American idols
Although I’d eventually earn
a degree in psychology and
spend my lifetime in journal-
ism, I began college as an art
major. One of the reasons for
that involved a cool but sunny
late October morning on Main
Street in Pittston and a guy
named Paul Reggie.
I was 10 years old, two days
away from turning 11, the day
Paul Reggie became my idol.
That he never knew the influen-
ce he had on my life saddened
me when I read his obituary
Wednesday morning. Paul was
just 66. I guess I always thought
I’d bump into him one day and
let him know.
Paul was a senior in high
school when he won the Hallo-
ween window painting contest
in Pittston in 1960. The city’s
downtown was bustling in those
days. There were more than 100
stores and on the days leading
up to Halloween, scores of
schools kids could be seen on
the sidewalks out front using
tempera paints to decorate the
windows with Halloween art.
The paintings were massive,
four feet by five feet or more,
and for a kid like me who could
draw before he could write,
seeing them was mesmerizing.
For one day, this was my
Louvre, the closest I could get
to original art.
I never forgot the painting – a
witch – that won Paul first
place that year. I never forgot
that it was on a window at Sale-
tin’s department store, or that
on the opposite window was an
equally inspiring work by an-
other of my early idols, Joan
Skechus.
Although we lived in the
same town and although Paul’s
younger brother Rich and I
would become friends, to the
best of my knowledge, Paul and
I never met. Still, he was the
guy that at 10 years old, almost
11, I wanted to be.
There were others.
And for other reasons.
Like Johnny Sarti.
Three weeks ago at the Sun-
day Dispatch Person of the Year
reception, as I handled the
duties of master of ceremonies,
I kept making eye contact with
a guy at the front table. He
nodded his approval at the right
times and laughed at the right
times, and I was glad he was
there.
We had a chance to chat later
and when he said, “You don’t
know who I am, do you?” I had
to admit I did not.
He gave me a hint: “When
you were a kid, I lived just a
few doors up the street.”
Still, I was baffled.
But when he finally revealed
his name, Johnny Sarti, I want-
ed to throw my arms around
him.
“Johnny,” I said, “you were
my idol.”
And he was.
I reminded him that he was
the guy who taught me how to
play a pinball machine and he
quickly put his index finger to
his lips and asked me not to tell
his daughters.
I was, again probably 10,
when Johnny Sarti took me
under his wing. He hardly re-
members it, but I surely do and
I told him why: when an older
kid pays even a little bit of
attention to a younger kid, it’s a
big deal. “You made me feel
important,” I said.
Johnny had a slightly differ-
ent take on our relationship of
50 years ago. “When a new
family moves into the neigh-
borhood and the oldest girl is as
beautiful as your sister Sheila,”
he explained, “it’s a good move
to be nice to her little brother.”
He said he hoped he didn’t
burst my bubble.
“It’s okay,” I assured him.
“You were still my idol.”
And there were others.
Like Mike Caputo, coach of
my farm team, the way he
rolled up the sleeves of his
plaid shirt. I started doing that.
And Whitey Scarantino, how
cool the white silk scarf draped
around his shoulders under his
black trench coat looked. I
asked my mom to buy me one.
And Hank Walker, the way
he walked back and forth in
front of the class teaching
American history without a
single written note. I wanted to
be that smart.
And Ned O’Malley, the dap-
per teller at First National
Bank. I wanted to dress like
him.
I always had idols when I was
growing up. But never Elvis
Presley, Mickey Mantle or even
any of the The Beatles. And
certainly no one elected from a
TV show. My idols were people
I knew, or at least people I got
to observe first hand.
As corny as it may sound, my
dad was always at the top of the
list, followed by my Uncle
Eddie, my Uncle Buddy and
even my kid brother Billy.
Then there are my friends. I
doubt they ever considered
themselves idols but they were
and are.
And to this day, the list keeps
growing.
Recent additions include my
own two kids. They won’t un-
derstand it and I don’t expect
them to, but to me they’ve be-
come idols nevertheless.

Science ‘rookies’ excel at PSU Olympiad

SUNDAY DISPATCH, SUNDAY, APRIL 3, 2011

First PA Middle School science team in five years proves science is fun
By Jack Smiles
Associate Editor

For a team full of rookies they did darn

well. The Pittston Area Middle School
Science Olympiad team placed14th out of
21 teams in the Science Olympiad March
9 at the Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus
in Lehman.
Since the school hadn’t fielded a sci-
ence team in five years, all 17 of the stu-
dents on this year’s team were participa-
ting for the first time. Of the 23 events in
the competition, the team took first place
in two, second in one and third in one.
Sixth grade science teacher Jill Quinn
and high school teacher J.J. Anthony are
the team’s coaches. Quinn, the moderator
of the Middle School Science club, said
she got the idea to revive the Olympiad
team after transferring from fifth grade to
the Middle School.
“I have a love of science. Once I got
comfortable with the curriculum, I want-
ed to take the kids beyond the classroom,”
Quinn said.
When she floated the idea to the club,17
students, most of them sixth graders, vol-

