With the band packing up its
equipment Thursday night and
most folks, patrons and volun-
teers alike, long gone, a few of
us sat in the parking lot of St.
John the Evangelist Parish
following the opening night of
the annual bazaar and won-
dered what was more striking:
the moon climbing in the dark
sky to our left or the steeple of
the United Methodist Church at
the corner of Broad and Church
streets towering over the trees
to our right. We had trouble
taking our eyes off either.
The moon was about as full
as the moon can be but there
was something about the old
steeple, in need of repair to be
sure but with a distinct air of
dignity, that gave the moon a
run for its money. With the
lighting from the bazaar casting
a glow on the trees, the steeple
took on an air of elegance that
brought most of our small
group to declare it the winner
in this impromptu beauty con-
test of inanimate objects. It was
truly something to behold on
this clear, crisp August night.
I was especially pleased be-
cause I have this thing about the
steeples of Pittston and West
Pittston. I never get tired of
looking at them. And I look at
them all the time.
I mentioned here once before
that I can see one of the twin
towers of St. Casimirs Church
from my front yard. I kept look-
ing at it while mowing the lawn
Thursday afternoon, enjoying
the way the gold of its cross
stood out against the green
backdrop of the mountains to
the west. St. Casimirs is empty
now, an early victim of the
downsizing of the Diocese of
Scranton. That saddens me but
does not take away from the
majesty of the structure.
I see the complete St. Casi-
mirs in all its Baroque glory
almost every day. When I drive
down Butler Street, which I do
several times a week, the stee-
ple I see from my yard is dead
ahead for the first several
hundred feet. Its eye-level to
me before Butler begins its
descent toward the Susquehan-
na River but it doesnt stay that
way. Just as I reach the home
thats been in the Linskey fam-
ily for as long as I can remem-
ber, the road commences its dip
downward and St. Casimirs is
slowly revealed the way it
might be if someone were pull-
ing back a curtain on a massive
stage.
The curtain in this case is the
overgrown shrubbery ahead and
to my right. As the car moves
along and I make sure it
moves ever so slowly little by
little, the shrubbery gives way
to bring more and more of the
church into view until every bit
of it fills the array. At that mo-
ment I lean toward the wind-
shield in order to see the yellow
brick building from top to bot-
tom and bottom to top, taking
extra care to ignore the For Sale
sign attached with masonry
nails where the cornerstone
used to be.
As I pass through the in-
tersection of Butler and Church
streets, however, I turn my eyes
away from St. Casimirs. I cant
help it because to my direct left,
out of the drivers side window,
looms majestic St. John the
Evangelist, perhaps the most
spectacular church in the entire
diocese, inside and out.
St. Johns sits at the bottom
of another hill and from here I
am eye-level with its rose win-
dow. If its nighttime with the
church aglow in flood light, and
there are no cars behind me, I
actually come to a complete
stop as I marvel at its beauty.
Slowly rolling along again,
St. Johns disappears behind
some homes, but as it does, the
United Methodist Church of
West Pittston, located across
the river in a town aptly nick-
named The Garden Village,
comes into view, its whiteness a
perfect contrast with the green
of the trees around it. Many are
familiar with this spectacle as
seen from the top of William
Street, especially at night when
it is lighted, but the view from
Butler Street is my favorite. I
gaze at it as long as I can.
If I happen to be heading to
West Pittston, whether by the
Fort Jenkins Bridge or the Fire-
fighters Memorial Bridge, I
lose sight of the white Metho-
dist steeple, but am able to
catch the tippy-top of the stee-
ple of First United Presbyterian
Church, its turquoise tip point-
ing toward the sky. This too is
one of my favorite churches and
I often drive out of my way just
to enjoy its majesty.
Returning from West Pitt-
ston, I prefer to take Water
Street and never mind getting
the stop light at the intersection
with Kennedy Boulevard. Sit-
ting there, I enjoy the simplicity
of the First Presbyterian Church
directly in front of me.
I feel just as content sitting at
the red light at the intersection
of Main Street and Columbus
Avenue in South Pittston. From
there one can see the steeples of
Pittston right across the horizon
above the rooftops, those of St.
Johns taking center stage. The
view always makes me grateful
I get to call this place home.

