Chief clash
Police chief supporters demand
answers on contract status

A large crowd packed the
town hall Monday night to
show their support for Police
Chief Mark DeLuca, some

MacDonald from office and
threatening to revoke the Town
Manager Act.
A few residents did defend

A police K9 unit searched a driveway near a home off Tremont Street Thursday afternoon. Police caught
one burglary suspect but another was unable to be located.
Police search for break-in
suspect; one arrested
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
Duxbury Police were in-
volved in a manhunt most of
Thursday afternoon after a ho-
meowner interrupted a break-
in on Seabury Point.
Lt. Lewis Chubb of the
Duxbury Police said the de-
partment received a call from
a homeowner who had in-
terrupted a burglary attempt
around 11 a.m.
The homeowner heard a
door open and saw a stranger
in the basement, Chubb said.
The first officer on the scene
spotted someone running from
the house and apprehended Ty-
ler Peach, 25, of Elm Street.
However, police believed
there was at least one other per-
son involved in the home inva-
sion and they began searching
the area using dogs. A helicop-
ter from the State Police’s air
wing was also scrambled to
search the neighborhood from
the sky.
Police combed the area
until about 6 p.m., when they
called off the search, Chubb
said.
Peach was charged with
breaking and entering in the
daytime with intent to commit
a felony and placing a person
in fear, as well as resisting ar-
rest and disorderly conduct.
A state police helicopter hovers above the Bay Road area as law
enforcement units on the ground search for a break-in suspect.
Police cars line up on Bay Road Thursday afternoon as the search for
a burglary suspect got underway.

Also, all the project’s for-
sale condos would be con-
verted to rental. This is impor-
tant, Marchant said, because
instead of 190 of the project’s
units qualifying as affordable,
all 238 would count. If the
project is accepted, Duxbury
would have 8.03 percent af-
fordable housing (the goal of
the 40B law is 10 percent.)
To make up for the lost
income of the condo, the de-
veloper will add four three
bedroom townhouses, and will
take the unusual step of add-
ing a floor to two of the exist-
ing elderly housing buildings,
as well as elevators.
“This is where the creative
side of things comes in,” said
Marchant. “That would pro-
vide some transition to the
three story buildings.”
The board, as well as
members of the audience from
the town’s affordable housing
committee, reacted to the re-

said he didn’t see any major
problems.
“Nothing on this site plan

Houston said.
Heaton also said there is no

necessary permits from Plym-

move the police chief.
Supporters said DeLuca
has been a good chief for the
town and did not understand
why MacDonald has chosen
not to continue his employ-
ment. Petition organizer John
Canty of Blodgett Avenue
asked MacDonald to explain
his decision and offer his rea-
sons, but MacDonald refused.
“It is not the practice of the
Town of Duxbury to discuss
employees or employees’ con-
tracts in a public forum,” said
MacDonald. “My decision on
this is final. I am not going to
discuss the contract.”
Canty said he felt town
government needed to be more
transparent and added that he
and DeLuca’s supporters would
return to the selectmen’s meet-
ings weekly until the chief’s
contract is renewed.
Steve Peterson of Bolas
Road called on selectmen to
remove MacDonald.
“Chief DeLuca is a decent
man. He’s an honorable man. I
am ashamed that this issue has
even come up,” said Peterson,

This reversible heat exchange is accomplished through
heat transfer loops which transfer heat between the earth
and the geothermal system’s heat pump. Horizontal closed
loops consist of tubing buried in five-six foot deep trenches.

system, in which liquid is circulated between the ground and
heat pump in tubes and the heat exchange takes place through
the tube walls.
There are several types of heat pumps used in geothermal
heating systems depending on how the heat and cooling is
distributed in the living spaces. A water-to-water heat pump
produces hot water which feeds radiators, fin-tube baseboards
or radiant floor systems. Water-to water heat pumps are
especially efficient when used with radiant floor systems which
use relatively low water temperatures (usually under 110º F).
A water-to-air heat pump delivers heated air to ducts which
conduct it to registers in rooms. The same equipment can
deliver cool air to ducts to air condition these spaces.
A hybrid type of heat pump produces either hot air and hot
water or cold air and cold water. While more costly, it works
well in homes with hot water radiant heat which also require
air conditioning.
Annual heating costs with a geothermal system should be
about 40 percent to 50 percent of the cost of heating with a gas
or oil fired furnace or boiler. Given variables such as changing
fuel and electricity prices, the efficiency of an old boiler or
furnace and the amount of insulation in a house, it is almost

