DALLAS HIGH GUIDANCE NOTES [.ehman-Jackson PTA The PTA sponsored basketball program for Lake-Lehman Jack- son 5th and 6th graders recently closed its season with a basket- ball game of students playing against the coaches and parents. To even out the odds and add a little fun to the game, some of the parents had to wear boxing gloves while they played. It was a memo- rable night of fun and at one point an unusual foul being called on a mom for tickling a player. One hundred eight students participated in the program this year, with five girls teams and six sponsors basketball game boys teams. Many PTA members helped make this a successful season by volunteering time, ef- fort and coaching abilities. Some local area businesses helped the PTA get this basketball season off to a great start. Offset Paperback donated a new control module for the electric scoreboard. Friedman Electric Co. of Wilkes- Barre donated 100 feet of control wire, and Jerry Schutz donated his expertise in helping put it all together. The Jackson Twp. Vol- unteer Fire Dept. also donated two First Aid Kits. ATTENTION SMOKERS!!
