Dalton man accused of 2011 rape

FEBRUARY 22 TO FEBRUARY 28, 2012

OLYMPIC FEATS OF STRENGTH

A Dalton resident accused of rape allegedly confessed to police that he knew the victim did not want to have sex with him and asked officers to deliver a written apology letter to her.

Conrad Gockley, of Dalton, faces charges of one count each of rape, indecent sexual intercourse, and sexual assault, and two counts of indecent assault for the alleged Oct. 31, 2011 incident.

According to the criminal complaint: Gockley, the victim, and two of their friends returned to the victim’s Dunmore residence after a night of trick-or-treating. While at the home, Gockley allegedly sent a text message to the victim asking her to go upstairs. She replied no in another message, and he then asked her to show him where the bathroom was.

As Gockley was being led to the bathroom, he allegedly pushed the victim into her bedroom and “began to kiss her” and touch her inappropriately. He then allegedly assaulted the victim.

A forensic exam at Community Medical Center that evening “confirmed bruising… consistent with having been sexually assaulted.”

CLARKS SUMMIT- The Abington Heights School Board decided to put the idea of accepting tuition students on hold during its monthly meeting held Feb. 15.

Superintendent Michael Mahon, Ph.D., proposed the idea of implementing a policy to accept tuition students in January. During a February work session, board members asked if it would be possible to charge different tuitions based on students’ needs.

On Wednesday, Mahon was still uncertain if the district would be able to charge different tuition rates, but asked board members, hypothetically, if the district could, would they be interested in implementing the policy and begin taking tuition students during the 2012-13 school year.

The majority of the board members said they were uncomfortable approving the policy for the 2012-13 school year, but did express interest in continuing discussion on the matter and possibly implementing it in the future.

“I am not prepared to do it for this year,” said Treasurer Louise Brzuchalski.

“For myself, I need to study more of the charts that you gave us, and look at our population, and look at our projected enrollment.”

In other business, student representative Alexa Abdalla spoke to the board in an effort to keep one school tradiSee board, Page 8

J

ust in time for the spring, Abington Area Community Classroom (AACC) is back for its fourth semester with classes ranging from “Ballroom Dancing” to a “Wire-Wrapped Tree of Life Pendant” .

Dr. Dale Collins, 70, South Abington, has participated in classes since the first semester and plans on signing up for several this semester. Collins said he leans toward the cooking courses.

“I love to eat. I developed an interest in cooking, I’d say, 20 years ago, 30 years ago.

And I enjoy learning new recipes and perhaps even changing existing recipes,” said Collins.

Michael DeMarco, 29, Throop, will be teaching “Fresh Pasta from Scratch.” It is his second time teaching a class for AACC . DeMarco, who currently works as a sous chef, said it is inexpensive to make fresh pasta and that they will be using flour, eggs and a little bit of salt to make the pasta during the class. The pasta will be paired with a

variety of sauces, according to DeMarco, and at the end of the class the students will get to sample their pasta and take some home.

“I just really like sharing my passion for food with others…that’s why I like being a chef because I get to teach others and share my passions with them,” DeMarco said .

“The Fresh Pasta from Scratch” course has reached its limit for students and is now closed, but there other options for those wishing to sign up for a cooking class including “Pizza Demonstration from Start to Finish,” “Simple Vegetarian Suppers and More,” “Prepare a Beautiful Brunch,” “Regional American Cuisine,” “Spring Pies‘Hands On.’” For those who may not be interested in a cooking class, there are a variety of other courses being offered.

“The things we’re trying to offer are something for everybody,” said Anne Armezzani, Scott Township, a committee member of AACC . She described the courses that are

with a registration fee of $25; deadline to register for the class is March 8.

Mina Hart, 66, Dalton has taken four classes so far through AACC and is signed up for three classes this semester, including “Flower Arranging and Design 101.”

She said she is taking the class because she had wanted to work as a florist and aims

to learn how to do an arrangement. “This is where I’ll hopefully learn a little bit so that my flower arrangements at home will look nice.”

Some instructor’s classes will not only showcase their experience on a topic, but will also include part of their culture as well, as is the case

offered as, “small with a friendly atmosphere.” Committee member Paula Baillie, Waverly, said about the program, “after the winter it’s nice to get out and socialize.

And these are stimulating classes. ” Jennifer White, 41, Clarks Summit, owner of White’s See Class, Page 5 Country Floral, will be the instructor for “Flower Arranging and Design 101.” White said that the class will “put a little spring into our winter.”

During the class White said the participants will learn about basic flower care and how to arrange a bouquet, which the participants then get to take home.

“I think with flowers it’s really how they’re cared for once you receive them; changing the water, giving the ends a fresh cut, not putting them in front of direct heat or out in freezing temperatures,” said White.

White said that for those ABINGTON JOURNAL PHOTO/T’SHAIYA STEPHENSON taking the class to bring floral Dipti Pancholy M.D. demonstrates Dandiya-ras, one of the Indian Folk clippers if they have their own dances she will teach, in front of the traditional altar at her home.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Comm to host Pinewood Derby The Waverly Community House will host the Cub Scouts of Troop #152 for The Second Annual Pinewood Derby Feb. 25 at 11 a.m.

The Pinewood Derby is a racing event for Cub Scouts in the Boy Scouts of America. Cub Scouts, with the help of parents, build their own cars from wood, usually from kits containing a block of pine, plastic wheels and metal axles.

