The rivalry between the Dal-
las and Lake-Lehman high
school swimming and diving
teams is a little friendlier than
one might think.
The Lake-Lehman team,
which started competing in the
Wyoming Valley Conference in
2007, entered into an agreement
withDallas this year toutilize its
pool for home meets. The team
practices at Misericordia Uni-
versitys Anderson Sports and
Health Complex.
Nancy Edkins, coach of the
Lake-Lehman swim, said the
team previously held all of its
swimmeets and practices at Mi-
sericordia University, but due to
the lack of diving facilities, there
was no diving team.
The Dallas pool, which is lo-
cated in the middle school, is a
larger facility equipped with sev-
eral diving boards. Erin Cooper
Yurko was hired late last year to
coach Lake-Lehman divers.
The BlackKnights compete at
Dallas when the Mountaineer
swimmers and divers are at an
away meet. Lake-Lehman divers
always trainat the Dallas facility.
Edkins, who is also principal
of Lake-Noxen Elementary
School, met with Matt Stretan-
ski, former Dallas swimming
coachandcurrent pool manager,
and the districts athletic direc-
tor to work out a schedule.
Were two neighboring dis-
tricts we should be friends,
said Edkins. The coaches here
are fair with us. (Dallas) always
comes first because its their fa-
cility.
Stretanski, who coached the
Dallas swim team for 14 years,
said the Dallas team had similar
issues before the natatorium
was built at the middle school in
2002. The teamheld practices at
Misericordia andcouldnt have a
diving teamdue to the lack of fa-
cilities.
When we wanted to start div-
ing, Wyoming Valley West,
Wyoming Area, Wilkes-Barre Ar-
ea and other districts were very
supportive, and worked with us
to get us practice time, he said.
One year, we had our home
meets at Nanticoke.
Stretanski, who is also a histo-
ry teacher at the middle school,
said when Lake-Lehman offi-
cials approached himand others
about the possibility of using the
Dallas pool, he said it was like
paying it forward.
We have a good relationship
with Lake-Lehman, but wed do
it for anyone, he said.

Due to overwhelming vol-
umes, the Dallas Area Munici-
pal Authority has increased it
recycling collection to every
week as of Feb. 20.
Larry Spaciano, executive di-
rector of DAMA, attributes the
increase in recycling collection
to the authoritys new single
stream recycling program. Cus-
tomers no longer have to sep-
arate materials like plastic,
glass and cardboard, making re-
cycling easier than ever.
Weve collected about 15
more tons this January com-
pared to last January, said Spa-
ciano.
Spaciano said the increased
recycling collection will also en-
courage customers to recycle
more often because of the quick
turnaround.
It was more difficult for
them to take out that much re-
cycling to the curb at one time,
he said. We looked at it overall
and said its probably going to
be more cost-effective for us
and a lot easier for the residents
if we do it on a weekly basis.
Spaciano said recycling isnt
just good for the environment
its also going to save DAMA
customers money in the long
run.
We have an agreement; we
take it down to Northeast Recy-
cling Services and then, de-
pending on the market, theyll
pay us a certain amount for the
recycling, he said. The bot-
tom line is we never have to
pay to get rid of it, even if the
bottom of the recycling market
drops out. It doesnt cost us
anything to get rid of it, so its a
win-win for us.
Before DAMA took on its
own solid waste and recycling
collection, whatever recyclable
materials collected were the
property of the hauler, Spaciano
said. Therefore, when compa-
nies took the materials to the
recycling center, whatever mon-
ey they received for the materi-
als was theirs to keep.
Now DAMA is reaping the
benefits of its own program.
The authority received its first
check in January for about
$3,600 all of which will go
back into the program and
eventually save customers mon-
ey.
Spaciano said, hopefully, the
amounts of those checks will
increase due to the more fre-
quent recycling collection.
Bill Feher, DAMAs solid
waste supervisor, hopes to in-
crease the recycling opportuni-
ties for residents, including pro-
viding outlets for recycling elec-
tronics and tires. He also said
the return on the program will
allow DAMA to stabilize its
rates.
Spaciano said, despite the in-
creased collection, there wont
be additional costs for manpow-
er or vehicles because the crews
are out collecting garbage every
day anyway.
It will even itself out, he
said.
Spaciano said convenience
and the way the program is de-
signed has encouraged custom-
ers to increase their recycling
habits which, in turn, benefits
the entire Back Mountain. He
hopes the program will contin-
ue with an educational aspect
to promote recycling through-
out the community.
SINGLE STREAM
RECYCLING
With DAMAs new program,
customers can mix recyclable
materials in the same bin.

