Shaffer honored with last ride Don Shaffer was honored with one last ride on a 1927 Mack firetruck when his body was transported from Disque Funeral Home in Dallas to its final resting place in Chapel Lawn Cemetery. Firefighters from Back Mountain Regional Fire & EMS placed the casket of the former fire chief onto the truck following funeral services on May 4 and escorted it to the cemetery.

Shaffer, who was born in WilkesBarre but had lived in Dallas all his life, died Tuesday, April 30, 2013. For more than 50 years, he was a volunteer ﬁreﬁghter at the Dr. Henry M. Laing Dallas Fire Company and served as chief for 17 years. He was also a member of the Six County Fireman’s Association for more than 30 years and served as See SHAffeR, Page 4

It was a grand slam for Lake-Lehman students when they cleaned up at the statewide History Day competition. After having won the Outstanding School Award, Senior Division, at the Regional History Day Contest for 14 consecutive years, the Lake-Lehman students brought home the Outstanding School Award from the State History Day Contest this year. In addition to winning a first place, a second place and a third place, LakeLehman was named the best school in the entire state of Pennsylvania. And, as if that wasn’t enough, LakeLehman History Day Coordinator Michael Novrocki was named the recipient of the Patricia M. Behring State History Day Teacher of the Year Award. This is the fourth time the Black Knights have been named the best school in the entire state of Pennsylvania. Ironically enough, Novrocki was unable to attend the state History Day competition last weekend at Cumberland Valley High School as his son received First Holy Communion at the same time. History teacher Brian Gorski and English teacher Stacey Ruddy accompanied the Lehman students and kept Novrocki apprised of their accomplishments. “I’ve gone most years before this and couldn’t be there this year,” Novrocki said. “My colleagues texted me every five minutes and every piece of information was even more amazing.” The team of Katie Bartuska, Elana Herceg, Brittany Mahoney and Lana Sicurella brought home a first-place award in the group documentary category with their presentation on the Munich massacre, an attack during the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, West Germany on 11 members of the Israeli Olympic team, who were taken hostage and eventually killed, along with a German police officer, by the Palestinian group Black September. Second-place in the group exhibit category went to the team of Sela Fine, Hannah Cross and Shauna Leahy who did their presentation of Nelly Bly, the pen name of American journalist Elizabeth Jane Cochrane who remains notable for two feats: a record-breaking trip around the world in emulation of Jules Verne’s character Phileas Fogg, and an See HISTORY, Page 4

DALLAS TOWNSHIP

Development ordinance change sought By SUSAN DENNEY Dallas Post Correspondent

Supervisors are considering an amendment which could change the way property is developed in Dallas Township. The projected amendment to the township’s SALDO (Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance) would change the deﬁnition of a major subdivision and allow property owners to split a property into two lots without having to meet requirements for a major subdivision. According to supervisor Bill Grant, the township’s present ordinance “has stymied development.” Supervisors will consider the amendment at next month’s meeting. The meeting room on May 7 was ﬁlled with representatives of towing companies who had received informa-

tion packets about the possibility of towing cars for the township. Supervisors are considering the creation of a towing policy similar to ones in the Municipality of Kingston and Hanover Township. Bob Kadluboski, who has been critical of Wilkes-Barre City politics, started the towers’ comments by telling supervisors they should avoid towing woes like those seen in Wilkes-Barre. “The poster child for what’s wrong is Wilkes-Barre,” Kadluboski said. He asked if the township intended to charge fees to the towers they worked with. Grant assured him that charging is not supervisors’ intent. “We’re not looking at this as a money generator for the township.” Township solicitor Thomas Brennan agreed, saying that people had asked to

be given a chance to tow for the township. “We are trying to be fair to everyone.” Representatives of different ﬁrms asked about the informational packet they had received. Many were not pleased that the township might expect a tower to shoulder the expense of towing stolen cars. But Chief Robert Jolley felt the number of incidents would be few and that towers should factor those losses into their fee schedules. Another discussion centered on the possibility of the township requiring an inventory of car contents. Chris Yankovich said, “I never go in their vehicles,” adding that towed vehicles are locked and put in impound. A representative of Falzone’s Towing Service said his company takes pictures of valuables in plain sight in a vehicle

and documents laptops or wallets left on seats. But the representative said, “We don’t dig through them or check the car trunk or glove box.” Supervisor Liz Martin thanked the representatives for their input and asked those interested in a rotation system similar to the one in the Municipality of Kingston to sign up at the end of the meeting. Chief Jolley introduced a request from Dallas school superintendent Frank Galicki to meet with him about the possibility of applying for a COPS federal grant to provide a resource ofﬁcer to the school district. Jolley said the grant proposal would not cover all costs of hiring the police ofﬁcer and that the grant deadline is in just a few days. He also pointed out that the cap for the grant is $125,000

The eligible senior will receive four $5 vouchers that can be redeemed only at a Pennsylvania farmers stand participating in the program.

