“Anybody need the bucket?” RuthieSkammer asked cheerfully as shewalked into her wellness class at Dal-las High School on April 17.The students were just beginning to

dissect cow eyes as part of a visitingpresentation by the Da Vinci ScienceCenter in Allentown.But the bucket went unused. Some

students looked a bit squeamish but allwere attentive as their classmates cutinto the eyes and placed the differentparts in a tray provided for them.Skammer teacheswellness and is the

wellness chair for Dallas High School.For those who have been out of high

school for a while, wellness classes

combine traditional physical educationclasses and health classes.Skammer brims with enthusiasm

when discussing her chosen field.She said the Da Vinci presentations

were made possible by a grant she ap-plied for after attending a presentationon organ and tissue donation aware-ness. She received $3,927 to enrich theclassroom experience.Skammer explained that one of Da

Vinci’s presentations involved dissec-tion and that the other used brain sen-sory activities to teach students howtheir brains work.

bridge’s opening. “It’s beautiful. Theydid a fantastic job and everybody isthrilled.”Sebastian explained that plans to

renovate the bridge started in 2000 andincluded removing the old bridge, wid-ening the area, building a new bridgeand new roads.Kingston Township budgeted

$220,000, or 20 percent of the overallcost, while the remaining 80 percentof the project’s cost was paid for by thePennsylvania Department of Transpor-tation.“Everything went smoothly,” Sebas-

tian said, although crews did run into

soil erosion problems when digging intothe creek bed, making redesigns neces-sary. “Everybody cooperated. Once itstarted, it was smooth sailing.”Bob Nause, proprietor of Top Value

Legos on display at librarySeven-year-old Bryce Phillips, a first-grade student at Wycallis

Elementary School, will display his Lego collection at the BackMountain Memorial Library during the month of May.Bryce has been building and collecting Legos for one and a half

years. He began when he started watching a TV series called Nin-jago. His collection includes Ninjago sets and alsoMonster FighterLego sets. Bryce received most of these Legos as gifts for holidaysand his birthday.At first, Bryce had help from his parents building the sets but

now he builds them by himself. Bryce states that, “The sets cantake a long time to make.” The castle took the longest and is hisfavorite piece. “It’s the most awesomest,” he said. Bryce also en-joys going on the Internet to watch videos on Lego sets being built.Bryce lives in Dallas with his parents, Roy and Tricia Phillips,

and his sister, Julia.

S Truman is born in Lamar,Mo. Upon President FranklinRoosevelt’s death in 1945, Tru-man became the 33rd presidentof the United States. Afterfour months in office, Trumanauthorized the dropping oftwo atomic bombs on Japan,believing it ultimately savedAmerican and Japanese lives byforcing Japan to surrender.* On May 12, 1932, the

body of aviation hero CharlesLindbergh’s baby is found morethan two months after he waskidnapped from his family’sNew Jersey mansion. After nu-merous ransom notes, the babywas found less than a mile fromthe home. He had been killed

the night of the kidnapping.* On May 11, 1947, the B.F.

Goodrich Company of Akron,Ohio, announces it has devel-oped a tubeless tire. The disad-vantage of the old inner tubedesign was that if the inner tubefailed, the tire would blow outimmediately, causing the driverto lose control of the vehicle.* On May 6, 1954, in Oxford,

England, 25-year-old medicalstudent Roger Bannister cracksthe four-minute mile. Bannisterwon the mile race with a time of3 minutes and 59.4 seconds.* On May 9, 1971, the last

New patio furniturehas been ordered and a spacenear the patio has been clearedfor games like croquet and bad-minton.Crediting the Harkins family

for the reputation enjoyed by theBeaumont Inn, Friedman said,“Beth ran it and it had an excel-lent reputation. I hope to con-tinue the tradition they startedbut take it a notch farther.”He added that Sunday

brunch, which was a tradition atthe Beaumont Inn for years, willcontinue.Friedman’s incentive to re-open

the Beaumont Inn came fromguests attending weddings atFriedman Farms which, he said,is nine minutes from the inn.“Wedding guests are always

asking me where they can stayin the Back Mountain whenthey attend a wedding at thefarm,” he said. “As you know,there are no hotels in the BackMountain. Now, they will havesomewhere to stay.”

