DHS students to hear Sandusky appeal trial Is it a learning opportunity or not? Parents wonder

CHARLOTTE BARTIZEK Dallas Post Correspondent

Convicted child sex offender Jerry Sandusky will NOT be present at his appeal court hearing on Tuesday, Sept. 17 and Wednesday, Sept. 18 in the auditorium at Dallas High School, according to PA Superior Court president Judge Jack Panella. Nevertheless, parents are questioning why the school was selected as the site for the trial in the ﬁrst place

and how appropriate the choice of a high school is as a courtroom location. Having appeal trials, which are argued only by attorneys, in public schools has been done in Luzerne County before — in 2003 at Hazleton High School and in 2010 at MMI Preparatory School in Freeland. The idea is to bring court proceedings out of major cities (Philadelphia, Harrisburg and Pittsburgh) so the general public might have a chance to

see the judicial process at work. The idea was the initiative of Correale Stevens, a Supreme Court Justice from Luzerne County. “The purpose is to better understand the court process,” said Stevens. “None of the defendants will be there. The Sandusky case just came up routinely on the docket. This will be a better, less damaging and realistic presentation than what kids see on ‘NCIS’ or the ‘Law and Order’ show.”

But others aren’t completely convinced. Dr. Joan Gruelick, an area pediatrician, complains that horriﬁc offenders are given too much publicity and notoriety for their offenses. “The whole thing is sickening. What’s to appeal here?” she asked. “Why make rock stars out of these criminals?” Gruelick wants public ofﬁcials and the press to act more judiciously when presenting criminals and their cases to the public. And, considering the nature of the crimes in the Sandusky case, there is the question of how appropriate it is

to have the case appealed in a high school auditorium with students listening. “It’s fascinating that they would pick a high school to hear this case,” Gruelick adds. Judge Panella insists that “All discretion and professionalism will be exercised by the court and attorneys and that any inappropriate material will be omitted.” Elizabeth Martin, a mother of a Dallas High School student and a Dallas Township See STuDENTS | 5

Back to school in style The Brass Ring Fund Committee put in an appearance at the Joe Nardone/Eddie Day & the Starfires Reunion Concert at Irem Pavilion on Saturday, Aug. 17 to initiate a fundraising campaign to secure the Wintersteen Carousel from the family that has maintained ownership since 1915.

Campaign under way to secure vintage carousel

Four-year-old Katie Esposito, shopping with her grandmother, Kate Olsen, of Shavertown, finds eye-opening, sparkling and shiny shoes at Gino’s Shoe Store in Dallas that she can wear for her first day at school. Clasases in the Lake-Lehman School District begin Monday, Aug. 26 while students in the Dallas School District return to classes on Tuesday, Aug. 27.

Kingston Twp. intersection now 4-way stop New signs to be installed Aug. 30 The Kingston Township Board of Supervisors approved the installation of a 4-way stop sign at the intersection of East Center Street and North Main Street in Shavertown. After holding several public meetings to hear public comments on the issue, the board retained the services of BortonLawson Engineering to conduct a trafﬁc study to

address concerns raised by the public and to evaluate stop sign warrants for the potential installation of a multi-way stop condition based upon the criteria in PennDOT’s Manual on uniform Trafﬁc Control Devices (MuTCD, 2009 Ed.). The trafﬁc study was conducted during peak hours of the morning and afternoon. Due to the limited sight distance and crash history, the intersection fell under the MuTCD requirements for a 4-way stop. Motorists are advised that the intersection of East Center Street and North Main Street in Shavertown will be a 4-way stop. New stop signs will be installed Friday, Aug. 30.

Plaques presented to Mathers family

The Kingston Township Board of Supervisors presented plaques to Mrs. Chris Mathers, wife of the late Supervisor Gary Mathers, daughter Nina Mathers Van Mater and granddaughters Mia and Clair Van Mater in memory and in honor of Mathers’ service to the township as a supervisor from January 2012 to December 2012.