Pittston ... through Rose-colored glasses

Pro bono city manager Rose Randazzo is city’s biggest cheerleader
With Jack Smiles
Rose Randazzo grew up on
Pine Street in Pittston where her
mother Angela still lives. Her fa-
ther was Angelo Randazzo. She
is a lawyer and real estate devel-
oper with an office at 39 South
Main Street in the city, where
this interview took place.
She lives in Scranton with her
husband Geoffrey Pizzuto and
their son Geoffrey, nine.
She has a B.A. from Scranton
University and a law degree from
Villanova.
She is Pittston’s Downtown
Manager, which she does pro bo-
no.
Where did you go to high
school and what was it like?
Pittston Area, class of ’80.
Back then it was a simple life.
We hung out in the parking lot of
Burger King for fun. I was cap-
tain of the cheerleaders. We won
the Wyoming Area game. That
was a big thing. (Laughs)
What was cheerleading like
for you?
Cheerleading was a big part of
my life. Not only did I consider it
a sport when no one else did, I
felt that girls coming up didn’t
have any access to training or in-
formation about cheerleading.
So I wrote a cheerleading book
in 1982. It was called Champion
Cheerleading. I started selling it
by mail order, this was before the
internet. I did that from the time I
went to college through law
school. Then it kind of became
outdated when the internet came
alive.
Did you stay involved in
cheerleading in other ways?
Yes, I was the moderator of the
Pittston Area cheerleaders in
1982, ’83 when my sister Donna
was the captain. So I stayed in-
volved in cheerleading first as a
moderator, then as a business.
That ended about 1990.

How is cheerleading good for
girls?
Well, it is a sport. It’s very ath-
letic. There’s a lot of training and
a lot of competition involved. It
prepares them for life, because
life is competitive. It gives them
a good sense of themselves.
What do you remember
downtown Pittston being like
when you were young?
When I grew up, the down-
town was still vibrant. We still
had Woolworth’s. We still had
many restaurants. Sweetland.
The American Theater. I saw
many movies there with my
friends. Coming from Pine
Street we could walk downtown
and there was a lot to do.
When did you open an office
in Pittston?
I bought the old Valley Dress
After restoring a couple of
buildings and not seeing any im-
provement in the surrounding ar-
eas, I sort of gave up.
But eventually your faith
was restored?
For five of six years I was not
involved in the city. When Mayor
Klush came in he and Mike
Lombardo, the councilman, in-
vited me to be the downtown
manager. I volunteered because
there is nothing in the budget for
that type of work. I love my job
with the city and I try to devote as
many hours as I can.
What is an example of an
early success?
I wanted to see a new sign or-
dinance and that came to frui-
tion. Larry Newman wrote the
ordinance. I reviewed it. We had
input from the mayor, council.
One of the signs that came out of
that is the Palazzo sign. You’re
going to see a number of signs
that are going to go up with the
old village, wooden engraved
tee. Every time someone pulls a
permit to do any façade work on
Main Street or in the business
district they have to submit an ar-
chitectural rendering of what the
front elevation of that building is
going to look like and detail what
type of finishes they are going to
use. That has to be submitted to
the committee and we are al-
lowed, under the ordinance, to
give input as to what we expect to
see on the Main Street.
We’re taking that a step further
in the next couple months with
another ordinance about what
you can do to the façade on his-
torical buildings. We want to re-
store, we don’t want to demolish.
We have some historical build-
ing here that are beautiful and
need restoration.
What’s the key to revitaliza-
tion?
People. We have to get people
living downtown. We have a
number of projects, and I can’t
say where they are, but they in-
volve high end loft apartments in
other businesses can play off of sale. Or if someone wants to put

When did you get involved

When Mike Lombardo ran for
mayor. I was on his campaign
committee and I was special so-
licitor for him. I was very in-
volved in the city then. Then I
had the baby and moved to
Scranton. One of the reasons I
stopped being involved with the
Main Street was because council
wasn’t willing to take that extra
ware. So if a new business came
into town they would just put
new panels in them. The signs
deteriorated. Now what we’re

We’re noticing something on the sec-
ond block of South Main Street on Friday
and Saturday nights which we haven’t
seen in a long time – cars and people. Pa-
lazzo 51 is hopping. There is always
something going on at the Knights of Co-
lumbus. Rooney’s Pub is benefiting from
the spill over, as people stop there for live
entertainment and a pint of ale.
We hear Chris Barcia of Palazzo 51 is
considering opening another restaurant
and there have been nibbles at the old Bot-
toms Up, a place ripe for a tomato-themed
bar and restaurant.
During the day the CoffeeTable is the in
place to go for breakfast and lunch and
they are adding ice cream to their menu
and considering staying open into the eve-
ning. Across the street Yore Antiques is
proving naysayers wrong. Around the
corner Village Variety is a good place to
find estate jewelry.
While not on Main Street, Cooper’s res-
turant and pub certainly adds to the down-
town appeal.

