It almost seemed like the big leagues, as the crowds in the stands waited for the rain to clear and the game to begin. Anxious faces, hands, and jumpy feet in either dugout made those in the stands aware of the pressure for each team. In this tournament, the teams were separated by their records: teams with winning records were in one bracket, and the remaining teams were in the second nervous bracket. The winner of each bracket played for the tournament championship. The score remained 0 to 0, until the top of the fourth inning when the A’s scored 3 runs. When the Phillies came to bat in the bottom of the fourth, they scored five runs on a base hit, three walks, and a triple. The Phils scored 3 more runs in the bottom of the fifth, making the score 8 to 3. No runs were scored in the sixth inning, leaving the final score of this championship game 8 to 3, in favor of the Phillies. Following the game, both teams received trophies for the championship and for Mark | Huss, Tony Floso:s, os d Matt Blasick; back row, Brett Hamm, Rick Weisa, Bret Graybill, Chris Tompkins, and Brian Pickell.

August 1, 1979 Letter to Editor Dear Editor, I feel someone must write in support of the kids from Maytown. There are com- plaints about them sitting in the square. They sit there and talk or listen to a radio. They aren’t hurting anyone by doing this. The kids had a baseball program but baseball sea- son’s over. Our teams didn’t - always win but it wasn’t because they didn’t try. Our kids never gave up, and we are proud of you. Our family attended games for every team whenever we could. Unfortunately, at some of the games we were the only spectators from Maytown. It was sad seeing our kids play for the empty stands while most of the other teams had full stands. Baseball is over now and once again there is ‘‘nothing to do.”” The M.Y.O. is a really good organization, and is trying to get winter activities going for our kids. With your help we can make this a great organization and make this program work for our kids. They already have the help and support of the kids who are willing to work for this program. Why not come out to the next M.Y.0. meeting and give them your support. If you can’t come for a really good reason, they will understand. But if you just don’t want to bother, please don’t complain about our kids sitting in the square. The next meeting is August 6 at 8:30. Sincerely, Janet Mann Rhythm Express and Champayne Jam to play at Maytown carnival Rhythm Express and Champayne Jam will play at the Maytown Fire Carnival, to held September 14 and 1S.

Mount Joy Jaycees will wash your car on August 11 The Mount Joy Jaycees are planning a car wash at the Florin Fire Co., North Market Avenue, Mount Joy, on Saturday, August 11th, from 8:00 to 5:00 PM. The original date, set several weeks ago, was rained out. The car wash is used to raise money for the many projects which benefit the community of Mount Joy. Vacuuming, car washing and window cleaning are included in the price of $2.50 for cars, $5 for small trucks and $10 for Winne- bago campers. The rain date is set for September 15. Handkerchief factory will not be turned into townhouses The Mount Joy Zoning Board has denied a request by Peifer Brothers of Elizabethtown to convert the old abandoned handkerchief factory at 125 Mount Joy Street, into apartments and townhouses. The request was denied on grounds that the townhouses and apartments would not be harmonious with the area, which is zoned for medium density. Neighbors were worried about crowding in the nearby alleys. The zoning board also denied a request by Harold Keller, to build a house in a lot in the 200 block of North Market Ave; the proposed house would not leave a sufficient yard on the side. Kurt Wageman’s request to build a swimming pool at 51S Creekside Lane was approved. FT REE: i Nal A am BA bed am id Zl AA A AA ad ARC HOBSON MM TY OAM ra id ie Ae bd bad MN bed bod -— ob bd F_
