LUDLOW – After a month-long investigation by Ludlow Police Det. Alison Metcalfe, a
Ludlow man registered as a Level 3 sex
offender has been arrested and charged with
11 felonious sex offenses.
Anthony Santaniello, 48, of 305 East St.,
was arrested Thursday, Oct. 9, and charged
with 11 felonious sex offenses, including
sodomy against a male victim.
According to Metcalfe, with assistance
from the Fugitive Task Force made up of
Mass State Police and local police,
Santaniello was arrested at his boyfriend’s
house on Stafford Street in Springfield.
Springfield police also charged Santaniello
for failure to register as a sex offender with
Springfield Police.
Metcalfe said the victim and family members reported the sex abuse to Ludlow police
last month. Metcalfe launched a month-long
investigation, interviewing the victim and witnesses, and, “after receiving full disclosure of the
crime against the victim,”
Metcalfe said she was
able to obtain an arrest
warrant Wednesday, Oct.
8.
When police went to
Santaniello’s residence at
305 East St., a room above
Anthony

bar, they found his room
padlocked.
“He hadn’t been staying at that address for
approximately three weeks,” said Metcalfe,
adding that Santaniello’s residence is listed as
305 East St., on the Sex Offender Registry.
“We checked again Thursday,” said
Metcalfe, who added that she knew of two
other places Santaniello might be.
“He usually would only be at his

boyfriend’s house or his mother’s house,”
Metcalfe said. “He was picked up on Stafford
Street in Springfield at his boyfriend’s
house.”
Metcalfe said that following his arrest,
Santaniello was cooperative when questioned.
“He was cooperative with police and was
truthful about some of the events that
occurred,” said Metcalfe, who added that the
sexual abuse Santaniello has been accused of
occurred over the course of a year and a half.
Santaniello was arraigned in Springfield
District Court. He was held on $5,000 for the
Springfield charge of failing to register in the
city as a sex offender. He was arraigned in
Palmer District Court Tuesday, Oct. 14.
Metcalfe said charges are expected to be
added in relation to a victim in Ware. She said
all the information she obtained through her
investigation will be forwarded to police in
Ware, so they can conduct an investigation
regarding crimes that occurred in their jurisdiction.

LUDLOW – Over 180 people turned out for the
Senior Center’s “Luncheon of Champions” last Tuesday,
Oct. 7, to honor 35 seniors who competed in the 21st
annual Massachusetts Senior Summer Games held at
Springfield College in June, July and August. The
Billiards competition was held at the Ludlow Senior
Center’s Billiards Room in July.
According to Ludlow Senior Center Games CoOrganizer and Massachusetts Senior Games Board of
Trustees Honorary Chairman Fred Lafayette, of Ludlow,
billiards is one of 22 summer sports seniors can compete
in throughout the competition. The Senior Center contingent competed in billiards, tennis, track & field,
swimming and table tennis. Lafayette added that he is
grateful to his Co-Organizer Dick Belisle for his assistance.
“Dick Belisle and I were excited to co-organize the
Billiards competition of the games, and we were honored to host the Billiards tournament in our own
Billiards room. We have done this for a number of
years, and I hope we continue to host it for many more
years to come,” said Lafayette.
The Massachusetts Senior Games (MASG) is a part
of the National Senior Games Association (NSGA),
which holds a national championship every two years at
selected sites around the country. It provides people with
opportunities for recreation, competition and camaraderie. Seniors may choose up to 25 sport activities
from which to compete, with many divided into singles,
doubles, mixed doubles and teams and age categories.
“Fran Bissaillon was our oldest competitor, at the
young age of 94,” Lafayette said. “He did a great job.
He earned a Gold medal for Billiards-Singles in his age
bracket, and he earned a Bronze medal for BilliardsMixed Doubles along with his partner Stephanie
Tyburski.”
Lafayette, who took home a Gold medal in BilliardsSingles and a Silver medal in Billiards-Mixed Doubles,
expressed his admiration for the talent displayed by the

Pirates drop anchor at Chapin
Street School’s annual Math Night
By Caroline Funchion
Register Correspondent
LUDLOW – Tiny pirates stormed through the doors
of Chapin Street School last Thursday, Oct. 9, to attend
the annual Math Night. The festivities consisted of grub
prepared by the PTO, a booty of books at the Scholastic
Book Fair, and a math voyage carefully crafted by
Chapin Street staff.
After families gobbled their grub, they made their
way to the sea of books and gadgets awaiting them in
the next room.
Noelle Gionne, an eight-year-old lass, of Ludlow,
said, “My favorite books are Junie B. Jones. She gets
into the principal’s office!”
Seventh-graders Dillan Craven and Jake Vautrain
raided the book fair as well.
“I’m more of a fantasy type, non-fiction, Roald Dahl
is one of my favorites. He wrote ‘The Witches’ and
‘The Big Friendly Giant,’” said Vautrain.
Teacher Alyssa Moriarty praised her coworker, art
teacher Jane Abts, for creating an impressive pirate ship
docked outside the front office.
“It’s a lot of fun,” said Moriarty. “The kids got really
excited.”
Moriarty also recognized the efforts of the Parent
Teacher Organization.
“The PTO has provided Smart Boards through the
money made at the book fair,” she said.
Before setting sail on their math voyage, little
pirates were handed a treasure map and a deck of playing cards.
“The kids are going into different rooms, and they’re
going to be playing different card games that will
increase their math skills,” explained second grade
teacher Jody Yarkey.
The Jolly Roger greeted students in every wing of
the school, as they led their land lubber parents to each
classroom on their treasure map. Teachers decked out
in pirate garb greeted and engaged them in fun, mindstretching games like “Addition War,” “Odd and Even
Race,” “Tens Go Fish,” “Mind Reading” and
“Subtraction War.”
When asked his favorite stop on the treasure map,
second-grader John McClintock said, in his best pirate
voice, “Arrrggghh, probably room ten, odds and
evens!”
His best buddy, Derek Rhotes, also in second grade,
joked, “Arrrggghh, me too! But he always beats me in
math!”
After each game was completed, students received a
stamp on their treasure map. If students completed all
of the tasks, they would return to the book fair room to
place their maps into one of many prize baskets.
Math Night at Chapin Street school was a blimey
good time had by parents, teacher, and pirates!

