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.

First half of the Back Mountain
League winds up tonight with Fair-
view a cinch for at least a tie for
the honors — Kingston Township
must whip the fighting Lehman
Scotties, the only team to beat the
Fairview quintet, to tie for the top
spot — The Katie-Scottie encounter
will settle the tie that now exists
for second place. 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.

spurted to a 9-0 lead and was in
command the rest of the game. 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.

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.

Methodist Church will hold a cover-
