The term skippies never
caught on and Ive always won-
dered why.
In the same vein as yuppies
young upwardly mobile
urban professionals skippies
was an acronym, of sorts. It
meant school kids with in-
come and purchasing power.
Coined around the year 2000,
the term referred to a trend that
began in the 80s and snow-
balled. The trend was high
school kids working 20 and
even 30 hours a week at their
part time jobs. It was the last
nail in the family coffin. The
first came when mom had to
get a job because one income
just wasnt enough any more.
Then dad got a second job and
soon, every person in the house
capable of dressing themselves
and wiping their own noses was
working for a living.
Thats not how things were
when I was in high school.
Then, a part-time job was usu-
ally a paper route an hour or
so in the morning or afternoon
or an usher at the American
Theatre on Saturdays and Sun-
days. And only a handful of
kids did either of those. The
rest of us were busy being,
well, kids. And students. We
might have had a summer job
but that ended, ironically, on
Labor Day.
Teachers assigned homework
back then, tons of it. And you
were expected to do it, too, not
only by your teachers but even
more so by your parents. More
kids played sports then, too,
both varsity sports and intram-
urals and just plain pick-up
games with friends, and stuck
around after school to participa-
te in activities like Glee Club
and Yearbook Staff. What else
were we going to do?
Almost no high school stu-
dent in those days had a car
either. Sure we would have
liked a car but did we need
one? Not really. And besides,
who was going to pay for it?
Times have changed. Now
there are more cars in the stu-
dent parking lots at high
schools than in the teachers
lots. Today, every kid needs a
car. Why? Simple. They need a
car to rush to work right after
school. And why are they rush-
ing to work right after school?
Well, to pay for the car, of
course.
Any high school coach can
provide examples of potential
outstanding athletes in their
schools who never go out for a
team because of their part
time jobs. And any teacher can
tell you theres no point in as-
signing homework when kids
are just getting home from a
stint at McDonalds or Burger
King at 11 at night.
Maybe the term skippies
didnt stick because its too cute
to describe whats going on
here. Kids working like this
arent kids at all, really. They
might be only 16 or 17, but
theyve been turned into adults,
complete with adult responsib-
ilities and adult burdens. And
many of them think that should
bring adult privileges. Dont
adults unwind after a long day
with a few beers?
But giving the youth of
America almost full-time part-
time jobs did something else
to them that is not quite as
apparent. It shut them up.
In the 60s and early 70s not
only did high school kids not
work but neither did most col-
lege students. College students
sat around between and after
classes drinking coffee, smok-
ing cigarettes and solving the
problems of the world. For
better or worse, their solu-
tions often turned into demon-
strations, and the demonstra-
tions sometimes got out of
hand. It wasnt always pretty or
even logical but it was good for
America. Good in the sense
that public discourse is so im-
portant in a democracy that the
Bill of Rights guarantees it.
Young people should be ide-
alists, out to right wrongs,
quick to ask questions and
demand answers. If not the
young, then who? Comfortable
old guys like me sipping a
martini and wondering whether
to order the salmon or the osso
buco?
So I for one am glad about
this whole Occupy Wall Street
thing. Im not saying I agree or
disagree with what the pro-
testors are espousing, if they
are indeed espousing anything
other than their discontent with
the economy. What I am saying
is Im glad these young people
are speaking up and speaking
out. I had thought that was
thing of the past.
Im also pleased that, at least
so far, theyve kept it peaceful.
Even John Lennon, the work-
ingmans hero, sang, If youre
talkin about destruction, you
can count me out.
Some are afraid this move-
ment, if you can call it that this
soon, is going to gain traction
and upset the apple cart. Im
afraid its not.
Young people across America
might sympathize with their
peers currently sleeping in
Zuccotti Park but it all ends the
minute they have to punch the
ol time clock and starting
earning that car payment.

he cleans up cigarette
butts, picks up cans and
bottles, and empties trash
cans. She cuts grass. She pulls
out weeds, and waters
flowers. She sweeps
curbs. She clears drains
and trims shrubs.
Shes Angela Biscotto,
downtowns own Mrs.
Clean.
Biscotto, 48, is a seasonal em-
ployee of Pittston City. She is
charged with trying to keep the
citys main drags clean.
From the forks on South Main
to the Fort Jenkins Bridge on
North Main and on Kennedy
Boulevard from under the Fort
Jenkins Bridge to the Columbus
statue, she sweeps both sides of
the street twice a week. Along
the way she pulls out weeds and
tends to the flower beds.
She cuts the grass inWest, Sul-
livan and Jefferson parks. She
tends the landscaping at the To-
mato Festival/farmers market
lot, the YMCA, the firehouse.
As she put it, where ever theres
grass, Im responsible.
And if theres a call-off by a
city sanitation worker, shell take
his place on the back of the pack-
er.
Whats the worst of it?
Cigarette butts, she said.
Some people think Main Street
is an ashtray. I could sweep butts
up at the traffic lights four times
a day.
Why does she do it?
Its her job, of course, and she
does it for the pay, but theres
more to it than that. Pride, she
said. I was born and raised in
Pittston. When I was a kid peo-
ple appreciated things more.
Now thats diminished.
She hopes she can be a role
model. Hopefully people will
see me and take the initiative to
have some pride in Main Street.
Sure its frustrating with all the
construction. It frustrates me
sometimes, but were trying.
But for Biscotto the satisfac-
tion and positive feedback she
gets are greater than the frustra-
tion.
Highly visible in her neon
green safety jacket, shes often
greeted by residents. I had a
gentleman stop me and give me
$50 for flowers. A handicapped
gentleman told me a tree branch
was hiding the bus stop sign. In
15 minutes I trimmed that
tree around the sign.
A problem area which
requires a lot of attention
is the walk way alongside
the Gramercy restaurant,
she said.
Sometimes its lined with
broken glass and trash, she said.
It doesnt feel safe there.
She added, Mrs. Petrillo said
she feels safer when she sees me
there.

T
he four towns hardest hit
by the flood West Pitt-
ston, Duryea, Jenkins
Township and Exeter Township
combined have collected over
11,000 tons, thats 22 million
pounds, of debris at a total cost
of about $2.5 million.
This is not money that is paid
but rather billed. Most of that
money will be reimbursed by
the federal government.
By far West Pittston picked up
the most debris at the highest
cost.
Through the end of Septem-
ber the borough had send 5,500
tons to the landfill and had1,500
tons stockpiled waiting to be
hauled to the landfill.
That does not included debris
removed in October or debris
still on the streets.
The bill for the work and the
landfill tipping fees through
September was $2.1 million.
West Pittston got a fairly
quick jump on removal because
heavy equipment such as front
loaders and dump trucks were
handy due to the sewer project.
Pioneer Construction, using
three or four different haulers,
removed the debris on an emer-
gency basis.
The borough is now soliciting
bids for continued debris pick
up.

Well into adulthood Charles
Mazzarella didnt know any-
thing about the military or about
writing. So howis it today he is a
veteran of two tours in Iraq and
the author of a book of short sto-
ries and poems?
During his senior year at
Wyoming Area high school he
graduated in 1990 he aced the
ASVAB test (Armed Services
Vocational Aptitude Battery)
and National Guard recruiter
came to his house, but Mazzarel-
la wasnt interested. I just didnt
think it was for me. My feeling at
the time was I had to go to col-
lege or go to work.
He chose college. He went to
Lock Haven University. That
didnt work out so he came back
home to Wyoming and enrolled
in Luzerne County Community
College where he was drawn to
human services courses. He got
an associates degree, volun-
teered and then was hired to a
paid position with Vision, a
homelessness resources charity.
He stayed there two and one-half
years.
Though he liked Vision, the
pay was low. So, urged by his fa-
ther, he went back to school at
the University of Maine Machias
campus where he worked on a
crisis line and got his bachelors
degree in Social Sciences.
Back home, he couldnt find
work in his field and worked in
retail. He was living in Dimock
and feeling adrift when he went
to see an Army recruiter.
After several visits to the
recruiter, in July of 03 he signed
for active duty as a mental health
specialist. He was 31.
At basic training he had his
moments of doubt. Basic train-
ing was physically and especial-
ly mentally taxing. Ive got a
non-aggressive, non-assertive
personality. Believe me, you
have to be somewhat assertive to
go through basic. If you follow
the values of Army you wont
have a problem, the most impor-
tant one being respect. I went
from somebody who was very
reserved to somebody more as-
sertive and it helped me.
After basic he got more train-
ing in mental health. As he had
entered the Army with a bache-
lors degree, he could have gone
for officer training. I decided to
stay as an enlisted man, he said.
It just worked out better. I was
able to have more direct contact
with your typical solider.
Thats what he did in his two
tours in Iraq in 2003 and 2006
07, talk and listen to soldiers
one-on-one who were referred
by their commanders because of
combat stress.
I had a lot of interaction with
soldiers who went on a lot of
missions. Mostly younger, 19 to
25, mostly guys, through I talked
to a few women. They were
about my rank E-3 or E-4. They
were dealing with anger, sleep
problems, dealing with stress
from home from 8,000 miles
away. It was like my sergeant is
an idiot. My girls talking about
leaving. I dont want to do this
anymore. I felt bad for them be-
cause they were risking their
lives everyday. I was sympathet-
ic, but reality based. I had to tell
themthe reality is were here, we
cant go anywhere. You have to
do your job.
Mazzarella loved the work.
It was a great job. I was work-
ing in a masters level program,
even though as an E-3 or 4, I was
just a specialist. I had free reign,
pretty much.
One of the things that stressed
the soldiers was the grind of the
routine.
I call it the Groundhog Day
scenario same day over and
over. Sometimes you didnt
knowwhat the hell day it was un-
less you went to the dining hall
and they were serving Salisbury
steak so it must be Thursday.
Mazzarellas active duty end-
ed in March of 08 and was in the
reserves until December of 09.
While it was in Iraq that Maz-
zarella wrote most of his book
The LionShares, the seedfor it
was planted when he took a short
story course at Lock Haven.
It was easy, he said. Read it,
write a paragraph and well talk
about it. That summer I read
from the textbook. There were
hundreds of stories from Shirley
Jackson to Alice Walker. I got
hooked then. I didnt read as a
kid. Id always been intimidated
by novels, but short stories
From reluctant soldier and
writer to vet and author

300, Paoloni said.
The event is Friday at the
Kingston VFW. Jeanne Zano,
who is also from Wyoming, and
her band are playing.