Procon, 7, her son, Cameron Foley, 11, and

At Western Mass Auto Insurance excellent customer
service means tailoring insurance policies to a person’s
unique situation. Ross opened the agency in order to
provide a much needed service to the area. He believes

truly helping their customers, and this is why he has
filled his website with over 75 articles and useful links.

Let them
play
W
hen the news came down last
Thursday about the Ludlow High
School boys varsity soccer team
having to forfeit 11 games due to the use of
an ineligible player, many in this town who
are fond of the European-style football
were stunned.
A school that is considered a perennial
power and a contender to not only win the
Western Massachusetts title, but the state
championship year in and year out, would
not be allowed to partake in what has
become an annual tradition or rite of passage in this town.
Now there is a group of parents in town
that is calling for the resignation of
Ludlow High School Athletics Director
Tim Brillo and Ludlow High School
Principal Lisa Nemeth over this matter.
Both have already accepted responsibility, as it seems an oversight in the checks
and balances in this issue led to an ineligible player playing for just over the first
half of the season for the team.
Should anyone in the Ludlow High
School administration lose their job over
this? The simple answer is no. We are all
human beings and as human beings none
of us are perfect. We all make mistakes at
work from time to time, and we learn from
these mistakes and move on. Just because
said people have a higher profile job, and
their mistake gets reported in the newspaper, does not mean that they should not be
given the chance to learn from their mistakes.
“We have about 300 student-athletes at
Ludlow High School, and there is a team
of people who makes sure that each of our
student-athletes are eligible before the start
of each season,” Principal Nemeth said.
“There are a lot of checks and balances
that we follow, and our system failed in
this case. We all missed it, and we’re very
disappointed about it. We’re definitely
going to be taking the whole process a little bit slower in the future. We self-reported our mistake to the MIAA
(Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic
Association) and we’ll be appealing it.”
The Lions still have one last hope in
order to make the postseason under a new
rule that was approved by the MIAA this
past summer. Because the reason the team
would not make the postseason is based on
something that took place off the soccer
pitch and not on the field, the school is
being allowed to make an appeal to an
MIAA subcommittee that is scheduled to
be heard towards the end of next week.
It is the hope of this newspaper that the
voting members of the MIAA subcommittee recognize that the players on the team
should not be punished for the mistake that
occurred at the administrative level. All of
the boys on the current squad have done
nothing wrong, but, unfortunately, they are
the ones who may end up receiving the
biggest punishment of all.
The support from across the Western
Massachusetts community has been nothing short of astonishing. Following the
announcement,
on
Twitter
“#LetLudlowplay” began to trend across
the region. Other schools want the Ludlow
boys soccer team to play in the Western
Massachusetts Tournament and get the
chance to defeat them to win the Western
Massachusetts championship.
Here’s hoping that the other schools
across the region will get that opportunity
when postseason play begins in just a couple of weeks.
To borrow a quote from the Bad News
Bears movie franchise: “Let them play. Let
them play.”

‘REGULATING THE CONDUCT OF CITIZENS’
On Oct. 6, 2014, Town Meeting overwhelmingly approved Article 15, an amendment to Ch. IV of the Ludlow By-laws. The
headline to this letter is the actual existing
section it falls under, Ch. IV that is. This draconian change in our By-laws brings the
warmth of Nazi Germany a little closer.
Anyone who has it in for their neighbor
can now bring a complaint to the fire chief,
police chief, health inspector or building
inspector. Their opinion puts the target property in jeopardy of non-compliance as a nuisance or bad maintenance. On the surface
many town employees thinking of the worst
examples they see in their respective line of
work welcomed this “ordinance.” Wait, what!
Ludlow doesn't have ordinances. Yet, the 1st
part of the warrant clearly identifies, under
purpose, the term ordinance.
This one issue alone, as pointed out to me
by another Town Meeting member, shows the
lack of thought about Ludlow the drafters put
into this “amendment.” One resident spoke
passionately about dog waste across from her
new home and the dumping on this vacant
lot. Well the owner of the lot is not putting it
there, her neighbors are.
So the lot owner is now responsible to
maintain the lot – or else. It even states, if a
window is broken, you have 30 days to
replace – or else. No boarded windows
accepted. Town buildings excluded of course.
Good thing, the library has had a boarded
window all summer. If you are a sitting official in Ludlow, you can ignore Planning
Board rules, and no one will say anything,
will they, well actually I just did. This new
law will be a haven for retribution and abuse.
There has to be a better way.

Annual Relics game remembers Josh
Despite the weather, Saturday’s 2nd annual softball game between the Ludlow Police
Department and the over fifty Western Mass
Relics benefitting our son and brother, Sgt.
Josh Desforges Scholarship Fund, proved to
be a tremendous success. The exciting event
raised $750.00 in a very short period of time.
Donations were made, raffle tickets were purchased, hot dogs were eaten, and everyone
appeared to have a great time, regardless of
the cool weather.
We would like to thank Bill and Linda
Koss for organizing this great event; the
Ludlow Police Department for donating all
the food and their participation in the game;
the Western Mass Relics for their participation in the game; the field prep crew; the
refreshment stand crew; the umpires and all
the generous merchants for promoting the
event and donating such awesome raffle
prizes.
We would also like to thank our Mom,
Anne Martin, and Uncle and Aunt, Charles
and Rose Laramee for their help in getting the
word out and organizing and collecting donations for the raffle. The game ended in a 31-8
win for the Relics bringing the series to a tie.
Next year ought to be interesting!
Thank you for your continued support and
Always Remembering!