These proxy forms are now available at any of the Active Adult centers sponsored by Area Agency on Aging listed below. Regular weekly hours are listed for each center. No other form or note will be allowed. The “Proxy” form, if shown in the paper, can be used. A limit of two proxy forms is allowed per person.

for three years. Supervisors discussed a sewer and stormwater project for Stredney Road as a project for the 2014 Community Development Block Grant. Resident Jay Niskey expressed concern about a number of property issues in the township, referring to a large tree at the intersection of Skyview and Woodview that he believes presents a danger. Niskey called it a “no man’s land.” Solicitor Brennan said nothing can be done until the owner of that parcel of land has been determined. The May supervisors meeting has been changed to 7 p.m. on Monday, May 20 to avoid a conﬂict with Election Day which is set for Tuesday, May 21.

he Franklin Township Fire Company showcased its new training facility upgrade to the public at an open house on May 5. Maureen Oremus, ﬁrst assistant chief, said the event gave the community a chance to see the new training facility and learn about what services are available there. The facility includes a 40 by 60 foot hall that seats more than 200 people and can be rented for weddings or other events. The company also plans to use the facility for a wide range of training like a session held recently on how to use breathing apparatus. In the near future, there will be vehicle rescue training, propane gas training and “maze” training where

ﬁreﬁghters crawl through a dark building to rescue victims. Second Assistant Chief Doug Farr applied for a state grant used to fund the upgrades and the ladies axuiliary contributed a large sum of money. With 11 active members and six junior members, the company serves more than 2,000 homes within a 16mile radius in the Back Mountain. It handled more than 130 calls last year. The grant money was used for the facility upgrade because the company’s equipment is paid off at this time. It currently has one tanker, a brush truck, one engine and a mini pumper. The company also has a “smokehouse” it uses to train visitors how to survive in a burning building.

He said the proposed site is He said the “off the beaten proposed path” and will site is “off make use of land the beaten owned by the state correction- path” and will make al institute.

In regular business, the township hired the following: Joseph Stager as part-time assistant zoning officer/planning administrator, Michael Putnam as part-time code enforcement officer, Duncan Mac Mullen as parttime road worker and John Maciolek as part-time police officer. The township accepted the resignations of part-time police officers Leo Letoski and John Foley. Letoski has also resigned as part-time code enforcement officer. Council members also accepted the retirement of part-time road worker Rich Hann. Jeffrey Malak, township solicitor, was authorized to prepare and initiate a Drug and Alcohol Testing Program for all township employees. Resident Mary Dockeray asked about the recent gaming grant received by the township in favor of Lake-Lehman School District. She felt the grant money should affect residents more directly. Dockeray also asked if sewer or water projects could be applied for from casino money and urged supervisors to continue to apply for grants to help benefit the township. Council president John Wilkes pointed out several recent projects which were funded by successful grant applications.

Third place in group performance was awarded to the team of Ronnie Ziomek, Jenna Mortenson and Jasmine Moku who did their presentation on the Irish potato famine which caused a period of mass starva-

tion, disease and emigration between 1845 and 1852. First and second-place winners will advance to national competition set for June 13 at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD while the third-place award winners will act as alternates in the event either the first or second-place winners cannot attend national competition. “We finished in second place last year,” Novrocki said of Lehman’s Outstanding School Award. “But no other school had a first, second and third-place winner this year. I had a good feeling about it this year

because I knew we had some fantastic projects going to states.” Novrocki was nominated for the state History Day Teacher of the Year Award by Ryan Lindbuchler, chairperson of the history department at Lake-Lehman. The award is presented to a teacher who is actively involved in History Day and has shown outstanding achievement in education through the use of the History Day program. Novrocki is now the Pennsylvania nominee for the National History Day Teacher of the Year Award.

