ation awards
Several weeks ago, at the end of the school term, the Donegal Coaches’ Association
awarded their scholarships to deserving students. This the second annual awards.
The students each received $200 toward his or her continuing education at an
institute of higher learning. The photo above shows, standing behind, coaches
Dennis lezzi on the left, and Jim Metzler on the right. Dennis is the president of
the Donegal Coaches Association, and Jim is chairman of the scholarship commit-
tee. In the front are the recipients of the awards, chosen on the basis of financial
need, attitude, and letters of recommendation. They are, from the left: Phyllis
Shope, who is headed for studies in Medical Technology at E-town College; Jake
Sherk, who plans to become a chémist at Juniata College; and Loris Raber, going to
Clarion State for Elementary Education. The Times apologizes to all concerned for
the late appearance of this photo, which should have been in three weeks ago.
Mount Joy
water supply
will be discussed
at meeting
The Susquehanna River
Basin Commission, meeting
at 1:00 p.m., on July 14,
1977, at the Penn Harris
Motor Inn, Camp Hill, will
be followed by a public
hearing on municipal water
supply proposals to develop
groundwater by the Mount
Joy Borough Authority.
The hearing will be held to
receive pertinent testimony
for the local sponsors and
interested parties concern-
ing the proposed develop-
ment and potential impacts
on the water and related
resources of the basin.
The principal areas of
interest upon which the
Commission is basing its
review of the projects are
demand projections; avail-
ability of enough water to
satisfy future needs; and
efficient utilization of avail-
able water supplies.
The application docu-
ments filed by the project
sponsors are available for
public inspection during
regular business hours at
the office of the Susque-
hanna River Basin Com-
mission, S012 Lenker
Street, Mechanicsburg, PA
170SS. The offices are open
to the public from 8:00
a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday
through Friday.
Persons wishing to parti-
cipate in the hearing may
present oral and/or written
testimony. Those wishing
to testify in person are
requested to contact the
Secretary to the Commis-
sion, in writing, prior to
the hearing.
The Lancaster YMCA is
in the process of extending
its services to the Donegal
District and other areas of
Lancaster County.
Since Lancaster County
is serviced by only one
YMCA Center, this facility
alone is not capable of
housing activities for a
comprehensive county-wide
program. Therefore, in co-
operation with the Donegal
School District, YMCA
programs are going to be
brought to the Mount Joy'
—Marietta area.
To insure a responsive
program and quality lea-
dership for all ages of men
and women, we are urging
interested people to com-
plete the survey form and
return it to Mr. Scott
Underkoffler, -. Community
Extension Director of the
Lancaster YMCA, S572
North Queen Street, Lan-
caster, PA 17603.

William Randolph Hearst once said,
July 13, 1977
“Show me a
publication that has a picture of a baby, a pretty girl,
and a dog on it, and I'll show you a publication that
sells.”” We at the Times agree. The photo above shows,
not a still from star wars, but a scene outside the
Tastee-Freez at 454 W. Main St., Mount Joy. The giant
creature is actually Bill Dommel of 114 S. Market St.,
Mount Joy, who was hired to wave at people outside the
Tastee-Freez. This is his first experience with dog
impersonation, and he told us that he was enjoying it.
“It’s fun to wave at people and have them wave back,"
he said. Standing on the right is Roma Gardner, also of
Mount Joy, who was baby-sitting Paul, center.

PP&L loophole
—can make your bills easier to handle
Pennsylvania Power &
Light Company requires
that all bills be paid on
time or they will assess a
delayed payment charge.
However, they now will
allow one loophole.
Under a new policy,
shaped to help older people
meet their electric bills
without paying the delayed
payment charge, people on
Social Security or a similar
pension can have their
payment date extended. If
the due date on the electric
bill falls between the 21st
of one month and the Sth
of the next month, no late
charge needs to be assess-
ed until the 6th of the
month.
This allows a person
whose major source of
income is his Social Secur-
ity check, the option of
paying the electric bill out
of his next month’s check.
That way he is less likely to
run low on money for food
or other necessities. It also
avoids the late charge for
people who may not be
able to pay the bill until
they receive the next Social
Security check.
However, the program
does not go into effect
automatically. To qualify, a
person must fill out an
application form giving his
name, address, PP&L cus-
tomer number and verifi-
cation of his Social Security
or other pension. To date
only about 400 people have
signed up even though the
program is of potential
value to many of the senior
citizens of Lancaster
County.
If you would like to sign
up for the Extended Due
Date Program, you can get
an application form from
PP&L, 1701 Manheim Pike,
Lancaster, Pa. or Lancaster
County Office of Aging, 50
N. Duke St. Lancaster, Pa.

Letter
Dear Editor,
Susquehanna Country had
ripe tomatoes in Mount Joy
last week. Sorry to say your
informant from Mount Joy
was misinformed or didn’t
make a very thorough
check. The first ripe tomato
was picked June 18 at 214
W. Donegal St. The follow-
ing Thursday (June 23) a
bushel was picked to sell at
Columbia Market.
Better ‘‘check’’
time!
