need more help for parking, extra porta-potties for the people who attend, and additional volunteer help. Council told them that the local fire police can help with parking cars. This year’s event was the fourth and one of its features was the demonstration put on by Northampton police officer John Mullner and his K-9 dog,“Zorro”. They were at Thursday night’s meeting as well when the check presentation was made. The talent contest had three prize winners, Sadie, a yellow lab with her owner, Lori Smith; Alvin, a golden retriever, and owner Steve Hujsa; and Mickey, a sheltie dog with her owner, Kathy Crayosky. The Paw Prints on the Canal organizers expressed their thanks to the borough and the fire department, Stanglein Vet Clinic, as well as all others who participated in making it a success.

A 2010 Nazareth High School graduate died on Friday, June 22 when the all terrain vehicle he was riding went over an embankment and crushed him in Potter County. State Police at Coudersport said Isaac Irving, 20, of 2325 Old Towne Rd., Upper Nazareth Township was driving the ATV on private property near Lehman Hollow Rd. in Hector Township when he lost control at about 11:30 p.m. and the vehicle landed on top of him. Irving was pronounced dead shortly after midnight by the Potter County deputy coroner. At high school, he was on the honor roll and completed studies in the CIT program. At the time of his death, he was attending Northampton Community College in the automotive technology program. He was employed by STS Tire & Auto Center and also helped at J. Smith Automotive, both in Nazareth. Born April 6, 1992 in New Brunswick, N.J., he was a son of Willie E. and Heather T. (Fortes) Irving of Upper Nazareth Township. In addition to his parents, he is survived by a brother, Elijah J., at home. Services were held last night (Wednesday) in the Schmidt Funeral Home, Nazareth.

The Pa. state House of Representatives on Monday unanimously passed House Bill 2043, legislation offered by state Rep. Marcia Hahn (R-Northampton), which would expand the definition of training history to be taken into account when considering municipal police officer candidates for employment. “I thank my House colleagues for moving this much-needed legislation to the state Senate,” Hahn said. “My bill will prevent a timeconsuming redundancy in training and permit local police officer candidates to have taken into account previous experience at higher levels of employment.” House Bill 2043 would allow Continued on page 13 LANDSCAPE PRODUCTS Various Mulches, Soils and Stones for all your needs!

the Fence GabGab OverOver the Fence by Pete G. Ossip by Pete G. Ossip

After a couple days of tropical heat last week, we’ve had pretty nice, humid-free air since. A couple thunderstorms, though. One last week had fierce winds for a few minutes that knocked branches off trees, so that 512 and Newburg Road were closed with detours for a while till things got cleaned up. It’s probably a typical summer, though, so enjoy the best of it. . . . I hear the Bath Food Bank got a boost from almost out of nowhere. Seems a New York truck driver had a load of flavored seltzer water that was damaged, so he dropped off 198 cases of it in the parking lot of the Lutheran church in town. Marvin Werkheiser and some kids

helped unload them and took the cases into the church’s fellowship hall. So if the senior citizens and needy folks like seltzer water, they have plenty of it now. . . . With the 4th of July coming up real soon, check your supply of American flags. I hear the Bath Lions are selling a couple sizes of flags and had a stand down at the farmers market with Billy Falstich and his wife running it. You might wanta check with him. . . . Also with the 4th, I see there are tents in the area where they’re selling small fireworks, the legal kind. . . . If I recollect correctly, isn’t the 4th of July when they have the kazoo parade over in Nazareth? It was started a few years ago by Bill Brack-

A group from the UCC church had tickets to see the IronPigs game this Wednesday. From what was reported on TV over the weekend, Chase Utley was due to work out with the IronPigs on Tuesday, and then report to the Phillies on Wednesday, so maybe they missed him. The Phillies sure need him, whether he can hit or not. The way it’s going for them, they’ll be in the cellar at the end of the season. They made it to fourth place one day last week, but fell right back down to fifth with a double header loss on Sunday. . . .