A Heavenly
High Five
By Joan E. B.
Coombs
Have you ever struggled to rise above
challenges or to push to heights beyond your
reach? What happened if after all your veinpopping efforts, others surpassed those obstacles with vim, vigor and a seemingly singlebound leap?
Once back on level ground, could there be
an encounter that results in a pinnacle
moment? Could there be something so significant that it surpasses any goal?
Some years ago, on New England’s Mount
Monadnock in New Hampshire, one of the
most frequently climbed mountains in the
world, a large, well-organized group of
church youth from five states gathered with
adult leaders. On this annual 3, 165 foot-high
climbing event during the peak foliage season, they met to conquer steep, rough-rock
scaling challenges. Those adults skeptical of
scaling slippery, rocky heights, stayed on duty
near the base of the mountain providing blankets, snacks, water and beverages and any
first-aid supplies needed in a relaxing, beautyfilled setting for any adults or youngsters who
couldn’t find the trails or keep up with rigors
of climbing the trails.
The day’s brilliant sunrays portrayed spectacular landscapes in every direction. Clear
skies kept the winds as cooling breezes that
sponged sweating brows of summit climbers.
Amid the autumn bursts of peak foliage, 100mile views over villages, towns, church
steeples, farms, lakes and winding roads
stretched through all six New England states,
inviting those with normal eyesight to use
binoculars.
Each trail has unique curves, cliffs and
crests. The White Arrow Trail, the easiest to
assent and descend is about two miles long.
Going up and carefully coming down – most
injuries happen coming down the trail – takes

said the unofficial kick-off to Red Ribbon Week was a
successful drug take-back event held at Town Hall on
Sept. 27.
“We collected well over 140 pounds of prescription
drug medication,” he said.
Those drugs were turned over to the Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) for controlled
incineration.
CARES Coalition member Maxine Mazur said students at Ludlow High School have been busy making
posters that will be distributed to the elementary
schools and the middle school, town departments and
area businesses on Oct. 19.
“We’re looking for our local businesses to display
them in a prominent place,” she said.
CARES volunteers will participate in an open house
at the Ludlow Safety Complex on Oct. 19, from 1-4
p.m.
The Coalition is excited to welcome Herren back to
Ludlow for the launch of Project Purple, which was
conceived to break the stigma of addiction, bring
awareness to the dangers of substance abuse and shed
light on effective treatment practices. Herren, who
played for the Boston Celtics before drug addiction
derailed his career, will speak to seventh- and eighthgraders at the middle school on Monday, Oct. 27, in a
closed-door discussion (not open to the public). A
native of Fall River, he has been drug- and alcohol-free
since 2008.
The Project Purple concept was developed after
Herren spoke at a local high school in 2011 and the
front row of students were wearing purple shirts. After
Herren shared his story, one of the individuals raised
her hand and stood up to speak: “Thank you Mr. Herren
for validating what we do. We are the sober students of
this high school, and each year we take a pledge to not
use drugs or alcohol.” He was captured by the courage
it took to stand up and share the symbolism of the purple shirts.
Also on Oct. 27, the Coalition will hold its third
annual Fall Forum at the high school from 7-8:30 p.m.
The keynote speaker will be Dr. Robert Roose, MD,
chief medical officer of addiction services for the
Sisters of Providence Health System. Board-certified in

at least four hours. Along the way, many leaders saw
high school youth and college-age students scramble or
skip by with nary a huff-puff, or so it seemed.
Unexpectedly, in the midst of that panoramic
autumn, aurora-leaf display, an unforgettable scene
happened that Saturday for one, tall, super strong, but
novice mountain climber.
“You’re back with your crew. How was it?”
“Gorgeous day. Great views. ‘Some slick spots on
rough rocks.”
“Tired?”
“Yup. Sore. Stretched every muscle!” he said sighing, as he relaxed on the blanket with his hands behind
his head, “But, everyone had a great time.”
“How was the view?”
“Well, MORE than I expected.”
“Could you see Boston?”
Sitting back up, he shook his head, trying to disguise
a sheepish grin.

Chairman Lenny Robbins and President John Diotalevi are presented
with an American flag, a POW/MIA flag and a State flag by Ludlow
Director of Veterans Services Eric Segundo in October 2013. Segundo
presented the flags to the PACC to thank them for the support shown to
the Ludlow VFW Post 3236 and the Ron Stephenson Memorial Fund,
which provides financial assistance to Ludlow veterans and family members in need.
Family and Addiction Medicine, he was named the
2012 Addiction Medicine Physician of the Year by the
New York State Department of Health. A representative
from the Ludlow Police Department and
Superintendent of Schools Todd H. Gazda are also slated to speak.
CARES member Cindy Miller said teachers will
provide incentives to students who attend the forum
with their parents. Results of a risk assessment survey
showed that well over 90 percent of Ludlow students
are close to their family members, she added.
“Students look to their parents for this kind of information and advice,” Miller said.
New this year, CARES volunteers will bring Red
Ribbon Week to the Senior Center with guest speakers,
including Dr. Elinor Kelliher, discussing the dangers of
overmedicating and the importance of medication safety on Tuesday, Oct. 28, at 10:30 a.m. Board of Health
member Angela Kramer said seniors will be assembling
3,000 red ribbons to be distributed to the schools and
throughout the town, so the community can show its
support for a drug-free Ludlow.
Kramer said DEA and CARES volunteers will be
visiting the schools throughout the week to encourage
students to take the drug-free pledge.
Selectman William E. Rooney, who is a member of
the CARES Coalition, said he favors this year’s allencompassing format, which will target the town’s
youth as well as its elders.
“Red Ribbon Week is a town-wide effort,” he said.
“I hope it reflects the values of our town – that we’re
all in this together.”
Rooney encouraged his fellow selectboard members
to participate and show their support.
“I hope all board members will be involved in some
activities during Red Ribbon Week,” he said.
Selectman Carmina Fernandes praised the CARES
Coalition’s dedication and commitment.
“I’m certain with all the work you’re doing you’re
going to change (at least) one person and turn them
away from doing drugs,” she said.
Mazur said a donation form will be sent out to area
businesses to help offset the costs of Red Ribbon Week.
Forms will also be available at Town Hall. Anyone
wishing to donate should email the Coalition at
[email protected].
“I saw things I NEVER expected…,” he said, and as
his voice trailed off, he sported a broadening smile.
“So, was it – unbelievable?”
“Yup. After over two hours of rock ‘n’ ridge climbing, we got to the top!”
“Yeah, with only a few scrapes!”
“Yeah. But, when grabbing the last ridge, you’ll
never guess WHO I saw STANDING there.”
“W-H-O?”
“Five Nuns with long black habits and even some in
heeled shoes!”
“What? Five Sisters? On top of Mt. Monadnock?
Incredible!”
“Yup. I don’t know what Order they served in, but
all I can say is that whatever it was, it sure was a
‘Heaven’s High Five.’”
“Hallelujah! Can’t think of a better way to uplift a
day! And a ‘Heavenly High Five’ sure tops it off!”

