Area Mail Boxes Bombed By Suspected T een-Agers Donald C. Coble. Owl Hill ftd., Lititz Ril, reported to Ephrata State Police last Thursday that his mail box had1 been blown up by some one unknown who had put a cherry bomb inside it. Ephrata Police said1 that they had referred the incident to postal authorities, and believed it to have been perpetrated by young people intent On committing malicious mischief. Postmaster Richard C. Rader, of the Lititz Post Office, said that investigation -is being made hy the inspection service of the U. S. Post Office Department. He said that -this offense is happening all the time, and apparently is -being committed by young people riding around in cars late at night who say “they don’t have anything to do.” 'He said -that some cases recently had- been Judy Buckwalter On Farm Journal Miss Judy Buckwalter, fifteen, daughter of Mr. and Mtrs David E. Buckwalter, Lititz R3, will serve on Farm Journal magazine’s Teen Board for the coming year.

Blood Donors Requested For Carol Kay Burns iB-lOod donors are being sought for Carol Kay Burns, four-year-old daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. Malcolm Burns, of Lititz. The Rev. Mr. Burns is pastor of the Holiness Christian Church here. It was discovered on September 14 that Carol Kay is suffering from leukemia. This was, the day after her fourth birthday. She was admitted to Lancaster General Hospital at that time for six days Yesterday she was; admitted again for another blood t-rans- 'usion. The parents would appreciate it if anyOne would be willing to donate blood for her. They live on North Lane; their telephone number is 626-0100, and their mailing address is Box 41, Lititz, Pa. reported to Manhei-m Township police by residents who have a Lititz address. While thus -far the-re have been no injuries, -apparently because the deeds were com-mited at night, it is highly possible that some might occur, it was pointed out. Many people go out to their mail box late at night to leave a letter for the carrier to take, and might just be opening the box when a bomb would go off. The bombs could1 cause eonsi-deraible injury When it is considered -that the boxes are usually blown to bits, as was the case at Cbble’s home. Postmaster Rader said1 that all incidents should be reported immediately to the police, in order to expedite the capture of the culprits, and if the patron does not report i-t, the Post Office will. He pointed out that -the res id-ent" has to pay for replacement or repair of bis mail box, and must suffer the inconvenience of not having his mail 'delivered -until the box is repaired. Quite a number of culprits have been caught, even as long as a month after their misdeeds. Rader said, so they should not expect to go undetected.

District #11 Three years in Japan as an educational -missionary teaching music has been a most rewarding experience for Lee Dumklle, who just returned home and is now teaching in Abraham Lincoln Junior High School, Lancaster. Dunkle was teacher of vocal mUiic and di-redtor of the G'iee Club af Warwick High School before he resigned in August, ¡1962, to go to Japan where be was sent by the United Church of Christ. He explained .that most missionary work nowadays is being done in the educational field, and the missionaries are full-flediged me'iribers of the school and college Staffs. He spent m'ost of his time teaching in the music department of Do-shls'h'a Women’s College »ait Kyoto, fifth largest city in Japan, with a population of 1,300,000, -which is about three and1 a ha Ilf hours from- Tokyo by the new superspee-d train. The Hast three months he t-aught English conversation in a co-ed school, Do stilish1 a Junior High. Both schools are part of a huge complex of 20,000 students who attend cla-s'se-s from kindergarten up to College graduate studies and Seminary. Many students get all their schooling there. Only a few of the Schools are eo-e-d, mioisit of them still remaining seiplaraited- for buys and girls. As-ke-d how the Japanese feel about the situation in tA)Eiia and the role of the United States In the Ear East, Dunk-le said that m-osit of them fee-1 kindly toward the United States, but sometimes resent the str-o-ng pressures exerted by the U. S., such as in money matters and big business. He- .stated there is- some resenitiment over -the U. S.’ continued1 control of Okinawa, Two of the borough’s Project 70 proposals were cancelled by Borough Council at its meeting Tuesday night, although they bad previously been approved by the State. These were the proposed Water conservation project west of the borou-gh, which would h-ave cost $160,000 for the purchase of 100 acres of land, and the project to create a recreational strip along the Lititz Springs Creek, to cost $13,000. The water conservation project was cancelled, it was explained, because Slate officials