By Michael DeanStar Contributing Writer
On May 17, Chief Justice John Roberts delivered a compelling speech before a crowd of roughly 2,000 at the Robert H. Jackson Center in Jamestown. On that sunny morning the Buffalo native began his address by stating “It is great to be back home.” Roberts was answered with applause and cheers before he lightened the crowd up with humor. “When a judge speaks in court he almost always disappoints half of those present. It is only on an occasion such as this outside court, that he has a fair chance of disappoint-ing everyone.”
He then engaged into the body of his address: The enduring legacy of Robert H. Jackson. On the 10th anniversary of the dedica-tion of the Robert H. Jackson Center, it would only be appro-priate for a Chief Justice to be present, as Chief Justice William Rehnquist did when the center opened.
The date of the speech coincided with the date of the Supreme Court case Brown v. The Board of Education 59 years earlier.
The landmark case established segregation in schools unconsti-tutional under Chief Justice Earl
Warren, and associate Judge Robert H. Jackson signing off on the historic 9-0 decision. This
case was a compelling victory in the struggle for the civil rights movement.
`Having recently suffered a heart attack at the time of the case, Roberts makes note of Jackson’s legacy for justice, fairness, and equality. “Symbolic of his resolve, he left the hospital on Monday morning May 17, and journeyed to the court to be present for the announcement of the Brown Decision.”
In a unique and controversial move, President Truman named Jackson as U.S. chief of counsel for the prosecution of Nazi war criminals at the Nuremberg Tri-als. Having an unprecedented task trying war criminals, Jack-son implemented due process and transparency. He stated: “We must never forget that the record on which we judge these defen-dants is the record on which his-tory will judge us tomorrow. To pass these defendants a poisoned chalice is to put it to our lips as well.”
Roberts made note that Jack-son’s public service duties were greater to him than being a law-yer. Roberts also made mention

Hops, a hugely popular crop across New York State in the late 1800s and early 1900s which had fallen prey to disease and Prohibi-tion, has received renewed interest of late with the popularity of the local farm movement and increase in the number of homebrewers and microbreweries.
Awareness of the possible ben-efi ts of hops production is also the result of legislation signed by Gov. Cuomo designed to increase demand for locally grown farm products, and expand industry-related economic development and tourism.
With those possible incentives, growers and grape farmers across NYS have been signing up to learn more about cultivation of the crop during Chautauqua in June’s conference “Hops Produc-tion in the Lake Erie Region” taking place at Cornell Lake Erie Research and Extension Labora-tory (CLEREL) in Portland next month.

2 CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, MAY 24, 2013
Most people try to forget negative events that hap-pen in life, but the devasta-tion wrought by tornados as seen across the country this week has brought to mind a few of the tornados that have occurred in my lifetime in Chautauqua County.
This month marked the 30th anniversary of a tor-nado that touched down in the areas of Potter Road in the town of Chautauqua, in Stedman, and at Chautau-qua Shores before touching down across the lake in Ellery Center.
I recall a picture of my husband’s property in Stedman, where 50 to 80 large trees were destroyed by the storm - scattered collectively on the ground they resembled match-sticks. The neighbor’s newly constructed home on Chautauqua-Stedman Road was leveled, and he also lost a barn and live-stock. Still another house and barn was destroyed on Potter Road. To this day,
we fi nd misplaced items in our woods attributed to the storm, which occurred on May 2, 1983.
Phil Zimmer, then direc-tor of communications at Chautauqua Institution said the storm destroyed 15 to 20 boats at the insti-tution’s yacht club and knocked down 40 trees. Deputy Roy Hunt said “out at Chautauqua Shores, I don’t think there’s a house that hasn’t got the roof gone or been partly torn apart.”
Beyond the misfortunate of property loss, was the greater tragedy of the two lives that were lost because of that storm. As reported in the The New York Times a day later, one woman died when a house collapsed and another was killed when a vehicle was fl ipped over by winds.
In 2010, a tornado tore through counties in south-western New York, and touched down in the village of Mayville, just a few miles from my home. The roof of a condo was ripped off on Route 430, as was the roof of the Mayville Liquor store. This time, friends of my son would capture on video the storm roar-ing across the lake near Mayville Park on their cell phones. Fortunately, there were no reports of injuries, but a national grid spokesman said the storm left 12,500 homes without power.
There have been many other tornados in our coun-ty, but the ones closest to home are often seared into our minds. It is important
to remember those who lost everything this week in Oklahoma, which was on a scale that most of us can barely fathom.

in a variety of ways that perhaps Jackson would not like what he sees in the law-yers of D.C. and across the county. With that, Roberts called upon the lawyers of America to remember the integrity and greatness that was and still is the legacy of Robert H. Jackson.
“Members of the bench and bar must raise their efforts to come together to build a cathedral, what we call the rule of law. It is an endeavor in which we should take great pride. I congratulate the Jackson Center on ten sterling years of supporting that endeavor.”

Contributed Article1891 Fredonia Opera House
One of the ways that the 1891 Fredonia Opera House is able to mount its annual Bach & Beyond Baroque Music Festival is by raising funds through a special “BachYard Sale” in Barker Common during Fredonia’s village-wide At-tic & Seller Days.
This year’s sale will be held on Sat., June 8, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and will include a wide variety of house wares, furniture, CDs, knick-knacks, chil-dren’s toys, collectibles and curiosities, among other
items. The sale will be held in a large tent in Barker Common directly across the street from the Opera House and Village Hall.
There will also be an assortment of delicious homemade baked goods, provided by Opera House members and supporters and, sale-goers will be able to purchase raffl e tickets for a made-to-order Italian tiramisu donated by Chef Donn Smeragliuolo, of Monika’s Delites and the former Intermezzo Coffee-house.
“We’re very grateful to our supporters who donate items for the sale, as well as
to the many bargain-hunt-ers who patronize the sale,” notes Opera House Execu-tive Director Rick Davis. “The proceeds from the sale help us to present the Bach & Beyond Baroque Music Festival, which is ar-guably our largest program undertaking each year.”
The Opera House will be accepting gently used items in good condition for dona-tion to the sale up until June 5. For more informa-tion, contact the Opera House Administration Of-fi ce at 716-679-0891.

There may be some cre-dence to the old saying that “beauty comes from within.” Scientifi c research shows that the appear-ance of your largest, most visible organ -- your skin -- can be directly affected by the vitamins, nutrients and minerals you feed your body.
Do you crave a healthy glow? Before you cough up cash for that pricey spa treatment, try improving your skin woes from the inside out. Best of all, you’ll benefi t your overall health and wellness at the same time.
Here are three ingredients for healthy skin:
Vitamin E
Vitamin E works as an an-tioxidant and is important for healthy skin. Luckily, it’s found naturally in some of the tastiest foods, such as kiwi, eggs, nuts, and green leafy vegetables. Cooking with olive oil is another easy way to get a dose of vitamin E. So in lieu of French fries, try sautéing some spinach in olive oil
for a healthful complexion-friendly side dish.
You may also consider taking a vitamin E supple-ment.
Astaxanthin
What is astaxanthin? Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells, organs and body tis-sues from oxidative dam-age more powerfully than many other members of its carotenoid chemical family, including beta-carotene, lycopene and lutein.
“Astaxanthin supports healthy skin, especially during sun exposure, acting as a force fi eld to prevent toxic, unstable free radical molecules from attacking your skin and causing premature aging,” says Dr. Gerald R. Cysews-ki, Ph.D, Chief Scientifi c Offi cer of Nutrex Hawaii, a nutritional supplement manufacturer.
Unfortunately, you can’t fi nd astaxanthin by taking a simple trip down the pro-duce aisle in your grocery store. There are only two main natural sources -- the microalgae that produce it, and the sea creatures that
consume the algae (such as salmon, shellfi sh, and krill).
Whether you dislike fi sh, or you simply need a break occasionally, look into incorporating astaxanthin into your diet through supplements, such as Bio-Astin, which is available in different doses. Beyond supporting healthy skin, a daily dose of 4 mg may also improve cardiovascular health, boost immunity, and promote a healthy infl ammation balance.
More information about the benefi ts of astaxanthin can be found at http://www.nutrex-hawaii.com/bioastin.
Vitamin B Complex
For a thorough beauty treatment, be sure to get plenty of vitamin B. Biotin, which is found in vitamin B complex, is necessary for healthy skin, hair and nails. You can source it naturally by including liver, Swiss chard, whole grains and soybeans in your diet.
With a few tweaks to your diet, you can fi nally put down the beauty magazine and start dishing out your own advice.
Contributed ArticleLake Shore Health Care Center
For coworkers of the late staff pharmacist at Lake Shore Health Care Center in Irving, NY, a new addition to the front lobby is a warm remembrance of her sunny smile and happy personal-ity. For visitors and patients, the new bench is a stopping place for resting, refl ection and waiting for rides away from the wind and rain. The new bench, located just inside the main doors of the hospital, was purchased through a generous donation made in memory of Kath-leen Fearman, RPh, Staff Pharmacist at Lake Shore Health Care Center, who passed away unexpectedly in July 2011. The funds were contributed by her niece, an employee of the hospital’s Surgical Department, Caro-line Fearman, RN, CNOR, RNFA.
“Now we’ll just walk in the hospital and think of her,” Ms. Fearman said. The bench features a plaque that commemorates Ms. Fearman’s “Aunt Kathy” and a butterfl y etching, a
signifi cant symbol for the late phar-macy staffer. Hospital offi cials chose the prominent location for the new furnishing as a testament to the late employee’s outgoing personality. “I think it’s a wonderful trib-ute to Kathy,” explained Chuck Spicola, a fellow staff pharmacist who worked with Kathleen. “She was a very dedicated employee who always put a smile on everyone’s face with her quick wit,” he said.
“She’s sadly missed.” Kath-leen had been a member of the hospital staff since 1995.

