Remembering September 11

In observance of Patriots Day, Wednesday, Sept. 11, members of Boy Scout Troops 35 and 50 unfurled an American flag at Moore Elementary School and raised it to half staff in memory of the thousands of people who died in terrorist attacks with civilian airliners in New York City, Washington, D.C., and Shanksville, Pa. on the morning of Sept. 11, 2001. Cub Scouts who are students at the school stood and saluted during the brief flag-raising ceremony.

The Allen Township Board of Supervisors heard of changes made to the draft of a house-numbering ordinance on Thursday. It will be re-advertised for later adoption.

Township Manager Ilene Eckhart said the numbers will need to be four inches high on signs at residences.

The board differed on color of the numbers, and decided on green. The signs will need to be posted on mailboxes or on buildings, so long as they are visible from the roadway by potential rescuers in an emergency.

Property owners or tenants will have to post the numbers within six months of passage of the ordinance. Chairman Paul Balliet suggested giving them a year, but the consensus was six months.

A brochure will be mailed out to residents to answer frequently asked questions.

Other Matters A public hearing was held

on the Subdivision & Land Development Ordinance amendment for open space and community facilities. The amendment had been approved by the Planning Commission. Larry Oberly questioned why the ordinance, and engineer Brien Kocher said it specifies what kinds of grasses can be planted. No

other questions were asked.

The stenographer was late in arriving from Berks County when she was lost in trying to find the municipal building.

The hearing lasted less than five minutes.

The board also approved the 2014 minimum municiContinued on page 9

Asteak reports on group Home in Lower Nazareth

By BILL HALBFOERSTER The Home News

At their monthly meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 11, Solicitor Gary Asteak discussed his findings on group homes, and in particular the one at 4505 Stephanie Drive in the township. He advised keeping an eye on parking there and compliance with codes.

“You can’t treat them differently than any other,” he told the board. The home is

licensed by the Pa. Dept. of Public Welfare.

However, a resident voiced more complaints about the residents and staff. He said access to his driveway has been a problem and he has called Colonial Regional Police several times.

Letters from our Readers 1863 Report Lists 14 Schools In Moore Township To the Editor: With reference to The Home News of Sept. 12 – 18 front page article, “Moore Twsp. Okays Ordinance Creating Historical Commission.”

History can be very important sometimes, as in the old adage…if you don’t know history; you’re destined to repeat it.

History can be interesting and fun to know. Knowing local history can help us feel more attuned, or at home in our community.

We should strive to be accurate with even the simple, fun-to-know facts or credibility can be lost in important historical items.

It’s no big deal, but a funto-know fact, may have been reported incorrectly: that the Edelman School was one of 12 one-room schools in Moore

Township. I think it should be one of 14 according to an 1863 communication.

The report was submitted to his Excellency, Andrew G. Curtin, Governer of Pennsylvania: Sir: - In compliance with the act of assembly, I have the honor herewith to present to you, the thirtieth annual report of the Superintendent of Common Schools, for the school year ending June 1, 1863.

Very Respectfully, Your Obedient Servant C.R. Coburn Superintendent Common Schools

Some of the interesting information from the Northampton County Tabular Statement out of this 287page report follows…

Moore Township: Schools – 14.

Avg. No. of Months Taught 4 Teachers 14 males Avg. Salary per mo. $18 No. of Scholars 484 males, 416 females No. Learning German 134 Avg. No. Attending School 443

The report gives much more detail, let me end with one more tidbit; it seems that only one high school was in Northampton County in 1863.

Guess where?!

Very Respectfully, Edwin Frank Keller Old Capella Store (Ed. Note: According to a page in the 1987 Bath anniversary book, only 12 one-room schools were listed for Moore Township.)

Back to School Safety Tips

By State Rep. Joe Emrick 137th Legislative District

I hope the 2013-14 school year is off to a good start for everyone, whether you are a student, a parent of a student or a school district employee.

The ringing of the school bell is also a reminder of Pennsylvania traffic safety laws that come back into play with the return of buses to the roads.

