PATENEAUDE REPEAT After a nine-year drought, Maine's A1 Lord returned to the winner's circle in the New England championships held Labor Day weekend at Heritage Recreation Center in Sutton, Massachusetts. The Lord's fourteen wins, 78.6 percent ringer average, and tournament high game of 92.3% (48 for 52), were truly records of championship calibre. Al's only loss came at the hand of defending champion Bob Domey in the final round. Upset wins by Bernard Her- furth in Round 1 and Charlie Richardson in Round 14 cost Bob any chance of repeating. Third place was captured by Norm Rioux, several times champion of this event, with a 12-3 record. Yound Kevin Hollister completed a successful year by placing fourth. A new Boy's champion was crowned. Richard Forgues of Vermont began with a fine 81.2% game and continued undefeated, averaging 66.7%. Brian Smith finished second with 67.0%. Rich's brother Joe Forgues was third with 59.0%. Debby Michaud, former Womens' World champion, swept six games in a double round robin to successfully defend her title. Liz Downer finished second, losing twice to Debby, but she pushed Debby to 88 shoes in the final game before succumbing 52-42. Donna McMeniman pitched her best tournament ever, 53.3%, to capture third spot. Two-time World champion Linda Pateneaude of Maine continued her domination of the Girls' division. Janice Domey finished in runnerup spot and Brenda McNeill edged Dawna Reekie on percentage for third-place honors. 4 The Horseshoe Pitchers News Digest/Special Issue -1980 NEW ENGLAND — (Continued) The adjust pitchers were competing for over $1,200 in prize money, thanks in large part to the generous $500 contributions made by St. Pierre Manufacturing Co., Henry St. Pierre presi- dent, and by Ed Domey owner of Heritage Recreation Center.

  • Winners of 52Nd Annual Socal Journalism Awards Announced
    Winners of 52nd Annual SoCal Journalism Awards Announced A. JOURNALISTS OF THE YEAR A $1,000 CASH PRIZE: BEST IN SHOW: Greg Katz, Los Angeles Daily Journal A1. PRINT (Over 50,000 circulation) Alana Semuels, Los Angeles Times. Judges’ comments: In a year in which no story mattered more than the pain caused by the economic downturn, Semuels nonetheless found fresh and engaging ways to bring a heavily covered story to life. Whether profiling a dying lumber town or a booming community of pot farmers, Semuels brought the economy to life in human terms and took a story often reduced to lifeless statistics and made it viscerally real. Her story about the web of connection linking a handful of the recession’s victims was masterful storytelling. And listen to this lede from the aforementioned pot-growing story: “Education has long been preached as a way to keep kids away from drugs. It’s the walk to school that has Superintendent Tom Barnett worried.” 2nd: Christine Pelisek, LA Weekly HM: Patrick Range McDonald, LA Weekly A2. PRINT (Under 50,000 circulation) Greg Katz, Los Angeles Daily Journal. Judges’ comments: Mr. Katz work uncovering the startling lack of basic civil rights in California’s secretive parole system will leave you speechless. First-class reporting and excellent writing. 2nd: Ryan Vaillancourt, Los Angeles Downtown News. HM: Amy Alkon, Creator’s Syndicate. A3. TELEVISION JOURNALIST Ana Garcia and Fred Mamoun, KNBC News Judges comments: Ana and Fred have created some great, high quality investigative journalism pieces.

Since this book was published the author has located the graves of bl. George Long and wife, Catharina Miller. Both graves are well marked with soapstone tombstones. Dates of birth and death on both tombstones correspond with dates recorded in book. Their graves are in an old ceme­ tery on the present farm of Calvin Gough and lo­ cated in a field some 300 yards west of the home of J. Blum Gough in Yadkin County, N. C., in the Bethel Church Community. It is known today as the Vestal Cemetery. This definitely locates the½ acre of land purchased by bl. George Long in 1787 from his father-in-law, Christian Miller, for a fam­ ily cemetery and recorded in Register of Deeds Office at Dobson, N. C. and mentioned on page 59 in book. This also located the burying ground of George Happus (Hoppes), step father of al. Frederick Long and bl. George Long and their mother Cath­ arina Kern Long Happus (Hoppes). The funeral and burial of both are recorded on page 53 in book. No marked tombstones have been found for their graves. JASPERS.
