Dangerous incidents
pushed US to require plan
SKY, DIVER for safety improvements
By Laura Crimaldi
GLOBE STAFF

In April, a lineman was injured by a 2,000-

pound weight on the Blue Line. The next day, a
Green Line operator ignored a signal and didn’t
stop for contractors working between Boylston
and Arlington stations. In an earlier incident,
workers gathered without permission on Orange
Line tracks being used by a nearby test train, put-
ting themselves in potential danger.
Redacted MBTA records released Thursday in
response to a request from the Globe show those
workplace incidents were among the concerns that
prompted federal regulators in April to demand
the MBTA improve worker safety on the tracks or
be forced to stop work on the tracks altogether,
which could effectively shut down subway service.
The T shared details about the dangerous epi-
sodes as it faces a Monday deadline to rewrite its
plan for protecting workers from getting hurt on
the job. Last month, the Federal Transit Adminis-
tration rejected the agency’s initial proposal as “in-
sufficient” and called for a revised plan with im-
provements that will be implemented within 60
days.
“We will have a revised workplan by Monday,
June 5, and will meet with the FTA to review that
workplan on Monday,” T spokesperson Lisa Battis-
ton said Thursday in an e-mail.
On Tuesday, Representative Stephen F. Lynch
of South Boston expressed confidence in the MBTA
but said completing the work in two months will
test the agency.
“They’re under a microscope right now,” said
Lynch, a Democrat. “So let’s see whether or not

The first time Taylor Tracy noticed the peculiar purple lights
high above the highway was last July, while sitting in the passen-
ger seat of her boyfriend’s car. As the couple cruised along I-93,
the unusual shade suddenly streaked across the windshield,
painting the road in a vibrant, violet tone.
The street lights that produced the color weren’t flickering or
otherwise malfunctioning. It didn’t look like an accident at all.
Instead, it was as if they’d been color-coded that way for a special
occasion.
“I was like, ‘What is going on here? I’ve never seen that be-

Chemical firms
reach settlement
TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. —
Three chemical companies said
Friday that they have reached a
$1.18 billion deal to resolve
complaints of polluting many
US drinking water systems with
potentially harmful compounds
known as PFAS.
DuPont de Nemours, The
Chemours Co., and Corteva said
they would establish a fund to
compensate water providers for
contamination with the chemi-
cals used widely in nonstick, wa-
ter- and grease-resistant prod-
ucts, as well as some firefighting
foams.
PFAS have been linked to a
variety of health problems, in-
cluding liver and immune-sys-
tem damage and some cancers.
The agreement would settle a
case that was set for trial Mon-
day involving a claim by Stuart,
Fla., one of about 300 communi-
ties that have filed similar suits
since 2018 against companies
that produced firefighting foam
or the PFAS it contained.

No others found

DES MOINES, Iowa — An Io-
wa task force has completed its
search for survivors at the site of
a partially collapsed Davenport
apartment building without
finding three missing people
who are feared dead, authorities
said Friday. The focus has shift-
ed to shoring up the structure so
recovery efforts can begin.
The remains of the six-story
apartment building were con-
stantly in motion in the first 24
to 36 hours after it collapsed on
Sunday, which officials said
posed a risk to rescuers who
were trying to search.
“We do what the building
tells us to do,” Rick Halleran, the
task force’s Cedar Rapids divi-
sion chief, said of the delay in
searching the building.
City officials earlier this week
said that Brandon Colvin, Ryan
Hitchcock, and Daniel Prien
were unaccounted for and had
“high probability of being home
at the time of the collapse.”

No charges for Pence in Justice inquiry
Investigated for
classified papers
at his Ind. home
By Maggie Haberman
and Glenn Thrush
NEW YORK TIMES
WASHINGTON — The Jus-
tice Department has declined to
pursue charges against former
vice president Mike Pence in its
investigation into his retention
of classified documents at his
home in Indiana, informing
him in a brief letter Thursday
night, according to three people
familiar with the situation.
Word that the case would be
closed came days before Pence,
63, was set to announce his
campaign for the Republican
presidential nomination in Io-
wa.
The FBI and the Justice De-
partment’s national security di-
vision “conducted an investiga-
tion into the potential mishan-
dling of classified information,”
the department wrote to Pence’s
lawyer, according to a person
who had read the letter. Based
on the results of that investiga-
tion, “no criminal charges will
be sought,” that person said.
The decision served as a re-
minder of an enormously conse-
quential plotline that remains
unresolved as the 2024 election
season gets underway.

DA asks firms

WASHINGTON POST
An Atlanta-area investiga-
tion of alleged election interfer-
ence by former president Don-
ald Trump and his allies has
broadened to include activities
in Washington, D.C., and sever-
al other states, according to two
people with knowledge of the
probe — a fresh sign that prose-
cutors may be building a
sprawling case under Georgia’s
racketeering laws.
Fulton County District At-
torney Fani T. Willis launched
an investigation more than two
years ago to examine efforts by
Trump and his allies to over-
turn his narrow 2020 defeat in
Georgia. Along the way, she has
signaled publicly that she may
use Georgia’s Racketeer Influ-
enced and Corrupt Organiza-
tions, or RICO, statute to allege
that these efforts amounted to a
far-reaching criminal scheme.
In recent days, Willis has
sought information related to
the Trump campaign hiring two
firms to find voter fraud across
the United States and then
burying their findings when
they did not find it, allegations
that reach beyond Georgia’s

to former President Donald
Trump and whether he sought
to obstruct the inquiry now led
by a special counsel, Jack Smith,
after Trump and his aides re-
peatedly resisted efforts to re-
turn sensitive government doc-
uments. President Biden is also
under investigation by a special
counsel, Robert K. Hur, over the
improper retention of materials
dating from his eight years as
vice president — although
Biden has been far more cooper-
ative with investigators.
A Justice Depar tment
spokesperson declined to com-
ment on the Pence investiga-
tion. But Attorney General Mer-
rick Garland did not deem the
matter serious enough to ap-
point a special counsel in the
case, as he had done for the in-
vestigations into Trump and
Biden, senior law enforcement
officials said.
For Pence, a man who has
made personal probity — and a
determination to defend the
rule of law in defiance of Trump
after the 2020 election — the
core of his long-shot presiden-
tial campaign, the decision rep-
resented bittersweet vindica-
tion, ending an embarrassing
episode that had threatened his
reputation.
From the start, Pence and his
team cooperated with authori-
ties, in stark contrast to Trump,
who defied a federal subpoena
to return materials stored at his
Florida residence and resort,
borders, said the two individu-
als, who spoke on the condition
of anonymity to speak candidly
about the investigation. At least
one of the firms has been sub-
poenaed by Fulton County in-
vestigators.
Willis’s investigation is sepa-
rate from the one at the Depart-
ment of Justice being led by
special counsel Jack Smith, but
the two probes have covered
some of the same ground. Willis
has said she plans to make a
charging decision this summer,

an announcement could come
in early August. She has faced
stiff criticism from Republicans
for investigating the former
president, and the ever-widen-
ing scope suggests just how am-
bitious her plans may be.
The state’s RICO statute is
among the most expansive in
the nation, allowing prosecu-
tors to build racketeering cases
around violations of both state
and federal laws — and even ac-
tivities in other states. If Willis
does allege a multistate racke-
teering scheme with Trump at
its center, the case could test
the bounds of the controversial
law and make history in the

In Januar y, a lawyer for
Pence voluntarily searched the
former vice president’s house in
Carmel, Ind., for documents af-
ter aides to Biden discovered
sensitive material at an office
the president had once occu-
pied in Washington and at his
home in Delaware.
About a dozen documents
with classified markings were
“inadvertently boxed and trans-
ported” to Pence’s home, ac-
cording to one of his aides at the
time, and subsequently re-
turned to the National Archives
and Records Administration.
After the FBI searched his
home in February and found
one additional classified docu-
ment, his advisers continued to
emphasize his cooperation.
process. The statute calls for
penalties of up to 20 years in
prison.
“Georgia’s RICO statute is
basically two specified criminal
acts that have to be part of a
pattern of behavior done with
the same intent or to achieve a
common result or that have dis-
tinguishing characteristics,”
said John Malcolm, a former
Atlanta-based federal prosecu-
tor who is now a constitutional
scholar at the conservative Her-
itage Foundation. “That’s it. It’s
very broad. That doesn’t mean
it’s appropriate to charge a for-
mer president, but that also
doesn’t mean she can’t do it or
won’t do it.”
Among Willis’s latest areas
of scrutiny is the Trump cam-
paign’s expenditure of more
than $1 million on two firms to
study whether electoral fraud
occurred in the 2020 election,
the two individuals said. The
Post first reported earlier this
year that the work was carried
out in the final weeks of 2020,

leased the findings because the

“The vice president has di-
rected his legal team to contin-
ue its cooperation with appro-
priate authorities and to be fully
transparent through the conclu-
sion of this matter,” his adviser,
Devin O’Malley, said then.
Pence and Trump remain in
a legal and political tangle re-
sulting from their odd-couple
White House partnership.
In April, Pence testified for
more than five hours before a
federal grand jury in Washington
investigating the actions of
Trump and his aides in the days
leading up to the Jan. 6, 2021, at-
tack on the Capitol. He had
sought to limit his testimony and
avoid appearing, citing the
“speech or debate” clause of the
Constitution to argue that he was
protected from legal scrutiny.
Trump’s theories and could not
offer any proof that he was the
rightful winner of the election.
In recent days, Willis’s office
has asked both firms for infor-
mation — not only about Geor-
gia, but about other states as
well. Trump contested the 2020
election result in Georgia, Ari-
zona, Michigan, Nevada, Penn-
sylvania, and Wisconsin.
Ken Block, the CEO of Sim-
patico Software Systems, de-
clined to comment on what he
has turned over to investiga-
tors. A lawyer for the Berkeley
Research Group also declined
to comment. A spokesman for
Willis declined to comment on
the investigation. Lawyers for
Trump also declined to com-
ment.
It is unclear if Willis will
seek indictments of people for
alleged actions that occurred
outside of Georgia, such as
those who participated in the
Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the US
Capitol. RICO experts say it’s
unlikely she will do so. But,
these experts said, the law al-
lows Willis to build a sweeping
narrative of an alleged pattern
of behavior to overturn the
2020 election, with Georgia as
just one piece. Evidence and ac-
tions from outside the state,
such as Trump’s statements
from Washington that inspired
some of the rioters and parallel
efforts to overturn other states’
results, could be presented as

sought to prevent Pence from
discussing their private interac-
tions, citing executive privilege.
It is not clear what testimony
Pence provided. But prosecu-
tors were surely interested in
Pence’s account of his interac-
tions with Trump and Trump
advisers including John East-
man, a lawyer who promoted
the idea that he could delay or
block the congressional certifi-
cation process on Jan. 6 to give
Trump a chance to remain in of-
fice.
Pence’s unwillingness to go
along with that plan infuriated
Trump, who assailed his vice
president privately and publicly
on Jan. 6.
He subsequently became a
target of the Trump loyalists
who stormed the Capitol build-
ing that day, with some chant-
ing, “Hang Mike Pence!” Some-
one erected a fake gallows out-
side the building.
Pence, a former governor of
Indiana, faces significant chal-
lenges in his bid for the presi-
dency. He trails far behind his
former boss and Governor Ron
DeSantis of Florida in the polls,
and has made no effort to chan-
nel the harder-edged populist
energies overtaking the Repub-
lican Party.
Instead, he is expected to
pitch himself as a “classical con-
servative” who would return his
party to its Reagan-era brand of
mainstream conservatism.
additional evidence that helps
establish that pattern.
“ The Georgia statute is
broadly written” to allow the in-
clusion of violations of federal
law as well as some other states’
laws, said Morgan Cloud, a law
professor at Emory University
in Atlanta and expert on the
state’s RICO law. “For example,
acts to obstruct justice commit-
ted in Arizona might be rele-
vant if the goal of the enter-
prise, of the racketeering activi-
ty, was to overturn the 2020
presidential election nationally,
as well as in Georgia.”
Cloud added that prosecu-
tors in Georgia must prove only
that two racketeering crimes
occurred under the state RICO
statute, but other facts could be
used to explain the breadth of
an alleged scheme.
Willis’s investigation has al-
ready come under scrutiny as a
test of the application of state
criminal laws to actions that re-
volved around a federal election
— and that in many instances
resembled constitutionally pro-
tected speech. The probe has
prompted a debate, even
among those who believe
Trump’s efforts were improper,
as to whether prosecutors will
be able to prove that Georgia
crimes were committed.
Her potentially sweeping ap-
plication of Georgia’s RICO stat-
ute could amplify those ques-
tions.

US rebuffs cease-fire calls in Ukraine
Blinken says
‘Potemkin peace’
not the answer
By Missy Ryan
WASHINGTON POST
HELSINKI — Proposals to
impose cease-fires or territorial
concessions as means to halt
the war in Ukraine would serve
only to legitimize President
Vladimir Putin’s aggression and
encourage future assaults, Sec-
retary of State Antony Blinken
said Friday as he laid out US
strategy for hardening Ukraine
against long-term Russian
threats.
Blinken, in what officials de-
scribed as a signal address in
the Finnish capital, made a case
for Putin’s massive “strategic
failure” in Ukraine, a debacle he
said has isolated Moscow, weak-
ened its economy, and exposed
the weakness of Russia’s once-
feared military.
He delivered the speech
ahead of an effort by Ukrainian
President Volodymyr Zelensky’s
forces to recapture Russian-
controlled territory in a new of-
fensive, while President Biden
seeks to head off any erosion of
Western support for Kyiv’s exis-
tential fight.
Putin’s February 2022 inva-
sion has upended decades of
stability in Europe and inflicted
staggering losses on Ukrainian
civilians and troops from both
sides. It has also sent shock
waves worldwide, worsening
food insecurity, and injecting a
new, unpredictable element in-
to the great-power standoff.
Amid growing calls for a me-
diated peace from nations such
as China and Brazil, Blinken also
laid out principles for what he
termed “a just and lasting peace.”
Among those principles, he said,
are Ukraine’s territorial integrity,
Russian reparations, and ac-
countability for war crimes.
He rebuffed calls for cease-
fires or concessions of Ukrainian
land in any “land for peace” for-
mulas, prospects he said would
represent a “Potemkin peace.”
“A cease-fire that simply
freezes current lines in place —
and enables Putin to consoli-
date control over the territory
he has seized, and rest, rearm,
and re-attack — is not a just and
lasting peace,” Blinken said. “It
would legitimize Russia’s land
grab. It would reward the ag-
gressor and punish the victim.”
Blinken said the United
States would support negotia-
tions “if and when Russia is
ready to work for true peace.”
While the Biden administration
has at times nudged officials in
Kyiv to show greater openness
to negotiations, it has said it
will not pressure them to jump-
start talks by offering conces-
sions. Those decisions belong to
Ukraine alone, US officials have
said.
“Along with Ukraine and al-
lies and partners, we would be
prepared to have a broader dis-
cussion on European security
that promotes stability and
transparency and reduces the
likelihood of future conflict,”
Blinken said.
B l i n ke n d i d n o t s p e c i f y
whe ther the United States
would support some kind of dif-
ferent process for Crimea, the
Ukrainian peninsula that Rus-
sia has occupied since 2014, or
insist on a full, immediate with-
drawal from Crimea along with
areas seized following the 2022
invasion.
Officials billed the speech as
a blueprint for America’s long-
term strategy for Ukraine and a
counterpoint to a 2018 meeting
that then-president Donald
Trump held with Putin in Hel-
sinki. There, Trump sided with
Russia against US intelligence
agencies’ assessments that Mos-
cow had interfered in the 2016
US presidential election. It was
a potent symbol of Trump’s
friendly approach to Moscow, a
sharp contrast to Biden, who
has described Putin as a “killer”
and spent much of the past two
years seeking to force him off
the world stage.
The setting for Blinken’s ad-
dress was intended to highlight
the changes that Russia’s inva-
sion has brought to Europe, in-
cluding Finland’s decision to
abandon longtime military non-
alignment to join the NATO alli-
ance. While Finland formally
entered the Western bloc in
April, neighboring Sweden’s
membership is on hold until it
is ratified by holdouts Turkey
and Hungary.
The addition of both well-
armed Nordic nations will rep-
resent an asset to NATO as it
seeks to harden Europe’s east-
ern edges against Russia and
signal its readiness to rebuff any
future attack.
Blinken referenced Finland’s
1939-1940 Winter War with the
Soviet Union, saying that Mos-
cow — both then and in its 2022
Ukraine invasion — had invent-
ed a provocation to justify its
plans and then wrongly antici-
pated a quick victory before re-
sorting to targeting civilians.
W h i l e o ff i c i a l s s a i d t h e
speech was not intended to pre-
empt the possibility that West-
ern support for Ukraine might
diminish if Kyiv fails to make
substantial gains in its spring
offensive, public opinion is di-
vided in many NATO nations.

Tanks, F-16 jets part of long-term aid
By Tara Copp
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — America’s top
military officer says training
for Ukrainian forces on ad-
vanced US Abrams tanks has
started, but those weapons
crucial over the long term in
trying to expel Russia from
occupied territory will not be
ready in time for Kyiv’s im-
minent counteroffensive.
The tank training got un-
derway as the United States
and its allies began to work
out agreements to train
Ukrainians on F-16 fighter
jets, another long-sought ad-
vanced system. Those air-
craft would be part of a secu-
rity plan to deter future at-
tacks, US Army G eneral
Mark Milley said late Thurs-
day as he arrived in France.
“Everyone recognizes
Ukraine needs a modernized
Air Force,” said Milley, chair-
man of the US Joint Chiefs of
Staff. “It’s going to take a con-
siderable amount of time.”
The intent is to provide
capabilities for Ukraine in

The US training schedule
is timed to get the troops up

fore 31 of the 70-ton Abrams

tion has promised to Ukraine
arrive by this fall. Those
tanks will make up part of a
force of about 300 tanks in
total pledged by Western al-
lies including Challenger
tanks from the United King-
dom, Leopard 2 tanks from
Spain, and Germany, and
light tanks from France.
The United States and its
allies balked for months at
providing such tanks, citing
the significant maintenance
S A T U R D A Y, J U N E 3 , 2 0 2 3
and fueling challenges the
systems require. Abrams
tanks can burn through fuel
at a rate of at least 2 gallons
per mile, whether the tank is
moving or idling. That
means a constant supply con-
voy of fuel trucks must stay
within reach so the tanks can
keep moving forward.
As with the recent deci-
sion on F-16 training, the US
approval to send its own
Abrams systems was a neces-
sary part of the allies’ negoti-
ations on tanks for Ukraine
so that no Western nation
would be providing the sys-
tems alone, possibly incur-

Russia. In January, the Biden
administration reversed
course and agreed that
Ukraine would get the tanks.

