ot e+ lr = United Fund representatives meet to coordinate publicity Thomas P. Shelburne, Cen- termoreland, vice president and general manager of WNEP-TV, and campaign public relations chairman, Wyoming Valley United Fund, presided at a luncheon meeting of United Fund representatives, at the Treadway Inn. This was another in the series of meet- ings encompassing the Scran- ton, Wilkes-Barre, and Hazleton area in coordinating the publicity aspects of the fall campaign. Mr. Shelburne announced that ABC, NBC and CBS national television networks would each send a national tele- vision celebrity into the area for participation in a TV broadcast and event, in conjunction with the kickoff of the local United Fund campaigns. Discussion centered around planning for this program, and around the general publicity ap- proach. Common theme and poster design were analyzed, and TV and radio spot promo- nostalgic reminders ofthe bygone days For years, Herman Thomas was a devoted patron of the BackMountain Memorial Li- brary Auction. Sitting on the crest of the hill with his wife Alice, Mr. Thomas would greet Auction-goers with a heartiness appreciated by young and old alike. It was a tradition of long- standing for Mr. Thomas to open bidding at the Auction, and auctioneers would often select articles of no possible use to Mr. Thomas as the first items to be sold across the block. They pommel’ drawing a generous bid fro® him and generous laughter from the crowd with this bit, of mischief, and they al- ways Mew both. - Dallas residents injured July 3 Three Dallas residents were injured in a two car accident July 3 at 5:45 p.m. in the township. Police report the accident occurred at East 42nd Street and Hays Corners Road when a vehicle driven by Lee S. Watson, RD 2, Dallas, traveling south on Hays Corners Road collided with a vehicle operated by William Barto, East 42nd Street. According to police reports, Mr. Barto was traveling west and had stopped to make a left hand turn onto 42nd Street when the coMsion occurred. He was taken by a passing motorist, ‘Dave Carey, Dallas, to Nesbitt Memorial Hospital where he . was treated and released. Mr. Watson and his 8-year-old daughter Betty, were taken to the sa®e hospital by the Dallas ambulance. Mr. Watson was treated and released; his daughter was admitted in “fair’’ condition. Both vehicles were totally destroyed by the impact of the collision. The accident was investigated by Dallas Town- ship Patrolman Douglas Lam- oreaux assisted by Special Pat- rolman Jim Davies, Dallas Bor- ough. With the death of Mr. Thomas earlier this year, a part of Auc- tion tradition died too. - This year, a magnificent deerskin jacket and Stetson hat which belonged to Mr. Thomas has been donated by his widow for sale across the Auction block. Valued at $175, the jacket is fringed and fashioned of the softest deerskin imaginable. Like the jacket, the Stetson hat was purchased by Mr. Thomas shortly before his death and is valued at $75. During this 24th annual Li- brary Auction, the deerskin jacket and Stetson hat will be bittersweet reminders of a man who contributed much to make the Auction the spirited adven- ture it always is. Hill House opens with unique help Restaurants are inclined to use such flowery phrases as “dine in a unique, secluded atmosphere” when advertising their places of business, but what makes the Hill House at Harveys Lake unique is the people running it. All personnel, from the owners to the dishwashers, are under 19 years of age. And al- though Hill House boasts a French atmosphere in a secluded place (it’s near the Outlet section of Harveys Lake at the ski area) it is open only from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Founded last year by Jim Pearsall, who cooks and does the book work, the young con- cern has two headwaiters, Scotty Milnor from Connecticut and Ed St. Phillips of Sarasota, Fla.; two waitresses, Cindy Pearsall, Jim’s sister, and Denise Strojny, Harveys Lake; a water, bread and butter girl, Yvonne Pearsall, cousin of Jim’s, and Jed Pearsall, Jim’s brother, whose speciality is Caesar salad. Jim is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Adrian Pearsall, Harveys Lake. FURNITURE GREENWA' IN LUZERNE PLENTY OF FREE PARKING SR "OPEN FRIDAY NIGHTS ONE STOP SHOPPING .

Amazing 1-Coat Hiding Power with Either Lead-Latex Linseed 0il A spectacular freak accident at Carverton Road and Route 309 Tuesday morning left a dump truck and about 80 feet of cinderblock retaining wall spewed into Toby’s Creek. The mishap occurred when a B61 Mack truck, driven by James Patrick Parker, 91 James St., Shavertown, and owned by John Connolly Con- struction Co., 460 Union St., Luzerne, rolled backwards over the 30 foot high retaining wall, setting up a chain reaction that tore cinderblocks loose along the creekside from the truck to the bridge at Carverton Road. PAGE FIVE truck takes wall into Toby’ s Creek Mr. Parker was giving directions to another truck driver at the time of the ac- cident and was not in his truck, although witnesses said he gave chase when he saw the truck drift backwards. Chief Herbert Updyke, Kingston Township, called for assistance from local firemen to rope off the area. He placed the time of the accident at 9:40 a.m. Later in the afternoon heavy equipment was being used to retrieve the truck by pulling it up from the creekbed and out the opposite side at the rear of Bullock’s Service Station.