Lots to do at the Back Mountain Memorial Library The Back Mountain Memorial Library is busy planning several events for you to enjoy…now that the weather is warmer and we’re all scheduling our spring activities. The library will host a “Battle of Wyoming” program at 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 16. Penn State Wilkes-Barre senior instructor Bill Bachman will present this documentary film which he wrote and directed. The film recounts the events of July 3, 1778, the date of the Battle of Wyoming in Wyoming Valley which was located between present-day Wyoming and Exeter. Robert Mischak, who portrayed Col. Nathan Denison, second in command at the Battle of Wyoming, will also be on hand in military regalia to discuss and display military field pieces of the 18th century and military clothing. Pre-registration is required for this free program. Plan now to join us and call the library at 675-1182 to register. AUCTION JUST TWO MONTHS AWAY Hard to believe but the Back Mountain Memorial Library’s Annual Auction is only two months away. And… only one month away is the annual KickOff Dinner and Mini-Auction. This fun evening will be held on Monday, June 3 at the Apple Tree Terrace at Newberry Estates in Dallas. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served beginning at 6 p.m. with dinner following at 7 pm. The dinner will be buffet style, including a grilling station featuring grilled flat iron steak and chicken marsala, a pasta station featuring penne pasta

with either marinara, tomato vodka or alfredo sauce and a mini salad station and dessert station. The price of the dinner is $23 per person and it is open to the public. Reservations can be made at the library by May 25. The auction will be held on July 11, 12, 13 and 14 and it’s not too early for you and your friends to discuss volunteering. It’s a fun night out and also helps the library. Tweens age 12 and older and adults are asked to call the library if they can help either with set-up or working at the actual auction. Donations of items are also currently being accepted during normal library hours. Household items, nearly olde vintage collectibles and dishes, slightly used books and antiques are needed. Of course, new goods items and gift certiﬁcates to area businesses are always popular. SUMMER STORY HOURS Parents are reminded that registration for children’s Summer Story hours will begin on Tuesday, June 11. You may call the library at 675-1182 beginning at 9:30 a.m. on that day to register your child. Registration for the children’s Summer Reading Program will begin on Wednesday, June 12. This year’s theme is “Dig into Reading” and promises many fun activities. Stop by the library and pick up a ﬂyer for more information. HOLIDAY HOURS The library will be closed on Monday, May 27 for the Memorial Day holiday and will re-open on Tuesday, May 28 with normal hours.

MOMENTS IN TIME

* On May 25, 1927, Robert Ludlum, author of 25 thrillers, is born in New York City. Although he never earned a reputation as a masterful prose stylist, his suspenseful stories such as “The Bourne Identity” gripped a wide readership. As a critic for The Washington Post noted about one Ludlum novel: “It’s a lousy book. So I stayed up until 3 a.m. to ﬁnish it.” * On May 26, 1940, President Franklin Roosevelt makes a radio appeal for the support of the Red Cross. Belgian and French civilians were “running from their homes to escape bombs and shells and machine gunning, without shelter, and almost wholly without food,” broadcast FDR.

The History Channel * On May 24, 1844, in a demonstration witnessed by members of Congress, American inventor Samuel F.B. Morse dispatches a telegraph message from the U.S. Capitol to a railroad station in Baltimore. The message — “What Hath God Wrought?” — was telegraphed back to the Capitol a moment later. * On May 22, 1859, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of master sleuth Sherlock Holmes, is born in Scotland. His ﬁrst Sherlock Holmes story, “A Study in Scarlet,” was published in Beeton’s Christmas Annual in 1887.

Resident urges taxpayer to attend L-L Board meetings Dear Editor: I ﬁnd it absolutely appalling that the Lake-Lehman School Board has once again applied for and received the green light to raise our school taxes above the tax cap. As teachers retire, they are not being replaced. Potholes, which are now craters, riddle the exit area of the Lake-Noxen

Elementary school to which the director of maintenance advised they will be repaired when they get to it. These have been there since the beginning of the school year. I have lived in Harveys Lake for the past three years and every year the taxes are raised. I urge the taxpayers of the Lehman School District to attend every board

meeting they possibly can and make their voice heard. We, the taxpayers, should not and cannot keep the school district above water on our own. It is time to make the board listen to our concerns. After all, we are the taxpayers. Holly Eichenlaub Harveys Lake

Andrew Levandoski, 16, of Dallas, a junior at Wyoming Seminary, and Lily Romanowski, 17, of Swoyerville, a junior at Lake-Lehman High School, are exhibiting their art work at the Berwick Hospital. Both young artists studied under artist Sue Hand for 10 years. Levanodski’s mediums are watercolor, oil and colored pencil. Animals and nature are central to much of his art work; however, he is exploring other subject matter, especially ﬁgures. Most of Romanowski’s art work is inspired by color, dramatic lighting and the contrast between lights and darks. Drawing and painting have always provided her with peace, joy and solitude. The exhibit, which includes 30 pieces of art, will be on display during regular business hours the entire month of May.

