Twenty Directors
Organize Lehman
Merged District
. Name Of Lake To
Be Dropped From
Jointure July 1
Lake Township school directors
sat on the sidelines Tuesday at Ross
Township elementary school while
the newly merged Lehman District
held a brief meeting in advance of
the Lake-Lehman board session.
Conducting the preliminary ses-
sion was Richard Hogoboom, elected
as interim president at a special
meeting Friday night, when the
four school districts which had voted
to merge at primary elections drew
up plans for the merged district.
Elected at this time, to serve un-
til July 1, were these officers: pres-
ident, Mr. Hogoboom; vice president,
Dean Shaver; secretary, Eleanor
Humphrey; solicitor, Louis Crisman.
Decided upon also was the name
of the district: Lehman Merged
School District. The name of Lake
was omitted, in compliance with the
wishes of the tax-payers who
had repudiated the idea of merger
at the polls.
Present on Friday were E. S.
Teter and Wesley Davies, superin-
tendent of Luzerne County Schools.
The present school board, Lake-
Lehman Jointure, will continue to
operate until July 1, and its pres-
ident, Willard Sutton, will present
diplomas to 134 graduates on June
9.
The diplomas will be headed
Lake-Lehman. Next year ‘the head-
ing will be Lehman Merged District.
Lake Township will be. associated
with the merged district as a join-
ture. Bonus for merger offered by
the State will not be received by
Lake Township.
Tuesday evening, upon comple-
tion of business of the interim board,
Mr. Hogoboom relinquished the
chair to Willard Sutton, presiding
for Lake-Lehman.
Lester Squier, supervising princi-
pal, posed a question: Should the
Baccalaureate Sunday observances
be cancelled in line with the popular
hoorah on forcing religion upon the
young ? Dallas schools, he had been
told, were considering abandonment
of the program. Kingston Borough
was planning Baccalaureate cere-
monies as in former years.
Directors voted to go along with
day before graduation observance,
ag part of commencement week to
which students are entitled. Seniors
wear cap and gown to Baccalaureate
services as well as at Commence-
ment. Many of the seniors will never
have another opportunity to wear
academic costume.
Baccalaureate services are sch-
eduled for Sunday, June 7 in the au-
ditorium; graduation Tuesday, June
9, in the gymnasium.
A school calendar was adopted,
allowing a day off for Bloomsburg
Fair and for the first day of deer
season. Washington's Birthday was
listed with a proviso that it might
be cancelled out if heavy snow
should close the schools. Easter va-
cation could also be shortened for
the same emergency..
Schools will open September 9,
close June 16.
Mr. Squier made special note of
a mandated emergency budget in-
crease for professional employees,
amounting to $11,887.00 Revised in-
creases include increments of $250
for the supervising principal; $120
for assistant supervisor; $380 for
the principals; $10,205 for teachers;
$500 for librarian; $135 for gui-
dance; $50 for nurse; $247 for So-
cial Security.
Pay for cafeteria workers and
bus drivers for the day of the state
funeral for assassinated President
John F. Kennedy, when schools were
closed November 25, 1963, was vot-
ed. The Board expected a directive
from Harrisburg, received none, and
decided that as teachers were paid,
bus drivers and cafeteria workers
should not be penalized.
Bills - amounting to
were ordered paid.
Fire Victim
Noxen Native
Burned beyond recognition, and
positively identified only by his
teeth, Lester L. Steele, Noxen
native, will be buried today from
the Bronson Funeral Home, where
services for his sister-in-law Mrs.
Carl Steele, were conducted only
last week.
Struggling with two firemen who
attempted to save him Monday
night at 10, the 49 year old man
burned to death on the fire escape
porch of his apartment at 44 N.
Main Street, Wilkes-Barre.
$11,920.76
Born in Noxen, son of the late |
Earl V. and Della Goss Steele, Mr.
Steele spent most of his life in
Wilkes-Barre where he was em-
ployed by the Herzeld Photographic
Studio until retiring in 1961.
He leaves four sons: James, Cali-
fornia; Robert, Beach Haven; Doug-
las, Hunlock Creek; and Donald, at
home; four grandchildren, and a
brother Carl, Kingston. His mother
died last year.

