I have a brother
Tom Gorman well remembers the birth of his brother Johnny. Tom was in the fifth grade at O.B. Pettebone elementary school in Forty Fort where every teacher and every student in the school not to mention just about everyone in the small town where it was located was quite familiar with the Gorman family makeup: Tom and his seven count em, seven sisters. Judy, Kathy, Mariel, Susan, Beth, Joanie, and Margaret, from oldest to youngest, Tom will rattle off if asked. And now there was baby Johnny. One of the teachers at the school made Tom go from classroom to classroom to proclaim the good news: I have a brother. Tom recalls reluctantly complying with the request but making his mumbled announcement with head down from the doorway of each room rather than in the front of the class as the teacher had envisioned. And a few of my younger sisters were in those classes, which didnt make it any easier Tom said as he re-lived the experience, now more than 50 years old, during a conversation we had Friday night. First off, Tom was surprised I remembered the story which he told me about 17 or 18 years ago when we first became friends. Tom, a printer by trade not to mention by genetic endowment with a Masters Degree in Printing from the Rochester Institute of Technology, had been hired to run a printing program at the community college where I had been teaching journalism for a few years. If you ever became friends with someone within the first five minutes you met them, then you have some idea of how Tom and I hit it off. Tom didnt stay at the college long. He soon discovered he liked doing printing better than he liked teaching printing. I always suspected Tom missed having ink under his fingernails. So he left what many would call a dream job and opened a small print shop where, to this day, hell still run a press into the wee hours of the morning to meet a deadline and enjoy every minute of it. Toms love of ink and paper is no surprise to those who know him. He is the son of the late John Gorman and the nephew of the late Joe Gorman, two names that are synonymous with printing in Northeastern Pennsylvania. His Uncle Joe founded International Color Printing Company in the Parsons section of Wilkes-Barre in the 1920s and for the better part of the next 60 years it printed color comics that were read all around the world. Toms dad worked there all his adult life as did many, most of whom would say it was one of the best jobs in the area and the Gormans were the best folks to work for. I remember everything Tom ever said about Johnny because it seemed to me that no big brother ever loved a little brother more. Hed tell me about the way Johnny would field a grounder on the baseball diamond, or the way Johnny would turn the heads of all the girls, or the way Johnny would make everyone laugh. Tom just plain loved his baby brother. That Johnny wound up following Tom into a career in printing and later teaching printing indicates the feelings between them were mutual. Thats what is making it so hard for Tom to see his brother Johnny today. During the Thanksgiving weekend of 2009 Johnny suffered what was first thought to be a stroke and was later diagnosed as an AVM (arteriovenus malformation), something he was probably born with. He underwent six hours of surgery and remained in a coma for five months. He was 50 years old with a loving wife and two kids in college. Johnny was hospitalized for a year and, while now back home, has not worked since and perhaps never will. A bunch of guys one of them Jerry LaMark, originally from Pittston who know Johnny as a longtime Little League umpire, manager and former president of the Forty Fort Little League, want to do something to help him and his family. They are planning a benefit at the Swoyersville American Legion on Sept. 17. There will be music, food, beer and the like for a $20 ticket but they are hoping to raise some real money via a raffle. Right now they are collecting donations and raffle items. One of their goals is to get a jersey autographed by all the Philadelphia Phillies. You can help by making a donation to the Benefit of John Gorman Fund set up at Wells Fargo bank or by sending donations in care of Jerry LaMark at 26 Pomona St., Forty Fort, PA 18704. Truth is, no matter who we are we have a brother. Sometimes its one person, sometimes its a thousand. Right now, its Johnny Gorman.

New Wyoming cop shop honors slain chief

Building replaces oldest active municipal building in county
Associate Editor
By Jack Smiles
Inflation has increased the cost of constructing a town hall in Wyoming Borough a wee bit over the last 110 years. On Friday the ribbon was cut on a new two-story, 3,200square-foot, $600,000 building which replaces one built in 1905 for $5,600, not including $126 for a vault door and $96 for two steel cells. The event doubled as a memorial for Ralph Daley and Edward Brennan, the chiefs of police of West Wyoming and Wyoming who were shot and killed 93 years ago on July 28 and 29, 1918. The new building was dedicated the Chief Edward Brennan Public Safety Annex. The ribbon was cut by Florence Jumper, 98, a niece of Chief Brennan, the only officer in borough history killed in the line of duty (see story below.) Jumper still lives in Wyoming near the spot where her uncle was gunned down. Given that the old building

was the oldest active municipal building in the county, older than
the county courthouse by eight years, some consideration was
given to preserving it, but a thorough inspection showed that res-
toring the building and bringing it up to code would have cost three to five times more than demolition and new construction. The old building was demolished last year, but to preserve some of its structural integrity some of the original stone, including the corner stone, was reused on the first floor and window sills. The cornerstone is inset into a corner of the building next to the entrance to the police headquarters on Breeze Street. The new building also features a stone inlaid with a silhouette of the Wyoming Monument in the center of the front of the building facing Wyoming Avenue. The ornamental spire, or pinnacle, atop the center of the roof was inspired by the original bell tower. Money for the old building came from a voter-approved bond issue. Money for the new building came from the Mohegan Sun Casino. The Department of Community and Economic Developments

The strange case of the murdered police chiefs

Associate Editor
By Jack Smiles
Patrolling on foot on the night of July 28 in 1918, West Wyoming police Chief Ralph Daley encountered a group of young men loitering outside an ice cream parlor blocking the sidewalk on West Eighth Street between 10 and 11 oclock. As he had been ordered by the boroughs burgess, or mayor, to crackdown on gangs blocking sidewalks, Daley asked the mendescribed as Italians in police reports and newspaper articles to move. When they refused Daley gently, as described in one version of events, pushed one the men who was identified as Louis Mancino, 24. Mancino either pushed back or punched Daley. Daley hit Mancino either in the hand or head with his night stick. At that instant the ice cream parlor lights went dark and two

shots rang out. One of the .32 caliber steel-tipped bullets fired hit Daley just above his shield,
passed through his heart and out his back. He fell to the sidewalk and bled to death in minutes, as the group of men scattered into the darkness. The police immediately identified Mancino as a suspect and learned he was on the lam with a friend, Antonio Tony Rizzo, 20. Three hours later around 3 a.m. on the morning of the 29th, Wyoming Police Chief Edward Brennan and Officer Hiram Long were stopping vehicles and teams on Wyoming Avenue as part of the investigation into Daleys slaying, when they were told the suspect had been seen in the area of First Street. Telling Officer Long to continue the road block, Brennan went to investigate. Minutes later two shots were heard. When Brennan did not return to the road block, Long thought Brennan had fired the shots and was chasing the suspects. But Bren-
nan may not have been armed. His niece Florence Jumper, 98, was five then. She said Brennan had been rousted out of bed by a phone call after a day of blueberry picking and hurriedly left his house on Fourth Street without his gun and holster. Meanwhile a posse of all 45 state policemen from the Wyoming Troop P, private policemen (what we would call security guards today), county detectives, and hastily deputized citizens were scouring the area in automobiles, on horseback and on foot, while borough police in Exeter and West Pittston set up perimeters. One of the state policemen found Brennan dead in bushes along the avenue. Like Daley he had been shot through in the heart and neck. Into the early morning hours the posse searched the Wyoming flats through corn fields, cabbage fields and swamps, where
State Trooper McGee found Rizzo near the rivers edge around 6 a.m. and subdued him with his night stick. He was described as having a bedraggled appearance. His pants were wet to the knees and his shirt torn. He was not armed. Mancino was not with him. Rizzo said he was visiting from Buffalo and was in the cornfield because he had nowhere to sleep. In the light of day Mancinos shirt was found by the river leading police to theorize he swam across the river to Pittston where he was being harbored by friends. That evening Rizzo, after an intense grilling, confessed to killing Daley and was arraigned for murder. Mancinos comely 16-year-old wife Grace Mancino, testifying through an interpreter, said she was at home not

