Friends and family of 22-year-
old Paige Selenski werent exact-
ly surprised when the 2008 Dal-
las High School graduate was re-
cently named to the U.S. Olym-
pic Field Hockey Team.
Well, yes and no, said Paiges
father Brian Selenski, of Shaver-
town. You know from the
coaches whats going on and
whos doing well but then youre
holding your breath because you
never know.
For Selenski, a University of
Virginia senior majoring in En-
glish, making the team was a
long time coming.
Brian Selenski said his daugh-
ter was first introduced to the
sport as a seventh-grader at Dal-
las Middle School by her late
mother Judys suggestion to join
a field hockey camp.
And the rest is the stuff of
Olympians.
Selenski joined the junior high
team at Dallas and earned a
starting spot on the varsity team
by her freshman year.
Former coach Mary Kate
Stauffer said its evident that Se-
lenski has no one but herself to
credit for her success.
Paige was and continues to
be head and shoulders above the
rest of her peers in terms of her
skills, said Stauffer, who
coached all four years of Selen-
skis high school career. From
an early age, she knew how to
harness her talents and definite-
ly worked hard.
It was during that time when
Selenski lost her mother to can-
cer, and Brian Selenski wanted
to make sure his daughter con-
tinued on her athletic path as
long as she enjoyed the game.
I asked her if she wanted to
continue and she said yes,
Brian said. My wife was there
right down to the end. When she

play at the Olympics?

The Back Mountain may be a
small part of a bigger problem
when it comes to animal over-
population, but animal welfare
experts say everyone can help
when it comes to preventing the
grim fate that awaits these ani-
mals.
Officials said the most press-
ing issue is controlling the feral
cat population, which can be hin-
dered by ensuring ones pets are
spayed and neutered.
In 2011, all stray cats that
came through the Luzerne
County Society for the Preven-
tion of Cruelty to Animals
(SPCA)s doors from Jackson,
Lake, Lehman and Ross town-
ships were euthanized.
Those 30 cats, most likely fer-
al, were put down because they
were ill or a potential danger to
people.
Luzerne County SPCA Direc-
tor of Development Peggy Nork
said two adult feral cats, de-
scendants of domesticated cats
that have returned to the wild,
can produce about 12,000 offspr-
ing in five years.
That being said, it doesnt
take long for that neighbors
house, whos feeding two stray
cats, to become the nuisance
house in the neighborhood
where everybody is upset with
the amount of cats that are
there, the smell of feces or urine.
It happens very quickly, she
said.
Nork said those wild animals
are more prone to illness and
may be too aggressive to be
adopted, though the SPCA holds
an animal for 48 hours before de-
ciding whether to put it up for
adoption or have it euthanized.
Because the animals are typ-
ically not spayed or neutered,
one stray cat can quickly turn in-
to a pack of wild animals on
ones doorstep.
A lot of these municipalities
dont have animal enforcement
officers, and because they dont,
we are receiving those animals
from just the residents in the
community, therefore (munici-
palities) dont know how many
animals were bringing in from
their community, said Nork.
Nork is trying to meet with
municipal leaders to discuss
these numbers and promote
ways to educate communities
about the costs of taking in ani-
mals as well as ways to prevent
overpopulation.
(Municipal leaders) need to
educate their community not to
feed stray cats, she said. If a
stray cat is in your neighbor-
hood, the best thing for you to
do for that cat is bring it to the
SPCA. If its a social cat or can be
socialized, well get it adopted.
She said residents in commu-
nities may want to feed stray
cats in an attempt to help, but
that action usually does more
harm than good.
The alternative of it living
and fending for itself is not
good, Nork said of wild ani-
mals. (The cat) will eventually
get diseases and will affect any
other cat thats let out so if you
have an indoor cat that you let
out occasionally, your cat is sus-
ceptible to getting these diseases
that cats transmit.
Kingston Township Manager
Kathleen Sebastian said stray
cats are always a problem in the
township, and education is the
only way to solve it.
I did hours of research to see
if we could drawup an ordinance
to control this, but there are no
state or federal regulations on
feral cats, said Sebastian.
Under an animal ordinance in
Kingston Township, property
owners are limited to five dogs
in one household. Sebastian said
feral cats are not included be-
cause the township cannot prove
ownership of those animals.
People just say, Thats not
my cat, she said.
Sebastian said one homeown-
er on Spring Street in Shaver-
town had nearly 60 cats due to
feeding strays.
We try to tell residents that it
makes their lives worse, Sebas-
tian said of the cats. When a res-
ident feeds them, they cant hunt
for themselves.
Taking in feral cats can even
be a problem for no-kill animal
shelters like Blue Chip Farms
Animal Refuge in Orange.
Marge Bart, founder of the
nonprofit shelter, said the refuge
is overrun by stray cats, but
more kittens keep showing up
on its doorstep.
Bart said feral cats are a prob-
lem because the 150 civil,
friendly cats being housed at
the shelter cant even find
homes.
First, we take them to the vet
to see if they have feline leuke-
mia or any other illness, said
Bart. If they do, we destroy
them because they cant recover
from that.
All animals that pass through
Blue Chips doors are spayed and
neutered, no matter what, said
Bart.
If the cat is healthy, shelter
volunteers will attempt to reha-
bilitate the animal, but feral cats
are usually given to farmers to
keep rodent populations in
check.
Thats all we can do, really,
she said.
The most important lesson
animal welfare experts want to
stress is ensuring all pets are
spayed and neutered. Not only
does the action help control the
overpopulation of animals in a
community but, according to
Nork, it keeps animals healthier
longer.
It makes them more of a con-
tent animal, she said. If you
have a male or female cat at
home and its not spayed or neu-
tered, the male cat will start to
spray in the home, the female cat
will go into heat, attracting oth-
er cats in the neighborhood. Its
just healthier for them altogeth-
er.
The Luzerne County SPCA of-
fers a spay and neuter assist pro-
gram for low-income families.
Nork said the numbers of strays
has declined since the beginning
of this and other similar pro-
grams.
Cat numbers are definitely
coming down in our community
but not nearly as much as they
should, she said.

