A Greeting from Grandpa at the Finish Line

CHS Senior to Run in Boston Marathon on her Birthday
by Sue Krzeminski
This will be the biggest run
of Catie Callinans life. On
April 16, the Campbell High

Boston Marathon. To add to the
excitement, she turns 18 that day,
and that makes her the youngest
participant in the marathon this
year.

Hands-On Laboratory Experiences Come to Memorial School

Staff photos by Len Lathrop

Hudson Memorial School students have some fun investigating the DNA table.
by Len Lathrop
While it was tucked into a corner of the rear parking lot, all you
had to do was look for the students to find the MilliporeSigma
Curiosity Cube. Students from the Hudson Memorial School health
classes visited the Curiosity Cube to take part in three different STEM
activities.
Hands-on laboratory experiences are critical to sparking student
interest in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM)
careers. This key insight is driving a large aspect of MilliporeSigmas
corporate responsibility strategy and its investment in Curiosity
Labs. This program has brought interactive, hands-on science
lessons and employee volunteers to classrooms around the world
to spark scientific curiosity and passion early --paving the way to a
future filled with innovative breakthroughs and helping encourage
students to pursue careers in STEM fields. MilliporeSigma has
brought its Curiosity Labs program to Boston, several Massachusetts
towns and one New Hampshire school.
MilliporeSigma, a global life science company with its new
Greater Boston hub of approximately 1,300 employees, has a
strong partnership with several community organizations, including

be offered this opportunity, as the Curiosity Cube visits are in high

Pack 11 Supports the Troops

On Sunday, Oct. 15, Litchfield Pack 11 served breakfast and lunch
to troops at the Londonderry Reserve Center. Representatives from
the Army, Navy and Marines, provided the Cub Scouts an experience
they will never forget. They gave high fives, sat down and talked with
the boys, showed them some weapons and trucks, and even showed
them how to prepare an MRE (and most tried it). The Cubs also wrote
letters and drew pictures for the sister platoons that are currently
deployed.
It was not only a highlight for the Scouts to experience as one