books, juice and milk cartons,
junk mail, newspapers and in-
serts, magazines and brochures,
multi 3-ply paper, white paper,
paperboard boxes, phonebooks
and catalogs, plastic milk jugs,
plastic soda bottles, pots and
pans, school papers, small met-
als, tin cans and water bottles.
These are NOT OK to recy-
cle: drinking glasses; frozen
food, ice cream or frozen juice

Calling all local professionals
Dallas High School students
want to hear from you.
The Dallas High School guid-
ance department recently
launched its Career Spotlight
Speaker Series, in which local
professionals, Dallas graduates
or parents of Dallas students
are invited to speak to high
school students about a partic-
ular job field.
Guidance counselor Robyn
Jones said the series is part of a
new directive in career prepara-
tion that will eventually be
mandated by the state Depart-
ment of Education.
We actually plan to be well
ahead of the game, said Jones.
Along with the speaker se-
ries, the guidance department
at the new high school features
a career resource center, com-
plete with a group counseling
room and computers available
for students to explore colleges
and career paths on their own.
The philosophy is that
youre here at Dallas High
School to get an education to
prepare you for your future con-
tribution to society, said Jones.
If you make it relevant to the
student, the student takes own-
ership of their high school jour-
ney.
The speaker series has al-
ready had three programs in
the following fields: dentistry,
video game arts and engineer-
ing. The idea is to bring in Dal-
las alums or parents of current
students. Jones said having lo-
cals explain their career paths
is more encouraging for kids.
Were trying to get the
home, school, community - that
dynamic triangle - to get to-
gether, said Jones.
Jones hopes the program will
eventually become self-sustain-
ing, and she would like to see
the entire school participate in
helping students realize their
futures.
For example, Jones said, a
person in a science field could
talk to several science classes in
a day. Right now, the program
is held twice a month for a few
students at one time of the day
in the guidance department.
Then you have the entire
school involved in career plan-
ning, not just the guidance de-
partment, she said.
The most difficult part in cre-
ating this speaker series is find-
ing the speakers, and Jones
hopes community members in
various fields will eventually
begin to volunteer to speak to
students.
Lets bring people back who
graduated to see our brand-
spanking beautiful new build-
ing and to give back to the
school that gave so much to
(them), she said. And not just
graduates, but people in the
community who live back here.
What better teacher is there
than experience?
Students seem to agree. Sev-
eral students said they have
benefited from the program, in-
cluding senior Jess Adams, who
hasnt decided on his career yet
but has a better idea due to the
speaker series.

The Rev. Roger Griffith
knows he has talent. Hes been
part of the band, Eddie Day &
the Starfires, as a bass player
since the late 1960s.
He knows his church has tal-
ent. Trinity Presbyterian Church
on Irem Road in Dallas has had
a praise band for the past seven
years, and the group even revis-
es classic hymns to breathe new
life into older music.
But it wasnt until Feb. 17 that
Griffith, who has been the pas-
tor at Trinity for seven years af-
ter being away from the area,
learned that the surrounding
community has talent, too.
The church sponsored a talent
show, called Back Mountain Has
Talent, to give locals a chance to
let their varied skills shine.
Auditions were held in five
different categories: vocal, in-
strumental, dance, poetry and
Broadway.
Griffith got the idea to host
the talent show after judging
the open mic nights during Dal-
las Days before the Dallas Har-
vest Festival for the last three
years.
Music has been important to
me all my life, and its a big part
of what we do here (at the
church), he said. Music is very
therapeutic and it transcends all
ages and all barriers, across de-
nominations.
Alecia Evans, 23, of Dallas,
anxiously waited in the front
pew to perform with her boy-
friend, 30-year-old Robert Wil-
liams, of Dallas.
Evans has been singing for
much of her life, ever since she
was a little girl singing along
with her fathers band.
I cant even remember the
name of the band, she said.
Williams plays the guitar
while the pair sings, and they
perform covers along with origi-
nal music, too. The furthest
theyve traveled for a gig is At-
lantic City, New Jersey.
The pair performed Who
Says You Cant Go Home? by
Bon Jovi.
Its nice that theres finally
something around here for peo-
ple who want to perform, said
Evans. There should definitely
be some more outlets for people
to show what theyve got.
The girls in the RJG Latino
Multicultural Dancers group,
based in Wilkes-Barre, seek out
ways they can express them-
selves throughout the northeast.
Kimmy Martinez, 13, of
Wilkes-Barre, said the group
was formed about four years ago
to keep at-risk kids off the
streets. Nine of the girls per-
formed on Feb. 17, but the
group is much larger.
Martinez said the group
makes its own costumes for per-
formances. The furthest the
girls have traveled for a perform-
ance was to Lopez, but theyve
also performed at the Fine Arts
Fiesta in downtown Wilkes-
Barre and at Kings College.
Its basically to show our cul-
ture, said Martinez.
Kendall Mosley, 13, of Wilkes-
Barre, had a bit of trouble when
she first got on the stage for her
audition.
Technical difficulties kept her
silent onstage for a few mo-
ments but not long after, she
was belting out the Christian
hymn, How Can I Keep From
Singing?
Mosley, who has been singing
since she was 7 years old, heard
about the talent show through
her uncle Stephen Perillo.
Perillo, whos part of Making
a Difference Ministries, also per-
formed during the talent show
with Barbara Roberts under the
name BLEST.
Mosleys mother, Jaclyn, said
their family is very musically in-
clined, but Kendall wasnt al-
ways interested in expressing

