always flowing and rippling," he says. "The more detail you put in, the more, we realize the lie, that it's not living. So, with my style, people tend to be a little uncom- fortable when they look at them- selves. They're fascinated and, I can't help believe, slightly horri- fied." Taber admits ruefully that he can't resist adding detail upon detail to his pictures. "I assemble the pieces in a:very objective, almost intellectual way," he says, .and then I try to make the elements as burnished and rich as ,possible, graphically and emotionally. It would be very hard for me to just indicate something and move on." He is somewhat analytical, and extremely successful, in his use of perspective. "Usually the viewer isn't aware of where he's been put," he says, "so I very con- sciously move the eye around: view the scenes from above, from below; and when I can Kct an unusual angle I like to do that because it makes the drawing fresh and interesting. You also create a sense of intimacy by just where you put the viewer." Tony Taber is equally aware of detail and perspective when he's telling stories, which he does regularly -while driving a school bus through Cayuga Heights. His voice is absolutely magical, drawing his riders into continuing, complex stories in which they are the heroes. He may have inherited his talent from his Welsh mother, who had memorized volumes of Shakespeare ("she went on and ' on") and who hoped her son would become an actor. "I have a 10-minutebreak _right in the middle of any first run in the morning, and I spend it telling "these elementary children stories," says Taber. "We have an invisible boy who gets on the bus maybe, once every -four or five days, but 1, insist that he gets on the bus every day; and the kids have to.clear the.aisles so he can find his seat There's Xyle who always tomes on the bus with a- red lunchbox— Kyle just found out that he- has a three-inch brother.named Bert who lives in the box. i open up the box and Bert calls, `Help me! I'm stuck under a sandwich!' And Kyle tells " me hes a vegetarian, so of course Bert loves pork chops:" Taber is at work now on many of the stories that are developing on his bus routes; as well as a book for his daugY►ter AnnaRoser ' But after- sig years of intensive labor on illustrations for The Boy Who Stopped Time, he may decide ..not. to illustrate the next books:' "Stylistically it's almost absurd to spend that much :time on- drawings,- ndrawings," he says. 'But 1—felt—like I had to put in all the time it needed. I want: to try drawing with washes and very loose lines, but there are other people who do that very well already, so maybe I -should just let them do it:" The craftsmanship in Ike Boy . Who Stopped Time is stunning enough to appeal to all age groups, and the idea of finding familiar faces and places in a pub- lished book is irresish-ble.Twenty, 30, 40 years from now, you and your children can show the next generations the pictures in. this book and say, "I was there. -I know him. I met her. This is how they looked.' This is your chance to stop time. - Tony Taber and the models for The Boy Who Stopped Time will be autographing copies of the book at the Corner Book Store front 3 to 5pm on Saturday, March 13, with the profits going to the Tompkins County Public Library. a The Ithaca Joumat Monday, March15, 1993 Firefighters brave storm for 2 fires Besides false alarms and standard rescue calls, two minor fires kept area firefighters busy over the weekend. The first, reported at about 12:45 p.m. Saturday, caused between $1,000 and $5,000 td a Graden Apartment on the Ithaca College campus, Ithaca firefighter Guy J. Van Benschoten said. Due to the heavy snow and unshov- eled walkways, firefighters had some trouble getting to the blaze, which was limited to apartment 27-5-1. "It was cumbersome and more time consuming," Van Benschoten said. A wicker hamper sitting near a baseboard electric heating unit was the cause of the fire. The heater dried out the wicker, making it easier for the hamper to ignite, Van Benschoten said. Ithaca College was on spring break last week, and the apartment was unoccupied at the time. A chimney fire on Gray Road in the Town of Ithaca early this morning caused between $5,000 and $10,000 damage. The blaze, at 4 Grav Road, "began shortly after midnight, Van Ben- schoten said. Firefighters from Enfield and the City of Ithaca responded, and bad lit- tle trouble getting to the home, which is owned by Robert Kellogg of Enfield Falls Road, Van Benschoten said. The firefighter also reported that the Ithaca Fire Department had received several false alarms = many of them from Cornell University — over the weekend. The snow was causing alarm systems to malfunction, he said. - The Ithaca Journal Monday, March 15, 1993 The Ithaca Journal Wednesday, March 17, 1993 Budgets — • In Enfield, the town spent $8,000 to $10,000, including $6,018 on over- time, Highway Superintendent Ron Updike estimated.

