TWO NEAR DEATH
AS BOAT UPSETS,
MOUNT JOY MAN'S PAL RES
CUED IN SUSQUEHANNA AF-
TER DRIFTING ON AN OVER-
TURNED CRAFT
Two
drowning
men narrowly escaped
in the Susquehanna river,
made treacherous by high water,
below Columbia last Wednesday
when the speed boat in which they
were riding upset while traveling at
a speed of approximately 30 miles an
hour and then drifted through the
rapids at the side of the old dam
with the pair astride the bottom.
The men, Walter Nissley, of this
boro, owner of the bpat, and George
Chalfant, of Columbia, were making
a test spin when the craft upset.
Making a number of dizzying circles
Chalfant, who was steering, execut-
ed a turn too sharply and the boat
upset. Nissley was thrown clear but
Chalfant, less fortunate, was struck
when it ‘overturned and dazed. Niss-
ley swam to Chalfant’s aid and man-
aged to get him astride the boat.
Meanwhile persons who witnessed
the accident watched helplessly as
the men drifted through the treach-
erous rapids at the old dam where
they were seen by rivermen who
went to their rescue near Groom's
Landing. The boat was saved prac-
tically undamaged.

APPROVES PLANS
MOUNT JOY CAN GO AHEAD
WITH ITS FILTER PLANT
AND NEW !STORAGE TANK,
SAYS THE DEPARTMENT
o ————
The Secretary of Health today
issued a permit to the borough of
Mount Joy, Lancaster county, ap-
proving the installation of a mod-
ern filter plant and of a new stor-
age tank.
This borough has its own muni-
cipal waterworks and uses the little
Chickies Creek as a source of wa-
ter supply with chlorine disinfec-
tion as a safeguard. This precau-
tion, however, for some time has
been® considered to be insufficient
for the type of water used.
In 1921 the Department of
Health approved plans for a fil
tration plant, which however, was
never constructed. Last November
at the general election , the borough
approved a_bond issue for $60,000
to defray the cost of the new
plant, to cover the construction of
the new storage tanks and to allow
for some extensions to the distrib-
uting system. This plant will have
a nominal capacity of 800,000 gall-
ons daily with the average daily
consumption in the town at pres-
ent approximately 250,000 gallons.

No Sunday Base Ball
By a vote of 101 to 99 the House of

A Superior Court Judge
Says Sunday Golf Legal

Judge William H. Keller, of the
Superior Court of Pennsylvania, of
Lancaster, declared that Pennsyl-
vania’s so called Blue law, the act
of 1794, is “much more elastic than
many of its opponents think.” in an
Address at the annual dinner of the
laymen of the Reformed church of
that district at Pittsburgh
“The present law is not “unduly
restrictive, and this old law is not

half so blue, not half so rigorous,
and not half so forbidding as many
think,” he asserted.
Judge Keller said there is nothing
in the act fo prohibit Sunday golf or
a quiet game of baseball if these ac-
tivities did not interfere with divine
worship. He said he did not believe
that one in a thousand of those who
are urging repeal or amendment of
this law have ever read it.

LEAGUE SEASON MAY 16—FIRST |
GAME HERE SATURDAY.
The Mount Joy base ball club has
entered the eight club circuit in the
Lancaster County League and will op-
en the season Saturday, May 16.
This fact became known too late for
the management to take the boys on
a Spring training trip to some south-
ern city, but with almost daily prac-
tice here, and a few pre-season
clashes with strong opponents, they
expect to be in shape for the opening
game.
There are a large number of local
players trying for various positions on
the team. With keen competition all
the players are doing their best and
the management should be able to se-
lect a good team from this large list
of candidates.
The games will be played on the
Recreation Grounds and the first prac-

here Saturday, April 25 with Sporting
