Some observers expected the grumbltngs w•uld seep down to the sta•e Houseand Senate races. Tuesday in Southington proved that the incumbents in thelegislature are safe in their seats, in the races that affected Southington. all theincumbents retained their posts. But seriously, we doubted tlmt the public's re-"cent anger and concern over higher taxes and the U.S. Congress' pexceived prob-lems solving the budget would affect the local and area races.

At the downtown headquarters late Tuesday, reviews were mixed. LocalDemocrats are convinced they are.in the midst of a rebuilding process. TheDemocrats regained cont•l of the Southington Town Council in 1989, and werehopeful they could extend their control to the local seats of the Connecticut Gen-• Assembly.

However, Southington never votes one particular party, because of its largeblock of unaffiliated voters. As long as the incumbent does a reasonably good Job

,and doesn't make any serimm goofs, he or she should return to the State Capi-tol.

On Tuesday, the voters elected former U.S. Sen.Lowell Welcker as governor because of dissatisfaction with the O'Neill adminis-tration.

The state wurke• rallied behind Weicker.

Connecticut's problems continue to grow with a budget deficit as an under-current. Right now, the state has a highest sales tax in the nation. Our gasolinetax is one of the highest in the coum,ry. Weicker is perceived a no-nonsense per-son who can get in there and solve the problems. Does the choice of a third-par-ty candidate mean the Democrats and I•publtcans should take notice?

Not necessary. A third party would have to develop across the entire politi-cal spectrum. They'd have to formulate a plan at the grass roots level. Perhaps apermanent third party will develop to the future.

The celebration o.f the local Republicans was particularly muted because We-ick•r trounced l•wland. Not to mention their boy was defeated by a man they

• perceh• as a turncoat. The Congressman gave up a relatively safe seat to cam-palgn for a state wide office. The anti-Wcicker Republican sentiment in Southlng-ton runs deep as was evident in the catcalls and comments the rank-and-filemade Tuesday night when voters gave a Weick•r a clear majority for victory.

But the local polittcoes will have to acknowledge that Weicker will be gover-nor for the next four years. If legislators with districts in Southtogton don't atle•t act cordia• to him, then Southtogton may end up on the sbort end of the

eets' stick. Any way you look at it, both the Democrats and Republicans willto change their traditional party ways for an unconventional governor. If

they don•t and Weicker cannot work well with the parties, the state could find it-self in a deeper hole in four years.

In light of recent events in theMiddle East, Americans are becomingmore aware of their energy wasttnghabits. The price of off has skyrocket-ed once again, and we must eitherchange our habits, find alternativeenergy sources or pay the price.

Our concern with the price of offinvolves our consumption of gasoline,and home heating off. Any price in-crease is deeply feR. The majority ofimported off is consumed by othermeans however, and any oil usagecan be cut considerably with a few

simple measures.Most imported off is used to pro-

Remember your mother alwaystelling you to shut off the lights andclose the door tight after yourself?

Remembering to do these simplethings will also cut down wasted en-ergy considerably.

In the lighting department thereare new compact fluorescent bulbsthat use one fifth the wattage of anordinary bulb, yet provide the samelighting. They cost more, but they al-so last 15 to 20 times longer than an

The Knights and the Spartans fea-ture identical 6-2 records and Southing-ton will be trying to contain a Maloneyground attack that features the I-2punch of tsiroack Pa•l Young and full-back Ken Armstrong.

Ithink from a fan's viewpoint Maloneywould have to be the favorite only be-cause they're ranked higher."

In last week's win over Bristol East-ern, Southington's scores came fast andfurious as they led 21-0 before the endof the first quarter.

Fall renews our faith in mother na-ture. Like a marker buoy, autumn helpsrestore our belinf in the beauty of NewEngland and reminds us that the de-I/ghts of winter are not far away. Alreadyleaves have fallen to snow country. It isinevitable. Soon winter will be upon us.Skiing? Throughout the region resort op-erators are bracing for the start of the1990--92 season. Soon we shaft be abl•to skl.

In the meantime, we invite you toJoin us in a Light--hearted and whimsical escape from fall-- into the first throngsof winter. All things considered, it beatsraking the leaves.

Imagine for a moment. It's the middleof November and an early season stormhas dusted Vermont. The story is thatyou had planned to finish some yardwork on Saturday but a f•iend emphati-cally suggests a trip North. Who needs tobe asked twice. You grab your rock skistoss your gear into your pack, and headto the mountain. A•er all it s Saturday.Chores can wait.