told borough and township officials at a meeting last week that She water shed covers a four square mile area coir-prising between 2,400 and 2,5'CO acres, so 100 acres would only be “a drop in the bucket.” After dropping the pro,posai, council put in a request to the State Department of Internal Affairs to make a survey of underground water sources in the borough in order to find a site for a new water -wel. This cou-ld possibly- be developed into a recreational area, as well as a new water site, so the 'area along the creek w'ould not be needed, they said. This new proposal very likely could come under Project 70. it was oointed out. Meanwhile, -the third Project 70 proposal, a storm drainage retention basin at Sutter Village to cost about $4,000, is still under consideration. In another action, Council said -Lt w-ould investigate the possibility of restricting parking on N, Cedar Street between Front Street and Lincoln Avenue to the west sid-e only. Members said they were concerned about the present two-side parking. They also will investigate the possibility of synchronizing traffic 'lights at The Square, Orange Street, and. Lincoln Avenue to facilitate the flow of traffic. The School district . asked Council to assist in resurfacing the parking lot at thé high school because of pool patrons using it during the summer. The district requested the borough pay 50 per certt of the cost or $3,430. Borough officials stated that under tihé original agreement bet/wéeii the s-oboal district and borough signed in 1961. the borough is liable only for repairs through improper usage- of the parking lot. Further, the borough d-i-d not include any money in its budget for this repaving. Thus, the request wii'1'1 have to be denied. iCoun-cil adopted1 a junkyard ordinance which will go into effect January 1, 1966, The ordinance requires that all jun-kyardis in the ¡borough will be required to erect concealing enclosures of evergreens or other materials, and that junk may not be pilled higher than the enclosures. Bach yard must have a separate license, according to provisions. In other action, council instructed its solicitor to investigate the legal aspects of its contract with the borough garbage collector. Action Was (Commuer! on Page 6) Lee Dunkle since it is -evident to them that the U. S. is keeping it not for development, but-only for defense purposes. They feel we should give i,t ba'ck, be s-a-id. M'an-y Japanese, he said, are oiplpo-seid to our being in Vietnam, not jusit for the sake of that country, but because they are afraid of wtetr, and want Peace 'ait almost any cost. Their plaint of view, he said, is based on the fact thtalt every major City in Japan, except Kyoto, was bomlbed and destroyed, where in contrast the U. S. hiais never experienced War on ills own land. He staid many people consider tih-e Japanese “naive,” ¡a-nd think there i-s “imisunderii'Jandiing,” bu,t thii-s is not the Case — “w-e just don’t see eye to eye.” Dunkle lived by Mmls-eiM in a .sim'altl -bungalow -in a Japanese neigihtbonhlo'od where he did alii Ms. own- work.

Blood Donors Requested For Carol Kay Burns iB-lOod donors are being sought for Carol Kay Burns, four-year-old daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. Malcolm Burns, of Lititz. The Rev. Mr. Burns is pastor of the Holiness Christian Church here. It was discovered on September 14 that Carol Kay is suffering from leukemia. This was, the day after her fourth birthday. She was admitted to Lancaster General Hospital at that time for six days Yesterday she was; admitted again for another blood t-rans- 'usion. The parents would appreciate it if anyOne would be willing to donate blood for her. They live on North Lane; their telephone number is 626-0100, and their mailing address is Box 41, Lititz, Pa. reported to Manhei-m Township police by residents who have a Lititz address. While thus -far the-re have been no injuries, -apparently because the deeds were com-mited at night, it is highly possible that some might occur, it was pointed out. Many people go out to their mail box late at night to leave a letter for the carrier to take, and might just be opening the box when a bomb would go off. The bombs could1 cause eonsi-deraible injury When it is considered -that the boxes are usually blown to bits, as was the case at Cbble’s home. Postmaster Rader said1 that all incidents should be reported immediately to the police, in order to expedite the capture of the culprits, and if the patron does not report i-t, the Post Office will. He pointed out that -the res id-ent" has to pay for replacement or repair of bis mail box, and must suffer the inconvenience of not having his mail 'delivered -until the box is repaired. Quite a number of culprits have been caught, even as long as a month after their misdeeds. Rader said, so they should not expect to go undetected.