Grow Your Small Business - Goinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Hog Wild By CAROL RITTER

Now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen it all! I recently was invited to the Boyertown Fair, an event to trump all other events. The usual stands were selling cotton candy, funnel cake, lemonade and sausage sandwiches. The buzz in the crowd was, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The pig races start at 1pm, are you going to the pig races?â&#x20AC;? My first response was, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m NOT going to a pig race.â&#x20AC;? But, the gang wanted to go so I succumbed. Well, we can learn a lot from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;PIGSâ&#x20AC;?. This is one heck of a small biz. As you walk up to the race you will hear the PIG announcer drawing you in to the heart of the festivities. Every PIG has a nickname (Lindsey LoHAM) and the race is about to begin.

12:00pm or 12:00pm-1:00pm (eight participants or parties maximum per session). Rain barrels are great water saving devices and ideal for gardens. The barrel sits underneath a downspout and collects water from rooftops each time it rains. The collected rain water can then be used to water lawn and garden plants. This helps conserve groundwater, utilizes high quality water for plants and decreases water bills. And the rain barrels can be painted with paints that adhere to plastic. The cost of the workshop is $35, which includes a plastic 55-gallon drum and all the necessary parts and assistance to build a rain barrel. Similar rain barrels cost up to $100 at home and garden centers. Registration is required. For more information or to register, contact Erin Frederick at efrederick@watershedcoalitionlv.org

6 THE HOME NEWS June 28-July 4, 2012

By Pete Fritchie

FOOTBALL✷ ✷ ✷ The news that more and more schools--even to grammar schools and below, are now limiting games and practice for their young players-who can suffer head injuries which sometimes last years-is good and overdue news. Thousands of former NFL players are now joining in an

effort to receive aid for concussions and other head ailments suffered while playing. Both at the high school and college level authorities are also acting to prevent concussions. This is years overdue. In recent years players who have suffered lifetime and serious injuries have sometimes committed suicide. But only now is it recognized that even grammar school and pre-grammar school football can also cause serious or even permanent head injuries. As this column in the past has recommended, all head-to-head tackling should be banned. Tackling should be at the shoulder level or below.

Bath Legion’s record at 11 and 2 so far in league As of Sunday, the Bath Legion baseball team’s seasonal record in the Northampton County Legion League stood at 11 wins and two losses. Their latest games, as of this writing, were a win vs. Wilson, 9-8; another win over Wind Gap, 4-3. but a 3-2 loss to East Stroudsburg. Bath tallied three runs in the top of the 7th inning, and kept a Wilson rally in the bottom of the inning to four runs, as they won a close one, getting only eight hits while Wilson had 14. Ryan Brong blasted a three-run homer for Bath to highlight the locals’ effort. Wilson committed four errors, which didn’t help them. In the game with Wind Gap, Bath got the winning run in the final 7th inning on an error, with Jake Tone scoring it. He went 2-for-3 with a double

for Bath, while Bebenek and Derkits also doubled for Bath. East Stroudsburg won 3-2 over Bath as Brandon Thomas hit a two-run single in the bottom of the 7th inning. Ryan Santino was 2 for 2 and Brong tripled for Bath in that game. Elsewhere in the league, Nazareth tripped Easton, 4-3, and clipped Wilson, 10-5. A fielding error by Easton in the top of the 9th inning gave Nazareth its winning run after there were two outs. In the game with Wilson, Tony Gaetaniello was the hitting hero for Nazareth as he went 3-for-3 with a double and drove in four of the runs.

So It Seems

Many motorists appear willing to meet the other cars more than halfway.

