brakes to cut speed. The car rolled
and landed on its roof.

ming Valley: Thomas Roper and
Ellen Barsh, Grove Street, Pringle,

Dallas 3-Car Crash
Yields One Injury
Three cars collided on Memorial
Highway in Dallas, across from the
midget raceway, at 2:35 p.m. Friday,
with neck injury to one driver, Wil-
liam Charles Lamb, Dallas RD 4.
Lamb’s car was struck from be-
hind by driver Carl J. Schreiner,
Hillside Avenue, Harveys Lake,
forcing it to hit that of Harold
Gray who was proceeding toward
Dallas.
Gray had stopped on the highway
according
to acting police chief Alexander
MacCulloch.
Lamb was taken to a doctor by
| state police car for injuries to his
neck.
Harveys Lake sewage problem is

Lake-Lehman Needs Extra Teacher
Lake-Lehman’s banner enroll-
ment this fall, necessitates the hir- |
ing of another first-grade teacher,
reported supervising principal Les-
ter B. Squier Tuesday evening to
members of the joint board.
At the Lehman elementary build-
ing, 84 first-graders were registered
up until Tuesday, with more expect-
ed, too many for two teachers to
handle.
Mrs. Josephine Berkey, originally
scheduled to teach one session of
kindergarten, was retained to teach
full time in the first-grade. Mrs.
Linda Grey Montross, with certifica- :
tion from Mansfield State College
in Home Economics and kinder-
garten subjects, was approved for
a part-time contract to teach
kindergarten.
Head teachers were recommended
for each elementary school: Mrs.
Grace Martin at Lake; Miss Hannah |
Culp at Lehman-Jackson; Miss
Janet - Turner at Noxen; Myron
Moss at Ross Township.
Assisting Anthony Marchakitus at
the High School will be John Za- |
leskas, with the title of head
teacher. Mr. Zaleskas has given up
his position as wrestling coach in
order to help the high school prin- |
cipal with extra-curricular activi- |
ties, disciplinary problems, and ex- |
tra work preliminary to the school
evaluation’ scheduled for March.
Mr. Zaleskas is starting work on
his master’s degree in administra-
on.
Staff leaders at the High ‘School
were appointed: English depart-
, ment, Miss Marian Huttenstine; so-
cial studies, Mr. Zaleskas; mathe-
matics, Miss Hazel Baer; science,
John Jenkins; home economics and
cafeteria, Mrs. Ruth Stolarick.
Edward H. Edwards, head foot-
ball coach, will be assisted by Mr.
Zaleskas and Paul Turkson; Ken-
assistant Leonard Thresten.

Cafeteria
The board hopes to‘ keep the
line on cafeteria prices, against
I slowly rising costs: 23 cents per
luncheon for grades 1 to 3, and
25 cents for grades 4 to 12.
Jack Cave, who started to furnish
meat for the final two months of
the spring session, will continue to
do so. Gold Cup Bakery in Forty
Fort will continue to supply as in
the past.
Mrs. Stolarick has been shopping

Lake Ordinance Curbs New Sewers
But State Must Control Old Plants
neth Maciak, boys’ basketball coach,
posal devices.
Important: The new law ap-
plies only where a new sewage
system is to be built, or when
the old one is to be altered
or extended. It does not govern
the old ones—the overflowing
sumps and privvies that are
just sitting there, contaminat-
ing the Lake.
There is still need for state
enforcement on these old sys-
tems, as the state law against
dumping sewage into state
waters (Harveys Lake) is the
{ only legal means to stop them.
| Penalty set forth by the new law
| is from $50 to $100 fine, or from
| five to thirty days.
A sanitary inspector will check
| all new systems and those being |
| altered to see that they comply |
with regulations.
It was remarked at the super-
visors’ meeting Saturday that sep-
tic tank installing companies had
been warned to hold off on con-
| struction of new tanks until the
law was passed.
Minimum capacity of septic tanks
in Lake Township in homes with |
two bedrooms or less is 750 gallons.
| Names of known violators of state
| sewage law will be turned over to
| the sanitation inspector. Supervisor
Whitesell asked if the state would
have pursued prosecution of viola-
tors if Lake Township had not ap-
| pointed a sanitary inspector. Atty. |
Maurice Cantor who was in attend-
| ance said he thought the state's
power would have been limited. .
Lehman Township will have sep-
arate sanitary inspection for ap-
proximately one mile of Lake front
which it governs.
JUNK CLEAN-UP
Supervisor Walter Hoover made
suggestion that police contact junk
dealers who have not complied with
the township ordinance that they
have ten days to meet the provi-
sions of law, or pay the penalty.
Most important for issuance of per-
mit, said Whitesell, is the distance
from road and property-line re-
quirement.
It was moved that a Lake Town-
ship disorderly conduct law be for-
| mulated, so that fines would go to
| Lake, not the state. Solicitor will
| be asked to draw up an ordinance.