Students in grades 10, 11 and 12 rotatedthrough two presentations throughout theday.Presenter Steve McGorry, who has

worked at the Da Vinci center for two yearsas outreach coordinator, taught the dissec-tion class. “We do school workshops in thecenter but we also go on the road,” he saidHe discussed the anatomy and functions

of eye parts as the students followed hisinstructions. He asked questions to involvethe students in their learning.Dante DeAngelo, 18, of Dallas, held the

scalpel in his group. He plans to becomea surgical tech. “I’m an outdoorsman,” hesaid. “This stuff interests me.”At an all-girl table, Christy Conway, 17,

of Shavertown, had no problem doing thedissecting. “I like taking things apart. Itwas the same in biology class.”The group dissecting eyeballs was also

able to look at a set of healthy lungs andcompare it to a set of diseased smokerlungs.In a classroom next door, Max Needle,

who joined the Da Vinci Center in Febru-ary, demonstrated brain sensory activities.Needle’s humorous approach helped him

establish a rapport with the students as heconducted activities focused on vision andreflexes. He used several students to dem-onstrate a few experiments before lettingthem loose to explore the room’s activities.Students wore special glasses which

mimicked eye conditions such as glaucomaand macular degeneration. They also test-ed their reflexes in a variety of ways.Nell Adams, 17, of Dallas, liked an activ-

ity in which she had to negotiate a mazewith her eyes closed. She said, “It was hardand challenging.”

Classmate Liz Dillon, 17, of Dallas, wassurprised by a reflex activity that involvedcatching a tennis ball. “It was harder thanit looked.”Skammer has already purchased human

models with removable anatomical partswith grant money and more activities areplanned. She’s going to take the AP biologystudents on a field trip to the Musculoskel-etal Transplant Foundation in Jessup.

Kitchens near the bridge, is“happy that it’s open,” althoughhe admitted the closed bridgehad little effect on his business.“Ours is a destination busi-

ness, not a spur of the momentsale,” he said. “A kitchen is awell-planned decision becauseof the cost involved.”Nause said customers made

every effort to get around thedetour to get to his businesswhich does not depend on re-tail flow.“It was, however, a huge nui-

sance for tractor trailers deliv-ering product,” he admitted,explaining how trucks neededto be re-routed to Main Street

around Offset Paperback toreach his business.The story is different for

Greg Williams, owner of Studio309 Music Antiques and Col-lectibles, who said his businesssuffered tremendously duringthe bridge reconstruction.Williams rented a building

on the corner of Main and Cen-ter Streets that he lived in asan 18-year-old just two weeksbefore the bridge closed, notknowing about the construc-tion project.“We suffered dearly and pa-

tiently,” he said. “We dependentirely on retail traffic and theonly accessibility to our build-ing was through the back door.”

Williams added that he wasforced to sell a lot of his mer-chandise at area flea markets

and on Ebay during the bridgeproject.Of the bridge itself, however,

he said, “The bridge is gor-geous. It looks fantastic andhas done a lot to improve theinfrastructure of Shavertown.”Susan Collini, of Plastic and

Reconstructive Surgeons Ltd.at the intersection of CenterStreet and Route 309, mirrorsNause’s comments.“Although it was difficult for

people to get into the center,they did figure out a way to gethere,” she said. “We didn’t facethe same challenges the retailfolks did.”Collini does, however, feel

the Main Street/Center Streetintersection was safer than everduring the bridge reconstruc-tion. A 3-way stop sign had

been installed at the intersec-tion during the project, slow-ing traffic in all directions. Nowthat the bridge has re-opened,the third stop sign has been re-moved.“I’ve seen so many near ac-

cidents at that intersectionbefore the 3-way stop sign wasinstalled,” Collini said. “It’s adangerous intersection. Wehave actually petitioned thetownship to put in a 4-way stopsign.”As for the completed bridge

project, Collini said, “It’s won-derful. It’s been a long timecoming.”She commended the workers

and their attention to detail.“I know it was a lot of money

for the township but it was wellworth it.”

The Back Mountain Bandits girlsU13 Lacrosse team played in the Del-aware Valley Tournament on April 14at Warrior’s middle school in Ding-mans Ferry.The local girls were able to secure

wins in three out of the four games.Scoring for the Bandits included

eight goals for Christiana Leu, sixfor Jackie Kalinosky, six for MikellaMonoco, five for Lauren Delamater,five for Kate Roberts, three for Mor-gan Critchosin, two for Gabby Kroch-ta, two for Samantha Aben.The mid-fielders and attacks did a

great job moving the ball, thanks tothe efforts of Mackenzie Lasinski,Faith Butler, Rylee Critchosin, Sa-mantha Sutton and Margaret Mihal-ick.Goalie Emily Driscoll came under

fire. Her countless saves and strongdefensive efforts of Chloe-Lyn Os-borne, Caylin Patta and Olivia Za-blocky allowed the Bandits to stealvictory.

