this decision,” said PA Congressman
Glenn Thompson. “Act 44 never met the
criteria set by the federal law. This is the
third time FHWA has turned down the

third time is the charm, and the
Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission,
Governor and leaders in Harrisburg will
get realistic about the Commonwealthʼs

"It's great to see the Federal Highway
Administration agrees—once again—with
our view that Pennsylvania should not be
permitted to create a toll road when the
intent is to use a portion of toll profits for
anything but the reconstruction and main-
tenance of the highway,” added State
Representative Mario Scavello.
“We are relieved the tolling scheme has

Interstate 80. We expect the

Alliance and President of the
Williamsport/Lycoming Chamber of
Commerce.
“I am pleased with DOT for rejecting the
application to toll I-80,” said
Congressman Paul Kanjorski. “I have
advocated for years that we should not
implement policies that dramatically dis-
criminate against Northeastern
Pennsylvanians by asking them to pay a
disproportionate share of the cost for a
statewide problem. Tolling I-80 would
have done that, and I am pleased to see
that DOT seriously considered my objec-
tions, and also correctly interpreted the
law which resulted in the applicationʼs
rejection. Now, we must work together to
help the Governor and State Legislature
determine how to fairly address the
stateʼs highway budget shortfall. I stand
ready to help in any way that I can.”
Thompson, Kanjorski and
Congressmen Kathy Dahlkemper, D-Erie,
and Chris Carney, D-Dimock joined a
number of state legislators to attend a
briefing on December 17 with FHWA
Deputy Administrator Greg Nadeau. In
that session, 13 state representatives told
the Deputy Administrator what even the
threat of tolling I-80 has already done to
local businesses and industry in their
areas. A month later, the group was meet-
ing with Secretary Ray LaHood himself to
make their case against tolling.

Editorial:

Tolling of Interstate 80
no longer threatens area
by Seth Isenberg
Governor Ed Rendell and
his allies in the State
Legislature can no longer
threaten Northern
Pennsylvania with tolling our
free interstate. They will have
to find some other way to fund
PennDOTʼs road repairs and
the variety of state transit
agencies that were promised
money from toll revenues gen-
erated by those of us who live
along Interstate 80, as well as
visitors and truckers passing
through our area.
The governor had decided
that we northerners were
going to foot the bill for proj-
ects and public transit primari-
ly benefiting southern PA. It
was not fair, it was not right,
and it was a power-play by the
more populated south part of
our state against the more
rural north. And this week, that
power-play failed.

In addition to serving on the
board, John is also responsi-

Interstate 80 was already paid
for by tax dollars and main-
tained through the decades
with taxpayer-funded repairs.
To suddenly hand over this
property, the result of billions
of dollars worth of construction
dollars, to the Commonwealth
of PA for its exclusive use to
generate money, would have
been wrong in many ways. But
the idea that some of that
money would be skimmed off
to fund non-highway projects,
or road repairs not related to
Interstate 80, would have
been thievery. Thank you to
everyone who made the feder-
al decision to prevent this from
happening.
Interstate 80 does need
repairs, and improvements.
Our area is willing to pay for
those because we need this
federal highway maintained
for the health of our business
community. Local businesses
have one less threat this week
to their well-being with the
Interstate 80 tolls threat put to
rest.