Drivers must be responsible about sharing the road with school buses. Here are a few reminders about the law concerning school buses: •When meeting or overtaking a stopped school bus with red signal lights flashing and a “stop” arm extended, drivers MUST STOP. •When approaching an intersection where a school bus is stopped with red signal lights and “stop” arm extended, drivers MUST STOP. •Be sure to stop at least 10 feet from the school bus, and watch children exiting the bus. Do not move until they have reached a place of safety.

•Drivers do not have to stop on a highway with clearly defined dividing sections or physical barriers providing separate roadways when the school bus is on the opposite side of the road.

If the law is violated, motorists will receive a 60-day driver license suspension, five points on a driving record and a $250 fine.

Minding these traffic laws will make for a safer, happier and healthier school year for everyone concerned. For more information on school bus safety, please go online and visit www.justdrivepa. com.

Questions about this or any other legislative issue should be directed to my Mt. Bethel office at (570) 897-0401 or my Nazareth office at (610) 7465090.

www.HomeNewsPA.com are important and I believe that Glenn Geissinger embodies these qualifications…

Glenn not only has the formal education, but the military service, accounting and business experience, and a strong history of community service that we need on Northampton County Council. His common sense, work ethic, and accountability are qualities that will be an asset to NorthamptonCounty.”

“For all these reasons, I am endorsing Glenn Geissinger for Northampton County Council. Please join me in supporting Glenn and working toward his election on November 5th.”

Glenn Geissinger is currently seeking one of the five at-large seats on Northampton County Council.

Cong. Dent Endorses Geissinger

At a fundraising event held at the historic Pomfret Club in Easton on September 10, Congressman Charlie Dent officially endorsed Glenn Geissinger for Northampton County Council. Due to the current situation in Syria, Congressman Dent was unable to personally attend, but the endorsement was delivered and read to the assembled crowd by Sam Chen from Congressman Dent’s office.

To quote a portion of the letter, Congressman Dent said: “When it is time to decide who to vote for, there are aspects of a candidate’s qualifications and experience that

Gab Over the Fence

by Pete G. Ossip Sunday is the first day of fall. We’ve had a bit of it ahead of time with the clear and cool weather. For the most part, it’s been a pretty nice summer and early fall.

Now comes leaf-raking time!

Enjoy them while they’re on the trees. When they turn we’ll see their red, gold, and brown colors. . . . The volunteers who help at the Bath Area Food Bank, and the people who come there for food for their families, had an extra treat this past Tuesday. Anna Kish sang a song and then yodeled. Everybody loved her singing. I didn’t know it, but Anna used to sing on a local radio station. As one person remarked, “What talent we have here, and we don’t know about it” . . . .By the way, the food bank as always is in need of non-perishable food and money to buy more, so see or call Margie Rehrig or Jeannie Judd-Wagner about giving some. . . .I gotta say, that ruckus about the name Konkrete Kids being racist or coming from the KKK was much ado about nothing. Ed Pany can tell you, it was started to honor the folks who came over from Europe and who worked so hard in our cement plants, and the K’s are just something that comes out of Germany. People are so touchy these days, and I think it’s the Internet that just spreads a lotta malarkey. Three thousand so-called “hits.” Musta come from other places, not that much around here. You don’t find Ye Olde Editor getting uptight about what some people did a few years ago, trying to change the names of the Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins and Atlanta Braves with their red tomahawks. His grandmother on his mom’s side was an Indian on a New York reservation, and he’s just fine with that. Let’s look on the positive side of life, not the negatives all the time. . . . I see Nazareth and Northampton both lost their football games, and know how Chip Kelly and his Eagles felt when they lost on

Sunday on a 7-second field goal. . . . The cool weather was nice for Northampton’s street fair, the apple festival in Chapman Quarries, the cyclecar ride here in town Saturday, and the Moore Township Lions car show on Sunday.

Now the Lutheran church is hoping for the same with their festival this weekend, and the same for the BBCP on Saturday, the 5th of October, when Bath Community Day is held. . . . Property where there once was a beauty shop run by “Sooks” Silfies’ wife on Chestnut Street got a facelifting last week. Looks good! Now I’m waiting for those new sidewalks. . . . Still some grass to mow. Take care, gang.