Jack Smiles will be signing co-
pies of his latest book Bucky
Harris, a Biography of Base-
balls Boy Wonder this Thurs-
day, October 20, beginning at
6:30 p.m. at the Hoyt Library on
Wyoming Avenue in Kingston.
The book is published by
McFarland & Company. Smiles
took more than two years writing
and researching the book, which
is 320 pages and contains 33
photos, appendix, notes, bibliog-
raphy, and index.
While Harris is not technically
a local native he was born in
Port Jervis, NewJersey, in1896
his father moved the family to
Hughestown when Bucky was
three. In the 1920 census Bucky
was counted in Hughestown on
Rock Street and listed as a
weighmaster in a colliery.
Just four years later, at the age
of 27, Bucky, aka The Boy
Wonder, as the manager and
second baseman of the Washing-
ton Senators, led the team to its
only World Series championship
in an upset so stunning it was the
inspiration for the Broadway
play Damn Yankees.
Harris is a member of the
Baseball Hall of Fame.
Harris also managed the 1947
World Champion Yankees in Yo-
gi Berras rookie season.
The book chronicles Buckys
transformation from an obscure
breaker boy with dirt under his
nails to the toast of the nations
capital where the president of the
United States was a guest at his
wedding and includes his stint as
a professional basketball player,
his early days as a baseball play-
er, and his role in the racial in-
tegration of both the Senators
and the Boston Red Sox.
As a basketball player, Bucky
played for the Pittston Pitts in the
Penn State League from 1916 to
20 and participated in some
fierce battles with Scranton,
Wilkes-Barre and Nanticoke
teams and played against Hall of
Fame players.

adley Construction and
Santino Ferretti bought
St. Marys Assumption
Church, school, convent and rec-
tory, on Church and Carroll
streets in Pittston, in August
from the Scranton Diocese for
$75,000. Hadley President Pat
Hadley said a decision on what
they will do with the convent and
school wont be made until the
spring.
But the decision on the fate of
the church and rectory, which in
later years was used as kinder-
garten, has already been made
they are coming down.
This week workers carefully
removed the faux-wood vinyl
siding fromthe church. It will be
reused at Hadleys ongoing pro-
ject at the former Blessed Sacra-
ment Church on Rock and Divi-
sion streets in Hughestown.
Ferretti, of West Wyoming,
andHadleypaid$280,000inDe-
cember of 2010 for Blessed Sac-
rament Church and rectory
which includes five acres of
land.
They are converting the
Blessed Sacrament church,
which was built in 1941, into
high-end apartments. Called
Grace Luxury Apartments, the
units feature granite counters
and stainless steal appliances.
The first of the apartments will
be ready to rent in about two
weeks, Hadley said.
The project preserves the La-
dy of Lourdes Grotto which was
built by parishioners, many of
them miners, with stones from
backyards, fields and quarries in
the 1940s. The grotto was re-
stored and rededicated on Au-
gust 13, 1995, as part of the 50th
anniversary celebration of the
parish. The landscapingplans in-
clude a huge rose garden around
the grotto.
Before St. Marys Church was
sold, the bell, altar, organ,
stained glass and what are
known as the sacred furnishing,
such as the Stations of the Cross
icons, were removed and donat-
ed to various parishes and mis-
sions.
The art work on the ceiling is
still in place and will have to be
removed before demolition. Ju-
dy Dotzel of Trinity Artisans
specialists in religious art
housed in a former Catholic
church in mountaintop is going
to remove the ceiling art. She re-
stored the paintings a decade
ago.
The art includes three six-foot
diameter circular paintings of
the Evangelists and a 20 x12 foot
St. Mary which are original to
the church which was built in
1893 and two angels depicting a
young parishioner who had died
and the granddaughter of a par-
ishioner which were added about
10 years ago.
Dotzel said removing the
paintings can be tricky. I wont
know until I get up their in a
bucket and some scaffolding.
The paintings are on canvases
which are pasted to the wall and
secured with small nails to pre-
vent the edges from lifting.
Dotzel said she hopes to find a
new home for the paintings.
The Assumption church will
be the third demolished in the ar-
ea following St. John the Baptist
in Pittston and St. Marks in In-
kerman.

Jenkins Township has sent
about 1,300 tons of debris to the
landfill with the townships gar-
bage hauler, United Sanitation,
providing dumpsters and the
townships public works depart-
ment filling them.
The bill in Jenkins is over
$150,000 for trucking and haul-
ing dumpsters and about
$75,000 in tipping.
Much of the home debris has
been collected in Jenkins, but a
huge debris pile remains at Mi-
lazzo Industries on River Road.
Township supervisor Stanley
Rovinski said the board is work-
ing on a solution. Were nego-
tiating with Milazzo and FE-
MA. Were trying to resolve it.
Im optimistic.
As of a week ago Duryea had
picked up 992.11 tons and
racked up $50,597 in tipping
fees.
Duryea was in a unique posi-
tion among the affected towns as
the borough owns three packers
and did not have to pay trucking
and dumpster costs. Two pack-
ers were in service at the time of
the flood and the third was ser-
viced and put into action.
Lois Morreale, borough man-
ager, said the borough road crew
has been working hard.
Monday and half of Tuesday
we have regular garbage pick
up. Then they have other duties,
but any other time we have we
try to get a crew out everyday.
Were trying to do our best.
Exeter Township hired two
companies to provide dumpsters
and the township road crewused
its equipment to fill them. The
work went quickly and is nearly
complete.
The township did not have a
tonnage figure available, but a
conservative estimate is 2,000
tons.
None of the affected towns
have set a deadline for flood de-
bris pickup.

In our opinion Duryea Mayor Keith
Moss is a big, old sweetheart of a Teddy
Bear. A nice guy. An old fashioned gen-
tleman. Until a month ago most of the res-
idents of Duryea who elected him to
council twice and as mayor three times
felt the same way.
Nowbecause he didnt put his finger in
the dike hes scorned by many of those
who happily voted for him five times.
We heard that an editorial we wrote a
couple weeks ago where we referred to
Pittston mayor Jason Klush, half in jest, as
the countrys handiest mayor got Moss
in even further trouble as some people
wondered why he wasnt like Klush.
Well, nobodys like Klush. Hes differ-
ent breed of cat. Young and energetic with
an extensive construction background he
prefers work sites to meeting rooms. He is
anything but a traditional mayor.
It maybe easy for us to say, as nobody
here was directlyaffectedbythe flood, but
we wish people would stop it with the fin-
er-pointing and the blame game.
What is Moss supposed to be a hydrol-
ogist, a geologist, a river expert, a dike
builder? Is he supposed to be able to pre-
dict the future?
The Duryea officials had no way of
knowing the river would go above 38 feet
that infamous Thurday night. Isnt that
what we all were told?
What happened in Duryea is not the
fault of Mayor Moss and the Duryea
council.
What happened in West Pittston is not
the fault of the latest whipping boy, the
greedy rich. And by the way just because
someone lives in a big house on Susque-
hanna Avenue doesnt mean they are rich.
There is one place to place blame. One
place to point fingers: at Mother Nature
and her clouds, her storms, her deluge of
fallingwater. There was just toomuchwa-
ter and it came too fast.
End the
blame game
An impressive ceremony took place at the Dupont V.F.W. re-
cently, at which time Mr. Frank Lewicki was presented the
Bronze Star and his other WWII medals fromU.S. Senator Rob-
ert Casey, Senator John Yudichak, Representatives Mike Carroll
and Eddie Day Pashinski.
The speakers spoke from their hearts and were very gracious
to Mr. Lewicki, his family and all that attended the ceremony. I
am proud to say that they are our Pennsylvania Representatives
in government.
A big thank you goes out to Teresa Dennis, from Senator
Caseys office in Harrisburg, who helped me tremendously. I al-
so want to thank the entire Dupont V.F.W. Post 4909 Honor
Guard for the beautiful ceremony they conducted.
I will drop names, please. Commander, David L. Burrier;
Chaplin, John Philipps; Quartermaster, Eddie Zielinski; Sgt at
Arms, JimJones andJerryGuarneri were a great helptome from
the first day I mentioned the idea of a presentation.
Thank you also to, Ed Struck (age 95) for the beautiful rendi-
tion of the Pledge of Allegiance, the National Anthem and God
Bless America.
The entire ceremony was very heartwarming. Again, thank
you to all from the bottom of my heart for a very commendable
job.

Make that your Sunday dinner and feel
better aboyut helping out.

When going over the list of candidates for our new county
council on the ballot this November, voters should be on the loo-
kout for and least 4 red flags. The red flags should be next to the
names of Jane Walsh Waitkus, Linda McClosky Houck, Theresa
Morcavage, and Salvatore Licata. These four are the remnants of
a teamof eleven put together by county employee unions to try to
highjack our County government by monopolizing control of
County Council. Fortunately, voters had the good sense to reject
seven members of that group in the primary election.
In November, voters should do the same to these remaining
four. Government union panderers have no business controlling
how our tax dollars are spent. Government employee unions al-
ready have more than enough advocates and sympathizers in po-
sitions of power at all levels of government.
Those electedfor CountyCouncil shouldbe advocates for tax-
payers, period. Only a fox thinks its a good idea to put a fox in
charge of a courthouse, and the four foxes in the so-called
Working Families for Luzerne County bunch must be given
the boot in November. We taxpayers have been kicked around
long enough!

