Biomedical Equipment Tech- nology (BMET), a new career in the health field, is emerging in response to the need for tech- nicians who can handle the in- stallation, operation, repair, maintenance and calibration of electronic equipment vital to diagnosis and treatment. And, according to surveys conducted by the Technical Education Research Council of Cambridge, Mass., manpower studies estimate a yearly need for more than 1300 BMET’s with the need for both men and wom- en to increase as health care facilities become more com- plex. Local interest in a proposed new educational career op- portunity in this vital new field is currently being surveyed by the Wilkes-Barre Campus of the Pennsylvania State University, George W. Bierly, local campus director has announced. Mr. Bierly said, “We are in the process of sending letters to hospitals, health and medical groups, and prospective students who might have an in- terest in a career opportunity in this new area. I feel confident the response to our survey will be favorable both in the area in- terest and student applications. If the anticipated preliminary funding is granted next month, Penn State’s Wilkes-Barre Campus will accept a group of students in September in the proposed two-year associate de- gree program of Biomedical Equipment Technology.” Although no previous experi- ence is required in this new career field for admission to the program, Mr. Bierly stated it should be a most attractive field for veterans with medical and electronic experience and women who at this time con- stitute the majority of health field personnel. Further information on this new career opportunity may be Wilkes-Barre Campus. Brian Corbett, 15 Makes Hole-in-one Brian Corbett, 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Corbett, Clearview Avenue, Trucksville, joined the ranks of golfers who enjoy the thrill of achieving a hole-in-one.

Witnessing the young Dallas High School student's ac- complishment © were Joe Thomas, Bill Thomas, John Roushey, and Joe Maniskas. Ten of Dallas Senior High School cheerleaders recently attended an International Cheerleading Foundation Camp at Seton Hall University in New Jersey, where they learned new cheers, charts, and routines. Each day the girls were eval- uated on the cheers and routines they had learned that day. The Dallas squad was one of approximately 15 squads at- tending the camp, and the girls met other groups from Manville and Long Beach Island, N.J. The Dallas squad won four blue ribbons for their excellent presentation of cheers and on the final day competition was hald at 9 a.m. The Dallas girls were awarded a blue ribbon and the coveted first place grand champion trophy. During the final day of camp, the girls donated money to the Multiple Sclerosis fund. It was money the cheerleaders had earned throughout the summer months to help finance their camp stay. Susan Miller, who had planned to attend with the others, was unable to do so due to the fact that while traveling in Europe she and her parents were detained in Turkey for three weeks because of the re- cent crisis. Twenty-two regulars and two alternates make up the Dallas Senior High School squad whieh 15 under the direction of Sally Harter, French .teacher, and Donna Topolewski, assistant. Sophomores, juniors and sen- iors are eligible. Currently the group includes Mary Klug, Joann Sawyer, Linda Scalisi, Pamela Selingo, Terri Brennan, Leslie Burk- hart, Kim Druckenmiller, Mary Frances Sherman, Kathy Walsh, Lori Miller, Jennifer Menzel, Susan Miller, Kate Godwin, Donna Heidel, Katie Gray, Anne Gray, Candy Carlson, Brenda Bloomer, Barb Tirpak, Cindy Purvin. The Wyoming Seminary Upper School has vastly expan- ded its offerings in religion for the 1974-75 school year.
