FEBRUARY 24-MARCH 2, 2022

Looking by Back Ed Pany Weaversville to War, Part 5 of 5 In this concluding column, Larry Oberly and this writer are completing our interview with Mrs. Beatrice Christoff, whose father, Herbert Ruch, served with the U.S. Engineers in New Guinea and Manila. I hope we did not exhaust her with all of our questions.

The war was over, but now the priority was to bring home the men and women who served in the armed services. Sgt. Ruch was stationed in Manila.

He writes, “The best rumor is that we will be on our way home by Dec. 15, 1945. Eighteen ships are due in port. There are 4,000 men ahead of us.

Many ships come in and leave with thousands. I hate to leave my best friend in the Army, Adam Barko. On Christmas Day, I found out I am leaving on the USS Admiral Sims. We left the docks 6:30 a.m. and never stopped.

“We have 100 nurses on the ship. Tomorrow is new year for 4,000 of us. On Jan. 5, 1946, we were 2,000 miles from home. We had two Fridays due to crossing the international date line. We arrived in port at Los Angeles, Calif., 8 a.m. and were taken by bus to Camp Anza, Riverside, Calif. On Jan. 12, we were called out of bed 12:30 a.m. and boarded a train 1:30 a.m. We got a civilian Pullman car. We were going to Indiantown Gap. Some of the cars were going to a southern camp.

“The train ride was long and could have been tragic. The train left California, stopped at Yuma, Ariz., and Carrizozo, N.M. The stop at El Paso, Texas, was far from normal. The train jumped the track, tearing up the rails. The detailing was a real mess. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured. It was good we were not driving fast.”

The men survived the war and then were fortunate to survive a wreck in Texas.

“After a delay, we reached St. Louis, Mo.; Cleveland, Ohio; Rochester, N.Y.; and finally Indiantown Gap Jan. 19, 1946. It was 24 days since we boarded the USS Sims in Manila.”

At Indiantown Gap, they were served a steak dinner. They got rid of their clothes and were given some lectures, a physical, their pay and new clothing. They went to chapel 2:30 p.m. There was so much to pray about. Sgt. Ruch and his comrades returned home safely, but many servicemen and women would never see home again. At 3 p.m., Jan. 19, 1946, he was discharged, a civilian again, and boarded a bus for Allentown.

His parents were there to welcome their son. Soon, they were home.

Sgt. Ruch’s tour of duty soon would be a memory. He hoped to get his old job back at Rehrig Electric Windings in Northampton, but the shop was closed. He would be hired

Northampton Borough Pursues digital Transformation

Submitted by GOVPILOT A transition from paper to digital processes is underway in the Northampton Borough, where local officials have sought greater efficiency in municipal operations and constituent services.

The borough recently partnered with GovPilot, a Hoboken, New Jersey based provider of cloudbased government management software.

Officials from Northampton Borough will work with GovPilot to implement a number of digital capabilities and public facing forms that aim to make operations more efficient and services more convenient for constituents. Officials will initially utilize GovPilot for Building Permits, Electrical Permits, Plumbing and HVAC Permits, Landlord Registration, Rental Property Registration, Zoning Permits, and nonemergency citizen concerns.

“The digital transformation of our operations and services is critical to the Northampton community given the efficiencies and convenience it provides both to our employees and to our residents,” said Northampton Code Enforcement Officer, Keith Knoblach. “GovPilot offers a solution

CRPD officer Michael Kovach Honored for 25 years of service

By HOME NEWS STAFF On Tuesday, February 8, the Hanover Township Board of Supervisors honored Michael Kovach, a Colonial Regional Police officer celebrating 25 years of service. The board announced they are designating the week of March 7 in Kovach’s honor.

"Michael J. Kovach is applauded and recognized for his years of service as a police officer, and the board of supervisors expresses its gratitude and appreciation," said John Nagle, board Chairman, as he read from a proclamation.

Kovach will retire from the Colonial Regional Police Depart-

ment on Thursday, March 3.

Kovach has been with the Colonial Regional Police Department since 1997. Over the years he has been a bicycle officer, a member of the Northampton County Drug Task Force, and an officer to the community where he has been in charge of the neighborhood watch program.

Kovach is a 1989 graduate of the Allentown Police Academy and started his career at Lehigh University as an officer, and later went on to Nazareth where he worked as a part-time officer before joining CRPD, said Chairman Nagle.

