the excitement.
Although pitching a one-
hitter, hurler Pam Humphrey
was in trouble most of the day,
allowing nine walks and
striking out seven. After
leaving three runners on in the
first two innings, Harwood
mounted a scoring threat in
the third, only to be denied by
the alert Oxbow defense.
With one out, and a runner
at third, Lumbra who singled
to center in the first for the
only Harwood hit, was at the
plate. She hit a bouncer to
Carbee at third to start the
play of the day. Carhee fielded
the ball cleanly and faked the
runner back to third, then
fired the ball to first baseman
Janine Teeter for the out. Andi
Elwell then broke for the
plate, but a perfect throw
from Teeter to Tena David-
son, the Oxbow catcher,
blocking the plate nicely, put
the tag on Elwell. A great
doubleplay and Oxbow was
out of the inning. Between the
fourth and sixth innings the
Highlanders stranded five
runners in a futile effort to get
on the scoreboard.
One final threat in the top of
the seventh for Harwood had
the hundred or so fans on the
edge of their seats. A pop up to
shortstop Angle Dobbins
marked the first out. Candy
Guyette and Sue Kero then
walked, and advanced to
second and third on a wi!d
pitch. With two runners m
scoring position, ttarwood's
coach had her ninth batter
swining on a 3-1 pitch, flying to
Carhee behind third base.
Another free pass loaded the
bases, with Lumbra at the
plate. A hit would have
brought in the tying runs, but
it wasn't to be. Carbee fielded
a two bouncer just off the bag
and tagged third for the final
out.
For the afternoon, Oxbow
collected six hits. Marsha
Carbee garnered two, with
Humphrey, Teeter, Brooks
and Herman adding one each.
Although savoring the win,

Levi was proprietor of boats

Levi's son Horace had the
local telephone exchange in
his home, and his wife Elvira
worked as the operator from
1944 to 1966. She says that
everyone in the family learned
to operate it, and it was very
rare that they were all gone
away from home .so that they
had to get someone else in.
The cattle on the farm
were sold in 1955, but Elvira

"Old Town Farm" and
renamed it "Maplewood
Farm". Through the years the
place has been famous for its
maple products, especially
during the time of William's
son Dudley and grandson
Arthur. Dudley won the first
prize and producer's
sweepstakes at the Vermont
Maple Sugar Makers' Con-
ventions in 1899, 1902, and
1903. Arthur served as
president of the Vermont
Maple Sugar Makers'
Association from 1912 to 1917,
traveling extensively to
publicize the maple industry.
Most of the Carletons' 3000
sugar maples were destroyed
by the hurricane of 1938.
Arthur's son Harold and
grandson Donald turned their
attention to the development
of a herd of Registered
Holstein cattle. At the present
time, Donald is experimenting
with the process of tran-
splanting embryos from his
highest producing cows. It has
been successful enough so that
he intends to continue. (More