Banned Books Event Set For Sept. 26

The graphic novel and memoir, ‘Persepolis’ by Marjane Satrapi will come to life in the form of an innovative dance interpretation on September 26 at Muhlenberg’s Trexler Library, sponsored by Judith’s Reading Room, the winner of a $1,000 grant from the American Library Association.

Persepolis, the story about a young girl who comes of age during the Iranian Revolution

will be performed by ‘Six Meters,’ an improvisational dance group under the direction of Susan Creitz. The book was selected to highlight how books are routinely challenged and banned in America. Dozens of other banned books will be highlighted including Nickel and Dimed, The Chocolate War, Of Mice and Men, and Julie of the Wolves --all of which have been banned or challenged in Pennsylvania.

The event, which is free and open to the public, will be held on Thursday, September 26 at the Trexler Library at Muhlenberg College at both 12:30 p.m. and 7 p.m.

“In the graphic novel, Persepolis, the author’s illustrations are dances in themselves; each a poignant part of her life which we all can feel and learn from. What is the point in banning such a book?,” says Creitz, director of ‘Six Meters.’

Muhlenberg Librarian, Kelly Cannon added, “Who would believe book banning happens in a democratic society such as ours? And yet

September 19-25, 2013 3

it does! In 2012, more than 450 instances of book challenging or banning occurred in the U.S. We want to honor BBW in a unique way through the movement and speech of modern dance to show, not just tell, how books are routinely challenged and banned, even in a supposedly open society.”

Judith’s Reading Room, established in the memory

of Judith Krug, founder of Banned Books Week 31 years ago, was awarded one of seven $1,000 grants by the American Library Association’s Freedom to Read Foundation.

The organization provides books to those that do not have access to them. Since 2010, it has established 57 libraries in 9 countries and 6 states. Eighteen libraries are in the Lehigh Valley.

Natural Perspectives For the Health-Minded Individual DR. GLENN CLEARIE DC www.drclearie.com

Weight Loss

Your belly is bloated. Pants are tighter than ever and you feel lousy! Your weight keeps going up and your energy keeps going down. Caffeine is a daily ritual and so are the bagels, bread, and fast food.

Add to the list the growing number of prescription medicine you are taking and it is no wonder why you are becoming depressed! I have seen this scenario time and time again. It doesn’t need to be this way!

I can say this after treating thousands of patients over the last sixteen some years, excessive weight generally and obesity specifically is no longer just a problem it is an epidemic! As a side effect is chronic disease and disorder.

Back pain, neck pain, knee problems, headaches are common. Diabetes, heart disease, strokes, stomach, and gastrointestinal problems are just the start of the common problems associated with being overweight. So is the lack of intimacy among couples, the depression, anxiety, and self-deprecation that follows

you daily. Again, it doesn’t need to be this way!

Imagine how you would FEEL being TEN, TWENTY, THIRTY pounds or more lighter than you currently are. Would you be happier?

Absolutely! Would you sleep better? Yes. Would you have more energy? Of course. Your old clothes would be ‘new again’.You would be smiling a lot more than you already do, and dare I say, at some point your doctor would start taking you off the laundry list of medications you are taking.

What’s more expensive sickness or health? They both have to be paid for and I am sure you would rather pay for health than sickness. Fact is, if you don’t pay for health, by default, you will need to pay for sickness. Buying broccoli is a better way to allocate resources than to buy metformin! Think about it, why in the world are you overweight when you already understand how your life is being depleted by it? Sure, we have our own reasons why we are the way we are. Some say it is the

stress of their jobs, spouse, kids, etc., while others blame their genetic code. Still others just say they are happy. Don’t lie to yourself. I know as these ‘happy people’ confide in me and have significant emotional breakdowns due to their frustration and depression. More than half of the problems that you experience will magically go away when you are thirty pounds lighter, happier, healthier and clear minded! This is the goal you need to focus on and strive for once and for all!