“We give the boys a few weeks to come up with a design of their own,” said Ethan Cannella, Cub Scout Leader of Troop #152. “Then the whole pack gets together for a car cutting night, where the leaders or a parent will volunteer to do the rough cutting of their designs for them.”The boys then will take their cars and complete any final shaping, sand them smooth, paint them, and assemble the finished cars with the axles and wheels. The boys all bring their completed racers in and have their cars weighed, measured and inspected to make sure that all of the guidelines were followed and all are on a level playing field. The track is set up for two lanes with a built in digital timer built that clocks the runs down to the thousandth of a second. The scouts receive awards and trophies for their achievements, including most original car design, placement within their dens and being the fastest in the pack overall.

Anyone interested in scouting may contact Ethan Cannella at 570. 241.8120. The Waverly Community House is located at 1115 North Abington Road in Waverly, PA. Shown at last year’s event, from left are: Michael Servas, Seth Blakiewicz and Santiago de los Rios with Wolves Den Leader Rachel Gilbert.

Editor: Pennsylvania’s award winning state park system is threatened by the Marcellus Shale gas drillers.

The Commonwealth doesn’t own the mineral rights beneath 80 percent of state park land, much of which lies over the Marcellus Shale. While the owners of the mineral rights have a right to drill, that doesn’t mean drilling in state parks is good for our Commonwealth.

Last weekend (Feb. 11) I attended Lackawanna State Park’s Winterfest – an annual event enjoyed by local families, with programs including animal tracking, crafts and horsedrawn wagon rides for children, safety demonstrations by the Scott dive team, search and rescue dogs showing their prowess and many other winter

activities appealing to all ages.

It is disturbing to think that parks which offer free programs of this caliber to the public are at risk from drilling activity.

The disastrous legislation pushed through and signed by Gov. Corbett doesn’t contain any protections from the impact of drilling in our state parks. I thank our local state Senator, John Blake, and Representative, Sid Michaels Kavulich, who opposed this legislation.

We must protect our state parks so future generations of Pennsylvania families can enjoy what I and many others enjoy year round – the beautiful outdoors at a local state park.

Sound Finance With Eric Weinberg

Tips to ease the burden of care When you have a loved one with special needs, making plans for the future takes on a whole new level of complexity.

You need to ensure your loved one is financially provided for throughout his or her life. But there are quality of life issues to consider as well, and knowing where to find the best support systems and resources is vital.

That’s why it’s so important to engage professionals, both financial and legal, who have expertise in special needs issues.

Many attorneys have expertise in estate planning, but when selecting a professional to help determine the parameters of care for a loved one with special needs, you will want to be sure the individual has skill and expertise in: ·Special needs and disability planning, including drafting of special needs trusts ·Special education law ·Guardianship and fiduciary services ·Public benefits planning ·Supplemental security income, Social Security survivors benefits, Medicaid and Medicare applications and appeals ·Social Security disability appeals ·Nursing home law and litigation It can be emotionally difficult to plan for the care of a child or loved one with a disability following your death, but planning is the best way to protect your loved one’s interests. Many people go no further than creating a will or family trust. However, if your child is unlikely to be self-sufficient in adulthood and will need Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income, and other government benefits, an attorney knowledgeable in these areas will prove invaluable.

An inheritance is typically earmarked to address quality of life issues, not the basics of food, shelter, and health care. However, you may not realize that if a person with a disability has resources above a certain amount in his or her own name, or receives an outright inheritance above a

certain amount, his or her government benefits, which are intended to provide for the basics of food, shelter, and health care, may be reduced or taken away because he or she exceeds the eligibility resource limits for these benefits.

An attorney with expertise in special needs law can help ensure your wishes are carried out. To begin your search for a qualified professional, the following sources may be helpful: ·State Bar Associations or the American Bar Association ·Local Disabilities Organizations ·The Academy of Special Needs Planners, www.specialneedsanswers.com ·The Special Needs Alliance, www.specialneedsalliance.org When selecting a special needs attorney, make sure you find someone with whom you feel comfortable, since you will be discussing highly personal and emotional issues. Also, keep in mind that an attorney is only one member of a team of professionals you will want to employ when making your plans. A financial professional who can help you identify financial products and services to meet your needs is also a very important resource.

While it is easy to put off difficult decisions regarding the future care of a loved one with special needs, the peace of mind you will gain knowing that the proper safeguards are in place for the longterm will be well worth the effort.

True blue support

BY JOAN MEAD MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent

M

ore than 500 supporters of Marley’s Mission were decked in formal attire to attend the 2nd Annual Blue Ribbon Gala held Feb. 18 at the Hilton Scranton and Conference Center.

Dining tables were adorned with white tablecloths and accented with blue ribbon and white toile and a custom -made ice sculpture donated

by Sculpted Ice Works, Inc. was displayed in the hotel’s second floor lobby.

“It’s an incredible crowd,” said Marley’s Mission president Eugene Talerico Jr., Esq., of the outpouring of community support at the gala.

“What never ceases to amaze me, all of us, is the depth of support for the Mission in our community. We got our start from the caring and generous spirit of our community and they continue to come out and support our vision at every bend and turn. This was a hallmark year for us as an organization. It clearly demonstrated Northeastern Pennsylvania really going above and beyond to help us heal children. We competed for two very large grant awards and were successful in both and both had as the initial phases – community involvement and community participation. We competed in the Pepsi Refresh Project and the Chase Community Giving Program – and between those two grants we were successful in achieving $50,000 to provide scholarships for kids so they can receive treatment free of charge.