Local Girl Er
Fine Arts Fellowship
MARY RUTH DANIELS
‘Moore College of ‘Art, Philadel-
phia, has awarded its Sarah Peter
Fine ‘Arts European Fellowship to
Mrs. Robert Daniels, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Andrew, 82
Perrin Avenue, Shavertown.
This award is made annually to
a full time graduating illustration
and painting student having muncon-
ditional status, enrolled at Moore
for 3 consecutive years, who re-
ceives approval by their department
head and who has maintained a
junior year average of 2.5 and a
senior year average of 3.0 or more.
Each contestant must hang a
wall of samples of work done dur-
ing the years of her major. From
these ‘entries a fellowship recipient
is selected by a jury of well-known
painters. The fellowship must be
used for travel, study and research
in Europe and the. recipient must
spend time there on an approved
program of study.
Mrs. Daniel's wall consisted of
drawing, water colors, oils, graphic
prints, collages and other media,
showing examples of non-objective,
representational, figurative and
non-figurative work. Her work in-
dicated, according to the jury, a
sense of observation, strong design,
excellent handling of and application
of paint, obvious indications of her
personality and development. The
decision of the judges was unanim-
ous.
The announcement, made on
May 1st, of the winner was barely
the wake of the new highway.
But not without a surprise! One
old ghost was shaken out of the
walls in the process. See story be-
low.
Mystery Check
Found Here
Was Mailed Bt Local
Post Office In 1952
With the demolition of Trucks-
ville Post Office recently and the
consequent clearing of old files and
lock boxes, a twelve-year mystery
has been solved for postal authorit-
ies and RH. Kline, 84 Loveland
Street, Kingston.
On December 13, 1952, Mr. Kline,
an agent for Rawleigh Company,
mailed an order at Trucksviile Post
Office with a check for $105,
The order and check were never
received asd loss was reported to
Postal authorities, who were unable
to trace it.
On April 28 of this year, Mr.
Kline received the following for-
warded letter from Postmaster Wil-
liam W. Davis, Wilkes-Barre: “Dear
Sir: The enclosed letter is forward-
ed to you with an explanation
for long delay. It was located to-
day, April 28, 1964, wedged be-
tween the lock boxes and the let-
ter drop at our Trucksville Branch.

Saturday.
The land, varying in depth from |
21 to 35 feet, and running about |
190 feet from Sunset bridge to the
notion stand across from the Casino,
was leased by two owners at a
nominal
Lehman Township.
Improvement of the shore area,
owned by Joseph Paglianite and the
James Mack Estate, -is to begin |
shortly. Some fill will be necessary.
Owners have reportedly begun ar- |
rangements to canvass local prop- |
erty-holders for help, and have
agreed to pay bills on the venture.
Supervisors are now investigating |
possibilities of getting lifeguard |
protection and insurance.
Adjoining land owned by Francis |
“Red” Ambrose is not presently a |
part of the Township recreation
tract, but may be added later. Mr.
Ambrose has sold some of his lake-
front land recently.

Council To Convene Specially To
Weigh County Bid
Dallas Borough Council consider-
ed a proposal by County Commis-
sioners that it restrict its taxing
power the first year after reassess-
ment by the county, so that budget |
does not exceed that of the previous
year by more than five per cent.
The Council then decided to meet
as a committee of the whole to
evaluate the proposal in the light
of Borough's present financial sit-
uation.
Factors to be considered, as point-
ed out by solicitor Robert Fleming
and Mayor Thomas Morgan: Bor-
ough has not raised its millage
since 1947, which may rank Coun-
cil as one of the most economy-
minded in the state. But the Bor-
, ough may not want to continue to
scrimp and save much longer, con-
sidering the growing need for more
drains, roads, and police.
In that case, the Borough might
see the day shortly when it would |
need to raise taxes, and could not,
because it had resolved not to, when
asked by County Commissioners.
Taxes could conceivably go up if,
as expected, Back Mountain valuat-
‘on would be raised after reapses-
ment.
As Illustration
As illustration of possible need for
higher taxes in Dallas, drainage
problems in the Sterling-Susque-
hanna-Lackwanna avenue section
were again brought to, light, and
Council decided 'it simply did not
have the $4000-and-some needed to
install proper drainage there.
Along with drainage problems
went sewage problems, and coun-
cilman George Thomas complained
of sewage odor back of the Dallas
Acme building, caused, apparently,
by an overflowing septic tank under
the pavement. Health inspectors
will be consulted on this problem.
Perranto Deputized
Andrew Perranto, street superin-
tendent,” was deputized a special
officer to handle daytime accidents,
as Chief Honeywell expected he
might have an overload of court
appearances next month.
Police report had six arrests: five
red lights and one reckless driving.
Councilman Thomas complained
of a driver doing 70 miles an hour
on Sterling Avenue, witnessed by
several people, and said his license |
number had been taken. :
