is heating up, with four people vying for
two seats on the Board of Selectmen.
Ellis Avenue resident Scott Lambi-

for selectman. Lambiase works in the
Department of Inspectional Services for

A visit with Abigail Collins
NHS president discusses role in school chapter
H
By Emily Brain
Express Intern
igh school seniors
are faced with
countless amounts
of responsibility and stress
as they manage jobs, sports,
clubs, school work and, of
course, the college application
process. Whitman-Hanson
Regional High School senior
Abigail Collins handles all of
the average student respon-
sibilities, and then some, as,
earlier this year, she accepted
the position of President of the
National Honor Society.
When were you inducted
into the WHRHS chapter of
National Honor Society? I
was inducted into NHS at the
end of my sophomore year, so,
about two years ago.
How has your position
changed since then? Since
sophomore year, I’ve gone
from member, to secretary, to
president and I’ve really en-
joyed experiencing different
aspects of working with the
club. Before I had any real lead-
ership position within NHS, I
got a chance to just participate
in events and get a real feel for
everything the organization
stands for. I began to develop a
real passion for everything that
the NHS stands for. I took the
first chance I got the next year
to run for a leadership position
and became the secretary. This
position gave me the opportu-
nity to work with the organi-
zational side of the club, as I
worked with other officers to
plan and construct events and
meetings. By the end of my
junior year, I had just become
really attached to the National
Honor Society and decided
to run for president. It’s a lot
more responsibility, but it is
absolutely worth it.
How did you feel when
you were nominated for
president? Being nominated
for president was such a good
feeling. Knowing that my peers
supported me and respected
me enough to nominate me
to be their president made me
feel like I had made the kind of
impact on my peers that I can
be proud of.
How did you feel when
you were elected? I was hon-
estly pretty scared. It hit me
that I had signed myself up
for a lot of responsibility and
that I had an obligation to my
peers and to my community
to live up to that responsibil-
ity. However, it was also really
exciting. Being elected gave
me the chance and the power
to make decisions about nec-
essary change and improve-
ments within our community
at school and outside.
What are your respon-
sibilities as president? I run
meetings and help to organize
many fundraisers and events
that we participate in through-
out the year. I also feel that it
is an unwritten responsibility
that I support all the members
of our NHS chapter—that’s a
responsibility that I give to my-
self. I have so much respect for
everyone in NHS and feel like
Whitman-Hanson Regional High School senior Abigail Collins is
the school’s 2010-11 National Honor Society president.
anything that they are going to
tackle, any idea that they have
to make some sort of change
or improvement, is one worth
listening to and pursuing.
In the past, what kind of
events has NHS participated
in, and what do you hope
can be done in the future?
Our major event this year was
definitely Miles For Meals,
the walk for the Whitman
and Hanson food pantries that
Ryan Kelly put together earlier
this year. The walk raised a lot
of money for the pantries and
continued our efforts to fight
hunger and poverty within the
community – one of our big-
gest focuses throughout the
year. We also make multiple
trips to the senior centers and
we have made it a tradition to
bake cookies for the troops,
which is something small that
we can do that really makes
a difference and brightens up
their days. Currently, we are
selling smiley face buttons to
benefit Smile Train, an organi-
zation that provides operations
for children born with cleft pal-
lets. In the future, I really hope
we can maintain the position
we hold within the community
at the moment, continuing our
effort toward the causes we al-
ready support, increasing what
we can give as we grow and
become more capable.
What are some upcom-
ing events in NHS? Coming
up, we have Teacher Apprecia-
tion Day, at which we provide
breakfast for our teachers and
give out “thank you” cards as a
small token of our gratitude for
everything that they do for us
throughout the year. We also
have our trip to volunteer at
the Greater Boston Food Bank,
which always proves to be a
fun and rewarding trip that also
helps us to continue our work
with the food pantries, but on
a bigger scale. Near the end of
the year we also participate in
Habitat For Humanity’s event,