As if getting ready to host
50,000 people in downtown Pitt-
ston isnt worrisome enough un-
der normal circumstances demo-
lition and sewer and sidewalk
construction in the downtown
has the Tomato Festival Com-
mittee members on alert.
Its a little stressful, said co-
chair Lori Nocito, but whenyou
look over the years weve over-
come obstacles before.
Co-chair Mike Lombardo
agreed. The first year we
moved into the new lot we had a
lot of challenges. An old garage
had to be demolished a month
before the festival.
But the special challenges this
year are mostly out of the com-
mittees control. As of Friday,
less than a week before the fes-
tival, Main Street in the festival
lot block was a maze of traffic
cones, barricades, trenches,
heavy construction equipment
and missing sidewalks.
As Lombardo put it, Main
has been like s slalomcourse, go
left, go right. We just have to deal
with it. Were calling this the
suckit upyear andremindingev-
erybody the inconvenience is
caused by progress.
Lombardo said he recom-
mended the festival T-shirts
shouldsport a logowitha tomato
surrounded by construction bar-
riers.
On Thursday a deep trench for
a storm water pipe installation
was right across the festival lots
Main Street entrance and a con-
struction crew was working on a
trench right on the lot in the area
where the band shell will go.
But by Saturday morning both
these areas were filled and
patched.
By Tuesday the construction
heavy equipment, including a
backhoe which was parked on
the lot Saturday, will be movedto
a lot behind city hall.
The city also halted work on
the open space, or Boden outlet,
in favor of the festival because
they didnt want a dumpster on
Main Street right across fromthe
lot.
On Tuesday Dentes Catering
will begin erecting the vendor
tents, which is less a beginning
and more an end to several
months of preparation.
In the spring parade chairs Jim
and Judy Deice began working
on a parade line up, while Nocito
was working on coordinating
times for booking entertainment
and Susan Lombardo began con-
tacting the vendors.
The queen pageant also re-
quires months of preparation.
In mid-June Guido Galli in-
spected the electrical system.
This week, even with a perma-
nent electrical infrastructure in
place, Galli still has to supervise
the stringing of some 130 lines
for the 60 vendors.
Saturday is a yeoman day for
the committee with off site
events the 5K race, parade and
tomato fights requiring logistics
like mile makers, water stations,
police protection, and clean up.
Each night after the festival
closes two to three hours of clean
up and shut down work remains.
Lombardo said the state of the
area around the lot by Thursday
wont be perfect but it will be
safe. Were asking everyone
bear with us this year. When they
come back next year theyll see a
major transformation.
Downtown manager Rose
Randazzo agreed. Were trying
like heck. As far as the sidewalk
in front of Palazzos and Reillys
goes the contractor promised it
would be ready. You cant stop
these multi-million dollar pro-
jects, but they are doing the best
they can. One more year to bear
and it will look like a different
town.
Nocito said she expects the
festival toget bigger andbetter in
the future.
We were in Parade Magazine.
Were getting more national ex-
posure. We want to see the lot
growand were working with the
city to make that happen.
Plenty to do as festival nears

At B & G Beverage, Burger
King, Quinns Market, and the
Coffee Table Restaurant the
news that Governor TomCorbett
awarded Pittston a $2.5 million
grant to jump start a $9.4 million
condo project on the citys river-
front was met with both opti-
mism and skepticism.
Bob Potenza is the co-owner
of B & G Beverage right next to
the condo site. While admitting
that having 41mid-scale housing
units next door could only help
his business, he said he has a
hard time believing the project,
which he has been hearing about
for 10 years, will actually happen
and hes not happy that taxpayers
are footing part of the bill.
I personally dont think it will
happen, Potenza said. A ton
has been spent already and no re-
sults yet. Im very disappointed
Governor Corbett is wasting the
taxpayers money. The money
should go to relieve property
tax.
The ton alreadyspent Poten-
za referred too is grant money
the citys redevelopment author-
ity used to acquire and demolish
the two old buildings the Turco
building and a state employment
office which occupied the site.
One was bought with a $650,000
housing rehabilitation grant
from 2007. Some of the citys
$1.5 million share of casino
money was used to buy the other
property.
Ann Marie Conroy, 78, who
came into B & G to buy lottery
tickets agreed with Potenza.
Why should our money go to
private business, she said. The
streets are rotten. They are tear-
ing everything down and not
building anything up.
Two retirees having lunch
across the street at Burger King
had a different opinion. Marty
Redding hopes it gets built. It
takes them so long to do any-
thing, but yeah, that would be
good for the city. They have a
nice viewof the river over there.
His friend Tony Bianco said
the city needs a shot in the arm.
The city needs something like
that. It really does. I think it will
help the city a lot.
Bill Yurkon, of Exeter, said he
has no problemwith public mon-
ey going into the project or the
seeming slow progress. Slow
and steady wins the race. You
need money fromthe state to get
the project going. If Pittston
doesnt get it will go someplace
else.
Burger King manager Paul
Matreselva didnt have an opin-
ion on the use of public money
on the project, but hes looking
forward to having new housing
so close. People living across
the street in walking distance
will help us, he said.
Lou Scarantino, a shopper at
Quinns, finds it hard to believe
the units, expected to cost over
$150,000, will sell. I dont see
in a recession people paying tri-
ple digits to move into Pittston
and look over the river. If I could
pay triple digits Id be looking
over the ocean.
Scarantino said the money
should be spent on more afforda-
ble housing. They should build

Some call it a shot in the arm, others a waste of tax dollars

FACTS OF
LAW
Brought to you as a paid public service by
the Law Ofces of Dominick P. Pannunzio,
294 Main Street, Dupont, 655-5541
By
Dominick P.
Pannunzio, Esq.
The U.S. Supreme Court has held in a unani-
mous decision that an Army reservist who had
been terminated from his civilian job as a hos-
pital technician could bring a claim under the
Uniformed Services Employment and Reem-
ployment Rights Act based on evidence that the
individual who termintated him, an unbiased
human resources manager, relied in part upon
discipline issued by the employees two immedi-
ate supervisors, who were motivated by hostil-
ity toward the employees military obligations.
The situation where an employee seeks to hold
an employer liable for the animus of a supervi-
sor who is not the ultimate decision-maker, is
commonly referred to as a cats paw case. The
same theory might well apply to other types of
employment discrimination.
***
The Mississippi Supreme Court has upheld the
constitutionality of the states price gouging
law. In a recent unanimous decision, the justices
overturned a lower court ruling that the lawwas
unconstitutionally vague. The lawsays that dur-
ing an emergency, goods and services shouldnt
cost more than whats ordinarily charged for
comparable items in the same market area at
or immediately before the declaration of a state
of emergency or local emergency. Compre-
hending the nature of the conduct prohibited
by the Price-Gouging Statute requires neither
an advanced degree from the Wharton Busi-
ness School nor an accounting degree from one
of our fne public universities, Supreme Court
Justice Randy Pierce wrote.