pasta dinner and musical entertainment. While a
limited number of tickets will be sold at the door the
night of the fundraiser, they may be purchased in
advance at Our Town Variety, 259 Fuller St., Ludlow
or St. Elizabeth’s Rectory or St. John the Baptist
School, Hubbard Street, Ludlow.
According to organizer Noreen O’Sullivan,
Donald Zulch, a UPS employee, hasn’t worked since
March of this year, when he was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis. Zulch’s condition worsened to
Adult Distress Syndrome, a fatal disease, requiring
the double lung transplant in June.
Zulch’s wife, Marissa, a visiting nurse, took time
off to stay close to her husband in Boston.
“She has been working pretty much part-time
since June when this all started,” said Sullivan.
The couple has six sons, twins John and Joe, 13,
Andrew, 17, and older sons, Michael 19,
Christopher, 20, and TJ, 22.
Although Donald Zulch has been able to come
back to Ludlow from time to time, he continues
treatment at Mass General Hospital in Boston.
Earlier this month, Zulch suffered a setback, an
infection. Fearing the infection signified a transplant
rejection, it turned out to be a mild case of pneumonia, and Zulch is expected to recover.
In addition to a pasta dinner and musical entertainment, the “Just Breathe” fundraiser will include
raffles with some fabulous prizes, including a
“Flight School” flying lesson, Boston Red Sox tickets, and a two-night hotel stay and admission to
Plymouth Plantation, valued at $350. Gift basket
prizes include a basket full of lottery scratch tickets.
While the goal of the “Just Breathe” fundraiser is
to help relieve the Zulch family’s financial burden,
it also serves as a reminder to residents about the
importance of organ donation, O’Sullivan said.
For those who can’t make it to the fundraiser but
would like to assist the family, an account called the
“Don Zulch Benefit Fund” has been set up at TD
Bank in Ludlow for donations.

In addition to tours and demonstrations, fire safety
information will also be provided.
“There is a fire education component to the Open
House for both children and adults,” said Babineau.
From 1-4 p.m., the duty crew will be available to
answer questions, along with off duty personnel,
including Chief Babineau.
Firefighters will be on hand to offer tours and provide demonstrations. Smokey Bear and “Sparky” the

opportunity to see fire trucks and ambulances, along
with other tools of the trade, including thermal imaging

hardworking kid. I came back from my weekend leave
and said, ‘Gee, where is Eddie?’ They said, ‘Oh, they
picked him up for spying.’”
Tarby’s 100th birthday wish was to see her
younger brother, Ward Robinson, 87, of New
Hampshire, and last Saturday, her wish came true, as
he was one of the first to wish her a happy birthday.
“My mother was a nurse,” Robinson warmly
remembered. “I went over the handlebars of my bicycle when I was younger, and I skinned my arm completely. (My mother and Francis) took care of me.
She was destined to be a nurse.”
Francis and her late husband, William “Mike”
Tarby, met during World War II and tied the knot during one of William’s leaves. Francis’ granddaughter,
Tara Dias, of Hampden, who was inspired by her
grandmother to become a registered nurse, commented on her grandparents’ marriage.
“She loved her husband,” said Dias. “I’ve never
seen a marriage like theirs.”
Granddaughter Nicole Antaya, of Wilbraham,
referred to her grandmother as her “second mother,”
as Francis took care of her when her parents were at
work. From vacations to trips to the theater, Antaya
cherishes those times with her grandmother.
“She is one of those people I always pictured as
the glue that keeps everyone stuck together. She’s
someone that has a huge, strong belief in family
which begins at 2 p.m.
Last year, the Open House expanded to include the
Ludlow Police Department. Ludlow Police Chief Paul
Madera, officers, along with members of the command
staff, dispatchers and members of the administrative
staff will be on site.
“People can get a tour of the building with officers,
and police dispatchers will be on hand to answer questions,” said Madera. “They will be able to get an understanding of all the different facets of policing in Ludlow
and meet the people who provide these services.”
Because residents’ tax payments fund the department, Madera said the Open House is a good way for
taxpayers to see how their money is being spent.
“The community wants to make sure taxes are being
used properly,” said Madera. “This is a good way to see
(tax dollars) at work.”
Also on the Police Department side, vehicles will be
on display, and children and adults will have the opportunity to meet members of the department’s Special
Response Team (SRT), who will be promoting their
upcoming “Run for the Law 5K,” set for Sunday, Oct.
being first,” said Antaya, who noted how much she
admired her grandmother’s, “Old fashioned politeness, cherishing the moments you have, her ‘I can do
it myself attitude,’ and her willingness to always help
others.”
Francis and her late husband, William, were faithful members of Saint Barnabas and All Saints Church
in Springfield.
Daughter Patricia Chester, of Springfield noted,
“She’s like the matriarch there. She and my father
came to Springfield around 1978.”
“The minute my husband and I moved here, we
went right there to that church, and I’ve been there
ever since,” Tarby proudly added.
In addition to her love of the Lord, Tarby also
enjoys reading, playing solitaire and working on
crossword puzzles. She has many joys, but above all
is her family.
“I love my family. I’m so blessed to have wonderful family,” she said. “I thank the good Lord every
day for that.”
When asked her secret to living 100 years, Tarby
answered, “I don’t have a secret. Just live and love
people, and keep the good Lord in your mind.”
26. Proceeds from the run will help to raise funds to
purchase protective equipment for the members of the
SRT.
Other highlights include a demonstration by the
department’s K9 Unit with K9 Officer Michael
Whitney and his partner, Rocky; tours of the department’s Dispatch Center; a meet and greet with School
Resource Officer Thomas Lee, along with information
about the department’s Patrol Division, Special Police
Program, and the Detective Bureau.
Also on site will be members of the Ludlow CARES
Coalition and the Michael J. Dias Foundation.
In addition, free popcorn and balloons will be available, and games, including the “Fire Prevention
Jeopardy Game” will be part of the afternoon fun.
Bring your cameras for plenty of photo opportunities!
The Open House will be held rain or shine.
For more information, call the Fire Department at
413-583-8332 or the Police Department at 413-5838305.