Former prime minister Boris
Johnson said he would provide
copies of his COVID-era

Sunak’s effort to block them.
The Cabinet Office said on
Thursday that it was asking a

judge appointed to lead the in-
quiry. But Johnson — who had
handed the WhatsApps over to
the Cabinet Office — told Hallett

The former premier’s actions
are a challenge to Sunak, who
served as Johnson’s chancellor
of the exchequer until resigning

Assassination defendant gets life sentence
Helped effort to
kill president of
Haiti in 2021
By Gisela Salomon

MIAMI — A federal judge in
Miami sentenced a Haitian-Chil-
ean businessman Friday to life in
prison for his role in helping Co-
lombian mercenaries get weap-
ons to assassinate Haitian Presi-
dent Jovenel Moïse in 2021.
Rodolphe Jaar, 51, is the first
person to be convicted and sen-
tenced in what US prosecutors
have described as a broad plot by
conspirators in Haiti and Florida
to reap lucrative contracts under
a new administration once
Moïse was out of the way.
An additional 10 defendants
are awaiting trial in the United
States.
Jaar, who has dual Haitian
and Chilean citizenship, previ-
ously had been an informant for
the US government and had
been convicted of drug traffick-
ing a decade ago. He pleaded
guilty in March to conspiracy to
Degraded LEDs bringing a purple haze to streets across the country
uPURPLE
Continued from Page A1
The phenomenon, which
some have dubbed “The Great
Purpling,” is caused by defective
LEDs, and comes as cities switch
to the energy-efficient light
source in more public spaces.
But as municipalities make
the environmentally friendly
change, they’re discovering the
flaw in some of the light-emit-
ting diodes that alters their hue
dramatically — and leaves driv-
ers scratching their heads.
Nearly a year after Tracy’s
first encounter, the lights still
glow purple in the same spot.
Officials from the Massachu-
setts Department of Transporta-
tion are aware of the issue and
have identified “seven or eight”
lights in that area that appear
purple, a spokesperson said. All
were installed around 2019.
MassDOT has ordered re-
placement parts that will resolve
the issue. In the meantime, the
agency’s engineers don’t believe
the discolored lights present a
safety hazard.
According to MassDOT, the
defective lights came from an
Atlanta-based company called
Acuity Brands, whose street
lights have been linked to “pur-
pling” incidents in other cities
across the country.
The issue, the company said,
is the result of a defective phos-
phor coating in the street light
fixtures, which was designed to
make the bluish color of the
commit murder or kidnapping
outside the United States, and to
providing material support re-
sulting in death.
Federal Judge José E. Mar-
tínez handed down the sentence
at a 10-minute hearing at the
federal court in downtown Mi-
ami. Jaar received the maximum
sentence he faced despite plead-
ing guilty and pledging to coop-
erate with investigators in hopes
of receiving a lighter sentence.
Rodolphe Jaar received the maximum

It’s not just happening on the

In October, a Back Bay resi-
dent noticed a bulb in one of the
acorn-shaped street lamps along
Commonwealth Avenue was
“bright purple” and “shining
this terrible color into our
homes.” The city fixed it May 17,
according to records.
That same month, a South
End resident posted a photo of
two lamps on Cazenove Street.
One cast a warm, yellowish-
white color across the sleepy
side road. The other was a deep
purple.
For more than a decade, Bos-

ing street lights — including,
somewhat controversially, its
historic gas lamps — with LEDs.
The effort has cut emissions

Poland’s president
urges amendments
to new security law
Says legislation
intended to curb
Russia’s influence
By Monika Scislowska
ASSOCIATED PRESS
WARSAW — Polish President
Andrzej Duda said Friday that
he was proposing urgent
amendments to a law on Rus-
sian influence he signed this
week that drew US and Europe-
an Union criticism.
Duda said he was aware of
objections, including in Poland,
to the law proposed by the gov-
erning conservative Law and
Justice party and was address-
ing them by sending proposed
revisions to parliament.
He urged Polish lawmakers
to act swiftly, but it was not clear
how fast the two-house national
legislature would choose to pro-
ceed.
He insisted the law was need-
ed for the sake of public trans-
parency and also to prevent
Russia from influencing Po-
land’s security.
In its current form, the law
would create a powerful com-
mittee, ostensibly meant to in-
vestigate Russian influence in
Poland. However, critics see it as
primarily targeting opposition
leader Donald Tusk, a former
Polish prime minister who also
served as a top EU official.
Law and Justice accuses Tusk
of having been too friendly to-
ward Russia as prime minister
between 2007 and 2014, and
making gas deals favorable to
Russia before he went to Brus-
sels to be the president of the
European Council between
2014 and 2019.
Critics say the law violates
the Polish Constitution and
could keep government oppo-
nents from holding public office
without full power to challenge
the decisions in court. They say
it could also have a negative ef-
fect on the eligibility of opposi-
tion candidates in a parliamen-
tary election later this year.
Opponents said the urgent
amendments indicated a retreat
by Duda, who holds a PhD in
law.
“It is unbelievable that a per-
son who has a doctor’s degree in
law has not read the bill
through,” said Robert Kropi-
wnicki, a lawmaker with the
Civic Coalition, an opposition
political alliance. “He needed
four days to read it, understand
it, and is now amending it.”
The US State Department
and EU authorities have strong-
ly criticized the law and ex-
pressed concerns about Poland’s
thought MassDOT was com-
memorating an event by adjust-
ing the hue of the bulbs, like
when landmarks were lit up
purple for pancreatic cancer
awareness, or to memorialize
Prince.
“Then I realized it was just
some crazy new LED system
that’s gone nuts,” he said. “As
fun as purple is, it’s not fun
when you’re driving and all of a
sudden run through a purple
stretch and you’re like, ‘Where
am I?’”
Waller, dispirited by the rise
of cheap LED alternatives in
place of neon, is a skeptic of the
energy-saving technology — at
least, while it continues to fail
public tests.
He said the spread of purple
street lights reminds him of
when Citgo Petroleum Corp. re-
placed the neon tubes on its fa-
mous Kenmore Square sign with
LEDs in 2004. In Waller’s view,
it messed with the color scheme.
“It looked like a crazy drunk-
en clown had put makeup all
over it or something,” he said.
“Some of the units would light
magenta, and they would have
to rip it all out and do it all over
again.”
Still, experts said a few off-
color hiccups shouldn’t distract
from the advantages of LEDs,
including lower energy and
maintenance costs, fewer emis-
sions, and reduced light pollu-
tion.
The purpling of I-93 “is un-
World/Region A5
democracy. The 27-member EU,
which Poland joined in 2004, al-
so threatened to take measures
if it became fully clear that such
a law would undermine demo-
cratic standards.
Duda said Friday that his
amendments ensured the law
was reviewed by nonpartisan ex-
perts, that no lawmakers would
sit on the commission, and that
its findings wouldn’t ban any-
one from holding public offices.
He said he was also strengthen-
ing the right to a court appeal
for investigated individuals.
Duda, who is aligned with
Law and Justice, said Friday he
was reacting to the public out-
cry. Law and Justice party leader
Jaros aw Kaczy ski and Tusk
are longtime political rivals. It
wasn’t clear whether Duda con-
sulted the governing par ty
about the proposed amend-
ments.
Party spokesman Rafa Bo-
chenk reacted by saying that the
“main goal of the bill remains
unchanged” despite the an-
n o u n c e d a m e n d m e n t s . He
stressed that the goal was to
“show the truth about Russia’s
covert influences in Poland.”
Duda said, however, that for-
mer Law and Justice treasury
minister, Wojciech Jasi ski,
and Waldemar Pawlak, the for-
mer prime minister, should ap-
pear before the commission to
explain major gas deals they
signed with Russia almost two
decades ago.
The commission is meant to
present a report of its findings
by Sept. 17 and could impose
punishments, including 10-year
bans on officials from positions
that have control over spending
public funds. T he timeline
means the report would come
out not long before the election
expected to take place in Octo-
ber or November.
Members of parliament ap-
proved the law, dubbed by crit-
ics “Lex Tusk,” last week. Al-
though he is allowed 21 days to
consider new legislation before
signing or vetoing it, Duda
signed the Russian influence
measure on Tuesday. The law is
set to take effect effect next
week.
“President Duda has applied
the right of veto against his own
signature,” Szymon Holownia,
head of the opposition party Po-
land 2050, said of the an-
nounced amendments.
Bowing partially to critics
who say the law is unconstitu-
tional, Duda said earlier this
week that he was also sending it
to the Constitutional Tribunal to
review the bill for conformity
with the supreme law.

“But what’s happening here
should not be indicative of the

all the great benefits it does
bring,” he said.

Prepared to sign accord, Biden takes victory lap
WASHINGTON — President
Biden celebrated a “crisis avert-
ed” in his first speech to the na-
tion from the
POLITICAL Oval Office Fri-
NOTEBOOK day evening,
ready to sign a
budget agreement that elimi-
nates the potential for an un-
precedented government de-
fault that he said would have
been catastrophic for the Unit-
ed States and global economies.
The bipartisan measure was
approved by the Senate late
Thursday night after passing
the House in yet another late
session the night before. Biden
is set to sign it at the White
House on Saturday with just
two days to spare until the
Treasury Department had
warned the country wouldn’t
be able to meet its obligations.
“Passing this budget agree-
ment was critical. The stakes
could not have been higher,”
Biden said. “Nothing would
have been more catastrophic,”
he said, than defaulting on the
country’s debt.
The agreement was hashed
out by Biden and House Speak-
er Kevin McCarthy, giving Re-
publicans some of their de-
manded federal spending cuts
but holding the line on major
Democratic priorities. It raises
the debt limit until 2025 — af-
ter the 2024 presidential elec-
tion — and gives legislators
budget targets for the next two
years, in hopes of assuring fis-
cal stability as the political sea-
son heats up.
“No one got everything they
wanted but the American peo-
ple got what they needed,”
Biden said, highlighting the
“compromise and consensus”
in the deal. “We averted an eco-
nomic crisis and an economic
collapse.”
Biden used the opportunity
to itemize the achievements of
his first term as he runs for re-
election, including support for
high-tech manufacturing, infra-
structure investments. and fi-
nancial incentives for fighting
climate change — while at the
same time highlighting how he
forestalled steeper spending
cuts pushed by the GOP that he
said would have rolled back his
agenda.
“We’re cutting spending and
bringing deficits down at the
same time,” Biden said. “We’re
protecting important priorities
from Social Security to Medi-
care to Medicaid to veterans to
our transformational invest-
ments in infrastructure and
clean energy.”
Even as he pledged to con-
tinue working with Republi-
cans, Biden also drew contrasts
with the opposing party, partic-
ularly when it comes to raising
taxes on the wealthy, some-
Army base sheds Confederate namesake, becomes Fort Liberty
No longer Fort
Bragg, it is latest
to be renamed
By Hannah Schoenbaum
ASSOCIATED PRESS
FORT LIBERTY, N.C. — Fort
Bragg shed its Confederate
namesake Friday to become Fort
Liberty in a ceremony some vet-
erans said was a small but im-
portant step in making the US
Army more welcoming to cur-
rent and prospective Black ser-
vice members.
The change was the most
prominent in a broad Depart-
ment of Defense initiative, moti-
vated by the 2020 George Floyd
protests, to rename military in-
stallations that had been named
after Confederate soldiers.
The Black Lives Matter dem-
onstrations that erupted nation-
wide after Floyd’s killing by a
white police officer, coupled
with ongoing efforts to remove
Confederate monuments,
turned the spotlight on the Army
installations. A naming commis-
sion created by Congress visited
the bases and met with mem-
bers of the surrounding commu-
nities for input.
“We were given a mission, we
accomplished that mission, and
we made ourselves better,” Lieu-
tenant General Christopher Do-
nahue, the commanding general
of the XVIII Airborne Corps and
Fort Liberty, told reporters after
the ceremony that made the
name change official.
thing the Democratic president
has sought.
It’s something he suggested
may need to wait until a second
term.
“I’m going to be coming
back,” he said. “With your help,
I’m going to win.”
Biden’s remarks were the
most detailed comments from
the president on the compro-
mise he and his staff negotiat-
ed. He largely remained quiet
publicly during the high-stakes
talks, a decision that frustrated
some members of his party but
was intended to give space for
both sides to reach a deal and
for lawmakers to vote it to his
desk.
White House press secretary
Karine Jean-Pierre said Friday
that Biden was using the occa-
sion to deliver his first address
to the nation from behind the
Resolute Desk in the Oval Of-
fice because “he just wanted to
make sure that the American
people understood how impor-
tant it was to get this done, how
important it was to do this in a
bipartisan way.”
Biden praised McCarthy and
his negotiators for operating in
good faith, and all congressio-
nal leaders for ensuring swift
passage of the legislation.
“They acted responsibly, and
put the good of the country
ahead of politics,” he said.
And he made a renewed
pitch for his governing style,
which he described as less
shouting and lower tempera-
tures after four years of Donald
Trump.
“I know bipartisanship is
hard,” he said. “And unity is
hard. But we can never stop
trying.”
Overall, the 99-page bill re-
stricts spending for the next
two years and changes some
policies, including imposing
new work requirements for old-
er Americans receiving food aid
and greenlighting an Appala-
chian natural gas pipeline that
many Democrats oppose. Some
environmental rules were mod-
ified to help streamline approv-
als for infrastructure and ener-
gy projects — a move long
sought by moderates in Con-
gress.
The Congressional Budget
Office estimates it could actual-
ly expand total eligibility for
federal food assistance, with
the elimination of work re-
quirements for veterans, home-
less people, and young people
leaving foster care.

RNC sets standards to

The Republican National
Committee will require presi-
dential candidates to attract
40,000 individual campaign do-
nors and the support of at least
1 percent of voters in multiple
national polls to qualify for the
first debate with Fox News in

the plans.
The filter, which also re-
quires candidates to pledge
support for the party’s eventual
nominee, are stricter than simi-
lar rules Democrats adopted to
set their own first debate stage
in 2019, when 20 candidates
met over two nights. Democrats
allowed candidates to qualify
either by meeting a 65,000 do-
nor threshold or by getting 1
percent in at least three early
state or national polls.
Republicans, by contrast,
will require both a donor and a
polling standard. The polling
standard requires a candidate
to beat 1 percent nationally in
multiple polls that are deemed
credible by the RNC. One per-
son briefed on the plan said
there may be an option to use
state polls as well if candidates
can get more than one national
poll showing them at 1 percent.
“Debates are not a vanity
project but a critical opportuni-
ty to find the next president of
the United States. If you can’t
find 40,000 unique donors to
give you a dollar and at least 1
percent of the primary elector-
ate to support you, how can you
expect to defeat Joe Biden?”
RNC chair Ronna McDaniel
spokesperson Cheryle Rivas said
Friday.
Fort Polk in Louisiana will be
the next installation to change
its name June 13 to Fort John-
son, in honor of Sergeant Wil-
liam Henry Johnson. The nam-
ing commission’s proposed
changes must be implemented
by Jan. 1.
Several military bases were
named after Confederate sol-
diers during World War I and
World War II as part of a “dem-
onstration of reconciliation”
with white southerners amid a
broader effort to rally the nation
to fight as one, said Nina Silber,
a historian at Boston University.
“It was kind of a gesture of,
‘Yes, we acknowledge your patri-
otism,’ which is kind of absurd to
acknowledge the patriotism of
people who rebelled against a
country,” she said.
The original naming process
involved members of local com-
munities, although Black resi-
dents were left out of the conver-
sations. Bases were named after
soldiers born or raised nearby,
no matter how effectively they
performed their duties. Bragg is
widely regarded among histori-
ans as a poor leader who did not
have the respect of his troops,
Silber said.

officer at the Black Veterans
Project, the base renamings are
a “long overdue” change he
hopes will lead to more substan-
tial improvements for Black ser-
vice members.

“We should not laud them and
hold them up and venerate them
to where every time a Black sol-
dier goes onto the base, they get
the message that this base Bragg
is named after someone who
wanted to keep you as human
property.”
Other Black veterans such as
G eorge Postell Jr., 56, who
served at the base for more than
four years with the 27 th Engi-
neers Combat Airborne Division
before he was injured in a para-
chute jump, were hesitant to em-
brace the change.
“I shared my blood, and I
know a lot of my other brothers
that did the same for the name-
sake of Fort Bragg,” Postell said.
“To me, it will always be Fort
Bragg, no matter what they call
it.”
James Buxton Jr., a US Army
veteran and president of the Fay-
etteville chapter of the NAACP,
supports the base renaming.
Buxton said he has seen the ef-
fects of racism associated with
the base over the years — includ-
ing the killing of a Black couple
in the 1990s by soldiers in the
82nd Airborne who were neo-
Nazis.
But Buxton also called the
new choice of name Fort Liberty
“off the wall.” He said he would
have preferred the base retain
the name Bragg but be redesig-
nated to honor Edward S. Bragg,
an accomplished US lawmaker
and Union general in the Civil
War.

14 th Amendment. President
Biden has said he’d like to ex-
plore the constitutional ques-
tion at another time, when the
nation is not facing an immi-
nent default in which a court
challenge would add to the un-
certainties.
“My hope and intention is,
when we resolve this problem,
I’d find a rationale to take it to
the courts to see whether or not
the 14th Amendment is, in fact,
something that would be able to
stop it,” Biden said on May 21.
Enter a lawsuit filed on May
8 in US District Court in Boston
by the Quincy-based National
Association of Government Em-
ployees, which represents nearly
75,000 employees of the federal
government. The suit challenges
the constitutionality of the debt
limit and argues federal workers
would be harmed if it was
breached because of the layoffs,
furloughs, and lost benefits that
would ensue when the economy
crashed.
“I think it’s a good argu-
ment,” said Harvard Law profes-
sor Laurence Tribe, who be-
lieves the debt limit is unconsti-
tutional.
But there’s a problem, Tribe
said. The bipartisan budget deal
passed by Congress suspends
the debt limit until Jan. 1, 2025,
eliminating the pending harm
to the government employees.

cash assistance for low-income
families through the Temporary

tance and child care, and end

loan payments by August.
One of the biggest alterations
increases work requirements for
so-called able-bodied and child-
less recipients of SNAP — com-
monly referred to as food stamps
— between the ages of 50 and 55.

people in a similar position.

Lawmakers who championed
the debt ceiling deal see it as a
crucial compromise to avert an
economic disaster, raising the
US government debt limit in ex-
change for reining in govern-
ment spending.
But several anti-poverty ad-
vocates questioned why the
$136 billion of agreed-upon cuts
had to come out of the pockets of
the poorest Americans.
“All this is is a vehicle to pun-
ish low-income people,” said Jen-
nifer Lemmerman, vice presi-
dent of public policy at the Bos-
ton food assistance nonprofit
Project Bread.
Americans are already grap-
pling with high inflation, soar-
ing levels of food insecurity, and
the end of COVID-era programs
that expanded SNAP and the
child tax credit. The proposed
changes to welfare will only lead
to instability for even more low-
income residents, said Victoria
Negus, a policy advocate at the
Massachusetts Law Reform In-
stitute.
Currently, adults who are 49
and younger and do not have
children must work or partici-
pate in a training program for at
least 80 hours a month to receive
food stamps for a prolonged pe-
riod. The debt ceiling agreement
would raise that age to 54.
These sorts of work require-
ments have long been popular
among conservatives, and multi-
ple lawmakers believe the debt
ceiling deal did not go far
Speaker Kevin McCarthy had
reached the deal ahead of the
June 5 default deadline.
“There’s a basic principle
that the federal courts, includ-
ing the Supreme Court, will not
give what amounts to an adviso-
ry opinion,” Tribe said. “This is
one of these situations where it’s
like the guillotine. You can’t wait
till it’s about to fall, but if it is
simply a gallows that is out
there and not being used to
threaten anyone, there’s no way
to get a court to give an opinion
about it.”
The union disagrees.
“As long as the debt limit
statute remains on the books as
is, this game of political football
will continue to threaten our
members and the countr y,”
NAGE president David J. Hol-
way said in a written statement.
“We look forward to pleading
our case in court, and to seeing
the debt limit statute struck
down as unconstitutional.”
With some revisions, the suit
could still go on, said Robert C.
Hockett, a Cornell law professor
who is considering filing a sepa-
rate legal challenge with some
average Americans as plaintiffs,
arguing they were harmed by in-
terest rates that increased dur-
ing the debt limit showdown.
The defendants in the Boston
case are Biden and Treasury Sec-
retary Janet Yellen. The US Jus-
tice Department pushed for a
delay of the May 31 hearing af-
ter the budget deal was struck in

enough in imposing them. In a
tweet, Texas Representative
Chip Roy, for example, called the
additions “weak.”
“You cannot escape poverty
without work,” Representative
Dusty Johnson of South Dakota,
a key negotiator of the bill, told
CNN recently. “You just can’t. It’s
got to be a part of the solution.”
But liberal economists ques-
tion whether work requirements
actually lift people out of pover-
ty, or simply cut welfare rolls.
Between 2016 and 2019, for ex-
ample, existing SNAP mandates
booted 35,000 Massachusetts
residents off the program, ac-
cording to an Urban Institute
study of work rules in nine
states. Today about 1 million
people in Massachusetts receive
an average of $188 per month
through SNAP.
“Expanding the rules increas-
es the number of people who can
fall through the cracks, and we
expect tens of thousands be-
tween ages 50 and 55 to lose
their SNAP because of this,” Ne-
gus added. “Negotiating signifi-
cant policy decisions by holding
communities in need hostage is
horrifying. It is death by a thou-
sand paper cuts.”
Still, even as the proposal
would tighten work require-
ments for some people, it would
expand SNAP eligibility for oth-
ers. On balance, the Congressio-
T h e B o s t o n
reached.”
With the crisis past, Hockett
said the Biden administration
could tell the court that it now
would welcome a judgment on
the debt limit’s constitutionality.
Spokespeople for the White
House and Justice Department
did not respond to requests for
comment.
The debt limit was enacted in
1917 to give the treasury secre-
tary more flexibility in issuing
war bonds. It has been raised
routinely dozens of times over
the years until 2011, when
House Republicans used it as a
negotiating tool. The showdown
ended up pushing the govern-
ment to the brink of default and
triggering the first ever down-
grade of the nation’s credit rat-
ing.
An anomaly among major
economic nations, the debt limit
forces lawmakers to vote to raise
the borrowing cap to pay for
spending they already have au-
thorized.
That’s where the potential
constitutional conflict comes in.
The 14th Amendment says,
“The validity of the public debt
of the United States, authorized
by law ... shall not be ques-
tioned.” That creates a conflict
for the president if the nation
hits the debt limit, because he is
required to pay for congressio-
nally authorized spending. Ig-
noring the debt limit law is the
“lesser evil” compared to failing
to pay the nation’s bills, Tribe ar-
gues.
Other legal scholars disagree,
saying the Constitution gives on-
ly Congress the “power to bor-
nal Budget Office estimated that
the agreement would make an
additional 78,000 Americans eli-
gible for the program, because of
expanded access for veterans,
homeless people, and young
adults transitioning out of the
foster care system.
New work requirements for
TANF recipients could also af-
fect more than 39,000 house-
holds in Massachuse tts —
68,000 children among them —
who may be at risk of losing cash
assistance because of more strin-
gent standards for states’ work
participation rates for house-
holds receiving benefits.
But for many people who
qualify for that cash aid, work-
ing is unrealistic, said Naomi
Meyer, senior attorney in the
welfare law unit at Greater Bos-
ton Legal Services.
They live in extreme poverty
— the maximum benefit for a
family of three in Massachusetts
is $783 a month — and are likely
reliant on public transportation,
laundromats, and other time-
consuming necessities that can

row money on the credit of the
United States.” The nonpartisan
Congressional Research Service
said in a 2021 report that there
were “uncertainties” about how
the 14th Amendment’s public
debt clause would be interpret-
ed because it has never been le-
gally challenged.
Republicans and some con-
servative legal scholars have
said it’s ridiculous to claim the
debt limit is unconstitutional.
“To call it science fiction fan-
tasy is an insult to science fic-
tion fantasy,” said Senator Mike
Lee, a Utah Republican and a
former assistant US attorney. “I
predict if it went to the Supreme
Court, [Biden] would lose quick-
ly, nine to zero.”
Still, Senator Bernie Sanders,
a Vermont Independent, and 10
Democratic colleagues, includ-
ing Senators Ed Markey and
Elizabeth Warren of Massachu-
setts, wrote to Biden on May 18
urging him to invoke the 14th
Amendment and ignore the
debt limit so the government
could continue to borrow.
Biden rejected that tactic but
told reporters on May 21 that he
thought he had the authority to
do so. His concern was that if ig-
noring the debt limit were chal-
lenged, the court case might not
be resolved before the default
deadline.
Shai Akabas, the director of
economic policy at the Biparti-
san Policy Center think tank and
an expert on the debt limit, said
the move would have been risky.
“No question, it’s better to
test the legal limits when we’re
not in a situation that could lead

