Landisville Bus
Fare Protested
By 21 Residents
Bus fares and service on the
Elizabethtown line of CTC were
criticized in a protest made Thurs-
day by twenty-one residents of the
Marietta Pike area.
The protest was lodged in the
form of a letter to the Public Util-
Commission at Harrishurg,
Kendig C. Bare and the
ities
Mayor
CTC.
Service is too infrequent and the
rates are out of line with other
comparable the fare
boost, the objectors say.
Text of the letter:
We, the undersigned, as custom-
ers of the Constoga Transportation
Company and in particular users of
the Elizabethtown bus route, wish
to point out several facts and make
protest as follows:
“(1) The fare to a point four miles
from the square has been raised to
18 cents and correspondingly for all
other stops. Going Fast on either
the Mellinger’s Church or Leaman
Place buses, why is it possible te go
for a distance much farther than
four miles, for a city token?
“(2) The population has increased
sufficiently on the Marietta Pike,

Yellow-Crowned
Night Heron Is
Nesting In Co.
A yellow crowned night heron,
seldom found farther north than
North Carolina, has been discover-
ed nesting in Lancaster County.
Mrs. J. W. Bingeman, 340 Donegal
Springs Road, Mount Joy, made the
discovery at her favorite bird
watching spot, along the Little
Chicques Creek, southeast of town. |
The local lady, a member of the
Lancaster Bird Club, said she reec-
ognized the bird as a yellow crown-
ed night heron last April 29 from
“similiar birds seen in Florida last
Winter.
In April, she said, the female
bird was sitting on the nest in the
branches of a walnut tree and on
June 12 she found two young birds
in the nest. She indicated there
must have been two sets of eggs
laid with the first eggs being des-
troyed either by crows or by heavy
rainstorms, since the incubation
period is only 26 days.
There is no record of any of these
birds ever nestingg in Pennsylvania
although the black-crowned night
heron, which similar can be
found in some sections of the coun-
ty such as White Oak Dam, near
Manheim.
The rare bird, Mrs. Bingeman
said, is gray with a yellowish-white
crown on its head. Usually the bird
is found along the ocean inlets, ac-
cording to Mrs. Bingeman, who al-
so indicated that she believes this
is only the third time such a bird
has ever been seen in Pennsylva-
nia,

This is the third of a series of
essays written bv Ninth Graders

My topic is “Extra-Curricular
Activities in a Larger School.” I

the ectivities which we now have

with a larger school.
I have three important facts
which I wish tn discuss. The. first
is—we could have more extra-
curricular activities. In addition to
our baseball, basketkall and field
hockey teams, we could have a
soccer. a football and a girl's bas-
