+ ARNOLD GARINGER Three members of the Lake- Lehman School Board have been honored by the Pennsylvania School Boards Association as long-term school directors. Over 1,000 school board members, ranging in years of service from 10 years to over 40 years, were recog- nized in a special booklet, entitled “Honor Roll of School Board Serv- ice” and also received certificates as a PSBA annual conference held recently in Pittsburgh. R. Arnold Garinger, a member of the Lake-Lehman School Board, received a certificate for 13 years of service while Gilbert D. Tough and Tree (Continued from page 1) Carol Chapple, who lives on Glen- view Avenue in Shavertown, has enjoyed a real Christmas tree since childhood. “To have a large real Christmas tree has been a tradition since I was a little girl,” she said. ‘A real tree smells like Christmas and makes Christmas seem very real to me.” Children, too, have definite ideas j about a real tree versus an artificial tree. Jeremy Williams, 81%, of Over- brook Road, Dallas, likes the smell of a real Christmas tree while Lisa Davenport, 11, of Eleanore Street, Shavertown, not only likes the pine fragrance, but enjoys going out and looking for a tree to cut down. z “A real tree makes the living- room look a little different, a little bit prettier,” said Lisa. GILBERT TOUGH Native Textiles Co. employees honored Dallas plant employees of Native Textiles and their guests, attended the annual Christmas party held recently. Approximately 150 people were present for a buffet dinner at the Irem Temple Country Club. Remarkes were given by Thomas J. Neyhard, plant manager; Bill Donald J. Jones both received certi- fictes for 10 years of service. According to PSBA president Thoams G. Macarro, these individu- als put in, on the average, about 2% working days per month - 30 days or a full month in a year - committed to-non-paid, volunteer service as a school director. Dallas Post/Dott Lehman (Continued from page 1) board members have 30 days from Dec. 6 to fill the vacnacy, but to date cannot agree. The 30-day period will end on Jan. 5 and, with the holiday season approaching, it is questionable whether or not many of the directors will be willing to give much more of their time on what seems to be a ‘‘stalemate situation”. “Ten persons applied for the vacancy and all of them qualified as far as I am concerned,” said Jones. “I have nothing against Marchaki- Paculavich, assistant plant man- ager; Ronald Clemow, present, Local 1824, ACTWU; John Namey, secretary treasurer-business agents, Local 401, Teamsters; John Vene- ski, business agent, Local 401, “Although we interviewed all of the candidates I don’t believe the young man, but I knew we would before putting a motion on the floor not get a fifth vote for any one of _at the meeting.

Dallas (Continued from page 1) new member. If it cannot do so within that time period which expires Jan. 4, the Luzerne County Court will make the appointment. The unprecedented vacancy came about when Johnny George cap- tured both a two-year seat and a four-year seat and elected to serve the four-year term. Following ‘the Dec. 5 swearing-in of the new directors, the board advertised for voluntary candidates from the community. A total of seven applications were received and reviewed by the board in the hours prior’ to their vote on Moyer and Bolton. The other candi- dates, all of whom received no votes, were John Farkas, Reese Finn, Barbara Mead, Richard Morgan and John Tinner. Morgan and Finn had both been defeated candidates for the Dallas School Board in the primaries with Morgan being the second top vote- getter for the two year post that is now up for grabs. Speculation in the community had been that Morgan was a shoe in for the appointment because he did run for the post and because he lives in Trucksville. Legally, there are no residency requirements by town since school SEAFOOD Lobster Tail board directors residing anywhere within the district are now elected ‘at large.” However, there has long been an unwritten law regarding equal representation and, under this ‘‘gentleman’s agreement’ the com- position of the nine-man school board is three from Dallas Town- ship, three from Kingston Township, from Franklin Township. The eight men presently seated on the school board reflect this same community representation with the exception that there are now only two ‘members living in Kingston had been that a woman might be a logical appointment since the school board is without female representa- tion for the first time in 12 years. This appointment will apparently be made on the basis of the can- diates’ application only, rather than on any of these considerations or on an interview. In the past, it had always been standard practice for the school board to personally inter- view each candidate, but no inter- views were held prior to this vote and to date none have been sched- uled before the next vote. | Swoyersville 287-2111 Lb. $9.99 c= ® € © © © ® 2 3 & RD 9 5 POPPE J nH Deck the halls with boughs of holly and decorate your holiday tables with good tasting Carvel Ice Cream cakes and frozen desserts.
