High on the list of questions which the CCEC has continually asked is why must a nuclear plant be constructed in their area as long as leading scien- tists cannot agree on the safety of nuclear: power generation generally. Why, they wonder, are they expected to live near a nuclear plant when such a facility is considered too dangerous to be placed near a large melropolitan region. Though unreported in most of the regional press, the state of Pennsylvania last month asked the AEC to bar construction of a nuclear power plant on a Delaware River island 11 miles from Philadelphia. It was the first time a state has asked the AEC to onc rutin of a nuclear plait al a specific site. The state's petition was based solely on the site’s proximity to PRA elon “which has" a population’ bf Tore’ than two million. a “This was the only reason we intervened,” W.W. Anderson, depuly state attorney general said last week. "We do not want a nuclear power plant this close {0 the largest city in the state.” ‘ The proposed plant involves the construction of two con- venlional-lype nuclear reactors by the Public Service Electric & Gas Co. on Newbold Island on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River 4.5 miles south of Trenton, and 11 miles north- east of Philadelphia. Construction has not yet begun because the AEC has not struction permit. One of the gian( pressure vessels for the heart of the plant, however, is under construction by a ‘Japanese firm. In its pejgtion to the AEC the state poldded out that the location is in one of the most heavily populated regions of the Northeast. “In the event of an “accident resulting in a sub- stantial release of radioactive materials to the environment,” the petition reads, the Ieihoogy of a substantial number of “deaths and injuries resulting therefrom is con- siderable.” | HARMONY, TOREDO, “ARIA, GIBSON & GUILD GUITARS (continued from PAGE ONE) Charging that the proximity of the Newbold Island location to domestic water intakes on the Delaware River presents ‘a health hazard, the petition said “This could in the event of an accidental water-borne release of radioactive material present an unacceptable risk of radiation exposure to a large fraction of the population of the commonwealth.” The Penelec statement regarding the Wyoming County site said simply that company officials confirmed that while that location was no longer *'in aclive consideration for the nation’s first demonstration- size liquid metal fast breeder reactor,” the utility. would continue to evaluate the property for possible future installation of a . generating facility to meet regional demands for electric energy. Penelee officials ‘noted that the studies made at the Wyoming County site, including the topography, geology, hydrology, meteorlogy, and other health and environmental characteristics, had demon- strated that the property was very appropriate for ipstalla- tion’ of a fast breeder. The site, they said, was particularly attractive for a medium size, economical power source to match the growth in local energy requirements and assure high levels of reliability for the regional electrical network. Penelec officials said that {here was no specific commit- ment at this time for use of the site. But they did, however, say the property will be considered in the process of advance planning of power facilities, including nuclear, gas, or coal fueled power plants. (Editor’s Note: Although Greenstreet News Co. publica- tions had begun a series of seven articles prepared by the Tunkhannock Women’s Club dealing. with the fast breeder nuclear reactor, the series will not continue in light of "the company decision to scrap the Wyoming County proposal.) \ 696-1129 MON.-THURS. 9-9 696-1224 FRI. & SAT. 8-5 Workshop Planned for Campground Managers A campground management workshop will be conducted Feb. 26, beginning at 9:30 a.m. al the Penn Stroud Motor Inn, Stroudsburg, according to Ralph Beard, associate county agent.

The Gregory building, a land- mark in Dallas since 1927, was razed Friday and is now a pile of rubble waiting to be carted away. But it was not always thus, and there are old-timers businesses that occupied it— with great affection. Althea Gregory, widow of Charles Gregory, remembers that her husband built the two- story brick building to house his barber shop and a restaurant called The Witch Kitch-Inn, which was operated by Mrs. Robert Hislop Sr. The Hislops also operated the dance hall which occupied the building’s second floor, but when the dance business fell on hard times, Mrs. Gregory de- signed an apartment where she and her husband lived for some time. She recalls that Clyde Veitch, the local builder who converted the hall into an apart- ment, complimented her on the design of her new “home.” After the Gregorys moved from the apartment, the up- stairs was converted to of- fices—which were occupied in turn by a beauty parlor, Besecker’s realty company, and several attorneys. Downstairs, Mr. Gregory opened a men’s shoe store and haberdashery, while maintain- ing his barber shop in a rear office. Mrs. Gregory notes that her husbnad was a barber for nearly 60 years, and that he was extremely proud of the fact that his customers included seven generations of Hislops! Mrs. Gregory 78, explains Crane Accident Injures Worker A crane accident injured two workmen of Tri-County Con- structors Tuesday morning on the site of the secondary (reatment plant. Apparently neither man was seriously injured. Both were taken to Nesbitt Memorial Hospital, where one was treated and released. The other workman was kept in the hospital for observation. Thr more seriously injured man was transported in Kingston Township ambulance, with William Pugh and Walter Davis Jr. as crew. A spokesman for Tri-County Constructors would not com- ‘ment on the mishap. Repor- tedly, the crane boom ‘kinked’ and the two men were thrown to the ground. It was said other workmen formed a human chain to bring up one of the men from where he was lying in a creek bed. Cigarette smoking can rob you of years of life.
