You're not going crazy,

Girl, 5, Hurt
By Firecracker
State Police Seek
Suspected Thrower
A little girl is recovering at home
this week after suffering a severe
scalp cut from a thrown firecracker
July 4 at Wolfe’s Grove, Sylvan
Lake.
' Shickshinny state police are in-
vestigating the origin of the fire-
cracker which hurt Doreen Yacu-
bosky, 13 Coal Street, Glen Lyon.
Parents Mr. and Mrs. John Yacu-
Toby's
bosky, who with their three daugh-'
ters, were enjoying a picnic near
the hall at the grove, said the fire
cracker came from ‘the hall.
Yacubosky tried to get in the build-
ing to see who had throwm it, but
his path was allegedly blocked.
A relative of the Yacubosky
family and a friend, searching the
grounds after the incident, found
a boy hiding fireworks in his hub-
cap, and took the fireworks and
his licemse number,
According to her mother, Doreen
narrowly ' missed losing her eyes,
being turned away from the direc-
tion of the explosive momentarily.
When it went off, she cried to
her father next to her: “Daddy, are
you hurt?” He answered: ‘No,
honey”, felt the blood from her
scalp on his arm, amd ran to the
entrance.
Mr. Yacubosky took Doreen to
Nanticoke Hospital for treatment.
Bee-Man Purchases
The Merry-Go-Round
Bobby Wintersteen, Harveys Lake,
has recently bought the Merry-Go-
Round at Hanson's Amusement
Park, and is in business for him-
self. In addition, he works for the
Sun-Gas Company and is the
trouble-shooter for people who find
themselves invaded by a swarm of
bees.
Bobby gets frantic calls from
police departments in Kingston and
Wilkes-Barre, when householders
find a swarm of bees hanging to the
chimney or weighing down a tree
branch. Bobby responds with a
bee-hive and the know-how to per-
suade the bees to take up residence
in it.

Natona For Tax
Township To Await
Mandate Of Court
“It had to happen soomer or
later”, was the consensus of
Borough Council after the meeting
Tuesday night.
“It” was authorization for solici-
tor to start suit against Natoma
Mills for $4500 real estate transfer
tax, with the expectation that Dal-
Jas Township would be joined as
another defendant,
Township informed Solicitor Bob
Fleming Tuesday that it would re-
turn ‘the sum, held since the coun-
ty sent it to them by “mistake”,
only when ordered to do so by
court. ..
Council immediately and un-
animously approved filing of suit.
Fleming said he expected to start
preliminaries ‘before next meet-
ing” of the council, and theoretical-
ly the township
was doubtful they would do so.

last year; otherwise a suit would

Township, led by president super-
visor Fred Lamoreaux, to surrender
the money to the Mill, which would

Borough.
Tax was sent to the Township be-
cause the deed to Natona’s property
lists it in their jurisdiction, al-
‘though the Superior Court in 1952
ruled the mill annexed . to the
Borough, and henceforth out of
Township property.
Fred Lamoreaux was. unavailable
for comment at press time, but the
supervisors apparently felt
had a case.
often said at meetings that the
deed and other practical ecircum-
stances showed clearly that the
-{ Mill is still in the Township.
BOROUGH CRUISER
Police committee, in other busi-
ness, proposed money for a police
cruiser ‘be included im the budget
for mext year, and the council
seemed agreeable to the idea.
Audit for past year was approved
for advertisement.
Sixteen arrests, ten red lights,
one stop sign, four parking viola-
tions, and one larceny of motor
vehicle were included on June's
police report.
