by Stephanie LongoCNG EDITOR

“There was Cary Grant and then everyoneelse was an also-ran.”When Peter Bogdanovich made that state-

ment, he was referring to Grant’s comedic turnin 1937’s “The Awful Truth,” which, the filmhistorian claimed, marked when the formerArchibald Leach of Bristol, England, becamethe dashing, debonair sex symbol who is stillloved today.The Taylor Community Library, 710 S.

Main St., will celebrate Grant’s legacy by of-fering a film festival in his honor throughoutthe month of April, beginning with “BringingUp Baby” on Thursday, April 9; “Talk of theTown”, on Thursday, April 16; “Room for OneMore” on Thursday, April 23; and “Charade”on Thursday, April 30. All films will begin at6:30 p.m.Library director Jeanie Sluck, who readily

declared Grant as her favorite actor, closelystudied his career. Having always wanted tohost a film festival for adults at the library, shedecided to use it as an opportunity to introducepeople to the man Alfred Hitchcock called“The only actor I ever loved in my whole life.”All of the films will be shown in order of pro-duction, one for each decade of Grant’s career.Sluck vividly remembers the first time she

saw Grant on screen.“I fell in love with him when I was a junior

in high school,” she recalled. “My nana was inthe hospital and my mom was spending all hertime there. My dad, being a typical dad, wentto bed and thought I would soon follow. Howwrong he was! WVIA Channel 44 used toshow movies Monday through Friday eveningsat 11:30 p.m. and 1 a.m. I starting watching‘Mr. Lucky’ and was hooked. That entire weekwas devoted to Cary Grant films and I’ve beenhis number one fan ever since.”Knowing that other people may get hooked

on Grant as a result of this festival, Sluckalso plans on having a display at the librarythat will include biographies of him; includ-

ing “Dear Cary,” written by Dyan Cannon,his fourth wife and mother of his only child.Cannon and Grant’s daughter, Jennifer, alsobecame an actresses.“There are so many reasons that make Cary

Grant appealing — everything from his hyp-notic brown eyes, his charming smile, the cleftof his chin and definitely his accent,” Slucksaid. “I think another reason why people findhim appealing is that no matter if he is playingthe common man or the gentleman thief he

does it all with style and class.”Sluck will present an overview of each film

before it begins and there will be discussionsafter they conclude. There will also be refresh-ments available. Admission is free with a li-brary card and if someone wants to attend anddoes not possess a Lackawanna County LibrarySystem card, they can apply on the spot or visitlclshome.org/join to apply online.For more information, call the Taylor Com-

munity Library at 570-562-1234.

Taking the HelmZuby returns as Lady Vikes’ coach

by Dave LaurihaTRIBORO BANNER WRITER

Mike Zuby has seen how important build-ing relationships can be, both in sports as ayoungster and more recently as a policemanin Taylor.But the 1997 Riverside graduate has a

new arena to do such things, as he has begunhis first year heading the Lady Vikings trackand field program. Zuby, a standout sprinterand hurdler with the Vikings during his highschool years, is hoping his access to studentswill pay dividends with his work in track.“I’m the student resource officer at Riv-

erside,” Zuby said. “I’m a Taylor policeman,so I have the ability of building relationshipswith the kids while I’m in the school andhelping the program build back to where itused to be. ”Zuby, who succeeds Deb Kapelan as the

head coach, wants to be whatever the girlsneed him to be.“[I can provide] guidance and be a moral

supporter and help them believe in them-selves, take a good look at themselves, andunderstand that I’mhere to help them,” Zubysaid.Because of the weather, there haven’t

been that many opportunities to run thoseevents yet this season.“We got out on the track last week, but it

was pretty icy up there,” Zuby said. “Back inthe day, we used to go up there and shovel itto run. Now, with the rubber track, it’s notan easy thing to do because you don’t wantto ruin it in any way.”He has noticed other differences from his

time at Riverside as an athlete to his timethere now in his current position.“The biggest change is the desire for par-

ticipation. We have 26 girls on the team;back in the day, we had nine kids out for theteam, but wewere running four events each,”Zuby said. “We have more numbers thesedays. We’re looking to condition these girlsso they have confidence; I want to build uptheir confidence. The interest in participa-tion has grown and maybe with me beingsomeone that they look up to as a resource of-ficer or policeman has something to do withthat for some of them. Everyone’s there for a

different reason.”Sorting out the talent has been tougher

as Zuby hasn’t had many chances to see thegirls on the track because of the weather, buthe has gotten glimmers of hope from someof his athletes, who not only are getting usedto a new coach, but also growing a bit wearyfrom all the indoor practices because of theconditions.“We’ve adjusted. We started working in-

side doing multiple different types of condi-tioning training, trying to build the strengthof the girls so when they finally get out onthe track and they start hitting these hardworkouts, their bodies can adjust and not beso shocked from the hard practices we haveon the track,” Zuby said. “It’s been a slow pro-cess with the weather. Now that we’re out,we’re really hitting it hard, and I’m seeing alot of commitments from certain girls who’vebeen there awhile. There are a few newcom-ers who have impressed us and we’re lookingfor some good things from those newcomers.”Zuby credits his staff with being a great

help getting him adapted to coaching, espe-cially one in particular.“I have my coach, the guy who coached

me in high school, Frank Surdy, who was atScrantonPrep for 15 years andwent toWest-ern Wayne and had two successful programsthere,” Zuby said. “He’s taken me under hiswing.”Zuby hopes that he is able to pass along

what he learned under Surdy’s tutelage to anew generation of Riverside track athletes,who are coming to the team from a wide va-riety of backgrounds.“Some of girls came from the cross coun-

try team, somewere cheerleaders, some comefrom basketball,” Zuby said. “There are a lotof walks of life here, so they’re juggling alot of these things at the same time, whichmakes it difficult, because they’re trying to dotwo things.”While allowing the girls to fill their sched-

ules with multiple activities, Zuby is hopingthat they will continue to make track a pri-ority. Compared to how few athletes partici-pated in the sport when Zuby was an athlete,he understands the longer the participantslist is, the greater chance he’ll be able to getthe program where he wants it to be.

Tax Help: State Rep. Marty Flynn, D-Lackawanna, said his office has applicationsavailable for the state’s popular Property Tax/Rent Rebate Program.

“Eligible residents can claim rebates onproperty taxes or rent paid in 2014, and thedeadline is June 30, 2015, so I recommendmy constituents get a head start on filing theirclaims,” Flynn said. “If help is needed, don’thesitate to come to my office for free assis-tance.”

Flynn’s office is located at 409 N. MainAve. in Jay’s Commons, Scranton; the phonenumber is 570-342-4348.This program benefits Pennsylvania resi-

dents 65 or older, widows and widowers 50or older, and disabled people 18 or older.The filer’s income must not exceed $35,000a year for homeowners or $15,000 a year forrenters, and half of Social Security income isexcluded.

Applications can also be filed online atwww.revenue.pa.gov or by calling (888) 222-9190. Rebates will be distributed beginningJuly 1.

Additionally, changes to the programlast year, which Flynn supported, now al-low rebate claims to be filed by spouses, per-sonal representatives or estates on behalf ofdeceased claimants who meet all qualifyingcriteria and lived at least one day in 2014,rather than the entire year. Another changeexcludes Social Security cost-of-living ad-justments from being considered, in case theCOLA pushes an applicant out of eligibility.Last year, more than $276 million in

property tax and rent rebates were sent tomore than 578,000 homeowners and rentersthroughout Pennsylvania.