goers had the opportunity to en-
joy a presentation by naturalist
Rebecca Lesko called A Year in
the Life of an Eagle. Wildlife
photographers Jim and Joan
Borden displayed their work
and discussed their experiences
watching bald eagles. Joe De-
Marco, an expert bird watcher,
helped attendees spot resident
and migrant eagles at the Sus-

Natural gas issues were at the
forefront of the board of super-
visors meeting on Tuesday, as of-
ficials discussed the replacement
of the Transco pipeline and revis-
ing its zoning ordinance.
The township office received
notice Tuesday from the Wil-
liams-owned Transco interstate
pipeline that two replacements
of the line will begin in July and
conclude in mid-September.
Transco will replace a 2,044-
foot section that runs under-
neath Hildebrandt Road and a
193-foot section that runs be-
tween Yalick Road and Highland
Boulevard.
Resident Jane Tolomello asked
the board whether the pipelines
current condition poses a prob-
lem to residents.
I would like to know the rea-
son why, because if its a matter
of some dangers that theyre
waiting until July to do if its a
matter of a leak waiting to hap-
pen I think it would be nice for
them to notify the municipality
as well as the residents living
nearby, she said.
Township Engineer Thomas
Doughton said the company may
be changing the class of the pipe,
which determines the thickness.
Supervisor Bill Grant said he
spoke to a Williams official about
the project who told him the line
was tested with a smart pig, a de-
vice that runs through the line to
collect detailed information, in
2010 and it was deemed to be in
good condition.
Grant said the Williams engi-
neer also told him the replace-
ment is part of standard mainte-
nance on the line.
They assured methere were
no problems, said Grant.
The Transco gas pipeline runs
from Texas to New York.
In Dallas Township, Williams
Field Services LLCrecently com-
pleted its 33-mile Springville
Gathering Line from Susquehan-
na County, which taps into the
Transco.
Another gas company, Chief
Gathering LLC, is in the process
of constructing a gathering line
to connect to the Transco line lo-
cated in Dallas Township.
Doughton told residents the
Springville project is about 95
percent complete and vegetation
will be planted on the right-of-
way along Sedlar Road and in
other areas in late March or early
April.
Theyre very sophisticated
planting schedules, and its
strictly for storm water con-
trols, he said.
Solicitor Thomas Brennan
said the township must begin