“That’s not something you can do alone. It takes a community – it takes a region.”

Marley’s Mission competed with organizations in New York City, Texas, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and came in second in the Pepsi Grant. Talerico added, “The one thing that’s crystal clear is that when folks participate with the mission, they have the ability to impact the life of a child forever…that’s the connection. What we do and what they give to us, we put to work in programming and making sure that kids have an opportunity to live successful and productive lives.”

Marley’s Mission is a private, nonprofit corporation that provides equine (horse-assisted) therapy for children who have experienced trauma. The organization, which was awarded the “Best New Charity” in the U.S., “arose from the personal tragedy experienced by one family and their five-year-old daughter who was sexually assaulted.”

Trish Hartman and Julie Sidoni were emcees and Patrick J. Brier, Esq. and Erin Kane were honorary co-chairs of this year’s gala. Cochairs were Jeanne Giallorenzi and Rebecca Haggerty.

One of the many highlights of the gala was a video produced by Dan Simrell, owner of Dan Simrell Advertising. In 2011, Simrell produced his first video for the organization.

He explained, “Gene Talerico called me (last year) and said, ‘We’ve formed a foundation and we want to put together a video to help tell the story.

Regarding this year’s video, Simrell added, “I wanted to do something different from last year. So I wrote a song called, “We’re on a Mission.” At the beginning of the video it’s very devastating to see the statistics, but then as the video goes on, the mood changes and you see the work this organization does…and you realize what these people are doing…they’re really changing the lives of these children. Ninety percent of cases are unreported and 90% of them (these kids) never tell anybody. This is a conversation that needs to happen and I’m just happy to be part of this important work.” Simrell’s video may be viewed at www.youtube.com/ watch?v=OxPhh7q8rGg.

Brier said, “I approached a number of people to raise money for tonight and it was one of the easiest asks I’ve ever had because when you do what they have done in such a short period to be a nationally recognized charity, people want to come.”

Local scholars get firsthand look at Ugandan life

BY DON MCGLYNN dmcglynn@theabingtonjournal.com

ABINGTON JOURNAL /DON MCGLYNN

Emily Harasym and Dan Haggerty, from left, were among University of Scranton students and faculty members who recently returned from a trip to Uganda.

In a little more than two weeks, several members of The University of Scranton community earned enough memories to last a lifetime.

Emily Harasym, of Factoryville, and Dan Haggerty, of Waverly, were among 15 University of Scranton students and faculty members who recently returned from a trip to Uganda.

A philosophy professor at the University, Haggerty is also the director of the Special Jesuit Liberal Arts Honors Program (SJlA), which is a four-year liberal arts program reserved for the top 5 percent of the students at the University of Scranton.

This year “Christianity in Africa,” a course taught by Charles Pinches, Ph.D., chair of the Theology Department, was offered as an SLJA elective.

According to the University’s website, the travel course covers the life and story of Ugandan Christianity since 1877, including the Uganda martyrs, the relationship between Anglicans and Catholics, and the role of Christian churches in Uganda culture, especially related to education, justice and medicine.

In addition to Uganda’s history, the group also took the time to delve into its present, participating in a number of activities where they had a chance to meet the peo-

ple, including visiting a few hospitals.

“One public hospital in the town of Masaka… was heartbreaking. The conditions were desperately poor and deplorable, with very ill, and I assume dying patients… it was very sad,” said Haggerty.

Thanks to a gift of $1,000 from the grandmother of one of the students on the trip, the group was able to provide rice, sugar, soap and bread to about 150 patients in the hospital.

“Readers might wonder, ‘Well, why is that necessary?’

And it’s because hospitals in Uganda don’t cook, they don’t provide any meals for the patients, so how does that get done? The families of the

patients have to move…camp out back and do the meals and the wash, so this gift really was very useful to the patients,” said Haggerty.

Despite the conditions, Haggerty and Harasym said they were impressed with the positive attitude that everyone there seemed to possess.

“There is an abundance of joy and warmth and love, and incredible hospitality,” said Haggerty. “You feel honored and lucky to be there because you’re welcomed so much,” said Harasym.

The two said the conditions were much better at another hospital they visited in SouthWest Uganda, the Bwindi Community Hospital.

Bwindi Community Hospi-

tal was founded in 2003 by Dr. Scott Kellerman, an American physician, and his wife, Carol.

“It was beautiful, very hopeful, well- equipped, clean by contrast to the public hospital. It was another world,” said Haggerty.

“Seeing what people can do, like the Kellermans, is inspiring to me,” said Harasym.

“It gives me motivation that I want to do well in school so that hopefully I can do something as amazing as the people who are helping. It motivates me every day.”

Harasym is a biochemistry cell and molecular biology major, with a minor in philosophy.

Rotary notes World Polio Plus Day

BY KELLY MCDONOUGH Abington Journal Correspondent

Rotary International will celebrate its designation of World Polio Plus Day February 23.

The organization is comprised of more than 33,000 clubs and 1.2 million members worldwide, including the Rotary Club of the Abingtons.

Roger Mattes Jr., president of the Abington club explained the significance: “It’s primarily a way to bring attention to the scourge of polio and how far we have come, as a group, in eradicating it from the face of the earth.”

