RADIO NEWS TV (Television) Out at JERRY FRANTZ’'S PLACE ON OVERBROOK, we are just finishing up the installation of TV. We are having fair too good results on Channel 4, NBC, New York. Al- though we at first anticipated better results on Channel 12, CBS and Channel 5, Dumont, results on these two have been comparatively poor to fair. It would not be right to tell you that you could see a first class show every night because we do have a poor night now and then, but for the most part it is OK. Drop in about 8 PM and stick around. Of course we do have a quantity of so-called snow in the picture but still not enough to ruin its enter- tainment value. This snow effect is due to weak signal conditions totally overcome this far from the transmitting station. Another source of trouble is diathermy interfer- ence, although not serious enough to ruin our picture entirely, those machines employed by doctors and hospitals to ease our aching backs, etc., can really mess up a television show. The usual indication of this interference is a herringbone run- ning horizontally through the picture. Just another thought, the in- stallation of TV in this area (the fringe area—and I do mean the ragged outer fringe) is a tricky sort of thing but if you are inter- ested, let us give you the benefit of our experience here and the several months of TV installation supervision and service in the Wash- ington, D.C., area. Your location may be such that you can have excellent results, (there are such spots back here in the mountains). We are equipped to run tests and determine what can be expected in a given area. P. S. We don’t claim that Jerry's installation receives the best pic- tures in the county, we say it works and is providing within its limitations, entertainment not readily available otherwise. For the finest in service, the finest in radio, the finest in TV, call us. C. L. CONGDON BACK MOUNTAIN RADIO SERVICE Fernbrook-Demunds Road 'E. Dallas — PHONE 317-R-8 To Speak at Huntsville Rev.

The high scoring Kingston Township team, averag- ing 50 points a game, is a favorite over Lehman, which against Dallas Borough failed to resemble the team that handed Fairview its de- feat. — The Kingston Township- Lehman girls game will be a blue chip affair. Lehman leads the league while the Katies are ties for the runner-up position. Dallas Borough and Dallas Town- ship clash in what used to be a top blood game. The Borough rates heads above the Redskins, so it is up to the two girl's teams to uphold tradition. Laketon meets Harter in a game which will match two of the loop’s top scorers, Gulitus and McKeown. This game is a toss-up, with Harter given the edge. Laketon girls should triumph over the Harter lassies to keep in the running for the girl’s Dalas Borough, a hot and cold aggregation, was definitely on when it took Lehman 34-17 Tuesday.

Dal- las was sparked by Shafer with 11 points, 8 of them coming on mid- court set shots, and Harris, who sank 7 for 10 foul shots and who was a big factor in the Blue and Gold’s controls of the boards. Leh- man was too tense and tight and couldn’t click against the Borough's three-two zone defense. In the other games, the Harter boys had an easy time with Dallas Township as four men broke into double figures in their scoring, Dal- las girls tromped Harter 39-17 to score the highest number of points for the year. Kozick hit for 16 counters for Dallas. Fairview took Laketon 49-33 for its fifth win with Strauss having 24 points and Gul- itus 18. The Fairview-Laketon girls played another of the one point games, marking the second contest which Laketon has lost by this margin. After holding a 15-11 halftime lead, Fairview had to fight to squeeze out a 22-21 victory. Nicholas led the visitors with 10 counters, while Bellaba was high with 10 for the home team.

When It's Dry Cleaning think of HECK HECK'S DRY CLEANING H. L. 4256 Harold G. Payne Is Made Vice President THE POST, FRIDAY, JANUARY 28, 1949 Sordoni Interests Purchase Lake Street Property For New Building Coincident with the announce- ment that Harold Payne of Harvey's Lake has been elected vice presi- dent and general manager of Com- monwealth, Luzerne and Bradford County Telephone Companies, comes the announcement that the Com- monwealth Company has purchased a strip of land along Lake Street from A, C. Devens and will erect there its new building formerly planned for location on its present site of Church Street. The new building, part of a $2, 000,000 expansion program will be more beautiful and more complete than that originally planned for Church Street. It will serve as gen- eral headquarters for all of the companies owned by Senator An- drew J. Sordoni. The management, plant engi- neers and the entire telephone ac- counting department, which here- tofore was centered in the Sor- doni organization’s Forty-Fort of- fice will be moved to the Dallas location. Equipment necessary for conver- sion to dial operation in the Dallas area is expected to be received in the fall and installation will be made immediately. The three telephone companies accommodate subscribers in an arc from Ringtown, near Shenandoah, to Wapwallopen to Dallas and the Back Mountain Area and thence to Bradford County and the New York State Line. On July 1, 1948, Mr. Payne, who had been assistant manager of the three companies, was elevated to acting vice preseident and general manager, assuming the duties of R. W. Kintzer, who retired. The action of the directors at the an- nual meeting confirms Senator An- drew J. Sordoni’s July appoint- ment, Harold G. Payne became asso- ciated with the Sordoni organiza- tions in 1929 when the Sordoni Constrction Company erected Kingston High School. In 1932 he was transferred to Harvey's Lake Light Company, where he worked until 1941, when he was appointed to the Dallas office of the Com- monwealth Telephone Company as district manager. On June 1, 1944, he was appointed assistant general manager of the three telephone companies. Mr. Payne and his fam- ily reside at Harvey's Lake.
