Wilbur Chocolate Rejects Unfulfilled Contract Wilbur Acquisition of Travis Mills Property Collapses Dr. Bryon K. Horne and Sadie, his wife of 55 years, relax in front of the fireplace in their lovely home in Lititz. Both Dr. and Mrs. Horne are celebrating the 50th anniversary of the beginning of their ministry in Lititz. Delivers Message To People Of Lititz Dr. Horne Marks 50th Year In Moravian Ministry Here Word that the acquisition of the Travis Mills property by Wilbur Chocolate has collapsed was confirmed Tuesday by Fred McNab, attorney for MacAndrews- Forbes which has owned Wilbur Chocolate since 1968. “Certain conditions did not fulfill our requirements in the contract with FAB Industries which owns the Lititz Travis Mills property and we declined to close on the property,” McNab stated. “We could re-commence negotiations,” McNab said, emphasizing the “ could” , but he refused to comment on whether or not that seemed likely, or on the future expansion plans for Wilbur Chocolate. MacAndrews-Forbes is an in d ire c t wholly-owned su b s id ia ry of Cohen- Hatfield, a wholesale/retail jewelry distributor. At the time of the 1981 Cohen-Hatfield/MacAndrews-F-orbes merger, expansion plans previously announced by Wilbur were taken under review with what Wilbur president John A. Buzzard then referred to as “an aggressive feeling for internal renovations. ’ ’ In the early summer of this year when the intent to buy the Travis Mills property was announced, Buzzard said that the space at the 48 N. Broad St., location limited expansion and that Wilbur hoped tc move into the West Lincoln Avenue location as soon as possible after closing. The projections called for use of the 190,000 square feet of West Lincoln Avenue to be used by Wilbur first as warehouse sp a c e and eventually to house a confectionary production unit. Wilbur secured the first step approval from LIDA to raise $3 million for the expansion into the Travis Mills property through the sale of t a x - f r e e in d u s t r ia l development revenue bonds. Final approval would have come when the bonds were ready to be sold, and at the same time the term and interest rate would have been set. According to information from the LIDA office in L anca s te r, once LIDA-approved financing has collapsed, the applicant must start over at the “first step” and reapply for LIDA approval. McNab declined to list the specific conditions that had not been met to fulfill the Wilbur/Travis Mills (FAB Idustries) contract. Travis Mills was acquired by FAB Idustries in 1979 and in September 1981 closed its Lititz operation, idling 168 workers. The property has been vacant since then. At the time of the Travis Mills closing, Samson Bitensky remarked in an interview that the Travis Mills Lititz plant would eventually be sold. The plant was one of the largest Lititz-area employers Wilbur’s expansion into the Travis property would have created about 20 new jobs according to reports at the time of the LIDA financing approval, with a possibility of that growing to 50 jobs. Restored By Farmers First Bank Johann Augustus Sutter House Named To National Register Orientation Scheduled There will be an orientation program for students new to the Warwick Middle School on Tuesday, Aug. 31, at 9 a.m. New Middle School students should report to the auditorium at this time. Ambulance Crew Delivers First Baby Tuesday night was an exciting time for the Warwick Ambulance Association Three of its crew members - H y la M ow r e r , N e a l Reichard and Judy Henkel - delivered the association’s first baby. At 11:21 p.m., Mrs. Gail Graham, wife of Barry Graham with the help of the crew members gave birth to her secqnd child - a beautiful baby girl weighing in at 6 lbs., 12 ounces. Mr. and Mrs. Graham live at 508 N. Water St., Lititz. After the delivery was completed, the Warwick Ambulance transported mother and baby to Lancaster General Hospital. The Johann Augustus Sutter House located in Lititz, has been named to the National Register of Historic Places. The Register is kept by the United States Department of Interior and is the official list of the Nation’s cultural re so u r c e s worthy of preservation. It includes properties significant in Architecture, American H is to ry , A rch a eo lo g y , Culture, and those embodying the p re ciou s heritage of the United States of America.

The house is already on the Pennsylvania Inventory of Historic Flaces. The house, located within the community’s historic district at 19 East Main Street, was renovated and restored by Farmers First Bank in 1980. Sutter’s house is adjacent to the administrative offices of the bank and was purchased in 1974 with a view to further expansion.
