Class of 1964 Corry Beaver mascot ready for reunion

Sports teams are named for many reasons, including stately birds, ferocious animals and warriors of old. For the Corry Beavers, the name came directly from The Corry Evening Journal sports editor Bill Lombard, way back in 1929.

In a Journal article dated March 3, 1978, Corry resident Edwin M. Cole provided information about Lombard and how Corry school teams became known as the Beavers.

Up until October 1929, the Corry football team was unofficially referred to as Orange and Black, or The Warriors. However, in a Journal article in October of 1929, Lombard described the football team as working in the mud like beavers to keep the opposing team from scoring.

“Isuggest and recommend that, from now on, the Orange and Black be known as the Corry Beavers,” Lombard wrote.

Ninety-five years later, Corry sports teams continue to proudly carry that moniker.

In 1974, Corry Area High School’s Class of 1964 put a float in the Alumni Centennial Parade, complete with giant wooden Corry Beavers painted by Harry Munsee. Harry’s sister, Zela Munsee, remembers how her brother lent his artistic talents to her class. 

“My brother Harry Munsee designed, cut out and painted those beavers for us for our 10th class reunion in 1964,” Zela Munsee said. “Harry did a lot of painting, caricatures and air brushing on tractor trailers — he was a very talented artist. His caricatures hung in the Tamarack Tavern for years.” 

For the centennial parade, the two beavers were mounted on the sides of a garden tractor to give the impression of the Corry Beaver pulling the class of 1974 float. That same year, the beavers were used in another parade in Bear Lake before being stored in a classmate’s barn for a decade.

“In 1984, we took those beavers and put them in the pavilion at Swart Field on…

Suspect in Newport Township assault stole police cruiser

NEWPORT TWP. — A suspect in a burglary and an assault in Glen Lyon allegedly stole a Nanticoke police cruiser leading to a massive search of a wooded area on Monday.

Joshua Goodwin, 44, of Wilkes-Barre, was apprehended about 12 p.m. after a several hour search that began on Orchard Street in Newport Township.

Police in Newport Township in court records say Goodwin was given a ride to a residence on Orchard Street by Melanie Hunter Miscavage, 52, of Glen Lyon, at about 2 a.m.

Miscavage visited a woman who lived at the house that Goodwin forced his way inside through a rear door, according to court records.

Goodwin allegedly assaulted and strangled the woman and held a handgun to her head threatening to kill her.

As Goodwin was assaulting the woman, Miscavage left the house but was detained by police.

Goodwin fled the house on foot and was spotted near the Ken Pollock Apartments on Depot Street, Glen Lyon, by a Nanticoke police officer transporting Miscavage, court records say.

During the confrontation, court records say, Goodwin managed to steal the Nanticoke police cruiser with Miscavage in the rear seat.

Police searched the area and eventually recovered the stolen Nanticoke police cruiser in an alley near East Main Street in Glen Lyon.

Court records say video footage from inside the Nanticoke police cruiser showed Miscavage telling Goodwin to run away before the cruiser was located.

Police allege Miscavage conspired with Goodwin to burglarize the house on Orchard Street and assaulting the woman.

Goodwin was arraigned by District Judge Michael Dotzel of Wilkes-Barre Township on four counts each of aggravated assault and simple assault, two counts of terroristic threats, and one count…

Now in her 15th year, DeWanna Bonner’s elite start powering unbeaten Connecticut Sun

UNCASVILLE — Connecticut Sun star DeWanna Bonner had no idea she was on the precipice of 7,000 career points entering Tuesday’s game against the Phoenix Mercury, but the 15-year WNBA veteran allowed herself to savor the moment when the milestone was announced at Mohegan Sun Arena. Bonner spread her arms wide, basking in an ovation from the home crowd and waving back at the orange-clad fans with an ear-to-ear grin.

“I didn’t even know that was going to happen, so when it did it was very cool, especially after the week that we had,” Bonner said. “Just to get that love back at home home is huge, and to see to see that people actually love us and the fans are showing up, it was just perfect timing. It was really perfect timing for myself personally and our team.”