One Car In Accident
Turns Bnd Takes Off
Driver of the fourth car, ich}
| apparently motivated. a four-car
collision + in Trucksville Tuesday,
turned around and left the scene,
| police say.
| Five people were injured around
2:45 p.m. when northbound traf-
| fic slowed or stopped for workmen
| on the new highway, and the un-
| identified driver knocked three
| others into a chain-crash.
In the first car, passenger Judy
Mead, Trucksville, claimed pain in
the head, but refused medical at-
tention at Nesbitt Hospital. Car
was driven by Carol Turak, 22,
Plymouth. Other passengers were
Mrs. Mary Mead and daughter Mary.
In second car were the worst in-
juries, admitted to hospital: Mrs.
Hazel Lehmann, 66, and Mrs. Mary
Smith, 70, Long Island, N. Y., pas-
sengers. Charles Lehmann was
driver.
Occupants of third car Mrs. Te-
resa Kaprari, 35, and son Paul, 10,
West Pittston, were treated for cuts
and released. Kaprari car was
towed to Birth’s.

Dallas School District teachers |
and staff met in the auditorium of |
the .high school Tuesday morning, |
launching the 1964-65 year.
President of the Schcol Board, |
Earl Phillips, got a laugh when he
said “Welcome back to reality” to |
the returning staff and teachers, |
and also greeted the new teachers. |
Mr. Phillips said that while proper |
administration of a school district |
is vital to educating youth, the
“point of sale” is the contact be- |
tween teacher and student, and
teacher’s skill in imparting know-
ledge to students makes the total !
of success or failure of the stu- |
dent.
Dr. Robert A. Mellman asked in- |
dulgence on completion of improve- |
ments to physical plants. He said
the shop at Westmoreland has been

He stressed the importance of

ords.

Linda Davies and Charlotte Rob-
erts spoke on Australia, where: the
population is booming to the extent
that public schools are built to last
only twenty years. ,
Like the girls who lived in Nor-
way, our Australian delegates from
the Back: Mountain were impressed
with the knowledge their friends

politics.
Charlotte said that courtesy was
the key® to Australian life, and it
prevaded relationships between
young people and adults, to the
extent that it was difficult some-
times to ask teachers questions in-
formally.
Since the Australians have a
racial problem of their own with
pathize with our segregation and
integration difficulties, she said.

Flag Indoctrination
Favored By Kozemchak
As Vandalism Revealed
Dallas School Board meeting Tues-
day evening approved the offering
of college subjects to high school
| students at Saturday sessions. Col-
| lege instructors will be approached
to teach classes, or permission db-
| tained for high school faculty mem-
bers certificated in essential sub-
jects to help out in the new pro-
gram. Those eligible to participate
will be determined by the guidance
instructor and senior high princi-
pal.
The American flag which flies
cver all our school buildings will
continue to rise every morning des-
pite the efforts of vandals ‘to pre-
vent such patriotic display.
The disclosure that ropes and
ianyards had lecn tampered with
| came to light when director Andrew
| Kozemchak questiored the absence
>! the flag at Dallas Borough Build-
ing.. Supervisor maintenance,
John Paul, revealed that repairs to
| flag pole equipment had been dam-
aged again and again, but promised
all flags would be in place for
school opening Wednesday morn-
ing.
Mr. Kozemchak remarked that
a program of indoctrination on the
meaning of the flag should be
taught to all pupils and that this
patriotic symbol be made of ut-
most importance and not thrown
out as were religious exercises in
the schools, which he did not ap-
prove.
The admittance of students after
psychological testing to kindergar-
ten and first grade was also dis-
continued on vcie of directors who
feared a heavy increase in enroll-
ment. Director Kozemchak stated
that it would lead to discrimination
accusations. Two children were ad-
mitted this year under the plan,
Lynne Maslow to kindergarten and
Edward Farrar to first grade.
An emergency water problem at
the Senior High School was also re-
ported. No. 1 pump had shorted
out, and Mr. Paul informed the
board that a new pump will be
installed dropping the other 40 feet
lower to a level of 250 feet. Dry
conditions caused the trouble. He
also announced the property com-
mittee would act shortly on the
installation of “day and night lights
to afford school property greater
protection.
Teachers (Committee - discussed
an increase. of $300 to the Senior
High Music instructor and $150 for
Junior High instructor. Kozemchal
questioned variance, but was told
that increase was based on exira
activities and acceptable to both
men. Matter was tabled for lack
of majority vote until next meet-
ing.
President Earl Phillips reported
he had met with teachers at pre-
school session and was proud of the
faculty and forecast an excellent
year. '
Enrollment was on the increase
with: 3,000 pupils expected io fill
classrooms. Dr. Mellman reported
new. classrooms at Westmoreland
were open for inspection.
~~ WANT SPUR LINE
A letter from a group of mothers
at Orange Road requesting a spur
bus line for their children will be
studied by the transportation com-
mittee .
The list of substitute professional
empioyees submitted for approval
brought questioning from Kozeni-
chek as to how they were selected.
Dr. Mellman answered that those
with best certification were called
first The name of a Glen Lyon
native appearing on the substitute
custodial list also drew disapproval
from Kozemchak. He was informed
that the shortage of applicants had
called for the out-of-towners ad-
dition, but that Back Mountain res-
idents ‘were given first choice.
Failure of Kozemchak to vote
delayed - purchase of textbook for
German classes. Board members ab-
sent will be polled so that class
: use will not be delayed.
Psrking of. automobiles at all
heme football games will be under
control of the Area Letterman's