There was a story in the Times Leader on Friday about a
man named Rick Barry and his wife Sue. They established a
$1 million scholarship program at Penn States Wilkes-Barre
campus.
The story noted the couple is one of the leading Penn State
philanthropists having given millions to programs at Penn
State Wilkes-Barre and the main campus in the past 10 years.
Now, what I dont understand is why the occupy crowd
didnt crawl out of their parents basements and occupy New-
berry Estates the night the couple announced the scholarship
at the schools scholarship dinner.
After all, for Barry to be able to spread around that kind of
dough he must be one of those evil one-percenters who did
nothing to earn his wealth, but rather stole his fortune while
climbing on the backs of the downtrodden everyman.
I dont understand why the occupy crowd didnt march
around Newberry with signs decrying the filthy rich Barry
for not paying his fair share.
For crying out loud the guy worked are you ready to hear
this? are you sitting down? in the financial industry. He
even worked for Merrill Lynch.
Merrill Bloody Lynch?
He might as well have been in the mob.
Where is the occupy crowd demanding the government
take Barrys money and give it to them?
Really, thats what they are all about. Distilled down, this is
their one and only demand: for the government by force of
law to take other peoples money and give it to them.
Never mind that it is the evil rich in this country that are
already paying for 43 million people to be on food stamps, a
condition Obama and the Democrats are so proud of.
Never mind it is the evil rich, the one-percenters like Barry,
who are paying the rent, utilities and medical care for the
Democrats constituents.
Surely Barry started with a silver spoon in his mouth. He
must have had a rotten fortune from the start. Probably mon-
ey his parents stole from the hardworking, angelic poor.
No, wait, thats not his story?
Oh, he started out at a two-year college thinking of getting
into sports journalism, but then went to work in the financial
industry, eventually starting his own investment firm where
he invested peoples money helping them start businesses and
prepare for the childrens educations and their retirements?
What an SOB.

Halloween is right around the corner.
Decorations are out in the stores for sale and
folks are getting in the spirit of the fall holiday sea-
son.
Beans are a food that most people try, but dont
incorporate into their weekly food choices. Latino
dishes use a lot of beans, but they in this part of
Pennsylvania, may not be served on a weekly or
biweekly basis.
How often should we be eating beans?
According to USDA Dietary Guidelines, we
should be eating a minimum of 1 and 1/2 cup a
week for those consuming 1800 calories or more.
There are lots of reasons why we should include
them in our weekly foods. First, they are high in
fiber, soluble fiber which helps to lower something
called insulin resistance and cholesterol. Second,
they contain protein, vitamins and minerals.
Just one cup of beans contains 9-13 grams of sol-
uble fiber, 14-18grams of proteinwithout saturated
fat or cholesterol, and they are a good source of
iron.
They also contain a phytochemical, called sapo-
nin, whichmayhelptoinhibit the growthof cancer.
This Halloween, play some tricks yourself on
your goblins to include beans in their foods. Along
with adding them to salads, soups, and chilis, try
baking with them.
Here are two recipes to get you started. If you
want to find more, call Penn State and we will send
you the Filling up on Fiber handout.

Question #1
In 1963, John J.
Boylan completed a
project that garnered
a notoriety which
made him feel un-
comfortable. What
good deed did this
Pittston resident do?
1953 58 Years Ago
Michael Healey of Avoca added an-
other year to his tenure as an officer of
the Joseph Motiska American Legion
Post in Dupont. Healey was installed as
commanding officer for the 23rd time
since the organization of the post. Mi-
chaels service with veterans organiza-
tions began in 1921 when he formed the
Dupont Soldiers Club. In 1929, the club
was taken into the American Legion and
named after Joseph Motiska. During
World War I, Healy, serving with the
79th Division, 58th Brigade carried
orders along the front lines of the West-
ern Front in France. Joseph Motiska, a
resident of Dupont, is listed in the 1919
U.S. Bulletin as killed in action.
Leaders and Members of Boy Scout
Troop #311 wanted to help the Korean
people suffering the ravages of war.
They sponsored a clothing drive through
which they received bundles of items
they intended to send to the war torn
country.
However, at $11.40 for every 70
pounds of clothing they found it was
financially impossible. Scouts and lead-
ers decided to distribute the articles to
local institutions.
Joseph Shag Ardoline was select-
ed as best male athlete of the Pittston
High School 1949 graduating class.
While serving in the armed forces in
Japan and a member of the Signal Ser-
vice Sports Team, he received a trophy
for helping take his baseball team to a
second place finish by topping off the
season with a .350 batting average.
Ardoline entered the service in 1952.
Prior to joining he was employed by the
Pittston Publishing Company.
1963 48 Years Ago
The West Pittston School Board want-
ed to provide good wholesome recre-
ation to district students so they offered
a youth center every Saturday evening
throughout the school year. Ping-pong,
games, dancing and a place to socialize
were offered to students grades nine
through twelve.
Advisory board members were Mr.
and Mrs. Richard Jones, Mr. and
Mrs. Eugene Starna, Mr. and Mrs.
John Coleman, William D. Owens,
Elmer Weiskerger, Chester Williams
and Marjorie Green.
A $382,000 grant for the Duryea
flood control project was on the line in
1963. The Department of Forest and
Waters issued borough council an ulti-
matum that they start condemnation
procedures for properties that stood in
the way of the project. Thirty property
owners were not satisfied with the price
offered by. After the destruction of Hur-
ricane Diane in August 1955, the Duryea
Flood Control project initiated construc-
tion of a 4,800-foot levee in addition to
widening the river channel another
5,000 feet. Federal and state funds were
appropriated to complete the project.
Dial Rock Chapter of the Daughters
of the American Revolution celebrated
their 67th year with a luncheon. Regent
Mrs. Ralph Thomas addressed mem-
bers stating, Dial Rock has proudly
carried on objectives of the national
society to promote historical, patriotic
and educational endeavors.
Mrs. Corey Miller, past regent, dis-
played the DAR Citizens Handbook
presented throughout the country to
potential citizens.
According to the dar.org website
Since 1921 the DAR has compiled and
published the DAR Manual for Citizen-
ship. Over 12 million copies of this book
have been given free to immigrants
seeking American citizenship.
1973 38 Years ago
Bringing their record to 5-1the Wyom-
ing Area Warriors Football Team
tromped Lake Lehman 44-0. Running
backs Craig Pahl, Sam Sakocius and
Jackie Langan, offensive linemen Ken
Sickler, Bill Miller and Hal Allford
and tackles Joe Connors and Don
McGinnis all showed their might while
quarterback Rick DOrio had five com-
pletions in six attempts for 121 yards
including 49 yard completion to wide
receiver Dom Mazzarella.
Avoca resident Mrs. Raymond
McDonald Jr. received the American
Cancer Societys Sword trophy for her
outstanding leadership as Crusade
Chairwoman of the society fund drive.
Mrs. McDonald was successful in sur-
passing the collection goal for the area.
The sword symbol came from a 1928
nationwide poster contest sponsored by
Society and the New York City Cancer
Committee.
George E. Durant of Brooklyn won
the contest, receiving a first prize of
$500. He selected the sword to express
the crusading spirit of the movement.
The twin-serpent, which forms the han-
dle, emphasizes the medical and scien-
tific nature of the Societys work.
The intertwined serpents represent
healing of the sick and creativity of the
healthy.

no. She was looking forward to cele-
brating her 50th wedding anniversary,
but the occasion would be colored by
the fact she had lost her diamond en-
gagement ring and wedding band while
trying on jewelry at a local bazaar.
As a last ditch effort, Mary asked her
story be published in the Sunday Dis-
patch. A few days later, a box containing
the
Shag Ardoline hit .350 for an Army team in 53

We're not sure if these dancers, circa 1960, were students of Sammy Tremont or David Blight. That's Barry Finn on the end at the left and his sister Donna is next to him.
The middle three dancers are unidentified. The three on the far right, fromleft, are Susan Smiles, Carl Viola and Peggy Lou Reddington

worked for me.
The summer after Lock Haven
he was working at Boscovs and
during a break he sat down at a
word processor that was on sale.
I decided to write a paragraph
and see what happened.
What happened was the begin-
ning of a story that was the first
of 39 he would eventually write
for his book, The Lion Shares.
The book also includes eight po-
ems.
The first time in Iraq, I dont
knowif I had clarity of mind, but
the ideas came into my head and
I had to write them down. The
second time it was even more
prolific. I was writing a story a
day. The words just sort of
flowed through my head when I
was over there.
The eclectic collection of sto-
ries are all fiction though many
of them are based on his life and
written in the first person, where
Mazzarella imagines himself as
anAmishman, anBritishsubject
in India in1947, a serial killer, an
Olympic diver, a federal prison-
er, the stateside wife of a soldier
in Iraq, an apple, and a Mafia un-
derling, who writes, I was 15
whenI askedmyuncle toworkin
the family business. He was a
part-time farmer, part-time truck
driver, part-time contract killer.
Then there is the story based
on a real incident with this line:
While smoking on the third
floor balcony, I was able to take
in the view.
Not especially compelling,
until you learn the balcony is on
Saddam Husseins palace in
Bagdad.
There is no story about lions.
So whats with the title?
I always liked lions. When I
was in fourth grade I was sup-
posed to play the Cowardly Lion
in the Wizard of Oz, but my sis-
ter and I got the chicken pox.
The Lion Shares is publish-
ed by Xlibris. Order at www.xli-

