Allen Township Supervisors Consider request from PennDOT
By KERI LINDENMUTHThe Allen Township Board of Supervisors met on Tuesday, April 11 to discuss several topics, including the Howertown Road bridge replacement project, tentatively set to begin on May 1. PennDOT contacted Township Manager Ilene Eckhart requesting space for a modular trailer to house staff during the project and a porta -
ble toilet. This location, stressed Eckhart, would be reserved for staff meetings and not used for material storage.
PennDOT offered compensation to use a portion of the fire company’s parking lot to house this trailer, starting at $500/ month. PennDOT will be responsible for supplying temporary electricity to the facility.
Supervisor Gary Behler asked
why PennDOT could not use an existing property closer to the construction site. However, engineer Stan Wojciechowski explained that PennDOT contracts are very specific, so an existing site may not meet all their requirements. Should the township move forward, it would follow zoning
At age 15, he worked part time at St. Mary’s Villa Nursing Home, where he would later be a cook and supervisor. The wage rate was $11 an hour.
Mr. Burrier enrolled at Penn State University and earned a degree in operations management. This degree opened many employment opportunities. His employment profile has led to numerous job experiences working for A.W.I. Foods, Turkey Hill, with supervisor positions at K&B Toys, Miracle Logistics, Jetson Mail Services and Tru Valu.
Ken’s cement career started at Buzzi Unicem in Stockertown as a laboratory technician for eight years. He brought these skills to Lafarge, now Holcim Cement.
He said, “I work with Jason Rock and Danny Marcks in the lab; they are excellent co-workers. The lab does physical and chemical tests to help produce quality cement. We stress safety, always looking to upgrade products.”
With a smile, Ken said, “I enjoy my job. There are always new challenges and problems to solve. There is a very positive attitude in the plant.”
Mr. Burrier spent more than 20 years coaching basketball in both
the Nazareth community and Blue Eagles basketball leagues. Ken has a very friendly personality, is a dedicated cement worker and takes pride in his job. He is proud of sons, Chris and Lance, and daughter, Kendre. They reside in Nazareth. We wish Mr. Burrier and all our friends at the century-old Cementon plant a safe and prosperous 2023.

requirements for a temporary structure permit. This permit is granted in six-month terms and is renewable twice before it must come before the Board of Supervisors. The township would also facilitate a short-term lease agreement with PennDOT to ensure the township is not liable for any damage.
Supervisors approved a motion to allow Eckhart to enter into further discussions with PennDOT.
In other news, supervisors approved a traffic count and video surveillance project for Mud Lane, Kohls Road, and Millrace Road. Eckhart requested this study due to the potential impact that the upcoming Howertown Road and Indian Trail Road bridge replacement projects may have on local roads, especially Mud Lane. This report would also provide a baseline in case the township must file any damage claims.
Though official detours are in place to keep heavy traffic off these local roads, township representatives understand that modern GPS systems do not typically follow detours.
“Technology makes official detours not so official,” Eckhart said.
Supervisors unanimously approved this study. The township’s engineering firm, Barry Isett & Associates, will conduct the report at an estimated cost of $3,600.

Local coach Charged with Institutional Sexual Assault
By HOME NEWS STAFFOn Thursday, April 13, District Attorney Houck announced sexual assault charges against 26-year-old Hannah Marth for her involvement with a 17-year-old male student.
Marth, of Walnutport, is facing charges of Institutional Sexual Assault, and Sexual Assault by a Sports Official, both felonies of the third degree.
In May 2021, Marth was a javelin coach for the Northampton Area High School Track and Field team. The 17-year-old victim was a student and active participant in the track and field program.
Investigation by Pennsylva -
nia State Police determined the defendant and victim were involved in a sexual relationship.
On May 22, 2021 at approximately 2 a.m., Marth texted the victim and invited him to her residence in Lehigh Township, Northampton County, where Marth initiated sexual contact with the victim.
In an interview with police, Marth confessed to having romantic involvement with the victim in May 2021. When police interviewed the victim, the victim related that he and Marth were in a relationship that lasted until October 2022.
“A trusted relationship between a student athlete, an athlete’s parent, and a coach can be a vulnerable one. An abuse of that relationship shows a coach’s blatant disregard for the well-being of those she or he coached, and above all – the law. This defendant defied that trust when she committed this alleged crime against the victim,” District Attorney Houck said.

