bit of a disappointment. The
monument fails to recognize

August 4, 1790 and originally

put together a project to help
Ava and her family, who live
in Clermont, Fla. The result is
a 5K walk/run and picnic that
will be held June 11 in Lake
Carey.
Although Mason lives in
Pittsburgh and Ava is in Flor-
ida, it was important to form a
local event. Mason was born
and raised in Tunkhannock,
and she wanted to bring the
community together for a
cause.
“The power of one is really
the power of a community,”
said Mason, who spent an
entire day in April collecting
donations and hanging fliers
at 35 local businesses. Local
donations include T-shirts for
the event from Wisnosky Jew-
elers and the Lake Carey Inn
offering use of its outdoor
facilities for the day of the
event. Mason has also had
constant help from her co-
coordinators, her cousin Gina
Severcool-Getts and Justin
Patchcoski, through confer-
ence calls and said the effort
is a “total collaboration.”

form, according to the Myas-
thenia Gravis Foundation of
America, is a chronic autoim-
mune neuromuscular disorder
that is characterized by fluctu-
ating weakness of the volun-
tary muscle groups.
“It’s not a disease that’s read-
ily well known,” said Harry
Krewsun. “The prevalence in
Stacey Selig and Wendy Sochovka at the the United States is estimated
event. to be about 20/100,000 pop-
ulation. The disease occurs in
all races, both genders and at
any age. The disease itself is
not curable but it is managed
with proper medication and
proper supervision from a
neurologist.”
Myasthenia Gravis is not
thought to be directly inherited,
nor is it contagious. It does
occasionally occur in more
than one member of the same
family, according to the Krew-
sons. Common symptoms can
include a drooping eyelid,
blurred or double vision,
slurred speech, difficulty
chewing and swallowing,
weakness in the arms and legs,
chronic muscle fatigue and
difficulty breathing.

chronic and any of these symp-
Harry Krewsun also empha-
sized how important it was
when he was encouraged to
visit a support group in Mary-
land. “It was wonderful. One
of the members put us in touch
with a chapter liaison. We had
our first Northeast Pa. chapter
meeting in January. We have
seven people in the group, and
June 4 is our next meeting.”

Dr. Scott Friedenberg, a neu-

“We’ve found some people

“A lot of people are misdiag-

important that they are under
the supervision of a neurol-

Abington Journal Correspondent
SOUTH ABINGTON
TWP.- The South Abington
Township board of super-
visors announced a newly
acquired stretch of land at its
meeting May 23. The 67.5
-acre property was acquired
from the Veda Corporation
and will be set aside for rec-
reational purposes, according
to the board. The property
stretches from Williams
Street to Camins Parkway
and, according to Giles Stan-
ton, will be “Set aside forev-
er to be a green area in town.
There will eventually be
trails for people to walk and
enjoy the woods forever and
ever.”
Other news discussed at
the meeting involved the
water splash park at South
Abington Park. Two weeks
ago, the board opened bids
for a loan to replace the
splash pad. Half of the mon-
ey was able to come from an
easement granted to the
Western School for the Deaf,
while the other half was vot-
ed to come from the recre-
ation fund. Joseph Sproul
emphasized that this approval
came from the local voters.
“They actually said ‘We
want you to tax us a little
more,’ ” Sproul said. We’ll
use the money for maintain-
ing a green space.”
Work was completed on
the project in time for the
Memorial Day holiday week-
end.

The dedication of the new

rial Monument took place May 28.
Clarks Summit Borough Council
member Herman Johnson, was on
hand, “This is something that
we’ve needed in the borough for a
long time, a Veterans Monument
to celebrate all of our veterans in
the Abington area that sacrificed
their life during war time, and the
people that assisted on the home
front too.” Planning began two
years ago. The monument is locat-
ed across from First National
Bank on North State Street.

