cent we have,” the two furloughed

their fight against the recent Luzerne
County court ruling which favored the

duty in December, 1974 by the Dallas
Township Supervisors as an
“economy move.” Patrolman Appel
was kept on temporary basis while
Chief Carl Miers attended school. The
illness of Patrolman Les Tinelsey
necessitated the retaining of
Patrolman Appel on the five-man
force.
The matter was brought to court
last April and the ruling was in favor
of the supervisors. An appeal was
made by the attorney for the police,
Theodore L. Krohn, in October. The

was filed Feb. 3, 1976 in Harrisburg
and it will be heard in late March or
early April. Testimony will be given
at the hearing. Attorney Frank