Dance music reverberated
from castle-like walls, and a
strobe-light broke the shadows
into glimmers as beautiful indi-
viduals finished getting their
hair and makeup perfected. The
dancing had not yet begun, but
the music was playing. This was
not an ordinary music video
shoot, and yet, this is still a far
from ordinary day at a Pittston
beauty salon and spa.
On Sunday, Oct. 2, Sapphire
SalononSouthMainStreet host-
ed the official music video shoot
for local recording artist Nicol-
lette and her single Can You
Feel It?
However, the video shoot al-
most wasnt produced. Flooding
caused by Hurricane Irene and
then Tropical Storm Lee caused
Sapphire to postpone filming
twice. But the staff at the salon
came inonSundayexcitinglyde-
termined and focused. This was
what they were waiting for.
Sapphires owner, Angie Mor-
gan, is very familiar with un-
timely inconveniences. In March
of 2003, the original Sapphire
Salon burned down in a mid-
night fire, and, in a seemingly
destined turn of events, Angie
and her husband Larry relocated
their business to their current lo-
cation. They were looking to
turn this into a parking lot, and
tear it down, Angie said.
Their current location used to
be the old, historic Pittston Ar-
mory, a buildingthat is common-
ly known in the Greater Pittston
area as the castle.
After twoarea disasters, Angie
was confident that a music video
shoot would be an event that
would engage and deliver some-
thing rewarding and needed.
For me, as an owner, it meant a
lot. We had so many clients and
employees who just needed
something positive, Angie ex-
plained.
In the worst tragedies and sit-
uations, I think keeping a posi-
tive and strong mind gets you
through every day.
On Sunday, everything was
unquestionably positive, and it
showed, from the high-energy
choreography to the dim, burn-
ing candles and sweeping
drapes. Although there was a
controlledcrowdof people danc-
ing and a DJ mastering the ener-
gy, everything added to the per-
ception of beauty as art.
I think passion was the word
of the night, Morgan said after-
wards. Everyday we make work
fun, but that was a night where
we were able to participate in the
fun.
As a business owner, Angie is
both passionate and direct. We
want to bring versatility and cre-
ativity to the local level, she
said. I thought it was time to
touch peoples soul with beauty,
but beauty on every level. I want-
ed to target all audiences by
keeping it versatile.
Versatilityis one of the corner-
stones to the success of Sap-
phires business. Sapphire is
one-stop shopping for inner and
outer beauty, Angie said. The
biggest excitement for me is that
we affect people from the inside
out.
She verywell knows that sense
of appreciation. We try to cus-
tomize services to every clients
needs, she elaborated. We try
to do the little bells and whistles
onour services soour clients feel
appreciated.
Last weekend, Sapphire went
beyond bells and whistles to bass
and treble. The music-dance set-
ting was a unsurprisingly differ-
ent atmosphere and sound from
the gentle ambience of a regular
day at Sapphire, but on Sunday
night, they were able to do exact-
ly what they set out to do, be cre-
ative and positively energetic.
Sapphire will be using the mu-
sic video in their upcoming com-
mercial and marketing cam-
paign, and Nicollette will be us-
ing the filmas her official music
video for her recent single.
The events food was catered
by Angies parents, Angelo and
Lena, from Parentes on North
Main Street.
They are my inspiration,
Morgan gladly admitted.

A Minnesota Supreme Court ruling last summer that
essentially stripped cities of the ability to stray, even the
slightest, from property ordinances, has been rendered
moot with a new law that had passed unanimously in the
state House and Senate. The ruling had stipulated that
a variance could be issued only if there was no other
possible use for the land.

YMCA fitness instructors are
motivating members to take the
YMCA Fit to Be Tried Fitness
Class Challenge.
Fit to Be Tried starts Monday,
October 17, and runs to January
22. The annual event is held each
fall at YMCAs throughout
Northeastern Pennsylvania. The
Greater Pittston YMCA is host-
ing a Fitness Class Challenge to
mark this years event.
The challenge calls for mem-
bers to receive a Fitness Class
Challenge card. The cards are
hole-punched each time a mem-
ber takes a fitness class. After
every five classes, members are
eligible to win prizes donated by
local businesses. One member
will also win the chance to enter
the Northeast Fit to Be Tried
Grand Prize Drawing. The top
prize is a vacation.
The goal is to get members
out of their comfort zones and
try new classes, said Fitness/
Program Director Kelly
McCabe. Our fitness instruc-
tors are excited about the chal-
lenge and are here to help moti-
vate members. Many of them
started as members striving to
achieve their own fitness goals.
For Silver Sneakers Instructor
Eugene Arcudi a YMCA
member for 20 years and an avid
spin class participant group ex-
ercise has made the difference
between walking and a wheel-
chair.
I have arthritis. This keeps
me mobile and it helps my back,
she said. I asked my doctor if I
should stop exercising and he
said not unless I wanted to be in a
wheelchair.
For Water Aerobics Instructor
Mary Hoover and Spin Instruc-
tor Pete Yuritz joining the YM-
CAalso meant a better quality of
life. The duo lost more than 240
pounds combined taking fitness
classes at the YMCA.
I joined the YMCA when I
realized my health was in jeopar-
dy and I needed to lose weight,
said Hoover. When I joined, I
was quite heavy. I could hardly
walk from the parking lot to the
pool.
Hoover started her journey at
the YMCA taking water aero-
bics classes. Now, 183 pounds
lighter she is a morning water
aerobics instructor at the organi-
zation. Yuritz lost 60 pounds and
credits spinning for the majority
of the weight loss.
YMCA veteran Aerobics In-
structor Joan Tabone said it is the
motivation members get from
exercising together that make
group exercises such as success.
It is about achieving the best
that you can be; not what you see
in some picture, she said. You
need to set goals that you as a
person can achieve. The Fitness
Class Challenge is a good goal to
set.
With a wide variety of spin,
land and water aerobics classes,
McCabe assures there is some-
thingfor everyone at the YMCA.
The, Pittston organization offers
water aerobics, spin, Zumba, low
impact cardio, step aerobics,
bodysculpting, Pilates, Yoga and
Silver Sneakers classes.
And to make classes more af-
fordable, the YMCA is lowering
its membership monthly draft
rates starting today, said Execu-
tive Director Craig Lukatch.
We are here for the communi-
ty, he said. We want everyone
to be able to experience and en-
joy our facility.
The Fitness Class Challenge is
free to members. Members are
also encouraged to bring a friend
tothe YMCAfromOctober17to
October 23 free of charge.
I have been at the YMCA 25
years because I love the organi-
zation, said Tabone. It is the
humbleness of the Y that helps
people come together. We are
family here.

We are so thankful for the
help, one resident said. We

all the destruction the river left
behind makes it a bit easier to
continue on.

cuss the reimbursement and
funding for the township.
Residents of Riverview Vil-
lage Mobile Home Park were
among some of the hardest hit
during the flooding event. The
cleanup has begun within the
community under the leadership
of Hal Holidaywithassistance of
the township.
Supervisor Gadomski has had
several meetings with the new
owners and progress is being
made.
Some township residents are
complaining about two of the
five supervisors who have not
been offering assistance during
the flood cleanup.

ation Board will hold a Hallo-
ween Costume Dance on Satur-

The first of three reading of
the Dupont Borough 2012 bud-
get was presented at the October
council meeting with no antici-
pated tax increase for next year.
Projected costs for refuse is
$75 for senior citizens, $105 for
residential families and $150 for
commercial.
The budget includes a 4% sal-
ary increase across the board for
police, office employees and the
Dept. of Public Works employ-
ees including an increase in sala-
ry for council members, the tax
collector and mayor. The tenta-
tive budget increases for council
salary to $1200 per year; mayor
and council president to $1800
and the tax collector to $2500.
Mayor Daniel Lello presented
a proclamation to Avoca EMS
members Robert Evans and
Kenneth Shotwell. Mayor Lello
honored these two individuals
for the valor in helping Dupont
Sgt. Saraunk in a volatile dilem-
ma in September.
Council members discussed at
length the request for adding a
police dog to Dupont Police
Force. Insurance costs to the bor-
ough would be approximately
$450 per year for the dog with
Sgt Saranuk offering to cover all
other costs: vet care, food and
additional training. The matter
was tabled for further review.
Updates were given on con-
struction projects by Council
President Stan Knick. The pav-
ing of Rte. 315 north and south
byPennDOTis completed. Krig-
er Construction has begun the
handicap sidewalks on Lacka-
wanna and Chestnut streets and
the Leeward Construction pro-
ject by the Heidleberg breaker is
also underway. Both projects
will continue in the borough
throughout the rest of the year so
residents will still need to be
aware of delays and detours.
Borough Manager Patty
McDonald noted that the No-
vember 8 council meeting date
has been changed because the
municipal building will be used
for voting for the general elec-
tion. The meeting will be held on

ond reading of the 2012 budget

The first Holy Redeemer se-
ries set the stage for what was to
come.
The Royals threw an incom-
plete pass, followed by a run for
minus-three yards before being
sacked by Wyoming Area;s
Nick Bartoli to force a fourth-
and-18 from their two-yard
line. So when the snap to the
punter sailed out of bounds for
a safety, you could tell it was
just going to be one of those
nights for the Wyoming Valley
Conferences best defense.
The Wyoming Area defen-
sive line spent most of its night
in the Holy Redeemer back-
field, harassing the Royals into
seven sacks, five turnover-on-
downs and just 92 yards of of-
fense en route to a 44-12 victory
on Friday night at Jake Sobieski
Stadium in West Pittston.
"We wanted to attack with
some with aggressive pressure,
the key to that is getting con-
tainment," said coach Randy
Spencer. "I thought we got a
nice job from our ends Trent
Grove, Joe Taylor, Corey Pop-
ovich"
After the safety and the quick
2-0 lead, it took all of two plays
before Nick OBrien took the
QB keeper and went 36 yards
unscathed for the touchdown at
the 9:29 mark of the first quar-
ter.
After the defense forced a
turnover-on-downs, the Royals
defenders saw a lot of the War-
riors powerback, Jeff Skursky.
He took his first carry for 16
and his second for 14 down to
the Holy Redeemer 40. OBrien
took the QBkeeper and hurdled
a defender before being
dragged down after a 20-yard
gain. Finally, Skursky finished
off the four-play, 56-second
drive with a bruising 20-yard
TD run up the middle. He also,
punched in the two-point con-
version giving WA a 16-0 lead.
Justin Langdon came up with
an interception at the Holy Re-
deemer 37-yard line but on the
Warriors second play, OBrien
overthrewhis wide receiver and
the ball was picked off and re-
turned 80-yards for a touch-
down cutting the WA lead to
16-6 with 2:18 left in the first
quarter.
Things seemed like they were
going sour after the ball was
fumbled on the ensuing kick re-
turn and the Royals jumped on
it at the 47-yard line.
However, the Warrior de-
fense picked up where they left
off, forcing a turnover-on-
downs after a Ryan Filipiak and
Popovich sack.
With the ball at the Holy Re-
deemer 35, it was back to the
big man in the back field as
Skursky went for 13 then 15 to
set-up the ball on the Royals 7-
yard line. Skursky took the
handoff and trampled the Holy
Redeemer defenders for his
second score of the game, push-
ing the lead to 23-6 Wyoming
Area with 32-seconds left in the
first quarter.
Holy Redeemers next drive
went for minus-11 yards after a
Popovich sack and then a Tay-
lor sack to force the turnover-
on-downs, giving the Warriors
the ball at the Royals 39.
After a five-yard penalty on
HR, Skursky went for eight and
OBrien hit Grove for eight
down to the 18-yard line. Then,
OBrien faked the handoff and
rolled to his right, out ran the
pursuing defenders to cross the
goalline for the second time
giving Wyoming Area a 30-6
lead.
After making a play on of-
fense, OBrien stepped up on
defense when he intercepted
the pass from the HR quarter-
back and returned it nine-yards
to the 49 of the Royals.

