HONORED BY PLAYERS ' " ^ 1 Doubles Water Capacity Work Being Completed To Bring Many Benefits Lester Bingeman Dr. Joseph 111. (¿rush Dr. Horne Impressed By Spirit Of Constitutional Convent ion There Is every incilcadi.on that Pennsylvania's first conTitu-ti'O'nal convention im 94 years is going to come up wul-h a lasting document which will stand the rigors of time, Dr. 'Byron K. Horne, Lindeni Hall hradmaher and delegate to the convenuioin, declared this week as the group completed its . first ten days in Harrisburg. Dr. Horne is playing a busy and. active role in the1 work of the constitutional convention. On Monday afternoon he served ais chaplain and addressed the assemblage. Last week he also began his work as a member of the committee on 'local government, one in which his experience as a borough councilman Cor several terms is proving of considerable value. Another Lititzite was prominently active in the opening sessions of the convention last week when State Senator Richard Snyder addressed the convention and 'brought it the greetings of the state 'assembly. “1 have never been a member of a more dedicated and sincere group than those who have as- (Continued on Page 4) Dr. livron K. Horne Students Win District Honors Boro Feels Collector Earns Pay There’s a bit more to collecting borough taxes than walking to the bank, Borough Manager George Steedle explained this week as his office was beseiged with an avalanche of applications . for the appointment of borough tax collector. Borough council will meet Monday evening at 7:30 p.m. to consider appointing a successor to Raymond Reedy, who is resigning due to becoming county treasurer. While the tax bills are made out by the data processing concern at Lemoyne, Pa., used by the county tax bureau, at the borough’s expense, the bills are mailed by the collector. “But,” the borough manager pointed out this week, “that is only a small part of the job. The tax collector has to accept both cash and checks and must balance out this with the tax duplicate. a real tough job. “The tax collector also has to submit a statement to the borough each month. But, the tougher aspect of the job is handling the per capita collections,” Mr. Steedle explained. “A lot of people feel they should be exonerated and it is up to the collector to fill out forms for them to be submitted to borough council. “Yes,” Steedle concluded, “I disagree that the job is an easy one and think the collector earns every penny he gets.” Should council fail to make an appointment, borough taxes will be collected directly by the borough. This was the plan proposed originally a few years ago when s p e c i a l bookkeeping equipment was purchased and the tax collector’s pay was reduced from a scale of two and five per-cent to a flat one-half of one per-cent.