Meyer said, adding this is “never,
never, never” the case. “The ste-
reotype that [recipients] are lazy
is incredibly toxic. And it’s false.”
Meyer describes a client, a
domestic violence survivor, who
was homeless and on welfare
but found a stable place to live
with her children and was deter-
mined to become a nurse. But
she also had to study English
and grapple with PTSD. She en-
rolled in community college but
couldn’t attend full time. Getting
an associate degree would take
years — and doesn’t count to-
ward the 30 hours per week of
work, education, or training she
would need to qualify under fed-
eral rules.
“She’s one of the most hard-
working, earnest people I know,”
Meyer said. “She is a supermom
striving to give her kids a bright
future.”
Another hurdle: child care,
especially for the mostly single
parents who qualify for cash as-
sistance. Not only is day care
harder to come by than before
the pandemic, it’s prohibitively
expensive without a voucher.
Juggling multiple children in
multiple schools, afterschool
programs, and any potential
medical issues doesn’t leave
much flexibility for work, said
Robyn Riseberg, founder of Bos-
ton Community Pediatrics in the

Markey said in a written
statement Friday that a legal
challenge should remain on the
table.
“If our Supreme Court jus-
tices are the textualists they
claim to be,” Markey wrote,
“then the legality of invoking the
14 th Amendment should be
clear.”
Even if the Boston case and
any other court challenges are
ultimately tossed out now that
the debt limit has been suspend-
ed, Hockett said it’s important
to test the legal theory.
“I think the more we keep
this issue alive and the more we
spread the understanding that
this thing is an anachronism
and has got to go, the more like-
ly I think we are to move Biden
to push for that, and other Con-
gress members to push for that,
and maybe we’ll finally bring
this thing to an end,” Hockett
said.
Senator Brian Schatz, a Ha-
waii Democrat, said he’s for any
strategy that works. He first in-
troduced legislation to repeal
the debt limit in 2017 but a bill
has never advanced to a vote.
“I think that the debt limit
does nothing but impose risk on
the American political and eco-
nomic system,” Schatz said.
“This whole thing is stupid and
everybody knows it.”

they’re more likely to need to

Biden bans
drilling at
cultural
site in N.M.
Land is sacred for
Native Americans
By Coral Davenport
NEW YORK TIMES
WASHINGTON — The Biden
administration took action on
Friday to block new oil and gas
leasing on federal land around
Chaco Canyon in New Mexico,
one of the nation’s oldest and
most culturally significant Native
American sites. Interior Secretary
Deb Haaland announced that her
agency would withdraw public
lands within a 10-mile radius of
Chaco Canyon and the area
around it, known as Chaco Cul-
ture National Historical Park,
from access to new oil and gas
leasing for 20 years, following
through on a 2021 pledge by
President Biden to protect the ar-
ea from drilling. The move will
not affect existing oil and gas leas-
es on the land or drilling on pri-
vate property within the radius.
The plan laid out by Haaland,
the first Native American Cabi-
net secretary, came after decades
of tribal requests. It is intended
to underscore Biden’s efforts to
focus on Native American issues
and expand conservation of pub-
lic lands. But it has also generat-
ed opposition from Republicans
and New Mexico’s oil and gas in-
dustr y. The announcement
comes during a week when envi-
ronmental activists were en-
raged by the Biden administra-
tion’s move to expedite a 300-
mile natural gas pipeline in West
Virginia as part of the deal to
raise the debt ceiling.
The Chaco Canyon park, an
area of roughly 30,000 acres in
the high desert mesas of north-
west New Mexico, was estab-
lished in 1907 by President The-
odore Roosevelt. A UNESCO
World Heritage site, it is home to
a vast network of pre-Columbian
ruins. Between the ninth and
13th centuries, the area was a
center of Pueblo culture, with
multiple settlements of multisto-
ry houses and sacred sites. But
for the past decade, Pueblo and
other Native groups have wor-
ried that oil and gas projects
were threatening the park.
While Congress has enacted
some short-term drilling bans
around the park, there has been
no long-term or permanent poli-
cy to block drilling at its edges.
“Today marks an important
step in fulfilling President
Biden’s commitments to Indian
Country, by protecting Chaco
Canyon, a sacred place that
holds deep meaning for the In-
digenous peoples whose ances-
tors have called this place home
since time immemorial,” Haa-
land said in a statement.
This year, Biden created a
new national monument, Spirit
Mountain, in Nevada, insulating
from development a half-million
acres that are revered by Native
Americans. He also restored and
expanded protections for Bears
Ears National Monument and
Grand Staircase-Escalante in
Utah, sites that are sacred to Na-
tive Americans and had been
opened to mining and drilling by
the Trump administration.
The Bureau of Land Manage-
ment has not issued an oil and
gas lease within the 10-mile buf-
fer around Chaco Canyon for ap-
proximately 10 years, and New
Mexico halted mineral leasing
around Chaco Canyon through a
state-level moratorium in 2019. A
federal moratorium on new min-
ing claims has been in place since
January 2022, when the Interior
Department published a notice of
the proposed withdrawal in the
Federal Register. The proposal
was open to a 120-day public
comment period that included
six public meetings and yielded
more than 110,000 verbal and
written comments. That input,
along with consultations with 24
tribal nations, helped shape the
final plan, the agency said.
Oil and gas drilling is a major
component of New Mexico’s
economy. At the time Biden an-
nounced his plans to protect the
Chaco Canyon area, a spokesper-
son for the New Mexico Oil &
Gas Association called the move
“arbitrary” and said it would lim-
it economic opportunities in that
part of the state, possibly for gen-
erations to come. It is unclear
whether the industry will try to
challenge the new protections.

Mass. owes feds $2.5 billion.

Who’s going to pay?

A
s accounting mistakes go, this is a big one.
As reported by the Globe’s Jon Chesto
and Larry Edelman, Massachusetts used
about $2.5 billion in federal money to
fund jobless benefits during the pandem-
ic. Those payments should have come out of the Mas-
sachusetts unemployment insurance trust fund. For
some reason — so far unexplained — that’s not what
happened, and now the federal government must be
reimbursed.
The mistake dates back to 2020 and the administra-
tion of former governor Charlie Baker. But now it’s up
to Governor Maura Healey to make it right. Who will
pay for it? In a statement to the Globe, Lauren Jones,
secretary of labor and workforce development, said the
Healey administration “is determined to provide a so-
lution with the goal of minimizing impact to the Com-
monwealth.” Meanwhile, business groups say employ-
ers should not be responsible.
If the mistake hadn’t occurred, employers — who
fund the unemployment trust fund through assess-
ments — would have footed the bills. There’s an argu-
ment to be made that they still should. That doesn’t
mean sending employers a massive one-time bill to
cover the $2.5 billion right now. The state could issue
bonds to raise the money instead, and then charge em-
ployers fees to cover the resulting bond repayments. In
fact, that’s what the state is already doing, having
ADOBE
raised $2.7 billion to repay federal loans the state took
out to meet the pandemic-fueled surge in jobless
claims; it could borrow $2.5 billion more and charge
more fees to employers.
But that seems more than a little bit unfair. This
was a screw up by the state and the state is ultimately
responsible for it. It also has the cash on hand. Accord-
ing to the Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation, a busi-
ness-backed think tank, there’s about $1.6 billion re-
maining in federal pandemic rescue funds and budget
surpluses. The state’s rainy day fund also has a balance
of about $7.2 billion. You could say the pandemic was
the ultimate rainy day, so using rainy day funds to pay
for it retroactively makes sense.
Besides figuring out who should pay for it, the other
big question is: How did this happen under Baker,
whose calling card was supposed to be fiscal and man-
agerial competence? In reporting on the screw up, the
state Labor Department did not say how the fund mix-
up occurred or why multiple audits failed to catch it. It
was ultimately caught by an outside firm that was re-
viewing the state’s annual financial report. “There
needs to be some answers about what happened in the
prior administration and who knew what, and when,”
Jon Hurst, president of the Retailers Association of
Massachusetts, told the Globe. He’s right. More trans-
parency is required. There should be answers, not for
the sake of blame, but for the sake of ensuring future
sound accounting practices.
It’s true there was a lot of chaos during the early
days of the pandemic. Federal relief money was pour-
ing in and the state was putting new systems in place
to handle the crush of jobless claims related to COVID-
19 shutdowns. Healey is already dealing with another
pandemic-era mistake involving the overpayment of
unemployment benefits. In 2022, after the state paid
out $4.3 billion in jobless claims, some recipients were
told they might not have been eligible and would have
to pay the money back. Most of the overpayments were
waived, but in March, the Healey administration be-
gan the process of clawing back $719 million that it be-
lieves should be paid back. If Massachusetts can de-
mand payback from people who got money they did
not deserve, it should also pay back what it misused
and owes the federal government.
There’s another reason for the state to cover the cost
of its mistake. The surge in unemployment at the be-
ginning of the pandemic was not really of employers’
making. It was the result of harsh, but necessary, pub-
lic health steps that shuttered businesses and threw
thousands of people out of work. It was the right thing

Trying to close the gender pay gap —

60 years after the Equal Pay Act
By Heather Furnas ness school graduates by Princeton Universi- when they are under the care of female phy-

O
n June 10, 1963, President
John F. Kennedy probably
considered the gender pay gap
closed after he signed the
Equal Pay Act prohibiting
wage discrimination on the basis of sex. Yet
his own state of Massachusetts saw the need
to pass the 2016 equal pay law, and even
now, women still earn 14 percent less than
men. Today hope hangs on two state Senate
bills that would require salary transparency
within companies (S.1191) and by industry
(S.1181). Both have been referred to the
Joint Committee on Labor and Workforce
Development.
If research on Danish companies holds
true in the United States, these bills, if
passed, should help bridge the gap. In 2006,
the Danish government mandated compa-
nies with 35 or more employees to report
gender wage gaps. Not only did the pay gap
narrow, but companies under mandate hired
and promoted more women. That’s great
news, but not everyone works for a company.
If we as a society don’t address other factors
that depress women’s wages, the gap won’t
disappear.
A major wage-suppressor is children, at
least for the women who have them. Before
becoming parents, men and women earn
about the same, according to a study of busi-
ty economist Henrik Kleven, but after be-
coming parents, men earn 60 percent more
than women. Mothers often grab jobs offer-
ing flexibility, which also often pay less, an
average drop of 4 percent with each child,
while fathers’ wages increase 6 percent with
each child. Mothers seeking full-time em-
ployment can be hit with a “motherhood
penalty,” a term Stanford University sociolo-
gist Shelley Correll coined after she found
that hiring managers would offer an inter-
view twice as often to childless female candi-
dates as to equally qualified mothers.
Childbearing isn’t the only barrier women
face. Even accounting for mothers’ shorter
work hours and fathers’ greater overtime, the
wage gap persists.
In my own field of medicine, we would ex-
pect an equal average hourly rate for male
and female physicians in the same specialty
— and yet female doctors earn 25 percent to
36 percent less than their male colleagues.
Childbearing isn’t the only
barrier women face. Even
accounting for mothers’
shorter work hours and
fathers’ greater overtime,
the wage gap persists.
The pay gap is widest in the surgical subspe-
cialties, including in my own specialty of
plastic surgery. The male surgeons bill 19
percent more than the female surgeons, so
they earn more. The difference could be that
female plastic surgeons work fewer hours or
they turn down high-value cases, but a 2021
JAMA Surgery study points to a more trou-
bling explanation. Most referring doctors —
especially men — refer patients to male sur-
geons. With one exception: They refer pa-
tients with lower-valued, nonoperative needs
to the female surgeons. The study’s authors
could identify only one significant factor de-
termining referrals — the surgeon’s sex.
The preference for men starts in training.
Male and female medical faculty members
tend to rate male residents higher in almost
every category. But here’s the kicker: Studies
show that on average, patients with diabetes,
heart attacks, and other diagnoses resulting
in hospital admission have better outcomes
sicians. US and Canadian surgical patients
also fared better with female surgeons. Fe-
male doctors are more likely to explore pa-
tients’ social circumstances, collaborate with
colleagues, and follow guidelines — great for
patients but no help in gaining raises, pro-
motions, or high-value referrals.
Everyone, including medical faculty, is
blind to their own unconscious bias, so mer-
it-based compensation systems that include
performance reviews often result in lower
pay for women in the same job as higher-
paid men. Despite available objective perfor-
mance metrics, women who substantially
outperform men often get no better recogni-
tion and few promotions. Astronomers at the
Hubble Space Telescope figured out a way to
work around decision makers’ biases: For
telescope access, applicants filled out anony-
mized forms — no names or pronouns — and
female astronomers saw a dramatic rise in
their reviewers’ ratings.
Even if companies paid men and women
equally for the same job, they often work in
different industries. The manufacturing and
construction jobs that attract men pay more
than the caregiving and service jobs that at-
tract women. Men’s higher pay is often justi-
fied because they are 10 times more likely to
be killed at work, but caretakers carry the re-
sponsibility for the lives of the vulnerable —
babies, children, and the elderly. The issue is
bias more than risk — when a field attracts
more women, pay falls.
It will take time to equalize wages for gen-
derized jobs, but there is plenty to do now. If
we get these things right, Kennedy’s Equal
Pay Act might finally result in equal pay for
equal work.

Can MCAS be improved? Curbed?

Learned from? All of the above?
Enough with the debating
— let’s take a close look
at teaching and learning
It’s a problem when an educational policy
debate sounds the same as it has over the
past two decades. The suggestions offered by
the new Voices for Academic Equity coalition
provide a starting point for a more sophisti-
cated public discussion (“A pro-MCAS voice
emerges,” Editorial, May 27).
High standards, expectations, and ac-
countability are essential but clearly insuffi-
cient. If 20 years haven’t brought us to where
we want to be, then we need to think about
changing things rather than retreating to the
comfort of opposing positions.
The problem is that we are not paying
enough attention to curriculum and instruc-
tion, to teaching and learning. Do we under-
stand the different ways various students
learn? Are we sufficiently focused on skill de-
velopment, engaging content, and applied
learning? Are we helping teachers with what
they need when it comes to classroom man-
agement and effective instructional strate-
gies?
Here’s a proposal: Keep MCAS but use it
to measure learning gain. Break it up and ad-
minister it in 45-minute sessions spread out
over the school year. Use it as a way to help
teachers improve their craft. Don’t eliminate
competition, but take the threat of failure
out of the equation. Then let’s really talk

MBTA reveals details of close calls on tracks

sultant and contractor, studying
safety procedures at other tran-
sit agencies, updating training,
and piloting changes.
The goals of the plan target
workplace procedures for mo-
torpersons, flaggers, track work-
ers, and dispatchers in the oper-
ations control center. The T
wants reliable systems for notify-
ing subway operators and trolley
drivers about workers on the
tracks, improvements to radio
communications, and more
ways for dispatchers orchestrat-
ing subway traffic to keep tabs
on track workers.
The T’s original proposal
called for the agency to complete
about a fifth of the work by early
August and have nearly three-
quarters of the changes in place
by mid-November. Twenty per-
cent of the punch list items were
slated for completion next year
and in 2025. Those tasks include
infrastructure improvements
and implementing audits for
new procedures.
That timeline was too slow,
the FTA said.
“Given the immediate risk to
worker safety on the [right of
way], FTA requires direct and fo-
cused actions,” Joe DeLorenzo,
the agency’s chief safety officer
and an associate administrator,
wrote to the MBTA on May 19.
Stacy Thompson, executive
director of LivableStreets Alli-
ance, a nonprofit transportation
advocacy organization, said pre-
venting the close calls that
caught the attention of federal
regulators requires focusing on
basic principles like training and
procedures.
“It’s bread and butter opera-
tions,” she said Friday. “It’s truly
a back to basics problem.”
Jarred Johnson, executive di-
rector of TransitMatters, an ad-
vocacy group, said the T doesn’t
have much leeway to miss work
deadlines imposed by the FTA.
“That would dramatically im-
pact their ability to continue the
track work,” he said. “I think

city of Boston to come up
with a workable plan,” Margu-
lies said. “It doesn’t matter what
development you do or don’t
want to happen. The ocean
doesn’t care about our politics.
It’s coming anyway.”
Funding for the study came
from waterfront property own-
ers and the state, which last year
allocated $250,000. Another
$250,000 was included in the
House version of next year’s
budget, though not the Senate’s.
That funding proposal is now
heading to a conference commit-
tee, which will start next week.
“We have to really start nail-
ing down and getting more seri-
ous about plans that will prevent
us from being underwater, or
having a difficult quality of life
along the waterfront,” said state
Representative Aaron Michle-
witz, who represents the Wharf
District and chairs the House
Ways and Means Committee.
“The lifeblood of the economy ...
trickles through downtown. And
without a real game plan, not
just from the city but from the
state and from all the interested
parties, we could certainly be
putting that economic lifeblood
at risk.”
The state funding was a key
bridge to resiliency planning,
particularly as Boston’s munici-
pal harbor plan was nullified.
That plan, long debated and
finally approved under former
mayor Mar tin J. Walsh, al-
lowed for an often-critiqued
600-foot tower to be built at the
site of the Boston Harbor Ga-
rage. That plan eventually got
state approval, but had been
blasted by advocates who con-
tended it focused more on de-
velopment than climate-
change preparedness. In 2021
acting Mayor Kim Janey took
steps to rescind it, saying it did
too little to address resiliency
and equity, and it was scrapped
entirely after Mayor Michelle
Wu took office.
Representatives from Wu’s
office and the Boston Planning &
Development Agency declined
to discuss the Wharf District
Council plan or its potential im-
pact on the downtown water-
front, e-mailing a statement that

they are going to work as hard as
they can because it’s really criti-
cal.”
The MBTA has faced intense
scrutiny from the FTA since last
year when the regulator
launched a safety inspection that
found the T’s focus on long-term
projects came at the expense of
day-to-day operations and safety.
It is not clear how the FTA’s
timeline requirements to address
worker safety might affect the T’s
efforts to repair its tracks. Twen-
ty percent of track on the subway
system has defects requiring
speed restrictions, according to
the T’s tracking system.
The FTA detailed its concerns
about worker safe ty on the
tracks and ordered the MBTA to

said: “The resilience plan is sep-
arate from and doesn’t require
an update to the Municipal Har-
bor Plan.”
A likely next step, the city
spokesperson said in an e-mail,
is to “review this plan through
the City’s partnership with the
A r my Co r p s o f E n g i n e e r s ,”
which is studying resiliency ef-
forts across the city — including
a potential storm surge barrier
underneath a future Northern
Avenue Bridge.
The first steps in the Army
Corps’ plan are to meet with wa-
terfront communities and to de-
velop a resiliency plan for Bos-
ton’s five waterfront neighbor-
hoods by 2026. Margulies said
the council’s aim is for its plan to
give the Army Corps a “running
start” at developing its own plan
and budget.
In the near term, the city is
looking at “more immediate
work at Long Wharf,” the city
spokesperson said. Wu has allo-
cated $6 million in the city’s pro-
posed budget to improve resil-
iency at Long Wharf, which now
routinely floods during so-called
King Tides, the waterfront’s
highest annual tides.
The total cost estimates out-
lined in the wharf plan were “eye