MARIA REMEMBERS
Where the journey ends
In a little town surrounded, embraced and pro-
tected by a majestic blue green mountain range in a
much simpler time when life seemed carefree lived
three young girls who shared their secrets and
dreams because they were best friends. They did
everything and went everywhere together.
Most summer nights after their chores were done
they gathered on the front steps of Marie’s house or
on the corner in front of Rose’s house where Mama
was able to keep her eyes on them. It was there they
talked and dreamed about what they wanted to be
when they grew up.
Marie, the talented one with big blue eyes, milky
complexion and long curly blonde hair had a flair
for singing and dancing. Of course all the lessons
and recitals at the Hilda Van Mertz’s Studio helped
a whole lot. “I want to be in show business and sing
on Broadway like Mary Martin.” Who even knew
who Mary Martin was?
Dreamingly with a flair and the stance of a great
artist she would announce: “When I make it big,
become a star with my name in lights I will send
both of you a jewel case made of solid gold that will
hold diamonds, pearls and sapphires.”
Anne, who made us laugh at the silliest things,
was full of daring . Her black mischievous eyes
sparkled and lit up her face with dreaming. “I want
to travel the great oceans of the world in big beauti-
ful ships that voyage to exotic places. When I have
travel around the world and have seen its greatness
I will come home and share my adventures with
you.”
Rose, the sensible one with the unmanageable
hair and talking brown eye,s had no big dreams for
she was happy living in the valley where the
crooked river skirted her town. Where the church
steeples looked upward to heaven as a reminder
that God watched over us.
“When I grow up I will stay here among the peo-
ple whom I love and work with them. I will try to
make life better in any way that I can.”
The years went by and their closeness remained.
They had so much in common, school, church,
friends, and ideas.
It was shortly after high school graduation with
no surprise to Anne and Rose that Marie an-
nounced she was moving to New York to follow her
dream. She was full of hope and so happy. “Re-
member when you receive the gold box you will
know I made it big.”
Anne put off her dream of travel. She had en-
rolled in the local hospital to become a nurse. Deep
within her was a calling to do God’s work in heal-
ing the sick.
As for Rose, her life was in the valley with all
things, people and places familiar and cherished.
Her delight was the look of the mountains with
each changing season, the church steeples that
could be seen from every direction of town, the
hustle and bustle of Main Street during the holiday
seasons and the movie theater that played all the big
time movies with her favorite actors and actresses.
Maria Capolarella Montante
It was right that she stayed.
Years pass with the involvement of life and many
times goes unnoticed. The bond and memories of
friendships are unintentionally tucked away with
another time and place.
It was Christmas time and the stores on Fifth
Avenue in New York were beautifully decorated.
Shoppers with arms full of packages smiling and
laughing crowded the streets. They seem to have
purpose and joy.
There was no joy in Marie’s heart. Although she
had achieved success dancing on the Broadway
stage and singing in clubs there were things in her
life she was not proud of. More and more a feeling
of emptiness and despair overtook her spirit. The
beat of the music, the loudness of laughter drove
her deeper within herself. She was searching and
for what she did not know.
Passing St. Patrick’s Cathedral memories of
Christmases in her little church at home were in her
mind. The organ music and the voices of the choir
drew her to the crèche. Her eyes fell on the beauti-
ful jewel box carried by a Wise Man and remem-
bered the unfilled promise of the gold box filled
with jewels that she was to send her friends
A feeling of unworthiness throbbed within her
heart. Tears fell upon her face.
Then she looked into another box that was filled
with hay and the eyes of infant lying there with
open arms whispered to her heart “Come home.”
Finally she understood the emptiness. That box
was holding the most precious jewel of mankind.
Anne fulfilled her dream and became a world
traveler. She was a traveling nurse on a luxury liner.
Through the years she traveled to many countries
and continents, had seen the wonders of the world,
watched the sun rise and set upon the waters, felt
the swell of the ocean through stormy times and
had felt the sun upon her face seated on the decks of
mighty ships. The ocean liners had become her
home.
Weariness or was it loneliness that was overtak-
ing her? The adventurous feeling had long been
gone. It was replaced with the nothingness of no
accomplishments. What had her contribution to
life and society been.? Deep within her was the
knowledge of the need for change.
One day as Anne strolled the deck she came
across a child sitting in a wheel chair with a loving
mother close beside him. She didn’t need a medical
journal to know that the child was gravely ill. Her
heart ached for child and mother.
For days she was haunted by the sight and the
look of sorrow upon the mother’s face. It reminded
her of Mary’s face as she stood beneath the cross of
Jesus. It was then she knew where and what she
must do.
Rose’s life was ideal. She had married the hand-
some guy who lived a few houses away. They were
the parents of two beautiful children. He ran a suc-
cessful business and they were surrounded by a