With schools on summer recess, Pennsylvania Game Commission Executive Director Carl G. Roe is reminding all first-time license buyers to make plans to attend a Hunter-Trapper Education (HTE) course now. Also, the 2012-13 licenses went on sale on June 11, and the antlerless deer license process begins on July 9. To register for a course in your area, visit the Game Commission’s website (www. pgc.state.pa.us), and click on the “Hunter Education Classes” icon in the center of the homepage. From here, you can elect to take either the basic “Hunter-Trapper Education” course, which is a 1012 hour course held on two or more days; or the “HunterTrapper Education Independent Study” course, which is a home-study course followed by a one-day, two-hour classroom review and test. Game Commission HunterTrapper Education Division Chief Keith A. Snyder noted that scheduling the agency’s annual slate of Hunter-Trapper Education classes is always an ongoing operation, based on the availability of instructors and facilities, and the agency’s ability to meet the growing demand for more classes in some counties. “If you don’t see a class being offered in your area, please continue to check the website as more classes are added to the Class Calendar,” Snyder said. “Please know, though, that some areas have a limited number of classes

that may be held at times that are inconvenient to you.” There is no fee for the basic HTE course. Pre-registration is required and online registration is available for all courses through the Class Calendar. Taught by dedicated teams of trained volunteer instructors, the basic HTE class lasts at least 10 hours over two or more days, and participants must attend all instruction before taking a test at the end of the course. Youngsters must be at least 11 years old to receive HTE certification. Successful completion of a basic Pennsylvania HTE class, or another state’s equivalent course, is required by state law to obtain a first-time hunting or furtaker license, regardless of age. Registrations also are being accepted for the independent study version of the basic HTE program, which also is available for those 11 years of age or older. A fee of $1.59 may apply if applicants order a printed copy of the study manual, or they can review the course materials online free of charge, and then attend the one-day, two-hour classroom review and test. HTE classes are taught loccally at East Bath Rod & Gun Club, Keystone Rod & Gun Club, Point Phillips Rod & Gun Club, Blue Mountain Fish & Game, Blue Ridge Rod & Gun and other clubs. If you are a member and know of a youngster who may want to go hunting, see that he or she is enrolled for a HTE class as

BATH AREA BATH BORO – EAST ALLEN TWSP. – MOORE TWSP. – CHAPMAN BORO Two Bath Lions earn 25-year chevron pins On a night when the speaker’s topic was how to improve their club, two members of the Bath Lions received 25year chevron pins. They were presented by membership chairman Bill Halbfoerster to incoming Lions president Walter Hafner and Donald L. Halbfoerster. Both were commended for their years of service in a letter from the international president. Speaking at the dinner meeting in the fellowship hall of St. John’s Lutheran Church last Wednesday was district membership development chairperson Karen Brady. Fresh off of seeing 10 new members inducted by the Wilson Boro Lions Club the night before, Lion Brady said that without members, a club

can do nothing, but they can do much for their community as their membership grows. She asked the Lions to look at their club and see if the members are comfortable, excited and have a positive attitude. She said the agenda at each meeting should be interesting and relevant. To retain members, she said, they need to avoid cliques, keep them active and involved. She advised scrambling seating arrangements, changing committee jobs among the members, talk about service activities, and welcome everyone. “We joined the club to help others,” she pointed out, “and work for the common good.” The membership team of three people will set goals

and develop a list of prospective members, boosting strengths and eliminating weaknesses. Other Notes The club has volunteers helping with the gazebo project at Keystone Park. On Aug. 15-18, the Lions will run Bingo at the Muhlenberg Hospital festival. There will be no meeting on the first Wednesday because it is the 4th of July. But the club will have a clambake meeting on Wed., July 18 at 6:30 p.m. at the home of Lion Marvin Werkheiser. Members, guests and spouses will attend. Also this summer, the Bath Lions will go to Slatington for a steak fry the first Tuesday in August and visit the West Penn Twsp. Lions in Schuylkill County on the first Wednesday in September. If interested in joining the Bath Lions, men and women may call chairman Bill Halbfoerster at 610-428-1965.

Know The Weather

Do we ever experience cold fronts in July? What is the maximum temperature of a cold front? Cold fronts occur in every month of the year. We might have more of them pass over us in August than in January. What misleads many about cold fronts is the very name itself. In the summer a cold front might contain (behind the leading edge) air 72 degrees, or even 80 degrees. A cold front is so named because of its relative temperature considering the time of year and prevailing weather conditions. In August, as an example, if the temperature has been reaching 90 degrees or more for several days and a mass of air moves in and over, with temperatures of 80 degrees, then weather- men will call it a cold front.