Never to young for old-fashioned learning

Non-profit art-based school for two to four year olds opening Sept. 6
By Jack Smiles
Associate Editor
How about an old fashioned preschool without computers, toys or TVs? How about an oldfashioned preschool where kids learn cursive writing and manners? Parents looking for such a preschool will find such a learning venue for two and four-year-olds at The First Presbyterian Church in West Pittston on the corner of Exeter Avenue and Warren Street. Gina Malsky came up with the idea and it comes under the umbrella of her Artsyouniverse Foundation a non-profit (501c3) art coop in Wilkes-Barre. She calls the new school, which will open on September 6, the Work of Art Learning Center. Malsky, Francene Carabetta, and Jen Vogel are the instructors. Malsky said rather than rent commercial space she wanted a non-profit venue which could be helped by such a school moving
in. Remembering when her daughter Annas Daisy Scout troop met at the First Presbyterian church, she called Reverend Rev. Jim Thyren there and he invited her for a tour and they struck a deal. A little extra income for the church, Malsky said, and great venue for the school, a perfect win-win situation. Malsky said the school is designed to teach children preschool fundamentals through the arts. Students will learn their ABCs and how to write their names, but they will also learn communication skills which I believe is lacking in children today like simply saying how to say Good Morning or Hello, my name is... A typical day of learning starts with a music circle and stretch, she continued. Moving on to dance or karate, enjoying a healthy snack, learning numbers, letters, maps and spelling through puzzles. Cooking is a fun and creative way of teaching
math skills. Manners are also a big part of the program. Just good old-fashion learning will be taught. No TVs and no toys. Sessions are only two-andone-half hours so the younger kids wont be overwhelmed Classes will begin on Tuesday, September 6, and run Monday through Thursday thereafter. The morning session is 8:4511:15 and the afternoon Session is 12:30-3:00pm. Monthly tuition is $250.00 Check out the open house on Thursday, August 11, at 10 a.m. Call Gina Malsky with questions 905-7308 or email her at lmalsky@aol.com

OUR OPINION
Drilling impact here?

State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, DWilkes-Barre, is circulating a new bill proposing a tax on Marcellus Shale natural gas extraction. Pashinskis bill would put the money raised in a lock box until the legislature decides how to divvy it up. A tax is a tax by any other name, but we would prefer the extraction tax be called an impact fee. Why? Because we want the money to go, 100 percent of it, to the local municipalities which are impacted by the drilling and truck traffic and not into the black hole that is the state treasury. That raises an interesting question. How would it be determined which municipalites are impacted? The answer is obvious in towns where the gas companies are drilling, but what about us? Gas company trucks travel on Rt. 92 in Exeter Township, Exeter Avenue in West Pittston, Main Street in Pittston and Coxton Road in Duryea on their way to the Coxton Railroad yards to pick up the sand used in the drilling process. Dont get us wrong. Were for drilling and lower natural gas prices. We say the sound of those truck wheels is the sound of commerce, but the trucks are heavy and plentiful and will certainly impact the condition of the local roads. If the roads these trucks use deteriorate before their time, wouldnt it be fair that our local towns get some of the impact fee money to fix the roads?

Questions why storm/sewer drains go unrepaired

I was very disappointed at the July 20 Pittston City Council meeting when the mayor and council did not act on any bids to repair the 23 worse storm/sewer drains. We were told the bids were just too high. In October, 2010, the Pittston City sewer maintenance fund had a balance of $283,872.00 and not one caved-in drain was repaired on Searle, Lambert or Parsonage streets in 2010. In 2008 the fund had a balance of $123,402.50 of which only $717.50 (according to sewer-maintenance funds records I was shown) was spent on actual sewer repairs. I could go on and on with numbers but that would not get the streets paved or the drains repaired. Also, I would like to add my two cents on the current fiscal disaster our country is in. If I started two wars in 2002, I would have pushed Congress to enact a special 5 or 10% war tax to pay for them. Where did former President Bush think he would get the money for these disasters? What would have happened in 1941 if we waited nine years to train the army and police like we are doing in those two countries? Why do we have the smartest people in Washington doing the dumbest things? I could ask the same question about the people in our own area. Frank Sheperis

MOTHERS DAZE
I realize that some of you may snap open The Dispatch every other week to this page, scan the first paragraph, sigh deeply and yawn, heavily and with skeptical disappointment. I mean, how many damn times can I take you through the horrific, yet significant, stages of my kids lives? Apparently about 318 times. If I were you, Id be sick of me, too, and go straight to the Nutrition Corner, instead. However, its all about me, and this venting via print is cheaper than therapy. So, here we are. Right on schedule. I know I wrote numerous columns about my oldest son when he turned 13. And then the 14 yearold follow-up and the 15 year-old tirade. We have now arrived at the Port-of-Call I like to call 16With-a-Death-Wish. I realize its a mere layover en route to the trip of 17-and-Uber-Obnoxous and 18-and Thinks-Hes 21 columns but for now, we must dissect this latest bump in my road. Lately, at home only of course, the boy has decided that he is a man of leisure and privilege. Which he is most decidedly NOT. His commentary often reflects his illusion of the good life. Its funny. And weird. For example, he actually asked me yesterday why they dont sell kiwi fruit pre-peeled. He thought it was such a drag to have to peel the prickly skin in order to get to the actual fruit. Im afraid that if I buy a cantaloupe, he may actually hire someone to free the skin from the melon on his behalf. Where did he come from? Strangely, outside the home, he isnt lazy by any means but he is lets just say a little sluggish, like a clogged drain, at times. The boy actually calls me on his cell phone from the second floor toilet to ask me to request a fresh roll of toilet paper. He will not leave the warm toilet seat to fetch his own toilet paper. And I, being a moron, fetch it for him! I know. Dont say it. Enabler. Enabler. Enabler. I overheard him chatting with one of our dogs the other day, whispering, Youre so lucky, buddy. The world is your toilet. You can go, like, anywhere. Except on the living room carpet. You know how Marias vein pops out in her temple when you do that. But otherwiseits all good, doggy. Okayhuh? A dogs life is better than his own? Really? I dont believe I have ever led him around by a leash or fed him a Milk Boneohexcept that one time during a game of Truth or Dare. He chose dare, andoh, never mind. The boys life is better than a dogs life. Youll have to trust me on this. Sometimes I fear that I lead by example. I sometimes whine, myself. Sometimes! If I come home from work and have to clean-up and make dinner then do the laundry, I get cranky. Then, no one eats the dinner and I may or may not spin out of control. I was spewing these very words to my son as I picked him up from work last Thursday. It was a definite whine-fest. He looked at me and stated: Please, woman! I just stood on my feet for 8 hours in 110 degree kitchen washing dishes and my dogs
The son also rises