Angelina Jolie announced last week that she chose drastic measures to avoid getting breast cancer and succumbing to an early death like her mother had. She elected to have both breasts removed based on positive results of genetic marker testing shat showed she had greater than an 87% chance of getting the same type of cancer. According to Angelina, it was her medical choice to intervene in her physiologi-cal health and remove that part of her that would get
the cancer and prolong her life as much as possible.
Intervention medicine, like the elective surgery chosen by Jolie, is medi-cine targeted to forcibly interfere between life and a physiological threat with a high risk factor for serious disease or mortality. Pre-ventive medicine, on the other hand, anticipates the arrival of medical condi-tions based on risk factors and attempts to keep these conditions from occurring.
Risk factors are those at-tributes associated with a specifi c disease or condi-tion that may or may not have caused the condition but can have an affect. The preventive medicine approach monitors risk factors over time and tries to implement change in a patients’ health program in order to prevent an identi-fi ed condition. For exam-ple, the preventive control of risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cho-
lesterol, stress, weight and inactivity is geared toward avoiding heart disease, diabetes and stroke. There is nothing that can be removed from the body to avoid getting one of these diseases. Prevention is the only cure and even that is not 100% effective.
Intervention medicine targets drastic action based on the detection of risk fac-tors that increase the risk of serious health conditions signifi cantly, such as Ms. Jolie. While there is no guarantee that the surgery will prevent onset of the cancer 100%, the risk of getting it has been signifi -cantly reduced to less than 5%. Jolie chose to take her health into her own hands. She made a risk assessment based on family history and genetic screening, consulted with her team and chose to make her own decision for her health. A choice that so many women want to make on so many
different levels.
Like many choice issues, intervention medicine, par-ticularly genetic testing or elective surgery, could have ethical issues surround-ing it, making the choice controversial for individu-als as well as the healthcare system. A patient must be well informed and not make hasty decisions when confronted with serious medical decisions.
Should everyone have genetic screening for healthcare approval and how would that affect pre-existing conditions? Should expensive tests be conducted based on indi-vidual requests or doctors orders? What if there is nothing that can be done anyway? Does this be-come a form of crystal ball medicine? Can doctors be sued if the patient gets the disease despite intervention medicine? Will signifi cant life or death decisions be made based on testing with
known false positive or false negative rates or inac-curacies?
Similar to prenatal screen-ing, the decision lies with the patient that has to make a fi nal choice. What is the risk and what would you do about it once you
know? Prevention may be conventional, but interven-tion adds a whole, new challenge to the world of medicine, patients and providers.

A non-profi t organization dedicated to making a dif-ference for our military vet-erans is currently seeking volunteers who are willing to help improve the lives of those who have proudly served and helped protect our nation.
Volunteers who already assist WNY Heroes reside all over Western New York, with the organization’s board of directors look-ing towards Chautauqua County for interested individuals who would like to show their appreciation and support of veteran service members and their families.
Founded in 2007 by United States Army veteran Chris Kreiger and commu-nity activist Dionne Kane, WNY Heroes is a not-for-profi t organization serving the needs of Western New York’s veterans and their families.
The mission of WNY He-roes is to provide veterans, members of the armed services and the widows and children of deceased veterans with access to essential services, fi nancial assistance and resources
that support their lives and sustain their dignity.
WNY Heroes is overseen by an advisory board com-prised of the chief executive organizations of partnering organizations, community business leaders and repre-sentatives of local philan-thropic foundations.
Partnering organizations include the Mental Health Association of Erie County, Western New York Vet-erans Homeless Housing Coalition, Horizon Health Services and BlueCross BlueShield of Western New York.
Those who already serve as volunteers speak fondly of the personal joy they get from helping those in need.
“I became involved with WNY Heroes through a friend of mine who suggest-ed this organization could use my assistance,” recalls Kim Jackson, who serves as WNY Heroes’ events coordinator and volunteer recruiter. “I remember the conversation like it was yesterday because I didn’t know who WNY Heroes was and that surprised me. How did I not know we had a veterans organiza-tion that solely supports our own right here in Western New York?”
As part of their ongoing effort to spread the word about the organization and help to recruit new volun-teers, the fi rst-ever WNY Heroes Summer Barbecue will celebrate and support veterans and their families. Scheduled to take place on Sunday, June 9, the event will be held rain or shine from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. The celebration will take place at Wings Meeting Place & Pavilion, located at 3964 California Road in the Town of Orchard Park.
The barbecue will feature games for children and adults, special performanc-es by a clown and a magi-cian, a Karaoke contest, raffl es and other family-ori-ented activities. The cost of admission is either $25 per person (includes chicken barbecue dinner and access to the “NASCAR Rid-ing Experience”) or $10 per person (includes hot dog, soft drink and chips dinner and a chance to win a “Paintball Party” for 10 people.) Proceeds from the summer barbecue will benefi t veterans living in Western New York.
Volunteers achieve a great sense of satisfaction when assisting the organization by helping to provide guid-ance for veterans who are
in need.
“I believe the reason for my family’s safety, my neighbors’ safety and of course my own personal safety is because of every veteran who has willingly given their life in honor of their country for each and every American citizen,” says Elaine Jarzynka, who serves as secretary of the WNY Heroes board of di-
rectors and chair of events.
“WNY Heroes gives each veteran the dignity and help they deserve. How could you say no to such a great organization that never turns their back on a veteran? It is my honor to provide immediate assistance to the veterans returning home and their families while they are still deployed. As an American
citizen, it is the least I can do for them.”

In celebration of Older Americans Month and the 40th Anniversary of Chau-tauqua County Offi ce for the Aging (OFA), the OFA
is sponsoring an informa-tional event for seniors, their families, agency per-sonnel and any interested parties.
A Law NY and Medicare Fraud Summit will be presented on May 30 in
two sessions. The fi rst ses-sion will be held at the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, 21 Mt. Vernon Place in Jamestown from 9 a.m. until noon. The second session will be held at the Dunkirk Senior
Center, 45 Cliffstar Court in Dunkirk from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.
Patrick Slagle, an attorney with Legal Assistance of Western New York (Law NY), will be presenting information about wills, health care proxies and power of attorney. The information will be pro-vided as a guideline for seniors and their families to empower them in making fi nancial and health care decisions. Individual docu-ments will not be complet-ed at the session.
In addition, Lifespan and Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) will be presenting a Medicare Fraud Summit.
Senior Medicare Patrol is a partnership between the Federal Government and New York State agencies to fi ght fraud and abuse in Medicare and Medicaid.
Lifespan is a nonprofi t Human Services Agency that provides information, guidance and non-medical services to people in the second half of life. Ann Marie Hurley, Health Insurance Specialist from Lifespan, and Rick Shim-ko, a volunteer with SMP and Lifespan, will present the Medicaid Fraud Sum-mit. In the United States, one of every ten dollars of Medicare is fraud, which translates into billions of
dollars that are lost every year. Hurley and Shimko will discuss how to protect loved ones from Medicare fraud, how to detect if one is a victim of Medicare fraud, and how to report it.
No registration is required for the event and refresh-ments will be provided by Doyle Medical Monitoring.
For more information please contact NY Con-nects at Mayville 753-4582, Dunkirk 363-4582 and Jamestown 661-7582.

Keeping the FaithAs a Christian, I know I shouldn’t fear, but I feel controlled by it. Can you help me? (Part 2)
Last time we shared the fi rst two steps to freedom from fear. The fi rst step was a commitment to the Lordship of Jesus Christ and the second step was to know that the source of fear is the devil (2 Timothy 1:7).
The third step is to realize that as a Christian, fear is not your mas-ter. You have authority over fear! 2 Timothy 1:7 states, “For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a
sound mind.” God did not cre-ate us with fear and it isn’t in His desires for us to be fearful. It is not in our nature as Christians. This scripture also states that our real nature is love, power, and a sound mind! Another word for “power” is courage or boldness. This is the real us! If we really believed this, we would never give in to the spirit of fear.
The Bible says that we have been given authority over fear in the Name of Jesus. Jesus said in Luke 10:19, “Behold, I give to you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power
of the enemy: and nothing will by any means hurt you.” Serpents and scorpions are often used as symbols of satanic power. Jesus has given us the power (authority) to tread on them, which means that we can command them to leave us alone! Where do we get this authority? Through the Name of Jesus. In John 14:13-14 Jesus promised that “And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. (14) You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.”
To be free from fear, you must
know what your rights and privi-leges are as a Christian. Jesus said, “When you understand the truth, the truth will make you free” ( John 8:32). Before we can go the fi nal step, however, you must get these fi rst truths into your heart. How do you do that? By con-vincing yourself of His truth by reading and repeatedly saying His Word concerning who we are and our rights as Children of God.
Then we are ready for the fi nal step. To be continued…

MeMorial Day
What is Memorial Day?About.com
Many people confuse Memorial Day and Veterans Day. Memorial Day is a day for remembering and honoring military personnel who died in the service of their country, particularly those who died in battle or as a result of wounds sustained in battle. While those who died are also remembered on
Veterans Day, Veterans Day is the day set aside to thank and honor ALL those who served honorably in the military - in wartime or peacetime.
Three years after the Civil War ended, on May 5, 1868, the head of an organization of Union veterans — the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) — established Decoration Day as a time for the nation to
decorate the graves of the war dead with flowers. Maj. Gen. John A. Logan declared that Decoration Day should be observed on May 30. It is believed that date was chosen because flowers would be in
bloom all over the country.
The first large observance was held that year at Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C.
The ceremonies centered around the mourning-draped veranda of the Arlington mansion, once the home of Gen. Robert E. Lee. Various Washington officials, including Gen. and Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant,
presided over the ceremonies. After speeches, children from the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Orphan Home and members of the GAR made their way through the cemetery, strewing flowers on both Union and
Confederate graves, reciting prayers and singing hymns.

they can really commit to it,” states Tim Weigle of the New York State Inte-grated Pest Management Program at CLEREL. Weigle says he expects attendees to include local grape growers looking to diversify or people look-ing at a second career or second income, or even home brewers.
“To grow (hops) eco-nomically so there is a big enough crop… and make money at it is more diffi cult. You still get into the pest problems, such as powdery mildew and downy mildew. Weeds also compete for water and nutrients as well.”
Wiegle and a team of researchers have been growing a small amount of the crop on a three quarter acre lot behind the Portland facility since 2011. He says the production wouldn’t be possible if it were not for the available equipment including a tractor and sprayer.
Hops are vine trellised in the spring, which requires planting poles into the ground to thread string for its growth. Last week, workers were utilizing a scissors lift be-hind the Portland facility to place the string be-tween poles. The fl ower, which resembles a pine-
cone, is harvested in mid to late August and is used to fl avor beer, giving it its distinct bitterness.
Wiegle says that micro-breweries across New York and the Northeast are looking at using as much of the locally-grown hops as the result of new legislation re-quiring 20% of all their brewed product- includ-ing hops, malting bar-leys, specialty grains and honey to be produced in New York State. That percentage will increase to 80% in years to come, says Wiegle for anyone using a farm brewery label.
Of the industry’s future, he adds, “I think we are going to see growth with growers forming a cooperative. Growers are going to have to work together with microbrew-eries.”
The conference, which includes fi ve speak-ers covering topics in hops production will take place both in the classroom at CLEREL, and include hands-on learning in the hops yard behind the facility.

