“I think how pretty the store must have looked with the milk bottles in different colors….” Reverend Glenn H. White Collector

Board to meet June 27 for final approval. BY ROBERT TOMKAVAGE rtomkavage@theabingtonjournal.com

Rev. Glenn H. White Jr. compiled a list of dairies in Lackawanna, Luzerne and Wyoming Counties., above. His goal: to write a more detailed history of Lackawanna County dairies.

ABINGTON JOURNAL/JOAN MEAD-MATSUI

Rev. Glenn H. White Jr. said his quest for collecting the glass milk bottles stems from a love for history along with childhood memories of the milk delivery man. “That was exciting for me as a kid that the milk man came to the house…it was so personal,” said White.

Got milk memorabilia? By Joan Mead-Matsui Abington Journal Correspondent

Clarks Green collector at 6,000 items of dairy history and counting

hey call him the “Milk Man Minister,” yet he has no connection to the dairy industry, nor was he ever a milk delivery man. And if a vehicle with the license plate, “MLK BTLS,” passes by, it’s a good guess that the Reverend Glenn H. White Jr., pastor of Clarks Green Assembly of God Church, is in the vicinity. White realized his fascination for glass milk bottles early in life in what began as a thirst for chocolate milk. “One day I said to the Burschel milk man, ‘Would you give me anything for these milk bottles?” He said, ‘Yep, I’ll give you something.’ So he took the milk bottles and he handed me a pint of chocolate milk off the back of the milk truck. We didn’t buy choc-

olate milk – it was a special item – and I started looking for milk bottles for him, thinking I could get more chocolate milk,” said White. White’s collection includes more than 6,000 items of milk and dairy -related memorabilia, including milk boxes, bottles, hats or anything that

CLARKS SUMMIT- The Abington Heights school board approved the preliminary general fund budget for the 2012-13 school year, by a vote of 7-1, at $42,201,160. The preliminary budget does not include a tax increase and has no consideration for liability. It also includes the elimination of five teaching positions. The budget has a structural deficit of $1,739,161, which the district plans to cover using their fund balance. Board members Gregory Madensky, Louise Brzuchalski, Michele Pusateri, Michele Tierney, Michael Fleming, along with Board President Cathy Hardaway and Vice President William Acker voted in favor of See Budget, Page 6

RANSOM TWP. - The Ransom Township Board of Supervisors held a special meeting May 16, at which they voted unanimously to adopt a resolution to enter into an agreement with Marx Accounting and Forensic Services in Scranton. The firm is to perform a forensic accounting investigation of the township books, records and other information from the past five years, at a cost not to exceed $7,500.

The investigation, requested by Pa. State Police, follows the resignation of former Ransom Township secretary-treasurer Kathy Zielinski, which was accepted at an emergency meeting March 19 after irregularities were found during an audit of the township finances, according to Solicitor Edmund Scacchitti. Although the original audit is complete, its details are yet to be released. Scacchitti said the Supervisors first need to finalize it at an “exit conference,” which was not yet sched-

uled. In a May 15 letter to the township regarding the agreement, Marx Accounting and Forensic Services listed the professional consulting services it expects to provide to include (but not be limited to) the reviewing of credit card statements, bank statements, utility statements, cash receipts, disbursements journals and the general ledger as well as providing expert witness testimony in support of the work and conclusions to be made from it.

selves to be a congregation, and built a small church on land that was donated by John and Jacob Dorsheimer.” That same year, a veteran of the Revolutionary War was buried in the cemetery. Occasional services were held at the church until 1910, according to a historical document provided by the Association of Lutheran Friends. That year, church property was turned over to a reorganized board of trustees of the Cemetery Association, who continued to utilize the property until the early 1970s. In 1988, a news report that the church had been vandalized aroused the interest of local groups, including the Veterans of the See Heroes, Page 7

Meet team ‘Boardwalk’

BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent

n a sunny and cool Saturday morning during Mother’s Day weekend, May 12, a crew of volunteers arrived at the Abington Area Community Park in South Abington Township. Some had hammers in hand, while other volunteers helped to haul building materials, raked gravel or used power tools as part of the Abington Area Joint Recreation Board Boardwalk Building Project. Tim McCoy, Recreation Board Glenburn Township representative, is project manager of the boardwalk building for which AZEK Building Products, Scranton, donated the decking. The “Walk the Lake” project was initiated a few years ago by a Leadership Lackawanna team, providing the foundation for this handicapped-accessible trail. “We are currently working on phase one of the ‘Walk The Lake project’. We are currently 60 percent complete with phase one, with a projected completion mid August,” said McCoy. Jim Gross, AZEK vice president of sales, said, “As I found out more about the project and the idea around creating a boardwalk trail through the woods around the lake, I knew AZEK Deck was a perfect fit… because of the aspects of our products and the great aesthetics.” According to Gross, this project will allow for access and enjoyment of the Eston Wilson Lake and the adjacent