The goal in sports is to finish
your season with more wins
than losses.
The Holy Redeemer girls
volleyball team never seems to
have a problem accomplishing
that goal.
The Royals won their 86th
consecutive Wyoming Valley
Conference match in a win over
Pittston Area on Thursday, and
ironically enough, they were
aided in that victory and in
many past victories by a three
players who hail fromthe Grea-
ter Pittston community.
Seniors Nicole Phillips and
Liz Knaub, and junior Biz Eat-
on all reside in Greater Pittston.
And according to their coach,
Holy Redeemers recent suc-
cess wouldnt have been possi-
ble without them.
They are all different, Holy
Redeemer Head Coach John
Kablick said of the three Royals
with local ties. Liz is a strict
defensive specialist, so her
passing is very good, Biz is our
setters, so her hands are very
good, her court sense is very
good and her forearms are very
good. Nicole Phillips is a mid-
dle hitter and our best blocker.
Phillips resides in Yatesville
and has played a major role for
the Royals volleyball program
for the past three seasons.
Coach Kablick calls Phillips his
best blocker and a solid middle
hitter. At 510, Phillips has six
blocks so far this season.
She is just one shy of her ca-
reer high of seven blocks in her
junior year. She is more than
just a blocker. She is also an im-
portant hitter. She has 18 kills

Not many teams in the
Wyoming Valley Conference
can throw a powerful one-two
punch at its opponents.
Pittston Area is one team that
can.
That was proven again Mon-
day, as the Patriots knocked off
Tunkhannock, 4-0, - getting two
goals and an assist from Jordan
Consagra, and a goal and an as-
sist from Pietro Colella.
The duo has combined for
122 points, with Consagras 62
and Colellas 60 ranking first
and second in the conference.
We have a beautiful connec-
tion, Consagra said about his
relationship with Colella on the
field. We read each other. He
knows what Im thinking. I
know what hes thinking. Hes
feeding me the ball. Im feeding
him the ball. Were all doing
great out there.
Consagra, who has 27 goals
and eight assists this season, got
the scoring started for the Patri-
ots, who are 9-4-1 in the WVCs
Division II. Consagra took a
pass from Ian Tracy and beat
Tunkhannock keeper Zac Da-
niels just 30 seconds into the
match for a quick 1-0 lead.
Getting a fast start is some-
thing Pittston Area has started
doing recently and did the same
thing last week against Dallas.
I think we have speed that
youre not expecting up front,
Pittston Area coach Pat
OBoyle said. Piet and Jordan,
those kids can fly so we seem to
be getting one of those early
and a little bit of momentum,
and just kind of building off of
it.
Consagra, a sophomore, re-
ceived a pass from Colella to
give his team a 2-0 lead late in
the first half. Consagra dished a
pass to Matt Tavaglione, who
found the back of the net about
a minute later for a 3-0 lead
heading into halftime.
Colella, a senior, put the fin-
ishing touches on the victory
with a tally in the second half
assisted by Chris Musto. Colella
ended the afternoon with 25
goals and 10 assists on the sea-
son.
Those staggering team num-
bers for the Patriots have cata-
pulted them near the top of the
Division II standings, trailing
just Lake-Lehman (10-3). In the
race for the three seeds in the
District 2 Class 3A tournament,
the Patriots are behind Crest-
wood (8-2), Coughlin (8-3) and
Wyoming Valley West (8-3) this
afternoon. Tunkhannock (9-6),
also 3A, would be the No. 4
seed if the playoffs started today
and would have to win a play-in
game against a Lackawanna
League team.
Were doing phenomenal. I
cant complain, Consagra add-
ed. Actions speak louder than
words and were playing up to
our standards right now. Were
going to try to give it all we
got.
The Tigers were shutout for
just the second time this season.
Senior Ryan Karnopp, who has
60 points this season (27 goals,
6 assists) was held scoreless by
a stifling Patriots defense de-
spite taking four of Tunkhan-
nocks nine shots.
PA 4, Seminary 4
Pittston Area rallied with four
unanswered goals one in the
final 30 seconds of regulation -
to tie Wyoming Seminary, 4-4,
in double overtime in a WVC
Division 2 match on Wednesday
afternoon in Kingston.
Trailing 4-0 after the first 25
minutes of play, John Kielbasa
began the Patriots comeback
with a goal at the 3:21 mark of
the first half to get PA within
4-1 on an assist from Pietro Co-
lella.
Tom Allardyce cut the deficit
in half with a goal on an Ian
Tracy assist at the 20:46 mark
of the second half, and a minute
later, Tracy scored on an assist
from Colella to get Pittston Ar-
ea within 4-3.
Jaret Monteforte then provid-
ed the dramatics, capping the
comeback with a goal on a Jor-
dan Consagra assist with 27
seconds left in regulation.

After last weeks overtime loss, Pittston
Area was looking for something to ease the
pain and get back on the right track. Instead
they got a dose of Coughlin running back
Joe Parsnik.
The senior halfback did everything but
makethePatriotsfeel goodashehadamag-
nificent gamefromtheCoughlinbackfield.
Beforethenight wasdone, herackedup297
yards and three touchdowns leading his
Crusaders to a 27-14 victory over the Patri-
ots at Charley Trippi Stadium on Friday
night.
Parsnick heated up right from the get go
as he scored the Crusaders first touchdown
of the game. On second-and-3 from the
Coughlin 28, Parsnik busted his way
through the line of scrimmage and bull-
dozed Patriot defenders in route to a 72-
yard touchdown. Coughlin added the extra
point andled7-0with2:53remaininginthe
opening quarter.
Parsnik wasnt the only threat in the
Coughlin backfield on Friday night. Junior
Nick Evans made his presence felt with
10:17 remaining in the first half when he
maneuvered his way past the line of scrim-
mage and dove into the end zone for a one-
yard touchdown rush. The Crusaders again
added the extra point and led14-0.
Things wouldnt get anybetter for thePa-
triots as quarterback Anthony Schwab ran
into some bad luck late in the first half. On
seconddownwitha long14yards togo, the
Patriots elected to go to the air. Schwab hit
Joe Starinsky in stride with a perfect spiral
but the ball went through Starinskys hands
andfoundnoneother thanParsnikfor anin-
terception at the Coughlin 27-yard line.
Rather than just go down and make sure
hedidnt fumble, Parsniksawthelight at the
endof thetunnel. ParsnickreturnedtheINT
7-3 yards for yet another Coughlin touch-
down as the Crusaders took a 21-0 lead
close to intermission.
The Patriots showed some offensive life
when they took the ball over after the score.
Pittston Area drove all the way down to
the Coughlin 34-yard line after Schwab
foundtight endBrianDelaneyfor a16-yard
reception and a Patriots first down. Howev-
er, with 29.7 seconds remaining until the
half, Schwabs pass was intercepted by
Coughlin senior defensive back Frank
Mahmoud.
Coughlin was unable to score given the
long field and the short amount of time and
headed into the locker room with a 21-0
lead.
Parsnik picked up right where he left off
by finding the end zone for the third time
with6:18remaininginthethirdquarter. The
touchdown was another lengthy rush as he
traveled 39 yards, weaving his way in and
out of Patriot defenders and into the end
zone. The Crusaders failed to complete the
extra point, but they still led 27-0 with time
running out for the Patriots.
ThePatriots finallyfoundsomeoffensive
life late in the third quarter. Schwab com-
pleted four straight passes to a combination
which included Jordan Houseman, Evan
Hahn and Marc Romanczuk. The Patriots
drive eventually ended in a punt, but it gave
the Patriots some offensive momentum for
the first time in the ball game.
The also gained some momentum when
Starinsky made a brilliant defensive play
earlyinthefourthquarter, comingupwitha
key interception to set up the Patriots in
great field position.
On first-and-10 from the 36-yard line
Schwab found Hahn for a 21-yard recep-
tion. The play looked as if it was only going
togofor about14yards, but Hahnrefusedto
be taken down as he went for seven yards
after the catch.
Later in the drive, Schwab found his star
receiver Houseman for a 12-yard touch-
downreception. Chris Mustodrilledthe ex-
tra point, but the Patriots still trailed 27-7
with just 7:42 remaining in regulation.
Coughlin continued to keep the ball on
the ground and kill the clock. With a big
lead in the game and faced with a fourth-
and-10, the Crusaders still elected to go for
the first down. They went to air and to the
endzone, but it didnt endwell for Coughlin
as Patriots senior cornerback Mike Stan-
koski intercepted the pass in the end zone
went105yards downthefar sidelinefor one
of the longest touchdown plays in Pittston
Area history.
The Patriots were called for unsports-
manlike conduct, which meant Musto
would have to split the uprights from 35
yards in order to get the seven points for the
touchdown. The long extra point was no
problem for Musto as he kicked it right
down the center with plenty of distance.
However, it was too little, too late for the
Patriots as they dropped the contest by a
score of 27-14.
Schwab completed 12 of his passes for
124yards, whileRomanczukledtheground
attack as he went for 70 yards on10 carries.
Hahn was the leading receiver for the Patri-
ots as he caught four passes for 36 yards.
The schedule remains tough, as the Patri-
ots will take the long bus ride to Crispin
Field in Berwick to take on the Bulldogs
who have won four straight this Friday
night.