10 CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, MAY 24, 2013
By Jennifer PulverContributing Writer
This week the Regional Wanderer called on an unlikely fellow wanderer to highlight a great group destination. We interviewed Chuck Allesi, who is part of a group that call them-selves the ‘Tin Cup Group.’ The group of twelve men formed 13 years ago and their one goal was an awe-some guys golfi ng weekend. Tony Lana, of Buffalo, was the mastermind of the trip and found the destination for their weekend fun in the small town of Ellicottville, N.Y.
Located in the heart of Cattaraugus County the men chose Holiday Valley Resort as their destination in the early years of their annual trip, spending the fi rst three years of their ten-ure trip enjoying the rolling hills of the Holiday Val-
ley golf course. They were lured away from the course and town in the fourth year but revisited in the tenth year. Upon revisiting the area, they found Ellicot-tville to offer not only an amazing golf destination but a lively atmosphere to add to the time they spent on the links.
The Golf
One cannot think of sum-mer in Ellicottville without thinking about golf at Holi-day Valley Resort. The 18-hole course called Holiday Valley’s Double Black Dia-mond Course went through a major renovation in June, 2008. The Tin Cup Group came back to golf and stay in 2009 and thoroughly en-joyed the experience which has kept them returning since then.
Holiday Valley’s President and General Manager, Dennis Eshbaugh stated, “Holiday Valley has the
reputation as the fi nest ski resort in the region. With this (renovated) course, we want to be able to say we’re the fi nest year ‘round resort in the region!” The men in the group wholeheartedly agree with this statement, fi nding the course challeng-ing and entertaining to play as they golf 27 holes on the Saturday of their trip and another 18 on Sunday!
The original nine holes, designed by golf course architect Russ Tryon, opened in 1962. The sec-ond nine, also designed by Tryon, opened in 1987. In 2008, the renovation was completed by golf course architect and construction manager, Paul Albanese of Albanese and Lutzke Inc., chosen for his fresh, innovative ideas and his experience at creating suc-cessful projects throughout the country. Drawing on the association with the ski resort, Albanese suggested naming the new course the “Double Black Diamond”. Albanese added many new tees, new bunkers (includ-ing several challenging sod wall bunkers), moved and improved ponds and, in general, made the course more interesting, more fun and more playable.
Now each hole has up to four tees to allow players to enjoy the course according to their individual abili-ties. Beginners and junior golfers can use the shorter tees and low handicappers can challenge themselves
with the longer Double Black Diamond tees. This improvement has greatly aided in the pace of play. Allesi found this to be true and commented, “Our group likes how playable the course is. We found that everyone in our twelve-per-son group found challenges at the new course and that’s why we keep going back.”
Staying On
The Tin Cup group could assemble in Ellicottville, play the course, and return home the same day, but in true “wanderer” fash-ion, they stay over for the weekend. Overall, they fi nd the trip more relaxing and enjoyable because of the stay. Their accommoda-tions choice, The Tamarack Club, is also located at Holiday Valley Resort. It is Holiday Valley’s new-est four star slope-side and course-side condominium/hotel.
The Tamarack Club con-struction was completed in December, 2009. Rental units range in size from standard hotel rooms to one, two and three bed-room condominiums. The majority of the rooms are one and two bedroom “lockout” confi gurations, which is perfect for a group the size of the Tin Cup. The accommodations offer a large central living space with the “lock out” rooms centered around the large living and full kitchen area. For the guys in the Tin Cup this is perfect, as some don’t mind sharing rooms with other members but others prefer single rooms and more privacy. The interiors are professionally designed and fully furnished with full kitchens fi tted with high end fi nishes. They also like the on-site dining and bar option of the John Har-vard’s Brew House which
I’m told features an impres-sive array of regional, local and brewed on-site beers. After all, what tastes better during a “competitive” golf game with your buddies than an ice cold brew!
They fi nd all the amenities they want at The Tamarack condos and after a long day of golf they can gather in the living room area before they head into the town of Ellicottville to enjoy dining and entertainment for the evening.
All that is eclectic and fun
Another highlight of the trip for the group and one that I can attest to as well is the dining and nightlife Ellicottville offers. Steeped in tradition, the Tin Cup group chooses Dina’s Restaurant as their dinner location most years. The restaurant features excel-lent dining with a full menu of delicious appetizers, steaks and seafood. With a group of 12, the Tin Cup group fi nds once again their choice in Dina’s offers something for every mem-ber to enjoy. They particu-larly like the “loft” area at Dina’s which has a unique atmosphere upstairs and larger seating areas great for larger groups.
After a satisfying meal the group will often check out Balloon Restaurant and Nightclub and/or The Gin Mill. Chuck Allesi shared that both often feature live entertainment and a great atmosphere to cap off their evenings.
‘Balloons’ is the spot to meet up on the weekends for great live music from the most popular bands in Western New York. When live entertainment is not booked at the venue, Bal-loons is a popular place to dance the night away with
your friends and family.
The Gin Mill, another fa-vorite haunt of the group, is a full service, family owned bar and restaurant. They offer Ellicottville’s largest selection of draught beer: with 24 unique varieties of domestic, imported and craft brews. Again, when a live band isn’t sched-uled, the H.D. televisions in every corner of the bar provide a fantastic venue to catch a baseball game or other sporting event.
Not on the “guys radar”
As the female narrator of the Tin Cup’s guys’ golf trip, I felt compelled to add to their story an aspect of Ellicottville from a ladies perspective --and of course that is the shopping!
Ellicottville offers a won-derful selection of bou-tiques and shops where we ladies can fi nd the perfect something to hang in our closets, on a wall or point out to friends as our latest “discovery.” The stores are located within walking dis-tance of each other which is oh-so-convenient for a little spending spree. I would be hard-pressed to identify a favorite, as every time I visit I fi nd things I love at many stores, but I recommend checking out the following shops:
Red Door Ski Shop-offering sports apparel and Ellicottville gifts
Rustic Blues-offering neat hickory & barnwood fur-niture
Watson’s Chocolates- I need not say more than “chocolates”
Gado-Gado- offers beauti-ful silver & beaded jewelry (and lots more)
Nouriche- a rather new store but fi lled with amaz-ing cute fi nds
Kazoo II –a favorite for toys and gifts
Ellicottville is a gem in our region and well worth the time spent on an extended “wander”. It offers such a great vibe and lots to enjoy and do. With many thanks to Chuck Allesi for sharing his annual trip memories and recommendations, I have to say that his shared experience may indeed get me into a golf lesson or two so that my next trip to Ellicottville can include a golfers paradise.