Suburban Darts
Lehigh Valley Championship
After a few years off for the pandemic we resume playing the Lehigh Valley Championship for
the 65th time. This year we find the ‘City League Champs’ Bethany playing the ‘Suburban League Champs’ Dryland. In the ‘Best of 5 games,’ it was Dryland coming out on top to win the ‘Lehigh Valley Championship’ in 5 games (their third overall).
Game 1- With Larry Golick and Bernie Yurko giving Dryland a 1-0 lead in the top of the first, Bethany came back scoring 3 runs
in the bottom of the first on hits from Jeff Walever, Dan Sabetti, Steve Tarasuk, and John Hottenstein. Jim Goldman tied the game in the second inning with a 2 run HR. Bethany scored a run in the fourth inning and another in the fifth inning to take Game 1 by a score of 5-3.
Game 2- Doubles by Earl Sigley and Butch Silflies in the sixth inning gave Dryland a 1-0 lead. Bethany’s Glenn Morgan tied the game in the eighth inning with a HR at 1-1. In the 11th inning, Glenn Morgan hit a triple and Marlin Bozes laid down a Sacrifice Bunt to win the game 2-1 for Bethany.
Game 3- Dryland scored 2 runs in the first inning, a run in the third inning, and another run in the fourth inning to take a 4-0 lead. In the eighth inning, doubles by John Hottenstein and Dan Sabetti narrowed the score to 4-1. Dryland added 2 runs in
the ninth inning with a triple and back to back doubles by Butch Silfies and Bernie Yurko to make the final score 6-1 Dryland.
Game 4- We see Dryland scoring single runs in the second, third and fifth innings to win 3-0 as Bethany could only muster 4 hits.
Game 5- A triple by Earl Sigley, followed by doubles by Butch Silfies and Bernie Yurko, a triple by Dave Crouthamel and doubles by Shawn Sigley and Nathan Phares produced 5 runs in the third inning as Dryland batted around. Bethany scored a run in the fifth inning as Bud Konshenik and Glenn Morgan hit triples to make the score 5-1. Jerry Miller’s HR in the sixth inning made the final score 5-2 Dryland and giving Dryland the ‘Championship.’
Leading hitters for Dryland included Bernie Yurko 11 for 23, Butch Silfies 10 for 23, Larry Golick 9 for 24, Earl Sigley and
Dave Crouthamel both 7 for 22. For Bethany, Glenn Morgan was 7 for 19 and Dan Sabetti 5 for 19.
East Allen Township Supervisors Discuss road Improvement Plans
By KERI LINDENMUTHDuring the East Allen Township Board of Supervisors meeting on Wednesday, April 12, supervisors met with Public Works Director Gary Mathesz to discuss upcoming road improvement projects.
Mathesz identified several township roads that need repairs this year, including Miller Drive, Franks Drive, Richard Lane, Portland Drive, and Seiple Lane. Supervisors approved repairs of these five roads for $347,000, not including materials. Funding for these projects will come from the township’s capital funds and liquid fuels budget of $400,000. Repairs will not include seal coating, which will be done using 2024’s budget.
Mathesz also requested that the township write a letter to the City of Bethlehem’s water authority and ask that several township roads be added to the list for water line replacement: Towanda Drive, Oswego Drive, and Allegheny Lane. Oswego Drive alone has had 12 water line breaks. Mathesz said public works cannot repair these roads until the old water line is replaced to prevent costly repairs and patches on new roads. Supervisors unanimously agreed to this request and instructed Township Manager Brent Green to send a letter to the city.
In other news, the board granted conditional final plan approval for the Cowitch Minor Subdivision at 5221 Nor-Bath Blvd. The two-lot subdivision would include an existing home and a new home, which would share a driveway for a short distance. This approval, recommended by the township’s planning commission, also included deferrals for curbing, sidewalks and lighting at the front of the property.
Supervisors also discussed the modification of a culvert design for the Sunny Slope Crossings Major Subdivision, adjacent to Bicentennial Park. Nicole Galio, director of engineering and design with Jaindl Land Company, and Tom Dredge of Langan Engineering presented the plan.
The proposed subdivision would have 76 single-family lots, 24 acres of open space, and four retention basins owned and retained by the development’s homeowners association. The planning commission recommended this plan for final approval in the summer of 2022.

Finally, supervisors discussed several parks and recreation improvements. Supervisors approved the replacement of fencing at the Bicentennial Park West Basketball Court for $5,735 from Tri-Boro Fencing. They also discussed the replacement of Pavilion C at Bicentennial Park, which was initially planned to be built by an Eagle Scout. However, due to Boy Scout safety regulations, an Eagle Scout is not eligible to complete the project. As a result, the township is con-
sidering using local contractors. This delay means the pavilion will not be ready for this summer camp season. Finally, the board discussed future repairs to Jacksonville Park. Grants have been applied for, but none have been awarded to help cover the project’s costs, which are estimated to be about $1.5 million. Other funding opportunities are still being explored.
The next East Allen Township Board of Supervisors meeting will be on April 27 at 7 p.m.

