Literally. Luba Belcak, 532 Spring Ave., and her husband Michael, were at a New Year’s Eve party sponsored by the Lititz Area Jaycees being held at the Linden Hall dining hall when she heard a sound that she said could have easily been mistaken for a “champagne cork gone haywire.” “But I knew right away it was a shot,” Mrs. Belcak said. Two bullets pierced the window next to their table, one at floor level and one at about seven feet from the floor. The Belcak’s and their companions were showered with “ little bits of glass.” Mrs. Belcak said in the dark, it “looked like glitter.” Few of the 150 people at the party even knew that anything had happened until the police showed up, according to Linda Lowe a member of the Jaycee Women. The DJ was playing records, she said, and because the room in which the dance was held was “kind of divided into two sections,” the people on one side of the room didn’t even realize there was a problem. Then when they did, Mrs. Lowe said “at first everyone thought it was a rock.” But Mrs. Belcak said the investigating officer picked up a bullet from the floor. Donna Olah, the Jaycee Women member who was chairman of the dance said spirits of the Belcaks and their friends. Mrs. Belcak said because she and her husband were “getting ready to move to North Carolina” the night was a “ last night out with our friends,” that even a shower of glass powder couldn’t end it prematurely. “We were having a fun time,” Bingham said. Mrs. Belcak said the people at one table next to them did “ literally pick up their table and move it from the window six or seven feet, so we moved our table to their spot.” (Turn to Page 2) any concern among the ËiËliliiiiiiiiiilÉllIlIllI guests was alleviated when the police said they felt it was “ a random incident.” mb'- Mrs. Olah, said from the ■ ■ ■ ¡ ■ ¡ « 1 1 1 outside of the building, “you couldn’t see people inside — the windows were frosted over.” N ew Y e a r Tw ins Turn Two Lititz’s 1982 New Year twins Juliane (left) and Jessica Brown turned two years old on Sunday.