team played like a team that is
ready to be champions of the
present.
In front of players and coaches
from the 1961 Eastern Confer-
ence Championship team on
Homecoming Weekend in Old
Forge, the Big Blue Wrecking
Crew dominated every facet of
the game in a 37-6 shellacking
of Lackawanna Trail in an im-
portant Lackawanna Football
Conference Division III game at
Veterans Memorial Stadium on
Friday night.
The Blue Devils defense set
the tone early, forcing a three-
and-out series to open the game
as defensive end Cory Stuart
and linebacker Jorden Sekol
made big stops as Old Forge
swarmed to the Lions bruising
rushing combination of Mar-
vess Rosiak and Eric Laytos.
We said just swarm the ball,
put hats on the ball, said Old
Forge Head Coach Mike Schu-
back. We wanted five hats on
the ball every time they ran it.
Their offense feeds off Eric
(Laytos). If you let him run the
ball in their offense you are in
trouble. But if you swarm him
and get him on the ground,
youll have an easier time.
Old Forge (5-2 overall, 2-0
LFC) gave the ball right back af-
ter a three-and-out, but Sekol
came up with two more stops on
the ensuing Trail possession and
the Lions were forced to punt
again.
Fromthere the Blue Devils of-
fense went into high gear.
Colin Carey capped a 12-play,
80-yard drive with a 35-yard
touchdown run down the vis-
itors sideline one play after Dave
Argust turned a high snap on a
punt formation into an 11-yard
gain to give Old Forge a first
down. Matt Mancuso drilled the
first of five extra-points on the
night and the Blue Devils led 7-0
with 2:39 left in the first quarter.
The defense held Trail (5-2
overall, 0-2 LFC) again to just
three downs and punt, but Carey
fumbled the ball on Old Forges
next play while trying to avoid
pressure from the Lions. On the
next play, Rosiak went 48 yards
on an inside reverse to get the
pre-season favorites within 7-6
when the extra point snap was
botched.
The Blue Devils again went
on a methodical drive, reeling
off 12 plays to go 76 yards before
Carey found paydirt with 6:53
left in the quarter for the 14-6
lead.
The drive was fueled by the
running of senior Lou Febbo and
junior Brian Tomasetti. Febbo
carried four times for 22 yards
and caught the only pass attempt
of the drive slipping into the
flats for a 16-yard gain and To-
masetti ran four times for 15
yards. The duo combined to
rush for 163 yards on 25 carries
with Febbo going over the 100-
yard mark with 111 yards. All
told, Old Forge rushed for a sea-
son-high 415 yards on the night
a credit to its quickly develop-
ing line of Joey Bruno, Paul Pa-
pi, Tyler Clark, Anthony Trotta
and Ryan Paulish.
Its funny. They all went to
dinner last night, all the line-
man, and it was something neat
because they are really gelling
together, said Schuback. They
are taking a sense of pride in
what they are doing and they are
enjoying it. No one knows their
names except us and they are
just getting it done.
The Blue Devils defense con-
tinued to get it done, stopping
the Lions on three plays after
Rosiak and Laytos combined for
12 yards to pick up Trails first,
first down of the game. Then on
third-and-7, Carey electrified

Sometimes bad memories are
hard to get rid of and the best we
could hope for is to have learned
something from them. Take for
example a bad experience of fall-
ing out of a tree stand during a
deer hunt. That would probably
be forever imbedded deep into
the pages of your memory and
take it frompersonal experience,
it is. There are several things that
remind me about my tree stand
hunting accident from a few
years ago. I think about it every
time I walk by a rickety old
wooden tree stand. My incident
took place when my daughter
Kristen and I were hunting out of
a well maintained wooden tree
stand. I leaned on a board that
wasnt designed to take the
weight and the next thing I know
I was in the ambulance wearing a
neck brace and an air splint on
my arm.
I also think about that day ev-
erytime I lookat the sixinchscar
on my forearm. Hidden under-
neath the skin is a two inch by six
inch steel plate holding the two
bones together in my arm. I can
now forecast the weather on any
given day by the aching associat-
ed with a storm front. There is
one thing for certain. I have
learnedalot fromthat experience
and this week was a true test.
Armed with my bowand arrow, I
headed into the field for a deer
hunt. Myclimbingtree standwas
strappedtomybackwithmysup-
ply bag hanging from it. I was
heading to an area that my previ-
ous scoutingtrips convincedme I
should hunt. Once at my location
I started strapping my tree stand
to the tree, tied my pack and bow
to a hoist rope and prepared my-
self for a climb. Thats when it hit
me, I had my first fifties moment
of the season. After all the plan-
ning and carrying I realized I had
forgotten my tree stand safety
body harness.
Years ago I might have tried to
jimmy rig a strap from a piece of
rope andthe belt frommypants. I
might have even climbed up
without one at all. But the older
much wiser Don Jacobs declared
those notions tobe stupidandun-
safe. I simply took everything off
the tree, hid it under some brush
and hunted from the ground in-
stead. They say that experience is
the best teacher but I hope that
anyone reading this will learn
frommy mistakes of the past and
practice safety and common
sense first. It is more important
to return home safe and sound
rather than playing Russian rou-
lette with your life.
The early deer hunting seasons
are now in full swing. There are
four weeks left tothearcherysea-
son. Yesterday started a week-
long antlerless deer muzzleload-
er seasonandthis Thursdayis the
start of a three day antlerless sea-
son for youth and senior hunters.
I for one will be spending a lot of
time in a tree stand over the next
few weeks in hopes of filling an
antlerless deer tagor harvestinga
trophy buck. I have collected a
few safety tips to follow if you
plan on hunting out of a tree this
season.
The first tip I can offer from
personal experience is to check
out everything screwed too and
attached to your tree stand. Be
sure that all straps are in strong
working order and the welds
holding the stand together are
sturdy and without cracks. Here
are a few safety tips for bowhun-
ters and tree stand climbers pro-
vided by the Pennsylvania Game
Commission.
Make sure someone knows
where youre hunting and when
youexpect toreturnhome. Leave
a note or topographic map with
your family or a friend. Pack a
cellular telephone for emergen-
cies.
Always use a fall-restraint de-
vice - preferably a full-body har-
ness - when hunting from a tree-
stand. Wear the device from the
moment you leave the ground
until you return. Dont climb
dead, wet or icy trees. Stay on the
ground on blustery days.
Get in good physical condition
before the season starts. Fatigue
can impact judgment, coordina-
tion and reaction time, as well as
accuracy. Staying physically fit
makes a difference.
Always carry a whistle to sig-
nal passersbyinthe event yoube-
come immobile. A compass and
matches or lighter and tinder also
are essential survival gear items
to have along. An extra flashlight
bulb also can be helpful.
Use a hoist rope to lift your
bow and backpack to your tree-
stand. Tryingtoclimbwitheither
will place you at unnecessary
risk.
Dont sleep in a tree-stand! If
you cant stay awake, return to
the ground.
Always carry broadhead-
tipped arrows in a protective
quiver.
If you use a mechanical re-
lease, always keep your index
finger away from the trigger
when drawing.
Followthe manufacturers rec-
ommendations for all equipment
and check your equipment be-
fore each use.
Practice climbing with your
tree-stand before dawn on the
opening day of the season. Con-
sider placing non-slip material
on the deck of your tree-stand if
its not already there.
Safety is also a concern on the
ground. Remember that hunters
must wear a minimum of 250
square inches of fluorescent or-
ange while small game hunting.
This is also true for deer hunters
during this week of the early
muzzleloader season and youth/
senior antlerless season. Many
sportsmen will be out and about
since there are plenty of other
things to hunt for this week. The
woodcock, duck, grouse and
squirrel seasons are all opennow.
The general small game season
including rabbits and pheasants
open next Saturday, October 22.
The fall turkeyseasonbegins one
week later on Saturday, October
29. Its all happening now. I wish
you a memorable and productive
hunt and by all means dont for-
get safety.
Be sure to watch Pennsylvania
Outdoor Life tonight at 6:30 on
WNEP-TV. Well take you to a
youth pheasant hunt held right
here in our area and well update
you on the statewide pheasant
restoration programunderway in
parts of the state. Have a great
day!