No matter where you have takenyour first run of the season,whether in Connecticut or Vermont, thewonder of skttog seems inllnitely delight-ful early season. The air somehow seemscleaner, and the sky more beautiful onopening day. At that moment otherthoughts seem sudderfly distant. Busi-ness? School? World polities? They seemsome.how forgotten, skiing. It helps.

Let s put our cards on the table. I•etasted early seasonsnow at a smorgasbord of mountains.Sometimes I searched for the best sn0•Other times I simply went to whatevermountain opened flrsL So my memories ofopening day are diverse. Even now I can re-call a few classic opening days, froq• re-sorts as distant as Crested Butte in Col-orado to Mount Southington here in theNutmeg Alps. And, as I drift. I can almsstfeel the sensation of those first turns.Imagine for a moment. Share the vision. '

It is traditional, of course for somefolks to ignore all good sense on openingday. It's a fact that lots of skiers [good

skiers at that), while determined tospend the first part of the day practicingvarious drills, often succumb to the al-lure of early snow and simply spend theday blissfully gliding from one run to thenext. Some years past I shared an open-ing day at Mount Snow, Vt., withRichard Tingle, currently MountSouthlngton's director of skiing. Now un-derstand, at the time Tingle was an On•

Snow Examiner for the United States SkiCoaches .•sociation and as he reviewedhis various notes, we alternated freeruns, where we simply enjoyed sliding,with runs where we regained our bal-ance. I found the mix ideal. Then too, itis hdpful to ski at a moderate pace. Keepit under snbl•ght until you regain form.

In point of fact, most everyone wantsto execute the perfect turn on openingday. No argument there. But most falksknow that reatistically, the first day onskis is not going be like the last. Takeany sport, and you know that it takespract/ce to regain your form. Whetherthe game is tennis or skiing, it is helpful

to warm--up early season. Perhaps, asyou daydream, you can feel yourself re-gaining your form, as your feet graduallyreadjust to the mountains rhythm. Forsome, it comes more easily than for oth-ers, but the experience is one all skiersunderstand.

Part of the beauty of early skiing, too,is tha•tCt•ots of good skiers show up. Thetruth is that racers from the academies,lots of ski Instructors and coaches, andmany patrollers show up {and show--off)early season. If someone wants a goodrole model, early season brings out thebest.

For a skier, I think there's nothingquite so grand as opening day. And for-tunately for all who look forward to thestart of a new ski season, and who havespent a few moments idly, take heart inthe news that despite world political

alignments, Now England area resortsare clearing their Jets. Remember, Moth-er Nature is no longer on automatic pilot.Snowmaking provides steady snow in-surance. Soon, there will be snow.

EARLY SEASON SKI TIP: By Novem-ber all it takes is a few cold nights, or asudden snowstorm and we can be skiing.One morning you may be eyeing thoselast leaves which Just fell and the nextday shovelling your driveway.

Unfortunately, when skiing does ar-rive though, one cannot simply Jump in-to their bindings and execute those firstturns of the season with the same preci-sion and rhythm that youdemonstrated last spring.

One particularly useful exercise touse on opening day is to deliberately skislowlF. That's right. Slowly. This helps

focus one's attention, and muscles, onthe shape of the turn. Building your skisthrough a series of turns, while movingalong at a crawl, tends to help revitalize

your muscles. In other words, go too fastand you will only "cheat" your turns,which reinforces all those bad ha,bits youworked so long to correct. So, take iteasy, and try to round out each turn.

Torlno also expressed displeasurewith party politics. "I'm tired of the

Returns started comlng in at about8:15 p.m. By 9:30 p.m. Weiclmr Likerswatched and cheered as Mon-ison con-ceded on a black-afid-whtte portabletelevision.

"For people to say it is totally partisan is wrong," Meccariello said. "If wedon't find the guys who are qualified for the position, we wouldn't appaintsomeone Just to appoint a Democrat. But we have very good candidates whocould potentisIly replace existing members."

"I don't care if they replace me," said Hageman, "I Just want to know thatthe3tre replacing me with someone who can do theJob."

Meccariello vmuld not release the names of the Democratic chaIlenge•s. Hesaid it would not be appropriate to do so prior to the council's vote•