apartments for people who live
around here, not for people who
already have money.
At the Coffee Table restaurant
FrankHusbandsaidpeople mov-
ing into small cities is a trend.
Though hes from Back Moun-
tain he is familiar with the pro-
ject. I think its the right thing.
People want to live near services
and a downtown setting like Pitt-
ston gives them that.
Husband didnt object to the
use of public money on the pro-
ject. As a taxpayer Im con-
cerned about spending, but it
would be short-sighted not to
help a project like that get start-
ed. People should look to the
long-run benefit.
Downtown manager Rose
Randazzo said Husband has the
right outlook and she isnt both-
ered by naysayers. There are al-
ways going to be skeptics, she
said, but its going to happen
and it will be a tremendous boost
for the city.
The condo project will be six
stories and include 41 units with
82 parking spaces. Jerry Mullar-
ky of the Redevelopment Au-
thority said a unit cost-estimate
of $265,000 attributed to him in
a news storyduringthe weekwas
a misquote. He estimates the
units ranging from 1,190
square feet to 1,620 will be in
the $170,000 range.
The city is meeting with the
developers, Siniawa and Grimm
LLP of Dickson City, tomorrow,
Monday, where Mullarky said,
Well go over next steps to get
project on track.
With the project the city ex-
pects to capitalize on a nation-
wide trend of young profession-
als moving are into older small
cities, reflectedbyloft apartment
developments in Wilkes-Barre
and Scranton. .
This trend will generate reve-
nue for the city and increase the
average assessed value of homes
which will help manage the mil-
lage rate. It is also hoped bring-
ing in new residents will put a
spotlight on the neglected river-
front park and enhance the Main
Street business atmosphere.
In other news, it was an-
nounced last week that Pittstons
Main Street redevelopment pro-
ject will receive $3 million in
state RACPgrant funding for the
construction of a $6.45 million
retail and office building to be
developed by Gilbro Realty, Old
Forge, on the northeast corner of
North Main and William streets.
The building is planned to in-
clude 6,800 square feet of first-
floor retail space and 9,100
square feet of office space. Some
of the grant will also be put to-
ward the renovation of a neigh-
boring three-story building, the
construction of off-street park-
ing spaces and some streetscape
work.

88-year-old Michael J. Butera,
60-year-old Michael I. Butera
and 12-year-old Peter Butera are
all members of the Pittston YM-
CA.
The three generations together
findthe facilitya place of not on-
ly exercise but also of refuge. To-
gether they represent not only
three generations of Buteras but
also three generations of mem-
bers at the Y. The first Butera to
have a Y membership was
grandpa Michael J Butera.
I have been a member of the
Y ever since Broadstreet, said
the elder Butera.
Althoughhe considers himself
strictly a swimmer, he also
dabbled in a bit of boxing back in
the day. Eventually he passed on
the torch and took his son to the
Y.
I wanted him to get physical-
ly fit like his daddy, said grand-
pa Butera. Michael I. Butera first
entered the Y when he was
around 5 years old.
I learned how to swim there,
and I played all the sports and
games there, he said. He played
in various basketball leagues
while still on the swim team.
Oh, when I was a kid we used
to go to the Y every day after
school. They had a lobby and
ping pong tables and vending
machines, people hung out at the
Y. It was the place to hang out in
Pittston, he added.
From basketball to volleyball,
and even some track he went to
the old Y constantly until a fire
destroyed the building. Then to-
gether Michael, senior and ju-
nior, joined the new Y on Main
Street.
It was very exciting because
everything was new, obviously
everything at the old Y was very
very old, said M.I. Butera.
How old? The original Y
opened in 1880 and didnt move
to Main Street till 1983.
Because of the Ys family at-
mosphere, friendly staff and
downtown Pittston convenience,
Michael I. Butera passed along
the family membership tradition
by bringing his son to the gym.
Its tradition, he said.
Third generation Y member
Peter Butera first entered the Y
with the goal of learning how to
swim. Nowthat he has grown up
a bit that goal has changed.
I come here every day to play
basketball; I come here to shoot
around. I get to meet a lot of peo-
ple playing basketball, Peter
said.
But why did Michael I. take
his son Peter to the Y? With so
many other gym options out
there, why the Y?
Most of the other fitness
clubs are geared towards adults
they dont have things for chil-
dren. They dont have things for
families to do together. I come
over here with my son and play
basketball with him; I come over
here with my father and go
swimming with him, he said.
He expressed that the YMCA
is consistently active within the
community, and that that dedica-
tionis what separates it fromoth-
er fitness centers.
The hours are unbelievable.
They are open 7 days a week
5:30 in the morning till 9:30 at
night. Im an early morning per-
son; my fathers a mid-morning
to mid-afternoon and my son is a
night guy. At any time of the day
there is a Butera at the Y.
The Y not only provides a
pool, basketball court andfitness
center to keep the Buteras happy,
it also provides a plethora of
friendships along the way.
I met people at the Y when I
was 5 years old that I am still
friends with today, Michael I.
said. My older children all
came to the Yand grewup in the
Y, and they went to daycare here
and went to preschool here. They
met kids when they were in pre-
school that they are still friends
with today and they are young
adults now. I think you make
friends here andyoumeet people
here that provide lifelong rela-
tionships.

