26 Taxpayers
District File: Objections
To Proposed N
The school district, supervisors
and 26 taxpayers of Mt. Joy Town-
ship have filed exceptions with the
Lancaster County Court of Quarter
Sessions to the report,of three court
appointed land commissioners which
recommended giving a slice of the
township to West Donegal Town-
ship.
Following a hearing last month,
the commissioners recommended
that the new Harrisburg Pike be
made the new dividing line of the
two townships in the Rheems area,
which is now separated by the old
Harrisburg Pike, jointly owned and
maintained by the two townships.
According to the report’s sugges-
tions, Mt. Joy Township would stand
to lose several hundred acres of
land.
The matter first came before the
Mount Joy, Pa., Thursday
And School
ew Twp. Line
Court last Summer on a petition of
some Rheems and township prop-
erty owner; asking that the village
of Rheems, now divided, be placed
in one or the other of the two town-
ships, preferably in West Donegal,
since that is where the greater part
of the village now lies.
While Mt. Joy Township author-
ities did not so vigorously oppose
losing their portion of Rheems they
did, however, dispute the proposal
to change the boundary to such
great lengths. In changing the old
pike beundary line the entire dis-
tance that it is jointly owned by the
two townships, much more Mt. Joy
Township land than just their
Rheems side of the pike would be
thrown into the other township,
which would then extend all the

Defense officials who cannot be
named said Keller was one of sev-
eral persons being considered for
appointment as a guided missiles
consultant to Marshall. They did
not name any others.
His appointment was made yes-

The fact that Keller's extensive
experience has been in the field of
industrial production brought spec-
ulation that the guided missiles pro-
gram, which has high priority, is
about ready to shift emphasis to
output of weapons. To date, so far
as is known, it has been principally

Two Mount Joy
Boys Get Kick
Reading Bulletin
We are in receipt of the following
letter from Cpl. James W. Eberly,
Air Task Comm. Unit 3-4-3, APO
187 c/o Postmaster, San Francisco,
California.
Saturday, October 14
Dear Mr. Schroll,
I thought you might be interested
in two service men from Mt. Joy
and how glad we are to receive the
Bulletin each week. Even though
the news reaches us a bit late we do
enjoy it very much and read every
line you print
For your information there are
two cf us here on the island of Eni-
wetok from Mt. Joy. Cpl. Ben Hess
from Florin and myself. We met on
the boat coming over and how
strange it was to meet someone who
lived neighbors to me for sometime
and alsn went to school with. We
see each other quite often and just
teday we read The Bulletin together
and had quite a chat. It surely is
nice to be stationed with someone
from town.
Ben left Pope Air Force Base,
South Carolina and T left Olmsted
Air Force Base, Middletown for
Camp Stoneman, California for our
~verseas assignments. We were onlv
there a few days and soon found
~urselves aboard the Gen. E. D.
Patrick (troon transnort) bound for
Fniwetok, Marshall Islands. We ar-
rived here August 29 and again in a
few davs we were hack to dutv.
I'll be looking for a Bulletin
next week, so until then.
Sincerely
JAMES W. EBERLY