Stolen jewelry
identified
An East Bridgewater couple is facing more
larceny charges after victims of house break-
ins — including one in Whitman — identified
pieces of stolen jewelry found during a police
search.
Patrick J. Lydon, 36, of Natalie Drive, East
Bridgewater is facing three charges of receiv-
ing stolen property under $250 and his wife,
Kelly Lydon, 31, of the same address is facing
one charge of receiving stolen property under
$250.
Police & court briefs
On Wednesday, Feb. 9, police recov-
ered thousands of dollars in goods, including
Nikon cameras, jewelry, cash and laptop com-
puters, at the Lydons’ home. Patrick Lydon
was reportedly a suspect in several breaking
and entering cases in Whitman and surround-
ing towns. A search warrant for his home was
activated under the lead of WEB task force in-
vestigator Sergeant Detective Tim Hanlon of
Whitman.
Recently, a Whitman resident whose Davis
Street home was broken into on Nov. 24 iden-
tified pieces of jewelry taken from the Lydons’
home as having been stolen in the break-in,
Whitman Police Chief Christine May-Stafford
said.
An Abington resident also identified jew-
elry items taken in a Jan. 21 break-in at his
home, May-Stafford said.
Residents report
possible veterans
group scam
Whitman police have received several
reports over the past week from residents
concerned about phone calls from a group
claiming to be collecting donations to send
care packages to soldiers overseas.
“At this point, we haven’t been able to
verify this veterans group, so we do believe
it’s a scam,” Whitman Police Chief Chris-
tine May-Stafford said.
Abington police also have reported the
calls but have not been able to identify the
group, May-Stafford said.
She said Whitman Veterans Agent Gerry
Eaton has been advised of the issue.
FAA eyes Whitman
airspace
Whitman Police Chief Christine May-
Stafford received an interesting call Tuesday
— from the Federal Aviation
Administration. A no-fly zone
was in place throughout the
area because President Barack
Obama was in Boston, but
FAA officials had observed
a small plane on their radar.
The plane, which had taken off
from Mansfield, suddenly dis-
appeared from the radar some- certificates available
where over Whitman, thus the
call to local police.
“Apparently the pilot had
turned off his responder, and
they had lost him on the radar
over Whitman. That’s why they
contacted us,” May-Stafford
said. “They were able to verify
that he did in fact return to the
airport Mansfield.
May-Stafford said she was
not sure whether the pilot had
been charged in the incident.

Essex Street home
broken into
Whitman police are investigating a
house break-in that occurred early last week
on Essex Street.
Officers responded to the residence
around 4:35 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 28 af-
ter the homeowner reported coming home
from work to find her home broken into, ac-
cording to Whitman Police Chief Christine
May-Stafford. It appeared the suspect(s) had
forced entry through a rear door.
The homeowner reported several elec-
tronics and jewelry items had been stolen,
according to May-Stafford. The Plymouth
County Sheriff’s Department BCI unit was
called to process the scene for fingerprints
and evidence.
The incident remains under investiga-
tion.
Residents are urged to call police to re-
port any suspicious activity, May-Stafford
said, as there have been several homes bro-
ken into throughout town in recent months.
Speeding stop leads to
drug charges
A Whitman man is facing drug charges af-
ter police reportedly found cocaine and heroin
in his vehicle during a speeding stop.
A police officer patrolling Whitman Center
around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 1 reportedly
recorded a vehicle going 40 miles per hour in a
25 mph zone on Temple Street and pulled it over.
After stopping the vehicle, officers observed
passengers in the front and back seat ducking
down out of sight. The occupants were told to
exit the vehicle, and a female passenger in the
front seat admitted to having an active warrant,
Police Chief Christine May-Stafford said.
When a male passenger exited the back
seat, officers observed three small plastic bag-
gies containing what appeared to be rock co-
caine on the floor of the vehicle. Upon search-
ing the vehicle, they found another small bag,
May-Stafford said. Police also found a loaded
hypodermic needle containing what appeared
to be heroin near the front driver seat and an-
other small plastic bag containing powdered
cocaine in the driver’s wallet.
The driver, Robert E. Clay, 24, of South
Avenue was charged with possession of a Class
A drug, possession of a Class B drug and cit-
ed for speeding in violation of special regula-
tion (the 25 mph zone). One passenger, Keith
J. Ingles, 28, of North Main Street, Brockton,
was arrested and charged with possession of a
Class B drug. Passenger Lisa M. Allsopp, 34,
of Washington Street, Norwell was arrested on
a default warrant.
All three were released shortly after and
arraigned Wednesday in Brockton District
Court.