Rotary International started the Polio Plus campaign in 1985. The stated goal was to eradicate polio from the face of the earth by the year 2005. In 2005, it had narrowed down to being present in three countries and started to make a comeback.

“In 1985, when we started this campaign, over 1,000 children a day were being crippled by polio. There were over 350,000 cases being reported world-wide and reporting back then was not near as accurate as today. ,” Mattes said.

He explained how, originally, they were having problems with these countries mistrusting outsiders to the point where children were having their arms cut off by tribal warlords for receiving vaccinations. Polio is primarily a water born virus from contaminated water; issues exist in third world nations where they don’t have running water.

“Our club from Clarks Summit educated a community of girls by making a modest contribution which received multiple matching grants. We were able to dig a well in Kenya which, in turn, allowed the girls of that community to no longer carry water back and forth all day. Instead, they went to school. Clean water is a huge issue worldwide,” said Mattes.

Last year, the total number of cases was 647. The year before that it was 1,352. As of January 31, 2011, there were only 8 confirmed cases, none in the United States. Seven were in Pakistan and one in Afghanistan.

Mattes talked about the $200 million challenge. “Bill and Melinda Gates challenged Rotary to raise $ 200 million

by June 2012. We reached it last week and because we reached it so early, the Gates Foundation decided to chip in another $ 50 million. We are showing what one group can do with a lot of sweat and hard work.”

Clarks Summit resident Marvin Pollack is scheduled to address the Rotary of the Abingtons on World Polio Plus Day. In his prepared speech, he will talk about his life with polio. It began on a summer day in 1939 when his parents took his family to Harvey’s Lake where they spent the day enjoying the lake.

This was where he contracted polio. At age 2 he was taught to use crutches and told there was no cure.

“I was one of the luckier ones and just had to wear special high shoes in grade school. There were only two shoe stores where you could purchase these shoes.

These shoes were adjusted by a leather piece attached to the bottom to make up for the shortage of about ½ inch to protect my hip,” Pollack said.

In Pollack’s case, he was able to walk and partake in grade school sports. His high school and college years seemed normal. The memory of polio was basically forgotten.

Pollack married and raised two daughters while working his CPA practice. Life was normal until approximately 15 years ago when Pollack started to fall. This was the beginning of post polio syndrome for him.

Pollack applauded Rotary International’s efforts. However, he pointed out aproblem ahead for polio survivors growing older: post polio syndrome.

Pollack’s statistics provide information that a normal person has 1,000 motor neurons and a person affected by polio only has 250 remaining. When a person ages, he has a 10 percent reduction of his neurons. As a result, he has a weakness in his left leg.

Pollack sees a post polio specialist once or twice a year to adjust medication, check his leg brace and monitor his leg measurements. “No one knows what the future has in store,” said Pollack, “but I remain hopeful that I will be able to continue walking for the rest of my life.”

Those interested in making a contribution to the World Polio Plus effort can contact the Rotary Club at 570.347.1311

Council OKs seismic testing upon review

BY SUE REBENSKY Abington Journal Correspondent

FACTORYVILLE- Gas drilling knocks on the door and the process begins. And for the Factoryville Borough Council the knock has come and now the decision making is at hand.

On Feb. 8, Bob Poorman, permit agent for Geokinetics, approached the board seeking a permit to begin seismic testing in Factoryville. Poorman explained that his firm is handling the testing for many gas companies interested in the area and that he is currently performing the testing in Wyoming County. The area now being tested includes a portion of Factoryville.

“We can not do the testing in the Factoryville area unless we have a permit from the board and that is why we are here tonight and to answer any questions the board may have,” said Poorman.

After much discussion, the board approved a resolution for the testing to occur in Factoryville only when all paperwork and requirements have been made to the solicitor with his approval. Emergency Services Manager Christopher Burgey requested that the board put together a list with concerns and requests and present it to the solicitor for his review. The board agreed.

Poorman explained that the system his company uses is a 3D seismic machine, which produces 3D images that show the ledge of rock below the surface. This allows gas companies to see how the rock, faults and area are laid out so they can easily access the gas below the surface.

He added that the testing involves cables that run across the town roads and even through people’s properties and carry the voltage of a

9- volt battery. Cables are in place for 4 to 5 weeks.

“When we lay the cables down we try to put them through culverts so that are not on the roadways. Our company works 7 days a week and in all types of weather, except for lightning.

I have submitted to you tonight a surface survey so you can see the land laid out as we will be surveying. And we do have to have the properties owners’ approval to run the cable, however, if we have to run the cable through a non -approved property we do have the permit that allows us to do that as well,” said Poorman.

Poorman also explained that the company has a 300 -foot buffer, so they can not put the lines within 300 feet of a home or business. “We will be bringing in trucks that people know as thumper trucks; they have metal plates on them and they come down on the roadway and vibrate the earth to get the readings .

When the truck comes through, you will feel the vibration, but it is not a vibration that will cause things to fall on the floor,” he said.

Solicitor Paul Litwin said, “As I look through this paperwork, the borough is not getting a lot of funds for your company to do the testing, and this is a risk for this borough. We wouldn’t be doing the testing in the winter months, and I would like a list of other boroughs you have done work in, as well as contacts. You are only paying us $5 an acre and that is not enough. I don’t see any bonding insurance papers and right now you are not even paying Factoryville for the use of the roads. I also have concerns that this testing will affect our sewer plants … we still need a lot of information on this.”

