For Eastern basketball fans, who are not getting ready to play the biggest basketball game in school history since 1988, may I recommend a website to you for information on Neumann-Gorretti, your opponent in Tuesday's Class AAA Eastern final: http://www.tedsilary.com/.
He's a writer with the Philadelphia Daily News and has covered the Public League and Catholic League in the city for decades. Site is a little busy with content, but one should find out everything you need to know about N-G and the teams that they played.

TMI generator update
In an earlier post on COLUMBIA TALK, it was reported the generators from the inactive Unit Two reactor at Three Mile Island would be passing through the area on Route 441 and over Route 30 in the next two weeks.
The move of the generators through the area will take place next Saturday, causing traffic delays and temporary closings of Route 441.
The convoy will most likely pass through the Columbia area during the evening hours.

Construction moves forward
Construction is moving forward at the Columbia Junior-Senior High School campus.
At Thursday’s school board meeting, Superintendent Dr. Barry Clippinger reported the renovations are on schedule.
“We are not anticipating any hiccups,” Clippinger said. “So, we are pleased.”
If you travel Route 30, evidence of the construction progress is visible. The roof of the large group instruction area is now visible. The windows need to be installed and when complete, it will offer an outstanding view of the Susquehanna River.
Clippinger said that renovations to the gym lobby area have begun, along with extensions onto the cafeteria and improvements to the main lobby area.
“The new floor is being completed in the media center and that should be ready to occupancy inlate April or by May 1.
This week, the eighth grade wing at the middle school will be relocated to rooms 105 through 109.
Also at its meeting Thursday night, the board awarded a contract for asbestos removal at the high school complex to Plymouth Environmental for $29,800.
Small amounts of asbestos that were never removed during previous renovations were found in some classrooms being renovated around bulletin boards and blackboards.