are barking! I dismissed him with that look: Boo. Hoo. Im almost 50 and my poor legs look like a GPS map of Hazelton. And lets not forget youve never given birth to a baby. A baby whose head was a template for a volley ball. Youre young. Youre washing dishes. Not giving birth. Not picking coal and not fighting in the Middle East. Toughen up. He sighed heavily and muttered under his breath: YOU toughen up, Old Lady. I stopped the car and opened the door. He may still be somewhere in Exeter. If you see a rag-tag, whiny dishwasher roaming the streets, do not pick him up. He is grounded. Again. Still. If he wasnt in enough trouble, later that night, as I was watching possibly the best hour of enthralling TV ever, Teen Mom 2, the same son actually said to me: Okay, Toots. Give me the remote; its waaay past your bedtime. My feet are still killing me and they are now worse since you made me walk home from Exeter. Absolutely not! Teen Mom Farah is suing her mother! I cant miss that! I was standing firm, but ten minutes later I was dead asleep and he got the stupid remote by default. Later, half awake, I groggily heard him talking out loud, yet he was the only one, besides me, in the room. I sat upright and screeched: Who in Gods name are you talking to? What does Microsoft knows how to kick me when Im down even mean??? Youre scaring me! Im talking to the game, Mom! Wonderful. Instead of digging though his summer reading assignment, he is putting real brain power into a game called Assassins Creed. This is why he stole my remote? This is what Ive raised? This is my lineage? This game is not hard, son. Life. Is. Hard. REAL LIFE, not this Neanderthal activity. You are learning nothing nothing! I have news for you, Maria, this is educational. In fact, what you see here actually occurred during the time of Leonardo da Vinci. Silence. How did you surmise that, pray tell? Because the game told me so! Oh, brother. Im comforting myself, as I always do, with the mantra of Its just a phasejust a phase! Hell be a grown-up in no time at all. And, I can tell you from the bottom of my heart, the lad will be a stellar grown-up. I know this because although he makes me grit my teeth until my molars are dust, he also, more times than not, impresses me. He is polite, articulate and smart. He is a wrestler by trade and there has never been a more devoted one. He works harder at wrestling than I have ever worked at anything in my entire life. Its called dedication, I think, and the boy has it in spades. What he doesnt have is the will to peel fruit or get his own toilet paper. Lets hope he figures it all out by the time I write my 26 years-old-and Still-Living-at-Home column. God help me.
How safe is your cookware?

(Written in party by Amy Tomasko) Recently I took a second look at my skillets which I use every day. Personally I like to cook, however, at times I am as guilty as the next person when it comes to taking a second look at the pots and pans we use every day. Why take a second look? The skillets that I use have a coating on them to prevent foods from sticking. Often though over time fine cut marks appear which then lifts the coating off the pan and potentially into the foods that I and my family eats. Is it harmful? Read on. A few questions should pop in your mind when looking at buying new cookware. While purchasing cookware, you may ask yourself the following questions. Which are good conductors of heat? What will last the longest? What is the best bargain? These are all important questions but it is also crucial to keep in mind the safety and then how to maintain the cookware you are considering to purchase. The following recommendations from Clemson Cooperative Extension will help you to choose safe cookware and properly maintain it over time. First, I receive many calls about the safety of storing acidic foods in aluminum pots and pans. Aluminum is in air, water, soil, plants, animals, foods and household products. More than half of all cookware sold today is made of aluminum, usually coated with nonstick finishes or treated in some way to harden the structure and make it more scratch-resistant. There is no evidence that aluminum causes Alzheimers disease as was once suggested by researchers. However, for those who would like to avoid exposure to aluminum, the best way would be to avoid antacids containing aluminum and to use deodorants (which generally do not contain aluminum) rather than antiperspirants. Many over-the-counter medicines also contain aluminum. One antacid tablet can contain 50 milligrams of aluminum and a buffered aspirin tablet may contain about 10 to 20 milligrams of aluminum. In contrast, a person using uncoated aluminum pans for all cooking and food storage every day would take in an estimated 3.5 milligrams of aluminum daily. However, storing highly acidic or salty foods such as tomato sauce, rhubarb or sauerkraut in aluminum pots may cause more aluminum than usual to enter the food and is not recommended. (These foods will also cause pitting on the pots surface.)
Anodized Aluminum Cookware
The anodization process hardens the surface of aluminum cookware making it non-stick, scratch-resistant and easy to clean. Manufacturers claim that a final stage in the anodization process seals the aluminum, preventing any leaching into food. This cookware doesnt react to acidic foods, so these pots and pans are top choices for cooking rhubarb and sauces with tomato, wine and lemon juice.
Cast Iron Cookware
This all-time classic is strong, inexpensive, and an even conductor of heat for browning, frying and baking foods. Cooking with cast iron also provides a source of an important nutrient. Foods cooked in unglazed cast iron may contain twice the amount of iron they would otherwise. Cast-iron utensils should be handled differently from other utensils. To prevent rust damage, the inside of cast iron cookware should be coated frequently with unsalted cooking oil. It should not be washed with strong detergents or scoured and should be wiped dry

Question #1 What simple delivery in July of 1955 may have uncovered the evidence of the seamier side of life in Pittston?
Peeking into the past

