Trucksville ‘United Methodist Church, will be speaker. dental health week here On Monday, Feb. 3, as part ‘of the Dental Health Week Pro- gram, Dr. Charles Lawley ' spoke to the health and human biology classes at Dallas Senior High School on proper dental ‘care. Dr. Lawley studied at Temple University and was graduated from medical school in 1966. He put his dental license to good .use as an Air Force captain in Charleston, South Carolina, and is presently part of the Back Mountain Dental Clinic, Car- verton Road, Trucksville. The Luzerne County Dental Association in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Health De- partment, invited Dr. Lawley "+ to speak to the health and hu- man biology classes, and to ac- quaint students with the in- tricacies of the teeth. Aided by charts, Dr. Lawley instructed his audiences in the structure and nature of teeth, preventive maintenance, dental facts, and even with some of the special techniques of a dentist. He stressed the advantages of fluoride and the importance .of a proper diet, showed correct brushing procedures, and men- tioned points of interest such as the fact that 30 to 40 per cent of the braces worn today would be unnecessary if proper care had been given to baby teeth. - Dr. Lawley also tried to im- press upon the students the growing need for dentists, ex- pecially/in this area, and the many opportunities open in the career of dentistry. The Dallas School District also operates a Dental Clinic, every Thursday morning in the Dallas Senior High School. Dr. Anthony W. Kutz, Dallas, is the dentist for this program, assisted by Mrs. Doris P.

DALLAS SENIOR By CHERYL FUTCH and SCOTT PETERMAN Mmbers of the Junior Class are now in rehearsal for this year’s Junior Play, entitled ‘I Remember Mama.” The play is a dramatic comedy centering around the lives of an immi- grant family living in San Francisco in the early 1900's. Due to the fact that this is a period play, costumes are needed to provide authenticity. The costume committee will appreciate hearing from mem- bers of the community who may have clothing from this period to lend for the evenings of the play. Students from the Junior Class will be traveling in the community on Feb. 13 and 14 conducting the Junior Play Patron drive. Contributions will be gratefully appreciated. Members of the community are invited to attend perform- ances of the play on March 13 and 14 at 8:00 p.m. in the High School auditorium. Tickets may be purchased from any member of the Junior class or at the door on the evenings of the performances. Keyettes The Circle K from Luzerne County Community College in- vited the Keyettes of Dallas to participate in a program that involves taking care of under- privileged children from the Wilkes-Barre area. Every other Saturday, the Keyettes help out by tutoring in the morning. After a 12 to 1 lunch break provided by the local restaurants they take the children to the movies, his- torical societies, etc. L.C.C.C. intend to broaden the program by inviting the St. Stanislaus and St. Michael's schools. Mr. George McCutch- eon is in charge of the pro- gram. Girls’ Basketball The second ‘half of girls’ bas- ketball season is already well underway, with Dallas hosting Lehman and Nanticoke this week. Cheryl Hontz, a sophomore member of the J.V. team, was hospitalized with injuries re- ceived, last, Thursday, during the. Wyoming Valley = West game. We hope it is a speed: recovery, Cheryl. Fashion and Design Guest speaker at a recent meeting of the Fashion and Design Club was the Avon area manager, Mrs. Cloak. Mrs. Cloak showed two films, one of them on perfumes and their origin—an interesting subject. District Orchestra The art classes cleverly deco- rated the front window and caf- eteria walls. Mr. Lewis ran frantically back and forth at- HIGH SCHOOL tending to last minute details. The cafeteria staff prepared to work overtime in order to keep up the energy of the musicians. Choristers donned their new uniforms to act as guides. And then Thursday morning dawned. Select musicians poured in from all over the state to par- ticipate in the annual District Orchestra which Dallas #8 privileged to host this year. So, without permission, of course, I slipped into the back of the auditorium to watch part of the rehearsal, hoping my press card would get me out of any trouble I might happen to - get into. Up on stage, Mr. Keith Brown of Temple University, was painstakingly rehearsing with the brass section. His en- thusiasm was conveyed by the players, and within seconds I was totally lost in the music. The orchestra played for the school Friday afternoon, and the public performance was given Saturday night. I can’t think of any adjective othgr than ‘‘engrossing’ to tei the result of this combined ef- fort of talented high school musicians. A special thanks to those area families who took an out-of- town student into their home for the weekend, and to everytngs: else who helped make Distrit/ Orchestra possible. Happy Valentine’s Day three agencies in deer study A cooperative study to deter- mine the effect of deer on vegetation, and food supplies on deer, has been launched in northern Huntingdon County by the Pennsylvania Game Com- .mission, the Pennsylvania De- partment of Forests and Waters and the Pennsylvania State University. Game managers and forest- ers have long been in need of "better information on deer car- rying capacity of forests. at _.various stages of growth. In- direct determinations made in the past; such as through mea- suring the amount of available winter browse, have not been fully accurate in showing how many whitetails a range wll support. The project is unique in that it is the first such known st in an oak-hickory forest type. Knowledge = expected to be gained in this research will be especially valuable to the wild- life manager in maintaining a deer herd in balance with avail- able food supplies.