Roughly 1,500 students, including the largest senior class in SUNY Fredonia’s history, crossed the Steele Hall Arena stage today, receiving congratulations from President Virginia S. Horvath as they were con-ferred with degrees during the 186th annual Com-mencement ceremony.
Bachelor’s and master’s degree recipients, as well as those earning advanced certificates, were honored at two nearly identical ceremonies, at 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. In all, 1,355 under-graduates and 167 gradu-ate students and advanced certificate recipients were eligible to participate.
Dr. Horvath presided over her first Commencement ceremony in her new role, joined by a platform party which included her fellow members of the University Cabinet, members of the College Council, Senior Class President Meagan Allers, and other campus and community dignitar-ies. She congratulated all of the graduates and families on their various achieve-ments.
“Whether you came here from around New York or around the world, Fredonia has been, I hope, a place of welcome and challenge,” Dr. Horvath said. “In your studies and your friend-ships, your explorations and your successes, you have pushed yourself and learned.
“I share a sense of pride with these students’ ac-complishments, as this Commencement marks the end of my first academic year as SUNY Fredonia’s President,” she would later add. “I’m honored to celebrate with you and to confer these degrees and
advanced certificates.”
In addition, the campus welcomed U.S. Represen-tative Brian Higgins as its keynote speaker at both ceremonies. Congress-man Higgins is a fifth-term member of the U.S. House of Representatives, serving citizens of New York’s 26th Congressional District, including por-tions of Erie and Niagara counties. Until recently, Congressman Higgins’ district also encompassed Chautauqua County. The Congressman’s son, John, was among the morning graduates, receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Music Industry.
“When I was first elected to Congress in 2005 and I first walked through the doors of this campus, I felt very much at home here, just as I do today,” Con-gressman Higgins said.
He began by joking with the audience that he was thrilled when he was asked to speak, not only due to the honor it represented, but also because it ensured that his son would have to graduate on time.
He quickly switched tones to one of seriousness, imploring the graduates to never lose sight of three traits: love, hope and faith. Love, he said, was some-what obvious, as it was clearly present in the room. Hope, he said, was repre-sented in the graduates.
“In you, the Class of 2013, we have hope,” he explained. “You see, God created the world, but he didn’t finish it. That’s up to you.”
For faith, he shared the stories of three people: New York City Fire Chaplain Father Mychal Judge, the first certified fatality in the terrorist attacks of Sept.
11, 2001; John Granville, a South Buffalo-born U.S. diplomat who was assas-sinated by terrorists in 2008 while helping the people of South Sudan prepare for the country’s first elections en route to its 2011 independence; and Bernadette Nolan, the mother of a quadriplegic son, whose tireless commu-nication efforts, combined with cutting-edge medical advancements, gave the world Christopher Nolan, the famous Irish poet and author.
“These stories teach us that we all need each other,” he concluded. “Before we can have faith in the future, we need to have faith in one another.”
Ms. Allers, a Williamsville, N.Y., native who received a Bachelor of Science in Edu-cation degree with a major in Childhood Education – Mathematics, Magna Cum Laude, also addressed the attendees. She began by asking her classmates to think back to when they were applying to colleges.
“I know while I was writ-ing my entrance essay, I hoped I would have a great college experience, but the past years have exceeded my expectations,” she said. “I really believe that, while we have learned a lot in the classroom, we have learned just as much from our experiences outside of it. After all – that’s why we chose Fredonia, be-cause that’s what separates it from so many other schools.”
She went on to thank the faculty, staff and adminis-trators for getting to know her and her fellow students, for going above their job requirements to attend their events, advise their groups and answer their late-night emails.
“Thank you for making
Fredonia our home away from home,” she added.
The Honorable Frank Pagano, speaking as Chair on behalf of the College Council, added his well wishes.
“To the Class of 2013, I extend our congratulations to you, your families, and your instructors,” he said. “Today is dedicated to you. This college has helped you develop the tools to guide you through a successful life. In doing so, we call on you to build a better society for us all.”
Among the other high-lights, Lauren E. Smith of Hamburg, N.Y., received the Lanford Presidential Prize from the Oscar and Esther Lanford Endow-ment of the Fredonia College Foundation during the morning ceremony. Ms. Smith was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Communi-cation Disorders and Sci-ences, Summa Cum Laude.
The National Anthem was performed at both cer-
emonies by senior Deanna Jelardi, who received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Musical Theatre, Summa Cum Laude. Stu-dent musical performance groups included the Fredo-nia Wind Ensemble, under the direction of Dr. Paula Holcomb; the Fredonia Concert Band, under the direction of Carl Mazzio; and the Fredonia Women’s Choir, under the direction of Dr. Barbara Brinson.
Faculty Marshals for the morning Commencement ceremony were: Dr. Clara Beier, who will be retiring this year from the Depart-ment of Language, Leader-ship and Learning in the College of Education, and Lecturer Emeritus Jean Harper of the Department of Mathematical Sciences. Professor Emeritus Terry Mosher of the Department of English and Associate Professor Jane Jackson of the Department of Com-munication were the after-noon Marshals.
In addition, Student Mar-shals were selected for their
academic performance and service to campus and were recognized by Presi-dent Horvath during the ceremonies. Marshals dur-ing the morning ceremony were Mark Friesen, Ma-ria Hens, Jessica Maio-rana and Anna Riley, and SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence re-cipients Hannah Delansky and Maxwell DeNies. Also recognized in the morning was additional Chancel-lor’s Award recipient Sarah Ficarro. The afternoon marshals were Anna Alva-rado, Lisa Carlson, Derek Chazen, Alexander Ives, Deanna Jelardi and SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Student Excellence recipi-ent Rachael Coccia.
The ceremonial Mace Bearer was Dr. Alan G. LaFlamme of the Depart-ment of Sociology, An-thropology, Social Work and Criminal Justice, who remains the campus’ most senior faculty member, in terms of years of service.

As a sixth-generation grape grower, winery starter, manager and self-taught vintner, you could characterize Woodbury Vineyard’s Phil Hazlitt as a ‘ jack of all things wine.’ Hazlitt is also involved in directing the renovations and grounds as well as the operations at Woodbury.
But none of those titles would describe all that encompasses his charge at the winery, which opened in 1979 and is now in the midst of modernizing itself to meet the demands of an ever-growing wine-loving public.
“I’m not just a winemaker, I’m also a winery opera-tor,” says Hazlitt, whose of-ficial title is winery consul-tant. Hazlitt is repairing a mower on this day and on a former visit, his colleague Maria Pizzino, makes note of the new countertops he’s crafted as part of the win-ery’s continued upgrades.
When asked if he is a “ jack of all trades,” he responds, “well, I’m a farmer, so if you’re a farmer, you can do anything.”
Woodbury’s twenty wines, many of them medal winners are all made by Hazlitt. Spring blending and bottling is currently underway, which raises the question, how does he have the time to do it all?
According to Hazlitt, his multi-purposed role is typi-cal of smaller wineries. “If
you are a winemaker or winery owner, (part of the job) is agriculture, picking, processing and equipment purchasing. Then you’ve got to market it as well.”
All roles that he is com-fortable with, which is not surprising when you consider his grape grow-ing pedigree. On Seneca Lake near Watkins Glen, Hazlitt’s family grew fresh fruits and later grapes for Taylor Wine Company and other smaller Finger Lakes Wineries. After the family split the 500-acre farm, his father used his portion to start a winery.
“My father never learned the wine-making trade. At the time, I was a carpenter building houses. When the winery started in ’84, I was a couple years out of col-lege and helped him (start) and just kept doing it.”
“We learned by doing. I took short courses, and learned from other wine-makers, starting small.” Today, Hazlitt says the winery, which bares the family name, recently purchased Widmer Win-ery, which is a six million gallon facility.
His experience also in-cludes the role of wine-maker at a Finger Lakes Winery Swedish Hill, then as a general manager and winemaker at Heron Hill. “I also managed a vine-yard, Château Lafayette Reneau for a year.” From there, he went on to help establish Atwater Winery, which was an older winery formerly called Rolling
Vineyards, and ran that for three to four years.
“The Best Wine is The Wine You LikeTM”
When deciding how much and which wines to make, Hazlitt’s market research is simple: talk to your custom-ers and see what they like. “Instead of making wine in a tunnel using chemistry or your personal taste, you get a better idea of what people like to drink, so I bring that information back to my
winemaking.”
Hazlitt says when he wel-comes people to the winery, he typically asks them which type of wine they like. “If you pour Char-donnay and look at their expression when they drink it and if it says ‘I don’t like Chardonnay,’ then you go to Riesling and if they smile a little bit more, then you know what they like best.”
Using that customer based
information, Hazlitt says the winery makes 20 differ-ent types of wines, which usually covers all tastes and is in keeping with their motto, “the best wine is the wine you like TM.” Some the varieties include the “Foxy Series” which are blends made with the na-tive Catawba and Concord grapes, as well as Niagara, Diamond and Fredonia. The winemaker also fer-ments other fruit juices,
such as cranberry, rasp-berry, cherry, and peach, to produce Woodbury’s famous “Fruit Series”. Woodbury’s CheraZzTM is their newest blend, which is a decadent chocolate fruit wine.
“If you like dry, we cur-rently have Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Gewürztramin-er, Cabernet Franc, and Champagne is soon to be released.” Sweet wine drinkers might like to try Woodbury’s Foxy or Fruit Wines. For those whose taste falls somewhere in between, there’s the Sea-port Series, Cayuga White, Vidal Blanc or Riesling.
Hazlitt invites the public to visit and try the new generation of Woodbury wines. “We’ve been here since 1979; we are mod-ernizing and updating our winery.” Planned renova-tions include an outdoor patio and grill.
Wine tasting, wine and cheese pairing and music are all part of the summer of 2013 events at Wood-bury, and Hazlitt welcomes visitors to “come and enjoy a relaxing and pleasant experience at our winery.”

Author Jennifer Phillips Russo is holding an artwork contest for her second book of “The Dragon Birth-mark” series. This challenge
promotes visual literacy and confi dence, as well as provides student artists with the opportunity to have their personal artwork published at no cost to them, if chosen.
The contest offi cially opened March 17 of this year. “The
Dragon Birth-mark” follows the story of an 11-year-old boy’s journey to self-identity through a fan-tastic adven-ture, speckled with legend and lore, and offering a few great lessons and themes throughout the story.
“‘The Dragon Birthmark: World in the Shadows’ is an entertain-
ing, thought-provoking book that takes the reader into the world of imagination and fantasy through the eyes of an 11-year-old boy,” said Amy Piper, Fredonia El-ementary School Principal.
Russo, a local resident of Fredonia, is in the process of completing the sequel to “The Dragon Birthmark.” With an insatiable desire to spark imagination and cre-ativity in her readers, she has
created the art contest for students across the state and nation. This contest provides the opportunity to sketch characters or scenes from the second book, which will be featured and published in the book if chosen as a winner. All middle and high school students are eligible to enter the contest.
Students will be able to submit their artwork pieces through the novel’s web-
site. An online gallery is also available through the website, which gives con-testants the chance to see examples of artwork that other students have created and submitted. A descrip-tion of the characters to be sketched can be found at www.TheDragonBirthmark.com, as well as detailed rules and entry guidelines for this free contest.

