Twp. Beach Bids |
For Project 70
Red Ambrose’s Land
Helps To Raise Base.
Lehman Township beach, which
has been making local history slow-
ly and surely over the last year as
a ‘first’, continued the course this
weekend with a promise of more
land and a preliminary application
for Project 70 funds.
Francis ‘Red” Ambrose, prom-
inent Lake property owner, agreed
to increase the township money
base for state-matching funds, by
giving Lehman 40 feet of lake front.
Thus the township could have
anywhere from an estimated $9,600
worth of assets (depending on a-
mount of appraisal) up to some
$12,000.
This wad of “money”, in the
form of land, can be increased by
twenty percent of total cost from
the federal government and, of
course, the 50 per cent from Pro-
ject 70. :
Government funds will be used,
presumably, to improve the beach,
and also to buy additional land. Ad-
jacent beach area is owned by Mr.
Ambrose also. He has been selling
this, the last vacant desirable
shore property on Harveys Lake, to
private buyers recently.
Applications for Project 70 mon-
ey must be made before August
31, according to Mr. Ambrose, who
noted that this first application is
more of a statement of intent. The
State will process all statements of
intent (and there will be many),
are worthy, will then ask for for-
mal applications, after which the
property will be appraised.
At present, Lehman Township
Beach consists of two parcels of
land leased for a nominal amount
from Joseph Paglianite, owner of
the nearby pizzeria, and from the
James Mack Estate.
For final application for state
funds, a gift of the land concerned
will be necessary from each of those
parties.
Present at the application, at 10
a.m. Saturday, were: Township Su-
pervisors William Samuels and
Michael Godek, road inspector Ben
Banks, and Ambrose.
Project 70 is 4 state endeavor, |
approved by tie pubis, tigset a- |
side $70 million for development of
recreational areas and facilities
throughout Pennsylvania.

1907 Giant's Despair Scrapbook
In Tiny's Famous Car Collection
With Giants ' Despair Hillclimb
coming up this weekend, the Dallas
Post was prompted to pull into
Tiny Gould’s antique’ car lot in
Trucksville last week, when we
spotted the maestro - polishing up
one of his beauties.
Tiny, we knew, wag an old Yond
at the hill, and would have some-
thing to say about it. His Cadillac-
Allard sports car was a consistent
winner in the fifties, taking firsts
and seconds in many ‘SCCA ‘events,
including the Giant and Fox Gap
hillclimbs.
Well, said Tiny, there is a 2 Strong
«chance that this will be the last
Giant, because they may have to
eritdvate to put out the mine fire.
11* this is the case, he hoped tHey
would stage’ one last climb event
for classic cars.
And does he ever have the classic
to do the job: a 1930 Duesenberg
roadster that once belonged to
movie-star Gary Cooper. When the
car wag issued from the factory, it
was guaranteed to do 104 in sec-
ond gear and 134 in third.
Tiny has something else that
would interest any Giants Despair
fan, a scrapbook about the famous
race, running from 1907 forward
for several years, during the days
of glory of the Matheson car,
manufactured in Wilkes - Barre.

Scrapbook was put together by coal
baron George F. Lee, the tail end
of whose Matheson was apparently
a common sight to police in Wilkes-
Barre, Plymouth, and surrounding
communities, since Mr. Lee saved
all his traffic summonses.
The tickets failed to designate
the exact speed of Mr. Lee’s auto-
mobile at the time of violation, but
it was probably all of 25 m.p,h. In
any case, Mr. Lee, who loved the
"Giants Despair, kept them all for
posterity, right in the scrapbook.
A Matheson ear won the Giant
one year, and Wilkes-Barre was
jubilant. Other winners in those
days were such extinct or assimi-
lated marques as the Chadwick and
the Benz:
CORD TAKES U.S.A. FIRST
The car Tiny was fixing up at the
time we dropped in was a 1929
Cord with a rather distinguished
past. It recently won first place in
class at the Grand Classic; Morris-
town, N. J., the biggest, most im-
portant Classic Car Club of America
event in the nation.
The Cord also took ! first in class |
in the National Spring Meet,
Gettysburg, an event for both an-
tiques and classicg (dividing line is
the late twenties), and at Williams-
port last” weekend.
When Tiny bought the Cord, it
was : an unrestored piece of junk.
‘What a change. of
Other examples of Ameriéa’s rich
automotive’ heritage in Tiny's gar-
| age are: a 1918 Stutz Bulldog, two
1929 Paclkards, a 1934 [Lincoln 12-
cylinder,’ a 1909 Thomas Flyer (one
of which ‘won first place in the !
famous’ round-the-world race of
that era), a 1913 Paige, and many |
others.
Or beauty you may have
a, as you drove dcwn the
highway past Tiny's, is a 1923 Hahn
firle ‘engine, combination pumper
ard ladder truck, with real, old-
fashioned hard rubber tires. Tiny |
‘plans to restore the truck which is |
‘ presently in excellent running con-
dition. In fact, the Selinsgrove Fire
Department had used the engine
up until the time Tiny bought it
last summer, and.Tiny drove it up |
here, cruising at about 35 miles an
hour.
Other
paraphernalia at Tiny's |
place includes emblems, hood orna- |
license badges (a
real rarity), and antique toy cars
and wagons. He is presently sell-
ing his complete stock of general |
antiques in order to devote. full
time to cars. Gun-lovers take note:
Tiny is also selling his gun collec-
tion, mostly collector's items, in-
cluding a “One of a Thousand”
Winchester, and a Winchester once
owned by Pawnee Bill with barrel
bored smooth to accomodate Paw-
nee’s special bird-shot cartridges |

manship no end.
"As Tiny converts his business |
totally to cars, he affirms his con- |
tinuing interest in one of the
world’s most colorful -(and expen- |
sive): ‘hobbies, which is also a |
thriving business. He has put]
Trucksville on the national map as
the location of one of only three |
nationally - advertised antique and |
classic car dealerships in the U.S.A. I:
Tiny’s career as a sports car
racing and hill climb driver is part
of the vast now, but he estimates |
he could clip his old time by five |
seconds just from the improvement |
of the road’s in recent
years.
He agrees, it will be a shame if

‘Three Crash At Lake
Near Picnic Grounds
Three cars collided at Harveys
Lake Sunday afternoon in front of
Hanson's pavilion, as one stopped
to allow a parked car to back out
onto the road. No one was hurt.
In the first car was John Rinko,
N. Empire Street, Wilkes-Barre,
who stopped to allow the car to
come out. In the second, directly
behind Rinko was Harold Mauger,
of Catasaqua, who also stopped.
The third car, driven by Robert
Hillard, Plymouth, failed to stop,
however, and struck the tail-end
of Mauger’s Hillman, driving it for-
ward into the Rinko car, a Chevro-
let.
All cars were proceeding toward
Laketon at the time of crash, about
2:20, according to Assistant chief
of police ‘Walbridge Leinthall. Dam-

HIX
With the winning of the Golden
Quill award, Mrs. T. M. B. Hicks,
associate editor of the Dallas Post
brings honor not only to Dallas
~and the Dallas Post, but to the State
of Pennsylvania.
The Golden Quill was presented
to Mrs. Hicks July 16, at the annual

ois University.
Editorials of the 1,189 finalists

Bounds, chairman of the Journal-
ism Department at University of
Alabama.
In making his decision, Dr.
Bounds writes in the foreward of
the brochure: “My final selection
. THE LIVING FLAME . . ..
was - based on. an appreciation of
the time when it was composed, on
the depth of emotion it- expressed
and on the fact that .'. . in my
