Wayne Gainer, a borough employe, stands in front of one of the many piles of salt and calcium standing idle in the borough garage, waiting the onslought of ice and snow which thus far has evaded Lititz except for one day a week ago. But who cares? With the kind of weather we’ve been having, it looks as though the borough may be able to save a lot of the $3000 it has set aside for snow removal. On the other hand, maybe it won’t! The groundhog only knows for sure, and he won’t tell ’til February 2. There is about ten tons of the stuff on hand, and four snowplows rarin’ to go at the first sign of a snow flake. ________________ School Menu MONDAY Grilled holt dog, glazed carrots, buttered potatoes, -peaches, roll, (butter, ¡m-iiik.

For Farm Show Wins
IF WINTER EVER COMES . . the borough will be ready! Wayne Gainer, a
borough employe, stands in front of one of the many piles of salt and calcium
standing idle in the borough garage, waiting the onslought of ice and snow which
thus far has evaded Lititz except for one day a week ago. But who cares? With
the kind of weather we’ve been having, it looks as though the borough may be
able to save a lot of the $3000 it has set aside for snow removal. On the other
hand, maybe it won’t! The groundhog only knows for sure, and he won’t tell ’til
February 2. There is about ten tons of the stuff on hand, and four snowplows
rarin’ to go at the first sign of a snow flake. ________________