Indian Orchard
Popko recognized as Orchard’s oldest resident
By Christi Mills
Register Correspondent
INDIAN ORCHARD – Today, Wednesday, Oct.
15, is an important day for long-time Indian Orchard
resident Margaret Popko, as she turns 104 years old.
In celebration, her daughter and son-in-law Hedy and
Andrew Tenzar, daughter and son-in-law Dorothy
“Dot” and Walter Czepiel, son Julian, his wife Mary,
Popko’s grandchildren and great grandchildren will
be throwing her a birthday party.
Reaching 104 years old did not go unnoticed by
Springfield officials. On Wednesday, Oct. 1, Popko
was presented with a City of Springfield
Proclamation, a Springfield City Council Citation and
a “Purple Cane,” all presented by Springfield City
Councilor Orlando Ramos (Ward 8). A recognition
plaque was presented to Popko by Indian Orchard
Citizens Council (IOCC) President Linda Yarber and
IOCC Treasurer Patricia Voisine.
The City of Springfield Proclamation, signed by
Mayor Dominic Sarno, recognizes and celebrates
Popko as she turns 104 by proclaiming October 15,
2014, as “Margaret Popko Day.” The Proclamation
also congratulates her for being the first Purple Cane
recipient residing in Indian Orchard.
The Springfield City Council Citation recognized
and congratulated Popko as well.
“I presented the Proclamation, the Citation and the
Purple Cane to Margaret,” said Ramos. “When I presented the cane to her, she playfully started hitting me
with the cane, which caused everyone to laugh. It
was great to be a part of a new Indian Orchard tradition. This tradition is very fitting because this community is rich in history and tradition.”
Jonathan Bozbeckian, a 25-year IOCC member
and owner of Indian Orchard’s Nixon Company,
donated two recognition plaques, and both displayed
Popko’s name. One plaque was presented to Popko,
and the other, which allows space for names of future
Purple Cane recipients, will be kept by the IOCC.
Yarber and Voisine presented Popko with the
plaque, but they both agreed that Popko’s attention
was clearly on the cane.
“She was waving the cane during the whole ceremony,” Voisine said.
“It was an honor to be a part of this,” Voisine continued. “She looked so pretty, all dressed up in pink.
When she passes, the family will return the cane to us
and then it will be presented to the oldest resident. I
hope that won't happen for a long time. We wish
Margaret health and happiness as she celebrates her
104th birthday year.”
Voisine said she made a motion to present a “Gold
Cane” to the oldest resident in Indian Orchard at an
IOCC meeting held a few months ago. The motion
passed. Ramos, who was present at the meeting,
offered to assist Voisine in her search with identifying
the oldest resident, to purchase and donate the cane
and to participate in the presentation.
“To my knowledge, the oldest Indian Orchard resident had never been recognized,” said Voisine. “I
know that many communities have presented a Gold
Cane to their oldest resident, so I thought ‘why
shouldn’t we?’ I am glad the motion passed.”
Although Voisine and Ramos quickly identified
Popko as the oldest resident, they encountered an
obstacle – Indian Orchard is considered a suburb of
Springfield, and Springfield already recognizes its
oldest resident with a Gold Cane.
“We decided to change the Gold Cane to a Purple
Cane. That solved the problem,” said Voisine. “It is
actually better that it is purple in color as that is the
official color for Indian Orchard. Our name, ‘Indian
Orchard,’ came about from the Plum Orchards that
our resident Indian tribe utilized long ago.”
We’re giving people
something to talk about!

I have been open less than a
year. Without advertising in
Turley’s newspaper The B’s Hive
wouldn’t be noticed. Thank you
for being a great paper for our
community.”
Popko’s son, Julian, said his family members were
honored to have their mother recognized by so many.
He added that he was very surprised when the IOCC
contacted him and requested permission to present his
mother with the Purple Cane, the recognition plaque
and the citations.
According to Julian Popko, his mother, his late
father John and his siblings immigrated to Indian
Orchard from Poland in 1949. They were assisted by
his mother’s sister Mary Welcz and her husband
Michael, both Indian Orchard residents, with settling
in to the neighborhood. His mother, a seamstress, and
his father, a blacksmith, soon opened their own business – Popko Dry Cleaning, located on Acton Street.
In addition to offering dry cleaning to local residents,
his mother also offered her seamstress services and
his father offered shoe-making services. Popko is a
benefactor of Cathedral High School and has been an
active Immaculate Conception parishioner since moving to Indian Orchard.
“At the conclusion of the ceremony, when everyone had left, she was not sure what the Purple Cane
was all about,” said Julian Popko. “She kept saying,
‘Are they telling me that I need a cane? Are they saying that I have to use it when I go to church every
Sunday?’ Now she just pats the cane and says ‘Yeah,
Yeah.’ We are very grateful and thankful to everyone
for their kindness.”
“We were honored to recognize our oldest resident.
I would like to extend my gratitude to Pat, Orlando
and Jonathan for the role they played in creating a
new tradition for Indian Orchard,” said Yarber. “I
would also like to thank the Popko family for allowing us the opportunity to honor Margaret and for gifting us several framed photographs taken during our
presentation. We will hang them with pride in our
headquarters.”

