Bomb Model After Scare: Time To

_ Facsimile In Locker
© Leads To Detention
The locker is the high school
student’s home away from home.
Essays have been written about
the miscellany stuffed in the av-
erage locker. Depending on whether
one is a boy or a girl, the student’s
locker can contain books, note-
books, athletic equipment, cos-
metics, mirrors, love letters, sweat-
ers, pictures of loved ones, pictures
of movie stars and rock and roll
singers, and many other items too
numerous.
Lockers at Dallas High School late
last week were the scene of prank,
which in any other time might have
been dismissed with a reprimand,
but because of a wave of bomb
scaring in local schools, cost the
boys some time in juvenile deten-
tion and almost effected a malicious
mischief rap.
Placed by three 15-year-old
sophomores, two from the middle
area of Dallas Township and one
from Trucksville, and one of whom |
had unfortunate judgment during
later questioning to refer to himself
as a “bomb expert,” the thing was
_hooked to a watch, wired to acti-
vate at “quarter after”, if there
‘had been, as there was not, real
dynamite or explosive.
“Quarter after what?” said Town-
he inventor.
“Quarter after anything.” There
was “a trip wire at 3 on the dial.
Juvenile Court authority, notified
Friday evening, after the prank,
ordered the police chief to bring
the youths in immediately for. de-
tention... The chief said he had
questioned them at school, decided
to let them go home to their par-
ents for the night, to be taken in
on Saturday. He and Kingston
Township Police Chief Herbert Up-
dyke, Kingston Township, went the
rounds /to pick each boy up.
Before he left, one boy told one
of his !parents of the other fake
bomb in a locker at school. The
police were told later, and picked
it up on Saturday. It was a box
anging out one end, with “Now
You've Had it, You Have 35 Sec-
or some such, inscribed on
it. Each “bomb” had a different
inventor.

Malicious Mischief
Charges Are Dropped
Some of the charges against the
three youths who constructed two
phony bombs and took them to
Dallas High School last week have
been dropped, the boys released
to return to school, and the general
gravity of the situation is now re-
garded as considerably less by
county juvenile authorities, the
Dallas Post learned yesterday.
Probation officer William Beck
said, in fact, that not only had there
been no intention of the boys to
maliciously disrupt school proceed-
ings with the devices, but that at
least one member of the Dallas |
High School faculty had known |
about the “bomb” earlier. |
One. of the boys had shown a |
teacher the invention, Beck said,
and was told to put it in his locker,
and to take it out of the school and
home at the end of the day. Be-|
fore this could be done, however,
the “bomb” got loose in the hall
in other hands. |
Beck said a hearing would, in any
case, be held at some later date,
but that the juvenile court office
now felt it to be more of a school |
matter. |
The « charge of “malicious mis- |
chief” ‘he termed a misnomer and |
agreed with school and police au- |
thorities that under other circum- |
stances (when there were no bomb
scare phone calls), the phony bomb |
would have been “a joke.”
The boys said the first ‘bomb’,
three copper tubes, painted dull
red and wrapped in black tape, with
terminals, batteries, and a watch, |
was brought in a paper lunch-type
bag on Thursday, was deposited in
the locker of “a friend” on Friday,
and, they told school authorities,
the friend got “a big kick out of
it.” It looked very realistic.
It was the end of sophomore !
lunch period, the last of the day, |
and Thomas Jenkins, assistant prin-
cipal, was coming up the hallway.
Next to the glass-walled admini- |
strative office, occupied by two
secretaries, was a group of: boys
looking at the “bomb” which one
was holding. The boy told Mr.
Jenkins he was just coming in to!
‘how it to him. It had, he said, |
been found in a gym bag in the |
ain locker room near the office.
% (Nobody was running through |
the halls with the bomb in his |
hands, © only to encounter Mr.
Jenkins en route. The assistant |
principal was quoted in early re- |
ports of the incident, although
actually the Dallas Post was the
only newspaper which spoke to him |
about it.)
It was no secret among the stu- |
dents and these things never |
are — who the “bomb” makers |
were, and further questioning by
the administration later revealed
the names of the three boys. More
was the pity, because, as Chief
Lange noted, they were - good
students.
They were held at the detention
home, and released Tuesday at
about 4:30 p.m.