Other present supervisors Susan Lawless, John Diacogiannis and Jeffrey Warren echoed Nagle’s words thanking Kovach for his 25 years of dedicated service to the community.

Michael J. Kovach Week will hereby be held in Hanover Township the week of March 7.

lehem and have a long career there as a dedicated employee, retiring after 30 years of service.

His name is among many who served the nation on a plaque of honor across from St. John’s United Church of Christ in Howertown, where he was an active member.

Herbert married Francis Smith in 1948 and raised four fine daughters: Barbara Ruch

Christman, Bonnie Ruch Herzog, Beatrice Ruch Christoff and Betty Ruch Genovese.

This writer and Larry Oberly thank Beatrice and her husband for their kindness and cooperation. Mrs. Christoff, a former student of this writer, had a long career at PPL Electric.

Her husband, Stanley, worked at both Coplay and Dragon cement companies and later retired after a rewarding career at Air Products.

Ice Harvesting Saturday, March 19 from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.

Before refrigeration, ice harvesting from frozen lakes and ponds was a very large industry and an important part of rural life. Iceboxes, the precursor to the refrigerator, were common in many households and ice harvested during the winter were used to keep the icebox cold. The commercial ice industry utilized huge icehouses to store the harvested ice for distribution by the iceman to customers. In addition, many farmers constructed small icehouses that were filled with ice for their own use to preserve food. Guest speaker Bill Leonard, Jr. will cover the history of ice harvesting, the tools used, how ice was harvested, and a local ice harvest that continues today.

Gab Over by Pete The Fence G. Ossip

How ‘bout that snow squall last Saturday? That was really something, I can’t really say I’ve seen one before, I was amazed. I was also glad I was off the road when it hit!

Maybe it’s the last snow we’ll get for the season. Too soon to tell…

So Tuesday, or “Twosday,” was quite the day. When writing it like 2/22/22, it is a palindrome, meaning it reads the same forward and backward when written in the US format- month, day and year, and the format most other countries follow of day, month and year. The last time we had a date like this was Nov. 11, 2011- 11/11/11. Another “Twosday” won’t happen again for another 400 years, not until the year 2422. And believe it or not, I was writin’ this out when the clock struck 2:22 p.m. on 2/22/22!

Speaking of Tuesdays, next Tuesday is Fat Tuesday, or Fastnacht/ Fasnacht Day. Be sure to get your fastnachts in time! I know Lattemann’s is currently taking fastnacht orders if you wanna order them there, the deadline to order is this Friday. I’ve been craving some homemade fastnachts, made with potatoes and all…Anywho, it’s not all about Tuesday, Monday was Washington’s Birthday, otherwise known as Presidents’ Day. It was established in 1885 in recognition of George Washington’s

birthday…Back to talkin’ about food though- Nazareth Moravian Church is havin’ an Easter candy sale right now, inquire within the church for more info. Not sure if any other churches are having one this year but Easter will be here before you know it…Wednesday was the ribbon cutting ceremony for Nazareth’s newest restaurant, Indigo 52. They’re the Lehigh Valley’s first 100% gluten-free and dairy-free restaurant and they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. More on them next week. We’ve been havin’ trouble findin’ freelancers lately so we’re gonna be late on the most recent Northampton Borough meeting and we had to miss the most recent Northampton School Board meeting. I did see though that the NASD approved $4.8 million for the Seemsville project. It was a 5-4 vote at the meeting on Valentine’s Day so the school district is going to move forward with plans for a new K-5 elementary school and educational center. This would be located at Seemsville Road and Route 329 in East Allen. Hopefully come March we’ll be back to our regular schedule as far as the meetings we normally cover. One more thing before I go, the theme for March’s photo of the month contest is “farewell to winter.” Send us your favorite winter photos to bid adieu to the season. Photos do not need to be from this year. Cya next time!

BATH AREA Police Blotter

Crash Hanover Township The PSP-Bethlehem are investigating a two-vehicle crash that occurred on Feb. 18 just after 9 p.m. on Rt. 22 west of Rt. 512 in Hanover Township. Unit 1, a Nissan Rogue driven by 28-year-old Anthony Ortega, was initially traveling in the right lane of travel behind Unit 2, a Honda Civic driven by 28-year-old John Suarez. Ortega, while conducting a careless pass and lane change into the left lane, then traversed over the center dividing.