When one purchases a new notebook or desktop computer today, it al-most always comes with a combination DVD player and burner.The concept of burning has been around for over fi fteen years and it has been used for transfer-ring large fi les and media onto an optical disc.
The fi rst optical disc that consumers would trans-fer or burn fi les to was a CDROM. CDROMs were read only discs and they could hold up to 650 megabytes of storage or 74 minutes of audio. These discs were quite popular for burning of music. After the downloaded music was burned to CDROM,
people could play the CDROM in their home stereo system. CDROMS were convenient but their popularity gave way to the iPod and other digital music players. This would allow people to copy music to a much larger storage device.
As people became accus-tomed to burning music, the next natural desire was to have the ability to burn video. People began burn-ing video onto CDROM. This allowed for the burn-ing of 83 minutes of video to disc and those discs were referred to as VCDs. VCDs had some limitations, such as there was no chaptering and the format was incom-patible with some optical drives and devices.
DVDs became the next standard disc that was very popular because they held 4.7 gigabytes of informa-tion, which allowed for chaptering of a full two-hour movie. DVDs also allowed for some interac-tivity, as people could use a remote or a mouse to pick menus and navigate through the DVD. DVDs have high quality video and can deliver a resolu-tion of 720 x 480. This resolution preserves the integrity of the original
movie camera’s shots and angles. DVD also supports 5.1 stereo sound and can hold more audio than a CDROM. Some longer movies are produced on a Dual Layer DVD. This DVD held 8.5 gigabytes.
The most recent disc technology is Blu-Ray. Blu-Ray technology uses a violet or blue laser to read and write data to the disc. In contrast, the CDROM and DVD technology uses red or green to read and write data. This change in color of the laser is a result of the different wavelengths in which the information is read and written. Blu-Ray discs hold up to 25 giga-bytes on a single layer with a dual layer disc holding up to 50 gigabytes. Blu-Rays also have an advantage over DVDs because they can display high defi nition movies with a 1080p reso-lution. Blu-Ray discs are also used in the creation of games for Playstation 3.
Disc technology is ever changing, some people speculate whether discs will be necessary in the future since movies can now be downloaded through the Internet or stored on gam-ing systems. We will have to stay tuned!

Over the past seven years we have been focused on analyzing how we perform the work that Chautau-qua County is required to do for our constituents. Each and every time we determine a better, more effi cient, or more effective way to deliver this work we have made the necessary changes to capitalize on these improvements.
The results of these efforts have been shown in our year-end audit for 2012. Through the efforts of all our Departments we have been able to produce a $5.8 million surplus for the general fund, instead of the signifi cant defi cit projected in 2011.
During 2012, we com-
pleted the merger of the Departments of Health and Social Services into one Department with Christine Schuyler as its leader. This consolidation enabled us to reallocate staff, improve our claiming process, realign the management of the increasing caseload, and most signifi cantly continue our focus on our front end detection system. This system assures that only those who qualify for benefi ts are permitted to sign up for benefi ts. New York State recently sent out a formal accounting proving what we have been saving taxpayers millions of dollars. The notice from NYS confi rmed that our work avoided over $6 mil-lion of benefi ts going to people who did not qualify for these benefi ts. More importantly these efforts by the new Department
of Health and Human Services reduced the local share expenses to taxpayers in Chautauqua County by over $2.7 million.
In addition to the work within our operations, the Department of Health and Human Services took the necessary legal steps to settle a large estate and two lawsuits that increased our revenues for 2012 by $1.2 million.
The Department of Plan-ning and Economic De-velopment and the County of Chautauqua Industrial Development Agency also completed the sale of the Chadwick Bay Industrial site speck building. This sale resulted in over $1.8 million of increased income for the County.
Albany continued to work to catch up on fi nishing their year-end accounting
for programs we deliver for them and they released two years of payments instead of one for past years of Child Welfare services add-ing $1.3 million in revenue to our 2012 cycle.
We continued to refi ne our accounting process and accrual of revenues and expenses and increased the amount of revenue we could claim within 2012 by $1.5 million.
While the process of the economic recovery from the recession has been slow, in 2012 we saw a $200,000 increase in sales tax, $240,000 in mortgage tax, and a reduction in Com-munity College charge back expenses by $910,000. In addition our methane to energy plant produced more electricity for a higher price resulting in an additional $280,000 of revenue above the amount
budgeted.
Through the efforts of all of our Departments we have been able to take what was projected to be a defi cit for County operations and realize a $5.8 million surplus for the general fund for 2012. This surplus will enable us to make the required investments in our infrastructure with exist-ing capital, as opposed to borrowing and paying the interest charges on those debts, and at the same time avoid dramatic tax increases.
Hard work by your County team focused on delivering the best services for the best costs has resulted in Chau-tauqua County fi nances ending 2012 in the black and positioned to continue to deliver for the people of Chautauqua County in 2013 and beyond.

The New York State Public High School Athletic Association base-ball and softball playoffs began this week with a number of teams already making an early splash.
On the fl ip side, some high school athletes saw their seasons prematurely end with a fi rst-round loss while some don’t start until this week.
Here’s a team-by-team break-down of what’s happened so far in Chautauqua County:
Brocton BulldogsNo. 4 Brocton came out of the chute quickly and downed No. 5 Ripley, 8-3, Wednesday in the Class D quarterfi nals. Starter Ryan Johnson needed just fi ve pitches to escape the fi rst inning and the Bulldogs tacked on a run in the bottom of the frame. Broc-ton will host Sherman on Friday.
The No. 3 Lady Bulldogs won’t play their fi rst game until Friday, when they host No. 4 Ripley.
Cassadaga Valley CougarsSenior pitcher Kenny Oakes led No. 5 Cassadaga Valley past No. 12 Barker, 3-1, Monday in their
pre-quarterfi nal Class C game. Oakes spun a complete game three-hitter to pace the Cougars.
The No. 2 Cassadaga Valley Lady Cougars will host a Class C quarterfi nal game against No. 7 Maple Grove on Friday.
Chautauqua Lake ThunderbirdsThe No. 16 Thunderbirds pulled off the biggest conceivable upset when they knocked off No. 1 Middle College, 19-0, in their opening Class C game. Braydyn Wappat struck out eight while allowing just three hits.
The No. 5 Lady Thunderbirds took care of business against No.
12 Salamanca to the tune of 12-1. They earned a matchup with No. 4 Portville in the quarterfi nals.
Clymer PiratesThe top-seeded Pirates ran into the No. 9 Sherman Wildcats, a team that’s getting hot at the right time, and dropped a 3-2 decision in the Class D quarterfi -nals. The Pirates pushed runners to scoring position in both the sixth and seventh innings but were unable to break through.
Like the rest of Class D softball, the No. 7 Lady Pirates won’t start until Friday when they will travel to take on No. 2 North Collins.

The Section 6 State Qualifi er for boys high school golf is held at one of the most diffi cult courses in West-ern New York — Diamond Hawk Golf Course in Cheektowaga.
That didn’t stop either Fredo-nia’s Joe Conti, Silver Creek’s Dan Weimer, Maple Grove’s Wil Lockwood or Randolph’s Nolan Ditcher from not only surviving the tricky greens, narrow fairways and hazardous bunkers, but thriv-ing. All four golfers made the cut and will advance to the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Golf Tournament.
Conti fi nished fi fth with a 118, Lockwood was right behind him at 119 while Weimer and Ditcher each shot a 120. Aaron Schauger of Grand Island had the best score of the day at 114.
Forestville golf coach Jack Dug-an had nothing but rave reviews for Weimer.
“Danny isn’t just a great golfer but he’s a great kid,” Dugan said. “He gives my guys tips all the time. That’s just the type of kid he is. It works nicely with our
kids up (at Tri-County Country Club) with Silver Creek. The guys really look up to Danny.”
The qualifi er is a grind for the high school athletes. Every golfer plays 18 holes, then the top 20 go on to play nine more. After the last nine holes the top eight golfers head to the state tournament. The 27 consecutive holes can take their toll both mentally and physically.
The state championship is held June 1-3 at Cornell University.
Weimer and Lockwood had
golfed together just a few days before when Silver Creek, Maple Grove, Chautauqua Lake and Forestville met at Tri-County for a quad-meet that closed the regular season.
“We still have the three-man tournament left,” Dugan said. “That’s something that the kids really look forward to. We start in March and then before you know it it’s May and we’re done. Luckily a good portion of my team takes part in the junior program at Tri-County so they’re
up there playing golf throughout the season.”
Dugan also credits Tri-Country Country Club — both Silver Creek and Forestville’s home course — with improving the skills of Weimer and others.
“As challenging as Tri-County is,” Dugan added, “it makes them better golfers. I couldn’t ask for a better course. When we play other courses their stroke average decreases and they play with confi dence.”

If you haven’t notice by now, I really like baseball — playing baseball, watching baseball and talking baseball.
Luckily I have a medium to talk about baseball to my heart’s content. So if you aren’t a fan of Major League Baseball, I apolo-gize, but hopefully you read my commentaries anyway.
Last week, I wrote about how horribly wrong I was with my pre-season predictions as far as MLB standings go. This week, still at roughly the 25 percent mark of the season, I’d like to hand out some premature awards.
American League Most Valuable Player: Miguel Ca-brera, Detroit Tigers — This is probably the easiest decision on this list. Cabrera, who won the prestigious Triple Crown last season, is actually having a better season at the plate than in 2012. His batting average/on-base percentage/slugging percentage line of .373/.443/.598 is simply astounding. The Tigers have dis-appointed as a team, but they’ve done that for the last two years early in the season, so I’m not sur-prised. Apologies to: Evan Longo-ria, Tampa Bay Rays; Robinson Cano, New York Yankees; Carlos Santana, Cleveland Indians; Dustin Pedroia, Boston Red Sox.
American League Cy Young: Clay Buchholz, Boston Red Sox — Although he’s winless in his last three starts, Buchholz has been key to the Red Sox’s turnaround in 2013. He’s cur-rently 6-0 with a 1.78 ERA with 69 strikeouts in 65.2 innings. He made headlines when broadcast-ers for the Toronto Blue Jays ac-cused him of throwing a spitball, but Buchholz should continue to make headlines with his dominant pitching. Apologies to: Felix Her-nandez, Seattle Mariners; Hisashi Iwakuma, Seattle Mariners.
American League Rookie of the Year: Conor Gillaspie, Chicago White Sox — Noth-ing against Gillaspie, who is en-joying a solid start to his career, but in a normal year there’s no way he’d be in the conversation.

