The roads used, on the March to Concord op Wednesday, April 19, 1775, by the Wilmington Minute Men we(e never recorded.

Possibly they marched by what is now Burlington Avenue, but there is nothing to prove that that street existed in 1775. The more probable route was by Chestnut Street and Mill Road, both ot which were in ex- istance in 1775.

The artist, Ann Torrente of Wildwood Street, noted historical artist,

has depicted the column passing the William Butters II House (1683) on Chestnut StYeet. The picture is just after daybreak. At that time, as is shown, there was a barn on the opposite side of the street.

The marchers are not to be identified by individuals, but the man on horseback is the Rev. Issac Morrill, pastor of the Church of Christ of Wilmington. By tradition the Rev. Mr. Morrill was in Bedford on the mor- oing of Concord Day.

In Memory of Doris Traer She was like a fading flower Each day the bloom was less Minute by minute, hour by hour I tried to believe that God knew best

She seemed to sense her time was short That the san had slipped most through the glass But never a complaining sort She was gallant to the last

She fought against consuming odds But when her time drew near She placed her hand in God's And moved on without fear

This sketch is based on the 1974 map of Wilmington, authorized by the Greet and General Court, plus local knowledge.

Only four roads were shown on that map. Ye Andover Road is today Eames Street, Woburn Street and Andover Street Ye Main Road is today Middlesex Avenue.

The dashed lines .depict roads that "were probably in ex- istence. Houses still existing are shown by black squares. Names are shown where known, and men who marched on Concord Day have their names in bold type.

The Men who served

The 27 men who participated in the events of Con- cord, with Capt. Ford, and who marched SO miles are fairly well documented. It is not easy to trace all, but it is easier than to trace men who served in the Militia companies of Wilmington.

Capt. Timothy Walker, who lived where Alden Eames lives today, was popularly thought to have commanded a Woburn company of Militia. Yet a search of the "American Soldiers and Sailors of the Revolution" shows his men to have been Wilmington in origin. A compilation is next to impossible. There are a dozen volumees, and thousands of names.

Jesse Hopkins marched with Capt. Ford. A cousin or nephew named Samuel marched with Walker - and this is not the Samuel Walker who later became a Colonel in the Militia.

Two men named Beard marched with Capt. Ford. They evidently lived in the "thumb" of Wilmington - Shawsheen Avenue - Nichols Street. Three Beard families became a part of Wilmington in 1737. Another purchased the present home of Harold Melzar sometime before the Revolution.

Question: Where did Sgt. Beard live? It is all quite confusing.

The 1975 Bays soccer season opened in Wilmington with the B team shutting out Belmont, 4 - 0. The scoring opened when Paul Sousa took a pass off the left wing from Eric Wood and tipped by the Belmont goalie.

Minutes later Eric Wood took a fine pass from Chris Briggs and walked in for a goal. The final score of the first half was put in by Chris Briggs. Briggs broke up a Belmont pass, danced through the defense, and trickled a shot past the bewildered Belmont goalie.

The only score was put in by half

WILMINGTON YOUTH HOCKEY Mite B (2»-7-3): The B's com-

pleted their season with a hard fought game against Medford which ended in a 2 - 2 tie.

Dayid Fuller opened the scoring early in the first period, assisted by Eric Marshall. Medford tied the score before the period ended. Greg Rogers, assisted by Kenny Richter and Keith Dunnett put the B's ahead before the second period ended. Medford tied the game midway through the third frame to complete the game scoring.

The coaching staff and parents would like to thank all the boys on the team for their wonderful per- formance and fine efforts over the past year and wish them them best of luck oh their future teams.

Squirt BI (24-5-1): The Wilmington Squirt Bis concluded a most successful season by defeating Billenca 2-1. This brought the BI's into undisputed second place in the West Division and second place for the Squirt B League, behind state champs South Boston.

John LaLiberte opened the scor- ing from Ed Harding and Jim Smith at 9:06 of period two to tie the game. Ed Harding scored the winning goal at 7:37 of the third frame from John LaLiberte and Roy Durling to wrap up the season. The team effort was outstanding

as they kept Billenca, the second place team in the east to only eight shots on goalie Ed Laquidara while the BI's offense fired 18 shots at the Billenca goalie.