Unit 2 then struck the rear bumper of Unit 1, causing Unit 1 to lose control and spin out. Unit 1 came to final rest in the left lane of travel facing eastbound in the westbound lane. Unit 2 came to rest facing westbound on Rt. 22. Both vehicles were blocking the left lane of travel.

Unit 1 sustained disabling impact damage, unit 2 sustained minor impact damage.

Hit and run Bath Borough On Feb. 7 at 3:36 p.m., PSP responded to the Dunkin Donuts parking lot in the Bath Borough for the report of a hit and run crash.

The owner of Unit 2, a Chevy Cobalt, relayed that he went to work and when he went outside to his vehicle, parked in the parking lot, he observed the rear right brake light broken. Video surveillance footage is being assessed.

Theft/crime by deception On Jan. 6, PSP-Bethlehem was dispatched to Bally Drive in East Allen Township for the report of a fraud. Upon speaking with the victim, police were informed that the victim had paid for merchan-

dise from Radio Shack but did not receive the items. It was related she had used a number for Radio Shack from the Lehigh Valley Yellow Pages which someone had supplied the number falsely under the business’s name to fraudulently gain people’s funds. An investigation is being conducted.

DUI crash drugs On Feb. 7 at 4:33 p.m., PSP responded to the location of Kreidersville Road/Arrowhead Lane in regards to a reportable motor vehicle crash. The operator of the vehicle was transported to Lehigh Valley Muhlenberg Hospital for treatment.

Crash Locust Road This crash occurred on Feb. 16 at 6:22 a.m. as Unit 1, a Ford Explorer, was traveling west on Locust Road in the area of Beth Bath Pike. The driver, 28-year-old Jose Cabrera, had observed a small animal cross the roadway, at which time he attempted to swerve out of the way.

The vehicle then left the roadway and impacted a PPL Utility pole.

Theft/crime by deception On Dec. 16, PSP Bethlehem received a report of an ID theft. Upon taking the report, knowledge was learned of an in-dept ID scam that was possibly being run by a false IRS agent and other actors from Colorado. An investigation and theft of $3,000 is being conducted in this incident.

Disorderly conduct On Feb. 19 PSP troopers responded to Thermo-Fisher Scientific on Silver Crest Road in East Allen Township once again for a false fault alarm. Thermo-Fisher Scientific cited with disorderly conduct.

Theft from building On January 14, PSP Bethlehem was dispatched to Jetport Self Storage on Airport Road for a report of

a theft from a storage unit. The victim related that some time between December 15 and January 14, an unknown actor gained entry to his storage unit and stole power tools totaling approximately $2,400.

Theft East Allen Twp. On Oct. 29, an employee of Lehigh Valley Hydroponics, identified as 32-year-old Zachary Ziegler, entered the business and stole approximately $80 from the cash register.

Ziegler also stole a computer valued at $400 and a bag of Fox Farm Happy Frog valued at $59.99. On Oct. 30 Ziegler attempted to use a business credit card to make a transaction of $5,000 which was denied.

Total stolen was approximately $540 from the business.

Drug possession Colonial Regional Police observed a vehicle with an expired registration on Hanoverville Road near the intersection of Township Line Road in Lower Nazareth Township on Feb. 11.

Northampton County will Sponsor Municipal Electronic Waste Collection Events

By BECKY BARTLETT For the second year in a row, the Northampton County Public Works Department will reimburse municipalities to hold their own Electronic Recycling events. The County will pay for the vendor mobilization fee which includes laborers, material and supplies and transportation of e-waste to a certified facility. Residents may have to pay a fee depending on the types of electronics they drop off to be

www.HomeNewsPA.com

recycled.

“These individual collections offer many advantages including shorter lines and less distance to travel,” says Lamont McClure.

“While the County was able to host these events for all of our residents prior to 2020 that is no longer possible due to COVID-19 restrictions and finding a vendor who will do large-scale collections.”

Residents should contact their municipal office for information on when and if a recycling event will be held in their borough, township or city. For those who don’t have access to an event, permanent Electronics Drop-off locations include: Best Buy, 4413 Birkland Pl., Easton 18045, P: 610-250-2689 (No televisions accepted at PA store locations) Clean Earth Recycling, 2330 SW 26th St., Allentown 18103, P: 610-433-4011 DRC Technologies, 2005 Main St., Northampton 18067, P: 610-502-0854 GER Solutions, 635 S.10th St, Allentown 18103, P: 610-443-1776 Residential curbside pickup is available.

