down Shan iced a Five industrious and compas- sionate youngsters from Parish Heights, Dallas held a neigh- he carnival Saturday afternt#® Proceeds from this very successful venture will be sent to the Muscular Distrophy Foundation of America. Polly Amershek, 12, Joseph Street, saw an advertisement of Jerry Lewis asking for help to find a cure for muscular dis- trophy. A pamphlet stated that there was a kit available to help children preparing a neighbor- hood carnival. Polly sent for the kit and together with a few next door neighbors, held a very successful affair. ! Cathy and Carol Kostrzewski, Jeff Spudia and Jimmy Mul- hern, under Polly’s direction, worked very hard in setting up games of chance, booths and ta- bles. One mother donated pota- to pancakes, another! Koolaid and another lemonade and pop- corn. There were lollypops, loons. The kids raided their toy boxes for prizes, and by 5:30 p.m. they were almost sold out of everything. Five tired but happy young- sters put away their tables and carnival remains Saturday night and carefully counted the proceeds of $13.11. Polly will send the money to the Muscular Distrophy Foundation and each child will receive a special Jerry Lewis award. Employers who were wiped out by the Hurricane Agnes floods would not be charged for unemployment compensation benefits paid to employes under a bill passed by the House last week and sent to the Senate for its study and approval. Rep. Frank J. O'Connell (R- Luzerne), a sponsor of H.B. 854, said the theory is that ‘‘if and employeg js wiped out by floods, or any fre natural disaster, he should be encouraged to start anew to provide jobs for those thrown out of work.” The bill does not charge bene- fits paid to employes to an employer’s account for a period of eight weeks. It would also apply to all future natural dis- asters where a Governor declares a state of emergency. Mr. O’Connell said it is esti- mated that charges caused by the flood-related jobless pay- ments amount to approxiately $25 million. H. B. 854 would reallocate fund revenues from specific employers who were ployer community in Pennsyl- vania through the state adjust- ment factor in the tax rate.

The supervisors discussed the fact that it would be costly to advertise the whole ordinance before passage, as prescribed by law, eventually hire a zoning officer, draw up zoning ordin- ances and establish a zoning office in township limits. Supervisor Dorothy Bryant stated that she had not received any requests for flood insurance and knew of no one in Lake Township who wanted it. The Ye develops maximum 1 HP. $59.99 YOUR CHOICE other supervisors were in ac- cordance with her opinion. The matter will be shelved until such time as township residents indicate a need for insurance. A contract was awarded to Company for $5,550 to pave 3700 square yards with compact three inch asphalt. It was the only bid received for the project. Secretary Judy Steltz was instructed to pay $1,175 to the United Penn Bank on bond number three. Mrs. Steltz requested that the supervisors decide for what project they would use the Federal Revenue Sharing Fund, because a form must be adver- tised and returned to the government before the money is used. The supervisors decided that the money would be used for transportation, or road department work. Luzerne County Planning Commission requested a sewer project survey be made in the township. The board decided to remain with the present, one acre per house unit, which they now use, and will inform the Commission that it is not neccessary to conduct a sewage survey. Tax exonerations were ac- cepted and approved. The township auditors voted to set the salary of roadmaster, Walter Hoover, at $3 per hour with a mileage allowance of 15 cents per mile. Mr. Hoover was advised to check the legality of the mileage allowance before he turned in his bill to the secre- tary. : Mrs. Steltz was also instru- cted to write letters to the owners of trailer parks and the County Board of Assessors to check on the tax status of trailer home residents. Township Solicitor William Valentine Jr. informed the board that he had filed a mandamus against Harveys Lake Borough and the papers were to be served to John a u Stenger secretary to the council. Solicitor Valentine also noted that Edward Meck had filed, July 9, a motion to dismiss the motion to dismiss in Federal Court. A group of attorneys tain police had filed a motion to dismiss Mr. Meck’s charges in the spring. He was bringing suit for $5 million against local police departments and the case was dismissed. Then he brought suit against certain individuals on the police force. This second action is the one now being decided by a Federal judge. The solicitors are taking proper procedures, Mr. Valentine Page 11 stated. The board will meet Thursday night to discuss thoroughly an amendment to the township landfill ordinances. They hope to pass an ordinance at their September meeting.