For months about 30 local men and
women have been putting in hours of vol-
unteer work so 1000s of us can have four
days fun this week.
We are talking about the members of
the Tomato Festival Committee. In
wouldnt seem that there is a lot in it for
them.
Committee members dont make mon-
ey, vendors do.
Committee members dont get mmm
thats good, vendors do.
Committee members hear more com-
plaints than praise. More of you shoulda
done this, than thanks for doin that.
So why do they do it?
They may get personal satisfaction
fromit. Theymayfeel the warmthof com-
maradire from being part of a successful
team.
But we suspect theres another reason
they do it.
For love.
They love our area.
They love the festival.
They probably love tomatoes, too.
And they must love us to work so hard
to make us happy.
So heres to them, the folks of the Pitt-
ston Tomato Festival. Here to loving them
back. Heres a public bit of thanks and
praise for:
Mike Lombardo, Susan Lombardo, Jim
Zarra, Lori Nocito, Lee Bantell, Phil
Campenni, Jeanie Bantell, Tony Bantell,

see themat the festival (theyll be the ones
working) stop them and say thanks.
Thanks for
the festival
Over this past month Ive done a lot of think-
ing. I thought about where my life is going, if I
am happy with myself, and wondering if I am
moving in the right direction.
At first, I was very discontent. It seemed like
everything was going wrong. My muscles were
sore, my writing was far fromgood, and the girl
who I thought was the one didnt share the
same feelings as I did.
For those who know me, everything was on
the up-and-up. I was still optimistic, I carried a smile on my face,
and everything seemed to be flowing with ease.
However, deep in the depths of my soul, I was screaming for
someone to save me and it seemed like nobody was listening, or
so I thought.
Somebody was listening, although Im not sure if I realized it
at first. Lizz Raffa has been my friend only a short amount of
time, but I feel comfortable tellingher anything. Shes the kindof
person who tells it how it is and she will drop anything, just to
help a friend in need.
If you need someone to put a smile on your face, you go to
Lizz. Even if youre only with her for five minutes she somehow
makes you feel like youre on top of the world. She is the one
person whos been there for me in good times and in bad.
When the girl who I cared for rejected me, Lizz was there to
pickupthe pieces andassure me that the right personis out there.
She made me realize that when I finally do find that right person
it will be the greatest feeling in the world.
Who knows? Maybe she is closer to me then I think.
She taught me to open my eyes and appreciate what I have
right in front of me. She gave me the strength I needed to keep
pushing and when Im falling I know I could count on her to
catch me.
Most importantly, when Imwith Lizz my CP(ed. insert: cere-
bral palsy) doesnt exist. Even if its just for a few seconds, Im
pain free.
You see, Lizz doesnt see a guy with a hurt leg.
Lizz sees me for who I really am, a good friend.
I dont knowhowI will ever repay her but I do knowthis: Lizz
Raffa was the friend who saved me in every way possible when I
was crying for help.
I know she will always be there for me and I will always be
there for her. She is a friendwhoI care about deeply, myguardian
angel.

ing his final semester at Luzerne County Community College.
He just completed a summer internship at the Sunday Dispatch.

My sister bought me these very funny cocktail
napkins. On them, there is a picture of a woman
from the 1960s who looks freakishly like my own
mother. She is frowning and saying: Wheres my
damn pickle fork?! I cant have anything nice with
you kids around!
Well, told third-hand, it doesnt really do it jus-
tice.
Perhaps you really need to see the actual photo to
cackle. Anyway trust me, its funny and as with
anything minutely humorous to me, it has staying
power. And, as such, we use this phrase over and
over and over again in my house.
Mostly, though, I emphasize the phrase: I cant
have anything nice
with you kids
around! I meanit as a
joke; but not really.
Yesterday, I was
searching high and
low for my margarita
glasses.
I was muttering and
swearing under my
breath. Where in
Gods name is that
fourth &*%$#@
margarita glass?
Where? Its been here
for ten * !@#$ years
and now its not?
What the?
My daughter, over-
hearing my subtly nu-
anced rants, sailed in-
to the roomon a cloud of self righteousness and 20
year-old pseudo-wisdom.
Mom. Is it really such a huge deal? Three of
anything is fine. Three is just enough. Three gets
the job done, right?
I thought about this.
She continued: You dont have four kids, you
have three. Three is just as good as four, get it?
Three is good enough!
Jeez. I hate to admit this, but Mademoiselle has a
point.
Three really is just as good as four.
Three may almost be preferable.
Usually. I know that I have always been told by
my mother that in terms of flower arranging, for
instance, never put two or four flowers in a va-
sealways make it three. An odd number of flow-
ers, apparently, make the perfect display.
Can the same be said of children?
I do know that I would have never been content
with one child, although most people are. I need
noise and I need maelstrom. It is sort of how I was
raised and its the wind that propels me forward ev-
ery day.
Andyouknowthe kindof windof whichI speak.
Two is okay, but shes right.
Three really suits me.
Besides life, of course, you need three to five
people to really play a good game of anything, ac-
tually.
Twister, for example. If just two people play
thats weird. Three? Its a party!
Same goes for cards, Chutes & Ladders, and
Double Dutch if two are twisting the ropeswho
the heck is going to jump in? A phantom jump
roper?
Also Red Rover! If its just two players who
the hell is Red Rover, Red Rover going to call over,
I ask you? No one. Thats who.
And if I may go one step further, let me just pro-
claimright here and now, everything I have learned
about life, I have
learned from the
games of my youth.
Sportsmanship,
fair play, democra-
cy, choosing the
cute bachelor in the
Mystery Date game,
desperately trying
not to cheat during
Old Maid, and total-
ly avoiding being an
Old Maid at all
costs, right up until
the ripe old age of
24 these are req-
uiems for life.
Sure, you can play
a boring and mean-
dering game of
chess, checkers,
backgammon or pinochle with one other person. Is
that fun? Exciting? Fly-by-the-seat of-your-pants
frivolity?
No.
What canyoulearnfromthat? Youcanlearnhow
to fall asleep with your eyes open, thats what.
Its true. Like the song says: One is the loneliest
number that youll ever do.
Two? Eh.
But three three is better than two and just as
good as four.
Three is just right for me.
However, my glass is still missing.
I really cant have anything nice with these damn
kids around.
And now, I cant even have a fourth margarita.
But I can, happily, play Twister and pray for the
cute Beach Date guy to appear behind the mystery
door during a rousing game of Mystery Date.
Maybe hell bring his own margarita glass.
In any casethats Life.
With three players.

