We had 34 of a tank which was enough to return home with but we hesitated because of possible traffic tie-ups. (Lincoln Tunnel alone could give you 250 units of stress.) Needless to say, when we finally returned home I had already missed the Post’s deadline by four days and since I don’t want to push my luck - I played DEAD. But I'm back ready to fill you in on ‘How I got a black and blue on my you-know-what.”” Suzie pushed me into Ted who trying to keep his balance, pushed me into Louis who had his hands full with a large heavy box that knocked me into the basement wall. I felt like a ping pong ball. And that’s how I received my mark of Zorro. Happy to report that Shirley Osborne is recuperating nicely at Geissinger Medical Center where she un- derwent surgery. Charlie and Chuck Batka recently returned from a fishing trip to Canada. “Hey Chester, Mike and Marie Annetta traveled to New Jersey last weekend and this weekend New Jersey p came to visit them.” (Chester has been teasing Mike about not making this column lately, sno now I’m fixing The Rittles, Clem, Ellen and annette have returned from their week in New York where they visited family and friends. ; Returning from Canada were the Hessions who visited family near Ontario. The Cacozzas, Jack and Marlene, the Sgarletts, Joe and Eileen traveled to Allentown this weekend to attend a business seminar. If I know this crowd there was more fun than business going on. Belated birthday greetings to little Kelly Cleary who was five years old, June 21, Kim Sorber, her 12 birthday, June 21, Marge Angelicola, June 23 and Gene Mohen, presently living in Florida, June 23. Also missed Jack Farrell's birthday, June 23 and his and Shirley’s wedding anniversary. Congratulations. Anniversary greetings to Steve and Irene Morenko who honored a wedding anniversary (I think it was their 29th), Gus and Estelle Shuleski, their 34th and Leo and Rose Mohen, 39th wedding anniversary. Best wishes to you all. Vin and I hosted a dinner party Saturday evening for three very special to us couples, Newt and Barbara Brown, Steve and Elaine Stroney and Don and Cora Lee Watson. What a delightful evening. The conversation ran from ‘How did you concoct the Italian Cheeseball? to ‘When you should and when you should not use the expression ‘should’. If you're confused - move over. It was so much fun we were sorry to see the couples leave, but the group plans to join the Browns next week in their summer home in Lake Wallenpaupack. Maybe then I'll find out if I ‘should’ or ‘should not’.

But there may not be too much that the two British youngsters need to be introduced to, according to their parents. “We have bar- becues,” says Margery Davies. ‘We call them ‘American suppers’ or ‘sundowners.’’”’ Continues Tudor, “Our lifestyle isn’t so dif- ferent from yours.” He’s a member of the officers’ mess at a large RAF base back home and associates with visiting American airmen frequently. The couple smiles a bit when the question of ‘‘higher” American prices comes up. ‘Prices are pretty much the same,” says Tudor. ‘‘And our gasoline is now $2 a gallon. The basic economics are not a great deal different.” Every once in a while, though, he returns to the subject of police work. As he explains it, under the British system a police officer is a professional, pretty much the social equivalent of a doctor or lawyer. the American belief that police work should be a function of in- dividual communities, however small. He cites with interest a recent newspaper ad in which Harveys Lake Borough announces vacancies for two patrolmen and a chief. The idea of being responsible to a borough council rather than to a national headquarters is strange to him. But it’s obvious that the tall, blond man with the sunburn basically likes the United States. He, his wife, and his hosts have gone bicycling around the lake, and they're going to be visiting Washington, D.C. and Lake Jean. Meryl Davis, who was born in Wales herself and who has lived here for 20 years, can’t get over the idea of Americans who seldom if what scenic wonders abound just a few miles from home. “Your bugs here are rather PAGE SEVEN quickly adds that he’s exaggerating and that in truth the Back Mountain is a lot like Wales in terms of topography and scenery. . Meryl adds that she and her brother should feel quite at home in the area because so many Wyoming Valley residents have Welsh blood or are from Wales. She tells of meeting some years ago an 80-year- old woman in the Heights section of Wilkes-Barre who was from their old hometown of ‘‘Rhosllaner- chrugog,” which they call simply “Rhos.” : But however much they enjoy talking about life back in Wales and comparing it to what they’ve found here, Tudor and Margery Davies have some ‘getting ready’’ to do. They're going to be traveling off and on before the vacation ends in a few weeks. “We waited a long time to make this trip,” says Margery. ‘“‘Now the children are old enough to ap- preciate what they see.” Shavertown Taxpayers’ Association, formed recently, met to organize and discuss the upcoming Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission hear- ing scheduled for July 13 at City Hall in Wilkes- Barre at 10 a.m. Attorney Al Flora was retained by the tax- payers’ association to represent customers of Shavertown Water Company.