With Judy Minsavage
1955 56 Years Ago James Reap of Dupont, a state forester at the Tark Hill fire tower, Suscon, reported the summer of 1955 the driest hed seen since 1931. Reap, an employee with the State Department of Forests and Water, said the region encountered only .90 inches of rain leaving the forests as dry as a tinderbox. Pennsylvania Governor Gifford Pinchot recognized the importance of the rich timber region of Pennsylvania by erecting fire towers throughout the state. According to firelookout.org, there were 449 towers in Pennsylvania, 64 of which are still standing. Tark Hill tower, erected in 1951, status is listed as Not Standing. The Department of Forests and Water was created in 1923. In a process known as flushing the C.A. Rock Firm of Scranton used well over 200,000 tons of silt to fill voids in empty mine workings of the Checker Vein of No 9 Colliery, below Carroll, Searle, Mill and Church Streets. The firm enlisted six trucks making continuous trips to and from silt banks at Number 9 workings in Hughestown. Each truckload amounted to about 14 tons of silt which was flushed underground to achieve surface strengthening in the area. 1965 46 Years Ago The Cash Store block building was set for demolition in 1965. A Pittston landmark, the store housed the F.W. Woolworth variety store, Sweetland Restaurant, Josie Tigues Ladies Shop, Western Union and DiLeos Newsstand. Veteran commercial photographer Stanley Rauduve occupied room 2 1/2 on the second floor of the building. He opened his business in 1914. His plan was to move his operation to his home after 52 years at the location. Mr. Rauduve covered various stories for regional newspapers and had approximately 80,000 negatives on file. A devastating fire ravaged the building in 1917. Firefighters from the Eagle and Niagara Hose Companies fought the blaze in 14 degree below zero temperatures. Some of the firefighters who answered the call were Ed Keating, Eugene McHugh, James Barrett, Marty Tracy, Joseph Kelly, Joseph Leonard,
Frank Castner, Bill Coplan, and police officer Anthony Reddington. Duryea native George Naylor was the oldest living charter member of the Excelsior Hose Company in 1965. Naylor was born in Yorkshire, England, in 1864. His parents Mr. and Mrs. William H. Naylor, were pioneer residents of Duryea. Young George worked in several odd jobs until he purchased a building from A.C. Watson in 1907 and started his wholesale candy business. Naylor and several other gentlemen formed the Excelsior Hose Company of Duryea in 1902. Manager of the Avoca A.C. team Anthony Daddy Gilrain was worried. His team had a 10-2 season in 1965 and with only 50 fans at the final game Gilrain wasnt confident about the future of the Suburban Baseball league. The Jolly Boys Club and West Side Social Club contributed monetarily, assisting in the clubs survival. Gilrain who worked out of town but returned to the area on weekends hoped the 66 season would be better as the starting lineup would be Duane Naugle, Tom Muldoon, Frank Conderfer, Vince OHop, Ed Romanko, Pat Clifford, Jack Garipy, Tony Kienoski, Pat Adonizio, Woody Wudarski, Tony Belanca, Mike Farrell, Ernest, Ray Cavaleri and Joe Murman. While delivering milk for the Woodlawn Dairy on James Street in Pittston, Steve Bilko showed youngsters on the block a thing or two about baseball. Bilko played eight seasons in the majors with teams such as St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago Cubs, Reds, Brooklyn and Los Angeles Dodgers. In 1961, he smacked 20 home runs for the L.A. Dodgers. Neighborhood boys Frank Burton, Bob Burton, Bob Zielinski, Ray Maria, Guy Lombardo and Francis Solano gathered to pay tribute to the local hero. Bilko connected for the last home run hit in Wrigley Field in 1961 and was inducted into the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame in 2003. 1975 36 Years Ago Paula Jean Cadden of Pittston joined her sister Mary who was touring Canada with John and Joseph Luke as the vocal group ARC. The band landed gigs
in Biggar, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. Plans for the seventh annual Wyoming Area Summer Recreation Golf Tournament were announced which offered any high school boy living in the Wyoming Area School District desiring to complete to sign up. Winner of the 74 junior division was Billy Musto with Lester Smulowitz winning the senior division. Joe Kojack Jumper shot a 66 - 4 under par and Rich Donlavage, Billy Briggs and Kevin Smith also had fine showings. Top ten songs of 1975: 1. Listen to What the Man Said, Paul McCartney and Wings. 2. The Hustle, Van McCoy. 3. Love Will Keep Us Together, Captain & Tennille. 4. Swearin To God, Frankie Valli. 5. Love Wont Let Me Wait, Major Harris. 6. Please Mr. Please, Olivia NewtonJohn. 7. One of These Nights, Eagles. 8. Im Not In Love, 10CC. 9. The Way We Were/Try to Remember, Gladys Knight. 10. Wildfire, Michael Murphy. 1985 26 Years Ago Jimmy Basara, Daniel Aruscavage, Mark Moses, David McHugh, Carmen Ambrosino, Lenny Basara, Joe Frushon, Brian Doran, Matthew Corridoni and Tony Grieco were members of the Cubs team that took the Hughestown Boys League championship in 1985. Major League baseball players were threatening to strike in 1985, so the Dispatch Inquiring Photographer asked local residents, What do you think about the possibility of a baseball strike in August? Joe Mazzarella of Exeter answered, I really dont care as long as the Dodgers are in first place. Brian Moran of Pittston Township added, With all the money they make, they shouldnt be allowed to strike. Larry Pellegrini said, I dont think the players will strike unlike 1981. Two strikes in the last five years may be too much for even the staunchest baseball fans to tolerate. Question #2 What did Edward Farrell of Avoca, Mary Ellen Opeka of Pittston, Christopher Grady of Duryea, Patti Soy of Avoca, Leo Malsky of Exeter, Carolyn Hannigan of Wyoming and Gerald Mondlak of Pittston have in common in
1985? 1995 16 Years ago A box called an inverse mux or multiplexer would enable eight school districts including Pittston Area and Wyoming Area to tap into the information highway. Through a grant obtained by The Luzerne Intermediate Unit, the districts as well as local libraries would receive internet access. The school districts were taking steps in order to insure students would be knowledgeable in the utilization of the internet and could compete in the world of information technology. Answer #1 Tom Trotter felt the dump truck he was driving tip dangerously to the left, spilling a large amount of the coal onto the roadway behind the American Theatre. Upon exiting the truck, he found the left rear wheel swallowed by a large hole in the roadway. The truck, owned by Louis Acernese, remained incapacitated until most of the contents were unloaded. Most attributed the holes appearance to the coal mines running underneath Pittston, but some blamed the mishap on tunnels that were built during prohibition to distribute alcohol citing there were no records that mining occurred in that area. According to history1900s.com the 18th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which prohibited the sale and manufacture of alcohol went into effect on January 16, 1920. On December 5, 1933, The 21st Amendment repealed the 18th Amendment, making alcohol once again legal. This was the first and only time in U.S. history an Amendment has been repealed. Answer #2 Edward Farrell of Seton Catholic, Mary Ellen Opeka of Pittston Area, Christopher Grady of Pittston Area, Patti Soy of Seton Catholic, Leo Malsky of Wyoming Area, Carolyn Hannigan of Wyoming Area and Gerald Mondlak of Pittston Area, were all recipients of the 1985 Sunday Dispatch Student-Athlete award. The award began in 1970 to honor students who made full use of opportunities in academic and extra curricular activities.

The New York State Court of Appeals has ruled that real estate agreements embodied in e-mails are legally binding. The decision applies to residential real estate deals as well as commercial ones. *** A new state law, the first of its kind in the U.S., requires Massachusetts restaurants to post notices on their menus, asking customers to tell their server if anyone in their party has a food allergy *** The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that inmates can sue under a federal civil rights law if they claim they were unconstitutionally denied DNA testing in state courts. *** A new California state law required junior high and high school students to be immunized against Pertussis before starting classes next fall. Better know as Whooping Cough, Pertussis reached epidemic proportions in California last year. *** The Georgia Supreme Court has reversed a lower court decision, finding that an 18year-olds participation in an on-line high school can satisfy the requirement that one must be attending school to continue to receive a parents child support.

Jack Smiles introduces new book on Bucky Harris

A diverse group of about 35 fans of baseball, Bucky Harris and Hughestown gathered at the Hughestown Hose Company on Wednesday evening for book release party/signing celebrating the release Jack Smiles biography of Bucky Harris, a Hughestown favorite son who rose from the coal breaker to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Former State Representative Tom Tigue introduced Smiles. In his introduction Tigue talked about baseball fans who used to come to his office on Center Street next to the hose company looking for Buckys gravesite. Tigue also mentioned the legacy of major league ballplayers who have come from the local area and complimented Smiles of the depth of his research. In his talk Smiles said the Hughestown Hose Company was chosen as a site for the event because much of Buckys younger life revolved around the Rock Street-Center Street area. The book, Bucky Harris, a biography of baseballs Boy Wonder is published by McFarland and is available through the publisher at mcfarlandpub.com, amazon.com and soon at the Barnes and Noble stores in Wilkes-Barre. Though not yet scheduled watch for future signings at the Pittston Library and the West Pittston Historical Society.

Marta Jones teaching at Y pre-school since 1989

Dispatch Correspondent
By Alexandria Antonacci
WHY THE Y?
Marta Jones has been teaching at the YMCAs pre-school since 89, but she has been a member of the Y long before that. I grew up in the Y. I was probably 6 the first time I came here. I went to the camp then joined swim team and later became a camp counselor. I wasnt here for high school but after I started teaching swim lessons, said Jones. It was those swim lessons that jolted her career as a pre-school teacher, a position she has occupied for 22 years. Although no day teaching youngsters is quite normal, a schedule is in place to keep the kids constantly entertained. Well we start with circle in the morning; we have all the kids sit on the ABC rug when they come in, said Jones. Now that particular ABC rug is quite special. It has provided a place of comfort for the children of the Y to learn for years. On that slightly faded learning environment the kids learn their letters, numbers, colors, shapes, days, months, weather and holidays. And thats just the beginning, once we are finished there we take them in the gym if its cool

enough. Here the kids have access to bicycles, scooters, hula hoops and balls just to get their energy out, Jones added. She also notes that the older kids in the group have the opportunity to swim once a week. Then we come back in and pre-k works on crafts and sometimes we go for walks around the community, she said. Just within a close proximity they have the chance to take the kids out to visit the downtown city area which includes riverfront access, a fire station, post office and farmers market for starters. Were really into taking the kids out to experience nature, sometimes we even go down to the river and catch bugs, said Jones. Although they have a great area for the kids, they also take them out on field trips to experience even more things visiting the pumpkin patch every fall and the circus every spring. But why does she think that parents should choose to send their kids to the Y? Because its a family environment; the big plus is the gym and the pool, cause nobody else has those, said Jones. The best part is that she practiced what she preached and even sent her kids to the Y preschool years ago. She treats her students as in they were her own children with love and care. The best memory is when the kids hug you and say I love you thats the best, cause they dont do that unless they really like you, joked Jones. On a more serious side she expressed the importance of her job. We really like to get them out, we really believe that even though its important to make sure that they get the curriculum, the most important thing with our school is that they learn how to sit still, follow directions and share with others. She also expressed that she most definitely couldnt pick favorite students because there were too many. I remember most of them too and I know that its nerdy but I do, said Jones. The coolest thing for her to see is when those kids who went through the program in turn bring their own children back. At the end she had one last plead to

