But aside from the szxspending bills Grasso sub-mitted last month, the General

was the natural choice to put the guidetogether.

"We're crossing our fingers thatthey get it done while we're stillaround to see •t," is the fervent hopeof Pauline Staltmann, who hvesalong the turnnpike "We're gettingon in years They told us it wouldtake two or three years when wewere relocated 12 years ago when 66came through Meriden. Now theyhave put it in everyplace else buthere "

Staltmann says her mare concernis with the amount of traffic whichnow goes by their house She com-plains she "can't even keep thewindow open" because of the smellof oil and the noise from the trucks.At certain times of the day, sheadds, "'It's impossible" to pull outonto the turnpike from theirdriveway

"My husband has been going tothe different meetings, and we wrotesome letters," she says "We'revery much in favor of the project,but we may be pushing up daisies bythe time it's built "

The problems with traffic on theMeriden-Waterbury Turnpike is alsothe chief concern of Dr Robert THurle, M.D., another resident"There's all kinds of traffic, •:artraffic, as well as trucks," he says"There's out of state traffic, andgoing to work and coming hometraffic I just hope they get It ,d,onebefore the federal funds run out

For those hwng closer to the pur-ported expressway however, thereactions are less enthusiastic

"It's going to add a lot of noise," isthe dour prediction of WilliamLepper of Rahlene Drive "Theypromised to move the highway backa certain number of feet. but wedon't have anything in writing Nohighway ever does any good to theenvironment "

Lepper should know, he's anengineer He says the state refusedto take a decibel reading to measurewhat noise the area has now, andthen make a guarantee as to what itwould be kept to m the future

"I don't know why they.refused.maybe they were embarrassed," he

says. "The wooden sound barriersare nothing but failures, and thecement barriers are nothing butgraffiti boards -- they don't cut thenoise either."

Lepper also says he doubtswhether the highway •s actuallyneeded -- th• original study, henotes, was made back in the mid-50s"It seems to me that the moneycould be better invested m masstransit," he coiacludes.

But his main complaint is the lackof Information provided by theh•ghway department, espemallytheir failure to take the decibelreadings. "We pay their salariesWe support them. They should beanswerable to us," he says

Lack of information is also thechief concern.of Joan G Gilleo, alsoof Rahlene Drive She says theyaren't even sure whether thew hffuseis one of the 12 Southington homesnow occupying what will becAime theroads right-of-way •

"We want to know which houseswill be taken," she says "They mustknow the houses'mvolved, they justhaven't divulged them '• She alsosays she's worried about the in-crease in noise "It's relativelysound-free no•.- she explains "Wecan tape record crickets and birds inour back yard "

According to Avo Ora, chief of thestate office responsible for thedesign of 1-691, the design Is notfinalized yet -- the number 12assigned the houses to be moved isjust an approximation He didconfirm, though, that at least at thepresent hme the highway is slated toavoid the residents on RahleneDrive

He says the right-of-way should beabout 200 feet from the drive -though he also says he doesn't knowwhether this represents an increasein distance over the original plansHe says he doesn't know what, type.if any, sound barriers will bd usedalong the Rahlene Drive stretch ofhighway "We haven't progressedthat far w•th our plans," he explains"On major projects hke this, weusually do have sound barriers in•nhabited areas "

Such niceties as sound barriersand feet-from-the-roadway are oflittle concern to those residents

listed in the preliminary design asbeing in need of relocation.

'q•fftat can you say?" is thereaction of Mike Soriero, managerof Belle Camperland Inc, one of thefour Southington businesses slatedfor relocation. "You go, or you'replowed under." Soriero says he Isnot really against the highway, he.thinks it's needed. He just wishes hisplace of business wasn't in themiddle of tt.

The reaction of Caroline Spreda ofSouth End Road, whose husband'sgame farm is listed as being in therlg•ht-of-way, is somewhat stronger"They never told us nothin'," shesays. "'For the past 15 or 20 years,we've heard the road was goingthrough My husband spent all hislife on this place -- he's 72, and notwell."

