C
Reverend George A. Jef-
frey, pastor, Our Lady of
Victory Church, Harveys
Lake, recently announced
plans for the construction
of a new parish commu-
nity center including a rec
tory and renovations to the
present church. The $500,
000 expansion program
which is scheduled to
begin in late summer or
early fall will be partially
funded by the proceeds
realized from a capital
fund drive launched in the
parish this weekend with a
minimum goal of $250,000.
The parish center is to
be constructed on land
located next to the present
church which will permit
direct access to that facil-
ity when the building is
completed.
an unobstructed view of
the sanctuary. This same
area can be cordoned off
during the winfer months
to serve as a daily Mass
chapel resulting in consi-
derable energy, savings.
Other features incorpo-
rated in this uniquely
designed bi-ievel center
include a quiet room, child
care room, reconciliation
room; religious education
classrooms and staff
offices, meeting room, a
center for social activities,
youth ministry staff office
and a rectory.
Renovations to the 60-
year-old church -are to
include installation of new
roof covering, new church
kneelers, new church car-
peting, releading of the
stained glass windows and
installation of lexan storm
windows as well as a new
bell and carillon.
Founded as a mission
church of St. Ignatius
Parish, Kingston, in 1923,
Our Lady of Victory was
designated a parish by
Bishop J. Carroll McCor-
mick on September 3, 1969.
Since then, the parish has
experienced a steady
growth in the number of
year-round families until
today there are 350 fami-
lies in the parish. Accerd-
ing to Father Jeffrey, this
growth and the need to
provide for net only the
present, but the future,
necessitates the expansion
program.
The fund drive will be
conducted by teams of vol-
unteer workers from the
parish during the next two
months. During this
period, each parishioner
will be personally visited
by workers and asked to
consider a pledge of sup-
port to the program.
Members of the Dallas
Lions and Lioness Clubs
entered a float in the state
Lions convention parade
held recently in Wilkes-
Barre. The theme for the
float was the “Wizard of
0z”-and featured charac-
ters from the famous book-
made-movie.
The, Wizard ‘was por-
frayed by John Delvechio;
Dorothy, complete with
red shoes and puppy dog
was Grace McCue; the
brave lion was none other
than the newest lion, Tom
Bagley and the Tin Man
was superbly portrayed by
Carol - that’s right - Carol
Tabor.
The scarecrow, straw
and all, was Frank Roll-
man and, in these witches
outfits, were Mariene Roll-
man and Ruth Fino.
Although none will admit
to “type casting’’ it should
be noted that Lioness Roll-
man was the Wicked Witch
of the West while Lioness
Fino was the lovely good
witch who touched ever
yong with her magic wand
and brought love and hap-
piness to all.
The float committee was
chaired by Lion Bill
“Stump’’ Tabor = with
assistance from the cast
members and from Lions
Drew Fitch, Joe Harring-
ton, Russ Stone and Paul
McCue. Helping with the
decorations were Sue
Bagley, Dote Fitch, Flor-
ence Harrington and Ellen
Stone.
Lions McCue and Tabor
had originally been cast as
“trees” for the float but
both backed out when the
prosepct of leg-hiking dogs
along the parade route
was mentioned.
Helping out with the unit
formation at the parade
were Lions Balutis, Bly
and Kleinhans. Float driv-
ers were D.J. Fitch with
Dean Fitch at shotgun.
Dave Fitch drove the
pickup truck with the
Lions in tow and Joe Sitar
provided his vintage Ford
in which the ladies were
escorted.