ineligible player didn’t play in that contest.
“We have about 300 student-athletes
at Ludlow High School, and there is a
team of people who makes sure that
each of our student-athletes are eligible
before the start of each season,” Nemeth
said. “There are a lot of checks and balances that we follow, and our system
failed in this case. We all missed it, and
we’re very disappointed about it. We’re
definitely going to be taking the whole
process a little bit slower in the future.
We self-reported our mistake to the
MIAA (Massachusetts Interscholastic
Athletic Association), and we’ll be
appealing it.”
According to MIAA spokesperson
Paul Wetzel, the MIAA approved a new
rule this past summer, which allows an
ineligible team to appeal in order to
qualify for the postseason tournament.
The appeal, which will not change the
Lions forfeited matches, will be heard
by a subcommittee of the Board of
Directors.
The Lions had a 1-11-1 overall
record following their 1-1 tie against
rival Amherst High School, last Friday
night.
“It has been a very tough last 48
hours for everyone on the team, but I
think our players are still focused,”
said Ludlow head coach Greg
Kolodziey during an interview before
the start of the Smith Division road
match. “We’ve held a few team meetings during the past couple of days,
and we explained the situation to the
players. We’re trying to maintain our
goals from the beginning of the season.
Hopefully, this is just a bump in the
road, and we can find a little light at
the end of the tunnel.”
Another way that an athletic team
can qualify for the postseason tournament besides finishing the regular season with a .500 or better record is by
finishing in first or second place in the
league standings. While the Lions, who
had a 0-4 league record following the
forfeits, couldn’t finish in first place,
they did have a chance to finish in second place if they would’ve won their
final four league game, and Amherst
(10-0-3, 3-0-2) had lost all of their
remaining league games. Those hopes
came to an end following the tie last
Friday night. The Lions only chance of
making the postseason tournament now
is by winning the appeal.
“As the director of athletics the failure was under my watch, and the
responsibility falls on my shoulders,”
Brillo said. “Our athletes work hard for
the opportunity to play in the tournament and I feel awful that a human
error may cost them that spot. As a
school we understood that reporting
this violation would create anger and
frustration, but we knew it was the
right thing to do. The main focus now
is the MIAA appeal process and the
possibility of our student-athletes hav-

ing the opportunity to finish their season on the field in the Western Mass.
Tournament.”
Having the Ludlow boys soccer
team not taking part in the postseason
tournament is similar to the New
England Patriots not playing in the
NFL playoffs.
“Other teams always want to play us
in the postseason tournament,” said
Nemeth, who was one of the many
Lions supports who attended last
Friday’s match against Amherst “They
just want to play the best boys soccer
team in Western Mass. We’ve proven
during the past 50 years that our boys
team is one of the best soccer teams in
Western Mass.”
Ludlow seniors Mike Goncalves,
Nick Dos Santos, and Tyler Diolalevi
gave their thoughts about the situation
that took place last week.
“This is very unfair for everyone,”
said Goncalves, who returned to action
against Amherst after missing several
weeks with an injury. “Ludlow is
known for soccer, and something like
this stains it. Hopefully, they do give
us some sympathy because it’ll be
heartbreaking if we don’t make the
tournament this year.”
“It’s a very difficult situation,” said
Dos Santos, who scored the game-winning goal on a free kick in the final
seconds of the Agawam game. “It’s an
honor to be a member of this soccer
team because of its rich tradition.
We’ve lost in the Western Mass. finals
the last two years, and we were hoping
to win the title this year. It wasn’t a
mistake made by a member of our
team, so I really think that we still
belong in the tournament this year.”
“We’ve been playing soccer together our whole lives, and we certainly
don’t want to see it end this way,” said
Diolalevi, who has been the Lions
starting goalkeeper during the past
couple of years. “We’re a hardworking
team, and it wouldn’t be fair if we
don’t get to play in the Western Mass.
tournament this year. We would also
like to thank everyone for their support. ”
The other seniors listed on the Lions
varsity boys soccer roster are Jordan
Ferris, Dan Jalowski, Sam Fernandes,
Bruno Machado, Halit Bayrak, Gabe
Pereira, David Goncalves, Nick
Cordeiro, Connor Doherty, Luis
Gomes, Brad Garete, and Zach
Frangules.
“All of the seniors are very emotional right now because they’ve been
a part of this program for the past couple of years,” Kolodziey said. “We
have five regular season games remaining, and those could be the final games
of their high school careers. I’m hoping that they do get another chance to
play in the postseason tournament.”

Lady Lions lock up postseason bid Amherst,
Ludlow
garner tie
By Tim Peterson
Turley Publications
Sports Correspondent
LUDLOW - A year ago, the
Ludlow girls varsity soccer
team failed to qualify for the
Western Mass. Division 1
Tournament for the first time
since the 2003 season. The
Lady Lions have used it as
motivation this season.
The Lady Lions punched
their ticket into this year ’s
postseason tournament following an exciting 2-1 home victory against the Northampton
Blue Devils, last Monday
night, Oct. 6.
“We’ve worked very hard to
put ourselves in this position
and it’s a very nice feeling to
clinch a postseason berth,” said
Ludlow senior forward Kailah
Papuga, who scored a goal and
had an assist in the non-league
match against Northampton.
“We weren’t very lucky last
year, but we’re going to come
back and prove something to
everyone this year.”
The Lady Lions, who
missed making the tournament
by a single point last year,
improved their 2014 season
record to 8-1-3 following last
Monday’s home match.
Ludlow has won six of their
eight matches by one goal.
“Qualifying for the postseason tournament is something
that we’ve wanted to do since
the first day of preseason practice,” said Ludlow head coach

Katie Marino. “The best lesson
that we learned was not making the tournament last year
and it did give us some extra
motivation coming into this
season. We’re hoping to get a
high seed because we want to
go a little bit farther than just
making the tournament.”

matches played between Smith
Division rivals Ludlow and
Amherst have ended in ties.
Seven day after playing a
scoreless tie, the second meeting
of the regular season between
the two rivals ended in a 1-1
draw before a large crowd in a
hard fought battle under the
bright lights at Amherst High
School last Friday night.
“Another