The Back Mountain Commu-
nity Partnership voted to join
the Back Mountain Chamber of
Commerce at a meeting Feb. 16.
Lynn Banta, co-founder of the
chamber, presented information
to the partnership about the or-
ganization and its inclusion of
governmental bodies, nonprofit
agencies and educational facil-
ities.
The plan for the chamber is
that there wouldnt just be com-
merce, said Banta. There is a
synergism between the commu-
nity and also the cultural re-
sources in the Back Mountain.
Banta read a letter from the
chambers board of directors,
which explained the two
groups similar missions in
keeping intact the growth,
prosperity and safety of the
Back Mountain.
The group unanimously vot-
ed to join the chamber. The
partnership consists of Dallas
Borough and Dallas, Franklin,
Jackson, Kingston and Lehman
townships. Representatives
from Jackson and Lehman
townships were not present at
the meeting.
Lehman Township is also part
of the chamber as an individual
municipality.
Chairman James Reino Jr., of
Kingston Township, said being
part of the organization allows
for increased communication
between businesses and the mu-
nicipalities in which theyre lo-
cated.
In most cases, communities
dont hear from businesses un-
less they are applying for some-
thing or are expanding, and
then there is no input until its
too late, said Reino, who will
serve as the groups representa-
tive for the chamber. I think
this is the first chamber like this
Ive heard of in the state.
In other news, the group dis-
cussed earned income tax col-
lection within individual munic-
ipalities.
Mike Prokopchak, of Fran-
klin Township, said there have
been instances in which resi-
dents addresses dont reflect
where they actually live, and
this could result in the wrong
municipality collecting earned
income taxes.
For example, I live in Fran-
klin Township, but my address
says ... Dallas, he said.
He said that sort of confusion
hurts smaller municipalities like
Franklin Township, which has
an annual budget of about
$300,000.
The group agreed to ask a
representative from the Don
Wilkinson Agency to discuss
this and other issues at its next
meeting.
The next Back Mountain
Community Partnership meet-
ing will be held at 3 p.m. Thurs-
day, March 15 in Insalaco Hall
at Misericordia University, 301
Lake St., Dallas Township.

The township was awarded a
$75,000 Community Develop-
ment Block Grant to pave a por-
tion of the township roads, the
Board of Supervisors an-
nounced Monday.
Its considerably less than
weve gotten in previous years,
but all money is welcome
here, said Supervisor Doug
Ide.
Municipalities can apply for
the grant, which is funded by
the U.S. Department of Hous-
ing and Urban Development,
every three years. The amount
of the last block grant the town-
ship received was $99,000, the
board said. The money will be
used to pave roads in the Lake
Silkworth area and possibly
others in the township.
Were going to see how far
we can stretch ($75,000), said
Ide, adding that the grant
would have to be combined
with township funds.
After the meeting, Ide gave
an informal tour of the town-
ships new $750,000, 120-by-60-
foot garage. The insulated pole
barn has six bays with automat-
ic doors, radiant heated floors,
a separate storage room, future
locker area and a spacious
break room, complete with a
full kitchen. Township funds
were used to build the garage,
which is large enough to house
all the townships road equip-
ment and police cruisers, Ide
said.
An open house, which will in-
clude a tour of the garage and
the renovated municipal build-
ing, will take place in the
spring.

A consultant spoke to borough
council and residents Tuesday
night about the proposed float-
ing wetland islands.
Fred Lubnow, Ph.D., director
of aquatic programs for Prince-
ton Hydro of Pennsylvania and
New Jersey, said the islands,
which are made of recycled plas-
tic, come in three different sizes.
The 5-foot and 60-foot islands
are globular in shape, while the
250-square-foot islands are more
rectangular with curves, giving
them the most natural appear-
ance.
Lubnow noted three benefits
the islands would bring to the
lake.
One is nutrient removal, with
each island removing 10 pounds
of phosphorous per year. One
pound of phosphorous can gen-
erate 1,100 pounds of algae.
The islands would enhance
fishing in the area and aid in na-
tive vegetation growth.
The islands would be an-
chored in place by cinder block
and rope. Residents could ask to
have an island, which can last for
up to 10 years, placed near their
property.
Lubnow also noted the bor-
ough is able to secure grants for
its projects because Harveys
Lake is consistent in maintain-
ing its structures. Once the bor-
ough has completed a model for
reducing phosphorous in the
lake, it will become eligible for
funding to begin a dredging pro-
ject. With two more grants re-
maining, the phosphorous reduc-
tion should be complete by the
end of 2012.
Resident Carole Culver said
she is unhappy with the recy-
cling pickup. Culver said she
takes the time to sort and tie
newspapers, only to find that
they are mixed in with regular
trash. Councilwoman Amy Wil-
liams agreed.
Councilwoman Michelle
Boice voiced her disappoint-
ment with state Rep. Karen Bo-
backs decision to vote in favor of
the gas drilling bill , which takes
away any rights the borough had
in regards to drilling. Boice add-
ed that the bill is a gift to the
gas industry, but a slap to the ci-
tizens.
She urged all residents to get
involved with this issue, and said
the gas industry is now doing to
the land what the coal mining in-
dustry did in past years.

