UPMC Oncologist: When to Start Cancer Screenings
Abdalla Sholi, M.D.
Medical Oncologist, UPMC Hillman Cancer Center
The latest data from Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. To help reduce the number of cancer deaths, a wide variety of screenings are used by health care providers across the country.
Regular visits with your primary care provider usually include the recommended initial assessments, but it never hurts to advocate for yourself during these appointments. Be in the know of what cancer screenings to expect for your age range and ensure that you are getting screened accordingly.

Frey and Bixler Set Records at Rolfe Beagle Club’s Statewide Predator Hunt or Trap
Johnsonburg, Pa.: Freddy Frey is a well-known predator hunter. Freddy and his hunting partner Josh Bixler both set records over the weekend at Rolfe Beagle Club’s Statewide Coyote and Fox Hunt or Trap.
Freddy registered 10 red foxes from farms in Somerset County. The previous high total for number of foxes harvested at a Rolfe Hunt was set by Freddy himself and Steph Conto in September of 2022. The red foxes ranged in weight from 6.4# up to 13.4#. Freddy brought in six male and four female red foxes, coming from Somerset and Lancaster Counties.
Freddy’s 13.4# female red fox also set a record for the largest female red fox ever harvested at a Rolfe Hunt.
Josh Bixler brought in three foxes: a 13.8# male red fox from York County; a 10.2# female red fox from Lancaster County; and an 8.6# female red fox from Somerset County. The 13.8# male red fox also set a new record for weight at a Rolfe Hunt. The previous weight record for a male fox was set by Jared Kuleck with a 13.0# male red fox in 2019.
Freddy and Josh hunt together and use a thermal scope with an electronic call. They also shoot with suppressors. Freddy shoots a .223 caliber rifle, and Josh harvests with a 6 mm ARC rifle.
In addition, Freddy harvested a 34.0# male coyote from Somerset County and a 27.6# female coyote from Fulton County.
Hunters are reminded that Rolfe Beagle Club will be holding their 101h Annual, Statewide, 10-Day Coyote and Crow Hunt from August 30 to September 9.
Stuffy Sleepover at the Library children’s program
Monday, February 20, 2023
Pull out those pajamas and get ready to party, because the Barbara Moscato Brown Memorial Library is excited to bring you our first ever, Stuffy Sleepover at the Library, March 10 from 5-7 pm.
Children are invited to wear their pajamas (optional) and bring their favorite stuffed animal (no oversized toys please) to the library for an evening of activities and stories. Please only bring one stuffed animal per child attending. Extra stuffed animals will be on hand for those who are too nervous to leave their friend behind.
The evening will start off with hot cocoa and cookies while kids “check in” their stuffed animals for the evening. This will be followed by a story about stuffies, a parachute game, pillowcase craft, and another night time story before tucking in their stuffed animals for the night.
Children will be able to pick up their stuffed animals any time on Saturday and will receive a “Certificate of Achievement” and pictures of their stuffies’ nighttime shenanigans, along with their decorated pillowcase.
There is no cost for this program. To register, click “going” on the Facebook event page, or call the library at 814-486-8011. Please let us know of any food allergies/restrictions for your child upon registration so we can make sure there are snacks available for everyone to enjoy.
For questions about the program, call library staff at 814-486-8011 during the library’s regular business hours.