Copper Cookware
Copper is an excellent conductor of heat, especially good for top-of-range cooking. Cooks often prefer copper cookware for delicate sauces and foods that must be cooked at precisely controlled temperatures. Copper cookware is usually lined with tin or stainless steel. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cautions against using unlined copper for general cooking because the metal is relatively easily dissolved by some foods with which it comes in contact, and in sufficient quantities can cause nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Nonstick Coatings
As stainless steel does not conduct heat evenly, most stainless steel cookware is made with copper or aluminum bottoms. Manufacturers caution against allowing acidic or salty foods to remain in stainless steel for long periods. Although there are no known health hazards from leaching of the metal, undissolved salt will pit steel surfaces. After taking a second look at your cookware, put it to use by cooking up some delicious summer recipes using fresh and local produce. Fresh green or red apples may be used for the following SNAP-Ed recipe. Apple season is right around the corner! This recipe also increases the amount of fruit while decreasing the amount of starch!
Apple Slice Pancakes
Although nonstick pans will wear away with hard use and particles may chip off, the Food and Drug Administration has stated that these particles would pass unchanged through your body and pose no health hazard. A coated pan heated for long periods at high temperatures will give off fumes, but these are less toxic than fumes given off by ordinary cooking oils.
Stainless Steel Cookware
Stainless steel cookware is durable, will not permanently corrode or tarnish and its hard, nonporous surface is resistant to wear. Stainless steel is a combination of iron and other metals. It contains chromium, and may contain nickel, molybdenum or titanium, which contribute special hardness, resistance to damage from high temperatures, scratching and corrosion.

Its all good at All Good
or four days, more than 25,000 people camped, grilled, and danced in the scenic hills of Marvins Mountaintop just outside of Masontown, West Virginia, during the 15th edition of the All Good Music Festival and Campout. Beginning on Thursday, July 14, those campers who purchased early arrival tickets, were able to come early, get prime camping spots and enjoy some early-bird jams with the likes of the John Butler Trio and STS9 (Sound Tribe Sector 9), with the latter setting the pace for the heavy mix of electronic music throughout the weekend. Like most years, the first night was filled with energetic music lovers who were there to relax, make new friends, and last but not least, dance. If the tempo of STS9s set was any indication, the band utilized the crowds energy to help make its set one of the highlights of the weekend. Being the official first day of the festival, Friday featured 18 hours of non stop music starting just before noon. It might sound like a complicated task, but the organizers of All Good have always strived to have the music never stop, by having a main concert bowl with two stages to ensure no overlapping sets. As an added treat, a third stage, the Grassroots Stage, was set up in the camping area and featured some early morning acts like The Recipe and Lubriphonic. The focus, however, was on the main concert bowl and the forty plus bands who took over both stages. On Friday, acts like the Infamous Stringdusters and Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad started the day of perfectly on the main stage before turning attention to the side stage for a performance from one of the most creative artists at the festival: That 1 Guy. While most artists stuck with either a standard rock setup or a do setup, That 1 Guy used a pipe. A steel pipe reinforced with strings and electronics which emit different sounds when struck with a hand or bow. It sounds awkward, but when you see it live its an incredible experience. Later in the evening on Friday,
the Everyone Orchestra brought its free-form jamming to the stage for one of the most fanbased sets of the day. Leader Matt Butler, equipped with his trusty erasable sign, guided the musicians and the crowd through a 30 minute set which abruptly changed directions and songs without much notice, but still kept the crowd moving. The main stage hosted the one-manjam band Keller Williams who put in a tight but funky set for the overly-hot people dancing in the concert bowl. As a bit of a nice transition, the Warren Haynes Band put in a bluesy 75 minute set which featured both Haynes original material and some spot-on covers. After Haynes finished, popular funk outfit Toubab Krewe took to the side stage to allow the main stage to be changed over for Fridays headliner, Furthur. Toubab Krewe were only scheduled for 45-minute show, but wound up playing for more than double that as Furthur bassist Phil Lesh was late getting into the farm due to heavy traffic. Certainly a testimony to Toubab Krewes ability to improv and fill in when necessary. Going on an hour late, Furthur kicked off its Summer Tour in style with crisp takes on songs like Jack Straw, Bertha, Ramble on Rose, and Turn on Your Lovelight which featured Haynes as a special guest. During an extended second set, the band ripped through classics like Truckin, China Cat Sunflower>I Know You Rider, and Terrapin, before ending with a touching And We Bid You Goodnight. Following a lavish fireworks display, most people realized Furthur put in the longest set of the weekend, clocking in at just over three hours. Saturday featured one of the best flowing lineups beginning with Yonder Mountain String Band who brought the new grass to the stage around 7 p.m. Following Yonder on the main stage were veteran jam band favorites moe. who put in a solid, fanfriendly set and one of the best light shows of the weekend. After a brief transition from
the side stage, 90s funk/metal masters Primus headlined Saturdays bill with a thumping twohour set including favorites like Jillys on Smack, and Jerry Was a Race Car Driver. There was none of the bands hits like Winonas Big Brown Beaver, or My Name is Mud, mostly because the current incarnation of Primus - singer/bassist Les Claypool, guitarist Larry LaLonde and drummer Jay Lane reflects one of the earliest lineups before the band garnered national attention. Following Primus blistering set, Karl Densons Tiny Universe treated the crowd to some trippy acid-jazz on the side stage before turning to the main stage for the energetic djing skills of Pretty Lights, who managed to do the impossible: take a crowd who just witnessed pounding funk metal and acid jazz and turn the party into a rave. Over the past year, Pretty Lights has been getting a huge push of momentum in the do scene, and judging from the reaction to his live show, hell definitely be a name youll be hearing more of very soon. After unwinding on Sunday with the help of Greensky Bluegrass, Toots and the Maytals, and The Bridge, All Good wrapped up with a fiery set from popular Grateful Dead tribute act Dark Star Orchestra, who for the second time in three years, was
picked as the very last band to play the festival. Going on its fifteenth year, the All Good Music Festival has become a haven for jam band lovers, and with the current trend of many festivals leaning towards mainstream acts, All Good seems to be one of only a few sticking to its roots. So if seeing over 40 nationally-known acts on two stages over four days, with everything from grilling and chilling to making new
friends on the rolling hills of a private farm sounds like your idea of a good vacation, take some time and make it an All Good summer.

