11 to 20 1953 Home and Sports Preview show at the Watres Armory. This was learned Saturday as appointment of Sam Hyman, ofll dal of the general chairman of -the show was announced by Jaycee" President Philip A. Sweet upon hia return from Indlantown Gap encampment of the 109th Infantry Regiment. Mr. Sweet also announced that Mayor James T.

Hanlon end Attorney Henry Nogi, president of the Scranton Chamber of Commerce, will be honorary chairmen of the 1935 Home end Sports Preview." Named as vice chairmen were Jade Jenkins, Tony Cognettt and James Scott, Sylvester Kazmerski, executive secretary of the Jaycees, will be show coordinator. President Sweet, who Initiated plans for the exhibition, reported that a successful show could result in the acquisition of an industrial park site before the end of this year." And he expressed the hope that as many as 20 ngw industries, would be attracted to the proposed 100-acre site through the recently initiated Industrial Prospect Contest sponsored by the Jaycees. Jaycee officials declined to disclose any information about the site reportedly Under consideration, apparently because negotiations for its purchase have not started and are not likely to begin until the organization has some assurance that the Nov. 11-20 show will produce sufficient funds to cover the cost President Sweets "hope for 20 new industries apparently was based on the theory that each five-acre section of the 100-acre tract would be sufficient to accommodate a 100,000 square foot plant, Including making provision for parking and other associated If the highest hopes are realized, through purchase end development of en ideal tract for new industries equipped with all necessary public utilities and railroad sidings, 20 new 100,000 square foot plants would practically solve the unemployment problems in Scranton and Lackawanna County. It is estimated that 20 plants of that size would produce at least 4,000 new Jobs with a pos sibility for an even greater employment.

And ft Is a commonly accepted theory that at least an equal number of related Jobs would be created through the acquisition of that number of new Industries long with providing work for hundreds of construction workers In erecting new plants. Thus fir the Jayeees Industrial site park plana dont ge as far as financing the erection of industrial buildings. It la assumed that this would havo to be handled by Joint effort of tho Jayeeea and the Senior Chamber perhaps through another appeal to the public for contributions of funds to cover all or part of the huge investment in erection of Industrial buildings. Mr. Hyman, after accepting the general chairmanship of the show, announced that he has started work on the selection of committee chairmen.

The chairman said he was encouraged by the ready response of Jaycee members to the task involved ift organizing the 1955 Home and Sports Preview. He reported he has been deluged1 with calls from members volunteering their services. Cooperation of this caliber, Mr. Hyman laid, will enable the Jaycees, which recently Increased enrollment by 50 per cent through a special membership drive, to present the largest home and sports show in the history of Northeastern '2 Highway Department officials of New York and Pennsylvania and representatives of motor clubs will Join the formal open ilng of the new Interstate bridge over the, Delaware River be tween parbytown, Wayne County.andNarrowsburg, N. Tuesday.

Ribbon shearing to permit the vehicles to cross will fee 4ure the Bernard J. Harding, District Highway Engineer, reported Saturday. Thera are 10 Interstate bridges spanning the Delaware-between New York and Pennsylvania and one between Pennsylvania and New Jersey in Hardings seven' district Harding explained that two boards have been established to make certain the structures are properly maintained and recon ditloned, whenever it becomes necessary. The New York-Penn-sylvania and the New Jersey Pennsylvania Interstate Bridge Commissions function for this purpose, be added. It is the responsibility of the Pennsylvania Highway Department to maintain the Port Jervis, Pond Eddy, Shohola, Skinners Tails and Narrowsburg Bridges between this State and New York.

New York Is reseponslble for the Damascus, Calicoon, Stalker, Equlnunk and Hancok Bridges. The bridge between Milford, Pike County, and Montague, N. is the responsibility of the New Jersey-Pennsylvania Commission. A new bridge at this crossing was recently completed and opened to the traveling public, Harding continued. He also stated New York built a new bridge between Damascus and Cochecton, N.

four years In addition to the aforemen- tloned public bridges there are two privately owned toll bridges over the Delaware at Lacks waxen, Dingmans Terry, Pike County, When rebuilding of an interstate bridge between PennsyJ-' vania and New York becomes a survey is made, plans are prepared and the struc lure is rebuilt or replaced in accordance with specifications of the State responsible, Harding declared. The plans must be approved the other participating state. The responsible State must sup-, ply inspection and engineeivg during construction. This cost and drafting plans are shared equally by both states. The State Highway Department awarded the contract for the Narrowsburg Bridge April 11933, to H.

T. Os burn St Co. It replaces a 83-year-old atruc-. 'ture. It was erected in 1899 with a roadway width of 18 feet and its load limit was 12 "tons.

It was 234 feet long. The new structure te be opened Tuesday Is 428 feet In length. It consists of steel arch, 288 feet long with an I-beam span on each end. The readway Is 28 feet wide with five-foot sidewalk channels. The approaches are con strueted ef 18-inch crushed stone bane and 24 inches ef bituminous surfacing.

Work was delayed on the project due to the inability of the contractor to obtain structural steel. The delay was aggravated by last Winter's weather when the stream became too rough to permit construction. The usual manner of erecting bridges-Jn the area Is to start erection of steel from the river banks and proceed In both directions to mid-stream, Hard-. lng explained. But because of the water depth it was more practical to erect the steel from a barge.

The scow was equipped with a crane to hoist and place steel members. The boats move' ments were controlled winches on both shores. A professional diver was employ to anchor the false workv to the rock in the river bottom. It was not necessary to establish temporary routes. The old ''bridge accomodated traffic during the construction period.

The total cost of the contract! 'was $498,874.90. The cost of the bridge alone was $428,582.10. It was shared equally by New York and Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania will be reimbursed by New York In the amount of $17,082.80 for "constructing the New York approach. The cost of constructing (he Pennsylvania approach, $55,010, assumed by this State.

Harding stated the.old bridge made a hazardous bottleneck by reason of its poor alignmenf and inadequate width. The new construction has provided a modem structure with sufficient width for traffic' and modem approaches. The old span will be dismantled. Thomas J.