F O R M O R E I N F O R M AT I O N
Eli Chapel was waiting for
something good to pass over
the block at the Back Moun-
tain Memorial Library Chil-
drens Auction on July 7.
Prices stayed pretty low, but
a multiple-cartridge Super
Soaker-type pumping water
gun caught Chapels eye.
And though he didnt have
much money to work with,
Chapel knew his father would
help him if he really needed
the extra cash.
Despite having only $18 to
spend, Chapel raised his hand
high until the guns price
soared past $26. Thats when
he reluctantly gave up the bid-
ding war.
I like it because it could
hold a lot of water, said Chap-
el, 10, of Dallas. But (the
price is) too high.
Attending the childrens auc-
tion is a tradition in the Chap-
el family the clan has been
flocking to the block for years.
(Elis father, Mark) has
been coming to the auction
since he was old enough to
walk, said Marks mother,
Mary Chapel.
Mark Chapel wants his son
to be part of the event hes
known since he was a little
boy.
Its given him a chance to
live the auction experience,
he said.
The childrens auction is
chaired by Ron and Judy San-
tora. Ron is Scout Leader of
Boy Scout Troop 281 of Dal-
las, and the Scouts help run
the event during its four-hour
time slot.
The Santoras son, Andrew,
gets to practice his auctioneer-
ing skills during the event,
which led to his first night-
time chanting experience one
year.
Our son Andrew was in
sixth grade when we first got
involved, said Judy. He loves
it the auctioneers have been
so welcoming.
The Santoras store the thou-
sands of items up for bid, from
playground equipment to dolls
to brand-new bikes, at their
home before the auction.
Judy said most of the items
get sold somehow, whether its
at the auction or in tents dur-
ing the evening activities.
Some goes into our attic
for next year, but we hope that
doesnt happen, she said,
laughing.
Two plastic bags filled with
Bratz dolls wont be placed in
the Santoras attic this year.
The auction spoils sat in the
lap of 6-year-old Sarah Burd,
of Centermoreland, after her
mother easily won the dolls by
offering the only bid.
I just started, and they had
four items and I bid on three,
said Kathy Burd.
She said the prices are too
good not to bid on the items
for Sarah and 8-year-old Ste-
ven. They sat in the front row
before the block as Mom
stood, waving her hand for My
Little Pony memorabilia.
I do it for my kids, she
said.