were allowed to stay.
The committee, along with
Superintendent of Schools
Susan Skeiber and Assistant
Superintendent Edwin Walsh,
met with consultant Robert
Evans. Evans, a psycholo-
gist, works for a non-profit
in Wellsely and works with
school committees around the
country.
“It’s not true that a good
committee is one where every-
body sees eye to eye,” Evans
said. “It’s how it gets man-
aged, and seeing that people
disagree in ways that are ulti-
mately constructive.”
Committee member Anne
Ward said that there has been
a divide on the board recently
among members who wish to
support the superintendent and
those who want to be a voice
for the citizens.
“These two things don’t
have to be mutually exclu-
sive,” she said. “How do we
get rid of the split and merge
these two things.”
John Heindstadt said that
he felt there is a perception in
the public the committee needs
to deal with. “Citizens don’t
feel that anybody’s listening to
them,” he said. “Most people
will accept something, even if
they disagree, if you discuss
things openly and honestly
and respect them.”
Member Maureen Connol-
ly said she felt very strongly
that the voices of concerned
parents should be heard.
“We were elected by the
public, for the public,” she
said. “Parents are the ones who
will advocate most for their
children. Nobody else will do
that like a parent does.”
However, other members
said they have to take the po-
sition of what’s best for the
district as a whole.
“On any issue, there’s go-
ing to be some parents who
agree or disagree,” said Karen
Wong. “We were elected to
have that bird’s eye view.”
Other members said that
constant second guessing of
the superintendent is tanta-
mount to micromanagement
and impedes her ability to do
her job.
“We have a difficult time,
sometimes as a board and
sometimes as individual mem-
bers, delineating between di-
rection and directions,” said
Cipolletti.
Ward said that the group
needed to learn to disagree
and ask questions without un-
dercutting the superintendent’s
authority.
“I think it’s our obligation
to support her, not necessarily
agree with her, but to make
her successful,” she said.
“Where’s the happy medium
between split votes ... and be-
ing that 5-0 rubber stamp.”
Heindstadt said that the
committee could still do that
while asking tough questions.

A meeting that’s
open but not?
T
he School Committee came dangerously close to
violating the state’s Open Meeting Law Wednesday
as they asked reporters to leave a workshop meeting
at the high school.
Saying “the meeting is open, but we’d rather you not be
here” is the same as saying the meeting is closed. It made the
signs in the high school leading to the meeting room, and all
the talk at the previous School Committee meeting about this
gathering being open to the public, seem disingenuous. The
idea that the committee would even consider canceling the
meeting rather than complying with the Open Meeting Law is
ludicrous and seemed spiteful.
The agenda of the meeting was to discuss how the
Committee could better facilitate their meetings despite some
philosophical differences between board members on the role
of a school committee member.
It’s an interesting dynamic, and it’s always going to be
changing depending on the composition of the committee.

What does your library do for you? ————
D A
ear friends and
neighbors: In these
challenging eco-
nomic times, what is your li-
brary worth to you? How many
times in the past year did you
stop by the Duxbury Free Li-
brary to check out a book or a
DVD? Maybe you attended a
free lecture or one of the many
children’s events? Who pays
for these services? It is funds
from the Friends of the Dux-
bury Free Library, the State of
Massachusetts, and the town of
Duxbury that support this valu-
able resource.
Take a moment to consider
what the Friends of the Dux-
bury Free Library contributed
last year because of donations
made by residents like you:
• $14,000 for new books,
CDs, DVDs
• $4,000 for the children’s
summer reading program
• $2,000 for the young adult
summer program
Your generous donation is
crucial to the future success of
our library. Without your dona-
tion, the Friends will not have
the funds needed to supplement
the Duxbury Free Library’s
material budget for new books,
CDs and DVDs. Material ex-
penditure is a crucial compo-
nent in the Massachusetts ac-

patrons would be prohibited

brary loans. In 2009, Duxbury

The present debate is
not about the unin-

cal care, it’s all about who pays
and how.
Although many of you
may feel the high cost of your
healthcare premiums is the
issue. That’s only part of it.
Many of you contribute to the
cost of your insurance, but oth-
ers are required to pay the rest.
These additional payments ap-

over 30,000 items from other
towns in the Old Colony Li-

it would cost to purchase these
thousands of books, CDs and
DVDs.
Over the last five years we
have seen a steady increase in
library usage. Year after year,
our library continues to add to
the number of dynamic pro-
grams for children, teens and
adults — 450 such programs in
2009. Maybe someone in your
household attended one? Did
your visit to the library result in
one of the 260,000 loan trans-
actions the library processed
last year?
We know that 2010 prom-

taxes you pay goes to subsidize
the healthcare costs of state em-
ployees (including your legisla-

federal taxes goes to subsidize
all federal employees (includ-

chase a new car, close to $2,000
or more goes to subsidize the
cost off healthcare for the auto