2 CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, MAY 24, 2013
Dunkirk MaraudersNo. 10 Dunkirk nearly pulled off an upset in its pre-quarterfi nal contest with No. 7 Alden, but lost when the Bulldogs’ Matt Shields connected on a walk-off RBI single. Jayvee call-up Zach Crandall con-nected on a double in his fi rst varsity playoff game.
The No. 4 Lady Marauders ran into a hot-hitting No. 2 Newfane team and fell, 10-3 in Section 6 Class B-1 quarterfi nal action. Kelsey Drummond smacked a triple while Lacey Clark clubbed a home run, but it wasn’t enough to overcome Newfane’s outburst.

The No. 9 Lady Red Raiders didn’t fare any better, falling 10-2 to No. 8 Orchard Park. A fi ve-run third inning was Jame-stown’s undoing as it built a lead the Lady Red Raiders couldn’t overcome.
Maple Grove Red DragonsNo. 7 Maple Grove walked off with a 4-3 win over No. 10 Olmsted to keep their playoff drive alive. The Red Dragons benefi ted from three wild pitches in the fi rst inning to plate three runs and then scored in the bottom of the sev-enth on a throwing error.

Silver Creek Black KnightsThe No. 15 Black Knights nearly pulled off a massive upset when they left the bases loaded in the top of the seventh in their 6-4 loss to No. 2 Leonardo da Vinci, Monday in Class C action.
On the softball fi eld, Silver Creek was upended by Port-ville, 11-4, to end its season.

On Wednesday, the Wolverines took it to rival Frewsburg, 12-3, to knock out the No. 6 seed and advance to the semifi nals. Westfi eld will play No. 2 Leonardo da Vinci on Friday in Buffalo.
The No. 9 Lady Wolverines fell victim to No. 8 Allegany-Limestone, 8-7, in their Class C quarterfi nal contest.

The special black bass season is in effect on Lake Erie and its tributar-ies up to the fi rst impassible barrier only. Anglers can use natural/live bait and keep one bass per day, with a minimum size of 20 inches during the special bass season. Bass fi shing on all other waters in Western New York is by catch and release only with artifi cial lures only until the third Saturday in June. Tiger muskellunge season also opens May 4 on the in-land waters where they occur. Tiger muskellunge season remains closed on Lake Erie, Niagara River and Lake Ontario until the third Satur-day in June.
Lake ErieWindy weather kept anglers off Lake Erie much of the week, however with only light winds in the forecast it looks like a great weekend to get out. All of the major Lake Erie boat launches (including Sturgeon Point) are now open. The smallmouth bass bite should still be going strong in the harbors and around nearshore reef areas. Anglers have seen good bass action in Black Rock Canal, Buffalo Harbor, Dunkirk Harbor and Barcelona Harbor. Anglers have also enjoyed good catches of beefy bass around nearshore reef and rocky areas such as Seneca Shoal, Myers Reef, Evans Bar and Van Buren Bay/Reef. However, many smaller reefs, rock piles and humps along the Erie shoreline also hold good numbers of bass. Tube jigs, jigs with twister tails, deep diving stickbaits, live minnows and crayfi sh are good smallmouth bass baits.
Walleye anglers are picking up a fi sh or two per outing, but the nighttime walleye bonanza in the nearshore spawning areas has yet to start. Nearshore water temperatures are hovering at 50 degrees, which is still slightly cool. Look for action to pick-up when temperatures climb to 53-55 degrees.When targeting walleye at night, trolling with shallow diving stickbaits or worm harnesses in as shallow as 6 feet of water over rocky/rubble areas is a good bet. Good ear-ly season locations (from west to east) include Shorehaven Reef, Bournes Beach, Green Hills, Van Buren Bay,
Evans Bar, off Hoak's Restaurant (Hamburg) and near the mouth of Smokes Creek.
Previously, cooperative yellow perch schools were tough to locate. Perch are likely now post-spawn and ready to feed. Good starting points for perch anglers is in 45-55 feet of water from Cattaraugus Creek to northeast of Sturgeon Point. Live emerald shiners fi shed just off the bottom can't be beat.
Lake Erie TributariesCattaraugus Creek is in prime con-dition (fl owing at about 330 cubic feet per second), while the other tributaries are in decent shape with moderate to lower fl ows. Smallmouth bass are providing good action in the lower sections of the tributar-ies. Anglers can target smallmouth bass on Cattaraugus Creek from mid-Seneca Reservation down to the mouth (need fi shing license issued by Seneca Nation to fi sh on Seneca lands); on Chautauqua, Canadaway and Eighteemile Creeks from the thruway down to the mouths; and below the confl uence of Buffalo and Cayuga Creeks (Harlem Road ac-cess). Channel catfi sh have moved into the lower sections of the tributar-ies, settling into deeper holes. Fish-ing at night with nightcrawlers, raw shrimp, chicken livers or cut bait on the bottom could have you hooked into a huge catfi sh. The lower section of Cattaraugus Creek and near the mouth of Eighteenmile Creek are top locations. Shore anglers can also target catfi sh along the Lake Erie shoreline on calm nights, especially near stream inlets.
Upper Niagara RiverAnglers have reported some good yellow perch and white perch catches from Buffalo waterfront sites. Just below the Black Rock lock anglers are catching perch from boats and from the northern tip of Squaw Is-land. Boat and shore anglers also see a nice mix of perch near the Ontario Street boat launch and the along the bay just down river of the launch. Emerald shiners are the top bait. Anglers are catching some walleye at Broderick Park and along the wall running north. Minnows fi shed near the bottom have worked well. The harbors, marinas and inlets are also good spots to target panfi sh and largemouth bass. Sunfi sh and yel-
low perch can be taken on emerald shiners and worms. Bass fi shing is by catch and release only, artifi cial lures only in the Niagara River (North of Peace Bridge).
Chautauqua LakeThe crappie bite has been tapering off, but anglers are still picking up some in the sheltered bays on min-nows or small jigs (1/32 oz.) with a minnow. There has not been much walleye chatter since the opener. Chautauqua anglers traditionally target early season walleye at night. Boaters can troll outside weed edges with stickbaits and worm harnesses, or drift and work jigs with night-crawlers or leeches. Shore anglers can do well by casting stickbaits, especially in areas near stream inlets. Largemouth and smallmouth bass are available inside 10 feet of water. As a reminder, fi shing for black bass in Chautauqua Lake is by catch and release only, artifi cial lures only, until the third Saturday in June.
Inland Trout StreamsWestern New York's inland trout streams are in great shape with moderate fl ows. Plenty of bugs are hatching now, including sulphurs, March browns and caddisfl ies. Fly anglers do well with imitation dry fl ies or sub-surface with nymphs such as stonefl ies, hares ear, pheasant tails and caddisfl ies. Productive offerings for spinning anglers include worms, salted minnows and small inline spinners. If you are a catch-and-release angler and use spinners, it is good practice to outfi t your spin-ners with a single hook rather than a treble hook.
Western New York anglers have a variety of Wild Trout Streams and Stocked Trout Streams to choose from. In addition, Public Fishing Rights Maps are available for many of the area's best trout streams.
Spring Trout StockingThe DEC has stocked all of western New York's trout stocking waters with at least their fi rst stocking incre-ment. Throughout the month of May, hatchery staff will stock select waters with additional trout. Anglers can call the Randolph Fish Hatch-ery Fish Stocking Hotline at (716) 358-4950 for stocking updates. For complete lists of stocked waters and numbers of trout stocked, check the 2013 Spring Trout Stocking pages.