Is it always easy? Let me ask you if being overweight and sick is easy? Is it? No, it is harder and gets harder everyday doesn’t it. In comparison losing weight, getting healthy, and smiling a whole lot more is the easiest thing you could do! Now here is the part where you need to take the first step towards losing weight. But what is the first step and what’s the step after that? You need help. This is what I have been doing for sixteen years and counting.

My advice is to call my office TODAY and schedule a time to discuss your specific concerns. I do have free weight loss meetings which I encourage you to attend. When I do have them there is usually a full house, so please don’t wait. Our next Secrets To Weight Loss class is soon so again, call today and secure your seat.

Sharks, Jellyfish and Wind Oh MY!

By CAROL RITTER

“Find a Way,” said Diana Nyad all year long when her team would tell her reasons why she couldn’t swim from Cuba to Florida. That 64 year old woman is now the first woman to swim in shark and jellyfish infested waters for over 50 hours. She battled the elements, the sharks, the jelly fish and swallowing all that salt water, but she did it. This was her 5th attempt. Prior to this accomplishment, the other trips included excruciating stings, an asthma attack, sun, wind and waves. She not only did it, she did it without a shark cage. She repeated to herself that she was pushing Cuba away and pushing towards Florida, she sang her favorite nursery rhymes and lullabies to relax her.

The real question is WHY? Why does someone want to break a swimming record and, even more, what is inside of her at 64 years old that makes her still want to realize her dream?

What are the qualities she possesses that are similar to a successful business?

Risk Taker - Visionary Dreamer - Tenacity - Commitment and Talent Many of us would say she’s crazy. But hasn’t someone in your life said you were

crazy when you decided to turn your dream into a reality. Risk taking is the hardest for most to take on, the fear of failure is powerful and the fear of lost revenue is even more powerful. If you have a great idea, do your homework, build your “TRIBE” and wake up every morning working towards your goal, you will do it. The sharks and jellyfish will swarm around you, the wind will knock you over, the salt water won’t taste good and the waves may come crushing down on you but after your 4th try, the 5th one will be the charm.

Diana, the first woman to swim around Manhattan and winning many marathons, is now the first woman to swim 49 hours from Cuba to Florida. As she recovers from the swim she wants the world to know, “you can dream at any age” and so can you and no matter what obstacles you face FIND A WAY to GROW UR BIZ!

Comment On Sports

By Pete Fritchie

FOOTBALL✷ ✷ ✷ The 2013 college football season is off to an interesting start. The first top-level game of the season, Georgia versus South Carolina, both in the top ten rated teams, was exciting, South Carolina, at home, eking out a win.

What was not encouraging was the realization that the new rules designed to lower

the number of injuries are not enough to solve the problem.

Players are still diving into their opponents head-first, running as fast as they can certain to produce injuries.

Some are even diving into an opponent’s head.

They physical part of the game, which is like fighting, for the ball or among players protecting or attacking the ball carrier, often includes eight to ten players. The number of injured players in almost every game is up to twenty, or more! And some of these are permanent injuries.

Physical combat, as in boxing and wrestling, is exciting, sells tickets.

Konkrete Kids and Blue Eagles fall big

Northampton High School’s Konkrete Kids suffered big on Friday, losing 48 to 7 at the hands of Parkland. The only score for the black and orange was when quarterback Nick Cook ran 17 yards for a touchdown. He was also 11 of 13 in passing.

Northampton’s record is now 0-3 and 0-2 Nazareth’s Blue Eagles scored more, but still came out on the losing end as they played Liberty High of Beth-

lehem, 35-18.

In the first quarter, quarterback Spencer King threw a pass to Jordan Gray that resulted in a TD after 41 yards, but the run for extra points failed.

Liberty scored in every quarter, but Nazareth didn’t get on the boards again until the 3rd quarter when Gray ran four yards, and again a run didn’t get anything extra.

Gray ran it in for a TD in the 4th, but a pass didn’t make it.

