boys or girls who need an older
brother of sister figure. They
need someone to take them for
a ride, to their home, to a
movie, or to other such events.
“There are more than 200
boys and a smaller number of
girls in Lackawanna and Luz-
erne Counties who need some-
one to fill the void in their
lives,” Johannes said. “We have
a great shortage of male volun-
teers.”
The television personality
asked the students to give seri-
ous consideration to taking
some time with a little brother
or little sister. He explained the
officials of the Big Brother
Organization match the children
with volunteers so the realiza-
tionship can be meaningful to
both.
Ms. Olaviany explained that
the role of a Big Brother or Big
Sister is not a social activitiy,
but rather a friend-to-friend
activity. Having a Big Brother
could, quite possibly, mean that
many of these one-parent chil-
dren would need no counseling,
no getting into trouble and
would get something from life.
As Earl Monk, who spends a
day each week with his Little
Brother and sometimes longer
depending on what the two plan
to do, the program is very
worthwhile.
Monk advises those students
who are able to do so to get
involved as soon as possible.
According to Earl, the rewards
are indescribable.
Drama
(Continued from page 11)
skits and monologues in various
churches in the area. Their first
full length play was the ‘‘Birth-
day Party,” followed the next
year by a two-hour play entitled
“Tinker.”
Many of the troupe members
have been with the group since
its beginning while others have
joined in the past two or three
years and the youngest have
become members just this year.
The group is able to present its
first full-length Christmas pag-
eant this year because its mem-
bership has escalated.
Mrs. Madeira, who studied
drama while in collegg in Okla-
homa, has been presenting
plays for the past 23 years. She
enjoys directing because she
finds it an effective method of
putting out the message of
Jesus Christ. She is also the
mother of the “Madeira Gospel
Singers’’ known throughout the
area.
The main characters in this
year’s presentation of ‘“‘the Best
Christmas Pageant Ever’ are
the mother and father, Mr. and
Mrs. Bradley, played by Darl
Franklin and Timothy Madeira;
the daughter, Beth, played by
Denise Madeira; and the son,
Charlie, played by Todd Treat.
The “nasty” kids, the Herdman
children, will be portrayed by
six younger members of the
troupe.
Proceeds from the pageant
will benefit the Prison Ministry
of Luzerne County, WGRN, the
Christian Radio Station and cer-
tain missionaries of the New
Life Community Church.

The public is invited to the
play and, although no admission
will be charged, a donation will
be taken at the conclusion of the
play.

every Friday night. They also
have scheduled performances at
the Kingston American Legion
on December 20 and at the Hex
Lounge on Kidder Street,
Wilkes-Barre, on December 27.
When the Kowalskis first
joined the local music scene,
Barb, then Barbara Mislak of
Kingston, played the drums and
guitar while Rick also played
the guitar. The couple made a
Nashville recording including
“How Come I Have Two Dad-
dies” and “Before I Met You.”
In 1976, they were awarded with
the Country Music Association
Award for the Best Duet.
The couple now has two sons,
Robert, who plays the guitar
and plans to join his parents in
the business next year, and
Joseph, who, surprisingly, is not
interested in music.
About ending their retirement,
Barb says, ‘“We played just
about every place in the Valley
as ‘The Country Sweethearts.’
And, it’s great to be back and
meet some of our old friends
who used to come to listen to us
play.
“We want all our friends and
neighbors to come and hear
us,” she added, excited about
returning to the music scene.
“We enjoy playing the kind of
music they like and try to play
all requests.”
