Contest entrant
Don’t fret, photographers! The
Back Mountain Memorial Library
and The Dallas Post have extended
the deadline of their photo contest
for those of you who just couldn’t
make last Wednesday’s deadline.
_ Members of the contest commit-
tee feel that, because of the unsea-
sonly inclement weather our area
has been experiencing, it was neces-
sary to give local amateur photog-
raphers a second chance to get their
photo entries in.
Thus, the new deadline for this
local photo contest will be this
Friday, April 19.
There are four categories in this
contest, which is being sponsored in
conjunction with National Library
Week this month. Those categories
are adult color, adult black and
white, student color, and student
black and white.
The Dallas Post will be awarding
four $25 cash prizes - one for the
first place photograph in each cate-
gory. Also awarded will be ribbons
for second and third places as well
as honorable mention. All winning
photos will be published in The
Dallas Post.
The first place winners in each
category will then be submitted to
the American Library Association
to be judged in a national photogra-
phy contest. The local winners, by
being entered in the national con-
test, will becoming eligible for $7100
in prize money.
Entry blanks for the local contest
are available at The Dallas Post, 61
Gerald Avenue, Dallas; the Back
Mountain Memorial Library, Hunts-
ville Road, Dallas; and many Back
Mountain businesses.
Any amateur photographer
requiring additional information
concerning the contest is advised to
contact the Back Mountain Memo-
rial Library at 675-1182.

(Continued from page 1)
Dr. Ryan explained that no one
department will try to serve the five
institutions but local students
already cross register for courses
not available in their home schools.
An example is that when the King’s
chairman of the biology department
became ill several months ago,
some of the students enrolled in a
comparable biology class at Wilkes
College.
Dr. Breiseth pointed out that
when there was a diminishing
enrollment in the theatre program
this year, a joint theatre program
was offered by the colleges to keep
the course alive.
Dr. Ryan stated that from the late
1980’s to the 1990’s, there is an
expected decrease of 18 to 24 per-
cent in the present types of jobs,
and an even greater percentage of
decrease in the Northeast Region.
“We will probably see an nexpan-
sion of the 18 to 24-year olds into
higher education,” said Ryan. “It
will be a challenge to enable citi-
zens, youth and adults, to cope with
the realities of the late 1980’s and
1990’s. Society will be looking for a
different kind of student, one with
more information and varied educa-
tion. A person could have four or
five occupations in a lifetime. Indi-
vidually, our colleges cannot keep
pace with these changes but crea-
tively together, we hope we can do
something to help in addressing
these problems.”
The Council plans to meet
monthly until all problems are
resolved, then less frequently.
Dr. Breiseth explained that the
new Council is not the first time this
has been done. Such a council has
been formed in Lehigh Valley and is
functioning very successfully.
Another such organization has been
initiated in Connecticut Valley.
These are only two of such groups,
who have united in order to better
serve students, residents of the area
and the colleges.

Chairman of the Board Joseph
Jones submitted a proposal to
reward outstanding performances
by teachers, coaches and other
eductors by presenting them with a
monetary stipend. The board
approved Jones’ recommendation to
award John Miliauskas and Kather-
ine Gregory, $1,000. Miliauskas is
director of the prize-winning Lake-
Lehman High School Band and
Gregory received national recogni-
tion for her Earth Space Science
Program at Lake-Lehman.
‘Board members also announced
~ that the registration for the Effec-
tive Parenting Skills course spon-
sored by the district had opened.
The course is to begin Wednesday,
April 17 and continue for six
Wednesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. There
ow
is a registration of $10 to cover costs
of the course which is limited to 45
participants.
The Ross Township Elementary
School was approved for use by the
summer migrant program, includ-
ing transportation and food serv-
ices.
Approval was given for the
administration to advertise for a
math teacher for the 1985-86 school
year and the board approved the
following additions to the substitute
teachers list: Carol Thomas, Shav-
ertown, elementary certificate;
Mary Boiter, Tunkhannock, elemen-
tary certificate; Mary Mohr,
Dallas, elementary certificate; and
Janice Kiwak, of Sowyersville, art
certificate. ;
The board approved the request to
exonerate local tax collectors of
Harveys Lake Borough, Jackson,
Lake, Lehman, Noxen and Ross
Townships from collection of the
1984 per capita taxes for those
double-assessed, deceased and non-
residents. The tax collectors were
also exonerated from collecting the
1984 per capita taxes unpaid and
authorized the secretary of the
board to forward the names of those
unpaid to H.A. Berheimer Asso-
ciates, Bangor, Pa., the delinquent
tax collector.
In other finance requests, the
board members approved the 1985-
86 budget of the Luzerne Intermedi-
ate Unit 18, continuation of partici-
pation in the typewriter repair serv-
ice program in 1985-86 as offered by
the LIU 18 and to support the
positions and resolutions adopted at
the Pennsylvania Association of
School Business Officials at the
recent annual conference.

According to Dallas Borough
Police Chief Ed Lyons, the investi-
gation of the incident concerning the
assault of Susan Betts of Pittston
which occurred on April 4 in Dallas
Borough has been completed.
“The investigation summarily dis-
closed that there was insufficient
evidence to warrant criminal prose-
cution,” explained Lyons. “Dallss
Borough Police turned over all the
information in the matter to the
District Attorney’s office, and the
D.A. came to the same conclusion.
Ms. Betts was advised that she
could pursue a private complaint if
she wanted to,” he concluded.
Rep. Frank Coslett recently urged
eligible persons to file property tax
and rent rebate applications before
the June 30 deadline.
Those eligible are senior citizens
age 65 or over, widows and widow-
ers age 50 or over and permanently
disabled persons over age 18 who
meet the income guidelines. The
maximum eligible income is $11,999.
The maximum rebate is $500.
Coslett reminded citizens that the
1985 property tax and rent rebate
applications are based on 1984
income. Only one person per house-
hold may file. Those who receive a
rebate will automatically receive an
inflation dividend cash grant with-
out having to file another applica-
tion.
Individuals who file early are
more likely to receive rebate checks
in the Revenue Department’s first
mailing in early July, Coslett said.
Applications are available at Cos-
tHett’s office at 1265 Wyoming Ave.,
Forty Fort, Pa. The telephone
number is 288-3990.

all the way from Kindergarten
through 12th grade. I'd work to
build bridges between the differ-
ent stages of education with an
integrated curriculum. I'd work
closely with the Citizens’ Advis-
ory Committee which I consider
to be the voice of the community,
and with the media so that the
board’s role would be as open as
possible. Finally, with state and
federal aid being cut, the limited
resources that will be available
will have to be used very wisely,
and I would be careful with
every cent that’s spent.”

“With the country and educa-
tional systems in a period where
available money has turned to a
drizzle, the board can no longer
make choices between good and
bad programs. They now have to
choose between good and good,
and have recently done that with
the reinstatement of D.E.A.L.
and Drivers’ Education. With my
experience as a father, taxpayer
and local businessman I will pay
attention to financial details.
We'll be working with limited
resources and I want to insure
that our educational quality
stays as good as it is. Dallas had
the best TELLS results in the
area, and I want to continue to
be that good. We've made good
inroads in working well with our
excellent faculty and solving
morale problems. In general, I
want to see the best possible
education for the mney and that
won't be all hearts and flowers.
We need a level-headed group
who bases judgments on facts,
not friendships or partisan align-
ments.”
