The team ultimately finished postseason play on a roll, making it all the way to the state tournament. Bob Peladeau, Brian Fish, Al Balasco and Tony Hayes coached the Douglas All Stars. “They won as a team and lost as a team,” said Jillian Carneiro, whose son was a member of the squad. “All players contributed their best skills and effort. They couldn’t have made it this far without each and every player’s participation. There was a lot of talent on this team.” In the Uxbridge Tournament, the team finished with a 4-1 record, defeating Upton, losing to Sutton and then beating Northbridge twice, including in the champi- onship game.

In fact, immigrants from Holland and Armenia and Scotland and elsewhere knew the town as “Whitinsville,” not “Northbridge.” After all, that was where their liveli- hood was. One person who pushed for the name “Northbridge” to refer to the town itself was the late Gerald Gaudette, who headed the Gaudette Insurance Agency. The other point about Gaudette related to his prediction back in the 1970s that the commercial future of “Northbridge” was Route 122. He made that estimate when the Whitinsville business district was expe- riencing problems com- pared to what it had been as late as the 1950s and early 1960s. At the time, Gaudette’s prediction was considered bold. He put up an attrac- tive new building on the southeast corner of Plummer’s Corner in 1981 to back up his faith in what he saw as a future commercial nucleus. Now people take it for granted that Route 122 is burgeoning. At the same time, UniBank has expanded dramatically in the Thomas Mattson photo Whitinsville business dis- trict and local business- Plummer’s Corner has replaced downtown Whitinsville as the commercial hub of Northbridge. men are still hopeful the area will once again become the crowded cen- ter it had been in the first half of the 20th century. But the look of Plummer’s Corner is of ever-growing commerce with the perception of more-than-adequate park- ing space. In spite of that, the Whitinsville business district has created a lot of new parking spaces behind the Pythian Building, although a large number of spaces on Church Street were removed to accommodate a rehabilitation known as “Streetscape.” Although Northbridge developed commerce in a linear fashion along major routes (Church Street and Route 122), Gerald Gaudette was also the first person to envision a nuclear commercial devel- opment east and south of the Webster Credit Union on Route 122. It would extend east on Church Street Extension as far as the Plummer’s Playground, with a new road going north of that point. Meanwhile, there has Ocean State Job Lot anchors the other side of the Shaw’s Plaza. been some development along Route 122 to the The circa-1819 Wing Tavern. south of Plummer’s Corner extending into Sutton, Douglas and for major companies have Federal Savings & Loan Linwood, including the Uxbridge and points obviously done their Association with a new, proposed rehabilitation of beyond, including of homework and pointed to classically colonial brick the Linwood Mill just off course Northbridge itself.

Camaro late to the Muscle Car resurgence, but Chevy has a winner on its hands

By Keith Griffin

We’re in the midst of a mus- cle car resurgence in the U.S. auto market. First on the scene was the Ford Mustang, then we had both the Dodge Charger and Challenger, and finally, we have the Chevy Camaro. For a lot of auto enthusiasts, the best was saved for last. But not every auto enthusiast has been won over by the Camaro. OK, maybe I’m the only auto enthusiast. I’m just not able to proclaim the Camaro as the greatest thing since sliced bread. It’s good, but it’s not great. Leading my complaint list would be the fact that it’s a dif- ficult car to drive because it is lacking in visibility. Its tiny windows and sloping roof fore and aft make it difficult to see where you’re going (forget about stop lights). The 2010 Chevy Camaro is a stunning car that turns heads everywhere it goes. It is totally lacking in interi- or space. I understand produces 304 horsepower and uation where you would want hasn’t seen “Transformers.”) cramped quarters in a sports 273 lb. ft. of torque.

A trusted though, the Camaro is an with an overall length of 190.4 The RS package includes 20" source (Jim MacPherson, acquired taste that just didn’t inches.