Three tied for first place In darts, including Bathites It’s early, but it’s also nice that two Bath teams are tied for first place in the Suburban Inter-Church Dart Baseball League. Both won a pair of games on Monday night.

Emmanuel EC of Bethlehem put all its eggs in one basket, winning 13-3, but Christ UCC of Bath rallied to beat them, 3-1 and 8-2. Top hitters for Bath were Mark Fujita and Garry Hunsicker, both 6 for 12, while George Gasper went 5 for 10 with a 2-run homer.

Emmanuel: Jovi Rivera, 7 for 13; Ken Kobler, 5 for 11 with a homer; Jorge Rivera, 5 for 13 with a home run; D. Mike, 5 for 13; Joey Hoffert, two homers; and Jeff Fritz, one round tripper.

Bath Lutheran played at Salem UCC in Moorestown and lost 9-8 in 11 innings before winning 5-4 and 2-0. Best of the Bathites were Matt Creyer, 8 for 15; Doug Moser, 6 for 13; Dellie Iasiello, 4 for 9; and Bob Meixsell, Bob Flyte and Candi Miller, all with a solo homer. Salem: Jack Troxell, 6 for 12 with a home run; Bill Rinker, 4 for 11; Larry Bush, 4 for 12; Eric Thomas, a homer.

St. Stephen’s Lutheran of Bethlehem lost 6-2 and 7-3 before winning 8-5 at St. Paul’s UCC in Northampton. The winners had Jennifer Erkinger, 7 for 10; Paul Slimmon, 6 for 12, and Jason Gross, 5 for 12. The Bethlehem team had Ed Wychuck and Travis Beahm, both 6 for 13, and Al Antry, 4 for 12.

Dryland-Trinity of Hecktown beat visiting Ebenezer Bible Fellowship 5-1 and 7-3, sandwiched around a 4-3 Bethlehem win. Hecktown: Al Gilbert, 7 for 12; Shaun Sigley, 6 for 12; Jim Goldman

and Hermie Crush, each with a home run. Bethlehem: Ray Moretz, 5 for 12; LeRoy Wilcox, 5 for 13; Carol Voortman, two homers.

Salem Lutheran, Bethlehem, won 4-3, lost 7-6, and won 4-3 over visiting Farmersville. Salem: Scott Hoffert, 8 for 14; Kyle Taylor, 7 for 13; Bryan Frankenfield, 7 for 14; Bill Hoke, Sr., a homer. Farmersville: Ron Barron, 6 for 13; Keith Campbell, 6 for 14; Kyle Campbell, 5 for 14.

Trinity Lutheran of Bangor lost 3-1, then rallied to beat Messiah Lutheran in Bethlehem, 2-1 and 3-2. Trinity: Maybel Smith, 3 for 9 with a 2-run homer; Sandy Wambold, 3 for 12; Tristen Burd, a homer. Messiah: Norman Schoenberger, 4 for 11; Andy Mickelson, 3 for 9, and Steve Harper, a homer.

Outdoors Local Streams Proposed to Become Class “A”

Lehigh County WCO Lee Creyer has informed Northampton County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs delegate Lee Marsh that certain members of the Pa. Fish & Boat Commission want to stop stocking at least four local streams with trout.

They believe that because the Monocacy, Bushkill and Martins Creeks in Northampton County and the Little Lehigh in Lehigh County have such pure waters they should become Class “A”.

That would be a blow to the hundreds, perhaps thousands, of anglers (licensed and unlicensed) who fish these streams and keep the trout.

Those commissioners who are members of Trout Un-

limited are such purists that they want the trout that are swimming in those creeks to be caught and released under fly-fishing regulations.

Those four streams that are listed are indeed very popular among all ages of anglers.

Saucon Creek in the Hellertown area is already Class “A” and that has upset both Mike Topping and John Berry of the County Federation who are looking out for the interests of kids who want to fish there, but can’t.

If you’re an angler and want to see the creeks mentioned stay as they are, on the stocking list, then contact your Legislators. Marsh has said he will talk to Rep. Marcia Hahn about the problem. She’s a member of the House Fish & Game Committee. Marsh said Glade Squires, Southeast Region commissioner, is against the proposal.