Brennan

far from the ice cream parlor when she heard the two shots which killed Daley. Within a seven or eight minutes, she said, Rizzo came to the house and called to her husband, who had arrived a few minutes earlier, to leave with him. Pointing to Rizzo she said he was in a great hurry and her husband left with him and her husbands father, Salvatore Mancino, 50, went after them. Her brother-in-law James Mancino, 14, backed her testimony. When asked to point out the man who had come to the house he walked over to Rizzo and touched him on the knee. The next day, July 30, working on the theory that Mancino was hiding in Pittston, 10 state constables and the Pittston city police under Chief Newcomb conducted a wholesale raid of the Italian quarter of Pittston. The police raided 100 homes on Tompkins, Johnson and Jenkins streets. They found seven shot guns, 27 revolvers and two rifles, and 47 stilettos, but no Louis Mancino. Back on the West Side the state police told the newspapers they expected to arrest Mancino and charge him with killing Brennan within 24 hours. They were wrong, though they did find Mancinos father two days later hiding in a stable in Exeter. Police took him into custody, but quickly cleared him of involvement in the murders and released him. He never explained why he was hiding Ten days later Louis Mancino emerged from the woods near Mt. Lookout in the mountains behind West Wyoming where he had been living in a cave on bread and baloney provided by some young boys. He walked to his fathers house in West Wyoming. The next morning he and his father took the trolley to Pittston to the office of Atty. W. H. Gillespie at 127 William Street. In turn they went to Wilkes-Barre where Mancino turned himself into the district attorney. He was held without bail as a material witness. With Mancinos arrest three men were in custody in connection with the murders, Rizzo, Mancino and a Steve Martini, who had been standing next to Rizzo when the shots were fired.
Mancino told a story which jived with his wifes story. Mancino said when Daley hit him with his night stick he fell and was on the ground when he heard the two shots come from where Rizzo and Martini were standing. Mancino got up and ran home. A few minutes later Rizzo arrived and convinced him to leave with him. Mancino said once they got out of earshot of Mancinos wife and father, Rizzo confessed he had shot Daley. Apparently, the police and DA believed the Mancino version. They declined to charge him with murder and charged Rizzo with both murders and Martini as a conspirator in the Brennan murder.
On February 17, 1919, Rizzo went to trial for the murder of Daley. The DA had hoped to present evidence showing the same gun was used to kill Daley and Brennan, but the best they could do was describe the wounds to both Daley and Brennan and suggest they came from steeltipped bullets and that the rapid sequence of the shots in both shootings could only have come from an automatic revolver. A .32 caliber shell casing was found at the Daley scene, but the murder weapon was not found. The DAs best evidence was the testimony of Mancino and several other men who were at the scene of the Daley murder. While they all testified the shots
came from where Rizzo and Martini were standing, they did not see a gun. Rizzo testified for himself and turned Mancinos story 180 degrees. He swore he did not kill Dailey. He said he ran because everybody else did. He said when he got to the Mancino house Mancinos father said, the chief is dead and we are ruined. Rizzo further said the younger Mancino confessed to him that he killed Daley and convinced Rizzo to leave with him. Rizzo said Mancinos father caught up with them by Sixth Street by a pond along the railroad tracks and said they had to talk. From Rizzos testimony:
Louies father said what are you going to say in case you are arrested and they kick you and make you tell what you saw. I said, I will tell the truth. Louies father started to hit me and I ran and he said stop or I will shoot you. I came back to the tracks and he said to his son we better kill him and throw him in the water. I started to cry, knelt at his feet and begged his pardon and told him if my life was spared I would say nothing. Louis then told his father that if I wouldnt tell he shouldnt kill me. Then Louies father said will you swear you wont tell and I said I would. Then Louies father said,

GWA wins state crown

Local 9-10 girls were told they had been eliminated
By Rick Notari
Sports
Dispatch Staff
They were on the outside looking in. At least thats what they were told. But after a call to Little League Eastern Regional Headquarters in Bristol, CT, the Greater Wyoming Area 9-10 year old softball all-star team half of them already on their way home from Hellertown to Northeastern Pennsylvania were told they had indeed qualified for the Pennsylvania State Championship semifinals. Two games later, GWA had won the state title they almost didnt a chance to play for. The site administrator told us we were the team on the outside looking in and were eliminated from the tournament based on run differential, said Coach Paul Orzel in an email to The Sunday Dispatch. The girls were in tears when we broke the news to them. The original ruling came because of the three-way tie in the East Pool between GWA (2-1), Exton (2-1) and Avon Grove (2-1) a team Greater Wyoming Area had beaten during pool play. But when state officials called the Bristol office, it was determined that the head-to-head result should have be used as a tie-breaker before run differential. Most of the families had packed up their gear and were headed up the turnpike, said Orzel. Only a few of the families were staying the extra night. And at about 6:30 p.m., (Manager) Steve (Mytych) called to tell us we had been awarded the second-seed from the East Pool and would play in Saturdays semi against the top-seed from the West, Warren Little League. With a second life, Greater Wyoming Area took full advantage of its situation.

Wyoming Area pushed ahead, 5-3, headed into the fifth inning. Warren added a run in the fifth to get within, 5-4, but GWA answered with a run in each of its last two at-bats to come away with the win.

ning before scoring two runs in the bottom of the first to take a lead it would not relinquish. The lead moved to 5-0 after three innings as Glatz and Aubrey Mytych stroked RBI singles, and Cassidy Graham drove in a run with a double.

LITTLE LEAGUE SOFTBALL
The Greater Wyoming Area girls junior softball all-star team was in a position they had not been in during the Section 5 Little League Junior Softball Tournament. They were behind. Having dominated the first three games in the tourney, GWA trailed 5-4 entering the top of the seventh in its title game against Carbino Club. But there was no quit in the District 31 champions, and Greater Wyoming Area scored six runs in their final at bat to enable a 10-7 win and the Section 5 Championship at the Plains Little League last Saturday night. The victory put GWA into this past weeks Pennsylvania State Championship at the Indiana Little League in Indiana, PA. The one thing about these girls is they never quit. Never, not once, said GWA manager Rob Bresnahan. We were trailing going into the last inning and

we had a huge rally and got the win. The GWA offense did as they have done so many times before when they took an early lead. Lindsay Carey led off the inning with a sharp single to left field. She then stole second base and scored on RBI double off the bat of Bree Bednarski. Nicole Turner then singled and stole second base giving GWA runners on second and third with two outs and Adrienne Przybyla at the plate. Przybyla then cashed in both Bednarski and Turner with an RBI double off the centerfield fence. GWA held a 3-0 lead after three innings of play. Carbino Club came roaring back in the fifth. With the bases loaded and nobody out in the inning, Carbino Club leadoff hitter Kelly Mecca roped a two-RBI single. Mecca scored later in the inning on a two-RBI double off the bat of

Souryavong leads County defense

Old Forge linebacker records game-high nine tackles

He spent the better parts of three quarters chasing down City quarterback Tyler Hughes of West Scranton. And while Hughes got the better of the County defense in the Citys 19-7 win in the 77th Annual Scranton Lions Club Dream Game on Wednesday night at Scranton Memorial Stadium, Old Forges Brandon Souryavong made sure the outcome remained within striking distance for the County offense. Souryavong recorded nine tackles, four assists, a tackle for a loss, and forced a fumble for the County to lead his teams defense from the inside linebacker position of the 4-3 setup. Old Forges Mike Tagliaferri also played well defensively for the County, recording three stops, and fellow Blue Devil Mike Matisko got dirty in the trenches playing defensive tackle. But Matiskos value came on offense where he lined up at tight end and helped the County outrush the City, 176-141. Old Forge wideout Connor Fultz also aided the County offense with two catches for 27 yards. But in the end, Hughes was just too much for the County to overcome. Hughes threw for two touchdowns, ran for another and generally dominated the spotlight the second longest running high school football all-star game in the country.. Hughes hit nine of 13 passes for 118 yards and led all rushers with 67 more on 10 carries He showed what was ahead on the Citys first offensive possession when he hit all five of his passes, including an 8-yard touchdown to high school teammate Ray Dominguez for a 7-0 lead after one quarter. The County answered with a 1-yard touchdown run by James Fruehan of Abington Heights to force a 7-7 tie with 10:24 left before halftime. Hughes scored on a 1-yard run with 4:42 left in the half and hit North Poconos Greg Sporko with a 15-yard touchdown pass with 7:57 left in the third quarter to finish the scoring. The County never threatened after scoring its lone touchdown. GO Lackawanna Sports Writer Tom Robinson contributed to this report.