Home of Frank A. and Effie May Winn
by Ruth Parker
This week we visit the homestead of Frank Almon and Effie May
(Wyeth) Winn on Lowell Road. Frank moved to Hudson from
Pelham with his parents, Franklin A. and Lizzie Winn, about 1883
when he was 8 years old. His family purchased a farm of over 70
acres which stretched from Lowell Road to the river. Across one
part of the farm was a large brook that traveled through fields and
woods, making its course through the rocky gorge to the river. This
is where Frank played, grew, and worked with his family. By todays
landmarks, this farm includes most, if not all, of the land between
Winn Avenue and Winnhaven Drive (between 35 and 49 Lowell
Road) and extending westward to the river. Between these roads
and adjacent to Lowell Road was a large tilled field for growing
vegetables for market. The family home with the large attached barn
was located at what is now 1 Winn Ave. and faced this field. On
Dec. 24, 1958, the barn was destroyed by a spectacular fire. The
firefighters were able to save the house.
As a young man, Frank made his way across the United States,
but he soon returned to his home here in Hudson. Along with his
parents, he tilled the farm fields all his life. In due time, he came
into possession of the farm. In September 1915 he and Effie May
Wyeth were married; and it is here that they raised their family.
Frank was a tireless worker with both his hands and his head. He
not only knew about agriculture, he also knew about the wider
world of business and economics.
Effie May, born in Nashua in May 1886, was educated in Nashua
schools and Keene Normal School. Prior to their marriage in 1915,
she taught school in Nashua. She later did substitute teaching in
Hudson, Pelham, Merrimack, and Nashua. Frank and Effie May
raised a family of three girls: Lillian Emma (born about 1918), Effie
May (born about 1921) and Frances (born about 1923).
Frank passed in September 1935, at the early age of 60; Effie May
and her daughters continued to live at the homestead. By the end of
1942, all three daughters were married. Lilliam Emma was married
to Walter Schindler; Effie May married Clayton Oban; and Frances
Stebbins married Alton Drown. Mrs. Winn, Effie May, was a resident
And So it Begins ...
the land usage changed,
the Frank A. Winn farm
was developed, at first
with the apartments and
residential buildings in
the wooded area and
adjacent to the river.
Later the farm field
between Winn Avenue
and Winnhaven Drive
were developed. The earliest development
occurred in 1963 with the construction of LNL
Bowl at what is now 8 Winn Ave. Named for the
three owners: Earl Libby, Leon Noel, and Adrien
Labrie; LNL Bowl offered candlepin bowling
lanes, a sport unique to New England. The lanes
operated until 1978. By 1979, this site became
the home of Dessault Engineering Associates. It is
now home to Opti-Sciences.
By 1964, construction began for the first of
many restaurants to operate at 49 Lowell Road,
likely owned by members of the Winn family. The
Winstead Restaurant began operation in 1965.
By 1969 this was the site of Hayward Farms
Restaurant. Over the succeeding years a number
of restaurants were located here. From what I can
piece together the list is as follows: 1972 - Pizza
by Giovanni, 1980 - Straw Hat Restaurant, and
1984 - Primos. Following Primos there were
Ziggys, Stevie Ps, Yacht Club, Charmans, and
presently SoHo.
Construction for Nashua Federal Savings and
Loan at 45 Lowell Road began in 1979. A bank
has remained at this site, becoming Bank of
America and more recently Enterprise Bank.
More recently, two additional sites have been
developed. First the retail/office mall at 43 Lowell
Road known as Bell Tower plaza. The second is
the two-unit mall at 35 Lowell Road. This later
unit was actually constructed on the portion of
the original parking area for LNL Bowl.
The Winn House at 1 Winn Ave. was razed
around 2006 and replaced with the current
building. The first occupant was European Deli
with a specialty menu including European-style
Bicentenary Celebration
This week the Bah community of Hudson joins Bahs around the
world in celebrating the Bicentenary of the Birth of Bahullh, the Founder
of the Bah Faith. A free, one-hour film titled Light to the World will be
shown at Rodgers Memorial Library on Sunday, October 22nd at 1:00 PM.
All are welcome.
The name Bahullh means the Glory of God. Two hundred years
after His birth, the Faith of Bahullh has spread to essentially every coun-
try in the world. Born to a wealthy and powerful family in Iran in 1817,
Bahullh sacrificed His wealth and ease to bring Gods Message. Because
of His Faith, He was beaten, cast into a dungeon in heavy chains, exiled from
country to country, and imprisoned for much of the rest of His life. But this
only served to spread His teachings to a wider audience: the message of unity,
peace, and justice for all people and all nations.
Bahs believe that in each age God sends a Messenger to mankind.
These great religious Educators teach us about God and the nature of man.
Each Messenger builds upon the Messages of Those gone before, much like
teachers in a school. The purpose of this Divine education is the progress of
our individual souls toward spiritual perfection, and the progress of human
society toward equality, prosperity, and peace.
All the Messengers in the past have promised that a great World Teach-
er would come, Who would bring an age of universal peace. Bahs believe
that Bahullh fulfilled these promises and prophecies of the past. And that
the same spirit that was in all the Messengers is in Bahullh.
The social teachings of each Messenger are designed for that particular
age. The main theme of the Bah Faith is unity, in all its aspects. Among
the Teachings of Bahullh designed to bring about world unity are
The oneness of mankind - we are one human family
The independent investigation of truth
The harmony of science and religion - truth is one
Universal compulsory education
The common foundation of all religions
The equality of men and women
The elimination of racial, ethnic, national, and all other
forms of prejudice
The need for a world tribunal to uphold universal peace
A spiritual solution to the economic problem
The need to choose a universal auxiliary language

The Word Around Town...
What about Voter Fraud in NH?
Surprise, surprise, Donald Trump was right; there was significant voter
fraud in New Hampshire. And what was the reaction of the people who
benefitted from this fraud? The usual reaction from these out of touch with
reality people, Bill Gardner should resign.
No, the people who benefitted from this fraud should resign because
if these votes werent counted, the results of the election would have been
quite different. How did this happen? Start with same-day registration.
We have 364 days to register to vote. Why cant that get done? Are peoples
lives so hectic and nobody at the local level checked? Is this Bill Gardners
fault? I blame the legislators who voted for same-day registration, even
though others in the legislature warned that just what happened would
happen. But of course, as we all know, anti same-day legislators at the time
were those immoral Republicans who want to make voting difficult for
minorities, women, elderly, disabled and Democrats in general. We had a
system that worked. It wasnt broke, why did we have to fix it?
Republican legislators, lets get this done! End same day registration!
Now, on to the deal President Trump worked out with the Democrats.
Why did he do this? Because the Congressional Republican leadership
cant get anything done. There is a segment of the Republican Party that
thinks theirs is the only way, no compromise. They couldnt be more wrong.
Our country was founded on compromise. Compromise is not a four letter
word, but obstinance is a four letter word. Did healthcare reform have
to fail because Senator Cruz told his constituents he would vote to repeal
Obamacare? Whoever heard of a politician keeping his campaign promises?
Didnt the President shock Congress with his DACA decision! Now
Congress will have to do something besides talk in 30 second sound bites.
They will have to take a stand, and it will be unpopular with some voters.
In their election campaigns, members of Congress have told us to send them
to Washington; theyll make the tough decisions. Well, heres the chance.
John McCain and Lindsay Graham, you have both been full of advice for
President Trump. Now you have to make a decision of your own.