Weekend Forecast - Northampton County

The Eastern PA Weather Authority is calling for mostly sunny skies and a high of 86 today. Summer weather is expected to continue Friday and Saturday with both days reaching 92 degrees and having a 30% chance for afternoon thunderstorms. It is expected to be mostly sunny on Sunday with a high of 90. The extended forecast is calling for partly cloudy and 87 on Monday.

Siegfried D.A.R.E. students Given plaques at Council

By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News Three of the winners in the recent D.A.R.E. program held at Col. John Siegfried Elementary School were present at a meeting of Northampton Borough Council on Thursday night. Introduced by their instructor, Chief of Police Ronald Morey, were Lilly Altomare, who read her winning essay; Sarah Sandoval and Zachary Vilkauskas. Lilly told about how the program will help her avoid drugs and alcohol as she grows up, noting the bad side effects from them. Sarah said she feels better about herself as a result of the program. Councilman Anthony Lopsonzski, Sr. asked the trio several questions and noted that their parents are not their enemy and they should go to them with questions. Chief Morey said the money to put on the drug and alcohol resistance education program comes from the borough and the

local VFW post. Plaques were donated by Frantz Trophies. Also part of the meeting was a check presentation by Paw Prints on the Canal. (See other story). Agreement Reached Borough manager Gene Zarayko announced that Allen Township and the Borough have finally reached an agreement over sewer fees. Solicitor William McCarthy will put the agreement together as it was prepared by Northampton. The issue has been a matter of litigation over the past several months. Bridge Work Zarayko has been in contact with various engineering firms who will be bidding on the proj-

ect to replace the bridge linking Northampton with Cementon (Whitehall Township) on Rt. 329. Bids will be sought in Oct. 2014 and construction won’t end until April 2016. Lopsonzski Sr. said that with this two-year project, a change needs to be made on left hand turns off 21st Street. Other Matters Gospel Chapel was given permission to use Canal Street Park for an event on July 7 from 2 to 8 p.m., with all fees waived. Northampton Liederkranz will be able to use the borough band trailer on Saturday, Aug. 18 from 1 to 9 p.m. as the organization marks its 100th anniversary. Siegfried Ave. from 8th to 9th Streets will be closed to celebrate the event. Because of the higher costs to operate the sewage treatment plant, Council voted to increase user fees by 15%, going from 80% to 95% of the water billing rate. The increase will take effect with the last quarter this year. Council accepted the resignation of Frank Szep as a member of the zoning hearing board for personal reasons. Applications are being taken to fill the vacancy. Committee Reports Councilman Robert Coleman for administration and finance said the borough has received the second of three refunds from the health insurance cooperative amounting to $4,572. An earlier one was for $4,715. He also noted: delinquent garbage collection bills have been sent to a magistrate for collection and/or judgment. . . . 19 banners have been ordered from local businesses, and the offer has been extended to June 30. . . . .Donations for the Atlas Cement Museum came from Hercules Cement, $750, and Keystone Ce-

NAZARETH BORO – LOWER NAZARETH TP. – UPPER NAZARETH TP. – BUSHKILL TP.

Kazoo parade, patriotic Program on July 4th The Nazareth Area Chamber of Commerce will host the annual kazoo parade and patriotic program that has become a Nazareth tradition on Wednesday, July 4th. Those wishing to participate in the parade will start at the Nazareth High School at 9:30a.m. Walkers will be separated into divisions, all assigned different patriotic songs to play on the kazoos, which have been donated by Lafayette Ambassador Bank. The parade route will be as follows: from the high school turn up South Liberty Street and make a right onto Belvidere Street. Follow until Main Street and make a right up to the circle, go half way around and turn onto West Center Street and end at council

chambers. Once at council chambers there will be a greeting from local elected officials. The grand marshal of the parade this year, back by popular demand is “Miss G” known as the "Kazoo Lady of Woodstock". Abbe "Miss G" Graber has been singing the blues and playing a blues style wooden kazoo for over 30 yrs. Her company Woodstock Wooden Kazoo opened on the 40th anniversary of the original music festival in 1969 and each kazoo is handcrafted and resembles the beauty of the surrounding mountains. Miss G's kazoos are owned and loved by many famous musicians and singers. The list includes such notables as