YOUR SPACE
By Samantha Weaver
It was English philosopher Francis Bacon who made the following
sage observation: The root of all superstition is that men observe
when a thing hits, but not when it misses.
Im sure youve seen photos of those picturesque covered
bridges. It seems that they would have provided a welcome haven for
people driving buggies caught out in the rain. You may be surprised
to learn, though, that the bridges werent designed with a roof for
the comfort of travelers. Being made of wood in an era before pro-
tective sealants, the bridges themselves needed to be protected
from the elements.
Most frogs lay their eggs in the water; that way, when the tad-
poles hatch they are already in their element. The red-eyed tree frog,
however, protects its eggs from aquatic predators by attaching its
eggs to the underside of leaves that hang out over a body of water.
Once the eggs hatch, the tadpoles fall into the water.
The next time you travel to the United Kingdom, if you visit the
university towns of Cambridge or Oxford, you should keep off the
grass. Professors are the only ones allowed to walk on most of the
green swards in those towns.
In ancient Rome, it was widely believed that holding in gas could
cause a person to catch a disease or become poisoned. This was such
a concern to public health that Emperor Claudius went so far as to
pass a law making it legal to fart at banquets.
Have you ever known someone who keeps making the same
error over and over again despite being corrected? The next time
you run into this person, youll know what to call him or her: a mump-
simus.

The two we have
arent working very

wouldnt hurt to have
a third one if it had

An Independent party
would be ideal. The
parties are too polar-
ized right now and
need new ideas.
Shaun Fassett

Just two parties. A
third takes away from
the choice the people
make and it is usually
a weak candidate.

An unsuspecting woman cast
her fishing line into a Twin Cities
lake recently only to reel in a daz-
zling diamond ring, which had
been attached to the hook by pro-
fessional divers underwater.
An Ikea shopping trip for an-
other couple ended with the fu-
ture groom breaking into song
and dance before getting on one
knee.
To stage his proposal, a self-
proclaimed thrill-seeker enlist-
ed the help of a pair of Minneapo-
lis cops to fake his arrest for hom-
icide in front of his future bride.
Those stories may be rare, but
more people are finding elabo-
rate, sometimes extreme ways to
propose marriage, wedding in-
dustry experts say. For many
couples, the marriage proposal
has become part of the wedding
build-up, complete with paparaz-
zi-style photography to capture
the moment, and often, an audi-
ence.
Some grooms-to-be are even
hiring a proposal planner - for a
fee of $2,000 to $10,000 - who all
but promises that the bride-to-be
will say yes.
Im only getting married
once, so I wanted this to be an
engagement to remember, Ryan
Calhoun, 28, said of his shock-
ing arrest proposal, which he
said had little romance but plen-
ty of adrenaline. It was a little
risky, and it takes the right wom-
an to do something like this.
From engagements that create
public spectacles to private, jet-
setting fairy tales, popping the
question is not just becoming a
bigger deal. Its big business, too.
Amy Lynch isnt surprised.
The Nashville author and re-
searcher of generations Y and Z
said couples are getting married
later in life and typically living
together before theyre engaged,
therefore demystifying the pro-
posal process - to the point that
they feel the need to turn it into
an event.
Marriage isnt the usual mark-
er of adulthood that it used to
be, Lynch said.
Its a bigger decision to make,
so the proposal and the wedding
have accorded more impor-
tance.
Local jewelers say popping the
question with a ring is no longer
enough. Most women want to
pick out their engagement rings,
yet nearly 70 percent of women
surveyed feel the Surprise fac-
tor is essential to the perfect
proposal, according to a joint sur-
vey by theknot.com and Mens
Health magazine.
Having been in the business
since the1970s, Rich Nordstrom,
manager of Bergstrom Jewelers
in St. Louis Park, said hes
pleased to see that guys are go-
ing the distance to propose, be-
cause it hasnt always been that
way.
This is something youre go-
ing to remember forever and
reminisce about, he said. Since
she already knows shes getting a
ring, theres more pressure to
surprise her so that moment is
burned into her memory forev-
er.
Meaghan Butzer, 31, of Min-
neapolis, says her fairy tale en-
gagement is the topic of conver-
sation at the Edina, Minn., salon
where she works. How he pro-
posed is usually one of the first
things inquiring minds want to
know.
Butzers fiance, an airline pilot,
surprised her with a recent trip
to Mackinac Island in Michigan
via an open-cockpit airplane that
was used as a military trainer in
World War II.
He put so much thought and
effort into it - it felt like a fairy
tale, Butzer said. I wasnt ex-
pecting it at all. ... I wasnt wear-
ing clothes suited for oil to be
dripping everywhere, but hed
packed my flight suit.

