Often these lakes or ponds are not tested and do nothave per- mits from local municipalities or state agencies. The Wilkes-Barre Regional Office of the Department of Environmental Resources is advising residents in the nine- county Northeast to play it safe and swim only in areas that are rou- tinely tested and regulated. Swimmers are risking exposure to a variety of organisms such as the anabaena algae that recently infested Harveys Lake in Luzerne County. Anabaena can cause skin irritations and severe intestinal dis- tress. This type of algae is only one of a multitude of organisms that occur naturally in freshwater ponds or lakes. Some are harmless, but others can cause problems similar to anabaena. It may be fund to find a secluded pond to swim in but the risk of illness is always there. Public pools, state and lovsl park facilities, and public and private beach areas offer safe summer recreation. They are sampled on a routine basis for swimmer safety. Don’t ruin summer fun by taking a chance. Play it safe and swim in regulated areas. Soccer camp is planned The second annual Colonel Soccer Camp, run at Wilkes College has been designed by director Phil Win- gert, to benefit youth players of all ages and skill levels.

Campers will be involved with all positions. Participants will play various soccer games including soccer-tennis and soccer-golf. Each day will be capped off by scrim- mage matches on the College fields.

Anil INNERSPRING MATTRESS SPRING AIR CASTLE (1 Only) 6 Styles Across from Bishop Hoban H.S. North Hampton §. Penna. Ave. - Bishop Hoban For soccer team By CHARLOT M. DENMON Staff Correspondent Lake-Lehman School District added another sport to its athletic department last week when the board appointed a soccer coach and an assistant, coach for the 1985-86 school year. | Raymond Dennis of Sweet Valley was appointed head coach at $1,140 per year and James Welby of Lehman was appeinted assistant coach at $895 per year. Dennis has been active in the Back Mountain Youth Soccer Asso- ciation for the past five years. He started as an assistant coach, then coached an under 14 team for a year and an under 16 team for two years. He served a year on the board of directors as publicity chairman. This Spring, he coached the Back Mountain Gold in the Wyoming Valley League. He is also a volunteer referee. The Lake-Lehman coach has two boys who play soccer, Aaron, a sophomore; and Brandon, a senior. Dennis is not certain how many boys will be out for the team, but he and his assistant are aiming for 25 to 35. They will know exactly how many following the physicals the first week in August. Dennis explained that, under the PIAA rules, soccer practice cannot be held before Aug. 12 and team play cannot begin until Aug. 29. He said it was too late for the team to get in the league this year, but they are arranging games with other teams for the season. They have already scheduled two games with Dallas, two with Abington Heights, one with Wyalusing and two with Benton. Dennis, who is an employee for Johnson Controls of Wilkes-Barre, just finished coaching the Back Mountain Gold team made up pri- marily of Lake-Lehman students. Eleven of these will be able to play on the high school varsity team this season. “I have coached most of these boys before,” said Dennis, ‘‘so we are familiar with one another. Both of my boys have been playing for five or six years.” Dennis said that a parents group organized about three years ago and has been trying to get soccer in the school. He said a lot of younger children enjoy the sport and will form a good nucleus for the future. “They enjoy playing and it comes natural for a child to kick a ball and run down the field after it,” said Dennis. Assistant Coach James Welby, who is a correctional officer at the Direct To You (No Seconds) BRAND NAMES (1 Only) ALSO 12 Styles Wilkes-Barre Blvd. 1): 14: RAY DENNIS State Correctional Institution Dallas, moved to the Lehman area from Scranton. He has played club soccer so has extensive playing experience and has been involved in the Back Mountain Youth Soccer Organization for the past four years as well as with Little League and basketball. Welby has coached both young children and older ones. A former PIAA official, he gave up officiating when he started devoting his time to coaching. He has two boys, Jamie, 12; and Brian, 8, both too young for the high school, but good material for the future. ‘‘We have a good group of younger kids coming up through the grades for the future teams,” said Welby. “I love this area and the kids at Lake-Lehman are great. They have a lot of heart. They may but the competition will know they are around. These kids are fighters and will give all they’ve got.” 21]A LL de MATTRESS SERTA KING KOIL TTAZXY ALL 150 SO. PENNA.