park amenities. “It’s a recreation area that AZEK is proud to have right its own backyard and we wanted to give back to the community,” added Gross.Other businesses that donated goods and services to the project include Mariotti Building Products, who assisted in the pickup, delivery and staging of the decking materials ; Dalton Lumber Do-It Center; Hilltop Quarry and the Schultzville Deli. Representatives from local civic groups and organizations included the Abington Lions Club, Rotary Club of the Abingtons, Waverly Masonic Lodge, VFW, park partner groups including the Abington Community Garden, Abington Dog Park, Abington Youth Soccer League and Junior Comets; local youth from Our Lady of Snows Youth Group and Abington Heights High School; The University of Scranton and recreation board members.

May 24 event to benefit Dog Park BY JOAN MEAD-MATSUI Abington Journal Correspondent

Retired Clarks Green resident George Clark plans to attend the upcoming Dog Park Fundraiser May 24 at the Abington Senior Center,1151Winola Road, Clarks Summit, to show his support for what he believes is a vital asset to the community. He is referring to the Dog Park at the Abington Area Community Park in South Abington Township. Clark said, “Marie King (Dog Park organizer) recruited me early on in the fundraising and volunteer efforts. ... My puppies (Chocolate Labrador, Bella and Yellow Labrador, Sammy) are three-years-old and they have been coming here since it opened. We come here three to five times per week, and sometimes they’re here with a dozen other dogs. The dogs love the atmosphere and the people enjoy it, too.” King said, “Tired, happy dogs make for

better pups and better neighbors; dogs are pack animals and are naturally drawn to groups. ” Proceeds from the fundraiser will be used to pave the entrance and parking area; install a water line from West Grove Street ; for lawn maintenance; for mulch and wood chip deliveries; new gates; to pave the entrance to the small dog park area and for storm water control projects to minimize mud problems. The Dog Park was designed by volunteer David Gilmore, Highland Associates, built by college students and volunteers and paid for with donations. “Now we look to volunteers to not only maintain it, but bring it to a new level,” said King, who is seeking volunteers to help with projects . “Over the past two years we’ve installed trees, beautiful shrubs and perennial beds that need to be maintained and watered during the ‘dog days’ of summer. We have additional chairs

being delivered that need to be stained. We need someone with carpentry skills to design new gates. ” In May, volunteer Kim Scott built a shelf to hold hand sanitizer. The fundraiser will be held from 6 -10 p.m. and supporters can expect local wines, other refreshments, fine food and entertainment by Ron Pascoe from “The Wannabees.” Tickets are $25 and are available from volunteers at the Dog Park and at the Clarks Summit and Clarks Green borough offices. Some tickets will be available at the door. For more information call 407.1558.

ustomer appreciation is blooming in the small shops of the Abingtons. On May 26, more than 20 shops along Depot Street, State Street and the Village Square Plaza and other areas of town will participate in the Abington Business and Professional Association’s (ABPA) Customer Appreciation Day, giving a free flowering plant to every customer who walks through the doors. Sonia Wysochanski and Patty Lawler, co-chairs of the event, both agreed Clarks Summit and the Abingtons are becoming an even friendlier place to shop, and that’s the message they wish to send the community through this event. Wysochanski said she hopes it will encourage people to “get to know your local merchants.” Lawler agreed, “Shop local. We’re part of the community.” Wysochanski said that while some may pass by the smaller local shops, dismissing them as expensive or too specialized, in reality, many have the best prices. And they offer one-of-a-kind finds. Both co-chairs agreed what makes Abington area shops special is the personal touch put into each product, as well as the personalized service given to each customer. The Customer Appreciation Day is the first of several events the association is holding this spring and summer. Sidewalk Sale Days are approaching July 14 and 15. Wysochanski said on that Sunday during the sale, shops will also have refreshments to offer the customers. Overall, she said the association’s goal is to promote Clarks Summit and the Abington area as a “friendlier town to shop in.”

Steamtown receives new archival collection

The current and new members of the Little Sisters of the Poor Association Jeanne Jugan at Holy Family Residence, Scranton.