OLD STICK GAME

Adams, Wilson provide one-two punch in LL lacrosse win By TOM ROBINSON For The Dallas Post

hether the measurement is volume or timing, sophomore attacker Alyssa Adams has shown the ability to be a big-time goal producer for the Lake-Lehman girls’ lacrosse team. Adams scored a season-high eight goals Tuesday to lead a 16-4 romp over rival Dallas. She came back the next night to score the game-winning goal with 48 seconds left for an 8-7 victory over second-place Delaware Valley, which entered the game with an 8-2 record and losses only against Wyoming Valley Conference champion Wyoming Seminary. “Three girls crashed on me and I just took a shot,” Adams said of the gamewinner. Adams has taken many shots for the Lady Knights, while forming a 1-2 scoring punch with Mallory Wilson. The two sophomores made a connection from the time they started playing together with the Back Mountain Bandits in seventh grade. Wilson, the daughter of Lake-Lehman coach Alex Wilson, had been the youngest player in the program when she joined in fourth grade and played with girls as many as seven years older. Adams joined in three years later and, ac-

winning run. Bobby Lugiano faced one batter in the sixth inning and struck him out to earn his third save on the season. Alex Kapral threw a complete game for the Dodgers, striking out eight, scattering three hits and allowing only two earned runs. The Dodgers scored their two runs in the first on a two-run triple by Chris Smiga. Connor Morgan added a double for the Dodgers. YANKEES 15 DODGERS 2 Derek Answini picked up his first win of the season as the Yanks smashed the Dodgers, 15-2. Darren Kerdesky led the Yankees’ 17-hit attack with four hits, including a home run. Answini, Mark Roginski, Jacob Brennan and Michael Doggett all added two hits each while Doggett homered and drove in five. Joseph Brennan, Joseph Fioti, Nick Gashi, Cooper Lewis and Beaudyn Lewis all doubled to round out the Yankee offense. Beaudyn Lewis also turned in a sensational play in centerfield. Fred Lombardo homered for the Dodgers and drove in two, while Connor Morgan tripled. PIRATES 13 PHILLIES 9 The Pirates defeated the Phillies, 13-9, in a slugfest. The Pirates offense racked up 18 hits, including Sam Zondolo, Colin Marshall and Tyler Osipower’s first hits of the season. Osipower handled the pitching along with Dylan Wesley and Justin James. The Phillies pitching was done by Kyle Hromisin, Justin Thompson and Alex Magdalinski. Offensively for the Phillies, Eric Weiss and Jacob Stokes both had timely hits and Alex Magdalinski

chipped in with two singles of his own. PHILLIES 3 ASTROS 2 Jason Eiden singled home Michael Rother, who had doubled in the bottom of the sixth inning to lead the Phils past the Astros, 3-2. Alex Magdalinski, Kyle Hromisin and Donnie Thompson shared the duties on the hill for the Phillies. Magdalinski, Hromisin, Kaleb Konigus and Mark Shultz also had hits for the Phillies. Nicholas Kachur had two hits and pitched ﬁve strong innings for the Astros. Bryan Morio, Jacob Noone and Adam Kalo also had hits for the Astros. PIRATES 4 RED SOX 3 Zach Palfey had a walk-off hit in the bottom of the sixth to drive in Chris Banas who doubled to lead the Pirates to a 4-3 comeback win over the Red Sox. Banas had two hits in the game along with Justin James, Dylan Wesley and Zach Bloom, while Nathan Salus added a double. Bloom, James and Wesley combined to handle the pitching for the Pirates as they held the Red Sox to three runs and racked up 13 strikeouts. Wil McCrum and Justin Finarelli pitched well for the Red Sox in defeat. McCrum and Conner Maloney had two hits apiece for the Sox and Michael Anderson chipped in with a double off the centerﬁeld fence. GIANTS 3 PHILLIES 2 EJ Williams was the winning pitcher, scattering seven hits, striking out seven and allowing one earned run as the Giants clipped the Phils, 3-2. Bobby Lugiano came in relief and

cording to her current coach, immediately showed the dedication to learning the sport’s stick work and combining it with the speed that also helps make her a starter in ﬁeld hockey season. “We’ve been playing together since I started,” Adams said. “She’s been playing longer than me, but we instantly clicked on the ﬁeld. From that, we were able to pass more and help each other out.” Both have racked up impressive scoring totals with Adams providing more of the goals and Wilson more of the as-

