Grants totaling $872,056 have
been awarded by the Appal-
achian Regional Commission
(ARC) for four projects in
Northeastern Pennsylvania,
according to Ernest D. Preate,
president of the Economic
Developement ‘Council fo
Northeastern Pennsylvania
~ (EDCNP).
Friendship House in Scranton
has been awarded a grant of
$335,000 to assist in the con-
struction of a day treatment
‘center. The project will enable
nearly 40 additional patients to
receive services on an out-
patient basis. In addition, the
2 age group of patients served
will be increased from the ages
of six to fourteen to three to
eighteen years. The remainder,
with a total cost of $1,265,000, is
being funded by the National
Institute of Mental Health, the
Pennsylvania Department of
Community Affairs and local
sources.
An ARC grant of $248,000 has
been approved to assist in the
construction of a sewage treat-
ment plant and sewer lines for
the borough of Mount Pocono,
and will promote development
of the Mount Pocono area. The
total cost of the project is
$843,000, with the Environmen-
tal Protection Agency, and
state and local sources pro-
viding the “remainder of the
funds.
The Commission also award-
Inc. for a coal gasification pro-
ject to assist in developing a
method for coal gasification to
supply the Humbolt Industrial
Park in Hazleton. A gasification
study will be aimed at deter-
mining the feasibility of provid-
ing gas from anthracite coal to
serve the energy needs of the
businesses in the Park.
CAN-DO, the developer of the
park, is providing the balance
of the $67,500 required for the
study.
A new flavor has been added
to campus life at Wilkes College
with the completion of the new
Student Union Building, dubbed
very quickly by the students as
“sub.”
Now dormitory and com-
~ muter students will have the
opportunity to exchange ideas
outside of the classroom, unify-
ing the two groups, while the in-
coming freshmen can mingle
with the upperclassmen in a
congenial atmosphere.
Located next to the Com-
mons. the only combination
snack bar and game room on
campus, the idea of the Student
Union Building became a real-
ny after years of anticipation
with the conversion of Church
Hall to student use. Church
Hall. formerly the First Church
of Christ, Scientist, is one of the
nistorical South Franklin Street
landmarks, acquired by Wilkes
College in the middle 1960's.
Because Wilkes was unable 10
appropriate funds for the build-
img's preservation due to the
school’s extensive floor re-
covery costs, the students took
it upon themselves to transform
ihe lecture room where many of
them had spent long hours in
classes and examinations.
Under the leadership of Pete
Jadelis, last year's student
government president, and
recipient of the “Outstanding
Graduate of the Year Award’
tor the class of 1974, the old hall
1s still a reality on campus. The
College Misericordia will
_ offer five graduate courses this
fall, according to Sister Mar-
ianna Gildea, RSM, director of
graduate studies, in evening
and Saturday morning classes.

The Pocono Modified Champ-
ionship, originally scheduled
for Aug. 23-25, will be held as a
one-day event Aug. 25 and the
purse for the event, originally
set at $30,000, has been in-
creased to $40,000, according to
Dr. Joseph R. Mattioli, chief
executive officer of the vacation
area track. The $10,000 saved by
the shortened schedule will be
passed on to the drivers in the
form of the expanded purse.
Dr. Mattioli cited scheduling
conflicts with other area tracks
as the reason for shortening the
championship. ‘‘We received a
number of calls from short-
track operators complaining
that our running Friday and
Saturday would put a hardship
on their weekend shows. We can
understand the trouble a driver
would have trying to qualify
here and race at another track
the same day. So we decided to
change our original format to
accommodate our weekly pro-

these changes will make the

also insure the fans of seeing

Under the revised schedule,
the track will be open for reg-
istration and inspection Aug. 24,

Mattioli ‘stated, ‘‘it will be
possible for all the Friday and
Saturday promoters to get their
shows in and allow adequate
time for drivers to attend our
show.”
Mrs. Francis Dougherty, 179
W. Mount Airy Road, Trucks-
ville, told the Post that on July
25 a woman appeared at her
front door identifying herself as
Dorothy Gregory, wife of the
magistrate, Earl Gregory. The
woman, according to Mrs.
Dougherty, asked for informa-
tion concerning a neighborhood
disagreement which had taken
place about a year and a half
ago.
A petition at that time, signed
by 16 neighbors restricting the
actions of the Doughertys has
since been resolved. Mrs.
Dougherty answered several
questions asked by the woman,
and then gave her an article
which appeared in the Post at
the time of the incident. The
woman left the house and walk-
ed down the hill toward Pioneer
Avenue, Mrs. Dougherty relat-
ed.
The following day Mr. and
Mrs. Dougherty appeared at
District Magistrate Gregory’s
office asking why Mrs. Gregory
visited the Dougherty home and
what was in the offing. Magis-
trate Gregory did not know any-
thing about the visit and was
certain it was not his wife. The
not fit Mrs. Gregory and his
wife’s name is Patricia.
Mr. and Mrs. Dougherty then
called the Kingston Township
Police Department and Chief
Paul Sabol interviewed them at

ed that the matter is presently
under investigation. He also
said that no complaints had
been lodged recently by either
side in the long neighborhood
spat.
One neighbor, who asked that
her name not be used, stated
that things have been very quiet
in the area for a long time and
she could not understand why
anyone would want to start
things up again. As far as she
was concerned the Dagshertys
were leaving the #ighbors
alone and vice versa.
Mrs. Gregory was amazed
that anyone wou'd want to im-

she did: not even know the
Dougherty couple.