The Ithaca Journal Tuesday, March 16, 1993 11210W cleared the way for a blizzard baby By SIMEON MOSS Journal Staff' In the Chase family, she'll be known as the "blizzard baby." At 7 pounds, 14 ounces, Megan Chase wasn't a heavy package, but thanks to Enfield Highway Department snowplow driver Jim Dew, she was delivered right on time. Dew's truck cleared a path for John Chase and his very pregnant wife Diana early Sunday morning as they drove from high up on Bostwick Road to Tompkins Community Hospital; through the teeth of the weekend blizzard. "If it wasn't for him, we would have had a world of trouble," Chase said Monday of Dew, who led the way for Chase's car and his important cargo. The Chases and their daughter Kathy, 7, live in Tru-' mansburg near Lodi, but they werg staying with John's father, Roy Chase, on Bostwick Road Saturday to be clos- er to the hospital. After Diana went into heavy labor around midnight as the blizzard raged, her husband called the highway department. After Dew and his wing man Dick McFall showed up with their plow, the wild ride began. "I didn't think we'd make it," the proud father said.

The Cornell Daily Sun -Illustration by Anthony Taber STOP THE CLOCK: A local resident wrote and illustrated The Boy Who Stopped Time. -�&-Iee� 4w�w If I Could Turn Back Time By LAURA SULLIVAN StaffReviewer If you thought Alison Lurie and Carl Sagan were the only well known authors currently living in the Ithaca area, you've been reading in the wrong age bracket. But if you have to enter- tain a six-year-old in the near future, you ll want to know about Anthony Taber, the author of The Bey Who Stopped 7Yme. THE BOY WHO STOPPED TIME WRITTEN AND ILLUSTRATED BY ANTHONY TABER (McELDERRY BOOKS) Taber, who is chiefly known for his art work, lives in Enfield, just outside of Ithaca. This delightful children's book, the third one that he's both written and illustrated, has helped to es- tablish him as one of the most talented rising children's authors. The Boy Who Stopped Time is about Julian, who, like nearly every other youngster, wants to stay up past his 7:30 bedtime. Yet unlike most, who concede to their mother's commands with no more than a grumble, Julian has a streak of anarchy that makes him rebel. As the big hand comes menacingly near the six, Julian takes the only possible action — he stops the clock's pen- dulum, and thus stops time. By some law of physics, (I must have been ab- sent when they covered it in my physics class) the one who stops time is unaffected by the bizarre change. While the entire world is frozen around him, Julian is perfectly normal. Of course, if it were otherwise, it would create some tricky plot complications (i.e. Who would start time again?) which would only fluster young minds. Little Julian doesn't seem at all fazed by the odd happenings. Obviously he hasn't started watching The 71vilight Zone yet. With just enough guilt to keep a child psychologist from raising an eyebrow, Julian explores the static world. He might snatch cookies from the jar and make a forbidden solo trek into town, but at least he kisses his mother goodbye. The true excellence of the book lies in the il- lustrations. They. are superbly done pencil drawings that amaze with their verisimilitude. The expert use of shadow and contour give the impression of finely shot black and white photographs. It is in the most minute details that Taber ap- proaches perfection — while there is a slight awkwardness in the human figures, such things as kitchen utensils and the dashboard of a fire engine have a vivid, lifelike quality. The il- lustrations will be more alluring to adults, who Will marvel at the detail, than to children, who alight be nonplussed by the monochromatic im- ages. Taber's illustrations frequently appear in the New Yorker, Omni, and the New York 7lmes. lfe has also written Cat's Eyes and Night Cats. With The Boy Who Stopped 7Yme, Taber has firmly demonstrated his skill as a children's author. Taber will appear this Saturday at the Corner Book Store at 115 South Cayuga Street for a book -signing get-together. #24-93 The Ithaca Journai Wednesday, March 24, 1993 1 - Enfield residents cope with an identity problem , The township of Enfield on the, western border of Tompkins County, is about 36 square miles in area, since, it is laid.out .in miles square as far as the roads are concerned: One mile in each direction there is a crossroads,; But large as this may seem, there is nc1. post office in the township.