... you need three to five people to
really play a good game of anything,
actually. Twister, for example. If just

Feelinga bit like youhave beenshort changingyouandyour childs
diet lately? Eating out and enjoying snack foods too much?
Why not perform a fiber makeover on you and your childs diet?
Fiber is important for our health, since it can help prevent diseases
like heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Fiber helps us to feel full
longer and traps unhealthy food components such as cholesterol. It
also helps remove food fromour bodies quickly and keeps our diges-
tive system working well.
Regardless of our age, all of us including children need to be in-
corporating more fiber into our diets. Adults should consume 14
grams of fiber per 1000 calories consumed. So for most adults that
would be 25-30 grams per day. Children need less fiber than adults.
For kids ages 1-3 years, the recommendation is 19 grams per day and
for children ages 4-8, the daily recommendation is 25 grams.
Youdont needtotake fiber supplements toobtainthe recommend-
ed intake. You can consume enough if you eat the recommended five
or more servings of fruits and vegetables daily plus seven servings of
whole grains and beans.
A food is considered high in fiber if it contains at least 5 grams of
fiber per serving. Examples of high fiber foods include a fresh pear, 1
cup of cooked broccoli, 1 cup of cooked kidney or navy beans, or 1
cup of cooked oat bran. Other good sources of fiber include fresh
fruits and vegetables, nuts, and whole grain breads and cereals.
Here are some tips to help you introduce a new food into your
household. First, its OKfor youngchildrentoplaywiththeir foods as
long as they wash their hands first and of course it is supervised by an
adult. Let them take part in preparing meals as much as possible. It
would be great if they can pick the cucumber or tomato and then be a
part of preparation too. Some other tips are: Be a role model; slowly
introduce one new high fiber food at a time to replace low fiber
foods; look at nutrition labels and last but not least, be creative, find
out how to substitute high fiber foods for lower fiber foods. Below
are some examples along with a great dip recipe to get you started.
Low Fiber Meals
Breakfast: Orange juice, sweetened cereal
Lunch: Turkey & cheese sandwich on white bread, potato chips
Dinner: White pasta with tomato sauce, cookie
High Fiber Meals
Breakfast: Whole fresh orange, whole grain cereal without added
sugar
Lunch: Turkey &cheese sandwich on whole wheat bread, rawcar-
rots with low-fat dip
Dinner: Whole wheat pasta with tomato sauce, fresh strawberries
with whipped topping
Fiesta Hummus
1 can (15 1/2 oz) garbanzo beans
1/2 tsp cumin
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup plain yogurt, fat-free
1 Tbsp lime juice