Grant may save Waverly schoolhouse

BY BRITTNEY PIERCE Abington Journal Correspondent

WAVERLY TWP.- Community member Maryellen D’andrea attended the February 13 Waverly township meeting to follow up on the preservation of the township’s historic schoolhouse, at 1208 N. Abington Rd..

There is a possibility for a Keystone Historic Preservation grant approaching with a proposal deadline of March 1 through the Pennsylvania Historical Museum System.

The grant proposal would need to be submitted under Waverly Township since a committee specifically for the

schoolhouse is not in effect yet; however D’Andrea plans to hire a grant writer herself and only needs the use of the township’s name. The next step is to identify projects and phases, D’Andrea said it looked to be a “Good process for us to go through to compile the info and see where we’re at and what we need to do.”

Before moving forward to fund raising events for the schoolhouse D’Andrea has asked Public works director Thomas James to check the schoolhouse for hazards.

James agreed to assess it and see about any maintenance that needs to be done.

“What you’re doing is very honorable, and in memory of your cousins, I think that’s straight, powerful stuff,” said Gray.

Bill Montgomery added, “I think you’ve seen a couple hurdles you might have to get over but I think you have council’s blessing at this point.”

Nick Sujkowski thanked the board .

In other business, Countryside Conservancy trail coordinator Cheryl Ellsworth and trail committee member Christine Dettore made a presentation announcing that the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources received a grant of $566,000 in December 2011 for the Northern Electric Trolley

Trail. They handed the Dalton Council members brochures for the Trolley Trail, which is based on the idea of connecting the former right-of-way into a non-motorized community recreational trail. This trail would reconnect the small towns from Clarks Summit to Lake Winola.

Ellsworth and Dettore mentioned that they secured easement control of the first three miles. Using a map as a visual aid, they showed the route between downtown Clarks Summit to downtown Dalton, which is the currently funded Phase 1. Ellsworth mentioned that Phase 1 will start at Clarks Summit, continue through the Abington little league field, cross Arch Avenue to Waverly Road, continue through the Church of the Epiphany, and end at South Turnpike Road.

“Our hope is to be able to

preserve the trolley station as you all know that is still standing, and this is our first phase,” said Ellsworth.

Ellsworth mentioned that Phase 2 will extend from Factoryville to Route 6, and Phase 3 will be from Route 6 to Lake Winola.

“We want to get the community up to speed and also get your input,” said Ellsworth. “We are aware of some glitches, but by and large, this is for the community. I think it’s going to be a wonderful asset to the community. Our purpose tonight was to let you know where we’re at with it.”

President Bill Salva said, “Your hard work has certainly come a 180 (degrees) from where you started because I know you’re up against hard times when you first proposed the thought. I think you both deserve a round of applause.”

Continued from Page 1

with Dipti Pancholy M.D., South Abington Township, instructor of Indian Folk Dancing.

“I have always been willing to share my culture with our Abington community from the beginning. I think part of being American is being able to embrace many different cultures and to learn about them,” said Pancholy.

Pancholy has over 35 years experience in Indian folk dancing and also has published articles on Indian Dance.

Those who sign up for the class can expect to take part in what Pancholy describes as “a very social dance.”

The dance she plans to teach is Garba, which involves rhythmic clapping and moving in a circle and those taking the class will be barefoot. She will teach also Dandiya-ras, a

THE ABINGTON JOURNAL♦CLARKS SUMMIT, PA

dance that involves Dandiyas, or sticks. She said the dances she plans on doing are for any fitness level, “you can be 90 and do this and you can be six and do them.”

The Classes will be held in one of two locations, The First Presbyterian Church, 300 School Street, Clarks Summit, and Clarks Green United Methodist Church, 119 Glen-

burn Road, Clarks Green.

“They’ve been unbelievably generous,” Armezzani said about the churches.

BOARD

Continued from Page 1 tion alive.

Abdalla informed the board that there are rumors at Abington Heights High School that the school may not hold the annual Senior Recognition Day, which Mahon described as a “day off in school” for the senior class.

Seniors were told by school administration Feb. 9 that Senior Recognition Day was a reward to the seniors for not having a “senior skip day.” On Feb. 10, 55 percent of the senior class was not in attendance.

Abdalla, who did not confirm whether or not Friday was a “senior skip day,” argued that senior classes in years past have held a “senior skip day” and have not had the Senior Recognition Day taken away.

Mahon said he was unaware of any day when that many students were not in attendance at the same time.

“Never, as I understand this…never, last year or years before… was there an organized “skip day.” That’s my understanding, that may not be true but that’s my understanding,” said Mahon.

“In this case, we understand there was Facebook planning way in advance and we had 55 percent of our seniors out on that day, which is about 159 kids,” said Mahon.

Mahon added that a decision has not been made yet, and that decision will be up to school administration. He encouraged members of the senior class to discuss the matter further with school administration and work toward a solution.

The board also heard from several members of the community who are concerned with the state of the pool at Abington Heights High School.

Glenn Pettinato, president of the Comets Swim and Dive Parents Group, informed the board that the group has received a letter from Les Richards, the rules interpreter for PIAA swimming, which stated, “It has been brought to our chapter’s attention that conducting a meet at Abington is not in the best interest of swimming,” read Pettinato.