Don’t fritter away
those farm fresh eggs
I
By Lisa Chapman, Express Contributor
lmchapman17@gmail.com
’ve been so preoccupied with digging
out from under all this snow that I just
realized that our daylight hours are get-
ting noticeably longer. The increase in daylight
hours will soon trigger chickens to start ramp-
ing up egg production, so it won’t be long now
until we start seeing more farm-fresh eggs at
the winter farmers market in Plymouth (plym-
outhfarmersmarket.org) and
around town.
Eggs are one of the easi-
est local foods to obtain –
perfect for those of us trying
to buy and eat more locally
produced foods. Another
great thing about local eggs
is that they’re actually more
nutritious than the factory-
farmed eggs in the grocery
store. Recent studies like the one conducted
by Mother Earth News in 2007, are finding
that, compared to conventional factory-farmed
eggs, eggs from chickens allowed to eat grass,
weeds, and bugs (known as free range chick-
ens) are lower in cholesterol and saturated fat
and higher in folic acid, omega-3 fatty acids,
beta carotene and many other vitamins. Not to
mention that they taste better and the yolks are
a nice bright orange instead of the pale yellow
most of us have gotten used to. Many gourmet
chefs are now demanding free-range eggs to
cook with.
The eggs available locally from farmers
markets and from backyard chicken owners
around town are much fresher than grocery
store eggs, and of course, the fresher the egg,
the better the taste. That said, you might notice
that a very fresh, hard-boiled egg is tough to
peel. If you intend to hard-boil them, you can
get around this problem by storing them in the
fridge for a couple days before cooking.
Eggs are probably one of the most versatile
ingredients to cook with. One of my favorite
things to do when I have a lot of eggs (and this

e noted this morning that Harvard University
has agreed to allow the Reserve Officer Train-
ing Corps (ROTC) back on campus after over
40 years. Our first reaction was “big deal!” Harvard has been
guilty of institutional hypocrisy for decades; banning ROTC
but accepting numerous senior officers as
graduate students and adjunct faculty along
with the federal money that comes with the
package. Reflecting on this we have developed
a more reasoned opinion. This is a good thing
because at a minimum it will expose more of
the country’s elite to the military and what
By Emery Maddocks
service means to this country.
With the end of the draft in the early 1970’s
and the increasing consolidation of military facilities in the
south and western parts of the country, the nation has become
disengaged from its military with the exception of the National
Guard and, to a lesser extent, the
Reserve. While the military has Getting real
become more professional and more lethal than ever in our his-
tory, there is a danger in having the majority of this democracy
ignorant of things military, an awareness of the profession of
arms and ignorant of the sacrifices demanded of the military
and their families. More and more in the media and in govern-
ment are ignorant of all things military, and in the case of our
elected representatives, ignorance of capabilities and limita-
tions is dangerous.
Within the professional ranks, dislocation from the civil-
ian society is not a good thing. There is a danger of evolving

