Carl Stash, 9,
Now At Girard
School Fully Endowed
For Fatherless Boys
Carl Andrew Stash, 9, has been ad-
mitted as a student to Girard College,
Philadelphia. The son of Mrs. Eliza-
beth Stash and the late Andrew
Stash, 141 Davenport Street, Dallas,
Carl was among sixty-five admitted
to the well-known boarding school
for boys.
Girard College was founded in
1848, according to the will of Stephen
Girard, famous philanthropist, and
himself an orphan. The school is com-
pletely endowed for instruction, ac-
tivities, and living facilities of each
boy.
Carl will be able to study at the
Philadelphia boarding school until he
receives his high school diploma. Be-
fore entering Girard, he attended
Gate of Heaven School.
Andrew Stash, an electrician, died
December 25. Carl has two sisters,
Betsy Ann, 11 and Mary Ann, 6
and one brother Andrew, 4.
Mrs Stash thinks this is a wonder-
ful opportunity for Carl, and fer-
vently hopes he does not get stricken
by that old boarding school ailment,
homesickness.
Mrs. Osterhout, 57, Was
Housemother For Deaf
Transferring her home-making
skills to the mothering of “children
in the Pennsylvania School for the
Deaf, since the death of her husband
in 1956, Mrs. Mary Martha Osterhout
of Dallas had started the new term
with enthusiasm early in September.
She had been back here two weeks
ago to visit her daughter, Mrs. George
Weale, Columbia Avenue, and ap-
peared in abounding health.
Thursday night she died suddenly
at the school where she had been
house mother for four years. Her hus-
band George died equally suddenly
in 1956.
Mrs. Osterhout, 57, had learned,
during her four years as house-
mother, to communicate with the
deaf children, and took great pride in
her work. She was looking forward
to spending many more years with
“her children.”
Born in Wilkes-Barre, April 5, 1905
she was educated in city schools. She
moved to Dallas a year after the
death of her husband, joining Dallas
Methodist Church.
She was buried Monday afternoon
at Memorial Shrine, her pastor, Rev.
Russell Lawry, conducting services
from Disque Funeral Home.
Gay At Roundtable
Of Insurance Agents
Ernest A. Gay, Dallas, recently at-
tended ‘the Agents’ Regional Round-
table meeting of Nationwide Insur-
ance Companies, Treadway Inn, Leb-
anon.
The Roundtable, composed of 48
men chosen from 835 Nationwide a-
gents in eastern Pennsylvania, is an
advisory group, facilitating commun-
ications of ideas between agents and
regional management.
Year-Around Fishing Needed
To Avoid Overcrowding Bass
Largemouth bass of trophy size
are usually found in ponds and lakes
where year-around fishing and nat-
ural predation remove most of the
small and medium sized fish, says
Edwin L. Cooper, research zoologist
with the Agricultural Experiment
Station at the Pennsylvania State
University.
Fish counts by Cooper and associ-
ates reveal that lakes or ponds,
closed to fishing, seldom produce
“lunkers” or big ones because of
intense competition for food. Natural
reproduction, they point out, usually
produces too many fish.
“Our experiments show that me-
dium sized and large bass should be
harvested continually to make food
available for other bass to grow,”
Dr. Cooper states.
In one study, about 5,500 bass of
5-inch length populated a 3-acre
experimental pond in the spring.’ Of
these, 4,600 or 84 per cent were
removed, leaving 900.
Fish counts in the fall revealed
830 well-fed .two-year-old bass, all
about 8 inches long. Their total
weight was three-fourths that of the
entire spring population. Moreover,
the 830 survivors had spawned a new
crop of fingerlings, making the total
fall weight equal to the spring
weight.
These studies indicate that food
is more important than age in de-
termining size. A poorly fed bass
will seldom get to be 10 inches long
in 3 years, Cooper obsérves. A very
well-fed bass‘ could mature at 10
inches in 1 year. ’
Mrs. Florence Helfrich
Dies At 39 In Her Sleep
Mrs. Florence Rolison Helfrich, 39,
died in her sleep Wednesday at her
home in Grove City, Ohio, three days
before she had expected to come to
Fernbrook with her husband to see
her mother, Mrs. Florence Rolison,
and take her back to Ohio for a first
look at the new ranchhome which
she and Major John Helfrich had re-
cently purchased. Mrs. Helfrich was
excited about her new granddaugh-
ter, could scarcely wait to take her
mother to Ohio for a visit with the
family.
She had talked with her mother
Monday night, setting the time of the
visit a week ahead of the date or-
iginally planned, anticipating her
mother’s delight in ‘seeing the new
home in its setting of fall flowers be-
fore a killing frost should strike. Mrs.
Rolison had her suitcase packed in
readiness for the trip.
Mrs. Helfrich graduated from Dal-
las Township school in 1944. Her hus-
band John left Dallas Township
school to join the U.S. Air Force,
where he rose to officer status, serv-
ing in Greenland, England, Guam.
He recently retired after twenty years
service.
She leaves her husband; a son John
Jr; daughters, Mrs. Miriam Weaver,
Columbus, Ohio; and Cheri, at home;
her mother, Fernbrook; two grand-
children; a brother William Rolison,
Kingston.
Burial was in the family plot at
Woodlawn Cemetery, from a Luzerne
funeral home.