The Brass Ring Fund Committee put in an appearance at the Joe Nardone/Eddie Day & the Starfires Reunion Concert at Irem Pavilion on Saturday, Aug. 17 to initiate a fundraising campaign to secure the Wintersteen Carousel from the family that has maintained ownership since 1915. The organization also hopes to build a pavilion to house the century-old carved wooden animals that once thrilled children and adults alike at Hanson’s Amusement Park at Harveys Lake. Since the spring of this year, the Brass Ring Fund Committee (the group that flew to Florida in 2008 in an attempt to save the carousel from being auctioned to the highest bidder) has made great strides in securing a location that would provide the best visibility to families in the Back Mountain. Active Committee members Rev. Roger Griffith, Liz Martin and Carol Wall, all of Dallas, met with Doug Ayers, chairman of the board of The Lands at Hillside Farms, and members of the board of directors who voted unanimously to grant preliminary approval to the group to erect a pavilion on the site of The Lands’ Victorian Park, located across Hillside Road from The Cottage. While the carousel may be operational at The Lands, it will be maintained, operated and funded by the Brass Ring Fund. Meanwhile, the committee continues to work behind the scenes to secure necessary permits and approvals, construct a footbridge across Huntsville Creek and come up with a design for an See CAROuSEL | 5

BACK MOUNTAIN BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT: THE UPS STORE

Local franchise is family owned and operated ELIZABETH BAUMEISTER lbaumeister@theabingtonjournal.com

One thing Larry Sprankle, 67, owner of The UPS Store in the Dallas Shopping Center, and his wife Sally, 62, said they enjoy most about running the business is the element of surprise contained in each work day. “It’s fun,” Sally said. “You never know what will come in the door. It (the job) can be problem solving…That’s what makes it fun and interesting. It’s never a dull day.” A short while after saying this, the Sprankles watched a customer, Marilyn King, of Kingston Twp., walk in with a horse saddle she needed to ship to a buyer she’d just sold to over the Internet. The UPS Store Assistant Manager Harry Harter, of Trucksville, set to work immediately measuring the saddle to find the right size box, then he and Larry carefully lifted the item, testing it in a couple different boxes to be sure of the perfect fit. This certainly wasn’t the most unusual item the store ever shipped, however. Not even close. That, according to the Sprankles, would be a Texas Longhorn, as wide as a car hood, with curly tips they feared would break off should they package it in an incorrect manor. Packing and shipping is the store’s specialty, and Larry said UPS (United Parcel Service) is the “number one” service for overnight shipping. He added the store provides a “Pack and Ship Guarantee,” which means if an item which was packaged by The UPS Store associates using new materials purchased there and shipped from that store is damaged or lost in transit, the customer will be reimbursed for the packaging and shipping costs, as well as the item’s value, repair or replacement cost. The UPS Store will ship any item, regardless of the size and follows its trademark of “Big or small, we ship it all!” “Grandma’s heirloom chair. A hand-carved mahogany pool table. Even your car,” states a store pamphlet. “No matter how big or small it is, we can get it to wherever it needs to go.” Packing materials, packing and shipping, however, are only a part of the variety of products and services offered at The UPS Store. Larry said the store also offers notary services, faxing, passport photos, a wide variety of printing services, mailbox services, office supplies, greeting cards and more. “We try to let the customers utilize the store as an office for themselves,” he said. Those with “house accounts” receive 24-hour access via a key to the front door, so they can check their mail and use the copier whenever they desire. The mailbox services provide an actual street address, rather than a post office box number. Customers can also receive packages at the store through a service called “My Choice.” Larry said the most outstanding aspect of the business is its customer service, which is his top priority. “If you don’t serve the people and help them, they won’t come back here. That’s so important,” he said, adding the people are the best part about running the business. Sally agreed. “We enjoy serving the people,” she said and Larry added, “And we know so many of them.” Larry purchased the business in 2001 which originally opened in 1996. Sally often helps in the store, but teaches French at Wyoming Seminary as her primary

His drawings have also been exhibited in “The Big Gamble” exhibit at Rehs Galleries in New York, N.Y., as well as in the “New Season, New Works” exhibit at Mainstreet Galleries in Kingston.

