EE aa lin. PAGE SIX by Scott Peterman and Joan Domnick SANTA’'S WORKSHOP The theme for this year’s Student Council Christmas Dance has certainly been well chosen. With 8 p.m. Decem- ber 21st, only 48 hours away, the school has taken on an air comparable to the bustle Santa’s Workshop must have at this time of year. Committee members are frantically running back and forth juggling details. The gym is slowly being transformed into a scene at the North Pole. Anticipation grows, and Mr. Rakshys calmly surveys his realm. A special note of thanks should be added here to Mr. Kleiner who has been of im- measurable help in many of our school functions. Decorations really make the atmosphere—maybe that’s why everyone seems to have such a good time at these af- fairs. Thank you again, Mr. Kleiner. GOOD TIDINGS The Dallas Sr. High Chorus is certainly doing their part in spreading Christmas cheer this holiday season. A large crowd enjoyed the chorus presenta- tion last Sunday at the annual concert which was then repeat- ed in part for the student body today. Last Friday, the Choristers carolled at both the Shaver- town Shopping Center and Min- ers’ Bank, Dallas. On the 18th, the Seven Teens and Jesters presented a spe- cial program at the Country Club for the Women of Kiwa- nis. Several Chorister mem- bers will provide entertain- ment at the Junior High School RUG SHAMP AND PAY LATER tion's at its best. MECHANICS. quality see PHONE I's Rug Cleaning Time!

Mrs. Sherwood is doing her usual excellent job as direc- tor. DRAMA CLUB The Drama Club was quite busy the past week. In an ex- hibition of the fine talent in the club, a presentation was given to the Kiwanis Club of Dallas. Deborah Fader and D’anne Cooper acted out the Nativity scene in a style all their own. ; There were also several in- terpretive readings done by Wayne Williams, Debbie Bed- nar, Kathy Brennan, and Gale Morris. Also presented was a Stu- dent Workshop play. Sheldon Shell, a talented young sopho- more, wrote a play entitled “The Time When Help Most Needed.” Over the vacation, the dram- atists, in order to maintain their ' membership, will be working for more points in the point system. TOURNAMENTS For three days after Christ- mas, the 26th to the 28th, our noble basketball team will take part in the West Side Central Catholic Invitational Basket- ball Tournament. While the basketball team is running over its opponents, we hope the wrestling team will be jumping all over the other competitors at the Williams- port Invitational Wrestling Tournament. Good Luck! DECK THE HALLS Well, not really the halls. More like the Cafeteria and didi 373 W. Eighth St. Pa. Parts in Stock, those and Auditorium with = all Christmas trees, lights, bells. Mrs. Whithey’s art classes outdid themselves on the old- time Christmas scene painted on the big student entrance windows. Now all we need is some mistletoe. LEHMAN PRESENTATION The Senior High Chorus, con- sisting of approximately 60 members (57 actually, I count- ed them,) led by Miss Jane Morris as director (my cohort has informed that she is also the hockey-coach at Lake-Leh- man). tingled the ears of everyone at Dallas last Friday THREE BIRDS Three Seniors are spending their Christmas vacation in Florida—Carol Goeringer, Joan Parker, and Brian Beard. That's taking the easy way out. The teachers held their Christmas dinner last Friday night at the King’s Inn, fol- lowed by an evening of danc- ing. Toastmaster was Mr. Rob- ert Dolbear. Dr. Robert Mel- man and Mr. Thomas Jenkins gave Christmas Greetings. Its sort of funny to think of teachers serving on commit- tees since it usually the stu- dents who are delegated such responsibility. So, just for the heck of it, here is a list of the commit- tees: general chairman, Mr. Edgar Hughes, Jr.; reserva- tions, Mrs. Dorothy Moran and Mr. Donald J. Evans; selector of site, Mr. William Baran and Mr. Robert Marr; programs, Mrs. Emma Lang, Mrs. Doro- thy Withey and Mr. Arthur Hontz; decorations, Mrs. Mar- gret Johnson and Mrs. Doro- thy Withey; gifts, Mrs. Mary Hopkins and Miss Betty Sulli- van. wed 46 years Mr. and Mrs. Paul Nulton of Beaumont will observe their 46th wedding Anniversary on New Years Day.

The party began at 8 p.m. with appetizers being served at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Laskowski.

A misunderstanding had led supervisors to advertise, it was reported. Mr. Ziegler made a motion to accept the zoning board’s recommendation and all members of the board voted against the amendment. Mr. Ziegler asked when the Shavertown light would be placed on timing and was in- formed as soon as Rowlands Electric could take care of it. Philip Van Blarcom, member of the Back Mountain Municipal Authority reported on progress of the sewage project. He said a drilling rig had moved in and would be here for six weeks during which time it would pro- vide prospective bidder infor- mation with what is under the ground and conditions they will run into. He said the group had met with Roy F. Weston to discuss certain conditions in certain areas which would not be ceo- nomically sound to pick up. When asked the cost per homeowner, he replied, ‘‘Ap- proximately $3 per front foot plus $75 to $100 connection fee and a yearly rental of $60 to $100 depending how much Fed- eral aid is received. The lines will not extend more than 150 feet and corner lots will not be assessed twice. Operation of the sewer line is expected by 1972. Mr. Mathers asked if there would be a difference between individual costs and businesses. Van Blarcom said, “There will be a differential in the annual charge.” The sewer line will be designed for 11 feet but may go down to 30.” - ‘“The project becomes expen- sive when run through creeks and under state highways’’ he said “It may cost $6000 just to get across the road. If it enters the creek the top of the pipe must be encased in nine inches of concrete. You are going to have a wonderful system and we are doing it as economically as we can.” ~Mr. Reardon requested double faced street signs along Car- verton Road as motorists stop- ping to read same could cause accidents.

Complaint from a Warden Avenue resident of an open ditch causing dirt and dust led Mr. Hall to ask Rev. Charles Gom- mer if he would check it. He replied that the opening and closing of the hole was to be done the same day unless it is the final piece of pipe for the connection to the pump house.