Bitter Outcry Against Prejudice
Jomes To Life In
Theatre-goers who ‘expected to!
find a conventional setting for “The
Crucible’ last night at Wilkes-Barre |
Little Theatre's presentation of
Arthur Miller's drama, were greeted
by an eerie blue light and an open
stage. Silent figures shifted the
meagre furnishings between the
acts.
There is no curtain. As in a
Shakespearian production of 400
years ago, the action is everything, |
stage settings incidental.
Witcheraft is suggested from the |
moment a small girl is found lying |
motionless. Mass hysteria and mob
psychology gain momentum, and
culminate in a tragedy which is
the author’s bitter denunciation of
present-day prejudice, expressed in
terms of the Salem of 1692.
The audience on opening night |
was carried away by the mounting
tension, as a “harmless prank” of |
young girls becomes a nightmare,
and members of the church are one
after another accused of witchery.
Those who expected a happy end-

The action moves inexorably to-
ward execution, while: the young
girls responsible for the accusa-
tions find themselves unable to tell
the truth and save their friends
and neighbors.

final scene, when the mills of cruel

in Toyalville Saturday evening
around 6, but was contained by the
family and firemen from Daniel C.

Property is owned by Floyd Tay-
lor. Family apparently threw water
on the clothing itself, and then
pulled it out of the closet.
Several firemen arrived ahead of
the truck and helped to throw water
on the blaze until the main unit
got there. Fire Chief Richard Wil-
liams was in charge.
March Brushfire

Dallas also put out a brushfire
on Fern Street, Fernbrook on Fri-

Lehman Board Announces Official
Organization Of Zoning Committee
anxious to make zoning regulations
workable and fair to all taxpayers,
and will meet the second Thurs-
day of each month to act on busi-
ness. All members will receive re-
quests for permits, as will Police
Chief Joseph Ide.
Ide told the Board of Supervisors
at Saturday’s meeting that he would
like a more detailed explanation of
his job with respect to buildings
going up, as affected by the ordi-
nance. He indicated that a more
expanded role as building inspector
for the police chief should carry
more reimbursement with it.
William Samuel, chairman of
supervisors, said a complete book
of ordinances is contemplated, so
that their provisions will be open
for anyone to see.
Tough said that the committee
plans about five major alterations
on the zoning ordinance itself.
Board was asked if it had any
observations concerning the move-
ment to form a borough at Harveys
Lake, one mile of shoreline there
being in Lehman Township. Michael
Godek, supervisor from Oak Hill,
said he had not yet been approach=
ed by the Harveys Lake Executive
Association on the matter, so he
did not know much about the ef-
fort. He said the Lehman Board
will just have to wait and see what
| happens. Many Lehman Township
{serie who live in . the affected
area at the Lake are not in favor
of the borough move, he said.
Police Report
Police department reported 30
calls, one highway arrest, two
breaking and entering, four acci-
dents, and checking township road
for bad spots. Lake Silkworth had
a quiet month, with officer on duty
and patrol every night with one
man, and also school crossing
patrol.

released from the 1963 duplicate.
Dead Bird Mystery,
Harveys Lake Area
The Dallas Post has received re=
port of starlings dropping dead in
large numbers at Warden Place,
Harveys Lake, during the winter,
with a request. to find out why.
Neither the Pennsylvania Game
Commission nor the Back Mountain |
Mountain Bird Club had information
about the matter, but it was sug-
gested that they might have been
poisoned.
President of the bird club, Edwin
Johnson, said there would be no
reason for the birds freezing to
! death unless there were no food
| supply. But this has not been a
particularly hard winter.
Reports were that the birds lit-
tered the ground in spots, with
wings outstretched as if frozen, and
they apparently dropped out of the
trees.