Which plastic is it?
Roaming around the grocery store, opening up your refrigerator or
just stop and buy gas, plastic containers are everywhere. Some con-
tain water, some more acidic foods like orange juice, some hold hot
foods, some cold and yet some hold frozen foods. How could plastic
hold such a variety of foods?
In talking with a high school student, I asked them to read the num-
bers on the bottom of the containers. “Seven, it’s one of the more
popular made plastics along with a 1 or 2.” M’mm I said, how did you
know that? Ecology class he answered.
Well, I must be dating myself, because I wasn’t taught this in ecol-
ogy class. More than likely because plastic wasn’t used as widely as it
is today. The food industry changes by the minute. Hence, part 2 of
plastic in the microwave, which plastic is it?
Polyethylene Terephthalate, PET, or PETE 1;, High Density Poly-
ethylene HDPE, 2; Low Density Polyethylene LDPE 4 ; Polypropy-
lene PPP, 5; Polystyrene PS, 6; and lastly “Other” 7 all can possibly
contain food. The important take home message is to reuse only those
plastics that have been designed to be reused when storing foods. In
addition, use those containers which are specifically designed for the
microwave for use in the microwave. To that I will add freezer storage
also.
As a general rule, the most common plastics for food storage are
made from number 1, PET or PETE, or number 7, which can be a
package made with a resin other than the six listed above or is a com-
bination of two or more of them.
When using a microwave, it is important that the container doesn’t
break down and leach components (or the stuff that the container was
made of) into the food that you eat. This includes the container as well
as any item you choose to cover the container with such as plastic
wrap or paper towels. Glass works well because is it a very durable
surface. It also cleans very easily. There are other containers and
wraps, just read the container label before making your decision.
Both FDA and USDA conduct testing along with multiple re-
searchers in Universities. USDA gives us this advice when we make
decisions about what we use to microwave our foods in:
• Only use cookware that is specially manufactured for use in the
microwave oven. Glass, ceramic containers, and all plastics should be
labeled for microwave oven use.
• Plastic storage containers such as margarine tubs, take-out con-
tainers, whipped topping bowls, and other one-time use containers
should not be used in microwave ovens. These containers can warp or
melt, possibly causing harmful chemicals to migrate into the food.
• Microwave plastic wraps, wax paper, cooking bags, parchment
paper, and white microwave-safe paper towels should be safe to use.
Do not let plastic wrap touch foods during microwaving.
• Never use thin plastic storage bags, brown paper or plastic gro-
cery bags, newspapers, or aluminum foil in the microwave oven.
To summarize, read what the manufacturer designed the containers
for. Look for the numbers. Number 7 is usually what you will find on
the label for microwave use, however, science is always changing, so
it is best to read the label before use.
If you would like a handout which further describes what the num-
bers mean in chemical terminology, call our office at 1-888-825-

After a short break, the band peared on the album. For exam-
broke into a funky five-minute ple, on the first night of the tour,

T
hirty-four years ago, the
Grateful Dead made its
debut at the Broome
County Veterans Memorial are-
na in Binghamton, New York, in
the midst of a scorching tour
which could be viewed as one of
the best in the band’s history. Af-
ter two more stops at the venue,
including its final visit in 1983,
Binghamton was left without
any more appearances by the jam
veterans.
Thankfully, a few decades lat-
er two of the Dead’s founding
members, Bobby Weir and Phil
Lesh, brought the music back to
Binghamton with their new vehi-
cle, Furthur, who delivered one
of the hottest shows of its ongo-
ing tour this past Tuesday.
1977’s “Terrapin Station” album.
Although the crowd relished ev-
ery moment of the under-played
song, it wasn’t quite one of the
openers Deadheads have be-
come used to. Not to disappoint,
the band ripped through a tight
“The Music Never Stopped,” be-
fore breaking into a long-time
crowd favorite, “Crazy Fingers.”
Throughout most of the night,
Weir and Lesh led the band bril-
liantly through runs of classics
like “The Race is On,” and
“Black-Throated Wind,” but the
real enjoyment of the night came
courtesy of the side-players.
During the extended sing-along
“Sugaree,” Chimenti’s piano so-
lo after the second verse proved
to be one of the evening’s high-
jam before opening the second
set with the New York staple
“Truckin,” which featured some
thumping rhythms from drum-
mer Joe Russo, who is the
youngest member of the band,
but could be viewed as the un-
sung hero of the outfit.
Segueing out of the ending
jam, Weir and Kadlecik shared
vocal duties on a pleasing “New
Speedway Boogie,” followed by
the Dead’s psychedelic tribute to
their loyal fans, “Cosmic Char-
lie.”
In a bit of a surprise, the band
offered up a scorching version of
“Something” by The Beatles,
sung brilliantly by Kadlecik.
While it’s not uncommon to hear
Beatles material throughout the
the show kicked off with “Come
Together.” On night two, the sec-
ond song of the set was “Some-
thing,” and so on. Certainly a
daring endeavor, but with the
Dead’s philosophy of using mu-
sic for exploration, it almost
seems a perfect fit.
The last half of the second set
ended beautifully with a tight
multi-song run through classics
like an upbeat “Scarlet Bego-
nias,” “Fire on the Mountain,” a
touching “Standing on the
Moon,” a swift “Going Down the
Road Feeling Bad,” and a spot-
on version of “We Bid You
Goodnight,” accented by Chi-
menti’s tranquil piano. Phil Lesh playing with Furthur