Little Sisters of the Poor welcome new members The Little Sisters of the Poor at Holy Family Residence, Scranton, welcomed 11 new members to its Association Jeanne Jugan (AJJ). The AJJ, named in honor of the Mother Foundress of the Little Sisters of the Poor, St. Jeanne Jugan, serves as a lay apostolate who share in the spiritual riches of the Little Sisters by participating in their mission of hospitality to the elderly poor. Following a one-year formation program, members help to spread the spirit of St. Jeanne Jugan by developing a lively faith and confidence in Divine Providence, a personal love for Jesus recognized

in the aged poor, and a spirit of praise. The AJJ serve as an extension of the Little Sisters’ work by participating in the pastoral, recreational, and cultural activities in their home. The Little Sisters of the Poor, who have been serving the elderly poor in Northeastern Pennsylvania since 1908, work closely with staff, volunteers, and benefactors in creating a family spirit for the residents at Holy Family Residence. They welcome the elderly who have limited funds and provide for their needs so they can live their last years in an atmosphere of respect, dignity and love.

Steamtown National Historic Site has received a significant archival collection dealing with three railroads that served the Scranton area. Park Superintendent Kip Hagen said, “We would like to announce the transfer of ownership of the archival collections of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, Erie and the Lackawanna and Wyoming Valley Railroads, as well as the papers of Samuel Sloan from Syracuse University. We originally approached Syracuse with an offer to help process some of their collection tied closely to northeast Pennsylvania to make it more accessible to the public.” Park Historian and Archivist Patrick McKnight said, “This addition will almost double the archival collection at Steamtown. We already had a good collection of regional railroad archives, now we have a great collection. I hope we can continue to build on the good work Syracuse has done with the collection.”

Our Lady of Peace eighth grade students help spread mulch during a service project at the South Abington Community Park.

Students DIG helping

Eighth grade students from Our Lady of Peace School in Clarks Green participated in a classwide service project at South Abington Community Park May 4. They worked hard all afternoon to clean the park and spread new mulch around trees in the parking lot area.

An Abington Heights High School senior, Victoria Adams, shown at left, recently saved the life of her niece, who was choking. Adams was certified by teacher Cleve Elmy, Abington Heights Health and Physical Education Department Chairperson, shown at right. [students] use that knowledge and the practical skills that go along with it,” he said. Adams recommended all of her friends to get certified in CPR and to renew it every two years when it expires, even if they are not in the school district. “I’m glad that I went through with the certification, because I don’t know what I would have done,” Adams said.

Abington Heights High School senior Victoria Adams saved her infant niece from choking recently. Adams said she was shaking and became nervous when her 11-month-old niece, Sophia, was eating a piece of pizza and stopped breathing. Adams said she remembered her high school training and performed two back blows on her niece, and the object came out. The high school requires all seniors, new teachers and nurses to become certified by the American Heart Association in adult, child and infant CPR. Cleve Elmy, a physical education instructor at Abington Heights, said that it is one of the only schools in the area that offers certification to students. Training also includes the use of an AED, or automated external defibrillator, with a practical and written exam. Elmy believes everyone should know how to perform CPR. He said 85 percent of choking and drowning incidents happen at home. “As a teacher, you always hope that they’ll

WORLD of choices

The second annual ’Tastes of the World’ event at the Abington Heights Middle School was hosted May17. Assembled as an end- of- the -year showcase of the culture and foods of the various regions by the World Language Department, the event provided a colorful experience for seventh graders. After studying each of five languages offered at the school (French, Spanish, Russian, German and Chinese), students were presented a cookbook and samples of international recipes and a multi-cultural performance. “We wanted to let students experience not only the words, but the culture. With the help of the AEIO and

You (Abington Heights Educational Improvement Organization and You), who funded our program, we were able to have our event catered by Accentuate Catering. They made Chocolate Mousse (French), Chicken Stir-Fry (Chinese), Apple Strudel (German), Chorizo and Bean Tapas (Spanish) and Latke (potato pancakes for Russian),” said Middle/High School French teacher Adam Baker, of Dunmore. With the fund, the department also secured a dance troupe, Barynya, from New York City, who performed traditional dances native to each language with costumes and instruments.