Jason Dailey and his wife Shelly, of Richfield, Minnesota have
been married for three years. Jason, who spent months forming
the perfect marriage proposal, gave her a painting of the very
spot where they were standing, Buckingham Fountain in Chicago.
The painting depicted a couple wearing the same clothes as Jason
and Shelly and the man on a bended knee.
There are new rules of engagement
By AIMEE TJADER
Star Tribune
EmmaRosenis soontobecome
EmmaSugerman. Rosen, 25, who
works in health care marketing,
will legally take the last name of
her husband-to-be, medical stu-
dent Noah Sugerman, when the
two marry this summer.
Vanessa Messersmith, 32-year-
oldowner of thehipclothingshop
Blacklist Vintage, took the name
of her husband Jeremy, a musi-
cian, when they married six years
ago. Both consider themselves to
be feminists, and neither made
the decision lightly.
The majority of married wom-
eninAmericahavealways chosen
to legally assume their grooms
last names. But at the end of the
20th century, more women re-
tained their maiden names as a
way of retainingindividual identi-
ty.
A widely-noted Harvard study
of college-educatedwomenfound
that between 2 and 4 percent in
1975 kept their names. Those
numbers sharply increased
through the 1970s and 1980s be-
fore declining in the 1990s to just
below20 percent in 2001.

The staff of Misericordia
Universitys student newspa-
per, The Highlander, was
awarded two Keystone Press
Awards by the Pennsylvania
Newspaper Association
(PNA).
Writers April Dulsky of Dal-
las Township, Josh Horton of
Pittston and Julia Truax of
Millville, received a second-
place award in the category of
On-Going News Coverage for
a series of reports on evacua-
tion and student recovery ef-
forts by the Misericordia Uni-
versity campus community
following the historic flood-
ing caused by Hurricane
Irene and Tropical Storm Lee
in September 2011.
Misericordia senior Amber
Gulla of Plains Township re-
ceived honorable mention in
the category of Public Ser-
vice/Enterprise Package.
Her article, Where the
Green Grass Shouldnt
Grow, was published Oct.
20, 2011, and inspired a stu-
dent campaign that led to im-
provements to the building
that houses the campus com-
muter lounge.
Dulskys Sept. 22 article,
Picking Up the Pieces To-
gether, detailed the experi-
ences of students and staff
who were personally impact-
ed by the unprecedented
flooding in September 2011,
including those from the har-
dest-hit towns of Blooms-
burg, Tunkhannock and West
Pittston.
Dulsky is a senior majoring
in communications and En-
glish. She is the web editor
for the newspaper. A frequent
contributor since her fresh-
man year, Dulsky also won an
award for her enterprise news
story, Loophole Lassos Stu-
dents Health Care in 2011.
Hortons submission,
Open Arms for Evacuees,
published on Sept. 13, cov-
ered the anguish and appre-
ciation of the flood evacuees
housed temporarily at the Mi-
sericordia University Ander-
son Sports and Health Cen-
ter.
I just happened to be on
campus at the time the eva-
cuees were starting to arrive,
and I was able to cover the
news story as it was happen-
ing, he said. It was a tough
article to write. It was so sad -
the people were so frightened
and worried about what was
happening to their homes -
yet, at the same time, they
were so appreciative of hav-
ing a place to stay.
Truax authored the article,
Residential Cleanup Trucks
On, on Oct. 5, 2011. She re-
ported on recovery efforts by
Misericordia students in Myo
Beach, a small community
along the Susquehanna River
in Wyoming County that was
decimated by the flooding.
I went to Myo Beach with
a team of Misericordia stu-
dents organized by Campus
Ministry, said Truax, the
content editor and senior ma-
joring in communications
and psychology. The people
were so appreciative of the
volunteer help and told me
that they didnt know how
they would ever get back into
their houses without the help
of the Misericordia stu-
dents.
The Misericordia students
will attend the Keystone
Press Awards banquet to be
held in Hershey in March,
along with editor-in-chief
Katlin Bunton, a senior com-
munications major specializ-
ing in journalism and public
relations and print editor El-
len Hoffman, a sophomore
communications major, both
of Kingston.

