“We moved to this area because
of the excellent reputation of the
Lake-Lehman School system. I
believe the community unrest is
because the board has had difficulty
in meshing personalities and
because of this can’t seem to agree.
The members are all fine people but
I. belive there should be a change in
order to avoid the personality diffi-
culties.”

These include making an assess-

training session, explaining to each
neighbor how to actively observe
and accurately report suspicious
activities, "hand out decals, and
other assorted duties.
It’s important to note that the

encourages active participation in
the program.
~The individual in each home is the
_ key. Through observation - looking
and listening, then reporting any-
thing suspicious to the police,” con-
cerned citizens can cut down the
incidence of crime in their neighbor-
hoods. Through the Neighborhood
Crime Watch Program, persons
learn how. to ‘be good observers.
Neighbors share creime prevention
tips. They can exchange home and
work: telephone numbers and infor-
mation about daily routines or
planned vacations.
According to Bradshaw, Neigh-
borhood Crime Watches work.
“In my neighborhood, seven bur-
laries occurred in a 10-day period,”
Bradshaw’ said. “One year after we
began our crime watch, there were
four attempted burglaries reported
during the year. A Neighborhood
Crime Watch won’t stop crime,” he
says, “but it will move it to another
area - one where no crime watch
has been organized!”
If you are interested in organizing
a crime watch or would like more
information, please call Elmer
Bradshaw at 825-2218, your local
police department or The Dallas
Post.

When asked if he recalled the
conversation with ‘Mr. Bradshaw,
Chief Lyons stated that it had been
a very brief discussion and that he
didn’t remember. what was said.
According to Lyons, “Officer Jack
Fowler was placed in charge- of
initiating the crime watch. He got
the information and discussed it
with the Weisses. We offered to let
them use the Borough building for
their meetings. It was up to the
Weisses to contact ‘neighbors and
set a date for a crime watch meet-
ing. Apparently, they never did. Mr.
~ Weiss himself said he was too busy.
It’s right there in the paper.” Chief
Lyons then concluded, “I have no
further comment until I discuss this
with Jack Fowler.”
why no one ever. got back to me; in
fact, I was surprised no one did, It
was my impression that the Weisses
were going to contact neighbors, set
a date, then let Mr. Fowler know.
Fowler was then going to get in
touch with me and let me know
what date had been chosen. That
was the last I had heard. The
Neighborhood Crime Watch Asso-
ciation is still very willing to help
and will if we are asked, but I’m not
going to push myself on anyone.”

Production
scheduled
‘Little Red Riding Hood’ is the
20th annual production of the annual
Children’s Theatre presented by the
Misericordia Players.
A new upbeat version of the famil-
iar folk tale by the Brothers Grim
was adopted by director Walter C.J.
Andersen, associate professor at
Misericordia.
“The original fairy tales are
rather gruewsome,” said Andersen.
“So I rewrite the stories to make
them a combination of fun and
fantasy.”
In Andersen’s version, Little Red
is wondering why life isn’t more
exciting when Granny shows up in
search of the Wolf, who has stolen
her 10-speed bicycle. Granny, a
karate expert who listens to Michael
jackson, has no fear of the Big Bad
Wolf.
The wolf, who is Harvard edu-
cated having written his thesis on
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, is a
most unusual creature. He enjoys
being evil but loves little children
(on whole wheat toast).
When Granny becomes ill, Little
Red sets out through the woods to
visit her. On the way she encounters
a variety of forest creatures: Harry
Bear, Bunny Rabbit, Cissy Chip-
munk, Franny Fieldmouse, Sammy
Skunk and of course, the Big Bad
Wolf!
Performances continue on April
26 at 7:30 p.m. and April 27 and 28
at 2 p.m. in Walsh Auditorium on
the Dallas campus. Tickets are $2.50
for adults and $2 for the children.
Reservations can be made by call-
ing 675-2181, ext. 214 or 675-0828.
