It Doesn't Cost Much To Tour Europe Local Students Prove This Past Sutnmer Two adventurous Penn State seniors, Tim Strickier and Richard Reese, undertook a ten week educational European trip this past summer to observe “first hand” some of famous museums, art galleries, cathedrals and famous cities of Europe. The budget-minded students prepared a well planned itinerary themselves and utilized accomodations that were offered at -numerous hostels. A Eurail pass provided them with railroad transportation to wherever they wished to go and a special student card admitted them to the museums. Buses and trolleys also were used for “getting around.” Tim, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Slrieklcr, Lititz R4, and Richard, son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Reese, 649 E. Main Sl„ began their trip with a chartered jet flight from Kennedy Airport, N.Y. The flight had been arranged for the youth’s by authorities of the college. An account of the trip was f related by Tim. The first flight stop after leaving Kennedy Airport was at Shannon Airport in Ireland, where a four-hour delay was experienced. Their tour of London took them to see the Westminster Abby and Big Ben. The most unusual sight they saw was at Hyde Park Speaker’s Corner, a free speech area, where everyone was talking and singing at the same time.

This project was launched on August 22 and within the three-week period a total of 211.81 tons of macadam base material was put in place, rolled and reopened for public use. The total cost of this summer’s comparatively large street re-surfacing program comes to exactly $12,942.75, almost -exactly as previously estimated, Borough Manager George SteedJe announced. An important step in eliminating a mean storm water drainage problem, also was completed this week when work was finished1 on the drainage sewer along Maple Lane. This will drain water from the area in the vicinity of Alsam Shoe Company plant and carry it a total of 825 feet to Maple Street. For several years, storm water running down Maple Lane has created a bad situation at Orange -Street, especially 'during winter months when' the water would freeze Club Tours Local Sights A tour of the Moravian Church complex and the Linden Halt School for Girls highlighted the first meeting of the season for the Lititz Welcome Wagon Club, Tuesday. The tour of the Moravian Church was in charge of Mrs. Robert Posey, and John F. Mormon, Assistant Headmaster of Linden Hall conducted the tour through Linden Hall, Following the tour club (Continued on Page 5) and create a mean traffic hazard. Although carrying water underground, this drains adl but the parking lot at the Alsam plant where flood waters still must be pumped out occasionally. The water improvement program was progressing satis-factorially through the Springs Park. Instead Of a plan,. previously announced, the contractor, W. Robin,son Martin, Pitts-fcown Pa-,, decided last week not to dig up Broad Street in order to lay the new 12-inch main leading from the new wells to the borough pumping station, at this time. Insteal, the project was reversed and the main is being laid from the water plant eastward through the park. An unusual phase of the work of laying thte- main will be the drilling of an opening beneath the Reading Railway tracks to a point just east of the new Woodstream warehouse. Last week a huge excavation measuring 30 feet in length, seven feet wide and nearly ten feet deep was dug on the north side of the tracks. , .Yesterday ./a huge boring machine was lowered' into the excavation for the purpose of drilling beneath the tracks. A steel easing then will be put in place and the water main placed inside this. The matin will be 5Yz feet beneath the tracks. After crossing under the tracks the main will be laid beneath the stream'. The water already has been laid' from this point to Broad Street. Rotary Club Series To Start October 14 Police Probe Thefts Here A mild wave of lootings totaling less than $50 was rcnorled here last week, according to Chief of Police George Hicks. Breaking into Hen & Dave’s Bicycle Shop, East Main St. Saturday night, thieves obtained $7.00 in cash. Entrance was gained by breaking a window in the rear of the shop. The same night, the same amount of cash was reported stolen from Posey’s Garden Shop, North Broad St., although police could find no signs of forcible entry. A purse containing $20 in cash was reported stolen from a car in the Hershey & -Gibbei parking lot Monday afternoon. Eveline Longer, 330 W. Lemon St., Lancaster, informed police the car had been in the lot less than ten minutes when she returned and found the purse missing. fall garbage schedule EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1st The fall and winter garbage collection schedule of one collection per week will go into effect October 1, Borough Manager George Steedle announced this week. The collection will be made throughout the boro on Saturdays and residents are requested to place covered recepticles at the curb. The Lititz Rotary Club will present its fifth series- of travel and adventure series, including six internationally known world travelers, beginning .Saturday, October 14. The sale of tickets for the series of films and lectures started this week, George Ket-terman, ticket chairman-,. -am nounced. Tickets can be obtained from Ketterman1 or from any member of the club. For the first time, 'the film-narratives will be presented twice, at a matinee at 3 p.m. or in the evening -at 8 p.m.. in the Warwick High School Auditorium. The opening attraction, on October 14 will be presented by Joe Adair, one of the youngest of the group, who will show a youthful and fun-filled view of Norway and its many ‘Norwegian Panoramas.” The series will include the following additional attractions: Saturday, November 25, Jonathan Hague, who will show films of .Scotland.

