movement. Leader is a York coun
ty poultry farmer.
“The Democrats have said that
we don’t need a sales tax,” Mack
ey said, “and that is true. As a
Republican-sponsored measure,
they try to say that the sales tax
is the bulwark of Pennsylvania’s
public school system. Nonsense,
rubbish!”
The tax .legislation specifies
that all revenue from the sales
tax be used for the public schools,
he explained. But instead of go
ing directly to the public schools,
it goes into a general fund, Mack
ey said.
From this general fund, he said,
are drawn the finances which
support the school system. He
pointed out that the sales tax
makes up only 15 to 20 per cent
of the general fund.
“We don’t have to have a par
ticular tax,” Mackey stated em
phatically.
Citing the “success” of Leader’s
gubernatorial campaign, Mackey
said that the Republicans are
throwing everything at the Demor
crats they can get their hands on.
The club will meet at 7 tonight
in. 217 Willard to elect officers
and set up an executive commit
tee.
Nittany Lion
Rides Again?
Various reports of strange ani
mals .in the area spring up from
year to year. They sprang again
yesterday. >
Reports of * a strange animal
started about a year ago when a
lamb was slaughtered in Nittany
Valley by some clawed animal.
Then other residents of the area
in southern Centre County re
ported seeing a black panther on
the prowl.
For the past two weeks several
families have been hearing
strange wails and cries late in the
evening. One evening the noise
continued for about five minutes.
Some of the residents have ad
vanced theories that it might be
a he-bear.
