Some Residents
Flee Leak Area
FALMOUTH, Pa <UPI) -
Mark and Julie Sipling began
packing their bags today
when radio bulletins alerted
them of a new radiation leak
at the Three Mile Island
nuclear plant, two miles
directly across the river from
their home
The Siplings, who have a 13-
month-old daughter. Debbie,
heard the Civil Defense an-
nouncement on the radio
shortly before 10 a.m. They
closed all windows and doors
as the Civil Defense advised
and started packing suitcases
for possible evacuation
The couple, who live on a
farm in this usually quiet
1’ennsy si vania Dutch
countryside with its rolling
hills and rich farmland,
immediately tried to round
up their animals and lock
them in barns They have 66
pigs. 23 steers and 21 heifers
The mood earlier in the
morning around the plant site
was very relaxed with people
wandering around the area
saying that the danger has
passed It was a mood of
relief for the residents until
the announcement was made
The Siplings said now they
were "extremely worried,"
not only for themselves but
their young daughter and all
their farm animals
On Thursday, Sipling said
that since the incident occur-
red, "we have not seen
anyone around here from
Metropolitan Edison
although we only live about a
mile from the plant
' The officials used to come
around to check periodically
but 1 haven't seen them in
quite a while What worries
from past three days
Evertt Quackenbush, who
lives Just across the river
from the power plant., said
minutes before the civil
defense emergency was
declared that ‘‘hopefully,
they can get these plants to
the point where we can use
them. 1 am not worked up
about the leakage, but there
is a safety factor involved "
That was before
yuackenbush learned about
the latest emergency. After
being informed he said “I felt
they had it under control." He
then shook his head and
quickly walked his dog Nick
to his ranch house.
l^arry Richmond, a long-
distance truck driver, said
"we don't know what it would
be like to evacuate. No one
has told us what to do in the
case of an emergency
"I am sure if we were told
to evacuate there would be a
panic. Parents would try to
get their children out of
school and can you imagine
the traffic jams that would
cause'’"
Richmond said there were
600 children in the l/>n-
donderry Elementary school
which serves the area
During the past three days
children have not been
alllowed out for recess due to
possiblle health hazard
The civil defense an-
nouncement also said that
area kindergartens would be
closed for afternoon classes
Friday. Other school children
were being kept in their
classrooms and not sent
home to the possibily con-
taminated area until the
Mrs. Salisbury.

not know what to do or where
to go if an evacuation was

GOBELS, Mich. (UPI) -
Irate parents are seeking
action against an elementary
school teacher they blame for
their children's slumping
grades and accuse of
punishing students by tying
them up and taping their
mouths shut.
A dozen third-graders at
the Gobels Elementary
School more than half the
class - were taken honte by
their parents Wednesday to
protest inaction on com-
plaints against the teacher.
Mary Cain.
"The problem is mostly
just a lack of learning." said
Richard Pasek, one of the
parents involved in the
protest "Above-average
students are getting behind
and have to have tutoring
‘ ‘Our son was average as a
second-grader and now he’s
below average,” Pasek said
“Some kind of action had to
be taken ."
Pasek said there also have
been complaints that Ms.
Cain, who has taught at the
school for 51* years, uses
Cityan Named
In Burglary
Curtis 1-ee Irvin of Sapulpa
was named in a burglary of a
vending machine charge filed
Wednesday in district court
Irvin, of 1904 S. Ridgeway ,
is charged with breaking
open a vending machine at a
coin-operated car wash
located at 1000 S Main The
burglary allegedly occurred
March 13 at the South Main
Car Wash
A preliminary heanng on
the charge was set for May

$1,000 bond
unorthodox disciplinary
measures.
‘‘There were a couple of
complaints that a child had
his mouth taped for talking
out of turn,’’ he said “One
girl said she was tied with
string My son had to sit on
the floor.”
Pasek said his son, Ritchie,
8, was so upset by Ms Cain
that he suffered attacks of
nausea Doctors determined
his ailment was due to
discontent in the classroom
rather than a physical
problem, Pasek said
"A teacher needs some
discipline," said Pasek “We
don’t have to have her fired
We just want to find out
what’s going on “
School officials said they
have received complaints
about Ms. Cain for about a
month and discussed the
matter at two school board
meetings earlier this month