Standish Humane hosts Folk & Fur Fest

O
n Sunday, Sept. 20, Standish Humane Society, which is located in Duxbury, cel-
ebrated its 40th Anniversary by holding its 15th Annual Folk & Fur Fest and Walk

mans turned out to enjoy wonderful music, food, dog contests and browse many booths fea-
turing pet products and services as well as worthy animal rescue and humane groups. Vicki
Croke of NECN’s “The Secret Life of Animals” was the Grand Marshal and was honored for
her many years of media work in the animal and wildlife world. Also honored were pharma-
cist Kathleen Taylor of Animal Pharm in Scituate; Bob Andrews of Plymouth, a dedicated
volunteer with local shelters and dog rescue groups; and Edith Briell of Duxbury, a longtime
Standish board member who laid the foundation for the organization’s ongoing success.

The event brought lots of dogs, and their owners, out for music,
food, contests and more.

varsity career against Plym-

outh North, O’Keefe went 10
of 14 for 140 yards and two
TDs, while also scoring a TD
from one yard out late in the
first half to lead his team to a
20-6 lead at halftime.
“Matt is doing a nice job,
but he’s still making some mis-
takes,” said Coach Dave Maim-
aron. “He’s progressing and is
heading in the right direction
like the rest of the team.”
Meanwhile, Savard showed
the explosiveness he brings
to the team that was missing
in the first two games after he
was hampered by a concussion
in the preseason. With 37 sec-
onds left in the first quarter, the
senior receiver grabbed a short
punt on the bounce and bolted
down the left sideline to score
on a 32-yard punt return. Ben
Startzell nailed the extra point
to give the Dragons a 7-0 lead.
Defensive back Rob Kates
recovered a loose ball on the
next series, giving Duxbury
great field position at the 23
yard line.
On the first play of the
drive, O’Keefe dropped back
and spotted Matt Hallisey run-
ning a slant from left to right.
He hit the junior receiver in
stride as he turned upfield,
splitting the President’s defen-
sive backs and running into the
end zone for a 23-yard TD pass.
Startzell’s PAT was wide right
and the Dragons lead stood at
13-0 with 9:08 left in the half.
With less than five minutes
to go in the half, the Duxbury
defense forced a Quincy punt
after they moved the ball out
to midfield. Savard went back
to field it and it bounced off
his hands, rolling through the
grasp of a half dozen players
before coming to a stop at the
Duxbury one-yard line with
Quincy in possession.
It took junior Rod News-
ome just one play to get the
Presidents back in the ball
game, as the Duxbury lead
shrunk to 13-6 with 3:52 left in
the half.
The next series almost
proved disastrous for the Drag-
ons, as they turned the ball
over on an O’Keefe fumble at
the Quincy 44-yard line.
A stellar defensive effort
by the Dragons forced another
Quincy punt that was fielded
by Savard on his own 15-yard
line. He sprinted to his left and
turned his defenders, racing up
the left sideline for 80 yards
before being taken down on the
Quincy 5-yard line. Three plays
later O’Keefe was into the end
zone and the hosts went into
the locker room in the lead.
The Dragons came out for Free Pickup & Delivery
the second half and struck im- Mon/Thurs
mediately with a 63-yard drive, or
culminating in a spectacular Tues/Fri
TD grab of 35 yards by Savard, 16 Chestnut St. Duxbury
as he beat senior captain Ken 1-800-79-Valet
Nguyen down the left sideline www.thecleanist.com
to make it 27-6 after Startzell’s
PAT.
Quincy was now forced
to go to the air, and C.J. Cote

ack to school means so much
to so many, including me.
The school year is also “The
Season” for arts and entertainment.
The Plymouth Philharmonic opens
their 2009-2010 season this Saturday,
Oct. 3 at 8 p.m. Call 508-746-8008

review their performance next week,

Concerto (James Buswell, violin), and
Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No.2 in E
minor.
But here’s the back-to-school part:
your homework is to attend either the
pre-concert soirée at the Pilgrim Hall
p.m., or Steven Karidoyanes’ pre- 
concert talk at Memorial Hall at 7 p.m.
Either way, you’ll learn wonderful
things about the concert. Steven brings
stories about the composers, the music,
and the performance that deepens my
understanding of the music. I wouldn’t
miss it. On the other hand, the soirée
opens a window into the life of the
patron of the arts, and puts a little more
jingle in the Phil’s pocket.