Lady Banditscompete intournament

Lake-Lehman’s defense is young,but still relatively experienced interms of the first-year Wyoming Val-ley Conference boys lacrosse league.The performance of that experi-

enced group has allowed the BlackKnights to move into second placeout of seven teams.“Our defense is very good,” said

T.J. Labar, a sophomore at PennState/Wilkes-Barre who moved upfrom assistant to head coach afterone non-league game this spring.Labar played on the first Lake-

Lehman team two years ago.The WVC includes two programs

still in their first year and the BlackKnights have managed to shut outthose teams in all three meetings.Lake-Lehman defeated North Po-cono, 13-0, in the conference open-er and, 6-0, Tuesday night. It alsoblanked Scranton Prep, 6-0.“Our defense is strong so we’re

emphasizing defense,” Labar said.“We’re improving on offense.“As long as we can hold the ball, we

should be able to keep improving.”Lake-Lehman is 5-3 in conference

play with the help of sophomoregoalie Jake Yaple, sophomore defend-er Phil Hettes and junior defenderJustin Winters, who are all returningstarters.Sophomore Dave Kessner played

in the shutout of Scranton Prep, buthas been sidelined by an injury. Se-nior Hunter Hackling has taken overon defense in Kessner’s absence.Labar said Yaple, who came up

through the Back Mountain Banditsprogram and has played the sport for10 years, is one of the best goalies inthe league.“He’s very athletic,” Labar said.

“He’s quick to react and he knowshow to keep himself inside the cageand how to read shooters.“He does a good job, even on close

shots, of confusing the shooters.”Yaple is just one example of how

Lake-Lehman benefits from expe-rience in a sport still largely in itsgrowth stage in northeastern Penn-sylvania.“Most of the kids have played for

the Back Mountain Bandits andnow Lehman has its own junior highteam,” Labar said. “We’re an up-and-coming team.“I was expecting that we could

have this kind of season.”Lake-Lehman trails only unbeaten

Delaware Valley in the WVC stand-ings. They have the only two winningrecords while Dallas is in third placewith a .500 record.

Black Knightssecond inlacrosse league

Mark Ross has at least two reasons to believe de-fensive line play will be improved when MisericordiaUniversity enters its second season of football in thefall.Ross pointed out the defensive line as one of two

position groups that appear promising in recruitingand also likes progress that he sees from the return-ing group in spring practices.The National Collegiate Athletic Association al-

lows Division III football programs 16 days of springpractice, but Ross said it is not in the format of whatpeople might see on television with Division I teams.“It’s more individual emphasis and technique,” the

Cougars head coach said. “We’re not allowed to useany pads.”Former Dallas High School coach Ted Jackson, a

part-time member of the Misericordia coaching staff,has worked with defensive linemen this spring afterdealing with inside linebackers last season.“He’s raised the skill level and technique of our

defensive linemen,” Ross said of Jackson, who wasrecently selected for induction in the PennsylvaniaState Football Coaches Association Hall of Fame.Jackson, who went 227-79-3 and won a state title

in 27 years at Dallas, will be honored June 15 in Har-risburg as part of ceremonies in conjunction with theBig 33 Football Classic.

Ross said it was too early to talk specifically aboutindividual recruits, but he did say that defensive lineand quarterback were the two areas where the pro-gram made important progress in terms of depth.“The majority of our recruiting for this year is

done, although at our level, and particularly this year,there are still a number of potential candidates weare working with at this point,” Ross said. “There aresome position groups that we felt like, going in, weneeded to improve our depth.“Quarterback was one of them. At the end of the

year, we had only two.”The Cougars were shut out five times, including

three of their final four games, while going 0-10 intheir debut season.The 2012 team was put together for the first time

and built from a two-person recruiting effort the yearbefore. With his staff complete, Ross was one of fivecoaches able to work on recruiting this spring.“We have a better handle on the kids coming in,”

Ross said. “There’s not as much guesswork.“With some of the kids we brought in last year,

once we saw what they could do, we had to put themin other spots.”The first Misericordia team included just one play-

er from each of the two Back Mountain high schools.It did, however, get significant contributions from

those two. Lake-Lehman graduate Cody Lamoureuxled the team in rushing while Dallas graduate PaulBrace was the leading receiver.Ross said Brace does not plan to return next sea-

son, but Lamoureux will be back.Lamoureux, who ran for 339 yards on 103 carries,

was one of the players who served as the single run-ning back in the pistol formation the Cougars oftenemployed. Misericordia ran most of its attack fromshot gun formation with either one tight end andthree wide receivers or two tight ends and two widereceivers.Ross said the team is experimenting with a few

“schematic issues” within its offense, but the generalapproach is likely to remain the same.
