Suits donated
The Kingston Township Ambul-
ance Auxiliary recently donated a
mast trousers set-up to the Kingston
Township Ambulance Association.
The mast set-up is for trauma
victims who experience a decrease
in blood flow.
Upon direction of an emergency
room physician, the trousers are
placed on the victim and inflated.
This causes the blood to remain in
the vital areas of the victim. Opera-
tion of the trousers requires emer-
gency medical technicians who are
specially trained in its operation.
Kingston Township Ambulance
currently has eight people with this
intense training.

ing me have cited my trial experi-
ence, particularly my position as an
Assistant District Attorney, as a
distinguishing qualification for. the
judgeship’’, says Gill.

Hiring policy questioned
By Dallas Board
By PAMELA AARON
Staff Correspondent
Joseph O’Donnell, past president
of the Dallas School Board, stated
Monday evening at the regular
meeting of the board that the
board’s work sessions should be
made public.
O’Donnell’s statement followed a
claim made by the president of the
Citizen’s Advisory Committee, Ron
Moran, that the hiring of Fred
Templin, new superintendent of cur-
riculum, appeared to be decided
before the actual appointment.
Moran said that the new agenda
policy the Board adopted last month
was supposed to allow for the public
to be heard prior fo voting. There
was no motion made on O’Donnell’s
suggestion.
Four athletic appointments were
made by the board at Monday’s
meeting. Replacing Ronald Rybak,
who resigned last month as head
football coach’ at the Senior High
School, will be Ted Jackson, of 41
Belford Street, Shavertown with a
salary of $2,434.00. Both Donald
Hosey and Robert Mitkus were
appointed as assistant track
coaches for the junior high, at
$756.00 each. Finally, Mark Koval of
Edwardsville was appointed as the
senior high baseball coach at
$902.00.
In other business, the board voted
a $15,490 contribution to the Luzerne
Intermediate Unit 18 and approved
their 1985 budget.
Enrollment problems are begin-
ning to surface at West Side Voca-
tional Technical evening education
program, according to O’Donnell
and Board President Ernest Ash-
bridge.
O’Donnell asked for community
input addressed to Superintendent
Gerald Wycallis, to decide the
future of the program. No action
was taken Monday evening.
In other matters, O’Donnell sug-
gested that the district’s scholastic
achievements be recognized more
fully. His statement followed Dr.
Thomas Cypher’s monthly princi-
pals’ report. O’Donnell said concen-
tration on sports was “OK” but
attention should be payed to schol-
arly achievements. He suggested
these achievements be published in
the newspapers. Cyphers addressed
the issue, saying that the city
papers usually don’t print these
items. O’Donnell suggested the Citi-
zens’ Voice might do so:
O’Donnell questioned Cypher fur-
ther concerning the school counse-
lors role in the DEAL program (in
school suspension program). Cypher
said that in the junior high, students
are pulled out of the program to
work with counselors: and the senior
high students are required to meet
with the counselors the day after
their return to classes. Cypher
noted a total of 28 students in the
program from Feb. 11 to the
639-1264
