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.

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.

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.