Grant sustains STEM Abington Heights School District announced that it is the recipient of a $10,000 grant from Project Lead The Way (PLTW), the nation’s leading provider of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) curriculum. The grant was made possible by a donation from Lockheed Martin. Funds from the grant will support the school’s PLTW engineering program. Abington Heights Assistant Superintendent Dr. Thomas Quinn said, “At a time when school district budgets are more strained than they have ever been, a businessschool district-non-profit organization partnership, such as that which Abington Heights enjoys with Lockheed Martin and PLTW, is extraordinarily important. This grant will enable us to expand our pre-engineering course sequence at the high school level, thereby offering our students relevant, high-quality training for the kinds of innovative work that they will be called upon to do in their careers.” Shown, from left: John Laboranti, Lockheed Martin Site Lead Director; Dr. Thomas Quinn, Abington Heights Assistant Superintendent; Matt Lockwood, Abington Heights Technology Teacher; Dr. Michael Mahon, Abington Heights Superintendent; Paul Laubham, Lockheed Martin Engineering Manager.

Students from Abington Christian Academy in Clarks Green recently participated in and were judged in district speech meets held in Allentown and Fort Washington. The district speech meets followed a preliminary schoolwide meet in which the top scorers in each category were selected. This was the second year that the academy participated in the junior high district level. District scores for elementary students are as follows: Superior ribbons: Caden Arendt, Nandita Boini, Madison Castellano, Joshua Jayne, Isaiah Leach, Emily Phillips, Eva Rappenglueck, Josiah Severance, Elizabeth Treat, Natalie Treat and Olivia Treat. Ribbons for Excellent performances: Nicholas Belles, Aurora Castellano, Delaney Jayne, Abby Phillips, Rachel Rinaldi, Clay Salvigsen, Drew Salvigsen, Dustin Salvigsen, Emily Severance and Jared White. Good ribbons: Joshua Jayne, Hudson Salvigsen, Isabelle Samsock, Ben Severance and Caleb White. Junior high students earned the following honors: Stephanie Severance was awarded a Superior ribbon. Excellent ribbons: T.J. Arendt, Eden Brock, Manaasa Boini, Brendan Comegys and Paige Schultz. Randi Fenton earned a Good ribbon.

FACTORYVILLE - At the Lackawanna Trail School Board meeting, held May 14, President Ned Clarke began the agenda with discussion of the proposed calendar, which contained an additional 16 early dismissal Act 80 Days (32 hours). Many concerned elementary school parents were present. Superintendent Matthew Rakauskas, who proposed the calendar, explained the purpose of the early dismissals is to give more teacher training time during the Act 80 Days. “It was never my intention to make it difficult for families at home with a great number of early dismissals,” he explained. “Although there are a number of specific things that we’re really looking at doing: training teachers on the Common Core Standard; possibly some RtII (Response to Instruction and Intervention).” Rakauskas said he understands the concerns from parents’ calls and e-mails questioning the early dismissals. He suggested reducing the 32 lost hours to maybe 18 hours for next year. Elementary Principal Dr. Tania Stoker explained the state of Pennsylvania adheres to many mandates, and the board needs time to rewrite the curriculum to meet standards with the Pennsylvania Common Core Standards in Math and English/Language Arts. Parents had complaints and questions about the early dismissals. Some parents complained their students are not getting enough education because of the early dismissals, and others said they are not available to pick up their kids at an earlier time because of work. Rakauskas said, “The whole idea, regardless that some groups may feel slighted by it or hurt by it, is to help our students achieve academically.” Clarke announced the board will table the issue. “We heard your concerns. We know that there are concerns. We need to work this issue with the school calendar,” he said. “It’s on the agenda. It’s going to be voted on. Whether it gets voted ‘yes’ or ‘no’, we will find out at that time.” The board voted to approve the following substitutes: Cheryl Fernald, of Dalton, as secondary assistant of the cafe; Kelly Hopkins, of Factoryville, as English teacher. They also voted to appoint Rajan Mulloth MD as school physician for the 2012-13 school year at a stipend of $10,000. The board appointed Mike Penthrak as head wrestling coach at a stipend of $4,750, as per the collective bargaining agreement. The board voted to approve the school district 2012-13 proposed final budget in the amount of $18,745,241.