Question #1
In 1948 what
threatened to bank-
rupt local amateur
baseball teams?
1948 63 Years Ago
Ted Smulowitz and several other
parties purchased Champ Brewery,
located on North Main and New streets
for $68,000. After the sale, the brewery
was scheduled to be dismantled with
contents and equipment to be sold over-
seas. City officials had hoped that the
brewery, which closed prior to the sale,
would re-open to employ the approxi-
mately 50 workers furloughed by the
closing.
According to trayman.com the history
of the Pittston brewery is as follows:
Peter Daily 1873 1875, Armene Bur-
schell 1875 1878, H.R. Hughes & Co.
1878 1884, H.R. Hughes 1884 1887,
Estate of H.R. Hughes 1887 1896,
Pennsylvania Central Brewing co. of
Scranton, Hughes Ale Brewery Dept.
1896 1906, Jos. H. Glennons Brewery
1907 1920, Liberty Brewing Co. 1933
1934, Pittston Brewing Corp. 1934
1942, Yankee Brewing Co. 1942 1946,
Champ Brewing Co. 1946 1948.
Visit this website to see a collection of
Glennon Brewery beer trays.
The body of Pvt. William Barret of
Pittston arrived at the Lehigh Valley
Railroad Station. Pvt. Barret was killed
in action on February 18, 1944, on Anzio
beachhead in Italy, thirteen months be-
fore Germany would surrender on May
7, 1945.
During the four-month battle, British
and American losses totaled 7,000
killed, 36,000 wounded or missing, and
44,000. The siege of Anzio ended on
May 23, 1944, when the Allies launched
a breakout offensive.
The body of T/5 Arthur Frith of
Wyoming arrived at the D.L. & W. Rail-
road Station. T/5 Frith died in May,
1944, from wounds received in a fierce
battle at Monte Cassino Abbey, Italy.
With the allied launch of Operation
Diadem, the fourth battle at Monte Cas-
sino, the German Gustav Line collapsed
when the Second Polish Corps succeed-
ed in capturing the abbey, thus ending
one of the longest and bloodiest engage-
ments of the Italian campaign.
1958 53 Years Ago
The Pittston Sky Knights appealed to
residents of Greater Pittston to allow
youngsters to continue to fly radio con-
trolled model airplanes as a hobby. The
club members ranging in age from12 to
30 were looking for a suitable location
that did not generate complaints from
surrounding residents. Sullivan Park was
available but had too many scheduled
events. An Exeter resident agreed to let
the club fly the planes on his land. Club
members spent months cutting weeds,
installing fencing, and then signed a
lease, but neighbors complained of the
noise.
Club officers asked that neighbors
look at the benefits the club is offering
by keeping its younger members off the
streets. Bill Kane, club advisor com-
mented, The boys of the club need a
place to fly their models. A level area
about one hundred-fifty foot square,
where all the neighbors are friendly.
Does anyone know of such a place?
Avenue Lanes in Exeter held its
grand opening offering 16 lanes with
automatic pinsetters and bowling dem-
onstrations by Tom Hennessey and
Robbie Frye. Although a design for
automatic pinsetters was attempted in
the 1930s it wasnt perfected for mass
production until 1952. The 1948 Wyom-
ing Avenue address is currently Modern
Lanes in Exeter.
The Sunday Dispatch Inquiring Pho-
tographer asked Pittston residents, Do
you think its proved good or bad for the
nation that women were given the right
to vote?
Tom Brown answered, I dont think
anybody would be able to prove that
allowing women to vote hurt America.
Beverly Narvel added, I cant under-
stand why they waited so long. Women
have as much at stake as the men and
should have equal rights.
Mrs. Carmelita Maira said, Women
have a lot of good ideas, I think they had
a lot to do with advances made in our
country.
Leo Earlley stated, I dont think
women should have been allowed to
vote. There are enough men to handle
the operation.
Womens struggle for the right to vote
began in the 1800s but. The 19th
Amendment was first introduced in
Congress in 1878, and ratified on Au-
gust 18, 1920. Few early supporters lived
to see the victory.
1968 43 Years Ago
The approval of the new Pittston Area
cafeteria equipment was in the hands of
the women who had been doing the
cooking in the district for many years. A
final test by Pennsylvania Power and
Light employees included stoves, ovens,
dishwashers and tray conveyors. It
wasnt until staff members Mary An-
drews, Catherine Zavada, Dolores
Rowan, Shari Hurley, Julia Lasky and
Antoinette Grabiec gave their approval,
did everyone breathe easier.
Sgt. Jerry Moses of Avoca was sta-
tioned at Phan Rang, Vietnam. There he
saw much suffering especially among
the children. In a letter to the Methodist
Church Bulletin, Sgt. Moses asked that
clothing, personal hygiene items and
money be sent to help buy food and a
water pump for the village. Phan Rang
is located on Vietnams South China Sea
coast in a semi arid drought environ-
ment interrupted with occasional peri-
ods of heavy torrential rains. Much of
the village, which was situated close to
an Air Force Base, was destroyed in the
war. Japanese used Phan Rang during
World War II. Later, the French used
this same airstrip. Photos of Phan Rang
circa 1968 can be found on-line.
Penneys was the first to offer back-to-
school bargains with boys slacks at
$3.98 and acrylic sweaters at $3.99.
Cotton print material was $.58 a yard
and sturdy corduroy for $.77 a yard.
1988 23 Years Ago
Local Historian Bill Hastie was con-
cerned about the condition of one of the
oldest cemeteries in the Greater Pittston
area, a plot of land on Broad Street
containing grave markers from the early
1800s. Hastie reported that the last per-
son buried in the cemetery was a mem-
ber of the Engleman family, a common
name in the Pittston area. Joan Tilley of
West Pittston also said her grandparents
were buried in the cemetery.
The ninth annual Dispatch Cup Golf
Tournament was set for Fox Hill Coun-
try Club. Since its inception in 1980,
Wyoming Area took home the honors in
seven events. Pittston Area took the
championship once. Top golfers from
Wyoming Area Rob Yatsko, Mike Pas-
colini, Ross Denisco, Jeff Donnora and
Scott McDermott would join Pittston
Areas Sean Gavin, John Luckasavage,
Jim Luckasavage and Jim Albert and
Setons Al Mueller, John Soy, Harry
Quinnan and Fred Gustave. If anyone
knows the outcome of the tournament
please call me at 602-0168.
The areas oldest basketball rivalry
ended in 1988. The much anticipated
game between Seton Catholic and Pitt-
ston Area was eliminated because entry
of a new Class A team into the
Wyoming Valley Conference. Both
teams coaches and players were dis-
appointed games between the two would
end. The Seton Catholic, Pittston Area
basketball rivalry began with St. Johns,
Pittston High School matches. The arti-
cle in the Sunday Dispatch stated, In
over 20 years of play between Pittston
and St. Johns/Seton, no PA basketball
team on any level of competition has
ever lost a game to the parochial
school.
Question #2
What item, even though thought to be
deadly at one time, would never be giv-
en up by Pittston residents?
1998 13 Years Ago
Fun facts about the 1998 15th annual
Pittston Tomato Festival:
Grand Marshals Jack Grimes and
Mae Middleton McHugh
Contestants for Pittston Tomato
Queen: Leanne George, Alycia Palsha,
Courtney Dombroski, Cindy Morris
Jessica Taroli, Jennifer Forlenza, An-
gel Webby, Winter Rusiloski and
Heather Olszewski.
Answer #1
Lost or stolen baseballs were causing
undo strain on the finances of local
amateur baseball teams. With umpire
costs at $7 each, team managers ap-
pealed to fans to return homerun balls.
In order to keep the balls, fans would
throw them to friends positioned outside
of the fence. Others would bring cheaper
baseballs to the park and throw them
back if they were fortunate enough to
catch a foul. Baseball officials appealed
to the better nature of fans hoping the
play-off season would not bankrupt the
leagues.
Answer #2
The British believed the tomato was
poisonous and the fear existed in the
United States until early in the 19th
century. According to tomatofacts.com
tomatoes are safe and healthy to eat,
their leaves are actually toxic. The U.S.
Department of Agriculture says there
are 25,000 tomato varieties while other
sources list the number at 10,000.
The superior taste quality of regional
tomatoes cannot be duplicated anywhere
else on Planet Earth.