However, during the April 12 meeting, Galio and Dredge proposed a new culvert design using multiple plastic pipes. They said this change would prevent clogging and corrosion at a much lower cost. Galio explained that 75 years of maintenance on the metal culvert could cost between $7.7 million and $9 million. Meanwhile, the plastic pipe design would cost $2.8 million.
Township Engineer James Milot said metal culverts are traditionally used because they support excess flows and minimize clogging. Supervisors told Galio and Dredge they have no wish to change the plan to include the plastic pipes.
They count on your mammogram too.

Nazareth High School Theatre
By SAVANNAH BROWN
Nazareth Area High School Theatre
Troupe transported audience members back to 1958 with their enthralling musical performance of “Bye Bye Birdie” from April 13-16.
Director Sandy Jameson noted that preparing for the show meant having some important conversations with the cast, discovering that the show addresses big cultural changes that prove to be just as relevant today as they were in 1958.
“Bye Bye Birdie” centers around rockstar Conrad Birdie being drafted into the Army (played by sophomore Damon Dellanno), whose character is based on
Elvis Presley. The show opens with Albert (played by senior Jacob Kremer) piring English teacher turned songwrit er getting the news that Conrad drafted into the Army. His long-time secretary and romantic interest Alvarez (played by senior Kaylyn rieri) comes up with the idea Conrad perform a new song that wrote on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” he will give one lucky girl a “last before going off into the Army. In Sweet Apple, Ohio 15-year-old Kim MacAfee (played by junior Borawski) sings “How Lovely

Troupe puts on captivating performance in revamp of ‘Bye Bye Birdie’
Peterson Kremer) an assongwritis being long-time interest Rosie Kaylyn Guerto have that Albert Show,” where “last kiss”
15-year-old junior Julia to be a
Woman,” while reflecting on her maturity after being pinned by her high school sweetheart Hugo Peabody (played by senior Sean Strauss). Suddenly, she gets the phone call that she has been chosen to be Conrad’s last kiss and screams in excitement.
Conrad gets to Sweet Apple and the teenage girls swoon in their stylish 1950s colorful dresses while welcoming him and singing their anthem, “We Love You Conrad.”
Meanwhile, Hugo worries that Kim likes Conrad more and tells her “Conrad Birdie is just a fling, a steady is forever.” Kim assures Hugo that he is the only
boy for her as she sings “One Boy.”
Conrad drives the girls crazy as he thrusts his hips while performing “Honestly Sincere,” causing all the girls to faint.
Kim’s dad, Harry MacAfee (played by junior Aaron Louw), refuses to let Kim kiss Conrad on television, but Albert persuades him to agree by promising that the whole family will get to be on “The Ed Sullivan Show.” The MacAfee family is joined by a gold robe-wearing choir on stage and in the audience as they sing “Hymn for a Sunday Evening,”
an ode to Ed Sullivan.
Albert’s overbearing, dramatic mother
Mae (played by senior Sofia Forgione) comes to town in her long fur coat, pearls, and not a single gray hair out of place to break up Albert’s relationship with Rosie because she objects to Rosie’s Spanish ethnicity. Mae introduces Albert to Gloria Rasputin (played by sophomore Ava DeFebbo) as a ploy to get Albert to replace Rosie. Gloria sees Albert as her way into show business and tap dances to Mae’s “Swanee River,” before embarrassingly doing a split that Albert and Mae have to help her up from.
Albert gives Gloria a typing position and Rosie is furious with Albert, so she convinces Hugo to sabotage Conrad’s
kiss with Kim.
While on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” Conrad, in his green and gold Army uniform, sings “One Last Kiss” and tells Kim to brace herself when Hugo suddenly swoops in and knocks Conrad unconscious.
Rosie breaks up with Albert and convinces Kim that they don’t need men as they sing “What Did I Ever See in Him?” about Albert and Hugo. Kim runs off to join her friends at the Ice House, a known hookup spot.
Albert admits that he needs and loves