the budget. Board member Frank Santoriello voted against passing the budget. Board member Jeanne Cadman was absent from the meeting. The preliminary budget is now posted on the district website, http:// www.ahsd.org/, for public review. The board plans to meet June 27 to pass the final budget, ahead of the June 30 deadline. Hardaway mentioned the possibility of holing a separate work session prior to that date to work on the budget. Several residents of the district spoke out about their displeasure regarding the potential cuts to the junior high sports programs. The cost to fund the seventh and eight grade sports programs is $40,000, just under one tenth of a percent of the district’s overall budget. “The reason the school district exists is for the benefit of the children, both scholastically and athletically,” said Jack Mulherin of South Abington Township who has two daughters in the district. Hardaway announced the athletic director Jeremy Ruby plans to attend the board’s June 6 work session to discus ways to raise revenue to pay for the sports programs. Mahon also announced that the administration has put together several options for junior high sports. The first option is to make no changes to the current program. The second is to eliminate all junior high sports. The third, which Mahon believes is the worst, is to keep some and eliminate other sports. A fourth option would be to institute some form of pay to play. According to Mahon, the Middle School has a “remarkably successful after-school programs” with over 600 students at any particular session. The programs are entirely self-funded. Each student is required to pay $35 for a six-week period, however there is a waiver for families who can’t afford the fee. “We have a model in place where our students are paying to participate in an after-school program,” Mahon said. The increased class sizes at the elementary school level were also a topic of discussion during the meeting. “Last year, we did not rehire 11 teachers, many from the elementary level,” Abington Heights Superintendent of School Dr. Michael Mahon said. “This year, we have five teachers retiring and in our preliminary budget none are being replaced. Class size on the elementary level is on the upswing. Our largest class size is 26. We anticipate having more classes in the 26 range next year, and we could potentially hit as high as 30. “I completely agree that particularly in the primary years (K-3), class size is a very important consideration,” Mahon said. “It’s something that Dr. Quinn and the principals keep as a very high priority. There are trying to utilize our resources with our teaching staff. The board is also facing extreme fiscal challenges. We are turning over every possible rock trying to find the best possible deployment for our staff to do right for the kids.” Mahon said the district plans to offer an option in the fall where students can to take a shuttle from a school where they have high class sizes to a school where the class sizes are small. Robin Domenico, a Clarks Green resident, stated to the board that she believes teachers should begin paying into their medical benefits into order to control escalating costs. “They need to start paying into their medical benefits so we can stop cutting from the kids,” she said. Mahon announced that the district received a $10,000 grant for Project Lead The Way. The grant was made possible through a generous contribution through Lockheed Martin. The program will be expanded to the Middle School starting next year. Board member Michelle Tierney announced that at the AEIO (Abington Heights Educational Improvement Organization) May 8 meeting, a motion was approved to purchase 65 Kindles for the Abington Heights Middle School library. Upon approval from the state, they will be purchased for a price of approximately $10,000 for the next school year.

The cemetery contains the graves of Revolutionary and Civil War veterans. On October 22, 1989, members of these groups were able to celebrate a Service of Rededication. In 1990, the Association of Lutheran Friends assumed responsibility for the care of the church and cemetery and since then has conducted an annual memorial service at the church, as well as other services and activities. This year, three services will be held: June 3, July 15 and August 12. They will feature music, history, a picnic, and services “to keep the church functional and alive.” “We should remember them (the deceased buried in the cemetery) in an honorable way and that would be by the upkeep of their final resting place. I look forward to these services and the ALF meetings who take cares of the church,” said Kerri Angel. “…We want to the preserve the history.” The Abington Memorial Post #7069 provide flags for the cemetery in observance of holidays. “Every year we’ve been getting flags to put on the graves for the veterans here.

MEMORABILIA Continued from Page 1

features a dairy name. At 11, the Chinchilla native foraged the woods and streets in search of discarded glass soda and milk bottles. At a nearby store he would cash in his finds for money to buy candy. He said, “Not every milk bottle had a deposit on it, so I accumulated a lot of bottles at the house that I couldn’t turn in at the store.” While he was away at college, White’s mother, cleaning the house for a move, called him and said, “I’ve got all of this junk that’s yours, come and get it.” Inside the boxes were, not surprisingly, milk bottles. White explained his initial goal was to assemble a set of bottles: a quart, a pint and a half pint, and display them. Today his collection has grown exponentially, following years of amassing, rummaging, digging at auctions and trading with other collectors. His passion for collecting the glass treasures has grown from a love for history along with childhood memories of the milk delivery man. “That was exciting for me as a kid that the milk man came to the house…it was so personal. I even have notes that I got out of the milk bottles that were written to the milk man.” One note, he recalled stated, “Please open the refrigerator and pour a dish (of milk) for the cat.” White added, “Can you imagine that the milkman must have had free access to the house when people weren’t home? He put the milk in the refrigerator…” Glass bottles had a reign of approximately 70 years dating back to the end of the 1800s, and by approximately 1967, they were eventually replaced by cardboard cartons. “I think how pretty the store must have looked with the milk bottles in different colors…,” said Rev. White. Part of his collection includes what he refers to as “church bottles” that “encourage going to church.” “Attend the church of your choice,” or “Buy War Bonds” were two messages inscribed on bottles in Rev. White’s collection. “They’re very difficult to find and expensive,” he noted. Among his favorites are bottles from Snook’s Dairy, which was located behind the Abington Community Library, near the oldest house in Clarks Summit. “I had visited the son, who was living there, and he didn’t want to sell them, and when he passed away, he left a note for his wife to give them to me. They’re really special to me,” said Rev. White. Clarks Summit alone had four or five dairies, including Harry Leach Dairy, Snook’s, Oldfield Dairy (by the Parker Family- Parker Hill Church was named after that farm) Thompson’s Dairy and Morningland Dairy. He noted that only two dairies in Lackawanna County are still operational: Montdale and Manning dairies. The best place to find old milk memorabilia, including bottles, according to Rev. White, are in old dumps. “I really enjoy the hunt,” he said, and confessed, “If somebody came today and said ‘I know where there’s an old dump,’ I would be rearranging my schedule to get out there…” While a trek could mean walking for miles, one trip to a dump could at times produce as many 60 bottles, with some that are “really quite rare.” A few years ago, Rev. White compiled a list of dairies he has been familiar with in Lackawanna, Luzerne and Wyoming Counties and his goal is to write a more detailed history of Lackawanna County dairies.