The Wyoming Area Class of 1971 recently celebrated their 40th
anniversary reunion at St. Barbara Parish Hall, Exeter. More than
80-classmates attended the two-day reunion.
The class was treated to a tour of Montgomery Avenue Elementary
school from where the class graduated prior to Secondary Center
being built in 1975.
Mass at St. Barbaras was held in remembrance of the deceased
classmates.
Music was provided by The Reason, led by classmate Dave Cupa-
ni. Catering was done by Marianaccis Restaurant led by classmate
Fred Marianacci and his wife Patty.
Aspecial presentation was held during the evening when commit-
tee members presented Robert Memory citations from the Pennsyl-
vania House and Senate honoring his dedicated and tireless work hes
conducted over the many years for the class. Bob lost his sight due to
diabetes a fewyears ago, but that didnt stop himfromcontinuing his
work for fellow classmates planning every slight detail to the suc-
cessful weekend.

ears ago, tomatoes were only red. Now, there are
a variety of colors to choose from, such as, yellow,
gold, orange, and of course, red. Flavor, for the
most part, is determined by the variety, but on the
whole, the gold and orange are much sweeter than
red. Some can be also been noted for a more fruity
taste.

State Rep. Phyllis Mundy an-
nounced that Exeter has received
$35,469 and West Pittston has
received $23,132 fromthe states
Recycling Performance Grant
Program.
Exeter and West Pittston have
excellent recycling programs,
and these grants are an incentive
from the state to continue doing
their good work, said Mundy.
Recycling reduces the amount
of waste that gets dumped in
landfills and energy consump-
tion because the materials have
already undergone processing.
West Pittstons grant is based
the boroughs population and on
recycling 1,079.5 tons of materi-
al in2009. Exeters grant is based
on the boroughs population and
on recycling 2,300 tons of mate-
rial in 2009. Exeter is the lead
agency in a multi-municipal re-
cycling program with neighbor-
ing communities.
Mundy added that recycling is
a significant part of the states
economy. According to the state
Department of Environmental
Protection, there are 3,803 recy-
cling-related businesses in the
state that employ 52,316 people
with a total annual payroll of
$2.2 billion.
These grants are a smart in-
vestment of state money, Mun-
dy said. They help Pennsylva-
nias environment and econo-
my.
The grant program was estab-
lished in1988 with the signing of
the Municipal Waste Planning,
Recycling and Waste Reduction
Act.

A virtual unknown to the Pittston Area
community eight months ago, new Patri-
ots gridiron boss Mike Barrett has already
made a name for himself within the PA
locker room as the high school football
season is set to kickoff tomorrowwith the
official opening of the Fall Sports Season.
That alone, should speak volumes
among the Pittston Area faithful.
The former Mid Valley and Valley
Viewassistant coachhas brought a renew-
ed energy and a dedication back to the
programthat its current players are happy
to experience some of them for the first
time.
There is a lot of newenergy in the Ce-
falo Center, said senior Evan Hahn, a
two-way starter during last seasons 0-10
campaign. He is in the Cefalo Center ev-
erydayfor hours uponhours, puttingus to
work, watching film, everything you can
imagine. He has brought a lot of hard
work back to the program.
Junior Jordan Houseman has also no-
ticed the change from last season.
He works with us, lifts with us, said
Houseman who burst on to the scene last
year as a sophomore playmaker. All he
does is put time inwithus. Hes here every
day and that work ethic has rubbed off.
The newcoachs work ethic has not on-
ly rubbed off on Hahn and Houseman, but
on the entire program as over 60 players
are routinely part of the football teams
daily workouts according to Hahn.
Those numbers are something Barrett
was counting on when he was hired.
Its a big school and there are a lot of
kids we are dealing with, said Barrett, a
middle school teacher at his alma mater,
Valley View. But the kids have done an
outstanding job since January. They have
hit the weight room hard. They have been
here all summer. They have done every-
thing we have asked them.
There is a lot of excitement around the
program.
That excitement also has to do with the
positive energy Barrett brings with him
from playing and coaching for one of the
more storied programs in Northeastern
Pennsylvania. That energy, along with be-
ing able to relate his players as one of the
younger coaches in the area, has grown
the confidence of a team that seemed to
have no direction last season.
Ive been around coaching a while but
it is my first head coaching job, said Bar-

With one week remaining in
the regular season Old Forge
Chiropractic put themselves in
contention by winning all three
matches this week.
The Bonecrackers are led by
the ever affable Sal Alaimo and
played without the services of
Dr. John Cacciamani. The other
teammembers Chuck of the re-
markable hit Giordano and
league president John Gruttado-