Bridge
from past
to future
On May 29, the fourth
tallest bridge on the Pa.
Turnpike was dedicated as
the John E. Fitzgerald
Memorial Bridge.
The bridge, is 151 feet
tall, according to William
Capone, Director of Com-
munications and Public
Relations for the PA Turn-
pike Commission. The
structure, which took two
years to build, opened in
1957. The late John E.

gineer who worked on
highway projects includ-
ing the bridge. Dignitaries
were on hand for the cere-
mony at the Ramada Pla-

inspired to begin a journey through
history in memory of his father,

“A little research led to more
research and I ultimately ended up
contacting the National Personnel

souri. Unfortunately a fire at that
facility July12,1973 destroyed the
detailed records of my father’s
service. They were, however, able
to confirm the awards that my

dar with a start date with teach-
ers August 29 and the first day
of school for students August
31. The board approved an
agreement between WVIA and
the Lakeland School District
for the Scholastic Instructional
Television Online Program for
grades K-12 at a cost of $1,200
for the 2011-2012 school year.
Treasurer Mary Retzbach
made a motion to appoint Mike
Costa Treasurer of the Board of
the Lakeland School District at
a salary of $2,000 and set the
Treasurer’s Bond at $50,000,
effective July 1, 2011 through

school cafeteria at
Abington Christian A-

Green was transformed
into Ancient Rome May
24 with posters, learn-

tone path and teachers
and students in kinder-
garten through eighth
grade dressed in Roman
attire that they created.
Fifth grade student
Eva Rappenglueck of
East Benton attended
wearing a bed sheet as
her toga with a pink
strip of a shower curtain
as a decorative touch
and a chain from her
mom’s purse as a belt.
The set was made by
the seventh and eighth
grade students, with the
instruction of the school
art teacher, Annette
Brush. It took them
about a month to pre-
pare. The role of Empe-
ror Imperius, was played
by Kenn Anderson Sr.
of Scranton; the empe-
ror’s two servants were
played by Eden Brock
and Paige Schultz, sev-
enth grade. Anderson
said that he has partici-
pated about six or seven
times at Abington Chris-
tian Academy, but he
plays a different charac-
ter each time.
“It’s a great opportuni-

of the classroom and to
teach kids history as it
was lived,” said An-

The day started off
with the emperor’s en-
trance at 9 a.m. He gave
a speech and told the
students what the day
would entail. Then all
moved to the cafeteria,
where they were divided
into groups and had 25
minutes at each learning
station. The seventh and
eighth grade students
were helpers, rather than
participants.
At the art station, stu-
dents learned how to
make mosaics from tiles
and learned Roman ter-
minology. At the aque-
ducts station, they
learned about Roman
architecture. Another
station consisted of
learning about Roman
numerals, scroll making
and laws. At the fourth
station, the students
learned the ways the
Romans made bread,
and students got to mix

