The club cel- ebrates its 70th Anniversary with adinner at the Irem Temple Coun- try Club May 28. Club members Bob Dolbear, George McCutcheon and Charlie Kishbaugh will present a histori- cal perspective of Dallas Kiwanis, which will include photographs and newspaper clippings of vari- ous Kiwanis activities. Dolbear and McCutcheon can certainly attest to the accomplish- ments of the Dallas Kiwanis since the pair have been active in the organization for a combined 92 years. ~ During that time, the Dallas Kiwanis has been involved in nu- merous projects which have touched countless individuals throughout the area. ‘A few of the most recognizable Kiwanis projects include a junior high basketball tournament, scholarships for Dallas High School students, the creation of the farm system in the Back Mt. sic, the Festival of Music and pro- viding wheelchairs for handi- capped individuals at the Back Mt. Memorial Library. In addition, Dallas Kiwanis has played a key role in the Luzerne County Fair and the Back Mt. Memorial Library Auction. Dolbear, 81, is a retired Dallas High School principal and has been involved with Kiwanis for 45 years. “I've enjoyed all of our projects,” said Dolbear, who served as club president in 1965. “I feel honored to be part of such a wonderful organization.” While most people his age are on the receiving end of such ac- tivities, Dolbear doesn’t think twice about continuing to help those in need. “I'm in good health,” he explained. “I'll keep going as long as I can. I feel fortunate for the things that I have and I think it is important to help others.” Helping out at Mercy Center in 1982. Ron Mosca, kneeling; standing from left, Paul Selingo and Bob Doibear. McCutcheon, 79, retired after teaching at Dallas High School and working as director of place- ment, counseling and recruiting at Luzerne County Community College. He also served as chap- ter president and later became a lieutenant governor over one of the 22 Kiwanis Divisions through- out Pennsylvania. McCutcheon attributes his in- volvement in Kiwanis to the way he was raised as a child. “I've been involved with helping others my whole life because that's the ‘way I was taught,” he explained. “Whenlwas growing, up youdidn't hesitate to help your neighbor. It world wide. There are 252 chap- ters with 12,000 members in Pennsylvania. Kiwanis and its affiliate organi- zations — which include the Build- ers Club (junior high), Key Club (high school) and Circle-K (col- lege) — form a world-wide service organization of individuals who want to improve their communi- ties. The primary purpose of the club is to provide service beyond the capabilities of an individual while assisting the aging, needy . and youth. The Dallas chapter currently has 28 members and always wel- comes new ones. “Our organiza- | Dept. of Agriculture to conduct dog license checks Dog wardens from the Agricul- ture Department will conduct checks for unlicensed dogs in Luzerne County. Owners of unli- censed dogs may be prosecuted and fined under state law, ac- cording to Regional Dog Law Su- pervisor E. Dziak. Pennsylvania law says that all dogs over three months of age must be licensed and kept under control by the owner at all times. “It’s our job to enforce the law, and that includes prosecution,” Dziak said. “Dog owners need to understand that a dog license protects them as well as others. A license could mean the difference ‘between getting a lost dog returned and not ever seeing it again.” Dog licenses can be obtained at the county treasurer's office in Wilkes-Barre. Fees are $6 for spayed or neutered dogs and $8 for all other dogs. Senior citizens, 65 and older, and disabled per- sons pay $4 to license non-pro- ductive dgos and $6 for all other; dogs. Hearing dogs and aid dogs for the handicapped must be li- censed, although they are not subject to any fees. “Fines for unlicensed dogs or dogs roaming at large can be up to $100 plus court costs, depending on the nature and degree of the offense,”Dziak said. To report dog bites, damages. caused by dogs running at large - or other related dog problems, contact Russ Carney at 836-1573 or 836-2181. Please call Treasurer's Office at 825-1780 for other agents selling licenses. Mail-in dog license ap- plications can be picked up at the office of The Dallas Post, 607 Main Rd., Dallas.