Coming on around 7:45, Fur-
thur – Weir, Lesh, John Kadle-
cik, Jeff Chimenti, Joe Russo,
Sunshine Garcia Becker and Jeff
Pehrson – opened the show with
an unexpected “Passenger” from
lights.
To close out the first set, the
band unleashed a furious version
of “Bertha,” complete with some
fiery guitar work from Kadlecik
which had the crowd – and Weir
Dead world, the way this song
entered the realm is unique. Be-
ginning at tour kick-off in early
March, Furthur performed the
Fab Four’s “Abbey Road” in its
entirety by delivering one track a
to end with a blistering run
through the Dead’s patriotic an-
them “U.S. Blues.”
For a band which has been to-
gether for less than two years,
Furthur has grown into its own
cohesive unit, capable of going
any direction on any night. If
Tuesday’s show is any indication,

anger, denial, and depression.
In her sorrow and pain she
cried out to Jesus, “You were my
friend. Why did you make this
happen?” She was inconsolable
and turned away from Him al-
ways asking why?
Healing from sorrow has no
guidelines or timelines. Emo-
tions vary and now the question
was, “Why me?”
A letter arrived from Ann stat-

Rose sat in the front of the
church close to Jesus hanging on
the cross. It was a familiar scene.
It was one known since early
childhood. In all those years her
heart ached for Mary, His moth-
er, imagining the pain she felt
watching His agony. Looking in-
to the face of Jesus she again
asked, “Why me?” Staring at the
crucified Christ and imagining
the excruciating pain hanging
nailed to those boards she
sobbed ‘Why not me?’”
The realization of His great
sacrifice, the pain, and humili-
ation were heart wrenching. The
obedience to His Father, courage
of person and commitment to
mankind was overwhelming.

1949 – 62 Years Ago
Daylight Saving Time was back in the
news in 1949. Most community leaders
were planning to push the clocks ahead
one hour while others said they would
follow whatever the City of Pittston
decided.
Mayor John Allardyce expected to
meet with city council to discuss the
issue, but felt Pittston would comply.
Pittston Police Officer James
O’Brien arrived at a store on Main
Street responding to a shoplifting call by
the store’s manager. He was surprised to
see that the alleged thieves were three
young girls.
Aged 12, 15 and 16, the girls were
brought before Judge W.A. Valentine.
The 16 year old was remanded to the
women’s section of the prison due to the
fact she had a history of shoplifting.
The other girls were sent home with
their parents, after telling them “the
court is as much interested in the wel-
fare of the children as the parents are
themselves.”
Rutledge Roller Skating Rink in West
Pittston was the site of a highly antici-
pated bout between Billy Dructor of the
Junction Section and Bob Provizzi Cen-
tral PA AAU Champ. Provizzi handed
Dructor his only loss in a previous bout
in Wilkes-Barre.
Dructor and his fans looked forward
to another shot at the AAU champion.
One of Pittston trainer Johnny Attar-
do’s top boxers, 175-pound Dave Rinks
of Exeter was expected to appear on the
card.
1959 – 52 Years Ago
The Pittston YMCA Merchant
League’s Felice Buick Basketball Team,
coached by Jim Gilmartin took the
playoff title as well as straight season
pennant with twelve successive wins.
The team was the first to go undefeat-
ed. Team members were Coach player,
Jim Gilmartin, Arnie Urban, Frank
“Black Jack” Kremitske, Tony Rin-
cavage, Bill Kasulis, Vince Kaporch,
Bernie Lazevnik, Billy Olshefski, and
Bobby Lazevnik.
George Bone, owner of Bone Stadi-
(AARA) back to his venue.
According to the article written in the
Sunday Dispatch, the AARA was born
at the stadium in 1951, when stock cars
replaced the midgets. After 1955, the
sport died and the AARA moved to
other dirt tracks in the region.
The 1959 season opener was expected
to be exciting with local drivers Ed and
Cy Spenser, Jim Knight, Jim Baker,
Johnny Crawford, Wilbur Reese,
Corky Thorek, John Tomschak and
Wild Bill Fey competing. Bone also
planned a three-day thrill show featuring
foreign cars.
In 1959, the announcement was made
that the 109th National Guard Unit
would convert to a Pentomic Division.
The unit would then consist of a head-
quarters, heavy mortar platoon, armor
reconnaissance platoon, radar platoon,
guided missile platoon and counter fire
squad.
Previously the unit was designated a
heavy mortar company. In 1953, Presi-
dent Dwight D Eisenhower, recog-
nizing the country needed a strategy
regarding the threat of nuclear war, di-
rected the army to study the advantage
of smaller more mobile units.
The Army focused on tactical nuclear
warfare and converted several divisions
to a new "pentomic" design. By October
1959, the Army Guard had completed a
massive reorganization of its 27 divi-
sions, and Guardsmen took part in open-
air nuclear tests in Nevada.
The Lincoln Theater, a Dupont Bor-
ough landmark, was sold to the Burgio
Brothers of Wyoming, owners of Cen-
ter Fashion Garment Company.
The theatre’s sale had residents ques-
tioning if it would re-open as a theatre
or be used as a storage building. In the
article appearing in the Sunday Dis-
patch, it was noted that the Martone
family built the building after World
War I operating nickelette shows in
1912.
The family then sold the theatre to
Louis Pilosi of Old Forge in 1926. A
nickelette show was often held on Sun-
day afternoons to the dismay of local
churches and featured amateur acts upon
which the public could vote. Perhaps
making it the first American Idol.
Were things so different in the 1950s?

