‘“Welcome to Roll-Away
Family Skating Rink and Enter-
tainment Center.” That is the
new sign hanging on the wall of
the skating rink once owned by
the late Tony Bonomo.
Nick Tsaioles, owner of Mr.
Donut Shoppes, located in Kings-
ton; Sans Souci Highway, Hano-
ver Township; Valmont Park-
way, West Hazleton; and
Memorial Highway, Dallas, pur-
chased the roller rink on May 15
of this yea. He recently opened it
to the public.
He immediately began renova-
tions and, to date, has installed
new carpeting, linoleum, rows of
booths, and made many other
changes. Next on his list of
priorities is re-painting the
inside. 5
Open every day from 6 to 10
p.m., Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 10
p.m., Sundays, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.,
Tsaioles also caters to private
parties, youth groups, school
groups and birthday parties. He
is always at the rink when it is
open and information may be
obtained by calling him at 675-
4844.
Monday is ‘‘Oldtimers N)ght”
at the Roll-Away, a night for all
adults over the age of 18. Satur-
day during the day is for chil-
dren and a $2.00 admission fee
allows them to skate for as long
as they desire. Thursdays, the
‘doors are open to housewives
from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The rink is well-lighted inside
and out; every child who comes
in must stay in until parents or
guardian come to pick them up.
There is adult supervision and on
busy nights, outside security.
There will be no fear of damage
to cars or other rowdiness.
There are plenty of booths for
persons who want to have a
snack and plenty of seating for
adults who want to watch their
young people skate. The rest-
rooms are supervised as well and
proper behavior must be
observed on the skating floor.
Roughness, pushing or careless-
ness will not be tolerated.
Tsaioles wants people to be
assured of a good time when they
come to Roll-Away. Objectiona-
ble persons will be refused
admission and persons in the
rink must conduct themselves as
ladies and gentlemen.
Nick Tsaioles is more than
willing to discuss various
arrangements with community
groups. It is his hope to make the
place available to school classes,
church youth groups and commu-
nity youth organiztions at a cost
they can afford.
He offers a “Birthday Special”
for children observing their
birthday. If you have a child,
who wants a birthday skating
party for $25, Nick Tsaioles will
let you include as many children
as’ you would like. This price

includes admission and skates.
Bring your own birthday cake.
At the rink’s snack bar, hot dogs,
pretzels, doughnuts, chips, soda
‘and other snack items may be
purchased.
Long in business in his Mr.
Donut Shoppes, this is Nick

Tsaioles’ first experience in a
recreation center, but he wants
to make it the center of enjoy-
ment for adults and children — a
center ‘For Family Together-

Key’ because Nick Tsaioles
cares.

Did you ever see a football player
grab'a long pass from two defend-
ers, run 20 yards for a touchdown,
then come off the field and light up
a cigarette?
Probably not. And you are not
likely to, either. That’s because
athletes cannot afford to smoke, and
they know it. The American Heart
Association says the two main com-
ponents of cigarettes, nicotine and
carbon monoxide, inhibit the effi-
cient operation of the heart.
Nicotine makes the heart beat
faster, forcing the heart to work
harder and demand more oxygen,
while carbon monoxide in the lungs
cuts down the oxygen available to
the heart and bloodstream. It's a
no-win situation, and athletes like to
win. It’s no wonder that they
usually do not smoke.
The wonder is that anyone smokes
in view of the overwhelming statis-
tics. Despite the warnings of the
Surgeon General of the U.S. Public
Health Service as early as 1964 that
cigarette smoking is dangerous to
one’s health smoking continues to
be a factor in about 350,000 deaths
each year. Further, since 1964, the
American public has incurred more
than $930 billion in cigarette-induced
medical costs, according to report
in 1984 by the American Council on
Science and Health.
The report states that these costs-
-to non-smokers as well as to smok-
ers—-are born: 1) through tax-sup-
ported public welfare programs pro-
viding benefits to those disabled by
smoking-related disease and their
survivors; 2) through health and life
insurance companies which charge
equal premiums to smokers and
non-smokers, even though smokers
have a much higher risk of serious
illness and premature death; and 3)
through increased prices in con-
sumer goods as a result of smokers’
high rate of absenteeism from work.
Why then do people smoke? Many
people strt to smoke when they are
teenagers because of peer pressure
from friends or because their par-
brothers and sisters who smoke are
three times more likely to smoke
than their counterparts.
Some people smoke because they
believe the message of the cigarette
companies. Over$800 million is
spent’ annually in advertising to
convince the American public that
smoking is desirable, if not benefi-
cial. One brand makes a person
independent, spirited and free;
another brand guarantees status;
and merely “lighting up” another is
macho, debonair or sexy.
