BY RYAN GRANNAN-DOLL STAFF WRITER A local lawmaker is on the move to bring a state Registry of Motor Vehicles branch back to Southbridge. State Rep. Geraldo Alicea, D-Charlton, announced Wednesday, Sept. 30, he plans to file a bill to require the RMV to have an office in Southbridge. Even so, House attorneys say the adminis- tration retains the authority about branch closings and openings, according to legislative documents from Alicea’s office. Still, the attor- neys say filing the bill would help gain public hearings over the issue. Concerns and frustrations over the Charlton branch, which opened in August, prompted Alicea, who claims, the RMV “stonewalled” his concerns, to draft the bills “There has been such a strong outcry from day one, about the move … so that’s what prompted me to take the next step,” Alicea said. The sophomore lawmaker also plans to file legislation that would require the agency to hold a public hearing about its decision to close the Southbridge branch earlier this year and open a branch on the Massachusetts For students, a different kind of camp Turnpike in Charlton. In addition, he plans to file a bill requiring the RMV to hold public hearing about future BY RYAN GRANNAN-DOLL donate more than money to peo- various to lighten the burden of Slavinskas.

BY BRIAN AUSTIN SPORTS CORRESPONDENT DUDLEY — Members of Shepherd Hill’s football team Friday, Oct. 2 found themselves often chasing down the player in the white No. 5 jersey. That No. 5, St. Peter Marian’s Daquain Yarrell, broke out for more than 250 yards and three touchdowns — including a big 90-yard touchdown run just after halftime. That was more than enough to push the Guardians ahead of the Rams for a 28-6 victory. The Guardians struck early and often in the first half, while Shepherd Hill’s offense was struggling. Yarrell’s first big gain was a 17-yard rush pushing St. Peter Marian across midfield, the next play broke out for 48 more plus a touch- down. On the Guardians’ next possession, they pushed 58 yards downfield for another score. While Yarrell had three carries for 18 yards, plus a 17-yard reception — this drive was capped by a 15-yard Lamar Edmonds pass to Tyler O’Neil in the back corner of the end zone. The two point conversion put the Guardians up 14. The Rams were able to get a first down on their third drive. But just as Shepherd Hill was successful in convert- ing on third down, the next play was a throw for an inter- ception by Yarrell. St. Peter Marian wasted little time seiz- ing the opportunity, two plays later landing a big 35-yard strike from Edmonds to Kyle Brennan. From there it was more Yarrell, being handed the ball seven times in a row and eight out of nine, pushing for another St. Peter Marian touchdown. The Rams had little time to get a drive going before halftime, and went into the locker rooms down 21-0. The Guardians picked up in the second half right where they left off in the first. Starting from their own 10-yard line, Edmonds handed Shawn Kelley photos the ball over to Yarrell once again. But Yarrell The St. Peter Marian Guardians traveled to Dudley Friday, Oct. 2 to just kept going, and going, and going — all the take on the Shepherd Hill Rams, and came away with the 28-6 victo- way down the right sideline, 90 yards for ry. another touchdown. The Rams found one bright spot in the end of the third quarter, starting with great field position at the St. Peter Marian 38-yard line. Jason Manahan and Josh Breault pushed Shepherd Hill down to the 17-yard line, but the moment of the drive was when Breault got past a St. Peter Marian defender and dove in the end zone for the Rams’ only touchdown. The Rams again threatened with time wind- ing down at the end of the game. Starting from their own 20-yard line, they pushed 50 yards downfield with numerous carries between Craig Snow and Bryan Borezo. But the clock ran out before the Rams were able to score again.

The website CUVs as they are sometimes known. It’s will not accept any OEM advertising for not just pickups, which why some peo- vehicles eligible for a Car or Truck of ple like to proclaim, “The Ford Raptor is the Year award. the only real truck on the list.” Consumers will have until Oct. 16 at By the way, in a short aside, I drove the noon to register their selections for Ford Raptor at an off-road course in the Internet Car of the Year and Internet Poconos recently. It more than proved Truck of the Year. Then, starting Oct. 19 its chops even with running boards, at noon they will select among three which tend to diminish a truck’s abili- vehicles in each category that have been ties in the backwoods.