Track teams battling Winter Wonderland

Patriots, Warriors head into second week of season
By Josh Horton
and Rick Notari
Dispatch Staff

The weather has been more of

a winter wonderland lately, but
that hasn’t stopped the start of
the spring sports season. And
that includes the Pittston Area
and Wyoming Area track and
field teams which sprang into
action last week.
Head coach Jason Mills’
boys’ track team returned many
seniors who had productive ju-
nior seasons. Leading the way
for the Patriots is distance run-
ner Dave McLean who is ex-
pected to be huge part of this
year’s team.
McLean has put in his fair Dave McLean Madelyn Dworak John Poli
share of work in the off-season
and should be a force to be reck-
oned with in the Wyoming Val-
ley Conference Division I race.
“Dave (McLean) has had an
absolutely fantastic pre-sea-
son,” said Mills. “He has been
there everyday working his tail
off.”
Mclean hasn’t been the only
one putting in their work this
offseason. Mills also expects
big things from senior thrower
John Poli.
“John has been another one
that has had a great pre-season,”
Mills said. “He is so focused
when it comes to throwing. He
lives for it.”
Leading the way in the jump-
ing events will be senior Cody
Rydzy and junior Tyler Roman.
Both have previous experience.
Mills also expects big things
from seniors Brandon Hampton
and Matthew Erfman.
“Our number one goal every
year is to achieve a winning re- Wyoming Area track and field standouts, from left to right, seniors Michelle Golden and Kevin Anderson, and juniors Ahmad Bouie and

tricts as possible.”
As for the competition, Mills
feels the league is as competi-
tive as ever. He does feel Tunk-
hannock will field a strong
team this season. They are re-
turning many key pieces from
last year’s championship team.
“Just about anyone can beat
anyone in this league. It is very
beat a team that we lost to. So
you never know.”
On the West Side, Wyoming
Area coach Joe Pizano returns
16 experienced athletes and
wants his team to get better as
the season progresses.
“We are a very young team,
but we are returning a solid
group of District (2) qualifiers,”
and gets better as the season
goes on.”
The Warriors did lose a dis-
trict champ in the sprints as well
as district medalists in other
events, but do return a group led
by sprinters Ahmad Bouie, Jus-
tin Langdon, Larry and Cory
Popovich, and distance runner
Chris Hromek.

Wyoming Area drops matchup with Meyers
Pittston Area loses overtime heartbreaker to Honesdale
By Matt Page
Dispatch Correspondent
In an early season match-up of
two of the top teams in Division
2B of the Wyoming Valley Con-
ference, Wyoming Area and
Meyers both displayed excellent
ball skill and energy but the Lady
Warriors couldn’t keep up with
the speed of Meyers as they fell
3-1 on Thursday at the Gordon
Avenue Fields in South Wilkes-
Barre.
The Lady Mohawks con-
trolled the first half playing most
of it on the WA side of the field
and earning a lead which they
would not relinquish. Meyers got
on the board first, notching their
first goal at the 16:59 mark of the
first half. They found the back of
the net again less than eight min-
utes later stretching the lead to
2-0.
But the Lady Warriors would
not go down without a fight.
Wyoming Area (1-1) broke the
shutout with less than five min-
utes to go in the half after Meyers
committed a foul approximately
40 yards from the goal. But dis-
tance means nothing when you
have the leg of Katie Scalzo.
The senior stepped up and
blasted a bending ball into the
box near the keeper. The Meyers
keeper couldn’t handle it cleanly
and Jenn Bone was there to
knock the loose ball into the back
of the net to cut the lead in half.
The Lady Warriors were able
to put more pressure on the
Meyers defense in the second
half recording numerous offen-
sive attacks and free kicks but
each attempt was foiled by the
quick defensive line. Meyers
sealed the victory with their third
goal at the 15:15 mark of the sec-
ond half bumping the lead to 3-1
where it would stay for the re-
mainder of the match.
Megan Yurek recorded six
saves in the net for Wyoming Ar-
ea.
Meyers held an 8-5 advantage
in corners but the rest of the stats
were very similar. The Lady Mo-
hawks only had one more shot
than Wyoming Area (15-14), and
PAGE 42
had nine shots on goal compared
to WA’s seven.

Tenth Street Soccer Field on
Tuesday afternoon in Wyoming.
Kourtney Schwerdtman put
the Lady Warriors on the board
with an unassisted goal at the
23:38 mark of the first half to
give WA a 1-0 lead.
Katie Scalzo then scored
back-to-back goals to put
Wyoming Area ahead 3-0. Scal-
zo scored unassisted at the 28-
minute mark of the first half, and
at the 27:03 mark of the second
half on an assist from Amanda
Gallagher.
Danielle Stillarti added the fi-
nal Lady Warriors goal with an
unassisted goal at the 36:35
mark of the second half.
Caitlin Vitale kept the Lady
Grenadiers off the board with
seven saves in goal for WA.
PA 2, Honesdale 3 OT

heartbreaking 3-2 overtime loss
to Honesdale on Thursday after-
noon in Wayne County.
After a scoreless first half,
Kaylene Sutkowski have the La-
dy Patriots a seeming insur-
mountable 2-0 lead just six min-
utes into the second half.
Sutkowski scored on an assist
from Danielle Fereck just 1:54
into the second half to give PA a
1-0 lead. The senior then scored
again, this time on an assist from
sophomore Liz Mikitish at the
45:57 mark of the second half.
But from there it was all Ho-
nesdale as the Lady Hornets
scored twice in the last eight
minutes – including the game-
tying goal with just 47 seconds
left in regulation – to tie the game
at 2-2.
Honesdale continued its scor-
ing spree in the overtime, finding
the net just 1:53 into the extra
time.

