Numerous residents of the Blackstone Valley witnessed the crash, as the flaming aircraft in the sky spiraled down- wards into the woods off of what was then consid- ered High Street. Many return to the memorial service each year to tell their story. Current member of the Uxbridge Historical Commission and former Uxbridge Fire Chief Bill Albin had just graduat- ed from Uxbridge High School in 1944 and was working his first-ever job at Prospect Hill Cemetery in Uxbridge, making 50 cents per hour, when he saw the crash. “I heard the roar of the engine with planes flying over head,” said Albin. “I looked up and saw three planes in the air. One turned its nose and started to spiral all the way to the ground. I watched that plane come out of the air — pieces of The B-24 crash site today. the tail and other parts floating down.

BY NICK ETHIER SPORTS STAFF WRITER STURBRIDGE — Defensive play was the difference when the Northbridge High varsity baseball team visited and defeated Tantasqua Regional, 7-1, last Thursday, May 5. The Rams turned in quite a few “web gems” while the Warriors committed about a half-dozen errors, which in turn led to a multitude of unearned runs. “We played well defensively,” said Northbridge head coach John Demagian, as his team dodged the spo- radic raindrops to make the proper plays. “In these conditions, that’s not bad.” The opposite took place for Tantasqua, according to head coach Mark Muska. “We need to make the plays you’re supposed to make, bottom line,” he said. “They [Northbridge] made great plays in the field as well as the regular plays.” The Rams scored a run in the top of the first inning, Northbridge’s lone earned run off Warrior starting pitcher Anthony Pupillo. Koby Schofer led off with a single, stole second base and took third on a groundout by Jake Tricomi. Liam Cunningham then plated Schofer with an RBI sacrifice fly to left field. Marc LeBlanc, the Rams’ southpaw starter, went unscathed through the first two innings before allowing an unearned run in the bottom of the third. The end result was Tantasqua’s Connor McCaffrey plating Jordan Choquette with an RBI double. But Northbridge rallied with two runs in the top of the fourth inning, three in the fifth and another in the Northbridge catcher Brian Iarussi throws sixth to win going away.
