residents attend chorus festival
One hundred seventy eight
senior boys and girls repre-
senting 68 schools participated
in the Region II State Chorus
Festival which was presented
last weekend before a capacity
audience in the auditorium of
Palmerton Area High School.
The participants were those
finalists selected in the com-
petition held at District Chorus
auditions in the Eastern and
Northeastern Districts which
comprise Region II of the
Pennsylvania Music Educators’
Association.
The P.M.E.A., a branch of the
Music Educators’ National Con-
ference, is a statewide
organization of teachers, super-
visors, and other instructors
certified to teach music in the
public schools and institutions
of higher learning in the
Commonwealth of Penn-
sylvania. Its purpose is to raise
the standards of school music
and to provide students with the
opportunities of gaining
desirable musical experience.
The students represented
schools in Berks, Bradford,
Carbon, Columbia, Lacka-
wanna, Lehigh, Luzerne,
Monroe, Northampton, Nor-
thumberland, Schuylkill and
Susquehanna Counties.
Back Mountain students who
appeared with the chorus were

books by psychologist
deal with problems
Arthur: ~H.: ‘Cain 'is' a
psych@logist who received his
Ph.D! at Columbia University
and is a member of Phi Beta
Kappa and the American
Psychological Association. He
has also studied religion at the
Union Theological Seminary.
He has conducted a counseling
practice, in which many of his
clients have been troubled
young people from all classes of
society.
“To drink or not to drink?”
This is one of the most im-
portant personal questions
todag@s young person faces—
one hé must answer for himself,
sooner or later. Young People
and Lrinking is a definitive
ordi of this problem,
written expressly for the young
. person, his parents, his
teachers, and his counselors, by
an authority who has been in the
field of alcohol studies for the
past fifteen years. Dr. Cain
presents the facts about
drinking in a highly readable,
unbiased, and scientifically
sound fashion.
Drug use is probably the most
important social pitfall faced by
young people today. Dr. Cain’s
achievement in Young People
and Drugs is to peel back the
layers of myth, delusion and
A lowers For
wishful thinking that overlay
this drug scene. The author is
not" a moralizer; he writes
directly to young people in plain
English about the facts of mind"
drug use and what each
alternative entails—including
the alternative of enjoying life
to the fullest without drugs.
In Young People and
Religion, Dr. Cain examines the
basic tenets of the great
religions of the world—
Christianity, Judaism, Hin-
duism, Buddhism and Islam. He
discusses how to come to grips
with the most common blocks to
searching for a faith in our
technological and ideological
world: the seemingly old-
fashioned religious language,
the conflict of religion with
science, the psychological
‘“‘explanations’’ of religious
feelings, and the possibility of
continuing consciousness after
death. Young People and
Religion does not preach; its
purpose is instead to challenge
the reader’s intellect and
curiosity.
Other titles by Dr. Cain in-
clude Young People and Sex,
Young People and Smoking, |
and Young People and Crime—

standing performance. He

these students came from all
parts of the Eastern section of

chorus, an extremely difficult
feat to perform. He also paid

THE DALLAS POST, APRIL 8, 1971
King's annual fund
will seek $25,000
The First Annual Fund of
King’s College, with a goal of
$250,000, will be chaired by J. J:
O’Malley, native of Sebastopol
and president of the First
Federal Savings & Loan Associ-
ation of Wilkes-Barre.
The special effort will tie in
with King’s 25th anniversary
celebration as the college was
founded in Wilkes-Barre in 1964
by the Holy Cross Fathers from
the University of Notre Dame.
The three-month campaign
will be by mail and personal
contact from alumni, parents,
and friends of the college. Pre-
touches
appled to park
The finishing touches on
Phase I of Dallas Borough’s
new park at Luzerne Avenue
and Burndale Road will be
completed within a month,
reports Recreation Committee
Chairman George McCutcheon.
He anticipates that basketball
and tennis facilities will be
ready for use by early May,
with a full scale supervised re-
creation program set to go by
the end of school in June.
At a meeting of the recreation
committee Monday night, the
purchase of rectangular back
boards and double pipe supports
for basketball was approved.
Delivery of the equipment is
expected from the Mexico
first snack food
The first snack food dates
back to 1610 when a monk in
Italy baked pretzels for his
pupils as a reward for good
school work, says Harold E.
Neigh, extension consumer
economics specialist at The
Pennsylvania State University.
In 1621, an Indian chief brought
popcorn to the first
Thanksgiving dinner, and in
1854, a chef in New York City
came up with a new snack,
potato chips: Snackmaking now
is a big business

The committee also
authorized the re-surfacing of
the two tennis courts in a light .
shade of green. John Sims of
Forty Fort will do the work as
soon as the weather breaks, Mr.
McCutcheon said. The installa-
tion of nets, standards and posts
will be accomplished im-
,mediately after the resurfacing
is complete.
The prefab shelter purchased
last year by the committee will
be erected next week, Mr.
McCutcheon stated, and there is
hope that one end of the metal
building can be enclosed to
provide protection against
inclement weather. Shuffle
board courts and table tennis
tables will be installed in the
shelter. Mr. McCutcheon stated
that a water fountain and toilet
facilities will be provided for
persons frequenting the park.
The recreation committee
~acknowledged receipt of a
check for $4,200 from the State.
The amount represents the
balance of $13,000 in matching
funds awarded by the Dept. of
Community Affairs to the re-
creation committee for Phase 1
of the park.

Resurrection
Last night when twilight fell
It was not there:
But with the morning light, behold,
There bloomed a flower
Exquisite, fair—
The Easter Miracle retold.
This flower withered autumun last,
I saw its petals die,
And o’er its wasted form was rolled
The stone of winter’s tomb
From icy sky—
Death triumphed, desolate and cold.
Today it rose from earth’s dark tomb
Arrayed in beauty fair,
And by its living presence told
Of life beyond the reach
Of death’s despair—
I saw God’s brightest promise
Here unfold.