sists. They are 1-2 on the team in scoring for the second straight season, helping Lake-Lehman to a 6-5 record in the first season of WVC play. After each provided three goals and an assist to the win over Delaware Valley, Adams has 76 goals and seven assists. Wilson has 40 goals and 29 assists. They are both over 100 goals for their career with two-plus years to add to those totals. “Mallory is more the quarterback,” coach Wilson said. “She scores a lot, but it is also her job to distribute.” When Adams went out with a kneecap injury last season, Wilson proved she could score more goals as well. The two Lake-Lehman teammates finished first and second in the state in scoring by freshmen among teams that reported their statistics to maxpreps.com. Wilson had 81 goals and 24 assists. Adams, who had a pair of nine-goal efforts, had 61 goals and three assists in just 11 games. The two high-scoring sophomores had help in the win over Dallas. Aleah Blazick matched Wilson in providing three goals and two assists. Cara Pritcher and Katie Snedeker had two goals each for Dallas. Amelia Jenkins added the other two Lake-Lehman goals against Delaware Valley. struck out the last two batters to earn the save. The Giants offense was led by Ian Evans with two hits, including a double and two RBIs. Kyle Sincavage and Zachary Holthaus each had a double and combined to score all three runs. Alex Magdalinski led the Phillies with two hits, including a double. Aiden Conrad added a double for the Phillies. DODGERS 13 PHILLIES 1 Alex Kapral let the Dodgers to a 13-1 victory over the Phillies. Kapral pitched four innings of one-hit baseball with 10 strikeouts. Kapral had three hits, including a double and three RBIs. Caleb Sweitzer added a triple and three RBIs. Freddie Lombardo had two hits while Matt Dolan, Liam O’Brien, Matt Wrubel, Max Paczewski and Connor Morgan all had hits in the win. The Phillies were led by Donnie Thompson who ripped an RBI triple. YANKS 14 ASTROS 9 Mark Roginski picked up his first win of the season and also doubled twice while driving in four to lead the Yankees to their first win of the season, 14-9, over the Astros. Beaudyn Lewis homered and drove in three while Derek Answini added three hits. Darren Kerdesy, Dylan Schuster, Michael Doggett and Cooper Lewis all had two hits while Joseph Fioti and Joseph Brennan rounded out the Yankee offense with a hit each. The Astros were led by Matt Dillon’s home run and two hits each from Nick Kacher and Nick Bufalino.

Mountaineer netmen better last year’s record By TOM ROBINSON For The Dallas Post

Dallas entered the boys tennis season with the uncertainty of an inexperienced lineup. Despite, that inexperience, the Mountaineers wrapped up the team portion of their schedule by advancing one round further in the District 2 Class AA tournament and matching last season’s 8-5 record. “My goal every year is to make the district playoffs,” coach Joe Pugliese said. “We did that again this year and came into districts as the No. 4 seed, which was a good accomplishment for our team. “It’s a little better than expected coming in with an inexperienced team.” The Mountaineers defeated Berwick, 4-1, in the team semifinals Monday. They advanced to Tuesday’s semifinals where they fell to then-undefeated Wyoming Seminary, 3-0. Dallas swept the singles matches in its home playoff against Berwick. Francois Ross downed Luke Whitenight, 6-1, 6-0, at No. 1; Tyler Tuck defeated Dom Scicchitano, 6-1, 6-3, at No. 2; and Aleksey Gitelson topped Blake Whitmire, 6-2, 6-0, at No. 3. Ross earned a seventh seed in the individual district tournament, which began Thursday, based on his singles play throughout the season. Gitelson had the team’s best singles record, going 9-2. Steve Wempa and Colton Powell gave Dallas a point at No. 1 doubles by beating Berwick’s Nick Oliver and Cole Gardner, 6-0, 6-3. James Garringer and Arlinson Reyes of Berwick defeated Frank Hullihen and Nick Mouldoon, 6-2, 6-4, at No. 2. “A few of the guys that had very little experience from last year that got to play most of the matches this year did very well,” Pugliese said. “Colton Powell did very well playing doubles for us. “Frank Hullihen is a junior who had never played on a team before. This is his first year but he did very well.” Hullihen was in the lineup for every match, splitting time between first and second doubles. The doubles teams did their best to extend matches against Wyoming Seminary in the district semifinals before the competition was halted when the Blue Knights clinched the victory with three singles points. Wempa and Powell were tied, 4-4, in the second set after dropping the first set to Matt Cartwright and Grant Klinger. Hullihen and Mouldoon took the first set to a tiebreaker against Peter Valentiner and Matt Obeid. The Blue Knights, who fell to Scranton Prep, 3-2, in the championship match, won by taking all but five games in the six sets of singles play.