Sports
High school basketball season is winding down
Lake-Lehman girls season ends while Mountaineer boys continue to roll
Dallas had three players re-
ach double figures to defeat
Tunkhannock, 49-45, to cap-
ture the Wyoming Valley
Conference Division II boys
basketball title Tuesday night
at Lake-Lehman High School.
Dallas (14-8) overall won
its first WVC divisional title
in a very long by winning the
first-half title and then stum-
bling to a 30-4 finish in the
second half of the season.
The latter allowed Tunkhan-
nock (14-9) to gain second-
half honors.
Dallas senior guard Paul
Brace and Bob Saba led Dal-
las with 12 points each while
Jason Simonovich added 11
more.
Saba played a more impor-
tant role defensively as he
shut down Tunkhannock
freshman Austin Yanora, who
had 25 points, including
eight three-pointers when the
two teams had met four days
earlier. In Tuesdays game, he
had a lone three-pointer and
attempted only two shots.
Tunkhannocks big guy, 6-
foot-10 senior James Hawk,
dominated early. Less than
four minutes into the game,
he had six points and three
rebounds. By halftime, he
had eight points and nine
boards.
After that, his lone second-
half field goal attempt was an
outside jumper with 1:48 re-
maining and the Tigers trail-
ing, 44-38.
Hawk finished with a dou-
ble-double 10 points and 12
rebounds. Doug Miller sin-
gled out Christ Ostrums de-
fense on the Tunkhannock
center but there were a few
times when Hawk was guard-
ed solely by 6-foot Donnie
Behm yet didnt get the ball.
Both teams were scheduled
to resume their seasons Fri-
day in the District 2 Class 3A
playoffs. Tunkhannock was
set to play North Pocono at
Pittston Area High School
while Dallas planned to travel
to Carbondale High School to
play Abington Heights.

point game midway through the
third quarter to defeat Lake-Leh-
man, 60-42, in the Wyoming Val-
ley Conference Division III girls
basketball championship Mon-
day at Holy Redeemer High
School.
There were four lead changes
andthree ties ina tightly-contest-
ed first half. The game stayed
close well into the third quarter,
and the Black knights (17-67)
worked a five-point play to cut
the Nanticoke lead to 25-24.
Emily Sutton put home an of-
fensive reboundandearneda free
throwwhich she sank. On the en-
suing inbound play, a miscom-
munication between the Troja-
nettes put the entry pass directly
into Nikki Sutliffs hands for an
uncontested layup.
The miscue sparked Nanti-
coke, which scored14 of the next
17 points and the Nanticoke lead
was extended to 37-25.
Sutton paced Lake-Lehman
with 14 points and had seven re-
bounds. Cayle Spencer added 12
points and eight rebounds and
Sutliff posted 11 points. Carol
Mosier had six rebounds for the
lady Black Knights.

Though the Lake-Lehman
group is small (there are 16
swimmers and two divers), Ed-
kins saidtheteamis full of talent
and potential.
Stretanski noticed a differ-
ence in the Dallas team after it
began using its own pool.
It gives them a comfort level
and confidence, he said of the
young swimmers. They feel se-
cure and they know where
theyre going. Its a big help for
the kids, and thats why were all
here.
Junior Lake-Lehman swim-
mer Samantha Sabol, 17, of Sha-
vertown, said using the Dallas
facilities has made life as a com-
petitive swimmer just a little bit
easier.
It was hard to schedule prac-
tice and meets when we were at
Misericordia because we had to
work around their schedule,
she said. I swam here (at Dal-
las) whenI was younger andthis
is my favorite pool. I think we
have more people coming to the
meets, too, because the benches
are bigger.
Edkins said having a pool
built at the junior/senior high
school in Lehman Township is
just a dream, but the current sit-
uation is working well and she
hopes it will continue in the fu-
ture.
People are cooperating with
it and were so grateful for the
support, she said.
Edkins also said the long-
standing rivalry between Dallas
and Lake-Lehman still exists,
but the teams are more like
friendly foes.
I dont think that will ever go
away, but we still figure out how
to get along inthe long run, she
said.