After a little reflection, ,lowever,Spreda says she didn't "'feel too badabout the move," since her husband

'I'll believe itwhen the state laysthe money in my han&'

is getting a bit old to run the farm"Sooner or later we're going to haveto give the animals up," she notessadly

Henry Spreda, whose vegetablefarm Is next door to Carohne's sayshe has heard nothing official about arelocation either "Honest, we readabout it in the papers," he says "Afriend went out back to cut wood andtold me there were (surveyors'flags) on my property -- butsomebody else said that the roadwas only going to go beside us "

For some residents who have beenheamng for years that they are goingto have to relocate, the word that theh•ghway is about to come through atlast represents a relief of sorts.

"I'll beheve it when the state laysthe money in my hand," saysFurtuna Piccolo of Pratt Street

Randel Schmldt. also of PrattStreet, says he knew when he boughtthe house in 1974 that his propertymight become h•ghway eventually

"Now we wait and see," he says,noting that the state has yet to ap-proach him formally.

Joseph C Cianci, another PrattStreet resident, says all he has heardis hearsay about the possibility of hishouse being bought "The week afterwe bought the house, we found out,"he says. "The way the stategovernment m going now, they couldscrub the whole thing. I'm not apessimmt, I'm not an ophmist, I'm arealist. When I see it, I'll believe it.I'm from Missouri.

Mike Harris, of the Connecticutoffice of the Federal Highway Ad-minlstratton, says although themoney is not here yet, it has beenbudgeted Federal funds will cover90 percent of the $33 6 milhon theroad •s expected to cost

Harris says "'Most of the roadwaywill have to be under construction bylate 1986," or the project is in dangerof lomng it's federal funding Hepredicts no problems, however --most of' the permits are in and thelength of roadway to be constructedis, after all, only 3.5 miles

J•m Sullivan, the state en-vironmental engineer overseeingthe project, predicts the h•ghwayshould be complete before 1988 Henotes there are still some relativelyminor hurdles to clear, such as theneed for mr and wetlands permits."We don't anticipate any bigproblems, though "

He also says an addltmnal in-tersection off 1-691 that Southingtontown officials and local businesseswanted built in the VlClmty ofKnotter Drive would be a safetyhazard

"We try to be reasonable, and wesaw that we weren't going to getwhat we wanted anyway," saysTown Manager John Wemhsel, notone to spend a great deal of timeruminating on sour grapes

Roger Jacks, the owner of theAmerican Eagle 76 Truck stop,whmh strongly advocated the exit,says he's still opposed to the h•gh-way m Its present form "We're notvery aggressive about it. though."he says "It's no use."

He's probably right If the b•g boysin Hartford and Washington haveanything to say about it, the ex-pressway is on the way

The Bonnie PrinceGosh, we don't know what to sayWe're Kennedy-lovers from way back All

those revlsiomst revelations about JFK'sWhite House women, and the fact that heexpected his aides to pick up his dirty shirtsm the Holiday Inn, haven't done much toshake our image of the guy

What America wants from its presidentsis something beyond competentmanagement We look to the preslclent forguidance, for an Image of America that canmake us feel good about ourselves

All of the Kennedy brothers have offeredthat kind of leadership, in varying degreesAmong the great ca01tahst families, theFhtzgeralds and the Kennedys always hadthat spark of something extra You can'thelp but feel strongly about them, one wayor the other

But this Kennedy bid is a very puzzlingthing How odd that the two middlebrothers, m their time. should haverepresented a fresh breath in politics, acoalition of the underprivileged and theintelhgentsla, the machine perhaps equallysubject to abuse, but still a machine youcould admire in its gleaming newness Wewere going to the moon. we were choosingour presidents with all the sophistication ofa live color nationwide media hookup, andthe Kennedys were right there, with a smileand a wave. obviously riding the tide. a farcry from those-fat oldtimers who alwayslooked like they'd left their prepared#remarks in the men's room

How odd that only a decade or two later.Edward Moore Kennedy. the youngest.bnngs something far from the breath offreshness to the political scene

With all the glory of the name Kennedynow come other spectres The Bay of Pigs,the Vietnam "advisers". Dean Rusk. the F-111. the Best and the Brightest. LBJ. Joanmoving out Chappaqulddlck

