Seniors
(Continued from page 1)
continue to operate on the same
schedule as it is on at the present
time.
Sr. Frances Marie, assistant to
the Provincial of the Sisters of
Mercy, told The Dallas Post the
wing in which the Senior Citizens is
located was renovated recently for
a skilled care unit for the retired
Sisters, as a result of recommenda-
tions in a study which was done for
the entire Mercy Center. ;
This study showed the need for
more space for use by the residents
of Mercy Center. One hundred
twenty retired sisters are living in’
Mercy Center plus there are offices,
archives, studios and storage areas.
Sr. Frances also said the room in
which the senior citizens were meet-
ing is not the best for them, particu-
larly for the handicapped and the
very elderly. To get to the room,
they had to go through the kitchen
Siren
or go way around outside.
The Mercy Center officials tried
to find another space in the building
the Senior Citizens might use but
found it impossible.
“We loved having them here.
They are a real plus to our own
senior citizens, but it is no longer
possible because of space,” said Sr.
Frances. “If we applied for certifi-
cation under present conditions, the
health hazards because of going
through the kitchen.”
Back Mountain senior citizens that
the Bureau for the Aging is sympa-
thetic to the problem and will con-
tinue to search for a suitable place
for these persons to meet. He wel-
comes suggestions from residents of
the Back Mountain area who might
know of a place to accommodate the
local senior citizens.

man for GSA. “How much over, I
don’t know. We still have to check
the figures.”
That seems to be the whole prob-
lem in a nutshell. No one has been
bidding on the project, which now
may mean going back to the draw-
ing board to explore methods of
cutting costs.
“This is absolutely ridiculous,”
Representative Stanley Jarolin said.
“No one is bidding on the project
and we can’t figure out why. There
is so much unemployment here and
contractors just aren’t bidding. And
it’s nobody’s fault. It’s not the
| state’s, it’s not the legislator’s, it’s
the private enterprise system.”
The bids are advertised weekly in
the Pennsylvania Bulletin, but no
one has been responding. Although
projects excluding the siren, they
came in too high for the money
allocated for the plan. Now it
appears that modifications will have
to be made to make costs cheaper
without sacrificing the quality of the
original deal.
“Everybody has been pushing for
so long to get this project, and we

Lemmond, along with Jarolin,
Reps. Frank Coslett and George
Hasay, Atty. Blythe Evans, Walter
Zincavage, Supervisor of Jackson
Township; and a spokesman for
GSA have been invited to atten the
May 23 meeting at the State Correc-
tional Institute in Dallas.
