UNGRADED CLASSES

~ Fund also were brought out in a question and an-
swer period by William Helgemo, a teacher. He
said the school board, after administering the fund
for 11 years, turned over the fund last year to the
Dallas Education Association, a teachers group.
Members of that organization, Mr. Helgemo said,
voted unanimously at the time to continue using the
student-teacher monies as a scholarship fund,
rather than as payments to individual teachers. It
was reported that at the time of the turnover to the
D.E.A., the fund had a total of $1,000, with $11,000
out on loan.
The Scholarship Loan Fund is used for non-
interest education loans to teachers, teachers’ chil--
dren, school board members’ children, custodians’
children and cafeteria workers’ children.
Information concerning the names of loan
recipients, amounts loaned, and length of time on
loans was not revealed.
In ungraded classes, Mr. Brokenshire said,
there would be a supervising teacher, two student
teachers and four teacher aides for each group of 30
students. The experimental stage would be used for
grades one through six, but the elementary super-
visor advocated usage from kindergarten through
grade 12.
There would be no passing or failing in the new
system and no report cards. The child would be in-
structed at the level he is on, rather than in age or
grade groups. Mr. Brokenshire said he felt the pro-
gram would eliminate the need for special educa-
tion or transitional classes. ‘There would be no
comparison of pupils with their peers,” he stated.
“The advantages are that the student doesn’t
have to fit a pattern,” avowed Mr. Brokenshire,
“and would enjoy the program and not be frus-
trated.”
In the meantime, until such a proposed pro-
gram can be instituted in the Dallas District, Mr.
Brokenshire said he was trying to develop a better
report card and curriculum guides for next year.
Among those in the audience were four candi-
dates for school board director—Pat Gregory, Wil-
liam Price, Louis Rubino and Malcolm Brunges.

make-up days listed
for Dallas schools
Announcement went out last
week from Dr. Robert A.
Mellman’s office concerning
make-up days for Dallas School
District. In his letter to parents
and employes of Dallas School
District, Dr. Mellman reported
the Board of Directors, at its
regular meeting March 9,
revised the 1970-71 school calen-
dar.
Schools will be in session ,
April 12 and June 18.
Should it be necessary to close
school one additional day,
school will be scheduled for
April 8. If schools are closed
more than one additional day,
the schedule will include make-
up days June 21 or 22.
Junior and senior high school
examinations will be scheduled
June 16, 17, and 18. The cafeter-
ia will be open on the days when
examinations are scheduled.
Secondary students will be
excused at 1 p.m. and elemen-
tary students at 2 p.m. June 17
and 18.
On the same three June dates,
children attending the morning
kindergarten session will be
dismissed at 11 a.m.; children
attending the afternoon kinder-
garten session will start classes
at 12 noon and will be dismissed
at 2 p.m.
Total attendance days for
1970-71 number 180, instead of
the formerly scheduled 182.
The Singing Camerons,
family of five from Aberdeen-
shire, Scotland, offered a pro-
gram of song, testimony, and
praise at the monthly banquet
meeting of the Full Gospel Busi-
nessmen March 10 at the Holi-
day Inn, Wilkes-Barre.
The Wilkes-Barre chapter of
the Full Gospel Businessmen, a
branch of the International
organization, was formed about
six months ago. Its members
are businessmen of various
denominations, including
Hebrew Christian, Catholic, and
Protestant, united for the pur-
pose of deepening Christian
fellowship among people of all
faiths through the charismatic
experience.
CANDIDATES

children, three of whom attend Dallas schools.
Melanie 16, is a junior at the high school; Casey 14,
is a ninth grader, and Daniel 11, attends the in-
termediate school. Three-year old Jack is at home.
The 44-year old candidate would like to see the
school district’s facilities, which he considers ‘‘as
fine as any around,” put to more extensive use. He
advocates ‘‘more activities in schools for
youngsters and adults alike’’ and suggests that
“evening classes and an expanded athletic
program involving intramural competition’’ might
help to utilize the facilities more fully.
Mr. Albert believes that academically, Dallas
schools ‘‘are on a par with other schools in the
area.”
A member of the Dallas Rotary Club, Irem
Temple, and Dallas Lodge 531 F&AM, Mr. Albert is
concerned that Dallas Borough will have but one
representative on the school board if he is not
elected. Presently School Direstors Hanford Eck-
man and Harry Lefko reside in Dallas Borough;
Mr. Lefko’s term of office expires in November and
he will not be a candidate for re-election.
In addition to Mr. Brunges and Mr. Albert, six
other Republicans are seeking their party’s
nomination in the May primary. They are William
H. Dierolf Jr., Leonard A. Dorrance Sr., Louis W.
Rubino, William E. Price, Patricia A. Gregory,and
Ernest Ashbridge.
Leonard C. Nordfors Sr. and Paul H. Lauer Jr.
will seek the Democratic endorsement.

to be conducted in a private dwelling. This would
include a fine arts studio, dressmaking, and
professional offices, such as medical and dental.
The zoning ordinance excludes such businesses as
beauty or barber shop, stables, dog kennels, etc.
Chairman Goeringer advised Mr. Stahl and
spectators that the three-man board would make a
decision on the variance within a week. Mr. Stahl
and Mr. Machell, as spokesman for the opposition
group, will be informed of the decision.
In one other appeal before the board, George
Trudgen sought permission to place a 70 foot by 12
foot trailer on his property on Overbrook Avenue.
He stated it would be placed on block walls, would
have its own well, and would be connected even-
tually to sewer lines of Dallas Area Municipal
Authority.
Mr. Trudgen will be apprised of the board’s
decision within a week.

Authority, Mr. Muench had participated in an ‘‘ex-
change of information” with Roy F. Weston, #
Dallas authority’s engineering firm, before fis
death. Mr. Muench had been directed by the Har-
veys Lake Municipal Authority to determine
whether it would be more feasible for Harveys
Lake Borough to build its own sewage treatment
facility or to become a customer of the Dallas Area
Municipal Authority.
Mr. Martin stated that a report from Weston
containing the requested cost estimates should be
available for consideration by the Harveys Lake
Municipal Authority at its next regularly scheduled
meeting April 1.