It will be brought up at the county meeting next Monday, and perhaps at the Pa. Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs’ convention at Camp Hill this weekend.

HomeHealth&Happiness Tips to keep your Children Safer

F

Family Features

illed with mesmerizing trinkets and gadgets — your home is a new and exciting world for your small child to explore. But this new world can introduce serious and sometimes surprising safety issues that many parents do not realize are risks.

Hidden concerns in common household devices

As your children happily toddle around your home, they may come in contact with unknown safety issues scattered throughout. One issue you may not have considered

is coin lithium batteries, about the size of a nickel, which can be found around most homes in everyday items like remote controls, keyless entry devices for your car, sound-enabled books and a variety of health and fitness devices. Because many of these devices are not regulated as children’s toys, the battery compartments often are very easy to open. Children are naturally drawn to these devices, as many include buttons that are fun to play with and push.

The danger of these batteries is very real. If a coin-sized lithium battery is swallowed by a small child, it can get caught in the esophagus. The battery can react

with saliva and cause a chemical reaction that can lead to severe injuries in as little as two hours.

Unfortunately, many parents do not know about the issue. In fact, a recent survey showed 62 percent of parents reported being unaware of the risk associated with coin lithium batteries.

Spread the word

In an effort to help keep children safe, Energizer and the National Safety Council are working together to educate parents and caregivers on the steps they can take to help prevent these injuries.

“We know parents and caregivers are constantly thinking about their children’s safety, but we want to bring awareness to an issue still unknown to many families,” said Amy Heinzen, Program Manager of Grants and Strategic Initiatives for the National Safety Council. “Coin lithium battery safety needs to be top of mind and we hope parents will take the time to learn about the issue with these four simple steps to help children be safe.”

News Sermonette

By the Rev. Lamar H. Handwerk Pastor, St. Peter’s UCC, Seemsville

God Can Help Us Stick “Beloved, let us love one another; for love is of God, and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God (1 John 4:7 KJV).”

I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! And so I am dedicating this devotional to all of us who “stick it out” through the “thick and thin” of LIFE–married or single– we are blessed…

And that’s where the PEANUT BUTTER ‘N JELLY SANDWICH comes in, believe it or not! For you see, love, life AND “pbj” do have a lot in common…

Love in the Sweet Times – We can know God’s love– it’s the jelly in the middle, the sweetness of being together in His Will and for His good pleasure. He gives us the ability to make choices–we can choose to love and honor our mate, family and friends–even when it’s hard. He is with us–right there in the middle of it all–to share with us HIS abiding love.

Love in the Sticky Times – We can know God’s joy–it holds people together in the tough times, when happiness is not enough. It’s NEVER enough, even in a good marriage or other relationship–only God can bring to us the joy that is eternal, that lasts through trials, tests and storms. He’s there, when we call on His Name–He is with us, to share with us HIS never-ending joy.

Love in the Crunch! – We can know God’s peace–it’s there for the “nutty” times–when things go topsy-turvy, when we don’t know which way to turn, when unexpected problems arise. He brings peace to those who seek His face and honor His Word. He’s there, when we call on His Name–He is with us, to share with us HIS calming peace.

Got yourself a peanut butter ‘n jelly sandwich that needs the Master Chef’s touch today? He knows how to make it GOOD, how to make it BETTER, and how to make it the BEST! Take the ingredients to Him, let Him put it all together, or put it BACK together–and you’ll find the love, joy and peace only HE can give. It’s for LIFE–whether you’re married or not! It works–for 25 years–and for a lifetime! Believe it–go make yourself a yummy, crunchy PBJ–and have a great day!! a.m. For more information, please call the church office at 610 767-1239, or visit us online @ www. bethanywes.org.

Golden Gleams

Quiet persons are welcome everywhere.

No wealth is like the quiet mind.

The good and the wise lead quiet lives.

It is difficult to keep quiet if you have nothing to do.

Much study is a weariness of the flesh.

Study as if you were to live forever, Live as if you were to die tomorrow.

