In Lititz, customers voted 6 to 5 in favor of toll-free service. However, unreturned postal cards had to be counted as votes against toll-free service.

Blair, president of Denver and Ephrata, said that in accordance with the expressed desire of the customers toll charges on toll calls to Lancaster will be continued. However, she added, “growth and development in the area should intensify the communuity of interest between these D & E exchanges and Lancaster.

Lads Prowl All Night - AdmitThefts Borough Police received a call Monday night at 10:45 p.m. from residents of Linden St. that some one was prowling around the neighborhood. Officers Leroy Emmerick and James Fritz responded to the call and picked up a 13-year-old Lititz boy in the area who admitted he and two other boys were attempting to break into a vacant home on the street. The other two, both 15 years old, had fled and ridden on their bicycles to the far side of Manheim, but later returned to Lititz. At 3:30 a.m. they were picked up in the laundromat on East Main St. where they were sleeping. One of the 15-year-old boys admitted to breaking into the Ambuc’s refreshment stand in the Park and stealing $22. The three lads each told their parents they were sleeping with one of the other boys, but instead they were roaming around all night, Chief Hicks said. He urged parents to check their children more carefully. They are also being questioned about other incidents. The Ambucs’ refreshment stand was broken into on July 29, by forcing the hasp off the door. Potato chips and $25 in cash were stolen, police said. The same night some one climbed over the fence at the Lititz Springs Swimming Pool and broke into the ice cream cabinet, throwing some ice cream into the pool. A bicycle also was thrown into the pool. On July 30 the concession stand in Lititz Springs park run by Lester Bingeman was broken into, and three boxes of cigars, four dozen ice cream cups and six dozen popsicles were stolen. Goods were valued at about $30. The storage building at th* Lions playground was entered July 31, but apparently nothing was missing, Police said.