Infused with BLUES

BY ELIZABETH BAUMEISTER lbaumeister@theabingtonjournal.com

ld-time blues musician Jack Owens was sitting on his front porch in Bentonia, Miss. with his friend, Bud Spires, a blind harmonica player, when Toby Walker first met him around 1989. Walker, finger-style guitarist, singer, songwriter and storyteller, recalled arriving at the house with an offering of groceries—cold cuts, orange juice, milk and other basic items. “When I got there,” Walker said, “I told him, ‘Look, I brought all these groceries for you,’ and he said, ‘Well, we’ve got a lot of eatin’ to do.’” When Walker suggested just putting the items in the refrigerator, he said Spires just started laughing and replied, “We have to eat all this now...The refrigerator hasn’t worked in probably 10 or 15 years.” Sure enough, when Owens opened the padlocked refrigerator, all it contained was dried goods. “So, we wound up eating pounds of bologna and American cheese that day,” Walker said. This is one of countless stories that Walker, 56, of Denville, N.J. (originally from Long Island, N.Y.), col-

lected during his travels to back roads and front porches tucked away in obscure towns in the south. He said on his journeys to Mississippi, Arkansas, North Carolina, West Virginia and Virginia he sought out, got to know and learned from many great old-time blues musicians, most of whom are now no longer living. He has plenty more stories (and lots of songs) up his sleeve for an upcoming event in Scranton, at which he will teach a blues workshop as well as give musical performances along with his wife, Carol, who will accompany him on the upright bass. “The Faces and Voices of the Blues,” presented by PocoNotes, will be held at the historic Tripp House in Scranton June 8, 9 and 10 and feature Walker’s music and stories as the “voices of the blues.” It will also feature the photography of internationally -recognized documentary photographer Jim Gavenus, as the “faces of the blues.” Walker said of Gavenus’ photographs, “They are a visual time machine. They’re really wonderful...You can almost hear the cicadae

Who directed the new movie "Battleship"?

This Sunday, May 27 at 1 p.m. we invite you to put on your dancing shoes and make your way to the Dietrich for an afternoon of tango. First we will see the acclaimed movie “Tango,” which was beautifully filmed in Buenos Aires, home of the Argentine Tango. After the film, we will walk to Father Nallin Hall where Jill and Gehred Wetzel will teach an introductory tango lesson. No experience is required and admission is $10 per person. This event is sponsored by the NEPA Tango Connection. The last time we hosted a tango movie and lesson in conjunction with the NEPA Tango Connection, my husband and I gave the tango a try and it was pure fun. Argentine Tango is a beautiful and exciting dance. For more information or to make reservations for this event, call the Dietrich at 996.1500. In June, the Dietrich will continue hosting a variety of workshops and classes where you can explore different art forms and games. On Mondays, June 11 through July 2 from 6 - 7 p.m., Bill Herron of Nicholson will be teaching an introductory class to the Game of Go. We invite adults and students ages 11 and up to come out and learn the fundamentals of this ancient game that is still popular today. It is easy to learn, and in Japan, Korea, China and Taiwan, it is far more popular than chess is in the West. Admission to the class is free and we may end the class series with a tournament for all those who wish to participate. The Dietrich will also be presenting an Introduction to Stained Glass workshop in June. Join instructor Esther Harmatz Monday, June 18 from 6 - 9 p.m. to learn the first steps of working with glass to create stained glass pieces. Students will learn to work with a design, cut glass, polish, foil wrap and solder. Each student will leave with a finished piece at the end of the session. All glass supplies and equipment will be provided and admission is $60. What is so great about this class is you can see if you enjoy the art of creating stained glass before you invest a lot of time and money into buying your own equipment and supplies. We also will be starting up another Pottery for Beginner series next week. Adults and students ages 13 and up will have the opportunity to exSee Dietrich, Page 11