Levon Helm, John Sebastian, Wavy Gravy, Maria Muldaur, Jim Kweskin, Leon Russell, Pete Seeger, Aaron Neville, Cindy Cashdollar and many more. Patriotic entertainment will be performed by The Dream Kids and Lehigh Valley Idol. There will also be a display of Miss G’s wooden kazoos available for purchase. For additional information please call the chamber office at: 610-759-9188. www.nazarethchamber.com Info on the kazoos, www. wo o d s t o ck wo o d e n k a z o o . com.

Walmart Foundation. “PRESS” stands for Persistence, Retention, and Student Success. The announcement was made on Monday, June 25 in Reston, Virginia. The grant will enable NCC to involve more full- and part-time faculty in efforts to improve student performance in math and English courses important to students’ overall success in college. NCC was selected because of its record as a “Leader College” in “Achieving the Dream,” a national nonprofit organization committed to educational reform. It shows that it is possible for community colleges to raise persistence and graduation rates, close achievement gaps, and improve lives. Fifty “Leader Colleges” were eligible to apply for the PRESS for Completion grants. The 15 who were selected “have met high standards of practice and performance” says Rachel Singer, Vice President of Achieving the Dream, Inc. NCC has agreed to serve as a peer coach and to share results of its work with the other 175+ colleges in the Achieving the Dream National Reform Network. The project director will be Dr. Elizabeth Bugaighis, of Bethlehem, dean of education and academic success at Northampton. She will be assisted by Dr. Precie Schroyer, assistant professor of English, and Charlie Mathers, an associate professor of mathematics. Both Schroyer and Mathers teach at NCC’s Monroe Campus. The Walmart Foundation is committed to helping people live better around the globe. In May of 2010, Walmart and its Foundation made a five-year pledge of $2 billion to fight hunger in the United States.

My Brother’s Hand One day, a few weeks ago, when I had made other plans, my brother, Alan, called and asked if I had the time to spend the day with him. Saying “no” was not an option. So, I drove the hour to his house. Alan is afflicted by PLS - primary lateral sclerosis – a rare neuromuscular disease that, over just a couple of years time, has severely crippled his left side, slurred his speech, and made all routine functions difficult. There is no cure. I admire my “lil bro.” About 50 years ago, when he was 6-years-old, we were sleeping over at our grandparents house – a much anticipated treat. That night, after he had fallen asleep, I awoke to find his small hand just inches from my face. Being a gentle big brother I was just ready to “throw” his hand back on his side of the bed when I looked closer at that hand. As I looked I began to think about what that hand would do over the course of a lifetime. As I imagined the possibilities I felt a deep connection to the little blond haired boy to which it was attached. Sure, from time to time he was annoying, stubborn, whiney, and a “pain” to have around – but, all in all, he was my brother. I couldn’t form the concept then, but now I know what I felt was brotherly love for him---and the passage of time has not taken that away. Now that hand is crippled and of little use to Alan; even so he continues to care for his family, attend church regularly, go to work as an accountant on good days, and is looking forward to a construction project that will make his home handicapped accessible. My parents once told me I was their hard-headed, stubborn child…somehow I believe Alan can now claim that title—and I’m glad to surrender it to him. “Am I my brother’s keeper?”(Gen. 4:9) This question was asked by Cain as he tried to deflect God’s inquiry about Abel. It is a question many had had to wrestle with ever since. To what degree am I responsible for my “brother?” For that matter, just who is my “brother?” my “sister?” Our society, which places such importance on individualism, sometimes loses the sense of community where people care for one another. As one in the body of Christ with all Christians—should be not set an example of caring for one another that can bring our divided world together? When a “brother” or “sister” is in need, what is your response to the question: “Am I my brother’s or sister’s keeper?” Amen. be held July 22 thru 27 from 6:15 to 8:30 pm.