Amherst,” said Ludlow head
coach Greg Kolodziey following
the match. “We knew that it was
going to be a circus type of an
atmosphere here tonight and I
thought we responded very well.
It was a very good futbol game
between very good teams on a
Friday night.”
Both matches between the
two squads last season ended 22 and 1-1 ties. Their second
meeting of the 2012 regular season also ended in a 0-0 tie. They

girls volleyball team has
enjoyed a solid season thus far
and are poised to take home a
berth into the postseason. This
week they beat Chicopee Comp
one of two finalists in the tournament a year ago. In comeback fashion, they beat them 32.
It was the second time they
beat them by that score this year
and like the first, the Lions had
to rally from behind. Unlike the
first time, though Ludlow won
the first set with relative ease,
but then dropped the next two to
put themselves into a must win
situation. In the fourth set, they
caught the Colts and then held
them at arms length throughout
the tiebreaker.
In the opener, Ludlow scored
the first two points and soon
after built their advantage to 6-1
on the strength of the inside play
Alyssa Guyon, who would be
spiking shots from all over the
court. As the first set wore on,
the Lions gradually built their
lead to 19-10 and then 22-11
with Breauna Allore and Olivia
Barbeau figuring into a lot of the
points. The Colts then made a
late run to close he gap, getting
as close as 24-19 on the serves
of Alicia Lacosse, but they could
no come all the way back and
Ludlow had a 1-0 lead after a
25-19 win.
The Lady Lions again got the
early lead in the second set,
going up 4-1 after a Guyon kill.
Comp came back and scored
five of the next six points to take
a 6-5 lead. Brittani Cundiff got
them the lead. Back came the
Lady Lions and after a Nina
Dias kill, they led 9-6. Back
and forth it went. Comp went
ahead 10-9 on Kacey Legare
kill; then it was Ludlow at 1916, the latter lead after an Allore
tip. The Colts scored the next
four points, taking the lead at
20-19 on an Alyssa Stefanelli
kill and they would not trail
again, though Dias' tip tied it.
Four straight points made it set
point and Comp evened the
match with a 25-21 win.
The Colts took charge in the
third at the outset. Destinie
Montano had two aces and the
Colts led 4-0. The Lions did
manage to come back and tie it
at 6-6 on a Guyon ace, but a

Exciting finishes for Ludlow Youth Football
AGAWAM - Football fans needn’t have traveled any
farther than Kirk Parker Field in Agawam on Sunday to
experience the same brand of thrills, chills, and heartpounding excitement normally reserved for that place
just a few miles down the road. In dramatic fashion,
Ludlow Football walked away from their Week 7
match-up versus the Agawam Warriors with two wins,
one loss, and their eyes fully locked in on the SAFL
playoff prize.
Try as they may, the Pee-Wee team just couldn’t
catch a break, losing 20-0 in the day’s first contest.
What these young Lion cubs lack in terms of wins, they
make up for with constant improvement and Lion pride.
There is definitely no shame in their game. Brady
DeBarge and Ryan Kennedy led a hard working offense
that continued to move the ball well, while defensively,
players such as Aiden Carmona, Keith Melanson, Jr.,
and Aiden Hervieux stepped up and played well. Jadon
Gibbs and Roniel Traveras also had a good game for
the Lions defense.
Sometimes in football, it takes one big play to make
a difference. Ludlow Juniors Chris Fogg and Jake
Manewich made that play in the Lions 28-22 win. With
under 30 seconds remaining in a tie game, Fogg, the
Lions’ quarterback, hit Manewich with a perfectly
placed pass. A determined Manewich showed his
impressive running skills by juking his way into the end
zone to secure the Lions’ win. Up to that point it had
been a roller coaster ride with each team trading scores.
Jamonte Beckett ran for two touchdowns and
Manewich ran for another. Led by Wyatt Chambers, the
Lions’ defense continued its solid play. Makia GizaBilodeau, Cam LaPatin, Collin Doyle and Fogg all had
big plays against an Agawam offense that refused to
quit.
In contrast to the Junior game, it took many players
to make big plays at the right time for the Seniors to
secure their spot in the play-offs with a huge 32-20 victory. This game was another touchdown-trading thrill
ride up until the final 5:00. After Agawam took a 14-12

grass field than it was last week when we played them
over at Lusitano Stadium,” Kolodziey said. “It was
more of a slugfest tonight.”
During the 16th minute of the opening half, Ludlow
senior goalkeeper Tyler Diotalevi (10 saves) made an
outstanding diving save on a free kick by Amherst senior forward Tan Robson from about 25 yards out.
A little more than 5:00 later, Diotalevi made a key
save following another free kick by Robson.
Diotalevi received plenty of support from the defensive unit led by sophomore Nick McKay, sophomore
Josh Grywalski, sophomore Dominick Albano, and senior Gabe Pereira.
The Lions best scoring chance in the opening 40:00
came in the 31st minute on a rebound shot by senior
forward Zach Frangules, but it was saved by Amherst
junior goalkeeper George Holt (three saves).
The Lions did take a 1-0 lead less than 10:00 into
the second half.
Junior midfielder Evan Jurkowski began the scoring
play by beating his defender and sending a crossing
pass from the right side to Mike Goncalves near the far
post. Then Goncalves celebrated with his teammates
after firing a shot into the back of the net.
“That’s a classic textbook practice play,” Kolodziey
said. “Evan can beat people down the side, and Mike is
always there to get a toe on it.
The Hurricanes gained the momentum soon after the
Lions had taken the lead.
The game-tying goal was scored by Amherst senior
forward Alex LaRaja during the final 14:00 of the
match.
The members of both teams are hoping to face each
other for the third time this season in the postseason
tournament.

win the first meeting of that season by the final score of
2-1, which was also played in Amherst.
“They’re a very physical team and their the type of a
team that we match up best against,” senior Ludlow
forward Mike Goncalves. “Both teams have good goal
scorers, a good defense, and good goalkeepers. That’s
why we have all these ties against them during the past
couple of years.”
Most of the Ludlow players and coaches didn’t sleep
very much the night before last Friday’s match after
finding out the previous day that they would be forced
forfeit seven of their eight victories and both of their
ties because they had used an ineligible player in those
matches. The school has filed an appeal with the
MIAA.
The Lions, who had an overall record 8-2-2 before
the forfeits entered this week’s action with a 1-11-1
mark. They’re only hope of qualifying for the Western
Mass. Division 1 Tournament now is by winning the
appeal. The MIAA approved a new rule this past summer, which gives an ineligible high school athletic team
the opportunity to make an appeal in order to qualify
for the postseason tournament. Even if Ludlow wins
the appeal, their current season record won’t change.
One of the bright spots for the Lions was the return
of Mike Goncalves to the starting lineup against the
Hurricanes. He had been sidelined for several weeks
with an injury.
“It feels good to be back on the field again,”
Goncalves said. “I did miss being out there during the
past couple of weeks. It was very exciting playing
under the lights again.”
The first half of last Friday’s contest was like a
chess match, as both teams felt each other out.
“It was a little different type of a game tonight on a