Footprints in the Valley Sky
Section III, Part VIII—To Korea and Back:
Getting Altitude – or – Man without Vision Shall Perish
by Joliet (Turnbach) Custer
His students recount flying lessons with
Willis Reifenberg, 1940s-1960s, as consis-
tent, calm, all business. Willisʼ approach to
lessons was based on individual student
attitude, what students brought to the les-
son: building confidence in new students;
providing greater challenge when students
demonstrated readiness; stern correction,
or stern silence, with an occasional over-
confident, perhaps cocky, risk-taker, prone
to breaking rules with the trainer plane or
displaying recklessness. An example
involved some students not following
Willisʼ restricted takeoff path at St. Johns
airfield, the reasonable request of a local
farm businessman. When a student
thought he was getting away with it, the
phone was soon ringing at St. Johns field,
the farm businessman forced to complain
again for damages to panicked stock. As
with any professional flight instructor, Willis
could not, would not, tolerate a cavalier
approach to flying in his students. “He was
all business!” recalls Dollie Zmitrovich
Thomas. He was kind, respectful, but
when conducting flight lessons, Willis
taught the serious responsibility that flying
presented, alongside the technical knowl-
edge.
“Could you describe Willis during your
early lessons (1947-51)?” “He was a very
gentle, understanding, kind person,” Ed
Deets recalls. “He told you what would be
expected, what it would be like before you
even get off the ground.” Ed enthusiasti-
cally describes his first lessons with Willis
in the earliest model J-3 Piper Cub, “It was
the 55hp J-3, the one that had the trainer
seat. You sat tandem, one behind the
other, and there was just a stick there that
you worked, not a little wheel [yoke] like
today. [To start the plane,] you had to
[manually] spin the propeller! Either you or
Willis would sit inside and say ʻswitch offʼ or
ʻswitch onʼ; youʼd spin it a couple of times
and then youʼd say ʻswitch onʼ, give it a
spin, and then itʼd start up. Then he told
you what we were going to do for the day.
Youʼd do a couple landings…, but the one
that was quite interesting at that time…,”
Ed recalls, with some revisited trepidation,
“…you had to do spins! Youʼd have to get
up pretty high, then do two complete spins,
[go] around, then around again, then pull
out! I didnʼt like that too much! Of course,
Willis was used to that! But, you know, I
was learning, and I didnʼt care too much for
those spins! You donʼt have to do them
today; [taught] in case something went
wrong, [youʼd know] how to pull out if you
lost power. But I still didnʼt like them...only
had to do three!”
“Then after that you got ready to do your
solo, which meant you had to go to anoth-
er airport, [land], and get them to sign your
log book and all that. I soloed—not in the
Spring 2010
J-3 Piper Cub [at the St. Johns airfield]—
with my 180hp Cherokee up at the
Hazleton Airport.” “You did your [pilot
license] solo later in your own plane, your
Cherokee in 1969?” “Yes, from Hazleton
Airport; I had to go down to Kutztown, Pa.,
then Reading—I had to make a triangle—
and then back up to Hazleton.”
“When Willis came home from a day of
business flying with Ed Deets, he often
remarked how Ed always had a new busi-
ness idea,ʼ” recalls Helen Reifenberg,
“always had his mind on his job!” Among
Edʼs many businesses was the purchase
of Historic Stage Coach Inn, Drums, Pa.
(1988). During our lunch conversation with
Ed at Stage Coach Inn (8/09), Helen told
Ed a story that even Ed didnʼt know!
Helenʼs cousin Ester and husband, Peter
Solutko, built the restaurant near natural
Sand Springs. Helen and Willis enjoyed
regular family visits with them, sharing din-
ner, evening card games, before its grand
opening. “One evening,” Helen recalls,
“Ester said they were about to open, but
still had no idea what to name the place!”
Willis replied matter-of-factly, “Well, this is
where the stage coaches stopped
overnight and watered the horses at the
springs. Why donʼt you name it Stage
Coach Inn?” That was it—the card game
continued. Willisʼ suggestion on that 1946
evening has been used ever since—now
Ed knew…the rest of the story!
So there it is again—that vision—anoth-
er business-picture in Edʼs mind—a
renewed “Stage Coach Inn” reopened
(2/12/88), its name enduring time, now in
the capable hands of Willisʼ flight student
and friend.
Edʼs vision stretches across America:

VALLEY RUNNING CLUB NEWS:
Featured Runner: Local Runners (L to R) Tim Felegie, Mark Nenstiel and Daniel Nenstiel pose
a moment at the Susquehanna Trail 5k April 3 in Shickshinny. Felegie, sometimes referred to as
an elite runner, finished 2nd overall at 17:36. Mark Nenstiel crossed the finish line at 23:53 beat-
ing Daniel at a close 23:57…. Thatʼs racing……
It must be the nice weather
bringing out the runners and
walkers too. I find myself get-
ting off the mill (treadmill) and
hitting the pavement the last
week or so enjoying the smells
and sights of spring, not to
mention a better workout.
Iʼm lucky enough to have a
loyal running partner also. It
seems to me she is as dedi-
cated as any other runner I
know. A lab mix, “Honey”
keeps me company and moti-
vated too.
Anyone could see the
excitement in her as I put on
my sneakers before a run. I

from Tenderfoot to Eagle, each America during their hundredth
requiring more skills and knowl- anniversary. Society definitely

total of at least 21 merit badges, teaches the values embodied in
an active leadership position in the Scout Law – “A Scout is
the Troop, and performance of a Trustworthy, Loyal, Helpful,
community service project of the Friendly, Courteous, Kind,
boyʼs own design. Only about 4% Obedient, Cheerful, Thrifty, Brave,
of boys actually attain the rank of Clean, and Reverent.”
Eagle. Notably, in its 70 year his-
tory Troop 63 has had 43 boys Scoutmasters of Troop 63
attain the rank of Eagle! There are
plaques in the basement of the St Lewis H. Slessler
Johns church that contain the 1940-43
names and signatures of all the Norman W. Walk
Eagles from the Troop. 1944
One aspect of Scouting that Earl C. Zearfoss
gets little attention is the role of 1945-51
the adult leadership. Although Samuel C. McFarland
parents of the boys in the Troop 1952-53
would be expected to participate George E. Klinger
in their sonsʼ development, many 1954-55
adults stay long beyond the time Edward W. Sharp
their own boys finish. Troop 63 1956-57
has fine examples of this fact; two Eugene Ray 1958-66
mothers whose boys finished Lowell Hausman

The dedication (and maybe a little William L. Kresge
motherly prodding) they exhibited 1975, 1977-80
with their own sons endures and Franklin E. Mace
benefits many other boys and the 1981