The team acored 157 goals to 66 for the opposition over the 30 game season. They outshot their op- ponents 775 to 404 and the super goal tending efforts of Ed La- quidara and Bill Redler concluded the season with 2.20 goals against average.

Magic Show at N.I.S. The Wilmington High School

Science Club Magic Show was per- formed at the North Intermediate School on Tuesday, April 15 at 9 and 10 a.m.

The show was developed with the idea of instilling in youngsters a sense of .the excitement, wonder and joy of" science. High School students, dressed in costumes of their own design performed mystifying and exciting ex- periments for elementary youngsters. The spectacular

results of some of the experiments promoted the director of science, Richard L. DeRosa. to call the show 'Science Spectacular."

Over the past several years, the show has created a high degree of enthusiasm and scientific awareness in youngsters and has gained such popularity that the performers have not expanded it to include two junior high schools.

The junior shows have a" different format and stress the technical aspects of science.

James Buck on dean's list James Buck, son of the late

William Buck and Mrs. Barbara Buck of 343 Chestnut St., Wilmington has been named to the dean's list for the fall term at Bab- son College.

"Inequity abounds," he will note, "where abundance should much more abound. Whole nations are poor. Collective poverty demands world attention. Within affluent nations, acute individual poverty exists."

Mr. White will emphasize that progress can be made in solving these problems through understan- ding of the divine economy and the "acceptance of the Christ in bur lives."

A Christian Science lecturer and practitioner from Rumson, New Jersey, he will speak under the auspices of the First Church of Christ Scientists, Lowell arid San- born Streets. Reading.

In 1969 Mr. White became a member of the Christian Science Board of Lectureship and has traveled extensively speaking to public audiences. His local lecture is open to the public without charge.

Attendance has improved, in re- cent weeks, to approximately 83%. in Wilmington High School. This is above the national average (85% to 90%) and is an improvement for Wilmington High School.

Dr. George Eisenberg' and Harold Garrett. the vice principal, have instituted an attendance call program, which seems to be work- ing. They are assisted by four teachers, and two teacher's aides.

Absent pupils, any day, means a telephone call to the borne of the parents, and the results are tabulated for the record.

A letter is mailed to homes which cannot be reached by telephone. It contains a request that the parent contact Mr. Garrett at 6584463. relative to the absence of the pupil. If there is no response an attempt is made to contact the parent at work.

A few pupils. Dr. Eisenberg reports, claim that the school per- mits "skip days." especially before holidays and week-ends. This is not true, he says. The school does pot authorize any absence, not even for hair dressing appointments before the various spring proms and banquets.

The high school principal and Mr. Garrett strongly urge that parents inform the high school if there are to be absences. Coopera- tion in this way will not only reduce absenteeism, but will help to improve pupils' academic averages. Regular attendance helps to promote better grades.

The report cards which will be distributed soon will have added features, according to Eisenberg.

Along with the number of recorded absences from school, there will be a report on the' number of times a student has been absent from each class.

Some teachers are adding com- ments regarding student perfor- mance. In some instances they are urging that the parents arrange for conferences.

It is the intention of the high school administration that the modifications will strengthen school-community programs. Both Dr. Eisenberg and Harold Garrett stress that cooperation between toe community and the high school are essential to the students' welfare.

Wilmington churches, "A Cry for Freedom

An ecumenical service of worship in Wilmington will be the setting for a choral presentation of "A Cry for Freedom." - the music of colonial composer, William Billings.

The special Bicentennial service will be presented twice on Sunday, April 27, at 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. at the Congregational Church. The ser- vice and musical observance of the

}J nation's 200th anniversary of in- dependence will be sponsored jointly by the Wilmington Bicentennial Commission and the Wilmington Council of Churches.

Clergy from local churches will participate along with choir members from several area churches, under the direction of Mrs. Carolyn Stanhope. An in- strumental quartet, made up of violin, cello, and two flutes, will accompany the choirs of the con- gregational singing.