Diamond teams set to begin league play

By Rick Notari
Dispatch Staff

The four of the six local baseball and

softball teams did their best to get in some
live action this past week as they prepare
for the opening of Wyoming Valley Con-
ference and Lackawanna League play this
week.
Wyoming Area seemed to have the best
success in getting on the diamond as both
the baseball and softball teams were out-
side a few times. The Warriors took on
North Pocono and Wyoming Seminary
while the Lady Warriors got in four games
– all victories – against North Pocono,
Lake-Lehman, Northwest and Crest-
wood.
The Old Forge baseball team took on
Abington Heights this past week in a 4-1
loss, and the Blue Devils softball team
played two games during its annual trek to Old Forge third baseman Russ McGynn awaits a throw as an Abington Heights player steals thrid base.

Both Pittston Area teams were unable
to get any on-field action in, including the
WVC openers against Hazleton for the
Patriots and Lady Patriots which were
postponed without a makeup date set.
The Warriors and Lady Warriors also
had their WVC openers against Tunkhan-
nock postponed until Tuesday.

Pittston Area youth wrestler
Donovan O’Boyle finished
seventh at the Pennsylvania
Junior Wrestling Champion-
ships last weekend at the Mo-
hegan Sun Arena in Wilkes-
Barre Township.
O’Boyle who wrestled in the
10-and-under, 105-pound divi-
sion, opened the event on Fri-
day with two wins. The first-
year participant defeated Luke
Shingle in a 6-2 decision be-
fore beating Zach Becker, 3-2.
He then dropped a 6-4 deci-
sion to eventual runner-up, Ja-
cob Frank, 6-4, to move into
the consolation bracket.
In the consolation bracket,
O’Boyle pinned Parker Har-
vey in 2:21 before losing a tie-
braker, and a 3-2 decision to
Dom DeLuca. He then
bounced back to defeat Hunter
Tremain, 6-0, for the seventh
place medal.
Wyoming Area’s Kendrick
Beyer also participated in the
12-and-under, 115-pound divi-
sion. After finished eighth last
year, Beyer lost his first two
matches of this year’s tourna-
ment.

to local MMA fans as “Mr. Freeze”, but he heated up
quick when he entered the cage last Saturday night at
Cage Fight 7 at the Ice Box in Scranton.
Peters won his cage fight against “Dangerous”
Wayne Jurus of Hazleton by unanimous decision in a
170-pound welterweight bout in front of almost 3,500
fans in his fourth amateur fight.
Jurus landed two heavy punches early and man-
aged to knock down Peters. However, Peters came
back strong and Jurus was in trouble. Peters landed a
series of left and right jabs and eventually put Jurus
into the corner of the cage.
Peters refused to let up from there and crushed Ju-
rus with a series of body shots to ensure he wasn’t
going to get up off the mat. When, Jurus finally es-
caped, Peters responded by lifting Jurus up and slam-
ming him to the mat.
Round two wasn’t much different for the resident
of Hanover Twp. He controlled Jurus the entire round
thanks to an early take down. Peters did all he could to
choke out Jurus, but he was unable to get Jurus to tap.
able to control the bout once I had him on the mat.”
Also in action at Cage Fight 7 was former Wyom-
ing Area wrestler Rich Gates. The 6-foot, 170-pound
190year old was unable to rack up his third win, but
he did deliver some heavy blows.
Phillip Parish of Corning, NY defeated Gates by
unanimous decision.
Parish controlled the majority of the fight with his
heavy striking. However, late in the first round Gates
picked up Parish and sent him to the mat with a board
echoing takedown.
Gates also landed some solid knees to the body of
Parish in the second round. But, the third round was
all Parish and when the final bell rang the judges gave
the unanimous decision to Parish.
Gates dropped to 2-1 as an amateur.
In other bouts, Evan Bates of Dingmans Ferry de-
feated Greg Wolfe of Williamsport at the 2:06 mark
of the first round by way of rear naked choke hold,
and Chase Owens of Freeland defeated Matthew Pe-