Back to school

school – in spirit – at the Duxbury Senior Center. What do
I mean by “in spirit?” I mean that you can have all the learning
of a college-level course, with none of the anxiety and none of
the night-time commuting into Boston or Cambridge. I talked to
Director Joanne Moore. Some of the fall classes are filled, but
three still have openings. Meanwhile, the Steppin’ Out Program
offers seniors a chance to share cultural events with friends, or
to make new friends.
First the Steppin’ Out. Tickets aren’t cheap, but the program
includes bus transportation from the Senior Center. (Call
781-934-5774, ext. 102 to sign up. Tickets are limited by the
size of the bus.) Boston Ballet’s production of “Giselle” will
show you what “ballet blanc” is all about (a white ballet, named
for the color of the tutus on the corps de ballet.) For the matinee
show on Saturday, Oct. 10 the bus leaves at 12:30 p.m. Tickets
are $72.
Sunday, Nov. 8 brings Bizet’s “Carmen” to the Boston Lyric
Opera. Leave Duxbury at 1:30 p.m; tickets are $90 each. Carmen
and Giselle both explore the tragic side of a woman scorned,
and both are classic works in Boston’s repertoire. Check the
Senior Center Web site for more shows. Just click the link from
the town’s Web site, or search for Duxbury Senior Center on
Google.
The Life-long Learning program still has openings in
three Classes. Reading Shakespeare’s Plays runs for six weeks
beginning on Monday, Oct. 19 at 11 a.m. Carrie Meier will run
the group, which will read “Richard II.” The class will read
each scene and follow with discussion. Pick up your copy of the
play at Westwinds Bookshop.
Charlie Cassara teaches “The Evolution of Jazz Music”
Friday mornings at 10 a.m. beginning this Friday, Oct. 2. Charlie
is a Professor at Berklee College of Music, and will cover jazz
history from its roots, through Ragtime, Dixieland and Swing
all the way to today’s jazz music, both vocal and instrumental.
Due to a schedule shift, State Representative Daniel
Webster’s class is still open, entitled “Political Pros and Cons:
Voting State Politics,” now set to begin this Friday, Oct. 2 at 9
a.m. The class description is intriguing: “Illegal immigrants or
undocumented guests? Pension for public employees-deserved
or boondoggle? Swim toward economic recovery— or bail
out the sinking boat? Where do you stand? After hearing and
discussing the facts on these and other hot topics, will your final
vote be swayed? You might be surprised.”
Call the Senior Center soon to sign up the six to eight week
classes, all cost $25. Space may be limited, and they’re starting
soon.   Oct. 9 Middleboro Away 4:00

tie.
The third streak of the
week ended for the Drag-
ons on Thursday afternoon in
Duxbury when they knocked
off North Quincy, 4-0.
After scoring just one goal
in each of their previous four
games, Coach Tocci’s troops
exploded for four in a good
tune-up for Tuesday night’s
battle with Hingham.
Midway through the first
half the trio of Drummy, Ryan
Piesco and Sangster combined
for what proved to be the win-
ning goal, as Drummy’s pass
found Piesco, who crossed the
ball to the back post where
Sangster jumped and scored

Lady Dragons light it up in three wins

If Coach Emerson Cole-

showed him this past week he
has no need to worry.