Dear Editor:
The Wyoming Valley has been
fortunate so far in fending off any
possible injuries from the gas
drilling boom. We faced possible
loss of our Valley water supply by
gas drilling next to our reser-
voirs. This possibility of chem-
icals used in gas drilling, causing
forever loss of drinking water,
made some see this industry as a
problem and stood up for us.
Then the city of Wilkes Barre
was asked to allow hundreds of
trucks each day to come through
towns carrying chemically-laced
water. A few more Valley resi-
dents were added to the list of
people seeing this industry as a
problem. The problem they were
finally realizing was this industry
can change your daily and future
life from what we want to what
they need. They need us to alter
our lives to conduct their busi-
ness.
Nowwe are faced with another
possible sacrifice so the gas in-
dustry can conduct its business
a compressor station on a moun-
tain top in West Wyoming over-
looking our Valley to the east and
our Frances SlocumState Park to
the west. This will forever put
known toxic contaminates into
our air that will settle into our
Valley.
This compressor station con-
sists of three huge engines to pro-
duce pressure to push the gas
through the 24-inch main pipe.
These run, constantly spewing
known cancer-causing and other
toxic anti-goodhealthexhaust in-
to the air.
The specs for these three en-
gines are at a level, gas company
says ok, questionably over ac-
ceptable limits of pollution. Best
part is - every compressor station
gets increased to maybe nine en-
gines eventually. Uhoh! Lets see,
we take boarder line pollution x 3
= __.
Ah gee, we dont need all these
people living in our Valley; we
can spare some lives. This is the
first compressor station with
maybe nine engines of who
knows howmany more scattered
around our Valley.
Wait for the plus there are
other polluting things at these
sites. Great! First our water and
now our air.
Remember, please, that our
reservoirs are still at riskwhenall
other gas inPa. is gone except the
gas near our water supplies. Our
shale gas is an industrial busi-
ness. Ive been trying not to use
the word profit but I must. Its a
business!
Its time once again to get off
the couchandstandupandsay, I
am not a necessary profit sacri-
fice.
Interjection: We must say
thank you for our new Health
Care Act just passed by our Su-
preme Court. Why ? Pre-existing
conditions are now covered. We
will eventually have one, unless
we stand up for our Valley.

Reader shares gas
drilling boom concerns
By Samantha Weaver
It was beloved cowboy humorist Will Rogers who made the
following sage observation: Nobody wants to be called common
people, especially common people.
Do you think you could eat 80 pounds of chicken? If youre
like the average American, thats how much you will consume this
year.
Youve probably heard or even used the term fly off the
handle to describe someone losing their temper. You probably
dont realize, though, that the handle referred to was originally an
axe handle. Sometimes the blade of such a tool would be impro-
perly fastened to the handle, and would therefore be sent flying
when the axe was being used.
The composer who wrote the famous song Que Sera, Sera
also wrote the theme song to the 1960s TV show Mr. Ed.
Those who study such things say that Englands Elizabeth I
owned 3,000 dresses.
If you make a trip to Venice to see the famous canals, keep an
eye out for any gondola not painted black. If you see one, you can
be sure that it belongs to a high official in the government; they
are the only ones permitted by law to have gondolas in any other
color.
The worlds single largest consumer of fossil fuels is the Unit-
ed States military.
You might be surprised to learn that, according to the Amer-
ican Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, half of all
American children suffer at least one dog bite before the age of 12.
The ASPCA also says that most of those bites arent from strange
animals; rather, its the family pet or a friend or neighbors dog
that does the biting.