A reason Richards gave

was that individuals working the scoring table at a recent diving meet did not record the judges’ scores. The referees at the meet were recording the scores, but if they had not been, Abington Heights’ team would have lost all diving points.

The letter also stated that the lane equipment was not acting properly and needed to be tested before each meet.

Mahon said he had been made aware of the problem, and he has been told the equipment problem is being resolved.

The school board will meet again for its monthly work session March 7 at 6:30 p.m.

One of the recurring themes throughout the history of the Clarks Summit Fire Company No. 1, Inc. is a desire to serve and protect members of the community. On Nov. 8, the fire company will officially celebrate its 100th birthday.

“All of those men have wanted to help their community and 100 years later, I think there are still people who want to do things in their community,” said Linda Dailey, Centennial committee co-chair, who is notably the second woman to join the Clarks Summit Fire Company.

She followed in the footsteps of her father and grandfather, who were both members. Dailey joined the fire company in Jan. 1983 and has served as Lieutenant and Captain of the First Aid and Rescue Squad before becoming Assistant Chief of the EMS Squad. The first woman to join the company was Tammy Yarns, who paved the way for the approximately 12 women who are currently members.

The all-volunteer fire company was organized in 1912 and received its charter Nov. 8 of that year; one year after the Borough of Clarks Summit was incorporated. Joseph W. Hall, the grandfather of the company, recognized a need for a fire company in Clarks Summit and in 1912, a meeting was held at the Roll’s Hotel at the corner of State and Grove Streets. Prior to forging the way for the Clarks Summit fire company, Hall was assistant fire chief of the Crystal Hose Company.

Four years ago, members of the fire company placed a marker on his grave as a way to memorialize Hall, who held the position of chief from the first meeting in 1912 until his death in 1947 at the age of 90.

On Sept. 18, 1951, The Joseph W. Hall Memorial Auxiliary to the Clarks Summit Fire Company was formed and throughout the years, the auxiliary has worked hand-in-

hand with the fire company to serve the needs of the community, and to assist the fire company “wherever” and “whenever” necessary.

Warren Watkins has been a member of the fire company since 1962 and further described the role of the auxiliary throughout the years. ”When I got a call at 2 a.m., my wife would hear it (the phone) and she’d take the phone and call Jake’s wife, get him out of bed and tell him where it (the emergency) is. It (communication) was all done within the company itself.”

Today, calls are routed through the Comm Center using 911 and fire company volunteers are equipped with pagers and beepers.

“When the fire siren would ring – it was a long and a short (sound) for an ambulance…and four shorts for a fire, but you didn’t know where to go so it was all done through the telephone – Commonwealth Telephone. You’d call in and give a code name to the operator and she’d tell you where the fire was…or where the ambulance should go. Talk about antiquated…We’ve come a long way,” added Watkins.

He started as lieutenant but has gone through the ranks of captain, and first and second assistant chief. In 1964, Watkins became chairman of the fire prevention committee and along with junior firemen, brought a fire prevention program to the Abington Heights School District.

Also in keeping with Hall’s vision, the fire company has continued to modernize and upgrade the company’s equipment in order to remain current with changes in architecture and technology.

Lakeland’s Ryan Nichols shoots a fastbreak jumper.

Pair of wins puts Lakeland at top

BY TOM ROBINSON For Go Lackawanna

CHAPMAN LAKE – The same names tend to pop up at or near the top of the Lackawanna League basketball standings year after year.

The Lakeland boys proved this season that new faces can emerge.

A program that struggled through a combined 1-27 league record as a Division 2 member in the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons developed into a Division 3 champion.

Lakeland arrived at the top with back-to-back key wins over defending champion Montrose in a span of four days this week.

First, the Chiefs avoided a second-half playoff by handling an injury-riddled Meteors team, 49-30, at home in the Feb. 14 regular-season finale.

That victory meant Lakeland needed only one more win over first-half champion Montrose to take the all-season title.

The championship came Feb. 17 at Mountain View in Lakeland’s 59-48 victory over the Meteors, who got two starters back in the lineup from ankle injuries.

“We’ve been kind of

CLARKS SUMMIT- After a rough start, the Abington Heights Comets turned it on in the second half to secure a 53-22 blowout victory over Valley View High School Feb. 19.

The Comets scored just 12 points in the first half, but exploded for 41 in the second half to advance in the Class AAA play-in tournament.

“We got off to a slow start, but we were able to stick together and pull through at the end,” Abington Heights sophomore guard J.C. Show said. “We executed a lot better and made some shots in the second half, which helped.”

Valley View effectively ran a stall offense in the first half, which took the Comets out of their game.

“In the first half, we were missing a lot of shots and they were able to hold the ball on us, which made the game a lot shorter,” Show said. “We wanted to get more possessions.”

The Cougars took an 8-7 lead at the end of the first quarter when Brandon Bednash nailed a halfcourt shot at the buzzer. Valley View extended its lead to three points before Show hit two free throws and a 3-pointer to give

Jason Bamford scored 10 points in the Comets’ win on February 18.

Abington Heights’ sophomore J.C. Show scored a game-high 16 points in the Comets’ 53-22 win over Valley View in a Class AAA play-in game.

Abington Heights a 12-10 lead in the second quarter. Valley View forward Mike Rotell knocked down two free throws of his own to tie the game at 12 before the end of the half.

The Comets caught fire in the third quarter scoring 22 points.

Abington Heights nailed four 3pointers in the third quarter including three off the hand of Show.