Outscoring their oppo-
nents 15-3 in victories over
Whitman-Hanson, North
Quincy, and Bishop Fenwick,
the Lady Dragons (4-1) have
now served notice they are in-
tent on recapturing their Divi-
sion II state crown.
After being shutout in the
season opener against Silver
Lake, Boston Globe Player
of The Year Caitlin Burke
has been on a tear, scoring 11
goals in the past four games,
including four in a 4-1 win
over Whitman-Hanson and
All-American Sam Mewis.
After Mewis put her team
ahead in the first four minutes
of the game with a direct kick
from outside the box, Duxbury
got to work.
“We didn’t just hang our
heads. We just kept working
and battled back for a 2-1 lead
at the half,” said Coleman.
Burke struck for both first-
half goals, and put the game
away in the second half with
two more, while her teammates
and sophomore Madi Lawson
in particular kept Mewis from
doing any further damage.
Junior Melissa Gavin may
be playing in the shadow of
Burke, but she is proving to
be just as crucial to the team’s
success, as she assisted on
three of Burke’s goals with
Emily Gallagher being cred-
ited with the other.
Burke continued her torrid
scoring pace on Thursday, as
she notched three more goals
in a 5-1 Patriot League win
over North Quincy, with Law-
son and Gallagher also getting
in the scorebook.
In what Coleman called
“not one of our prettiest
games,” the Lady Dragons
were too much for the Red
Raiders and led by 5-0 at half-
time.
“We jumped out right
away and everyone got a
chance to play,” said the Dux-
bury coach.
On Saturday afternoon,
Coleman’s team traveled north
to play Bishop Fenwick, a
solid Division II team in Pea-
body.
Having scouted the Cru-
saders in their 2-2 tie with
Cardinal Spellman earlier in
the week, Coleman had his
mind set on blanketing their
star with Lawson, who proved
she can stay with just about
anyone on the soccer field.
“We are a very good turf
team because team speed is
our strength,” said the second-
year Duxbury coach.
Obviously Fenwick’s turf
field played right into the Lady
Dragons’ strength, as Duxbury
scored four goals in a four-
minute span and left the field
at halftime with a 5-0 lead.
Goals by Katie Finocchi-
aro, Burke (2), and Gavin (2)
accounted for the scoring, with
Gavin also assisting on both
Burke goals, as well as nailing
a direct kick from 35 yards out
to highlight the onslaught.
“We were just rolling in
the first half and things kind of
tapered off in the second.”
The game may have slowed
down, but it didn’t stop Law-
son from getting some offense
of her own, as she scored the
final goal in a 6-1 win over the
hosts.
It’s a slow week for the
team, as they traveled to Hing-
ham yesterday afternoon for
their only game of the week.

The DHS freshman foot-
ball team continued its unbeat-

over the Quincy Presidents on
Thursday afternoon.

Duxbury goalie Sophie Fitz-
patrick was whistled for cov-
ering up the ball, resulting in a
penalty shot. Fitzpatrick man-
aged to get a piece of the ball
on the shot, but her momentum
pushed it into the corner of the
net for a 2-1 Fenwick lead.
Sophomore forward Grace
Nissi would get her team back
in the game when she tied the
score at 2-2 twelve minutes
into the half.
The Crusaders kept up the
pressure midway through the
second half and tested Fitzpat-
rick repeatedly, garnering six
straight corners and setting up
the game-winner for Elizabeth
Sears with 12 minutes showing
on the clock.
“That’s just about the time
I give the starters a break, but
Keri Gould was doing such a
great job on defense I couldn’t
get her out of there,” said Man-
ley. “ I think the whole defense
was just getting worn out.”
While Manley did see her
team pick up its game in the
second half, momentum had
shifted to the visitors and get-

ting it back was difficult.
“Our energy level rose in
the second half, but it was play-
ing at their game. They contin-
ued to keep the ball on the right
side and we just couldn’t swing
the ball across the field or get it
to the open spots.”
The loss came on the
heels of Duxbury’s big Patriot
League win (2-0) in Hingham
on Wednesday.
Goals by junior midfielder
Siobhan McCarthy and senior
forward Chandler Vuilliemier
were all Duxbury would need,
as they controlled play and lim-
ited the Harborwomen to six
shots on Fitzpatrick.
“Because our defense is
playing so solidly, we had a lot
of strong hits today and some
big runs by Mimi Smith and
Lila Haffey that allowed us to
put pressure on their net,” said
Manley.
After hosting Middleboro
Tuesday night, the Lady Drag-
ons will face their toughest test
of the Patriot League season
when they travel to Hanover on
Thursday afternoon to take on
the Indians at 4 p.m.
Conte, McCarthy, Narlee and
Cody Dormandy.  Winston
Schromm and his defensive
linemates Owen Grey, Mark
James Mattes also contributed
with timely tackles. 
Brendan Fitzgerald ran the
ball well and Colin Johnson
had excellent stops at corner-
back for the well-balanced and
deep Dragon squad. 
Geary was accurate all
day, as he hit Kyle Howard
and Chris Arthurs for long
gains that set up McCarthy’s
tackle for the Dragons’ final
