Rass Joseph Ide, Chief of Police, was unofficially notified of the decision shortly before the Back Mountain Horse Show which the volunteers had agreed to police. Lacking official no- tice, members of the squad ably per- formed traffic and parking duty at the show, winning much praise for their efficiency. Organized last spring at the sug- gestion of Chief Ide, who was at- tempting to patrol Lake Silkworth and part of Harvey's Lake with one man, approximately twenty volunteers were sworn in by Alan Major, Lehman Justice of the Peace. Interest in the organization remained high with monthly meetings and a police school well attended. A dance at Harvey's Lake last fall proved successful and it was planned to continue the event annually to help defray expenses of uniforms, parts of which are already in use. Township Supervisor Mark Croop has moved to Nanticoke and submitted his resignation at the last meeting. Supervisor Fred Elston has said he is in favor of keeping the volunteer, non-paid, organization. Supervisor Nelson Rogers opposed to the force there is now no majority and final action rests on what steps are taken to fill the vacancy left by Mr. Croop. A meeting of the police association will be held Monday evening at the home of Fred Davenport, Meeker, to determine what course the police will take.

Woop The following article on Sena- tor T. Newell Wood's service in the State Senate is submitted im- partially. It was written at the request of The Post by our Harris burg representative who has been in daily contact with the Capitol during the session just closed. —Editor T. Newell Wood, Alderson R.D. 1, State Senator from the Twentieth Dis trict, a part of Luzerne County, is one of the newcomers to the State Legislature. President and general manager of the Pressed Steel Com- pany, he was elected to office in 1946. Although a newcomer to the Legis lature, he has been named to member- ship on five of the Senate's standing committees, on one of which he is vice chairman, the fairly important Banking Committee. Other committees on which he serves include the Com- mittee on Executive Nominations; La- bor and Industry Committee; Military Affairs and Aeronautics Committee, and the Public Health and Welfare Committee. His legislative ventures during the past session found him sponsoring a total of 14 bills in the upper house, along with three resolutions. Of these bills, six have been passed by the Legislature and sent to the Governor for signature, with four signed into law to date. Of those signed by the Chief Execu- tive, one Wood measure provides for the establishment of dates on which financial assistance shall begin for those persons provided assistance as typhoid carriers. Another measure now signed into law prescribes the procedure to be used for counties of the second to eighth class in entering into con- tracts for the establishment, operation and maintenance of airports, and land- ing fields. A third measure not yet approved by the Governor concerns the same act but authorizes eighth class counties to acquire, operate, and lease aviation landing fields and airports and to use lands appropriated at tax sales for such uses, and to enter into joint action with other political subdivisions for such similar purposes. The fourth measure okayed by Duff would require reports of the daily examinations made by mine foremen of working places in mines while work- men are actually engaged at such places. Such reports are to be counter- signed by the mine foreman in case such inspection is made by the assist ant. A fifth bill approved by the Legis- lature as introduced by Wood, and which has been signed by the Chief Executive provides for establishment of a Veterans Administration hospital on a tract of land containing approxi- mately 51 acres in the City of Wilkes- Barre. Three resolutions introduced by Wood were all approved by the Sen- ate. One resolution provided that no bills should be presented to the Senate after the appointment of stand- ing committees of the Senate. The other two resolutions pertained to the death of Adrian H. Jones, 20th district Senator who died June 12, 1946. Wood was named chairman of a six-man committee to draft suitable resolutions on the death of Jones, which were subsequently presented at a special meeting of the Senate held May 7. The resolutions also pro- vided for printing the memorial exer- cise in book form for use of the Sen- ate. Impartial Harrisburg observers class him as “a solid Republican but an independent thinker. His ‘economic status may afford him the time to advance far in political circles. Has a wealth of possibilities.” Lehman Teacher Becomes Utility Home Economist (Continued from Page One) She has taught Home Economics at Huntington Mills, Dallas Town- ship, and Lehman Township High Schools. She organized the first can- ning center in Luzerne County at Ashley, and also organized at Lehman a canning center which was considered one of the most successful in the State last year. Mrs. Orr in her new position suc- ceeds Mrs. Bertha Phillips Howe, for- merly the Corporation's Home Econo- mist, who retired January 1, 1947, because of ill health. : THE POST, FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1947 ~ HaroLp E. FLACK The following article on Repre- sentative Harold E. Flack’s serv. ice in the State Legislature, just adjourned, is submitted impartial ly. It was written, at the request of The Post, by our Harrisburg representative who has been in daily contact with the Capitol during the session just closed. — Editor Harold E. Flack, Dallas, member of the State House of Representatives! from the Sixth District, Luzerne Coun- ty, is one of the Republican members of the lower branch, well liked by those with whom he serves. He is affable and fairly easy to get along with. . He was first elected to the House of Representatives in 1942 and re- elected in 1944. During his sojourn with the Legislature he has been fairly active in legislative matters, and al though neither chairman or vice. chairman of any of the House stand- ing committees, he was named to mem- bership on three including the im- portant Committee on Highways, In- surance Committee and the Committee on Counties during the past session. Although not prone to stand on the floor of the House and talk for hours on end as are some Assembly- men, Flack during the past session introduced fifteen bills, of which num- ber three were passed by the Legisla- ture and are now awaiting the signa- ture of the Governor to be made into law. One of these measures would amend the Anthracite Coal Mining Law to set up further relating operations in the approach of inaccessable mine workings, while a second bill given legislative approval and a companion measure to the first one would require weekly examination of all accessible parts of an abandoned portion of a mine in which mine explosive gases have at any time been found. The third Flack measure — this one co-sponsored with Rep. Harold G. Westcott, Republican, of Susquehanna County, would set up an appropriation to the Department of Health for the purpose of providing vaccine for cer- tain persons “assumed to be in danger of hydraphobia or rabies,” except in cities where dog license fees are paid into the city treasury. Flack introduced no resolutions into the lower chamber. His voting record has been fairly consistent and in line with the Republican majority, for the most part. Born in Plymouth December 30, 1899, he attended Scranton grade and high schools and is now a general insurance agent. His civic enterprises include the past presidency of the Dallas Kiwanis Club; member of the Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce; Wyoming Lodge, 39, 1.O.O.F; Prince of Peace Commandery 69, Knights of Malta; Shavertown Fire Company; Kingston Presbyterian Church; Lieu- tenant-Governor, Pennsylvania District, Kiwanis International, Division 11. Impartial Harrisburg observers rate him thus, "a good solid Republican who will go along with the majority. Time may put him on other important committees.” Lake Graduates To Have Meeting Lake Township Alumni Association met in the school music room on Mon- day and laid plans for a meeting and wiener roast to be held in the community park adjacent to the school on Monday evening, July 21.