Between March 13 and April

RICK MUSIOL
Vice president of external
relations,
New England Aquarium
land Aquarium, called the coun-
cil plan a “pioneering effort” that
requires bringing together mul-
tiple stakeholders.
“We’ve been really hyper-in-
vested in this, because it’s crucial
that we do something proactive-
ly, as opposed to waiting for, say,
some other storm that’s going to
have a monumental and devas-
tating impact,” said Rick Musiol,
the aquarium’s vice president of
external relations. “We’ve got to

workers, records show. The line-
man was adjusting the weight
when a bolt snapped and it fell
on him, according to a redacted
report. The worker, whose name
was partially redacted from an
MBTA report, was taken to Mas-
sachusetts General Hospital by
ambulance. The report didn’t
specify his injuries.
The next day, a crew working
along the Green Line track be-
tween Arlington and Boylston
stations signaled a motorperson
to stop, but the trolley driver
kept going, resulting in another
close call, T records show.
The first incident that caught
the FTA’s attention unfolded on
March 13 at State Street Station,
where workers were inspecting
mentioned specifically in the
new report. The Blueway is “part
of a larger conversation ... once
we figure out what that resilien-
cy effort looks like,” Musiol said.
Some of the Wharf District
Council members have long
been at odds over proposed wa-
terfront development. But the
collaboration can be a model for
other municipalities’ resiliency
plans, said Duna Chiofaro, vice
president of The Chiofaro Co.,
the real estate firm behind the
proposed tower at the Harbor
Garage.
“It’s a necessary step, certain-
ly for this neighborhood, to get
on the same page,” he said.
Bud Ris, chair of waterfront
advocacy group Boston Harbor
Now and senior adviser to the
Boston Green Ribbon Commis-
sion, helped create the Wharf
District Council. In his view, the
plan does two important things:
It says what the city needs to do
between waterfront buildings to
protect the Greenway and the Fi-
nancial District behind it, and it
improves public access to the
waterfront, rather than building
a storm wall that blocks off all
connection.
Federal funding for such
large projects can take decades,
Ris noted, and in the meantime,
sea le vels continue to rise.
Spreading the costs of flood-pro-
tection measures to include the
owners of downtown buildings
could determine “who will bene-
fit from it, and therefore what
responsibility they have to pay
for it,” Ris said.
“The private sector has an ob-
ligation to pay, because it’s going
to benefit from this big time,” he
said. “You’ve got to look at areas
who will benefit inland.”
Ris sug gested creating a
state-managed governance or fi-
nancing commission to oversee
climate resilience efforts — not
just in Boston, but across other
waterfront municipalities —
though, he said, that could be
tricky from a permitting and reg-
ulatory standpoint.
“What sort of entity do we
need to make sure everybody’s
doing their part?” Ris said.

file of girl with heart
ailment before she died
By Valerie Gonzalez
ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARLINGEN, Texas — Bor-
der Patrol medical staff declined
to review the file of an 8-year-old
girl with a chronic heart condi-
tion and rare blood disorder be-
fore she appeared to have a sei-
zure and died on her ninth day
in custody, an internal investiga-
tion found.
US Customs and Border Pro-
tection has said the child’s par-
ents shared the medical history
with authorities on May 10, a
day after the family was taken
into custody.
But a nurse practitioner de-
clined to review documents
about the girl the day she died,
CBP’s Office of Professional Re-
sponsibility said in its initial
statement Thursday on the May
17 death. The nurse practitioner
reported denying three or four
requests from the girl’s mother
for an ambulance.
Anadith Tanay Reyes Alvarez,
whose parents are Honduran,
was born in Panama with con-
genital heart disease. She re-
ceived surgery three years ago
that her mother, Mabel Alvarez
Benedicks, characterized as suc-
cessful during a May 19 inter-
view with The Associated Press.
A day before she died, Ana-
dith showed a fever of 104.9 de-
grees Fahrenheit, the CBP report
said.
A surveillance video system
at the Harlingen, Texas, station
was out of service since April 13,
a violation of federal law that
prevented evidence collection,
according to the Office of Profes-
sional Responsibility, akin to a
police department’s office of in-
ternal affairs. The system was
flagged for repair but wasn’t
fixed until May 23, six days after
the girl died.
Still, the report relied on in-
terviews with Border Patrol
agents and contracted medical
personnel to raise a host of new
and troubling questions about
what went wrong during the
girl’s nine days in custody, which
far exceeded the agency’s own
limit of 72 hours.
of way] safety rules.”
“Please use these events as a
reminder to further increase
your vigilance in [right of way]
protocols and safety measures,”
the letter said. “At the end of
each shift, it is up to each indi-
vidual to ensure that everyone
returns home safely to their fam-
ilies and loved ones.”
The letter said the T was also
imposing new limits on the
number of workers allowed on
the tracks, requiring workers to
clear the tracks in most cases
when test trains are running,
and instituting new training.
During an MBTA board of di-
rectors meeting on May 25, Ka-
tie Choe, the T’s chief of quality,
compliance and oversight, said
the agency is in the midst of re-
training about 10,000 employ-
ees and contractors who are cer-
tified to access the tracks.
About 3,000 people are ex-
pected to complete the new
training by June 15; after then,
workers will only have access to
the tracks if they completed the
program, according to Choe.
Participants will have to dem-
onstrate their safety skills during
a session on the T’s right of way
before being recertified, she
said.
During a meeting Thursday
of the MBTA Advisory Board,
Thomas P. Glynn, the new leader
of the agency’s board of directors
said T customers will likely see
“incremental improvements” in
the near term, but more signifi-
cant changes will take more
time.
“I think people will see a dif-
ferent T a year from now, but I
don’t know if they’ll see a differ-
ent T in two months,” he said.
The FTA’s demands for a re-
vised safety plan for MBTA track
work wasn’t discussed.

Investigators gave no expla-
nation for decisions that medical
staff made and appeared to be at
a loss for words.
“Despite the girl’s condition,
her mother’s concerns, and the
series of treatments required to
manage her condition, contract-
ed medical personnel did not
transfer her to a hospital for
higher-level care,” the Office of
Professional Responsibility said.
Troy Miller, CBP’s acting
commissioner, said the initial in-

Anadith entered Brownsville,
Texas, with her parents and two
older siblings May 9 when daily
illegal crossings topped 10,000
as migrants rushed to beat the
end of pandemic-related restric-
tions on seeking asylum.
She was diagnosed with the
flu May 14 at a temporary hold-
ing facility in Donna, Texas, and
was moved with her family to
Harlingen. Staff had about nine
encounters with Anadith and her
mother over the next four days at
the Harlingen station until her
death over concerns including
high fever, flu symptoms, nau-
sea, and breathing difficulties.
She was given medications, a
cold pack, and a cold shower, ac-
cording to the Office of Profes-
sional Responsibility.
Anadith’s mother told the AP
that she informed staff of her
child’s conditions, which includ-
ed sickle-cell anemia, and re-
peatedly asked for medical assis-
tance and an ambulance to take
her daughter to a hospital but
the requests were denied until
her child fell unconscious.
Karla Marisol Vargas, an at-
torney for the Texas Civil Rights
Project who is representing the
family, said Border Patrol agents
rejected her pleas for medicine
until the day she died.

Armored car robber’s life sentence cut to 35 years
By Shelley Murphy

CONCORD, N.H. — On a summer
day in 1994, 32-year-old Anthony
Shea was part of a gang of Charles-
town bank robbers that carjacked an
armored car in Hudson, N.H., exe-
cuted the two guards, and escaped
back home to Massachusetts with
more than $400,000.
At the time, prosecutors said the

Review of
city’s latest
redistrict
map sought
Plaintiffs cite concerns
that race played too big
a role in second version
By Emma Platoff
GLOBE STAFF
The group of residents and neighborhood
groups that successfully blocked Boston’s first re-
districting map are now taking issue — albeit
much more minor issue — with its second at-
tempt.
The plaintiffs in the federal litigation involv-
ing the city’s political map on Friday asked a fed-
eral judge to review the latest effort for “consti-
tutional sufficiency” and argued that councilors
may have once again improperly taken race into
account while crafting this second map. The
judge blocked councilors’ first attempt after find-
ing that they had likely considered race unduly
in their fall 2022 process.
“Plaintiffs are largely pleased with the new
redistricting map as it is significantly more in
compliance with constitutional requirements,”
attorneys for the groups wrote in a status report
to the court filed Friday. Still, they cautioned,
they are “concerned that the City Council ig-
nored the warnings of this Honorable court and
have once again ‘subordinated traditional race-
neutral districting principles’ … to racial consid-
erations.”
The group first sued the city over the map last
year, asking the court to prevent it from going in-
to effect on the grounds that the council had im-
properly used racial considerations to draw
boundaries. In early May, a federal judge blocked
the map and directed the City Council to craft
another one. The council passed a new map and
the mayor signed it last week.
This time, the plaintiffs are identifying a nar-
rower set of issues with the map, focusing on
two precincts: one in Mattapan on the border be-
tween Districts 4 and 5, and one near Grove Hall
on the border between Districts 3 and 4. They
asked the judge to review those areas in particu-
lar, and, “if this Honorable Court finds that ra-
cial considerations predominated over the deci-
sion to move these precincts,” then shift them
back into neighboring districts.

kills son, 8,

Boy’s mother has been
missing since 2019

GLOBE CORRESPONDENT
NEW BEDFORD — The son of former Boston
Red Sox first baseman George Scott allegedly
killed his 8-year-old son in their home here on
Friday before taking his own life, a little more
than two weeks after detectives investigating the
disappearance of the boy’s mother had searched
the home, authorities said.
The boy was identified as Dante Hazard, Bris-
tol District Attorney Thomas M. Quinn III’s of-
fice said Friday night.
Shortly after 8 a.m., police received a request
to conduct a well-being check at the home of
George Scott III, 54, officials said. The request
was made by a relative who had been unable to
get in touch with Scott, officials said.
Officers arrived to a tragic scene.
“It appears from the evidence recovered at the
scene to be a murder-suicide involving” Scott
and his young son, said Gregg Miliote, a spokes-
person for Quinn. “Mr. Scott, who is believed to
have killed the boy before taking his own life,
was living at the Phillips Road home with the
boy.”
Miliote confirmed that Scott is the son of the
former baseball player, who had multiple stints
with the Red Sox in the 1960s and ’70s.
A white Oldsmobile without license plates sat
in the driveway at Scott’s home on Friday eve-
ning. The shades were drawn closed on the
home’s front windows facing Phillips Road, and
a blue ADT home security sign was stuck in the
ground near the front porch.

friend.

Fire destroys historic Spencer church
Lightning strike
may have been
cause of blaze
By Claire Law
and Adam Sennott
GLOBE CORRESPONDENTS
The historic First Congrega-
tional Church in Spencer went
up in flames Friday after a fast-
moving fire tore through the
building on Main Street, top-
pling its steeple and sending
thick smoke into the gray sky.
The fire was reported
around 2:30 p.m., a period
when powerful thunderstorms
rolled through the Central Mas-
sachusetts town. But it was not
immediately clear if lightning
sparked the fire that quickly
grew to six alarms.
According to the National
Weather Ser vice, thunder-
storms were reported in Spen-
cer between 2:15 p.m. and 3:15
p.m. “ There were definitely
lightning strikes around town
during that period,” meteorolo-
gist Andy Nash said.
Almost 100 firefighters from
about 18 departments respond-
ed to the scene of the massive
fire that destroyed the white,
wood-frame church that stood
in town for 160 years.
“The town of Spencer has
lost one of its most prominent
landmarks,” Selectman Ralph
E. Hicks said by e-mail. “For
160 years it served it’s parishio-
ners and, it’s steeple served as a
reminder to Route 9 travelers
that they has arrived in down-
town.”
Spencer firefighters re-
sponded to an alarm at the
church located at 207 Main St.,
which is also Route 9. There
were no injuries reported.
Crews battled the flames
from multiple angles, shooting
water from aerial ladder trucks
and dousing the sides of the
building with hoses. As the fire
intensified, firefighters set up a
collapse zone around the build-
ing.
Video posted on social me-
dia captured the dramatic mo-
ment when the steeple crashed
into the church.

according to video broadcast by

The steeple contained a cell

vice was knocked out to the ar-
ea, Normandin said.
After the steeple fell, it ap-
peared some walls of the church
also collapsed, according to vid-
eo broadcast on WCVB. Even af-
ter the flames subsided, smoke
continued to pour out of the
burned out church for hours.
Fire crews were to remain on
the scene through the night, of-
ficials said.
The fire is a devastating loss
that.”
Authorities have been inves-
tigating the March 2019 disap-
pearance of Lisa Hazard, the
mother of George Scott III’s son,
Miliote said. Detectives searched
the Phillips Road home about
2½ weeks ago as part of the
probe.
John Reis, 71, who has lived
in the area for more than 30
years, said his wife was walking
their dog that morning and saw
police vehicles parked outside
the home.
“It was weird because, of
course, everybody is curious and
everybody went online but there
was nothing,” he said.

“This is a heartbreaking loss
for our community,” Mary Bak-
er-Wood, chair of the Spencer
Historical Commission, wrote
in an e-mail to the Globe. “As is

Reis was alarmed to see po-
lice back at the house Friday and
was shocked when he learned
that Scott and his son were dead.
“It’s just so sad,” he said.
“How can you take an 8-year-
old’s life?”
Reis recalled “Boomer Scott”
from his Red Sox years, but said
he did not know that Scott III
was his son.
George Scott III had recalled
his father in a Boston.com inter-
view in 2021, when he was pro-
moting the release of an NFT
collection featuring his dad, who
was known as “Boomer” and is a
member of the Red Sox Hall of
Fame.

They attended meetings there
and she also shopped at its
thrift store, he said.
“Me and my wife are dis-
traught over it,” Burnett said.
According to its website, the
church was built in 1863, re-
placing one that had been de-
stroyed by fire the prior year.
The building and land is as-
sessed at $1.5 million, accord-
ing to the town’s website.
State Fire Marshal Peter J.
Ostroskey responded to the
scene, along with a team of in-
vestigators.
The fire marshal’s office sent
a rehab unit to support fire
crews and other first respond-
ers, said Jake Wark, a spokes-
man for Ostroskey’s office.
Ostroskey also deployed a
drone to provide aerial images
of the fire to the command cen-
ter on the ground, Wark said.
State Police assigned to Os-
troskey’s office also responded,
along with fire investigators, he
added.
The cause of the fire remains
under investigation.

said of his father, who died in
2013.
When he was playing minor
league baseball in the 1990s,
Scott III told the Globe of his de-

Tw o d o z e n e l i t e d i v e r s
plunged into Boston Harbor
Friday from towering heights in
the first rounds of the annual
Red Bull Cliff Diving World Se-
ries, delighting a large crowd.
The divers, 12 men and 12
women, leaped from platforms
off the Institute of Contempo-
rary Art, performing intricate
flips and turns for a panel of
judges. The competition is set
to continue Saturday at noon,
weather permitting, and is free
to the public.
As the sun beat down, hun-
dreds of spectators gathered
around the museum, eyes fixed
on the two platforms, 21 meters
above the water for women,
and 27 for men. People clapped
as each athlete twisted through
the air, splashing into the water
at more than 50 m.p.h.
Shayna Keshian, 36, who
lives in the Financial District,
sat on the steps of the ICA as
she held her young son in her
arms. It’s her second year com-
ing to the competition, she
said.
“It’s insane,” Keshian said.
“Knowing how much work goes
into these sorts of things, you
can really appreciate the skill it
takes to do something like that.
And you have to be really
brave.”
Across the steps, Jan
Schocklin, 72, and her hus-
band, Jack, glanced up as a div-
er prepared to jump.
“It’s a little frightening be-
cause I’m afraid of heights, so
watching them do it is amaz-
ing,” Schocklin said. “It’s enjoy-
able to be outside here.”
She watched the diver
spring from the platform, twist-
ing three times before hitting
the surface.

each location, earning the diver
an extra 10 points, Red Bull
said.

competition in 2021. In the
women’s section, Rhiannan If-

has won the series six straight
times.
Those hoping to watch Sat-

Cortez marveled as the athletes
leaped into the ocean with the
Boston skyline behind them.
“It’s very high energy, very
scary and precarious-looking,”
said Walker, 25. “Everyone is
just so amped up to see it hap-
pening. I feel like I’m at the

While Walker and Cortez
said they enjoyed the event,

want to partake.
“Absolutely not,” Cortez, 21,

Brian McGrory received the Ste-
phen Hamblett First Amend-
ment Award from the New Eng-
land First Amendment Coalition
in Boston Thursday night, urg-
ing journalists to “be bold.”
“Do not walk in stocking
feet,” he said during the coali-
tion’s 13th annual awards cere-
mony, held this year at the Tus-
can Kitchen Seaport. “Do not
settle for convention. Make
yourselves, ourselves, heard at
every possible turn.”
McGrory, now chairman of
the Boston University journal-
ism department, said boldness
includes pushing for more ac-
cess to public records that will
benefit readers.
”Do not be waylaid by the ab-
surd charges that they demand
for public records, often under
the guise of a bureaucrat’s time,”
he said. “Do not accept their de-
nials for records that we know
should be ours. Do not tolerate
their silence.”
Coalition officials said that as
the Globe’s editor, McGrory sup-
ported lengthy and costly public
records appeals and lawsuits to
support his staff’s reporting. He
helped oppose subpoenas of his
reporters in civil and criminal
actions in state and federal
courts. And he distinguished
himself from other editors by
publicizing public record battles
and the need for transparency.
McGrory said he was proud
and humbled to win an award
named for Hamblett, a former
publisher of The Providence
Journal. He said members of the
Globe’s Rhode Island bureau
know he’s grown to love Provi-
dence, “a great restaurant town”
with “lots of news down there.”
McGrory said he watched
videos of prior recipients of the
Stephen Hamblett award, and
the general theme of those
speeches fit within a three-act
formula: “Act 1: We as an indus-
try are exquisitely screwed. Act
2: It’s a shame that we are so
screwed because we are in a mo-
ment when our work is more es-
sential than it has been in a long,
long time. Act 3: There are little
shards of hope emerging, so
even though we are screwed, we
should all remain optimistic.”
Industry forces remain chal-
lenging, he said.
“Print is in an irreversible
state of decline,” McGrory said.
“Ruthless private equity part-
ners are more than happy to
strip-mine once proud and vital
news organizations. Add to this
the fact that entire swaths of the
nation seem receptive to the lu-
dicrous pitch that we are the en-
emy of the people.”
But, he said, journalism re-
mains vital during “a time of
conspiracy theories and alterna-
tive facts and flat-out lies.”
Signs of hope endure, he said,
showing that success is achiev-
able. He cited nonprofit news or-
ganizations such as the New
Bedford Light and the VTDigger.
He cited digital readership
growth at the Seattle Times, San
Francisco Chronicle, and Minne-
apolis Star-Tribune. And, he
said, the Globe is leading the
charge at a regional level.
“Let’s accept that this is a mo-
ment in which we are severely
challenged and extremely vital,
and let’s know as well that the
challenges and the vitality are
what is giving us the most hope,”
McGrory said. “We are needed,
and that is almost always a very
good thing.”
Nancy West, founder of the
New Hampshire Center for Pub-
lic Interest Journalism, received
the Michael Donoghue Freedom
of Information Award. And Su-
san Hawes, who waged a suc-
cessful battle for information

ON THE ROCKS Woman allegedly killed by son in

Marlborough hotel parking lot
By John R. Ellement
GLOBE STAFF
An 82-year-old Westborough
woman was fatally injured
when her son allegedly drove in-
to her with a pickup truck
Thursday in the parking lot of a
Marlborough hotel, according
to prosecutors and court re-
cords, the second alleged matri-
cide in Greater Boston this
week.
The body of Nancy L. Uhl-
man was found in the parking
lot of the hotel on Lakeside Ave-
nue around 12:38 p.m., Middle-
sex District Attorney Marian T.
Ryan’s office said Friday.
Her son, Daniel F. Uhlman,
53, was arraigned in Marlbor-
ough District Court Friday on a
murder charge, according to
court records. He pleaded not
guilty and was ordered to un-
dergo a mental competency

A fisherman walked along a jetty by Quonset Point in North Kingston, R.I. “The preliminary investiga-
tion suggests that there was an
altercation in the parking lot
where Mr. Uhlman alleged-
ly physically attacked his moth-
Daniel Uhlman had previ-
ously attacked his mother, ac-
cording to court and police re-
cords. On Feb. 13, 2014, West-
borough police rushed to a
Haskell Street residence where
they found Nancy Uhlman “cov-
ered in blood with stab wounds
to her head and torso and inju-
ries to facial area and left wrist,”
police said at the time. She was
hospitalized with life-threaten-
ing injuries, police said.
Daniel Uhlman, who was
then living with his mother, was
later found walking through
town “covered in blood.” He
was arrested and pleaded
guilty in Worcester Superior
Court to assault with intent to
murder someone over 60 years
old and assault and battery with
a dangerous weapon, records
show.
He was also ordered to not
live with his mother.
According to court records,
Uhlman has a psychiatric histo-
ry and in 2019 was being moni-
tored by the Department of
Mental Health to ensure he was
complying with his medication
Health,” a probation officer
wrote in 2019, according to
court records. “He remains on
numerous medications daily.”
It was not clear whether he
was currently under the agen-
cy’s supervision. Uhlman com-
pleted his probation in 2021, re-
cords show.
In another case this week,
April Monroe, 48, was ordered
on Thursday to undergo a men-
tal health evaluation after being
charged in the strangling death
of her mother, 73-year-old Gail
Gasperini, whose body was
found in Monroe’s Somerville
residence on Sunday.
As of January, Monroe had
been ordered to receive several
antipsychotic medications un-
der DMH supervision, court re-
cords show.
Citing federal patient priva-
cy law, a DMH spokeswoman
declined to confirm or deny
that Uhlman or Monroe were
patients of the state agency.