(N)y_SSE3,1,UJILICATIONSS/MARCH 17,1993 Strugghg to fleet V -3f-1 A, By Wendy Skinner : Firefighting is dangerous work, and those most at risk are the "smoke=eaters;"- the interior firefighters Ywho may have to wear respiratory equipment iii order ti. enter a burning building. Besides the enemy of fire, tential danger to interior firefighters is cardiac -, or other cardio -pulmonary difficulties brought oh l y stress and extraordinary physical effort.. eently, the federal government, ,through the Oscil ational Health and Safety .Administration (OSHA), established standards for the general health and cardio -pulmonary strength of a potential interior firefighter. These requirements became effective in January 1992. By law, fire companies (all -volunteer) and fire departments (which include paid firefighters) must offer to each interior firefighter a free physical exam If a firefighter refuses. the exam, he or she will no longer be allowed to go inside burning buildings. Administered in New York state through the .Public Employees Safety and Health (PESH) division of the Department of Labor. OSHA requirements have been imposed on all of the state's 1,800 fire departments and companies. The problem for local fire companies has been how to organize and pay for physical exams- for xamsfor their interior firefighters. There are so many different -definitions of what a `physical examination' may entail," says Olmstead, "that it became complicated when we began to.com- pare costs. Some physicians would offer -only the most complete exams imaginable; with a batteryaf tests and their accompanying fees. We needed to find an affordable exam that sufficiently covered OSHA requirements and the; particular=areas sof concern for firefighters.' "Tile OSHA guidelines are sufficiently 'vague that in order for some physicians to feel comfortable sign- ing a clearance for a firefighter, they put them through one of these extremely thorough exams," adds Olmstead. "We have tried to determine whatwill protect the worker without putting the community at higher risk, and falls withiwa price range we can afford." - Firefighters may -apt, at their own expense, to have w' the exam done by' a prorate physician of their own choosing. Union firefighters in Ithaca did this, at a' cost to some, reports Fire Chief Edward Olmstead, off".. over $400. PESH periodically inspects fire departments all around the'state to see if they are following safety and health regulations. Probably because the division, is understaffed "and underfunded itself, inspections are continued on page 12 #26-93 Repge. ents OSHAcontinued spotty. "PESH hasn't been herein three_ years," says Trumansburg Fire Chief Kevin Romer, who is gam- bling on being overlooked at least until June or July when he hopes to have the funding for the exams: "Budget constraints simply prevent us from doing it right now," he explains. PESH did catch up with the Ithaca Fire depart- ment, and it was cited in May of 1992 for non-compli- ance. nVe no :longer had a choice," says Chief Ohm - stead. "We had to figure this out or face a very steep fine [$50, per person, per day]." Olmstead put out requests for proposals (RFPs) to area physicians and clinics, including the Convenient Care Center operated by Tompkins Community Hos- pital. "We never got a reply from the Convenient Care Center," says Olmstead, "although they do perform . physicals for our new volunteers at a competitive unit price. Some local physicians did respond with what 01111- - stead says were competitive fees, but scheduling and guidelines remained a problem- "At the time we issued the RFPs, we were looking at 120 or so people who needed exams, and we had to be able to do it in a compressed time frame." -Both -Olmstead and Romer would have welcomed a physician willing to become the department or com- pany doctor. "Some larger departments do have fire physicians," says Olmstead. "The problems for, those departments were minimized. No doctor is our .area stepped forward, however." "In these litigious times, no local physician has shown him or herself willing to take_ on the potential liabilities," explains Romer, who also sent out RFPs to area doctors. The solution to Ithaca's problems came from a Pennsylvania company, Professional Health Services, Inc., which was not only willing.and able to take on the responsibility of medical screening for firefight- ers, refighters, they brought a mobile unit right to the firehall. "Because our union firefighters opted to go to their own physicians at their own cost after we had already __contracted with Professional Health Services, we ended up paying about