fun to watch run as he brought the ball inside the

Greg Ricardi recovered a perfectly executed on-side

Palatino, who’s also a midfielder, are the
Lady Lions tri-captains this year.
McCarthy, who’s a two-year starter,
had posted four consecutive shutout victories prior to the match against
Northampton (5-6-1). She only had to
make three saves against the Blue
Devils.
“The goalkeeper is the anchor of
your team,” Marino said. “Meghan is a
very strong player for us and she’s been
doing a great job. She was field player
during her sophomore year.”
The members of the Lady Lions
defensive unit are sophomore Andrea
Jozefczyk, junior Morgan Foye, sophomore Taylor Masse and Jordan.
“Our defense has been jelling as a
group,” Marino said. “They’ve been
working very hard and they’ve been
playing very well as a unit.”
Sophomore Nissa Pereira is another
key defender, but she’s missed several
games with an injury.
The only goal of the first half was
scored by the Lady Lions during the
17th minute.
The scoring play began with a crossing pass from Santos to Papuga, who
fired a shot into the back of net between
Northampton freshman goalkeeper
Sydney White (seven saves) and the
right post for her fourth goal of the season.
“It was a perfect cross by Olivia and
a perfect shot by Kailah,” Marino said.
“We’re been working on those type of
plays a lot in practice.”
Sophomore forward Julianna
Iwasinski and junior midfielder Jennifer
Hackett had also scored four goals
entering this week’s action.
Ludlow kept the 1-0 lead until the
62nd minute when Northampton senior
Lily Glading-Dilorenzo scored an unassisted goal, which tied the score.
Marino and the Ludlow faithful fans

a Lady Lions player down before scoring the tying goal. Marino argued the
call and she received a yellow card from

up her team.
A little more than 10:00 later, Papuga
sent a crossing pass to Hackett, who
blasted a shot from about 20 yards out
into the back of the net.
“If Jen hadn’t scored the go-ahead
goal, we probably wouldn’t have been
very happy if this game had ended in a
tie,” Marino said. “We put a ton of pressure on them during the final 20:00.”
The Lady Lions lost to Coombs
Division Rival West Springfield, 1-0, on
the road last Thursday night, which
pretty much ended their league title
hopes.

22-16 on ace by McKenzie Bingham.
Ludlow held on for a 25-18 win and the
match was headed to a tiebreaker.
A Legare tip and a Guyon had the
score at 1-1. Guyon got the lead with a
tip, but a net serve tied it again. A Dias
tip was followed by a long serve for a 33 score and a Kayla Murphy tip was followed by a return out of bounds to leave
it at 4-4. One more time the teams traded points to make it 5-5. Then Ludlow
started to take charge. A long return
gave them a 6-5 lead and a net return of
Bingham's serve got them their first lead
of more than a point. They traded points
and led 8-6 after an Allore tip. The
teams changed sides. It was still two at
9-7. Then Guyon had a block and
Barbeau an ace and it was 11-7. Comp
got one back on a tip by Legare, but the
next four points went to Ludlow. Guyon
had a block; Dias scored an ace; Guyon
had two kills and the Lions won 15-8 to
take the match.
Guyon had 23 kills on the day.

“The people here in Ludlow have
opened the doors to me,” Viera added.
“They also gave me an opportunity to
coach the jayvee team and I’m very
grateful for that.”
Viera’s Western Mass. squad won its
fifth match last Saturday night after
opening the season with a couple of ties.
One of those ties was a scoreless draw
against the Ironbound Soul (2-1-2) in the
second match of the regular season.
“We knew that this was going to be
another tough game because they’re a
very good team,” said Western Mass.
head coach Federico Molinari “I thought
we played very well during the first half
and we’re happy to get the three points.
We want to continue to play the same
way in our final three games.”
Unlike the first meeting of the season
between the two squads, Western Mass.
managed to take a 1-0 lead in the fifth
minute of the opening half.
Viera began the scoring play by sending a crossing pass to midfielder Will
Daniels inside the box from the right
side. Daniels then sent the ball over to
midfielder Mike Matera, who blasted a
wide open shot into the left corner past
goalkeeper Ralston Robinson (seven
saves).
While Matera is listed as a midfielder, he was all over the field against
Ironbound Soul. The only position that
Matera didn’t play was goalkeeper.
“Mike is a type of soccer player who
can always go up and down the field,”
Molinari said. “He’s had some scoring
opportunities in other games, but he
couldn’t put them away. He always
works very hard at practice and in
games.”
Ironbound Soul scored the equalizer
on a penalty kick during the 20th minute
after a Western Mass. player was called
for handling. Forward Christiano
Francois lined the PK into the back of
the net past Western Mass. goalkeeper
Warren Gross (seven saves).
It was only the third goal given up
this season by Gross, who always
receives plenty of support from his
defensive unit led by James Goff, Pat

Boucher, and Trey Jasenski.
Late in the opening half, Matera sent
a crossing pass from the right side over
to forward Luke Perry, who put the ball
into the right corner giving the home
team a 2-1 halftime advantage.
“It’s always nice to finish the first
half by being a goal ahead,” Molinari
said. “The players have a lot more confidence at the start of the second half. We
continued to play hard because they’re a
very good team.”
Both teams only had a couple of scoring chances in the second half, but
Western Mass. walked away with another victory.
Western Mass. will be playing a road
match against the Evergreen Diplomats
on Saturday night before playing their
final home match of the fall season
against Icon FC on Oct. 25. They’ll be
playing five more home matches next
spring.

Ludlow C.A.R.E.S. Coalition presents….
LOVE YOURSELF.
Drug Free.
Children need a lot of power to stand firm under
peer pressure demands and media control. The
most powerful weapon when it comes to alcohol
and drugs for your children is facts and knowledge.
We all owe it to our children to become educated.
Learn the warning signs and help our kids avoid
the temptations that drugs and alcohol have.
Parents, grandparents, concerned citizens,
educators, and students are all encouraged to
attend. Come learn and listen from the local law
enforcement and various community organizations.
