DENMON Staff Writer Rain did not halt the ground- breaking ceremonies Friday for the Penn State Wilkes-Barre $3.5 mil- lion multi-purpose physical edu- cation building to be constructed on the Lehman campus. Area officials, state legislators and other dignitaries joined with Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus representatives for the event. Dr. James H. Ryan, campus chief executive officer, standing under a large tent adjacent to the area where the new building will be constructed, told the assembly that the gymnasium is a building looked forward to for the past 20 years, since the campus was moved from the old Guthrie School in Wilkes-Barre to Lehman. He said that Penn State has been using area high school gyms or placing emphasis on outdoor sports to meet the physical education require- ments, and the new facility to be completed in approximately 15 months will make a positive differ- ence to the local campus students. Ryan paid tribute to Fred Ciletti, retired director of the university government of affairs office, who was in the audience. Ryan said it was Ciletti who first started work- ing to have a gymnasium con- structed on the Lehman campus. The new building was designed by Wallace and Watson Associates of Allentown and includes main and auxiliary gymnasiums, class- rooms, racquetball courts, locker rooms, offices and rooms for weight training, coaches, trainers and a nurse. To those interested in whether or not the building would include a swimming pool, Ryan replied that the building is designed to accom- modate a pool, but that it would be added sometime in the future. John R. Murphy, Penn State Wilkes-Barre director of student programs and services, who headed the gymnasium planning commit- tee, commented that the fitness/ wellness center will be directed by a faculty member with a PhD. in exercise physiology and certified by theAmerican College of Sports Medicine. He said there is great potential for community service, working in consultation with local medical people, assessing life styles, prescribing individual fit- ness programs and also working with local business and industry on wellness programs. Penn State breaks ground for gym Senator Charles Lemmond, Jr., a member of Penn State Wilkes- Barre Advisory Board, expressed his appreciation on behalf of the entire Back Moutnain community for the addition of the physical education building which will be made available to the public. Dr. Scott Kretchmer of the Main Campus brought greetings on behalf of the university president and E.J. Shaffer, president of the Student Government Association, said he and other students believe the new gym represents a great step forward for the school and for its community relations. “Its addi- tion to the school will help improve its undergraduate status as a whole,” Shaffer commented. Taking part in the groundbreak- ing ceremony was state Secretary Janetta, Sen. Lemmond, Rep. Thomas Tigure, Mrs. Joan Diana, president of faculty, director of student programs and services. John R. Murphy, Dr. Ryan, Dr. Kretchmer, William Watson, Leo Kuciewicz, representing Sen.

Joseph Salla, vice chairman of the Commission, reported on a meeting he attended during the day Thursday, May 4. he stated that DER is planning a training program for small companies. He also stated that it was reported that 12 PennVEST loans had been approved and closed and that 100 applications were pending and officials estimate that it will take at least one year after applying before a loan is processed. Salla also repeated information received at the meeting about the temperature in the Northeastern area since the 1930's. According to the official reports, from 1931 to 1955 temperatures locally were above normal. From 1950 to 1960, it was the dryest period in the records, 1960 to 1976 was the wettest and from 1960 to 1965, temperatures locally were the lowest. Salla continued that in the 1980's well fluctuation was simi- lar to 1931 to 1955. Officials, according to Salla, said Pennsylvania is the most difficult state in which to predict weather due to the flexibility of the jet stream. Kingston Township supervisor, Edward Price reported that the court found Developer Tamanini's Phase I and Phase Il water inter- connection in violation. Price said Tamanini is now meeting before the supervisors Monday night for a hearing and the supervisors are to hand down a decision at the regu- lar Wednesday night meeting of the supervisors. Salla said that the Environ- mental Protection Agency is pass- ing legislation for monitoring or- ganic compounds in water. They : estimate there are approximately 2,500 companies across the coun- try in violation of contamination with a high degree of nitrate in the water which affects pregnant women and infants. There was a recommendation | approved that a committee of the members would meet with Dr. Brian Redmond of Wilkes College to try to set up the compilation of the survey returns. The next meeting of the water ] commission will be Thursday, May | 18, 8 p.m. at the Kingston Town- ship Municipal Building.