In signing his contract on Monday, Buffalo Bills rookie second-round draft pick Robert Woods could start focusing on the next step of his career: Earn-ing a regular role among the team's young group of receivers.
''I feel very fortunate and blessed, but I've still got to play football,'' Woods said. ''I'm just trying to contrib-ute to this team. (The con-tract) is my agent's work. My job is to play football.''
The four-year contract was agreed to late Sunday night, and Woods signed it shortly after the Bills opened their second week of voluntary minicamps.
Selected 41st overall out of Southern California last month, Woods was regard-ed as the most polished among the draft-eligible receiver prospects fol-lowing a solid three-year college career.
Woods set a school record with 252 career catches in 38 games in becoming Matt Barkley's favorite target.
Woods fi nished with 2,930 yards receiving and 32 touchdowns. His best sea-son came in his sophomore year in 2011, when he had 111 catches for 1,292 yards and 15 touchdowns.
With little experienced depth at receiver, the Bills are counting on Woods to compete for a starting job opposite Stevie Johnson.
Woods has not looked out of place during practice.
On Monday, he broke up the left sideline before making a sharp cut to fi nd himself wide open in making a catch over the middle.
The Bills are in the midst of rebuilding their group of receivers under new coach Doug Marrone.
They drafted Texas speed-ster Marquise Goodwin in the third round. Following the draft, Buffalo signed
undrafted rookie Da'Rick Rogers. Though Rogers was projected as a top-10 receiver prospect, he was overlooked in the draft because of a troubled col-lege career split between Tennessee and Tennessee Tech.
Buffalo has reached deals with seven of its eight draft picks. Only its fi rst-round selection, quarterback EJ Manuel, is unsigned.
In separate news, vet-eran free agent special teams star Montell Owens watched practice from the sideline four days after being released by Jackson-ville.
Marrone said the Bills were interested in sign-ing Owens because he would be a solid addition to what's become a young special teams unit.
Owens, who can also play running back, is a seven-year NFL veteran and a two-time Pro Bowl selec-tion as a special teams player. In 104 career games, he set the Jaguars'
franchise record with 118 special teams tackles.
Top receiver Stevie John-son resumed practicing for the fi rst time since hurting his back during the team's fi rst spring minicamp ses-sion last month.
Johnson says he was lim-ited to practicing indi-vidual drills on Tuesday, during a session closed to media not employed by the team. Calling the injury a ''strain,'' Johnson says he felt some soreness. He says he is ahead of the initial prognosis of needing six to eight weeks to recover.
The session marked the fi rst time Johnson has worked in a practice set-ting with Buffalo's new quarterbacks: veteran free-agent addition Kevin Kolb, and rookie fi rst-round pick EJ Manuel.
Johnson says it's too early to determine whether he'll be cleared to practice fully in time for a three-day mandatory minicamp that opens June 11.
Bills sign Woods; Johnson returns to practice
CHAUTAUQUA STARFRIDAY, MAY 24, 2013 3
By Stefan GestwickiStar Sports Editor
My golfer’s diary will follow my golf outing(s) for the week. I’ll look at how course conditions, weather, equipment, playing partners, etc. affect the game we love. Please keep in mind that I only started golfi ng last year, so yes, my scores are hardly that of a scratch golfer. But that’s what makes golf great: You don’t have to be a zero handicap to enjoy the game.
Last week I missed my fi rst career eagle by about 18 inches. It haunted me for those seven days because I felt like I’d never get that close again. After all, I only made four birdies all of last season.
Well, like in most things, I was dead wrong. Play-ing on a hot afternoon at the beautiful Cassadaga Country Club on Frisbee Road, I capped off my best round of the year with my fi rst ever eagle.
Hole No. 9 is the lone par 5 at CCC, but it’s a beauty. You hit your tee shot from way up on a hill, but you also have to carry over a fairly wide creek bed that has surely eaten its fair share of golf balls. My buddy Bryan laid up nicely just short of the creek, but I had been driving very well all day and decided to go for it.
Though the ball tailed a little to the right, it cleared the creek by plenty. There’s actually a fairway bunker to the left, so perhaps it was for the best that I ended up to the right.
Anyway, I pulled out a 4-iron for my second shot. I knew I had to give it a little extra so I probably over-swung a little bit and hit it very thin. As I was grumbling about my apparent miss, the ball continued to roll right down the fairway, between the two greenside bunkers and stopped about three feet from the pin.
I’ve never been so nervous on a putt. It was as simple as a putt can be — slightly uphill, but no side-to-side break. It’s a shot I’ve made 50 times when it’s for bogey, but I’ve never had to concentrate so hard on a three-footer. Well obviously I made it, ending my day with a better-than-bogey-golf score of 43.
While it’s hard to top an eagle, another aspect I took out of my time at Cassadaga Country Club was the fact that I had at least a chance for a par putt on each of the fi rst six holes. Granted, I only made one of those putts, but it shows how much my game has improved in a short amount of time that I’m able to get to the green quicker.
The fi rst hole is actually pretty tricky. Another creek runs through the fairway and requires a pretty good poke to clear it. When you’re not entirely loose and warmed up yet, this can be a challenge. I only
made it by about 10 feet while Bryan’s rolled right in, never to be seen again.
A distinguishing aspect of CCC is the amount of bun-kers. Many courses around the area don’t have many and you can easily avoid them, but CCC is challeng-ing in that a duffed chip attempt is probably going to land you in some sand. The plus is that all of the bunkers were in awesome condition, which is a testa-ment to the grounds staff as well as the previous golfers who took the time to rake after they left the area.
My scores of bogey, bogey, bogey, bogey, par, bogey through the fi rst six holes were actually pretty excit-ing. Having only golfed for a little over a year, I’m simply not usually a bogey golfer.
But then No. 7 happened.
If I had to pick a signature hole for Cassadaga Coun-try Club, it would be No. 7. The tee box is way up on top of a hill overlook-ing the entire course and
Cassadaga Lake. The view is unmatched. There is plenty of room to lay up off the tee, but there’s also a relatively large pond that threatens to eat up anything short should you try to drive over. It’s chal-lenging, but it’s so much fun. Usually I can drive the pond, but the tee boxes were the furthest back I’ve ever seen them, so I layed up (yes, I was ashamed, but I didn’t want to jeopardize my good score). It didn’t matter as I just butchered the rest of my shots.
Then there’s No. 8, which has to be my worst hole of any I’ve ever played. It’s a pretty long, uphill par 3. My biggest problem is I don’t know which club to hit off the tee. I can’t get it there with a 4-iron or even a hybrid, but when I use my 3-wood I over hit the green. Perhaps I need to get myself a 5-wood.
The best thing about CCC is that the greens run so true. If you think you see a slight slope, chances are good that your ball is going to break. Although, when you miss a putt, you have no one to blame but yourself.
I should also mention that while Bryan and I only played nine holes, CCC’s holes No. 10-18 do change pretty radically. On No. 11, for instance, the tee box is probably 30 yards to the right of No. 2, which gives you a whole new look at the fairway and the green.
After I closed my round with an eagle, we simply had to go into the club-house and celebrate with an ice-cold adult beverage. I mean, I usually don’t have much to celebrate after golfi ng. At the bar we talked golf with CCC’s golf pro Steve Wintersteen, a man and his wife who had also just fi nished a round and Stacey Wintersteen.
It was the perfect ending to a gorgeous day of golf.

This weekly feature will take a more personal look at one of our area’s fantastic high school coaches. Athletes come and go, but it’s the coaches that re-ally make Chautauqua County sports what they are.
Brianne Hazelton has al-ready made quite an im-pact in her three seasons as varsity softball coach at Forestville. She led the team to a Sectional title with a roster littered with underclassmen in her f irst year before match-ing that feat the following season. A former college softball player at St. Bo-naventure, Hazelton has brought a winning atti-tude to the Lady Hornets as they continue to chase the state title.
Q: What made you want to start coaching?Hazelton: “Softball has always had a special place in my heart. It was there in high school and col-lege. I can cancer when I was 19 and they did all kinds of fundraisers and the NCAA paid for a lot of my medical bills. I al-ways wanted to coach and teach people what I was taught. I wanted to give back to the girls. I just love the game.”
Q: What is your ab-solute favorite thing about coaching?Hazelton: “The games. I’m so competitive. I love game time and especially the winning and the inten-sity of the game. You can see what the players have learned and watch them use it. It’s amazing.”
Q: What have you found to be the hardest part of coaching?
Hazelton: “This year it was hard with the weather. We were in the gym for four or fi ve weeks straight at least. I just love being outside on the fi eld. It’s hard to mix up practices and make it in-teresting for the girls when you’re in the gym for fi ve or six weeks.”
Q: What has been your proudest moment as a coach?Hazelton: “My fi rst year when we won the Sec-tional title. We had lost to Panama twice already that year. We were losing and then winning, it was a very back-and-forth game. They fought for it so hard. I had almost all sophomores. It was the same team I have now. To see them grow so much over the year and then win that game was my favorite moment.”
Q: Has there been any-one that has infl uenced your coaching career?Hazelton: “My coach at Frewsburg, Jon Blanchard, is still coaching. He taught me a lot of strategy. When I call Ryanne (Dugan)’s pitches I think back to what he called for me when I was in high school. Now we’ll talk a lot. We play each other and we have this competitiveness where we kind of taunt each other. I do still ask for advice. I’ll ask ‘what do you think about this?” or ‘what should I have done here?’ and he’ll help me.”
Q: Do you have any personal goals set for the future?Hazelton: “It would be nice to win the state title. I was never able to do that in high school. We made it to states but we lost the fi rst game. That’s something I haven’t done in my life and I’d like to do that.”

Maybe we were spoiled last year with Mike Trout, but this has been a disap-pointing year for rookies so far. That said, Gillaspie is hitting a respectable .283 with three home runs and looks comfortable at the hot corner. Apologies to: Nick Tepish, Texas Rangers.
American League Man-ager of the Year: John Farrell, Boston Red Sox — There are some really nice candidates for this award, but I’ll give it to Farrell for cleaning up the absolute train wreck he inherited. Not only did the Red Sox have no expectations, but they also had all kinds of internal confl ict. Farrell has guided them to a very nice record and they look to be legitimate contenders. Apologies to: Joe Girardi, New York Yankees; Terry Francona, Cleveland Indians; Ron Washington, Texas Rangers.
National League Most Valuable Player: Paul Goldschmidt, Arizona Diamondbacks — Three weeks into the season, no one could have imagined anyone but Atlanta’s Justin Upton being in this spot. Alas, Gold-schmidt has been tearing the cover off the ball while Upton has struggled. The Diamond-backs have surged to fi rst place in the West, largely
because of Goldy’s .333 BA, 12 home runs and 35 RBI. He’s even stolen four bases and plays a solid fi rst base. Apologies to: Upton; Jean Segura, Milwuakee Brewers; Troy Tulowitzki, Colorado Rockies; Shin-Soo Choo, Cincinnati Reds.
National League Cy Young: Shelby Miller, St. Louis Cardinals — Remember when he retired 27 straight batters a few weeks ago? That was awesome. Expect to see a lot more highlights like that from this 22-year old phenom. The young man is now 5-2 with a 1.4 ERA
with a strikeout-to-walk ratio of 57-12. Those are some eye-popping numbers. I’m not entirely confi dent in his ability to continue this success throughout the season, but so far so good for this Cardinals rookie. Apologies to: Matt Harvey, New York Mets; Jordan Zimmerman, Washington Nationals; Patrick Corbin, Arizona Diamondbacks; Clayton Kershaw, Los An-geles Dodgers.
National League Rookie of the Year: Shelby Miller, St. Louis Cardi-nals — Yes, him again. His WHIP (walks and hits per
inning pitched) is below 1.00 at 0.88. That, combined with the above numbers, is what gets guys the Cy Young and ROY honors. The Na-tional League rookies are far stronger than their Ameri-can League counterparts, too. Apologies to: Hyun-Jin Ryu, Los Angeles Dodgers; Evan Gattis, Atlanta Braves; Didi Gregorius.
National League Manag-er of the Year: Clint Hur-dle, Pittsburgh Pirates — I’m hesitant to actually put him on here because I fear the curse of what’s happened to the Pirates the last two seasons. This year, however, the Pirates actually sport a run differential that is as good as their record. He doesn’t make the best tactical decisions, but there’s no denying his impact on a young Buccos roster. Apolo-gies to: Kirk Gibson, Arizona Diamondbacks.
Obviously many — or all — all these awards will change by season’s end. Heck, they’ll prob-ably change in a matter of weeks, but you can’t deny the seasons the preceding players are having.

