Spruce St. Several years ago, Viggo Olsen was a guest of the Rannels family when he was an exchange student at Warwick High. School, and he invited Cathy to visit his family in Norway. So, this summer, Cathy flew to London where Viggo met her. They toured London four-days, then flew to Bergen in Norway where they stayed a few more days. From Bergen to Oslo by train was a scenic-filled trip for Cathy, with many waterfalls and a stop at beautiful Flam. After spending a day in Oslo, they took another train to Trondheim, where they embarked on a coastal .steamer to Boda. On this trip Cathy and .her. companions saw the fjords for which Norway is famous. At Harstad, they stayed with some - of Viggo’s relatives, then got back on the steamer to Oks-fjord. , - Viggo’s family met her there and took her to Alta, th eir. home, where she stayed* eight weeks. Then, she went back to Oslo for a week. From there, she flew, to London and then home. Her trip was made by Penn State chartered flight. Although she knew very lit- -A ’ r m Æsyv ...

Hikes, fishing trips and a visit to Finland and Sweden were among the highlights of her stay in Norway. One side trip took them to North Cape, the Northernmost part of Europe. “There were no. roads; we had to take the ferry,” Cathy explained. They visited Kautokaino where the Lapps come to spend the summer. They also drove into Finland, which isn’t too far away from the Olsen home, and from there (Continued on Page S) manly intended to bring -the two new authority members up to date on the plans. Greenlund said there will he another two months of surveying before the results will be put on -paper. In his comments, Kingcaid had indicated an earlier date for the final drawings. Kingcaid said he 'was hoping for the final plans in about -two months, but Greenlund indicated -his firm can’t have all the data by that time. Water Source Asked about the water source for the new system, Kingcaid said plans are to get the water from Lititz Borough on a bulk basis. The authority has a written agreement that the borough will supply water -on this basts, Kingcaid said. Asked if the borough has enough water to meet me Township’s needs, Kingcaid recalled that -the borough about tii.ee years ago drilled two new wells in -the area of the present ber-toma Park. -Based on tests made then, just -one of these wens ■would meet the -township’s needs, he said. The feasibility study showed -that even with 1,600 customers the township’s ■ water needs would toe -only 448,000 gallons per day, whereas one of the two borough wells would supply 500,000 gallons a day. The feasibility study showed only 1,020 customers initially for the new system. “Water supply isn’t.seen as a problem at all,” Kingcaid said. An agreement will have to be reached with the borough on the price of the water, Kingcaid indicated. George Steedle, borough manager, said only six properties in Warwick Township now have borough water. On the subject -of maintenance oi the Warwick water system, Kingcaid said it could be handled in various ways. The -authority could sublet the maintenance to -the borough 'or the township. Kingcaid said the engineers have been in Warwick Township for the past month locating bench marks. .These are the basic marks established by the federal government and used in surveying. The firm will be doing aerial -photography and mapping after the leaves are off, Kingcaid said. Future Timetable Kingcaid said it is hoped -the Outlining the future timetable, engineer will lay out the details, down to the location -of tire hydrants,” within a couple of months. Firm cost figures are also expected within two months and it is hoped the project will' be out for bids by Spring. The lines are slated to be laid by next Summer. Although Warwick Township isn’t considered a poverty area, the Authority is seeking federal funding for the project and there are “still some possibilities./’ Kingcaid said. Past Action A Citizens Water Committee was created about four years ago by the township supervisors and in 1968, Tracy Engineering was authorized to proceed with a feasibility study. In May 1969, the authority was created. In August, the authority authorized the Lemoyne firm to proceed with the design for the new -water system. \ Greenlund said his firm has been active in designing water and sewer work all over Pennsylvania including: sewage treatment plant for Mariett-a-Donegal Lititz Borough Collects'$36,715 From Occupational Privilege Tax, Starts Getting 1971 Budget Data Lititz Borough has collected $36,715 from the $10 occupational privilege -tax so far in 1970, George Steedle, borough manager, said this week. Steedle said he anticipates the collections will come to about the $38,500 budget figure toy year-end. The tax is in its second year. Last year, the borough collected $37,390. Commenting on the overall budget situation, Steedle said he anticipates that both the borough’s income - and - expenditures will just about match the budget figures for the year. The borough went into the year with a relatively small surplus of about $2,000. , It’s still much -too early to begin projecting the 1971 budget, however, Steedle said. Steedle the neve budget. - Steedle said it will probably be late -November before alb the data is drawn together for a meaningful discussion of the new budget, is beginning preliminary work -on drawing together figures for joint authority: sewage collection system tor Marietta Borough : Atglen (Chester County) Borough sewer system;: Hatfield Township in Montgomery County sewer project, a $5 million -project which just got underway, and water systems -in Cumberland and Perry counties.

The feasibility study showed only 1,020 customers initially for the new system. “Water supply isn’t.seen as a problem at all,” Kingcaid said. An agreement will have to be reached with the borough on the price of the water, Kingcaid indicated. George Steedle, borough manager, said only six properties in Warwick Township now have borough water. On the subject -of maintenance oi the Warwick water system, Kingcaid said it could be handled in various ways. The -authority could sublet the maintenance to -the borough 'or the township. Kingcaid said the engineers have been in Warwick Township for the past month locating bench marks. .These are the basic marks established by the federal government and used in surveying. The firm will be doing aerial -photography and mapping after the leaves are off, Kingcaid said. Future Timetable Kingcaid said it is hoped -the Outlining the future timetable, engineer will lay out the details, down to the location -of tire hydrants,” within a couple of months. Firm cost figures are also expected within two months and it is hoped the project will' be out for bids by Spring. The lines are slated to be laid by next Summer. Although Warwick Township isn’t considered a poverty area, the Authority is seeking federal funding for the project and there are “still some possibilities./’ Kingcaid said. Past Action A Citizens Water Committee was created about four years ago by the township supervisors and in 1968, Tracy Engineering was authorized to proceed with a feasibility study. In May 1969, the authority was created. In August, the authority authorized the Lemoyne firm to proceed with the design for the new -water system. \ Greenlund said his firm has been active in designing water and sewer work all over Pennsylvania including: sewage treatment plant for Mariett-a-Donegal Lititz Borough Collects'$36,715 From Occupational Privilege Tax, Starts Getting 1971 Budget Data Lititz Borough has collected $36,715 from the $10 occupational privilege -tax so far in 1970, George Steedle, borough manager, said this week.

Commenting on the overall budget situation, Steedle said he anticipates that both the borough’s income - and - expenditures will just about match the budget figures for the year. The borough went into the year with a relatively small surplus of about $2,000. , It’s still much -too early to begin projecting the 1971 budget, however, Steedle said.