Shark near North Island Beach in Chatham
By Shannon Larson
GLOBE STAFF
Shark season has arrived.
A great white shark was spot-
ted off North Beach Island in
Chatham Friday afternoon.
The apex predator was seen
about a quarter mile off the is-
land, according to the Atlantic
White Shark Conservancy ’s
Sharktivity app, the third report-
ed sighting since May 20.
The shark was last seen head-
ing south around 1 p.m., accord-
ing to the app, which uses
crowdsourced data points to re-
duce shark “encounters and pro-
mote safety.”
A n AWS C r e s e a r c h t e a m
spotted the white shark, an esti-
mated 10 or 11 feet long, said
Cynthia Wigren, CEO and co-
founder of the conservancy.
“This is the second sighting
that I’m aware of off Cape Cod,
and there was also a white shark
spotted feeding on a whale off
N.Y.,” she said in a statement.
“All three are on Sharktivity.”
It was unclear whether the
beach had been closed to swim-
mers.
T he first repor ted shark
sighting off Cape Cod occurred
on May 20, when one was spot-
ted killing a seal off Stellwagen
Bank.
“We know from detection da-
ta from previous years that this
is the time of year when white
sharks start returning to the
Cape,” Wigren said.
Great white sharks were once
a rarity in New England. But as
the population of seals has
grown so has the number of
sharks traveling to the region
from warmer southern waters.
“As we get closer to the sum-
mer season, it is important to
note that white sharks are mak-
ing their way back to the Cape
Cod coastline,” the shark conser-
vancy posted on Facebook, along
with information on how to re-
main safe as sharks become
more numerous.
Specialists have said that
great whites are most often seen
on the outer Cape and parts of
Cape Cod Bay, especially during
peak season from August
through October. The latest re-
search indicates that sharks
spend nearly half their time
swimming in shallow waters, pa-
trolling for seals.

Rabid beaver attacks swimmer in Hadley
By Travis Andersen
GLOBE STAFF
A rabid beaver attacked a
man Sunday as he swam in the
Connecticut River in Hadley,
authorities said.
Around 6:45 p.m., police re-
ceived a report of a man who
“had been attacked by a beaver
on the Hadley side of the river,”
Hatfield police Lieutenant Clin-
ton Phillips said in a statement.
“He was taken to the Hat-

friends to get to an ambulance,”
Phillips said. “The man suffered

and was taken to a hospital.”

“The beaver was tested at

Health, said by e-mail. “The in-

approach it, but call authorities
like the police, animal and wild-

Osley said that any animal,
“whether a pet like cats or dogs,
or wild animals like foxes,

infected with rabies.”

“The good news is that the
solution to this matter is far
simpler than invalidating” the
map, the attorneys wrote.
It’s not clear what impact the
latest filing could have on the
city’s map, or even the timeline
for municipal elections. Mayor
Michelle Wu told the council
weeks ago that a new map had
to be approved no later than
May 30 to keep the fall elections
on schedule.
But the plaintiffs are not ask-
ing the court to block the map in
its entirety. Glen Hannington,
one of their attorneys, told the

further on the case.
According to the plaintiffs’
filing, “the parties have attempt-
ed to reach a joint status report
but were unable to do so.”
Race is necessarily entangled
with the redistricting process,
which is governed by the Voting
Rights Act, a federal law that
looks to avoid the injustices of
the past by ensuring communi-
ties of color are not disempow-
ered or disenfranchised by polit-
ical boundaries. Mapmakers, for
example, cannot pack commu-
nities of color into so few dis-
tricts that their political power
is limited, nor “crack” them
among so many districts that
their voices are drowned out.

“It was a bit emotional to fi-
nally see it for the last time and
know that we’re the only senior
class that’s going to get to walk
through there again,” Casavant
said.
Casavant said the un-air-
conditioned buses were packed
while the temperature outside
hit 90 degrees, which made for
a sweaty sayonara.
“It was really awesome to go
back to where it all started and
reconnect with all of our ele-
mentary school friends and go
walk through those halls that
you started in when you were
really little,” Casavant said, add-
ing that he was able to recon-
nect with the elementary
school friends he had grown
apart from over the years.
Matthew Kuklentz, principal
of Hanlon Elementary, which is
scheduled for demolition in
February, said a dozen of the se-
niors who attended Hanlon re-
turned to the building after the
tour to continue to reminisce,
visiting with educators who
were there when the seniors
were elementary students.
“They felt like they didn’t
have enough time during the
clap-out to come in and just
talk to the teachers that meant
a tremendous amount to them,”
Kuklentz said.
Flanagan said members of
the Class of 2023 were thrilled
by the idea of the tour, predict-
ing before it started that the
visits would yield “a lot of tears”
leading up to their graduation
ceremony Sunday.
“When the kids graduate,
it ’s not jus t about the high
school,” she said. “It’s about
their whole 13-year experi-
ence.”
T he experience was also
valuable to the elementar y
schoolers, Kuklenz said, all of

saw seniors walk through the
halls in their graduation dress,

preme Court ruling that meant
he couldn’t be sentenced to life
in prison as a career criminal.
During the hearing, the de-
fense played a video for the
judge, showing Shea, his wife,
and other relatives and friends
describing his transformation in
prison, where he has taken col-
lege courses, mentors other in-
mates, paints and runs a cro-
cheting circle of inmates. They
showed blankets and toys he had
crocheted in prison for children
with cancer, and artwork he
painted of Winnie the Pooh and
Marilyn Monroe.
“I have a lot of regret,” Shea
said as he appeared on the video
in an olive-green prison suit, his
voice cracking at times as he re-
flected on his life, how his two
children grew up without him

drug overdose in Charlestown.

son. I did bad things,” said Shea,
describing himself as weak when

Shea in prison for the rest of his
life.
“If Shea is a wholesome,

on August 25? Why?” asked
Dennis Normandeau, citing trial
evidence that his brother plead-
ed for his life before he was exe-
cuted with bullets to the head.
“Could it be the Charlestown
code of silence is still part of his
character?”
He said he had seen social
media posts that suggested Shea
had embraced his celebrity as a
notorious bank robber in the
wake of movies that glamorized
Charlestown’s criminal culture.
Normandeau’s son, Christo-
pher, said he misses his father
every day and Shea should “keep
making hats in prison where he
belongs, unless he can crochet
me back another 30 years.”
A jury found Shea and four
“thereby setting the stage for me
to fully embrace a life of crime.”
He noted, “As a young teenag-
er I wanted to be a gangster and
I was certainly not lacking in
role models for this unfortunate
life trajectory.”
In separate cases from the
1990s, Shea was previously sen-
tenced to 30 years each for a
bank robbery in Londonderry
and an aborted bank robbery in
Wakefield, Mass. Those sentenc-
es were also reduced to 12½ and
13½ years, because of Supreme
Court rulings regarding sentenc-
ing.
“I’m so sorry for the way I’ve
lived my life,” Shea told the judge
just before sentencing, apologiz-
ing for the harm he caused to the
Normandeau and Johnson fami-
lies, and his own. “I feel so sad
for the person I was.”

hat title has to be

from a spiritual,
right?” Such was one
of my first thoughts
upon learning about
“Crossing the Deep,” the final concert
of the Handel and Haydn Society’s
2022-23 season. The program prom-
ised a juxtaposition of Handel’s
“Chandos Anthems” and Black Amer-
ican spirituals. Sacred musical tradi-
tions are flush with water imagery,
and spirituals especially so: “my
home is over Jordan,” “God’s gonna
trouble the water,” “Jordan River is
deep and wide,” etc. I’m likely not the
only one who initially assumed that
“Crossing the Deep” was an explicit
reference to a song. However, upon
Googling the phrase, most of the re-
sults had something to do with this
concert and the inspiration behind it.
So, possibly not the title of a spiritual,
but definitely a poetic and memorable
turn of phrase with multiple layers of
meaning, much like the concert itself.
All at once, the “deep” evokes the
stylistic divide between Handel’s flor-
id Anglican anthems and the orally
transmitted spirituals; the River Jor-
dan; the Atlantic Ocean across which
so many enslaved Africans were forci-
bly transported; the intangible border
between life and death; the tangible
borders between bondage and free-

AUGUSTA, Maine — Maine’s chickadee and
pine cone license plates are poised to fly away, re-
placed by a retro design inspired by the original
state flag which has seen a surge in popularity in
recent years.
The proposed plate borrows from Maine’s first
flag, with a blue north star and stylized green pine
tree against a cream-colored background.
“After 24 years, it’s time for a new design,” said
state Representative Lynne Williams, a Bar Har-
bor Democrat who sponsored the proposal.
The Legislature’s Transportation Committee
voted unanimously Thursday in favor of the new
plates while ordering up tweaks to their appear-
ance. Motorists will be able to pick between the
standard pine-and-star plate, or a plain version
with no artwork. They’ll go into circulation in
2025 and 2026.
Mainers can’t seem to get enough of the old-
school flags, which have appeared on flagpoles in
addition to T-shirts, totes, hats, and other items
popular with tourists.
Interest in the old flag began to rise around the
time of the state’s bicentennial in 2020. Adopted
in 1901, the flag was used for eight years before
being replaced by the current blue flag with a coat
of arms.

Brown, Celtics to deal Jokic and Nuggets

with super-max stress
By Julian Benbow
GLOBE STAFF
Even as Jaylen Brown processed the
early emotions of the Celtics falling into
a 3-0 hole to the Heat, then rallying to
tie the Eastern Conference finals only to
be eliminated in excruciating fashion,
the weight of the impending offseason
already loomed over him.

Brown eligible for a super-max exten-

Finals, and thinking about a five-year
contract that could reach about $290

Brady looking forward to his day here INSIDE

DOUG MILLS/NEW YORK TIMES
Tom Brady will be honored
by the Patriots Sept. 10
By Conor Ryan
BOSTON.COM STAFF
Tom Brady will return to Gillette Stadi-
um under very different circumstances
Sept. 10.
Although the legendary quarterback
called Foxborough home for 20 years, the
Patriots’ season opener against the Eagles
will mark the first time Brady will arrive at
his old stomping grounds as a retired play-
er.
Brady, who announced his second —
and apparently final — retirement back in
February, discussed his plans to return in
September to be honored by the Patriots
during a video interview with ESPN’s Jere-
my Schaap Thursday.
“It was such a kind gesture by [Robert
Kraft], who I’ve been in touch with since
the season ended,” Brady said. “We’ve al-
ways had a great relationship. From the
moment that I stepped foot in Foxborough,
I’ve cherished that opportunity, and I’ve al-
ways felt like I’ve been a member of that or-
ganization.
“I know my football journey took me to
Tampa for three years, which I absolutely
loved, and when that ended, I had the op-
portunity to really reconnect with [Kraft]
on a personal level, and he thought this was
something that the fans would really en-
joy.”
Of course, this will not be the first time
that Brady has made a trek to Gillette Stadi-
um after leaving New England in free agen-
cy in March 2020. He and the Buccaneers
beat the Patriots, 19-17, on Oct. 3, 2021.
“Obviously, I want to go back there and
see the fans,” Brady said. “I want to see my
teammates. I went back there one time; it
was in an opposing uniform, which was a
different type of welcoming, although peo-
ple were very polite, and I had a great expe-
rience.

STANLEY CUP FINAL PREVIEW

Eichel gets his chance to shine in playoffs

ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS — Jack Eichel Stanley Cup Final

didn’ t know what to expect
when the NHL playoffs began in
April.
He just knew he was eager to
experience the postseason for
the first time in his eight-year ca-
reer — and what a time it’s been
for him. Eichel is a major reason
why the Vegas Golden Knights
are in the Stanley Cup Final.
“It’s where you want to be as
a player and [it’s] been taking a
few years for me to get here,”
Eichel, a native of North Chelms-
ford, said. “It’s been a great expe-
rience. It’s been a lot of fun shar-
ing with the guys in the room,
the emotions, winning and mov-
ing on.
“Having your family around,
getting [to] experience with
them, they’ve been with you
your whole life.”
Vegas opens the series Satur-
day against the Florida Panthers.
One of Eichel’s former Buffalo
teammates, Sam Reinhart, plays
for the Panthers.
“He’s such a competitor,” Re-
inhart said of Eichel. “He’s works
as hard as anybody on the
scene.”
Getting the chance to play in
meaningful games was a major
reason Eichel wanted to play for
Paul Maurice (left) and the Panthers prepared to take on Jack Eichel (right) and the Golden Knights in Game 1 Saturday.
the Knights. He didn’t get that
opportunity with the Sabres,
who drafted him No. 2 overall in
2015 behind Connor McDavid.
But the greater source of fric-
tion was the disagreement be-
tween Eichel and the Sabres on
how to treat his neck injury.
Eichel, who had his captaincy re-
moved by the Sabres in Septem-
ber 2021 after failing a physical,
wanted a procedure that had
never been performed on an
BRUCE BENNETT/GETTY IMAGES
NHL player.
The Knights were willing to
grant that wish, trading for
Eichel in November of that year.
“The motivation was to ac-
quire a No. 1 center,” Knights
general manager Kelly McCrim-
mon said. “One of the things
that our scouts really felt strong-
ly about when we acquired Jack,
that was almost a little bit un-
derappreciated, was his compet-
itiveness, and we’ve really seen
that. His physical strength and
his competitiveness have really
been on display in the playoffs.
“Jack was a young captain in
Buffalo. Jack gets here in a room
full of really, really good leaders.
It’s not that we are targeting cap-
tains, but we do target real good
people, some of whom have been
captains.”
Eichel led Vegas with 66
points this season, and his 27
goals were second only to Jona-
ETHAN MILLER/GETTY IMAGES
than Marchessault’s 28. A strong
two-way player, he carried that
production into the playoffs.
His 18 points are tied for
fourth in the league this postsea-
son, and that’s without scoring a
goal in the Western Conference
Final against Dallas. But Eichel
had six goals in the first two
rounds, and even against the
Stars came through with a tre-
mendous backhand pass with

Marchessault was on the re-
ceiving end of that pass. Eichel
twice looked at him before deliv-
ering the assist that stunned the
Stars in the Knights’ eventual
3-2 victory.
“He’s a gifted player, so you
just want to get open when he
has the puck,” Marchessault
said. “I do that pretty well, too,
so we’ve built the connection the
past few months.”
Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy
said Eichel’s game aligns perfect-
ly with the team’s other centers.
“They’re 200-foot players,”
Cassidy said. “Will Karlsson’s
hot right now, but they’ve all
scored and they all can.”
“You know how hard it is to
get here,” Eichel said. “For me
personally, I realized how hard it
was to even make the playoffs.”

max wouldn’t always be the use-
ful tool that the league imagined
came in 2017 when DeMarcus
Cousins — one of the most domi-
nant big men in the league —
was in line for a historic payday.
But rather than commit $209
million to him over five years,
the Kings traded him to the Peli-
cans.
The first sign that players
might not necessarily be swayed
by additional money came two
years later when Anthony Davis
demanded a trade from the Peli-
cans, walking away from a five-
year, $229 million deal on the ta-
ble for a chance to play with Le-
Bron James with the Lakers.
With Brown in line to be-
come the 12th player to sign a
“designated veteran extension,”
he and the Celtics are at a tricky
intersection. Instead of the con-
tract being a culmination for a
player who helped the team
reach the postseason in each of
his first seven seasons, capping
it with a career year (26.6 points,
6.9 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per
game), it has raised questions
about whether Brown wants to
remain in Boston, whether the
Celtics should commit so much
to him, and — most insidiously
— whether Brown is worthy of it.
If the bar for super-max wor-
thiness is winning a title, then
that bar is high. The only player
who had won a title prior to
signing a super-max deal was
Stephen Curry, the most decorat-
ed player to sign one (two titles,
four playoff appearances, two
MVPs, and four All-NBA nods
before the lucrative deal).
Devin Booker and Russell
Westbrook are the only other
players who had gone to the Fi-
nals with the team that signed
them to the extension. James
Harden went to the Finals with
the Thunder but never got past
the conference finals with the
Rockets.
The only players to win titles
after signing super-max exten-
sions are Curry and Giannis An-
tetokounmpo. After a win in
Finals once and the conference
finals five times. The only super-
max player with as many playoff
appearances before signing the
deal was Harden with seven, and
two of those were with Oklaho-
ma City, not Houston.
Some players’ super-max cre-
dentials are more undeniable
than others.
Curry was bulletproof when
he signed his five-year, $201 mil-
lion deal in 2017.
Harden was an MVP and a
five-time All-NBA player who
had gone to the playoffs twice
with Oklahoma City, including a
Finals trip in 2011, and five
times as the centerpiece of a
Houston team before signing a
four-year, $170 million exten-
sion.
Westbrook won MVP, was
All-NBA six times, and helped
the Thunder keep it together af-
ter Kevin Durant left for Golden
State in 2016.
Antetokounmpo and Jokic
were both two-time MVPs and
four-time All-NBA players. Gian-
nis also had Defensive Player of
the Year hardware.
Meanwhile, Devin Booker
and John Wall earned super-max
eligibility with just one All-NBA
honor. Wall is the most glaring
example of a super-max exten-
sion going wrong. Plagued by in-
juries, he played just 147 games
after signing in 2017. The Wiz-
ards traded him to Houston in
2021.
Taking less than the max is
unlikely but not unprecedented.
Rudy Gobert took less than the
full super-max from Utah in
2020 ($205 million over five
years instead of $228 million) to
give the Jazz roster flexibility.
While the super-max might
seem like a binding commit-
ment, teams have been able to
make trades despite the hefty
salaries. The Thunder accommo-
dated Westbrook in a trade to
Houston in 2019 for Chris Paul;
the Rockets moved him to Wash-
ington in 2020 in a super-max-
for-super-max deal for Wall. The
Wizards dealt him to the Lakers
in 2021 and the Lakers this year
traded him to the Jazz, who
bought out the final year of his
contract, allowing him to land
year.
While the microscope may be
on Brown’s super-max eligibility
this year, what makes the Celtics’
situation unique is that Jayson
Tatum will also be super-max-el-
igible next year.
The collective bargaining
agreement allows teams to have
two players on designated veter-
an extensions, but no team has
ever done it. If committing 35
percent of the salary cap to one
player for five years is enough to
discourage some teams, commit-
ting 70 percent to two players
poses a much heavier long-term
burden.
The only team that’s come
close to facing that situation was
the Warriors in 2019. With Cur-
ry and Klay Thompson in their
backcourt, the Warriors were in
the middle of their fifth straight
Finals appearance when Thomp-
son learned that he narrowly
missed third-team All-NBA hon-
ors (which would have made
him super-max-eligible).
Thompson couldn’t hide his
disappointment. Instead of a
five-year, $221 million super-
max deal, he signed a five-year,
$190 million deal. But it kept a
Warriors front office already
navigating one of the most ex-
pensive rosters in the league
from having to make one more
difficult decision.
A super-max contract would
thrust Brown from being the
47th-highest-paid player in the
league next season to ninth in
2024-25. If both Brown and Tat-
um sign super-max deals, the
Celtics will be the only team with
two players with top 10 salaries
in 2026-27.
The Brown/Tatum/Celtics sit-
uation is what was intended
when the super-max was creat-
ed. Two players rose to an elite
level while playing for the team
that drafted them and that team
can now pay them more than
any other in the league.
In theory, it was a best-case
scenario. But falling short of the
Finals has added more super-
max stress than any of them
could have imagined.