“In the second half, we made a couple shots early so they were not able to hold the ball out on us anymore and they had to try and score,” Show said. “Fortunately, we were able to make some plays off of that.”

Before the end of the third, Show found Dalton Coldwater under the basketball who fed Jason Bamford for a lay-up to give the Comets a 34-16 lead entering the fourth.

“In the second half we picked up the intensity and played the way we should have been playing in the first half,” Abington Heights coach Ken Bianchi said.

The Comets allowed just four points in the third quarter and 10 in the second half, leaving no opportunity for Valley View to crawl back into the game.

“In the second half we played a smaller, faster team and tried to put more pressure on them,” Bianchi said. “It seemed to turn the tide in our direction.”

Show scored a game-high 16 points while Bamford added 10 for the Comets. Bednash led the Cougars with seven points.

At the time of this paper’s publication the Comets were taking on North Pocono.

The team will play again Feb. 24 at a time and location to be announced.

Step 1: The attacker, shown above in white, gets the take-down, landing you on your back and taking side position. With his two arms wrapped around your neck securing the headlock, the attacker controls your head movement with the leverage by sitting out.

hen the swimming season was set to begin in December, Abington Heights high school head coach Mary Gromelski knew that she had a young, but very talented girls team.

She credited the quick maturation of the young swimmers along with the leadership of the upperclassmen for the team’s success, and helping them claim the WVC Northern Division title.

“All the underclassmen wanted to be a big part of the team,” Gromelski said.

“They got down to business and worked hard, and are still working hard.”

According to Gromelski, the older girls have served as great mentors.

“Our captains have been great, especially with so many underclassmen on the team,” she said. “They have tried to show them the ropes and what to expect from our practices. The seniors have been very nurturing.”

Gromelski said she also believes both the closeness of the team and their determination led to the division title.

“They worked together as a team and really wanted it,” she said. “They pulled together in big meets and pushed each other. Also, they all truly like each other and the sport.”

Gromelski looked back to the 85-85 tie against topcontender Scranton Prep as a match that defined the team’s season.

“It was tied almost the whole match,” she said.

“There were certain events that we thought we needed to finish from second through fifth. We needed everyone to participate and they all gave 100 percent.”

Step 2: If the attacker is sitting out to the right side of your body, place your left front of the forearm under his chin into his neck. At the same time, escape your hips away from the attacker creating space. To support your arm that is under the attacker’s chin, grip your left wrist with your right hand.

The right arm acts as a vertical support.

Step 3: Push the attacker’s head away as you roll your body up, bringing your left leg around and hooking the attacker’s head. This movement will drive the attacker to his back. Bring your right leg over your left foot and trap the attacker’s head. The attacker will release the head lock. Opening his grip and arms leaving his right arm exposed and extended across your chest. Trap the attacker’s arm at the wrist by crossing over both of your arms securing his arm close to your body.

knew they had to defeat Tunkhannock to have a shot at the division title.

They responded.

The team won nine events in route to a 131-52 victory over the Tigers. Coupled with Delaware Valley’s (6-1) win over previously unbeaten Scranton Prep (5-1-1), the Lady Comets (6-0-1) were champions.

“The girls knew that for us for to win the division, they couldn’t take anything for granted,” Gromelski said. “If they didn’t win (that meet), they couldn’t win the division. They knew they had to give 100 percent and they came through with flying colors.”

Gromelski is confident her team can continue their winning ways into district and potentially state competition.

“If we stay focused, I think we have a very good chance to perform well,” she said.

“We’re going to start tapering the girls so everything should fall in place.”

The District 2 Class AAA Championships are set for March 2-3 at the WilkesBarre CYC.

grooming these kids since their freshman year,” Lakeland coach Dave Rosenkrans said after Tuesday’s win, which he called “the culmination of a lot of hard work.”

Current juniors Kyle Kiehart, Eric Grabowski, and Tyler Brady stepped in as freshmen on the team that went 1-13 two years ago.

They joined the current senior class of Alex Filarsky, Mike Striefsky, Ryan Nichols and J.J. Rojenches in creating an athletic seven-man rotation.

That athleticism created a pressure defense that made six steals while scoring the final 16 points of the first half for a 28-15 lead at the break Feb. 14.

“We’ve been emphasizing to the kids all year: defense, defense, defense,” Rosenkrans said.

The Meteors were prepared to offer a bigger challenge Friday and the game was tied at halftime.

Kiehart led the way as the Chiefs broke the game open. He finished with 27 points.

Filarsky had two 3-pointers in the streak to end the first half Tuesday night and scored a team-high 15 points in that win. Grabowski contributed six steals and five assists.

Lakeland was just 6-8 in Division 3 last season.

I can only describe the Dietrich’s recent production of A.R. Gurney’s “Love Letters” as delightful. Hildy Morgan and David Zarko dazzled us in their roles as Melissa Gardner and Andrew Makepeace Ladd III. They had the audience laughing and crying. I had never seen the play before and was awed by how effective and beautiful the simplicity of the production was. We would like to thank Hildy, David and director Jennifer Jenkins for putting together such a lovely benefit show.

Plus we are grateful to all of the folks who came out to enjoy the production. All of the show’s proceeds benefited the Dietrich Theater.

If you weren’t able to make “Love Letters,” you will have another opportunity to experience live theatre at the Dietrich in March with our community-based production of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” by Dale Wasserman based on the novel by Ken Kesey.