Fifth-year senior Jake Nowak (Depew/Maryvale) concluded his fi nal season on the Blue Devil baseball team by earning D3base-ball.com Third Team All Region as a utility player.
Nowak proved his versatil-ity by starting games at six different positions this season. He was the start-ing pitcher in Game 2 on Opening Day -- after catching all of Game 1 -- a feat he accomplished twice during the season.
Nowak also saw starts at third base, shortstop, second base and designated hitter.
He posted team-best .377
batting average, good enough for fourth in the SUNYAC, while ranking fi rst in all of Division III as the toughest to strike out -- only once in 77 at bats.
Nowak started 23 games in the fi eld, and came off
the bench fi ve times. He delivered a pinch-hit, walk-off win in the bottom of the seventh in a 4-3 win over Houghton. As a catcher, he did not allow a stolen base all season.
On the mound, he threw
23 innings and posted a 2-1 record with one com-plete game, a 4-3 win over Thomas College.
He fi nished his career with a .317 average (86 for 271), 21 stolen bases and a 3-1 record on the mound.

9) Detroit Tigers 24-19 Miguel Cabrera is actually way ahead of his pace from last year’s Triple Crown numbers.

Right from the start, a horse trained by one not so over-the-hill Hall of Famer and ridden by another took control of the Preakness. The result: a huge upset and the end of any hopes for a Triple Crown attempt at the Belmont Stakes.
Thanks to Oxbow's wire-to-wire win Saturday over Kentucky Derby winner Orb, trainer D. Wayne Lukas and jockey Gary Stevens have them-selves another classic to add to their stellar resumes.
''I get paid to spoil dreams,'' the 77-year-old Lukas said after his record 14th win in a Triple Crown race. ''Unfortunately we go over here and you can't mail 'em in. It's a dif-ferent surface and a different time. You gotta line 'em up and win 'em.''
Stevens ended his retirement in Janu-ary, and won his third Preakness to go along with three victories in the Derby and three in the Belmont.
''At 50 years old, after seven years retirement, it doesn't get any better than this,'' Stevens said. ''This is super, super sweet and it happened for the right guy. All the stars were aligned. It's even more special winning it for Wayne Lukas and his team.''
Lukas put Stevens on his first Triple Crown race winner - when the rider guided the filly Winning Colors to victory in the 1988 Derby. Stevens last won a Triple Crown race in 2001, tak-ing the Belmont aboard Point Given.
''He supported me,'' Stevens said. ''A lot of people were trying to get me off. He was the first guy to call me up and said 'I'm going to have a colt for you. His name is Oxbow.'''
Orb was unable to find his rhythm after starting from the No. 1 post, and never challenged in finishing fourth.
''After we passed the half mile, he had a hard time keeping up and I kind of worried a little bit,'' Orb's jockey Joel Rosario said. ''He just kind of steadied after that. He usually takes you there. He always runs hard, but today he never took off.''
Orb's loss extends the Triple Crown drought to 36 years since Affirmed became the 11th horse to sweep the races in 1978. There had been great
anticipation the sport would get another Triple try just a year after I'll Have Another won the first two races but was scratched the day before the Belmont with a tendon injury.
Lukas won his sixth Preakness to move one behind Robert Wyndham Walden for most wins in the second leg of the Triple Crown.
The victory was a long time com-ing for the dean of trainers. The last Triple Crown race he won was the 2000 Belmont with Commendable. Before that, he was a regular in the winner's circle after classic races. At one point, he ran off six in a row - from the 1994 Preakness through the 1996 Derby. He also was the first to send out five horses in one Derby, and won it with Grindstone in 1996.
The first trainer to gear his operation toward Triple Crown races, Lukas took a run at the coveted prize in 1999 with Charismatic. The unsung 3-year-old won the Derby and Preak-ness, but broke his leg in the stretch of the Belmont while finishing third.
Oxbow, sent off at odds of 15-1, took charge from the start out of the No. 6 post and beat Itsmyluckyday by 1 3/4 lengths. Mylute, with Rosie Napravnik bidding to become the first female to win the Preakness, was third, followed by Orb, Goldencents, Departing, Will Take Charge, Gov-enor Charlie and Titletown Five.
Orb's trainer, Shug McGaughey, so confident in the two weeks leading up to the race, was gracious despite his disappointment.
''It was a great opportunity,'' the Hall of Famer said. ''We were 3-5 and we finished fourth. We'll pack it up and go home. Hats off to Wayne.''
He also recalled a brief conversation with Lukas a few days before the race.
''Just two days ago, he said to me 'We got another one on the agenda,''' Mc-Gaughey said. ''And darn if two days later he didn't get it ... When Wayne wasn't going good, he was still the first guy out on his pony. The guy's a credit to racing. He's always upbeat and optimistic.''
Orb came into the Preakness with a five-race winning streak and many expected him to win easily. But it wasn't to be on an overcast windy day at Pimlico Race Course, where 117,203 fans turned out.
Oxbow went to the lead ahead of Goldencents and opened some daylight into the first turn. Orb, who broke slowly as expected, wound up in a cluster of horses around the turn and into the backstretch.
While Oxbow was cruising along in front, Rosario tried to find room outside but found his path blocked. Orb dropped back to the inside, and perhaps frustrated without any space to run free like he did in the Derby, fell back to seventh and was never a threat in the stretch.
''The pace was slower than I antici-pated,'' McGaughey said. ''I thought maybe they would speed it up a little bit but they didn't. I thought we would close into it but it just wasn't his day. He was just never real com-fortable once he got down in there.''
Oxbow covered the 1 3-16 miles in a slow 1:57.54 and paid $32.80, $12 and $8.80. Itsmyluckyday, 15th in the Derby, returned $7.80 and $5 and Mylute paid $5.20 to show.
Lukas had three of the nine horses in the Preakness, and it was his best Derby finisher who was able to come through. Just like that, he broke the tie with ''Sunny Jim'' Fitzsimmons for most Triple Crown wins.
''I shared that record with a very special name,'' Lukas said. ''If I never broke it, I was proud of that. But I'm also proud to have it.''

Golf 's two governing bod-ies outlawed the anchored putting stroke used by four of the last six major cham-pions, approving a new rule that starts in 2016 and urg-ing the PGA Tour to follow along so the 600-year-old sport is still played under one set of rules.
The Royal & Ancient Golf Club and the U.S. Golf Association adopted Rule 14-1b, which prohibits play-ers from anchoring a club against their bodies.
“We strongly believe that this rule is for the better-ment of the game,” USGA President Glen Nager said. “Rule 14-1b protects one of the important challenges in the game - the free swing of the entire club.”
The decision Tuesday ends six months of sometimes rancorous debate. The rule was opposed by the PGA Tour and the PGA of America, which contended the stroke commonly used for long putters was not hurting the game and there was no statistical proof that it was an advantage.
“We recognize this has been a divisive issue, but af-ter thorough consideration, we remain convinced that this is the right decision for golf,” R&A chief executive Peter Dawson said at Eu-
ropean Tour headquarters outside London.
The next step - and perhaps the most important step - is for the PGA Tour to follow the new rule or decide to establish its own condition of competition that would allow players to anchor the long putters. Most believe that would lead to chaos in golf. If a special condition were allowed for the PGA Tour, it would mean players could not use the anchored stroke at the U.S. Open and British Open. Augusta Na-tional is likely to follow the new rule at the Masters.
PGA Tour Commis-sioner Tim Finchem said in February the USGA and R&A would be “making a mistake” to adopt the rule, though he also has stressed in just about every interview that it was critical for golf to play under one set of rules.
The tour said in a state-ment it would consult with its Player Advisory Council and policy board to de-termine “whether various provisions of Rule 14-1b will be implemented in our com-petitions, and if so, examine the process for implementa-tion.” It declined further comment until then.
“I think it's really important that the PGA Tour - and all the professional tours - continue to follow one set of rules,” USGA execu-tive director Mike Davis said. “We have gotten very
positive feedback from the tours around the world saying that they like one set of rules, they like the R&A and USGA governing those. So if there was some type of schism, we don't think that would be good for golf.”
The new rule does not ban the long putters, only the way they commonly are used. Golfers no longer will be able to anchor the club against their bodies to cre-ate the effect of a hinge.
PGA of America President Ted Bishop, who had some of the sharpest comments over the last few months, also said his group would discuss the new rule - and confer with the PGA Tour - before decid-ing how to proceed.
“We are disappointed with this outcome,” Bishop said. “As we have said publicly and repeatedly during the comment period, we do not believe 14-1b is in the best interest of recreational golfers and we are concerned about the negative impact it may have on both the enjoyment and growth of the game.”
Some forms of anchoring have been around at least 40 years, and old photo-graphs suggest it has been used even longer.
“It can never be too late to do the right thing” Nager said. “The playing rules are not based on statistical studies. They are based on judgments that define the game and its intended challenge. One of
those challenges is to control the entire club, and anchor-ing alters that challenge.’’
Those in favor of anchored putting argued that none of the top 20 players in the PGA Tour's most reliable putting statistic used a long putter, and if it was such an advantage, why wasn't everyone using it?
The governing bodies an-nounced the proposed rule on Nov. 28, even though they had no data to show an advantage. What concerned them more was a spike in usage on the PGA Tour, more junior golfers using the long putters and com-ments from instructors that it was a better way to putt. There was concern the conventional putter would become obsolete over time.The topic was so sensitive that the USGA and R&A allowed for a 90-day comment period, an unprecedented move for the groups that set the rules of golf. The USGA said about 2,200 people offered feedback through its website, while the R&A said it had about 450 people from 17 countries go through its website.
Among those who spoke in favor of the ban were Tiger Woods, Brandt Snedeker and Steve Stricker.
