WOMEN Continued from Page 1 at the high school since 1996, was forced to cast the girls in a male role because of a lack of male in- terest in the musical. He even had to recruit outside of the school to fill two additional male charac- ters: Professor Bhaer, played by Lake-Lehman graduate Ryan Glatz; and Laurie Laurence, played by Abington Heights stu- dent Mitch Burke. Pineno says he chose “Little Women” as this year’s musical, in part, because there are only six male roles. Three male Lake-Lehman stu- dents, however, will perform in the pit orchestra during the per- formances — the most in-school student musicians ever to partici- pate. Thomas Bassett will play the flute and clarinet, Jonathan Andseron will be on the oboe and English horn and Vito Sicurella will play trumpet. Senior Johnna Hudak will per- form the role of Meg March. Hu- dak is active in the Music Box Theater and performed in a pro- duction of “Fiddler on the Roof” last summer in Wyoming Semi- nary Performing Arts Institute. She also played the part of Mrs. Upson in Lake-Lehman’s per- formance of “Mame” last year. When the “sisters” are togeth- er, we try to act sisterly,” Hudak said of the way the students are preparing for their roles. “I try to talk to my ‘husband’ (Mr. John Brooke, played by Derek Os- borne) and learn more about Cast members involved in Lake-Lehman High School's production of “Little Women" are, from left, first row, Au- tumn Galka, Winter Winner, Brittany Adams, Amanda Teutonico and Rebecca Rosser.

She also has 10 years of dance experience at Linda Sipple Dance Center in Luzerne. “I really enjoy it,” Conklin said of her additional responsibilities in the production. “It gives me more insight into what I might want to do with my life because I want to go on with theater.” ER PY Continued from Page 1 Pit orchestra Conductor — Jonathan Pine- no Piano — Brenda Nighbert Flute/clarinet - Thomas Bassett Oboe/English horn - Jo- nathan Anderson Trumpet — Vito Sicurella Trombone — Steve Fabian Percussion — Lou Piazza Other Musical director — Jonathan Pineno Student director - Conklin Choreography — Leah Con- klin Costumes — Pam Pearson, Anita Koziol Sound - Kevin Koziol Lights — Eric Bella Spotlight — Zach Petroski Leah ALZHEIMERS Continued from Page 1 ella Parker-Killian, region- or of the Greater Penn- | O ing in Tunkhannock. Like Yakoski, Sharon Eshle- man, who lives in Mountain Top ' but works in Dallas, came to the group for the first time looking for support. Eshleman’s parents both live in Lancaster County.

She says it is estimated that by 2050, there will be one million new cases of Alzheimer’s each year. “Nearly 50 percent of caregiv- ers die before the patient does due to stress-related diseases,” Daily said. “Hence, it is vital that these givers alleviate some of the stress by taking a break.” Family and friends of caregiv- ers can do things to help the care- givers, Daily says, such as provid- Folinded t the Alzheimer's ing meals, cleaning the house, doing shopping, spending time as a sitter with the patient so the caregiver can go out, taking care of children, calling, giving gift cards and taking the patient for a ride or to a sporting event. Dallas is not only a means of sup- port, but a social occasion. She and many of the other participa- nts go for lunch after the meeting for friendship. “I come more for just being able to share what is going on in my life with people who under- stand,” Fairley said. “And we have fun, too, in addition to it all. I really encourage anyone who can to get to a support group be- cause it makes a big difference.” In celebration of its fifth anni- versary this June, the Dallas Alz- heimer’s support group is devel- oping a “wish list” to spread awareness of what caregivers to PUZZLE ANSWERS Puzzles, Page 2 . — King Crossword — Answers Solution time: 21 mins.

She would like to place the materials inl local them. “What we’re tossing around in our minds is trying to collect a lit- tle money from various sources so we could do something that would be profitable (non-mone- tary) for others...the whole thing boils down to Alzheimer’s and the caregivers,” said Daily,. “We want to be able to donate money to research, but essentially to get others to understand the caregiv- ers have so many millions of problems.” G0oTNG ON NOW NEW 3032E Compact Utility Tractor + 314-hp Glevel sngine «+ 1186-1b. loader lift capacity WD standard loader work. i 8C28UCI6142 -00280303 + Hydrostatic drive transmission and Ideal for pasture mowing, tilling and LEHMAN POWER SLS & SERVICE 83 HAZLETON STREET ASHLEY, PA 18706 (570) 824-8020 10ffer ends 8/3/2009.
