When a knife-wielding woman threatened to kill her family and herself, officers converged on Hichborn Street and Shirley Avenue and managed to capture the woman with the help of former Fire Chief Dan Doherty. No one was hurt and the incident’s safe end- ing represented an opportunity for department-wide pride. Russo’s 1999 retirement left department leader- ship in limbo until 2002 when former Chief Terence Reardon took command and ushered in a prolonged period of stability marked by tragedy. Officer Dan- iel Talbot’s murder near Revere High School in 2007 stunned the department and Revere. Officers were still mourning Talbot in 2009 when Officers Joseph Singer and Kenneth Bruker jumped into the cold water off Rocky Beach and rescued three children. Through all the department’s highs and lows, changes in chiefs and a move to a new police station, Carl Ruggiero has moved up the ranks and become a department leader in a city, in the words of its mayor, “built on pride.”

A very early look at Barry

COURTESY PHOTOS | DICK MURRAY Barry Goudreau, rock star in the 1970s whose career is steaming ahead with his new band, Engine Room, got his start with The Urchins. The early-1960s band featured an all-Swampscott lineup — Goudreau, Cory Katsoulis, Brad French, Tom Murray and Howie Kline. Goudreau’s father, Louis promoted the band with a home-grown poster extolling The Urchins as “Full of life on stage or wherever there are people to be entertained.” In the classic tradition of rock-and-roll fanzines, the poster featured a band picture and photographs of each mem- ber with a catchy description. The elder Goudreau described his son as “small and quiet but groovy.”

Every year, someone gets hosed. Either a team is excluded entirely or it’s given a lower seed than it should get. Juggling that many teams and tting them into slots isn’t easy, and some people are bound to be unhappy about it. But this one seems egregious. And it goes to show you that the difference between the “upper crust” and “everyone else” in col- lege basketball is about the same as with everything else. Uncondi- tional acceptance is hard-earned. So the Shockers have nothing to do but take it out on Dayton. Which they will. A quick glance at this year’s brackets reveals Duke will have a cakewalk to the East nal. Why should that be a surprise? Duke’s one of those teams, like the Patri- ots have been lately. Everything falls its way. If there’s a close call in the late stages of game, the Blue Devils get it. This is why so many people can’t stand them (disclaimer … that includes me). It’s not Mike Krzyzewski. He seems like a decent enough guy — not what you’d call a referee baiter or anything like that. He seems to play by the rules off the court. But everything always goes Duke’s way. This year, not one team heading into the Elite 8 strikes fear into anyone’s hearts.

By Rosalie Harrington ITEM FOOD EDITOR When my son Georgie was about 9 we bought him a little boat called a Puffin. Many an early summer Saturday morn- ing he would take out the small craft to fish for our breakfast. A few hours later my little guy would show up at the kitch- en door with his catch — and a big smile. They were delicate little fish, probably cod, and when cleaned and dipped in a little flour they were perfect for a quick saute with a side of scrambled eggs. Several times during the day he would look for reassurance. “How’d you like my catch, Mom?” He loved the compliments. By the end of that summer he was ready for his next boating/fishing adven- ture, hinting that for his 10th birthday he would like some lobster traps. We pur- chased four traps from a lobsterman in Gloucester. Georgie was a happy camper, or should I say, a happy lobsterman. From the time he was a little guy he loved anything nautical. He chose a wall- paper for his room that depicted the fa- mous Charles W. Morgan whaling ship. He loved going to Mystic Seaport in Con- necticut, where he could see the actual ship. I made him curtains out of nylon fabric that I got from sailmaker Norm Cressy (who, coincidentally, occupied the third floor of the building that one day would house Rosalie’s).
