Walt Zell (continued from PAGE ONE) Mr. Zell, who isn’t one to skirt around the fact that he and his group are looking for donations (a press release to the Post con- tainsa P.S., “we could use some wheelchairs for the fellows...We could use some funding, t00.”), reports that the association would be glad to receive a “one ve old wheelchair. “One gat we could fix up for serviceton the basketbal court.” Funding will also come from donations at exhibition games they will put on; and from ask- ing service clubs for chairs and other help, he reports. A chair has already been donated to the association by the parents of Jim Kreidler, 77 James St., Shavertown. Jim is confined to a wheelchair, and is often seen at Dallas High School athletic events; he’s an. avid fan. Jim can’t play with the asso- ciation club, but he comes to practices, and has become the team scorekeeper. The athletes association is open to female members, as well. One of their lady members is a fine swimmer, another spe- cializes in the throwing events of track and field competition. Mr. Zell points out that his wife is a one-time winner of a Norristown bowling tourna- ment. She has a 147 average. “There are some fantastic handicapped athletes,” Mr. Zell told the Post. He noted that an Allentown man, Kenny McHenry, holds the mile, wheelchair record, six minutes and 37 seconds. He has known a man who could get out of his wheelchair to bench press 444 pounds. He knew a 112-pound in- divicial who pressed 300 pounds from "his wheelchair. Every four years, shortly after the regular Olympics, ‘we hold our National Olympics”, he told us. A Philadelphia wheelchair basketball team was just barely beaten by the world champion- ship Israeli team, when it re- cently toured the country. There are about 60 wheelchair teams throughout the United ‘States. If Mr. Zell can get a competitive team together, they will play teams from the Middle Atlantic division of the Eastern conference. There are Norris- town, Harrisburg, and Allen- town, and two Philadelphia teams in the division. ‘Basketball is our winter sport”, Mr. Zell explains, “in the spring we’ll take up track.” V@l§ and Mrs. Zell live on the Harveys Lake-Dallas Highway, across and a little down the road frong the Idetown Fire Hall. Eva¥ything in it is built to ac- commodate people with wheel- chairs. There isn’t a step in the house. The only change of level in the home that isn’t ramped is the doorsill. Painting Tips—If you are planning to paint your kitchen or bathroom walls, Extension specialists at The Pennsylvania State University remind you that kitchen walls are usually covered with a film of grease. And bathroom walls may have steamed-on dirt. You must re- move the grease and dirt before y paige. Wash the surface with a st?ong household cleaner, tur- pentine or mineral spirits. If the paint is gloss or semi-gloss, cut the gloss with fine sandpaper or steel wool so the new coat of The recent area resident moved here from Philadelphia because he became ‘perturbed with the nearby muggings and killings and vandalism.”” And because he and his wife have al- ways loved the Harveys Lake area. Mr. Zell runs a tax account- ing, auditing and real estate business from his Lehman Township home. He left a good “practice is Philadelphia, after after 35 years in the same busi- ness, to come to the Back Moun- tain area. He holds a business degree from LaSalle College, Philadel- phia. Perhaps feeling that his busi- ness and his athletic association might still leave him some time for sitting still, he has also made himself a candidate for Lehman Township tax collec- tor.

Before you discard an unused household item, ask yourself why you aren’t using it. Ex- tension home management specialists at The Pennsylvania State University, say these reasons could include such things as: you haven’t learned how to use it; it may need repair; it never worked ef- fictively; it was hard to get your hands on because of unhandy storage space; or it may only have sentimental value. After you decide why you want to discard the item, you may decide it would be better to put it to use. THE SOUTHDALE ‘TRAP & GUN CLUB Jonestown-Watertown Rd. Shickshinny, Pa.

Wilkes came up the victors in both matches this year, but the Highlanders posted three wins before the sea- son ended. Bear hunters are reminded that this year Pennsylvania has new requirements concerning the tagging and reporting of bruins harvested during the one-day season, Nov: 19. This year each person killing a bear shall immediately, after removing the entrails, but in any event, within one hour, and before transporting or moving the carcass in any manner from where it was killed, prepare and attach a home-made tag giving the person’s name, address, li- cense number, and time, date and county where killed. Prior to this year, each hunt- ing license contained a big game tag which could be at- tached to the bear. This year the big game tag, which is part of the hunting license, is for use on deer only. The tag should not be attached to a bear. Bear hunters would be well turning it to the original con- tainer, says Sidney Barnard, Extension dairy specialist at The Pennsylvania State Univer- advised to take with them a piece of cardboard or other The Victorians believed that a heavy cough could be cured by eating a bowl of raw onions, The next cough must have been breathtaking. 7 Get Involved Join The . 109th FIELD ARTILLERY %* YOU get a chance fo earn even more. * YOU get better pay than most people think. ¥8 * YOU get the satisfaction of teaching others.

Corporation wants you to be warm this winter. And save on heating costs, too. In light of the current, nation-wide energy I crunch, it's more important than ever to con- serve energy. And the fact is, it takes twice as much fuel to heat an uninsulated house as an {| insulated one—due to heat loss. No matter how well, or how poorly, your house may be insulated, chances are you can save on heating costs—and conserve precious energy, too. 33% Here’s how: I| Startin the attic. "In an uninsulated house, 33% of heat loss goes through the roof. Make sure your attic is well insulated. Choose insulation by its “R” value. The higher the “R” value, the greater its Il insulating ability. Seal openings from the heat~d spaces below, but keep outdoor air vents Lpen in the winter to prevent conden- sation in the insulation and other building materials. : Inspect the whole house. Another 33% of heat loss in an uninsulated house goes through walls, ceilings, and floors. ooo 0 0 10% Go through the house and make notes of all un- insulated areas you find.

Main St., Nanticoke garage, makesurethere’s insulation beneath the floor. ; Insulation can pay for itself in reduced I heating costs. Put up storm doors and windows. Doors and windows account for 24% of heat loss in an insulated house. Installing storm doors and windows, or insulating glass, can cut this heat loss in half. You can also reduce heat loss by drawing shades or draperies at night, and on cold days when the sun isn’t shining. Seal up cracks. Inan uninsulated house, openingsand cracks be- ‘tween door and window frames cause heat loss, too. Seal openings under doors and windows with metal or felt strip, and close up cracks be- tween door and window frames with ready- made rope putty. You may reduce your heating costs by up to 30%. And while you're at it, be sure to replace any cracked window panes where heat might escape. Whether you can cut down on heat loss by 80%, or by 50%, or by 20%, depends, of course, on your house—and you. But please do your bit. You'll save on heat- | 24% 33% energy, too. CORPORATION