Saturday, April 6, Robert Brouwer, “America—of Thee 1 Sing,” a spectacular travelogue on American sights. Saturday, April 27, James Metcalf, “Wings to Puerto Rico.” More Arrests Due To Fight Borough police this week started prosecutions against two local youths who allegedly participated in the teenage brawl which disrupted a Center dance here August 22. The two additional actions brought the total arrests as a result of the bra-w'l to eight. The two local youths scheduled to appear before Justice of the Peace Paul F. Diehm are Larry Marlin Geib, 19, 55 N. Broad St., and Donald Euigene Nessinger. 23, 519 Front St., both charged with disorderly conduct. Chief of Police George Hicks also announced that a charge of aggravated assault and battery against Tim Brown, has (Continued on Page 2) lie "Spirits" ef Warwick Township “A swig of Applejack a day will keep the doctor away” was more apt to be the slogan of our ancestors than the familiar one heard today. While corn and rye were among the first crops the German settlers planted after the forest was cleared, they lost no time in starting orchards. These were “cash crops” that could be sold by the “gallon” when necessary. Reference is made in the Royer Family History that during the 1730’s Sebastian Royer, who is credited with settling Brick-erville, “did a thriving business with the Indians, trading his famous ‘Ci-derlung’ ”, The Nanticokeswere then on a reservation nearby, adjoining the Brubaker and Eberly tracts. Before the still was available our first farmers would put down as much as fifty barrels of hard apple cider every fall. After the water content froze. the hard stuff would be removed and the demand was constant throughout the cold winter months. Grain whiskies were valued as medicines, While some of the old, reliable Indians’ remedies were soon adopted, they were seldom used without alcohol being added to increase their efficiency and these became our first patent medi cines. Alcohol was the only sedative available t h e n and practically everybody drank to some degree. They got. an early start, for peevish infants were often given a soothing mixture of Paregoric and spirits. The eye-opener was quite popular among e a r l y risers. Then there would be “lifts” and appetizers during the day, finally ending with a night-cap —'and all from the same jug. Grain was hard to transport to the city markets and oft times just as hard to keep from (Continued on Page 16) Owl Hill Road Job retested Residents Pull Out Stokes To Block Widening Plans for widening a two-mile stretch of the Owl Hill. Road oddly met with opposition this week when a number of residents proceeded to pull up stakes in front of their properties State Highway Department workers planned to start the project next week — and indicated the work will go ahead, providing they can get the stakes back in the ground again in lime. The state plans to widen Owl Hill Road from the intersection of 501 at Stauffer’s Market eastward to Brevity Lane, a distance of slightly less than two miles. The widening will consist of adding two feet, nine inches on each side of the present road. Opposition to the plan developed as soon as the stakes were put iri place by state engineers and apparently was based upon two different reasons. A number oi' houses along this road already are located only a few feet back from the road. Location of the stakes showed that the widened road will bring the road almost at the doorsteps of several homes. (Continued on Page 5) Honor Former Teacher L jb i Mis.

It Doesn't Cost Much To Tour Europe
Local Students Prove This Past Sutnmer
Two adventurous Penn State
seniors, Tim Strickier and Richard
Reese, undertook a ten
week educational European
trip this past summer to observe
“first hand” some of famous
museums, art galleries,
cathedrals and famous cities of
Europe.
The budget-minded students
prepared a well planned itinerary
themselves and utilized accomodations
that were offered
at -numerous hostels. A Eurail
pass provided them with railroad
transportation to wherever
they wished to go and a special
student card admitted them to
the museums. Buses and trolleys
also were used for “getting
around.”
Tim, son of Mr. and Mrs.

began their trip with a chartered
jet flight from Kennedy Airport,
N.Y. The flight had been
arranged for the youth’s by
authorities of the college.
An account of the trip was f
related by Tim. The first flight
stop after leaving Kennedy Airport
was at Shannon Airport in
Ireland, where a four-hour delay
was experienced.
Their tour of London took
them to see the Westminster
Abby and Big Ben. The most
unusual sight they saw was at
Hyde Park Speaker’s Corner, a
free speech area, where everyone
was talking and singing at
the same time. All the partici- ^ „
