The Mahoning Township Board of Supervisors Wednesday night named Bruce Keiper to serve the balance of the term of supervisor Donald Walters, who resigned last month.

Keiper, formerly of Lehighton, resides at 579 Seneca Road. He retired from Mack Trucks, Allentown, after 18 years, seven as a supervisor, and previously served on the Lehighton Area School District Board of Directors.

Two other persons, Richard Hughen and Francis Bowman, were applicants for the position.
