  • This Week’s LION: Carol Sides: A True Patriot0

    Larry Stout

    On Thursday, November 10, 2016, just two days after Donald Trump had won the presidential election, Carol Sides, a senior citizen from Williamsport, received a call. “Mrs. Sides, this is the State Police. I am calling to inform you that all your personal information, including your home address, cell phone number, and email, has been

  • “We Shouldn’t Have to Bury Our Children”: Film About Opioid Crisis Hits Hard0

    Joseph W. Smith III

    I have to get even more personal than usual in this latest film review, because “The Rise of Opioids” hit me hard. Sponsored by Muncy’s Road Radio USA and produced by Williamsport’s On the Pulse, this documentary on the local opioid crisis starts right off by interviewing Caroline Miele, who lost her son Zachary to

  • County Hall Corner: Don’t Read This!0

    Larry Stout

    Aha! You are disobeying the directive to not read this article. That means you are a person who is inquisitive, a person who is seeking truth no matter where you might find it, a person who wants to make up your own mind. You are the type of person that our founding fathers recognized was

    Terri Schlichenmeyer

    Everything hurts. Your joints, your bones, your skin, even your hair hurts. You don’t want to move — which is fine, since you barely can. So what do you reach for? A phone to call the doctor or, as in the new book “If It Sounds Like a Quack…” by Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling, does that idea

  • One Day of Remembrance Isn’t Enough0

    Wesley Sones

    The International Holocaust Remembrance Day has already passed on Fri., Jan. 27, 2023. This date marks the liberation of the Auschwitz Concentration camp. Auschwitz was only one of many Concentration Camps used in the systematic murder of 6 million Jewish people. It is hard to comprehend or put into words the sheer scale of the

  • Coup Crap0

    Larry Stout

    At first, I was amused by the US Congress January 6 Committee created to investigate the coup/insurrection that took place on that day in 2021, as a group of zealots stormed the hallowed chambers of our US Congresspeople for the purpose of preventing the certification of the 2020 presidential election. First, this is no ‘investigation’

  • County Hall Corner: A Capital Candidate0

    Larry Stout

    One of the more unique aspects of this upcoming election is the number of individuals running for everything from state governor to local offices with no government experience. It is true that there was always the first person that the surgeon cut open or the first airplane that a pilot landed on the ground. Still,

    The Bookworm Sez: “Ethel Rosenberg: An American Tragedy” by Anne Sebba0

    Terri Schlichenmeyer

    OK, you’ll just shut up now. You won’t say a word. You’re mum, tongue-tied in a knot; you ain’t no stoolie. You’ve zipped your lip for good. As in the new book, ”Ethel Rosenberg: An American Tragedy” by Anne Sebba, you’re not throwing anybody under the bus. Ethel Greenglass was born in the fall of 1915, and

  • As Not Seen On TV0

    Jim Webb

    The United States of America is not the racist hate land as portrayed by the major news networks, elected officials, and groups using this issue to segregate and create division. I have not seen, read, or heard anyone condoning Derek Chauvin or the officers involved in the taking of George Floyd’s life. I have witnessed

    I have always made myself available to everyone with my contact information available on page 4. I encourage people to call or text me. Many email.

  • A Mountaineer in the White House0

    Scott Lowery

    While enjoying moments of offensive glory, including scoring the winning points in a playoff game at Canton, South Williamsport’s Brandon Gantz’s three-sport athletic career was highlighted by his defensive performances as a linebacker and infielder for Mountaineer teams. These days, Gantz’s defensive attributes are employed at a much higher level as a member of the

  • Not So Democratic Party1

    Jim Webb

    The Inquisition of President Trump is absolutely pathetic. I have never seen a less Democratic procedure take place in our Nation’s Capital. Democracy and the current Democratic Party couldn’t be any greater of a contradiction. The current House Judiciary hearing has absolutely nothing to do with what they claim are two impeachable offenses, and everything

    Lou Hunsinger, Jr.

    When Susan Durrwachter was growing up here in Williamsport, she could have scarcely imagined that one day she would be rubbing elbows with the likes of Oprah Winfrey, Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Donald Trump, Rod Stewart, Aretha Franklin, the Jacksons, Matt Damon, and several four and five-star generals. She was able to do this as

    There’s just no easing into this cesspool, so I may as well jump right in. I cannot believe what I witnessed last Thursday as I watched the Senate Judiciary Committee hearings on Judge Brett Kavanaugh and his alleged sexual misconduct that occurred 36 years ago. As I penned this article, I was waiting for the

    Law enforcement in this country has been taking it on the chin lately as the result of some high visibility, controversial incidents that have been taking place in various parts of the country. In Lycoming County, law enforcement owns a good reputation and the respect of the citizens, this may be the result in part,

  • A Lot of Work to be Done!0

    Jim Webb

    It’s great to see the bridge over Loyalsock Creek that connects Montoursville and Loyalsock is getting a makeover. Over 14,000 vehicles cross the bridge on a daily basis. That’s a pretty amazing amount of traffic crossing the old three-span truss bridge that was originally built in 1931. It was definitely due for some structural repair.

    Well, the calendar reads May, and things are warming up. I’m not going to say it can’t snow, because this spring anything’s been possible. How nice is it though to sit out at a ballgame with a short sleeve shirt and shorts as that bright sunshine beats down on your shoulders? Sixty is the new

    Happy Spring! Yes, I know the official beginning of the season of rebirth was several weeks ago. However, the weather has been more like December than April soon to be May.

    One of the great mysteries in leadership theory is that no one has come up with a way to predict leadership. Everyone can recognize a leader after they have achieved something worthwhile, but who has the crystal ball to pick that person while they are still a nobody? Maybe someone should interview Congressman Tom Marino

    Did you really think anything was going to come out of the FBI’s investigation of Ms. Hillary Rodham Clinton?