District #11 Three years in Japan as an educational -missionary teaching music has been a most rewarding experience for Lee Dumklle, who just returned home and is now teaching in Abraham Lincoln Junior High School, Lancaster. Dunkle was teacher of vocal mUiic and di-redtor of the G'iee Club af Warwick High School before he resigned in August, ¡1962, to go to Japan where be was sent by the United Church of Christ. He explained .that most missionary work nowadays is being done in the educational field, and the missionaries are full-flediged me'iribers of the school and college Staffs. He spent m'ost of his time teaching in the music department of Do-shls'h'a Women’s College »ait Kyoto, fifth largest city in Japan, with a population of 1,300,000, -which is about three and1 a ha Ilf hours from- Tokyo by the new superspee-d train. The Hast three months he t-aught English conversation in a co-ed school, Do stilish1 a Junior High. Both schools are part of a huge complex of 20,000 students who attend cla-s'se-s from kindergarten up to College graduate studies and Seminary. Many students get all their schooling there. Only a few of the Schools are eo-e-d, mioisit of them still remaining seiplaraited- for buys and girls. As-ke-d how the Japanese feel about the situation in tA)Eiia and the role of the United States In the Ear East, Dunk-le said that m-osit of them fee-1 kindly toward the United States, but sometimes resent the str-o-ng pressures exerted by the U. S., such as in money matters and big business. He- .stated there is- some resenitiment over -the U. S.’ continued1 control of Okinawa, Two of the borough’s Project 70 proposals were cancelled by Borough Council at its meeting Tuesday night, although they bad previously been approved by the State. These were the proposed Water conservation project west of the borou-gh, which would h-ave cost $160,000 for the purchase of 100 acres of land, and the project to create a recreational strip along the Lititz Springs Creek, to cost $13,000. The water conservation project was cancelled, it was explained, because Slate officials told borough and township officials at a meeting last week that She water shed covers a four square mile area coir-prising between 2,400 and 2,5'CO acres, so 100 acres would only be “a drop in the bucket.” After dropping the pro,posai, council put in a request to the State Department of Internal Affairs to make a survey of underground water sources in the borough in order to find a site for a new water -wel. This cou-ld possibly- be developed into a recreational area, as well as a new water site, so the 'area along the creek w'ould not be needed, they said. This new proposal very likely could come under Project 70. it was oointed out. Meanwhile, -the third Project 70 proposal, a storm drainage retention basin at Sutter Village to cost about $4,000, is still under consideration. In another action, Council said -Lt w-ould investigate the possibility of restricting parking on N, Cedar Street between Front Street and Lincoln Avenue to the west sid-e only. Members said they were concerned about the present two-side parking. They also will investigate the possibility of synchronizing traffic 'lights at The Square, Orange Street, and. Lincoln Avenue to facilitate the flow of traffic. The School district . asked Council to assist in resurfacing the parking lot at thé high school because of pool patrons using it during the summer. The district requested the borough pay 50 per certt of the cost or $3,430. Borough officials stated that under tihé original agreement bet/wéeii the s-oboal district and borough signed in 1961. the borough is liable only for repairs through improper usage- of the parking lot. Further, the borough d-i-d not include any money in its budget for this repaving. Thus, the request wii'1'1 have to be denied. iCoun-cil adopted1 a junkyard ordinance which will go into effect January 1, 1966, The ordinance requires that all jun-kyardis in the ¡borough will be required to erect concealing enclosures of evergreens or other materials, and that junk may not be pilled higher than the enclosures. Bach yard must have a separate license, according to provisions. In other action, council instructed its solicitor to investigate the legal aspects of its contract with the borough garbage collector. Action Was (Commuer! on Page 6) Lee Dunkle since it is -evident to them that the U. S. is keeping it not for development, but-only for defense purposes. They feel we should give i,t ba'ck, be s-a-id. M'an-y Japanese, he said, are oiplpo-seid to our being in Vietnam, not jusit for the sake of that country, but because they are afraid of wtetr, and want Peace 'ait almost any cost. Their plaint of view, he said, is based on the fact thtalt every major City in Japan, except Kyoto, was bomlbed and destroyed, where in contrast the U. S. hiais never experienced War on ills own land. He staid many people consider tih-e Japanese “naive,” ¡a-nd think there i-s “imisunderii'Jandiing,” bu,t thii-s is not the Case — “w-e just don’t see eye to eye.” Dunkle lived by Mmls-eiM in a .sim'altl -bungalow -in a Japanese neigihtbonhlo'od where he did alii Ms. own- work.