points, 10 rebounds, 14 assists) in a convincing Game 1 win.
Jokic, Nuggets cooled off the Heat
uON BASKETBALL
Continued from Page C1
down against the Celtics.
The trio of Duncan Robinson,
Caleb Martin, and Max Strus,
who combined for 50 3-pointers
in the Boston series, made two
on 16 attempts in Game 1. Mar-
tin, who received four of the
nine votes for Eastern Confer-
ence finals MVP, finished with 3
points.
The Nuggets countered Mi-
ami’s defense by attacking the
paint, making mid-range shots,
and being selective with their 3-
point attempts. Denver made 32
of 52 2-point attempts.
The primary difference in
this series for Miami is the pres-
ence of two-time MVP Nikola Jo-
kic. Jokic finished with a triple-
double — 27 points, 10 re-
bounds, and 14 assists — as he
either scored in the paint or
sprayed the ball to open team-
mates for quality shots.
The Nuggets avoided silly
turnovers, pushed the pace to
prevent the Heat from getting
into their set defense, and then
hit 3-pointers or free-throw
jumpers against the zone de-
fense.
“I reminded our group, if
they didn’t know, that Miami
went into Milwaukee and won
Game 1,” Malone said. “They
went into the Garden in New
York City and won Game 1. They
won Game 1 up in Boston. So,
we did not want them coming in
here, taking control of the series
on our court.”
Of course, the Heat endured
a grueling seven-game series and
had to hop on a plane Tuesday to
mile-high Denver. The Nuggets
entered Game 1 with nine days
off after sweeping the Lakers.
They looked like the more ener-
getic team from the beginning,
and led for the final 44:56.
They made sure to exploit
their matchup advantages. The
Nuggets are perhaps the deepest
team in the NBA, and they capi-
talized on Miami’s emphasis on
Jokic and Jamal Murray by

pounding the ball into the hulk-
ing Aaron Gordon, who pun-
ished undersized Gabe Vincent
or Strus in the paint for layups.
Gordon or Kentavious
Caldwell-Pope, a staunch de-
fender, also provided major re-
sistance to Jimmy Butler in the
post. Butler, who manhandled
Celtics defenders at certain
points of the East finals, finished
with 13 points on 6-for-14 shoot-
ing and zero free throw at-
tempts. With Jokic lurking in the
paint, Butler found himself drib-
bling under the basket, chased
by defenders and trying to find
open teammates.
At times he found them, as he
did against the Celtics. The dif-
ference was Miami missed those
open shots Thursday. The Nug-
gets were the more physical
team. They wanted to make a
statement. They matched Mi-
ami’s tenaciousness with tena-
ciousness of their own, and the
Heat were the ones caught off-
guard.
“I definitely think they came
out with a lot of physicality, and
we have to be able to match
that,” Butler said. “They did their
job on their home floor, you have
to say that, but we will be ready.
“We will adjust, and we will
do some things very differently
and come out here and be ready
to give more for Game 2.”
The atmosphere in Denver
was surreal. It’s the Nuggets’
first time in the NBA Finals, and
their first finals appearance
since 1976, when they lost to Ju-
lius Erving and the New York
Nets in the ABA championship.
The sold-out crowd went into a
frenzy before the opening tip.
For decades, the Nuggets have
been trying to build a champion-
ship team — from David Thomp-
son to Alex English, to Dikembe
Mutombo to Carmelo Anthony.
But the discovery of Jokic,
perhaps the greatest second-
round pick in league history, res-
urrected this franchise. The
drafting of Murray and Michael
Porter Jr., and the acquisitions of
G ordon, Dorchester native
Bruce Brown, and Caldwell-Pope
have turned the Nuggets into the
league’s most versatile team.
Jokic is the orchestrator. He
collected nearly half of the Nug-
gets’ assists, then scored 12
points in the fourth quarter
when the Heat made a late run.
Enthusiasm is not Jokic’s best
characteristic. He plays with no
ego. He always makes the right
play.
And despite winning two
MVPs and coming close to a
third, Jokic’s humility is never
wavering. When public address
announcer Kyle Speller calls out
the starting lineup, Jokic is in-
troduced first, not last.
The rest of the team has ad-
opted his selfless style. It has re-
sulted in a 13-3 playoff record
and being three wins from an
NBA title.
“That’s how I learned to play
basketball, and I think it’s really
nice to play,” the native Serb
said. “It’s really hard to guard
when you don’t know who’s go-
ing to attack and how to defend
when everybody is moving, ev-
erybody is doing something. I
think it’s a really nice brand of
basketball that we have, and ev-
erybody buys in.
“I’m not sure that I did that
for us or whatever, but I think
everybody contributed and ev-
erybody accepted it.”

starter was to be determined,

Tanner Houck will take the

Red Sox officials felt this
move would be better from a
medical perspective because of
the toll having no offdays over a
near three-week span along
with the impact sleep and late-
night flights can have on player
performance. After Monday’s
game, the Sox will fly to Cleve-
land to open a road trip.

tative, said he liked the double-
header and preferred the chance
to relax.
Rob Refsnyder agreed and
pointed to the mental load play-
ing day-after-day takes. The out-
fielder compared it to the anxi-
ety, stress, and excitement of
having a big day at work.
“There’s no real break,” he
said. “Whether you had a game-
winning hit, struck out, or made
an error, you have to do it all
over again the next day.”

“There’s a lot of standing, so
it’s not as strenuous on the body
as basketball or football or other
sports,” he said. “But just the
pressure to perform every day,
all those emotions, they kind of
take a toll.”
Refsnyder noted these deci-
sions could become more fre-

that relatively standard diagno-
sis suggests. He said he under-
went not only an MRI but also a
CT scan, and said more tests
would follow before he gets a
definitive diagnosis in the next
five to seven days.
That being the case, Sale said
he wasn’t even contemplating
whether his absence from the
Sox rotation might be for the
15-day minimum required by
his placement on the injured
list. At this point, he has con-
fronted too many injuries while
with the Red Sox to assume the
best.
This is now the sixth straight
year in which Sale has been on
the injured list. He missed near-
ly two months in 2018 with
shoulder inflammation (Sale
characterized this injury as less
severe than that one); the last
six weeks of 2019 with elbow in-
flammation; all of 2020 and
much of 2021 due to Tommy
John surgery and its recovery;
three months with a stress frac-
ture in his right ribcage enter-
ing 2022; a broken pinkie from
a comebacker once he returned;
and a broken wrist from a bike
accident as he rehabbed from
the broken digit.
“I would love for this to be a
week and a half or two weeks or
whatever it is, but again, unfor-
tunately I’ve been through this
all too many times to know that
This is the sixth straight year in which Chris Sale has been on the injured list. “Just kind of a
gut punch,” he said. “I felt like I was over the hump. I felt like I was back to being myself.”
putting too much hard focus —
or a hard date — it’s not going to
be fair to me and it’s not going
to be fair to the training staff,”
said Sale. “I obviously want to
cover all the bases, check all the
boxes, and get all the informa-
tion I can before we say, this is
exactly what it is, this is exactly
how we’re going to treat it, and
this is the timeline. I want to
give you guys the 100 percent
truth when I get that, and I just
can’t give you that right now be-
cause I don’t have it.”
Sale did say there was no ex-
pectation he’d require shoulder
surgery. He also said the pain
emerged on one pitch in the sec-
ond inning of Thursday’s game,
and got progressively worse
through the third and fourth in-
nings.
“First inning was great. Sec-
ond inning was kind of when it
started happening. Third in-
WINSLOW TOWNSON/GETTY IMAGES
ning was not very good,” said
Sale, noting that he was only
throwing at 91 miles per hour
even when working with maxi-
mum effort. “And then that
fourth inning, that was the one
that did it in.”
Beyond that description of
the injury’s origins, the only cer-
tainty Sale — in the fourth sea-
son of a five-year, $145 million
extension he signed in spring
training in 2019 — could relay
was his sense of devastation.
Just as he’d started to dominate
again, recovering from an 8.22
ERA through his first five starts
t o p o s t a 2 . 2 5 E RA w i t h 4 1
strikeouts and five walks over
his last six outings, the 34-year-
old is left once again to contem-
plate his fragility. Dismay per-
meated the entirety of his eight-
minute media session.
“Obviously, a hit.”
“Obviously not the situation
you want to be in, for sure.”
“It sucks. I was kind of get-
ting used to sitting in front of
you guys, talking about good
stuff. It’s been a rocky road. I
felt like I was over the hump. I
really did. I felt like I was back
to being myself. So when some-
thing like this happens, it’s de-
flating.”
“Just kind of a gut punch. I
worked really hard — a lot of
people worked really hard — for
me to get to this spot. It’s tough
being a disappointment again.”
“It’s not good sitting here
talking about it, that’s for sure.”
Obviously, the consequences
for the Sox of Sale’s absence —
at a time when he once again re-
sembled a staff anchor — are
significant. Though just over
one-third of the way into their
schedule and in possession of a
respectable 29-27 record, the
Sox are in a perilous position.
They entered Friday night
not only 10 games behind the
Rays in the AL East but also lag-
ging well behind the Orioles (6
games), Yankees (4 games), and
Astros (4 games) in the AL wild
card chase. Through 56 games,
Fangraphs pegged the team’s
playoff odds at just 18.4 per-
cent, while Baseball-Refer-
ence.com gave the Sox a 9.4 per-
cent chance of reaching the
postseason.
To defy such projections, the
team will need an incredible
number of things to break its
way. The absence of Sale repre-
sents the absolute opposite of
that — especially given the
somewhat ominous overtones
of the requirement for not just
an MRI but also a CT scan and
additional tests.
Sale has learned that will-
power is insufficient to alter a
recovery timeline. But the pitch-
er, in a familiar refrain heard in
each of the last five years,
vowed that he will do every-
thing in his power to get back as
the best pitcher he can be.
“If there’s anything I can
prove it’s that you’re not going
to keep me down,” said Sale.
“You knock me down, I get back
up. This obviously is not where I
want to be, but at least if there’s
somebody out there watching,
never give up. I’m just going to
keep rolling.
“I’ve been through this [ex-
pletive] and back, and now I’m
in the [expletive] again. And I’m
going to be back. That’s all I can
do. That’s all I know.”

Red Sox place Sale on injured list because of shoulder inflammation

down I get back up,” Sale said
Friday, before the Sox were
rained out against the Rays.
“I’ve been through this [exple-
tive] and back. And I’m in the
[expletive] again. And I’m going
to be back.”
Sale said he first felt some-
thing in the shoulder on a pitch
in the second inning.
The news adds to the list of
injuries Sale has endured over
the past four-plus years, begin-
ning in 2019 when he went on
the injured list in August and
ultimately underwent Tommy
John surgery in the spring of
2020. Sale made just 11 starts
in 2021-22 following rehabilita-
tion for the elbow as well as a
broken rib, pinky, and wrist.
This season, Sale had taken all
11 of his turns in the rotation.
He got off to a rough start
this year, compiling an 8.22
ERA over his first five starts.
However, he compiled a 2.23
ERA across his next five starts
before Thursday, a sign of opti-
mism for the Sox who need the
ace version of Sale in their pur-
suit of a postseason berth.
Now, that must wait again.
The club reinstated Corey
Kluber from the paternity list.
There’s a strong chance the
righthander will start the sec-
ond game of Saturday’s double-
header, and he is also an option
to rejoin the rotation after a re-
cent demotion to the bullpen.
. . .
Christian Arroyo (hamstring
strain) continued his rehab
stint in the minors by playing
shortstop on Friday for Triple A
Worcester in Louisville, Ky. Al-
though Arroyo has had a histo-
ry of injuries, including lower-
body ailments, the Red Sox will
need the infielder to fill in at the
spot given their lack of depth.
“He has to,” Cora said. “We
need versatility. He has to play
second, short, and third. He has
to move around because of
where we’re at roster-wise now.”
The Red Sox will assess Ar-
royo’s progress Saturday at Fen-
way and try to determine when
he might be able to return to big
league action.
Adam Duvall (wrist fracture)
also played for the WooSox, as
the center fielder; he will con-
tinue to rehab with that club.
. . .
The Red Sox were sched-
uled, along with the other MLB
organization hosting games, to
recognize Lou Gehrig Day for
those who have battled ALS and
are currently fighting the ner-
vous system disease. John and
Nancy Frates were present at
Fenway prior to the game’s
postponement. Their son, Pete
Frates, the former Boston Col-
lege player who died of the dis-
ease in 2019, inspired the Ice
Bucket Challenge that, accord-
ing to petefrates.com, has
raised $220 million for ALS re-
search.

FRENCH OPEN
Djokovic laments
all the negative
reactions of fans
By Howard Fendrich
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — Novak Djokovic
makes no secret of the way he
loves to feed off negativity dur-
ing a tennis match. Doesn’t real-
ly matter whether he’s ahead or
behind on the scoreboard. The
guy simply finds motivation and
inspiration from all manner of
slights, real and perceived.
Maybe it’s how a chair um-
pire is officiating that particular
day . . . or the way Djokovic’s en-
tourage is sitting in place in the
stands instead of rising to en-
courage him . . . or the criticism
he receives for wading into a po-
litical issue — all of which al-
ready have happened during
this French Open.
Or maybe it’s how he’s treat-
ed by the spectators who, as
they did on Friday during Djok-
ovic’s 7-6 (7-4), 7-6 (7-5), 6-2 vic-
tory over 29th-seeded Alejandro
Davidovich Fokina in the third
round at Roland Garros, get on
his case and jeer him for seem-
ingly no good reason at all.
Which is what happened at
Court Philippe Chatrier during
the longest three-set Grand
Slam match of the 22-time ma-
jor champion Djokovic’s long
and distinguished career, clock-
ing in at 3 hours and 36 min-
utes. He wasn’t thrilled at how
difficult things had been in the
match, didn’t love double-fault-
ing three times in a game, and
didn’t like the feedback coming
from a portion of the fans.
“A majority of the people
comes to enjoy tennis or support
one or the other player. But they
are individuals. There are peo-
ple — there are groups or what-
ever — that love to boo every
single thing you do. T hat ’s
something that I find disre-
spectful and I frankly don’t un-
derstand that,” Djokovic said lat-
er at his news conference. “But
it’s their right. They paid the
ticket. They can do whatever
they want.”
After being 2 points from
dropping the second set, trail-
ing, 5-4, in that tiebreaker, Djok-
ovic grabbed control. He took
the next three points, each of
which ended with an error by
Davidovich Fokina, then, the set
his, Djokovic took a couple of
steps toward the sideline, before
reacting by punching the air,
spinning around, throwing an
uppercut, holding his right fist
aloft and roaring.
That drew some unfriendly
noise from some in the crowd.
Brady looks forward
to Foxborough return
uBRADY
Continued from Page C1
“But I’ ll be able to go back
there in a different frame of
mind and a less competitive
frame of mind. And I’m always
pulling for the Patriots. It’s been
a great organization. I’ve got so
many friends there still. My kids
were born in Boston. I have so
many incredible memories of
my time there, and it’s a great
gesture by the organization.”
Beyond the expected ovation,
Sept. 10 also will represent a re-
union between the signal caller
and his coach of two decades,
Bill Belichick.
Despite Brady’s exit three
years ago, he reiterated Thurs-
day that he maintains a very
p o s i t i v e r e l at i o n s h i p w i t h
Belichick, noting that Belichick
was one of the first to text him
after he won his seventh Super
Bowl in 2020 with Tampa Bay.
Brady expects that relation-
ship to grow as he starts to navi-
gate new ventures in his post-
playing career, be it his Fox
broadcasting gig or his reported
status as a minority shareholder
of the Las Vegas Raiders.
“I was very fortunate to play
with him and be a member of
those teams,” Brady said. “With
him and his leadership and his
ability to coach and put our
team in a great position to suc-
ceed, I think we had a great rela-
tionship.
“He very much trusted what I
was doing out there on the field
More displeasure with him was
expressed a moment later, when
the chair umpire announced
that Djokovic was taking a med-
ical timeout while a trainer mas-
saged his upper left leg.
Sitting in his chair with his
s h i r t o ff a n d a w h i t e t o w e l
around his shoulders, Djokovic
heard the negativity and re-
sponded with gestures. He
waved a hand, as if to say, “Give
me more!” He gave a sarcastic
thumbs-up and nodded. He ap-
plauded. He shook his head and
chuckled.
“At times, you know, I will
stay quiet. Not ‘at times’ — actu-
ally, 99 percent of the time, I will
stay quiet,” said Djokovic, who
won the French Open in 2016
and 2021 and, in addition to
seeking a 23rd major champion-
ship to break his tie with Rafael
Nadal, can become the first man
with at least three trophies at
each Slam site. “Sometimes I
will oppose that, because I feel
when somebody is disrespectful,
he or she deserves to have an an-
swer to that. That’s what it is all
about.”
In addition to the No. 3 Djok-
ovic, other seeded men advanc-
ing included No. 1 Carlos Alcar-
az, No. 5 Stefanos Tsitsipas, the
runner-up to Djokovic in Paris
two years ago and at the Austra-
lian Open this year, No. 11 Kar-
en Khachanov and No. 17
Lorenzo Musetti, who eliminat-
ed No. 14 Cam Norrie. Lorenzo
Sonego defeated No. 7 Andrey
Rublev.
Alcaraz was a 6-1, 6-4, 6-2
winner over No. 26 Denis
Shapovalov in the night session.
After trailing, 4-1, in the second
set — “I was in trouble,” Alcaraz
said — the reigning US. Open
champion grabbed seven con-
secutive games to take control
for good.
No. 2 Aryna Sabalenka and
No. 9 Daria Kasatkina moved in-
to the women’s fourth round,
along with Sloane Stephens, Eli-
na Svitolina and 2021 runner-
up Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova,
but No. 3 Jessica Pegula was
sent packing.
Pegula quickly gathered her
belongings and marched out of
the main stadium after a 6-1,
6-3 loss to Elise Mertens, a far
earlier exit than the American
has been used to at Grand Slam
tournaments lately.
Pegula was a quarterfinalist
at four of the five most recent
majors, including a year ago at
Roland Garros.
and obviously it went both ways.
. . . I think we always had a
great amount of respect for each
other, and I think as time goes
by we’ll have more respect for
one another because there will
be more perspective on those
things.
“I learned so much from him.
I’m taking a lot of things that he
taught me in terms of his leader-
ship into the different opportu-
nities that I have in front of me.”
As for the lingering rumors
that Brady might return to the
gridiron with the Raiders in
2023, he again shut down that
talk during an interview with
Sports Illustrated’s Robin Lund-
berg Thursday.
Brady doubled down on the
sentiment with Schaap, adding
that he’s ready to close that
chapter of his life after 23 sea-
sons in the NFL.
“Relieved,” Brady said when
asked how he feels about retir-
ing. “I won’t have Aaron Donald
trying to chase me down and
knock me out. I won’t have these
guys that would have gotten
paid a lot of money to hit me
and knock me on the ground.
“I do have a record for being
sacked more than any other
quarterback in NFL history,
which maybe somebody will
break that record someday. But I
got a lot of bumps and bruises to
show for 23 great seasons.”

St. Joseph/Matignon takes final bow

St. Joseph/Matignon 5 Daley, the
co-coach of the Saint Joseph Prep/Mati-
gnon softball team, trotted down the third
base line as his team waited for him. Unbe-
knownst to Daley, the entire team was
waiting to douse him with a multitude of
water bottles, drenching his green Mati-
gnon hat and black T-shirt.
Following a 13-5 loss to No. 31 Carver
Friday in the preliminary round of the Di-
vision 5 state softball tournament, the No.
35 Warriors needed to celebrate one final
time. With both schools permanently clos-
ing their doors, the contest marked the fi-
nal time that players would represent ei-
ther school in any sport.