Get hooked on trout fishing
There’s one down and one to go.
I am talking about the two open-
ing days of the trout season here in
Pennsylvania. The first opening
day took place yesterday in the
southeast region of the state. Our
Pennsylvania Outdoor Life cam-
eras caught part of the action in
Schuylkill County and that story
will be on tonight at 6:30 on
WNEP. The second or traditional
opening day will take place in two
weeks on Saturday, April
16th.This includes all of the coun-
ties north of Interstate 80.
Luzerne County is part of the
second opening day and many of
the streams and lakes will be
stocked over the next two weeks if
they haven’t already been done.
The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat
Commission plans on stocking
approximately 4 million trout
throughout the state in 744
streams and 122 lakes. That’s a lot
of fish and some of them are real
trophies. In fact, 8,650 trout being
stocked are big enough to be
called trophy trout. I have seen
these for myself and they are huge
and can be easily mounted by a
taxidermist. Remember that any
angler 16 years of age and older
must have a valid Pennsylvania
fishing license fish and a trout/
salmon stamp to fish for trout. It is
not too late to purchase them espe-
cially online. You can buy one and
instantly print it by going to the

mission website atwww.fish-
.state.pa.us.
There are four kinds of trout be-
ing stocked for the season. They
are Rainbows, Brooks, Browns
and Golden trout. I have decided
to give a brief description of these
fish and an illustration of them
from the Pennsylvania Fish and
Boat Commission.
Rainbow trout are silvery-gray
to dark-green on the back and
sides. They have a pinkish or red-
dish lateral stripe, sometimes with
lavender or orange overtones,
from the gill cover running the
length of the fish to the tail. The
caudal fin has rows of small dark
spots, and there are more small
blackish spots sprinkled on the
head and sides, and spotting on the
dorsal and adipose fins. The belly
is whitish. The lower fins are pale-
pink without spots.
Golden rainbows are a deep
golden-yellow in body color, with
pinkish lower fins, pink or red
tones on their cheeks and with the
rainbow’s reddish lateral stripe.
There isn’t any spotting on the
body or fins. The Pennsylvania re-
cord golden rainbow trout is over
11 pounds.
Brown trout are brownish in
overall tone. The back and upper
sides are dark-brown to gray-
brown, with yellow-brown to sil-
very lower sides. Large, dark spots
are outlined with pale halos on the
sides, the back and dorsal fin, with
reddish-orange or yellow spots
scattered on the sides. The fins are
clear, yellow-brown, and un-
marked. The belly is white-yel-

low.
The brook trout is Pennsylva-
nia’s official state fish. The brook
trout’s general body color is dark-
green. Looking closer, its back is
dark olive-green or gray-green,
mottled with dark, squiggly or
wormlike markings from head to
tail. The sides and belly shade
lighter, sometimes with green,
gray or even lavender tones, and
additional irregular marks. The
sides also have scattered red dots,
surrounded by bright-blue halos.
The belly is usually pale yellow-
orange, with a blackish or gray
streak down the middle. The pec-
toral, pelvic and anal fins are pale
to bright-orange with a white
leading edge followed by a black
stripe. There are dark blotches on
the dorsal and caudal fins. The

brook trout’s tail fin is less forked
than that of most trout and salmon.
You can catch as many as you
like but you can only keep five
trout a day and they must be at
least seven inches long. The actual
opening time is 8am on Saturday,
April 16th. Remember to pack a
lunch, some extra clothes and
your fishing gear. You may get
lucky and want to stay all day es-
pecially if you get hooked on trout
fishing.
The Pennsylvania Outdoor Life
Expo
The Pennsylvania Outdoor Life
Expo took place last weekend at
the Lycoming Mall in Pennsdale. I
must say that I was pleasantly sur-
prised with the number of people
who stopped by to say hello from
the Sunday Dispatch reading area.
We talked about everything,
laughed at anything and really en-
joyed meeting all of you. Thou-
sands of people made the trek to
the show and it was quite over-
whelming. Thanks for visiting
with us.

Be sure to watch Pennsylvania
Outdoor Life tonight at 6:30 on

on the opening day of the trout
season from Schuylkill County
and we’ll take you along on a trout
stocking adventure. Have a great
day!

Toole announces for County Council Rome a candidate

After urging by friends and
supporters, Wil Toole made the
decision to seek the Member of
County Council office.
Toole, 67, of Dupont, a veteran
of the United States Coast
Guard, has a strong background
in business and government
management.
Toole is the only candidate to
seek this county office who has
the Professional Municipal
Manager credentials recognized
by the International City/County
Manager’s Association (ICMA).
In September of 1997, Toole
was notified that he had met the
criteria of the ICMA to achieve

high school football field. How-
ever, if he could do it all over
again he would play football all
four years of high school and
would study harder. If given the
chance he would teach gym and

him was definitely math class.

tin’ the World”. After gradua-

ghetti, and her favorite song is
“Just a Dream” by Nelly. Her
most memorable moment in
high school was when she went
to prom in her junior year, while
the most challenging part was

ston Twp. Matt described his

“long” and said if he could do it
all over again he would change

foods are pizza and wings and
his favorite song is “Huntin’ the
World” which is by his favorite
artist, Colt Ford. His best
friends are John Baiera, John
Ameen, and Mike Flannelly.

trade college or go right to work.

schau is most looking forward
to being a father. In one word, he
described high school as “fun”.

time, Justin can be seen playing
football with Anthony Passarel-
la, Antonio Decker, Matt Ches-
niak and Ryan Kochinowski.
His idol is his mother. If he
could teach any class in the
world, McCloe would teach
gym. He says the most challeng-
ing part of school was chemistry
class. After graduation, he plans
to join the United States Marine
Corps. If he could describe high
school in one word, it would be
“wow”.