Teddy is overweight and his back troubleshim Even in domestic policy his dif-ferences from Jimmy Carter are hard to•anpomt, and of foreign pahcy he seems to

ve little"Whether you like him or not. the truth is

that Jerry Brown is the voice of the newgeneration in national politics The Brownopposition might have done the same thingto Carter that JFK did to the old-timers in

1960 -- left them wondering which way hewent

But Kennedy has now managed tofragment the party's left wing. and nomatter how Kennedy fares, the chances ofBrown getting the media coverage he needsseem to have gone a-glimmering

Like it or not, a Democrat in this countr)today is either a Kennedy Democrat or ananti-Kenned) Democrat And even thoughin New England it's eas:, to imagine theanti-Kennedy forces are few and far bet-ween. the fact is that those folks now havemany months to nurture an anti-Hyanmspert backlash, and much fertilizerwith which to work

As detailed in William Honan's excellent

prime time

Kennedy will not be spending much timebefore the people in open shopping centersor open cars, and thus we will become moreand more dependent on various thwd-handinterpretations of His Word through siJndrymedia disciples as autumn turns to winterand then to spring All those media discipleswill assure us they know the KennedyPosition The only question is whetherthey'll remember which Kennedy they'reworking for now

None of which is going to hurt JimmyCarter much In fact. the creaking into gearof the Kennedy machine may give Carterhis only chance to do what he has done sowell in the past. to run as an outsider.almost as a challenger to a Kennedy ln-cumboncy

Like Bonme Prlnc• Charhe. we wonder ifthe youngest brother might do more goodfor those who love both him and the mem-ory of h•s s•bllngs, by standing aloof fromthe pellt|cal pit, than by waving his outgun-ned Highlanders VallantIy forward

Maybe that's unfair to the guy Hd has asmuch right to run as anybody, of course

It's just that we have a hard time seeinganything but tragedy arising from this ill-timed and lssueless candidacy We stillsuspect the next President Kennedy will benamed Joe

letters to the editor

Turn him in?To the editor:

I read your two articles aboutMike •anonymou$-name) thepusher who wants to makedealing drugs a successfulcareer I thought the articlesinteresting and •nformative butvery disturbing. They broughtseveral questions to mind

1 ) What are the reactmns andactions by school officials andthe police`) Mike madereference to taking drugs onschool premises Is it possibleto make on the spot arrestsduring school hours `)

2) Since Mike exposedhimself to you as one of the topfive pushers •n Southington.will you identify him to thepolice"

3) In the Past, I have readmany irate le(ters to the editorcommenting about variousarticles m your paper I amupset that not one reader haswritten to you about such aserious problem Why is this`)Aren't drugs as serious aswater pollution or the hospital `)

4, Will there be follow-upstones m your paper telling us

what can be and •s being doneabout this `)

Articles about an anonymouspusher hoping to make asuccessful business career indrugs do little to solve a seriousproblem However, they are astarting point We suggest youexamine what is being done inSouthmgton to combat illegaldrugs If the current action is•nadequate, let us all knowThen we can do somethingabout it

Very truly yours.Concerned Citizen t anonymous )

The editor responds:

It causes us considerableproblems to print anonymousletters, and we try to avoiddoing so.

We felt this one made enoughgood points that it shouldn't befiled away. But we repeat thatwe will gladly withhold thename of a writer on request, ifhe or she will only provide it tous so we can check back withany questions.

Perhaps the answer to thiswriter's question, about why

there have been no letters onthis subject, lies in the ver) actof seeking anonymity.

A lot of people know aboutdrug use and the uneven en-forcement of our drug laws. butno one seems to want to talkabout it. We'd be happier if wecould answer more of thesequestions, but we agree that atleast a start has been made inopening up discussion of them.

No. we won't turn overMike's identity to the police.He spoke to us on the conditionwe'd withhold his identity, andwe thought what he had to sa3was worth the risk.

Under this Supreme Court,newsmen can go to jail forrefusing to relinquish suchinformation. But we could nolonger function as newsmen ifour sources couldn't trust us tostand by our word.