Kudos to Old Forge Chiropractic
for putting on a great team per-
formance.
The second half race has come
down to a four-team race with
KWIK N EZ Mart leading the
way and Blandina Apartments
and Cuzs Susquehanna Bar &
Grill only one game behind.
We could see a duplication of
the first half with a one-game
playoff needed to determine who
finishes first.
The points accumulation will
play a major role in deciding the
playoff positions as evidencedby
one point separating second and
third place.

rett who has coached under the
legendary Frank Pazzaglia since
1997. It is a learning process.
But our approach was to bring a
positive attitude here, to be here
for the kids all of the time. I
wanted to have an environment
where the kids had a place to
come whenever they wanted.
And they have really been ac-
cepting of that.
We have a great, great staff
that gets along very well. We like
to (have fun) with the kids, but
when its time to take care of
business, we are all business.
You have to have a good mix.
You have to be able to come
down to their level at times and
tell them, Hey, we all under-
stand what it is to be a kid. Weve
been in your shoes and we arent
going to ask you to do anything
we dont think you can handle.
The Patriots open the Wyom-
ing Valley Conference season on
the road on Sept. 3 at Tunkhan-
nock at 1 p.m. The game was
originally scheduled for Friday,
Sept. 2, but a problem with the
lights at Tiger Stadium has
pushed kickoff back to Saturday
afternoon.
Barrett opens first season as PA grid coach tomorrow
Nicole Rose Lukesh, a resi-
dent of Wyoming, took part in
the 30th Annual Pennsylvania
Keystone State Games in
swimming this past summer.
The Keystone Games at-
tracts amateur athletes not on-
ly from Pennsylvania but also
from all adjoining states plus
the District of Columbia. The
swimming events took place
at the Central York High
School in York.
Lukesh won three gold med-
als and one silver medal in the
girls 11-12 year old category.
She won gold in the 50 Free
(27.92), 50 Fly (29.81), and
100 IM (1:10.86), and took sil-
ver in the 100 Free (1:02.13).
In June she attended the
North Baltimore Swim Clinic
for a week-long swim clinic
held at the North Baltimore
Aquatics Club in Maryland.
While there Lukesh met
Olympic gold medalist Mi-
chael Phelps and trained un-
der several Olympic swim
coaches including Phelpss
coach, Bob Bowman.
Nicole Rose is the daughter
of Mary Rose and Joseph Lu-
kesh.

The Triple-A level is where players are
constantly going out and trying to prove that
they are worthy enough to don their big
league clubs uniform and compete at that
level. Its an exciting level for players and for
the fans as well.
Youve been hearing about your teams pro-
spects for months and maybe even years and
when they get to Triple-A, now you finally
can get a taste of what they have to offer.
That being said, the Yankees just called up
their best pitching prospect and I couldnt be
happier!
Manny Banuelos is a gem of a pitcher who
has a great future ahead of him and he is
finally pitching for the Scranton Wilkes-
Barre Yankees.
He is easily my favorite Yankee prospect in
their entire system and you can see why by
just watching one start.
He is a left-handed pitcher, which any Ma-
jor league team salivates over these days, so
you know he is going to move through the
system fast. Hes a superior left handed
pitcher compared to most though.
He has three-plus pitches and for being on-
ly 20 years old that is really saying some-
thing. To be a great starter in Major League
Baseball you need at least three good pitches
to help get you past some of the lineups some
teams are sporting these days.
Most starters in the MLB dont even have
three good pitches. Its the elite pitchers that
have that kind of arsenal. For example, Justin
Verlander, CC Sabathia, and Tim Lincecum.
You get the idea. Its a big deal to have three
really good pitches.
Banuelos pitches are a fastball, changeup,
and a curveball. The key for him to use those
pitches in success is to mix them up well
enough where the speeds are complimenting
each other and the hitter sees the ball break-
ing from all different angles at different
times. That will keep the hitter way off bal-
ance.
With young players like Banuelos, the first
question everyone always asks is who does
he remind you of?
To answer that question, Manny Banuelos
reminds me of Johan Santana with a better
curveball.
I should clarify though, he reminds me of
Johan Santana but when he had an arm. It
wasnt too long ago that Santana was dom-
inating the American League with the Twins.
His mistake was going to the Mets. They
seem to ruin everyone dont they?
Now imagine that dominating Santana
(who only had a good fastball and an amaz-
ing changeup) and add a great curveball to
that. Its a scary, but also gratifying for Yan-
kees fans, thought isnt it?
What Banuelos needs to work on while hes
with SWB is his command and location. For
a 20-year-old, he has very good command
and location but pretty soon hes going to be
counted on in New York so he needs to ad-
vance that command and location to the level
of a 25 year-old. Once he masters that, he
will be great.
Now the rosters are going to expand on
September 1 and chances are Banuelos will
get a look by the Yankees on or before that
date. That gives you about two, maybe three
weeks to get out to PNC field and take a look
at this kid for yourself.
A-Rod on his way
News out of Tampa is that Yankees super-
star Alex Rodriguez is expected to play at
PNC Field on Tuesday and Wednesday nights
for the SWB Yankees on a rehab assignment
after knee surgery landed him on the DL in
mid July.
ESPN is reporting that A-Rod is expected
to play two full nine-inning games with SWB
which means local fans will get to see one of
the most feared hitters in Major League his-
tory to bat 6-8 times at the minimum.
He is currently rehabbing at the Yankees
Minor League facility in Florida, and should
rejoin the Major League club on Thursday
after his two games in Moosic.
Tommy Romanelli is a Wyoming Area grad
and a sophomore at LCCC. He writes for
pinstripesplus.com. His thoughts on the SWB
Yankees will appear in The Dispatch
throughout the season.