Dietrich Art student’s college dreams come true “Be confident with your work and don’t doubt yourself because it shows to the people you are presenting to.” That is the advice Dietrich Theater artist–in-residence Steve Colley gave Anna Smith, a senior at Abington Heights High School, as she was preparing her art portfolio during the Dietrich’s Open Studio & Portfolio Prep class. Smith’s background in the arts did not start in high school. She began taking art classes at the age of eight when she was living in New Jersey. At 10, she explored the medium of clay when she took a few ceramic classes with Steve Colley. From there Smith continued her art education with a variety of other teachers. In eighth grade she decided to become a graphic designer. According to Smith, “I think it is pretty cool that

A.H. students RUN the SHOW BY ROBERT TOMKAVAGE rtomkavage@theabingtonjournal.com

The Abington Heights High School Drama Society will offer a view inside the mind of a teenager when it hosts the Third Annual New Playwrights Festival May 24 at 7 p.m. in the High School Auditorium. The festival will feature 16 original student plays and monologues, performed and directed by students. There will be 10 short plays and 6 monologues. The program was started by English teacher and Drama Society Advisor John Zachary Monahan and Creative Writing teacher Todd Sharrow. “Every year there are more and more students involved,” Monahan said. “There are more than 40 students acting this year, 15 writers and 15 directors so there are well over 50 students involved with the overall production.” According to Monahan, the plays will cover a wide range of subject matter. “I think people will get a lot of different, unique perspectives of teenagers and how they perceive the world and view things in both humor and drama and all categories in between,” he said. Monahan believes there are many advantages for students involved in the club. “They get to put their heart and soul into something that they really care about and really are passionate about,” he said. “They get to spend some time doing stuff that they really love and are able to grow through it, because they get to learn a lot about empathy and the human condition and how we grow as people.” The advisor also thinks the playwrights’ festival offers students invaluable experience that most actors their age don’t have the opportunity to be a part of. “It’s a really unique experience for them because they write the shows, then self direct what they write,” Monahan said. “They also get student actors to perform in the shows. The students who have written a show get a really unique experience to see what it’s like to actually cast and direct a show and see the fruits of their labor on stage

which not a lot of kids get to do at this young age. It’s very, very time consuming. Most of them are actors who have been in many different shows, but most have not worked too much behind the scenes so it’s interesting to hear them come back and talk about it. It’s really unique to see them understand how much dedication it does really take to actually put a show on stage. Senior Aaron Fleming, who joined the club as a sophomore, has made many friendships through acting. “I was a real quiet kid and

it helped me connect with people,” he said. “It’s fun.” According to Fleming, who had one of the plays he wrote approved, writing, producing and acting out the plays takes a lot of hard work and skill. “The kids who wrote the plays and monologues are really, really talented,” he said. “It really shows what kind of responsibility kids can carry out because it’s mostly all our work, the teachers don’t help out too much. They are just here to organize the whole thing.” Brady Rippon, a senior, participated in the festival last year and enjoys how it allows students to think outside the box. “I’m not sure if there are really any other things outside of this at Abington Heights that let people display their writing like the playwrights festival,” he said. “I think moreso that the actual plays, it allows for the students creativity to come out.” Rippon wrote and will direct his own play. “It’s definitely hard being an actor and writer, but I think all the effort you put into it is worth it once you see the final product,” he added.” The cost of admission is $3.