Last week the Fox threw in a couple of zingers about the Hudson
Selectmens meeting, but as the day wore on, many more thoughts
came together about that meeting Tuesday, Oct. 10. While the
talk of bathrooms at Benson Park jumped out in front again,
the underlining issue that should have come to the top was the
presentation from Hudson Cable Television items. First, lets say
that this means no disrespect to the cable chairperson ( who works
tirelessly as a volunteer) or the cable director or the unknown cable
assistant director.
1) Hudson had a warrant article many
what
years ago. Maybe not many to some, but
you decide; it was 1993 at the annual
town meeting:
Article 34: Additional Personnel
To see if the Town will vote to
does
require that the Board of Selectmen
submit, in warrant article for at the next
Annual Town Meeting and all future
Annual Town Meetings, all requests for
additional personnel for all departments
in the town. This procedure will remain
in effect until rescinded by a vote of the
town at a future annual Town Meeting.
th e F o x S a y
A motion was made by Gary
Francoeur and seconded by Albert
Kashulines to adopt the article as
read. After some discussion in favor and in opposition to the
article, a motion was made by Tony Lekas and seconded by John
Drabinowicz to amend the article to add and for any requests for
increases in salary or benefits after the section that said requests
for additional personnel - for all departments in town. There being
no further debate, Moderator Shawn Jasper called for a verbal vote
on the motion to amend. A majority of the members present voted
in the affirmative. Article 34 was adopted as amended.
Thus, new positions in town government have to go before the
voters. Of course, selectmen will yell that it is only advisory, but
many leadership boards before them held themselves and town staff
accountable to it.
It could be argued that switching from a consultant to an
employee isnt a new position. Say what you may, but certainly the

Humanities Council are sponsoring a presentation
by Stephen Collins, an actor who brings to life the
iconic American poet, Walt Whitman. Collins
portrays Whitman on the evening of his 70th
birthday. The audience is a visitor to his room
as he prepares for his birthday celebration. He
reminisces and questions his success as a man
and a poet. We trace back along with him the
experiences that led to the creation of Leaves of
Grass, his lifetime work, and the occurrence of
the Civil War, when he nursed wounded soldiers
in hospitals. This will leave you with a greater

Make it a Green Winter with These Energy-saving Tips

Conserving energy is a great way to protect the planet and save
money. While energy bills might be highest in summer thanks to air
conditioning units, certain factors around a house can make winter
more wasteful and costly than it needs to be.
Energy bills are influenced by a variety of factors, including geog-
raphy and how energy-efficient a home is. For example, according
to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the average
monthly utility bill in Connecticut in 2015 was $153.13, while New
Mexico residents paid slightly more than half that amount ($79.23)
on average. Homeowners cannot control winter weather, which can
greatly affect how much energy homeowners consume between
December and March. However, there are other ways for homeown-
ers to curtail their energy consumption and save money throughout
winter.
Address any leaks or drafts. Drafty windows and doorways can
make the air inside homes feel warmer in the summer and colder
in the winter. As autumn weather grows colder, homeowners can
perform simple inspections around windows and doorways to de-
termine if they have any leaks. On a cold and/or windy day, place a
hand near all windows and doors
stat to a reasonable, eco-friendly temperature.
Inspect air vents, faucets and plumbing fixtures. Air vents,
faucets and plumbing fixtures attached to exterior walls should be
Inspect heating systems at the start of each new season. Ac-
cording to EnergyStar.gov, heating systems account for 29 percent of
the average homeowners energy expenditures. Inspect your heating
or HVAC system before the start of winter, making sure all gas or oil
connections are operating properly. EnergyStar.gov notes that dirty
burners and cracked heat exchangers can cause heating units to
operate less efficiently and may even pose a safety risk. Inspect the
air filter of the heating system at least once per month, as filters can
quickly become dirty during a heavy-use season like winter. Dirty
filters cause the system to work harder to keep a home warm, un-
necessarily wasting energy as a result.
Install a Wi-fi enabled programmable thermostat. Some pro-
grammable thermostats can be very difficult to use effectively, mak-
ing it far too difficult if not impossible for homeowners to set their
thermostats for various temperatures in a single day. Wi-fi enabled
programmable thermostats that allow homeowners to control their
heating and cooling systems via their smartphones can be more
user-friendly than many other programmable thermostats, ensur-