Since the start of the 2024 season, Bonner hasn’t logged a single performance with less than 19 points. The 36-year-old is averaging 20.3 points, 4.8 rebounds, two assists and two steals, all her highest totals through six games since her first season with the Sun in 2020. She also earned Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors in Week 2.

Bonner has averaged more than 20 points over the first six games of the season just three times in her career, and she went on to finish top 10 in MVP voting all three years. Her best six-game start came with the Mercury in 2019, when she averaged 23.8 points, 8.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists.

What’s been especially remarkable about Bonner’s start in 2024 is her consistency. The veteran’s averages don’t include an outlier performance…

Engaging with Tribes at the 2024 Regional Tribal Conversation in Kansas City

group of people from tribal conversation event

 

On April 22-24, the Region 7 Office of Child Support Services team held their annual Tribal Conversation in Kansas City, with representatives from the tribal child support agencies of the Kickapoo Tribe in Kansas, the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, the Delaware Tribe of Indians, the Meskwaki Nation, and the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.  Also attending were OCSS Director of Regional Operations, Melissa Johnson, and ACF Regional Administrator, Barbara Lacina.  

The annual Tribal Conversation began in 2012, as an opportunity for the tribal child support programs to share best practices, learn from peers, solve problems, and develop program innovations.  The ACF Regional Administrator was invited, to present on the range of programs and services funded by ACF in Tribal Nations, to explain how ACF fits into the big HHS picture, to describe all the programs and services HHS encompasses, and to illustrate how child support agencies can collaborate with other HHS-funded tribal programs such as home visiting, mental health and substance use, or health services and resources, to engage with the broader tribal community. 

Another unique and key element of the Tribal Conversation was a focus on fatherhood collaborations.  To advance this aspect of the agenda, Regional Administrator Lacina presented an overview and background on the formation and purposes of the Region 7 Fatherhood Economic Mobility Task Force.  RA Lacina encouraged the tribal child support Directors to consider having a member of their team join the Task Force, both to bring much-needed tribal representation and voices to the group as well as to gain information and ideas that will strengthen efforts to build their own fatherhood collaborations. 

The OCSS team reported that the ORO presence at the Tribal Conversation was very beneficial, and the discussions were informative and well-received.

UN mission in Iraq to end after two decades

UN mission in Iraq to end after two decades

         UNITED NATIONS, United States, May  31, 2024 (BSS/AFP) – At the request of
Baghdad, the UN Security Council unanimously decided Friday that the United
Nations political mission in Iraq will leave the country at the end of 2025
after more than 20 years.

       Earlier this month, in a letter to the council, Iraqi Prime Minister
Mohamed Shia al-Sudani called for the United Nations Assistance Mission for
Iraq (UNAMI) to be closed.

       Al-Sudani said UNAMI had overcome “great and varied challenges” and that
“the grounds for having a political mission in Iraq” no longer exist.

       The UNSC resolution adopted on Friday extended the mission’s mandate for “a
final 19-month period until 31 December 2025 after which UNAMI will cease all
work and operations.”

       Farhad Alaaldin, the Iraq prime minister’s advisor for foreign affairs,
welcomed the move, expressing on X his “thanks to UNAMI for all their work
during the past two decades.”

       The mission was established by a UN Security Council resolution in 2003 at
the request of the Iraqi government after the US-led invasion and fall of
Saddam Hussein.

       It has about 700 staff, with key tasks including advising the government on
political dialogue and reconciliation, as well as helping with elections and
security sector reform.

       During the mission’s previous renewal in May 2023, the Council asked the
secretary-general to launch a strategic review, which was overseen by German
diplomat Volker Perthes.

       In a report issued in March, Perthes signaled that the closing schedule
would reassure reluctant Iraqis that the transition “will not lead to a
reversal of democratic gains or threaten peace and security.”
