New budget
Dallas Borough Council adopted a
1984 budget on Dec. 20 that calls for
no increases in taxes or spending.
The budget calls for $300,000 in
both revenue and spending, the
same as in 1983. Taxes will stay at
the current rate of nine mills.
a Garren charged
A Dallas man was ordered Dec. 19
to stand trial on charges of indecent
assault and corruption of a minor
by District Justice Leonard D.
Harvey.
Henry sGarren, Sr., 38, of RD 4,
Dallas, appeared at a preliminary
hearing at which Harvey found
enough evidence to warrant a trial.
A charge of incest against Garren
was dropped.
A 16-year-old girl, who was 13
when the alleged incidents began,
was the only witness to testify
against Garren. The girl claimed
the first incident occurred in Octo-
ber, 1981, at a home on Route 19 in
Lake Township and continued
through July 1983 at a mobile home
where she lived.
Garren is free on $15,000 bail.
Budget adopted
A 1984 budget, which calls for
$660,000 in revenue and spending
and no increase in the current
property tax of six mills, was
adopted Dec. 20 by the Dallas Town-
ship Board of Supervisors.
In other business, the supervisors
passed a resolution paying tribute to
James Aikman, a planning commis-
sion member, who passed away
recentlv.
Council agrees
The Harveys Lake Borough Coun-
cil passed its 1984 budget Dec. 20.
The new budget calls for a $20,000
decrease in spending and no change
in the current property tax rate of
21.5 mills.
While the budget calls for cuts of
$24,000 in highway spending, $1,785
less for general expenses and $1,235
less for health and sanitation,
spending is expected to be $261,509,
compared to $281,703 in 1983.
The 1984 budget also calls for
spending $4,880 more for police pro-
tection and $900 more in contribu-
tions to civic groups.
Council also voted to accept the
resignation of Albert Gulitus, a
member of the Harveys Lake
Municipal Authority. Gulitus, after
serving 10 years on the authority,
resigned for family and personal
reasons.
Request denied
The Kingston Township Board of
Supervisors denied a request from
Dale & Dale to subdivide a property
on Harford Avenue, Shavertown.
The contractors had wanted the
change made so they could build
three homes on the property.
The supervisors denied the
request on Dec. 14 because the
property is not large enough to meet
township regulations for subdivi-
sion.
The supervisors also awarded a
contract to Newell Fuel Service Inc.
of Trucksville to supply fuel oil to
the township and to Agway Petro-
leum Corp. of Suscon to provide
gasoline to the township.
The following area couples have
announced births during the past

Luzerne County senior citizens
received the fourth largest amount
of benefits from the Pennsylvania
State Lottery during the 1982-83
fiscal year, according to the
recently published Pennsylvania
Lottery’s 1982-83 Annual Report.
Philadelphia topped the list of
benefits with its senior citizens
receiving $28,538,476. Allegheny
County followed with $22,434,334 in
senior benefits while Delaware
County placed third as its seniors
reeived $6,426,333. Luzerne County
senior citizens received $5,588,877.
Total senior citizens program ben-
efits paid during the fiscal year was
$212,623,826. A summary of those
benefits includes: rent rebates -
$37,291,210;
$64,434,691; inflation dividends, $39,-
969,925; funds allocated through the
Department of Aging, $22,700,000;
and free transit, $48,228,000.
Since the lottery was created in
1971, a mandate from the Pennsyl-
vania General Assembly stipulated
that the primary beneficiaries of
lottery proceeds should be senior
citizens. Certain widows and widow-
ers over age 50 and permanently
disabled persons also receive bene-
fits.
In the fiscal year 1982-83, $355.4
million in lottery profits or 40.1
percent of gross income was pro-
vided to meet that mandate. None
of the funding came from Pennsyl-
vania tax dollars.