Waltham baseball gets a signature win
By Matt Doherty
GLOBE CORRESPONDENT
Waltham lefthander Mike Cobb pulled
the game ball out of his back pocket and
set about his next task: to scribble the date
on the ball and get all of
SCHOOL his teammates to sign it.
ROUNDUP Cobb put together a
signature performance in
Friday’s 10-0 triumph over Dual County ri-
val Newton South in a Division 1 prelimi-
nary round matchup at Bentley, tossing
five no-hit innings with 10 strikeouts for
the No. 27 Hawks (13-8).
Although Cobb wasn’t able to complete
an official no-hitter because of the mercy
rule, he was happy to pitch five full in-
nings and guide his team into the first
round of the state tournament, where
Waltham will face a stern road test against
sixth-seeded St. John’s Shrewsbury (16-4)
on Sunday at 11 a.m.
“I did want to go for the real no-hitter
but I’ll take the five innings and the win,”
said Cobb.
Said coach Mike Peterson, “Mike’s been
great for us all year. He throws strikes.
He’s been consistent and he gave us a
chance to win.”
Cobb said he arrived to the field 15
minutes before his teammates and sat on
the outfield grass, completing breathing
exercises to help him focus.
The Bridgewater State-bound senior
was dominant from the first pitch, using
his two-seamer and four-seamer while
mixing in a swooping slider to generate
swings and misses and keep the Lions off-
balance. Cobb struck out four consecutive
batters on two separate occasions and al-
lowed only one baserunner to reach third
base. He walked three.
“My pitches were moving really well,”
said Cobb. “The two-seamer was moving
into lefties and my slider was pretty good
today.”
With Cobb rolling on the mound,
Waltham erupted for three runs in the
third on an RBI single by Ty Connolly and
enth, highlighted by senior Kaila Penrose’s
third RBI of the afternoon.
Each member of the team stood in the
dugout for the final frame, shielded from
the sun by a white tent. Sophomore Keysh-
la Perez hung onto the fence as the War-
riors grasped to their final outs as a team.
“At the beginning of the year, I said
hopefully we’ll finish 10-10 — a little bit
better than I thought we’d be,” said Daley.
“I’m proud of them.”
While shock waves reverberated at the
news both schools were closing at the end
of the academic year, the Warriors banded
together to make the playoffs and finish
with an 11-10 record. Balancing school
work, softball, and preparing applications
to make a decision on where to attend
school next year proved to be a challenging
task, but it did not faze the resilient group.
“I feel like I kind of knew that it was
eventually going to happen, but I can’t ex-
pect that ever,” said junior Abby Coyle, a
Dedham resident who attended Saint Jo-
seph Prep.
Taylor Daley was in the car with her fa-
ther, Steve, when an e-mail popped up on
her phone on May 2. It was entitled “Som-
ber Announcement.”

di. The Hawks made it 6-0 in the fourth
when leadoff hitter Luke Fredette (2 for 2,
2 runs, 3 RBIs) continued his hot day with
a two-run liner to left.
Four runs in the fifth, highlighted by
RBI singles from Nick LaForest and Cody
Eaton, gave Waltham an insurmountable
10-0 lead and ended the contest via the 10-
run rule.
“We’ve been struggling to score runs
lately so we’ve been harping on them in
practice to get guys in scoring position,”
said Peterson. “They had the right ap-
proach today. One through nine we hit the
ball really well today.”

gnon would be closing at the end of the
school year, Steve slammed on the brakes
of his car. Taylor immediately texted fresh-
man teammate Kailyn French, who dis-
missed it as a senior prank.
“I didn’t know what to think,” said
French. “Once I knew that it was real, I
had to start the process of applying to
schools, not just for academics, but sports
too.”
The group forged lasting friendships
through long hours on the field, rolling to
a 25-14 record in two seasons after the
shorthanded schools combined to form a
co-op.
Matignon athletic director Mike Lahiff,
a 1975 graduate of the school, has been in
his current role for five years after spend-
ing 13 years at Stoneham High and anoth-
er 11 in the same capacity at Watertown
High. With enrollment dwindling, Lahiff
lamented the closing of an institution he
attended along with nine of his younger
siblings.
“I’ve seen the plight of small high
schools trying to survive athletically,” said
Lahiff. “Public schools, they’ll survive be-
cause they have to educate, but Catholic
schools can’t cut it, and that’s what’s hap-
pened.”

Suh (66) gets hot at Memorial

ASSOCIATED PRESS
Justin Suh signed for a 6-
under-par 66 at the Memorial
and then made a few stops to
speak with the
GOLF media. His
ROUNDUP
putter stayed
with him the
entire time, which probably
was wise.
The way it behaved Friday,
when he holed eight putts from
the 10-foot range or longer, he
might not want to let it out of
his sight.
Suh made one last birdie on
the 18th that gave him a one-
shot lead over past champion
Hideki Matsuyama, with two-
time Memorial champion Pat-
to save par, and there were
plenty of birdies along the way
on another sunny, hot after-
noon at Muirfield Village in
Dublin, Ohio.
Matsuyama and Cantlay
played in the morning, two
players who consider the
course Jack Nicklaus built
among their favorites all year.
Matsuyama’s putting was equal
to what Suh produced in the af-
ternoon, rolling in big birdie
putts on his way to a tourna-
ment-best 65.
David Lipsky (69) joined
Cantlay at 6-under 138.
The group four shots behind
included Rory McIlroy (68) and
Jon Rahm (70).
Open at Jersey City, N.J.
Cheyenne Knight had a 68
in the inaugural event to join
Lee at 7-under 137 atop the
tightly bunched leaderboard
that features five top-10 players
and promising newcomer Rose
Zhang.
Play was suspended late in
the afternoon for 1 hours and
47 minutes because of danger-
ous weather conditions near
Liberty National.
The fifth-ranked Lee birdied
eight of the first 12 holes in a
bogey-free round that moved
her from 55th to the top spot.
No. 3 Lydia Ko was a shot
back after a 69.

Nadal: Hip arthroscopic surgery

Rafael Nadal had arthroscopic surgery Friday
night for the injured left hip flexor that forced
him to sit out the French Open for the first time
since he won the first of his record 14 titles there
in his 2005 tournament debut. Nadal’s spokes-
man, Benito Perez-Barbadillo, said three doctors
were involved in the procedure, which was tak-
ing place in Barcelona. Perez-Barbadillo said he
expected to be able to pass along information
about the operation Saturday, which is Nadal’s
37th birthday. The Spaniard has been sidelined
horse fatalities in the past month at the home of
the Kentucky Derby. No single factor has been
identified as a potential cause for the fatalities or
pattern detected, but it decided to relocate the
meet “in an abundance of caution.” Racing will
continue at Churchill Downs through Sunday be-
fore shifting to the CDI-owned racing and gam-
ing facility in Henderson, Ky.

Suns hire Vogel as coach
The Suns hired former NBA champion coach
Frank Vogel to replace Monty Williams, a person
with knowledge of the decision told the Associat-
ed Press. The person spoke to the AP on condi-
tion of anonymity because the team had not an-
nounced the move. Vogel, 49, has been the coach
of the Pacers, Magic, and Lakers during his ca-
reer and now moves to the Suns, where he'll try
to help the franchise win its first title in its 55-
year history with a roster that includes stars Kev-
in Durant, Devin Booker, and Chris Paul.

Kipyego: 1,500 world mark
Faith Kipyegon broke the women’s 1,500 me-
ters world record at the Golden Gala in Florence,
Italy. She became the first woman to better 3
minutes and 50 seconds when the Kenyan won in
3:49.11 in the Diamond League meet. The two-

took almost a second off the record of 3:50.07 by

UEFA charges Roma coach
José Mourinho was charged by UEFA after be-
ing filmed aggressively cursing at the English
match referee in a stadium garage after the Euro-
pa League final. UEFA said the Roma coach is
charged for “insulting/abusive language against a
match official” — who was later verbally abused
by Italian fans at the airport in Budapest — after
Sevilla’s title victory in the Hungarian capital this
week. The European soccer body also pledged to
review operations to protect match officials. The
airport incident followed the first cup final since
a major overhaul of UEFA security planning
since the chaotic and dangerous scenes at the
Champions League final in Paris one year ago.
Mourinho's disciplinary case was among a slew
of charges UEFA opened into incidents at a testy,
bad-tempered game that lasted more than three
hours on Wednesday and led to a field invasion
by celebrating Spanish fans . . . Dallas United
withdrew from a 32-team, seven-on-seven tour-
nament following an alleged racial slur during a
match against West Ham. “We have concluded
that Dallas United violated TST’s code of con-
duct,” organizers of the competition, known as
The Soccer Tournament, said on Twitter.

Jr.
Of Hingham, passed away
unexpectedly, as a result of an accident,
on May 16, 2023, one day before his
85th birthday and a month before
his 60th wedding anniversary. Born
in Boston, he was the son of the late
Donald Folsom Pitcher and Roberta
(Hardy) Pitcher. A lifelong resident of
Hingham, he graduated from Hingham
High School (1956), Harvard College

(1966). From 1960 to 1963, he was a
naval officer on the USS Lowe out of
San Francisco He was a Senior Vice

years before retiring in 2005, and was
an early champion for women in the
workplace. An avid sailor and quirky
tennis player, he was a member of the
Hingham Yacht Club, Hingham Tennis
Club and the Cohasset Golf Club. For
the last 18 years, he divided his time
between Hingham, MA and Bristol,
ME, spending countless hours shaping
his bushes one inch at a time. It was
his form of therapy, a time to consider
world and local issues. He gave himself
the title of Master Pruner.
Don was an exceptional, caring and
loving husband and father and fiercely
loyal to his friends. He is survived by
his wife, Shirley Hampton Pitcher;
son, Donald Folsom Pitcher, III of

POTTER, Harry, M.D.
Of Newton, passed away on May 31,
2023, at age 72. Harry was a loving
husband to Betty Waxman; devoted
father to Dr. Julie Potter and Dr. Carrie
Potter; and sons-in-law, Vincenzo
Bertoli and Dr. Colin Smith. He was a
devoted grandfather to Luciano and
Olivia Bertoli and Ross and Miles
Smith. He was a loving brother to
Jackie Potter; brother-in-law William
Black; and uncle to Samuel and Daniel
Black. He was a loving brother-in-law
to Dr. Harvey Waxman and Susan
Feldman; and uncle to Matthew and
Alex Waxman.
Harry was born on January 21st,
1951, in Portland, Maine, to Arnold
and Selma Potter. The youngest of three
siblings, Harry was known as the family
sweetheart who could coax anything
from his mother with a snuggle. In
high school, Harry got straight A’s
and graduated second in his class,
despite occasionally giving his teachers
a run for their money. He attended
the University of Michigan as an
undergraduate, received a doctorate in
neuroscience from MIT, and later went
on to UMass Medical School. He was
brilliant but also humble, preferring to
introduce himself as Harry instead of
Dr. Potter.
He met his wife, Betty, during the
sixth week of college in the lunchline,
and they were a couple from that
moment on. They were married at
age 22 and were one month shy of
celebrating 50 years of marriage when
he passed away. They balanced each
other perfectly, she had the ideas and
he handled the details. He was always
focused on doing things to make Betty’s
life easier. During graduate school,
he typed Betty’s law school papers in
addition to doing his own neuroscience
experiments. They were creatures
of habit; they bought their house in
Newton in 1978 and never moved.
For over 40 years, they were a fixture
on Centre Street, as they walked to
Newton Centre, to grab an ice cream
or just to chat. Despite not being much
of a traveler, Harry was a good sport
about the many exotic trips the family
took, and he looked back on them with
joy. His happy place, however, was their
vacation home on Cape Cod, where he
and Betty enjoyed taking long rides on
their e-bikes and hosting family and
friends for dinner.
Harry was a devoted father. He took
tremendous pride in his daughters,
Julie and Carrie, and was always
thinking of them. If he heard about a
possible ailment or car problem they
were having, he would call (or show
up) at any hour of the day or night to
help. He showed great interest in their
work as a pediatrician and psychologist
and loved talking with them about
patient care. He doted on his four
grandchildren, Luc, Olivia, Ross and
Miles, and spent time with them
weekly, reading, playing on the floor,
and driving them to activities.
Harry worked as a primary care
internist for 37 years in Framingham,
most recently at Tufts MetroWest
Medical Center. He was described
by his colleagues as “a legend” and a
“gifted clinician” who was “kind and
decent to the people he touched.” Many
of his patients said he was the best
UEK, Mary (Breen)
Of Naples, FL and East Dennis, MA,
died May 30, 2023, at the McCarthy
Care Center, Sandwich, MA.
Born in Medford, MA in 1941, Mary

Breen and Alice Walsh Breen. Mary is
survived by her husband, Robert W.
Uek and their three children, Barbara
Uek Hansen, and her husband, Barclay
of East Dennis, MA, Robert J. Uek and
his wife, Cynthia Stolpe Uek of Boston
and Falmouth, MA and Paul S. Uek
of South Yarmouth, MA; as well as
six grandchildren, Ashley, Krista, and
Garrett Hansen and Matthew, Courtney
and Alexander Uek. Mary is also
survived by her sister, Alice Clancy of
Merrimack, NH; and her brothers, John
Breen of Northfield, OH and David
Breen of Westford, MA.
Mary graduated from Girl’s Catholic
High School in Malden, MA in 1959.
She earned a B.A. in Sociology from
Emmanuel College in 1963 and served
as a social worker in Cambridge, MA.
Mary married her husband in 1964 and
they settled in Westwood, MA, where
they raised their children and resided
for more than 30 years. After raising
her family, Mary earned a M.A. in
Special Education from Boston College.
She then spent a decade as a Special
Education Administrator and teacher in
the public school system of Millis, MA.
Mary retired in the early 2000s with
her husband to Naples, Florida.
Mary was an active volunteer
in many nonprofit organizations
over the years, including the Young
Women’s Club, the Cub Scouts, Meals
on Wheels and Habitat for Humanity.
She loved spending time with her six
grandchildren. Mary also enjoyed
gardening, painting, reading, sailing,
traveling and was an avid Bridge player.
Mary and her family have enjoyed
summering in East Dennis on Cape
Cod, annually since 1975 and were
long-time members of the Dennis Yacht
Club, where she served as a former
Commodore.
All services will be private. In lieu
of flowers, please consider a donation
to the Dennis Senior Center in Dennis,
MA. The family wishes to thank the
hospice nurses at both the Visiting
Nurse Association of Cape Cod and the
McCarthy Care Center in Sandwich,

Cynthia Weil, 82, Grammy-winning lyricist who teamed with husband
By Hillel Italie
ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Cynthia Weil,
a Grammy-winning lyricist of
notable range and endurance
who enjoyed a decades-long
partnership with husband Barry
Mann and helped write “You’ve
Lost That Lovin’ Feeling,” “On
Broadway,” “ Walking in the
Rain,” and dozens of other hits,
has died at 82.
Ms. Weil’s daughter, Dr. Jenn
Mann, said that the songwriter
died Thursday at her home in
Beverly Hills, Calif., “surrounded
by her family.” Mann, the cou-
ple’s only child, declined to cite a
specific cause of death.
C y n t h i a We i l a n d B a r r y
Mann, married in 1961, were
one of popular music’s most suc-
cessful teams, part of a remark-
able ensemble recruited by im-
presarios Don Kirshner and Al
Nevins and based in Manhat-
tan’s Brill Building neighbor-
hood, a few blocks from Times
Square. With such hit-making
combinations as Carole King
and Gerry Goffin and Jeff Barry
and Ellie Greenwich, the Brill
Building song factory turned out
many of the biggest singles of
the ’60s and beyond.
“I grew up around a lot of
music and two incredible, bril-
liant, creative geniuses,” Jenn
Mann said. “My parents inspired
each other to write great songs.
My mom always said that when
things were good they had each
other, and when things weren’t
as good they had their music.”
Ms. Weil and Mann were key
collaborators with producer Phil
Spector on songs for the
R o n e tt e s ( “ Wa l k i n g i n t h e
Amitai
Etzioni, 94,
visionary
sociologist
By Robert D. McFadden
NEW YORK TIMES
Amitai Etzioni, the Israeli
American sociologist who drew
wide attention and storms of de-
rision by fathering the commu-
nitarian movement, a vision of
society in which people are
asked to care less about their
own rights than about one an-
other and the common good,
died Wednesday at his home in
Washington. He was 94.
The death was confirmed by
his son David.
Born to German-Jewish par-
ents who fled from Hitler to Pal-
estine, Mr. Etzioni fought for Is-
raeli independence, moved to
the United States in 1957, and
became an influential academic
and political figure. He wrote
prodigiously, taught at George
Washington University, testified
before Congress, and advised
presidents, prime ministers, and
other Western leaders on foreign
and national policies.
Barely a decade after landing
in America, Mr. Etzioni was fa-
mous, writing books and articles
far afield from the turgid corners
of sociology — provocative com-
mentaries on the nuclear arms
race, European security, the
Vietnam War, America’s racial
and educational problems, ener-
gy and inflation policies, and
popular worries over pornogra-
phy, student unrest, and topics
ranging from sex therapy to Hol-
lywood hoopla.
“Sometimes Amitai Etzioni
seems to be a one-man profes-
sion,” Time magazine said.
He was appointed to commis-
sions and advisory panels, invited
to join editorial boards and televi-
sion debates, and showered with
fellowships, awards, and honor-
ary degrees. He argued with Wer-
nher von Braun on the Soviet-
American space race, helped Bet-
ty Friedan in 1974 star t an
Economic Think Tank for Wom-
en, as it was called, to consider
women’s “hidden economic pow-
er,” and was invited to lead a state
investigation of a nursing home
scandal in New York involving
substandard conditions.
But of all Mr. Etzioni’s pur-
suits, none hit home with great-
er force than “communitarian-
ism,” which he named, interpret-
ed, and promoted for two
decades, starting in the early
1990s. It was not novel — liber-
als and conservatives had debat-
ed an unnamed middle ground
for decades — but it captured
Rain”), the Crystals (“He’s Sure
the Boy I Love”), and other per-
formers, and also provided hits
for everyone from Dolly Parton
to Hanson. “Somewhere Out
There,” a collaboration with
James Horner for the sound-
track of “An American Tail,” won
Grammys in 1987 for best song
and best song for a movie or tele-
vision, and was nominated for
an Academy Award and Golden
Globe. “Don’t Know Much,” a
Linda Ronstadt-Aaron Neville
duet they helped write, was a top
5 hit that won a best pop perfor-
mance Grammy in 1990.
Their most famous song, a
work of history overall, was
“You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feel-
ing,” an anthem of “blue-eyed
soul” produced by Spector as if
scoring a tragedy and sung with
desperate fury by the Righteous
Brothers. “ You’ve Lost That
L ovin’ Feeling ” topped the
charts in 1965 and was covered
by numerous other artists. Ac-
cording to Broadcast Music Inc.,
no other song was played more
on radio and television in the
20th century.
But when Ms. Weil and Mann
first played “You’ve Lost That
Lovin’ Feeling” for the Righteous
Brothers, the response from
singers Bill Medley and Bobby
Hatfield was “dead silence.”
“Bill said, ‘Sounds good for
the Everly Brothers not the Righ-
teous Brothers,’” she told Parade
magazine in 2015. “We thought
‘Oh, God.’ Then Bobby said,
‘What am I supposed to do while
the big guy’s singing?’ and Phil
[Spector] said “You can go to the
bank.’”
While many of Ms. Weil’s

imaginations with its sermoniz-
ing, political rhetoric, and dash-
es of old-fashioned needlepoint
virtues.
Communitarianism, with its
emphasis on community, not the
individual, staked out ground
between liberal advocates of civil
liberties and welfare rights on
one hand, and conservative
champions of laissez-faire eco-
nomics and traditional values on
the other. It never became a
mainstream political movement,
but it won significant followings
in America and Europe.
Though the idea seemed sim-

in all directions. Individual lib-

people who willingly embraced
the responsibilities of citizen-

on healthy communities and in-

local governments, and religious

And its principles could be
applied to larger national and in-
ternational issues — a “commu-
nitarian” view of military and
defense postures, federal spend-
ing priorities, educational goals,
even East-West nuclear arms

lantic Treaty Organization and
the Soviet bloc were “communi-

Ilya Kabakov, artist with sardonic wit, 89
By Penelope Green
NEW YORK TIMES
Ilya Kabakov, a celebrated
artist whose immersive installa-
tions, paintings, and drawings
told sardonically witty stories
about the dreams and interior
lives of those who had endured
the deprivations and degrada-
tions of the Soviet era he grew
up in, died May 27 at a hospital
near his home and studio in
Mattituck, N.Y., on the East End
of Long Island. He was 89.
He had been struggling with
a heart condition, his step-
daughter Viola Kanevsky said.
For decades in Soviet Russia,
Mr. Kabakov was, by day, a well-
known children’s book illustra-
tor, a state-sponsored artist with
his own studio and art supplies
(which he shared with his under-
ground artist friends). He creat-
ed some 150 children’s books be-
fore 1988, when he left the coun-
try for good.
Yet he was also leading a dou-
ble life as a conceptual artist. In
the 1970 s, he began making
what he called albums, a series
of whimsical drawings and
paintings with tragicomical
characters who used their imagi-
nations to escape the privations
and indignities of the failed uto-
pian experiment that was the So-
viet Union. His albums had titles
and scenarios that recalled the
work of novelists like Mikhail
Bulgakov, author of “The Master
and Margarita,” a dark 1967 sat-
ire of life under Josef Stalin.
One album, “Sitting in the
Closet Primakov,” was about a
little boy who retreats into a
closet with toys and scraps of
garbage but dreams of flying
away and disappearing into the
sky.
“All of the characters were as-
pects of his own psyche, of his
frustrations, his fears, and his
dreams,” Amei Wallach, who
wrote the monograph “Ilya Ka-
bakov: The Man Who Never
Threw Anything Away” (1996),
said in a phone interview. And
he housed his characters in what
were known as communal apart-
ments, the typical living ar-
rangement of the Soviet era, in
which families were crowded in-
to single rooms carved out of
what had of ten been grand
apartments, sharing bathrooms
with strangers and fighting for
resources and privacy. It was
metaphor he would return to
again and again.
The albums were rendered in
the anonymous style Mr. Kabak-
ov had honed as a prolific state-
approved illustrator. It was ille-
gal to show anything but state-
sponsored ar t , so he would
circulate his forbidden work in
secret among his artist friends,

