Another highlight of the show will be Playboy Maga- zine’s 20th Anniversary Double Centerfold Play- mate, Nancy Cameron.

To excite race fans is Don Schumacher’s Stardust Vega Funnycar. For the sensualist, vans are showing the range of possibilities in transforming ordinary ‘“‘eco- nolines” into thickly car- peted, plushly interiorized pleasure rooms on wheels. Plus the most outstanding street machines rebuilt and restyled by local residents. Weis store in Pottsville Siegfried Weis, President of Weis Markets, Inc., Sun- bury, Pennsylvania has an- nounced the opening of the 90th store of the Central Pennsylvania Based Food Chain. The new 26.000 square foot superstore of the 70’s will be located in the Fairlane Village Mal along Route 61 betweer Pottsville and St. Clair. Weis Markets is a multi- faceted food company that developed from a single cash and carry grocery store in 1912 into a company that today owns and operates 90 supermarkets in Pennsylvan- ia, Maryland, and New York, Sunbury Sea Food Company which distributes frozen sea- food and grocery items to restaurants and institutions, and three Amity House res- taurants are also an integral part of this progressive di- versified food retailing com- pany.

During the past year, Weis Markets has adop- ted a new unique meat pro- gram which is called “TEN- DER CHEK.” Under this program the company guar- antees the beef that its cus- tomers purchase will be ten- der, without the use of chemical and mechanical tenderizers and has gone to great lengths to electroni- cally test each side of meat for tenderness before it is processed in its Central Meat Processing Facility in Sun- bury prior to being sold in its retail stores. : Letters Dear Editor: What can you say about a man who took a mere handful of people multiplied them from everywhere and gave them a feeling of be- longing and believing? We at St. John’s Episcopal Church were a lost people, only a few old faithful re- mained. Our Church had fallen from a prosperous one to merely existing. Many times you could count the attendance on your two hands. Yes, Father Red didn’t have much to work with when he was given this “Mission Impossible.” His task was to make St. John’s a parish again able to support our own church and rectory. One by one we came back, this man gave where there was none, re- sponsibility where needed, a sense of belonging and a re- newed faith in our Lord. At first Father Red traveled from Dauphin to Marietta every week, leaving his home and family, while he met with the backbone of what was left of St. John’s, our loyal vestry. Always during his long weekend he found time to visit any sick ones or shut-ins. Father Red and his wife, Dorothea, now reside at St. John’s rectory,however they maintain their home at Stoney Creek Valley, Dau- phin, Pa. The father of three children, Father Red is a graduate of, the Univer- sity of Penna. school of dental medicine with a doc- tor of dental surgery de- gree. He practiced dentis- try for over 20 years in Harrisburg and Mechanics- burg, and was very active in the Harrisburg dental socie- ty. In addition to being our full time rector he holds down a full time job as Dis- trict director of seven coun- ties in region II and Region- al dental consultant region II of the Department of Health. In 1958 he became an ordained Deacon in the Epis- copal Church, he then ser- ved for 10 years as assistant to the Dean of St. Stephen’s Episcopal Cathedral, Harris- burg, Pa. On November 35, 1972 he was ordained to Priesthood, and on May 1, 1974 he was appointed priest in charge at St. John’s in Marietta. We at St. John’s take our hats off to this special man and would like you, the people of the commun- ity to know of him and welcome him and his family to this area.
