1977 rst re e, 1a _— Ou ar Hom, © O° September 21, 1977 Storm rips into Marietta Marietta and Maytown felt the full force of a violent thunderstorm that ripped across Lancaster County Monday night. Wind speed hit 62 mph and 1.6 inches of rain fell. Power was cut off after a burning tree limb fell and entangled itself in power lines on Market Street in Marietta, creating an ex- tremely hazardous situation for firemen, PP&L linemen and passers-by. Power to the borough was cut off to enable repair crews to work safely. A falling tree smashed a parked truck on Front Street, three trees toppled across Fairview Ave., and an auction on Chestnut Street was disrupted. About 200 people at the Bike Rodeo at Seiler auction tried to take shelter from the rain in a large tent — then the wind began knocking down the tent. The crowd finally found shelter in a nearby building (and the auction was postponed — you can attend today between S and 10 PM). Winners of the Mount Joy Jaycee Bike Rodeo are shown with Jaycee president Jim Wetzel and Miss Mount Joy Joi Shearer. Winners are, from left to right; “ Andy Breault, winner of the grade 2 and under class; grades 3 & 4 class; and Bill Warner, winner of the grades 3 & 0 class. Harvest Days The life of the small farmers of early 19th Century Lancaster will be re-enacted at the Harvest days festival at the Landis Valley Farm Museum near Lancaster on October 1st and 2nd. More than 40 different crafts, chores, and activi- ties will be demonstrated, just as they were done 150 years ago. The demonstra- tions will start at 12:30 and run to 5:00 in the after- noon. Harvesting methods will ot course be shown, and also food processing, the making of clothing, equip- ment repairs, and winter storage methods. Besides all this, there will be a team of flintlock riflemen and two working steam tractors. (The steam trac- tors are acctually a product of the late 1800's, but they should be fun anyway.) Chicken corn soup will be available. Admission will be $1.00 for adults, free for kids under 12. Parking is free. 4 . ‘Amn cssssnsssnpppp rrp PPPoSPPRISEIRIIIIN wt 2% v0 the bike rodeo, shows how ass: Jill Stettler, winner of the nhoto by Tim Swarr Bill Warner, who won the grades S & 6 competition at he negotiated the difficult figure 8 section in the performance and handling division of the rodeo.