John’s Computer Consulting, 148 S Main St, Nazareth 18064, P: 610-746-2462 (No televisions accepted) Staples, various locations (No televisions accepted at PA store locations) Fees may apply Residents are reminded to erase the data on their computers and mobile phones before recycling.

Many companies do not provide this service, which could put your personal information at risk.

Consider donating gently used cell phones at a participating Cell Phones for Soldiers drop-off location.

Electronic waste (E-waste) is not defined as hazardous waste (Act 190) and does not receive any State funding for residential disposal methods. Those using E-waste collection programs are required to pay fees where they apply. Northampton County does not use general fund tax dollars.

Services and coordination are paid for by the Northampton County Recycling and Sustainability Fund, with voluntary contributions provided by Waste Management’s Grand Central Sanitary, Alliance and Fearless Landfills.

ital form on the city website, or through an app on their phone, called GovAlert. The app, available to residents on Android and iOS devices, is easy to use, and routes citizen concerns directly to the relevant municipal department so that the issue can be resolved quickly.

“We look forward to working with GovPilot to transition our operations and processes into a digital environment, which we believe will result in significant cost savings and more convenient services for our taxpayers,” said LeRoy Brobst, Northampton’s Borough Manager. “I encourage

residents to download the GovAlert app on their phones and help us improve Northampton by reporting issues that they come across so we can address them quickly and make Northampton an even better place to call home.”

Michael Bonner, the founder and CEO of GovPilot said, “We are excited to work with Northampton on its early stages of digital transformation. Federal funding from the American Rescue Plan Act has spurred local governments to implement digital services and operations.

In partnering with local governments across the country we have found that digital processes generate significant increases in efficiency and productivity that have a positive impact on local

budgets, services, and constituent experience. We expect to see similar results in Northampton Borough.”

Northampton joins other Pennsylvania GovPilot customers including Archbald Borough, Clarks Summit Borough, and Lycoming County.

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual

Broom the Colon

by DR. GLENN CLEARIE, DC

Cleaning the intestines is no small (colon…) thing. In doing so you clear out toxins, poisons, stealth pathogens, and other “general” debris. I have always stated that the battle of the south begins in the north. Translated, what you put in your mouth will have to be dealt with “downstream.”

Simply think about what you may have had to drink, eat, breathed in, or even applied to your body intentionally or unintentionally over the past month or so. Can you reasonably say that every last bit helped your health improve? Candidly I myself cannot. We are closer to being human landfills than we are otherwise, aren’t we?

To this end, our bodies, in all their amazing ways, process the onslaught of all substances, good or less than good, to keep us going. At some point, “at the end,” it all comes through the south passages…

It is not that difficult to understand that we should be consuming those items that keep our intestinal tracts as healthy as possible. This is the reason why eating a high(er) fiber diet is essential. Good clean fibrous foods, like broccoli for example, keeps rubbing, scraping, cleaning, healing all along the piping from the north through the south.

Please understand that fiber actually nourishes the bacterial microorganism that reside within the gastro-intestinal tract. In fact, there are trillions of micro-organisms and the healthier fiber you eat, the stronger the good guys become. I do not include fake high fiber cereals as an option really, as rather than lining the GI tract; I feel it only lines the pockets of big manufacturing. Real food, created by God, is the focus one needs to have firmly set.

From my natural perspective, much of the health issues we face can be improved upon by allowing, assisting, helping the liver and kidneys function properly.

When I consider any backlog in either of them (yet for our current conversation the liver specifically) somehow and in some

way you will be ill in a small or large way.

Now an additional whole food supplement of fibrous food is clearly a fantastic option. I was first introduced to phylum husk powder some thirty years ago.

A simple dose placed in water and swallowed in the north end does a world of good as it passes through the south! Consuming clean fibrous foods and the addition of whole food fibrous powder is simply a “no brainer” if one wants to not only clean house but also make way for the liver to further excrete its contents into the intestines to quickly get it out of the body.

I would ask everyone and anyone in ear shot to take to heart what we have discussed here today. Go slow and steady- get out the broom and get going.