twice as much per person as we had expected to, but the cost was still competitive.. The best thing about it was that we got 66 firefighters { through the process in a very timely fashion," said . Olmstead. The Enfield �Fire Company contracted with another Pennsylvania medical unit, Mobile Health Services, which is connected with the Center for Occupational Health at St. Margaret's Memorial Hospital in Pitts- burgh. The mobile unit broke down in Hornell and had to be towed here (Charlie's Towing, of Newfield, donated the service). but once everything was set up. Enfield got 35 of its firefighters screened in a day and a half. "It cost us about $60 for each basic physical, plus $20 for those 40 years old or more, who needed EKGs [electrocardiograms], says Enfield's fire chief, George May. May required all of his firefighters — not just the smoke -eaters — to have exams. "I wanted to go beyond the bare -minimum on this," says May. "Many aspects of firefighting are strenuous and stress -filled; I want to feel confident that I'm not requiring too much of individuals who may also be at risk, although they are not actively fighting a fire." There is economy in numbers, and to keep -the costs down, May contacted other local fire companies to see who wanted to join in. "We got 22 from New- field, 23 from Bangs Ambulance Company, four from the Lansing Fire Company and five from Mecklen- burg," says May. ' "It worked out really well for us," says Newfield Fire Chief Roy Trask. "It was an affordable and. satis- factory solution to having to meet the OSHA require- ments." Only Trumansburg's Chief Romer is lamenting the situation, which turned out be a lost opportunity. "It was misreported by the Free Press that the money for the exams was approved," says Romer. "It wasn't approved." Romer went to the Trumansburg Village Board on January 12 with a proposal to join with the Enfield and other fire companies in contracting with Mobile Health Services. The board turned down the request, according to Romer. "The fire budget is very tight," says Romer. "The portion of the funding that has traditionally come from donations is decreasing. Unexpected costs_ such as the OSHA exams, or the hepatitis shots that we are now required to offer, simply cannot be met without more money coming from the Village." Romer hopes to arrange to- meet the OSHA requirements for physical examinations for firefight- ers by this June or July. Meanwhile, Enfield has already- picked a tentative weekend date in April,_ 1994 for Mobile Health Services to return to thisarea. Chief May is again inviting all area fire companies to take advantage of the opportunity to catch up or keep up with OSHA requirements.

There's quite a bit of work that we all ac- complish at our homes to makethem com- fortable, presentable and entertaining. There are approximately 44 dedicatedin- dividuals here at Cornell that have the responsibility of maintaining their 'home away from home' too! Please welcome our Departmental Spotlight on the em= ployees at the Grounds Department! On a very cold day, I managed to warmly bundle up and make my way over to Palm Road to the new Grounds Department facility. There, I had the pleasure of speak- ing with Dennis Osika, Director of the Grounds Department, Cliff Duda, Associ- ate Director and Pete Salino, Landscape Maintenance Foreman. We managed to spend some quality time together in the discussion of how things "tick and click" at 'the Grounds Department "We are very fortunate to have dedi- cated people in this department," said; Dennis. And dedicated they are! These employees are responsible for maintain- ing 310 acres of lawns, 80 acres of shrub and tree plantings, 15 miles of roads, 22 miles of walkways, 114 acres of parking, 40 miles of storm and sanitary sewer and removal of approximately 76 inches of snow each winter! On Monday's, Wednesday's and Friday's, all crews go out and police the campus. This includes the little papers that fly around and the many bottles that ` litter the campus. "It's amazing to think that if this job wasn't done at all, how messy this campus would be in about a week's time," said Cliff. There are three main missions in this department: Landscape Maintenance, Landscape Construction and Excavation, #29-93 and Solid Waste Management and Recy- cling. (Today, I will discuss the first two missions, and within a.couple of weeks, you'll see a separate story on the Solid Waste Management and Recycling efforts at Cornell.) 'I've always been curious as to the way the Grounds Department employees all come together in the event of a large, overnight snowstorm. When I asked Den- nis and Cliff this question, out came the ever-present `snow book.' The 'snow book' has policy and procedures for snow re- moval at Cornell University. 