10U Bears Steamroll Nashua PAL and Londonderry
courtesy of Todd Crawford
The Hudson-Litchfield Bears 10U football team has had
Hudson~LitchfieldSports
two decisive victories over the past two weeks, winning
32-0 over Nashua PAL at Stellos Stadium on Oct. 8 and
then shutting out a playoff-bound Londonderry team 20-0
at home last Sunday.
After a brutal early-season schedule that included
losses to the top three teams in the state, the Bears have
rebounded during the last couple of weeks with strong
defense and an improving offense.
Against Nashua PAL, the Bears scored first on a TD
pass from Shawn Boudreau to Tyler Dupuis. Dupuis then
converted the Bears first kicked extra point of the year for
an early 8-0 lead. Later in the second quarter, a bootleg TD
run by Dupuis was quickly followed up by a punishing TD
run by Scott Hershberger, who leveled the PAL linebacker
on his way to the end zone. The defense continued to stifle
PAL in the second half, allowing no first downs, and Sean
Cryan and Charlie Crawford added long TD runs to salt the
game away late in the third quarter.
Strong defensive contributions were made at linebacker
from Brady Nickerson, Mikey McGowan, Johnny
Cruz-McGuire, Patrick Deely, Ryan Rocheleau, Logan
MacEachern, and Jake Wettergreen. Stellar defensive line
play from Cam Bourbeau, Cam Murray, Zach Poulin, and
Shane Mackey keep the running game in check.
This past Sunday, a 5-1 Londonderry team came to
Hudson Memorial School with hopes of potentially
clinching a first-round playoff bye, but the Bears had other
ideas. Charlie Crawford forced an early Londonderry
fumble, which was recovered by Julian Goode, to stop
Londonderrys opening drive. Long runs by Boudreau and
Crawford quickly set up the Bears first TD, a 2-yard QB
sneak by Boudreau, to make the score 6-0.
The Bears then recovered an onside kick, but were
unable to put together a scoring drive. Londonderry then
drove the ball down the field and, with two minutes to
go before halftime, had 4th-down and goal-to-go from
the Bears 5. However, a potential TD pass towards the
left pylon was tipped away at the last second by a diving

Crawford, and the Bears had the ball deep in their own
territory. On the first play of the drive, Crawford ran
through a gaping hole off the right tackle created by
Nick Hershberger, Tyler Dupuis, and Andrew Deely, who
took two Londonderry players out of the play in quick
succession. Crawford juked the Londonderry linebacker
and was off to the races down the right sideline for a 95-
yard TD run. Dupuis kicked the extra point on a perfect
snap from Devin Scott to make the halftime score 14-0.
The Bears special teams play continued to dominate on
the opening kickoff of the second half, as Cryan took the
kickoff and ran 60 yards for the TD, with great blocking up
front by Damian Derkrikorian, Mikey McGowan, Jacob
Bosselait, and Gavin Huntoon.
The rest of the game was dominated by the defenses,

although Crawford did have two more long TD runs called
back due to penalties. Nick Hershberger and Andrew
Deely pounded the ball up the middle effectively most of
the second half behind great blocking from Max Aldrich,
Johnny Cruz-McGuire, and Loghan Marchand to help keep
drives alive and kill off the remaining time. On defense, Scott Hershberger (#5) bowls over the Nashua PAL linebacker on his way to the end zone.
Cam Kennedy had an interception, Cryan had a fumble
recovery, and Jayden Chandler played a great cornerback to
stop any Londonderry momentum.
Bears head coach Keith Deely, whose voice goes up
to 11, said It has been nice to see the boys turn things
around late in the season in all three phases of the game.
Our defense has done a better job of containing outside
runs the last couple of weeks, and weve done a great job
both running and throwing the ball on offense. Special
teams has also excelled, with some long kickoffs, kickoff
returns for touchdowns, and our first successful kicked
extra points. While this season wasnt as successful as
we had hoped, there is a lot to be excited about as we
look towards next year, and finishing with another strong
performance in Keene is the first step.
The Bears travel to Keene this Sunday for their final
game of the year, in the hopes of ending their season on a
3-game winning streak.

Department responded to 7-Eleven, 230 Central St. for a report of
a possible phone making noise in a Post Office mail box located
in front of the store. Upon arrival officers could hear the device.
Due to the suspicious nature, the Nashua Police Bomb Unit was
contacted and responded to the scene to x-ray the mailbox. Once
the Nashua Bomb Unit deemed the mailbox safe, the mailbox
was opened by a member of the postal service. The item was
determined to be a cell phone properly packaged for a return
and was secured by the postal service. The store was closed for
approximately two hours, and was re-opened.