Composer William Billings was born in Boston in 1746. He was a friend of Paul Revere, Sanuel Adams, John Adams, John Han- cock and Samuel Cooper. When Boston was under seige, Paul Revere and William Billings fled to the Whig headquarters in Water- town where Billings "sat down and wept when he remembered his beloved Boston." Although the text of his music is frequently his own. Billings sometimes paraphrased the Hebrew psalmists, applying their ancient wisdom and truth to contemporary times. Often his eloquent lyrics tell his personal reactions to life in New England during the war. "A Cry for Freedom" is a compilation of Billings' musical works edited by Leonard Van Camp.

The setting for the choral presentation will be a service of wroship in Wilmington's oldest colonial church building. Par- ticipating clergy of all faiths will lead in appropriate hymns, prayers, psalms and scripture. The service is being presented

Minutemen From Fr. Page

Church is scheduled to be rung at 2: IS a.m., to alarm the company of minutemen.

Someone representing the Rev. Isaac Morrill will then address the Company, on the common. The original Isaac Morrill was reputed to be quite a speaker, and perhaps the man who will be taking his place will do as well.

Capt. Cadwallader Ford Jr., will then "charge" the Company of Minutemen. Possibly this will be done by Capt. Dave Hill, the pre- sent day Commander.

At 3 a.m. the Minutemen (18 of them) will start on the road for Concord, to duplicate the march of 200 years ago.

others of the company are to march to Lexington, to take part in some of the events there, and then join up with their company in Con- cord, for the parade.

many persons have asked the Town Crier - Will there be a bus? The answer seems to be No. Only a few trains are to go to Concord. The roads will be blocked off ear- ly, to prevent a panic overflow crowd.

About the only way for a Wilmington resident to get to Con- cord is to join the Company of Minutemen, and march.

Testing headlights for direction and illumination is part of regular safety inspection in 32 states and the District of Columbia. Whether it's required or not, it is important for you to have your headlights checked from time to time.

Make sure headlights are adjusted while you have a full, normal load in the trunk and passenger section. Extra weight in the trunk pushes down the rear of the car and raises the headlight beams.

Before making a trip have the headlights adjusted for the load you will carry.

With spring and summer driving ahead, why not have your car checked for safety at WILMINGTON FORD, 275 Main St.. Rt 38, Wilmington, 6684800. Our mechanics and parts people are long-standing employees to assure you of expert service and reliability. Our parts inventory is one of New England's largest-to insure minimum delay in making any necessary repair. Hours: sales, 9-10 Mon-Fri; 8-6 Sat; ser- vice. 7:30-9 Mon-Fri; 7:30-5 Sat.

Helpful hint Adjustable rear shock absorbers help to level a car and

keep headlights level. ~

The Wilmington Mlnutemen ore up to battle strength

■ ■

A BUSY SCHEDULE: For the new recruits of the Wilmington Minute Men. Bill MscKinnon is shown accepting the Pine Tree Shilling. Beside him is Bob Varey.

In back are Ron Whalen, Dave Blackburn and Peter Wicks. Not shown in the picture is George Dahl.

The Wilmington Minute Men are receiving many invitations to march in parades, from Ohio, for instance. They have accepted one from York Maine, but turned down a Memorial Day invitation from Wilmington Vermont.

They prefer to march In Wilmington Mass on that day.

Wilmington residents may now sleep more soundly in their beds. Maybe the British will be marching, this weekend, but the good people of Wilmington need not worry, for the Wilmington Company of Minutemen has now been recruited to full strength, and it will be on the job, zealously guarding against the British troops, during the next few days.

Six new members joined up, last Thursday at the Minutemen head- quarters on Andover Street. There are now 27 persons in the com- pany, officers and men, just as there was 200 years ago, in the march to Concord.

enlistment in the Wilmington Minutemen is not like, say the U.S. Army.

In England a recruit was given a shilling by the enlisting officer. Accepting the King's Shilling, as the phrase was in those days, meant that the individual was now in the King's army.

In the Wilmington Company of Minutemen the recruit is given a replica of the old Pine Tree Shill- ing. Then, having accepted the currency of the Colony of Massachusetts Bay, the recruit became a Minuteman.

The entire company of Minutemen was. there for the ceremony of induction - but there was one hitch. Not one of the Minutemen regulars had with him his own Pine Tree Shilling.

Capt. Hill borrowed, from the editor of the Town Crier, the editor's Pine Tree Shilling. That was how the new recruits were in- ducted.