Mike. by the wa•,. neversaid he was one of the fi•ebiggest pushers in Southington.Only that he wanted to be.

And yes, there will be follow.

The editor responds :

Since Mrs. Burhoe accuses usof leaving the reader with• 'false impressions." we find itinteresting that she chooses notto mention anywhere in herletter that she is emplo)edBradley Hospital, as adieticia'n.

While that in no wa) affectsher right to state her opinions.it may well be relevant to areader trying to form an ira-

pression.The• article to which Mrs.

Burhoe refers tit appeared inour Oct. I 1 edition, three weeksbefore her "immediate"response) was based entirel)on documents prepared byBradley's own staff. Nospokesman for the hospital hasever contested thosedocuments' existence, or ouraccurate reporting of their

contents.We have sought throughout

the ensuing weeks to meet withofficial spokesmen from thehospital, to hear and print theirside of the story. They will onl)tell us that they are stillworking on plans for such ameeting.

The ()bser•er is not a sen-sationalist newspaper. Thedail) papers which cover thisto•n lace their pages withtantalizing tidbits aboutcharges of rape and vandalism.We will report such storiesuhen we can acquire enoughdetailed information to placethem in a meaningful per-spective, explaining to the bestof our abilit) how such eventsoccur, what they mean to thecommunit), and what actionsare being, or could be. taken toprevent them.

Nor do we have an) ax togrind with Bradle) tlospital, oran) of the other town in-stitutions which we are hereaccused of "undermining.'"

The Observer ran a lead•tor) Aug. 2• •hich gave anencouraging ' •iew of thehospital's ph)sician recruit-ment drive. The hospitalcontinues to take man) positi• esteps, and we will continue totr? to report them, whether ornot the administration there is

willing to come forward.No one enjoys being the

bearer of bad tidings. But wethink most of our readers wouldrather remain free to makeeducated judgements based onthe full and accurate reportingof important local news, than tohave their local newspaperprotect their sensibilities at theexpense of their awareness.

And more and more of thepeople of this town seem toagree. Demand for this paper isexpanding [aster than v,e canmeet it.

Senich's Sportscope DePaol,o JHSfootbalb Two losses in seven seasons

In the last seven football seasons thePatriots of DePaolo Junior High Schoolhere in Southington have lost twogames, tied one and won all the rest. Inthat span of time,,coach Dick Nocera'steams have had-two undefeated, andunscored on clubs, tthey were 5-1 thisseason )

That's a whole lot of winning, baby !How does Nocera do it? "He presents

a loose atmosphere; it's a fun thing,"says Steve Grzesczyk, SH• quar-terback, who played for Nocera a few

years ago, adding. "It's not a win orelse attitude "

In an ihterwew w•th the nine-yearcoaching veteran at DePaolo--he wasan assistant under Dom D'Angelo atSHS two years before taking over thereins of the gridiron Patriots--hespoke of the difference •n coaching onthe junior high level compared to thehigh school ranks:

• "The k•ds don't have that manydiversions, for one They can't driveyet. They have no big social life at thattime of their life. They aren't into thedating thing that seriously. They lookforward to practices, which we keepshort, maybe an hour-and-a-half a day

"I tell them I want three things fromthem: One, to try their best. Two, tohave respect for their teammates andopponents. And three, to have fun.Hey, if you're not having fun, what'sthe sense of playing. In all the years Iplayed sports as a kid, I always en-joyed practices and the games. It wasalways fun. I want it to be that way forthem."

Nocera was a blue chip athlete atCroft High School in Waterbury (nowKennedy High School ) in the early '60swhere he starred in football andbaseball. He's small but solidly builtand comes from a family of giftedathletes

When he first started as head coachDic 9ceraCoach of the Patriots

at DePaolo. D•ck had the usual firstyear problems "'I tried to teach themeverything I knew," he says "Youcan't do that in one •ear I learned somuch m 12 years of p]aymg and hguredI could teach that to these k•ds m oneseason Noway That can't be done