“family business” to many in service who may represent the
third or fourth generation of professional warrior. This in and
of itself is not a bad thing, but we need to temper the force with
a continuous flow of new ideas and other perspectives. A vigor-
ous ROTC system, along with a vibrant National Guard and
Reserve force, serve the military and the democracy well.
The nation does not need, nor can it really afford, a return
to conscription, the draft. Enabling legislation is in place if
we ever need to conscript large numbers for a national emer-
gency. What we do need is a pool of leadership talent that can
refresh the military and increase awareness among the popu-
lace. To that end we believe that ROTC should be encouraged
on all college campuses or regionally for smaller schools.
We also think a return to mandatory ROTC for freshmen and
sophomores at all land grant colleges (primarily the large state
universities) as was the case from the mid 1860’s to 1967. The
system can then cherry pick the best talent for advanced ROTC
and commissioning. The best of those commissioned would be
invited to join the active forces, the National Guard and the or-
ganized reserve. The balance would form the basis of a pool of
individual ready reserve officers for call up in case of national
emergency.
In addition, we believe the Junior ROTC should be manda-
tory in all public high schools receiving federal money, with a
curriculum focusing on individual discipline, leadership skill
and physical fitness. This for all girls and boys deemed physi-
cally qualified. The program should be instructed by retired
military officers and non-commissioned officers and would
contain no requirement for military service subsequent to grad-
uation. Certainly the development of self-control, discipline
and holistic fitness would improve graduation rates and the
overall learning atmosphere of our public high schools. Also,
it would serve as a civics lesson for all responsible citizens of
what service to the nation and to the local community entail.

Rodgers said he and princi-

selected by the search com-

and hope to have a new coach
in place before the start of the

“It’s exciting to be a part

are to get Whitman-Hanson

Getting both students and

Wrestlers wrap up banner year

Senior captain Cavender closes successful season for Panthers at NE Championships
By Dave Palana, Sports Editor
dave@hansonexpress.com

Derek Cavender was the

last Panther standing from the
Patriot League champions this
season, and he brought the sea-
son to a close this weekend at
the New England Interscholas-
tic Wrestling Championships
in New Haven, Conn.
Cavender lost both his
matches in the 152-pound
bracket but made a strong
showing of himself against
eventual third place finisher
Christopher Chorzepa in his
first match and Jake O’Dell
in his second match, where he
lost by a single point, 4-3.
“Derek was coming back
in the third period and really
pushing [O’Dell],” head coach
Shawn Kain said. “To wrestle
that well against a kid of that
caliber was really good. He
wrestled tough.”
Cavender advanced into
the New England Champion-
ships after placing sixth at the
All State wrestling champion-
ships the week before. Fellow
senior captain Chris Kellum
also made a strong showing
in the 160 bracket, where he
finished in the top eight after
taking second in the Division
II championships.
“Chris and Derek were
both outstanding for us this
year,” said Kain, who also
gave credit to senior captains
Tom Condon and Alex Perry
for their work leading the team
to a league championship.
“Tom Condon and Alex Perry
were great for our program,
they were very consistent with
the high standards we set both
academically and in the locker
room.”
Fellow senior Pat Johnson
also turned in a strong season
for the Panthers, as did Joe
Petersen. Petersen had the un-

Freshman Shannon
McIsaac scored twice in the
first period for the Ducks, who
eliminated WHP with a 4-0
win at the Shea Ice Arena in
Quincy on Thursday.
“It was a great game, and
they should hold their heads up
high,” head coach Joe Coulter
said of his team. “They gave
100 percent effort; we just fell
a little short.”
WHP was determined
not to let Fontbonne’s senior
captain Taylor Shepherd beat
them, and Krystal Barnard
marked her for most of the
game. Even with Shepherd
out of the action, the Ducks
peppered WHP goalie Kelly
Travers with shots but couldn’t
break through until McIsaac
got open in front of the net and
slid the puck under Travers at
the 5:13 mark. McIsaac found
another crack in the WHP de-
fense minutes later and put the
Ducks up 2-0 on a similar goal
after taking a feed from the
face-off circle at the corner of
the net.
“They’re a very talented
team,” Coulter said. “Krystal
did a great job shutting [Shep-
herd] down. We were able to
control her, but they pulled
some surprises on us. One of
these days, we’re going to get
them.”
WHP started the second
period short-handed, and Erin
McLoughlin took advantage
with a power-play goal in the
first minute to make it 3-0 Seniors Kelly Travers (1), Tricia Stacy (14) and Kristy Kennedy (22) can’t hide their emotions after
Ducks. Shepherd added one of the final buzzer of WHP’s loss to Fontbonne in the MIAA tournament on Thursday. Travers, Stacy and