including Eric Bulatov and Oleg
Vassiliev, members of a cadre of
men and women who became
known as the Moscow Conceptu-
alists. Unlike the work of their
Western counterparts, theirs
was narrative- and character-
driven, Mr. Kabakov’s particu-
larly so.
“The whole time we expected
to be arrested, for something ter-
rible to happen,” Mr. Kabakov
told Andrew Solomon, who
wrote about him in The New
York Times Magazine in 1992.
“But to us, nothing terrible ever
happened. We just drank tea in
one another’s kitchens, dis-
cussed and criticized one anoth-
er’s work and traveled together
in the summers.”
By 1988, he was ready to
leave. He immigrated to Austria
and then Paris before settling on
New York’s Long Island with the
help of Emilia Kanevsky, a dis-
tant cousin who became his pro-
moter, producer, and collabora-
tor. They married in 1992, and
over the decadesy shared credit
on Mr. Kabakov’s installations.
“Ilya Kabakov was Soviet so-
ciety’s secret anthropologist,”
critic and curator Robert Storr
wrote in his introduction to Wal-
lach’s monograph. “Student of
its myths and customs, ironic
observer of its normal citizens,
and sympathetic analyst of its
eccentrics, he patiently assem-
bled an image of collectivized
life that the West could under-
stand and the East could not fail
to recognize.”
Ilya Josifovich Kabakov was
born Sept. 30, 1933, in Dnepro-
petrovsk (now Dnipro), Ukraine.
His mother, Bertha Ulievna So-
lodukhina, was a secretary at a
vocational school; his father, Jo-
seph Benzionovich Kabakov,
who had trained to be a lock-
smith, was a metalworker at a
factory that made bed parts.
When the Germans invaded
the Soviet Union in 1941, the
family fled to Samarkand, Uz-
bekistan. In a twist of fate, a
prestigious art school had also
been evacuated to that city. One
mented the intense friendship
and rivalry between the two
married couples.
“Cynthia’s high professional
standard made us all better
songwriters. My favorite Cynthia
lyric is, “Just a little lovin’ early
in the mornin’ beats a cup of cof-
fee for startin’ out the day,’ ” King
wrote on her social media ac-
counts Friday, quoting from the
Mann-Weil ballad “Just a Little
L o v i n ,’ ” c o v e r e d b y D u s t y
Springfield among others.
“If we’re lucky, we know this
is true, but she wrote it — and
then she rhymed ‘mornin’’ with
‘yawnin’’ in the next verse. May
the legacy of lyrics by Cynthia
Weil continue to speak to and for
generations to come.”
Ms. Weil, the daughter of
Jewish immigrants from Eastern
Europe, was born in New York
City and studied piano and bal-
let as a child. She majored in the-
ater at Sarah Lawrence College,
but was encouraged by an agent
to try songwriting. By age 20,
she was working for the publish-
ing company of “Guys and Dolls”
composer Frank Loesser.
“I was writing with a young
Italian boy singer, the Frankie
Avalon of his day, named Teddy
Randazzo, when Barry came in
to play him a song,” she told the
Los Angeles Times in 2016. “I
asked the receptionist, ‘Who is
this guy? Does he have a girl-
friend?’ She said, ‘He’s signed to
a friend of mine, Don Kirshner,
and if I call Donny, maybe you
can go up there to show him
your lyrics and mee t Barr y
again.’ So that’s what she did.
And that’s what I did. He didn’t
have a chance.”
day, when Mr. Kabakov was 10,
he was cajoled by an older boy
into sneaking into the grand
building that the art school had
commandeered. When they
were discovered by a woman,
the older boy ran away, and Mr.
Kabakov was left standing agape
in front of a group of paintings;
they contained a great number
of naked women, and Mr. Kaba-
kov later credited their erotic al-
lure with changing his life. The
woman invited him to apply to
the school, and he was immedi-
ately accepted.
When the war was over, Mr.
Kabakov went to another presti-
gious school, the Surikov Art In-
stitute in Moscow. His mother
followed him there, living ille-
gally, because she didn’t have the
proper papers, in a series of aw-
ful quarters, including the bath-
room of a school where she had
found work as a janitor.
In 1992, for the ninth Docu-
menta, an exhibition of contem-
porary art held every five years
in Kassel, Germany, Mr. Kabak-
ov paid homage to his mother’s
harrowing experience with an
installation called “The Toilet,” a
meticulously grim replica of So-
viet-style public toilets from the
1960s and ’70s.
Mr. Kabakov was seemingly
everywhere in 1992, able at last
to stretch out with ambitious in-
stallations at the Museum of
Modern Art and the Ronald
Feldman Gallery in New York
and in shows across Europe.
“He took the West by storm,”
said Wallach, whose 2013 film,
“Ilya and Emilia Kabakov: Enter
Here,” documents the couple’s
return to Russia in 2008, when
he was treated there like a na-
tional treasure. She added,
“When he finally did leave” in
the late 1980s — during the per-
estroika years — “it was just the
right moment for the West to
celebrate a Soviet-born artist of
his stature.”
“It may seem sudden,” David
A. Ross, director of the Whitney
Museum of American Art in
New York, said of Mr. Kabakov’s
newfound fame, as Solomon re-
ported in 1992, “but you have to
understand that he had been
working out of sight for decades
and that his whole lifetime of
work was then discovered at
once. Finding him was like
stumbling across Jasper Johns
or Robert Rauschenberg in the
full flush of their maturity.”
In a d d i t i o n t o V i o l a K a -
nevsky, Mr. Kabakov is survived
by his wife; a daughter, Galina,
from his first marriage, which
ended in divorce; another step-
daughter, Isis Kanevsky; four
grandchildren; and two great-
grandchildren.

The city has created a pedestrian-only zone on a portion of Stanhope Street in front of the proposed hotel.
In a Back Bay nook, hotel
project moves forward
By Catherine Carlock
GLOBE STAFF
At lunchtime one day last week, tables
on the Back Bay nook known as Stanhope
Street were full of a quiet bustle — visitors
in town for graduation season, business
folk tapping away on laptops outside Flour
Bakery + Cafe and The Friendly Toast,
dogs snoozing in the warm spring sun.
Across the street, toddlers swung on play-
ground equipment at Frieda Garcia Park.
A low-lying brick building at 39 Stanhope,
originally built as a stable and most recent-
ly the home to the Red Lantern restaurant
and nightclub, stood quiet.
For years though, a team of developers
has had an eye on that old stable as a loca-
tion for a new hotel, formally notifying the
city of an intention to build in 2019. The
developer — a joint venture of affiliates of
H.N. Gorin Inc. and Masterworks Devel-
opment Co. LLC — has not given up on the
idea, and this month filed new documen-
tation with the Boston Planning & Devel-
opment Agency outlining plans to build a
21-story, 300-room hotel.

Wegmans in Natick to close this summer
Grocery chain says cites ‘non-traditional location’ at mall in its decision
By Dana Gerber
GLOBE STAFF
Five years ago, much-loved supermar-
ket chain Wegmans took a leap in opening
a sprawling 130,000-plus-square-foot loca-
tion at the Natick Mall, its first location in
such a venue.
On Thursday, the Rochester, N.Y.-based
chain declared that experiment would
come to an end.
The Natick location, one of the compa-
ny’s largest, will close later this summer,
with an exact date to be announced, the
chain said in a press release. The 365 em-
ployees there will all be offered positions at
other local Wegmans, according to the re-
lease.
“Making these decisions is never easy.
However, we do it for the long-term benefit
of our people, our customers, and our com-
munities,” said Brien MacKendrick, the hu-
man resources director of Wegmans’ New
England division, in the release. “Unfortu-
nately, with this non-traditional location
we are unable to attract enough customers
for our business model to work.”
The chain may not be saying goodbye to
Natick forever, however, with MacKendrick
noting that the grocer is “eager to pursue
new store locations in the area for the fu-
ture.”
Five Wegmans locations will remain in
Massachusetts, in Burlington, Medford,
Chestnut Hill, Westwood, and Northbor-
ough. The chain has more than 100 loca-
tions along the East Coast.
The Natick Mall location, which took
the place of a JCPenney, opened to much
fanfare in 2018, boasting two stories, near-
ly 70,000 items, and a 32-seat wine tasting
room. It initially housed the 260-seat Blue
Dalia Restaurant and Tequila Bar, but that
closed in 2019.

Gorin and Masterworks say they’ll keep
and restore the building’s facade on the
first two levels, including the stables — “at
an estimated additional cost of $3 million,”
Wiest wrote — and also have studied con-
verting Stanhope Street to a pedestrian
mall at the behest of the BPDA and the
Boston Transportation Department. The
city plans to keep a section of Stanhope
Street between Clarendon Street and Cah-
ners Place — the section currently full of
temporary outdoor dining setups — as “a
pedestrian-only streetscape.”

This move comes as mall space across

The hotel would have a drop-off zone
on Stanhope Street but not have any on-

nearby parking garages, such as the 100

approval, and the developer’s filing does
not include a construction timeline, nor

lagging prepandemic levels, has gained ev-

Labor market
keeps hot pace
with 339,000
new jobs in May
Unemployment
rate nudges up
as warning sign
By Lauren Kaori Gurley
WASHINGTON POST
Employers posted a block-
buster 339,000 jobs in May in
the latest sign that a booming
labor market continues to keep
the country from slipping into a
recession, but the economy also
gave new warning signs with an
increase in the unemployment
rate.
T he unemployment rate
rose in May to 3.7 percent from
3.4 percent, one of the fastest
increases since early in the pan-
demic, according to Bureau of
Labor Statistics data released
Friday. About 440,000 more
workers reported that they are
unemployed — and most of
those were from temporary
jobs ending or layoffs, accord-
ing to the data. Some of that in-
crease could be driven by lay-
offs in the tech sector that have
hit 200,000 workers this year,
The labor market has added jobs at a steady clip in the
past year, despite efforts to cool the economy.
according to the tech layoff
tracker Layoffs.fyi.
The weakness was fueled by
a sharp rise in Black unemploy-
ment, which had reached a re-
cord low in April, and in-
creased by nearly a full per-
centage point to 5.6 percent in
May.
“The increase in unemploy-
ment rate was about as large as
we ever see the unemployment
rate go up,’’ said Jason Furman,
formerly president Barack
Obama’s top economic adviser.
‘’I think that should make us
nervous, but not panic, because
… a lot of jobs were added in
May.”
The White House trumpet-
ed the jobs report in a state-
ment on Friday, hours after
Congress passed a debt ceiling
deal that trims federal spend-
ing and maintains the govern-
ment’s ability to pay its bills.
“Today is a good day for the
American economy and Ameri-
can workers,” President Biden
said in the statement. “And due
to the historic action taken by
Congress this week, my eco-
nomic plan will continue to de-
liver good jobs for the Ameri-
can people in communities
throughout the country.”
All three major stock index-
es jumped on news of the job
gains. Combined with the un-
employment data, the report
appears to give investors confi-
dence that the Federal Reserve
will pause interest rate increas-
es this month.
Overall, the May jobs report
was good news, reflecting the
29th-straight month of strong
job growth that has come to de-
fine the pandemic recovery
economy. Economists had pre-
dicted a much smaller number
of jobs created in May —
around 180,000.
For months, employers have
churned out jobs at a pace that
D
has baffled economists. The la-
bor market has propelled the
economy through a barrage of
forces that would normally
weigh on job creation — steep
interest rate increases, slowing
growth, and bank failures.
Despite strong payroll gains,
the May jobs data could result
in Fed officials sticking to the
plan of pausing interest rate in-
creases at their upcoming June
meeting, as the jump in unem-
ployment complicates the pic-
ture of an otherwise healthy la-
bor market.
The job gains in May were
spread across industries includ-
ing government, health care,
professional and business ser-
vices, and social assistance, as
consumers have continued to
spend heavily on services com-
ing out of pandemic shut-
downs.
On top of that, construction
— an industry more sensitive to
interest rate increases — defied
expectations and continued to
notch big gains, adding 25,000
jobs in May.
At the same time, job gains

in the leisure and hospitality in-
dustry, a driver of ongoing la-
bor market tightness, have be-
gun to show signs of softening.
And job growth in manufactur-
ing and information ticked
down slightly.
Economists noted the spike
in unemployment shows that
laid-off workers are struggling
more to find jobs. To make mat-
ters worse, data shows that the
country’s marginalized workers
are driving the increase in un-
employment. Black workers
made nearly half of May’s spike
in unemployed workers,
though economists caution that
month-to-month data on race
can be volatile.
Meanwhile, the unemploy-
ment rate also shot up in May
for workers with disabilities
and those without high school
and college diplomas.
“ When firms move away
from more vulnerable popula-
tions, it’s probably a sign that
they’re preparing for economic
weakness,” said Drew Matus,
chie f marke t strategis t for
MetLife Investment Manage-
ment.
Average hourly wage growth
slowed, rising 0.3 percent be-
tween April and May, up to
$33.44 an hour. The Fed has
closely monitored wage growth
as a gauge of whether the econ-
omy has cooled enough to con-
trol inflation. Wages are rising
faster than they have in years
for earners on the lowest end of
the scale, but overall wage
growth is not keeping up with
i n f l at i o n , a d d i n g s t r e s s t o
Americans’ pocketbooks.
Adults in their prime work-
ing age between 25 and 54 are
back in the workforce at the
highest rate since 2007. And as
of May, adult women in their
prime working age were em-
ployed at rates not seen in two
decades.

HOROSCOPE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday,
June 3, 2023:
You are courageous and resilient.
You are also sharp-witted, clever
and multitalented. (Lucky you.)
This is an excellent year to take up
further studies or explore any-
thing you want to learn, especially
exploring your inner world and
higher consciousness. This year
gets more exciting as it progresses.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
You have strong opinions about
politics and religion today, even if
authority figures might try to
thwart your efforts to state your
opinions. These opinions also
might deal with the rights of chil-
dren. Or they might defend your
romantic relationship with some-
one. Tonight: Be agreeable.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Money squabbles or disputes
about how to divide or share
something with a friend or a
group might occur today. Regard-
less of what happens, you will
have support from family and
home. In fact, you might use your
financial influence to help family
and home. Tonight: Avoid dis-
putes.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
If you are at odds with a parent,
boss or member of the police to-
day, show them courtesy. (Never
underestimate its power.) Regard-
less of what happens, your ability
to convince others and set things
in motion is very powerful today,
and you will succeed! Tonight: Co-
operate.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Legal restrictions or your dealings
with different cultures might cre-
ate a challenge for you today, espe-
cially at work or in your job. This
might even impact your health or
your pet. Meanwhile, you’re gung-
ho to work hard to boost your
earnings! Tonight: Work.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Even though there are some re-
strictions regarding shared prop-
erty or getting the financial help
from others, this is a high energy,
playful, romantic day! Enjoy
sports outings and fun activities
with kids. Be flirtatious. Do what
makes you happy. Tonight: Be
helpful.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
A serious discussion with a part-
ner or close friend might dampen
your enthusiasm about something
today, especially something relat-
ed to home or family. (In fact, this

TV CRITIC’S CORNER LOVE LETTERS

BY MATTHEW GILBERT BY MEREDITH GOLDSTEIN

What am I missing with

Tom Hiddleston will return as Jonathan Pine in season 2 of “The
Night Manager.” The production company The Ink Factory is
behind two adaptations of novels by the late John le Carré (below).
In the works: ‘The Constant Gardener’
miniseries, ‘Night Manager’ season 2
I’ve got some John le Carré-relat-
ed news. In 2005, Ralph Fiennes
was in the movie “The Constant
Gardener,” an adaptation of le Car-
ré’s 2001 novel. Now the novel is be-
ing adapted again, this time into a
miniseries by the production com-
pany The Ink Factory. It will be writ-
ten by Lydia Adetunji of “His Dark
Materials.” No cast or network is at-
tached yet.
The Ink Factory is also putting
DES WILLIE/THE INK FACTORY/AMC
together season 2 of the le Carré ad-
aptation “The Night Manager,”
whose first season ran in 2016. Tom
Hiddleston is returning to play Jon-
athan Pine, and the season will be
available in the US on Amazon.
Rumors of a second season have
been afoot for years. It will report-
edly be set in the present day, and it
will pick up Pine’s story after the
death of Hugh Laurie’s arms dealer,
Richard Roper.
SANG TAN/AP/FILE 2011
these breakups?
Q. Some background: I’m a 46-year-old
woman, born and raised in Europe, came
to the US decades ago. When I was in my
late 20s, I married a nice man. After sev-
en years of what I thought was a good
marriage, he said he wanted to be single
again. Just like that, he left me. I begged,
I cried, but he didn’t want to reconsider. I
moved out and lived by myself for two
years without hearing much from him;
however, he didn’t divorce me. After two
years of that separation, my mother-in-
law (a wonderful lady) reached out to me,
saying that it might be a good idea to ex-
tend an olive branch. He didn’t take any
steps to reconnect with me (with the ex-
ception of leaving my favorite flowers on
the windshield of my car one day). I
didn’t think it was my place to try to
mend things. I was incredibly hurt and I
guess I wanted HIM to show that he
wanted me back.
One day I received an e-mail from
him, telling me how much he missed me
... and that he’d been sleeping with his
roommate (he couldn’t afford to live in
the place without renting a room to some
girl he met online). When I read that e-
mail, I threw up (apologies for the TMI)
and filed for divorce. After the divorce,
we actually remained pretty friendly and
kept in touch. He remarried someone else
two years later and moved away. I hear
from him on my birthday, and sometimes
he sends me a picture or a link to an arti-
cle.
It’s been 10 years since our divorce
and I wonder sometimes if we could have
saved that marriage. I’ve been trying to
date most of this time. I ended up in one
horrific relationship that almost killed
me and literally bankrupted me. I’ve had
other traumatic experiences.
In October of last year, I met a won-
derful guy (on Bumble). We hit it off so
amazingly, and I tried to give my new love
the space he needed. I understood that
relationships require work and patience
and being open with each other. After six
months, I received a cold text from him,
so I called him. He said that he couldn’t
see me anymore, that he still loves me,
and I am the nicest person he ever met,
but he can’t be the man I want him to be.
Once again, a man left me without an ex-
planation and a bit blindsided.
I cried so hard after that call and then
I blocked his number. I don’t know if he
tried to reach out after that, but I figured
he knows where I live. I don’t want to
stop trusting men and lose hope that
some of them are decent and strong
enough to get through life’s storms with
me. When does it make sense to try to
reach out to a guy who leaves without
much explanation, and when should I
just let go? I’m in this limbo of sadness
and anger with so many unanswered
questions. I understand that six months
is not THAT long; however, it felt so good
to finally meet someone who I thought
understood and cared about me.
MISSING
A. I’m sorry. I wish I could tell you why
people are so bad at breakups.
I do think I know why some of these
people leave without giving you a good
explanation. It could be that they don’t
have one. Maybe this most recent boy-
friend knew he wasn’t up for being a part-
ner, but didn’t know why. He told you he
couldn’t be the man you wanted him to
be. Perhaps he wanted a more casual rela-
tionship. That’s enough of an answer,
even if it’s not the one you want.
As far as your ex-husband is con-
cerned, he also told you his motive for
leaving. He wanted to be single again. It’s
a big “yikes” of a reason, of course. I’m
sure there are many moments during
good marriages when people wish they
were on their own. They’re supposed to
stay and work on it. It sounds like he
signed up for a big commitment before he
understood what it would require.
What’s missing in this picture is some
focus on yourself. I know you want a part-
ner, but this is a great time to focus on the
parts of life that make you happy with or
without romantic love. Hobbies. Friends.
Maybe family or travel. Fill your life with
things to look forward to that will remain
part of you, regardless of the state of your
dating life. Also, consider talking to a
mental health professional about those
experiences in the middle. If there’s trau-
ma, you want to figure out what it means
— and how to live with it.
I know you’re thinking about the flow-
ers on the car and, more recently, the
blocked number. You’re wondering
whether a little more effort and openness
could have changed the fate of these rela-
tionships. In the case of your marriage, he
should have shown up. As for this recent
breakup, yeah, he does know where you
live. Maybe you would have received an-
other phone call with more of an explana-
tion, but ... the end result would have
been the same.
You did what was best for you. You’re
doing your best now. These experiences
don’t represent everything that’s possible.
MEREDITH
READERS RESPOND:
Ugh. I am so sorry, that is awful. The
only thing I can say is that when I noticed
I started repeating relationship patterns
with multiple people, I got a therapist
and that has helped a lot. I saw where I
was creating patterns and I am working
to unlearn them and create new healthier
patterns. I encourage you to consider the
same; really, it’s so empowering! Good
luck to you.
HELLOWORLD13
This line stood out to me: “It’s been 10
years since our divorce and I wonder
sometimes if we could have saved that
marriage.” He left you without a reason;
how could you save something he didn’t
want to save? Remember, he wanted out.
You have only had two failed relation-
ships, that’s not a bad number, and you
aren’t doomed.
LEFTYLUCY
“When does it make sense to try to
reach out to a guy who leaves without
much explanation?” Never.