residents Diane and Steve
Thompson, who are engineers.
Engineering is something
Ive considered as one of the ca-
reer choices I might want to
look into, he said.
Adams enjoys math and is al-
so considering careers in archi-
tecture and teaching.
Mr. Thompson talked about
how many kids go in choosing
one section of engineering but
may end up switching to anoth-
er, he said. It just shows you
can go into something and fig-
ure things out and it ends up
being different than you thought
you have to keep your mind
open.
Adams realized the kind of
education he needed to be an
engineer and what specific skills
are required for the field.
He said the presentation
made him more inclined to pur-
sue the field because he knows
what its all about, though he ad-
mits hes still undecided.
Senior Josh Shilanski, of Sha-
vertown, chose to attend the
dentistry speaker program with
Dr. Duane Sprau of Clements
Dentistry because hes always
been interested in becoming a
dentist.
He said the speaker program
only reinforced his desire to en-
ter into the field, and Shilanski
ended up learning more about
the career as a result.
This actually provided the
most information out of every-
thing Ive done, he said. It gave
insight on what he went through
to become a dentist and what he
goes through on a daily basis as
a dentist.
Jones said 17-year-old Shilan-
ski has been accepted to Temple
University in Philadelphia,
which has a very reputable den-
tistry program.
Seventeen-year-old Megan Re-
dlich, of Dallas, is one of Dallas
High Schools tech gurus un-
der the advisement of technol-
ogy director Bill Gartrell.
As a lover of technology and
art, Redlich thought it would be
worthwhile to attend the video
game art and design speaker se-
ries with Dallas graduate Joseph
Stachnik. Redlich wants to pur-
sue a career in digital animation.
It inspired me more because
of the sort of things (Stachnik)
does and what he works with,
she said.
Redlich plans to attend a
school in Florida after gradua-
tion. She said the speaker pro-
gram only increased her passion
for the field.
Its always more helpful to
hear something firsthand than
to read it somewhere, and its
always a confirmation of things,
she said.

She wanted to dance, but
was too afraid to perform, so
she decided to sing, said Jaclyn
Mosley. I couldnt believe it.
Kendall enjoys singing be-
cause its a way to express
(her) feelings and send a mess-
age through each song.
Jaclyn is glad there are venues
like Trinity Presbyterian Church
for performers in the communi-
ty because its a very family-
oriented way to spend an eve-
ning.

nance due to the passage of
House Bill 1950 in the state leg-
islature.
The bill, signed into law last
week, updates the Oil and Gas
Act of 1984 and one aspect of
the law is to remove land-use
controls from local govern-
ments.
Brennan said the ordinance
amendment passed in October,
which set detailed regulations
on natural gas and oil develop-
ment in the township, would
need to be scrapped. He sug-
gested the supervisors work
with planning consultant Jack
Varaly in the creation of a new
ordinance.
Brennan added that agree-
ments made with natural gas
companies do not apply to the
newlaw. Last year the township
negotiated two agreements
with Chief and Williams to spec-
ify terms for their pipeline and
metering station projects.
The board also heard from
resident Kerrie Anderson, who
has been trying to prove that the
township owns her street, Sky-
view Drive, for the last three
years.
The street is part of NewGoss
Manor and Anderson said the
township road department does
not plow snow or complete
maintenance on the roadway,
though she believes it is part of
the township.
She said it is a dangerous sit-
uation for her family. She also
saidshe has documents to prove
the street is owned by the town-
ship.
The board had tabled a deci-
sion about what to decide in An-
dersons circumstances at its
last meeting, but Brennan said
the board decided Tuesday that
the road does not belong to the
township and, therefore, is ineli-
gible to receive service.
Andersonsaidshe will contin-
ue to fight the decision through
legal actions.
In other news, the board
Approved a motion to ad-
vertise for 25 40-yard waste con-

the championship.
Shultz took second place
and had two pins and a 5-3

In the Rock Rec Center

and three tough close match-
es.
The boys will compete in