got sick she would still go to see
the games, and even when she
wasnt feeling well she would
watch the games from the car.
Brian believes that kind of
support is what keeps the field
hockey star so motivated.
I think part of her playing is
for my wife, he said. I think it
gets her adrenaline up, especial-
ly when she gets into a slump
during a game.
Selenski pressed on and con-
tinued to excel throughout her
career at Dallas. Stauffer, who
played field hockey at a New Jer-
sey high school that produced
Olympians, said Selenski was a
quiet leader whose passion
and dedication for the sport
were always apparent.
The girl knew what she was
doing, said Stauffer. She had a
lot of drive, and there were many
things that were God-given to
her in terms of skill and desire to
be successful. She was always ex-
tremely passionate about com-
peting. Hockey was her thing.
Robyn Jones, a Dallas High
School guidance counselor and
former field hockey coach, plans
to attend the 2012 Olympic
Games in London this month to
watch Selenski perform.
Im especially excited about
the game on July 31, when the
United States team faces Argen-
tina, she said. Its going to be a
war.
Jones believes its the support
that Selenski received through-
out the years that contributes to
the field hockey players success.
Paiges success as a student
athlete can be attributed to, first
and foremost, her tenacious
work ethic, second, her God-giv-
en talent and third, her innate
intelligence, said Jones. And
very importantly, her family up-
bringing. Judy was very invested
in her daughter, academically
and athletically, and Dad has
done a wonderful job since Judy
passed away of continuing to
parent her. Her momand dad are
huge contributors to her suc-
cess.
Brian Selenski said response
from the community has been
overwhelming.
When she was first named to
the team, the phone never stop-
ped ringing, he said. Even Ro-
byn Jones and the principal at
Dallas said the phones at the
school were ringing off the hook
when it was announced.
Selenski is the middle child
shes big sister to 18-year-old
Greg and younger sibling to 25-
year-old Brad. Her father said no
one else in the family has forayed
into sports as extensively as his
daughter.
The boys played Little
League and soccer, and Greg is
now recreationally into golf,
said Brian Selenski.
Greg Selenski said its been an
interesting ride watching his sis-
ter rise through the field hockey
ranks.
Its been an experience, he
said. Our vacations revolved
around it for a while.
But as the young woman pre-
pares to take on international
teams in London, Brian Selenski
is sure the games wont be his
daughters last.
I dont think this is going to
be the end, he said. I think
shes going to stay on for the
World Cup.
Until then, Brian Selenski and
the rest of the family are enjoy-
ing Paiges Olympic success.
Sometimes I think its a
dream, he said. I mean, what
are the chances that your son or
daughter is going to play at the
Olympics?
Brian Selenski, right, talks about his daughter Paige, a member of
the U.S. field hockey teamand a 2008 graduate of Dallas High
School, with his son Greg at their home in Shavertown.

ship, said the childrens auction
gives youngsters a chance to
act like grownups during the
iconic Back Mountain event.
It gives children the oppor-
tunity to bid because they see
their parents doing it, she
said. I know my son follows
by example. Hes away right
now, so Im his surrogate bid-
der.
Jackie Dwinchick, of Moosic,
got into a heated bidding war
for a pink bike with training
wheels as the temperature rose
on the hot and hazy morning.
Dwinchick, whose father-in-
law Joe is one of the many
longtime auction volunteers,
lasted until the price of the
bike rose to $50, when she gra-
ciously bowed out of the duel.
Her niece, 4-year-old Emma
Singleton, didnt seem to mind.
It was too much, she said.
But a typical bike like that
would be about $75 in stores.
Dwinchick went to the auc-
tion every night looking for
deals and enjoying the atmo-
sphere and thinks the chil-
drens auction gives youngsters
a chance to experience the
event on a different level.
Even at the young age of 4,
Singleton knew what she want-
ed.
Emmas looking for climb-
ing toys and Carebears, said
Dwinchick.
Seven-year-old Kira Pom-
rinke, of Dallas, walked around
with her grandmother, Glenda,
scoping out the good buys dur-
ing the event.
Ill bid on anything, said
Kira. I like stuffed animals and
dolls.
Though Kira was doing the
bidding, grandmother and her
pocketbook were on hand to
offer guidance and greenbacks.
Id tell her, Dont want it
too much, said Glenda, an
auction veteran.

BMT Stars shine
in post-season play
The staff of Watkins & Medu-
ra Family and Cosmetic Dental
Center recently celebrated the
40thyear of Dr. LeonardMedura
Sr.s private practice at a lun-
cheon at Leggios Ristorante in
Dallas.
Medura said the actual date of
his foray into private dentistry
was July 5, 1972 shortly after
the flood caused by Hurricane
Agnes caused the evacuation of
the Wyoming Valley.
It was a crazy era in which we
started, said Medura, who prac-
ticed dentistry in the U.S. Navy
for three years before joining Dr.
Scott Watkins. A lot of dentists
lost their practices, and we got
busyfromtheget-go. Peoplethat
were displaced and needed a
dentist, we were there for them.
The practice got its start in
Shavertown and eventually
moved to Dallas. Medura, 69,
said its not the teeth, but the
people that keep him coming to
work each day.
Im not working full-time
hours, but I dont think I could
just retire, he said.
Staff member Mary Majewski
has worked for Medura since
1980 and enjoys seeing the gen-
erations of families coming back
to the office and the atmosphere
of the company.
Were like a family, she said.
Majewski said the staff gifted
Medura with the ability to buy
more plants for his home gar-
den, which he treasures.
Dr. Leonard Medura notes 40th anniversary