"I also reahzed that kids on th•s levelare m a difficult period of thew hfeThey are growing physically andemohonally Some k•ds you can teachthem something new and they learn •tinstantly Others have to work on •t forhours Man:,' hmes the stars on thejunior high level aren't stars m highschool because they matured early •njunior high Then when they get to theh•gh school, the other kids catch upw•th them, and. many hmes. passthem out I see k•d• who d•d amazingthings for me here but olay very httlefor Dora D'Angelo (head coach at SHS Ior don't play at all It's just a matter ofmaturity They were ahead of the otherk•ds on our level, that's all "

Even though there •s a "loose at-mosphere" at DePaolo's footballpractices, there are firm ruleseveryone must obey. "He sets thoserules down at the first prachee."remombers Grzesczyk, "and you mustadhere to them or leave But you knowwhere you stand Thektdshkethat -

"We haue the usual hoods at ourschool who come out for the team."

laughs Nocera "They think becausethey can punch a k•d out on the street,theyql be tough m football They lastabout an hour the first practice thenpack it m It's not that easy and theylearn pmnfully They don't have thepatience to be a good athlete '"

W•th all the winning at DePaolo,coach Nocera feels he might have builta monster he can't control, explaimng,

. "The k•ds are so used to winning theytake •t for granted I'm afrmd theyforgot how to lose They get let downwhen the other team scores a touch-down on them In our two pre-seasongames th•s season we shutout the'opposition Consequently, they wentinto game one not worrying aboutwinning but giving up a touchdown.When the other team scored our lockerroom was hke a morg•le We won bigbut the other team scored late m thegame You'd have thought we lostThat's not good."

Nocera worries about this w•nningatmosphere hurting some of the k•ds atthe high school, stating, 'When they getup there, some of them can't takelosing and qmt Others, who can adapt,make the transihon."

The DePaolo teams of Nocera take a"busmessqike" approach ,,t° theirgames "I like •t that way, says the

When Nocera arrived in townand coached for D'Angelo for acouple of seasons at SHS, hefeels he learned a lot. and isapprecmtive of the way inwhich he was handled by thehead coach "Dom gives hiscoaches a set of rules to follow,but allows you to innovate, tooI fell on my face a few times.but he never complained.

The Observer, Wednesday, November 21, 1979

Congressman fi(,qds questionsBRISTOL -- Many members

of Congress deal with theabortion issue on a basis ofpersonal belief rather thanseeking out the opinions of theirconstztuents, according to U.S.Representative Toby Moffett,D-6th

At a "town meeting" forSouthington, Plainville, andBristol residents at theAmerican Legion Hall •nBristol Monday evening,Moffett told an audience ofmore than 100 people theabortion issue in Congress"comes down to personalconviction" and added it is stdla volatile subject amongmembers of Congress

Moffett stud he has studiedthe ilhcit alternatives to legal,

hnanced abortion andfound them amounting to nomore than a "butchery ofchddren "

"It is unfair that the well-to-do can have easy acess toabortion whereas the poorcannot," Moffett said inresponse to a question from afemale member of the audiencewho opposed the use of federaldollars for abortion.

Moffett added he is still "nott•te sure" about abortion and

e effects it will have on futuresociety.

In response to pre-selectedquestions from the audience,Moffett also spoke of thejnihtary arms race, calling forthe •mmediate end to the armsrace between the U S andRussia, saying "We alreadycan blow each other up 50hines "

"You could •nv•nt a slingshotfor $6 million and Congresswould buy it..Must we buyeverything that the militarysays we need '•"

The De ,i•ocraticcongressman shifted blame onthe U.S. for creating the armsbuildup and said the U.S. firstdeveloped the ABM and MIRVsystems; Russia then followedsuit. - -

Moffett also called for aredirection of Social Securitybenefits and said "by the year2000 we're really going to be introuble."

He suggested militaryretirees should not receivetheir pens'runs until the age of 55and added military personnelare ehgible to receiveretirement beneifts at the ageof 39

Moffett said the awarding ofSocial Security benefits to thosewho are extremely wealthy isunfair and menhoned hereceived letters from affluentconstituents who wanted toreturn their SS checks

"town meeting'" inBristol hand oxer a pre-selected question toSixth District

Congressman Tob>Moffett.
