BY THOMAS MATTSON AACCURACYCCURACY TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER DOUGLAS — Sitting in the old Town Hall, most voters coming out to Town Meeting probably wondered what a “devise” was. WWAATCHTCH Everyone knows the word “device.” It goes back to 14th century England and France and means “something devised or contrived.” Its root meaning is “division.” The idea was you formed new ideas and The Blackstone Valley Tribune that was a kind of dividing off the new from the old.

The editor will return your It was decided to use this money, in addition to $25,000 provided by phone call. the town, to put up a new Town Hall with a clock tower, as Wallis had dictated in his will. On July 4, 1922, 15-year-old William “Bill” Wallis, the latest descen- dant of the Wallis family,laid the granite cornerstone of the new town hall. Within the cornerstone are the contract for construction of the Town Hall, a copy of the Old Home Week celebration program, a copy of the Worcester Telegram and a large number of coins from a local collection. Bill Wallis owned and operated the Wallis Lumber Company at the corner of Main and Northwest Main streets for many years. In the late 1960s he once turned on an electric switch for a visitor to get the old leather belts cranking the sawmill machines in the way waterpower once ran things. It was like something out of Willie Wonka’s Chocolate Factory.Wallis also served the town on a number of Thomas Mattson photo committees and was a leading citizen for many years. The former Douglas Town Hall now houses a branch of the U.S. Post Office. Old Home Weeks were held throughout New England and they usu- ally flaunted a parade down Main Street, among other things. The building has since 1990 been leased to the U.S. Postal Service.

TheHeartOfMassachusetts.com BLACKSTONE VALLEY TRIBUNE Friday, May 7, 2010 • 11 SPORTS Beavers build big lead to rout Minutemen

BY NICK ETHIER SPORTS STAFF WRITER CHARLTON — With raindrops falling throughout the game and a cold, gusty wind bellowing all afternoon, the Bay Path and Blackstone Valley Tech baseball teams were playing in less-than- stellar field conditions on April 28. But it didn’t seem to affect the bats of the Beavers or the right arm of Valley Tech pitcher Sean O’Rourke, who threw a complete game. When all was said and done, the Beavers dispatched the Minutemen 15-2. Valley Tech erupted for 17 hits and scored once in the first inning, four times in the second, six times in the third, and once more in the fourth before Bay Path managed to push a runner across home plate. Valley Tech Coach Len O’Neil said his team has been strug- gling with the bats as of late, but it didn’t show in this game. O’Rourke hit a two out single into right field in the first inning, but the ball skipped past the outfielder and BVT’s starting pitcher ended up on third base. Eddie Moran then doubled him in to score the first run of the game. The Beavers then got back on the attack in the second inning when Greg Morin and Greg Barlow contributed with one out singles, although both balls prob- ably should have been fielded cleanly.Sean Doyle’s bloop single down the right field line then Shawn Kelley photos scored Morin.