Dietrich Theater Program Coordinator Margie Young and I sat in on the cast and crew’s first read-through of the play recently, and you could just feel the actors’ excitement about their upcoming production.

Tickets for “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” directed by Jennifer Jenkins, are available for the following dates: Wednesday, March 21 at 7 p.m.; Friday, March 23 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, March 24 at 7 p.m.; and Sunday, March 25 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at the Dietrich’s ticket booth or by calling 996.1500.

Written and produced by 25 middle school and high school students, this production will be full of singing, dancing and fun dialogue.

They have even designed and built the set for their production with guidance from art instructors Amy and Steve Colley. As you may expect, their show is guaranteed to be out of this world.

Children who participated in the 2012 Winter Reading Club at the Abington Community Library are reminded that the club is now over for this year, but if they turn in their completed Reading Logs documenting the minutes spent reading each day since the club started in January, they will be awarded a Certificate from the library along with a “goody bag” containing coupons and treats. The Logs may be turned in at the Children’s Desk any time during regular library hours this week.

There is, however, an Ending Event scheduled to take place Feb. 25 from 11 am noon at which the children will get together to play Bingo, win books, and receive their Winter Reading Club Certificates and rewards. Attendance at this event requires pre-registration (please call 570.587.3440).

Registration is now underway for a special “Dr. Seuss Story Hour” to be held on his birthday, March 2, from 1:30 - 2 p.m. Children up to the age of six years are invited to hear stories and take part in games and activities.

Registration is requested.

New Adult Mysteries “One Blood” – by Graeme Kent. In 1960, when an American tourist is murdered in a mission church in the Solomon Islands, Sister Conchita, a young nun with a flair for detection, joins forces with Sergeant Ben Kella to uncover the links between the killing, sabotage that is threatening the local operations of an international logging company, and a sudden upsurge of interest in newly elected President John F. Kennedy, who served in the Islands during World War II. “Gun Games” – by Faye Kellerman. Teenager Gregory Hesse supposedly committed suicide, but his mother, Wendy, refuses to believe her son shot himself and convinces Lt. Peter Decker of the Los Angeles Police Department to look deeper.

The case becomes more darkly complicated by the suicide of another student at the same exclusive prep school, a death that leads Decker and a team of detectives to a nasty group of rich and privileged students with a history of violence and access to guns.

“The Bedlam Detective” – by Stephen Gallagher.

Sebastian Becker arrives in the rural countryside to interview wealthy landowner Sir Owain Lancaster, a rich eccentric whose dubious mental health Becker has been called on to investigate.

When two children from the area are found slain, Lancaster claims that the same dark forces that devastated his own family are to blame.

Becker must determine whether Lancaster is insane and a murderer, or if some even more sinister situation has brought about the current violence as well as the unexplained and tragic deaths of other local children in the past.

Roll out the red carpet because it is time for the fourth annual Oscar Party at Amici, 1300 Morgan Highway, Clarks Summit, Feb. 26 with the theme this year being Oscar Wilde. The event will be hosted by Eleanor Gwyn-Jones, Michaela Moore and co-owners of Amici, Mark Massetti, Sean Scanlon and Woody Wilson.

Gwyn-Jones and Moore said they chose Amici as the venue because they frequent the jazz night there and felt the atmosphere would be a good setting for the event. “It’s nice and elegant, so it lends itself well to… a red carpet event,” Gwyn-Jones said.

And a red carpet event seemed fitting to Massetti, who said that after being in business for all most 25 years, he and the other owners are selling the restaurant, Amici, and the last day of business will be March 18.

The free event will begin at 7 p.m.,

however for those who want dinner beforehand, Amici will offer a special menu beginning at 6 p.m. The dinner will consist of the choice of one salad and one entrée for $20, according to Massetti. The options include house, beet or arugula salad with entrée choice between chicken ravioli, vegetable ravioli, pecan encrusted chicken, orange roughy and pork tenderloin with plum tomato sauce and bell peppers.

The night will also feature specialty cocktails, Massetti said, including: a Marilyn Monroe, a Clooney, a Bogart and a Streep. Different titles will be awarded, including best dressed male and best dressed female. Trivia games, a musical number performed

by Gwyn-Jones and Moore, and an Oscar contest to guess the winner for each category. At the end of the night each entry is scored and the winner will receive half of the $10 collected from each entrant. The other half of proceeds will benefit Camp Create, according to Moore,

who is its Executive Director. “Camp Create is a camp for special needs children that is held every summer at The Waverly Community House. It’s been in operation for 12 years…”

The event has been increasing in attendance every year, according to Gwyn-Jones, who spends her time between Brooklyn, N.Y. and Clarks Summit.

Moore, agreed that the party has grown. “It’s really expanded. As our friendship base has expanded, so has the party and now we’re sort of wanting to open it up to the public, have people come and enjoy, because, I mean, really, people need more excuses to put on a ball gown…”

Those who plan on attending can dress with a turn-of-the century theme, relating to Wilde, an Irish Playwright popular in the Edwardian Era, or, as a play on Wilde’s name, they can dress in wild attire. Ball gowns, tuxedos and formal attire are not a requirement to attend the party.

Last day of business for restaurant will be March 18

Eleanor Gwyn-Jones, Mark Massetti and Michaela Moore prepare for the fourth annual Oscar Party at Amici.
