highlight show
More than 3,000 persons attended the fifth
annual Idetown Horse Show each day at the horse
show grounds, Lehman, Aug. 15 and 16. Those in at-
tendance at the affair sponsored by the Jonathan R.
Davis Fire Company, had the opportunity to view
performances by the Northeastern Pennsylvania
Ripcord Sky Diving club.
The Ripcords are among the finest para-
chutists in the Country with each of the three men
averaging 800 jumps.
Another highlight of the show was the presen-
tation of the dapple grey pony, saddle, bridle and
breast collar which were chanced off by the fire
company and won by Mr. and Mrs. Lee Bicking,
Dallas. The Bickings turned the pony over to the
show to be auctioned off. A proud grandfather,
Byron Kester, Demunds Road, Centermoreland,
purchased the little animal for two great grandchil-
dren, Roger and Susan Belles, children of Mr. and
Mrs. Roger Belles, Centermoreland.
The high point Western Trophy, which consis-
ted of a Western saddle, bridle and breast collar,
was won by Lisa Gilbert, York, who rode Tweed
Coat.
The horsemen and spectators were kept busy
with contestants in classes in both English and
Western categories.
Idetown Horse Show chairman Ed Gilmer said
he extends thanks to everyone who helped during
the show. They did such an outstanding job.
PARK NEARS COMPLETION

on Phase I of the project for adequate parking.
Some suggested that since at present there is
unused space on the site of Phase II, the area
across from Phase I on Burndale Road, it could be
temporarily used for parking.
Mr. McCutcheon read the Grant Contract
which is drawn up between Pennsylvania State Re-
creation Division, Harrisburg, and the Borough
Recreation Board. It was stated in the contract that
Dallas Borough had been granted $13,255.00 for the
Phase I of the recreation project. The total cost of
construction on the 175x250 foot site is $26,510. The
contract, which terminates Dec. 31, also stated that
there was to be no discrimination; that records of
‘everything pertaining to the program are subject to
audit prior to final reimbursement, and that the
board must repay any of the amount not used.
Two youths, Arlene Kozick, Machell Avenue,
and Peter Shiner, Sterling, were present at the
meeting and will serve on the board in the future.
A meeting of the Recreation Board is scheduled
Aug. 27 at 7:30 p.m. in the Borough Building at
which time bids on athletic equipment will be re-
viewed.
TEACHERS PROTEST
(continued from PAGE ONE)
Mr. LaBerge said that several points in the letter
are in conflict with what actually happened. He
said it is the responsibility of the board to set the
school calendar and that the teachers knew the
board was considering modification of the school
day and school calendar.
Earl Fritzges, board member, said he was ‘‘not
going to abdicate my responsibilities to the
teachers.” He said he felt his responsibilities as a
member of the board and as a representative of the
taxpayers.
Mr. Helgemo said he understood the teachers
were to have voice in how the additional time was
to be used and that the teachers did not know there
would be two additional teaching days. Mr.
LaBerge replied that this matter had been dis-
cussed.

Harveys Lake man
jogets Fulbright award
The Fulbright Scholarship program, as is
everything else, is feeling the economic belt grow-
ing taut about its academic waistline. There have
been fewer awards made in recent years with
greater screening of the initially stringent applica-
tion qualifications. So when a Fulbright covering a
full year’s expenses abroad is awarded there is just
provacation for rejoicing.
Wyoming Seminary, Kingston, has received
word from the Dept. of Health, Education and Wel-
fare that Herbert Quick of Harveys Lake, RD 1, has
been awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to teach in
England this coming year. Mr. Quick is chairman
of the language department at Wyoming Seminary.
He will take a year’s leave of absence from teach-
~ ing responsibilities under a newly inaugurated sab-
batical program recently passed by the ged
school’s Board of Trustees. Y/
In announcing Mr. Quick’s Fulbright award,
Wallace F. Settler, president of Wyoming Semin-
ary, said, “Residents of the Back Mountain area
have still another reason for taking pride in their
citizenry. We at Seminary are confident that Mr.
Quick’s experiences during the coming year will
not only be rewarding to our school and its faculty,
but to the community whose standards the Quicks’
exemplify.”
Mr. Quick and his wife, the former Gwen
Evans, will leave for England at the end of the
month with their daughter, Kathryn. They will live
at Crediton, Devon, in southwestern England,
where he will teach French at Queen Elizabeth’s
School. His wife is a former Fulbright recipigxt,
having taught in France in 1959.
The Fulbright Scholarship program in which
Mr. Quick will participate is one of six areas, allge-
signed to, ““. . .increase mutual understanding be-
tween the people of the United States and people of
other countries.” General eligibility requirements
of the Fulbright Program include the equivalent
professional status of the Ph.D., and at least three
years teaching experience on the secondary level.
Mr. Quick is a native of Endicott, N.Y. and a
graduate of Wyalusing High School and Wilkes
College. He studied at McGill University and the
Sorbonne, and received the Master’s degree in
French from Middlebury College. He taught at
Thurmont High School, Thurmont, Md., and at the
Ecole Nouvelle, Chailly-sur-Lausanne, Switzer-
land, before joining the faculty of Wyoming Semin-
ary in 1957.

. processing gold and copper;
cotton ginning and the burning
of cotton trash; use as pesti-
cide; combustion.
Effects on humans, animals
.and plants—Arsenical dusts
may produce dermatitis, bron-
medicines containing arsenic
has produced growths and
cancers of the skin. The rela-
tionship of arsenic to other
types of cancer, partigalarly
lung tumors, is uncertais:. Her-
bivorous animals have been
poisoned after eating plants
contaminated with arsenic
compounds.
Abatement and Control
Methods—1. Use of air cleaning
devices to remove particulates
from smelters and cotton gins.
Equipment must operate at
temperature low enough (100 -
degrees centigrade to condense
arsenic fumes. Electrostatic
precipitators, cooling flues, bag
houses, especially those using
wet scrubbing vacuum pumps
instead of fabric filters. 2. No