OF 2, Lakeland 8

the defending LSL Division 3 champs. But in the
end, Lakeland had too much firepower as the Blue
Devils fell, 8-2, on Senior Parents Night on Tues-
day at Old Forge Veterans Memorial Stadium.
The Blue Devils took a 1-0 lead when Bobby
Cipollina threaded the needle with a blast through
traffic and past Lakeland goalie Scott Cortes on a
touch from J Argonish from about 15 yards away
at the 17:18 mark. Old Forge had a chance to go
ahead by two goals, but Cortes was able to stop an
Argonish shot from the top right corner of the box
less than a minute later.
The Chiefs answered the Old Forge flurry with
three goals in less than seven minutes, beginning
with a goal by James Blevins at the 20:48 mark of
the first half.
Down 3-1, Argonish had a chance to get the
Blue Devils within a goal right before halftime
but was denied on a penalty kick by Cortes. Thir-
ty seconds later, Lakeland scored to go ahead 4-1
with less than a minute remaining before inter-
mission.
Argonish finally found the back of the next
with 18 minutes left in the game on a blast from
20 yards out on the left side of the pitch, depos-
iting the ball into the right corner past Cortes to
get Old Forge within 5-2.
But Lakeland finished strong with three goals
between the 62nd and 69th minutes to finish the
game off.
Corey Washington made some strong saves in
goal for the Blue Devils, stopping 11 shots while
being peppered by the high-powered Lakeland of-
fense.

so far this season and had 39 as a junior.
In addition to her blocks and kills, she
also has two digs this season.
I like hitting and blocking the best,
Phillips said. My favorite memory is
when we had game point against Crest-
wood last year and I won the game with
a kill. It was so exciting.
Phillips wouldnt have 18 kills this
season if it were not for her junior setter
Biz Eaton of West Wyoming. This year
marks the second year as a member of
the Royals for Eaton. Prior to attending
Holy Redeemer, she was a student at
Wyoming Area. Since coming to Holy
Redeemer, Eaton has made a huge im-
pact as setter. Last season she had 16
assists and seven digs. However, one
year can make a huge difference and it
did for Eaton.
Setting is a lot of work, Eaton said.
Its especially a lot of running. It really
just has to do with your hands and
youre positioning of setting.
So far in 2011, Eaton has a whopping
220 assists as the teams primary setter
and 29 digs. Perhaps all of the assists are
due to the chemistry she has developed
with her teammates.
I love it when Biz sets me, Phillips
said. She is such an awesome setter and
we have great chemistry on the court.
All the action starts with Liz Knaub
of West Wyoming. She is the teams de-
fensive specialist, meaning she is re-
sponsible for making a good first pass.
Its always rewarding when you get a
really good pass, because everything
starts with a pass, Knaub said. If you
dont have a good pass, you cant run
any plays.
The closest the Royals came to drop-
ping a match came against Delaware
Valley. It was the only match this season
which went more than the minimum of
three games.
We had a very close match with De-
laware Valley that went four games,
Kablick said. That was the only game
we lost all season. In games played, we
are 46-1 this year.
Having three players with such great
chemistry is a real strength for the Roy-
als and as long as the three are on the
same page, Holy Redeemer will be a
tough team to beat.
There have been many times when
Liz would give a great first pass to Biz
and then Biz will set Phillips and she
will get the kill, Kablick said. I think
three hours a day in the gym really helps
them to develop some great chemistry.
PA 0, Holy Redeemer 3
Pittston Area played the next victim
to WVCpowerhouse Holy Redeemer on
Thursday afternoon, falling 3-0, as the
Royals won their 86 straight WVC
match at the Thomas R. Kelly Gymnasi-
um in Yatesville.
Liz Knaub had nine service points to
lead HR in the 25-9, 25-9, 25-5 win.
PA 0, North Pocono 3
Pittston Area lost its matchup with
WVC Volleyball power North Pocono,
3-0, on Tuesday afternoon in Moscow.
The Patriots lost 25-6, 25-15, 25-12.
WA 1, Lake-Lehman 3
Wyoming Area gave its best effort of
the season, but it was still not enough
against once-beaten Lake-Lehman as
the Lady Warriors dropped a 3-1 deci-
sion to the Lady Knights in a WVC Di-
vision 3 Volleyball match on Monday
afternoon in the Back Mountain.
The young Wyoming Area squad gave
Lehman all it could handle, winning the
second game 25-21 to knot the match up
at 1-1. But the Lady Warriors couldnt
get past the Lady Knights in the third
game, losing a tight one, 25-23. Lehman
then walked away in the fourth game
with a 25-13 victory.
Kate Kross led the Lady Warriors
with eight kills and six service points to
go with three digs.
Gabby Bohan added seven kills for
WA, and Audrey Hiedacavage regis-
tered 22 assists and 10 service points.
STREAK
Continued from Page 51
the crowd.
Stepping up in the pocket to
survey the field at about his own
25-yard line, the senior signal
caller took off up the middle of
the field and picked up the first
down. But Carey wasnt done.
After getting by the first wave of
defenders to the Old Forge 40,
the first-year starter turned on
his jets and went the distance,
sprinting between Trail defend-
ers all the way to the endzone for
the 76-yard touchdown and a
21-6 lead with 2:46 left before
intermission. Carey who was
also named Homecoming King
at halftime - finished the night
with144 yards rushing on11car-
ries, and also threw for 114
yards.
I saw Colin run the other
night in practice and no one was
near him, said Schuback who
won his 73rd game in his 10th
year of coaching his alma mater.
I think hes actually faster than
Malkolm (Blackshear). Hes the
fastest kid I have coached.
But more than that, Im
proud of him. Hes a senior and
hes paid his dues. As a quarter-
back it is tough to sit and wait
your turn, but he is a kid with
great character and patience,
and its paying off for him right
now. We are doing well because
of his patience. It shows the rest
of the team the rewards you can
reap as a senior.
Another senior got in on the
act when Argust intercepted
Zach Goodrichs third-down
pass on the ensuing possession
to set up Old Forge at their own
39. After a five-yard penalty on
the Blue Devils for illegal proce-
dure, Carey hit Argust in stride
for a 66-yard scoring strike, and
a 28-6 lead with 1:46 left in the
second quarter.
We ran a deep post to Dave,
and another deep post on the
back side to Elijah, said Schu-
back of the call. They jumped
the wheel route by Vieira and it
left Dave open. Hes another
great player and was waiting to
break out. We cant win without
Dave on the field. Hes a helluva
an athlete. He told us to run him
on the post and we hit it.
Old Forge had one more shot
to add to its lead in the first half
when Sekol recovered a fumble
at the Trail 25, but a holding
penalty nullified a 25-yard
touchdown run by Febbo, and
the Lions held the Blue Devils to
go into the locker room down
28-6.
The Blue Devils opened the
second half with a six-play drive
to the Lions 10-yard line on a17-
yard run by Febbo, and a 35-
yard scamper by Tomasetti. But
a fumble on second down gave
the ball to Trail at its own 10.
Three plays later the Lions
were forced to punt, and after a
high snap allowed the Old Forge
defense to jailbreak into the end-
zone, Trail punter Pete Murazzi
stepped on the line in the back of
the endzone for a safety before
Jake Manetti blocked the kick.
The safety was the only score
of the third quarter, and the Blue
Devils led 30-6 heading into the
final stanza.
On their final possession of
the game, Old Forge scored
again as Febbo busted through
the right side of the line and
sprinted 42 yards down the
home sideline and into the end-
zone for the final touchdown.
We practiced really hard this
week and my biggest fear was
that we left it on the practice
field because we went really
hard and got after each other on
Wednesday. Physically and
mentally. We had a really hyped
up practice, said Schuback.
We didnt get an ounce of re-
spect all year. The only way to
get respect is to win. We had to
beat them. They were state
ranked last week. We want to be
state ranked. Thats where we
want our program to be. The
kids put the time in. The coaches
put the time in. We think we de-
serve it. But the only way to do
that is to win.
Old Forge goes on the road
Friday night, traveling to
Throop to take on Mid Valley.
The Spartans have won four of
their last five games and are also
2-0 in the LFC Division III.
ROAR
Continued from Page 54
After a Popovich six-yard
carry, he got the ball again and
burst through the line for 14-
yards before slipping while try-
ing to make a cut. Two plays
later, Popovich got the ball
again and once again burst into
the Royals secondary, this
time he used the stiffarm to
help him gain 22-yards to the
HR five. Two plays later,
OBrien rolled right and lofted
an easy pass to a wide-open
Grove in the back of the end-
zone for a 37-6 lead with 31
seconds left in the half.
After the Warriors recovered
the Royals onside kick to start
the half, they drove to the 29-
yard line before stalling, giving
HR the ball at their own 23-
yard line.
Two plays later, Dylan Pegg
came up with the Warriors third
interception of the night, but
the Warriors offense stalled
again as the rain poured down.
The snap sailed over OBriens
head on the punt attempt and
Holy Redeemer recovered it at
the Warrior 18-yard line.
However, the defense helped
pick up the offensive miscue
when after an incomplete pass,
Popovich came up with a sack
and then stopped the screen
pass for minus-seven forcing a
fourth-and-25. The defensive
front put pressure on the Royals
quarterback forcing an inten-
tional grounding call and yet
another turnover-on-downs.
Ahmad Bouie took the first
play of the drive for six, before
OBrien ripped off a 15-yard
carry which could have been
much more if he didnt trip over
one of his own players. Regard-
less, the next play went 30-
yards for a touchdown via the
legs of Nick OBrien pushing
the lead to 44-6 with 4:07 left in
the third quarter.
With 41 seconds left in the
third quarter, the WA defense
gave up their first points on a
blown coverage allowing the
Royals to cut the lead to 44-12.
Jordan Zezza came up with a
big interception in the endzone
with eight minutes left, giving
the Warriors the ball and allow-
ing them to kill most of the
clock.
"We feel pretty good about
our match ups upfront and we
wanted to let them to do some
work tonight," said Spencer.
"Skurskys a young back, com-
bined with the effort of our line,
fullback and tight end, they did
a great job running the ball"
The Warriors will face GAR
on Saturday night at Wilkes-
Barre Memorial Stadium in a
showdown for not only first
place in the Wyoming Valley
Conference Class 2A/A stand-
ings, but also in the race for the
top seed in the District 2 Class
2A playoffs.

Answer #1
Known as a quiet fellow,
John J. Boylan of 84 Carroll
Street, Pittston, or Jack, as he
was called by those who knew
him well, did not want any
recognition for a time-consum-
ing project he completed for the
Pittston Police Department. The
World War II Marine Corps
veteran was recognized by the
corps for his fine handwriting
and printing skills.
He, therefore, was the perfect
candidate to meticulously print
the names as sharp as a print-
ing press of former police
department members on photos
lining the walls of the station.