Of course no one worked
while you had kids. Once she
(Gretchen) was in grade
school, (the late) Chris Van-
ston told me, ‘Women can do
anything they want.” She was
an inspiration to many women.
So I told my husband I
thought all I had to do was
take a test to get my real estate
license. All of the women then
were becoming real estate
agents…Next thing I knew,
three days later, he (Jim) came
home and he had my calling
cards and letterhead made for
me as an interior designer. He
said if I was an interior design-
er, why would I jump over the
fence… (to real estate)?”
Eagen’s Irish Import busi-
ness, Shanty n’ Lace, grew out
of a trip to Ireland.
“It (the business) just
boomed,” she said. “Once it
finally took off, I had a good
business. I had men call on
Christmas Eve to ask, ‘What
does my wife want?’”
Eagen was involved in a
number of organizations, in-
cluding the Woman’s Club of
the Abington Heights Civic
League. “When I first came
here, thank God there were
organizations, because this
town was small. You knew
everybody in it. ,” she said.
Through her involvement
with the Abington Junior
Woman’s Club, Eagen learned
the Friendship House Chil-
dren’s Center needed help and
as a result, the art program at
Friendship House was started
by the Abington Junior Wom-
an’s Club.
“When I came to town, the
Welcome Wagon came and
called on me. They gave me
something from Keen’s Phar-
macy. The women would
come to the house with gift
certificates so you got to know
where your drugstore, church-
es and movie theater were
located. They gave you all of
these little gifts and called on
you at your house to welcome
you.”
And Eagen also has fond
memories of the shops in
Clarks Summit.
She said, “We had gift shops
– one was the Dutch Door and
the other shop was Westlakes,
(located next to Young’s Fu-
neral Home.) . Every person in
town literally bought some-
thing in Davis Variety Store
probably every day. ”
The former Angelo’s Res-
taurant located on Old State
Road was another hot spot in
Clarks Summit, Eagen said.
“Everybody in town went to
the original Angelo’s Restau-
rant in Clarks Summit. The
owner was an opera singer… .
He would tend bar and then all
of a sudden he would start to
sing and everybody loved it.
“…The whole community
still binds and it’s not as easy
to find the binding, because it
has gotten so big. We didn’t
think anything of walking over
and knocking on someone’s
door. In the 1950s, 60s, 70s
and 80s we did it, although we
were formal in other ways.”
Currently, Eagen spends her
time painting and working as
an artist in her studio at her
home in Clarks Summit.

Will gas hit $5 a gallon
How high will pump
prices go this summer?
I don’t know about you,
but it has me already
changing my driving hab-
its.
Many analysts think we
will pay $5 a gallon for
gas this summer – and
some think gas will cost
much more than that.
On April 20, the AAA’s
Daily Fuel Gauge Report
had regular unleaded av-
eraging more than $4 per
gallon in six states – Ha-
waii, California, Alaska,
Connecticut, Illinois and
SUBMITTED PHOTO New York.
We experienced the
same thing happen here in
Northeastern Pa., but pric-
es over the last few weeks
or so have retreated below
$4 a gallon.
The thing I hear most
often is the oil companies
are taking advantage of
us.
The Justice Department
has announced a task
force to investigate fraud
and manipulation in the
oil industry.
Unfortunately, the U.S.
had no way to control
global price pressures on
oil in 1979 and it has no
way to control the price
of the commodity in 2011.
One of the biggest influ-
ences on oil and gas pric-
es can be found in your
wallet: the U.S. dollar.
Commodities are priced
in U.S. dollars on the
world market, and we
have a weak dollar right
now.
A feeble dollar means
we have to pay more to
buy foreign oil.
It also means foreign
currencies are able to buy
more of the commodity
for the same amount of
money.
If foreign nations take
advantage of a weak dol-
lar and buy more oil,
you’ve got rising global
demand.
When demand rises, oil
prices are poised to rise.
Since oil prices are set
in U.S. dollars, we feel
the impact of price spikes
in a way that nations us-

Some analysts are say-
ing that gas could hit
$6.50 a gallon this sum-
mer given high demand
and the potential impact
of “one or two hurri-
canes.”
Emerging markets exert
another big influence on
oil and gas prices.
Tremendous economic
growth in China, India
and other developing na-
tions means they have a
sustained demand for oil
and gasoline, and it is not
declining.
Factor in recent political
unrest in some oil-export-

the core reasons for $4

Thinking about buying a
scooter or motorcycle in-
stead of that SUV??
Some people suggest we
boycott the gas stations in
a region for a day, howev-
er, this is not likely to do
the trick.
Another factor is our
own demand.
You are hearing stories
about people only driving
on weekdays, or foregoing
trips or cycling or taking
the bus to work.
Affirming this phenom-
enon, March credit card
data showed U.S. retail
gasoline expenditures

over-year.
I was recently listening
to National Public Radio

prices will ease back a
little bit and we’ll see a

$3.25 and $3.75 for gaso-