Friends Feeding Friends Campaign benefits food pantry

In keeping with its “Year of the Volunteer” theme, the 2013 Dallas Harvest Festival will collaborate with the Dallas School District and the Shavertown and Dallas locations of Thomas’ Family Markets to help collect muchneeded food items for the Back Mountain Food Pantry through its Friends Feeding Friends Campaign. This year’s festivalgoers are encouraged to bring a non-perishable item with them to drop off at the Friends Feeding Friends booth at the festival set for noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 15. Founded in 1977, the Back Mountain Food Pantry serves clients within the Dallas Area and Lake-Lehman school district boundaries. Located in Trucksville United Methodist Church, the pantry has approximately 232 clients, serving an average of 20 prequaliﬁed families each week who receive as many as 12 bags of

Students supervisor, has mixed feelings about the trial. “As a mother, I think the case is out of place anywhere near a school but they signed up for it and I guess they think it’s a great opportunity to have it here,” she said. While Martin and Gruelick hesitatingly agree there may be some educational merit to having the trials at the high school, Dallas Principal Jeff Shaffer is sure of it. “My job is to make sure that kids have an understanding of the legal process,” he said. “As a father, though, I understand the emotions everyone feels when you hear the name Sandusky. But then, you have to process it all and I think, overall, it will bring positive attention to the district.” Shaffer points out that teachers, administrators

and the Mock Trial Club at the high school have been trying to get the appeals court to come to the high school for a long time and he hopes the school board will approve the use of the school for the court trials at its next meeting. “The school board has the ﬁnal say on this use of the high school,” he said. Dallas High School seniors will have a choice to sit in on the proceedings as part of their Problems of Democracy and Government and Politics classes, said Shaffer.

STrAngE buT TruE By Samantha Weaver

* It was famed ﬁlm producer and studio executive Samuel Goldwyn who made the following sage observation: “The most important thing in acting is honesty. Once you’ve learned to fake that, you’re in.”

* Sarah Bernhardt, the French star of stage and early ﬁlm, who was often referred to as “the most famous actress the world has ever known” and “the divine Sarah,” often slept in a cofﬁn. She said it helped her to better understand tragic roles.

* Have you ever suffered from ottorrhea? If you’ve had a puscontaining discharge from your ear, you have.

* In the original “Star Trek” series, a pair of the false ears worn by Leonard Nimoy in the role of Spock would last only three to ﬁve days of shooting before they had to be replaced.

* I’m sure you’ve heard that President Richard Nixon was sometimes called “Tricky Dick,” especially toward the end of his troubled career, but you may not be familiar with other nicknames he had. In college his perceived lack of a sense of humor prompted the name “Gloomy Gus,” and his tendency to spend long hours sitting and studying earned him the moniker “Iron Butt.” * Records show that during the last seven months of Elvis Presley’s life, he had 5,300 different medications prescribed for him. * In 1938, Fortune magazine published a prediction that, in hindsight, turns out to have been rather egregiously off the mark: “Few scientists foresee any serious or practical use for atomic energy. They regard the atom-splitting experiments as useful steps in the attempt to describe the atom more accurately, not as the key to the unlocking of any new power.” *** Thought for the day: “Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it.” — Henry David Thoreau

Three-peat

After 17 years without a win, Sean Robbins dominates WB Triathlon

TOM ROBINSON For The Dallas Post

Sean Robbins got his start as a triathlete in 1994 at the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon. Robbins needed 17 years before he won the race for the ﬁrst time. Now, he is holding on to that title. After winning for the third straight time by swimming, cycling and running through the Back Mountain course in 2:10:34, Robbins said there are no wins in his career that he enjoys more. “Because of the sentimental value, this is such a special thing for me,” the 43-year-old from Shavertown said. “It really got me started and it’s my hometown race.” Robbins, a lawyer for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, found out what may seem obvious - that training to be a triathlete and winning a triathlon are not easy. It was a long road to becoming the champion of the Olympic distance race that includes a 1.5-kilometer swim at Harveys Lake, a 40-kilometer bike course that winds its way to the Penn State WilkesBarre Campus and an 11-kilometer run that ﬁnishes back at the college. “I kind of went through the school of hard knocks with some of my training, which is kind of natural

