Whatever happens, we're expected to im- ' provise and make it work.” Camp's job is important — he must follow the play's action ex- actly and never miss a cue. “You need fast reactions and must be completely focused on your work,” he said. “Working the dimmer panelis similar to playing a gigantic keyboard, using lights to create and change the mood.” Last year's performance of Romeo and Juliet was challeng- ing, shifting from moonlight on Juliet’s balcony to full lighting for the party scene, Camp said. . Production assistants receive valuable experience and a nomi- nal stipend for their work. Dallas High School drama teacher Donald Hopkins, pres- ently chaperoning a student edu- cational tour to Shakespeare's home in Stratford-Upon-Avon, England, is directing Twelfth Night this year. Other volunteers help out at the workshops, in the box office, on publicity, as sponsors or with fundraising. Mrs. Ann Stine does one of the most interesting jobs — she cre- ates a Shakespearean atmosphere on the college grounds, using flow- ers and plants, tiny lights strung in the trees and luminarias (spe- cially designed small enclosed lights) to line the walkways to the outdoor stage.

If the Dallas Borough Zoning Hearing Board grants several variances requested by Edward F. Orloski for a building housing four businesses, customers will be able to buy gas, do their bank- ing, get their cars washed and buy convenience store items in one stop. The board has delayed making a decision until it can meet at the sites of the former Dallas Exxon and Tokyo Japanese Restaurant for a first-hand look at the situ- ation. Orloski had requested vari- ances for front setbacks, pave- ment, parking and the size of signs at the 7,440 square-foot building planned for the two irregularly- shaped adjoining parcels of land at the Route 309-415 intersec- tion. He submitted plans for a com- bination gas station, convenience store, full-service bank and full- service car wash to the board at its June 29 meeting. John GordaandJohn A. Gorda, owners of the 309-415 Plaza next door, questioned Orloski at the meeting about the proposed build- ing's water source, parking and signs. “My well is only 60 feet from you,” John Gorda said. “Mine is contaminated by a hazardous chemical and has a special filtra- tion plant on it. I must have my water tested every two months. I don’t want your water usage to dry me up.” Zoning officer Milt Lutsey said that Orloski's engineer, Borton gas station, convenience store, bank and car wash and Lawson, had indicated on the site plan that access to the public water system was available. “It's on the other side of the highway,” Gorda said. Orloski said that he wasn't sure what his water source would be., Gorda also objected to’ the number of parking spaces which Orloski would be allowed. The. borough code allows one parking’ space for every 200 square feet of building floor space. “I had to shorten my building: by ten feet on either side because I didn't have enough parking spaces,” he said. His son, John A. Gorda, ques- tioned Orloski’s variance requests" for larger signs because he was- concerned that they might ob-, struct people’s view of his prop-* erty. » Orloski pointed out that the’ signs at the former businesses on- the site were larger than what he. is proposing. The board will meet at the site: July 7 and could make a decision’ at a hearing July 21. x Orloski had obtained zoning variances in August, 1993, for a- similar building to be located at. the former Dallas Exxon, but had: changed his plans, requiring him to submit a new application to the! borough. - Big donors Three ENCON employees who belong to the Red Cross Donor Gallon Club were recently recognized by the company.