Claire Sebastianelli. Morgan Caselli capped the five-run fifth with an RBI single to left field. Carbino Club held a 5-3 lead after five. GWA cut the Carbino lead to just one run in the top of the sixth. Nicole Turner led off the inning with a double to left-centerfield. She then advanced to third on a groundout by Przybyla. Then with one out in the inning, Emily Wolfgang brought home Turner on a beautiful squeeze-play bunt down the first base line, and Greater Wyoming Area tailed just 5-4. The seventh inning proved to be the turning point in the game. Megan Bresnahan started the one-out rally with a line drive single to right field. Nicole Cumbo and Bree Bednarski then drew back-to-back walks loading the bases for GWA with Turner at the plate. Turner then struck out, but GWA wasnt about to roll over and quit. With the bases loaded and two outs, Przybyla laced a bases clearing double to give GWA a 7-5 lead after being just one out away from being forced to play another game as the winners bracket champ in the title series. Wolfgang then cashed in Przybyla with an RBI single to left field. Sara Coollbaugh then contributed to the two-out parade with an RBI single to left centerfield. Jules Scappaticci capped the seventh inning offensive explosion with an RBI-single to centerfield. Carbino Club gave GWA a scare and rallied for two runs in the bottom of the seventh. However, 10-7 was as close as Carbino came in the game. Przybyla led the GWA offense with two hits and four RBI. Carey, Coolbaugh and Turner all had two hits for GWA. I tell them all the time to be patient at the plate and today they were patient and we came through, Bresnahan said. Nicole Cumbo also battled throughout the whole game and pitched great.

Megan Bresnahan also added two hits, and Julianna Scappaticci chipped in with an RBI-single. While the offense paced GWA in its first game, assistant coach Tracy Carey indicated the teams defense has been outstanding. The biggest story has been our defense, said Carey in an email. Our pitching has been solid and is not walking a lot of batters. They are forcing ground balls and timely pop outs, and we have no errors so far. The state championship tournament was rained out on Thursday, with Greater Wyoming Areas game with Marion Center moved to Friday night. GWA then had Saturday off and would play in Sundays semifinal if they qualified. The title game is slotted for Monday. Dispatch Staff Writer Rick Notari contributed to this report.

State champs playing at Christy Mathewson this week

West Point got on the board with a run in the fourth, but GWA got two more in its half of the inning to take a 7-1 lead. Greater Wyoming Area went ahead 8-1 in the fifth, and West Point scored two in the sixth to get within 8-3. But GWA shut down WP to earn the win. Glatz struck out nine to earn the victory, and scored three runs for GWA. The girls did whatever the coaches asked, said Orzel. Bunt, take a pitch, steal. No matter what we asked, they did all for the benefit of the team. After taking a victory lap after receiving its championship banner and medals, the Greater Wyoming Area team headed home where they were greeted by fans, fire trucks, ambulances and police cars from the three communities represented by the championship team Exeter, West Wyoming and Wyoming for a parade they took them down Wyoming Avenue to St. Barbaras Parish Picnic where they were recognized by local singer Jeanne Zano who introduced the state champs on stage to the crowd. The first question I was asked as the girls ran off the field after winning the state title was, Do we get to rid on the fire trucks? said Orzel. They have been practicing almost everyday since June 15, hitting before each game. They have worked hard. There are 11 girls from six different GWA League teams on this team from Exeter, Wyoming and West Wyoming. The girls along with the parents have developed some nice friendships during the last six weeks. Once the kids hit sixth grade they will all be attending the same school. They are going to be able to build on this experience in the future.

EZ Mart moves into second

Atlas Realty won both matches this week and remain in first place. For a team that qualified for the last playoff spot in the first half they are certainly making the most of the second half of play. The Realtors are Tony Reino, Al DeAngelis, Hank Rodegherio and Dr. Steve Mariani. Dr. Steve is in line for the most improved player of the year award. The turnaround in his play is remarkable. Bassler Equipment finally stopped their give away program and also won both matches this week. The Bassler boys are Joe Zambetti Sr., Harold Kiesinger, Haenry Korpusik and Phil Bosha. Maybe they have realized that charity begins at home. Upcoming dates of importance: 1) August 28 is the Luzerne county UNICO bocce tournament to be held at the Yatesville courts and 2) the annual Yatesville Bocce League clambake and bocce tournament on September11. Tune in next week for further details on both events.

hat comes to mind when you think about a teams minor league system? The future. Especially as Yankee fans, you need to know who is going to uphold their tradition of excellence once the guys like Jeter and A-Rod are gone. Of course, the Yankees are well prepared with their stacked farm system but why wait a few years from now to see the future stars when you can do it now? There are two players on the Scranton Wilkes-Barre roster that the Yankees are very high on. And they should be. One of them is their starting third baseman Brandon Laird. There arent many people who know Lairds name. Hes not one of the players that gets all the hype in the system. He really should though. Laird so far only has 10 home runs but I can tell you his power is developing. Ive seen Laird hit some moonshots. Just last year actually he hit 25 homeruns in the minors. Once Laird develops I think that he will definitely be a 30-plus home run guy. Its not only the power that is so attractive about Laird though. He can hit for average too. In addition to those 25 bombs, he had a .291 batting average in 2010. I actually think Laird has the ability to hit over .300 but he needs to f ix one thing. Laird has what I like to call Mark Teixeira-itis. Laird is a great hitter, but in the months of April and May he looks pitiful. It happens every season. Laird looks no better than Cody Ransom did when he f illed in for A-Rod in 2009. But like Teixeira, Laird always f igures it out and f inishes strong. He just needs to f ind a way to get over that early season hump and hell be spectacular. The next gem in the system I dont have to preach too much about. The SWB catcher, Jesus Montero, has his name all over the place. Hes one of the top prospects in all of baseball. The hype on him isnt just hype though. Montero can really smoke the ball and he is going to be a tremendous offensive player in the MLB. The real question is going to be his defense. He really isnt that pretty on the other side of the ball but the one thing I cannot take away from Montero is that he is constantly working hard to improve. Montero wants to be a catcher and nothing else. He knows he needs to work a lot there but I think hes up to the challenge. Many people have said that his size will keep him from behind the plate but I have two words for those critics: Joe Mauer. As long as Laird and Montero make it through the trade deadline and the offseason still wearing pinstripes, youll start seeing them in New York. Montero might even be the starter next year for the big club. Heres a side note: over the next few weeks keep an eye out for Alex Rodriguez making a rehab assignment in Scranton. If theyre home, it just might happen.