when people ﬁrst come on the scene,” Robbins said. “People sort of learn by doing. I made some mistakes along the way. “A lot of people have coaches now, but it was not so prevalent when I ﬁrst started.” Robbins also has some coaching guidance now and has refined his training practices over the years. He needed another major change this year after thinking a year ago that he might have been starting the decline that will eventually be a factor because of age. For years, Robbins had given himself Fridays off as his own “rule” about training. At the end of a week of work and life’s errands, he thought it made sense to take a rest from training. Robbins broke that routine last year in an effort to put in more miles on the roads and more yardage in the pool. He found out his body missed the necessary rest. “I struggled a little bit last year,” he said. “I changed some of my training and the things I did were not really working, so I thought maybe this is all catching up to me, maybe I’ve hit my peak and I’m starting the downward slide.” Now that he has recognized the value of resting in a sport for people who clearly do not rest much, Robbins’ performances

are improving this year. “By the time I got to Friday, I was always worn out,” Robbins said. “What I found out is that recovery was important.” Swimming is always his biggest challenge against his top competition, but Robbins was going strong at the end. He won the triathlon by almost four minutes overall, beating every other entry by at least a minute and most by several minutes in the running portion of the event. Emily Sherrard, of Philadelphia, won the women’s title in 2:24:36 to place ﬁfth overall. Wyoming’s Nick Hetro

Children and teens who took part in the Back Mountain Memorial Library’s Summer Reading Program, “Dig Into READING!” enjoyed a final party of themed games, crafts and refreshments on Aug. 15. In addition, each participant “dug” for a book of their choice to take home. Crafts included finger painting, sidewalk chalk designs, mineral mosaics, using mineral tiles to create beautiful patterns, and gemstone designs, using all sizes and types of beads to create jewelry and other items. Participants dug for dinosaur eggs like archeologists, using paintbrushes to gently unearth the eggs and find surprises within. Everybody took a turn “panning for gold” by putting their pan in the sand and trying to scoop up a gold nugget. The children won prizes or books if they found gold. “Worm races” proved to be the popular game of the day as the participants selected a worm, gave it a name and cheered it on as it crawled to the outside of the circle. Winners earned prizes and books. All the children, teens and their parents enjoyed dirt pudding complete with gummy worms, sand pudding (for those who could not have chocolate), freeze pops, chips, cheese curls and refreshments.

‘The Molly Maguires’ is classic NEPA AMY LONGSDORF For The Times Leader

Years ago when I interviewed Sean Connery for his then-current movie “The Rock,” I asked him about his memories of shooting “The Molly Maguires” in Jim Thorpe and Eckley Miners Village, among other Northeastern Pennsylvania locations. “Pennsylvania,” he said brightly. “That was an interesting time. Richard Harris and I went through all the places we could. There’s a lot of Mafia there in Scranton, as I recall. Scranton’s near Pittsburgh, isn’t it?” OK, so his memory was a little hazy, but his demeanor said everything you needed to know about his perspective on NEPA. He clearly had a good time shooting the gritty drama, which is back in print and newly remastered on DVD courtesy of the folks at Warner Archive. A box-office flop back in its day, the Martin Ritt-directed movie takes a look at the mem-

bers (Connery, Anthony Zerbe) of a secret society of 19th-century Pennsylvania coal miners who battled their exploitation by any means necessary. Richard Harris stars as a “Peeler,” or a detective who goes undercover to expose the Mollies only to discover he has more in common with the hardscrabble workers than with the corrupt lawmen who hired him. According to “Picking Up the Tab,” Carlton Jackson’s biography of Ritt, the ﬁlmmaker decided early on to shoot the movie largely in the tiny town of Eckley (population 150). The crew removed all of the telephone wires and covered the streets with dirt, which almost instantly aged the place about 100 years. Authenticity seeps into every frame of the intelligent, provocative drama. There are mentions of Tamaqua and Shenandoah as well as an extended sequence shot at the Jim Thorpe Courthouse. “The Molly Maguires” captures the look of Northeastern Pennsylvania so