OBITUARIES
Michael J.
McClernon,
39, of West
Pittston,
passed away
Wednesday,
September
28, 2011, at Hahnemann Uni-
versity Hospital, Philadel-
phia.
Born in Monticello, NY,
May 2, 1972, he was a son of
the late Fredrick and Helen
(McCloskey) McClernon.
Mike was a 1991 graduate of
Pittston Area High School,
and he was employed at the
Tobyhanna Army Depot.
Mike was a Golden Glove
boxer and was trained by his
very good friend Irish Gene
Reed. He loved the Washing-
ton Redskins, Notre Dame
Football and the New York
Yankees.
The condition of Michaels
heart may have been the
source of his passing, but de-
spite its weakness, his heart
was a vast and expansive ter-
rain within which he loved
deeply and connected with
others in profound ways. At
the core of his heart was his
family, especially his beloved
wife, Gena, and their dog,
Britney. He fondly referred to
them as his two favorite
girls.
Gena and Michael shared a
rare, special and beautiful
bond. They were together for
nine years and just married in
November of 2010. Words
cannot convey the depth with
which Gena will miss her hus-
band.
Michael was blessed to
forge and sustain many close
friendships. Memories of his
smile will live on, and he will
be remembered by his friends
as a person who possessed a
truly genuine spirit, a heart of
gold and as someone who
deeply valued his close rela-
tionships.
Michael had an incredible
voice and performed in many
local rock bands. He was
committed to using the gift of
his voice to serve others and
did so by singing for numer-
ous fundraisers.
Michaels generosity will,
quite literally, live on in the
lives of others. He was fierce-
ly committed to organ dona-
tion, and following his death,
he gave of himself by do-
nating his organs to The Gift
of Life Foundation.
His life may have been
short-lived, but Michael lived
robustly and fully. His life
will be a source of steady in-
spiration to those who knew
and loved him.
In addition to his parents,
his brother, Fred McClernon,
preceded him in death.
In addition to his wife, Ge-
na (Raymond) McClernon,
and his beloved dog, Britney;
his brother, Richard of MSB,
Fla.; stepfather James Slusark
of Duryea; parents-in-law,
Gene and Lori Raymond of
West Wyoming; sisters-in-
law, Jessica Houck and Mia
Raymond; brother-in-law Jim
Houch; nephew Liam Houch;
niece Chantel Coolbaugh;
great nephew Sullivan; uncle
and aunt, Richard and Ronda
McClernon; cousins, Kelly
McClernon and Jennifer Co-
laianni; as well as numerous
cousins and friends also sur-
vive him.
Funeral services will were
held Oct. 3 with a Mass of
Christian Burial at Holy Trin-
ity Church, Swoyersville,
with Father Joseph Pisaneschi
officiating.
Memorial contributions
may be made to the family of
Michael McClernon, 714 Exe-
ter Ave., West Pittston, 18643.
Online condolences may be
made towww.kiesingerfuner-
alservices.com.

eral Hospital surrounded by her
family. She was married to Mi-

Mr. and Mrs. Robert Charney
50th anniversary
Halloween used to proudly
wear the mantle as the premium
October sweet spot. Within the
last decade, however, it has been
replacedbysomethingmore mo-
mentous and vital; October is
now best known as Breast Can-
cer Awareness Month.
You cannot swing a pink Slin-
ky without hitting an itemin this
hue in honor of raising breast
cancer awareness. There are pink
nail polish, toasters, lipstick,
stamps, yogurt, blenderseven
toenail clippers! The list of prod-
ucts adorned with the ubiquitous
pink ribbon is endless.
The genesis of the army of
pink ribbons for the cause began
in 1991 when the Susan G. Ko-
man Foundation distributed
them at a race for breast cancer
survivors.
In the years since, there is not
another cause that is so closely
associated with a color. The As-
sociated Press recently reported
that there may be an over-satura-
tion of pink-ribboned tie-ins
these days, perhaps causing con-
fusion and disinterest in the
cause.
With that said, many believe
that there is no such thing as neg-
ative publicity for a disease that
accounts for over 42,000 deaths
a year.
That means if it takes you 13
minutes to read this newspaper,
one woman has died from breast
cancer.
There is an enormous level of
support and a high level of fun-
draising efforts to benefit the
search for a cure for breast can-
cer in Greater Pittston. But none
may be as touching as the recent
Breast Cancer Awareness Fun-
draiser sponsored by the Pittston
Area Martin L. Mattei Middle
School.
Kevin Booth, assistant princi-
pal, has spearheaded this cam-
paign two years in a rowin order
to benefit the Susan G. Koman
Foundation, both at the student
level and the community level.
Realizing that the seeds of phi-
lanthropy and empathy should
be planted at a young age, Booth
decided the students should par-
ticipate in a unique fundraising
effort this year: to design a T-
shirt, complete with a powerful
slogan, for the purpose of elevat-
ing awareness and compassion
of this cause.
Last year, I thought of the slo-
gan myself, which was I Pink I
Can, I Pink I Can to be dis-
played on the T-shirt, Booth
said. We raisedclose to$500.00
by selling those shirts. This year,
I wanted the students to have a
larger input, so we came-up with
the idea for themto create every-
thing design to slogan. We are
optimistic that we will far sur-
pass our funds fromlast year and
hopefully collect closer to
$1000.00 this October.
To further encourage students
to encompass the cause, Booth
said, On October 28, we are al-
lowing our students to enjoy a
special dress-down day. Any stu-
dent who purchased a pink
breast cancer t-shirt is encour-
aged to wear it that day, along
with jeans.
The top 10 designs were cho-
sen and the students were asked
to use their lunch period to vote
for their favorite design. Several
laptop computers were posi-
tioned in the school lobby for
this voting process to take place.
The winner, by more than 200
votes, was freshman, Morgan
Clark. Morgan, a member of the
PA field hockey team, created a
simple, yet impactful design
with the slogan: PINKPOSITI-
VENever Quit.
Morgan received a $100 Visa
Gift Card for her winning de-
sign.
These T-shirts will be on sale
at the Martin L. Mattei Middle
School throughout the month of
October. Anyone can purchase a
shirt by stopping into the school
office during regular school
hours. Cost of the T-shirts is $10
and profits from that purchase
will be donated to the Susan G.
Koman Foundation.
Through efforts such as this
one, Susan G. Koman, founded
in 1982, has contributed $685
million to breast cancer research
and $1.3 million to community
programs that assist with mam-
mograms, transportation and
other needs.
Of this fundraiser, Principal
Patrick Bilbow commented, At
the Martin L. Mattei Middle
School we want to prepare our
students for success, not only in
the classroom, but also for suc-
cess in life. We want them to be
smart, productive, caring and
contributing members of their
school and their community. I
along with Mr. Booth, my assist-
ant principal, and our staff, take
great pride in seeing our students
make such great efforts to help
others.
I commend our entire student
body and their families as well as
our staff for their outstanding
support of this important fun-
draiser. Jackie Robinson once
said: a life is not important ex-
cept in the impact it has on other
lives. This is the type of thingwe
want our students to understand.
Mr. Booth did an outstanding job
working with our students and
our winner Morgan Clark on this
project.
Morgan Clark said, I know
that there are so many women
who have breast cancer. Every
single one of them has a guardi-
an angel watching over them, so
there is always hope. They need
to have faith and Pink Positive.
Pittston Area eighth-grade students vote for their favorite t-shirt
design in the school lobby.

Pittston/Route 315 First Na-
tional Community Bank helps
collect 1,400 lbs. of food for lo-
cal program. FNCB announce
the collection of more than 2,300
non-perishable food items for
the Commission on Economic
Opportunity (CEO) to help com-
bat child hunger in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
The items were collected at
their 21 branches in Lackawan-
na, Luzerne, Wayne and Monroe
counties for CEOs Backpack
Program. The Backpack Pro-
gram is an emergency food as-
sistance program designed espe-
cially for kids. Children who are
hungry are able to access non-
perishable food for themselves
and their siblings for the week-
end or other times school is not
in session. The food is placed in
a backpack for the student to car-
ry home, removing the stigma a
child might experience with car-
rying home a bag of groceries.
The idea to help CEO was the
result of FNCBs Professional
Development Program. The Pro-
fessional Development Program
is a year-long course, coordinat-
ed by Wilkes-University, which
focuses on developing leader-
ship skills and teamwork. Partic-
ipants in the program were re-
quired to form teams and design
Social Cyclical Awareness
(SCA) projects, all of which are
aimed at meeting specific needs
in the local community. In addi-
tion, FNCB teams have devel-
oped projects to help other com-
munity organizations including,
the Hazleton Animal Shelter,
Osterhout Free Library and Hab-
itat for Humanity of Lackawan-
na County.

Stand Tall Club tackles Red
Ribbon week
By: Brittany Mudlock
Planning for Red Ribbon
Week is in full swing at the Pitt-
ston Area High School. Red
Ribbon week is held to com-
memorate the death of Enrique
Kiki Camarena.
Camarena had grown up with
hopes and dreams of making a
difference. He worked his way
through college, served in the
marines and as a police officer,
and then he made the decision
to join the U.S. Drug Enforce-
ment Administration.
The DEA sent Camarena to
work undercover in Mexico to
investigate a major drug cartel.
On February 7, 1985, the 37-
year old Enrique S. Camarena
left his office to meet with his
wife for lunch. Five men ap-
peared at his side and pulled
him into a vehicle. His body
was found one month later, after
he was cruelly tortured to death.
Weeks after Camarena died,
his Congressman, Duncan Hun-
ter, and his high school friend,
Henry Lozano, launched what
we know as Red Ribbon Week.
Red Ribbon week is a campaign
to stop drug use. Many wear the
red satin ribbons as a pledge to
stay drug free.
Mrs. Turco, the moderator of
the Stand Tall Club, is hosting
Red Ribbon week. This years
Red Ribbon week starts on Oc-
tober 23 and runs throughout
the week. Kristen Santey, a ju-
nior at Pittston Area high school
and a first time member of
Stand Tall Club said, Red Rib-
bon Week shows the students to
take a stand against drugs and
how important it is to keep their
lives clean.

bon.org/about/.