We hardly treat spring cleaning as a celebration to welcome warmer days, but it serves many important purposes. One of the most crucial is eliminating allergens to help us breathe easier. If you suffer from seasonal allergies, it’s imperative you rid your home of dust, mildew, mold, pet dander and bugs that accumulated during the colder months, according to a study by the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI).
6 home improvement ideas for fall
can finally get organized. More importantly, there are some home improvement projects that should be done during fall. Read on to find the must-do list that any homeowner must check off before the winter chill sets in.
• Dust the corners of the walls and ceiling: Use a soft broom, or a step ladder and a cordless vacuum.
lead to water damage to your roof and exterior of your home in addition to flooding your basement.
• Clean window sills and window tracks: These accumulate a ton of grime.
Get your mind in the gutter
Cleaning your gutters may not
Spring cleaning also eliminates clutter. That results in an organized home, boosting productivity and increasing energy levels, according to experts. And spring cleaning can relieve stress, make you a happier person and improve your focus.
Spring Cleaning
Tips for Every Room
These tips and tricks can be applied to every room you spring clean.
So, the first home improvement project to tackle this fall should be cleaning your gutters and installing gutter guards to protect them from additional debris, ensuring there will be less work to do next year.
• Clean window treatments: When was the last time you laundered the drapes or curtains in all your rooms? If you can’t remember, spring cleaning is the perfect time to do it. Be sure to wipe down blinds.
Inspect your roof
Home Improvement Moore Township Leaf Collection
The Moore Township leaf collection program will begin on or and will continue for the next eight weeks (depending on conditions). Actual collection will commence when a sufficient amount of leaves have fallen to
With the continuing increase in volume of leaves it has become impossible to guarantee a specific pick-up day for any one location. There will be multiple trips through neighborhoods for the duration of the collection program; therefore, if the leaves are not in place when the crew goes by, they will be picked up on the next rotation. This schedule is subject to inclement weather, mechanical breakdowns, and Township Emergencies making it
• Dust shelves: Pull off books, knick-knacks and other items to get rid of dust. A microfiber cloth is most effective because it traps the dust instead of moving it around.
• Disinfect door knobs, cabinet handles and light switches: Simply spray a little cleaner on a cleaning cloth and wipe off each knob, handle or switch. Then dry with a clean towel.
Make sure your home stays warm and dry during winter with a solid roof. Stay ahead of any roof trouble and inspect it thoroughly or, better yet, hire a professional to do it. Check that your roof has not sprung any leaks during the past year, and replace any shingles that are cracked, missing or curling. Regular inspections and maintenance of your roof will help prolong its life. If your roof does need major repairs or replacements, consider gathering multiple estimates from reputable contractors.
• Wash the walls: After a solid scrub-down with a mild household cleaner, use a Magic Eraser to gently remove scuffs and stains.
• Clean out the closet: Clear off shelves and find another place for things you don’t need or love. Get everything off the floor and give it a good scrub.
Give your windows a thorough check-up
Heat leakage from windows can have a severe impact on your energy bills during the cooler seasons. It is no wonder that savvy home owners always make it a point to check on their windows during fall, before the cold weather kicks in.
• Vacuum under furniture: After cleaning everything up above, it’s time to tackle the floors. Move all the heavy furniture and clean underneath it. Tackle upholstery with a handheld attachment.
A quick windows check-up always contains:
Making sure the locks are functioning properly
• Swap out clothing: Who needs bulky sweaters taking up valuable space in your closet all summer? Pull out the storage bags with summer clothes and put away your winter garb.
Inspecting the weather stripping – start with the sides of your window sash and check if the stripping is intact in the place where the frame meets the sash. Next, tilt the sash and check the weather stripping on its inside. If they are both intact, you’re good to go!
• Sort through your shoes and socks: If you no longer wear a pair of shoes, it’s time to donate, toss or fix. Likewise, there’s bound to be some socks missing their counterpart, and others with holes. Toss ’em.
• Go through your dresser: Pull everything out, donate what you no longer want, then re-fold the rest.
Checking the sealant or caulk to make sure it doesn’t need to be touched up.
Prepare your deck and patio for winter
• Wash bedding and pillows: When was the last time you washed your pillows?
Spring Cleaning Bathrooms
• Tackle the medicine cabinet: Clear out expired medicines and old cosmetics.
• Declutter shelves and drawers: It’s too easy to accumulate products in bathroom drawers and let clutter pile up on shelves and in the vanity. Toss what you don’t need, then organize and put back the rest.
Clean your patio furniture thoroughly before putting it away for the winter. Empty the dirt in any decorative clay or ceramic pots – otherwise it can freeze and crack the pots. More importantly, check for any cracks or dents in your deck or patio. If there are any, you should fix them as a matter of priority. Any small problem you have now will grow bigger during the cold season, especially if water gets into the cracks and freezes.
Inspect your heating system and chimneys
• Deep clean the sink, shower and toilet: It’s probably your least favorite task, but it’s a definite spring cleaning must. Along with scrubbing, be sure to wash the shower curtain, bathmat and any throw rugs.
Whatever heating system you are using, now is the perfect time to get it checked. Take the opportunity to also inspect any smoke and fire detectors, carbon monoxide detectors.
• Declutter your linen closet: Pull out the old towels and sheets to donate, and re-fold the ones you still want.
If you plan to use your fireplace, the chimney must be inspected by a professional. You
Spring Cleaning The Kitchen
• Deep clean the refrigerator: Remove all shelves, racks and bins in your fridge and freezer, then wash and dry them. Toss out expired and unwanted items. Wipe down the interior walls before you put the shelves back.
• Deep clean your cabinets: Pull out all food, toss expired items and organize the rest.
• Toss out or donate old pots and pans: Same goes for water bottles and plastic food containers. Check to see if any can be recycled.
• Organize that junk drawer: Self-explanatory.
• Clean your oven, cooktop and vent hood: Replace or clean any filters as well.
• Clean your microwave and toaster oven: Don’t forget the crumbs at the bottom of the toaster oven.
• Sort through your mugs and glasses: It’s amazing how easily these can build up. Donate what you don’t want and organize the rest.

