Cary did some college hockey play by play for the ULowell Chiefs on WJUL in
the late 70s and very early 80s with a guy named Bob McCann.  (Both did a
top notch job.)  I think he was freelance/volunteering just for the fun of
it.  My weak memory tells me that Cary worked in Maine radio for a time, as
well.  This may be a return to Maine with very different terrain this time
around.