'The first thing that happens is a call will come from the police department to the 24-hour customer service department. That information gets _routed to Pete Salinowho in tum, will alert a salt truck operator, since priority is given to the roads. The next step is to get our people to clear the walkways on campus. Parking lots aren't a priority to clear since we have over 100 acres and, generally, cars are parked in the lots and it makes .snow removal time consuming and diffi- cult during workdays. Parking lots must be cleared mainly at night and on week- ends when congestion is reduced." The sidewalk crew starts their work in the wee hours of the morning, usually 4:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. "Fighting snow is somewhat like being a fireman," said Cliff. "You are al- ways on duty, and it is hard work exacer- bated by severe weather. Our staff is very loyal and most regularly have to dig them- selves out at home, often in darkness, and then drive themselves to work under severe weather conditions in order to pro- vide reliable service on campus." Other than snow removal, what are some other responsibilities with the Grounds Department? Grass cutting, weed control, tree planting and removal, pruning, mulching, planting annuals and perennials, installing fencing, timber walls, outside benching, refuse removal, land- scape restoration and excavation, clean- ing of sanitary and storm water drains, plus so much more! Quite a bit of equip- ment is used by the grounds department to maintain our beautiful campus. This in- cludes: backhoes, dump trucks, pick up trucks, utility tractors, turf tractors, mow- ing machines, trimmers and others pieces of mechanical apparatus. There are no vacations for the grounds department during the winter or spring months. That is their busiest time of year. "By February or March, summer crew ros- ters have been decided on and supplies have been ordered as has any extra tools the crews may need to complete projects for this spring, summer and fall," said Cliff. Why all the planning? Because they work towards the Cornell Commencement date in May. `The Commencement routes and the entire campus grounds need to be near -perfect. The crews work 6, maybe 7 - days a week. They put in long hours in hopes of completing their respected jobs," says Cliff. "As soon as the weather allows us, we are out there working long days to complete our jobs." And it is very evident. These people work tirelessly in planting flowers, seeding grass, repairing vehicu- lar damage to lawns and trees as well as coming in on Sundays to see if their work has not been destroyed. There are some individuals that have spent many, many years with the Grounds Department. AI Reed, heavy equipment operator, has been with the department for 33 years, Paul Kratzer, auto mechanic, has 27 years and just recently, Grant "Shorty" Hamilton retired after 301/2 years as did Bill Compton who devoted 30 years to Cornell University. What does the future hold for the Grounds Department? "Our budget, like other departmental budgets on campus, has sustained a series of cuts in recent years. This is a challenging time for us to continue to maintain high standards with less monetary resources. But on the posi- tive side, it has stimulated our re-evalua- tion of our priorities and will help us be- come more efficient in ourjobs," said Den- nis. Pete added that "we grow internally. We are efficient, we are innovative, we work with our people in training and re- sources. We are people of many different hats. All crews are professional in many different fields. We need to be able. to "switch hats" in a moments notice as well as staying professional and in tune with our jobs. We encourage growth, educa= tion and learning with our fellow employ- ees." hope that we will all take the time to notice the professional work the Grounds Department people do for the University. They are certainly dedicated individuals who believe in the work that they do. They are a well mechanized' and well organized group of individuals whom I have an im- mense amount of respect for. Congratulations to the folks at the Grounds Department for being this week's Departmental Feature in Networking! Additional note: The Blizzard of '93 occured after this story was written. Many, many thanks need to go to the men -and women who spent innumerable hours clearing the Cornell University'campus during and after the storm. We sincerely thank you for your valiant efforts!