Emrick Announces $1.25M grant for Upper Nazareth Fire Department
Submitted by JACOB MISAL Emphasizing the importance of public safety, Rep. Joe Emrick (R-Northampton) announced that $1.25 million was recently awarded to the Upper Nazareth Fire Department for its building expansion project. The grant will be used to help build a four-bay garage for station vehicles and a complete second floor.
“The Upper Nazareth Fire De-
partment does so much to serve our local community and keep people safe. This funding is crucial in allowing our volunteer firefighters to provide the services we so deeply rely upon,” said Emrick.
“We are incredibly grateful for this grant funding, and we appreciate Rep. Emrick’s extensive work in helping to secure it. Over the past decade, our population has increased more than 30% and this money will be vital in allowing our department to grow and continue serving the residents of Upper Nazareth Township,” said Fire Chief Jeff Fassl.
This project was funded through the state Department of Community and Economic Development.
Bye Bye Birdie
Rosie while planning to run after her, but before he does, he rearranges a do-over kiss between Conrad and Kim. Conrad informs him that he’s going out to meet young chicks and that he won’t be back in time to kiss Kim.
At the Ice House, Conrad sings about kissing chicks in
“Lot of Livin’ To Do,” and Kim corrects him, telling Conrad that she’s a grown woman as he tries to make a move on her.
Hugo tells Harry that Kim and Conrad ran off for midnight swims, motorboat races, and loop de loop. Harry is furious and erupts into “Kids,” a song about disobedient kids while questioning “What’s the matter with kids today?”
Rosie goes to Maude’s Roadside Retreat to drink and flirt
with men. She tells everyone to call her Spanish Rose and announces that this is her coming out while singing “Spanish Rose” in a sultry red dress.
Albert calls the bar and asks to speak to Rosie while singing “Baby, Talk to Me,” but Rosie is unconvinced. She goes into a private men’s room and Albert shows up looking for her. Mae follows him to the bar and Albert tells his mother to go home because he doesn’t need her anymore.
Mamma Mae sings about all the things she did for him as his mother in “A Mother Doesn’t Matter Anymore,” as she dramatically asserts “You sacrifice your life, and then you get the knife.”
All of the Sweet Apple parents are looking for their kids when Hugo informs them that they’re at the Ice House. Harry calls the police, and the adults and police show up to arrest Conrad because Kim is underage.
Rosie reconciles with Albert, and he tells her he loves her and wants to marry her. Rosie is ecstatic and when Mae asks Rosie to talk, Rosie tells her that she’s going to call her mom soon. However, Mae can’t let go of her racist objections and she cries at the thought.
Albert bails Conrad out of jail and sneaks him out of town with Conrad dressed as a woman.
Kim’s mom, Doris MacAfee (played by junior Jade Mills), tells everyone that Hugo has proposed to Kim and that Kim said yes!
Then, Albert and Rosie miss their train home on purpose, so they can move to a new town where Albert can be an English teacher and marry Rosie. Albert sings “my life is Rosie since I’ve
got my Rosie,” and the couple dances together and shares a kiss as the show comes to an end.
With over 120 students involved in the production, the cast, ensemble, student staff and
SEND
crew, and orchestra were all phenomenal in their pivotal roles to make the production a truly sensational success.