Lackawanna College makes history

For the first time in Lackawanna College history, its baseball team will represent National Junior College Athletic Association’s Northeast District in the Division II Baseball World Series. The Falcons earned their bid by beating CCBC Catonsville in the first two game of a best of three series. In the first game, after scoring the first run of the game on a Mike Accardi home run in the bottom of the first inning, theygave up three runs in the top of second, three more in the top of the third and another in the top of the fifth. Coming to bat in the bottom of the fifth, they trailed 7-1. Lackawanna’s leadoff hitter Frankelvin Reyes was hit by a pitch. Their next two hitters, Mike Accardi and Lavance Anderson walked. A Josh Savakinus sacrifice fly drove in Reyes. A Kris Moules walk reloaded the bases. Josh White stepped to the plate and delivered a grand slam. Lackawanna tied the score in the sixth.The Falcons took the lead in the seventh when Crimi and Reyes singled, and scored on an Anderson hit. In the ninth inning, Lackawanna relinquished two runs, allowing the Cardinals to even the score at 9. In the bottom of the frame, Lackawanna claimed the victory. They scored the winning run after Crimi singled, stole second and advanced to third on Johnson’s deep fly to left field. Reyes followed with a walk-off single to end the contest. Cody Patton got credit for the win going two-thirds of an inning, walking two and striking out one, while holding the Cardinals without a hit or run. Lackawanna had no real hurdles to climb in securing the district clinching victory. In the third inning, Lackawanna scored six runs. In the fourth, Lackawanna scored on an Accardi triple and Savankinus base hit. In the sixth, they scored again after Accardi doubled, moved to third on Anderson’s sacrifice bunt and scored on Savakinus’s sacrifice fly. In the seventh they added four runs. The wins give Lackawanna a 46-10 record. They will play Scottsdale Community College, on Saturday, May 26. The game will be played at David Allen Memorial Ballpark in Enid, Okla. at 4 p.m.

Prep to add lacrosse teams Scranton Prep announced today that the school will be adding lacrosse to its roster of sports offered. The boys team will begin in the 2012-13 school year and the girls team will begin in the following year. The teams will seek to

play in the local district of the PIAA. Scott Gower, Prep Athletic Director, said that lacrosse is a fast growing sport across the country and in Northeastern Pa. as well. “There is considerable interest in lacrosse

within our current student body and among our prospective students as well,” Gower said. He pointed out that the addition of the new locker room facilities in the school’s Xavier Student Center make the additional sports possible. Al-

so, the school just this month installed an artificial surface on its athletic practice field which will enable its use by a number of teams. The school will now begin a search for its first lacrosse head coach.

Lackawanna Trail High School created a wrestling Hall of Fame in January and decided its first inductee would be the person who started it all. Ronald Evans formed the Lackawanna Trail wrestling program in 1967 and coached the team for 20 years, during which he won four Coach of the Year awards. His efforts earned him Hall of Fame honors. “It’s special that these guys thought enough of me because I’ve been retired for 15 years,” Evans said. “When I got the call from Jeff (Stauffer) I was quite pleased not just that I got it, but the fact that they were going to actually start this.” Evans, 68, lives with his wife Donna in Factoryville. He graduated from Abington Heights where he won three District 12 championships. He moved on to wrestle at East Stroudsburg State College, now East Stroudsburg University. He wrestled in 1962 before a career-ending back injury. After graduating from East Stroudsburg, Evans started teaching at Lackawanna Trail in 1966. A year later, he persuaded the Lackawanna Trail board of directors to create a wrestling team. “I was a little guy in school and wrestling gave me an opportunity to participate in athletics because I wasn’t really tall or big,” Evans said. “My senior year I won the district championship at 112 pounds, so I was always an advocate for the little guy.” Evans coached the Lions from 1967-82 and 1988-92. During Evans’ tenure as coach, the Lions won three team District 12 championships and finished second eight times. Lackawanna Trail also won three league championships and earned the runner-up position seven seasons. Lackawanna Trail also has the most individual District 12 championships of any school with 42. “These were good kids and hard workers,” Evans said. “I think wrestling maybe gave them the determination and the success to go on and do something after they graduated from high school.” Evans said Bob Guzzo, retired coach of the wrestling team at N.C. State, was a big influence to his wrestling and coaching career. Olympic Games gold medal winner Dan Gable also influenced Evans. “I met him (Gable) at a wrestling clinic in Syracuse,” Evans said. “When I was See Founder, Page 14

young, I saw him wrestle in the nationals. Most people consider him the greatest wrestler ever in the United States.” The Lions posted a 5-2 record this season. Senior Eric Laytos won the district championship and finished second in the state tournament. Lackawanna Trail will lose Laytos and a few other key seniors heading into next season. Mike Petheric, who wrestled for the Lions under Evans, will also replace Jeff Stauffer as head wrestling coach. “He’s young and he has the energy so hopefully he can get some help and build the program back up,” Evans said. “I wish him all the luck in the world.” Evans said it’s tough for a small school like Lackawanna Trail to get people to join the wrestling team. He hopes more athletes will try out for wrestling so Lackawanna Trail can compete with other schools. “I’d like to see them back where they were,” Evans said. “We basically won everything and took on all the big boys. I’d like to see them win the District 2 championship, the league and I want to see more bodies out there.”
