DID YOU HEAR
Jack W.W. Loose, DHS
social science and history
teacher, was the subject of a
recent article in the Millers-
ville State College Alumni
Review. The article, cover-
ing two pages, listed his
many honors and activities,
discussed his tastes in
music, and quoted his
explanation of how he
accomplishes so much—
“I'm not married,” said
Jack. ‘‘“While you married
men devote 24 hours each
day to your wives... I can go
about serving the commun-
ity.”’
He
Dr. Francis Ferguson,
professor of regional plan-
ning at Capitol Campus,
Penn State, and a resident
of Maytown, will adress the
Rotary Club of Mount Joy on
August 21.
How to protect
Mount Joy home
during vacation
The Mount Joy Police
remind all borough citizens
that in order to make the
“Vacation House Check”
program effective, home-
owners must observe the
following guidelines:
1. You must request a
police vacation watch of
your home in person at the
Borough Offices by talking
with a police officer or
secretary.
If no policeman or
secretary is at the office, an
officer can be summoned by
calling the Lancaster County
Police Radio Communica-
tions Center at 653-1457.
2. A form must be filled
out in its entirety, signed, a
dated by the homeowner.
You can discuss any special
circumstances with the
police officer.
3. You must file your
request no less than 48
hours before you leave on
vacation, and no more than
one week beforehand.
4. You should call the
police at once when you get
home, by calling the
Communications Center
number given above (this
line is manned 24 hours a
day, every day). Informing
the police of your return is
important to to avoid an
unexpected confrontation
with the police when you
return early. By having the
Vacation Watch cancelled
by the homeowner on his or
her return, the police can
keep watching houses until
the owners return, even if
they are away longer than
planned.
Your cooperation in this
program will make it work
smoothly.
Rain doesn’t faze BPW
A late afternoon thunder-
storm was over and gone by
5:30 PM on Monday, July
23, when the BPW of Mount
Joy held a summer outing at
the South Market Avenue
“home of club member Betty
Groff.
Swimming, cards, and
bingo were enjoyed before
and after the 7:00 o’clock
buffet-style supper served
on the porches of the Groff
home.
Virginia Horst offered
prayer to begin the meal of
Cornish hen, seasonal sum-
mertime vegetables and
desserts, iced tea, and
coffee. Debbie Brooks play-
ed accordian music through-
out the the evening. The
amplification system made
the accordian sound like an
electric organ. This occa-
sion, catered by the Groffs
with some help from several
club members, was arrang-
ed by past president Yvonne
Koser.
Recently appointed com-
mittees are now preparing
for the 1979-80 BPW year in
cooperation with president
Lillian Fry and- vice-presi-
dent Ada Thompson.
The BPW will sponsor its
annual Candle Light Tour on
November 18. The club will
be glad to accept offers from
persons who are willing to
open their homes for the
tour. Application may be
made by calling Diane Rice
at 653-4240 or
Lambert at 653-1258 or
Nancy Sprecher at 653-4193.
These people will refer your
name to the finance commit-
tee and a personal visit will
be arranged to discuss the
procedures and standards
the club uses and maintains
in conducting the tour.
The National Covention of
BPW was held in Boston
from July 23 to July 27.
President Fry attended and
will report on activities there
at the September meeting.
