James Derhammer, Upper Demunds Road, Dallas, was involved in a one-car accident but there was no information available at press time. Officer James Kelly investigated. Patrolman Russel Banta reported an accident on Upper Demunds Road at 6:40 p.m. Sunday. Gertrude Brown, R. 278 N. Main St., Wilkes-Barre, was traveling south and failed to make a turn. She went off the road into a field. Damages were estimated at $250. Dallas Borough Two one-vehicle accidents in the area of the Huntsville Road- Norton Avenue intersection combined with the accident in- volving Sen. T. Newell Wood make up the week’s car mis- haps in the borough. At. 9:25 p.m. Aug. 24, Sev Newberry investigated an acci- dent at the intersection men- tioned above. Ernest Martin, RD 1, Dallas was driving his Ford truck south on Huntsville Road when the brakes failed. To avoid Main Street traffic and turns, he attempted to make a left turn onto Norton Avenue. He struck a tree at the corner. The Truck was towed to Wes- ley’s Gulf station with an esti- mated $1,000 damage. Officer Newberry was also at the scene of an Aug. 22, 11 p.m., accident 100 feet north of Norton Avenue on Huntsville Road. Steven Paul Summa, 29 Water St., Dallas, was heading north on Huntsville Road when he re- ports a truck came over the crest in the road in his lane. In an effort to miss the truck, he hit a pole, doing approximately $800 damage to his car. Borough police chief Ray Titus reports that the investiga- tion of the break-in and bur- glary at the Dallas Dairy and Dallas Finance Company is coming along well. He added that he hopes to have ‘‘some- thing on that this week.” The chief noted that a burglar had gotten $35 from a Pepsi machine at the Dallas Sunoco station, and $2.50 from one at the Bill Davis Market. As the / machines are not broken into, it appears that the burglar, or burglars, has a key to the Pepsi machines. Kingston Township Three accidents were re- ported in Kingston Township over the weekend. Two happen- ed Sunday and one Saturday. The first occurred on Route 309. Aug. 25, at 2:40 p.m. when Mila Wasil, RD 4, Dallas at- tempted to make a right hand turn from the passing lane and pulled into the front of a car dri- ven by Milton Jones, 432 E. Market St., Kingston. Both cars were travelling south. There were no injuries. Dallas Township patrolman James Gruyer investigated and estimated damages at $500 to the Jones Vehicle and $200 to the Wasil car. An early morning, one-car accident was reported on Car- verton Road Sunday at 4:30 a.m. when John Huhn, Frances Slocum Trailer Park fell asleep at the wheel of his car and ran into the yard of Doris Switzer, causing $500 in damages. There were no injuries. Luther Rozelle investigated. Another accident happened on Carverton Road at 8:26 a.m. when Thomas Wilson pulled out of the parking lot next to the Trucksville Pharmacy and was hit by a car driven by Barry Pizzano, 4 Chestnut Térrace, Pittston, broadside. Mr. Wil- liams stated that he didn’t see the Pizzano vehicle when he checked before pulling out of the lot. Patrolmen John Appel and Elliot Ide investigated and esti- mated damages to the Pizzano car at $300. There were no damages to the Wilson car. The story of who set fire to a barn owned by Joseph W. Park, RD 4, Dallas, Lehman Town- ship, and other information about criminal activity, came out after a violent argument between friends. Two charges of simple assault, two of arson and three of burglary await hearing by Dallas magistrate Leonard Harvey as a result of the argument. Other charges are expected to come in from Columbia County as well. John G. Ladamus, 246 E. Thomas St., Miners Mills, Wilkes-Barre, and William Henry Oliver, 41 Nittancock St., Wilkes-Barre, are charged with arson, in connection with a fire set to a rural, two-story frame barn owned by Mr. Parks, and valued at $100,000. Mr. Ladamus and Roy Kerwin, 246 E. Thomas St., Miners Mills, stand charged with simple as- sault, as it is charged that they kicked Mr. Oliver out of a moving motor vehicle on Flat Road in Plymouth Township, following an argument. Mr. Oliver, Mr. Kerwin and Oscar Stackhouse, RD 1, Nescopeck, are charged with the burglary of the J and J Diner, route 11, one mile south of route 29, Plymouth Township, for taking $494 worth of eight-track tape equipment, home repair equipemnt and cigarettes. Information on which the charges were filed was obtained WEDNESDAY - ex. milk. FHURSDAY- tato chips. applesauce. milk. FRIDAY Pizza or peanut butter and jelly sandwich. cabbage salad. fruited gelatin with topping. milk. GATE OF HEAVEN WEDNESDAY Hot dog on buttered bun. baked beans, potato and butter. FRIDAY sticks. orange juice. milk. cake. milk. . cookie. milk. when Mr. Oliver told police of being kicked out of the moving vehicle and injured by Mr. Ladamus and Mr. Kerwin. In his effort to get back at the two men, Mr. Oliver aroused the interest of the State Police, with some of his knowledge of the men’s wrong doings. Extensive questioning by the State Police resulted in the is- suance of the arson and burglary charges, and probably will result in charges from Columbia County. The arson complaints were issued by Tpr. Nicolas J. Gushka, fire mar- shall for the Pennsylvania State Police, Wyoming barracks. The complaint claims that the arson took place, March 2 of this year. The burglary charge was filed by Tpr. Donald Tressler, of the Shickshinny State Police bar- racks. The simple assault charges were filed on behalf of Mr. Oliver by William Kinney, a patrolman with the Plymouth Township police department. It is claimed that at 2:45 a.m. Aug. 21, Mr. Ladamus kicked Mr. Oliver out of the moving car, as Mr. Kerwin held the door open.

III. © 34-2-¢ A hearing had been scheduled on all charges mentioned, before magistrate Harvey, Aug. 28, at 10 a.m., but a continuance has since been established. The hearing is now set for Sept. 6. The continuation was neces- sitated by confusion over the public defense of the four men. Two public defenders were required for the hearing; only one appeared. The four therefore remain in jail, in default of bail. Bail of $2,500 was set for each charge of simple assault; $10,000 for each charge of arson; and $5,000 each for the charges of burglary.