Business and action strengthen the brain, but too much study weakens it.

Those who do not study are only cattle dressed up in men’s clothes.

Reaching out in Christ's name at Emmanuel’s Lutheran Church

The need continues for food of all kinds. So during this month of September, Emmanuel’s Lutheran Church has a goal to collect 290 items for the food bank in Bath. When you're shopping, buy two of something you really enjoy or feel good about giving to your family and bring one to church so they can share those blessings with all who are in need.

Please do not bring chips or pretzels - they may be a favorite but they get crushed at the food bank!

The campaing is part of the the 290th Anniversary Celebration at Emmanuel’s Lutheran Church this year.

Some of the folks who come to the food bank have pets for companionship and love.

They have appreciated the gifts of pet food to allow them to keep their furry friends.

If you can help, please bring a pet food item. In October we will have our annual pet blessing. So if you are able, bring along a pet food item this month or next

Drowning in Grouse Hall Lake

Police Blotter Lehigh Twsp.

Retail Theft

On Sept. 4 at 9:15 p.m., Jessica Dominique Williams, 22. of Loop Rd., Slatington allegedly stole 12 DVDs from the K-mart store at 400 N. Best Rd. in Lehigh Township.

When a store loss prevention officer tried to stop her, she began to yell. Lehigh Township Police then found the DVDs in her car’s glove compartment.

She was arraigned before District Judge Jacqueline Taschner, who set bail at $15,000.

Police said Ms. Williams was charged previously with thefts in May 2009 and March 2010.

On Sept. 2 at 3:17 p.m., Douglas Bachman, 51, of Bethlehem fell into the Grouse Hall Fish & Game lake at 3335 Levans Rd., North Whitehall Twsp., Lehigh County, while fishing. The victim ultimately went under and never resurfaced.

Bachman was located at the bottom of the lake by members of the Schnecksville Fire Co. and pulled to shore. He was taken to the Lehigh Valley Hospital at Cedar Crest Blvd., where he was pronounced dead.

Charged with D.U.I. After Stop

On August 4 at 3:29 a.m., Gary Lee Sicher of Coplay was stopped on Rt. 873 north of Glencrest Rd., Washington Twsp., Lehigh County for multiple vehicle code violations. During the stop it was suspected he was D.U.I.

More Events Coming Soon

Sicher was taken into custody and processed. It was determined that his blood alcohol content at the time of the stop was .14% He was charged with D.U.I. and other vehicle code violations.

Pet in Need

Drugs on Him

On Sept. 6 at 11:37 p.m. along Rt. 873 at McDonald’s in North Whitehall Township, Mark M. Rex, 22, of Germansville was stopped by a State Trooper for several traffic violations. He was taken into custody for suspicion of driving under the influence of a controlled substance. Drug paraphernalia and illegal narcotics were recovered from him.

Task Force Makes Drug Arrest

On Monday, September 16, the Northampton County Drug Task Force in cooperation with the Lehigh Township and Northampton Borough Police Departments served an arrest warrant at 3751 Mangrove Dr., Northampton (Lehigh Township). It was the result of a three-month investigation involving a controlled purchase of marijuana.

Officers took Trevor Stofko into custody on charges of delivery of a controlled substance, possession with intent to deliver a controlled substance, and other charges.

As they searched the residence, officers recovered more than $9,596 in cash, more than half a pound of marijuana, several grams of hashish, several hundred baggies, a scale, and more than 15 pieces of drug paraphernalia.

Stofko was arraigned before District Judge Robert Hawke and committed to Northampton County Prison under $40,000 bail. Police expect more charges will be filed.

-Tandy I am sweet, intelligent, loving, and beautiful. I will match any decor. I am very colorful. I need to be supervised when outside. I have a tendency to wander off in search of new adventures.

More about Tndy- she is about 17 inches tall, weighs about 37 pounds, is tricolored, housebroken, obedience trained, loves cats,

and other dogs, children, and just about anything that moves.

She is spayed and up to date on shots. Would need a secure yard and strict supervision when out.