The truck was struck from the rear by a full-sized school bus carrying 18 children from DeWitt Middle School. Neither Hildreth or the driver of the bus, Nancy J. Armstrong, 25, of 421 Enfield Main Road, was ticket- ed, police said. A 12 -year-old girl on the bus and a 13 -year-old passenger in the truck complained of neck ,pain, but nei- ther was taken to a hospital at that time, police said. After a second school bus and driver came, picked up the children and completed the route, said Dave Bacharach, transportation manager for the Ithaca City School District. The father of the girl, Richard Guardiola, told The Journal his daughter, Michelle, was bumped and bruised but otherwise OK. She was taken to Tompkins Community Hospital, where medical personnel told the girl's mother Wednesday, evening to put ice on her bruises, and stay home from school, he said. #30-93 The Ithaca Journal Monday, April 5, 1993 NELLIE ELAINE FOLK MCGEE TRUMANSBURG—Nellie Elaine Folk McGee, 64, of Tru- mansburg, died Sat.

I say that as a writer who has worked with these people, these seemingly tireless folks who put the paper to bed on a Tuesday, stagger out the door and are ready to begin the process again the next day. Editors tend to be seen as tyrants by writers, since they demand performance, and since they set deadlines. But as S.K. List, the editor I probably worked with the longest at the Times once put it, an editor can give a wonderful gift to a writer. a deadline. If deadlines make life hell for writers, why then is it such a great igift? Because writers, in case you didn't know, are inherently lazy, or scattered, or busy with another more important writing project, or any of a million excuses. It is only with the deadline that the writer is forced to put down the notes and take up the blank sheet, the type- writer, or the word processor. It is only with this conjunction of ideas, action and coercion, that a publi- cation actually comes into being. . I myself came to writing for the Ithaca New Times and its erst- while cousin, the Good Times Gazette because I wanted to feel that I was something more than a 'drudge or a wage slave. I had some spare time and a lot of ideas, but no deadlines. I would write the occasional piece, and send it off to someone.1 didn't know in New York City, and get back impressive rejection letters, thanking me for my persistence but regretting the submission did not fit "their needs at this time."

She con- vinced me that I could do a piece about the use of electronics in reinforcing live music.

Not this Thursday, however. For the first time since he can remember, Dou- glas and his father weren't out together with their fly rods casting for trout with salmon egg sacks. Neither were thousands of other area anglers, who stayed away from Mother. Nature's rumbling creeks and high, muddy waters. Just a lousy day it was. "It's just a bummer everywhere," said Douglas, who tried his luck perch fishing tin Seneca Lake with his friend, Steve Hovencamp. "I only heard of one trout caught way up in a little feeder stream in Lodi.... The streams are bad." Although Douglas' dad, Bill Douglas Sr., still gave Catherine Creek a try, the Douglases and Hovencamp — like many other anglers — have postponed their traditional. opening day festivities . for a couple of weeks. "That's when we'll probably have our opening day ritual," Douglas said. Their ritual usually starts around 4 a.m. after a breakfast of eggs and homefries. "He's 67 years old, but he's still taking me, not the other way around," Douglas laughs. " 1'he only difference these days is, dad doesn't try to pawn me off on his friends.

In fact, he is co-director with Bonnie Clark of the fifth annual Cayuga Lake Trout and Salmon Derby. It's held every May on Cayuga Lake to benefit the 4-H Club's Sports Fishing, Recreation and Aquatic Educa- tion Program. "This will be our fifth year," says Douglas. "What we're doing is raising money for it program that will encourage a new generation of fishers." The "graying" of the fishing sport has Douglas `When I was little, I was bad about getting my line tangled with his. . .' — Bill Douglas Jr. worried. Young people just aren't interested in 'anything beyond their video games, he fears. And that could mean fewer people who are interested in the well-being of the lakes and streams of Cen- tral New York, People come to this area to fish from all over the Northeast,, he says. And that means a big tourist draw for local motels, restaurants and businesses. But,the people who care for the environmental health of the region, who keep it attractive for the tourists, are the homefolks. Douglas would like to ensure, through the 4-H program, that local peo- ple will -continue to enjoy fishing in this area as much as he does.