FOLLOWING THE FORGE
Seven sent
Last year, Old Forge graduate Mike Avvisato became the most decorated athlete in school history when the baseball team won its fourth straight District 2 title. It was Avvisatos seventh gold medal of his scholastic athletic career. He also won three basketball gold medals One year later, five female athletes have joined Avvisato. Andi Alsalahat, Nicole Marianelli, Lindsay Regan, Dana Bilski and Sarah Fish earned their seventh District 2 gold medal when the Old Forge softball team won its fourth straight D2 crown. The quintet also was part of a three-year run where the girls basketball team struck gold. That run unfortunately ended this season or this group of girls would have had eight gold medals. Alsalahat emerged on the scene as a freshman and sophomore in both sports, and fought off injuries her final two seasons to earn her seven medals. In softball she began her career as an all-star third baseman, moved behind the plate to earn all-star status as a catcher during her sophomore year, played in right field the second half of her junior year after returning from a knee injury, and returned to third base this year before finishing the season at shortstop. Throughout her time on the diamond she was one of the most feared hitters in all of District 2. On the court, Alsalahat played inside as a freshman and sophomore, missed her junior year due to the injury suffered playing soccer, and ran the point as a senior. Marianelli started on the diamond since her sophomore season, playing left field during the Blue Devils run to the PIAA title game. She then took over in centerfield as a junior and started her senior season in the middle of the outfield before spurring Old Forges unexpected run through the district playoffs and into the PIAA quarterfinals from inside the circle.

nior football with Hynoski. Thats not Hynoskis only tie to Old Forge though. Who could forget the infamous Henry Who? banner posted by OFHS students at the Blue Devils PIAA playoff game against Southern at Dunmore High School in 2006 Hynoski took the banner as an insult and rushed for 214 yards and three touchdowns on just nine carries during his teams 48-0 victory. The win led to Southerns fourth consecutive PIAA Class 1A state title. Bressi isnt the only one excited about Hynoskis signing, diehard Giants fans Bobby Fico Semenza, his son Bobby, Carl Baker Agostini, Larry and Dustin Ferrett, and the entire Alexander gang hope Henry Who helps the G-Men get back to the Super Bowl.

developed into one of the better hitters in the Lackawanna League late into her junior season, and throughout her senior year. On the hardwoods, Marianelli came off the bench during her sophomore season as an outside threat, and started during her junior and senior seasons. As a senior, Marianelli was one of the top three-point shooters in the Lackawanna League and was the Blue Devils leading scorer. Regan was a steady presence in both the softball and basketball lineups for the Blue Devils. She started as a freshman in left field before moving to third base for her sophomore and junior seasons. She started her senior season at shortstop but moved to third base late in the year as part of a major shakeup that proved dividends during Old Forges post-season run. She played her entire junior season with an injured shoulder that required surgery the proceeding summer, playing al-
most flawlessly at third base while committing just two errors during the Blue Devils 25 games. On the basketball court, Regan was a versatile player. She played inside and could rebound, and stepped outside during her senior season to finish second on the team in scoring and three-pointers. Bilski excelled on the diamond where she started for three seasons at first base after serving as the teams top pinchhitter as a freshman. She was a steady influence on the softball field, making many tough plays at first base look easy while turning errant throws into unexpected outs. He bat was just as productive during her sophomore and junior seasons, and after a slow start to her senior season, she finished strong for the Blue Devils in the post-season. On the basketball court, Bilski was a role player during her junior season, and started every game as a senior, playing in the post for Old Forge.
Fish was the consummate teammate. No more than a role player before her senior season, the Blue Devils designated player emerged as a senior especially during the post-season coming up with more than one big hit for Old Forge. She served as a relief pitcher during her sophomore season and the Blue Devils top pinch-hitter as a junior. Fishs role on the basketball court was as a reserve, but still was a vital member of three district title teams.
Bressi knows Henry Who?
Three former members of the Old Forge football team made an interesting statement with their choice of hairdos for the 77th annual Dream Game. Connor Fultz, Mike Tagliaferri and Brandon Souryavong sported Devilhawks their version of the Mohawk style haircut made popular by Mr. T in the 80s. Teammates Mike Matisko and Kiel Eigen thought better and kept their hair at its normal length and style.
Guinness is good
Former Old Forge football standout John Bressi had an extra reason to be happy the NFL Lockout ended childhood friend and University of Pittsburgh fullback Henry Hynoski signed as an undrafted free agent with the New York Giants. Bressi, who grew up in the Southern Columbia School District before coming to Old Forge as a seventh grader, played ju-
No. Not that Guinness. The Guinness Book of World Records may have an Old Forge entry in it soon. Former Blue Devil threesport athlete Brandon Gatto will try and set the record for the most jumping jacks in a minute, tomorrow at 7 p.m. at Old Forge Veterans Memorial Stadium. Gatto has contacted Guinness and has been informed no such record exists. So the former Old Forge tailback will go through the process of being the first to set the record.

Four members of the Old Forge High School Varsity Soccer team played in the UNICO Scranton Soccer Cup All-Star game held July 22 at the University of Scrantons Fitzpatrick Field. Matt Colianni, Mike Polasky and Jason Sniegowski played in the boys game, while Jess Casey became the first member of the Blue Devils to play in the girls contest. All four players suited up for the North squads. Old Forge Head Coach John Argonish also served as an assistant for the North boys. Casey played well defensively for the North during its 4-2 win over the South in the ninth annual game. In the boys game, Sniegowski made one save while shutting out the South in the first half of play, spurring the North to a 3-1 win. Polasky and Colianni also played well defensively as the North held the South without a goal for much of the match. GO Lackawanna Sport Writer Tom Robinson contributed to this report.

Dorothy Scamacca
July 24, 2011 Dorothy Scamacca, 76, of Duryea,diedJuly24,2011attheGeisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center following a brief illness. BornJuly3,1935inPittston,she was a daughter of the late Eleanor and Frank Viscavage. She was a graduate of Pittston High School. She was also preceded in death by her brother, Joseph. Surviving are her husband, Sam; sons, Sam Jr. and his wife, guilty. Salsburg was congratulated by many friends including several lawyers who had heard his closing arguments. Rizzo stayed in custody as he was still being held for the murder of Brennan. Juror George Helfrick, a machinist from Wilkes-Barre, ran from the courtroom to a taxi waiting to take him home to see his son who had been born while Helfrick was sequestered. In March, District Attorney Slattery admitted the state could not prove its case against Mancino and Martini in the Brennan murder and asked the judge to drop the charges. Mancino and Martini went free. The states cases were fraught with problems. No shell casings were found at the Brennan scene and the weapon was never found. Many of the witnesses did not speak English, requiring an interpreter. Mary Cadora, a 14year-old neighbor of the Mancino family, testified the Mancino family asked her to give false damaging testimony against Rizzo. The state couldnt even decide what the defendants names Camille, Albrightsville; Randy and his wife, Jodi, Seymour, Ind.; grandchildren, Sammi Jo and Cody; daughter, Maria Braun, and her husband, Werner, Efland, NC; and sister, Gloria Kuna. were. Mancino was also spelled Manchino and the codefendant was both Steve Martini and Stefano Matine. The testimony was all over the place. It was said that Mancinos father was with him on the sidewalk when Daley struck the son with his nightstick and it was said that the father was at home. Mancino was hit in the head and fell, or the hand and did not fall. The central problem was Mancino and Rizzo pointing the finger at each other. Apparently the jury found Rizzos story about the oath and being kissed three times by Mancino more believable than Mancinos story that Rizzo had been the killer. Perhaps the DA chose to try the wrong man. Whatever happened that night 93 years ago when two small borough police chiefs were murdered will never be known. Ed note: This story was complied from archived newspaper stories from 1918 and 1919 found in the Wilkes-Barre Times, Wilkes-Barre Record and Sunday Independent

you must give my son the Hand of St. John and you must kiss him three times as you would your brother. Rizzo said under orders from the elder Mancino he borrowed $40 from a women friend and agreed to meet the father and son in a field along the river. They never showed up, but the police did and he was arrested. Rizzo testified he confessed after a grilling because of the oath he took not to tell the truth and because he feared Mancino would kill him, too. He said he never owned or fired a revolver. Rizzos trial lawyer Abram Salsburg took more than an hour for his closing statements, during which he emphasized the contradictions in the states witnesses testimony. The jury, which was sequestered for the week-long trial, got the case at 6:30 on the evening of February 25. They deliberated for one hour before finding Rizzo not
